Qi Yu and Huang Fei both stayed up all night, and after walking for a while, they couldn't help but feel intensely sleepy.
"Master Qi, why don't we stop and have a rest before leaving?" Huang Fei suggested.
"Well... that's good." Qi Yu replied after looking at Princess Sichuan who was still unconscious with her mouth slightly twitching.
Then, the two stopped their horses.
Just as he stopped and before he could dismount, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from behind him.
This is... someone is coming!
who?
In response, Qi Yu turned around and took a wide look, and couldn't help but be stunned.
However, they saw that the people coming were more than twenty burly and rough men. Each of them was holding a big sword and had a ferocious look on his face. They were obviously hostile.
Looking again, they all have braided hair hanging down their shoulders, and their clothes are made of mixed skins. They look very much like the rumored Donglu people.
Analyze first.
We have received news before that Princess Sichuan is currently having some contact with the Donglu people, so it can be determined that this group of people should be Donglu Zahu.
Could they be here to rescue Princess Sichuan?
The facts are before our eyes, indeed!
Thinking of this, their faces suddenly turned pale, and their sleepiness disappeared instantly.
This is how to do?
"Master Qi, don't worry!" Huang Fei pressed his hand first, and then made a decisive decision: "In this way, I will stop these incoming Donglu people, and you can take the opportunity to escape. There are too many of them, I'm afraid.
They are invincible, but I will try my best to fight with them and win you a chance to escape. Okay, please leave quickly!"
"Ah? It doesn't seem right to leave you alone, doesn't it?"
Yes, Qi Yu felt that it was unjust to do so, but there was no other good way. He was about to say more, but suddenly he saw Huang Fei whipping his butt, and the horse, like
He started running wildly like he was having fun.
Ta-ta-ta!
Go all the way!
"I said horse, please run slower..."
Qi Yu held the horse's rein tightly with one hand and held down Princess Chuan's body behind him with the other to prevent her from falling off the horse. His face was also full of worry and nervousness.
You know, although Qi Dalang learned to ride a horse, he was not smart in riding skills.
This is really a big joke. As an official in charge of horses at Xingtaipu Temple, he is not good at equestrian!
Alas, if I had known better, I would have practiced more on the racecourse...
It’s too late to say this now!
It seems that I really have to pay the price for drinking tea and taking a nap to read the files.
Since Qi Yu was not moving very fast, he was quickly caught up by the Donglu people who broke through Huang Fei.
You know, those native men who grew up on horses are definitely a few steps behind Qi Dalang in terms of riding skills.
It’s broken, it’s broken!
They are getting closer and closer!
Alas!
Could it be that someone in my family is going to be buried here today?
Oh, I don’t want to die!
Suddenly!
Qi Yu raised his eyes and saw, walking on the path directly ahead, a man from a farmer wearing a raincoat with a shovel on his shoulder. He walked in the mud, one step at a time, walking slowly and leisurely.
Huh?
Why does this person's background feel so familiar?
who?
Yes, yes, he is the martial arts master who easily subdued Huang Fei with a raise of his hand - Tong Yanhuo!
Tsk tsk, it’s such a big deal to meet him!
Qi Yu didn't waste any time and shouted directly: "Brother Tong, come and save me!"
Um?
Um!
As a result, Mr. Qi escaped from danger and was rescued.
To Qi Yu's surprise, the entire rescue process turned out to be one-sided.
From a visual point of view, Tong Yanhuo looks like a master chef, and at this moment, he is making the simplest plate of cucumber salad.
Look, his big shovel danced loudly, and every time he hit it, one fell down. These three times, five times and two times, before Qi Dalang finished urinating, he successfully solved the battle.
In addition, he also muttered: "You damn Tatars, don't even look at where this place is. Is Liangshan a place where you can run wild? I just don't understand. If you don't just herd sheep outside the Great Wall, why don't you just go to Liangshan?"
What am I doing in Shandong..."
What he said was quite indignant, but the problem was that the Donglu people couldn't understand it.
I was beaten, but I didn’t understand why I was beaten.
During this process, Qi Yu could see that Tong Yanhuo was a very simple person.
Why do you say that?
You see, even if he started to fight, he didn't really have to be cruel. He would only shoot at the right time. Once the person fell down, he would not take any more shots.
Even so, a lot of people suffered broken arms and legs, and even two people were half-paralyzed because he couldn't hold their feet for a while.
After finishing the cooking, Chef Tong said to the 'cucumbers' lying on the ground: "Well, after you guys calm down for a while, you can go back by yourself. I'll take my leave!"
After saying that, he took the initiative to help Qi Yu lead the horse and left the scene quickly.
You have to run as fast as possible. If you are caught by the government, you can't afford to pay for so much soup and medicine!
…
On the way away, the two started chatting.
Qi Yu first expressed his sincere gratitude for his generous action, while Tong Yanhuo waved his hands indifferently, saying that this was a trivial matter, no different from patting someone on the head.
However, today is indeed a chance encounter.
According to Tong Yanhuo, he buried his mother in the middle of the night because he noticed the weather had changed.
Yes, if it rains heavily, it will be difficult to enter the coffin on the muddy road.
His approach was not in line with local burial customs.
However, he didn't care at all.
He said, what is filial piety?
Filial piety is to give my mother one more mouthful of delicious food when she is still alive. This is better than anything else. After she dies, even if you fill her grave with fat elbows, she will not be able to eat them.
As for the so-called customs, they are all for living people to see, and there is no need to take them seriously.
It is not difficult to see from this incident that Tong Yanhuo is not a person who sticks to traditional customs, and he is open-minded by nature. Think about it, if he really respected customs, he would not wear mourning clothes and go to major stores to do sales.
Qi Yu felt that his understanding of filial piety was simple and true, which inspired him very much.
Filial piety is actually very simple and does not make much sense.
After walking for a while, the two stopped their horses to rest.
On the one hand, it is to relieve the fatigue, on the other hand, it is to wait for Huang Fei.
Regrettably, after waiting for a full stick of incense, Huang Fei still could not arrive.
Therefore, Qi Yu temporarily adjusted his plan and planned to find a remote place with no village or shop to interrogate and execute Princess Sichuan as quickly as possible.
Yes, this is the top priority right now.
Tong Yanhuo had always mistakenly thought that the mysterious woman lying on the horse was the poor person Qi Yu rescued, but she never expected that she was a big evil person.
Seeing that he was struggling, Qi Yu took out his censor's token to prove that he was indeed eliminating evil and promoting good.
Tong Yanhuo smiled and scratched his head, and said awkwardly: "I can't read, so I don't know what is written on this sign. However, I believe you are a good person. Otherwise, you would not have given me the extra four taels of silver."
Well……
This logic... is straightforward enough!
Finally, Tong Yanhuo decided that within these two days, he was willing to protect Qi Yu's personal safety, well, as a reward for the gift of four taels of silver.
An hour later.
In a cold and deserted cave, Qi Yu sat with a wary look on his face.
In front of him, there was a beautiful woman sitting diagonally. She was none other than Princess Sichuan who had just woken up.
As for Tong Yanhuo, he carried a shovel and stood majestically at the entrance of the cave to protect Qi Yu from being disturbed by outsiders.
It was very quiet inside the cave, with only the sound of two people breathing.
Qi Yu looked at her for a moment, and couldn't help but praise in his heart: In terms of appearance alone, Princess Sichuan is indeed a beautiful woman who has conquered the country, almost as good as my wife.
Seeing his blurry eyes, Princess Chuan smiled faintly, her red lips parted slightly and said, "Could it be that the young master is Qi Yu?"
