This mountain is mine

Chapter 101 The Wolf and the Cooperate

When Yu Miaomiao heard this, her eyes flickered slightly, but she soon felt relieved. When she came back from the outside, she had already told her family about the relationship between Wang Lang and Wang Guanhua.

It was very difficult for Wang Lang to enter Yu's house.Fortunately, I said it now, otherwise it would be troublesome to welcome people in.

Sure enough, I heard Mother Jiang's cold voice: "The humble house is simple, my uncle is too sick to get up, and the house is full of female relatives, so it is inconvenient to entertain Mrs. Wang, so as not to cause any quarrel, I hope Mrs. Wang will forgive me."

After a pause, Wang Lang's clear voice came from outside the door: "I'm here this time..."

"You don't need to tell the old lady why Mr. Wang is here. I won't send you far away." After Jiang's mother finished speaking, she turned around and came back.

At this time, Dr. Qiu said dryly: "The Yu family has such a temper. Men are not allowed to enter."

Mother Jiang pouted.

Tian Qing, who followed Wang Lang, looked at the yard and sighed, he only went in once when he carried the pear tree, and the Yu family is really particular.

Speaking of pear trees, Tian Qing raised his head and looked at the tree protruding from Yu's yard, and saw the glass shining in the sun on it, so he squinted his eyes, what is it?
However, seeing Wang Lang leave, he hurriedly followed, and didn't have time to watch.

Wang Lang put his hands behind his back, didn't say much anymore, turned around and left, he didn't see any strange people, he didn't care too much, but a close relative behind him mentioned, "Yingchuan Yu's family used to be related to Wang's family. , when the accident happened to Yu's family, the adults were young, so I'm afraid I don't remember it."

Wang Lang paused, thought carefully, and suddenly said, "I remember that my third aunt seemed to be named Yu."

He shook his head and said, "No wonder."

He had already thought in his heart that he seemed to have heard someone talk about the Yu family before he came to Fangling, and it seemed that someone was calling for grievances for the Yu family.Regardless of whether it is true or not, even if the Yu family colludes with the enemy, it is also the fault of the man. It is not easy for a few female relatives to survive in Fangling. Since this Sanhe soil has something to do with the Yu family, then I will make an extra contribution for the Yu family and ask for grace. .

At this time, an old man came over from a distance, and said nervously to Wang Lang: "My lord...It's already time for dinner, and the family has prepared simple tea and light meals, my lord, Doctor Qiu..."

Doctor Qiu explained lightly: "This is the house where the old man borrowed."

Tian Qing hurriedly said: "It's the clan uncle of the subordinate."

Wang Lang nodded, "I am indeed a little hungry. The craftsmen of this house are still checking, and I will not go back for a while, so I will trouble you."

Wang Lang is no stranger to eating at ordinary people's homes. He used to like to walk around the countryside to understand the people's conditions. He likes to chat with some old men, discussing farm harvests, and listening to people discussing the policies of the DPRK and China.

The old man immediately looked happy, there had never been a county magistrate like Wang Lang in Fangling.

Doctor Qiu and Wang Lang left, and the courtyard became quiet.

Inside the house, Yu Miaomiao continued to stare at Zhao Man to drink the medicine with peace of mind. Zhao Man had already spat out the grass stem, and with a disgusted face, he picked up the medicine bowl and drank it down in one gulp.

Yu Miaomiao took a cloth towel and wiped the medicine juice on his lips. He could drink the medicine by himself, but he didn't know what to do. He remembered that time before the two got married, he was also groggy with heartache, and acted like a baby in the middle of the night. When things came up, Yu Miaomiao suddenly understood.

Why didn't he have the energy to drink the medicine, this domineering man was actually acting like a baby.

It's a pity that she didn't go on the road, and she reacted too late.

Looking at Zhao Man who was still depressed, Yu Miaomiao suddenly smiled unkindly, picked up the grass stalk, and said intentionally: "The next time you don't have the strength to drink medicine, I will keep this grass stalk for you. "

Zhao Man looked at her suddenly, expressing his dissatisfaction with his eyes, Yu Miaomiao suddenly stood up, leaned down, and kissed him on the forehead, "You drank the medicine yourself, very good."

After finishing speaking, he patted his head again, and then quickly said, "I'll call Doctor Qiu. Sleep well."

Zhao Man's ears were already glowing red, "Stupid woman, what are you doing... I can bear this pain."

"Wang Lang has seen me, it doesn't matter if I go, just ignore him."

"No...he has other things to do. Just lie down with me for a while."

When Zhao Man said this, Yu Miaomiao knew that he must have ordered Dr. Qiu to do something else. They got a message from Tian Qing in the morning, and they went to find Dr. Qiu, and Zhao Man talked to Dr. Qiu for a long time.

Yu Miaomiao didn't insist anymore, took off her shoes and went to bed, lay beside Zhao Man and began to massage him.

In the hut filled with the smell of medicine, the setting sun shines in through the not tightly closed door, adding a bit of rosy color, time seems to have stopped quietly, only two shallow breaths are intertwined, the two of them have nothing to do. close together.

Outside the house, Lan Niang saw that there was no voice to speak, and Yu Miaomiao did not come out. The relationship between her and Zhao Man was normal during this period of time. Lan Niang sighed silently, and did not know what was wrong with Zhao Man and whether it could be cured.

At this time, Dr. Qiu was having dinner with Wang Lang in the small farmyard, accompanied by two old men from the village. Wang Lang was listening to the two of them talking, while Dr. Qiu looked calm and drank a few glasses of wine from time to time.

"...In addition to this brick and stone house, it is also a novelty to turn the barren hills at the head of the village into layers of fields..."

Wang Lang said: "Doctor Qiu, when this barren hill is really cultivated, can I come and see it?"

Wang Lang entered the village from the head of the village. The mountain was beside the road, and it was not too high. He clearly saw many people working on the mountain, so he was very curious at that time. Just advanced to the village.

Now Wang Lang is still thinking, if it is really possible to grow crops on hills like Fangling, it can be promoted.

Doctor Qiu responded indifferently. Wang Lang didn't care about his attitude towards people.

At this time, not far behind Wang Lang, Huai Zhen, who had had dinner with Tian Qing and was taking a nap under the tree in the yard, suddenly had his ears move, and his body rushed out like lightning, which also surprised the people in the yard .

I saw a man in black walking on the roof at high speed, Huaizhen stopped him after a few ups and downs, the two entangled each other, the man in black quickly lost the wind.

Waiting for Huaizhen to stab the man's heart sharply with a sharp sword, he was killed on the spot, but because of the stabbing of the sword, a loud arrow shot up from the chest of the man in black. The middleman has been paying attention to the movement, and I am afraid that he will ignore it.

Wang Lang looked at the sky, his expression suddenly became serious, and he stepped forward with a calm face.

The sounding arrow is used to send messages, or to ask for help, or to warn, no matter what the function is, it is not something that ordinary people can get casually.

Huai Zhen pointed to the corpse's ears, Wang Lang obviously noticed it too, his eyes were slightly surprised: "There are pierced ears, this is a foreigner, is it Xixia or Liao people?"

Men in the Song Dynasty would not pierce their ears, and men in barbarian lands today have this habit.

It would be very serious if spies from other races sneaked into Fangling. As soon as Wang Lang said this, the courtyard was suddenly quiet, and he didn't dare to breathe.

When Wang Lang stood up, he asked Tian Qing to avoid the irrelevant people and comfort him a little bit. This news should not be leaked for now, so as not to cause panic.

Then Wang Lang told Tian Qing: "This foreigner has a loud arrow on his body, there must be some helpers nearby. The loud arrow has already been sent out, and the spies have someone to respond, I'm afraid they will come and endanger the people. The bow and crossbow team from Shangyong County has been dispatched, untie the carriage, and ride forward without delay."

The arrow from this person's body has been fired just now, although Huaizhen released it unintentionally, but if it can attract spies from other races to kill, it is not a bad thing.

Tian Qing took the order and was about to go, Wang Lang ordered again in a cold voice: "Take this corpse, if someone deliberately obstructs it, it will be charged as collaborating with the enemy first."

Although Wang Lang is the magistrate of the county, he is not as good as the Zhu family who has been in business for many years and has deep roots. Many places are bound by the county magistrate Zhu's family. He said so because he was afraid that the Zhu family would play tricks.

Tian Qing responded, resisted the corpse and left quickly.

The atmosphere suddenly became gloomy, Wang Lang stood alone in the yard, the sunset in the sky was only the last smear of orange, the sky had already darkened, his hands were behind his back, Huaizhen was two steps away beside him.

"Huaizhen, what do you think these foreign spies are doing in Fangling? Did he pass by Liushutun today, or did they come here for Liushutun?"

Huai Zhen didn't answer him, he sighed and looked at the sky, "I hope Tian Qing can arrive before the foreigners arrive."

This time Huai Zhen replied to him: "I will protect you."

Wang Lang shook his head and chuckled, "If it wasn't for Huaizhen these few years, I would have died a long time ago."

"Someone is here." Huai Zhen said with his eyes fixed.

There were two knocks on the courtyard door, and Tian Qing's low voice came: "My lord, the crossbow team has arrived and set up an ambush at the head of the village."

Wang Lang breathed a sigh of relief, "Understood."

At this time, it was completely dark.The news did not spread to this courtyard, and because Wang Lang was sitting in the courtyard, everyone settled down.

The village fell asleep as before, except for the occasional crowing of night birds.

In the middle of the night, the moon was in the sky, and it was already the eleventh of April. Under the hazy moonlight, on the official road leading to Liushutun, the sound of galloping five horses was very clear.

Suddenly, the second man on horseback slowed down and said loudly, "Zhang Qin, the destination is not far away. Where are your people? You don't think you can kill Zhao Man, do you?"

The speaker had a pair of long and narrow peach eyes, and a ruthless look flashed in his eyes when he spoke, it was Li Yi.

Zhang Qin and Li Yi were driving side by side, their eyes were facing each other. At this moment, the two of them thought in a tacit understanding: the other party will soon become their stepping stone, so please bear with it for a while.

Zhang Qin looked away lightly, and said solemnly: "They are following in the dark, and they will naturally come out when they reach their destination."

"Zhao Man's strength should not be underestimated, you'd better ensure that your troops can make some noise."

Li Yi wanted to use Zhang Qin's influence as a vanguard, so he volunteered to lead the way for Zhang Qin and send them to have a fight with Zhao Man. No, he has already told Mr. Lian to send someone to Liushutun, Shangyong County on time, and wait for a bargain.

Zhao Man wanted to hide in the dark, but it was no longer possible. The Song Dynasty would be in chaos, so it was very good.

As for himself, he could take advantage of the fight between the two parties and leave safely.

Zhang Qin said: "You'd better make sure that your news is true, and all my secret men and horses have been exposed. Otherwise, it would be a great achievement to capture you, the prince of Xixia, alive."

Li Yi's expression was cloudy and cloudy under the moonlight, and Zhang Qin also had a hostile expression on his face. The two of them had their own thoughts and turned their eyes away.

It was no coincidence that these two people walked together, calculating and cooperating with each other.

Li Yi talked to Lord Lian about the benefits of arresting Zhao Man for a long time, but Lord Lian is not only not smart, but also timid.

"Because of arresting Zhao Man, the Zhang family spread false news to the crown prince. I know this, and I can't arrest him just because of your words. Besides, the person you are talking about is the Su family. My cousin did us a favor last time by giving Liu Tingzhou an invitation to welcome the banquet for General Huaihua. If it wasn't Zhao Man, he would offend the Su family. The Lian family is already..."

Therefore, even the adults were directly persuaded, adhering to the principle that one thing more is worse than one thing less.

Li Yi didn't want to wait, he heard about the Zhang family, so he asked about the Zhang family's affairs, even the adults didn't doubt him, so he told them all.

Therefore, as soon as Li Yi made up his mind, he went directly to Zhang Qin. Although the enemy's enemy is not a friend, they have a common goal at this time.

Li Yi believed that Zhang Qin's murderous intent and hatred for Zhao Man was no less than his for Zhao Man, and that a dog like Zhang Qin, now that he caught a piece of driftwood that could turn over, he would definitely take a gamble.

Sure enough, as Li Yi expected, Zhang Qin's leg was broken, and he stayed at home all day, but he calmed down. He thought about the decline of the Zhang family back and forth, and guessed that the Zhang family had entered into someone else. It is because of the trap that he ended up in today's end. As for whose trap, there is no need to think too much, it must be Zhao Man.

Zhang Qin is now tearing Zhao Man's heart away, but he can't find anyone.

So Li Yi came to the door. He didn't hide his identity. He used his identity as the prince of Xixia to tell Zhang Qin that he was sure of Zhao Man's hiding place.

Li Yijiang was tricked by Zhao Man on the battlefield, he made a death feud, and brought people to Fangling, and all of them were lost to Zhao Man. He told Zhang Qin about these two things, and Zhang Qin soon believed it.

"I'd rather kill by mistake than let it go." Zhang Qin and Li Yi hit it off quickly.

From Zhang Qin's point of view, Li Yi wants to seek revenge from Zhao Man, but unfortunately there is no one in his hands. He wants to borrow the power of the Zhang family. However, in the territory of Fangling, Li Yi, a prince of a foreign race, can't escape no matter what he thinks. It's not certain who will use Zhang Qin's palm.

Li Yi believed that the Zhang family would only become cannon fodder for him to attack Zhao Man, so he let him display the final value of the Zhang family.

While speaking, Liushutun was already in sight.

"It's just ahead." Li Yi pointed to the village that seemed to be shrouded in a layer of tulle.

Zhang Qin slapped his hands, and there were rustling sounds all around, forty or fifty people in black came out from behind or from the trees beside him, or from the woods.

Li Yi's eyes lit up, Zhang Qin, a cripple, still has some skills, and there are such a group of masters.

Li Yi thought to himself, since the last sneak attack on Zhao Man, there must be helpers around Zhao Man, and if these people confront Zhao Man's people, they will definitely make a big commotion.

"This king kindly reminds you that Zhao Man has a kind of medicine in his hand, and he will fall down when he smells it."

Zhang Qin snorted coldly, looked at Li Yi contemptuously, and thought to himself, Fanbang is a small country, and he has never seen the world. He has traveled all over the world, and he has never seen any drug or poison. If there is a drug, there will naturally be a solution. Completely prepared, there is no room for loss.

"Come in!" Zhang Qin commanded in a deep voice, and the man in black walked forward like a ghost. Seeing that the man disappeared into the shadows, Zhang Qin secretly winked at the people around him: Watch Li Yi, don't let him run away up.

Li Yi smiled coldly, his eyes flickered, trying to catch him, it was a dream, now is the best time to escape, he has to notify someone to come and see.

Sudden--

"Duh, duh, duh" the sound of firing arrows sounded, and there were several screams and curses not far away.

The horse was stimulated by the sudden smell of blood in the air, and became uneasy.

"It's been tricked! There are ambushes everywhere! Let's go!" A heavy shout came.

Zhang Qin was as white as a ghost, his gaze towards Li Yi was reddened, full of murderous intent, and he said sinisterly, "Catch Li Yi!"

Li Yi was taken aback when he heard the changes ahead, he immediately thought, could it be that Zhao Man could have expected him to come, so he laid an ambush in advance?Could it be that he has been stared at by Zhao Man for a long time?Impossible, he was already very cautious.
No matter what, he doesn't have time to think now, so it's important to leave as soon as possible. There are three people around Zhang Qin who are staring at Li Yi. Upon hearing Zhang Qin's order, they quickly cut the neck of the horse under Li Yi with a knife. .
