Chapter 48: Distress on the way

After a long time, Qing Huan coughed and said, "County Lord, the night is cold, if there is nothing to do, go back to the room quickly!" ”

But Liang Xueru seemed to have something to say, and hurriedly tugged at Qinghuan's clothes, but suddenly found that something was wrong and let go, lowered her head and said: "I heard my father say that Brother Chang and his eldest brother are going to Ningzhou for disaster relief. Disaster relief is dangerous, Brother Chang should be careful! ”

As he spoke, he handed over a small porcelain bottle in his hand, "Ningzhou is not as good as Wangcheng, although it is said that there is a fire in July, but there are many mosquitoes in Ningzhou, the girl in my room is from Ningzhou, this is the good medicine she went to the pharmacy to dispense, so Brother Chang took it!" ”

Qing Huan took it, touched her head and said, "Thank you, county lord!" ”

When I saw her, it was as if I saw myself, infatuated men and women, most of them were like this, I couldn't give her the love of men and women, but I could give her brother or sister love, so I said: "If the group leader has a heart, then he will accept it." ”

Liang Xueru smiled brightly at this time, thinking that she had secretly run out, and left in a hurry after saying goodbye.

Qing Huan pinched the bottle of medicine, turned it in his hand, and shook his head. Human affection, love does not know what to do, and it goes deep. Liang Xueru may have affection for herself because she saved her, but what about her love for Su Ying? Why did it come about?

The moonlight is still slightly cool, and the bluestone road is still winding, but the people on the bluestone road have long since left......

Qinghuan stayed up all night, this time she went to Ningzhou, she didn't know a lot of things, so in order to prevent trouble, she consulted many books.

The sky was bright, and a little guy came to tell Qinghuan that it was time to go. Qing Huan rubbed his pantothenic eyes, put on a big coat and went out. I have to say that Su Ying's efficiency is still very good. In just one night, 3,000 elite soldiers and 60,000 stone of grain have been prepared.

Qing Huan looked at the mighty team, frowned, go to Ningzhou, how can it take five or six days, 60,000 stone grain is not a few, but it can only solve the urgent need, and in the end, it still needs the help of the grain merchant. The population of Ningzhou is much larger than that of Wangcheng, with 200,000 stones, and 60,000 stone of grain is not much at all.

It's just that the road is far away, and accidents will inevitably occur. Disaster relief is a fat gap, but because the risks are too high, very few people are willing to take on it. And the reason why the good family can solve the disaster every time is because of the good family army.

This disaster relief was huge, and the good family was also afraid that someone would plot against it, so it was also secretly interspersed with a sharp army. Liangquan and Qinghuan rode at the forefront.

The autumn wind is wheezing, the wind on the road is rolling the fallen leaves, blowing Qinghuan's eyes numb, she "rolls" as he wishes, is he in a better mood? His eyelids drooped slightly, and the corners of his mouth were a self-deprecating smile. Slowly drift away with the autumn wind.

Along the way, the army proceeded in an orderly manner, and there was nothing unusual about it, and on the first night, everyone rested for the night in a quiet wood, half of them took turns on duty, but they were all right.

Su Ying still couldn't rest assured that Qing Huan was not left next to him, nor was he sent away, which made him extremely upset, so he sent Lu Hong to Qing Huan's side to protect her safety.

At noon on the second day, the team was resting on the official road, and Lu Hong suddenly appeared next to Qing Huan, startling her.

Lu Hong knelt down and saluted, then stood up and said lightly: "Childe, the team is being targeted." ”

"What?" Qing Huan frowned, would anyone on the official road dare to be so blatant? So he asked, "Who?" ”

Lu Hong was not so nervous, and said respectfully: "I don't know." The two waves of people, who don't seem to be together, add up to no more than 100 people, always follow the team 500 meters away. ”

Qing Huan nodded, five hundred meters away, if it weren't for Lu Hong, I'm afraid it would be difficult to find, "How long has the other party been following?" ”

"I don't know, something started moving about an hour ago." He couldn't be sure if it was a killer sent by someone else, or a nearby bandit who had come to steal the food. He had only stumbled upon the spies.

Lu Hong's appearance did not shy away from everyone, but Liangquan recognized him at a glance. Contact with Su Ying all year round. How could he not know this ghost soldier leader. Now that he is under Qing Huan, you can imagine how important Qing Huan is to Su Ying.

Qing Huan told Liangquan about Lu Hong's discovery, and Liangquan lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "Now, we can only disperse the grain to prevent a sneak attack. ”

"Hmm." Qing Huan nodded, she thought so too. "Let's hurry as soon as possible, the front should be Huailiang, and we can settle down when we get to the county seat."

Liangquan was surprised to find that Qing Huan actually knew more about the terrain than him. What he didn't know was that Qing Huan had done his homework all night, so he naturally knew where he was passing along the way. She also knew that if they set off now, they would definitely enter Huailiang before sunset.

In the woods 500 meters away, fallen leaves are spread all over the forest, and there are still unfallen leaves on the trees, faintly shadowy. In the empty forest, there was a man dressed in a big coat sitting on the branches and shaking comfortably.

The dazzling white hair, but he reflected that he was unruly, only to see him casually pull up the three thousand green silk and crown it with a silver-white plum hairpin. A faint aroma wafts through the body.

"Hall Master! When do we leave? The man on the branch yawned, and the wind blew his sideburns, and he said lazily, "What's the hurry!" ”

After speaking, he leaned on the trunk of the tree and took a nap. As long as they can't get into Huailiang, it's fine, isn't it? The people hidden in the branches and leaves have long been accustomed to the unhurried appearance of the hall master.

But he didn't sleep for half an hour, and then another person came and said, "Hall Master, they are leaving!" ”

Only then did the man open his eyes and said, "Keep up, and find their weak points in a while!" After speaking, he paused and said, "Our target is only one person, and in the chaos, kill that person." ”

"Yes!" In the dense forest, there was a response from the people.

Liangquan and Qing Huan rode in front, Qing Huan glanced back from time to time, but the road was winding, but she couldn't see all the troops. Although they brought 4,000 men and horses, and the other party only had more than 100 people, she was still extremely uneasy, after all, the enemy was in the dark, and I was in the light. She had no idea what was going to happen.

The fear of the unknown made her uneasy, so she urged everyone to move forward quickly, and she didn't want anyone to have an accident. The carriage and horses traveled for two or three hours, the sun gradually tilted, and another hour arrived at Huailiang, and Qing Huan showed some smiles on his face.

Just as Qing Huan relaxed his vigilance, the autumn wind blew and swept the fallen leaves, disturbing the horses, and Qing Huan's horse neighed. Qing Huan also sensed that something was wrong, and the alarm bell sounded in his heart.

Liangquan made a gesture, and everyone hurriedly stood on guard. The woods around the official road are brushing. Lu Hong stood beside Qing Huan with a long sword in his hand.

A burst of strange fragrance drifted away with the autumn wind, and it smelled very good. Before Qing Huan could react, a dart that broke through the air came straight to her eyebrows. said that it was too late and that it was fast, and Lu Hong's long sword waved.

"Ding!" The dart fell to the ground in response, and Qing Huan was also rescued from the horse by Lu Hong, protecting him behind him.

But in an instant, Qing Huan's location was already full of darts, and it was hard to imagine what it would be like if Lu Hong hadn't rescued her.

Liangquan reined in the horse, found that Qing Huan was fine, and also held a sword to protect him. Although Liangquan is a civil servant, he has also practiced martial arts since he was a child, so it is enough to resist.

The attacker never showed up, and the fear of the unknown was the most frightening. Suddenly, the middle squad came to report that they had been attacked and that they had been seriously injured, and that they were obviously not fighting each other.

The line was very long, Liangquan signaled to Qing Huan, and arrived quickly with a few elite soldiers, and more than fifty men in black had already fought with the team.

The man in black held a long sword in his hand, and after a while, both sides suffered heavy casualties. Liangquan also participated, beheaded several men in black, and was injured himself.

The mighty team is also 100 meters long, and each detachment has its own food to protect, so there are not many people who can defend it. The central part was the weak link, and Qing Huan immediately ordered the troops in front to help.

So the number of people here in Qinghuan is slightly smaller. Lu Hong always felt that the person who threw the dart just now was still nearby, and he was afraid that his skill was still above him. Qing Huan suddenly transferred so many elite soldiers, and Lu Hong was a little worried.

As it turned out, his worries were not unfounded, and within a moment, the big trees overhead were chattering and falling leaves.

The little soldier in the back came with the news, the other party didn't seem to be a bandit who grabbed the grain, but more like a killer sent by someone, thinking of this, Qing Huan's mind suddenly appeared Liu Zhenguo's face.

"Brush!" A dart flew past Qing Huan's sideburns, and a strand of hair slowly fell.

"Be careful!" Lu Hong took Qing Huan to fly and dodge the dart, but he didn't want the rain-like darts behind him to "swish" straight towards Qing Huan, and Lu Hong's long sword was swirling, but it was no match for the opponent's dart.

When he dodged to protect Qing Huan, he was shot in the right arm by a dart. The hand holding the sword trembled. A fallen leaf fell, and a shadow stepped on the fallen leaf, dodged and flew to Lu Hong's side, knocking him away with one palm.

"Lu Hong!" Qing Huan's voice was torn, she had never seen such a scene, which made her a little scared and ran in the direction of Lu Hong.

"Don't come here, run!" Lu Hong knew that he couldn't protect her, and he just hoped that she could run fast.

At this time, the elite soldiers around him protected Qing Huan, and Qing Huan glared at the person who came. The person who came was dressed in black, covered his face, only revealing a pair of dark eyes, draped in a big coat, holding a sword, and walked towards Lu Hong step by step.

"Stop!" Qing Huan pushed away the person standing in front of her, and her petite body stood in front of her, her voice with anger, "Who are you?" ”

All the darts he threw just now were blocked by Lu Hong, and Mencius was a little annoyed, so he shot and injured Lu Hong, so he wanted to solve him first. He knew that even if Qing Huan ran away, it would be useless, so he simply ignored her.

I didn't expect that petite person to dare to shout with him at this time.

He looked at Qing Huan, whose pupils were like a small fireball burning, but it reminded him of a person, so he laughed out loud.

"What are you laughing at!" Qing Huan hates such a person the most, and he can laugh when he kills someone! She secretly waved her hand, and her eyes motioned to the person next to her to rescue Lu Hong.

Lu Hong has lived in the Imperial City Division since he was a child, and the idea he accepted was to protect his master, and his life was the master's, but he didn't expect Qing Huan to abandon him.

Mencius Shen didn't care, whether Lu Hong was dead or alive didn't have much impact on him. So he walked towards Qing Huan with his sword.

Just as everyone was on guard, a man in black flashed up to his side and whispered a few words. Mencius Shen stopped, frowned, and said, "Retreat!" ”

The man in black received the order and disappeared with him into a wood.
