In October, there are very few pedestrians on the road, it is really the sound of autumn trees, the mountains are cold, the sky is high, the sorrow is bursting, and there is a desolation far and near. The master and apprentice traveled during the day and slept in sheltered places by the roadside at night. Regardless of the fatigue of the road, Helian Longshan insisted on practicing at night, and his attainments in light and heavy skills were gradually improved.

More than one day, the master and apprentice came to Xin'an, and there were more and more pedestrians on the road, Hu and Han were mixed, each in a hurry, and his expression was strange. Qian Muqing asked Helian Longshan to wear General Lu's protective soft armor on his body in case of accidents, his legs were paralyzed, and it was inconvenient to use the long sword, so he put the Xuantie Tiger Palm on his hand.

Helian Longshan knew that there would be danger, and insisted that the master put on a talisman, Qian Muqing said: "Although the master can't walk, but the kung fu in his hands is still there, and self-defense is more than enough, your martial arts are still shallow, if you are attacked, I am afraid that you will not be able to deal with it, and you can protect yourself by wearing soft armor." ”

Qian Muqing's expression was majestic, Helian Longshan had no choice but to obey the order, put on soft armor, and wondered in his mouth: "Master, how did you perceive the danger around you?"

Qian Muqing said: "But if there is murderous intent in the heart, it will cause the murderous aura to leak out, and the fear of killing must first be fulfilled on the kidney meridian. A person with strong martial arts is true and restrained, even if he wants to kill, the opponent can't sense it, and he can have a surprising winning effect. If you deal with people who don't have martial arts, you don't need to use your hands to boost your murderous spirit, you can make people feel sore, unable to stand, and lose the ability to resist. ”

While speaking, Helian Longshan suddenly felt that his legs were weak, as if he couldn't stand, and a chill rushed from his spine to the top of his head, and he exclaimed, "Master, there is danger. ”

Qian Muqing laughed, Helian Longshan immediately understood, and said angrily: "Master, you are playing tricks on your disciple. ”

Before the words fell, he immediately said, "Thank you, Master, for your advice." I thought to myself: "If it weren't for Master's words and deeds, how would I be able to comprehend this murderous feeling!"

Qian Muqing also told him the truth of the five elements and the operation of the meridians.

The master and apprentice walked while talking, and came to a stone bridge, under which the riverbed had dried up and the artemisia grass was overgrown. Qian Muqing's face changed, as if he was facing a great enemy, and said sharply: "Which road is a friend, why don't you come out to meet!" The voice was not loud, but it was terrifying.

Helian Longshan also felt murderous, and his cold hair stood on end, so he drew a knife in his hand and protected him beside his master.

"Bah!" suddenly heard a shout, and more than a dozen people climbed under the bridge, blocking the road ahead.

If you look closely at the costumes, they are all Han Chinese. When the first big man, with broad shoulders and a round waist, a face full of meat, and a hammer in his hand, he scolded in a rough voice: "Grandma's, finally waited for the two thieves to make up enough numbers, and the brothers went to Yecheng to invite merit, and we also had an official addiction." The rest chimed in, mixed with smug smirks.

When a sturdy eagle-nosed man saw the two people in front of him, one crippled and the other young, he had the intention of underestimating the enemy, he was eager to fight for merit, jumped out with a shout, and said to the man with a hammer: "Big brother, let the younger brother end up with the lives of the two thieves." ”

The hammer-wielding man said, "Huang Laosan, be careful." Huang Laosan answered, and came to kill Qian Muqing and the others with a knife.

Helian Longshan drew a knife in his hand, stepped forward to meet him, and reprimanded: "A bold fanatic, in broad daylight, dares to commit murder. ”

Huang Laosan scolded: "Little thief, it is you who killed, and grandpa will take your head to receive a reward." ”

Before the words fell, the arrow leaped close to him, and when he saw his neck, he slashed at the neck, Helian Longshan raised his knife to parry, and with the sound of the bell, both sides took a step back, and they couldn't help but be shocked in their hearts.

Helian Longshan has practiced the kung fu of riding a horse under the supervision of his father and brother since he was a child, and the use of a steppe scimitar in his hand is a slightly blunt blade, which is suitable for riding a horse and galloping in a vigorous slashing.

Huang Laosan was even more shocked, at first he didn't put the young man in front of him in his eyes at all, and he wanted to take his life in three or two moves, but as soon as he fought with him, the long knife in his hand was almost shaken away, and half of his arm was faintly sore.

Helian Longshan learned more than one knife technique, less sophisticated, blindly pursuing fast, fierce, ruthless, he even out more than ten knives, step by step, want to blow up, kill and injure the enemy.

Huang Laosan didn't dare to hit it hard, so he used four or two thousand catties of kung fu, teasing and wiping, picking some stabs, and defusing his offensive one by one. Helian Longshan couldn't hurt his opponent with more than ten moves, and he couldn't help but feel impetuous, and his footwork gradually scattered.

Huang Laosan gradually shifted from defense to offense, accompanied by the sound of the rattling iron ring, the nine-ring knife became more and more fierce, and Helian Long Mountain was in danger for a while.

Qian Muqing saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, Helian Longshan had not studied for a long time, and he couldn't show his light and heavy skills in the fight. Qian Muqing was so anxious that he shouted from behind: "Qi gathers dantian, and strength comes from the waist." This shout did not help Helian Longshan at all, but it attracted several enemies to Qian Muqing.

The hammer-wielding man waved his hand, and two big men bypassed under the bridge to attack Qian Muqing, one with a gun and stabbed his chest, and the other smashed the top door with a stick.

Qian Muqing had no way to retreat, in a hurry, he gathered his dantian, his right hand was supported by the palm of the Xuantie Tiger, and his left hand pushed violently to the wheelchair, and the whole body jumped out of the air and backwards.

The two bandits were unprepared, thinking that they would be able to take Qian Muqing's life with a combined blow, but they never expected that he would be able to eject his body out of the wheelchair with both hands, and the gun and stick in his hand could not contain the strength and smashed the wheelchair to pieces.

Helian Longshan heard the sound behind him, and knew that the master was in danger, so he couldn't help but glance sideways. Just such a distraction, Huang Laosan moved the jade belt around the waist, the nine-ring knife swept the waist, Helian Longshan shrank his abdomen and closed his body, waiting to dodge, it was too late, only to hear a hiss, the front of the shirt was cut in two, if he was not wearing treasure armor, he would definitely have a broken stomach, he couldn't help but "ah", he was shocked into a cold sweat, and suddenly felt that his legs were rooted, and the lower plate was stable, and the whole person seemed to swell in a circle, full of infinite divine power, and he waved the knife at the moment.

It turned out that Helian Longshan practiced light skills and heavy skills for a long time, without repeated practice, when facing the enemy, he could not give full play to the role of light skills and heavy skills, the action was not fast, and the strength was not increased.

When the hammer-wielding man saw that his companion had died, he became angry and shouted, and ordered his men to surround Helian Longshan. Helian Longshan secretly screamed badly, let out a shout, performed light skills, and jumped out of the encirclement. When the bandits saw Helian Long Mountain, they were all taken aback when they saw Helian Long Mountain rising from the ground like a big bird, more than a foot high, and jumped out of the circle from the top of everyone's heads. Taking advantage of everyone's stunned efforts, Helian Longshan hurriedly went to save the master.

Qian Muqing's lower body was not effective, and he couldn't show his martial arts, so he rolled around on the ground, using his black iron tiger palm to resist the gun and stick, but for a while, the two bandits couldn't hurt him. Helian Longshan slashed twice, forcing the two enemies back, then threw away the steel knife, leaned over to pick up the master, and sprinted towards the way he came.

The bandits refused to give up and flew to chase after them. The big man with the gun chased at the front, and while chasing closely, he issued hidden weapons, sneering, and several darts were as fast as meteors, shooting straight at the back of Helian Longshan. Helian Longshan listened to the wind discernment, knew that there was a hidden weapon shooting at him, jumped and dodged, and for a while he lost sight of the other, messed up his footwork, and his breathing was disordered, but he stimulated his heavy skills, and suddenly felt that his feet were sluggish, and his legs were like falling thousands of pounds of boulders, and it was difficult to move an inch.

Qian Muqing was so anxious that he shouted, "Hold my legs." He shouted as he grabbed Helian Longshan's shoulders and stood upright in his arms. Helian Longshan took advantage of the situation and hugged his legs tightly. The big man with the gun suddenly saw that the person he was chasing stood still, and the crippled Hu man stood up from his arms, with a strange weapon in his gloves, glaring angrily, majestic, and immediately taken aback, but he was very fast and had no time to think about it, and came to stab Helian Longshan in the back with a spear.

Qian Muqing swung the Xuantie Tiger Palm to smash the spear open, turned his left hand into a knife, and slashed Huashan with force, slashing the opponent's top door. The gun-wielding man was too fast, the spear was opened, but he still couldn't contain it, and he crashed straight into Helian Longshan, and was hit by Qian Muqing, killing him instantly. At this moment, the hammer-wielding man and more than a dozen of his subordinates had already caught up and surrounded Qian Muqing's master and apprentice. The bandits chased after them and panted, and because of the power of the master and apprentice, they didn't dare to do it for a while.

Seeing that they were besieged, the master and apprentice couldn't help but be secretly anxious. Helian Longshan turned his body and simply lifted Qian Muqing up and let him ride on his neck, both of them facing the same direction. Qian Muqing is not good at using the Xuantie Tiger Palm, only because it is difficult to use the long sword in a wheelchair, so he chose it, and he is currently sitting on the shoulder of Helian Long Mountain, and the long sword is more suitable for killing enemies, but his long sword is placed under the wheelchair, and it is difficult to retrieve it in a hurry.

Qian Muqing took off the Xuantie Tiger Palm in his right hand and put it on his left hand, and said to Helian Longshan in a low voice: I want to grab a long sword.

Qian Muqing was condescending, looking around at the enemy. After seeing the situation clearly, Qian Muqing hurriedly ordered Helian Longshan to the left.

Helian Longshan glanced around, the opponents held different weapons, and a yellow-robed man on the left was holding a long sword, shining. At that moment, he jumped straight at the man in the yellow robe. At this moment, Helian Longshan has adjusted his footwork, cooperated with breathing, and used his light skills, although he was carrying a person on his shoulder, the speed was still much faster than ordinary people, and the man in the yellow robe had no time to react, the long sword in his hand had been snatched by Qian Muqing's hand, and the sword light flashed, and the head of the man in the yellow robe fell to the ground.

All the opponents were shocked, and the man with the hammer shouted to his companions to meet the enemy cautiously: "These two thieves are very evil in kung fu, everyone be careful." ”

Qian Muqing sat on the shoulders of Helian Long Mountain, just like a general riding a war horse, and his power increased greatly, and he commanded Helian Long Mountain to chase after him, attacking and killing the enemy, the long sword in his hand was like a dragon playing in the water, and it was like lightning and thunder, only to hear a chaotic sound, and the opponent screamed in the sword. Seeing that the situation was not good, the hammer-wielding man did not dare to fight, so he shouted and led the crowd to flee along the river.

Helian Longshan said happily: "Master, if you encounter robbers again, I will give you a mount, and none of us are afraid." ”

Qian Muqing said: "If my legs are good, it will be hundreds of people, and I can kill him." Now he is being bullied by these little thieves. Hey!"

Helian Longshan was afraid that the master would continue to be sentimental, so he comforted: "Master, no matter how dangerous the road ahead is, the apprentice has fought for his life, and he must carry the master to the Western Regions, find the iceberg snow lotus, and heal your legs." Qian Muqing was very pleased in his heart, so he told him the key to dealing with the enemy.

Helian Longshan put his master on the side of the road, returned to the stone bridge by himself, and retrieved the long sword, steel knife, dry food, silver coins and other things. The wheelchair had been damaged by the bandits, so Helian Longshan had to build a stretcher out of tree branches and the wooden planks of the wheelchair, dragging the master and weapons and other objects forward. Since the master and the dry food were really heavy, Helian Longshan walked for a while and rested for a while.

Along the way, it is common to see headless dead bodies abandoned in the grass, thinking that they were Hu people killed by the Han people. The master and apprentice were extremely cautious and hurried to the road.

The more westward you go, the more people there are on the road, most of them bring their families with their mouths, drive cattle and sheep, all of them are all Hu people, mighty and powerful, so not spectacular. When passing through Qinghe Town, pedestrians on the road were almost rubbing shoulders.

Helian Longshan became curious and asked a middle-aged man nearby about the reason. Seeing that he was not very old and carrying a waste man on his back, the man immediately dispelled his vigilance and sighed: "Little brother, the way of the world has changed now, and the Shi family has been taken away by Shi Min, a dog slave he raised. Whoever is Han and kills one of our Hu people, he can take the head to Yecheng to receive the reward, the literati are knighted, and the warriors are all knighted.

The Central Plains can't stay anymore, so it's better to go back to his hometown in the Saiwai grassland. Hey! The Han people along the way are eyeing each other, and they want to take our heads to Yecheng to invite merit, which is really dangerous, and I am satisfied to return to the grassland safely. ”

Amid the lamentation, the middle-aged man hurried forward to chase his family. Helian Longshan was young and knew very little about national affairs, and he was still confused when he heard the complaints of the middle-aged man.

Qian Muqing has been in the Yecheng Martial Arts Academy for many years, and he also knows a little about national affairs, listening to the man's words, thinking of the situation in the world that Old Doctor Zhang told him, and the words that the hammer-wielding man wanted to take his own and Helian Longshan's heads to Yecheng to receive the reward, he immediately understood the reason, and then explained to Helian Longshan in detail.

It turned out that at the beginning of the year, Shi Hu, the king of Zhao, died of illness as soon as he became emperor, and his son killed each other for the throne, and the Zhao empire fell apart in an instant. Shi Huyi's son, Shi Min, was brave and strategic, and took the opportunity to control the national capital Yecheng.
