In prison, Xu Changhua and An Niang hugged their heads and cried, experienced the test of life and death, and their relationship was sublimated.

Tong'er wiped her happy little tears on the side, shook her face, and saw Jiang Anyi quietly walking out of the prison.

On the ground was a bracelet of precious stones turned into powder, which was his dowry. Looking at her sister and brother-in-law who looked at each other, Tong'er felt that true love could not be easily given up.

Jumping up, Tong'er chased after him outside the prison and shouted, "Gongzi Jiang, you wait." ”

Saving An Niang, Jiang Anyi is happy, not to mention that he understands how to use true qi to detoxify. Hearing Tong'er's call, Jiang Anyi stood up and looked at Tong'er with a smile, the warm winter sun shone on Tong'er, which was so beautiful that it made people dizzy.

"Thank you, Gongzi Jiang." Tong'er didn't know how to speak, her face was so red that she had nothing to say.

Jiang Anyi smiled, everything was beautiful under the sun.

Tong'er finally mustered up the courage and said incoherently: "The bracelet is a dowry from my father, and it is very expensive...... You pay. ”

As soon as the words came out, Tong'er couldn't wait to slap herself, where did her usual sharp teeth go, and she clearly didn't want to say this.

Seeing Jiang Anyi's smile retracted, the good-looking sword eyebrows furrowed, Tong'er was so anxious that she was about to cry, "That's not what it means, it's ...... You don't have to pay for it. ”

Where is the arrogance of the extremely embarrassed girl in front of her, who still has half a point of whipping and whipping, tears rolling down uncontrollably, just want to turn around and run away, refusing to move, thinking about explaining clearly.

Jiang Anyi took out the brocade bag from his arms, poured out a topaz, held it in front of Tong'er with the palm of his hand, and said, "I'll pay you for it." ”

Tong'er originally wanted to say not to pay, but her eyes were deeply attracted by the gem, which was as big as a pigeon's egg, reflecting a brilliant light in the palm of her hand, as beautiful and attractive as a falling star. Tong'er was born in a family, so she naturally knew that this topaz was much more valuable than a bracelet.

Her face turned even redder, Tong'er quickly grabbed the gem from Jiang Anyi's palm, stepped forward, stood on tiptoe, her red lips gently pecked Jiang Anyi's face, and then fled in panic like a fawn, shedding a string of silver bell-like laughter.

The warm, wet feeling rippled from his face into his heart, and Jiang Anyi was drunk in gentleness.

Xuchanghua's sentence was quickly forwarded from the state government: 20 rods, sent to Linshan County, Qianzhou, and hard labor for five years. Qianzhou is far away in southern Xinjiang, a land of poor mountains and bad waters, and has always been a place for degraded officials and prisoners. The southbound trip out of Renzhou passed through Dezhou, passed through Chuzhou, and then arrived in Qianzhou. Anyway, Xuchanghua's fortune was saved.

On November 26, Xuchanghua took 20 boards, and under the send-off of An Niang and Tong'er, he went out of the south gate to Qianzhou. Before leaving, Xu Changhua wanted to see Jiang Anyi, but Jiang Anyi refused.

At the city gate, say goodbye to An Niang, look back at this familiar city, Xuchanghua is embarrassed, I don't know if I have the life to come back. ruthless, no longer looking at his crying wife, Xu Changhua gradually moved away under the escort of the two chaser.

On the city wall, Jiang Anyi held the battlement with his hand and watched the old man leave. Although Xu Changhua can't help himself, if he wants Jiang Anyi to be friends without any guilt, Jiang Anyi thinks that he can't do it, and forgetting the rivers and lakes from now on may be the best ending.

The two escorted Xie and Xuchanghua knew each other, and they took off the shackles of Xuchanghua not far from the county seat, and the three of them walked together along the way, talking and laughing and laughing and not treating Xuchanghua as a prisoner. Xuchanghua was not short of silver, and he entertained the two of them with good food and drink at the accommodation.

From Renzhou to Dezhou, Canglan Ridge is an important road, and Xuchanghua also passes through here to go south. Because it was winter, the ice on the road made this already very treacherous road more and more difficult, and the small number of merchants preferred to walk dozens of miles and turn another gentle road.

The sky was gray, and the cold wind roared straight into the neck. Dong San looked up at the clouds in the sky and said, "Master Xu, we have to speed up and strive to get to the checkpoint to stay, otherwise it will be dangerous to be wrapped in snow on this road." ”

There were no other pedestrians in sight on the road, and the three of them kept their heads down and struggled against the wind.

Gu Si felt a strong force pull him to the side, his feet slipped on the ice, and he fell to the ground. Without waiting to get up, Xu Changhua dragged him to hide behind a rock, and on the other side, Dong San was also busy hiding behind a tree.

"Whoosh", the cold arrow was like a locust, and the hit splashed sparks on the avenue, and Gu Si's face turned white all of a sudden.

More than a dozen people with knives and sticks came out of the mountains and forests, most of Xuchanghua knew them, and most of them were Li Zhuang's nursing homes, and it seemed that the Li family still refused to let go of themselves.

Xu Changhua stepped forward, stood in the middle of the road, and said to the tall man led by him: "Li Shiji, I didn't expect you to kill me." ”

Li Shiji smiled bitterly: "Brother Xu, I don't want to, but the patriarch strictly ordered, I have to follow." ”

Xu Changhua's heart was like a knife, he indirectly forced Zhang Liangkuan to death and harmed Jiang Anyi, and like Li Shiji, he owed the Li family affection and had to obey. However, An Niang died for herself, and she and the Li family have been cut off since then, and they no longer owe each other.

Thinking of this, Xu Changhua sneered: "Since this is the case, there is no need to say more, if you have the ability to take Xu's life." ”

The north wind was cold, blowing Xuchanghua's clothes hunting, although it was bare-handed, but it stood up to the sky.

After all, it was broad daylight, and it was on the official road, although Li Shiji sent people to block it at both ends, but it was also necessary to do it as soon as possible, and the night was long and dreamy.

Xuchanghua's kung fu is mainly on the bow and arrow, Li Shiji said: "Everyone go together, finish the matter and leave as soon as possible." ”

More than a dozen men rushed up with knives and sticks, Gu Si was grateful to Xu Changhua for saving his life just now, threw out the whistle stick in his hand, and shouted: "Brother Xu picks up the guy." ”

Holding the stick in his hand, Xuchang turned like a mad tiger, and the figure of the stick swept over, and the sound of pain was endless.

Li Shiji didn't rush forward, he knew that Xu Changhua had a breath of urgency in his chest, and when the urgency was exhausted, his movements would naturally slow down.

Sure enough, with the kung fu of half a pillar of incense, Xuchanghua's stick mountain became stagnant, and Li Shiji knew that it was time for him to appear.

Leng Buding inserted from the right side, and Li Shiji slashed at Xuchanghua. Xuchanghua stood up, but what Li Shiji was holding in his hand was a hundred steel knives, which were extremely sharp. "Brush" and cut the stick in two.

Xu Changhua hurriedly inhaled and shrunk his stomach, and the robe on his body was cut by a knife.

Holding half a stick, Xu Changhua's cold sweat came out, don't die in the prison, but die on the avenue, and he made an appointment with An Niang to stay for life.

The knife light came again, Xu Changhua didn't dare to take it hard, and pulled out the wooden stick obliquely. Li Shiji waited for work, and the weapon in his hand was sharp, Xu Changhua was forced to retreat constantly, and cold sweat turned into hot sweat.

Seeing that Xuchanghua was about to be injured in the hands of Li Shiji, the sound of dense horses' hooves came from the north, Li Shiji was stunned, and he sent six people to guard the intersection, only saying that the collapse was a landslide, and pedestrians were not allowed to pass by within an hour.

Li Shiji's hand tightened, and the steel knife floated towards Xuchanghua like snowflakes, and Xuchanghua also heard the sound of horses' hooves, knowing that something had changed, and gritted his teeth to support it.

"Whoosh", a cold arrow shot at Li Shiji, Xu Shiji made a horizontal knife, and with a "dang" sound, the arrow bounced off the knife surface.

Xu Changhua took the opportunity to take a few steps back, gasping for breath and looking at the sound of horses' hooves. Seeing the people who came, Xu Changhua was overjoyed, they were brothers.

Eight horses stopped in front of Xuchanghua, and eight men jumped off their horses and shouted: "I've seen big brother."

These people were friends made by Xuchanghua when he was a ranger, and he plotted that day that Jiang Anyi lost, and Xuchanghua dismissed them. However, these people did not leave, and Xuchanghua was secretly taking care of these people in prison.

Xu Changhua smiled heartily: "Leopard, I'm still wondering, why don't you come to send it, if it's a pillar of incense late, you just wait to collect my body." ”

Someone handed the bow and arrow to Xuchanghua. With the bow in his hand, Xu Changhua suddenly became radiant, and even the tattered and fluttering robes were vivid in the wind.

Li Shiji's footsteps moved quietly, Xuchanghua had a bow and arrow, and the tiger gave birth to wings, it was impossible to rob him, and now it was a question of whether he could save his life.

"Li Shiji", Xu Changhua called out to Li Shiji, who was retreating, and said: "You bring a letter to Old Man Li for me, and ask him to send An Niang to the Xinglong Inn in Anqing Mansion, Dezhou, I will not report anything to the government, but I have nothing to do with the Li family from now on." ”

Li Shiji retreated, and Xu Changhua said to Dong San and Gu Si, who were panicked: "Don't worry, two brothers. ”

"Leopard, do you have any money on you?"

The strong man named Leopard took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and said, "Big brother, you asked me to sell the fields and shops, and I got a total of more than 7,300 taels of silver, all of which are here." ”

Xu Changhua took the silver ticket, counted out four hundred taels and handed it to Dong San and the others, and said with a smile: "I have been taken care of by two brothers along the way, you can keep this silver, and if you go back in a few days, you will say that Xu was killed by robbers in the middle of the road." ”

Dong San took the silver ticket and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, don't worry, I know it in my heart." ”

Li Zhuang, Li Shiyou listened to Li Shiji's words of Xuchanghua, and the successive blows made the old man unable to bear it anymore, his body was crooked, and he fainted.

When Master Li opened his eyes again, it was already late at night. The lights are bright, and the eyes are dazzling. Hearing Master Li's moans, Li Mingde shouted softly: "Father, father." ”

Closing his eyes, Master Li found that his left hand could not move, and the corners of his mouth were also full of energy, and Master Li sadly found that he was half paralyzed.

After closing his eyes and stabilizing his emotions, Master Li spoke: "Mingshan, I can't do it anymore, you are in charge of the affairs of the family." Xuchanghua's matter was sent to An Niang as he said, so that he didn't talk nonsense. ”

The words were already a little vague, Li Mingde nodded again and again, and said, "Father, don't talk too much, rest well, I will arrange it properly." ”

Master Li finally struggled to say: "Wait for the news of the dynasty." ”
