Hankasa • Volume 2 • Catastrophe Chapter 39 Ill-intentioned
Everyone will go down to the ground with it together to the grass, the more you go inside, the more you feel that this grass is really much longer, this grass is called "Ji Thorn", it is rumored that there is a master of the rivers and lakes in the previous dynasty into the Liang Palace to stab, was intercepted by Ku Rong with a knife, then wanted to escape, Ku Rong pulled out a knife and fought with it for a long time, the surrounding area was the Royal Forest Army, the assassin had a bad premonition, so that a trick of the golden cicada out of the shell of the technique disappeared out of thin air.
A group of royal forest troops chased to the end of the west wall, but there was no aftermath, and they searched from the side more than once, but the pursuit was fruitless.
Later, he learned that the assassin had appeared in Jiangdong, so he ordered the head of the city of Yecheng, which was a little closer to the shallow water, to send troops to capture, and the city sent a secret spy to the city, and finally learned that the assassin was hiding in the hanging town, so the large city army came from the city to the hanging town to capture people, and the assassin and the city army fought for a long time, full of knife marks, but escaped outside the east gate, it was through this series of unknown long grass.
Since then, the matter has spread throughout the town and outside the town, just because this assassin is the only one who can escape safely but without assassination, the people of the rivers and lakes all raised their hands to envy, and later learned that the assassin died of illness in the countryside at the age of fifty-three.
Lin Xu heard that Li Yan, the eldest disciple of the Shallow Water Gang, was talking about the origin of the name of the grass, and he was in a good mood, and the group had fled to the outside of the Ji Thorn Grass.
Zhong Liuyan was exhausted, he was already drowsy, Chen Zhao was also exhausted, Tao Ming said: "Chief, Miss Zhong and Chen Zhai's body is difficult to support, the distance is full of plains, only there are mountains and forests on the side, why don't we go to the forest to find a village to rest and stay for a night, one to avoid the forest, and the other to cultivate and recuperate, what do you think?" Ye Ji said:" Chief, I see that what Tao Gongzi said is reasonable, although Zhao Ping does not dare to capture the people in my martial arts on the surface, but it is not Zhao Ping and his Serin Army who want to put me to death, and there are other masters lurking in the shadows, we must not be underestimated, the mountains and forests are better than the willows in the town and the streets. ”
Lu Youzi looked at the rest of the gang leaders, Zhang Lu, Wang Qin and others nodded in unison, and Lu Youzi ordered: "In this case, then turn the road to the west, first go into the mountains and forests to live, and then find a way out." ”
The people received the command, and they hurried westward.
On this day, the sun shone brightly on the forest, the dazzling light was dazzling, everyone was sweating profusely, their clothes were half wet, since the battle last night had not entered, everyone was hot and thirsty, and their stomachs were empty, and they were walking around the path, muddy and potholes, many disciples were only in a hurry, and their shoes stepped into the mud, so that the cloth was soaked.
This battle lost nearly 70 people, and the remaining disciples were less than 40, all of whom wept when they walked, relatives and friends died, the future was unknown, and there was a hidden murder around them, and there would be a danger of death anytime and anywhere.
The pain of these days is helpless, and in the silent walking, they pour out, in order not to make friends sad, they do not want to make a sound to disturb people, suffocated in their hearts, their eyes are moist, and tears are about to burst.
When Lu Yunxiang saw this scene, he didn't want to cheer up the guests, so he made him sad for a long time, after all, such a sad and idle time will become more and more rare in the future, and the conflict between the rivers and lakes and the court is just at the beginning, and the day of chaos and strife is coming step by step.
Fang Dao this line of people follow Tao Ming's intentions, all the way to the west, on the way to the night rest Xiaoxing, although Zhao Ping no longer dare to send troops to chase and kill, but can not be taken lightly, now still in the shallow water realm, every time to the village do not dare to enter the village to borrow, had to hide in the depths of the forest, from the light force of the higher people quietly to the village to steal food. Wave
Another disciple in the vicinity of picking fruit hunting chat to satisfy hunger, this day everyone to a village near the place, seeing that the day is late, must have to rest, the day to continue, but the village is inconvenient to live, inevitably notice the traces so that others know where everyone goes, so they have to hide to the village edge of the bamboo forest to rest.
But everyone was tired and hungry, and they had to find food to fill their stomachs, so Fu Zhen Lu Yunqi asked for orders to go to the village to find it, Zheng Kai and Ye Qiu also invited themselves to go with them to explore, Lu Youzi allowed it, and only told not to be noticed.
The four of them received the order, walked out from the bamboo inside, and walked to the near entrance of the village, seeing no traces of people, but the households inside were smoky, Ye Qiuxi said: "Look at these black smokes, I can smell the aroma of cooked food and rice from many distances." Zheng Kaile said: "Look at you happy, you will cry later." Ye Qiu said: "Why? I wait for the people in the rivers and lakes, I can always do it by stealing some food to eat." Fu Zhen said: "These families are a little closer to the hanging town, they must have heard about the major events in the town, if they notice that their own rice food is missing, they will definitely be suspicious, if they go to the town to complain, wouldn't it let people know our whereabouts?" Lu Yunqi said: "Yes, in this way, we must not only steal cooked food, but also not let people notice." Ye Qiu said: "If we steal food out of the village, those farmers will definitely know, we can't let them find out, and we have to steal food, how can this happen?" Zheng Kai said: "If our family steals a little, it will not be easily detected, and it can also be fooled." Lu Yunqi said: "This is a good way. Ye Qiu said: "What kind of good way is this? The family steals a little, we have a population of nearly forty, how long are we going to steal?" Fu Zhen said: "Why don't you go to the village to take a look, and then make a decision?"
The three of them unanimously agreed, so a few people walked quietly, after entering the village, they immediately found a hidden place, each household cooked dinner, no one in the village wandered, the four did not need to fly the eaves to avoid themselves, only stood on the road towards the cooking smoke, and found the first farmer's house, and it was a willow courtyard that appeared in front of him, the house was high and Wahe, the courtyard was wide and wide, but it was a good place to steal food, Fu Zhen secretly felt that it was inconvenient for the four people to act, so he discussed with the other three people a little, and the four of them entered the house in two ways, Ye Qiu saw this household first, so he went with Zheng Kai, Fu Zhen and Lu Yunqi went another way, bypassing this willow courtyard to the east.
Zheng Kai Ye Qiu butted the wall on the wall, paced on it, the willow wood in the courtyard leaned against the wall, the wooden branches and willow leaves covered the body, the two of them walked to the eaves of the corridor, jumped on the inclined tile, walked lightly, came to the backyard to see the kitchen chimney spit dust, the taste of the food is gradually fragrant, it should be rice that is cooked, Ye Qiuxi said: "Senior brother, this meal is fragrant, let's go and steal some." Zheng Kai smiled and said: "You only smell the aroma of food, but you don't even smell any of those delicacies?" Ye Qiu replied: "There must be a lot of good food in this big compound, but why do I only smell the fragrance of rice?" Zheng Kai said: "It must be those cooks at home who cook in separate rooms, and you can find out if you go further." ”
The two of them bowed down and jumped down to walk on the wall, and were walking to another eaves, but saw a coarse-shirted slave walking out of that house, the two of them hurriedly jumped on the eaves and lowered their bodies to hide, only to see the slave holding a food plate, a few bowls of built-in food, walking slowly, always looking back and forth, walking in the courtyard suddenly stopped and looked at the left and right, everywhere behind the wall and corridor, Zheng Kai and Ye Qiu and the two were lying on the rubble, almost being awakened, fortunately there was the eaves to cover it, otherwise the consequences would be unbearable, and stealing food would be fruitless.
Seeing that there was no sign everywhere, the servant immediately took out a delicate vial from his bosom, uncorked it, and poured a few drops into one of the bowls, and added a few drops to each of the others.
Zheng Kai avoided behind Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu lay on the eaves and saw it clearly, and when the servant walked into the front room, Zheng Kai was about to go inside, but Ye Qiu said: "Senior brother, this guy has bad intentions, let's go and take a look." Zheng Kai said: "What's the matter? What did that little guy do?" Ye Qiu said: "Senior brother, didn't you see it? He drugged that bowl. Zheng Kai said: "I hid behind you, and I didn't see it, what did that little guy want to do?" Ye Qiu said firmly: "I must poison the head of the family." Zheng Kai said: "How do you know?" Ye Qiu said: "That little guy is sneaky, looking up and down, looking left and right, he must be afraid of being known by others, the dishes in this tray are good, not for the main food of the family, who can it be for? Zheng Kai said: "Are you going to expose his crimes? If something goes wrong, not only will you be notorious as a nosyman, but you will also be accused of trespassing in other people's courtyards, and our identities will be exposed." Ye Qiu said: "Then you can't see death and not save it, hurry over, it's too late." ”
After that, he pulled Zheng Kai to walk over quickly, jumped to the roof, and then walked to the eaves of the corridor, and then turned over and went down after feeling that he was safe, hiding by the window, wiping some saliva on his fingertips, piercing the window paper, and looking through the gap.
Seeing the cupboards inside, the bed, and the dresser, the flower face realm, it must be a woman's residence, Zheng Kai whispered: "There is no one in the house, the woman must have gone out of the house to eat." Ye Qiu said: "But there are so many houses in this house, which one is a dining house." Zheng Kai said: "I have to find them one by one, and I don't have to poke the window paper to look at it, just listen to it." Ye Qiu said angrily: "Then you don't stop me, after spending all this time, go quickly, otherwise it will be too late." ”
Zheng Kaigang wanted to argue, but Ye Qiu pulled his sleeves and hurried to another room.
The two of them walked a few steps, suddenly heard the sound of the voice gradually coming, panicked for a while, saw a maid in the alleyway, immediately luckily jumped, the two of them placed on the top of the corridor, the maid took a bowl of porridge and soup through Zheng Kai Ye Qiu crossed the threshold into the house, Ye Qiu said: "This house must be for dining." ”
Just as he was about to go down the corridor, Zheng Kai said: "Don't worry, if there is no sound in the dining house? ”
