Chapter 20 Iron ruler and bronze teeth
Seeing Miss Rushuang's reaction, He Tian hurriedly explained: "Miss, don't misunderstand. It's not a mad rambling, and it's not a person who is born to be beaten. But...... But...... Let's put it this way: I have been practicing martial arts hard for several years, just so that I will not be beaten down by you again! He knows that you like heroes with outstanding martial arts, and I also take it as my lifelong goal: defeat you and marry you again! ”。
Ma Rushuang's face changed when she heard this, and her face was angry, and she wanted to kick him away.
But on second thought, it was still necessary to rely on the help of this prodigal son to get out of this place. suppressed his anger and comforted him with kind words: "Thanks to He Gongzi's wrong love, Rushuang is grateful." But my father has made the decision to promise me to Guan Yu, the king of Dachu Dingbei, Rushuang has no choice but to obey his father's orders, you still die of that heart! ”
He Tianzong's face turned blue for an instant, and he shouted: "What you said is that little white face? Although He has never seen this thief, he has heard rumors in the rivers and lakes that this person is a scum of martial arts, a heinous criminal, destined to be a short-lived ghost, and will die sooner or later! I also hope that Miss Rushuang will think twice. ”
The words completely angered Miss Rushuang for no reason.
Her face was pale, she gritted her teeth and pulled out the sword from the scabbard without hesitation, and without saying a word, she slashed at He Tianzong with all her might.
The so-called Shibei should be impressed by each other for three days, He Tianzong has been wandering in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and he has practiced martial arts under the door of ten thousand ghosts. In the past, he had already been slashed in half by Rushuang's sword, but now he jumped back flexibly, and easily pulled out an iron ruler from behind his waist, avoiding the sharp blade, and with a "dang" sound, he raised his hand to remove most of the sword's strength.
Ma Rushuang did not relent, took two steps forward, changed her body style, her jade wrist trembled slightly, and in the blink of an eye, she made three swords in a row.
He Tianzong was dazzled, his eyes widened, and he struggled to keep an eye on Rushuang's every move.
While scrambling to parry, large drops of sweat appeared on his forehead. Rao was like this, and the placket on his chest was still cut three times by the blade, and a faint trace of blood oozed out.
He Gongzi couldn't figure it out: why did his ancient and warm-hearted persuasion arouse such a big anger from Miss Rushuang? It's going to be real! I haven't seen her for many days, how can this girl's swordsmanship become so tricky and ferocious? I vaguely remember that I wasn't so murderous!
Taking a deep breath, He Tianzong tried to calm himself down. At this moment, he didn't dare to think of any arrogant words of "defeat her and marry her again". Look at this posture, it's important to save your life first!
If you relented and begged the other party's subordinates to show mercy at this time, I'm afraid it would not be realistic, and I would be a dignified seven-foot man...... It's a bit hard to open your mouth!
He Tianzong's footwork was messed up, and beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down his cheeks. While stumbling and desperately parrying, he was forced to retreat again and again.
Ma Rushuang's eyebrows were upside down, and she didn't have the slightest pity for the other party's embarrassment, let alone give up.
Seeing that the other party retreated again and again in a panic, she pointed her toes on the ground, rose into the air, pressed step by step, and her sharp swordsmanship did not reduce by half a point, and her moves pointed directly at its vital point.
After fighting for dozens of rounds, with a "poof", He Tianzong fell to the ground with a stumbling back, and the iron ruler unfortunately fell out of his hand.
With a pale face, he saw Ma Rushuang jump up again, the cold sword tip stabbing at his throat with cold light, and quickly closed his eyes. sighed in my heart: That's it, since I am destined not to be her opponent, I have no chance to love each other in this life, and I can die under her sword, but I wish to die, I will die as I deserve!
"Frost, stop! Don't hurt He Gongzi's life. There was a broken cry from behind, and the sound was like a bell.
Ma Rushuang was slightly stunned, and hurriedly put away her sword momentum and raised her head.
But he saw Gao Ming, who had a thick beard, rushing over in three steps and two steps, followed by the two men who had been following Rushuang girl.
Gao Ming rushed to the front, looked down at He Tianzong who fell to the ground in embarrassment, and saw that he was still panting for hot air in his mouth, and there was no blood splashed, so he was greatly relieved.
He turned his head and said to Ru Shuang with a dark face: "Before going out, I repeatedly told me that this is not the territory of our Ma Jiajun in the northwest, and you can't act recklessly, have you forgotten?" How did He Gongzi offend you? You're going to kill him?! ”。
It's okay not to ask, but after asking, Ma Rushuang raised her eyebrows again, and waved her sword angrily and pointed at He Tianzong on the ground and said, "You ask him if he deserves to die!" ”。
He Tianzong escaped death, frightened, and didn't care to pick up the iron ruler that fell to the ground.
Suddenly, seeing that Miss Rushuang's anger was rekindled, she hurriedly hid behind Gao Ming, and muttered: "Thank you Brother Gao for saving your life, in fact, I can't complain about Miss Rushuang, it was the younger brother who inadvertently offended her." ”
Gao Ming turned his head and glanced back at He Gongzi strangely, sighed lightly, turned his head to Ma Rushuang and said in a slow tone: "Shuang'er, no matter what, for the sake of the relationship between the handsome and Master He for many years, let He Gongzi go!" Otherwise, we won't be able to explain it. ”
Miss Rushuang stomped her feet indignantly and said, "If it was just Shuang'er who was wronged, but he dared to slander and curse my master, he deserved death!" ”
Gao Ming was slightly stunned, then bared his teeth and grinned: "Your master's skin is thicker than the bottom of his boots, don't say a word of scolding, a knife and axe may not be able to peel off a layer of skin!" This is the capital of Dachu, is it necessary to kill people on the street for these little things? For the sake of your father and Uncle Gao's thin face, spare this He Gongzi's life! ”。
Ma Rushuang snorted coldly, lowered her head and thought for a moment, and reluctantly plunged the sword back into the scabbard.
Seeing that he was not worried about his life, He Gongzi hurriedly turned his head and looked around, ran over and picked up the iron ruler left on the ground, inserted it back into his waist, and turned to bow to Gao Ming and thanked: "Thank you Brother Gao for saving your life!" Unforgettable under toothlessness. ”
He turned to Miss Rushuang again, and said with a sincere face, "Thank you Miss Rushuang for your mercy." The gentleman said that the horse is difficult to chase, and the girl entrusted the next thing to buy a horse out of the city, so he will do it! Also, He had to confide in his heartfelt words: For the sake of the girl's safety, I must stay away from the little white face surnamed Guan! ”。
When Miss Rushuang heard this, she was immediately ashamed and couldn't cry or laugh. His face instantly flushed, and at the same time, he secretly glanced at Gao Ming. But seeing that Uncle Gao was slightly stunned, he raised his eyes and stared at Ma Rushuang with an unkind face, grinning and sneering.
Gao Ming ignored Ma Rushuang, turned his face to He Tianzong and raised his hand and said: "Gongzi He walks slowly, since we are destined to meet again in another country, I want to invite Gongzi He to have a drink or two and have a light meal." Please also ask He Gongzi to make it clear, when did Shuang'er ask you to help buy a horse and go out of the city? Why is it not safe to be around that little white face? ”。
Ma Rushuang hurriedly stomped her feet and urged: "You don't want to go quickly?" If you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame me for being angry and pulling out my sword to cut you! ”。
Gao Ming quietly turned his head and glared at her, turned his face to He Tianzong and said with a smile: "He Gongzi don't have to worry, with me Gao someone here today, no one dares to hurt a single hair of you!" ”。
In a restaurant on the side of the street, Ma Rushuang turned her face away and sat alone, bowing her head and sulking, not touching the food in front of her.
Gao Ming, He Tianzong and the other four sat around another table, talking and laughing affectionately.
Gao Ming picked up the wine bowl and said with a smile: "Helping Miss Rushuang buy a horse will not worry about He Gongzi!" My family commander has instructed: I will take care of everything that Frost needs will be taken care of. By the way, you can tell me, why is that Guan Yu notorious in the rivers and lakes? If he really did all kinds of things that made the gentleman despised, I should truthfully return to my handsome family, and I must not let Miss Rushuang marry him in such a daze, so that she will regret it for the rest of her life! ”。
He Tian's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he suddenly came to his senses.
He put down the wine bowl in his hand, looked around, and mysteriously leaned over and bowed his head to Gao Ming and whispered: "Brother Gao doesn't know, this thief has long been notorious: sneaking up on the imperial court officials, killing people and goods, and abducting a little nun on Yunkong Mountain who is dedicated to Buddha. What's even more infuriating is that the big disciple of Wangjiangmen is strong in martial arts, and he can't fight, so he uses despicable means to secretly poison his hands, so that there is no successor to Wangjiangmen! It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that this thief is already a public enemy of martial arts, and everyone will be punished! Other details, because they involve the secrets of this sect, I will not say more. ”
Gao Ming's eyes widened in surprise and said, "Oh? This dignified King of Dingbei has done so much evil on the rivers and lakes and has a bad reputation? Yunkong Mountain Yunni Master is too strong in martial arts, how could he watch him abduct the disciples under him? I don't know where that little nun is? ”。
He Tianzong took a sip of wine, put down the wine bowl steadily, frowned and shook his head: "Before leaving, the family teacher told me to wait: this thief can only do some three-legged cat kung fu. The martial arts are sparse, but the methods are extremely cruel and inferior, and they will only make some indiscriminate tricks. The little nun who was taken away is probably gone by now! ”。
Gao Ming nodded again and again: "It makes sense, no wonder I have never seen any little nuns around him." ”
The wine and dinner were over, and He Tianzong got up to say goodbye. After hesitating for a moment, he still stepped forward and bowed to say goodbye to Ma Rushuang.
Miss Rushuang pouted and twisted her face, not bothering to lift her eyelids.
He Gongzi was stunned in his heart.
In fact, he should feel lucky: if Ru Shuang had just heard his whisper to Gao Ming, I am afraid that he would have been in a different place by this time.
After He Tianzong left, Gao Ming got up with a smile and said to Ma Rushuang: "Let's go, Shuang'er." While it's still early, do you want Uncle Gao to accompany you to the mule and horse market in the city to find a good horse to get out of the city? ”。
In the evening, He Tianzong returned to the local stronghold of the Ten Thousand Ghost Gate in Pingzhou.
Thinking of the chance encounter with Miss Rushuang during the day, I couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in my heart: first, I didn't expect that after all these years of hard cultivation, she is still not her opponent, and she must practice even harder in the future!
Second, Ma Dashuai actually pushed the fairy-like Rushuang girl into the fire pit and forced her to marry that thief who was angry with everyone and God! It's just that the thief is now in front of the two armies on the front line, and I can't kill him together after a while, so how can this be good? Miss Rushuang has a stubborn personality, why did she succumb to her father's coercion this time, and just agreed to marry that thief?! What a weak woman!
The more He Gongzi thought about it, the more angry he became, he couldn't help but get up and made up his mind: he must not just watch his sweetheart fall into the abyss. In any case, even if I give up my life, I will save her from the sea of suffering!
"Senior brother, I see that you are worried, but what is the reason for your trouble?" Several senior brothers of the Ten Thousand Ghost Sect couldn't help but gather around when they saw He Tianzong's strange appearance.
Under repeated questioning by everyone, He Tianzong confided in his past with Miss Rushuang, as well as the entanglement between the target they wanted to assassinate and his own grievances.
"This thief has one more charge of stealing the son!" The senior brother of the Ten Thousand Ghost Sect said indignantly. He looked much fatter than he had been when he had slashed his arm.
Suddenly he found that his sleeves were being pulled, and when he looked back, it was a junior brother who squeezed his eyebrows at him.
The two of them left the crowd and went to a secluded place outside the house. The junior brother opened his mouth and whispered mysteriously, "Senior brother, that evil thief is far away in front of the two armies at the moment, and he can't do anything about it when they are far apart. While we and others are strong, if we can kill the thief's woman here...... It's better than returning in vain, being scolded by the master, and being laughed at by the same family. But I don't know what you think, senior brother? ”。
