Chapter 9: Ranger Father and Daughter
It has been a month and a half since Yan Hudun disappeared, and now Wei Zeng works in a restaurant, and there may be more people coming and going in the restaurant, and he can often inquire about the latest news, and there may be clues about Yan Hudun in these news.
Most of these messages are related to martial arts, thieves, gangsters, and cultists; Others are about the political situation and the struggle for power among the upper aristocratic officials; Of course, there are also many celebrity lace news, and there are some entertainment things in any era.
Wei Zeng didn't get any news about Yan Hudun, and even very little about the Blast. But I also heard some very special things, which are said to have been done by one person.
First of all, a month ago, a group of more than 20 thieves was about to ransack a village near Hebing City, but they were wiped out by one person who passed by with a one-handed sword, and no one escaped. (Hebing Castle is the northernmost large city in the Kanhoku region)
Twenty days ago, the head of the leader of a group of thieves entrenched in Anling, Yushan Mountain, was sent to the official office of Lu Yecheng, and one person took a bounty of one hundred taels of silver. It is said that the person who came was the same person who had killed more than two dozen thieves before.
Just ten days ago, the bodies of a group of cultists wearing green clothes and ghost masks that often haunted the southern part of Luye City were found by pedestrians, all of whom were assassinated by a sword, and the murder method seemed to be the previous person.
Today, Wei Zeng walked back home after finishing it, and on the way he met Gu Chayi, who was also going home. Gu Chayi also talked about that series of special things on the way. It seems that this matter has been widely spread in Guiwu. The current Gu Chayi doesn't care about anything other than practicing martial arts, and he knows how widely this matter has been spread.
"I have heard that the mysterious man is about to return to Wuwu, because the place of events is in chronological order from north to south. To the south, returning to Wu is the only way to go. Gu Cha said what he heard, and then listened to him say, "You must pay more attention to the news of this person in the last few days. Tell me when you know. If you can learn a trick and a half from a master like him, it will be inexhaustible. ”
"Okay, I'll tell you if there's news. By the way, I heard my aunt say that Weizhen is studying medicine with a Lang Zhong now, do you know about this? ”
"It's not that you taught Weizhen to read medical books, but Weizhen got some strange herbs home, which seems to have been given by a Lang Zhong near us. Now Weizhen runs to Langzhong twice in three days, and sometimes makes some strange medicines, saying that they can cure diseases. I had a headache a few days ago, and I really took out a pill and said it could cure the headache, but I didn't dare to take it anyway. For this reason, Weizhen ignored me for several days. ”
"Yes, wouldn't it be nice if only Zhenzhen could learn medical skills?"
"You think it's good, you can test her medicine later. Anyway, I didn't dare to take the medicine she dispensed. ”
The two arrived at the door of the house as they spoke, and saw a girl in red clothes standing at the door of the ancient house, this girl was equipped with a three-foot short sword at her waist, her expression was proud, and her body showed a heroic spirit. Seeing the arrival of Wei Zeng and Gu Cha, he said directly.
"You are Wei Zeng and Gu Chayi. Come with me, the man is back. As he spoke, he turned and left.
Wei Zeng and Gu Cha were stunned and understood. Hurriedly asked the girl, "Girl, are you saying that Senior Yan Hudun is back." ”
The girl nodded in reply.
"Who is that, what happened to Teacher Yan? He's back, why did you call you, why haven't we seen you before? Gu Chayi also asked.
"What, who, I'm older than you, you have to call me sister. My martial arts are better than yours, you have to call me a senior. As for your teacher Yan, won't you ask about it yourself? As for you not seeing me, isn't that normal, because I haven't seen you either. The girl said something that was equivalent to not saying anything, and she choked Gu Cha speechless.
Although she spoke, the girl did not slow down, the pace was fast and steady, and she had definitely practiced light skills. Wei Zeng and Gu Chayi also walked quickly and followed the girl. I also asked some questions, but you will know if the girl goes, and I won't tell you if I ask. Let the two teenagers just rush quietly.
When I arrived at Yan Hudun's house, I saw Yan Hudun sitting on a chair talking to another middle-aged man. The middle-aged man was dressed in a gray cloth coat, with a long sword at his waist, and his face was obviously a passerby, with three points of perseverance, three points of arrogance and three points of calm in his eyes, and a point of loving smile that was only reserved for the precious daughter.
And Yan Hudun is still in ordinary civilian clothes, but his face is a little pale, and his empty left sleeve shows his unfortunate experience, but his face is smiling.
When the girl reached the house, she walked over to the man in gray, and stood still. As soon as Wei Zeng and Gu Cha saw Yan Hu, their eyes showed joy, but they could see that the empty left arm had a sad mood. Yan Hudun saw the mood fluctuations of the two teenagers and said: "Okay, it's okay now, don't be too sad, it's already a great luck in misfortune that you didn't die." It's thanks to my senior brother who passed by and saved me, otherwise I would never see you again. ”
The two thanked the middle-aged man. Wei Zeng saw that his outfit was the same as rumored, so he knew his identity. Gu Chayi thought for a while, suddenly realized, and said loudly: "You are the ranger that everyone is talking about now." Sir, you are really a good martial artist. Later, I wanted to say that I hoped to teach a few tricks and styles, but seeing Yan Hudun beside me, these words should not be said.
The man in gray just smiled and didn't say much.
I only heard Yan Hudun tell the two about his recent experience.
On the night of saying goodbye to Wei Zeng that day, Yan Hudun got together with other peripheral warriors and quietly sneaked into a small courtyard. Several wagons carried it to a nearby town. By the time we arrived in the town, it was already noon the next day. The leader told the samurai to feed themselves and nourish their spirits, and at night they raided the gangster stronghold in the small town.
Yan Hudun saw that his clothes were members of the Luye City Gang and the Tigers, and he let him lurk so close to Guiwu City. For nearly a month, he and the rest of the Breez warriors were removed from the Tigers and their vassals. Still on the outskirts of Lu Ye City, he defeated the Tiger Gang.
The main force of the Storm Regiments broke through to Lu Ye City and destroyed the Tiger Gang's main altar. Some people were left to consolidate their achievements in Lu Ye City, and the others came back in batches.
But just ten days ago, when Yan Hudun came back with nine warriors from the periphery of the Windrush Regiment, he was confronted by a group of Cultists in Tsing Yi and Ghost Faces searching for people, and as soon as the two sides met, a fight broke out. There is a ghost-faced man, who is really good at martial arts, and he killed three wind warriors and was killed. As soon as the man died, the other cultists dispersed. Five people were killed and five others were wounded. I wanted to leave quickly, but not long away, a group of ghost-faced people in Tsing Yi surrounded me. The other four were killed, and Yan Hudun was also cut off by an arm. At this time, the ranger father and daughter rushed over, killed the cultists, and saved Yan Hudun, who turned out to be the same brother and sister.
The gray-clothed ranger said at this time: "Originally, this matter was caused by the little girl, but I didn't expect it to affect the junior brother." Wendy, you say. ”
"Dad, how can you blame me for this? It's those cultists who want to capture me and sacrifice to their main god, and I don't want to be killed like a pig or a sheep. Naturally, they killed that group of cultists, and they found the wrong person for the enemy, so can I be blamed? Wen Di said a little aggrieved when he heard his father say this.
"You killed the cultists, not your father? Are you that high in martial arts? Gu Chayi said in surprise.
Wei Zeng was also surprised in his heart.
"Taller than you anyway. Hum. The girl Wendy returned to her unanswerable appearance.
"Wendi should be polite, they are also half of your uncle's disciple, and you must talk about the minimum etiquette." The man seems to be teaching his daughter, but how can he teach half a lesson.
"Do you know that the two younger brothers are going to talk about etiquette?"
Wei Zeng and Gu Chayi remained silent. Yan Hudun smiled wryly. The man in gray is still a loving father.
It turned out that the man in gray was named Liu Hexin and Yan Hudun were brothers in the same school, Liu Hexin learned very quickly and left the school very early. After the accident, he traveled the world with a sword, relying on a good martial arts all the way. Yan Hudun was exiled to Guiwu due to famine and joined the blast group, which has already been said.
After asking about three rumored things. It turned out that Liu Hexin and his daughter Liu Wendi traveled to a small village, and they wanted to spend the night, but they robbed the thieves, so the two of them shot and ended up with the gang of thieves. Later, he was shy in Lu Yecheng's pocket, so he beheaded a bandit nearby and got the right to be a bounty as a road capital. Then Wendi was on the way to get water, and encountered the cultists who captured the girl, which resulted in the lives of several people, but was rounded up by the cultists. Later, Yan Hudun was besieged and killed, and the two rescued people. Then escort Yan Hudun back. The head of the Blaster Regiment knew about this, and when he saw that Yan Hudun's left arm was gone, he allowed him to retire early. Yan Hudun can finally spend the rest of his life in peace.
On the second day, Wei Zeng and Gu Cha came to Yan Hudun's place to continue practicing martial arts, waking up Wen Di, who was sleeping lazily. Wen Di sat aside, holding his head in one hand and pointing with his sword in the other, and said, "This is not right, it is too slow, the force is too great, I really can't bear to look at it anymore." "It's a joy to see.
Gu Chayi couldn't help but challenge Wen Di at first, and Wen Di showed a sly gaze and happily agreed.
I saw Gu Cha stab Wen Di one by one, Wen Di flashed sideways, and as soon as the sheathed sword reached the barrel of the gun, the tip of the sword stabbed Gu Cha Yi at the joint of his right arm. Gu Cha felt a numb arm, and another sword stabbed the joint of his left arm, so his hands were unable to exert his strength, and the spear in his hand was picked away.
If it is a competition, the winner is already divided. But Wen Di followed up, turned his body slightly, and arrived behind Gu Chayi, and quickly hit him twice, making Gu Chayi's body unbalanced in the knee joint, and hitting the hip again, Gu Cha fell into a dog gnawing mud.
Seeing that Wen Di easily knocked Gu Chayi to the ground, Wei Zeng regretted challenging Wen Di a little. looked at Wen and said, "It's too bad, it's too bad." Then he looked at Wei Zeng with a mocking gaze.
Wei Zeng swallowed a mouthful of saliva and took out his cane to make a defensive posture to cover the vital points around his body.
Wen Di raised his eyebrows and said with interest: "Do you think that if you retract your head into your shell, I won't be able to hit you." As he spoke, he stabbed Wei Zeng's face and blocked Wei Zeng's staff, but unexpectedly, Wen Di changed his move and hit Wei Zeng's chest halfway. Wei Zeng replaced defense with offense, and attacked Wen Di's body with a cane. Wendi was only able to avoid it on one side, and the wind brought by the wooden staff also blew a few of Wendi's hairs fluttered.
Wendi's sword undoubtedly struck Wei Zeng's chest. Wei Zeng only felt a suffocation in his chest, and it was a little difficult to breathe, and he couldn't use his strength. Wen Di also didn't give Wei Zeng a chance to admit defeat, and quickly slashed a few swords, hitting both knees and abdomen successively, and smashed Wei Zeng's ass blossom. Wen Di controlled the strength, and although Wei Zeng's chest, abdomen, knees, and buttocks all hurt, it was obviously fine.
Wendy teased: "Your wooden staff swings very fiercely, but you must be able to hit it; My sword is slow, but it's also a move. It's useless to shrink your head. You're a little stronger, but you're still too bad. ”
"It seems that the more you resist, the harder you will be hit. And you, traitor. Looking at the laughing Wen Di and the laughing Gu Chayi, Wei Zeng said.
"You two come along." Wendi waved his sword and said nonchalantly.
Gu Cha's smile froze, and he glanced at Wei Zeng, and the two sides achieved a perfect reconciliation. Attacked Wendi, but the ending did not change. It's just that one less person laughs, and one more person is beaten and screams.
