Mi County is located in Xingyang, the eastern foot of Songshan Mountain, Yongjia, the Chinese and Korean Sikong Xun Domain once set up a platform here, spinning up and down, so far there is no trace.

Today's Mi County, does not belong to which side of the world, there is no too strong force in the realm, the villagers are scattered between the mountains and rivers, each other has no subordinate to each other, occasionally there are unbearable and lonely Ding Zhuang can not bear the poor life, by the township heroes and other calls to gather to go out, or never return, or return to their hometown in embarrassment.

This place is neither an important nor a famous town, except for the occasional invasion of bandits crossing the border, it can actually retain some peace in this troubled world.

There is a low hill in the county, and the mountain stream flows down the low hill, watering a piece of fertile soil that is not too large, and there are separated seedlings in the field, and there are more than a dozen simple houses on the side of the hill, and some chickens, ducks and guineas are raised in the fence wall in front of the houses.

In the fields where some farmers mow grass and water seedlings, there are peasant women sitting on the ground on the slope ridges, their hands flexibly weaving good hemp silk, and in the woods not far away, there are children running in the grass picking berries and stuffing them into their mouths, the sour juice flows out after the peel is bitten, the child's immature facial features are wrinkled with sourness, and the thin body is so sour that it can't stop swinging, but when those bright red and ripe berries appear in the field of vision, they still can't help but relapse into their old ways, picking and throwing them into their mouths.

Beneath this peaceful appearance, however, there is an unusual throbbing brewing. There is no lack of gossip among the villagers in their spare time, and there is a worry in their tones that cannot be concealed.

"Do you know, last night, the east neighbor Ah Si went to the river to take a shower, and he actually fished out a swollen human head in the stream......"

"Yes, then Ah Si also said that he was bumped into by a mountain ghost who traveled to eat people, and he was so scared that he didn't dare to go out."

"No wonder, no wonder, I came home last night carrying water, always shouting and shouting, these days are so hot that my tongue hangs long, and I refuse to drink a sip of stream water, I am almost dying of thirst......"

In the midst of the discussion, everyone couldn't help but look at the stream that was led into the field by the small canal and still clear, and they felt a shudder in their hearts.

"I'm afraid it may not be a mountain ghost......

A tall farmer in his forties, with a sad look on his wrinkled face, sighed and looked at the upper reaches of the stream. He had two broken fingers on his left hand and a bulging scar on his chin, which appeared to be left after the knife wound had healed.

Hearing this man say this, everyone's faces changed color, and they all gathered around the farmer, and asked in a low voice with a worried face, "Brother, do you see something unusual?" ”

"Yes, Ah Shan, you are the only one in our village who has gone out in the early years and has the most extensive knowledge, isn't there something evil coming?"

What is the surname of more than a dozen villagers in this village, and the farmer He Shan, who has scars on his body, also went out to wander when he was young, and later returned with scars, so he married a wife and had children in the township, and kept his mouth shut about foreign affairs.

At this time, seeing that everyone was around, his face showed a look of remembrance, and gradually cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and after a while, he sighed, pointed to the low hill and said, "It's hard to say, it's hard to say...... After a few days of farming, everyone will follow me up the mountain, let's get a hidden place to hide first. ”

So saying, he took the pickaxe and went home.

This answer is naturally unsatisfactory, the villagers have their own grievances, and there is no shortage of younger Ding Zhuang who can't help but sneer: "Uncle went out and suffered, he has already broken his guts, what happened, I'm afraid he doesn't know!" ”

At this time, an ox cart on the north side of the hill came to this place, with an old farmer and two young men on it. One of the young men pulled the old cow and beckoned to the villagers from a distance, shouting: "Woe, woe! We went to Beixi with Ah Gong to exchange salt, Beixi Liu's Fort is gone, there is blood inside and outside, and the whole village seems to be dead......"

Soon after, more than a dozen families in the village gathered in the courtyard of the clan's old house, listening to the three intermittently recount what they had seen outside. The Shangxi Liu's Fort is more than ten miles away from the north of the hill, it is the largest gathering place of the surrounding people, there are hundreds of families, nearly 1,000 men, women and children, and they are all gone.

"Ahsan, what do you think is going on?"

Although the signs were already very clear, the old clan Ah Gong still wanted to ask the middle-aged farmer He Shan with a little luck.

Seeing that the villagers were all looking at him, He Shan's face was even more worried, and he said in a trembling voice: "What other evil things can be?" It must have been killed and robbed! This shouldn't be done by ordinary bandits, it should be a group of soldiers. It should be that the battle is fought in the township, and those soldiers have few people and few people, so they will take the villagers to replenish them. Grandpa, let's go, Liu's Fort is only more than ten miles away from our Zhuangzi, and now Zhuang Xiao is not seen, and there may be remnants of the fort to lead soldiers to rob our Zhuangzi later......"

"How could it be ......?"

"Impossible, our Zhuangzi has no enmity with that Liu's Fort......"

"It takes more than two months for the seedlings in the field to ripen......"

"If they dare to come, then desperately!"

As soon as He Shan's voice fell, the villagers shouted separately, although the words were different, but there was only one core, that is, they couldn't bear to abandon this cold homeland and leave their hometown.

"Shut up!"

The grandfather waved the bamboo cane in his hand, and after a broken drink, the shouting inside and outside the house stopped, but before he could open his mouth to say anything, a strange sound suddenly sounded outside Zhuangzi, from far to near, gradually clear.

"Yes, it's a horse...... The sound of horses' hooves...... It's late, it's late! ”

Hearing this sound, He Shan's face was already pale.

"It's a good time, the strength will come out with me, let's go fight with these dog thieves!"

A young man shouted and pulled out a rusty wood knife pinned to his ribs, his eyes flashing with a bit of excitement.

"I'm going to die! You're going to kill the whole village......"

Seeing this, He Shan, who had been wilting, suddenly roared, stood up and slapped the young man, and then the corners of his lips trembled: "If there is any food in the village, bring it to the basket, and the young one will pull the young one, and quickly run to the back of the stream, and a few people will escape." Men and women in their forties, follow me to deliver food with my grandfather......"

He Shan erupted suddenly, so that the villagers were frightened, and for a time no one objected, and the entry and exit were chaotic. No matter how much He Shan shouted, he couldn't restrain these villagers who were already frightened. At this time, a group of hundreds of knights had already waded through the stream and rushed into the Zhuangzi.

"Who is talking about the village? See you soon! ”

Hundreds of powerful soldiers reined in front of the village and shouted condescendingly.

Seeing those soldiers wearing armor, swords, bows and guns, the villagers were even more frightened, and the young people who had been shouting desperately before were also trembling with feather with feat, and they didn't dare to speak. In the end, He Shan stepped forward tremblingly, and knelt down a few feet away from the knights, and stepped forward on his knees and said in a trembling voice: "Xiao, Xiaomin is the leader of Zhuangmin, no, I don't know what the prince has to use?" If, if it is eaten, it will be provided by the family, and I only hope that the prince will not hurt the villagers......"

"This owner is interesting!"

Among the knights, there was a young knight who was in seventeen or eighteen for a year, and he was obviously the leader of this group of knights, and he couldn't help but smile in surprise when he heard He Shan's reply, although this villager was shocked and trembling in words, but he could still express the meaning clearly, which was rare.

"It turned out to be the head of the township here, so there was no need to be alarmed, so he got up and stepped forward to answer. If there is edible horse feed in the village, and prepare it first, we will take a short rest and will not harm the villagers. ”

While speaking, the knights divided into more than 20 horses, around the village to swim in all directions, and more than 20 people entered the village to swim, and then went out to say that there was no danger, so everyone dismounted.

Seeing that these knights did not immediately kill, He Shan was a little relieved, and now that there was no hope of escaping, and he was afraid of angering these soldiers, he hurriedly summoned men and women Ding Zhuang to clean up all the houses and welcome these soldiers inside.

Since there are villagers who come forward to work for them, the soldiers will divide several people to instruct these villagers to drink horses, sweat, and mix feeding. The young soldier commander pulled He Shan to sit in front of the courtyard of the old clan house, frowned and inquired about the countryside and the situation of the mountains and rivers, especially focusing on the abduction and burning of Liu's Fort on the north side of the hill.

"These thieves are so disgusting that they don't even spare their baby baby! If it can be traced and discovered, the thieves will be cut off and angry! ”

The soldiers sat on the ground and talked among themselves, and there was a lot of indignation in their expressions.

Hearing these discussions, He Shan knew that these cavalrymen were not the group that slaughtered Liu's Fort, but he did not dare to relax, he had also left his hometown for a few years before, and knew that in this world, there would be no good kind of people who held soldiers, and if they were slightly angered, their entire Zhuangzi would suffer a catastrophe.

Therefore, for the young commander's question, he racked his brains and answered all questions, and after a while, he saw that there was no lack of harmony between the commander's questions and answers, so he had the courage to ask: "I don't know where the prince and the others came from?" ”

"We are the king under the command of the governor of Huainan Shendu, I don't know if the owner of the village can hear it?"

The young commander replied with a smile, and there was no lack of pride in his expression.

"Huainan Wangshi? Isn't it Tiansheng fat ointment, Huainan of Jiangliu Valley Rice? This, this is all from the people of Liu's Fort, saying that Huainan is a paradise in the sky......"

Hearing He Shan say this, the surrounding soldiers immediately burst out laughing, and the young soldier commander patted He Shan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "What the owner said is good, we are from Huainan from the Paradise of Heaven." Shen Du led the army of 100,000 Wang Shi, who had gone north to Xingyang and had recovered several counties, but there were still thieves fleeing to the countryside to cause harm, so they pursued and extinguished. If the villagers can provide traces of the thieves, after extermination, the governor's office will be rewarded. Since then, the villagers can also return to the king's religion, live and work in peace and contentment, and be good at cultivating the soil. ”

When He Shan heard this, he didn't feel much, they were fortunate that their villagers were not harmed by the army, and how dare they expect any reward. It's just that when he saw that this soldier commander was well-dressed and his saber was cold, he knew that he was not ordinary, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The prince is full of good use, and he must be a famous general!" ”

Hearing the careful compliment from the owner, the soldier commander couldn't help laughing and said, "I don't dare to be called a prince and a prince, I'm just a captain under the command of Shen Dudu." ”

There were soldiers next to him and said with a smile: "The name of the captain, the owner of the village may not know, but I and the general of the department Guo Yu Guo Zhijun, I don't know if the owner of the village has ever heard of it?" ”

"Guo, Guo Yuanjun?"

Hearing the words of the soldiers, not only He Shan himself, but also the other villagers who were boiling water in the nearby stove also stopped their movements and looked over, and some old people couldn't help but tremble and said: "Everyone, your princes are really General Guo's people?" General Guo has really led the army back to Xingyang? ”

Before he finished speaking, he was already in tears: "General Guo returned to the county, and the lives of the villagers can finally be sheltered......"
