Chapter 37: The Black Mountain Army

Luoyang autumn rain for several days, outside Cai's house, a carriage ran over the water on the ground and stopped, an old man in his fifties came to visit, was led into the hall by the servant, and soon there was a sound of talking in the house, on the other side, a figure under the eaves quietly came over and stuck behind the door to listen, intermittently composed of some intelligible words.

β€œ...... Now that the situation in Luoyang is chaotic, I often serve Dong and the thief, and if I am liquidated in the future, I am afraid that Zhao Ji will be affected...... I'm afraid that the marriage contract will have to be advanced. ”

"Ling Yuan, proficient in music and poetry, is my son's good match...... In this way, this marriage is indeed decided as soon as possible, but there is one thing that is not clear, why does Brother Bo want to be with that Dong Zhuo, but I don't know that sooner or later, such evil ministers will betray their relatives and leave... This morning, Dong Zhuo Haibu wrote to arrest the assassin...... I heard that the name is Cao Cao... I can imagine that there will be more people who die so generously in the future, and when Dong Zhuo is overturned, how will Bo Zhuo deal with himself......"

"Dong Zhuo respects the old man, if he stays, he may be able to persuade him and kill less."

β€œ...... That's it, I'm afraid that those people won't appreciate it in the future......"

"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about the marriage between Akihime and Nakado...... Set an auspicious day as soon as possible..."

…..

The figure behind the door covered his mouth and snickered, and then tiptoed away, his little feet happily ran under the porch, turned a small door and went to the backyard wing, shouting: "Sister... Sister..."

The window of the wing room under the eaves in front is open, the rain is ticking in the eaves and is connected into a beaded curtain, a girl in a light blue short skirt and a white floral long skirt holds a bamboo slip in one hand, her eyes sweep the handwriting on it quietly, her fingers press the strings, she seems to understand the rhythm on the bamboo slips, the corners of her mouth turn into a light and elegant smile, her fingertips are lightly picked, and the strings emit a 'zheng' light trill.

At this time, the sound of rapid footsteps sounded from the window, and a figure with two small bags on his head suddenly pulled out of the window, startling the girl, and when he saw who it was, he put down the bamboo slip and poked his finger lightly at the door of the other party's head: "...... I want to scare my sister to death, it's not light or heavy. ”

"Sister, let me tell you something special, do you want to hear it?" The girl struggled to put her feet on her feet and make herself a little higher than the windowsill.

The girl snorted her red lips lightly, "You went to listen to your father talk to people again, the lesson from last time was not enough......" But in the blink of an eye, she leaned slightly to the side, put her face to the past, and whispered: "What is new?" ”

"Of course it'......" the girl whispered, and then suddenly shouted loudly: "Of course my sister is getting marriedβ€”"

Over there, the girl in the room was not frightened, but her face turned slightly red, and she was so anxious that she stood up and ran out of the door to grab her sister who wanted to run away, and turned her around, "What you said is true?" ”

"Hmm!"

The girl nodded affirmatively and pointed to the front yard: "Daddy just talked to the uncle of the Wei family about this, and said that he would marry his sister as soon as possible...... Sister, you're not happy. ”

β€œ.......”

The raindrops splashed on the tender green leaves outside the eaves, and the girl who was silent slowly got up and brushed over the red carved pillars, her eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, and she looked at the gloomy sky between the green trees in the courtyard, her lips opened slightly, and her voice was very soft.

β€œ...... But my sister doesn't want to marry yet......"

On a rainy day like this, there was still a person in Luoyang City who was in a hazy mood like a rain cloud and was frightened. Lying down, I could hear the shouts of someone kicking open the courtyard door and arresting it......

In the dark night, the heavy rain crackled on the roof, Yuan Shao woke up from his dream again, and since he fell out with Dong Zhuo, he was terrified all day long. He got up and put on his clothes and stood in front of the window, watching the rain curtain fall loudly, remembering the incident of Cao Mengde's assassination of Dong Thief yesterday, his heart was stunned for a moment, and then he became more and more uneasy, after all, the two of them are friends, what if Dong Zhuo pointed the butcher's knife at him?

The sky was dark, the rain did not stop, and his clenched teeth loosened, and his fist slammed into the window frame.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's better to leave. ”

He muttered that he had made a decision, and soon, when the sky was bright, he hung the talismans issued by the imperial court at the east gate, and went away in heavy rain.

********************************

On this day, Gongsun Zhi, a group of 800 people who were walking on the big mountain, had a little accident.

The torch burned lonely under the tree, the heavy rain washed the dense leaves, most of the people around were hiding under the tree to rest, waiting for the dawn, this barren mountain and wild range was rarely passed, at this time Gongsun Zhi looked at the simple map drawn on the cloth, and compared the terrain with the map in the phantom, although there were some similar places, but after all, he was still lost.

"The next time I can meet him, I will definitely slaughter him." Gao Sheng sat cross-legged on the ground and shouted angrily.

"It's a pity that there are no people on this mountain, otherwise you can ask for directions."

Gongsun Zhi put away the map and looked at the sky behind the forest gap, a gray one, probably early in the morning, they walked all the way south over the mountains and mountains, not as easy as the grassland flats, and most of them led the horses, the speed was much slower, and it was more than half a month since they set off.

At this moment, a wolf rider in front of him whistled, and then he exchanged hands with someone, and his figure shook, and he rushed out and shouted, "Enemy attackβ€”"

The eight hundred figures that had been sleeping with their eyes closed suddenly got up and formed a formation, and it was inconvenient to ride horses at the foot of the mountain, so the speed of the formation was much faster, and the wolf who gave the warning rode back, and there was a rustling of footsteps around, and hundreds of torches were lit up in the rainy night.

Farther away, more people shouted and ran towards this direction.

"It's been so long... The horse thief has met a bandit...... Hehe...."Gongsun Zhi held the hilt of the knife and slowly pulled it out, there was a 'buzzing' sound, and under the firelight, his eyes were as sharp as a hungry wolf.

"Bleed these bandits." He whispered.

Around, the bow and arrow were raised, and in the next moment, Gao Sheng suddenly shouted in one direction: "Left Mustache Zhanghachi-"

Among the figures surrounding him, a figure paused, suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed, and hundreds of thieves who came forward stopped together, the man took the torch and walked over to this side, revealing his full face, thick eyebrows, a handful of beard on the left side of his lips that was almost to the chin, burly and broad, and the other hand was holding a short-handled axe.

"It's really you ....." Gao Sheng screamed in surprise, and hurriedly asked the wolf rider to put down the bow and arrow in his hand, "My own family, all my own family, put down the bow and arrow." ”

The man called Zuo Zhanghachi also asked the thief behind him to put down his weapon, and then squeezed the opponent's arm tightly, "Why are you here...... A few years ago, I thought you were dead......"

"The other party stabbed a spear off, and his heart was not broken, so he didn't die, and crawled out of the pile of corpses." Gao Sheng hurriedly pulled this old acquaintance to Gongsun Zhi, "Chief, this is the good brother in the yellow scarf back then, and his own people almost fought." ”

Gongsun Zhi nodded, put away the scimitar, and looked at the big man: "Since you are old acquaintances, then ask you, where is this?" ”

The bandit leader named Zuo Zhanghachi looked at the bald man beside him, and then at the young leader in front of him. Gao Sheng pushed him impatiently: "Hurry up, this is the leader of my new worship." ”

"This is the range of the Black Mountain Army, Big Mountain, and to the east is the territory of the Yu Poison Chief, but where are you going? Let's just join us, we're short of horses. ”

Gongsun Zhi frowned.

"Black Mountain Army Zhang Yan?"
