The expressions of the three people who had just relaxed tightened again. Lao Cui, the most powerful man, had obviously lost his fighting power.
The three of them could not handle a scum like Tang Ping and a little girl who looked a little malnourished, let alone a few Turkic soldiers.
"Don't... don't be afraid! My security door is made of steel... steel, so it's not that easy to break!"
Tang Ping held the little girl's hand and said calmly.
But he still felt very guilty. If this was really the Tang Dynasty, and there were Turkic soldiers entering the city, then if he brought some kind of battering ram over, his anti-theft rolling shutter door wouldn't be able to stop it.
"Wait!" Lao Cui made a silent gesture, listened carefully and said with a smile on his face: "They are speaking in Mandarin, they should not be Turkic barbarians!"
Tang Ping also heard it. What was said outside did not sound like the jabbering of the Turkic soldiers just now.
He bravely came to the door and asked, "Who is outside?"
"We are soldiers from the Chang'an Prefecture of the Tang Dynasty. Just now, some people said that they saw one of our brothers being rescued by you!" The soldiers who spoke outside were quite polite, because this is their jurisdiction, but there was no store door last night. It was considered a night. appeared in time.
Moreover, this was the first time he had seen such a stainless steel gate, so he was even more careful when speaking. If he hadn't been worried about his brother Lao Cui, he would not have stepped forward so rashly.
"Du Laosan!" Lao Cui inside also heard the voice outside the door: "You turtle is not dead!"
As he spoke, he nodded excitedly to Tang Ping and said, "He's my brother."
Tang Ping felt slightly relieved and pressed the switch of the rolling shutter door.
Du Laosan was also happy when he heard Lao Cui's voice. Before he could speak, he heard a creaking sound. Then the stainless steel door in front of him slowly rose, which shocked him. Several other soldiers around him also They all drew their swords in their hands and looked at the door warily!
So when the rolling shutter door opened, Tang Ping saw five or six military men pointing knives at him.
"Third brother, don't be presumptuous!" Lao Cui shouted excitedly. Although the young man named Tang Ping looked weak and a bit timid, everything he brought out was so unbelievable that he even thought that Tang Ping was It was not an immortal, but it was related to an immortal. He was afraid that his brother would offend Tang Ping, so he hurriedly shouted out.
At this time, Du Laosan also saw Lao Cui who was half leaning against the wall. He put away the knife, then said to Tang Ping that he was offended and hurried over.
"How are you? Lao Cui, are you okay?"
"Don't worry, none of you are dead. How can I and Lao Cui go down first?" As he said this, Lao Cui looked outside and said, "Have the Turks retreated?"
"Well, this morning, the Turks who were ambushing in the city raided the city gate and wanted to enlarge their army into the city. It happened that General Qin was nearby and recaptured the city gate. These Turkic soldiers rushed in at that time. Without backup, they could only They were able to roam around the city, burning and killing them, but now they have basically been cleaned up."
Lao Cui and the others were not city defense troops, but soldiers from the Tang Dynasty. They were recruited temporarily for this Turkic attack on the city. They were mainly responsible for public security in the city. The Turkic soldiers who suddenly rushed in this morning shocked them, thinking that the city had been broken.
At that time, the Turkic soldiers were obviously more numerous than them, so they had to disperse and flee, preparing to use the familiar terrain to deal with the enemy.
Lao Cui, who was fighting and retreating, discovered the little girl Xiao Luo on the way, and then met Tang Ping.
While a few people were talking, another group of people rode over from a distance.
Du Laosan glanced at it and patted his forehead: "I just saw the steel gate that suddenly appeared. I didn't know the situation, so I reported it to General Li. I think it's General Li and the others who are here now."
They were just ordinary soldiers, so there was nothing wrong with reporting such strange things.
Lao Cui said to Tang Ping: "Little brother Tang, please relax, General Li is the most easy-going and unassuming person."
Soon a handsome middle-aged general with a mustache rode up to him. Du Laosan stepped forward and saluted with clasped fists, and briefly told him everything he knew about the situation.
"The sudden appearance of a steel gate? A young man in strange clothes? A shop he has never seen before?" General Li looked intently in the direction of Tang Ping. He was slightly confused at first, and then suddenly his whole body was slightly shaken, and he turned over and dismounted and came to Tang Ping.
Being stared at by the person in front of him, Tang Ping felt his spine tingle. Although he didn't know who the General Li was in front of him, the aura of that person actually made him feel like he was fighting.
He had seen such a look before. It was a veteran he met when he visited the Anti-Japanese Museum. Although his body was already old, the sharp eyes of the veteran at that time were similar to the General Li in front of him.
Lao Cui also noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere in front of him. He struggled to get up, but his wound was affected and he let out a muffled groan.
"Old Cui, can you die?" General Li turned to ask Lao Cui, and Tang Ping let out a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, General Li. Even if we go to the battlefield now, Lao Cui can take away two or three thieves."
General Li nodded slightly and looked at Tang Pingping again. The sharp look in his eyes was no longer there. He gave the impression that he was just a handsome middle-aged man.
"What's your last name, little brother?"
"My surname is Tang."
"Your surname is Tang?" General Li stood in this position and looked at Tang Ping's convenience store again. Just now Du Laosan said that the things in it were all strange things he had never seen before, so he thought it was because he, a rough guy, had never seen the world. , looking at it now, it seems that I have never seen the world, and I basically don’t recognize anything in it.
"General, is this really Chang'an?" Tang Ping asked, imitating the ancients.
I have been holding these words in my heart for a long time. I was busy saving Lao Cui's life and didn't have time to ask in detail.
"Of course it is Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty!" General Li said proudly: "Where did little brother Tang come from? And why don't you know where you are?"
"Datang! Chang'an!" Tang Ping wailed in his heart. He already knew that this was not filming a variety show, but how could this be Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty? How could it be Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty?
"Brother Tang, Brother Tang?" Lao Cui shouted anxiously from the side. You want to know what the situation is in Chang'an now? For someone like Tang Ping who appeared in Chang'an with unknown identity, General Li would probably ask someone to capture him directly.
So he also hoped that Tang Ping could explain his origin clearly.
Tang Ping sighed slightly. If this is really the Tang Dynasty, if this is really Chang'an, then the first thing he has to think about is how to live.
"I'm not from here, I'm from there!" Tang Ping said, pointing to the sky above his head.
