Chapter 21: Two Women
Li's carriage was roof shaved off by a large red-hot iron ball and flipped to the ground.
From the woods came a silly cry: "Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law! ”
"It's Mamoru!"
The stupid boy's voice is really a belated voice for Xu Yongzhi.
This child once opened the door of the coloring garden and called and searched for Xu Yongzhi in the house.
As long as Xu Yongzhi goes out to see Duan Zishou, maybe none of these scenes will happen today, or at least it will be much better than today's situation.
But that night, he took Mo Yuan, no, Li Lianqiao, the hand that reached out.
"How stupid I am." A thought flashed through him.
A good card of a slam is played by oneself, and it is a fool.
But at the beginning of the next game, it was a big fool who was still thinking about the gains and losses of the previous sentence.
Xu Yongzhi shouted: "Ah Shou! Brother is here, come on! ”
This is Xu Yongzhi's first request for help.
When Xu Yongzhi was a child, his parents once took him to watch the Flower Drum Opera in Tanzhou.
Zhao Yun, the famous general of the Three Kingdoms on the stage, fought fiercely in Changban Slope, was chased by Cao Cao to Dangyang Bridge, and met Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun shouted loudly, "Yide!" Help me! ”
Xu Yongzhi was very disappointed at the time.
"Father, isn't Zhao Yun the second fierce general of the Three Kingdoms?"
"Folklore, that's exactly what it says."
"Then why did he ask for help like Zhang Fei, who ranked fifth, what kind of hero is this?"
Children are like this, with a small rule to card the whole world.
In fact, the biggest rule in the world is the relationship and emotion between people and people.
Zhao Yun fought for a day, and there were enemies everywhere he saw, and finally arrived at Dangyang Bridge and saw his good buddy, how could he not be moved in his heart, how could he not shed tears?
"Maybe one day, when you are in trouble, you meet the most trustworthy person to experience those feelings." Xu Zhixun said to his son at the time, "There are many truths in the world, you can't understand them just by talking about them." ”
Today's Xu Yongzhi finally understood Zhao Yun's feelings.
It turns out that being saved and helped by people who care about you is not a shame at all, but a happy thing!
That's why he was injured all over the body, but he shouted for help.
Last time he chose a woman who believed in ulterior motives, this time, he must be with his friends!
Duan Zishou brandished his stick and smashed into the Southern Tang army like a tumbling wheel.
The ironclad soldiers fell in response.
Duan Zishou grabbed Xu Yongzhi's hand.
"Brother-in-law!"
"Call Big Brother!"
"Okay, big brother and brother-in-law!"
"I can't walk."
"I'll carry you!"
Strange, this is the first time that Xu Yongzhi has said that he "can't do anything" and is still confident.
In the past, this made him feel very ashamed when he thought about it, a man who is both civil and military, a super tough guy and a pure man, and a hero who commands the heroes of the rivers and lakes, how can he say that he can't do it?
"Great, after these things, I, Xu Yongzhi, can finally live shamelessly."
"Here you go!"
Duan Zishou stuffed his small crossbow and a box of spare arrows into Xu Yongzhi's hand.
The two men combined to form a Turret Humvee.
Duan Zishou was full of momentum, and he rushed with his legs, and Xu Yongzhi aimed at the enemy soldiers who wanted to approach on his back and sniped the enemy.
On the left side of the road, that is, in the north, there is a man who also shoots with a crossbow in the bushes, although the fire is not fierce, but the accuracy is very good, and he will adjust his position after shooting a few arrows, and he has been killing and wounding the enemy.
The person covering let Duan Zishou and Xu Yongzhi continue to fight the enemy who was in chaos.
"Get out of the way!" Li Lianqiao shouted angrily, and she used the fireball technique with her left hand to hit the bush, and the bush was on fire at once.
By the light of the fire, Xu Yongzhi saw the figure of the archer.
That thin body, who else could it be besides Xiaogui?
He really wanted to call Xiaogui loudly.
But he couldn't.
This is the rule of secret operations in the rivers and lakes, and you should never call each other by name.
In fact, Duan Zishou's "brother-in-law" has already revealed his identity, and he can no longer let the enemy know that the other partner is Xiaogui.
But at this moment, he really thinks about it, and he really wants Xiaogui to know that he is missing her.
Xiao Gui jumped out of hiding, extinguished the fire on his clothes, and began to retreat backwards.
Xu Yongzhi roared loudly: "Archery friends, I want to kill you!" ”
In a plural, I can't let the enemy know how many of us there are!
Xiao Gui's heart warmed when he heard this greeting, "Fool! ”
But she really felt the ultimate happiness in this life.
This person, at this moment, misses her, is real and certain.
When I heard this, even if I couldn't escape, I would admit it.
Duan Zishou had already helped Xu Yongzhi onto the horse, and he also got on the horse and sat down with Xu Yongzhi in his arms.
"Let's go!" Xiao Gui's order was very brief.
Duan Zishou's horse ran away.
Xiaogui climbed up to Xia Xiaohei, and led a horse behind him, also kicking the stirrup, and ran out.
"Chase, chase me!"
Mo Yuan rode on Xu Yongzhi's white horse, beckoning the knights to chase behind, these people were afraid of crossbow arrows, and they were all slow.
The people on this trail shouted that the horses were neighing, so it was not lively.
"Brother-in-law, how are you?" Duan Zishou asked Xu Yongzhi immediately.
"I'm fine, it's all flesh wounds."
"Why are you with little brother?" Xu Yongzhi asked?
"First of all, correct your mistake, now there is no little noble brother, only little noble sister."
"Sister Xiao Gui said that she would call her sister in the future, so she would buy me a flatbread and beef stew, if you call me brother, you can only drink cold water."
"This woman!" Xu Yongzhi couldn't help laughing out loud in his heart.
"You dry it! Don't mix with water! Xu Yongzhi urged Duan Zishou, "How did you act with Little Guijie?" ”
"A few days after you left, my sister and Uncle Taishi discovered my conspiracy, and they sent me to report to you to be on guard."
It turned out that the Shanzitang in Anguo County had been busy revealing the secret of Li Lianqiao.
As soon as Xu Taishi sent Xu Yongzhi away that day, he hurried to see Shi Dutou, and when he arrived at the door, he found that the door was closed, and when he knocked on the door, a servant with a face came to open the door.
"My family has gone to Bianliang City on an errand for the county lord," said the servant, "It is estimated that I will not be able to come back until the Dragon Boat Festival." ”
This is a common thing for Shi Dutou, after all, before the holiday, the eldest lord also has to go to Beijing to give gifts to his relationship.
But Xu Taishi went home and waited for three days, and gradually felt that something was wrong, so he went to the yamen to ask Shi Dutou, saying that he had a serious illness and asked for leave.
Xu Taishi hurriedly went to his house again, only to see that the door was closed, and there were crows rising and falling nearby.
"Not good!"
Xu Taishi entered over the wall and saw that people were dead.
Two servants were killed outside the second gate, Shi Dutou and his wife both died in the main room, and two maids and a small servant died in the kitchen.
If you think about it again, the servant who is born should be the murderer.
Obviously, it was Mo Yuan who sent someone to do it, and he was also a little vicious!
Xu Taishi came to look for Mo Yuan outside the coloring garden, but found that the flames in the garden were soaring, and the neighbors were fighting the fire.
"This woman is not an ordinary person!"
Xu Taishi hurriedly found Duan Meimei to discuss.
Duan Zishou listened and rubbed his hands: "Uncle Taishi, you and I will catch up and beat Mrs. Ji's family to death." ”
"This Mo Yuan is not a good person, but killing people casually is not our style of doing things." Xu Taishi said.
"Meimei, you are optimistic about the store, let the guys be on guard. Ah Shou, you go south first, and go to Tanzhou to remind the old lady, young master, be careful of Mo Yuan. I went to the Ezhou branch, and asked the branches to prepare along the way, and if there were any variables, I would like to take care of the Tanzhou head office. Xu Taishi arranged.
Duan Zishou came to the vicinity of Tanzhou in this way.
"As a result, the day I arrived, your town was burned down by these bad guys, and I met several brothers from the Bow and Arrow Society, who said that they didn't know your whereabouts, and I wanted to go into the city to save you. Later I heard that they spanked your ass. Duan Zishou said to Xu Yongzhi.
"It's the back."
"Oh, back, I think my butt is broken, it must be very painful, just on the road to prepare to ambush them to save you, I went to the water truck to find a big iron ball, ready to smash the bad woman, who knew that you actually lay in the car with her, brother-in-law, how can you sleep with a bad woman, shouldn't you just sleep with my sister?"
"Ah Shou, the eldest brother didn't sleep with a bad woman tonight, the bad woman is torturing the eldest brother." Xu Yongzhi was a little embarrassed.
"I was practicing throwing iron balls here, and I met the little noble sister coming, she recognized me, so she asked me to help, saying let me smash the car first, she came to cover, let us flee north, she is responsible for leading away the enemy." Duan Zishou said.
"Where are we going to meet up next?"
"Three forks, three forks, three forks, three forks." Duan Zishou muttered.
"What are you talking about?"
"Little Sister Gui said that when we get to the fork, we will go straight, and she will turn right." Duan Zishou said.
Between the flint and lightning, Xu Yongzhi understood Xiaogui's thoughts.
To the east is Jiangxi, which is the road to Longhu Mountain.
To the north is the Yangtze River ferry, if you prepare a boat there, you can easily cross the Yangtze River, and after crossing the river, it is the territory of the Great Zhou.
Xiaogui hopes to give Xu Yongzhi and Ah Shou more time!
You're a stupid girl!
Jiangxi is the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and it may encounter checkpoints and chasing soldiers at any time.
What Xu Yongzhi didn't know was that the road to Jiangxi that Xiaogui led the enemy to take was different from the road of Zhang Huan and Xu Xiaoduo.
She had already decided to enter a strange area where there were only enemies, where there were no allies, only killing opportunities.
"No way!" Xu Yongzhi said, "We want to be with Little Guijie." ”
"You don't know what you said about it." Duan Zishou said.
"Why?"
"Brother-in-law, although you are my brother-in-law, but now that I am here, you are the third in command." Duan Zishou said.
"Third in ......"
"First, my sister listens to you, it's your subordinate, but I'm not, I'm at most an employee's family, right."
"You're not stupid, you've figured out the organizational relationships."
"Little Sister asked me to tell you this."
"Second, Sister Xiao Gui has the grace to feed me flatbread and beef, so I first listen to my sister, second to her, and third to you."
"I invite you to eat beef and mutton, you listen to me instead!"
"That's not good, a man has the final say, and he can't be easily bought."
“……”
"Third, Sister Xiaogui said that if she can't come back, let you live a good life with my sister, I think since you are my brother-in-law, this matter is very important to my sister, so I listen to her."
"How unreasonable!"
"Little Sister Gui also said that if you talk nonsense again, you will be gagged. But I don't want to do that. ”
"Xiao Gui, Xiao Gui, you fool. What are you going to do? If you die like this, who can I marry and live as a matter of course? Xu Yongzhi thought about it, and his heart twitched and hurt.
The two men had already seen the fork in the road.
Duan Zishou picked Xu Yongzhi off the horse, and he hit the horse's buttocks hard, causing the horse to go straight to the west.
Then he carried Xu Yongzhi on his back and fled through the grass on the northern path.
The east side will be Xiaogui's way, Xu Yongzhi glanced at the road twice, and didn't know what to say.
Duan Zishou ran a mile away with Xu Yongzhi on his back, a horse tied to the tree, and Xiaogui was ready.
"Let's go!" Duan Zishou and Xu Yongzhi rode to the north.
Li Forsythia's pursuers encountered unprecedented difficulties.
Finally, more than thirty people were gathered, and Li Lianqiao began to regret why he didn't bring necromancy, but sent them all out to search for Xu Xiaoduo.
"Bring me a spare horse, change horses to chase!"
Catch up with the spell, first hack the stupid boy to death, and then burn the fake mother-in-law, his spells are not very clever compared to most wizards, but hanging and beating two plain people, it is still rich.
But Li Forsythia forgot one thing, her horse was really not very powerful.
She rode Xu Yongzhi's horse, Xu Xiaoyu, and she felt that the horse recognized the owner, and this horse should be able to easily find the taste of Xu Yongzhi.
She didn't expect Xu Xiaoyu to be too shrewd, knowing that she was not a friend, she was always fighting with her on the road, stopping and stopping, and kept trying to hang her down with branches.
Finally arrived at the three-way intersection and looked at the horseshoe tracks.
One rode west.
No horses went north.
The two horses headed east.
According to common sense, someone should protect Xu Yongzhi, so he should chase two horses.
But Li Forsythia's suspicious nature will not make her jump to conclusions so easily.
"Two horses should be a lure to the enemy, then one horse should be chased, or there is no horse."
"That's not right!"
"Fake girls, silly boys, and bad guys are running for their lives together, which of them will go with whom?"
"Of course, the dog man and woman stepped aside, fooling the stupid boy to lure us away."
In short, she uses her own mind to judge others, which gives good people a chance to live.
"Right!"
She pursued her soldiers eastward.
Xiaogui's strategy finally succeeded.
About an hour later, the pursuers found a horse that Xiaogui had abandoned, and the horse was already exhausted.
"Dog man and woman, now there is only one horse left!"
Thinking of Xiao Gui's intimate appearance holding Xu Yongzhi on the horse, she couldn't wait to catch up with the two of them immediately and tear Xiao Gui to pieces.
After a while, I saw Xiao Gui who lured the enemy again.
"What! There is only one! ”
"Fooled!"
Li Lianqiao rubbed his hands, rubbed out a magic bow, pulled it full of aiming at Xiaogui, and shot it with an arrow.
If it's normal, it's not difficult.
But Xiaogui hasn't slept well for several days.
There was a fight last night, and it's another one tonight.
The exhausted girl couldn't dodge at all.
She was hit by an arrow in her right shoulder and fell on Xia Xiaohei's back.
Xia Xiaohei felt that his master was injured, and his feet were in a hurry, and he saw that he was far away.
"Turn around, leave this alone, we've been fooled!"
At dawn, Li Lianqiao finally chased to the riverside, where is the shadow of Xu Yongzhi in the vast river? She jumped to her feet and scolded, even the Jiang God and the Dragon King scolded all over. I regret it in my heart, I should catch the thief and torture it, so as to relieve the hatred in my heart.
Fortunately, the thief Nizi is also certain to die, because a person who is hit by the magic bow will not survive without a wizard or potion to save him.
When Xu Yongzhi woke up, he found himself lying in a small carriage, and in the gap of the small window on the car, he had already seen the sun rising high, and they were already on the land of Jiangbei.
"Xiaogui......" He has lost a lot of relatives in the past few days, but in the enemy territory, he has never known how to digest such emotions.
Now that he was in a safe place, he could finally cry with peace of mind.
Xiaogui is the last connection between his life and his family.
If Xiaogui is gone, the home will be completely finished.
It's hot.
But Xu Yongzhi's body is getting colder and colder.
He was sick, and he felt countless fingers pointing at him behind his back, and countless eyes staring at him in the back of his head.
When he closed his eyes, he would see Li Forsythia with his eyes open and gritting his teeth.
Ambition has turned to dust, and the eldest young master of Shanzitang is now alive like a walking corpse.
"Why save me, let me die, let me be imprisoned in Li Forsythia's secret room."
Xu Yongzhi finally became the "woman in the palace with a thin waist" mentioned by Li Lianqiao, and compared with freedom, he can endure the life of captivity better.
Xia Xiaogui was groggy, lying on Xiao Hei's back, one person and one horse walked to a green grass, Xiao Hei couldn't walk, Xiao Gui fell off its back.
"Is that the end of it?"
Faintly, a red shadow walked over.
A young nobleman in an official robe leaned down to look at her.
"It's hurt, we have to save her."
"Tell the Imperial Doctor!"
A thin and old hand held down Xiao Gui's veins.
