Chapter 058: The Man Who Is the Virtuous King
Wen Dong and his entourage arrived at a market not far from the barracks.
But seeing that the shops in the market were closed, he walked a few in a row, and finally knocked on a rice shop, but Xiao Er said with a bitter face: "No." ”
It's cold, they have been walking for so long, they haven't even drunk hot tea, and after looking for so long, they finally found one, but there is no food to sell, Wen Dong was angry: "You open a rice shop, you told me that there is no food to sell?!" ”
"No is nothing!" Xiao Er saw that the son who came to buy rice was not like a good person, and he panicked and wanted to close the door.
Wen Dong kicked open the store and grabbed Xiao Er's clothes: "Say, sell it or not?!" ”
"No, how can you sell ......" The son in front of him looked fierce, and Xiao Er was so frightened that he couldn't even speak.
"I obviously don't want to sell it!" Wen Dong raised his fist and wanted to beat someone.
But the raised fist was grabbed by the person behind him, Wen Dong turned his face in surprise, but it was Ye Qinghan, he struggled to break free from Ye Qinghan's clamp, but he didn't succeed.
Ye Qinghan put aside Wen Dong's hand holding Xiao Er's shirt, and said to Wen Dong: "Northern Xinjiang has just been hit by floods, and there are many wars, and the nearby villages are ten rooms and nine empty, where is there still food to sell to you?" ”
"This boy is so right!"
Xiao Er saw that the night was cold and dressed in white, and the pale brown eyes were full of sparkling, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze, as if he came out of the painting, and his voice instantly became confident, "Our owner moved his family to the imperial capital before the war, and transported all the furniture and food in the store, and we didn't eat it ourselves, where is the grain to sell to you?" ”
Wen Dong's face was a little sneered when he heard this, and he turned around and left.
Ye Qinghan took two steps to catch up with Wen Dong and opened his mouth lightly: "I heard that you received an errand from the grain transport officer this time, why do you still want to come here to buy grain?" ”
"I ...... I lost my rations and wanted to make up for them. ”
"How much?"
Wen Dong didn't expect Ye Qinghan to send him a cart of grain, which made him a little unhappy: "This is your rations for going to Northern Xinjiang, how can I ask for it?" ”
"These books are for the junior brother to go to the imperial capital to buy to support the northern frontier, you also want to support the northern frontier, for you or for the northern frontier is the same?"
As he spoke, the sky darkened a little, and the snowflakes swayed and drifted down, staining his face, bringing a small chill.
Ye Qinghan raised his eyes and looked at the sky: "It's not early, you should bring the grain and grass back to the barracks early, and we should also hurry." ”
Wen Dong hugged his fists gratefully, so the two of them shook themselves in the snowy sky and said goodbye.
Wen Dong said goodbye to the cold night, and led everyone to the barracks.
When there were still a few miles away from the barracks, the sky had already darkened, and when they entered the forest that they had to pass through to the barracks, everyone felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and when they looked up, they saw a group of black-clothed men with masked faces jumping down from the trees, holding Sensen's blades and looking at them.
The light in the forest was dim and unclear, and the man in black came suddenly, and Wen Dong and the others, who were directly killed, were caught off guard.
Everyone was surrounded by the man in black, and a guard beside Wen Dong said to the man in black, protecting Wen Dong behind him: "We don't want to hurt the innocent, if you are here to force food, take it!" ”
But the other party had no intention of leaving, and his eyes that were exposed outside the face towel flashed with murderous intent.
Wen Dong and the others instantly understood.
These people are not aiming for food and grass, they are the ones!
Who will intercept them here?
Without giving Wen Dong and the others a chance to think, the man in black had already slashed at them in the encirclement, and everyone looked at each other and could only fight hard.
But they only came out to buy food, and there were not many of them, so how could they be the opponents of such a large group of men in black.
Seeing the people around him fall one by one, looking at the several long knives that were slashing at him, Wen Dong was a little overwhelmed.
At this moment, a white voice flew in, waved his sword to block the long knife, and followed by the white figure who followed the multiplier to kill him, it was Ye Qinghan, who had just said goodbye to Wen Dong, who heard the movement and rushed to the rescue.
The man in black didn't seem to think that Wen Dong still had a helper, and he suddenly panicked.
After the loss of several comrades, the leader of the men in black blew the slogan, and the others followed him into the woods.
Wen Dong still wanted to chase it, but was caught by Ye Qinghan: "Poor Kou Mo chase, you go back to the barracks first and then do your thoughts." ”
"I'm afraid that if it's a disaster, I'll go out of the barracks again!" One of the only remaining guards on Wen Dong's side lifted the veil of a man in black and said, "I have clearly seen this person under the command of King Xian before. ”
"I'm afraid that the theft of military rations last night was King Xian's idea, right?" Another asked.
"Looking at it now, it was King Xian's inadvertence."
Wen Dong looked at the corpse on the ground and fell into deep thought, "I'm afraid that last night's sneak attack was also instigated by King Xian!" ”
"The dog Rong invaded my frontier, but His Royal Highness King Xian beat his own people, aren't you afraid of God's punishment?!" Wen Dong's guards said hatefully, "I don't think we should send grain and grass to the north of Xinjiang, let's take the corpse back to the imperial capital and sue King Xian's royal state!" ”
Wen Dong shook his head: "A few corpses, King Xian won't admit it, we went back to the imperial capital to leave our duties without permission, and Miss Hua is still in the barracks, she saved me last night, I can't just leave." ”
Ye Qinghan heard that Hualuo and Zhu Yu were in a military camp, his eyes darkened, and he turned around and prepared to leave.
But I heard the guard next to Wen Dong say: "That person is Miss Hua, didn't Wen Gongzi say that the guards sent by Lingtang?" ”
"That's because Miss Hua ran out secretly, for fear of being recognized."
Wen Dong said as he spoke, and said in a lost voice, "Oh no, if all this is a game set up by King Xian, then he doesn't want to learn martial arts with my guards at all, he's afraid it's going to be unfavorable to Miss Hua's family!" ”
Ye Qinghan's footsteps paused when he heard this, then turned around suddenly, led the horse next to him, turned over and jumped on the horse's back: "Go back and save people!" ”
Seeing this, all the people turned on their horses and galloped, and the horses drove quickly towards the barracks.
The weather was full of snow, and all that was left in everyone's ears was the cold wind whistling.
After a while, they had arrived at the gate of the barracks, and the camp guard saw a large group of people dressed in white with long swords in their hands from a distance, and they didn't know the intention of these people, so they raised their spears in a panic and stopped in front of the barracks: "Who are you, dare to trespass on the barracks?" ”
Wen Dong just wanted to speak, but Ye Qinghan had already used his long sword to pick off the spear of the city guard, and drove straight in.
The junior brothers behind him were a little stunned, in their eyes, their senior brothers have always been calm and elegant, when did they become so impulsive?
However, everyone only hesitated for a moment, and then followed the cold horses into the barracks.
The soldiers in the camp, who were living and cooking, were stunned by the sudden change on their backs, and only then did they remember to pick up their weapons.
And this group of people was already gathered in front of the main tent.
