141 Heroes

With the murderous madman Wu Guiqi and the leader of the illegal salt bandits, Yang Yandi, were arrested one after another. Since the Hezhou Hellfire Shadow case, Hezhou, which has been cloudy, has finally seen some sunshine, and the hearts of the residents of Hezhou have also been relieved a little, and at the same time, they have written to implore Shangguan Lan and Xi Fangping to hope that the prefect Yamen can catch the flower thief Ye Jingshen and the thousand-faced Langjun Meng Qiuchi in the shortest possible time, and at the same time implore KuΓ i to catch the murderer who killed thirty-three people in the Hezhou Hellfire Shadow case.

Although more than 13 felons died, there were still 16 soldiers guarding the Hezhou Prison and four guards on duty, and they did die innocently.

It can be said that in addition to arresting the real culprit of the Hokage case in recent times, the most that the Hezhou Mansion has done is to appease and compensate.

Xi Fangping is already a generous person, and his family's wealth is already strong. On top of the state pension, he used his personal money to increase the pension of the soldiers and prison guards who died innocently in the Hokage case tenfold.

It's been ten days since all the bereavement meals were finished.

Yinfeng Villa.

Shangguan Yu entered the glass house in a regular manner. The day after he escaped from the glass house, he fell ill again. Fortunately, Shangguan Lan couldn't be clearer about his illness, and he was rescued after two days. Now, Yu'er has to stay in the glass house to recuperate in a proper manner. The meat balls were very distressed and accompanied Shangguan Yu.

Although he knew about Shangguan Yu and the Glass House as early as in the correspondence, it was the first time he saw Shangguan Yu and the first time he saw the Glass House. Xi Fangping looked at the child in the glass house in disbelief.

I have always felt that Xi Fangping is a talent worth befriending, and Xi Fangping has also lived in the Xiaoyao Mansion for a long time, not to mention that their letters have never been broken over the years. Although he was still a little frightened at the beginning of Xi Fangping's sexual orientation problem, after writing the letter for many years, Shangguan Lan had already let go of the worries in his heart, and the two were still friends with all sincerity, so Shangguan Lan did not treat Xi Fangping as an outsider, so he told Xi Fangping that Shangguan Yu was born sick and had to live in a glass house.

In Hezhou for five years, no one knew about the Glass House. Even if Guan Yu traveled, the glass house was also carried out by the bodyguards after being packed. In the eyes of outsiders, it was a luxurious twelve-person sedan chair. Only in Yinfeng Villa, the outer packaging of the glass house will be removed, which can not only allow sunlight to penetrate into the glass house, but also allow Shangguan Yu to see the outside scene clearly, so that he will not always feel like a cage.

Xi Fangping sighed: "Yu'er looks pitiful. But Ah Lan, Yu'er has a brother like you, which is also the luckiest and happiest thing in his life. ”

"It's a pity that I, the elder brother Jiang Lang, is exhausted, and I can't save my younger brother from the cage." If the glass house is a cage in Shangguan Yu's eyes, how can it not be a cage in Shangguan Lan's eyes.

"Alan. I remember when you asked me to study literature, I was a little hesitant. You said something that 'where there is a will, there is a way to do it' to encourage me. Isn't it that I'm so afraid of writing that I'm starting to study literature too? In the past few years, I have not let go of the promise I made to you for a while, except for the daily compulsory training of the martial arts journey, and the daily compulsory training of the literary journey. It is because of this that I have achieved what I am today, wearing the armor of a general. I can succeed, what else can you not succeed? If you are hesitant and doubt yourself, I may as well give you the phrase 'where there is a will, there is a success'. I believe in you, and you will be able to save your little brother from prison. ”

Xi Fangping's words of encouragement were like a clear spring that made Shangguan Lan's mind suddenly clear, he smiled and slapped his fist on Xi Fangping's shoulder, and said, "Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years." ”

Shangguan Lan's smile is as light as jade, and the scenery is beautiful. I almost trampled Xi Fangping's god. Fortunately, at this time, a joyful call of 'Fang Ping' forced Xi Fangping to turn around.

The person who came was Wu Nianting, and it was Long Shihuai who accompanied Wu Nianting. During this time, she always followed Long Shihuai in and out, and Xi Fangping always missed it. Today is the first time we have met.

Xi Fangping knew Long Shihuai himself, "Meet His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Long Shihuai motioned to Xi Fangping to excuse himself, and advised: "I am going out on patrol in micro-clothes, don't take a bite of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future." lest I be betrayed. ”

"Yes."

"Fang Ping, do you still know her?" Pointing in the direction of Wu Nian Pavilion, Long Shi looked at Xi Fangping with concern.

Xi Fangping looked at Wu Nianting a little confused, he could be sure that Fang Cai's happy 'Fang Ping' was from the tall and beautiful woman in front of him, but he really didn't have any image of her. The words 'Who are you' are clearly written in his eyes.

I don't want to be a true hero when I was young I can't recognize her, and it's in vain that she has written so many letters to him regardless of her previous suspicions over the years, Wu Nianting has a little regret and is unwilling to say: "Fang Ping, you don't know me anymore?" ”

Xi Fangping raised his hand, "May I ask the girl, who are you?" ”

"I'm Dzi." Wu Nianting's voice revealed complete disappointment.

"Dzi?" After Xi Fangping exclaimed, he looked at her forehead and said, "Where is your plum blossom mole?" ”

Wu Nianting stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead, and said, "The master said that my mole was too eye-catching, so he wiped it with medicated water." ”

Also, no one in the world knows that there is a plum blossom mole on the forehead of the folk princess. Besides, Wu Nianting has been following Shangguan Lan for a long time, according to her temperament when she was a child, she must not be the kind of person who will be raised in Yinfeng Villa. Xi Fangping suddenly realized 'oh' and said, "You are the witty and agile girl next to Ah Lan?" ”

'Hehe' smiled, Wu Nianting said: "Yes, it's me." As she spoke, she unconsciously approached Xi Fangping.

Of course, Shangguan Lan did not miss Wu Nianting's previous regretful eyes and tone, but now seeing that the little apprentice still had the intention of being close to Xi Fangping, he pulled the little apprentice aside without a trace, forcing her to stay away from Xi Fangping.

Of course, Xi Fangping and Wu Nianting didn't notice Shangguan Lan's small movements because of their lively conversation, but Long Shihuai understood. He couldn't help but chuckle a few times.

Gotta laugh a few times.

"Meet the princess."

"Ah, Fang Ping, don't, are you trying to torment me?" Wu Nianting hurriedly struggled to get rid of Shangguan Lan's pull to help Xi Fangping up. However, Shangguan Lan just didn't let go, but just said to Xi Fangping: "Tianzhu's identity is special, and you don't need to talk about these monarch etiquette in the future, lest she be afraid of you and alienate you." ”

Although he doesn't like women, Xi Fangping still likes Wu Nianting very much. Although this kind of liking has nothing to do with the love between men and women, it is more about the righteousness of friends, but he didn't want Wu Nianting, a good buddy, to be afraid of him and alienate him from now on, so he hurriedly said: "Yes." ”

Seeing Shangguan Lan holding Wu Nianting's hand tightly, Long Shihuai smiled more and more ill-intentionedly. was about to add three more fires, but suddenly saw Shangguan Yu in the glass house move, thinking that he was about to wake up. So he hurriedly silenced.

Soon, Long Shihuai, Shangguan Lan, Wu Nianting, and Xi Fangping entered the compartment for disinfection, took off their robes, and entered the glass house respectively.

When Shangguan Yu opened his eyes and saw that there were so many people around him, he smiled, and under the smile, he was drunk with the eyes of many people like a spring breeze. Later, some people commented that the laughter of the thirteen young people of the Shangguan family when they woke up in a daze was the most alluring and the most demagogic, and they used 'Allure Smile' to refer to Shangguan Yu's laughter.

"Yu'er, look, he is Xi Fangping, a big hero who stands up to the sky." Wu Nianting couldn't wait to introduce it, and pulled Xi Fangping in front of Shangguan Yu.

Shangguan Lan sat on the bed and half-hugged Shangguan Yu, of course, he couldn't pull Wu Nianting anymore, but just swept his cold eyes and Wu Nianting grabbed Xi Fangping's arm.

Shangguan Yu and Xi Fangping nodded, they knew each other. Then the same cold eyes as Shangguan Lan inadvertently swept over Wu Nianting's hand holding Xi Fangping's arm, and finally raised his eyes to look at Wu Nianting and said, "In my eyes, there is only one great hero in this world, and that is the eldest brother." ”

Hearing the unkindness and provocation in the little guy's words, Xi Fangping smiled: "In my heart, there is only one great hero in this world, and that is also your eldest brother." ”

"Oh?"

"I used to be a reckless man, if it weren't for your eldest brother to persuade me to learn, I'm afraid that I wouldn't be the person I am today."

Without waiting for Xi Fangping to finish speaking, Wu Nianting hurriedly said: "And me, I discussed the Art of War with you with each other, have you forgotten?" ”

Xi Fangping touched his head with a smile and said, "Yes, there is also a dzi, if it weren't for "Sun Tzu's Art of War", I wouldn't have learned the way of war so well." ”

On the occasion of Wu Nianting and Youyou's honor, Xi Fangping looked at Shangguan Yu again, and said: "For me, your eldest brother is just a little bit of a golden finger, but for the country, your eldest brother is a real hero." ”

"Oh?"

"In the twenty-second year of Jing'an, your eldest brother served as the prefect of Hezhou, and at the same time took charge of Jiangzhou and Huzhou affairs. In just two years, nearly 100 unsolved and suspected cases in the backlog of the three states were solved. The people of Sanzhou are called 'Shangguan Qingtian'. ”

When Wu Nianting heard this, there was a smile on his face. It was also in those two years that she learned the most from her master.

I only heard Xi Fangping say again: "In the twenty-fourth year of Jing'an, the embankment of the Jiangzhou River collapsed. The flooding river has flooded large tracts of fertile land, leaving more than 100,000 residents in Jiangzhou without shelter, clothing, or food. If it weren't for your eldest brother who transferred a large amount of food and clothing from Huzhou to fund the flood in Jiangzhou, Jiangzhou would be ten rooms and nine empty now, which is tantamount to purgatory in the world. Now Jiangzhou is still prosperous, that is the credit of your eldest brother, and the people in Jiangzhou today call your eldest brother a parent official. ”

Wu Nianting clearly remembered that year was a good year for the prince's brother to choose a concubine, but because of the collapse of the Jiangzhou embankment, she and her master had been busy with disaster relief and saving people, so they had no time to go to the capital to congratulate.

"In the twenty-fifth year of Jing'an, a locust plague occurred in Huzhou, and the locusts crossed the border and the grass did not grow. It's your eldest brother again, who personally transferred a large amount of food and clothing from Hezhou to fund Huzhou. At the same time, they brought grain to plant and rushed to plant the second crop of rice to ensure the food rations in Huzhou, and the people of Huzhou no longer lived the days of continuing to rely on people for relief. If it weren't for your eldest brother's quick decision, the residents of Huzhou would have fled for safety. At that time, Huzhou's millions of hectares of fertile land will be uncultivated, and Huzhou, which is known as the Dongao grain field as a wartime reserve, will become a deserted land. Xiao Yu'er, do you know that over the years, the food I have eaten at the border has been produced in Huzhou. ”

Xi Fangping said, and the corners of Shangguan Yu's mouth hooked up with a smile. I only heard Xi Fangping say again: "So, your eldest brother is not only a big hero who stands up to the sky in your eyes, but also a big hero who stands up to the sky and the earth in my eyes." ”

Yes, in just five years, Shangguan Lan has done a lot of things and has become a parent official admired by everyone in Jiangzhou, Huzhou, and Hezhou. Originally, after returning to Beijing to complete the marriage, Emperor Jing'an would appoint Shangguan Lan as the governor of Jiangzhou, Huzhou, Hezhou, Haizhou, and Hezhou.

Long Shihuai was in his thoughts, only to hear Shangguan Lan laugh and say, "Fang Ping, what do you know with children." Shangguan Lan knew that this young brother was extremely protective of him, and in the younger brother's cognition, Wu Nianting was his Shangguan Lan's. It's all to blame Wu Nianting for grabbing Xi Fangping's arm, the younger brother is angry, and it is rare that he finally regains the temperament of a child.

Shangguan Lan rubbed Shangguan Yu's forehead lightly, and asked again, "Are you comfortable today?" ”

"Hmm."

"Now that you're comfortable, I'll talk to Mr. Xi about the ninja."

It turned out that since Hezhou became an unbreakable net, with the murderous demon Wu Guiqi who took advantage of the chaos to escape, and the leader of the illegal salt bandit Yang Yandi were brought to the case one after another, and then the thief Shi Qian was also brought to justice.

However, Shi Qian's return to the case looks extremely wolf. The whole person almost went crazy. Fortunately, Shangguan Lan's medical skills saved him and brought him back to life, making him regain a little clarity.

From Shi Qian's narration, Shangguan Lan and the others knew a scene that Zhang Jiaotou had not seen.

At that time, after Shi Qian climbed out of the hole in the wall of Hezhou Prison with a group of criminals, he suddenly felt that he was in front of him

He felt that the snow in front of him had become a wall of snow, and then from the wall of snow he conjured up more than a dozen snowmen with their heads and masks, just like the Hokage killers, these snowman killers also held long blades in their hands.

Some of the criminals who crawled out of the holes in the wall were cut off their heads like turnips by the snowmen, and they didn't even have a chance to struggle. Some people who know martial arts, such as big guys, fight with those snowmen, although sometimes knock those snowmen to the ground. But those snowmen are very weird, they are hit by people and scattered on the ground, and after a while, they can conjure up from the snow and give people a fatal blow again. There were also soldiers who were guarding the prison and were also cut to the ground by those snowman killers like chopping turnips and cabbage.

At that time, Shi Qian, who claimed to be well-informed, was dumbfounded, and there was blood in front of him. While he was stunned, a corpse that had been split in half by a snowman flew towards him, and he was crushed underneath the corpse. At that time, he hid under the dead body, and did not dare to open his eyes again, but his ears were constantly hearing screams and screams.

He didn't know how long it had been, but he felt that the days had passed. It was only after all the voices were silent for a long time that he dared to move. Then, he tried to push the corpse pressed against him, poking his head out, and saw the many corpses or mutilated limbs in front of him.

He staggered to his feet and looked at the purgatory on earth, and he was so frightened that he couldn't scream. It was at this time that he noticed that he had been pushed on the back, and he looked back in a daze, and then saw the two mutes who were in prison with him.

"You, you...... Also alive. When he finally asked, he caught a glimpse of a fire in the hole in the wall, and then the Fire Shadow Slayer, covered in flames, walked out with a knife in his hand. He screamed 'ah'. With trembling hands, he pointed to the back of the mute and motioned for them to look.

However, the two mutes only pointed behind him and motioned for him to take a look.

Shi Qian turned around and saw more than a dozen snowmen holding long blades standing behind him. I don't know if he was dazzled, at that time the snowman seemed to come from the clouds and fog, and then it was very clear, it was no longer a snowman, but just a dozen snowmen wearing snowsuits. But the long blade in his hand is still a long blade.

Immediately after, the dozen or so snow-clad men knelt down on one knee in front of him at the same time, startling him. As an incomprehensible word sounded behind him, the dozen or so snow-clothed people got up at the same time and stood aside respectfully.

Even if Shi Qian was stupid, he also knew that it was definitely not him who knelt down to the dozen or so snow-clothed people, so he turned his head again in a daze, and then saw the Hokage killer kneeling in front of the two dumb men with a long blade. Just like those snow-clothed people, as the Hokage Killer knelt down, the flames on the killer's body were gone, and what appeared in front of Shi Qian was nothing more than a person in fiery red clothes.

The two mutes spoke again, and one of them motioned for the Hokage killer to get up. It seemed to say a few more words, and then the Hokage Slayer also said 'Hi' and got up, standing respectfully to the side.

Shi Qian is used to stealing chickens and dogs, and he has also stolen from neighboring countries, and he knows a little about South Vietnamese and North Pole dialects. However, what these two mutes and the snow-clothed man and the Hokage man said, Shi Qian didn't understand half of it. But the only thing that is certain is that these two mutes are the owners of these killers, or that these killers were hired to save these two mutes.

Maybe they have been in Hezhou prison for a long time, and these two dumb men can also speak Hezhou a little, although they can't speak completely and the tone is not like that at all, but Shi Qian still understands, these two dumb people hope that Shi Qian will go with them.

Can you not follow them? Otherwise, your life will be gone.

In this way, Shi Qian was escorted by this group of people on the road out of Hezhou City.

The Hezhou Prison was built in the northernmost part of the city, in the middle of a relatively barren mountainous area. If you want to leave Hezhou, take the north gate the fastest.

But just as they walked a mile away from Hezhou Prison, the sound of arrows came from the direction of Hezhou Prison.

Looking at the sound of arrows in the sky above Hezhou Prison, this shows that the people in Hezhou Prison are not dead, and there are survivors.

One of the two mutes slapped the Hokage Killer, and the Hokage Killer just said 'Hi' and drew his knife, preparing to go to Hezhou Prison again to kill the survivors.

The other of the two mutes grabbed the Hokage Killer, as if to say, 'Forget it, let's go'.

Shi Qian clearly knew that once the arrows of Hezhou Prison were lifted into the air, the four gates of Hezhou City would be closed immediately, and it would be extremely difficult to get out of the city.

One of the mutes looked in the direction of Hezhou Prison and beckoned Shi Qian to come over. The lame asked 'what's going on' in a lame dialect.

Of course, Shi Qian didn't want to go with so many dangerous people, so he added fuel and vinegar to the effect of the arrow, and explained it with a gesture.

I don't know if those people understand it. Anyway, one of the dumb men was silent for a long time, and finally said in a lame Dongao dialect, "Take us to a place where your government can't find it, and we want something to eat." From now on you will follow us, and if you dare to run, I will kill you.'"

Shi Qian wanted to bring them to the prefect's yamen, but these people were so shrewd that they seemed to know the terrain and terrain of this place for a long time. Every time he took them to prepare to take the wrong road and then went to the Yamen of the Hezhou prefect to surrender himself, someone would come out to stop him, and finally a killer directly pulled out a knife and pointed it at his nose and said, 'If you are smart again, you will be killed.' ’

Looking at the bright knife, Shi Qian didn't dare to be clever anymore. At the same time, he also understood why these people didn't kill him, it was the two dumb people who ordered it. After two months of coexistence in prison, these two mutes knew how powerful Shi Qian was, and felt that he was a useful talent, so they saved him his life.

Shi Qian is used to stealing chickens and dogs, so of course he knows where to hide. So he took them to a mountain and hid them in a cave for a few days. At the same time, Shi Qian went out every day to find food and inquire about news for them. Of course, Shi Qian didn't act alone, he was always followed by the Hokage killer. often

Killer. Whenever he thought about the cruelty of that Hokage killer when he killed someone, Shi Qian didn't dare to think of running away.

Seven days later, perhaps it was Shi Qian's well-behaved behavior that made these people feel relieved, and their care for him was no longer as strict as before. As a result, Shi Qian began his escape with one blow.

It was the eighth day after the Hezhou Hezhou Hell Fire Shadow Case, and Shi Qian was taken by the Hokage Killer to the city to forage for food and medicine. It turned out that after a period of time in the mountains, with irregular food and severe cold, some of the killers fell ill. Shi Qian also deliberately pretended to have diarrhea, and ran into the toilet from time to time along the way.

At first, the Hokage Killer thought that Shi Qian wanted to escape with the help of urine, but after repeated times, Shi Qian honestly came out of the toilet with his pants on. After finding food and buying medicine several times, when Shi Qian ran to the toilet again, the Hokage Killer no longer stared at Shi Qian as before. It was in this situation that Shi Qian went to the toilet and still obediently came out with his pants up.

Until the last moment, it was known that this latrine was the closest place to the prefect's yamen. Shi Qian went into the latrine again. Then without hesitation, he jumped into the dung pit, got out from the other end, and ran to the Yamen of the Hezhou prefect with a smelly smell and did not dare to rest his feet all the way.

This is also the reason why Shi Qian was quite wolf when he appeared in the Yamen. Maybe he was frightened, maybe his stomach was really bad, or maybe he escaped from the dung pit, Shi Qian was sick and delirious, and finally survived with Shangguan Lan's treatment. Then at the behest of Shangguan Lan, Shi Qian led the way, and Xi Fangping led the army to the cave to arrest people. As a result, the cave has long been empty. It's just that the chaos of the cave in TongguΓ² can be inferred that Shi Qian is not lying.

Listen to everything. Shangguan Yu sighed: "Presumably, the thundering arrow in the sky above Hezhou Prison should have been put by Zhang Cell. Pity him, he was so frightened by the tragic situation that he lost all his feelings, and he didn't remember it. Although he was too scared to know anything, he subconsciously put the arrow on his waist. Thanks to Zhang Cell, if it weren't for this thundering arrow rising into the air, the four city gates would have been closed in time, otherwise by the time we found out, all the people would have already left the city. ”

"Yes, that's how it should be." Xi Fangping said.

So, Shangguan Yu told Xi Fangping everything he knew about the ninjas of the Sakura Kingdom.

And Long Shihuai also told him how to deal with those ninjas on the way to Hezhou.

Xi Fangping was shocked: "If they just use the things around them to hide, just like His Royal Highness the Prince's method, we can distinguish the real from the fake by blindfolding." But if they can really use gold, wood, water, fire, and earth to conjure up phantoms, how will they deal with it? ”

According to Shi Qian and Zhang Jiaotou, those ninjas are either fire bodies or snow bodies, which are obviously phantoms. And it's an illusion capable of killing.

Even if Shangguan Yu read all the books, there was no good way to deal with those ninjas at this time, so he had to say: "In addition to still using the blindfolded sound recognition method of His Royal Highness the Prince, it is nothing more than the word 'fast'." ”

"Quick?"

"Whether it's what Zhang Jiaotou said or what Shi Qian said, those phantoms are just people in the end. The snowman wears white and the fire man wears red, and these colors are their best protective colors. Outsiders look at them walking slowly step by step, but in fact, inside, their posture should have changed in thousands of ways with each step, and it is precisely because of these changes that the illusion that outsiders see. ”

Everyone is a person who practices martial arts, and everyone understands when Shangguan Yu says this. Whether it is a sword, gun, sword or fist, every move and style contains thousands of variations, which is nothing more than a 'fast' word, only fast to the extreme, can truly master martial arts.

"I think ninjutsu is just about the word 'fast', so fast that people can't see the real move at all. Then you will see an illusory vision. Therefore, only when we practice the ability to be faster than them, we will naturally be able to discover the mysteries, and we will naturally know which is the real body and which is the phantom. ”

If a person who also practices boxing has only one fist thrown out of one fist, his practice is only mediocre. If there are dozens of punches in one fist, his cultivation can be called a master. If there are thousands of changes in one fist, his cultivation can be described as a martial arts wonder.

In the glass house, there are three martial arts strange materials: Shangguan Lan, Long Shihuai, and Xi Fangping.

Outside the glass house, there are many martial arts masters: only limited to the bodyguards of the Shangguan family, such as Tianmeng, Tianxuan, Tianping, Tianman, Tianyi, Tianying, Tianqiao and others.

According to Shangguan Yu, the only ones who can break the ninja's 'fast' are the three martial arts in the glass house now.

But according to Shi Qian, although there is only one Naruto, there are sixteen snow-clothed ninjas, and there are two mutes who seem to be leaders who have never made a move.

In other words, the other party's martial arts and strange materials should be treated by nineteen people.

How to fight a battle where less wins more has to be carefully discussed.

Inside the glass house, a room of heated discussions.

Outside the glass house, snow was falling.

While everyone was discussing how to deal with the ninjas, a beautiful black tulip-shaped firework suddenly bloomed in the sky. Even in the daytime, because the fireworks are black, it is also quite conspicuous.

Seeing the fireworks, Long Shihuai's eyes changed suddenly, and after saying 'Yuan'er', he didn't say much and hurriedly walked out of the glass house.
