Chapter 59: Under the Cover Mountain
Tong Zhibai doesn't know if this person is Cheng Zhigang, if it is Cheng Zhigang, he has already captured two brothers, and it is enough to save face. If he continues to fight, if he wins, Cheng Zhigang will lose face, and I am afraid that Peng Xianwu will not look good in the future. If you lose, the first half of the day will be in vain.
So he sat on the horse and bowed his hand and said, "The one who came is ......."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Tong Qiyi take the lead and rushed out again. shouted: "The person was captured by your seventh master, don't talk about it if you kid has the ability, if you have any tricks, use it!" β
This seventh brother is really reckless, as long as there is a fight, it is like a chicken blood, and everything he says is good to listen to the orders of the eldest brother? Tong Zhibai was about to say something to stop it, but the two of them were already fighting together.
This Sai Lu Bu was unceremoniously, holding Fang Tian's halberd and making a move "Dragon Battle in the Wild", stabbing Tong Qimian Gate. This move was majestic, with the sound of thunder, and in an instant, the wind and clouds changed color, and the sand and dust were everywhere.
Tong Zhibai saw that this move was fierce, and he couldn't help but be secretly worried about Tong Qi. Throughout the ages, most of the people who used Fang Tian's halberd as weapons were top masters, because making halberds not only required infinite strength, but also superb skills. Generally speaking, when encountering a halberd, you must be cautious when using it.
Tong Laoqi was just in his twenties, which was the age when the newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and when he saw that this halberd was extraordinary, he immediately made a move "Danfeng Chaoyang", ignoring the stabbing halberd, and the tip of the gun pointed directly at the opponent's arm.
This seemingly lose-lose style of play is actually shrewd, making full use of the spear's dexterity and length. If Serub didn't make a move, the halberd had not yet arrived, and his arm was sent to the tip of the spear.
This Selu Bu is very good, when the tip of the gun is about to arrive, he suddenly changes his move, a move "meteor catches the moon", sweeping Tong Qi's waist, this move is to defend as an attack, which can not only block the opponent's spear, but also give full play to the advantage that the halberd can be hooked.
Tong Qi lifted his spirits and used a trick "Taigong rowing", using the unique skills of the Tong family's marksmanship, the gun is like a snake, which is dazzling. When the guns and halberds intersect, make the skillful gun stick against the halberd and slide towards the opponent's hands holding the halberd.
If this trick is successful, Serub will either lose his halberd or waste his hands.
Serub hurriedly used a trick to "push the door and look at the moon" and swung the spear away.
For a while, the fight was quite indistinguishable, and both of them were secretly shocked: this person is so good!
Seeing this, Tong Zhibai's mind was a little calm, it seems that the two are on par in martial arts, and it is not easy for anyone who wants to hurt the other party. In the blink of an eye, the two of them have gone back and forth for more than fifty moves.
Tong Zhibai was about to shout to stop, but he saw Sai Lu Bu make a false move, jumped out of the circle, and shouted: "You kid, where did you learn the Tong family's marksmanship?" β
Hehe, this kid is quite knowledgeable. Tong Qi replied: "You kid will fight when he comes up, and you don't ask what Lao Tzu's surname is!" Lao Tzu is your Seventh Master! β
Tong Zhibai hurriedly shouted: "Old Seven, don't be rude!" β
"Excuse me, but the Seven Heroes of the Tong Family have arrived?" Serib hurriedly bowed.
"How dare the Tong brothers call themselves the Seven Heroes!" Tong Zhibai said humbly, and continued: "I don't know if the virtuous brother and Cheng Zhigang of Golden Turtle Mountain know each other?" β
"The little brother is Cheng Zhigang."
You should have reported your name earlier, you have to learn from the heroes of the green forest, and give some unobtrusive nicknames, Tong Zhibai couldn't help but feel very funny.
I only heard Cheng Zhigang continue: "The younger brother once heard Brother Peng Xianwu talk about that the seven heroes of the Tong family are all skilled in marksmanship, righteous and cloudy, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation!" β
"Brother Xian has won the award, but Tong Mou is offended today, please forgive me!" Tong Zhibai waved behind him and ordered someone to untie Li Jie and Daniel Zhang.
Everyone dismounted one after another, and Tong Zhibai introduced the brothers to Cheng Zhigang one by one. Under Cheng Zhigang's strong invitation, the group entered the cottage.
After drinking and eating, everyone went to rest, leaving only the Tong brothers and Cheng Zhigang, Li Jie, and Daniel Zhang. A few people talked about marksmanship, martial arts and chivalry. Several people have high and low skills and depth of knowledge, but they are all jealous and hateful men, so the more they talk, the more speculative they are.
Tong Zhibai looked at Cheng Zhigang and asked with doubts: "I see that the virtuous brother is skilled and loyal, but how can he be willing to fall into the grass here?" β
Cheng Zhigang was ashamed and said: "Don't hide it from my brother, the younger brother ate a life lawsuit in Jingzhou in the early years, and fled to Shuzhong, not wanting to meet the two brothers Li Jie and Daniel Zhang here." β
Li Jie and Daniel Zhang were full of embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Our two martial arts are low, leaving Brother Cheng to support the faΓ§ade." β
"Foolish brother, look at your cottage, the mountain is not very high, the terrain is not dangerous, if the government comes to clean up, how can you resist?" Tong Zhibai was puzzled, although the mountains here are undulating, there is no danger to defend after all, how can he withstand the conscription and suppression of officers and soldiers?
Cheng Zhigang laughed and said, "Brother doesn't know, except for the three of us brothers here, the rest are all poor farmers around. Once the government clears up, we will be broken into pieces and hidden among the villagers, but where will they find them? At most, these dilapidated houses were burned. β
"Moreover, although our brothers rob houses and houses here, they do not rob officials, pedestrians, small merchants and hawkers, but only big merchants. The loss of goods is nothing to large merchants, and it will not be impossible to survive. Let's call robbing the rich and helping the poor! β
The fifth Tong Shining pursed his lips, and said in his heart If we let you succeed in the robbery, we are afraid that we will not be able to live, so we can only go back to sell tofu to pay off our debts.
Tong Zhibai said with a smile: "Brother Xian, big merchants also have the difficulties of big merchants!" Let's bet on this dart game, but we bet on all the net worth. Brother Fool just doesn't understand, how does Brother Xian value our goods? β
Daniel Zhang said with a smile: "In the inn in Taiping Town, has the eldest brother ever seen the younger brother?" β
Everyone suddenly couldn't help laughing.
Cheng Zhigang said: "Next time, I have to ask the details, select those who are rich and unkind, and rob him cleanly." β
The next day, the dart team set off, and Tong Zhibai left fifty taels of silver, but Cheng Zhigang insisted that he would not accept it. Tong Zhibai said: "I see that the virtuous brother is struggling to maintain it here, and it is not a long-term solution after all, it is better to dismiss the minions and go with the brother!" β
Although Cheng Zhigang has a little bit of intentions, but for such a big event, how can he make a decision in just a few words? Cheng Zhigang pondered for a moment and said, "Thank you for the kindness of the eldest brother, if the eldest brother passes by here on his return journey in the future, the younger brother and the eldest brother will discuss it again." β
The dart team went out of Jingui Mountain, all the way to Puci County.
Entering the boundary of Puci land, the mountain is getting higher and higher, the different peaks of the mountains protrude from each other, every time the mountain road, the strange rocks on both sides of the road are craggy, the shapes are different, some are like lions and tigers, some are like human shapes, it is really beautiful.
At the narrowest part of the road, these strange stones are even more endless, and some of them are like fairies dancing with a slight step, and the postures are myriad; Some are like enchanting kabuki dancing hotly, showing a charming figure.
While hurrying, the group admired the strange stone changes, and couldn't help but admire the magic of creation, and some people even indulged in it, imitating the posture of the stone statue and dancing.
"Phew!"
A burst of drinking made everyone wake up in the chaos of stones. I saw a team of people blocking the road, and the first one immediately crossed the gun, looking arrogant.
Why do bandits play with guns so much? The main thing is that the spear is lethal, and more importantly, it is iron-saving, because iron is very expensive in this era.
It is rumored that Cao Cao spent 10,000 gold to create two swords, one is called Yitian and the other is Qingyu. This Qingyu sword was taken away by Zhao Yun at Changban Slope.
These two swords are said to be sharpened like clay, which is nothing more than a novelist's interpretation. Think about it, even if it is a log, how much effort does it take to split it into two pieces with a single knife? In fact, this sword is also a two-mouthed sword made of good steel that has been repeatedly folded, which shows how expensive iron was at that time.
However, more than 200 years have passed, and the output of steel has not increased much, so ordinary people are still reluctant to use iron to make a big knife.
So regardless of whether the marksmanship is good or not, the spear has almost become a must-have for bandits.
I saw this thief point his spear and shouted: "I planted this tree, I drove this road, I want to fight this passing, and leave the money to buy the road!" If you know each other, leave the goods and run for your life! β
Why is it so chaotic out of Shu County, is this the rhythm of chaos in the world? Why is it so hard to do business?
Tong Qiyi took the lead, crossed the convoy to the front of the formation, and said with a smile: "Leave it to you, do you have the life to take it?" β
"Boy, don't be rampant, eat me a shot!" The bandit took Tong Zi's bow with a spear.
Tong Qi swung his spear and pulled out a big spear flower to cover several key points on the opponent's chest. The bandit saw that Tong Qi's spear was messy, and he didn't know where to stab, and was about to turn his horse to dodge, but he was stabbed in the left shoulder by Tong Qiyi's shot, and he was immediately drenched in blood, so he had to turn his horse's head and flee.
Seeing this, all the minions scattered and fled. Tong Qi couldn't help laughing, just with this three-legged cat kung fu, he still wants to rob the road? Fateful, right?
Everyone urged the horses forward, and after walking not far, they saw a big mountain in front of them, like a box cover, and the mountain was majestic, blocking the way. The official road winds and winds past the foot of the mountain.
Tong Zhibai saw this mountain seems to be familiar, he had been here in his early years, and knew that this mountain is called Box Gai Mountain, because of the dangerous terrain, there are often strong people in the mountain, so he reminded everyone to be extra careful on the road.
As soon as I arrived at the foot of the mountain, more than 100 people blocked the way.
The first person was thin and small, but he had a calm bearing and a master's demeanor. I saw this person standing in the middle of the road with a gun, shouting at the dart team: "Who is coming, so bold that he dared to injure my brother in the Valley of the Phantom Stone!" β
Seeing this, Tong Qi was eager to try, and he wanted to come forward to fight again. The fifth Tong Shining thought to himself, he couldn't let the seventh charge in front everywhere, and he watched the excitement in the back.
So he slapped his horse and shouted, "Who are you?" What a bold man, he dared to block his grandfather's way! β
The thin man laughed and said, "It's a joke, if you want to cross the mountain from here, you don't inquire." Say my name, I'm afraid to scare your dog's guts. Grandpa, I am also a dragon who has risen to the top of the river, and the one behind me is the Panshan Leopard Zhou Li. β
It's not good to learn anything, and it's time to learn to be nicknamed by others. With the precedent of the yellow-faced Tai Sui and the black wind fox of Golden Turtle Mountain, Tong Shining couldn't help but laugh dumbly, and there were two more nicknames who pulled tiger skins, presumably just two straw bales.
Tong Shining pointed his spear at Gao Sheng and said, "Lao Tzu doesn't want to bother, you two miscellaneous pieces together!" β
