Shen Tang and the two walked forward, and after a while, they walked several miles. However, suddenly, countless torches lit up in front of them, and the torches lit up the dark night!
Looking under the light of the fire, Shen Tang discovered that Shen Ming led more than a hundred men to gather in front. Even those who were seriously injured and unable to move were carried over by others on wooden boards.
In addition, there are two more unexpected people. One is Lu You, and the other is Lu Feng!
"you……"
Shen Tang couldn't help but be stunned!
"Young Master!" But Teng Wu came up to him with a smile, "We came here to pursue the Young Master, but now that the Young Master is leaving without saying hello, it would be bad!"
"Brother Cheng, you recruited us, but now you want to follow the young master alone. Are you going to abandon us?"
"This..." Cheng Yuhu scratched his head, but Shen Tang didn't come back to his senses for a while.
"Young master, Brother Cheng, we have already discussed it. All brothers who are able to leave without any hindrance will follow you. No matter where you go, the brothers will follow you all the way! The remaining brothers will stay here first. Cultivation, training, and join us again in the future!" Teng Wu directly stated their decision.
"Sir, this is also the decision of all of us!" Another person stepped forward and spoke.
This person is also familiar to Shen Tang. He is the leader of the remaining victims, named Chen Xiaoliu!
"We have counted fifty people in total who can follow the young master. The rest will be handed over to Brother Shen Ming!" Chen Xiaoliu continued.
"Cousin Shen, don't worry! As long as you give me enough time, if we meet those people again, we will definitely be able to fight!" Shen Ming gritted his teeth and said, this time the fight made them feel a huge blow, and he One side clearly has a large number of people, but they are overwhelmed and killed by the other side.
"Cousin Shen, I left 10,000 taels of silver notes. You should take the rest with you. We have a long way to go, but you can feel at ease if you have money with you!" Shen Ming handed the thick silver notes to Shen Tang. , "We people will naturally help in the workshop, so there is no need for Cousin Shen to worry about it! Even if something happens, the ten thousand taels will be enough!"
"Brother Shen, although these people have been in contact with us for a short time, each one of them can be called a loyal and life-and-death brother! Going to Xiangyang, whether it is to find traces of your wife or to have some plans, some of your own strength is indispensable. ." Cheng Yuhu whispered to Shen Tang.
Shen Tang looked at the people in front of him one by one, and saw that everyone's eyes were calm and somewhat loyal!
"Okay!" Shen Tang nodded slightly. With the help of these people, he would be less afraid of what he would do next.
"Shen Tang!" Lu You sighed and walked forward, "I'm sorry, I couldn't..."
"Brother Lu!" Shen Tang waved his hand and stopped Lu You's words. He did not blame Lu You. Those soldiers of the scorching sun army did not care about Lu You at all. Lu You had no power except his reputation, so how could he stop them from doing anything in vain? for?
"I know you should go to Xiangyang, but I won't advise you. However, the Lie Sun army is powerful and the court has deep roots. Therefore, no matter what you do, you must proceed with caution. Keep the green hills and don't worry. No firewood! Only by protecting yourself can you achieve your goal."
"Tomorrow, I will return to Lin'an and take part in the Japanese army's futile mission. However, they have great power in the court, so I'm afraid it will be of no use."
Shen Tang nodded, Lu You being able to do this was enough to make him grateful!
"Shen Tang, you have to know that the greatest power of the Song Dynasty is in the court. Therefore, if you want to prevent similar things from happening in the future, the imperial examination is the best way! I am here There is a letter. If there is a chance, please help me forward it to Fan Zhineng! Zhineng is my good friend, but he joined the army in Suizhou Sihu! Although his rank is not high, his reputation among scholars is better than mine! If you are determined, just go to him for the solution!"
Suizhou is also in the north and is adjacent to Xiangyang Prefecture. Lu You has obviously thought about it carefully. Moreover, Shen Tang still doesn't know at this moment that the Fan Zhineng mentioned by Lu You is none other than Fan Chengda, who will be known as Fan Wenmu in later generations! As Lu You said, although his official position is minor, his status in the literary world is extremely high.
"Thank you, Brother Lu!"
Shen Tang did not refuse. Now, he has gradually understood the Song Dynasty. Whether he wants to change the status quo of the Song Dynasty in the future or even protect what he loves, he needs to have enough power, and the imperial examination is indeed the best. Way. Therefore, if possible, he does not refuse to go to the examination room!
"Brother Lu, what are you..." Turning his head, Shen Tang looked towards Lu Feng.
"Brother Shen..." Lu Feng sneered, with a hint of apology on his face. However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was blocked by Shen Tang. Although Lu Feng was the class leader, the third class yamen servants had to obey Wei Ask the order! Even if Lu Feng disobeys the order, it will not help.
"I'm here to ask Brother Shen to take him in! It's not easy to work in the county government! It's because I have no family and no room. I heard that Brother Shen was going to travel, so I followed him to learn more about him!" Lu Feng continued.
"Brother Lu, why do you have to..." Shen Tang changed his mind and guessed what happened to Lu Feng!
"Brother, don't try to persuade me. Whether I can drink and eat meat in the future depends entirely on you. I don't have any other abilities, but I can do odd jobs for you and deal with some trivial matters. It's easy for me!" Lu Feng said with a grin.
Shen Tang sighed softly, but did not refuse again!
The incident in Shanyin made him realize the warmth and warmth of human nature and reality! Whether these people in front of him came to see him off or wanted to follow him, each one of them was a brother that Shen Tang could absolutely trust and rely on!
Under the bright torch, Shen Tang set out on the road again. However, this time, two people walked away alone, turning into a team of dozens of people!
To the north of Yingzhou, there is a mountain named Sanjian! The entire mountain is made of white rocks, and a manor with white walls and gray tiles at the foot of the mountain seems to add a bit of agility and realism to the mountain.
At the entrance of the manor, more than a dozen stern-faced men were carefully observing the surroundings, while inside the courtyard, there were all pretty maids.
At this moment, more than ten maids are busy shuttling back and forth, some carrying basins of hot water, and some holding thin silk gauze! And their goal is a bedroom on the side of the main house!
At the door of the bedroom, a little girl pinched her waist, stamped her feet and anxiously urged the maids, "Oh, sisters, hurry up, hot water! I need more hot water..."
The maids entered the bedroom. In the middle of the bedroom, there was a large wooden barrel. In the barrel, there was a beautiful woman with her eyes closed. And on the side of the barrel, there was also a woman anxiously Watch the maids pouring warm water into the barrel.
If Shen Tang were here, he would definitely be shocked!
Because the woman in the barrel is none other than Liu Xiangling, who was kidnapped by the Japanese army. And the other woman is Shao Muyu, the owner of Baijinlou! As for the little girl outside, of course she is Yun Yatou.
