Chapter 44 Disputes
In the spring of the twenty-fourth year of Yong'an, Binzhou City.
At the beginning of February, the spring is cold, and the people who make a living in the fireworks market do not dare to reduce their clothes, and there are already young people standing shirtless in the Osprey dock near the sea and water.
The older one was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with dark skin and a thin physique, wearing straw sandals and short beats, like a merchant running in the mountains, holding a long flat pole, dancing vigorously.
The person who confronted him was even younger, looking no more than twelve or thirteen years old, nearly half a cut shorter, holding a pair of Emei thorns with both hands, relying on his small and flexible body, he couldn't help but circle around the opponent, dozens of rounds down, his steps were still steady, but the onlookers felt dizzy.
At this moment, suddenly heard a light drink, the little boy looked at the gap, shook his arms and attacked forward, holding the thorn in his left hand to hold the flat burden, others have not seen clearly, another Emei thorn has approached the waist of the black thin boy, and he is about to break into the flesh, the latter is not afraid of danger, the flat burden moves in the palm of his hand, and suddenly opens the little boy's left hand, and the flat head falls down, hitting his right wrist hard, this time the pain is terrible, the little boy can't bear the pain, the Emei thorn comes out of his hand, and before he retreats, there is a strong force from the shoulder, and the body is kneeling down, and his knees hit the ground hard.
At this point, the winner has been decided.
A group of people watching the excitement around suddenly made a fuss, some clapped and laughed, some people frowned, and some people booed.
"You've lost!" The thin black boy hung his eyes, looking very proud, "Quick, willing to lose the bet, call me a father and let you go!" β
"Phew!" The little boy was pressed by the flat shoulder and neck acupoint, half of his body lost strength, and his mouth was still hard.
"Can't wipe your face?" The thin black boy rolled his eyes and laughed, "That's it, if you don't want to kneel down and call Dad, just run around the osprey dock, shouting as you run...... Well, how about shouting 'Fang Yongyan is a useless waste'? β
"You-"
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings were stunned at first, and some of them were the first to react, and anger appeared on their faces, and they rolled up their sleeves and were about to step forward, but they were dragged and tripped by the rest of the people, and they could only scold, but although this place was in the osprey dock, it was far away from the central water village, and it couldn't make trouble for a while, not to mention that the oldest person in the scene was not as old as the weak crown, as long as he didn't set fire to kill people, even if he attracted the elders, he was only stubborn and disdainful of discipline.
Hearing this, the little boy's face turned red, obviously angry, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Lao Tzu called your grandmother a leg!" β
"What's the matter, the disciples of Linyuan Sect are not very capable and thick-skinned, and they are willing to gamble and not admit defeat!" The thin black boy deliberately shouted loudly, "Everyone is witnessing, it is this kid who took the initiative to fight with me, and said that whoever loses will do one thing for the winner, and now he doesn't admit it!" β
The group of people with him cooperated one after another, and for a while there were boos, and the rest of the people were flushed, angry and embarrassed, and one of the girls couldn't help but say: "Who said that our Linyuanmen did not admit it, you deliberately took advantage of this to make things difficult and call him ...... It's too much! β
This dispute was not originally a big deal.
The same is one of the four major sects of Baidao, Linyuanmen and Haitian Gang are world friends, and so Fang Huaiyuan's son inherited his father's business and became the leader of today's martial arts alliance, he first married Jiang Hanlu, the sister of Jiang Tianyang, the leader of the Haitian Gang, to continue the string, and later kissed and kissed, Fang Huaiyuan's only son Fang Yongyan and Jiang Tianyang's youngest daughter Jiang Yanluo were childhood sweethearts, and now they are cousins who are not related to blood, and they were engaged three years ago.
In a hurry for three years, the years are like a shuttle, Fang Yongyan is nineteen years old this year, Jiang Yanluo is also seventeen years old, and he should get married in another year, Fang Huaiyuan has shouldered two positions over the years, and he has aged faster than others, and it is inevitable that he is anxious about his children's affairs.
As everyone knows, although Fang Yongyan is a rare jade boy, but this jade is very crisp, he has been a sick seedling since he was a child, and after many years of recuperation by famous doctors and medicines, it is only slightly better, no different from those weak scholars, Jiang Tianyang dragged his daughter to marry without any nostalgia, not to mention that the young and vigorous disciples in the gang regarded Jiang Yanluo as a Lingbo fairy, seeing that she was going to marry this sick and weak son who had no power to restrain the chicken, where was she willing to be convinced?
In this way, these disciples took care of the majesty of the teacher and the rules of the sect, and did not dare to find trouble with Fang Yongyan in person, and they did not laugh shamefully behind their backs, but it was a coincidence that these gossips were heard by the disciples of the Linyuan Sect who passed by, even if many of them did not look down on Yongyan in their hearts, they did not allow outsiders to talk about it, and they made trouble for a while.
This black thin boy with a flat shoulder is named Xu Xiaoshan, who has the best martial arts among his peers in the gang, and is also a thorn king who gives the martial artist a headache.
However, Xu Xiaoshan is thick-skinned, he hesitated for a moment before responding to the battle, making a ruthless move, and humiliating people if he won the battle.
The little boy's surname is Shi Mingyu, he was originally a person from Jiangcheng, five years ago a blizzard collapsed the house, and his family died in the snowdrift, only he sneaked out to dig ice and fish to escape, but the disaster was not a single line, he was caught by the people of the secret door to be a thief, he was stubborn and refused to do it, those people were going to cut off his hands and feet, and he was crippled to beg for food, fortunately, at that time, Fang Huaiyuan almost dug three feet into the ground in Jiangcheng in order to search for Fang Yongyan, and these places in Luzuo Secret Gate did not let go, which saved Shi Yu, and later Fang Yongyan saw that he was pitiful, simply left him by his side, the master and servant had a very deep relationship.
Because of this, the other disciples of Linyuan Sect had a lot of worries about the realm of the Haitian Gang, but Shi Yu didn't care about it, and when he heard Xu Xiaoshan scolding Fang Yongyan, he couldn't bear it, but unfortunately his skills were not as good as others.
At the moment, Xu Xiaoshan was already a little impatient, kicked him with his toes, and urged: "Hurry up, you either call Dad, or go and scold Fang Yongyan, don't drag on here, like a girl!" β
Shi Yu stiffened his neck and said, "The surname is Xu, I am your wild father!" β
Everyone laughed, Xu Xiaoshan was angry, his subordinates worked hard, and the flat burden fell on Shi Yu's back, pressing his life down, and said angrily: "You still dare to scold me!" Lao Tzu changed his mind, you knelt down to learn to crawl with a dog, circled around the osprey dock three times, and shouted that Fang Yongyan was a sick and tuberculosis ghost who had a mother and no mother, otherwise it would break your backbone! β
Hearing this, not only the faces of the disciples of Linyuanmen changed greatly, but the disciples of the Haitian Gang who had a hippie smile just now also felt that it was too much, and some people began to persuade peace, how could they have imagined that Xu Xiaoshan was arrogant, and now he started to have a temper, whoever stepped forward to pull him would have to eat an elbow, and the flat burden in his hand was pressed down hard, and the sound of overwhelmed bones could be faintly heard with good ear strength.
Shi Yu's face turned pale in pain, but he had a stubborn temper since he was a child, otherwise he would not have almost been cut off by someone from the secret door, and now not only did he not beg for mercy, but he also supported himself with both hands, and would rather break his bones than be soft on Xu Xiaoshan.
Seeing that the situation was not good, there were already a few timid people who ran back to call people, and the rest glanced at each other, and stepped forward to grab the flat shoulder, and tried to pull Xu Xiaoshan away, but they didn't think that Xu Xiaoshan would not be relentless, seeing that Shi Yu was about to get up, he actually kicked up the Emei thorn that fell to the ground, and stabbed straight at Shi Yu's face!
If he is stabbed this time, even if Shi Yu does not die, he will be blind and disfigured!
The shock was caught off guard, no one expected Xu Xiaoshan to make such a ruthless move, and it was too late to stop him when he came back to his senses, and the two female disciples had already exclaimed in surprise, closing their eyes and not being able to bear to look at it again.
The next moment, only to hear the sound of "duh", the Emei thorn rubbed Shi Yu's cheek and nailed it into the big tree behind him, and the remaining strength trembled, and he entered the tree for three points!
At the same time, a stone fell to the ground.
Everyone was startled, and they all looked in the direction where the stone was shooting, and then their expressions changed suddenly.
The place was dark and remote, and there was only one way to get in and out, and the few men who had just run away came back with a cower, and the four men who walked in front of them were two pairs of men and women, one older and one young, who had just arrived.
Five years have passed, Fang Yongyan's body has risen a lot, his body is still clear and thin, the weather is warm and cold, he is wearing a crane on his body, and his clothes are in the wind when he walks, which does not add a bit of momentum, but he is so thin that he can't even hold up a piece of clothing, he is probably in a hurry, a little sickly red appeared on his pale face, and he didn't speak before he got closer, so he covered his mouth and coughed a few times.
The person who shot the Emei stab just now was Liu Yishou, compared to Fang Yongyan, although he had a broken arm, he was not angry and arrogant, even if he was as arrogant as Xu Xiaoshan, he didn't dare to look at him, and his forehead was dripping with cold sweat.
Seeing them coming, the disciples of the Linyuan Sect breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly helped Shi Yu up, lowered his eyebrows and retreated to the side, and couldn't help but quietly look at the remaining two.
A beautiful jasper girl, a half-aged with a long face and cold eyes.
The girl is wearing a water green dress, full of black silk hanging hair, only decorated with a jade-colored silk flower and plain gauze belt, the waist is wide and thick, narrow and thin, slender and just right, bright eyes and bright teeth, pink peach cheeks, no need to linger, it is already a sinking fish and a goose.
She is the eldest lady of the Haitian Gang, Jiang Yanluo, the woman who follows her is called Qiu Niang, she is the former helmsman of the Haitian Gang, because she was killed by the enemy's husband and children, and she was poisoned and unable to speak, Jiang Tianyang couldn't bear to return to her hometown alone, and placed her next to Jiang Yanluo, and it has been ten years now.
Qiu Niang couldn't speak, but her eyes were extremely cold, and she only felt that her hairs stood on end, Xu Xiaoshanfu looked at her, and subconsciously wanted to retreat, but the soles of her feet seemed to have roots.
Jiang Yanluo opened her mouth and asked, "What are you doing here?" β
Her voice was light and pleasant, as if she had run out of water, and she usually said a word to Xu Xiaoshan that made him feel like a heavenly sound, but now he was full of panic, and he remembered what he had just done, and he didn't dare to look at Jiang Yanluo at all.
A disciple who was good friends with him on weekdays stubbornly said, "Hui, Hui, Miss, we are just ...... Kidding, yes, we're joking! β
"It turned out to be a joke...... Jiang Yanluo showed a clear expression when she heard this, and her tone was soft, just when Xu Xiaoshan and the others thought they had escaped, she suddenly raised her finger and pointed at the Emei thorn nailed to the trunk, and her expression was cold, "Take this thing to stab people's eyes, you tell me that it is a joke?" β
The Linyuan Sect disciple who was indignant just now suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and a female disciple stepped out of the crowd and told the whole story of this matter as it was, without adding oil and vinegar, and without concealing it at all.
After hearing this, Jiang Yanluo motioned for Xu Xiaoshan to come forward and asked, "Is this really the case?" β
ββ¦β¦ Be. β
When this word came out of his mouth, Xu Xiaoshan knew that he couldn't be good, so he simply raised his head and said bluntly: "Miss, I did the murder by force, and I said these words, but I don't think any of them are wrong!" β
Liu Yishou heard Xu Xiaoshan's unrepentant shout, his face became more and more cold, and he was trembling all over, but Fang Yongyan's face was as usual, as if the other party was not scolding him, it was really a first-class good temper, and in the eyes of the young disciples who were full of spirit, it became a first-class nest.
Seeing that he was silent, Xu Xiaoshan felt more and more justified, and turned his head to look at Jiang Yanluo, his eyes full of expectation.
Jiang Yanluo asked, "What do you think of my marriage with my cousin...... Not good? β
Xu Xiaoshan said loudly: "He is a sick man who is useless, maybe he will be a short-lived ghost one day, of course it's not good!" β
Jiang Yanluo's tone became more and more gentle: "So, you are doing all this for me?" β
When Xu Xiaoshan heard this, he felt that there was a soft flutter in his heart, and he was in high spirits for a while, and said without hesitation: "I am dedicated to the eldest lady!" β
The affection in the words was almost undisguised, and the others were in an uproar, Xu Xiaoshan turned a deaf ear, and looked at Jiang Yanluo directly, with only her flower-like smile in her eyes.
Jiang Yanluo smiled happily, how could there be a woman in the world who was not happy with such a sincere heart?
After she laughed, she said to Qiu Niang, "Aunt Qiu, take him to see Master Ah Qi." β
The smile on the corner of Xu Xiaoshan's mouth that had not yet been revealed froze, and the whispering disciples also quieted down.
Osprey Dock is the helmsman of the Haitian Gang, there is only one Master Ah Qi here, he is in charge of the martial arts hall, teaching the gang disciples to practice martial arts, and is also responsible for their rules, his rewards and punishments are clear and upright, if any disciple makes a mistake and falls into his hands, let alone be stripped of a layer of skin.
Xu Xiaoshan didn't expect his true feelings to come to such an end, he looked at Jiang Yanluo in disbelief: "Miss, I ......"
"You are devoted to me, I believe this sentence, but ......" Jiang Yanluo raised her eyes, "Why are you?" β
Xu Xiaoshan was stunned.
"The marriage event is the order of my parents and the words of the matchmaker, my father and brother have agreed to this matter, what qualifications do you have as an outsider to beak my fiancΓ©?"
Dropping these words, Jiang Yanluo no longer looked at him, her eyes swept to the remaining disciples of the Haitian Gang, and said, "You are worried about my life's affairs, I have good intentions, but I am not sensitive." You are the disciples of the Haitian Gang, it is your duty to practice martial arts diligently, as for the rest, it has nothing to do with it, the Haitian Gang is not a wild village with no rules, meritorious service should be rewarded, and mistakes will be punished. β
The eldest lady of the Haitian Gang has a gentle temperament and treats people kindly on weekdays, but it was the first time for these young disciples to see her angry, and they didn't dare to disobey at all, so they responded and bowed their heads to apologize to everyone in Linyuanmen, and then left dejectedly.
Xu Xiaoshan didn't leave, he stayed in place as if he had lost his soul, until he was dragged away by Qiu Niang's collar.
Fang Yongyan, who had never spoken, finally spoke and said, "Thank you, cousin." β
"Where did my cousin say, it was my Haitian Gang disciple who was wrong first, and I was just doing my duty, but I couldn't help you."
Jiang Yanluo smiled apologetically, looked at Shi Yu again, and asked with concern: "Are you okay, I asked someone to take you to see the doctor?" β
Shi Yu was originally in pain all over his body, but he was much more comfortable when she asked this sentence, shook his head desperately with a red face, and hid behind Fang Yongyan and didn't come out.
Jiang Yanluo chuckled, didn't tease him, and said, "Now that the matter is over, I'll go back first, does my cousin want to go with me?" β
"It's the first time I've come to Osprey Dock, so I'm just going to look around, cousin, let's get busy." Fang Yongyan shook her head with a smile, and looked at Liu Yishou again, "Please ask Uncle Liu to send my cousin back, and Xiaoyu will stay by my side." β
Liu Yishou nodded and walked behind Jiang Yanluo in silence.
It wasn't until the two of them walked away that Fang Yongyan turned to face Shi Yu and said lightly, "Why be impulsive?" β
Shi Yu said in a low voice: "Young master, I heard him scolding you behind his back......"
"There are a lot of people scolding me behind my back, can you still beat them one by one?"
Shi Yu choked for a while, he didn't cry when he almost broke his back just now, but now his eyes were red with grievance, and he still gritted his teeth and refused to admit his mistake.
Fang Yongyan looked at his stubborn expression, his eyes were in a trance for a moment, he closed his eyes, and said in a slow tone: "I know that you are loyal, but why don't you want to think about why others don't make a move?" β
Shi Yu was stunned and shook his head.
"If you can't figure it out, keep thinking until you understand, otherwise you'll have to suffer next time."
Fang Yongyan sighed, took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood on his face, and said, "Let's go back first." β
Shi Yu obediently followed behind him, walked for a while and couldn't help but say: "Young master, you have to be careful, I saw that Xu Xiaoshan looking at you just now...... After all, this is the territory of the Haitian Gang. β
"Don't worry, it's just a clown, with today's play, the Haitian Gang can't allow him to continue to be presumptuous."
Shi Yu nodded as if he didn't understand.
He was three steps behind, and he couldn't see Fang Yongyan's expression at the moment.
The shadows of the trees swayed, the eaves were dark, and half of the sick and handsome face was hidden, and the smile was as warm as jade, but it did not reach the bottom of the eyes.
