Chapter 44: The Tiger Wounded
In the gathering of a large number of people who play fun, it is particularly lively here, and some young people with strange hearts will go to sit for a while and feel the admiration of the crowd. Nangong Yan stopped beside her for a moment, and her heart was tickling: "Brother, I'll try it!" ”
Seeing that the crowd around him was crowded, and the cruise ship could only be on one at a time, Nangong Bao wanted to refuse, but seeing Nangong Yan's eyes glaring, tears rolling in his eyes, Nangong Bao couldn't stand it.
After hesitating again and again, Nangong Bao could only agree, took out three small coins, and asked Nangong Yan to go up and have fun.
The owner of the cruise ship took the three little money, grinned, opened the staircase, Nangong Yan jumped up with an arrow, which alone attracted a burst of exhalation, after Nangong Yan sat in, the cruise ship owner commanded a few small guys to step on the windmill behind the curtain of the cruise ship, Nangong Yan was on the cruise ship slowly rising, with the water and fog, under the halo of various flowers and lights around, for a moment, Nangong Yan was as beautiful as a spirit girl in the sky, so that some onlookers of scholars and nobles shouted one after another.
In the cheering and envy of the surroundings, Nangong Yan, who was rising and falling in the cruise ship, suddenly leaned back, only to hear the sound of 'poof', Nangong Yan fell into the water under the bamboo pole, seeing this scene, Nangong Bao was stunned, and immediately reacted, he immediately issued an order, more than a dozen families will quickly disperse, forcing back the crowd, Nangong Bao rushed to the stage with an arrow step, and the owner of the cruise ship with one hand: "What are you doing as a thief?" What about people? ”
"Your Excellency... This... This... It was the girl who jumped on her own... It's none of my business... It's none of my business..."
Hearing this, Nangong Bao jumped into the cabin, leaned down and went straight down, and sure enough, he saw a figure in the water behind the cruise ship, swimming towards the streets and alleys on the opposite bank. ”
In the river, Nangong Yan swam hard, but after a few breaths, she swam to the opposite side, and after climbing ashore, she looked wet and drenched so that the surrounding tourists did not know So, Nangong Yan sneezed, looked back, Nangong Bao had already led people to get on the horse and rushed to this side, Nangong Yan was in a hurry, plunged into the crowd and ran away, the appearance of falling into the water made passers-by look sideways, guessing which girl was running crazy at this moment!
When Nangong Yan was about to reach the intersection of the streets and alleys, several generals had already intercepted from other directions, Nangong Yan glanced around, and just saw the cavalry patrolling and stabilizing the people coming from a distance, Nangong Yan immediately pounced on him and shouted: "My lord, those thieves are chasing me!" They're going to arrest me and sell me into the Red Mansion! ”
Hearing the shout, Huang Qi, the battalion captain of the Xiao cavalry, looked carefully, on one side was a little woman who fell into the water and embarrassed, and on the other hand was a strong man on a horse, so Huang Qi did not answer, and the brothers under his command had rushed up and stopped those people, and when he turned around and detained the woman Nangong Yan again, he found that the embarrassed woman was gone.
Cavalry camp.
Lin Xiu ran back with Lin Huaiping and his own soldiers, and from afar, he saw the soldiers of Emperor Xiaowu stationed in front of the camp gate, Lin Xiu rushed into the camp, and Huang Han was carrying those dead horsemen under his command.
Lin Xiu's heart trembled in disbelief, he ran to Huang Han: "General, this... What's going on? ”
"I don't know, I came back from patrol, and I saw that your camp was on fire, so I came to put out the fire, as for who killed these people, I don't have a clue yet!" Speaking of this, Huang Han said in a deep voice: "Lin Xiu, how many tiger striped Qingyue knives do you have?" ”
"A handful?"
"Where?"
"Forgot about the camp, didn't bring it!"
As these words became deeper and deeper, Lin Xiu's heart trembled more and more, and Huang Han said suspiciously: "This is strange, in front of the wooden house behind your camp, there is a charred corpse with your tiger stripe Qingyue knife hanging on it. ”
"The general... I can see... The corpse..."
"Yes!" Huang Han ordered someone to carry it, and said: "Lin Xiu, it's really strange that you are living in camp this time, these dead Xiao cavalry armorers are basically killed by crossbow arrows, that is to say, someone has come to steal your camp with a sharp weapon in the crossbow army!" ”
When the words fell, the corpse with the tiger stripe Qingyue knife was lifted in front of the knife, Lin Huaiping glanced at it, and retched in his heart, even if they fought in the north and killed countless people, but when they saw the charred corpse in front of them, they were still slightly uncomfortable, but what Lin Huaiping didn't expect was that Lin Xiu actually trembled, and then he saw two tear stains sliding down Lin Xiu's cheeks.
"Brother Xiu, who is this?"
But Lin Xiu was silent.
"General, my father and mother died early... There was an eldest sister before, but in order to save my life's rations, she married herself off indiscriminately, and now I am a loner... But you're right, when we send them to the north, I'll look for my eldest sister and let him take a look, and I'll be promising..."
With such words echoing in his ears, Lin Xiu opened his eyes for a long time, Huang Han looked at him, and his heart was shocked, Lin Xiu's eyes were bloodshot, he tried his best to suppress the pain in his heart, and said to Huang Han: "Huang Shen General... Did you find him in front of the hut in the back? ”
"Exactly!" Huang Han thought about it carefully: "Around him, there are more than a dozen other corpses, but they are all scorched by the fire, and it can be guessed from the remains of the armor that those people should be the ones who came to steal the camp!" By the way, there was a woman alive in the hut, but she had passed out from the fire..."
"Where's the woman?"
"It's in front of the tent!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiu said to Lin Huaiping: "Place this corpse well, and after this incident, I will personally bury him!" Then he came to the tent.
In the tent, Luo Miaoxin was lying on the couch in the dark, Lin Xiu went up and looked at her slightly gasping chest, he knew that she was still alive, and then he said: "Bian Hong, look at her so much..." Why did I ask you to come back and get the Tiger Striped Blue Moon Knife... Who the hell is it? To do such a cruel thing..."
"Your Excellency forgives your sins, your subordinates are clumsy, and you collide with your lordship..."
When Nangong Bao showed his waist card, Huang Qi directly dismounted and knelt on the ground, knocking on the ground, but Nangong Bao was in a hurry to chase Nangong Yan, and he didn't hit Huang Qi at all: "Get out!" ”
In the face of such scolding, Huang Qi was furious, but on the bright side, he could only endure it, otherwise a crime of colliding with the noble prince could take his head, after Nangong Bao left with his general, Huang Qi got up and got on the horse, and behind him, Huang Yuming scolded hatefully: "Big brother, Lin Xiu is now doing these inspection orders all day long... He himself is fine, sneaking out of the city and back to the camp..."
Hearing this, Huang Qi felt that something was wrong, he knew that Lin Xiu's current situation was not very optimistic, Geng Liao was in a trap at all times, this time he ordered the army, he dared to go back to the camp privately, after a little thought, he felt that something was wrong, and Lin Xiu was really fatal to them, so Huang Qi said to Huang Yuming: "You take people to continue to patrol here!" ”
