"Wow", the baby in the arms of the woman next to her was the first to cry, which made the woman, who was already afraid of the sergeant, suddenly look ugly, and she was anxious and frightened to get up with the baby, and ran to the side to coax desperately, lest the cry provoke the sergeant and bring them some unbearable disaster.

Fortunately, the sergeant at the head just glanced over and ignored it, which made the couple breathe a sigh of relief. This family of three is lucky, but the old man and the girl are not so lucky.

"Liu Laohan, the three-day period has passed, what do you say?" The fierce-looking man sat down at a table, took off the horizontal knife from his waist, and slammed it on the table, causing the whole table to creak and collapse. His eyes were sharp, fixed on the old man. When the girl saw these people coming in, she felt like she had lost her soul, and at this time she thought she wanted to run, but she was surrounded by a group of sergeants, laughing and laughing, so that she had no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground, and she was panicked and wept.

Seeing this scene, Li Congjing and the others all frowned secretly.

Liu Laohan looked angry, his thin old face turned red, and in front of the sergeant, he said angrily: "Zhao Wu, the old man told you a long time ago that my granddaughter has already made a promise!" ”

Team Zheng Zhao Wu sneered, "You fucking don't come to this set with Lao Tzu, you told Lao Tzu about this a month ago, but Lao Tzu forced you to delay it for a month, who did Xiao Niang promise to, who is her man?" I haven't even seen a figure yet! Liu Laohan, Lao Tzu was a soldier before you respected, and I gave you enough face, you don't want to toast and eat and drink! ”

"The old man has told you many times, then he is a scholar in his later life, and he will go to the Central Plains to test his fame, and he will be back in a few days! Zhao Wu, do you still want to rob today? The old man said angrily.

Zhao Wu laughed again and again, "Reader? Readers have a fart! Can a scholar fight the Khitan and take the head of the Khitan people? You are also a soldier, how can you chirp to those girls who are readers, what is wrong with the little lady promising to Lao Tzu, I Zhao Wu will treat him badly! Since Lao Tzu is here today, you have to promise if you promise, and you have to agree if you don't promise! ”

"You...... Don't you think that if you are so rampant, you are not afraid that the old man will be stabbed into the army? ”

The sarcasm on Zhao Wu's face was even stronger, "What if you stab yourself in the army, do you think the town will help you?" Lao Tzu has been in the army for five years, and there are no less than ten Khitan heads screwed back, and Lao Tzu is a person who has merit to the country! Damn, fighting the front line, it is the soldiers who protect you well, Lao Tzu is desperate for his life, what do you want, now Lao Tzu wants Ming Media to marry a little lady, you don't agree, your conscience is eaten by dogs?! ”

"I just can't say no!"

Zhao Wu was finally enraged and kicked over the table, "Straight lady thief, you don't listen to what Lao Tzu says, and Lao Tzu doesn't need to talk to you." Lao Tzu is here today, can you still stop me?! As he spoke, he stepped in front of the girl in two steps, grabbed her wrist and walked out, "Today's little lady is going to decide!" ”

"Let go, let go!" The girl cried out loud, struggling vigorously, but where could she help the other party.

The old man finally had no choice, picked up a worn-out kitchen knife, stood in front of Zhao Wu, ripped off his sackcloth, revealed his thin and scarred chest, pointed at himself, and said sadly: "The old man has been fighting horses all his life, participating in 361 battles and battles, killing 33 Khitan thieves and wounding countless Khitan soldiers; Seventeen knife wounds, nine arrow wounds, and crawled out of the pile of dead people three times! In terms of merit, in terms of qualifications, the old man is much older than you! If you rob my granddaughter in front of the old man today, the old man is not worthy of being a man in this life! ”

As he spoke, he screamed and fought with you, and pounced on Zhao Wu.

The old man should have been very good when he was young, but at this time, after all, he is old, and it is difficult to even walk a long distance, where will he be Zhao Wu's opponent? Zhao Wu saw that the old man actually used a knife against him, he was very angry, kicked out, kicked the old man back to the chair, spat angrily, and scolded disdainfully: "The old immortal dog thing, I don't want to live and do it with Lao Tzu!" ”

The old man was extremely sad and angry, but he was unable to stand up again for a while, and the sorrow in his eyes was thicker than blood. The girl burst into tears, struggling desperately in front of the old man, shouting incessantly. Zhao Wu said angrily: "What are you messing with, go back with Lao Tzu obediently, Lao Tzu will not treat you badly!" ”

The family of three next to him, the man half-hugged his wife and huddled together, looking at Zhao Wu and the others with fear and fear, and didn't dare to speak at all.

During the struggle, the girl's flute fell to the ground.

Then, in the girl's vision, blurred by tears, she saw a clean hand pick up the flute on the ground. Before she could see who the other party was, she heard a scream in her ear, and then she felt Zhao Wu's hand holding her loose, and when she turned around, she saw Zhao Wu's body flying up like a sandbag, falling heavily on the official road.

The girl finally saw who picked up her flute, it was the young man named Li Jing, who was standing in the store at this time, and those Tang Army sergeants were staring at him fiercely and rushed towards him, but in the eyes of the girl, this young man with a cold momentum at this time just said indifferently to the man with six knives on his body, "Don't let any of them go." ”

A sergeant pointed at him and yelled arrogantly: "Damn, you stinky businessman don't want to die, dare to do something to the officers and soldiers?!" "They have always been the only ones who bully businessmen, when have they been bullied by businessmen? Which of those businessmen who passed by saw them not flattering and obediently offering filial piety? Businessmen who dare to act against the official army are unheard of!

However, as soon as the sergeant finished saying this, his body was kicked out of the shop by Ding Hei, and he fell on the official road and could not get up again.

The old man and the girl froze there, completely unable to accept the scene in front of them.

The members of the caravan on the official road immediately rushed out a few people, and they didn't move the old man before they noticed it, and all of them were vigorous and strong, with a military atmosphere! Those sergeants who are also considered elite here, in front of them, are like three-year-old children, and they are all beaten down as soon as they see them!

The girl suddenly screamed and covered her mouth with her hands. For he saw a sergeant, drawing his sword, and slashing at the young man who had picked up his flute from behind, and the young man did not seem to realize that danger had come!

But in the next moment, she stayed there, and the young man named Li Jing, like an eye in the back of his head, kicked backwards before the opponent's knife fell, hitting the opponent in the chest. The sergeant screamed and flew out of the shop, crashing into a large tree, and the horizontal knife fell weakly.

The old man and the girl, you look at me, I look at you, I can't understand the facts in front of them, they have seen too many caravans, so many that they can't count them, but they dare to draw their swords to help each other when they see injustice, and the caravan with such terrifying combat power has never heard of it!

In an instant, about twenty sergeants were thrown together, humming and chirping, and they couldn't get up again.

Zhao Wu was trampled under the feet of Ding Hei with an angry face, and blood spilled from his mouth, but he still kept shouting, "You are fucking crazy, dare to do something to the official army, do you know who Lao Tzu is?" Breaking ground on Tai Sui's head, how many heads do you have, is it enough for Lao Tzu to cut off? ”

Li Congjing squatted down in front of Zhao Wu, still holding the flute in his hand, he looked at Zhao Wu and asked, "Do you know who I am?" ”

Zhao Wu, who was trampled on his cheek by Ding Hei, was simply amused by the kid in front of him who didn't know the height of the sky, "Can you fucking stop teasing Lao Tzu?" Lao Tzu cares who you-mom-, Lao Tzu tells you, you and your caravan, it's over! ”

Li Congjing actually wanted to say that you don't fucking tease me, but he didn't say these useless words, but said indifferently: "This is Shuntian Town under the command of Lu Longjiedu, your town will be Zhao Tianhe, leading three hundred, he just passed his fortieth birthday a month ago." With your actions today, I could have killed you, but I remember that you also killed the Khitan thieves for the country, I will spare you a life, you go back and tell Zhao Tianhe that since he can't govern the army, then there is no need to lead the army. Three days later, the commander of Lu Longjie's envoy will be handed down to Zhao Tianhe. Speaking of this, Zhao Wu's face finally changed, "As for what you do, I believe that when you go back, Zhao Tianhe already knows what to do." ”

After speaking, Li Congjing stood up, waved his hand to signal Ding Hei to let go of Zhao Wu, and then summoned the accompanying military intelligence officer, and gave two orders, and immediately two people took out two horses from the caravan and left quickly.

Zhao Wu got up and looked at Li Congjing uncertainly, "You, who are you?" ”

"I'm Li Jing, the owner of this caravan." Li Congjing said lightly, "As for my other identities, you are not qualified to know." Now, you can roll with your people. ”

Zhao Wu hesitated for a while, and finally left with a black face and a group of sergeants.

After Zhao Wu and the others left, the old man came over with the support of the girl, hugged his fist and thanked Li Congjing, Li Congjing smiled, and handed the flute back to the girl, "Your flute, put it away." ”

The girl took back the flute and saw that Li Congjing's eyes were very hot, with a hopeful light.

The scene of Zhao Wu and the others was just an episode for Li Congjing and the others, and Li Congjing and the others sat back at the table. The eyes of the couple sitting next to each other looked at Li Congjing and the others, and they were all very bright, but the people who dared to make a move on Zhao Wu were obviously not able to climb high, so they didn't dare to come over.

After all, the old man has a lot of experience, and at this time, he can also see that Li Congjing and others are unusual, and he knows everything about Li Congjing's previous questions about the surrounding situation. Ding Hei gave up his seat and let the old man sit and talk. How many goods were in the old man's stomach, they all poured out for a while.

"I heard that Abaoji let his second son Yelu Deguang be the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, leading thousands of troops to plunder the Jizhou area, like horse thieves, everywhere for trouble, although our side has not been affected for the time being, but after all, the Khitan horse is fast, I can't say when it will run over, a few people want to walk to the north, I'm afraid you need to be careful, if you are bumped into by the Khitans, the goods will definitely not be guaranteed, maybe even your life is in danger. However, in recent years, the Khitans have killed fewer people, that is, they will all be captured and forced to become Khitans. The old man was a little worried about Li Congjing and others.

The things involved in this matter are all confidential for the time being, Li Congjing and others naturally will not explain it to the old man, and the old man also knows the severity of it, so he did not ask Li Congjing and others about their hidden identities. When everyone was talking, Li Congjing saw that the girl standing on the side always looked like she wanted to speak and stopped, and her pure eyes looked at her from time to time.

"Little lady, do you have something to say?" Li Congjing asked simply, he felt some pity for this girl-like girl next door.

The girl didn't expect Li Congjing to take the initiative to ask, panicked, but she came back to her senses, bit her lip, glanced at the old man, and saw the old man nodding, so she mustered up the courage and bowed down to Li Congjing, when Li Congjing wondered, the old man sighed and said: "This child promised a family business when he was a child, and he was a scholar in later life, a very good young man, but he was a little stubborn, a year ago the Khitan entered the country, which brought us a lot of disasters, he saw the death and injury of the villagers, the field house was destroyed, and he hated the Khitan to the bone. After the Khitan retreated, he went to the north alone, saying that he would go to work for the king and collect some military information, so that the king could go out to pacify the Khitan......"

Speaking of this, the old man sighed heavily, "This is a year, there is no news, my granddaughter misses it very much, she plays the flute by the stream every day, and people are getting thinner and thinner, which makes the old man unbearable." But the old man's old bones, half of his body are in the dirt, and the road is not easy, even if he has the heart, what else can he help her? Speaking of this, the old man got up and bowed deeply to Li Congjing, "If the son pities her, please take this broken woman to the grassland, she has long wanted to go to the grassland to find her Langjun!" ”

Thinking about the previous statement of merit and fame, it was to deal with Zhao Wu.

Li Congjing and Mo Li and the others looked at each other in surprise, not only surprised by the enthusiasm and heart of the later life, but also surprised by the girl's persistence and courage, Li Congjing got up and helped the two of them, and said solemnly: "This is going to the grassland, there are many crises, how can I guarantee survival?" Besides, the sea of people is vast and the grasslands are vast, can you really find it? ”

"I'm not afraid!" The girl said firmly, her glittering eyes full of supplication.

"Then when the latter was leaving, he said that he would go to the West Building City, and since the son was also going to the West Building, he would stop by the way......"

When Ding Hei saw this, maybe he remembered something, his eyes were a little red, and he hugged Li Congjing and said, "The little lady is sincere, and I ask the son to fulfill it." Along the way, I would like to take her with me! ”

Li Congjing nodded.

From time to time, Li Congjing took the girl who turned back one step and three times and set out on the road ahead.

The old man in front of the wooden shed, alone in the autumn wind, turned his back and quietly wiped a handful of old tears.

When the caravan was no longer visible, the old man sighed and sat back in his wooden chair, humming a little tune, but to a longer tune.

At dusk, a cavalry contingent of thousands of men and extraordinary military might galloped over the official road in front of the old man, following the remaining steps of the caravan.

The old man stood up and saluted an army alone. At the end, he sighed: "Today's son, there is such a horse army behind him as a backup, what kind of person is he!" ”

What surprised the old man even more was that Zhao Wu went and returned not long after, but he was alone. He knelt in front of the wooden shed with his head on his back bare-chested.
