v2 Chapter 126： Purpose of going to Jizhou

Zhang Eryong still didn't know that the house was already in a mess. At this time, he was riding his horse and whip on his way to Jizhou.

It was already dark, and it was a young year. The people had stayed at home for the New Year. There was no one on the official road. He was the only one who rode a horse galloping through the meager moonlight.

In fact, he could have waited until the next day to leave, but after seeing what his old mother was doing, he didn't want to stay at home for a moment.

When my father is not at home, there are only the stupid mother, the sister of the tiger, and the selfish, self-proclaimed little brother, the mean sister-in-law, and the elder brother who has no temperament. In this family, he is sincere. I don't think there is anything worthy of his nostalgia.

The beloved daddy is not there, this home is not like a home, nor does it have any attraction to him!

Running for thirty or forty miles in one breath, the sky was getting darker. When passing by a small village beside the official road, I saw a lantern in the distance. It was a village shop. The lantern was the village shop at the door. The guise of lodging and eating.

He went home today and hasn’t eaten anything. He’s so hungry that his chest sticks to his back. When he sees this small shop, his first thought is to go in for a big meal and take it in between. Take a good rest in the fire-kang house.

However, when I walked to my childhood, the door of the village shop was actually closed, and I couldn't push it open, as if it had been inserted from the inside and was not ready to receive guests.

Zhang Eryong took the horse with one hand, and slapped the door with the other, "Open the door, open the door, staying in the shop..."

After a while, a bed-ridden voice came from the door: "It's full, the guest officer will find another place to live."

When Zhang Eryong heard this, he couldn't help frowning.

For the New Year’s Day, there is only this small inn for dozens of miles away. When looking elsewhere, he has to go to Harahai Town, which is dozens of miles away. Right now, he is so hungry that he is dizzy and staring at gold stars. , How can you get the Harahai?

"The store, it's so late tonight, and there is no other place to go. Please make it more convenient for the store. I can give you more money." Zhang Eryong discussed.

Mentioned the words ‘give more money’, the inside immediately became quiet. After a while, I heard a kicking footsteps, rushing over to open the door for him.

The door opened, and a shrewd shopkeeper appeared in front of Zhang Eryong.

"Hey, the guest officer, the shop is full. If you really don’t have a place to live, the little one will have to help you put a few tables together as your bed in the main room. Do you think this will work? Just do it for the small ones. If it's too small, there is really no other way..."

"Okay, but if you have to, you can get some food first, and then you will count it with the store's money." Zhang Eryong is not picky. It's good to have a place to sleep this time. How can he be picky?

So he agreed and led the horse into the courtyard of the inn.

There are still a few horses tied to the yard, as well as two cars. The decoration on those two cars should be that the owner of the cars is not low, at least they are rich and expensive, and they are by no means ordinary people.

Zhang Eryong handed the horse to the store, and led the way into the inn by himself.

There was a charcoal basin burning in the main hall of the inn, and it was hot. He first went to the charcoal basin and bake a fire for a while to drive away the coldness from his body. When the body was hot, the store also came in.

"Guardian, what would you like to eat? The small shop has beef with new sauce, and some spiced peanuts, and the wine in the small shop is also made from pure grains, which is delicious..." In order to sell more Some money, the store spared no effort to introduce and recommend.

Zhang Eryong put an ingot of silver on the table beside him, and said generously, "Cut me two catties of beef with sauce, another dime of wine, and five steamed buns."

When the store saw the silver of white flowers, he immediately smiled like a flower, and proceeded to do it.

Zhang Eryong warmed his body and sat back on the stool, waiting for the store to bring himself wine and meat.

He went to Jizhou this time to visit Lan'er to see if she was living well as in the legend. If she is living well, he must tell her a very important thing, and that matter has something to do with it. Significant, related to the life and death of her man.

Before coming back, he had learned that his Shangfeng was trying hard to lobby the generals to raise troops to rebel. The name of the rebellion was to clear the side of the emperor, eradicate the king of Cham who held the emperor, and put the king's power back to the emperor.

The general’s heart has already begun to waver, but it’s still unclear, but it looks like it’s only a matter of time, and should be able to agree. Therefore, if she really loves that man, that man will treat her very well, this matter , He had to tell her to make her and her man be mentally prepared, so as not to be caught off guard.

If she's not doing well, then he won't say anything. After he returns, he will recharge his energy. When the general raises the flag to rebel, he personally leads his troops to Jizhou and kills the one who took her. A man who doesn’t cherish her, then, he will be with Lan'er again, no matter if she is married or not, and no matter if she has no children, he will love her as much as before, and he will definitely He will love her child like his own child, and then, in this life, he will never be separated from them...

He was lowering his head in thought, and suddenly he ‘brushed’ the door curtain was lifted, and the appearance of a girl with a maid's bun interrupted his thoughts.

I saw the girl looked into the room with a pair of apricot eyes open, and when she saw Zhang Eryong, she hummed and dropped the door curtain again, and went to the wing to find the store owner angrily.

"Shopkeeper, didn't we contract your small shop? Why are you recruiting customers again? But you think we don’t have enough money, or think you have lived too long, even the family of General Lu dare to offend you ?"

When the store saw the girl questioning, he hurriedly said with a smile, "Girl, I think he is also alone, and these three shifts are in the middle of the New Year. If I don’t accept him, I'm afraid he will freeze to death outside, and the girl is also kind. People, you can't bear to freeze an innocent person to death, right?"

"Fart, don't fool me. That old beggar was starving to death yesterday, and I didn't see you willing to give her a pancake. This will be merciful. Let me see. You are obviously a freak. Silver, I want to make a profit from both ends."

The little girl akimbo her hips and ruthlessly exposes the old bottom of the store.

The store was said to have been in the mood, and the old face blushed, and he couldn't help but continue to plead, "Girl, you are wronged, not for money. That person was the old customer of our family, and the old customer came to the door. , It’s in the middle of the night again, the younger one can't drive him away..."

The little girl kept her eyes open and said, "I don't care about you. Anyway, my mother is sick. The doctor calls Jingyang. If you just recruit some idle people and disturb her elderly care, turn around, the general's wife will blame it, don't Blame me for not reminding you!"

After speaking, he hummed again, and turned around with his chin.

The shopkeeper looked at the figure of that girl arrogantly, and shook his head helplessly. It seemed that the money would not be made tonight, hey!

He cut two catties of beef, wrapped it in oil paper, wrapped five more steamed buns, made a gourd wine, and went to the front yard to drive people.

"Guardian, you heard it just now. It’s not that the little one doesn’t want to take you in. It is really the family of General Lu’s family in Jizhou who have taken care of the small shop. The little ones can’t help themselves. You still brought these food and drinks to other villages Go and stay overnight, as long as you give more money, someone will take you in."

Zhang Eryong took the beef steamed buns and wine. It was still warm to touch the steamed buns and wine. If you go out, the steamed buns and wine will definitely be cold and not tasty. Someone said, let me go before I finish eating."

This request was not excessive. The store heard it and rushed to the backyard to agree.

Zhang Eryong didn't delay, put the paper bags on the table and opened them one by one, revealing a few big white steamed buns and a pack of thinly sliced ​​beef sauce. He took out a pair of chopsticks from the chopstick cage on the table, sandwiched the beef, holding the wine gourd, and ate and drank.

While eating, I suddenly heard a whimper in the backyard, and it sounded like an old woman in her forties or fifties.

The cry was unconcealed, and the movement was very loud. Zhang Eryong was wondering who was crying in the middle of the night. The store came back and he said to Zhang Eryong with joy, "I have already told you, but fortunately, the maid who is in charge is a heart. Good, not only let you eat and drink here, but also allow you to live here for one night."

Zhang Eryong listened, put down the wine and chopsticks in his hand, and said, "Then I will go and thank the mother in person!"

"No need, don't you hear crying?" The store looked at the door and whispered.

Zhang Eryong listened, so he sat down again, glanced suspiciously in the direction of the backyard, and said casually: "This mother, what's upsetting, why is she crying so late?"

The store is a owed person. Just now, he was busy with wine and meat, and the front and back yard talking about things. He was no longer sleepy. After hearing what Zhang Eryong said, he said to Zhang Eryong, " This maid is the nurse of a lady in General Lu’s mansion in Jizhou. The lady who seems to be her milk ran back to her parents’ house after an awkward relationship with General Lu, but when she met the bandits in Qingzhou, the carriage fell into the house. In the mountain stream, the mother fell ill as soon as she heard this letter, so she stayed in our shop and couldn’t walk. Maybe she was too worried about the lady, she cried day and night, as long as I cry when I am awake, and no one can persuade it..."

Speaking of this, the store shrank his neck and remembered the scene that day.

At that time, General Lu and this gangster happened to be resting in his shop, but they received a letter from the Flying Pigeon. After reading the letter, the general's face changed suddenly, as if he was going to the battlefield to kill. The horrible evil spirit almost scared him, this little common man, so he hid in the kitchen and didn't dare to come out.

Later, the general left overnight, and he didn't dare to come out until after he left.

However, the general's momentum is too scary. After three days, he always thinks of the suffocating look of the general when he sees the letter, and he still has lingering fears!

Fortunately, he is gone, if he stays here, he must be scared to death.

Zhang Eryong heard what he was talking about, although he felt very regretful, but he didn't care too much. After eating, he put the table together, the store gave him another bedding, and asked him to lay it down in the main room. Sleep one night...

That night, Zhang Eryong did not sleep well. The cry of the mother in the backyard came to her ears from time to time, and she heard some comforting voices: "Mother, don't be uncomfortable, be careful, the general has been working day and night. He has rushed over, and he can definitely get his wife back!"

The mother choked and said, "Why is it so easy? The 100-meter-high cliff has no bottom, not to mention that it is a body of flesh and blood falling, even if a stone falls, it must be broken. It does not mean that the car will fall into pieces. Didn’t the horse fall to death at that time, and our wife is afraid this time it’s too bad for you..."

"No, if something really happened, how could you not find the corpse? Someone must have rescued her, or she must be rescued by herself, and she was still able to move, so she left on her own. Otherwise, how could there be no corpse?"

"Hey, I hope so, I have pity for her since she was a child, and she hasn't had parents since she was a child, and it's the same when she is married. This child is so bad for life..."

After crying and crying for a long time, Zhang Eryong had to rest until she knew that the mother was tired and went to bed again.

**

At this time, although it was midnight in the middle of the night, Lu Yuan did not rest. He was riding a horse on the mountain road from Qingzhou to Fengyang. The attendants had been thrown out hundreds of miles by him. Now he is alone. One person, single-handedly found.

Ning'er has been in an accident for several days, and he has been unable to see people or corpses. He is so worried that he can't replace him with his own body. Today, he finally understands that Ning'er is not nothing in his heart. It occupies a very important and important position, but he has not noticed it until now.

Along the way, he kept praying, begging God to bless Ning'er from danger and be safe and sound. He prefers to lose his life for ten years, no, twenty years and thirty years are fine, as long as she can live, let him die immediately. It's okay.
