Chapter 270 Big Fish? Wounded?
Since we know that these are hard times, how can it be so easy to get through them?
When Xing Bingyi informed Concubine Wei of the news, she was surprised, then happy, and then frowned. She asked worriedly, "Why didn't the princess reveal her identity? Wouldn't that be superfluous? Where can we find another Concubine Kang?"
"I was quick to speak."
Xing Bingyi did not dare to confess that she was being molested, but when Concubine Wei asked her a question in response, she was very worried that Zhao Fujin would reveal her identity, so that "Fan Rui" would not take action later.
No way? Xun De, please don't hurt me
At this time, Xing Bingyi was as panicked as a frightened deer, but he did not forget to comfort Concubine Wei.
"Don't worry, mother. Fan Rui seems to be saving people one by one. It won't be too late to tell him directly after he rescues us first."
"Well, that's fine too."
Concubine Wei didn't know the truth, so she nodded and reminded him, "There's no one in Xunde's room now, so you should hurry over to help. If the Jin people find out, we won't be able to leave."
"Yes, yes, I'll go right away."
Xing Bingyi bowed a thousand times, said goodbye to Concubine Wei and quickly returned to his bedroom last night, but his heart could not calm down for a long time.
As expected, she sat at the door like a woman waiting for her husband to come. Even after nightfall, Fan Rui still did not show up. Her inner anxiety and restlessness kept growing.
The devil? You have such a small courage to use such a domineering nickname?
During the Spring and Autumn Period, the Chu general Tang Jiao flirted with the king's favorite concubine at a banquet. King Zhuang of Chu then ordered everyone to take off their helmet tassels, which eventually led to a beautiful story between the monarch and his subjects.
Fan Rui, Fan Rui, please come back soon. I will forgive you for what happened.
Xing Bingyi helped Zhao Fujin cover up, and finally blamed herself for handling the matter improperly, but she didn't know that Yang Chang had never planned for her from the beginning.
This guy was holding his sister-in-law and performing the [Centipede Step] to move through the courtyards, streets and crowds. Although Zhao Fujin was full of surprise during the journey, she was weak and sad, so she cooperated without making any sound until she met Zhao Fujin at the meeting point.
Although Zhao Fujin was disguised as an old woman, her voice was familiar to Zhao Fujin. The sisters recognized each other and hugged each other and cried.
Yang Chang was standing guard at the door. When he heard the crying, he quickly retreated and looked at Zhao Fujin and reminded him quietly, "This is not the time to talk. We haven't really escaped from the wolf's den yet. We have to wait until we are out of the city and somewhere safe to talk about the past."
"Yang Lang is right."
Zhao Fujin nodded seriously, and then extended his hand to Yang Chang, "Give me the [camouflage feather], and we will set off now."
"Wait a minute."
Yang Chang stopped Zhao Fujin and turned to ask Zhao Fujin: "Little sister, how is your relationship with that maid? If you have a deep relationship and can't leave, brother-in-law will go back and use the last [camouflage feather] on her, and then hurry out of the city. Then, Madam will have to leave the city by herself."
“I don’t care.”
Before Zhao Fujin finished speaking, she looked at Yang Chang in surprise, frowned and murmured, "What maid? My concubine and the prince consort were tricked out of Tokyo, and no servants or maids followed us."
"what?"
Yang Chang scratched his cheek and asked back: "Last night and this morning, the woman in your room."
"You mean her? She is Princess Kang!"
"What?"
"I have been feeling weak lately, and it is the princess who is taking care of me."
When Zhao Fujin heard that the person was Princess Kang, he thought of Zhao Gou colluding with the Jin people to slander Yang Chang, and immediately interrupted: "Princess Kang asked my ninth brother to save him himself. It is better to save father than to save more [disguise feathers]."
"Can it be saved?"
Zhao Fujin and Zhao Ji were imprisoned separately and had not seen each other for many days. When faced with the choice between her sister-in-law and her biological father, she did not hesitate to put Xing Bingyi out of her mind.
Yang Chang spread his hands and said, "The Emperor was invited to play polo this morning. If you want to save him, you have to wait for the next opportunity. However, the Emperor and Queen Mother Zheng have always been on the most stringent precautions. Once my sister is rescued and the Jin people notice it, subsequent rescue will be more difficult."
"That's it"
"That's all I have to say. Your Majesty is not in danger of death. You should leave the city as soon as possible. If the Jin army finds out that my little sister is missing, they might seal off the city and search."
With Zhao Fujin's words, Yang Chang decisively carried Zhao Fujin on his back and rushed to the south gate of Zhending City.
When they arrived at the place, they found that the South Gate was under martial law and no one was allowed to pass. It turned out that Zhending Prefecture was unwilling to surrender under the rule of the Jin people. Erlido deliberately played polo with Zhao Ji outside the South Gate in order to resolve the hostility of the Han people and officials.
Yang Chang and Zhao Fujin were rescuing people just now, and had no idea that the South Gate was temporarily closed. They wasted precious time for no reason, and when they arrived at the West Gate of Zhending, Yang Chang's invisibility time was running out.
Faced with this situation, Yang Chang should have passed the interrogation and left the city normally, while Zhao Fujin should have taken his sister through in stealth, but they encountered an emergency at that time.
Since the South Gate of Zhending was blocked, most of the people who originally entered and exited the city through it flocked to the West Gate, resulting in long queues under the corridor of the West Gate.
Zhao Fujin cannot bring Zhao Fujin and others with them. If any trouble occurs during the journey, it will be difficult for her weak sister to escape. And her sister's magic of traveling cannot have any obstacles in front of her.
"Yang Lang, what should we do now? Switch to another city gate?"
"That's too late."
Yang Chang shook his head slightly and said sternly: "If the city gate is changed again, not only will my invisibility be gone, but my sister's will be gone too. If the Jin army recognizes her by then, won't she be exposed?"
"What should we do? Should we disguise her as well?"
"If there is no other choice, I can only..."
Yang Chang suddenly stopped walking. He saw someone leading a big buffalo and passing by the guards. The cattle and sheep market of Zhending was just inside the west gate.
I have the talent of [Controlling Beasts], so why not use this big buffalo to force a path through? Then the Zhao sisters around me can take advantage of the chaos and follow me out of the city.
Thinking of this, Yang Chang immediately pulled Zhao Fujin and whispered his plan to him.
"Use a cow to clear the way? Will it listen to you?"
"Princess, forgot to seal Dragon Mountain. Then the wild boar will listen to me, right?"
"Ah this."
"That's it. Get ready quickly. I don't have much time."
After Yang Changyan finished speaking, he caught up with the buffalo, grabbed the front half of the reins and violently broke it, then jumped onto the buffalo's back to make it turn, and rushed down the tunnel like a madman.
"moo"
The buffalo roared and galloped away. The cattle dealer, holding the reins, was stunned for a moment before realizing that his cattle had run away. He turned around and shouted, "Hey, my cattle, that's my cattle!"
"That is."
"Where did the cow come from?"
"Stop it quickly!"
A Jin soldier who was interrogating people at the entrance of the tunnel had just received the "exit money" from the people, but suddenly he felt dizzy and flew away passively, and the copper coins he had extorted were scattered all over the ground.
“This cow is crazy!”
"Quickly open!"
The narrow corridor under the city was originally lined up in an orderly manner, but for a moment the Jin soldiers and civilians were in chaos, but they all tacitly avoided to the sides.
The peddler who followed saw the big buffalo knock several Jin soldiers flying, so he stopped immediately and dared not continue chasing the buffalo. He thought that his buffalo had caused such a disaster, so wouldn’t it be tantamount to seeking death to chase the buffalo now?
Without any hesitation, the guy immediately turned around and ran towards the east gate. On the way, he looked at the broken rope in his hand, not understanding how it broke.
The frizzy and wiry rope looked like it was about to break, but the peddler didn't feel a thing. He thought, if the buffalo broke it by itself, wouldn't its nose be torn first?
The peddler couldn't figure it out and didn't want to think about it. The huge sense of loss he had just felt after losing his cow had been overshadowed by his desire to survive. Although a cow was very valuable, it was nothing compared to his life. At this moment, he just wanted to escape from the city quickly.
And his big buffalo, ridden by Yang Chang, galloped all the way and rushed out of the west gate of Zhending, with the Zhao sisters following closely behind invisibly.
Soon after leaving the city, Yang Chang's invisibility effect disappeared. He was afraid that the Jin soldiers would come to chase the "mad buffalo", so he took the initiative to drive the buffalo away.
As the buffalo ran away, Zhao Fujin stopped beside Yang Chang with Zhao Fujin and pulled out the invisible [camouflage feathers]. "I have never seen anyone riding a buffalo, my brother-in-law is amazing."
"hehe."
Zhao Fujin smiled and said nothing, then asked Yang Chang, "My magic speed can only take one person, what should I do next?"
"Of course you take my little sister and go first. I'll go find a mount and go back to Weisheng."
"But without Yang Lang watching over the road, I can't move very fast, and I'm worried about you being alone behind me."
"Ok?"
Yang Chang smiled dumbly, thinking, are you playing racing? You want me to be your navigator? Then he smiled and comforted: "My husband has rich experience in the world and is proficient in disguise. What is there to worry about? By the way, my little sister can't go on the road like this, she has to disguise herself."
"Makes sense."
As the saying goes, all women love beauty. Seeing her sister and brother-in-law singing the same tune, Zhao Fujin's pale face showed some hesitation.
"I want to dress up as an old woman too?"
"this one"
Yang Chang first looked at his younger sister and then his elder sister, and said with a smile: "Your sister and I are playing the role of an old farmer couple. Can you please take a loss and play the role of a farmer's daughter?"
"Sister, what do you think?"
"Now that Yang Lang has spoken, I have no objection."
"Oh"
Maybe it was because Elder Yang’s peasant appearance was not pleasing, Zhao Fujin couldn’t get close to his brother-in-law, but seeing that Zhao Fujin obeyed his words, he had no choice but to follow the two of them all the way.
Yang Chang took the two sisters to the nearest town to buy disguise materials and helped Zhao Fujin transform into a peasant girl.
Since the war between Song and Jin broke out, there has been a serious shortage of horses in all states and counties, so Yang Chang's idea of buying a horse failed to materialize. In the end, he had to settle for the second best and buy a donkey for transportation.
At that time, the donkey was wearing a cart board, and Yang Chang was going to take it off after buying it.
He could endure riding a donkey, but driving a donkey cart seemed like he was imitating Zhao the God of Carts, and he felt a little reluctant. Besides, the donkey was pulling a heavy load, so it would take longer to return to Weisheng.
Seeing Yang Chang taking off the primer, Zhao Fujin asked curiously, "What is Yang Lang doing?"
"I'm riding alone, I don't plan to put on a bike board"
"No." Zhao Fujin waved his hand quickly, "We are not in a hurry anyway, let's get in the car and go on the road together. My sister is weak right now, and it is not suitable for her to walk around for a long time."
"Okay."
Yang Chang was forced to drive a donkey cart for business. Although he had the talent of [Controlling All Beasts], his sister-in-law had just had a miscarriage and was weak. It was not easy for her to drive too fast and cause bumps, so he could not surpass the speed of the God of Cars.
Donkeys have great endurance, are easy to raise, and are highly obedient. They are much easier to raise than horses and are widely used by the public to carry people and pull things. However, they do not have the explosive power, speed, and courage of horses, so they cannot replace the role of horses on the battlefield.
Yang Chang drove a donkey cart during the day and slept at night, traveling only a few dozen miles a day. It took him four or five days to reach the border of Xingzhou.
Zhao Fujin originally thought that it would be a very pleasant trip to take a car back to Weisheng, enjoying the scenery and reminiscing with her sisters along the way. However, the donkey cart only had a floor, which could not protect her from the wind, rain or sun. Most importantly, it was not as comfortable as a horse carriage, so she changed her mind when she arrived in Xingzhou.
Zhao Fujin was feeling unwell at the time, and wanted to go back early to let An Daoquan recuperate, so he performed a ritual to take his sister away first, and promised to go home and settle his sister, and then immediately turned back to pick up Yang Chang.
Yang Chang took good care of Zhao Fujin, how could he bear to see a princess running back and forth? Moreover, he was only less than 200 miles away from Fengyue Pass in Luzhou, and he could reach there in three or four days at the latest by donkey.
So after the Zhao sisters left, this fellow rode his donkey as hard as he could, but he didn't know that the donkey was suppressed by his "riding skills" and had exhausted its potential in the past few days. He was exhausted when he reached Wu'an, Cizhou.
Yang Chang originally wanted to change his donkey in Wu'an, but he unexpectedly saw a yellow cow in the market.
This guy had experience riding a cow in Zhending, and he knew very well that a cow's speed and endurance were better than a donkey's, but ordinary people couldn't control it. He happened to have a talent for riding, so he immediately exchanged the donkey for the cow to make up the difference, and planned to ride the cow for the next hundred miles.
Of course, whether it is a cow, a donkey, or the wild boar from Fenglong Mountain, they are all faster than ordinary war horses.
It’s a pity that Yang Chang didn’t see even a horse during his whole journey, but there must be God’s will.
On August 12, this guy unexpectedly saw dozens of Jin cavalrymen escorting a carriage when they were fifty miles away from Fengyue Pass.
You know my buddy is in a hurry, so you took the initiative to come and give him a horse?
Could there be a big fish in that carriage?
Yang Chang was delighted to see the prey, and urged the old ox under him to gallop straight towards the Jin people.
As the two sides got closer, the Jin army scouts thought it was some ferocious beast and reminded the cavalry behind them to prepare for battle.
When the scout discovered that it was a man riding a cow, he immediately cried out: "Cow, it's a cow, someone is riding a cow!"
"No, it's coming towards us!"
“What does the bull rider want?”
"Stop him quickly and don't let the cow get close to the carriage!"
The cavalrymen were talking to each other, and before they could work out how to stop them, Yang Chang had already approached on his oxen.
When Yang Chang drove the yellow ox straight into the cavalry, the Jin cavalry instinctively gave way and then watched the ox hit the carriage.
boom.
"This man is looking for death!"
"kill him!"
"Little Lord!"
The Jin people communicated with Yang Chang in Jurchen language. Yang Chang did not understand a word, but he could feel their eagerness.
At the same time as the ox hit the carriage, he leaped to the ground. The iron rods of the nearby Jin cavalry were hitting Yang Chang's head.
call.
He dodged easily by leaning sideways, and with incredible accuracy, he grabbed the front end of the iron rod and shouted, "Get off your horse!"
With just one tug, the cavalryman lost weight and fell, and the iron rod in his hand was taken away.
It fell to the ground and its head shattered.
Just as Yang Chang tried to grab the sword with his bare hands, dozens of Jin cavalrymen surrounded him, with eyes that looked as if they wanted to eat him alive.
Hoo ho ho.
Yang Chang raised his iron rod and swept it, and several cavalrymen fell off their horses. Then he took advantage of the situation and leaped onto the empty horses' backs.
This guy could fight one against a thousand, how could dozens of Jin cavalrymen stop him? They were killed in a few moves.
Yang Chang did not chase after it, because the "big fish" in the carriage had already shriveled out of the carriage.
He urged his horse forward and took a look. He saw that the man had golden rings on his ears and had an obvious Jin appearance, but his left leg and left hand were broken, and it seemed that he had been injured by a cannon.
Big fish? Wounded?
No, this looks like the wounded soldier from Lijialing who was blown up by Ling Zhen?
"Old dog!"
"brute!"
"I am going to kill you!"
"You're bullying me because I don't understand? Stop making so much noise!"
Yang Chang frowned, raised the iron rod and swept it across the ground, hitting the man's head like playing polo.
boom.
