Cross catastrophe

Chapter One
"My parents know, they will definitely scold you!"

"Hahaha, Yamen Xue, if you have such a big son, you will let him drink?"

The people around let out a burst of good-natured laughter.

Xue Wulie scratched his head, he laughed and said: "What's the matter, Ye Shaoxia is also my martial arts practitioner, so what's the point of drinking?"

But in the end, Ye Luo didn't go to drink with Xue Wulie, but said goodbye to Xue Wulie, and quietly went home.

Because the crime committed by the thief was serious, Yamen Xue who caught the thief was also rewarded.

Xue Wulie became famous again, but this time, Yamen Xue felt that he deserved the award. He had explained to many people that the thief was not unlucky, but was tricked by Ye Luo!
The people of this era were simple and honest, advocating the spirit of chivalry, so the name Ye Shaoxia spread unknowingly in Chang'an City.

There are more and more people calling.

Then, Mr. Peach Blossom found out about this matter.

The old man first gave Ye Luo a hard education, the exact words were like this.

"Little thing, have you just learned how to do it for a few days? Do you dare to learn from other heroes and fight for justice?"

"That sword has no eyes, what if it hurts you?"

"Besides, such a big thing happened, you acted like nothing happened the next day, and didn't mention it. Do you think that you are no longer a teacher?"

Then, a board meal is naturally unavoidable.

But Ye Luo also found that although the teacher looked a little angry, he didn't say anything about the matter itself!
In other words, the teacher actually agrees with his approach in his heart.Just worry about him, feel too dangerous!

So Ye Luo asked Mr. Taohua at that time: "Teacher, what I did was right or wrong?"

Mr. Peach Blossom was silent for a long time before he said: "Son, what you did is not wrong, but you must remember that the son of a daughter can't sit still, and you will... be a person who will make great achievements in the future. If you are hurt by some villains in the market , where do you ask the teacher to find a second person like you?"

After hearing this, Ye Luo felt very warm in her heart. Seeing the teacher's expression soften, she asked cautiously, "Then... can I still do these things in the future while ensuring myself?"

Mr. Peach Blossom did not hesitate too much, and nodded: "Forget it, you have a heart of justice, so go ahead and do it!"

After getting permission from her mentor, Ye Luo was out of control.

In the city of Chang'an, I really did a lot of things to help people when they saw injustice.

Just like that, he and Xue Yashu got to know each other little by little.

His name as Ye Shaoxia became more and more resounding.

But what's interesting is that few of his classmates and family members know this name.

Mr. Taohua doesn't want Ye Luo's "chivalrous name" to spread to the ears of scholars. Ye Luo can ride and shoot well, which is also a big bargaining chip for Ye Luo in the future!

Able to write and use martial arts!

But he can't be a hero who eliminates violence and makes good!

Because heroes are all from the rivers and lakes.

People from the rivers and lakes... How many people can be officials?
Mr. Taohua's expectations for Yeluo are quite high.

Therefore, no effort was spared in protecting this disciple.

As for Ye Luo's family, although they knew that Ye Luo was practicing literature and martial arts with Mr. Taohua, they would never have imagined that their good baby was already well-known in Chang'an City.

Walking on the road in Chang'an City, the gentle breeze blows and blows on the body, which is very comfortable.

Ye Luo also likes this feeling very much, the world is peaceful, there is no competition in the world, so happy every day, how wonderful!
"Ah! You, what are you going to do?"

"let me go!"

A girl's scream suddenly came from not far away, awakening Ye Luo who was in deep thought.

At this time, the crowd on the street fled in all directions, all fleeing to the distance.

Ye Luo was shocked immediately, and murmured: "This is Chang'an City! In broad daylight...there is such a thing as robbing civilian girls? Isn't this courting death?"

This is not the time at the end of the Sui Dynasty, when the world was in chaos and the people were in dire straits, not to mention robbing the women of the people in broad daylight, it was not uncommon for some robbers to rob the wealthy households in broad daylight.

Now that the Tang Dynasty is established and the world is united, the defense force of Chang'an City is unprecedentedly strong.

Not to mention that generals from all walks of life are almost all in Chang'an City now. Those generals are all righteous generals who kill Yingye's iron-blooded generals. Let's go there with a knife first, and then cut off the head.

Such a thing has never happened!
Therefore, Ye Luo was very surprised.

"Let go of me, let go of me!"

Ye Luo hurried over there, and saw a girl in a white dress who was being dragged desperately onto a carriage by several servants with fierce faces.

There are also some servants who savagely drive away the people around them.

"Damn, what are you looking at? Get lost!"

"Go away, go away!"

"Look again and gouge your eyes out!"

"This little girl is a concubine bought by my young master. She dared to sneak out. Now that we have found her, we are going to take her back, so mind your own business!"

A group of evil servants were threatening fiercely there.

The girl in the green skirt resisted with tears, and said: "Everyone, don't believe what they say, they are talking nonsense, I am not anyone's concubine, please... help me!"

The people onlookers are not stupid, so they can see that things are not what those evil servants said, but looking at this group of evil servants with fresh clothes and angry horses, and looking at the luxury of the carriage, they know that this group of people has a lot of background. Where dare to go up to stop it?
To be honest, Ye Luo also hesitated a bit, the teacher once said: A gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall.

Ye Luo could tell from the clothes of this group of people that the other party should be a nobleman!
But his family is a merchant family, and there is a world of difference in status.

These are not petty thefts. If they really rush up, it is very likely that their own family will be affected, but if they don't care about it... This sister will definitely be insulted!

The idea of ​​not caring, only remained in Ye Luo's heart for a moment, and the righteous side gained the upper hand.

Because the teacher once said: Studying and practicing martial arts is for the sake of being able to make decisions for the people and uphold justice for them one day in the future!
"stop!"

Ye Luo stopped drinking, and rushed directly to an evil servant who was holding the girl's arm, and kicked in the air, hitting the evil servant's face.

"Ouch!"

The servant with a savage face and a fierce face was kicked in the face by Ye Luo, blood was pouring from his nose and mouth, he covered his face with his hands, sat on the ground and wailed: "My face...my face..."

"You have no face!"

"Shameless thing!"

Ye Luo yelled angrily, then attacked the second person, and shouted at the same time: "The prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people!"

"Are you just watching a woman be so innocent?"

At this time, someone among the people watching around finally stood up and shouted: "The prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people! This man robs the common people's daughters, even if he is a relative of the emperor, he will be punished by beating his mother!" "

"It's Ye Shaoxia! Everyone!" Someone recognized Ye Luo and shouted.

Humans are like this, justice... also needs to be guided.

If someone dares to rush up first, there will be a second... a third... and even more.

In fact, these evil servants have no force, they just rely on their size and appearance to bluff people.

Now that there are so many people rushing up at once, they were already timid in their hearts, so they let go of the girl, turned around and ran away.

"Kill them!"

Public anger is like this. When it has the upper hand, public anger will become more terrifying, and even lose its reason.

Those evil servants were surrounded and beaten by a group of people.

The girl in the green skirt hurriedly thanked Ye Luo, and ran away like a frightened bird.

At this time, a young man came out from the carriage, with oily hair and pink face, wearing gorgeous clothes, and said angrily: "Are you courting death? Do you know who I am?"

boom!
A big man with dark skin punched the young man on the nose, and said with a sneer, "You are the king of heaven, I will hit you too!"

The young man's nose was bleeding profusely from the beating and he wailed.

At this time, Xue Wulie also rushed here with a group of yamen servants, shouted to calm everyone down, and then controlled the situation.

This young man with the appearance of a son, his face was like a dyeing workshop, with snot and tears mixed with blood, all over his face.

Sitting on the ground and howling.

That group of evil servants was worse than him, they had already been beaten to death by the angry onlookers.

Xue Wulie saw Ye Luo and motioned him to leave quickly with his eyes.

Xue Wulie knew very well in his heart that this son must have a strong background, once he gets entangled, he may cause endless troubles.

However, at this moment, the young man on the ground suddenly opened his eyes, took out a handkerchief, wiped the blood off his face, and looked at Ye Luo fiercely.

Gritting his teeth, he said, "Little bastard, I know who you are, Shaoxia Ye, right? I remember you, you are dead!"

Xue Wulie frowned and said, "Enough! In broad daylight, you robbed civilian girls. Do you want your parents to know about this? Or do you want me to report this matter directly to the Ministry of Criminal Justice? If you really go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, what do you do today It's enough to make you lose your head!"

The young man trembled in fright from Xue Wulie, but then he stiffened again and said with a sneer, "Xue Yamen, right? I've heard of you too, a little yamen servant, don't think of yourself as the incarnation of justice! I have countless methods to deal with you, do you know who I am?"

Xue Wulie's face was cold, and he snorted.

The young man sneered and said, "My name is Hou Liang, and my uncle is Hou Junji! Remember all of you! Especially you!"

Hou Liang looked at Ye Luo suspiciously: "There will be a period later!"

As he said that, he got into the carriage directly, and shouted at those evil servants: "What are you pretending to be dead? A bunch of trash!"

A group of evil servants walked over, supported each other, and drove away like a bereaved dog in a carriage.

At this time, someone in the crowd said: "Young Xia Ye, be careful, although this Hou Liang is not Hou Junji's real nephew, but just a distant nephew, if you provoke him, you may be in trouble!"

The other onlookers all had expressions of horror on their faces.

Who is Hou Junji, they have naturally heard of it.

That is the big red man next to the current emperor!
The official worships General Zuowei and Lu Guogong, and bestows thousands of households in the city!
He is a great hero in the establishment of the Tang Dynasty!
He is also the key figure for today's emperor Li Shimin to ascend to the throne!

Even if Hou Liang is just his distant nephew, it is definitely not something ordinary people like them can provoke.

It was a good fight just now, but now, they all felt fear, and the group of people quickly dispersed.

An hour later, inside a tavern.

Ye Luo and Xue Wulie sat together, looking at each other silently.

A glass of water was placed in front of Ye Luo, and a jug of wine was placed in front of Xue Wulie.

There are several dishes on the table.

But neither of them moved their chopsticks.

After a long time, Xue Wulie picked up the wine glass in front of him, raised his head and took a big sip, looked at Ye Luo and said, "Little Ye Zi...you are too reckless in today's matter!"

Ye Luo nodded and said, "I know, but if I don't care about it today, that sister, I'm afraid..."

"Hey..." Xue Wulie let out a long sigh, and couldn't help cursing: "These nobles who founded the country are all self-disciplined enough to control the children in the family honestly enough. But those distant relatives and relatives often make trouble. Come out with some moths."

"Relying on the relatives who have high positions, they can do whatever they want, and often do things that both people and gods hate, and they are not afraid of being punished by heaven!"

Ye Luo frowned, sitting there, not knowing what to do.

With the other party's ability, it was a breeze to find out Ye Luo's family through the three words Ye Shaoxia.

Thinking of how his actions today might affect his family, Ye Luo felt extremely bitter in his heart.

He has been very sensible since he was a child and never caused trouble for his family.

But this time...

"By the way..." Xue Wulie looked at Ye Luo: "I suddenly thought of a way!"

Ye Luo looked up at him.

Xue Wulie took a sip of his wine and said with a smile: "You can ask your teacher, Mr. Taohua!"

"His clan brother is also an official in the court. This incident has not caused too much impact. He can go say hello to General Zuowei and Lu Guogong..."

"After all, Hou Liang was at fault for this matter, and if it spreads out, I'm afraid Lu Guogong's face will not be bright!"

"Maybe, after Lu Guogong heard about this incident, he would personally teach Hou Liang a lesson and cut off his head... It's not impossible!"

Ye Luo looked at Xue Wulie and said, "Is this... alright?"

Xue Wulie smiled and said: "Don't worry, it will definitely work, don't underestimate the consciousness of these founding fathers, it is definitely much higher than you imagined!"

"Then... it seems that this is the only way to go, but if this is the case, I will probably be scolded by the teacher again." Ye Luo took a sip from the water glass in front of him and murmured.

"That's better than hurting the family. The look in the eyes of that little boy named Hou Liang before he left today shows that he is a very vindictive person. Therefore, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible!" Xue Wulie Shen Sheng said.

"Tomorrow morning, when I see the teacher, I will tell him about it." Although Ye Luo is young, he also understands the reason why nights have long dreams.

Xue Wulie was right, even if he was severely punished by the teacher, it would be better than hurting his own family.

After finding a solution, the one big and one small, and the two friends who had been friends for a long time, all breathed a sigh of relief, and talked happily for the rest of the time.

By the time we parted, the sky outside had completely darkened, and a crescent moon was hanging on the branches.

Xue Wulie, who was a little drunk, looked at Ye Luo and said, "Little Ye Zi, I'll take you home!"

Ye Luo shook her head: "It's only one mile away from my house, it's very close, you'd better go home early and rest!"

Xue Wulie glanced around, but didn't hear any movement, so he said with a smile: "Well, tomorrow morning... remember it!"

Ye Luo nodded: "Don't worry, I will remember!"

"Okay, let's go home now!" Xue Wulie said, waving his hands at Ye Luo, and watched Ye Luo's figure disappear from sight.

There is no curfew in Chang'an City, so although there are not many pedestrians on the road at this time, they can still be seen sporadically.

Therefore, Xue Wulie was not worried about anything. Even though Hou Liang had uttered harsh words, even if he wanted to take revenge, it might not come so soon.

Thinking, Xue Wulie staggered away.

Ye Luo quickly returned to the door of her house. Just as she walked to the door, Ye Luo suddenly instinctively felt a crisis.

In the air... there seems to be a faint smell of blood!

Ye Luo was stunned immediately, and an icy cold air enveloped his whole body in an instant.

At that moment, without even thinking about it, Ye Luo pushed the door open and entered. The scene in front of her left Ye Luo stunned on the spot.

"Uncle Zhang, Uncle Zhao..."

With a trembling voice, Ye Luo walked towards the two people who fell on the ground.

These two are the guards of Ye's house. Every time Ye Luo comes back on weekdays, they will greet each other with smiles.

But this time, it won't happen.

Because these two people were all down in a pool of blood.

Ye Luo walked all the way closer, only to see the bloodstains on the ground through the faint moonlight.

Ye Luo frantically ran towards her parents' yard.

The Ye residence is very large and covers a very large area.

It is said that it was the other courtyard of a high-ranking official at the end of the Sui Dynasty. It was bought by the Ye family and has always been proud of it.

But in this big courtyard, there was no sound at the moment, the more Ye Luo ran in, the stronger the smell of blood.

Suddenly, a flame burst out from the direction of Ye Luo's parents' house.

By the way, the entire Ye family compound, in all directions, was full of flames.

Although the evening wind was not strong, the flames were still connected quickly.

Then, several figures quietly left under the cover of night.

There was a sudden exclamation outside.

"Go to the water!"

"The Ye family is in trouble!"

Ye Luo acted like crazy, ignoring the burning flames, rushed into his parents' room, opened the door and saw that his parents were already lying in a pool of blood.

The eyes are round and round, already dead!

"father!"

"mother!"

Ye Luo let out a shrill cry.

Feeling a burst of blackness in front of his eyes, his young body shook twice, and he passed out directly.
