Qing Yan looked at Ran Ying's crying little face steadily, and a little shiny liquid surged under his eyes. He stretched out his hand and gently stroked Ran Ying's face, and said in a dumb voice, "Ah Ying, I didn't lie to you. When the time is right, you'll know everything. ”

Ran Ying heard him say this, knowing that he wouldn't say anything if he was reluctant, and finally gradually calmed down. She lowered her head and asked softly, "Then will you leave me?" You're not going to leave me, are you? ”

Qing Yan smiled slightly and touched her head: "No, I will guard you." He pinched her nose again: "But you also have to allow me to go back to my hometown to visit my wife sometimes, right?" ”

Ran Ying burst into tears and laughed, and lowered her head embarrassedly. How did you forget that he was already married.

"You see, my little A-Ying is getting stronger and stronger, isn't it? Isn't it your turn to save me this time? In the future, even without me, nothing can be difficult for you. ”

Hearing Qingyan's praise, Ran Ying smiled a little.

Ran Ying was silent for a while, and suddenly whispered in his ear: "By the way, I came here because I have one more thing I want to discuss with you." There is a cave under the back cliff. I saw it yesterday when I fell. I wonder if the clue to the jade seal will be there. ”

Qing Yan was startled, propped himself up and said, "I can't help you like this now, you want to go by yourself?" ”

Ran Ying whispered, "I'll go tonight." ”

Qing Yan took her hand: "Bring the Qing Yu Sword and be careful yourself." ”

Coming out of Qingyan's room, he met Hyun Cheng head-on. Xuan Cheng saw her and said, "Yo, what's wrong?" With red eyes and a sullen look, is it my people who didn't take good care of your companions? You name it, I'll make their asses bloom! ”

Ran Ying shook her head: "Qingyan, he's fine." ”

"Then what are you crying about?"

Ran Ying glared at him: "It's not that he's too badly injured!" You guys got that heavy hands?! ”

Xuan Cheng scratched his head: "I really don't blame us. That friend of yours was injured like that, and he injured several of us, and we couldn't stop him! Besides, we are all bandits, who cares if we are heavy or not? The one who is compassionate is the monk in the temple! ”

Ran Ying was angry and was about to leave.

Xuan Cheng stopped her with a smile and said, "Ah Ying, your swordsmanship is so good, and that Qingyan is also very powerful, why don't you join us too, let's do a great career together!" ”

Ran Ying glanced at him: "What big cause?" ”

Xuan Cheng laughed: "I want to be the king of bandits in the world!" ”

Ran Ying snorted and laughed: "I thought you were going to fight Jiankang and be the master of the world." ”

Hyun Sung said, "What's the point of that? Those people in the court are accustomed to deceiving me, and they are all too bad. I, Ji Xuancheng, just want to gallop on this distant river and lake! ”

His eyes were burning and shining, and his expression was more serious than he had ever seen before.

While talking and laughing, Yan Chong hurriedly came, his face was very gloomy: "Xuancheng, the officers and soldiers are here." ”

Xuan Cheng listened disapprovingly: "Come on, come on." Just like last time, hit them down! ”

Yan Chong paused for a moment and said, "Twenty thousand people are here." ”

Xuan Cheng's expression was shocked.

Ran Ying was also surprised.

20,000 people are menacing, and it is a posture to wipe out the White Tiger Village.

"Who's the commander?" Hyun Sung asked.

"Bazhou is too guarded by Jiang Shun."

Shuzhong is rich in products, and the country of abundance has always been a blessed land. Since Baihu Village is entrenched on the river road of Dongliang Prefecture, it has cut off the passage for Shuzhong products to be transported to Jiankang, and robbed most of the grain and grass products. Chaozhong became more and more dissatisfied with the helplessness of the nearby government against this gang of Jiang bandits, and Xiao Yan finally ordered that Bazhou Taishou Jiangshun poured out of the nest, and it was necessary to wipe out the bandits in Baihuzhai.

There are about 3,000 men and horses in Baihu Village, and confronting the heavily armed officers and soldiers head-on is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. The bandits who got the news gathered in the square of the village, and for a while, everyone was noisy and shouting.

"Why don't we surrender, surrender may be able to live!" It was said.

"Fart!" Another person scolded, "We were all chased by the government to the end of the mountains and rivers to come here, and now we want to surrender?" I'll kill you first! So saying, the man drew his sword and went to slay the man who had said he had surrendered.

"Enough!" Xuan Cheng strode over, heard the quarrel of everyone, and shouted.

The crowd fell silent.

"Yan Chong and I, more than 100 people in the village were killed by the official army, and only the two of us remained. It is impossible to get me to surrender. I'd rather burn the jade with the officials and soldiers and die in this Yangtze River! Xuan Cheng's eyes widened with anger, and his chest rose and fell violently because of anger.

And they all looked at him, but did not speak.

Xuan Cheng glanced at everyone and said, "You came from all over the country to follow me, but you were just begging for a way to live and eat. Now that Baihu Village is in danger, if you want to leave, leave now, I will send you entangled. If you don't want to go, follow me to the death! ”

Look at me, people, and I'll look at you.

Suddenly, a voice erupted from the crowd: "We swear to live and die with White Tiger Village!" ”

The voice spread through the crowd and gradually became a thunderous roar: "We swear to live and die with the White Tiger Village!" ”

Yan Chong said to Xuan Cheng: "We can lure the enemy deep by the reeds on the bank of the river with a group of men and horses, and the others lie in ambush in the reeds. The warships of the officers and soldiers entered the reeds and could not move an inch, and we annihilated them in one fell swoop. So we may still be alive. ”

As agreed, Xuan Cheng and Yan Chong returned to the stockade to prepare to act separately. I saw a thin young man walking towards him, walked up to Yan Chong, and said, "According to your strategy, even if Jiang Shun is destroyed, what if other officers and soldiers come?" Can you still resist it? ”

The two were stunned. The young man's face seemed to be familiar, handsome and elegant, but there was a trace of delicacy in his eyebrows and eyes.

"Ah Ying?" Yan Chong recognized her first.

Xuan Cheng's eyes widened, and he circled around her twice, and was surprised: "Ah Ying, Ah Ying, your men's clothes are not bad." ”

Ran Ying didn't have time to pay attention to their surprise, and asked Zhengse: "Another batch of officers and soldiers, can you still resist it?" ”

Yan Chong was the first to come back to his senses: "What do you mean......?" ”

"The stockade can't be saved, you have to find another way out." Ran Ying was straight to the point.

When Xuan Cheng heard this, he refused: "No! White Tiger Village is run by me and Yan Chong, and it is the foundation of our foothold, how can we say that we will throw it away? ”

Ran Ying met his gaze: "Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood." Since ancient times, bandits have not been able to fight officers and soldiers, and since you have chosen this road, you must have the consciousness of fighting thousands of miles. ”

Yan Chong looked at her without saying a word and looked at her for a long time.

Hyun Sung was also silent. Calm down and think about it, what Ran Ying said is not unreasonable. 3,000 people against 20,000 people is a mortal situation, even if they survive by luck, how to deal with the overwhelming number of officers and troops behind them? After all, it is a dead end.

Xuan Cheng's Adam's apple slid up and down, and he asked, "Are we just so disgraced and fleeing?" Who's going to follow me after that? ”

Ran Ying smiled slyly: "No, we went to copy Jiang Shun's base camp." ”
