Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 284

Su Chen and Zhou Jiamin let go of each other. Facing the approach of the Orion father and son, the former maintained a little vigilance, and said politely, "Thank you, the strong man!"

The middle-aged hunter looked at the two of them and asked curiously, "Who are you, why are you in such a mess, as if you were hunted down?"

Su Chen smiled bitterly, and explained: "To be honest, we originally followed the business team from Runzhou to Jinling. When we went nearby, we encountered bandits in the green forest. They killed everyone they saw. My... fiancee and I were lucky enough to escape, but Not badly hurt, too."

When Zhou Jiamin heard him tell her identity as his fiancée, she showed a little shyness, but there was a burst of sweetness in her heart, and a touch of tenderness quietly floated in her eyes.

"It's disgusting!" The middle-aged man was very upright, scolded the bandits a few words, and then said politely: "After leaving the mountain forest, the foot of the mountain below is our Zhuangzi. Day, do it again.”

Su Chen pondered for a while, and felt that this proposal was very safe. The situation outside is unknown at present. He and Jia Min are injured, and he is also very hungry. He urgently needs a safe place to rest and recuperate. He replied: "Then bother this A strong man."

"My surname is Jing, and the single name is Hong. This is the dog Jingyun!" The middle-aged Orion introduced.

Su Chen nodded slightly, and was very grateful to the father and son. After all, there were no two of them. He and Zhou Jiamin might have been torn apart and devoured by the pack of wolves.

"My surname is Su, from Runzhou!"

Su Chen saw that the Orion father and son didn't look like bad guys, and they had just saved their lives, so he didn't have any more doubts, and planned to rest in the village before thinking about where to go next.

Zhou Jiamin has no objection, and for the time being follows Su Chen's lead.

Jing Hong and Jing Yun tied up the wolves they had shot and lifted them up, intending to take them back to the villa and strip off the wolves' skins, meat, bones, etc., all of which can be exchanged for money.

After a while, the four began to descend the mountain.

Su Chen and Zhou Jiamin supported each other, followed Orion and his son, left the mountains, and finally saw a farm in front of them.

On Su Chen's body, there was only a thin inner shirt. His outer shirt had been taken off and buried in the ground before going down the mountain, so as not to cause misunderstandings and troubles if he entered the village covered in blood.

After entering the village entrance, I found that there were only a dozen or so families here, all of whom belonged to the mountain people.

In addition to farming and farming, some men in the village usually go to the mountains to hunt and become hunters, some chop firewood to be woodcutters, and women pick wild fruits, medicinal materials, and weave cloth to fill their households.

Led by Jing Hong and his son, they came to a simple courtyard house.

"This is a humble house. I'll find some clean clothes for you to change into. You can stay in the side room next to it."

Jing Hong arranged a wing room for the two of them, and found two sets of clothes, both of which were made of ordinary Gebu.

Su Chen and Zhou Jiamin washed off the blood and mud on their faces, washed their hair, put on clean clothes, and immediately lifted their spirits.

Especially Zhou Jiamin, who didn't have a gorgeous dress on her body, she was much more simple. The soft sunshine in the morning reflected on her pretty, tender and smooth face, which was unparalleled in beauty.

After looking at it in surprise, Jing Yun looked at Su Chen with envy and said, "Brother Su, your mother-in-law is so beautiful!"

Zhou Jiamin heard that her cheeks were flushed, this title and identity made her feel an indescribable joy in her heart, and she glanced at Su Chen affectionately, mixed with tender affection.

Su Chen just smiled awkwardly, no answer, no veto, so he silently accepted it first.

Jinghong's wife, Mrs. Liang, is generous and decent, not as rough as ordinary mountain women. She is also very enthusiastic when her husband brings guests back. She even specially cooked some dishes and stewed venison for lunch.

Su Chen learned through chatting with Jing Hong that he has an older son who was drafted into the army three years ago. Jing Yun is the younger son. He has studied in a private school in the village for several years and knows some words, but he is not the material for the imperial examination, so Since he was 11 years old, he stopped studying and has been hunting with his father in the mountains.

Jing Hong's ancestor was from the northern Central Plains and was a middle-level general in the later Jin Dynasty.At that time, Shi Jingtang, who stayed in Taiyuan and was the Jiedu envoy of Hedong, colluded with Khitan and recognized Khitan Emperor Yelu Deguang as his father. It is called Later Jin.

Soon after, the Jin army invaded Luoyang and destroyed the later Tang Dynasty. Shi Jingtang's practice of cede the land and call him his son was opposed by many people, including his own former cronies.When Shi Jingtang died, his nephew Shi Chonggui was made his heir.

After Shi Chonggui ascended the throne, he decided to gradually break away from his attachment to Khitan. He first declared that he was a grandson of Yelu Deguang, but not a minister.The Khitan people were dissatisfied, and they led an army to attack Jin. The two sides fought in Chanzhou, and each had a victory or defeat.In 945 A.D., the Khitan marched south again, and Shi Chonggui personally conquered and defeated the Khitan again.But two years later, the Khitan went south for the third time, and Du Chongwei, an important official of the Later Jin Dynasty, surrendered to Khitan, thus losing the main force of the Later Jin Dynasty;

It was at that time that Jing Hong’s ancestors fled south to Yang Wu and served as a small military official in Wu State. Later, when they got older and affected by the pain, they resigned from the official post and returned to the farmland. After three generations, the descendants became hunters. .

After Su Chen heard some of the Jing family's past, he felt that when he needed someone in the future, he could take care of him a little bit.

In the afternoon, Su Chen changed the medicines for himself and Zhou Jiamin. Fortunately, the wound was not inflamed, so there would not be too much danger.

In the ancient battlefield, the death rate was very high due to knife wounds. It is because of the low level of medical treatment and the lack of anti-inflammatory drugs.

Su Chen took out some broken silver and handed it to Jing Hong, asking him to ask someone to buy some medicinal herbs. He needed decoction, a decoction to relieve pain and heal wounds.

Jing Hong agreed and said: "No problem, I will let Yun'er go to the town to grab medicine, he runs fast!"

Su Chen nodded, and at the same time took out two pieces of silver pancakes and handed them over, "The two of us need to quarrel for a few days, maybe after a while, we still need to be escorted by Brother Jing. The money on my body is useless, so leave it to Brother Jing Now, a carriage, and the rest, some households."

Jing Hong refused: "There is so much silver taels, I can't do it!"

Su Chen continued to persuade: "The money is nothing compared to saving lives. As long as you take good care of us and escort us back to Jinling or Runzhou, we will be very grateful later."

He made it clear in advance, because he and Zhou Jiamin were in trouble, and the money on his body would become a burden, and if not done well, it would lead to death. Such stories are not uncommon.

Su Chen didn't want to test human nature at this time, because human nature is the most vulnerable to the test!

Safety first, use money to eliminate disasters, take it out in advance, and ask for help frankly. I believe that with a lot of money, the Jing family will be able to win hospitality and get things done.

At dusk, Jing Yun bought medicinal herbs from a town more than ten miles away. After Su Chen asked Mrs. Jing to decoct the medicine, both he and Zhou Jiamin took it, and the injury was brought under control in time.

As night falls, the sky is full of stars, and the night of July is full of autumn.

After dinner, Su Chen stood in front of the door of the wing room, looking at the starry sky above his head, with a feeling of survival, watching the fireflies fluttering outside the fence, and sighed softly: "Silver candle autumn light cold painting screen, light Luo small fan Fluttering fireflies. The sky and night are as cool as water, lying down and watching Altair Vega."

Zhou Jiamin walked out behind him, listening to Su Dacai reciting poems, it was "Autumn Evening" written by Du Mu, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty, about the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. Do you feel sorry for yourself and his situation?Sleeping in the same room together tonight, should I take this opportunity...to make a private appointment for life?
