Chapter 20: Playing Pang Juan

Pang Juan finished drinking the tea, filled the kettle with water, put the tea money on the table, got up and prepared to continue his journey. Walking to the tree where the horse was tied but not finding the horse, it stands to reason that the place where the horse was tied was not far from the place where he drank tea, and if someone stole the horse, there would be a sound, how could there be no silent horse.

Pang Juan asked the store, and the store said that he didn't pay attention. Pang Juan didn't dare to delay any longer, but fortunately, everything was on his body, so he had to pull his legs and run forward, because of the fast running speed, he brought the billowing dust behind him.

At this time, a handsome young man walked out from behind the tea shed, and looked at Pang Juan, who was running away, hooked the corners of his mouth, and then laughed "haha". The others in the tea shed laughed too.

When he had laughed enough, the handsome young man whistled, and after a while there came a sound of swishing from the woods, and out came a few tall horses, and in addition to a few people riding one more. It was the horse that Pang Juan rode when he came just now.

"Let's go, let's go and wait for him in the town ahead." The handsome young man got on the horse first, then turned back to one of the young attendants and said, "Ah Zhuang, you lead that horse, it will be useful for a while." ”

"Young master, Pang Juan didn't enter the city all the way, he took a detour, will he enter the city this time?" The young man named Ah Zhuang asked.

"He will go to the town to buy horses, but he can't run to Hangu Pass." The handsome young man said with a smile. Several others laughed too.

Pang Juan was tired of running, and finally saw the town in front of him, which had been delayed for several hours, he had to buy a horse quickly, but he couldn't delay the big event, which was a matter of life and death.

It was very lively when I entered the town, just in time for the bazaar. At a glance, he saw a young man selling horses on the corner of the street, and he thought it would take a lot of trouble to get a horse, but he didn't expect it to be so easy.

"How much does this horse cost? I want it. Pang Juan walked over happily.

"I'm sorry, Childe, this horse is not for sale, it is waiting for someone who is destined." The young man replied politely.

Pang Juan looked around the horse and found that it was not a good horse, but a very ordinary adult horse. He looked at the young man selling horses again, could it be that he wanted to trick him, so as to raise the price.

"Don't think I don't know the goods, you horse is very ordinary." Pang Juan said unceremoniously.

"Childe misunderstood, it is indeed an ordinary horse. But not everyone follows. It chooses its own owner. The young man replied calmly.

"It's amazing, I'll try it." As he spoke, Pang Juan walked over and wanted to hold the horse's reins. When the horse saw him approaching, he stepped on his two front hooves restlessly, raised his neck and snorted heavily, not wanting him to lead.

"Big brother, it seems that you are not destined for it, so let me come." A delicate little girl said crisply.

Pang Juan looked at the little girl beside him, dressed in a neat beard, with a pair of big eyes on her round face, very handsome and cute, no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. If you look closely, it is the young man who was hiding in the grass before, and it turns out that he is also a woman disguised as a man.

The little girl walked over, the horse meekly lowered her head, the little girl smoothed the mane on the back of the horse's neck, and the horse took a step closer to the little girl with great enjoyment.

Pang Juan looked at this scene a little stunned, and didn't know how to react for a while.

"Big brother, I see that you like this horse very much, why don't I send it to you when I tame it." The little girl flickered her big eyes and looked at Pang Juan playfully.

Pang Juan lost his mind for a while, and reacted and coughed twice in disguise, "Actually, I'm in a hurry to use the horse." Pang Juan stammered a little.

"Well, then you can hire me and my father to train your horse and take you there. My father is a master horse trainer in the Northland, but ordinary people can't invite him. Pang Juan looked at the little girl and pointed proudly to a middle-aged strong man next to her, proudly praising her father, and found out for the first time that the girl could be so eccentric, playful and cute.

Originally, Pang Juan didn't want this horse to go to the inn to buy another horse to ride, but he actually agreed to it. It took a lot of money to pay for this, not to mention a lot of time. He couldn't figure out what he was thinking at the time, and he began to regret it after walking a little way, because the speed was too slow.

"Girl, the money has been paid to you, and I will go the rest of the way myself." Pang Juan said hesitantly.

"Childe, we Northland people are hard to chase after each other, and we can't do that bad deal. After the spread spreads, we won't be able to mix in the rivers and lakes. The little girl said in the tone of a person from the rivers and lakes, in stark contrast to her delicate appearance, how interesting it is.

Pang Juan was not sure how to answer, when the sound of horses' hooves running quickly came from the official road behind him. Pang Juan escorted the little girl to the side of the official road and explained: "There is a galloping horse behind, let's give way to the side first." ”

After saying that, the two horses galloped past, and after running for a short time, they heard the neighing of the horses, and the two people on the horse tightly held the reins, and the people on the horse exclaimed, "Senior brother." Then he drove his horse back and came back.

The two are Ruyi and Sun Bin, who have not been seen for many days. The little girl looked at the two of them quietly. Ruyi is dressed as a man, wearing a moon-white gown, handsome and elegant, but his age looks young. Sun Bin was dressed in a gray-blue robe, with a handsome face, and a polite bookish atmosphere that immediately attracted the little girl's attention.

"Senior brother, I finally found you, and Master ordered us to come down the mountain to help you." Sun Bin said happily.

"I've seen Senior Brother Pang." Ruyi also said.

Pang Juan thought to himself for a long time in his heart, the master has always been known for his clever calculations, and he must have calculated that he had something to do, so he sent his junior disciples to come, although he was very jealous of Sun Bin and Ruyi, but for the sake of safety, it was better to accept such an arrangement.

"Thank you so much, Master. There are two junior brothers. Pang Juan said politely. Pang Juan turned to the father and daughter and said, "My two junior brothers are here, so I won't bother the two of them to escort them again." Pang Juan thanked the two for their mutual protection. ”

The little girl looked at Pang Juan's big eyes and turned around, and said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then okay." We don't owe each other much money and goods. After speaking, he walked up to Sun Bin, "This little brother, what's your name?" My name is Su Ruiqing. ”

Sun Bin has always been shy and shy, where has he ever seen such a direct, and instantly blushed and stammered: "I...... My name is Sun Bin. ”

The little girl smiled happily and said, "Okay, I remember." We'll see you later. After speaking, he waved his hand at her father, "Dad, let's go." ”

After walking out for a while, the middle-aged man known as Daddy asked, "Young Master, what should I do now if he has more helpers?" ”

Su Ruiqing didn't speak, smiled and took out a waist card from his arms, with an poppy engraved on it. Su Ruiqing shook the waist card in front of the man, "I got it a long time ago." ”

The middle-aged man turned his worries into joy and said happily: "It turns out that the young master has already obtained their token. ”

Su Ruiqing stuffed the waist card back into his arms and said, "It's just that I didn't get the letter." I don't know if Sima Li will believe them. ”

"Then are we going to continue to follow them and wait for an opportunity to bring them?"

Su Ruiqing hesitated for a moment and said, "His two junior brothers are not ordinary people, let's go to the capital of Wei to find senior brothers and see if there is anything we can help with." ”

Besides, the three Pang Juan brothers, the three of them traveled lightly, all the way quickly, and finally arrived at the Hanguguan camp, it was not too late, the army was just ready to go, and it was not out of the camp yet. Pang Juan let out a long breath, he almost missed a big thing, fortunately the master sent his juniors and disciples to help, and he was secretly glad in his heart.

Seeing that General Sima Pang Juan took out the letter to him, he couldn't find Wei Poppy's waist card as a token. Sima Li will be suspicious after reading the letter, the pen style is right, and the wording is no problem, but he doesn't know Pang Juan, and he doesn't dare to easily confirm the authenticity without a token, now that the situation is so critical, it's better not to be gullible.

"It's not that I don't believe in you, it's just that I can't confirm it without a token, I hope you can understand." Sima Li said it politely, but the implication was that he didn't believe it.

Pang Juan didn't know how to explain it, so he could only be in a hurry. "Senior brother, if you look for it carefully, why is the waist card missing?" Sun Bin said anxiously and helped to turn over the burden again.

"Yes, senior brother, don't worry, think about whether you forgot where you put it." Ruyi also echoed.

Pang Juan broke out in a cold sweat, the first time he helped His Highness do something, there was such a big mistake. If you can't find the waist card, the matter will be messed up, and you will definitely die if you go back. He was holding on to his retreat in his heart.

Sima Li looked at the three people who were in a hurry, and sneered in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, "Don't worry about the three of you and look for it slowly, it's just that the army will pull out a lot of affairs to arrange, and I will miss it first." ”

Although the words are polite, there is a taste of irony in how you listen to it.

Ruyi was anxious when she heard this, she knew what it meant for the army to be pulled out, she hesitated a little and stopped Sima Li: "General Sima, wait a minute." ”

Ruyi made a decision, no longer hesitated, walked to Sima Li and stood still, "General Sima, I have a token." As he spoke, he took out a mutton fat white jade pendant of excellent color from his arms, like a waist card, with intricate patterns engraved on it.

Sima Li was taken aback when he saw the jade pendant, and hurriedly made a big salute. Sun Bin and Pang Juan were a little far away and didn't know what to do, why Sima Li had changed so much, and they all came over to see this jade pendant. Sun Bin didn't know this jade pendant, and stood dumbfounded, Pang Juan was shocked when he saw it, and hurriedly dragged Sun Bin to make a big salute.

It turned out that this jade pendant was more powerful than the waist card lost by Pang Juan, and this jade pendant represented the presence of His Royal Highness. Pang Juan had mixed feelings in his heart, he didn't know how Ruyi could have such a valuable jade pendant in his hand, but now it seems that the master asked the juniors to help him.

At this moment, Pang Juan's heart was very depressed...... There is such a big mistake in such a simple matter as sending a letter, and I owe such a big favor.
