Chapter 2 Trapped

"Hey~~" As soon as Liu Jiao finished speaking, Liu Yu had already waved his hand and interrupted: "What did he mention about the old and broken things hundreds of years ago? Facing reality is the right thing. The little brother is good at it and has nowhere to go. I wonder if he intends to join the army?

I understand that joining the army is a humble career, and scholars disdain it. However, now the government is controlled by the Kuaiji King and his son. The father and son are mediocre and incompetent. They are nothing more than relying on the sudden death of the late emperor. The current lord is dull and stupid, so he can do everything. He is surrounded by flatterers and smoky people in the court. Where can the upright people live?

Only if you join the army or have the possibility of making achievements, if your little brother is interested, your fool is not talented, you are willing to recommend you to General Sun Wuzhong. General Sun is upright and with your talent, he will surely make a name for himself in the future. I don’t know what to do with your intentions?"

Liu Yu's words reached the point. In today's world, not to mention common people, even the destitute gentry did not have the chance to turn around. If it were ordinary people, they would probably be ecstatic. It is indeed a good choice to devote themselves to the Northern Prefecture Army.

However, Wei Feng was extremely regretful. If he had known that this person was Liu Yu, he would not save him no matter what he said. If he really defected to Sun Wuzhong, with Liu Yu's heroic nature, he would have used a series of means to make himself sincerely submit, and he might even marry his widowed sister to himself. The essence of the Northern Army is a close interest group composed of northern refugees. From Liu Laozhi to Liu Yu, generals at all levels are all locals in Jingkou. As an outsider, do you have any other choices besides working for Liu Yu?

Wei Feng understood the truth that the cunning rabbit died, the lackeys cooked, the birds were gone, and the good bows were hidden. What's more, the Liu Song Dynasty in history was in filthy and in chaos, the coup was never stopped after Liu Yu's death. The old ministers who followed him to conquer the world were all killed and destroyed, and no one had a good death!

It would be a day when we surrender to the Northern Prefecture Army! However, Wei Feng did not express his opinion for the time being, but instead asked: "I have something to ask Brother Liu, where is this?"

Liu Yu stretched out his finger and pointed: "This place is located near Huashan Mountain. It is Jingkou eighty miles northeast and Jiankang seventy miles west!"

Wei Feng nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Liu, when my father was alive, I heard that Jiankang was the most prosperous capital today, so I wanted to see it. If you have time in the future, come to Jingkou to find Brother Liu again!"

Both Liu Yu and his sister showed uncontrollable disappointment. Liu Jiao was still waiting for persuasion, but she was interrupted by Liu Yushi's wink.

Liu Yu followed suit and stroked his beard and sighed: "Since that's the case, my brother and sister are waiting for the big journey in Jingkou. However, I have a reminder that Jiankang is full of refugees now. Please be careful no matter how you do it."

Wei Feng stood up and bowed: "Thank you, Brother Liu! It's getting noon right now, and you and I will be able to leave here for a while, how about?"

Liu Yu and Liu Jiao also stood up and replied, "Little brother (Little Langjun) please take care of yourself!"

"Goodbye!" Wei Feng bowed and turned around and left.

Watching Wei Feng's figure gradually disappear into the bushes, Liu Jiao suddenly asked, "The Wei family's husband is a sensible person. My sister thought he would not be able to figure out his brother's intentions, but why did he not want to help you? Could it be that you think you have a low position?"

Liu Yu did not answer, but asked, "Giao Jiao, are you interested in Wei Feng? Tell me the truth!"

"This..." Liu Jiao blushed and said generously: "Brother, he really has a look of justice. He can't even hide this from you. Yes, although the husband of the Wei family is a refugee, he has sharp methods and good conversations. He will definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future. Our Liu family is just a declining gentry. Besides, the sister is a widowed wife and marrying Wei Lang is not considered as a humiliating brother."

Liu Yu thought for a moment and said lightly: "He once had murderous intentions towards me, do you have any response?"

"How is that possible?" Liu Jiao immediately exclaimed!

Liu Yu shook his head and said, "If I say I covet your beauty, I have already planned to marry you to him tonight. How could he be so impatient? And my brother and sister have never met him for a lifetime. Why did this murderous intent come? It is really puzzling!"

Liu Jiao couldn't help but frown and thought, and said uncertainly: "Maybe... maybe it was because the husband of the Wei family recognized the wrong person?"

"Haha~~" Liu Yu smiled without objection and said, "Giao Jiao, if Wei Feng came to find me, I would not care about him and would still marry you to him. However, Sima Daozi and his son were acting against each other, and the world was gradually in chaos. Now that the Jingzhou army's war situation is about to break out, I am worried that Wei Feng will have the fate to enter Jiankang and have no chance to come out!

Well, General Liu Laozhi has always admired your beauty. A while ago, he vaguely revealed to me through General Sun that he would like to take you as his side room. I will delay you for two years in the name of being a deceased husband. If you don’t get the news about Wei Feng within two years, you will only be wronged."

Liu Jiao's expression changed suddenly: "Liu Lao Zhihuo has the power of martial arts, but he is very aspiring and talented, and he is full of power but has no faith. The sister vaguely found out that Liu Lao Zhiming is the leader of the former general (Wang Gong), but in fact, he secretly colluded with Sima Daozi and wanted to harm him. If the matter fails, Liu Lao's body will die and destroy the clan. Even if the matter is successful, he must be blamed for the superiors. With the reputation of the master of Nu Shi, the sister's dirt body is not worth cherishing. However, since ancient times, she has not married the same surname, and is only afraid that she will be a concubine with Liu Lao, which will affect her brother!"

Liu Yu's face showed obvious struggle, and it took him a long time to sigh: "It will be said in two years. I have a premonition that if Wei Feng is safe and sound, he might be an enemy of me in the future. I will let him go once, and I will be kind and kind from now on! Of course, you are you, I am me, and you marry him next has nothing to do with this!"

As he was talking, Liu Yu smiled bitterly again, "Look where I said I'm going? I'm thirty-six this year, but I'm still a little Sima. This man, if you die, you might achieve nothing in your life. Haha~~ It's just that Brother Yu is worried about everything. Let's hurry up and try to rush back to Jingkou before nightfall!"

Liu Jiao looked at the direction where Wei Feng disappeared, and a trace of bitterness flashed in her beautiful eyes, then nodded and followed Liu Yu to the east.

A few hours passed in a blink of an eye. When Wei Feng arrived in Jiankang, it was already dark. Although the city gate was closed, Jiankang was surrounded by forty-mile-long outer fences, made of bamboo fences, and the height was about one meter. Therefore, he found a place where no one was there and easily flipped into it.

Jiankang is noisy at night, with barbecue shops and brothels everywhere, and the streets and shops are crowded with people. It is indeed the largest city in the world at that time.

But as Liu Yu said, the streets were full of refugees and beggars. Wei Feng walked all over the place and unknowingly, he had already arrived on the bank of the Huai River (Qinhuai River). In the late night of Jiankang in early autumn, there was a hint of coldness in the air. The shuttle boats and the sounds of singing and dancing from silk and bamboo, and even the faint sound of panting and moans all teased his heartstrings.

Wei Feng suddenly felt that it was meaningless to run to Jiankang for an afternoon. The grass and trees in this city had nothing to do with him. It was impossible to find opportunities in Jiankang. Who would take a refugee to heart?

He shook his head secretly, and was about to find a place to make do with the leeward for a night, "Gugu~~" Wei Feng's stomach screamed, and the cake he shared with the Liu brothers and sisters had already been digested, which made him realize that it was time to find some food. He couldn't help but look around and prepare a gentleman on the beam in a secluded place, but a scent of meat floated in the river!

Wei Feng swallowed suddenly and looked at the fragrance. A pleasure boat was slowly flowing down the river ten feet away. In his impression, there were brothel women in the pleasure boat. Unless the powerful climbed, the guards were very relaxed, and the ship passing by was quieter, unlike a kind-hearted guest who came into the curtain.

So Wei Feng did not hesitate and slowly descended into the water, swimming towards the pleasure boat silently.

Soon, Wei Feng put his hand on the side of the boat and listened carefully. In the main cabin with faint lights, a faint laughter from a woman was heard, which made him feel a little itchy. He wanted to understand the details of the life of the brothel women in the Jin Dynasty, but he immediately forced this thought down.

The sky is big and the earth is big, and the belly is the biggest, so filling your stomach is the right thing!

Wei Feng swam along the fragrance to the vicinity near the rear cabin, carefully poked out half of his body and observed for a short while. After confirming that there was no one around, he stopped hesitating and quickly climbed onto the boat, pushed open the cabin door and flashed into it!

This is a small dining hall, with charcoal fire in the corner of the cabin simmering a clay pot, and the fragrance floats out from here. Wei Feng knew that he was going to be fast, so he quickly lifted the lid. The slightly rolled soup was full of meat pieces and rolling up and down. From the memory of the little beggar, he learned that this was a delicious dish called Wuwei Jiao that he had heard of for a long time but had never tasted it personally. It was cooked with cows, sheep, deer, deer, and pork, and it was extremely delicious.

Wei Feng didn't care about the heat, so he picked up a piece and stuffed it into his mouth!

Well! Wuwei Zhu, it is indeed well-deserved!

After a while of random chewing, Wei Feng opened his hands left and right. Soon, the soup in the clay pot had already gone down a little!

The delicious food made Wei Feng forget the danger for the time being. His eyes turned to a small clay pot on several tables. He reached out and lifted the lid. This was a steaming water liquor soup! He didn't think about it, and he was about to lift his head and pour it down. At this moment, with a "creak!", the warehouse door was suddenly pushed open!

"Ah!" A woman, about fourteen or fifteen, screamed with panic on her face and could pierce her eardrums!

Wei Feng was also scared and shivered, and kept calling: "Don't yell, don't yell, I'll leave right away!"

But the woman ignored him at all and continued to scream: "Come on, come on, come on, there are thieves on the boat!"

Wei Feng quickly put down the clay pot and ran out. As long as he left this door, he could jump into the river and escape without a trace while he was running away. Although he was not a good person in his previous life, he would not make things difficult for a girl.

Just as he pulled the woman away, he was about to go out, when a cold light slashed at him, forcing him to retreat back into the cabin!
