Chapter 071: On the banks of the Hanshui River
Wudang Mountain is not far from Butterfly Valley.
One is in Hubei and the other is in Anhui, living next to each other.
Just like the two famous factions in the world, the Wudang faction and the Shaolin faction, also live next to each other, one in Hubei and the other in Henan, and the two are only a few days away.
From Wudang Mountain to Butterfly Valley, due to the topography, it is faster to take the waterway, take the east by boat, and arrive in a few days.
Tang Xiu took a boat to the east and traveled to the bank of the Han River on this day.
The waves of the Han River are surging, the small ferry boat is shaking, and Tang Xiu is also thinking like waves, thinking that this is not Zhou Zhiruo's "origin"?
Zhou Zhiruo is the daughter of a fisherman on the bank of the Hanshui River.
It's just that I don't know what will happen to this woman's fate after the landing game of all worlds comes?
He was wandering out of the world when he suddenly heard a loud voice on the river coming from afar: "Hurry up and stop the boat, hand over the child obediently, and the Buddha will spare your life, otherwise it will be no wonder that you are ruthless!" ”
The voice came from the waves, and it was clear to the ears, and it was obvious that the internal strength of the caller was not weak.
Tang Xiu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said in his heart that it wouldn't be such a coincidence, right?
He stood on the ferry, turned his head to look, and saw two river boats rowing like flying.
On the tip of a small boat in front of him, there sat a big bearded man, paddling with his hands on the oars, and in the cabin sat a man and a woman.
There was a larger ship in the back, and in the boat stood four monks, as well as seven or eight Mongolian military attachés.
The military attachés picked up the planks and helped paddle the water.
The bearded man was very strong, and as soon as the oars were pulled, the small boat rushed to the sky, but after all, there were many people on the boat behind, and the two boats were getting closer and closer.
After a short time, the military attachés and monks bent their bows and arrows and shot at the big man.
But I heard the feather arrows breaking through the air and whining.
I saw that the big man rowed the boat with his left hand, raised the wooden oar with his right hand, and shot down the arrows one by one.
On the top of this big man's head, Hao Ran has a "level 45" character, and he is also a first-class master in the rivers and lakes.
Tang Xiu looked at the captain and chuckled, "Boatman, go up." ”
"Shao, Shaoxia, you ...... Don't laugh. "When the captain saw the feather arrows flying around, he was already so frightened that his hands and feet were sore, and it was too late to desperately stay away, where did he dare to meet it?
At this time, I could only hear the screams of "ah", and the boy of the two children, a man and a woman, had been hit by an arrow in his vest and died with a whimper.
When the bearded man saw this, he was shocked, he couldn't hold the wooden oar in his hand, fell into the middle of the river, and did not move when he boarded the boat, and even took him to the shoulder and back with arrows one after another, looking extremely miserable.
The big boat behind caught up in an instant, and seven or eight Mongolian military attaches and monks jumped onto the boat.
Although the bearded man was hit by an arrow, he was unyielding, punching and kicking, and struggling to resist.
Tang Xiu glanced at his father-in-law helplessly, and shouted: "Tartar stop, don't commit murder!" ”
Before the words fell, he jumped hard, and this leap used all his strength, but it was the kung fu in the Nine Yin True Scripture, and he jumped out of four or five zhang.
It is more explosive than Tiyun Zong, but it is less light than Tiyun Zong.
After crossing four or five zhang, Tang Xiu stepped down a little on the surface of the river, used the kung fu of Tiyun Zong, and his body flew into the air, and then pounced on the boat from the air.
This light hand shocked everyone on the boat.
The Mongolian military attachés and the four monks, seeing him like a flying general descending from the sky, were all frightened and subconsciously stopped.
The leading military attache shouted: "We are arresting the remnants of the Yuanzhou Demon Sect and the traitors of the imperial court!" What are you doing? ”
When Tang Xiu heard "Yuanzhou Demon Sect Anti-Thief", his heart turned, and he secretly said that it was a coincidence.
The military attache looked at him, suddenly made a look, and said, "Dare to ask the young man's surname?" ”
Before Tang Xiu could answer, two Mongolian officers suddenly raised their long knives and slashed down at his shoulders.
These two knives are not fast, and the distance between the boats is so close that there is nowhere to dodge.
Tang Xiu sneered, his wrist trembled slightly, and the scabbard had already touched two steel knives, but he heard the sound of "bell" twice, and the two steel knives had been broken into two.
Before the Heavenly Sword was unsheathed, it showed its might.
A group of Mongolian military attaches and four monks were all shocked.
"This, this is the Heavenly Sword! Are you Wudang Excalibur!? ”
The bearded man was drenched in blood, but he couldn't help but scream in shock, shock, and surprise.
Tang Xiu's performance at the 100-year-old birthday banquet of Wudang Patriarch Zhang Sanfeng has already spread all over the world like crazy. Untie the head of the Emei faction to exterminate Shitai's sword in the sky, kill the Shaolin monk Kongzhi, shock the heroes, etc., just like a legend of the rivers and lakes.
The bearded man didn't expect that he would meet the famous Wudang Divine Sword here, or in this situation.
Tang Xiu glanced at the bearded man, nodded slightly, admitted his identity, and then did not leave his hand alone, and in the sound of "Cangchangchang", the sword was unsheathed.
He just swept away with his sword, and many Mongolian military attaches and four monks were either killed immediately, or jumped into the river screaming and fleeing for their lives.
The level of these people is not high, even the four Mongolian monks, they are only in their forties, and they are not as high as the "45-level" bearded man, but there are many people and sharp weapons with bows and arrows.
Tang Xiu put away the sword and returned it to the sheath, the bearded man was shocked and envious, knelt down on the deck and kowtowed, and said: "The villain often meets spring, thank you Tang Shaoxia for saving your life!" ”
Spring is always in the spring!
Tang Xiuxin said, it's really him! This person is not only a person in the Ming Sect, but also a famous founder of the Ming Dynasty in history.
Tang Xiu helped him up and said with a smile: "I am up and down in Wudang, and the whole ancestor Zhang Zhenren has taught me, if I encounter the Yuan soldiers who are wreaking havoc and doing evil, I will never tolerate it!" ”
Chang Yuchun can't help but admire, Wudang patriarch Zhang Zhenren, that is a fairy-like character. And he didn't expect that the world-famous Wudang Divine Sword would be so polite to him, especially after hearing the name of the "Demon Sect".
He originally thought that the other party would walk away, disdainful of making friends with people like him in the "Demon Sect".
Mingjiao has always had very strict rules and abstained from eating meat, which has been the case since the Tang Dynasty.
At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Fang La, the great leader of the Ming Sect, started an incident in eastern Zhejiang, when the officials and people called it "the Demon Sect of Eating Vegetables", eating vegetables and serving the Demon King, are the two major laws of the Demon Sect, which have been passed down for hundreds of years.
Not only is the government extremely strict with the Demon Sect, but the people in the martial arts are also very discriminatory against it.
Even before, Chang Yuchun thought that after the Mongolian military attache told his details, if he was replaced by other famous and decent people, he would definitely leave on the spot, how could he come to the rescue?
The Mongolian military attache also looked at Tang Xiu's expression, and saw that he had no intention of rejecting the Demon Sect, so he suddenly gave his subordinates a look and asked them to make a surprise attack.
Tang Xiu asked again, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Chang Yuchun said: "Tang Shaoxia, you have a great grace to save my life, not to mention that you already know my origin, so you don't have to hide it." The villain is a Mingjiao person who serves Mingzun, and the court government looks down on us when we are heinous, and the chivalrous way of the famous and decent people looks down on us, and even the underworld people who rob homes and houses, kill people and set fires, also say that we are demons and monsters. Engong knew the origin of my identity, but he still came to the rescue, this kindness, I really don't know how to repay it......"
Chang Yuchun told the origin of the matter slowly.
It turned out that Zhou Ziwang, the eldest disciple of the "Maitreya Sect" in the Ming Sect, rose up in Yuanzhou, Jiangxi Province a few years ago, established himself as the emperor, and the country was called "Zhou", and was soon extinguished by the Yuan army, and Zhou Ziwang was captured and beheaded.
The Maitreya sect is the same as the Heavenly Eagle Sect, although it is a faction of its own, but it has not separated from the Ming Sect, and it is considered a branch of the Ming Sect.
Even when Zhou Ziwang was in trouble, Yin Tianzheng, the leader of the Heavenly Eagle Sect, once supported him in Zhejiang.
Chang Yuchun was Zhou Ziwang's general, and after Zhou Ziwang was captured and beheaded, he escaped to protect the "little lord".
Speaking of this, Chang Yuchun stepped forward to pick up the boy who was killed by the arrow, with tears in his eyes, and said, "Little lord...... The little lord shot them to death. ”
This child is Zhou Ziwang's son.
Tang Xiu looked at the little girl who was alive, and the little girl threw herself on top of a male corpse in the cabin, just crying: "Daddy! Daddy! ”
Look at the outfit of the corpse, it should be the boatman, who has been killed by the Tartars.
Tang Xiu took a closer look at the little girl, and saw that she was about ten years old, with old clothes and bare feet.
Tang Xiu asked, "Little girl, what's your name?" ”
The girl was still weeping, pitiful, and responded: "My surname is Zhou, and my name is Zhou Zhiruo." ”
Sure enough, it was her!
