Chapter 12 Mind (2)
Dong Yu didn't bother him, holding a wine jar in one hand, drinking wine one bottle after another, with a faint smile on his face.
Maybe, Ah Chou would say his thoughts; maybe, he was still the same.
But no matter what, I believe that this conversation is enough to truly become a descendant of the Dong family.
*******
Outside the hall, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves.
Immediately afterwards, someone seemed to fall from the horse, and there was a clamor outside.
"What's wrong?"
Dong Yu frowned and stood up. Dong Qi also woke up. He sighed and walked to the door as Dong Yu stood up.
Outside the door, a general was covered in bruises, as if he had just walked off the battlefield. Several slaves were supporting him. When they saw Dong Yu, the general was kneeling in front of Dong Yu, and said unhappy: "Miss, it's not good!"
Why does this scene look familiar?
Dong Qi looked at the generals and looked at Dong Yu again. Fifteen days ago, the eldest sister and the fourth sister seemed to have played this game, why are they here again now?
Dong Yu's face was gloomy and he asked, "What are you panic? Tell me slowly!"
"Miss Four, something happened to Miss Four!"
Sure enough, Sister Fourth might have wanted to find a step down, so she played this drama. Dong Qi raised his lips slightly and asked with a smile: "Did Sister Fourth meet a strong man and was captured by the strong man?"
"That's right... Hey, Master, how do you know?"
Even Dong Yu couldn't help laughing, "What kind of trick is this fourth sister? I just played it once, why are you here again? Okay, get up... Go back and tell your fourth lady. If you want to come back, come back obediently and don't play tricks."
"Yes..." The general responded instinctively, but then changed his face, "No! Miss, Young Master, it's true. Something happened to the fourth lady... On the way back, we met the Taipingdao thief who escaped from the city. Some of them recognized Miss Four, but in a melee, everyone except me died in battle."
After Dong Yu and Dong Qiu looked at each other, the smile on their faces gradually disappeared.
"Where are those four ladies?"
"One of those Taoist thieves seems to have a good status and captured the fourth lady."
"Where have you gone?"
"I was killed at that time, and I vaguely heard them say that I would take the fourth lady away and give it to Shao Ge... I didn't hear the others clearly."
Dong Qi's hand was trembling and he suddenly shouted, "Prepare horses, prepare horses for me!"
"A Chou, calm down!" Dong Yu grabbed Dong Qi's arm.
The eldest sister's strength was not small at all. When Dong Qi struggled, he immediately had such an idea. At least, it was about the same strength as his second brother-in-law. After such struggle, he could not shake off his elder sister's hand. However, Dong Qi was not in the mood to think about this. If Dong Yu hadn't grabbed him, he would have punched him long ago.
"Sister, let go!"
"A Chou, don't worry... At least we know now that the Si Yatou is safe. Those people dare to do this even though they know her identity, obviously they have a ulterior motive. Besides, do you know what Shao Ge is? Where is it?"
"this……"
"Shaoge is a tribe of the Qiang people, named Shaoge Qiang. The leader is called Shaoge, who specializes in the activities of horse thieves. They come and go in the Western Liang realm, and have a good relationship with many Qiang people. The government army tried to encircle and suppress them several times but failed to catch them. What's the use of running out alone? Besides, there are quite a few of them."
"But, but the fourth sister..."
"Don't worry!" Dong Yu thought for a while and immediately ordered the generals around him to say, "Immediately sprinkle the scouts and find me the traces of Shao Ge... By the way, why do they go to Shao Ge? Logically speaking, they should evacuate Xiliang immediately."
Dong Yuan's general replied: "I vaguely heard them say that they were going to discuss something with Shao Ge... Also, the road to stability has been blocked by Captain Niu. Judging from their appearance, it seems that they have fought hard with Captain Niu's people."
Dong Yu looked at the generals quietly, and then suddenly smiled after a moment.
"What's your name?"
"The villain was named Emo. He was originally a slave of Bai Qiang. When he was young, he came to Lintao with his wife and later under the jurisdiction of the Fourth Miss."
"You are doing well and very smart. In that case, you can still find out so much news. You are a talented person. So, don't call me Emo. Since you are already working in my Dong family, your surname is Dong... Well, just call me Dong E. I will give you another word, name Bai Mo, which is the foundation of not forgetting your Bai Qiang. In the future, I will obey the young master's order. Do you understand?"
"A villain, a villain will be trampled on his heart to repay the grace of the lady and the master."
Dong Baimo? Dong Baimo... What is this name? But the eldest sister really has the means, just give a surname and a name, and then bribe a person's loyalty. Think about it from another perspective, in fact, people of this era, especially those at the bottom, have very simple requirements. Giving him a surname is equivalent to entering the Dong family's gate.
Mo underestimated this surname. The family generals were divided into different levels. They were given surnames, so they were considered high-ranking family generals.
Dong Qi glanced at Dong Yu and secretly admired his elder sister's methods.
At this time, the private soldiers of the family and the family had gathered in the ranch, with about 200 people.
Someone even brought in more than a dozen hunting dogs and lined up in the ranch. When Dong Qi came, he didn't expect such a thing to happen, so he didn't bring weapons. He glanced at the weapon stand, and he walked over and grabbed a nine-eared eight-ring machete, shook it gently in his hand, and the Hualingling sounded straight.
A family general brought a war horse, and Dong Qi turned over the horse.
"Sister, I'll take someone to chase you. You can immediately send someone to find your second brother-in-law and ask him to send more staff to the ranch. I guess those Taipingdao thieves have ulterior motives and may put their minds on our ranch. You must be careful."
Dong Yu smiled slightly, "I don't care about my sister yet. Ah Chou, don't come back if you don't save your fourth sister."
"Young Master, be careful!" Lu Yi blushed and reminded.
"My boys, come with me!"
Dong Qi turned his horse's head and was about to set off. Suddenly, a young man rushed out of the crowd and knelt in front of Dong Qi's horse.
"Young Master, take me with me, I can help."
Dong Qi looked closely and found that it was the Ma Nu who was rescued by him.
This Ma Nu is not tall, looks thin and small, looking weak. Dong Qi frowned, "What can you help me?"
"The villain has learned some tracking methods with others since he was a child, and is also proficient in dog language and can command hunting dogs."
Dong Qi felt a little moved, and he was still a capable guy. But looking at the figure of this Ma Nu, he was really a little...
As if he saw the worry in Dong Qi's heart, Xiao Manu said loudly: "Young master, don't underestimate Xiao Tie. When it comes to fighting and killing people, Xiao Tie is no worse than anyone else."
"Take him a horse!"
Dong Qi thought about it and turned around and ordered.
But Ma Nu said sarcastically: "Young Master, Xiao Tie can't ride a horse."
A Qiang man who can't ride a horse? Dong Qi was furious, "You can't ride a horse, why are you running out to join in the fun?"
"Although the villain can't ride a horse, he is born with a scud. There are not many horses in this ranch that can run past me."
God knows if it is true!
This scree... Forget it, just do whatever he wants.
Dong Qi said: "Then follow me. If I fall behind, I won't wait for you. By the way, what weapon are you using?"
"The villain makes good use of two iron-folding knives."
Ma Nu said, taking a knife bag from his body and pulling out two short knives from it.
Dong Qi nodded, "Since that's the case, let's go."
After saying that, he rode his horse and galloped behind him. More than 200 war horses ran out, and more than a dozen shepherd dogs also barked and walked wildly.
After secretly looking at Ma Nu, Dong Qi was really surprised.
Although the war horse under his crotch was not good, it was also one of the few good horses in the pastures. The horse slave ran wildly, and it was not slower than the war horse. It even ran vaguely in front. More than a dozen sheepdogs followed him and heard the horse slave barking from time to time. Every barking caused the dogs to bark wildly.
The horse team disappeared into the night, and the barking of the hunting dogs came from a distance.
Dong Yu and Lu Yi stood in front of the felt bag one after another, and then turned around after watching the horse team disappear.
"Miss, Master, he won't have any trouble."
"Don't worry... As long as A Chou calms down, no one can take advantage of him. But I don't understand, how did A Chou know that those Taiping Taoist thieves have other plans? Could it be that he has other forces in his hands that I don't even know about you or me?"
Lu Yi shook her head and said, "Miss, don't say that. Although I haven't followed the young master for a long time, I have been counting for three years. The young master rarely deals with people and doesn't even go out frequently. How is that possible?"
"But he..."
Lu Yi said: "This matter is strange. Since I first told the young master Taipingdao about it, the young master was very unhappy. He knew that the great master had three brothers, and he also knew how the great master established his education. And I don't know much about these things... Anyway, I can feel that the young master is very disliked about Taipingdao."
Dong Yu frowned, "That's really strange! However, the soldiers of Lintao County are getting worse and worse. How Niu Fu led the soldiers, he couldn't even take down a group of Taoist thieves. This really disappointed me. When this matter is over, I will definitely deal with this kid well and see if he dares to be lazy in the future. Lu Yi, follow me to patrol the ranch."
Several generals immediately brought the war horses. After Dong Yu got on the horse, he couldn't help but look at the direction where Dong Qi left.
