Chapter 77: The Flower Thief
Chapter 77: The Flower Thief
Yang Shucheng rode on a horse, did not dare to delay on the way, and soon came to Ruyang City.
Coming to the small hotel, the little Fu Wang is still in the store, in the troubled times, this little Fu Wang does not dare to leave, every day in the store to eat, sleep, eat, more fat than in the past.
Yang Shucheng rented a small cart and let Xiaofu Wang sit on it, like a mountain of meat, he rode a horse in front of him, and the young man pushed in the back, and walked north together.
Walked to the wilderness and asked passers-by about the past 20 days, several large armies of the imperial court have besieged Luoyang, more than 30 thieves have already escaped, and the official army is stationed outside Luoyang City.
The three of them did not dare to delay and kept walking north. After walking for several days, I can already see the tall city of Luoyang City, there are officers and soldiers stationed outside the city, and the barracks are one by one, and it seems that the momentum is still very strong.
Yang Shucheng and his entourage walked into the city, and after the thieves, the city was ruined, and only broken walls were burned everywhere. Coming to the gate of King Fu's mansion, the guy pulled the cart back to Ruyang.
King Xiaofu implored Yang Shucheng to enter the palace, but Yang Shucheng was reluctant to enter.
He was still in a hurry to find Yan Mei, said goodbye to King Xiaofu, and rode away.
Yang Shucheng didn't know where to go to find his sister, so he had to believe in the reins and walk until the sun set, only to find a village to live in.
After eating, Yang Shu walked through the courtyard in steps, and the moonlight shone on the ground like flowing water, and everywhere was as bright as day.
Yang Shucheng has a lot on his mind. Wander in the moonlight. Suddenly, it occurred to me that the White Lotus Sect Master could predict the future, so why didn't I ask the Sect Master to calculate a hexagram.
Thinking of this, Yang Shucheng was ecstatic, but he didn't want to go to the Golden Persimmon Villa to find Zhao Xiaolin, so he had to go to Shangluo to find Song Min, the leader of the White Lotus Sect. At that time, she also had a relationship with her, she could calculate that King Li Chuang was in Shangluo Mountain, and she could naturally calculate where her sister was.
Thinking of this, Yang Shucheng was happy and did not feel sleepy.
The next day, early in the morning, Yang Shucheng set off on horseback and headed west.
The rolling mountains to the west, which are the remnants of the Qinling Mountains, are known as Funiu Mountain.
I saw that the Funiu mountain area is reckless and green, overlapping and overlapping, the mountains are deep and deep, it is late autumn, the locust tree, the poplar tree has already stripped off its leaves, the maple leaves have been red, such as the beauty is drunk, as bright as the colorful glow, there are small yellow chrysanthemums shining in the grass, this autumn scene is bright and colorful.
Yang Shucheng walked towards the mountain, although the mountain is majestic, the road is very smooth, he does not go to the deep mountain, but just along the avenue to the west.
The more west you go, the more secluded the place becomes, the fields are patchy, and it is surrounded by mountains, and although it is rich, it has not been looted by thieves. Therefore, in the midst of these troubled times, this place is really like a paradise.
On this day, I came to the territory of Xixia County unconsciously. At night, I slept in a large village, and there was a Ban River flowing next to the village, and this village was called Banhe Village.
It's the middle of the night. Yang Shucheng didn't have the heart to enjoy the moon scenery, just lying on the bed, tossing and turning and couldn't sleep.
Suddenly, hearing a shout in the distance, Yang Shucheng didn't take off his clothes for a long time, and when he heard this, he knew that it was not good, so he immediately jumped up from the bed, took the sword, and rushed out of the house, jumped on the wall, and ran towards the shouting.
I saw that the moonlight was bright, and the shouting came from the east, Yang Shucheng performed Taiqing Qigong and ran towards the shouting place like flying.
When I ran closer, I saw a house with bright lights, and the whole family was shouting, shouting: "Thief, thief......"
But they don't know where the thief is?
Yang Shucheng stood in the distance, climbed high and looked, only to see a white figure running towards the southeast like a rabbit. Thinking that it was him, Yang Shucheng jumped down and ran towards the thief.
The two of them ran towards the southeast one after the other.
Yang Shucheng chased for a while, and the thief found the pursuer. He saw Yang Shucheng chasing after him like flying, and he was also curious, so he stood in place and waited for Yang Shucheng to arrive.
Yang Shucheng ran to the front and saw that the thief was tall and wearing a white robe, really like a jade tree in the wind, and he was calmly looking at his arrival.
I saw that this person's face was like a crown of jade, with starry eyes and handsome eyebrows, but he didn't look like a thief who stole chickens and dogs.
Yang Shucheng walked closer, and when he saw that this person was not moving, just looking at himself, he asked, "Did you enter the village?" ”
The man said, "It's down here, why are you chasing me?" ”
Yang Shucheng said: "In the middle of the night, I did this stealing. ”
The man laughed, "Do you want to be nosy?" ”
Yang Shucheng said: "I'm not nosy, I just hope that I won't do this stealing thing in the future." ”
The man laughed and said, "Are you wrong, stealing chickens and touching dogs?" I don't bother to do such a thing. ”
"So what are you doing?"
"I'll take you back to see. Would you like to? ”
Yang Shucheng saw that he was so bold, and he couldn't show weakness, and said, "What's the harm in going and seeing." ”
The man held out his thumb and exclaimed, "Well done! ”
After that, he turned around and ran, but he ran north. Yang Shucheng followed.
Ran to that house, and the lights were still on, and the people had come in.
The man jumped out of the courtyard, his feet fell silently, and Yang Shucheng also jumped into the courtyard, falling like an autumn leaf.
The man walked to the window and looked in, and the house was still lit, and the family was sitting around the lamp, talking.
I heard an old man ask, "He didn't take you, did he?" ”
Sitting across from him was a girl who said, "As soon as he came in, I saw him and shouted loudly, but he did not come closer. ”
I saw that this girl was under the reflection of the light, her skin was like frost and snow, and her eyebrows were picturesque, and she didn't want to have such a small jasper in this poor peasant house.
Yang Shucheng didn't expect this person to be a flower thief, and when the thief saw Yang Shucheng looking at him, he grinned and said, "What do you think of this flower that I stole it?" ”
Yang Shucheng was about to answer, but the people in the house had heard the sound outside, hurriedly shouted, ran out, and saw two people standing in the courtyard, the thief was really brave! He dared to go and come back, and with a shout, the whole family picked up the sticks and chased after them.
The flower thief hurriedly turned around and fled, Yang Shucheng also had to flee, if he was caught, there were a hundred mouths that could not be distinguished, and it was strange not to be killed by others, so he had to flee too.
As soon as the family shouted, the villagers in the village all ran over, and this time there were many people chasing after them, and they all chased after the two of them.
Yang Shucheng thought to himself, I am not all the way with this thief, why do I go with him and run together. Thinking of this, he ran westward, and ran separately from the flower thief.
The villagers in the back immediately separated the two groups of people and chased after each other.
Yang Shucheng had no choice but to perform Taiqing Qigong, run out of the village towards the west, and run into the mountains, only then did he get rid of the pursuers behind.
Yang Shucheng walked around the mountain a few times, but there was no movement, and then he slowly walked into the village.
I only heard a noise in the distance, could it be that the flower thief was caught, and I didn't think it was right, the flower thief was so easy to be caught? It was only because he had done all his evil deeds and suffered retribution that he was caught by the villagers.
Anyway, except for a scourge, it has nothing to do with me, so I won't pursue it anymore, but I hear a cry, which is a little strange.
Yang Shucheng saw that the villagers here had all run to the east, and there was no one in the village, Yang Shucheng quickly ran to the front, mixed in with the villagers, but found that this family was mourning and crying, where was the shadow of the flower thief?
And the girl in the family is gone.
Yang Shucheng suddenly understood that the flower thief did not succeed the first time, and went the second time, he used me to lure the villagers away, turned around and entered the village again, and kidnapped the girl.
Yang Shucheng thought of this, he was angry, remembering that the flower thief ran towards the southeast, and thought that he ran in this direction again.
Yang Shucheng made up his mind and chased southeast, hoping to catch up with the flower thief.
After running for a while, in the southeast direction, where is there a figure? Yang Shucheng made up his mind and insisted on running towards the southeast, chasing five or six miles away.
The lights in the village behind him were long gone, but he saw the flower thief standing there on the side of the road by the grove in front of him, holding the girl in his hand, and looking at Yang Shucheng who was catching up calmly.
