Hearing Zhu Da's solemn words, Li He was stunned, there was no other choice for him, not to mention that Zhu Da gave him a guarantee to worship as a brother with a different surname.

Because of those more than 20 years of memory, Zhu Da did not have a deep understanding of the relationship between the sworn brothers and the master and apprentice, although he knew what it meant, becoming relatives without blood relations, and having obligations and responsibilities with each other, including life and death.

Zhu Da didn't realize it, but Li He knew it very clearly, but Zhou Qingyun was influenced by Zhu Da and didn't take this very seriously, of course, the two of them already had the experience of life and death together, and they had a relationship between brothers and sisters, so they were naturally different.

"That's really good, I've always wanted to ..... with Da Ye Zhu Da, you are close, but you feel that you can't climb high, and today you can become a brother, which is really the accumulation of virtue in the previous life, and it is really the fate of the previous life. Li He said with a happy face.

Everyone present knew one thing, and that was that the relationship between the sworn brothers really worked, and that was to wait until they got through the difficulties in front of them, and to get to the area that would provide peace and security alive, otherwise everything would be stopped.

Li He's words were not just surprises, his emotions were even more complicated, Zhu Da didn't pay attention to these trivialities, but said in a deep voice: "Since you agreed, the three of us will make a swear to the ancestors of heaven and earth and our parents here, and worship as brothers with different surnames!" ”

Although it is secluded and remote, there is not much time to delay, and swearing brothers is an important step to expand the network, but there is no environment and materials to make the ceremony formal and solemn, so it can only be simplified because of ugliness.

The three of them took all the supplies, rode away from the main road, found a flat place, piled up a small mound, and planted a few sticks of hay, Zhu Da shook his head and said: "If he is rich and prosperous in the future, we will worship again." ”

"Back then, the Taoyuan Three Knots, I'm afraid I didn't pay much attention to it, and today we are sharing hardships and hardships, which is a good sign." Li He said jokingly, he is already coarse in writing, and he has grown a lot of knowledge in the Zheng family in recent years, and he has a lot of routines in speech and behavior.

The etiquette of swearing brothers is also very complicated, but most of what the folk do is the routine in the story, which is nothing more than kowtowing a few heads to swear an oath to ghosts and ancestors, and then drink blood wine and the like, like in front of you, kneel down and kowtow and chant a few words.

Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun were too lazy to say, they were about to kneel down when they stepped forward, they all knew each other's ages, including Li He's, it was easy to distinguish the brothers, Qin Qin was released from the basket, and looked at this side with a red smoke ring, if it was in the past, the girl would probably have to shout to join, and today she has no intention of joining in the fun.

Before the simple ceremony began, Li He suddenly beckoned and said, "Wait a minute", and when Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun looked over, he said with a serious expression: "I am the oldest of the three of us, Qingyun, you should be a few months older than Zhu Da, but the order of brothers can't be counted like this, Zhu Da is the most capable of the three of us, he can be literary and martial arts and can also be the master, I think he should be the elder brother, be the eldest brother, Qingyun, you are so strong and brave, much stronger than me, I think I should be the second brother, and I have no ability to be the younger brother, That is, to be able to do some small things before and after the saddle, and it is most appropriate to be a little brother, what do you think? ”

Saying this, Zhu Da understands why Li He has been so impressive in Zhengjiaji in the past three years, and there is no need to mention his outstanding eloquence, this diligence and calculation are not something that a teenager can have, what is even more rare is that he is clever, he is very clear about what situation he is in, and being able to bend and stretch is a valuable essence for young people of this age.

Zhu Da looked at Zhou Qingyun, Zhou Qingyun nodded, there was a tacit understanding between the two of them.

Since everyone agreed with Li He's plan, Zhu Da was not pretentious, he just said "okay" and knelt in it.

“...... We and the other three are brothers here, and we do not seek to be born on the same day, the same month, and the same year, but to die on the same day, the same month, and the same year......"

After stating their names, they said the words of the routine, kowtowed, and the three of them got up, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun did not speak, and Li He shouted "big brother" and "second brother" affectionately.

Looking at Li He, who was full of joy and enthusiasm in front of him, Zhu Da didn't know what to say for a while, Li He was frightened these days, and just now he learned about the death of his parents and brother and sister, but now he has to force a smile and work hard for his own survival.

Zhu Da hesitated, patted Li He's shoulder, and said in a muffled voice, "It's not easy for you." ”

This was a clueless statement, Li He was also stunned, and when Zhu Da turned around to clean up, tears flowed out uncontrollably, and he wiped several handfuls without stopping.

There was not much change between the three of them after the marriage, giving Li He food and water, as well as a set of old clothes, even if he didn't bow down, he still didn't have the right to ride a horse, everyone knew in their hearts that if they really swore brothers or something, they would wait until the difficulties in front of them.

After a short break, Li He's state was much better, and the three of them went to Huairen County together, Li He agreed with the plan to go to the county seat to resettle, but several people had hidden worries in their hearts, Zheng Jiaji was opened by this kind of internal and external cooperation, so will Huairen County have a similar fate, if it is broken over there, where will you go next?

What makes Li He more comfortable is that Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun did not swagger on the horse, but led the horse forward, and only got on the horse when they saw people around, of course, this is not to take care of Li He's feelings, at such a critical juncture everywhere, the mobility of the horse is the key to saving life, of course, let the mount have a good rest.

The little chill in the middle of the night seemed to have never appeared, the sun was shining, the heat was pressing, and there was no sign of the past in summer, and in such a climate, the corpses that had not been buried would quickly decay and emit a disgusting stench.

Walking southwest from Zhengjiaji, this rancid smell has been permeating the official road, and you can even see wild dogs scurrying around, and even other beasts.

This also proves that the development on the ground of Datong is very incomplete, and it is densely populated on weekdays, but as soon as people retreat, beasts immediately fill up the space for this activity.

The more you go in the direction of the county, the lighter the smell of rancidity, and the more pedestrians on the road, judging from the way they are dressed, they are all residents in the vicinity, each carrying a package, looking panicked, at the beginning Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun were still full of vigilance, even Li He was ready to hide and escape, and after finding out that these were just fleeing people, he was somewhat relieved.

There are men, women, and children on the road, and they can't see anyone riding horses, or even people with weapons, and the people are weak and kind, and they don't even have the means to protect themselves and fight, at most, they are young and strong with sticks and farm tools, and compared with these people, Zhu Da and several people are armed to the teeth.

"Here, the Tartars don't dare to be unscrupulous, because they don't dare to delay, and they can't go if there are any variables." Juda made a judgment.

There were officials and cavalry who participated in the massacre, and even participated in the affairs of Zheng Jiaji's internal and external cooperation, Zhu Da was not prepared to say to Li He that the fewer people who knew about such secrets, the better.

"Seeing so many people on the road, it is much more likely that Huairen County will be saved."

Some of the people on the road are crying, some are scolding, and more are numb, such a look shows that they are lucky, at least they escaped, and many people have no chance to cry and scold and be numb.

When you can see the outline of Huairen County from a distance, the villages close to the official road are also much more complete, even if you don't go to look closely, you can see that the village has been destroyed, but the damage is not complete, it may have been set on fire on the periphery, and then it was extinguished, it may have been burned in transit, but most of the people hid in time and were not found, the people of these villages went in and out, compared to the refugees on the road, they were more lucky.

After there were more people on the road, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun both got on the horse, and Li He, who was holding a short knife, followed quickly, there was no need to let the horse gallop for a while, and Li He didn't have to worry about being thrown off.

There are more and more people walking on the official road, not that there are new refugees joining, but that the people in front of them are walking more and more slowly, as if they are blocked by something, and they can even hear loud shouts and cries.

Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun looked at each other, then turned to Li He and said, "If something happens, you run away first, you can't help now." ”

After telling this sentence, Zhu Da asked Zhou Qingyun to lock the basket containing Qin Qin, which can usually allow the girl to breathe or something, and at this juncture, it is better to take precautions first.

didn't take a few steps forward, and could already see the people who turned back, surrounded by everyone to inquire about what was going on in front of them, Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun couldn't come forward because of their mounts, Li He leaned over to listen, he held the knife in his hand, and said kind words, but everyone gave him up.

It didn't take long for Li He to run back with a cautious face, and he came to him and said: "The Zhuangzi in front of him set up a card to block the road, saying that he was checking the thief, but in fact he wanted money and things, and the people who passed the card were robbed, and the Zhuangzi who didn't rob it did it directly, and Xiang Yong was still holding a knife and stick, which was arrogant and tight." ”

Zhou Qingyun's expression was solemn, Zhu Da did not answer, but turned over and got on the horse, and then stood directly on the saddle with a little force, stood higher and looked ahead, and turned over after looking at it.

"Let's take a detour, our two horses will be easily trapped in the past, and we won't be able to run when the time comes." Judah took the idea.

After he finished speaking, Zhou Qingyun nodded, and Li He said two funny words: "What is the use of blocking an intersection on the ground of this horse Pingchuan, how can you go around it." ”

The crops in the fields are still lush, but they can't stop people and horses from walking, not to mention that there are paths between the ridges, not only Zhu Da and they thought of this, but many fearful refugees also dispersed from the official road and approached the crops to see if they could bypass them.

If you disperse like this, there is no one to take care of it, the crops must have been trampled on, and no one cares, and some people even shout and scold, saying that they deserve it.
