Chapter 52: Falling off a cliff, Marriage passes away, and going to the desert, friendship is natural (IV)
Wan Jianfeng came to his senses and shook his head and said, "Don't hurry, don't hurry, I just watched a free show. I'm just now. I'm just getting excited. You're back!"
Zhang Pu nodded slightly, unintentionally asked about the good show that Wan Jianfeng said, and took the two of them to a powerful house. Zhang Pu hesitated in front of the door, and then ran in quickly. Wan Jianfeng followed behind and rushed in.
The exterior of the house looks quite magnificent, but it is not too big inside. The two of them arrived at the front of the main hall in a few steps. Zhang Pu hurriedly knocked on the door and said anxiously in Dangxiangyu: "Brother Jiqian, are you in the house? Open the door quickly!"
As soon as Zhang Pu finished speaking, the door was pulled open from inside. Wan Jianfeng looked at the person who opened the door curiously. Seeing that this person was a quiet and handsome boy, he was a little surprised and thought to himself, "Although this boy is beautiful, he has no courage that a person who accomplished great things should have. If he is the legendary Li Jipang, it would be no wonder that the Song army dared to be in a big army."
When the boy saw Zhang Pu, he hurriedly said in Dangxiang's words: "Brother Zhang, you are finally back. Brother has been waiting for a long time!"
Zhang Pu nodded, tried to control his anxiety and walked slowly into the hall. Wan Jianfeng walked in with him. The light inside was a little dim, and several men were talking around the sand table. Most of them were wearing fur and brown fur, with golden rings on the ears, and two of them had the unique hairstyle of the Dangxiang tribe, with a hint of weirdness in their majesty.
Wan Jianfeng's eyes swept past these people and finally stopped on the faces of the two of them in the middle. A majestic and domineering young man from the Han family on his left hand, which was Li Ruoyun who had just met before. On his right hand was a young man in Dangxiang tribe in leather armor. He was half covered in black hair and a short moustache on his lips. Although his face was not very handsome, his eyes were full of strength and courage that were sharpened in the desert in the northwest. At this moment, he was staring at the sand table in front of him with a dim face as deep as water, but his eyes emitted two hot and firm brilliance. Only a born king would have such courage and persistence.
When Zhang Pu saw the two, he hurriedly gave a gift and said in Dangxiang: "Two brothers, what happened to Yinzhou? Is the leader safe and sound now?"
Before the two of them could answer, a young man in blue clothes and a long sword hanging on his waist said in Dangxiang's words: "Brother Zhang, something happened! In order to seize power, the uncle of the chief leader wrote a letter of complaint to the Emperor of Song, and fabricated many false charges in the letter to falsely accusing the chief leader. He thought that Zhao Guangyi would replace the chief leader and grant him the land of the five states after receiving the secret letter, but Zhao Guangyi sent general Cao Guangshi to take over and ordered the forced transfer of the nobles of Dangxiang to Bianliang. Now the chief leader has been ordered to go there, and everything he will do is rely on us!"
Zhang Pu nodded slightly, with a serious expression, looking at the young man Dangxiang in the middle and said, "Brother, if we really leave according to the order, we will completely lose the world that belongs to Dangxiang people. If we don't leave, we will inevitably be enemies of the Song Dynasty. I wonder what you mean?"
The young man Dangxiang, who had been silent, finally said firmly: "The tiger should not leave the mountain, and the fish should not leave the abyss. In order to protect the territory of generations of ancestors, even if he is an enemy of the Song Dynasty!"
Zhang Pu seemed to have expected him to do this, and nodded with relief: "Brother Jiqian, what you said! I was a Han native, and it would be impossible to move to Bianliang. But as Dangxiang people, once you leave the land of the five states, you will be like rootless grass. You will inevitably encounter wind and burn it to fire. Not only will you have no place to stand, but you will be doomed if you take a wrong step!
Li Ruoyun pointed to the sand table, spoke slowly, and said confidently: "Now that he has decided to resist the order, he is undoubtedly openly an enemy of the Song Dynasty. The most urgent task is to find a place to settle down and accumulate strength to have a day to make a comeback. The most suitable place is undoubtedly the Dijinze in the northwest of Xiazhou!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a general Dangxiang took the lead in opposing it, "Dijinze is located in the desert, and there is no need for the Song army to attack, we will starve to death. Do you choose Dijinze? Do you want us to eat yellow sand and drink the northwest wind together?"
The Xiang men from all the parties called in unison: "General Jichong is right, don't go to Dijinze! We would rather move to Bianliang under the order than to Dijinze, which does not shit!"
"Is that true?" Li Ruoyun smiled slightly and punched the sand table hard. With a loud "boom", the solid sand table collapsed halfway. Everyone was shocked. Although they were still protesting loudly in their hearts, no one dared to speak again.
Li Jiqian thought for a moment and said affirmatively: "At present, only bypassing Xiazhou and entering Dijinze as Brother Ruoyun said is the only way for our Party Xiang tribe to live!"
When everyone saw Li Jiqian say this, they were completely silent, but their faces were still filled with doubts and confusion. Seeing this, the young Han Chinese explained: "Everyone, although Dijinze is located in the desert, it is an oasis in the desert. There are more than a dozen small and medium-sized tribes living in Dijinze for generations, so there are no need to worry about insufficient food and water supply. Moreover, there are many infantry and we have many cavalry. If we really fight in the desert, we will never suffer any loss. Who else is now, is there any doubt about moving to Dijinze?"
Zhang Pu nodded slightly and said, "If Brother Yun said something very much, what he said was exactly what Brother Jiqian and I want to explain to everyone."
Li Jiqian glanced at everyone present and said, "Whoever still opposes moving to Dijinze now takes the initiative to stand up and stay in Yinzhou, and the others go to Dijinze with us."
After hearing their words, most of the doubts in their hearts were eliminated, and they shouted: "Captain Li is right. We are willing to move to Dijinze! In order to defend the Dangxiang tribe and to make a comeback, we are willing to serve Chief Li as the new generation of great leaders!"
Li Jiqian said loudly: "The country cannot be without a king for a day, and the tribe cannot be without a leader for a day. Now my cousin Li Jipeng is ordered to go to Bianliang. Since you are willing to choose me to take over as the position of great leader, I will naturally not let you go. I, Li Jiqian, have sworn here that I will protect the Dangxiang clan, the land of the five states in this life, and keep the brothers whom I have close friends with, and will not change even if the sea is gone forever!"
Everyone cheered when they heard this, fell to the ground, put their hands on their chests, and then raised them high, and the atmosphere was almost boiling for a moment.
Wan Jianfeng heard them talking a lot, sometimes frustrated and worried, sometimes excited, and felt that the monk was confused. He hurriedly pulled Zhang Pu's sleeve and asked, "Brother Zhang, which one do you do? I have been begging for a living since I was a child. Even if I speak Chinese in a very literary way, I can't understand a single word, let alone such a weird Dangxiang dialect."
When Zhang Pu heard Wan Jianfeng ask, he remembered that he knew nothing about Dang Xiangyu and quickly repeated it briefly. After hearing this, Wan Jianfeng scratched his head and curled his lips and said, "Brother Zhang, are these people all fools? After talking for so long, he was vain..."
Before Wan Jianfeng could finish his words, Li Ruoyun and Li Jiqian stared at each other with a hint of anger in their eyes. Zhang Pu was about to ease his words, but Wan Jianfeng smiled and said, "Hey, it turns out that you can all understand Chinese? Then he had to say something about Dangxiang, which made me confused."
Li Ruoyun said in a deep voice: "My name is Li Ruoyun. I am a Han Chinese. How could I not understand Chinese? You just mocked us as fools. I want to listen, where are we staying?"
Wan Jianfeng said without fear: "You have studied for a long time or not to go to Dijinze, but you don't think about how to leave Yinzhou City? This behavior is like studying whether grilled fish is delicious or stewed fish is delicious for a long time, but I forgot that I haven't even found the river. If you are not fools, there will be no fools in the world!"
Zhang Pu trembled all over when he heard this. Just as he was about to stop Wan Jianfeng's words, Li Jiqian suddenly burst into laughter, "Hahaha, this little brother is rough and not rough. We really put such important things behind us!"
Li Jiqian spoke Chinese this time. Although he had a little accent, Wan Jianfeng still understood it. Li Ruoyun also nodded slightly, looked at Wan Jianfeng with calm eyes, and asked, "What's your name? I've been in Yinzhou for ten years, why have I never seen you?"
Wan Jianfeng slapped his chest and said, "If you ask me the name of this young hero, you have to stand firm and be careful to sit on the ground! This young hero is the son of Wan Mengsheng, the owner of Yinfeng Villa in the past. He once learned art in Kunlun Mountain, fought hard in Dongting Lake, and wiped out Yao Hongyuan's pride of heaven-Wan Jianfeng!"
After hearing his introduction, Li Jiqian laughed more and more happily, and the solemnity on his face was swept away. Zhang Pu also smiled, "Young Master Wan, you are indeed extraordinary, but you are too much!"
When the Xiang men from all the parties saw Li Jiqian and Zhang Pu laughing, they also laughed, as if this would make their tense heartstrings relax. Only with a hint of surprise and surprise on Li Ruoyun's face, he looked at Wan Jianfeng repeatedly and said, "You are indeed somewhat similar to Wan Shiwang in the portrait. Today, we meet again and again!"
Wan Jianfeng was stunned. After thinking seriously for a long time, he finally shook his head, "Brother, have you recognized the wrong person? Although we have indeed met just now, we have never said a word, so we can't be considered a friend no matter how hard we are!"
Li Ruoyun's face slightly darkened and she sighed: "Although you don't know me, you must have heard of my uncle Li Minghe's name?"
"Li Minghe?" Wan Jianfeng thought for a moment, and seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly said, "I vaguely remember that the old man who told the history mentioned Li Minghe. He seemed to be my father's close friend and also worked under Murong Yanyun's command."
Li Ruoyun nodded and said, "That's right, he is my cousin."
Wan Jianfeng and Li Ruoyun looked at each other and smiled, revealing the joy of reunion of old friends in their eyes. Their four hands were tightly held together. Wan Yu and Thousand Words could not express the two's feelings for their time at first sight, and their endless grief for their fathers.
