Chapter 164: The Old Man Comes

Just before noon on this day, in the wild forest outside Huangzhou City.

Although today is already a small year, there is little snow in Huangzhou this winter, and the official road is dark and white, but it is frost frozen by the cold wind.

More than 200 sergeants wearing Japanese uniforms and armor escorted ten carts pulled by two oxen and two green oil trucks carrying people to march in formation.

Under the guidance of a donkey rider, the team quickly stopped outside the wild forest next to the road, and the officer got off the donkey and came to the red-robed silver-armored young general who led the ride on a jujube-colored high-headed horse, and pointed in the direction of the wild forest and said: "Envoy Liu, the place where the crime occurred is here." ”

The red-robed young general is wearing a Western army-style cold-forged company armor, the heart shield on his chest and the beast head armor on his shoulders are pasted with rotten silver, and a bunch of colorful pheasant tails are erected on the standard pocket on his head.

I saw him nodding to the official, but he turned back to the young man riding a black war horse beside him and said, "Ninth brother, order the whole army to rest on the spot!" Let's go and have a look! ”

The young man was also wearing a standard cold-forged armor, but the armor was an adult model, and he crossed his hand and said, "Order!" ”

Then he turned around and shouted to the sergeant along the way: "The master has orders!" Rest on the spot, quickly raise the fire to roast food, don't freeze! ”

When the sergeants heard this, they quickly moved from the official road to the side of the road, and after setting up their weapons, they assigned men to collect firewood and fires, and soon several bonfires were lit.

Then the boy rode his horse back to the forest, dismounted, handed the reins to the servant, and walked in quickly.

In the wild forest, Xu Yan was telling the red-robed young general about the murder that happened here more than ten days ago, because he had just told an opening, although the young man was a step late, he did not lack the wonderful part. The official spoke for almost a quarter of an hour before and after, and then he explained the situation at that time, and everyone also came out of the wild forest to the side of the road, and naturally there were servants who brought the baked bread and heated broth to everyone, and after the red-robed young general ate a small piece of bread with the broth, he said to the young man: "Ninth brother, what do you think?" ”

The young man was also eating and drinking with the broth on the bread, and when he heard this, he stopped, and said without thinking: "Brother, those who are now serving in the Privy Council are all elite of the Divine Guard, and this matter must be committed by a traitor!" ”

The red-robed young general nodded and said, "Not bad!" According to the rhetoric of the little Abscar in Namacheng County, all the elites of the thirty divine guards were ambushed, and none of them escaped, and they used forbidden weapons, so only in this way did it make sense. ”

The young man thought about it, put down the soup cake and said, "It's just a little bit, my brother thinks it's strange!" Even if it is to extinguish the mouth, why do you use a forbidden weapon to expose the flaw, is it not possible to use ordinary arrows in this divine arm bow? ”

"It's successful, but the power has to be discounted!" The red-robed young general simply put down the soup bowl in his hand, rubbed his chin and said: "From the point of view of Brother Wei, this group of successful people should be chasing all the way and robbing and killing here, and they don't have time to make more plans, the number of people should not be much." ”

The young man also frowned and said: "There should be no less than twenty people and ten pairs of divine arm bows, I heard that there are still a few people's heads that have been shattered and unrecognizable, it should be Neiying." ”

It was also when the two brothers were discussing, only to see a young lady in Tsing Yi coming down from a green oil car, and saluted after coming and said: "I have seen General Liu Yu and General Liu Qi, and the young lady has come to ask the two generals, I don't know how far this place is from Huangzhou?" ”

The red-robed young general named Liu Yu got up and saluted: "This place is already in Huangzhou, less than thirty miles away from Huangzhou City!" After taking a breath, it's time to go straight! ”

After getting into the car, she said to the young lady who was sitting in the car: "Sister Twenty Niang, listen to General Liu Yu said that this place is already in Huangzhou, less than thirty miles away from Huangzhou City. ”

The little lady in Tsing Yi said, but saw that the young lady's expression was not moving, and she seemed to be stunned, so she shook and said, "Twenty Niang, wake up quickly!" ”

Twenty Niang was shaken awake, and after screaming, she heard the little lady in Tsing Yi laugh and said: "Sister Twenty Niang, but you are still thinking about the last life of Su Ge Lao and letting her sister marry that Huang Dalang?" I heard that Huang Dalang is not yet fifteen years old, and if Sister Twenty Niang is unwilling, she will not marry him. Yu saw that General Liu Yu was not bad, he was a good man who could hurt people, but General Liu Qi was also a good person, why don't you ask General Liu Yu for her sister? ”

"Sister Qinghe, don't talk nonsense!" Twenty Niang was annoyed when she heard this, so she stretched out her hand and pushed the little lady in Tsing Yi, and said, "How can the ancestor's last order be violated?" Just now...... Fang Caiyu was thinking...... Thinking about something else. ”

Qing He sneered when he heard this, stretched out his hand and shook Twenty Niang and said, "Sister Twenty Niang, my sister has been a maid in the Taiwei Mansion for many years, and it is much more visible. Lang Jun like General Liu Yu is now unavoidable, and he must grasp it, and General Liu's family is the envoy of the Luchuan Army, so this kind of family and Twenty Niang are also a good match. ”

"Sister!" Twenty Niang's face turned red when she heard this, but she didn't know how to justify. Since coming out of Tokyo City last month, Liu Yu and Liu Qi, the two brothers, escorted Su Lianniang and his party south to Huangzhou, and had a lot of contact with them along the way.

It was only said that the team had rested, and then they also put out the bonfire and went back on the road, because the destination was in sight, and they had eaten and rested, and the thirty-mile journey was completed in just over an hour. After entering the north gate of Huangzhou, Liu Yu showed the waist card of the Taiwei Mansion and asked the doorman to lead the way to the mansion of Bo Yaozheng, the lord of Huangzhou.

I didn't know that I walked to the front of the house to lead the street, and I was blocked by the long street wedding banquet along the street, and I asked to know that Yao Zheng's nephew's family was holding a happy event today, and I heard that it was going to accept the famous Oiran lady in Huangzhou as a concubine.

When Liu Yu heard this, he also went to the green oil car with a strange look and told Su Lianniang about it, and then let the team retreat to the side of the road, and then let his younger brother Liu Qi take the famous thorn to Yao's mansion.

After a while, Yao Zheng led Huang Dalang to lead him, first asked Yao Rong to lead more than 200 Japanese soldiers to the camp in the city to rest, and then welcomed Liu Qi and others into Yao's mansion.

Although there were only more than 20 people who entered the Yao Mansion, the things that could be unloaded from the ten double-oxen carts shocked everyone. But seeing that there were not only boxes of books, calligraphy and paintings unloaded from the car, but also a lot of golden stone bamboo slips and inscriptions, Su Lianniang even held a scroll of paintings and handed them to Yao Zheng and Huang Dalang sadly, only saying that the things left by her ancestor Su Che were all on the picture scroll.

Yao Zheng and Huang Dalang unfolded the picture scroll to take a look, but it was a landscape figure: I saw the mountains in the south of the Yangtze River like smoke, a person holding an umbrella and walking alone, like watching the scenery, the child was driving a few piglets on the road, in the rice field next to the road, several farmers were busy farming, and there was still a little cooking smoke on the top of the farmhouse in the distance.

The blank inscription is Su Shi's "Ode to Pork": clean and wash the bell, less water, and the firewood can't be smoked. Don't rush him when he is familiar with himself, and he is beautiful when he is full. Huangzhou is a good pork, and the price is as cheap as dirt. The noble refuse to eat, the poor do not understand how to cook, get up early in the morning and play two bowls, so that they are full of their own kings.
