Chapter 2: Beggars

Tianqi State Wenyang 435 years.

The ancient countries around Tianqi Country have sent envoys to meet Tianqi Kingdom, and the whole world has smelled an unusual smell.

On the grounds of physical discomfort, Emperor Wenyang ordered the envoys of various countries to stay in the capital of Qi first, and then enter the palace on a certain day to meet him.

A month later, the capital changed. The envoys of the major ancient kingdoms rebelled, together with some of the imperial forest troops guarding the Qi capital, the families of the founding heroes of the Tianqi Kingdom, the Ling family, the Nangong family, etc., and the power in the hands of the emperor was greatly reduced halfway.

Emperor Wenyang then became furious, blocked the city gate, and personally led many masters and the rest of the Imperial Forest Army to counterattack strongly, strangling thousands of envoys and rebels from various countries. Then he ordered the reorganization of the Imperial Forest.

The forces in various places have moved, and there are big moves, and they are all going to send the people to death, weakening the power of the Qi Emperor, so that he is powerless to fight back.

Subsequently, the world was in turmoil, and the king of the West cut the fiefdom and was close to the Western Wilderness. Supported by the surrounding ancient countries, he established himself as an emperor and formed a country, and the country was called Xia. The same is true of the king of Nanze, who became the emperor of the land, and the country name is Ze, and the world is called Nanze.

The rest of the lords were ready to move. Outside the customs in the north of Tianqi Kingdom, the alien races seem to be restless, and the customs defense is tight.

Independence is naturally indispensable for bloodshed, Xia and Ze are independent, and the soldiers who are loyal to Tianqi in the territory are all wiped out.

The Jianghu sect is not subject to secular interference, so it is no different from before.

Two years later, in the south of Tianqi Country, near Zeguo, in a small city, although it was in the midst of war, it was still peaceful.

"I heard that the soldiers defending the city have already run away, and the food is not ready, so they ran overnight!" In the city market, the lady of the bun shop was gossiping with another woman with melon seeds.

The woman sighed and said, "Hey, yes, a lot of things in the City Lord's Mansion haven't been taken away yet, and they were snatched up by the people in the morning!

The melon seeds in the mouth of the lady of the bun shop were still swallowing, and she glanced at the direction outside the city, and said: "Emperor Zehuang's army seems to be about to enter the city, this war is still suffering from the people." ”

The woman smiled and said: "I heard that this emperor Ze is a kind person, and he is very good with the soldiers and the people, and the army is not allowed to do anything wrong when it enters the city, but it is just a change of dynasty, and it has nothing to do with our ordinary people." ”

Emperor Ze stood on his own, and Tianqi was unable to recover, and after a year, Tianqi issued an edict and demarcated the territory with Zeguo.

This small city is sandwiched between Tianqi and Zeguo, and the city lord wants to stand on his own but can't, I'm afraid that it will be leveled in a moment. The lord of the city was uneasy, and as soon as the edict came, he hurriedly ran to another small place to resume his duties, for fear of being destroyed by the later Emperor Ze's army.

The eldest lady also smiled and replied: "If it weren't for the reputation of Emperor Naze, we would have scattered and died a long time ago..."

"Thief, you... Don't run!"

There was a young man under the stall, with a bun stuffed in his mouth, and one in his hand, and I don't know how many were in his arms.

The lady of the bun shop picked up a stick casually, chased after it, and shouted: "Business is not good during the war... You leave those buns in your arms!"

The boy swallowed the bun in his mouth with great difficulty, and when he looked back to see that the woman was not too close, he grimaced by the way.

Seeing this, the woman was very angry, and chased after the boy with all her strength.

The boy's name is Ling Xu, and he is the little boy who was displaced when the Ling family suffered.

The little boy was startled, turned around and ran towards the city gate, his small body moving flexibly through the crowd, like a little fox.

At the city gate, the city gate was wide open, and a group of soldiers slowly drove in, and the most eye-catching thing was a military flag painted with the word Ze.

The generals in front of the army rode on horseback, holding their heads high and not being majestic, and the people on both sides of the streets were discussing.

The young man ran to the front of the army, saw this group of mighty soldiers, and thought: "I have stolen all the restaurants in this small city, and I have almost been beaten to death several times! ”

"The city gate is wide open in front of me, so I will mess up this army, sneak out of the city, and find another place to stay!"

"Little thief, return the old lady's buns..."The lady of the bun shop behind pinched her waist and chased after her breathlessly.

The young man didn't have time to think too much, so he gritted his teeth and ran towards the army, thinking: These officers and soldiers are mighty and strong, I hope they won't be caught and beaten to death.

The soldiers who were sitting on the horse were stunned, and saw a little child running and drilling under the horse, and the horse under them began to riot, completely disobeying the call.

The young man shuttled under the horse, clutching a pointed stone in his hand, and when he passed a horse, he scratched its leg with the stone, and rejoiced in his heart: Look how you hold me.

The rugged general on the leading horse was furious, and he wanted to kill the thief, and at a glance, a soldier who was born and died with him in the distance, the horse rioted, and a little girl fell down behind him, and screamed, and the soldier failed to protect the little girl for a while.

The general was flustered, it was his little daughter. How could you be so naughty?

But I'm angry that my left and right arms don't even tell myself!

Although the six-year-old girl landed on the horse and was most injured, the horse was ruthless, and the life of the little girl was terrible in the riot.

"Hurry!

The generals also hurriedly dismounted, and they didn't care about suppressing the horses, so they went to protect the general's daughter.

The soldier with the little girl had a headache, but he came to recover a small city that he belonged to, thinking that there was no danger, so he took it with the little girl under the begging of him, and this was miserable!

Ling Xu was not far away, and when he heard the cry, he looked back and saw that the little girl had just fallen from the horse, thinking that it had nothing to do with me.

But when he accidentally saw the jade pendant thrown out of the little girl's chest, his heart was shocked, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he rushed forward to hug the little girl, protected her under him, looked at the jade pendant in front of her, and muttered, "Where did you get this jade pendant?"

With tears in her eyes, the little girl looked up at the child, who was as old as herself, and was about to speak, and then she was stunned.

The horses above were still rioting, Ling Xu only felt a pain in his back, felt that all his internal organs were displaced, he couldn't breathe, his mouth and nose were bleeding, he looked at the little girl in front of him, thinking that his heroic spirit could not be lost, he grinned, and then rolled his eyes and fainted......

The general rushed up, and the soldiers of the Quartet placed their horses, and stood by on the spot, looking at the young man on the ground with strange eyes......

Five days later, the town was still peaceful and peaceful, and the city lord's mansion had been changed to the general's mansion.

In a mansion in the General's Mansion, Ling Xu was in a daze and half-asleep, as if he heard someone talking.

"Lang Zhong, how is this kid. ”

"General, this little young master is weak and almost broke his heart by the horse's hooves, but fortunately, he was treated properly and saved his life. However, weakness and qi deficiency are symptoms of nutritional deficiencies. ”

Ling Xu gradually woke up, lying on the bed, with a lot of thoughts, thinking a lot. Tilting his head slightly, he saw that the general was saying goodbye to Lang Zhong.

I felt a dullness in my chest, coughed lightly, and then sat up, weak, and my back still hurt terribly.

I touched my arms and found that the buns were gone.

said indignantly: "It's shameless, I snatched all my buns!"

The general turned around and saw it, and walked quickly. "Little brother, you are still weak, lie down!"

Ling Xu pointed to his mouth, his mouth was so dry that it was difficult to make a sound.

The general patted his head and said with a smile: "Little brother, wait for me." Then he turned around and filled a glass of water, then came back and handed it to Ling Xu.

Ling Xu drank the water, felt that his voice was much more comfortable, looked at this rugged general, thought for a while, and asked, "General Wei Shengfeng?"

Wei Shengfeng was stunned for a moment, looked at Ling Xu's chest, there was a jade pendant in his thin clothes, and said, "I guessed your identity when I saw this jade pendant." ”

After a pause, he said with some self-reproach: "I also feel very sad about the suffering of the Ling family in the change of Qidu, but I didn't expect you to become a street child!"
