Chapter 23: Master Xuantong
The sergeant replied, "Yes! Humble duty understands. ”
Wang Qing asked again: "Why don't I search this room too?" ”
Yu Qing and the others were shocked, thinking that they had fallen for him, and when they were about to draw their swords, they suddenly heard the sergeant say: "Don't dare to be humble!" General please! ”
Wang Qing waved his hand and said, "Go!" You can't let go of any of them, search carefully! ”
The sergeant took people to search other rooms, and Yu Qing and the three of them finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Qing returned to the room, closed the door, and after a pillar of incense, the officers and soldiers finally left. Wang Qing said: "Brother Yu, now that the searchers have left, without further ado, we will immediately go out of the city at night, the city gate is heavily guarded, I will hang you from the city wall with a rope." ”
Yu Qing nodded, followed Wang Qing out of the inn, and quietly came to the edge of the city wall, only to see Wang Qing open a basket, take out a rope from it, put one end of the rope on the basket, and said: "I have arranged for a carriage to wait in the woods outside the city, I will use the rope to let you down, go straight to the woods behind after going down, and leave this place as soon as possible after finding the carriage." ”
Zhao Kuangyan and Xiang Boy were petite, and Wang Qing and Yu Qing first put them in a basket and hung them down the city wall. After they landed on the ground, Yu Qing said goodbye to Wang Qing: "General Wang, I dare not thank you for your great grace today, the green mountains will not change, the green water will flow for a long time, and there will be a period in the future!" ”
Wang Qing held Yu Qing's hand and said, "Take care, brother, there will be a period in the future, let's go!" ”
Yu Qing grabbed the rope and quickly slid down the city wall. Wang Qingmu sent the three of them to the woods outside the city, and after half a pillar of incense, seeing that no one had found them, he burned the rope and basket and threw them off the city wall.
Besides, after Yu Qing and the others got into the carriage that Wang Qing had prepared for them, they didn't dare to stop at all, and galloped towards the northwest all night. Running all the way, I don't know how long it took, the sleepy Yu Qing and the three fell asleep in the car unconsciously......
A crisp birdsong woke up from his sleep, he rubbed his eyes, stretched his waist, yawned, and saw that Zhao Kuangyan and Xiang Boy were sleeping soundly, Zhao Kuangyan smacked his mouth, and a trace of clear saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth. Yu Qing smiled slightly, did not wake them up, gently opened the curtains, at this time the horses were already walking slowly, the early morning sun slanted in from the car window, it was extraordinarily soft and warm, the cherry blossoms in the forest were in full bloom, the morning breeze was blowing, fragrant and fragrant, there were still some unmelted snow on the high mountains in the distance, shining silver under the sun, gorgeous and dazzling, this scene was refreshing, Yu Qing had forgotten last night's desperate run to the clouds.
Coachman: "Yu! Then the horse stopped, and the coachman removed the pole and led the horse to the grass to graze.
Yu Qing got out of the car and greeted the coachman, this person was a little familiar, and the coachman also recognized Yu Qing, and first shouted out: "Master, it's you!" ”
Yu Qing also recognized that this person was the coachman they hired three months ago, Yu Qing greeted: "Uncle, hello! ”
At this time, Zhao Kuangyan and Xiang Boy had also gotten out of the carriage. The coachman said: "Lord Wang gave me ten silver, let the little old man pick up people in the woods, last night in a hurry, and the light is not good, I didn't recognize a few young masters, you are really the little old man's nobles!" ”
Yu Qing said: "I'm sorry for you!" ”
Zhao Kuangyan stretched his waist and asked, "Where are we here?" ”
The coachman said: "We have gone out of the Hebei border and have reached the Shanxi border. ”
The coachman took out a small iron pot and some rice from the carriage's box, lit a fire in the clearing, went to the brook to get some water, mixed the rice in the pot, and boiled it on the firewood.
The grass in the forest is fresh and tender, and after half an hour, the horses have eaten almost enough, and the rice in the pot is cooked, and the aroma of the rice is mixed with the rich fragrance of flowers, which makes people have a great appetite.
Everyone folded a few small branches as chopsticks and sat around the fire for breakfast. Zhao Kuangyan said: "Uncle, if we hire your carriage in the future, settle the bill on a monthly basis, and pay five silver cars a month, what do you think?" ”
Of course, the coachman was very happy, and said: "It is really my honor for the little old man to serve the three masters, how dare I take your money!" ”
Yu Qing said: "The old man is polite, so it's decided." ”
After the group of four had breakfast, the coachman led the horse to the stream to drink water, took out the water bladder and stored some water, set up the carriage, and continued on the road. Last night, the coachman was in a hurry all the way, and after breakfast, he was a little sleepy, and he fell on the seat of the car and began to nap, so Yu Qing asked him to go to the carriage to rest and come to catch the carriage by himself.
When it was almost noon, I came to a mountain pass, where the terrain was treacherous, dense forests, and frightened birds flew in the forest, as if there was an ambush. Yu Qing suddenly became alert, and while catching the car, he watched the movement in front of him, not daring to be careless at all.
As expected, as soon as he walked to the mountain pass, more than a dozen masked men suddenly jumped out of the woodland on the side of the road. I saw that the big man led by him resisted the ghost-headed big knife, blocked the way of Yu Qing and the others, and shouted: "I opened this road, I planted this tree, I want to pass through here, and leave the money to buy the road." ”
Yu Qing took a look, and saw that the people blocking the way were all bald, with incense scars on their heads, obviously dressed as monks, but they were also masked, which was really a little abrupt, and he secretly thought: "In this year, did the monk also come out to rob?" ”
The movement outside the car woke up Zhao Kuangyan and the three people in the car, and knew that they had encountered robbers, so they held the guy in their hands. Zhao Kuangyan jumped out of the car, and when he saw the robbers, he couldn't help but scold: "You dead bald donkeys, don't eat fasting and chant Buddha in the Buddha hall, but come here to rob the house, aren't you afraid that the Buddha will condemn you and send you to the eighteenth layer of hell?" ”
A robber shouted: "Stinky boy, shut your stinky mouth, and those who know each other will obediently leave all the silver and valuable things on your body, maybe the old men can spare your life, otherwise, hehe!" Don't blame the old men for being merciless."
Yu Qing also jumped out of the car, and Zhao Kuangyan saw that the other party was overwhelmed and asked Yu Qing what to do. Yu Qing said: "Don't panic, act at the opportunity!" ”
Seeing that Yu Qing and the others showed no signs of surrendering, the robbers led by a wave of their big swords, "Give it to me!" All the thieves raised their guys and rushed towards Yu Qing and the others.
Yu Qing had already pulled out his sword, and the other three also showed their swords one after another, and for a while, the soldiers saw each other, shouting and killing, and the sound of swords hitting each other was a great ping-pong masterpiece. The coachman also had some skills, and he could knock down a robber with a few strokes of a horsewhip.
The thieves swarmed up, and Zhao Kuangyan and Xiang Boyer leaned back to the carriage and fought the enemy together. And Yu Qing rushed left and right among the thieves, and he was at ease, only to see his body smart, sword flowers flying, and from time to time robbers were hit, letting out bursts of screams.
At this moment, a robber with a spear went around the back of the carriage and stabbed Zhao Kuangyan in the back through the carriage crossbar. Seeing this, Yu Qing shouted: "Brother Zhao be careful!" ”
However, at this time, Zhao Kuangyan was attacked by the enemy on his back, and he had no time to dodge and avoid. said that it was too late and that time was fast, only to see Yu Qing rushing towards Zhao Kuangyan and pushing Zhao Kuangyan away. Zhao Kuangyan fell to the ground, and Yu Qing's right back was pierced by the spear, and half of the tip of the spear pierced into his back, a heart-piercing pain struck, Yu Qing endured the huge pain, and slashed down with a backhand sword, instantly splitting the thief's face in half.
Seeing that Yu Qing was injured, the other thieves besieged him, Yu Qing gritted his teeth, his eyes flashed with a terrible red light, he raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, pulled out the spear on his back, and threw it at the bandit leader. His throw, almost poured into the potential of the body that burst out instantly, not to mention the body of the flesh, even the copper wall and iron wall are afraid that they can't withstand such a great penetration, I saw that the spear flew like lightning towards the bandit leader, the robber leader didn't even have time to snort, a spear had already passed through his chest, and a robber behind him didn't have time to dodge, and he was also hit, and the spear pierced into his abdomen, piercing a few inches from his back.
