Chapter 34: How difficult the road is
Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing took the team and the grain cart and traveled for days and days, and soon arrived at the boundary of Shandong. One day, at dusk, the army marched to a place with lush forests and bamboos, and clear streams and rapids. When the soldiers saw the water source, they all ran to the front to drink water.
Looking at the tired soldiers, Fu Tianpeng sighed again and again. When he handed the water bag to Zhao Xueqing, he said: "Sister Qing, the hardships of marching and conquering, only when I put on this armor can I deeply understand it. It was not easy for these soldiers, but fortunately, when they arrived in Shandong, they would soon be able to deliver grain and grass to Marshal Han's hands. We're going to be able to make a good deal too. ”
Fu Tianpeng said very easily, but Zhao Xueqing frowned and shook her head again and again. She told Fu Tianpeng that she always felt that Qin Hui had some untold purpose, so this time she escorted the grain and grass, and she did not leave her post, so she must not take it lightly.
Zhao Xueqing is thoughtful and often has the advantage in what she says, so Fu Tianpeng will learn from her advice to make up for his negligence when dealing with major matters. Fu Tianpeng saw Zhao Xueqing's solemn expression, and when he thought of some details, he also thought that Qin Hui's unreasonable approach must have a deep meaning.
After drinking the water, all the soldiers were full of comfort and regained their full energy. Fu Tianpeng explored the horse forward at this time, looking into the distance, this bamboo forest path is tortuous and deep, and it is impossible to see the end. After Fu Tianpeng turned around and told Zhao Xueqing about the situation, Zhao Xueqing told Fu Tianpeng that it was already dusk, and the trail ahead was narrow and overgrown with vegetation. I don't think it would be better to set up camp in the open area here, and wait for tomorrow morning to send out the scouts along the path to find out the details.
Fu Tianpeng immediately agreed, and he sent a general order to let the soldiers set up a chain of camps to take care of all places. The patrol soldiers rotate according to the hour and are responsible for the perimeter vigilance. After the arrangement was completed, Fu Tianpeng laid out the cloth felt in the army's bags and let Zhao Xueqing sleep peacefully. In the past few days, she has marched with her, and her delicate face is full of tiredness.
When the afterglow of the remnant sun fades in the bamboo forest, the night completely dyes the surroundings into thick ink. Zhao Xueqing fell asleep soundly, but Fu Tianpeng was sleepy. He gently lowered the curtain in front of the tent and walked out quietly.
The breeze shuttles through the secluded fence, and the bright moon wanders in the sky. Fu Tianpeng looked at the silver light all over the ground, listening to the cicadas singing softly, and his thoughts fluctuated in his heart. In the depths of his affection, Fu Tianpeng recited casually: "Sitting alone in the secluded grate, playing the piano and howling." ”
Fu Tianpeng said to himself, even if there is a piano at the moment. He can't be as free and natural as Wang Wei, and he is attached to the landscape. The wolf smoke rises in the north, the national feud has not snowed, and his father's great revenge has not been avenged, how can such a chaotic heartstring be calmed. Thinking of this, Fu Tianpeng couldn't help but sigh again.
Just as Fu Tianpeng was contemplating, a series of laughter broke the silence of the night. "Hahahaha, when Lao Tzu results in you, you don't have to worry about things in this world anymore."
The sudden visit of the uninvited guest in the dark immediately aroused Fu Tianpeng's vigilance. He flicked the knife out of the sheath, stepped on Taiyi Tiangang under his feet, turned around and looked, cautiously observing the movements around him.
After a while, more than twenty black-clothed people jumped down from the dense leaf crown. One of them was a man in black, with a large waist and a rough body, and a pair of round eyes under the mask emitted two sharp rays of light. His left hand was clad in iron claws, and his feet were loose and tough, blocking Fu Tianpeng like a wall.
Fu Tianpeng pointed to the leader of the man in black and asked in an angry tone, "Who are you?" ”
As soon as his words fell, the black-clothed leader raised his head and laughed: "Hehehe, I am your old friend, and I am here to send you to hell today." ”
The man in black said, sped up his pace and leaned forward, bent his elbows, and made a move of "two dragons grabbing pearls". I saw the black-clothed man's iron claws flying and grabbing, and the claw shadows danced everywhere he went, like seeing flowers in the fog, which was dazzling.
In the face of the black-clothed man's moves, Fu Tianpeng fixed the lower plate with four flat and eight horse piles, and then gathered the dantian, concentrating on the concentration, and the palms of his palms fluttered around, as if the plum was full of the magic of the virtual reality.
Fu Tianpeng and the man in black added their fists and feet, you came and went, and after fighting each other for more than ten rounds, the man in black knew that his internal strength was far inferior to that of the other party.
In order to distract Fu Tianpeng's attention and achieve the purpose of each break. The black-clothed leader shouted to the rest of the people: "Idiot, what are you doing here?" Come up and get a few of them, and they will bear this kid with me. I used rockets to draw the curtain for the rest. ”
After Fu Tianpeng saw through the sinister intentions of the black-clothed leader, his eyes were immediately bloodshot, and the raging anger burned on his face. Fu Tianpeng pointed to the black-clothed leader and said: "You gangsters are invincible, and you actually resort to such indiscriminate means as releasing rockets. ”
The black-clothed leader sneered a few times and said to Fu Tianpeng, "Hmph! The only way to do this is to achieve victory. It's called fighting wits and not fighting strength, you stinky boy learn to do it. Hahaha. ”
When Fu Tianpeng and the black-clothed leader met each other in hand-to-hand combat, several black-clothed people on the side had already bent their bows and arrows, preparing to launch an attack on Zhao Xueqing's tent. "How can it be?" Fu Tianpeng roared, flew forward, and slashed left and right with the blue wave treasure knife in his hand. Just listen to "Ahhhhh Seven or eight black-clothed people were killed by Fu Tianpeng's "Searching Mountains under the Sea".
When the black-clothed leader saw the body of his accomplice who had fallen to death, there was a murderous aura in his eyes. He glanced at the two groups of men in black, and the two gangs immediately understood, scattered and set fire to the surroundings.
Fu Tianpeng shouted at the soldiers: "There are villains who have sneaked up, you guys hurry up and help." ”
Hearing Fu Tianpeng shouting, the black-clothed leader haha: "Boy, you just shouted in your throat, and they can't get up to help you." ”
Fu Tianpeng looked at the black-clothed leader with a suspicious look, and the black-clothed leader took out a celadon vial from his arms, and he told Fu Tianpeng that they had already released the souls in the stream of the bamboo forest when they found out that the army was coming to drink. Now all these soldiers under your command are lonely ghosts.
The black-clothed leader laughed wildly with a porcelain vase in his hand, Fu Tianpeng's eyes were red, his arms gathered his strength, and his body suddenly flew forward. The light and shadow of the blue wave treasure knife flashed, and the sharp momentum cut the mountains and flat peaks. The black-clothed leader only felt a figure flash in front of him, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat in horror.
Fu Tianpeng's sweeping Liuhe is the essence of the Fu family's knife technique. This move is fierce and exquisite, and the entry point is accurate and in place. If it weren't for the black-clothed leader who was in a hurry and used the "shrinking turtle" style,
I'm afraid that he is already in a different place at this moment.
However, after a long period of practice in the rivers and lakes, coupled with the tireless cultivation of the three senior monks of Southern Shaolin, Fu Tianpeng's internal cultivation has reached the point of perfection and perfection. The Fu family's knife technique is even more powerful with the assistance of internal strength.
The black-clothed leader, the carp, straightened up, and after turning over and standing up, he felt something dripping down his forehead from time to time. He stretched out his hand to wipe it, and it was actually Yin Yin's bloodstains. Seeing that Fu Tianpeng had injured himself, the black-clothed leader's strange eyes widened, and he immediately waved his hand and surrounded Fu Tianpeng.
At that time, the sound of fierce fighting was in my ears, and Zhao Xueqing also woke up from her sleep. She rushed out of the tent with the Chanjuan sword in her hand and came to Fu Tianpeng's side. Facing the gangsters besieging Fu Tianpeng, Zhao Xueqing said to Fu Tianpeng: "Brother Tianpeng, look at the clothes of these thieves. How can they be so similar to the people who attacked us in the broken temple the previous time, could it be that they are in a group? ”
Fu Tianpeng nodded, his eyes fixed on the black-clothed leader and his men. Then he said to Zhao Xueqing: "Sister Qing, what you said is good. These people are also killers sent by the Five Swords Hall. ”
Hearing this, the black-clothed leader sneered from time to time: "Boy, you are very right. We are the people of the Five Swords Hall. This time you're all here, don't even think about running. ”
Zhao Xueqing's watery eyes were full of anger, and she drew out the Chanjuan sword and fought against the enemy side by side with Fu Tianpeng. Fu Tianpeng also drew a knife in his hand, and he told the black-clothed leader that he had any ability, just use it.
The voices of the two parties fell to the ground, and each other's swords were raised.
Zhao Xueqing's Chanjuan sword in her hand reflected the moon in the pool, and wherever the sword blade pointed, three or four gangsters were killed.
And the black-clothed leader, in the fight with Fu Tianpeng just now, did not get half a bargain. Now there is Zhao Xueqing helping Fu Tianpeng from the side, so the black-clothed leader is in a panic, and his moves are becoming more and more chaotic.
Fu Tianpeng saw that the black-clothed leader's offensive had been greatly reduced, he quickly moved to change positions, and with one elbow carried enough true qi, he used the "Golden Bull Collision" to knock the black-clothed leader to the ground. After receiving this heavy blow, the black-clad leader felt a darkness in front of him, and after he took two strong steps, he fell to the ground.
After taking the black-clothed leader, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing worked together to deal with the other gangsters. The two of them swept the leaves in the autumn wind, and soon solved all the thieves. In order to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, Fu Tianpeng tied up the black-clothed leader and poured the leftover water from the water bag on his head.
The black-clad leader slowly opened his eyes and slowly regained his senses. The thief's eyes widened, and he smiled contemptuously at Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing. Fu Tianpeng told the black-clothed leader that he didn't want to harm his life, and as long as he could tell the truth about the grain robbery, he could let him go.
After hearing Fu Tianpeng's words, the black-clothed leader laughed wildly a few times. He told Fu Tianpeng to put away the trick of coaxing the naughty boy, as long as he said it, he would die when he stood upside down. Seeing that the black-clothed leader didn't believe it, Fu Tianpeng took the Bibo Treasure Knife as a lesson.
The black-clad leader nodded, and he spoke, "I tell you, yes...... Yes! ”
A meteor struck in the shadows, and the black-clothed leader immediately became angry. Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing looked back, and there was no figure in the dense bamboo forest.
Fu Tianpeng was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and Zhao Xueqing said to him: "Brother Tianpeng, this time the escort of grain and grass has damaged the soldiers, and we have no choice but to rush to Zhenjiang now and ask Marshal Han for guilt." ”
Before leaving, Zhao Xueqing checked the grain truck, and she was immediately shocked. After Fu Tianpeng heard the news, he was also dumbfounded after opening all the curtains. It turned out that there was no grain on the cart, and it was all reeds and barnyard grass.
Zhao Xueqing and Fu Tianpeng understood at this moment that they had fallen into the trap carefully designed by their opponents, and I am afraid that there was a bigger conspiracy hidden in this layout.
