Chapter Forty-Eight: Descending the Mountain
Everyone walked towards the entrance of the cave, Bei Mao had already taken the lead in going out to check the situation outside the thatched house, and Nangong Hongyun was also at the entrance of the cave ready to receive everyone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Everyone who was still in the house was about to go down the cave, when suddenly, Li Shengdi's words came from behind them, and everyone stopped and turned to look behind them.
"Second brother, come with us." The sons who were supporting Ye Cheng shouted anxiously.
Ye Cheng also looked at Li Shengdi with an anxious face, he persuaded twice, but he failed to persuade him away, and Zhu Zi'an's persuasion seemed to be even more difficult to do.
I really don't know why Li Shengdi is often bullied by Li Shengtian, but he can still follow him so persistently. Is it because of brotherhood?
After Zhu Zi'an began to persuade, the rest of the brothers also began to persuade, and even Bai Yingping joined in. But Li Shengdi still stood in place expressionlessly.
Ye Cheng knew Li Shengdi's determination. He patted Zhu Zi'an's hand, and said in a low voice, "Brother Zi'an, let me go first"
"What are you going to do?" Zhu Zi'an slowly let go of his hand.
Ye Cheng did not answer his words, but walked towards Li Shengdi face to face.
Seeing Ye Cheng coming step by step, Li Shengdi said lightly, "Eighth brother, you don't have to persuade me anymore, I won't ......"
"Let's shake the handlebar"
Without giving Li Shengdi a chance to finish speaking, Ye Cheng stretched out his right hand to interrupt him as he approached him.
continued, "Second brother, it's great to meet you first in this world. There will be a fierce battle in Zhongyi Village next, and I really want you to go with me, but after the first two persuasions, I already know what you think, no matter how much I persuade you, you will not follow me."
Ye Cheng's tone became slightly heavier, "So I want you to promise me that when facing the grain army and the wolf's tooth village, don't come forward, and wait for me to come back alive." ”
"What is a handshake?" Li Shengdi looked at Ye Cheng's right hand and said with some hesitation.
"A handshake is a kind of etiquette that has many meanings, including reluctance to give up on friends. I don't want this departure to be the last handshake between you and me, and I want to shake hands with you again every time I reunite with you."
After listening to Ye Cheng's explanation, Li Shengdi slowly stretched out his right hand. The two hands were clasped tightly together, and their eyes were looking at each other.
Although Ye Cheng and Li Shengdi met at the earliest, they did not stay together for long. Ye Cheng saw that he was being bullied by his brother, and he always had the idea of standing up for him, maybe Li Shengdi was in a weak position, and Ye Cheng would have this feeling of pity.
But Ye Cheng clearly knew that he wanted to cherish the friend in front of him. Not because he is weak, but because Li Shengdi cares about him and is willing to give up his life for him.
"Eighth brother, I promise you, I will live well and wait for you to come back" Li Shengdi withdrew his hand after speaking, and said in a low tone, "Hurry up, and when the eldest brother finds out that something is wrong, he will send someone over again."
"Eighth brother is gone" Zhu Zi'an came over and supported Ye Cheng, then looked at Li Shengdi, and said worriedly, "Second brother, be careful yourself, after confirming that the village is fine, we will come back quickly, you must wait for us to come back"
"I promise you"
After bidding farewell to Li Shengdi, everyone went into the hole dug by Beimao one after another. After Li Shengdi saw everyone leaving, he hurriedly sealed the entrance to the cave, walked out of the door, and walked towards the brightly lit blacksmith shop.
..............
"Eighth brother, give me your hand" Zhu Zi'an stood outside the entrance of the cave, stretched out his hand into the cave, and helped Ye Cheng out of the hole.
Ye Cheng came out of the cave and saw everyone standing in the woods behind the thatched huts. Now there is only a wall between the place where they are standing and the house, and they have not left Zhongyi Village, if someone enters the house just now, they can still hear the movement.
So they quietly walked in the woods under the leadership of Nangong Hongyun, relying on the faint moonlight.
After eating some food, Xia Meng had already woken up and rested on the back of Zhu Ziye. Ding Yuxuan also fell asleep on Bai Yingping's back because of exhaustion, and the stubborn female shopkeeper was unwilling to let people carry it, so she followed Ye Cheng closely and walked behind everyone.
"Eighth brother, do you want to take a break" Zhu Zi'an, who was supporting Ye Cheng, asked with concern.
Ye Cheng's feet gradually felt very weak, and his panting was a little short, but he still held back, "I'm fine, go back to the carriage and rest." Now I don't know what the situation is in the village, if the poisonous spirit protects the body, I'm afraid the whole village will be in danger."
"Hee-hee"
Suddenly, Zhuzi An laughed. Ye Cheng looked up at him and asked, "Brother Zi'an, what are you laughing at?" ”
Zhuzi An laughed and said, "Eighth brother, are you worried about those children, or are you worried about the girl An who was reluctant to give up on you before." Her beauty is comparable to that of Miss Xia, and I want me to say it, you can marry both of them."
"Brother Zi'an, when is it, are you still in the mood to joke. If I marry the daughter of the village chief, will you be willing? ”
"Yes, of course I do," Zhu Zi'an replied flatly.
"We are willing too"
"Yes, we agree, haha"
......
The four brothers of the various families who were walking in front also coaxed when they heard what they said. Ye Cheng was speechless, didn't these five strong men who looked much like each other have a sense of crisis? Or is this how they remove the sense of crisis?
"Everyone, we have gone down to the bottom of the mountain" Suddenly, Nangong Hongyun's shout came from the front.
Everyone hurried to speed up, walked out of the woods, and stood on a path at the edge of the woods.
Nangong Hongyun pointed to the left hand side of the trail, "This is the road to Shangzhongyi Village" and pointed to the right, "The road leading to the back mountain here, I have to go and pick up my father first, and there are a few carriages in front, we can use them to rush the road"
"Carriage?" Ye Cheng was a little strange, so he asked Zhuzi An to help him walk in front of Nangong Hongyun and asked, "May I ask General Nangong, are there six carriages you are talking about, and two are coffin cars?"
"yes, how do you know?"
"That's our carriage" Suddenly, Ye Cheng looked at Nangong Hongyun in shock, "Have you seen more than a dozen thieves next to the carriage?"
"Your carriage!" Nangong Hongyun was a little surprised: "Could it be that the coffin is lying in the body of General Bai?" But we didn't find anyone near the carriage. ”
"Now, those five stinky boys, they must have seen that we haven't come down the mountain for so long, so they went to find something to eat by themselves," Zhu Zi'an said with a little anger.
"Is this how your apprentices take care of the carriage?" At this time, Bai Yingping walked over with Ding Yuxuan on her back, and said with a slightly angry face, "If the remains of my stepfather and stepmother have something that is long and short, I will definitely not be able to spare them."
Seeing Bai Yingping, who was so angry, Zhu Ziju hurriedly stopped in front of him and explained, "Brother Bai, please dissipate your anger." Although the five boys were playful, they were very clever, and something must have happened, so no one was left to watch the carriage. Let's go over and see before we make a plan."
