Volume 1 Chapter 6 Saving Lives
Although Chu Zhao said that he had not come down the mountain for 14 years since he entered the Qingshan Temple, he must not think that he was just a "nerd" who only knew how to practice.
As the first disciple of the Daomen Ancestral Courtyard Qingshan Temple, Chu Zhao has received all-round training since he was a child, plus he is an adult who has the ability to never forget, and the absorption of all kinds of knowledge is extremely fast.
The other party's simple words and dressing up, he basically guessed his identity.
After such an unfriendly "greeting" between the two sides, the atmosphere in the temple was extremely embarrassing, but fortunately, it didn't take long for the morning sun to rise slowly, and the warm sunlight shone into the temple.
Chu Zhao sat up, completely in a state of being completely fine, ready to eat some snacks to satisfy his hunger.
The baggage is filled with some pastries made by the third junior sister, which are delicate in style and crispy and delicious.
The third junior sister Ouyang Chuxue was born in a scholarly family, her ancestors had several university scholars, and her grandfather was a great Confucian in the world.
Although the three meals a day in Guannei are all busy with the disciples, to put it bluntly, most of them are handled by the three senior sisters alone, and the rest of them are just fighting to the death.
The dim sum made by the third junior sister is delicate and delicious, and it is enough to satisfy hunger, and Chu Zhao has already eaten enough under the four dim sum, and drank the spring water in the sip bag, Chu Zhao was about to pack up his things and leave, at this time, he happened to see the little guy who was indiscriminate in the middle of the night and defended his sister with a resolute face, looking at the dim sum and swallowing saliva with a greedy look.
"Hungry?"
The little guy seemed to know that he was ugly, so he wiped his mouth with big sleeves, raised his head and said arrogantly: "I'm not hungry!"
Chu Zhao looked at the little guy's duplicitous appearance and suddenly remembered the little junior sister, smiled dumbly, beckoned to the little guy, and said, "There are a lot of them here, if you want to eat, come and eat." ”
The little guy's eyes lit up when he heard this, but he was not reckless, his expression was twisted and a little hesitant, Chu Zhao saw it and said deliberately: "If you don't want to eat it, then I will eat it all." ”
The little guy was obviously very hungry, and after listening to Chu Zhao's words, he ran over in a panic, and Chu Zhao handed him the rest of the snacks.
The little guy whispered thank you, and did not forget to salute Chu Zhao, then ran to his sister with a snack and said happily: "Sister, there is something to eat." ”
My sister looked at the dim sum handed over by her brother and hesitated, she had to assassinate the other party last night, and she was a little embarrassed to eat other people's things the next day.
Chu Zhao must have embarrassed the other party when he saw that he was there, and left the Land Temple as soon as he packed up his baggage.
Last night it rained, washing the earth and the air, and there was a hint of coolness in the air, and I took a breath of refreshment.
Because Chu Zhao had something in his heart, he quickly left the Land Temple on his horse and continued to move towards Anzhou.
In less than an hour, Chu Zhao came to a county seat, the county seat was not big but quite prosperous, Chu Zhao entered the city and went directly to the horse market.
This kind of small county town horse market is pitiful, there are only more than ten horses, most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled, Chu Zhao finally spent a lot of money to buy a horse in the prime of life from the horse dealer.
After getting a good horse, Chu Zhao was ready to continue to hurry, who would have thought that the street sounded a thunderous sound of horses' hooves, more than a dozen Kong Wu powerful and fierce people, riding tall and vigorous horses galloping through the city, arrogant and unscrupulous, after passing the people turned on their backs.
Pedestrians only dare to curse in a low voice when they are injured, and they are very afraid of these people.
When the last man was galloping on a horse, suddenly a paper painting fell to the ground, just near Chu Zhao, a curious person picked up the paper painting and unfolded it to take a look, it was a portrait of a young man, the portrait was vivid, Chu Zhao glanced at it and recognized that the young man was the little guy he met in the Land Temple.
Many people pointed around the portrait.
Chu Zhao looked at the portrait and suddenly had a bad premonition, stepped forward, and asked an uncle nearby: "This uncle, why were those people so arrogant just now?
"Hehe, the young man is a foreigner, right?" The uncle looked at Chu Zhao and smiled: "Those people are from the Mu family, in our Songshan County, even if the county guard has to bend down in the face of the Mu family, is it a matter of driving a horse in the city?"
Mu family?
Chu Zhao's mind turned sharply, and he remembered some things about the Mu family.
The Mu family is a famous family in Gyeongju, it has been more than 200 years, and it is also famous in the world when it is in its heyday, but as the old saying goes, prosperity must decline, the Mu family has shown a decline in the past twenty or thirty years, but even so, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the influence and strength of the Mu family are much inferior to before, but in Songshan County, the place of origin, it is still the existence of the emperor.
The more than ten people with the portraits of the sisters and brothers were obviously looking for or arresting.
Intuitively, Chu Zhao felt that the pair of sisters and brothers were in danger.
Chu Zhao and their sister and brother were not related to each other, so they didn't have to pay attention to these things, but when they saw them in the temple last night, they brought back bad memories from their childhood.
Chu Zhao didn't think too much about it before he had a plan, and drove his horse straight in the direction of the Land Temple.
The people of the Mu family rode all high-quality horses, and the speed was extremely fast, Chu Zhao had long since disappeared when he went out of the city, and the land temple was not on the official road, Chu Zhao could only hope that the more than ten people were on the official road, but when he reached the fork in the road, he saw that there were chaotic horseshoe prints and turned into the path.
"Hopefully it won't turn out like I imagined. ”
Chu Zhao sighed, rode his horse and galloped towards the Land Temple.
When he arrived at the Land Temple, he didn't see anyone except for the messy horseshoe prints, thinking that the pair of sisters and brothers should have run away, so Chu Zhao continued to move forward along the horseshoe prints, and after walking less than a meal, he saw six people galloping towards him on horseback, and the two sisters and brothers he met last night were among them.
The two siblings were obviously coerced, their expressions were depressed, and there were tears on their faces.
The six men saw Chu Zhao's vigilant expression, their eyes were cold, and Chu Zhao pretended to be a passerby and glanced at it before retracting his gaze.
The two sisters and brothers saw Chu Zhao's expression, the elder sister looked angry, and her eyes were full of hatred, I am afraid that they thought that Chu Zhao had reported the news and caused him to be arrested, but the younger brother's eyes lit up.
"Brother, help!"
The little guy saw that Chu Zhao seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and shouted for help, the person behind the little guy shouted angrily and shut up, knocked the little guy unconscious with a knife in his hand, and then said viciously: "Don't be nosy, get out!"
Chu Zhao sighed, and things really went in the direction he didn't want to see.
The trail was already narrow, and the two horses walked side by side, and Chu Zhao heard the sound of help and directly stopped his horse to block their way.
The sister who was coerced looked stunned when she saw it, and she didn't know what Chu Zhao was paying attention to, and the six men put their hands on the hilt of the knife when they saw it.
