Bao Cheng was very comfortable when he heard this, and hurriedly helped the old woman up.

He furrowed his brow and was silent for a while.

He knew very well that this group of water bandits was numerous and familiar with the terrain, even with the help of Yao Qi, a master, with the help of the two of them, it was not a good chance to rescue all the girls.

The plan for now is to return to the capital for help.

He turned his head to look at the old and the young.

It was easy for him to pull his legs and leave, in case the water bandits came back to harm these two people, and these two people did not resist, and told everything about today's events, wouldn't it be that the water bandits were prepared in advance, which is not very good.

He grinded his teeth, anyway, it wasn't his own silver, and it didn't hurt to spend it.

He poured out all the silver ingots in his bag, stuffed them into the old woman's hand, and said in a low voice: "Mother-in-law, you keep this silver, this place is more than forty miles away from the capital, you can take the second girl to the capital." ”

The old woman's hands trembled violently, and her voice was hoarse: "Then, that son, my eldest girl, we are leaving, what should my eldest girl do?" ”

Bao Cheng twisted his eyebrows and thought for a long time before he said: "Mother-in-law, you go all the way to the capital, and when you enter the city, you will find the Jingzhao Mansion Office and ask to see Lord Shaoyin, and you will say that Yao joined the army and asked you to come." So saying, he took out a copy of his name and gave it to the old woman carefully: "If they do not believe, show them this." ”

The old woman held the silver ingot in one hand and the famous post in the other, and burst into tears: "But the eldest girl, my eldest girl." ”

Bao Cheng was already a little impatient, and said patiently: "Mother-in-law, I want to quickly find a way to save people first, you will take the second girl to the capital slowly, after I save the eldest girl, I will send her to Jingzhao Mansion, you enter the city, go to the Jingzhao Mansion Office to wait for my good news." ”

The old woman opened her mouth to say something, but saw that Bao Cheng had already untied the reins of the two horses, turned over on the horse, spurred the horse, and drove the two horses away.

It was noon, the hottest time of the day, and the caravan travelers were resting in the shade of the trees on the side of the official road, and they galloped by without squinting, kicking up dust and choking people to cough again and again.

Someone scolded loudly behind him, and Bao Cheng didn't have time to turn back, crackling the horsewhip, and the four hooves rose and fell.

He didn't feel the bumps on the horse's back, his waist didn't hurt, his legs didn't hurt anymore, he didn't even bother to drink a sip of water, and he galloped from the bright sun to the twilight.

The evening breeze blew slowly, and in the kind twilight, Bao Cheng on the back of a bumpy and undulating horse, saw the approaching towering city gate, and the huge word "Mingde" on the city gate seemed to him like a life-saving charm.

The two horses neighed and rushed into the bustling crowd, startled by a panicked and frightened scream, Bao Cheng took out the token of the internal security envoy in his bag, held it high above his head, and shouted hoarsely: "The internal security division handles the case, the idlers retreat, the internal security division handles the case, the idlers retreat." ”

When the people who entered and left the city heard this, they all dodged as if they had seen a ghost.

When the horse rushed to the city gate, Bao Cheng could no longer hold on, rolled off the horse's back, and fell heavily to the ground.

When the soldiers on the side saw this, they were shocked and hurried over to help him up.

Bao Cheng's face turned pale, and large drops of sweat slid down his forehead, he stuffed his internal guard token into the hands of the soldiers, and panted: "Hurry, hurry, go to the Internal Security Division, ask to see the envoy, just say, just say, there is an urgent case, hurry, go quickly." ”

The soldier was stunned for a moment, then quickly came back to his senses, clenched the token, led a fast horse and turned over on the horse, shouting all the way away.

Bao Cheng watched the man and the horse melt into the gorgeous remnant sun, let out a long breath, collapsed on the ground and slowly closed his eyes.

I'm so tired, what wakes him up every day to work hard is not ideals, nor poverty, but life.

I don't know how long it took, it seemed that a long time had passed, Bao Cheng felt a coolness spread across his face, and he slowly opened his eyes and saw the gently swaying ging ginger tent.

The treasures on the top of the tent were connected together, and he was a little dizzy when he saw it.

He closed his eyes, turned his head, and when he opened them again, he saw the candle flame dancing by the window, and the sky outside the window was already dark.

His thoughts froze for a moment, and then he remembered something, sat up straight, lifted the brocade quilt and was about to get out of bed.

"Eh, what are you doing, you're about to come down as soon as you wake up, and do you want to faint again?" Jin Yu stopped Bao Cheng.

Bao Cheng's face was still a little pale, his spirit was not good, his lips were dry and cracked with a few bloody wounds, and as soon as he opened his mouth, it hurt badly, he couldn't help but say in pain: "Ah Qi, Yao joined the army, and he is running out of time." ”

Jin Yu pressed Bao Cheng's hand and nodded again and again: "I know, I know, I just saw you move a few times, I ordered someone to invite the adult to come over, don't worry, don't worry, what's the matter, wait for the adult to come." ”

As he spoke, he poured a cup of tea and handed it over, and continued: "Bao Gongzi drank some water first, his mouth was cracked and bleeding." ”

Bao Cheng drank a few sips of hot tea, and his heart was a little more comfortable, before he slowly settled down, leaned on the bed, closed his eyes slightly, and thought about how Han Changwan would clean him up if he lost Yao Qi.

Thinking about it like this, Sheng Sheng broke out in a cold sweat.

A burst of eager footsteps sounded, Han Changdui walked into the room like a gust of wind, and saw Bao Cheng wake up, he breathed a sigh of relief without missing a trace, and asked coldly: "What's the matter, what's wrong, Yao joined the army?" ”

Bao Cheng tried his best to calm down his frightened heart, and said the old woman's words without missing anything, and said eagerly: "My lord, although there are still three days to go, but the situation of the water bandits is unknown, and even the place where they settled is not clear, and the Jialing River is so big, I really can't start. ”

Han Changdui slammed the bed hard, who would have thought that such an accident would happen halfway.

He knew very well that with Yao Qi's skills, it would be easy to get out of the hands of a few water bandits, but she didn't, she obviously wanted to save that big girl, or she found something different, so she let the group of water bandits take her away.

Thinking of this, Han Changdui asked in a deep voice: "You can talk about the situation at that time carefully, especially what those people were dressed up and what horses they were riding." ”

Bao Cheng was a little embarrassed, he could see the dress of those people clearly, but he was a little unsure of what kind of horse he was riding.

Horses, they all have four legs and one tail, is there any difference?

He said with difficulty: "There are a total of nine people in those people, the leader is a scholar, thirty or forty years old, and the rest are all practitioners, but what kind of kung fu is, I can't see it, I just heard Yao Qi say that kung fu is not weak, Yao Qi said that one of them is a Hu person, and the others are Han, and the accent is the accent of Nanbianer." ”

Han Changwan frowned: "The accent of the south? Can you tell what the hell it is? ”

Bao Cheng licked his dry lips, and thought for a while, the group of people had a spicy hot pot with a mouth, they should all be from Sichuan, but what should Sichuan be called in this ancient period, he finally said with less certainty: "Humble duty, listen, like Jiannan Dao, Yizhou, yes, people from Yizhou." ”

Han Changdu's eyebrows frowned even tighter, and some suspicions flashed in his heart.

The news came yesterday evening that Han Changyun rested at the Lizhou Pavilion Station, and set off for Liangzhou early this morning, and this way must pass through the Jialing River.

Han Changyun and his party brought more than a hundred girls, but at this time, there was a wave of water bandits from Yizhou, plundering girls everywhere, planning to sacrifice to the river god.

This had to make him think a lot.

Han Changwan waved his hand over Jin Yu, took a pen and wrote a letter to him, and ordered in a cold voice: "Go see Leng Shaoyin immediately and invite him to come over." ”

Watching Jin Yu leave, Han Changdui turned his head to Bao Cheng and said, "If you think about it carefully, what else is special about those people, the more you say, the easier it will be for me to find their whereabouts." ”

Bao Cheng frowned, pondered for a long time, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he said eagerly: "My lord, those people are not very well dressed, some of their clothes are patched and patched, but the weapons in their waists are very good, and one of the Hu people's waist knives is full of gems, which is very valuable when they look at it." ”

Han Changdui was stunned: "What kind of waist knife is it?" ”

Bao Cheng gestured with his hand: "It is a knife about a foot long, like a crescent moon, and the scabbard is inlaid with red sapphire and turstone." ”

Han Changwan gave a rare smile: "You are very clear about what these girls like." ”

Bao Cheng smiled stupidly: "My lord, do the Hu people also use scimitars, I remember that the Turks use this thing best." ”

Han Changdui's expression was solemn and solemn, his hands unconsciously twisted the corners of his clothes, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Speaking with a Yizhou accent is not necessarily a Han person, a tall nose and deep eyes may not be a Hu person, and a scimitar with a scimitar in his waist is not necessarily a Turkic person.

There are too many things to see flowers in the fog in this world, and the difficult thing is how to clear the fog and find the real flower.

He stared for a moment and said lightly: "The scimitar can also be bought and sold, as long as it is silver, you can also use it." ”

"......" Bao Cheng was choked so uncomfortable that he couldn't imagine how Yao Qi communicated with this rotten piece of wood on weekdays.

Han Changwei remembered the matter of the horse again, and continued to ask Bao Cheng: "What kind of horse are they riding?" ”

"......" Bao Cheng stumbled for a moment, and described it as "a horse, it's a horse, four legs, and a tail." He couldn't say any more, and suddenly thought of a horse standing next to his horse, and suddenly said: "By the way, my lord, their horse, there is one, yes, that scholar rides the horse, which is stronger than the other horses, with thick legs and a large buttocks." ”

"......" Han Changdui was speechless.
