Chapter 4 The Wind Rises in Yuzhou
At the beginning of the Dadong Dynasty, the territory was vast, stretching for tens of thousands of miles. In addition to the huge forces led by the imperial capital county, it is also divided into four major counties; To the east of Dadong is Donghuang County, to the west of Dadong is Taishan County, to the south of Dadong is Tianshui County, and to the north of Dadong is Shanhe County. The four counties are headed by the imperial city and the county, divided into four weeks, and the tribute is paid every year, and the kings of each county are divided and guarded, and the world can be regarded as stable.
Nowadays, the puppet emperor led by the prime minister has grown and is in charge of the internal affairs of the imperial court. The prime minister is narrow-minded, only cares about fighting for power and profit, and connives, and his subordinates do misdeeds, and the people are dissatisfied. The power of the major county kings is becoming stronger and stronger, and they disobey the orders of the imperial court and fight secretly.
As the so-called government is not right, the law is not enforced, the ministers are becoming more and more greedy, and the villains are becoming more and more rampant, so that the power of the rivers and lakes can rise rapidly, and the world is chaotic, starting from this. In the name of righteousness, the Kunshan faction, Fengting Shuixuan, Wandaomen, and Sword Sect began to recruit disciples, and in just a few years, they have become the overlords of one side, forcing the four major county kings to concede three points.
Nowadays, there are frequent bizarre murders in Yucheng, and the four major factions and major forces have gone to investigate it in order to strengthen its prestige.
Yucheng Fang County.
A group of disciples of the Kunshan Sect have arrived dozens of miles away from Fang County. After passing a forest, the forest is unusually dense and extremely eerie.
A Kunshan disciple asked in a low voice: Senior Brother Lu, how is this forest gloomy, there will be no ambush.
Lu Qingshan: "Don't worry, your Senior Brother Lu, I have been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and I have never seen any battles, besides, my Kunshan faction is also a well-known gate faction in the rivers and lakes, how many people in the rivers and lakes dare to provoke?"
The Kunshan disciples already admired Senior Brother Lu very much, although among the five major disciples of the head of the sect, Lu Qingshan's martial arts were the worst, but even the worst head disciples were much stronger than them ordinary disciples.
The Kunshan disciple echoed and said: "What Senior Brother Lu said makes sense, with Senior Brother Lu's reputation in the rivers and lakes, I'm afraid that there are really any thieves who have to go around, how dare they attack us." ”
For these flattering words, Lu Qingshan was very useful, and said to the disciples: "Senior disciples, don't worry ahead, your Senior Brother Lu is not in vain in the rivers and lakes. I will soon arrive in Fang County, and I will cheer up, this time I must seek justice for our Kunshan disciples, find out the murderer of our disciples, eliminate harm for the world, and let the rivers and lakes know that our Kunshan faction is the first sect. ”
Lu Qingshan swaggered to the forefront, and all the disciples were not worried when they saw this, and followed Lu Qingshan into the woods.
Kunshan sent everyone to the depths of the woods, and although the woods rustled, they did not encounter any obstacles, and everyone relaxed their vigilance.
Lu Qingshan: "Everyone is tired of walking, just rest here first, and when you come out of this forest, you should almost reach Fang County." ”
The disciples replied, "Yes, Senior Brother Lu." It's just that everyone was just about to rest, when suddenly there was a sound of breaking wind.
Lu Qingshan: "It's not good, there is an ambush." ”
After all, Lu Qingshan has a lot of experience in the rivers and lakes, and he reacted quickly, and quickly dodged a sudden bow and arrow.
In just an instant, hundreds of bows and arrows were fired in unison, and a group of disciples drew their swords to block, or dodge. It's just that the incident happened suddenly, and everyone couldn't dodge, and soon more than half of the Kunshan Sect disciples were seriously injured, even Lu Qingshan was also grazed by a few arrows, and his movement was somewhat restricted.
At this moment, a dark laugh echoed through the woods.
"The Kunshan faction is nothing more than that, and the four major sects of the rivers and lakes are probably all wasted people."
Lu Qingshan: "Where is the thief, he will only put a cold arrow behind his back, and he won't dare to show his face." ”
I saw that in the woods, a hundred and ten people rushed out quickly, wearing black armor and faces. Quickly surrounded dozens of Kunshan sect disciples.
Lu Qingshan: "What kind of Xiaoxiao should I be, it is really a group of rabble who dare not show their faces." ”
Suddenly, several leaves quickly attacked Lu Qingshan, Lu Qingshan didn't dare to be careless, and quickly dodged over. The two disciples in the back were directly pierced by the leaves and fell to the ground.
"Death is on the verge of death, and you are still talking wildly, I will see how long you can be hard-mouthed." A man in a black cloak and a red ghostly face crossed over the heads of the black-armored men and landed in front of them, apparently the leader of the attackers.
Although it was only a round of fighting, Lu Qingshan knew that this person's martial arts were not under him, so he eased and said: "I don't know who Your Excellency is, is it possible that my Kunshan sect disciple has offended something, and today I will ask for the guilt here, the country will not change, the green water will flow for a long time, and I hope that Your Excellency will open the net, and it is better to have more friends than one more enemy in the rivers and lakes." ”
I saw the red-faced man snort coldly. Disappreciatively, he said: "My ghost sect acts to kill people, why do you need a reason, besides, we don't need friends, give it to me." ”
The red-ghost-faced man gave an order, and a group of black armor rushed towards the Kunshan Sect disciples.
Lu Qingshan saw that reconciliation could not be made, and he was no longer polite.
Lu Qingshan said angrily: "If I really want to be bullied by the Kunshan faction, the brothers will give it to me." ”
Lu Qingshan's internal force penetrated into his left hand and slashed out, and several black-armored people who had just rushed up were directly slashed back by the sword qi for several meters, and they couldn't afford to be seriously injured. When the Kunshan disciples saw Senior Brother Lu so domineering with a sword, they were not afraid, and shouted and fought with the black armor who rushed up.
The red-faced man was naturally not weak, holding a half-foot short sword in each hand, and his speed was extremely fast, cutting through the throats of two Kunshan sect disciples in an instant, only forcing towards Lu Qingshan.
The long sword in Lu Qingshan's hand shook, and he faced him head-on, and in an instant, the two had fought for dozens of rounds, no matter how good they were.
The red-ghost-faced man was also shocked at this time, "This Kunshan swordsmanship is really powerful, and it doesn't seem to be a fist embroidered leg, but it's a pity." ”
The two sides come and go, each has its own losses, although the Kunshan faction has excellent swordsmanship, but because of the sneak attack and plot first, the number of people on the opposite side has an advantage, and it has always been at a disadvantage.
Lu Qingshan saw that the Kunshan disciples were gradually defeated, and he was also very anxious. It's just that this red-faced man has a strange body, and he can't help it for a while.
"It's not good, the bow and arrow were poisonous just now." Lu Qingshan suddenly noticed that the internal force was instantly chaotic, and he couldn't make it, and with a miss, his left arm was pierced by the red ghost-faced male short sword, and he took a few steps back. At this time, the disciples of the Kunshan faction who were injured by bows and arrows were also hit one after another and fell to the ground.
The red ghost-faced man said proudly: "It's too late to find out now, hahahaha." ”
Lu Qingshan: "You will regret it, all the disciples will follow me to fight a bloody path." Lu Qingshan shouted while holding his sword and wanted to flee.
But where did the red ghost-faced man let go, and chased after him. Lu Qingshan and dozens of disciples of the Kunshan faction were in danger.
Lu Qingshan felt remorse in his heart, he knew that if he was not careless, he might not end up in such an embarrassing end.
At this time, a strange fragrance wafted in, and the people in black armor suddenly seemed to have scattered cartilage in their bodies, and they became weak.
The red-faced man secretly said that it was not good.
shouted to a group of black-armored people: "It's the prince of thyme, let's withdraw." "For the Thyme Boy of the Hidden Dragon Pavilion, I am afraid that everyone in the rivers and lakes knows about it, and no one knows it. Especially the Ghost Sect, he has fought with the Hidden Dragon Pavilion many times, but he has not taken advantage of it once, and he smells so strange at this time, where do he dare to stay.
Soon the men in black disappeared cleanly.
Lu Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and shouted into the depths of the woods: "Thank you, the grace of the bailiff boy, if you can use my Kunshan faction in the future, let me know, and I Lu will definitely go all out." ”
"These things that are not human or ghost even dare to come out during the day to make a mistake, this time it is just to teach them a lesson, if it is not for the important things to do today, none of them will want to run away, as for saving you, it is just a gesture, no need to mind." A few words came from afar in the woods, and there was no more movement.
Kunshan sent everyone out of danger, as if they had picked up a life, and they were relieved. This time it was also an eye-opener, although he was curious about this thyme boy, but no one dared to ask Senior Brother Lu at this time.
Lu Qingshan saw that the prince of thyme was unwilling to stay, and he didn't care, and said to the disciples: "Everyone support each other and walk quickly, there are a few miles to Fang County, and after arriving, we will have a good rest." ”
A group of Kunshan disciples walked out of the woods with their support.
Lu Qingshan walked in front with a sword, with mixed feelings in his heart: "It seems that this trip to Fangxian in Yuzhou may not be easy." ”
