Tang Li stood on the bridge by the lake to practice swords, the stone pillar bridge railing was only three inches wide, and it had just rained, the bridge railing was extremely slippery, Tang Li liked to practice swords on the bridge barrier after each heavy rain.

As a master on the eighth floor, I like to practice swords on the circular slippery wet bridge railing, which is interesting, but it is far worse than the single-plank bridge of Nanke Waterfall.

At this moment, his steps were light, his sword light was wrapped in his body, and he walked his sword back and forth on the bridge railing freely, the sword aura was fierce, and from time to time the trees next to the bridge were cut off, and the lake by the bridge was hit several meters high by the sword qi.

Suddenly, he waved into the lake, and in a burst of explosions, the lake was hit ten meters high, from one end of the lake to the other, the lake was like a fountain springing, Tang Li kicked his feet, stepped into the water at a height of ten meters, and rolled in the air.

When the tip of the sword slashed through the water, there was a buzzing sound, and with a flick of the sword, a splash hit the willow tree on the shore of the lake, and the willow tree was pierced by the splash to form a hole.

The next moment, Tang Li stood on the surface of the lake, like a flat boat sliding backwards on one foot, sliding to the other end of the shore, and a backflip turned onto the shore.

He stood and wiped the water splashed on his face, then wiped his sword dry with a handkerchief and placed it in its sheath.

Liu Xiaoran sat aside and set up chess, and at the same time poured him a glass of water, Tang Li sat opposite and played chess seriously with Liu Xiaoran.

Liu Xiaoran opened the fan and said, "Your chess skills have improved a lot, but your martial arts are the same as before." ”

Tang Li touched the green beard on his chin and smiled: "I'm old, my body is not as backward as my martial arts back then, my body is not good, I feel like I can't go up this practice." ”

Liu Xiaoran held the horse and paused and said: "Horse stepping on the sun, I haven't played chess for a long time, you see that my head forgets quickly." ”

Tang Li said: "The last time I played chess was Liu Dan's birthday, and I haven't played it for a long time since then." ”

Speaking of Liu Dan, Liu Xiaoran was a little heartbroken, and it was useless to think about it now, Liu Xiaoran shook his head and said: "Life is impermanent, there is wine today and drunk today, I don't know if you are still alive in the next moment, but Tang Li, you may only be able to follow me in this life, when you can't go back to the rivers and lakes, don't blame me." ”

"Lord Wang, you're laughing!" Tang Li thought for a while, "I have one thing to tell you, I heard from my friends in the rivers and lakes that there was a female bandit in the Nanke area recently, who instantly defeated the major bandits in the mountains, and spent a lot of money to recruit troops and buy weapons in the south. ”

Liu Xiaoran said curiously: "In the area where Nanke San doesn't care, it is normal for bandits to dominate, and many businessmen dare not pass by there, but I heard that those bandits only dare not hurt Nankezhong." ”

"Lord Wang, I wonder, the Nanke bandits have always been well water and do not interfere with river water, and they swallow the oil and water they robbed, how did a woman come out all of a sudden and defeat many bandits to rule one side?"

"It's normal for women not to shave their eyebrows. ”

Tang Li nodded when he heard this, saying that, with his own study in Nanke for a long time, he knew the bandits in that area very well, they were all agreed, the well water did not interfere with the river water, and he copied as many guys as he copied.

Don't think that these bandits are bandits by nature, and it's normal to have no credibility when they speak, but in fact, these bandits are more trustworthy than those so-called courtiers in the palace.

Even if two mountain bandits get a message at the same time, which merchants want to pass through Nanke, it is a first-come, first-served rule, and if you can't grab it, you can only think you're unlucky, and you will definitely not attack another mountain because you can't grab it.

Suddenly attacked by a woman in an instant, this is not at all in line with the bandit style in Nanyan's area, the person who came may be bandits from other places, but why did she suddenly take down the bandits in Nanke's area?

This made Tang Li very curious.

The two played five chess games, Tang Li won two and Liu Xiaoran won three, and Liu Xiaoran was not too happy to win and continued to want to play a few games.

Liu Xiaoran suddenly smiled and asked, "Recently, over there in the Northern Wilderness, how about you asking your Jianghu brothers to inquire about the situation?

Tang Li carried the blue wide sleeves for fear that the cuffs would mess up the chess pieces, and said indifferently: "Back to the prince, the Northern Wilderness still doesn't let people go in and out, and there is not even a shadow of a businessman, and I sent a lot of people who can't get in." ”

Liu Xiaoran was stunned and wondered: "No, the Northern Wilderness is so poor, why do businessmen go south to do business, is it impossible to farm? ”

"Wait! I seem to have heard that the Simon soldiers have recently gone north. Tang Lifang remembered the words of a Jianghu brother who came back from selling tea in Ximang

Liu Xiaoran hurriedly put down the chess pieces and had a premonition, and knocked his head with a folding fan, he was not a cultivator who knew the heavens and would not calculate, he would only use his head to calculate, and came to two conclusions, one was that Ximang attacked the Northern Wilderness, and the other was that the Ximang people knew that the Yuelong North Daokou had withdrawn their troops and cooperated with the Northern Wilderness to take advantage of the current Yuelong chaos to attack it

So Liu Xiaoran hurriedly said: "Tang Li, tell me, Ximang goes north to attack the Northern Wilderness or does he want to cooperate with the Northern Wilderness to attack the Moon Dragon?"

"Attack the Moon Dragon. Tang Li's tone was firm and without hesitation, "If you attack the Northern Wilderness, why do the people of the Northern Wilderness blockade, do they lock it up and wait for death? ”

Liu Xiaoran nodded, which made him feel nervous, the population of Ximang is more than his own country, and there are very many soldiers, if he encounters elite soldiers, he is unstoppable, plus those outlaws in the Northern Wilderness, they are very brave, if they are out of the north pass of the wind department, they will spread and attack the city, and if they are scattered to fight now, they will only be defeated.

As long as the north pass is broken, it will not be long before Yueyang City can be hit, and once Yueyang City is captured by them, Yuelong will be finished.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoran had no intention of playing chess, the war was imminent, and he must call on the moon dragon world to take the initiative to join the army to protect his family and defend the country.

Liu Xiaoran held the shogi in his hand and said slowly: "No, Qi Hongtian must go back to the north crossing to guard." ”

Tang Li sighed and said, "Qi Hongtian didn't see satisfactory benefits when he came back this time, he won't leave." ”

"As long as he is willing to go north to block Ximang and the Northern Wilderness, let him be the emperor, and keep my Yuelong Jiangshan, what's wrong. ”

Tang Li was shocked, put down the Xiangzi chess and said: "Lord Wang, you will die in this way, he will never keep the Liu family as the emperor, it is not worth it, at this time you should talk to the great master, see how they treat this matter, we are making careful plans." ”

"I think that Yuelong Jiangshan is in the hands of Qi Hongtian, which is stronger than in the hands of Yan Lianyun, Yan Lianyun Nanyan people, if it falls into her hands, it will only be changed to the word Nanyan. ”

"Lord Wang, I will go and gather all the brothers in the rivers and lakes, ready to fight at any time, as long as you order, I will fight anyone. ”

Liu Xiaoran looked at Tang Li and said gratefully: "It's good to have you in this life, but it's a pity that I treated you badly, so I'll do it." ”

Subsequently, the two continued to play chess, and the game was not decided for a long time, and finally the two became impatient and abandoned the chess and left.
