Chapter 575: The flag is victorious, and the matchmaker is embarrassed

The weather is getting colder and colder in October.

The city is slightly better, in the mountains and forests, the cold wind is howling in gusts, and even the cotton clothes wrapped in the body are difficult to keep out the cold. For ordinary chalk surnames, this is certainly a difficult season, and for the mountain bandits and horse thieves who occupy the mountains as kings, it is also the most difficult time of the year. First of all, you have to prepare food for the winter, and secondly, you have to prepare charcoal and cotton clothes and quilts for the winter, etc., if it is a village with many people, you can also go down the mountain to beat the tooth sacrifice from the body of the merchant traveler, and if it is a village with few people, it is a little helpless to deal with the business travelers who are mostly chalky in this winter, and even hire chalk servants to watch the chalk guard.

Therefore, there is only one best way to make money at this time, meat tickets.

For a few days, three or five big men took a small inn in the southwest of Yizhou City. Because the small inn has a total of three rooms, all of which are large shops, the innkeeper looks at the face of money, and these big men are full of fierce faces, so he naturally doesn't care about what they are doing in his small inn. Even on the evening of the fourth day, when a few people came back with a large suitcase, he pretended not to see it. It wasn't until he got up early in the morning of the fifth day that he was relieved to find that everyone had gone cleanly, but when he went to check the bottom of his box, the shopkeeper found that not only the ten taels of silver obtained by the first were missing, but even the thirty or forty taels of silver that he had accumulated for many years were also emptied.

However, there was already another group of people who reported the case in the Yazhong of Yizhou County, but it was the Huang family, a well-known big family in the county, who sued the head of the family and his son who was kidnapped. Originally, the shopkeeper who wanted to quickly file a case with a familiar official inquired about the fact that three or five big men kidnapped the little young master of the Huang family, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Sure enough, that afternoon, he heard that this matter was done by a group of mountain bandits on the nearby Poor Dushan Mountain, and asked the Huang family to pay 2,000 taels of silver to ransom people. If the money is not found within three days, the meat ticket will die. Knowing this, the shopkeeper recited Amitabha Buddha countless times, and secretly congratulated himself that he had only lost a few dozen taels of silver, and if others wanted to destroy the chalk, his life would be gone.

Although Yizhou is an important place in southern Jinan, it has not been a day or two since mountain bandits and horse thieves have been rampant, even though the old chalk of the Huang family has been a + county commander, and now the eldest son is still a person, but he didn't think about convincing the officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress - in the past few years, it was not that the big families who had suffered so badly did this, but the final result was to lose his wife and break the army, and it became a practice over time. Although there are no more than 100 mountain bandits on the poor mountain, it is rumored that they are connected with Yang Hu, who is very famous in the southern part of the country. This kind of thing has always been encountered, the official chalk mansion hides and does not report it, the big families pay their own money to ransom people, and the mountain bandits get the money and enjoy themselves.

Wu is very sure of the fans who have long been accustomed to this set. At this moment, in the humble meeting hall in the cottage, he picked up a large bowl full of wine and saluted a few big men who followed him on this trip, and he drank it first, and then shook his signature fan and smiled: "You have done a good job with this vote!" This old yellow thief has a lot of money, but he is stingy and stubborn, and this time he should be slaughtered fiercely. When this ticket is completed, the padded jacket for the winter, whether it is charcoal, food, or even with wine and weapons, it is enough for us to change our shotguns! ”

"It's all the ingenuity of the big bosses. The old man of the Huang family looked at the tall and big horses, who knew that he was so spineless and incompetent, and his vision was really bad, An Xiaobai threw two flattering eyes and grabbed the people, but this errand was done lightly! ”

"If there is such a good thing in the future, Guan Yan will teach An Xiaobai to go out alone, and pretend to be a mother-in-law to come alive!" …,

Although he was teased and ridiculed by others, An Xiaobai, who was long and fair-skinned, and was not at all like other people, was full of mud legs, but he didn't raise his head or say a word, and his face was full of deference. Fan Wu thought that when this kid was robbed up the mountain, he said that he was literate, and he kept it and didn't kill it, so it was really useful, and he couldn't help laughing: "If there is still this kind of thing in the future, let him go out alone, save everyone trouble and be run away!" With him who is literate, how much trouble we can save! ”

Seeing that a chalk man laughed again, An Xiaobai poured wine for a person according to Fan Wu's instructions, although it was like a small man, but there was no complaint. When he was drunk, a bad-nosed mountain bandit touched his face without any scruples, and then said with a smile: "Then again, the big boss, I heard that the big knife Feng on the side of Matouzhai has recruited a group of people recently. Shall we take the centaur around there so that he doesn't know who he is? ”

"I'm afraid of him! His big blade scares others, but it doesn't scare me, this guy is just a useless showman, let alone let him recruit a dozen people, even if he really pulls hundreds of people, he can't become a climate! Besides, who is behind our one hundred and ten people, it is our Jinan Yihu, he dared to provoke us, and ate the bear's heart and leopard gall! ”

As soon as Fan Wu said this, everyone immediately burst into laughter, and one by one they were even more drunk. At this time, a capable person sent to Yizhou City to inquire about the news came in to report that the Huang family was urgently raising money, and the fan Wu couldn't help but drink the liquor in the bowl with great pride, and then slammed the bowl to the ground.

"Brothers, the money will definitely come in the next few days, give me a good look at the God of Wealth, and send his wife back at that time, so that we can do a vote!"

"Oh!"

The big-headed chalkers drank wine and ate meat in the council hall, and the people who patrolled the mountains below were not so good, although they tightened their cotton clothes, the pervasive mountain wind could still drill into the necks and sleeves. Therefore, in this kind of season, naturally no one will be too careful, but the story of the void should be walked around and it will be over. After all, this village is an abandoned inspection department of the Chalk Court of Fan Wu Xuan, erected in an extremely dangerous position, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack after renovation. In addition, the officers and soldiers of Yizhou did not move at all, so naturally no one was afraid of someone attacking, and when they handed over the chalk shift, the two old mountain bandits in charge of the sentry even made a joke.

"Look at the little master of the Huang family, who has fine skin and tender chalk, and I don't know if the big boss can take him to the fire?"

"That's a meat ticket worth two thousand taels, even if it can't be supplied now, but it is still good to eat and drink, and the big boss is not the kind of person who loses big because of small things. If you want to talk about fine skin and tender chalky meat, isn't there a more suitable person in our village? ”

The two men smiled ambiguously at each other, then smacked their lips again. The cottage is full of men, and although there are people who marry mothers-in-law, most of them are carefully placed in the hidden chalk places in the city and countryside, and the women who occasionally grab it have few opportunities for them to enjoy it. They have been singles all their lives, and only occasionally when they go down the mountain, they lose a few dollars in the city to put out the fire. Over time, those kids with fine skin and tender chalk and little ability in a group of people are naturally coveted, but it's a pity that An Xiaobai is the person next to the big boss, and others can't touch each other, only a few words behind their backs.

The two old brothers, who have been in the gang for many years, were muttering there, and suddenly they only heard a whistle. Before they could react, they only felt that something had been pushed their backs, and they fell forward at the same time, and then they felt a sharp pain in their backs. By the time they realized that it was an enemy attack, the man had fallen to the ground like a dog gnawing mud, and it was difficult for them to struggle, and one of them had no time to scream. …,

"Enemy ...... Raid! ”

The second attack was cut directly at the mouth of the throat.

The other man who didn't scream saw a big man in gray jump up and drop his knife in his hand, and he actually lifted the bloody head of his companion directly in his hand, and he was so shocked that he fainted directly. The gray-clothed man was about to slaughter the other one with a knife, and when he saw that the person was already lying on the ground and did not move, he scolded a word of bad luck, and then waved his head back with the knife in his hand, and after a while, twenty or thirty people rushed up from the cliff under the sentry. The last one who came up was also a big man with a ghost head knife, and when he came up, he saw a headless corpse lying in front of him and another person who was killed by an arrow in his back and didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he immediately shuddered.

This group of people who threw themselves up the mountain are really fierce! The brothers of the Liu family were driven out of Bazhou this time, but they didn't expect that they had gathered such a group of people to come back to take revenge, and they had to hide the signboard and take him out of the tank! His mother-in-law and children are all in the hands of these two brothers, and they have to be puppets. However, it has not been a day or two since this fan Wu and his gang have been making a fortune on his head, but he can't even drink the soup after eating meat, even so, there is nothing bad about extinguishing this chalky dog!

"Big boss, give the order!"

Although he was called a big boss, Dadao Feng couldn't hear how much respect there was in it, so he looked at the few henchmen he brought out, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, took a deep breath, and then waved his ghost head knife and shouted: "Kill it, from now on, this poor mountain will no longer have the three words fan Wu!" ”

"That's right, this poor mountain will only have our Matouzhai in the future!"

Since the weather is cold, and the little master of the Huang family is tied up, the chalk up and down are celebrating, and the patrolling people are not dedicated, so although there are not many people and horses led by Dadao Feng, the gods and Buddhas along the road can block and kill the gods and Buddhas, and it is actually a path to the front of the council hall. It wasn't until here that the first two chalk guards were a little more attentive, and when they saw such a large number of people killed, they first shouted for the chalk police. When the two guards were knocked down, the door of the council hall was immediately opened, but it was the fan Wu who led several big men to rush out with weapons.

"What's going on...... Dadao Feng, you have eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall, and you dare to go to the old chalk's territory to spread wild! ”

Although the big knife Feng had no confidence before, when he saw the fan Wu coming out, he instinctively took a step back, but then he thought that he was different from the past, and immediately took three steps forward with the ghost head knife: "The old chalk is here, what can you do with the old chalk!" Not only is the old chalk here today, but you are also going to use your chalk head to pay tribute to the former brothers, and the people below are gone, so let you, the great master, be with them! Brothers, these are the last few, kill them! ”

Hearing that the sentry and the others were finished, Fan Wu panicked. Although he didn't believe that these twenty or thirty people could solve the hundred and ten people in the cottage, but now they were a few against dozens, and between the lightning and flint, he almost subconsciously shouted and retreated, and a few old brothers who had been with him for many years immediately followed him into the council hall, and immediately blocked the door of the room. Although the big knife Feng was extremely fast, the ghost head knife only had time to slash heavily at the door.

"Turtle son, you come out for the old chalk!"

"Just a little bit of you who touched the mountain, you thought you could take my place? Go dream, Xiaobai go ring the bell and gather people to fight with this chalky turtle son! ”

As the bell of Dangdang gradually rang, Wu, the fan who avoided the council hall, was slightly calm. On the one hand, he was glad that he had used this place as the last line of defense in the first place, and it had been reinforced a lot again and again, and it would take at least a while for people to wait for reinforcements to break in; On the other hand, he couldn't help but suspect the big knife, Feng's courage suddenly increased. Although it was only a face-to-face, these people under Dadao Feng's hands couldn't be faked, they were strong and strong, and they were all fresh faces. …,

"Turtle son, do you still want to wait for reinforcements? Dream! Come on, they won't come out, and they will burn these chalks to death with fire for the old chalkers! ”

Fan Wu Ben thought that it was just talking, however, in the noisy sound, he didn't hear any expected fighting, only shouting one after another, and the sudden roaring fire outside the house. Before he could react, an old brother beside him shouted in a trembling voice: "It's a fire attack, these dogs really want to burn us inside!" ”

Although they are usually fearless in robbing business travelers and tying chalk meat tickets, at this moment, all the men are full of panic, especially when they smell the smell of genuine burnt paste, even Fan Wu also changed his face. He finally settled down, and then shouted loudly: "Dadao Feng, you are not afraid that Brother Yang will bring people to level your village one day!" ”

"Aren't you just relying on Yang Hu's momentum? The chalk tells you that if you are not afraid of him coming, you are afraid that he will not come! ”

Seeing that the last trick that had been tried and tested in the past was also useless, Fan Wu finally couldn't help it. He was more afraid of being burned alive in it than death, so he glanced left and right, and several people immediately rushed to the front and lifted the latch of the door that he had just struggled to put down. At this time, the fan Wu Fangcai shouted again.

"Dadao Feng, leave a glimmer of room for being a man, I will give you all the foundation of this poor mountain, as long as my brother is left with a way to live, in front of Brother Yang in the future, we don't care about today's affairs,......"

"Phew, stop talking nonsense, kill a few of you, this inheritance is also a chalk! Unless you send me down, nothing will be mentioned. The chalk counts to five, and if you don't come out and give a clear word, the chalk will burn it to the ground with a fire! ”

At this moment, although he was unwilling, the mountain bandit and horse thief believed most in leaving the green mountains without fear of no firewood, not to mention that even if he wanted to die to the end, the old brothers around him would inevitably refuse to die, Fan Wu had to grit his teeth, opened the door and strode out, shouting in his mouth: "Yes, the old chalk admits planting, and he will not dare to call the big boss in the future, this name is for you!" ”

As soon as the words fell, he found that there were five or six bows and arrows with bows like a full moon pointing at him on the left and right of the big sword, and when he was taken aback, a gray-clothed man next to the big knife Feng suddenly waved his hand, and it was a cluster of arrows shooting directly at him. Although he immediately reacted and swung his knife to block the block, he couldn't stand this volley, and then another time, he was hit by arrows in his right shoulder, left leg and left flank, and suddenly he stood unsteadily and knelt down on one knee. Seeing the big knife Feng Wei smiled and stepped forward, he instinctively shouted angrily: "You don't die well......

As soon as the words fell, he saw the ghost-headed knife that he had laughed at for many years fall straight down. He barely had time to dodge, he only felt light, and then his eyes suddenly rose. It was only when he saw the headless chalk at the bottom fall that he had one last thought.

This chalky soft egg, the old chalk actually died in his hands!

With a slash, the depression of being bullied and oppressed for many years was swept away, and Dadao Feng suddenly laughed with his head. This way to kill will come up, although most of the chalk is the gray-clothed man with his men to slash and kill, but he is not without blood on his body, this time to take advantage of the last advantage, in the eyes of the only few chalk eyes of Fan Wu, the big knife Feng with blood looks extremely hideous. Although there was also a short man who roared and drew his sword, most of them did not dare to move half a step. Sure enough, before the short man could rush to Dadao Feng, a feathered arrow was nailed to his throat very accurately. …,

"If you want to surrender, drop your weapons and kneel, otherwise you will end up like these two!"

How many years have he been a poor mountain bandit, and it is only now that Dadao Feng has drunk this sentence for the first time. Seeing that the guys who used to show off their might in front of him were kneeling down one after another, he couldn't help but laugh again, and the frustration of Liu Liu and Liu Qi, who had to obey Liu Liu's orders, was all thrown into Java.

He and his ghost-headed knife, how could he be so powerful and domineering?

In the corner of the council hall, An Xiaobai, who was huddled there, stared at the headless corpse outside, and a trace of revenge flashed in his eyes, but then quickly disappeared. It took him a lot of strength to escape from that cage, but he didn't expect to be trapped here, and the news that was enough to turn him over was not only useless, but also couldn't be sent out at all. But now he can only ask to save this useful life first, and he can't care about anything else!

The news that a group of bandits in Poor Dushan had been uprooted was sent to Xu Xun's desk, and it was already early the next morning. It was just a small drill, so the expected big win didn't make him much happy. After all, with mental calculations and unintentionality, coupled with the fact that this group of people are ordinary and just a small group of mountain bandits who rob houses and tie chalk meat tickets, they should be caught. And whether you can succeed after this time after others are on guard is the most important thing.

In addition to Tu Xun knowing a little bit about the theft, only Cao Qian knew about it, and even Zhang Yonghe and Shenying only thought that Xu Xun had transferred 300 people out to Jiubian to investigate the military situation, and he didn't think of anything else at all. At this moment, Cao Qian saw Xu Xun sitting down behind the bookcase, so he stepped forward and stood beside him, and said in a low voice: "Do you want to continue immediately?" ”

"Wait for the news to spread and see how it reacts. If time comes, then make another vote! Before the Chinese New Year, you must show prestige...... That Bai Ying of the White Lotus Sect is in the vicinity of Gyeonggi, which is really disturbing, and these heresies are the easiest to make the folk chalk surname credulous, and they must be uprooted as soon as possible. ”

"What your lord says is very true!"

Although Cao Qian has not been following Xu Xun for a long time, he has to be prepared for a short period of time, and he himself knows that he is stained with the light of his father Cao Xiong and Yang Yiqing. So there are some things he is personally involved in, and some things he has guessed from the sidelines, for this Ping Beibo, who is younger than himself and is only less than a year older than his younger brother, he simply admires it from the bottom of his heart. At this moment, he sincerely agreed, but suddenly noticed that Xu Xun was looking sideways.

"Xiaocao, I heard that you have a sister?"

Cao Qian was stunned by Xu Xun's question of great leaps and bounds, and he couldn't figure out Xu Xun's intentions for a while, so he had to say cautiously: "Lord Hui, I have a younger sister in my humble position." ”

"How old are you, have you ever promised someone?"

Knowing that Xu Xun only had one wife in the family, and now he was pregnant with Liujia, Cao Qian suddenly didn't know why this question came, so he replied cautiously: "The sister is just fourteen years old this year, and there is no one in the boudoir yet." ”

"Oh, fourteen ......" Xu Xun pinched his fingers and counted, and then said thoughtfully, "If you want to say that the age is just right...... By the way, your father is going to Guyuan to serve as the chief soldier, can the family still stay in Yansui? ”

"My lord, my father is from Xi'an, so my mother and sister have been staying in Xi'an, and they have not followed Yansui to serve before, only the humble position has always been with them. Now that my father has just gone to Guyuan, he naturally won't bring his family with him. ”

Xu Xun realized that he was taking it for granted, and raised his head with a self-deprecating smile and said, "I forgot that the deputy chief soldier of the general army was on the job, and I didn't bring my family with me." I won't play dumb riddles with you, let's just say it, the queen mother said to the emperor that the prince of Shouning is almost old, and ask the emperor to help find a family business. Although there are many noble daughters in this chalky city, and there are also many official eunuchs and chalk sisters, I have only asked Mrs. Shouninghou what she means, and it seems that she thinks those daughters are too squeamish. The Hou Shizi of Shouning is now sent by the emperor to the front of the Datong army, and it is Zhuang Jian, the chief soldier of Datong, who helps to take care of the placement, and hides the identity of the person, I heard that there are some rules and regulations. So I thought about it and wanted to ask you. ”…,

This has already been said very clearly. However, Cao Qian was stunned for a moment, but he was a little hesitant. Although Zhang Heling, the Marquis of Shouning, is a top nobleman, he has a very bad reputation, and Zhang Zong said that when he first arrived in Datong, that kind of style also made people stay away. Although before he left for Beijing, he had gradually reined in a lot and worked diligently, but God knows if he really changed. Moreover, how can the daughter-in-law of a relative's family really do it? But if my sister marries, if she marries high, she will inevitably have to be careful to meet her in-laws, if she marries low, her husband will achieve nothing on the other day, and she can't raise her head the same?

After thinking about it, he stubbornly said, "My lord, how many days can I think about this matter?" ”

"This matter is not urgent, I am just a momentary idea, you can discuss it with your father."

Xu Xun smiled and nodded, but he thought in his heart that Shouning Marquis Zhang Heling, a character who had some influence on Empress Dowager Zhang, but always caused trouble, if he didn't pinch it carefully in the palm of his hand, he was really not so

If Zhang Zong said that he was really a bastard, then it would be fine, but at least he still had some responsibility, and he could consider it. Therefore, seeing Cao Qian withdrawing, he suddenly spoke again: "By the way, if Sister Ling is soft and weak-tempered, I haven't mentioned this matter." If your sister is strong, you should consider discussing this matter with your father. ”
