Chapter 88: Out of the Valley

Liangchen understood the reason, she didn't expect this Xu Zhitang to be the descendant of the heroes of Wagangzhai. Wagang heroes have always been praised by people in the rivers and lakes, because several of them are also characters in the rivers and lakes. , is regarded as a fellow predecessor by the people in the rivers and lakes.

Shan Xiongxin was originally born in the green forest, and he was famous in the rivers and lakes. Qin Shubao is a fast catcher, and many of the fast catchers themselves come from the rivers and lakes, or the divisions have close contacts with the people in the rivers and lakes. If Qin Shubao wants to hunt down criminals, he will definitely deal with the people of the rivers and lakes.

In the end, these people became famous and famous heroes in the world, won glory for the people in the rivers and lakes, and they were naturally respected by the people in the rivers and lakes. In particular, less than a hundred years have passed since the Wagang incident, and the deeds of many Wagang heroes have been passed down by word of mouth and are widely circulated among the people.

The three of Feiyun are walking the rivers and lakes, and they often hear the stories of the heroes of Wagang who are chivalrous and righteous, and they naturally admire them very much.

Liangchen thought for a while and said: "Since Xu Zhitang is a descendant of Wagang, and his grandfather is a hero of the imperial court, it is simple, and Madame admires him more, why not find some other descendants of Wagang to reconcile in the middle?" ”

Shangguan Wan'er looked embarrassed and said, "Miss Liangchen, although your suggestion is good, it is impossible to implement it. There are no descendants of those Wagang in the imperial court for a long time, and the whereabouts of these people are not clear. ”

Liangchen asked strangely: "Isn't there any descendant among these Wagang heroes?" Or is there no connection between the descendants of these Wagangs, and the relationship is estranged? ”

Shangguan Wan'er hesitated for a moment and said: "Most of the heroes of Wagang have descendants, but they don't want to be officials, so the court naturally can't force them. As for whether there is a connection between them, no one else can know. ”

When Liangchen heard this, he looked at the expressions of Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er, and immediately understood the reason. Liangchen knew that this must be because these people did not support Wu Zetian, and regarded Wu Zetian as a traitor who usurped the throne, so he naturally did not want to be an official.

At this time, Wu Zetian had already relieved herself, and she immediately asked, "Girl, how many people are there in Xu Zhitang's group?" ”

Liangchen hesitated for a moment, she didn't want to tell Wu Zetian the truth, so as not to be unfavorable to Xu Zhitang and the others, so she said vaguely: "I think there are about fifty or sixty people!" ”

Wu Zetian was shocked, she thought to herself that Liangchen had only seen the situation on one hillside, and if you added people on another hillside, there would be at least hundreds of people.

Wu Zetian muttered to himself: "Fortunately, they didn't rush down the hillside, otherwise with the situation at that time, the guards would definitely not be able to resist, and we would inevitably all suffer!" ”

Liangchen knew that Wu Zetian had misunderstood what he meant, Liangchen

The people on both sides of the hill have been counted. Liangchen didn't say anything, and felt that it was good to make Wu Zetian feel some pressure, so he gave up the idea of going to Yuquan Temple.

Wu Zetian then asked: "Girl, you said that they have such a big advantage, why don't they rush to the bottom directly?" ”

Liangchen was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and replied: "I think Xu Zhitang may not be sure and doesn't want to take risks, so he didn't rush over!" ”

Wu Zetian nodded and said, "What you say is reasonable. This Xu Zhitang seems to care about his subordinates very much and doesn't want to lose too much. Thankfully, you restrained the apricot girl, and he had to withdraw. It is estimated that this apricot girl is a very important person, otherwise Xu Zhitang would not have retreated so easily! ”

Liangchen said with a smile: "That Xing'er is Xu Zhitang's junior sister, so she is naturally a very important person for him." If someone else catches me and Meijing and threatens my eldest brother, my eldest brother can only give in! ”

Wu Zetian glanced at Feiyun and said, "I don't doubt this, your brother and sister's feelings are so deep, even if Lin Shaoxia doesn't want his own life, he won't let you be hurt in the slightest!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er suddenly interjected and asked, "Miss Liangchen, what if others really use your and Meijing girl's lives to blackmail Lin Shaoxia and be unfavorable to Madame?" What do you do? Lin Shaoxia, what do you say? ”

Liangchen was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer. Shangguan Wan'er actually asked such a difficult question, which was completely surprising to Liangchen. If Liangchen said that he didn't even want his own life for the sake of Wu Zetian, I'm afraid even Liangchen himself wouldn't believe it.

But if Liangchen said that for the sake of her own life, let Feiyun attack Wu Zetian, it is undoubtedly unspeakable. Liangchen was in a dilemma, so he had to keep silent and look at Feiyun in embarrassment.

Feiyun replied aloud without hesitation, "Miss Shangguan, you don't have to test us with such words. Mrs. Li is as important as my two sisters, and we will not let this happen! ”

Feiyun thought to himself, Wu Zetian is an incomparably noble god to you Shangguan Wan'er. For the three heroes of Xiaoxiang, Wu Zetian is not an important figure.

How could Feiyun give up his life for Wu Zetian and beautiful scenery? Not to mention that it is not good for Wu Zetian, even if Wu Zetian is killed, Feiyun will not hesitate to do it! Of course, Feiyun can't say that.

At this time, Wu Zetian reprimanded Shangguan Wan, saying that she had nothing to do, and raised such an embarrassing question. Wu Zetian told Feiyun and the three that if this situation really happened, he could leave her alone. You can't put the lives of two young girls on the line for the sake of an old woman who is about to die.

Wu Zetian said impassionedly, of course the three of Feiyun would not believe it. But Wu Zetian can have such a statement, which is not bad. Liangchen hurriedly claimed that a little person like himself could not let Wu Zetian make such a sacrifice.

Just at this time, Wu Wei came over with Wu Yuan and Wu Yong, saying that he wanted to report the losses of the attack to Wu Zetian, and everyone stopped arguing. In fact, they know each other in their hearts, but they just don't want to break it.

Wu Zetian looked at Wu Wei and asked heavily, "Have the brothers settled down yet?" ”

Wu Wei said with a solemn expression: "Tell Madam, this time there are twenty warriors killed, four are seriously injured, six are lightly injured, and only five are fine. The fallen warriors have been properly buried, and after returning to Beijing, they will send someone to invite them back! ”

Wu Zetian said sadly: "You must remember the names of the warriors, and you must never forget them. After returning to Beijing, it is necessary to pay more attention to their families and let the warriors return to heaven with peace of mind. ”

Wu Wei agreed one by one, and suggested that Wu Zetian set off immediately and leave this dangerous place. It's just that he said that the horses were all dead, so he could only ask Wu Zetian to walk.

Feiyun immediately said that the horses of the four of them would be ridden by Wu Zetian and the others, so as not to delay time. Wu Wei was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked Feiyun.

Wu Wei led the horses to Wu Zetian, Shangguan Wan'er and Zhang Changzong one by one, and Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er got on the horses one after another. But when Zhang Changzong was about to get on the horse, he was stopped by the beautiful scenery.

Zhang Changzong asked in surprise: "Miss Meijing, why don't you let me get on the horse?" In front of the beautiful scenery, Zhang Changzong didn't dare to be presumptuous, afraid that she would do it.

Meijing snorted coldly and said, "You are a big man, what kind of horse are you going to ride." Didn't Master Wu just say that there were four seriously injured people? The horse was given to those who were seriously injured and could not move. ”

As soon as Meijing's voice fell, Furong hurriedly said, "There is also my horse, and the master will take it together." I'm walking with my two sisters!"

Although Shangguan Wan'er was a little reluctant, she had to express something, and hurriedly said: "Master Wu, I will also get off the horse and walk, and let the injured ride a horse!" ”

Wu Wei saw that Shangguan Wan'er was about to get off the horse, and immediately said: "Shangguan girl, you don't need to get off the horse, two horses are enough." It's going to get dark now, and if you don't ride a horse, you'll be delayed! ”

Shangguan Wan'er said to Zhang Changzong: "Lord Zhang, why don't you come and ride my horse?" ”

Meijing was furious and shouted to Zhang Changzong: "The surname is Zhang, let me tell you, our horse, you are not qualified to ride." If someone like you rides our horse, he will get our horse dirty! ”

Zhang Changzong was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick, but he didn't dare to attack. Wu Zetian had already seen that Meijing was deliberately embarrassed, and Zhang Changzong deliberately embarrassed him.

Wu Zetian knew that Meijing had the same personality, and in such a thing, Feiyun and Liangchen would not dismantle her stage. After all, the two of them didn't have a good impression of Zhang Changzong, and Liangchen had just scolded Zhang Changzong, and he was even more happy to see Zhang Changzong's jokes.

Wu Zetian immediately told Zhang Changzong not to fight and walk quickly, so as not to delay time. Zhang Changzong saw that Wu Zetian had spoken, so he had to agree.

Wu Wei handed over the two horses to Wu Yuan and asked him to arrange them. Then he asked Wu Zetian to set off, and Wu Zetian nodded in agreement. Wu Wei asked Wu Meng to bring two guards to explore the way ahead, and he, Wu Yong and the remaining three guards walked in front of Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er followed Wu Wei on horseback, and Zhang Changzong and Furong walked on Wu Zetian's horse side respectively. Feiyun and Liangchen and Meijing followed behind to protect Wu Zetian. Wu Yuan, with ten wounded guards, walked at the rear.

After a while, the group left the valley. There is a forest in front of it, and you can vaguely see that it is a field after the woods. Since there is a village not far ahead, everyone is naturally happy. That way, you don't have to sleep in the wilderness.

Wu Wei saw Wu Meng and the three of them enter the woods from a distance, and the woods were quiet. When Wu Wei arrived at the edge of the woods, he didn't hear any movement, so he thought that Wu Meng must have noticed nothing unusual, so he went straight over.

Thinking of this, Wu Wei took a big step and walked into the woods. Everyone saw that Wu Wei stopped for a moment before continuing to go in, knowing that he had not found anything abnormal, so they naturally followed with confidence.

It didn't take long for the group to come to the depths of the woods. At this time, the sky slowly darkened, and everyone was worried that they would not be able to find a place to stay before dark, so they hurriedly stepped up.

At this moment, a whistling sound was suddenly heard, and five people jumped down from the tree in front of them, blocking the way. Then seven or eight people rushed out from both sides of the woods, and stood behind five people.

Wu Wei was shocked and hurriedly looked at the other party carefully. I saw that this group of people were all dressed in black and masked, holding swords in their hands, and their momentum was overwhelming.

Among the five people standing on the opposite side, the one standing in the center seemed to be a middle-aged woman with her hairstyle. To her left appear to be two young men, and to her right appear to be two young women.

Wu Wei hurriedly asked Wu Yong and the others to prepare in case of an accident. Wu Zetian saw that someone was blocking the road, so he hurriedly dismounted with Shangguan Wan'er, and Zhang Changzong hurriedly stood by Wu Zetian's side.
