Chapter 42 The people of troubled times

In the cold winter, heavy snow had stopped yesterday, and the snow melted on the ground and was covered in mud.

"Driving!Driving!"

Several riders galloped from afar, and the heat exhaled by the horses turned into white mist when they encountered the severe cold, and the horse's hooves trampled on the muddy ground and splashed mud and flew around.

On the top of the horse was a handsome boy with double phoenix eyes. His skin was shining with a healthy luster and his back was straight and he had a dragon and tiger aura. It was Song Yuyuan, the Goro of the Song family!

A middle-aged man with a horse was wrong behind him. The man had dark skin and ordinary appearance. He looked like an old farmer who had been digging for many years. Only his eyes were bright and bright, showing the tenacity of this person's personality.

This is Du Wu, the first boxer in Song Xiu’s mansion!

He is a martial arts master who practices the five internal organs!

Behind them are two people, one tall and one short, one fat and one thin. The short and fat man has big faces and small eyes, and a smile on his face. The tall and thin man is just the opposite, with a serious face and a straight nose that makes the timid people dare not look directly at him.

A short and fat man carries a wide sword on his back, and a tall and thin man has a long sword on his waist and hips. He is a hero from the world recruited by Song Xiu. The two swords and swords and swords are Sun Cheng and Sun Hou brothers.

Next is the three Song Mansion guards, each with serious expressions and meticulousness.

Not far behind their seven riders, two riders followed slowly, with a man and a woman above, but Chen Zi'ang and his maid Dong Yuner.

Chen Zi'ang's face has changed drastically in the past few months. His originally thin body has grown a lot of muscles, and his brown face has begun to show a healthy rosy look. His sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks have become more round. His head is neatly furnished. He is tied behind his head with a white ribbon. His gray robe is also worn with a bit elegant.

After a few months, his body technique of the Arhat in the Heavens finally entered the door, which also means that he can control his strength freely and no longer have to worry about pressing down the horse with just a pinch of his legs.

Dong Yuner also changed into a maid's clothes, put on a strong suit, and had an ancient long sword on her back. Her little face was tightly tense from beginning to end. She held the reins in her hands with both hands, and the veins on the back of her hands were bulging.

She can ride a horse, but she is not good at it. It is really not easy for her to run a long distance. That's why the two of them followed behind the other people. It was Song Yuyuan who slowed down his horse speed, otherwise Dong Yun'er would have been thrown away long ago.

“Well…”

The few people in front of him tightened their reins and stopped.

Chen Zi'ang and the others stepped up their speed and rushed up.

"Brother San, we are going to walk down the road. We have to get off the horse and walk during this journey."

Song Yuyuan turned over and dismounted and took the lead in walking towards a small path on one side of the road.

The level of Guanshan has not been fully opened. As important figures in the Song Mansion, several people cannot move forward from there. In fact, in addition to the level of Guanshan, there are two other roads in and out of Baxia. One is steep and can only walk, which is exactly the one they are walking now. A twists and turns, the journey is too long. Moreover, under the leadership of Song Qiyuan in the past few months, the passage has been destroyed and is already difficult to pass.

The mountain roads are difficult to walk, and some roads are not suitable for horses to pass by. Several people have to carry the horses first before they can embark on the journey again. The nine people walked this difficult journey for three days!

*******

"Huh! Finally came out!"

Walking out of the mountains, Song Yuyuan gasped in the scorching sun at noon, expressing his feelings.

"It's not easy. I admire the escaped people. It's really hard for them to be unable to sleep all the way!"

"They might think that life outside is a little better."

Du Wu quickly packed up his horses, while following the sound of Song Yuyuan's feelings.

"It's better? I guess the life of the nine counties in the Central Plains is still quite good now."

Song Yuyuan smiled, pointed to Dongfang, and said, "If we speed up, we should be able to arrive in Gu'an County today and have a good night's sleep at night!"

When everyone heard this, their spirits shook and their eyes were filled with energy.

Finally, I can sleep well!

"Everyone, let's go!"

Song Yuyuan turned around, smiled slightly at everyone, turned over and ran towards Gu'an County.

"Go away, go!"

Du Wu shouted, followed closely behind, and the rest of the people also boarded their horses and rode their horses.

The earth was desolate, and after a while, I didn't meet a living person. The villages I occasionally passed by also had houses collapsed and were in a mess. There were no strangers. There were a few smelly corpses lying there to attract a lot of mosquitoes.

The sun sets, and the ground is red. Nine people and nine riders finally arrived in Gu'an. The shadows of pedestrians began to appear on both sides of the road. However, these pedestrians saw the figures of several people from afar and had long been avoided and could not find out what happened here in recent times.

"Gu'an County is located in the intersection of the powers of the Great Sage King Fang Hao and Hanzhong King Li Shun. It seems that the ownership here has not been fixed yet, but it is a happy event."

Seeing the city walls of the county town, several people got off the horse early and started walking. Song Yuyuan smiled while observing the pedestrians around him.

"This is only temporary. There will be a battle here after the New Year, and it will be another disaster for the people here."

Du Wu shook his head slightly, and looked at the pedestrian with unbearable eyes.

"People are not as good as Taiping Dogs in troubled times, but Master Du doesn't have to be too emotional! Isn't the troubled times a great stage for you and me to show their abilities?"

Song Yuyuan said with a smile.

Du Wu's eyebrows were lowered and he said lightly: "The fifth young master has said that, I would rather live in a peaceful and prosperous era than my skill."

"Master Du is a kind-hearted person."

Song Yuyuan smiled and refused to comment.

The walls of Gu'an County are solid, seven or eight meters high and about one meter wide. At the gate are hundreds of soldiers holding weapons, carefully inspecting the roads and other objects of the people entering the city.

"There is ten copper coins per person and five horses. The nine people and nine horses should be a total of one hundred and thirty-five. Why do you have to collect two hundred?"

Liu An, the guard of the Song Mansion, snatched the horse's reins and had an argument with the officers guarding the city.

"Bring weapons, extra money! Otherwise, you can put them down."

The officer looked sneered at the few people, and the soldiers guarding the city were slowly surrounded and always watching the development of the situation.

"Forget it, Liu An. Give it to this general!"

Song Yuyuan waved helplessly.

"It's still this young master who understands the truth."

The officer smiled and took the silver handed over by Liu An. He even took out a small weight, weighed it, took out another scissor and twisted it down. After confirming it repeatedly, he found change.

"You're really here!"

Liu An took the silver and sneered. The money was enough for a family of four and a half months in the past year! Now it is just a one-time entrance fee!

"Hey, you follow the rules, we follow the rules, and it's impossible to mess up."

The officer giggled and put the silver in his pocket with his backhand.

"I hope the money is not spent in vain!"
