Chapter 6: The Hunt
Fu Rong saw that the two of them were like this, if he pretended to be like this, I am afraid that he would be exposed. Then he said: "Since this is the case, then the teacher will accept you two as apprentices." However, in the future, I will never use such despicable means as lime to harm others, so as not to damage my reputation. ”
Lingyun and Qifeng looked at each other and smiled, bowed to Fu Rong eight times, and respectfully called 'Master'.
After the apprenticeship was over, Ling Yun hurriedly got up from the ground and said, "Master, this Pingding is now the territory of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and your old man is dressed ...... this costume."
"Why, do you feel embarrassed to worship under the former Qin general?" Fu Rong heard him mention his armor, and couldn't help but think of the defeat of the first Qin to the Eastern Jin Dynasty. I don't know what is going on in the court now, and a nameless fire was sent to Ling Yun.
Ling Yun listened to him scolding, fell to his knees again, and said, "Don't dare." Master's martial arts are profound, how can the two of us feel ashamed. It's just that the master is injured now, and if he meets the Eastern Jin Dynasty army, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out. ”
What he said was sincere and reasonable. Fu Rong also scolded him so much because of his momentary anger, and said, "Well, I blamed you for the teacher's mistake, or you should think about it more thoughtfully." ”
At that moment, Ling Yun cleaned the clothes of the person lying on the ground and helped Fu Rong change them. After removing the armor, Fu Rong suddenly felt much more relaxed. With a slight smile, he explained some introductory exercises to the two of them.
While the three of them were talking and laughing to themselves, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside the temple gate. The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and it seemed to be coming towards the broken temple. Qi Feng got up and took two steps, trying to look out of the door, but he was so frightened that he trembled and couldn't speak.
Seeing his frightened expression, Ling Yun leaned over to him and looked out. I saw a team coming from outside the five miles, led by two people, who were rushing towards this side. Because they were too far away, they couldn't see the faces of those people clearly, but the Jin flag waving in the wind was particularly eye-catching. Without the slightest hesitation, Ling Yun pulled Qi Feng back a few steps and closed the temple door.
Turning around, he saw Fu Rongzheng looking at himself suspiciously, and said, "It's Jin Jun, presumably I'm here to arrest Master!"
In the battle of Weishui that day, Fu Rong personally led the army first. When he arrived at the ferry, Xie Xuan, the general of the Jin army, asked to cross the river for a battle, hoping that he would retreat half a mile so that the Jin army could cross the river. Fu Rong received the imperial order of the former Qin Emperor Fu Jian, so that the Jin army defeated the Jin army in one fell swoop when it was halfway through. He expected that he would lead an army of 150,000, so why not be afraid of the Jin army of 70,000. agreed to Xie Xuan's request and retreated, but he didn't expect that his retreat would cause a big disaster.
When he retreated, someone in the rear army shouted that the Qin army was defeated. There were hundreds of thousands of people in the former Qin army, and the distance between the end and the end was dozens of miles, so the situation of the rear army and the front army was naturally not real. But the army was indeed retreating, and there was so much to think about, and they threw away their armor and fled for their lives in a panic.
The person who bewitched the defeat of the former Qin was Zhu Xu, the general of Xiangyang, who took advantage of the collapse of the army and led his cronies to block the retreat of the former Qin vanguard. It was Fu Rongcai who suffered the enemy on his back, and was finally surrounded by everyone. Fortunately, his subordinates fought to the death, although he suffered many wounds on his body, and was finally pressed low by the corpses of his subordinates, and he was rescued by Lingyun and Qifeng, so he escaped from death.
However, in the battle of Weishui, he was not reconciled to lose. If it weren't for Xie Xuan's trickery, how could the 70,000 horses in the Eastern Jin Dynasty be able to defeat the millions of people in the former Qin. Hearing Ling Yun say that the Jin army had arrived, the depression in his heart had long been calm. shouted, and was about to rush out of the temple gate to compete with these people in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Seeing this, Ling Yun was really taken aback. It was also thanks to his quick eyes that he didn't let Fu Rong break out. He persuaded hard: "There are many of them, we are not their opponents." It's better to leave here first, gather all the military horses, and then duel with the Eastern Jin Dynasty. ”
Fu Rong was not a person who was easily irritable, but as the pioneer of the former Qin, he personally led an army of 150,000, but he was defeated by the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which was only 70,000. Such ugly things must have spread all over the world, if people knew that they were Fu Rong, wouldn't it make people laugh off their front teeth.
Seeing Ling Yun pulling himself, he couldn't help but admonish himself. Looking around again, except for Xu Fatzi and others lying on the ground, the only ones who obeyed him were Ling Yun and Qi Feng. After being woken up by Ling Yun's words, I thought, what he said was good, I have injuries on my body, but the two of them don't know martial arts, and if they collide with the Eastern Jin Dynasty army, there is only one way to die. You should first find a way to survive, wait for yourself to return to Chang'an, and then fight to the death with these people in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. After calming down, he asked, "How are we doing now?"
It's not that he doesn't have opinions, it's just that he is not familiar with the terrain here, let alone fleeing for his life, even if he finds a way out of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
The three of them were in a stalemate for a while, and the sound of the horse's hooves became closer and closer. Ling Yun suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "There is a way, but I have to wronged the master." ”
Fu Rong heard that he had a way to find it, and his spirit was lifted. But seeing the evil smile on his face, I knew that it was not a good idea. But at this time, the situation is in crisis, and life is still at stake. didn't care about that much, nodded slightly, and went to the back door with Ling Yun and Qifeng.
However, after a cup of tea, I could hear the neighing of horses and the intermittent sound of hooves outside the temple, presumably those people had arrived outside the temple.
I heard one person say, "This is what you said?" The man's voice was thick and slightly suspicious.
Another replied, "This is the place where the man is very good." Even our eldest brother's kung fu was repelled by his wounds. The general must be careful not to get into his way. This voice is exactly what one of Xu Fatzi's subordinates said.
The man from before snorted and said, "It's just a bit of waste, and even an injured person can't help it." You go up and see if they're still inside. ”
The man under Xu Fatzi had suffered a loss before, so where did he dare to enter the temple. He just stood there and did not move.
When the man who had spoken before saw him like this, he was so angry that he said, "Are you going or not?" Although he heard the man say that he had seen the former Qin general, Xu Fatzi and the others did not catch the man, how could he believe that man so recklessly and let his men go to explore the way?
The man under Xu Fatzi saw him draw his sword, and saw that the soldiers behind him were looking at him with fierce eyes. knew that if he didn't go, he immediately let these people hack to death. I had to bite the bullet and come to the temple door step by step.
When I arrived at the temple, I saw many people lying in the temple, and it was Xu Fatzi and others who were mixed with him. Seeing that everyone was in such a situation, he couldn't care about that much, so he rushed to Xu Fatzi and shouted loudly.
The man who had spoken before heard him shout, and knew that he had not lied to himself. And he shouted at Xu Fatzi, presumably the man hadn't left yet. I thought, catch the former Qin general, promote the official to two levels, and reward five hundred taels of gold. Even if he is unfortunately killed, he can be promoted to one level and rewarded with 1,000 taels of silver. Thinking of the white silver, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and with a wave of his hand, he surrounded the ruined temple.
When the leader arrived at the temple, he saw everyone lying on the ground, and only the man who led the way kept shaking a fat man, and where was there anyone else. He was not angry in his heart, and shouted angrily: "Where is the general you are talking about?"
When the man saw him glaring at him, he felt an unspeakable fear in his heart. said in a trembling voice: "The little one doesn't know, but the little one looked like this when he came in." Seeing that the leader was even more angry when he heard what he said, he continued: "My eldest brother must have caused them such a thing, and I think my eldest brother should know their whereabouts." After speaking, he glanced at Fat Xu.
When the man heard him say this, he shouted, "Fetch a bucket of water and wake up the fat man!"
The two attendants immediately found a bucket of water and broke through the door of Xu Fatzi's face. Xu Fatzi was injured by lime, and when he screamed, he didn't know who hit him on the neck, and he didn't wake up. He was only unconscious, not seriously injured. The eyes were sprinkled with lime, and they were washed by this bucket of water, and they suddenly felt comfortable.
But the lime has entered the eye, and although it has been washed out by the water, the pain it has suffered is still there. When I opened my eyes, I only vaguely saw that there were many people around me. It's just that the man invited a helper to come and deal with him. Frightened, he took a few steps back.
When the leader saw him like this, he said, "Big brother, it's me!" Xu Fatzi recognized his voice and knew that he had gone to find help. With a sigh of relief in his heart, he said, "It's you, you're scared to death!"
The leader had been waiting impatiently, and when he saw the two of them like this, he did not pay any attention to himself, and exclaimed, "Do you know where they have gone, as for the man who beat you before?"
Seeing that this person was so rude to him, Xu Fatzi was unhappy, and shouted back: "You have your own eyes, don't you know how to look?" He is used to being the emperor of the soil in Shouyang, and he has long stopped taking ordinary people in his eyes. What's more, he can only see vaguely now, and he doesn't know that there is a general standing in front of him.
When the leader saw him like this, he grabbed him by the collar and shouted, "Do you say it or not?"
Xu Fatzi only felt that his chest tightened, and the whole person was lifted. The one who can drag himself up so easily is either a person with profound martial arts, or a god with divine power. When he was surprised, he rubbed his eyes, only to see a general glaring at him angrily, and he felt a little like choosing someone to eat. Immediately woke up and begged for mercy again and again: "The villain was blinded by the lime, and I don't know if the general is coming." If the words are offensive, please forgive the general. ”
When the man heard him say this, as soon as he let go of his hand, he let him go and asked, "What about them, Lao Tzu has no time for you to spend here!"
When Xu Fatzi heard this, his heart trembled. He really didn't know where the three of them went, but if he didn't tell the reason, he didn't think that these people would easily spare him. After thinking for a while, he said, "After the three men knocked me unconscious, I was unconscious. But the man was seriously wounded, and he would not have been able to run far in this open space. As far as I can see, the three of them must be hiding in this ruined temple. ”
When the general heard this, he was very reasonable. Just now he ordered his men to look around, but no one slipped away from the vicinity. Then he shouted: "Everyone obeys the order, carefully search this ruined temple, and do not let go of any corner." ”
When the soldiers heard this, they scattered in all directions, and slashed in the east and stabbed in the west where they might be hiding, until the whole ruined temple became even more dilapidated.
