35. Down

In the city of Quanzhou.

Zhang Xiaohu and Yi Sheng jumped out of the carriage, the two had just come from Guangdong, and were about to find a boat in Quanzhou to go to the Suzhou and Hangzhou regions, and then set off back to Luoyang from there.

This long journey is much more convenient and comfortable than traveling.

"This trip was not in vain."

Yi Sheng held his poisonous sword and said to Zhang Xiaohu beside him:

"In these two wide places, there are really Italian boxing gyms everywhere, although there are a little less expected, but I am lucky to meet someone who is really capable."

"Indeed."

Zhang Xiaohu tightened the Sanbao fist gloves in his hand, and he was also satisfied in his heart.

He said:

"Since Panyu learned snake boxing, and in Foshan to get monkey boxing, so roughly calculated, I have five ways of Yixing boxing.

If you can understand it well, boxing will make great progress.

The Foshan martial artist also taught me the five elements of this Yixing boxing, although it was only a superficial taste, but it was indeed a great gain. ”

"When I go back to Luoyang this time, I also want Brother Yijian to take a look at the progress of our waiting."

Yi Sheng laughed, and walked to the inn with Zhang Xiaohu.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard a commotion.

Yi Sheng looked back and saw that there were more than a dozen reckless men dressed in black on the street, coming from across the street, gathered outside a wine shop.

They shouted in the local dialect, and the people around them were terrified to avoid it.

It's like a clean street tiger.

Fuer gathered together with evil voices and evil spirits, as if he was coercing a down-and-out man who was drinking in a wine shop on the street.

"People from the local Haisha Gang."

Zhang Xiaohu glanced at the embroidery on those people's clothes, and when he saw that Yi Sheng was about to step forward, he reached out and grabbed him, saying:

"Second-rate gangs, I heard that they also do some pirate trading. Don't do too much, small victory, as the saying goes, a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, and there is a conflict with them here, or we will suffer. ”

"It's not that I'm troublesome, Xiaohu, look at that drunk!"

Yi Sheng held the hilt of the sword, lowered his voice, and said to Zhang Xiaohu:

"Look at him, doesn't he look like the sword monarch we saw in Changsha?"

"Liu Zhuoran?"

Zhang Xiaohu's face was full of surprise.

That Sword Monarch is recognized as the first place in the rivers and lakes.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a god with swordsmanship, in Changsha City, the two of them have seen Liu Zhuoran use the method of flying swords, and he alone fights seven people from the Ten Thousand Poison Gate.

And also win neatly.

How could such a cloud figure fall to such a point?

He looked carefully, and those people from the Haisha Gang covered his vision, but he could vaguely see that he was wearing a linen robe, which was indeed Liu Zhuoran's dress.

And the body shape is also very similar.

It's just that the scribe's bun in the past has now been scattered, and it looks extremely depressed.

"Although he and I don't know each other, everyone has fought the Demon Sect in Xiaoxiang anyway, and since they have fought together, they are comrades! Although we are only third-rate, how can we see him so humiliated? ”

Zhang Xiaohu clenched his fists.

The internal mechanism of the Three Treasures fist clattered, and spikes popped out of his fingers, and he said to Yi Sheng:

"Go, go help!

Don't use your sword, just hit it with a scabbard and disperse the group of Haisha Gang, there are people in this city, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out. ”

"Alas, don't worry!"

Yi Sheng grabbed Zhang Xiaohu who was about to come forward, he took out a black face towel from his waist bag, threw it to Zhang Xiaohu, and said:

"Don't be recognized, as you just said, if you get into trouble with the local gang, we will suffer."

Zhang Xiaohu tied up a face towel to cover most of his face.

He gave Yi Sheng a thumbs up, then rushed forward, clenched a heavy fist, and with one blow, he knocked the evil man who was pulling the drunken Liu Zhuoran's hair several steps away.

Yi Sheng over there also came with a sword, but he didn't use a poisonous sword, so he used a scabbard.

The Yi family's fast sword in one hand danced like the wind, and the sea sand gang people scattered out.

Zhang Xiaohu picked up Liu Zhuoran and shouted, and the two jumped into the dark alley of the city, and a group of people behind them chased and shouted and killed.

"The helper said it! Catch that guy! ”

The people of the Haisha Gang were chasing, and some people were shouting:

"I must torture out the location of the fairy mountain! Fireworks, gather people, don't let Liu Zhuoran run! ”

"Bang"

The red fireworks rushed into the sky, like a ball of flowers blooming, and Xiao Tie, who was carrying a heavy sword box on his back and was looking for his master's deceased in the city, suddenly looked up and saw the fireworks exploding in the air.

The Haisha Gang is only a second-rate force in Quanzhou, so naturally it will not customize the shape of the message pyrotechnics like the Seven Peerless Gates.

It is the most common fireworks that can be bought everywhere.

Xiao Tie grinned, reached out and touched the wine bag hanging from his waist, which contained the ashes of the folded mountain.

He said:

"Master, you Quanzhou is really interesting, in broad daylight, what are you doing with fireworks?

Chrysanthemums bloom like that, and it's pretty good. ”

He was in Quanzhou City at this time, at the door of a century-old teahouse, and he didn't pay attention to the fireworks above his head, and looked back at the old shopkeeper with a cane who was touching his beard, as if he was thinking and reminiscing.

After a few breaths, he said to Xiao Tie, who was asking in front of him:

"At the foot of Yutang Mountain outside the city, there is indeed a Zhejiazhuang, and the prescription is a few miles away from the surname. In your later life, you might as well go there and have a look, maybe you can find the relationship between your relatives.

But more than 60 years have passed, and it is estimated that the people of that year are almost dead. ”

"It's okay, thank you for telling me."

Xiao Tie bowed politely and gave a silver ticket as a thank you gift.

This is what the big brother taught.

In the world, money is a really good way to open the way.

"My master is in a hurry, and I, as a disciple, want my master to return to his roots."

He said something, causing the old man opposite to nod frequently.

A soft smile appeared on his wrinkled face, and he touched the silver ticket in his hand, and then said to Xiao Tie:

"Your baby is very tight, this is a major human matter, and there is no room for sloppiness, so the old man sent a guy to take you to the village."

Xiao Tie thanked him repeatedly.

Not long after, a local man drove a carriage and carried a small iron to the outside of Quanzhou City.

Yutang Mountain is some distance from Quanzhou City, and the guy spoke a local dialect, but Xiao Tie couldn't hear it clearly, so he sat in the carriage and closed his eyes to recuperate.

After drinking the wedding wine at Li Yijian's house that day, he said goodbye to his eldest brother and Qingqing, came to Quanzhou, and took the merchant ship of the Heluo Gang, and the journey was peaceful and smooth.

Ten days of hard work arrived in Quanzhou.

Before he left, Shen Qiu gave him a set of body forging exercises, called 'Holy Fire Casting Body Chapter', the exercises were supernatural, and Xiao Tie's practice was also making rapid progress.

Shen Qiu didn't hide Xiao Tie, this set of body forging techniques was obtained from the Holy Fire Sect's five-party protector Abed.

Xiao Tie didn't care about any of this.

He was born with strange bones and brute strength, and this kind of high-quality horizontal kung fu is naturally suitable for him.

It's just that I have encountered some bottlenecks that I don't understand in the past few days, and I need to ask my eldest brother about it.

He was thinking in the carriage that after returning to his roots for his master, he would rush back to Luoyang as soon as possible.

As soon as the carriage left Quanzhou City and drove on the wide avenue, it didn't go far when Xiao Tie heard a noise, and the guy in front of him also stopped.

He shouted a few words to Xiao Tie in the local dialect, with a hint of fear in his voice.

Xiao Tie couldn't hear it clearly, he could only hear words like "sea sand" and "robbing people".

He also thought that he had encountered bandits blocking the road, so he jumped out of the carriage, this Quanzhou city is prosperous in business, the place is quiet, but out of the city, but there are also indispensable "heroes" who rob houses.

Xiao Tie got out of the car, only to find out that it was not the bandits blocking the road.

Instead, a group of Jianghu guests were blocking a few outsiders on the outskirts of the city, and that group of people was violent, and the number was quite large, almost more than 30 people.

Holding knives, spears, harpoons and the like, he blocked the three of them on a broken tea stall on the side of the road, but they didn't dare to step forward.

Xiao Tie was tall, much taller than ordinary people, and his muscles were solid, like a mound of meat, and he stepped out of the carriage and made the thin fellow's heart settle.

He hid behind him and reached out and pulled Xiao Tie's sleeve, meaning not to mix.

"Huh?"

Xiao Tie blinked.

The person who made the fist was somewhat familiar with his boxing skills and body shape.

"Brother Xiaohu ahead?"

Xiao Tie shouted, and Zhang Xiaohu, who was swinging his fist and slamming the miscellaneous pieces of the Haisha Gang, heard the shout, so he looked back and saw Xiao Tie standing by the carriage more than ten zhang away.

Zhang Xiaohu was immediately overjoyed.

When they were in the land of Xiaoxiang, the two of them also fought side by side, and Zhang Xiaohu had a deep memory of this tall and brave young man, who was Brother Shen's companion.

That's a coincidence.

"Xiao Tie, come forward and help! These ninth-rate bullies in the city! ”

Zhang Xiaohu responded.

In fact, with the martial arts honed by him and Yi Sheng in the land of Xiaoxiang and the Demon Sect, it is not difficult to defeat these Haisha Gang.

The main thing is to protect Liu Zhuoran, so he is a little careless.

Seeing that it was Zhang Xiaohu in front of him, Xiao Tie did not hesitate, he followed Shen Qiu for so many roads, and was taught by Shen Qiuyan.

Walking the rivers and lakes to distinguish who is a friend and who is an enemy is the first priority.

Zhang Xiaohu is Li Yijian's sworn brother, and Li Yijian is a friend of his own group, and this Haisha Gang does not have a very good reputation in Quanzhou.

It's clear who to help and who to help at a glance.

Xiao Tie didn't move Juque, and rushed up like a bull with his fists.

Between the turbulence of the dragon and tiger battle qi in the body, a fist as big as a sand bowl smashed out, and knocked a swordsman who couldn't dodge a few feet away, smashed into the crowd, and knocked over several babbling guys.

Xiao Tie doesn't learn boxing.

But he was born with divine power, and he learned martial arts with Shen Qiu every day, Shen Qiu was proficient in boxing, which was tempered every day, so that Xiao Tie could make a fist, and he was also a tiger and a tiger, and he looked good.

He rushed into the crowd from behind like a tiger, punching and beating, causing the Haisha Gang to retreat in horror.

And Zhang Xiaohu and Yi Sheng also took the opportunity to raid, and in just a dozen breaths, a group of Haisha Gang people were beaten and abandoned their armor and fled.

There were still a dozen guys with broken bones lying on the ground.

It's annoying.

"I heard Li Yijian say, the two of you came to Liangguang to find boxing, why did you provoke the people of the Haisha Gang again?"

Xiao Tie threw those Haisha Gang people out of the tea shop one by one, and asked again.

Yi Sheng was also helping to throw people out of the tea shop, he snorted and said to Xiao Tie:

"Not for that guy yet."

"Who?"

Xiao Tie glanced back and saw that the drunk man was lying on the table, as if he was asleep, and as if he was enduring the pain, his whole body was trembling.

His hair was disheveled, his linen robe was stained with wine, and there was a smell of wine, and he looked very depressed.

"Who's that?"

Xiao Tie had never participated in the Battle of Suzhou, so naturally he had never seen Liu Zhuoran, he looked at Zhang Xiaohu and asked.

The latter said:

"Liu Zhuoran, Jianjun, the first in the list of rivers and lakes.

I fought the Demon Sect with me in the land of Xiaoxiang, and when I saw him being bullied by the Haisha Gang, I forced myself to come forward, even if I caused trouble for the Xiaotie brothers. ”

Xiao Tie's heart shook slightly, the name of the Sword Monarch, he had still heard of it, it was a disciple of Penglai.

In Master's letter, he specifically told him to stay as far away from the Penglai people as possible.

But this Liu Zhuoran, why did he fall like this all of a sudden?

"Don't bother, just a bunch of ruffians."

Xiao Tie thought for a moment, then waved his hand, he invited the two of them to sit in the carriage, and put Liu Zhuoran, who did not say a word, into the carriage, and continued to walk towards Zhejiazhuang.

He asked curiously:

"That Sword Monarch is the number one on the land list, how can he be reduced to being bullied by a third-rate force like the Haisha Gang?"

"I don't know."

Zhang Xiaohu sat cross-legged on the wheel, and said to Xiaotie helplessly:

"I waited for him to ask, he didn't say anything, Xiao Sheng showed him, it should be poisoned, the toxin has entered the internal organs, and all the martial arts have been abolished.

Even the famous Ling Xuan Sword was gone. ”

"So miserable?"

Xiao Tie glanced at Liu Zhuoran who was lying in the carriage, he was concerned, and asked:

"He doesn't have a best friend or anything? Everyone in the rivers and lakes knows his name, but he is down, and he has no personal funding? ”

"You're not familiar with him."

Yi Sheng held the poisonous sword, pursed his lips, and said to Xiao Tie:

"I'm waiting in the land of Xiaoxiang, but I've seen this Sword Monarch act with my own eyes.

He does not abide by the etiquette of the rivers and lakes, and kills both the demon sect and the decency.

As long as he has done evil deeds and is known by him, he will go to the door to seek justice.

I specifically read Yinlou's description of the Sword Monarch, he has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and the decency who has died in his hands is no less than that of the Demon Sect.

It is because of his strong martial arts that no one dares to seek revenge. But doing things like this, and being indifferent and arrogant, has always been alone, how can he have any true friends? ”

"In this way, this Liu Zhuoran is acting fairly?"

When Xiao Tie heard what Yi Sheng said, he thought of his father and pursued the hatred of the injustices in the world.

"Justice is justice, and I actually admire it in my heart."

Yi Sheng shrugged his shoulders and said to Xiao Tie:

"But Jianjun treats people indifferently and alienated, I have seen him in Changsha City, and even the predecessors of the rivers and lakes are not very kind to him.

In the land of Xiaoxiang, he has always traveled alone, and rarely joins forces with others unless it is an urgent matter. There are also rumors that this Sword Monarch is an immortal family, looking down on worldly warriors, and is very arrogant.

But I don't think so, this sword lord is just too lazy to deal with us ordinary people.

Arrogance is there.

But to say that he looks down on people is a bit too much, Xiaohu and I have seen it with our own eyes, he is very attentive to those who are killed and injured innocent. ”

Xiao Tie nodded.

Although this Liu Zhuoran is a disciple of Penglai and should be kept away, at this time, he has a good impression of what Liu Zhuoran has done.

It's a little similar to his father and his eldest brother.

Don't ask about good and evil, just look at good and evil.

Xiao Tie asked again:

"So what are you going to do with him? Take him back to Luoyang? ”

"I don't have a plan yet."

Yi Sheng glanced at Zhang Xiaohu, who rubbed his wrist and said:

"But if you want to help, you will help to the end.

If he can't find his family locally, he will take him back to Luoyang, Brother Yijian is full of righteousness, and he can't bear to see the heroes in the rivers and lakes down, so he will definitely take him in. ”

"No, no!"

As soon as Yi Sheng finished speaking, Liu Zhuoran, who seemed to be drunk, opened his eyes, his tone was weak, but stubborn.

He grabbed the carriage and was about to get out of the car, saying:

"Put me down and leave me in Quanzhou City, don't be nosy."

"You're crazy!"

Yi Sheng suppressed Liu Zhuoran, who was struggling, and said sharply:

"That Haisha Gang is looking for you, and you have no martial arts, if you just leave it like this, I'm afraid you won't even lose your life."

"Leave me behind!"

Liu Zhuoran was distributed, but he became a waste, and he really couldn't resist the three people in front of him.

In desperation, he could only explain in a dumb voice:

"I understand the three righteousness, but I still have my family.

If they can't find me, they will go to my family, and I am grateful for your help, but if it is because of me, and my family suffers, this is it"

His voice was bleak, and his tone was sad.

Let the three people next to them have relatives.

The number one on this list is rampant in the rivers and lakes, how majestic?

But now that he is in trouble, in order to protect the safety of his family, he has to use himself as bait.

He has been drinking and getting drunk in Quanzhou City for the past few days, and he is afraid that he has been forced to have no choice but to make this decision.

As long as he is still in Quanzhou City, those Jianghu people who have thoughts about him will go to him first, and the Liu family can also have more time to take precautions.

"I'll ask you a few more questions."

Xiao Tie didn't let Liu Zhuoran get out of the car, he said coldly:

"When I ask clearly, it's not too late for you to leave."
