Chapter 1: Escape from the Homeland
The scorching sun, the scorching sun is like fire,
The whole earth seemed to be burning like a fire.
In this blazing hot weather when few people go out, a tall and sturdy, ten-year-old young man walked along the crooked path in the mountains, opening his shirt to reveal the thick chest hair on his chest as he walked, in order to release the heat on his body. Although he knew that it was futile, he still fanned the corners of his clothes, and the breeze that drove him felt cooler.
This person is Lu Da, the young owner of Lujiazhuang, because of his natural divine power, and his father has some real estate money, so he has been practicing boxing and legs, dancing knives and guns, worshipping six or seven masters, and practicing martial arts for two or three years. Although his martial arts are not strong, he feels that he is invincible in the world, so he always regards himself as a hero and often loves to fight.
As the young owner of Lujiazhuang, he didn't have to rush in this scorching weather, but because of a quarrel with the third young master Bai of Baijiazhuang in the neighborhood, the two of them started to fight, Lu Da missed and beat people to death, greedy for life lawsuits, and had to carry the two hundred taels of silver given by his father in desperation, and began to run away on the same day.
The idea of the old owner of Lu Zhuang was to let him go straight to an old man in Bianliang, Tokyo to find a way out, but because Lu Da had never left Lujiazhuang within a radius of thirty miles since he was a child, and he was in a hurry to escape, he panicked like a fish that slipped through the net, and he went all the way to the west when he should have gone east......
The weather in the mountains is changing, just now it was still the scorching sun like fire, a gust of wind blew, the wind howled, the earth flew all over the sky, followed by lightning, a thrilling thunder rolled over, the downpour fell from the sky, splitting the head and covering the face to Lu Da.
There was no one in the wilderness, and there was nowhere to hide, so Lu Da fell like a chicken in soup, and he was wet all over, quickened his pace, and hurried forward, and while running, he saw a small dilapidated temple at the foot of the mountain not far in front of him, so he ran over.
The small temple is really dilapidated, the gate is on the side, the city emperor in the temple is staring at the gate angrily, there is a grinning judge standing on the left and right, in this hazy thunderstorm, it gives people a gloomy feeling, fortunately, Lu Da was born bold, and he was born with a heart that is not afraid of heaven and earth, but he didn't feel anything.
Lu Da stood in front of the statue of the city emperor and said jokingly: "I'm sorry to disturb your old man's cultivation." Then he took off his coat, wrung out all the water, and then brushed the dust off the table, spread it on it, and lay down on his back with his head in his hands, and in a while he fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, I was woken up by a burst of crying and scolding in my sleep, Lu Da turned over and sat on the offering table, and found that the wind and rain had stopped at this time, and listened carefully, the crying and scolding came from the mountain road, he came to the door of the small temple, looked at the sound, and saw more than a dozen people wearing strange costumes and holding knives and guns in their hands, and they were chasing seven or eight Song Dynasty women, walking towards this side step by step. Lu Da looked at it very strangely, and suddenly remembered that these people in strange costumes were not the Xixia people that his father often mentioned? How did the Tangut people come here?
In fact, Lu Da didn't know that after a few days of hurried travel, he had already run to the border junction between the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, and came to the Heishui area of the Great Song Dynasty, which is also the place where the Western Xia people often haunt. Now these dozen or so Western Xia soldiers took advantage of the cloudy rain and the Great Song garrison neglected the defense, crossed the border and looted eight women, and were about to bring them back for the fun of ****.
Seeing that the eight women were being pushed and beaten like cattle, Lu Da stepped forward and shouted, "Stop! ”
The walking procession heard the cheers and stopped.
When a Western Xia commander saw a stunned young man blocking his way, he walked over and said in a stiff Chinese dialect: "Who are you? Dare to stop the army of our Great Western Xia Kingdom. ”
Lu Dayi pointed to his nose and said, "Do you ask me?" ”
The ten-captain said, "Is there anyone else here?" ”
Lu Dahaha smiled and said, "Okay, you stand firm, I'll tell you." ”
The ten-captain said, "You say, who are you?" ”
Lu Da said: "Tell you, I am your eighteenth ancestor. ”
The Tenth Master was stunned and asked, "Who is the Eighteenth Ancestor?" ”
Lu Da laughed again and said: "Are you really stupid or fake stupid, the eighteenth generation of ancestors is your grandfather's grandfather, grandfather's grandfather, grandfather's grandfather......"
The ten-captain heard it clearly this time, and suddenly realized that this stupid boy was scolding himself. He took a step forward, raised the Xixia scimitar in his hand without saying a word, and slashed at Lu Da head-on, Lu Da flashed over quickly and said: "Sun Tzu, why do you start to do it while you talk, you are really uneducated." ”
The ten-master was even more annoyed, brushing three knives in a row, Lu Da had no weapon in his hand, and was forced to retreat again and again, shouting while retreating: "You are really ****** playing." ”
The ten-captain laughed and chased after him, "Boy, see that you are still poor-mouthed. ”
Saying that it was three more knives, Lu Da had no choice but to roll on the spot and dodge the blade that split over.
The Centurion laughed and said, "So you can roll around as a dog." As soon as the words fell, he threw down his scimitar and rubbed his eyes with both hands, and it turned out that Lu Da grabbed a handful of sand and raised it on the face of the Ten-Commander.
While the ten-captain rubbed his eyes, Lu Da quickly jumped up, grabbed the scimitar on the ground, and slashed at the ten-captain, the guy fell to the ground with a scream, his legs were like chickens when he was dying, and he burped when he boarded up.
The remaining ten guys, when they saw that their chief was finished playing, screamed and surrounded them, Lu Da had a weapon in his hand, and his courage became fat, and he shouted: "Kill!" He picked up the scimitar in his hand and rushed into the enemy line, chopping melons and vegetables.
Lu Da was stabbed three times in the back and twice in the chest, and the ten Western Xia soldiers all fell to the ground and died.
Lu Da sat on the ground injured and tired, and the eight women who were trembling and scared just now knelt down in front of Lu Da and said, "Thank you for saving your life." ”
"Thank you, hero!"
The benefactor is long, the benefactor is short, and the thank you is endless.
Lu waved his hand and said, "Thank you, how can I watch you being bullied as a big man." Get up, get up, and go home quickly. ”
They all stood up and went home together, except for a girl of sixteen or seventeen years of age, slender and slender with big eyes flashing with big eyes.
Lu Dadao: "Girl, why don't you go." ”
The girl pointed to the wound on Lu Da's body and said, "You are injured, let me help you bandage the wound."
Lu Dadao: "It's okay, it's all skin injuries." ”
The girl said, "There is so much blood, why do you have to bandage it?" ”
Lu Da said: "Okay, let's go to the Chenghuang Temple in front, where is my baggage." As he spoke, he gritted his teeth and was about to stand up, but he stumbled and almost didn't fall, the girl stepped forward and helped him, and said softly: "I'll help you go." ”
It was the first time that Lu Dachang had such close contact with a girl, and he couldn't help blushing and said, "Thank you, girl." ”
The girl snorted and said, "You're welcome, you're my savior." ”
The two came to the temple with their arms, and Lu Da pointed to the burden on the ground and said, "There are clothes there." ”
The girl helped Lu Da to sit down against the offering table, opened the baggage, picked out a white cloth dress from it, tore it into strips, and then grabbed a few handfuls of incense ash from the incense burner in front of the statue of the city emperor and pressed it on Lu Da's wound, and then carefully bandaged Lu Da's wound with a strip of cloth. After doing all this, the girl asked softly, "Is the eldest brother's wound still painful?" ”
Although the wound was still very painful, Lu Da said with a smile: "It was still very painful just now, but now I don't feel pain after you bandage it like this." ”
The girl said, "Yes, that's great." ”
Lu Da said: "Girl, my wound is fine, you should hurry home, so as not to worry about the family." ”
The girl shook her head bitterly and said, "I don't have a home anymore." ”
Lu Da asked in surprise, "What about your family?" ”
The girl lowered her head and choked up: "My father and my brother were killed by the Tangut people today to protect me, and I am already homeless." ”
Lu Da said: "What should I do then? ”
The girl lowered her head a little shyly and said, "Big brother, take me away." ”
Lu Da thought to himself that he was still running for his life, how could he take her with him, and it was too inconvenient for a young man to walk with a girl. He rubbed his hands together and said, "This is not good, it is inconvenient for us to walk together." ”
The girl said, "We are called brother and sister, you are my brother, I am your sister, what's inconvenient." ”
Lu Dadao: "It's really inconvenient. ”
The girl cried, "Then it is better to let the Tangut people kill me just now." ”
Seeing the girl like this, she had to be embarrassed and said, "Okay, don't cry, let's go." ”
The girl broke into tears and bowed to Lu Da with a smile and said, "Little sister has thanked the eldest brother here." ”
Lu Dadao: "After talking for a long time, I still don't know what your name is, girl?" ”
The girl said: "My surname is Ouyang, and my family calls me Yingying. You can also call me Yingying. Big brother, what's your name. ”
Lu Da said in a humble voice: "My surname is Lu, and my name is Lu Da." ”
The girl said, "Okay, I'll call you Brother Lu!" ”
At this time, it was close to dusk, and Lu Da thought to himself why he couldn't stay in this deserted temple for a night, so he asked: "Girl, you are a local person, do you know that there are villages and towns near here?" ”
The girl said, "Two miles further from here, there is a village. ”
Lu Da said: "Miss Yingying, let's go, and rush to the village in front of us to stay." ”
Ying Ying said: "You are injured, can your body bear it?" ”
Lu Da said: "It's okay, I'm strong, this little injury is not in the way." ”
