The Wind Rises Chapter 19 First Meeting

The long whistle fell, the horse's hooves sounded, and the two horses galloped straight from the avenue, both with crowns on their heads but not crowns, embroidered white horses.

The man at first was slender and thin-faced, but he had a long beard, a long sword at his waist, and a long bow hanging diagonally on his horseback, obviously the arrow just now was shot by this person, but I don't know how such a thin body burst out with such great power.

Then a burly man with a gloomy face, holding a ring-headed knife in his hand, followed the man like a shadow.

Before the horse arrived, the beard had already patted the horse's back, kicked his feet, and flew into the crowd like an arrow from the string, and with a wave of the long sword in his hand, the silver light flashed, and the long whip broke from it. The burly man pointed at Tan Po and stuck with Tan Po.

Wang Li secretly smiled bitterly, but he didn't stop in his hand, the long sword stabbed sharply, a little cold, and suddenly stabbed another person, and the person fell to the ground with a muffled snort.

"Dog thief, count your fate! But I wonder if you will have such a chance next time? Tan Po separated Wang Li with a knife, jumped out of the circle and snorted coldly, glanced at Sun Cai and the rest of the people, turned his head and ran into the forest, and disappeared after a while.

Cut, who wouldn't say cruel words!

Wang Li shook his head and watched Sun Cai and the others go away, then he picked up the scabbard and turned his head and arched his hand: "Thank you, Your Excellency, for saving your life." ”

"Why be polite, it's just a gesture!" The beard shook his hand, and walked directly to the tree with his sword, looking at the Dao Dao sword marks on the tree, motionless, and not sweeping Wang Li, it was extremely cold.

Wang Li was stunned when he saw this, shouldn't he be tempting each other when he encounters a similar situation on the rivers and lakes, or bow down when he sees it? Why did this person have a rejecting expression?

In that case, why should you put a hot face on your cold ass! Wang Li shook his head, saluted the two and said: "Wang Li once again thank you for saving your life, Li Shang has something important to do, say goodbye, I will report the grace of saving my life later!" ”

"Wang Li?" The beard raised his head suddenly, looked directly at Wang Li and asked, "Wei County thief Cao Peng Wang Li?" ”

Am I that famous? Wang Li's heart was vigilant, he looked at his beard vigilantly, moved his position slightly, hugged his fists and said, "It's Wang!" ”

"Humph! There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it! ”

Before the words fell, a clear spring had illuminated the forest, and the long sword in the beard's hand roared softly, like a silver snake flying out of its sheath.

"Who are you, and is there any misunderstanding with so-and-so?"

Hey, could this be the enemy of Wang Li in the past? Wang Li blinked, but his steps had already shrunk, moving left and right in the shadow of the bearded sword, like a swimming fish swimming in the deep sea.

"Misunderstanding? Regardless of whether there is a misunderstanding or not, let's fight first! ”

The beard let out a long roar, the silver sword in his hand shook, a sword light rose to the sky, the long sword held three sword flowers in the air, the poisonous snake spit out a letter, and the three sword flowers went straight to Wang Li's eyebrows, chest and throat.

Then, there was another angry shout behind him, and the ring-headed knife in the hand of the burly man was like a long rainbow through the sun and took Wang Li's vest.

Hum! deceived people too much, when Shicai fought with Sun Cai and others, he hadn't gone all out, but he was just afraid of scaring away everyone, and he really didn't have the grace to save your life!

Wang Li snorted coldly, and gradually became a little angry in his heart, and the long sword in his hand danced like a splash of wind, protecting himself in the bright moon of the sea, the cold light on the ground, and the sword shadow in the sky.

When the long sword danced, it was like the tide of the spring river overflowing the embankment and connecting with the sea, and there was only a silver line left between the sea and the sky. Whoosh, the blade of the sword turned again, and a lonely moon rose from the sea, sprinkled with silver light on the sea, layers of ripples, ten thousand waves, all reflecting the bright moonlight, and the entire sea and sky became a white expanse.

At the end: quiet as the condensation of the river and sea, moving like thunder. Thousands of miles with the waves, where there is no moon in the spring river!

In an instant, seven or eight rounds had passed since the three of them had fought each other, and the sound of the clash of gold and iron was deafening, and the light aroused by the collision of swords was like a splash of waves, and the bright moon was shining.

The woods are brighter.

Suddenly, Wang Li's figure was on one side, the long sword was unloaded and dragged, and the ring of the head knife behind his back had already slashed in front of him along the sword momentum, and was directly on the long sword with a beard. Changhong landed, and the sword flowers flew away.

The two of them were shocked at the same time, and stood with their hands down, looking at Wang Li, his eyes were full of horror.

"You didn't use all your strength to fight the thief?" The beard finally recovered from the shock, and his voice trembled slightly.

Wang Li was noncommittal, the long sword was returned to the sheath, and he looked at the two and said indifferently: "I don't know where Wang offended the two brothers, and let the two of them shoot so ruthlessly, wanting to put Wang and die!" ”

"It's a joke." The beard touched his face, said a loud voice, suddenly glanced at the burly man, abandoned the sword (knife) and saluted Wang Li on the ground, and said, "Huang Ling and Chen Poyu have seen the brother of the Wang family!" ”

Huang Ling, Chen Poyu?

Wang Li was stunned, but listened to Huang Ling continue: "When Huang and Brother Chen walked the rivers and lakes, they heard that the silver fox in Jizhou was impermanent, and he rescued the weak girl by eliminating bandits on the street, and solved several cases with the momentum of thunder, suppressing the bandits in Fuhugang who did not dare to move.

Because of his love for white clothes, the thief Kou exclaimed behind his back: There is a Yama in the underworld, and there are white clothes in Yecheng in Wei County. In the case of Jiafu Jin Cao ten months ago, the elder brother relied on a pair of sharp eyes to peel off the cocoon and touch the melon, and found out the murderer hiding in Bingcao in one fell swoop, and then shined in the battle of Caishikou.

My two brothers heard the noise day and night, so they wanted to go to Wei County to find Brother Wang to see. Who knew that when I saw Brother Wang fighting with those thieves, it seemed that the martial arts were not as outstanding as the rumors, so the two of us had the courage to try it with Brother Wang, only to find that Brother Wang was really extraordinary in martial arts, and just now he was just hiding people's eyes and ears, intending to capture the thief alive. I ask Brother Wang's forgiveness for the disturbance and offense! ”

Excuse me?

If Wang's martial arts are a little worse, wouldn't he have died under the sword of you? Wang Li glanced at the two of them angrily, and before he could speak, he saw that the beard had come forward: "Brother Wang, don't blame, my two brothers are both old brothers!" ”

Old friend? Is there an old man who has never met or even heard of it, and who is flying with swords as soon as he comes up?

Where is this old man, this is the enemy!

Wang Li was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but take a step back, but a strange feeling rose in his heart, this beard is respectful and sincere, what does it have to do with him? It's just that why do you never have an impression of this person?

What's even more peculiar is that this beard is said to be a big man, but his figure is like a girl, his height is not as high as Wang Li's eyebrows, his waist is like a willow, his face is like a melon seed, his nose is slightly upturned, and his eyes are also quite charming, but it is a pity that a string of beards crawls all over his cheeks and chin, and his complexion is as dull and yellow as a walnut from the shell.

And the moment Shicai's beard approached, I thought that his mouth must be full of yellow teeth, but I didn't expect that when he grinned, there were two neat rows of shell teeth in his mouth, white as jade, and with a faint fragrance.

Wang Li only felt that his head was about to dizzy, forget it, it is most important to find Qian Yi and Fan A first, and it is better to put aside the other old and newcomers first.

Wang Li hurriedly pulled away and said: "Brother Huang, Brother Chen, today's matter Wang will definitely have a report in the future, but now Wang is still entangled in important matters, so he will take the first step!" ”

"Wait," Huang Ling hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Wang Li when he saw that he was leaving, "Brother Wang, is it because of the incident with the red maple crossing?" ”

"Huh? You got it? Wang Li looked at the two in surprise.

Huang Ling nodded and said, "Brother Wang, those Taiping thieves pretended to be gods and ghosts, and poisoned Li Shu and harmed the people, which is really not punishable. Although the two of us are not as strong as Brother Wang's martial arts, we can also help my brother! ”

"This?"

Wang Li looked at the two, the identity of these two people is suspicious and there is no deep friendship, it stands to reason that such a confidential matter really can't take the two of them there, but this Huang Ling gave himself a feeling, as if this person has a great dry cleaning with himself, and always feels that this person will not have any actions to hurt himself, although he has fought with him before, but Wang Li also knows that even if he is defeated, Huang Ling and the two will not kill the killer.

Looking up at the sky, the bright moon in the sky was already high in the middle of the sky, and the hour was approaching. I don't know if Qian Yi and Fan A have escaped from the clutches of Taiping Dao, it's just that, time waits for no one, so be it, even if these two people have any doubts, even if something happens, I believe that they will be able to take Fan A and Qian Yi away safely by their own means!

"Since Brother Huang ......"

"Brother Wang is still called a certain Huang Xiandi!" Huang Ling suddenly interrupted Wang Li's words, and his expression was a little twisted.

Wang Li was stunned for a while, Brother Huang Xian? Although I can't tell how old I am, but with a full beard and sallow skin, I feel embarrassed to call a Huang brother, and now I want to call me Huang Xiandi?

"Brother Wang!" Huang Ling stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Wang Li's eyes, his hands were as white as jade, faintly fragrant.

Wang Li is a spirit, and he is as good as a stream: "Since Brother Huang Xian is willing to help, Brother Fool naturally can't ask for it." However, this trip is full of dangers and the future is unknown, so please be cautious and cautious. ”

The maple forest is late, and the night wind is cold. In the blink of an eye, the three of them had vanished like ghosts, leaving only corpses and bloodstains all over the ground.

……

When it was near, the red maple was silent. Through the sparse moonlight, two figures could be faintly seen squatting on a small hill not far behind the village.

"Brother Fan, let's rest here for a while, wait for the adults, and observe the situation in the village by the way." Qian Yi lay on the rock, staring at the village intently, and said.

Fan A took a breath and said suspiciously: "Brother Qian, I remember that if it is not bad, you and the army should be new to this place, if we hide here, can the army find us?" ”

Qian Yi pointed to the front and his hiding place, nodded and said, "We have indeed not been here here." But adults once told us that if something is not harmonious in the course of carrying out a mission, we should protect our lives and find a place with a good view nearby, but we are good at observing from a distance in a hidden place.

Brother Fan, the terrain where we are is quite high, and it is only one hundred and sixty or seventy steps away from the village, and the wind and grass in the village can be seen at a glance. In addition, the forest is deep and the grass is lush, and we hide here, and the other party cannot easily detect it. If you see this place, you will definitely come too. ”

"Brother Qian really deserves to be a capable commander under the command of the army!" Fan A nodded, praised it, and suddenly pointed to the bottom of the mountain and asked, "Brother Qian, look, what is that?" ”

Looking in the direction pointed by Fan A's fingertips, I saw two figures emerging from the alley of the ancestral hall in the village, with high buns on the top of their heads, one of them was rickety, and the other was thin.

After about half a cup of tea, the door of the ancestral hall slowly opened again, and the rickety man seemed to be startled, and saw that the previous person had walked out, as if he was carrying an adult on his back, staggering between walks, and his steps were difficult.

Qian Yi looked at it carefully for a while, frowned and said: "According to what Tan Po said, there are two young adults in the ancestral hall, and these two should be the mother and wife of a young and middle-aged family." Presumably, the two wanted to take advantage of the fact that there was no one in the ancestral hall at this time and secretly hid their man back home. ”

"Well, according to Tan Po's words, it should indeed be so." Fan A nodded and asked, "However, since Tan Po is already involved in this case, why does Brother Qian believe what Tan Po said?" ”

Qian Yi looked at the ancestral hall and saw that the two were walking slowly, and explained: "Although it is known that Tan Po is involved in the case, there are many witnesses to this case, as long as we find a random witness, we can know the ins and outs of the whole thing, so Tan Po does not need to lie in this matter, otherwise it will only make us suspicious one step earlier."

Secondly, since he wants to deceive us here, he naturally has to tell us the truth, falsehood and falsehood, and truth in falsehood, so that we are less likely to be vigilant. Therefore, I believe that what Tan Po said before is not false. ”

"I see..."

Fan A was about to speak, and suddenly heard the crisp cuckoo song of "cuckoo, cuckoo" sounding in the forest, and his body had been pulled down by Qian Yi and dragged down the boulder, half-squatting and clinging to the stone, and then a string of "cooing" night owl sounds sounded in his ears, interrupting the cuckoo call.

In an instant, several sounds of clothes breaking through the air came from the side, and I saw three figures rushing straight to him, and the leader was already squatting on the stone, and called softly: "Qian Yi, come out, it's me!" ”

"Your Excellency!"

Qian Yi had already pulled Fan A to stand up, with a hint of doubt on his face, and two embroidered men stood behind Wang Li, but there was no trace of his Tongze Sun Cai.

"These two are Huang Ling and Chen Poyu, and Sun Cai is the fire banner envoy of the Taiping Dao Mountain Gate, and I will tell you the details later." Wang Li nodded and apologized to Fan A, "Today's incident has dragged Brother Fan down, and I ask Brother Fan to forgive me!" ”

"Sun is a thief in the Taiping Dao?" Qian Yi looked at it carefully, and saw that Wang Li had a piece of clothing wrapped around his back and left arm, and there was a trace of blood on the placket, and exclaimed, "My lord, are you okay?" ”

Wang Li nodded, shook his arm, and said, "It's okay, what did you find here?" You can be specific. ”

"This..."Qian Yi glanced at Huang Ling and Chen Poyu, approached Wang Li and asked in a low voice, "My lord, are these two people credible?" ”

Before the words fell, he heard a soft hum, and an object broke the wind, Wang Li pulled Qian Yi over, and when he reached out, he had already grabbed the object in his hand.

Spread out and look, it is actually a bronze medal, the card is engraved with two things, intertwined with each other, the horns are like a deer, the head is like a camel, the eyes are like a rabbit, the body is like a snake, the belly is like a mirage, the scales are like a fish, the claws are like an eagle, the palm is like a tiger, the ears are like a cow, and the two long whiskers next to the mouth are actually two yellow dragons. The double dragon glared angrily, and opened its fierce mouth towards each other, and a pearl arched in it.

There are four big characters engraved on the pearl: 'Straight to embroidered clothes', vigorous and powerful!
