Chapter 124: Hiding in a cave
The bearded man's name is Xu Wu, and he has some skills, and seeing that Yan Gongzi can't tell the truth, he plans to defeat Yang Shucheng and the others, and then force him to ask the real situation.
Xu Wu pulled out a machete and slashed at Yang Shucheng.
Yang Shucheng didn't have time to answer, so he had to draw his sword to meet him, and the two were killed in one place.
You come and go, one fierce, the other agile and agile, back and forth to kill more than twenty rounds.
Yang Shucheng killed for a long time, and understood that this Xu Wu was just the courage of a horseman, so he looked at the gap and stabbed it with a sword, hitting him in the chest, Yang Shucheng had no enmity with him, but he stopped at the point and did not hurt him.
This Xu Wu has a good face, and the big words have been spoken, and he has slashed dozens of knives, and he has not even touched the corners of the other party's clothes. He usually counts on the machete in his hand to make a name, and he is a little proud, but today he was defeated in the hands of a nobody, and he couldn't help it.
Xu Wu blushed with shame, couldn't get off the stage, turned around and ran away.
The middle-aged man surnamed Yan hurriedly shouted: "Xu Zhuangshi, don't run, we still have big things to do." ”
When Xu Wu heard this, he thought he was sarcastic, and he ran faster.
The surname Yan has a big event, seeing that Xu Wu has run away, he has no power to tie the chicken, how can he complete the task, he can't help but stomp his feet and sigh, in vain:
"What to do? What to do......"
"Young Master Yan, is there anything embarrassing?" Yang Shucheng felt that the incident was caused by himself, and when he saw that this middle-aged man surnamed Yan was so embarrassed, he couldn't help it.
The middle-aged man surnamed Yan saw Yang Shucheng talking, so he had to say truthfully: "The next surname is Yan Delin, a native of Luoyang, who originally did an important thing for the king, and the king sent this Xu Wu to protect me, but now he has run away, leaving me with a difficult step." What can I do about this, how can the king's affairs be delayed. ”
Yang Shucheng saw that he was really anxious, so he said: "Under Yang Shucheng, what is Yan Gongzi in a hurry, say it and see if we can help?" ”
Yan Delin said: "Let's be honest, I was sent by King Daxi." ”
He looked at Yang Shucheng and the two, and the two were not surprised, so he said: "King Daxi captured Wuchang, the imperial court sent Zuo Liangyu to lead heavy troops to suppress it, Zuo Liangyu reported to the imperial court again, and sent Ma Shiying to help from the east. ”
"Yes," Yang Shucheng nodded in response.
Yan Delin said: "I was under the command of King Daxi, and before I made an inch, I took the initiative to offer advice, saying that I was to contact the owner of Dabie Mountain to go south to Dabie Mountain, attack the county seat, and lead Ma Shiying's troops from the north, so that the two families could not be encircled. ”
"Then Ma Shiying will come to attack Dabie Mountain?" Zhang Xunmei asked.
"Yes." Yan Delin said, "When Ma Shiying arrived in Hubei, he didn't join forces with Zuo Liangyu for a long time, because he was afraid that his army would suffer losses, and let Zuo Liangyu get credit, so as long as the owner of Dabie Cottage moved, Ma Shiying would inevitably find an excuse to attack Dabie Mountain." This allowed Zuo Liangyu's army to attack King Daxi, and the pressure on King Daxi was reduced a lot. ”
"It's a good idea." Zhang Xunmei praised.
"But the king of Daxi didn't trust me, so he put my family in the army, and sent this Xu Wu to assist me. Now that he's gone, I'm powerless to do anything about it, and I'm going to be trapped in the army, and I can't save them. Yan Delin shook and sighed, "It's not a pity for me to die, but my family died in the army." ”
Yang Shucheng became sympathetic, seeing this Yan Delin's dignified appearance, he couldn't help but feel close to him, if it weren't for the troubled times, this surnamed Yan might still be a good minister who ruled the world, and he must help him.
Yang Shucheng made up his mind, so he said: "We don't have anything important, just send King Fu to the Ma Shiying army, it's not a matter of urgency, Brother Zhang and I will protect Yan Gongzi to see the Lord of Heaven Village, but let me make it clear first, whether the matter will succeed or not, we dare not guarantee it." ”
When Yan Delin saw that these two people were willing to protect themselves to see the lord of the heavenly village, he would be able to complete the task with his three-inch tongue, so he was overjoyed and thanked again and again.
At this time, the sky was also dark, Yan Delin said: "Now that it is dark, this place is deserted, and I really can't walk, where can I go to spend the night?" ”
"The surname Yan, do you have anything to eat?" Xiao Fuwang, who was sitting on the cart, was already hungry and growling, he didn't care who was right or wrong between the court and the thieves, he only cared about his big round belly.
Yan Delin hurriedly said: "I bring food." ”
As he spoke, he unburdened his back and took out the food from it. He knew that the fat man had a wide stomach and was particularly edible, so he took out all the meat in the baggage, there was a small cooked pig's head, this pig's head was originally Xu Wu's, he bullied Yan Delin is a scholar, so he let him carry it, and now he has run away, this little pig's head is Xiaofuwang's.
Xiaofu Wang sat on the cart, holding the cooked pig's head and gnawing on it, it seems that Xiaofu Wang's head is really bigger than the pig's head in his hand, but Yang Shucheng and the two are used to it, it doesn't matter, and Yan Delin looked at him, some wanted to laugh, but thinking that there were still begging others, he didn't dare to laugh, and his face tightened.
There are still a few days of food in the baggage, Yan Delin took it out, Yang Shucheng and Zhang Xunmei also took a few things in their hands, and now it is also time to eat, so the two of them are not polite, so they take it in their hands and eat.
Only Yan Delin thought about his unfinished business, full of sorrow, where could he eat a bite.
Yang Shucheng and the others didn't care about him, as long as he promised others to help, he would be qualified to eat other people's things, so after persuading Yan Delin for a few words, he unceremoniously finished the food in his hand.
The little Fu King ate a cooked pig's head, and he was full of most of it, but there was no wine, some regrets, thinking about going to Heaven Village, there must be good wine and meat to eat in the cottage, and he was also very concerned about Heaven Village, and was busy saying:
"There is no passer-by to ask what direction Paradise Village is."
Yan Delin said: "It's also around here, but I turned around in the deep mountains and lost my way." ”
Yang Shucheng said: "There are robbers around here, before, they also robbed King Fu, and Paradise Village will not be far away." ”
When King Xiaofu thought that the gang of minions who had robbed during the day was nearby, he was so frightened that his whole body trembled, and said: "Let's go to Shannan soon, this group of people kills people without blinking, let's not provoke them." ”
When Yan Delin heard that this little lucky king was leaving, his heart was frightened, and he looked at Yang Shucheng beggingly.
Yang Shucheng said to him: "Young Master Yan, don't worry, we will definitely help you." ”
Yan Delin was completely relieved.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the roads around were indistinguishable, Yang Shucheng said: "Now go to the place where you don't go to the village in front of you and don't have a store in the back, hurry up and find a leeward place, and you will have to spend the night, and then find the way to Paradise Village tomorrow." ”
had to do this, Yan Delin and Zhang Xunmei pushed the cart in the back, and Yang Shucheng pulled the cart in front and walked along the road towards the south.
After walking for a while, I saw that there was a cave on the mountain on the left, which was dark and swarthy, and Yang Shucheng said: "Great, just stay in that cave for the night, and ask for directions tomorrow morning." ”
That Yan Delin agreed, and it didn't matter if King Xiaofu was there, anyway, someone would carry him up the mountain into the cave.
It's just that Zhang Xunmei didn't want to, and complained about Yang Shucheng in her heart, but it was hard to say it in her mouth.
Yang Shucheng pulled the cart and walked up the hillside, and the two people behind him pushed it, and it was effortless, and they quickly pushed it up the mountain. Yang Shucheng parked the cart and hiked up the mountain by himself to explore the road first.
When I came to the cave, I looked inside, and there was a bed in it, and four people were crammed into it, and I would still be able to spend the night.
Yang Shucheng asked Xiaofu Wang to get up, helped him into the innermost part of the sting, and sat down. Then Yang Shucheng and Yan Delin got in, and there was still a gap left, just reserved for Zhang Xunmei.
That Zhang Xunmei stood outside the cave, but he didn't go into the hole.
Yang Shucheng hurriedly said: "Brother Zhang, it's cold outside, come in quickly." ”
That Zhang Xunmei turned her back and just ignored him.
Yang Shucheng knew that he was the son of a noble family, and he was used to it, so he thought the cave was dirty, so he walked out of the cave and said, "Brother Zhang, you wait, I'll go and spread some hay for you to ensure that you sleep comfortably at night." ”
"You are in the cave, and leave me alone. I'm going somewhere else. He turned around and left.
"Brother Zhang, you wait for me." Yang Shucheng said busily.
"Hehe......" The little blessing king in the mountain couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Yang Shucheng asked strangely.
