Light and December of the third year,. М//

At the end of the year, Chu Yan lit a pine oil lamp, which made the room a little warmer.

Although charcoal was distributed, Chu Yan was reluctant to use it. He is convinced that the more privileged the environment, the more difficult it is to maintain a hard life. A comfortable life can make people unmotivated, but he is a person with a strong sense of initiative. Or rather, ambition? Chu Yan couldn't say clearly, but she always retained her simple living habits.

Speaking of which, he was born in a family with a decent family background.

His father was a squire in Zhending and was quite prestigious. But later, after the three-year drought in Changshan, the officials sent by the imperial court not only ignored it, but also continued to loot the people. My father was beaten to death by the government at the entrance of the yamen because of his arguments.

Since then, Chu Yan's family has been ruined and lost in the rivers and lakes.

Fortunately, when he was young, he learned military books from others, and made a good marksmanship. After three years of wandering, he is also alive and moist. The officials who destroyed his family in the past have been killed by him. As a criminal wanted by the imperial court, Chu Yan took refuge in Zhang Niujiao of Taiping Road three years ago, and with his own skills, he was favored by Zhang Niujiao.

The year my father died, it was also snowing like this.

Chu Yan picked up the golden gun with a tiger head and strode out of the room.

Standing in the courtyard, the mood became particularly gloomy. He wielded a spear. brought up a ray of light. The head of the spear trembled, and seven or eight spear flowers danced. The big gun was like a dragon going out to sea. Fly up and down. Chu Yan felt that the official who killed her father was standing in front of her, her chest was full of anger, and she shouted loudly, and the sound of guns and wind danced with the snow all over the sky.

"Good, make the land good!"

Just when Chu Yan's dancing gun was emerging. Someone next to him suddenly shouted and applauded.

The big gun fluttered and the python turned over, Chu Yan retreated and turned his head to look to the side. I saw a middle-aged man standing with his hands in his hands, smiling at him.

"Father-in-law, when are you coming back?"

Chu Yan was very happy to see that person. This middle-aged man is the northern handsome of Taiping Dao, Zhang Niujiao, from a poor family, but he has a good martial arts. He is also outstanding in the art of war. He has a straightforward temperament and is deeply trusted by Zhang Jiao. It is in Taiping Road, except for the three brothers of Zhang Jiao. One of the only two figures who can stand on his own, he is as famous as Runan Zhang Mancheng.

When Chu Yan came to vote, Zhang Niujiao took a fancy to him at a glance, not only entrusted him with important tasks, but also accepted him as a righteous son.

And this Chu Yan is also very competitive, which proves Zhang Niujiao's vision.

Now. Chu Yan is the commander of Zhang Niujiao's pro-army, and is also known as Xiaoqu Shuai, and even the three Zhang Jiao brothers have heard of his name.

Chu Yan was very grateful to Zhang Niujiao.

Without Zhang Niujiao's grace, there would be no place for him today.

Therefore, when I saw Zhang Niujiao, I was very happy. In addition, I used all the way to marksmanship just now, and the gloom in my heart was also dispelled a lot.

Lifting the big gun, he stepped forward to salute Zhang Niujiao.

Zhang Niujiao hugged Chu Yan and said with a smile: "Feiyan's hand-locked throat gun is getting more and more beautiful, and I am really happy to be a father." ”

"It's not that my father-in-law teaches well!"

Zhang Niujiao laughed and waved his hand to signal the relatives behind him to retreat. Pulled Chu Yan into the room, and his brows suddenly furrowed. A little unpleasantly said, "What did those people do?" Why not light a brazier in your room? ”

Chu Yan hurriedly said, "Father-in-law, this is Yan's idea. Yan remembers. When I was a child, I listened to my father read, and one of the passages was like this: The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, and starve their bodies and skin...... I think that's a good point. Those who achieve great things must always be vigilant, greedy for enjoyment, and will lose their fighting spirit. ”

Zhang Niujiao nodded again and again, "What my son said is good." ”

"They sent them coals, but they didn't want to use them. But since the father-in-law came, he immediately ordered someone to send it. ”

After a while, there was a brazier sent by Chu Yan's relatives, adding a little warmth to the room.

Chu Yan asked, "Father, the great sage and good teacher came to you overnight, what happened?" ”

Zhang Niujiao's expression darkened, and he sighed and said, ">:|Have you even heard of being attacked?" ”

Chu Yan nodded, "I've heard some of them." ”

"And what do you think?"

"Opinion?"

"Today is just a casual conversation between you and my father and son, if you have something to say, you don't have to worry about anything. God knows, you know and I know. ”

Chu Yan thought for a while, "The cause of the incident is not very clear, and I only vaguely heard people mention it, it seems that Yang Li Damu forcibly seized other people's property and killed other people's families." As a result, the other party's friend killed Li Damu's nephew for revenge...... The child thought that we were wrong from the beginning. Not to mention the forcible seizure of property, it is easy to arouse public anger and expose our details. The most important thing is that Li Damu should not mobilize the power of the dojos of various states for his own personal vendetta. I am worried that in this way, our strength will be completely exposed and attract the attention of the imperial court. ”

"That's not necessary," Zhang Niujiao thought for a while, "There is Feng Zhen and Xu Feng mediating in the middle, and the court is too much of a movement." Those geldings have taken so much of our benefits, and if they can't do this, what is the use? ”

Chu Yan nodded, "This is just one of them. ”

"And what about the second one?"

"From the news of the attack on the Luguo Dojo, the child has been paying attention to this matter. I always feel that there is a mystery in this...... Those people seem to have done this on purpose so that we can pay attention to them. But why should we pay attention to them? The child feels that this is not simply revenge, but deliberately attracting our attention and covering up something. ”

Zhang Niujiao nodded appreciatively again, "My son is really smart, and he is worthy of his father's recommendation in front of the great sage and good teacher." ”

"Recommended? What do you recommend? Chu Yan asked puzzled.

Zhang Niujiao was not in a hurry to answer, but after a moment of silence, he asked again: "I'll talk about this later." For the Father, I ask you, is there a third? ”

"Third, when I look at the actions of the other party, they are all well-trained, and I can see that those people are not the mountain village husbands mentioned by Li Damu, let alone some rogue ...... The child is worried that Zhang Zhangba is a reckless person, and he may not be the opponent of the other party. The child read the reports carefully, and found that the other party was not only brave, but also quite resourceful, and was afraid of ......"

Before Chu Yan's words were finished, he heard Zhang Niujiao sigh.

"I observed, and sure enough, it was carefully. I didn't even pay attention to these situations before, and thought it was a rebellion. I didn't expect ......."

"Father-in-law, what happened?"

Chu Yan had a bad premonition, looked at Zhang Niujiao and asked.

"The great sage called me and told me two things. First, something was stolen from someone in East County last month. ”

"What's that?"

"A list...... Someone stole a list full of Yang officials and clans loyal to us. ”

When Chu Yan heard this, she was shocked, "Is this serious?" ”

"This second thing, three days ago, Zhang Zhangba and Tao Pinghan led three thousand Yellow Turban wrestlers to pursue each other, but they were accidentally ambushed in Guangling. Those people are really vicious, and they burned to death my 3,000 elite Yellow Turban wrestlers, and Zhang Zhangba and Tao Pinghan died in battle. Although the news has not yet spread, believers in Xuzhou are already panicking. ”

Chu Yan's face turned white.

"Father-in-law, this is definitely not the work of a small group of rogues, it must be the court that is eyeing us. It is imperative to confirm where the list is going. If the list flows into Yang, then the forces we have worked so hard in Yang will all disappear. ”

Halfway through the words, Chu Yan suddenly stopped talking.

He seemed to understand something, and got up and was about to speak, but was stopped by Zhang Niujiao.

"Feiyan, the matter of the list is handled by the Great Sage and Mentor himself. The whereabouts of the list are uncertain at this time, and it is only known that the people who stole the list are now fleeing with them. After the burning of Guangling, the whereabouts of those people were suddenly unknown. We are about to start an incident, and preparations are also being made for soldiers, horses, grain and grass in various places. But now the believers are shaken, and if they can't kill those people immediately, the prestige of the great sages and good teachers will also be greatly damaged. ”

Chu Yan wanted to say: The list may have been sent to Yang.

But he still held back, because he also knew that Taiping Dao had today's momentum, and Zhang Jiao's prestige played an important role.

Zhang Niujiao said: "For my father, I have ordered people to strictly guard the main roads leading to Yang in the three states of Qing, Yan and Henan. You don't need to worry about the list, as long as the list appears, Feng Zhen and Xu Feng will naturally try to deal with it. It's just those thieves, someone needs to deal with them. Your uncle Zhang Mancheng is now fully engaged in the military affairs of the south. The things in the area from Runan to Nanyang are cumbersome, and I'm afraid he won't be able to free up his hands for a while. Therefore, the Father recommended you to the great sages and good teachers, and you are responsible. ”

Chu Yan thought about it and felt that the list should not be a problem. =[=谞

It's just that he is still a little worried in his heart, and he always feels that this matter is not as simple as he imagined.

"Feiyan?"

Chu Yan suddenly came to her senses, got up and arched her hand: "Father, it wouldn't be difficult if you didn't deal with this matter, but the child wanted to know, Xu, Yang, and Jing could all cooperate?" If so, the child would have been able to find those people and kill them. ”

"The Great Sage and Good Master has ordered that you can deploy the dojos in the southern states at will, except for military affairs, the dojos everywhere need to cooperate with your actions and obey your command. This is a decree from Heaven sent to you by the great sage and good teacher, with which you can mobilize the manpower of various states. ”

Chu Yan took the gold medal in Zhang Niujiao's hand, and after taking a look, he solemnly put it in his arms.

"Father-in-law, rest assured, the child will take the thief's head and come to his life."

Zhang Niujiao smiled slightly, got up and patted Chu Yan on the shoulder and said, "I naturally believe that you can do it, and as a father, I will listen to your good news at home...... In addition, this matter should be carried out as soon as possible, and it is best for you to pack up overnight and take people to set off as soon as it is dawn. Chu Yan thought for a while, bowed down and said, "Oh! ”
