Cangyu Mountain is indeed not far from here, but when the gangsters arrived, they were tired like dead dogs, and they couldn't breathe.

Yueguang also recognizes people and doesn't like this gangster, Xiao Buyi also feels that letting him ride a horse is also an insult to the horse. Suo took a rope and tied him to Cangyu Mountain.

Stumbling along the way, the gangsters were miserable, Du Ruhui felt sorry for him, and wanted to intercede for him, but he was even more anxious about his wife who had not passed the door, and he didn't know what to do in the hands of the bandits, so he could only close his eyes, and his eyes were out of sight.

When Xiao Buyi approached Cangyu Mountain, he had already dismounted early, and said to the gangsters with a slight groan: "It's hard." ”

The gangster foamed at the mouth, his teeth leaked, and he laughed: "Yes, but Daxia, I'm really not from this cottage." ”

"How many people are there on the mountain?" Xiao Buyi asked.

"A few hundred." The thug grimaced.

When Du Ruhui heard this, his face turned a little green, and the bandits were not vegetarians, hundreds of people, one person and one punch were enough to bear, and Xiao Buyi was covered in iron and was going to be knocked flat by someone on the cottage. He has learned all his life the ability to strategize and stabilize the society, and he has no power to tie the chicken with both hands, and when he was an alternate petty official, he felt that he could not give full play to the talents in his chest, so he resigned and lived at home. Most of the people I saw were literati and writers, this time I was robbed by bandits, just like Xiucai met a soldier, I couldn't explain the reason, what strategy was useless, I saw Xiao Buyi groaning, thinking that he was embarrassed, but he couldn't think of a way, and he was worried in his heart.

Xiao Buyi and Du Ruhui thought very differently, secretly thinking that this time they were going to save people, not kill people.

Sometimes, it's harder to save people than to kill them.

If he and Du Ruhui are better than governing the country, of course he is far behind, but he has been fighting for a long time, and he has been practicing for a long time, and finally said that the sword light and sword shadow, and he didn't pay too much attention to these hundreds of people, after all, hundreds of people can't be tied together to fight with him, and after killing a few leaders, the remaining bandits were frightened and naturally dispersed. Only a few hundred people gathered is a small scene, and the robbers' abilities seem to be limited, but the purpose at the moment is to save Du Ruhui's wife, who has not passed through the door, and it is better not to startle the snake at the moment.

"I'm going to trouble you with one more thing." Xiao Buyi looked the gangsters up and down.

The gangster was frightened, 'Goodong' knelt down, and cried: "This master, I don't lie to you, I'm really not from this cottage, if you want me to go up the mountain, it will cost my own life." ”

Xiao Buyi reached into his arms and took out a silver bean.

The thug's eyes straightened, "Master, you are ......"

"I'll borrow your clothes for use, it's a reward."

The gangster smiled bitterly, "Master, it's freezing this day...... I have a life to make money, and I have a life to spend it. Seeing Xiao Buyi's eyes glaring, a cold light flashed, and the gangster hurriedly said, "Thank you so much." ”

"You're welcome." Xiao Buyi handed the silver bean to him, slapped his head with a palm, and the gangster fell to the ground softly.

Du Ruhui was taken aback, "He's dead?" ”

"Just passed out." Xiao Buyi quickly took off his coat, put it on his body, and ordered: "You'd better tie up this bastard, and then find a place to hide alone, I'll go to the mountains and come back soon." By the way, is there any token that you can know your unmarried lady? I'm just afraid she won't come with me. ”

Du Ruhui stretched out his hand and touched it for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "Everything I have been searched by bandits, where is there any token?" ”

Xiao Buyi glanced at him, reached out and tore a strip from his clothes, and smiled: "She always remembers the clothes you wear, right?" He stretched out his palm and patted the moonlight's buttocks, keeping it farther away and going around alone, so as not to let Du Ruhui be noticed because of the moonlight.

When Moonlight was alone in the wild, he never worried, just ask if he can't catch Moonlight with the skills of a bearded guest, where do other bandits have this ability?

After arranging everything, Xiao Buyi stopped talking nonsense, and ran towards Cangyu Mountain, Du Ruhui looked at his back like lightning, shocked and admired, and secretly thought that what this reckless chivalrous man did was far from what he could imagine. This person is clean and thoughtful, I don't know who it is? When he thought of this, Du Ruhui remembered that he was so busy that he forgot to ask Xiao Buyi's name!

**

Xiao Buyi soon arrived at the foot of Cangyu Mountain, looked up, and saw that there were already minions haunting.

He is still quite familiar with this kind of arrangement, because he used to do this business, and this cottage is similar to his cottage in Mayi.

Covered by trees and boulders, Xiao Buyi was as flexible as an ape, and soon approached the interior of the cottage.

It can be seen that there are many houses on the mountain, and it is difficult to find them one by one, so I can't help frowning slightly.

As he was groaning, a voice shouted, "What are you doing, sneaky? ”

Xiao Buyi looked up and saw a head behind a big rock on the mountainside, it turned out that there was a person hidden, and the location was extremely hidden, and he didn't even notice it.

Xiao Buyi slowly straightened up, looked around, and saw that there was no one near him, and said with a smile: "This big brother, I'm looking for Brother Hu." ”

He was dressed in greasy clothes, and when the man saw it, he only thought he was a gangster, and frowned: "Who are you?" How come I've never seen one? ”

Xiao Buyi slowly approached, "I have been in Tongguan before, and the trader in charge of it is sick, but there is an emergency...... The brothers on the mountain ignored me and only let me come up to find Brother Hu by myself......"

"We also have a deal in Tongguan, why have I never heard of it?" The man frowned, and before he could say anything, Xiao Buyi had already jumped up like a goshawk, and the man was about to scream, but he had already been grabbed by Xiao Buyi's neck, and he was forced to stealth behind the stone.

The man's face was red, and he struggled desperately, Xiao Buyi said in his ear: "If you dare to shout, I will strangle you." ”

The man's eyes showed horror, 'woo' sound, Xiao Buyi slowly let go of his hand, but still touched his neck, and asked coldly, "I asked you something, you just said, dare to call the police and your life is not guaranteed, if what you say is not right, after I come back, you will still die." ”

The man was frightened and said, "What does the uncle want to ask me?" ”

"Where's the woman who stole it?"

The man pointed to the right side of the mountain, "In a few houses there." ”

Xiao Buyi slapped the bandit again, stunned the bandits, and walked to the right side of the mountain, and before he went far, he saw two women who looked like old monsters in makeup walking towards a room with red clothes.

There were two robbers standing in front of the room, ask a little, let the woman in, Xiao Buyi felt a little calmer, and secretly wanted to see this posture, Hu Lu thief still wants to marry someone else, and it is the right time to come.

But after a while, a noisy sound came from the room, and the two women came out with their heads scattered, embarrassed. The two robbers laughed, and the woman turned around and scolded, "You scratch your hooves, toast and don't eat and drink, hurry up and put on your wedding clothes and worship in the church at the auspicious time, nothing happens, if you continue like this, you will suffer!" I'm going to talk to the owner of the village...... See if you can still go to heaven again? ”

The two women took turns scolding, filthy, scolded for a while, and then turned around and left angrily.

The two robbers guarding the door laughed, and one of them said: "The owner of the village is also asking for hardships, this kind of woman is on the other, what else do you want to do to get married?" ”

Another person smiled and said: "This woman's appearance is bright, everyone who sees it is itchy, if she marries and becomes a wife, even if she lives a few years less, it is worth it." ”

The previous bandit said, "You are wrong, woman, if you become your wife...... What are you doing? ”

Another person said: "Of course, you can do whatever you want......" Seeing his companion's eyes look straight over, he realized that the last sentence was to ask the person.

The person who came was dressed in a greasy leather jacket, it was Xiao Buyi, and when he saw the two bandits holding the handle of the knife, he was full of vigilance, and said with a smile: "The owner of the village asked me to kill you." ”

"What did you say?" The two lost their voices.

Xiao Buyi rushed over, the scabbard was pointed, and he had already knocked down one person, punched out, and knocked the other person unconscious.

The person who was poked in the stomach by the scabbard was in pain, and he kept rolling before he was about to scream hoarsely, Xiao Buyi kicked the man in the head, and the man only felt that the bells and drums were ringing in unison, and he fainted immediately.

Xiao Buyi also ignored the two, heard a 'pop' sound in the room, pushed the door in, and saw a woman standing in the room, looking at herself in amazement, she was holding a piece of a teacup in one hand, and her right wrist was bloody.

The woman is quite dignified and has delicate eyebrows, but at this time there is a sad sadness.

Xiao Buyi frowned, took a step forward, and the woman shouted bitterly: "You don't want to come over!" ”

"Du Ruhui asked me to save you!" Xiao Buyi stretched out his hand to show the strip of cloth, and when the woman saw it, she was surprised and said, "Really? Strongman, how is Ruyan now? ”

She refused to die for a long time, but she was still thinking about Du Ruhui, and always fantasized about seeing Du Ruhui again, only to see that she was forced to marry, and knew that there was no hope, so she wanted to cut her veins and commit suicide, but she didn't expect Xiao Buyi to fall from the sky, and the joy in her heart was self-evident.

Xiao Buyi reached out and tore off a piece of cloth from the bed curtain, bandaged the woman to stop the bleeding, and said in a deep voice: "He's fine, I'll take you down the mountain." ”

Suddenly hearing footsteps in the distance, Xiao Buyi frowned slightly, "You go and hide under the bed, I'll kill the person first." ”

"Engong, be careful, they are all vicious." The woman was obedient, and although she was worried, she quickly ran to the bed and got in.

Xiao Buyi gently stretched out his hand and pushed open the window, tiptoeing, and was already on the beam.

Looking through the window, I saw an old woman like a monster leading a man, followed by a few minions. The old woman nagged, "The owner of the village, no matter how I persuade her, I don't listen, it's none of my business if she doesn't wear a wedding dress." ”

The owner of the village must be a Hulu thief, who is very stout and strong, with a gangster body, and his face is full of yin owl energy. Hearing the old woman's complaints, she said coldly: "You can't do these little things well, what do I want you to do?" ”

Suddenly found the two thieves in front of the door, Hu Lu thief's face changed slightly, Huo Ran rushed over, pushed open the door and looked over, and found that the window was wide open, and the room was empty, and he couldn't help but be angry: "Where are the people? ”

The few bandits who followed behind him also looked at each other, and the Hulu thief said loudly: "Idiot, don't wake up the two of them yet!" Notify the person to chase it. ”

Some robbers went to find cold water to wake up the two who fainted, and some blew bamboo whistles, and the chickens and dogs jumped in Cangyu Mountain in an instant.

The Hulu thief stood in the room, furious, and suddenly his eyes fell on the blood on the ground.

The woman cut her wrist and injured her hand, blood flowed on the ground, and her shoes were naturally stained, so she hurriedly ran to the bedside, bringing out a trail of bloody footprints, which disappeared until she reached the bed.

Seeing that although the bed curtain was hanging down, there was a blood mark on it, Hu Lu Thief's heart moved, and he said with a cruel smile on his face: "Little lady, it turned out that she was hiding under the bed, and this strategy to divert the tiger from the mountain is not bad." Come out, my little lady. ”

He slowly pulled out a single knife and walked slowly to the side of the bed, concentrating on his arm. Although his heart is surging, he has not forgotten the two bandits who are upside down, and knows that a woman will never be able to defeat those two bandits, so there is someone else?

Approaching the bed, Huo Ran, the Hu Lu thief, took a step forward, stretched out his hand to lift the bed curtain, and saw that the woman was really hiding under the bed, trembling, but it was only one person. Hu Lu was slightly stunned, and suddenly felt a strong wind behind him, and in the midst of a loud shout, he returned the knife and slashed back.

A person swooped down in mid-air, the cold light in his hand flickered, and he was slashing towards the Hulu thief!

The blades intersected, and only a 'bang' sound was heard, and the single knife of the Hulu thief was broken. He was so shocked that before he could turn his thoughts, the long knife slashed his single knife and slashed through his neck. A wave of red light rushed into his eyes, and the blood in front of him was red, and Hu Lu Thief felt that he was flying higher and higher, but he saw a headless corpse slowly falling to the ground.

Only then did he realize that he had been beheaded! Hulu thief is dead!

There is a blind spot in people's vision, that is, few people like to look up, Hu Lu thief uses all his body and mind under the bed, where do he think that there is still a person hidden on the beam.

Xiao Buyi slashed out, cut off his head, stretched out his hand to pull the sheets, and shook out to grab Hu Lu's head. Only then did the monster-like old woman let out an exclamation and passed out.

She only saw a flash of the sword, and someone descended from the sky, cutting off the head of the invincible village owner with a single knife, blood crashing, and the horrified heart and soul were scattered.

A few bandits outside the door rushed in and shouted: "The owner of the village ......"

Xiao Buyi slashed a person with a single swing of his knife, and said sharply: "The Hu Lu thief is dead, and I don't want to dodge away like him." ”

On the one hand, he didn't want to kill all the bandits, and on the other hand, he didn't want to delay too much time.

The bandits were amazed when they saw his sword skills, and in an instant, another person was killed, and they withdrew without repeatedly, and one of them stepped on the threshold with one foot, and crawled outward with a rolling belt. But everyone retreated to the door, but they did not disperse, but just gathered outside the house, whistled again and again, and in an instant, dozens of people rushed in this direction.

Xiao Buyi sneered in his heart, but he was not afraid, slowly turned back to the bed, and said in a deep voice: "Come out, go out with me." ”

The woman came out a little embarrassed, and when she saw that there was blood in the house, and there were so many people gathered outside the door, she was trembling and afraid, and suddenly gritted her teeth, "Strong man, you give me a knife." ”

Xiao Buyi was stunned, "Why?" ”

Tears flowed from the woman's eyes, "The strong man came to save the little woman, and he felt very virtuous." But there are many thieves and thieves, and the strong man will inevitably be burdensome with me, and I can't rush out, maybe it will affect the strong man. I also asked the strong man to tell Ru Yan if he could break out of the encirclement, saying that Keqing could not be married to him in this life, and only waited for the next life. ”

After she finished speaking, her eyes closed, but she heard Xiao Buyi say in a deep voice: "Let me tell you, in this world, only those who are not afraid of death can live, and those who seek death have always been able to get their wishes." If you want to see Du Ruhui, you will straighten your waist and go out, and it will not be a burden for me if you don't let me carry it. How can this group of thieves on the mountain be put in my eyes? ”

When the woman saw him staring in all directions, her expression was indescribably proud, and she thought to herself that this person was calm and calm, maybe she could really save herself.

Although she is a weak woman, her surname is Ge Qiang, otherwise she would not want to cut her wrists and commit suicide, plus she was really reluctant to give up Du Ruhui in her heart, and nodded: "Thank you for waking up, the little girl will go out with you." Just ask Engong to do his best to kill the thief, and don't think of the little girl. ”

She walked out first, her steps were firm, Xiao Buyi said in her heart that the woman Du Ruhui was looking for was really good, she knew the righteousness, and there were many bandits, which inspired his arrogance, and she laughed loudly: "Don't worry, whoever moves you for half a point, I will cut off someone's head." ”

He went out of the house, and with a flash of the knife, he kicked the door frame hard, and the whole house fell to the side, and in the midst of the bang, the bandit shouted, and felt that the man in front of him was infinite, and the monster seemed to take a few steps back.

Xiao Buyi had already walked in front of the woman, holding a knife and smiling: "Are you sending off guests, are you all gathered here?" Your boss is dead, who are you working for? ”

He stretched out his hand and shook it, the sheets fell apart, and the head of the thief fell to the ground with a 'bang', and rolled to the feet of the bandits.

Some bandits retreated, some bandits had blood-red eyes, and the head of the body was fierce, and said angrily: "You killed my brother, I will cut you with a thousand knives!" ”

The surrounding bandits all shouted, "The second master, kill him to avenge the owner of the village." ”

Although everyone was shouting, they were still a little afraid, after all, Hu Lu thief, as the owner of the village, was definitely not bad in kung fu, and he was beheaded by the person in front of him, and his martial arts were not bad.

Xiao Buyi smiled and said, "Then it depends on whether you have the ability to do this." ”

The second master waved his sword, "Whoever killed these two people, we elected him as the owner of the village." ”

As soon as his voice fell, two people rushed to the left and the right. The second master was in high spirits, and he also rushed over, and in an instant, the bandits were ready to move, and they spread out in a half circle, and several people were already aiming at the woman behind Xiao Buyi.

Xiao Buyi stood with a horizontal knife, just looking coldly, and when the two of them rushed closer, he suddenly took out the knife.

The knife light was just a flash, the two bandits reached out and covered their throats, turned over and fell backwards, the second master saw the blood in front of him, and then the knife light flashed in front of him, and secretly screamed that it was not good, and hurriedly crossed the knife, but the person kept retreating.

With a 'bang', the single knife was cut off, and blood burst out of the second master's chest. Under the cold, the second master rolled on the leprosy donkey, only to turn over, and without waiting to get up, he felt a cold chest, and a thing pierced out of the chest, and looked at the blade in horror, and the legs of the second master were weak, and he fell to the ground softly.

Xiao Buyi stepped forward, saw that the second master was fast, and quickly threw a single knife and the second master was defeated, and two bandits saw that it was cheap, and waved the knife to cut the woman, but the woman did not shout, and hurriedly dodged. Xiao Buyi listened to all directions, took two steps back, and his hands reached out, already grabbing the chests of the two.

The two hurriedly waved their knives, Xiao Buyi shouted, his hands were forced, and there was a loud 'bang', and the two bandits collided together and had already fainted.

Xiao Buyi took the single knife of the two, and the two knives slashed each other, and the loud sound of 'dang' was full of sparks.

"Come here if you want to die!"

The bandits stopped, there was already fear in their eyes, Xiao Buyi stepped forward, waved his knife, and the bandits shouted, scattered and fled for their lives, and no longer cared about interception.

Xiao Bu's body is like a ghost, and killing people with a knife is like killing a chicken, which is really something they have never seen before. What's more, the two masters with the highest martial arts have been killed, what are they desperate for?

The bandits fled, Xiao Buyi snorted coldly, abandoned the double knife, retrieved the knife he used from the second master, heard the neighing of horses nearby, and was not in a hurry to go down the mountain, but found the stable.

There are still a few horses in the stables, which can be regarded as a luxury item in the cottage.

Although the horse is good, it is also average in Xiao Buyi's eyes, Xiao Buyi chose two, turned his head and asked the woman, "Do you know how to ride a horse?" ”

The woman nodded, Xiao Buyi smiled and said, "Then let's go, Du Ruhui is waiting for us!" ”

When the woman saw Xiao Buyi entering and leaving the cottage where the bandits gathered, as if she was in a no-man's land, she couldn't help admiring and rejoicing, and followed Xiao Buyi to ride down the mountain.

The bandits were all far away and did not dare to come forward. Xiao Buyi and the two went down the mountain gracefully, and the woman was like a dream. When they arrived at the bottom of the mountain, Du Ruhan greeted her early, and the woman jumped off the horse, and the two hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Xiao Buyi looked at the two of them, and finally a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, secretly thinking that although there was a delay, it was worth it.

He didn't urge the two, but Du Ruhui woke up early, turned around, and was about to kneel, "Engong saved the lives of my two surnames, great kindness, and will never be forgotten." This is my wife Lin Keqing who has not passed through the door, Keqing, thank you for saving your life. ”

Lin Keqing was also polite, Xiao Buyi stretched out his hand to support Du Ruhui, and said with a smile: "No need to be polite, I still have something to ......."

"I don't know Engonggao's name yet." The woman asked.

Xiao Buyi smiled: "My name is Xiao Buyi. ”

Du Ruhui's eyes suddenly widened, and he lost his voice: "You are the right Xiaowei general of the Great Sui, General Xiao Buyi Xiao?" ”

He really couldn't believe that this person was so young, but he couldn't help but believe it, if it weren't for such a person, how could he fight all over the banks of the Yellow River? But at the moment, this general is not like a general, if you say that a person in the grass is like a ten.

Xiao Buyi shook his head, "I used to be a general, but now I'm not." ”

Hearing him admit it, Du Ruhui and the others were full of excitement, and Lin Keqing's eyes flashed with admiration, "It turned out to be General Xiao, no wonder he has such a skill, chivalrous and courageous!" General Xiao's praise in the Central Plains seems to be no fluke, even if he helps people we don't know, it really makes the little woman admire. If you say that after marrying me, you will go to Xiangyang City to find the general. Since General Xiao re-issued the Juntian Decree in Xiangyang City, the people praised and the scholars praised it, saying that this move was in line with the will of the people, and it was said that in the troubled times, there was such a talented and far-sighted person, and the general should be the lord of the troubled times......"

Xiao Buyi smiled, noncommittal.

Du Ruhui said on the side: "Keqing, in my scholarly opinion, you don't have to talk to General Xiao." By the way, General, I heard that you have been ...... Xiangyang."

"I often stay in Baling now." Xiao Buyi smiled.

Du Ruhui suddenly said, "It turns out that General Xiao took Baling again, these two places are a strangle of north and south, and a choke of the Yangtze River, and General Xiao is in charge, which is really a blessing for the people of the two counties." ”

He originally wanted to say that the geographical location of these two places was extremely concise, and Xiao Buyi could easily get it, but he didn't know Xiao Buyi well, so he stopped talking.

Xiao Buyi said again: "But I have something to go to the north, and now I can't send the two of you." ”

Du Ruhui was a little disappointed, "I thought I could follow General Xiao, but since General Xiao has something, it is not good to delay the general's ......"

Lin Keqing said: "If you regret it, if General Xiao is willing to let us follow, we can go to Xiangyang or Baling to wait first." Du Ruhui's eyes flashed, and in an instant, there were some gains and losses, "I'm only afraid of General Xiao's skills, and I don't look down on a useless scholar like me." ”

Xiao Buyi laughed, "Mr. Du's words are different, Xiao did it, but saving one or two people, what Mr. learned is the policy of governing the country, I have heard Mr. Wei talk about Mr. Daqi's talent, I have always hated to see it, after making a move, I wanted to invite you to Xiangyang, but I was afraid of delaying your marriage, so I didn't dare to speak." If Keqing blames me for this, I can't afford it. Since Mr. is interested, please get together in Xiangyang. ”

Du Ruhui was stunned at first, then overjoyed, and said with Lin Keqing: "Thank you, General Xiao!" ”

(To be continued)
