Chapter 42: The Wooden Token

At this time, the night was dark, and everything was silent. Later generations will not be able to experience the vast and far-reaching dark night of ancient times, and there is no trace between the sky and the earth, and all of them are shrouded in darkness.

Sun Shao was attacked outside the city, and Qishi was anxious, but she knew that panic would not help. She stood up and walked out as she spoke, "Sister, I'll go out of the city to find them!" ”

"Huh? Out of town? It's a curfew. Xiao Qiao didn't react for a while, and said subconsciously.

The moon is dark and the wind is high at night, when people are killed and set on fire. Lujiang County implements a curfew every night at three o'clock, and the ban will not be lifted until three o'clock on the fifth watch, during which night walks and night tours are not allowed.

Qishi turned around and said calmly: "Sister, now is a critical moment, and the matter is urgent." I've got a way to muster people, I'm sure I'll find them! ”

Xiao Qiao said: "I'll go with you!" ”

"There are still people left behind in the house, so my sister can wait for us to come back with peace of mind!"

Joe took out a token from the drawer and stuffed it into Qishi. Qi Shi took a look, and saw that the token was made of wood, and it was quite heavy to start, presumably made of southern ironwood.

There is a seal on it, which seems to be Zhou Xu's exclusive token.

Xiao Qiao sent Qishi out of the hospital and explained: "With it, you can travel unhindered in Lujiang County and order local officials." ”

"Thank you, sister!" Qishi packed the token and walked away quickly. For some reason, she had a bad feeling in her heart, so she had to go out of the city herself.

Zhou Xu's eldest lady also got the same news and was already making a mess. Qi Shi walked through the flustered servants and maids, and when she arrived at the gate of the Zhou Mansion, the guard who had made her sad had not yet left his post.

Seeing Qishi, the guard was obviously nervous, and he opened the door of the mansion to Qishi without even thinking about it.

Qi Shi crossed the threshold, lifted the skirt and ran up. Unlike Xiao Qiao's self-contained image, she doesn't care about her appearance at a critical moment.

"Flower butterflies! Don't sleep, enemy! ”

In the dead of night alley, Qishi banged on the door vigorously, not minding that it would make noise to the neighbors.

Her voice was hurried enough, but she didn't expect the flower butterfly inside the door to speak louder, "It's coming!" Who are you going to kill this time! ”

"Shout all the people, get out of the city!"

There were more than a dozen Qingyun soldiers around Hua Die, who were distributed around, Hua Die opened the door excitedly, and shouted in a loud voice: "Brothers, copy guys!" ”

Those descendants of Shanyue had been holding back their strength for a long time, and now they knew that there was a battle to be fought, and they didn't hide it, and they rushed out of the house one after another.

The neighbors who had the courage to do good things looked out through the cracks in their own doors, and saw more than a dozen soldiers with swords assembled in the alley, led by two young girls, who could not see clearly, but saw that the figure should not be very old.

One of the girls whispered a few words, and then waved his hand vigorously, and the group strode towards the city gate.

Those people are as strong as dragons and tigers, but they don't know whose daughter has become their leader, and they really don't let them.

……

The south gate of Lujiang County has been opened, the torches on the city wall are bright, and there are bonfires lit every ten zhang outside the city wall, and it is half a mile in a row. This is all a wartime mechanism, and Lujiang County has entered a state of high alert at this time.

Xu Sheng and Zhou Tai, the two generals, led the team out of the city, and Zhu Heng commanded at the south gate, if Zhou Xu could not be found, they would have a big relationship.

Zhu Heng was born in a wealthy family in Jiangdong, and he was afraid that he would have to directly meet Sun Qun's anger, so he was very anxious in his heart, and kept pacing under the city gate.

"Who are you? What to do! There was the sound of soldiers shouting, Zhu Heng didn't pay attention to it, Chen Wu was already patrolling the city and strictly controlling the curfew. He has gathered his heavy troops here, and what else can go wrong in the city.

"I am ordered by Mrs. Zhou to lead the family out of the city to rescue Lord Taishou!" The voice was crisp and pleasant, and Zhu Heng followed the prestige, and it turned out to be a young woman.

The soldier inspected the token and handed it to Zhu Heng. Zhu Heng knew the truth with his hand, and threw it to the soldiers.

"Release!"

The woman over there generously replied: "Thank you, General!" ”

When Zhu Heng saw that the woman's face was born, he paid more attention to it, and when he saw the family following behind her, he was secretly surprised.

The ruthlessness of these people is the same as that of the Cao family's wolf-like Qingzhou soldiers back then, Zhou Xu is really a military wizard, and he can train his family into such a strong soldier.

It's just that such a talent is loyal to the Sun family. For Zhou Xu, their Jiangdong wealthy family also fought for it, but they all did useless work.

In order to avoid suspicion, Zhou Xu also put his two sons in Wu County and placed them under the control of the Sun family.

They can only start from Zhou Xu's periphery, especially for the people around Zhou Xu, they have also tried their best to win over them over the years, and they have also heard about the wind and grass in the Zhou Mansion.

But the news about this woman ...... It seems that there is really none, Zhu Heng decided to go back to find the information reported by the informant in the past few days.

"Big brother, who is she?" A handsome young man stepped forward and asked Zhu Heng.

Zhu Heng showed a kind smile on his face and said, "Zifan, you don't stay in the city tower, what are you doing here?" ”

The young man was dressed in leather armor and wore a sword at his waist, pointing to the city tower and said: "I just paid attention to observe, and I saw a group of people coming from the east of the city, and the momentum was like a rainbow, so I came down to watch." ”

"I don't know her, I heard just now that her name is Ah Shi, and she must be Zhou Gongjin's maid."

"Can a maid have such power to command a dozen elite soldiers? I think she can also ride a horse, and her identity is definitely not simple. This Zhou Gongjin really lives up to his reputation, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in the house, I want to visit another day, and I ask my eldest brother for permission. ”

"Zifan, you have also grown up, but you can experience it. However, this will also have to wait until Zhou Gongjin can come back safely. Xu Sheng and Zhou Tai have been out for nearly an hour, and the news sent back has not yet been found. I think there must be something strange about this matter, and we will strictly investigate the portal tonight to avoid finding out to us once Zhou Gongjin has an accident. ”

The young man talked to his eldest brother, but his eyes never left Qishi, his eyes flashed, reflecting the light of the jumping fire.

As soon as the Qingyun soldiers left the city, they galloped southwest under the leadership of Qishi and Hua Die. Qishi had already asked Hua Die to divide the area between the Lujiang River and Jiangxia, and then mapped it in her free time during the trip.

When the news of Sun Shao's attack came, Qi Shi quickly went through the map in his mind and judged three possible areas.

Qishi divided two teams of people, and he and Hua Die led the rest of the people straight to Caizi Lake in the southwest of Lujiang County.

There is a dense water network, and it is the easiest place to hide in this radius of dozens of miles.

Qi Shi rode on the horse, his expression becoming more and more serious. The other two sites were not far from Lujiang County, but neither of them could be found by the Lujiang Army.

If Sun Shao and the others choose to retreat to Caizi Lake, then it means that the situation is extremely grim!
