Chapter 77: The Scenery of Ringing Horses

The two of them were separated from each other affectionately, and after a long time, he put away his excited tears and said in a low voice: "Miao Yi, how are you doing?" It's all useless, I'm just a waste, watching you being bullied, but I can't do anything. With an excited trill in his words, he was even so happy that he got carried away to grab Sima Guansheng's jade hand.

Ling's mother coughed twice and stopped his outrageous action.

In order not to make others suspicious, Liu Liyue took a brocade and put it on her wrist, pretending to be a vein.

"A, don't say that, the man is ambitious in all directions, and you don't need to take it to heart. I'm all right, and you put your heart back in your stomach. I came today to say goodbye to you......"

Liu Liyue was so excited that she almost got up, and asked urgently: "Farewell?" Are you leaving? Where to go? ”

"A, don't be so impulsive, I'm going to Yongzhou, if nothing happens, I'll return in more than a month."

"It's good, why do you want to go to Yongzhou?"

"It's a long story, let me explain it to you later."

"Okay, if you don't want to say, I won't ask more, the road is far away, I'll accompany you, right?"

"No...... No, with my uncle with me, you don't need to worry. The carriage is still waiting at the door, so I won't tell you more. A, this is the sachet I embroidered myself, I give it to you, you cherish it, I'm leaving. She gave the sachet to Liu Liyue in a panic, and hurriedly turned around and walked out. His cheeks were crimson, and his face was shy and shy.

"Miaoyi, Miaoyi......" Liu Liyue held the sachet tightly in his hand and shouted to catch up.

"Doctor Bai, please respect yourself." In order not to arouse suspicion, Ling's mother was responsible for the break.

Liu Liyue had to stop, and watched Sima Guansheng's master and servant go out, and then hurriedly walked to the door, watching the carriage drift away.

After all, he still couldn't hold back, turned back to the side hall, and took the jade flute, "Master, I have something urgent, go out." With that, he chased out the door and ran wildly after the carriage.

Sima Guansheng sat in the carriage, dragging the poppy silver hairpin in his hand, and his heart was mixed.

In a short time, the carriage left the city gates.

Liu Liyue also chased him to the gate of the city, used some silver, and asked the soldiers guarding the city to let him go up to the city tower. Looking at the carriage that was moving away, he picked up the jade flute in his hand and played a farewell song.

The sad sound of the flute, mixed with the sound of the wind, drifted into Sima Guansheng's ears. She heard the sound of Liu Liyue's flute, lifted the curtain, looked in the direction where the sound came from, and looked at the gradually blurred figure on the city gate, with tears flashing in her eyes.

It wasn't until she could no longer see Luoyang City and hear the sad voice that she closed the curtain and retracted her head into the carriage with a sad face.

Liu Liyue was the same, and when he could no longer see the shadow of the carriage, he put away the jade flute in frustration.

Mother Ling saw that Sima Guansheng was sad, so she deliberately said something to divert her attention and said, "Second girl, look." ”

"See what?"

"You open the curtain and see, and you'll know." Mother Ling smiled mysteriously.

Sima Guansheng lifted the curtain of the carriage, and a different mountain scenery of Luoyang came into view.

In early spring, everywhere is lush and green, a hundred flowers are vibrant, full of spring, and it is overwhelming.

She kept lying on the car window, like an innocent child, her eyes resting on these beautiful scenery and refusing to take her eyes off, and her joy replaced the fear and sorrow of the long journey.

The carriage drifted away, and Luoyang City was left far behind.

Sima Guansheng was enjoying the scenery, and saw Bihua who was tired and constantly wiping his sweat, and when he heard the sound, he stopped the carriage, and poked his head out to the two uninvited servants: "Bihua, come in the car!" Zhengwu, you go to your uncle's car! ”

"Second girl, the slave doesn't dare." Bihua hurriedly excused herself, and Zhengwu also nodded in agreement.

"The second girl asked you to come up, and you came up. This is a long way, if you are tired, who will serve the second girl? Mother Ling saw the two servants squirming and pinching, and she also pushed open the carriage door and poked her head out.

The two servants looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and then each went to the carriage, and sat down on the empty seat.

On the first day, she admired the sea of trees and flowers, clear water and blue sky in Shaanzhou City. Surrounded by mountains and water on three sides, half of the city smoke trees flat city fields.

On the second day, she enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the farm in Dongfu, which was full of golden fragrance and thousands of mountains in spring. The smoke curls up, the willows draw out strips of new green, and the flowers compete for beauty, and they are full of vitality. She really wants to be an ordinary person, in the beauty of this farm, and live a dull life.

On the third day, she saw thousands of miles of reeds and wheat waves in Chang'an.

A few days ago, everything was safe, the road was unimpeded, and the wind and waves were calm.

On this day, as usual, after breakfast at the inn, they set out on the road to Lingfu in Yongzhou again. When passing through a cypress forest, the horse suddenly neighed and stopped, and the carriage jolted so hard that Sima Wansheng's head almost hit the body panel of the carriage.

Mother Ling hurriedly stepped forward to help her steady, "Second girl, are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine."

"Bihua, what's going on?" Mother Ling asked through the carriage door towards Bihua on the seat.

"Yes, yes...... There is a ......" Bihua was trembling with fright by the scene in front of her, and she didn't say anything for a long time.

"This girl, it's not easy to say anything, and I don't know how Mrs. adjusts on weekdays. Taught? Mother Ling helped Sima Wansheng sit firmly, pushed open the carriage door, and everything that came into her eyes was shocking.

In front of the carriage stood a group of fierce and vicious horses, each carrying a large knife on his shoulder.

At this time, the leader of the ringing horses shouted: "Get out of here, you are lucky, it is our brother's first business today, give you a chance to choose, do you want money or death?" ”

When Sima Guansheng heard this, he asked Ling's mother, who was trembling with fright at the door of the carriage, and said, "Ling's mother, what's going on?" ”

"Second girl...... Be...... It's a ringing horse. ”

"What? Ringing horses? ”

Everyone says that Yongzhou is the world of ringing horses and the paradise of sounding horses. But we've tried our best to pick the official road, can we still run into it?

She was a little unconvinced, grabbed the bow and arrow and feather arrow placed beside her, and said calmly: "Mother Ling, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, didn't they let us go down?" Then we will go down to meet, this is the first time I have seen Xiangmazi, it is really a worthwhile trip, and I have gained a lot. ”

"Second girl, when is this, are you still in the mood to joke?"

As soon as Mother Ling's words fell, the impatient Xiang Ma Toutou shouted loudly again: "If you don't eat toast, you will be punished for drinking, right?" He rushed to the carriage in a rage, waved his big knife, and as soon as he slashed down, the groom fell to the ground screaming.

Bihua was so frightened that she fell off the seat and hid behind the carriage, her face turned pale, she held her head in a trance and muttered to herself: "Don't kill me, don't kill me...... Please...... Don't kill me......"

Mother Ling covered her mouth in fright and screamed, and sat down at the door of the carriage.

Ringing Horse Toutou turned his gaze to her, with a hideous expression on his face, put the blood-stained knife to her neck, and roared: "If you don't want to die, get down." ”

Ling's mother stepped out of the carriage cooperatively, and pleaded with her mouth: "Hero, if you have something to say, why bother to use knives and guns?" ”

Ling Wencheng took advantage of this time to sneak out of the carriage and ran behind the big rock not far away to hide, holding the statue of the child-giving lady tightly in his hand. He was so frightened that his legs went limp, and his urine ran out of control and wet his robe.

After Ling's mother came down, Sima Guansheng took the initiative to get out of the carriage wearing a curtain and holding a bow and arrows and feather arrows.

"Yo hey! Brothers, there are little ladies. Xiang Ma Zitou saw Sima Guansheng with a graceful posture, removed the knife from Ling's mother's neck and carried it to his shoulder, staring at Sima Guansheng up and down with squinting eyes.

The rest of the horses also shouted loudly, and leaned back with laughter.

Xiang Mazi waved the big knife in his hand and lifted the curtain on Sima Guansheng's head, and the curtain on Sima Guansheng's head was lifted to the ground, revealing his shameful face.

Sima Guansheng staggered back a few steps, stretched out his bow and arrow in front of him, and made a self-defense movement.

At this time, Zhengwu, who was in the carriage behind, came to help the lord with a stick. He clenched the stick with both hands, blocked in front of Sima Guansheng, and shouted quite boldly: "What do you want to do? Don't hurt my second girl. ”

These nursing homes only use sticks to drive people away on weekdays, and I am afraid that this is the first time I have seen such a scene. Sima Guansheng could tell from his trembling legs that he was probably not lightly frightened.

"O boy, loyal servant! If you know each other, get out of the way, don't stand in the way of Lao Tzu looking at the little lady. Otherwise, next year today will be your day of sacrifice. The head of the horse said viciously.

Sima Guansheng also persuaded him: "Zhengwu, you get out of the way." ”

"I won't let you hurt my second girl." Zhengwu didn't want to go to the point.

Ringing Mazi didn't say anything more, he swung his big knife and slashed at Zhengwu's head, Zhengwu raised his stick to block it, the stick was split in half, he was bounced out, and fell to the ground.

Sima Guansheng's face once again appeared in the eyes of the head of the horse.

"Wow! What a beautiful little lady," Xiang Mazi stared at Sima Guansheng with a salivating look, "Brothers, it seems that we are both rich and beautiful today!" ”

"Big brother, such a beautiful girl, you just take it back to the village to be the lady of the village, so that we also have a sister-in-law."

"yes!"

"That's right! Take it back, take it back. ”

Those ringing horses all came up with bad ideas next to them, and asked the head of the ringing horses to take Sima Guansheng back to the village. It's really like things gather people in groups, and they are all snakes and rats.

"Hero, my girl is young and just a child, let her go! We have given you both the silver, and you have let us live, so I beg you. When Ling's mother heard this, she hurriedly knelt at the feet of the head of the horse and begged bitterly.

Xiang Mazi kicked his head and feet, kicking Ling's mother to the ground, deaf to her words.

"Mother Ling, you get up, when you come to me, the horses are all cold-blooded, you don't need them." Sima Guansheng had no intention of flinching, raised his head with his chest straight, and said categorically and forcefully.

Mother Ling got up from the ground and walked behind her, she handed the feather quiver to Mother Ling behind her.
