Chapter 1 Road Encounters

Next Chapter

Just after Qingming, the road is still slightly wet, and the trees next to the road are already full of green. There are some unknown wildflowers in the jungle. In the distance, the sunset was covered by clouds, leaking a few blushes, and after a while the clouds dispersed, and the sky was full of glow, over the side of the mountains, which was very beautiful. However, no one wants to appreciate such a beautiful view. Because a battle is going on in this valley.

A group of forty or fifty court soldiers was fighting with a group of masked men in black. There were more than 200 men in black, and they surrounded the soldiers. The kung fu of these black-clothed men seems to be very mixed, some of them are fighting in the rivers and lakes, and some are like fighting in the army. A considerable number of them are not weak in kung fu. Four or five of them surrounded one person and focused on the most important places.

The soldiers' kung fu is not weak, and their moves are fierce. A thirteen or fourteen-year-old young general, holding a long spear in his hand, is like a dragon out of the water, flying up and down. But after all, there are many people on the other side. Seeing that there were not many people left on his side, the young man himself was injured, but there were still forty or fifty people left on the other side.

At this time, the soldier who had been killing the enemy back to back with him shouted at him: "Lord Shizi, you go quickly." We hold them back, and it's too late if we don't leave. ”

The boy shouted angrily: "No, I will not leave you behind, if you want to die, you will die together." ”

At this time, a man in black next to him slashed at the young man's arm. The young man was stunned, and the entourage next to him was even more anxious, he stabbed a man in black to death, and took advantage of the gap to stab the young man's horse buttocks with a gun, and the horse immediately ran away in pain. There was only a voice behind him: "Lord Shizi, you must live." ”

The young man couldn't control the sore horse, so he had to let it go. Tears instantly filled the young man's blood-stained face, and his heart ached. The fifty retinues he brought with him remained here forever. Before this, they were still talking and laughing together, and in the blink of an eye, heaven and man were separated forever.

The boy sat on his horse and held the reins of his horse tightly, and the sound of the hoofs of the chasing horse could be faintly heard behind him. The boy beat his horse like a fly, ran over a valley, and came to a bend. The young man slowly took the reins. The blood on his arm had coagulated on his sleeve, but the pain in his chest was getting stronger and stronger, and he remembered that he had also been shot in the chest. He dismounted and hugged the horse's head, with tears in his eyes, and reluctantly said to the horse: "From now on the two of us will be separated, and you can only get out of danger if you continue to lead them away along this road." ”

The horse seemed to understand his words, and seemed to look at him nostalgically, and snorted. The boy patted the horse's buttocks, and the horse ran down the road.

The boy turned into the grass on the side of the road and hid himself, and did not come out until the pursuers had passed, and then he turned into another road. It was the middle of the night, and he had nothing on him but a gun. He was tired and hungry, blood was still oozing from the wound, and he didn't know where he had gone. He felt his head dizzy for a while, and then he fell to the ground and knew nothing.

At this time, the moon was disappearing into the clouds, and a few owl calls could be heard in the distance, adding a little terror to the silent night.

In the early morning, the sun has risen from the other side of the mountain, the spring breeze blows, and the fragrance of flowers and plants slowly enters people's hearts. On the official road, several horse-drawn carriages slowed down as they galloped across a valley. There were dozens of guard-looking people next to the carriage, riding horses in front of them, left and right. Looking at this formation, it should be the family members of rich families.

The convoy came to a place with a large wooded area, stopped, and the guards dismounted. The person next to the first car lifted the curtain and replied, "Master, let's rest here first, and it's not too late to walk after breakfast." The scenery of this place is also good, there are a lot of wild flowers over there, and the young lady can enjoy and enjoy and relieve boredom. ”

"Alright, Laifu, then rest here. Master Guan in the car instructed.

"Yes, sir. Rifle replied briskly.

The person who was called the master in the car was surnamed Guan, named Yunhe, and was the eldest son of the mighty Houfu who had been guarding the border for ten years, and was currently the deputy marshal of the northern border. Because his father was seriously ill, the emperor allowed him to return to Beijing to serve the sick. In order to make it easier to walk, he asked his subordinates and family members to call him Master. Also accompanied by the concubine Wen and the eight-year-old daughter Guan Yaru.

It is now less than 200 miles away from the capital, and it will be possible to reach the capital before noon tomorrow. Because I was worried about my father's illness, I was in a hurry all the way, so I missed the accommodation last night. Guan Yunhe looked at his little daughter, whose little face had obviously lost a lot of weight, and was very distressed. When I arrive in the capital tomorrow, my daughter will have to learn the rules of the Houfu, and I don't know if my little daughter, who has lived in the border for a long time since she was born, can adapt to it. Thinking of this, Guan Yunhe couldn't help but sigh.

Guan Yunhe got out of the car with Wen. Guan Yaru and the two maids, Peach and Xinghong, also got out of the second car. As soon as she got out of the car, eight-year-old Guan Yaru closed her eyes, wrinkled her little nose and inhaled: "Well, it's so fresh air, mother, I seem to smell the fragrance of flowers." ”

Wen Shi looked at her daughter's intoxicated little appearance, and said with a smile: "Ru'er, the air here is not as dry as the border pass, and there are many trees around here, so the smell of the air is fresh." As for the flowers, there should be around them as well. ”

Guan Yunhe walked over, pinched his daughter's little nose, and said with a smile: "This little nose is very good, there is a wild flower over there, Ru'er go play." ”

Yaru took her father's arm, shook it with a smile, and shouted, "Daddy, daddy, let's go together." ”

As he spoke, he pulled Wen again: "Pinch the most beautiful flower for my mother." The little girl's eyes were shining.

Guan Yunhe couldn't help but pet her little head: "Okay, just Yiruer." Go along. ”

A family of three walked towards an unknown wildflower with their subordinates, Yaru ran in front with two maids, picked a pink flower and ran back for Wen to put on, and then looked left and right: "Hehe, my mother is so beautiful!"

Guan Hou Ye flicked her little head. Smiled and said: Okay! The flowers that Ru'er pinched are the most beautiful. ”

Wen smiled softly when he saw the interaction between the father and daughter. This is a quiet and docile woman, since she was rescued by Guan Yunhe in the hands of the Hu people, because she has nowhere to go, she has been accepted as a concubine by Guan Yunhe for nine years, and she has always been centered on her husband and daughter, and she is quite loved by Guan Yunhe.

Yaru stuck out her little tongue to her mother, and ran away happily, which made her run farther and farther. Suddenly, she stopped, sighed, and turned back to beckoning to her father: "Father, come quickly, there is an injured person here." "

Guan Yun and Laifu behind him and another small servant Laixi ran forward first, and saw a young man on the side of the road, who was thirteen or fourteen years old, with a cut on his forehead, and the blood had covered half of his face, and there was a blood stain on his left chest, and there was a gun in his hand, and the gun was also full of blood. The person is already in a coma.

Guan Yunhe instructed the two servants to carry the young man back and called Dr. Yu, who accompanied him, who first gave him hemostatic medicine, untied his clothes, and found that he had a long knife wound on his left chest.

Doctor Yu said to Guan Yunhe;" He should have bled too much and fatigue, which led to a coma, although the wound was long, but not very deep, and it would be cured for a month. As he spoke, he treated the wound on his chest again. Then he said, "He'll wake up in a moment." ”

Yaru looked at the young man curiously, there was a lot of blood on his face, and it was difficult to see his appearance. The little girl waved her little hand and told Xinghong's soaked towel to wipe her face. Apricot did so.

After such a toss, the boy woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a little girl with big almond eyes. At this time, Yaru was also looking at him, it turned out that this young man was so good-looking, his eyes were big, probably due to the torture of the pain, his face was a little pale, his mouth was pursed, and a pair of sword eyebrows were wrinkled. He vigilantly wanted to touch the gun, but when he turned his head to see Guan Yunhe, the young man showed a hint of surprise on his face, and wanted to get up: "Uncle Guan, it's you!"

"Hang'er?" Guan Houye was also taken aback when he saw his face clearly.

The young man smiled weakly: "Uncle Guan, it's me." Look at Yaru again: "This is the little sister who grew up at the border." ”

Yaru didn't wait for her father's introduction, so she replied with a smile: "Are you the brother Hang who served as a soldier in the military camp before he was ten years old, I often heard my father talk about you, saying that you are smart and good at martial arts!"

Ling Yuanhang also smiled and said to her: "Your name is Yaru, right, I also know you, I will call you Sister Aru in the future, okay?"

"Okay," Yaru nodded her little head and asked with concern, "Brother Hang, have you met a bad guy?

Guan Yunhe's eyes widened: "Yes, Yuanhang, what's the matter with you, what about your guards, why are you injured like this, who hurt you?"

Ling Yuanhang's eyes darkened, his eyes closed painfully, and he told in detail about his encounter with a group of black-clothed people.

Guan Yunhe was surprised when he heard it. This Ling Yuanhang is the only son of the current border coach Ling Junwang. This child lived in the border pass before he was ten years old, and he practiced good kung fu at a young age. Who was the one who poisoned him so far away from the border?

Guan Yunhe groaned and asked Ling Yuanhang: "Hang'er, can you see the kung fu path of those people." ”

"Those people seem to be very mixed kung fu, and some people seem to be soldiers. They are ruthless. Obviously it's coming for me. But I'm only thirteen years old this year, and I've been at the border all along, and I don't know anyone in the mainland. Ling Yuanhang tried his best to recall the scene at that time, and his eyes were a little dazed.

Guan Yunhe thought for a while and comforted him: "Hang'er, you go back with me to recuperate first, and you will pretend to be my guard." As for your whereabouts, don't let anyone know about them until you're sure you're not in danger. These people of mine, they know you. But they are people who have been with me for many years, and they can be trusted, and I will ask them to keep it a secret for you. ”

Before Guan Yun could answer, Yaru clapped his little hands: "Let Brother Yuanhang recuperate in our house, with Daddy here, you will be safe." My dad is amazing. ”

Guan Yunhe patted Yaru's little head and said, "My brother still has to recuperate, remember not to be naughty with my brother in the future." ”

Yaru spat out her little tongue at Ling Yuanhang.

Ling Yuanhang couldn't help but smile, and his mood also felt better. The girl who grew up in the border pass does not have as many rules as the girl from the family in the capital, just like Yaru, if she was in the capital, the rules would have been learned long ago. But Yaru was born and grew up at the border pass, and there has been no war in the past few years. She grew up freely, full of agility and innocence, and she was really cute. I thought again, can such a pure girl adapt to the capital? Without the free sky of the Northland, I am afraid it will be like a bird being put in a cage!
