The jade gate is closed, and there is a dark red that cannot be washed away for thousands of years after the blood is infected with blood outside the city wall.

On the city wall, sparsely stood soldiers on duty.

Lu Zhao dismounted outside the city wall and stood in place for a long time. He looked at the Great Wall, which had no end in sight to the left and right, like the legendary dragon, and couldn't help but admire in his heart: The wisdom and ability of the Han nation are really unimaginable.

It is no wonder that the people of the village are full of yearning for the Great Wall from birth to death, and it can indeed give people a strong sense of spiritual dependence.

On either side of the gate, two rows of soldiers stood checking the entry and exit of the people, making sure they did not bring contraband in or out. In order to weaken the power of the Xiongnu, many supplies were under embargo.

The three of them walked to the gate of the city and were interrogated according to the rules. One of the soldiers reached out and touched the longbow that Lu Zhao was carrying, and Lu Zhao subconsciously turned around, and a trace of murderous aura appeared in his eyes.

"Huh?"

The surrounding soldiers suddenly surrounded them, and they were the most sensitive to murderous aura after a long battle.

The leading soldier even drew his waist knife and pointed at Lu Zhao. He was sure that he didn't feel wrong, and that there was a difference between anger and murder. People with a fiery temperament will exude anger, but those who have killed people are called murderous.

Lu Zhao took a deep breath, knowing that he was too nervous.

"Lay down your arms." The lead soldier shouted.

The sparse crowd of people who came in and out all froze and looked in the direction of Lu Zhao.

It's been a long, long time since anyone made trouble at the city gate, and the soldiers on duty here are all elite veterans, who have killed people on the battlefield and can still walk down alive. There were some recruits in the city, but a war had just passed, and there were no real recruits.

Seeing the soldiers who were holding their weapons tightly and staring at them tightly, Lu Zhao raised his hands to show that he was not threatening, and said apologetically: "Staying outside the plug for too long, the body's instinctive reaction. ”

But these soldiers still stared at him, unmoved.

The girl who had been following Lu Zhao walked up and said to the leader of the soldiers: "My name is Zhao Lingyun, the daughter of Zhao Heihu, the head of the Wanli Dart Bureau. The two of them saved my life on the steppe and killed four Hun soldiers. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar around. Their eyes when they looked at Lu Zhao and Yu Zhan were full of admiration. Four Hun heads, that's worth a lot of money.

Similarly, the leader of the soldiers was also shocked, not to kill four people, but to the embarrassed woman in front of him turned out to be Zhao Heihu's daughter. You must know that the dart board has a close relationship with the green forest bandits, the heroes of the rivers and lakes and the government. Even some Jianghu rangers live in a dart bureau after entering the city, and theoretically the government will not arrest people. Because of the famous dart game, there is a lot of backing behind it. For example, in the Wanli Dart Game that can dart inside and outside the side plug, it is their General Cao standing behind it!

The most important thing is that when Zhao Heihu took the dart bureau and his party to escort the goods out of the customs, he also conducted an investigation. This eldest lady escaped back, but the rest of the people?

He didn't dare to think about it!

"Let's go inside."

The leader of the soldiers waved his hand, not even daring to ask more.

The water above the court is unfathomable, and the border pass can still drown the old king.

"Where are we staying?"

After entering the city, he walked and walked. Yu Zhan stopped and asked a head-scratching question.

Lu Zhao turned around and was also stunned. yes, this is in the city, where do you live? Thinking that the two brothers have no friends, no relatives, and no money in this city.

"If you don't mind, you can go to my house first. Anyway, there's not much of anyone there. Zhao Lingyun lowered her head, and her voice was full of sadness.

"This, it's not appropriate, right?" Lu Zhao hesitated, he had long heard that the children of the rivers and lakes did not take the defense of men and women very seriously. But he and Yu Zhan are two young men who go to other girls' houses, which makes other people's parents think.

"My life was saved by the two of you, so what if you were left to spend the night?" Zhao Lingyun said generously.

"We don't have a place to live." Yu Zhan secretly pulled Lu Zhao and whispered, "Brother Zhao, didn't you really go to sleep in the bridge cave?" ”

"Bridge Cave."

Lu Zhao scratched his head, blinked his eyes and hesitated for a while, and finally reluctantly nodded in agreement.

Zhao Lingyun then walked to the front to lead the way, and said in her heart that this man is really strange, why does it seem that she forced him to follow him home?

After crossing three avenues and two alleys, a small courtyard appeared in front of them. Zhao Lingyun took two steps forward, and took out a key from the foot of the stone lion on the side of the door. Turning around, he opened the courtyard door.

"Come in."

Zhao Lingyun pushed open the door and beckoned, his eyes were gloomy when he saw the sandbags and weapon racks in the yard.

Yu Zhan tied his horse to the tree at the door and walked into the yard first. Looking at the weapon shelves placed and the eighteen weapons on it, his eyes lit up and he said, "What do you do, why are there so many weapons." Doesn't it mean that the private sector can't hold it? ”

"This is the border pass, not the Central Plains. The people who still live here and have not moved away, whose parents do not have swords. Zhao Lingyun explained this fact in a very flat voice, where the border is, all the people are soldiers. Picking up a hoe to be a farmer and pulling out a long knife is a fierce general, and this kind of thing is not uncommon here.

Lu Zhao didn't step forward, he held the tail of the longbow on his back, thinking in his heart that the cry he shouted before killing 'Murderer, Han Lu Zhao' didn't seem to be as domineering as the big generals in the story he heard when he was a child.

Zhao Lingyun stroked the weapon rack, and involuntarily appeared in front of her father covered in blood. Even though the blood stained the white robe into a red robe, the man still held the long knife and did not retreat. Only shouted to her at the last moment: "Lingyun, no matter what, live." ”

Stay alive!

Zhao Lingyun narrowed her eyes, they were going for the government this time. It is said that the nobles of the Central Plains wanted to marry a princess to the grassland, and they went to deliver tokens, but what they didn't expect was to be surrounded and killed by a group of Hun soldiers who were obviously prepared halfway. If it weren't for her father and several uncles fighting to the death, she wouldn't even have the chance to rush out on horseback at the end.

The last thing I saw when I turned my head was the blood on the ground that filled my eyes, and the hideous and terrifying facial expressions.

Zhao Lingyun closed her eyes, her eyelids fluttered, but she said in a calm voice: "There is no rice or firewood at home, and there is a little money in the house, which is enough for us to maintain for a while." ”

Yu Zhan immediately said, "I'll go chop wood." ”

After speaking, he squeezed his eyes towards Lu Zhao.

Lu Zhao had no choice but to say helplessly: "Then I'll go buy rice." "I want to chat with more like-minded people about "Beacon Dragon City", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chats about life, and looks for confidants~
