150 roadside encounters
It was July, and the sun was scorching.
The blazing sun hung high in the sky, baking the earth, and the ground on the official road was dried and cracked.
Jiang Yi carried a package on his back and walked alone on the secluded road, and with every step, his figure flashed over a distance of more than ten meters.
Fortunately, he now has deep internal strength, and he has reached the realm of not being afraid of cold and heat, even if he hurried under the scorching sun, he did not sweat much.
It's just that I'm still a little puzzled in my heart.,The previous few crossings were directly at the beginning of the plot.,Near the location of the protagonist.。
But this time it seems to be different, and I don't know where I have traveled to.
On his left and right sides are all reckless mountains and forests, and in front and behind are endless official roads, and there are no people in sight.
The woods on both sides of the road were noisy with sounds and insects.
After walking like this for a quarter of an hour, Jiang Yi saw a tea shed on the side of the road.
In the tea shed, there are several guests who are enjoying the shade and drinking tea.
The shopkeeper was a man in his thirties, and when he saw Jiang Yi, he hurriedly greeted:
"Guest officer, the heat is unbearable, let's come in and sit down and have a cup of tea."
Jiang Yi nodded, walked into the tea shed, took out a small piece of broken silver and handed it to the shopkeeper: "Bring me a bowl of tea." ”
"Good Ratcha."
The shopkeeper hurriedly looked for money, and then served Jiang Yi a big bowl of tea.
After Jiang Yi sat down, he asked, "I want to ask, how far is the nearest town from here?" ”
The shopkeeper pointed forward along the official road and said, "Follow this road, go about ten miles ahead to reach Black Wind Town." ”
"Thank you."
Jiang Yi nodded in thanks, and while drinking tea, he thought: This Black Wind Town should be the place where Yi Jifeng held the martial arts conference at the beginning of the plot.
At the table next to Jiang Yi, there was a young girl and an old man.
The old man Lin Zhengfeng is the head of a small sect, the Qingfeng Sword Sect, and the girl is his female disciple Xiaoyuan.
At this moment, Xiao Yuan's face was so hot that her little face was red, her forehead was full of beads of sweat, and she kept wiping her sweat with a handkerchief, complaining: "Master, how long will it take to get to that Black Wind Town?" ”
"Didn't you listen to what the shopkeeper just said, it's still ten miles away."
Lin Zhengfeng sat calmly and drank tea, in stark contrast to the impetuousness of the female disciple. He glanced at his female apprentice and said leisurely:
"You now know how difficult it is to walk the rivers and lakes."
He didn't want to take this female apprentice to participate in the martial arts conference, but he was entangled and had no choice but to agree, and took her to see the excitement.
Xiao Yuan put away the bitterness on her face when she heard this, and said stubbornly: "This difficulty can't defeat me." I must participate in the martial arts conference to save General Yue. ”
Jiang Yi listened to the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but say, "Are the two of you going to Black Wind Town to participate in the martial arts conference?" ”
Xiao Yuan turned her head to look at Jiang Yi who was speaking, and saw that he had a handsome face, a friendly smile on the corner of his mouth, a free and easy posture, a long knife at his waist, and a swordsman dressed as a swordsman.
She nodded her head and said, "yes, yes, are you also going to Blackwind Town?" ”
"That's right, I heard that a martial arts conference is about to be held there, so I naturally can't miss this kind of event." Jiang Yi said with a smile.
Lin Zhengfeng has actually been secretly observing Jiang Yi: when Jiang Yi walked into the tea shed just now, he noticed that this young man was extraordinary, his steps were silent between walks, his posture was light like a cloud of smoke, and he was obviously very light power.
Seeing Jiang Yi open his mouth at this time, he didn't dare to slack off, and asked with his fists clenched: "The old man is Lin Zhengfeng of the Qingfeng Sword Sect, and this is the old decay disciple Xiaoyuan." Dare to ask what kind of sect Childe is? ”
"In Xia Jiang Yi, I have been practicing with my master in the mountains before, and I have just finished learning to go down the mountain. As for the name of the master, I really can't tell you. ”
Jiang Yi replied politely, casually making up a history.
I heard that Jiang Yi is also a newcomer, and like herself, Xiaoyuan is a little close, and said with a grin:
"Why don't you come with us. As the so-called rivers and lakes are sinister, you are a fledgling and inexperienced, and it is easy to suffer if you don't know how to take precautions. ”
Jiang Yi looked at this warm-hearted girl and smiled slightly: "It's so good." ”
Lin Zhengfeng thought about it and didn't refuse.
Seeing that Jiang Yi had just asked the shopkeeper, he didn't even know the nearby towns, obviously he was lost, but he was in line with the image of a hairy boy who had just entered the rivers and lakes.
So he wasn't overly vigilant either.
After drinking tea and resting for a while, Lin Zhengfeng took Jiang Yi and Xiaoyuan to a carriage on the side of the road.
After Lin Zhengfeng and Xiao Yuan got into the car, Xiao Yuan lifted the curtain of the carriage and beckoned: "Brother Jiang, you can come up too." ”
"Okay."
Jiang Yi entered the carriage as he said.
The coachman flicked his whip and shouted: "Drive! ”
The carriage slowly moved along the official road.
In the carriage, Xiao Yuan kept fanning with a fan, and the breeze picked up a few strands of her hair, flying in the air.
She looked at Jiang Yi and asked, "Brother Jiang, you have just finished studying and went down the mountain, how much do you know about the situation in the rivers and lakes?" ”
Jiang Yi was ashamed and said:
"I only know that Shaolin Temple and Mingjian Villa are the Taishan Beidou of martial arts, and I don't know much about the rest."
Xiao Yuan rarely met a person who had no experience in the rivers and lakes than herself, so she couldn't help but be interested, and said with a bit of pointing:
"You're right, today's martial arts are indeed respected by Shaolin and the Famous Sword Villa.
There are many secrets of martial arts in Shaolin Temple, and the cultivation of the three monks is unfathomable, and no one can underestimate it; The old owner of Mingjian Villa and the young owner of the martial arts alliance of two generations, the status in the rivers and lakes is like the sky. It's a pity that the old farmer was unable to move after being injured in the leg, and the momentum of the famous sword villa declined a little. ”
"Fortunately, Yi Daxia took on the heavy responsibility of the Famous Sword Villa, and became the leader of the martial arts alliance at a young age."
Speaking of Yi Jifeng, Xiaoyuan's face was full of admiration and admiration.
Looking at her picture of a young girl with a spring, Jiang Yi asked a little funny: "Do you admire that Yi Jifeng very much?" ”
Although Xiao Yuan's pretty face was slightly red, she still nodded boldly: "Of course, I heard that he is only in his twenties, and his martial arts are already stronger than the heads of all factions, and he is very handsome and chivalrous, and I don't know how many girls in the rivers and lakes dream of marrying her." ”
"So, you have a lot of competitors?" Jiang Yi said teasingly.
Xiao Yuan shook her head when she heard this: "Although I admire him, I never thought of marrying him." ”
Without continuing on this topic, Xiao Yuan turned to say:
"Don't talk about that, I'll teach you some more common sense. In addition to the Famous Sword Villa and the Shaolin Temple, the largest forces in the rivers and lakes are the three gangs and five factions......
In addition to these gangs, there are also the Zhang brothers who should not be underestimated, both of whom are famous masters in the rivers and lakes. Especially Zhang Tao, with a domineering lion roar stunt, he is powerful in martial arts, and has few opponents. ”
Jiang Yi bowed slightly, indicating that he was taught.
He naturally knew that this Zhang Tao was the father of the protagonist Zhang Junbao, but Zhang Junbao didn't seem to have learned the lion's roar skill, but only learned some fist and foot kung fu of the Zhang family.
Because Zhang Tao is superstitious about numerology and feng shui, he thinks that he and Zhang Junbao are incompatible, so he sent Zhang Junbao to the Taoist temple on the mountain since he was a child.
This time, at the martial arts conference in Black Wind Town, Zhang Junbao will also follow his master, the Dustless Daoist, to participate.
Jiang Yi thought about the plot in his mind.
The coachman's voice came from outside the curtain: "Three, after this forest, you can reach Black Wind Town." ”
Xiao Yuan was overjoyed when she heard this: "Great, it's finally here." ”
As he was speaking, Jiang Yi's ears moved slightly, and then his expression changed, and he slapped his palm suddenly, and the palm force broke through the air, knocking the coachman outside the curtain away.
Then he held Xiao Yuan with his left hand, and reached out with his right hand to grab the placket of Lin Zheng's windbreaker, which closed his eyes and recuperated, and his body jumped up like an arrow, smashed through the roof of the carriage, and flew out of the carriage.
The next moment, there was a loud bang, and the carriage on the ground was suddenly overturned to the ground.
Then, the carriage was pulled away by a huge force, and the carriage ploughed a mark on the ground and disappeared from the eyes of several people.
In the distance, the mournful cry of the yellow horse could be heard in the woods.
