"Rogue, simply a scoundrel," Jin Zhuyu said, rolling his eyes at Zhang Xuli: "Wait, isn't it Sui Di, I will accompany you, but it's by the river, can you swim?"
Hearing Jin Zhuyu's agreement, Zhang Xuli twisted his body happily.
"Yeah, but it doesn't matter whether I know how to swim. With my round body, I can only float on the water."
In the afternoon, there are very few people in the pub, and it only gets crowded during lunch and evening meal times.
Zhang Xuli played in the tavern all afternoon. Seeing that it was almost time, he took Jin Zhuyu out of the tavern and headed towards Sui Di.
Sui Embankment is an embankment built by Tuoba Xiangchang along a wetland on the outskirts of Sesha City.
All kinds of flowers and plants randomly planted on the embankment grow wantonly. Two rows of green willows extend along the embankment. The branches dance with the wind and intertwine with each other. A randomly paved bluestone road flows from the green under the interlaced willow branches. Planted flowers pass through it, forming a quiet path under the willows.
Since the embankment was built in the Sui Dynasty, it has attracted a large number of city residents to visit.
It was dinner time, and there were not many tourists. Zhang Xuli and Jin Zhuyu strolled on the stone road under two rows of green willows, looking at the wetland in the gray night.
"How's it going? Is this place nice?" Zhang Xuli asked proudly.
Jin Zhuyu made a "cut" sound: "What's so surprising? This Sui Di doesn't belong to your family?"
"Why do I need such a big Sui embankment? Besides, we are constantly fighting, and I might die on the battlefield one day."
Speaking of this, Jin Zhuyu suddenly stopped and looked at Zhang Xuli blankly.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Xuli also stopped and turned sideways and asked.
He never thought that Zhang Xuli would die in battle. After Jin Zhuyu heard this, he didn't know what to say.
"Looking at the happy look on your face, it's not your turn."
"Hehehe, my wife told me the same thing."
After saying a serious word, Jin Zhuyu began to show his true colors again. Jin Zhuyu glanced at Zhang Xuli and turned his face away.
"By the way, marry me when you want. If you don't, I will marry you by force."
"How dare you." Jin Zhuyu stared at Zhang Xuli.
"Then just hurry up and marry me." Zhang Xuli looked shameless.
Originally, she had no intention of remarrying, but she was always pestered by Zhang Xuli. As time went by, Jin Zhuyu gradually got used to the feeling of having Zhang Xuli by her side.
"I can marry you, but you have to promise not to die in battle."
Zhang Xuli was not ready yet. He didn't expect Jin Zhuyu to agree so quickly. He jumped up happily: "Haha, that's great. I have another wife. It's great."
"Oops, there's someone robbing in front of you."
Before Zhang Xuli was overjoyed, several people in front of him ran over in a panic, looking nervous and shouting.
Zhang Xuli was stunned: "Someone is robbing, my dear wife, let's go back first."
Jin Zhuyu was panicked when he heard the robbery was going on in front of him. When he heard that Zhang Xuli was about to run back, he became angry instantly.
"I'm not married anymore, but I still have the nerve to say that I am the flag leader."
Zhang Xuli looked aggrieved, "It's not you who made me unable to die on the battlefield. Robbery is dangerous. If I accidentally hang up the ball, I will suffer a big loss. I haven't married a second wife yet. I'd better go home and resign immediately." Officer, from now on we will eat melon seeds and have children."
"Who will have a child with you?" Jin Zhuyu looked at Zhang Xuli with contempt: "You have decided on the title of being a freeloader."
"Hey, take out the money."
Zhang Xuli and Jin Zhuyu were chatting, and there were more than a dozen people in front of them, holding various weapons and shaking them in front of their chests.
Zhang Xuli saw the leader pointing a knife at him with a arrogant look, and asked: "Where are they from? When did Sesha City become so unstable?"
"Are you not a local either?" asked a robber next to him.
The bandit leader turned around and glared at the robber, so frightened that the robber immediately retracted his head.
"So you are not from Sesha City," Zhang Xuli said after looking at it: "You should be from Miaoka City. Judging from your posture and expression when holding weapons, it should be your first time to rob."
Seeing that Zhang Xu was as firm as a mountain, the bandit leader became even more nervous and asked tremblingly: "You, how do you know?"
"Because I've always robbed others, and I've never been robbed by others."
The bandit leader's heart sank, feeling that he had encountered a tough opponent. He mustered up his courage and shouted loudly: "Don't be afraid of him, let's go together." After saying that, he raised his knife and slashed at Zhang Xuli.
Zhang Xuli turned to one side to avoid the falling sword, grabbed the bandit leader's wrist with his left hand, and kicked the bandit leader away with his right foot.
The moment he flew up, Zhang Xuli exerted force with his left hand, and the bandit leader's weapon fell to the ground, and his body flew straight out, hitting the robber behind him.
The other robbers all stopped and stared at Zhang Xuli in panic as they were knocked away instantly.
The bandit leader stood up with the help of the robber next to him and looked at Zhang Xuli in panic.
"who are you?"
"Hehehehe," Zhang Xuli clapped his hands and relaxed his muscles: "Zhang Xuli, the number one bastard in Sesha City, is a bastard."
"Zhang Xuli." The bandit leader was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. He opened his mouth for a long time before shouting: "Run." He turned around and ran back.
A group of soldiers ran over from the front and quickly subdued the robbers. When Zhou Tao saw Zhang Xuli, he immediately stepped forward and shouted: "Flag Chief."
"What's going on?" Seeing Zhou Tao coming, Zhang Xuli asked seriously, "Why did the robbers come here?"
Zhou Tao said: "Captain, these are the villagers of Miaoka City. I also captured a wave of them in front of them."
"Then why are you running wild on our territory and not looking in the mirror?" Zhang Xuli shouted angrily.
"They escaped because of the war. Now in Miaoka City and several towns under its jurisdiction, many villagers' houses have been destroyed, many people have been massacred, bandits and refugees are everywhere, and many villagers who have no food to eat have also formed Robbers, stealing things everywhere.”
After listening, Zhang Xuli called the bandit leader over and asked, "Why did you come to our Sesha City to rob?"
When the bandit leader was caught, he was very panicked: "Can you not kill us?"
"Okay, answer the question quickly."
The bandit leader continued with wet eyes: "We don't want to rob, but we just can't survive. The village was destroyed. We have no food, we can't steal other people's things, and we can't defeat the bandits, so we came to you." , I want to grab something, but I didn’t expect there is such a strong army outside your city.”
"Nonsense, our Sesha City is not comparable to your Mika City."
After Zhang Xu ordered Zhou Tao to take the robbers into custody, he then said: "It seems that more troops must be added to the border, otherwise the surrounding towns will be in danger."
Zhou Tao said: "Flag Commander, there is no need to increase the number of troops. We just need to strictly interrogate passers-by at all the main entrances and exits to prevent them from sneaking in."
