Volume 3 The Valley of Wu Wei Chapter 87 Arrived as scheduled
Hou Huaigu said with a smile: "Of course there are countermeasures, I guess the officers and soldiers of the King of Chu will intercept us on a large scale in Macheng." There is almost the way we must pass, to the north is the territory of the academy, which is full of dangers, and to the south the waterway, which is Wang Shirong's base camp, and it is difficult. Only here in Macheng, the land route is smooth, and there are bridges on the river, so we can pass quickly.
But I can think that the other party is not a fool, and I guess I can guess it, so we must repel the pursuers of Wuwei Valley before we arrive in Macheng, and train our people as well as possible, so that we can deal with the army of the King of Chu when the time comes. Otherwise, these people would be stupid at the sight of the regular army. ”
Liu Jizu nodded and said: "What you said is very right, I have seen these people who don't know martial arts, there are more than a hundred people with good physical fitness, and it is still a big help for us to train well." I think it's okay to teach some simple and practical martial arts, and it would be better if I could get enough bows and arrows later. But the key and difficult point is how to train their psychological quality, I wonder if there is any good way for the predecessors of Hou?"
Hou Huaigu still habitually stroked his two extremely distinctive beards, and his eyes rolled, "It's not difficult, it's just that the methods are a little cruel, just use the chasing soldiers sent by the valley to train them." Just ......"
"It's just what, Senior Hou has something to say directly!"
"It's just that according to my observation, most of these people are not strong-minded, they were in a hurry to flee from the Wuwei Valley, and now they are far away from the Wuwei Valley, and these people are afraid that they have new ideas. ”
Liu Jizu frowned when he heard this, thinking that these were poor people, and he had some favors for them, so he was afraid that it wouldn't happen! But he didn't say anything, just nodded.
Hou Huaigu didn't say much, he asked Liu Jizu to go back to his car to recuperate, and he had to take a rest after arranging the division of labor himself, and he handed over the command to Huang Que.
Liu Jizu returned to his car, because there were not enough people who could drive, his car was already connected to the car in front, so there was no need for someone to catch up with every car. He tied the reins of the wind to the horse of the seventh sister behind the car, and then jumped into the car. There was only the seventh sister and a lot of baggage in the carriage, and the seventh sister was busy sorting out those burdens.
The seventh sister has not had time to talk to Liu Jizu since she was saved, and now she saw Liu Jizu come in with the curtain, and the two of them were alone, so she couldn't help it anymore, and when she saw Liu Jizu, she threw herself into his arms, hugged Liu Jizu tightly, and sobbed.
Liu Jizu gently hugged her and comforted her softly for a while, and the seventh sister slowly stopped sobbing. She pulled down the face towel, revealing her peerless face, and the carriage with the curtain seemed to light up all at once.
Liu Jizu looked at her stupidly, thinking that he must be dreaming, how could such a woman belong to him. Liu Jizu, who was dreaming, suddenly felt that his lips came into contact with a piece of soft wetness, he came to his senses, but he didn't want to wake up, and soon immersed himself in that piece of softness and wetness again.
The convoy headed east, much quieter than it had been last night. When they got out of the boundary of Yancheng City, the road began to become less easy to walk, with potholes, vehicles swaying around, and some bumps, but Liu Jizu had already fallen asleep on the legs of the seventh sister.
In the dream, Liu Jizu still felt that the beauty just now was so unreal, but he was so sleepy, so sleepy that he couldn't even feel this unreality.
Suddenly he was awakened by the sound of horses' hooves and the noise of men, as if he had just fallen asleep, but in fact he had been asleep for two hours.
Liu Jizu opened his eyes, sat up, stretched out his hand and lifted the corner of the curtain to look out, and found that they had come to a valley clearing, which was relatively open, and everyone was busy setting up a camp to rest.
He looked back at the seventh sister and found that the seventh sister was also asleep leaning against the carriage, and that face was so beautiful even in her sleep.
Liu Jizu secretly swore that in order to keep this beauty, he had to work harder, even if he fought for his life, he couldn't let the people he loved suffer a little more. He picked himself up and got up lightly and came out of the car, where it was all parked and a young man was helping him unload and feed the horses.
Liu Jizu saw that it was one of those who Fan Cheng arranged to go to Wuwei Valley with him to save people, and he also took the initiative to help Liu Jizu carry a bag of medicine.
Liu Jizu took a closer look and found that this young man was eighteen or nineteen years old, with delicate facial features and steady manners, but his body was very strong. He made a good impression of the young man and asked, "What do you call this big brother?"
When the man saw Liu Jizu, he hurriedly saluted, "Son, don't call me that, just call me Fan Lai." ”
When Liu Jizu heard this name, he asked, "Who are you, Mr. Fan?"
"It's my father. ”
"How old are you this year?
"I'm eighteen years old, and I haven't studied martial arts, but I've only studied at home for a few years with Mr. Private School. ”
"Then it's not an exaggeration for me to call you Brother Fan, where are we here?"
"It was Senior Hou who asked him to stop, he said that the road has been blocked, and the pursuers behind should be almost there, let's eat something first and prepare for defense. I had just parked the car and was about to call you when you got up. ”
Liu Jizu nodded, let him go and busy himself, and he also began to clean up.
At this time, the seventh sister also woke up, she cleaned up, put on a face towel, got out of the car, and heard that the pursuers were coming, so she hurriedly went to the car to get a bag out. Inside was a large bag of dry food, braised meat, pickles and more than a dozen boiled eggs specially prepared for Liu Jizu.
Liu Jizu was not polite, found a place to sit down, and swallowed it up with water.
The children around were very curious about Liu Jizu, they were all rescued by Liu Jizu, but they didn't know him, and when they saw him eating, they came around. They had never seen someone eat like Liu Jizu, and the more they watched, the more interested they became, and the more they watched, the more surprised they became. It wasn't until Liu Jizu swallowed a few adult portions of food into his stomach and finally had his fill that everyone reacted from the shock and began to ask questions word by word.
First, a little girl with flushed cheeks asked, "Engong, are you called Li Chuanzong, how old are you this year? My father said that you are very powerful, and you can defeat many villains by yourself, is it true?"
Liu Jizu took a big sip of water, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and then smiled: "My name is Li Chuanzong, and I am almost seventeen this year." Of course it's not as powerful as your dad said, I just know how to use martial arts, and I'm just a little stronger!"
The tallest boy next to him asked, "Eun Gong, I have seen you shoot arrows, and the arrows are not missing, can you teach us?"
The boys in the back also coaxed and asked, "Can you teach us?"
Liu Jizu glanced at the tall boy and found that the boy was very thin, handsome, and steady, although he was only a little over ten years old, he showed a maturity that did not match his age and a nobility that did not match his current status.
Liu Jizu was a little surprised, thinking to himself, how could this child be different from those peasant children?
He had the heart to ask carefully, but now time did not allow it, so he had to put it down first, and said with a smile: "Of course you can, I will teach you archery when I have time later!"
The boys were all happy, and at this time Laifu saw Liu Jizu, wearing leather armor and running over with his head and tail, and the group of children were scared away when they saw Laifu, and they didn't dare to approach from a distance.
Liu Jizu laughed, he touched Laifu's head lovingly, and said to the seventh sister: "You also go to eat something, the pursuers will arrive soon, and you will follow me with a bow and arrows later." ”
Hearing this, the seventh sister nodded, returned to the car to eat, and Liu Jizu continued to pack up his and the seventh sister's horses, weapons and equipment, and bows and arrows.
When they were finished, the seventh sister had also eaten, and they got on the horse together, and Laifu followed beside him, wandering towards the back of the team.
The children in the distance were very curious about Rufeng and Laifu in leather armor, and they were even more envious of Liu Jizu.
When Liu Jizu and Seventh Sister came to the back of the team, they found that it was a valley mouth, and the terrain outside the valley mouth was very open and flat, and a straight road extended to the foot of the mountain opposite.
There are no trees on either side of the road, and there are fields, so you can see clearly as long as someone comes out of the mountain. However, at the mouth of the valley, the view is blocked by the rocks, and when you look at the road from the road, you can only see the situation on the road, and you can't see it on both sides of the road.
Hou Huaigu, Divine Doctor Feng, Elder Long, Wu Lun, the Four Demons, Huang Que, Ye Zi, Su Mengqi, Fan Cheng, and more than thirty martial artists, as well as the six people with bows and arrows, were gathering at the mouth of the valley at this time, discussing things.
Hou Huaigu saw Liu Jizu coming, and hurriedly said: "The son is here just in time, the chasing soldiers will arrive soon, we are discussing the assignment of tasks, and we have already discussed it." ”
Liu Jizu asked him to continue, and Hou Huaigu was not polite, and then said: "When the enemy comes, I will take the four demons, the medical warriors, and the poisonous warriors to hide on these sides first, waiting to fight them."
Qi'er and Mr. Su took two poisonous warriors and thirty men to the front of the line to prevent anyone from attacking us from both sides. The two poisonous warriors rode to the front to explore the way, and when they found that there was a situation, they had to come back in time to report the news, so we were prepared. Also, you have to stop all the merchants on the way, tell them that there is going to be a war here, and let them pass when the war is over. Also, concentrate their vehicles and people on the side of the road and don't get in our way.
Mr. Fan, with the rest of the men, was in the middle to protect our vehicles, mules, horses, supplies, and the old and weak, women and children, and was ready for battle, waiting for my dispatch at any time.
Senior Brother Feng and the pharmacist are responsible for healing our injured brothers here.
Uncle Long and Brother Wu took everyone with bows and arrows, and found a vehicle to cover about fifty paces behind the mouth of the valley, and when the enemy came, they shot them a few rounds first when they were two hundred paces away.
Childe's excellent archery skills are also with them, which can help us relieve a lot of pressure.
We would hide on both sides of the valley mouth, and when they rushed to the valley, we would intercept them with a tripwire. If you're not sure about archery, don't shoot it again when the time comes, otherwise you'll be injured by mistake, but an archer like Childe can assist us with a bow and arrow from behind.
We try to intercept them at the mouth of the valley, and if the enemy breaks through our defenses, you can just keep shooting at them with your bows and arrows. I guess this first group is mostly tentative, the main purpose is to find out the truth and delay our trip, so it won't be very powerful. But after solving them, we must leave quickly, and we can't delay too much time to let their plan succeed. ”
