Mengguang climbed up the delicate golden roof of the cowhide fixed tent, and a golden light fell from the highest point. Cheng Shaogong walked into the big tent with a pair of black eyes Kexinrener was sitting in front of the silver mirror of the black box, talking and laughing.

On a jet black bun.

The hot water warmed the young general's skin, and the girl held a small sharp silver knife and carefully shaved off the stubble that just emerged for him. A jar of ointment with a fresh herbal aroma was opened, and the girl's tender fingers slowly stroked the man's white cheeks, to the beautiful jawbone, and then to the clear Adam's apple...

Cheng Shaogong's eyelids jumped when he saw it - how could a good and serious thing be done by these two people so that it seemed so indecent? !

When Cheng Shi, Cheng Zhi and his wife were like this, he looked very ordinary, but when he saw this situation, his body was numb. He touched his rough chin, and a nameless fire rose up. He stood at the entrance of the tent for a while, and the two were busy with you and me, but they didn't see it!

Hearing a heavy cough, Huo Cheng saw Cheng Shaogong standing by the door with a sullen face.

The young merchant quickly retracted his hands, called the third brother with a blushing face, and then pretended to clean up the silver knife and mirror box on the desk, Huo Budo smiled brightly: "The young palace is here, hurry up Come in and sit... I'll come when I go." The last half of the sentence was said to Shao Shang, then he got up and passed Shao Gong and walked out of the big tent.

Cheng Shaogong sat beside her sister and lowered her voice: "You didn't mess around last night."

"Third brothers, don't talk nonsense, Master Huo and I are both respectful people!" Shaoshang tried his best to put on a dignified face.

Cheng Shaogong groaned: "Hmph, keep the ceremony, Zhou Gong's ceremony is also a ceremony."

Shaoshang's face: "The third brother has the courage to tell him this again. I also admire the third brother for being a good man!"

Cheng Shaogong stared at her sister's face: "...if it's normal, you will recognize it as a bachelor, and then say 'the three brothers know that Zhou Gong's etiquette is also a etiquette, but also ask for so many things' ."

Shao Shang sat down on the Hu stool: "Tell me the truth, three brothers, I fell asleep yesterday before it was dark, and it was already dawn when I opened my eyes, what can I do, me. Mr. Huo... He also 'has nothing to do'... I don't believe the third brother, look, he slept there last night!"

Following the girl's fingers, Cheng Shaogong saw that there were signs of tossing and lying on the simple bed frame on the other side of the tent, he just let go, but he heard the tone of his sister There is actually a bit of regret in the middle, and it is unavoidable that he is angry. Just as he was about to open his mouth, Huo Budo had gone and returned, followed by four or five personal soldiers with food cages.

The personal soldiers were quick in their hands and feet, and in no time they laid out a large plate of small plates and a large pot of steaming corn porridge on the table, and then bowed and retired.

Cheng Shaogong is even more displeased—a senior general like Huo Budo, there are always several confidants inside and outside the tent to serve and guard, but Huo Budo just needs to go out of the tent to be called People, obviously they were sent away a few steps early, and they were not allowed to stand next to the tent. As for the reason, everyone knows it well, so don't ask.

"What are you brothers and sisters talking about?" Huo Budo gave a bowl of corn porridge to Shaoshang, and the second bowl to himself, and then handed the long spoon to Cheng Shaogong.

Shao Gong: ...don't be so obvious.

Shao Shang Gan smiled and said: "Hehe, nothing, nothing, just ask the third brother how tired he looks, maybe he didn't sleep well last night."

Shao Gong held a long spoon and gave her a sideways look.

Huo Budo picked up a burnt and fragrant sauce pork cake and gave it to Shaoshang, and said with a smile: "It's not that the third son didn't sleep well last night, he didn't sleep all night."

Shao Gong's action of scooping porridge made him surprised and asked. Cheng Shaogong replied in a muffled voice, "I went to chase Luo Jitong and his party last night."

"So the third brother has already asked? Oh, my father said that marching at night is the most dangerous, how can the third brother easily get involved in danger! It's piled up, which one confessed." Shao Shangxian Ask about the result of yesterday's friendly match.

Shao Gong Yu said: "Both confessed, but they were talking about the same place. I thought it was not too late, so I chased after him overnight."

Shao Shang was a little disappointed that the Luo family's soldiers were so unsteady: "Then... Has the third brother caught someone?" In fact, looking at Cheng Shaogong's face, she knew that he might have been blown away last night .

Sure enough, Cheng Shaogong shook his head: "When I arrived, the building was already empty."

The Shao Shang sighed softly, but said unfortunately: "Luo Jitong's people are on the alert, they just don't know what to do and what not to do. Oh, forget it, let's go back to the Luo family to settle accounts! Luo Jitong can He summoned hundreds of strong men to intercept the road, and his family should not get rid of it!"

Huo Budoubt said: "Luo Jitong is not without calculations, she is here to kill you at this time, one is the revolt of several counties in Shu County..."

The Cheng brothers and sisters sighed.

"Secondly, Luo Bin fell into a coma after falling from a horse and has not woken up. Yesterday, most of the soldiers from Luo's house were dowries who accompanied Luo Jitong to the northwest. Doubt complete.

"Xiaowei Luo fell off the horse? Could it be Mrs. Luo's hand? Oh, this woman is so cruel, that's her real father!" Cheng Shaogong smacked his tongue.

"Why did Shu County betray again? It was just recovered last year." It is not uncommon for Shao Shang to be cruel to Luo Jitong.

Huo Buqun replied: "This is strange. Shu has been separated for more than ten years. The rich and powerful families have enough money, grain, soldiers and horses. Xin couldn't stand the temptation of people with power, wealth and silk, so he started a rebellion, called himself the Great Sima, and attacked and killed everywhere, and the delinquents in the surrounding counties saw that the court was busy pacifying the rebellion, and they responded..."

"In the end, your Majesty has recaptured the land of Shu too quickly. After ten or eight years of fighting, it will be riddled with grievances from the people, and no one will be hurt. It's over." Shao Shang concluded.

Huo Budo laughed.

Cheng Shaogong spit out: "What are you talking about, the sooner the swordsmanship, the better, the longer it takes, not only life will be lost, but the court's money will also be wasted! Yuhou is not raising money They relocated tens of thousands of officials and people from Yanmen Shanggu and other counties to the east of Juyong Pass and Changshan Pass. My father said that the imperial court will attack the Xiongnu from the north in the next year, which is another huge amount of money to feed people and horses!"

Shao Shang said: "I know I know, I'm just saying it. Alas, everyone needs money and food everywhere, I said why Liangzhoumu is so short of manpower, so that Luo Jitong can be mixed into Yuzhou, and the ground is full Running around, it is estimated that he has dispatched a lot of Yuzhou troops to Sili." It is not easy to think about the old man.

When her thoughts came back, she said again, "However, no matter if the Luo Xiaowei was really injured or fake, and the innocent people died tragically, this account can't be forgiven lightly, no matter how great their Luo family is. in law!"

Huo Budo snorted softly: "Placing the honor and disgrace of the family on marriage is a matter of abandoning the root and chasing the last. Luo Bin is kind and soft-hearted, condoning evil women, it is even more difficult to become a great thing."

Shao Shang Ting smiled and praised loudly.

"...Hey, I'm afraid that Xiaowei Luo is not soft-hearted." Cheng Shaogong saw the eyes of the two and hurriedly said, "You may not know about this, I heard a few classmates talk about it. However, Mrs. Luo is the best among the daughters of the Luo family, regardless of her looks, talents, or reputation. Since Huo Hou released rumors that the two are irrelevant, there are many people who do not know why they want to marry."

Shao Shang said sourly: "I can't see that Luo Jitong is so popular. As soon as your forefoot is rejected by you, there will be an endless stream of people asking for marriage."

Huo Budo squinted: "You don't give in too much."

Cheng Shaogong teased: "If other women are repented of their marriage, people may have some bad guesses. But Mr. Huo..." He looked at the two at the same table playfully, "Manducheng knows it's wrong. Not in the Luo family, because the two of you have not been involved for so many years! I guess, Luo Xiaowei must be reluctant to lose a good family, so he condone Mrs. Luo."

The young businessman glanced at Huo Budo and muttered, "It's all your fault."

Huo Budo said two kind words in a soft and soft voice, but there was a third person by his side, so he could only cough lightly: "This is the end, what are your plans next?"

Shao Shang said: "Naturally, I will go to Xuan Niangniang's hometown next, but her last wish will be fulfilled."

"The capture of the Luo family can be brought back by reinforcements from Anguo County, and the prefect **** them back to Sili, but what should you do with these wounded soldiers in your family? Are you planning to send them to Anguo County as well? ? I think some of them are just minor injuries and just need a little rest."

Shao Shang's big eyes flashed: "Going back and coming back, it's too troublesome, it's better to go forward."

Huo Budo frowned and said, "Not to mention the wounded soldiers, after the war your troops always need to rest, and it is not appropriate to continue on their way."

"No..." Shao Shang's expression suddenly became embarrassed, "We continue to go south, and it will be less than two days' journey, and the west of the official road is, ahem, it's Yao The county is... the place where A Yao works."

"...Yao County." Huo Budo smiled lightly, "I forgot that it was Louyao's county seat."

Cheng Shaogong hid his face behind the pancake, secretly slandering: how could you forget, you didn't pay attention at all, anyway, Louyao has been defeated like a mountain, you just don't exist !

"Is this your original plan?" Huo Budo looked indifferent, "Following Mother Xuan's wishes, take a look at Louyao?"

"No, no, no!" Shao Shang continued, "There are always priorities, I originally planned to go ahead with the last wish of the Empress, and go to see Ah... and then to Louyao's on the way back. ...!"

Cheng Shaogong secretly said: Is this a big difference, you might as well not say it.

Huo Budo squinted his long eyes, and slowly pinched his palm on the desk: "Well, wait until you have nothing to do and then look at Louyao in order to 'good' reminiscence, you Well-intentioned."

, why don't you go and see!"

"How happy is he and He Zhaojun, and how will you stay if the husband and wife are not on good terms?"

"It's good to live well, of course it's good, I can't be happy for them, if it's not good..." Shaoshang said with difficulty, "Naturally advise them to live well! Marriage is not human, it is Yuan Shen, I plan to visit in the future too!"

Huo Budo blinked slightly and released his slender fingers: "That's right, old friend for many years, it's okay to take a look."

Young Shang hadn't let out a sigh of relief when Huo Buxuan suddenly said again: "Speaking of 'old friends', I think of the Queen Yue's invitation to a banquet that day, you told me that things will change over time. Are you willing to treat me as an 'old friend' when it disappears?"

Short businessman is hanging up again.

"So..." Huo Budo's expression gradually became unpleasant, "If you marry Yuan Shen, you will treat me like this in the future - when you are passing by on business, bringing your husband and children to visit me is unbearable. man of?!"

Cheng Shaogong silently backed away a little, and Shao Shang was almost speechless to ask the sky.

From the past, she felt that Huo Budo looked normal at ordinary times, spoke softly, and was polite, but only thought of herself was very strange, and could be jealous from any angle seamlessly; maybe You are nibbling on steamed buns, and his next sentence will mention that you don't know which of your predecessors made steamed buns at home.

I heard that the deceased Huo Chong and his wife were hearty, open-minded and generous people. Do you know from heaven that your youngest son has such a strange temperament? ! !

"...that was my ignorant idea before, and then I thought about it carefully." Shaoshang was serious, "I have made up my mind that if I marry Yuan Shen, I will never visit in the future. You, it's better not to see each other again."

Huo Budo became more and more unhappy, and snorted coldly.

Alas, in order to prevent Hong Xing from going out of the wall, it's better not to see you..." In the last half of the sentence, she was so angry that she murmured in a low voice.

Huo Buxuan's brows stretched, and regardless of the presence of others, he grabbed the girl's little hand and kissed it in the palm of his hand, and said gently: "You don't have to worry about Luo Jitong, I have a way to catch them - no need for you Crying for your own life." Speaking of the back, he stared at him, but he couldn't help but sneer.

Cheng Shaogong shook his skin and felt like he couldn't eat anything.

Cheng Shaogong, who fought with the wounded soldiers and eyelids, was left behind.

Huo Budo told Shao Shang that the Central Plains are densely populated, but in an inaccessible place such as the northwest of Mobei, after the army walks out of the pass, it is either an endless grassland or a desert that covers the sky. There were no people to inquire about, and no signposts to identify, so the scouts developed a powerful ability to figure out the general whereabouts of the enemy based on only a few traces.

At this moment, the sun had just risen, and it was only a night away from yesterday afternoon's battle. Several experienced scouts quickly found out the whereabouts of Luo's troops.

After riding for half a day, everyone finally found a spacious mansion under a hidden mountain, which seemed to be a place where a large and prosperous family lived. Shao Shang's spirit was lifted, Huo Budo whispered: "It seems that Luo Jitong has more than one place to stay."

"What about the family who lived here before?" Shaoshang wondered, "Could it be that he sold the house and left."

Huo Budo looked calm: "...let them go out and reveal their whereabouts, I'm afraid not."

Shao Shang's heart sank.

Sure enough, the scouts who were groping around the mountains came back to report and found several corpse pits that had been buried for several days.

"It's my fault, Luo Jitong, a vicious person, should be removed as soon as possible." Huo Budo sighed lightly, because he despised women too much. I have to say, he still couldn't turn his face ruthlessly.

At this time, the Liang Qiu brothers who went to explore the road and others came back, Liang Qiufei was surprisingly silent, Liang Qiuqi looked puzzled, clasped his fists and said: "Report to the young master, the people are indeed here. ...but, but they are all dead!"

Huo Buxuan was alert, and immediately rode his horse into the col, Shaoshang quickly followed.

The more we went inside, the more corpses with mutilated limbs, Shaoshang recognized that they were the Luo family horses who fought with him yesterday, and several martial arts warriors were not spared, one of them was inserted vertically in the long. On the spear, it disappeared from the waist down.

"Why... so. Luo, Luo Jitong...?" Shao Shang's voice trembled.

She is not a girl who has never seen a big battle, but such a terrible scene of death is only seen in her life. No matter the hunting house in Huaxian County or the fierce battle yesterday, everyone focused on annihilating the enemy. Wherever they cut it, it counted, but in front of her, the stumps were broken and the brains were flowing. She has not seen a few complete bodies so far. It's not just a massacre, it's a slaughter!

Walking into the big room in the middle, the floor seemed to be soaked with blood, and a stench of cold and rotting wounds spread from the depths of hell. Huo Budoubt wanted Shaoshang to avoid him, but Shaoshang insisted on going in. She said firmly in her eyes, "I'm not what I used to be. I'm not afraid of having nightmares. Even if I have nightmares, I still have you."

Huo Budo nodded lightly, grabbed her hand and walked in.

The outer room was full of the corpses of Luo Jitong's henchmen, and the four maids were hanging or lying on the passage into the inner room. Finally, Luo Jitong's corpse came into view - her head was lowered, and her limbs were cut off. , cut off both ears and lips, and nailed it to the wall with a spear.

"This is before death...or after death..." Shaoshang forced himself to be calm, almost unsteady.

Huo Budo took a few steps forward to check, then turned around and said, "She was cut off first, let her struggle for a while, and then nailed it to the wall of the house alive." He took a few steps back, and then Looking around, "This situation should not exceed two hours - it should have happened in the middle of the night yesterday."

After saying this, he took Shaoshang out and stepped out of the **** house, even though there was still a **** smell outside, Shaoshang felt as if he had escaped from heaven .

Huo Budo caressed her back smoothly: "...this is not an ordinary interception."

"Have you seen the corpses all over the ground? In fact, this is not intentional killing, but well-trained dead soldiers. A rope hook and a scythe-shaped sharp blade besiege a person. Between the electric light and flint, the enemy's limbs can be restrained, and then the head will be cut off, and the limbs will be cut off. The more broken it is."

"How do you know?" Shaoshang looked at him blankly.

There are a few extremely long scars that meander like, "I learned from it when I killed Gongsun Xian."

"You, you..." Shaoshang was heartbroken and rushed over to stroke his arm. After a few months, the scars are still so shocking, you can imagine the serious injury at that time, she trembled, "Is there any other place?"

Huo Budo smiled reassuringly: "There is one place on the leg, nothing else. Don't worry, it's all flesh wounds, not the internal organs." In fact, this kind of trick is not It's incomprehensible, but it's just a force to drop ten sessions. You have more hands than the opponent, and your physical strength is stronger than that of the opponent. When several ropes and hooks are hacked together, they are grabbed back, and the enemy can be broken by pulling as many enemies as possible.

Huo Budo said nothing. What he thought in his heart was that if the two of them were destined to become husband and wife in the future, she would know the pain she suffered for her.

Shao Shang looked at him, suddenly understood what he meant, and cried: "You...you..."

Six years ago, he used all his scheming, coaxing and showing weakness, deceiving and intimidating. But six years later, he would rather endure in silence and refuse to reveal his grievances.

Huo Budo rubbed her hair, put his arms in his arms, and explained with a smile: "You have to feel sorry for me, there will be time in the future. What matters now is, why did Gongsun's corpse die? appear here?"

Shao Shang raised his head, with tears still hanging from his eyelashes, and exclaimed: "They are here to hunt you down?!"

"Then they should come to take care of you and kill Luo Jitong for what?" Huo Budo shook his head, "Luo Jitong died tragically, why would I miss a meal?"

Shao Shang burst into laughter and beat him: "I hate it, don't make me laugh." Then he said in doubt, "But, I haven't heard that the Luo family has a grudge with the Gongsun family."

"No." Huo Budo looked solemn, "It's just that other people are strong in martial arts. With Luo Jitong's mere skills, why kill to such a scene."

"What should I do now? Why don't I go back to Mrs. Qu." Shaoshang had no clue.

Huo Budo said slowly: "No, let's go to Yao County."
