Chapter 66: Back to the City

When the forbidden army of Qingfeng Town escorted the bandits of Qingfeng Mountain back to the unloading stone shed, Zhang Tongju and Liu Tuanlian were overjoyed, and all the bandits in the three mountains were exterminated, which was quite a political achievement, and the two immediately sent people to rush back to Qingzhou City to report to Lord Zhizhou.

The Sanshan bandits were captured in one fell swoop this time, and more than 300 bandits were captured, and they were not exempt from a long night's dream, Zhang Tongju and Liu Tuanlian immediately set off, and took the township soldiers to escort the captured bandits, got up and returned to the city, of course, it was indispensable to send a team of Qingfeng Town forbidden army to escort them along the way.

This time to suppress the bandits, the credit of the forbidden army of Qingfeng Town is indispensable. Commander Huang took the brigade of forbidden troops back to the Qingfeng Town station, waiting for the reward of the imperial court, leaving the deputy commander of Qin with the black-armored cavalry and the infantry armor of Yidu, escorting Zhang Tong to escort them back to the city with the bandits.

Cui Ye and Liu Xu also returned to the city with Zhang Tong's team.

Qingfeng Mountain is more than 100 miles away from Qingzhou City, and everyone has many prisoners, so the speed is naturally not fast. By the time the team arrived in Qingzhou, it was almost dusk.

This is the first time Liu Xu has ridden a horse, but fortunately, Cui Feng found Liu Xu a tame old horse from the stone unloading shed, and Liu Xu can still ride it hard. However, the distance of more than 100 miles, although it was a slow ride, but when he arrived at Qingzhou City, Liu Xu, who was riding a horse for the first time, still felt numb and difficult to sit down. However, Liu Xu saw that Zhang Tongju and Liu Tuanlian had made the two old literati still able to persevere, so he didn't have much to say, so he had to grit his teeth and insist.

With more than 300 bandits who cut their hands back, plus many heads hanging on the black-armored knight's horse, Liu Xu and his team caused a huge sensation when they entered Qingzhou City. Qingzhou City has been peaceful for decades, and it is rare to see a forbidden army with bright armor appear in the city, not to mention that this team also carries three hundred prisoners and many heads.

The spread of news in the city of Qingzhou was extremely rapid. It's just that when it's dinner time, the restaurants, tea shops, and Goolan tiles all over Qingzhou are already talking about the extermination of all the bandits in the Three Mountains.

After entering the city, Zhang Tongju and Liu Tuanlian commanded the sergeants, escorted the bandits, and went to the state government to hand over. Liu Xu and Cui Ye are not people in the public gate and in the army, this time the Sanshan bandits were destroyed, and the two of them also contributed, maybe there will be rewards in the state, but that will be a few days later, and now there is nothing for them to do for the time being. The two immediately told Zhang Tong to sentence them to leave and leave.

Cui Ye originally wanted to invite Liu Xu to Zuiyun Tower, invite him to eat and drink, and suppress his shock, but Liu Xu was afraid that Xu Jin'er would be worried, so he made an appointment with Cui Ye to call Wang Zeng tomorrow, and the three brothers went to Zuiyun Tower to get drunk, so they hurriedly went to the Xu Martial Arts Hall.

When Liu Xu came to the backyard of the Xu Martial Arts Hall, Xu Jin'er was sitting at the table with his parents eating.

When Xu Jin'er saw Liu Xu coming, she couldn't help but be overjoyed, she couldn't care about being shy, and jumped up and hugged Liu Xu tightly, lest he disappear again. Liu Xu felt Xu Jin'er's affection, and hugged Xu Jin'er tightly, at this time, he seemed to have a thousand words, but he couldn't say a word. In this way, the two hugged tightly, quietly, without a word, but they felt each other's concern in each other's hearts.

After a long time, Xu Yanxin coughed, and the two came back to their senses.

Xu Jin'er looked at her parents and saw that the second elder was staring at the two of them, she couldn't help but be embarrassed, and her face was flushed. Liu Xu was also a little embarrassed, he was embarrassed for a while just now, and he forgot that his parents were still beside him, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Xu Yanxin continued to speak, relieving the embarrassment of the two, Xu Yanxin said: "Brother Xu is back, and I'm worried about us these days." Hurry up, let's not eat yet, sit down to eat first, and talk while eating. ”

Liu Xu hurriedly sat down at the dining table with Xu Jin'er to eat.

The four of them chatted while eating, and during the banquet, Liu Xu and Xu Jin'er talked about how they were tied up the mountain by the bandits of Qingfeng Mountain, and a series of things they later experienced in the stone unloading shed.

Xu Jin'er couldn't help but be a little teary-eyed when she heard Liu Xu's dangerous experience, Liu Xu disappeared in the past few days, Rao is Xu Jin'er, an optimistic and cheerful girl, and she has cried countless times.

Xu Yanxin listened and said: "Brother Xu suffered this time, but fortunately, Brother Xu finally had no danger this time, which is a great luck." It's just that I didn't expect Hei Niu to be so righteous, but it's a pity that Hei Niu is a good man. "Hei Niu used to be an idle man in Qingzhou, but Xu Yanxin also knew him.

Liu Xu said: "The Sanqingfeng Mountain Tiger is already dead, caught, Gu Laosi is also dead, and the revenge of Big Brother Hei Niu is half avenged." is to let the culprit Su Qingpin run away, my father-in-law's martial arts hall is well-informed, and I also asked my father-in-law to help find out the whereabouts of Su Qingpin, how can I catch him to avenge Big Brother Heiniu. ”

Xu Yanxin said: "Don't worry, tomorrow I will let people start to go out to inquire about the whereabouts of Su Qingpin's house." ”

Liu Xu talked about his desire to come to the martial arts hall to learn martial arts, and after this incident, Liu Xu urgently felt that it was necessary to learn martial arts.

Xu Yanxin listened to Liu Xu's words, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Xu, you are smart and clever, and you are talented, you should study hard, after all, studying is the best way out." To learn martial arts, you have to work hard to lay the foundation from an early age, and I'm afraid it's too late for you to learn now. Jin'er, I was afraid that she would endure hardships since I was a child, and I didn't force her to work hard, so I still have a martial arts level of half a bucket of water. But if you want to learn some martial arts and self-defense, you can come over when you have time, I can teach you some boxing and fighting skills. ”

Xu Jin'er also hoped that Liu Xu could study hard and become an official, after all, that was the best way out for men. But after this incident, Xu Jin'er didn't want Liu Xu to be embarrassed, she just felt that Liu Xu was happy and safe. If you can learn some martial arts to defend yourself, maybe you won't be kidnapped so easily, and you won't have to worry about it for a few days. Therefore, Xu Jin'er supported Liu Xu to come to the martial arts hall to learn some boxing and kicking. Xu Jin'er listened to her father's persuasion of Liu Xu to study hard, but this time she did not help her father persuade Liu Xu to study hard, but persuaded her father to hand over all his skills to Liu Xu, so that he could protect himself. Just want to live a peaceful life, studying and being an official are all floating clouds.

Liu Xu was a little happy when he heard that Xu Jin'er no longer persuaded him to study for the exam. Liu Xu's biggest thing is that he was persuaded by others to study hard and take exams to become an official. I still know the level of a few pounds and a few taels, and this bit of ink in my stomach is difficult for ordinary literati, let alone taking the imperial examination. When I heard that Xu Jin'er no longer forced herself to study and supported herself to learn some martial arts, she couldn't help but feel like a confidant.

After the four of them finished dinner, Xu's father and Xu's mother knew that Liu Xu and Xu Jin'er must have a lot to say, so they went to the back room to do other work, leaving the two in the house.

Although Liu Xu has been in danger many times in the past few days, he knows that he is missing, and Xu Jin'er must be even more worried and tormented. The two complained to each other and comforted each other.

Xu Jin'er talked about her panic after Liu Xu's disappearance, and she still had palpitations when she thought about it. It wasn't until yesterday that the Cui family sent a letter, saying that they had received a message from the flying pigeon, saying that Liu Xu was unloading the stone shed, and they felt a little at ease. However, today is also a day of food and taste, and I am restless, until I see Liu Xu himself, Xu Jin'er is at ease.

Liu Xu couldn't help but be moved in his heart, it feels good to have someone who cares about him all the time!
