Chapter 7 Pinching clay figures, solving acacia

"One or two silver gang prime ministers recruited a soldier, and the small one should be credited."

Half an acre of sugarcane was planted in the depression, Xu Ku cut a few knots with a knife, and handed it to Wei Hongluan while peeling it.

"Prime Minister taste, it was just ripe in autumn."

Patches of sugar cane were as tall as a grown man, and they hid two carts and five people firmly.

Wei Hongluan took the sugarcane in his hand and nibbled on it, "Why do you always think about remembering merit, what is the use of the merit of the person in distress." ”

"The little one has long said that the prime minister is the soul of the mountain. When Luan Feng sings again, it will be able to sound the four wilds. ”

"The small one is to accumulate some credit first, so as not to have an unstable job in the future." Xu said bitterly, causing another roll of the eye.

"The three armies can win the commandery, but the horseman can't win the ambition, who said this?"

Wei Hongluan felt that this was extraordinary when she first heard it, but she still said it from the mouth of a jailer, which made her very interested.

"Can't it be a small creation?" Xu quipped bitterly.

"Don't say it." Wei Hongluan turned his face away.

"A sage surnamed Kong said, according to legend, he traveled around the world, and there were 3,000 disciples and 2 out of 70 sages."

Wei Hongluan imagined that scene, with some admiration, but then sighed lightly, "Maybe only the peaceful world can produce such talents, I miss my big mountain, lack of soldiers and food." Now it's broken again, and Chuzhou ......"

"Prime Minister, if you say it smallly, this sage surnamed Kong can drive a fierce horse with one hand, and with the other hand, he can wave a long soldier to charge into battle. Is it hard to fight a bloody way in the chaotic times when etiquette and music are collapsing, countries are fighting, and bandits are rampant? ”

"It's strange to believe you."

After chatting for a while, Wei Hongluan's nervous mood finally settled down, and fatigue came over, and he fell asleep on the broken car.

Xu Ku took out the broken quilt and covered it for her, and walked towards Su Mu on the edge of the ridge.

Passing by Hu Xiaodao and Qiu Niang's car, an indescribable sound came, and the car shook endlessly.

I don't have to set the horse, otherwise I am afraid that I would have rushed out of the sugarcane field at this time, Xu said bitterly.

The adobe on Su Mu's face had already been washed away, and his eyebrows and eyes had been restored.

Seeing Xu Ku coming, he hurriedly kicked the graffiti drawn on the ground under his feet with his feet.

When he looked up, he also saw the situation on Hu Xiaodao's side, frowned, and snorted.

"How can you be like this, brother...... Tireless. The foul words that came to his lips were swallowed back.

"The summer envoy is not strange. The knife has been lonely since he was a child, and when he came, he said on the way that the world is in chaos, and he can't keep the corpses in the wilderness at any moment. ”

"gave birth to a son earlier, and his Hu family has a heritage. also secretly thought of a way to throw the child to a rich family to feed, but Qiu Niang didn't know this. Xia Envoy don't say it to Qiu Niang. ”

Xu Ku's voice carried a hint of desolation.

Su Mu was a little moved, but he didn't speak after all.

In the final analysis, Da Xia and Da Luan have a hatred of destroying the country, and Su Mu doesn't feel that he should say something compassionate.

At this time, Wei Hongluan, although he had fled with the car, always had some scruples when he spoke. Hu Xiaodao and his wife stayed away.

Only the jailer in front of him has no mustard or hostility from the time they met until now.

Xu Ku saw through her thoughts, and said calmly: "Each is just his master." ”

He looked at Su Mu's feet again, "I don't know which Sansheng is fortunate enough to miss Meng Xia so much." Xu bitterly sighed.

Although the lines of the graffiti were messy, with his eyesight, he could see that it was a portrait.

"With that spiritual head, it's better to guard your family Wei Hongluan, didn't you blurt out your name in front of the Chuzhou prison that day."

"Now why is there another prime minister, and he doesn't look cool." Su Mu said sarcastically.

Xu Ku was not angry, and spit out the bagasse in his mouth.

A finger-wide strip was pulled from the sugarcane skin of the pad, which was very similar to the bamboo knife used in the previous life. Grab some of the dead grass on the ground and mix it into the soil that was kicked loose by Su Mu.

Secretly praise the quality of this mountain, it is simply a paradise for clay figures.

"The prime minister is no longer than Xia Ling's qi pulse, he has already slept, and it is estimated that it will take a long time to wake up."

"I set off until dawn, if the summer envoy talks about the appearance of the person he is thinking, I will pinch a clay figure and give it to the summer envoy. Repay the grace of saving lives this morning. Xu Ku proposed.

Although Su Mu had seen Xu Ku's craftsmanship, he was very tempted.

He still said: "You can calculate, a clay figure is worth a life?" ”

"In troubled times, the lives of displaced people are like grass mustard, and sometimes they are not as good as mud people."

The adobe in his hand had been finished while speaking, and Xu Ku looked at Su Mu's eyes.

"The most bitter thing in the world is lovesickness."

"If the summer envoy doesn't mind, he can tell me the scene with the deepest memory, so that he can look like him."

I don't know what force drove him, Su Mu said slowly, "It was snowing that day, and he was holding a book......

This time, Xu worked hard to pinch it very carefully.

After a stick of incense, as the story deepened, the clay figurines became more and more vivid.

The last sugarcane skin fell, and Xu Ku put the clay figure in Su Mu's palm.

"If you live to Wangjing this time, you will help the summer envoy to color and burn colors."

With that, Xu Ku got up and left.

Su Mu vaguely heard a sentence: "Once the sea was difficult to turn into water, except for Wushan, it is not a cloud." ”

Good poetry. She looked at the clay figurine, deep in memory.

……

In the wilderness, at the beginning of the escape, Xu Ku did not sleep very steadily.

When I woke up, my eyes were very sour. Looking up at the sky, it was almost dawn.

Wei Hongluan re-covered the broken quilt that kicked open, and Xu Ku carried the jailer's knife to a clearing between the sugar canes.

Keep practicing.

"Your wrists are flexible."

I don't know when, Su Mu was already standing not far away. Looking at the reddish corners of his eyes, it is estimated that he has not slept all night.

"Why don't you take a nap and sleep in the summer, the injury will heal faster." Xu Ku's movements did not stop.

"Let me teach you a few tricks before, and I've been paying attention. He has hard joints and thick limbs, which is suitable for walking the fierce path of your big mountains. It's you, the number of paths that suit me better. Su Mu said.

"Why don't I teach you to practice the sword, and resist your clay man. What if you owe it? ”

Well? And such a good thing? I have long heard that Daxia Jinyiwei is extraordinary.

"That's a good idea. But if you learn Jinyiwei's knife skills and are seen, will you die an ugly death? Xu said bitterly.

"Who said they were going to teach Jinyiwei's knife?" Su Mu pouted.

"I taught you the Northern Liang knife technique, and you are also a subordinate of Great Xia, so it doesn't matter if you learn it. On weekdays, I also make your jailer's knife is. ”

Today, Great Xia is located in the Central Plains and has the capital of Taiping City.

Under it, there are six vassal states of Beiliang, Dachu, Daqian, Daluan, Jinshui and Liyang.

Beiliang is the only country bordering Daluan except for Daxia.

Seeing that Xu Ku agreed, Su Mu demonstrated a set of shocking knife moves three times, and helped Xu Ku adjust his posture several times.

It wasn't until the light of day that Xu Ku reluctantly memorized the routine.

"The Beiliang knife is easy to learn and difficult to master, and it takes three years of hard work to practice every day."

"Remember, my life is still owed, and I will come and take it at any time when I need it."

Xu Ku could only smile bitterly and clench his fist at Su Mu, whoever was worried about his life by the Great Xia envoy would not be too happy.

However, if you pinch a clay figure, you will change the Beiliang knife move, and after all, Xu will earn it.

The shocking snoring finally stopped, Hu Xiaodao got out of the carriage canopy, and Qiu Niang's face was slightly red and she led the horse to the stream to drink.

"Brother Ku, it's really early." As soon as Hu Xiaodao yawned and said hello, he was rewarded by Xu Ku.

"You only care about your own comfort, so you can't pay attention to the next occasion."

Xu Ku thought about the high-pitched and sometimes low-pitched voice of last night, and he couldn't get angry.

Just as he was about to speak, a few pillars of smoke rose from the northwest sky.

A loud bang shook the wilderness.

Chuzhou City, broken.

Exclamations, cries, crashes, footsteps came from all directions.

On the dirt slopes, at the bottom of the trenches, among the trees, large and small streams of displaced people poured out and fled in a southeasterly direction.

"Knife, call your mother-in-law back to set the car."

Xu Ku clenched the knife.
