Chapter 24: The Road to Rivalry is Narrow
The group of knights rode their horses and trotted all the way, and the ranks soon fell silent. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ infoIn the face of this kind of confident and leisurely action, the coercion that came to the face made Minzhuang, who had only experienced one battle and was no worse than the rabble, already tremble and his mouth was dry.
Wu Yong's face was not good-looking, he turned to look at Xu Zhengze, only to see that Xu Zhengze's fair skin was even whiter, dumbfounded, and completely frightened.
"Well, I haven't experienced anything big after all." Wu Yong sighed secretly, but he still couldn't hide the horror in his heart, he remembered the fight yesterday again.
"Aha, little brother, long time no see, we meet again, ah." The middle-aged man who took the lead drove forward and said with a smile. Wu Yong was very embarrassed when he heard it, I only met yesterday, how could I not see each other for a long time?
"Thank you for yesterday's events...... General, the grace of saving his life, Wu Yong will never dare to forget. After all, the other party saved his life yesterday, he owes such a big favor, and the other party is so strong, Wu Yong always has to say something thankful, this is a basic matter of politeness.
"Brother Wu misunderstood, I'm not talking about you. I'm talking about the son. The man pointed his finger, and Wu Yong looked in the direction he was pointing, and it turned out to be Xu Zhengze.
Wu Yong, who was confused, secretly guessed when the two had met, he looked at Xu Zhengze, but saw that he had no reaction to the middle-aged man's words at all, just stared intently at a beautiful female general in the team, and swallowed a few saliva from time to time.
Wu Yong secretly sweated when he saw it, none of these people are good at stubble, they are all good at fighting, and if he pulls out one person, he may not be able to win, Xu Zhengze even dares to be colorful! Especially that woman, she was not inferior to a man at all when she slashed and killed yesterday, and more importantly, she was the precious daughter of the leader of the family.
"Little brother Xu Zhengze, right?" Although the middle-aged man was questioning, it was a completely affirmative tone, he still remembered Xu Zhengze, seeing him staring at his daughter with "squinting", but he was not angry, just greeted with a smile, "After so long, let's meet again." β
They really knew each other, this person actually called out Xu Zhengze's name at once, Wu Yong didn't know whether to be surprised or happy, he never knew about it - I think it was a long time ago, after all, he and Xu Zhengze had only known each other for a month.
"Ah...... Ha ha...... True...... What a coincidence. Xu Zhengze finally came back to his senses, he glanced at the woman as quickly as a ghost, and made sure that it was not that there was something wrong with his eyes, but that things were so coincidental. Wu Yong looked at Xu Zhengze, who was not far away, and his cheeks were about to cramp, and he finally held back a few words, and over there, the female general who had been offended for a long time just sneered slightly, and he became more and more confused.
The middle-aged man glanced back at his daughter, and looked at her face to know that this tomboy named Xu Zhengze was about to suffer, and he looked at Xu Zhengze's face again, which was really interesting. This person doesn't know if it's a monk or a son, after three months, his hair is still so short, it's like he has been gnawed by a dog, it's messy, but don't mind.
"Oh, this is your centaurs?" The middle-aged man looked at the people in line and asked, "Is it the two of you who practice?" It's a little interesting, and the line is good. β
Xu Zhengze didn't know what to say, he didn't expect the evaluation to be so low - it was just a little interesting, can you make a more neat queue? He didn't answer, Wu Yong followed, nodded and said, "It's Brother Xu who practiced it, I don't know much about this." β
"Hey." Xu Zhengze turned his head and saw a demon's smiling face, "I didn't expect us to meet again, I will repay the grace of the dripping water that day." β
Xu Zhengze was originally worried, he met the old enemy, but he couldn't beat others, can he not be afraid? was beaten by someone, and the bruised nose and swollen face were nothing, but the bruised nose and swollen face that was beaten by a woman and then known to everyone again, is he still alive? It's just that how can this woman do this, threaten me? Xu Zhengze is an eight-foot man, and he has been very rebellious since he was a child, where can he stand this anger?
"Don't be hypocritical, isn't you? You just have to do what you want, Lao Tzu frowned and was raised by a bitch. Xu Zhengze also replied politely, in fact, what he said in his heart was "Lao Tzu frowned and you raised it" - of course he didn't dare to say it, the woman had already pursed her lips, and her left hand clenched the long knife on her waist, Xu Zhengze was startled, and quickly turned around and left, no matter what, he didn't want to be beaten by this little girl in front of so many people.
After running a few steps, he followed Wu Yong and the middle-aged man, only to hear the middle-aged man ask, "Is everyone here?" Nothing missing? β
Wu Yong hesitated for a few moments before replying that no, just like that, Xu Zhengze estimated that the middle-aged man didn't believe it, but fortunately, the other party didn't ask much. He stepped forward and interjected: "Many people have gotten the news in advance and have fled, and it is estimated that there are not many people left in the village now." β
The two turned around and looked at Xu Zhengze in surprise, who doesn't know about this, just don't say it, so hello, I'm good, everyone, no one is embarrassed, why did he break it? Wu Yonglian glanced at him and signaled him to speak carefully, the middle-aged man's gaze was slightly deflected, and he naturally saw it clearly, and he smiled: "I've walked all over the place, will I catch them again?" What is it worth? β
"My lord is wise, the three of them work together, and their profits are gold. As long as we are united, why not win, if you force people to join the gang, and as a result, people will be in Cao Ying, and you will be in Han, won't you cause trouble for yourself? Hearing that the other party meant not to pursue it, Xu Zhengze immediately offered a compliment that he didn't want money, he really didn't want those refugees who fled to be chased and killed by the rebels again.
The atmosphere froze for a while, Xu Zhengze looked at the people around him strangely, especially Wu Yong's face, he wanted to speak but couldn't say it, his face turned red, but soon it became white again, Xu Zhengze also reacted at once, it was broken, and it was self-defeating.
"Being in Cao Ying's heart is in Han, are you talking about yourself?" At the critical moment, the woman stepped forward and said coldly, it's no wonder people are suspicious, who has no idea when they hear this? Even the middle-aged man looked at Xu Zhengze with a smile to see what he said.
"No, I don't mean anything else, I'm just saying that those who escaped should let him go, and it will take time and effort to capture them back, and it will not be good." Xu Zhengze hurriedly explained, if this makes these people misunderstand, they still have a good time? Wu Yong is a powerful person, and he is outstanding with a fast arrow in one hand, and his face turned pale with fright, "We stayed voluntarily." β
"Being in Cao Ying's heart is in Han, do you mean that you haven't met Shu Han who can make you return to your heart now, so you can only temporarily condescend to Cao Ying?" The woman didn't give up, snorted coldly and said, Xu Zhengze's face turned green when he said a word, he didn't have such a mind, at least not now, so he said, isn't he in prison?
Seeing that Xu Zhengze's white face was flushed, and the woman was still arguing, the middle-aged man said softly: "Okay, okay, Wanniang, there is no need to say it again, I know what Brother Xu meant, he just talks about things, and has no other meaning." β
"It's still an adult." Listening to the middle-aged man's words, Xu Zhengze breathed a sigh of relief, he was annoyed by the woman's heart-wrenching words, and he was not polite at all.
Glancing up at the woman, Xu Zhengze was surprised to find that the atmosphere around him was almost frozen, angering the other party? Xu Zhengze's heart was worried, and he turned his head to look at Wu Yong, but saw that his face was that kind of ashamed and embarrassed, his cheeks were bulging, and he seemed to be unable to say anything after holding his stomach, but he didn't see him scared? looked around, the faces of the people around him were all weird, and the woman was even more disdainful, what was wrong?
"Brother Xu's parents are still there?" The middle-aged man was also stunned for a while, and when he reacted, he looked at him strangely and asked.
"Ah, it's gone." Xu Zhengze hurriedly shook his head, his parents' people are still there, but they are in another world, so he can only say that he is not there, otherwise if he wants to see his parents, where will he find them?
"Hmm." The middle-aged man looked around and asked Wu Yong, "Are you going to follow the team back to the camp today?" Or stay here for the time being. β
"Hmm...... It's still going to camp. Wu Yong didn't want to go, but he didn't dare to say it, Xu Zhengze didn't say anything, the other party was polite to them, how dare the two of them take it seriously, they can't be so naΓ―ve. Seeing that the middle-aged man looked at him, Xu Zhengze hurriedly shook his head and said that it was better to go back to the camp.
The middle-aged man nodded, he looked at the group of people in front of the village again, and asked again: "Do you have any people who don't want to follow us, go now, go and stay for yourself, and never stop you. β
After speaking, he turned back to Xu Zhengze and smiled: "Brother Xu's words reminded me that recruiting people requires people to be willing, and the twisted melon is not sweet." β
Xu Zhengze smiled stupidly, he finally knew who this person was, the bandits entrenched in Zhongtiao Mountain, with three or four hundred people under his hands, but they plundered the prefectures and counties, and the officials and soldiers could not stop it. This Li Tianwang is famous, and the local sergeants and officials are as fearful as tigers, and the children can stop crying when they hear his name - Mom, this guy is notoriously fierce, the officials and soldiers have repeatedly encircled and suppressed, and he has beaten him like a dog, no wonder in front of him, as strong as Wu Yong, he does not dare to blow up the thorns, compared with others, they are the ants on the side of the elephant.
