Chapter 10 Treat each other with sincerity

"Ahh Yes!! Before Liu Xie entered the house, he heard the girl's frightened screams coming from the house, and Liu Xie hurriedly quickened his pace and walked in. I saw Zhao Yun stunned, and opposite him, an eight or nine-year-old girl shrank in the corner, her small body trembling.

"Zilong, you go out first." Liu Xie stepped forward and pulled Zhao Yun to persuade.

"Childe, that's my sister-in-law." Zhao Yun said with a sad face.

"I know, I know, this kid may have been frightened by what happened before, you go out first, I'll take a look." Liu Xie comforted and motioned to Dian Wei to come over and pull Zhao Yun out. Waiting for Zhao Yun to go out, Liu Xie slowly squatted down, keeping his eyes level with the girl who was shrinking in the corner, facing the vigilant girl, Liu Xie had a harmless smile on his face, and comforted softly: "It's okay, little sister, the bad guys have been driven away by me, don't be afraid." ”

Liu Xie slowly approached the girl as he spoke, his movements were very light, and he tried his best to be in the girl's sight, but when Liu Xie was about to reach out and pull the girl to stand up from the ground, the girl's movements were faster than Liu Xie's, and she grabbed Liu Xie's outstretched hand, opened her mouth and bit it, Liu Xie grinned in pain, I really wanted to cry out in pain! Just screaming in pain was finally held back by Liu Xie, as if the hand that was bitten was not his own, Liu Xie let the girl bite his right hand, and reached over with his left hand while caressing the girl's back and whispered: "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Perhaps it was Liu Xie's reassurance that made the girl believe that the person in front of her had no ill will towards her, so she slowly let go of her mouth, stared at Liu Xie's face in a daze, and suddenly opened her mouth and cried loudly.

Liu Xie patted the girl's back while continuing to comfort, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay to cry, it's okay to cry." ”

Although Zhao Yun was pulled outside by Dian Wei, his heart had always been worried about the little sister in the house, and when he heard the little sister crying loudly, he immediately couldn't help but want to rush out to see what was going on, but fortunately, Dian Wei knew the severity, and tried his best to stop Zhao Yun, and the two of them just stood at the door and looked inside. Seeing that Liu Xie finally appeased Zhao Yun's sister-in-law, Zhao Yun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and just wanted to enter the house, but was stopped by Dian Wei.

"Wait a minute, we'll see how it goes." Dian Wei didn't wait for Zhao Yun to ask. Zhao Yun thought about it when he heard this, turned around and went to find Xia Houlan to ask what was going on. You must know that there are three brothers and sisters in the Zhao family, and the younger sister is the closest to herself, why does she seem to be the most afraid of herself now, what happened here?

Xia Houlan was asked, hesitated for a long time, and then confided the truth. It turned out that after the thieves entered the village, they not only wanted to rob the food, but also wanted to rob the women, although Zhao Xiaomei was young, but also called the group of beasts to look at, Zhao Yun's brother then broke out, but he was outnumbered, and finally called the gang of thieves to harm, and Zhao Xiaomei escaped the catastrophe because of the rescue of her brother, but since then she has become a little crazy.

“…… Where's the bandits' lair? Zhao Yun asked Xiahou Lan in a cold voice.

"Zilong, don't mess around, that gang of bandits is overwhelming...... Xia Houlan couldn't go on halfway through his words, because he grew up and knew Zhao Yun's temperament, Xia Houlan knew that it was useless to say anything at this time in the face of Zhao Yun in anger.

"Zilong, you want to take revenge and help me, but now you have to help me first." As soon as the words fell, I saw Liu Xie walking out of the door with Zhao Xiaomei in his arms and said to Zhao Yun.

As soon as Zhao Yun saw his sister-in-law, he hurriedly walked over and asked, "Childe, how is my sister-in-law?" ”

"I'm tired of crying and fall asleep, let her sleep well first, and the matter of revenge will be discussed later."

“…… Childe, this is Yun's private matter......"

"Zilong, what you said is a bit outlandish, since you and I are now companions, then your business is the business of all of us. Brother Dian, are you willing to intervene in such a thing as eliminating harm for the people? Liu Xie interrupted Zhao Yun's words with a smile, turned his head and asked Dian Weidao on the side.

"Of course I do." Dian Wei replied loudly.

It's just this shout, but it woke up Zhao Xiaomei, who was picked up by Liu Xie from the house, and saw Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, Zhao Xiaomei's small mouth grinned, and she immediately wanted to cry again, Liu Xie hurriedly comforted: "Don't cry, don't cry, they are all good people, and they are all good people who protect their sisters from being bullied by bad people." ”

It's strange to say, Zhao Xiaomei didn't seem to recognize Zhao Yun at this time, but took Liu Xie as a reliance, shrunk in Liu Xie's arms and refused to look up at everyone. Seeing this, Liu Xie said to Zhao Yun: "Zilong, settle your sister first, and then let's discuss revenge." ”

Zhao Yun nodded and took Liu Xie to his sister's house. There was no way, he wanted to take over, but the girl now recognized Liu Xie, and as soon as she got close to her, she looked like she was going to cry, Zhao Yun didn't have a problem with this, and she hated the gang of thieves more and more in her heart.

finally coaxed Zhao Xiaomei to sleep, Liu Xie came out of the house, and saw that Zhao Yun and others were guarding the door, so he beckoned everyone to gather in the courtyard to discuss the matter of avenging Zhao Yun. Xiahou Lan said that there were a large number of bandits, there were three or five hundred, but Liu Xie also had a lot of people here, in addition to the soldiers who Liu Xie originally brought with him to trap the camp, at this time there were more two hundred cavalry sent by Gongsun Zhan, with these people, plus Dian Wei and Zhao Yun, two peerless generals, Liu Xie didn't think there was any problem in cleaning up the three or five hundred bandits.

However, Liu Xie is not worried about the head-to-head confrontation, but if that group of bandits fights with Liu Xie with a familiar terrain, Liu Xie will not have much time to deal with this group of bandits. Eliminate the evil, since you have decided to do it, you must cut the grass and eradicate the roots, otherwise as soon as Liu Xie and these people leave, this gang of bandits will sooner or later become a local evil.

The proposal to lure the snake out of the hole was approved by everyone, but how to lead the snake out of the hole made everyone a little difficult. It's okay to charge into battle, but how to deceive people is not what everyone is good at. Whether it is Zhao Yun or Dian Wei, they can't help but set their eyes on Liu Xie, although Liu Xie is young, but after getting along for a while, whether it is Zhao Yun or Dian Wei, they all know that they can't compare to Liu Xie when it comes to using their brains, and they all hope that Liu Xie can come up with a safe way.

"If you want a thief to be trapped, the best thing is to do what he likes, what the thief likes the most is nothing more than money and food women. Now that women can't prepare in this regard, they can only use their brains in terms of money and food......" Liu Xie bit his fingers while reading in pieces, and suddenly heard Dian Wei ask: "Childe, what's the matter with your hands?" ”

When everyone heard this, they looked at Liu Xie's right hand, and saw that there was a small tooth mark on the forearm of his right hand, and there was a little blood stain oozing from it. ”

“…… Childe, it's my sister-in-law......" Zhao Yun asked in a low voice.

"Ah, her current situation is obviously that she was overly frightened at the time, so she is seriously insecure about her surroundings now, and she will be able to recover slowly after a while, so you don't have to worry too much."

“…… Childe, is my sister really going to be fine? ”

"If Zilong is not at ease, when we finish dealing with those bandits, you can take your sister with me, and when you get to Chang'an, I will ask someone to take a good look at her."

"Childe misunderstood, Yun didn't believe Childe." Zhao Yun hurriedly explained.

"Huh...... Zilong don't worry, I know that you are concerned about it, in fact, I also sympathize with your sister. That's it, when this matter is over, you will take your sister back to Chang'an with me, and then I will ask the imperial doctor of the DPRK to diagnose your sister again. ”

“…… In this way, there is Lao Gongzi to bother. Zhao Yun saw that Liu Xie was resolute, and he was also very worried that his sister would fall into some kind of illness because of the thief, so he finally agreed to Liu Xie's proposal.

Seeing Zhao Yun nodding, Liu Xie couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, with a Zhao Xiaomei, he had another bargaining chip to keep Zhao Yun. Well, it's a bit inappropriate to describe it as a bargaining chip, but who let Liu Xie be one step late for Liu Bei, and let Zhao Yun meet Liu Bei first. With Liu Bei's method of winning over people, it is said that the current Zhao Yun has no intention of taking refuge in Liu Bei, and he does not believe it when he kills Liu Xie.

In order to retain the fierce general in his heart, Liu Xie is ready to do everything. Of course, he also knows that forcing people to conform is an inferior move, and only with meticulous care and meticulous care can it be possible to pull Zhao Yun's heart that is already biased towards Liu Bei to his side.

Zhao Yun didn't know what Liu Xie thought in his heart, but he just felt that Liu Xie was a good person with a warm heart, which was different from the children of the family he had met.

If you want to lure the snake out of the hole, you must be willing to give up the book, as the so-called reluctant daughter-in-law can't catch the pervert, Dian Wei quietly left Zhaojia Village alone after getting Liu Xie's general order, and Liu Xie continued to stay in Zhaojia Village in order to take care of Zhao Xiaomei, anyway, there are Zhao Yun, ten thousand enemies, and Liu Xie's safety is also guaranteed.

……

The bandits who attacked Zhaojia Village were entrenched in a mountain almost twenty miles away from Zhaojia Village, and the bandits also suffered a little loss in the battle of Zhaojia Village, and they did not grab much food, but they were killed and injured forty or fifty because of the resistance of Zhaojia Village, and the leader of the bandits was also injured a lot, but for the future of the cottage, the leader of the bandits did not recuperate in the cottage with peace of mind, but continued to stare at the bottom of the mountain, expecting that there would be fat sheep passing by.

Hard work pays off! Perhaps the heavens heard the prayer of the bandit leader, and on this day, a team passed under the mountain, and according to the minions in charge of stepping on the mountain, this team should be a caravan selling grain and grass, and twenty wagons loaded with grain were marching in the direction of Zhongshan County.

The princes were reluctant to fight the idea of a caravan, that was because the princes needed a caravan to transport urgently needed materials for themselves, and the bandits did not have this concern, catching one by one, if they really ushered in the official army, they drilled into the ravine for several months, and when the official army left, they were still the king of the mountain.

After making it clear that there were less than fifty guards in charge of escorting these grain wagons, the bandit leader decided to take his ticket, and the grain and grass of twenty wagons of grain and grass were rushed up the mountain to save some food for half a year, and it was worth taking this risk.

In order to avoid leaking the news and attracting the conquest and suppression of the official army, the bandit leader left a hundred and ten minions to guard the village, and the rest of the people were taken down by the bandit leader. Seeing that the grain team entered the ambush circle, the bandit leader shouted loudly and killed his men with his men.

The goal of the bandits is very clear, to grab the grain truck first, and then kill people. But when they rushed to the front of the grain cart, the cloth that covered the grain cart to prevent the grain from getting damp was lifted. There was no grain expected by the bandits on the grain truck, only teams of heavily armed officers and soldiers, and the bandits were greeted by waves of arrows.

The bandits who rushed to the front were shot by arrows one after another, and the bandits in the back saw that the situation was not good, and they didn't care about their companions who didn't know whether they were alive or dead, so they turned around and ran back, but the officers and soldiers were prepared, how could they easily run back to the mountain with these bandits who were finally led down the mountain.

Two groups of people you chase me, the bandit leader don't look injured in the body, but when fleeing for his life, he did not lose to the able-bodied person at all, he ran at the front of the team, seeing that the cottage was close in front of him, the bandit leader couldn't help shouting and shouting to the minions guarding the village to quickly open the door of the village and let himself in.

The gate of the village slowly opened, and the leader of the bandits saw a person standing in front of the gate of the village, and his heart suddenly became half cold, and he saw that the person was in silver armor and silver armor, and a white dragon horse in his crotch, and he was staring at himself with hatred at this time. The bandit leader has been in this business all too well with this kind of look. Although it is not clear whether the person in front of him has met with him before, the leader of the bandits knows very well that at this moment, either he dies or I die.

Let the bandit leader rush forward and fight hard? The bandit leader did not dare. But the leader of the escaped bandits still has no opinion, seeing that the white-robed young general urged the horse to come, the leader of the bandits immediately went to the dense forest next to the mountain road, there are officials and soldiers under the mountain, and the cottage is more and less auspicious at this time, and only by drilling into the dense forest can there be a glimmer of life.

Seeing that he could run three or five steps further into the dense forest, as long as he entered the dense forest, the bandit leader had the confidence to get rid of the pursuers behind him. It's just that it's such a distance of three or five steps, but it's so difficult to cross it, and an arrow hits the back of the bandit leader's head with great accuracy, and the arrow peeks out from his forehead......

Zhao Yun urged the horse forward, dismounted and cut off the head of the bandit leader, and then got on the horse again, glanced at the bandits who had surrendered to the official army one after another, and couldn't help but let out a long howl.

……

Liu Xie's strategy is very simple, that is, let Dian Wei go back first to gather the 200 cavalry who have not yet arrived, collect some carriages nearby, and let those cavalry abandon their horses and turn into infantry this time, and hide in those carriages with sharp blades and crossbows. After the bandits were led down the mountain, Zhao Yun led the soldiers of the trapped camp to break through the cottage, in order to ensure that the thieves who went down the mountain to rob grain knew about the attack on the lair in advance, Liu Xie also asked Xiahoulan to contact the hunters in the nearby villages, so that these people could guard the various main roads that could go down the mountain. It's a bit embarrassing to let these hunters go head-on against the bandits, but the hunters who have been plagued by the bandits are still happy to help if they set traps on the mountain to prevent the bandits from escaping.

As Liu Xie expected, the bandits were fooled, and the group of bandits who endangered the nearby Baiten miles were cleaned up, especially the bandits guarding the village, and even asked Zhao Yun to kill him. Liu Xie didn't feel disgusted by this, it was originally true, since he was a thief, how could he just eat meat without being beaten, since he ate this bowl of rice, he had to have the consciousness of losing his life.

This gang of thieves is also poor, and after counting the results, Liu Xie was really not interested in the capture of the three melons and two dates, so he simply gave a generous time, and gave all the profits collected in this battle to those hunters who came to help, this approach made Zhao Yun and Dian Wei can't help but glance at Liu Xie again, which Liu Xie did not expect in advance.

The revenge was avenged, Zhao Yun's original anger was vented, except for the little sister who was still a little afraid of him and frustrated him, most of the time Zhao Yun's mood was still good. Even his attitude towards Liu Xie has changed, and he has a smile when chatting, and occasionally mentions Liu Bei.

Zhao Yun was just chatting, but Liu Xie was vigilant, Liu Xie had never relaxed his vigilance against the big-eared thief in history who was good at buying people's hearts, and even felt that he was more difficult to deal with than Cao Cao. The golden scales are not the things in the pool, and the dragon changes when the wind and clouds change. It is still some years before Liu Bei will encounter the storm of his fate, but Liu Xie does not dare to fully believe the history he knows. You must know that history is like a little girl, which is allowed to be whitewashed according to people's preferences. It is only possible to study history infinitely close to the truth, but it is never possible to know what the real historical truth is.

The general trend of history helped Liu Xie to a certain extent, but because of this, he firmly believed in history, and Liu Xie knew that it was not advisable. Zhao Yun mentioned Liu Bei, and he had already revealed a convincing meaning from his words. This shows that Liu Bei really has the key to being stable and ruthless, how long has he known Zhao Yun? gave Zhao Yun a "hook-up" "heart-wrenching".

"Liu Bei? Zilong, I heard that he claims to be a member of the Han family, is there such a thing? Liu Xie asked curiously.

"Childe, Liu Yuanjun is loyal to the elder, and he will definitely not be the kind of rat who pretends to be the emperor." Zhao Yun said to Liu Xie with some displeasure when he heard this.

Seeing this, Liu Xie explained: "Zilong misunderstood, I didn't say that he pretended to be the emperor. It's just that this Wang Li Zhao is all over Liu, Liu Han has been around for hundreds of years, and the royal family surnamed Liu doesn't know how many there are. If Liu Bei is really a member of the Han family, he must know what his relationship is with the current saint, right? ”

"Hmm...... I remember that Liu Yuanjun seemed to say that he was the great-grandson of Emperor Xiaojing after King Jing of Zhongshan. Zhao Yun thought about it and said.

When Liu Xie heard this, he wrenched his fingers and calculated: "Emperor Xiaojing's great-grandson, well, Emperor Jing is Emperor Wen and Gaozu above, King Jing of Zhongshan below, and Marquis of Lucheng Pavilion ......" In the end, Liu Xie concluded: "That is to say, Liu Bei is the twenty-first grandson of Gaozu. After speaking, Liu Xie didn't wait for Zhao Yun to speak, and began to count Liu Xie's generation with his fingers, "Liu Xie's ancestor is Emperor Guangwu, the ninth grandson of Gaozu......"

"Ah, it turns out that Liu Xie is the seventeenth grandson of Gaozu. In other words, in terms of generation, Liu Xie is Liu Bei's great-grandfather, and Liu Bei is Liu Xie's great-great-grandchild. Well, when I go back to Chang'an, I have to talk to Zongzheng Liu Hong about this matter, and I will send someone to contact that Liu Bei first to see if he is willing to recognize Liu Xie, an elder. ”

Liu Xie was talking to himself, and Zhao Yun on the side already had a somewhat ugly face. Although there is nothing wrong with Liu Xie's words, the more Zhao Yun listens to it, the more awkward he becomes, when he worked with Liu Bei under Gongsun Zhan, Liu Bei called himself a virtuous brother more than once, which is several generations shorter, and it is inevitable that there is some resentment in his heart.
