Volume 1 Don't Use the Hidden Dragon Chapter 36 Disaster
Even after changing his clothes, the prison door that came in a hurry still recognized Zhang Meng at a glance. However, when Li Wei stood up tremblingly with the support of the soldiers on the left and right, Zhang Meng had already taken Cai Yan away.
When the wind was speeding on the main street of Luoyang, Zhang Meng heard Cai Yan's low sigh, and pretended to smile and said, "Zhaoji, do you regret it?" β
Cai Yan said: "No regrets." β
Zhang Meng said again: "Don't you ask me where I want to take you?" β
Cai Yan shook his head: "Don't ask." β
Zhang Meng said again: "The road ahead is full of dangers, are you afraid?" β
Cai Yan's answer was still simple: "Don't be afraid." β
After hearing this, Zhang Meng couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh, and instantly felt that the limbs of his body were full of qi and blood, and his spirit was a hundred times stronger, and he roared at the moment: "Okay!" β
The horse galloped, and soon you could see the Middle East Gatehouse towering in the distance. At the same time, Zhang Meng turned his head slightly to look back, dozens of steps away from him, Dong Zhuo's pursuers were already approaching, and the group rode side by side, like thunder.
Not long after, the middle gate was lined with horses and antlers, and there was a passage for pedestrians to pass through, but it was controlled by the soldiers and horses stationed there. One of the ironclad generals was sitting on the ground, but when he saw Zhang Meng and the cavalry behind him approaching, he raised his head and looked puzzled.
Zhang Meng recognized the other party and immediately shouted: "Zhang Ji, I am ordered by Dong Gong to lead the crowd out of the city!" β
Because of Lu Bu's reminder before, Zhang Ji also had an impression of Zhang Meng, seeing that he was in a hurry at this moment, and he was still followed by his own soldiers and horses, taking the lead as if he really had something important, even if he didn't know what was going on, he didn't stop him, waved his big hand, and signaled the soldiers and horses to give way.
Zhang Meng seized the opportunity and the wind seemed to rush through the city gate sentry post, and he heard Li Dao's thunderous scolding behind his ears: "Zhang Ji, you stupid pig and dog!" Let people go...... "I don't look back, I just care about urging the horse."
After leaving the city gate and continuing to gallop along the official road, Zhang Meng's hanging heart let go of most of it, and looked at Cai Yan, her eyes didn't know whether they were blown by the wind or what, but they were wet and red.
On the way from the Middle East Gate to Hongchi, Zhang Meng found that Dong Zhuo's pursuers did not continue to pursue, and thought: "Shicai is in the city, Li Wei's soldiers and horses are not far from me, if the bow and crossbow are fired indiscriminately, I will never be able to get out, maybe it is because of Zhao Ji, so I dare not act rashly." Then he wondered, "But why did they give up halfway?" Their horses are all carefully selected and well-known breeds, far better than the ones I ride now, and I may not be able to outrun them if I chase them...... Could it beγIs it because of Akihime? After thinking about it, I felt abnormal, but I didn't have a clue for a while, so I put it down for the time being and went to the northeast of Hongchi first.
Recently, the turmoil in the Luoyang Palace has spread to the inside and outside of the city, many people think that the war is coming, they have migrated for refuge, and there are many thieves who fish in troubled waters, take advantage of the situation to plunder, and you can see groups of homeless people who help the old and the young everywhere along the way, full of desolation.
Soon after the reins of the horse were reined, the scene on both sides became more and more desolate, and the people around were extinct, leaving only the sound of wind and crows.
Cai Yan has been silent, Zhang Meng knew that she had a sudden change and her heart was in turmoil, so she didn't say anything about what she didn't have.
Hongchi is surrounded by tall grass, there are few people, and there are no officials and soldiers cruising, Zhang Meng is walking slowly, and his hand has been pressed on the hilt of the sword. Just thinking of this, I heard the sound of rustling in the grass a few steps away.
Zhang Meng was alert, subconsciously drew his sword, and looked over, more than a dozen steps away, several people hugged each other. He stood on his horse and looked closely, and there were four young men opposite, pushing and shoving a white-haired old man back and forth.
The four middle-aged men all wore short brown knee robes and turbans made of coarse cloth, and their clothes were simple, but each of them carried homemade wooden guns and iron knives in their hands, although rough, they could be cut and poked on the skin and flesh of cloth clothes without protective gear, which could also kill and kill people.
When they saw Zhang Meng, their faces were frightened, they looked at each other a few times, and they wanted to retreat to the grass when they pulled Lao Suo back.
Zhang Meng felt something unusual, and immediately shouted: "Slow! "Clamp the horse's belly and rush forward.
The four young men knew that they couldn't run away, so they had to turn around and face Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng reined in his horse again, looked at them three or four feet apart, not to mention the four young men, but only looked at the old man, who was unkempt and miserable, and his steps were vain, and he could faint almost at any time.
"Where are you going to take this old man?" Zhang Meng held his sword and pointed diagonally to the ground, his eyes like a torch.
The four young men were in a state of uneasiness for a moment, and someone replied, "My four brothers are taking my father to see a doctor...... Who is you? β
Zhang Meng said with a smile: "The four of you are different in height, shortness, fat and thinness, but they were born to the same father?" Then he asked the old man, "Old man, are these four your own?" β
Before the words fell, one of the four men said impatiently: "You and I are ignorant of life, it's better not to meddle in things, and leave quickly!" If you delay us and other important matters, don't blame me for not being emotional! As he spoke, he looked at his companion with a fierce glint in his eyes.
Zhang Meng was not afraid, but smiled: "Okay, I want to see how unsympathetic you four thieves and pigs and dogs are." The smile is undiminished, seemingly indifferent, but it is awe-inspiring.
Although there are many enemies in front of them now, it can be judged from the thin size and rough clothing of the opponent that they are all from humble backgrounds without exception, and it is basically impossible for them to receive formal technical training.
A fierce battle was imminent, Zhang Meng clenched the hilt of his sword, wanting to put Cai Yan off his horse first. But at this moment of tension, the afterglow swept behind the right side, and another figure appeared.
Zhang Meng thought that he had been pinched, so he hurriedly tightened his bridle and looked back, but said with a smile: "Brother Shi, you arrived at the right time." "It turned out that Shi Ah came.
The four men on the opposite side noticed that the situation was a little bad, and after a moment of exchanging words, they actually dispersed in an uproar.
Zhang Meng did not pursue, and after dismounting, he hugged Cai Yan off the horse, and on the other side, Shi A turned his back to the old man and turned to the front.
Lao Su thought that he had been tortured and beaten, and his breathing was rapid and uneven.
People who practice martial arts know how to heal their wounds, Shi Ah patted Lao Sue a few times between his chest and abdomen, and gave him a few tugs along the veins, and Lao Suo's state obviously became much better.
Zhang Meng asked Shi Adao: "Brother Shi, how did you escape the pursuit of the official army?" β
Shi A smiled: "The official army is looking for Jun, not me." I went around a few times in Yonghe, blew the trumpet, and led the old leather around a few times, and when I saw that I was about to be surrounded by them, I threw the trumpet into someone else's house. Those old men absolutely didn't think that I was making trouble, so they asked me a few words, searched my body, and found nothing, so they could only let me go. β
Zhang Meng said: "If it weren't for Brother Shi's courage and knowledge, I might not be able to retreat from Luoyang." β
Shi A sighed: "Don't say that, Zhang Jun, it's my luck to be able to relieve your worries." β
The two said a few words, and the old man suddenly shouted: "Help! Help me! β
Zhang Meng only said that the four men and thieves were immortal, and they made a comeback, and subconsciously drew their swords and looked around, only to see that the surroundings were empty, and there was nothing unusual.
Shi Adaa frowned and said, "Old man, those pigs and dogs ran away, what are you shouting nonsense?" β
Lao Suo shook his head and hurriedly said, "Help! Save my father-in-law's life! β
"Your father-in-law?" Zhang Meng wondered in his heart, but at this time, looking at the old man, he was indeed dressed as a vain and servant, "Where is your father-in-law?" β
The old man bowed to the ground, crying and grabbing the ground: "Two strong men will definitely save my lord." My father-in-law just came out of Luoyang, and he didn't want to be targeted by thieves when he walked here. Those four just now are insignificant, and there are two thieves on horseback who chased my lord's chariot! No matter how late, no matter how late, my lord will be in danger of his life! β
Shi Ah muttered to himself: "It's a thief riding a horse again......"
Zhang Meng helped Lao Su up and said with relief: "Don't worry, old man, who is your father-in-law?" β
Lao Su choked up and responded: "Don't hide it from the strong man, my family's surname is Liu, and his name is Dai, who was originally serving in the imperial court, and was recently transferred to Yanzhou to take up his post. This was originally a happy event for the right move, but I didn't expect such a disaster to happen before I left the land of Beijing! β
"Liu Dai?"
When Zhang Meng heard this, he immediately couldn't cry or laugh.
