Bu Xiuxing walked straight forward. Bypassing the city of Wancheng, not to mention, but directly to the bank of the Han River, "the heart flows up along the Han River, Chen Yao and Cai Yan both grew up in the north, and what they have seen since childhood is the Yellow River." Although the water of the Yellow River contains sediment at this time, it is not as strong as the modern era before Zhang Xiu's crossing, but since the Western Han Dynasty, there has been the name of the Yellow River, and the sediment contained in the river will naturally not be too little.

Although the Han River is not as good as the Yellow River, as an important tributary of the Yangtze River, the Han River also brought a sense of shock to the two daughters who had never seen the rivers in the south. Zhang Quan and Zhang Xue Er Xiao even jumped to the river to play in the water, so that Zhang Xiu told Hu Che'er to keep an eye on them, after all, there are too many facts about the drowning of the child, Zhang Xiu is already a father, and this matter is naturally in his heart.

After walking and stopping, they finally arrived at the Huojia village mentioned by Wang Wei two days later, which was already on the edge of Fancheng's jurisdiction, not far from the neighboring county.

Before Zhang Xiu and his entourage arrived at a village, Zhang Xiu asked Wang Weidao: "Zixin, are you sure that this is Huojia Village?" How do you feel that this place is a little more like a water village of water bandits. ”

Zhang Xiu also has a point. I saw that this plug was built according to the Han River, and the stockade built a high wall. From Zhang Xiu's point of view, this is the standard method of arranging the marching camp, and the wall is a little higher. Looking at the surrounding location, Rongzi had only one road to enter before, and there were hills on both sides. Can ambush the soldiers, the back of the stockade is against a hill, in front of the Han River, the exit on the other side is not known, but I think it is also easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Wang Wei replied: "Back to the eldest young master, this is indeed Huojia Village. Once upon a time, the Huo brothers lived in South County. There are often bandits invading villages near the Yangtze River. The government ignored it, so the villagers in these villages formed to defend themselves. Although the Huo brothers moved to Nanyang from their village, they also maintained this habit. ”

When everyone heard Wang Wei's explanation, their faces were stunned. However, Zhang Xiu quickly pointed to the vigilant person in the plug and the looming figure on the mountain on the side, and asked Wang Wei with a solemn expression: "Zixin." Even if you keep the habit of self-defense. How could it be that people were ambushed on the mountain, and the people in the village were also on guard with weapons? ”

Listening to Zhang Xiu's words, Wang Wei and the women in the village are indeed all holding silver blades, in troubled times, although Zhang Xiu prohibits the people in the rule not to hide weapons, but there are too many ways to sell weapons, Zhang Xiu is also prohibited, so this decree is not over. However, although Zhang Xiu understands the people's mentality of self-preservation, and is not very stable now, he will ignore this decree for the time being, and will collect the civilian blades after he is a little more stable in the future.

Zhang Xiu spoke at the same time. Tai Shici and Hu Che'er, the two battle-hardened men, naturally had already taken the blade in their hands, and protected the car with a wary look.

Then. On the side of the mountain, someone shouted: "In front is Huo Jiasai, and idle people are not allowed to enter." If you take another half step, don't blame me and other subordinates for showing no mercy. ”

Zhang Xiu's guard expression remained unchanged, and then he looked at Wang Wei with his eyes. Wang Wei replied loudly: "Prince Wang Wei of a certain Xiangyang family is a friend of Huo Du Huo Bozhong, but he is a brother in Huojia Village?" And ask Huo Bozhong to come out and meet. ”

As soon as Wang Wei said this, they heard a commotion on the other side, obviously they had already recognized Wang Wei after listening to Wang Wei's words. Waited a while. The man who had just spoken said, "Brother Wang, wait here for a while. We can't be the master of this matter, and we will wait for the second young man to make a decision. ”

Wang Wei responded, and then retreated to Zhang Xiu's side, but heard Tai Shici whisper Zhang Xiu said: "Lord, the people of this Huojia Village are arrogant, what is the difference between the thieves who occupy the mountains and are the kings. ”

Wang Wei was afraid that Zhang Xiu would misunderstand, so he immediately explained: "My lord." There may be a reason for this matter, Wei has been here a few times, and he has never seen Huojia Village have such a guard, and when Huo Zhongmiao came out, he knew the ins and outs of this matter. ”

Zhang Xiu's face was like sinking water, and he nodded and stopped talking. Waited for about a quarter of an hour. I saw a man in his twenties. The dignified-looking, young man dressed as a ranger led two big men to Zhang Xiu and others, and when he saw Wang Wei, he bowed his hand and said: "Brother Wang is here, Jun has not been able to greet him." Where the brothers in the village are offended, please don't blame Brother Wang and the two eldest brothers. After speaking, he saluted Zhang Xiu and Tai Shici.

Zhang Xiu and Tai Shi Ci bowed slightly in return, and then Zhang Xiu glanced at Wang Wei and motioned for him to speak on his behalf. Wang Wei nodded and asked Huo Jun: "Zhong Miao, why is there a guard, as if there is an enemy army attacking the stockade. ”

Huo Jun heard it and replied, "But it was my brother who was injured." Afraid that the enemy will seek revenge, so it is strictly guarded. This matter is a long story, but if Brother Wang and the two eldest brothers go to the village together, they will be made clear by Jun one by one. ”

Wang Wei looked at Zhang Xiu with his eyes. Seeing Zhang Xiu nodding slightly, he replied, "Okay." Bo Zhong was injured. He was going to visit him. ”

Huo Jun is a careful person, the small movements between Wang Wei and Zhang Xiu can naturally be seen, and the horses ridden by Zhang Xiu and Tai Shici are extraordinary. It can be said that Huo Jun has only seen it in his life, and the weapons in the hands of the two are not simple, and the two often command the army, and they have a majestic gas factory. Huo Jun also saw Hu Che'er behind him carefully put the weapon back into the car, and as soon as the wind was strong, he saw the mace, the murder weapon. It's just that Huo Jun has never seen a mace, so he can't recognize it for a while. But just like that, Huo Jun knew that the few people in front of him were all very human, and hurriedly ordered the two people behind him to go back to the village to make some points and bring the best things to wait.

After entering the village, Zhang Xiuyan made it clear that there were female dependents in the car, so Huo Jun immediately prepared a clean room, and the third daughter led the second child to rest in the room, and Hu Che'er was guarded.

After that, Huo Jun invited Zhang Xiu and the three of them to the main hall to meet each other, and after the guests sat down, Wang Wei couldn't help but ask: "Zhong Miao, who did Bozhong have a feud with and beat him to such a serious injury, I am afraid that if he is not careful, his life will not be guaranteed." Wang Wei went to visit Huo Du when Zhang Xiu settled the three daughters.

Zhang Xiu didn't know the situation, and hurriedly whispered to Tai Shi Ci, who had just gone with him to visit, and Tai Shi Ci described the situation a little. Hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn't help frowning, this Huo Jia not only suffered external injuries on his limbs, chest and abdomen, but also suffered a lot of internal injuries in his body. As Wang Wei said, if it is too late to be saved, I am afraid that my life will not be guaranteed.

At this time, Huo Jun sighed and replied, "Brother Wang and the two eldest brothers have ever heard of Jinfan, thief?"

Except that Tai Shi Ci looked dazed. Zhang Jing and Wang Wei said in unison: "Jinfan thief Gan Ning." It's just that Wang Wei's tone was full of hatred. And Zhang Xiu was mostly surprised.

Huo Jun can see it. said to Zhang Xiu: "It turns out that this eldest brother also knows that my brother was seriously injured by Gan Ning's fight." If it weren't for the timely arrival of the village, coupled with the life of the brothers in the village, I am afraid that the life of the brother will not be saved. ”

At this time, Wang Wei frowned and said: "Zhong Miao, hasn't this brocade thief always been trading in Nanjun on both sides of the Yangtze River, as well as in Changsha and Wuling?" Why did you come to Hanshui and Nanyang now?

Huo Jun could hear it. sighed: "Since the general of the fat cavalry entered Nanyang, he has been diligent in government and loves the people. Gradually, the people began to have abundant food and clothing.

The wealth of Nanyang County is known to the world, so Gan Ning came to Nanyang to do business. Brother Wang also knows Gan Ning's habit of robbing the rich to help the poor, but the people of Nanyang are rich, but Gan Ning is robbing the people of Nanyang to help the poor people of Xiangyang County on the other side. The people of Nanyang are all rich through their own hard work, how can they be like those families in Xiangyang and Nanjun who are rich and unkind, Gan Ning does not know the beginning and the end, and robs the people. It has left a bad name near Hanshui. My brother couldn't bear to be robbed of the people near Hanshui, so he led the brothers in the village to ambush the Jinfan thief, how did he know that he was defeated and returned, but fortunately Jun went in time to save his brother's life In the end, Huo Jun gritted his teeth.

Wang Wei listened. He said hatefully: "Wei originally thought that this Gan Ning was a man, how did he know that he was no different from other water bandits. I also wanted to make friends with him that day, but fortunately, Wei didn't go that day, otherwise it would be too late to regret it today

At this time, Zhang Xiu said: "Zhong Miao, the area here is under the jurisdiction of Fancheng, why didn't Fancheng order send troops to suppress bandits?" ”

Huo Jun heard this and replied: "It has been more than ten days since the Jinfan thieves came to invade this area, and the new Gong Cheng Ling Huang has twice sent troops to deal with the Jinfan thieves. But in the end, they all failed. In fact, this is not to blame Lord Huang. The general's subordinates are all northerners, not good at the navy, and Lord Huang has failed to trap the Jinfan thief even after repeated designs. This big brother should not underestimate the Jinfan thief, although there are only 800 people. However, the Yangtze River is invincible. Even Jingzhou Cai Mao's navy can't help him, and it is reasonable that Lord Huang can't exterminate the Jinfan thief

Here Zhang Xiu listened and bowed his head in contemplation. Over there, Tai Shi Ci directly took the case and scolded: "Gan Ning's guy is really hateful. Zhong Miao. I can know where Gan Ning's house is now, and when a certain person captures him alive, let him kowtow to the nearby people and admit his mistakes, and see if he can stop a certain thief with eight hundred brocade sails

Huo Jun could hear it. He was shocked: "Don't be impulsive this big brother, Gan Ning is strong in martial arts and extremely brave." In particular, water kung fu is superb. There is no one in the Jingzhou naval army, and it is also good at shooting. The one-handed archery skills are superb, and even the ninth ** Zhou Tai in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River also salutes him for three points, and he is afraid of the whole. When it comes to water kung fu, no one is his opponent

Here, Wang Wei also persuaded: "Although Ziyi is good at land kung fu, he is only afraid that he is not this Gan Ning's opponent on the water." ”

Tai Shi Ci heard it, slapped the long case angrily, and said loudly: "A certain Donglai Tai Shi Ci, who grew up by the sea since he was a child, and the turbulent waves are also regarded as leisure, how can he be afraid of this little river bandit, if it is a bow and arrow, there is only one person in the whole Han who can win a certain one, even if Wenhou Lu Bu wants to fight with a certain arrow." A certain is not afraid. What can this little Jiang bandit do, if he wants to arrest him, he is like a three-year-old child."

Huo Jun heard this, pointed at Tai Shi Ci and said in surprise: "This big brother" you, "You are Tai Shi Ci, the general of Pingxi?"

, heart thousand

Tai Shi Ci nodded. said: "A certain Donglai Tai Shi Ci, if you don't change your name, you can't change your surname." Zhong Miao can know where this Gan Ning is, and he will definitely be captured alive. ”
