Han ride

Chapter 179
"Then what should we do now?" Gu Sanmazi looked at the young man nervously and asked.

"Retreat." The young man said with a smile: "I am a little curious about this person. Jiangyin City is so small, and the people inside are basically familiar to us. How can there be such a warrior, but now he just came out, brother Aren't you curious?"

"Bang!" There was another loud noise, and Gu Sanmazi only felt the battleship shaking for a while, and he couldn't help but fell to the ground, and the young man also swayed for a while.

"It hit the mast. It's all right now." The young man looked at the mast slowly falling from the sky, and fell into the river in an instant. He also smashed the boat next to him, and there were bursts of screams from above.

"Quickly retreat, quickly retreat." Gu Sanmazi was completely stunned.Li Xin shot three arrows, hitting the mast twice and the flag once.With such an arrow method, if the opponent wants to shoot himself, it is extremely easy.Although Gu Sanmazi is a brave person who is not afraid of death, he doesn't want to die in such a simple way.This place is more than 100 steps away from the city wall, and he was shot to death on his own giant ship, what a coward.Gu Sanmazi no longer wants to attack Jiangyin City.Immediately commanded the pirates to escape.

"Brother, don't worry, this person won't stay in Jiangyin for long. This person is not from Jiangyin. Brother, after this person leaves, we will attack Jiangyin again." The young man persuaded.

"That's right, he's definitely not from Jiangyin. He will definitely leave Jiangyin, my dear brother. Send someone ashore to keep an eye on that person. Once this person leaves, let us know immediately. Hmph! I can't help you on the city wall, but on the river, The world belongs to you and me." Gu Sanmazien stared fiercely at the distant city wall.

"Retreat, retreat." Watching hundreds of giant ships slowly leave the river, everyone on the city wall cheered and looked at Li Xin with strange eyes.

"In ancient times, there was Xue Rengui who fixed the Tianshan Mountain with three arrows, and now there is Mr. Mu who retreated thousands of soldiers with three arrows." Xue Yong couldn't help applauding and said loudly.

"Not bad, not bad." Zhang Cai said with a strange look on his face, "There are talents like Mr. Mu in the imperial court, so why worry about the country's prosperity."

"Don't dare to do it. Don't dare to do it." Li Xin glanced around, and then leaned into Zhang Cai's ear and said, "Master Zhang, you have retired after you have achieved success. After all, your lord is the magistrate of Linchuan County. It was a mistake to leave Linchuan privately. Now Appearing here, if the censor finds out about it, it may be disadvantageous to adults."

Zhang Cai was taken aback when he heard the words, then his complexion changed, he nodded, cupped his hands towards Li Xin, and said, "Thank you for reminding me, my lord, I will keep it in mind."

"My lord doesn't need to be like this. I have a boat that can help you get back to Linchuan as soon as possible. I don't know what your lord thinks?" Li Xin glanced at Zhang Cai meaningfully.Waiting for the right answer.

"This?" Zhang Cai hesitated.

"Meeting is fate. Just now I have to go north and pass through Jiangxi. What do you think?" Li Xin hurriedly said: "My lord, the river is not calm now, and my lord has no guards. Why don't you follow me?"

"What Mr. Mu said is true." He Mao on the side also persuaded: "The river is not very peaceful now, so if Gu Sanmazi is criss-crossing the river, if you have no one to guard you, you'd better be careful. Mr. Mu is very strong around you, my lord You can go with me. I can feel at ease while waiting."

"Forget it! If that's the case, I've got Mr. Lao." Zhang Cai could only nod his head.Li Xinxin was overjoyed, but he didn't show it on his face.

"My ship is about to arrive. My lord, I'll wait and go back to the restaurant." Seeing that Zhang Cai had agreed, Li Xin quickly persuaded him, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time."

"Everyone, the mountains are high and the waters are long, I'm leaving." Zhang Cai also knew that he couldn't stay here for too long, so he bowed his hands to everyone.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang." Everyone was a gentry from the Ming Dynasty, so they naturally understood the reason, and they all bowed their hands to Zhang Cai, and sent Zhang Cai to the restaurant.

"Yu'er, the boat is ready." In the restaurant, Xiao Yu had just come up to greet him, Li Xin asked impatiently.

"It's ready. There are three big ships, ready to go down the river." Xiao Yu hesitated and said quickly.

"Clean up quickly, let's leave quickly." Li Xin urged without thinking, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. I'm afraid these people will suspect me in the near future. There is still an important thing to do."

"Okay." Xiao Yu was taken aback for a moment, and quickly ordered someone to pack up and prepare to leave.Behind him, Zhang Cai was also packing his bags.Just as Li Xinsuo said, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. He came back to Taicang from Linchuan because of Zhang Pu. At this time, he appeared in Jiangyin, and he will be known by the imperial historians in Nanjing soon. If he does not leave , I am afraid it will be discovered.Although I disdain an official position, I don't want to be kicked out of the officialdom.

In less than a moment, Zhang Cai and others were escorted by Li Xin and headed towards the pier. Although a big battle had just passed, there were not many fights. Except for the mess everywhere, there were no casualties.Those business travelers soon gathered in the port.

"Mr. Mu, I didn't expect you, a scholar, to have such archery skills. I really didn't expect it!" Zhang Cai also rode on the horse, and said with a smile as he followed Li Xin.

"Mr. Zhang, you are wrong." Li Xin laughed loudly when he heard the words, and said, "What makes me great is not my archery skills, but my strength. In fact, my archery skills are not on the table at all. I just hit three arrows. The other party is also expected. Didn’t you notice it, sir? Gu Sanmazi led hundreds of giant ships, so many giant ships, if you shoot casually, you can hit something, sir, what do you think?”

Zhang Cai was taken aback when he heard the words, and then laughed out loud, pointing to Li Xin and said, "Mr. Mu is really interesting, so interesting. I, Zhang Cai, have heard many things, but Mr. Mu's words are very interesting."

"My lord, that is our merchant ship." Xiao Yu pointed to the three big ships approaching slowly in the distance, with a huge "Xiao" character on them.

"Master Zhang, let's go!" Li Xin looked at Zhang Cai with a smile and said, as long as Zhang Cai boarded the merchant ship, there might be another talent like Zhang Cai beside him.

"Okay, thank you very much, sir." Zhang Cai also nodded, he also knew Xiao Shi in Taicang, and when he saw Xiao Shi's ship coming, he felt relieved a lot.Immediately, they also followed Li Xin onto the first big ship, and Zhang Wu and others also escorted Mrs. Zhang onto the ship.The rest of the guards also boarded other merchant ships.After a while, I saw three ships slowly leaving the dock.

"Hey! What's going on, why did Mr. Zhang go east?" At this time, several elders on the city wall were sending Zhang Cai away, but they saw Zhang Cai walking along the river, actually going east, and they couldn't help being a little surprised. .

"Hehe, maybe Mr. Zhang has something to go back to Taicang. Hehe, but Mr. Zhang is Mr. Zhang. This time, we don't know when we can meet again." Xue Yong clapped his hands suddenly and said, "It's that Mr. Mu who looks gentle Gentle and gentle, with the appearance of a scholar, but never thought that archery is so powerful, with such courage, that he can pull a six-stone bow. It's really strange, how can such a person be so unknown."

"Brother Xue is very true. There are dozens of guards around this person, all of them are strong, aura, and murderous. I am afraid that he is not a simple person. Logically, we have heard of such a person before." He Mao also doubted.

"Forget it, let's go back! He's not a villain looking like that. What's more, it's Xiao Shi's ship. No matter what happens, Xiao Shi won't let such a person be unfavorable to Mr. Zhang." Xue Yong waved his hand Said.

What they didn't know was that at the moment on the merchant ship, Zhang Cai first felt that something was wrong, because he felt that the merchant ship was going down in an instant, and his expression changed involuntarily.

"Master Mu, why does this ship go eastward along the river?" How clever Zhang Cai was, he looked out and saw that it was going down the river, so he couldn't help glaring at Li Xin.

"Mr. Zhang, don't worry, there is no danger to your life here." Li Xin clapped his hands, and saw Xiao Yu ordered someone to serve the tea, and then stood behind Li Xin with a smile.

"Who are you?" Zhang Cai looked at Li Xin coldly and said.

"Sir, didn't you ask me last time?" Li Xin said with a smile, looked around and said, "Sir, I don't know, this time I came here to bring fifty guards, fighting along the way, and one brother died, but when I arrived Now there are 45 brothers here, do you know where the other brothers have gone?"

"Where?" Zhang Cai seemed to have thought of something, his expression changed, he looked at Li Xin and said, "Your people went to Linchuan?"

"Sir, you are really smart." Li Xin clapped his hands and laughed loudly, "My people have already gone to Linchuan, ready to pick up your young master."

"Who are you?" Zhang Cai suddenly thought of something, pointed to Li Xin and said, "You are not Mu Zixin, by the way, you are Li Xin, you are Li Xin? I should have thought that you are Li Xin, Hehe, Mu Zixin, isn’t it Li Xin and who is it?” At this moment, Zhang Cai suddenly recalled what he had asked before, and thought of Li Xin’s name, and finally lost his mind, and suddenly fell on the chair.

"That's right, I'm Li Xin, the commander of Yunzhongdu and the guerrilla general conferred by the court." Li Xin didn't hide anything, and said to Zhang Cai, "I didn't expect to meet Mr. Zhang here, so I decided to invite him to go here." Categorize."

"You?" Zhang Cai's complexion changed, followed by a burst of bitterness, and he said with a wry smile, "So, I also made a temporary decision to take General Li into custody? It seems that I, Zhang Cai, are such an unlucky ghost."

"Mr. is famous all over the world. Even if I don't meet him now, maybe in the future." Li Xin laughed loudly and said, "The literary style in the south of the Yangtze River is at its peak. When it comes to the collection of classics and history, there are many scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many talented people. Few, there are not many who can catch my eyes and let Li Xin risk revealing his identity, Mr. Zhang is not an ordinary sage, if at this time, I give up Mr., how can I, Li Xin, gain a foothold outside the customs?"

"General, haven't you heard the word that mighty can't be bent?" Zhang Cai turned his face away and said coldly.

"If the emperor is alive today, and the court officials are clean and bright, it is naturally a good choice for someone like sir to be an official, but now, do you think the court officials are clean and bright at this time?" Li Xin asked with a smile.
