310, outside Sima's house
PS: Ask for recommendations and rewards.
Sima's mansion is not magnificent, covers an area of about four or five hundred square meters, there are stone bridges and pan ponds built in front of the house, two quite wide streets are connected into the ancient streets and alleys of Xiaojingli respectively, all the roads are paved with bluestone slabs, for some reason, the ground is criss-crossed and meandering, like a green dragon that turns over in the air.
There was no doorkeeper outside the house, it was deserted, except for an old man in cloth leaning against the door and dozing off, there was no one else.
Different from weekdays, the streets of Xiaojingli are suddenly deserted terribly, in the past, whenever they pass through Sima Mansion, the people living in Xiaojing will stop and look at Sima Mansion like that worship, and recently, Mo said that the worship is like looking back, not even a person, the street is empty, and the doors of every household around are closed, only Sima Mansion is a little quiet, and ordinary people have already closed the door and hid in the house to beg the Bodhisattva to tell their grandmother, praying that the black-armored cavalry has no evil intentions.
Fortunately, it was really for them to ask the Bodhisattva to ask for advice to grandma, Yuan Shang didn't mean to take filial piety at all, a filial piety, neither a dangerous place, nor a special significance, for Yuan Shang, it was like a chicken rib, as for why he stayed in Wen County, it was naturally for this famous Sima family.
Sima Bada, Yuan Shang has long heard of it, and besides, there is a hero in Badal that Yuan Shang can't ignore, compared to Cao Cao, Sima Yi is not inferior at all.
In order not to cause greater panic, Yuan Shang only took a dozen generals and a few personal soldiers into Xiaojingli, and most of the cavalry waited in place two or three kilometers away from Xiaojingli, and it was not very late. Yuan Shang also had no intention of stationing in place. Therefore, tens of thousands of cavalry were left to rest outside the filial piety. In a day, tens of thousands of tigers and wolves are not tired, but it is always good to have a chance to rest.
The white-haired old man leaning against the door wall was an old disciple of the Sima family, and no one knew his real name, and most of them were called by the old door.
The old man has been a doorman in Sima Mansion for longer than those old housekeepers in the mansion, and it is not an exaggeration to even call it three generations of elders, such a person. He is over eighty years old, but his body is still very tough, and he eats a lot of wine and meat, and his status in Sima Mansion is very special.
It seems that he is sleeping, but in fact, he has already been vigilant in his heart.
More than two dozen figures filled with a strong smell of blood slowly approached, his somewhat cloudy eyes narrowed quietly, he didn't care about sleepiness, and his seemingly old body suddenly tightened.
"They're all masters."
The pores of the old door exploded, like a cat that had encountered a great enemy, and only jumped up.
The leader is Yuan Shang.
Li Erniu, a simple farmer, was walking in front of Yuan Shang in an unusually awkward manner.
The inner thighs are hot. It made Li Erniu grin awkwardly.
This is a very second man, riding a donkey. The tall war horse as a donkey to ride, instantly came to retribution, was tossed enough by the war horse, the first time to ride on the war horse without pedaling, enjoyed a bumpy comfort, with the help of the frustrated, although the successful dismount, walking as if by a dozen fierce men to be hard, twisting and pinching, more than one meter eight, walking to completely keep up with the girls.
Knowing that Yuan Shang would not be unfavorable to him, this simple and simple man's mind became flexible, and he didn't say anything, but he greeted the whole family in his heart, but it was still not enjoyable enough, and he only felt that the back of his head was still aching.
"This is the old disciple of Sima Mansion, several generations of veterans, and even the contemporary lord of Sima Mansion has to be respectful when he meets him." Li Erniu glanced at the old door leaning against the door of the mansion and said to Yuan Shang in a low voice.
Hearing this, Yuan Shang glanced at the white-haired old man and nodded slightly.
"He's a master." Pang Tong, who had only arrived half an hour ago, said softly.
Yuan Shang's expression was indifferent, noncommittal, and walked up.
Ju Yi led Xu Huang and others to follow, although filial piety is not a dangerous situation, everyone does not dare to have a trace of slackness, and now the strength of the state has just improved, Yuan Shang's safety is the top priority, how dare Pang Tong Ju Yi and others have a trace of sloppiness.
Yuan Shang's footsteps stopped two steps away from Lao Mending, and said in a rather gentle tone: "I am waiting to come from Bingzhou, and I specially visited Mr. Bada, and I would like to ask the old man to help report it." ”
Mr. Bada in Yuan Shang's mouth is not one person, but includes eight people in Sima Mansion, and Mr. is called because Bada has abandoned the official and is idle at home, this title is the most appropriate, neither self-proclaimed junior, nor named who the person is, Yuan Shang believes that there is the word Merge State, and those people in Sima Mansion will definitely invite him into the house, which Yuan Shang is quite confident.
The eyes were cloudy and the cell door was like a sleepy one, and a glimmer of inspiration flashed in his mind, at the moment, it was the old man who rarely left Xiaojingli who had tasted the prestige of the tiger and wolf in Bingzhou, especially after Yuan Shang raided Youzhou, the power was even more awe-inspiring, and all kinds of gossip circulated.
Lao Mending opened his eyes, looked at Yuan Shang with a vague half-truth, and saw that he was dressed in brocade clothes, young age, and his speech was quite decent, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.
Although Lao Mending is just a janitor, because of his special identity, his vision is also not bad, and he can see at a glance that Pang Tong Juyi is extraordinary in recruiting Xu Huang and other generals.
"The old man has slow legs and feet, so I'm going to report to the lord of my family, the son and a few strong men, please wait." Lao Men touched his eyes and bowed down to whisper.
"No hurry"
Yuan Shang smiled like a spring breeze, giving people a feeling of being quite comfortable, but he heard him say: "Old man, let's go and report first, I won't be in a hurry, just go slowly." ”
"Xie Gongzi understands."
The old man said two or three times in a row, and it seemed that he pushed open the door with a little difficulty, and his thin body drilled slightly, and soon disappeared from the sight of Yuan Shang and the others.
Yuan Shang put his hands behind him, and stood up with Pang Tong Juyi and others, but Li Erniu looked around curiously, living in filial piety, but it was the first time he was so close to Sima Mansion, Sima Mansion was very prestigious in this small hundred households, with Li Erniu's generation of croppers, naturally he was not qualified to enter Sima Mansion, this time thanks to Yuan Shang's blessing, it was the first time to stand outside the door of Sima Mansion.
"Tsk"
Li Erniu kept looking, touching the door knocker with historical charm, touching the drum stone at the door, and counting the steps, but he was very happy.
"Hey, Li Erniu, stabilize the point, you are all a father, don't you lose face."
Frustrated Hu seems to have a grudge against Li Erniu eight lifetimes ago, and the person who didn't talk much met Li Erniu, and turned into a bitter stepmother.
Li Erniu seemed to be a little frightened, and when he saw that young face, he felt a faint pain in the back of his head.
It's like a cat that has been stepped on its tail, and it immediately shrinks back.
Li Erniu, who didn't know how to curse the frustrated Hu in his heart, hurriedly walked to Yuan Shang's side, and after a short time of getting along, this simple-minded farmer put away his fear of Yuan Shang, and only felt that this young general was much easier to get along with than others, especially compared with Frustrated Hu, it was simply a difference between heaven and earth.
Yuan Shang smiled and said nothing, he had a good impression of Li Erniu, everyone has their own self-survival characteristics, Li Erniu's natural and simple nature is really indifferent to people with complex minds.
Although he has not been with Li Erniu for a long time, Yuan Shang has always been very confident in his vision of seeing people, and he is almost fifty years old in his past and present lives, so he still has this confidence.
"Li Erniu, have you ever thought about being a soldier?" Ju Yi, who looked quite kind, patted Li Erniu's shoulder and asked.
Even Yuan Shang also looked at it, although Li Erniu was a little cowardly, but it didn't matter, he went to the battlefield to sharpen for a while, he saw a lot of dead people, and his heart was guaranteed to be harder than a stone.
"Being a soldier?" Li Erniu touched his head, a little confused, and said: "I haven't thought about it, when I was fifteen years old, my undead father said that he would not let the men of the Li family be soldiers, and it is strange to say, my head that was kicked by a donkey, I can't even remember a few big characters, but I remember this sentence very firmly, being a soldier will kill people, with my body and temperament, I will not be knocked down in two or three times, and now, I don't have that idea when I am a father." ”
"Oh."
Hearing this, Ju Yi nodded, but there was no trace of annoyance, at his age, many things can be seen very openly, if it is changed to a golden million here, Erniu answered him so unambitiously, and did not give him a slap to fly out, listening to Li Erniu's answer, Ju Yi nodded, and did not say anything more.
However, he was a little frustrated, and said: "A good man is a corpse on the battlefield, and what can he do to guard such a small place." ”
Li Erniu was frightened, and when he heard this, he hurriedly shrunk his neck, and then he was afraid of being slapped in the back of the head with a knife.
"Okay, Li Erniuzhi is not on the battlefield, it's also a good thing, the world is in chaos, there should always be someone to stay in the countryside, otherwise the war will be over, and the people will die, who will cultivate the land in this world?" Yuan Shang smiled.
"Hey, that's what the general said." Li Erniu looked at Yuan Shang and smiled innocently.
Pang Tong stood beside Yuan Shang, whispered a few words, and saw Yuan Shang nodded, so he pulled Li Erniu to the side and muttered a few words, with Pang Tong's ability to behave, it can naturally be seen that Yuan Shang has a good sense of Li Erniu, and he can't give him a bright future, so it's easy to send some wealth.
There was a deep squeak, and the main gate of Sima Mansion opened.
Yuan Shang's eyes moved slightly, and more than a dozen generals accompanying him looked at each other one after another, and just saw several men with extraordinary appearances walking out, and the leader was the owner of Sima Mansion, Sima Lang. (To be continued......)
