Chapter 560 Is to save the Lu family or kill the Lu family
Nanchu, Sheshan County.
The mountains and forests are lush and green. In a village at the foot of Sheshan Mountain, there are carved beams and painted buildings, and cornices.
The exquisite wooden houses are distributed along the mountain and fit perfectly with the mountain. The exquisiteness reveals the ruggedness that matches the mountain.
The real Taoist priest has changed his attire. He wears a Chu people's blue-gray coarse cloth and has a gray turban on his head. He looks like an ordinary farmer from Chu area.
Gao Dabao stood in front of several guards, pulled off his turban irritably, scratched his head, and spoke in a surly tone.
"The houses in this place are not bad."
Qingfeng next to him pulled Gao Dabao and said, "This is my master's hometown, Lujiazhuang."
Gao Dabao said sarcastically: "Hey, no wonder it looks so impressive. It turns out to be the house of the old Lu family."
There was a lot of noise in the village, occasionally mixed with a little shouting and cursing.
Gao Dabao glanced at the sergeants behind him and gave instructions:
"Fifth brother, please take a walk and see what happened in the village."
Wang Wu, who was dressed like a Chu man, got out of the crowd and walked towards the village. When he came to the village, he grabbed a passing villager and after asking him a few words carefully, he turned around and came back.
"Let's hide for a while. The Chu army is in the village. The villagers said that a high official came to see the head of the Lu family."
The true veteran nodded: "Let's hide for a while, let's go, I will take you somewhere."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Gao Dabao to speak, he turned around and walked down the field ridge. He walked along the farmland ridge for a while, turned around a hill, and saw a small dam.
"We are hiding on this dam for a while. It was built by my third uncle's brother Lu Yuan when I was sixteen years old. Unexpectedly, it has not collapsed yet."
"Forty years"
The real veteran sighed, walked up to the dam, and squatted down at the gate.
Gao Dabao gave a signal with his eyes, and several guards spread out and climbed up the hillside, paying attention to the surrounding situation. Several Dingxiang guards were not idle either, going around the road and entering the village.
Not long after, the guards who were monitoring the situation in the village ran down the hillside.
"Lieutenant Gao Xiaoxiao, the Chu army has left, shall we enter the village now?"
Gao Dabao shook his head: "Wait a minute, it's dawn now, so many strangers entering the village will completely expose our whereabouts."
As he said that, Gao Dabao glanced at the real Taoist priest. If the old Taoist was willing to lead the way, it would not be impossible for him to enter the village.
The old man squatted on the dam and stared straight at the water flow without saying a word.
Qingfeng stood next to the old Taoist, also silent, just staring at his master.
In this way, after Gao Dabao ate the mountain rabbit meat brought back by his two subordinates, night finally began to fall, and the true master finally stood up.
"Let's go to the village and have a look. If it's too late, the hidden weapon in the village will be activated, and we won't be able to enter the village tonight."
After the old man finished speaking, he walked forward first. Qingfeng winked at Gao Dabao and followed him.
Gao Dabao waved his hand, and all the guards gathered around him and followed him.
A group of people crossed the dam and walked on the ridges of the fields. The cabbage in the field was growing lush green, the red peppers began to reach straight to the sky, the purple eggplants were as big as fists, and the buzzing bees were lying on the small yellow flowers on the cucumber stand.
superior.
After crossing a stone bridge with a black turtle and a red bird carved on it, everyone entered the village.
"who?"
In the night, a shouting voice suddenly came from a big rock at the end of the village.
Qingfeng, who was standing next to Zhen Yuan Dao, was startled and pulled out the sword from his waist in a flash.
The true veteran Taoist held Qingfeng's hand and turned to the big stone:
"Lu Zhonglian, the sixteenth generation descendant of the Lu family, returned home and asked to see the patriarch."
The big stone suddenly parted, and a young man holding a crossbow walked out of it. He looked at Zhen Yuan Tao.
"Are you the Lu Zhonglian who is the direct descendant but failed the examination?"
The True Elder nodded and said in a hoarse voice: "Yes, it's me. I'm here this time, firstly to visit relatives, and secondly, to see the clan leader for important matters."
The young man's face suddenly darkened, "What other big thing could it be? The ship built by my Lu family went awry. The young prince sailed out of the East China Sea and has not returned yet. In ten days, our Lu family will be imprisoned."
Gao Dabao's face lit up when he heard this, and he looked at Wang Wu, the captain of the Dingxiang Guards School next to him. Things were going to be easier to handle this time. The Lu family had foreign troubles, so walking would be much easier.
The young man put away his crossbow and greeted everyone:
"Come on, follow me to your third uncle's place to verify your identity, and I can take you to see the clan leader."
The young man went first, and the real Taoist priest called a group of guards to follow him. After a while, everyone entered the village. In the large courtyard in the middle of the village, they saw a man lying on a rocking chair and holding a cattail leaf fan.
Old man with white beard and white hair.
"Third uncle, this man said he is Lu Zhonglian..."
Before the young man finished speaking, the old man jumped up and excitedly held the hand of Zhen Yuan Dao:
"Twelfth brother, you are finally willing to come back. Do you know how much my brother has looked like you over the years?"
"You bastard boy, you are finally willing to come back. What do you think, you won't leave when you come back this time?"
Having said this, the old man's face suddenly turned ugly.
The true veteran patted him on the shoulder: "Third brother, relax, I have everything under my control. I am here just to come back this time..."
"He just heard that the Lu family was in dire straits and came here specifically to rescue the Lu family from danger."
Wang Wu, the captain of the Dingxiang Guards School, stood up, interrupted Zhen Yuan Tao's words, and spoke softly.
The True Elder frowned, but did not interrupt Wang Wu. Wang Wu was right. This was indeed an opportunity to rescue the Lu family.
Lu Laosan was stunned when he heard this, and eagerly pulled Zhen Yuan Lao Dao towards the yard.
"Come on, let's go see the clan leader. We are about to be forced to death by the government because of the sea ship. When Lu Tao built the sea ship, he made it clear that it could not be changed. The young prince insisted on changing it. Something happened.
, the government has to rely on us."
While talking, the group entered the inner courtyard and saw the brightly lit main hall, where all the elders of the Lu family were sitting and discussing matters.
"Uncle Jiu, Zhonglian is back. He has brought good news and can save..."
At this point, Lu Laosan realized that he had not asked clearly just now.
Wang Wuyue came out of the crowd and saluted the elder of the Lu family in the main hall.
"Prince Anguo of the Han Dynasty sat down and ordered the military commander Wang Wu to cooperate with Mr. Lu to rescue the Lu family."
As soon as Wang Wu finished speaking, the main hall immediately fell into silence.
The head of the Lu family, Lu Jiuxiao, wearing a silk robe and holding a cane, stood up with an ugly expression on his face:
"Boss, you brought these people."
"Nonsense, we are the people of the Chu State. What you do is putting our Lu family in a position of disloyalty and unrighteousness."
Gao Dabao yelled from behind: "Let's pull the chicken, let your Lu family be disloyal and unjust. Your family is about to have your family confiscated and exterminated. If you are still unfaithful and unjust, your brains are made of shit."
Old man."
Lu Jiuxiao's face turned red, and after breathing hard for a few times, he turned back and fell straight down.
Lu Laosan looked confused. Damn it, you guys are here to save the Lu family, or to kill the Lu family.
