From Xiaoao to travel around the world

Chapter 141
"Raise your head!"

As if frightened by the fierce shouting, the little girl shuddered and retracted her gaze from Yang Qing's face, and turned her head to look at the fully armored soldier in front of her.

Yang Qing also looked over as he said, facing the soldier's cold expression, he just showed a "pleasing" smile just right.

"get out."

After watching for a moment, the soldier impatiently waved his hand to signal the two to leave.

The little girl was easily frightened, and her whole body trembled when she heard the sound. She couldn't help raising her hands to cover her ears, curled up and wanted to squat down.

Seeing this, Yang Qing stretched out his hand to hold her wrist and walked to the periphery.

After walking a few steps, he felt his hands tighten, and when he turned around, he saw the little girl staring blankly at the bamboo basket that had been trampled to pieces in the crowd behind her.

"Go home, you can buy more when the basket is gone."

The surroundings were noisy and chaotic, and the wine shops and brothels on both sides of the street were not spared. They were almost turned upside down by the tiger-like officers and soldiers, and screams and curses were everywhere.

Standing on the chaotic street, his scrutinizing eyes swept over Yang Qing countless times. On the surface, he pretended to be frightened, but in fact he was relaxed in his heart, and he didn't feel disobedient at all.

At the beginning, he didn't like or dislike Wang Shichong. After all, he was not related to him. Although he had flesh and blood, he was just an ordinary person in the fictional world.

Being hostile because of different positions is really not a matter of grievances.

But looking at the scene before him, he couldn't help feeling contemptuous.

Now Li Yuan supported Yang Guang's grandson and Yang You as emperor in the northern pass of Luoyang; Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou, and Dou Jiande bordered Turks and Khitan further north.

In the west are Xue Ju and the remnants of the Sui Dynasty, and in the east are Li Mi, Du Fuwei, and Li Zitong; in the south, besides Zhu Can and Xiao Mian, there are also Song lords in Yunnan, Guizhou, and Bashu.

Putting aside the other insignificant and weak forces, Luoyang seems to be in danger, with water conservancy in all directions.But in fact, it is in the place of the Fourth World War, surrounded by many forces.

In such a situation, Wang Shichong is still making waves for Yang Tong, who has almost no influence, which is really a bit small.

Not to mention killing Yang Tong and replacing him, so what if Yang Tong openly surrendered the throne to you?
The Sui Dynasty's Guozuo was too short, and there were many forces in the world, but no one recognized this orthodoxy.

This thought passed in a flash, Yang Qing then glanced at the little girl behind him, saw that she was still staring at the dilapidated bamboo basket, and threatened:
"If you want to see me again, I don't care about you."

He rescued the girl purely because he remembered the days when he was homeless on the street and worked hard for his life.There is also a reason for her to hide herself so as not to appear too obtrusive.

Now that there are powerful enemies around, it's really critical time, but no one will give him time to show kindness.

Hearing his bad words, the little girl turned her head and looked over, her eyes were as calm and empty as ever, without waves or ripples.

But seeing that Yang Qing's expression was getting serious, she finally lowered her head silently, and moved forward lightly.

The two walked through the streets and alleys all the way, and most of the sights they saw were chickens flying around.The few clean neighborhoods are also heavily guarded, and it is not known which important minister's residence is there.

When they approached the outer city, the people searching along the streets were no longer limited to officers and soldiers, but many people from all walks of life were among them.

More chaotic, but also looser.

"It's getting late, let's go home early."

Yang Qing was about to part ways with the little girl, but just as he finished speaking, seeing seven or eight men approaching in the distance, the little girl suddenly dragged him into a dark alley by the side of the road.

"What's wrong? Who did you see?"

The little girl ignored Yang Qing's question, but raised her hands and pushed him to the depths of the alley with all her strength, her always calm eyes showed endless fear and anxiety.

"Ah, ah..."

Her chapped lips kept opening and closing, but what she uttered was just a monotonous note.

Cooperating with her shaking little head, Yang Qing realized that she was telling herself to leave as soon as possible.

"It turned out to be a dumb..."

After waving his hand, Yang Qing turned around and walked into the deep dark alley.

The little girl waited for his figure to disappear from sight, then turned around and left the alley to meet the young people.

The chaos was not over yet, she didn't take a few steps on the street, and was soon bumped into by seven or eight men who were coming towards her.

Immediately, a skinny man in his thirties jokingly said, "Hey, isn't this Xiao Rou? I haven't seen you for a few days.

how?Have you got enough money? "

In the noisy surroundings, Xiao Rou slowly raised her head to meet the man's obscene face, her thin shoulders couldn't help but tense and curl up.

Under the gaze of the other party, her eyes slowly filled with mist, her lips opened and closed several times silently, and finally her knees softened and she knelt down.

"What is this for? Pretending to be pitiful?"

The short and thick eyebrows of the skinny man raised: "If you want my brother to live, five taels of silver a month must not be less!"

As he spoke, he stepped forward and pinched Xiaorou's chin, turned around, and regretfully said: "Damn, none of the old bustards in the brothel know what to do.

What's wrong with the dumb?After being so hungry, she can still be pretty. Who would dare to say that she is not a beauty after several years of raising her?Maybe there are officials who like this tune, hahaha. "

At this time, the bright moon was in the sky, although the street was noisy and chaotic, there was a constant stream of people, and the lights were brightly lit, but no one looked at this direction.

Xiao Rou curled up and knelt on the ground, like a wilting weed in the gutter.

Hearing the malicious teasing from several people, she seemed to be used to it.He didn't care about being manipulated as if someone was judging the goods, and kept leaning over and kowtow while holding the ground with both hands.

"It's useless to smash your head." The skinny man stretched out his hand to grab her withered hair and pulled it up vigorously. He slapped her cheek hard with the other hand and said, "If you don't have money, both of you brothers and sisters will die. Don't try to run, you know !"

After he slapped Xiao Rou to the ground with his last slap, they laughed and continued to move forward.

Xiao Rou quickly got up, and ignored her red and swollen forehead, knelt on the ground and continued to kowtow.

But just when her forehead was about to touch the ground, a palm suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.

The skin is delicate and smooth like a newborn baby, and the fingers are slender and flexible like white lotuses blooming in the dark night.

As soon as she was supported by that palm, she immediately felt a cool breath penetrate into her body through the skin, and her whole body immediately relaxed.

"Ah, ah..."

Xiaorou raised her head from the palm of her hand, and when she saw Yang Qing's appearance, she quickly got up and dragged him to the corner of the street, for fear of being discovered by the few people who hadn't gone far.

However, she subconsciously yelled twice, which inevitably attracted attention.

"stop!"

Hearing a sharp shout, Xiao Rou's body froze, and she stopped instinctively.

She looked back at the people who were getting closer and closer, and then at Yang Qing, a flash of determination flashed across her face, she turned around and continued to run forward.

However, after only one step, I felt my hands sink.

Yang Qing stood on the spot and looked at her with a smile, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't move her.

"Ah, ah!"

Xiaorou's face turned pale with anxiety, her facial features were distorted, and her eyes were full of sorrow.

He yelled a few words indiscriminately, seeing that Yang Qing was motionless, and seeing that the skinny man had already approached with a sinister smile.She suddenly turned around and threw herself in front of Yang Qing, with her arms stretched out to protect him behind her.

"Ah! Huh!"

She put away her cowardly look just now, resisted her fear and bowed her body to protect Yang Qing behind her, like a female bird guarding her cubs, she kept uttering "threat" sounds of unknown meaning.

"Damn it, this is a money-losing product that no one wants." The skinny man laughed and cursed, with a strong disdain and contempt on his face: "You think this kid is your brother, don't you?
See clearly, this mother is not a child, but a dwarf!But looking at the clothes is valuable, so get the hell out of here! "

After finishing speaking, he slapped Xiaorou's cheek with his backhand, but in the middle of his hand, he felt a blur in front of his eyes, and then it was like hitting steel.

Just as he was about to yell angrily under the severe pain, there was already a change in front of him.

Yang Qing grabbed the palm of the man's hand and pinched it with five fingers. The crisp sound of bones and muscles breaking immediately exploded in the ears of several people around!

"what!!"

Amidst the miserable howling, the skinny man's hands had turned into dough that he kneaded at will.

The other six or seven people were obviously used to fighting on the street, they reacted instantly after being startled, and each took out their iron weapons and rushed forward with a shout.

Yang Qing looked coldly at the first person who raised his leg and kicked him, and didn't even bother to mobilize his true energy, so he flew up and kicked his calf head-on.

Xiaorou peeked out from behind him and saw the man's leg bone was kicked, like a sharp ax cutting dry wood, it broke instantly, only the flesh was connected!
At this time, another person stabbed in front of him with a short knife. Yang Qing raised his arms interlaced, pinched and twisted. The latter's arm was broken into five pieces immediately, and he fell to the ground screaming.

As soon as this person fell, a burly man behind him jumped up in the air again.

Under Xiaorou's incredible gaze, Yang Qing suddenly moved half a step forward, and suddenly punched the opponent's breastbone hard.

In an instant, the roar of heavy hammers and drums sounded all around, as if the surrounding air was also trembling.

And the huge body of the man who was punched was sent flying backwards obliquely, until he hit a brick wall before hitting the ground, and blood flowed out from seven orifices.

Perhaps this punch was too powerful, the crowd on both sides of the long street, who were still in chaos just now, fell silent in an instant, and all looked this way.

The rest of the people who rushed to the middle also stopped in place under Yang Qing's ferocity, not daring to take a step forward.

Seeing him turn around to leave, one of them boldly asked:

"Brother, which way is it, dare to leave a name, so that our Sishui Gang can..."

Yang Qing pulled Xiao Rou and was about to leave, when he heard the sound of someone behind him, he suddenly turned back, and kicked the man's neck to the ground to turn him back.

Seeing his body limp on the ground, he glanced at the remaining three people, and then dragged Xiaorou into the alley beside the road.

"You two stop!"

A group of about 20 officers and soldiers came after hearing the sound, but when they got closer and looked in the alley, there were no people there.

Walking in the dark alley, Xiaorou looked at Yang Qing without blinking, and only hurriedly avoided him when he looked back.

Seeing her embarrassed appearance, Yang Qing couldn't help smiling and said, "You're lucky to meet me. Tell me, where is your brother?"

Xiao Rou was taken aback when she heard the words, her face was full of disbelief.

"Don't you say that I really left this time."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Qing felt his hands tighten, and Xiao Rou had already pulled him to turn to another road.

Going around all the way, the houses on both sides gradually became low and dilapidated, and the sour smell began to appear in the air.

Most of the passers-by who occasionally passed by were disheveled or had fierce looks. He knew that he was in a poor area in the corner of the city.

Not far away, Xiaorou stopped in front of her and looked straight at a relatively spacious courtyard.

"This is it? You wait outside."

Yang Qing rubbed her disheveled hair, just about to take a step, Xiao Rou took two steps forward and grabbed his hand, and began to write in the palm of her hand.

"There are a lot of people inside."

"It's okay, just wait."

After speaking, he strode forward, casually dragged the two men guarding the gate into the courtyard, knocked them unconscious, and closed the courtyard door with his backhand.

Hearing a commotion in the room ahead, Yang Qing entered the main hall and saw a dozen people sitting around the table chatting and laughing.

He swept his eyes across the faces of the crowd, and saw that four or five of them seemed to be not weak in martial arts, he couldn't help being overjoyed in his heart, secretly thinking that this trip was worthwhile...

Xiaorou waited outside the courtyard for only a moment, hesitating whether to go in and have a look, but saw a figure shaking in front of her, and Yang Qing was already waving at her at the door.

He rubbed his eyes to make sure he read correctly.She immediately ran over and followed Yang Qing around the front hall to the backyard.

Entering the unsheltered backyard, Yang Qing could only feel the stench in the air getting stronger.

Surrounded by the walls, more than a dozen wooden cages were placed one after another, and the cages were crowded with people. At a glance, there were no fewer than 50 people locked in them.

Yang Qing looked around carefully, and found that they were all young children, the oldest not more than ten years old.

Taking advantage of Xiaorou's search for cages one by one, he turned around and walked back to the front yard, woke up one of the two fainted men and asked, "What do those kids in the backyard do?"

As soon as the man woke up, he opened his mouth and shouted, but the next moment he glanced at the blood stains on the window paper in the front hall, he swallowed back his shout and said: "Those children who were supposed to be sent to the palace were not selected in the end. Just stayed."

"Be clear."

"Yes, yes, I'll just say it." He deliberately raised his voice, and after a while, seeing that there was no movement in the front hall, he said honestly: "A few days ago, when eunuchs were recruited in the palace, the leader of our Sishui Gang sent someone Get some children back, castrate them and send them to the palace.

If you succeed, you can get five taels of silver, and if you fail, you will stay in the backyard and see if you can sell it..."

"Where did you get these kids?"

"Buy..." The man was about to compose a few sentences when suddenly he saw two blue lights flashing in Yang Qing's pupils, his mind was confused for a while, and he immediately said uncontrollably: "Some of them were sold because the family couldn't support them, and most of the rest were stolen. Robbed, or cheated."

"Is your leading brother in the front hall?"

"exist."

When Yang Qing got the exact news, he chopped off his neck with a hand knife, kicked another person to death with a flying kick, and then turned back to the backyard.

But as soon as he stepped into the courtyard, a warning sign suddenly rose in his heart.

Looking up at the eaves of the adjacent courtyard, I saw a swordsman wearing Taoist robes, a sapphire crown, and holding a whisk, smiling at him under the shadow of the moon:
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, the body of the emperor's daughter, how can he set foot in such a filthy place, let's go back to the palace with the poor Taoist."

At the same time, there were several sounds of clothes ripping through the air, and Yang Qing looked around.

Surrounding the walls and eaves, apart from a few strange figures, the woman with the sword who had chased him all the way to the river was also there.

Yang Qing ignored the others, and just looked at the Taoist priest: "Are you Bichen, the sixth among the eight masters of the Demon Sect?"

Upon hearing the words, Pichen nodded lightly and said, "It's a great honor for the poor to be cared by the emperor."

"Haha." Yang Qing looked up to the sky and yelled, his expression turned cold and he shouted in an instant: "What a fart to miss! A bunch of rebellious officials and thieves, all kneel down to me!"
