Volume 1 Chapter 24 Zhan Peiyuan (5)
Zheng Hengzhou was seriously injured, his concentration was insufficient, and he burst into tears, only letting Mao Duxin lead him and crying: "Senior brother...... Master, they ...... We can't ......."
Mao Duxin held back his sadness, pulled Zheng Hengzhou into the inner hall, and after meeting with the two seniors, he walked towards the backyard. Tianhengzi and the abbot of Miaokong supported each other, led the way in front, and went to the secret passage in the backyard. The secret passage is behind a rockery. The four of them turned the rockery, only to see one person sitting on the big stone outside the secret passage, and Song Baicheng, the owner of the lonely sail village, lying at his feet, looked like he was dead.
Tianhengzi recognized the other party, immediately raised his internal breath, raised his long sword, and said: "Cao Wenxin, you gelding, kill my junior brother, I want you to pay for your life!" ”
Cao Wenxin stood up and smiled coldly: "Tianhengzi, you useless thing, you can't beat Grandpa Wei, so you want to escape?" ”
"I'll kill you, it's not too late to escape!" After saying that, the long sword swung and slashed over.
Master Miaokong pulled Mao Duxin and said, "You go first." We'll come later. ”
Zheng Hengzhou pulled the abbot's wrist and said hurriedly: "Master abbot......"
Miaokong shook his backhand: "Amitabha, young heroes don't have to worry, the Shaolin and Huashan factions will not be bullied." After speaking, he unfolded his golden palm, roared, and joined the battle group.
Mao Duxin hugged Zheng Hengzhou and walked in from the entrance of the rockery. They descended the steps, lit a torch on the wall, and walked down the tunnel. After walking for more than half a mile, I vaguely saw the moonlight shining in front of me. Mao Duxin extinguished the torch and continued to move forward, crawling out of the cave and looking around, the nearby weeds were overgrown so that no one could find them.
He helped Zheng Hengzhou up, hid in the grass, and slowly sneaked. When he came to the edge of the grass, Zheng Hengzhou smelled a trace of gunpowder smoke in the air, and hurriedly ripped off Mao Duxin. The two of them lay on the ground, looking at the distant scene through the weeds. I saw a clearing in front of me, and beyond that was a forest.
Patches of blood could be faintly seen in the clearing, and they looked particularly strange in the moonlight. Zheng Hengzhou said in a low voice: "Wei Zhongxian transferred the Shenji Battalion to guard this place. This road is not working, turn back first. ”
The two turned back to the grass, and within a few steps they noticed blood on the grass. They followed the trail of blood and found a corpse on the ground, which they recognized as Takesaburo.
Zheng Hengzhou looked down and saw that there were three more blood holes in his chest, which were shot by the muskets of the Shenji Battalion. He groped for a while, found a copy of Pei Yuan's secret book, and then continued with Mao Duxin. After walking for a while, Zheng Hengzhou was cold and struggling, and Mao Duxin simply carried him on his back.
"Senior brother, time is pressing, and we can't be sneaky. Pick a direction, this is a hard break, right? ”
"The Shenji Battalion is subordinate to the Praetorian Guard, and it is not under the control of Dongchang, and Wei Zhongxian can't transfer many of them. They will hold the east, but most of them will not be able to hold the west. Zheng Hengzhou looked up at the starry sky, recognized the direction, and said, "Let's go west." ”
"Okay." Mao Duxin mentioned his true qi, walked like flying, and ran towards the west on the spot.
This run could not hide his whereabouts, and the ambush soldiers around him immediately moved.
Mao Duxin ran very fast, and several Dongchang fans were left behind before they had time to rush to them. Hearing the sound of breaking the wind, Mao Duxin's long sword came out of its sheath, and he didn't stop at his feet, shooting down all the hidden weapons that came to him.
It didn't take long for several people to rush forward, and Mao Duxin unfolded the Cangsong swordsmanship, one sword at a time, and slashed all the opponents. After running for several miles, Mao Duxin breathed heavily and his pace slowed down, but fortunately there was no trace of the pursuers for a while. Just as he was about to put down Zheng Hengzhou to rest, a person suddenly stepped out from under the tree in front of him.
Under the moonlight, I could see that it was Admiral Wei Zhongxian.
Zheng and Mao were discouraged.
Zheng Hengzhou jumped off Mao Duxin's back and stood side by side with his junior brother.
Mao Duxin raised his sword flatly, pointed directly at Wei Zhongxian, and said: "Senior brother, I didn't expect that my Cang Sect would be destroyed here today. ”
Zheng Hengzhou shook his head: "You go first, my palace ......"
"Don't go to the palace." Mao Du believed. "Let's do it vigorously."
Zheng Hengzhou took off and landed the dragon god palm, Mao Duxin played the thirteen tribulations of Cangsong, Wei Zhongxian had no moves, pushed with both palms, and the two heroes immediately flew out backwards and fell to the ground. Zheng Hengzhou's whole body was so weak that he could no longer move, and he watched Wei Zhongxian leap into the air and shoot down with a palm towards him.
I heard a familiar woman's voice shouting, "Brother Zheng! Zheng Hengzhou's breath was stopped, his eyes were dark, and he didn't know about it.
Zheng Hengzhou was groggy, and he didn't know how much time had passed. From time to time, he felt his breath running, as if someone was pulling out the cold poison for him, but he couldn't pull it out. Suddenly I began to feel a jolt around my body, as if I was rushing in a car. Later, the acupuncture points all over his body tingled, and he knew that someone was helping him with acupuncture and moxibustion. As the cold poison faded away, he slowly regained his senses. One day, he felt that someone helped him get up and fed him medicine, he barely opened his eyes, vaguely saw Mao Duxin's figure, and then passed out again.
When I woke up again, my mind was finally clearer. He opened his eyes, felt a slight tingling, and reached out to cover them, and it took a moment before he could see what was in front of him. He was in a palatial bedroom, lying on a warm and comfortable bed, covered with a fragrant embroidered quilt. He turned his head to look out and saw the little junior brother sitting on the bedside chair, looking at him with joy.
"Big brother, thank goodness you're finally awake." Mao Duxin said excitedly. "Thirsty? I'm going to pour you a cup of tea. ”
As soon as he asked, Zheng Hengzhou immediately felt his mouth dry, so he nodded. Mao Duxin hurriedly ran to the coffee table to pour tea, and then hurriedly ran back to feed Zheng Hengzhou tea. After drinking, Zheng Hengzhou's head was more sober, he sat up along the head of the bed, and asked, "Where is this?" His voice was so hoarse that he could barely recognize himself.
Mao Duxin replied: "Shuntian Mansion Yingyan Tower." ”
Zheng Hengzhou was stunned, thinking how could he run to Yingyan Tower, the famous land of fireworks, and was confused for a moment, remembering the three words "Shuntianfu", he was taken aback and asked, "How did you come to Shuntianfu?" How long have I been in a coma? ”
"Three months."
"Huh?" Zheng Hengzhou was afraid that he had heard it wrong, so he asked again: "How long?" ”
"Three months." Mao Du believed. "The Wuchang Mansion Heroes Conference was three months ago."
Zheng Hengzhou opened his mouth and stammered, not knowing what to do. After a long while, he asked, "How so?" ”
"You were hit by Wei Zhongxian's two Peiyuan palms, and you were already lacking in skills. It took a lot of effort to bring you back to life. Mao Duxin went to pour another cup of tea, held it to Zheng Hengzhou, and asked, "Senior brother, how much do you remember about that night?" ”
Zheng Hengzhou recalled. "I remember letting Wei Zhongxian take him down in the woods, and I heard it...... Hearing the scenes of ......" that day, he suddenly felt numb on his scalp, and asked in a trembling voice, "...... master and second junior brother?" ”
Mao Duxin bowed his head and said: "I rushed back the next day, and Gufanzhuang had already set fire to the East Factory. After several inquiries, no one in the rivers and lakes heard about Master's whereabouts. I think...... Master and Second Senior Brother, most of them have already ......"
The brothers and sisters were relatively silent. When Zheng Hengzhou first heard the bad news, he was sad and couldn't suppress it, and finally cried. Mao Duxin has mourned for a long time, held back his sadness, and comforted his elder brother. After crying for a while, Zheng Hengzhou picked up the quilt to wipe his tears and asked, "Has the beggar gang Fan escaped the clutches of Dongchang?" ”
"Gang Leader Fan led the crowd to break through that day, and later connected with us in Fengyang Mansion. He attached great importance to his senior brother, and he passed a lot of true qi that day to renew his life. If it weren't for him, Senior Brother would not be able to make it here. Mao Du believed. The heads of the four major factions also successfully broke through that day, but most of the participating gangs suffered heavy casualties. A martial arts conference in Wuchang Mansion has lost half of the gangs on the rivers and lakes. ”
Zheng Hengzhou was indignant: "There were four or five hundred people attending the meeting, but no one came back to inform us?" ”
Mao Duxin shook his head: "Wei Zhongxian is well arranged, and he waits until the people in the martial arts leave the ambush site before attacking from the rear. ”
"What about the abbot of Myoku and Tianhengzi?"
"They killed Cao Wenxin, escaped from the tunnel, and finally died under the muskets of the Shenji Battalion."
Zheng Hengzhou closed his eyes, felt sorry in his heart, and lamented: "At least they killed Cao Wenxin." ”
"yes."
The two were silent for a moment again. Zheng Hengzhou took a sip of tea, stared at the teacup, and asked, "What happened that day?" ”
"That day, the two of us were knocked down by Wei Zhongxian, and Wei Zhongxian was about to step forward to take your life, when suddenly a girl jumped down from the tree and shouted, "Brother Zheng!" "Fall on the elder brother......"
Zheng Hengzhou said "ah" and said, "It turns out ...... Is it really a guest girl? The young woman who will call him "Brother Zheng" has no second person except Ke Wanqing. Before he fainted that day, he vaguely heard Ke Wanqing's voice, but he was confused and misheard. At this time, I knew that there was really something, and my heart suddenly had mixed feelings. He thought, "Why did the guest girl save me?" Did she feel sorry for me and stay by my side all the time? Wei Zhongxian said that she didn't hand over the Dragon Descending God Palm Atlas, could it be that she had a clear conscience? Or does the lobbyist girl ...... me? ”
Mao Duxin said: "It turns out that the girl's surname is Ke? Wei Zhongxian called her Wanzhen. ”
When Zheng Hengzhou heard the word "Wanzhen", he remembered that this female poisonous scorpion had a heart and mixed into the beggar gang. He opened his mouth to scold her, but when the words came to his mouth, what he said was: "You said that she pounced on me, but Wei Zhongxian was injured?" ”
"Wei Zhongxian's internal and external skills have been perfected, and his skills are free to be retracted, so he shouldn't have injured the guest girl. I think he must have been injured at the hands of the master and the second senior brother, so his skills were not pure, and he couldn't recruit him, and beat the guest girl to vomit blood. Mao Du believed. At that time, Wei Zhongxian was at a loss, and he looked really anxious, and said bluntly: Wanzhen...... Wanzhen ...... What are you doing here? ”
The guest girl said with tears in her eyes: Father-in-law, my daughter is not filial, please let Brother Zheng go. Wei Zhongxian saw that the corners of her mouth were oozing blood, so he was so anxious that he knelt beside the two of you and said, "Wanzhen, get up quickly, my father-in-law will help you heal your injuries." The guest girl hugged the senior brother and refused to get up, but said: Father-in-law, please let Brother Zheng go. ”
