Chapter 44: A Chance Encounter

The horses' hooves rumbled, and Zhang Taiji and several people galloped on the avenue in the woods. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info faintly heard the sound of shouting and fighting in front, due to the barrier of the trees is not very clear, Zhang Fu and several people also heard it, everyone stopped the horse, Mu Lun looked at Zhang Taiji and said: "There seems to be something happening ahead!" ”

Zhang Taiji nodded, and Zhang Fu asked, "What should we do?" ”

Zhang Taiji listened attentively at first, and then the voice in front of him stopped, Mu Lun's ears moved a few times at this time, and said, "Listening to the voice just now, there should be no more than ten people?" ”

Seeing what he said, Zhang Taiji asked curiously: "How do you know?" ”

Mullen replied: "I have been very good at hearing since I was a child, and I can hear sounds that others can't. ”

Zhang Taiji's eyes lit up, and then he asked, "Are a few of them in a gang?" ”

Mullen replied, "Probably not, from the sound of shouting, there were three or four people on one side, five or six people on the other, it seemed that they were fighting each other just now, and one of them was injured, and I could hear the wailing." ”

Zhang Taiji looked at Mu Lun, then at Zhang Fu, and listened carefully with his ears for a while before he said: "Come forward and take a look, if there is danger, go back the same way." ”

Zhang Fu and Mu Lun were in the front, Zhang Taiji was in the middle, and the five children were behind. After walking for a while, I turned a corner, and two groups of people appeared in front of me who were facing each other.

Mu Lun really had extraordinary hearing, and his guess was basically correct, and there were seven people blocking the way, all holding swords, daggers and other weapons, and one of them seemed to have injured his leg and sat on the ground moaning.

There were three people who were stopped in their way, a tall and strong man, a scholar in his twenties, leading a horse, and a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy who looked like a scholar.

At this moment, the big man was holding a flat pole in his hand, and the scholar was holding an umbrella, blocking in front of the scholar. Seeing that the scholar's appearance was quite calm, he should have been negotiating with the thief opposite, but when he found Zhang Taiji and several people appearing, he stopped talking and looked at Zhang Taiji.

The scholar glanced at it a few times, and should have judged that Zhang Taiji and they were not in danger, because a few children and a scribe didn't look like bad people, so the scholar shouted: "A few friends come over to help, let's capture these thieves together and send them to the government for punishment." ”

Zhang Fu and Mu Lun naturally didn't move, their eyes looked at Zhang Taiji, Zhang Taiji saw the bandits opposite, his expression was already panicked, they didn't bargain just now, if Zhang Taiji and they helped the scholar and the gang again, the thieves would naturally be even more opponents.

Quickly analyzing the form, Zhang Taiji shouted: "Beat the thief." ”

As soon as Zhang Taiji spoke, Mu Lun drew his bow and arrows, hit the horse and rushed out, and then several children also shouted and followed! Zhang Taiji and Zhang Fu fell behind, and the two looked at each other, both of them were surprised by each other's eyes!

It's really 'newborn calves are not afraid of tigers'! Mullenze's horse came to the thief more than ten paces away and stopped the horse, opened the bow and released the arrow, and with a whooshing sound, a thief with a knife on the opposite side screamed miserably! An arrow had just been struck in the man's shoulder.

When Mullen saw that he had been shot, he shouted excitedly, and the others shouted to cheer, and he once again aimed his bow and arrow at the thief, who saw that the situation was gone, and helped the wounded, turned his head and burrowed into the woods, and after a while he disappeared.

When the crisis was resolved, the scholar arched his hand towards Mu Lun from a distance and said, "Sure enough, it's a hero out of a young man!" "Thank you for your help. Mu Lun smiled shyly and didn't answer, turned the horse and came to Zhang Taiji, hehe smirked, looking like 'you praise me'!

Zhang Taiji naturally praised him, and the words of praise were not for money, and several children looked at Mu Lun with the eyes of heroes. Mullen was so useful that his mouth was about to smile crookedly!

Zhang Taiji and the others spoke for a while, and the scholar stood in place and watched, not impatient at all, but more curious, and when Zhang Taiji finished speaking, he arched his hand towards Zhang Taiji and said, "Childe, would you like to go with us?" ”

Hearing the question, Zhang Taiji looked at this scholar carefully, this person is polite and polite, with a long body, a slightly thin figure, a face like a crown of jade, white teeth and red lips, sword eyebrows and tiger eyes, and his eyes are full of wisdom and squareness, what a talent!

After looking at it for a moment, Zhang Taiji immediately returned the salute with his fists and said, "The little brother also has this intention!" ”

"You can't stay in the land of right and wrong for a long time, let's leave quickly, right?" The scholar said.

"What Brother Tai said is very true!" Zhang Taiji turned his head and shouted, "Everyone hurry up and leave the woods." ”

The scholar and the scholar rode a horse together, and the big man ran with a salute, which was not slower than Zhang Taiji and them! In a short time the people left the woods, and they hurried forward for another hour, and in the distance they could see a town shop.

Everyone was tired from rushing all the way, Zhang Taiji discussed with the scholars and decided to stay in the town for one night and leave tomorrow morning.

Found the inn, arranged the room, instructed Xiao Er to prepare a meal, and a few people sat in the lobby to drink tea and rest, Zhang Taiji asked: "Brother Taigui's surname is high, I don't know how to call it?" ”

"Your surname is Han, the word is flying, it is the Yidu clan, I don't know what the little brother is called?"

"The kid Zhang Taiji is from Jiaoxi County, Jiaozhou."

"Ahh Could it be that you are the 'prodigy' Zhang Taiji? "This Han Gongzi has obviously heard of Zhang Taiji's name.

"Prodigy, the kid is ashamed!" Zhang Taiji was happy in his heart, pretending to be modest in his mouth, the two of them talked happily with each other.

It turned out that this Han Feiyang was a new science and technology jinshi this year, and he was about to go to Jiaoxi County to take up his post, and he was a county leader of eight grades.

Jiaoxi County is the upper county, with a member of Dalu Huachi, a member of the county Yin, and from the six products, a member of the county, and eight products; A member of the main book, from the eighth grade; A member of the county lieutenant, from the ninth grade.

It is said that ten years of hard work in the cold window, once the title of the gold list! It's already very difficult, why do you only have an eight-grade petty official?

In fact, this is normal in the Tang and Song dynasties, and it is even more valuable in the Yuan Dynasty.

Since Han Feiyang had just come from the capital, Zhang Taiji couldn't help but ask him about the current politics and world affairs, since Han Feiyang confirmed that he was Zhang Taiji, he did not despise him because of his young age, but knew everything, and he had the meaning of being a confidant!

Since then, several people have walked all the way, Zhang Taiji and Han Feiyang admire each other, and they have nothing to talk about.

Han Feiyang was able to enter high school at the age of 20, and he was naturally knowledgeable and talented! Zhang Taijisheng is ahead of his thinking, has novel views, and occasionally says some knowledge popularized by later generations, which can make Han Feiyang admire!

From Han Feiyang's narration, Zhang Taiji learned a lot of new and interesting things.

One is that the Yangtze River was cut off, and it is rumored that in Taixing County (now Taixing City) in Jiangsu Province this year, the water of the Yangtze River, which had never been cut off for thousands of years, suddenly dried up overnight, and the next day residents along the river went down to the river to pick up relics. Suddenly, the river tide came and drowned many people.

Zhang Taiji had never heard of this before, and even in later generations, there were many phenomena that no one could explain. The Yangtze River is broken, which is probably an unsolved mystery in history!

Another thing is more funny, the year before last, that is, in the fifth year of Zhizheng, Henan Province Peng Fan Meng and Huo Ba lost and other accomplices pretended to be envoys of the imperial court, falsely preached the holy decree, and openly killed the provincial Pingzhang Yuelu Buhua, Zuo Cheng Zhenglie, etc. in the provincial official office.

Fan Meng falsely claimed that the Holy Decree made him the marshal of Henan, appointed him as a return official, and took Duan Fu as Zuocheng. Within a few days, it was revealed that Fan Meng and others were killed, and thousands of local officials were implicated.

When Zhang Taiji heard this, he couldn't help but open his mind, when would he have a 'fake holy decree' to play!

After two days, several people finally came to Jiaoxi City, Han Feiyang rushed to take up his new post, Zhang Taiji sincerely invited him, he must go to Xiangyangpo as a guest when he has time, Han Feiyang naturally agreed, and the two waved goodbye.

Zhang Taiji returned home, and after asking his mother Han Yue'e to say goodbye, he took people to prepare the venue without resting to take over the cattle and horses.

Ling'er was very happy to hear that Zhang Taiji had returned, but as soon as she saw Zhang Taiji, her face immediately turned cloudy and then cloudy, and she couldn't stop complaining about Zhang Taiji, and she was very dissatisfied with him for more than a month.

Zhang Taiji listened with a smile, and he also understood in his heart that the two of them had been separated for the longest time since they were children, and it was normal to be worried about them! He only used one sentence to make Ling'er turn his anger into joy, "I'll teach you to ride a horse." ”
