Chapter 239: Leaving the Valley

The valley is surrounded by mountains, and there is a large pond in the middle, into which the water of two small streams collects and flows out towards the southeast corner.

Along the edge of the pond are peach willow trees, with their branches and leaves, swaying against the water.

At this time, Mu Lan and Yang Shucheng sat by the pond and fished.

The cool breeze is blowing, the willows are swaying gently, the green grass is in the distance, the green mountains are in the sky, and there are two water ducks swimming leisurely on the water.

Suddenly, the float moved, Yang Shucheng pulled suddenly, and a crucian carp fell into the grass on the shore with a silver line, and the two hurriedly ran over, caught the crucian carp, threaded it with wicker, and put it in the pond.

Fished for an afternoon and caught two strings of fish.

At this moment, the setting sun shone golden on the water.

The two of them packed up their things and returned to the hut, one cutting fish, the other burning a wood stove, and soon the smell wafted in the hut.

Under the grape trellises, the moonlight sprinkled gently, the insects in the grass next to them chirped, and there were a few frogs chirping in the distance.

Put tonight's dish under the grape trellis, there is fish and meat, and a hare that I hunted a few days ago, and a bottle of wine, pour the wine, and the two of them drink and eat.

The night was late, the moon had set in the west, and the two of them cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks. Return to the house.

Yang Shucheng was lying on the bed, thinking that this is a paradise, what does the hero outside the mountain have to do with himself?

But I thought that my sister Yang Yan was not found, and my father's revenge was not avenged. Living here by yourself, happy and happy, can you really hide from everything? Can you really have peace of mind?

In Youxiang Valley, staying for seven or eight days, Yang Shucheng had to harden his heart to separate from Mu Lan.

Mullan was not sad, as if she had known that this day would come, and she was ready.

She just brought Yang Shucheng's horse back from the hillside, and then went to the front of the house to put away Yang Shucheng's clothes for drying, folded them on the bed, and put them in the baggage.

Mu Lan handed the burden to Yang Shucheng and waited for him to leave.

Yang Shucheng said: "I will come back." ”

"I know." She whispered.

Yang Shucheng suddenly felt that his heart was so hard, and he really wanted to turn his head and not go again.

However, everything is irreparable, and Yang Shucheng only comforts himself with his mother at home.

The two walked out of the valley of Youxiang and walked on the path, and a little yellow bird kept following them.

Walking out of the trail, it was seven or eight miles away from Youxiang Valley, Yang Shucheng didn't say to let Mu Lan go back, and Mu Lan didn't mean to go back, so he kept accompanying Yang Shucheng to walk forward.

After walking seven or eight miles away, they came to the avenue, and the two had to separate.

Yang Shucheng said: "Mu Lan, you go back, maybe, I will come back in a few months." ”

Mu Lan said: "I'm fine, I'll send you again." ”

Yang Shucheng said: "You can't go back to the military Banhe with me, the scenery there is no less than Youxiang Valley." If you don't get used to it, that place is very big, you can choose a good place to stay. ”

Mu Lan said: "I have been in Dabie Mountain since I was a child, and I am very familiar with this place, and I can't do without it. Go away with peace of mind and leave me alone. ”

Yang Shucheng wanted to comfort her, but he wanted to comfort her with a few empty words, so it was better not to say it.

The two of them were on the avenue, and they walked more than ten miles away, and at this time, they were walking in a large canyon, walking uphill.

At this time, I heard the sound of killing on the slope.

The two of them hurriedly ran up the hill and looked down the slope, and sure enough, they saw that the two groups of people were killing lively.

On one side are Qing soldiers, just look at their costumes, and on the other side are people wearing various costumes, but Yang Shucheng recognizes them.

Because their leader is Chen Jiagui.

Chen Jiagui led people to kill Mu Lan's home and burned her Xiaoyao Villa.

I wonder if Mu Lan still holds a grudge?

Yang Shucheng looked at Mu Lan.

Mu Lan immediately understood what Yang Shucheng meant, and said slowly: "After such a long time, I don't have any hatred in my heart, not to mention that my godfather did something hurtful." ”

Yang Shucheng said: "This is the Qing soldiers, they came all the way south, burned a lot of villages, and killed a lot of ordinary people. ”

Mu Lan said: "If you want to help him, help him." ”

Yang Shucheng said: "You won't blame me? ”

Mu Lan said: "Although I live in seclusion in the valley of Youxiang, I often go out of the valley and know the strength of the Qing soldiers. I'll help you kill the Qing soldiers. ”

Yang Shucheng was relieved.

It turned out that Chen Jiagui had a lot of power before, captured several county towns around Xinyang, and also had thousands of men and horses, thinking that he could divide the place and be a grass king.

How do you know that the Qing soldiers went south, attacked several county towns, and drove Chen Jiagui out of the city, he could not survive, so he had to retreat to Xiaoyao Villa, but he was not used to seeing the Qing soldiers burning, killing and looting, so he went out of the mountains from time to time to harass the Qing army.

The Qing army couldn't bear it anymore, so they had to mobilize a large army to encircle and suppress Chen Jiagui.

These Qing troops were all brave and good at fighting, Chen Jiagui was defeated, withdrew from Xiaoyao Villa, and came all the way to the south of Dabie Mountain.

Seeing the victory, the Qing army wanted to completely eliminate Chen Jiagui and prevent future troubles, so they led their men and horses to chase and kill Chen Jiagui.

On this day, the Qing army got the news of Chen Jiagui and set up an ambush here, and when Chen Jiagui led his subordinates, they were surrounded and killed by the Qing soldiers.

At this time, Chen Jiagui had only two or three hundred men under him, and the Qing soldiers and the surrendered Ming army combined with seven or eight hundred people.

For the Ming army, Chen Jiagui didn't care about it, but the Qing army drove the Ming soldiers to rush to the front, and they stood on the periphery just shooting arrows.

In this way, Chen Jiagui had to deal with the Ming army again, and he had to beware of the Qing Dynasty's feather arrows, so dozens of his subordinates on his side were soon stabbed and fell to the ground. For a while, the screams were endless.

According to the situation, Chen Jiagui was extremely difficult to deal with, so he had to explain to his subordinates, and it was important to flee for his life as soon as possible.

But the inside was dragged by the Ming army, and there were Qing soldiers shooting arrows on the periphery, and it was impossible to escape.

had to turn around and kill with the Ming army. But there are fewer and fewer people on their own side.

was in danger, and at this time, Yang Shucheng and Miss Mulan rushed down from the hillside.

Yang Shucheng and the others also understood the situation, they bypassed this group of people who were fighting, and ran towards the Qing soldiers.

The Qing soldier saw the two of them running like flying, and knew that it was powerful, so he turned his feather arrow and shot at the two of them.

That Chen Jiagui is also a powerful person, and when he saw that the threat of the feather arrow was greatly reduced, he shouted loudly and led his subordinates to kill the Ming soldiers together.

These Ming soldiers are all afraid of death, where is this group of wolf-like people, chased and killed by Chen Jiagui and others who chopped melons and vegetables, and fled one after another.

The general of the Qing army saw that he was about to succeed, but he was disrupted by Yang Shucheng and the two who broke in halfway, and he was angry and shot at these two people together.

The two men hurriedly brandished their swords and struck the flying feathered arrows. For a while, the arrows were like flying locusts, all of which were blocked under the feet of the two and fell to the ground.

But the feather arrows are powerful, but the two of them can't take a step forward.

Over there, the Qing generals drove the Ming army towards Chen Jiagui.

The two sides are heavily killed in one place, making a desperate kill, and victory or defeat is in this battle.

Soon, people on both sides fell to the ground like straw, and blood was already flowing all over the ground.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Yang Shucheng hurriedly performed the Taiqing light skill, which unfolded, like a gust of wind, flying a few steps to the east, running a few steps to the west, and rushing towards the Qing army's position like a whirlwind.
