Red Mansion: Bastards rule the roost

Chapter 467 The golden cicada escapes from its shell
Here, Nalandu had already arrived at the stables, led four horses out, and walked out of the camp.

"What are you doing?" The bandit guarding the stable finally woke up and shouted.

Nalan Tujirgulu said a few Jurchen words, which stunned several thieves.

One person said: "This man seems to be a Jurchen, a new entourage of Mr. Hu's family."

"Why is he taking the horse out in the middle of the night?"

"do not know."

"Hey, Wu Na man, why are you holding the horse?"

While Nalandu made gestures of feeding the horses, he said two words: "Night grass."

The bandits understood that horses would not be fat without night grass. Nowadays, there is a lot of food in the army, but forage is extremely scarce. The daily supply is rationed. There is no night grass to feed. This man is going to be taken out to let the horses gather grass. . This damn Jurchen really knows how to raise horses.

"Be careful, this is a war. What are you doing with such a good thing? When will it become useless? Just grab another good one. Just go and let it go." The men smiled and waved their hands.

Nalandu grinned, looking honest and honest, and led the horse away. After a long time, I brought the horse back. In the darkness, no one noticed that one was missing.

Cheng Lingsu blew the fire stick and threw it on the hay on the leader's bed. He knocked over the oil lamp and threw it on the bed. Then he stepped out and quickly sneaked back into Jia Cong's tent.

Jia Cong waited in the tent for a long time. Suddenly he saw a dark shadow coming in. He hugged her and said, "Lingsu, is it done?"

Cheng Lingsu pursed his lips and smiled, pointing outside.

Suddenly I heard many people yelling: "I'm in trouble, I'm in trouble, hurry up and save Mr. Zhao Si!"

A tent was already burning, like a huge torch, lighting up the night sky.

There was chaos in the camp.

Jia Cong listened carefully and said with a smile, "Quickly change your clothes."

After a while, I heard many people roaring again.

"There is an assassin! Something happened to Master Qian Er's family."

"Master Li San is dead."

"The big boss, the fourth boss Wu was killed!"

"There is an assassin, catch the assassin!"

Upon hearing that there were assassins, the entire camp exploded, and countless people raised torches and patrolled around.

Holy Mother White Lotus, He Tieniu, Ye Lizi, Eight Thousand Years Old, Li Laohu and others all came out and gathered in the open space between the camps. They all asked, "What happened?"

Jia Cong and others also looked like they had just woken up. They raised their tents and came out and said, "I heard there is an assassin? Could it be the court's eagle dog?"

"I don't know, how many brothers died." He Tieniu said solemnly.

Holy Mother White Lotus glanced at Jia Cong and the others, smiled coldly, and said nothing.

Seeing her expression, everyone became suspicious and looked at Jia Cong intentionally or unintentionally. He could do this with his skill.

Jia Cong said: "Okay, you doubt me again? What's the benefit of killing these people? If I were a member of the imperial court, wouldn't I know how to chop you all into pieces? To capture the thief first, capture the king. I do not understand?"

Then he looked at Holy Mother White Lotus and said sarcastically: "Don't look at me so sneakily. If I want to kill someone, I'll kill you first."

Our Lady of White Lotus was furious, but unable to refute, because what Jia Cong said made sense.

Everyone was dumbfounded, yes, what would be the benefit of killing a few bosses? He hurriedly comforted him and said, "Brother Hu is worrying too much. Why don't we think so? I just want to hear Brother You's opinion."

Jia Cong smiled coldly and said: "Don't make any noise, Nalan, let the eagle go out and have a look."

Nalan Tu nodded, whistled, and Hai Dongqing on his shoulder flapped his wings and flew away.

When I was young, I suddenly heard the sound of a horse's cry piercing the night sky on the official road to the west, and then the rapid sound of horse hooves disappeared in the distance.

"Over there!" everyone said in unison.

After a few breaths, Hai Dongqing came back, fanning Tie Yu, and landed on Nalan Tu's shoulder.

Nalan Tuji said a few words and pointed to the west. He had just used the Jurchen's unique skill of controlling a horse with an eagle, causing Hai Dongqing to fly over and grab the horse's butt that had been left by the roadside.

Because the reins are tied with a live buckle, the horse will loosen with a slight jerk and run away.

Jia Cong said: "The assassin is going over there. I'm going to chase him. Can someone in charge lend me a good horse?"

He Tieniu said hurriedly: "Brother, you can ride on my Tiehualiu." He ordered his men to fetch the horse.

"Thank you, brother. At daybreak, Hu will be able to retrieve the assassin's head." Jia Cong cupped his fists and said.

"Brother Hu is truly a hero." Everyone complimented him in unison.

"Don't chase after the poor enemy. The war is about to begin. It's better for Brother Hu to stay here. Don't forget that you still have to bet against the heroes of various families." The Holy Mother of White Lotus said.

Jia Cong got on his horse and muttered: "If Hu can't get the thief's head, how can he clear away the Virgin's suspicion of me? Don't worry, if there is no accident, I will definitely rush back before the city is broken!"

After saying that, he ignored her, took the torch, turned the horse's head, and galloped away to the west.

The Holy Mother of White Lotus could not stop him, and the bandit leaders did not doubt that he was there. They all held their hands in the distance and said: "Brother Hu, please be more careful."

"Got it!" Jia Cong's voice came from far away.

Liu Xianglian smiled and said: "Everyone, don't worry. This brother of mine has superb riding skills and extraordinary martial arts. The assassin will definitely not be able to escape."

"Of course we can trust Brother Hu's methods." The leader said with a smile.

Holy Mother White Lotus frowned and went back to the tent without saying anything else.

Jia Cong rode Tie Hualiu, holding a torch, and galloped all the way.

It is said to be galloping, because the road cannot be seen clearly at night and I dare not rush the horse, so it is faster than a person walking at a brisk pace.

Jia Cong estimated that the speed was twenty miles per hour, but it was enough. Qufu was only fifty or sixty miles away from Ziyang, the capital of Yanzhou, and it was all official roads. No matter how slow he ran, he could reach it in two hours.

After driving for more than half an hour, they met Yang Siniang who was encamped on the way to the village and was stopped by the thieves.

"Who is coming?!"

"It's me, Hu Fei!" Jia Cong shouted: "Assassins have appeared in the army, and several leaders have died. The leaders ordered me to report to Master Yang quickly and lead the way."

The bandits quickly moved out of the way and led him to see Yang Siniang.

Yang Siniang was sleeping in the camp without her clothes on. When she heard that Hu Fei was coming, she got busy to receive him.

Jia Cong glanced around and said, "Master Yang, I have a military background."

Yang Siniang nodded and motioned for Jia Cong to enter the tent.

"You guys go farther away. I'll have a few words with Brother Hu. Don't disturb the brothers for some trivial matters." "Yes." Yang Laosan and others hurriedly led the crowd to disperse.

"Siniang, after dawn, you can just restrain the team and wait here until my army comes," Jia Cong said.

"Well, are you going back?" Yang Siniang looked at Jia Cong's strange yet kind face, feeling slightly reluctant and melancholy.

After tonight, the man in front of him will resume his status as a noble gangster and general, but he will always be just a green forest woman.

"What's wrong?" Jia Cong asked, seeing her gloomy expression.

"It's nothing, it would be nice if you were Hu Fei all the time." Yang Siniang shook her head.

Jia Cong laughed dumbly and said: "Silly girl, what good does Hu Fei have? He wants money but not money, he wants power but not power, and it doesn't matter if he has good martial arts skills.

A woman ran away, a woman died, and another woman's father was her father-killing enemy. Do you think it's unlucky? "

"What did you say?" Yang Siniang was stunned, where to follow?
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Hu Fei is a friend of mine. I just borrowed his name this time."

Yang Siniang rolled her eyes at him and said, "Did Sister Lingsu also borrow the name of a friend's wife?"

"Exactly." Jia Cong smiled.

"Dirty! You can't bully your friends' wives, don't you understand?" Yang Siniang spat.

Jia Cong said with a bad smile: "That's what you people in the green forest think. It seems that we are friends and wives. You are welcome."

"You deserve to die. You shameless little thief." Yang Siniang was ashamed and annoyed, raising her hands to strike.

Jia Cong chuckled: "Just kidding, why are you so anxious? Hu Fei is my friend in dreams, not in real life."

Yang Siniang said angrily: "It's still the same as before, not serious."

"What happened before, so what happens now?" Jia Cong said with a smile.

Yang Siniang sighed and stopped talking to him about this embarrassing topic. She said softly: "I haven't seen you like you now. You are much taller and stronger than you were then. I'm afraid I won't recognize you." ”

Jia Cong pondered for a moment, and there was no need to pretend at this moment. He raised his hand to tear off the mask on his face. When he saw a basin of washing water in the tent, he lowered his head and started washing it without asking.

"Eh..." Yang Siniang wanted to greet him, but it was already too late.

"What?" Jia Cong raised his head, took the white cloth next to him and wiped his face.

Yang Siniang rolled her eyes at Jia Cong angrily and funnyly, and said, "You don't even ask, that's my footbath."

"..."

Jia Cong's expression froze and he looked at the white cloth in his hand: "Then this is..."

"Foot wipes."

"..." Jia Cong smiled awkwardly and said, "What's the point? I will drink your bath water next time. Otherwise, it cannot prove my love for you."

Yang Siniang sneered, glanced at him, and said, "Whore." Then she twisted a clean handkerchief over and carefully wiped the water droplets from his head and face.

Looking at the handsome face with clear outlines and sharp eyebrows and starry eyes in front of her, she could still vaguely see the shadow of a few years ago. Yang Siniang's face gradually turned red, and she turned away shyly. This little thief still looked that bad.

Jia Cong reached over, hugged her in his arms, and said with a smile, "Did you faint because of my handsomeness?"

"Fuck you. If you don't go do business, why are you messing around here?" Yang Siniang said angrily.

Jia Cong smiled and said: "Let's put aside the trivial matters of leading troops to fight. It was you who said you wanted to see my true face in Lushan. Now that you have seen it, are you satisfied with my husband?"

Yang Siniang's face turned redder and redder, and the redness spread to the roots of her ears. She stamped her feet and cursed: "Dirty bitch, just because you are so lustful, I am not satisfied with you a thousand times."

Jia Cong laughed, lifted her pretty chin, and kissed her.

For a long time, the lips are divided.

"It's time for you to go." Yang Siniang put her arm around Jia Cong's neck and said softly.

"Tomorrow, when you see my heroic posture, you will fall in love with me to death." Jia Cong chuckled, pinched her round and round buttocks hard, and turned around to leave.

asshole! Yang Siniang was almost suffocated by his pinch and hurriedly chased him out.

But they saw that Jia Cong had already galloped away on his horse.

"Siniang, why did Brother Hu change his appearance?" Yang Laosan whispered.

Yang Siniang blushed and said, "Brother Hu has changed his appearance."

"He seems to be running in the wrong direction. That's the way to Ziyang."

"That's right, he went trotting."

Yang Laosan had no choice but to shut up and think we were fools.

Yang Siniang waved her hand and said, "Just ask the brothers to stay where they are. Don't make a fuss."

"Yes." Yang Laosan nodded and winked at his wife.

Third Aunt Yang understood and followed Siniang into the tent, saying, "Siniang, please tell us what's going on, otherwise you guys won't know what's going on."

At this moment, Jia Cong has left safely, and Yang Siniang does not need to keep any secrets, because she said, "Hu Fei is Jia Cong."

ah? ! Aunt Yang was so shocked that she covered her mouth for fear of making a sound. After a while, she trembled: "He is Jia Cong and Jia Zilong? God, what is he doing here?"

"He is now the general appointed by the emperor to fight the rebellion. I have made an agreement with him. Let's surrender to him and forget about it. There will be benefits for everyone, and we can have a bright future."

Aunt Yang asked suspiciously: "I heard that Jia Cong kills people without blinking an eye. Is he so easy to talk to?"

Yang Siniang blushed and said, "Third Aunt, I have my own opinions. Don't worry. Am I so easy to deceive?"

Third Aunt Yang was also a visitor. Thinking of what happened in Zhangqiu a few days ago, and seeing Yang Siniang looking shy and happy, she still didn't understand. She smiled and said, "It's strange that Uncle Jia wants to seize the seal to propose marriage. This is a matter of public and private matters." .

Think about it, if the heavenly soldiers come to kill you, who would dare to compete with him to snatch Siniang? Who cares whether it's printed or not. "

"Third Aunt, what are you talking about? Siniang only has a public heart for the village, how can she be so unbearable." Yang Siniang said angrily.

Third Aunt Yang smiled and said: "I know, I know, although Si Niang only cares about the village, she should not delay the important things in her life. Now that your father is gone, we all hope that you will find a good man."

I think Uncle Jia is quite good. He is a high-ranking official at a young age, and he is handsome and capable. He is like a phoenix and a crow to the mud-legged man in the green forest and underworld.

If Si Niang can please him, what need do all the old and young in our village have to worry about? "

"Third aunt, I don't want it." Yang Siniang's face was hot, and she couldn't hold on anymore, so she pulled her aunt and said coquettishly.

"Okay, anyway, the third uncle and the third aunt are free to do as you please. You can do whatever you want." Third Aunt Yang patted her hand and smiled.
