Volume 1 Yu Chu Du Chapter 27 The First Entry into the Tiger's Den
The four of them were joking with each other, Zhang Min asked: "Sister Di came to Taiyuan this time, why is she alone? Where is the fourth uncle now?" Yuwendi's face was gloomy when he heard this, and he said sadly: "Fourth uncle, fourth uncle, he..." Yu Wendi choked up and said: "The fourth uncle was plotted by someone and unfortunately died. When Zhang Min heard this, it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and he couldn't help but stay where he was.
Yu Wendi was about to comfort him, but he waved his hand lightly and turned away. In the blink of an eye, tears welled up in his eyes.
After a while, Zhang Min gradually came back to his senses, he endured his grief and asked, "Who killed the fourth uncle?" Yu Wendi said: "Mrs. Silver Snake, the owner of Hedong Silver Snake Village. Zhang Min was stunned and stopped talking. Yu Wendi told how she and Liu Si went to Jingbeizhuang as guests, how she was wanted by the Qianren, how Liu Si was poisoned by needles, and how the two of them went to Silver Snake Village. Speaking of Liu Si's tragic death in the snake cave, Yu Wendi couldn't help but feel sad again, and sobbed softly.
After listening to this, Zhang Min remembered that Liu Si and himself were like father and son, but now they were separated by yin and yang, and he was sad and hateful in his heart, and gritted his teeth and said: "I will definitely avenge the enmity of the fourth uncle." After saying that, his eyes moistened again.
The four of them chattered for a long time, Zhang Min suddenly felt very hungry in his stomach, remembered that he hadn't eaten for a day, and left along the avenue with the three girls.
The four of them walked for a long time and came to a market in Taiyuan. When he saw an inn in front of him, he went in and sat down. Zhang Min called Xiao'er and asked for four bowls of Yangchun noodles and a few plates of candied fruit. Xiao Er agreed.
Yu Wendi asked about the situation since the separation in Pingyang Mansion that day, and Zhang Min told her about him and Sima Yunyi breaking into the deserted temple and straying into the Valley of the Hundred Beasts.
Speaking of separating from Murong Shangmei in the Valley of the Hundred Beasts, he paused and told the story of the various situations after he and Sima Yunyi climbed trees and left the valley.
It turned out that after the two of them climbed up the valley along the ancient vine that day, they came to Zhongshan according to Murong Shangmei's words, and after asking around, they learned the location of the Mirror Flower Nunnery. So the two of them rushed to the Jinghua Nunnery, and the nun in the nunnery took them to the Jingci Master's house. The two of them explained their intention to Master Jingci, and took out the half of the jade, Jingci saw the jade, and knew that Murong Shangmei had asked them to come, so she called Murong Rongyue out and met them in the room. At the beginning, Murong Rongyue refused to leave Shitai, and couldn't help crying when she said that she was emotional. Although Mrs. Jingci was also reluctant, she couldn't let her stay in the nunnery for a lifetime after all, so she persuaded her with kind words. Later, after Sima Yunyi told Murong Shangmei's words, Murong Rongyue reluctantly agreed to leave Jinghua Nunnery with Zhang Min.
Since the three of them left the nunnery, they have spent several months in the mountains and rivers of Zhongshan. One day, Zhang Min heard from each other that Taiyuan Mokun Temple invited heroes from all over the world to attend the meeting. Out of curiosity, he came to the Mokun Temple with his second daughter, but the great battle that happened later was unexpected. However, he met Yu Wendi here, but it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.
Speaking of this, Zhang Min looked at Yu Wendi with a very happy expression. After listening to this, Yu Wendi understood the reason, looked up and saw Zhang Min looking at him, and couldn't help laughing: "What is Brother Min looking at?" Zhang Minhan smiled: "I want to make up for all the thoughts I owe in the past year." Yu Wendi couldn't help but feel dizzy when he heard this, and hurriedly lowered his head.
While talking and laughing, Xiao Er had already brought up the wine and food. The four of them ate noodles, and they didn't feel hungry.
Yuwendi asked what to do next, only to hear Murong Rongyue say: "I want to go back to Liaodong to see my family first." The three of them knew that she had been in Jinghua Nunnery since she was a child and had never seen her grandparents. Zhang Min said, "We'll go with you." Sima Yunyi and Yu Wendi both nodded. Murong Rongyue thanked everyone for being kind to him, and his face was full of joy.
While the four of them were talking, they suddenly heard a group of men and horses rushing towards and surrounding the inn. Yu Wendi just said: "It's not good. I saw a few officers and soldiers rushing in, looking around, and then slowly walking to the table of four. One of the black-faced men who looked like an officer took out a picture from his arms, looked at Yu Wendi, and said loudly: "This person is a wanted criminal by the imperial court, arrest me." After saying that, several soldiers pounced on him, and Yu Wendi was arrested along with the other three.
The black-faced officer was overjoyed, hurriedly took the four out of the inn, ordered someone to lead a prisoner cart, escorted the four into the prisoner cart, and headed all the way north.
In just a day or two, the four of them have been escorted to the capital of Zhao State. The black-faced officer handed over the four to several chamberlains, who led them to the palace.
After another half a day, the four of them were escorted to the emperor of Zhao Wang Shihu.
Zhang Min looked up at Shi Hu and saw that he was black and fat, and his eyebrows were fierce. Yu Wendi remembered that his parents died at the hands of the rebels, and their leader was a person surnamed Shi. She faintly felt in her heart that that person was Shi Hu. Therefore, looking at Shi Hu, his eyes were full of hatred.
When Shi Hu saw the person who killed his son, his eyes were extremely red, and when he saw her glaring at him, he was immediately furious, and said, "You slave, why did you harm my child?" Yu Wendi glared at him angrily and said, "Shi Zhi was not killed by me." Someone else killed him. Shi Hu said angrily: "You still dare to quibble, my son painted your appearance before he died, and now here." How dare you deny it?"
Although Yu Wendi was angry with him, that Shi Zhishi was not killed by her, if he didn't distinguish it, he was afraid that it would cause an unwarranted disaster, and it would even affect the other three. So he approached Shi Zhi with Huang Youdao's disguise as himself, and after taking out the secret of King Yue's treasure, he killed Shi Zhi with poisonous decoction and so on, and talked to Shi Hu one by one.
After hearing this, Shi Hu couldn't help but stand up and scolded Huang Youdao, and asked where the thief was now. Yu Wendi said: "That old road has now taken refuge in Hedong Silver Snake Village. Shi Hu randomly ordered people to rush to the Silver Snake Village to capture Huang Youdao. The man hurried away.
Shi Hu saw that he was wrong and blamed the four of them, and hurriedly smiled: "Don't blame you, it's all such a poisonous plan arranged by that thief." As he spoke, he ordered the four of them to be untied and brought back to the guest room to entertain them.
The four of them followed the leader to an attic in the palace and arranged for them to live upstairs. After a while, someone brought in four plates of food.
The four of them discussed in a low voice in the room, and Zhang Min said: "Zhao Guobing is fierce and fierce, and he deserves to be called a tyrant in the north. Yuwendi said: "Karma is a murderous person and very cruel. Shi Hu is even more unreasonable, wantonly slaughtering my Hebei Han people. Such tyrants deserve to be damned. After saying that, he was still indignant. Zhang Min said: "Since Di Mei is so disgusted with this place, then we will go to Shihu to say goodbye in a few days." Yu Wendi said: "How can you endure it for a few more days? I will take the opportunity to leave this place tonight." ”
When Zhang Min heard this, he had no choice but to agree. The four of them had no intention of eating, so they rested in their rooms for a while, and then went out when it was dark.
After a long time, I saw that the sky was getting darker. After waiting for a long time, when it was late at night, the four men opened the door of the room, and when they saw that there was no one around, they slipped out of the palace along the way they came.
After the four of them left the palace, they walked around the city and saw that several city gates had been closed. Yu Wendi was afraid that after dawn, Shi Hu would find out that the four had fled, and he would harm them in anger. So he discussed with the three of them to find a hidden place to hide first, and then go out of the city after the city gate was opened at dawn.
Just as the four of them were discussing, they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, which was extremely loud in the empty street in the middle of the night.
