Chapter Thirty-Seven: Recruiting Relatives in a Contest (I)
"Brother Ling, what should we do?"
As soon as the four ghosts of the Yellow River left, Guo Jing couldn't wait to ask Ling Muyun. At this time, Guo Jing was still just a fledgling kid after all, although his martial arts were much stronger than the original under Ling Muyun's training, but the lack of experience was not taught by others, so he instinctively sought solutions from others when encountering problems.
Ling Muyun said nonchalantly: "What is this, just go to the appointment on time at noon tomorrow, then the four ghosts of the Yellow River are not your subordinates, what are you afraid of." ”
"But didn't they say that they came this time to write a war letter for their uncle? I heard from several masters that the master of the four ghosts of the Yellow River is Sha Tongtian, the dragon king of the Ghost Gate, and he is also a well-known ruthless character in the rivers and lakes, and his junior brother is probably not weak, can we deal with it? Guo Jing asked with a little worry.
Ling Muyun glanced at Guo Jing and said with a smile: "Brother Guo, what do you say we should do?" Don't go to the appointment and run away halfway? ”
Guo Jing suddenly shook his head like a rattle: "Then how can I do it, I have already agreed, if I don't go, wouldn't it be untrustworthy?" Don't you want to make our fellow citizens laugh at us? If I let a few masters know, I will definitely scold me for being useless. ”
Ling Muyun said: "Brother Guo, you are wrong, keeping promises sometimes depends on the object, not all credits have to be kept." There is a good saying, leave the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, people must know how to advance and retreat in order to be smart and wise, if you know that it is a trap to jump in, it is not called trustworthiness, but stupidity. ”
Guo Jing looked at Ling Muyun suspiciously: "Then Brother Ling, do you mean that we won't go to the appointment tomorrow?" It's not good. ”
Ling Muyun smiled slightly and said, "That's not necessary, I'm just telling you this truth, lest you be too sincere and be taken advantage of in the future." As for tomorrow's noon date, we must go, even the Ghost Gate Dragon King Sha Tongtian didn't look at it in my eyes, not to mention that it was just one of his junior disciples, a character that could be sent at will, why should I ruin my letter? ”
"Oh." Guo Jing scratched his head, he understood now, according to Ling Muyun's meaning, those appointments that could be won would go, and those that could not be won would not go. It's just that Ling Muyun's concept seems to conflict with the integrity and commitment that his six masters have taught him since he was a child, making him feel a little at a loss. But fortunately, tomorrow's date is going to go, which does not contradict his concept, and listening to Ling Muyun's words, he is also very sure of Ming's appointment, so he doesn't think about it.
The appointment was agreed, and the two went back to their rooms to rest. The next morning, when they got up, they had breakfast in the inn, and then went back to their rooms to recuperate, and when it was near noon, they paid for their meals, rode out of town, and rode out of town, toward the west.
After walking ten miles to the west, I saw a big pine forest, the branches and leaves covered the sky, and the gloomy forest could not be seen dozens of steps away. Ling Muyun and Guo Jing dismounted and entered the pine forest, and walked along the forest path, but there was still no trace of the enemy, and when they were strange, they suddenly heard someone in front of them shouting angrily: "Little bastard, bastard, bastard......
Ling Muyun and Guo Jing walked closer to take a look, and couldn't help but be shocked and amused, only to see the four ghosts of the Yellow River hanging high above the four big trees, everyone was tied hand and foot behind their backs, swinging in the air, struggling for their lives, but there was no place to borrow, angry and anxious, there was endless scolding. As for the uncle who asked them to come, he was nowhere to be found.
Guo Jing smiled: "Are you swinging here?" Fun, right? ”
Ling Muyun couldn't help but laugh secretly when he listened to it, seeing that Jing usually looked silly and loyal, who would have thought that this honest man would be even more powerful if he laughed at people.
"Little bunny, you fart, we didn't swing." "His grandmother's, we were plotted by someone." "Boy, if you have the ability, let us down." …… As soon as Guo Jing's words came out, he immediately provoked a burst of shouts and angry scolding from the four ghosts of the Yellow River. And as soon as the four ghosts of the Yellow River were excited, they struggled more violently, and the swaying became even more powerful, and the more ridiculous they became.
Ling Muyun's heart lit up when he saw this scene, and he already knew why the four ghosts of the Yellow River were like this. It seems that despite the addition of his unexpected factor, Huang Rong still took the lead to help clean up the four ghosts of the Yellow River as he did in the original history, and led away the three-headed Jiaohou Tonghai. It's just that in the original history, Huang Rong did it to help Guo Jing, but this time I don't know if Huang Rong wants to help Guo Jing or himself.
After figuring out the reason, Ling Muyun was not interested in staying here longer, so he called Guo Jing and left. Guo Jing was actually worried that the uncle of the Four Ghosts of the Yellow River might come back at any time, and if he was blocked, it would inevitably be a fierce battle, so he immediately nodded and followed Ling Muyun to Wang Linwai.
As soon as the four ghosts of the Yellow River saw that Guo Jing and Ling Muyun were leaving, they shouted even more vigorously: "Good boy, don't run, if you have a kind, put us down, let's fight alone and decide whether we win or lose." If the four of us were to rush together, we would not be heroes. ”
Ling Muyun turned around and glared at them, and snorted coldly: "You four shut up for me, if you want to be verbose again, I will make the four of you become dead." ”
Since he was slapped by Ling Muyun only yesterday, the four ghosts of the Yellow River knew how powerful Ling Muyun was, and they were still quite afraid of him in their hearts, and when they saw him like this, they immediately closed their mouths and didn't dare to make any more noise. For fear that he would annoy Ling Muyun by continuing to shout, he really slaughtered them, although it was uncomfortable to be tied up like this, it was much better than dying.
Seeing that the four ghosts of the Yellow River were clean, Ling Muyun and Guo Jing continued to walk outside the pine forest. On the way, Guo Jing kept wondering who was helping, and came to ask Ling Muyun, although Ling Muyun understood it in his heart, he didn't know what he was talking about, so as not to expose his ability as an "unpredictable prophet".
Ling Muyun and Guo Jing got out of the pine forest, got on their respective mounts, and chose the road to continue to the southeast. The two stayed overnight all the way, and on this day they came to Yanjing City, the central capital. This is the capital of the Jin Kingdom, and it is also the first prosperous place in the world at that time, even if it is the old Beijing Bianliang of the Song Dynasty and the new capital of Lin'an, it is also inferior.
Because Ling Muyun was born in a wealthy family in Lin'an, he is well-informed, but Guo Jing grew up in the desert since he was a child, where has he seen such weather? I saw the Red Mansion Painting Pavilion, the embroidered Zhumen, the carved cars competed, and the horses galloped. High cabinet giant shop, full of strange goods and foreign objects; Tea shop wine shop, but see Chinese clothes beads. It's really full of flowers, and the drums are noisy; Jin Cuiyao said, Luo Qi is fragrant. Only dazzled him, a young man who had never seen the world, and nine out of ten things he saw didn't know what they were, just like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden.
Ling Muyun and Guo Jing first found an inn to live in, put all the horses and luggage in the inn, and then the two came out to find a restaurant to have a meal, and then went to the street to wander around. After all, it's not easy to come to this prosperous place where all directions gather, how can you not take a good stroll and visit?
The two of them walked around the long street, and after a short period of time, they suddenly heard the noise of people in front of them, and the sound of cheers was endless. Guo Jing became curious, turned his head to Ling Muyun and said, "Brother Ling, let's go in and have a look." After speaking, he didn't care about Ling Muyun's response, and struggled towards the crowd.
Seeing this scene, Ling Muyun shook his head with a smile, and then squeezed into the crowd. Ling Muyun and Guo Jing are both equipped with superior martial arts, especially Ling Muyun's martial arts have already reached the first-class realm, how can these ordinary people who watch the excitement squeeze past the two of them? Therefore, although the crowd was crowded, they were quickly squeezed to the front of the crowd.
Come to the front of the crowd and take a look, only to see a vacant lot in the middle, a pennant is inserted underground, red flowers on a white background, embroidered with four golden words of "competition to recruit relatives", the pennant flutters and flies in the wind, there is an iron gun on the left side of the pennant, and two iron halberds are inserted on the right side. There are two people in the group who are fighting lively, one of them is a young girl in red, and the other is a burly man in his thirties.
I saw that the girl had a law in every gesture, obviously her martial arts were not weak, and although the big man was born tall and strong, her martial arts were mediocre. The two fought for a few rounds, only to see the figure of the girl in red turn to the back of the big man and punch the big man in the back. Don't look at the girl's age, although she is not very old, her strength is really not small, and she beat the big man forward and staggered to the ground, fell to the ground, and got up with a face full of shame, and squeezed into the crowd, and the spectators cheered and cheered.
Seeing this scene, Ling Muyun's eyes suddenly lit up: "Recruiting relatives through martial arts? This girl can't be Mu Nianci! ”
