Chapter 169: Chance Encounters and Pursuits

The five hundred Xuanwu cavalry led by Lin Chong and Hua Rong set off first, distributed in a fan shape, spread a large net, and reconnoitred and inquired along the way, so as not to fall into an ambush by the official army.

The four brothers Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, and the Zeng family then set off, and they were escorting hundreds of cars, unable to move quickly.

After Lu Zhishen's Chinese army marched for two hours, Zhu Long Fang took Zhu Hu, Qin Ming, Luan Tingyu, Zeng Mi, Lu Fang and others, as well as five hundred cavalry of the Guards, and walked slowly with their horses unhurriedly.

Qi Zhizhou stood on the city wall, stunned as he watched the last team of Zhu Jiajun leave, a little unable to believe his good luck, he had already pondered some words full of praise in his mind, describing how he was heroic and unyielding, arguing with reason, harshly reprimanding, making him ashamed and embarrassed, and endured humiliation, secretly plotted, Jedi counterattacked, and finally recaptured Lingzhou City from the hands of the anti-thief Zhu Long, and wrote these into a touching and touching piece of singing and crying.

After this incident, he will become famous, and from then on he will enter the emperor's sight, and his progress is just around the corner.

Compared with the long-distance attack when it came, it was as fast as the wind, and the Zhujia army was like a slow turtle on the return journey, and it only entered the territory of Gaotang Prefecture on the third day.

The name of the governor of Gaotang Prefecture is Gao Lian, and he is Gao Yu's cousin, and he can be the position of this Zhizhou, of course, it depends on Gao Yu's relationship, but this person also has real skills.

In the original book, he beat Liangshan and forced Song Jiang to ask Gongsun Sheng to come back to help.

In Zhu Long's opinion, this Gao Lian is much more powerful than Zhang Qing, Zhang Qing can be majestic, that is because Lu Junyi did not make a move, because Lu Junyi did not dare to make a move.

Lu Junyi is not afraid of Zhang Qing, he is afraid of Song Jiang!

At that time, Lu Junyi and Song Jiang made a bet, Song Jiang attacked Dongping Mansion, Lu Junyi attacked Dongchang Mansion, whoever fought down first would be the third leader of Liangshan.

Song Jiang desperately wanted to win, but Lu Junyi was afraid that he would accidentally win, so he didn't dare to make a move!

If he wins, he will have to sit on the position of the boss of Liangshan! It sounds tempting, but where can you sit in that position?

Wang Lun sat on it and threw it into the lake to feed the fish.

Chao Gai also sat down, and now the grave is green.

He didn't even be a good parent, his wife and housekeeper betrayed him and almost killed him, how can he be the boss of a group of robbers who kill people and set fires, he still has self-knowledge of this!

If he dares to obey Chao Gai's last order and sit on the position of the owner of the village with a big grin, I am afraid that he will also die inexplicably.

So he would rather watch Zhang Qing show his might, and he was stunned to suppress his temperament and not make a move, just for fear that he would accidentally kill Zhang Qing.

Therefore, on the way home, the most terrible enemy is Gao Lian, not Zhang Qing, with Hua Rong, Zhang Qing doesn't want to get close at all.

On the evening of the third day, Zhu Long and the others set up camp in a clearing by the river.

It is far away from the official road, hidden by the woods, and very secluded, which is very suitable for camping.

The soldiers went to lead their horses to drink, then set up tents, dig trenches, cloth antlers, and do some simple defense. Because it was only for the night, they didn't need to erect a fence, they just sent more sentries and secret sentries at night.

Zhu Long was patrolling around, when suddenly there was a rustling sound in the woods, and the dead grass parted on both sides, as if a wild beast was running in the grass and rushed towards the camp.

"Be careful!" Lu Fang stopped in front of Zhu Long for the first time, staring nervously at the grass. The guards also guarded around Zhulong.

Zhu Long pushed them away, he was confident that he was a bear, and with his strength and physique, he could also try to fight!

When the beast rushed out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be a deer in a panic.

The deer broke into the barracks, and there were so many people in front of them, and they braked sharply, showing confused eyes, and then trampled on the ground with all four hooves, turned around and continued to run.

"Where to go?" Zhu Long chased after Lu Fang and several guards.

They run on two feet, and naturally they can't run on four feet. Lu Fang and his guards were gradually left behind, only Zhu Long was in hot pursuit, and he wanted to use this deer to add food to everyone.

He found that the deer had been hit by a crossbow bolt on its back, and it was because of this that he was able not to lose it. He couldn't help but hesitate a little in his heart, this is someone else's prey, can you catch up with it yourself?

After a little hesitation, he made up his mind that if the archer came, he would forget it, and not want it.

If he didn't come along, he would have laughed it off!

Suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves in front of me, and suddenly someone shouted, "Here! The beast is here! ”

Zhu Long stopped and hid behind a big tree.

A group of people rode over, and at the front ran several tall and fierce hounds, grinning and showing their sharp canine teeth, chasing in the direction of the deer.

Headed by a middle-aged horse-faced man, with a wolf nose and wolf eyes, arrogant and domineering between the eyebrows, there are twenty or thirty idlers behind him, no one carries a bow and arrow, all of them are slingshots, crossbows, blowpipes and the like, all varied, riding horses is still unstable, and he also learns to hunt.

Zhu Long shook his head, and was about to wait for them to leave, and then go back, but a stout big black dog suddenly twitched his nose, turned around and rushed in the direction of Zhu Long, and two dogs also ran with him!

"There's also one here, and the Black Panther General went over there!" An idler shouted.

Needless to say, the horse-faced man at the head had already turned his horse's head and followed behind the "Black Panther General".

Zhu Long had no choice but to walk out from behind the tree and shouted, "Stop your dogs, don't let this beast bite people!" ”

There is no rabies vaccine in this day and age!

"So someone is hiding here, haha!" The horse-faced man laughed, and the rest of the henchmen were also joking, and no one drank the three hounds.

Until the hound pounced, those people had no intention of stopping them.

Zhu Long was furious, raised a kick and kicked the big black dog that pounced first, and the beast fell to the ground, unable to move, whimpered a few times, and died.

The two dogs in the back pounced on one left and one right, and Zhu Long jumped behind the tree, dodged, pulled out his waist knife, and cut off a dog's head.

The other dog was very agile and rushed to Zhu Long's feet like lightning, Zhu Long flew up with his other foot and kicked the dog in the neck, only to hear a click, the dog's head twisted to the side, hanging down softly, and the dog fell to the ground, motionless.

"You? How dare you beat my dog to death? Do you know who I am? The horse-faced man said angrily.

"Lao Tzu doesn't care who you are, even Lao Tzu's own son, and I will beat you today!"

Zhu Long was already furious, threw the bloody knife on the ground, rushed over with an arrow, grabbed the reins of the horse with his left hand, pulled the placket of the horse-faced man with his right hand, pulled it down, slammed it on the ground, stepped on his chest with one foot, wanted to lower his waist, opened the bow left and right, and with a crackling thud, the face that was originally quite upright suddenly became a red and swollen pig's head.

Those playful idlers dismounted one after another, came to pull Zhu Long away, and punched and kicked him.

Zhu Long raised his body and knocked over seven or eight, he was powerful, and he was ruthless, and he went to the key point to greet him, and the people who were beaten by him were either dead or injured, and the rest of the people scattered in a hurry, turned over and ran away in a hurry!

It would not be good if they let them leak that the military camp was here, Zhu Long hurriedly picked up the blood knife, rode an empty horse to chase after him, ran a few steps, turned around and came back, and trampled towards the horse-faced man.

"Ahh The horse-faced man's chest was trampled on by the horse's hooves, and he was dented in a piece, and his mouth was spitting blood, mixed with internal organ debris, and he couldn't survive.

Only then did Zhu Long turn his horse's head and chase after him, and before he ran a few steps, Zhu Hu and Qin Ming, Shi Wengong, and Lu Fang caught up from the face.

"Kill them!" Zhu Long ordered simply.

When Zhu Hu and Shi Wen Gong heard this, they took off their bows and arrows while galloping on their horses, bent their bows and arrows, and aimed at this enemy.

They prostrate on the horse's back, their bodies falling along with the horse's jolting, and when their bodies are at the highest point, they pause in the air for a short time, and they release their arrows!

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Zhu Hu and Shi Wengong released their arrows almost at the same time, and the two arrows each hit an idler and fell off their horses.

The rest of the idlers were terrified, and beat their horses desperately, without any pity, and were eager to sit down and burn all their energy out, just to speed up the moment.

Zhu Hu and Shi Wengong glanced at each other, and the two had the heart of competition, and they shot together again, and two more idlers fell off the horse.

The two began a killing competition, you shot me with one arrow, and after a while, they shot and killed more than a dozen people.

The remaining seven idlers saw that they couldn't escape like this, so they scattered and ran for their lives!

There were only five people in Zhu Long's party, Zhu Hu and Shi Wengong each chased after them, shot two of them, and then each went to chase and kill one person, Zhu Long, Qin Ming, and Lu Fang didn't just watch the excitement, they all rode horses and went to chase and kill the enemy.

Zhu Long lived behind an idler, who was about to collapse, and while frantically whipping the war horse, he shouted meaninglessly,

His crazy actions will only make the power of the war horse consume more quickly, and when the speed slows down, it will no longer be able to get faster.

It didn't take long for the war horse to be whipped by him, and he couldn't run, Zhu Long chased after him, and cut off the idler's head with a knife, leaving only the headless corpse to continue to run forward, which looked very terrifying, but fortunately, the headless corpse soon fell!

Zhu Long grabbed the reins of the ownerless war horse and led it back.

Zhu Long and Shi Wengong came back earlier than him, and the two were chatting while collecting the ownerless horses, and the archery competition just now made the two sympathize with each other.

After a while, Qin Ming and Lu Fang also came back, everyone talked and laughed, and walked back together.

Walking to the place where Zhu Long fought just now, Qin Ming said with a smile: "I'll go and pick up the dog that the lord killed and stew dog meat hot pot at night!" ”

As he spoke, he jumped off his horse, picked up three dead dogs, and hung them on the back of an empty horse.

Although Zhu Long is not a dog lover, since he knows that the IQ of a dog is at the level of a six- or seven-year-old child, he will never eat dog meat again, it is too cruel, a six- or seven-year-old child! It's full of guilt just to think about.

But this is already a dead dog, and it doesn't hurt to eat a meal, and this is Da Song! I can't afford to waste a grain of rice, how can I waste so much meat.

"Great! Eating dog meat in winter is a great supplement! Zhu Hu drooled.

Zhu Long glared at him, "If you are young, do you need to make up for it?" ”

Lu Fang said coldly: "Lao Qin is a person with a wife, where are you going to make up for it?" ”

Zhu Hu's face was red, and he argued: "I consume a lot of martial arts training, and I want to refine and refine qi, do you understand?" Those who practice martial arts must eat meat at once! ”

"We're just you a martial arts practitioner here, we're not!" Lu Fang sneered.

"I don't dare to say it to others, your Lu Fang's martial arts are in front of me, and you are really not a person who practices martial arts!" Zhu Hu said proudly.

"That's not right!" Zhu Long's eyes searched the ground, pointed to a tree, and said with a solemn expression: "There was originally a person lying here!" ”

Qin Ming walked over, squatted on the ground and observed for a while, and said, "That's right, there are blood stains on the ground here, you should climb here, and then ride a horse and run away!" ”

"I'll chase it!" Shi Wengong hurriedly said.

Zhu Long shook his head, "Where can I catch up now, and I don't know which direction he is running!" ”

"Don't play dead!" Lu Fang kicked hard at a "corpse" on the ground.

"Ouch!" , the corpse's body curled up and begged for mercy: "Don't kill me!" The youngest one has an eighty-year-old mother, and a three-year-old child is waiting to be fed. ”

"What's your name and how old are you?" Zhu Long asked.

"The little one's name is Chen San, and he is twenty-three this year!"

Zhu Long sneered: "Your mother gave birth to you late enough, you are twenty-three, your mother is eighty, and she gave birth to you at the age of fifty or sixty!" ”

"Dare to favor us, big brother, don't talk nonsense with him, I'll send him to the underworld, build a house there, and wait for his mother to have a house to live in!" Zhu Hu pulled out his waist knife and was about to cut it.

"The hero spares his life, and the little one has important news to report!" Chen San hurriedly kowtowed.

"If you have a fart, don't let grandpa wait impatiently, let you go down with the 'important news' and tell Lord Yama!"

"Yes, yes! This news is that Zhu Long is going to pass through Gaotang Prefecture, he is carrying the gold, silver and jewelry of the rich country, as long as he robs him, then he will not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life! ”

The five Zhulong people looked at each other, and suddenly burst out laughing!

When Chen San saw them laughing, he thought they didn't believe it, so he swore an oath, "If what I say is even the slightest bit false, I won't die well!" Now that the whole of Hebei knows, even Tian Hu has sent people! ”

"Tian Hu?" Zhu Long was surprised, this is one of the four great heroes of the Northern Song Dynasty, and there are many fierce generals under him.

Although Zhu Long had always planned to annex him, he didn't plan to follow him so early, after all, Tian Hu's main territory was on Hebei West Road, and Tang Prefecture was far away! I can't calculate the time!

"Are you kid lying to me?" Zhu Long stared at Chen San's eyes viciously.

Chen San hurriedly said: "The little one will never dare!" This is the news that Uncle Yin heard, and he is going to tell Gao Taishou to ask for a reward! ”

Zhu Hu said curiously: "Which bird is this Uncle Laoshi Ziyin?" ”

"That's him!" Chen San pointed to the horse-faced man who was lying on the ground and had lost his breath.

Zhu Long's heart moved: "What's his name?" What does it have to do with high prices? ”

"His name is Yin Tianci, and he is Gao Taishou...... Cheap brother-in-law! He turned out to be a broken household with us, but he had a good life, and he had a beautiful sister who was dedicated to Gao and Gao Lian as a concubine, so Yin Tianci also soared and took us to play every day! ”

It turned out to be him!

Zhu Long suddenly remembered something and asked Chen Sandao: "Has Little Whirlwind Chai Jin ever been to Gaotang Prefecture?" ”

"I've been here, and now I'm still in the prison in Gaotang Prefecture!"
