Chapter 39：

The fire blazed into the sky, spitting out thick black smoke, dyeing the sky a faint **** gray, surrounded by deep forests and dense forests, and the sound of killing was loud. Bobo swarmed to the 'bandit'.

Actually, the young merchants don't know if they are bandits, or the remnants of defeated soldiers, because their blood-stained robes look like they are woven.

At this moment, an immortal thief on the ground let out a faint moan. She looked at it and recognized that the man was waving a big knife and screaming at the female relatives a moment ago. He turned his head to a guard and said, "There's another one here." The guard took the order, came over with a knife and stabbed it a few times. With a low scream and a little splash of blood, another life was lost. Ami tofu.

Six months ago, Shaoshang was still a young woman with a slightly eccentric style of painting, but in the end she had a normal outlook. She would say two meanings when she met a cockroach or something, but now she looks at The stumps and corpses all over the floor no longer even wrinkle their eyebrows.

She looked down at herself, and the dark, brocade and colorful men's casual clothes on her body were just changed by Sang a few days ago. She was going to wear it to watch the Cuju match, but now she Stained with blood. Sweat flowed down the back of the neck to the back, sticking the originally soft linen underwear to her body, wet and cold and uncomfortable - the so-called joy and sorrow, which is the portrayal of her right now.

After driving away Mr. Lou who confessed and demonstrated the wrong demonstration, the convoy went all the way east, and the scenery along the way was beautiful, and it was sunny and snowless for days.

Have not been out of Sili yet, Shaoshang's stick injury is almost healed. She was a little puzzled. Back then, the fight caused a slight fracture in her arm, but it wasn't as painful as the cane torture this time. At that time, she had been raised for half a semester, so why did it take only six or seven days this time.

Is it the quality of this body? Then why did she do the pig's head for so long in the first place, it was all the same wound medicine. After thinking about it for several days, Shao Shang finally came to the conclusion that the quality of this body is mainly reflected in the muscles and bones, not the appearance of the skin.

Speaking of the image, if she encounters domestic violence, she may be disfigured, but she may also participate in the self-defense fighting class to become a master and go back, and then bite back 'Uncle JC, look at my face Isn't it clear enough?'—Hey, why did she move so smoothly with her bad brains.

In addition, she also found that this body has a musical talent.

When she took over the flute, Shaoshang was still quite uneasy, because she was known as 'Hacksaw Pulling Chrysanthemum' in the elective course of musical instruments. Who knows that after Sang Shi taught for a few days, her fingers seemed to be Understand it on your own, and play a simple 'bamboo branch tune' that is pleasant and lively - it seems that Cheng Taigong's genes are not wasted. When she gets rich and free in the future, she will make a little bit of high mountains and rivers, and improve her culture. To avoid being illiterate all day long.

After confirming that the foundation is good, Sang began to teach her to breathe and practice Qi, so that the breath is even and long. To achieve this goal, Sang's righteously asked Shaoshang to ride horses, walk, and maintain adequate sleep and diet every day. Sometimes it is really exhausting, whether it is camping in the field or on a bumpy carriage, the young businessman can fall asleep on his back. Sang was quite surprised by the girl's obedience, she thought that it would take a lot of effort to point out where to hit.

, must be hard shock, in order to soften the effect.

Cheng Zhi immediately understood what his wife meant, his eyes floated to the two tents that housed Cheng Mi and his twin sons, and after a while he said, "... How many children can't use it?"

Sang Shi did not speak, and looked at her husband quietly. Cheng Zhi touched his nose and said, "However, talents are rare. In order to prevent such stunts from being lost, we might as well send a few to the past...Ahem, learn some skills from the past, gain insight, ahem..." But there are lessons to be learned from the past. When the fight starts, he will never play a black face!

The nine-year-old Cheng Wei sneezed suddenly, and Shaoshang, who was lying beside her, quickly tucked the quilt for her, and muttered: "If you read books at night in the future, I will definitely Tell auntie!"

"You don't ask me to read in the car." Cheng Yu muttered.

Shao Shang said: "The traffic is bumpy, you read the words swayingly, do you need your eyes?"

"Then I go to Aguang Ayuan's car to sleep during the day, and I don't have to sleep when I camp at night, I can read."

Shao Shang said with a straight face: "People live and breathe with the sun, and the sun rises and the sun goes down. You reverse the day and night like this, and damage your body. Be careful not to grow taller in the future!" She is now It's really gratifying to be able to explain the principle of the biological clock so well.

Cheng Wei is still struggling: "The book says that there is a clan in Xishu who lives on the sand in the valley and must be harvested at night. This clan's lifespan is not short. It's been upside down day and night, and it's better to change it when you get to the county."

Cheng Wei exclaimed: "Burning the book was done by the violent Qin!"

"When the first emperor invited Han Fei, he had an enlightened forehead, but what happened to Han Wangsun later?" Molecules are naive!

"Then...then I'll go back to the county to read..."

—Yes! The little girl Cheng Wei is the legendary nerd theological master who says "it's better to learn than to be happy". Just as Shao Shang inherited Cheng Taigong's sense of fun, Cheng Wei also inherited Sang Taigong's habit of staying out of the house. When he was in Chengfu, the capital city, Shao Shang hardly saw this cousin; in Bailu Mountain, except for the school and study, no one could see Taigong Sang.

Inheritance is so magical, Amen.

What's even more amazing is Cheng Zhi and his wife. To say they are a match made in heaven. One is fond of elegance, the other is fond of arty style. .

, people come to the picnic that you touted me.

Following Sang, Shaoshang learned another kind of 'pretty'. It's not the simple and rude gold and silver jewelry that Wanjia calls slaves and cock-fighting lackeys, but to 'waves' and 'romantics'. The waves flow in the clouds and waters, and they are boundless. Shao Shang couldn't squeeze a couple of romances out of his bones, but he liked such gatherings very much.

The Confucian students at this time were not like the Confucian disciples of later generations. The content of the conversation is not even the nine ways of writing the word "fennel", but from the success and loss of national policies, down to the rise and fall of the previous dynasty.

Although the picnic is simple and the dishes are nothing more than dried fruits, hot soup and sautéed meat, Shao Shang is watching, but he has a broad vision and a clear mind. At this time, people have hatred and love like The sky is as clear and pure.

By the time the convoy entered Chenliu County, Yanzhou, Shaoshang not only was able to play half of the grandfather's legacy with Cheng Zhi and his wife, but also increased his height by two inches, and had a considerable harvest in the front and back. . And because of a few days of art, the temperament of the whole person has been greatly improved, and the originally good appearance finally has a place to use.

That Chen Liujun is a classmate and friend of Sang's brother Sang Yu, and Liu Chengzhi and his wife are guests. Sang Shi performed a stunt, and said with a smile, "My wife is still young", but her eyes sparkled and said, "There is a good candidate, hurry up and bring it to the table, what are you talking about"!

If Cheng Zhi had to arrive before the end of February, the motorcade would leave Chenliu in a hurry after a short rest, or Mrs. Jun Cheng would hold a banquet for Shao Shang to meet the young talents .

So happy all the way, everyone in the Cheng family ate hot pot and sang songs, and finally arrived in Dongjun.

Sang Shi hehe, and complained: "You brothers and sisters are next to each other, and you meet each other every three days in the past few years. Why can't you wait?" He said this, but he did not stop her husband.

"I just went to Bailu Mountain, a country boy, I really don't know anything except a few words, but my brother is from a famous family, but I don't think so. Not only did he teach me knowledge, but also taught me how to be a thorough person. Teacher and friend!"

Cheng Zhi's face was full of remembrance, and Sang continued to tease: "That's because Brother Gongsun sees your beautiful appearance, but you are stupid. "

Shao Shang secretly helped her translate it into vernacular: Brother Gongsun is a face control.

At this time, the administrative area of ​​the 'county' was much larger than that of later generations. Before entering the county seat, Cheng Zhi also managed to get three old men from the neighboring village to accompany him, and the young merchant dressed in men's clothing and accompanied him on horseback, which was considered to have completed the amount of exercise for today.

Dumb aptitude, when will it be enlightened."

Cheng Zhi smiled and said, "I hope that the younger brother will come back a few years later. The Chen family in Henan is well-known, and Master Chen has several daughters under his knees. Recently, he was taken to the mountain to accompany his parents. Maybe I can find a bride for my old man to come back!"

Li Taigong was overjoyed, his gray beard was shaking like a love: "If this is the case, it is a great blessing to the family!"

Shao Shang couldn't help but interject: "That's even more to my uncle's advice, he can even marry the pearl of the Bailu Mountain Lord!"

.

The group chatted, laughed and walked. Seeing the city gate from afar, Cheng Zhihu's expression changed: "No, the situation in the city is not right."

Taigong Li also stretched his neck and looked, with a solemn expression: "It's not right!"

Cheng Zhi is a frequent visitor to Qing County. At this time in previous years, the gates of the city were crowded with endless caravans, farmhouses carrying burdens to sell their harvests, hunters looking for good hides, and Outsiders who came here to find their relatives and find their way, but now the city gate is closed, not only are there no civilians in front of the gate, there is not even a guard!

Sang's lifted the car curtain and stretched out her head, saw the expression on her husband's face, and said in a trembling voice: "...you, you are going to the city...?"

Cheng Zhi looked solemn: "Senior brother, I'm afraid there is something wrong, I have to go and see."

Sang Shi was reluctant, but she knew that her husband could not sit back and watch, so she could only say: "Then I will go with you too."

Cheng Zhi shook his head and said, "If there is nothing in the city, it is fine for you to come in; but if there is an emergency, it is better to move in and out of light cavalry. I will take a team of guards, and the rest will meet Ding Zu is here to protect you."

Shao Shang was a little surprised. She always thought that the third uncle loved to joke and had a good temper. , act neatly and without procrastination.

Cheng Zhi raised his head and said to Tai Li, "Old man, I want to entrust my wife and children..."

Li Taigong bowed his hands and said: "Sir Cheng, don't have to say. Please lead the convoy to my village, where there are ravines and strong soldiers, which are enough to withstand unexpected events. Besides, my village is backed by dense forests and mountains, and there are shelters everywhere. place."

Not long after Chengping, people in the world have a deep memory of the troubled times not long ago.

Cheng Zhi nodded and said to his wife, "Don't be afraid, I'll go back when I go."

Sang shi nodded tearfully, reached out to grab her husband's large sleeves, and let go until her knuckles turned white.

After the couple said goodbye, Cheng Zhi led seven or eight guards and whipped away. Taigong Li hurriedly urged the convoy to turn around and go to another country. They locked the door for a long time, and then said a few words across the door, and then the city gate opened a line slightly to let people in. It was not until the city gate was closed again that Shao Shang went back to chase his own motorcade. While riding the horse, he felt something was wrong, as if he should not leave his uncle.

When catching up with the convoy, Shao Shang was hearing Taigong Li talking to Mrs Sang in the car.

"Don't worry, madam, your Majesty's Luan has just passed by, with Zhi Jinwu in front, Wei Wei in the back, and Yulin Hu Ben with you. It's only a few days away from Qing County. Who dares to commit a crime? !"

Sang Shi whispered: "I am relieved to hear what my father said."

Shao Shang suddenly said: "Auntie, we might as well send someone to ask for some help from the prefect of Chenliu County, even if it is a waste of money, we will give the soldiers a big reward."

Sang's face was full of gloom, she heard the words with a smile: "Yo, so lavish. My daughter-in-law is making a fortune."

Li Taigong also smiled and said, "Even if the young lady asks for help, Huaxian is less than two days away, but Chen Liu has to ride lightly for three days. Why don't you send someone to Huaxian?"

"Before I left, my father asked someone to carry a box full of money to give me pockets. I can also go out as a reward." Shaoshang said, "Hua County, let's send two of them too. , be prepared."

Seeing her solemn expression, Sang Shi knew that her niece was alert and smart, and immediately sent people to two places for help.

After walking for a while, everyone suddenly felt the ground tremble, a ferocious sound of horse hooves stepping on the ground from far to near, panic quickly climbed everyone's face, followed by bursts of rude and high-pitched voices With a whistling sound, twenty or thirty cavalry and knife-wielding bandits emerged from the horizon and rushed here.

The guards led by the Cheng family responded the fastest, and immediately shouted: "Arrange formation! Guard the master's house!"
