Chapter 12 Return to the village safely
"Fight against each other."
The young general may be in the period of voice change, and seems to be reluctant to talk much. But these four words still made Lu Hong stunned, and Lu Xianger also felt very strange. Just now, this young general still looked like he recognized Lu Xiang'er, and in the blink of an eye, he was going to 'compete' with Lu Hong, which was really strange.
Lu Xiang'er secretly looked at the young general, and at the same time thought about his relationship with that King Chen in her heart. may have felt Lu Xiang'er's eyes, the corners of the young general's mouth suddenly raised, but he still raised his eyebrows at Lu Hong and said, "Scared?" ”
"Compare to compare." was simply provoked by the young general, Lu Hong immediately puffed up his chest, looking like he was not admitting defeat.
When Lu Xiang'er saw Lu Hong's appearance, she first shook her head secretly, but soon became thoughtful. Lu Hong is still young, and it is when he is impulsive, and it is normal for him to not be able to stand the agitation of others. Lu Xiang'er also understands this, but when she thinks that if Lu Hong really looks like a general, this impulse is not a good thing. Lu Xiang'er kept this shortcoming of Lu Hong in her heart and was ready to slowly change it for him.
Seeing Lu Hong like this, the young general took a few steps slowly and stood calmly. And the military general behind him was very eye-catching, and immediately stepped aside, and motioned for Lu Xiang'er and Zhao Xiu to walk over as well. Lu Xiang'er first looked at Lu Hong, nodded when she saw him, and then pulled Zhao Xiu to the side. Zhao Xiu's spirit was not very good, so he found a clean place and dozed off against the tree.
When Lu Xianger found out about Zhao Xiu's actions, she had to sigh that Zhao Xiu and Zhao Yi were really twins. One is stupid to read, and the other is meaningless because of ignorance. However, this is also the temperament of most ordinary people in ancient times. Lu Xiang'er shook her head, and then turned to look at Lu Hong and the young general.
Actually, Lu Xianger really blamed Zhao Xiu wrong. Zhao Xiu, who was only eight years old, came here early in the morning to pick mushrooms, and was also frightened when he met the patrolling soldiers. After that, like Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er, he was interrogated by a team with a straight face. Although he happened to meet the young general who was patrolling the camp, he was about to send her out of the mountain. But this series of experiences is obviously not borne by Zhao Xiu, an eight-year-old ordinary girl.
Since seeing Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er, Zhao Xiu, who has been nervous, can be regarded as relaxed. After a long period of mental tension, normal people will definitely be tired and want to sleep, and the same is true for Zhao Xiu. Knowing that he was already safe, Zhao Xiu couldn't stop his sleepiness and didn't care about it.
Besides, Lu Hong and the young general stood opposite each other on a relatively flat grass. Lu Hong held the long wooden stick in his hand, but the young general was barehanded. On the surface, it seems that Lu Hong is more dominant and has weapons in his hands. But when the two of them fight, who is higher and who is lower, can be seen at a glance.
With Lu Hong's shouting, the soldiers patrolling in the distance were also looking over here, intentionally or unintentionally. Feeling these gazes, Lu Hong couldn't bear these pressures, his mentality became more and more unstable, and the wooden stick in his hand became more and more disorganized. The young general, however, seized the opportunity to grab the stick, twisted it inward, and snatched it into his hand.
The two fought for less than three rounds, and Lu Hong almost fell to the ground, but it was because the young general's subordinates showed mercy and helped him. Lu Hong obviously couldn't stand this blow, and he was stunned on the spot and lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. The young general looked at him, but he smiled slightly, slowly walked in front of Lu Hong, handed the wooden stick to Lu Hong's hand, and said softly: "Practice hard, you are still young." ”
"Thank you, General, for your advice." Hearing the encouragement of the young general, Lu Hong was a little moved. Thinking of what Uncle Zhao said, Lu Hong is a little old because he is learning martial arts, and if he wants to go further, he has to practice hard. Only then did Lu Hong regain some confidence, and he took the wooden stick with both hands very respectfully.
"Zhou You." The young general glanced at Lu Xiang'er casually, and then nodded to the general, but he took a step back.
The military general took advantage of Lu Xiang'er to call Zhao Xiu, stepped forward and said to Lu Hong: "After you go back, let the village inform the people in the village that this will become an important place for military camps, and don't let the villagers come to this mountain at will." If you catch trespassing on the barracks next time, you will be dealt with by military law. ”
Lu Hong nodded, picked up Lu Xiang'er again, and walked back with Zhao Xiu. But after walking a few steps, Lu Hong couldn't help but turn around, plucked up the courage and said, "General, I, can I come to you at a certain time." Don't worry, I'm not going to barracks, I just want to ask you to guide me. I, I really like to practice martial arts, and Uncle Zhao, who taught me martial arts, often has to go into the mountains to hunt. So, I ......"
When the young general saw Lu Xiang'er lying on Lu Hong's shoulder, he turned his head like Lu Hong, looking at him with a longing expression, and the corners of his mouth raised. After thinking about it, he turned around and said a long sentence to the military general next to him: "Tell everyone who patrols this mountain that I will be here every month today, and ask them not to arrest this...... What is your name? ”
"Lu Hong." Lu Hong saw that the young general agreed, and his face couldn't help but become excited.
"Don't worry, the general will notify him later." The military general didn't know why, but he also smiled, and his gaze at Lu Hong was much kinder.
Lu Hong's request was affirmed, and he felt that he was in a very good mood. And Zhao Xiu was also very happy because she was about to go home, but Lu Xiang'er, who was lying on Lu Hong's back, was a little puzzled. For some reason, she always felt that the young general's gaze was always sweeping over her body.
I've met him, and I don't remember. Lu Xiang'er rummaged through the memories in her mind, but she didn't find any memories of this young general. Fortunately, Lu Xiang'er could see that the young general did not show any hostility towards her or Lu Hong. Lu Xiang'er decided, then let it be. Even if it was a bad thing, it was not something that she, a five-year-old girl, could stop. As the saying goes, the boat is naturally straight to the bridge.
"Brother, Xiang'er come down and go by herself." Lu Xiang'er got off Lu Hong's back, took Zhao Xiu's hand, and walked towards the village very happily. Lu Hong followed behind with a wooden stick, and when he saw Lu Xiang'er smiling so happily, he couldn't help laughing.
At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded in the woods not far away. Lu Hong immediately ran in front of Lu Xiang'er and Zhao Xiu, and listened carefully to the footsteps getting closer and closer. It wasn't until the person appeared in front of Lu Xiang'er and the three of them that Zhao Xiu ran over shouting: "Daddy-"
Looking at Uncle Zhao's bow and arrows on his back, as well as the clothes on his body, he should have just returned from the mountains. At this time, Uncle Zhao was asking if Zhao Xiu had suffered any grievances. Lu Hong saw that Zhao Xiu was coquettish to Uncle Zhao, so he took Lu Xiang'er's hand and stood aside and waited. After Uncle Zhao put down Zhao Xiu, the two brothers and sisters stepped forward.
"Brother Hong, your good son, the master has written it down." Uncle Zhao glanced at Lu Hong deeply, and was very glad that he had accepted Lu Hong as an apprentice. In Uncle Zhao's heart, his twins are the most precious treasures. Everything Lu Hong did today was equivalent to the benefactor of the Zhao family.
Where did Lu Hong think of this, he was very embarrassed, his face was slightly red, and he said in a low voice: "Master, Brother Hong is your apprentice, and Xiu'er is also Brother Hong's junior sister, Brother Hong is not the kind of ruthless and unrighteous person." Moreover, the disciples have also benefited. ”
"Oh? What are the benefits? Lu Hong's cowardice made Uncle Zhao laugh and couldn't help but divert the topic. Only then did Lu Hong tell Uncle Zhao what happened before, including that he was going to the general to ask him for advice, after all, Lu Hong officially worshipped Uncle Zhao as his teacher. Something like this should be told to the master if it is reasonable and reasonable.
Uncle Zhao is really not a pedantic person, after listening to Lu Hong's narration, he nodded and said, "Brother Hong, although the master also understands what the young general means. However, this is an opportunity for you. As long as you catch it, it will be very good for you in the future. ”
"What the master said is very true, and the apprentice has been taught." Uncle Zhao said vaguely, Lu Hong heard it vaguely, but Lu Xiang'er was bright. If Lu Hong really wanted to go that way, it would be harmless for him to get to know a general.
Uncle Zhao found that Lu Hong didn't seem to understand his words, so he shook his head secretly, hugged Lu Xiang'er and Zhao Xiu, and said, "Okay, let's go back to the village." Your aunt is waiting for you at home. ”
"Oops, I've forgotten about my mother." Only then did Lu Hong remember that Lu Erniang was coming. At this time, Lu Hong could imagine it, because he took Lu Xiang'er to a dangerous place, and what was waiting for him after he went back was definitely a rattan.
