Seeing that Luan Yi was getting stronger and stronger, Sun Ce felt a lot of pressure, "What does Gongjin mean?" ”

"Rather than letting Xi Zhicai fall into the hands of Luan Yi, it's better to kill him quickly!" After speaking, Zhou Yu wiped his neck.

"Hiss......" Sun Ce agrees with what Zhou Yu said, if Xi Zhicai really surrenders to Luan Yi, it will be tantamount to a big disaster for him." According to what Gong Jin said. I will send someone to take his life. ”

"No!" Zhou Yu stopped Sun Ce and said: "If this matter spreads, the world will say that the lord is intolerant and will damage his reputation." It is that neither fanfare nor action on the ground of Koto. ”

Sun Ce asked, "Huh?" So how? ”

"You can send a few warriors to follow Xi Zhicai across the river, stay on the border of Luanzi in the north of the river, and then kill them. In this way, the relationship between the lord and this matter can be cleared, and at the same time, the murder of Xi Zhicai can be blamed on Luan Yi's head, killing two birds with one stone. ”

"This method is very good, so it is according to what Gongjin said."

When Sun Ce and Zhou Yu conspired to kill Xi Zhicai, they didn't expect that the countless Xi Zhicai had actually anticipated their behavior.

As the saying goes, things must be reversed, and Xi Zhi understood that Zhou Yu in the lobby had offered such generous conditions, and if he should pay it back. If not, there will be a plague of blood. So when he returned to the pavilion, he just hastily packed up his things and led the five servants to flee all the way north.

When he arrived at the ferry port on the south bank of the river, he met an acquaintance by coincidence. It is said that it is an acquaintance, but in fact, it is not familiar, but it can only be regarded as having a peer relationship. Although the man was dressed in a proper samurai uniform, the pair of autumn-like eyes, the high bridge of the nose, and the thin, round lips could not hide her identity - a peerless woman. The woman was accompanied by a strong man, a maid who was also dressed in men's clothes, and four accompanying guards.

At first, Xi Zhicai thought that the strong man was the woman's father-in-law. secretly praised the strong man in his heart for being blessed, and he married such a beautiful wife. But after observing on the road for a long time, although Fang Jue and the woman are close, they are not intimate. The accommodation on the road is also a separate room and sleeps, thinking that it should be for brothers and sisters.

The brother and sister went out of Yecheng with him, crossed the river, and crossed the Yingchuan River, where he hit the point, the brother and sister ate there; Where did he go to stay with the brother and sister, and they also stayed at the same inn. For a while, Xi Zhicai even thought that the two of them were plotting against him. But along the way, the brother and sister didn't do anything out of the ordinary. I haven't even said a word to him, so what bad intentions can there be?

He was finally curious in his heart, wondering why the two of them always followed him, so he took advantage of the absence of his brother and sister to find the girl's maid and ask the reason.

The answer was that the brother and sister were the death of Jiangdong's grandmother this time, and they rushed to worship on behalf of the old father and mother. happened to meet Xi Zhicai at the gate of Yecheng, and learned that he was also going to Jiangdong through his conversation with his subordinates, and found that he was sophisticated, sophisticated, and seemed to be running all year round, so he decided to follow him all the way south. Wherever he goes, the brother and sister go, and where he stops, the brother and sister also stop.

After getting this answer, Xi Zhicai was immediately relieved, and in the current chaotic situation, the itinerary and route are extremely important. If you accidentally take the wrong road, you run into the barren mountains where wild beasts and mountain bandits gather, and you will sleep in the open air, and you will be afraid of it, and it will be big to lose your life.

Not to mention these major events, if you want to have water and food supplies along the way, there must be rivers and presences along the road; If you want to find a relatively clean and comfortable place to rest and sleep, you just arrive at a large city after a guaranteed daily trip......

It can be said that the itinerary is a very big knowledge, and it is not often walked outside, and ordinary people really can't do it.

Understanding the root cause, Xi Zhicai simply merged with the brother and sister. Through conversation, Fang knew that it was not a brother and sister but a brother and sister. Their family lives in Nanpi, surnamed Lu, the elder sister has a single name Ling, and the younger brother is called Qi.

Lu Ling is as her name suggests, her voice is very crisp, and her speech speed is as fast as the harmony sung by a lark, which is very good.

Xi Zhicai would chat with her when he had nothing to do, and sometimes interrogate them about their family affairs. Lu Ling is very simple, and the clever drama is often able to set out everything in her family in a few words. For example, through the Lu family's large house and disdain for pottery dishes, it can be seen that Lu Ling's family is well-off, and his father is the leading hero of Nanpi.

He also learned that Lu Ling's father was past the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, and his health had always been poor, and he needed his mother to accompany him at any time. Therefore, parents cannot go south to attend their grandmother's funeral, and can only send their children to carry out filial piety.

……

Xi Zhicai was not suspicious, and opened his heart to make friends with the Lu sisters and brothers. Of course...... The main thing is to make friends with Lu Ling.

Sometimes, he would tell Lu Ling stories that he hadn't touched in the past ten years, "The Little Girl Who Sold Firewood", "Sleeping Beauty" or something, to make Lu Ling happy. Lu Ling reciprocated the favor and would sing a few songs for him at ten o'clock in the evening.

In those beautiful nights, the soft moonlight shone on Lu Ling's soft human body, peeling off the cover of her men's clothing, revealing infinite peerless beauty.

Xi Zhicai couldn't help but be stupid.

In the final analysis, the long journey when I came was no longer boring because of Lu Ling's addition, and the 3-month trip was fleeting. The two of them parted according to each other and went their own way.

Without Lu Ling, the river is only more than 300 miles away from Moling, but Xi Zhicai always feels that it is thousands of miles away, and his heart is empty.

He never considered marriage in order to achieve great things. Now that I'm twenty-eight years old, it's time to talk about marriage. "When you return to Hebei, you can immediately go to Nanpi Lu's house to ask for relatives?" He asked himself, "Okay, that's it!" ”

When he came, he admired Lu Ling, so he was able to meet Lu Ling again on the way back, and Xi Zhicai was very happy.

Obviously, Lu Ling didn't expect to meet Xi Zhicai on the way back, and the moment she heard Xi Zhicai call her, a flower-like smile bloomed on her face - that smile was really beautiful.

"Mr. Xi, are you also going back to Jizhou?"

"yes!" Xi Zhicai nodded a little silly.

"That's a coincidence. Brother Qi has just rented a boat, why don't we cross the river together! Lu Ling said.

"The luck of the play!"

Lu Qi, who was guarding the side, scratched his head and said happily: "In this way, you can save half of the fare." ”

Xi Zhicai choked up. It is worthy of being from the family of a merchant, and there is a charge for boarding the ship by yourself.

Lu Ling said that he was upset for Xi Zhicai, "Our family is not bad for that bit of investigation, and what kind of money is not money to talk about with Mr. Xi." ”

Lu Qi hehe, "Aren't I joking with Mr. Xi." Please! ”

Xi Zhicai was not polite to them, and stepped on the board of the boat.

Lu Ling, Lu Qi and their entourage followed into the cabin.

Surprisingly, this time the Lu family sisters and brothers accompanied a lot more servants than last time. There were twenty people crammed into the front cabin, and all of them were armed with swords. That murderous appearance startled Xi Zhicai.

After inquiring about it, Fang learned that after the Lu brothers and sisters paid homage to their grandmother, their mother's family felt that it was not easy for the two of them to come from Hebei, and now that there is continuous war in Hebei and Jiangbei, they sent many guards to ensure their safety.

Xi Zhicai nodded and didn't think much about it. Follow the Lu family brothers and sisters to cross the river safely and reach the Fengling Ferry. According to the original route of Xi Zhicai, it was to pass through Yuzhou until the bank of the big river, and then cross the river to return to Jizhou.

The Lu family brothers and sisters objected to this. They said: Luan Ziqi is now in Chen Bingguandu, maybe there will be a war with Hebei in northern Henan at that time. Therefore, the road in Yuzhou cannot be taken, so it is better to turn to Xuzhou. Take a boat from Xuzhou Canal, cross Yutai, go to Qingzhou, and then cross the river by boat from the direction of Qingzhou.

Hearing this, Xi Zhicai frowned. It's not impossible to go according to what the Lu family sisters and brothers said. However, along the way, you need to pass through a large area of the church's sphere of influence, and one of them is only a hundred miles away from Jinan, almost touching the heart of the church. In addition, to cross the Yellow River, he had to pass through Pingyuan County, and as far as he knew, the plain had now been broken by Lü Bu and had become the forward position of the Qingzhou army......

Seeing that Xi Zhicai hesitated, Lu Ling said: "Take this road and cross the river is Pingyuan County, Pingyuan County is Yecheng to the west, and Nanpi is to the north. At that time, Mr. Xi can go back to Yecheng directly, and go to Nanpi Lu's house to live for a few days. ”

"Nanpi Lu's family?" Xi Zhicai's eyes lit up. As a woman, what does it mean for Lu Ling to invite herself home to live? This is to lead him to meet his parents! This is to make a life with him! He had long had the idea of marrying Lu Ling, but now that Lu Ling was so active, how could he not like it.

Still, he's not going to get dizzy. repeatedly held power for a while, and secretly discussed: There are too many acquaintances on the Yingchuan side, and it is easy to be recognized. On the contrary, there are only a few people in Jinan who know him, and it is safer. After the river, everything is easy to say.

Thinking of this, Xi Zhicai gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, "Okay! Let's take the canal. ”

Shortly after the Battle of Luansun Xiaoyaojin ended, there were not many pedestrians on the road leading to the Xuzhou Canal. The few caravans that were rarely seen were hurrying along the way. The team of cars and horses appeared, and disappeared at the end of the road in a blink of an eye.

When Xi Zhicai and the Lu sisters and brothers walked along the road for more than 200 miles, more than 100 black-clothed people suddenly popped out of the forest on the side of the road. The first person raised the steel knife and shouted: "The one who came is a drama talent? ”

Xi Zhicai quickly recovered from the panic, stepped to the front of the team and covered Lu Ling behind him, "Okay, don't change your name, sit and don't change your surname." I'm a drama talent, how about you? ”

"How?" The leader of the men in black snorted coldly, "The Holy Sect Master has an order to send me to take your life. ”

"Brother Yi'er?" Luan Yi: That's his good friend from childhood to adulthood! but now they will take his life. Xi Zhicai was shocked and sad, and almost collapsed to the ground
