Chapter 132

There was a chaotic sound of "crash la la la", several vigorous figures rushed out of the reed bushes, some brandishing swords, some holding bows and arrows, and ran towards Liang Xiao.

Immediately afterwards, Hu Ji also rushed out, holding a long sword, his eyes shining brightly.

Liang Xiao remained motionless, as if he hadn't seen it.

When the Lang officials upstairs saw it, they were shocked and rushed out of their hiding places, drawing their bows and shooting, trying to block with all their strength.They hadn't shot two arrows yet, "Whoosh, whoosh!" Several sharp arrows flew out from the reeds, hitting the backs of those figures.The rangers were not prepared at all and fell to the ground.

The rest of the rangers turned pale with fright, and couldn't care less about hurting Liang Xiao again, so they quickly stopped, raised their swords and shields, and turned to face the direction of the dark arrow.They never knew who this skilled archer was, and they all thought it was their companion, but they just kept it secret.He was secretly rejoicing, but he didn't expect that the other party would suddenly turn his eyes against him and start attacking his own people, and immediately lost his position.

Surrounded in the middle, Hu Ji's feet were a little weak, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead like green beans.At this point, if he didn't know that something happened, he would be too stupid.Liang Xiao's master?Among the rangers I recruited is Liang Xiao's master? !
Holding a bow, a figure stood up from the reeds sixty or seventy steps away, and limped over.Behind him, several strong men with vertebral hair tattoos followed closely.They walked up to Hu Ji and the others, suddenly raised their weapons, surrounded their prey like a pack of wolves, roared up, slashed and killed, and fell the frightened ranger to the ground in a short while, leaving only Hu Ji, who was fighting and dripping with cold sweat.

The strong men stepped forward, pulled the corpse aside, kicked Hu Ji down, and cleared a blood-stained road.Huan Yuan walked along this road step by step in front of Liang Xiao, stood still two steps away, and looked at Liang Xiao with a happy face.

Liang Xiao bowed and saluted. "master!"

"Boy, your archery skills are improving rapidly." Huan Yuan pointed to his blood-stained shoulder. "Your meeting gift is very good, I accept it."

"Uh—" Liang Xiao was embarrassed. "Master...are you injured? Is it okay?"

"Flesh wounds, I can't die." Huan Yuan said calmly, "Where is Zhongli?"

"He caught Mr. Yan. But he can't make the decision, so I have to come to invite master. Master..."

"You don't need to say anything." Huan Yuan stretched out his hand to stop Liang Xiao. "I have a rough idea of ​​what you want to say. If Yan Zhu wants to survive, he has only one choice: come with me and listen to our request. Do you dare to go?"

Liang Xiao was stunned for a moment, then asked back: "Is the master in charge of the food? You take care of the food, and I will go."

Huan Yuan was stunned, couldn't help laughing, and stretched out his hand to give Liang Xiao the back of his head. "Xiao Zhuzi, you are still so generous after becoming a Lang Guan. Well, go and tell Yan Zhu that if he is willing to go with me, I will guarantee his life. If he refuses to go, kill him now." he."

"Okay. Master, please wait a moment, I will tell Lord Yan." Liang Xiao turned and entered the post house.

Huan Yuan stood in front of the post house, exposed to the bows and arrows of the officials, but his face was calm.The Lang officials looked at each other in blank dismay, not even daring to vent their anger.This person is Liang Xiao's master, and he has a sound shooting skill that is several times better than Liang Xiao's. They are not opponents at all.Even if Huan Yuan stood in front of them undefended, they did not dare to attack easily.

Liang Xiao relayed Huan Yuan's words to Yan Zhu.To Liang Xiao's surprise, Yan Zhu agreed without much hesitation. "In that case, I'll go with him to see what Minyue is really like."

Wei Qing rushed over, and after hearing the news, he immediately said, "I will protect my lord."

"I'll go too." Qin Ge said weakly.He glared at Zhong Liqi: "I still want to compete with Zhong Lijun in an open and honest manner."

"Accompany you at any time." Zhong Liqi curled his lips in disdain, and pushed Yan Zhu. "Let's go."

Yan Zhu got up and was about to go out when Liang Xiao stopped him with his hand and gave Yan Zhu a wink. "Master Yan, you are sharing the worries of the imperial court, disregarding safety and risk, and going to negotiate with the Yue bandits. Sincerity is respectable, but you have to make arrangements. In case the Yue bandits don't believe what they say..."

Yan Zhu suddenly realized, coughed quickly, and sat down again.

Zhong Liqi's face darkened, and he was about to be violent when he stepped forward.Qin Ge was furious, drew his sword and stepped forward, Liang Xiao stretched out his hand to stop him, and cupped his hands at Zhong Liqi. "Uncle Zhongli, Mr. Yan is a person who keeps his promise. Since he promised to go with you, he will definitely go. You don't have to worry."

Zhong Liqi glanced at Qin Ge, squeezed his fists, and said with a sneer, "It's better. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless and killing you three little sticks."

Zhong Liqi was nearly forty years old, and Liang Xiao and others were all in their twenties, so Xiao Zhuzi had no choice but to pinch his nose when he scolded him.Qin Ge, who had the strongest melee combat ability, was seriously injured. Liang Xiao was notoriously scumbag in melee combat ability. Wei Qing was better than him, but in front of Zhong Liqi, he was also a scumbag.It is simply an impossible task to rescue Yan Zhu from Zhong Liqi.

Yan Zhen called Wang Xing and asked him to tell the governor of Kuaiji and the captain that he would go to negotiate with Minyue. If there was no news after ten days, he would ask the prefect of Kuaiji to report to the court and ask the emperor to send troops to attack.

Then, he sent another Lang official to Houshan to inform Li Jiao that he was going to Fujian and Vietnam in person, and asked Li Jiao to rush back to Jiangdu and Huainan, and asked Jiangdu King Liu Fei and Huainan King Liu An to send troops to prepare food and grass, and be ready to send troops to cooperate with the court at any time. The army conquest.

Although Yan Zhu's complexion was a little ugly and his voice was a little hoarse, his mood was still calm.He sat in the room and arranged things one by one.Except for Liang Xiao and the others, everyone else was downstairs and couldn't see what was going on in the room at all. They only knew that an enemy had sneaked up to Yan Zhu's side and the situation was critical.Under such circumstances, Yan Zhu could still make arrangements calmly, which finally let the panicked people breathe a sigh of relief.

In this way, Yan Zhu's helpless act of being held hostage has become a heroic act of risking himself.His nominal task was to mediate with restraint. Although he did not see the prefect of Kuaiji and went to Minyue first, it was a bit unruly, but it was reasonable.As for his counter-insurgency mission, he explained it to the emperor himself.

After making the arrangements, Yan Zhu changed into clean clothes, and under the awe-inspiring eyes of Wang Xing and others, he walked out of the gate of the post house with his head held high, and followed Huan Yuan onto the boat hidden among the reeds.Liang Xiao and Wei Qing followed closely, inseparable.

The sun jumped out of the horizon, and the lake surface was floating with golden light and shadows. Liang Xiao, who had been tossing all night, stood at the bow of the boat, looked at the sparkling lake surface, and watched the Wangjiang Station gradually going away, and sighed softly.

On the open space in front of the post house, Hu Ji was limp on the ground.All the knight-errants he brought had been killed, and he was the only one left. Li Jiao would take him to Jiangdu to meet Jiangdu King Liu Fei and Jiangdu Prime Minister Zheng at that time.He didn't know how the mission became like this, but he knew that his end would be miserable.

Who is Liang Xiao's master, when did he sneak in, and where did those people who look like barbarians come from.

Hu Ji was puzzled.
