Chapter 90: Dishan Rescues
Wei Yangyang saw him laughing and looking himself up and down, a little embarrassed. She hurriedly ran to the eaves and stretched out her hand to hold some flood water to wash away the dirt on her face. However, the flood was full of mud, and the water was muddy, but the more it was washed, the dirtier it became. She saw that Shen Mingyuan was still looking at herself and laughing, and she was a little flustered: "I haven't washed my face, have I?" ”
Shen Mingyuan was already on his mind, and he returned to his old hippie smile: "No, what are you panicking about?" Wei Yangyang refused to admit it: "Who, who is panicking?" ”
Since the two met, Shen Mingyuan had never seen her care about her appearance like now, and felt more and more funny: "Okay, okay, don't wash it." I've seen you rolling around in the desert covered in dust, I've seen you kill people without blinking, I've seen you learn to skate and you fell a dozen times in a row, and I've seen you wait for me to feed you the day before yesterday in the Chenghuang Temple. I've seen all of your ugliest looks, what makes a difference if you wash your face or not? ”
All he said was his ugly appearance when he had no image, and Wei Yangyang was even more embarrassed after hearing it, and nervously raised his fingers to gnaw his nails. Shen Mingyuan hurriedly stopped her: "Your hands are dirty, don't gnaw them." She had to put her hand down again. Shen Mingyuan put away his smile and said to her solemnly: "Yangyang, when you and I first met you the year before last, we changed a lot. Back then you were like a naughty boy, but now, more and more,"
Suddenly, a big wave hit and interrupted his words, and the second half of the sentence "More and more like Princess Qinghe" didn't have time to say. Wei Yangyang heard the sound of the waves coming, jumped up, and lay on the eaves to check. She could barely see through the night that the flood had risen from the position of two bricks at the bottom of the house to three turns, so she hurriedly called Shen Mingyuan: "Your Highness, the flood seems to be rising!" When Shen Mingyuan heard this, he also leaned over, and he watched as the flood rose two bricks and stones in a short period of time: "It's not good, it's the Yellow River that bursts!" ”
He has been supervising water conservancy construction for many years and is very familiar with flooding. can rise so fast, except for the Kaifeng section of the Yellow River, nothing else is possible. "How so, how so!" He couldn't believe it, and his mouth couldn't stop reading. Obviously, the rain has decreased in the past two days, why is the most important Yellow River breaking its embankment?
Ling Quan and the guards didn't dare to disturb them talking, but seeing this situation, Ling Quan hurriedly persuaded him: "Your Highness, while the water level of Hongfeng is still low, we have to quickly withdraw to Kaifeng Mansion." Shen Mingyuan refused: "No, Li Shilang went a day earlier than us, he is still on the embankment, and he must be rescued." ”
He is usually easy-going, and rarely has been so paranoid. Wei Yangyang was puzzled: "Who is that Li Shilang, and it is worth His Highness to risk to save him?" "Li Zheng, the left attendant of the Ministry of Industry, is a good hand at repairing water conservancy, and Shen Mingyuan is reluctant to let him drown in vain. But the flood is ruthless, and he must make a decision early, he didn't have time to explain more to Wei Yangyang, so he only said: "Li Shilang is nicknamed "Little Li Bing", and he must be saved. ”
He only told Wei Yangyang the story of Li Bing's repair of Dujiangyan yesterday, and now he said that Li Zheng is the little Li Bing, and the other party immediately understood the importance of Li Shilang. Wei Yangyang tugged at his sleeve: "I can swim, I'll go to save Li Shilang, Your Highness will go back to Kaifeng first, okay?" Shen Mingyuan was about to reveal his heart to her, but was interrupted by a sudden flood, how could he let her go into danger alone: "No, if you want to go, go together." ”
Wei Yangyang's expression was a little helpless and a little moved: "Okay, when we fight, our Wei family army advances and retreats together. The two of them stood up together, climbed down the house first, and prepared to go around the hill to the embankment, which would take some time, but be safer. The mountains are winding and rugged, and this is the time for Wei Yangyang to show his strength, she pointed to the map and said to Shen Mingyuan: "Originally, we can reach it by walking on the dirt road for another day, but if we climb the mountain, it will take three and a half days." But if you pass through here, it only takes a day and a half. ”
The "here" she said was the highest mountain in the mountain range. Passing directly through the Di Mountain can shorten the time by half, but the mountain is difficult to walk, and it is by no means suitable for Shen Mingyuan, who grew up pampered. But in order to save Li Shilang, he still agreed to the plan proposed by Wei Yangyang: "Okay, let's go over here." He made a quick decision and prepared to leave immediately. Wei Yangyang was silent, carefully rolled up the map and put it on his body, and suddenly stretched out a palm and attacked his neck!
Although Shen Mingyuan's martial arts are not high, he is a tall and big adult man, and if you talk about brute force, it is not that you can't beat Wei Yangyang. But she suddenly attacked, and the other party was defenseless, and she was knocked unconscious under one palm. Ling Quan was startled, not knowing why she was crazy. Wei Yangyang helped Shen Mingyuan and instructed Ling Quan: "What are you still doing in a daze, call a few people to come over and carry His Highness back to Kaifeng." ”
Since Wei Yang rescued Shen Mingyuan and Ling Quan in the desert, Ling Quan knew that she was murderous and had always been afraid of her. Later, when she came to Huadu, Ling Quan could see that she was King Qinghe's sweetheart, so he didn't dare to offend her. Now that she was commanding, Ling Quan didn't dare to disobey it, so he hurriedly called a strong guard to come, and walked back with Shen Mingyuan on his back.
After the disaster, the number of hungry people increased, and the road was not quite peaceful. Wei Yangyang took off the jade pendant on his body and handed it to Ling Quan: "If you see the Wei family army on the road, take this jade pendant to ask for help, and say that you want to see General Wei, and they will know that it is my token at a glance." Wei Bingji led the troops to maintain order outside Kaifeng City, and she came with the sixth brother. She informed Ling Quan in detail of Wei Jiajun's password and stationing location, and asked him to keep it in mind.
Ling Quan was a little worried about her: "Miss Wei, what should you do then?" Wei Yangyang glared at him: "Of course I went to save that Li Shilang." What does he look like, you can tell me quickly. Ling Quan told Li Zheng about his height and appearance, and Wei Yangyang repeated it twice to check with him to make sure that nothing was missed, and then turned around and walked in the direction of Dishan.
She has been running around in the desert and Taiping Mountain since she was a child, and climbing the mountain is like walking on the ground for her. However, it rained heavily for several days, and the rocks were very slippery, and there were still many dangers on this trip. Coupled with the continuous rain and no sunrise all day, it is difficult to discern the direction, and it is easier to go wrong. Fortunately, checking the map was a skill she learned before she could walk, and she relied on the map to find the way to the embankment accurately.
After she walked for a day and a night, she was not far from the embankment, but she inadvertently bumped into a ticket kidnapping case. It seems that the mountain bandits took advantage of the chaos to rob and kidnap a person who looks like an official. On weekdays, she would have to take care of this idle matter, but now that it is important to save Li Shilang, she has to continue to move forward ruthlessly. She was about to leave quietly, but she heard the hostage begging the kidnappers: "Please let me go, I must go back to Kaifeng Mansion now." Otherwise, if the embankment is not reinforced, there is a danger of a second breach, and hundreds of millions of Li people will be affected by the disaster. ”
When he said about the embankment, Wei Yangyang's heart moved, and she hurriedly changed her position to see the person. That man had a sparse beard and a pair of attractive ears, although his appearance was not good, he was the appearance of Li Shilang described by Ling Quan! Wei Yangyang lay down again, depending on what the kidnappers said. A man who looked like the king of the mountain threatened Li Zheng: "If you write a letter to your family, as long as your family sends five hundred taels of silver, we will release him immediately." Li Zheng was still begging the man: "Five hundred taels is not much, you can send someone and me back to Kaifeng Mansion to get it." But time waits for no one, I hurried to find someone to repair the embankment, if I can block the breach in time, it is a good thing for the benefit of all people, and it will accumulate virtue. ”
Wei Yangyang felt funny in his heart, how could this Li Shilang be the same as Yu Jingxian, and he didn't understand the world at all. What are you talking about with these kidnappers? If they have a conscience, will they go up to the mountains and become bandits? Could it be that the people in the Ministry of Industry are so stupid? She counted carefully, and there were twenty-one people on the other side. She has a small crossbow and a dragon on her body, and it is not difficult to break the other party one by one. But the difficulty is that Li Shilang doesn't know kung fu, what if the mountain bandits hurt him? He had to be kept safe first.
Wei Yangyang thought for a moment, first hid the German knife, and then changed places, pretending to have just walked up from the foot of the mountain. The bandits soon spotted the girl who had fallen from the sky and blocked her way. Wei Yangyang pretended to be scared, looked left and right, and when he saw Li Zheng, he shouted: "Uncle Li Shi, you haven't been back for a few days, and Lu Gongzi from Baocheng Lane asked me to look for you." "Baocheng Lane is the address of Qinghe Palace. Li Zheng saw that she could say her surname and Baocheng Lane, and knew that she must be a member of the Qinghe Wang faction.
He was frightened for a day, and finally saw his own people, so he calmed down and asked Wei Yangyang: "These heroes are short of some silver, and we need to lend them temporarily, do you have them with you?" Wei Yangyang shook his head: "I came in a hurry, and I didn't bring any money, only alone." When Li Zheng heard this, his heart sank. She is a girl's family, and she has no foreign aid, and she came to this mountain bandit's nest, which is like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger. He pretended to be angry: "Why did you come to me without any money?" Then you go back to Kaifeng Mansion and take the silver taels and come back again. ”
Wei Yangyang plucked a hairpin from his head and deliberately shook it in front of the mountain bandit: "I don't have any silver, but I have some jewelry, I don't know if this will work?" Although she doesn't like to wear expensive jewelry on weekdays, she is the daughter of the general army after all, and what she wears is still much better than ordinary people. The hairpin was not particularly valuable, but it was worth more than a hundred taels of silver. The mountain bandits have not tied up such a fat person for a long time, and their hearts are happy.
Wei Yangyang took off the bracelets and earrings on his body again, put them on the ground, and discussed with the leader of the mountain bandits: "These add up to about more than eight hundred taels of silver, I wonder if I can exchange them for my uncle?" When the leader saw that although she was covered in mud, she was a very beautiful girl, and an evil thought suddenly arose in his heart: "You came here, and you still want to leave?" ”
Wei Yangyang continued to bargain with him: "My uncle is old and can't stand the toss. Otherwise, I will stay here for him, and let him go back to Kaifeng Mansion to gather some more silver and send someone to send it. If you wait two more days, you'll get a thousand taels more, okay? For the mountain bandits, one thousand taels is by no means a small amount. The leader saw that she and Li Zheng were both dressed well, and they thought that they were from rich and noble families. And an old man and a young girl are powerless, what can go wrong? Although she is beautiful, what kind of girl can't find if she takes an extra thousand taels of silver? The leader agreed to her almost without a second thought.
She made another small request: "I want to send my uncle to the mountain pass and come back, I don't know if I can." Her voice was crisp and generous, and it was not too much to ask, and the leader naturally agreed. She stood up and slowly walked to Li Zheng's side, untied the rope on his body for him, and helped him walk down slowly. Wei Yangyang whispered as he walked, "Li Shilang, His Highness sent me. When you go to the big square rock, you hide behind it and don't come out. Li Zheng was very worried: "What about you, girl?" You are soft and weak, how can you get out? Hearing him say that he was "soft and weak", Wei Yangyang couldn't help laughing: "Li Shilang, don't worry, I am a member of the Wei family's army, and I have my own way to level the mountain bandits." ”
Li Zheng has been busy in several prefectures near Kaifeng for more than half a month, and knows that the Wei family army is outside Kaifeng City. Hearing her say this, I was relieved and said that I would do what she asked. Wei Yangyang sent him to the square boulder, then turned around and walked towards the mountain bandits. She secretly observed, and saw that this group of mountain bandits was quite organized, twenty-one people stood in five places, and they had to find a way to get them together.
She got closer and closer, and was only one step away from the first bandit. Without hesitation, she drew the dagger from her sleeve and cut the man's neck with a single move; She made four more moves in a row, killing the four closest to her with precision. Only then did the bandits discover that this girl was not a good person, but an experienced female killer! Enraged, they drew their weapons together and lunged at her. Wei Yangyang turned her head and ran out, passing by the place where she had just hidden, she jumped on the boulder and took out her Yide Bao knife, like a tiger with wings. In addition, the place where she is standing is very narrow, and only one person can pass through, if the mountain bandits want to catch Li Zheng again, they have to pass through her, it is simply a husband and a wife!
Wei Yangyang's left and right hands opened the bow at the same time, her right hand was a peerless treasure knife made of stainless steel, and her left hand was her small crossbow that could be hidden on her forearm. The small crossbow was originally designed by Jing Xian, and the crossbow arrow could only shoot two or three feet away. After arriving in Huadu, Shen Mingyuan knew that she liked this little crossbow, and found someone to help her improve it, and now she can shoot five feet. With a distance of five feet, and the poison that sealed the throat with blood on the arrow, it is simply a handy weapon in hand-to-hand combat!
The bow and crossbow are sharp weapons, and the Great Yang Law strictly prohibits the people from building them privately. In addition, each crossbow arrow is not easy to make and is worth a lot of money, so the mountain bandits naturally have no money to buy it. Therefore, although they were numerous, they were far behind Wei Yangyang in terms of weapons. Although the number of this mountain bandit is small, it can run rampant in Dishan for many years. Today, when they saw a piece of fat slipping away from their eyes, and a group of people could not beat a young girl, they were angry and attacked her together.
Wei Yangyang is waiting for this moment! She snorted coldly: "Today, I will open the eyes of you people who have never seen the world." She waited for the remaining dozen or so people to approach, pulled out the dragon in her arms and threw it over, and she quickly jumped behind a stone to avoid the sound of the explosion. Li Zheng was the left waiter of the Ministry of Works, so of course he recognized what she threw out, and quickly shrank his head behind the stone. That's when he realized why the girl had just let him hide here.
The dragon's explosion resounded through the valley, shattering all the stones on the mountain. As soon as Wei Yangyang heard the explosion, he jumped out of the boulder, and before the remnants of the mountain bandits came to their senses, he raised his knife and killed the last few people. She was afraid that something would slip through the net, so she examined the twenty-one corpses one by one. After confirming that they were all dead, she walked down the mountain and helped Li Zheng to walk in the direction of Kaifeng.
