In another car, Peng Yushan was lying on Peng Yulan's skirt, looked at Peng Yulan's cheeks closely, and said softly: "Sister, Yushan lost her second servant, and the whole family abandoned the house and left, is this the fruit he wants?"

Peng Yulan hurriedly lifted the curtains, looked out left and right, and saw that Ye Qiu was a little far away from here, so she replied softly: "Sister, if you don't do this, you won't live for a day, people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat, what can I do?" Peng Yushan said with tears: "My sister has worked hard for half her life, and she will do everything to get the only few pills, how can she let her live with peace of mind in such an act?"

Peng Yulan leaned out of the window again, then retracted into the sedan chair and said, "Sister, I have endured it for so many years, why is it so resentful today?"

Peng Yushan got up and leaned against the window, her eyes were blank, as if the world was cold, the world was cold, the little girl outside the car had returned to the front of the car, Ye Qiu also entered the curtain and sat in the sedan chair, seeing that the two looked different, and questioned the reason, Peng Yulan said: "Yushan misses her brother and sheds a few tears." Ye Qiu comforted: "Miss Yushan, don't worry, with my senior brother and Senior Brother Xu's help, Peng Gongzi will never be fine." Peng Yushan said: "Thank you, Miss Ye." ”

Ye Qiuguan Peng Yushan's face was extremely empty, knowing that he should find a place to rest, the carriage and horses were in a hurry, Ye Qiu went out to look into the distance, and saw a small village for a while, and happily returned to the sedan chair and said: "There are villages in front of you that can live." Peng Yulan said: "If you don't delay, you can rest for a while, Yushan is cold, and it is not easy to toss too much." ”

Ye Qiu will go out and let the little guy go into the small village in front of him to find a family to rest for a while, the little guy will order to catch the car, Ye Qiu flew over the roof of the car and flew towards the rear car, and when he put the car in front of him, he entered the car to tell Mrs. Peng Huai that the village in front of him was temporarily resting, and the two of them understood, Ye Qiu went out and flew back to the front car, and fell on the car and got into the car.

Ten miles away from the second car, Peng Yubo was driving, and there was food left in the car, Zheng Kai and Xu Qing sat in the car with their injuries, and from time to time picked up pastries to fill their stomachs.

After Ye Qiu and others entered the village, they dismounted to look for a house, it was dawn at the moment, the family had not yet opened the door, Ye Qiu walked around half of the village, only found a household, the family was sweeping the floor outside the door, seeing Ye Qiu coming with a sword, panicked to avoid entering the door, wanting to close the door and refuse guests, but half of the door was not closed, but saw a finger on the door, Ye Qiu pulled the door and said: "Why did the old man hide when he saw me, do I look so fierce and evil?" The old man said: "You people really don't stop, the front foot goes out of the village, and the back foot comes to my house, why don't you go to another house to rest?" Ye Qiu said suspiciously: "Are you referring to someone who just went out of your house?" The old man said: "Yes, they came to live in my house last night, and they got up very early this morning, otherwise why did I get up so early, I am really tired of my old bones." ”

Ye Qiu took out a few pieces of broken silver from his bosom and handed them to the old man and hurriedly said, "Uncle, how many people are there in their group?" The old man said: "About forty more." Ye Qiuxi said: "How long have they been gone?" The old man replied: "It's been about an hour." ”

Ye Qiu hurriedly thanked the old man, hurriedly ran to the entrance of the village, approached the car, and saw that the four people were getting out of the car and walking, and when the four people saw Ye Qiu, they asked him: "Have you found someone who is willing to take us in?" Ye Qiu said happily: "Don't talk about these first, my master and other more than 40 people have just left the village, not far to the west, I want to get in the car to chase, Mrs. Peng and Mrs. Peng, you stay here first and wait for me to come back." ”

The four of them met, Ye Qiu jumped into the car, whipped the horse, turned the head of the carriage, and headed to the west outside the village.

In the shallow water area, the river is flooded, there are few farming everywhere for a living, all according to the boat transport Gukou, there are more mountains, rivers and grasses on both sides of the water, but it is said that Zheng Kaiyun sent two carts of food from Peng's house in the bamboo forest that night, all the martial arts people did not eat a grain for many days, they all devoured endlessly, and the food, wine and vegetables in the food box were empty, and they enjoyed it for two hours.

After the wine and food are full, the traces of food are consumed, the wooden bowl food box and the food bucket chopsticks are all hidden in one place, and the Peng house will know each other, and the day will send someone to the forest to get the food utensils back to the house. Yiyun Chinese

A group of people sheath out of the bamboo forest on the road, gradually from tomorrow, the warm sun shines, go west for a long time has never encountered a village fall, the disciples are full of food, the belly is still supported, since a day do not have to enter the water to eat, to noon will rest in the shade of the tree to settle, stay for a while to set off on the road, and after half a day to dusk, there is still no place to rest, the disciples are a little tired.

But can only continue to walk, to the time, only to see a small village in front, so everyone to speed up the pace, to the village when Lu Youzi suddenly said: "Everyone stop, I have something to say." ”

Everyone stopped and listened, Lu Youzi said: "We shouldn't disturb the villagers, firstly, to avoid exposing their whereabouts, and secondly, it is inconvenient to disturb them late at night, but I am too far away from Qingshui Town, there should be no large number of soldiers to come to arrest, and we are looking for a family to live temporarily, and live for a few hours at night, we need to leave before dawn, and we must not let other households know secretly." ”

Everyone received the order, and Lu Yunqi said: "I am afraid that it will be inconvenient if there are many people, why don't I find a place to live, and then tell everyone?"

Lu Youzi agreed, everyone had no objection, Fu Zhen asked to go together, Lu Yunqi went into the village with him to find a household, but it was the middle of the night at the moment, plus there have been a lot of fights in shallow water recently, the family closed the door, unwilling to see guests, the two knocked on the door and did not respond, it was not easy to disturb, and it was inconvenient to climb over the wall to enter the house, after all, borrowing half a night, not to lose the courtesy, seeing the light and candle in the house, hearing the knocking sound immediately extinguished the candle, but it was also the intention of chasing guests.

The two of them passed by a few households are in a general situation, and they had no choice but to continue to explore by themselves, until they passed by the door of a house, an old man was sitting on the wooden steps, holding a fan and waving the wind, looking at the sky and the moon from afar, and saw the two coming with swords, but there was no change, but he said lazily: "The two are not from this village." Fu Zhen said: "We are foreign travelers, I call Fu Zhen, she calls Lu Yunqi, we want to borrow a night at the old man's house, I don't know if it is convenient?" Lu Yunqi smiled: "Uncle, every family in this house is closed and no outsiders, why are you alone outside to enjoy the cool?" The old man said: "These people, they are as timid as rats, they can't withstand the wind and waves, it's nothing more than the urgency of the riverside fight, and they are scared like this?" Fu Zhen said: "It seems that the old man has a lot of experience, not like those laymen." The old man said: "That's not, I have no children and no daughters, I have no worries in my heart, but unfortunately I died at home, others don't know, people live to such an age, but also look at life and death lightly, you two hold long swords, the air is magnificent, when you are a person who practices martial arts, just said to borrow a night, just come in." Lu Yunqi said: "Thank you uncle, but I have a group of more than 40 people, can the old man's family accommodate such a number of people?" The old man said: "You young people, it's really not worry-free, my house is there, it was left to me by my father and brother in the early years, about eight rooms, the bedding is enough, a few people can barely fit it, I guess you must be fleeing Jianghu people, even if you have a house, you can't easily give you a place to live, if you attract the imperial army, wouldn't it poison the whole village?" Although the old decay does not spare his own life, he will never hurt the heavens and reason. ”

Lu Yunqi Fu Zhen looked at each other and pondered, and said in his heart that this old man seems to be light and light, but in fact his heart is like a mirror, so it is not easy to borrow, Fu Zhen thought for a while, and then said to the old man: "If the old man really doesn't want to, why do you want to say so many words, isn't it testing the two of us?" The old man smiled: " Shaoxia is really smart, the old man and brother are all shallow water disciples, but after entering the gang, there is no news, I hope you two can help me, naturally old age, father and brother do not exist in the world, but the old man and death have to find out the reason, and I hope the two can help the old man. Fu Zhen said: "I am a disciple of the Shallow Water Gang, the Shallow Water Gang has always allowed disciples to return to their hometowns to visit relatives, just ask the senior brother in charge of the matter, the old uncle and brother have no news in the shallow water, but they have never listened to the lecture." The old man said: "You naturally don't know, if the average disciple can understand the reason, the old man doesn't need to ask you two to investigate." Lu Yunqi said: "Although we don't know where to start, but the old man's trust, the two of us must remember it." The old man said, "In that case, you two will call your companions into the house to rest." Fu Zhen said: "Aren't you afraid that we will attract the imperial army?" The old man said: "The old man has admired the people of the rivers and lakes since he was a child, and you two ventured to come here to find a place to live. ”

Lu Yunqi happily turned around and ran towards the entrance of the village, Fu Zhen stayed here, and the old man said: "Fu Shaoxia, or watch the tea in the house?" Fu Zhen said: "Thank you." ”

The two entered the house, the old man saw Fu Zhen carrying a long sword wrapped in cloth, after Fu Zhen sat down, he poured a cup of tea from the pot and handed it to Fu Zhen, Fu Zhen took a few sips, and the old man said: "Shallow water disciples are used to holding all their palms, and it is very rare to see Fu Shaoxia with this long blade on his back." Fu Zhen said: "That was left to me by my master Huang Nansheng, and I have never used it in these days." The old man said: "Since the young man doesn't use the sword, why should he carry it on his body?" Fu Zhen said: "The master asked me to carry it on my back, and I can only obey the master's orders, so that the human sword is not divided into two people." ”

The old man nodded silently, a few people walked into the house, the old man glanced at it, the crowd outside the house was in rows, as he said, the number of people was slightly larger, but what he said was not false, the courtyard can indeed accommodate more than 40 people, Lu Youzi and other heads of the door should be the first to enter the door, bow to the old man and thank him, the old man replied: "The cold house is rough and simple, you don't need to be polite, just sit and sit at will, and all the knights outside quickly come into the house." Lu Youzi said: "There are many disturbances in the middle of the night, and I hope the old gentleman will not blame him." The old man said: "There is nothing to bother, the old bones, more people talk and polish the time, you can enter the eight rooms in the backyard to see, the door is not locked, you can push the door in, the inside has not been cleaned up for many years, and now the old decay is not able to clean up for you, please take it." ”

All the disciples bowed and thanked, and entered the courtyard one after another, when the sky was dark and the moon was high, they opened the guest house, and it was dark inside, and a few people entered the house to look for candles and light them, and after a while, each house was bright, and more than 40 people shared eight rooms.

There are about five or six people in a room, and the disciples divide the rooms, first tidy up, and then go into the house to get the mattress by themselves, or spread the couch or the floor.
