Dong Zhi stepped forward, broke the locks, and checked them one by one. The largest one contained a jadeite cabbage, which was carved so vividly that it was worth a lot of money. It was probably prepared as a birthday gift. Some jewelry are also exquisite and unusual, and they are probably intended to be given to the family members of the Huang family. It seems that this big shopkeeper has also put a lot of thought into it.It's a pity that when we arrived at the door of our house, we encountered this catastrophe.

One of the one-foot-long wooden boxes contained a wood-carved statue with two heads and four arms. The statue's face did not resemble a human face, it was terrifying and ferocious.

When Lao Lu saw the statue, his expression changed slightly, and he asked, "Where did this statue come from?"

Dong Zhi thought for a while, and said: "It seems that the shopkeeper bought this on the way back. By the way, when we were on the waterway, on a boat on the Wei River, an old man in the antique business sold it to the big shopkeeper. He said it was collected by barbarians. Millennium baby."

Old Lu said in a deep voice: "I guess this is the reason why you were hunted down. At first glance, this thing looks like a statue worshiped by barbarians, that is, the two-headed god that the barbarians chanted just now. This thing is similar to what I saw when I was calming down the chaos in the southwest The barbarian god statues are very similar."

Zhang Suidao: "Is it the kind of statue you said can't be burned?"

Lao Lu nodded, took out a fire folder, asked Dong Zhi to gather some dry firewood, lit it, and threw the statue on it.

The three stood by the fire, looked at the statue in the fire, burned for a long time, and kicked the statue out on the old road. They stepped forward and saw that the statue was unscathed, but it was blackened by the smoke. But there was no sign of burning.

Dong Zhi went forward and knocked a few times with the long knife, the sound was the sound of wood, he slashed heavily with the blade a few times, but only a few white marks were left, and the grain of the wood could be seen when he looked carefully.

Zhang Sui was amazed, and stepped forward to lift an arm of the statue with his right hand. He was about to study it carefully, when he suddenly felt the heat of his right fingertips, and a panic wailed in his mind. Before he could react, the statue suddenly let out a crisp sound. It rang, and then it shattered all over the place!

Everyone stared dumbfounded at Zhang Sui who was holding half of the statue's arm! !

Zhang Sui was also a little dumbfounded! !

Zhang Sui never thought that he just lifted the statue lightly, and the statue shattered. Looking at the carved wooden arm in his hand, he found that there were also cracks.Throwing it on the ground, it immediately broke into several sections.

Zhang Sui was about to say something when there was a rush of horseshoes from the direction of Kunzhou City.

Soon, a group of knights dressed in green armor, with sharp blades on their waists, short crossbows on their backs, and shields appeared, just like the green guards mentioned in the old intersection.

The leading knight saw a pile of dead bodies, and two of the three standing beside the carriage were covered in blood. He waved his hand, and with a whistling sound, the knights around him immediately took off the short crossbow on their backs, surrounded them in a half-moon formation, and pointed at Three people beside the carriage.

The leading knight shouted: "Who are you? What's going on here?"

The three of them looked at each other, Dong Zhi dropped the long knife in his hand, raised his hands and said, "My lord, Dong Zhi, is the guard of Huang's House, protecting the chief shopkeeper of Huang's South Sword Road back to Kunzhou to celebrate Mr. Huang's birthday. I encountered barbarians robbing the road here, the shopkeeper was killed, and the other guards were killed, these two are passing by and helping each other."

Lao Lu also raised his hand and took two steps forward, introducing Zhang Sui and saying, "This is the second son of the Zhang family in Tanhuashuge, Kunzhou Prefecture. We returned to the city from the place where the Zhang family studied. When we heard calls for help, we saw that it was a barbarian who robbed the road. So I stepped forward to help." After speaking, he signaled Zhang Sui to give the leading knight the Zhang family identity jade pendant on his waist.

Zhang Sui took off the jade pendant and threw it to the leading knight. The knight caught it casually. After looking at it, he found that it was indeed the jade pendant of a child of the Zhang family, so he threw the jade pendant back to Zhang Sui.At the same time, he signaled the group of knights behind him to put away the short crossbow.

The three of them breathed a sigh of relief, it didn't feel good to be pointed at by these murderous weapons.

The knight signaled his subordinate knights to step forward to check the situation on the scene, and they all matched what the three of them said.The knight got off his horse and lifted his mask, revealing a young face with sharp eyebrows, extremely thin lips, and a pale complexion.He stepped forward to look at the corpses on the ground, and saw that all the barbarians who died were wounded in their vital parts, and their death conditions were tragic. At a glance, they knew that the person who shot them was proficient in the way of killing.

The leading knight said: "I am Cheng Di, the commander of Tsing Yi in Kunzhou. I have received a warning from someone that there are people fighting and fighting here. I am here to check."

After the leader of the Tsing Yi Guard finished speaking, he looked at the three of them.He bowed his hands to Lao Lu and said, "I don't know which general this old brother served under?"

The situation at the scene was the result of the cooperation of the army, and the blood-stained Lao Lu's murderous aura was undisguised.

Lao Lu smiled, cupped his hands casually and said, "I've only been in the Red Flame Army for decades, and when I'm lame, I'll go back to the family for the elderly."

The Red Flame Army is a major army to put down the southwest rebellion. The Red Flame Army was originally called the Nanshan Army. During the War of Rebellion in the Southwest, the troops in the early stage had a lot of casualties when they confronted the barbarians in the jungle. The barbarians were familiar with the jungle. The ghosts and ghosts appearing and disappearing in the jungle caused the Nanshan Army to suffer a lot.

Later, Feng Mang, the commander of the Nanshan Army, directly used black oil to open the way and made great achievements with fire. Later, he became more fond of fire attack and came up with various methods of fire attack. It was the brave and fearless barbarian who burned the ground with his fire attack skills and cried for his father and mother, destroying cities and villages all the way. If the supply of black oil was not insufficient later, the commander Feng Mang would have burned the entire Black Forest.

Feng Mang was also nicknamed Huo Crazy by his colleagues, and his generals called him General Huo. After the end of the chaos, the banner of the Nanshan Army was directly changed to the Red Flame Army by the emperor who knew the situation. The fighting style of the entire army was led by Feng Mang. Go down on the road of fire and never look back.It is also one of the most difficult armies of the Yan Dynasty.

Tsing Yi Wei Chengdi respectfully said: "I'm sorry! It turns out that he is a meritorious warrior."

The old road said: "It's just a man, it's not worth mentioning. I suggest you check out the heels of these barbarians. It stands to reason that these barbarians should not appear in Kunzhou. If things go wrong, there must be monsters."

Cheng Di nodded and said: "That's true. In the past half month, there have been many incidents of barbarians robbing and killing people, but they were all in other prefectures, and the farthest one appeared in Hanjiang Road in the north." Looking at them, they were gathered together by his subordinates The barbarian corpse, said: "This is the first time this has happened in Kunzhou Prefecture. The Tsingyi Prefectures of all provinces attach great importance to it, and it is inconvenient to disclose the specific situation."

Lao Lu waved his hand and said: "This is something you should take care of, you don't need to go into details with me. I'm just a lame groom now, just take good care of my young master."

After saying hello to Zhang Sui, he said: "Second Master, let's go back, it's getting dark soon, it's too uncomfortable to be wet all over, go back and wash up early, otherwise Widow Liu will be scared to death when she sees her, and she probably won't talk to her again me."

Widow Liu is the daughter-in-law of an accountant of the Zhang family. The accountant died of tuberculosis a few years ago. The Zhang family took pity on their orphans and widows who struggled to make ends meet, so they asked Widow Liu to take care of Zhang Sui’s garden, clean up, and subsidize some money. household.

And the accountant's son was thirteen or fourteen years old. He used to be a servant with Zhang Sui. Before Zhang Sui got typhoid fever, he fought with others. Sent to the Grange.

Widow Liu is doing odd jobs in Zhang Sui’s courtyard. After coming and going, the old road has a bit of an eye for Widow Liu, who is in her 40s. It is still under development.

A moment ago, he was a fierce and fierce man, but in an instant he turned into a henpecked demeanor.

Zhang Sui was a little unaccustomed to the changes in the old road's style of painting, and said, "Then go and say hello to Dong Zhi and come back."

At this time, Dong Zhi was moving the bodies of the guards with several Tsing Yi guards, and they were all loaded into the carriage, ready to be transported back to Huang's house.Zhang Sui and Lao Lu went up and greeted him.Zhang Suidao: "Brother Dong, Lao Lu and I will go back first. After you have dealt with the situation here, if you need any help from us, please come to us. We are in trouble together."

Dong Zhi hurriedly saluted, and said, "I should thank you two for your life-saving grace. If it wasn't for you, I would probably be lying with some brothers." Speaking of the other brothers, Dong Zhi looked sad.Lao Lu went forward and patted him on the shoulder, saying: "My condolences, the dead cannot be resurrected, go back and settle down, I live in the east of Shengjingfang, come and drink with me if you have nothing to do." Dong Zhi nodded in agreement.

Zhang Sui and Lao Lu walked for a while before remembering that the front hoof of Lao Lu's mount was cut off by the barbarians. In front of the horse's head, he touched the horse's head with his hand for a while, sighed, and said: "Poor old guy, you can avoid it with a little more effort. He is old after all!" The horse hummed softly, As if responding to him.Lao Lu drew out the short blade, covered the horse's eyes with his left hand, and directly inserted the blade into the horse's neck with his right hand.

Lao Lu drew out his short blade, stood up, and let out a long breath.The Tsing Yi Wei not far away was watching Lao Lu's series of actions without speaking.Tsing Yi Wei Chengdi ordered one of his subordinates softly, and the man went to the Tsing Yi Wei's horse herd, took a spare steed, came to Lao Lu, saluted a Yan Dynasty military salute, and said: "Our commander asked me to send you a horse. Come here and take the next step, just hand it over to the guards after returning to the city."

Lao Lu quickly thanked him, cupped his hands to Cheng Di who was in the distance, and greeted Zhang Sui, the two got on their horses and ran towards Fucheng.

Zhang Sui looked a little dazed. He felt that something was wrong with him when the statue was broken. It was not obvious at the beginning. After Tsing Yi Wei came to the scene, his feeling deepened. Whether he was with Dong Zhi or Tsing Yi Wei The communication is to let the old road to communicate, he just waits and sees.

After riding on the horse, Zhang Sui felt his right hand became hot, and someone whispered in his head, which made him unable to concentrate and felt a little motion sick.Zhang Sui's heart moved. Could it be that the broken statue made the "Wishing Book" in his hand respond?

Thinking of this, Zhang Sui couldn't help being excited, and couldn't wait to go back to his small courtyard and check the situation of "Ruyi Book".Zhang Sui greeted the old road, whipped his horsewhip, and ran towards the city gate at a faster speed.
