The tall man unraveled the charcoal fire and found that Lirong had also gone to lead his horse. Master Gao took the black knife and found that she had also taken a knife from Gutun City and hung it on her horse. Master Gao asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Lirong said, "I'll go with you." ”

Many people saw the tall man riding a horse, and hurriedly ran over and asked, "Tall man, do you want to follow?" ”

Lirong said, "The maids are sleeping in the tent, what are you doing here?" I and Master Gao went to see the enemy's situation, and we were optimistic about your night shift. ”

Duoduo didn't leave, but waited for Lord Gao's words, and saw Lord Gao waving his hand at him speechlessly, so he ran away. Master Gao said in his heart, "What kind of enemy situation do you see? It's really hostile, and I'm going to have to pull you away. Besides, I think you're the biggest enemy. ”

He did not speak, but silently led his horse and rode down the east bank of the Poplar River all the way south. Seeing that Lord Gao did not say anything to stop her, Lirong decided that she could act, so she rode a horse and followed behind Lord Gao.

The two of them walked about two miles one after the other, and suddenly two black shadows jumped out of the grass by the river, and bowed to Lord Gao together, first startling Lirong, only to hear the two black shadows ask, "Lord Gao, it's so late, are you still going out?" ”

Master Gao asked, "Is there anything wrong?" ”

The two said, "Calm down for now. ”

Master Gao asked again, "You are on foot, how do you rush back to deliver the letter in case of any situation?" ”

One of them replied, "My lord, we rode a horse, and I didn't expect that even the tall adults didn't see it." Following the direction of his finger, Gao Da and Lirong noticed a white horse lying in a dense white patch of grass by the river.

The white horse should be a little conspicuous in the dark night, but the tall man really didn't notice it, and the man said, "Tall man, how are we practicing our concealment skills?" Master Gao nodded again and again, it seems that the taming of the horses in Jiaohe has done a good job these days.

The tall man complimented him twice and then walked forward, letting them continue to lurk.

Lirong said immediately behind her, "Master Gao, I see that your subordinates are all capable, and they are not far from ordinary sergeants. ”

Lord Gao didn't hear her flattering tone, but compared with some regular sergeants, his subordinates may be inferior to the experience of actual combat. Then Licheng asked, "Lord Gao, these people under you, I see that when they see those ten maids, their eyes can't wait to fly to them, but this is a little different from you. ”

Master Gao said, "This is human nature, whoever has beaten a single until now, if he doesn't react at all when he sees them, then he deserves to be beaten single." After saying that, I thought about it, and I explored what she was doing with it, and moved forward.

A little movement in the middle of the night can be transmitted far away, Lirong wanted to speak again, but when she saw that Lord Gao raised his hand to stop her from talking, thinking that he had discovered some enemy, she was a little nervous.

I followed behind for a while, and found that the tall man was still not in a hurry, where was there any hostility?

Lirong said on the horse, "Oh, it's not good to ride a horse for a long time, the saddle is worn out on both of my thighs!" When Lord Gao heard her say this, he couldn't help but think, no, a person like you doesn't embroider at home, but you ride a horse and run so far, I don't know what your two thighs are grinded into?

As soon as he thought of this, he found that Lirong didn't speak, and suddenly realized that she was looking for something again. But his mind was pulled twice before he pulled back from the top of his thigh.

Master Gao said to her, "Since you know that we are watching the enemy's situation, why don't you know how to keep your mouth shut?" You must know that your shrill voice is not a small enemy in the ears of the enemy. So Lirong didn't speak, she was willing to go down with the tall man like this, and it was okay not to speak.

In the desert, it heats up fast during the day, and it doesn't cool down slowly at night. The two of them didn't feel the heat during the day at all, but felt a little autumnal. A crescent moon like a hook rose in the east of the sky, moving forward with the two of them, but in Lirong's opinion, there was a poetic mood that was not light.

She wanted to say something more, but when she saw that the tall man had put on a charcoal fire, she sat quietly and listened. She couldn't hear anything, thinking that Master Gao was playing tricks again, and Master Gao whispered to herself, "Enemy affection, you crow mouth." ”

He heard a team of horses coming towards the southwest of the two, not very fast, as if deliberately suppressing the sound of hooves. He turned back to Lirong and said, "Someone is coming, you go back and tell them to strengthen their vigilance!" ”

Lirong said nervously, "Don't scare me, why can't I hear it at all?" Seeing that Master Gao didn't look like a fake, he said, "You have a secret sentry lurking behind, and you still need me, besides, where are you going?" ”

Master Gao only said that the people who came were on the other side. I listened with my ear sideways, and after confirming it, I said to her, "It's okay if you don't go back, I'm afraid that if you run away, the other party will find out first." So they stopped their horses, and stood side by side behind the white grass by the river, waiting for anyone to come near.

In a short time, a caravan of horses appeared in the night on the other side of the river, and the black shadow avoided the white sand on the ground, and only marched by the grassy river. As the hoof sound got closer and closer, it clearly entered Lirong's ears.

Her hand holding the reins of the horse trembled slightly, she didn't expect to come out and slip a horse, and someone really came to make up her mind in the middle of the night. She wanted to reach for the hanging knife, but she was afraid that she would make a noise and the other party would find out about the enemy. I went to see the tall man, who didn't move like a clay statue, and didn't take off his sword.

Looking at this dark horse shadow, there should be no less than two hundred people. They stopped on the other side of the river, only to hear a man whisper an order, "The river ahead is too wide and the water is too deep, and it will make too much noise." Here we crossed the river, and then rushed through the two miles, and together we grabbed the horses and walked away, and did not want to fight. ”

They turned their ways, and rode their horses into the river, and the legs of the horses stirred up a slight wave, and in a moment they all came to this side of the river, and were only a stone's throw away from the tall man and Lirong, where they silently formed their formation.

Lirong saw the tall man pull the reins of his horse, and the charcoal fire emerged from the white stacked grass, and slowly paced to the front of the horse team and stood still, taking off the black knife hanging on the horse.

Knowing that there was a battle to be fought, Charcoal Fire seemed to be very excited, his mane and tail shaking, and his hooves kept digging the ground. When Lirong saw it, she also pulled out the horse and stood beside the tall man.

Suddenly, two people on horseback flashed out from the front silently, and the person on the opposite side obviously didn't expect that there was a slight commotion in the formation that had just been formed, and someone asked in a low voice, "Irrelevant people are flashing aside, don't do your best to stand in our way." ”

Master Gao laughed on the horse, and the laughter seemed to calm Lirong's beating heart. I only heard Master Gao say, "You came to visit late at night, it seems that you have taken a fancy to the horses below, and you blame me for being in the way here!" Why don't you tell me where you came from, and if I'm pleased, maybe I'll give you two horses. ”

One of the people in the opposite team shouted, "Only two people dare to speak big, if they bring a bow today, they will shoot through you first." When the tall man heard this, he knew that the other party did not bring a bow and arrow in order to grab the horse, and he was half relieved. said, "Gao Jun, the pastoral supervisor in Liuzhong, Xiaxi Prefecture, took his men to the Baiyang River to graze. There is a way that people don't deceive me, I don't deceive others, you have to think about it! ”

The man looked like a little boss, and was about to reply, when one of the people next to him said, "Let's go back!" ”

It seems that he is the biggest of them. Although his men were puzzled, they saw that this man had turned his horse's head and galloped into the river, and they all followed behind, and crossed the river in the blink of an eye.

After crossing the river, the gang did not hold back their voices, but shouted and ran away like a gust of wind. (To be continued.) )
