The other end of the bamboo forest.

Qi Xin looked at the giant bamboos all over the ground, and said in a speechless manner: "Xiao Zhang Cang, what should we do now?"

Zhang Cang picked up a firewood knife from the tools on the ground and slashed it the giant bamboo on the ground, only to hear a muffled "bang", leaving only a white mark on the bamboo.

Zhang Cang shook his head and said: "Brother Qi Yu, they should have something to do and left, the three of us can't cut these bamboos, so let's wait for them to come and let them do it themselves." ”

Lan Gongyuan approached, looked at the scattered tools on the ground, and said crisply: "Brother Yu, they seem to have encountered an urgent matter and left in a hurry, otherwise they would not have thrown firewood knives and saws all over the ground." After that, he looked a little worried.

Qi Xin scratched his head and asked again: "Xiao Zhang Cang, do you think we are here now waiting for the young master and them to come back, or are we going to find them?" After speaking, Qi Xin seemed to think of something, a trace of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he thought: "Is there an emergency?

Qi Xin looked at the surrounding large areas of forest giant bamboo, and then looked at the depths of the bamboo forest, under the shroud of the tall giant bamboo, the dimly lit bamboo sea seemed to be deep and unfathomable, and even the sound of the wind blowing the bamboo leaves was like the impermanence of the ghost crying wolf.

Qi Xin hurriedly shrunk his neck, shivered in place, and didn't dare to move.

Zhang Cang glanced at the gentle and lovely Lan Gongyuan obsessively, and when he saw the worried look on Lan Gongyuan's face, his heart moved, he clenched the firewood knife in his hand, made a heroic appearance, patted his chest, and said with a smile: "Leave this matter to me, Brother Xiaoxin, you and Sister Yuanyuan are waiting for me here, I'll go find them!"

Lan Gongyuan said without thinking: "I want to go with you to find Brother Yu!" With a pair of big watery eyes, he looked at Zhang Cang with great determination.

Zhang Cang was defeated in an instant, and said helplessly: "Okay then--" Zhang Cang's eyes rolled, and he smiled again: "But Sister Yuanyuan wants to go hand in hand with me, and I will protect you!"

Lan Gongyuan didn't realize Zhang Cang's despicable intentions at all, and smiled sweetly: "Okay, thank you, brother Zhang Cang." ”

Qi Xin bit his lip, struggled with his expression, moved to the pile of bamboo step by step, sat on it, and said, "That...... I'll be waiting for you here...... I'll help you look at the bamboo, the horses, and the carts. ”

"Cut, coward. Zhang Cang took a sip secretly, turned his head disdainfully and grabbed Lan Gongyuan's soft little hand, clenched the firewood knife in his hand, and the two walked towards the depths of the bamboo forest.

...

...

After a stick of incense, somewhere in the bamboo forest.

More than twenty black-clothed men in black scarves and masked men rushed quietly and quickly through the forest, and the black-clothed men in the lead suddenly made a gesture, and all the black-clothed people immediately stopped in unison and waited for them.

It turned out that another man in black appeared in front of him.

One of the more than twenty men in black walked out, and it was the man in black who was the leader, only to hear him ask in a low voice, "How is the situation?"

The oncoming man in black also lowered his voice and said hoarsely: "Everyone is by the Shen Pond, the third child of the Duan family is also there, Zhongsun Xuanhua, Qi Yu, Ma Chengjia and Min Jianzhang are together with the third child of the Duan family, and there is also Shanqin's daughter, Xie Zhengqing's son, Zou Yan's eldest disciple, and a family of four foreigners, do we still want to start?"

The leading man in black pondered for a while, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said in a low voice: "The third child of the Duan family rarely goes out of the city, the opportunity is rare, this time you must hit it with one hit, and retreat immediately as soon as the target dies, Qi Yu is also on the leader's list, and he can't let go of the opportunity, as for the others...... If an accident happens, those who resist will be killed!"

"Yes. All the men in black lowered their voices in unison.

Not far from the man in black, behind a thick bush of long grass.

Zhang Cang covered Lan Gongyuan's mouth in a cold sweat, and the two sat on the ground, lowered their bodies, hid their bodies under the long grass, held their breath, didn't dare to move, and didn't dare to breathe.

It wasn't until all the men in black had left that the two of them relaxed, taking a big breath of air, horror and worry in their eyes.

Lan Gongyuan stood up anxiously: "Brother Yu doesn't know that he is in danger yet, I will go to him immediately, he must leave here as soon as possible!"

Zhang Cang grabbed Lan Gongyuan's little hand, and on her immature face, her delicate eyebrows were already wrinkled, and her face was unprecedentedly solemn: "Sister Yuanyuan, don't be impulsive first, even if we have to inform Brother Qi Yu now, it's too late...... I have a solution!"

...

...

Shen Pond side.

"Qi Yu, could it be that the little brother is the third son of the Qi family who proposed the Tuntian system?" Meng Fu looked at Lu Yunzhou with emotion and said in surprise.

This time it was Lu Yunzhou's turn to be surprised: "General Meng has heard my name?"

"It's really you!" Meng Fu suddenly stood in awe, bowed his hand, and said: "Qi Gongzi doesn't know, last year was the year of hunger, the population of the entire Qi country was three-tenths gone, the people were everywhere, the starving people were sleeping next to each other, and the corpses were all over the field, and there were countless ones. Although the ruler of Qi borrowed grain from Lu State, these grains were withheld by corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and when they reached the hands of the people, there was no one in ten. The impact of the New Year's hunger has not been eliminated until now, the homeless people are wandering around, burning, killing and looting, disturbing the township, the people have no food in their homes, and they can't even open the pot for the New Year, but the nobles are big fish and meat every day. At this time, the tuntian system proposed by Qi Gongzi can be described as a blessing for the people of the whole country, and from then on, most of the grain that the people worked hard to cultivate no longer had to be handed over to the army, and the displaced people could also be resettled. At present, the name of the prince has already spread throughout the entire Qi country, and now all the soldiers and civilians of the Qi country are praising the good name of the prince!"

Lu Yunzhou was shocked, it turned out that there was such a thing, but since he proposed the Tuntian system, it has only been a few days now, how can it spread so quickly throughout the entire Qi country?

Someone must be deliberately spreading the news!

"Could it be my father?" Lu Yunzhou wondered in his heart.

It is indeed possible for Qi Min to help him preach in order to increase his and the Qi family's prestige in the Qi State and seek a higher political status.

But--

Lu Yunzhou looked at Meng Wei suspiciously, and asked, "Why does General Meng know so much about the Qi State, as far as I know, shouldn't General Meng be in the Qin State?"

Not far away, Xie Ziyuan glanced at Lu Yunzhou with a complicated gaze, and he heard all the words just now.

"Do you want to discuss this matter with the second prince?" Xie Ziyuan struggled in his heart.

Meng Fu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "No wonder Qi Gongzi seems to have heard Meng's name, it turned out that he recognized the wrong person, Meng's family has been a native of Qi since the beginning of their ancestors, and they are from Qiyang, the capital of Chengyang in Qi State, and they serve as a small guard in Juancheng, but they are not from Qin! But after hearing the news that Gongzi proposed the tuntian system, he dispelled this idea. ”

Lu Yunzhou was stunned, it turned out that the Meng family was originally from Qi State, and he couldn't help but feel a deep sadness in his heart, why did the talents born in Qi always not be retained?

Lu Yunzhou struggled in his heart, did he conform to history, or did he help Qi Guo leave Meng Fu behind?

Lu Yunzhou couldn't help but glance at Meng Tian again, and it was difficult to make a decision in his heart.

If Meng Tian stays in Qi with Meng Fei, will he still be able to shine with the glory of his famous generals?

Seeing that Lu Yunzhou was stunned, Meng Fu gritted his teeth, bowed down and said: "Meng Mou dragged his family to Linzi this time, and it was after hearing the good name of Gongzi that he came to ask to see Gongzi, hoping that Gongzi could introduce Meng to General Qi Fang!"

Lu Yunzhou was stunned, looked at Meng Fu with a resolute face, and slowly made up his mind in his heart, and helped Meng Fu up.

"General Meng, please get up, I promise you!"

Now that you have come to this world, this era, how can you be timid, how can you not fight to see!

Now that I'm here, I'm going to make a difference!

...

...

In the bamboo forest.

More than twenty black-clothed people scattered and lurked, each holding a sharp blade, and one black-clothed man held a crossbow machine in his hand, lying in the long grass, and aimed his arrow at Duan Heng by the Shen Pond.

The arrows glowed a faint blue light, apparently quenched with poison.

By the side of Shen Chi, Shanrou was chasing Ma Chengjia, Min Jianzhang was helping Ma Chengjia to cover, Zhongsun Xuanhua was on the side for fear that the world would not be chaotic, Xie Ziyuan looked at Shanrou obsessively, Shi Wenqi watched helplessly from the side, and the lively little fat man Duan Heng happily joined the ranks of the fight.

The figures on the side of Shen Chi were divided and merged, Duan Heng's figure was sometimes blocked, and sometimes appeared in the field of vision, and the black-clothed man with the crossbow machine patiently looked for an opportunity, waiting for the best time to make a move, before releasing the dark blue cold arrow......

Meng Fu was being helped up by Lu Yunzhou, facing the direction of the bamboo forest, a ray of blue light suddenly caught in the corner of his eye, frowned, and changed color: "Something is wrong!"

As soon as the words fell, a powerful arrow shot out from the darkness of the bamboo forest, the arrow pierced the air, and made a sharp whistling sound, and suddenly it arrived in front of the little fat man Duan Heng, and the blue arrow was facing Duan Heng's throat.

The little fat man Duan Heng didn't notice this blue light until this moment, and he couldn't help but be stunned, before he could react, the blue light was about to touch his skin!

"Thief dares!"

Meng Fu shouted angrily, and before he could think about it, he quickly took out an object from his arms and threw it away, stopping the cold arrow before it was about to pierce Duan Heng's throat, knocking the arrow a few inches away.

"Ding!"

The crisp sound of metal collision sounded, and the blue cold arrow flew past the edge of the little fat man Duan Heng's neck, and was nailed to the grass on the shore of the lake with a "buzz"!

And the object that Meng Fu threw also lost its strength and fell on the grass--

It turned out to be a Qi country sword coin!

All this happened between the rise and fall of the rabbits, and by the time everyone reacted, a group of black-clothed dead soldiers with sharp blades had rushed out of the bamboo forest.

A trace of cold sweat slipped from Duan Heng's forehead, and Duan Heng stiffly stretched out his left hand and wiped a handful of skin on his neck--
