Walking the rivers and lakes, hard-working is a necessary quality, otherwise even if you have world-class martial arts, you will not be able to go far, when he found that Jiang Yuetang could endure hardships more than he imagined, Fang Zhaoheng was very pleased.

In this way, there will be a lot less tangles and troubles in the itinerary.

The people of the 'Sun Moon Meteor Faction' and the 'Tiannan Knife' faction met before dawn and went to a certain hotel to meet the people they were escorting.

After arriving at the hotel, Jiang Yuetang found that there were several people in ordinary clothes but extraordinary bearing, and couldn't help but take a closer look.

There were six people in the room, ranging in age from their twenties to their sixties. Judging by their expressions, they were a little anxious and panicked, so they all looked out of the door and window from time to time.

Seeing the arrival of the two teams, they immediately showed relaxed and happy expressions, and the eldest of them took the lead in standing up to greet them.

Fang Zhaoheng and Gang Leader Feng nodded at them and said, "Let you wait for a long time, let's go on our way now." ”

They didn't speak, nodding in agreement.

So they got into two wagons that had been prepared for them by two groups of men.

The two of them sat in one, and there were three carriages in total.

The two groups rode on horseback as before, but this time in front, on both sides, and behind the three carriages, enclosing the three carriages and their occupants in a safe zone.

Jiang Yuetang and Fang Zhaoheng's horse walked side by side, and Jiang Yuetang asked softly who the six people Fang Zhaoheng was escorting were.

Fang Zhaoheng thought for a while before replying in a low voice: "It's a few Guanzhong brothers, they were hunted down by nearly a hundred people because they offended a certain bully in Yuancheng, and we want to escort them out of the customs safely this time." ”

Jiang Yuetang: "Will the bully target us?"

"Of course it will, so I called someone from the 'Tiannan Dao' faction to accompany me this time. Now the total number of our two factions is nearly four hundred, and they are less than a hundred in total, so they dare not come near. When these Guanzhong brothers are safely escorted out of the customs, we will stay there for a few days at Ximen Pass to see if the bully dares to come to cause trouble, and if he dares to come, we will take decisive action. Fang Zhaoheng said in a low voice.

Jiang Yuetang: "Understood." Then he asked, "Why didn't we take the initiative to destroy these bullies?"

"We have a rule when we walk the rivers and lakes - if you can, try not to kill people, unless the other party's behavior has reached the level of heinousness. This bully is bad, but it's not there yet. ”

Jiang Yuetang nodded.

Fang Zhaoheng said: "Now, our group is being followed by the bully's people, they may be ambushed around here, maybe not far behind us, so we have to raise our spirits." ”

Jiang Yuetang immediately shook his spirits and said, "Yes." ”

Along the way, the people of the 'Sun Moon Meteor Knife' and the 'Tiannan Knife' were very vigilant, fully guarding against the sudden attack of the bully's people.

The experience of being on high alert all the time of the day made Jiang Yuetang feel exhausted, but helpless.

In the past, she thought that the knights who walked the rivers and lakes were at ease most of the time, but now that she has become a part of it, she realizes that this is not the case.

It seems that the matter of asking Fang Zhaoheng to teach her martial arts is far away, she sighed in her heart.

But then there is another kind of satisfaction, a kind of satisfaction that is doing good deeds anytime and anywhere, and a kind of calmness and peace of mind that spreads from the bottom of the heart.

It was night, and everyone stayed in a hotel in a border town.

Because of the large number of people, almost the entire town was contracted by them.

At this time, it is the beginning of the spring snow, the weather is biting, and the wind is as sharp as a knife, so there are basically no pedestrians on the road.

Under such circumstances, so many people suddenly came, and the owners of these hotels could not help but be overjoyed, and immediately mobilized all their personnel to give them a warm welcome.

Jiang Yuetang is still staying in the same room with Fang Zhaoheng.

After putting the things down, Fang Zhaoheng said to Jiang Yuetang, "Tonight, I want to teach you some introductory knowledge of knife techniques first. Then he pointed to an open space not far from the window and said, "Let's go there and practice." ”

Because he was afraid that Jiang Yuetang would be tired and refused to practice, he explained: "There are many things along the way, and it is very rare to live somewhere for a long time, so I can only teach while walking." ”

Jiang Yuetang was overjoyed and said: "Then there is Brother Lao Zhaoheng." ”

Fang Zhaoheng took out a long knife like a crescent moon from his pocket and said, "This is the 'Sun Moon Meteor Knife'." ”

Jiang Yuetang hurriedly took it.

This knife is about two feet seven or eight long, the blade is sharp and revealing the cold light, the handle is cross-shaped, and it is very easy to hold in the hand, but because the whole knife has a certain weight, Jiang Yuetang still feels a little difficult to hold it with one hand.

Seeing that he had 'no power to grasp the knife', Jiang Yuetang smiled self-deprecatingly.

Fang Zhaoheng said loudly: "The basic skills of the knife are splitting, chopping, piercing, sweeping, dialing, cutting, sweeping, wrapping the head and wrapping the brain, the first seven types can be understood without me saying it, and I will explain the last two - wrapping the head and wrapping the brain are usually used together, which refers to wrapping the knife around the head and shoulders. ”

As he spoke, Fang Zhaoheng made a demonstration.

Jiang Yuetang also hurriedly learned to do it.

She has a very good understanding, and after fiddling with it three or four times, she has done it well.

Fang Zhaoheng started with 'splitting': "Hold the knife with both hands, the blade facing down, first stand with both feet together, then bend the right knee slightly, and hold the handle of the knife with the left hand......"

He observed Jiang Yuetang's movements while demonstrating, and when he saw that Jiang Yuetang's movements were not standardized enough, he immediately put away his knife and came forward to correct it.

After Jiang Yuetang's movements were standardized, Fang Zhaoheng began to teach her 'splitting knife'.

For a while, the sound of blades touching each other came from time to time in the open field.

In order to take care of Jiang Yuetang, Fang Zhaoheng deliberately only used two points. But after some practice, Jiang Yuetang's hands were so tired that he couldn't even hold the knife steadily.

Fang Zhaoheng saw that it was late at night, so he said: "Let's learn the 'splitting knife' first tonight, and next time we will practice the next move." ”

Jiang Yuetang hurriedly said: "Yes, thank you Brother Zhaoheng." ”

Fang Zhaoheng took the knife in her hand intimately and said, "You go back to bathe first, I'll go out and go back." ”

Jiang Yuetang knew that he deliberately went back a little later to avoid her embarrassment, so he nodded hurriedly and said, "Okay." ”

So I walked back to the hotel.

As she was about to untie the layers of cloth around her waist and chest, she nervously looked at the closed door, lowered the curtain when no one had entered, locked the bathroom door, carefully untied it, and then slowly lay down in the tub.

The warm water spread through her body, stretching her limbs, which were already almost frozen.

When she felt comfortable, the tiredness slowly rose, making her eyelids fight, but for the sake of safety, she always kept herself up and didn't let herself sleep.

Reluctantly getting up from the tub, she wrapped herself in a clean strip of cloth before dressing.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
