Horse Moon (Part I)
Outside the mountain, in Qingzhou, in the east, there is a green mountain, under the green mountain, there is a small town, called Qingshan Town.
There is a saying that poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, not that the mountains and rivers are not good for raising people, but that people struggle with the harsh environment all year round, and in order to survive, they can only make themselves strong.
This is the case with the residents of this town of Castle Peak.
Qingshan Town is a relatively backward remote town in Qingzhou, and backed by Qingshan, it is a good place for thieves to hide, most of the wealthy businessmen are unwilling to come here to be poor and bad, and the poverty of Qingshan Town is day after day.
Some residents of Qingshan Town relied on their own bravery, or they really couldn't survive, so they simply fell into the grass and became a coward, and some adhered to the moral code of those who practiced martial arts, hoeed the strong and helped the weak, and used their own skills to go out and work hard to make a career.
This is the case with the Ma family in Qingshan Town.
There are not many ways out that people who practice martial arts, but they are just doing some escort or escort business, as a martial artist, they naturally have the reserve of a martial artist, and the Ma family is unwilling to nod to the powerful, so the choice can only be escort.
The headquarters of the dart bureau established by the Ma family was no longer in Qingshan Town, because Qingshan Town was too backward, but everyone valued the local feelings, and the people of the Ma family created a little fame outside, and did not forget the fire in their hometown.
The young master of the Ma family is named Ma Yue, who became a dart master at the age of fourteen, and can walk darts independently.
Moreover, Ma Yue also had a marriage contract with Liu Yue, the daughter of the Liu family, a wealthy businessman in Qingshan County, because the two grew up together since childhood, and their parents knew each other well, this marriage contract came naturally.
If you say that this Liu Yue'e looks cute and smart, but her personality is like a boy. The people's requirements for their children will not be so high, and the Liu family is also a family of merchants, not a family heirloom with courtesy. Liu Yue'e has been playing with Ma Yue since she was a child, and she has also learned a little bit of the Ma family's fist and foot moves, although she is more serious, she is not Ma Yue's opponent at all, but she often bullies Ma Yue.
In this way, it can be regarded as a bad personality, Liu Yue'e's father feels that he is a daughter, and he is really fortunate that he can marry his daughter, and he is naturally very approving of Ma Yue and Liu Yue'e's feelings.
The etiquette of ordinary people is relatively casual, and everyone agrees to abide by a rule, to come with a car, to bribe me, and this marriage is done.
But before that, the Liu family had a batch of goods, and at the invitation of the Ma family, they were going to Qingshan Town to sell. The Liu family also has such a thought, their daughter will marry to Qingshan Town in the future, and it will be excellent to open a branch there at this time. So he called the dart master of the Ma family to escort this batch of goods from Qingshan County to Qingshan Town.
This distance is actually not long, a total of one day is enough, the Ma family thought, this is to send something to the in-laws, it is better to let Ma Yue go!
So, this time, the dart master became Ma Yue, and there was Ruo Guard.
On that day, Ma Yue was in good spirits, carrying a machete on her back, looking majestic and handsome.
Of course, he is not good at using a knife, and the dart master is also like this, the fist and foot kung fu is good, and the kung fu on the knife is worse, after all, if you go south and north, if you encounter bandits, this knife, most of them are the role of deterrence, and you can solve the battle without blood, only the fists and feet are the best, if you see blood, then it is endless.
In this world, everyone cherishes their lives, the dart master is like this, and the bandits are the same, which can be regarded as the tacit understanding gradually developed between the dart master and the bandits.
After the goods of the Liu family were loaded into the car, there were five big carts, and before leaving, Ma Yue routinely checked the goods, opened a box, but found that there was a delicate and cute girl with a bit of heroism.
Who else could it be if it wasn't Liu Yue'e?
Ma Yue was about to scream, but Liu Yue'e quickly reached out and pinched his waist, threatening him with her eyes: "If you dare to speak out, you will die!" ”
Ma Yue's face was distorted, and she asked Liu Yue'e in a low voice, "What are you doing here?" ”
"I've been hearing you talk about how fun and interesting dart walking is, and I want to see it too, can't I?"
Liu Yue'e justified her playfulness, and Ma Yuesheng couldn't refute it. Father Liu on the other end, seeing him stop in place for a long time, couldn't help asking, "Virtuous nephew, but what's the problem?" ”
"No problem, no problem......"
Ma Yue subconsciously covered up Liu Yue'e, this is already a habitual back-off, and he always has no way to take Liu Yue'e. But after thinking about it a little, Ma Yue felt that it was not impossible to take Liu Yue'e to see and understand, anyway, it was only a one-day journey, and this road had been walked repeatedly I don't know how many times, and I had not encountered any danger.
In this way, Ma Yue took Liu Yue'e on the road.
As soon as she got rid of the gate of Qingshan County, Liu Yue'e came out of the box, and the other dart masters were stunned for a moment when they saw Ma Yue's great transformation of life, and then they all gave out a funny smile when they saw Liu Yue'e's young lady after that.
Liu Yue, who was so domineering in front of Ma Yue, was laughed at by these people, but instead showed a childish posture, hid behind Ma Yue with a red face, and hugged his waist into a ball. The dart masters laughed even louder.
Ma Yue was also a little embarrassed, and reprimanded: "What are you laughing at, I'm in a hurry!" ”
But he is young after all, although he is the head of this dart, his prestige is still not enough, plus most of these people are from the Ma family, not his uncle, or his cousin, they are all laughing with kindness, and naturally they will not be bluffed by Ma Yue.
So Liu Yue'e has always been cowardly under such an aura, which also made Ma Yue rarely see another side of her.
In the eyes of a lover, whether it is a domineering her or a cowardly her, Ma Yue likes it tightly.
I thought that everything would be smooth sailing, but when the five carloads of goods passed by the foot of the green mountains, they finally attracted a large group of bandits to wait.
There are more than 20 people in total, and there are more than 10 dart masters on Ma Yue's side, and there is a small gap in the number of people, but Ma Yue's side is not without the strength to fight.
Seeing those bandits coming from a distance, Ma Yue and the others had no way to escape, after all, these goods were here, and it was impossible to lose them in vain.
was only worried that Liu Yue'e would be hurt, so Ma Yue hurriedly explained: "You go and hide, and when we repel the bandits, you will come out again." ”
Ma Yue knows that Liu Yue'e's three-legged cat kung fu can also bully him, and he must be a knife to the thief.
Liu Yue'e is also sensible, so she found the big box where she was hiding at the beginning and got in.
Outside, the bandits finally arrived. At the head were four people, one of whom said, "I opened this mountain!" ”
Another person replied, "I planted this tree." ”
Another said, "If you want to cross this road." ”
In the end, the man was not left behind, and said, "Leave it to buy road money." ”
Ma Yue: "......"
He was very nervous at first, but seeing the leader of the four bandits so strange, his heart did not fluctuate, and he even wanted to laugh a little.
The four bandit leaders were all a little young, and Ma Yue threw out a money bag as soon as he threw his hand, and said, "These are asking for wine money for your brothers, and you will be bothered to let us pass." ”
Ma Yue will give money directly if he doesn't start fighting, but also to avoid extraneous branches, if Liu Yue'e is not there, with his youthful nature, most of them will have to fight again.
The big man at the head took the money bag, weighed it, this amount was not bad, and was about to open his mouth to let go, when a thief with rat eyes stepped forward and whispered: "Big boss, they have so many goods, do we only need such a little money?" ”
It was a more treacherous person in the cottage who spoke, and it can also be said that the IQ of this group of thieves is responsible, and the big boss said unhappily when he heard this: "Wang San, take it when you see it." ”
"But the big boss, there is almost no rice on the mountain, so we will rob them of half a carload of things, and it is not a violation of the rules."
Wang San still persuaded him, and the big boss groaned for a moment, thinking of the tragic situation on the mountain now, his heart was crossed, and he said to Ma Yue: "This is enough as wine money, but brothers can't drink hungry, you five carts of goods, leave one cart!" ”
The big boss is asking for a price with Ma Yue, just waiting for Ma Yue to sit on the ground and pay back, he is not insatiable and wants a cart of things, but Ma Yue is a teenager and is not very old, so he doesn't know that the thief is bargaining, but the thief has to make inches.
He heard his father say this before he went to the dart, if the thief is easy to talk, then just give some money to send it away, if the thief has to inch in, if he blindly retreats, it will only make the thief more insatiable, so at this time, you must show your ability.
Ma Yue untied the big knife and threw it on the ground, and said: "Since the owner wants this carload of goods, then how about we have done a game, if you win, you can take a carload of goods, it will be regarded as if I made you a friend, if you can't win, please make it convenient." ”
Throwing away the knife is also showing his attitude, not wanting to see blood. The big boss is also a person who understands the rules, and the people under his hands did not move, he and Ma Yue stepped forward separately, and the dart master and the bandit were divided into two sides to confront each other.
In fact, the strongest thing in the big boss is the one-handed whip method, but in front of him is a half-sized man, all bare-handed, how embarrassed is he to hold a weapon. So he also did it with his bare hands.
Boxing is afraid of being less strong, the big boss is a few years older than Ma Yue, it is the peak moment of boxing, Ma Yue is from the peak, there are still some years of precipitation, but the Ma family's boxing is exquisite, Ma Yue thinks that Liu Yue'e is here, so that she holds back a lot of strength in her heart and can't lose.
As soon as this big boss came on the field, he was pressed and beaten by Ma Yue, and after more than ten rounds, although the big boss was not defeated, the winners and losers were already clear.
Ma Yue used another move to pierce his ears, and the big boss was able to block it, but he was kicked in the stomach by Ma Yue's roundabout kick, and he took a few steps back, but he didn't suffer any damage. Immediately knew that this Ma Yue should have been merciful, and was about to admit defeat, but his subordinates moved, and when everyone's attention was attracted by this duel, that Wang San made some small moves.
After he saw that his big boss couldn't beat others, he immediately began to pry those thieves, and they moved, all for a bite of food, festival or something, it was worthless, so the big boss's subordinates were all instigated by Wang San, and took advantage of the unpreparedness to sneak to the side of the carriage, pick up the box and run.
With such a change, the big boss didn't make it, and Ma Yue saw that the boxes where Liu Yue'e was hiding were among those boxes that were resisted.
"Despicable villain!"
Ma Yue's eyes suddenly turned red, turned around and picked up the machete and chased after those people, the four brothers of the big boss looked at each other, and they didn't know what to do, so they had to stop the thieves while chasing after them. But such behavior, in Ma Yue's view, is clearly a coy gesture.
He didn't have time to care about these, he just wanted to chase Liu Yue'e back, but he had a fight with the big boss just now, and his strength was a little damaged, and although these thieves were carrying things, they were familiar with mountain roads, and it didn't take long for Ma Yue to get rid of them.
Ma Yue was furious, but she had no choice but to drag her tired body and chase towards the mountain.
But said that this group of thieves, after carrying those boxes back, the four big bosses also chased back, and the big boss asked what happened, and without saying a word, he found Wang San and slapped him violently.
"Where do you bring this to our brother's reputation?"
Wang San laughed miserably, half of his face was already swollen, but he still said stubbornly: "If you want to kill or scrape, I admit it, as long as I can let the brothers have a bite to eat, I will die without regrets." ”
The big boss raised his hand and put it down again, and when he saw the flashing eyes of the other bandits, he sighed.
"That's it, it's come to this, so be it, you don't need to carry it, if others poke the backbone in the future, come to our four brothers!"
The words of the big boss made Wang San, who was half of his swollen face, smile, he was grateful, and choked up: "The big boss ......"
Seeing him like this, the big boss also had a little sour nose.
This gang of bandits, under his leadership, has become more and more miserable, because he will be moral, even if it is a robbery, he will only take one-tenth, but there are few passers-by, and it is rare to encounter a large convoy like Ma Yue, one-tenth, which is really not enough to eat.
With the acquiescence of the big bosses, the bandits began to open boxes, some of which contained cloth, some of which contained silk threads, and some of which were ......
"There are women!"
The thief who opened Liu Yue'e's box was shocked, and then his heart was full of joy, there are only about twenty singles on this mountain, and if he stays any longer, there will be some philosophical feelings on this mountain, at this time a woman appeared, and she looks pure and beautiful, this is a treasure that is more valuable than cloth and silk thread!
For a while, countless wolf-like eyes looked over......
