Chapter 121: Sword Technique News
Seeing the Beihu soldiers and horses chasing after him, Gu Shengchao did not advance but retreated, and deliberately fell behind and said in a loud voice: "You guys go quickly, I'll break the back." ”
He stepped forward, followed by several more men following the mission.
At the critical moment, regardless of politeness, the rest of the mission galloped desperately.
Gradually, the Beihu officers and soldiers in the back got closer and closer, and the first one could see that it was the ancient saint who was thinking about it but had no chance to meet Xian Yutie.
Xian Yu Tie was covered with armor, and his heroic posture was reflected in the sunlight, and the kind of power unique to men was unobstructed at a glance.
He led all the people in the heavy cavalry, and once they caught up, he could trample his opponent into meat sauce without using his horses.
The distance is close, and Xian Yu Iron bends the bow and shoots an arrow.
"Whoosh!"
The sound of feather arrows breaking through the air came, which made people tremble when they heard it.
The force of the sharp arrow was just right, and when it flew to Gu Shengchao's side, the speed was just in sync with him, and he didn't have to stretch out his hand to grab the shaft of the arrow.
It's as easy and natural as two people passing it face to face.
With this hand alone, the archery technique that is less than iron is amazing.
Gu Shengchao held the arrow shaft a little strangely, the arrow shaft was wrapped in a note, he unfolded it in his hand, and two words were written crookedly on it:
"Run."
The pen is exactly the same as the one someone stuffed into him a few days ago.
It's right in front of you, and you'll run without urging.
Gu Shengchao suddenly had an epiphany, Xian Yutie was protecting himself, as long as they didn't stop, maybe they would never be able to catch up.
Thinking of this, Gu Shengchao shouted in front of him: "Don't stop, just keep running towards the realm of our Dawu Dynasty." ”
Dong E also shouted loudly when she heard this: "Come on, hold on a little longer, there will be more than an hour to leave Beihu." ”
Everyone was already sleepy, but when they saw that hope was in front of them, they hurried away without their lives.
The pursuers gradually fell, and Xian Yutie complained: "Whose bad idea is this, we have to reload the iron cavalry to chase, and now the horses are too tired to carry us, how can we catch up." ”
He looked at the embarrassed appearance of the envoy in front of him, and ordered: "The light cavalry obeys the order, and your soldiers will outflank them from both flanks in two ways, and strive to encircle them in front." ”
The order was passed down, and the two groups of light cavalry broke away from the group and galloped on both sides.
Gu Shengchao was a little worried at first, but he was relieved to see them chasing after him.
Where they are in a situation of encirclement, it is similar to escaping, and they are getting farther and farther away from Gu Shengchao, and the distance is getting wider and wider.
Gu Shengchao was grateful, thanking Xian Yutie for his efforts to cover their escape.
He began to worry about Xian Yu Tie again, such a blatant fraud, and he didn't know if he would be punished when he went back.
When it comes to the end, there is no room for too much consideration, only to get through this catastrophe first.
In front is a low mountain beam.
Dong E was ecstatic: "Everyone work hard, after the mountain beam, it will be the Dawu Dynasty." ”
The crowd was as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, scrambling to rush up.
One of the men was exhausted, fell off his horse, and was almost stepped on by the horse behind him.
Gu Shengchao's horse came close and leaned down to lift the man, his crotch BMW chased the wind with full physical strength, and carried the two of them without slowing down.
The mission team finally crossed the ridge, which was the provisional boundary between the two countries.
Behind them, the Beihu pursuers stood on the beam and looked at them, and no one crossed the line to chase them.
Xian Yutie shot an arrow again, this time the sharp arrow was firmly nailed to a tree and pierced deeply.
Pulling out the feather arrow vigorously, Gu Shengchao saw that it was still wrapped in a note, and it was unfolded into four equally distorted words:
"There will be a date later."
Gu Shengchao looked up, and the Beihu officers and soldiers on the mountain beam withdrew one after another, leaving only the whining north wind howling.
All the members of the mission were so tired that they dismounted and lay down on the gravel to rest, feeling extremely comfortable, and they did not feel that the stones were panicking.
"Who is this person and why is he helping us?"
Lu Shouwen was lying on the side, and asked weakly.
Gu Shengchao also lay down on the spot and said softly: "He is Xian Yutie, who is known as the first warrior of Beihu, and secretly helped us a lot in the confrontation between the capital and the old eunuch Wen Zhe. ”
Sighing, Lu Shouwen said helplessly: "It's not easy to repay the debt of favors, and what you owe today will have to be repaid in the future." ”
Looking at the clear blue sky, Gu Shengchao also sighed: "I didn't meet Brother Tie in the royal court, I thought he forgot about us, it turns out that there is a reason for it, he must be protecting us in secret, but we don't know." ”
"Yes, when I go back, I must tell the saint that I should thank the others, and the lives of all the people in our mission were saved by them." Lu Shouwen was deeply touched.
After everyone repaired for half an hour, a deputy envoy came to ask: "Lord Lu, should we go to the county government to live first, when we come, the county order will take good care of us, and we will have a good rest for a few days and return to the capital." ”
"No need."
Lu Shouwen directly refused: "The order goes down, all county towns on the way back to the capital must be detoured, and the local people must not be harassed." ”
"Honorable Order." The lieutenant was reluctant to leave.
Gu Shengchao quipped: "Second Brother Lu really doesn't understand the amorous feelings, why not drink flower wine when you get to the county seat." ”
"Yes, there is also a white flower of silver, who doesn't love it. Let's go, there are still many things to do when we return to the capital, don't delay. ”
Lu Shouwen gave the order, and the team continued to move forward.
On the way back, as Lu Shouwen said, he saw that the county seat was all detoured.
In ordinary towns and markets, everyone can buy the materials they need, and there is no need to disturb the people in the city.
In order to facilitate travel, Dong E and Wan Yanxi both bought the dresses of the usual girls and put them on.
If you go out in a Beihu robe, it is absolutely eye-catching, but it is inconvenient.
In their spare time, everyone hurried to practice, Dong E made rapid progress, and the iron arm was beginning to achieve. In addition to the armor that has not yet condensed on the surface of her skin, the muscles on her body are hard, and it is extremely difficult for ordinary swords to hurt her.
Gu Shengchao was depressed, the meridians in his body didn't know where there was a problem, his breath was always not smooth, and the Five Soul Array was never able to be used, not to mention the swordsmanship he learned after breaking through in the desert, and he couldn't use it anymore.
It was late autumn, the rain was falling, the road ahead was destroyed and impassable, and their smaller town could not accommodate a team of hundreds of people.
In desperation, I had to go into the county to find an inn to live in, and wait patiently for the road to pass normally.
Lu Shouwen sent an order to let everyone live in a scattered manner and not to show off, so as not to entertain them after the county order knew about it, which would be self-defeating for the people and money.
After a few days of rest, the sky finally cleared.
Dong E couldn't bear the loneliness, so she had to take Yan Xi to go shopping, so that she could see the prosperity of the Central Plains.
Gu Shengchao was not worried about them, so he followed behind.
Dong E finished holding Yan Xi's hand, and the sisters were happy, talking and laughing.
Suddenly, Dong E was pleasantly surprised: "Brother Gu, it's only been a few days since this Yan girl, and the skin on her hands has become smooth, not as rough as when she first came." ”
Seeing that Gu Shengchao didn't believe it, she took Yan Xi's hand and said, "If you don't believe it, if you touch it, it's a lot smoother." ”
"You say yes, yes." Gu Shengchao twisted his face to the side.
There were a lot of people on the street, but when the weather was clear, more people came out to shop.
Dong E made a fuss, and many people looked at them in surprise, making Gu Shengchao feel uncomfortable.
There are two main streets in the county, where shops and merchants are concentrated.
bought Dong E and the others rouge that girls like, and the three of them slowly walked back.
Passing by the county office, I saw many people gathered in front of the yamen, and an old lady knelt at the yamen and cried sadly: "My son is wronged, my son is wronged, he can't kill people." ”
"Get out quickly, the case couldn't be clearer, he has signed and decapitated in three days, you old lady dare to make trouble again, and I will kill you together." The servant shoved and threw the old lady into the street.
"The sky doesn't have long eyes, my child can't kill anyone, he is wronged." The old lady couldn't stand on her knees.
Seeing that there were many onlookers, the official pulled out his waist knife and threatened: "Get out of the way, what is there to see, dare to stay and serve as a fellow party." ”
The onlookers were frightened and left.
Gu Shengchao stepped forward to help the old man: "Old man, if you go back to discuss it in advance, you can't solve the problem here." ”
"You don't have to worry about me, if my son dies, I don't want to live." The old lady was determined not to leave.
Seeing that most of the people had dispersed, and the few people left couldn't make waves, they ignored Gu Shengchao and returned to the county office.
Gu Shengchao picked up the old man and said in a low voice: "I am an official from the capital, I may be able to help you." ”
"Really?" The old man didn't believe it.
Quietly showing his tooth card, Gu Shengchao comforted the old man: "You also know that there is no one here who can help you, it is better to go home first and tell us the details, maybe you can return your son's innocence." ”
The old man saw that Gu Shengchao did not look like a fake, so he led them back to his dilapidated hut.
After careful questioning, the old man told the whole process intermittently.
The old man's son is named Ah Niu, who works in a local silk and satin village, and the proprietress of the silk village died suddenly two days ago, and someone framed Ah Niu for doing it.
Ah Niu was locked up in the county government for a day, and then admitted that he coveted the beauty of the boss lady, and wanted to misbehave, and the other party did not obey, so he killed her with evil thoughts.
However, the old man understood the child's personality, insisted that someone had framed her, and the county government had closed the case and ignored the old man, so she had no choice but to go to the county office to complain, but there was no way to complain and no one paid attention to her.
Gu Shengchao asked about the location of the silk village, and immediately went to check the situation with Dong E and Wan Yanxi.
When the three of them came there, a mourning shed was set up in the courtyard, and the two children knelt in front of the coffin and wept endlessly.
Back at the inn, Gu Shengchao consulted Yan Xi and asked her if there was a better way.
"I only know that the children are really crying, which shows that the mother takes care of them every day, and I don't know anything else."
In the evening, Gu Shengchao took advantage of the night to come to the courtyard again, wanting to find out.
The night wind blew the spirit flags, and there were some terrible people, only a lonely coffin, and no one guarded it.
Sneaking into the backyard and seeing a room lit by candlelight, Gu Shengchao quietly touched it and heard a person in the house threaten:
"People can't be resurrected after death, as long as you hand over the 'Phoenix Dance and Phoenix Sword Technique', I will ensure that your career is prosperous and safe."
