Chapter 317: Help

Hongjun thought that Duan Qing had worked hard to save himself, and knew that he was kind-hearted and did not want innocent victims on both sides. Immediately, Fang was relieved, and seeing that the situation was critical, he flew out from behind.

Hongjun said to the king of the earth again: "Father, what Brother Duan said is right, why bother to kill more. It's better to strike the army and make peace! ”

Hongjun said to Xiang Feng and Tian Mengjiao: "You two are so bold, you make decisions without permission, aren't you afraid of the king's law?" Tian Meng, do you still have a conscience? Big brother didn't hurt you half of your hair, so he let you go. But will you take revenge? As soon as Hongjun appeared, the situation became even more complicated. Seeing that Hongjun was bent on protecting Duan Qing, the king of the earth was in a dilemma for a while.

The Earth King pondered for a long time, and said to Duan Qing and Hongjun: "This time the lonely family is bound to win, and we can't fall short because of you. If the enemy flees this time, there will inevitably be endless troubles. Jun'er, it's not that you don't know them, so don't be embarrassed for your father. For your sake, you can not blame Duan Qing for the past. What do you think? ”

Seeing that the Earth King was still stubborn, Hongjun glanced at Duan Qing in embarrassment. Duan Qing said: "If my father insists on this, it can only be stepped over my corpse. ”

Seeing that Duan Qing was so resolute, Hongjun followed and said: "Father, the husband sings and the wife follows, since the eldest brother is willing to stop him with death, the daughter can only accompany him to death." It's just that you can't give incense to your grandmother in the future. With that, he drew the sword at his waist.

Hongjun said to the king of earth with tears: "Father, my daughter is sorry for you. This jade girl sword was specially refined by you asking a master, and it sharpened iron like clay. But there has never been blood, and as long as the father orders an attack today, the king will sacrifice with blood. After Hongjun finished speaking, he put the sword around his neck.

The Earth King hurriedly said, "Jun'er, don't do anything stupid, put down your sword quickly." ”

The king of the earth said to Peng Yong again: "Quickly pass the order, no one can take a step forward without my order." Peng Yong saw that Hongjun was so ignorant, although he was angry, but the brother and sister were in love, so naturally he would not sit back and watch Hongjun kill himself in front of him.

Peng Yong was lucky and shouted: "All the troops obey the order, and no one is allowed to take a step forward without the order of the king of the land himself." Violators will be exterminated by the Nine Clans. ”

Peng Yong was worried that someone would act rashly, so he accentuated his tone, and at the same time looked at Feng and Tian Meng, giving them a warning.

Seeing that Hongjun supported him so much, Duan Qing couldn't help but feel agitated in his heart, and said to Hongjun: "Hongjun, you don't have to come to this troubled water, put down your sword quickly, don't hurt yourself." ”

Hongjun said: "Since you have decided, I will naturally marry a chicken and a dog." But I can't fight my father and the army, that's all. ”

At this time, the two armies confronted each other quietly, and no one dared to make a loud noise. For fear of startling this jade girl, she accidentally hurt herself. On the battlefield there was only the occasional sound of horses chirping and the spring breeze blowing leaves. The Earth King's nervous eyes stared at Hongjun, and the Earth King whispered, "Jun'er, why are you doing this. Father doesn't give an order for the time being, you put down the jade girl sword first. ”

The Earth King knew that this sword was extremely sharp, and he was really afraid that Hongjun's hand would hurt herself.

Hongjun said: "Father ordered the army to retreat, so that Jun'er could put down the sword." ”

"This ......" The king of the earth hesitated and hesitated, and the two sides were at a stalemate.

At this moment, someone behind said, "Jun'er did the right thing." ”

Everyone looked for prestige, and a gray-haired old man walked out of the army. It turned out to be Peng Yu, and Peng Chang followed behind. When the king of earth saw this, he hurriedly jumped off his horse and said, "Hello uncle." ”

Peng Hao nodded and said, "Lin Er doesn't have to be polite. Then he turned to Hongjun and said, "Girl, put down the sword quickly." Aren't you tired of lifting? With grandpa here, you can rest assured. Only then did Hongjun put his sword down.

The earth king asked, "Why is my uncle here too?" It's been a long journey, so please go to the back and rest. ”

Peng Yu said: "Are you going to drive me away as soon as I arrive?" As soon as I heard Chang'er say it, I estimated that something was going to happen, so I hurried over. It's good that it's just in time, otherwise the jade girl will turn into a jade corpse. The king of the earth hurriedly said, "My nephew doesn't dare." ”

Peng Yu said: "I think this is good, you ordered the army to retreat five miles first, and still surround this place." Talk to them again. If we really can't talk about it, it's never too late to fight. ”

The king said, "Since my uncle said so, I will do as my uncle wants." Yong'er, the order went down, and the army retreated five miles and set up camp. Defend tightly and do not let the people on the hill escape. Peng Yong turned around to arrange.

Peng Yu said to Duan Qing: "You kid is good, Hongjun has vision!" ”

Peng Chang introduced on the side: "Big brother, this is my grandfather. ”

Duan Qing said: "Grandpa Peng is fine, brother is good." ”

Peng Yu said: "The old bones can still hold on. You go up the mountain to discuss with Wu Long, and we will wait for your news in the big tent in the afternoon. ”

Duan Qing said: "Follow Grandpa's orders. He nodded to Peng Chang.

Then Duan Qing asked Hongjun again: "Hongjun, are you going back to the big tent to wait for me, or will you go up the mountain with me?" ”

Hong Junjiao said angrily: "You don't need to ask, naturally you will go up the mountain with you." ”

The king of the earth and others turned the big tent in the army. Duan Qing and Hongjun and the four maids went up the mountain.

When they arrived at the mountain, Wu Long led everyone to thank Duan Qing and Hongjun.

Duan Qing asked Wu Longdao: "Uncle Wu, now that the Earth King has temporarily withdrawn from the army, the next step is for the two of you to negotiate." What does Uncle Wu think? ”

Wu Long said: "Son, forgive me, we never thought of making peace. Therefore, I can't say anything for a while. Why don't you tell all your thoughts, and then we can discuss it together? ”

Duan Qing said: "I know that Uncle Wu wants to regain the throne of Tusi. But this matter has passed in time, the Peng family has gone through several generations, and the people's will has been attached. I can only advise Uncle Wu to give up the idea of fighting. ”

Wu Chang said unhappily: "If you give up like this, you will really be ashamed of your ancestors and violate your ancestors' teachings." Wu Chang was very unwilling.

Duan Qing said: "Why do you have to care about Brother Wu, whether the Wu family is the king of the soil or the Peng family is the king of the soil." The key is to save Xiangxi from the devastation of war. The Peng and Wu families are close relatives, and the tragic things that happened before should not happen again now. ”

Wu Long thought for a while and said, "The jade girl has a good heart and is well known. It's just that the ancestors dare not forget, if they don't obey it, it won't be a great unfilial piety. ”

Hongjun said: "Uncle Wu shouldn't think like this. You also heard just now that my father has married me to Duan Qing, and he calls you uncle, and I should follow him. According to the generations of the Peng and Wu families, I should also call you uncle. Presumably, my grandmother, in the spirit of heaven, will not be willing to continue to fight against the Peng and Wu families. ”

Duan Qing said: "Uncle Wu, if you insist on following the ancestral teachings, the lives of thousands of people here will not be guaranteed. What should their ancestors say? The rules set by the predecessors are dead, but people are alive, and they should save time and measure the situation. Uncle Wu should be even more responsible for the thousands of lives now. ”

Under the persuasion of Duan Qing and Hongjun, the father and son of the Wu family finally figured it out. Seeing that they agreed to the peace talks, Duan Qing said, "Then does your mother have any other requirements?" ”

Wu Long said: "Then I hope they agree to take Longshan as the center and a radius of 100 miles as our shelter, and they must not interfere with it." ”

Hongjun thought for a while and said, "Xiangxi is so big, you ask for a radius of 100 miles, it is estimated that my father will never agree." ”

Duan Qing said: "This can wait to see the Earth King and see what he means." ”

Wu Long said: "There must be a statue of my ancestor and a god tablet in the royal city sacrifice. ”

Duan Qing and Hongjun said goodbye to Wu Long, came to the military tent under the mountain, and met the king of Tu and Peng Yu.

The earth king asked, "What do they say, Wu Long?" ”

Duan Qing said Wu Long's two requests. The Earth King pondered for a while and said, "It is impossible to have a radius of 100 miles, at most a radius of 20 miles will be set aside for them to settle down." As for the memorial service, this is naturally no problem, his grandfather is the former king of the earth, and he is also our elder. Duan Qing was also happy to see the king of the earth, presumably he also hoped to make Xiangxi peaceful from now on.

Duan Qing hurried back to Longshan and told Wu Long what the king of earth meant. Wu Long felt that a radius of twenty miles was too small at first.

Duan Qing said: "Uncle Wu, you are currently only four or five thousand people, and it can be regarded as sincere that the king of Tu agreed to set aside such a large place for you to settle down." If it continues to be consumed, it will be endless, please Uncle Wu think twice. ”

After Wu Long consulted with everyone again, he told Duan Qing to agree to the arrangement of the Tuwang.

The next day, the king of earth and Wu Long swore an oath of blood. The Peng and Wu families have been at peace since then, and an imminent war has disappeared invisibly. Duan Qing lived in Wangcheng for a few days, and then he wanted to continue his study tour.

The jade girl naturally wanted to go with Duan Qing, but the earth king was reluctant. Therefore, Duan Qing set off for the capital first, and Hongjun came to the capital to fight him in a few more days.

After Duan Qing left, he and Hongjun used flying pigeons to pass books along the way, first, to convey their feelings of longing, and secondly, to inform each other of the situation. Not long ago, Hongjun told Duan Qing that she had left Xiangxi and rushed to the capital. She was accompanied by several maidservants, as well as Duan Qing's sworn brother Peng Chang.

Tuwang has always had business dealings with the capital and opened a trading house in Luoyang. On the one hand, you can sell the mountain freight from Xiangxi to the capital, and on the other hand, you can bring some things back from the capital. There was a team of guards in the firm, a hundred in all. These people are specially trained, and their martial arts are not bad.

This time, Peng Chang was responsible for escorting the mountain goods into Beijing, and at the same time bringing some goods back from the capital. Hongjun learned that he naturally wanted to go with Peng Chang. The king of the earth couldn't resist the red king, so he had to agree.

Duan Qing traveled around, and when he arrived in Danjiang Town, he happened to meet Xiang'er to engage in a martial arts competition to recruit relatives. Naturally, he didn't plan to participate, but when he saw Ma Xiang's strong martial arts, he suddenly became ambitious.

Of course, he mainly wanted to learn the kung fu of Ma Xianghua's mountain faction, not to get Xiang'er. Although Xiang'er's beauty is not much worse than Hongjun, in Duan Qing's heart, there is no girl who can compare to her.

Duan Qing thought about it early in the morning, in case he could get the last chance to face off with Xiang'er at that time, he would naturally take the initiative to admit defeat and give up the chance to win. In this way, it will not affect Xiang'er's recruitment plan.

However, although Duan Qing was strong in martial arts, he was careless for a while and was defeated by Ma Xiang. Duan Qing's martial arts are actually no worse than Ma Xiang, if it is a life-to-life fight, it is difficult to say who will kill the deer.

Duan Qing originally just wanted to take the opportunity to learn Ma Xiang's martial arts, and he didn't care about victory or defeat. Since he lost, he naturally wouldn't admit it, and Duan Qing left the ring.

The next day, Duan Qing continued to watch the competition under the ring. Duan Qing didn't expect that Ma Xiang was actually defeated by Xu Zhitang, and Xu Zhitang's martial arts were obviously stronger.

What's even more surprising is that Xu Zhitang was defeated by Wang Hai again. Only then did Duan Qing know that his father's purpose in letting him travel around was to ask him not to be self-righteous. There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers on the rivers and lakes, masters are like clouds, and there are many people who are more powerful than him in martial arts.

When Duan Qing was at dusk, he went to Yunlai Inn to visit Ma Xiang. When the two met, Ma Xiang was overjoyed. Although Ma Xiang was defeated, he was convinced. He knew very well that he was not Xu Zhitang's opponent, so he did not complain.

The two talked very closely, and they hated to see each other late. Duan Qing said that he wanted to go to the capital to study, and asked Ma Xiang what his plans were. Ma Xiang told Duan Qing that he was looking for his relatives near Nanyang.

Duan Qing was very surprised, and hurriedly asked what was going on. Ma Xiang told Duan Qing that he was abducted from his home when he was four or five years old. The traffickers originally wanted to take him to Chang'an and sell him to others.

When passing by Huashan, Master Huashan's head Feng Yang saw the problem, killed the trafficker, and rescued Ma Xiang. But Ma Xiang was too young at the time to tell where he was from, only that his nickname was Ah Xiang.

The head of the Feng sect had no choice but to take Ma Xiang to Huashan and accept him as a closed disciple. Later, the head of the wind saw that Ma Xiang had half a jade pendant hanging around his neck, and the jade pendant was engraved with the word Ma Xiang.

The head of the wind knew that this was Ma Xiang's name, and obviously Ma Xiang's parents were also afraid that the child would be lost, and they could find it back with the jade pendant in the future. According to Ma Xiang's accent, the head of the wind judged that Ma Xiang should be from the Nanyang area.

The head of the wind also sent someone to Nanyang to inquire, but there has been no news. More than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and Ma Xiang has grown up. Feng Zhang's sword Ma Xiang was successful in martial arts, so he let Ma Xiang travel down the mountain.

Ma Xiang traveled while doing chivalrous deeds. Thinking of his life experience, he was going to Nanyang to inquire and see if he could find his family. He came to Danjiang Town and found that Xiang'er was engaged in a martial arts competition to recruit relatives.

Ma Xiang saw that Xiang'er was very beautiful, so he was a little tempted. Besides, he wanted to take the opportunity to compete with heroes from all walks of life, so he went to the ring. didn't expect that Ximen Feiyun didn't fight for long, and he took the initiative to admit defeat.

When Duan Qing heard this, he knew that it was impossible for Ma Xiang to go to Luoyang with him, so he had to wish Ma Xiang that he could find his relatives as soon as possible. He told Ma Xiang that if he had time to go to Luoyang, he could go to Xiangxi Commercial Bank to find himself.

The next day, Ma Xiang left Danjiang Town and went to Nanyang. Duan Qing came to the ring and wanted to continue watching the competition of the masters. But he waited for a while, but saw Wen Gui come out and say that the competition was temporarily suspended.

Duan Qing saw that the competition was not successful, so he also left Danjiang Town and rushed to Luoyang. After a while, he heard the sound of fighting in front of him and hurried over. He flew up a large tree and watched carefully.

Duan Qing happened to see that Huang Dan was attacking Liangchen, and he also saw that Xiang'er and Liangchen were together. Duan Qing thought that Huang Dan and the others were robbers blocking the way, and his chivalrous heart suddenly rose. He was worried that Liangchen was not an opponent, so he immediately flew in front of Liangchen and took Huang Dan's palm for Liangchen.

Duan Qing's appearance surprised Liangchen greatly, and also made Huang Dan feel very surprised. Liangchen took a closer look and recognized that it was Duan Qing, and was immediately overjoyed. Liangchen knew that Duan Qing must have seen himself and Xiang'er together, so he came to help.
