Chapter 588: The Messenger Sent by the Marshal

Wang Gan didn't have a lot of time to go out, and brought in a person from outside, this person covered his head with a green cloth, and there was a person in front of him who led the way with a wooden stick, and when he saw Xiaolin and Ouyang Zhonghui, Wang Gan walked over, and he said: "Old swordsman, Master Xiaolin." Someone sent us a letter. After speaking, he took out a letter and handed it to Ouyang Zhonghui. Ouyang Zhonghui looked at it, did not speak, he glanced at Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin stood up and walked out of the spirit shed with Ouyang Zhonghui, the two of them came to Master Linhui's residence, and just about to push the door, they heard Master Linhui say, "Please come in." The two walked into Lin Hui's room, and it happened that the Kunlun monk was also there. Seeing Xiaolin and Ouyang Zhonghui, Lin Hui said, "Is there something wrong?" Ouyang Zhonghui said: "There is one thing I want to hear everyone's opinions. After speaking, he took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to everyone to watch, Lin Hui and Kunlun Monk had read it, Xiao Lin also read it, and no one present spoke. Lin Hui said: "This matter is very important, I think we still have to meet with the person who delivered the book, and specifically understand the intention of the handsome Wang Daolin." ”

Ouyang Zhonghui said: "That's really right, I have this intention. After saying this, he asked someone to bring the messenger here, and in a short time, Wang Gan brought the messenger here. Ouyang Zhonghui asked someone to remove the black cloth covering his head, this person rubbed his eyes, Xiao Lin said: "What is your name? Do you have any position under the Great Shuai Wang Daolin?" The man said: "My name is Xiao Daocheng, and I am a staff general under the Great Shuai. Xiao Lin said, "Did the marshal tell you to send me a letter?" Then Xiao Lin asked: "Why did he call you, a stranger, to deliver the letter? Why don't you send an acquaintance?" Xiao Daocheng said: "Dashuai said, I look like a Qiang person, and I grew up in the Qiang area, and I am familiar with this place, but I moved from here to the Central Plains five years ago. Since then, he has participated in the team led by the marshal. Xiao Lin listened and did not speak. Ouyang Zhonghui said: "The road mentioned in the letter is the road that the marshal designated for us to take?" Xiao Daocheng said: "The marshal said that only by following this road can we send people to pick us up, and it is also the safest road." Everyone listened, but no one spoke. Kunlun monk was about to speak, Ouyang Zhonghui stopped him with his eyes, and Kunlun monk had no choice but to give up when he saw this.

Immediately, he exchanged opinions with Xiao Lin and Lin Hui, and seeing that neither of them had an opinion, Ouyang Zhonghui said: "You go to the kitchen to eat first, and then hurry up and rest when you turn back." Tomorrow morning, we will rush back a little earlier, and tell the marshal, and we will follow the marshal's intentions and take this road. After speaking, he took out twenty taels of silver as his travel expenses, and Xiao Daocheng took the silver and thanked him. Ou Youyang Zhonghui waved his hand, and then said: "This matter must be kept secret, remember not to leak it to the outside world, otherwise the whole army will be wiped out." Remember to tell Dashuai our consent quickly, rest for the night after dinner, and leave before dawn tomorrow morning. Xiao Daocheng said: "I remember." When he came, the marshal told me that he wanted me to deliver the letter and return quickly, for the emperor was anxious for news here. After saying that, Wang Gan took him down.

After the man left, the Kunlun monk couldn't sit still, he got up and walked back and forth in the room, looking very anxious in his heart. Ouyang Zhonghui said: "Senior brother, if you have anything to say, just say it. Kunlun monk said: "According to the letter, he wants us to arrive at the morning flag town the day after tomorrow at the latest, the morning flag town is the important town here, I think you haven't waited for us to arrive, the Qin Emperor will send an army." Then I am afraid that we will be in danger of destruction. Ouyang Zhonghui said: "I think no matter what, we will take him down in Qizhen this morning, otherwise we will only sleep in the wilderness, we adults are better, children are in such cold weather, what if they don't get sick?" Hearing Ouyang Zhonghui's words, Kunlun Monk couldn't sit still anymore, he stood up and said: "Besides, the roads they have chosen are all uneven hilly areas, and it is very dangerous to walk on such a big snowy field." As soon as his words fell, everyone couldn't help but shudder, yes, three consecutive days of snowstorms, everywhere was white, after a strong wind, it was impossible to distinguish where there was a flat land and where was a ravine, so it was very dangerous for people to walk such a road.

Ouyang Zhonghui said: "What Senior Brother said is extremely true. As for our itinerary, we will discuss it when we set off. After speaking, suddenly Ouyang Zhonghui made a gesture, and everyone lowered their voices. After discussing for a long time, a few people dispersed. The next morning, Xiao Daocheng said goodbye to Xiao Lin, and Xiao Lin told him that his whereabouts must be kept secret and remembered. Then Xiao Daocheng got up and rushed back. Today is the day of the burial of the two victims, the owner of the village Wang Baoyi specially invited suona hands from nearby, in a burst of blowing and blowing, in the eyes of everyone's tears, the two coffins were slowly put into the tomb, Xiaolin and Xiaocui two people cried into tears. Everyone persuaded each other for a while, and the two stopped their grief. After this matter is busy, it is already late afternoon.

At this time, on the vast snow, Xiao Daocheng was struggling to move forward, and the snow was already above his knees. Walking on such heavy snow can be imagined. At this moment, he heard a whistle in front of him, and his spirits were lifted, and he let out a long breath from his mouth, and then whispered, "Zhongyu has arrived." Suddenly, two people appeared in front of him, and these two men came to him, and one of them looked behind him for a long time, and then turned around and said, "It's okay." There is no one behind. I saw Xiao Daocheng raise his hand, and a letter flew into the hands of another person. The two people turned around and walked away, but Xiao Daocheng walked forward again, and at this time, the howling north wind blew harder, and the rolled up white snow hit the people's faces, which was cold and a little painful. Under a big tree, Wang Gan rubbed her eyes, looked at it carefully for a while, bent down and grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it in her mouth, and then rubbed it on her face. He strode forward.

Just when he walked out for less than three miles, two people suddenly jumped down from the tree, and they blocked Wang Gan's way one left and one right. Wang Gan looked at these two people, although he was nervous, but he said: "Friend, why are you blocking my way? It doesn't seem righteous to do this, right?" The person in front looked at Wang Gan and sneered. The laughter frightened the king's hairs on end, but in the evening, if it was night, it would have scared him to death. Wang Gan took out a small piece of knife one foot and two inches long, he practiced the knife on the snow first, these two people stood at a distance of six or seven meters from him, and neither of them spoke, just looked at Wang Ganlian. When he finished practicing, one of them said, "Why don't you practice, I still want to see how you practice?" Wang Gan said: "Let me tell you, I'm just warming up, and I still have a trick that I haven't taken out." ”

The two men were like monkeys, clasping their hands in front of their chests and pouting their mouths. I saw Wang Gan pull off the posture again, he put the knife in his right hand, and then turned around and said: "Goodbye", after saying that, he ran to the side, as soon as these two people saw Wang Gan want to run, they chased after him, and one of them shouted: "Stop, don't run forward." Wang Gan ran away, and his mouth said: "Let me stop, isn't this nonsense, I will die if I stand still." "It is said that Wang Gan's light skills are good, but compared with whom, if compared with these two people, it is too bad, although the snow is up to the knees, these two people walk on the snow like flying, just catch up with Wang Gan in a few breaths. Wang Gan looked back, he was so frightened that he almost peed his pants, the person behind him was only three or four meters away from him, Wang Gan shouted loudly while running: "Hu Da, don't hide behind the tree." I'm going to finish playing", he shouted, the two people were stunned, why, Hu Da is also here? They hurriedly hid behind a tree, carefully checked everything around, and saw that the surroundings were quiet, only in the howling wind, Wang Gan ran forward desperately.

These two people looked at it for a while, and immediately understood what was going on, these two people jumped up suddenly, and quickly chased after them, and one of them scolded: "Good boy, dare to play Lao Tzu, I have to pick your skin if I catch you." Seeing that the distance between the two of them and Wang Gan was getting closer and closer.
