Chapter Twenty-Six: Receiving Servants

Xue Yan limped behind the carriage, he really couldn't see through the young man walking in front of him, he couldn't rob him by himself, a group of people were all captured by him, he thought it would be difficult to escape death, but he didn't think about it, this young master named Gao Huaiyuan didn't kill him in the end, and he didn't send him and other brothers to the government for reward.

But he made a request to him, saying that if he was willing to follow him as a slave for the rest of his life, he would let the other brothers live.

Xue Yan didn't think about it, so he agreed, anyway, he is a single person, it is the same everywhere, and since it is planted in the hands of this young master today, he also admits it!

The young master named Gao Huaiyuan took out a pen and paper on the spot, wrote a deed of sale and handed it to Xue Yan, Xue Yan was not ambiguous, immediately signed and drew the pledge, and vowed never to repent, Gao Huaiyuan officially accepted the new domestic servant, and let go of the other eight people, and also lost two pieces of money to them, so that they could treat their injuries.

Gao Huaiyuan took out the arrow on Xue Yan's leg, applied gold sore medicine, and let Xue Yan sit on the car, but he refused, insisting on limping and following the car, Xue Yan knew that he would probably really be tied to Gao Huaiyuan in the future.

However, Xue Yan can also see that this young master actually has a good heart, he should be a good person, and he is just with him!

Gao Huaiyuan looked back at Xue Yan who was struggling to move forward behind him from time to time, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, no matter what, he did a good thing today, neither violated his conscience, nor let the tiger return to the mountain, as for this Xue Yan, he believed in his intuition, this person is not a fierce man, but a very righteous man, although he didn't think about keeping him by his side, what use would it be in the future, but he didn't want to let go of this talent, so he came up with such an idea and forcibly accepted Xue Yan as a servant.

"Xue Yan! Come here! Gao Huaiyuan stopped, turned his head and shouted at Xue Yan.

Xue Yan agreed with a sullen head, dragged his injured leg and walked in front of Gao Huaiyuan, bowed his head sullenly and replied, "I don't know what the young master commands?" ”

"Since you are already my house slave, you should have the consciousness of being a house slave, you can't be a robber, if you can't even be a house slave, what use do I want you to do?" Gao Huaiyuan said with a thorn and sneered.

Xue Yan showed a trace of anger on his face, but in the end he didn't have a seizure, swallowed a mouthful of spit vigorously, raised his head and said to Gao Huaiyuan: "The young master has something to say, just give it an order, why bother to insult it?" ”

Gao Huaiyuan nodded: "Okay!" Now that you know your current identity, let me tell you first, the first thing to remember as a slave is to disobey the master's words! Your life is mine, and you will do whatever I want you to do!" ”

Xue Yan sighed in his heart, lowered his head and replied reluctantly: "Yes!" Master, I see! This life is yours, even if you let me die, I won't refuse to agree! ”

Gao Huaiyuan knew that the ancients paid the most attention to faithfulness, under normal circumstances, as long as they were not authentic villains, anyone who was considered a man would spit out a mouthful of nails, and Xue Yan was the kind of person who regarded faith and righteousness as more important than life, so he circled him with his words.

"Since you have memorized this one, then sit next to Li Tong for me now, if you drag this leg to Daye, I'm afraid it will be useless before you get there!" I don't want a cripple to be my servant! This is my first order for you! Gao Huaiyuan instructed Xue Yan.

Xue Yan paused for a moment, and dared to say so much, just to let him get in the car! The anger in his stomach just now disappeared immediately, and he was still a little moved in his heart, and after hesitating for a moment, he bowed down and replied, "Thank you, young master!" Obey the order! ”

Seeing Xue Yan limping to the other side of the cart, and sat on the wheels with his laborious legs, Li Tong moved his ass unhappily, he couldn't figure out why Gao Huaiyuan got a robber leader to be a person, pity them, let them get out, why do you want to take it with you!

But now he is in front of Gao Huaiyuan, he doesn't dare to let go of a fart easily, what Gao Huaiyuan has decided, he can only stare dryly, there is no way, in his eyes, now Gao Huaiyuan is the master who can never be provoked!

But after having this Xue Yan, he felt a lot of pressure and felt that his position had been strongly challenged, so he didn't want to see this Xue Yan, and after seeing Xue Yan sitting next to him, he snorted impatiently.

Xue Yan rolled his eyelids and looked at Li Tong, ignored him, leaned on the side of the carriage, closed his eyes and recuperated, Li Tong felt a cold air rise up his spine, and hurriedly whipped the black mule, and the cart moved forward again.

"Boss! I can't figure it out, why do you want to accept this person as a person? This guy used to be a thief, can you rest assured if you stay around? Huang Yan couldn't help but whisper to Gao Huaiyuan.

Gao Huaiyuan glanced at Xue Yan in the car from the corner of his eye, and replied in a low voice: "This person can be willing to die for his brothers, which shows that this person is not a person without faith, and I can see that what this person said to us is definitely not a lie, how can I hand him over to the government or kill him?"

And this Xue Yan's kung fu at hand is still good, ordinary people want to cut off such a hard ash rod with a knife, and they can't do it without considerable wrist strength! If you stay by my side, you can be a good nurse in the future, and of course you can't waste talent! And I can assure you that this man will never be treacherous! ”

Huang Yan nodded as if he didn't understand, and stopped talking, after this battle, Huang Yan knew that he couldn't even compare to Zhou Hao, and he was a little unconvinced in his heart, and after getting on the road, he secretly took his sandbag from the car and tied it to his leg, and he was feeling a little tired at this time.

Originally, they wanted to pass by Poyang Lake by water, but Xue Yan dispelled their thoughts with a word, saying that there are many water thieves in Poyang Lake now, and once they encounter these water thieves on the water, they will not be able to use their strength, and it is not safe to take the dry road by waterway, so Gao Huaiyuan immediately made a decision, changed to the south, bypassed Poyang Lake, and walked more without taking that risk.

He wasn't afraid that something would happen to him, but that he was worried about Liu Er and Li Tong and a few of them, once he ran into water thieves, if these people fell into the water, he would not have the ability to save them.

The group chatted while walking, Gao Huaiyuan would chat with Xue Yan from time to time for a while, at first Xue Yan was reluctant to say more, but after a long time, Xue Yan gradually dispelled the worries in his heart, feeling that although this Gao Huaiyuan is a child of an official family, he is not like the children of ordinary rich families, he is quite knowledgeable when he speaks, and from time to time he will reveal his worries about the current world, and he has no rich family at all, especially for the little maid named Liu'er, who is not regarded as a subordinate at all, and often cares about his injury, He even always changed the dressing for him by himself, and he was not dirty at all.

And when Gao Huaiyuan changed the medicine for him, it was very different from the way of the people here, after the bandage had to be cleaned every time, it was steamed in a steamer before it was used to bandage him, and the wound should also be carefully cleaned with cold boiled water before applying the medicine, in doing so, his explanation was that it would reduce the chance of the wound deteriorating, which aroused Xue Yan's great curiosity, and he felt that Gao Huaiyuan knew far less things than people of his age, and many things could tell some new truths.

For Gao Huaiyuan's kung fu, Xue Yan was also a little dissatisfied at first, when there was no one on the road, after asking Gao Huaiyuan, he took out the bow used by Gao Huaiyuan and opened it hard, but he found that he was a strong man, and he couldn't pull Gao Huaiyuan's hard bow, only to know that Gao Huaiyuan was really a person with extraordinary talents, and he couldn't help but be unconvinced.

Just such a group of people went all the way west, bypassing Poyang Lake, along the way there was Xue Yan, a person who was mixed up on the road, even if they met a few people who had bad intentions towards them, Xue Yan only needed to go over and say a few incisions, and these people would automatically retreat, and they didn't come to them for trouble, saving them a lot of things, so that even Li Tong, who didn't want to see Xue Yan the most, everyone no longer felt that Gao Huaiyuan was a bad thing to accept this Xue Yan.

Daye County is located about 200 miles southeast of Ezhou, after bypassing Poyang Lake, it also entered the north road of Jinghu Lake, and Ezhou is the important town of the Yangtze River defense line in the Southern Song Dynasty, to the west is the very famous Xiangyang in history, others do not know, Gao Huaiyuan knows that one of the biggest reasons for the demise of the Southern Song Dynasty is that Xiangyang was broken and Ezhou was lost, so that the Mongols broke through the Yangtze River defense line and drove straight into the hinterland of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Gao Huaiyuan walked all the way, all the way to the current situation and the memory of the situation in his mind to confirm, and learned a lot of things, no wonder some people say, reading thousands of books, it is better to travel thousands of miles, many things still have to be seen to believing, he is now more fortunate to leave Shaoxing.

This detour, their journey has been stretched for hundreds of miles, relying on two legs to walk, it is not bad to be able to walk a day in Baishili, so this section of the road let them arrive in Daye County for a few days to delay, fortunately, Gao Huaiyuan is not too anxious, so everyone walked all the way, walking unhurriedly, but it was also comfortable.

After another two days passed, they finally bypassed Poyang Lake and arrived in Yongxiu County on the west bank of Poyang Lake.

Listening to Xue Yan talk about Yue Fei's matter, Gao Huaiyuan couldn't help but feel a little excited, in fact, the Song Dynasty did not lack famous ministers and famous generals at all, but few people really made a difference, even Yue Fei, who was admired by all generations, finally ended up with a death in the Storm Pavilion, the reason for this is because of the emphasis on literature and light on military force in this era.
