There is a forest twenty miles outside the Yanping Gate of Chang'an City, although it is not a hunting ground, but the grass grows in autumn, and there are many wild pheasants and hares. Because it is close to the official road to the west, there are many farms of powerful families nearby. The magnates of Chang'an City rarely came here for hunting, and most of them were farmers and woodcutters who set up a cage and put a hare back to improve their food. There were no big beasts in the woods, and the pheasants and rabbits lived comfortably.

But today, the three knights who came from nowhere, galloped through the forest, shuttling back and forth. The yellow horse knight led by him, dressed in a purple hunting suit, with long hair curled, holding a copper slightly angled bow, with a carved arrow with a birch pole on the bow, the phoenix eyes scanned the surroundings sharply, and the arrows flew out like a millimeter, and there was no sound in the object. The flying pheasant rabbit that was startled by the three horses, as long as it was targeted by the phoenix eye, few could get away. With such a fierce appearance like the wind and a momentum like Yan, where can you still see the slightest shadow of the lazy Duchess on the carriage.

The red coat had already been removed, and the horse followed behind the red horse, only occasionally opening his bow and shooting an arrow. The last person was the Li family's tribe, and he also carried a bow, but he didn't dabble in it, just kept shouting to drive out the prey in the grass, and followed behind to help the hostess collect the prey.

The red arrows came out like locusts, but they went back and forth in the forest, and the two pots of arrows hanging on the horses were empty. Looking back, the red clothes had just shot half a pot of arrows, and with a sweep of the ring, he aimed at a wild pheasant fluttering in the forest in front of him. The red whip pointed at the red clothes and shouted, "Over there! ”

The red clothes looked at the horsewhip, took the arrow and drew the bow at will, the action was done in one go, and the white feather shot out, only to hear a whoosh, and disappeared into the forest......

The pheasants are still fluttering.

Red Whisk couldn't help but snort. The red clothes were slightly red, and they lightly clamped the horse's belly and chased after Mrs. Li. After chasing a few zhang, the red clothes took the arrow and took the bow again, exhaled and shouted, the arms were forced, the green tendons on the plain hands protruded, the bow was open like a full moon, the eyes were glaring at the target, and Song Xuan released the arrow! The arrow came out like a meteor, flashed, only to hear the sound of 'duh', fifty steps away, the arrow into the wood more than three minutes!

The pheasant flutters still.

Behind him came the sound of a red and unkind laugh. The face of the red cloth is as shy as a ripe apple in autumn, such a shy appearance, not to mention the whole Chang'an City, even the closest children of Lang Xuan have never seen it. Hongyi has been practicing swords with his master since he was a child, but he has never touched a bow and arrow. The first time I shot archery today, I skipped the process of target shooting practice and went straight to the most difficult horse archery......

Thanks to the excellent coordination of the body of the red-clothed dance, it was only after getting used to it on the horse that he got used to the rhythm of the horse's running, and he was able to shoot arrows with a bow smoothly, as for the accurate head, there was no need to think about it.

The two shots missed, and Mrs. Li's laughter was particularly pleasant. Seeing that the wild pheasant did not run far, the red clothes bit the silver teeth, abandoned the bow and whip, beat the horse and continued to chase. The white horse is well-trained, feels the owner's heart, and the four hooves are more urgent. I saw that the red clothes were separated from the stirrups, and the man was on the horse, and the hem of his clothes was lightly raised, and the red clothes were already holding the reins and half-squatting on the saddle. With her right hand loosened and her backhand, she pulled out the Yue Nu sword on her back, held the sword in her backhand, and put the tips of her feet on the saddle.

The horse is no more than two feet old, and the red clothes can already rise and fall with the rhythm of the horse's running. Seeing it from afar, the red whisk laughed and followed with a gentle pull on the reins. In the next blink of an eye, the red clothes on the white horse had already leaped up, and his body was dancing in mid-air, only to see a white light reflecting the sunlight in the forest, and suddenly shot into the forest.

In the next moment, blood flowed. The wild pheasant that had just risen was cut in half in the air, and before it could cry, it fell to the ground. The flying sword castrated and sank into the tree up to the hilt.

Look at the red clothes again, kicking on the trunk of the tree, leaping forward, the probe has reached the horse's buttocks, the flexibility of the dancer is shown again, one hand on the horse, the body suspended in the air actually rotates again, like a harrier turning over, the hem of the clothes hangs down with the wind, and the red clothes have sat back on the horse.

'Bang bang' applause came. Hongyi turned his head to look, and the flush on her pretty face didn't know whether it was shyness or unsettled breath. Red Breeze followed with the reins, and said with admiration on his face while applauding: "Your 'flying sword' technique can be said to be blue. ”

Hongyi turned his horse's head, bowed his head in the face of Hongfu and said humbly: "Madame has won the award." How can the red coat be compared to the master. ”

"Don't be modest." Red Whisk shook his whip, not caring about Red's humble words. But as soon as he finished speaking, the smile on his face became teasing: "But this archery, in my opinion, you don't practice." Go back and I'll find a craftsman to make you a box of short daggers, and you can take it and throw it away. ”

Red's face was like a ripe apple on a tree, and his head hung down to his chest, and he couldn't lift it. It took a long time before he said in a voice like a mosquito humming: "Walking the rivers and lakes in the future, it is too eye-catching to carry a bow and arrow......

"Hahaha, that's right, that's right!" Red Fu smiled, waved his hand at the following tribe, pointed to the woods and said, "Go, get the chicken in half, and use it to stew soup for the red girl to drink in a while." Ha ha! ”

The red whisk turned the horse's head and beckoned to the red clothes: "Let's go, seven chickens, five rabbits, presumably even two tigers are enough to eat." ”

Hongyi was stunned when she heard this, and forgot to be shy and looked up at Mrs. Li with a red face. Two tigers? Hongyi immediately thought of something, and opened his mouth to ask, but saw that Hongfu had already beaten his horse and left. Red Yi jumped off his horse and ran into the forest to retrieve his Yue Nu sword, and when he got on the horse again, Red Fu was already waiting outside the woods, and hurriedly whipped over.

"This pair of Yue Nu Swords is really suitable for you." Red Whisk waited until the Red Clothes and the tribe arrived, and led the way to the camp.

The red clothes are half a horse behind the red whisk, and his eyes glance at the red whisk from time to time, and he wants to speak several times and stops. Finally, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Madame, did you come out today just to hunt?" ”

Hongfu glanced at Hongyi, and said with a smile: "I thought you could calm down and never ask." The autumn sun was very warm, and the red breeze had just sweated, but it felt a little hot, so she took off the water bladder and poured it into a sip. The overflowing water slid down the slender neck and into the neckline. Put down the water bladder, wiped the water marks on his lips with his sleeve, and said to Hongyi: "Yun Xiaozi promised me to send the female tiger of the family to meet the big tiger of the family. It's almost time to arrive today, Chang'an City is now strictly checked, and I have to come out to greet it before I can rest assured. ”

Hongyi looked at Hongfu's side face, and had to admit that every move of this Duchess of the Kingdom, even if she drank saliva, she had a charming charm. sighed in his heart that only the heroic Wei Guogong who was both civil and military could be worthy of such a strange woman. couldn't help but think of another person: "It turns out that Li Gongzi left in the morning to join his tiger." ”

Hongfu listened to some of her daughter's thoughts revealed in this tone, and snickered in her heart, but she didn't explain. His eyes rolled and he pretended to say casually: "Yun Xiaozi's relatives and elders seem to have come together, you said to send the first tiger and say kiss to the two tigers, not to say goodbye to Yun Xiaozi, why are he elders coming?" ”

Hongyi was stunned when she heard this, and when she came back to her senses, she saw Hongfu's eyes looking at her, and noticed the teasing meaning in her eyes, Hongyi turned her head away with a cold face: "Hongyi doesn't know." ”

"We'll find out in a moment. I'm really looking forward to it......" Red Whisk chuckled for a while, suddenly looking at the western sky. At this time, it was past noon, the sun was slowly setting in the west, and a few white clouds were floating lazily, which was not very beautiful. Hongyi noticed the change in the atmosphere, turned her head to look at Hongfu, and only heard Mrs. Li muttering to herself with a little melancholy: "I don't know if I can see the cub of the big tiger born when my husband returns......"

Indulge in boldness like atmosphere, miss affectionately, who knows? Who has ever seen such a sensual Mrs. Li......

Not far from the woods, a blue curtain enclosed the camp set up by the Red Whisks. The cart that unloaded the horses was parked outside the tent, and a stream passed by the camp, and Luan Nier and the maidservants of the Guogong Mansion were busy by the stream. The campfire had risen, the water in the stove had boiled, and several dishes had been placed on a tray by Luan Nier.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves approaching, Rong Hyun came out of the curtain. Helping Hongfu hold the reins, he asked with a smile, "How was Madame's harvest today?" ”

"What kind of prey can this little forest have, it's just a tooth sacrifice for the tiger." Red Whisk turned over and dismounted, pointed to the red clothes who were dismounting, and said with a smile: "But the girl in red hunted a wild pheasant, and quickly let Nier stew it." ”

"Oh? The slave didn't know that the red clothes could shoot arrows. Lang Xuan glanced at Hongyi in surprise, a good sister who had known each other for many years, she had never heard Hongyi say that she could shoot arrows.

Hongyi turned his head unnaturally away from looking at Rong Xuan, and said indifferently, "I killed it with a sword." ”

"Oh, I say...... I thought you were a martial arts wizard and good at everything. Lang Hyun smiled disapprovingly. Together with Hongyi, he led the horse to the tent and tied it, and took the opportunity to mutter a few words to Hongyi, and Hongyi knew that he was being teased by Mrs. Li again. However, the two daughters thought that Li Luoyun left in the morning to join his family.

But then things turned out to be unexpected.

Luan Nier was busy stewing the chicken soup, Hongfu lay on her side on the bamboo mat, listening to the pipa music of Rong Xuan, and holding the wine gourd in her hand to take a sip from time to time. After a song, the sound of horses' hooves came from outside the tent, and then a member of the Li family reported at the tent.

"We found a convoy with Cheng Wu, the uncle of Li Gongzi, leading the horseback. and his son Cheng Mu was also in a carriage. It should be the Li family. ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, the red whisk got up: "How many people are coming?" ”

"There were two knights, and two carriages, about six or seven."

"Huh." Hongfu rubbed the green jade gourd, nodded thoughtfully and said, "It seems that Yun Boy is really valued in his family." Such a small and small thing, so many people came. ”

If Hongfu knew that Li Jiazhai had arranged for more than ten people to be on standby outside the mountain, I am afraid that Li Luoyun's thoughts would be different, so she would slowly understand this time.

"Go and call them over. Be clever and make your words clear, so as not to be misunderstood. ”

"No."

Hongfu watched the trilogy leave, and looked at the three women in red: "Yun Boy's family is here, I can tell you that Luo Yun's kid is not with his family, he is already in Chang'an County Prison at this time, and his family is also here for this." As for why I will explain to you when I go back, don't ask more questions for a while, and see what the attitude of the Li family is. ”

At first hearing the news, the three daughters of Hongyi, Lang Xuan, and Luan Nier were all taken aback, but before the three girls could ask, Hongfu had already stood up and walked out of the tent. The three girls glanced at each other, each thinking in their hearts, and before they could talk, they all got up and cleaned up and followed.

Facing the direction of the pipeline, there is no obstruction. Soon saw the Li family's motorcade. Seeing that the Weiguo Gongqu greeted him, the two sides negotiated, and an old man got off the carriage in front of him, and after a while, the group got off the official road and rushed to the camp.

Red Whisk's eyes were excellent, and he looked at the two knights from a distance. I quickly recognized one of them as Cheng Wu, who I had seen a few days ago. When he looked at the other person again, his pupils shrank slightly, and his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of vigilance. "This Li family doesn't seem to be as simple as you think......"

The eyes of the red cloth were not much worse, and he nodded when he heard the words. His eyes stared at the big man on the horse, thinking of Li Luoyun's appearance, and couldn't help but say: "It doesn't look like a family......

"Heh......" Hongfu chuckled and nodded in agreement. Li Luoyun is thin and polite. But this horse is a knight, tall, shirtless on his upper body, and he is training his muscles. The left hand holds the reins at random, and the right hand holds a wrist-sized whistle stick, which rotates endlessly with the flexible swing of the five fingers. The hands alternated from time to time, from the chest to the back, and no matter how the horse ran under the crotch, the knight's upper body remained still, and the spinning whistle stick did not affect the mount in the slightest.

"With such riding skills, it is more than enough to be a ranger captain in front of my husband's tent. I just don't know how to shoot. ”

Hongyi listened to Mrs. Li's comments and looked at the knight's legs: "If the fur fur was not bought, then this big man's archery skills should be much better than that of a slave." ”

Redwhisk also noticed the knight's tiger skin leggings and nodded. Look at the first carriage again. It's still the car Luo Yun sat in when he entered Beijing before, but the person who got the good car was not Cheng Wu's son, but another sturdy man. The last car pulled the cart was a green ox, this car was quite deeply rutted, and it seemed that the contents of the car were heavy. It was Cheng Mu who was driving.

As the convoy approached, Cheng Wu recognized the red whisk and spoke a few words to the other knight. He dismounted and walked more than a dozen feet away, and the carriage also stopped, and the old man before also got off the carriage with the support of the young man who was driving, and took the lead in walking over, and did a full salute.

"The old husband Yunshan Li Guangxiong, with his nephew Li Zhenan, nephew Li Kun, Cheng Wu, Cheng Mu father and son have met Mrs. Li. Thank you Mrs. Lee for taking care of my grandson. The old lady led everyone to bow to Mrs. Li from a distance of ten paces, and her words were sincere, not like a fake.

Hongfu took a few steps forward, stretched out his hand and said, "The old man doesn't have to be polite. I also fell in love with Luo Yun's child, and I wouldn't have taken a second look at someone else's begging for me. This time Yun Boy can be regarded as an unwarranted disaster, but since he has a choice, it is inconvenient for me to stop it. If you don't blame me, my husband doesn't blame me. ”

"How dare you. Speaking of which, Yun'er made her own opinions, and she was also tired of Mrs. Li. Li Guangxiong gave another salute.

The red whisk waved his hand and was about to beckon everyone into the tent to rest, but when the curtain of the ox cart was lifted, a woman with a beautiful face came down. I saw that the woman's face was calm, and although her expression was a little haggard, her hair was meticulously combed, and although her dress was not noble, it was clean and tidy. Walking to the front with lotus steps, bending down and saluting, every move is reasonable and modest, not like a rough woman in the mountains. Hongfu thought that this was Luo Yun's mother, and subconsciously glanced back at Hongyi. But I heard the woman's crisp voice say: "Cheng Yang, a folk woman, meet Mrs. Li." ”

"Uh...... Cheng Yang's? You are ......"

"The woman is Cheng Wu's wife and Cheng Mu's mother. It's Yun'er's aunt. Yun'er's parents died in the mountains a few years ago, and it was a woman who took care of Yun'er to grow up. This time, Yun'er was in trouble, and the women thanked Mrs. Li for her protection. After speaking, Aunt Mei knelt down and was about to kowtow to Hongfu.

"No." Hongfu was in a hurry, although he was stunned for a moment, but then reacted and hurriedly stepped forward to pick up Aunt Mei. "I didn't do anything, you don't have to."

Aunt Mei raised her head and looked at the red face carefully, compared it with the impression in her mind, the past came to her heart, sighed gloomily, lowered her head, stood up and slowly retreated behind Cheng Wu without saying a word.

Red Whisk was a little surprised, but she didn't ask at the moment. Whether it is the mighty and majestic Li Zhen'an, the old lady of the Li family who walks with the wind in good spirits, or the aunt Luoyun who has a thorough manner, they are all a little different. It's not that they are very special, but they are far from the performance of the ordinary people of the mountains and wilderness imagined by Red Whisk.

It was no accident that there was a strange Li Luoyun running out of the mountains, and there must be a secret behind this Li family.

"You have worked hard from afar, and you have prepared food and wine in your tent, so let's go in and rest first. Li Luoyun was taken into custody and imprisoned by Chang'an County at noon today. If you have any plans, we can also discuss them first. ”

When everyone in the Li family heard the news of Luo Yun's imprisonment, they all changed color. Li Guangxiong knew that this was the case, so he could only sigh and appease everyone. He bowed to the red whisk and said, "I'm tired of Mrs. Li." ”

"It doesn't matter." Red Whisk leaned sideways and stretched out his hand to greet him. The evening breeze blew, and the red cloak was raised, and it passed through the horns of the green ox and stirred the curtain of the carriage. The next moment, the tiger's roar resounded through the forest in an instant.

The horses scrambled and neighed. When everyone present just reacted when they heard the sound and turned their heads to look, the curtain rolled out, a black shadow flashed, and the dark blue tiger Xiaoyou was already half-crouched in front of the red whisk! Hu Wei did not restrain himself, and the four war horses of the Patriotic Mansion rose to their front hooves, broke free of the reins, and turned around to run.

"Madame Protection!" The guards of the Patriotic Mansion could not take care of them at this time, they were accompanied by tigers every day in the mansion, and the purpose of this trip was also prepared, and they were not scared stupid, so they drew their swords and grabbed their bows and rushed forward at this time. The red cloth reacted the fastest, and as soon as the black shadow landed, she had already drawn her sword to block in front of Mrs. Li. She had seen the power of this tiger with her own eyes, and if it really attacked it, these people would definitely not be able to stop it.

"Xiao Yu!" Cheng Mu pounced and hugged Xiao You's waist. As soon as he saw Xiao You's posture, he knew that it was not good, although he didn't know what happened to make Xiao You so excited, but he must not let Xiao You hurt Mrs. Li.

Cheng Wu and Li Zhen'an saw that a guard opened their bows and arrows, and hurriedly stepped forward to block in front of Xiao You, "Xiao You, don't mess around!" ”

Xiao Yu did not move, a pair of eyes from the Netherworld contained evil energy, passed through the barrier of everyone, and firmly locked on the red whisk. Another low tiger roar sounded, and the thick threat was like a cold snap coming in advance, sweeping the whole field, and the guards of the Guogong Mansion felt that they were in a trance in front of them, and a few horses that had just broken free had not run a few steps, they fell to their knees with a poof, raised their heads and howled a few times, lowered their horses' heads, and honestly lay on the ground.

"Whew~" Another tiger roar sounded, and Zhenyue hit the curtain and landed in front of the car. Glancing around, he slowly walked around to the flank of the crowd, vigilantly staring at several parts of the Weiguo Mansion.

Hongfu faced Xiao You, did not panic, and looked at Xiao You with a slight frown, not knowing what the tiger suddenly went crazy. However, when Zhenyue appeared, his red eyes lit up, and he no longer paid attention to Xiao You, and his eyes kept moving with Zhenyue. Looking at its fur, muscles, and eyes, the more I looked, the more satisfied I felt. When Zhenyue stopped, Hongfu sensed its intentions and couldn't help but admire it in his heart.

The other people in the field were not as leisurely as Hongfu, Cheng Mu found that Zhenyue also came out, hurriedly greeted him, and ran over to stop him. Li Kun replaced Cheng Mu and hugged Xiao You. followed Xiao You's gaze to Mrs. Li, and his eyes lit up and he saw the green jade gourd hanging on Mrs. Li's waist.

"Ma'am. You're wearing my Brother Yun's medicine gourd? ”

Hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look at Hongfu, who raised his eyebrows when he heard this, took off the green jade gourd on his belt, crossed the red clothes, and handed it to Xiaoyou. Cheng Wu bowed and took it with both hands.

Li Guangxiong bowed and said apologetically: "Madame forgives her sins, she has offended a lot." My grandson's medicine gourd is a token given by a senior, and the medicinal wine it contains is also specially brewed by the predecessor to treat Yun'er. Yun'er has always been a personal collection, and the two gourds are either on Yun'er or Xiaoyou, never fake the hands of others. Hence ......"

"Don't get me wrong, Mr. Li." Hongfu waved his hand and supported him, signaling Li Guangxiong to excuse himself, then turned his eyes to look at Xiao You, and said with a smile on the corner of his lips: "Don't misunderstand, you little guy." I didn't snatch this gourd. It was given to me by your master in the morning. After speaking, he looked at Li Guangxiong and explained: "Luo Yun went to surrender, worried that the county government officials would make it difficult. Therefore, he handed over the gourd to me for safekeeping. Since you have come, I should give it back to you. ”

"Thank you, Mrs. Lee." Everyone in the Li family, including Aunt Mei, saluted and thanked him, which gave Hongfu a new understanding of the meaning of this gourd.

Wave your hand to make the red clothes and the tribe withdraw their defenses. watched Cheng Wu carefully hang the gourd on Xiao You's neck with a thin rope. This black blue tiger really regained its might. Everyone in the field intuitively felt that the cold hair on their bodies was loosened, and their backs were soaked with sweat for a moment. Red-clothed secretly breathed a sigh of relief and put his sword into its sheath. Turn around and look for the four horses.

Xiao You made such a fuss, and the scene was somewhat embarrassing. The red whisk didn't care, after signaling what the servants should do and what to do, they walked leisurely towards Cheng Mu and Zhenyue.

"This is your Zhenyue? It's mighty! So smart! But it's much more energetic than my big tiger. Alas, I don't know if I can take a fancy to my big tiger. ”

"Madame...... This ......"

"Whew~" Zhenyue let out a low voice, raised his head and licked Cheng Mu's side face. Cheng Mu endured the pain with a bitter face, and reached out to scratch Zhenyue's chin. He didn't dare to push Xiao You and Zhenyue away when they were expressing their intimacy like Luo Yun.

Hongfu couldn't help but cover her lips and smile, and when the husband and the big tiger frolicked, it was also a headache for the big tiger's licking habit. As he was talking and laughing, there was movement behind him. Hongfu looked back and saw that Xiao You had already come behind him, followed by Li Zhen'an and his son.

Xiao You glanced at Hongfu, walked around her to Zhen Yue's side, and licked the fur on Zhen Yue's head. Hongfu's eyes jumped, and he looked at Cheng Mu with a nervous expression: "Didn't you say that they are siblings?" ”

Cheng Mu was stunned when he heard this, and replied inexplicably: "That's right, Brother Yun said it when he brought it back, but it was born from a child." ”

Hongfu didn't know how to explain, staring at Xiao You nervously, thinking that this guy was roaring in the mountains and forests, how many tigresses could not be found, and he shouldn't be able to attack his sister. saw Xiao You leaning into Zhenyue's ear, and a whining sound came out of his mouth. Zhen Yue's ears were ridged, and his eyes were no longer lazy.

It's like a parting admonition, and it's indeed a parting admonition. Because then Xiao Yu straightened up and ran towards the woods without looking back. No matter how many people shouted, they would not stop. The black shadow quickly scurried into the woods and vanished.

"But you want to chase after it on horseback?" Red Whisk looked into the distance, surprised by Xiao You's speed. asked casually, but he also understood that he couldn't catch up at all.

"When the tiger enters the mountains and forests, no one can find it." Li Zhenan shook his head, thinking that this trip might not be peaceful.

"We've been delaying for a long time. It seems that everyone has to go back to the city to rest. If you don't leave, I'm afraid you'll have to close the city gates. ”

"It's up to Madame's arrangement!"
