Huo Yun recognized that the person was Zhang Zhang, the horseman of the house. I saw that his forehead was broken, oozing blood, and he didn't dare to cover his hands, looking frightened, and bowed down and stood by the roadside.

Huo Yun thought to himself, it should be that the small pebble that he kicked just now happened to hit his forehead, and he couldn't help but laugh, but his face was gloomy, and he asked, "What are you doing in the bushes?" ”

Zhang Zhang became more and more panicked, unable to speak. At this moment, there was a shuddering sound from the bushes, and then a light figure disappeared suddenly.

Huo Yun was taken aback, and for a moment, he saw that it was a maid in the house, so he was stunned and kicked Zhang Zhang hard.

Zhang Zhang didn't take precautions, he was kicked on his back and fell to the ground, and soon turned over again, kneeling on the ground and trembling.

Huo Yun sneered: "In broad daylight, I don't know shame. ”

Zhang Zhang didn't dare to raise his head, and said tremblingly: "The villain is guilty." ”

Huo Yun thought about going out, so he didn't bother with him, kicked him again, and shouted, "Prepare a good horse for me, and I'll clean you up when I come back." ”

Seeing that he was no longer pursuing it, Zhang Zhang immediately breathed a sigh of relief, got up with a bone, answered the "whoo", and ran towards the stable.

Huo Yun snorted, walked towards the door with his hands behind his back, and the family members in the courtyard came over to salute when they saw it. Huo Yun swept his eyes, frowned slightly, and asked, "What about Martial Master Ren?" ”

Before he could reply, he saw a man running and said, "Come, come." After a while, he knelt down on one leg and arched his hand: "My subordinates will meet the lord." ”

Huo Yun said: "Martial Master Ren, what I told you to do, how did you do?" ”

Martial Master Ren raised his head and was about to reply, when he glanced at the people around him, and then hesitated.

Huo Yun waved his hand: "You guys disperse first." When the family members dispersed, they said, "Get up and speak." ”

Martial Master Ren stood up and arched his hand and said: "On the orders of the sovereign, the subordinates have recruited a group of martial arts masters to train the dead, and the camp is built in a secluded place in Qishan, waiting for the sovereign to review. ”

Huo Yun said: "I want to see what kind of people you have recruited." ”

Martial Master Ren said: "The subordinates dare not neglect. ”

"They're willing to help me."

Martial Master Ren smiled all over his face, and said flatteringly: "I heard that it was recruited by Huo Mansion, and they all ran over in a hurry." ”

Huo Yun's face was stunned, and he said dissatisfiedly: "Who told you to say that it was from Huo Mansion?" ”

Martial Master Ren was so frightened that he couldn't speak.

Huo Yun seemed to think of something else, tilted his head and looked into the distance, and after a while, he asked again, "Do those martial artists have real skills?" The hundreds of dead soldiers under my command still want them to teach martial arts. ”

Ren Wushi said: "They are all the heads of some martial arts sects. ”

Huo Yun said: "They are willing to take refuge in me." ”

Martial Master Ren sneered: "Huo Mansion is the number one powerful man in the world, and it is also their blessing to give them the opportunity to serve." ”

When Huo Yun heard him say this, he was in a very comfortable mood, and said with a proud expression: "The number one powerful person in the world? The word 'powerful' seems high and difficult to climb in the eyes of others. In my opinion, don't. ”

omitted the word powerful, that is, the first in the world. Martial Master Ren didn't understand what he meant, a trace of doubt flashed across his face, and he quickly smiled again, nodding his head again and again.

The two came to the door while talking, only to see that Zhang Zhang was already waiting there with the horse, and a group of family members were also ready to go.

Huo Yun took the reins and turned over on his horse, thought for a moment, raised his whip and pointed at Martial Master Ren and said, "You also go with me." ”

Before Martial Master Ren understood it for a moment, he asked, "Where are you going?" A housekeeper shoved the reins into his hand and said, "Go to the northern suburbs." ”

Huo Yunyang spurred the horse, and a group of people swarmed away in an instant. Zhang Zhang watched the rolling dust gradually pass away, relieved.

Liu Xun came back from Shangguanli that day, and he was sullen all the time, staying in the Xuanshu Hall to read the recital. Xu Sang quietly found Shi Gao and said, "The emperor has been stuffy in the house for the past few days, and he has thought of a way to let him go out for a walk." ”

Shi Gao said: "Before the king went out of the palace, you still complained about me." ”

Xu Sang said: "This time and that time. ”

Shi Gao smiled, thought about it, and said: "These days are high and cool, and it is a good time to shoot and hunt. The gentleman likes to shoot and hunt very much, and when there is a gap between the five days of the court meeting, I accompany him to the fields to gallop and hunt to relax. ”

Xu Sang frowned and said, "This is too dangerous, there is no other way." ”

Shi Gao said: "I will bring the good cavalry and archers in the Yulin Army, but I can protect the king." ”

Xu Sang was still hesitating, Shi Gao smiled and raised his hand at him, walked into the Xuanshu Palace, and didn't know what he said, after a while, Liu Xun called Xu Sang in and told him to prepare some food and drink that was easy to carry.

Xu Sang asked worriedly, "Your Majesty wants to go out." ”

Liu asked: "Didn't you want me to go out for a walk." ”

Shi Gao winked at Xu Sang, Xu Sang was helpless, and went out to prepare.

Liu Xun rubbed his hands, his face was full of excitement, and muttered: "It's not interesting to go to Lin Yuan, let's go to the suburbs outside the city." Is it better to face the south or the north? He hesitated for a moment

Shi Gao said: "The northern suburbs are high and dense, and there are many birds and animals. ”

Liu Xun clapped his hands: "Okay, let's go to the northern suburbs." ”

Early the next morning, Liu Xun changed into hunting clothes, and Shi Gao took ten Yu Linlang, who were good at riding and shooting, to wait outside the palace, and the group went out of the palace gate happily.

It was the autumn color, Liu Xun galloped on the horse, facing the breeze, and his heart was very happy. The group unconsciously has left Chang'an and walked in the wilderness.

Liu Xunlema looked at it, and the wheat seedlings in the field had just pulled out their leaves, fluffy and green, and the air was also filled with a faint fragrance of grass. To the east is a sandy beach with lots of grass and shrubs, and a small river meanders further afield. He hadn't been here before, so he asked, "What is this place?" ”

Shi Gao got off his horse and looked around, and he didn't know what the place was, and he was trying to find a passerby to ask, but he found that there was a stone tablet on the side of the road, engraved with the words "Chiyang Pavilion", so he replied: "This is Chiyang Pavilion." ”

"Chiyang Pavilion?" Liu Xun pondered for a moment, realized something, and pointed to the distant mountains in the west: "There should be Saga Mountain, and there is Lao Tzu's lecture office on the mountain." He said smoothly: "Man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law, and the Tao is the nature." ”

As he was about to answer, the attendants beside him suddenly shouted, and it turned out to be a hare, leaping in front of them. Liu Xun was overjoyed and drove his horse to chase after him. The hare was frightened, and ran wild in the wheat field.

Liu Xun bent his bow and arrows, aimed at the hare and shot over. The hare was scurrying around in the field, and he shot a few arrows, but they were slightly off. Shi Gao applauded for a while, sighed and regretted for a while. The attendants were not idle, and drove the hare towards Liu Xun.

The hare was so dazed that he ran straight towards the Emperor's mount. The horse was frightened and jumped up on its front legs with a long howl. Liu Xun hurriedly threw down his bow and arrows, and wrapped his hands tightly around the horse's neck.

The hare jumped over the horse's belly, and as soon as the horse's front legs landed, it instinctively raised its hind legs, and coincidentally, just kicked the hare with one hoof. The hare was kicked and rolled in mid-air a few times, and fell to the ground with a thud.

Liu Xun was shocked, and he was still holding the horse's neck and was stunned.

Shi Gao was also frightened by the scene just now, and his face turned pale, for fear that the emperor would have some accidents, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

He ran over to pick up the hare, and laughed, thinking that the emperor should say something complimenting when he hunted the prey he had already caught. However, he looked at the hare that had been kicked to death by the horse, and did not know what to say for a moment. After staying for a moment, he had an idea, knelt on the ground, and praised: "Your Majesty's divine might, so that the treasure horse will fight hard, and the cunning rabbit will die with one blow." May Your Majesty live a long life and be happy for a long time. The entourage also reacted quickly, kneeling on the ground and shouting in unison: "Long live Your Majesty, long live the long life." ”

Liu Xun glanced at the hare that was kicked to death by the horse, and was also embarrassed in his heart, and said: "This bow and arrow are not very handy, I still use a slingshot." ”

At this time, a flock of wild ducks flew up on the river beach, and Liu Xun shouted: "Water ducks." With that, he turned over and dismounted, and ran towards the riverbank. Shi Gao and his entourage also hurried after him.

There are many wild ducks feeding on the river beach, and there are many water birds floating in the river, and their colorful feathers reflect the brilliant light in autumn.

Liu Xun raised his hand to signal to stop, did not look back, stretched out his hand, and said, "Slingshot." Scoop had already taken out the slingshot from his bag and hurriedly handed it over. Liu Xun slowly moved closer to the river beach and hid in the bushes.

The ducks did not notice the danger and quacked to feed in the aquatic plants. Liu Xun held his breath, stretched out his left hand to support Mu Ya, and his right hand pinched the rubber band that wrapped the projectile and slowly pulled it to his eyes, and after aiming for a long time, he suddenly let go. The projectile swished and flew straight over, only to hear a bang, and a large flock of waterfowl fluttered their wings and swept away from the water, screaming and fleeing in all directions. Liu Xun hurriedly took out a projectile, but shot it out again before he had time to aim. By the time he tried to shoot again, the waterfowl had already flown away.

Shi Gao and his entourage had just hid behind the trees, for fear of alarming the water birds, and they did not dare to come out, so they ran out at this time, and ran quickly to the river beach, and for a while they happily picked up two wild ducks.

Liu Xun carried one in one hand, and said with a smile: "This water duck is quite fat. ”

Shi Gao complimented: "Your Majesty's divine bow, there is no missing shot." ”

The monarch was quite excited, and Shi Gao suddenly noticed that a group of farmers were rushing towards here, holding wooden scythes, sickles and other utensils in their hands. Shi Gao felt that the comer was not good, so he immediately drew his saber and motioned for his entourage to guard the emperor's surroundings.

Liu Xun looked at this group of menacing farmers and was also surprised.

In the blink of an eye, these people had already come to the front, led by a middle-aged man dressed as a pavilion official. The man wore a red silk on his head, a crimson robe, a two-foot version, a sword at his waist, and a solemn face.

Seeing this, Liu Xun and Shi Gao glanced at each other, and the two felt that the pavilion officials of the government were leading the team, and these people were not too rude, so they breathed a sigh of relief.
