There is a particularly philosophical saying in Zen Buddhism, which is called the thousands of times of looking back in the previous life in exchange for the passing of this life. Since he can meet the old man in front of him and the prematurely mature kid here, Su Ren's neck must have been broken in his previous life.

There are not many old people who rush in the middle of the night, and there are not many old people who wait in the wilderness early in the morning. Let's not talk about whether the old man has this spiritual head, just because he was not eaten by the wolves, insects, tigers and leopards in the Qinling Mountains last night, it has already proved that these two people are not simple. With the arrival of Su Ren's army, the young man's hand never left the hilt of the sword, looking at the few guys behind Su Ren with big shoulders and perfect faces, the young man's vigilance is absolutely necessary, and it is estimated that he was not so worried last night.

The old man is right, as long as you arrive in Chang'an, there are many opportunities to meet again. Su Ren smiled and nodded: "It seems that we have a future of being friends, in that case, can the old gentleman tell me your name?" There is also this little brother, so as not to know what to call it when you meet him. ”

"Also, old Mo Cong, this is the grandson Mo Yu."

"Sure enough, it's a descendant of the Mo family, seeing that the old man's age is not low in the status of the Mo people, right? You have to be an elder anyway! ”

"Hahaha, Su Zhonglang smiled, the old man is not an elder, he is an ordinary ink person, he is not a traitor, he does not abduct goodness, he makes a living from farming, and supports his family!"

"Really? I don't think so! The old gentleman's bearing is a big man at first glance, not to mention that he is still a descendant of the Mo family, how did he fall into such a situation? ”

"The Mo family respects inheritance, not the descendants of the Mo family can be elders, although the surname of the old man is Mo, it is indeed a side branch, even if it is passed down from generation to generation, it will not be passed on to the old man."

Su Ren nodded: "That's really the truth, so I don't know which one the current Mo family giant is?" The kid wants to meet, although the Mo family is heroic, but it is not without real talent and learning, the news of the organ is not lost to the public loser, last year in Chang'an I met a junior of the public loser, and the chat was very fateful, and he also respected the news of the Mo family. ”

"The lack of learning at the end of the micro is not enough to worry about, which makes Su Zhonglang smile!"

"I'm not talking big, legend has it that the public loss class had a confrontation with Mozi in the Song Kingdom, and Mozi won in the end, which shows that the Mo family's organ news is unparalleled in the world!"

Mo Cong shook his head and smiled: "This is a rumor, not an empirical evidence, as far as the old man knows, the ancestor has not had a competition with anyone who is a public loser, Su Zhonglang can't take the rumor as a fact, to say that this world is the first to build, except for the public loser!" ”

"The old gentleman is so modest!"

"It's not modesty, experiment!"

The two stood on the side of the road chatting happily, but the rest of them were tense. Mo Yu tugged at the corner of Mo Cong's clothes: "Grandfather, it's time for us to hit the road!" It's a wild place, and if you can't get out before dark, you're in danger! ”

Su Ren smiled: "Brother Mo is too cautious, there will never be any danger with my men and horses!" Besides, didn't you come here the same way last night? He turned back to everyone and said: "Since you know each other, you are fellow travelers, don't be so nervous, since you are going to Chang'an together, is it good all the way?" ”

Mo Yu looked at Mo Cong, and was reluctant in his heart, but listened to Mo Cong and said: "Su Zhonglang is warmly invited, and the old man is welcome?" ”

"Very good! The Mo family is the most mysterious of the hundred schools of thought, just discuss one or two with the old gentleman, please! ”

With hostages in hand, the security of the team can be lowered by one level, the scouts who have been scattered are brought back, and the long front team does not need to be highly stressed. Seeing that the giant was let into the carriage by Su Ren, and immediately a few strong men blocked themselves out, Mo Yu really wanted to do it. But before they stopped, the giant explained that he was not allowed to do anything without his orders. Taking a deep breath, he led the ox cart and followed the carriage far away.

Wuguan Road is endless, turning one mountain after another, walking through the boulevards, talking freely about topics of interest, and time always flies quickly. A small city in front of it suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain, not big or high, and from its dilapidation you can see how cruel it had been a hundred years ago.

After sitting in the car for a whole day, the carriage was too small and there were many people, even if the curtain was opened, the air circulation was still not good, not to mention that they had to sit cross-legged or kneel, which was nothing for others, but it was a torment for Su Ren.

"The small town in front of you is Lantian County?"

It was the first time to go to this place, and there were too many counties and counties that I passed, and no one could tell what it was, and no one followed Su Ren's questioning.

Mo Cong shook his head: "This is Shangzhou, and eighty miles further is Lantian, and when you arrive in Lantian, you will not be far from Chang'an!" ”

"Shangzhou?"

"It is Shangzhou, the high mountain in the northwest is the Qinling Mountains, the north is the Python Ridge, the south is the Liuling, the mountains are staggered, there are thousands of ravines, there are many ditches here, and they are big and deep, it is really not easy to build such a soil city!"

While hurrying, I listened to Mo Cong's introduction to the situation in Shangzhou. Although I don't know exactly what kind of place this is, it sounds like a very good place, with mountains and rivers everything, and it is absolutely blessed if it is developed for tourism. It's just that it is located in the deep mountains, and building a road is a big problem, and I don't know how much effort it took to bury the road under their feet.

Getting closer and closer to Tucheng, Liu Shuang's eyes were sharp: "Are those at the gate of the city soldiers and horses?" ”

Su Ren hurriedly watched, and sure enough, he saw a large group of people standing at the gate of the city, and the armor was by no means a county soldier stationed in the county seat. There was a gentle pat on the rider's shoulder, and the rider immediately grabbed the reins and stopped the carriage. It was a strange thing to encounter military horses in this place, and it was still a large group, between the narrow mountain roads, if those people wanted to attack, Su Ren's men would definitely suffer heavy losses.

Li Dang hurriedly ran over and bowed his hand to Su Ren and the others: "Sir, my brother will let you go over!" ”

"Who are those?"

Li Dang shook his head: "The person sent didn't ask, and he was beaten!" ”

"So arrogant?"

After getting out of the carriage, under the leadership of Li Kang, Su Ren took Huang Shisan and Manniu towards the front of the team. Li Danghu had already let the front team take a position, as long as those people dared to rush over, they had to tear off a piece of meat. Li Danghu, Wei Qing, and Gongsun He all frowned.

"What's wrong?"

"Hey! Meet a bully! Gongsun He said naughty, but he was helpless.

Su Ren looked at the three of them: "You know each other?" ”

"Sort of!" Li Danghu kept looking ahead: "He is the only one in the world who loves to wear red!" ”

"Who the hell?"

"Who else? Xiahou Pobei! This guy is a bastard, relying on the residual power of his ancestors, he dares to do anything, and he has completely lost the gentlemanly style of Xiahou's servant back then! The more Gongsun He said, the more angry he became: "You didn't meet him when you were in Chang'an, and this time it must be for you." ”

Su Ren scratched his head, and it was clear for a while that he really didn't know this person. I only know Xiahou Tang and Xiahou Yuan, as for who is Xiahou Po? I don't have any impression in my head.

Seeing that Su was confused, Li Danghu explained: "Xiahou Po is the descendant of Xiahou Ying, Marquis of Ruyin, and now he is attacking the Marquis of Ruyin, Xiahou's servant is the first Marquis of Ruyin, the old servant followed Taizu to conquer the world when he was young, and went to Pengcheng to pick up Emperor Hui in middle age, and personally drove Emperor Wen back to the dynasty in the last year, which can be described as a loyal minister of the third generation, who would have thought that when Xiahou Po was this guy, the face of the old servant was lost by him." ”

"Oh? It's him, why is he so powerful? ”

"What a fart!" Gongsun He spat at it: "If you can't do anything, you can't do anything, you fly eagles and lackeys all day long, and take a group of house slaves to do evil, if it weren't for the Empress Dowager and Your Majesty in front of him as the great-grandson of the old lady, even ten heads would not be enough to cut off!" ”

"Hehehe!" Su Ren suddenly smiled: "Looking at your appearance, you should have been bullied by Xiahou Po, right?" ”

"That's because we don't want to pay attention to him! He almost bullied this son! ”

Wei Qing didn't say a word just now, seeing that a few people were just talking about Xiahou Po, but he didn't want to do anything and was a little anxious: "What should I do now?" Do you really want to rush over? ”

Su Ren teased Gongsun He enough, shook his head and said: "Since he is a gentleman, there is no need to be familiar with him, he didn't say what he wanted to do?" It's good that the Marquis of Ruyin ran here to block the way, and it is indeed not something that ordinary people can do. ”

"I asked, I said it was waiting for someone!"

"Waiting for whom?"

Gongsun He shook his head and pointed to the scout sitting on the side: "Just because I don't know who to wait for, the black head asked one more question, and he was beaten like this!" ”

"This is strange, there seems to be no one else who has come from this road except us, who else can we wait for?" Li Danghu frowned: "I'll ask in person!" ”

Wei Qing hurriedly stopped and glanced at Su Ren. Su Ren suddenly realized: "Oh......! I see! ”

"What's wrong?" Gongsun He came over: "Do you know what this kid is crazy about?" ”

Su Ren smiled: "It's not us who came from this road, you forgot the two of the Mo family." ”

"This kid colluded with the Mo family?" As soon as Gongsun He's words came out, Li Danghu covered his mouth: "Be quiet!" He asked Su Ren again: "Then let the two Mo family pass, this kid had better not provoke." ”

"Why? What's there to be afraid of? ”

"You don't understand this, if it's just a fool and you don't need to do it, let's put it this way! Do you know how many princes are allowed to have private soldiers in our Han Dynasty? ”

"Isn't it true that everyone can have a family?"

Gongsun He smiled: "The family will be a general, the private soldier is different, the family will not wear armor, you look at the other side, what kind of dress are that kid's subordinates?" They are all covered in iron armor, which is wider than the two armies of the north and south, and there are eight hundred such in the family of the Marquis of Ruyin! ”

"Eight hundred private soldiers?"

Gongsun He nodded, "It was Emperor Wen who personally agreed, except that his house is in the north of Weiyang Palace, the closest place to the palace wall, who else in the world?" Last time, this kid killed someone, and the court lieutenants were all beaten out, and several were injured, and the imperial historians played impeachment, but in the end, it was not done, such a person is easy to deal with? ”

A few people muttered, but Xiahou Po on the opposite side couldn't wait, and the horse came closer, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "Give you a quarter of an hour to quickly give way, delay my friend, don't blame me for being polite!" ”
