Chapter 114: The Willow Forest Strange Land
The visitor hurriedly retreated. After receiving the news www.biquge.info Zhan Ana and others outside the city also hurriedly bypassed the city and continued to move forward.
Jin Yujie showed some dissatisfaction, and said in a mocking tone: "Xiangyang is such a big shelf! We were not invited to rest in the city! Let's go around the city, this shows that we don't put Miao Jiang in our eyes, right? ”
"Alright, alright. You say a few words. Don't forget the words of the Great Toast when you leave, don't have conflicts with the princes from all walks of life along the way. Defend your strength, attack Goryeo, and take Yanjing! Zhan Ana moved out of Ouyang Jiaojiao, hoping to deter Jin Yujie, and everyone knows her character well, sometimes like a madman. Anything is done. It's just a ticking time bomb.
The sound of Xue Yiqiao can make people quiet, very ethereal, and always feel like a fairy and said: "Don't think too much!" The most important thing at the moment is to hurry and arrive in Yanjing as soon as possible. So as not to have too many dreams at night! ”
He Zehui was immersed in the thought of Meng Ting again, which made Xue Yiqiao very worried, if he continued like this, sooner or later he would show his feet and let Da Tusi know. But I don't know how to wake him up now.
Zhang Renjie had just led his troops through Yanzhou, and the team in Longtan immediately retreated, as if they were finally leaving, and this road was terrifying. I'm always afraid that this group of people will make some kind of trouble.
Looking at the boundary of the willow forest, there are three or five villages next to it, and a small river blocks everyone's retreat, but fortunately, the river is not particularly deep, and you can still pass it by horse.
Many women by the river were carrying wooden basins, carrying soaphorns and mallets and beating clothes. There are also many girls among them, but their methods are more rusty.
After seeing Zhang Renjie's army, he didn't run away, he wasn't surprised, he just did his own thing quietly. Ignore. Not at all like ordinary people.
Zhang Renjie couldn't help but be a little curious, and asked Yang Kang beside him: "Which general is this stationed in Liulin?" It seems that the governance is also in good order, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the relationship between the military and the people is handled very well! ”
Before Yang Kang could answer, a girl over there seemed to have heard it, and said with disdain: "Army? What army? We're only afraid of robbers here. Those people kill people without blinking, we are not afraid to deal with them, and we are afraid of these big-headed soldiers who have never seen blood? It's ridiculous! ”
"Say less! Don't get killed! The older woman next to her said aptly by the arm. lest they be angered.
However, it can be seen that they seem to have a relatively light view of life and death, which may come from long-term dealings with robbers. Naturally, they were not afraid.
Zhang Renjie's curious taste was even heavier, and after getting off the horse, Meng Lei also hurriedly followed. I saw that the girl was wearing a gray coarse cloth shirt just now, her long hair was coiled on the top of her head, and her little hands were red from the cold, but she still carried her clothes and soaked them in cold water. The small face is also pretty, the chin is pointed, and the face plate is not too long. A pair of eyes are also very good-looking. It couldn't help but make Meng Lei feel uneasy, and there was quite a bit of impulse between men and women.
Zhang Renjie said very kindly: "This girl! Excuse me, what robbers are here? ”
Compared with Zhang Renjie asking about business, Meng Lei felt more sorry for this woman's small hands. It feels very distressing.
The woman next to her hurriedly pulled the woman back, and said, "Go home, go home!" Ignore these people! Those robbers are elusive and huge! Maybe they've been eyeing these big-headed soldiers for a long time! Don't get killed! Walk. ”
Hearing this woman, all the women around gathered their things and hurried towards the village.
This made Zhang Renjie even more curious, and after getting on the horse, he asked Yang Kang while moving forward: "There are robbers in Liulin?" ”
Yang Kang recalled what he had heard in the past, and then he spoke: "Childe! It is said that there is! And the amount is considerable, plus the land is barren and cannot produce a large amount of food. Because of this, whether it is Taiyuan or Yanzhou. No one wants to manage this territory. ”
"So that's the case, then look around, the mountains are beautiful, and there must be a lot of game in them! Is this a property? Zhang Renjie continued to ask.
"Childe, you don't know! There is indeed a lot of game in the mountains, but there are also many hunters. The robbers gathered like this, and it is said that they occupy a lot of mountains, and they also call themselves the king of Montenegro! The situation in the mountains is complicated. It's easy to defend and hard to attack, and no one wants to touch that brow! ”
After listening to Yang Kang's words, Zhang Renjie understood a little bit about this realm. After crossing the river, it should be about thirty miles away, far away from the village, and there is a deserted town next to it. There are many finger-wide cracks on the loess city wall, and the gate is already rotten, and when you pinch it with your hand, a lot of broken wood slag falls from the fingers. Some tiny wood bugs appear.
When I opened the door, the houses inside had collapsed, and the streets were littered with wooden shelves, broken chairs, and a thick layer of leaves. It's just some cobwebs. Looking down the collapsed wall into a remote room, there was a black coffin inside, and there were many rats "squeak!" "of.
A few steps further, Zhang Renjie stepped on something and took a step back. Kick the leaves with your feet, and the development turns out to be a skeleton of Bai Sensen! At the center of the eyebrows, there is also a small hole! It seems that he was killed by an arrow!
Further inside, you could feel a lot of things clattering under the leaves, like protruding stones. When I picked up the leaves, I found that they were all dry bones. Bai Sensen's. The texture is still very hard. There were also a lot of tattered strips of cloth hanging on it.
Yang Kang's Pingbei Army is basically composed of ordinary people, all of them look panicked, and they don't dare to look at the corpses that have been dead for some time!
Further on, a house looks very spacious, the gate is hidden, and stone lions are placed on both sides, but it is no longer so symmetrical, and the cracks in the door are cobwebs. The plaque hanging on it is also hung at one end and in the air at the other.
Meng Lei hurriedly jumped up and took it off, and placed it in front of Zhang Renjie, and the two imposing characters on it seemed to tell about prosperity.
"Duan Mansion!" After reading the words above, Meng Lei threw the plaque to the side. Only then did the door open. The courtyard was full of weeds and branches that grew wantonly, and there was no place for it, and further on, there was the main hall, and a corpse was lying on the ground, as if begging for mercy, and two white bones were still sitting on the two chairs in front of it, and a sharp knife was stuck in the chest, and it died.
The rest of the place is desolate and boneless! There is only a tall building, which seems to tell the grandeur of the past.
Meng Lei carefully analyzed these bones and said, "Childe, the time of death of these people should not be particularly long!" Another handful of clothes, before the powder was formed, continued: "It should be about five to seven years!" But what is the reason exactly? All the people in this small city were killed! ”
Zhang Renjie was also very curious, feeling that when he came to Liulin, everything was weird, from the faces of those women, and this deserted city! It's only about 30 miles away from that village! Why didn't those people move here? I knew there was a city wall here, and although it was broken, it could still be used as long as it was repaired a little! Wouldn't that be better to defend against robbers?
Yang Kang also kept shaking his head: "I don't know, I basically also operate in the Yanzhou area, and my knowledge of Liulin is limited to what the fleeing people say, except for the rest just now." ”
"Oh! That's weird! Everyone rests in place and spends the night here! Plus patrols at night! Zhang Renjie ordered.
