Out of the town, along the way there were people fleeing south, some pushing carts, some pulling carts, some carrying clothes and quilts, some carrying food, some riding horses and oxen, and some carrying children...... The sound of yelling, shouting, the crying of children, the cries of cattle and sheep...... It fills the entire road, and it is even more lively than the downtown area.

Xiao Ling'er didn't urge the horse, and let it run on its own.

For the concept of war, in Xiao Ling'er's mind, it is not very clear, only seeing the brutality of the Jin people, the anger in his heart is born, but he can't resist the enemy, he only has the ability to escape, and he is ashamed in his heart.

Xiao Ling'er's surname is Hu, she has lived in Yingtianfu since she was a child, not far from the imperial city in a compound, two years ago one night in winter, Xiao Ling'er was woken up by a sound of neighing horses, and saw her father and mother running to her room in a panic, and told the housekeeper Liu Dadao: "Now that Prime Minister Zhao Cheng has been exiled because of the main battle, Qin Hui has been promoted to the prime minister, and we are now implicated as Prime Minister Zhao Cheng's old department. ”

Liu Da knelt on the ground and cried: "The master was wronged, why don't you go and avenge the saint." ”

Father sighed: "Now the imperial court is the world of the peace-seeking faction, the main battle faction has all been arrested, killed, I don't regret to die, I just hope that General Yue and others will return, destroy the Jin people, and return me to the Great Song Dynasty Heshan, but the imperial court has Qin, Wan Qian and others, there is little hope, and my Great Song Dynasty is also in danger." ”

At this time, the outside shouted: "Hugh has left the evil party, rush me." ”

The mother urged with tears in her eyes: "Hurry up, if you don't leave, it's too late." ”

Xiao Linger didn't know what was going on, but she was reluctant to leave when she saw her parents panicked like this.

The father ordered Liu Da with a serious face: "Go now, change Xiao'er's name immediately after you go out, and don't come back." After speaking, he couldn't help but say something, and pushed Xiao Linger and Liu Da out of the door.

After Liu Da took Xiao Ling'er and quietly slipped out of the back door, he didn't dare to stay and ran all the way until dawn.

In order to prevent others from paying attention, Liu Da changed the surname Hu to the surname Xiao, and the clothes of the two also changed to the appearance of ordinary people, and said to Xiao Linger not to say that his surname is Hu in the future, and to take Xiao as his surname.

Xiao Ling'er seemed to understand something, but he didn't know that he had just left the house, his father, mother and others had been murdered, and he was the only one left in the Hu family.

On the third day of Liu Da's escape with Xiao Ling'er, they were still chased by 10 masked men on the road, and the housekeeper Liu Da was killed, just when the knife was about to cut Xiao Ling'er's head, an old beggar suddenly appeared and killed all these masked people with three punches and two kicks.

The old beggar glanced at Xiao Ling'er and said: "You kid, look at your clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, your appearance is extraordinary, your father must have offended someone in the court, so he was hunted down and killed like this, so I will be a good person, take you to Jiangnan, and leave when you are safe." ”

The old beggar took Xiao Ling'er all the way south, Xiao Ling'er felt that the old beggar was a good person, so he told the old beggar about his life experience, and the old beggar sighed after hearing it: "It turns out that after being loyal to Liang, someone has come to hunt you down and kill you, proving that your father and others have been victimized, so you can follow my old beggar to be a little beggar, let's walk the world, so that we can also save our lives." ”

In this way, Xiao Linger followed the old beggar and traveled all over the world, seeing that Xiao Linger had no power to restrain the chicken, and the old beggar also taught Xiao Linger a method of meditation and exhalation, and said to Xiao Linger that this is something that must be done every day.

In the eighth year of Shaoxing, Song and Jin reached a collegiate agreement, and Song canceled the national name, became a vassal state of Jin, and paid tribute to Jin every year.

When the old beggar heard the news, he beat his hands and paused: "Shame, it's a great shame." ”

Sui said to Xiao Ling'er that he was going to the north to do an important thing, and asked Xiao Ling'er to take care of himself, and then said goodbye one night without saying goodbye.

In fact, it's good to be with the old beggar, the old beggar is different from other beggars, although the clothes are tattered, but they are clean and tidy, and Xiao Linger is not allowed to be sloppy.

Xiao Ling'er was reminiscing about the days with the old beggar, when she suddenly heard Shuang'er behind her say: "Brother Xiao, there is no one on the road." ”

Xiao Ling'er came back to her senses and found that the white horse had run far away, and there were no people fleeing south on the road.

Xiao Ling'er slowed down the horse.

Shuang'er asked, "Brother Xiao, you said that the Jin soldiers were brutal, why didn't we organize to resist and run away instead?"

Xiao Ling'er said: "It may be that the Jin soldiers are too powerful, we can't beat them." ”

Shuang'er asked again: "I heard my father say that we have driven the Jin soldiers across the Yellow River and were beaten away by us, why are we coming back now? Why do we have to run away despite our victories?" She was with her father, and from time to time she heard some things about the war, so she asked.

Xiao Ling'er thought to herself: How do I know these things, your father is a general, why don't you ask him to go. said to Shuang'er: "I don't want to fight, I don't know, he will tell you when he sees your father." ”

After walking for another hour, I saw a fork in the road in front of me, and there were more than a dozen people riding on horses on the side of the road, holding weapons, except for a few people dressed as peasants.

Xiao Tianle was shocked, he met the robbers, reached out and touched a few money bags in his arms, thinking that if he gave them these bags, he should be able to let himself and Shuang'er go. I also thought about what if these people not only robbed but also killed people! The other side had many people and horses, and they would definitely not be able to escape.

At this time, these dozen people had already seen Xiao Ling'er, and it was too late to run, Xiao Ling'er stepped forward hard-headed, only to feel Shuang'er's hands behind him hugging his waist tightly.

A man with a tiger head gun walked over and bowed his hand to Xiao Ling'er and said, "Little brother, please stay." ”

Xiao Ling'er thought to herself that this robber had a good face, how polite he could be to rob, and opened her mouth to reply: "What do you want?"

The man was stunned for a moment and smiled: "My name is Xing Yuan, may I ask where the little brother is going!"

A man with a double hammer in the back crowd said: "Big brother, we scared people, thinking that we were bandits who blocked the road and robbed." ”

The rest of the crowd burst out laughing.

Xing Yuan continued: "We are here to welcome the heroes who went to Ezhou to gather together to oppose the golden plan, did the little brother hear the news and come with me and the others." ”

Xiao Linger thought to herself that I don't know where I'm going now, how can I know Ezhou.

The man with the hammer urged the horse to come forward and said, "Big brother, don't you see that they are two brothers and sisters, they are fleeing." He looked at the white horse that Xiao Ling'er was riding again: "But it's a good horse." ”

Xing Yuan continued: "Little brother, if there is chaos today, there are remnants of soldiers everywhere, where are you two brothers and sisters going? ”

Xiao Ling'er already knew that these people were not robbers, so she put her mind at ease: "We are going to Jiangnan." ”

Xing Yuan nodded, pointed to the road on the left, and said: "This leads to Jiangnan, your brothers and sisters ride a good horse, you should be careful along the way, try not to take the big road, we will meet later." ”

"Thank you, Xing Daxia. Xiao Ling'er thanked her, turned her horse and ran to the left.

Watching Xiao Ling'er and the two go away, the hammer man said, "Big brother, the white horse that this brother and sister is riding is the Moon Thunder Horse?"

Xing Yuan looked at Xiao Ling'er's back and said: "Exactly, this horse is tall, neighing like thunder, running at night like a day, can travel thousands of miles a day, and travel eight hundred at night, but how can this horse be in the hands of this young man? Who is this young man?"

Xiao Ling'er was startled just now, thinking that he had met a robber, he was not scared, but fortunately he was fine, and he didn't let out a long breath until he ran a distance, and he could feel that Shuang'er who was holding him behind him was also nervous, because Shuang'er's heartbeat had already reached his back.

"Okay, it's okay. Xiao Linger said.

Hearing Xiao Ling'er speak, Shuang'er may have sensed something, let go of the hands holding Xiao Ling'er, and grabbed his clothes instead, his face was shy, thinking that it was good that he didn't let Brother Xiao see his face, otherwise he would have died of shame.

The two walked for another half an hour, and saw a tea shop at the T-junction in front of them, and the hunger suddenly hit.

"Let's go get something to eat before we go. Xiao Linger said.

After running for a few hours, Shuang'er was already hungry, so he nodded: "Well, listen to Brother Xiao." ”

The two came to the tea shop and got off the horse, Xiao Ling'er led the horse over, a guy-like person with a towel on his shoulder, and ran over with a smile: "What are you two eating?"

Xiao Ling'er said: "Meat, wine, and so on, and cook two bowls of noodles." "He and his master go out to eat like this, so they call for meat and wine.

The guy looked at Xiao Ling'er, and the smile on his face suddenly disappeared: "I said little brother, there is meat and wine, but it's just ......"

Xiao Ling'er was brained: "It's just what, just go up." ”

The guy hugged his hands in front of his chest: "I'm just afraid that the little brother won't have any money to give after eating." ”

Xiao Ling'er took out a silver ingot from her arms: "Is this enough?"

The smile on the man's face showed again, and he took the reins from Xiao Ling'er's hand: "The two of you will sit down for a while, and you will come right away." ”

The two found a table to sit down, Xiao Ling'er stepped on the bench with one leg as soon as he sat down, he felt comfortable and comfortable to eat like this, and the master was like this, he raised his eyes and saw Shuang'er looking at him, Xiao Ling'er smiled embarrassedly and put his feet down.

Xiao Ling'er was very hungry, she quickly ate most of the bowl of noodles, stuffed a piece of beef in her mouth, picked up the wine jug on the table, raised her head and prepared to pour it into her mouth, her eyes glanced at Shuang'er, and seeing that she was looking at herself, Xiao Ling'er stretched out her tongue and put the wine jug down. I thought that it was uncomfortable to eat with Shuang'er, and it was better to be free with the master.

Shuang'er stopped eating half a bowl of noodles, and looked at Xiao Ling'er.

Xiao Ling'er was embarrassed to be looked at, and said to Shuang'er: "Don't you keep staring at me? ”

Shuang'er smiled, blinked her big eyes, and showed two small dimples on her face, which was very good-looking.

Xiao Ling'er couldn't help but look at Shuang'er blankly.

Shuang'er was embarrassed to be looked at: "Tell me not to look at you, what are you staring at me again?"

Xiao Ling'er said: "I'm not good-looking, Shuang'er, you are good-looking." ”

Two blushes appeared on her cheeks: "Brother Xiao, you are so bad." ”

"Shopkeeper, serve me two pots of good wine and cut 10 gold beef. A gruff voice shouted.

Xiao Ling'er looked up and saw two men walking over, one with a full face and an iron spear in his hand, and the other with a white face and an iron rod in his hand, the two of them were strong and walked to a table next to them and sat down.

The white-faced man said: "Big brother, our two brothers went to Ezhou this time, did you say that you would meet General Zhang, and if you can serve under his account, you will not make this trip." ”

Xiao Linger thought to herself: It's Ezhou again, it seems that something big is going to happen in Ezhou.

The bearded man said: "Brother, don't worry, this matter was called by General Zhang, he will definitely be there, we will hurry away after eating, don't fall behind the other heroes." ”

At this time, there were 4 more people on the road who were armed with different weapons and dressed as martial arts people, and when one of them passed by Bai Ma, he made a "pout" in his mouth.
