Chapter 3 The Disaster of the Lu Family
Seeing such a scene, Lu Zhongyuan hurriedly took a step back in fright, and only then did he almost avoid the edge of the two spears. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
"Who is so bold as to dare to come to us to steal something?" asked loudly a man with long hair, holding a spear and pointing at Lu Zhongyuan, who was standing in the room, through the window.
Lu Zhongyuan knew that it was not good, but now he had to find a way to get out, if he alarmed the other people here, it would be really difficult for him to leave again. It wasn't difficult to deal with the two people outside, but what he was afraid of was alarming the others.
"I, I'm passing through here, so I want to rest here for the night. Lu Zhongyuan stammered a lie that even he didn't believe.
"Oh, how did you get in?" the other looked at Lu Zhongyuan with a blank face, not believing what he said at all.
"I saw that the door was not closed, so I came in. ”
"The door is not closed? You're lying, it's locked. ”
"Oh, is it?" Lu Zhongyuan pretended to poke his head out of the window and looked out the door.
"Don't you believe it? You don't believe it, you come out and see, this door is indeed locked, it hasn't been opened at all, how can you get in through the door?" A person withdrew his spear, and then dodged away to let Lu Zhongyuan out. He still doesn't believe it, this door is locked and people can still enter through the door, can they pass through the door?
Lu Zhongyuan jumped out of the window, looked at the door, and then scratched his head and said, "Oh, no! When I came in, the door was still open, why was it locked?"
"Did you jump in through the window? The other asked, pointing a spear at Lu Zhongyuan's chest.
"It should be, the door can't get in, I can only jump out of the window. ”
"So, you're still a thief. The other reacted immediately, and then stabbed Lu Zhongyuan with a spear. And he had already seen the opportunity, and before the spears in their hands could stab, both hands attacked at the same time, knocking the two men unconscious to the ground.
"You are so stupid, how can you still be a bandit?" Lu Zhongyuan shook his head and looked at the two people lying in the place, and then prepared to leave through the gate.
"Hey, who?" At this moment, a polite man came out from the direction of the hall, still holding a fan in his hand, and he looked like it.
"Your uncle. After Lu Zhongyuan said this, he ran away. He tried to keep his voice to a minimum, but he was still heard.
"Come on, come on, chase me. With his shout, four or five more people walked out of the hall, and then picked up weapons such as machetes and chased in the direction where Lu Zhongyuan disappeared.
Lu Zhongyuan ran like crazy in front, while the bandits behind were desperately chasing. He didn't dare to go back to Huzhai directly, so he wanted to go down the mountain through the woods, then pass through the river (a small river branching off from the Dan River), and then take a detour back to Huzhai.
I don't know how long he ran, Lu Zhongyuan couldn't run anymore, and the few people behind him were also thrown far away. In addition, this black and black is still wearing night clothes, and as soon as he hides in a dark place, those people will find him.
Finally got rid of them, Lu Zhongyuan rested on the ground for a long time, and after feeling some strength, he set off again. And now his location is the downstream of the river, and you can reach Huzhai by walking along the river until you turn a corner. It's not that far, but it's not that close.
After walking for a long time, Lu Zhongyuan suddenly heard the baby's cry, and after he stopped, the baby's cry became clearer.
"Wow~Wow~Wow~"
The baby's cry was like a thunderbolt in the silence of the night, and the farther you go, the closer it gets. It wasn't until I was in the grass on the side of the road that I found a baby lying there crying.
The baby was wrapped in a sheet and was not wearing any clothes because he was still young. Because of the baby's calves, the little sheets have been kicked aside, and the whole body is blown in this cold wind.
Lu Zhongyuan walked over and picked up the baby. After he hugged him for a while, the baby's crying stopped, presumably because he thought he was being held by his "mother", so he stopped crying.
Looking at this little guy, Lu Zhongyuan showed a smile on his face, he didn't know whose ruthless parents abandoned their children here. He was also a child who was not wanted by his parents, and he knew how uncomfortable and pitiful it was, and driven by compassion, he decided to take the child home.
After returning to the old man's house in Huzhai, he put the baby on the bed and let him sleep peacefully. And the old man also saw Lu Zhongyuan coming back from outside, and also saw the child in his arms, so he got up and asked where his child came from.
Lu Zhongyuan had no choice but to tell the old man what had just happened, but he didn't say anything about going to Jiaoshan to get back the Spirit Gathering Banner. It's just that whoever went out for a stroll, and when he came back, he found this child, and when he saw that he was pitiful, he took him back.
Hearing Lu Zhongyuan's explanation, the old man didn't say anything. After all, he is also alone, and now that he is old, Lu Zhongyuan still has to go out to work from time to time to fill the family, and he can also watch the children, which can be regarded as being able to pass the time.
The next day, Lu Zhongyuan was woken up by the baby's crying, and after sending the baby to wet the bed, he changed him with a new sheet, and then fed him. Of course, milk is also bought with money, although it is not breast milk, but it is also fresh goat's milk.
When changing the child's bed sheets, he found that there was a piece of paper under the child, and the paper was still written with a brush.
"Lu Su, you have to grow up well. Then avenge our Lu family, remember that you also have a younger brother, his name is Lu Yu. ”
Although such a short sentence was written on the paper, it was like a thunderbolt in Lu Zhongyuan's heart. "Avenge our Lu family", "Avenge our Lu family"......
This sentence has been repeated in his mind, if this child is the queen of the Lu family, then the current Lu family may have already ......
"Daddy, you look at the child, I'll go out. Lu Zhongyuan held the paper in his hand, and then ran out of the door quickly.
And when he came to Lujiabao again, Lujiabao had become a mess, and there was gunsmoke everywhere. Some of the houses were still burning, and some of them had been burned down to the load-bearing walls.
"Why is this happening?" Lu Zhongyuan looked at everything in front of him in disbelief. It's just that in less than ten days, Lujiabao is in ruins as if it has experienced a battlefield at this time.
"Dad, Mom, Brother. Lu Zhongyuan ran to his home, but when he ran to his house, he saw that his parents had fallen in a pool of blood, and his younger brother had been cut in two, and his body was in a different place.
"No, no, no. Lu Zhongyuan burst into tears, who is it? Who is it? Why do you want to kill all the people of the Lu family? We have no quarrel with the world, why do we have to kill them all.
His questions were not answered, and he himself could not give himself an answer. Seeing the dead bodies of his parents, he immediately remembered the patriarch Lu Xiaotian again, and hurriedly ran to Lu Xiaotian's house.
But when he came to Lu Xiaotian's house, his home was not much better than Lu Zhongyuan's home. The five elders of the Lu family died in various places in Lu Xiaotian's house, and Lu Xiaotian also died in the hall. His eyes were not closed, and he sat comfortably in his chair, but he had a long wound in his chest.
"Uncle, uncle. Lu Zhong came to Lu Xiaotian's face, and as soon as he touched him, his body fell to the ground. The entire village of Lujiabao was killed by others overnight, and the only one who survived was the child that Lu Zhongyuan carried back, and maybe another child.
"Tadahara, have you ever thought about being a patriarch?"
"Patriarch? I think, but I'm afraid I don't have the ability. Lu Zhongyuan thought back to all this and recalled the conversation with Lu Xiaotian.
"Haha. What abilities do you need to be a patriarch? As long as you protect what our Lu family should protect, and protect our Lu clan. Lu Xiaotian put his hand on Lu Zhongyuan's little shoulder and said with a smile.
"Protect what?"
"Well, here you go. I'm going to show you something, and it's very important. But don't tell anyone else. ”
"Good. Lu Zhongyuan agreed and followed the patriarch to his house. Lu Xiaotian opened a secret compartment in his room, and there were two bronze boxes inside, and the bronze boxes were very delicate and beautiful to Lu Zhong.
"These two are the soul immortal seal and the body immortal seal, and if you want to be the patriarch, his task is to protect such things, and there is another ......"
Which of the other ones is the Spirit Gathering Flag, but Lu Zhongyuan didn't protect it, but lost it because he slept. After thinking of this, Lu Zhongyuan came to the dark grid again, and opened the dark grid according to the way Lu Xiaotian opened it, and the two immortal seals were indeed still there, and they did not disappear.
Lu Zhongyuan took out the immortal seal, then came to Lu Xiaotian, took out a flag from his arms, and said, "Is this the Spirit Gathering Banner?" I don't know, but I found a flag, Patriarch, see if this is the Spirit Gathering Flag." ”
The flag was slowly unfolded by him, the flag was not very large, but it was embroidered with the word "dragon".
Lu Zhongyuan placed the flag on Lu Xiaotian's face, covering his entire face. Then he returned to Huzhai with the immortal seal.
More than 20 years have passed in the blink of an eye, Lu Su has also grown up, and Lu Yu was also found by Lu Zhongyuan when he was three years old and received him here. He had no children, so these two children must have become his sons and apprentices. Lu Su is not fond of communication by nature, but he is studying hard and hard. The second eldest Lu Yu, who is naturally smart, likes to do something new, and the most important thing is that he is meticulous and meticulous, which has made both of them become funeral mourners.
The old man who accepted Lu Zhongyuan has passed away, and the only thing left is this old house, and the Lu family claims to be the child adopted by the old man, of course, with the surname Hu, but in their own opinion, the surname has not changed. So in order to hide people's eyes and ears, so that people who want to kill the Lu family have no way to know.
"Ahh On this day, Lu Zhongyuan called Lu Yu to his side alone, and then told him, "There is something in our Lu family, which is still lost in the world, and I am afraid that I will not be able to recover it in this life, but you have to find a way to get it back, the name of that thing is - Gathering Spirit Banner." ”
