Chapter 5 The mountain rain is coming

As soon as you go to the high city, you will be sad, and the willows will be like Tingzhou.

The clouds of the river are rising and the sun is sinking, and the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings.

Under the birds, the green Qinyuan is in the evening, and the cicadas are singing in the autumn of the Han Palace.

Pedestrians don't ask about the year, so the east of the country comes to Weishui.

Caesar led the group back into the small mountain village, where he won a respite. I went back and counted the number of people, twelve people, one is not less. Everyone began to open the various mechanisms in full swing. After living in a small mountain village for half a year, Caesar and others have set up a lot of traps and traps in this place. When discussing with Du Wu last night about the countermeasures for retreating, he specifically mentioned the news of the agency, which is why Du Wu dared to spend the night here.

The sun is gradually rising, the season is almost the beginning of summer, and the sun is a little poisonous. Although it rained two days ago, this rain did not help the long-dry land at all, and after a while, the rogues facing each other outside the small mountain village began to lie in the east and west. Zhang Mazi wanted to discuss with Xiaobaimian, but the man didn't mean to look down on him at all. Since the sneak attack on Qingzhou and the loss of people, his position in the cottage has become delicate, if it weren't for the little white face seeing him a little forceful, maybe he would have been killed in a certain sleep.

Zhang Mazi was entangled, and suddenly there was an exclamation from the rear, and then he saw a round of javelin rain thrown over, and the rogues couldn't care about fatigue, so they jumped up to dodge, fortunately, there were not many javelins, and when everyone was looking for the source of javelins, another round of javelin rain was thrown, and this time the lethality was even less. Zhang Mazi gritted his teeth in anger, it turned out that there was a team behind the hillside, forming a phalanx, with big shields, spears, and helmets, and they were pressing over step by step.

The crowd began to meet the enemy in a hurry, and the little white face was gloomy. He never expected this to be the case. At first, he just wanted to get a vote from the disaster relief officials who returned to Beijing, and then leave Qingzhou to occupy the mountain elsewhere. I didn't want to be frustrated again and again, and I also let myself lose my troops. Although it is a famine era, and a large number of people can be recruited if they have food, the lack of organization and discipline also gives him a headache. The last time he robbed Qingzhou Mansion, the one who died the most was the patriarch of the cottage, which made him hate Zhang Mazi every time he saw it. I didn't expect to face this situation again today, which made his nameless karmic fire rise all of a sudden: "Shaft! It's so deceitful! ”

Seeing that he was angry, his cronies involuntarily shrank their heads. He knows his boss too well, and the last time he got angry was last year when Qingzhou Wanderer led people to arrest him, and he led people and horses down the mountain stream, and he also stabbed seven people. Since then, Qingzhou Taishou has never dared to send people to trouble them easily. It seems that this gang of unknown origins has annoyed the boss this time.

The little white face shouted: "The second and third sons are not allowed to move, and the violators will be killed!" ”

After speaking, he walked out of the crowd, looked at the Roman family who was slowly pressing forward on the opposite side, and said loudly: "Who is leading the army on the other side, why is it blocking our way, do you dare to come out and talk about it?" ”

The Roman phalanx on the opposite side also stopped, because the rogues had slowly formed a square formation, and Zhang Mazi was still standing at the front of the line with an axe. Since Caesar was not in the array, the Roman family could not answer the other party, so they had to continue to press forward. As soon as the two sides came into contact, they heard the sound of the banging shield and body contact, and the rogue in front of him was directly knocked out by the big shield of the Roman family, and then a spear stabbed out of the gap in the shield, and he pulled back after only one stab, and the action was neat, as if he had rehearsed countless times in advance. The first to rush up the rogue fell to the ground, the back of a look can not resist, turned around and wanted to go back, at this time Caesar who hid in the village again led people to kill, the huge shield with the inertia of rushing forward suddenly hit the rogue who was about to retreat, directly pressed the person to the ground, only heard a click, I don't know where the bones on the body were crushed, blood oozed from the corners of the mouth, the head tilted, no longer conscious.

It wasn't until he saw the sergeant sent by Yanzhou Taishou that Du Wu's heart settled down a little. To be honest, he didn't know if Zhang Mazi would catch up, let alone Zhang Mazi really chased after him, how long Caesar and they could resist, after all, there were only more than 20 people, and the difference in strength was too great. Therefore, I hurried with Lin Lan along the way, for fear of falling into danger again.

Yanzhou is also one of the five states that were more seriously affected, fortunately, Yanzhou is relatively close to Sili, at the same time that Du Wu went to Qingzhou for disaster relief, Wang Mang also sent high-ranking officials to Yanzhou for disaster relief, when Yanzhou began to bury the corpses and clean up the sanitation, Qingzhou has just entered the stage of Yizi and food, so the situation in Yanzhou is much better. Yanzhou Taishou took Lin Du and the others into the Assassin's Mansion, and the three of them talked about the disaster in the two states, and talked about the bus commander who was killed by the rogue, and couldn't help but sigh. Du Wu and the others rested for a day in Yanzhou and decided to ride back to Chang'an. A major drought cut off the flow of the Yellow River, and the original waterway had to be abandoned.

The little white face withdrew, and this pursuit was a loss-making deal for him. There were only more than 70 people left in the original team of more than 120 people, and they were all wounded, and a few of them were more seriously injured and directly abandoned, maybe they would be eaten by wild dogs foraging for food that night, he couldn't care so much, and fled south with the remaining more than 70 people. He planned to try his luck in Jingzhou, and heard that there are many lakes in Jingzhou, drought is rare, and there will be all kinds of fish and shrimp in the water, enough to fill his belly. It's just that when the number of people was counted, Zhang Mazi was missing, and I didn't know if he was dead or ran. When his father and mother get married, everyone takes care of each other, not to mention that he is not very likable.

It feels so good to go home, this is Du Wu's first emotion when he stepped into the Great Sima Mansion. The moment the pipa saw herself, her eyes turned red. Du Wu's heart trembled slightly, and he didn't say anything, but just nodded at the woman, which caused Pipa tears to flow out at once.

Wang Yan has already been established as the queen, so there is no way to come out to greet Du Wu, but she just sent Yeyan over to deliver a cup of chicken soup, saying that she had worked hard all the way to replenish her body. The most excited thing is the perilla, the little girl rode rhubarb, rushed out of the house all the way, stirred up the chickens and dogs inside and outside the yard, came up and hugged Du Wu and cried loudly, tears and snot rubbed Du Wu's body. Du Wu smiled awkwardly, it was easy to coax the perilla, and Wang Shu and Galangal who came to see the ceremony met separately, and after a brief reminiscence, he was pushed back to his small courtyard by Wang Shu, and asked the pipa to give Du Wu a good wash, and the old man would personally give Du Wu the wind at night.

Compared with Du Wu's ease, Lin Lan is a lawsuit. Du Wu has no official position, this time he only went to disaster relief as an adviser and deputy, and Lin Lan as the chief farmer of the imperial court, ranked Jiuqing, although the disaster relief matters were barely completed, but it has caused a civil uprising, and the bus commander and most of the forbidden troops who went to guard were killed, which has also become a stain on his official career. I wanted Wang Mang to go out to mediate the dispute, but I saw that the old god was standing on the ground and closed his eyes to recuperate, and Kong Guang also had a look of irrelevance, but the little emperor couldn't sit still.

"It's all a bunch of old foxes!" Wang Zhengjun thought hatefully.
