Today, Zhang Xuan can be described as having a bad time, first being treated coldly by the head of the Yang family, and then being blasted out of the house by Yang Qi's wife, and the seven-star sword was also thrown out.

Zhang Xuan learned from a Yang clan that Yang Qi had not returned home for more than ten years, and he married a three-room concubine in Luoyang, but he ignored his wife for a long time, and their marriage had long existed in name only.

The Yang clansman who took him in was named Yang Qingming, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, skinny as wood, as thin as a bamboo pole, as if a gust of wind could blow him down, and had not yet married a wife, living alone in a hut.

When Yang Qingming heard that bandits would attack, he was nervous, and Zhang Xuan's tall and burly figure gave him a sense of security.

He poured a bowl of water for Zhang Xuan and said with a smile: "Zhang Gongzi doesn't have to go to his heart, that mother-in-law is this evil temper, as if the Yang family owes her money and doesn't pay it back, if it weren't for the head of the family who sees her pitiful and has nowhere to go, he would have driven her away a long time ago." ”

Where would Zhang Xuan care about Yang Qi's wife's attitude, he almost forgot what Yang Qi looked like, Yang Qi's wife would be better off not accepting this sword, and he was reluctant to give it!

Zhang Xuan was concerned about how to find out Yang Xuangan's whereabouts from the head of the Yang family, which was the purpose of his coming to Yangjiazhuang.

"Zhang Gongzi, please drink water?"

Zhang Xuan saw that the porcelain bowl was full of cracks, and there was a big hole missing on the edge, which was dirty, where was he willing to drink this kind of water, so he asked with a smile: "Is Prince Qingming also a disciple of the main hall?" ”

"Almost! But my father is a concubine, belongs to the Lu County branch, in the family has no status, three years ago my father died, I obeyed my father's will to return to Huayin ancestral land to live, plus I am not in good health, can only rely on a little money from the family to live, you look at the home furnishings to know, poor jingling. ”

Zhang Xuan originally wanted to ask him a little bit of news about Yang Xuangan, but when he said this, he dispelled his thoughts, would people who didn't even have a complete bowl for entertaining guests to drink water, know about Yang Xuangan's whereabouts such a family secret?

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and several Yang clan members stood at the door and said, "Qingming, the head of the family has ordered all men under the age of forty to participate in the protection of the village, you can come too!" ”

Yang Qingming was startled, and hurriedly stammered: "Two big brothers, my situation is special, you all know it, how can I ..... Can you go to the sword dance and sword? ”

"But the head of the family didn't say that you can be special, or you should explain it to the head of the house yourself!"

Although Yang Qingming is thin and weak, he is not stupid at all, he knows that the head of the family will definitely not give him special treatment, even if he does not fight, he must let him participate in the transportation of materials and the like, in case he is accidentally shot by a stray arrow......

He was flustered and confused in his heart, and looked at Zhang Xuan pitifully, but Zhang Xuan's heart moved, maybe this was an opportunity, he stood up and walked forward and said with a smile: "Why don't I come for Brother Qingming!" ”

The room was too dark, and several people didn't notice Zhang Xuan, and a tall and big guy suddenly appeared, and several Yang clan members were startled.

"You're—"

"I'm the brother of Brother Qingming, just from Luoyang, big brother, right!"

Yang Qingming seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and said continuously: "Yes! Right! He is my old brother, named Zhang Xuan, who has just come from Luoyang, and he can replace me. ”

Several Yang clansmen looked Zhang Xuan up and down, only to see that he was tall and burly, with strong and powerful arms, and a heavy knife at his waist.

In fact, everyone didn't want Yang Qingming, a leprosy ghost, to guard the village, not only was it useless, but it would also drag others down, everyone looked at each other and smiled: "Of course you can!" Welcome Zhang Gongzi, please come with us. ”

Zhang Xuan picked up the sword behind his back, smiled at Yang Qingming and nodded, and quickly followed several Yang disciples towards the outside of the courtyard.

Yang Qingming looked at Zhang Xuan's back and walked away, and couldn't help but laugh proudly, fortunately he was clever and brought him to his house, otherwise he really wouldn't have escaped today's catastrophe.

．．．．．．．

As the night wore on, Jang Hyun sat in the corner of a large house in the ancestral hall, and in addition to his own weapons, he was given a spear and a pair of bows and arrows.

Compared with Wang Bodang's tough iron spear, this ash pole spear looks very rough, it seems to be a spear shaft made of hard jujube wood, the spear head is made of pig iron, and the sharpness is not enough, Zhang Xuan didn't like it, until he threw it aside.

However, he was a little interested in bows and arrows, which were the standard eight-bucket bow in the army, using two-foot-long arrows, but unfortunately, the eight-bucket bow was too light for him, and he was bored after playing for less than half an hour.

Zhang Xuan looked at the other people in the big house again, there were about thirty people, there were Yang family children, and there were also ordinary family members, almost all of them were sleeping in a groggy state, and spent an afternoon resting like this, as if the Yang family head meant to save his strength for the night.

But what about training? Zhang Xuan thought it was incredible, hundreds of clansmen who had never fought before faced the attack of the rogues, and the top priority was not to practice various defensive tactics, but to sleep and rest, so that the soldiers would not be in a mess when they started a war?

"Don't think nonsense, everything has a family master!"

The Yang disciple who slept next to him muttered in a daze, turned over, and when he was about to fall asleep, he said vaguely, "Whether there are bandits or not is not necessarily!" ”

Zhang Xuan pulled out his battle knife and gently stroked the extremely sharp blade, what others did had nothing to do with him, he didn't want to throw his life here.

Just when Zhang Xuan was also dazed and about to fall asleep, a shout suddenly came from outside: "There is a situation!" ”

Zhang Xuan was suddenly awakened, and when he stood up, he saw that the rest of the clansmen were still asleep, and he couldn't help shouting anxiously: "Everyone get up!" ”

Everyone was awakened at this time, and many people asked in a daze, "What's wrong?" ”

'Ahh

There was another scream outside, which was particularly terrible, and suddenly everyone was awakened, everyone looked for their shoes and weapons, someone accidentally knocked over the oil lamp, and the room was dark, screaming, scolding, and chaos.

Jang Hyun lit a small oil lamp by the window, and the room immediately became dimly lit, and the chaos eased slightly.

At this time, a person ran in from the courtyard, his name was Yang Qing, he was the concubine of the main hall of the Yang family, and the leader of their house, he was so anxious that he shouted: "Come with me to guard the grain depot!" ”

Zhang Xuan followed everyone and rushed out of the room, everyone saw a corpse lying in the corner of the wall, it should be the person who screamed just now, everyone else shook their heads and sighed, and then left in a hurry.

Only Zhang Xuan found a clue, he slowly stepped forward, the person who was shot to death was wearing thick leather armor and a helmet on his head, as if he was the head of the family he saw at noon.

A wolf's tooth arrow hit him in the throat, which made Zhang Xuan secretly surprised, such an accurate archery, could it be an ordinary rogue bandit?

Moreover, this is the ancestral hall in the center of Zhuangzi, and it is at least two or three hundred steps away from the edge of the nearest village, how can there be a bow and arrow with such a long range? There is only one possibility, someone has already infiltrated the village.

At this time, Yang Wenxian, the head of the family, rushed into the compound with more than a dozen family members, and saw that Zhang Xuan was still in the courtyard and did not move, so he couldn't help but roar angrily, "Why don't you go out yet?" ”

"The head of the family, there is already a powerful enemy who has infiltrated the village!" Jang Hyun said calmly.

Yang Wenxian was stunned, "You..... How do you know? ”

Zhang Xuan pointed to the corpse, "Does the head of the family think that the enemy's arrows will shoot at the ancestral hall?" ”

This is actually a very simple truth, but no one thought of it in the chaos, let alone Zhang Xuan's calmness.

Yang Wenxian suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly ordered left and right, "Hurry up and find the enemy spies!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of bowstrings in the distance, Zhang Xuan almost instinctively threw himself down Yang Wenxian, he just reacted, since this person shot the head of the family, would he not do it in the face of the head of the Yang family?

A wolf's tooth arrow almost grazed Yang Wenxian's scalp and plunged strongly into a big tree next to him, scaring Yang Wenxian into a cold sweat.

Jaang Xuan's eyesight was so good that he had already seen a dark shadow, hiding in a big tree fifty paces away near the wall.

He was furious in his heart, and rushed towards the tree with his knife, but the black shadow realized that something was wrong, and jumped off the wall and ran wildly, Zhang Xuan climbed up the wall, jumped over, and chased deep into an alley.

Yang Wenxian reacted at this time, this young man saved his life just now!

Looks like you've seen him there? Yang Wenxian thought for a while, Zhang Xuan's tall figure made him suddenly remember, wasn't that young man just now the offspring who sent the sword to Yang Qi in the morning?

．．．．．．．

Jang Hyun runs all the way, he has practiced the art of tracking in the special forces team, and has an unusual sensitivity to sound, and he can accurately grasp the target in all kinds of noise.

No matter how the other party runs, only the sound of footsteps is there, he is staring at it, the ancestral hall is located in the middle of the mountain, the terrain is bumpy, when Zhang Xuan rushed to a courtyard, the footsteps suddenly disappeared, Zhang Xuan immediately became vigilant, step by step towards the courtyard gate on the other side.

It was an empty courtyard, surrounded by walls, with only two doors, east and west, and the other party could only hide behind the east door.

"Stop, where to run!"

Zhang Xuan shouted, seeing that his body was about to rush out of the door, at this moment, his body shrank back sharply, only to see the cold light flashing, and a sharp short sword stabbed in front of his eyes, but a sword pierced the air.

Zhang Xuan sneered, punched out hard, and hit the opponent's arm hard, only 'click!' There was a broken snap, followed by a wail, and the shadow fell to the ground, the bow and arrow in his other hand thrown a few steps away.

Zhang Xuan stepped forward and stepped on the assassin's head, but unexpectedly found that the other party's figure was very familiar, skinny, he looked down carefully, and suddenly shouted, "Why are you?" ”

Under the moonlight, the murderer turned out to be the weak Yang Qingming, Zhang Xuan was stunned for a moment, his steel teeth were clenched, and his feet were hard, "Say!" Who the hell are you? ”

Although Yang Qingming's arm was broken, he was still very tough, and he scolded in a low voice: "The surname is Zhang, I advise you not to wade into this muddy water, otherwise you don't know how you died!" ”

"Tell me first, who are you?"

"It's scared to death when you say it, Lao Tzu can't change his surname, General Yuwen is under the command of the Eighth Taibao Yuwen Qingming, and there is a famous arrow skeleton, have you heard of it?"

Although Zhang Xuan hadn't heard of any magic arrow skeletons, he understood the cause and effect, this Yang Qingming should have been sent by Yuwenshu to the Yang family three years ago, and it is estimated that Yang Xuangan's rebellion was the first information that this person discovered.

Zhang Xuan realized in his heart, and said coldly: "It seems that today is not a rogue attack, it is you who attacked the Yang family, right?" ”

"Count yourself smart, let me go, you can leave Yangjiazhuang immediately, I don't remember your broken arm, otherwise-"

"Otherwise what, or you're going to kill me? It's a pity that Lao Tzu doesn't eat you! ”

Zhang Xuan raised his horizontal knife and stabbed it down, Yang Qingming screamed miserably, and immediately died of anger.
