Chapter 358: Encounter
From Hanoi to the Taihang Mountains, the road becomes rugged and difficult, the foothills stretch green fields in the sun appear dense and verdant, a carriage on the mountain road is slowly moving, only a strong man with a palm and a young man pulling the reins, and the cart has just gone up a hillside, sweaty, looking from afar, the undulating mountains, there is no end in sight, for the lady who is accustomed to seeing the flatness of the Central Plains and the southern mountains, the current scenery makes people feel majestic and majestic, and the heart is wide and happy - after a period of rest, They continued along the steep path in the mountains, and soon after they encountered a roaming scout......
Dozens of miles away from here, thousands of rear teams protected their families and dependents and walked slowly, a red war horse unsaddled its leather saddle, and ran back and forth freely in front of the team, occasionally stopping in front of the slow-moving carriage, spraying rough air to lift the curtain, and a small hand poked out from it to feed some rice crackers, Lu Lingqi shook her hair down, reached out and patted the horse's head.
The wheels were undulating, and the mighty and tall Lu Bu in the carriage sat in the middle, thinking about things silently, his closed eyes were sometimes in violent ups and downs, and he opened and looked at his daughter lying on the window frame, and then closed it Soon after, the wife next to him woke up from her sleep, looked at his appearance, and reached over to hold it gently.
"My husband has been dull since he arrived in Shangdang County, is he thinking of Uncle Zhi, or are you worried that Zhongda will get into trouble?"
Lu Bu opened his eyes: "Uncle Zhi has gone, what he has done is enough to be respectable, although he misses it a little, but he won't miss it......"
"That's worried about Zhongda?" Yan stretched his curly legs, which were a little numb, "The concubine is also worried about him, only after going to Taihang Mountain, she runs into the mountains day and night, sometimes asking him, and she doesn't say why." ”
"He's looking for the thieves who killed his family."
The carriage shook suddenly, Lu Bu let go of the hand pressed on his knee, and leaned forward to stabilize his daughter who was lying in front of the window, "...... after arriving in Shangdang County from Hanoi that day, I suddenly remembered that if I can kill a bandit from a family, in addition to the black mountain thieves in the past, it belongs to Gongsun Zhi, and the black mountain thieves are destroyed, and he is the biggest horse thief and mountain thief." ”
"Husband, don't tell Zhongda this!"
The woman was a little frightened, and squeezed her husband's hand tightly, Lu Bu patted the back of her hand, and looked at her daughter: "I won't tell him, I can teach him, I have already taught, how he will go in the future, that is his business, as for what will happen in the future, this child is incomprehensible." ”
Yan's eyes were a little worried, and when he saw her husband say this, she had to nod: "Zhongda is very smart, if he sees something, will he cause a murderous disaster, and it will also affect the family at that time." ”
"Xi Wu first learns his heart, Zhong Da's heart is not on this, naturally he is hidden, maybe after coming to the party, he has already seen something, but buried it in his heart." The mountain road became more and more rugged, Lu Bu hugged his daughter, put him on the seat next to him, and looked at the foothills where the curtain was lifted, leaving Yue Sui's face with a complicated smile at this time: "...... Madame, there are some things that cannot be done by cleverness and desperate cruelty, and if I tell him about them, he will be the first to die. If it was really Gongsun Zhi's doing, how could he dare to use him without defense? ”
After a pause, he looked at his wife: "In the future, Zhongda has nothing to do with me...... Although I did not wear chains, the tiger in my heart wore shackles. ”
"Hmm...... Husband has done enough......"
Lu Bu restrained his smile and reached out to rub a wisp of green silk hanging on his wife's shoulder: "Actually, I came all the way, but I was just a little hesitant in my heart, I haven't returned to the grassland for many years, and I am a little nervous about going back this time...... I couldn't sleep for a few nights. ”
"Husband, this is a cowardice in the hometown...... But no matter where the husband goes, the concubine and Lingqi will follow, Lingqi, don't you say? ”
Over there, the little girl who was puffing out her cheeks and chewing rice crackers saw her parents' eyes looking over, swallowed the food hard, and nodded: "Hmm! Where Daddy and Mother are, Lingqi is there! But...... Where are we going now? ”
As he was talking, there was a sudden cry from the rear of the team, and then the voices were boiling and noisy, Lu Bu frowned, opened the curtain, and asked the parallel rider outside: "Gao Shun, what happened in the rear?" ”
"I'll go take a look." Gao Shun nodded with a serious expression, turned his horse away from the side and went to the back, after a while, he galloped back on horseback, and said outside the curtain: "It's an accident......" There was a rare other expression on his face, and he looked like a ghost.
"What's wrong?"
"Cao Ang is not dead......"
Lu Bu's brows furrowed even more, and he glanced at the figure on horseback, "That's right?" ”
"Pan Wushuang under the command of Gongsun Dudu is holding that person and laughing and crying, there will be nothing wrong with it." Gao Shun tightened the reins, leaned closer, and lowered his voice: "Wen Hou, will all this be Gongsun Zhibu's bureau, and Cao Cao will be kept in the dark." ”
"......." Lu Bu's mouth opened slightly, and he didn't say anything for a while, leaned back, and waved his hand: "Forget it, you and I don't want to guess on it, whether it is the cloth bureau or not, it has nothing to do with us, anyway, in the end, there will always be some people who will suffer at his hands, concentrate on hurrying." ”
The sound in the carriage gradually subsided, and on the other side, the big waist and round figure at the back of the team hugged the young man in sackcloth, crying and laughing, tears and snot on the other party's shoulders, and the horns and helmets on his head fell to the ground and rolled, "Zi Xuan...... You're fine....... you're fine," he said, and he cried out again: "...... Lao Pan wants you to die!! ”
Cao Ang's eyes were also a little moist, and his hand gently patted the sturdy man who was crying like a child, "It's okay, my life is big, a river saved Ang, and now I'm back, let's go back to the north together, and kill the enemy on the grassland together!" ”
"Good, good!" Pan Feng wiped his tears and snot, and nodded excitedly, "When I go back, I will dismantle the spiritual seat offered at home...... Your spiritual position...... By the way, hurry up and send a fast horse to inform the lord. As he spoke, he summoned the wolf riders who were watching the excitement around him and ordered him to go down.
At the same time, Cao Ang also stretched out his head to look ahead, except for a few oxen and carriages, he didn't see more wolf riders, and turned his gaze back: "Old Pan, is the governor not here?" ”
Sent away and rode quickly, hearing Cao Ang's question, Pan Feng shook his head and pointed to the north: "Li Xianjiu came to an urgent letter, Dongfang Juncheng's body is getting more and more serious, you should have heard Cao Chun talk about this, a weak scholar with women and children, and two hundred horse thieves occupied the territory and took the Xianbei people outside the mountain, and was slashed on the arm, which was abolished." ”
"Know."
The joy of the reunion gradually calmed down, Cao Ang heard that Dongfang Sheng's body was broken, and his heart was a little uncomfortable...... When he was thinking about it, on the carriage that came behind him, Wu Anguo's voice suddenly sounded: "I forgot just to listen to what you said, Zixuan, don't forget, who else is in this car?!" ”
"You're married?" Pan Feng's eyes widened.
Cao Ang didn't answer his words, and pointed to the carriage with a flap, "It's an old man, and his medical skills are very good, if he takes it to see Juncheng, he can't say ........"
"Then you didn't say it earlier, chirp crooked!!" Pan Feng's face became majestic, he picked up the helmet on the ground and pressed his head, and turned on the horse's back in a sassy manner: "Go and ride again to tell the lord that there is someone who saves the county, go quickly-"
Wu Anguo jumped out of the carriage, walked to Cao Ang's side, and said in a low voice, "You old friend...... It looks a little unreliable......" The latter looked at the figure giving orders on horseback speechlessly, and just shook his head and smiled.
