Chapter 138: Four Swords Gather
"Bang dang!"
The double blades that appeared out of thin air were blocked by Mu Yunxi's sword, and with a flash of sparks, they bounced back into the hands of the girl who suddenly appeared like a magnet.
Immediately after that, the girl swung her double blades at a fast speed to attack Mu Yunxi, her ball-like headdress and double ponytails fluttering in the wind, like a pair of rabbit ears.
Although the girl's momentum was strong, her moves were too monotonous, and Mu Yunxi didn't move her body much, so she easily blocked all the attacks.
Mu Yunxi's previous speculation was really good, this girl was the sword spell master who attacked the sentry, but he vaguely felt that the other party's moves were very familiar, and the two strange blades made him unable to remember where he had seen them for a while.
"Whoa!"
Another teenager came out of the grass and slashed at Mu Yunxi with a swing of his sword, this time Mu Yunxi, who had deserted in the battle, was unexpected, but fortunately, Liu Yuhan's Yingbi sword next to him took over this move with a horizontal wave.
Compared with the handsome appearance of the young man, his sword is more recognizable, this sword is a thousand-year-old cold iron made of Qingquan stone, and the Qinghong sword among the top ten famous swords in the world.
The moment the two swords collided, Liu Yuhan found that the sword-wielding young man was looking at Yingbi Sword without blinking, and he couldn't suppress the expression of extreme excitement on his face: "Yingbi Sword, which ranks fifth among the top ten famous swords in the world, Ben Shao has recently picked up shit luck, and he has been fortunate to fight with famous swords twice in a row." β
"Xiao Lingzi, what are you talking about? Yingbi Sword? Isn't that Sister Yuhan's portable sword? Could it be ......?"
"Xi'er, you've grown up!" As the girl spoke, Mu Yunxi immediately put away her sword and put it back into its sheath, and he recognized that this girl was Lin Yaoxi.
"Brother Yunxi, I really didn't expect it to be you. Lin Yaoxi had two more shallow dimples on her face, wiped her eyes, and ordered the young man, "Xiao Lingzi, don't fight, if you hurt Sister Yuhan, I will never spare you." β
The young man put away his sword, shrugged his shoulders with interest, and said to Liu Yuhan: "The girl has offended a lot, and she is in Xia Xue Shaoling." β
Lin Yaoxi recalled the past again, her father was killed by a traitor five years ago and died tragically. Mu Yunxi and Liu Yuhan did not hesitate to give up their studies and took her thousands of miles to Haojun City to find relatives, which moved her very much, but she has never been able to repay her.
Seeing that Lin Yaoxi was holding his hands tightly and hadn't come back to his senses for a long time, Mu Yunxi couldn't help coughing: "Xi'er, how are you doing lately?"
Lin Yaoxi let go of Mu Yunxi's hand, picked up the double blades on the ground, and tied them in the scabbard around his waist: "Thank you for your concern, now I live with my aunt and cousin in Haojun City, and when I can make money because of the entrusted tasks, I don't have to worry about food and clothing." β
Liu Yuhan put the sword back into its sheath and interrupted: "Your aunt won't stop your cousin from letting you join the Langtian Adventure Group, for a girl with a low cultivation, some tasks are too dangerous." β
"There's no way! Adventure travelers are our family's ancestral business, after my aunt retires, only my cousin and I can support this career, anyway, cultivation can be improved through cultivation. Lin Yaoxi pulled the corner of Xue Shaoling's clothes and pulled the other party to his side, "For example, my third senior brother, when he first entered the Langtian Adventure Group, he was not as skilled in using the Qinghong Sword as he is now, what did he do at that time, what was wrong, if he hadn't been recognized by his aunt through his own efforts, how could his aunt give him the ancestral world-famous sword-Qinghong Sword." β
Liu Yuhan was speechless when she said this, she hoped that her worries were superfluous, but there was another thing, she had hesitated for a long time before to tell Lin Yaoxi: "Over the years, have you ever had news of your mother?"
As soon as Liu Yuhan mentioned this, Lin Yaoxi's face instantly became gloomy: "I don't want to know who my mother is, after my father's death, my relatives have replaced her in my heart, so I have no reason to look for such an irresponsible mother at all." β
"Actually, your mother is ......"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Mu Yunxi hurriedly patted Liu Yuhan on the shoulder and interrupted her words: "When I have time, I will definitely go back to Haojun City to pay respects to Uncle Lin Yantian, I buried him with my own hands, so I hope you can go with me." β
Mu Yunxi's round eyes were obviously warning Liu Yuhan, but how could she be so easily frightened, and returned with a more awe-inspiring look. It's like saying that Lin Yaoxi will know this truth sooner or later.
"Toot toot!"
At this time, the signal of the mana walkie-talkie suddenly recovered, and Jiang Zhifei's rapid inquiry voice came from inside. Mu Yunxi reported that he was safe, briefly explained the situation here, and asked him to quickly send someone to occupy the first sentry.
After the intercom was finished, Jiang Jianfei hung up the mana walkie-talkie. Before the police team rushed here, Mu Yunxi thought it was necessary to understand the reason why the Langtian Adventure Group was here, so he repeated the reasoning he had made about the traces of the fight he saw in the sentry post to Lin Yaoxi and Xue Shaoling.
"There are four people in your Langtian Adventure Group, in addition to the two of you, there is also Lin Yaoxi's cousin, Song Zixi, the leader of the Langtian Adventure Group, and Shao Yan, the deputy head of the Langtian Adventure Group. Tell me where the other two have gone? Liu Yuhan and I are here to cooperate with the Heglila Police Station's operation to eliminate the bandits, and who are you instructed to do?"
"The senior brother and the second senior sister have already disguised themselves and blended into the cottage on Yan Dafeng, and they have ordered me and the junior sister to wait here so that we can deal with emergencies at any time. Xue Shaoling led everyone back to the sentry, turned his head and said, "No wonder the governor didn't tell you anything, after all, in this Chilu Autonomous Prefecture, conservatives and reformers are in flames. β
Under the questioning of Mu Yunxi and Liu Yuhan, Xue Shaoling told the truth in a slow voice.
It turned out that in addition to the post of governor in Chilu Autonomous Prefecture, there was also the post of Minister of War, which was personally appointed by the federal government to take on the role of Xian Mo'an, in order to balance Zhao Kai, the two were the leaders of the conservatives and reformers, and they were world friends, so whether the conservatives and reformers could get along in harmony was directly related to the jurisdiction of the federal government over the region.
Xian Mo'an, who was appointed to the federal government, was more committed to resolving the contradictions between the two factions in order to maintain local rule, and he first pleaded with Zhao Kai and his two families to marry: Zhao Kai's daughter would marry Xian Mo'an's son at a later date. The second is to let Zhao Kai hand over a private military factory to his own management.
Under the pressure of the federal government, Zhao Kai reluctantly agreed to Xian Mo'an's request, but when the two children were about to hold a big wedding, Zhao Kai unexpectedly learned that Xian Mo'an had an arms deal with the Blood Shadow Regiment in private. In a fit of rage, he said that he wanted to mobilize all the police forces of the Heglila Police Station to exterminate the bandits.
So in order to force Xian Mo'an to continue to cooperate with him, and at the same time make Zhao Kai throw a mouse, he tied Xian Mo'an's son to the cottage and used it as a bargaining chip.
On the other hand, the conservatives and reformers have already had a disagreement with this matter, and they have caused trouble by themselves, Xian Mo'an expected that Zhao Kai would definitely not help him rescue his son, so he invited the Langtian adventure group with a lot of money.
After listening to Xue Shaoling's narration, Liu Yuhan couldn't help but sneer: "You are willing to accept such a commission, in my opinion, the Minister of Military Affairs is just a commodity who has been with the bandits, but it is the governor who is really the one who eliminates harm for the people and benefits the people." β
"Political right and wrong, how can I tell it clearly in a few words, and in my opinion, Governor Zhao Kai is not much better. Xue Shaoling stretched out three fingers in his right hand," From your current anti-bandit operation, I can read at least three meanings of Zhao Kai: first, he doesn't care about the life or death of his future son-in-law, or this relationship binds him and makes him shackle when suppressing conservative forces; second, he wants to report this matter to the federal government and use this to ask for credit, which is intended to point out that Xian Mo'an is colluding with other forces and is not loyal to the federal government; third, for the sake of his own career and future, Xian Mo'an will definitely try his best to persuade Zhao Kai to help him hide this matter in the relationship between the two families, which is an excellent opportunity for him to win over Xian Mo'an to the reformist forcesγ β
After speaking, there was a burst of applause behind Xue Shaoling, and the people who applauded were Jiang Jianfei, who arrived at the first post according to the agreement, and the police team led by him, he took off his police hat, saluted Xue Shaoling and Lin Yaoxi, and then introduced himself, and said: "I have long heard of the name of the Langtian Adventure Group, and today I saw it really extraordinary, even an ordinary member of the group can be so insightful. β
Lin Yaoxi smiled vigorously and rubbed Xue Shaoling's cheeks: "Don't take his nonsense seriously, every time our adventure group wants to make a decision, we don't have to rely on my cousin, Xiao Lingzi is just a living sword idiot." β
"By the way, what are your plans next?" Mu Yunxi asked, taking advantage of Lin Yaoxi and Xue Shaoling to fight on the side.
Jiang Jianfei ordered his police officers to look around, he took out a map in his arms, unfolded it and put it in front of Mu Yunxi and Liu Yuhan: "There are still two sentry posts from the entrance of Yan Dafeng's cottage, since you have all disguised yourself as bandits, my plan is for you to sneak into the cottage first to rescue Xian Mo'an's son, and then we will launch a total of the cottage." β
The corners of Mu Yunxi's mouth turned up: "So, are you going to disobey Zhao Kai's order too?"
"After all, I am a search officer, and rescuing hostages must be a priority. Zhao Kai was tired of his son-in-law, but he was actually influenced by his precious daughter. β
"In other words, it is Miss Zhao Cuiying who really hopes that Xian Mo'an's son will die, how is this possible?" Mu Yunxi recalled the lonely expression on her face when she met Zhao Cuiying in the courtyard of the governor's mansion yesterday, and immediately said: "That's right, such a beautiful fairy in the world will never be able to accept this secular political marriage." β
Liu Yuhan cleared her throat, intending to accuse Mu Yunxi of describing it a little too much.
Xue Shaoling, who was finally getting rid of Lin Yao's entanglement on the side, leaned over to listen to what they were discussing out of curiosity, and when he saw the saber on Jiang Feifei's waist, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but be happy: "Oh my God!
"What are you doing?" Jiang Jian Fei saw Xue Shaoling stretch out his hand and hurriedly flashed to the side.
"Officer Jiang, can you borrow your sword and take a look with me. Xue Shaoling first pulled out his Qinghong sword and stood on his chest, and then under his repeated requests, Mu Yunxi and Lin Yaoxi pulled out the Yanhe Sword and Yingbi Sword one after another.
"The sword idiot has had another seizure, and you are cooperating with him. Lin Yaoxi ran to the side like a plague.
Xue Shaoling compared the tip of the Qinghong Sword to the other three swords: "The second-ranked Thousand Feather Sword, the third-ranked Qinghong Sword, the fourth-ranked Yanhe Sword, and the fifth-ranked Yingbi Sword, four of the top ten famous swords are gathered, which is a good sign." β
"Oh, what does Brother Xue mean by the auspicious omen?" Jiang Zhifei disapplievingly retracted his sword and sheathed it.
"Do you know that the head of the world's famous swords is the fearless sword of the world, and four of the top ten famous swords have been produced, which means that the head of the sword has also appeared, and the auspicious omen means that it has been found by people who are destined to ......"
"Don't listen to his nonsense, there is nothing at all. Before Xue Shaoling's words fell, he was pulled aside by Lin Yaoxi's ears, and then the two quarreled again.
And Xue Shaoling's words caused the people present to ponder, especially Mu Yunxi, who couldn't help but frown when he connected his previous experience with it.
What if everything he says is true?
