Chapter 164: There were originally six of the five heroes in Angzhou
"Taoist priest."
"Huh?"
"Sanhua Niangniang has read it a hundred times, why still don't you know the meaning?"
"Really?"
"Really! Sanhua Niangniang was afraid of counting wrong, so she read it more than a hundred times! β
"I see."
"Why don't you know what it means?"
"That could be my negligence." The Taoist thought about it before remembering, "I forgot to tell Sanhua Niangniang, the hundreds, thousands, hundreds, thousands, in the ancient sayings, are generally imaginary numbers." β
"Imaginary Numbers~"
"It's a false number, a hundred is not a true hundred, and a thousand is not a true thousand."
"How much is that?"
"It means a lot."
"Refers to a lot~"
"Reading a book a hundred times means reading it many times, not really a hundred times." The Taoist patiently explained, "Some are a hundred times, some are more than a hundred times, or even ten thousand times." β
βοΌβ
"But Sanhua Niangniang doesn't have to worry. First, this is the same as spiritual practice, and you should not rush it, because if you want to read it in one day, you may not be able to read it many times. Go with the flow. The Taoist reached out and touched the head of the little girl next to him as he walked, warmly, "Second, poetry doesn't necessarily have to have an obvious meaning, sometimes just understand the artistic conception, and it's already okay." β
"I don't understand."
"Slowly, you will understand."
"Oh......"
At this moment, several Jianghu people appeared in front of them.
Several people, all dressed in coarse linen clothes, walked boredly along the mountain road, looking left and right, and from time to time one person rushed to the high place next to him, and craned his neck to look at the dense grass.
It's like a posture of searching the mountains and trying your luck.
"There's someone up ahead."
The heroine lowered her voice and reminded Song You.
"These people are familiar with each other."
"I met yesterday afternoon."
"I see."
The woman wanted to remind him not to show his timidity, to be calm, and maybe to get through the tricks, but when she glanced at the Taoist, she found that he was still calm, and even his pace and breathing were the same as usual, so how could he remind him?
The woman also wanted to discuss with him what to do for a while, if there was a conflict, how to solve the conflict in the simplest and quickest way and cleanly, but after glancing at these people, she felt that even if she was not a small miscellaneous fish on the rivers and lakes, she was not a top master.
So I walked side by side with him and looked ahead.
When Song You and his party saw these Jianghu people, these Jianghu people also saw them.
At first, I didn't think there was anything, I just felt that Song You and his party were also a little familiar, but they soon realized that something was wrong, because Song You was carrying a half-person-long wooden box wrapped in oilcloth behind him - the people in the rivers and lakes who came to this mountain were very wary of this kind of long package box.
Immediately, someone pulled the companions around him, gathered several people together, stopped, looked at each other a few times, and then looked at the group of people who came over.
A Taoist with a cane, young in appearance.
A masked woman carrying a long knife.
A little girl, petite and cute, whistles and looks at them with a pair of pure eyes.
There was also a pony that was not much bigger than a donkey.
The group was getting closer and closer to them.
Several Jianghu people stood in place, turning their heads almost as they approached, some kept looking at them, and some stared at the package behind the Taoist, and the division of labor was very clear.
Wu Nuxia could be very keenly aware that among these people, although no one had put their hands on the hilt of the knife, all of them were already tense and ready to attack.
"A few ......"
No one wants to fight for their lives as soon as they don't know the details, so an older Jianghu man walked out, showing a smile on his face, and asked: "I only went up the mountain yesterday, and I went down the mountain?" β
"yes." The Taoist also saluted, "I didn't find a miracle doctor." β
"I met twice, and it was also fate, I haven't reported my home, and I haven't asked a few honorable names, so I'm not right." The Jianghu people said, and arched their hands to them, "The surname is Zhu Mingkui, these are the four righteous brothers below, and the Jianghu people promoted us and gave us the nickname Angzhou Five Heroes." β
After speaking, there were also two people behind him who signed their names.
There are also two people who seem to have a cold personality, or they generally know what will happen next, and they don't want to do this, so they just look at Song You and his party and don't speak.
"Under the surname Song Mingyou, not a Jianghu person, is a Taoist, originally practiced in Yinyang Mountain, Lingquan County, Yizhou, and traveled here with children, I heard that there is a miracle doctor in Changjing, and I came to visit to increase my knowledge."
"It turned out to be Mr. Song, I'm glad to meet it."
"I'm glad I will."
"Behind the gentleman is ......"
Zhu Kui looked at the woman holding the knife behind Song You.
I noticed it yesterday, and I'm afraid this one is not easy to mess with.
"What Wu does, there is no door and no faction."
"A woman is not like a doorless person."
"If you don't want to say, don't ask."
"Okay, okay, don't ask, don't ask." Zhu Kui waved his hand again and again, as if he was very talkative, and then his eyes narrowed and he looked behind the Taoist, "But what is the back of the gentleman?" When I went up the mountain yesterday, I didn't see a few people with such a thing. β
"Something entrusted by a friend."
"It turned out to be entrusted by a friend." Zhu Kui grinned, full of big yellow teeth, "Since it is entrusted by a friend, and it is wrapped so tightly, it is reasonable, we should not have investigated...... It's just that Mr. also knows that I am waiting on the mountain to search for a treasure, the treasure is precious, more expensive than life, I wonder if Mr. can open it for me to wait and see? β
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately followed the next sentence:
"It's not Mr. Embarrassed, after reading it, it's not the object we are looking for, no matter what it is, no matter how high the value is, we just don't see it, and immediately make amends and leave!"
"It's exactly what you're looking for."
The Taoist raised his hand to salute him and told him sincerely.
βοΌοΌβ
It was such a sincere sentence, and even the tone was as gentle as ever, but the meaning was so straightforward, a group of people in the rivers and lakes instantly became nervous, staring at the saluting Taoist, and reaching out to touch the knife.
Someone has just stretched out his hand, someone has already touched the hilt, someone has pulled out the knife half an inch, but that's all.
Everyone's body movements came to an abrupt halt.
The picture seems to freeze frame.
All five of them were frozen in place.
Even everyone's expressions remained the same, either surprised, angry, or fierce, and their eyes looked at different places, all fixed here, and it was quite interesting to look at them closely.
Wu Nuxia was shocked when she saw this: "Root Determination Method? β
"Yes, yes."
"Awesome, Dao Chief."
It's still the same sentence, and with her relaxed tone, it doesn't sound like a compliment or compliment at all, just like a mantra.
"Woo woo woo~"
The little girl blew her whistle and walked up to one of them and stared up.
At this moment, there was another sound of breaking the air.
"Poof!"
An arrow flew from afar, slicing through the sky.
Ten zhang away, it is coming in an instant.
"Whew!"
The woman drew her sword and slashed for a moment.
said that it was too late and that it was fast, and in the time when ordinary people couldn't react far away, Xueliang's blade had already arrived in front of Song You. With a snap, the arrow had been pinpointedly stopped by the long knife.
"Thank you, Woman."
Song You smiled and saluted her.
Wu Nuxia didn't care about him, her figure flashed with a knife, and she chased after him in the direction where the arrow was flying.
Song You's smile became more and more intense.
Although the martial artists of this world do not have the ability to volley the void and split the mountains and rivers with a sword, the cultivators are not omnipotent, and most of them just learn some Xuanmen methods. Speaking of which, nine out of ten cultivators in this world may not be able to win the battle of the Jianghu warriors.
The methods of cultivating the people in the Xuanmen are naturally subtle, making the martial artists unable to defend themselves, but it is difficult for them themselves to resist the swords of the martial artists.
Even if there is a Taoist who can open the altar to pray for wind and rain, a Taoist who can reach out to summon thunder, and a Taoist who can easily subdue the ghosts, as long as he does not practice the skills of invulnerability, there is no other means of saving his life, he was cut off by a knife, and he was shot through the body by an arrow, he should die or die.
In a hundred years of life, the Tao is difficult to learn, and few people can do it all.
Therefore, this woman is relaxed on the surface, but in fact, she has been vigilant, that is, she is guarding against a sneak attack, afraid that she will be shot to death by someone with a secret arrow.
Song You is not the ninety-nine, and he should thank her.
A moment laterβ
With a burst of begging for mercy, Wu Nuxia dragged a strong man with arms thicker than his legs back, and threw the strong man at his feet, and then replied:
"You're welcome."
Song You looked at the strong man on the ground and asked with a smile: "My foot is also one of the five heroes of Angzhou?" β
"Yes...... It's ......"
"It turns out that there are six of the five heroes in Angzhou." Song You nodded and said, "A few people have clever thoughts. β
"Dao Ye spares his life!"
"The arrow under the foot is coming straight to the door of the heart below, how can you forgive the foot below?"
"Dao Ye spares his life! Ah yes! The villain's legs! Meow's legs! It's all to blame for the villain's poor archery! The strong man said and kowtowed, "Dao Ye spares his life, Dao Ye spares his life......"
"Wonderful."
"What the villain said is true! Dao Ye spares his life! β
"I don't like to kill people in the next, just ask the next sentence, and the answer is right, and I will bypass the foot in the next." Song You said, "If you answer wrong, you will return one for one, please return to heaven and earth." β
"Dao Ye spares his life!"
"Just get it right."
ββ¦β¦β
"Have you ever killed someone?" Song You paused and added, "Innocent people." β
The strong man was shocked, but he hurriedly kowtowed more diligently, and replied: "Dao Ye Mingjian, the villain will do some things at most to steal chickens and dogs and embarrass people, where have you ever killed innocent people...... However, there was a time when we encountered mountain bandits on the side of the road and refused to let us go, so we fought hard and killed a few, but if we didn't kill them, we would have died. β
"Is there a lie at the foot?"
"It's true! It's true! β
"Look up."
ββ¦β¦β
The strong man raised his head in a panic and looked at the Taoist.
As soon as they looked at each other, they were shocked.
His gaze was as calm as water, and as vast as the sea.
"Have you ever killed an innocent person?"
The Taoist asked again, and his voice was still the same.
The strong man's heart seemed to have an extra sea, and the wind and waves were calm at first, but soon there were waves. The small ones are waves, the big ones are waves, the big and small are thousands of weights, and every time they make a splash, they are big or small and the question of the Taoist makes him stunned and can't lie.
"Killed ......"
"How much?"
"Two ...... Three ......"
"Canopy ......"
A burst of fire swept through him from the inside out.
"Ah......h
The screams rang out.
The girl was very close to him, and felt strange, obviously there was a fire but she didn't feel hot, so she couldn't help but carefully reach out and touch it, but she couldn't touch anything, and when she wanted to see it again, she was blindfolded by the Taoist who pulled her to her side.
But the fire was real, burning the strong man to the ground and rolling in pain.
