Chapter 2: The Purple Horse (Part 8)
Chapter 2 Purple Horse
The figure that usually appears almost every day has not appeared, and the cuckoo is wondering in his heart. Provide the latest chapters to read> Meng turned around and saw Liu Er and Yan Zi coming with baskets, and quickly put down the household belongings in their hands and greeted them.
"You're busy, don't delay your business." I have never felt nervous when I came by order, but today Liu Er was a little flustered, waved her hand, and said with a smile.
"It's okay, someone is watching for me, how can I leave my sister here alone!" The cuckoo didn't see the abnormality of Liu Er's face, and took a bowl of cold water from the female soldier's hand as usual, and poured it into her stomach in a big gulp as she spoke.
Seeing the cuckoo's appearance of not caring about the sky and the earth, Liu Er immediately returned to normal, walked two steps quickly, grabbed the edge of the bowl, and reprimanded in a low voice, "Genius warm up, be careful not to drink bad stomach!" ”
After shouting for half a morning, the cuckoo was already so thirsty that his throat and eyes were smoking, how could he give up easily, while grabbing the bowl back, he gasped and explained: "It's okay, it's okay, everyone drinks every day and I haven't seen anyone with a bad stomach!" ”
In terms of strength, even if the three Liu clans add up, they can't compare to a cuckoo, and she didn't grab it even after a few robes, so she had to let go of her hand and count angrily: "It's almost the child's mother's person, how can you be so careless about yourself." Once you are trapped in your heart by the cold air, I see how uncomfortable you will be for the rest of your life! ”
"Early?" The cuckoo drank the cold water, handed over the bowl, and patted his flat lower abdomen. "Not so fast, it's only been a few days since we've lived together?"
"In front of so many people, I'm not shy!" Liu rolled his eyes helplessly, scolding like a loving mother.
"Isn't there no outsider?" The cuckoo replied with a dead face.
The two sisters are used to talking and laughing, and neither of them will take it to heart. The female soldiers also knew that the lady of the big boss and the lady of the ninth master were handkerchiefs, and they always had a lot to say about themselves together, so they didn't go forward to join in the fun. It's just that the little maid Yan Zi saw such a big scene for the first time, she was scared and excited, and she didn't know where to stand with her feet. The two eyes are also dripping, and looking around is not enough.
"You don't need to serve here, just come and see each other!" Liu Er knew that the little girl's family was a little lively, so she snatched the basket and ordered with a smile.
"That, that, madam......" Yan Zi relieved himself a little, looked at the Liu family, and looked at the teams marching back and forth on the school ground, not knowing whether he should leave or not.
"If you want to go, you will go! Just don't throw yourself away! The cuckoo couldn't get used to the timid appearance of others, so he stepped forward and patted her on the head, and ordered with a smile.
The little girl was stunned, and immediately understood that this was a friendly gesture, so she gave a shy salute and said in a low voice: "That, that, Mrs. Xie." Xie Qi is in charge! ”
After that, like a frightened deer, he jumped into the pile of female soldiers. Liu Er shook her head behind her, smiled, and whispered to the cuckoo: "I usually hold my horns out, and it's rare to be able to let the wind go once." These kids, hi ......"
From the dress, Du Juan could guess Yan Zi's identity, took Liu Er's words, and responded with a smile, "It's not what my sister is used to, if you want me to say, it's their blessing to be able to keep up with my sister!" ”
"You girl's mouth smeared honey today?!" Liu Er turned around and rolled her eyes angrily.
The two sisters giggled, laughed and talked nonsense between women, and time flew by. It felt like it had only been a moment of effort, and the morning's actual combat simulation drill had come to an end, and the tired minions who had shed their skin heard the order to disband, and scattered the sheep on the ground with a bang, and walked outside the school yard. Du Juan was afraid that Yan Zi would not be able to adapt to this chaotic scene when he first arrived, so he quickly stopped the conversation and summoned two personal female soldiers to order: "Go and see where Madame's maid is?" Don't let people crush her. How many times have these damn killers told them, but they just won't leave the school yard and disperse! ”
"It's not easy to practice like this!" Liu Er glanced at the chaotic crowd on the school grounds, and then smiled and comforted Cuckoo. "At this time last year, it was almost impossible to step on a few at a time! Now, I can still leave a little distance between each other, and I didn't stab my own people with the tip of a spear! ”
"That's right!" The cuckoo shook his head and smiled bitterly. It is not much easier to let a group of rambling minions learn order than it is to let a child learn to walk. Thanks to Cheng Mingzhen, he has been used to seeing this kind of scene since he was a child, and understands that some things need to be done step by step, so he can't be annoyed. If you change to another master to be the head of the sect, even if you don't get angry with the strange bad habits of the minions, you have to be tired to death by some guys who can't teach no matter how you teach.
As they spoke, the two of them had already walked from the periphery of the school field to the inside, carefully searching for Yan Zi's figure from the crowd. When I was looking for something in a hurry, I suddenly heard a little girl crying behind me: "You, you are shameless." Who's coming to see you, it's Madame who wants me to follow her......"
"It's Madame who understands you and thinks I have to be bitter, right, my little heart!" Amid the cacophony of laughter, a man asked in a strange way.
"Get out of here, surnamed Zhou, don't be embarrassed!" Immediately after, the voice of Cuckoo's henchman Hongling came from the crowd, faintly with irrepressible anger.
"Who's surnamed Zhou, which one is surnamed Zhou! Hurry up and stand up and listen to Miss Hongling's reprimand! The strange voice of yin and yang sounded again, provoking more laughter.
Juluze was originally a big bandit den, and the men made some excessive jokes with the women, as long as they didn't make trouble, no one in charge would seriously investigate it. Although it is in the school field at the moment, the training is over, and everyone is happy to let go of their nervous nerves and try to find some fun for themselves.
Hongling came out of the cuckoo's hand, and her temperament also brought the hostess's three-point fierceness. After several reprimands to no avail, he immediately pulled out the knife from his waist and raised his hand to slash forward, "Get out of the way, the sword has no eyes." Whoever messes around again, don't blame me for being unkind! ”
"Roar! You little girl, you actually play martial arts with your uncle. Otherwise, let's compare, whoever wins, will accompany each other for one night! ”
"Okay—" Spectators shouted loudly for fear that the world would not be chaotic.
"It's better than that, who is afraid that you won't succeed!" Hongling, who was forced to the edge of the "cliff", didn't hear the trap in the other party's words at all, threw his cloak back, and responded loudly.
"Then let's talk about it, just tonight!" Provocatively, eyebrows and eyebrows, full of care. "I win, you accompany me, you win, I accompany you!"
Poor Hongling understood some of the tastes at this time, his face turned red, and he raised his knife to split. Although the provocative mouth is cheaper, the hands and feet are very neat, and one side is sideways to let go of the blade. Another barb, the flying foot kicked on the hilt of the knife that was not able to close.
The girl's family was weak, and the horizontal knife was immediately taken off. The people watching the excitement quickly let go of a circle and surrounded the two sides in the center. Hongling's weapon was taken off, but he didn't panic at all, and he fought with a man who dared to speak out with his bare hands. In front of so many people, the man was embarrassed to show his weapon again, so he simply left his hands empty, his fists and feet, saw the moves, and from time to time he was still talking nonsense, verbally taking advantage of the other party.
At this time, the little girl Yan Zi became a bystander, and would only stand in the circle crying and wiping her tears. Both male and female minions refused to give her any sympathy, and slapped their hands one after another, cheering loudly for both sides.
Hongling is a girl after all, and her endurance is far less durable than that of men. After dismantling more than 20 moves, sweat immediately oozed from the tip of his nose. The man she was fighting had the upper hand, but he didn't want to end the contest so quickly. While continuing to talk about flowers, he showed off his skills, and he didn't give up without taking advantage of it. Seeing this, the minions who were watching the excitement around felt more and more enjoyable, jumping and slapping their hands and shouting, "Catch her!" Catch her there! "Alas, this kick is ruthless enough, cut off your children and grandchildren!" , lest the world be chaotic.
Patience with Liu's side, the cuckoo has not come forward to support the personal maid. After all, the man who fought with her was Zhang Hu, the righteous son of Zhang Jin, who had not been recognized for a long time, and whether he was close or not, he could be regarded as half of the Liu family's son. But seeing that Zhang Hu had the upper hand and had to gain an inch, all the tricks were going to the taboo of the girl's house, and the fire in his heart was hooked. Hearing the foul language shouted by the minions around him, he couldn't bear it, raised his foot and kicked a few unlucky bastards in front of him, and shouted: "Get out of the way, I want to see who is so capable today." Ryoko, stand down. I'll take over the rest of the field for you! ”
Hongling had already lost no more, but he hated the other party for being immoral, so he insisted on it. Suddenly heard his familiar voice outside the field, his eyes turned red, and he covered his face and ran down. Zhang Jin's righteous son Zhang Hu was having a good time, and he didn't feel that the atmosphere outside the venue suddenly became quiet, and when he saw the other party crying and running away, where was he willing to let go, he chased after him with his teeth and claws.
Less than five steps after chasing, a pair of embroidered shoes suddenly appeared in front of him. Red, red, green, and green, very beautiful. Before Zhang Hu could see the pattern on the upper of the shoe clearly, the nose and chest had already made intimate contact with the sole. Kicked black, kicked, kicked, kicked six or seven steps backwards, and fell into the crowd with his back to the sky.
"Who is so lacking in virtue!" He was kicked down without even seeing the opponent's appearance clearly, but he didn't feel ashamed at all. still screamed fancy, "Who, which girl is so heartless." You don't have to be in such a hurry to rob a man, Lao Tzu ...... today"
Before he could finish speaking, the minions who were holding him next to him "hula" and all dispersed. Zhang Hu, who had lost his support, fell to the ground again and fell straight to the ground. This time, he finally felt that something was wrong, got up with difficulty, and groaned, "Isn't it just a play?" Can you use it so hard? That is, my body is strong, change the bone frame......"
"Is it more than that? If you win, I'll give you Hongling and Yan Zi together as your wife. If you lose, find a piece of tofu and kill yourself! "The Jade Rakshasa Cuckoo has not been powerful for a long time, and the sudden change makes everyone extremely uncomfortable. But after thinking about what the cuckoo's nickname was, no one dared to say anything. The timid tiptoe out of the school yard, and the bold lowered his head, pretending not to hear anything, not to see anything.
Zhang Hu knew who he had angered this time, and secretly called bad luck in his heart. wiped the nosebleed on his face with his hand, and responded pitifully: "Sister-in-law, who am I your opponent?" Besides, you are the wife of Little Brother Jiu, and it is not in line with etiquette for me to do it with you! ”
The Jade Rakshasa Cuckoo glared at him and asked sharply, "Blame us." Let's talk about the two of us. Do you know that Hongling is my personal maid? Since you dare to beat her, why should my sister-in-law take it seriously! ”
Before Zhang Hu was called a moth by Zhang Jin, he used to hang behind Cheng Mingzhen every day, of course he knew what Hongling's identity was. But he is also rising now, and he doesn't have to pay more respect to a little female soldier. Besides, today's incident is clearly Hongling's knife pulled out first, no matter how good his temper is, there is no reason to stand and be cut?
Thinking of this, Zhang Hu wiped his nosebleed again and painted his face red, "Sister-in-law, what does sister-in-law mean by this." Look, brothers, it was your maid who bullied me first! ”
After all, he wanted to find someone to testify against him. Helplessly, the guys around them are afraid that the world will not be chaotic when they watch the excitement, but at this moment, they are afraid of bringing the disaster to their heads. turned their faces sideways one by one, and no one refused to say a "fair word" for him!
"According to what you said, my majesty was not strict and connived at the maid to bully you?" The cuckoo's temperament has always been to eat soft rather than hard. If Zhang Hu said two good words, for the sake of everyone getting along well in the past, this matter will be revealed today. However, after Zhang Hu entered Zeze, he saw a completely different cuckoo, and he didn't know where the name of the Jade Rakshasa came from, so he didn't know how to be soft, and he argued forcefully: "I didn't say that." It's just that whoever has a knife on the ground, everyone can see it! ”
"Okay, then you sue her for armed murder. Go to the second boss to sue. Then tell the second boss why she used a knife to cut you! Seeing Zhang Hu's endless strong arguments, Du Juan's face turned white with anger. If the other party was someone else, she would have used a knife to reason a long time ago. Whether it's right or wrong, count it after you're convinced. It's just that the other party is Zhang Jincheng's righteous son, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, not to mention that the Liu family is standing next to him.
"It's not going to get into that way!" Zhang Hu started sideways, trying not to meet the sharp gaze of the cuckoo. At this moment, he was not on a firm footing, knowing that even if he went to the second master, Xue Song, no one would stand up for him. Besides, the big boss Zhang Jin said that he had always had high hopes for him, if he walked to the back village with a blue nose and swollen face, and told his father-in-law that he was beaten down by a woman, I am afraid that not only will he not be able to get justice, but he will beg for a beating.
The personal maid was molested in public, and Liu's face was already so angry that his face turned black. Without waiting for the two to continue arguing, he took a few steps forward, pointed at Zhang Hu and scolded: "Let's go, why didn't you plant it." Why did she cut you? You'd better be clear! The second master is the most fair, maybe he will support you and let you go directly to my room to take Yan Zi home! ”
"I'm just joking around with her!" Zhang Hu can't afford to provoke Du Juan, and he doesn't have the courage to provoke Liu. Although the Liu family has now fallen out of favor, who can explain the affairs between men and women clearly. If one day Zhang Da Dang loses interest in the two newcomers and thinks of Liu's old stove, wouldn't he find himself unlucky?
"I know, there are some things I shouldn't say!" Glancing at the dejected Zhang Hu, and then at the cuckoo with a cold face like frost, Liu's wit, sighed, and counted in a low voice, "The so-called closest relatives are not father and son." You are the righteous son of the big boss, I am just a lady, I may have to look at your face in the future, I shouldn't offend you anyway. ”
"But you also have to be a little bit measured, know what you can do and what you can't. Yan Zi, no matter how bad she is, she is also my personal maid. You drill into my room when you're fine, are you giving your stepfather a long face? Or is it that my aunt is not capable? ”
At this time, Zhang Hu was even more speechless. Speaking from his heart, he did something to Yan Zi, it was just a bad habit he developed when he was a servant in Guantao County, and he was not prepared to do anything to the woman. But as soon as he was counted down by the Liu family, he became pampered and arrogant, bullying his stepmother. Once the words got out, Zhang Jin said that no matter how anxious he was, he had to have that face. I'm afraid that his position as a moth son is not even hot, and he will become a headless corpse!
As the so-called heroes don't suffer immediate losses, they are big husbands who can bend and stretch. Knowing that he would definitely not be able to bargain today, Zhang Hu turned over and stood up, and slammed it to the ground, "Auntie, don't say that, I have no ill will towards Miss Yan Zi." It's just that everyone is used to joking in Qianzhai, and they don't have a door on their mouths. So when I arrived in the back village, I didn't notice any taboos for a while, and I always liked to talk nonsense. If my aunt and Miss Yan Zi don't like it, I'll change it in the future. Please don't be angry, it's not worth it to be angry for me, bastard! ”
After a few words, he was not only convinced, but also lightly pushed the mistakes he had made. Even in the ears of Liu Er, a clever person, I have to admire his intelligence. raised his eyes and looked at the cuckoo, and now the other party has no intention of continuing to investigate. Liu had no choice but to sigh and said in a low voice: "Don't blame me for saying that you are heavy. After all, we are all villagers in Guantao County, and our feelings are extraordinary. If you really like Yan Zi, go to the front of the battle to fight more beautiful battles, since ancient times, beauties love heroes. At that time, her ears will be filled with your name every day, and even if she refuses to do so, her heart will will. But if you know that you just say beautiful things, you don't have half of what you do that you can put on the table. In the future, even if you ask her to go to the big boss, she may not look up to you in her heart! ”
After scolding Zhang Hu, he turned around and took Yan Zi's hand again, and told with a smile: "Okay, don't cry!" You heard what I said. You also fight for some anger yourself, and whoever dares to do anything to you in the future will directly use a knife to cut you. The weaker the girl's family, the easier it is to be bullied! ”
The little girl Yan Zi didn't expect that her affairs would get such a big battle, and let a master and a lady stand out for herself. I was scared and moved, and I wiped my tears and agreed. After such a "lively", Liu Er obviously lost the mind to continue watching the afternoon training, and after saying hello to Du Juan, she left with Yan Zi.
Now that one of the two parties has left, there is no need for Du Juan to continue to entangle with Zhang Hu. glanced at him, and left with Ziling, Hongxia and other maids. didn't make a fuss in vain with a fox, Zhang Hu regretted it so much that he even had the idea of jumping into the lake. In the afternoon, the training was out of shape, and he said that he had greeted the corporal under his command, and even he couldn't tell the flag and the drum. Fortunately, Cheng Mingzhen had already been told what happened during the break, and he didn't pursue it too much, so he casually made an excuse for Zhang Hu and ordered him to go back to rest in advance.
At night, the cuckoo is still full of fire. After taking a bath, while waiting for Cheng Mingzhen to change his clothes, he counted angrily: "There is such a big movement at noon, you don't even come to take a look." What if that kid doesn't know how to advance or retreat, let's really mess with him in the back village? ”
"Didn't you knock everyone down? What am I going to do again? Cheng Mingzhen gently patted Du Juan's hand away and responded with a smile, "Go up and help you make up a few punches, and beat him for a long time?" Or go up and deal with it impartially, so that everyone can't step down? ”
"That's just as well!" The cuckoo pursed his lips and smiled. The matter is related to the big boss Zhang Jin, who said that if Cheng Mingzhen came forward, the two sides would not end well. Like the one born at the time, she was upset with her maid and beat up the womanizer. After that, he was beaten and complained facelessly, and Zhang Jin said that there was no need to pursue it. The whole thing ended here, and both sides were quiet.
Thinking of this, her anger disappeared, and her eyes slowly became gentle. Unexpectedly, Cheng Mingzhen sighed and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid this matter is not as simple as it seems." Do you remember what Liu Er said at that time? It's not just to teach Zhang Hu a lesson! ”
"What did she say?" Cheng Mingzhen didn't mention it, and Du Juan really forgot about Liu Er's words. Thinking about it at the moment, I feel that it is indeed a bit abnormal. It stands to reason that Yan Zi was bullied, and the Liu family should have come out early, why did he wait until he couldn't suppress the fire before he came out to help?
But if Liu Er wants to use herself to deal with Zhang Hu, the situation is not very reliable. After all, Liu Er is fighting for the position of the harem, and one more help outside will give him more certainty, so there is really no need to make a feud with Zhang Hu for such a trivial matter!
Thinking about it, the cuckoo thought about it so much that his brain hurt, and he didn't figure out what was hidden in it. Cheng Mingzhen's face became more solemn, sighed, and said quietly, "I'm afraid that the peaceful days in Zedi have come to an end!" The big boss has a life-saving grace for me, and he really wants to be suspicious of me......"
"You mean Sister Liu'er is reminding us?" The cuckoo was so frightened that he covered Cheng Mingzhen's mouth and shouted in a low voice. Seeing that there was no one else around, she lowered her hand and asked in a very low voice, "How can this be?" Haven't we already made a lot of concessions? We've merged our two stockades into one, so why isn't he enough? ”
"People?!" Cheng Mingzhen sighed with emotion. Back then, he didn't expect that Lin County Ling would take action to inflict harm, but he almost couldn't save his life. The so-called once bitten by a snake, three years afraid of the well rope. After experiencing the same thing once, the second time it will wake up a lot, and as long as there is a disturbance, you can immediately feel the signs.
How to deal with the signs of awakening? It's a bit of a headache to think about. Zhang Jin said that he was kind to himself, and if the two sides got angry, no matter whether he won or lost, it would definitely be difficult for him to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes in the future. Putting aside this layer, even if it is not at ease in people's hearts, at the moment, Zhang Jincheng is pressing step by step, but Du Scarqi is thinking about the friendship between old buddies and constantly asking his daughter and son-in-law to back down. Weng's son-in-law is still like this, and the attitudes of the other leaders of Juluze can be imagined. When it really comes to the day when water and fire are incompatible, I am afraid that except for Du Scar, the rest of the leaders in Zedi, whether they want to or not, will stand on Zhang Jincheng's side.
"What should I do, you're talking!" The cuckoo was anxious, and seeing that Cheng Mingzhen was only sighing, he couldn't help but urge in a low voice.
Cheng Mingzhen shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I hope I am too careful, it stands to reason, what is wrong with Mrs. Liu, she should also help her husband, not us!" But everything needs to be prepared in advance, and from tomorrow, our village will double the number of night patrols. Adjust the team, put those who are not close to us on the periphery as much as possible, and follow you as much as possible to the side. In addition, you urge the brothers who go out to find out what is going on outside the Ze to hurry up. One day, there will be no room in the land, so we have to have a place to go! I don't want to mess with the big boss, but I can't let him slaughter him. It's really not good, just like you said, let's go, find someone to hide in the mountain, and escape this troubled world with the treasure in our hands! ”
Thousands of thoughts gathered together, and the cuckoo's face became more and more pale when he heard it. Go outside and set up a stockade and play your own banner? She had never thought of such a complicated thing that way, but for the sake of her husband, she had to do it. "Is it too late? Grandpa too, he said that he was on top of him in the back village, and he didn't see him make a move! ”
"I estimate that even if the big boss is dissatisfied with me, as long as I can't find anything wrong, he won't be able to do anything wrong for a while." Cheng Mingzhen laughed bitterly a few times and continued to confess to Du Juan. "He is busy with the king now, and he will post all over the green forest and invite many heroes to come and cheer up. If you come to a nest before becoming king, it will be very ugly on the face. So, we should have some buffer time. You won't be cornered right away. And, maybe after becoming king, the big boss has a new goal, and he won't toss us anymore! ”
"Hmm!" The cuckoo nodded slightly. She was in a state of turmoil right now, and she couldn't judge the situation at all. But with her knowledge of Ms. Zhang's past, she believes her husband's analysis makes sense. Julu Ze has already died several big bosses in a daze. The next stepping stone for others to climb up should never be their own husband!
"We don't have to do it, it's just that we have to be prepared! It's better than just waiting for a disaster! Afraid that the cuckoo would be too worried about being seen, Cheng Mingzhen patted her again and comforted her with a smile.
"I know!" The cuckoo smiled miserably and compared his fingers to their chests. You know, I know, if she can't even trust her husband in this world, she doesn't know what else she can believe?
