"I said why the clothes of the two people are so similar, and they are both carrying swords, it turns out that the two are related. Chi Tang thought about it, and said: "Oh, that Mr. Xue, I know that I know the way of the village, and I just came to invest in our village not long ago, if you look for him, just wait for the light of day to shine and the door of the village will open by itself, and you will go to the front yard to recruit Yingtang to find him." ”

"Thank you, big brother. The short-haired man clenched his fists and laughed.

Chi Tang lowered his head and hurried away, that Xue Yang was still afraid to avoid it, this person was a relative of that Xue Yang, but there was nothing strange about it.

The two figures were staggered, and the short-haired man suddenly said "Huh?", Huo Ran turned around and looked at Chi Tang.

"Big brother, wait, I still have something to ask. The short-haired man's eyes flashed, staring at Chitang.

Chi Tang turned around and saw the short-haired man's eyes, and the wound under his ear suddenly hurt again, as if Xue Yang looked at him that day, he was shocked and hurriedly took a step back.

The short-haired man took a step forward and asked in a deep voice, "Has this big brother encountered some strange things recently?"

Chi Tang was suspicious, covered the wound under his ear, and replied, "What's the strange thing? I don't know what you said." ”

The short-haired man suddenly made a move, grabbed Chi Tang's front placket, Chi Tang saw him shoot, his mind was moved, if he used his martial arts, this grasp had plenty of time to dodge, but now he didn't dare to exercise his real strength, and saw that although this grasp was fast, but there was nothing vicious, he simply let the short-haired man catch himself, and deliberately pretended to be surprised on his face.

The short-haired man looked at Chi Tang repeatedly, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed, and as soon as the light in his eyes passed, the wound under Chi Tang's ear ceased to be painful.

The short-haired man approached and sniffed, as if a dog was sniffing the smell, which made Chi Tang feel uncomfortable, how kind of virtue did this short-haired man and Xue Yang have? Both like to sniff their noses? Although Chi Tang was a little frightened, he couldn't help but be secretly amused.

The short-haired man let go of Chi Tang, shook his head, stared at Chi Tang and asked, "If nothing strange happened, why does this big brother have a smell on him?"

Chi Tang's heart moved, and he was deliberately stunned: "What kind of smell? I haven't taken a bath these days, I'm afraid that there is a smell of sweat on my body, what are you doing with me?"

The short-haired man arched his hand: "Offended, offended, eldest brother often goes in and out of the mountains and forests, you need to beware of the high mountains and the essence, the forest is different, don't be contaminated with any evil spirit." ”

Chi Tang heard this, and his heart was even more shocked, listening to this meaning, this person seemed to know that he had encountered a demon, and he was about to ask a few more words, when he saw that the short-haired man suddenly looked up into the distance, and said "pout" in his mouth.

Chi Tang followed the eyes of the short-haired man, turned his head to look, and there was a Kong Ming lantern floating in the mountain col in the distance, this Kong Ming lantern is rumored to be made by Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms, and the fire was ignited in the air bag, and the fire naturally drove the air bag to fly. This time in the early morning of dawn, this Kong Ming lantern is very dazzling.

"How could anyone put a lantern in such an early morning?" the short-haired man muttered to himself, and suddenly jumped up and ran quickly towards the distant col.

Chi Tang saw that his feet were strong, his body was agile, and his skills were very good, so he secretly called himself surprised. Thinking of what he said, "The mountains are high and the forests are different", I couldn't help but touch my heart, and I was stunned for a long time.

As soon as he came back to his senses and walked a few steps, he saw the short-haired man running back like a gust of wind, and shouted to Chi Tang: "Hurry! Go back to the village!

"Thief?" Chi Tang didn't realize for a while.

The short-haired man grabbed Chi Tang and ran quickly, Chi Tang was carried by him, his body was almost unstable, he didn't dare to use his real strength, and his feet naturally couldn't keep up with the pace of the short-haired man, the short-haired man simply carried Chi Tang by his hand, and he didn't think that there was one more person in his hand, and he ran faster and faster.

Chi Tang simply let him exert his strength, and he followed the gallop, but it was more relaxed, and he secretly admired the light skills of this short-haired man, and asked in his mouth: "What kind of thief?

The short-haired man said as he ran: "There is a large group of black pressure in the mountain col, all of them are thieves, and the Kong Ming lantern is put by them, and they are angry." Behold, they are going to plunder your estates. ”

Chi Tang was surprised, and blurted out: "There are thieves who want to come and loot here? What thieves are so bold? There are hundreds of guests in the village, all of whom are highly skilled, and your relative Xue Yang is also among them, and Zhuang Ding is not to say that there are three or five hundred people, and the official guards here are close to the master, but they can send troops here in half a day, and the village is deep and strong, and there are many means of prevention, and those thieves want to take our village, it is unlikely. ”...,

The short-haired man's footsteps did not stop: "I can see the banner clearly, do you know who these thieves are? They are the notorious Qishan thieves!"

Hearing the three words of Qishan thief, Chi Tang was also in his heart. This Qishan bandit was originally a group of strongmen in Guanzhong, the leader of the Qishan bandits was called Duan Fu Rejection Wing, Duan was originally one of the three major branches of Donghu Xianbei, Donghu civil strife, Duan's family was poor and migrated south, but this rejection wing fell to Guanzhong, gathered people and horses, and made a chaotic place. At the peak, there were more than 5,000 Qishan thieves, most of whom were composed of brave and brave people in the Central Plains. At one time, the martial arts had the intention of forming a righteous army, which was specifically to crusade against the Qishan bandits, but then it was done due to changes in the current situation in the Central Plains. The year before last, the Guanzhong people gathered 50,000 elite iron horsemen, only to fight and thwart the Qishan bandits, the Qishan bandits were injured and damaged most of them, and the rest of them did not know where to go from Duan Fu to the wings, how did they know that they had sneaked to the south and committed murder again.

Chi Tang remembered again, that section of the rejection wing was also a very brave person, and in the Battle of Guanzhong, the net of heaven and earth composed of 50,000 iron horsemen failed to capture him. It is said that this person has never met an opponent with a bone remnant blood knife, and in the hearts of the martial arts people, only the double and five warriors can be compared with it, but unfortunately Chi Tang has never seen this person, it is difficult to compete, and he never thought that at this time and now, he will meet with this rejection wing.

The short-haired man naturally didn't know what Chi Tang was thinking, and he was still saying: "I am alone, and I can protect myself even if I encounter them." But I can't bear to see your village miserable, you go to your village, announce the matter, and prepare quickly!"

While speaking, the short-haired man had already carried Chitang to the front of the village, and to his surprise, the door of the village was wide open, and the front of the door was empty, but there was no one in sight.

The short-haired man put Chi Tang down, and Chi Tang looked at the scene in front of him, and was also very strange: "Why did the village door open so early today?"

"Don't delay, go to the village and shout to defend the enemy, depending on the situation, the Qishan thieves can be killed here in only one or two hours." The short-haired man said.

Chi Tang hurried into the village and shouted loudly: "A strong man is coming! A strong man is coming!" The shout spread, and it was extremely harsh in the early morning.

Chi Tang shouted as he ran towards the Zhuangshang sentry tower, where a large bronze gong was erected, which was used to strike a warning.

"What are you shouting about, who are you?" A sharp sound came from the sentry tower, Chi Tang followed the sound and looked, a person with curly hair and red eyes, a majestic physique, was standing on top of the sentry tower, but it was the man Shanzi Siji, I don't know why he got up so early.

Chi Tang hurried to catch up, and said to Shan Siji in a panicked tone: "I am Zhang Wu, a domestic servant in the kitchen, and I went to the back mountain early in the morning to collect firewood, and I saw many robbers in the mountain col of the back mountain ambush, just to come to us. Mr. Shan, ring the gong quickly, I'm afraid it's too late. ”

Shan Siji sneered, his eyes flashed, his hands raised, but it was also a Kong Ming lantern slowly rising, Chi Tang was stunned: "Mr. Shan, what is this for?"

"You have too much to do!" Shan Siji said coldly, approaching him, flipped the scimitar in his hand, and slashed straight at Chi Tang's neck.

Chi Tang was slightly surprised, why didn't this Shansiji say a word, and he would take his own life when he came up? He looked at the direction of Shansiji's blade, and naturally he was not afraid, but when the blade was close to his body, he obliquely avoided it.

A long sword suddenly stretched out behind him, and with a ding, it separated Shan Siji's scimitar, and at the same time, the voice of the short-haired man sounded: "What are you doing? Why do you want to kill him?" It turned out that it was the short-haired man who arrived later, and saw Shan Siji slashing straight at Chi Tang, so he came to the rescue.

Chi Tang saw the Kong Ming lantern in the back mountain is the signal that the Qishan thief should send to the village, and Shan Siji got the news early, came early in the morning to open the village gate, and at the same time went to the sentry tower to release the Kong Ming lantern in response, but it happened to be hit by Chi Tang, Shan Siji saved the idea of extinguishing the mouth, so he wanted to cut Chi Tang with a knife, and he didn't want to know where such a short-haired man came from and intervened.

Under the invitation of Shan Siji and the short-haired man, the tiger's mouth was hot, and he could barely hold the scimitar, and he was secretly shocked in his heart.

The short-haired man motioned to Chi Tang to quickly climb up to the sentry tower and sound the gong to warn, and the rungs stopped Shan Siji and said: "The thieves are coming, your Zhuang Shangren came to report the news, but you want to kill him, are you the internal response of the gang of thieves?" After seeing the rising Kong Ming lantern and the actions of Shan Siji who was in a hurry to extinguish his mouth, the short-haired man and Chi Tang now understood that this Shan Siji must be the internal response of the Qishan thieves.

Shan Siji's eyes were gloomy, and he didn't answer, he noticed that Chi Tang had climbed up the sentry tower, and was about to hit the gong with a copper mallet, when suddenly the scimitar in his hand shot out, drew an arc, and flew straight to Chi Tang, the short-haired man flew the sword and knocked the scimitar away, the scimitar deviated from the original flight trajectory, circled, and flew back, here Shan Siji had already roared, took the scimitar in his hand, rubbed his body forward, and fought with the short-haired man.

"Dangdang dang!" The sound of striking the gong stirred in the village, Chi Tang beat the gong, his eyes glanced at the Shansi Ji who was fighting with the short-haired man downstairs, and snorted coldly, this Hu man is really hateful, he wants to take his life twice, if he doesn't dare to use his real strength, he can be good-looking at that time, even so, Chi Tang is also angry in his heart, and is thinking about whether to simply ignore the demon trouble, and first use martial arts to teach the Shansi in front of him a lesson.

The sound of the gong alarmed the whole village, and many Zhuang Ding had already flocked here, and Shan Siji was also retreating under the sword momentum of the short-haired man.

This place is not far from the recruiting hall where the doormen gathered, and soon, many doormen also rushed over with their own swords, and they were all surprised to see the scene of Shan Siji and the short-haired man fighting, and they heard Xue Yang's voice: "Fourth senior brother, why are you here?"
