If you ask what happiness feels like, the answer may be different, but if you ask, what is sudden happiness......

Well, the answer must be the same.

Happiness came so suddenly, making Zhou Bo's calm heart become active again, and all the melancholy was swept away. At this time, if he hadn't resisted his excitement, I'm afraid he would have already roared. Even so, he could clearly feel that the blood in his whole body was jubilant......

Four years of loneliness and loneliness, four years of killing and fighting, four years of longing and worrying. Tomorrow, tomorrow will be over, I will be free, free, and I will be able to live with my father and them from now on...... Zhou Bo shouted desperately in his heart.

……

After a while, Zhou Bo's mood stabilized, and he said to Mo Zheng: "Although I know that you have been using me, I still have to thank you today, at least you didn't feel sorry for me." Thank you!" he said, arching his hand.

Mo Zheng was stunned for a moment, wanting to say something, but he still choked up when the words came to his mouth, and finally let out a long sigh and said, "What you said is right, I am using you." But as the commander of the first army, in extraordinary times, he naturally does extraordinary things, so I don't think I'm wrong, it's just that the two of us have different positions.

Maybe a free and easy life is where you belong, and although I regret that I didn't leave you behind, I am not sad, because people like you really shouldn't get involved in right and wrong. It's just that...... Alas, go down and prepare, and tomorrow I will go and cook for you. ”

Zhou Bo was very strange in his heart, as if Mo Zheng had a lot to say to him. However, his mind has long been flying far away now, so he naturally didn't take it to heart.

……

On the way back to the camp, Zhou Bo's heart was unprecedentedly relaxed, and the thought of the killing that would be far away from the battlefield tomorrow was suddenly extremely happy.

At night, a small hill outside the sand city. Zhou Bo held the small stone around his neck with his left hand, and lay quietly on the sand with his head resting on his right hand. Looking at the endless starry sky overhead, bright and flickering, sprinkling a little starlight, it makes people feel relaxed and happy.

"Dad, I'm leaving here tomorrow, four years have finally passed. I've learned a lot here, and I've become stronger, and I'm sure I'll be able to protect you in the future......"

In the commander's camp, Ning Yuanqi and Mo Zheng sat opposite each other.

"Did the boss really decide to let him go?" Ning Yuanqi smiled.

Mo Zheng said: "Yes, people like him can't be controlled by others. As far as I know, if it weren't for his relatives, it would not be difficult for him to leave with his ability, and it was because he was afraid of endangering his relatives that he willingly stayed. It's just that...... Alas!"

Ning Yuanqi said: "The boss let him go, so he is not afraid of offending King Song?"

Mo Zheng sneered: "Sooner or later, he and I will face each other, so what if I offend! And I also act according to the regulations, what can he do with me?"

Ning Yuanqi shook his head and said, "King Song did a stupid thing, it seems that he will be in trouble in the future." ”

Mo Zheng said with a smile: "This is also the reason why I let the 'war madness' leave easily. The power of the King of Song is too great for me to shake at all, and now I can only hide in the border wilderness and wait until the time is ripe to dominate this place. And after he knew about that incident, he would definitely go to King Song for trouble, so we could have more time to prepare. ”

"By the way, what's the situation in Kyoto now?"

……

……

Outside Shacheng Pass, Zhou Bo was dressed in white at this time, but it was not a prison uniform, but Mo Zheng specially asked someone to make it for him.

Mo Zheng said: "'War Maniac'...... No, Zhou Bo, you will be free from today, although you cannot keep you, but the door of our army will always be open for you. "Good things always have to say. Then he asked someone to bring a horse, and said with a smile: "This is your leg strength, and there is a coil." ”

Zhou Bo didn't speak, slowly walked to a clearing, and pulled out the saber on his back.

Everyone was at a loss, not understanding what he was going to do!

I saw Zhou Bo gently close his eyes, as if he was feeling something......

Suddenly, he moved, and the knife in his hand was waving like a shadow, which was the "Seven Styles of Sword Fighting"......

"No return" - there is no return, there is no return, there is no return, and the knife does not return......

"Wanjun" - thunder, only one force, such as Mount Tai pressing the top......

"Random attack" - like a thousand birds flying, countless knife shadows......

"Wild dance" - like an ambush on all sides, endless......

"Angry war" - kiss the sky angrily and fight fiercely......

"Life and death" - murderous spirit, life and death......

"Reincarnation" - holding the knife in the hand, chopping the reincarnation......

The whole clearing was full of sand and rocks, and the fierce breath made the horses can't help but neigh.

……

After practicing all the knife postures, Zhou Bo gathered all his body's vitality on the blade of the knife and swung it towards the city wall......

"Crack!" As he shouted, the blade of the knife flashed white, leaving only a hideous crack on the city wall.

Quiet! Everyone was shocked again!

Compared with the knife three years ago, this knife now seems to touch the soul in their hearts, and they will never forget it!

Zhou Bo put the knife back into its sheath, didn't say anything, jumped directly on the horse and stepped on the dust, and disappeared into the shouts of the soldiers......

The fifteenth year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty.

As the rebellion of the people in various places became more and more intense, the war finally broke out, the rivers and lakes were surging, and the Ming Dynasty finally ushered in his troubled times.

……

Longwei Dart Game is the most famous dart game in Taiyuan City, and it is also one of the three major dart games on the rivers and lakes. Although the rivers and lakes and the imperial court have always been two systems, daring to name Longwei shows that this dart game is extraordinary.

At this moment, the hall of the dart game was full of people, but no one spoke, and the anger was a little depressed. These more than 30 people are the dart masters of the Longwei Dart Bureau, because there is something important, so all the people who did not dart were called.

There are three people sitting in the hall, and the one on the left is the second master of the dart game, 6 Xun, fifty-three years old this year, dressed as a scholar, holding a feather fan, very civil. The one on the right is Xie Feng, the big boss of the dart game, in his thirties, with a dignified face. And the mighty old man sitting in the middle is Xie Feng's father, Xie Zhenhai, the leading boss of the Longwei Dart Bureau.

Xie Zhenhai is sixty-two years old this year, with a gray head and thick and powerful hands, and he is a first-class master in the summit period. debuted at the age of seventeen, relying on the top-grade internal martial arts "Hao Ting Decision" and "Shenmen Fist" in the rivers and lakes. At the age of twenty-four, he founded Longwei Dart Bureau, and now he has been in the rivers and lakes for more than 40 years.

In the rivers and lakes, the realm of martial arts is divided into: qi induction period, qi gathering period, qi training period, qi transformation period, Zhoutian period, gathering top period, and congenital period. Each stage is divided into introductory, Hinayana and Mahayana. But it's not that the higher the realm, the more powerful the martial arts, it's just that the internal cultivation is deeper.

For example, if a person's martial arts realm has reached the peak of the Mahayana period, but he can only use low-grade martial arts moves, such a person can only be regarded as second-rate. If you meet a person who is in the Zhou Tian period and will be able to taste martial arts, you will only be beaten. Of course, sometimes the gap is too big, and no matter how powerful the moves are, they can't make up for the gap of low internal cultivation.

……

In the hall, Xie Zhenhai's loud voice said slowly: "Gathering all the brothers here today is an important matter to discuss with you. I'm sure you've heard that two days ago, our dart bureau received a deal and escorted a truckload of heavy goods to Beacon City. ”

The words fell, and everyone below whispered to discuss.

After a while, when everyone was quiet, Xie Zhenhai said: "Bet this dart, and you will pass through the Qilian Mountains in the north on the way." As we all know, bandits in this mountain range are rampant, and all of them are very powerful, and the caravans that come and go are basically sparing. ”

"Old man, why don't we go the other way. One of the dart masters suggested.

Xie Zhenhai shook his head and said, "We only have ten days, otherwise we will ......" Thinking of the warning of the man in black, he felt helpless for a while.

Another dart master stood up and said, "Don't worry, old man, we will deliver things even if we are broken." ”

"That's right, we'll definitely get it delivered. Everyone followed suit.

Xie Zhenhai sighed: "It has been almost forty years since the establishment of Longwei Dart Bureau. The reason why we are here today is because everyone works together. But this dart is too dangerous......"

"Dad, it's better to let the child personally escort this dart goods!" Xie Feng on the side interrupted.

"Nonsense!" Xie Zhenhai shouted, and the hall suddenly fell silent.

"You're the master of the game, this ......

I still want you to preside over the overall situation, how can you risk your life. ”

Xie Feng said unconvinced: "Do you want me to be a shrinking turtle here?!"

"You...... Hey!" Xie Zhenhai sighed, turned his head to 6 and said, "I don't know what the second brother thinks?"

6 Xun shook the feather fan and said: "This matter is really difficult to do, on the one hand, there is the threat of huge forces, on the other hand, there are unpredictable dangers, the most important thing is that we can't smash our own signboards, otherwise how to walk the rivers and lakes in the future." Only when our two old bones go out in person can we have any hope of success!"

"No!" Xie Feng hurriedly said: "How can you let my father and second uncle be in danger, let's go." ”

6 Xundao: "Your father is right, you have to stay to preside over the dart game, and you have to take care of your daughter-in-law and children, how can you leave." And with my and your father's martial arts, you can protect yourself even if you encounter any danger. You can rest assured, we have been roaming the rivers and lakes for decades, and we have not experienced any storms, maybe those bandits will give me two faces and let us go directly. ”

"But ......" Xie Feng was still about to speak, but was interrupted.

Xie Zhenhai cleared his throat and said loudly: "This dart will be escorted by me and the second master, you will inform you, all the people in the family among the brothers will stay, and the rest will gather outside tomorrow." ”

"Yes!" ......

After everyone left, Xie Feng said, "Dad, what kind of dart are we betting on this time, do we have to take it?"

Xie Zhenhai said with a serious face: "The dart that walked this time is a weapon, the other party's power is very large, and we can't refuse, so we can't afford to miss it this time, otherwise we will be in trouble." If we really have any accidents, you must take good care of them. ”

Xie Feng's body shook and said, "Dad, you ......"

Xie Zhenhai looked kind and said with a smile: "Xiaofeng, I am very pleased to see you mature step by step over the years. But you are still a little short of walking the rivers and lakes, your heart is always too soft, how can you convince the public......

At this time, Xie Feng was like a child listening to teachings, humbly lowering his head.

……

Following.

Long Wei Dart was outside, and Xie Zhenhai and others were ready to wait.

Suddenly, Xie Zhenhai asked, "Why didn't Qing'er come over?" ”

Mrs. Xie said angrily: "This child is really, he can't see off his grandfather, and he doesn't know where Ye went?"

Xie Zhenhai said: "Forget it, forget it, the child is a little playful." ”

Seeing that her father-in-law was so maintained, Mrs. Xie didn't say anything, but sighed slightly.

On the side, 6 Xun said to Xie Feng: "Xiaofeng, don't worry, your father and I will be fine." ”

……

"Out!" After counting the number of people, Xie Zhenhai led a team of more than 1,000 people to the outside of Beicheng......

Beacon City, located at the junction of the northern Tatars and the Jurchen tribes. Due to the different beliefs of the two ethnic groups, there has always been a grudge, which has led to constant wars here, but compared to the war in the border wilderness, it is like a small fight between children.

Although the Beacon City is relatively barren, it is a north-south transportation artery, and the north-south traffic naturally forms a trading place. The north is rich in animal husbandry, and many common game skins, minerals and gems are really strange goods to the southerners, and the common things such as cloth, silk, clay pots and bowls in the south are also extremely precious in the eyes of the northerners. Therefore, caravans often braved the flames of war to transport these rare goods back, just to make a huge profit that the world was jealous of.

Because of this, there are countless robbers and bandits in the vicinity, all of whom want to sit back and enjoy their success and get a piece of the pie, among which the bandits in the Qilian Mountains are the most rampant.

The Qilian Mountains are the main trade route between the north and the south, so there are many caravans in the past, so that more and more bandits gather here, and it gradually becomes the climate. They made a living by robbing passing caravans, and many caravans chose to take a detour rather than spend more time and manpower, and had to seek refuge from the masters......

Qilian cottage is located in the depths of the Qilian Mountains, the terrain is dangerous, the population is large, there are two or three thousand people, the imperial court has sent troops to encircle and suppress many times, but nothing has been found......

At this time, in the cottage hall, the three owners of Qilian Village were sitting high, and on both sides were the leaders of the twelve mountains of the Qilian Mountains.

In the center, a bandit half-knelt on the ground and said humbly: "Tell the three village owners, according to the spy report, a team of darts will pass by here at noon tomorrow, and all the goods they ship are weapons......

"Wow!" there was an uproar on all sides.

"What!?" A village owner on the left side of the lobby exclaimed: "Is it really a military weapon?" This person is in his thirties, his face is extremely ugly, his body is shriveled, and his hands are black, it is Xiao Ming, the second owner of Qilian Cottage.

"Dick, don't make a fuss like a dirt bun. ”

It was Wu Zhong, the owner of Qilian Cottage, who made his debut at the age of 20 and traveled the rivers and lakes for more than 20 years.

Wu Zhong said: "Little third son, you continue." ”

Xiao Sanzi hurriedly said: "How dare the little one deceive the three village masters, it is indeed a weapon, but... Just ......"

Wu Zhong frowned and said, "Just what?"

"yes, what's it? Damn! Say it quickly, don't grind, make Lao Tzu unhappy, be careful that Lao Tzu slaps you to death. Xiao Ming, the owner of the second village, said in a hurry.

Hearing the words of the second village master, the little third son suddenly trembled with fright. Everyone knows that the owner of Erzhai has a great temper, and he wants to shoot people at every turn, he has a pair of poisonous palms, how can these little shrimps resist. So he immediately said: "The second village master is angry, and the little one is ...... This time the dart is the Longwei Dart Bureau in Taiyuan, with a total of more than 1,000 people and a huge team, and the person who escorted the dart is Xie Zhenhai, the old man of the Longwei Dart Bureau. ”
