Chapter 128 [Broad Daylight]
As soon as he entered Wu'an Ling, He Ping felt a completely different atmosphere from Qingyang Ling, although there was still a lot of distance from Wu'an City, he was only in a small town near the border of Wu'an Ling at this time, and this town was actually not far from Qingyang Ling, but he had fully experienced the different folk customs of the two places, in Qingyang Ling, simplicity is of course one of the characteristics, but more is tough.
The ancestor of the Zhao family is a general, Qingyang has such a long border, since the beginning of the war has been the front line, most of the young and strong young men have gone to join the army, even if they have not joined the army, the old and weak women and children, they are also not easy to mess with, and they also have a good martial arts, so the residents there are also contaminated with a lot of military spirit.
But Wu Anling's side is completely different, people walk slowly and leisurely, speak softly, even the street vendors and farmers who rush to the market, they all speak with a literary atmosphere, acquaintances on the street meet first to greet each other, and then to keep a certain distance to talk, two sentences in three sentences are polite, not at all like Qingyang Ling, the two of them patted their shoulders and beat their chests when they met, and then they had to hook their shoulders and backs, and their voices were smaller, and they would be despised if they didn't have a little dirty words.
The scene here made He Ping a little speechless, in such a place, can it really be sold weapons and equipment? Not to mention the combat effectiveness of the Wu'an Collar troops, people's enthusiasm for battle is obviously insufficient, it is certainly not a simple matter to recruit soldiers in such a place, and it is even more difficult to train these crepe people into warriors who can go to the battlefield, I really don't know how Wu Anling has held on without losing territory after so many years of war.
He Ping came here to find out the news, originally his best method was to tell all the bad guys around him to come stupidly and quickly, and attract these guys to target him, and these guys will generally be the most well-informed group in the local area, and the most convenient point is that you don't have to pay attention to any legal issues, if you want to know something, just let go and torture, as long as you don't kill people, there will be no problems.
At this point, though, he found that it didn't seem necessary, because ......
There was a sudden jump of chickens and dogs on the corner of the street, and the surrounding vendors and passers-by hurriedly got out of the way, although everyone was watching curiously, but no one dared to approach the past, for fear of being caught in some trouble, the huge street became empty in an instant, and the crowd that was originally quite bustling either hid in the surrounding shops or got into the nearby alleys, and even those shops closed one after another, and in the blink of an eye, only He Ping, who had not yet figured out what was going on, stood in the middle of the street on horseback.
Immediately afterwards, a young man in a white robe, who looked like he was seventeen or eighteen years old, turned out from the corner of the street, looked panicked, and looked back from time to time, and soon behind him appeared more than a dozen people in black suits, these dozen people were holding knives in their hands, all of them looked fierce and vicious, and their target was obviously the white-robed young man in front, although the white-robed young man had a long sword hanging from his waist, but perhaps the number of the other party was too large, he didn't seem to have any intention of resisting, just ran forward.
What kind of play is this? He Ping really didn't react for a while, in broad daylight, this kind of blatant pursuit happened, is the security of Wu Anling so poor? And looking at the reactions of other people around him, this kind of thing should not be the first time, everyone has already trained a super reflex nerve, otherwise, how could it be that there was just a little movement over there, and there was no one on this side.
This town is not big, even if this street is the main road of the town, the length is not much, the white-robed young man was panicked just now, did not see the situation in front clearly, at this time he ran a few steps forward, looked up, and saw He Ping on a horse, the moment he saw He Ping, the moment he saw He Ping, the white-robed young man's face was even more panicked, and his footsteps also stopped, obviously taking He Ping as an accomplice of the gang of black-clothed people, thinking that he was coming to the front to intercept him.
However, the white-robed young man was obviously not stupid, the puzzled and confused expression on He Ping's face was obvious, and he quickly reacted that He Ping should have nothing to do with the pursuers behind him, it was an outsider who simply didn't figure out the situation, so he quickly recovered his previous speed, and shouted while running in the direction of He Ping: "Brother on horseback, get out of here quickly, be careful of being treated as my accomplice by them!" ”
Hearing the shouts of the white-robed youth, He Ping was slightly stunned, this person is interesting, he is already unable to protect himself, he is about to be caught up, and he is still reminding others to run quickly, I don't know whether to say that he is a good person or that he is a stupid, but no matter which one it is, He Ping's first impression of this person is not bad, in short, he does not look like a treacherous person.
Seeing that He Ping was still stunned there without the slightest movement, the white-robed young man thought that He Ping was scared stupid, so he shouted at He Ping a few times, and He Ping had already decided to be nosy, so naturally he would not leave, the white-robed young man saw that He Ping never left here, and actually stopped before approaching He Ping, turned around and pulled out the long sword at his waist, confronted the black-clothed man behind him, and continued: "Brother on horseback, run, I can't drag it for too long!" ”
Seeing this scene, He Ping was a little funny, this person is really interesting, in the face of a stranger who he didn't know, he didn't care about his own safety, but also had to buy time for the stranger to escape, He Ping had spent decades of life in his previous life, and after being reborn, he shuttled through different worlds, and he was well-informed, and he saw a lot of people and saw a lot of things, although it was not the first time he saw a young man in a white robe, he could definitely count it on one hand.
Those black-robed people were not far from the white-robed youth, and as soon as the white-robed youth pulled out his long sword, the black-robed man had already come to him, but he didn't rush up immediately, and it seemed that he was also a little afraid of the white-robed youth's combat power, and He Ping, who was riding on a horse not far behind the white-robed youth, also made them a little scrupled, not knowing who He Ping was, but soon, they made up their minds, exchanged a look with each other, and rushed forward with their knives together.
Seeing the man in black rushing up, the young man in white robe took the initiative to meet him with a long sword, and soon he fought with the dozen or so people in black, what surprised He Ping a little was that this young man in white robe was not weak in combat power, and his swordsmanship was okay, only one person and one sword were on par with more than a dozen people in black, the long sword was dancing around him, and more than a dozen people in black kept attacking around him, but there was never much progress.
It's just that his physical strength is limited after all, and the dozen or so people around him don't need to take the initiative to attack, they only need to constantly exert pressure, and their physical strength can be quickly exhausted. The attention of the white-robed young man and the black-clothed man were still on each other, and they felt that He Ping, who was still on the horse just now, had already appeared in front of them, and there was already a pair of steel whips on his hands!
