"How long will it take?" Li Yongbo lifted the curtain of his car and looked out cautiously, but the scenery was still the unchanging wild and silent mountains and forests along the way, and occasionally he could see the knights guarding the carriage - all of them were masked with black cloth and wore bamboo hats painted on their heads. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he dropped the curtain and snorted at the other person in the carriage: "Could it be a thief's nest, can it be built better than the emperor's grandfather's Forbidden City?" ”

It seems that Si Swenwen, a young man dressed as a scholar, has been sitting upright, and when he heard the words, he just smiled lightly: "Uncle Guan'er really likes to laugh." Then he looked at the notebook in his hand with relish—it seemed that the continuous jolts had no effect on him, even some kind of pleasure.

Liu Gui, the second steward of the Liu Mansion who was sitting next to Li Yongbo, gently pulled his sleeve, and said silently with his mouth in the dissatisfied gaze that Li Yongbo saw: "Uncle Guan'er, be quiet." At the same time, he quietly squeezed the arm of the impatient young man—a sign of patience and danger in the code they had previously discussed.

The small convoy was in an unknown mountain near Luzhou. Broken and narrow mountain roads loom in the mountains, and the distant and intermittent howls of fierce beasts can be heard from the deep and dark mountain forests, which is even more terrifying, as if spring is coming later than other places.

"Boss Wang, we've been walking for so long, it's always time to arrive, right?" Li Yongbo really couldn't bear the deathly silence in the carriage, he spoke impatiently, and the contempt on his face flashed: "Even King Zheng's Eagle Head Village is not as difficult to find as you are. ”

"So the surname Zheng is dead, and we are still alive." The young man, who was called the leader of the king by Li Yongbo, replied to him slowly, turned a page of the book, and turned his face to speak to Liu Gui with a cold expression: "Why did you bring such a melon baby?" If Liu Sanye doesn't come by himself, forget it, if he calls someone to come, he can be called smart! ”

Before Li Yongbo could attack, Liu Gui had already grabbed his hand and pressed him to the seat, and then said to the leader of the king with a smile on his face and a little flattery: "My lord is now old and can't go far. ”

Liu Gui's words made the face of the king leader soothe slightly. He rolled up the notebook and stuffed it into his cuffs, glanced at Li Yongbo with a mocking face, and then withdrew his gaze and said to Liu Guizheng: "Master, you are also an old man, please teach your young master well, and tell him to learn from the clam shell and keep his mouth shut, otherwise," a strange and distorted smile appeared on the face of the young man who looked gentle, and the cruelty in his eyes disappeared: "I'm afraid, you can only go back single!" ”

As soon as his words fell, the carriage shook violently, and the leader of the king immediately put his face on the board, pricked up his ears to listen to it, and then leaned on the entrance of the carriage to look out, and after he came back, he didn't look at Li Yongbo, who was purple-skinned, and only said to Liu Guidao: "Master, call your young master, prepare to get off, the village has arrived!" ”

However, Li Yongbo jumped out of the carriage and found a sheep intestine winding mountain path that had not entered the mountains, and was about to open his mouth when Liu Gui interrupted: "The stockade is naturally on a high place, and the carriage can't go up, and the rest of the road king leaders will naturally take us away." He gave Li Yongbo another look, so that he remembered what the previous surnamed Wang said, and closed his mouth stupidly.

A group of people abandoned horses and abandoned cars, under the leadership of the king leader, walked for two hours on the sheep intestine road between the cliffs, until the sky was dark, I finally saw a hastily built walled gate to guard the mountain road, the cliffs on both sides were built on the hope tower, the sky was dark, only the figures above could be seen, the king raised his hand to signal the team to stop, and shouted in a hurry: "Shake the line to turn old!" ”

(The one who went out is back)

Someone on the other side immediately roared and replied: "Did you smoke the primer? Fall into the teachings? ”

(I don't know the rules)

The leader of the king replied unhurriedly: "It's the brother of Fushun's old cousin!" ”

(Bandits from Fushun are close to people)

The other side shouted again: "How many people are in the brother's house? ”

(A few people came)

"Take the boss to run!" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a creaking sound from the walled gate, and a few people came out to greet the group. The leader of the king signaled Liu Gui to be optimistic about Li Yongbo, took a few steps forward, made a circle, and said in a loud voice: "The person who traveled far away turns back and makes an arch for my brother!" ”

(Two came, with respect for the young)

The first person held his chest with his hands, looked Liu Gui and Li Yongbo, who were pale and calm, up and down, and turned his head expressionlessly with the entourage behind him and ordered: "Go back and report to the shopkeeper: Listen to the distinguished guest: the distinguished guest comes to the door, prepares the leader, swings the tail, ginger slices, flat mouth, palm crown, and calls the brothers to accompany the distinguished guest to make powder!" ”

(Distinguished guests come to the door, prepare wine, chicken, duck and fish, and call brothers to accompany the guests to eat)

Just after the end of the hour, Li Yongzhong had already gotten up. After washing up under the service of the sycamore, breakfast has been delivered from the kitchen - new rice and white porridge, small rolls of golden silk steamed buns filled with bean paste, accompanied by a plate of pickled kohlrabi, only mixed with sesame oil and a small handful of shallots. Such a meal, refreshing and full, has been very popular with Li Yongzhong recently.

He had already told Wang Huanzhi and Li Sanzhong yesterday that according to the practice of the past few years, starting today, he would go to the Li family's Zhuangzi outside the city to inspect for two days, during which the affairs of the well field would be entrusted to these two people who are now the number one under Li Yongzhong. For Li Yongzhong, without the secrets in the Zhuangzi outside the city, there would be no him who is now in charge of the Li family.

He only took Wutong and a few guards, and rode a Dian horse and went out lightly. When passing by Li Yongbo's courtyard and walking out, Wutong, who was following Li Yongzhong, suddenly said in a low voice: "I haven't seen Boguan'er for a few days, and the villain went to find a familiar friend in Boguan'er's courtyard to inquire, I heard that he went to Chengdu to relax, and he has been gone for several days." ”

"It's rare." Li Yongzhong sneered, with the wind under his feet, and said without looking back: "In the past few days, the internal and external account offices have not reported me excess expenses. I also said that Li Yongbo finally learned to be a man with his neck bent, but he didn't expect to pat his ass and leave directly. Fortunately, he left the whole family quietly. ”

No one dared to answer this except what he could say, and Wutong said boldly: "But Boguan'er seems to have left alone, and even the ingots were left at home by him." ”

"Yuanbao is a son of the family, and now he looks at the people in his family like black-eyed chickens, and he can't wait for everyone to be his enemy, so how can he take someone to Chengdu? Most likely went to his good uncle's place. Shaking his head and not wanting to say more, Li Yongzhong lifted his legs and stepped out of the threshold of the gate, took the reins handed by the servant and turned over on the horse, and shook the reins without waiting for the others, the docile Dian horse trotted and took steps, the horse's hooves knocked on the bluestone slab, and after a while, the figure of the navy blue blended into the thick morning mist.

Sycamore and a few guards looked at each other speechlessly, and hurried to follow, and after a while, a series of crisp hooves spilled out, mingling with the sound of chicken buses collecting night incense along the street, reminding the residents that a new day had begun again.

Outside the city, the Li family's Zhuangzi is located in the embrace of several hills, only more than 30 miles away from the official road. Originally, there were five or six tenant farmers of the Li family who planted some rice and vegetables indiscriminately, but since Li Yongzhong began to establish the guard team of the Li Mansion five or six years ago, he moved all these families to the flat dam outside the hills, and built a horse watchtower and a barracks stone fort on the road in and out of the valley. After a few years of hard work, the weather here has changed, and it has a bit of a tough taste of the barracks.

Today's turn Liu Xiaoqi is on duty. He put the red armband representing the duty on his left arm, and pinned it with a thin needle that was hammered flat, and looked at it with novelty and pride, and then bent his elbow to touch his companion on duty, and whispered: "This method is really good, you can see the identity at a glance, and it is also different from others." ”

His companion's name was Luo Cheng, two years older than him, but he had been in the guard for three or four years. He glanced at Liu Xiaoqi and said, "Of course this method is good!" Can Zhong Guan'er come up with a bad idea? It's you, don't look at it! Hurry up to your place, and the inspector will check in a while, and if you are not at the sentry post, not only you, but I will eat and hang up together! ”

As the two of them were talking, the sound of hooves came from far and near, and they glanced at each other, and immediately became vigilant. Luo Cheng nodded at Liu Xiaoqi, the two of them stood behind the rejection of the horse across the spear, and after a while, four or five horsemen crashed into their eyes, Luo Cheng's eyes were sharp, and he caught a glimpse of Li Yongzhong, who was riding on a horse, and hurriedly put away the gun and said urgently with Liu Xiaoqi: "It was Zhong Guan'er who brought someone here!" Hurry up and move the rejection horse with me! ”

Xu is the reason for the rain, the sky is gloomy, but Liu Xiaoqi is a finch blindfolded, only vaguely saw a big lump of black and mushy things rushing towards them, his personality is rigid and rigid, remember that the team is Cao Jinliang explained that he had to check the waist card before letting people in, so he refused to move the horse and argued with Luo Cheng: "It's very dark this day, Xu is you wrong!" It's not too late to open the door after checking the waist card! ”

"I have seen Zhong Guan'er's face! What are you doing? Luo Cheng's eyes widened, and he didn't know what to do with Liu Xiaoqi for a while. The rejection horse is half a person tall, full of weight, and it is still too heavy for the two of them to lift together, not to mention that there is only one Luo Cheng! He saw that Liu Xiaoqi didn't listen to what he said, and he was so angry that he wanted to hang this kid upside down on the horse, and between pulling, the team of knights suddenly came, and they were about to collide and cause a tragedy.
