Chapter 8: The Fish Pond Can't Kill People
n that the Raven Army is incredibly formidable!"Hearing the imperial envoy mention the Raven Army, the surrendered generals from the Great Qi dynasty suddenly fell silent. 。How powerful the Sparrowha...Zhang Guihou's "劫" is a shortened form of the Buddhist term "劫波", meaning that by overcoming this major disaster, one can gain an extraordinary period. 。Zhang Guihou's "robbery" included the extreme terror brought by his brother's death, the overwhelming murderous aura from Shi Jingcun, and the incompetence of losing the city gate and allowing the enemy leader to escape. 。Especially the unemployment issue, if judged according to military law, he wouldn't be undeservedly killed. 。To everyone's surprise, the official actually found excuses for his incompetence and escape. Zhang Guihou truly adored this official! 。But he knew better, if something happened to Dalan while patrolling the city walls, not to mention what would happen in the eyes of his superiors, Zhang's wife wouldn't let it slide. 。So Zhang Guihou made up his mind. First, he would protect Dalang from any misstep, and second, he would patrol the Shatuo people. 。Thank goodness, after all, the most vicious Shi Jingtang has died. Didn't Shatuo have another Shi Jingtang 。It seems like this ordeal of mine is finally coming to an end. 。
Another person who is undergoing a tribulation is Li Sikong and Zhou Dewi.
After escaping from Bianzhou through the Wei's gate, the two people were in a panic and took a wrong turn. 。Still, it was Chow Tat-wai who discovered the path was wrong. The two then changed course and fled towards Songzhuang. 。But this section where they went wrong happened to be a route the Bian army hadn't fortified. After returning to the correct path, they immediately encountered the Bian army, and it was their cavalry force. 。To enable Shi Shuchong to capture Li Kuang quickly, Zhu Wen specially handed over the captured Sha Tuo steeds from Bianzhou City to him. 。Shì Shū Cóng felt a thousand emotions swirling within him. He had calculated everything, yet he never imagined that the credit would fall on his own head! He had thought that with the city heavily besieged, Li Kuang-yu would be unable to escape. Who knew this barbarian would actually break out of Biānzhou! Shì Shū Cóng couldn't help but sigh, "Heaven bestowed wealth and honor, it truly can't be stopped." 。Now Li Ke's personal troops, guards, including that valiant sharpshooter Shi Jingcun, were all finished! There was only one left! He himself had a force of 10,000 men! Now there were also three hundred cavalry added to this.
The most crucial thing was whether he could encounter this Shatuo king! As long as he encountered... Forget it, two figures appeared on the road ahead!
Shi Shicong was so excited that he almost shouted, Oh my God, how good are you to Shi Shicong!
He immediately ordered: The cavalry should speed forward and capture those two to take a look!
Three hundred cavalry 。The sound of horse hooves pounded the earth behind them, the two men seemed trapped with nowhere to go. But suddenly, they vanished into a grove of trees lining the road. 。Those two must be the Shatuo kings! Shi Shicong would naturally not allow this great wealth to be devoured by the forest. He immediately ordered his cavalry to charge into the woods. 。The deputy general was a lanky man named Liu Xin. Hearing the order, he advised, “General, as the saying goes, ‘Don’t enter a forest.’ This dark forest looks extremely treacherous…” Shi Shuchong interrupted him, “Listen up! If we don't know the enemy's strength, of course we shouldn't enter the forest. We must be cautious.” 。Now that there are only two of us facing each other, what is there to be afraid of! If you refuse to enter this forest, I will lead my army in myself!" Liu Xin saw the military envoy become angry and dared not speak. He quickly led his horse army into the woods 。But the forest was dark and gloomy, with no sense of direction. The wind howled like demons, and Liu Xin did not dare to be careless. He ordered the cavalry to search carefully. 。It was Li Kuang, along with his loyal subjects, hiding in the forest. Li Kuang, taking advantage of the moonlight filtering through the trees, saw the towering figures of the Bian army horses and hissed, "Zhu San is shameless! He actually rides the horses of the Imperial Cavalry to chase after me!" 。"This bunch is so slow, when will they get here" Zhou Dewei grumbled impatiently.Li Ke used a wry smile: "What does Yang Wu mean"Zhou Dewei smiled: "The last general wants to let the Grand Strategist see a good show, but those guys aren't coming to perform." 。Li Ke used listened in a daze. 。Although both he and Zhenyuan were skilled in martial arts, the opponent was after all a cavalry force. Unlike the streets of Bianzhou, the forest provided limited hindrance to horses. If the two wanted to engage the cavalry in a foot battle, their chances of winning would be very low. 。
At this moment, Liu Xin and the cavalry finally arrived within range. Zhou Dewi suddenly whistled sharply, and Li Kuang was surprised. Suddenly, those horses from Beidi stood up and reared, frantically kicking their hooves. The Bian army was caught off guard and fell from their horses in confusion. Some were even trampled by panicked steeds.
Zhou Deyu rushed forward like lightning, and after a moment, he rode back on horseback leading another: "Sīkōng, please mount your horse!"
After dismounting in Bianzhou City, Li Keyong had already walked for over ten li, his legs aching from the journey. 。Upon seeing the warhorses, my face lit up with joy. I quickly leaped onto one's back. 。Zhou Dewei blew his whistle again, and the two Daibei warhorses carrying the two men charged out of the forest. 。The Bian army soldiers naturally discovered that arrows rained down upon them, but they all landed behind the two men. 。Li Ke used rode his horse at full speed, the night wind whistling past his ears. His 36,000 pores were tingling with excitement, and he couldn't help but laugh and ask, "Yang Wu, what kind of trick did you just play"Zhou Dewei urged his horse to catch up with Li Ke used and smiled, "To be honest with Sir, this batch of horses from Bei trained with whistles as commands. The Grand Protector specially taught Tie Shan, I was curious and learned a few, but unexpectedly it came in handy just now." 。Li Ke used was about to exclaim in admiration, when suddenly he heard a great commotion behind him. Turning around, he saw a large contingent of Bian army soldiers chasing after them. 。The two men hurriedly rode their horses at full speed to the top of a hill. By this time, dawn had just broken, and in the distance, another army of cavalry was approaching. Li Kuangyu couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise, "This scoundrel Zhu San actually sent his entire army to hunt down Li!"
Back in Bianzhou City, Cao Yuge and her son, escorted by Zhu Shouyin and that bearded old soldier, left the Wei family gate and hurried away. 。In a short time, Zhu Youyu and Zhang Guihou led their cavalry to begin searching the city. The grizzled veteran was experienced, pulling the master and servant away into secluded alleys, but no matter which household they reached, no one opened their doors to let them hide. 。Zhu Shouyin couldn't help but curse: "My Lady, these people in Bianzhou are made of iron! They are so heartless and cold!"Cao Yu'e brushed her hair back and sighed: "In this time of chaos and war, who wouldn't be afraid of being caught in the crossfire If someone is willing to take me in, it's fate. 。No one opened the door, it could only be said to be a matter of fate. 。As the master and servant were discussing, a sound of horse hooves came from behind. The grizzled old soldier hurriedly told them to quickly take refuge in a narrow alley. Unexpectedly, the soldiers of Bian army fired a volley of arrows towards the alley. The old soldier was hit by an arrow in his back and died instantly. 。Zhu Shouyin pulled Cao Yuge hard and ran, this alley was very narrow, the cavalry had to detour to block them. 。As they saw the mast of a ship in the distance, Zhu Shouyin rejoiced and said to his wife: "My lady, the place where that ship is anchored must be the Bian River." 。
First, take the madam there and then come back to get the third brother.
Cao Yu'e was in a complete mess tonight, reciting scriptures with great chaos. She, as a woman, had already been terrified out of her wits, where could she possibly find any composure 。He immediately whispered to Wù'er, "Wù'er, you hide here first. Uncle Zhū will be here to take you in a moment." 。Little Xu'er, seeing his mother leave, was gripped by immense fear. He dared not stay in the dark and unfamiliar alley. He called out "Mother" loudly and rushed onto the street to find her. Just then, Zhu Youyu rode up on his horse and shot a spear into Xu'er's small body, lifting him high into the air before throwing him down. It seemed he was dead. 。Cao Yu'e heard her child calling, just about to turn around, but was held by Zhu Shouyin at the nape of her neck. She only heard the servant hurriedly say: "In an emergency, we must act quickly, please forgive our offense to madam." 。Zhu Shouyin carried Cao Yu'e, and hurried a few steps to the Bian River. He quietly boarded a small fishing boat and drifted away with the current. 。Cao Yu'e was flustered and kept sobbing, more worried about how to see the Minister of War.
As for Xuer, who had been flung far away, she landed in a vegetable garden. 。This vegetable garden was only an acre or two in size. There happened to be a local official named Ding living nearby. After hearing the chaos of soldiers all night, he didn't dare light a lamp. He borrowed the hazy moonlight and saw that the Bian army even spared no six-year-old child, poking them with their guns until they fell dead in the vegetable garden. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly. 。At this very moment, the young boy's hands and feet seemed to move. He was startled and thought to himself, "This child has such a strong life force! Even after being hit by a bullet and falling from such a height, he could still survive"Ding Weiyuan instinctively leaned against the window to carefully observe the child. A thought flashed through his mind: If there were no Bian soldiers here, Ding would go and rescue this child in a few days, but it wouldn't be easy to accomplish! As soon as he thought about it, he was about to move back into the house and downstairs, but then he saw the child move again. Looking closely, he couldn't help but draw a cold breath: This child wasn't struggling to survive, but growing up! What else could this be besides "corpse transformation"Actually, it wasn't anything like a “corpse transformation” 。Of course, Ding Yuanwai couldn't possibly know the true reason why Xu'er grew up, which came from over 1100 years later. 。In Kaifeng, there was a primary school student named Lin Neng. Besides loving to read historical books, legends, and tales of chivalry, he found regular schoolwork quite mundane. As graduation loomed, his parents were deeply worried. His grandfather, Lin Taiguo, came up with a plan. He secretly took the child to Xinzhen Guan outside the city, seeking blessings from the Three Pure Ones, hoping Lin Neng would change his ways and become studious and focused, passing the entrance exams to a good school and becoming a revolutionary successor. 。Lin Neng didn't dislike this Xinzhen Guan either. Inside, there were lush forests and bamboo groves, winding paths, quiet rooms, and even a small bridge over flowing water. It was indeed refreshing to the spirit. 。There was only one thing that surprised Lin Neng beyond imagination. In this pavilion, surprisingly, it was all vegetarian meals! After two meals of vegetarian dishes, Lin Neng felt like his eyes were turning green with envy. 。Suddenly, I remembered the pond where there were both turtles and fish, and the water wasn't deep. 。
According to the master, the pond where animals are released is a place of karmic connection and people won't drown there.
Since that's the case, why not catch two fish to satisfy our cravings
I thought about it and decided to do just that. 。Lin crept into the fish pond, those silly koi were about to be caught by him. Suddenly his foot slipped and he fell into the water. When he woke up, his back was burning with pain. 。I touched it with my hand, but there was nothing unusual. Could it be an injury to my back Internal injuries
Suddenly, I heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the vegetable garden. Looking around at the low ancient buildings, the vegetable patch beside me, and the hazy moon in the sky, Lin Neng couldn't help but think: What the hell is going on Could it be that I have traveled through time
But immediately, a thought flashed in his mind: What does it mean to travel through time
Lin Neng smiled bitterly. 。I really messed up, how could I even forget about time travel Didn't the teacher assign us a composition about time travel a few days ago
But there was a thought in my mind: What is a teacher What is a composition
Lin Neng couldn't help but feel a shiver run down his spine: Something's wrong! How could there be so many low-level questions in my head Could it be... that the original owner is asking me
Sure enough, another thought flashed through my mind: What is the original owner
Lin Neng looked at his body in fear: He was actually wearing a set of ancient children's clothing that was obviously too small!
Oh my god, I'm at least a Young Pioneer! Why didn't the time travel master give me a proper outfit Too casual, too unprofessional, too irresponsible! No, I have to complain!
A series of questions in his mind were tangled into a mess, and Lin Neng was too lazy to think about it. 。It's just the original owner asking.despair. This young general was clearly Li Jiuniang's boyfriend. Compared to himself, the other party was superior in every aspect: age, height, appearance, clothing, and profession. He wasn't even on...
