Chu Qingliu said: "Senior sister, I'll feed him something first, and then talk slowly if I have something to say." Feed Lu Zilu some bread and cooked meat, let him drink some cold wine, and said: "Brother Lu, if you have something to say, it is useless to be radical and reckless." ”

Lu Zilu said: "Are you also a member of the Chaos Alliance? Are you also the one who asked them to be subdued? We are all suffering from the same fate, but I didn't expect you to be able to share the same heart with this Miss Qu." As he spoke, he struggled to sit up again.

Chu Qingliu said: "You don't have to talk about me, we're talking about you." It is human nature to be a chicken rather than a cow, and who wants someone to take care of themselves? However, it would be unwise to hate people and refuse to speak just because of this matter. How did you get this wound?"

Lu Zilu said: "How did the injuries come about? Why don't you ask this Miss Qu!"

This person is not good at talking, and he will quarrel when he opens his mouth, which is really difficult to deal with.

Qu Lingyu groaned: "Lu Zilu, if this injury on your body is caused by me, I will cut off a left hand for you, what do you think?"

Lu Zilu looked at Chu Qingliu and said, "Really?"

Chu Qingliu said: "Fake." Even if you lose your life because of my junior sister, I won't let her hurt herself. ”

Lu Zilu sneered: "I see, I see! However, I still have to talk about it." I said, it depends on whether you cut or not! Miss Qu, do you remember that there is a bluestone platform in Helan Mountain?"

Qu Lingyu said: "I know, that place is also called Qingshi Yuanyuan. ”

Lu Zilu said: "What about the water ditch?"

Qu Lingyu said: "The Naoshui ditch is also called the guillotine ditch. What does this have to do with you?"

Lu Zilu said: "It's very related, but it's all small things, and you Miss Qu don't even know about it." However, if this matter is not done well, as long as everyone still has a breath of air, they will have to rise up together to rebel against you, not to mention that your Qu family Dazhai is the ancestral grave of Zhang Yuan and Wu Hao, and all of them have to be dug up!"

When Qu Lingyu heard him say this, he was not angry, and said: "Brother Wu, please tell me in detail, what happened to these two places in Helan Mountain? If something irreparable really happens, not only my hand, but also the lives of my father and daughter will all have to be handed over to your brothers, you just have to rest assured!"

He said to Chu Qing again: "Senior brother, I told you before that many people from various gangs and factions are trapped in the Xia Kingdom, and it is very difficult for us to move. These people all live in Qingshitai and Naoshui Dagou, and if something happens in these two places, it will definitely turn the sky upside down. ”

Chu Qingliu said: "Don't worry. Brother Lu, you should talk about this in detail, don't hide it, but don't make it up. This is a matter of many human lives, and it should not be overlooked. ”

Lu Zilu said: "If you want to hear it, I'll talk about it in detail." As I said, if you can bring those people out, we will obey the orders of the Heavenly Sect in the future. Miss Qu can really treat us as her own brothers, and if she doesn't treat us as lackeys, we have to look like brothers, here's the thing. ”

After the Chaos League had a slight scale, it temporarily joined forces with the Western Xia Kingdom, and the Western Xia Emperor Tuoba Yuanhao ordered Zhang Yuan and Qu Guanghan to select young gang members from various gangs and factions to go to the Xia Kingdom to learn archery, horse riding and archery. At that time, it was just good words and discussions, and there was no strict order, saying that Xia Guo's horseback and archery fighting kung fu was much stronger than that of the Song realm, and these children would return to the Song realm after completing their studies, and they would be much more effective in doing things, which was conducive to the recovery of the Great Zhou.

Zhang Yuan and Qu Guanghan were not unwary of Xia Guo, but at that time, the two sides had just joined forces, and they were in harmony. The two of them had this concern, so they did not object, but went all out to do it.

At that time, there were still few gangs that were subdued, and there were only more than 20 people who went to the Xia Kingdom. When these people arrived in the Xia Kingdom, they ate, lived, and fed according to the reception of the guests, and the Xia Kingdom even allocated good horses and crossbows for these people to ride and train, and the Western Xia archers also gave solid guidance and did not hide their selfishness.

Half a year later, these people all made great progress in riding bow horses, and when it was time to return to the Song realm, there were still people who did not want to leave, and had to learn some more time.

These people returned to the Song Realm, and then transferred the bow horse riding technique to the same sect, and the results were really not small.

In the future, more and more gangs conquered and obeyed, and more and more people went to the Xia Kingdom, and the maximum number of people exceeded three hundred. Later, the Central Plains was eventful, and the trend of the Yixuetang going north was very clear, and there were fewer people going. Rao is like this, and there are still one hundred and twenty or thirty people stranded in the Xia Kingdom at the moment.

These people originally lived in the military camp of the Praetorian Guard near Xingqing Mansion, but just half a year ago, Tuoba Yuanhao ordered them to move to live in the bluestone platform and Naoshui Dagou in the Helan Mountains, saying that the above two places are more suitable for practicing horsemanship, and what they have learned is closer to actual combat.

Recently, the people of Xia Guo blamed the chaotic alliance for its ineffectiveness in disturbing the Song realm, and suddenly attacked, separating more than 100 people in two places, and the camp was guarded by elite soldiers on all sides, which can be said to be hostages. Zhang Yuan only found out about this many days later, so he couldn't talk about stopping it first. The only way to do our best is to take care of the diet and daily life of these people, so that they do not suffer too much. The people of the Xia Kingdom did not seriously lock up all the people, these people are still free, but they have all been incorporated into the Xia State army and are not allowed to leave the barracks at will.

When it was time to go back to the rotation, the Emperor of Xia didn't mention the rotation at all, and seemed to have completely forgotten about it. Zhang Yuan asked a few times, but they were all prevaricated and delayed. These people couldn't return to the Song Realm on time as promised, everyone knew that the situation was not good, and they wouldn't send new people over, so the matter froze.

With the hostages in Xia Guo's hands, he has a lot less scruples in his actions, and he didn't hide that Pang Neng openly sent an internal faction to try to snatch the Chaos Alliance into his hands, which was also a big inducement.

As soon as he tried to succeed, he felt that the one hundred and ten hostages in his hands were all treasures, and if they were used well, they would receive great benefits. He often asked people to go to these two places in the mountains, met with these people in private, promised benefits, and provoked these people to discord with Zhang Yuan and Qu Guanghan. He also asked these people to write letters, and he sent people to the gangs in the Song Realm.

In these letters, some of them said that they were fine to live, while others said that they were starving and cold, and that life was worse than death. As for how to say it, it all depends on each person's preferences, and what kind of person the head of each family is.

If they write obediently and obediently, no one will embarrass them for the time being. Those who have a strong temper will be beaten and starved. There were even five or six people who were falsely accused of being executed for the Zhao and Song dynasties or the Khitans, and under hunger and cold, they did not treat them well when they were sick, or even killed people by the hands of medical officials.

All kinds of shady and all kinds of methods have been used, and nine people have died in the camp, and only Zhang Yuan is hidden.

Lu Zilu is one of them, and he can't stand the slightest injustice. Xia Guoren is so untrustworthy, unreasonable, and moral, how can he endure it? Naturally, he will not write any letters to his family. If he could talk to him with good words, he might really persuade his brother to abandon Qu Guanghan and follow the work of Pang without hiding it. But with such a strong force, he categorically refused to obey orders.

He was starved and beaten because of this, but fortunately he did not get sick and did not give the medical officer a chance to do it. He himself knew that if he continued like this, his life could only be thrown into Helan Mountain, so he always thought about running away.

He has the heart to escape, and he has acted much wiser, no longer resisting hard, no longer looking for fights, and he can eat as much as possible. He was also instructed to write letters home, so that he would attract less attention. When there was nothing to do, he scolded the Qu family's father and daughter, which was originally what he thought, and it was not a contrary to his will.

These people are not in a cell, and they usually have to do some work. Cleaning latrines, picking up cow dung, chopping wood, carrying water, and all kinds of miscellaneous labor, it is not too many people to do it, and naturally they will not be idle. As for the archery and horse archery, they should be allowed to go to the back of the horse for ten days and a half to make a show, but the horses are specially selected for the old, weak, sick and disabled, the bow is weak, the bow is difficult and far, and there is not even an arrow on the arrow.

Regardless of whether he was doing miscellaneous work or riding a horse and releasing arrows, there were elite soldiers of the Xia Kingdom who were watching and supervising on the side. If you want to escape, you must not only have courage, but also have knowledge, your mind must be more flexible than others, and even your luck must be better than that of ordinary people.

When Qu Lingyu heard this, he said, "Brother Wu, you have all suffered. But you must know that it was not my father and Uncle Zhang's intention to get to this point. There are people from all families and factions trapped in the Xia Kingdom, and they are not good for my father or me. ”

Lu Zilu shook his head and said, "Miss Qu, even if you say all the good things, it can't reduce your sins. He also said, "It is also good for you to have someone stay in the Xia Kingdom." With these people in your hands, who would dare not listen to you? Now that they are turning their faces and trying to kill people, you will feel that you are in trouble, Miss Qu, people can't be sorry when they speak. What he said was originally the truth, and Qu Lingyu did not refute it.

Lu Zilu was always careful, everywhere, and even when he slept, he didn't forget to think about how to escape. The hard work did not pay off, and in the end he found the opportunity.

On this day, it was his turn to dig a pit with a person, this work was extremely tiring and dirty, not only did no one want to do it, but the officers and soldiers of Xia Guo were also unwilling to get close to the supervision and care. When the two supervising Western Xia officers and soldiers encountered this errand, they had to come, but they hid as far as they could, let alone follow them to the thatched hut to see.

Lu Zilu picked up a few trips of dung, and his heart flashed with inspiration and he had an idea. He stood on the edge of the dunghill, hardened his heart, and jumped into the dunghill while the man who was working with him was not paying attention, and let out a scream.

In the early winter, it is the northwest borderland, and when the fecal water touches the body, the cold goes straight into the marrow of people. Lu Zilu climbed onto the edge of the dung pit and struggled a lot before he climbed out of the dung pit and ran out.

Seeing him like this, the two Western Xia soldiers were drenched in feces and water, and it was really difficult to get close, so they each covered their mouths and noses, waved their hands and worked together, and the man took Lu Zilu to the side of the river not far away to wash, and the two followed from a distance.

Lu Zilu took off his essence, jumped into the river, scrubbed violently, washed and washed, he dived into the water and swam to the opposite bank. As soon as he got ashore, he ran away without looking back.

These soldiers all lived in camp tents, surrounded by wooden fences, and the river was not too far away from the wooden fence, so it was strictly forbidden for these hostages to approach on weekdays.

Lu Zilu went up to the other side of the river, and was already far away from the two soldiers. It was so cold that the two soldiers were really reluctant to wade across the river to chase him. Lu Zilu climbed over the wooden fence and ran into the chaotic mountain with all his strength, for fear that if he stopped, he would freeze to death.

I don't know how the two soldiers will explain after they go back, in short, I didn't see any soldiers from the Xia Kingdom going out to search the mountains to find him. Lu Zilu touched a house, stole clothes to wear, and made a big circle to the west, and then turned east.

Thinking back on this incident afterwards, Lu Zilu was only afraid, and he was not complacent. If it weren't for the fact that he still had some foundation in his internal strength, even if he didn't freeze to death in the dung pit, he would have to freeze to death in the river, and he would never be allowed to escape over the fence.

In order to escape, he did not hesitate to jump into the dung pit, and the matter changed to others, even if he was unwilling to say it to his parents and wife, Lu Zilu came one by one, and he was not obscure at all. This person is really hard-hearted.
