retaliate

Meng Lao Er is an authentic Shu native. For hundreds of years, his ancestors lived in Shu.The adventurous nature of the Shu people led him to lead his brothers out of the Shu land.

But after leaving the Shu land, he was a little numb. When they were in the Shu land, they made a living by collecting protection fees.When he arrived in Anzhou, he originally wanted to continue his old business, but Kete Niang's local villain had already taken over this business.

If it was changed to Shu, Meng Laoer would definitely fight those wicked young men and grab the territory.

But as soon as he showed some ferocious intentions, a small official arrested him and put him in prison, and he gave him a hard time to dispel all his thoughts.

Ge Laozi, the evil young man in Anzhou has cleared all the official roads, and the cross-river Qianglong can only lie on his stomach.

In a few days, the money that Meng Laoer brought was not much.He even planned to take his brothers to do coolies after a while.

As for begging, Meng Lao Er is a shameless person, with hands and feet, and will not do such things that humiliate his ancestors.

I didn't expect a nobleman from heaven, no, big brother from heaven.The eldest brother Liang Jing from back then actually came.

No, the clever second Meng immediately hugged his elder brother's thigh, begging for a way out.

Find a way out, follow the army.Meng Laoer and his brothers also had a taste of the military demeanor, and when they grow old, they can brag about it with their grandchildren.

Before the army was stranded at Yangling Pass, Meng Laoer had expected this ending a long time ago. He went to Liang Jing and said, "This pass cannot be fought unless it is a civil strife. If the gods come, they can only turn around."

Liang Jing deeply agreed, "Your Majesty has not only saved our brothers and sisters, but also given me the opportunity to make meritorious deeds. If I can't repay, I, Liang Jing, will dare to be called a bachelor in the future!"

"Brother is righteous!" Meng Laoer praised, and suddenly thought of something, "I used to protect a group of merchants in Yizhou to collect mountain goods with a few brothers. A merchant said that the tax collectors on the side of Yangling Pass It’s too ruthless, and you’ll be skinned after one pass. It would be great if you could find a way to go around. The local mountain people said that in the past, when there was chaos in Shu, many people were killed, and the ancestors fled, but Yangling Pass blocked it. There is no way to go out there. I took a risky detour, and finally found a small path to leave Yangling Pass."

Liang Jing's eyes lit up when he heard this, "You motherfucker didn't say it earlier!"

"It's just a legend, brother!" Meng Er Er scratched his head, "I don't know if it's true or not."

"Do you know the place?" Liang Jing asked.

"Say it's in the southwest."

"I have to try..." Liang Jing immediately went to see the emperor.

The emperor agreed and gave him more than a hundred soldiers to accompany him.

Liang Jing set off with his men, followed by Meng Laoer and the others.

"Brother Liang, I heard that you were the prime minister back then, how happy you are?" Second Meng said enviously, "I heard that the prime minister always eats in silver bowls."

"Who will use the golden bowl?" A younger brother cheered.

"Naturally the emperor!" Meng Er Er laughed.

"Bullshit!" Liang Jing smiled wryly, "Being a prime minister is trembling every day, how can I be happy hanging out with my brothers in Yizhou!"

"Then you still do it?" Meng Laoer felt that he couldn't help himself.

"If I were alone, I would be like a bird flying high in the sky. Is it rare for me to be a prime minister with feathers?" Liang Jing stared blankly, but then sighed: "But I still have relatives!"

He also has three younger sisters to look after.

The wife of Guo State, Liang Yue, and the emperor were not clear about it. Liang Jing knew about it, but what could he say?
Sister!Although you are a widow, you can't poach the corner of the imperial concubine's sister anyway.

He said such words, it can be seen that Liang Yue, who has seen the real wealth, would not listen, and fell headlong into the pear garden.

"That girl of yours... hey!" The second Meng also sighed, "I thought it was funny when I heard that a nobleman ran away with his son and was arrested and killed by the magistrate. ... Wealthy! It's good, but you have to be kind."

"At Luofengpo, I thought that I would definitely die, but I didn't expect His Majesty to send someone to save our brothers and sisters. Naturally, I am extremely grateful, and I will go through fire and water for His Majesty. Can you believe it?"

Liang Jing asked.

"My brother was a good man who generously donated money and made light of life and death. Of course we believed it." Meng's second child really admired Liang Jing. Paper is a drag.

"Your Majesty is in a difficult situation right now, so I will try my best to find a way for him, otherwise, I will be ashamed to death!"

Liang Jing patted his chest, "This time I will definitely find a golden road for my brothers."

"it is good!"

Liang Jing looked at those joyful young men, and for no reason, the remaining two younger sisters and the children came to mind.

Serving the emperor is out of loyalty.

But deep down, he had other considerations.

The group of them detoured along the mountains, and there were actually many people in the villages they passed by.

"Why don't you run away?"

Liang Jing went to ask questions in person.

When the villagers saw that they were following more than a hundred soldiers, they were a little scared, but they still said tremblingly: "The crops have just been harvested, so you can run away from the monk, but not from the temple!"

"Nonsense!" An old man stepped forward, "Your Majesty, don't listen to his nonsense. We have all heard of His Majesty's benevolence. Besides, the army has been here for a while, and no sergeant has blackmailed him. We are all relieved."

Meng Lao Er said in a low voice, "Brother, there is an old saying in Sichuan that bandits pass like a comb, and soldiers pass like a grate. Compared with bandits, the common people are more afraid of rebellious troops."

The tooth distance of the comb is large, and some people can be spared.And the grate is used to clean the hair, the teeth are so finely spaced that it will get out everything it passes by.

Liang Jing smiled and said: "Who knows if there is a mountain pass nearby that can be bypassed, just tell me...Meng Laoer."

Meng Laoer took out a money bag, which looked small, but when he opened it, there was a piece of silver inside.

"Whoever finds it, this silver is his."

Liang Jing saw the color of greed, but then it turned into regret.

They followed the mountains all the way to find the past, to the southwest.

"There is a mountain road here!"

The mountain road leads directly to the mountain, but this mountain road has been searched, and it is obvious that it cannot bypass Yangling Pass.

"Go in and see!"

A group of people entered the mountain.

……

On the top of Yangling Pass, guard Xiao Jun sneered as he watched the Death Battalion recede like a tide, and said, "Yeah, here, even if Yang Ni comes, we can only do nothing!"

When the Death Battalion retreated, Lan Jian scolded him, and then gave him wine and meat... This was authorized by the emperor.

"Eat, drink! Tomorrow, continue to attack!" Lan Jian gritted his teeth and said, "All dead, I'll go!"

According to his elder brother, he had already left a bad impression in the emperor's heart, and if he wanted to turn around, he had to be brave and not afraid of death.

The emperor didn't urge him, and sent multiple groups of people to search around, hoping to find a path.

……

The mountains in Shu are different from those in Guanzhong, and they have a lot of vegetation.But the mountains in Guanzhong look a little... How should I put it!Vegetation is there, but somewhat sparse.

It looked a little desolate.

According to the emperor's statement: Everyone in the world wanted to settle in Guanzhong. For thousands of years, all the mountains in Guanzhong were cut down for firewood.

Along the trail all the way forward, on the third day, the road was gone.

Liang Jing didn't give up, and ran forward for a while, and finally fell into a pit, and only by yelling did Meng Lao Er and the others be recruited.

Meng Lao Er cut off the vines and pulled him up, checked carefully, but fortunately he was fine.

This is an abandoned trap with sharpened wooden stakes underneath. Fortunately, after many years, the bottom of the trap is covered with various vegetation, including a few small trees.It was those small trees that saved Liang Jing.

"Thank you very much." Liang Jing bowed his hands to those small trees to express his gratitude.

Er Er Meng rubbed his chin, "It looks like this place has been abandoned for decades at least. Brother, there is no way ahead."

Liang Jing scratched his head, "Look around."

The crowd dispersed and searched left and right. The dense vegetation was like a flood, and there was no trace of human activities at all.

"Damn! You're here for nothing."

Liang Jing was a little unwilling. "You wait, I'll go in and take a look."

Meng Laoer was worried, so he followed, and the evil boys followed. The sergeants saw it and said, let's go together!

Everyone bypassed the trap and moved forward.

The trees are overgrown and vines are everywhere.Liang Jing asked several sergeants to cut a path in front with horizontal knives in turn.

After walking forward with difficulty for more than a hundred steps, Meng Laoer said out of breath, "Brother, there is really no way out."

Liang Jing took a closer look, but still couldn't find any trace of human activity, but a colorful snake slipped past quietly...

He patted his head, "Forget it... wait!"

The people who had just turned around heard the sound and turned back.

Liang Jing stared blankly ahead.

Pointing slowly, "What is that?"

Everyone looked forward through the gaps in the branches and vines.

Like a thatched cottage?

Liang Jing was excited and ran away.

The big snake was startled, and raised its head to take a bite.

But Liang Jing ran so fast that he didn't give it a chance.The people who followed drew their swords and charged, and the big snake felt like an earthquake, and slid into the depths of the forest without hesitation.

Liang Jing rushed out of the woods, seeing a vast expanse in front of him.

This is a flat land in the mountains, with dozens of acres of fields, which are just about to be harvested, and the piles in the field are still there.

On the right side, more than a dozen thatched cottages are scattered by a small stream.

Several children were playing by the stream, and when they saw them, they screamed, "Someone is coming!"

Immediately, more than a dozen men and women rushed out of those thatched huts.

The women screamed at the children.

"Cut the head and Kuole! Come back soon!"

The men wear long knives on their waists, bows and arrows in their hands, and their eyes are piercing.When they saw more than a hundred soldiers, they shouted, "Run!"

"Hey! Hey! Brother, don't run away!" Liang Jing didn't chase, but raised his hand and shouted: "We are here to give money! You are a bachelor, if you lie, you will be struck by lightning!"

The women prepare to run with their children, and the men die.It was said that a man raised his hand, and the women were holding or holding their children, watching Liang Jing and the others vigilantly.

"Where are you waiting?" a man asked.

"My little brother is from Yizhou." Liang Jing raised his hands, "Is it too difficult for me to come here?"

The man nodded, and pointed his bows at Liang Jing.

"Second Meng, money!" Liang Jing stretched out his hand, and Second Meng handed him the money bag.

"I came here to find a way!"

"What way?"

"If you find a way to bypass Yangling Pass, this silver is yours!"

The money bag was turned upside down, and the silver fell to the ground.

Glitter in the sun.

The man glanced at the silver.

"What are you waiting for?"

"To be honest, we are members of His Majesty Chang'an. You know about the false emperor when the army is attacking him?"

"I know! It is said that Li peeled off the skin of the Shu people. We went to sell some mountain products at the foot of the mountain, and we got a lot of money."

"Your Majesty is here to destroy the false emperor."

Liang Jing asked with a look of hope, "Is there a mountain road?"

The man came over and bent over to pick up the silver.

"Have!"
