Chapter Ninety-Eight: Black Armor Xuanqi
According to the statistics of good deeds, there are a total of sixteen large and small waterfalls in this Wanfeng Forest, but if you want to talk about the difference in width and water flow, then the first place is none other than this waterfall where the ghost hand doctor is located.
The water poured down from the air as high as more than 50 zhang, and made a huge sound on the waterhole on the ground, and the intensity of the sound was not exaggerated to describe it as deafening, so that the two people who spoke in the medicine house by the pool had to raise their pitches a little.
"Old man Wang, although your injuries have healed, the damaged foundation has not been repaired, if it is not handled properly, it will be difficult to make further progress in the realm in the future, you should think it out yourself. ”
If others hear that a doctor says that his foundation is unstable, he may immediately ask for a solution, and it is estimated that only this Wang Xuanlang will not take the unstable foundation seriously.
"It doesn't matter, I've already reached the highest realm, I don't know how to go about the road ahead, I can't enter the realm if I can't enter the realm, not to mention that my sword cultivation has never cared about the martial arts realm, only the kendo realm, if the sword path is invincible in my heart, I will be invincible, even if the immortals are in front of me at this time, I will slash it with a sword. ”
The Ghost Hand Doctor seemed to have guessed this result before he spoke, so he didn't continue to dissuade him, but after hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth and spoke.
"If you can stay for another month and a half, I will be sure that I will heal your foundation wounds, and when the time comes, your chances of victory may be one more point. ”
It seems that along the way, no one has ever been able to dissuade Wang Xuanlang, who has made up his mind, and this ghost hand doctor saint is naturally no exception.
"Okay, I don't know your thoughts, it's getting harder and harder to find these days, so don't waste all your treasures on me. ”
After finishing speaking, Wang Xuanlang turned his head and shouted to the medicine house.
"Ergouzi, what the hell are you grinding in there, why don't you get out of here and leave, there is no beautiful girl here, what do you still care about, even if Xu San has red lips and white teeth, you can't do anything to others." ”
The old man thought that Ergou would come to a-for-tat confrontation, but it seemed that this apprentice had never known what respecting the teacher was.
But this time it was unexpected by the old man, Ergou didn't pay attention to him, the master, but pushed open the door of the medicine house, and said something to the door.
"San'er, don't be embarrassed, as the old saying goes, the ugly daughter-in-law is going to see her in-laws sooner or later, what's the use of you hiding, right? ”
After finishing speaking, he was still not satisfied, so he dragged Xu San out of the door.
In fact, Xu San's dress is nothing remarkable, but he is just carrying a huge box as tall as him but three times wider than him.
plus carrying a bag with some clothes and some small items, just this makes Xu San under the box look a little funny.
However, it can be seen that he is extremely careful about the box on his back, for no other reason, but because this box contains his master's most precious twelve great medicines.
"Old man, Grandpa and San'er are going to walk the rivers and lakes with us. ”
Ergou said excitedly to his master, while Wang Xuanlang looked back at the ghost hand doctor with a face of disbelief.
"Don't be nervous, it doesn't have much to do with you, although I want to save your life at a critical time, but the most important thing is that my apprentice has been studying medicine here for ten years, and it's time to go out and walk in the world. ”
After the ghost hand finished speaking, he didn't give Wang Xuanlang a chance to speak, and directly raised his feet and walked out of the valley, letting Wang Xuanlang look at his back and shake his head and smile bitterly.
...
Wanfeng Lin was already very close to the Southern Tang Dynasty, so after they came out of the Wanfeng Forest, it only took three or five days to reach the border between Great Chu and Southern Tang.
However, they walked very slowly along the way, because when the village passed through the town along the way, Xu San would set up a stall to treat people.
said that it was a stall to see a doctor, but in fact, it was just a rag spread on the ground, and this outfit looked even more miserable than those ordinary Jianghu Lang.
Xu San only sees a doctor and prescribes medicine here, but does not take medicine, but he does not charge for seeing a doctor.
This is also the rule of their Jianghu doctors, after the apprentice is a teacher, he can only eat in the rivers and lakes after he has been in the rivers and lakes for free for three years.
In a small town called Fu'an, the two elders, Wang Xuanlang and Ghost Hand, naturally found a tea stall and sat down, watching Ergou and Xu San busy in front of the rag stall.
The town is only two days away from the border, so it is inevitable that when there is friction between the two countries, the flames of war will burn here, and it is not uncommon to see fierce burly soldiers or disabled people with missing arms and legs on the streets.
However, the last thing people lack is the yearning for a better life, and this war-torn town is no exception, as can be seen from the name of their town.
Fu'an, Fu'an! But how difficult it must be to talk about the word Fu'an on this border.
"San'er, I've also heard of the rules of your stall for three years, but it's generally not all fooled around, it's enough to set up a stall in one place for a day, but why don't you leave when you come to your place, and the patients are endless?"
When he found a place to take a breath, Ergou asked Xu San suspiciously.
"Ergouzi, you don't understand this, right! My master told me, what we do is to grab food in the rice bowl of Lord Yama, if you don't usually accumulate a little bit of yin virtue, maybe you will be taken away by Lord Yama that day. ”
didn't continue to dwell on this, Ergou changed the question and asked.
"San'er, why don't you take your master with you if you can't say three words, are you the only one who has your master?"
Xu San was naturally suspicious of this, but he had some doubts about what Ergou said.
Speaking of this, Xu San's life is actually similar to that of Ergou, they were all picked up by their masters, and they followed their respective masters when they were young.
"I've been with my master since I was very young, aren't you?"
Ergou shook his head slightly.
"I'm not, I'll go crazy if I stay with this old man all the time, I still know a lot of people, there are big brother Qin, and his sister Qin Nuxia, I don't know if so much time has passed, she is still willing to do chivalry with me, I still have two brothers, a sister, and ......"
Ergou didn't notice the change in Xu San's face at first, and the more he said a name, the more lonely Xu San's face became.
But fortunately, he found this in time and didn't continue, feeling Xu San's sadness, Ergou stretched out his hand and hugged his shoulder.
"It's okay, it's okay, we'll be brothers in the future, then my brother himself is your brother, and they will definitely be happy to see you." ”
Ergou's hand on Xu San's shoulder patted him lightly on the shoulder a few times, and continued in a non-hurried tone.
"Wait a minute, I'll take you to see them, and by the way, I'll tell you about the last family thing, don't learn from your dead ghost master, if you like women, there are so many good girls in Brother Qin's dart game, if you like everyone's girlfriends, it's easier, my two brothers, one is the future Xiangye, the other is the future emperor, no matter who you fancy at that time, as long as that girl is willing, even the king of heaven and Lao Tzu can't stop us!"
Xu San didn't know if he was confused by Ergou's promise to marry him a daughter-in-law, the lonely look on his face disappeared in an instant, and he put on a smile that was even brighter than before.
"Ergou, in fact, the daughter-in-law doesn't matter much, I mainly want to meet your two brothers. ”
"Come on, we've been together for more than a month, I don't know you yet, along the way, your eyes have not been less to those little ladies, do you still think that no one has found out? Let me tell you, in addition to me, the other two old men can also see clearly. ”
Xu San, who was pierced by Ergou's words, immediately blushed, scratched his head embarrassedly, and stopped talking.
The boy is still a boy, and at this age, it's time to look at the girl's breasts.
...
Because Xu Sanyi had to set up stalls all the way, they had to walk out of the original three-to-five-day journey for half a month, especially when they were getting closer to the border, and the number of people who needed to see a doctor became more and more.
However, no matter how long the road is, there will always come to an end, and at noon on this day, they saw the border city - Yutang City through the sunlight that they had not seen for a long time, and the meaning of the name of the city is the superficial meaning, to resist the Southern Tang Dynasty.
If there is still some peace in a small town like Fu'an, then after coming here, there is only naked slaughter.
However, this kind of slaughter meant that a few days ago, with the arrival of a holy decree from Chu Zheng, it became much lighter, and the letter brought back by the second prince Chu Tianxiong from the monarch of the Southern Tang Dynasty allowed the two sides to obtain a brief peace.
In order to demonstrate the sincerity of Great Chu, Chu Zheng also deliberately wrote in the holy decree that as long as the war does not stop in the future, the trade between the Southern Tang Dynasty and Great Chu will be endless.
This is a rare piece of good news for the merchants who walk between the two countries, who used to pay half of the profits of a trip by bribing the border guards with only the money they used to pay for the border guards, but now they still need to make a little more, but in general they can still make a lot more.
When the two dogs and they just walked to the gate of the city, there was a torrent carrying the dust from the city rushed out, and when the torrent approached, they found that it was a team of cavalry wearing black armor and riding a black horse under the crotch roaring.
There were only fifty horsemen, but the impact was very strong, as if facing a huge wave, and the horse's hooves were raised and fell in unison, as if it were not for the loud sound of stepping on the ground, giving the impression that there was only one horse running.
Looking at the black-armored cavalry galloping in front of him, Ergou was shocked, not that he hadn't seen the cavalry, but that the cavalry he had seen was as weak as a child compared to these.
"Old man, what kind of army did you just pass, it looks so powerful. ”
What Wang Xuanlang likes to see the most is the appearance of Ergou who has never seen the world, so when he speaks, his face is more complacent.
"Ergou, you don't know, what has just passed is the biggest reliance of the Chu family to sit firmly in the country, the name of this cavalry is the Black Armor Xuanqi, and their deterrent power is to some extent more terrifying than ten or twenty masters of the first-grade realm. ”
At this moment, not only Ergou's eyes were full of shock, but even Xu San also exclaimed.
"Grandpa Wang, this is not as terrifying as you say!"
For Xu San, the old man was much more polite.
"Hehe, San'er, you don't know, there is a saying that when manpower is poor, if you fall into the endless cavalry, even if you are a first-class master, you will only be consumed alive, let's not talk about others, it is your grandfather Wang and I, just now there are 10,000 people in the army like that, then I am dead and alive!"
"Old man, there aren't many of us Dachu in the army just now! If this is too much, wouldn't our Dachu already dominate the world. ”
After hearing that it was Ergou's question, Wang Xuanlang returned to his previous state of being angry.
"Not much, what do you think, there are 20,000 such black-armored Xuanqi on the border of the Southern Tang Dynasty alone, and there are 40,000 in the north and 40,000 in the east to guard against the grassland barbarians and the Turks in the mountains and forests, and secretly I don't know how much Chu Zheng is hiding!"
Jiang Ergou, who had long been accustomed to Wang Xuanlang's tone, then asked.
"Then since they are so powerful, why haven't we been able to defeat them after so many years?"
For example, the wolf rider on the grassland, in recent years, has crushed Xiao Shanyu, the king of Liaodong, to the point of being out of breath, and can only rely on the 40,000 black-armored Xuanqi and his 120,000 slaughtering army to support him. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Xuanlang looked at the north with a wry smile.
"In my opinion, in a few years, there will be no more peace in a few years!"
