The originally quiet Zhuangzi suddenly heard a burst of dog barking.
Cheng Yu stood on a big tree next to the entrance of the village, looking at Hou Siniang at his feet, wrapped in a large piece of burlap, hiding the sheathed sword in her arms.
Unfortunately, there is a small round shield hanging on the back of the waist. Although the linen wraps his figure into a smooth shape, it only looks bloated up to the crotch.
There are more than a dozen figures behind her, all of them look slimmer, but they are all ready to go.
Some of them even covered their heads and faces.
Cheng Yu turned his head and looked at the small woods outside the village. Duan Yulou was leading the rest of the elites to hide in the woods. As for the other refugees who were gathering later, most of them had not arrived yet.
Even if there are a few who are walking fast, they are all suppressed several miles away by Duan Yulou's "personal soldiers" at this moment, and are not allowed to move without permission to avoid getting away with the news.
The name of this village is Zhu Qianzhuang.
Viewed from a high place, it is exactly as reported by the scouts sent by Duan Yulou.
There are two high-walled courtyards in the village, one large and one small.
Hou Siniang led her "women's army" straight towards the compound. Duan Yulou, who was in the woods outside the village, saw that the women's army in front entered the village and no one stopped them to ask questions. It must be that there was no hidden sentry in the village and she was leading hundreds of people.
The elite sneaked towards the entrance of the village.
Cheng Yu, who was standing on a branch, suddenly felt a familiar chill coming over him. He spread his wings and flew to the highest branch. After placing his true form, he quietly summoned his soul. Sure enough, he saw two Yinshi floating next to him. Both of these undercover agents were wearing uniforms that looked like government officials. They were both shocked when they saw Cheng Yu appear out of thin air. They subconsciously raised the soul locks in their hands and put on a alert posture.
Cheng Yu saw the two sinister men looking like they were about to take action. He didn't want to cause any misunderstanding here, so he bowed his hands and saluted. Then he remembered that he still had the Wujun token given by Qin Hongyu in his arms, so he hurriedly took it out of his arms.
.
Seeing Cheng Yu take out something from his arms, the two Yin Chai were shocked all over. They put away the soul-binding chains, their legs went weak, and they both knelt down and prostrated:
"Greetings to Mr. Fuwu! I don't know Mr. Fuwu, so please don't blame me."
Cheng Yu saw this and said hurriedly:
"The two officers misunderstood, I am not Lord Wu of Fu.
This token is just a gift from Lord Fu."
The two villains looked at each other and got up carefully:
"It turns out that he is a friend of Mr. Fu Wu. Hehe, sir, don't blame me. I just mistook Mr. Fu because I have never met Mr. Fu Wu in person because of my humble position."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. It seems that the two officials are not from Fuwu Jundian."
Cheng Yu glanced at the other party's soap clothes and said.
"Sir, what you said is true. The younger one is a judge under Wu Jundian of Qingyang County."
Cheng Yu understood for a moment after hearing this, no wonder the clothes of these two looked familiar just now, as if he had seen them before somewhere, they turned out to be military judges from Qingyang County.
I still remember that after crossing the river from Jiangkou Town, the first people I met were the two military judges from Qingyang County, but at that time I had the Wujun token from Qingchuan County in my hand.
"So, this place is already under the jurisdiction of Qingyang County?"
"Exactly."
"Then why did the two police officers come here late at night?"
Cheng Yu felt that the two military judges came here a little strange, so he asked directly.
"Sir, since he has the badge of Mr. Wujun of Fu, he can be regarded as most of our own people. To be honest, sir, the two younger ones are just going first. Mr. Wujun of Qingyang County will also be here later.
It's just because Mr. Wu noticed that there was a bloody evil spirit suddenly growing here, and he expected that there would be a big disaster in the local area, so he came here to be on guard."
Cheng Yu nodded slightly when he heard the words, looked down at the people in Duan Yulou who had already entered Zhuangzi, and remained silent.
A burst of sandalwood fragrance wafted over. Cheng Yu turned around and saw a tall, strong man suddenly emerging from the dark wilderness behind him.
This strong man was wearing a crimson official robe, his face was covered with thick black beard, his eyes were wide open, and he led a dozen military judges behind him who were also wearing soap uniforms and flew towards Cheng Yu's side.<
/p>
The two martial judges beside Cheng Yu saluted hurriedly:
"I have met Lord Wu."
The Wujun of Qingyang County said kindly, but his eyes were fixed on Cheng Yu. After he flew closer and looked Cheng Yu up and down carefully, he saw that his two thick eyebrows were almost twisted together, and he raised his eyebrows as thick as a mallet.
Pointed his finger at Cheng Yu and asked roughly:
"Why does this husband have the aura of Lord Wu of the Mansion?"
When Cheng Yu heard this, his heart moved. This Qingyang County Lord Wu must be a rude person. When he saw him speaking, he treated him like a gentleman.
Cheng Yu knew that in this world, scribes were generally addressed as sir, but the word xianggong was quite subtle and could be praised or criticized, but when it came out of the mouth of a warrior, most of it contained a hint of ridicule and disdain.
"Lord Qi, this gentleman is a friend of Lord Fuwu. He has a token of Lord Fu, so he has the aura of Lord Fu."
The smarter one of the two martial judges beside Cheng Yu spoke.
"Oh? There is actually Mr. Fujun's token? Can you please give me a look?"
Cheng Yu did not answer when he heard the words, and took out the token from his arms. The Lord Wu across from him stared at him, then stretched his head forward to take a closer look, and immediately made a long "hiss" sound and looked up and down again.
After some time, Cheng Yu actually smiled and asked:
"This prime minister...sir, may I ask who your Majesty is?"
Cheng Yu frowned when he heard this, and saw the Wu Jun opposite him in red official robes. A moment ago, he was an aggressive warrior, calling himself Xianggong, but in the blink of an eye, not only the title had changed, but also his facial expressions had changed.
The word "gossip" is written all over it.
"Why does Mr. Wu ask this question?"
"Hey, Sir, I have seen this token before. Sir, please don't deceive me. Your Majesty will not give this token to anyone casually."
Cheng Yu understood a little after hearing this. Liang Hongyu had indeed shown some thoughts towards him before. From this, it seemed that the weight of the Wujun Token in his hand was really not light. It was no wonder that the martial artist opposite him thought too much, but he never thought about this.
In the body of a vulgar warrior, there is still beating a heart that is passionate about gossip.
"Lord Wujun has misunderstood. I am indeed a friend of Fujun, but I got this token in exchange for a couplet with Fujun."
Cheng Yu didn't know how to explain to the other party, so he simply told the other party about the exchange of tokens. Anyway, what he said was true.
But upon hearing this, Lord Wu of Qingyang County quietly curled up his lips under his thick beard and said:
"A pair of couplets can be exchanged for a royal personal token? What if someone is a nursing child? That's all, since the gentleman doesn't want to say it, he won't say it."
After saying that, he led the martial judges behind him and floated towards the village. As he walked, he turned back and said, Cheng Yuyan:
"I still have business to do, sir, please help yourself."
At just this moment, a burst of intense dog barking came from the direction of the high-walled compound in the village.
"Who is coming?"
Behind the tall courtyard wall, a shout came from a wooden archery tower. At the same time, several torches were erected one after another, and the sound of bow strings being stretched could be faintly heard in the firelight.
"Officials, please don't yell. I'm here to escape the famine, just looking for a bite to eat."
"Hey!"
There was a soft sound from the arrow tower, and then a bunch of torches were dropped from above and fell beside Hou Siniang outside the courtyard.
Everyone upstairs looked down by the light of the fire, and saw a dozen people standing at their feet. They were all weak women, especially the one in the lead. She looked quite slim, but only her crotch was like
It is much more generous than others.
"This village does not accept refugees, please retreat as soon as possible, otherwise we will serve you with bows and arrows!"
"Shua!"
Several long arrows were placed on the string, and the arrows pointed at Hou Siniang with a cold light.
Archers!
The idea really stuck.
Hou Siniang's thoughts suddenly changed and Jiao Didi shouted:
"Officials, please don't do anything. This slave family is full of women. They all have no power to tie a chicken, and they just want to eat and drink."
"Oh! Only women."
There was a burst of low discussion and laughter on the arrow tower. After a few breaths, a person who seemed to be the leader rushed down and shouted jokingly:
"Then what do you ladies want when you come here late at night?"
"The slave family and the sisters are all suffering widows. The head of the family all died of illness and hunger during the escape. The sisters had to hug each other for warmth. After walking in the wild for three days, there was no food... long ago, so they begged the officials to give them a pity.
, my sister is willing to work as an ox or a horse, no matter what the driving force is, no matter what is allowed."
"Oh? As a cow or a horse, you can be driven as you please?"
"Well! We just want to survive..."
"Nothing is allowed?"
"Nothing... is not allowed."
"Aha! We are all rural soldiers. We don't do the work of driving cattle and horses on weekdays, but we love riding astride cattle and horses. Haha! Hahahaha..."
"Hahahaha!"
There was a burst of carnival laughter on the arrow tower. Hou Siniang tightened the linen she was wrapped in, breathed secretly, and said softly:
"As long as there is food to eat, the servants... are willing to be like cattle and horses, and they will let the officials ride on them."
"Hahahaha! Wonderful, wonderful! In that case, you can quickly go to the side door and wait!"
The leader walked down the courtyard wall and the archery tower first, and smiled at the other villagers behind him:
"Leave one person here to keep watch. The rest of the brothers will go with me to pick out a young lady and ride on her to play with her."
The village warriors made a "coax" noise and got into a mess, talking and squeezing to grab the arrow tower.
"I think the little lady in the lead is very nice. She has a slender figure and a round hip. She must be a good childbearer."
"Bah! The one in the lead is our second brother, so how can it be your turn?"
"What are you shouting for? There are more than a dozen, enough for you to sort out, but don't let anyone else hear it. After we finish sorting, it won't be too late to call out."
"Yes, yes, hush, silence! Silence!"
The heroes from the countryside squeezed down from the archery tower with sticks, swords and guns, and ran towards the small side door in a crowd of laughter. Only a torch on the archery tower high up was left burning alone in the dark night.
……
"Woo..."
For some reason, the dogs in the village that were barking just now all whimpered lowly and fell to the ground, looking particularly obedient and quiet.
"Hey! Second brother, why did you suddenly feel cold?"
"Hehe! It must be that you, the young man, are thinking about the young lady, so you are in a panic. Second brother, since this guy has been shipped, you can save this anxious guy when you pick the young lady later."
"Why..."
"Hush! Silence! Open the door!"
"Clang! Squeak!"
The door latch fell, and a harsh sound of the door pivoting pierced the silent night sky.
"Ladies, you've all lined up, come in and get the fruit."
