In the early morning, the breeze blew gently, and the warm sunlight covered the entire Shangyong City.
Under the light of the mild sun, everything that has just experienced a blizzard exudes vitality. The trees are breathing happily, the birds are flying busily, and the residents of Shangyong City, who are "nesting winter", have stepped out of their homes one after another, enjoying the rare sunshine in winter outside their homes.
The sun gradually rose, and the gate of Shangyong City slowly opened.
A group of remnants of the defeated army rushed into Shangyong City. This group of people was not very numerous, only about forty or fifty people, but all of them had blue noses and swollen faces, and their heads were downcast, and the leader was a big man with an ugly face, who was burned and bruised all over his body. The Han was wearing a light green Tang Dynasty seven-rank official uniform, which was tattered and stained with blood. The originally majestic black yarn on his head was softly drooping on the big man's head, which looked a little funny. Like lost dogs, this group of people rushed through the streets of Shangyong City and headed for the county guard's mansion.
The peace of Shangyong City was broken, and everyone was talking.
"Datang's army is defeated? Where is this remnant? Could it be that somewhere has it been lost? ”
All kinds of speculation made the residents of Shangyong City, who had just lived a stable life, feel very uneasy.
Shangyong County Guard's Mansion, Zhang Liang, the county guard, sat on a Huanghuali high-backed chair, looking coldly at Zhu Heng, who was kneeling on the ground and crying, with a gloomy face.
Zhang Liang is about thirty years old, burly, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, with a murderous face and a fierce eye, sitting in the hall, like a bloodthirsty beast, killing gods again.
When he was fourteen or five years old, Zhang Liang followed Li Mi, the Duke of Wei in Wagang Mountain, killing people and setting fires to commit murder wantonly, often muttering to himself:
It is a sin to kill one,
Tu Wan is a male.
Slaughtered by the millions,
That is, the male of the male.
The male is the male, and the road is different.
Seeing through the name of benevolence and righteousness for thousands of years,
But it makes this life a hero.
Li Mi surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and Zhang Liang followed his old boss Li Ji to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. However, its murderous and greedy nature has never changed, and it is notorious throughout the world.
In the hall, Zhu Heng howled and cried: "Lord Zhang, Li Xuan, the head of the Yuxu Palace, used demon magic to bewitch the people and gather people to rebel. I heard the news and led the Hundred Beast Army to suppress it. As a result, they were outnumbered and failed miserably. Of the more than 1,000 beast troops, only forty or fifty people were left kneeling. Humble and incompetent, please ask Lord Zhang to avenge the tragic death of nearly a thousand brothers! ”
Hearing that nearly 1,000 officers and soldiers were killed, Zhang Liang not only was not angry, but asked with a little excitement: "Is there really a thief who bewitches the people and gathers a crowd to rebel?" Killed nearly a thousand officers and soldiers? ”
Zhu Heng replied with a snot in his nose: "Yes." Li Xuan rebelled and killed the officers and soldiers......"
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Liang roared angrily: "The thieves are bold, they dare to rebel and kill the officials and soldiers, do they still know that Wang Fa is ruthless?" I also know that if you kill officials and soldiers without permission, you are guilty of complicity and rebellion, and that is to raid your family and exterminate your family. You're incompetent, and you're still crying and crying, a bird? ”
Zhu Heng raised his head and looked at Zhang Liang. Although Zhang Liang was angry at the death of nearly a thousand officers and soldiers in his words, Zhu Heng, who was good at observing words and feelings, saw the joy in Zhang Liang's heart. Zhu Heng said secretly in his heart: "I have long heard rumors that Zhang Liang, the county guard of Shangyong, is the most greedy and murderous, and today I saw that this was really the case. He doesn't care if Li Xuan is the leader of the thieves as I said, and he doesn't care if there are people who are bewitched by Li Xuan and gather people to rebel, let alone the nearly 1,000 Tang Dynasty officials and soldiers who were killed and wounded, he only cares about whether he can be added to the rank after Li Xuan is killed. What a greedy mediocre county guard. But that's fine, as long as he can kill Li Xuan, I can get the Seven Treasures Ring of my dreams. ”
Zhang Liang looked at Zhu Heng's thrilling, creative old face, and felt very satisfied in his heart. Since he became the Shangyong County Guard, the territory has been unusually calm, so it is impossible for him to make some more achievements and rise one more liter. Now that it is good, there are thieves in Wudang Mountain who gathered people to rebel and kill officials and soldiers without permission. Whether it's true or not, it's better to treat them as if they were real. When I kill them, I should be able to rise another liter. Zhu Heng, although he is ugly and has a good heart, he actually gave me such a big credit, and he has to treat him well in the future.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Liang ordered: "The thieves are so bold that they dare to kill nearly 1,000 of my Tang Dynasty officers and soldiers. Come here, beat the drum and gather the generals, gather all the soldiers to wash Wudang Mountain with me, and slaughter the thieves. ”
In the Yuxu Palace of Wudang Mountain, Zhao Meng said to Li Xuan: "This morning, Uncle Liu, the horseman in the county government, went to the Yuxu Palace to make incense, and told me a news, Zhu Heng took the remnants of forty or fifty beast troops to Shangyong City to move rescue soldiers, it is said that Zhang Liang, the county guard of Shangyong, is the most greedy and murderous. If Zhu Heng borrowed reinforcements, the soldiers surrounded the Yuxu Palace. Xuanzi, what do you think we should do? ”
"Move the rescuers?" Li Xuan fell into deep thought.
His strength is still too weak, he is just a citizen, and Zhu Heng is an official. Since ancient times, the people have not fought with officials. What kind of fight with Zhu Heng is this, this is against the entire Tang Dynasty? Even if he is lucky enough to win one or two games, he will still be crushed into powder by the state machine of Datang in the end. It's so sad. I don't know what Zhu Heng thinks, for the sake of a mere Yuxu Palace to teach, as for being so desperate, don't you give up?
Zhang Liang? It won't be Zhang Liang, one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, right? That's a famous murderer, known as "human slaughter", and likes to kill prisoners, slaughter cities, and kill good people. Zhu Heng went to find Zhang Liang to move the rescuers, and according to Zhang Liang's temperament, he would definitely come. Now that Zhu Heng wants to play, he can't admit defeat if he wants to, so he can only play with him to the end. "Human slaughter" Zhang Liang is coming, what should I do? What to do?
Li Xuan walked back and forth, thinking about countermeasures. Zhang Liang is the county guard of Shangyong County, and he is the veritable highest official of Shangyong County. You can't beat it yourself, looking for reinforcements like Zhu Heng, is there an official in the entire Shangyong County with a higher official position than Zhang Liang? What to do? What to do? Suddenly, Li Xuan remembered his identity, and then remembered someone, and he smiled.
Move the rescuers? Zhu Heng, do you think that only you have a rescuer, and I don't have a rescuer? Let's ride a donkey and read the record book - we'll see whose rescuers are more powerful.
Yueyang, also known as Yuezhou, is located in the southeast of Shangyong County, and was originally the capital of Liang Wang Xiao Milling. The Tang Dynasty pacified the Xiao Milling regime and made Yueyang the base camp of the Southern Expeditionary Army, with as many as 200,000 permanent troops. The flags in the city cover the sun, blowing the horns and camping, like a fierce beast that chooses people and devours, looking at the entire south.
Yueyang, the General's Mansion, in an antique and elegantly decorated study. A general is reading a book under the lamp.
The general is thirty-four or five years old, with a burly figure, a tiger's back, a square face, and a dignified appearance. Danfeng eyes, a beautiful beard. Usually seems to be very easy-going, but when he looks at a person, his eyes are like a sharp sword, as if he can see everything about that person.
Adjutant General Li Feihu quietly walked into the study and whispered to the general: "Report to the general, there is a young man outside the mansion who claims to be your junior who has come to visit. ”
The general asked suspiciously, "My junior?" Who is it? ”
Li Feihu replied: "That young man said that his name was Zhao Meng, and his father was Zhao Jingzhong, the head of the Longyou Zhao family of the Guanlong nobleman and the general of Huaihua. He said his father and you were good friends. ”
Zhao Meng? Zhao Jingzhong's son? Could it be Zhao Jingzhong's youngest son? The one who was taken away by Qingyun Zhenren of Wudang Mountain Yuxu Palace since he was a child? Hasn't he been in the Yuxu Palace in Wudang Mountain? It's so late, what is he looking for me? Is there something I need help with? I have been friends with Zhao Jingzhong for many years, and I should help his son. After thinking for a while, the general said to the adjutant general: "Please Zhao Meng come in." ”
A moment later, Li Feihu walked into the general's study with Zhao Meng.
Zhao Meng stood still in front of the general's bookcase, and saluted the general in a proper manner: "Little nephew Zhao Meng pays a visit to Uncle Li." ”
The general looked at Zhao Meng, who was full of smoke and dust, and said with a smile: "Virtuous nephew, hurry up and be polite!" Come here in a hurry so late, what's the matter with the virtuous nephew? ”
Zhao Meng replied respectfully: "I came to ask Uncle Li for help on behalf of my senior brother. ”
"Your senior brother? Help? The general asked, confused.
"My senior brother Li Xuan is the son of Li Xiaoji, the king of Yong'an of the Tang Dynasty, and the general is the royal family of the Li clan of Longyou, and he is also the cousin of the general." Zhao Meng replied.
After listening to Zhao Meng's words, the general, who had always been unfazed and known as a general, stood up suddenly and said, "Who?" Li Xuan? The son of Lee Hyo-gi, King of Yong'an? He's alive? ”
The general's reaction surprised Zhao Meng.
The general realized that he had lost his temper, so he sat down again and said to Zhao Meng gently: "When I suddenly heard the news of the son of the deceased, I was excited for a while, and the virtuous nephew should not panic. Quickly inform me of the news of Li Xuanxian's nephew, and if he is in any danger, I will solve it immediately. ”
Zhao Meng was puzzled, so he said again: "My senior brother Li Xuan is the son of Li Xiaoji, the king of Yong'an of the Tang Dynasty. When I was six years old, I was taken to Wudang Mountain by my master Yuxu Palace. Half a month ago, the real person in charge of the sect passed away suddenly. When the feather is born, the real person passes on the position of head to my senior brother. Zhu Zhaocai, the eldest disciple of Yuxu Palace, coveted the position of the head of the sect, and his father Zhu Heng of Wudang County was embarrassed, and repeatedly framed my brother in charge. My teachers and brothers have skillfully responded and defused them. Now Zhu Heng borrowed troops from Shangyong City, and heard that Zhang Liang, the county guard of Shangyong, was the most greedy and murderous, and my senior brother had no choice but to ask the general for help, hoping that the general could help. ”
The general suddenly realized: "I see. When he was six years old, he was actually taken to Wudang Mountain by Qingyun Zhenren of Yuxu Palace. bullied Li Xuan, Wudang County ordered Zhu Heng and his son to be killed. Shangyong City? Zhang Liang? That killer? ”
Speaking of which, the general shouted badly. Then he ordered: "Beat the drum to gather the generals, gather the generals to go to Wudang Mountain with me, and stop Zhang Liang, that idiot."
