Chapter 22 Deserter

A gust of breeze blew up, picking up some wind and sand, and the flame of the torch swayed left and right with the wind, like a dancing singer. Liu Dadao's face was livid, and all the subordinates behind him were either frightened or reluctant and complicated.

mood.

Mo Yunxiao slowly lowered the bowstring he held high, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and thought to himself: "This Mo Yunxiao is really amazing. Not only is his boxing and kicking skills great, but his shooting skills are also top-notch."

She raised her eyes and looked at the grass target, only to see three sharp arrows hitting the bull's-eye without missing a beat. She turned to look at Liu Dadao and said with a smile: "The leader of the group agreed, sister, I am lucky to win. You Chrysostom

Once you make a promise, you can’t go back on it.”

Liu Dadao raised his eyebrows and burst into laughter. He couldn't help but raise a rough and thick hand to touch his chin and said, "Forget it, let's put aside what happened today. You can go."

"Brother!" Baocheng and the others were very unwilling and started shouting. But Liu Dadao's sharp gaze was like a sharp arrow piercing his cheek, and he did not dare to speak any more.

Mo Yunxiao handed the crossbow in his hand to a beggar in rags and said with a smile: "In that case, I will take my leave."

As she spoke, she walked away with high steps. But before she had taken a few steps, Liu Dadao stopped her again: "Miss Mo, please stop!"

She paused and looked back, her eyes full of the comfort and tenderness of a winner. Everyone looked at her, and their hearts moved slightly, as if the woman in front of them was no longer the "Female Yama" that no one dared to mess with, but rather

She is a peerless beauty comparable to Zhao Feiyan and Yang Yuhuan.

But Liu Dadao remained calm and expressed his doubts calmly: "With Miss Mo's skill, she can completely avoid Baocheng's sneak attack. Why did you pretend to be caught and come to me?"

"Because..." Mo Yunxiao thought carefully for a while before replying with a smile: "I want to know what kind of people dare to come and arrest me in this city of Tokyo."

Liu Dadao looked at her and asked: "How? Can I disappoint you?"

"The head of the group is so heroic and handsome, it's very admirable." Mo Yunxiao looked him up and down, then walked over quickly. Baocheng hurriedly shouted: "What are you doing?"

But Mo Yunxiao and Liu Dadao turned a deaf ear. She walked up to him, stood on tiptoes and whispered to him: "I can also see that you are a deserter."

Liu Dadao was shocked and couldn't help but take two steps back and asked: "How do you know?"

Mo Yunxiao smiled proudly and said: "Mo is not talented. I once watched an archaeological documentary about the Song Dynasty. The tattoo on your face shows that you are either a criminal or a soldier. The boots you are wearing are the horses worn by the Western Army of the Song Dynasty."

Leather boots, the dagger you used to cut the pig shoulder is wrapped with gold thread. These are luxurious items, and they are probably owned by senior generals of the Western Army. Based on this, you must be from the military."

Liu Dadao nodded appreciatively and said, "Yes, your guess is correct. I am indeed a deserter. Not only am I a deserter, but Baocheng, Yongxiang, Fuquan, and Yuan Lu are also deserters."

As he said that, four people stood up one after another. These four people were tall and tall, with prominent cheekbones and deep and strong eyes. People who were not soldiers all year round would never have a professional aura.

Mo Yunxiao glanced at them hastily, then asked with a smile: "According to the law of our court, deserters must be tattooed. Aren't you afraid that I will report to the court?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they all started laughing. The beggars around also started laughing.

Mo Yunxiao looked around, a little annoyed, and asked: "What's so funny?"

"Miss Mo really hates us so much that she wants to report us at such a high cost?" Liu Dadao said with a smile.

Mo Yunxiao was a little confused and asked: "What do you mean by this?"

"You should go back and ask your father!" Baocheng shouted loudly. "Don't be rude!" But Liu Dadao also scolded him softly.

"Could it be that my father... is also a deserter?" Mo Yunxiao rolled his eyes, cupped his hands and said, "Without further words, I'll take my leave."

"Miss Mo!" Liu Dadao stopped her again and said, "Today you stand up for the Cao Clan, and we, the Beggar Clan, are willing to admit defeat. But with the benefits of river transportation, we have to risk our lives to get a share of the pie. Mo

Girl, we have a long way to go."

Mo Yunxiao also looked back with a smile and said, "I'm just here to accompany you, little sister."

Under the leadership of Bao Cheng and others, Mo Yunxiao left the martial arts arena, passed through two main gates, and walked through a garden before arriving at the door. "This house is so luxurious, it doesn't seem like you beggars can afford it.

"She looked around as she walked.

Baocheng glanced at her, then crossed the threshold of the gate and told a little beggar: "Bring Yun Cong here."

The little beggar responded, turned and left. Then he turned back and said to Mo Yunxiao: "Yuncong is the beloved horse of our regiment leader. He always accompanied him when he was in the army. This horse is very spiritual.

You can take Miss Mo back to Tokyo. When she gets home, let her go and she will come back on her own."

"Oh." Mo Yunxiao also responded, and when he looked around again, he saw a solid white horse as tall as a person walking towards him, led by the little beggar.

"Wow!" Mo Yunxiao couldn't help but exclaimed, walked over and gently stroked the horse's neck. Its hair was soft and delicate, and it felt like touching fine silk with her fingers.

Baocheng also walked over and said to Ma Er: "When you take Miss Mo home, she must be well taken care of and don't make any mistakes."

The horse snorted, and heavy air flowed out of its nostrils and turned into white mist.

Mo Yunxiao was not polite, stepped on the stirrup, stepped hard, her body jumped up, and got on the horse very smoothly. She was also a little smug about her mounting skills, so she said to Baocheng with a smile: "For me

I would like to express my gratitude to all of you."

Baocheng also smiled slightly and said: "My brothers and I kidnapped the girl here today, so I should send you back, so there is no need to thank you."

"Ha!" Mo Yunxiao said with a smile: "You finally said something that I heard. We will definitely see each other again in the future, so I say goodbye to you today!"

As she spoke, she whipped her riding whip, and the horse neighed loudly, raised its hooves, and ran towards the depths of the dark night.

Baocheng watched her leave until her figure was completely engulfed in darkness, then he sighed slightly and turned back. Liu Dadao returned to the middle hall again, drinking and eating the pork shoulder he had cut.

He raised his eyes and glanced at Baocheng beside him, and asked, "Is someone sending you away?"

"Yes, sent away." Baocheng replied.

Liu Dadao nodded and asked, "What do you think of this Mo Yunxiao?"

"This..." He looked at Yongxiang beside him and said, "She is indeed a 'Female Yama', and she lives up to her reputation."

"Huh!" Liu Dadao chuckled, seemingly disapproving of his answer. He picked up the wine bottle and took another sip before continuing: "I'm afraid this little lady is even more difficult to deal with than Yama. She holds my hand

I have taken advantage of you."

Baocheng was a little anxious, so he stepped forward and said, "Can't we just put the water transport issue on hold?"

Liu Dadao glanced at him, just smiled slightly and said, "Baocheng, you are still impatient after all these years. You should learn from Yongxiang."

Baocheng unconsciously raised his head and looked at Yongxiang, and stopped talking.

"I know you want to find a good job for the brothers. But..." He paused and then said: "We are deserters, and Mo Yunxiao already knows it. So there is no need to rush, if the court finds out

"It's a small thing for you and me to assassinate my wife, but it's a big thing to delay thousands of brothers in Tokyo."

"Who made us deserters?" Baocheng became excited again and roared: "It's the officials! It's the court!"

"Baocheng!" Yongxiang and Fuquan shouted hurriedly, and Liu Dadao reacted even more quickly. He suddenly stood up and slapped Baocheng on the face, causing him to stagger.

"Tuantou, calm down." Fuquan stood beside Liu Dadao unconsciously, but he didn't know what to say.

Liu Dadao stared at Baocheng with his angry eyes. Baocheng covered his hot cheek and was speechless.

Then, he looked around and said to the people around him: "From now on, if anyone wants to mention the past, don't recognize me as the leader!"

"Yes, yes!" Fuquan hurriedly went to Baocheng and persuaded him: "Go and apologize to the head of the group."

"No need." Liu Dadao said coldly, then walked to Baocheng and said to him: "We escaped from Yongle City to find a way out for our brothers. If you say something careless,

If you provoke the government, then you will be the sinner of Fan Ziying of our Daxi Army!"

"Yes, yes..." Baocheng's face turned pale and he could only nod his head repeatedly. Liu Dadao glared at him angrily, then strode out of the hall and walked out the door.

Baocheng followed a few steps and said loudly: "Tuantou! It's already late at night, so just stay here with me."

But Liu Dadao kept walking, and just said: "Yongxiang, Fuquan, you take people and me away. Let's go to Yuan Lu's place today."

Yongxiang and Fuquan looked at each other and reluctantly said "yes".

Baocheng hurriedly grabbed Fuquan, who was about to walk by, and said in a pleading tone: "It's late at night, please let Tuantou stay. I will definitely entertain you."

Fuquan glanced at Liu Dadao's back and said: "Brother Baocheng, it's not that I won't help you, it's just that the temper of our group leader... you know better than me. However, although the group leader's anger is strong, it comes and goes quickly.

Hurry up. Just wait a minute, Yongxiang, Yuan Lu, I and I will say some nice things for you. Isn’t Yuncong coming back again? Haha, this horse is the lifeblood of the group, I will definitely come back to get it."

After hearing Fuquan's words, Baocheng's panicked heart was relieved a lot, and he bowed deeply to him and said, "Thank you."

"Ouch!" Fuquan patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother, why are you talking about this? The leader of the group is not waiting for anyone, let's go first."

Liu Dadao came to the gate of the house and looked around, as if he was sizing up something, but in fact he was waiting for Fuquan and Yongxiang. After a while, the two of them followed, and they also brought three horses with them.

"Tuantou, although this horse is not as good as Yuncong, it is better than nothing." Yongxiang said with a smile: "Brother Yuan lives in the city, we must have some foot power."

Liu Dadao nodded and got on the horse first. Yongxiang and Fuquan also got on the horse respectively.

"Tuan Tou, take care!" Bao Cheng greeted him and bowed deeply, his voice trembling a bit. Liu Dadao drove his horse forward, with Yong Xiang and Fu Quan following closely on both sides.

"Tuan Tou, Brother Bao was also in a hurry, don't blame him." Yong Xiang said.

Liu Dadao had no expression on his face and replied calmly: "Mo Yunxiao has grasped our handle, and Baocheng is impetuous. I have to do this."

"According to the head of the group, will Mo Yunxiao expose our affair?" Fuquan asked.

Liu Dadao chuckled and said, "Mo Yunxiao will not drag his father into trouble."

"But..." Yong Xiang said: "People often say, 'I'd rather touch Kaifeng Mansion than Mo Yunxiao'. I'm afraid this girl has some tricks, so you have to be on guard!"

After hearing this, Liu Dadao's eyes burst out with a sharp light. "If this is really the case," he said solemnly, "I will definitely cut her into pieces!"

Fuquan and Yongxiang both had stern expressions on their faces. The layers of murderous intent in Liu Dadao's words made people shudder.
