"Stand down." This sentence was said to Uncle Mu and others, and Uncle Mu didn't dare to disobey, so he only looked up at me worriedly, which implied that I didn't understand. When the door was closed again, Ah Ping's grandfather looked at me with scrutiny: "You have a lot of courage. ”

Hearing this, I shook my head, "I'm not very bold, on the contrary, I've been afraid of you since the last time I saw you." It's just that the truth must be stated, which is a respect for you and the attitude I should have as a junior. ”

He pulled the corners of his mouth, not knowing whether to smile or mock, "It seems that Ping'er has taught you a lot of things, and in just one year, you can go from a village woman to a somewhat far-sighted and talkative." Since I gave Ping'er a question, I will also make your debut, and you will be limited to learn official etiquette with Liu Qing within three months, and if you can pass her level, then someone will be sent to take you back to Beijing. ”

The corner of my eye twitched, and I asked another possibility: "What if not?" ”

He sneered and asked back, "Do you think you can be worthy of Ping'er?" ”

Well deserved! I answered in my heart. When I met Ah Ping, he was a fool, he didn't want anything but a stable and calm, and then he gradually lost his heart in him, from emotion to reality, I don't think I am worthy of him at any point.

But in the eyes of others, I'm afraid this is not the case, they pay attention to identity and background. At first, I never understood why Widow Liu hated me so much, but later I realized that in her eyes, I was not worthy of Ah Ping, so every move fell on her was wrong. At this time, Ah Ping's grandfather asked such a sentence, and he also put me in the dust.

Although Qinggao's retort can retain a trace of dignity, it will also put Ah Ping in a dilemma. He made a pact with his grandfather for me, and now it's just for me to learn some etiquette.

After the thought flipped, I lowered my eyes and promised, "Okay, March will last." ”

Ah Ping's grandfather did not stay long after achieving his goal, but only looked at me deeply for a moment before leaving, leaving a plausible sentence - water can carry a boat and also capsize a boat, hoping that he did not look away.

I didn't think deeply about the meaning of this sentence, because then Uncle Mu was going to arrange for me to leave the capital, and the carriage was still driven by Liu Ming. I asked him how he would explain to Ah Ping, and he said that the master had his own way to stop Ah Ping.

Yes, even if Ah Ping is talented and intelligent, he may even be the top student in high school, but how can he really disobey his grandfather? And with his grandfather's old calculations, Ah Ping's Taoism is probably too shallow.

On the way back, I was a little lonely and lonely, this farewell will take at least three months, I have learned the methods of widow Liu, this time she came on the order of Ah Ping's grandfather, I am afraid that she will really torture people to death, and the next three months will really not be too easy. What made me even more uncomfortable was that Ah Ping didn't know that I was leaving, and if he came back from the temple examination and found that I had gone to the empty building, how sad it would be.

It is said that since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been in a dilemma, and now it is a choice between filial piety and love. I never wanted to force him to give up his filial piety, he was a good boy who was benevolent and filial, so whether it was out of helplessness or something else, let me take this step for him first.

It was a long journey from the capital to Xinghua Village, and Liu Ming would not come to talk to me deliberately when he was driving, so I lay down when my butt hurt and fell asleep in a daze after a while.

This sleep was very deep, and the dreams that had not come for many days seemed to be entangled again. In a daze, I seemed to hear the soldiers in my ears, as if someone was hammering an iron, and wanted to open my eyes to see what was going on. When I opened my eyes, it was pitch black, and after a moment of confusion, I realized that it was already night, and that the carriage was parked. What's that sound outside?

I opened the curtain and was shocked by the scene in front of me: the carriage was surrounded by several men in black, each holding a sword, and Liu Ming in front of the carriage was covered in blood, and there were several men in black at his feet.

This is...... Did you meet a bandit? Have I really fallen into eight lifetimes of mold, I can meet thieves everywhere!

At the moment, it seems to have become a stalemate situation, and a group of people must have rushed over to hijack the carriage, but they were knocked to the ground by Liu Ming one by one, so the rest of the people did not dare to act arbitrarily. It's just that I don't know if the blood on Liu Ming's body is the enemy's or his?

Although he has relatively nothing to say to Liu Ming, firstly, he is Ah Ping's person, and secondly, he was the one who arranged to go to Beijing and arrived in the capital before he came, so he never wanted him to have an accident. Suddenly, someone shouted: "Leave him alone, hijack the carriage!" ”

Several pairs of eyes shot at me at the same time, and my heart was cold, and these people all looked like they had a knife in their eyes.

Liu Ming suddenly retreated to the carriage, leaned against the curtain of the door and said in a low voice: "Madam, I will escort you out of the carriage later, you find the right time to run." "I will not be pretentious to ask him such a stupid question as to deal with it, for I have seen stabs on his back and waist so closely, and I am afraid that his blood may be both enemy and his own, and that he will not be defeated by one enemy, and that there is really no need for me, a helpless woman, to worry about his safety.

At least if I escape, he will be able to protect himself.

So I replied in a deep voice, "Okay." "In the carriage, the hem of the skirt of the skirt is lifted to the waist and tied up, so that you can spread your legs when you want to run for a while. Someone had already attacked, but Liu Ming blocked it with a knife, and I took this opportunity to jump out of the carriage and hide behind him. While fighting and retreating, he gradually left the range of the carriage, the surrounding environment was very unfavorable, not only was the desert uncovered, but also the bright moon and bright moon tonight illuminated the dark night very brightly, and it was difficult to hide by the night.

Liu Ming suddenly rushed out fiercely, the big knife in his hand slashed fiercely, and also opened a way for me, I didn't think about getting out of that gap and running away.

The shouts behind him gradually moved away, but there were footsteps chasing after him, and he didn't dare to look back, so he could only desperately panic and flee. But men are only stronger than women in terms of physical strength and endurance, and not long after I ran out, my legs felt weak, and one leg staggered forward and fell and rolled, and when I raised my head, I saw a dark shadow that had rushed in front of me.

A cold gaze swept over me, and the next moment I saw a flash of silver light, and the long sword pierced straight into my heart.

Poop! The sword that pierced my heart actually flew out, and at the same time as it hit the ground, a dark shadow swept in front of me, and I didn't have time to see it clearly, only to hear a snort, and the man in black who was supposed to kill me fell to the ground with his eyes protruding, and he was already angry.

I looked up in horror at the shadow in front of me, tall enough to obscure the moonlight above my head. When he turned around, my eyes widened and widened, "Lu Feng? ”

I couldn't believe that I would meet Lu Feng and be rescued by him when he was being chased and killed in the middle of the night.

He lifted me up from the ground and said in a low voice, "This place is not suitable for a long time, come with me first." As he spoke, someone seemed to catch up in the darkness in the distance. I followed Lu Feng and walked quickly, I should have seen that I was walking slowly, he turned around and said, "Offended", he wrapped his arms around my waist and lifted me half, almost half-hugging me and walking in the night.

At this time, it was impossible for me to say anything about whether men and women were intimate or not, although I was puzzled, I felt a lot more relieved to have him appear. I thought he was going to take me away from the pursuit, but when I didn't want to hide into the woods, a group of people rushed out and shouted to kill and passed us behind us. Only then did I suddenly realize that Lu Feng was taking me to lure the pursuers here and then counterattack.

What followed was a one-sided situation, and only two people caught up with them, and they were frightened by the formation of a group of bandits rushing out, and they were caught and tied up with no room for resistance.

Thinking of Liu Ming, I turned around and grabbed Lu Feng's sleeve and said, "There is another person who is surrounded in the direction I ran from, you quickly send someone to rescue him." Lu Feng looked down at my hand, and when he raised his head, his eyes were bright: "Okay." ”

When someone lit a torch to illuminate the woods, I realized that Liu Ming had already sent me home in a carriage, and the place where I was surrounded by the man in black was not far from Lu Feng's cottage. A few days ago, the people in Lu Feng's village noticed that a group of suspicious people had come nearby, and they suspected that they were sent by the imperial court to suppress the bandits, so they had been secretly staring. Originally, tonight, Lu Feng led a group of bandits to ambush near the woods, intending to ambush this group of people, but unexpectedly, they bumped into me first and were hunted down.

I also know what happened next, when Lu Feng recognized me, he immediately came to the rescue, and planned to lead the pursuers to the woods, and then take them down in one fell swoop. The people sent to rescue Liu Ming soon returned, but they reported that they had not seen anyone else, and Liu Ming had disappeared except for a few corpses on the ground.

Lu Feng pondered for a moment and came to look at me: "I'm afraid it's not safe for you to go home alone, come back to the cottage with me first." ”

It seemed that this was the only way to do it for the time being, and I nodded silently. Add the "micro" and "letter" number (X'S'M'9'0'0'0'1'0) free of charge to read' the book, the "small" and "more" fine "small" said

After leaving for just over 20 days, I felt a great change when I returned to the mountain, the original grass hut was gone, and everyone gathered in the cave. Only then did I remember that there was a fire in the mountain when I left that night, and I later learned that Ah Ping had brought someone to save me, and the fire was obviously set by Uncle Mu. So the original huts were burned down, and the bandits had no place to live, so they all moved to the cave where they used to perform their rituals.

However, some of the original burned grass huts are being built with stone huts, and some of them have begun to take shape, and it is expected that the stone huts will replace the original grass huts in the near future. I watched them put the two black-clothed men they caught in the cell, and turned around to ask Lu Feng what to do, and he said that someone would interrogate the identities of the two people, and he wouldn't show me how to interrogate.

After all, I didn't say goodbye when the fire broke out in the mountains that night, so I couldn't help but feel embarrassed when the two of us were alone.

It was Lu Feng who broke the silence: "Where have you been lately?" ”

It's not a secret to go to the capital, and I was about to open my mouth to answer when he suddenly said, "I've looked for you." The words that reached his throat could not be said again, and he looked away awkwardly from his gaze.

"When I rushed back to the stone house that night and saw that it was empty, I knew you were gone. But then I still went to your village to inspect it, but I never saw you. ”

"I ...... I accompanied my father-in-law to Beijing to catch the exam. ”

There was silence for a while, and after a while he said, "Since you are fine, I am relieved, but since you went together, why didn't he come back with you?" ”

"I have an exam today, and there may be some other things in the future. It's been more than 20 days since I was away from home, and no one at home has been bad for a long time, so I came back first. "Regarding the problem given by Ah Ping's grandfather, there is no need to tell Lu Feng. But I must thank him for tonight: "I am grateful for your rescue tonight." ”

"It just happened that there was no reason not to make a move, not to mention that my life was also saved by you, if there was no you, there would be no Lu Feng for me."

That was true, but I knew in my heart that I was far less important than he had said, and at best I had dragged him into the cave to avoid the rain, and had given him medicine and food afterwards. I don't know how to heal, and if he doesn't have tenacious vitality, that medicine is not enough to help him survive this life and death. If he was the culprit who was caught in the thieves' den last time, and then he saved me from the leader's attempt to insult me, I could still feel at ease, but this time I can't say it.

There was a knock at the door, and the man reported aloud outside: "Chief, those two people have been recruited." ”

Lu Feng walked over and opened the door to let people in, it was the burly man Xiong Yi, who didn't look at me and said directly to Lu Feng: "They are not sent by the government, but killers." ”

"Who are they going to kill?" Lu Feng frowned and asked.

Xiong Yi looked at me, "I said that I killed this woman, because I was not sure of her return date, so I came to guard near our territory first." ”

Kill me? How can it be? Lu Feng looked back at me and asked Xiong Yi again, "Can you confess to whom?" ”

"No, it's just that it was arranged by the superiors."

Lu Feng drank coldly: "It takes so many people to kill a woman? Do you use your brain? ”

Xiong's face changed, "I'll torture you again immediately." After speaking, he turned around and strode away, and he could still hear him scolding in his mouth: "Damn, dare to deceive Lao Tzu, I'm impatient." ”

Lu Feng closed the door, turned around and asked, "Who did you offend in the capital?" ”

I was stunned for a moment and grasped the key to his words: "Why do you think you are from the capital?" He reversed his hand and analyzed as he walked: "Even if you have a grudge with someone and want to take revenge on you before you go to the capital, it is impossible to find a killer." ”

"Are those people really killers?"

"Whether it is a killer or not is still to be determined, judging by his skills, he is not weak, and he is very actionable."

"Couldn't it be a bandit like you?" After saying that, Lu Feng's eyes inexplicably made me feel weak, wouldn't it be rude to classify him as a thief? But he's already the head of the bandits.

Huang Shen heard Lu Feng's denial: "No, their actions are very restrained and disciplined. ”

Is that so? Recalling the process between opening his eyes and finding that there was something unusual outside the carriage to being rescued, it seems that Lu Feng has a point. The obvious comparison is that although these bandits led by Lu Feng are also brave and cruel, their personalities are arrogant and arrogant, unlike those people in black who have rules when they surround Liu Ming, and they are silent when they chase me.

If you deny that they are thieves, you will also veto chance, is it really a killer? It's unbelievable to think about it, I'm just a village woman, why would I use a killer to kill me?
