Chapter 205: Killing in the Night
In the southwest of Jingling, Zhangshui, frustrated water passes, it is a verdant field, the land here is fertile, the fertile field is endless, the abundant pasture grass points to the green posture, the south of the field, surrounded by mountains, the most abundant place of pasture grass is the Pegasus pasture, there are only two narrow narrow roads running through the inside and outside, the terrain is dangerous, it can be called a natural barrier, the cottage built by the mountain is to have a husband, the momentum of ten thousand people can not be opened.
At this time, on the field, there is a convoy walking slowly, the wind blows through the pasture, and there is a feeling of tranquility gently, the convoy is surrounded by more than 100 riders, wearing black armor, and the tragic momentum on the body is moving, these are the veterans who have died on the battlefield.
"Pegasus Ranch really lives up to its name!" It was a pleasant female voice that spoke, and when the curtain of the carriage was opened, a woman carefully looked at the surrounding scenery, but the most was the topography of the Pegasus Ranch, and thought in her heart: "Such a terrain is the easiest to defend and difficult to attack, and the person who established the Pegasus Ranch back then really had a vision!" The woman's heart admired, and she looked like she had an indescribable style, which was the most heartwarming.
"Xiuning, it's been a bumpy journey, but it's hard for you!" The one who spoke was a man, wearing a brocade robe, and he looked quite handsome, but his body was too weak.
The woman was Li Xiuning, the third lady of Li Valve, and the man next to her was Li Xiuning's fiancΓ© - Chai Shao.
Li Xiuning smiled lightly and said, "The scenery here is beautiful, and I don't feel hard!" Li Xiuning's eyes were blazing as he looked at the Pegasus Ranch, but in his heart he was thinking about how to conquer the Pegasus Ranch if he attacked the ranch. Although she is a daughter's home. But it is the women who do not let the eyebrows be shaved. I like the military the most, and I often have to think about it when I see dangerous terrain.
She had been to the ranch before, but she was still young at the time and didn't have so many ideas, and Shang Xiuxun, the owner of Pegasus Ranch, was a close friend of her boudoir, but she hadn't been in contact for several years, so I don't know how she is now?
Chai Shao didn't know what Li Xiuning thought, but she liked the scenery here. said: "If Xiuning likes it, we can play here for a few days!" β
Li Xiuning frowned, Chai Shao was born in a family of military generals, but his martial arts were mediocre, and now when he said this, he didn't know what Li Xiuning was thinking, and at this time, a burly man came next to the carriage, and immediately a burly man with a long knife hanging from his waist. The man spoke: "Third Miss, but are you thinking about the situation of the pasture?" β
Li Xiuning looked. It was Li Gang, this person was one of Li Xiuning's guards this time, and then he smiled and said, "Xiuning just wants to establish the Pegasus Ranch, the person is an amazing character!" β
Hearing this, Chai Shao came to his senses, remembering the rumors that Li Xiuning would not let her eyebrows, and sure enough, she said: "The Pegasus Ranch here is really amazing...... I wanted to continue, but I didn't know what to say, Li Gang on the side glanced at Chai Shao, and thought in his heart: "The third miss's uncle seems to be not worthy of the third miss, what a good skin is wasted!" β
Li Gang said: "The Pegasus Ranch here was built in the late Jin Dynasty, the first generation of the owner Shang Xiong was born as a military general, in order to avoid trouble, brought his family here, saw that the terrain here is dangerous, so he operated the ranch, established a bunker, here is remote, not a strategic place, so there is not much covetousness, after seven generations of owners operated, gradually became the climate, and this Pegasus Ranch has a precept not to participate in the court and the rivers and lakes in the right and wrong, but the wisdom of self-preservation, out of the matter, so this Pegasus Ranch can concentrate on the surrounding towns to penetrate, There are even guards, but it has become a great force in Jingling! β
Li Xiuning sighed: "Not a brick or tile is natural, the predecessors have a blue thread, and there is the prosperity of Pegasus Ranch today!" β
Li Gang smiled, pointed to the terrain of the ranch and said: "Third Miss, you see, this is surrounded by mountains, the terrain is dangerous, as long as you build fortifications and divide troops to guard, then there is only one road left, you see that the bunker building is built according to the terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is a good place!" β
At the same time, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and when everyone looked at it, they saw the dust in front of them, and everyone couldn't help but be on guard.
Li Gang said in a solemn tone: "Third Miss, be careful! It is said that there are horse thieves in the Jingling area, specializing in robbing passing merchants! "Of course, these caravans all buy war horses from Pegasus Ranch, and they also rob war horses.
"Everyone, be on alert!"
Hearing this, the Xuanjia soldiers had already drawn out their blades, and they were waiting for the battle, and when they were approaching, Li Gang sighed, led by a big man, it was Dou Wei who was sent by Li Xiuning to report, and Li Xiuning looked at the galloping horses, the light in her eyes rippled, she was quite insightful, and saw more than 100 horses galloping behind Dou Wei, and immediately the athletes were extraordinary, and thought in her heart: "These soldiers are really extraordinary!" β
The horse's hooves galloped, stepping on the green grass, splashing the black soil, the sound of the horse's hooves rumbling like thunder, shaking people's ears numb, although it was more than 100 rides, but this power was frightening, not long after, the more than 100 horses had come to the front of the convoy, Dou Wei was next to a one-eyed man, his eyes were blazing, breathtaking, it was the second deacon of Pegasus Ranch Liu Zongdao.
Under the guidance of Liu Zongdao, the convoy walked towards the Pegasus Ranch, Li Xiuning said at this time: "Mr. Liu, I heard that recently, there have been horse thieves in the Jingling area, and many of the war horses in the Pegasus Ranch have been robbed in the wilderness generation, I wonder if there is such a thing in Lu Dao?" β
Liu Zongdao showed a trace of killing intent on his face, and he said in an instant, "It's just a clown jumping off the beam, third miss, please rest assured!" β
Hearing Liu Zongdao's words, Li Xiuning knew that this person was just a hard mouth, so he stopped talking, just looked around, the convoy slowly walked on a gravel paved path, at this time, you can see the majesty of the Pegasus Ranch, the bunker built by the mountain, the momentum is like a monster, it is very terrifying, the drawbridge is put down on the moat, everyone saw two teams of knights on both sides of the bridge, these cavalry are quite strong, holding a torch in their hands, under the firelight Li Xiuning saw a white horse is Ning standing in the center, Above was a heroic female knight, and when she saw Li Xiuning, the woman whispered: "Xiuning!" β
It was the ranch owner Shang Xiuxun who came, she was lonely since she was a child, her personality was quite withdrawn, the merchant was good friends with the Li family, the two daughters had known each other since childhood, and they became friends with handkerchiefs, but over the years, the world has been restless, thieves on the road are everywhere, and the two women have not met for a while, and now when they see it, they can't help but sigh.
Shang Xiuxun smiled, looked at a man beside Li Xiuning, dressed in a brocade robe, looking quite handsome, and said, "Xiuning, who is this?" β
Li Xiuning smiled and said, "This is Linfen Chai Shao!" β
Shang Xiuxun smiled: "Could it be that this son is Xiuning's husband?" β
Li Xiuning's face turned red, but he admitted it, Shang Xiuxun didn't want a joke to be true, just smiled and invited Li Xiuning and the others into the ranch.
Shang Xiuxun set up a banquet to invite Li Xiuning and others, and the banquet was very harmonious, not to mention that Shang Xiuxun and Li Xiuning were close friends in the boudoir, and they hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they naturally talked and laughed.
After talking for a while, Shang Xiuxun smiled and asked, "I don't know what Xiuning is talking about this time?" β
Hearing this, Li Xiuning smiled faintly and said, "My father sent me here this time, just to find out how the horses of our Li family are doing?" β
Shang Xiuxun gently brushed the hair of his sideburns and said, "Your Li family wants that batch of horses will be delivered on schedule, Xiuning can rest assured." β
Shang Xiuxun's action was indescribably flattering, even Li Xiuning couldn't help but stretch for it, not to mention Chai Shao on the side, Chai Shao thought in his heart: "What a stunning beauty!" I don't know if I can get the favor of such a beautiful woman, I am so literary and talented......
After settling down, Li Xiuning opened his mouth and asked, "By the way, Xiuxun, I heard that the Double Dragon Gang once came to your Pegasus Ranch?" β
Li Xiuning was stunned, and said in a daze: "Yes, you also know such a small gang Xiuning?" β
"Hehe......" Li Xiuning smiled bitterly and said, "Little gang? I'm afraid that this Shuanglong Gang is no longer a small gang, and my Li family got the news that Yangzhou City has already fallen into the hands of the Shuanglong Gang. β
"Oh?" Shang Xiuxun was also a little interested, but he didn't expect that the small gang that he didn't look at would have such achievements in such a short period of time, and it was really "three days of farewell and impressing".
"By the way, Xiuxun, the Double Dragon Gang came to your Pegasus Ranch last time, did they also want to buy horses?" Li Xiuning asked.
"Yes, but I didn't sell them horses." Shang Xiuxun replied truthfully.
Hearing this, Li Xiuning secretly thought in his heart: "Could it be that the Double Dragon Gang also has the intention of dominating the world?" β
"Xiuning, don't think about it, I have a new master here recently, you can try his craftsmanship."
Listening to Shang Xiuxun's words, Li Xiuning couldn't help laughing, this Shang Xiuxun likes food the most, and he is an authentic glutton, and then smiled slightly: "Since Xiuxun is invited, then I have to taste everything." β
"Tell the kitchen to serve!" Shang Xiuxun said with a smile.
β¦β¦
The night is like ink, and it is the night when the moon is dark and the wind is high.
Yangzhou has been prosperous since ancient times, in the depths of the courtyard, insects chirp a little, a little candlelight swaying with the wind, as if it is the beauty of the passing years, green grass and dust, next to the stone table under the tree, Lu Wuchen sat quietly, motionless as if thinking about something.
"Master......"
"Helper......
In the shouting, the figures of Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, and Xuxing appeared behind Lu Wuchen, their faces full of inexplicable meaning.
"Alas......"
Standing up, Lu Wuchen sighed and said lightly, "Are they coming?" β
"Yes!" The three nodded.
"Since we're here, we have to entertain people, otherwise we'll be so sorry for their 'kindness'." Lu Wuchen said with a smile, but a cold light flashed in his eyes, and an earth-shattering killing intent erupted.
"Kill ......"
The sound of gold and stone intersecting weapons came, and the sound of killing was heard in the distance...... (To be continued......)
