The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 5 Draw a knife to help
On the road leading to Yecheng, Guo Jia and Xu Shu rode horses together, and all family matters were handed over to Xi Zhicai and Zuo Ci, which reassured the Guo family. It is rare in the world, Guo Jia is more at ease than anyone else when he sits at home with one article and one military.

Seeing that the city of Ye was already in sight, Guo Jia held the reins and frowned and watched the road ahead. Xu Shu had already noticed the situation ahead. A group of bandits were besieging the three gorgeous carriages. Many corpses had fallen on the side of the road, and blood was spilled all over the ground.

"Yuan Zhi, I've heard of you as a hero for a long time. Today, I happened to meet bandits and robbers. Why don't you let me see how your martial arts are?"

Xu Shu laughed, cupped his hands and said cheerfully: "Feng Xiao, forgive me, I am not as good as you in terms of writing, but in terms of martial arts, I will definitely beat you by more than one! A mere thief, wait for me to kill you in a moment."

After finishing speaking, Xu Shu drew his sword and rode his horse, and charged away, followed by Guo Jia.

There were about 50 bandits in that group, wearing commoner clothes, and the weapons in their hands were dilapidated. The siege of the carriage was only due to the large number of people, and there were less than ten guards guarding the carriage, but they were evenly matched.

Xu Shu and Guo Jia rode into the gangsters on horseback, and when they didn't expect them, they beheaded each of them to establish their prestige.

bang bang
Blood splattered in the air, and human heads fell in the air.

Guo Jia raised his sword, and said in a solemn and stern voice: "Yecheng's army is about to arrive, so you can catch them before you put your hands up!"

The gangsters were first shocked by the power of Guo Jia and Xu Shu to kill four people in the blink of an eye, and then when they heard that the officers and soldiers from Yecheng were coming, they turned pale with fright and ran for their lives in all directions.

Guo Jia and Xu Shu got off their horses and looked around. They found that most of the dead were young men in servant clothes. Presumably they were servants of the owners of the three gorgeous carriages.

"Fengxiao is quick-witted, but I can't do it." Xu Shu was ashamed. The experience of the young ranger made him want to fight just now, but he saw that Guo Jia's words made half a hundred thieves flee. This kind of ability is far better than killing people by force To be a hundred times higher.

Guo Jia smiled and said nothing, but saw the young man who was protecting the carriage in the middle and directing the guards to fend off the enemy just now came in front of him. He bowed solemnly to Guo Jia and Xu Shu, raised his head and said gratefully: "Thank you two brothers for saving your life, I Zhen Yu, did you not ask you two brothers?"

"Yingchuan Guo Jia."

"Xu Shu."

Guo Jia and Xu Shu clasped their hands in return. After that, Guo Jia seemed to remember something and asked, "Zhen Yu? Could it be that Xiongtai is from the Wuji Zhen family in Zhongshan?"

Zhen Yu was not surprised, the Zhen family is a well-known family in Hebei, so he replied modestly: "Exactly."

And Guo Jia was able to know the Zhen family for two reasons, one is that the Zhen family gave birth to a queen, Luoshen Zhen Mi.The second is that the Zhen family is very rich in Hebei.

But after thinking about it, Luoshen Zhen Mi is probably still in her mother's womb. In the face of the coming troubled times, the Zhen family must take refuge in one of the princes, otherwise Zhen Mi will not marry into the Yuan family and become Yuan Shao's daughter-in-law. Jia is not in the mood to chat with Zhen Yu here.

So Guo Jia immediately said: "Yecheng is close at hand, you can take refuge in the city as soon as possible, and besides, the casualties of Xiongtai are not small, there must be a lot of things that need to be taken care of. pay a visit to."

Xu Shu knew that they were here for Zhang Jiao, so he understood Guo Jia's approach, so he clasped his fist at Zhen Yu, got on his horse, and planned to rush to Yecheng with Guo Jia.

But Zhen Yu stood in front of the two horses, and said sincerely: "You two brothers have saved my life. If I leave like this, wouldn't I, Zhen Yu, become a villain who does not repay my favor? If the two of you don't Dislike, wait for me to rectify the family affairs, and we will go to the city to talk about it, so that I can thank you two."

Guo Jia didn't appreciate it, he shook his head and said: "Seeing injustice on the road, we draw our swords to help. We are not people who want to repay you. Today, we are destined to solve your brother's troubles, but it is just a matter of raising your hands. Don't take it to heart. We have important things to do, so it's inconvenient." Stay for a long time, don't live here, there will be a period later."

Zhen Yu had no choice but to get out of the way, watching the back of Guo Jia and Xu Shu leaving, and sighed unceasingly.

Judging from the scene of Guo Jia and Xu Shu riding their horses to kill them just now, the two are very skilled in martial arts, plus Guo Jia's talent to defraud the robbers with a single word, this person is brave and resourceful, but such a young hero has lost his heart. It's a pity to make friends.

"Brother, didn't the chivalrous man just say that the army of the Yecheng faction is coming soon? Why is there no shadow yet?" A pale young girl walked out of the carriage. World.

Zhen Yu shook his head with a wry smile and went to Zhen Jiang's side to explain: "Big sister, have you ever seen where those two young heroes came from?"

"To the south." Zhen Jiang blurted out, and then he was taken aback, a trace of sadness appeared on his pale jade face, and then said: "Yecheng is to the north, could it be, could it be..."

"Yes, they went to Yecheng, how could they know that Yecheng has a large army out of the city to suppress the bandits, then Guo Jia is scaring the bandits." Zhen Yu looked at the two young men who left in the dust, and felt even more worried. It's a pity.

"He's so smart." Zhen Jiang, a young girl in bloom, suddenly showed admiration, but when she saw the dead body by the road, her face paled and she retreated into the car.

Guo Jia and Xu Shu, who were about to enter Yecheng, got off their horses and walked. When they passed by, they saw refugees gathering in twos and threes outside the city, begging for help from passers-by.

"Feng Xiao, I see that the son of the Zhen family wanted to make friends with you, why did you leave in a hurry? Although you and I are here to see how Zhang Jiao is doing, it is not very urgent." Xu Shu asked his own Doubtful, in his mind, if he is not a person who is notorious, there is no reason to reject him. Besides, the son of the Zhen family is more polite than the flamboyant brothers he has seen before.

Guo Jia took out a copper coin from his body and handed it to the guards outside the city gate. He entered the city together with Xu Shu, explaining as he walked, "I'm afraid that the Zhen family is trying to solicit. Instead of refusing at that time, it's better to stay away from right and wrong."

The two led their horses and walked along the street, looking for an inn where they would stay overnight, but suddenly they saw a young girl selling herself to bury her father by the side of the road.

A girl in sackcloth and filial piety knelt on the side of the road, lying flat in front of a dead body covered by a straw mat. Although the thin girl was thin, she looked quite pretty from the looks of her face. Many onlookers gathered around her, discussing one after another.

The crowd of onlookers was separated by people. A luxuriously dressed boy came to the kneeling girl, looked him up and down, with a look of greed on his face, and said immediately: "Follow me back home, and from now on it will be my royal family. maid."

Immediately, two servants rushed out from behind Brother Young Master, and they stepped over the straw mat covering the corpse to pull up the girl in filial piety.

But the girl shrank back and hid, and said in a mournful voice: "Thank you for your kindness, young master. Please give me a hundred coins to bury my father. After my father is buried, I will serve you wholeheartedly."

"Hmph, I don't know what to do, just go home with me. Someone will take care of your father's funeral. Don't be ungrateful." The prince looked impatient, and waved his hand to signal the servant to go up and grab the girl back by force. at home.

The surrounding people all took a few steps back to get out of the way, with different expressions, such as regret, hatred, anger and so on.

This royal family is a big family in Yecheng, and they are used to being domineering and domineering on weekdays. The people dare not speak out when they are angry, for fear of causing trouble to their upper body.

铿

When the sword was unsheathed, everyone saw a silver light flashing in front of their eyes, and a young man put the sword across the neck of Young Master Wang.

Xu Shu saw that the young master of the Wang family was so domineering, so he became angry and took the young master of the Wang family hostage.

Guo Jia and Xu Shu saw the matter clearly from the beginning to the end, and the Wang family knew it well. If it is true that the young girl paid for the funeral of her father, then it is only natural for the young girl to enter the Wang family as a slave and maidservant, but this young man of the Wang family is afraid He wanted to rob the girl by force without paying any money. Xu Shu was fond of fighting injustices, and Guo Jia also hated bullying the weak. Of course, this injustice should be dealt with.

The master was held hostage, so the two servants naturally didn't dare to act rashly, so they retreated and looked at Xu Shu in panic three steps away, while the prince of the Wang family pretended to be calm, squinted at Xu Shu and said in a trembling voice "Who are you? Don't you know that I am the third son of the royal family in Yecheng? If you hurt me, you will die without a place to bury you."

Xu Shu had a stern face, snorted coldly, turned to Guo Jia and asked respectfully, "Master, how should we deal with this person?"

Guo Jia secretly smiled in his heart, but his face was calm and comprehensible, and he said: "Give Yecheng Wang family a face today and let him go."

Xu Shu received the order, put away his sword and returned it to its sheath, stepped back a few steps and walked behind Guo Jia, his face was as cold as frost.

This time, Young Master Wang's family was startled, and he looked at Guo Jia and Xu Shu.

The two are not luxuriously dressed, but they look talented. They are handsome and handsome, with a sword hanging from their waist and a scarf on their head. They have a subtle demeanor.

What are the identities of these two people?The young master of the Wang family was in doubt, so he asked cautiously: "I don't know the names of the two brothers?"

"Presumptuous! How can you inquire about my young master's name? Before my young master changes his mind, hurry up and get out." Xu Shu shouted coldly, and cast a cold look at Wang's young master.

At this time, Zhen Yu entered Ye City with his family's carriage and horses. Passing by here, he saw the present from Xu Shu drawing his sword. At this moment, Zhen Yu stepped forward, bowed to Guo Jia and said: "I don't know Why is brother here?"

Guo Jia was quite surprised by Zhen Yu's appearance, but seeing the smile in Zhen Yu's eyes, he knew that the other party knew that he was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. Since he didn't tell the truth, he wanted to help him, so he pretended to the end and held his head high. Indifferently said: "The road is not fair, take action and teach those rampant wealthy children a lesson."

"You!" The young master of the Wang family suddenly felt angry when he heard Guo Jia's tone, and he suppressed it when he saw Zhen Yu. better.

Zhen Yu and this young master of the Wang family are old acquaintances, but they don't communicate frequently, they are just casual acquaintances. Now he came to the young master of the Wang family and whispered: "Brother Wang, let's leave earlier."

The young master of the Wang family was even more shocked: Could it be that this person is quite fearful even by the Zhen family?
Unable to restrain his curiosity, Young Master Wang asked in a low voice, "Who is this son?"

Zhen Yu just shook his head and remained silent, and the young master of the Wang family was frightened out of his wits. He understood that Zhen Yu's shaking his head meant that Zhen Yu was telling him that the Wang family could not afford to mess with him.

After apologizing, the prince of the Wang family led his servants and left in a hurry.

When Young Master Wang disappeared, Zhen Yu, Guo Jia, and Xu Shu looked at each other and burst out laughing.

"Thank you, brother. Jia has one more thing to ask for your help. This girl sold her body to bury her father, and her filial piety is commendable. If it is convenient for you, brother, please lend a helping hand to fulfill her filial piety."

Guo Jia saluted Zhen Yu, and Zhen Yu hurriedly returned the gift, and without further ado, he asked his servants to take the money and gave it to the girl, and then said to Guo Jia: "Brother once said that we would meet again by fate, now you and I meet here Yecheng, please invite Xiongtai to come to my mansion for a talk, and I hope Xiongtai will not refuse."

Guo Jia was helpless, the other party had already talked about this, and it would not be enough to slap her face if she didn't give face, so she agreed.
