XVIII The Manor

A terrible wail sounded, which was terrifying, Liu Ce pulled out the tip of the gun that pierced the thief's chest, and then flung it, the blood droplets on the gun were scattered everywhere, and more than a dozen thieves' corpses on the ground were lying horizontally, and several thieves who were not dead were constantly twisting their bodies and panting.

Yang Kaishan stood in the most central position, posing in what he thought was the most majestic shape, with a heavy ghost head knife on his shoulder; Yang on the side turned the hammer in his hand with great interest, with a smile on the corner of his mouth; Feng Ying was guarding Qing's sister-in-law Bao'er, and the hands that were clenching the copper hammer at this moment finally let go; Sister-in-law Qing hugged Bao'er in her arms and covered her eyes with her hands, for fear that she would see blood.

Liu Ce finished wiping the head of the gun, walked towards the mule cart in front of him, and when he passed by Yang Kaishan's side, he didn't know where to find a piece of hay and stuffed it into the corner of his mouth, Yang Kaishan didn't react, just holding the hay in his hand and looking at the bag on the mule cart with a smile on his face.

After more than ten days together, the group gradually became familiar with each other, and the atmosphere was not as awkward as before. This time, seeing that the grain was about to run out, Liu Ce took the initiative to propose a cameo appearance as a bandit to rob the thief transport team, and after two days of exploration, he seized such an opportunity with a greater chance of victory - successfully attacked the grain transport team of twelve people.

"Tsk, it's all potatoes, sweet potatoes, and some white rice, yo! Come and see, there is still half a packet of salt, it seems that at least for a few months we will not have to worry about our belly! Yang Youhuai couldn't wait to open the bag in the car, which was full of urgently needed rations.

"Huzi!" Liu Ce shouted, and a boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old jumped out of the woods on the side, wearing a green cloth shirt, bare-chested, holding a plum blossom stick in his hand, looking like a tiger, staring at Liu Ce with his eyes, and after a while, he said: "If Lao Tzu hadn't been strained, these people would have fallen down ......" Before he finished speaking, Liu Ce stepped forward and kicked him aside.

"Don't be poor, hurry up and pack your things and hit the road!" Liu Ce also has a headache for this guy.

The real name of this Huzi is Liu Hu, and he is the servant of the young master of a local landlord's family. After the thieves broke through Gaoyang City, the local landlords also suffered, the whole family of Huzi's employer was killed, only he escaped by luck, fleeing everywhere, a few days ago he and a group of refugees were surrounded by a team of dozens of thieves, fortunately Liu Ce and his party rescued them after killing the thieves, so Liu Hu followed with a dead face, Liu Ce Yang Kaishan saw that he was strong, and he took him on the road together. I don't want this guy to be a safe master, he always loves to brag and talk nonsense, and when he really sees blood, he immediately hides without a trace, and after the crisis, he appears in front of everyone like a dragon and a tiger and brags about himself, which makes Liu Ce and them speechless for a while, but fortunately, in addition to being timid, the others are also decent, and they don't do anything out of the ordinary, let him do whatever he wants, because of his love for Kan, he often makes everyone laugh, and even Bao'er is rarely teased by him and smiles.

Huzi skillfully bundled more than a dozen bags of grain on the car, carried two bags and loaded them into Qingsao's car, and then picked up the weapons dropped by the thieves on the ground and threw them on the car, picked up the fast whip used to drive the horse and sat on the mule cart, and shook it hard in the air, "crack~crack~" The sound of breaking the air resounded through the world......

"Look at my horse stepping on the company camp, breaking the thief!" After Huzi finished boasting, he drove the mule cart all the way, Feng Ying rode a horse behind him, his face full of scars couldn't help twitching, and Yang Youhuai came to Liu Ce and Yang Kaishan: "What kind of goods did you two come in?" ”

"Evil, ......" Yang Kaishan spit out such a sentence in the face of his cousin's complaining for a long time, Liu Ce was also helpless, this Liu Hu is really a living treasure-level character, but in this troubled world, he can still be so "fearless (no heart) and optimistic (no lungs)", which shows that his psychological quality is also a strong horse.

"Brother Yang, Lao Feng, there is a Zhuangzi in front, there seems to be someone, I will go and investigate, if you can, we will rest there for one night tonight." After about two hours, a Zhuangzi appeared in the distance, smoking from the cooking, Liu Ce planned to investigate, and said to Yang Kaishan and Feng Ying. "I'll go with you, Brother Liu." Yang Youhuai has also had a good impression of Liu Ce after getting along in the past few days, and he knows that Liu Ce is a few days older than him, so he also calls Brother Liu and Brother Liu non-stop.

"No need, Brother Yang, you can find a secluded place to hide first, Sister-in-law Qing Bao'er still needs you to take care of her, I'll go back when I go." After speaking, he hugged his fists with Yang Youhuai, Yang Kaishan and others, and squinted at him when he passed in front of Huzi's car.

"What? What do you want? Huzi felt that Liu Ce looked at him with bad intentions in his eyes, and nervously held a stick to protect his chest.

"General Liu, now you and I will go to the Matao Company Camp." Liu Ce glanced at him playfully and mocked.

"Forget it, General Ben is here to give you the rear of the palace, to ensure that you have no worries, you can rest assured...... Do...... Wow...... Let me go...... Lao Tzu is not going! Before he finished bragging, Liu Ce lifted him up immediately.

"Brother Liu, be careful, we will wait for you in this riverside grove." Yang Kaishan thought about Liu Ce's previous words and made sense, Sister-in-law Qing's mother and daughter still need someone to take care of them, just in case, and Liu Ce's skills are even more speechless, he was not convinced before, and compared with him, but he could only take ten moves and was forced to retreat by his unpredictable marksmanship, and his brain is a few better than his own, so there should be no problem with this.

Liu Ce carried the tiger to the Zhuangzi slowly, and when he approached, Liu Ce dismounted and the tiger prostrate behind a small hill and looked, and saw that the huge Zhuangzi was full of figures floating, judging from the costumes, it should be just a homeless person, not like a bandit or a thief's nest. "Stay here and don't move." Liu Ce said hello to Huzi and quietly walked around the hill towards Zhuangzi......

When Liu Ce walked to the gate of the village, several people on the village shouted in horror, and after a while, dozens of ragged homeless people holding various kinds of utensils rushed to the gate of the village under the leadership of a bald giant man wearing iron leaf armor and holding a long-handled axe.

"One person and one shot dare to run Zhuangzi to rob! Believe it or not, Lao Tzu screwed your neck off! The bald head came out of the queue and stood at the front to look at Liu Ce, but after a glance, he froze and said, "It's you?"

Liu Ce looked at the big man with a huge body, and always felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, and was about to speak, when he saw the bald head swinging an axe and roaring angrily, attacking Liu Ce.

Liu Ce only felt a gust of wind swept in front of him, hurriedly retreated a few steps to avoid the axe, the spear stabbed back a little, the bald head flashed sideways, the body of the gun almost touched the face, Liu Ce saw that the gun failed, changed the stab to sweep, and the gun body swept towards the bald face. I don't want the bald head to be very flexible, although the person is tall and big, but the body is very flexible, and he flashes on his back to avoid this sweep, Liu Ce's shot is in the air again, but he sees the bald head axe swept and slashed over......

Liu Ce held the gun in his backhand, the tip of the gun stabbed obliquely into the ground and jumped up with his strength, avoiding this fatal blow......

The bald head shouted, the big axe spun sideways again, Liu Ce felt that the axe momentum was like an overwhelming mountain, it could not be shaken, the body of the gun quickly rotated across the waist and retreated, and when the axe weakened, a shot was stabbed out again, and he didn't want the bald head to stop the axe unbelievably and block the axe towards his chest, only to hear the sound of "ding", Liu Ce and the bald head each took a few steps back, and the surrounding homeless people were dumbfounded......

"Stop fighting, stop!" Just when Liu Ce and the bald head were about to fight again, there was a scolding from Zhuangkou, and a young man in leather armor was seen holding a copper long knife, followed by a green-shirted man with a sword at his waist, with a black goatee, and a person about 30 years old trotting towards this side.

"It's Brother Liu! Great, you're alive! The young man with the long knife exclaimed, his expression was full of excitement, and Liu Ce was stunned when he saw it, this person was Guo Tao who had resisted the thieves in Houtu Fort before.

"Crazy, don't you recognize this as Liu Ce? Why are your own people still fighting? Guo Tao complained to the bald head.

Only then did Liu Ce recognize that this bald head was Feng Chou Nian under the same camp tent as himself, no wonder he was so familiar, but he couldn't recognize it for a while without hair.

Feng Chounian snorted coldly: "Who knows if this guy is with the thieves, even if not, have you forgotten that the rout along the way is more ruthless than the thieves?" Finally, we have a place to stay, and we will all have to finish if the first-class thieves kill again. ”

"That's someone else, Brother Liu, I promise with my life that I won't be such a person!" Guo Tao refuted, "How many times have I told you, if it wasn't for Brother Liu leading a few of us that day, I'm afraid we would have died in the fort." ”

Feng Chou Nian and Guo Tao exchanged a word, but the green-shirted guest next to Guo Tao pressed the sword in his hand, did not say a word, and observed Liu Ce, and Liu Ce also looked at him, this person has a dignified appearance, the skin on his face is slightly black, but his body is very neat, it is very rare in this troubled era, take a closer look, Liu Ce found that he was seven or eight points similar to Song Jiang played by Zhang Hanyu in his previous life. Looking at this costume again, Liu Ce knew that this person was by no means a fleeing outcast, but a child of a certain scholar clan who fell here for some reason.

"Okay, madman, stop arguing, let Brother Liu come in! What are you afraid of when he's alone? Seeing that it was not a way to stalemate with Feng Chou Nian like this, Guo Tao simply took a step back, and thought of letting Liu Ce come in first.

"I have a few brothers with me, so let them come in too." Liu Ce didn't wait for Feng Chou Nian to reply, so he shouted behind the dirt slope, "Huzi! Come out! ”

When the homeless people in front of the village heard Liu Ce's shout, their expressions changed, and they all held various instruments and waited for them, but they were relieved to see a young man pulling a mule and a sloppy head and a tiger brain rushing out from behind the dirt slope.

"Go and call Yang Kaishan and them, there is a place to stay tonight." Liu Ce instructed Liu Hu.

"Okay, no problem, wrap it up on me." Huzi pretended to pat his chest, and after glancing at Feng Chounian, he turned over and got on the horse, and staggered all the way to the direction where he came.

"Wait, I don't think I agreed to let you in!" Seeing that everyone ignored him, Feng Chounian's stubborn temper came up again, and he wanted to fight with Liu Ce again, in fact, he already knew in his heart that Liu Ce was not a thief, nor was he a rout who lost his restraint and began to make trouble, but he had a knot in his heart, and he stayed together in the camp for a year, Feng Chounian always felt that his martial arts were the highest, even if Zeng Yan, a veteran, was not his opponent, he had never fought with Liu Ce, he had a fight just now, he felt enjoyable, but it was not enjoyable, he really wanted to fight again, he had no other interests, My favorite two things are drinking and fighting, and the iron armor on my body is still taken by a thief general who rushed into the group of thieves with an axe on the way to escape......

"I'm talking crazy." Liu Ce spoke, "Settle people down first, and I'll accompany you to practice when you go back." Liu Ce was also shocked by Feng Chou Nian's martial arts, in a camp tent, Liu Ce also thought that no one was his opponent except for Zeng Yan and Feng Chou Nian, but he didn't expect Feng Chou Nian to be so brave, and he might not have a chance of winning again.

"Okay, that's it." After listening to Liu Ce's words, Feng Chounian finally relented, Guo Tao hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Liu Ce: "Chen Qing and Xu Hui are also here, let's meet together." ”

"Don't worry, it's not too late to wait for Huzi to bring people before entering." Liu Ce waved his hand and looked into the distance, and after a while, three mules and horses and two carriages slowly drove towards Zhuangkou.

The green-shirted guest looked at Liu Ce, still silent, but there was already a slight change in his eyes......
