The Xu family is full of soldiers, and there are more swords and guns than the guards of the city lord's mansion.

Xu Cong, who was a martial artist, served as the chief of the civil bandit suppression post in Jiangling County, and although his merits were shallow, the Qin Dynasty government showed his fearlessness, and Xu Cong was exempted from business tax for three years. Later, Xu Cong gained a foothold in Jiaozhi City, opened a martial arts hall to collect money from disciples, and made a lot of money by walking darts and delivering goods.

It wasn't until Xu Cong established the mansion to support the family that the other major families reacted that this self-made martial artist actually had the status to sit with them, and they hated that they didn't suppress it much at the beginning, but they could only make some smiles on their faces.

Under the noses of several major forces, a path was forged out, Xu Cong's forbearance and tenacity are unquestionable, and after the establishment of the mansion, the Xu family Ding rampant bullying and dominating the market, seems to be deliberately exposing the villain's appearance, so that outsiders mislead the Xu family is not enough, and secretly vassal to the Seven Princes Qiuyuan, Xu Cong's decision can be seen to be extremely correct.

Xu Fanshi, a gentleman, has done a lot of bullying men and women, and it is not uncommon for him to kill people for fun, his flying and domineering is not genetic, it was deliberately cultivated by Xu Cong.

Xu Fanshi was young, Xu Cong waved the whip on him, asked him what to do, what not to do, if he was right, he beat him with a whip, and if he was wrong, he was beaten with three whips, Xu Cong called this kind of education "right and wrong in the whip, whip outside the autumn", and boasted: "If you want to grow into a big family, you can't stand thousands of whips, and you can't be such an ambitious person." ”

But Xu Cong didn't beat him for his son's ambition, he said: "You can't be a talented person in your life, those nobles are looking at me, so you can only be a second ancestor who is a loser." I don't have any plans to earn so much family business, it was originally left for you to squander, you can do whatever you want, if you really don't want to be a young master, my Xu family can't tolerate you. ”

Since more than 20 years, Xu Fanshi's thoughts and have gradually taken shape, and in his spare time, he took his subordinates to have fun in the streets, and took other noble sons of other noble families in Jiaozhi City to win the Oiran on the green building.

It is rumored that Xu Fanshi took a big boat to play, robbed the woman on the street, and killed seven or eight passers-by who threatened to sue the official, and then took the woman's innocence, and kicked the woman off the river in a crying sound.

Yang Tafeng blamed, but Xu Cong just smiled and said It's okay, the city lord's guards are now tempting, and after dozens of moves, the guards were seriously injured and retreated, Xu Cong still said that it was okay with the residual blood at the corner of his mouth, and left after leaving more than 100,000 taels of silver.

Even if he knew that Xu Cong would encroach on his power and make the people of Jiaozhi City chaotic, he could only choose to let go again and again, which was the most basic balance he could maintain in the city.

This is just one of the examples, and the number of more outsiders is not enough, and the government can't count them. The world only passed on Xu Fan Shifu for 20 years, and interpreted the second ancestor's dominance to the extreme, and there was an old sage who said that the world can be called Fan Shi, and all the people thought it was true, which shows the depth of the people's evil.

Xu Cong didn't think so, could the person who drown with spit be a human being? The insults from outsiders and the criticism from the scholar's pen were just because they were afraid, and Xu Jiashu's big move was naturally inevitable for these people's eyes.

He Xu Cong is young and fashionable, and he is not afraid of public opinion, and now he has nearly a thousand soldiers, is he afraid of the groans of these idlers? Disgust in the open is better than a sword in the dark, Xu Cong is not afraid of insults, he can kill a person when he hears a sentence, but if there is a mouse hiding in the dark, he is extremely jealous in his heart.

Fortunately, although Xu Fanshi is a fool, he is not a stupid person, he knows when he sees a good time, he will accept it, he knows what not to provoke, and he can weave a straw mat when he breaks into trouble, but he is smart enough to present the straw mat to the right person, which is why Xu Cong has always been willing to protect his son.

On the night when the blood red agate was lost, Xu Fanshi, who had never given a gift to anyone, met with the officials sent by the Seventh Prince Qiuyuan, clasped his hands above his head, his knees touched the ground without getting dust, and the bow was extremely solemn. Anyone who can be polite can naturally make the adults who control the chess game relax often, and there are many useless people who greet them, and Xu Cong, who only has eight positions, is the most feared.

Xu Cong was at the mouth of Qihe Lane, followed by five hundred elite armor soldiers, who directly obeyed Xu Cong's orders, and were stronger than any army in Jiaozhi City. is also one of the three major families in Jiaozhi City, but the foundation of the Liu family is far inferior to the Xu family.

Xu Cong said, "Is Fan Shi here, why don't you come to see me?"

A cavalryman replied, "Childe is in that small shop, dragging those two people to gamble, and I guess he hasn't noticed us yet." ”

"Bang!" I only heard a loud noise, and the wall of the small shop collapsed suddenly, and an embarrassed shadow crawled out of the dust, with a ruthless face, and said with a smile on his face, "What a martial arts master, our two seventh-rank and three sixth-rank martial artists are not opponents at all, but you can't escape from my hands now." ”

Jiang Ming took Shen Yi's hand, carrying the burden in front of him, holding the Fang Yuan long halberd with blood hanging from the tip of the halberd in his hand, walked out of the main entrance of the small shop, glanced at the five hundred armor soldiers displayed on the street with an indifferent face, took a deep breath, and said, "You are really a representative of the gentleman, but today's move makes me amazed, even the original landlord Zhong is not as good as the eleventh and twelfth of your dangerous face!"

Xu Fanshi sat on the ground and said with a smile, "Is this a compliment?

Wouldn't it be nice to be casual? At least for now, Ben Gongzi is going to drink with your cranial blood. ”

"Stubborn!"

Jiang Ming stabbed out with a halberd, but was hit by a short sword flying over, Xu Cong looked at Jiang Ming coldly, and said, "Fan Shi, come back, you Lao Tzu is here! Let me clean up this bandit in Wohua Mountain!"

Jiang Ming still underestimated Xu Cong's strength, Xu Fanshi's father was indeed not an ordinary person, just by throwing an ordinary short sword, he could offset most of the strength of the Fang Yuan halberd, and he could still do it to this extent by hitting him from afar, which showed that it invaded the essence of martial arts deeply, and at the same time left Jiang Ming with a deep threat.

Xu Fanshi stood up, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and slowly walked towards the five hundred armor soldiers, Jiang Ming did not stop him, if Xu Cong protected him, Jiang Ming would not be able to kill him.

"I originally wanted to avenge the bullying for Miss Die, but I was a little unwilling, Xu Cong really indulged you, and brought so many armor soldiers to deal with me. Jiang Ming said compassionately.

Xu Fanshi smiled: "Isn't this a woman who can afford you? Of course, it is also a woman who can afford you, and the woman who plays the piano in the Red Sleeve Building is also your friend? ”

Jiang Ming said, "If you have a chance, you will die!"

Xu Fan Shidao: "Is this angry? It's okay, the people who said this are dead, and you will too." ”

Xu Fanshi walked over, and the armor silently waited for the leader to give orders, while Xu Cong just looked coldly, completely unprepared to make a move.

Jiang Ming said in a low voice, "This Xu Cong really has some skills, if it is a normal fighter, I am afraid that some of them will not be able to win, and there are so many armor soldiers, the situation is a little dangerous." ”

Shen Yi said worriedly, "Let's run away directly, we don't have to entangle with them, otherwise we will drag you to death, as for that Xu Fanshi, let's deal with it later!"

Jiang Ming nodded, took out two fog beads from his arms, and threw them into the air after colliding, and the white smoke instantly wrapped most of the streets. Jiang Ming pulled Shen Yiwu to run from the side, and the former kicked away a chasing cavalryman, grabbed the horse, and carried Shen Yiwu away. At this time, he heard Xu Cong's shout to stay calm and greet each other in formation.

But seeing that the five hundred armor soldiers immediately moved, the cavalry in the middle actually rushed from the front to kill, and there were also armor soldiers with halberds in the rear, Jiang Ming killed a few cavalrymen with halberds, so he felt that the situation was not good, and hurriedly put aside the entanglement of the cavalry and drove towards another street.

But what made Jiang Ming even more puzzled was that all the armor soldiers seemed to intend to let him enter this road, blindly avoiding and dodging, but Jiang Ming couldn't quickly break through the surrounding defenses, Jiang Ming didn't kill many people, and the breakthrough was not effective.

The white mist gradually dissipated, Jiang Ming suddenly saw a row of shield hands and crossbowmen in the square, and saw the arrival of the two of them, and a hundred crossbow arrows were fired together, Jiang Ming hurriedly dialed his halberd to resist, and at the same time turned the horse's head and galloped in the other direction.

Galloping less than 100 meters, the horses sat down and fell to their knees, and it turned out that there were already ambushes to set up stumbling ropes, causing Jiang Ming and Shen Yi to fall off their horses. Jiang Ming hurriedly pressed Shen Yiwei into his arms, rolled a few laps in the dust, and the surrounding armor soldiers surrounded and killed with iron nets and iron hooks, Jiang Ming waved his halberd to cut through the iron net, killing dozens of people and forcibly seizing a horse to run.

Jiang Ming fought in the formation for half an hour, and it took almost half of his physical strength to reach the edge of the military formation, his face was quite tired, and Shen Yi, who was sitting in front, was also thrilling, his fingers touched the wound on Jiang Ming's left arm that was pierced by a crossbow arrow, and said softly, "Let's leave quickly, no wonder it is rumored that 800 grams kill nine sections, this armor soldier brought out by Xu Cong is really powerful." ”

Jiang Ming nodded, even if he suffered a big loss in this formation, he also remembered it for a long time, and he was afraid that he would no longer dare to charge the battle fearlessly. Just as he rode his horse and rushed towards the gate of Jiaozhi City, a pursuer with a long knife and a black horse appeared in Hou Huo Ran, Shen Yi looked back worriedly, and exclaimed, "He is Xu Cong, he wants to take a bow and arrow." ”

Xu Cong boasted of his superb archery skills, he could pierce Yang with an arrow at 300 meters on the horse, and his opponent was a martial arts master, and he didn't want to leave any trouble, so he took a bow, led three arrows, and fired three arrows at once.

Jiang Ming's side halberd was able to block the three arrows fired in a row, but he still didn't expect that the angle of one arrow was extremely tricky, and at the moment when the halberd broke it, the arrow still bounced and inserted into Jiang Ming's shoulder blade. Xu Cong sat under a thousand horses, whose speed and endurance were far from being comparable to ordinary horses, and after a short time, he caught up with Jiang Ming, waved his long knife and fought with Jiang Ming side by side.

Xu Cong shouted: "Wohua Mountain thief, I, Xu Cong, will kill you!"

Jiang Ming's body was shocked, and he suddenly felt strange, why did Xu Cong, who was known for being cunning and domineering, personally besiege and kill him? Why did Xu Fanshi know his whereabouts in advance? Why did he give himself the name of Wohua Mountain?

Passing through the Jiaozhi City Gate, walking on the mountain trade road, galloping with two horses along the way, stepping on the dust like fog, and Jiang Ming and Xu Cong fought inextricably, you come and go back and forth with ten moves.

But Jiang Ming was already exhausted, and he was bleeding from an arrow wound, and gradually his strength couldn't keep up with the speed, and Xu Cong grabbed the loophole and bounced off the Fang Yuan halberd.

It will be even more difficult for a lion without sharp teeth to survive, Jiang Ming is also at a loss for a while, when Xu Cong's long knife is chopped, he puts his hands together to block, Shen Yiwu rides a horse in front of Jiang Ming, and also draws out the short sword to block, but the power of the eight leads on Xu Cong's long knife is not ordinary, the long knife is blocked but it still falls without losing momentum, the blade slashes into the shoulder blades of the two, and the blood and water meet on the blade.

Jiang Ming saw that Shen Yi was injured, his eyes were cold, and he launched a halberd move, using the opponent's blade

The long knife was broken into two, the blade split Xu Cong's armor, Xu Cong fell off the horse, endured the severe pain and stood up again, smashed the handle of the knife and hit the front legs of the horse under Jiang Ming's seat, and the two also fell off the horse.

Jiang Ming stabilized his son, hurriedly helped Shen Yi up, looked at Xu Cong with a cold face, and said to Shen Yi, "I'm sorry, I blame him for underestimating him this time, and I may really have to pay some serious price to leave." ”

Shen Yiwei grinned at this time, although he frowned slightly, he did not feel any sadness, and said, "Seeing you working hard for me, I am already very satisfied." ”

Xu Cong is not stupid, as long as his subordinates come later, these two people will definitely be unable to escape, all he has to do is drag the two of them. He was violent, even if he had no weapons, but his fists and feet were not weak, Jiang Ming hurriedly resisted, and when he noticed the dust flying in the sky on the trade road, he realized the purpose of this old bastard, he wanted to drag himself to death on the road.

Jiang Ming couldn't take it off, and Shen Yiwu also saw that Xu Cong's armor was coming, so he hurriedly pulled out the Fang Yuan halberd that fell aside, and threw it at Jiang Ming, "Take the halberd, go quickly!"

Jiang Ming grabbed the halberd, and shook Xu Cong a few times, so shocked that he didn't dare to fight back, so he stopped fighting, stepped on the ground, and climbed over Xu Cong's black horse, Shen Yiwu did not hesitate, sat in front of Jiang Ming, pulled the reins, and drove the horse forward, but the horse seemed to have a spirit, and it was not guarded by outsiders and wandered, Shen Yiwu was furious, hurriedly pulled out the hosta on the hairpin, and slammed into the horse, the black horse neighed, as if he was crazy and ran forward.

Xu Cong was furious, but he couldn't chase after the other horse because he couldn't ride it. At this time, Xu Fanshi arrived with the cavalry and armor, Xu Cong grabbed the bow and arrow of a cavalryman, aimed at Jiang Ming and the two who were getting farther and farther away, and fired three arrows in a row.

"Dark arrow!" Shen Yiwu shouted, Jiang Ming crossed the halberd, but because the black horse was frightened and ran wildly, he couldn't block all the arrows, and the only one was inserted into Shen Yiwu's leg, Shen Yiwu was not as tenacious as Jiang Ming, and let out a groan of severe pain, Jiang Ming heard it in his ears, and his eyes were already bloodshot.

Xu Cong saw that the two of them were far away, but they were still in the distance, so he took another arrow and wound it, and the three arrows came out again, heading straight for Jiang Ming and the others. Hearing the sound of breaking wind in his ears, although Jiang Ming had the heart to resist, his arm could no longer swing the halberd, so he directly hugged Shen Yiwu with one hand, leaned the whole sub forward, and covered the arrow with his body.

Three arrows, one empty and two hit, one reached Jiang Ming's waist and abdomen, and the other was on his back, but because of the huge strength, it penetrated through the back, and the arrow pierced three inches into Shen Yi's back.

The two of them turned pale and had no strength to fight again, but fortunately, this black horse was extremely fast, and he had already left the pursuers behind, at least the lives of the two were worry-free.

"Father, I don't know if Jiang Ming is dead?" Xu Fanshi looked uneasy, he didn't want such a strong enemy to hide in the shadows.

"It shouldn't be that the person has already run away, riding my black horse, I can walk eight hundred miles in less than half a year, and I can't catch up anymore. Xu Cong covered the knife wound on his chest, he didn't expect that Jiang Ming could attack him with his own knife, such an ingenious technique that put him to death and survive, which made him feel terrified.

"Whew!"

An arrow suddenly flew and directly inserted into Xu Cong's lower abdomen, seeing this, the armor hurriedly surrounded and protected Xu Cong and Xu Fanshi, Xu Cong grabbed a soldier's sword in his hand with severe pain, and shouted towards the side of the hill, "Who is it?

I saw that on the hillside, a tall and strong man showed his head, holding a bow in one hand and a dao in the other, staring coldly at Xu Cong and the armor behind him, and said, "Count your fate, you won't have such good luck next time." ”

Xu Congdao was shocked: "Who is Your Excellency, why did you kill me?"

I only heard the man snort angrily, "Meng Lang, the fifth commander of Wohua Mountain, if you offend my brother, I will wait for the butcher's knife to cut your neck!" After speaking, the man ran into the woods and disappeared.

Xu Fan Shizheng sent someone to chase and kill, Xu Cong waved his hand to stop, sighed lightly and said, "Forget it, if this person is Meng Lang, the person who goes can only be sent to death." That Jiang Ming really colluded with Wohua Mountain, and the news of the Seven Princes was really accurate. Let's bring people back to the city, the Lord of the Sheep Tower Wind City should suspect us of rebellion. ”

In the City Lord's Mansion, Yang Tafeng was lying lazily on the rattan chair, listening to what the spies said, he couldn't help but stand up angrily, "What? Xu Cong dared to hide five hundred armor, and brazenly went to besiege and kill two people from the outer city? Do you really think that Jiaozhi City is his city, does he know that I can kill his entire clan on the charge of rebellion?"

Yang Tafeng suddenly deflated again, and said to himself, "Forget it, the officials from Mingdu City should arrive, I am no longer the city lord of this Jiaozhi, how can I have the power to take care of this? Let him go, Xu Cong of the eighth stage is also a difficult figure to deal with, and there is the support of the Seven Princes behind him, it is estimated that the new officials will also have a headache!"

He said again, "The people of the Golden Water Sect are amazing, they can snatch the blood red agate in a multi-party battle, if it weren't for the news of the Qianfeng Inn, I really wouldn't know." Hey, after this, my heart to chase fame and fortune has also faded, and this Jiaozhi will be left to these powerful people to toss, see who gets him and who collects!"

Jiang Ming hugged Shen Yi and walked for a long time, the black horse seemed to be tired in the end, and stopped on the mountain path with the horse's hooves, and the two people on the horseback were already unconscious and fell off the horse. Jiang Ming vaguely heard a familiar voice calling out his name, it seemed to be Lin Han, he couldn't hear it wrong.

There was also Chu Hong's shouting and scolding, as if he was saying, "This black guy can really run, and it took him so long to catch up." Lin Han seemed to be very angry and said, "Don't talk nonsense, everyone is dying, take them back." ”
