The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 98
The sun has set among the mountains, and the night has shrouded Taihang again, but Chishiling is still brightly lit almost as if it were daytime.

The night was getting dark and the cold was getting heavier. Xu Huang tossed and turned on the bed in the handsome tent in the river valley camp. Although he had won several battles against the Yellow Turbans a few days ago, Yang Feng also sent people to bring the wine and meat of the army, but Xu Huang was not. Somewhat sullen.

Staying in the tent was even more oppressive, Xu Huang shook his heavy head, then hung up and walked out of the tent with his guards.

The gentle mountain wind blew on Xu Huang's body, but it made Xu Huang a little awake.

At this time, it was ugly. Most of the sergeants had fallen into sleep. Xu Huang was wrapped in a shirt and walked on the road with no one with his personal guards.

He was getting closer and closer to the direction of the Yuanmen, listening to the crackling of the wood burning in the brazier and the chirping of insects around him, Xu Huang's annoyed mood gradually subsided, and a patrol team not far away was heading towards Xu Huang's. Approaching the direction, the sergeant on duty at night dutifully stood on the wall of the village and watched the surrounding darkness vigilantly.

Xu Huang stopped at the Yuanmen, and after asking a few words from the officers who were watching the night, he wanted to leave. At this moment, a slight sound suddenly came from his ear. Xu Huang suddenly raised his hand, and the guards behind him clenched the hilt of the sword. , stepped forward and surrounded Xu Huang behind him.

The sergeant on the wall of the village has already bent his bow and arrow, and the archer of the watchtower has also drawn out the short horn on his waist.

"who?!"

A bandit dressed as a leader on the Walled Wall asked sharply.

"Blind your dog's eyes, can't you recognize who I am?"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a scolding voice from outside the village. Xu Huang felt a little familiar, and he walked up to the wall and stuck his head out to follow the voice.

A knight wearing a black robe and a white turban outside the Yuanmen is the Kushai camp at the foot of the mountain. At this time, there are only five or six knights who are close to him.

"What is the purpose of the Kulei village master coming to my river valley camp so late?"

Xu Huang and Ku Lei are also old acquaintances. This Ku Lei is not actually Yang Feng's direct line. He is a bandit in Montenegro. He is quite smooth and powerful, but he is quite smooth and good at both sides.

It's just that Yang Feng's entry into the mountain is big, and he consciously couldn't resist it. He joined Yang Feng's command early, and Yang Feng did not suppress too much with the idea of ​​buying horse bones.

He was even assigned to guard a checkpoint in Montenegro, but Yang Feng had all the supplies such as money and food in his hands.

Xu Huang suddenly made a sound, but he was startled by the bitter slams outside the gate. He drove his horse a few steps forward, and saw Xu Huang's face clearly by the light of the fire on the wall. Only then did he smile: "Who am I? It turned out to be Xu Gongming, and I came here to find you.”

Xu Huang's eyes narrowed slightly, but it was quite strange for Ku Lei to leave the village. He raised his eyes to look behind Ku Lei, there were indeed only five or six trusted knights, and there was also a brazier in the distance, and there was nothing unusual.

Seeing that Xu Huang hesitated, he rubbed his hands together and urged, "Brother Xu, open the door, it's freezing cold today, and the mountain wind blows me to the point of freezing."

Xu Huang laughed dumbly, and instructed the head of the gate beside him, "Open the gate and leave a passage for one person to enter and exit. Pay attention to vigilance."

The leader was instructed, and beckoned several sergeants of the night vigil beside him to turn the winch on the wall together.

With a sour creaking sound, the Zhaimen opened a crack for one person to pass through.

Ku Lei rubbed his hands that were about to freeze again, and walked into the village with the guards behind him.

"But I'm freezing to death." Kushao jumped off the horse and muttered, "It's already June, why is it still so cold at night."

Just as Xu Huang was about to ask, he was pushed forward by Ku Sun, excused that the weather was too cold, so he went to Xu Huang’s tent to talk about it. Xu Huang saw that Ku Sun’s clothes were indeed a bit thin, so he had to stop the doubts in his heart, the two of them. They walked to the tent with their personal guards.

Xu Huang's main tent was not too far from the wall, and the two of them had already reached the tent after walking for a while.

"My lord Chang praised the strictness of the Meiji army. When I saw it today, it really lived up to its reputation. This camp is neatly arranged, and there are no sundries in the camp. The sergeant of the night watch should be arranged in place."

Kushang looked at the surrounding tents and praised, Xu Huang smiled and made a gesture of please, Kushang hurriedly got into the village, it seemed that he was indeed a little uncomfortable by the mountain wind, a guard He also followed him into the tent, while the other four stayed outside the tent.

Although Xu Huang was a little strange, he didn't say anything to stop him.

"Can the owner of Kushai Village tell me now why he came to my station in the middle of the night?"

Kushang took the pottery bowl handed over by Xu Huang's personal soldiers, and heard Xu Huang's question, Kushang took a sip of hot water from the pottery bowl, and then said: "Brother Xu, I really do I have some personal matters that I would like to discuss with Brother Xu, but..."

After a bitter pause, he glanced at the two guards standing by Xu Huang in the tent.

Xu Huang's complexion changed slightly, and he did not continue to speak, and the atmosphere in the tent began to become a little dull.

"You all step back first, the owner of Kushai Village is not an outsider, so there is no need to worry."

"promise."

The two guards in the tent didn't say much. After receiving Xu Huang's order, they exited the tent.

Xu Huang took off the shirt on his body, put it on the side of the cave, and said bitterly to the side sitting on the side: "There are no outsiders in the tent now, but it's okay to say that the village owner is bitter."

Kushang saw that Xu Huang had set up two personal guards, and his heart was slightly settled.

"In my opinion, Xu Xiong is rare in the world, and he manages the army strictly. Why should he succumb to Yang Feng's master?"

Xu Huang abruptly straightened up, pulled out half of the ring-headed knife around his waist, and shouted in a deep voice, "Could it be that you have already killed the moth thief?"

Kushang knew that Xu Huang was a little shaken now. After all, Xu Huang first agreed to talk to him privately, and then he didn't capture himself immediately and continued to fight the railway while it was hot.

"Yang Feng is moody, acts ruthless, and is surrounded by settlements, and the common people of the county and county have been murdered by him. Is such a person the master of Ming in Gongming's eyes?"

"Xu An has such an army in just a few months, the county cannot control it, and the court cannot ask for it."

"Yu Du, Gongming should know quite a bit. This person treats the people well. Chu Feiyan is a hero in Jizhou. The two have tens of thousands of troops but they worship Xu An. If Xu An has a flawed character, How can the two of them be willing to serve under his command?"

Seeing Xu Huang's eyes twinkling, Kushang stepped forward a little, and continued: "Now Xu An's army is several times stronger than Yang Feng's, and he has more elite soldiers and generals. Yang Feng is no more than a bandit, like a man's arm as a chariot. Don't give up on the dark!?"

Xu Huang's head was slightly lowered, and he didn't know what to think. Kushang was about to persuade him again, but he was pulled by the sleeve of the guard brought behind him, and the guard gently shook his head at him.

Now Xu Huang is in a state of turmoil, and speaking again, I am afraid it will backfire.
