Chapter 3 The Ancient Temple Trusts the Orphan
12
But it was said that Fang Laosan swung his knife and slashed at Chen Du, who knows, only to hear a loud sound, and the big knife fell to the ground.
The third man shook twice and fell headlong.
It turned out that Long Zixi had been eavesdropping for a long time, and he couldn't hold it back.
Seeing Fang Laosan swinging his knife towards Chen Du, with a wave of his right hand, a bone dart hit Fang Laosan, and then jumped out.
Before Lord Du and the other three could react, they saw a small figure floating in front of them.
"Bang bang" a few times, and all of them have been hit by the point.
Several people froze there with shocked faces.
This is the first time that Long Zixi has shot since his debut.
Seeing that Chen Du was in danger, he made a quick move and hit the enemy's key points.
It was also those five people who never expected that there was such a master lurking in the house, and they were unguarded, and they were hit by Long Zixi.
Chen Du opened his eyes, looked at Long Zixi again and again, and shouted:
"You, you're Zixi Xian's nephew!?"
When the four of them heard the word "Zixi", they looked puzzled, stared blankly at the little boy in front of them, and were speechless.
Long Zixi had already gone over to untie the acupoint for Chen Du, knelt on one knee, and held his uncle, a few heroic tears rolled down his cheeks, but he was also speechless for a while.
I didn't see it clearly when the light was insufficient just now, but when I was so close at this time, I saw that Chen Du's face was pale, his lips were purple, and he was obviously poisoned.
That Chen Du trembled his hands, held Long Zixi's arms, and looked at this nephew who he hadn't seen for many years.
After a long time, he said in a loud voice:
"Good, good! You are really Zixi Xian's nephew, and you want to kill your uncle! ”
Long Zixi wiped away his tears and said softly:
"Uncle Shi, no, now I should call you uncle.
When the nephew heard the news during the day, he guessed that the incident was related to his uncle and aunt, but it turned out that it was true.
"Uncle suffered!"
Chen Du shook his head again and again, his face full of guilt:
"It's your uncle's incompetence that has affected your aunt, not for our hard-working child, who has already gone with her!
"However, when I saw my nephew, my uncle was relieved!"
Long Zixi muttered and asked:
"Auntie, she, is she really dead?"
Chen Du nodded:
"Yes, it was my uncle who killed her!"
Long Zixi's heart ached, and tears flowed down again.
Chen Du's eyes were also red, and he shook his head. Suddenly asked:
"How did the virtuous nephew get here? What is your father doing now? ”
Longzi West Road:
"His old man is in good health, but he has withdrawn from the rivers and lakes and gone to the mountains to live in seclusion.
"He's been thinking about his uncle!
He asked his nephew to come to Hojing, originally wanting to ask his uncle to help his nephew find a background.
"He didn't let his nephew accompany him in the mountains, he said, his nephew is older, he should have his own affairs."
Chen Du nodded again and again:
"Well, he's alive!
"Yes, the virtuous nephew is older, and he should have his own affairs, but unfortunately, my uncle can't help anymore!
"However, I heard that the virtuous nephew followed your father to learn divine skills, and my uncle can rest assured!"
Long Zixi wiped away his tears, and before he could answer, he suddenly heard Master Du sneering behind him:
"I didn't expect that the one who secretly attacked was the son of the Flying Tiger Hero!
"We are frustrated today, and it seems that we can't be convinced!"
That being said, the tone was clearly sarcastic.
Long Zixi slowly turned around and said loudly:
"Yes, Xiao Ke is the son of the Flying Tiger Hero!
"My father has repeatedly warned Xiao Ke to be upright, and Xiao Ke is also determined to be a good man.
However, Lord Du and the Fang brothers are also well-known figures in the rivers and lakes, not only poisoning, but also bullying more and less, and still suddenly attacking a seriously injured person.
"Compared with a few, Xiao Ke is just treating himself in the way of others."
When Long Zixi said this, he didn't find excuses.
Although he is young, he has already been educated by his father for many years, and his heart is open, and he is unwilling to do that sneaky thing easily.
In today's urgency, a sudden sneak attack is helpless.
Nadu Daren:
"Shaoxia is right.
"Although this official is not a person in the rivers and lakes, don't you know that you should be above board?
"This time it was really a last resort to treat Brother Chen like this.
"That day in the palace, dozens of guards approached Brother Chen, and Qiu Shan, the head of the imperial guard, also borrowed the strength of everyone to win a move and a half.
"It's fair to win, I'm really not sure, and it goes without saying.
"It is planted in the hands of Shaoxia today, but by disposal.
"However, Ming people don't do dark things, and the poison that Brother Chen suffered was done by Qiu Shan, and his ghost head knife has always been highly poisonous.
"A few of us want to poison us, but we don't have the qualifications."
Long Zixi heard his father talk about the ghost head knife Qiu is good at people, strong in martial arts, the most righteous, and the first master in front of the emperor.
Although he was only a chief of guard, he was more respected than ordinary officials.
What's more, for the sake of his own safety, King Xuan specially allowed one of his knives to be fed poison to increase the lethality of the assassins, and the other guards never did this.
In this way, it is reasonable for Chen Du to be injured.
Fortunately, Chen Du's internal strength is profound, and in the past few days, he has controlled his pulse with superb internal strength, delayed the onset of toxicity, and replaced a person with slightly worse internal strength, and he would have died a long time ago.
Long Zixi turned around and glanced at Chen Du.
Chen Du nodded, proving that what Master Du said was true.
Long Zixi found that the corners of Chen Du's mouth were already covered with blood, thinking that under the excitement, he relaxed his pranayama and caused a poisonous gas to attack his heart.
Long Zixi took out a pill from his arms and fed it to his uncle, and helped him sit by the wall. Whispered:
"Uncle will rest for a while, and when my nephew finishes the matter of these five people, I will take care of my uncle again."
When the four of them heard the word "ended", they couldn't help but be silent.
They all closed their eyes tightly and waited for death.
13
Long Zixi once again swept in front of the four of them.
There were a few more "pops", and the four of them opened their eyes at the same time, only to find that the acupuncture points had been opened, and they couldn't help but be surprised.
The three brothers of the Fang family were stunned, rushed to Fang Laosan's side, and shouted:
"Brother!"
Long Zixi said softly:
"He's fine, just unlock the acupuncture for him."
Master Du got up and nodded two fingers on Fang Laosan.
The third child really woke up, got up with a bone, and tried to get lucky, but there was no problem.
Only then did the three brothers notice that the dart was only embedded in the surface of a key point, and the force was just right, like a point, and there was only a little skin wound where it was pointed.
Clearly, the person who fired the dart did not intend to take his life.
The three brothers couldn't help but be grateful to Long Zixi, and even more admired such a clever dart throwing technique.
Fang Laosan hugged his fist at Long Zixi:
"Thank you for the mercy of the young man!"
Longzi West Road:
"You're welcome.
"Xiao Ke admires that you are all heroes, just now in order to save my uncle's life, I had to make a sudden sneak attack.
"Now let's have a fair competition.
"If the five win, Xiao Ke and his uncle will listen to the order.
"If Xiao Ke wins, please allow Xiao Ke to take his uncle away.
"What do you think?"
Du Daren:
"The young man is really righteous!
"Originally, the victory and defeat were divided just now, and we waited for it to be convinced, and there were no complaints.
"Since the young man has given him a chance, even if I die in battle, I will not lose my duty.
"Shaoxia's conditions are very fair, how dare I not comply?"
After speaking, the six of them stared at each other.
Between the flickering firelight, they have suddenly fought together.
It was a sneak attack against the five people just now, and this is the first real battle after Longzi Xiyicheng went down the mountain.
Long Zi Xishi didn't know what his skills were, so he had the idea of trying his skills.
As soon as they fought, Long Zixi knew that Master Du was the strongest, and the four brothers of the Fang family were also first-class players.
Don't dare to slack off at the moment, show what you have learned in your life, walk between the five people with a pair of meat palms, and respond calmly.
In fact, the strength of these five people is no longer under Long Zixi, who has not used the blade.
But the four brothers of the Fang family were convinced that Long Zixi was a person, and seeing that he had not hurt the third child's life just now, they all couldn't bear it, so they naturally didn't go all out when they made a move.
Nadu-sama also has admiration for the Flying Tiger Hero.
After the accident just now, I feel that this young man's character and martial arts are really rare, and he also has the meaning of not being able to bear to hurt, so he has room to make a move.
Long Zixi hated five people at the beginning of the year.
But later it was discovered that these five people did not seem to be treacherous, and they were also open-minded, and they were respectful to their uncle just now.
So when I sent a dart to save him, I didn't want to use a heavy hand.
At this time, although he dealt with it seriously, he wanted to use his martial arts to convince the five people and let them retreat in the face of difficulties, but it was not a fatal move.
The six of them have fought more than 100 times in the blink of an eye, and they can be tied.
By this time, the sky was already faintly bright.
In the middle of the fight, there was a sudden sound of trumpets in the distance.
The voice was low and powerful, deep and long, and it touched the heart in the early hours of the morning.
Master Du suddenly jumped out of the circle and shouted:
"Stay!"
The other five stopped together, and they all turned their eyes to Master Du.
But when I saw Master Du walking to the window and listening carefully to the sound of the horn, his face changed.
14
Let's say that Master Du listened to the sound of the horn, his face changed slightly, and he looked back and said:
"It's the horse team of Lord Qiu Shanqiu!"
Long Zixi was still unsettled, but Chen Du looked worried, and said to Long Zixi anxiously:
"Nephew, go! Once Qiu Shan's horse team arrives, it will be difficult to get out! ”
Long Zixi thought to himself that the horse team must be extremely powerful.
However, how could he leave his uncle and run for his life alone?
Present said:
"Uncle don't worry, even if there are thousands of troops, the little nephew will definitely save my uncle and go with him!"
As he spoke, he slowly drew his long sword and looked at the five people coldly.
This time, it is obviously a determination to kill the killer and solve it quickly.
Long Zixi's sword is wide and long, which was passed down to him by his father and is said to have been passed down for several generations.
But I don't know what kind of metal it is made of, although it is not very sharp, but it is extremely tough.
Lord Nadu looked at the wide long sword in Long Zixi's hand, and smiled sadly at Long Zixi:
"Shaoxia showed his blade, and we are naturally not opponents.
"But if you want to take the lives of five of me, it's hard to do it without one or two hundred moves.
"As long as the third child's letter smoke is fired, it won't take long for the horse team to arrive.
"It seems that today is the end of the same fate."
Long Zixi's gaze swept to Fang Laosan.
He found that he already had an extra bunch of artemisia in his left hand, which was stretched out next to the torch, ready to be lit at any time.
Long Zixi was stunned for a while, not knowing whether to make a move, but heard Chen Du say:
"Virtuous nephew, there are five more, please listen to the next word."
The six of them turned their gazes.
I saw Chen Du struggling to stand up and stand against the wall. To Du Daren:
"Lord Du, a few of them are nothing more than the first level to be lowered, yes or no?"
Master Du nodded slightly, but shook his head and sighed lightly.
Chen Du continued:
"Good! If a few people promise not to be embarrassed by this nephew again, what is the difficulty of being at the next level?
"In my second thought, you don't want to lose both."
Lord Du and the four brothers of the Fang family glanced at each other and nodded again.
Du Daren:
"We were just ordered to take you, and this matter has nothing to do with Shaoxia.
"Shaoxia doesn't embarrass us, why should we wait for ourselves?"
Another interjection:
"There's something else you two don't know.
When King Xuan heard that he had just thrown the child into the river and had not been executed, he was very angry and ordered Lord Du to track him down.
But after Lord Du didn't want to harm Zhongliang, he didn't do his best.
"The humble courage to say the last sentence, the world is so big, to find that child is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack.
"I'll take my time to investigate."
The implication is very obvious, and it is clear that he will not seriously look for it.
Chen Du nodded and said:
"So much for the best. I believe that you are true to your word! ”
Turned to Longzi West Road:
"The virtuous nephew and hero are like this, so what does the uncle worry about?
"There is just one thing that reassures my uncle.
"I hope that the virtuous nephew will track down the whereabouts of my child no matter what, if Meng Tianfeng is still in the world, he must find her and raise her as an adult, please!"
Yan Bi glanced at Long Zixi affectionately.
But suddenly a mouthful of black blood spurted out, and he almost fell.
Long Zixi wanted to go over to help him, but he was afraid that the five people would suddenly attack, so he had to shout:
"Uncle, nephew promises you! Don't worry, uncle, nephew will be able to rescue you! ”
Chen Du looked at Long Zixi gratefully, but shook his head again and again:
"My uncle has been poisoned into his heart and lungs, and he will only live for two or three days, so what does it make if he dies early or late?
"Remember, there was an ivory bracelet in my uncle's baggage, which was originally a pair, one with my uncle and the other with your aunt.
"Before the child was taken away, your aunt risked her life to stuff her in swaddling clothes, this is the proof of recognition in the future, remember!"
Long Zixi held back his tears and nodded vigorously.
Chen Du took a slow breath, waved his hand, and said:
"Remember not to try to avenge your uncle.
"My uncle, as a minister, did this disloyal and unrighteous thing, and today there is such a result, so I have nothing to say.
"Although the life of my uncle and your aunt is miserable, my uncle is very satisfied to be able to have a true love with her.
"If there is no grudge in my heart, how can I repay it?!"
Long Zixi's heart ached, but he didn't know what to say.
Chen Du coughed twice, and then said:
"My uncle doesn't have any savings in his life, so I will give my uncle's belt to my nephew as a souvenir, and in the future, when I see my uncle, I must keep it well!"
As he spoke, he slowly untied his belt and threw it to Long Zixi.
Long Zixi took the belt and wrapped it around his waist, his heart was already like a knife.
After Chen Du finished saying this, he suddenly smiled happily:
"Uncle should also go to your aunt, we can't be adult husband and wife, so let's be a ghost couple."
After speaking, his right hand suddenly reached into his arms, and there was already a sharp blade in his hand.
Long Zixi shouted, "Don't!" Then he jumped over, but where was the time?
But seeing Chen Du's right hand wave, the sharp blade had already cut his throat.
Long Zixi held his uncle's body.
Seeing that Chen Du was smiling, his eyes gradually scattered.
I couldn't help but feel like a knife, and my expression was in a trance, completely forgetting that the five people were still holding swords and surrounding them.
