Chapter 60: Mountain Bandits

When Xiao Ruyu and his newly released father-in-law rushed to the capital together, Han Yixuan took the people of Feitian Pavilion to Yunzhen.

News came from his subordinates that they had found traces of Master in Cloud Town. Running all the way, when Han Yixuan arrived in Yunzhen, he saw a miserable appearance after the gunpowder explosion.

Broken walls everywhere, full of messes. Those who survived the explosion had long since fled, leaving many mutilated bodies lying there helplessly. He trembled and searched among the broken corpses, afraid of finding the master's body.

Fortunately, after looking for a long time and not finding it, he slowly calmed down, thinking that with his master's style of acting, he would definitely leave a way for himself to protect himself. His great revenge is not finished, and he will definitely not die so easily. So they sent more men to inquire about the news in various places.

According to the situation at the scene, it can be seen that many sects were attacked by gunpowder here, and it can be said that they bloomed everywhere and suffered heavy casualties. This time, no one in the rivers and lakes could have imagined that Yan Feiyu would disappear for more than ten years, and that he would be able to use gunpowder on such a large scale again, which cannot but make people worry. No one knows how much of this gunpowder he has in his hands, and when he will be upset, and throw some more, they will not be able to get by. According to the analysis of the Jianghu people, Yan Feiyu must have gone to an overseas island to study gunpowder during the years of his disappearance.

Han Yixuan was very worried about Master, although the destructive power of these gunpowders was great, they were also very dangerous. According to the current control and use of gunpowder by the Great Qin Dynasty, it is far from reaching the level of retreating after hurting people. Master is now using gunpowder on a large scale, and I don't know if he has been injured.

In order to take revenge, Master really exhausted all means. Even something as out of the ordinary as gunpowder came out, which shows the firmness of his intention to take revenge. But thinking about it, it is understandable, he feels that he has lost Ruyu and feels that he has cut out his heart and lungs, and the master has lost so many relatives at once, it is definitely better to live than to die. In recent years, revenge has been his biggest support.

His mother is gone, Ruyu is no longer there, he only has the master, and he must not let the master have anything to do.

"Young master, there's news." Xiao Chong walked over quickly, and Han Yixuan was standing in the mess of the cyclamen at this time, anxiously waiting for news from his subordinates.

"Listening to the surviving martial arts people, the old master's martial arts are very good, and his skills are overwhelming. It's a pity that Lin Lengyue, the lord of the Cold Moon Pavilion, appeared, you know, he is good at using poison, it is said that he used a poison weapon that can be attacked by a group called the rain of flowers, and the old master couldn't avoid it before he took a dart, and finally reluctantly used gunpowder. Many of those sects that were once related to the old master's destruction were killed, and other sects also suffered heavy losses. ”

"It's Leng Yue Pavilion again, send someone to check this Lin Lengyue, I want to know all the news about him from his debut to now. If it was really him who harmed the master, I would definitely let the Cold Moon Pavilion cease to exist. Han Yixuan said ruthlessly. He had never hated a person so much, even if his eldest brother robbed his cousin, he didn't hate him so much, but this Lin Lengyue didn't know why, he hated it when he heard his name.

"Any other news?" Han Yixuan asked. When he heard the news, he was even more worried about Master.

"The old master let people escape with his men after letting out the gunpowder, and I can't find out where I went now." Xiao Chong was a little embarrassed, the information he got was really limited, and they were also very worried about the old master. I hope the old master is safe and sound.

"If you can't find out, continue to investigate." With Master's ability, if someone had easily found out, he would have died many times. He instructed, "Continue to send people to inquire in the vicinity, and look for the surrounding towns, Master is injured and can't go too far." ”

"Yes. Now I just hope that there is no poison on that dart, otherwise..."Xiao Chong saw that the young master's face was even more ugly, and quickly shut up.

Han Yixuan was also afraid of this result, he walked out a few steps and turned back, "Hurry up and order the pavilion to send more people over, focus on checking at various intersections and pharmacies, and come and tell me as soon as there is news." ”

When Han Yixuan was looking for his master everywhere like crazy, Xiao Ruyu and her stepfather encountered another wave of assassinations.

This is a must-go mountain road to the capital. The mountain road is winding and steep, and the carriage is very narrow and dangerous to walk on the mountain road. Xiao Ruyu and Cai Wei no longer sat in a car but rode horses, both of them were not good at riding, and everyone slowed down in order to take care of them.

"Girl, thinking about my father, when we enter Beijing, the emperor will definitely give the general's mansion, and my father wants you to be the master and get more maids and grandmothers to serve, what do you think?" Xiao Zhongjing tightened the reins with a smile and waited for Xiao Ruyu behind.

"Father-in-law, I don't need so many people to serve, I just have Cai Wei." Xiao Ruyu replied with a grin. She doesn't ride well and walks very carefully. Seeing the chic appearance of his father-in-law galloping on a horse, he was very envious.

"You are the eldest lady of the General's Mansion, wouldn't it be a joke to have only one maid ring." Xiao Zhongjing shook his head and waved his hand, "This is the mastery of the father, once the general's mansion gives it, you will go and buy someone, just eight maid rings and six grandmothers." I don't know if this pomp is right, so let's do this for the time being, if it's not enough, let's make up for it. ”

"Oh, father, spare me. With so many people in front of my eyes, I was dizzy. Forget it. ”

"Miss, look down, you still have to buy Mama and Yahuan. You think, in the future, the general and you will be stationed in the capital, we don't understand many rules in the capital, and a few old women who are proficient in this way are particularly important. Mingchun interjected. At this time, he admired Xiao Ruyu very much and respected her very much.

"Yes, Ruyu, my father doesn't understand this, and my father doesn't want you to be wronged because of this." Xiao Zhongjing thought that Ruyu was just an ordinary village girl, and she definitely didn't understand the way everyone in the capital was beautiful, and he didn't want her to look different in the capital. He also wants to find a good son-in-law for his baby daughter, this style of conduct, rules of entry and exit, and pomp and circumstance in and out must be the best so as not to embarrass her.

"Got it." Xiao Ruyu shrugged indifferently. She understood what her stepfather and Mingchun meant, but she didn't care, but in order not to look too different, she better listen to them. At most, reduce the number of people, and pick a few that are pleasing to the eye. She didn't want to get a few nurturing grandmothers to babble in her ears all day long as if she was chanting scriptures, and she was annoyed to death.

"Phew." Suddenly, Ding Fang, who was running ahead, grabbed the horse and turned around and waved them to stop.

As soon as everyone stopped, a large number of rocks and earthworks rolled down from the cliff in front of them, and before everyone could shake their senses, a team rushed to the front from the mountain. As soon as the team reached the face, it automatically divided into two groups, one left and one right, and expanded on its own, surrounding several of them in a carriage.

These people are holding weapons such as knives, guns, swords, halberds, etc., and they are fierce and unkind.

"You are surrounded, acquaintances, hurry up and hand over the wealth and silk woman, this king is in a good mood, let you go." A strong, sturdy-looking, fierce-looking man carried a knife and urged his horse to come to him.

"When did there be bandits on this road? Boy, get out of here, don't kill yourself. Ding Fang sneered, what is so good about a broken bandit, he has been on the battlefield for more than ten years, he has never seen any formation, and he is afraid of them.

"Yo, that's a big breath." The man snapped and spat out a mouthful of phlegm, and pointed at the knife, "This king should look at it, who is so powerful that he doesn't even look at this king in his eyes." ”

"King, kill chickens with a knife, leave it to me." A thin, lean young man in gray called out to the king, urging the horse to come up. The king looked at him, his eyelids twitched, and he nodded knowingly.

"Master, my subordinates come down to practice their hands." Xiao Zhong nodded, Ding Fang's legs strained, and he got off the horse and walked forward, coming to the other party.

"Yo, hey, there are really people who are not afraid of death, boy, take the move." The man's eyes widened, and he raised his knife and slashed. Ding Fang waved his sword to block, and the two fought in one place.

In fact, the Ding side suffered a loss in this battle. The opponent's knife is immediately used, can cut, stab, split, and can be reached a little farther away, but Ding Fang's sword is a portable sword, and there is no problem with hand-to-hand combat, but there are many drawbacks to fighting immediately, if the opponent is a little farther away, the sword cannot cause damage to the other party.

At the beginning, Ding Fang did suffer, but Xiao Zhongjing was not in a hurry at all. Ding Fang is the best martial artist among his guards, and his martial arts are good immediately, if he can't even deal with an ordinary bandit, then it's really time to retire.

Xiao Ruyu watched quietly from the side, Xiao Zhongjing was afraid that she would be scared and hurt her, so he asked his subordinates to protect her and Cai Wei in the middle, and turned back to comfort her from time to time.

Cai Wei lowered her head and snickered, the master was treated as a little sheep by the general, but in fact, she was a big tiger. If the general sees the master's ability to launch a ruthless killing, his eyes will probably pop out.

Cai Wei believes in the master very much, she peeks at the master's face from time to time, as long as the master is calm and unfazed, she has no need to worry. If the master's face changed, it would be useless for her to worry.

"Father-in-law, let Ding Fang not be careless, this person's martial arts are not low, and he is not an ordinary bandit." Xiao Ruyu carefully observed the group of people in front of him, and saw that although some of them were casual and swearing. But some people are above the top, and there is a special arrogance in their actions, not like a group of robbers should have. Looking at the person who fought with Ding Fang, his martial arts are indeed good. The moves are sharp, the shots are agile, the eyes, hands, and horses are particularly tacit, and it is definitely not as simple as being a bandit. She couldn't help but go to Xiao Zhongjing's side and remind.

Xiao Zhongjing also saw that something was wrong, he frowned, thought of a possibility, raised his head and shouted, "Ding Fang, fight quickly." ”

Ding Fang immediately changed his tactics and accelerated the attack, his swords attacked frequently, and the other party slowly dealt with it with some difficulty, he took the time to shout: "Brothers, hurry up, there are many of us, hurry up and go back to drink and hug the girl." ”

At this shout, everyone hula came around. Xiao Zhongjing instructed a few of his subordinates, "Be sure to protect Miss." As he spoke, he drew his sword to ward off the enemy.

This is the first time Xiao Ruyu has seen his father-in-law's swordsmanship. His swordsmanship is not fancy at all, just fast and accurate, the sword is in his hand, as if he has eyes, whether it is stabbing, picking, or chopping, it has a sharp momentum and rapid reaction. Often without waiting for the other party to get close, he has already been stabbed under the horse, which is simply a humanoid killing weapon.

"The father-in-law is mighty." Xiao Ruyu cheered on the side. It's simply amazing, worthy of the general of Zhenbei who terrified the enemy.

Listening to the praise of his baby daughter, seeing that she was not a little afraid, Xiao Zhongjing was extremely satisfied and proud. He raised his eyebrows triumphantly, and the sword under his hand danced faster and faster.

"Catch the two women." The people who were fighting with Ding Fang saw that their people couldn't take advantage of them, and they died a lot, and they were panting for breath. He took a moment to look at the other party and saw that the other party was tightly guarding the two women in the middle. Knowing that these two are important to them, just catch them.

"The king himself will go." That king is a womanizer, and when he saw Xiao Ruyu just now, his eyes widened, and his eyes were obscene and disgusting. Now, when he heard that he was going to arrest the woman, he took the brunt of it and rushed over on horseback.

This king's martial arts are not very high, but his body is strong and he has a lot of strength. He also held a big knife in his hand, rushed to the front, and in two or three strokes, he pulled the guard who was guarding Xiao Ruyu aside, handed the knife to his left hand, and stretched out his right hand at Xiao Ruyu with a smile to grab it.

"Bastard, Miss Protection." Xiao Zhongjing has been paying attention to this side, there are many people on the other side, and he has consciously separated him from each other, he can't solve the fire from the distance, and he hurriedly shouted at his subordinates.

Xiao Ruyu smiled and looked at the other party's outstretched hand, and shouted to her father-in-law: "Father-in-law, it's okay, don't worry about me." As she spoke, her eyes narrowed, and she dodged his hand behind her. By the way, he took out a dagger from his bosom. This dagger was what she asked for Ming Chun, it was better than her original one, and it turned out that she gave it to Cai Wei.

The man didn't expect to catch the air, he was slightly stunned, then turned around on his horse, and grabbed Xiao Ruyu again. Xiao Ruyu sneered, it seems that she looks particularly easy to bully, since this is the case, let him taste it.

Seeing that person getting closer and closer, Cai Wei's heart hung in the air, she was fighting the enemy with Mingchun at the moment, and she couldn't take care of the master here. Although she knew that her master was powerful, she still couldn't help but worry. In order to help her master as soon as possible, she swung her dagger and slashed the enemy in front of her.

"Let's go down." The man approached Xiao Ruyu, looking at Xiao Ruyu's eyes more and more obscenely, and there was saliva left on the corner of his mouth, as if Xiao Ruyu was his meal. Xiao Ruyu didn't dodge, but rode close to him, leaning slightly towards him, seeing that she was about to be caught, she turned sideways to avoid his arm and waved her hand forward, and the dagger was firmly inserted into the man's chest.

The man only felt a pain in his chest, he subconsciously looked over, and a knife was inserted straight into his chest, and the handle of the knife was grasped in the hand of the smiling woman in front of him. He didn't believe that he would be killed by such a thin woman, his eyes widened, and he stretched out his hand to point at him, wanting to say something, but he couldn't say anything, and stared to death.

Xiao Ruyu calmly pulled out the dagger, kicked his corpse off the horse, and continued to search for the target. Just now, everyone only saw that the man was about to catch Xiao Ruyu, and they were all worried to death, and in the blink of an eye, the person who grabbed him actually fell off the horse and died. What the hell is going on? Could it be that they were mistaken just now?
