Volume 1: Beauty Tears Chapter 28: Horizontal swords, vertical swords, and snow flying
In the afternoon, a total of thirteen horsemen from Peach Blossom Village galloped in armor and walked into the village to look at a path. The white smoke coming out of the chimneys of every house, many people walking on the road. Seeing that the border troops in armor retreated one after another, the people who appeared this time were different. Although the saber was eighteen last time, it was not so deep, and Liu Zhixing slowly walked towards a farmhouse yard in front. As everyone knows, there is a woman standing behind her, just standing at the door of the house and watching the young man pass by.
The older man looked at the little sister's eyes and shook his head slightly, put one hand on Xiuwen's shoulder and said, "Go back." β
"Big brother." The man didn't know what to say, knowing which boy he liked on a tall horse. The three months in Peach Blossom Village also have some understanding of teenagers, and they can get by in the world, but they are born with a kind of arrogance. That time, I wanted to help my little sister cancel the marriage contract, and from that day on, it was clear that although my little sister was good-looking, what Liu Zhixing said should be a lie. How can a wealthy son treat a peasant girl sincerely, not to mention that everyone can see that Liu Zhixing likes Yulian, can he let his little sister go to be a concubine for others.
Xiuwen turned around and walked into the courtyard, looking back from time to time at the figure that had already been blocked by the sergeant behind him. I was disappointed in my heart, just take a look, and it's good to take a look.
Approaching the courtyard, Liu Zhixing turned over and dismounted, approached the courtyard gate, and looked at the girl sitting on the swing stupidly. Father Ji had just drunk a glass of sake, and Wen Xiaoming suddenly got up and looked at Lu Lin who was sitting on horseback instead of Liu Zhixing. There was a kind of heat in his eyes, and he hadn't moved his muscles and bones for a long time. Surprisingly, Wen Xiaoming put down his wine glass and entered the house very interestingly.
Slowly walked into the courtyard and said, "Uncle Ji, are you feeling better?" β
He looked like he was forty years old, with gray hair and a withered face. Last time, he was a sturdy man, but now he is more like an old man in his fifties. Wanting to get up, Liu Zhixing walked a few steps quickly, stretched out his hand to help Ji's father and said, "Just sit, be careful of hurting your body." β
Yulian, who stopped suddenly, looked at the man in front of her, who was both familiar and unfamiliar, and was very familiar with Liu Zhixing. I've seen it in armor, but it seems that Liu Zhixing seems to have changed as a different person. Where is it still like a teenager who can't swing, I don't know what to say after a few months, but I just said: "You're here." β
Liu Zhixing helped Ji's father stand up, looked at the girl and said, "I'm here." β
When he was injured, he seemed to figure it out, and he didn't seem to stop it. obviously knows that her daughter has a marriage contract with the Zhang family, but her daughter obviously prefers Liu Zhixing, who has known her for less than a year. He picked up the cane and said, "You talk, it's a little cold outside, I'll go back to the house first." β
Just as he was about to go back to the house with a cane, Wen Xiaoming walked out with a short sword, walked over in a few steps, helped Ji's father and said, "Uncle Ji, slow down." β
Liu Zhixing didn't know when this young man, who had only met once, had such a good relationship with Ji's father, but he saw that Wen Xiaoming didn't look at Yulian and just supported Ji's father. The two of them look more like father and son, and Wen Xiaoming doesn't look flattering. Everything is so natural, even more reassuring than yourself. At this time, there was only Yulian in his eyes, and Liu Zhixing, who had not been active for a long time, didn't know what to say for a while.
Unexpectedly, Wen Xiaoming helped Ji's father to glance at Lu Lin, who was outside, and shouted, "Brother Lu, wait a minute." β
Where did Lu Lin, who was riding on a horse, know what Wen Xiaoming wanted to do, and Chu Yang beside him asked, "Do you know that kid." β
Lu Lin said lightly: "I know that I have killed people together." β
Naturally, it seemed that there was nothing in Lu Lin's eyes, so much so that Chu Yang and many people were a little surprised. It is not a person in the army, let alone killing the enemy, and the law of Daliang clearly states that the murderer is guilty of death. I really wanted to ask what happened during Lu Lin's absence, but Lu Lin kept silent as if he had forgotten, and wanted to ask the general if he was not looking for a fight.
Liu Qing, who had always been unconvinced by Lu Lin, stepped forward a little and asked, "I can kill people with you Lu Lin, I think that kid's kung fu is not weak." "He looked eager to try.
But he didn't expect Lu Lin to say very politely: "Liu Qing advises you not to provoke him, you are not his opponent." There are no two moves under him. β
If it weren't for someone in the barracks who had seen Lu Lin's kung fu with their own eyes, no one would have dared to believe that there was such a master in the thirteenth battalion. In fact, among the twelve people, Lu Lin and Liu Zhixing walked the closest, and everyone thought that it was because Lu Lin's kung fu was the highest. The other person is the weak Chu Hanlin, although the thirteen people are not the smallest, they are the weakest, and even the youngest Gao Xiaolong can be put down one-on-one, so he didn't underestimate Chu Hanlin, and Chu Hanlin was more ruthless than anyone else in that rush.
Not to mention that it was okay, but now it made Liu Qing pay special attention to Wen Xiaoming, and helped Ji's father into the house and walked out with a sword. Liu Zhixing subconsciously glanced at it and found that there seemed to be only one person in the eyes of the young man, and that was Lu Lin who was riding a horse. Some didn't understand what Wen Xiaoming was going to do, Yulian looked at Liu Zhixing, who was puzzled, and said, "Xiao Ming should be going to Lu Lin to compete." β
Lu Lin also mentioned this young man many times when he returned to the barracks, and he spoke highly of martial arts. The name is also in my heart, more because of a strange man who lives in Yulian's house. He nodded lightly and said, "Nanjing is going to war again, Uncle Ji is not in good health, why don't you go to Taiping City with me." There are also people to take care of me at home, so you don't have to be so tired. β
Yulian shook her head lightly and said, "No need, it's good at home." Now that Xiao Ming is helping, I'm not very tired. Daddy's health is not good, Taiping City is so far away, and he still doesn't go. Actually, it's good here, and the folks are also free to come and help me. β
Looking at the serious Yulian Liu Zhixing had no choice but not to say anything, how could Yulian not know what situation she was in now. However, the army has changed its commander, and there is no usual freedom, and the 13th Battalion has been unable to get busy with the establishment for a long time. There were still some distressed and beloved women, and said: "Yulian, I will go back this time to meet what my father said, and I will come to marry you in the next year." β
Suddenly, Liu Zhixing said such a thing, and he said angrily: "Who is going to marry you." "Get up and leave. Liu Zhixing grabbed Yulian and said, "I'm serious, as long as you are willing, no one can stop you." β
Yulian looked up at Liu Zhixing's somewhat rough face, and the young man's eyes were very serious. Suddenly, hearing the neighing of a horse, Yulian watched Liu Qing be kicked off the horse by Wen Xiaoming. Under a burst of hearty laughter, Liu Qing got up and looked at the thin young man and said, "Good kung fu." β
Wen Xiaoming, who was thinking about making a sword, said politely: "It's over, Brother Lu's kung fu is not weak, and he is thinking about giving it a try." β
There was a kind of excitement in Lu Lin's eyes, and he had almost no opponents in the army. The generals with superb martial arts also disdained to fight with a little centurion, and Wen Xiaoming's swordsmanship was very rare among his peers. It's not that Lu Lin is proud, from the moment he walked out of the master's door, he was already the highest among the senior brothers, and the Liuhe Sword was the true inheritance of the master. Lu Zhaoming loves Lu Lin very much at a young age, and even has to be attentive to his own children. said to Wen Xiaoming: "Go to that place." The two of them had a heart, and instantly passed through the crowd and headed towards the peach forest.
The people who reacted had never seen Lu Lin's real sword, and the brave swordsmanship of the battlefield could not be brought into excellent play. Liu Qing, who was very unconvinced, first turned his horse's head and chased after the two, and the two Zheng Shuixin brothers followed. Eleven horses passed through the village, and there were many hoof prints on the flat snow.
Liu Zhixing was also very curious about how far Lu Lin's kung fu had become, and it was obvious that neither of them had really swordsmanship in the camp that time. I am still very curious about the Liuhe Sword, and I haven't seen the real Liuhe Sword on the rivers and lakes for a long time. Walking on the rivers and lakes, there are very few Liuhe swords, and there are more disciples whose martial arts are not very high. He took Yulian's hand and said, "Let's go and have a look." β
The girl nodded lightly and followed Liu Zhixing out of the house.
There is a wasteland not far from the peach forest, because a cliff near Niujiao Mountain is not suitable for farming. It is barren all year round, but after a snowfall, it is a different scene, a piece of snow-white and a little hard wood pierces the thick layer of snow, which is a bit special. The afternoon sun was a little reddish, and the white snow was faintly reddened.
Even if the eleven war horses galloped all the way out of the village, they were not as fast as the two of them, but when they arrived, they found that there were no footprints on the way. At this time, the swords came out together, and some jagged footprints on the snow could be faintly seen, and more were sword marks of different lengths. Liu Qing, who had always been unconvinced by Lu Lin, stared wide-eyed as the two of them rushed to the snow, looking at each other from a distance, attacking and defending each other in an orderly manner.
The youngest Gao Xiaolong was very envious, and suddenly the sword opened his throat and shouted, "Lu Lin killed him." β
Lu Lin, who was extremely fast with his sword, suddenly stepped on the snow and a very deep footprint appeared, and he jumped up, so one was three feet high. I saw that the young man's legs were rounded, and a semicircle appeared in the clean snow in an instant. The short sword was placed behind his back, and in the face of Lu Lin who fell from the sky, every sword was blocked without any mistake. A war knife kept chopping in the air, and it was incredible that Lu Lin hung in the air like that, and the knife never landed, which caused a burst of cheers from the soldiers on the horse. But I don't know how clever Wen Xiaoming's sword is, it is extremely difficult to just hold the square inch, and his feet just keep switching at the edge of the circle.
Just as Lu Lin stabbed Wen Xiaoming with a knife, he actually turned his straight body and stabbed a sword into the sky, and Lu Lin's knife was right against the center of the circle. In the blink of an eye, the two actually changed positions, and Wen Xiaoming stepped on the circle in Shanglu Lin. The clean snow was trampled in a mess by Lu Lin in less than a moment. Wen Xiaoming, who was hanging in the air, didn't have long to step on the snow. Sparks slid from the swords, and instead of being ruthless, the two of them actually smiled with satisfaction.
Liu Zhixing, who came slowly, said a lot along the way, but Yulian did not agree to go to Taiping City, and the others did not agree. In fact, Liu Zhixing is still a little jealous of Zhang Bai, who is now settled in Taiping City, and when it comes to it, Zhang Bai is Yulian's rightful fiancΓ©. I had to stop talking about this, and asked a lot about Wen Xiaoming's affairs at home. was originally asked along the way, Yulian still said the words of the few months one by one, Liu Zhixing also had a good impression of the young man, if it wasn't for the young man, the father and daughter really didn't know how to spend that time. What's more, Yulian just thinks Wen Xiaoming is younger brother, and Liu Zhixing thinks it's good to have such a younger brother, at least Yulian looks very happy now.
walked to the side of everyone and watched the competition between the two, in Liu Zhixing's eyes, the swords of the two were extremely exciting. This is real martial arts, unlike in the military. At this time, I also thought of why Lu Lin said that he was not Wen Xiaoming's opponent, such superb martial arts seemed to come and go, if others were on the verge of life and death, one would be killed if he was not careful.
Listening to everyone's shouts, Liu Zhixing suddenly said: "Lu Lin has lost this time." β
Everyone looked at the general in surprise, and Zhang Han, who was upright and excited, said: "How could Lu Lin lose, it's not like that kid is defeated step by step." β
Liu Zhixing said: "Lu Lin is wearing dozens of catties of armor, there should be nothing, but Lu Lin has a knife in his hand instead of a sword. Usually the sword is different in the hand, not to mention the two masters who are good at making swords, a slight difference has already determined the outcome of the battle, not to mention the burden of Lu Lin's armor. β
Just after saying that, the white snowflakes were floating in the air, and Lu Lin and Wen Xiaoming galloped to each other and kept shooting. Liu Zhixing suddenly shouted, "Lu Lin, we should go." β
The two of them, who were almost full force, stopped at almost the same time, and Lu Lin said: "The next time Brother Wen meets, I won't lose again." β
Wen Xiaoming said with a smile: "The little brother is not a martial artist, if you make it a sword, who will win and who will lose." But next time I will only be stronger, and Wen Xiaoming's name can be heard everywhere in the entire rivers and lakes. β
The two looked at each other and smiled, and the falling snowflakes covered their clothes.
