"Yes."

Liang Yanqiu responded respectfully and retreated.

He didn't show the slightest dissatisfaction, but when he turned away, his face immediately turned ugly.

"I betrayed my ancestors, I can't be loyal to you, and I have worked hard for you to benefit Yu Wei, are you like this to me? Anyway, if it is not my race, after all, its heart will be different, and after seeing it, it will eventually return. That's it, when this is over, I will find an excuse to go south and return to China, which is a big deal to stay incognito for the rest of my life. ”

Liang Yanqiu's heart was full of anger, and he was full of fear of the future and dissatisfaction with Ha Bu.

―――――――― Dividing Line―――――――

North of Partridge Town, deep in the mountains and dense forests.

Thirty miles north of Partridge Town is the mighty Heilongjiang River, and thirty-seven miles northeast of Partridge Town is where the Heilongjiang River flows into the Songhua River (I know that the Songhua River is a tributary of the Heilongjiang River, but in the perception of people in the Ming Dynasty, the Heilongjiang River is a tributary of the Songhua River, so this book follows this argument). In this small corner, there is a vast and boundless forest.

The large forest in the northeast, between the trees, is not very dense, but at a glance, it is boundless, like the vast sea.

Korean pine, elm, poplar, linden, the most here are pine and birch, both of which are extremely tall trees, pine trees do not know how many years they have grown, like pagodas, generally thirty or forty meters high, the diameter of the trunk is more than two meters, dense pine needles in clusters, clusters.

The leaves of the birch have long since fallen off, leaving only the bare trunk. It looks much more slender and slender than the pine trees, and the white bark is peeling off piece by piece. Patches of gray are exposed, like walls that have fallen into disrepair.

But it's already more than April. In later generations, it is already June in the solar calendar, and the south of the Yangtze River in the Guannei is already the scorching sun, which is the bitter cold of the north, and this is also the spring melting, the thick snow in the forest has already melted, and the green grass more than two inches high has been exposed on the ground, where the shadow of the big tree cannot be hidden. Energetically squeezing towards the sun.

There were many dead branches of large trees on the ground that had fallen and were about to rot, and a thick layer of green moss had grown on the surface, and it was a kind of fat that made people feel greasy to the touch. It is covered with mushrooms, mostly grayish-white, but some of them are brightly colored, showing their viciousness.

The ground is not flat, but a deep mountain, with thousands of walls in some places, and deep valleys and cliffs. There is little flat ground. Such mountains are not common in the Northeast, and the Great Plains of the Northeast are called plains, but they are not the same as the Jiangnan and North China Plains. In fact, it is made up of continuous low hills, and if you look at it from above, you will see the undulating waves.

The midday sun shines straight in. The dead branches and leaves on the ground are still a little damp.

Not far in front is a high cliff, with a drop of hundreds of feet. Above the cliff is a small mountain stream, and the snow that has accumulated on the forest mountain for a winter has melted. As a result, the flow of mountain streams has increased greatly. Flying straight down from the hundred-zhang high cliff, although it was not 3,000 feet high, the huge water flow smashed into the deep pool below, and it still made an extremely loud sound.

Even if there is a dense forest blocking, it is spread far away, and when it sounds in the dense forest, it seems extraordinarily empty and high.

A white practice straight down for nine days, spectacular, flying flowers splash jade, water vapor is everywhere, hundreds of zhang around are a foggy, wet tide tide feeling.

The forest is silent, only the sound of water, wind, and birdsong.

A big foot wearing thick black mille-feuille shoes lightly stepped on the ground, although it was deliberately lightened, but it still crushed the dead branches and leaves below, making a slight creaking sound, breaking the silence of the forest.

Two men came slowly out of the woods, both of them of medium height, and both dressed in grey and black clothes, which were a good concealment in the northern jungles, almost indistinguishable from the bark of a birch tree.

The one on the left is slightly stronger, with a face full of meat, and the one on the right is extremely thin, like a hemp rod.

There was no one in the forest, but the two of them were walking a little tiptoe, and even their steps were quite gentle, and their eyes were even more as if they were stained with oil, constantly looking around, as if there was danger everywhere. And their expressions were not very nervous, so it could be seen that their habitual actions were just professional reasons, but they did not really feel any danger. The hemp pole on the right wiped his nose and said, "Big brother, let's run here, what can we really get?" ”

The horizontal meat snorted: "Where else can you go if you don't come here?" Didn't the command be passed down from above, just look for it near Partridge Town! This is what Liu Dawang said in person, can it be fake? ”

"Grandma's, when it comes to Liu Dawang, he is full of anger, this guy doesn't know what errand he has received, and when he comes back, he will send us out to be born and die, and say that once he can't find out, he will all be killed, and I will join his wife!" The hemp stubble snorted, and a mouthful of thick phlegm spat on the ground.

It's just that he was very careful, and he stretched out his foot and pulled a few leaves to cover the thick phlegm.

This action made a flash of approval on Hengrou's face, he smiled, and a touch ×of × lewdness appeared on his face: "If you can't get into his mother, as long as you enter his first time, this life will be worth it." ”

The two glanced at each other, and they both tacitly let out a lewd laugh.

These two people are one of Amin's secret agents, and they are among the dozen or so who are quite elite, the most experienced and sophisticated, and have seen the most big scenes. The two of them are not simply called brothers, don't look at the big difference between the two of them, but in fact they are brothers, they are both from Orion in the Jiahewei Mountains in northern Liaoning. My parents were also hunters, but when they were only seven or eight years old, my father went hunting in the mountains and was bitten to death by a tiger, and my mother cried to death. The two brothers lost their father and mother at a young age, and they finally survived after starvation and a full meal with the help of the people around them.

The harsh environment also makes them very skilled. Climate change in the mountains and forests, identification of herbal poisons. The classification of animals and so on are all understandable, as for the trap to hunt prey, dig a trap to harm people and other things. The old hunters in the mountains of this era were almost all plant experts, zoologists and astronomical hydrologists.

Later, Jiahewei was defeated, and many of them who were skilled in the same skill trained Zhao'an as secret agents.

These two brothers are two of them quite outstanding.

The eighth king of Liu in their mouths is naturally Liu Decai. Yehnara is loyal.

It turns out that Liu Decai is also an official fan, and he is determined to climb up, although he has climbed the line of Amin and has been appointed, but there are also many powerful people among the Jurchens that he cannot afford to offend. When he was mixing green skins on the streets of Jiahewei, he had a hot fight with a little widow, and the little widow was also good to him, shushing the cold and asking for warmth. When I go home at night, I also have hot soup and hot food, and there is always a pain.

Later, when Liu Decai became wealthy, he married the little widow and made him small, of course. The main house is still empty. The little widow had a bewitching body, and she was also an eye-catching vixen, and later she fell in love with a Jurchen Qianhu. Because of the relationship between Liu Decai, Lord Yehenara, he was embarrassed to rob here, so he leaked a little bit and went out. Liu Decai listened. Without saying a word, he invited the master of the thousand households into his home for a banquet that night. Ask Mrs. Ru to come out to accompany her, and when she has almost drunk, she will send the two of them into the cave room. Not only that, but he was afraid that others would disturb the two, so he moved a horse and stood at the door for a night.

Later, this matter spread, so Liu Dawangba's reputation also spread.

He is an official, and his status is also noble, but this kind of person who sells his ancestors and sells women will not be respected by others after all.

The hemp pole laughed for a while: "But the reward silver opened by Liu Dawang is really heavy!" My mother, twenty taels of gold, fifty snowflakes of silver! If we really make trouble, our brothers will not be able to think about the next thing in their lives. ”

"But there has to be a life flower." Heng Rou licked his lips: "You didn't see it yesterday, drink, my God, the big camp outside Partridge Town, so many flags, the soldiers were full of smoke and dust during the drill, according to the method of recognizing soldiers given to us by those Jurchen officials, I estimate that there will be no thirty or forty thousand, Liu Dawangba asked us to listen to the news around Partridge Town, find out the secret of the Yellow Dragon Banner of the Laoshi Regiment, and enter the fuck, is this so easy to find?" Don't put your own life on the line. ”

He said leisurely: "So, let's be careful, it is our life to be able to get the money, and as long as we can go back alive, it is also our luck, don't think too much." Got it? ”

"Big brother, I'll listen to you." Ma Zhu'er hurriedly said.

He has always known that the eldest brother is stable, and he also lets Hengrou make up his mind about something.

As he was talking, suddenly there was a neighing sound from a horse not far away.

Both of them were shocked, looked at each other, the horizontal meat waved their hands, the hemp pole understood, the two bent down, lightly touched forward. They deserve to be professional spies, and this time they tiptoed, but they only made a very slight sound. And their movements seem to be slow and fast, constantly covering their bodies with tall trees, even if they are deliberately searching, it is difficult to find their traces.

After walking forward for about dozens of meters, they hid in the bushes under a big tree, and the two of them slightly opened the leaves to look out, and their eyes suddenly opened up.

In front of him was an open field, about a few hundred meters in circumference, and the water pouring out of the deep pool under the waterfall in the distance formed a small stream that was not wide, surrounded by white stones, and the water was very clear.

The three war horses were drinking water by the stream, and when they saw these three war horses, Hengrou and Ma Pole immediately lit up. The horse was dressed in a very fine and heavy waistcoat, and the edge of the big red waistcoat was a circle of golden copper about a finger's width, and it was densely nailed with golden copper nails.

On each side of the horse's back hung a string of prey, all of which were small beasts such as roe deer, roe deer, and hares, and their bodies were scarred, apparently just hunted. It's still dripping blood.

And the three knights were sitting on the bluestone by the stream, and they were wearing bright red cotton armor. The helmets were all taken off and kept at hand, as if they were resting. Talking and laughing while taking off the water bladder and drinking water.

They are all Han Chinese faces, and the edges of their armor are also inlaid with golden copper edges.

Hengrou and Ma Gong'er glanced at each other, and both saw a surprise in each other's eyes - as a qualified scout, there are some things that must be known, for example, among all the armies of the Ming Dynasty, only a very few of the forbidden soldiers in the Upper Twenty-six Guards can wear this kind of red armor with yellow edges, which is a symbol of the royal family. And these are the armies that specialize in protecting the royal family. They usually don't leave the capital, and there is almost only one explanation for the place where they appear - there are members of the royal family here, and the status must be quite noble.

In this way, what Liu Dawang said is really good, there are really nobles here.

I can't say, the secret of the Yellow Dragon Banner is about to fall on this.

The two of them took a deep breath and continued to check silently.

The Praetorian Guards raised their voices as they spoke, and one of them, with a bearded face and a rough face, slammed the water bladder into the boulder below. scolded angrily: "It's really his mother's grievance to come out this time, first let Wu Yijun bully him, so that he can learn a lesson, and then it's cooler." You just let them bully you - after all, they are powerful, and we can't afford to provoke them at this time, when they go to the capital. Gotta get this one back, grandma. Now it's for that thief woman to be bullied. King Liang is just that, that woman is just a barbarian from North Korea. He also dared to ride on our heads to and pee, and he was arrogant. ”

The other smiled: "Liang Tou'er, if that woman really pees on your head, you don't know how beautiful you are!" That woman's figure, that face, tsk, if I can sleep with her for one night, I will let her squat on my head and pull a bubble of urine and admit it. We also want to know what it feels like to pee such a beauty! ”

"You worthless bastard." The Liang Tou slapped the back of the head of the forbidden army, smacked his mouth, but also smiled: "If this woman let Lao Tzu do it, she naturally didn't say it, but if she urinated on Lao Tzu's head, it wouldn't work." But ......"

He lowered his voice and laughed lewdly: "However, if you are fucked by Lao Tzu and urinate, then it doesn't count." ”

All three of them let out a loud hey, hey, lewd laugh.

The thin man who had never opened his mouth said: "Lao Liang, Xiao Si, let's talk about this in private, but don't spread it outside, otherwise, the lives of the three of us will not be saved." After all, King Liang is now one of the nine princes who listen to the government, the power is leaning towards the government and the opposition, and there are a large group of civil and military officials under his hands, and even many adults in our army have taken refuge in him, this woman is his favorite, and it is just a matter of one sentence to ask for the heads of the three of us! Do you get it? ”

He obviously has the highest prestige among these three people, and as soon as he said this, Lao Liang and Xiao Si immediately said to you solemnly: "Xu Zongqi, don't worry, we will never say this in our stomachs." ”

Over there, the hemp pole and the horizontal meat glanced at each other, and they both smiled knowingly, and their hearts were really no different from men in the world, and they all coveted the women they couldn't get.

And when they heard the words King Liang, they were even more ecstatic in their hearts, and the secret of the Yellow Dragon Banner had been found!

It turned out that there was really a big man living in this partridge town, and it turned out to be His Royal Highness King Liang of the Ming Dynasty.

The two of them glanced at each other, their eyes were a little dull, and at the same time there was a thought in their hearts - God opened his eyes, so that we could get that reward!

There was a sound of footsteps not far away, and the two of them suddenly tightened, and when they were sure that the footsteps were from the side of the creek, Fang Zi relieved his heart, only to see another forbidden army coming from not far away, with blood standing on his body, and a fawn in his hand. The fawn also had a bloody wound on its neck, which was already out of breath, and blood was dripping down.

He shook the prey in his hand and said with a smile: "Brothers, look at what this is?" ”

When the three of them heard the sound, they saw the deer in his hand, and their eyes lit up: "Deer? ”

"That's right." The later man smiled, put the fawn on the horseback, went to the head and threw it to the little four, and said, "Si'er, clean and clean, come out to do things, and you can't lose your own belly." ”

"Yes." Xiao Si answered, took out a sharp knife from his waist, and walked to the downstream of the stream with the roe deer and squatted down. He was obviously already familiar with this, and with a stroke of the sharp knife in his hand, he disemboweled, then cleaned the internal organs, and began to peel the skin.

Lao Liang looked at the size of the deer brought by the man later, and then he was a little discouraged: "This deer is too small, but the woman specified that she wanted to eat the peach blossom deer lips, and the size of the lips is not enough." ”

"What's the hurry?" Later, before the man could speak, Xu Zongqi was already smiling and said: "We haven't found a deer after looking for a morning, the deer live in groups, we can find one here, and if we look carefully later, we can find a group." Lao Su, it's up to you to do this today, otherwise we will have to eat the head row when we go back. ”

Later, the man smiled and gave a thumbs up to Xu Zongqi: "You still know a lot about Master Zongqi." ”

As he spoke, he pouted at Lao Liang: "I haven't finished talking yet, what are you anxious about?" The herd of deer was three miles to the east, and I had searched for them. ”

Lao Liang snorted and ignored him.

Xu Zongqi's quarrel with the two of them is already commonplace, and he greeted: "Little four, slaughter this deer too, anyway, the deer's lips can't be included in the dish, let's try it today." ”

These people put on a posture and ate happily, but the hemp poles and horizontal meat over there had already retreated from the grass.

Their movements were very light and careful, and they did not step on dead branches or slip inexplicably, and they left the stream smoothly. It wasn't until they had withdrawn for a full mile or two, and were sure that the people could no longer hear what was going on on their side, that the two of them took a breath and relaxed.

Ma Zhu'er and the two have absolute confidence in their brothers' skills in the mountains and forests, and those forbidden soldiers may be able to fight, but it is absolutely impossible to find them. Rao is like this, and after the two of them are safe, they are also in a cold sweat.

Not frightened, but happy - because of the huge bounty that is coming, for them, with that money, it can be said that they will be rich in the next life.

The two brothers looked at each other, and they both laughed, and saw the ecstasy on each other's faces.

After laughing for a while, the two of them began to sort out the huge amount of information they had just gotten.

First of all, it is certain that King Liang is stationed in Partridge Town, and it seems that there are still many forbidden army soldiers guarding it, as for how many, it is unknown.

Secondly, His Royal Highness King Liang did not come by himself this time, but also brought a woman, this woman he loved very much, otherwise, he would not have sent someone out to hunt deer for him to make peach blossom deer lips according to her mind - the two brothers also know that this dish is very precious, and if you want to make it exquisite, the selection of materials must be especially high-quality, very picky. It is rumored that Yang Xuezhong, the general of Liaobei, likes to eat this dish very much, and three hundred deer will be slaughtered for such a plate of deer lips.

It would be enough to get these two pieces of information, if such an extremely loyal and responsible spy would not have probed further, but for these two people, there was no need for this. With these, the bounty is already firmly in hand after returning, so why bother to go on the adventure of life and death?

That's how the brothers decided to go back.

Ma Zhu'er's face suddenly changed, and he stared at the opposite side of Hengrou with a shocked face, and shouted: "Brother, how did the officers and soldiers catch up?" ”

"What?" Hengrou's face also changed, and he quickly looked back.

At this moment, there was something strange in his heart, but the instinctive reaction of his body made him unable to control his body.

Behind him, it was empty.

The wind is quiet, and the forest is silent.

At this moment, the man with a face full of flesh suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, he slowly turned his head, looked down, and saw that a one-foot-three-inch-long boning knife had been inserted into his chest. The insertion was very ruthless, just in the gap between the ribs, and it was inserted into the heart accurately. Hengrou immediately knew that he couldn't survive, and he didn't know how many times he had plunged a sharp knife into someone else's chest. (To be continued.) )
