Section 3: Ambush

After Qiu finished arranging manpower in the city, it was already the time of the year, so he hurried to Zhang's house, passing by Zhongyue East Street, and saw a man in blue jumping on the eaves, as if walking on the ground. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info thought of the recent flower picking case, and couldn't help but be suspicious, so he chased after it. Qiu Ruhai sighed: "If it weren't for Qiu's mastery of tracking, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to keep up." ”

Luo Yangxing sneered slightly and did not speak.

Qiu Ruhai continued: "I saw that person turned over and jumped into the courtyard of a house, and sighed: 'Li Taibai has a poem: raise a glass to invite Mingyue, and the shadow becomes a trio. Isn't the girl lonely when she is alone with the moon?' Qiu was still outside the house, afraid of alarming the guy, so he didn't dare to climb over the wall immediately, but only listened in the corner. I heard a woman say coldly: 'Why are you again?'

"Qiu was very puzzled, what is yesterday's suffering? Could it be that this person is the culprit of the flower-picking case, he did not commit a crime yesterday, but he went to find this woman, and he actually missed? Qiu didn't have time to think about it, so he heard the man snort: 'I can see a fairy woman like a girl, no matter how much hardship I suffer, what is there to fear?' The woman did not appreciate it, and sneered: "It's really cheap." ’”

Qiu Ruhai continued: "The man in blue laughed: 'Girl, you were bothered in your mansion yesterday, why don't you come to my place tonight?' The woman sneered: "If you have the ability, why don't you come to my house?" ’”

"I heard the man in blue hesitate for a moment, and then said, 'I'm afraid that there are a lot of crossbows and arrows in the house, and if you see these things, won't it be a big sight?' The woman smiled: 'You know each other, so don't you get out of here.' After saying this, it seemed that he was about to enter the house, and the man in blue hurriedly said, "Wait!" and the woman rebuked, "Why, do you want to do it outside?" ”

Qiu heard them move his hands and quietly jumped onto the wall. I saw that the woman was in a green dress with wide sleeves, a graceful figure, and exquisite moves, but extremely ruthless. He paused, then sighed again: "But the man in blue is even more amazing, no matter how the woman moves, he can always resolve it easily, and he also praises and comments from time to time." Looking back now, if Qiu Mou was a man who picked up his edge, I was afraid that he would not be able to catch the woman's twenty moves, let alone the man in blue. ”

The more Luo Yangxing listened, the more cold his face became, and he interjected coldly: "What is the woman's appearance?"

Qiu Ruhai was stunned for a moment, he didn't know what he was doing with such a boring question, but he still replied: "He fought very fast, and the woman turned her back to Qiu and couldn't see her face clearly." But the body is graceful and the timbre is beautiful. What's more, the thief was for this woman last night, and tonight is coming, and it should be absolutely beautiful. ”

Luo Yangxing clenched his fists and held his chin, as if thinking about something. Yang Ling asked, "Then what?"

The two of them dismantled about 50 moves, regardless of victory or defeat. It was expected that the woman couldn't win for herself, so she made a false move, and kicked the thief diagonally with her right foot to the yin, and the girl sighed: "The beauty is so ruthless, but I like it." Immediately avoiding it, the woman snorted coldly and retreated into the house. ”

Qiu Ruhai continued: "The thief lingered for a long time, and he couldn't decide whether to break into the house or not. Qiu was lying by the wall, and he didn't dare to breathe.

I heard him say, 'Well, if there is fate, there is no hurry. Then he murmured, "Could it be that Lao Tzu wants not to touch a woman for two days and two nights?" Qiu said secretly: "Yes, it must be the thief." Seeing him heading north, he was undoubtedly coming to Zhang's house, so he hurriedly took a shortcut and hurried back. At this moment, the thief is afraid that he has also arrived. ”

"Hmph, it seems that the thief wants to be crazy about women, and if he wants a woman, why don't he go to 'Yichun Courtyard'?" Luo Yangxing said coldly: "But she made me think of a plan." Ladies and gentlemen, Brother Qiu and I will hide in Miss Zhang's boudoir later, while Senior Gu and Brother Yang will ambush outside, and when the guy arrives, let him in, and then ......" He clasped his palms together, and Gu Xun bowed his head and said: "Good plan." Yang Ling also said: "It's a good trick to close the door and beat the dog." ”

The plan has been decided, and Gu Xun and Yang Ling are hiding. Among the four, he has the highest martial arts, and if he is unfortunate enough to be escaped by the thief, he can also be intercepted and killed outside the window.

Luo Yangxing turned into the window and entered Miss Zhang's embroidered tent. The young lady of the Zhang family had already been placed in a safe place by her father, and Qiu Ruhai hid behind the couch.

After about a stick of incense, except for Gu Xun's old and spicy old man, who was still silent, Luo Yangxing on the couch felt irritable, and the single knife was repeated over and over again, pulling it out and pushing it forward. Qiu Ruhai behind the couch also secretly wondered: "This guy's light skills are so high, how come he hasn't come yet?" Even Yang Ling, who was outdoors, was a little anxious, and secretly wondered in his heart: "This flower thief hasn't appeared yet, could it be that he found us hiding here...... Who is this person? And who is the woman Qiu Ruhai has seen? How can her martial arts skills be so high?"

Just when everyone was thinking about it and thinking about it, the wind outside the house was tight, and a figure rushed towards Miss Zhang's room at a very fast speed.

Yang Ling and Gu Xun glanced at each other: "It's finally here!"

The man seemed to have no scruples, he actually came in directly from the outer courtyard, he gently pushed open the door, snorted and sneered, and said to himself: "Even if Miss Zhang is beautiful, how can she compare to you?" ”

Luo Yangxing took advantage of the moonlight outside the window, and saw that the man was dressed in blue, carrying a jar of wine, and was taking a big sip on his back. Luo Yang said: "I think this thief went north from East Street and went to the wine shop to get wine, so he came here, so it's too late, hum, I can make you suffer more this time!"

The man in blue drank wine as he approached the couch. The corners of Luo Yangxing's mouth curled, and he slowly pulled out his blade, just waiting for him to get close to a knife.

But the man walked to the couch and suddenly didn't move, Luo Yangxing hesitated slightly, and for some reason, he heard Qiu Ruhai shout: "Be careful!"

When the sword arrived, Luo Yangxing was startled and avoided, and his right shoulder was still slashed by the long sword. Qiu Ruhai roared and kicked the screen at the man in blue. The man in blue sneered, and with a wave of his long sword, he smashed the screen open, and threw the wine jar aside.

Luo Yangxing got this opportunity, hurriedly jumped out of the bed, slashed three times in a row, and cut the man's lower body.

"Hey, the knife skills are not bad!" the man jumped back, raised his long sword, blocked Luo Yangxing's last knife, and praised it in passing.

It turned out that the man in blue didn't notice Luo and Qiu when he first arrived, until he walked to the couch, the couch was facing the window, and when Luo Yang pushed the knife, the moonlight was refracted through the blade of the knife. The person was alert, and immediately noticed that the person in the couch was breathing deeply, and through the tassel gauze tent, his body was obviously much taller than the woman, and it was definitely not Miss Zhang.

As soon as he calculated, he knew that someone was going to plot against him, so he immediately made the first move. Qiu Ruhai saw it behind the couch and hurriedly reminded him, otherwise he was afraid that one of Luo Yangxing's arms would be cut off.

Qiu Ruhai knew that he was not his opponent, so he pulled out the iron rope and held it across his chest. The man in blue recognized the other party as soon as he saw his blade, and said with a chuckle: "Ha, who am I, it turns out that Wuchang is famous for catching revenge like the sea, I have heard your name when I was far away in the southwest." Brother Qiu not only dared to manage it, but also painstakingly set up an ambush ......" said and glanced at Luo Yangxing again, and said sarcastically: "It is worthy of first-class courage, second-rate intelligence, and third-rate martial arts." Hahaha. Admire, admire, admire. ”

"I don't dare to slack off. What's more, Your Excellency is strong in martial arts, and Qiu asked himself if he was an opponent. "Qiu is like a sea of qi condensing dantian, and he doesn't dare to take it lightly, for fear that the other party will attack when he answers.

The man snorted: "Of course, an enemy brother is not my opponent, if you add this brother who wields a sword, the number of victories and defeats is unpredictable." ”

Luo Yangxing snorted coldly: "Even if Luo is defeated, there will be people with higher martial arts than Luo to meet Your Excellency, Your Excellency does not have to worry." ”

"Oh, Brother Qiu has ambushed someone else?" the man asked.

The reason why he didn't move was because he was afraid that there would still be other ambushes around, although Qiu Ruhai was not in his eyes, but Luo's cultivation martial arts came from Luo Sigong, the first master of Jinyiwei, even if his right arm was injured, it should not be underestimated. Therefore, we should brake with silence and ask questions with words.

Luo Yangxing smiled: "In addition to the two of me, there are two masters, and their martial arts are still above me." Qiu Ruhai's strain is far less than Luo's cultivation, and seeing that he is not obscure, he doesn't understand what he means.

The man thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Really, when did this Dengfeng appear so many masters? Could it be that he is a monk of Shaolin Temple?"

"That's not true, but there is a young man's martial arts originating from Shaolin, and your Excellency might as well get closer to him later. The blood on Luo's right shoulder flowed, but the corners of his mouth were still slightly upturned.

There is a cloud in the art of war: "The real is the virtual, and the virtual is the real." "Luo Yangxing is the son of the former commander-in-chief of the Jinyi Guard, and he obviously knows this well.

The man in blue couldn't distinguish the authenticity, and wondered in his heart: "I've only been in Dengfeng for three days, and I've only done one case, I'm afraid that I haven't alarmed the Shaolin monk yet." If there is really a bald donkey by his side, if he is a good person, he will not bother to hide in the dark, if he is not a good person, why am I afraid of him?"

While thinking about it, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Qiu Ruhai looking at Luo Yangxing suspiciously, as if he was very puzzled, and the blue-clothed man said, "Yes." If this surnamed Luo hadn't been hurt by me first, the enemy would have been hidden in the shadows, and I was afraid that I would have been defeated in their hands. Hmph, even if they still have helpers, most of them are also fast by the yamen, as long as one of them is similar to the martial arts of this surnamed Luo, and they are ambushed together, Lao Tzu will lose miserably. It can be seen that they can't defeat me at this moment, so they set up suspicious soldiers, so that I can retreat in the face of difficulties and recuperate. Hey, think beautifully. took advantage of the injury of the surnamed Luo, and took the lives of the two of them first to get rid of the trouble. ”

He didn't say anything more, and the long sword suddenly stabbed into Luo Yangxing's chest. Luo Yangxing fought with a single knife, and immediately returned a move "Chun and Jingming", but his right arm was injured, and the knife was much weaker. The man in blue saw the flaw, his body was slightly bent, and the long sword slanted Luo Yang's right wrist.

Luo Yangxing snorted coldly, the second half of the "Spring and Jingming" move could only be swallowed raw, and his body avoided it. Qiu Ruhai saw that Luo Yangxing was hiding in embarrassment, and hurriedly rushed to attack.

The three of them dismantled more than 50 moves before they knew it, and the man in blue still had the upper hand under the attack of the two of them. He pointed his sword at the door of the sea, forced open the iron cable, turned his left hand into a fist, and struck on the face of Luo Yangxing's single knife. Luo Yang's right arm was weak, and he couldn't help but take a step back, he was slightly annoyed, and changed his left hand.

Qiu Ruhai pulled the iron rope off his arm and waved it as a soft whip. The iron cable weighed dozens of catties, and when it was wielded, it made a lot of noise in the boudoir of the Zhang family. The man in blue has excellent light skills, and he seems to be stepping on the gossip steps under his feet, dodging the iron rope in a chic and natural, and if he gets a few swords back in the shadow of the whip, he can force Qiu Ruhai back a few steps.

"Hahaha. Your lock method is much inferior to Senior Brother Ling. The man in blue laughed. Qiu Ruhai was under the shadow of his sword, and he didn't even have room to fight back.

Luo Yang's left hand made the knife inconvenient, seeing that the man in blue attacked Qiu Ruhai, Qiu Ruhai had to remove the lock without three moves, otherwise he would be injured, and the left-handed knife slashed the opponent's back obliquely from the left down.

This move is against the original intention of the ordinary knife method, and the man in blue also said "Huh", it is expected that there will be a back move, and he does not dare to be careless. Sure enough, Luo Yangxing's knife was halfway away, and suddenly folded towards the opponent's throat.

This trick is called "Bright Road Dark Road", taken from Han Xin's allusion "Ming Xiu Plank Road, Dark Chen Cang", "Ming Road" is false, "Dark Road" is true, attacking the enemy's unprepared place with undesirable places is a very subtle move in the Tuoming knife.

The man in blue shouted hello and dodged with an iron bridge. Seeing this, Qiu Ruhai hurriedly threw out the iron rope and hit the opponent's lower abdomen, and Luo Yangxing slashed it with a single knife, wanting to cut the opponent into two sections.

What a man in blue! His long sword stabbed the floor with his backhand, and his body spun with his strength, and suddenly rose into the air, and the iron rope hit the air. His long sword took advantage of the trend, and then blocked the single knife, and then supported the ground with one palm, and the long sword turned around, like a circle, forcing Luo and Qiu away. The three swords are made in one go, just like heavenly workmanship.

The three of them made a few more moves, and the blood on Luo's right arm flowed more and more, and Qiu Ruhai hurriedly said: "Brother Luo will go to bandage the wound first, and I will bear it first." ”

How could Luo Yangxing not know the secret, and said in his heart: "If I let go, he will take your life in a few moves." If you die, I can't scream alone, and now I have to warn Brother Yang and Gu seniors, but if they come into the house, it is not difficult to defeat this thief, and the plan to cooperate with the outside will be broken, I am afraid that this guy will take the opportunity to escape, hey, but I can't take care of so much. ”

He roared, and the single knife attacked again, and the man in blue said secretly: "Hmph, this is the end of the strong crossbow." He doesn't fight hard with Luo Yangxing, he steps on footwork, dodges single knives, and fights back from time to time.

After a few moves, Luo Yangxing's knife momentum really slowed down a lot. The man in blue let out a long roar, and the long sword was immediately several times faster, Qiu Ruhai couldn't stop it, only heard the sound of "Zheng!", and the iron rope was cut off by the majestic internal strength attached to the man's long sword!

He was frightened and retreated, but the man in blue did not pursue, the long sword pointed at Luo Yangxing at a faster speed, Luo Yangxing blocked three swords, but was stabbed in the left rib by the fourth sword, seeing that the fifth sword was coming again, he had to throw the single knife horizontally, and rolled behind the couch himself.

The man in blue sneered: "Are you exhausted in donkey skills?" He struck a single knife with his long sword, and was about to cut it down, when he suddenly heard a big blow in the wind behind him, and had no choice but to turn around and block it.

The swords and fans intersected, and the man in blue took a step back, but the person who came only shook for a moment.

The two of them looked at each other, and they were both surprised: "It's you!?"

The person who came was dressed in a green shirt and a folding fan across his chest, it was Yang Ling.
