Chapter Twenty-Three: A Robber Encounters a Thief on the Road to Worship Shou in F County

Liu Shi and Liu Zhen bid farewell to Master Zheng, saying that they were ordered by their father to go to Fan County, Yanzhou at the end of the year to pay homage to their uncle's birthday, and then wanted to study in Luoyang. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Zheng Xuan glanced at Liu Shi deeply, and said with a smile: "You are brave enough to champion the three armies, and you can carry the crown, and now it is commendable that you can devote yourself to learning." It's a pity that I don't know much about the tactics of war, so I can't pass it on to you. If you want to go to Luoyang, I can introduce you to one or two. Your neighbor, Lu Zigong of Zhuoxian County, is my good friend, who knows both military strategy and knowledge, and is a rare scholar. I will write you a letter of recommendation, and when you go to Luoyang, you can hand it over if you meet him, or it may be useful. There is also a person in Taixue, whom I have consulted, and who I can ask to teach. ”

Speaking of this, he paused and said: "I think you have a calamity recently, and you have to go to the east to be saved, and you don't know who your savior is, but I know that there will be two people, one before and one behind, distributed in two places, you can do it yourself."

Don't panic in case of robbery, someone will come to the rescue. It's just that you have to put kindness first and benevolence first in the future, so that you can be safe. After your luck, if you don't come to Tai, everything can be done. But you have to remember what you said about being a human being, and go back to the line seriously, and get a lot of help for the righteous and little help for the unjust, you go! He handed Liu Shi two letters of recommendation.

Liu Shi said goodbye, just turned out of the village, and saw two girls standing there, Liu Shi saw it, who was not Bai Shao and Red Peony? It's just that I haven't seen it for a few months, and it seems to have grown a lot taller, and I have a faint girlish demeanor.

Liu Shi's heart moved, and he hurriedly dismounted and walked towards the two, while Liu Zhen let the horse go.

"Little junior sister! How do you know that we are gone? Liu Shidao.

Chi Shao Mu ignored it, and Bai Shao saluted: "I know that my senior brother is going to Fan County to pay homage to my birthday, and I am here to say goodbye, I am afraid that there will be no day when we will see each other again." The little sister has been taught swordsmanship by her senior brother, and she has been practicing every day, and she dare not forget. I hope that one day I can win the senior brother's one-and-a-half moves, but it seems that there is no chance. Senior brother hero, I hope that my brother will shine in the future, open up the territory for me, and make immortal contributions. ”

Liu Shi also had mixed feelings in his heart, and said: "Thank you for the kindness of the two junior sisters, the senior brother does not forget, when the senior brother is successful in the future, he should go to Donglai again, meet the two junior sisters, and then ask for benefits." After saying that, he wanted to get on his horse and leave.

At this time, Chi Shao said angrily: "Liu Shi! You bad guy, take advantage of me, bully me as a little girl, I must win against you! You wait. ”

Liu Shi's face turned red, turned around and said: "It's senior brother, it's not anymore, it's another day, I'll come to accompany the crime from now on, and ask for advice." After saying that, he struck the horsewhip and galloped away. Chi Shao looked at Liu Shi's back, tears streaming down her face.

Zheng Xuan quietly came to the side of the two girls, touched Chi Shao's head and said, "This son has a catastrophe, this time it is extremely difficult to get through, and it is not human." If you can get through it, maybe you will see each other one day, go back! ”

"Grandfather! Is there no way to avoid this catastrophe? Chi Peony asked with tears streaming down her face.

Zheng Xuan sighed: "Providence is like this, no one can avoid it, you and I are both robbers, it's just a matter of severity, which is why I no longer plan to be an official." The Han Dynasty is now unquiet in all directions, and the wind and clouds are gathering, Liu Bei and Liu Shi are all born with extraordinary abilities, and they are not ordinary people, but they are people who should be robbed.

Liu Bei has a lot of luck, but he can always turn evil into good fortune, but this son can't be measured, and there is nothing to do! Numerically, you have crossed paths with this son, but you don't know the result. Helpless! That's why I didn't stop you from associating with him, but then you can't come again, it's a courtesy! You can also put him down this time. ”

Liu Shi didn't know that Zheng Xuan was not good at asking questions, and his hexagram skills were not bad. Although he didn't take Zheng Xuan's words to heart, the shadows of the red peony and the white peony couldn't be separated from his heart. All the way, he was sullen and fought with Liu Zhen to rush to Fan County, East County, Yanzhou.

"Childe! What can't you let go? After going to Fan County, if you don't want to go to Luoyang and then return to Donglai, it is not impossible, as long as the son concentrates on learning, wherever is Taixue. Liu Zhen said.

"Too learned! Right! Didn't Emperor Guangwu also cultivate in Taixue? Zheng Shi didn't say that he should study when he was established, and he should study when he started school. Although the scriptures are good, they are not my purpose, if you want to learn literary and martial arts, military books and war strategies are indispensable. I am less than 16 years old this year, how can I abandon my ideal for the love of my children: galloping on the battlefield, immediately fighting for the marquis, and reproducing the glory of my ancestors. When the time comes, what will happen if I come to see Master Zheng and meet Chi Shao? Thinking of this, my heart suddenly brightened, and I was in a comfortable mood for a while, laughing.

Liu Zhen was scared! Hurriedly shouted, "Childe, what's wrong with you?" ”

Liu Shi said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's your Taixue that reminded me, Master Zheng can only teach us the truth of being a human being, and can only let us familiarize ourselves with the scriptures and write articles, but the military books and war strategies we need more can't be handed over to us, only in Luoyang, Taixue has it."

After the birthday, we went straight to Luoyang.

Yes! Luoyang! I'm coming! Liu Shi shouted.

"Childe! You see, there are more people fleeing the famine than last year! In the past, we used to see a small team, but now it's all the way. What's going on? Liu Zhen said worriedly.

"This Han Dynasty is sick!" Liu Shi said coldly.

Then he sighed and said: "You didn't hear Master Zheng say that this court is the ten permanent servants in the court, and the people in the clear stream are all demoted from the court and are not allowed to be officials." Officials in the court can buy it as long as they use money. In this way, in order to recover the money they handed over as soon as possible, the people who contributed the money all paid miscellaneous taxes to the people, set up clever names, and collected heavy fees. Those who have no money can only sell their fields and land, and sell their sons and daughters. In the end, you can only escape to survive. In this way, how can the world not be chaotic? Have pity on the people of the world! ”

"Then can we save them?" Liu Zhen asked.

Liu Shidao: "Since studying at Master Zheng for a year, I have a lot of emotion in my heart, these people we can save one person, ten people, but can not save the people of the whole world, only as a shepherd, can we do things for the people, in order to save the people." Let's go! Liu Wan hurried over.

On this day, I came to the place near East County, and in a few days I will be in Fan County.

As soon as I turned a mountain bend, I saw a big man standing in the middle of the forest road.

This big man was majestic, with a cross-faced face and a big burden on his back, and when he saw Liu Shi and Liu Zhen coming, he shouted loudly: "Boy, leave your horses and money, and let you go." ”

When Liu Zhen saw it, he said vigilantly: "Who are you, why are you blocking our way?" Can't you rob it? You must know that the law of the Han Dynasty is that robbery is equivalent to murder and is a death penalty. Why don't you leave soon? We are not to blame for the past, and we will not report you anymore. Hurry up and let us go? ”

The big man laughed and said, "Two boys! The Law of the Great Han? You don't know your condition yet! To tell you the truth, Lao Tzu was still the head of the nursing home in Mr. Zhang's house a few days ago, because he drank a little wine the night before yesterday and broke into the young lady's room.

Unexpectedly, after breaking in, seeing the young lady's white body, how could she still bear it, and took advantage of the wine, so that Lao Tzu had a good refreshment, who knew that the little girl couldn't think of it, yelled to catch the thief, and hit her head to death. Lao Tzu had no way to hide, so he had to kill the Zhang family without doing anything.

It's just that the matter is big, alarming the government, seizing a lot of gold, silver and jewelry from the Zhang Mansion, and preparing to escape. It's a hateful thing that the horses in Zhang's mansion were snatched away by my subordinates. I was about to take refuge with the nearby mountain king, and I just walked here, and I met you two boys and brought me a mount.

Do you think it's my luck? Brat! Be honest, hurry up and send the mount to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is in a good mood for a while, maybe he will let you go.

Otherwise, next year today will be your anniversary. After speaking, he looked at Liu Shi and Liu Zhen with a cruel smile.

Liu Zhen was furious! shouted: "Ignorant thief, dying is dying, and he is still so rampant, as a domestic slave, he has done such a heartless and crazy thing, and he dares to rob the Tao here." This is your retribution, and when the time of your death comes, you will not regret it, and you will take your life! As he spoke, he drew his sword and ran towards the big man.

When Liu Shi saw it, he shouted lightly: "True brother! You are no match for this thief, be careful! As soon as the words fell, I heard a loud noise, and Liu Zhen and the big man collided with each other. Immediately saw Liu Zhen's long sword being slashed by the big sword, Liu Zhen himself shook it a few times, and walked away.

Liu Shi was startled and rushed up, shouting, "That thief, look at the sword!" ”

The big man turned sideways, the fierce light was revealed, he raised his knife and slashed at Liu Shi, there was another loud bang, Liu Shi shook his body, and the big man took more than a dozen steps back before standing firmly, and touched his sore arm.

He was shocked: "Where is the boy, his arm strength is good, he can split Lao Tzu back, come again!" After saying that, he galloped over, saw the front of the horse, rolled on the spot, and slashed at the horse's leg with the blade of the knife.

Sure enough, ginger is old and spicy.

Liu Shi was in a hurry, lifted the reins, and the horse jumped to the side, but he could dodge a knife.

Liu Shi was furious, and once again lifted the horse and ran towards the big man, the long sword turned, and stabbed at the big man, seeing that the big man dodged again, who knew that Liu Shi's long sword was around, the sword body turned, the galloping horse stood up, and with a click, a head flew up.
