Father's Day Apocalypse

Chapter 28 Fireworks in Half City

At that time, they had passed the Dajinyun Mountains, and three hundred miles to the north, they could reach Xiangshui Bay in [-] days. Lu Shiying's army was stationed near Xiangshui Bay.

Zhong Qiyan was secretly anxious, afraid that it would be too late, but seeing Meng Duo sitting under the tree drinking expressionlessly, she couldn't help but put her head closer, and asked Meng Duo in an ambiguous posture to outsiders, and whispered, "Are you in a hurry?"

Meng Duo smiled, patted him on the head, stood up and stretched his waist, and said, "Waiting is waiting, follow me to the city, and I heard from passers-by that the wine in Jiangyang City is better than Dachang. Be delicious."

Zhong Qiyan looked at the smile on Meng Duo's face. If the second prince hadn't said it himself and heard it with his own ears, Zhong Qiyan would never have believed that Meng Duo had any relationship with Mr. Lu. If there was, how could Meng Duo be indifferent? How could he be indifferent?

Jiangyang City is rich in wine, fireworks and firecrackers. The fireworks used in the Kyoto celebrations come from Jiangyang. The fireworks banquet that Meng Duo organized for Zhong Qiyan was transported from Jiangyang to Kyoto.

Walking on the streets of Jiangyang City, Meng Duo suddenly pointed to a firecracker tube with a unique shape in front of a firework workshop, and said, "This is just the years of Pingjiang, and that is just Ling Yunfu, a beggar wrapped in red paper drinking alone."

The owner of the shop hurried out when he heard Meng Duo's words, and said: "The accent of the guest officer sounds like a foreigner, but his eyesight is very good. You are right, these firecrackers are indeed called by that name."

Zhong Qiyan was surprised: "Have you been to Jiangyang?"

Meng Duo glanced at him, and A Luo explained: "Young Master Zhong may have forgotten, the master told you at the fireworks banquet last year."

When Zhong Qiyan saw the deer in the crowd, he forgot everything, so he said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry."

Meng Duo didn't say anything, and stepped into the fireworks workshop.The owner of the fireworks workshop warmly entertained them, and Meng Duo walked around the workshop and ordered a batch of fireworks and firecrackers from the boss.

Zhong Qiyan's servant looked at Meng Duo secretly, as if he wanted to see from Meng Duo what his intentions were. Meng Duo treated him as air and said to Zhong Qiyan: "Since you forgot, I will play it again so that you can see clearly." .”

Zhong Qiyan was worried about the war in the north and didn't have the time to spend it here. "It's not good for my brother, but now is not the time to be willful. Let's go back quickly after a while."

Meng Duo said: "You can leave as long as you want, I will release it tonight, until when you remember these fireworks I bought for you, and when will you stop."

Zhong Qiyan had no choice but to stay in the city with Meng Duo, had dinner together, and set off fireworks for half of the city.

The night in the city was as bright as day, when Lu Ke received the news, he sneered three times, feeling ridiculous at the second prince's scheme.

The next day, when Meng Duo was waiting for Zhong Qiyan at the inn, he saw a man who was so handsome and handsome. Meng Duo was used to seeing Lu Shiying, and should have been tired of the beauty in the world, but for some reason he watched it several times , even Zhong Qiyan couldn't help reminding Meng Duo, and Meng Duo reluctantly looked away.

"What's wrong?" Zhong Qiyan asked.

Meng Duo shook his fan, smiled, covered his mouth with the fan, and said, "Don't you think that man is pretty?"

Zhong Qiyan has no feelings for a man's beauty, and if he really wants to comment on a man's beauty, Mr. Lu should be "good-looking".Seeing Zhong Qiyan's incomprehension, Meng Duo shook his head and said nothing, his lowered eyes flashed, and he finally knew why he felt strange when he saw that person for the first time.

The man wore a bullet around his waist, with a black-gold casing, knotted with red thread, and decorated with tassels. People who didn’t know him would think it was a special accessory. Only Meng Duo knew that this bullet should never appear. it's here.

Meng Duo thought of Lei Jian and the speculation that Lu Shiying had told him, and couldn't help laughing. He was thinking of a way to find this person, but he unexpectedly appeared in front of him.

Meng Duo said: "I'll go back to the house, you wait for me here." Meng Duo entered the house, thinking about what he should take out of the bag to attract the other party's attention, he first took out the little leaf, and the little leaf was sleeping , snorted dissatisfied, and then took out many things, but none of them were what Meng Duo wanted, until he took out the small pistol he used.

Meng Duo went downstairs with the gun, walked up to Zhong Qiyan, and handed it to him, "I just met a grocer and bought this gadget."

Zhong Qiyan asked: "What is this?"

Mundo said, "A little thing."

Zhong Qiyan was not very interested, and said anxiously: "Shall we go back?"

Meng Duo nodded and stretched out his hand. Zhong Qiyan handed the gun over. Meng Duo's hand trembled for some reason, but he failed to catch it. The small silver gun hit a teacup, and then fell to the ground together with the teacup. little movement.

Zhong Qiyan was taken aback, and Meng Duo asked, "Are you okay?" He called Xiao Er again, and asked someone to clean up the debris.Xiao Er cleaned up the debris, picked up the small gun on the ground and asked, "Guest officer, do you want this?"

Meng Duo said no more, Zhong Qiyan said: "Is it expensive? Or keep it, you like it."

The movement here attracted the attention of the people in the inn. Meng Yuguang caught a glimpse of the man looking at the gun in the little second hand in surprise, so he took it from the little second hand and said, "Let's go, go out for a walk."

Zhong Qiyan was dragged away by Meng Duo, and within a few steps, A Luo and the servant found someone following them at the same time, A Luo asked, "Master, what should I do?"

Meng Duo said: "Go and invite him over, just say that Meng wants to invite the young master to have a cup of tea."

Zhong Qiyan disapproved of looking at Meng Duo, Meng Duo said: "Don't be angry, I don't want to look at him."

Zhong Qiyan felt that Meng Duo was a little frivolous and superficial, and it was difficult to associate his superficial brother with the person he respected and respected.

Meng Duo found a place to drink tea, which was a famous tea house in Jiangyang City. A Luo quickly invited someone over. The man called himself Xuan Shuo and came from the north of Jiangyang.

Meng Duo said, "Brother Xuan, please sit down."

Xuan Shuo sat down generously, and said, "Aren't you afraid that I'm a bad guy?" Meng Duo noticed that the bullet casings around Xuan Shuo's waist were put away, and smiled, "Brother Xuan?"

Xuan Shuo said no, Meng Duo said he felt the same way.

Zhong Qiyan was sitting on pins and needles, watching Meng Duo laughing and chatting with others, always feeling sorry for Master Lu, and tried to interrupt their conversation several times, but couldn't stop Meng Duo's enthusiasm.

"Brother Xuan is very well-informed, I don't know if you have seen this before." Meng Duo asked, since Xuan Shuo said that he traveled all over the world, collecting rare treasures from all over the way and reselling them to other wealthy businessmen, there is a pair of treasures that can identify treasures. Eyes, Meng Duo pretended not to know that he was trying to test himself, and took out the gun and put it on the table.

Xuan Shuo secretly delighted, thinking that Meng Duo took out modern things at will because no one knew him, and didn't even know that he had exposed his identity.

Xuan Shuo pretended to observe the gun, put his hand on the trigger, and aimed the gun at Meng Duo.

Meng Duo laughed, pressed Xuan Shuo's hand, and said meaningfully: "Mr. Xuan, this thing is dangerous, don't touch anyone."

Xuan Shuo is more certain of his guess, Meng Duo must be the same as him, not only from the future, but also has a portable space on his body.

Xuan Shuo said: "The shell is smooth and delicate, and the shape is unique and interesting. According to my son, this thing is still a weapon."

Meng Duo smiled: "You can't imagine the power." Xuan Shuo said: "I don't know if there is a chance to see it."

Meng Duo said: "There will be." After speaking, he tapped Zhong Qiyan who was in a daze with the handle of his fan, and said, "Idiot, let's go."

Xuan Shuo also stood up, "Is the young master coming to Jiangyang for fun?"

Meng Duo said yes, Xuan Shuo said that he often came to Jiangyang, if the young master didn't dislike him, he would take the two of them for a stroll in Jiangyang City, and thanked young master Meng for the tea.

Zhong Qiyan pulled Meng Duo's sleeve, and Meng Duo said: "We can only stay in Jiangyang for one day, and we will leave tomorrow."

Xuan Shuo said: "One day is enough to see the beauty of Jiangyang City."

He is so enthusiastic, Meng Duo will naturally not refuse, Zhong Qiyan's face is not very good, Meng Duo is afraid that Zhong Qiyan knows too much and will be exposed, so he will not explain to him, poor Mrs. Zhong watched Meng Duo run away with a stranger because of lust , Thinking of Mr. Lu who is in trouble, when he wants to replace the deer, he should hold back tears of sadness.

Xiangshui Bay, No. 15 after the heavy rain, the road was blocked by silt and rocks rushed out of the canyon, and four or five fishing villages at the foot of the mountain were destroyed. The debris of ships floated on the river surface, and the buried and powerless were clearly visible in the mud Soldiers and fishermen struggling to death.

Facing the sea, you can fish in the water, so you don’t have to worry about food for the time being, but there is less fresh water. There used to be a waterfall in the canyon for drinking. Unfortunately, the torrential rain caused a mountain torrent, which blocked the entrance of the waterfall, leaving only a narrow mouth with intermittent water. Fortunately, Few of them are left alive, and this little water is barely enough to drink, but this little luck is also the greatest misfortune.

Zhang Lijiang filled the water bladder and walked back to the camp. It was late autumn when he left Kyoto, and now it is early winter, and the seaside does not look bleak, but the birds flying in rows in the sky from time to time tell him that the winter wind is still coming.For three months, there were countless fights, big and small, and the side of the shore near the sea was stained crimson with blood, and sometimes corpses were pushed ashore with the waves of the sea.

"Deputy General Zhang." Someone greeted him, Zhang Lijiang nodded, opened a tent with a water bag and walked in.

The person inside stood with hands behind his back, black armor and cold fur, with his back turned to him, staring at the map on the wall.

Zhang Lijiang put the water bag on the table and said, "It's been ten days since the news got out. According to the schedule, they should have arrived in Jiangyang City."

Deer should not speak.

Zhang Lijiang continued: "The river course is still being cleared. If reinforcements arrive at the mouth of the bay and cooperate with us inside and outside, a road should be cleared soon."

Lu Shiying turned around and said, "The general leading the army is Lu Ke."

Zhang Lijiang said: "Even if Lu Ke is a villain, but now that the enemy is in front, he shouldn't—" Halfway through the sentence, he couldn't continue. Zhang Lijiang clenched his fists, veins appeared on the back of his hand, and he coaxed People's words can't be fooled by themselves.

Zhang Lijiang slammed his fist on the table, knelt down on one knee, and said, "I am not reconciled. I would rather die on the battlefield than be trapped here! Dachang has been fighting with the Yu people for several years, and we have been defeated one after another. It took only three months to recapture the six sand islands and break through the right wing of the Yu people. I believe that in time, we will be able to drive the Yu people back to their old den—”

Zhang Lijiang's eyes were filled with grief and indignation: "We are only a few days away, only a few ships away, and only a few soldiers away, and we will be able to win—"
