Chapter 45: Parting
Liang Ziwen pouted mischievously, stepped forward with a big grin, raised his hand, wrapped his arms around Lan Chen's neck with a slight force, and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, I'm still so suspicious, stinky little viscount." ”
"How can you call someone that?"
"Hey, you kid."
"What kid is not a kid, I'm a lord, be respectful."
"Go, go, your set won't work with me. I'm afraid you're not thinking, I, the leader of the A branch, are here to join in the fun. What is the reason, firstly, Xuzhou can't spare manpower, and secondly, you have also made great contributions. ”
"Great work?"
"Yes." Liang Ziwen nodded and said, "This gang of thieves has been entrenched for many years and has harvested a lot of stolen goods, which can be regarded as a big trouble. ”
"Then why didn't you make a move?" Lan Chen was a little speechless.
The white bones and dead corpses behind him are still vividly visible, if the first Fengsu had acted earlier, there would not have been so many innocent souls......
"Someone as smart as you would have this doubt?"
"Don't wear a top hat, I'm just an ordinary person."
"Huh." After sneering, Liang Ziwen also explained, "Manpower is insufficient, if you pull it out, you are afraid that you will be attacked by the enemy." But don't go on this trip and a few of you will kill the bandits, that's just good luck, this gang made a big fuss, and most of the thieves were swept out, so they picked up the leak. ”
"That's right." Lan Chen nodded, barely understanding the hardships of the first office.
In any case, no fish slipped through the net, and it can be regarded as keeping one side safe.
"Yes, I heard that you are a great hero this time." Liang Ziwen patted Lan Chen on the shoulder, "That Zhou Datian was extremely cunning, but it fell into your hands, but it also reminded me of the scene of besieging Master Chen before, it is better for you to join in Xianfeng, it just so happens that I will go out in the near future." ”
"Oh?" Lan Chen glanced at Liang Ziwen, "Far away? ”
"yes. Hey, guess what? ”
"Beijing?"
"It's you." Liang Ziwen smiled, and his eyes rippled with a touch of sadness.
"Old Master Chen......" Lan Chen glanced left and right, and after confirming that it was okay, he lowered his voice and said, "Is there a deal about hooking up with foreign races?" ”
Liang Ziwen shrugged, "He's dead." ”
"Dead!?"
"Yes, on the first day of the 'Fang Market', it was so busy that I even had to take out manpower from prison. When I returned, I found him hanging. Liang Ziwen snorted coldly, "Heh, that's so rough, how can there be no bruises on the throat of the person who hanged him, and at first glance, he was killed first and then pretended to be hanged." ”
Lan Chen opened and closed his mouth, not knowing how to comfort Liang Ziwen.
At the risk of being held accountable, after catching the 'bait' of Master Chen, he didn't even catch a 'big fish', and this happened.
No, no.
Liang Ziwen also saw Lan Chen's unwillingness, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I asked what happened, I don't know if it's true or not." With these clues, I also saw things more and more clearly, no, I was called to the capital, hey. ”
"Beijing? Did someone summon you up? Then this act is more auspicious! ”
"Don't be impatient, the soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, and I will keep a hand. Going to the capital is accompanied by risks and benefits. Traitors are in charge, but there are also people of insight who can be trusted. Why don't you go with me? ”
Facing Liang Ziwen's invitation, Lan Chen was really a little moved.
But he also knew that it was not yet time.
Liang Ziwen is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river - it is difficult to protect himself, and the 'river' is turbulent.
Lan Chen shook his head and said, "Xuzhou still has something to deal with, next time, next time, if there is a next time." Commander Liang, I don't know when we will meet when we will go, but if there is a fate to see you again, that guest, I will decide. ”
Clench your fists and bow down, everything is in plain sight.
Liang Ziwen smiled with relief, turned around, and was busy sorting out the rows of stolen goods.
It took a while before it was cleaned up.
A group of dozens of people, dozens of horses, and ten carts, galloped towards Xuzhou.
Sitting in the carriage, through the small window, Lan Chen looked into the distance and fell into unknown thoughts.
This confusion also affected Lin Dongshuang outside.
Riding by, noticing the restlessness of her thoughts, she snorted a few times, slowed down her horse, and asked, "What's wrong?" Just after you finished talking to Commander Liang, you didn't say a word? ”
"It's fine." Lan Chen shook his head and forced a smile, "I'm talking about poetry and distance, dreams." ”
"Dreams? What is a dream? ”
"I don't understand it."
"Inexplicable." Lin Dongshuang rolled her eyes, "If you don't say it, how can I understand." ”
"Why don't you give me a ride?" Lan Chen quipped, "Look, I was fine when I came, but I was in the carriage when I went back." I thought, if I can sit behind you and follow the horse and shake and shake and shake, maybe you will understand, and I will be happy. ”
"If you want to die, just say it, I don't mind giving you a ride."
"Tsk, scumbag, after relieving the confusion in your heart, you left me aside."
"Scumbag? What do you mean? What are you talking nonsense again. ”
"It's just that I'm going to abandon you, bad woman." Seeing Lin Dongshuang's killing intent Zou Zeng, Lan Chen hurriedly changed the topic and said, "I just want a gentle dreamland, and you won't even give me this." ”
After a moment of silence, Lin Dongshuang lowered his head and whispered, "Then stop, you come up and sit behind me......"
"Huh? What was said? ”
"No, I'll let you die quickly! Drive! Walk! ”
As soon as the smoke slipped away, the horse sprang around like a deer.
Lan Chen inexplicably watched the billowing smoke and dust go away, and this unknown reason was really tossed, making the confusion in his eyes disappear.
Bumpy, shaky, like a lullaby, sleepy.
Sleep peacefully and return to Xuzhou.
Lan Chen had no intention of going to the Xianfeng Office together, but when he thought that there was a bounty to take, he also followed the others.
At least this time the bounty is much easier to get than the last time.
There are no misunderstandings and contradictions, no messes.
Lan Chen was in a happy mood, walking all the way, throwing a small money bag all the way to play, afraid that others would not see that he had just received the reward.
Back at home, the night was getting deeper.
Lan Chen also informed Xiao Zhou of the news as soon as possible.
Hearing that his father was killed, and in front of him was the 'murderer of his father', Xiao Zhou's eyes flashed with a trace of sadness, even if he bought it to the Red Mansion, it was her father......
However, it was her father, and this father has no humanity at all.
Under the hot tears, he was full of gratitude to Lan Chen, and he was finally able to get rid of this 'nightmare'.
Especially when he learned that the bones on Kotou Mountain were cold, Xiao Zhou couldn't help but clap his hands and exclaim, this kind of person should be damned!
During dinner, the few people in the Lan Mansion all listened intently to Lan Chen's story about Goutou Mountain.
That's called a ups and downs.
And their eyes were full of worry, but when they saw Lan Chen's unhealthy life, they were full of relief.
After the meal, Lan Chen stopped Lao Zheng and said, "Lao Zheng, teach me some swordsmanship, otherwise you can do kung fu with your fists and feet." ”
"Well, young master, that's what I mean."
