Xia Wuxiao said: "Senior brother based on this alone, I guess that Wei Xiangguo is our senior brother?" ”

Yao Guangdao shook his head and said: "Zhang Xinqi, although he was born in the Wei Kingdom, he only knows his place of origin, and he does not know his parents' teaching, and his origin is extremely mysterious. Especially when he came out, he was an official in another country and was named Wu Xinjun. Then he returned to Wei and was worshiped by the King of Wei as Xiangguo. Everyone in the world said that he was unparalleled in his eloquence and had the wisdom of the world. I can't think of anyone else in the world who can teach such a character except Shizun. ”

Xia Wushen sighed: "The master's ability is beyond our ability. This sound can learn 12 out of 10, which is already rare. ”

The two talked for a while, and then concentrated on hurrying. After traveling like this for more than two months, he arrived at the border city of Chu in less than a day.

Yao Guangdao said: "Little junior brother, after the Daliang City in front, it is the border of the Wei State. Our journey is very smooth, but my brother is tired from the journey, so why don't we rest here for two days and then go on the road? ”

Although Xia Wushen cultivated a lot better than him, he was also a little tired at this time when he was in a hurry, so he immediately nodded yes.

This Great Liang was originally the capital of the Wei State, and later the rise of the Chu State, to the north, the Wei and Chu wars, the Wei army was defeated, retreated to the north of the Great Liang City, the Chu State took the opportunity to occupy the Great Liang City, and stationed troops here, becoming the border town of the Chu State.

When the two of them were about to arrive at Daliang City, they suddenly saw dozens of merchants rushing on the main road.

Xia Wushen saw that these merchants looked panicked, and hurriedly asked, "What happened ahead?" ”

Someone among the merchants shouted: "Hurry up and enter the city, hurry up and enter the city, there will be Wei troops burning and looting behind!" ”

Xia Wushen was stunned for a moment, and said, "What do you mean, how dare Wei Bing do such evil things in my Chu State?" ”

Another person said: "Daliang City is the border between the two countries, and five hundred miles to the north is the Wei State, which is often invaded by a small group of Wei troops." ”

Xia Wuxiao said: "What doesn't Chu Jun care about? ”

The man shook his head and sighed, "What's the matter?" Although this is the border of the Chu State, it was snatched from the Wei State, and there are still many aborigines who have their hearts towards the Wei State. The number of invading Wei troops was very small, but they moved quickly, and with the protection of the people, they could not find anyone at all. Then he went into the city with the people.

Yao Guangdao sighed: "Alas, the heroes competed, the soldiers were in chaos, and the people's livelihood eventually withered. ”

Xia Wushen said: "Senior brother, you follow them into the city, and I will go and kill that group of Wei soldiers and go back." ”

Yao Guangdao shook his head and said: "The situation has changed now, there are Wei soldiers outside the city of Daliang, and the city gate will definitely be closed to resist the enemy." If we rush into the city, I am afraid that we will not be able to get out in the next few days, and we will miss the trip in vain. ”

Xia Wushen nodded and said, "In this case, Senior Brother will follow behind me and avoid danger in time." ”

The two of them immediately rode up to meet them. After traveling for dozens of miles, I heard screams and exclamations in front of me.

Xia Wushen took the lead, and after only a few miles, he saw more than 20 Wei troops surrounding thirty or forty merchants and plundering. The ground was dripping with blood, and the stumps and bodies were scattered everywhere.

Xia Wushen was furious in his heart, jumped up from the horse, and before he landed, his feet had already kicked the two Wei soldiers in the chest, and then one turned over, and with a bang of his fists, he knocked the two Wei soldiers into the air.

It's just the moment the rabbit rises and falls, and four Wei soldiers have been killed in a row, and Xia Wushen landed majestically.

Seeing this, the rest of the Wei army did not retreat but advanced, shouted loudly, raised their spears, and surrounded them.

Xia Wushen's eyes were cold, swept by, Yi Ran was not afraid, stretched out his hand to summon the Divine Sword, made a sword trick, and the sword went towards the Wei army.

When the first few Wei soldiers saw this, they were shocked and hurriedly retreated, but they didn't know that the Wei army had rushed over behind, and under the collision, they fell towards the Zhu Shen Sword.

These Wei soldiers saw a flash of light in front of them, their necks were cool, and before they could scream, they fell to their knees and died on the spot.

The rest of the Wei army saw that Xia Wushen was strong in martial arts and so brave, so he was timid and scattered.

Seeing this, Xia Wushen was about to intercept him, but Yao Guangdao rode his horse to catch up and said, "Little junior brother, don't chase after you, let's hurry." ”

Xia Wushen frowned and said, "Senior brother, it's just a few armors, and it will only take a moment to kill them, so it won't take much time." ”

Yao Guangdao shook his head and said: "There are so many Wei troops, killing one and ten more, can you finish killing them?" The scourge of armor is nothing but the scourge of scabies. The trouble of our human race lies in the division of the princes and the perennial wars, which makes the people unable to live in peace. ”

Xia Wushen listened, sighed, and then turned over and got on the horse.

At this time, the merchants who had just been trapped rushed over one after another, and they were rescued by Xia Wushen. Many of their relatives were killed, and they also wept bitterly while kneeling on the spot.

Xia Wushen said softly: "Senior brother, I can't help this scene, let's leave quickly." But he did not speak to the merchants, but rode north.

Because Xia Wushen killed the Wei army, and many Wei troops escaped, the two were afraid that the Wei army would be arrested, so they abandoned the town, and there were only mountain and wild paths.

After another half a month, it was only four or five days away from Jinling City, the capital of Wei, and the rations carried by the two had been eaten.

Yao Guangdao saw that it was getting late, and said, "Senior brother, do you still have cloth coins?" Let's go find a town tomorrow and buy food to eat. ”

Xia Wushen nodded and said, "There are still some that can only buy rations for two or three days." However, there are a lot of scattered silver taels, and you can also exchange them for some cloth coins. ”

This cloth coin is one of the four currencies commonly used by the human race today, and the other three are cloth coins, knife coins, ring coins and ant nose coins.

Cloth coins are mainly circulated in Han, Wei, Yan and other countries, while Chu implements ant-nose money. However, regardless of the currency, it can be exchanged for silver. It's just that silver is scarce, and it circulates only among the nobles and nobles, and the common people see it less.

As the two were talking, they saw white smoke rising in the distance in a wood, and they were overjoyed and hurriedly urged their horses away.

When I got closer, I saw a man in ragged clothes with a long sword adding firewood to a steaming pot of boiling soup.

When the man heard the sound of horses' hooves, he turned around, and when he saw Xia Wushen and the others, he was shocked, jumped up, drew his long sword, and shouted, "Who are you?" ”

Xia Wushen listened to what this man said Although it was the official dialect of the Wei State, but it was mixed with a bit of Chu State accent, he couldn't help but be stunned, and when he looked closely, he was a little familiar, and he said: "It's thunder in front...... Big Brother Lei Batian? ”

The man was also stunned, looked Xia Wushen up and down, and after a while, he suddenly put away his long sword and laughed: "Haha, it's really a place where you don't meet in life!" Brother Ninety-four, I'm Lei Batian! Do you remember the mountain stream below the Ethereal Peak? ”

When Xia Wushen heard this, he turned over and dismounted, pounced, grabbed the man tightly, and said, "Brother Lei, I have been thinking about my little brother in the past few years." ”

The man said: "After we separated at the foot of the Ethereal Peak that year, I only said that we will never see each other again, and I don't want to meet unexpectedly in Wei today, which is really joyful and I don't know how to live." ”

This man turned out to be the reckless man Lei Batian whom Xia Wushen met at the Ethereal Peak.

Because he stole the martial arts secrets of the Nine Heavens Ethereal Building, he was afraid of being pursued, so he went to South Korea, and by chance, he became the captain of the guard of Han Yan, the second son of South Korea.

At this moment, he was here because South Korea was destroyed by the Protoss, he protected Han Yan from Jian'an City, and in order to repay Han Yan's kindness, he dragged the enemy with his life, and finally fell to the ground wounded, hid under the horse corpse, and finally picked up a life.

Seeing the enemy army leaving, Lei Batian stood up, looked around at a loss for a while, and couldn't help but be disheartened when he saw that such a big country as Korea was destroyed like this, and immediately thought about returning to Chu State, living in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and living the rest of his life.

Along the way, although it was only a few days, it was like a world away, and the mood was very low.

He did not go to the towns, but only the mountain paths, and when he was thirsty, he picked wild fruits and pounded, and when he was hungry, he caught wild beasts for food.

Today, when he was half dead and hungry, he caught a pheasant in the forest and stewed it. How do you know that Xia Wushen also hurried here, saw the cooking smoke, and looked for it.

When the two met, they talked about their own feelings. When Lei Batian said it, they were all embarrassed.

Xia Wushen pointed at Yao Guangdao and said, "Brother Lei, this is my senior brother, surnamed Yao Guangdao." ”

Lei Batian bowed down and said, "Since I am the senior brother of the Ninety-Four Brothers, then I will not be outside." Senior brother is above, please accept Lei Batian's worship. ”

Yao Guangdao saw that he was majestic and his bearing was quite extraordinary, so he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, hurriedly jumped off the horse, held his arm, and said, "Brother Lei is polite." ”

The three of them sat down around the hot pot as they spoke.

Xia Wushen smiled and said, "Brother Lei, do you still remember the old immortal I told you about, and now I also worship him as a teacher!" ”

When Lei Batian heard this, he was also overjoyed, and said: "Brother Ninety-four, I advised you not to miss the old immortal that day, but I don't want you to be a person with immortal fate, and you really worshipped the old immortal as a teacher. ”

Yao Guangdao said in a trembling voice: "Thunder ...... Brother Lei, you just said that South Korea has been destroyed, can you take it seriously? ”

Lei Batian nodded slowly and said, "Whether the country has been destroyed or not, I'm not sure." However, the capital city of Jian'an was broken, the royal family was either killed or captured, and only the second son escaped, and his life and death are unknown. ”

When Yao Guangdao heard this, his heart sank, his face changed sharply, and he said, "That's ...... Brother Nalei, do you know where Lord Xiangguo is now? ”

Xia Wushen also came back to his senses at this moment, his expression gradually became solemn, and said, "Brother Lei, this Lord of South Korea Xiangguo is my master." ”

"Brother Ninety-four, your master is actually Lord Xiangguo!" Lei Batian was stunned, shook his head, and said, "Lord Xiangguo is not in Jian'an City. A few months ago, he had led the army on an expedition. ”

Xia Wushen said: "Senior brother, we don't need to worry too much. The master is such a person, and he wants to have a way to protect himself. ”

Lei Batian asked, "Brother Ninety-four, what are you doing in Wei this time?" ”

Xia Wushen immediately told Yao Guangdao that Wang Chan was in distress, and the two of them came here all the way from the ancient fish country, and told them one by one.

Lei Batian praised: "He is worthy of being the apprentice of Lord Xiangguo, and his skills are very comparable." ”

The three of them talked for a while, divided the pheasants that had been stewed in the pot, and rested here for the night.

In the early morning of the next day, Xia Wushen and Yao Guangdao were about to say goodbye to Lei Batian, when they suddenly heard him say: "Brother Ninety-four, I thought about it last night, I still won't be in Chu State!" ”

Xia Wuqi said: "Why did Brother Lei say that? ”

Lei Batian said: "Brother, do you still remember that day under the Ethereal Peak, we said that since this king ignores the affairs of our people, what is the use of asking him, it is better to change someone else to do it." ”

Xia Wushen nodded and said, "This is indeed the case." ”

Lei Batian slapped his palms and said with a smile: "Photos." Brother Ninety-four, you Brother Lei and I are just a reckless man, I don't know a few big characters, I only know how to dance with guns and sticks, and I can't do anything in this life. You are different, with the careful teaching of Lord Xiangguo, your achievements in the future will be extraordinary, so I will follow you and do some work before and after the saddle and charge into battle. ”

Xia Wushen was stunned for a moment, he didn't know how he said such words, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Yao Guangdao nodded and said, "What Brother Lei said is very true. Little junior brother, I think I will follow what he said. ”

Xia Wushen said helplessly: "Senior brother, you and Brother Lei have said so, what else can I do?" That's all it has to be. ”

Lei Batian smiled: "That's very good. Brother Ninety-four, then I'll go with you. ”

Yao Guangdao shook his head and said, "Brother Lei, you can't go with us this time. ”

Xia Wuxiao said: "Senior brother, why is this? ”

Lei Batian was also quite puzzled, and asked, "Senior Brother Yao, don't you still agree very much, why did you suddenly change your hexagram again?" ”

Yao Guangdao said with a smile: "Senior brother, you have misunderstood. I mean, let's go our separate ways. All the way, my junior brother and I rushed to Jinling City to find out the whereabouts of the master, and along the way, Brother Lei rushed to Tianji Pavilion for help. ”

Xia Wushen said: "What is this Tianji Pavilion?" ”

"But I know that. It is the holy land of Korean Xiuzhen, and its status is equivalent to the status of the Nine Heavens Ethereal Tower of the Chu State. Lei Batian groaned, "Senior Brother Yao, you want me to go to the Heavenly Machine Pavilion for help, but are you sure that the Heavenly Machine Pavilion has not been captured by the Protoss?" ”

Yao Guangdao nodded and said, "The location of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion is extremely hidden, and the Protoss can't easily find out. It was discovered that the masters of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion were like clouds, and the Protoss could not break through it for a while. ”

Xia Wushen said: "Since this is the case, it will be according to what the senior brother said." Brother Lei, I'm sorry for you. ”

"Brother Ninety-four, although I am your eldest brother, I am now your subordinate, and if I have something to say in the future, there is no need to be so polite." Lei Batian said, "Senior Brother Yao, I went alone, and I have no tokens, this Tianji Pavilion may not believe my words." ”

Yao Guangdao said: "The head of this Tianji Pavilion is a master in the world, and his cultivation is profound, and he can peek into people's hearts. He will judge the truth of your words. ”

Lei Batian nodded and said, "That's very good." ”

The three of them discussed and went their separate ways.

On the occasion of parting, Yao Guangdao informed Lei Batian of the specific location of Tianji Pavilion, and Xia Wushen took some silver taels and handed them to him, saying, "Brother Lei, cherish all the way." ”

Yao Guangdao said: "Brother Lei, when you arrive at Tianji Pavilion, if you ask for reinforcements, you will come and join us with the reinforcements." If we return in vain, we will meet in Yecheng of Wei State. ”

Lei Batian said: "Brother Ninety-four, you have to take care of yourself, but don't be reckless." After that, he said goodbye to Xia Wushen and left.
