Chapter 40: Taoism Meets Bandits
Lashan Temple is only seven or eight miles away this time, and everyone got on the horse and walked along the road to the mountain, and also went to pay homage to the Taoist holy land.
I heard that this Taoist temple has a history of hundreds of years, but let more than some want to go, along the way there are also a lot of pilgrims and tourists, of course, compared to those in the later generations of what Golden Week, only to see the tourists do not see the situation is much better.
As he was walking, he met three officers and soldiers, the leader of which was tall and handsome, dressed in shuttered armor, and a beast-headed heart guard on his chest. This person is the soldier and horse supervisor of this Dongping Mansion, and the two-gun general Dong Ping is also, followed by two deputy generals, who are also majestic, each holding a spear.
Dong Ping stared at Chao Gai and the others, riding horses with weapons one by one, which rich businessman and tycoon did not have weapons in these years, even if ordinary people went out, they would take a whistle stick.
"Stop." Dong Ping rode over and blocked the way.
"Something." Chao Gai said.
"Who are you, and why are you armed?" Dong Ping asked.
Chao Gai said: "In Xia Yuncheng County, these are all members of our county. I came to buy a boat in Guidi, and I heard that there was a Taoist temple on the mountain that came to watch. β
Dong Ping was a little disdainful, a county-level regimental training grade had to be outside the tenth grade, and the military attachΓ© who could not be on the stage was dressed up better than himself.
"Ah, it turned out to be Chao Gaichao's group practice, disrespectful and disrespectful. I think the dark horse under your crotch is very good, I don't know if you want to sell it. Dong Ping said.
"Thank you for the promotion, this horse was given by a friend, and I dare not sell it." Chao Gai didn't know Dong Ping either, although he could guess, but there was no intersection, so he naturally wouldn't recognize each other rashly.
Dong Ping shook his head and sighed, "It's a pity." β
"What's the pity." Wu Yong asked.
Dong Ping shook his head and said nothing, and led people away.
Li Kui said: "Why does this person understand etiquette so much, just like me Tie Niu, a reckless man." β
"Haha, you also know that you don't know etiquette." Next to him, Hua Lei laughed.
Li Kui said: "I am talking about the previous me, and now I know how to enter the door and shout a report, and I know how to salute." β
Chao Gai smiled: "It's natural for a military general to love horses, who made my dark clouds and snow so conspicuous." β
After a while, Dong Ping's two lieutenants came back, and they also brought dozens of infantry soldiers to stop Chao Gai and others.
Chao Gai was a little annoyed, even if it was just now, it was obviously intentional to block the road this time.
"Who are the two of you, why are you blocking my way up the mountain?" Chao Gai asked.
An adjutant general with a scar on his face said: "I am Yang Wei, the deputy general of Dong Dujian." β
"I'm Zhao Xie." Another white-faced lieutenant said.
These two names are Tai Chi Pin, Yang Wei and Zhao Xie.
"Yang Wei, Zhao Xie, stop me and wait, is there anything wrong?"
Yang Wei said: "My general likes your dark horse very much, I will give you five hundred yuan to sell me." β
Wu Yong said: "Two, we are here to enjoy the mountains and rivers, not to sell horses." If the two of you need to buy a horse, you can go to the Yuncheng Horse Market to go around, maybe you can meet a satisfactory one. β
Zhao Xie said: "No, I want this horse, you don't know my general, my general must get what he likes, if you can't get it, you will rob it, I advise you not to lose your life because of a horse, I mean well." β
Chao Gai was relieved, no wonder Dong Ping's family killed his whole family in order to get Cheng Taishou's daughter, and it seems that this habit has long been formed.
Li Kui was already angry and scolded: "Straight lady thief, if you say you don't sell it, you won't sell it, get out of here." β
The two sides did not speculate on the spot, Li Kui rode a horse with a plate axe, the horse used a three-meter-long and thirty-pound cast iron battle axe, and the horse went over to fight Zhao Xie, and Yang Wei came to help with a spear next to him. Li Kui's big axe swept through thousands of armies like a sweep, and the spears blocked by the two of them were numb, and the big axe slashed at Yang Wei's head, with an amazing momentum. Yang Wei raised his gun to parry, clicked, and cut off the tip of Yang Wei's gun.
Zhao Xie took the opportunity to stab Li Kui with a gun, and he felt the sound of whirring wind on his head, it turned out that a mixed iron rod hit the head, only one stick was about to hit the designated life, Zhao Xie hurriedly put away the gun and returned to defense, it turned out that Hua Lei was coming.
Li Kui and Yang Wei fought in one place, Hua Lei and Zhao Xie fought in one place, and in a blink of an eye, there were more than 20 rounds.
Wu Yong said with a smile: "This Dong Ping is not simple, there are no weak soldiers under the strong generals, and the two deputy generals are so brave." β
"Not really, if you really fight, that Yang Wei won't be able to hold out under Li Kui." Chao Gai said.
Chao Gai reminded him like this, and Wu Yong found that Li Kui was very awkward and timid.
Hua Lei found the right opportunity, and smashed a stick on the barrel of Zhao Xie's gun, the shaft of the cast iron gun was bent, Zhao Xie did not dare to fight again, and retreated to the side, Yang Wei was also tired and sweating.
Chao Gai said: "Two, please go back, I don't sell this horse." β
Chao Gai said, regardless of these two people, called Li Kui and Hua Lei to continue to walk forward with the guards.
Yang Wei and Zhao Xie were angry enough, but they were helpless, after all, they were officials and soldiers, and they couldn't rob them on the street.
The Taoist temple is full of big trees in the courtyard, quiet and **, the main hall and the wall are very simple. You don't need to buy tickets to enter and exit the Taoist temple, of course, if you have enough money to send some sesame oil, the Taoist priest will also laugh.
The Taoist temple is not big, just a few houses, two old roads, six or seven small roads, and most of the people who come to burn incense are good men and women.
Wu Yong said: "Brother, look, there is a beauty." β
Looking in the direction of Wu Yong, I saw that in the main hall, a twenty-eight girl was in her prime, with cloud sideburns and flower arrangement, her face was white and tender like peeled green onions, her eyebrows were lightly swept, and her beautiful eyes were affectionate.
"This must be the eldest lady of the family, she is really dignified and beautiful." Chao Gai said.
Wu Yong said with a smile: "It's better than the Hu Sanniang I saw in the morning." β
"The two are different beauties, although Hu Sanniang is a woman, she is a good kung fu and a man in the world. This woman is delicate and beautiful, and it makes people feel pity when they see it. β
This young lady had four guards with knives, and she was a little displeased to see Chao Gai and Wu Yong. Chao Gai and Wu Yong hurriedly left, and people found that the two adults peeked at the young lady, and the wisdom of their lives would be ruined.
After playing for more than an hour, about five o'clock in the afternoon, Chao Gai saw that the time was not early, so he went out of the Taoist temple and took the big guy to the inn.
I didn't go far, suddenly the people in front of me shouted that the horse neighed for a while, and everyone saw that it was the gang of robbers who had just run away with a big knife for one of the two, and the other with a snake spear, surrounded a sedan chair, and the sedan chair man had already let the bandits kill him, and fell in a pool of blood one by one. Next to the sedan chair, there were four guards dressed as family members holding steel knives, and their skills were not weak, and they cut down the four robbers as soon as they fought, and the blood flowed all over the ground, and the frightened people in the sedan chair shouted loudly.
Soon more robbers surrounded him, and the four guards were obviously a little unable to resist, and the tourists who were playing nearby shouted for evasion, like chickens that had encountered a weasel.
Chao Gai frowned: "This group of thieves is also too rampant, it seems that the person in the sedan chair is the person we saw in the Taoist temple." β
Wu Yong said: "Exactly, the form is grim." β
Chao Gai turned around and said, "You five, protect Mr. Wu, Li Kuihualei and I will kill the thief." β
The three of them rode and killed the past, and the thief with the big knife and the snake spear heard the sound of the horse's hooves and saw that it was actually the man who was riding a black horse in the morning, and there were two strong men behind him, who did not dare to fight, and turned around and fled. The two of them rode horses and ran fast, and the little minions behind them were miserable, and they were chased by Li Kuihualei and knocked over more than ten of them, and the rest were frightened and rolled into the weeds beside the road to hide.
Chao Gaima quickly caught up with the man with the big knife, and the golden dragon swallowing halberd only stabbed forward, and stabbed the man's shoulder blade with the head of the spear.
Ah, I fell off the horse with a scream, and the corners of my mouth bled and died.
Originally, he wanted to stab a non-lethal place, but Chao Gai still underestimated the power of the Golden Dragon Devouring Heavenly Halberd, and the spear head was more powerful than the Triangular Army Thorn.
The man with the snake spear took advantage of this kung fu to flee forward, and he had already been frightened out of his courage, where did he dare to fight, he just pretended to be Sanying to do some bad things on weekdays, and where did he meet a strong man. Chao Gai took off the bow of chasing the moon through the clouds, took a wolf's tooth arrow, bent the bow like a full moon, and the arrow went like a meteor.
This is the first time Chao Gai has used this bow to shoot a real person, and the last time he shot the evil slave of Ren Tianba, he just shot his hair bun, and this time he aimed directly at his back.
The wolf's fang arrow hit, and the man hesitated for a moment, then immediately fell. When Chao Gai came over, he found that this person had actually been penetrated, and his wolf tooth arrow did not know where to fly.
The sound of horses' hooves sounded in front, Dong Ping took his two lieutenants, Yang Wei and Zhao Xie, and there were dozens of soldiers behind him, Dong Ping was angry, and what he was holding in his hand was Chao Gai's wolf tooth arrow, which was still covered with blood.
"Bold Chao Gai, do you want to assassinate the general?" Dong Pingdao.
Chao Gai's halberd immediately crossed it, hugged his fist, and said: "I'm sorry, there was a thief here who wanted to escape just now, and I shot an arrow in a hurry, but I didn't expect to use too much strength to shoot this person through." If I hurt the general, I'm willing to bear the cost of medicine. β
It stands to reason that Chao Gai can say this, although Dong Ping's level is higher than Chao Gai, but Chao Gai belongs to Jeju, and Chao Gai is also famous. But Dong Ping was very unhappy when he saw Chao Gai's virtue.
"I am dignified in Dongping Mansion, where did you come from, it is clear that you are committing murder here." Dong Ping scolded.
Chao Gai was angry, disdainful of explanation, shook the halberd in his hand, and snorted coldly: "It doesn't matter if it's good or bad." β
At this time, Li Kui, Hua Lei, Wu Yong, and the five guards all arrived, and even Wu Yong drew his waist knife, and the battle was about to break out.
"Bold, you actually played tricks in front of the eunuch of the capital, take it down for me." Dong Ping shouted.
Chao Gai and the others looked as if nothing had happened, and Li Kui also put the bloody battle axe to his mouth and licked it with his tongue, which made people disgusting.
Yang Wei and Zhao Xie lost just now, and they are still a little timid, but Dong Ping didn't dare not listen to his orders, and brought people up to take Chao Gai and others.
At this time, behind Chao Gai and the others, the robbed beauty was protected by four guards, and the two maids helped her away, only to see that the woman was angry.
"Enough, Dong Ping, you can't see that others are better than you, regardless of reason, you will take people without asking questions, whether you are a thief or an officer and soldier."
Dong Ping's handsome face was red and blue for a while, and his breathing was short.
