Chapter 61: Eye-catching

Erlong Mountain was named after the grass co., originally called Dabei Mountain by the nearby locals, and later a pair of twin brothers appeared out of nowhere, learned a good martial arts, subdued several bandits and bandits nearby, occupied the mountain as the king in Dabei Mountain, and changed its name to Erlong Mountain.

Yuan came and Yuan went to the brothers, claiming to be the head of the dragon, regardless of size.

Li San'er arrived at the door of the cottage, his hands on his knees, bent over and panting.

When the guard in front of the gate saw someone coming, he came forward with a spear to interrogate, walked in, and said: "Yo, isn't this the Li San'er brother who took refuge in Heifengling, what's the matter, is this a letter sent for your big boss, or is it that you can't eat meat over there and run back to our Erlongshan to drink soup?"

Li San'er wiped a handful of sweat and said: "Don't grind, you know a fart, Lao Tzu's trip to Heifeng Village was arranged by the dragon, take me to see the dragon." ”

The man was suspicious, and looked at Li San'er alone, and it didn't seem like he was telling a lie, so he said: "If you have anything to say, go tell the dragon, according to the rules, I have to search your body." ”

Li San'er's anger was almost relieved, and he said, "If you want to search your body, hurry up, don't delay my important matter." ”

The man stepped forward and casually touched Li San'er a few times, and then said, "Go in quickly, you are familiar with the road, and you don't need me to lead the way." ”

Li San'er hummed, and walked quickly towards the village.

Yuan Lai and Yuan Qu were drinking, and Yuan Lai said, "Second brother, you said that such a large number of goods, let him eat it in Heifeng Village?"

Yuan went to take a sip of wine, put a piece of meat in his mouth, and said while chewing: "That's not it, second brother, if you want to say that he Heifeng has taken a big advantage, the mountains are there, and we can't eat it even if we want to." It's funny to say, how much enmity the guard gang has with this surnamed Zhang, don't tell the news to Heifeng Village, and send someone to send a letter to our Erlongshan, in my opinion, I'm afraid that Niujiaoshan will also send news. ”

Since the two came out of their mother's womb, they didn't distinguish the eldest and the second, and in the end they all regarded themselves as the bosses, and more than 30 years have passed, so they are called.

Yuan Lai pinched a fried peanut and threw it into his mouth, snorted and said: "I heard that the surname Zhang is too good at trading, and the people of the Guard Gang can't make a lot of money, so they hold a grudge, and they don't dare to do anything because of the reputation of their Guard Gang. ”

Yuan went to pull a chicken leg and bit it, swallowed it, took another sip of wine, and said with a burp: "In this way, there is no one surnamed Zhang who can protect it, and the guards in Bazhou are afraid that no one will be willing to take over the Zhang family's business, so he has really picked up a big bargain." ”

Yuan Lai, who also pulled a chicken leg, said while gnawing: "I remember that you sent a spy to Heifeng Village, what is San'er called?"

Yuan went to take a sip of wine and said: "Li San'er, he is a very clever person, he has been sent for half a year, and there are also people from Heifeng Village and Niujiao Mountain in this mountain." But this time, after the Black Wind Village slaughtered this fat sheep, Li San'er really became his Black Wind Village, we are thieves, which is not for the sake of being fragrant and spicy. ”

While drinking here, someone came to report, "Tell the leader, then Li San'er is back." ”

The brothers looked at each other, this person really couldn't help but chatter, Yuan said, "Let him come in!"

Li San'er, who was about to tidy up his clothes in front of the door, thought about it and quietly wiped his face, when someone came out and said, "Third brother, the dragon head will let you in!"

After Li San'er entered the door, he saw the two people who were drinking, and hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "I have seen two dragon heads, Li San'er, I live up to the trust of the two dragon heads, and I came back with good news." ”

Yuan Lai said with a smile: "Yohe, come and listen, could it be that Heifeng Village has encountered hard stubble?"

Li San'er was stunned for a moment, and then said with admiration on his face: "It is worthy of being a dragon head, I guessed it right at once, I rushed back to tell the two dragon heads about it." ”

Yuan Qu jumped up and said, "What the hell is going on?

Li San'er described in detail the capture of Feng Sanwhip and the competition between Shi Yidao and Yuan Xi, and after finishing speaking, he took a breath, licked his lips and continued: "When the master of Feng Erzhai took us back to the village, I took the opportunity to run back, in order to make our Erlong Mountain have a time to prepare, I didn't rest much along the way, according to my estimate, now this caravan has just arrived in Xiangshui Town. ”

Yuan glanced at Yuan Lai, "Second brother, the opportunity has come, do you want to do it?"

Yuan Lai frowned, glanced at Li San'er, who was licking his lips below, and casually carried a jar of wine and put it aside and said: "Brother Li San'er has worked hard, you can drink this wine first, and then go to the room, let the old king who cooks get you a chicken to eat, and when this ticket is completed, your benefits are indispensable." ”

Li San'er stepped forward, carefully picked up the jar of wine, and said in a loud voice: "Xie Longtou appreciates the wine, and the villain will go down." ”

Yuan went and said, "Li San'er, well done, go and rest." ”

Li San'er went to the room with the wine in his arms.

Yuan said: "Second brother, that Shi Yidao's kung fu is not weak, you and my brother teamed up to fight against him just to have some upper hand, that young man can defeat Shi Yidao, I'm afraid that you and I may not be able to take advantage of it together." ”

Yuan went to lick his lips and said: "Second brother, why are you so! What are we? We are thieves, robbers, I said that Shi Yidao must have entered the water in his brain, so he competed with that young man, do so many people on our mountain eat white rice? Let's prepare in advance, set up an ambush, and when we see them coming, we don't need to say anything, just grab it." ”

Yuan Lai patted his head and said: "Yes, yes, second, it's still your head, look at me, I just heard Li San'er say that, I'm still thinking about the competition." We're robbers, what kind of martial arts, phew, it's the old man who misunderstands me. ”

Yuan went to pick up the wine jar and collided with Yuan Lai, the two took a big sip and laughed: "It's done!"

The meat has been delivered to the doorstep, how can it not be eaten?

——————————

Luoyue City, due to the south gate, Mo Liqing, the small commander guarding the city gate, looked into the distance, and a huge convoy slowly walked towards this side.

He looked closely, and the carriage in the middle of the convoy turned out to be a troika.

The banner held by the accompanying soldiers had a big "Yuan" character written on it.

The Son of Heaven does not go out, and the princes are in charge.

Now everyone in Luoyue City knows that the Tianjin Dynasty is about to change his surname, and Yuan Shixin, the king of the Great Jin Dynasty, is also the minister of the country, and he gives orders in Luoyue City, and the national teacher Huo Xingwei is only assisting on the side, which has the intention of Yuan replacing Sima.

It's just that for some reason, the adult Sima Wende is still sitting on the dragon chair, and the king is still courteous to him, but state affairs are handled by the minister and the national teacher.

Nowadays, the so-called state affairs are just the affairs of Yu and Yangzhou.

Seeing that it was a side by side royal car, Mo Liqing hurriedly ran down the city gate tower, five carriages, which were driven by the princes and kings, but now that the people in the side by side are in Luoyue City, the people in this carriage can only be the prince of the side by side, Yuan Bingde.

This is a big event, and he can't be lazy, Mo Liqing hurriedly knelt down with the soldiers guarding the city, but he didn't expect that Wang Jian, the commander of the Luoyue City garrison, would actually bring a team of men and horses to the city gate.

The convoy stopped as it approached the city gates.

Wang Jian led people out of the city gate, fifty zhang away from Yuan's car, Wang Jian got off the horse and only stepped forward.

Before driving, Wang Jian clasped his fists and saluted and asked: "Wang Jian, the commander of the Luoyue City garrison, came to greet the prince and the princess on the order of the national teacher.

In the carriage, Yuan Bingde frowned slightly, then his face returned to normal, and said to Sima Ruolan, who was a little tired beside him: "Lanlan, Luoyue City has arrived, after entering the city, we will first go to Xiangguo Mansion to rest, and then I will arrange for you to enter the palace to visit the Queen Mother." ”

Sima Ruolan Yu stroked her forehead with her hand, leaned on Yuan Bingde, and nodded gently.

Yuan Bingde didn't get out of the car, but said lightly: "Then thank you to the king, this prince came this time, he didn't bring many people, most of the entourages are people who serve the princess, the princess is a daughter, these entourages are indispensable, and I hope that the king will be convenient." ”

Wang Jian glanced at the convoy, although there were a lot of people, except for a few guards, the others did look like miscellaneous officers, so he said: "The prince laughed, and invited the prince and the princess to enter the city." ”

After speaking, Wang Jian turned around, and after getting on the horse, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go, escort the princess to Xiangguo Mansion." ”

Wang Jian led people in front, and Yuan's car drove slowly afterward, and after entering the city, he went straight to Xiangguo's mansion.

On the tower of the city gate, there were a pair of eyes staring at the convoy of the Yuan Mansion in the dark.

After arriving at Xiangguo's Mansion, after Wang Jian said goodbye, he took people away, and this prince never got out of the car from beginning to end, and he didn't even show his face.

The identity of the commander of the Luoyue City garrison is still worthy of Yuan Bingde, who is the son of the world, but in Yuan Bingde's eyes, this commander is afraid that he will not be able to do it for a long time.

The door of Xiangguo's mansion opened, and an old man came out, who was Yuan Shixin's personal butler, Yuan Zhong.

Trotting to the front of the car, Yuan Zhong hurriedly said: "The old slave Yuan Zhong greets His Royal Highness the prince and princess. ”

The carriage door opened, Yuan Bingde walked out first, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhong, I haven't seen you for many years!"

After speaking, he waved to the car, and Yuan Chengzhi also came out and got out of the carriage.

Yuan Chengzhi took Yuan Bingde's hand, smiled at Yuan Zhong, and shouted obediently: "Grandpa Zhong!"

Yuan Zhong looked at it twice and hurriedly said, "The old slave has seen His Royal Highness the little prince, and the little prince is so tall!"

Yuan Bing took Yuan Chengzhi a few steps forward, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhong is old!"

Yuan Zhong shook his head with a smile and said, "Let Your Highness smile, the old slave is now dizzy, and I don't know how many years I can serve the king." ”

A maid stepped forward to welcome the princess out of the carriage, and after helping the maid get out of the carriage, Sima Ruolan smiled at Yuan Zhong and nodded.

Yuan Bingde said: "Uncle Zhong, let's go, don't talk about those pomps and circumstance, let's enter the mansion, I haven't seen my father for many years." ”

Yuan Zhong smiled and said, "Shizi, princess, His Royal Highness the little Shizi, please." ”

The group entered the Xiangguo Mansion.

After entering the house, Yuan Bingde and Yuan Zhong were in front, and Yuan Chengzhi accompanied his mother behind.

Yuan Bingde asked Yuan Zhong in a low voice: "Uncle Zhong, my letter to my father, my father has received it!"

Yuan Zhong nodded and said, "The king has already ordered it to come down, and it is all up to the prince to arrange." ”

Yuan Bingde nodded and said, "Uncle Zhong, you should bother with it a little more, so that you can entertain yourself." ”

Yuan Zhong said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness the Prince of the World has tormented the old slave, this is the old slave's business. ”

Yuan Bingde smiled.

Yuan Shixin had already received a message from his subordinates, and sat in the hall waiting for the arrival of Yuan Bingde and his party.

After Yuan Bingde entered, he saw Yuan Shixin sitting on the main seat, standing in front of the door and waiting for a while, waiting for his beloved wife Sima Ruolan and son Yuan Chengzhi to enter, Yuan Bingde was in front, and his wife and children stepped forward together and saluted Yuan Shixin.

Yuan Shixin stood up and said with a smile: "I can count on you coming, Xiao Chengzhi, come over and let grandpa take a good look!"

Yuan Chengzhi glanced at Yuan Bingde, and Yuan Bingde said with a smile: "What's the matter, I haven't seen my grandfather for a few years, and I'm still unfamiliar?"

Yuan Chengzhi stuck out his tongue, stepped forward to stand beside Yuan Shixin, and whispered, "Grandpa, my grandson misses you." ”

Yuan Shixin laughed and said, "Good grandson, grandpa is also looking forward to you coming!"

After speaking, Yuan Shixin said to Sima Ruolan: "Ruolan, the Queen Mother's condition is gradually stabilizing, don't worry too much, wait for me to arrange it, you can enter the palace to visit the Queen Mother." ”

Sima Ruolan gave a salute and said, "Ruolan thank my father, I don't know, I don't know if it's okay to be happy now?"

Sima Xiangle is Sima Ruolan's younger brother, although she doesn't care about family and country affairs, but as the eldest sister, she still wants to know her brother's current situation.

After Sima Xiangle was deposed, he has been in the royal city.

Yuan Shixin frowned slightly, and then laughed and said: "Ruolan, you care about your younger brother, it is understandable, the abolished emperor is now in the palace, and he has not suffered any grievances, after all, he is the father of the current saint and the son of heaven of the Great Jin Dynasty." When you enter the palace, I can arrange for you to meet. ”

Sima Ruolan's eyes were filled with a little tears, Sima Xiangle was abolished, she was tormented in her heart, but fortunately, it was her nephew who was sitting on the dragon chair now.

Yuan Shixin was a little unhappy when he saw this.

The big hand patted Yuan Chengzhi's shoulder, and Yuan Shixin smiled: "Good boy, this body has good bones, can you pull down your schoolwork?"

Yuan Chengzhi puffed up his chest and said: "Grandpa, rest assured, my grandson is diligent in his studies and has never slackened." ”

Yuan Shixin smiled and glanced at Yuan Bingde.

Yuan Bingde said to Sima Ruolan: "Lan Lan, you are also tired, go and rest first!"

After speaking, he said to Yuan Chengzhi again: "Chengzhi, go, send your mother to rest." ”

Sima Ruolan saluted Yuan Shixin and said, "Father, daughter-in-law and son will retire first!"

Yuan Shixin nodded.

Yuan Chengzhi shook Yuan Shixin's arm and said, "Grandpa, my grandson will come to accompany you later." ”

Yuan Shixin pinched Yuan Chengzhi's fleshy face and said, "Okay, good!"

After the two of them went out, Yuan Shixin waved his hand, and Yuan Zhong, who was waiting at the door, closed the door and guarded the door.

Yuan Shixin put his hands behind his back and asked, "How sure are you about this?"

Yuan Bingde stepped forward and whispered: "Father, if you do it, it will be ten percent." ”

Yuan Shixin stared at Yuan Bingde, nodded and said: "It is worthy of being my Yuan Shixin's son, in the future, the world will be your world, and my father is old." ”

Yuan Bingde's eyes flashed and said: "The child promises that the father will sit on the dragon chair one day." ”

Yuan Shixin smiled.

It's not easy to sit on the dragon chair, but it's hard to sit firmly.

————————————

Xiangshui Town is about a day and a half away from Erlong Mountain, and after passing Erlong Mountain, it will take nearly two and a half days to reach the next town.

The first night, nothing happened all night.

As the second day approached noon, the caravan gradually approached Erlong Mountain.

Unlike the Black Wind Ridge, at this time the official road was a river beach on one side and a mountain on the other.

As soon as Yuan Xi stretched out his hand, the convoy stopped.

This was what he had discussed with Zhang Zhongqian, and it was close to noon, and the sun was shining, and they rested by the river.

Everyone drove the carriage down the official road and went to the river, while Yuan Xi and Chen Suisui stood on the official road, staring at the mountain on the other side.

Chen Suisui asked, "Brother Yuan, did you say they were inside?"

Yuan Xi nodded and said, "When we come out of Xiangshui Town, I'm afraid that we will be targeted by the people of Erlong Mountain." ”

Chen Suisui looked at the mountain not far away, leaned over and picked up a stone, and threw it over.

Yuan came and Yuan went to lead a group of people to ambush in the mountains and forests, and according to their plan, they wanted to outflank the caravan.

Yuan Lai, who was lying in the grass, frowned and looked at the caravan that was turning towards the river beach.

If you don't hurry up in the middle of the day, it's not time to rest.

I've been lying here for more than an hour, and I've finally looked forward to the goal, but it doesn't seem to be moving forward as planned.

The location chosen by Yuan Lai was not the best ambush point, but to wait for the caravan to pass and follow behind.

Yuan went to lead people to ambush three miles away, and the location there was just right.

The person on the side whispered: "Dragon, do you want to tell the dragon's head over there?" Look at this, they are going to rest here, and we just rushed out here to kill them by surprise.

Yuan Lai quietly glanced over there again, and saw that several carriages had already walked off the official road, and when they arrived at the river, only two teenagers were left on the official road to look this way.

Could it be that his ambush was discovered?

There is a distance of nearly a mile from the mountain to the official road, and there are many trees and grasses on my side, and they are well hidden, how can they be discovered.

Maybe it's just watching the wind from there.

"Li San'er, Li San'er!"

Yuan Lai called out softly.

Li San'er hid near Yuan Lai, and quietly touched it when he heard the sound, "Dragon's head, what's the matter?"

Yuan Lai suppressed his voice and asked: "Look at the two people on the official road, is there one you said, the one with good martial arts!"

Li San probed slightly and looked fixedly.

"Oops!"

A stone happened to hit him on the head, and he lay back with his head covered, and said with a sad face: "Dragon's head, yes, yes, they found us, and I was hit by a hidden weapon." ”

Fortunately, the stone that Chen Suisui picked was only the size of a walnut, but he just threw it away, otherwise Li San'er's head would only bloom.

In this way, he also felt a little confused, and in a trance, it seemed as if he was about to give birth to a horn on his head.

Yuan looked at Li San'er, who was covering his head and crying with a sad face, and scolded "Waste!"

In his opinion, it was Li San who was exposed.

Shout,

"Brothers, copy the guys, give it to Lao Tzu, do this ticket, we won't have to worry about eating and drinking for a year. ”

After speaking, he let out a long whistle and rushed out with everyone.

Yuan Qu was bored chewing weeds, just waiting for Yuan Lai to give a signal to kill, at this time he heard Yuan Lai's long whistle, so he shouted: "Brothers, give it to Lao Tzu!"

Just rushed to the official road and didn't see a figure, Yuan went to wonder what kind of signal was sent over there.

At this time, someone with sharp eyes noticed that someone was running towards this side, and shouted as he ran: "The dragon's head, in front, in front." ”

The person who came was Li San'er who was covering his head.

When Yuan came to rush, he shouted, "Longtou, I'll go and report to Longtou." ”

Yuan Lai, who was rushing forward, ignored him.

Chen Suisui was stunned, he just threw a stone casually, how could he smash so many people out.

With a surprised expression, he looked at Yuan Xi, "Brother Yuan, am I in trouble?"

Yuan Xi took out the bag containing peanuts and said with a smile: "Suisui, you are very suitable for hunting! ”

After saying that, he threw a peanut into his mouth and bent his fingers to start playing.

Chen Suisui saw Yuan Xi standing there just a few times with a wave of his hand, and then peanuts flew out of the air, and someone fell down in response, lying in the distance and wailing.

Yuan Lai didn't rush ahead, he was holding a nunchuck and waiting for his brother to come over, with his ability alone, he didn't have the courage to single out the young man.

It's just that the people on his side seem to have been cast by that person, and the young man made a few gestures, and someone on his side fell, more than thirty brothers, and seven or eight fell at this time.

Damn, why can't the second child come over yet, and isn't it slower than anyone else, can't he hurry up?

Rushing to a fallen brother, he tugged at his collar and asked, "What's the matter?"

The man covered his knee and said, "Dragon's head, leg, my leg was injured." ”

As soon as Yuan Lai touched his calf, the man shouted "Ah~", broke out in a cold sweat, and said, "Dragon's head, my calf is about to break!"

Yuan Xi took a very good shot, his peanut grains did not attack the vital point, all the people who were recruited were just temporarily incapacitated, don't look at this person's leg hurt badly, but his calf bone was actually not broken.

Yuan Lai scolded: "I can't die, what do you call? Lao Tzu just touched it, but it didn't break, I can't help this pain?"

Looking into the distance, he saw a group of people rushing over, and he was overjoyed, so he rushed over there, and the nunchucks in his hands were rounded and protected by his body.

Yuan Xi stared at this gang of bandits, and his hands kept moving, but he didn't find the twin brothers.

At this time, he also found that there were many people rushing over there, it seemed that there were more than thirty, and he also saw Yuan Lai with a nunchuck.

After popping out a few more peanut grains, he casually said to Chen Suisui: "Suisui, quick, go over there, do you see the person with the nunchuck, you go and intercept him." ”

Chen Suisui let out a low shout of "Okay!" and flew out.

took out another handful of peanuts, and when he saw that there were not many people left, he didn't continue to play, but shouted at the river: "Xiao Fei, there are a few people left for you to practice, remember, just don't kill people." ”

Cheng Shifei, who was hiding behind the carriage, saw that Yuan Xi was enjoying playing, and his heart was already itchy, and he jumped out with a Yanling knife and said loudly: "Brother Yuan, leave it to me!"

Yuan Xi's figure flashed.

There were only seven or eight people left who were standing, and when they saw their brothers lying down one by one, they all hid behind the trees and did not dare to rush forward, and there were three or four sharp-eyed ones, as early as when a few brothers were recruited, they also pretended to be tricked and lay on the ground.

Seeing the young man flashing towards that side, someone shouted: "Brother, hurry up, that person has gone over there, let's hurry up and grab it." ”

It's a big deal to grab some property and run away, who will return him to Erlong Mountain.

More than a dozen people rushed towards Cheng Shifei who jumped out, and Cheng Shifei, who was still extraordinary, was a little panicked, and stammered at Zhang Zhongqian: "Sister, brother-in-law, hurry, come out, it's time to practice!"

Chen Suisui was not slow, Yuan Lai felt that someone was about to catch up with him, so he looked back and saw that it was another young man.

Chen Suisui, who was holding the short sword, breathed again, toe to the ground, flew over, held the short sword horizontally, and intercepted it three feet in front of Yuan Lai.

Yuan Lai didn't say a word, and greeted Chen Suisui with a nunchuck.

Chen Suisui's pupils shrank, and then he smiled, the short sword was not unsheathed, but only a light block, and Yuan Lai's move was blocked.

Chen Suisui waited for the person in front of him to change his moves, but saw that the man slashed the nunchuck, and the dense shadow of the stick shrouded Zhou's body up and down, but there was no move to attack Chen Suisui.

Can you still fight like this?

Just when Chen Suisui was fighting with Yuan Lai, Yuan Xi had already flown to Yuan Qu's side, looking at the more than thirty people who were about to rush to him, he frowned, and flicked his fingers, but only one peanut popped out.

Yuan went to see that his eldest brother was stopped, and he was anxious, the martial arts practiced by their brothers, the power of the two is the greatest, Yuan is the main defense, and he is the main attack.

beckoning everyone to rush forward, he was going to join Yuan Lai as soon as possible.

Suddenly shocked, Yuan Qu didn't have time to react, and quickly blocked the sword in front of him.

With a crisp sound, the long sword in Yuan Qu's hand fell to the ground, he covered his left eye, fell down, and rolled all over the ground.

Above the blade, there is a hole the size of a peanut.
