Chapter 188: The Overthrow of the Mountains
Last year, Zhuo Xiaoran went up the mountain, the Tiger Leap Temple was burned, and Su Jia died tragically, it turned out that it was because of this outstanding suicide note, and Emperor Xiao was afraid that once this letter was made public, his reputation of benevolence would be damaged, and his status would not be guaranteed.
Zhuo Xiaoran knew that there was something left in Huineng's hands, and after Huineng's death, the mantle was passed on to his disciple Wu Zen Master, and after the death of Wu Zen Master, it was passed on to his disciple Monk Sujia, so Zhuo Xiaoran went to Huyue Temple from time to time to find Monk Sujia.
The three masters, abide by the advice of excellence, want to wait for Zhuo Xiaoran to be weak and then hand it over to him, do not want to die one after another, it goes without saying, they are all masterpieces of Emperor Xiao, searched all over the Tiger Leap Temple, and did not find anything, Emperor Xiao did not do two endlessly, simply set fire to the Tiger Leap Temple, in order to prevent future troubles.
Unexpectedly, the monk Yijia hid this letter above the turtle shell of Turtle Xiaobai, and by mistake, it fell into Lan Ya's hands again.
opened another letter, the letter was written by Master Huineng, which wrote in detail the scene of Excellence in prison, afraid that Excellence would recover his martial arts and escape, Excellence's hands and tendons were broken by Meng Huai, and he couldn't use his strength at all, Huineng wanted to write on his behalf, Excellence said nothing, he sighed: "Mingxuan said, look at the pulse, this baby is still a son." Burdened by me, the eldest Zhuo Feng and the second Zhuo Yun are going to accompany Lao Tzu to the guillotine, Xuan'er is trapped in the Qin State, only Ran'er who is still in the womb is spared from death, I, who is a father, have not left him anything, the letter, must be written by his own hands. ”
Lan Ya can even be similar to a hero who has a strong vision for the world, but was charged with the crime of causing trouble in the world, and was scolded and spit on by thousands of people who sacrificed their lives to protect him; His beloved daughter is trapped in an enemy country and her whereabouts are unknown; His wife has many misunderstandings, and the future of his unborn son is uncertain......
The twilight of beauty and the end of heroes are nothing more than that. That letter took an hour, and the wolf's pen fell out of his hand dozens of times before he wrote such a letter full of father's love.
Although Zhuo Xiaoran didn't say it, Lan Ya could still feel that he had a deep grudge against his father Zhuo Zhuo and his aunt Liu, although he didn't believe in the emperor's decree, Zhuo Li passed through the Qin State, and ignored the seventeen counties of Nanxiao, suspecting that this was the emperor's strategy.
But he also never forgave his father and concubine Liu Niang. Because from the investigation, it is understood that Zhuo Zhuo loved the concubine Liu very much, and he was even more precious to his only daughter Zhuo Xuan, and his mother was even sad about it.
After the Liu family and Zhuo Xuan were taken captive, Zhuo Zhuo did visit the Qin camp at night to save the Liu family's mother and daughter, and was seriously injured, resulting in the loss of the seventeen counties, but he didn't expect that there was such a deep secret.
The Liu family, whom Xiao Ran resented, was in danger to save the princess, and now Meng Huai, the general of Southern Xiao, turned out to be the executioner of the Zhuo family, and it was difficult for him to come to visit the Zhuo family's mother and son every year.
With such a letter, Lan Ya didn't know whether to follow the instructions of excellence and hand it over to Xiao Ran.
Superior mood Lan Ya understands very well, before Xiao Ran has enough strength, handing over the letter to him will only make him more troubled, and even risk his life;
However, if he didn't give the letter to Xiao Ran, he would have to wait until the weak crown, that is, when he was twenty years old, to know the truth, and Emperor Xiao decreed that Xiao Ran would marry when he was eighteen years old and inherit his father's title.
Before the age of eighteen, he will definitely use all his strength, so that Xiao Ran will not live at that time.
Lan Ya carefully wrapped the letter in oiled paper and hid it in the hidden pocket on the inside of the pig's hair jacket, deciding that she would have the opportunity to meet Xiao Ran before making a decision.
......
Zhuo Mansion on the mountain ushered in a distinguished guest.
Xiao Ran affectionately let the middle-aged man into the hall and sent everyone back, Fang looked at the visitor happily: "Uncle Meng, why are you here, and you have brought so many soldiers and horses, aren't you afraid of His Majesty the Emperor's suspicion?" ”
The middle-aged man rubbed the young man's ink hair affectionately and said, "I didn't expect that I haven't seen you for five years, but Ran'er has grown so big, and she is taller than Uncle Meng." ”
Seeing the worry flashing on Xiao Ran's face, the man took a sip of tea and said, "Ran'er, don't worry about my whereabouts, I came by the emperor's order this time, and the emperor suspected that the king of Beixiao had something wrong and sent me to monitor him." ”
Xiao Ran breathed a sigh of relief and said to the man, "Uncle Meng, how is Nan Xiao's situation?" Is Nanxiao Wangfu still stable? How is Zhuo Jiajun now? ”
The man looked at the young man with a warm face, and replied with a smile: "Ran'er is still an anxious child, which one do you want Uncle Meng to answer first?" Nan Xiao is now stable, the dark tide in the Qin State is surging, the emperor and Qin Yan have torn their faces, and they are too busy to take care of themselves; In order to welcome your return, the Nanxiao Mansion has begun to be renovated, and some old servants have also returned to work on errands; The Zhuo family's army is strictly disciplined, but Uncle Meng is not good at leading the troops, if it weren't for my fault, I wouldn't have lost the seventeen counties back then, and let the emperor condemn the prince, I, I'm sorry for the prince and Ran'er...... ”
After speaking, the man slapped himself twice, and two blood-red palm prints immediately appeared on his face.
The young man's eyes were red, he grabbed the man's hand, and choked up: "Uncle Meng, I don't blame you, if it weren't for you, how could my mother and I survive for so many years." ”
The man took the young man in his arms, and where the young man couldn't see, the corners of the man's mouth were lightly raised, flashing with a cold light and calculation.
In the courtyard of Zhuo's mansion, in addition to the internal guards of King Beixiao, hundreds of soap-clothed armor soldiers were added, all of whom were extraordinary and unfamiliar faces.
At night, a rumbling sound woke up Lan Ya who was still asleep, the ground under his feet trembled, and the tea cups on the table fell to the ground one after another, shattered.
Lan Ya hurriedly jumped up, stumbled to Langfang, and shouted to the room of the Hai family and the sisters: "Mother, Xiang, Duo, Ya, run out, there is an earthquake!! ”
Lu'er and Lu'er have also run out, put their clothes on Lan Ya's body, and their bodies have gone into Lan Xiang's room and carried out Ping'an, and Lu'er also ran to Hai's room and hugged Da Lin out.
The family rushed into the flat area of the courtyard, followed by a few rumbling sounds, but then disappeared and there was no sound.
Lan Ya looked worriedly in the direction of Qixing Mountain, and said worriedly: "Mother, there is a lake and a mooring on the mountain, I am afraid that Yujia Village will be flooded with the earthquake, and I have to go back." ”
Hai grabbed Lan Ya and said, "Isn't it too dangerous to go back?" ”
Lan Ya patted the back of Hai's hand, smiled comfortingly, and replied: "Mother, how can I not go back, Luliu, Uncle Tao, and Aunt Tao have all stayed in Yujia Village, although they are not my relatives, they are better than my relatives, I can't abandon them." Besides, my father is him, he is also in his home village, no matter how much suspicion there is, he is also my father. ”
Hai's eyes are red, one is a girl, the other is the child's father, which is more important, she really can't tell for a while.
Brother Tao and Sister-in-law Tao fell to the ground on their knees, crying bitterly and tearing: "Thank you Miss for still thinking about my father, I will go back with you, and I can save one by one." ”
Lu'er replied first: "Don't make trouble, what happened, we don't know yet, I and Lu'er will accompany the young lady, and you will guard the house." ”
Ji Liang and a few young men rushed to Lan Ya at once, with a firm attitude, obviously asking Ying to go to Yujia Village to help.
Lan Ya nodded and said: "Lu'er and Lu'er have the best martial arts, the parrot beak is fast, and the fruit knows how to heal, just the four of you will accompany me, Kira and the others will stay to protect my mother and my sister." ”
Lan Ya looked at Kira eagerly and said: "Kira, among these people, you are the most assertive, I can rest assured that I will hand over my favorite relatives to you." There are a few families who know Zhuangzi, if they escape, like Aunt Liu, Aunt Yue, and Haishi, they will all go here, you prepare clean bath water, change clothes, bedding, food, etc., and take them in. ”
Kira nodded firmly.
Lan Ya put her long hair in a bunch, dressed up as a complete kid, prepared darts, daggers, long whips and other things, and several people quickly marched towards Yujia Village.
Because the house is in the western suburbs, built outside the town wall, now at night, the city wall is blocked, a few people can only bypass the fields of Yima Pingchuan, can bypass Longtou Town, and enter Yujia Village.
For the first few miles, a few people didn't feel anything unusual.
The reason why Lan Ya went to great lengths to get this plot from Wang Anshi was that although it was not too far from Qixing Mountain, it was relatively flat and belonged to a gentle area, which was not easy to ambush, not easy to flood, and far away from the people in the town.
The closer they got to the Seven Star Mountain Range, the worse the situation became, and they only felt that their feet were getting more and more muddy, and finally what flashed in their eyes was a large ocean, on which drowned chickens, pots and pans, wooden plows and other things floated in the farmhouse.
Fortunately, the water was not waist-deep, and a large number of villagers ran to the middle of the mountain, and Lan Ya hurriedly stopped: "Don't run to the mountain, the beasts on the mountain will follow the torrent and pour into the village, and the town is a little higher, run to the town." ”
As soon as he finished shouting, he heard a burst of tiger roars and wolf howls, and the villagers who had flocked to the middle of the mountain once again rushed to the town like a swarm.
A few men who moved their homes and refused to let go, couldn't look ahead, and almost knocked Lan Ya into the water, and Lan Ya screamed: "When is it, you can still take care of things!" ”
Several people sped up the process, and soon found Yu's house, seeing that the old Aunt Tao was gathering people, packing silk and other things, Lan Ya went up and knocked down the things in Aunt Tao's hands at once, and a large bag of gold and silver jewelry fell into the water.
Lan Ya said angrily: "I just scolded others for being stupid, it turns out that the people I brought with Lan Ya are also so stupid, when can I still take care of these yellow and white things, go quickly, and go back to the town." ”
Aunt Tao hurriedly grabbed the jewelry and said, "Miss, these are the dowries you prepared for the eldest lady, they are worthless, it's a pity to lose them." ”
Lan Ya grabbed Aunt Tao's hand, her eyes were red and said: "Auntie, you remember, don't say it's a small piece of jewelry, even all my net worth in Lan Ya is not as good as the life of anyone here, in my Yu Lan Ya's eyes, human life is bigger than the sky, and relatives are more important than anything else, do you know?" ”
Aunt Tao immediately concentrated, tears flowed down without warning, and her palms trembled slightly.
Lan Ya jumped up to the top of the wall and shouted to the people in the house: "All people, listen to me, put down everything in your hands, take only some offensive weapons, and follow the parrot back to the town together." ”
Everyone was in tears, learning from Aunt Tao's appearance, choosing the "offensive weapon" in their hands, some holding spoons for stir-frying, some holding fire sticks, and some holding kitchen knives, all of them looked awe-inspiring and ready to go.
Lan Ya said to Lu'er, Parrot and Guozi: "You two protect everyone to go back first, remember, march quickly, all the villagers who can be saved are rescued, and all of them are brought back, but they can only be taken in for one night, remember, let the villagers go to Wu Chengyi early tomorrow morning, and let the officials solve the problem." Otherwise, we will be in trouble. ”
Lu'er nodded heavily, and walked out of the courtyard by the river first, and at the entrance of the courtyard, she saw Liu Xiucai, Lin Yuniang and the maid Qian'er, and looked at Lan Ya pitifully.
Lan Ya glanced at Lin Yuniang silently, and said to Lu'er: "Take them, go directly to pick up my father, and be careful of tigers, wolves, snakes and other beasts." ”
Yu'er nodded disdainfully, and the long sword in her hand slapped the water, splashing a layer of water, splashing Lin Yuniang's head and face.
Lin Yuniang didn't think it was a pestle, and asked hesitantly: "You, where are you going?" ”
Lan Ya looked at the Hessen Forest, a wolf Qixing Mountain, and said quietly: "I'll go to see my uncle and Liu Yuan, I can only feel at ease when they are safe." ”
The girl's back was straight, confident as a thousand-year-old rock, and she stood still despite the wind and rain.
Lin Yuniang lowered her eyelids, hesitated for a moment, and took off a red rope pendant from her neck, on which hung a small red triangular flat cloth bag, faintly wafting with fragrance.
Lin Yuniang handed it to Lan Ya without hesitation and said: "This is the peace charm that my mother asked me for, I wish you a safe return." ”
Lan Ya smiled and took the red peace charm, put it on her neck and said, "Definitely." ”
After speaking, Lan Ya jumped up the mountain without looking back, followed by the equally light heron. In the middle of the blue bud jump, Lu'er quietly took out a paper tube and held it high in the air, and a blue bullet mist exploded in the air.
