In the south of Bazhou, in the mountains and forests ten miles away, the red lady carried a small cloth package on her back and climbed in the mountains and forests. Because of a big oolong, and was confessed by Ma Xiaoshan like that, she was ashamed, and she found that her immaturity had brought great trouble to the leaders of the Zhu army, and she simply ran away from home with a thin skin.

With her dexterity, she won't fall into the mountains and forests, pick some wild fruits, shoot some wild beasts, and don't worry about starvation. In addition, I have long been accustomed to sleeping in the open air, and it is not a problem to sleep at night, just find a treetop and shrink inside.

But she lacks the most necessary ability to trek through the mountains and forests, which is to find directions.

After leaving the Zhu army camp, she went around in the mountains and forests for more than ten days, or did not turn out in the Daba Mountain, this is really bitter Red Lady, this day, she was looking for a way in the mountains and forests, but heard bursts of shouting and killing in the distance, and quickly climbed to the top of the mountain cliff to see, it turned out that Zhu Jun and the officers and soldiers fought again, the banner of "Zhenxi General Zhu" flew on a hill, there were many officers and soldiers and Zhu soldiers fighting under the mountain, and the banner played by the officers and soldiers was the general army Fang Guoan, the general Luo Yuxin, The combat effectiveness of the officers and men of the two divisions was very good, and they exchanged fierce fire with the Zhu army......

In the recess of the mountain on the other side, the banner of Cao Cao and Luo Rucai's department also fluttered in the wind, and it was Zhang Zuokai, the Bazhou guard, who was fighting with him.

It didn't take long for Zhang Xianzhong, the eight kings of Xiying, to drill out of the ravines in the north, and the officers and soldiers added Zhao Guangyuan, He Renlong, and Li Guoqi, and the entire Daba Mountain Range became a war zone. Soldiers of the two armies, you retreat and I advance. The fight was not happy, the red lady was excited, and she just wanted to rush forward to help, but thinking of Ma Xiaotian's excited eyes, she was a little discouraged. In fact, at this time, Ma Xiaotian had already married a little mute and held a simple wedding in the army, if she went back, everyone would not say anything, but she didn't know.

Fortunately, with the efforts of the two monsters of Zhu Jun and Zhang Xianzhong, the officers and soldiers quickly fell behind, and the general Fang Guoan and the general Luo Yuxin were quickly defeated by the Zhu army. He Renlong and Li Guoqi were also defeated and retreated under Zhang Xianzhong's crazy attack. Zhu Jun rushed out of the ravine at great speed. went straight to Bazhou City, and it seemed that it was won.

When the red lady saw the great victory of the Zhu army, she no longer considered rushing up to help, and quietly touched the battlefield of Cao Cao and Luo Rucai's department. Shot and killed a few officers and soldiers who had fled. It can be regarded as doing its part for the overall situation. Then carrying her small package, I burrowed into the mountains and forests.

She now knew that her position was still between Guangyuan and Bazhou, since Zhu Jun pounced on Bazhou. With Zhu Baba Brother's hand, the district and state city will definitely be broken immediately, and her current position is still in the power of Zhu Bajun, Guangyuan is in the left and west, Bazhou is in the east, and it is definitely not possible to go north, because then she has to go back to Shaanxi, so she recognized the south...... It's a pity that the direction of the mountain is not accurate to walk, and it didn't take long for her to get lost again and go straight around in the ravine.

After a few days of wandering in the mountains, she actually found a small wooden house in the mountains, there was a small stream flowing behind the house, and there was an acre of mountain fields in front of the door, because it was early spring, the fields had not yet been planted, and only a woman was turning the ground with a hoe. The woman's body looked very weak, and her hoe-wielding movement looked very rusty, not like a farmer.

The red lady walked over and beckoned: "This sister, the little sister is lost in the mountains, please point in the direction." ”

The woman in the field turned around and showed a good-looking face, with a white complexion and an excellent temperament, and she really didn't look like a peasant woman. The red lady couldn't help but sigh...... I've never seen a peasant woman grow like this.

The woman obviously understood the words of the red lady and replied, "Where is the sister going?" As soon as she spoke, it was actually an authentic Shaanxi accent, and the red lady was even more embarrassed, if this woman spoke Sichuan dialect, or official dialect, it was not strange, but she opened her mouth to speak Shaanxi dialect, which is really bizarre.

The woman obviously also saw the strange expression of the red lady, and said shyly: "Sister, don't blame, my family fled from Xi'an, and they are not locals." ”

"Escaped from Xi'an?" The red lady was very curious, and forgot all the things she wanted to ask for directions: "Xi'an is a good place, why don't you stay in such a good place and run into this mountain lump?" ”

The woman smiled softly, did not speak, went back to the house, and helped a man out of the house, this man was wearing a scholar's robe, and looked quite learned, but he was obviously sick and could not walk, no wonder the family was a woman who came to farm, but he was a man at home.

He said to the red lady: "The girl is polite, the surname of the late birth is Du, this is clumsy, our husband and wife have a little last resort, so they fled from Xi'an to this place, the past is gone, but there is no need to say more...... "It turns out that this person is Du Shan, when he and Miss Ma San escaped from Xi'an, they fled south." Du Shan used tricks all the way, avoided many Zhu soldiers who came after him, and deceived the officers and soldiers guarding the pass, easily escaped into Sichuan, ran a simple small family in the mountains southeast of Guangyuan, and lived in seclusion here with Ma Xiaosanjie.

He was stabbed a few times by Ma Ershao, and did not get timely treatment, injured his blood, and his lower body was a little difficult to move, and now he is half disabled, but he has a deep relationship with his husband and wife, and Miss Ma San does not dislike his disability, and takes the initiative to take over the farm work to do, the life of the two is extremely hard, but they are also happy and healthy.

The red lady was originally a child of the rivers and lakes, not the kind of woman who cares, and after hearing his words, she didn't ask more, but said strangely: "Xi'an is really a good place, General Zhenxi manages Xi'an in an orderly manner, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and General Zhenxi is also a corporal of courtesy, and he is very polite to scholars, you are clearly a scholar, and it is a waste to come here." I see, if you don't have any reason to escape, you might as well go back to Xi'an, and you might as well eat under General Zhenxi. Shrink in the mountains like this, and farm by your wife...... It doesn't seem to be good. ”

Du Shan's face showed shame, but Miss Ma San immediately held his hand tightly, and the two looked at each other and smiled, which resolved Du Shan's embarrassment. Du Shan cheered up and smiled at the red lady and asked, "I heard that the girl praised Xi'an very well, do you think you have been there?" ”

The red lady nodded: "I also came out of Xi'an not long ago. ”

Du Shan asked, "Have you heard of a ...... Well...... Mi Xing, Ma Jia Mi Xing, how is it now? ”

If he asks about other rice shops, most of the red ladies don't know, but they ask about the Ma family rice shop, because of the existence of Ma Xinyu, the Ma family rice shop is really familiar to the red lady, it can be said that the Ma family rice shop is the most familiar one in the world. She smiled and said: "The Ma family rice store has now changed its name, and now it is called Zhenxi rice store, which is the official rice store of General Zhenxi. ”

Miss Ma San's expression darkened, Du Shan also frowned, both of them would be wrong, and when Zhu Ba had already taken away the Ma family's rice shop, Miss Ma San couldn't help but sigh and muttered: "Zhu Ba took away my Ma family's old house, took away the second sister-in-law, and now takes away the rice line, alas......" She said softly, and the red lady didn't hear it.

Du Shan asked: "Girl, then do you know the boss of the rice shop, well, it is a businessman named Ma Zhixiong, and his son Ma Xinyu, how is it now?" ”

The red lady felt strange in her heart, and couldn't help asking, "Why are you asking this?" Are you acquaintances of Ma Zhixiong and Ma Xinyu? ”

Du Shan smiled and said: "I don't know each other very well, I used to receive their favors back then, so I asked casually." ”

The red lady did not doubt him, and said with a smile: "They are doing well, Ma Zhixiong has now become the chief shopkeeper of the official grain store under General Zhenxi, and the whole of Shaanxi has to sell him three points of face." As for Ma Xinyu, he was an official under General Zhenxi, uh-huh...... I don't know what kind of official it is, anyway, I write and draw on paper every day. ”

"Huh?" Du Shan and Miss Ma San glanced at each other and were surprised. I thought that Zhu Ba killed people and took property, but they didn't expect that things didn't seem to be what they thought, and the spirits of both of them lifted up.

The red lady said: "Why don't you finish asking, by the way, I'm going to the south!" Then she remembered what she was doing here.

Du Shan and Miss Ma San were willing to let go of this source of news easily, the two couples glanced at each other, and Miss Ma San hurriedly said: "Red girl, it is difficult to travel in the mountains, if you don't dislike it, you can rest here tonight, and by the way, tell us about the things outside the mountain, but the two of us haven't seen anyone outside for many days." ”

The red lady is a child of the rivers and lakes, and she is not pretentious, clapping her hands and laughing: "Okay, I don't know why, as soon as I see my sister, I feel kind, and it's just right to live here." She didn't understand that Miss Ma San's appearance was somewhat similar to Ma Xinyu, although the red lady didn't feel it, but as long as a stranger's eyebrows and eyes and other subtleties were similar to the people she knew, it was easy to give people a sense of intimacy.

She came to Miss Ma San's side and talked about Shaanxi with a smile.

Du Shan and Miss Ma San listened attentively, especially about those acquaintances, and listened very attentively. The red lady spoke happily, and as soon as the gossip came, she took out everything and talked about it, and even told her what she heard from Zhang Yingxian, and all the things about the relationship between Zhang Yingxian and Zhu Ba were also told thoroughly.

After this story was told, Du Shan and Miss Ma San couldn't help but look at each other, and the two of them really didn't know that the story of "Zhu Ba snatched the second sister-in-law" developed like this...... It's already like this, why bother to escape from Xi'an in the first place, it's not bad to take root in Zhu Ba. With Du Shan's belly of literature and ink, it is not impossible to get out of the Zhu army, but it can save Miss Ma San from the pain of farming in the past few years. (To be continued.) )
