Ming Dynasty man

Chapter 50 Mask
Although the two have a very good relationship in private, they are enemies on the training ground and never give in. It is common for the two teams to get bruised and swollen. It would be a strange thing if no one was injured during training one day.

Seeing doubts on the faces of the gangsters, and whispering to each other from time to time, Gao Qi looked serious and shouted: "What are you doing? Are there any rules anymore! Do you think it's almost Chinese New Year, so you can relax!"

Seeing that Gao Qi was angry, the gangsters immediately stopped talking, and the training ground was completely silent for a while.

Gao Qi glanced at the gangsters coldly, snorted and continued: "In the past, the training was done in small teams. After the training, each team competed with each other, and they all practiced their individual abilities. It's not bad. In the past few months, brothers It can be regarded as being able to see through the practice. From today onwards, everyone will practice as a team."

Speaking of this, Gao Qi suddenly smiled, and then continued: "There is good news for you, among our more than 400 people, there will be four captains of the Centuries, two bastards Liu Erlen and Chen Dahu I want to fight for the captain of the personal guard, so I won’t fight with you, so you guys have two less opponents, as long as you work hard, everyone has the opportunity to be the captain.”

If you want to be an official, you have to train well and perform well. Gao Qi is well aware of the virtues of these people, and after getting Li Jing's permission, he immediately made a big deal for these bandits.

And pointing out that Liu Erleng and Chen Dahu will be the captains of the personal guards is to tell the people present that those small teams will be the masters of the personal guards in the future.

Of course, the pro-guards will not let Gao Qi come for training.

In fact, Gao Qi did this only to confuse Guo Zhen and those traitors.

Sure enough, all the bandits were overjoyed when they heard this, and shouted in unison for the wisdom of the master.

However, there were also people who were clear-eyed and thought to themselves: "Liu Erlian and Chen Dahu won't come to fight, but Zhou Huhu from the third team and Zhang Chu from the seventh team are the hardcore masters, and the other is the confidant of the senior instructor. They must be taken away." There are only two captains in our turn. It is too difficult to stand out among more than 400 people.”

Gao Qi waved his hand, stopped the crowd's shouts, and then began to give orders, and groups of bandits started to go down the mountain under Gao Qi's instructions.

After Gao Qi led the bandits down the mountain, Li Jing immediately ordered someone to inform Shen Zheng to start action.

It is already the twelfth lunar month, approaching the end of the new year, and the weather is very cold. If the mountain is not facing a great crisis, Li Jing really does not want to let the old, weak, women and children on the mountain leave the mountain, but just in case, Li Jing still made a transfer. Decide.

Fortunately, Shen Zheng had notified these people in advance, and they were all prepared to keep out the cold.

But Li Jingshen knew that these people must not be allowed to stay in the wild for too long.

After everyone walked out of the house and slowly gathered together, Li Jing stood on a high ground and bowed deeply to everyone, and then said loudly: "Fathers and elders, Li Jing made everyone suffer, and here is my apology for everyone."

"What does the head of the family say? If there is no head of the house, how can we people have enough food and clothing like now. Besides, the head of the house is also thinking of us." An old man said.

Li Jing Dingqing saw that it was a craftsman who came from Zhengzhou with Zhao Shuangxi. As for Li Jing's name, he couldn't remember it.

Li Jingjing nodded, cupped his hands to the old man and said: "The old man knows the general situation, Li Jing is grateful in his heart, and will definitely try his best to repel the siege of officers and soldiers, so that everyone can go home as soon as possible."

"Hehe, the old man believes that the boss will be able to repel the officers and soldiers, but in order to prevent the boss from worrying about the future, the old man still has to leave." The old man laughed.

"Yes, yes! We all believe in the big boss. If we were not afraid of dragging the big boss, we would definitely not leave." One person said.

Then some people chattered to cheer up Li Jing.

Li Jing was moved in his heart, so he could only cup his fists and say. "Thanks to the good words of the elders, Li will definitely live up to expectations."

At this moment, Shen Zheng also came up, and said, "Okay! The big boss still has important arrangements, so don't delay the big boss's time, let's go! Dahu, lead the way!"

"Yes!" Chen Dahu hurriedly replied.

Under the command of Shen Zheng and Old Man Chen, all the villagers followed Chen Dahu and others to march northward.

Seeing these people moving slowly, Li Jing couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional.

After all, his own strength was too weak. Thousands of officers and soldiers had to siege him, and his brothers' families had to flee their hometowns for refuge. It seemed that he had to work hard to strengthen his own strength.

Li Jing's eyes swept over the crowd, and suddenly a figure appeared in front of him.

Li Jing felt his heart skip a beat, and looked intently, but it was Miss Shen.

Seeing Miss Shen walking with the help of the maid, Li Jing sighed in his heart, the mountain road was difficult, the carriage and sedan chair were useless, even this young lady had to walk by herself.

But Li Jing was taken aback immediately, Miss Shen is young, why does she need someone to help her when she walks?Is it a leg problem?
After a closer look, it didn't look like it. Suddenly Li Jing patted his head. It turned out that Li Jing had forgotten that this was the Ming Dynasty, and many women had their feet bound.

Foot binding, foot binding, this is how Chinese people's thoughts are entangled bit by bit.

Suddenly, Li Jing made a decision.

Li Jing walked quickly towards Miss Shen's family, and when he got close to Miss Shen, he waved his hand to signal Miss Shen to stop.

Since then, Shen Zheng has been busy instructing the villagers to transfer. Mrs. Shen didn't know what Li Jing wanted, and she didn't know what to do for a while.It took a while to bite the bullet and say, "I don't know what's going on with the big master?"

Hearing Mrs. Shen call himself the head of the family, Li Jing scratched his head, knowing that he was a little reckless.

Turning around and seeing Shen Zheng's figure, he had no choice but to say: "That's right, I saw Ling'ai walking very slowly, so I want to remind you."

Mrs. Shen thought: "Women with bound feet can't walk fast, everyone knows it, why should we remind them?"

But after all, Mrs. Shen didn't want to talk to Li Jing like this, she just said: "I also ask the head of the family for advice."

Li Jing thought: "What can I teach you?"

After thinking about it, Li Jing said: "Miss Shen must have bound her feet. I don't know why my aunt has the heart to let her daughter suffer."

Listening to Li Jing's words, there was a hint of blame, and Madam Shen understood what Li Jing meant.

Immediately sighed and said: "Nephew, how can girls from a family like us not have their feet bound? Wouldn't it be a joke if it was spread?"

"Your body is your own, and you only know when you suffer. How can you let your daughter suffer because you are afraid of being laughed at by others." Li Jing continued.

After a pause, he might feel that his tone was a little heavy, Li Jing slowed down and said: "Auntie, listen to me, let the lady let go of her feet, at her age, the bones still have room to grow, and if it is later, I am afraid that it will be inconvenient to walk for the rest of my life." gone."

After hearing Li Jing's words, Mrs. Shen was stunned.

Mrs. Shen had met Li Jing a few times, and she had some impressions of Li Jing. Shen Zheng occasionally talked about Li Jing with his wife at home, and also revealed a hint of the idea of ​​betrotting his daughter to Li Jing.But Li Jing's words were a bit shocking, and Mrs. Shen was a little shocked when she heard it.

Li Jing was talking to Mrs. Shen, and Miss Shen was right next to her. At first, she heard Li Jing say that she had trouble moving, and Shen Ying's face turned red. When she heard Li Jing asked her to let go of her feet, a strange look appeared in her eyes.

Seeing that Mrs. Shen didn't answer, Li Jing turned his head to look at Shen Ying and said, "Miss Shen, your feet are your own. No one can control you how you walk. If you want to be supported all your life, then pester you." , but if you want to walk freely, I advise you to let go of your feet now."

Shen Ying didn't expect that Li Jing would suddenly talk to her, and she was still asking embarrassing questions, so she blushed immediately and dared not answer.

Shen Ying didn't answer, but Li Jing didn't intend to let it go.

"Miss Shen, you have to think carefully. Do you want to be supported for the rest of your life? Or do you want to walk freely by yourself."

Listening to Li Jing's questioning again, Shen Ying suddenly mustered up her courage and said in a low voice, "I want to walk by myself."

"That's right! Let's go, find a room, and get rid of that annoying thing." Li Jing applauded and laughed.

After all, Li Jing was going to help Shen Ying go back to find the house.

Shen Ying didn't dare to let Li Jing help her, she hurriedly waved her hands, Li Jing then remembered that men and women could not kiss each other, and in ancient times, it was impossible to have physical contact with Miss Shen.

Shaking his head, Li Jing retracted his hand in embarrassment.

The maid next to her hurriedly helped Shen Ying turn around.

There are many houses at the foot of the mountain, and all of them are vacant at this time. The maid helped Shen Ying to find a nearby room and walked in.

Seeing that her daughter wanted to remove the foot wrap after listening to Li Jing's words, Mrs. Shen was shocked and wanted to stop her daughter, but felt that Li Jing's words seemed to make sense, and she was at a loss for a while, not knowing what to do.

When Ms. Shen entered the room, the family put down their luggage and packages and waited. Li Jing left without wanting to, and the people around him didn't dare to talk to him, which seemed a little awkward.

Li Jing looked around, and suddenly saw something in the packages of the Shen family.Li Jing took a closer look, but it was a mask, and the portrait on that mask was horrifying and frightening.

Li Jing felt strange, wondering why the Shen family made such a mask.

After thinking about it, Li Jing stepped forward and asked his family to take out the mask.

Seeing that Li Jing wanted to see the mask, the members of the Shen family didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly took it out and handed it to Li Jing.

Li Jing took it, looked at it carefully, and suddenly thought of something in his heart, and then smiled slightly on his face.

Not long after, Shen Ying came out of the room.

Seeing Shen Ying's light footsteps, Li Jing suddenly felt that something was wrong. How could he be able to walk by himself just after removing the foot wraps when he was walking just now?

Under normal circumstances, it should be more painful, and it will gradually recover after a period of adaptation.

Is it?

While Li Jing was thinking about it, Shen Ying walked up to her and blessed her lightly, then blushed and hurried to her mother.

Seeing Shen Ying's delicate face like a blooming flower, Li Jing was stunned.

At this time, the maid behind Shen Ying also stepped forward to give Li Jingfu a blessing, and Li Jing finally woke up.

Suddenly, the little maid blinked at Li Jing, smiled, and looked at Shen Ying's shoes.
