When night fell that day, because the two of them were not very good at riding, the four of them took two horses, leaving one as a replacement, and escaped in the dark.

Li Jing and Xu Ziling rode together, and Kou Zhongze and Su Su rode together.

Kou Zhong put his arms around Su Su's waist, pressed against her pink back, and smelled her body fragrance. He only hoped that it would continue like this forever.

Susu was still frightened at first, but now she thought that Kou Zhong was his little brother. Although she had some feelings for that kind of close contact, it was not strong. Then she thought that Kou Zhong was enjoying it so much.

Li Jing was indeed an extraordinary person. He would dismount his horse from time to time and listen carefully to identify whether there was an ambush on the road. He also knew how to use the terrain to hide and hide, and never advanced hastily.

At dawn, the four finally left the dangerous situation and entered the outskirts of Danyang County.

Danzhou City in Jiangdu is the last big city on the tributary of the Yangtze River that flows into the sea. To the west are Danyang and Liyang, the two major riverside towns.

Because Liyang fell into the hands of Du Fuwei, the traffic on the Yangtze River was immediately cut off, and Danyang was the first to be in emergency.

However, Li Jing pointed out that it was not easy for Du Fuwei to conquer Liyang. He only had some spare power to invade some neighboring towns and villages that had no resistance. It would be a blessing to be able to secure Liyang in the short term, let alone invade Danyang.

Secondly, Yang Guang still controls the three most important strategic towns in the country: Daxing, the capital, Luoyang, the eastern capital, and Jiangdu on the coast.

Since the opening of the three major canals, the Guangtong Canal, the Tongji Canal and the Yongji Canal, the north and the south have become one. Water transportation has also closely connected the three important towns, allowing the Sui Dynasty's new forces to quickly move to the south to suppress the rebellion.

Assuming that Luochang was the eastern capital of Emperor Yang, then Jiangdu in Yangzhou was his southern capital. They were both battlegrounds and places that Emperor Yang must defend.

Therefore, the Sui soldiers would spare no effort to protect Danyang to avoid harming Jiangdu.

It can be seen that Du Fuwei's occupation of Liyang was actually a turning point in the struggle between the rebel army and the Sui army.

The closer we get to Danyang, the more tense the situation becomes.

Warships kept sailing from Jiangdu to Danyang, and the Sui army even set up checkpoints to prohibit martial arts figures from approaching Danyang. Therefore, people living in Danyang kept turning back, and there were rumors that Danyang had gone into seclusion.

Fortunately, they had no intention of going to Danyang. They sold all three war horses in a nearby county and made a small fortune.

Li Jing divided the silver into four parts and told everyone to hide them closely. He said: "In times of war and chaos, anything can happen. Now the three largest forces of the rebel army are Dou Jiande occupying Hebei, Du Fuwei occupying Honghuai, and Zhai Rang occupying the Central Plains."

, the situation gradually became clear, and the Sui army was divided into pieces. However, in the name of the uprising, the gangster forces who bullied and plundered the four countries and wanted to get a share of the pie were also on board. If anyone encounters trouble on the way, we will try to get them in Gaoyou.

We will meet there and take a boat from there to go northward via the canal to Luoyang."

After looking at Su Su, he saw that she was shivering in the cold weather because of her thin clothes, and said, "We will find a hotel to rest here tonight. You two and Su Su will buy some warm clothes to avoid the cold."

It's so cold when there's wind and snow, we'll meet here later."

Kou Zhongqi asked: "Where is Brother Li going?"

Li Jing glanced at the shops on both sides of the long street in Wuxu Town, as if he was looking for something, and replied: "I'll see if I can find a shop that specializes in selling weapons and get two similar long knives for you to defend yourself. I hope the price is not too high! This

The business of Time Sword Shop is the best."

Kou Zhong said happily, "Then let's work separately!"

After breaking up, Kou and Xu, accompanied by Su Su, walked along the long street with many pedestrians in search of shops selling clothes.

The county seat is close to Danyang, where the city is always prosperous. Due to the large number of people who fled from Liyang, it is even more lively, but there is also a faint sense of panic and tension that makes people breathless.

Most of the shops were closed, Xu Ziling said, "How about going to the market to see if there are any mobile stalls?"

The three of them then turned to the market and crowded in.

Due to the large number of people, Susu stretched out her arms to hold the two of them tightly to prevent them from getting separated and to increase the warmth, which made the two boys intoxicated.

Kou Zhong leaned close to Su Su's ear and said, "If my sister doesn't buy a set of men's clothes, or if she wears a hat and covers her beautiful hair, others won't be able to see that she is so beautiful."

Su Su was praised by him and nodded happily.

At this time, the three of them entered the market, and as expected, there were a large number of stalls selling various goods, especially cold clothes.

Xu Ziling also slapped Su Su in the ear and said, "It would be even more foolproof if you trim your long hair a little and tie it in a man bun like we do."

Su Su happily said, "Will you do it for me?"

The two said loudly, "Of course it's the best!"

Susu pulled the two of them to stop at one of the street stalls, and enthusiastically picked out cold clothes and cold-resistant boots for herself, which was very noble.

Both Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling found it interesting and full of warm feelings.

Suddenly, the two of them saw several muscular men nearby who looked like gangsters. They were staring at Su Su who was squatting on the ground, whispering to each other.

The two of them felt comfortable and cursed secretly in their hearts.

Kou Zhong hurriedly leaned down and hurriedly helped Susu pick out the clothes. He didn't even talk about the price. He reluctantly paid more than twice the price and turned around to leave.

When they left the market, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"boom,"

Just as he turned into the street, a man stepped out and bumped Xu Ziling's shoulder hard.

Xu Ziling was caught off guard, and his shoulders naturally shrank back a little before he pushed forward with force. At the same time, the soles of his feet felt hot, and there seemed to be a stream of hot air flowing toward his shoulders.

"ah!"

The man groaned miserably, staggered back, and almost sat down on the ground.

When the three of them stopped in astonishment, six other mozi rushed out, blocked the way, and shouted: "He's being beaten!"

The two of them took a closer look and realized that four of them were the gangsters who had been staring at Susu just now.

Other pedestrians hurriedly avoided it for fear of harming the fish in the pond.

When Su Su's beautiful face turned pale, Xu Ziling took her two steps back, while Kou Zhong laughed and said, "We are brothers from all over the world, and we are one family across thousands of rivers and mountains. The second leader of the Yangzhou Bamboo Flower Gang is our grandpa, I don't know these few What's your name, big brother?" The Zhuhua Gang's call for instruction was played again.

The seven gangsters exchanged glances, a little panicked.

The Zhuhua Gang is quite powerful in the Yangzhou area, otherwise Kou Zhong would not have falsely claimed that he was from the Zhuhua Gang.

One of them, who was obviously the strong man taking the lead, took a step forward and said, "Whoever you are, now that our brother has been hit by you, how should we compensate him?"

Kou Zhong grew up in the market, so he didn't know that what he was seeing was hard to let go. Seeing their eyes falling on Su Su's plump breasts, he was a little frightened, but he knew that there was no way to avoid it, so he took heart. , laughed and said: "There is no money, but two lives. Come and get it if you are brave enough,"

There was a sound of wind, and the gangster on the left swept over with his kick.

Kou Zhong was very curious as to why this guy's feet were kicking so slowly. It didn't make sense.

Another man came from the right and punched me in the face.

It can be said that the two of them grew up fighting and being beaten when they were in Yangzhou. They were extremely experienced and used to working together. Only then did they start to attack each other. Xu Ziling took Su Su and took two steps back. Just when he was about to step forward to help, Kou Zhong looked like There was a pair of eyes on the back, shouting, "Look at sister,"

Koo Zhong sided to avoid a kick from the left, and at the same time he crouched down and waved his arms, hitting the gangster's lower abdomen hard with such agility that even Xu Ziling was stunned.

An even more amazing thing happened. Just when Kou Zhong waved his arm, his whole body was soaked with indescribable coldness. At the same time, a cold current came from the top of his head, penetrating the meridians of his arm, and gushing out with his fist. "Bang,"

The person who was struck by the punch let out a scream, and was thrown off the ground. He happened to hit another big man, and the two of them turned into gourds rolling on the ground at the same time, and they were in a miserable state.

When Kou Zhong stared at his fist in disbelief, the exclamations of Su Su and Xu Ziling could be heard in his ears. He knew something was wrong, as another man's knee had touched his vest.

Kou Zhong fell forward in pain.

The gangster who succeeded in the sneak attack was about to take advantage of the momentum to pursue him when he suddenly felt a cold wave rushing in from his knees. His whole body felt like an ice cellar, and his brain was shaking violently. He didn't know what had happened, but he found himself falling to the ground again. Can't get up.

As soon as Kou Zhong hit the ground, he rolled to the side to avoid the two kicking feet. He was surprised to find that the pain in his vest had healed without medicine.

When I jumped up, I realized that Xu Ziling was rushing towards me with all his might, punching and kicking the remaining five villains, and they were having a great time.

The person who was hit first and the person who attacked by surprise still couldn't get up.

Xu Ziling looked like a crazy man. He ignored the fists and kicks that landed on him, but he easily dodged them and then fought back fiercely. Those who were hit by him spit out blood and fell to the ground.

Kou Zhongna still didn't understand what was going on.

At this time, there were hundreds of people around, and everyone applauded for them. At the same time, he saw a few officials scolding and carrying back in the crowd. Kou Zhong shouted, "Xiaoling, the legs are here, pull!"

Xu Ziling was startled, stretched out his legs to push the last opponent away, turned around, grabbed Su Su with Kou Zhong, and ran away quickly.

The three of them walked for a while, hid in a secluded area and changed into cold clothes. When they turned out of the street from another side alley, they saw at first glance that they were just three ordinary young men.

Although Su Su still had lingering fears, she looked happy and understood that they were fighting for her.

As the two of them walked towards the place they agreed with Li Jing, they excitedly recounted the situation through Su Su's pretty faces. Kou Zhong proudly said: "When I put the pressure on that unlucky guy's vest, it hurt from the moment it started." I almost wanted to vomit blood, but in the blink of an eye, a comfortable cold air surged through my body, and all pain disappeared. The guy also bounced back from my protective force, and his balls almost fell out. "

Listening to his harsh words, Susu felt indescribably warm and happy, making their arms tighten even more.

Xu Ziling laughed and said, "You cool me down, I've never been hit so hard before, one punch at a time. It's okay if he hits me, but he bleeds if I hit him. The first level of the Nine Mysterious Skills is so powerful, you He said that if you practice to the ninth level, you won’t even burst the balls of Yu Wenhuagu.”

Kou Zhong stretched his head to Susu's hairline and took a deep sniff. He shook his head and sighed, "Our good sister smells so good. No wonder it attracts so many crazy butterflies."

Susu was ticklish and shrank her neck, and said angrily, "Xiao Zhong, if you do something bad again, I'll tell Brother Li."

Xu Ziling also came over and sniffed it vigorously with his nose, and said with a smile: "It's only fair that each person takes a sniff."

Su Su laughed so hard that her branches trembled wildly, leaning left and right, and the three of them zigzagged on the road, attracting the attention of passers-by.

Su Su suddenly stopped them and shouted: "We're here!"

The three people still refused to let go, made a ball, squeaky, but there was no evil thoughts between men and women, and some were just suffering from churchs.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Li Jing still came, the three of them retreated to a nearby alley and continued talking and laughing.

Kou Zhong said jokingly: "Sister, you don't want to go back to your Miss Zhai family. My maid will always be angry. What's more, when your master can't defeat Li Mi, my sister will be miserable. Most of the so-called rebels are worse than animals.

How many people can there be like Brother Li?"

Su Su smiled bitterly and said, "Sister, I have no relatives and no reason. Where can I go if I don't go back to Zhai's house?"
