Chapter 299: The Battlefield of Previous Years

Under the arch bridge in the gloom, an old couple placed a bunch of offerings on the ground, incense and candles, squatting on the ground, putting paper and money in the fire, the crying sound was made by the old woman, the two looked sad, and they didn't notice that Yang Tianhao and they were already standing not far behind them. Yang Tianhao, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, glanced at Chen Dong and Wei Xiong, and then took the lead and walked towards the two old couples.

"Two old men, paper money is not burned like this, if you do this, the ancestors may not be able to receive it."

The old couple was obviously startled, not knowing whether they were overly sad or thinking that no one would come in such a desolate and dark place, so they stopped talking, and at the same time turned their heads to look behind them, and the person who spoke was a teenager dressed as an ordinary-looking weak scholar, and behind them stood a fat man and a sword-wielding man with a frosty face.

"You...... Who are you? The old man, with dirty white hair, looked at Yang Tianhao and asked nervously.

"The juniors and others are Maoshan disciples, and they happened to pass by here, so don't panic about the two old people." Yang Tianhao hugged his fists and said politely.

The old couple was also very old, and they couldn't talk about being afraid, but a few people suddenly appeared, and they suddenly felt abrupt, and they quickly came to their senses after hearing each other's self-report.

"Young man, are you really Maoshan disciples? I just said that it is useless for us to do this, so how can we do it? The old woman's spirit was obviously a little better than that of the old man, and she spoke sharply and asked Yang Tianhao.

Yang Tianhao and they found here, in fact, the first thing they saw was not the old couple, but the group of wandering spirits who surrounded the fire and looted it, in order not to frighten them, Yang Tianhao also leaned over as if it was nothing, squatting beside the old woman, and doing the same actions with them.

"Old woman, we are indeed Maoshan disciples, and we are here to participate in the merit conference. What I just said is not to say that what you have done is useless, but this practice can only be regarded as a charity to the wandering spirits near here, and it is difficult for your ancestors to receive it. Yang Tianhao threw the paper money in his hand into the fire, his eyes wandered around, and he said calmly.

"Then what can I do so that my ancestors can receive it?" The old woman asked.

Yang Tianhao chuckled twice, did not answer her question directly, but changed the conversation and asked, "Old woman, you are here to worship your ancestors, I guess you should have died under this bridge." Is it really your ancestors? ”

"We worship ......"

"Ahem! Cough! We're done with our business, and it's not too early, so go back, young people. After the old man finished speaking, he packed up his things, and his wife, who was holding him greedily, was about to go back, and everyone could see that the old man deliberately did not let the old woman say any more, it was obvious that there was something to hide, Yang Tianhao did not stop him, he stood up casually, as if he was chanting to the air: "The cold moon shines alone on the rocky beach, and the tiger will never return." Lonely and alive, left to be hollow and keep the moon. ”

The old man's body trembled, his steps sank, he turned his head to look at Yang Tianhao in shock, gasped and said, "How do you know?" Could it be that you are the queen of the Yuan family? ”

Looking at the old man's reaction, Yang Tianhao was more sure of what he thought in his heart, took two steps forward, and said: "Senior, you misunderstood, the younger generation is not a descendant of the Yuan family, but the younger generation was fortunate to have met the Yuan senior five years ago."

"What? Have you seen him? He's alive? Where is he now? The old man was incredibly excited, and he held Yang Tianhao's hand and asked a series of questions.

"Senior Yuan and Ghost Wu are very good, and they are living a life without quarrel with the world." Yang Tianhao said, the expressions on Chen Dong and Wei Xiong's faces changed several times, and finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter, it turned out that he was talking about the people he saw in Lijia Village a few years ago, but what does this have to do with the two old people in front of him? The two of them couldn't figure it out.

"It's great that they're still alive. Young man, if you don't dislike it, please come with me to the humble house. The old man didn't expect to hear this good news in his lifetime, his attitude changed suddenly, he controlled his excited emotions, made a gesture of love, Yang Tianhao and others were not polite, and the old couple left the bottom of the bridge while chatting, during which he learned that the old man's name was Hao Biao. After walking for a while, we stepped into a dilapidated farmhouse, the yard was not big, but it was neatly repaired, a house made of mixed stone seemed to be very old, Hao Biao lit an oil lamp and put it on the stone table in the courtyard, and served a pot of tea.

"I haven't met guests for many years, and I have forgotten the way of hospitality, and I hope to forgive me for a pot of bitter tea." Hao Biao had let down his guard and said enthusiastically.

"Senior Hao is polite, the juniors and others just happened to pass by, and they can't stand the hospitality of the two old people." Yang Tianhao said politely.

Hao Biao poured a full cup of tea and said, "Then the old man is not welcome, is it good for Master Lao Yang to tell me more about General Yuan's recent situation?"

Although Yang Tianhao was still only a soul back then, the situation in Lijia Village was still quite clear, and he probably told Hao Biao, of course, omitting Qiu Yue's marriage, before he finished speaking, the old couple was already in tears.

"Three little masters, the old man has a request, if you still have a chance to meet them in the future, please help me bring a handwritten letter to them, and I hope you don't refuse." Hao Biao said.

"Don't worry, seniors, we can still help with these things, can you tell me what happened to you?" Yang Tianhao said.

"Half of the pen you just read was from my hand, and I estimate that the other half was completed after the general separated from me, since you all know this, General Yuan will not treat you as an outsider, so it doesn't hurt for me to talk about it." Hao Biao was in the dim light, and his cloudy gaze seemed to rekindle the memories of the past years.

"Twenty years ago, the Holy Decree that the war in Chaos Stone City was urgent, and ordered Commander Simon to go to supervise the war, and the traitors in the court were in charge, openly and secretly, and the army was deceitful, and only 500 veterans were pulled out, and the grain and grass were even more pitiful, but the holy decree has been issued, and the father and son of General Yuan took the initiative to ask for help, and took the soldiers of the headquarters to follow in the night when the moon was empty."

Hao Biao paused at this point, drank a cup of bitter tea, and continued: "The old man is General Yuan's follower, and he has followed him for many years, and he treats his subordinates like brothers, so everyone is willing to trust each other with their lives. When we went to the chaotic stone city, we knew that it was already in danger, not the holy decree passed on to commit rebellion, but the neighboring country surrounded the country and the army pressed the border, with our troops at that time was simply a mantis arm blocking the car, before entering the city, the general ordered me to rush back to ask for a slow truth, I quickly whipped along the way, I did not expect to be chased by the enemy soldiers in their own realm, the more this is the case, the more I feel that General Yuan is dangerous, and finally I still live up to the trust, get rid of the chasing soldiers and return to Dali City to meet the saint, When I knew that it was to arrange for General Lan Li to go, I felt bad, he and General Yuan have always been at odds, for the sake of safety, I secretly went to General Yang Ling, his military headquarters is an independent battalion, most of its internal soldiers are composed of Yang family's own soldiers and the children of the Yan family, and Commander Simon has a good relationship, and has many experiences with General Yuan on the battlefield. General Yang Ling was furious when he found out, and personally ordered all the available soldiers under his subordinates to rush to help the battle one step ahead of General Lan Li. ”

Yang Tianhao was shocked in his heart, and he kept thinking about where he had heard the name Yang Ling, and after a while, he reacted, it turned out that he had seen it on the wanted notice of 'Fenglai City', the number one criminal. Seeing Hao Biao crying, Yang Tianhao quietly poured tea for him again, and said, "Senior Hao, don't get excited, speak slowly."

Hao Biao tried to soothe his excitement again, and said: "Originally, I still wanted to go out with General Yang Ling, but I was tired from running around for days, and I was chased by the soldiers, and I had an arrow wound, and finally I couldn't hold on and fell, I don't know what happened during the period, I woke up and it was already five days later, and I stepped out of the tent to know that the whole country was mourning and mourning, Commander Simon had sacrificed his life for the country and died on the battlefield, and General Yang Ling and General Yuan's father and son became rebellious generals and were executed on the spot."

"What? Yuan's predecessors are loyal and treacherous, how can he be a rebellious general? Faint! Chen Dong slammed his hammer on the ground and said angrily.

"Fat Dong, don't interrupt, listen to what Senior Hao has to say." Wei Xiong was also extremely angry in his heart, but he was much better at controlling his emotions than Chen Dong, and put his hand on his shoulder and said.

"I almost fainted again when I heard the news, General Yuan led us to fight for half a lifetime, how I don't know his character, I won't believe anything, General Yang Ling has been a general for generations, and it is impossible to do something rebellious. I was angry and said what Master Chen said just now, but I almost lost my life, and it was the Yan clan who secretly protected me to survive, and then I met Yan Liang from General Yang Ling's old department, and I knew the truth of the matter, and the truth was not what they said."

"Yan Liang told me that night, when the bright moon was in the sky, the city of chaotic stones was attacked, Commander Simon gathered the strength of the whole city, with General Yuan and other subordinates to fight to the death, killing countless enemies, and finally outnumbered, seeing that the city was about to die, at that time, General Yang Ling from the rear of the enemy army to kill to be able to solve the crisis, they converged after the battle until dawn and finally killed out of the siege, did not expect to be ambushed on the rocky beach ten miles outside the city, at that time they were already sleepy and lacking, Changge short sword also became potholes, armor incomplete, All the combined strength has been less than three hundred, General Yang Ling and General Yuan decided to abandon the general guard, the wounded is not light, the body of the commander Simon in the center of the protection, at a great cost to fight out of the encirclement again, at a great cost to fight out of the encirclement again, at that time there are less than fifty generals left, General Yang Ling and Commander Simon rode a horse together, General Yuan father and son with the only remaining troops pressed, all the way to flee, until they saw the military order banner of Li State, everyone settled down, and the enemy soldiers who were chasing after also saw a large number of slow soldiers, and saw the bad and decisive Ming Jin to withdraw the troops.
