A flower of the Republic of China

Chapter 6

1,

Yang Jing'an knew that if the government intervened, Du Wenjing would never let him go, so he reported to the Du family, but was scolded by Du Wenjing.After scolding, we still need to find a way. When officers and soldiers attack the stronghold, there will be casualties. Zhong Han can't let it go. I'm afraid that the debt will be settled on the Qinggang. If Wen Qingyun finds a chance to escape, they will be in big trouble.

Yang Jing'an said: "At this point, can she come back alive?"

Du Wenjing looked at him coldly, "Otherwise, you brother will go out in person, and I still have a quick gun at home, which I can borrow from you. To be honest, I didn't agree with this at the beginning. It was you who insisted on revenge. Now, it's okay to mess with me." Such a big trouble, if you don't take care of it, do you still expect me to wipe your ass?"

Yang Jing'an took a breath, and the color of his face changed, but unfortunately he could only lower his head under the eaves of others. "Brother Wen Jing, now is not the time to be angry. I wonder if I can bother Second Auntie to come forward and let Zhong Han do it directly?"

The second aunt had listened carefully in the room, and when she saw herself being mentioned, she came out from behind the curtain and said with a long face, "Butler Yang said it so lightly, who is Zhong Han, willing to listen to what I say casually." Saying West is West? Greenwood has the morality of Greenwood. It is already a big face for him to help us kidnap people. Now that we have made a mistake, why should he take the risk for us? It really annoys Master Shen. Get some powerful guys. Blow up his Zhongjiazhai..."

Du Wenjing's eyes lit up, blowing up the Zhongjiazhai was indeed an unavoidable solution, but this time it must be safe.Now Du Wenjing made an arrangement, Yang Jingan went to the government to persuade Chen Zongyong to use the cannon in red, while the second concubine immediately went to the Green Gang, found a contact person, and asked them to keep an eye on Wen Qingyun in Zhongjiazhai. Cannon fire is the best, if the life is too big and the cannon fire can't kill her, then instigate Zhong Han to kill her to sacrifice the flag.If Zhong Han doesn't accept this, the last solution is to let the insiders wait for the opportunity to do it, and then put the blame on Zhong Han.In this way, even if Wen Qingyun has great abilities, she can only die.

Yang Jing'an left Du's house, already full of regrets.This muddy water is getting deeper and deeper, and it is impossible to get out, so I can only continue to move forward involuntarily, take one step at a time.

Chen Zongyong was angry in the Yamen.The ineffectiveness of the officers and soldiers was within his expectations. The results of the suppression of bandits over the years are here.But it's too embarrassing to let the bandits kill the shit in one round.

The chief general, Rong Xiang, even lost his horse, and ran back to the city in a hurry, complaining all the time, the night was dark, the wind was high, the forest was dense, the bandits were brutal...

"Useless things." Chen Zongyong looked at Rong Xiang contemptuously, and said to Yang Jing'an, "No matter how cruel the bandits are, they are just a bunch of mobs. You are a majestic martial artist, what use is the court to support you? What face do you have?" To see Mrs. Shen?"

Rong Xiang was speechless, but it was Yang Jing'an who defended him, "Master Chen, I don't think General Rong can be blamed for this matter. To deal with the bandits, one must be cautious about comforting the hostages and not use his hands and feet. Those gangsters took advantage of the loophole."

Rong Xiang found a savior, raised his head and said, "Yes, when two armies confront each other, the most taboo is to be timid. How can there be no reason not to lose? If you follow me, first fire a round of artillery to blow up his bandit den."

Chen Zongyong scolded, "Stupid, if you hurt the young lady, can you bear the responsibility?"

Seizing the opportunity, Yang Jing'an took a step forward and said, "Master Chen, the villain dares to say that this method is feasible!"

Chen Zongyong was stunned, and even Rong Xiang raised his head, he was just talking nonsense just now, to justify himself, who would think anyone would take it seriously?
Yang Jing'an said, "Huaguoshan has been plagued by bandits for many years. As far as I know, your exams have been implicated in recent years, sir, and you have been unable to get promoted. If you wipe them out in one go, not only will you have a bright future, but also the people of Haizhou. I will also be grateful for your kindness. Isn't it a good thing to have the best of both worlds?"

Chen Zongyong's mind turned quickly, and he knew there must be some reason, but Rong Xiang was slow, and blurted out, "What should I do if I hurt someone?"

Yang Jing'an said, "I also hope that the young lady is safe and sound, but at this time, the bandits probably tore up the ticket. Now I just hope that the adults can avenge my young lady so that she will not die in vain." Seeing that Chen Zongyong was still hesitating, He whispered, "This is also what my wife means. You just have to let it go. No matter what happens, you won't be implicated in adults."

When the officers and soldiers approached at night, they killed the first sentry on the outer perimeter. Before he died, the brother who was on guard picked up a stone and hit the bird's nest in the tree, which startled the birds in the forest and just returned to the cave to prepare for rest. Zhong Han.Years of falling grass had already trained him to be vigilant that ordinary people didn't have. Hearing the noise coming from the woods, he quickly summoned his brothers and asked Xiu Gu to hide Wen Qingyun in a hidden cave.Rao Rongxiang's cavalry moved swiftly and rushed up to eighteen rounds, facing Zhongjiazhai's sharpened blades.

From the gap in the cave, Wen Qingyun saw a scene she had never seen before in her life. There were muskets and knives, feather arrows and spears everywhere, and the flames were burning, illuminating the fuzzy flesh and blood splashed out.The sound of fighting mixed with the smell of blood in the air, forcing people to suffocate.She wanted to close her eyes to avoid all this, but it was as if someone had put a holding spell on her, and she couldn't even move her eyelids.

She saw the strong man who tied her up entangled with three officers and soldiers, and someone was aiming a musket not far away.She could see so clearly that she could have sounded a warning, or he wouldn't have been hurt that way.But she didn't, she was in a daze, like a lifeless puppet.She saw the bullet fly past and hit the thigh, and the man fell to the ground, and Xiu Gu, who was beside her, rushed out like crazy, hugged him and yelled.In the chaos, who would care about a woman's tears, who would take a second look at the wounded who fell to the ground, no matter whether it was an enemy or a friend.They only saw the knives and guns in front of them, and they just wanted to kill one after another.

Zhong Han was in the crowd, holding two one-foot-long daggers and swinging them left and right. His body was covered with blood. The firelight and blood color dyed him into a red man, like a Vajra Rakshasa in a temple. Against the backdrop of the sky-high red, it also became as red as blood, and the surrounding white was covered with bloodshot eyes, as it was written in the scriptures.His ferocity made all those who tried to approach him frightened, and fled involuntarily.Only now did Wen Qingyun see that Zhong Han's erratic footsteps had a straight goal, Rong Xiang on the horse.Rong Xiang was frightened out of his wits long ago, and because of his status as the chief general, he couldn't cry for his father and mother.Seeing Zhong Han approaching gradually, he couldn't even ride a horse, rolled to the ground, and crawled out with all his strength, and loyal subordinates rushed up to stop Zhong Han, in exchange for him to escape.

The general ran away, the officers and soldiers fled, and Zhongjiazhai was completely silent.No one spoke, and there was no need for anyone to command. Everyone was doing their own work, cleaning the battlefield, and helping the wounded.Wen Qingyun was forgotten, and even she herself did not expect to come out of the hidden hole.In the end, it was Zhong Han who thought of her, glanced around, and landed on her, calling back her seven souls and six souls.

He looked at the scorched land of Zhongjiazhai and said, "My favor is over. Now you owe me!"

Wen Qingyun understood what he meant, and her life was saved.After this battle, he didn't owe the Green Gang anything, and he paid off the debt with the blood of himself and his brothers.He wants revenge now, and she has become his bargaining chip and weapon.He can use her to seek justice, and he can use her to comfort the wounded and undead.

Zhong Han walked into one cave after another with a sullen face, and came out with a sullen face without saying a word.Those naked wounds stung his eyes and burned his blood.He regretted so much that he shouldn't trust the Qing Gang easily and hurt the brothers in the village.Don't worry, there will be no trouble.The guarantees made by the members of the Youth Gang are all nonsense, saying that it is not convenient for them to come forward, because they are afraid of getting into trouble, so they ask him to be taken advantage of?

Xiugu and Feng Laojiu were busy taking care of the wounded. Feng Laojiu had studied bruises before falling into the grass and acted as a doctor, while Xiugu was helping. Unfortunately, there were not many proprietary medicines in the stockade, and some people had injured muscles and bones, so they had to be bandaged. , to wait until dawn to collect herbs in the mountains.Fortunately there were also some opium ointments to relieve the pain of the worst wounded.The most seriously injured was Xiugu's fiancé, Zhu Hu, who was also carrying Wen Qingyun up the mountain. He was shot by a musket on the inside of his right thigh.Feng Laojiu didn't let Xiugu come in to take a look, and first wrapped the wound with cotton cloth. Zhu Hu let out a scream like a wolf, and then handed over the burnt opium paste. He took a look and turned his head away.His parents were ruined because of smoking opium and were forced to death by creditors. He swore he would never touch this stuff in his life.Feng Laojiu didn't persuade much, got up and went out of the cave, looked up and saw Zhong Han, shook his head and sighed.

"There's no way to save him, and he's useless if he can save his life. Poor girl Xiu, she's going to be a widow at such a young age." Feng Laojiu really felt sorry for Zhu Hu, sighed enough, and asked, "What's next, big boss?" What to do? In another hour or so, the Green Gang will come to pick up people."

Zhong Han looked at the undulating mountains in front of him, and a ray of morning light added a golden border to each mountain, which was extraordinarily magnificent.Every time he was upset and overwhelmed, he would come to visit the mountain, and the answer he was looking for was hidden in the vastness that had been forged for thousands of years.He said coldly, "They can't take them away. Officers and soldiers will come again, and she will be in our hands at that time, and she can still be of great use. Lao Jiu, tell the brothers to be smart, divide into three shifts, and take turns watching at each intersection. If you see officers and soldiers, report immediately. Now you take some people and send the wounded to Master Ci Ning in Zizhu Temple through the cableway at the back, and she will help take care of them. You also stay there, and no one is allowed to come back without my order. I heard ?"

Zhong Han's intuition saved Zhongjiazhai again. Not long after Feng Laojiu and his group left, the brothers patrolling the mountains came to report that Rong Xiang arrived at Jiulonghui with a dozen red cannons. There is a cliff, but the distance is less than one mile. People on both sides can stand and shout to each other on weekdays, and they are within the range of the artillery.He frowned, still feeling a little lucky in his heart, Wen Qingyun was still on the mountain, it was expected that the officers and soldiers were just bluffing and would not act rashly.He ordered the brothers who were patrolling the mountain outside not to go back to the village, but to find a hidden place in the mountain, and the others entered the Loyalty Hall together.There is a secret road under the Loyalty Hall. The living path reserved when it was built can lead to the back mountain. Even if Rong Xiang really bombed the Zhongjiazhai and blocked them in the cave, he could still lead people out and kill another Return the carbine and let those damned officers and soldiers taste the taste of being dumpling stuffing.

Xiugu originally escorted the wounded down the mountain with Feng Laojiu, but just at the side of the cableway, Zhu Hu said that he didn't want to be a burden to others, let alone implicate her.After speaking, he rolled off the cliff from the stretcher.She stretched out her hand to grab it, only grabbing a piece of the skirt.She didn't leave, but returned to Zhongjiazhai, she wanted to avenge him.She was going to fight to the death with the officers and soldiers, but when she was sharpening her knife, she heard the people next to her say that that woman is a funeral star, and the good Zhongjiazhai will be destroyed in her hands.The speaker was called Hu Hai, and he was always on good terms with Zhu Hu.Seeing Aunt Xiu looking over, she sighed again, pity my Brother Du, for taking her life for nothing.

Wen Qingyun saw Xiugu's face that became numb due to excessive sadness, and she already understood a little bit in her heart.When Xiugu pulled out the saber, she only had time to close her eyes, but the saber did not come down.Opening his eyes, it turned out that the handle of the knife had been firmly held by Zhong Han.

Xiu Gu yelled like crazy, "Brother Zhong, Zuo Hu is dead! You asked me to kill her to avenge Zuo Hu!"

Zhong Han took the knife away, his voice was as cold as ice, "Now is not the time, her life is still useful."

Her life is useful now, but after it is used, it is still a dead end.

When is "the time"?Xiu Gu didn't understand, and she had to be obedient if she didn't understand. She understood Zhong Han's temper, and spitting was a nail.No one dared to violate it for so many years.Letting go of the knife, Xiugu squatted on the ground and wailed loudly. With one hand, she pulled off the emerald dragon head hairpin on her head, threw it on the ground, and trampled it to pieces.Apart from a wry smile, Wen Qingyun didn't know how else to respond.

Zhong Han said softly, "Don't cry, you will be my real sister from now on."

3,

Xiugu hides in the deepest cave with Wen Qingyun on her back, and the entrance to the secret passage is on the stone wall behind her.Even here, you can still hear the sound of guns exploding like thunder outside.Xiugu stood far away, holding a knife tightly in her hand. It was the knife left by Zuo Hu, and there were still blood stains on it from last night's fight.Cannons roared outside, but Wen Qingyun could still hear the cursing in her heart, you owe me your life, and you have to pay for it.

Now Wen Qingyun felt terrified, and there was a scene of blood flying all over her eyes.They will not let her go, she is the best sacrifice to avenge the dead and wounded accomplices.Fear is a strange feeling, the more it is suppressed, the more it grows like grass after the rain, and it can cover the whole body in a blink of an eye.Let the heart gradually cool down, let the mind go blank, make the hands and feet tremble, and finally make you collapse.Wen Qingyun is on the verge of collapse, she is not reconciled, she is just married, has not yet enjoyed the pleasures of the boudoir, has an elderly father and young siblings, they need her to take care of them.There are many things she wants to do but haven't done yet, there are many books she hasn't finished reading in time, and she can't die.

you owe me.The entire Zhongjiazhai shouted after being turned into ruins, you owe us.

Wen Qingyun lowered her head, wrapped her arms around her body, and slowly reached the wall.The sound of the cannon suddenly stopped. It turns out that the silence of the cannon is as frightening as the roar of the cannon, because it is known that there will be a round of more violent cannon fire after a short period of silence.

Xiu Gu said coldly, "It seems that we are not the only ones who miss you to death."

Fear makes wisdom escape, and she can only think of such a simple fact if others say it.Wen Qingyun licked her chapped lips, dug her nails into her flesh hard, and used the pain to force herself to wake up.

They want her dead.They didn't even have the patience to wait for Zhong Han to hand over her. They wished that she would die in the artillery fire, her body would be smashed to pieces, and she would die without a place to bury her.They asked Zhongjiazhai to be buried with her, so that even if she went to hell, she would not live in peace.Fear ignited the hatred. She wanted to take revenge, seek revenge from the Du family, and seek revenge from the spies who betrayed her. She must not die.

Sometimes life is not controlled by people, and death is even more difficult.While Wen Qingyun was trying his best to find a way out, Hu Hai was also thinking about how to fulfill Gang Leader Liu's order and get rid of this woman, so that he could escape this place where he eats chaff and swallow vegetables as soon as possible, and enjoy the blessings in the city .

Hu Hai is the inside line of the Green Gang placed in Zhongjiazhai.Back then when Gang Leader Liu rescued Zhong Han, he saw that he was a man who would surely accomplish great things, so he deliberately supported him so that he could become a force that the Green Gang could use.Worried that Zhong Han's wings were stiff and disobedient, he sent Hu Hai over to monitor Zhong Han and Zhongjiazhai. If there was any change, the Green Gang would know immediately.

In the morning, the Qing Gang came to ask for someone, but he didn't want to leave, and was humiliated by Zhong Han. The person who came was not angry, and it was all expected. He turned a corner and slipped a note to Hu Hai, telling him to make sure Wen Qingyun died on the mountain, that's why Hu Hai deliberately said those words in front of Xiu Gu, but it's a pity that Cheng Yaojin came out and failed.

It is best to take advantage of the chaos to kill. When the second round of gunfire rang out, Hu Hai slipped into the cave where Wen Qingyun was imprisoned, and told Xiugu Zhong Han to call her from the front. , then walked away.Wen Qingyun didn't think much about it, she looked up, saw Hu Hai's naked and frivolous eyes, felt disgusted in her heart, and turned her head away.

Ever since Wen Qingyun was tied up to the mountain yesterday, Hu Hai hadn't seen her face clearly, but now that he saw her, he couldn't help thinking wildly.No wonder Zhong Han wanted to stop someone from killing her, such a handsome little lady, I'm afraid he wouldn't be willing to kill her.It's a pity, Hu Hai sighed frivolously, it's not that my brother doesn't know how to pity and cherish jade, it's really hard to do, don't blame my brother...

Wen Qingyun heard him chanting words, turned her head unconsciously, and saw him approaching step by step, holding a dagger in his hand.

"What are you going to do?"

"What do you think?" Hu Hai giggled, the sound of the guns was the best cover, he was not afraid of her calling for help, even if his throat was broken, no one would hear him.

Wen Qingyun's whole body was pressed against the stone wall, Hu Hai pushed her closer, and the hot air from his mouth sprayed on her face, making her dizzy for a while.

"Little lady, you are so beautiful." Hu Hai sighed again, and touched Wen Qingyun's cheek with his fingertips. The tender feeling of the tentacles made his heart tremble. "My little lady, my brother loves you first." Hu Hai brought his mouth closer, searching for Wen Qingyun's lips.

Wen Qingyun struggled hard, turned her head back and forth, groped around the stone wall with her hands, and grabbed the copper oil lamp placed in the stone nest. Regardless of the hot hands, she grabbed it tightly and smashed it to the back of the unscrupulous head.

Hu Hai let out an "uh" sound from his throat, and fell to the ground. Wen Qingyun was afraid that he would get up again, so she grabbed the oil lamp and continued to smash it hard, two times and three times, until the person lying on the ground twitched like a fish thrown onto the shore. , the last struggle before death.

When Zhong Han rushed over with Xiu Gu, Hu Hai was already dead, and Wen Qingyun was still holding the oil lamp in her hand, and she was also in a daze.

Xiugu screamed loudly, "She killed, she killed Hu Hai!"

Wen Qingyun raised her head in a daze, "Yes, I killed him, I killed him, I actually killed someone... No, he wanted to kill me, and he... I didn't mean to, I didn't intend to kill him !"

Zhong Han could understand what she didn't say.He had already seen that Hu Hai was wrong, and he didn't tell the truth all these years, because he was magnanimous and saved face for the Green Gang.Just now, Xiugu ran to him and said that Hu Hai had arrived in the cave. He was afraid of something, so he hurriedly arranged for people to come over, but he was a step too late.

Wen Qingyun couldn't even stand still, shaking into a ball like chaff.She killed people, she was a murderer!How could she kill someone, it must be fake, she was dreaming.There was a strange expression on her face, she didn't know whether she was crying or laughing.It fell into Zhong Han's eyes, in exchange for a sigh that no one could hear.He knows how she feels now, when he killed the first person back then, he also felt a similar feeling, the world is vast, human life is like grass, life and death are so close together that you can't tell whether you are alive or dead.

"Let's go." Zhong Han took Xiugu away to prevent her from getting murderous again, "We can't hold this place anymore, we are going to retreat."

"What about her?" Xiu Gu felt that Zhong Han was crazy, isn't it the right time?
"Take her along." Zhong Han finished speaking briefly, his eyes lingering on Wen Qingyun for a moment, "I don't blame her for this matter."

This was the only time in Wen Qingyun's life that she killed someone, and it was also a memory she would never forget in her entire life.In the following years, every time she saw someone die, she would think of the situation that day, and had an illusion in her heart that the fallen person was still alive, and she had died many times standing up.

4,

The entrance of the cave was blown down, and Zhong Han led his people into the secret passage.Silence and hatred turned into a powerful force, turning the bandits into a well-trained army, automatically lined up, one after another, silently and orderly, walking through the dark, rugged and narrow mountain roads.

Wen Qingyun followed Zhong Han with her hands tied, and Xiugu stood next to her, pushing her from time to time to make her walk faster.This silence made her gradually calm down.Some people are dead, he deserves to die, and the rest will live.She has to live, once a thought arises, it will grow wildly like grass in spring, living should have the footsteps of a living person, and walking forward will be much more stable.

After walking for about a stick of incense, Zhong Han, who was at the head, saw the light coming from the entrance of the cave, and heard the unique singing of birds and beasts in the mountains and forests.This familiar voice let him know that they were still safe, and he was slightly relieved that the officers and soldiers hadn't found them here.After another narrow path on the edge of the cliff, they can reunite with the brothers scattered in the forest, and they can find a way to kill the officers and soldiers and return their carbines.

A stranger's shout and a few incoherent footsteps suddenly came from the entrance of the cave, "There seems to be a cave here..."

Zhong Han stopped and asked everyone to keep quiet.This should be the stragglers who were ordered to search the mountain, or a group of people who were eager to do meritorious service and escaped from the main force, accidentally discovered this cave.Will they treat this place as an ordinary small cave, like other caves all over Huaguo Mountain, and leave after just a few glances?Anyway, the entrance of the cave is winding and covered with withered grass, it is difficult for ordinary people to see its penetration and depth.

They were really deceived by their own eyes, "One hole can't hide two people, let's go away." The people outside yelled and hummed a little song easily.

The people in the team heard and relaxed their vigilance. Someone sneezed untimely, and the atmosphere became tense.

"There are people here!" The soldiers who left turned around again. They were not stupid, and they knew that those who could hide in the cave were definitely not good people. Based on the few of them, they might not be able to make things happen. Some people suggested to report to Rong Xiang and adjust a cannon Come here, regardless of whether it is a tiger or a bandit hiding in it, it will kill you.Others said that it would be better to set fire and smoke, and when the people inside couldn't stand it and ran out, they aimed at the entrance of the cave and fired one shot at a time.Disagreement, actually quarreled.

Zhong Han understood that he could only fight desperately at this moment.He clenched the dagger in his hand, and calculated how many steps it would take to jump out of the hole. If he moved fast enough and was lucky enough, he might be able to evade the muskets, kill those soldiers, and lead everyone to escape. .

"No. If you go out like this, you are going to die." Wen Qingyun could see the message revealed by his tense body, as well as the glimmer of life hidden in the dangerous situation in front of him.Belongs to her vitality. "It's better to let me go."

"You?" Xiu Gu sneered behind her, "Ask you to lead soldiers to kill us?"

Wen Qingyun ignored the sarcasm in the conversation, and said her plan, "I will lure them away. The general is not here, and the soldiers only say that they are here to save people. If I show up, I might be able to deceive them. In this way, you and Your men are safe."

Zhong Han turned around and stared at Wen Qingyun, "Why should I believe you?"

Wen Qingyun looked over, frankly and honestly, "Because I owe you this."

When Zhong Han was thinking about it, Xiugu gritted her teeth and said, "Brother Zhong, she killed our people and kept her to avenge Zuo Huhu! I'll go and distract the officers and soldiers, and I'll die with them at worst."

Wen Qingyun looked at Xiugu with calm eyes, "It's not the time to say that we will die together, and you don't want any more people to be killed or injured. No matter who of you goes out, the result will be the same. They will definitely guess that there are accomplices here. Believe me Once, if I lie to you, let me die!"

Zhong Han continued to stare at her, his eyes began to struggle.

Wen Qingyun turned around and said, "Otherwise, you use me as a shield, isn't that okay?"

Zhong Han didn't speak, and swung his sword to cut off the rope binding Wen Qingyun, "I believe in you once, it's best not to disappoint me. Otherwise, I promise you won't be the only one who dies."

Wen Qingyun took a deep breath, walked to the front, and said loudly: "Is there anyone outside? I'm the young lady of the Shen family, and I'm coming out now. Don't set fire."

The soldiers at the entrance of the cave froze for a moment, all of them pricked up their ears and raised their muskets.

"I'm Wen Qingyun, are you here to save me?" She walked around the boulder, showing a white arm and waving, "You're finally here..."

The soldiers believed everything Wen Qingyun said. She escaped from Zhongjiazhai in the middle of the night last night, lost her way in the mountains, and was afraid of wild animals, so she hid in the cave, tired and hungry, and fell asleep in a daze. I was woken up by their arguing just now, and only then did I know that I was rescued.

"You are all my benefactors. I beg you to send me home immediately. When I get home, I will definitely reward you all." Wen Qingyun was moved as she spoke, and tears welled up. Both the love and the tears were true, because she survived.

Even if the soldiers had doubts, they didn't want to investigate further. They would say that money is not as important as suppressing bandits.Wen Qingyun's pale face and crumbling body aroused their compassion, and they scrambled to support her and walked down the mountain.

Wen Qingyun didn't look back all the way, when he reached the halfway up the mountain, he heard the sound of chaotic fighting coming from the dense forest, it seemed that Zhong Han had escaped from danger and fought with Rong Xiang's men.The soldiers were all delighted, but fortunately they listened to the words of the young lady and ran straight to the foot of the mountain instead of going to the camp, thus avoiding a catastrophe.

5,

Although Mrs. Shen tried her best to cover it up, with the return of the defeated soldiers, the news that the eldest grandma of the Shen family was kidnapped by bandits flew all over the streets and alleys of Haizhou City like wings.Wen Yuzhu was shaking his head and reciting loudly with his teacher in the school, "The way of university is to be virtuous, to be close to the people, and to be perfect." Lu Tou pushed the door and shouted, "Master, hurry home, something serious happened!" Yuzhu didn't even have time to pack her schoolbag, so she ran home in a panic, and saw her second sister Qingzhu crying on the bedside of Wenyuntang, out of breath.

Qing Zhu was frightened out of his wits. Just now someone outside said that the eldest sister was kidnapped by bandits, and his father spit blood in a hurry and passed out.She has always had no idea, she just shed tears and looked at her brother anxiously, waiting for him to say something.

Wen Yuzhu stomped his feet and asked, "Did you call for a doctor?"

Qing Zhu nodded.

"What did the doctor say?"

"The doctor said, the doctor said..." Qing Zhu choked up, his voice was a little louder, it sounded like a reproach, and she couldn't understand it even more.Fortunately, Wang Ma prepared the medicine and came in to answer, "The doctor said that the master was in a hurry, and he didn't get it right for a while. But the master has been sick all these years, and he needs to take good care of him, so he can't be anxious anymore."

Wen Yuzhu just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, halfway through, he lifted it up again, grabbed Lao Lu and asked, "Where is the eldest sister, how is the eldest sister?"

Lu Tou squatted on the ground, holding his head in his hands, and said in a muffled voice, "The officers and soldiers have been fighting for a whole day, and they heard that the Zhong family village was flattened, but they didn't say that Miss..."

Xu Shi heard them talking about Wen Qingyun, Wen Yuntang slowly moved his eyelids, opened his eyes and looked at the surrounding people, and said weakly and eagerly, "What are you all doing here? Go find Yun'er .”

Wen Yuzhu was kicked out of the house by his father, and he walked along the street quickly and slowly. He didn't know where to find someone or where to ask for news.In fact, I know, but I don’t want to go.He will never forget what happened on the day his eldest sister got married. He fell off his horse and saw half of Haizhou City laughing at him.He hated the Shen family and vowed never to enter the Shen family's door for the rest of his life.But his footsteps were disobedient, and after walking for a while, he looked up and saw the vermilion door of the Shen family and the shiny copper ring on the door.

When the uncle and the young master came to the door, Mrs. Shen cheered up to receive her personally, no matter how easy-going her smile was, and no matter how kind her posture was, she still couldn't answer how Wen Qingyun was doing now.

"Go back and tell your father-in-law that the ransom has already been delivered, and the prefect Chen has also sent troops, so nothing will happen."

Wen Yuzhu said angrily, "Master Zhifu's soldiers bombarded Zhongjiazhai, is my sister still alive? Are you trying to save people or kill people with a knife?"

Madam Shen glanced at Yang Jing'an who was standing behind her, "What bombarded Zhong's village? What's going on?"

Yang Jing'an said in a low voice, "I heard that General Rong was unable to attack for a long time, so he used artillery to attack the village. There is no other way, and it's not because of the young lady."

Wen Yuzhu's face was pale, and he gritted his teeth, "This is how you save people? Madam Shen, it's fine if my sister is fine. If something happens, I will definitely not let you go!"

Mrs. Shen turned cold, the Shen family living room is not a place for people to indulge casually, let alone a brat.She only gave him face for the sake of his sister's accident, and he was crazy.At this time, there was no need for Mrs. Shen to speak, Yang Jingan said: "Young Master Wen, you are a scholar, you should know the truth that the wrong has the head and the debt has the owner, if you really want to take revenge, you have to go to the bandits, you have to find Zhong Han, what does it have to do with us?" ?”

Wen Yuzhu was a young man with a heart, and said, "Of course I will go to him, and I will not let you go."

This is the child talking nonsense, Mrs. Shen's anger subsided a little, and she knew to some extent that it was unlikely that Wen Qingyun would come back alive.If the bandits want to release people, they should release them after collecting the money. Why would Chen Zongyong send people to attack Shanbazhai again?So I forgave Wen Yuzhu in my heart.

The three of them were speechless for a while, until the servant outside changed his tune and shouted, "The eldest young mistress is back! The eldest young mistress is back!"

Wen Qingyun walked forward step by step, walked to the door, and fell down.
