Da Kui smiled: "Are there any prisoners in the prison of your county ya?"

Xia Qingzhong was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "My lord forgives the crime, the lower officials are not strict in enforcing the law, but there are lawbreakers in prison." ”

Seeing that Xia Qing was loyal and frightened, Da Kui couldn't help but smile and said, "This official doesn't mean to blame you, but he just needs Lord Xia to be so ......." Da Kui whispered softly, which made Xia Qingzhong stunned.

After Da Kui finished speaking, Xia Qingzhong shook his hand again and again and said, "Absolutely never, absolutely never." ”

Da Kui was a little impatient and said: "Just do what the official instructs, and the official will take care of anything that happens." Saying that, Da Kui pondered for a moment before continuing: "Today, the official will leave, and Lord Xia will arrange it." After Da Kui finished speaking, he went back to the backyard.

Da Kui's luggage is not much, he is still a burden, and his clothes have changed back into ragged clothes and trousers. According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, when a member of a product travels, there must be a guard of honor with 1,000 guards and 500 guards. But Da Kui is alone, and he doesn't like to work and move the people, so the people's cotton clothes and pants are the best cover.

Xia Qingzhong came to see Da Kui again, and when he saw Da Kui's dress, he not only asked in surprise: "Xia Guan has prepared carriages and horses for adults, why is this?"

Da Kui laughed and said, "Excuse me, I have the black wind as my companion." "Black Wind is the name that Da Kui gave to the dark horse, and Da Kui likes this name very much. 'Black Wind Treading Snow' is inevitably a bit of trouble.

Xia Qingzhong was very embarrassed and said, "My lord, what you ordered has been done, but it's just ......." ”

Da Kui waved his hand and said, "It's okay, and the official will leave." ”

Xia Qingzhong presented Xie Tianhua's donation paperwork, and Da Kui carefully accepted it in his arms. After saying goodbye to Xia Qingzhong, Da Kui took the burden and led Heifeng out of the yamen of Hanzhong County.

Da Kui's outfit is not eye-catching, but the black wind is a little enviable. Black Wind is slender and muscular, a full head taller than ordinary horses. How can such a horse not attract people's attention, especially Da Kui, who is dressed in tattered clothes but leading a good horse, which attracts the attention of the people.

Out of Hanzhong County and then to the south is already sparsely populated, Da Kui muttered while walking again: "Even if you walk on foot, I will also take you back, and I will give you grass and feed you every day." I still have fresh beans at home, and seasonal melons and fruits in summer and autumn, you are blessed, hehehe. ”

As he was walking, he came to the edge of a dense forest, and Da Kui still said with his burden: "Look at me, I'd rather carry the burden myself than burden you, and wait until someone goes to a place where I can take a bath." ”

At this moment, two figures suddenly flashed out of Lin Nei to block the way, and Da Kui looked up to see that it was actually two big men. The one on the left had a rough face and a gray cotton robe, and the other fierce god had an old scar on his face. Just these two, if they walk in the crowd, it is estimated that others will walk around, and at this moment, the figure of the deep barren mountains and wilderness has appeared, and it is self-evident that they are robbing the road.

"Those who bear the burden will leave the money and let you live, otherwise the white knife will go in and the red knife will come out. The scar-faced man let out a loud cry and pulled out a short knife from his bosom.

Da Kui was so shocked that he sat on the ground, got up and said with a bitter face: "I'm just a merchant, where is there any money." The two heroes raised their noble hands and let me go. ”

The two strong men rushed to Da Kui without saying anything, the scar-faced man actually kicked Da Kui to the ground, and the other grabbed Da Kui's burden and untied the rope and rummaged for a while. After looking for a long time and not seeing anything valuable, the two evil men couldn't help but be furious, and rushed to Da Kui's side with punches and kicks.

Hei Feng was originally led by Da Kui, and when he saw two big men beating Da Kui, Hei Feng snorted and flashed to the side of the road. Until Da Kui was silent, the two evil men were also tired of fighting, and they summed up with each other: they couldn't go back empty-handed after a hard trip. Seeing the dark horse on the side of the road, the two villains couldn't help but look at each other and laugh.

Who knew that when he came to lead the horse, the black wind turned around, and a pair of hind hooves were violently pushed back, and the scar-faced man was kicked in the lower abdomen before he could react. This hoof can be described as fierce, and the scar-faced man was kicked out more than two miles and rolled to the ground.

The other man was shocked, and hurriedly went to take care of his companion, and it took a long time for the scar-faced man to come back to his senses. He was helped to his feet by his companions. "Brother, this horse is too strong. Forget it, the right to go for nothing today. The other man nodded, and then he helped the scar-faced man away from the land of right and wrong.

Da Kui lay on the ground for a long time, and Black Wind stood on the side of the road. Xu was a little thirsty, and the black wind ate the snow on the roadside from time to time, and the grass under the snow became a delicacy.

After another cup of tea, Hei Feng slowly approached Da Kui, first arching Da Kui's head with his mouth, but there was no movement. The black wind went to arch Da Kui's body again, and Da Kui finally moved.

The north wind blew, and Da Kui choked and coughed twice, but he looked very weak. He had just stood up with the rope around Black Wind's neck, and his feet slipped and he fell to the ground again. Da Kui looked pained, climbed forward with his hands and feet for a while, and rested for a long time before he managed to pack up the scattered bags on the ground.

It seems that Da Kui is seriously injured, and even getting up is a luxury. The dark horse stared at Da Kui with big eyes for a while, and then walked to Da Kui's side. went to Gong Dakui as before, and then climbed down on all fours.

Da Kui wanted to laugh, livestock are livestock after all, and even psychic people will not understand the sinister nature of the human heart. It's all a trap in order to tame this dark horse. After many days of getting along, Da Kui can be said to be deliberately trying to please the dark horse, and gradually there was less estrangement between the people and horses, and then Da Kui's bitter trick finally made the black horse admit the master.

There are only two ways to tame a good horse, one is to subdue its body and control its wild nature. The second is to subdue its heart and let it confess the Lord. The red cloud back then was the former, and the black wind is the latter today.

Da Kui carried the burden in his hand, pretending to be seriously injured and climbed onto Hei Feng's back. Hei Feng waited until Da Kui climbed steadily, and then his body shook and stood up. Black Wind didn't go any further south, but turned around and walked the way he came. Da Kui couldn't help but marvel in his heart, this black wind was really smart, this was to send him back to the Yamen of Hanzhong County.

At first, the black wind was very slow, but then it slowly accelerated. Although he was on horseback, Da Kui didn't feel very bumpy, and the stability of this horse was even better than that of Hongyun.

Originally, he didn't go far out of Hanzhong County, and before the tea time, Heifeng ran back to the county office. The messenger on duty at the yamen couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Hei Feng and Da Kui on the horse, and the team leader turned around and ran into the yamen. After a short time, Xia Qingzhong hurriedly went out of the gate to greet him, and everyone helped Da Kui off his horse and carried him into the yamen.

Hei Feng stood outside the door and waited, and after half an hour, he saw Da Kui come out in high spirits in an official uniform. Da Kui was followed by two subordinates, who were holding the saddle and horse chew that had been prepared long ago.

Hei Feng looked at the subordinates of the two county officials vigilantly, Da Kui came over with a smile and hugged Hei Feng's neck, patted the horse's neck lightly and whispered: "If you don't follow me to the three mountains and five mountains, won't you empty your foot strength?"

Everything was cleaned up, and Da Kui liked it even more when he saw Heifeng again. At this time, Xia Qingzhong took the officials in the county government out of the gate, and Da Kui officially said goodbye.

At this moment, Da Kui's fresh clothes and angry horses showed their heroic appearance, and their bags were no longer carrying burdens, but were tied into a burden and hung on the saddle. Da Kui rode his horse all the way to the south, and the black wind really lived up to its name, his body was like an arrow and his hooves flew over, and he rushed out of Hanzhong County in a blink of an eye. Da Kui found the feeling of galloping back then, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

After a journey to the south, he turned to the southeast, and at noon the next day, he had reached the boundary of Xiangyang. Hanzhong is nearly a thousand miles away from Xiangyang, and it has arrived at the ground in just half a day and one night, and Da Kui can't help but marvel that Heifeng is really a peerless breed.

In order not to disturb the Xiangyang government, Da Kui found an inn to settle down, rested for a day and then headed south the next morning. Passing through De'an Mansion and galloping straight to Anqing. As long as you arrive at Anqing Mansion and go down the river, you can return to Jingshi Yingtian in less than two days. But Da Kui was anxious, and when he arrived in Anqing, he did not take a boat, but crossed the Yangtze River to Huizhou Mansion and went east by land.

It takes two days by boat, but it only takes one day by land. Even if the boat takes advantage of the water for hundreds of miles a day, it may not have the fast feet of the black wind. On the way from Huizhou to Yingtian, Da Kui saw a large number of soldiers and horses mobilized. It seems that the imperial court is dispatching troops and preparing for another northern expedition. In other words, Lanzhou's urgent letter had been sent to the Privy Council, and Emperor Taizu had already begun to act.

After another day, Da Kui returned to Jingshi Yingtian at dusk. The first thing to do now is to report to the ministry, and then to meet Emperor Taizu to show the military situation in Lanzhou. The moment he entered the city, Da Kui only felt like a world away. Everything is so familiar and yet a little unfamiliar.

The Yamen of the Ministry of Officials is located in the west of the Imperial City, and after Da Kui enters the city from the Xihua Gate, he goes straight to the Yamen of the Ministry of Officials. It is said that this kind of thing does not need Da Kui to go in person, but at this moment, Da Kui is alone, even if it is a small thing, he has to do it himself.

Coming out of the ministry, a bunch of city soldiers came to guard a soft sedan chair. The one who led the troops was a partial general. This general led the team to Da Kui, and not far away, he ordered the team to stop and come forward alone.

"Is this Lord Zhang, the left capital of Zhongshu Province?"

Da Kui rode on his horse and nodded slightly: "It's this official, who are you?

The partial general knelt down on one knee and hugged his fists in salute: "The last general, Feng Xi, is a subordinate of Marshal Ma Zhuguo of the city defense army, and he is waiting for Lord Zhang here on the order of Lord Zhuguo." ”

Da Kui couldn't help but be stunned, no one knew about his return to Beijing, how did this Admiral Sun know that he was back? Although he was puzzled in his heart, Da Kui still said quietly: "Just lead the way in front of your head." ”

Feng Xi continued: "The last general has prepared a soft sedan chair for adults, please get off the sedan chair." ”

"Hehe, this official's horse is a little fierce, and ordinary people can't get close. It's better for the official to ride away, but if it hurts someone, it's not good. Da Kui smiled and declined Feng Xi's kindness.

After all, there is a difference between respect and inferiority, and Feng Xi saw that Da Kui was not easy to force like this, so he turned around and took the team to protect Da Kui and went all the way to the east.
