Soldiers come to the world

Chapter 3 The Big Bet

It was getting brighter, and the sun was shining into the woods. Liu Jian, who was hiding on a big tree, slowly opened his eyes. His throat hurt, and he couldn't help but think of what happened last night.

Killing two Cao soldiers last night was the most thrilling encounter he had encountered in this era, even surpassing being driven to attack the Yellow Turban Army.

If the two soldiers of Cao Jun hadn't looked down on carelessness at the beginning, he would definitely not be a match for the two of them, and he would definitely die. Now that I think about it, I feel scared for a while.

He thought of the skin bag again, Liu Jian sat up suddenly, and took the skin bag hanging on the tree behind him, because of this skin bag, he almost lost his life, wondering if the contents inside were worth his efforts.

First he took out the dagger, which had no sheath, and simply wrapped it with a piece of cloth. He then took out a heavy small square box from the leather bag. The box was carved from high-quality golden nanmu, with various flower patterns. It was very delicate, and Liu San suddenly became excited. Could it be that there are some gold jewels in the box?

Almost holding his breath, he opened the box carefully. The box was made of golden brocade as the inner cushion. The brocade was tied in a knot. When the bag was tied with something, he untied the brocade knot. Inside was a bronze official seal with a tortoise as a button. , square and flat, only the size of a fist.

It turned out to be an official seal, Liu Jian felt a little disappointed, and looked at other items, there was a letter and a scroll of bamboo slips, nothing of value.

He took out the copper seal again, squinted his eyes and looked at the sun for a moment, and could barely recognize the seal characters on it, 'Jin Ping Ting Hou Yin'.

This turned out to be the seal of the Marquis. He gasped, only then did he realize that the identities of the people who were killed yesterday were not simple.

Liu Jian couldn't help but looked up at a boulder under the tree, and saw the man in white sitting on the boulder, staring blankly at the rising sun.

It seemed that he was just sitting like this before dawn, looking very preoccupied, but Liu Jian could also understand that everyone who walked with him died, and he must be very sad.

Liu Jian jumped down from the tree, walked slowly in front of him, and put the skin bag on the boulder beside him, "Give this back to you! It's useless to me."

The man in white sighed, everyone is dead, so what's the point of giving it to him?

Thank you brother! "

The man in white took out the letter and the bamboo slips from the leather pouch. The letter was written on fine linen paper. He opened it and read it again, with a wry smile on his lips. At the beginning, he swore to the lord that he would bring Mr. Jing back to Xiangyang. How did he go back and explain to the master.

"Who is this...Jin Pingtinghou?" Liu Jian asked curiously.

"It's my lord's younger brother, and my lord is Jingzhou Mu." For Liu Jian's sake of saving him, the man in white didn't hide anything.

"Oh!"

Only then did Liu Jian realize that the Liu Zhou Mu he was talking about was Liu Biao, but he was still a little strange, Liu Biao's younger brother must be at least 50 or [-] years old!The man in the bullock cart is obviously a young man.

"The one who died on the bullock cart yesterday is...your lord's younger brother?"

"No, it's his son, that is, my lord's nephew."

The man in white sighed, "I was ordered by my lord to go to my hometown in Shanyang County and take him to Xiangyang. I didn't expect to encounter Cao cavalry patrolling last night, but... I was killed by them, alas!"

'nephew! '

Only then did Liu Jian suddenly realize that the boy was Liu Biao's nephew, and he was killed by Cao Jun halfway, which was really unexpected.

Liu Jian sighed and asked again: "Then what are you going to do now?"

"What else can I do? I have no face to see the lord, so I can only abandon my wife and children and flee to the end of the world."

After finishing speaking, the man in white stood up and bowed deeply to Liu Jian, "I am very grateful to Wuxiu in Xiajingzhou for being rescued by the young master. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely repay the young master."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the leather bag and turned to leave, but Liu Jian stopped him, "Please stay!"

The man in white turned around and asked, "Is there anything else you want, my lord?"

Liu Jian glanced at the hilt of the sword sticking out of the skin, and said with a smile, "If the dagger is useless, can you give it to me?"

He was extremely impressed by the sharpness of the dagger last night.

"can!"

The man in white handed him the dagger, and Liu Jian took it, "Thank you very much."

He liked this short sword very much in his heart, and swiped it lightly, but unfortunately he lost the scabbard last night, so he had to get another scabbard.

"Young master, there will be a period later."

The man in white turned around and left, but just after taking two steps, a thought suddenly popped out of his mind, son!Fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, is this God saving himself?

He turned around suddenly, his eyes widened, and he looked Liu Jian up and down. He had a similar figure and a similar age.

"You...what's your name? Where are you from?" the man in white asked tremblingly.

"My name is Liu Jian, and I am a hunter in the mountains."

"Your surname is Liu too."

The eyes of the man in white slowly lit up, it was God's will!

Thinking of his wife and children at home, Wu Xiu gritted his teeth and suddenly made up his mind. He knelt down and saluted, "Jingzhou Shu Zuo Wu Xiu begs you one thing!"

He stared at Liu Jian, his eyes showed the meaning of pleading, Liu Jian thought of something, and he also thought of something, and his heart began to become eager.

"What's the matter with you? Tell me!"

"I beg you to pretend to be my young master and go to Xiangyang with me."

. . . . . . . . .

"Master, you must forget your original name, remember! Your name is Liu Jing, you are 16 years old, and you are from Gaoping County, Shanyang County. You must keep your tongue tight and make no mistakes."

On a mountain road going north, Wu Xiu was teaching some of the most important things over and over again. If this kid was exposed, his life would be in danger.

Liu Jian smiled and said: "My name is Liu Jing, I remember, but I remember Liu Biao's word Jingsheng, why is my name not taboo?"

"You can't mention uncle's name, never mention it, you must remember this."

Seeing that his attitude was very serious, Liu Jian also put away his jokes and nodded. He also warned himself that Liu Jian was his name in his previous life, and he was dead. He is called Liu Jing in this life.

Wu Xiu began to take a serious attitude, and said again: "Your uncle gave you your name. He loved you very much, so he gave you the Jing character in his calligraphy. You are a generation of jade characters, so you are called Jing."

Liu Jian. . .No!From now on, he is called Liu Jing, and he must forget the name of Liu Jian in his previous life. He silently warned himself that if he wanted to survive in the Three Kingdoms era, he must have an identity belonging to this era.

Liu Biao's nephew had this opportunity, he would seize it no matter what.

He repeated his name in his heart, 'Liu Jing, this is your new beginning. '

After bowing his head and thinking for a moment, Liu Jing frowned and said, "Actually, I think there is a big loophole here. For example, my parents always know me! What about the family members at home? As long as they are exposed as soon as they meet, how should I deal with it?"

Wu Xiu smiled, "You don't have to worry about this. Your father passed away seven years ago, and your mother died of illness last year, so uncle thought of taking you to Jingzhou. As for the clansmen, they all came to Jingzhou several years ago. They don't necessarily know you, as long as you have a similar face, children will grow up!"

As he said that, he handed the letter to Liu Jing again, and said with a smile, "This is a letter from your uncle to your uncle. As a result, your uncle kicked your mother and son out the year before last. I don't know what he thought. Anyway, this letter is not Send it out, and bring it back, you can see for yourself!"

Liu Jing took the letter and read it carefully. The letter said that his nephew's father died early and his mother died of illness last year. Only when people visit him will they feel guilty.

Liu Jing nodded silently, and took a look at the bamboo slips. It turned out to be his Yuan slip, which is equivalent to the identity certificate of later generations. It has his birth horoscope and the names of his parents. It was given to Liu Biao to prove his identity. .

"Then what about my accent? I don't know how different it is from my hometown's accent?"

"Your accent is a bit like Taishan County. Although there are some differences, it's not a big problem. You can say that you have been studying in Taishan. I know there are many schools there, and I will cover it for you. It should be ok. Deal with the past."

"I see! But I still have a few questions."

"It's okay, just ask. We have to think about the details so that there will be no problems. By the way, there are also various etiquettes and titles. I taught you last night. Don't forget."

The two talked all the way to the north. At this time, they were still in the territory of Runan County. After passing through Rang Mountain, they walked more than a hundred miles and entered the boundary of Jingzhou.

. . . . . .

The county seat of Runan County is Ancheng County. About two hundred miles north of Ancheng County, there is a hilly area with undulating mountains and a height of about a hundred feet. This hilly area with a radius of tens of miles is called Rang Mountain.

Liu Jing and Wu Xiu didn't have horses, so they didn't walk very fast. They didn't eat all day and night, and they were dizzy from hunger, but there was a wilderness around them, and they couldn't even find a hare.

It wasn't until dusk that they saw Rang Mountain from a distance. It was almost dark at this time, and the two of them had just walked into a hill to find a place to forage for the night. —' made a sharp noise.

"Catch them!"

Nearly a hundred Yellow Turban soldiers ambushing on both sides of the road rushed out from front, back, left, and right. Before they could react, they surrounded them. Dozens of bows and arrows were drawn up and aimed at them.

With a little experience, Wu Xiu quickly raised his hand and shouted: "We are just ordinary people, please don't hurt us."

"nonsense!"

A village chief strode out, pointed at the two of them with his sword, and shouted sharply: "You must be spies of Cao Jun, arrest me."

At this time, Liu Jing calmly said: "Uncle Liu Huang is here, I am his nephew, I want to see him!"

A few soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army who were about to rush forward stopped in their tracks, and they all turned their heads to look at the head of the village. The head of the village was stunned, but he was actually the nephew of the Liu royal family. He hesitated for a moment, and immediately ordered a soldier in a low voice, the soldier walk away.

Wu Xiu was surprised, is Liu Bei here?He came from Shanyang County, but just passing through Runan County. He didn't know that Liu Bei had returned to Runan County. He never thought that Liu Bei would be here. If Liu Bei was here, things would be easier.

Liu Jing sneered secretly, if Liu Bei was really here, things would be troublesome, and they would definitely be attacked by Cao Jun. He claimed to be Liu Bei's nephew, but he didn't want to be humiliated like being bundled into rice dumplings.

At this time, a general galloped up on horseback. He was about seven feet five years old, nearly forty years old, and had a big beard. His arrival caused the soldiers to move aside respectfully.

This person is Liu Pi, the leader of the Runan Yellow Turban Army. He and Liu Bei were killed by Cao Jun. He led more than [-] remnants of the army and fled here.

He thought it was Guan Ping, and Liu Bei sent them to look for them, so he galloped there on horseback, but it turned out to be two people he didn't know. , "Who are you, dare to pretend to be the emperor's uncle and nephew, are you tired of working?"
