Chapter 108: Snatching a Horse
After Li Qingzhu got off the horse, he walked to the scholar, helped him up from the ground, and asked in a harmonious voice: "Brother Tai, there is no Kan'er who can't get through this life, why are you crying and crying here, dignified and manly, being this little daughter, just adding to the laughing stock." ”
When the scholar saw that Li Qingzhu was very angry, and he said that the light cyan robe, and the green bamboo that they had as sacred objects as sacred by their scholars, his good feelings increased greatly, and he was not very defensive against Li Qingzhu in his heart, so he confided in his heart.
"Brother Tai doesn't know, since my family is poor, my father and mother finally saved ten taels of silver for me to go to Beijing to catch the exam, but before I left Guangdong, I was robbed by the bandits who killed me. How can I go to Beijing to take the exam without money? But if I go home like this, what will I take to see my father, this is not in, this is not retreat, how is it good, how is it good!! ”
This scholar spread his hands, sighed, and when it came to zuihou, even beating his chest and feet could not relieve the depression in his heart.
Li Qingzhu also knew that students like them had put their life's hopes on the imperial examination, and they would be determined for life at a time, even if they had participated in the imperial examination, their value would increase a lot.
Li Qingzhu is actually not a good person, if it is usual, he will just throw a sum of money to this student. However, this person's very familiar appearance made Li Qingzhu feel familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.
Under such a psychological effect, Li Qingzhu said to him: "That's it, anyway, I also have important things to go to the capital, if you don't mind, how about I escort you there?" ”
After hearing this, the scholar looked at Li Qingzhu in surprise and said, "You? Brother, it's not that I look down on you, there are more than a dozen bandits, you ......"
Li Qingzhu didn't wait for him to finish speaking, he stomped on the ground hard, the ground suddenly trembled, and the scholar almost fell to the ground without standing firmly.
After he grabbed Li Qingzhu's arm and stood firm, he took a closer look at Li Qingzhu's feet and found a crack!
This is an official road, an official road that has been crushed and tamped more than ten times.
Li Qingzhu actually stomped the crack of the official road with one kick, is this the so-called master of the rivers and lakes?
Suddenly, this scholar suddenly looked at Li Qingzhu like an idol, and his eyes almost burst into stars.
"Okay, okay, don't look at me like that, get on the horse."
Li Qingzhu helped the scholar to get on the horse, and then put his books on the back of the horse and rode on, this scholar was thin, although the two of them rode together, it was not too crowded.
The horses chosen by his steward were not afraid of the weight of these two men, and he carried them and a basket of books to the distance again.
"By the way, Brother Taigao's surname?"
The scholar was very grateful to Li Qingzhu at this moment, so he asked in a loud voice,
"My name is Li Qingzhu, what about you?"
"My name is Zhao Yong, Brother Li, you are really Zhao's nobleman, if it weren't for you, I would have read it in vain in the past ten years."
Zhao Yong was so excited that tears were about to come out,
"I also see your kind face, as if I've seen you somewhere, by the way, where is your hometown?"
"I'm from Taihe Town, Guangdong Province."
Li Qingzhu was stunned for a moment, Taihe Town? Then he smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I have a friend who is also from Taihe Town." ”
Speaking of this, the corners of his eyes were a little moist, but Zhao Yong was in front of Li Qingzhu and didn't see it.
Zhao Yong and Li Qingzhu were chatting, talking and talking, Zhao Yong suddenly found that the two had deviated from the official road, Zhao Yong hurriedly said: "Wrong, wrong, Brother Li, you are wrong!" ”
Li Qingzhu stopped his horse and asked with a chuckle, "Wrong?" That's right. ”
"It's wrong, we should take the official road, you have deviated from the official road for several miles."
Zhao Yong pointed to the faintly visible official road on the left hand side and said to Li Qingzhu, Li Qingzhu glanced sideways, then dismounted, and said to Zhao Yong: "You stay here, I'll do something." ”
"Huh! Brother Li, this barren mountain and wilderness, bandits are flowing, what do you have to do here? ”
Zhao Yong stretched out his hand to Li Qingzhu in fear and said,
"Do you think the two of us are riding a horse to Beijing? If you go to the city, others will see you and me riding a horse together, they will think that you and I are good at Longyang, and I can't afford to lose this person. ”
Li Qingzhu glanced at Zhao Yong angrily, and then continued to march up the mountain.
"Brother Li! So, where are you going to find a horse? ”
"Of course it's looking for bandits, you wait, don't run around, if you are found by bandits or eaten by fierce beasts, I don't care."
Li Qingzhu's voice became smaller and smaller, and gradually, Zhao Yong could no longer hear Li Qingzhu's voice, let alone see his figure.
Zhao Yong rode on his horse and looked around, the silence of the woods made him feel like he was surrounded by malice.
"Bodhisattva bless, Bodhisattva bless, must be safe, must be safe."
Zhao Yong folded his hands and whispered, he couldn't see that he was still a believer in Buddhism.
I don't know how long he was reading, suddenly, a rustling sound sounded, Zhao Yong was startled, and almost fell off the horse, he looked around vigilantly, guarding against something that suddenly came out.
"Da Da Da"
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and Zhao Yong's heart also beat with the sound of horses' hooves, and as the sound of horses' hooves became louder and louder, his heart was about to jump out of his throat.
Immediately afterwards, as soon as the shouting sounded, Zhao Yong's face immediately changed, and the sound of horses' hooves coupled with the shouting sound, isn't this a symbol of bandits?
Thinking of this, he wanted to cry, this was just robbed once, is this going to be robbed again?
"Haha, brothers, look, it's an old acquaintance."
A tall horse jumped out, and a bandit with a meaty face and a fat-headed and big-eared machete in his hand sat on the horse and laughed.
Out of the surrounding grass also came a group of bandits with bad intentions.
"Hey, that scholar, haven't you been robbed by us? Want to come again? The bandit leader leaned forward and looked at Zhao Yong and asked funny.
It's really funny, I robbed this guy not long ago, and it didn't take long for him to run into his nest.
"You...... Don't mess around, I warn you, there is a martial arts master by my side, if he comes back, you will definitely not be able to eat, go around! ”
Zhao Yong trembled and said cruel words, but those bandits wanted to laugh when they heard it, and the bandit leader looked up to the sky with an exaggerated smile: "Haha, master? What a master called it out for me to see! haha。 ”
He opened his mouth wide and looked up to the sky, and suddenly a black shadow fell from the sky, kicking the mouth of the bandit leader, the force was so strong, he directly kicked the bandit leader's teeth to pieces, and also kicked him to death at the same time.
Li Qingzhu landed on the tall horse of the bandit leader, looked around at the little bandits around him, and said in a cold voice: "If you are not afraid of death, you can come up and try!" ”
The minions looked at the tragic death of the bandit leader, and their whole mouths were kicked to pieces, which was terrified, which intensified their panic, and they quickly turned around and ran.
This comes and goes as fast as it goes.
Li Qingzhu sneered, then rode a horse and approached Zhao Yong, looking at his happy appearance for the rest of his life, and asked funny: "Brother Zhao, you won't be scared to pee your pants, right?" ”
"Brother Li! Please don't insult me like that! ”
Zhao Yongsheng blushed, looked at Li Qingzhu angrily and said, but his powerless appearance, this staring appearance, is not convincing.
Li Qingzhu waved his hand and said indifferently: "Okay, okay, don't talk about it, come, put your luggage on this horse." ”
Zhao Yong did as he said, and in the process, he asked curiously, "Brother Li, didn't you go up the mountain?" How did you come down so quickly? ”
"Huh? Are you really going up the hill for me? I kept you here to lure the bandits to the bait, and I've been in the tree above you, but you haven't noticed. ”
Li Qingzhu explained casually, but he didn't see Zhao Yong's increasingly dark face.
"So my value is just a bait?" Zhao Yong looked at Li Qingzhu's back with a dark face,
"Well, you can't say that." Li Qingzhu turned his back to Zhao Yong and sorted out his luggage, and said, "You are much more useful than bait, at least you can still talk, and accompany me on the way to relieve my boredom, haha." ”
"Brother Li!!"
