ps: First of all, I would like to report to you, the ranking of our books that were not recommended this week has dropped a few notches, but with the support of all the brothers, I still grabbed the seventh place, far from the eighth place, which is gratifying.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Pei County and the phase line are separated by a large river, although it is not wide, but the water flow is very fast and deep, and the locals call it the Ling River.

The terrain on both sides is mostly barren mountains and mountains, so there is only one ferry crossing of this Ling River, and a sparsely populated town is gathered around.

Zhao Jun returned the same way, because he rode a fast horse alone, so he rushed to the Linghe ferry in five days.

When he arrived at the ferry, Zhao Jun easily found the only town by the Ling River. As soon as Zhao Jun inquired about the people in the town, he learned where Shang Kun was, in fact, it was not surprising that since Shang Kun could gather so many Ren Xia here, he naturally had a certain reputation.

Shang Kun lives in the village two miles southwest of the ferry, and a slightly rough, but also the largest earth-and-stone wall courtyard in the middle is Shang Kun's home.

At this time, it was almost dark, and Zhao Ling in the courtyard was busy drying clothes. And Cao Wushu was on the stone platform in the courtyard, studying the Liutao Art of War on the white silk.

At this time, Shang Kun also rushed back from the ferry, it was dark, and no one wanted to cross the river.

"Hey, it doesn't hurt, why are you kid just holding this thing all day long." It's still spring, and the weather by the river is exceptionally cool. However, Shang Kun was only wearing a short shirt that was very thin, which showed his strong physique.

Seeing that Shang Kun was back, Cao Wuxian got up and smiled proudly: "Hehe, you don't understand this." I call this the Art of War, the Art of War, understand? It's like you're a stupid cow, and you don't have any wisdom at all. ”

Although Cao Wuxian was tall, after standing up, he looked a little weak in front of Shang Kun, the big man of the iron tower, and he was a head shorter.

Shang Kun glared at the bull's eye, took out the wine gourd, and poured a mouthful of strong wine into his mouth, dripping under his chin, on his beard like steel needles, everywhere.

Finally, he wiped his mouth and said, "Uh, phew." Although I don't know the art of war, I can still lead soldiers, you look at the young and strong men around here, which one doesn't listen to Lao Tzu. ”

"Can this lead soldiers be the same as leading Ren Xia?" Cao Wuxian rolled his eyes.

Shang Kun's eyes widened, and he roared like a cow: "You think I won't lead troops? I think back then, in the Northern Army, I was also a well-known centurion, and that against the Huns, it was like chopping melons and vegetables.

I'm telling you, back then, I "

"Stop, stop, stop" As soon as Cao Wuxian heard this, he hurriedly took three steps back: "Anyway, if you don't brag, you'll die, you've said this eight times."

Every time I change the soup without changing the dressing, I have seen great bragging, but bragging, bragging like you, it is true that there is no, you are a cow! ”

After speaking, Cao Wuxian stretched out his thumb with a strange expression.

Shang Kun smiled on his dark face, without the slightest hint of embarrassment, but said proudly: "That is, I am a must, and my temperament to punish the wicked, that is a combination of two uniques, everyone knows it."

Come, I'm telling you a story about me in the border army, thinking about the past."

Cao Wuxian was dumbfounded, with a bitter face. Then he made a pleading, held Shang Kun's arm, and said solemnly: "Brother Kun, are you my own brother, I beg you not to say it, I have also heard this." ”

Shang Kun looked at him and said loudly: "No, you have to listen to this." ”

"I don't listen"

"This can be heard"

"Not really"

The two argued, and at that time, the spittle stars were flying, and it was an earth-shattering cry of ghosts and gods.

Zhao Ling finished his clothes, walked over and smiled: "Okay, don't make any noise, it's like this every day." Whatever you want to eat tonight, I'll make it for you. ”

"It's still Sister Ling's intimate, whatever, the food you cook is the best. No harm, let's go, let's drink and go. Shang Kun laughed out loud and pulled Cao Wuxian to the house.

"Drink it, I won't accept you at this point." Cao Wuxian seems to be used to it, although he is poured down by Shang Kun every time, but he has a hard mouth and never loses on wine.

"If only the boss were here." Cao Wuxian walked at this time, and said with a lost face: "I don't know where the boss is now, how is it?" ”

At the mention of Zhao Jun, the expressions of the three of them obviously changed, Zhao Ling sighed, although he didn't say anything, but the sadness hidden in the depths of his eyebrows and the corners of his eyes was intense and distressing, but she has always been very sensible and will not say it easily.

"Hey, you don't have to worry too much, I think the little brother is not a mortal, and he will definitely be able to turn evil into good fortune. Saying that, I have asked my subordinates to inquire around along the direction of the ferry, and will come to inform us as soon as there is a situation. At this time, Shang Kun spoke.

"Hmm." Cao Wuxian nodded, a little depressed, he was going to go into the house with Shang Kun to drink, and get drunk to relieve a thousand sorrows, and Zhao Ling was also ready to turn around and go to the kitchen to cook.

And then, right now.

Suddenly, a voice sounded from outside the wall.

"Drinking, do you have my share?"

The three of them were stunned, who could come at this time? So, I turned around and looked at the gate of the courtyard.

It's just that in an instant, the three of them collectively opened their mouths wide, and their faces were sluggish.

"Ah, brother? Is that you? ”

Zhao Ling reacted first, exhaled, and opened his mouth wide in surprise, still a little incredulous.

The person who came was Zhao Jun, in fact, he arrived early, and he watched Cao Wuxian arguing with Shang Kun outside, so he also knew more about Shang Kun.

Zhao Jun led the horse at this time, walked into the yard, stepped forward and touched Zhao Ling's head dotingly, and said with a smile: "Silly girl, it's not me, or who is it?" ”

Although it was not a long time, Zhao Jun was also very concerned about Zhao Ling after a life and death parting, and he was also excited to see her at this time.

Zhao Ling was in a turbulent mood at this time, feeling the warmth and familiar breath coming from Zhao Jun's hands, and his heart was full of thoughts and grievances, and all of them suddenly came to his heart.

With a sour nose, Zhao Lingzai couldn't help but miss it for many days, and suddenly with a "wow", he threw himself into Zhao Jun's arms and cried.

"Woo, brother is so good, I thought woo"

There has been no news of Zhao Jun for more than ten days, Zhao Ling is in melancholy almost every day, although he is still smiling on the surface, but his heart is all the time, not thinking about Zhao Jun, when he sees his brother coming back, where can he bear it.

Zhao Jun patted her back comfortingly, and was also quite emotional, and finally helped her up and said, "Okay, Brother Shang and Wu are still there." ”

When Zhao Ling heard this, he stood up with a slightly red face, but he still followed Zhao Jun's side, as if he was afraid that Zhao Jun would suddenly disappear again.

"Boss, boss, it's really you, it's really you!" Cao Wuxian was still a little sluggish at this time, looking at Zhao Jun's shocked face, and finally ecstatic.

Zhao Jun was also very happy to see Cao Wushu again, but at the same time he felt guilty, he didn't treat him as a brother before, but he didn't hesitate to sacrifice himself to save him.

However, Zhao Jun was not good at expressing it, so he just smiled and said: "Hehe, no injury, why, you still think I'm dead." ”

After Cao Wuxian reacted, he was happy, and immediately changed his face, and said with extremely exaggerated joy: "Haha, how can that, who are you?" You're my boss, how can you easily say dead.

Just Lu Juan's stink farts bugs, boss, you can smoke them to death with a casual fart. ”

Zhao Jun stepped forward and patted him a few times, Cao Wuxian's shoulder, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident, real brothers, there is no need to say so much. Cao Wuxian also laughed and nodded vigorously.

This fashion kun stepped forward and said with a smile: "Little brother Zhao Jun, I always listen to them say that you are good, I also saw you that day, you are a friend, I have made up my mind, haha." ”

Zhao Jun looked at Shang Kun, a little reminded of the time when he pasted the New Year's pictures in his previous life, the door god on it was as tall as a black iron tower, his muscles were bulging, and his thick black face was matched with a steel needle beard, like a fierce fly.

"Brother Shang, I have also made a friend of yours, besides, you still have a life-saving grace for us, so I can only wait for me to report it later."

Shang Kun waved his hand indifferently, and said rudely: "Those who do it are friends, how can they care about this kindness or not."

Let me tell you, these seven miles and eight miles, I Shangkun is a well-known man, and he is dedicated to fighting those villains."

"I said Brother Kun, don't blow it. The boss is here, and it just so happens that we have a drink today. Cao Wuxian was beside him, and interrupted unceremoniously, he knew that if he didn't interrupt Shang Kun, he would probably have to wait an hour later.

Shang Kun didn't care either, so he smiled habitually: "You see I forgot, let's drink wine and eat meat tonight to celebrate the safe return of Zhao Jun's little brother." ”

The dishes in the evening were very rich, and the wine and meat were complete, because Zhao Ling was in a mood, but the meals he made were extremely delicious.

And one of the houses was also vacated by Shang Kun and given to Zhao Jun to live in.

Zhao Jun is very strange, Shang Kun doesn't seem to be rich, how can he eat so well. When I asked Cao Wuxian, I found out that Shang Kun actually used all his money to entertain Cao Wuxian and Zhao Ling, and there was never any money left at home. This deepened Zhao Jun's bold impression of Shang Kun, who was an unruly man.

In the end, Zhao Jun briefly told his story again, but Lu Pheasant's matter, and he didn't say it directly, but only slightly mentioned it.

After listening to Zhao Jun's narration, everyone was a little frightened, if it weren't for Zhao Jun's decisiveness and ruthlessness to himself, it would be impossible to escape from Cao Shen's encirclement, ruthless to others, this is nothing, but people who are also ruthless to themselves are awe-inspiring, obviously, Zhao Jun is this kind of person, exchanging injuries for injuries, and fighting with you.

Yes, fortunately, Zhao Jun's life should not have been extinguished, and he was saved by the Lu family, otherwise Zhao Jun would have ended up in the wilderness.

That night, Zhao Jun and Shang Kun drank a lot of wine, and Cao Wuxian was already drunk. And Shang Kun was also drunk and began to be confused, and Zhao Jun himself was almost the same. In the end, on the whole, Zhao Jun felt that Shang Kun was indeed a bold and heroic man, but he just loved to brag and was still a wine jar.

Of course, this is only a small section, and it does not affect Zhao Jun's good impression of Shang Kun.

Because Zhao Jun had to continue to recuperate from his injuries, Shang Kun left Zhao Jun to recuperate from his injuries here, and then made plans.

Zhao Jun considered that there was no good place to recuperate for the time being, so he agreed. However, Zhao Jun asked Cao Wuxian to take out the gold he brought and exchange it for some money to buy items, not wanting Shang Kun to break the bank.

Shang Kun was relatively rude about money and didn't care about it. Usually go to the ferry during the day, and come back after dark to drink with Zhao Juncao without injury, and he is also happy.

On this day, after Shang Kun left, Zhao Jun began to ask Cao Wuxian about the situation of going to Ren Huan.

Cao Wuxian said: "General Ren Huan, he did promise not to embarrass us. It's just that he told me that there is a relative in this county magistrate who is a county lieutenant in Xiang County and has a lot of power.

If we go from Xiangxian, we will definitely be embarrassed, and I have heard at the ferry in the past few days, Xiangxian has been heavily checked, so we might as well go in another direction. ”

Zhao Jun listened and frowned, he didn't expect that there would be this relationship.

But then, Zhao Jun looked at Cao Wuxian and said: "No injury, my plan is to go to the frontier to join the army, and mix in the army first, there are Huns attacking and harassing there, and the chance of meritorious service is relatively large."

At that time, if you have made military merits, you will be able to return to your hometown with a free body and fine clothes. Besides, a man's husband, who lives happily, can't hide all the time.

And we went to the northwest to join the army, and Xiangxian is the closest, so there is no need to detour, otherwise we have not gone far, I am afraid that we will only get lost, and we don't know what year Ma Yue is when we get to the frontier.

Of course, this is my personal opinion, if you are willing to go with me, we will go together and come back with some work.

If you don't want to go, I won't force it, of course, we're still good brothers. ”

After speaking, Zhao Jun smiled at Cao Wuxian, meaning to let him choose for himself.

Cao Wuxian was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Zhao Jun to have this set of plans, he just lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then made up his mind: "The boss is right, the man and the husband can't live in the nest, I'll go with you." ”

Zhao Jun nodded with satisfaction, patted Cao Wuxian's shoulder and said, "Good brother, if we don't die in the future, we will definitely build a career together, and it will not be in vain to live in the world." ”

"Hmm." Cao Wuxian nodded vigorously and took Zhao Jun's words to heart.

Subsequently, Cao Wuxian said again: "Since the investigation of Xiangxian County is so strict, if we break in, it is not a way." ”

Zhao Jun nodded and said, "Indeed." In this way, after letting Shang Kun send us across the river, we will not enter the county seat, and walk around the county and from the countryside.

Although it is more difficult to go farther, and you may have to go over mountains and mountains, it is closer than bypassing Xiangxian County, and it is relatively safe. ”

Cao Wuxian heard this, and could only nod, this is the best way, if he really encounters the officials of Xiangxian, he can only blame them for being unlucky.

Zhao Jun didn't want to take a detour, but the passage at this time was inconvenient, even if he took the nearest road to northern Xinjiang, I am afraid it would take about half a year, this is still the most ideal situation, and it is difficult to say if he encounters an accident.

The troubled times are coming after all, Zhao Jun's current situation is actually very bad, there is no foundation, and he broke with Liu Ji, he must buy time as soon as possible and gain the ability to protect himself.

In this way, in the troubled times, we can protect the people around us, and we can live happily and not be blown away by the waves of the troubled times.
