Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Seaman Zhao Yi (II)
Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, the high pet and his party went on the road. In less than half an hour, this is out of the mountain, and it will be a broad road in the future. This shortcut, they don't enter Nanling City, they can't go out of Xuancheng, they directly go to the south, so they can save twenty or thirty miles. After more than a day, they crossed the Gejiang River in Tongling, the Huayang River in Xuancheng, and traveled south along the bank of the Shuiyang River. Guan Yu saw the boundary monument of Ningguo, it had been nearly three months away from home, thinking about what had happened, he couldn't help but be teary-eyed, how familiar this mountain and this water were, and it made people kind.
After a short break, everyone set off, passed the port village, and walked for more than ten miles, and saw a small group of officers and soldiers and a notice on the side of the road, to the effect that there were bandits in Xiaoguanling ahead, so that pedestrians and merchants could go together, and if necessary, they could be protected by officers and soldiers. There are many people in Gao Pet, and there is no need for protection, and Gao Pet also intends to contact the bandits, so he gave the officers and soldiers some money, and the officers and soldiers instructed them to take precautions and lead the team to continue to move forward. Soon after, the scout came to report that there were bandits at the intersection in front of him, and asked Gao Pet what to do.
Gao Chong and his entourage went out to guard the intersection of the officers and soldiers, and Zhao Heng of the Zhao family had received a report that Gao Chong and his party had more than 10 cars and nearly 40 people, so Zhao Yi asked Zhao Heng to take more than 50 people down the mountain in person. At this intersection, there were more than sixty people in the original team. Zhao Heng has a lot of people, and he is not afraid of being favored and not selling.
Zhao Yi and Zhao Heng are not innocent people, but now they have torn their faces with the official family, and everyone has to open their mouths to eat and stretch out their hands to dress, isn't there no way, so they took this way. Every time a robber, it is also one out of ten.
"Oh, Wuna merchant, I opened this road, I cut this tree, I want to pass by from here, and leave the road to buy money." This bloody plot, the lines are the same every time, and there is no new creativity. Gao Pet pushed aside the crowd and walked to the front, followed by Guan Yu, Dazhu, and Sigui. Stand still in the middle of the road.
"In Xiatongling, the surname of the Gao family is Gaoming, this is my brother-in-law Ningguo Guan Jiaguan Yu, we will accompany the brother-in-law back to Ningguo, if you offend, please forgive me."
"It turned out to be Gao Gongzi, Guan Gongzi, and I Zhao Heng of the Zhao family, and I had no choice but to do this business." I saw Zhao Heng lining up everyone to rush forward, and replied loudly.
"He was originally an anti-gold hero, Brother Zhao's name has long been like thunder, and now I am fortunate to know Brother Zhao and be worshiped by my younger brother." Gao Chong greeted Zhao Heng on the horse. Zhao Heng saw that this young general was advantageous, and he didn't see Gao Pet Like most people trembled when they saw the bandits, and they no longer underestimated it, and then heard the other party say that he was an anti-gold hero, and knew that what he did in the past was not buried because he was a bandit, and his goodwill increased a few more.
"Brother Gao doesn't have to be polite, you and I are destined, but I don't want to break the rules, as long as you are better than this golden gun, I will let you go, and I will no longer be embarrassed with you, if you are not as good as others, you still pay the road money according to the rules."
"Okay, it's okay to compete, but this rule is definitely bad, it can't be broken, I will pay this money no matter whether I win or lose."
This Zhao Heng has a lot of strength since he was a child, and he has to be guided by a master, and he has to be honed on the battlefield, and his combat style is crisp and neat.
Gao Pet learned Hanyuan, and after the lightning strike, he realized that his kung fu was like fire, and he saw that Zhao Heng was coming very fiercely, but he was not afraid, and he raised his gun to meet him. Let go of the golden gun, shake the head of the gun, and counterattack Zhao Heng's faΓ§ade. Zhao Heng reacted very quickly, returned the gun and set up the golden tiger head gun, and the two horses quickly staggered by, it was already a round. Personnel on both sides roared "Good! βγ
Although some subordinates applauded, Zhao Heng knew the danger of the first round, cheered up, turned the horse's head, and held the gun in his hand, this was a defensive posture, but the momentum fell. It can also be said that Gao Chong's move has defeated Zhao Heng.
When Zhao Heng was ready, Gao Chong didn't speak, and attacked Zhao Heng with a spear, and the move he used was still the previous move to smash Huanglong. Zhao Heng raised his gun and went to the chiseled golden gun, and found that he couldn't move the high-quality spear at all, and the cold spear of chiseled gold had stopped in front of Zhao Heng's eyes.
"I lost, I'm not your opponent, the previous words still count."
"Me too. This time Ben didn't bring too many things, and Dazhu sent three carts of wine to Brother Zhao. Brother Guan, you asked the Guan family to send ten carts of grain to Brother Zhao first, and count it on me. β
"The fifth brother said that, I can still get a few truckloads of grain out of the house." Guan Yu stepped forward and said. He turned his face to Zhao Heng and said, "Brother Zhao, the food will be sent to you when I get home." "This grain Zhao family needs the most, the cottage is waiting for the rice to go to the pot, you see this has just escaped from Xuancheng, and after another big war, the cottage is digging wild vegetables, hunting wild meat, although this is the official road is deserted, how many people can there be? I heard that Gao Pet sent food and was not polite.
"Brother Zhao thanked the whole village first, not afraid to say ugly, the village can no longer open the pot. Brother Gao's martial arts are very good, and he admires it, if he doesn't dislike it, please go to the mountain to coil over, and we can get close to him again. β
"Don't go to the mountain first, you see that my eldest brother has left Ningguo for a few days, and now the door of the house is in front of him, if he doesn't go home, it is not in line with the ceremony, when the matter is over, I will go to visit your father and his old man, and it is good to stay on the mountain for a few more days."
"Okay, I won't delay you, it's not early, Zhao is sweeping the couch on the mountain to wait for the senior brother."
Everyone didn't say much, Gao Pet gave three cars of wine and a few matches, taught them how to use them, and gave some small gifts, everyone said goodbye.
Zhao Heng took the brothers back to the mountain, took a jar of liquor and a match to see his father Zhao Yi. Zhao Yi is cleaning up the grass house. Just half a month on the mountain, simply built some wooden houses and grass houses as a place for everyone to perch, from Xuancheng out of the dog like a lost family, there is no tile on the top, there is no inch of land, and the grass has to fall into the grass. In order to defend his hometown, he recruited his family, scattered his wealth, recruited villagers, and led everyone into the war, but in the end, two sons died, and less than thirty percent of the soldiers remained, and Haizhou did not keep it. When he arrived in Xuancheng, not only did he not get a little help from the official family, but he was regarded as a thorn in the side of the local forces, and he was squeezed out and attacked, as a foreigner, he still endured all this, but in the end they didn't let it go, and wanted to be beaten to death with a stick. Zhao Yi thought about everything when he organized the volunteers, and thought of dying on the battlefield, but he never thought that he would become a bandit.
"Father!"
"Oh, it's back, sit!" Seeing his son come back, Zhao Yi motioned to sit down and speak.
"Look at your jubilant appearance, do you have a harvest?"
"I met Gao Chong, the eldest son of the Gao family in Tongling, who accompanied his brother-in-law Guan Yu of Ningguo back to Ningguo and had a fight. This is something sent by Gao Chong and Guan Yu, three truckloads of wine have been sent, and ten carloads of grain will be sent over in two days. "With this food, you can hold on for a while, and when the land you have cultivated grows up, you will not be afraid, and you don't have to go out to rob. The most difficult part is these months.
"Look at this Tongling Gao family is the descendant of Gao Huaide, no wonder there is such a big belly. What was the result of your contest with him? β
"I'm not on the same level as him, I didn't go through the second round, and I'm embarrassed for you." Zhao Heng was very embarrassed, he was too much to do with Gao Pet, and he didn't have all his strength in the first round.
"Don't care, the Gao family is a family of military generals, what we are, there is no inheritance."
"You see the matches they make are very interesting." As he spoke, he lit a match in front of Zhao Yi. Good stuff.
"With this, it's very convenient to make a fire and cook there."
"He said that he came to see you for two days."
"Oh, get busy, that wine will be fun for everyone at night." , sent his son away, Zhao Yi fell into deep thought. This high favor is interesting, a child of a family, but he has such respect for a bandit, why?
