Treacherous ministers have deep routines

【1 more】

Xiao Lingxiang's second reliable plan also failed.

Early in the morning of the second day, the whole army set off, marching mightily from Tanzhou to Yanzhou, to form an alliance with Chen Ji.

Lin Rang got up very early, and Xiao Lingxiang helped him tie up his hair, clenched his fists and said, "My lord, it's okay, we can continue to work hard!"

Lin Rang: "..."

Everything was ready, Lin Rang came to the gate of the government office and was about to leave when he saw Wei Man.

Wei Man's mental state didn't seem to be very good, there was a circle of black and blue under his eyelids, and he looked like he had suffered from insomnia all night.

When Wei Man saw Lin Rang, he seemed to be "shocked" with fright, and immediately stepped on the Juying Horse, and without looking at Lin Rang, he quickly reined in the horse and urged the horse to go fast.

Lin Rang hadn't spoken yet, and was left far behind. He always felt that there must be some vicious dog chasing Wei Man...

Lin Rang had no choice but to get on the cart, and together with Xiao Lingxiang, rested on the cart, and soon the team set off.

The team set off in a hurry, because there is a lot of time, so the tutorial is not very fast.

Starting in the morning, when the sun was getting dark, Wei Man ordered to set up camp, rest in place, and set off tomorrow.

Lin Rang stepped down from the cart, and before returning to his tent, he heard the sound of "tapping" horseshoes running wildly from a distance.

There was a loud sound of horseshoes, and everyone immediately became alert. Ying Ziyun held a silver gun in his hand, and squinted his eyes to see the dust billowing up in the distance.

Everyone took a closer look, the dust was approaching the camp, and then they could see clearly, someone couldn't help shouting, "It's Mr. Wei!"

The surname is Wei, you can tell by the name, and Wei Man is a family member.

Indeed, the person who came was none other than Wei Man's other younger brother, Wei Zilian.

Wei Zilian's family was very rich, but it happened to be in troubled times, so in order to protect himself, Wei Zilian chose to join the army and voted under Wei Man's command, so he could have someone to take care of him.

However, the facts proved that Wei Man was "unrecognized by the six relatives". Wei Zilian joined Wei Man four or five years ago, and Lin Rang also knew Wei Zilian, so the relationship was pretty good.

At that time, Wei Zilian did not get any special military rank because of Wei Man. He started from the lowest level and even served as a soldier guarding the gate.

This time Wei Zilian went to look for Ma Yuan because he was ordered by Wei Man. After all, when they fought, they needed food and soldiers first, and horses second.

Wei Zilian had a horse farm in his own home, but with the continuous expansion of Wei Man's army, the horse farm in his home was no longer enough, so he was sent by Wei Man to "negotiate business" and buy horses from horse dealers.

Wei Zilian came here on horseback, Lin Rang observed carefully for a while, and found that Wei Zilian seemed to be darker than four or five years ago, presumably because he was often on the go. After all, Wei Man didn't know how to love his brother. It's a good thing to pit your brother.

Other than that, nothing much seems to have changed.

Wei Zilian is still the same as before, although his appearance is average, compared to his handsome elder brother Wei Man, he seems insignificant, and compared to his strong brother Xia Yuanyun, he seems not to be feared, but he has his own temperament.

Wei Zilian rushed over quickly, got off his horse, cupped his hands and said, "My lord!"

Wei Man hadn't seen Wei Zilian for a long time, so he patted Wei Zilian on the shoulder with a smile and said, "How did you catch up here?"

Wei Zilian said with a smile: "Hey, Zilian wanted to go to Tanzhou to join the lord, but before he arrived in Tanzhou, he heard that the lord was leading a team and was going to Yanzhou to form an alliance with Chen Ji, so he hurriedly changed his route. Unexpectedly, Zi Lian actually caught up with the lord!"

Wei Man hadn't seen Wei Zilian for a long time, and he missed him very much, so he said, "Come on, let's go into the tent and talk."

Before the two of them left, Wei Zilian happened to raise his head and saw Lin Rang immediately, and said dumbfounded, "This... this... Liehou!?"

Wei Zilian had never met Lin Rang, so he didn't know Lin Rang's "identity". At first glance, he was no different from the Liehou who died in the fire, no matter in appearance, temperament, or the cold eyes.

When Wei Zilian said this, everyone had different expressions.

Wei Man then said: "This person is a counselor seconded by Chen Jiying, and his name is Mr. Fengxiao."

Wei Zilian was very surprised, and said: "No, no, no, there is no such similar person in this world, it must be Liehou!"

Wei Zilian was so sure, when Lin Rang heard it, he was a good man, and he was sure that he was a lieutenant, unlike Wei Man, who was suspicious all day long.

So Lin Rang gave Wei Zilian a smile without hesitation.

"Bang!"

Seeing Lin Rang smiling, Wei Zilian blushed a little for no reason, but thought that Lin Rang's smile was too pretty, even though it was... a little fake.

When Wei Man saw it, his heart was sore, he grabbed Wei Zilian and said, "Zi Lian, we haven't seen each other for a long time, come and talk in the tent."

Wei Man forcefully dragged Wei Zilian into the tent, "Huo Lang!" He lowered the curtain and stopped him from looking at Lin Rang again.

Wei Zilian grabbed Wei Man's sleeve and said excitedly, "Brother, that's Liehou!"

Wei Man frowned and said, "It's not dark yet, it's not like you don't know what you're talking about in your sleep, Liehou..."

has passed away.

When Wei Man said this, he seemed to be in a bad mood.

Wei Zilian said: "Brother, think about it, if it weren't for Liehou, how could there be two people who look so alike in this world? Besides, my brother feels like him every time he looks at him. It's Liehou, his appearance can be faked, but what about his temperament and eyes? My younger brother doesn't understand Liehou's character, but you must understand him, elder brother, do you look like it? Do you look like it?"

picture!

Just the same!

Wei Man also thinks it is very similar, but he is always suspicious, and Lin Rang has the identity of a counselor under Chen Ji's command, so Wei Man doesn't believe Lin Rang even more, I am afraid he is here to confuse himself. .

only……

It's just a meticulous work, and the disguise is too similar, even a person like myself who gets along with Liehou day and night can't see where the flaw is.

Wei Zilian then said: "Hey, brother, when my younger brother was buying horses everywhere, he heard some anecdotes and strange things. There are people who can be resurrected from the dead. Brother, tell me, Mr. Feng Xiao, is it just the resurrection from the dead?" Liehou?"

Wei Man was silent for a while, because he didn't know whether it was true or not.

There is a feeling of urgency in my heart, and I tell myself, yes, absolutely!He is Liehou!

But there was another kind of suspicion and worry, telling Wei Man, don't believe it, how could it be Liehou, definitely not, maybe he will be caught in a trap.

He has already lost Liehou, and he can't afford to lose any more...

Wei Man had a headache and couldn't think about it for a while. Wei Zilian just came back, so he naturally wanted to chat with Wei Man more. The two had dinner together, and they chatted together.

At this moment, a soldier rushed over and said, "My lord! Something is wrong, all the horses in the camp... are all sick!"

Wei Man narrowed his eyes and said, "Are you sick?"

The soldier said, "That's right, my lord. There is also the shadowless horse. It seems to be very sick. It doesn't want to eat. No one will eat anything."

The Wuying horse was the mount of Liehou in the past. Wei Man cherished it very much. He always carried Wuying with him wherever he went, but no one could ride Wuying.

Wei Man hurriedly said, "Let's take a look with Gu."

Everyone got out of the camp and hurried to the racecourse.

Outside the racecourse, people from the inner three floors and the outer three floors seemed to have heard the news. Wei Man and Wei Zilian walked past the crowd and saw someone squatting on the ground of the racecourse.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Lin Rang!

Lin Rang squatted on the ground of the racecourse, stretched out his hand to stroke the mane of the Wuying horse, and Wuying also lay on the ground, looking listless and listless, without seeing the usual majestic work.

Lin Rang stroked the shadowless horse's mane, and the shadowless horse was not as resistant as in the past, and seemed very friendly to Lin Rang, and even rubbed his head in Lin Rang's hands.

Lin Rang held the grass in his hand and handed it to the Wuying Ma. The Wuying Ma obediently opened its mouth to bite. After taking a few bites, it seemed that there was something else in it. It was so unpalatable that it snorted. , I don't want to eat, but I turned my head away.

Lin Rang hurriedly comforted him, stroked the horse's head, and said, "Hey, eat it, you won't get sick after eating it, isn't it uncomfortable?"

The Shadowless Horse seemed to resist, but because of Lin Rang's words, he lowered his head slowly, and tentatively took two mouthfuls of the horse grass, with a look of disgust on his face, and finally bit the bullet and ate all the horse grass .

Seeing Wei Man, the official in charge of the horses hurried over and said, "My lord, the horses in the racecourse are all fine now."

The horses were all sick, not because of anyone's petty tricks, but because there was something wrong with the grass in this area. After eating it, the horses would lose energy, not want to eat, and looked listless.

Just now the veterinarian had checked it, and Lin Rang also came to have a look. As long as he took the medicine, he would be fine, but the Wuyingma was the most stubborn, and refused to cooperate with taking the medicine, so Lin Rang had to go into battle himself.

Lin Rang watched Wuying finish eating the herbs, stroked Wuying's horse's head, and said in a low voice, "It's so good."

Xiao Lingxiang squatted aside, looked at Lin Rang with some envy, and said, "Master, Xiang'er also wants to touch Wuying, can you?"

Wei Man watched from the side, thinking how is it possible?Wuying is not his horse either, what's the use of asking him?

Wuying is usually very stubborn. Since Wuying rushed out of the sea of ​​fire with the bone flute in his mouth, his temper has become even more stubborn.

As Wei Man thought about it, he saw Lin Rang grab Xiao Lingxiang's hand, easily put it on Wuying's horse's head, and touched it lightly twice.

"Hoo!!"

Wei Man was not surprised yet, Wei Zilian who was next to him gasped first, and said exaggeratedly: "This...Brother, Mr. Feng Xiao is really Liehou who came back from the dead? This Shadowless Horse actually only listens to him , is also absolutely perfect!"

Seeing Wu Yingma getting very close to Lin Rang, Wei Man's heart was full of turmoil. Is it really like Wei Zilian's words...

Lin Rang, the lieutenant who came back from the dead?

【2 more】

Although Wei Man saw all kinds of doubts, but to be honest, he couldn't believe it.

After all, Wei Man was suspicious by nature, and he watched Lin Ranghuo burn in Wushan.

If Lin Rang is really reborn from the ashes, why hasn't he come to him for four or five years?

Instead, as a counselor in Chen Jiying, return to her side?

Wei Man couldn't figure it out for a while, but the more he thought about it, the more impossible he felt.

Seeing his gloomy and troubled expression, Wei Zilian said in a low voice, "If you don't believe me, you can try Mr. Feng Xiao."

Wei Man glanced at Wei Zilian suspiciously, and said, "Go back and talk."

Seeing that the horse was fine, the two of them went back to the camp and talked in detail.

Wei Man said: "You just said to test, how to test?"

Wei Zilian said with a smile: "When you are marching and fighting, and governing states and counties, elder brother, you are a capable person and the number one leader. But in this kind of matter, you still have to listen to younger brother."

Wei Man said angrily: "There is so much nonsense in the first place, and if you talk nonsense again, I will tell you to wash the horse!"

"Good good!"

Wei Zilian and Wei Man have always had a good relationship. After all, the two grew up together. They played and played tricks together when they were children. Wei Man also taught Wei Zilian how to escape his father's persecution and study, etc., which is nothing to say no more...

Wei Zilian said with a smile: "It's not easy to handle? What does this lieutenant like to eat and what doesn't he like to eat, and what Mr. Feng Xiao likes to eat and what he doesn't like to eat? Can't you know just by comparing them?"

People have small habits. Maybe they will pretend before others, but they will relax after others.

Wei Zilian said again: "Mr. Feng Xiao, there is a little maid next to him. Call her over and ask her husband's daily preferences. Isn't such a couple clear about it?"

Wei Man thought about it, and realized that this was indeed the case.

but……

Wei Man's face was a little stiff, showing a trace of embarrassment, and said: "This... Liehou has no special preferences."

Wei Zilian: "..."

Wei Zilian couldn't help but cast a contemptuous glance at Wei Man, his lord, and said, "Emotions...you don't know anything, lord?"

Wei Man coughed and said: "Liehou is a cold and quiet person, he doesn't love money, he doesn't love sex, he doesn't covet fame and fortune, and he doesn't have too many preferences when it comes to food. This is not a normal thing. Is it?"

Wei Zilian still looked contemptuous, as if he didn't believe it.

Wei Man choked out a sentence and said, "Yes, Liehou likes blandness."

Wei Zilian was still going to call Xiao Lingxiang over and ask him about Mr. Feng Xiao's preferences.

Xiao Lingxiang was stealing food in the dining room, when she saw someone waving to her, she looked carefully, it was Wei Man's younger brother, the one who just came back today was called Wei Zilian.

Xiao Lingxiang jumped over, smiled sweetly, looked like a good girl, and said, "Brother Dude, are you looking for Xiang'er?"

Wei Zilian: "..." Wan, brother Wan?

Wei Zilian said earnestly, "Little sister, you can't talk like that. My brother is a general in the army. He's a famous man, not a dude. Do you know that?"

Xiao Lingxiang said with a smile: "Ke Xiang'er has always heard that the dandy brother is the one who loves flowers and grasses the most, and also likes the beautiful and graceful elder sister. Isn't this a dandy or something?"

Wei Zilian just wanted to correct Xiao Lingxiang, what a mess, who is slandering his reputation?

As a result, when he looked up, he happened to bump into Zhao Dian passing by.

Zhao Dian came over with a bundle of firewood. In the late autumn weather, he was not wearing a battle armor, but only a bunt, and his arms were bare. His dark muscles protruded, which made Wei Zilian's heart beat wildly.

What's even more frenzied is that Zhao Dian seems to have heard Xiao Lingxiang's words, what kind of dude brother, who likes beautiful and graceful elder sisters, etc...

Wei Zilian: "..."

Feeling guilty for a while, Wei Zilian quickly said, "Little sister, the lord is looking for you, let's go there quickly!"

He said, pushed Xiao Lingxiang and ran away in a hurry.

Zhao Dian looked at Wei Zilian's back, narrowed his eyes, and continued walking forward with the firewood in his arms.

Xiao Lingxiang entered the lord's tent, blinked her big eyes, and said, "Ah? Mr. Wei, you ask what my son likes to eat? Isn't it simple?"

Xiao Lingxiang broke her white and tender little fingers, counted and said: "My son, I like sweet food, especially sweet and sour pork, but the son said that this sweet and sour pork is also very particular, he doesn't like...he doesn't like it ..."

As Xiao Lingxiang said, she tilted her head and thought about it carefully, she seemed to remember it, and said suddenly: "Oh! Young Master said, he doesn't like sweet and sour pork with tomato mouth, he only wants sugar-coated ones."

Although Xiao Lingxiang doesn't know what a tomato is, she still remembers it.

Xiao Lingxiang talked eloquently, and seemed to have endless things to say, and continued: "Young master also likes squirrel mandarin fish. Besides the sweet ones, my young master also likes spicy ones, such as boiled fish, Maoxuewang, and spicy fish. Chicken, etc., etc., although I have never tasted these fragrances... Oh, yes, I also like to talk about things, such as boiled dried shredded pork, crab meat and lion head, Wensi tofu soup, three sets of duck..."

Xiao Lingxiang finished counting, and said: "Master doesn't like to eat ginger! Don't let you see ginger! You can put it in when cooking, but you must pick it out when you take it out of the pot, otherwise you will see it, that... ...What kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder is about to attack! It's very scary!"

Wei Man: "..."

Wei Zilian: "..."

The two people heard that it was in the clouds, what squirrel mandarin fish, hairy blood, they couldn't understand at all, but what they could understand was that Xiao Lingxiang was really familiar with Lin Rang's taste, and it was like a treasure.

Wei Zilian scorned Wei Man again, he spent so long with Liehou that he didn't know what Liehou's taste was like.

Wei Man couldn't help but also fell into deep contemplation. Both Lin Rang and Lie Hou had such a cold temperament, he didn't know Lie Hou's taste at all, but Xiao Lingxiang knew Lin Rang's taste.

He always felt that the reason why he didn't know Liehou's taste was because Liehou was deserted and had no taste at all.

But how is this possible?

As long as you are a person, you have your own preferences and your own dislikes.

Wei Man didn't understand these at all, because he didn't understand at all.

Only then did Wei Man suddenly realize that he kept saying how much he admired Liehou. In fact, when Liehou was around, the topic they talked about together was always how to help Wei Man defeat Tong Gao and enter the capital.

But now that Tong Gao is dead and the capital has stabilized, Wei Man has no time to find out Liehou's preferences...

Thinking of this, Wei Man couldn't help but sighed deeply, waved his hands and said, "Let's all step back."

Wei Zilian is a transparent person. He is in business, so he knows how to read people's faces. Seeing Wei Man's appearance, he took Xiao Lingxiang and retreated, leaving him alone.

Wei Zilian said to Xiao Lingxiang: "Little sister, be obedient, don't tell your son what happened today, okay?"

Xiao Lingxiang rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Okay!"

Wei Zilian patted her little face, and said: "You are so obedient, so cute, oh, it would be great if my brother could have such a daughter, it would be so painful to look at."

Wei Zilian was sighing, and Xiao Lingxiang laughed, and said to Wei Zilian behind his back: "Brother Dian! Do you also want a lovely girl like Xiang'er?"

Wei Zilian: "..."

Wei Zilian was so frightened that his back burst into cold sweat, and he looked back...

Summon!

At some point, Zhao Dian stood behind Wei Zilian, and quietly heard his words about wanting a daughter.

Xiao Lingxiang giggled, patted Wei Zilian on the shoulder, and said, "Brother Dude, Xiang'er is back, let's talk about things, you mustn't fight!"

She said, turned and ran away.

When he was running away, he heard Wei Zilian's voice behind him saying, "Zhao...Zhao Dian, listen to me, I was joking just now!"

Zhao Dian's voice said lightly: "Young Master Wei, do you regret being with Dian? That's right, Young Master Wei said just now that he likes beautiful and graceful girls."

Wei Zilian immediately said: "Misunderstanding! I'm wronged, I didn't say that, it was that little girl just now!"

"You...you listen to my explanation!"

"A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands!"

"You can't even move your mouth..."

Xiao Lingxiang ran all the way back to the tent where Lin Rang was staying with a smirk, and as soon as she came back, she saw Lin Rang sitting on the mat, looking at her with indifference and sternness.

Xiao Lingxiang: "..."

Xiao Lingxiang hurried in obediently, knelt on the mat, lowered her head, looking like she had done something wrong.

Lin Rang said lightly: "When is the access control? Why did you come back so late?"

Xiao Lingxiang shook her little head pitifully, and said, "The access control is before people set up..."

Rending is Haishi, before nine o'clock in the evening.

Lin Rang said lightly: "I came back when it was dark. You little girl, if something bad happens outside, what should you do? Now that you are about to enter the land of Yanzhou, it is even more unsafe."

Xiao Lingxiang pouted and said, "Master, Xiang'er knows it's wrong."

As she spoke, she immediately leaned forward and said, "My lord, it was Mr. Wei who asked Xiang'er to go there just now. Mr. Wei asked Mr. Xiang'er what he likes, and he reminded me, don't tell Mr. Xiang'er!"

Lin Rang was a little strange, glanced at Xiao Lingxiang, thought for a while, and said, "You should rest first, I'll go out for a while."

Xiao Lingxiang watched Lin Rang walk out of the tent, snorted, turned her head and said, "It's so late, but I went out by myself."

When Lin Rang came out of the camp, he happened to see Wei Zilian and Zhao Dian. The two of them were standing behind a remote tent, and Wei Zilian's face was flushed red.

Then I heard Zhao Dian's voice hoarsely say: "Do you still like beautiful and graceful girls?"

Wei Zilian quickly said: "I don't like it, I don't like it anymore! Good man, spare your life!"

Lin Rang glanced at it lightly. He didn't realize that he hadn't "come back" in four or five years. .

Lin Rang came to the door of Wei Man's camp. By coincidence, Wei Man opened the curtain with a "crash" and walked out, meeting Lin Rang face to face.

Wei Man couldn't sleep, he had some worries, so he went out for a walk, and unexpectedly met Lin Rang.

Lin Rang looked at Wei Man indifferently.

Wei Man was taken aback by him, and said, "Well... what a coincidence, you also came to see the moonlight?"

Lin Rang said lightly: "No, this humble minister is here to see Duke Wei."

Wei Man: "..." The beginning was a slap in the face.

Wei Man was at a loss for words, but Lin Rang looked at Wei Man calmly and said, "If Mr. Wei wants to know the preferences of the humble minister, he can just ask the humble minister directly. There is no need to ask others for such matters."

Wei Man: "..." followed by another slap in the face...

From Tanzhou to Yanzhou, it takes a long time, especially when the army is marching.

After all, the alliance was meeting on Chen Ji's land, so Wei Man brought enough soldiers and horses to prevent any accidents.

The army marched mightily, and finally reached the meeting point.

The location of the alliance is within Yanzhou. Because both sides have to garrison troops, they chose a remote place with only a small village nearby, which is a very uncivilized and primitive village.

The rest is a flat field, which is very suitable for the alliance to garrison troops.

A river flowed out from the village, meandering down, so Wei Man ordered his tents to be stationed near the river, so that water could be easily fetched.

The army quickly settled down and pitched their tents.

It was only after they settled down that they realized that Chen Ji and everyone in Chen Ying had disappeared, and they didn't know where they were.

It stands to reason that if there is an alliance, someone will definitely come to prepare in the early stage, set up camp at the location of the alliance, and arrange the camp for the alliance.

This matter was naturally undertaken by Chen Jilai, after all, the location of the alliance was within Yanzhou.

But Chen Ji was nowhere to be seen, as if he had released Wei Man as a pigeon, and there was no meeting with the camp.

Two days later, Chen Ji's envoy came "at the top of his horse" and said that Mr. Chen had some important business, so the meeting was delayed, and now he was rushing to the meeting place with all his strength, and he also invited Wei Man sorry.

When Wei Man heard it, good guy, Chen Ji is trying to show his authority!

Huimeng didn't prepare in advance, and the time had come, but told them that Chen Ji hadn't left yet.

I'm afraid I have to wait at least ten days or more.

Wei Man's face was ferocious, if he hadn't wanted someone from him, Wei Man would not have been so humble.

When Chen Ji didn't come, Wei Man's army settled down.

The past few days have been very peaceful, and nothing major has happened. Lin Rang usually reads the pharmacopoeia and practices calligraphy.

Xiao Lingxiang is very boring, she is young and active, she always likes to run around, Lin Rang feels that Xiao Lingxiang, as the daughter of General Polu, sister of Wu Yan, and god-sister of Lu Jinyu, is now She was treated as a refugee when she was living outside, maybe it was because of her greed and stubbornness that she got lost!

Xiao Lingxiang couldn't sit still, and always wanted to go out to play, but there was nothing to play outside, except for a piece of loess, which was loess, but there was a small village a few miles away, but Lin Rang didn't let her go there.

After all, they are here for the alliance, so it's better not to disturb the villagers.

Seeing that Lin Rang was reading again, Xiao Lingxiang held her chin and pouted, looking hopeless.

Lin Rang was very helpless and said, "What's wrong, you can't sit still?"

Xiao Lingxiang immediately ran over and said, "My lord, let's go out and play hard!"

Lin Rang was a very calm person and didn't want to go out, but he didn't want to embarrass Xiao Lingxiang. After all, children are very active, so he said: "Forget it, some soldiers will go to the village to buy daily necessities, and you will follow them." Let’s go together, but remember the access control, got it?”

Xiao Lingxiang's eyes lit up instantly, and said: "I know! Xiang'er knows! Don't worry, young master! Xiang'er will be back before dusk!"

Lin Rang nodded, and Xiao Lingxiang couldn't stay still for a moment, so she ran out quickly to find the purchasing team, and was going to go out together.

All the buyers are servants, and Xiao Lingxiang is very familiar with them, after all, Xiao Lingxiang always goes to the dining room to steal food, everyone knows each other, and they set off soon.

Lin Rang read the book alone in the camp, and copied down the words he didn't know, and prepared to ask Xiao Lingxiang when he came back.

Just like that, they sat until dusk, and the sun gradually went down, but Xiao Lingxiang still didn't come back.

Xiao Lingxiang said that she would come back before dusk, but now it was dusk, Lin Rang couldn't help but frowned, stood up, opened the curtain and went out.

He went out of the camp, and happened to see Wei Zilian and Zhao Dian coming back from the outside, the two of them were talking as they walked.

Lin Rang stepped forward and said, "You two generals, have you seen Xiang'er?"

Wei Zilian is no stranger to Xiao Lingxiang, isn't she the little girl who entrapped him a few days ago, she is eccentric.

Wei Zilian said, "I didn't see it."

Zhao Dian also shook his head.

Wei Zilian said again: "Sir, Zilian heard that there is an epidemic in the nearby village. It's very serious. Don't go around with your bones, I'm afraid you will catch the disease."

Lin Rang frowned and said, "The epidemic?"

Zhao Dian also nodded and said, "That's right, the commotion is raging, it is said that it is the water god who caused the trouble."

When Wei Zilian heard this, he laughed and said, "What kind of water god? How can there be a water god in this poor country?"

When Lin Rang heard about the epidemic, he was a little curious, so he said, "What is the epidemic?"

Wei Zilian said: "I don't know the details, I just heard that the small village not far in front, it is said that an epidemic broke out overnight, and it was contagious. Most of the village got sick, and the young men also fell ill. There was no one there. Farming, they rely on this river to survive, so many people say that the water god has shown his power, and they want to worship the water god."

Zhao Dian said: "Not only that, but also threatened to capture a virgin, sacrifice to the water god, and throw her into the water to be the water god's bride."

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

Wei Zilian said mockingly: "These mountain people are ignorant. If there is a water god who wants a virgin to be his new wife, then it is not a god, but a monster!"

While everyone was talking, they heard someone running towards this side in a hurry, shouting while running: "Young Master!! Mr. Feng Xiao! Something is wrong! It's not good!"

Everyone turned their heads and saw that the person who came in a hurry was a servant. Didn't he just go to the next village to buy daily servants in the morning?

The servant stumbled over, nearly fell to the ground, and shouted, "Sir! It's bad! It's bad! Xiang'er, Xiang'er has been arrested!"

Everyone didn't know why, Lin Rang said calmly: "What's the matter? Who caught it?"

The servant hurriedly took two deep breaths and said: "We were shopping for daily necessities in the village, and the villagers wanted to sacrifice to the water god because of the epidemic, so...they caught Xiang'er and said that she was a virgin, and she was going to be thrown into the river to be the water god's new wife!! "

There are no virgins in the village. The reason is very simple. The ratio of male to female in the village is very imbalanced. This kind of place does not want girls. The strong men can still farm, and girls are losers.

As a result, there are few girls in the village and the population is so large, where can we find virgins?

It happened that Xiao Lingxiang went to buy it with the servants. When the villagers saw Xiao Lingxiang, they had bad ideas.

The servants are not soldiers and do not know martial arts. The villagers suddenly rioted and caught Xiao Lingxiang.

Upon hearing this, Lin Rang frowned and said, "Follow me to have a look."

Zhao Dian had never heard of such a horrific event, so he was very angry, grabbed his mace, and followed Lin Rang to the village.

Wei Zilian saw that he didn't follow, but turned around and ran to the main tent, shouting: "My lord! Brother!"

Lin Rang, Zhao Dian, servants and others hurried to the next village, and the village was buzzing with people.

Because it was dusk and the surroundings were dark, the villagers all lit torches, and the village was full of flames. Accompanied by the sound of the village song offering sacrifices to the water god, there was an unspeakable weirdness.

Lin asked the horse to rush over quickly, and the villagers were very flustered when they saw someone rushing in.

"Who are you!?"

"What if I disturb the water god!"

"Who is it?"

Lin Rang got off his horse, looked at the chaotic crowd, and carefully identified it, but there was no shadow of Xiao Lingxiang.

The villagers gathered by the river, holding torches, as if they were offering sacrifices to the water god. Lin Rang frowned and said, "Where is the girl you captured now?"

Don't look at Lin Rang's usually deserted appearance, he looks very harmless, but when he turns cold, he really has the feeling of a traitor in power.

"Girls?"

When the villagers heard this, they immediately shouted: "They are in the same group!"

"Catch them!"

"They let go of the sacrifices! Catch them and use them to sacrifice to the river god!"

The villagers suddenly rioted, and seemed to be angered by Lin Rang's words. Lin Rang didn't understand at first, but after listening carefully, he breathed a sigh of relief.

It turned out that Xiao Lingxiang was rescued.

Xiao Lingxiang had martial arts skills, so she wasn't afraid of those villagers, but she didn't have any sense of defense when she couldn't hold her back.

The servants couldn't beat the rioting villagers at all, so they had to run back to find reinforcements.

Xiao Lingxiang was tied up by five flowers, and she was about to throw herself into the water to pay homage to the water god, but at this moment, unexpected guests rushed out, and everyone didn't see clearly, so Xiao Lingxiang was rescued.

Before Lin asked them to come, the villagers were going to catch Xiao Lingxiang and the uninvited guest, but they were delayed by Lin Rang.

The villagers were very angry, and the sacrifices were taken away. They had no sacrifices to worship, and the water god would be angry.

"It's all these outsiders! They angered the water god!"

"That's right! We've lived in peace here for so many years, it's them who angered the water god!"

"Also took away the sacrifice!"

"The water god will be angry!"

"Catch 'em! Throw 'em into the water, in honor of the water god!"

The villagers shouted, and immediately rioted again, rushing forward quickly, waving the torches in their hands.

Lin Rang was taken aback and quickly backed away. Zhao Dian rushed up and pushed Lin Rang back.

The number of villagers is relatively large, more than the soldiers they brought, and they seem to be desperate, waving torches furiously, wanting to die with them.

Seeing the scene getting more and more chaotic, a villager grabbed Lin Rang, tore his clothes, and pushed him into the water.

Shouted: "Use him to pay homage to the water god!"

"The water god is angry!"

"Sacrifice to the water god!"

Lin Rang staggered from being pushed, and suddenly heard a sound of "Hoo—!!", a bright silver light suddenly pierced the night sky, and "Shua—" rushed straight.

The villagers were taken aback and were forced to back up. With a sound of "嗤!!", Yin Guang took a step in front of Lin Rang. If the villagers hadn't let go, they might have lost their arms by now.

At the same time, a loud sound of "Boom!!!" was heard, like a roaring river, and thousands of troops rushed out of the dark village.

Wei Man, dressed in black armor, stood on top of Jue Ying, coming amidst the wind, turned over and jumped in front of Lin Rang, and pulled out the saber on the ground with a "chih--".

Squinting his eyes, he said in a low voice: "I'll see if I'm alone, who dares to touch him today!"

Xiao Lingxiang followed the servants to the village, and found everything strange.

She was originally the eldest daughter of the Wu family, her father was General Polu, and she had two elder brothers controlled by younger sisters. Since she was a child, she was allowed to control her temperament, and she was not asked to play tricks on female celebrities, but let Xiao Lingxiang play with her sword. gun.

Xiao Lingxiang is a child of a wealthy family and has never experienced any hardships. When she came to this small village, she felt a little "so stubborn".

Although she followed the refugees for a period of time, she had never seen such a simple village. She walked here and looked there.

The villagers in the village always looked at Xiao Lingxiang with probing eyes, but Xiao Lingxiang didn't mind, thinking that the villagers were also curious about her.

How did she know that the villagers looked at her not because they were curious about her, but because they wanted to catch Xiao Lingxiang and use her as a virgin to worship the water god.
