Set off again

Section 43 Departure Again

Liang Ming came to Liang Jian's house, knocked on the door, and heard Liang Jian's voice from inside: "It's Xiao Ming, find me something, come in." ”

Liang Ming pushed open the door and walked in, looked at Liang Jian and said, "Grandpa, I ......"

Liang Jian said: "What are you doing with all the spitting? If you have something, just say it, where is a big man's family like a talk? ”

Liang Ming said: "Grandpa, then I said, we will leave in two days, we will go to the eldest brother's house together, because we have all said that the four brothers will go together, and the situation is a little different, this time we must be together and not separated." ”

Liang Jian said: "Must be together? ”

Liang Ming said: "We must be together!" ”

Liang Jian said: "Okay, then you remember to make it clear to your parents, and you can accompany them well in the next few days." ”

Liang Ming agreed, walked out of the door, and then came to Gu Yi and said, "My grandfather agreed." ”

Gu Yi looked at Liang Ming and said, "Is it so fast?" Your grandfather said yes so quickly? I didn't want to keep you, did I? ”

Liang Ming said: "No, I told my grandfather, and my grandfather didn't say anything, so he directly promised to let me go with you." ”

Gu Yi knew that this was Grandpa Liang's recognition of us, and then said, "Then we will leave in two days, and you will accompany your uncle and aunt at home for the next few days." ”

Time passed quickly, and the time of two days was up, and Gu Yi and the others also packed up their salutes and came to the living room, and everyone was waiting for them in the hall as if they had just arrived.

Gu Yi took the lead in front of Liang Jian and said, "Grandpa, we have been bothering you here for the past few days, we are leaving today, and I hope that grandpa, uncles, and aunts can take care of their health." After speaking, Gu Yi began to salute everyone, and several people behind him also followed Gu Yi.

Liang Jian also walked up to Gu Yi and held his hand and said: "Xiao Yi, Xiao Ming will hand it over to you, what is there to forbear, I know that you have a deep brotherhood, no matter how much I say, it will be in vain, but you must pay attention to everything when you go out, don't be strong." Go, go, have a good trip. After saying that, he patted his shoulder.

Gu Yi turned around and left, walked to Liang Ming's side and said, "Say goodbye to your family, we will wait for you outside, don't be in a hurry and take your time." After speaking, Gu Yi took a few people and left the Liang Mansion first, waiting for Liang Ming at the gate.

Liang Ming also knelt down directly to his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, my grandson is going to travel and can't serve in front of the elders, so I ask the elders for forgiveness." ”

Liang Jian helped Liang Ming, who was kneeling on the ground, up and said: "Good men are ambitious in all directions, don't be involved in these family bonds, don't worry about doing your things boldly, we are your strong backing, go, your eldest brother is still waiting for you outside." ”

Liang Ming looked at his grandfather, and then turned his head to look at his parents, Liang's father was fine, Liang's mother couldn't help it at this time, tears were already rolling in her eyes, Liang Ming walked in front of his parents, just wanted to bow down to his parents but was stopped by Liang's father and Liang's mother, Liang's mother said: "Go, pay attention to safety on the road, come back when you are homesick." Liang's father nodded in agreement with Liang's mother's words.

When Liang Ming still wanted to say goodbye one by one, Liang Jian said: "Okay, okay, it's not that we can't see each other, it's not too early, they still have to hurry, let him go, go, your eldest brother and they should be in a hurry." ”

Liang Ming didn't hesitate to bow to the family again, and after bowing, he turned around and walked out of the Liang Mansion, and as soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Gu Yi waiting for them at the door, Liang Ming came to Gu Yi and said, "Big brother, let's go." I've said goodbye to my family. ”

Gu Yi said, "Then let's set off." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Liang Ailing running out and walking to the door and shouting, "Brother." Liang Ming heard another person shouting about himself, and then turned around and saw Liang Ailing running over and hugging Liang Ming with tears in her eyes, Liang Ming touched her head and said: "You girl, what are you doing, brother is not not coming back, okay, don't cry, brother is leaving, you take good care of your parents at home." ”

Liang Ailing also let go of Liang Ming when she heard what Liang Ming said, and said with tears in her eyes: "That brother, you have to come back early." I will take care of my parents, don't worry. ”

Liang Ming smiled and said, "You stupid girl, I still have to go to school, and I'll come back as soon as I finish my studies." ”

Liang Ailing nodded and then returned to the gate and waved goodbye to Liang Ming and the others, Liang Ming also waved to him, and then followed Gu Yi on the way home, and when Gu Yi found Boss Zhao, he first asked: "Is there anything abnormal in the Wang family?" ”

Boss Zhao said: "There is nothing abnormal, they are all looking for the person who kidnapped Wang Lin that night, but in the past few days, I really want to give up and turn over this city and I haven't found a suspicious person." They even put the gold coins according to the note we wrote, and did not wait for a day where the ambush was. ”

Gu Yi said: "Then don't care about him, we will pack up and prepare to leave Liangcheng." ”

Boss Zhao said, "Childe, are you ready to leave today?" ”

Gu Yi said: "Yes, we will set off after packing up, the little rabbit and the little snake are going to buy dry food, and then wait for us at the city gate." ”

Boss Zhao said: "Wait a minute, then the boy, let's take the salute, there's nothing to clean up." ”

Gu Yi said: "Okay, then I'll wait for you at the door of the inn." After that, he went to the door of the inn and waited.

After a while, Boss Zhao took everyone down, and in this way, more than ten people walked towards the city gate again, still the guards who welcomed them into the city, and saw Liang Ming with a salute and a group of people who were about to go out, and hurriedly went up to say goodbye to Liang Ming, and then more than ten people went out of the city gate to see where the little rabbit and the little snake were waiting for a long time.

In this way, the sixteen people set off again, preparing to go to Gu Yi's hometown, and this time the distance was relatively far, and it took nearly ten days or so to arrive, because the distance was relatively far, so the sixteen people did not stop but accelerated their speed. When everyone drove the journey halfway, Di Qing walked to Gu Yi and said, "Big brother, we have been in a hurry for a few days, do you want to take a break, and there is no need to be in such a hurry, besides, the distance is halfway, let's walk slowly on the rest of the road, anyway, it is still a long time." ”

Gu Yi felt that what Di Qing said made sense, and then said to everyone: "Everyone has worked hard, let's walk slowly for the rest of the journey, and enjoy the scenery along the way, but now it's getting dark, and there is no town here, we have been sleeping in the open for a few days, how about we go to the village in front of us to spend the night." ”

Everyone was already very happy when they heard Gu Yi say that they didn't have to sleep out tonight, and then asked Boss Zhao to go to the small village in front of them to ask if they could let us all spend the night for one night, and we could pay. Hearing Gu Yi's order, Boss Zhao immediately ran towards the village, and when he looked at it, he knew that he definitely didn't want to sleep in the open.

After a while, Boss Zhao ran over and told Gu Yi that the village chief agreed to let them move in, but they said that they didn't need money and let us live as we pleased. Hearing Boss Zhao's words, Gu Yi led everyone to the village, and as soon as he arrived in the village, he saw the village chief standing at the entrance of the village to welcome them, Gu Yi hurriedly went up to thank the village chief for taking them in, and then said to the village chief: "Village, thank you." ”

The village looked at a group of young people, but the only one who looked older than Zhao Boss stood behind Gu Yi, and the village chief knew that the young man in front of him was not ordinary, and he walked in front alone, and the rest of the people followed him, it seemed that this young man had strength.

The village chief said to Gu Yi: "Young man, you can lead so many people at such a young age." What do you do at home? ”

Gu Yi said: "The village chief said with a smile, I am a farmer like you, I just go to school, if I don't go to school, I will be an ordinary farmer like your old man, these are not my subordinates, they are all my classmates and friends, we are just traveling together this time, the world is not peaceful, so there are more people, at least no one dares to bully us." ”

When the village chief heard it, it made sense and said: "That's right, it's better to go out now, the world is not peaceful, I think how could there be such chaos in the world when His Majesty the Emperor was alive, hey." Needless to say, you come with me, I have prepared two empty rooms for you, both of which were lived by the villagers themselves in the past, but they moved away later, so they stayed. Where are you staying for tonight? ”

But when the village chief saw that there were a lot of people and there were two girls, the village chief just wanted to speak, Gu Yi said: "Village chief, two rooms are enough, let's live in two parts, and don't care about this girl, she will follow the two of them wherever I go, and they won't go if you want them to live elsewhere." ”

The village chief looked at the two girls and then looked at Gu Yi, and then said with a smile: "Young man, what a blessing." Let's go, just two steps ahead. After speaking, the village chief walked a few steps and took Gu Yi and them to their resting residence, and then pushed open the door and told Gu Yi: "Young man, you will be wronged to live here today, although it is a little simple, but it can also help you shelter from the wind and rain, you can rest well, and I will bring you some food later." ”

Before Gu Yi said no, the village chief walked out, and after a while, he brought some villagers to Gu Yi's room with food, put the food in front of Gu Yi, and said: "Everyone is tired for a day, you shouldn't have eaten well, we have prepared some food for everyone tonight, it is not particularly hearty, please don't dislike it." ”

Gu Yi said: "Village chief, we don't dislike it, you can take us in, we are already very grateful to you, I don't know how to thank you for sending us food, fourth brother." ”

Hearing Gu Yi call himself, Liang Ming must know what to do, and immediately took out a bag of gold coins from his arms and handed it to Gu Yi, Gu Yi put it into the hands of the village chief, and the village chief postponed it back and forth, but no matter how he pushed Gu Yi into his arms, the village chief couldn't help it, so he had to put it away, and then said: "You give too much, you can't ask for so much at all." ”

Gu Yi said: "The extra is to thank everyone for taking us in and preparing room and food for us, just as a little thank you for us." ”

The village chief had no choice but to say, "Then I won't disturb your rest, you can rest well tonight." After saying that, the village chief left Gu Yi's room.

Gu Yi said to everyone: "Eat, rest early after eating, and everyone will squeeze in today." ”

Di Qing also said: "Wait for everyone to finish eating, go to that room and squeeze it, this room is reserved for your son, the rabbit, and the snake." As soon as Di Qing said this, the little rabbit and the little snake's little faces turned red, and Gu Yi gave Di Qing a blank eye.

At this time, Yang Lengyun suddenly spoke: "The three of them sleep in one room, it's not appropriate for so many of us to squeeze together." As soon as he finished speaking, Liang Ming went up directly and covered Yang Lengyun's mouth, and then said: "According to what the second brother said, that house is relatively big, and it's no problem for us to squeeze it, so let the eldest brother live here." ”

Everyone pursed their mouths, and then buried their heads in eating, and Yang Lengyun pulled Liang Ming's hand away with his hand, and just wanted to speak, Liang Ming's other hand sealed Yang Lengyun's mouth again and said, "Third brother, can you eat quietly." ”

After everyone finished eating, they all got up and walked out of Gu Yi's room, Gu Yi watched them leave one by one, and then shouted: "What are you doing, don't go, I'll squeeze with you when you go." As soon as he walked to the door, he was pushed back by Di Qing and said, "Big brother, it wasn't crowded over there, but you must have become very crowded in the past, you should still live here." After speaking, he pushed Gu Yi back into the room with a hard push, and closed the door with his hand, leaving Gu Yi and the little rabbit and the little snake in the room.

On the other side, Yang Lengyun was still complaining: "You are really not afraid of crowding, there are so many of us crammed into one room, it's not appropriate, what do you think?" ”

Liang Ming asked curiously: "Third brother, you don't have any eyesight, you don't even look at it, do you?" ”

Yang Lengyun hugged Liang Ming directly and locked his throat, and then said, "You kid, how did you talk to the third brother." ”

Di Qing also said on the side: "You let him go, third brother, I don't think there is a problem at all with what the fourth brother said, you really don't have a little eye, think about it carefully, think about the eldest brother and the little rabbit and the little snake." ”

Yang Lengyun looked at Di Qing, then let go of Liang Ming and said, "What do you want?" Little Rabbit and Little Snake don't take care of the eldest brother's daily life, what's the matter, I just sleep in a house and don't ask them to take care of me. ”

As soon as these words came out, Di Qing and Liang Ming looked at Yang Lengyun and didn't know what to say for a while, anyway, they were speechless at the moment, Di Qing pulled Liang Ming in to prepare to rest, and then said to Yang Lengyun: "I don't care if you need someone to take care of you, in short, you are not allowed to live in a room with your eldest brother on the next road." Yang Lengyun still wanted to speak, but Di Qing glared, and Yang Lengyun said helplessly: "Okay, what are you doing if you don't stop staring." ”

Di Qing looked at Yang Lengyun muttering outside, and shouted, "You can't get in, if you don't sleep, we're going to sleep, I'm going to close the door." Yang Lengyun ran in with a sigh.

Back to Gu Yi, the air became extraordinarily quiet or awkward, Gu Yi scratched his head and said, "You two sleep on the bed, I'll sleep on the table." After speaking, he took the things on the table away, and drank saliva to relieve the embarrassment.

The little snake said, "Childe, what are you sleeping on the table, this bed is so big, let's sleep together." Hearing this, Gu Yi almost didn't squirt out the water he just drank, but instead of squirting, he choked on himself, cough cough, Gu Yi swallowed his saliva and said, "It's okay, it's good for me to sleep here." Sleep in your bed. ”

Little Rabbit said: "Childe, you are shy, it's okay Childe, you sleep while I sleep with the little snake, and the two of us should stay away from you." ”

Gu Yi still wanted to speak, but the little snake said, "Yes, Childe, wouldn't it be nice to keep a little distance between us?" If you're going to shirk it, we'll sleep at the table with you. ”

Gu Yi really didn't know what to say, so he could only obediently prepare to go to bed, but the little rabbit said, "Childe, wait a minute, let me go and get you some water to wash up." Before Gu Yi could speak, the little rabbit ran out. After Gu Yi finished washing, several people turned off the lights and went to sleep, while Gu Yi shrank on the side of the bed and didn't dare to move.

The next day, early in the morning, Di Qing and Liang Ming were lying on the door of Gu Yi's room and began to eavesdrop inside. At this time, Gu Yi didn't dare to move all night, so he got up early, and when he opened the door, he saw Di Qing and Liang Ming lying on the door, and as soon as the door opened, they almost fell down. Gu Yi looked at the two of them and said, "What are you two doing?" ”

Di Qing asked, "Big brother, how did you rest last night?" ”

Gu Yi twisted his body and said, "It's not good, my back hurts, I haven't slept well all night." ”

Hearing this, Di Qing and Liang Ming covered their mouths and didn't dare to laugh, Gu Yi looked at the expressions of the two and hurriedly shook his hand and said, "It's not what you think, I didn't do anything last night, I just curled up and slept, so my back hurts." ”

Di Qing coughed softly, then motioned to Liang Ming to put away his smile and said, "Big brother, it's okay, we didn't think about anything." ”

Gu Yi saw that he couldn't explain clearly, and hurriedly said, "Can you go find something to eat first, and after eating, we can set off on our way, okay?" ”

Di Qing said: "Big brother, don't worry, Boss Zhao has already gone, and he should be back at this time." As soon as he finished speaking, he watched Boss Zhao walk towards Gu Yi with a few people with food in their hands, and when he walked up to Gu Yi, he said, "Childe, this is the food prepared for us in the village." ”

Gu Yi said: "Then let everyone eat, and we will set off after eating." "After everyone had breakfast, Gu Yi took everyone to the village chief to say goodbye, and the village chief also sent everyone to the entrance of the village, and then Gu Yi began to go on the road again, and when Gu Yi and his party had not gone far, they saw a group of people riding horses and shouting: "Get out of the way, fuck you don't want to live, get out of the way." Gu Yi hurriedly got out of the way, and this group of people passed by Gu Yi and them, all with weapons in their hands, and walked towards Gu Yi's rear.

Looking at the direction they were going, Yang Lengyun said at this time: "Aren't they bandits, they look like robbing houses." Gu Yi heard Yang Lengyun's words, and then looked at Di Qing, Di Qing also thought of it at this time, Gu Yi said: "Could it be really a bandit, then there should only be one village in this direction." ”

Di Qing nodded, and then Gu Yi said, "Let's go, let's go back, quickly." After saying that, Gu Yi took the lead and ran to the village, and the rest of the people saw Gu Yi running and hurriedly followed.

Just as Gu Yi thought, they went to the village where Gu Yi and they stayed yesterday, and this group of people is not bandits, but bullies in this area, often come to these small villages to collect protection money, in fact, to rob food, gold and silver. When this group of people came to the village, they arrested the village chief and asked him to gather all the villagers to bring their belongings here and hand them over.

Before the village chief could resist, he saw the knife against his neck and said to him: "If you don't cooperate, I will kill all the people in your village, and you won't believe it or not." Tell them not to resist. ”

The village chief saw that there were a lot of these bullies and they all used knives in their hands, so he hurriedly told everyone: "Everyone, don't resist, we give them things, and they all listen to me when it matters to save their lives." Hearing what the village chief said, all the villagers did not dare to resist and had to hand over their belongings, but at this time the bully said, "Let's take a look at each house, in case you miss something, it's not good." After that, he told his men to prepare to search the house.

Just as these people were about to enter the house, a voice was heard: "Whoever enters the house, die." ”

When the village chief looked back, he saw that Gu Yi had returned with everyone.
