Chapter 1 The Road Meets the Red Road
The sunlight shines through the verdant bamboo leaves, the mist is slight, the water vapor is thick, it is the rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River, and there is a rustling sound in the ears from time to time.
A woman in blue, holding a bamboo leaf in her mouth casually, stood on a bamboo tree with one foot only the thickness of the bowl, and looked silently at a group of black-clothed people not far from her.
This woman's name is Mu Nantang, and she took the order of the ninth uncle and came to the city of Songhai to inquire about the situation of the rebels in the imperial court.
Although she is not a member of the court, she has always liked to meddle in things. No, when I passed by this bamboo forest, I saw someone in ambush, and I couldn't help but intervene.
At this time, the woman with excellent ear power heard the sound of horses' hooves, and a group of people participating in the business came into view, and their conversation also came into her ears.
A purple-clothed boy riding a blood-red red rabbit horse complained dissatisfiedly: "Seventh brother, how long is it left?" β
The man in white beside him replied, "Ninth brother, don't be impatient, there is not much to go." Although his tone was flat and cold, Nan Tang still keenly caught a trace of tenderness between his words.
The man in white rode close to his ninth brother on horseback and teased in an affectionate tone: "A child is a child, I'm tired so soon." β
The man in purple was originally intoxicated by his seventh brother's doting on him, but as soon as he heard this, he angrily whipped his horsewhip to the ground, stirring up a thin layer of sand. He snorted coldly and ignored the man in white.
According to Mu Nancheng's observation, this man in white is by no means simple, although his tone is flat, he still can't stop his innate kingly spirit. Compared with the man in white, the man in purple is slightly naΓ―ve, and the city government is estimated to be not so deep.
So the target of the ambush is this group of people.
At this moment, a strange sound flashed in her ears, and she saw someone on the bamboo tree opposite swinging a hemp rope, quickly going around the neck of the man in purple and pulling him off the horse.
Nan Tang thought to himself: It's miserable, I actually forgot what I was here for. Do these guys still have a sense of integrity? It's unforgivable to do it to a child!
But to her surprise, the man in white didn't seem to be worried about his brother's appearance, but chuckled, "Who is it?" Come out. β
The group of black-clothed men floated down from the bamboo tree, but the man in the middle suddenly fell to the ground before he could speak.
At this time, the man in white saw Mu Nan Tang suddenly appear behind the man who fell to the ground. She held the Shui Han Sword in her hand, and the red blood flowed from the blade.
Mu Nanju gently blew the bamboo leaves in his mouth into the air, and then said coldly: "What kind of hero is a hero if you use a child as a hostage", and his tone was full of disdain.
A man in black put his sword on the neck of the man in purple, as if threatening.
She didn't bother to talk nonsense, and when she swung her sword, she saw that the sword qi shot straight into other people's lives like a long rainbow through the sun. Before some of the men in black could react, they only felt severe pain all over their bodies and fell to the ground unconscious. Some dodged the sword intent, but they seemed to be hit by Mu Nan Tangerine, and they hit the delicate copper ball that Mu Nan Tang had already thrown.
In an instant, a puff of smoke rose from everyone's feet, but Mu Nan Tang appeared in front of the enemy like a ghost. She also winked playfully, quickly walked behind the man, stretched out her hand and clicked on a few acupuncture points, causing the person to slump to the ground.
The man in purple was freed, but he didn't appreciate it. He patted the ash on his body and said, "Master, I don't need you to save me, just your three-legged cat kung fu, I'm afraid that if you can't get past me in ten moves, you will have to admit defeat." β
Nan Tang was not annoyed, and muttered in a low voice: "Today's children are just joking." β
The man in white turned over and dismounted, saluted, and said, "Thank you, girl, for saving me, my brother is stubborn by nature, speaks inappropriately, lacks discipline, and is rude." β
Nan Tang nodded and smiled heartily: "It's okay, it's okay, kid." β
The man in purple quickly caught that sensitive word, and became angry: "You! Before he could finish speaking, he was pulled by the man in white beside him.
The man in white asked politely, "Dare to ask the girl's name?" β
The woman waved her hand in a chic manner: "My name is Mu Nantang, and I don't have any name." β
The man in white said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: "Mu Nantang, a very nice name." My name is Yue Beihuai, this is my ninth brother, Yue Xiaojiu. β
Mu Nanju couldn't help but walk up to Xiao Jiu, stretched out his hand to pinch his round face, and said, "Such a cute little kid and that group of bastards actually can't bear to be tied up." β
Nan Tang felt that Xiao Jiu's resentful eyes were a little terrifying at this time, so he slowly withdrew his hand. She pointed to Yue Xiaojiu's neck: "Xiao Jiu, your neck was strangled red by them, remember to apply medicine." I still have something to do, so I'll see you next time. β
She smiled and waved her hand to Yue Beihuai, and then left with her sword.
After Mu Nancheng left, Yue Beihuai had not retracted his gaze.
Yue Xiaojiu poked Yue Beihuai with a horsewhip and said, "Brother, could it be that you have taken a fancy to this Mu Nan Tangerine?" The ridicule of Xiao Jiu's words was overflowing.
Beihuai replied with a smile: "It's not that you don't know, I have your Pu'er sister in my heart." It's just that this woman's kung fu is indeed very extraordinary, and her light skills are first-class, neither we nor the group of people in black have found her. β
"Brother, that's not what I care about."
"Oh? Are you worried that she might already know who we are and will be an obstacle to us? β
"Still not right." Xiao Jiu shook his head, and then spoke: "Brother, I mean, do you think Nan Tang is beautiful or Sister Pu'er is beautiful?"
When Beihuai heard it, he was stunned: Eh, this kid only knows how to tease him.
Nan Tang is indeed very beautiful, her complexion is originally white, and her blue clothes are lined with it, which makes her skin look like cream. And her facial features are small and exquisite, with willow leaves and curved eyebrows, bright eyes and bright teeth, like a beautiful spring snow. Unlike the average lady, she has a rare wild beauty.
Pu'er, on the other hand, is the complete opposite, and the beauty of women's weakness is vividly reflected in her. If you use a poem to describe it, it is: the quality is proud and frosty, and the fragrance contains autumn dew.
He chuckled, blushed slightly, and said lightly, "Of course it's Pu'er." β
Xiao Jiu looked at the weird flush on Beihuai's face, and deliberately said loudly: "Brother, you are selfish, I think Nan Tang looks much better." β
"What did you say, dead child?"
"Brothers, you see that my brother is angry because of Sister Pu'er," Xiao Jiu said to the people who accompanied him.
Everyone laughed when they heard this, but they were glared at by Beihuai angrily, so they stopped laughing.
Good boy, see if I don't kill you.
Towards the end of the night, the group had already walked to the city of Songhai, the twilight was getting thicker, and the dim light gently buckled the window. They came to an inn, gave the horses to the groom, asked for some superior rooms, and went to rest.
