Chapter 38 The Inspector of Yanzhou

The red horse's four hooves were tilted, and its long mane was raising and falling in the wind. The horse's back was rising and falling. Zhang Meng, who bent over and rode on the saddle, gritted his teeth. Even though the rain was as heavy as a knife, he still looked straight ahead.

On the road more than a hundred steps away, a carriage was visible from afar. Even though blood marks were drawn from the body of the slow horse, the driver of the carriage was as crazy as he was urging him to beat him even more urgently.

This is a car pulled by three horses in parallel. The two wheels are large and the carriage is small. There is a thin column in the middle of the carriage, which supports an umbrella cover that can protect the sun and rain. Under the umbrella cover, a middle-aged man sits, needless to say, Liu Dai.

The car was shaking violently because it was moving too fast. The carriage seemed to be shaking from side to side on the sea. Liu Dai, who was sitting in the car, could be seen vaguely falling. If he hadn't grasped the carriage on both sides with his hands, he would have been thrown off.

On the left and right of the carriage, two other knights were driving side by side. They whistled and whipped the fast horses and kept trying to get close.

"Good horse, hurry!"

Zhang Meng could see clearly behind him, chanting quietly, patting the war horse with one hand and holding the sword with the other.

After chasing dozens of steps, the car that was panicked and finally lost control and rushed into the muddy and shallow pool on the side of the road, stirring up countless mud and water. The horse was shocked to escape from its reins and then broke away from its bridle. The car lost its balance and immediately overturned to one side.

Three slow horses galloped away one after another, neighing in the wilderness. Both knights showed joy when they saw this and quickly rushed into the carriage trapped in the mud.

One of the gray knights held a long halberd made of a hand halberd, and was inconvenient to ride on a horse, so he jumped off the horse's back first.

At this time, the driver crawled out of the broken shaft and was dizzy, but the cold blade of the long halberd suddenly stabbed in from the back of his neck!

"Puchi--"

Blood splattered and spilled on the ground, but was quickly washed away by the rain.

"Where is the master?" Another white knight carried a ring-headed knife and walked around the rear of the carriage, "Ha, hide here."

The gray-clad knight sneered twice, stepped forward and waved the long halberd, and smashed the horizontal blade into the carriage. For a moment, the wood chips flew away, and screams came from the bottom of the carriage at the same time.

"Ha ha ha ha......"

The gray-clad knight laughed unscrupulously, but before the laughter was over, he suddenly felt that the sunlight on his head was dim and he knew something was wrong. He turned his head and looked at it quickly, and what caught his eye was a red shadow!

The man and horse were united, and suddenly jumped high, and in the gray-white world, all over his eyes, it was like a red lightning dragon emerging from the sky!

The red horse neighed and fell to the ground. The gray-clad knight hurriedly set up a long spear to cover it. However, Zhang Meng gently stretched out his ape's arms, his sword blades and his eyes were long, and he gently avoided the wooden handle and slashed through the other party's throat.

"Uh...uh...uh..."

The long halberd fell to the ground, and the knight widened his eyes and couldn't help but kneel on the ground, covering his neck with his hands. However, the blood seeped out from his fingers was endless and could not stop it, and soon a small blood pit was accumulated in front of him.

"You, who are you..."

The white knight was frightened and looked at Zhang Mengru at the ghost. Then he looked at his companion. Although he was kneeling but not falling, his body was stiff and his eyes were lost. He was obviously dead.

At the subtle moment of two confrontation, the broken carriage trembled inappropriately, and then stretched out a pair of hands from the gap below and pulled out hard.

"Sure!"

Seeing this, the white knight ignored Zhang Meng and immediately took a breath, flipped back quickly, and rolled down the mud. His intention was to take the lead in robbing the people under the car.

Although the two sides are only five or six steps apart, at this critical moment, it is too late to step forward to stop them.

At that time, Zhang Meng looked at the short bow carrying the corpse of the gray knight, and his thoughts turned, abandoned the sword and took the bow, buckled the arrow, hooked the strings, pulled the bow, and spread it. His movements were flowing, without any slowness.

"Shu--"

When the arrow arrived, he was impartial and right behind the white knight's neck, the arrow was extremely fierce and came out through the neck.

“Wow!”

The knight in the white-clothed swaggered the knife in the hand of the white knight in a few times in the air, and finally fell to the ground with his body.

The rain is still there, and the world returns to peace.

When Zhang Mengshen walked through the quagmire that was deep and the ankle-free quagmire, the white-clothed knight suddenly felt blood blisters in his throat and kept twitching.

"If you meet me, you will be unlucky."

Zhang Meng murmured, and Jian Feng gently delivered the other party to the road.

At the same time, Liu Dai also struggled out of the underground carriage, crawling and breathing heavily.

Zhang Meng pulled out the manbu methodically and wiped the blood stains on the short sword in his hand. Then he inserted the sword back into the sheath, walked towards Liu Dai, leaned over and stretched out: "Ming Gong, the thief is dead, please get up."

"Ah...ah? It's you!"

Liu Daiguan was in a messy dress, still in shock, looking embarrassed. He looked up and looked up. Through the thin rain curtain, he saw his face close to him clearly, and his heart was mixed and he couldn't help but sigh.

Zhang Meng smiled and then helped Liu Dai sit on the broken shaft of the car.

The dejected Liu Dai was listlessly dusting off the mud and tidying his clothes, while looking at the two corpses that were lying in the mud a few steps away, and then stretched his neck to look around the vast wilderness.

Zhang Meng pretended to be calm and bowed: "Ming Gong, I will part with you in the Middle East Gate, and I don't want to meet here."

Liu Dai's eyes were dull and he looked into the distance and was in a daze. After a long time, he said, "Is it you who hit me that night?"

Zhang Meng nodded and said, "Yes, the situation is prohibited. I don't know if it was Ming Gong, so I'm a big offense. Please let Ming Gong accept it." He also said, "I just saved an old man who was working with Ming Gong. He told me that Ming Gong was in trouble, so I rushed over to make up for my mistakes."

Liu Dai looked coldly and said, "Why didn't you make up for your merits at the Middle East Gate that day?" It seemed that he still couldn't let go.

While talking, the sound of horse hooves on the road broke, and the two riders rushed over.

Zhang Meng subconsciously held his hand on the sword bar, but saw the other party's face clearly and slowly put his hand down.

Two middle-aged Confucian scholars came. According to Liu Dai, one of them was named Wang Yu and the other was named Wan Qian. They were both Liu Dai's confidants and went to Yanzhou with Liu Dai. After listening to the meaning of Liu Dai's words, when he officially took office, the two of them would serve as subordinates of the governor and serve as such senior assistants.

Wang Yu glanced at Zhang Meng sideways, feeling that he was a martial artist, and ignored him, so he turned over and got off the horse and walked straight to Liu Dai. Although he was also confused due to chaos and his heart was irritated, he still followed the etiquette and bowed respectfully: "Lord, you're fine."

Liu Dai glanced at him and said angrily: "It's okay? My leg is broken, what's the best?"

Wang Yu and Wan Qian looked at each other and were shocked. Zhang Meng coughed lightly and took over the words: "Mr. Ming, I just touched it, it shouldn't be broken, it's just hurting my skin."

"It's just that I hurt my flesh... it's just? It hurts so hard!" Liu Dai gently stroked his legs with one hand and held his forehead with the other. "The car has been destroyed, and I'm seriously injured. It's still a thousand miles away to Changyi. When will I arrive..."

The capital of the Yanzhou Governor's Ministry is located in Shanyang County, and Changyi County is the first county of Shanyang County. Because Shanyang County was originally called Changyi State, the word "Changyi" in the mouth of the people at that time was a custom that could refer to Changyi County or the entire Shanyang County.

Before Liu Dai finished speaking, Zhang Meng suddenly looked behind him. Seeing this, Liu Dai only thought that another thief attacked from behind. He was very panicked and did not care about the pain. He jumped up and wanted to avoid it.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Meng opened his eyes and relaxed his eyebrows in an instant, as if he was relieved. Liu Dai and the other two looked at him, but saw a small black dot from far to near, just a frightened roe deer.

"you......"

Liu Dai came back to his senses, his face flushed and wanted to accuse Zhang Meng, but when he spoke, he didn't know how to speak, so he had to swallow it and stared at Zhang Meng angrily.

Zhang Meng was so busy that he was concerned: "Mr. Ming, are your legs okay?"

"It's okay!" Liu Dai responded heavily and sat back on the shaft of the car.

"Lord, walk east along the avenue for another twenty miles to reach Yanshi County, and the county can provide the chassis." The chassis specifically refers to the chassis in the post station. Wan Qian stood on the side and whispered, "It's time to be late, and if it's delayed, you may not be able to arrive at the county town before nightfall. The season is unstable, and it is not the best way to walk on the rainy road at night."

Wang Yu also advised: "There are many thieves wandering around here. I don't know when it will surround you, or leave quickly."
