Verse 26: The first foil to death
The end of July is the time of the scorching heat. It's only about eight o'clock in the morning, and the sun is already scorching. Look around. The green leaves hang low. The dog opened its mouth wide, stretched out its tongue, and lay on the ground listlessly panting. People don't move, and they sweat all over. Only the cicadas hid in the trees and sang fearlessly and fearlessly.
The dazzling sunlight mercilessly shrouded an ordinary mountain village with 100 households in Jingxiang.
Outside the village, in the shade of the hidden green willows, there were four war horses, with bags and swords.
There were four men standing beside the horses.
A short-sleeved shirt with a round neck and linen, long pants, and strappy black leather sandals.
Among them, the unusually majestic man wore a straw hat like a top hat, and his face was cleanly shaved and covered in dark gray.
The other two young men were both dressed in black. The tall one had a neck-length bunch of hair visible from the back of his straw hat. The slightly shorter body looks extraordinarily strong, with a blue void bald head, and is fanning the wind with a straw hat.
The shortest boy was dressed in dark blue, cream gray trousers, light blue silk wrapped around his head, and embroidered with a white tiger. The white tiger's head is above the forehead, and the front paws are just on both sides of the head.
In this scene, you would think that a fashion star participated in a costume martial arts drama in a quaint mountain village.
There was a village restaurant in front, but the four of them didn't wash their faces, sat down leisurely and drank a cup to cool off, just standing here dry and hot, and behaving a little stupidly.
There are even more stupid people.
Under the sun.
There were two or three hundred shirtless men at the entrance of the village, armed with knives, guns, sticks, dung forks, hoes, and even lined up in a military formation. They are clearly guarding their homeland.
One hundred and ten meters away on the opposite side are seventy or eighty men, although there are few people, but they are younger and hardcovered, they are all real weapons, there are knives and guns, and homemade bows and arrows, the team is scattered, but the fierce momentum is not known how many times higher than the opponent with more people. Apparently a skilled robber who came to rob and commit murder.
There were three war horsemen in the middle, all of whom were not very old, one against two, and there were still many robbers.
The two bandit leaders, one is a burly man with a black and red face with a thick beard, who looks like a demon reincarnated in the world, carrying two large iron bars, which is called a double hammer and iron.
In the eyes of the young man watching from afar, it was a large shoddy iron bar.
The other is much more delicate, with heroic eyebrows, a bow and arrows hanging in front of the horse, and a long knife in his hand.
The two stupid birds stood in the scorching sun, as if they were competing to see who was more resistant to the sun.
After a stalemate for a while, the demon bandit leader couldn't bear it anymore and shouted: "Du Cunzheng, our brothers praise you as a true hero, and this is the third time I have come to invite you to join the gang as the boss." Liu Bei looked at what it was, and Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain. We are so sincere, why are you not tempted? ”
Nadu Cunzheng has a slight beard on his face, his appearance is square and majestic, his body is tall and majestic, and he is holding a snake spear, which seems to be made of all iron, and it weighs dozens of catties.
He wiped his sweat and smiled: "Two, you came to my village to rob, and you want to rob even people." Is this called sincerity? ”
The leader of the Qingxiu robbers held his knife and hugged his fist at Du Cunzheng: "Brother Du, your Du Liucun is blocked at the foot of my Mulan Mountain, if it weren't for your hero, how could we let it survive to this day?" ”
"We live so closely, we are not enemies, we should naturally be a family. Otherwise, both sides will not have a good time. It is the combination that benefits both sides, and the division loses both. ”
"Brother Du, look at it, a Huashi gang scourge has caused Jiangnan to wail, how long has it been going on? In a few years, will we grass people still have a way to live?
There is a good life, who is willing to be a robber to live a life of licking blood from the knife edge and worrying about it. The government forced the people to rebel, and they had to rebel.
Brother Du is such a hero, unwilling to be humiliated and bullied, I see that you will definitely take this path sooner or later. Since sooner or later you have to rebel, why not start earlier?
If we form the Three Heroes of Mulan, lay a foundation as soon as possible, strengthen our power, and make a name, with your and my skills, we will definitely be able to break out a way of life and prosperity. ”
"I have a heartfelt word. Please think twice. ”
The evil ghost leader followed: "Yes, Boss Du is a hundred times smarter than me, I can figure it out." You've figured it out in the blink of an eye. Let's be righteous like Liu Guanzhang, and then catch Zhuge Liang as a military advisor, and share wealth and happiness. Stop grinding. Good morning. Looking at my sunburn, my head is confused. ”
The two sides couldn't talk together, and the wicked man was annoyed: "Please can't do it, let's catch you up the mountain and see that you never obey." "Rush forward and do it.
Du Cunzheng smiled: "You have to have that skill." ”
The Qingxiu leader was obviously not worried about the evil brothers, and immediately urged the horse to help in the battle. Suddenly, the three horsemen were killed in one place. War horses circling. One-on-two. The fight was thrilling and intense.
The young man in the distance looked at it for a while, and smiled at the majestic man: "Master, these three people are fierce enough." The martial arts are not bad, each has its own strengths, at least they all have a solid foundation. ”
The majestic man did not squeak, but only watched the battle quietly.
The young man smiled again: "Master, Du Cunzheng's martial arts, why do I look so familiar?" He is much better than the two bandit leaders combined. They fought fiercely, but they didn't really kill. A robber is not a robber. Anti-thieves are not like anti-thieves, they all have a sense of proportion. Otherwise, with Du Cunzheng's swift and practical spear technique, he would have picked the opponent a long time ago. ”
The boy is naturally Zhao Yue. The two men in black are naturally Lu Tie Rhino and Lu Tie Niu.
The nameless old man snorted: "Little doll, there is a lot of nonsense, it's not enough for you to see that there is excitement?." ”
As he spoke, his eyes did not shift in the slightest direction.
Zhao Yue grinned and said, "I'm just curious." This Du Cun is fortunate to be favored by you, how long did your old man fool him before abandoning him? And wow, how many good seedlings have you abandoned? ”
When the big-faced old man heard this, his rare old face was slightly red.
Just as Zhao Yue said.
This Du Yan has a great talent for martial arts, and is stable and reliable, but unfortunately he was more than ten years old when he met it, and he couldn't practice the core magic method of this discipline, and he taught it for more than a year, and it was fresh enough, so he still abandoned it.
He finally turned his face and glared at Zhao Yue: "Doll, the master sees that you have itchy skin." ”
After a pause, he snorted again, his voice was much quieter, probably only Zhao Yue beside him could hear it.
"Stinky boy, the master sees that you are anxious about the lack of generals, so you don't have any favorite scientific research, I am afraid that you will be in a hurry and break the inheritance of this sect, so I want to help you. Worked tirelessly to come here. You kid still talks cool things. I really don't know how to respect the elderly."
Confused and followed the master here, Zhao Yue saw the three of them immediately, and he had already understood the purpose of the master and his own south, and his heart warmed, knowing that the master was making big changes and big concessions in order to support his dream, but he grinned again: "Okay, master." I can see their abilities. You've got the bottom of it. On a hot day, they were tired. It's uncomfortable for us to stand stupidly, don't we? ”
Lao Dao's throat squirmed, he should be thirsty, and he muttered: "Calling around, there is nothing new." Boring. ”
Waving his hand, "Go ahead." ”
Zhao Yue turned over and ran over and shouted, "Hey, on such a hot day, aren't you thirsty?" ”
The three people who were fighting were all closed their hands when they heard the sound, and they all looked this way after they separated.
Nadu Village was seeing the "weird" costumes of the four people, and was slightly stunned at first, and when he saw the majestic and old Taoist appearance, he suddenly shouted in surprise: "Teacher?!" ”
Urging the horse to rush straight over, completely ignoring Zhao Yue's existence.
Zhao Yue didn't care, and grinned at the two bandit leaders: "Two good men." My name is Zhao Yue, from Zhaojiazhuang, Yanshan, Cangzhou. Accompany the master to find someone today. Found it, including both of you. If I'm not mistaken, you're Wei He. You are Yutai. They are all rare heroes in the land of Jingxiang. ”
Hand on pergola, "This day should be a good time to swim and drink with my brothers." If you don't dislike it, my senior brother, oh, Du Village is inviting you to the village to escape the heat, how about it? ”
As soon as Yu Tai heard about drinking, he immediately licked his lips that were a little dry, and looked at Zhao Yue, his vicious gaze turned slightly soft.
Wei He looked at Zhao Yue repeatedly, and suddenly asked, "You are the younger brother of Wen Chengbo, who created the pinyin dictionary?" ”
"No, exactly."
The evil man who realized it later screamed and shouted: "Oh, I said how can I see this little brother so pleasing to the eye, my feelings are the younger brother of the little saint." ”
"Oh, speaking of which, my poor man can read and write, and it's all thanks to the dictionary. Your brother is capable, smart, and has done great things, and he is my benefactor. The official heard that he was also doing the right thing, that is, he patted the dog emperor on the back, so that I couldn't look down on it. You said that your brother was by the Dog Emperor's side all day long, so why didn't you persuade him to harm people less?"
This devil-like man is still a chatter?
Zhao Yue was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but giggle, laughing so much that he was confused, and stared at Zhao Yue.
"Brother Yutai is heroic and bold, and he is quick to talk, I like it."
"Oh-"
Yu Tai suddenly realized, nodded his head and smirked: "It's right to like me." Don't look at me as fierce, but my heart is very good. Grow up so big and never bully good people casually"
Then you're bullying good guys, aren't you?
Zhao Yue couldn't help but laugh again, seeing that Wei He was slightly unhappy, but the corners of his mouth also showed a trace of laugh lines, it is estimated that he is familiar with the characteristics of his brothers, and sometimes he can't smile bitterly, and now he doesn't know what to say.
Holding back his laughter, Zhao Yue wiped his sweat.
"Two elder brothers, you see, my master and brother have entered the village. The villagers of the village also dispersed. Shall we go into the village and talk coolly? ”
Yu Tai immediately nodded: "Yes, don't dry people in the sun." Drink and go. Oh, I know that Du Cun is a man, and I can't admire my ability. It's just that we've never drunk together. I don't know if he's my opponent. Xiao Zhao, let me tell you, my amount of alcohol"
In the rambling of the chattering evil man, the robbers all entered the village.
