Guo Jing and Huang Rong and many heroes and heroes drank outside Xiangyang City, laughing and laughing for a while, and the atmosphere was very warm.

When it was dawn, not far away, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves, and I saw a man and a woman galloping on horseback.

Guo Jing has profound internal skills, and he was the first to discover the person who came, and when he gathered his eyes to see, he couldn't help but show a look of surprise on his face.

"It's over, it's over!"

He directly put down the wine bowl, stood up, haha, laughed and shouted at the comer: "Come to me." ”

"Uncle Guo?!" The people who came were Yang Guo and Gongsun Lucao, since they left the Valley of Despair, the two of them had been incognito along the way, and they were very cautious and cautious along the way.

But later, the Mongol army surrounded Xiangyang City, and there were cavalry wandering around along the way, looting supplies everywhere, and the methods used were extremely cruel.

Gongsun Lucalyx was beautiful, and he was taken by those Mongolian soldiers on the spot, and he was about to force it immediately.

Yang Guo was furious, and directly killed those Mongols cleanly, and took out the Gongsun Green Calyx.

"Miss Gongsun, now that the Mongolian army is surrounding Xiangyang City, blocking all the main roads along the way, we can't go anywhere."

"In my opinion, we might as well rush to Xiangyang City, I have an elder there, maybe we can have a place to stay temporarily."

Since Guo Jing sent Yang Guo to Zhongnan Mountain, the two have never seen each other again, and Yang Guo's feelings for Guo Jing are very complicated in his heart.

There is not only admiration and admiration, but also a trace of unspeakable complaints, as well as suspicion of his father's death.

Now that he has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, how can he not know Guo Jing's reputation in the rivers and lakes, he has heard about the Heroes Conference before.

At this time, thinking that there would be a big battle in Xiangyang City, and the transit would definitely rush there, Yang Guo moved his mind.

Gongsun Lucao had already lost all his relatives at this time, and he was in a daze, where did he have any ideas, Yang Guo said so, and agreed.

Yang Guo killed a group of Mongolian cavalry, captured two war horses, and rushed towards Xiangyang City with Gongsun Lucao from the path.

In fact, it was not only Guo Jing and Yang Guo who rushed towards Xiangyang from all directions, but also heard that Xiangyang City was surrounded, and there were many heroes and heroes on the rivers and lakes and warriors from the surrounding towns and villages, all of whom brought their own dry food, weapons and mounts to gather towards Xiangyang City.

It's just that Yang Guo didn't expect to meet Guo Jing so coincidentally outside Xiangyang City.

Although it has been many years since he saw him, and Yang Guo has changed a lot, Guo Jing still recognizes him at a glance.

"Uncle Guo, Aunt Guo!" Yang Guo turned over and dismounted, and the two of them saluted first.

"Hahaha, after that, you have really grown up and become more and more heroic." Guo Jing looked at Yang Guo and felt joy and joy from the bottom of his heart, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You rushed to Xiangyang City, did you hear that the Mongol army was besieging Xiangyang?" ”

"Sure enough, it's a good son, it seems that Qiu Zhenren taught you very well, knowing that when the national crisis is at hand, he will spare his life for the country and the people."

"Okay, very good, Uncle Guo is very happy to see you today."

"If you encounter an enemy, you and I will go into battle together to kill the enemy."

When Yang Guo heard this, he felt a little ashamed in his heart, although he also killed a lot of Mongolians along the way, but it was only for his own selfishness, where is it for the country and the people.

Huang Rong on the side didn't like Yang Guo because of his father Yang Kang.

At this time, seeing Guo Jing and Yang Guo happily together, I couldn't help but secretly think: "I must give Brother Jing a son, and when the time comes, let the father and son go into battle together to kill the enemy." ”

While thinking about it, his eyes fell on Gongsun Lucalyx, but after just taking a look, he found that this girl was not only pure and beautiful, but also revealed a purity and innocence in her eyes that did not know the world.

Such a woman knew at a glance that she was a deep lady who was not stained with dust, but she didn't expect to be with Yang Guo.

Huang Rong opened her mouth and said with a chuckle: "As soon as you two meet, you won't stop talking, after that, you haven't told us yet, who is this girl behind you?" ”

Guo Jing also came back to his senses, glanced at Gongsun Lucalyx, and a smile appeared on his face, and asked, "Guo'er, who is this girl?" ”

Gongsun Lucao stepped forward at this time, saluted and said: "The little girl Gongsun Lucalyx has seen two seniors. ”

"Miss Gongsun, why be polite, please get up quickly!" Huang Rong saw that this girl had an indescribable liking, and hurriedly stepped forward and took the initiative to pull her up.

Perhaps the more intelligent she is, the more she likes simple people, Huang Rong felt close when she saw Gongsun Lucalyx.

Yang Guo explained on the side: "Uncle Guo, Aunt Guo, and Miss Gongsun's whole family were killed by a demon, and I escaped with her by chance. ”

"I never thought that it coincided with the Mongol siege of Xiangyang, and we killed a lot of Mongolian cavalry along the way, so we came to Xiangyang."

"Poor child, who is so cruel that he actually harmed your parents and relatives." Huang Rong took Gongsun Lucalyx's hand and said, "Girl, do you know the identity of that enemy, tell us and we will make the decision for you." ”

Gongsun Lucao was quite hesitant, and subconsciously glanced at Yang Guo.

Yang Guo looked at her eyes and said softly: "Miss Gongsun, my Uncle Guo is the world-famous hero Guo Jing, and Aunt Guo is the leader of the largest gang of beggars today. ”

"With the two of them in charge for you, no matter how powerful the demon's martial arts are, they can't stop them."

"Don't worry, just say it."

When Gongsun Lucao heard this, his heart suddenly seemed to have a trace of support, and he couldn't help but have tears rolling down his cheeks.

"I don't know who the devil's name is, but when I woke up in the middle of the night, I saw her killing in the valley, all the brothers in the valley, and ...... And ......"

Thinking of Gongsun Zhi, her heart was even more indescribably complicated, and her father couldn't call it out, so she bit her lip slightly and said, "All relatives have been killed." ”

Huang Rong looked at the pear blossoms he was crying with rain, and comforted her: "Girl, don't cry, even if you don't know the identity of the enemy, you can always see her appearance." ”

"Is it male or female, tall, short, fat and thin, and what are the obvious characteristics?"

Gongsun Lucao's impression of Li Mochou had already been engraved in his mind, and when he heard the question, he carefully depicted Li Mochou's image.

Before she finished speaking, Guo Jing, Huang Rong and Yang Guo said in unison: "Is it Li Mochou?" ”

"It turned out to be Li Mochou's female devil, if it was him, it wouldn't be surprising." Huang Rong snorted coldly and said: "This female demon has created boundless slaughter on the rivers and lakes, but I didn't expect to come to Xiangyang City now." ”

"Girl, don't be afraid, this matter is up to me and my husband to make decisions for you, Li Mochou has been making waves on the rivers and lakes for too long, and she must not be so reckless."

Guo Jing nodded and said, "Rong'er, what you said is right, Li Mochou acted too ruthlessly, and he killed people at every turn, this kind of behavior is really a devil." ”

As he spoke, he asked Gongsun Lucao, "Miss Gongsun, do you know Li Mochou's whereabouts?" ”

When Gongsun Lu'e heard that he really wanted to avenge himself, he hurriedly knelt down to make a big salute, but was stopped by Huang Rong, "We are all sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, and we don't pay attention to these false etiquette, not to mention that when we encounter a demon like Li Mochou, everyone will kill them quickly, and the girl doesn't have to be polite." ”

Gongsun Lucao still insisted on worshipping three times, and then he sobbed with tears: "I heard that female devil talking to my father, it seems that she killed our whole family in order to occupy our Desperate Valley. ”

"She should be in the Valley of Despair right now."

"Valley of Despair?" Guo Jing and Huang Rong glanced at each other, but they had never heard of such a place near Xiangyang City.

Yang Guo interjected on the side: "The Valley of Despair is a small valley not far from Xiangyang City, the terrain is extremely secret, and it is inaccessible. ”

"I was walking in the wilderness before, and by chance, I met the Gongsun girl in the Valley of Despair."

When Guo Jing heard this, he pondered for a moment and asked, "Guo'er, do you still recognize the way to the Valley of Despair?" ”

"Naturally, I remember." Yang Guo nodded.

Guo Jing glanced at the many people in the rivers and lakes who were still drinking and having fun not far away, and secretly thought to himself, now the entire Xiangyang City is under martial law for three days, and he can't enter the city for a while.

But so many colleagues from the rivers and lakes came with him, but he couldn't ignore it, and only let Huang Rong face Li Mochou alone, and he couldn't rest assured.

When she was in a dilemma, Huang Rong had already seen how clever she was, so she chuckled and said, "Brother Jing, it was night yesterday, and it was inconvenient for me to break into the city gate." ”

"But if the color is getting brighter today, if the general guarding the city is still unwilling to let us in, then it will be a little too much."

"In my opinion, I might as well let the two eagles send a letter to the prefect's yamen."

"Zhao Fan and we also have some friendship, and at this moment of national crisis, he shouldn't turn us away."

"After entering the city, I will appease these colleagues on the rivers and lakes, you and Guo'er will go to the Valley of Despair together, if you meet Li Mochou, just kill it."

Guo Jing heard his wife say that killing Li Mochou was as simple as pinching an ant to death, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Li Mochou can make such a big name in the rivers and lakes, and his martial arts are definitely not to be underestimated." ”

"Rong'er, you can't help but think too highly of me!"

Huang Rong couldn't help but giggle and said, "I see, it's Brother Jing, you are too humble, not to mention that you still have a child?" ”

"He has studied art in Zhongnan Mountain for so many years, and his martial arts must be beneficial, and he can be your helper."

"When the time comes, Miss Gongsun and I will be in the city waiting for the good news of you two."

When Guo Jing heard this, he had no reason to refuse.

"In that case, then after many things here are arranged, I will go with Guo'er, and I will meet the Chilian Fairy Li Mochou for a while."

"Yes, Uncle Guo." Yang Guo also agreed.

The husband and wife immediately summoned the white eagle, wrote a letter casually, and then asked the white eagle to send it into the city.

The letter fell into the prefect's yamen and was soon delivered to Li Hu.

"Is it Guo Jing and Huang Rong and his wife who have arrived?" After Li Hu saw the letter, his eyes suddenly lit up, and at this moment, another soldier came to report it.

"General, there is a situation at the east gate and the south gate, Guo Sheng suddenly issued an order in the middle of the night last night to make all the city gates martial law for three days, and no one is allowed to enter or leave."

Li Hu couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "Guo Sheng, Guo Sheng, you are really cocooning yourself, this time I will let you walk around without eating." ”

"Although Guo Jing and Huang Rong and his wife have some actions that are rebellious to the imperial court on weekdays and disrespect Shangguan, they are the best butcher's knives at this time."

He immediately ordered to go down, "Prepare for me immediately, I will personally go out of Xiangyang City to welcome Guo Jing, Guo Daxia and Mrs. Guo back to the city together." ”

"The bigger this matter is, the better, I want everyone to know that Guo Jing and Guo Daxia were stopped outside Xiangyang City by villains for a night, and even wanted them to not be able to enter Xiangyang City for three days in a row."

"Yes, my lord, my subordinates will do it." The guards who stayed with him said yes and immediately went down.

It didn't take too long for Li Hu to personally lead people to open the East City Gate, and a group of people made a huge noise, bringing Guo Jing, Huang Rong and many people from the rivers and lakes into the city.

Not only that, but he also immediately arranged a room for everyone to rest, and sent wine and food to wash the dust.

After a busy time, before he knew it, it was already noon, and Li Hu invited Guo Jing and many people from the rivers and lakes to a banquet together.

After three rounds of drinking, Li Hu couldn't help but sigh for a long time, with a sad look on his face.

Guo Jing saw him like this, so he asked, "What's worrying about Lord Li?" Hasn't the Mongol army been repulsed? Why are you still lamenting so much? ”

Li Hu waited for him to take the initiative to ask, and when he heard this, he immediately snickered in his heart, but his face showed a look of helplessness and pain.

"Guo Daxia, you don't know, although the Mongolian army outside the city has gone, there are new jackals, tigers and leopards in this city, who want to seek power and usurp the throne, and even intend to collude with the Mongols and betray my Great Song Dynasty."

When Guo Jing heard this, he couldn't help frowning, "Who is the adult talking about?" ”

Huang Rong was talking with Gongsun Lucao at this time, and she didn't like this kind of occasion, so she didn't come with her.

However, he is not the stupid hairy boy he was at the beginning, he will not be used as a gun casually, and he has a little vigilance and caution in his heart, for fear of falling into the enemy's calculations.

Li Hu said in a somewhat choked tone: "Guo Daxia, originally this Xiangyang City was impregnable, but now that it is winter, how dare the Mongolian army attack?" ”

"This is all because there are traitors in the city, and the Mongols have made an agreement to cooperate with the outside and open the city gates when the Mongols attack the city."

"What? Is there such a thing? Guo Jing asked in a deep voice.

Li Hu pointed to the sky and swore an oath, "Everything I say is true, if there is half a lie, heaven and man will abandon it." ”

"What's more, when the Mongols attacked the city yesterday, the west gate of the city was opened by the traitors, and it was almost conquered by the Mongols in one fell swoop, and the people of Xiangyang City saw this scene."

"If Guo Daxia doesn't believe it, you can ask!"

Guo Jing had already believed it when he heard this, "Who is the traitor?" Is it dead or alive now? ”

Many people in the rivers and lakes under the hall shouted loudly: "A traitor like this should be cut with a thousand cuts, how can you still tolerate them to live." ”

"Master Li, even if you say it, who is it?"

Li Hu saw the crowd of voices, and his heart was already smiling, but his face pretended to be painful.

"Alas, this matter is really made the relatives and enemies happy."

"That traitor is my soldiers in the northern army of Xiangyang City, because of them, the entire Xiangyang City is almost completely destroyed, and all the people will fall under the butcher's knife of the Mongols."

"And now Guo Sheng, who is in command of the Northern Army, even shamelessly relied on the army under his command to forcibly occupy the west gate and north gate of Xiangyang City."

"This is the person who turned Guo Daxia and his wife and many heroes away yesterday."

"What? Guo Sheng? It doesn't matter who he is, if he dares to be a traitor, kill him with a knife. "Someone should open his mouth and scold.

"Yes, everyone who dares to be a lackey and traitor of the Mongols will be punished."

"Where is he now? When the national disaster is at hand, he dares to support the army and respect himself, which is really the ambition of the wolf. Even Guo Jing couldn't help but clench his fists and took the initiative to ask.

Li Hu was overjoyed and said secretly: "I've got it!" ”

Thinking like this, two lines of turbid tears flowed on his face, and he gritted his teeth and said: "This person has bad intentions and wants to invite me to a banquet this evening, intending to coerce me to hand over my military power. ”

"How can I agree to such a traitor?"

"But he ...... But he threatened me with my youngest son's life. ”

"He even sent someone to secretly cut off one of my youngest son's fingers."

Li Hu said, took out the box that had been prepared from the side, and opened it with a clang, revealing a bloody little finger.

He fell to his knees and burst into tears, "It's not a pity that my Li Hu died, but my youngest son is innocent, and the people of Xiangyang City are innocent." ”

"Please also ask Guo Daxia to make the decision for me!"
