Being choked tightly, the young master of the Yun family still said unforgivingly: "Hunchback, if you dare to hurt a hair of mine, your whole family will never survive!"
Ji Cha smiled and said, "Kill if you have the ability."
The young master of the Yun family said sternly: "I won't give you such an advantage. I will dig your ancestral graves first, and then sell all the women to ride in the pen. All the men will gouge out their eyes and tongues, and they will be my family's slaves for the rest of their lives."
"
The Confucian scholar next to him felt quite unhappy when he heard this. He thought to himself that the heroes of the Yun family had always been famous, so why did their descendants speak so viciously? He frowned and said, "My friend, it's useless to talk faster than you. Think about how to get out first!"
"I'm sorry this hunchback doesn't dare to touch me."
The young master of the Yun family was quite disdainful, but as soon as he said the words, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his lower back, and he couldn't help but scream "Ouch".
"Don't touch Master!"
"Zhong Tuozi, if you have something to say, don't hurt anyone!"
The Yun family members were angry and frightened.
"Why are you panicking? I did acupuncture on your young master to treat his lumbar disc." Ji Cha's tone became frivolous, "But, I'm not good at acupuncture, so it might be two or three inches off.
It's four or five inches. He screamed so loud just now that I was so scared that I stuck the whole needle in and couldn't pull it out. Alas."
Ji Cha sighed repeatedly, and everyone in the Yun family was extremely anxious, shouting to return him as soon as possible.
The young master of the Yun family stopped saying harsh words. On the one hand, it was too painful to speak, and on the other hand, he was afraid of being stabbed again.
Ji Cha sighed happily for a while, and then said slowly: "Return me, you can...send me to the shore first." Originally, Ji Cha wanted to take the young master of the Yun family hostage and take the Yun family's big boat to arrive at Wuyun City overnight, but
Then I thought about it, there are too many Yun family members, and time has been dragging on for a long time. I don't know what tricks they will come up with. It would be better to stay away from these people as soon as possible.
Someone on the deck shouted to the people on the boat in front: "Bring the boat over and pick up Zhong Tuozi and the young master on board!"
Ji Cha shook his head: "No, no, no, I'll just take this boat ashore. The Yun family is too fierce, I'm afraid of scaring my wife."
The Yun family then ordered the boatman to weigh anchor and dock. Although the boatman had made a living on the water for many years, he had never faced such a fierce battle. When he lifted anchor, his hands were trembling. It took several hunters to help him steer the boat before he could let the small passenger boat go.
Move towards the shore.
The three big ships followed the small boat closely, and everyone's attention was on Ji Cha. Ji Cha was secretly proud and said to Hong Chen, "My wife, go and carry my things on your back." Hong Chen then entered the cabin and carried my things on his back.
Put on the bamboo basket.
Seeing that the boat was only a few feet away from the river bank, Ji Cha suddenly tightened his grip on the young master of the Yun family by the throat, stretched out his left hand to grab Hong Chen's right hand, stepped hard with both feet, took a few steps, and leaped forward.
Starting. The whole ship was under the huge force of recoil,
It shook violently and rolled over. The boatman's scholar and several Yun family members fell into the water one after another. The people on the other boats had no time to stop them and could only watch as Ji Cha and the young master of the Yun family fell to the river bank and ran towards the dark wild forest.
.
The big boat quickly came to the shore, and the people inside jumped off one after another. Several hunters and Confucian scholars on the small boat were not used to water, so the boatman and the old man in blue shirt threw them one by one into the capsized boat. The other few Yun family members jumped directly
We swam ashore and went chasing Ji Cha with other Yun family members.
The boatman and the old man in blue shirt pushed the boat to the shore. The hunters and the Confucian scholars jumped out and thanked the Confucian scholar. The boatman asked the Confucian scholar: "Are you still chasing the hunchback with those people?" The Confucian scholar shook his head and said: "There is a saying that 'a hundred hearings is better than a first sight'."
The virtues of the Yun family are far worse than I imagined. There may be some hidden behind-the-scenes in this matter, but it’s better not to wade into the muddy water." The group turned the boat right, twisted their wet clothes, and continued towards the direction of Wuyun City.
.
Members of the Yun family, No. 100, held torches and went searching in the wild forest. The forest was sparse, and in a short time they reached the end. A sharp-eyed person pointed to the ground not far away and said, "Why is that woman lying on the ground?" The crowd looked at her.
When I went there, I saw a covered "bride" lying on her back more than ten feet away, and they surrounded her with a roar.
They had seen Hong Chen take action before, so they did not dare to get close for fear of an ambush. One of them suggested shooting two arrows in the air to test the situation, and more than a dozen feather arrows landed directly on the bride's back. The bride groaned.
, and stopped making any sound. Someone boldly rushed forward and turned him over. He could see his face clearly by the light of the fire. He was so frightened that he fell to the ground: "Yes... yes... it's the young master!"
"What?!"
"Master?!"
Everyone in the Yun family gathered around to check and found that the person who was shot to death was none other than their own young master. They panicked and started blaming each other.
"It was you who fired the arrow!"
"Nonsense, I haven't even pulled up the bow, how can I release the arrow?"
"It's obvious that you have a guilty conscience and falsely accused others first."
"Who suggested shooting arrows just now?"
Everyone was quarreling with each other. Some wanted to make the person with whom they had a bad relationship take the blame. Some were eager to clear up the relationship and kept arguing for a long time. Later, they gradually realized that there was no direct descendant of the Yun family among the people present, so they discussed and decided.
, each
Everyone must insist that the young master was killed by Zhongtuozi, otherwise no one can get away with it. Then everyone pulled out the arrows, chopped up the young master's body with knives, covered the arrow wounds, and then hurriedly wrapped the body with cloth, and returned
In the river, sail away by boat.
At the same time, a few miles away, outside the wild grass, Hong Chen, who had already changed into linen and straw sandals and carried a bamboo basket, finally returned to Ji Cha who had changed his appearance.
This time Ji Cha changed into the clothes of the young master of the Yun family, a green and white satin robe, a red top embroidered with gold carp, a leather belt holding up white silk trousers, and white-soled black boots. Her long hair was tied into a high bun, and she held her head high.
With his chest held high and the moonlight shining down, he was showing wealth and majesty. But Hong Chen
His attention was not on his clothes, but his eyes were fixed on Ji Cha's face - this face was finally no longer stiff and expressionless, with white and tender skin, dark eyes, long eyelashes, a high nose, red lips, and a chin.
Slightly pointed, the more people look at it, the more fascinated they become.
When Ji Cha saw Hong Chen staring at him, he shouted with slight joy: "Daughter-in-law, have you seen enough?"
"No." Hong Chen said, "You look much better than before."
"Don't look at it if you haven't seen enough." Ji Cha stretched out his hand to pry off his head to prevent him from looking at him, "There is no boat, so we can only go to Wuyun City on foot, and walk towards the official road first, and wait until the day for two
Horse riding.”
"It's good to ride a horse." Hong Chen said in a hopeful tone, "I've only seen people ride horses, but I haven't ridden one myself. It should be fun."
Ji Cha was surprised: "You come from some valley, and you have never even ridden a horse."
Hong Chen said: "I come from Taoyuan, and there are no horses in Taoyuan."
Ji Cha asked: "What is Taoyuan? Where is it?"
Hong Chen replied: "Taoyuan is where Master and I live. I don't know where it is."
Ji Cha secretly thought that Hong Chen was a proficient in martial arts, but his mind was extremely simple. He might have been a disciple trained by some otherworldly master, and he came to travel around the world. But why was he looking for a certain knife? Could it be that that foreigner master and himself
Does his master have a similar purpose? Ji Cha decided not to ask further questions for the time being. After all, Hong Chen was simple but not stupid, and he was very alert. Asking questions too hastily might arouse defensiveness, and he could inquire more slowly later.
The two of them rushed to the formation under the stars and the moon, and when the sun was about to rise, they came far away from a caravan encamped outside.
Ji Cha said to Hong Chen: "You stay here and wait for a while, I'll go get Ma Lai."
Hong Chen nodded and squatted down, while Ji Cha tiptoed to the edge of the camp. The campfire had been extinguished for a long time, and the night watchers had already fallen asleep. Ji Cha walked around the crowd and walked to the place where the horses were tied, and picked out two horses, one red and one yellow.
, first took out the packet of medicinal powder from his arms, gave them a smell, then untied the reins from the small tree, and with a gentle pull, the two horses followed obediently and walked out together.
Hong Chen saw Ji Cha bringing the horse and asked, "Is the horse stolen?"
Ji Cha said: "That's nonsense. Can the things about tea pickers be considered stealing? This is called taking!"
Hong Chen shook his head: "But you can't take what they have without their consent."
Ji Cha added, "How do you know they didn't agree? If they didn't object to my taking him away, that would be their acquiescence."
Hong Chen said: "But they are sleeping."
Ji Cha made a "chee" sound and said: "When they wake up and see how beautiful we two are, they will not only be willing to offer two horses, but also a bunch of goods! We won't take advantage of them.
, just two horses are enough."
Hong Chen became more and more confused as he listened. He looked at Ji Cha carefully and thought: "Maybe this is true? Anyway, I am happy just looking at you and am willing to give you several, no, dozens or hundreds of bamboo rats.
——It’s a pity that when I left Taoyuan, I didn’t take any of them with me.”
Seeing Hong Chen's confused look, Ji Cha didn't say much. He picked him up and threw him on the back of the yellow horse. Then he kicked the horse's butt. The yellow horse neighed "Xilulu" and ran away with its hooves. People in the camp heard
The horse neighed and woke up, looked over and shouted: "Where is the thief coming from!" Ji Cha shouted from a distance: "You should be honored to have your horse stolen by tea pickers!" Then he got on the red horse, shook the reins, and chased
Riding the yellow horse, he drove away from the dust.
