Chapter 52: Pingcheng Yang Duan
(Correct the mistake first.,Yesterday's update forgot to add the chapter name.,This chapter will be skipped directly and picked up in the order it should be.,Pay attention to some when you read it.。 Sorry for the pants! )
In the distance, a sparse procession of what appeared to be only about twenty people appeared nearly two hundred feet ahead.
This is Yang Duan's escort team? Hua Hagoliu thought in disbelief in his heart, and for a moment he even suspected that this team was ahead of a team of thousands of people behind, but it just happened to be seen by him.
However, judging from the solemn waiting appearance of Yang Jian and the generals of the army, this is indeed Yang Duan's team.
This team of more than 20 people was loosely formed and did not walk fast, and when Yang Jian was more than two hundred feet away and met three-quarters of the way forward, he stopped to look at the creaking carriage in the team and walked to the front and stopped.
"Elder En, Yang Jian has been waiting here for a long time!" When the carriage stopped, Yang Jian jumped off the horse and took a few steps forward.
"Haha! Ah Nan Kai is also lying, obviously just stopped here, do you still want to fool me, an old man in his seventies and eighties? The words were blaming, but there was no tone of reproach at all, and Hua Hate Liu could tell from his voice that although this person was not young, his spirit was not bad at all.
Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, the curtain on the carriage was lifted, and a short and fat figure squeezed out of the carriage, without the help of others at all, just listening to the sound of "ooth" and falling steadily to the ground from the carriage. After he stood firm, Hua Hate Liu hurriedly took a closer look at the real power figure behind the Yang family, who was called "En Lao" by Yang Wuzun, Yang Duan. Although he called himself seventy or eighty, he was much younger in appearance, his hair was not white after aging, but almost golden yellow, and his face was not shriveled and loose as Hua Hate Liu had seen, but a face full of red light. Coupled with the sound of his laughter, the neat white teeth that appeared, and the restrained look in his eyes when he glanced at Hua Hate Liu, Hua Hate Liu dared to conclude that if someone who didn't know his real age guessed, even if he guessed fifty years old, it would not be surprising.
The only thing that doesn't match is his navy blue embroidered robe.
Yang Jian hurriedly greeted Yang Duan at this time and said, "Why is Elder En's temper still like this, just wait a little and let the people help you." ”
"Haha! Can't wait! Yang Duan patted Yang Jian twice, and pointed to the team of three or five people in the east and one or two in the west behind him, and said: "This group of lazy people don't want to send me early, and they say that it's not bad to see the scenery on the road...... How can they understand my old man's mind! ”
"What did Elder En, say, even my father said that you can't guess what you think!" Yang Jian was completely like a granddaughter seeing her grandfather at this time, holding Yang Duan's hand obediently, chatting like a homely person.
"Yang Wu, that kid said you can't guess, so you won't guess?" When Yang Duan heard this, he pretended to be angry and said: "When you go back, you called Yang Wu here, I will wait for him here, and ask him why he didn't let my family guess my old man's mind to please me!" ”
What kind of fuss is this? Hua Hate Liu looked at this old man who was not afraid of the sky and would play with his temper, and a trace of doubt appeared in his heart again: Is this really the "Grace Old" who helped Yang Wu become the city lord?
"Elder En......" As soon as he heard Yang Duan's words, Yang Jian couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, this old man is notoriously stubborn, if he wants to make him unhappy, I'm afraid the clan discussion will not be as easy as he thought at the beginning.
"What is the old man who complains about the old, Yang Wu will go with him like that, and you will follow what coaxing!" As he spoke, Yang Duan glared at him and said to Yang Jian: "Call grandpa!" ”
This is not what Yang Duan wants to take advantage of, but it is the correct name. At that time, Yang Wu's father had stayed in Pingcheng for a period of time, and he had a good relationship with Yang Duan, the two were originally members of the same family, but they worshiped under Yang Duan's insistence and became brothers, and the relationship was even closer. After the slaughter of Yang Wu's family, Yang Duan also wanted to avenge his brother, but he had no choice but to find out who did it, so he had to endure it all the time - until Yang Wu returned from learning swordsmanship and finished revenge, Yang Duan didn't know who the murderer was.
Out of regret for his brother and compensation for Yang Wu, at the insistence of Yang Duan, who was gradually becoming stronger, the Yang clan elected Yang Wu as the head of the clan - and this is exactly what Yang Wu, who wanted to restore the vitality of the sect, wanted to do but was unable to do. Because of this, Yang Wu was very grateful to this uncle, so he gave up "uncle" and did not shout, and honored him with the title of "Elder En" to express his respect.
At this time, seeing that Yang Duan picked up this matter and spoke again, Yang Jian couldn't make the old man angry, so he had to shout with a smile: "Grandpa! ”
"Haha! It's so nice to listen to! Hearing Yang Jian's crisp shout, Yang Duan, who was still angry, laughed happily again in a blink of an eye, as if the previous unpleasantness had never happened.
"That grandpa, you see that Jian'er has prepared your favorite Luojiang bean chicken, rock sugar hoof flower, lamp shadow beef, and twenty years of Tibetan old flower carvings in the city, but I don't want to please you!" Yang Jian saw that the old man was happy, and thought to himself that at this time, almost the other branches had already arrived, so don't wait too long.
"Oh, good food is good food, and good wine is also good wine...... After listening to Yang Jian's words, Yang Duan was happy at first, and then with a sad look, it was clear that he was not afraid of the sky when he ate without sugar gourds. Before I went out, Lang Zhong told me to eat less meat and drink less alcohol, which is ......."
"That's okay too!" When Yang Jian heard this, his eyes rolled and he immediately smiled: "In addition to these meats and wine, Jian Er Ke also prepared pea yellow, tender bean curd, donkey rolling these small dishes, small desserts, in addition, my father said that grandpa likes to drink Baihao silver needles the most, and last time I specially instructed the people who went to Xinzhou to purchase some high-quality products, and I will take them to honor you after I go back, okay?" ”
"Good, good!" Yang Duan shouted "yes" three times in a row, and his face was even more smiling, "Ah Nan can talk a lot more than your father, and he is very good at pleasing my old man." Saying that, he waved behind him and said, "It's all in Xizhou City, and you can't delay it if you want to, besides, you also heard that Ah Nan has prepared a meal to invite my old man, move quickly, it's not good if the food is cold!" ”
After speaking, he pulled Yang Jian and took two steps forward and stopped in front of Hua Hate Liu.
Hua Hate Willow hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "The late flower Hate Willow greets the old man!" ”
"Wrong, wrong!" Hua hated Liu didn't expect that her first sentence was wrong, she was slightly stunned, and then she said, "I don't know what was wrong with my late life?" ”
"Say you're wrong, and you're going to be wrong!" Saying this, Yang Duan's voice involuntarily raised a little, and Yang Jian on the side was annoyed and worried, thinking that if you provoke him again, I will turn around and cut you!
"I'm not a gentleman, I'm just a big boss, and you don't have to call yourself a late or late born in front of me."
Yang Duan said that he was wrong, is this it? Hua Hate Liu's heart was secretly relieved, thinking that it seemed that his life could be saved.
"This is one ......of them," Yang Duan stretched out his thumb, which was thicker than ordinary people, and then he stretched out his index finger again, "Second, Ah Nan has changed his voice and called me grandpa, so you don't have to be restrained...... Follow the shouting grandpa to listen! ”
Grandpa? Hua Hates Liu doesn't understand, Yang Jian shouted that grandpa has something to do with him! He came on behalf of Sichou Zhai, not on behalf of Yang Wu......
As far as he was stunned, he didn't know that Yang Jian's murderous eyes had already slashed back and forth on him several times: Does this old man have a relationship with the ancestors of Hua Hate Liu? It's clear that you can't tell the situation and command randomly! Wouldn't it be ...... if you let this guy shout after me
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but have a trace of hot feeling on her face, and when she looked up, she happened to see Hua Hate Liu looking at herself, and glared back angrily at the moment: If you look at me again, I'll chop you!
"Okay, okay, it looks like I'm still embarrassed, let's talk about it later!" Yang Duan didn't squeak when he saw that Hua hated Liu, and he didn't wait for him to shout, turned around and waved his hand and said, "Come on, let's take the car together, although the car is broken, there is still a lot of space." ”
"This ...... En...... "Hua Hate Liu doesn't think it's a problem, and he doesn't think that the space can solve any problem, the most important thing is that Yang Jian was also pulled into the car - this is the problem."
As soon as he spit out the word "En", he felt Yang Jian's almost crazy murderous aura coming from his face, and Hua Hate Liu immediately changed his words: "Hmm...... Big...... Grandpa, I'm still not going up, ...... outside" After hesitating for a long time, he finally felt that there was no other suitable name to replace, so he had to shout along Yang Duan.
"You think it's more fun to be outside even if it's blowing the wind than talking to an old man like me in the car, don't you?" Yang Duan didn't stop because of this, but sat back in the carriage before asking.
This is an extremely clear signal to Yang Jian's ears, the old man's self-proclaimed self-proclaimed has changed from "old man" to "old man", this is the rhythm of anger in his heart! immediately smiled: "Mr. Hua just came over to talk to grandpa, don't worry about the rest." ”
Although Yang Jian was laughing, Hua Hate Liu heard another emotion in it: talk less, have more chances to live!
had no choice but to give up the horse and follow Yang Jian into the carriage.
There is a bench paved with fur on the left, right, and back sides of the carriage, Yang Duan sits on the innermost, Yang Jian sits on the left, and Hua Hate Liu sits on the right. When the three of them sat down, and without command, they felt that the carriage shook lightly and drove up.
"Don't you speak?" Yang Duan saw that the two of them were sitting on one side, one looking up at the roof of the carriage, as if he was predicting the direction of the sun, moon and stars through the holes that had been eaten by moths; One lowered his head and stared at the direction of the wood grain, as if he could comprehend the fortune of the world.
Hearing Yang Duan say this, the two of them were stunned, opened their mouths and wanted to say something, but they felt that there was nothing to say, so they closed their mouths again, and once again comprehended the direction of the stars and the fortune of the world.
"That's it, you young people, but you are not as happy as my old man!" Yang Duan said, waved his hand to stop Yang Jian, who was about to speak, and said, "Since you don't speak, then help me take a look at this injury!" ”
Injury? Yang Jian was stunned for a moment, and Hua Hate Liu, who looked up, also looked at Yang Duan with a calm face with a look of surprise.
"When I came out of Pingcheng, I brought a team of three hundred people, and I sat in the ......carriage that the best craftsmen had just taken," Yang Duan said as he gently untied the belt around his waist and removed the thick navy blue robe.
"Ahh Yang Jian exclaimed, looking at Yang Duan's appearance after taking off his embroidered robe, he exclaimed!
"Hahaha! Ah Nan has never seen such a new thing in our Pingcheng, so he was so frightened that he screamed, which really surprised my old man! Immediately following Yang Jian's exclamation, Yang Duan immediately laughed and said, and then as soon as Hua Hate Willow made her eyes, Hua Hate Liu, who was originally so shocked that she couldn't speak, immediately responded loudly: "Yes...... Yes, grandpa is really childlike! ”
After finishing speaking, hearing that there was no movement outside the carriage, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"This wound ......" It was the first time he had seen such a terrible wound, he had seen the severed palm and the head, but once the blood flowed after the hand was cut off, and the other time was when he looked down at the head and there was no blood at all-but the incisions on both were the same smooth.
At this time, the wound on Yang Duan's chest was far from being as smooth as the one he had seen before, except that he couldn't see what kind of weapon he was injured, blood scabs, new flesh, and broken bones were all gathered on both sides of this wound that straddled the left and right chests, which was especially hideous.
This also explains why there are only about 20 people who come, why they sit in this creaking and dilapidated carriage, why the group walks so slowly, and why the old man who is in good spirits on the surface wears such a dark robe that does not match. Thinking of these, Hua Hate Liu felt a little more respect and closeness to the old man in front of him.
"This is the most humiliating injury in my old man's life." Yang Duan saw that the two of them gradually calmed down, and said: "I don't know the appearance of the person who injured me, and I don't even know what weapon was used, how many people hurt me, and which side the other party belonged to...... It's like being hurt for some reason. ”
"I'll give you the medicine first!" Hua hated Liu remembered that he had brought some medicine with him, and immediately started to bandage the wound, but Yang Duan did not stop it.
"Doesn't that mean......" Yang Jian felt ashamed for a while, thinking that it was really hard for grandpa to stand outside with him to perform that scene.
"It was someone in the family who did it!" Yang Duan guessed what Yang Jian wanted to say, and said categorically, "It's not that you don't have enough ability to hurt me, but you just want to stop me from doing something-except for those ambitious guys in the clan, I can't think of anyone else." ”
Speaking of this, Yang Duan smiled slightly bitterly: "It seems that my old man is really old, and he is regarded as a stone blocking the way. ”
"Grandpa, you are in good health...... Yang Jian heard this, and his heart was also sour, and he opened his mouth to comfort.
"No, I can't help much...... Fortunately, your father has excellent ability, and there is no problem in holding down the field. Thinking of this, Yang Duan nodded reassuringly.
"Actually......" Yang Jian was still a little hesitant when he said this, but the old man would know it early or late, and he made up his mind at the moment: "Actually, my father is also injured......
"What!" Yang Duan's originally peaceful face was taken aback by these words, and he shouted in a low voice. The old man who leaned in front of him felt the most intuitive, and he didn't feel any momentum at all, and after this shock, he actually poured out a manic aura in the sky - this is also a master!
Slightly startled in his heart, Hua Hate Liu concluded with conviction.
"This matter must not be left alone!" Yang Duan's mania was only for a moment, and after calming down, his face had already turned cold, and he said softly.
Yang Jian understood that based on the old man's words, I was afraid that Xizhou City would inevitably blow a bloody storm in the next few days.
