Chapter 5: The Assassination
Songshan Pass, the gate of a towering city wall.
At this time......
Beside the wide but lonely ancient road, a carriage suddenly drove by, and there were four horses pulling the cart, handsome and strong, and the hooves of the horses clattered against the ground, splashing with gusts of sand mist......
The horse's hooves strode sharply, and a loud cry broke out from its nose, and it let out a white breath and a long neigh.
The carriage was extravagant, and the sound of the wheeling carriage slid like rain across the wide official road, reflecting the scorching sun and ticking wheels.
On all sides, it was wrapped in silk, and the gold-inlaid windows were obscured by a curtain of pale blue crepe, making it impossible to perceive the magnificence and the owner of the speeding car.
The cart was pulled by four tall horses, tightly wrapped in a layer of metal armor, revealing only two horse's eyes the size of bells!
With the dazzling sunlight, the four tall horses exuded a dazzling brassy color......
The limbs are strong and explosive!
In the carriage, a teenager was sitting at the end at this time.
The young man was dressed in a black robe, about ten years old, with black and vertical hair spreading along his shoulders, sword eyebrows, slender black eyes, slightly pursed lips, angular outline, slender and tall but not rugged figure, like an eagle in the night, cold and arrogant but full of grandeur.
At this time, the young man's eyes were slightly closed, and his breathing was even. In front of the young man was an incense burner that was not big or small, and there was little smoke on the incense burner, exuding a faint smell of extremely fragrant incense......
Next to the incense burner is a small and delicate nanmu table, on which is placed a pot of tea and a few plates of fruit.
And in the arms of the young man, there is a girl who is like a city and a country!
The girl's cheeks are slightly red, her eyes are closed, and there is something indescribably cute!
The boy is none other than Ye Qiong, and the girl is naturally Ke'er!
"Little prince, in about half a day, you will be able to go to Shaolin Temple!"
At this time, an incomparably thick voice suddenly came out of the carriage!
"Well...... Now everyone has a half-hour rest for the time being, after running for so long, everyone should be a little tired! ”
After a while, Ye Qiong's voice came out slowly!
"Subordinates, pass it on!"
The big man outside the carriage immediately replied.
"Little prince, Ke'er is not heavy, if it is heavy, Ke'er can sit up by herself!"
in the carriage.
The girl in Ye Qiong's arms suddenly opened her eyes that were as bright as stars and asked softly.
"How can Ke'er be heavy!"
Ye Qiong scratched the girl's nose and said with a smile.
"It's better to be a little prince!"
The girl couldn't help but smile after hearing this, and then drilled into Ye Qiong's arms!
Half an hour flickered by, and a moment later, the rumbling cavalry marched again.
"Dada......"
"Hoof Hoof Hoof ......"
Fiery red horses galloped along the endless dirt road, their hooves churning and their long manes flying, and their long manes and tails fluttered under the buoyancy of the current, one after the other, one overlapping the other, condensing into a whole, and moving forward quickly......
"Shaolin, Shaolin!"
Ye Qiong kept muttering these words in her heart.
In fact, if you read the original work, you will find that in the period of Condor Shooting and Condor, there has never been a monk of Shaolin Temple in the rivers and lakes. Originally, Ye Qiong also thought that in the world of double carvings, there was no Shaolin Temple!
However, now that it looks like the Shaolin Temple still exists, it's just that Mr. Jin Yong didn't want to highlight the Shaolin Temple when he wrote about the Condor and the Condor! In addition, at that time, the war in the north was occupied by foreign races, and the Jin and Mongols were more inclined to Taoism, and Genghis Khan even received the canonization of Qiu, so the monks of Shaolin Temple must have many obstacles to travel; Secondly, it may also be because before the Yitian period, that is, in the decades of shooting the Condor and the Condor, there was a major fusion in the Shaolin Temple, a little person who burned the fire stole and ran away, made trouble in the Shaolin Temple, killed the abbot of the Shaolin Temple at that time, and then fled to the Western Regions to establish the King Kong Gate, this person is the fire foreman Tuo, at this time, the Shaolin Temple was greatly injured in the next few decades, and it collapsed, which should also be one of the important reasons why the monks of the Shaolin Temple did not walk on the rivers and lakes during this period!
Of course, Huotoutuo only discovered the mastery of Jiuyang Divine Skill in the early stage of the Condor, and if Ye Qiong didn't guess wrong, the other party should still be just a child now!
"I hope that the Jiuyang Divine Skill has not been discovered yet!"
The closer she got to Shaolin Temple, the more nervous Ye Qiong's heart became!
Jiuyang Divine Skill is an important support for him to become a first-class master in the rivers and lakes within five years, and it is also the easiest martial arts secret that Ye Qiong has ever known!
And like the Nine Yin True Scripture or something, even if Ye Qiong gets it, he won't be able to learn it at all, who makes it too well-known, even King Kang's Mansion may not be able to protect him!
Although, for those first-class masters on the rivers and lakes, it is not necessarily possible to compete with thousands of troops, but it is undoubtedly easy to take the head of the general among the tens of millions of troops!
"Harnessing ......"
Just when Ye Qiong was thinking wildly, the driver suddenly stopped the carriage suddenly!
Immediately afterwards, he went to the side of the curtain and said, "Little prince, it's time to Shaolin Temple!" ”
"So fast?"
Ye Qiong was a little puzzled, didn't she just say that she still had half a day's work?
"Little prince, Shaolin Temple has arrived!"
The coachman outside shouted again.
"That's not right!"
Ye Qiong frowned tightly, the coachman's voice didn't sound right!
Although it is very stable, if you listen carefully, it is not difficult to find that the other party's voice is very anxious!
It's like urging Ye Qiong to come down quickly!
"Little Prince......"
Ke'er on the side opened her mouth.
"Shh......h
Ye Qiong hurriedly stopped the girl.
The girl's eyes kept blinking, obviously puzzled.
"Ke'er, there's a dark pavilion under the carriage, you go and hide first!"
"Ah, why ......"
The girl's eyes widened.
"Obedient!"
Ye Qiong smiled softly, and then directly opened the dark pavilion under the carriage, and was caught off guard, and the girl fell down directly.
"Little prince, did you hear the minion speak?"
At this moment, the coachman's voice came in again.
Listening to the voice, you can vaguely hear that the other party has some impatience!
"I heard you!"
After checking the carriage again, Ye Qiong pushed open the curtain and walked out slowly!
"Hahaha, my little prince, you finally came out!"
Just when Ye Qiong just walked out, the coachman suddenly laughed out loud, with a gloomy face.
And in his hand, he actually held an extremely sharp dagger!
"What are you doing here?"
Ye Qiong pretended to be very scared and hurriedly asked.
"What are you doing, of course I want to kill you, you Dajin people deserve to die, especially the future successor of Dajin like you!"
The coachman's face was full of hideousness, and he shouted violently, and then stabbed Ye Qiong fiercely......
