Back Mountain.

Qin Hu looked around, and there was billowing gunsmoke.

A sentry came to report: "The owner of the village, the officers and soldiers set fire to the forest, and they can't get out of the way down the mountain!"

"Probe!"

As soon as the front foot of the outpost left, the sound of shouting and killing suddenly rose at the bottom of the mountain, and from time to time there was the sound of firecrackers and cannonballs, which rumbled and shook the sky.

When I was young, I saw a sentry post and reported quickly: "The owner of the village, the officers and soldiers have entered the village." ”

Everyone looked horrified, and Qin Hulian asked, "Who is leading the troops, and what do you want to do?"

The person who came said: "Back to the owner of the village, the person who led the troops was Fusi Qianhu Fengtu Town, Beizhen, and he threatened to take the main bus out of Qin to commit Wang Lie!"

"What, Qin prisoner?" all the Zhuang guests looked at each other, and Qin Hu's heart was cold.

Hearing this, Divine Doctor Liu asked in surprise: "Master Qin, this friend of yours looks still dignified, but how can he be a prisoner......?" Even the brocade guards of the imperial court have been dispatched, you must know that it is a big crime to destroy the family if you secretly hide the Qin criminals!"

"Zhuang master, what should I do now?" the Zhuang guest on the side asked Qin Hu.

Doctor Liu hurriedly said: "Oh, what else can I do, Master Qin, you are the big leader in the villa, we have to hand him over to the government quickly, don't be kind, offend the government, when the time comes, the lives of the brothers will be ...... Wow, he's out!"

Wang Lie walked out of the cave, and Divine Doctor Liu, who was talking to himself, was suddenly stunned, screamed, and hurriedly hid behind Qin Hu like a plague god.

"Meng Qiu, I caused everyone a burden, I shouldn't have come. Wang Lie apologized.

"Haicheng, in the past, you were kind to Qin Mou, but today there is a difficulty, and Qin Mou must not stand idly by!"

At this time, another sentry rode up the mountain to report.

"Zhuang Master! The officers and soldiers attacked fiercely, the brothers couldn't resist, and there were many casualties, Qin Zhang and Qin Gang, the two leaders...... Already dead!"

When Qin Ye heard this, he hurriedly asked the sentry: "What did you say, you said they ......?"

The sentry bowed his head and said, "Already dead." ”

Qin Ye turned around and persuaded: "Zhuang Master, I'm afraid that the general trend has gone now, and the officers and soldiers will soon find here, so we will escort the Zhuang Master and Engong to the secret road behind the mountain and break through from Danqing Valley!" Qin Ye just said this, only to see that there were more than a dozen Zhuang Ding panting on the mountain road below, and they were running up, shouting to the mountain: "The officers and soldiers are coming up!

Qin Hu turned to Wang Lie and said, "Engong, go quickly, without further ado!"

"Meng Qiu, this matter started because of me, you take people to go first, and I will go down to stop them......" Wang Lie said this, and he was about to go down the mountain.

Suddenly, I heard a scream—

Thundered!

Everyone felt that the sky was shaking, and out of nowhere, a shell hit the rocks on the mountain road, and the fragmented shrapnel flew in all directions, killing three Zhuang Ding on the spot, and tons of snow on the mountain also shook off the landslide, and pushed a group of Zhuang Ding down the mountain road, and the desperate screams resounded through the deep stream.

"Eun Gong, danger!"

Qin Hu screamed in the back, Wang Lie retreated several steps in a row, and was almost hit by the falling snow, if he walked three or five more steps, he was afraid that he would be washed down by the snow like those people and fall down the mountain, and he couldn't help but have palpitations.

At this moment, he saw another sentry riding up the mountain, he was covered in blood and seriously injured, Qin Ye hurriedly stepped forward to help him get off the horse, and asked, "Brother, what is the situation down the mountain?" Just as he said this, there was another shock under everyone's feet, and the sound of cannons sounded again. The sentry was already overwhelmed, fell into the snow, and said to the ground: "Master, the brothers under the mountain...... All of them died in battle......" After finishing his words, he left in a rage.

At this time, only the rumbling sound was heard at the foot of the mountain, and the artillery bombardment of the officers and men became more and more intensive; it turned out that the officers and men were also worried about the hidden ambush on the mountain, so they moved more than 10 tiger squat guns, set up the village, and bombed them indiscriminately in the back mountain.

Qin Hu hurriedly said to Wang Lie: "Engong, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, Fengtu Town is a master of the Great Interior, and there are many officers and soldiers, you will only lose your life if you go!"

Qin Ye stepped forward and said, "Engong, please!"

At this time, Qin Yi also changed into clean clothes, and was walking out of the cave, only to hear the rumbling of cannons outside the mountain, and couldn't help but ask: "Why is it thundering in winter?" A villager hurriedly grabbed Qin Yi's arm and said: "Young Zhuang master, get on the horse quickly, I will escort you away!"

So everyone got on their horses, and more than ten horses ran to the back mountain path. Qin Hu glanced back at the bottom of the mountain, only to see the thick smoke billowing out, obscuring the clouds and the sun, and the manor that he had been operating with his brothers for many years was destroyed, and he was embarrassed in his heart.

......

Danqing Valley.

Shen Lian led the team, behind him were thirty brocade guards with firearms, the snow on the ground was almost knee-high, and the two hounds struggled to shave the snow forward.

In front of the team, a snow fog was confused, ten steps away, almost indecipherable.

Maybe the wind and snow are too big, the road is too difficult to walk, and the formation has long been chaotic. Kong Xiong, the short lieutenant who led the hound, complained to the people around him while walking: "Alas, this kind of errand without oil and water, Lord Feng insists on taking it, and he runs all the way from Beijing to this icy and snowy ghost place, but it can be a pit for our brothers." (Note: The captain is the lowest rank of the Jinyi Guard, no official and no character, and he is a pawn.) ）

Xu Dabiao, another fat-faced lieutenant beside him, heard this, and also shook his head and said: "Yes, think about how comfortable it is when you are in the capital, you eat and drink wine and meat every day, and sing every night. "He, like Captain Nakong, also has a hound in his hand.

"Brother Kong and Xu, you don't understand this. A tall lieutenant, Qi Fu, came up and interrupted them.

"Well, what do you think Brother Qi has?"

The tall lieutenant replied: "Hehe, if you want to be in the capital, everyone is idle, if you want to be promoted, you have to worship Yan Xiangguo as your father-in-law, that Lord Feng is from a martial arts background, and he has always been upright, not at all the material for sloppy horses, and there is Commander Lu as his top boss, when will he be able to get out?"

"Well, my brother listens to this, but he also makes sense!" said the short Lieutenant Kong.

"Hehe, but when it comes to the word 'Geng Zhi', who can compare to the Shen Zongqi in front of us!" said the fat-faced Captain Xu.

"Hahaha-yes, yes!" The short Captain Kong also teased: "He dares to pour Yan Shifan's wine from the Ministry of Industry, Lord Shen is upright, there is no second person in the world!"

"Haha, absolutely not!" Captain Qi smiled, and everyone around him also laughed.

"Have you said enough?" Shen Lian stopped and looked back at them.

Kong, Xu, Qi and other laughing Jinyi guards relented at this time.

"Hehe, Lord Banner, we just have a lot of respect for you, and we have absolutely nothing else to say!" the fat-faced lieutenant sneered behind him.

"Hurry up! Don't wait for it to get dark and let go of the Qin criminal, none of you can afford to be guilty!"

"Yes!"

Whoa, whoa—

At this moment, the two hounds barked in unison, and the fat-faced lieutenant tightly held the leash.

"Why can't my ingots be called, there must be someone in front of this!"

Shen Lian held down the embroidered spring knife, alert and fed around.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves arose, and a team of men and horses broke through the snow mist and stepped on the snow from a short distance from the oblique side.

"It's a thief! fire, fire—" Shen Lian ordered.

Behind him, the lieutenants raised their firearms and fired at the men and horses galloping in the snow and fog in front of them.

Bang bang –

The smoke rose, and the two horses neighed and rolled into the snow, and the rest of the horses rode away......

Shen Lian saw that someone had been hit and fell off his horse, so he hurriedly rushed forward.

The brocade guards followed behind and shouted: "Shen Zongqi, be careful!"

The two fell off their horses and got up from the snow, one was caught by Shen Lian, raised his foot and knelt on the ground, and the other person was pulling out his knife and rushing forward, Shen Lian's hand flashed with cold light, but the embroidered spring knife was on his neck first, and he shouted and asked, "Where is Wang Lie?"

"If you want to kill, you will kill, I don't know!" said the man.

The fat-faced lieutenant arrived with the hounds and shouted: "Do you still dare to be hard-mouthed? If you don't recruit from the truth, first ask my ingots to bite off the flesh on your body piece by piece!"

The high lieutenant said: "Heh, what is it to let the dog bite people, you have to let them taste all the punishments of our Jinyi Guard, so that they can be happy!"

Zhuang Ding, who was kneeling on the ground, saw that this formation was not so tough, and immediately surrendered and mourned: "Don't kill me, I say, I say!"

......

The book is divided into two ends, and it is said that the people and horses that galloped past were Wang Lie, Qin Hu, Qin Ye, Qin Yi, Liu Shenyi and other people, they went straight through the Danqing Valley, galloped through the snowfield, and galloped out for more than 30 miles in a row.

Wang Lie said: "Meng Qiu, what is the place ahead?"

Qin Hu replied: "The front has arrived at Baishiyuan. ”

Wang Lie stopped his horse, and Qin Hu and the other horsemen also stopped.

"Engong, let's go! The officers and soldiers are about to catch up!" Qin Hu urged.

Wang Lie looked back at the way he came and said, "At this time, even if the officers and soldiers catch up, they are like the end of a strong crossbow, what am I afraid of? But Meng Qiu, in order to protect me thoroughly, you have lost so many brothers today, and it is I, Wang Lie, who is sorry for them!" Wang Lie solemnly shook Qin Hu and said, "In the future, Wang Lie will not dare to be the word Engong to you Meng Qiu!"

Qin Hu waved his hand and said, "Haicheng doesn't have to mind, this is God's will!"

Wang Lie asked: "Meng Qiu, your Zhuangzi has been destroyed by officers and soldiers, what else will you go in the future?"

Qin Hu replied: "Qin Mou bought a different business in Linyou's hometown, and placed all the female dependents in the family there, if Haicheng has nothing else, go with me." ”

Wang Lie said: "This is absolutely inappropriate, since we have escaped from under the noses of the officers and soldiers, if we go all the way again, we will definitely attract people's eyes and ears." Moreover, Linyou County is east of this, and Wang Lie wants to continue westward. Wang Lie arched his hand and said, "Send you a thousand miles, you must say goodbye in the end, Meng Qiu, I think we will part ways here." ”

"This ......"

"Lord Qin—"

Qin Hu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and was about to say something to stay, but he didn't know that Doctor Liu next to him caught up, and interjected at an inopportune time, saying: "Master Qin, you are old and talented, thank you for your kindness for many years, but now that you are old and healthy, you can't continue to work with the owner, so you also want to return home." ”

Qin Hu said: "The old gentleman is also leaving, why don't you go to Linyou with me?"

Doctor Liu said: "The old man's house is in Pingliang, and he arrived at the Baishichuan River in front of him, and now he has not returned for many years, and he is homesick, and he hopes that the owner of the village will allow it." ”

Wang Lie said with a smile: "Haha, this is the way, Senior Liu, I just have to pass through Pingliang in the next place, it is better for you and me to go together, there is a good response on the road." ”

When Doctor Liu heard this, he thought to himself, you Wang Lie is a criminal of the imperial court, and I can't hide yet, how can I go with you? But in the face of the owner of Qinzhuang, he didn't say much, nodded and agreed: "It's okay." ”

Qin Hu pondered what Wang Lie said on the side, and it was not unreasonable, so he had to say: "Okay, I really can't imagine that as soon as you and my brother met, we haven't drunk two sips of wine, so we have to separate again." Alas-" Qin Hu sighed, and asked Wang Lie again: "But Haicheng, what are you going to Kunlun and going to the country?"

Wang Lie raised his head and looked northwest, and said, "For the sake of ...... An artifact. ”

Qin Hu asked, "What's the matter?"

Wang Lie pondered for a long time, and finally said, "Hmm...... This matter is a long story, it is not clear for a while, when my matter is completed, I will have to return to Guanzhong, if it is convenient, I will go to Linyou to meet my brother again......" Qin Hu said: "Okay!" But as soon as Wang Lie said this, he suddenly felt that it was inappropriate, so he said: "Meng Qiu, if the government comes to embarrass you in the future, and Guanzhong cannot gain a foothold, you can take your brothers to the sea with me, the sky is high and the sea is wide, Wang Lie's fleet will definitely leave you a place." ”

Qin Hu nodded, clasped his fists and said, "Okay, with the words of Engong, Meng Qiu has thanked him a lot." ”

"How dare Wang Lie!" Wang Lie clenched his fists and saluted back.

"What Haicheng wants to do, it must be a big thing, and Meng Qiu will not keep you!" Qin Hu said, throwing Wang Lie a wine bag and saying, "Come, let's two brothers have a parting drink!"

Wang Lie raised his head and took a sip, then threw the wine bag back.

Wang Xian...... Uncle Shi, are you leaving?" Qin Yice asked.

"What, the virtuous nephew still wants to keep it?"

How do you know that Qin Yi turned off the horse, knelt down and said: "The little nephew is possessed by evil and adultery, and it has gradually become a habit for a long time, and now he is guided and persuaded by Uncle Shi, and he has been taught a lot, if he is free, please stay in the Linyou Humble House, so that the little nephew can be regarded as the teacher and listen to the teachings day and night!"

Wang Lie turned over and dismounted, "Get up!" Helped Qin Yi up and said, "Wang Lie is just afraid that it will be inconvenient to come often." ”

Qin Yi asked, "Why is Uncle Shi? Are those officers and soldiers? Why do they want to embarrass Uncle Shi?"

Wang Lie said: "It's hard to say anything about this matter, if we can meet next time, I'll talk about it in detail, as for what I said in the Houshan Cave Mansion, have you written down all the nephews?"

Qin Yi said: "Uncle Shi's admonition, the little nephew is all in mind!"

"Well, in the world of life, you must live frankly and unashamedly, and stop swaying for the soft posture and charm of the world, otherwise, destroy the strong body, the dim and clear mind, and even the illness is riddled with death, how can you talk about studying, practicing martial arts, governing the country, and Qi family?

"Yes, yes!

"There is a Mr. Wang Shouren in the national dynasty, who talks most about the unity of knowledge and action, you first read his "Biography" a few more times, and then see you next time, Uncle Shi will study you. ”

"Yes, little nephew obeys!"

Wang Lie took two steps back and gave Qin Hu another look at the horse he was riding.

"The green mountains are always there, the green water flows forever, Meng Qiu cherishes, you and I will say goodbye!"

"Haicheng, look at yourself!" Qin Hu said.

Wang Lie turned over and got on his horse and said to Doctor Liu beside him: "Mr. Liu, then let's set off and go north to Pingliang!"

"Oh...... Oh good, then Master Qin, the old man is leaving, you take care, and we will meet again in the future!" Doctor Liu rode on the horse and said goodbye to Qin Hu, and Qin Hu replied: "Okay, Mr. Liu, go all the way!"

The second rode to the northwest.

Qin Hu, Qin Yi, and Qin Ye did not leave for a long time, looking at the vast snowfield in the northwest, until Wang Lie and Divine Doctor Liu disappeared into the snowstorm in the north......
