Volume 1 Pot in the Sky Chapter 144 Breakthrough
The cessation of the fighting attracted the attention of both sides inside and outside the ancestral hall.
Shen Ye and the others glanced at each other, and a bad premonition arose in their hearts.
Outside the ancestral hall, Cao Rong calmed down, and there was only one reason why the fighting stopped.
"Looks like my father's side has already got it." Cao Rong said in his heart.
"Uncle, look!" The Zhuang Ding found something and couldn't help but exclaim.
Cao Rong followed their gaze and saw that the old owner of Cao Zhuang came from a distance, and those officers actually walked by his side, without any restraint between their actions.
Cao Rong was shocked, and the soles of his feet were cold.
"Oops! Could it be that my father is being controlled?! ”
Before he could think about it, the old farmer's actions dispelled his concerns, and he saw that the old farmer who came over seemed to be excited, and he was hunched over while walking forward to explain something, which made Cao Rong suddenly a little confused, and the clenched hands of the firewood knife also relaxed.
"All lay down their arms! These people are our friends of the Gongshan clan. "Gongshan is the original Dongyi surname of the Cao family, and when they heard the order of the old owner, the villagers all laid down their weapons.
"Father, this?" Cao Rong stepped forward, he looked at the few people behind the old owner Cao, and asked puzzledly.
"Wu'er, these people are friends from Jiuqu, not officials of the imperial court."
"Nine songs? How did the people of Jiuqu appear here? Cao Rong was taken aback.
Captain Sun was in a hurry, he didn't give Cao Rong time to digest the shock in his heart, and shouted directly: "Let me ask you, can Su Yan and Prince Dugu be here?" ”
"Prince Dugu?!" Cao Rong turned his head to look at the ancestral hall, the person in this is Prince Dugu? He opened his mouth wide, ignoring Captain Sun's arrogant tone.
Captain Sun looked at Cao Rong's expression, knowing that the person was inside, he sneered and ordered: "Rush in!" ”
"Wait!" The old farmer Cao's face sank directly, and the old man said in a hoarse voice: "Lord Captain, can you give the old man a thin face, after all, this is the ancestral hall of the family." ”
Captain Sun frowned, and was about to speak, when the deputy beside him hurriedly whispered: "My lord, this is a place where people worship the ancestral tablets, and besides, there are people all around them, so we don't need to mess with them." ”
Captain Sun glared at him and snorted, "Of course I know the truth. He changed his pleasant expression and said: "Old farmer, then it will be handled by your people, I have only one request, I want to live these two people." ”
As early as when Sun Xiaowei and the others and the old owner Cao appeared outside the ancestral hall at the same time, Shen Ye and the others knew that the general trend had gone, and at this time, Su Yan was remorseful, and he knelt in front of Shen Ye with an apologetic face and said: "Your Highness, I took it upon myself to bring His Highness out, otherwise how could His Highness suffer from this catastrophe?" I will pay for my sins with death! ”
Shen Ye shook his head and helped Su Yan up, and the many days of running and the exhaustion in his heart made this young man who was less than ten years old even look a little old.
"Your Highness, please promise me one thing." Tong Ran on the side also knelt down when he saw this.
Shen Ye looked at him and wondered, "What do you want me to promise you?" ”
Tong Ran handed Yang Ran's family master token and his housekeeper token to Shen Ye and said, "Tong Ran is sorry for the family master, but the family master's will must be passed on, please accept the family master and my token." ”
Shen Ye picked up the two tokens and said with a wry smile: "We are all in the same situation now, what can you do if you give me things?" ”
Tong Ran said in a deep voice: "You are the crown prince, no matter what, it is more important for them that you live, and I am not necessarily, besides, we are not completely without opportunities." ”
Shen Ye was surprised: "Do you have a way?" ”
Tong Ran sighed: "Your Highness, don't expect anything, my method is just to fight hard in the end." He turned to Su Yan, looked at the blade on his waist and said, "This is the legendary Yangzhou Double Blade?" ”
Su Yan nodded, puzzled.
Tong Ran said: "It is said that the Yangzhou double-bladed killing of the year made the Dongyi tribes frightened, and since then, the reputation of the Yangzhou double-blade has resounded throughout the four states of Dongzhili. ”
Su Yan frowned and said, "What are you talking about?" You don't think I can kill it with the Yangzhou double blade, do you? It's impossible! Even if we rush out of this Caojiazhuang, there are still Jiuqu cavalry outside, how can we run out? ”
Tong Ran looked at Yang Ran's corpse with a painful face, and said in a lamented voice: "I'm not letting you run out, but letting you go and attract their attention as much as possible." ”
......
The old owner of the village came to the ancestral hall with more than a dozen Zhuang Ding, he let the Zhuang Ding stand on both sides, and he stepped forward and shouted to the inside: "His Royal Highness the Prince can be in the hall?" ”
There was silence in the ancestral hall for a moment, and then Shen Ye's voice came: "As a citizen of the imperial court, why does the old owner want to do things for the Jiuqu rebels?" ”
Old Master Cao smiled and said proudly: "When did the old man say that he was a citizen of the court?" All my Baiyi tribes have always respected themselves, and only the Yaoshan Baili clan back then would grovel and be the lackeys of the Dugu family. ”
Shen Ye was silent for a while, and then said, "What are they sending you for?" ”
The old owner of Cao Zhuang said: "Your Highness has no way to retreat in this ancestral hall, why don't you come out and surrender?" The old man assures you that no one on either side of us will hurt you. ”
There was no reply in the ancestral hall, but there was a voice from Xi Xi Suo, the old owner was stunned, and sneered in his heart, did the prince start to exchange outfits with people? Did he want to get out of this way? Amusing! The old owner said lightly: "Your Highness, the outside is full of our people, if you come out later, the sword has no eyes, if it hurts ......."
Before the voice fell, the mutation protruded.
The door of the ancestral hall was kicked open, and the two knives shook and the sunlight rushed out of the ancestral hall.
The old farmer Cao thought that the prince had just exchanged outfits with someone and would not come out so quickly, so he was not prepared to defend at all, but fortunately, the villagers around him had been tense and stopped in front of the old farmer in time.
With a scream, Zhuang Ding in front of the old owner fell down, and Su Yan shouted with a knife in his hand: "I am the son of Yangzhou Prefecture, can you recognize the Yangzhou double blade in my hand?!" ”
"Yangzhou Double Blade!" The old farmer's eyes were round, his legs were weak at the same time, and he was paralyzed on the ground, they were one of those tribes who were driven away from Yangzhou by the Yangzhou army, the old farmer almost died under the double blade of Yangzhou back then, and he had a fear engraved in his bones about this weapon.
The same is true of those farmers, who are timid.
Su Yan took this opportunity to kill a gap directly from the side, and at the same time, a person rushed out of the ancestral hall and followed closely behind, the person's head was wrapped in a blood cloth, and a person with the same head wrapped in a blood cloth was on his back.
Cao Rong and the others under the ancestral hall rushed over as soon as Su Yan was in trouble, but when they heard the double blades of Yangzhou, Cao Rong and the others couldn't help but slow down, and at this moment, Su Rong and the others had already run away.
And Captain Sun, who was still in the effect of the medicine, and the deputy holding him did not chase after him, and they did not see Shen Ye wearing the Youzhou military uniform among these people.
"Go after it! They changed their clothes! The old owner of Cao Zhuang sat on the ground and hurriedly shouted to Captain Sun and the others.
