Chapter 138: Back to the Deserted Village

Meng Xiaotian was supposed to keep vigil tonight, but he felt that there could be any danger in this deserted village, so he kept watch until midnight and went back to his room to sleep. He has a relatively rough temperament, and if his brother Meng Datian keeps vigil, he will definitely not go into the house to sleep in the middle of the night.

Wang Ping'an's urine was frightened back, turned around, and said, "Second Brother Meng, I just saw a person outside the wall, not from our team, maybe a thief!" ”

Meng Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, then patted his waist, and found that he didn't come out with a knife, so he hurriedly ran into the house, took out the waist knife, and his brother Meng Datian also walked out!

Meng Datian said: "No disease, what do you see?" Because Wang Ping'an did not have an official position and was young, the Montessori brothers and Mi Xiaomiao called him his cousin, so that they seemed close, and secondly, they were all official people, and it was not good to be too humble to Wang Ping'an, and they were suspected of sycophancy.

Wang Ping'an pointed to the big tree outside the courtyard and said, "There was a person watching us just now, and when he saw me, he jumped on the tree and ran!" ”

The Montessori brothers were stunned at the same time, and said in unison: "Jumped up the tree and ran?" Seeing Wang Ping'an nodding, the brothers exchanged glances, silently, one climbed over the wall, the other went to the door, separated the two, and outflanked the direction of the big tree!

Seeing that the two people went to catch the thief, Wang Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief, the urge to urinate came again, unbuttoned his pants, and solved the internal emergency.

After a while, the two Montessori brothers ran back again, and Meng Datian said: "No disease, it's dark and late at night, is it because you are sleeping in a daze and are dazzled?" ”

Meng Xiaotian said: "I didn't see anyone, and the tree is very tall, it is not difficult to say that it is not difficult to climb up, but if you jump up, this is unlikely, right?" ”

Wang Ping'an sighed and nodded: "Maybe I'm sleepy, so I'm dazzled." After a pause, he said, "Brother Meng, Second Brother Meng, you are all masters of the inner court......

The two brothers shook their heads together, and Meng Datian said with some embarrassment: "Which of us are masters, if we are masters, our boss will not send us...... Well, the average master! ”

Actually, he wanted to say that if his brothers were masters, the captain would not send them on this errand, how could he send a master to protect a little eunuch, don't look at Mi Xiaomiao's shouting and drinking, it's just a matter of responsibility, if it is changed to an internal servant, then it is possible to send a master!

Wang Ping'an looked at the big tree outside the wall and asked, "Then when you were in Chang'an, was there a master in the army who could turn a somersault and climb the big tree?" ”

Meng Datian turned his head, looked at the big tree again, and said: "If you run a few steps and then jump up, there are dozens of such masters, but if it is a somersault, then ......"

Wang Ping'an added: "It was a backflip, and I jumped up directly!" ”

The Montessori brothers grinned at the same time, and Meng Datian shook his head and said, "Then no, I have never seen such a master in the army!" ”

Meng Xiaotian said: "Our soldiers in the Tang Dynasty pay attention to being born from a good family, but they are not like the Xiaoguo Army of the former Sui, what kind of gangsters are accepted!" ”

Wang Ping'an frowned, and asked again: "How do you talk about the Xiaoguo Army of the former Sui, is there such a master in the Xiaoguo Army, how can you call them gangsters?" ”

Suddenly, I heard someone behind me talking: "You don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you muttering in the yard?" Mi Xiaomiao stood at the door with sleepy eyes.

Meng Datian hurriedly stepped forward and told him what had just happened.

Mi Xiaomiao was no longer hazy, he said: "I know this kind of person, that is the character in the Xiaoguo Army." Not to mention the big trees, even the city walls are overturned! When he mentioned the anecdotes of the previous dynasty, he talked more.

"It is said that there are a lot of light heroes and evil boys in the Xiaoguo army, all of them are gangsters, fierce as wolves!" Mi Xiaomiao remembered the old eunuch in the palace and told him about the past.

He compared it with his hand and said: "I heard that some gangsters in the army are known as meat flying immortals, holding a pole more than ten zhang long in their hands, and they can jump up more than ten zhang from the ground, fly directly over the city wall like a big bird, jump into the city, and kill on a large scale. ”

Wang Ping'an sizzled a breath, and calculated in his heart, how long is more than ten zhang, I'm afraid it has to be more than 30 meters, how can someone jump so high!

He nodded first and said, "Of course what Master Mi said is true, since it is written in the book, it will definitely not be wrong if someone can jump more than ten zhang high." After a pause, he said: "It's just that if you want to find a pole more than ten zhang long, it's a little difficult, such a long pole, if you want to keep jumping, how thick it is!" ”

Mi Xiaomiao heard Wang Ping'an say this, and it was clear that he didn't believe it, and he wanted to argue, but he thought that he had the kung fu to say this on the eve of the big night, so it was better to go back to sleep. Said casually: "So, there will be no such person in this world at all, you must be asleep without illness, take the things in your dreams as true, okay, let's go back to sleep!" ”

Meng Xiaotian pressed the knife on his waist and continued to keep vigil, while Wang Ping'an and the three of them went back to their rooms. Wang Ping'an lay back on the bed, but kept thinking in his heart: "I must be right, there are indeed masters in the world!" ”

In the second half of the night, there were no accidents, and when it was dawn, everyone got up, ate breakfast, left the deserted village, and hurried forward again.

didn't go far, Wang Ping'an stopped Hamiti, and when he talked about last night's incident, he said: "Master Ha, it's not my crow's mouth, I think let's go another way, find a densely populated road, although it is far away, but at least it is safer!" ”

Hamiti thought for a while and said, "That's okay, anyway, we're not in a hurry, walking more is like a tour of the mountains and rivers, but do you want to ask Master Mi?" ”

Wang Ping'an said: "I'll ask, when you go out, you should be careful, if you can have less trouble, try to be less!" He hit his horse to the front of the team and went to ask Mi Xiaomiao.

Mi Xiaomiao was timid, and after listening to Wang Ping'an's question, she was also a little stunned, so she immediately agreed, let's take a detour! The convoy immediately turned around and returned the way it came.

When I crossed the deserted village, I didn't go far, but I saw that more than a dozen big trees had been released on the road in front of me, blocking the road tightly, and people and horses could pass, but the carriage could not pass!

Wang Ping'an was in a hurry and said: "It's all my crow's mouth, the good ones are not bad spirits, this is obviously a robber eyeing us!" ”

Hamiti's face was ugly, but he said: "How can I blame you, it's obviously me who is wrong, I have lived for such a long time, I have walked countless times, and I actually made the mistake of detouring around the mountains and encountering forests!" ”

Mi Xiaomiao was also anxious, looked at the big trees on the road, and said: "This, what should I do, the number of thieves who can put down so many big trees must be a lot!" ”

The people behind also panicked and stepped forward one after another to check the road. Qiu Tingxuan said: "What's the matter? Ah, this is someone trying to pull the road and rob it! ”

Zhao Bi said: "The book says that thieves don't kill the coachman's feet, so it's better for everyone to quickly change their clothes and pretend to be a coachman!" ”

Lu Xiuzhi said: "Otherwise, throw off the cart, let's take a detour and escape!" ”

With a snap, Meng Datian shook his horsewhip and said angrily: "How can this be true, why do you just think about escaping, and you still have a bit of manly spirit?" There are so many of us, are we still afraid of little thieves? If it spreads, where is the dignity of my Datang soldiers? ”

The soldiers in the early years of the Tang Dynasty were different from other dynasties, they had always been the first in the world, and no one was afraid! If the danger does not come, then they may be cautious and take precautions, but once the danger comes to the door, the soldiers of the early Tang Dynasty will never retreat, even if the enemy is outnumbered, they will definitely fight to the death with the enemy! It is with this spirit that the territory of the Tang Dynasty has expanded step by step, established a huge empire, and created the name of the Celestial Empire!

Meng Datian has always been steady, but this does not mean that he will retreat in the face of robbers, as a soldier of the forbidden army, even if he faces hundreds of robbers alone, he still draws his sword and charges, brave and fearless!

Soldiers are soldiers, ordinary people are ordinary people, and the other people in the team frown together, although the degree is different, but everyone is afraid, but it is true!

Mi Xiaomiao hurriedly said: "What's the matter, hurry up and say a charter?" ”

Wang Ping'an thought for a moment and said, "Brother Meng, Second Brother Meng, it's useless for us to just talk here, we still have to explore it first, why don't you two take a few people and explore the road ahead?" ”

The Montessori brothers nodded together in agreement, took a few strong men with good skills, dismounted and climbed out along the rocky trenches on both sides of the road.

Ding Danruo got out of the car, grabbed Wang Ping'an's pants, raised his head and asked, "Young master, are there robbers?" ”

Wang Ping'an hurriedly said: "It's okay, you go back to the car and stay, close the car door with Lianwu, don't get out of the car without permission!" Ding Danruo hurriedly agreed, turned around and ran back to the car!

It took a long time for the Montessori brothers to return with their people. Their faces were no longer nervous when they went out, but relaxed. Meng Xiaotian said: "Sure enough, it's a little thief, there's nothing to worry about!" ”

Meng Datian said: "There are no thieves outside, and there are no spies, it is estimated that although there are many robbers in number, but their combat effectiveness is extremely poor, they cut down so many big trees, just to force us to give up the cart baggage, and then they can pick up a bargain, and they have no intention of coming up to rob it!" ”

Wang Ping'an frowned and said, "You mean that we have to turn around again, and we can't give up our luggage because of some thieves with poor combat strength?" ”

Meng Datian said: "Of course, if we don't even see the shadow of the thief, we will be forced to lose our luggage, and we will be able to do what we will do, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows, you don't have to go to Beijing to make a name for yourself if you are not sick, this name will be known to the world directly, and it will be told as a joke!" ”

Mi Xiaomiao said: "Otherwise, let's move these big trees away, it is estimated that one day is enough!" ”

The people in the team shook their heads together, isn't this still afraid, and throwing down the luggage and running away, the process is different, but the result is the same, it's still a shame to pass it out! Qiu Tingxuan and their entry into Beijing this time are all to "seek a confidant", they are most afraid of this kind of thing spreading out, people who are as timid as a mouse, who is willing to be a confidant with them?

Wang Ping'an sighed and said: "This is really a dilemma, you have to go into the mountain when you turn back, and if you don't look back, you will be used as a laughing stock!" It's good to be at home for a thousand days, but it's difficult to go out for a while, and the ancients don't deceive me! ”

Mi Xiaomiao bit her lower lip and said, "Master Ben has the highest grade here, so let me be the master!" He glanced at Wang Ping'an, Zhao Bi and others, and thought, "I guess you all don't want to be laughed at, am I willing?" ”

He waved his horsewhip and shouted, "What a thief, what a foot, you are afraid, but Lord Ben is not afraid!" Go back, wipe out this gang of thieves, and return me to the Tang Dynasty! ”

This was said in a nondescript manner, and everyone laughed together, turned their horses' heads, and walked back to the deserted village.
