Chapter 18: Clearing the Frost and Snow

There are hundreds of bandits, wielding short knives and spears against the enemy, quite fierce, the number of caravans is less than half of the bandits, but they can hold on to the formation, relying on the change of formation.

Qiao Kun watched these two teams fight, and couldn't help but feel weird. There is quite a rule between the advance and retreat of the two teams, which is obviously the cooperation of the military formation.

And he also recognized the logo of the caravan, this was the Wei family in Chuzhou, and he didn't know that the caravan still had this kind of combat power.

However, there is still a gap between the number of caravans and bandits, and I am afraid that it will be a matter of time before they are defeated.

Since it is the Wei family, Qiao Kun can't stand by and watch, the Wei family has indeed helped Xiqi a lot over the years, and has helped him a lot.

Thinking so, he drove the carriage forward, and before he could make any move, the caravan guards shouted: "We are the Wei family of Chuzhou, if Your Excellency can help us ventilate the news, there will be a good reward." ”

When the bandits heard this, they hurriedly divided a few people to come up to surround Qiao Kun.

Qiao Kun couldn't help frowning when he heard this, this guard said this, he really didn't necessarily expect him to report the news, but he was afraid that the possibility of disaster would be greater.

However, the bandits have already arrived, and they are violent, and Qiao Kun is not polite.

He left the carriage, approached one of them, snatched the spear from his hand, and with a shake of the spear, three spear shadows appeared, and struck the three men in the chest, knocking them on their stomachs. It's not a great move, it's just basic marksmanship plus quick hands.

All this was just a flash of lightning, and neither team expected that the battle would end so quickly.

The robbers sent ten more men.

These ten people were divided into two groups, and sure enough, they cooperated with the army and fought as a unit.

These two bandits did not rush together, but cooperated with each other with long and short weapons, and they could see that their martial arts were strong when they walked.

Qiao Kun was not afraid, when he first went down the mountain, he could play eight teams of this kind of ten-person elite team. Now that his strength has increased, even if he has to hide his strength, he will not be able to cope with even one team.

A spear was as fast as the wind in his hand, like a golden dragon swinging its tail, but in an instant, Qiao Kun knocked these ten people down.

This change exceeded the bandits' expectations, obviously they didn't expect Qiao Kun to be so brave, and soon two more teams came to Qiao Kun, and even mobilized bows and arrows to suppress Qiao Kun.

It's just that at this time, the caravan guards rushed out, fearless of death, but for a while they broke the bandits, and it was useless to even restrain the leader.

After a while, the bandits scattered and fled, and those who could not escape surrendered one after another, leaving only the leader-like characters who fought and refused to surrender. The leader's marksmanship is not bad, with one against two, he does not fall behind, but he is still outnumbered and restrained by everyone.

At this time, the girl dressed as a man yesterday stepped forward and asked Qiao Kun, "You are so powerful, is it a legend of martial arts?" What kind of Vault is it that has been opened? ”

The young man in his twenties next to him hurriedly pulled her, obviously afraid that she would anger Qiao Kun.

This young man's martial arts cultivation is not weak, but he was seriously injured, and the battle with the bandits just now did not help much, and it was also a bit of a drag on the girl who was disguised as a man.

However, Qiao Kun was not angry, he had the ability of the gods to sense the supernatural powers, he could sense the thoughts of this girl somewhat, she just wanted to find a master for the young man next to her.

It turned out to be the plot of Rong'er and Brother Jing, it turned out that I had already reached the time to be Hong Qigong, thinking so, Qiao Kun smiled and said: "You guessed it right, I am a legend of martial arts, and what I opened up is a mysterious treasure." ”

As soon as these words came out, sure enough, Qingxue's face showed a look of surprise, "Then will you accept us as apprentices?" ”

"Clear the snow, don't be unreasonable!" At this time, two young girls walked down from a carriage, one of them was fifteen or sixteen years old, although he was young, he was already very beautiful, and he was vigorous, and his martial arts cultivation was not weak, but this was just a maid.

This maid was supporting a woman of eighteen or nineteen, and that was the young lady.

It's just that although this young lady is dressed in brocade and wears jewelry, her appearance is mediocre, and her figure is thin, not half as good-looking as the maid next to her, and she doesn't look like a young lady.

Although she has a mediocre appearance, she has a confident and calm demeanor between her eyebrows, which makes people know that she is the one who speaks. At this moment she spoke, and everyone else listened to her.

The young lady stepped forward and bowed, "The Wei family in Chuzhou, Wei Qingshuang has seen Mr. Dare to ask the gentleman's name and surname? ”

The Wei family in Chuzhou? Wei Qingshuang? Qiao Kun didn't deliberately inquire about who the Wei family was, and he really didn't know what Wei Qingxue's status was in the Wei family. After all, his work is all entrusted to Long Huan and Ji Yi.

But no matter what Wei Qingshuang's identity is, he doesn't care, he looked at Wei Qingxue again, and felt interesting, Hong Qigong's name was about to be exported, but he temporarily changed his words, "It turns out that Miss Qingshuang, my surname is Qiao, and people call me Qiao Sanhuai." "Qiao Sanhuai is also neat to Hong Qigong.

"It turns out that the husband's surname is Joe." Wei Qingshuang only glanced at Qiao Kun, and said, "My caravan guard suddenly spoke, let Mr. get involved in the incident, and my Wei family will have compensation." ”

While speaking, someone had already offered a hundred taels of gold, and Wei Qingshuang said again: "This is a hundred taels of gold, I hope Mr. don't care." ”

In fact, the guard's words were similar to harming people's lives, but Qiao Kun didn't mean to deal with mortals, so he took the gold and put it away.

In fact, now Qiao Kun is more interested in this Wei Qingshuang. Because he couldn't sense Wei Qingshuang's emotions clearly.

It's not that this Wei Qingshuang has any treasures to protect himself, but that his mood rarely fluctuates. This girl looks like a smart and changeable person, but for some reason her mood is calm.

Wei Qingshuang introduced a few more people to Qiao Kun, and the woman she saw yesterday dressed as a man was called Wei Qingxue, who was Wei Qingshuang's sister. And the young man in his twenties is called Wei Ben, who belongs to the branch of the Wei family.

This made Qiao Kun a little surprised, then Wei Qingxue was a little interesting. As the eldest lady of the family, she can still endure hardships and take care of the people who are separated. Actually, they are a couple.

At this time, Wei Qingxue stepped forward again, with a flattering expression on her face, "Mr. Qiao, will you take me and Wei Ben as apprentices?" ”

Suddenly, Qiao Kun seemed to see the fiery golden-eyed beast selling cuteness, and felt amiable for a while, so he smiled and said, "If you can promise one thing, I will accept him." ”

"Master, you say." Hearing that things had taken a turn for the better, Wei Qingxue hurriedly agreed, as if she was afraid that Qiao Kun would regret it.

Qiao Kun said with a smile: "I want you to make a good soup and jade flute, who listens to Luomei." ”

As soon as these words came out, Wei Qingxue looked dazed, obviously not knowing what it was.

Qiao Kun was just about to explain that everyone in the caravan had tied up all the robbers, but he came to ask Wei Qingshuang.

got Wei Qingshuang's answer, and everyone went down. In a short time, a dozen bandits were escorted, including the robber who looked like the leader.

They asked, "Who are you?" Why attack us? ”

The man, who was in his forties and looked more like a general than a bandit, snorted coldly, "Who is fighting with me?" He asked me, and I said. ”

Everyone looked at Wei Qingshuang, it turned out that she was the commander of the battle just now.

Wei Qingshuang stepped forward to salute and said with a smile: "General, your battle formation method is quite ancient, and Qingshuang admires it." ”

"It turns out that you are the one who overwhelmed me in the battle array." The general still couldn't believe it.

Wei Qingxue said again: "Could it be that you are a soldier under the command of Deng Jiugong, the chief soldier of Sanshan Pass?" ”

After saying this, all the bandits were stunned, and after a while, the leader said: "What Miss said is not bad, we were originally soldiers of Sanshan Pass." My name is Chen Geng, and I am a pawn chief. "The commander is in charge of Wutian, and there are 2,500 soldiers, which can be regarded as a small general.

Wei Qingshuang said: "Why don't you return to Xiqi? Obviously, she also knew something about Xiqi and knew that Deng Jiugong had surrendered.

Hearing this, Chen Geng snorted coldly, "Deng Jiugong, he suffered a defeat, lost his soldiers and horses, he was afraid of being questioned by the king, and it happened that his captured daughter came back to persuade him to surrender, so he naturally surrendered to Xiqi, so that he would not lose his glory, and the family could still reunite in Xiqi." ”

The words were quite sad and indignant, so they didn't even shout a word from Marshal Deng and General Deng Bing.

Chen Geng said again: "But I still have my mother and wife at home in Sanshanguan, so I can only go back." I gathered the remnants of the defeated army, more than 400 people, and I wanted to take them back to Sanshan Pass. But I broke my promise and couldn't bring them home. ”

So much so that the man began to weep bitterly. There were also some soldiers next to him who comforted him and said, "Brother Chen, it's not your fault!" It's all that Deng Jiugong is not good. ”

These soldiers were unwilling to return to Xiqi, thinking of fleeing back to Sanshan Pass, but as a result, Xili Lake Tu came to this step, how could these soldiers not grieve?

The surrender of tens of thousands of troops will have a great impact and will affect many soldiers. Therefore, Deng Jiugong did not surrender immediately that day, but spent a lot of time dealing with the beginning and the end before surrendering.

Even though Deng Jiugong led the troops, he was able to enforce orders and prohibitions, and he was also loved by the soldiers, but these soldiers still had their parents in Sanshan Pass. It is impossible to surrender to Xiqi with it.

Deng Jiugong was able to surrender and still have 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers to follow, which was already very popular with the army.

Of course, this is also because Deng Jiugong is not ruthless enough. Some generals may conceal the news, and then fool all the soldiers, bring the soldiers to the Xiqi encirclement, and treat all the soldiers as the rank of promotion, even if the soldiers oppose it, they are powerless.

Deng Jiugong still left a way back for the soldiers who were unwilling to surrender, although this back road was not easy to follow.

There are thousands of miles from Xiqi to Sanshan Pass, and even if the soldiers' physical strength is three or five times stronger than that of ordinary people, it is not so easy to walk back. It's no wonder that they have a lot of complaints about Deng Jiugong.

When Wei Qingshuang heard this, he said: "In this case, I have a way, if you are willing, I am willing to recruit you as a guard, okay?" ”

Chen Geng just shook his head, "I just want to go back to my hometown." ”

Since this is the case, Wei Qingshuang was not reluctant, and only said: "There is a stronghold in a few hundred miles, if you really don't want to go back to Chuzhou with us, I will arrange for someone to send you back to Sanshan Pass." ”

There is no food, even some carriages and horses, and it is also troublesome for Chen Geng and them to go to Sanshan Pass.

It seems that Wei Qingshuang has a very high status in the Wei family, and since she spoke like this, others have no objections.

After dealing with these, Wei Qingxue hurriedly asked, "What is good soup?" What is the jade flute, who listens to Luomei? "Obviously, I'm still thinking about finding a master for Wei Ben.

At this time, Wei Qingshuang pulled Wei Qingxue, but showed him a carriage, Wei Qingxue understood, so he left here and went to that carriage.

Wei Qingxue left, and Wei Qingshuang smiled: "Let Mr. see and laugh." ”

In fact, Qiao Kun was quite happy to be able to be a grandfather, he looked at Wei Ben and looked at him, "Your martial arts have basically reached the peak." Although Chen Geng's martial arts are not weak, his strength is far worse than yours. It's just that you're injured and can't play to your full strength. If you can heal your injuries, even hundreds of people may not be your opponents, so why point out? ”

Wei Ben said: "What Mr. said is not bad, but if it is not a legend, it is ordinary." Mr. movements are extremely simple, but the whole body is relaxed and natural, this is the legendary state of the unity of heaven and man, so he does not step into the air, emitting a strong breath, one person can deal with an army of thousands of people, even if I am in good condition, I will definitely not be able to walk ten moves in your hands. ”

Ten moves? Qiao Kunxin said, you really think of yourself, I should only use one move to beat you, even if I only use one-tenth of my strength. But it was too rude for him to say it.

Wei Ben said again: "I want to ask Mr. for the method of achieving the legend of martial arts, as well as the method of opening up the secret treasure of martial arts." Ask Mr. to be fulfilled. ”

These things are not important to Qiao Kun, and he is willing to spread them. After all, he is also willing to make more Terrans stronger. It's just that the method of opening up the secret treasure of the martial arts is not beneficial for ordinary martial artists. And the law should not be passed on lightly.

Seeing this, Wei Ben immediately knelt down and saluted Qiao Kun, "I am willing to be a disciple of Mr. and be driven by Mr." ”

Qiao Kun couldn't help but sigh, can the achievement of martial arts legends really make people make this sacrifice? However, this Wei Ben does have the possibility of achieving martial arts legends. He asked, "Isn't it true that even your Chu Zhou Wei family can't find the way to achieve the legend of the martial arts and open up the secret treasure of the martial arts?" ”

Although the Wei family in Chuzhou is only a businessman, they have a very large wealth, and even they can't collect the method of opening up the secret treasure of the martial arts? In fact, this is redundant, if the Wei family had it, Wei Ben would not have begged him like this.

On the side, Wei Qingshuang said: "Wei Ben is more suitable for the method of Yuan Mystery Concealment, and this secret method is very rare. ”

Meta mystical hidden? Qiao Kun thought for a while, then looked at Wei Ben, and found that there was a strong force in his body that was thick and endless, constantly affecting the recovery of the injury. Is this the "Yamazawa Jin", or the martial arts legend uses true qi to urge the "Yamazawa Jin".

Qiao Kunxin said that it turned out that Wei Ben was injured by the Ji family's "rigidity, softness, yin and yang". Although this strength is strong, it has not been urged to the extreme, otherwise Wei Benji will be unpredictable.

This is strange, why was Wei Ben injured by "Shan Ze Jin"?

In Xiqi, the martial arts legend that can cultivate this strength to such a point, the Ji family should only have the old man Zhongyong at present. Although the old man Zhongyong did not cultivate the "Qiankun Jin", he only cultivated the "Shanze Jin", after all, it is a martial arts legend. If he shot with all his might, even if Wei Ben was the peak strength of a martial artist, he should not have escaped with his life.

Is it the mercy of Old Man Zhongyong? What is the reason for his mercy? Is it because he is approaching his life and can't go all out? But is there osmanthus wine to supplement Shouyuan?
