As the gates of the Great Wei Imperial City were slowly opened, a series of neighing of horses suddenly sounded.

A group of knights in armor galloped out of the door.

"Click, click, click"

The sound of horses' hooves began to sound outside the imperial city one after another.

The knights urged their horses under their crotches and hurried in a certain direction on the outskirts of the city.

Dozens of iron hooves trampled mercilessly on the sand and gravel of the road, and in an instant there were clouds of dust in their path.

"Faster!"

Although the entire horse team was almost moving at full speed at this moment, one of the knights at the head seemed to be not enough, he shouted again and again, the whip in his hand flew up and down, and constantly whipped the war horse under his crotch, and in an instant he opened up a distance from everyone behind him.

Seeing the leader do this, the knights simply stopped caring about the physical strength of the war horse, and began to sprint forward with all their might.

In fact, it is very dangerous to ride like this in the densely populated city of Anyi, and the slightest failure to dodge is a sin of human life.

But these people obviously have no scruples in this regard, they are well-trained forbidden troops, the elite of the elite, and they have always cared about everything except the fulfillment of the emperor's order.

In their eyes, the lives of the people are just a mustard, and when it comes to the last resort, there is basically not much difference between stepping on a person's body and breaking a piece of sand and gravel on the side of the road.

Maybe that's why it's often said that it's better to be a peace dog than a troubled world.

Fortunately, these knights were extremely skilled in riding, and they were able to avoid pedestrians in time when they got in the way, so that no one could be killed.

However, the death penalty can be avoided and the living crime is inevitable, they went all the way, and they did not smash the melons, fruits and plums placed on the side of the road, which made the vendors who came out early in order to make a living complained, but even so they could only quietly watch these forbidden army masters gallop by, as for how to slander and curse later, that is already a later story......

———————————————————————————————————————

I walked down the street with the little brother in the water, and because he was injured, we walked very hard, often halfway through

On the way, I had to stop to rest, and before I knew it, the time was delayed.

Now I saw that the little brother was sweating profusely and his steps were vain, so I had to say helplessly again:

"That's not the way to go, little brother, let's find a place to rest for a while."

He was already out of breath, and when he heard me say this, he immediately nodded in agreement.

So we sat down at a tea stall on the side of the road.

These roadside tea stalls can be found almost everywhere in Anyi City.

All you need is a few benches, a few square tables, and a pot of coarse tea, and you can start trading.

Although the tea is poor and there are no snacks, it does provide a place for passers-by to rest.

As soon as we sat down, the man in black didn't know what to do, and quietly appeared beside us.

After casually asking the shopkeeper for a pot of tea, he said to the little brother:

"Young master, the guards at home are already on their way, and it won't be long before they can take the young master home. If you can still walk, we'll walk again in a while, and if you're really tired, it's okay to wait here. ”

Bodyguard? When I heard these two words, I was a little suspicious in my heart, and then I asked:

"Eh, hero, why didn't you just ask the guards to pick up the little brother in the cold house? Isn't that redundant? ”

The black-clad swordsman glanced at me with a foolish look.

"Wouldn't a large group of people suddenly appear in front of your house with suspicion? If it weren't for the idea that you wouldn't be involved in the future, how could the young master have walked so many roads in vain? Of course, this is all what the young master meant, if it is up to me to decide, hum. ”

After listening to his words, I suddenly felt a little more good for the little brother on the side.

I didn't expect that there was such a careful mind hidden under the gentle exterior, and I would have the safety of an outsider in my heart.

You must know that now is a troubled time, everyone is in danger, and it is not easy to be able to do this.

Seeing that the black-clothed swordsman was not speaking in a good tone, the little brother coughed a few times, and hurriedly waved his hand to stop him.

Turning to me, he chuckled softly:

"My guard is upright and offensive, so please don't mind."

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay."

I sneered and shook my head to show that I didn't mind.

It's not that I'm so open-minded, it's mainly that as soon as the little brother finished saying this, I felt a cold swish on my neck for no reason, and the whole person seemed to be surrounded by murderous aura.

Sneaking a glance at the black-clothed man beside him, he saw that his sword had been gently pushed out of the scabbard by his thumb......

The little brother didn't notice my strangeness at all, and continued to laugh:

"Last night, I was rescued by the grace of the princess, such a great grace is unforgettable, if I can get out of danger this time, I will definitely thank you one day."

As soon as these words came out, I suddenly came to the spirit, and the panic of Fang Cai was also thrown out of the clouds, this little brother once said that his father was an official in the court, combined with such a strong guard by his side, his father's official must be not small, so he said a heavy salute......

Hey, as the saying goes, people can't be rich or foreign, and horses don't eat night food and don't get fat.

I didn't expect that I, Xu Junwen, would finally turn over the salted fish!

"Hey, hey."

Thinking like this, my face was a little tense, and I started to giggle for a moment.

"Eun Gong? Eun Gong? Are you okay? ”

The little brother was startled by my sudden smile, thinking that I was too frightened and that something was wrong with my brain, so he hurriedly asked softly.

When he called me like this, I realized that I almost leaked my true face, so I immediately changed my righteous and awe-inspiring face, and said in a deep voice:

"Ahem, it's okay, it's okay, little brother doesn't need to be so polite, if you don't save yourself when you die, is it a gentleman's doing? Truth be told, I promise someone that money is like dung......."

"This little brother, how to get to the Great Wei Palace?"

I was halfway through my sentence when I was suddenly interrupted by a deep voice.

When I looked up, I saw a man dressed as a fisherman on the road not far from the table, walking slowly in the direction where we were, wearing a hat and a coat, and asking the little brother beside me for directions as he walked.

The little brother was still listening to me bragging, but when this man asked me so suddenly, he suddenly couldn't come back to his senses, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

The man came to the little brother in a few steps, stroked the hat, and instantly revealed a pair of cold eyes, and began to look the little brother in front of him up and down.

After a moment, he grinned:

"I'm so stupid, isn't the Great Wei Palace right in front of me?"

"Huh!"

As soon as these words came out, the black-clothed man who was watching coldly on the side suddenly drew his sword out of the sheath, and with a flick of his body, he blocked in front of the little brother, protecting him behind him.

The fisherman-like man smiled even more when he saw this, and he spoke with a little mockery:

"Quick Sword Xiao Bai? That's right, but I'm afraid it's hard to stop me on your own. ”

Xiao Bai, the black-clothed hero, didn't talk much nonsense, but saw his figure twisted, shook the long sword in his hand, and stabbed straight at the fisherman's chest.

This sword castrated extremely fast, like thunder, and in the blink of an eye, it came to the man.

The man didn't panic, and took out two long knives from his coat as if he was juggling, and placed them across his chest, only listening to the crisp sound of the "bell", and the two sides each took a few steps back and reopened the distance.

Xiao Bai stood still and looked a little dignified, and it could be seen from the trembling long sword in his hand at the moment that he didn't take much advantage of Fang Cai's sword.

Xiao Bai slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, looked directly at the man in front of him, and asked:

"Who are you?"

"Xiao Bai, I haven't seen you for many years, and your sword is a little faster."

The man in the lily coat did not answer, but praised Xiao Bai, and as he spoke, he took off his hat, revealing a hideous face, only to see a long scar running through his entire cheek, like a wriggling earthworm.

After seeing this man's face clearly, Xiao Bai showed a surprised expression for the first time, and he blurted out:

Qiu Hong........ It's you? ”

Seeing Xiao Bai's expression at this moment, Qiu Hong was very satisfied, the long knife in his hand spun out a few beautiful knife flowers, and continued to smile:

"It's me, but I don't know if you still have the confidence to stop me? Come on, let me see how you've grown over the years, and don't let me down. ”

The name Qiu Hong may be unfamiliar even to people who often walk the rivers and lakes, but if you want to mention his other famous nickname "Ghost Sorrow", it can be said that everyone knows it.

Legend has it that Qiu Hong is obsessed with martial arts, he is not interested in anything except martial arts, and his style of acting is even more moody, and he has no concept of ordinary people's ethics, so he never needs a reason to kill, he kills bandits and bullies, he kills heroes, and he kills righteous men and gentlemen.

Such a reckless style of acting will naturally be resisted by the entire rivers and lakes, so both good and evil in the rivers and lakes want to get rid of it as soon as possible.

Xiao Bai, who had not yet entered the ranks, had already made some fame in the rivers and lakes, and he was also indignant when he heard that such a person existed. So he made an appointment with three or five good hands, and began to search for Qiu Hong's whereabouts together, and later heard that the two sides experienced a death battle, Xiao Bai and his party were all killed in the hands of Qiu Hong, only Xiao Bai escaped from the ascension to heaven, and Qiu Hong has completely disappeared since then, some people say that he died at the hands of Xiao Bai, and some people say that he hid in the mountains and forests to cultivate, but the truth of the matter has always been buried in Xiao Bai's heart and never mentioned to outsiders.

He would never have imagined that this martial madman who had been missing for many years would appear here at this time.

Xiao Bai knew that he would never be mistaken, because the hideous scar on Qiu Hong's face was given by him back then......
