Chapter 25: Sweeping Away Sorrows (5)
In the dense forest not far away, Lu Ge, the helmsman of the Lizhou branch of the Love Sect, was holding a simple knife, and was fighting with a person, and the remaining seven or eight Love Sect members were scattered in front of the wheelbarrow carrying the Yiyi, watching the battle with all their hearts. The man fighting with Lu Ge was holding a long sword with his back to the white snow, he couldn't see his face clearly for a while, and he wondered in his heart: "Could it be that Lu Ge has met a bandit?"
At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Central Plains and Jinghu areas where the Song and Jin dynasties were at war were full of soldiers, and the local people were hungry and cold, and suffered a lot. Although the Jiangnan region is relatively stable, the officials and tigers and wolves exploit them in every possible way, and the common people suffer from exploitation and oppression, and their lives are also very difficult, so that the local people are scattered and wandering in all directions.
In October of the second year of Xuanhe of Huizong (1120), Fang La led the people to revolt, calling himself "Shenggong" and Jianyuan "Yongle". At the height of the Fangla regime, there were 52 counties in six prefectures, including Hangzhou and Shezhou, and the southeast was shaken. At this time, it has been more than 30 years since Fang La's defeat and death, but the Jiangnan area is still rampant with bandits, thieves, and the world is quite unstable.
Bai Yixue's footsteps were light, and he slowly approached, and the people who were watching the battle were all contemplating the drama in the field, but no one noticed it. He got closer, and Fang Shi saw that the person who was fighting with Lu Ge was none other than the yellow-shirted young man he had met in Juyu Town a few days ago. His martial arts were much higher than Lu Ge's, but he was seriously injured and could not do his best.
The young man even made "Hong Yan unbearable to listen to in sorrow", "Yu Shen Yan is the end of the world", "Go to the wild goose to speak far away", "The wild goose on the cloud breaks Hu Tianyue", the swordsmanship is fast and exquisite, and the white-clothed snow can see clearly, it is actually the "Wild Goose Gathering Sand Serial Swordsmanship" of Cangjia Villa, he was taken aback, jumped into the entrance, and shouted: "It's all your own people, stop the two of you!"
When Lu Ge and the young man heard this, they each jumped away, one with a stunned face and the other with a grim expression. Lu Ge waved his knife and said: "Bai Shaoxia, you came just in time, this guy wants to buy our Jinsha Zhuyeqing, I refuse to sell it, he will play tricks, how can there be such a reason in the world?"
The young man sneered: "If you are used to being arrogant, others can't do it?"
Bai Yixue hugged her fists and said: "They are all good friends, misunderstanding, misunderstanding! Dare to ask Taifu?"
The young man was originally very hostile, but he didn't expect him to be so polite, so he hugged his fists slightly and said, "Please! ”
Bai Yixue said "ouch", there was no doubt in her heart, she stepped forward to bow down, and said: "It was really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family didn't know the family." The fourth brother please accept the worship of the younger brother. It turned out that before he went south, he had heard Master Hu Wanggui say that there were eight disciples under Lu Jingyin's seat, and one of them was Qin Fangpei, ranked fourth, and he was an outstanding and outstanding talent among the young generation of Cangjia Villa.
Qin Fangpei hurriedly bowed back, with a puzzled look on his face, and said, "Please forgive me for being clumsy, brother, you are ......."
The two stood up, and Bai Yixue grabbed Qin Fangpei's hands and said with a smile: "The little brother is from the Snow Mountain......
Qin Fangpei let out an "ouch" and laughed loudly: "It turns out to be Brother Duiyan! A few days ago, Master said that it was already late spring, so why hadn't there been any news from Hu Shibo? It turned out that Brother Dui Yan had already arrived in Jiangnan, and I was so clumsy. Sin, sin!"
Bai Yixue introduced him to Lu Ge at the moment, and the two just said that they didn't know each other, and laughed it off. Qin Fangpei learned that the four altars of Jinsha and Zhuyeqing were originally a gift from Bai Yixue to his teacher, and he laughed even more, and even said that he was ashamed.
Qin Fangpei and Bai Yixue walked side by side towards Cangjia Villa, followed by Lu Ge and others. Qin and Bai both had many doubts in their hearts, and the two talked eloquently along the way, and finally clarified all kinds of misunderstandings in between.
It turned out that a few months ago, Lu Jingyin received a message that Liu Yi, the remnant of the pseudo-Qi, had quietly infiltrated Jiangnan, and wanted to bribe high-ranking officials with heavy profits to induce some Jiangnan martial arts people to help him return to the country. Lu Jingyin thought that there were many people in the martial arts who were greedy for honor and profit, and this matter was not trivial, so he immediately sent the eight disciples under his seat to go down the mountain separately and intercept them when he saw the opportunity.
After Qin Fangpei went down the mountain, he inquired in many ways and learned that Liu Yi had gone to the main altar of the Love Sect and paid homage to Lao Muai, the leader of the Love Sect. He didn't dare to delay in the slightest, and hurried to the main altar of the love sect. Before he arrived at Leng Cuifeng, on the way, he inadvertently learned from the mouths of the Love Sect members that Liu Yi had been detained by Su Mianchou and locked up in the secret prison of the Love Sect.
Hearing is false, seeing is believing. Qin Fangpei wanted to reply to his master's order, so he disguised himself and sneaked into Leng Cui Peak several times to explore the truth on the spot. After some spying, he learned that Liu Yi and his subordinates were indeed detained in the Pillow Cloud Cave, but Su Mianchou detained Liu Yi, not out of Chu Nang's affection, but out of Liu's treasure.
Qin Fangpei inquired, but he didn't want to have an unexpected gain, that is, he found the whereabouts of Bi Hua in the Eight Sages of Shun Geng. He secretly observed for days, but felt that Bi Hua's behavior was secretive, and he repeatedly came to the Pillow Cloud Cave to investigate, so he guessed that the other party was Liu Yi's henchman. That day in the barren valley of Jinyun, Qin Fangpei tracked Bi Hua all the way, and was finally noticed by the other party. Qin Fangpei then provoked each other with words, learned the identity of the other party, and the two immediately started to move.
When Qin Fangpei said this, he turned his head to look at Bai Yixue, and his eyes showed confusion. Bai Yixue also told why she was mixed in the Eight Sages of Shungeng, and then followed them into the main altar of love and religion. The two talked all the way, very deed, and had a great feeling of seeing each other and hating each other, and their hearts were all unspeakable.
Bai Yixue sighed: "Fourth brother, the Mulberry Eagle is strong in martial arts and resourceful, this person escaped this time, it is tantamount to letting the tiger return to the mountain, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles." ”
Qin Fangpei smiled slightly and said, "The Mulberry Vulture is dead, so I don't have to worry about it." ”
Bai Yixue was taken aback and was speechless for a while. Qin Fangpei said that after he fought with the Mulberry Vulture, he thought that Shun Geng's Eight Saints had infiltrated Jiangnan together, and they must have come to rescue Liu Yi, so he should do his best to intercept it. It happened that he came to the foot of Leng Cui Peak that day, wandered in Yinlian Creek, and saw from a distance Tu Jiao, Gao Yu, Qian Tongshen and others preparing a ferry, waiting anxiously at the ferry, and their appearance was very suspicious.
Qin Fangpei grew up in Nanyandang, there are many wetlands and waterfalls in the mountains, and he has been playing in them since he was a child, and he is proficient in water. Seeing this, Qin Fangpei sneaked into Yinlian Creek, quietly came to the ferry, and hid at the bottom of the boat to eavesdrop on the conversation of Tu Jiao and the others. Qin Fangpei hid at the bottom of the ferry, waiting for the arrival of the mulberry vulture.
When Liu Yi, Sang Vulture and others came to the ferry and got on the boat to prepare to leave, Qin Fangpei jumped out of the water coldly and carried out a secret attack. What he didn't expect was that the Mulberry Eagle was seriously injured and his actions were stagnant, and when he was caught off guard, Qin Fangpei was able to succeed in one blow and stabbed the Mulberry Eagle in several key points, but he himself was also slapped on the chest by the Mulberry Eagle and suffered internal injuries.
Shen Yan and the others were all shocked when they saw someone rushing out of the water and suddenly casting cold arrows, and it was too late for everyone to save each other from the side. After Qin Fangpei succeeded, he didn't bother much and escaped into the water again. Shen Yan and the others were all born in the north, and they were strong but they didn't know how to go into the water, so how could they dare to go into the water easily? They stood on the boat and shouted and threw blades and hidden weapons, but they were all useless, and they watched Qin Fangpei fly away.
Bai Yixue heard this, and said happily: "Fourth brother, you have a famous hand to cover the sky, and Shun cultivates the first evil of the Eight Sages, this credit is really not small." He thought to himself: "The mulberry eagle was injured in the Pillow Cloud Cave by the dark night bleak attack, but everyone doesn't know how injured they are. In this way, he was seriously injured. Although this house is hateful, it has also done a good deed. ”
Qin Fangpei said: "Now that the country is poor and weak, and surrounded by strong enemies, thieves and rebellion are rampant, my generation should hold the heart of green liver and blood, swear to punish the enemy thief Kou Yun, and die." ”
Bai Yixue admired it in her heart and said, "The fourth brother is very right. ”
Qin Fangpei said: "You punished the evil in Leng Cuifeng, and helped Lao Mu Wai to quell the rebellion in the Love Sect, not only did you have a great contribution, but also became famous in the first battle, and it won't be long before it will spread on the rivers and lakes." Miao Ling is famous, and the fourth brother is happy for you. Besides, I can slash strong enemies, and I can't help my virtuous brother secretly. ”
Bai Yixue said with a smile: "The first evil is punished, how can the little brother plunder the beauty of people?" Thinking of the Mulberry Vulture with profound martial arts and great strategy, he was originally a well-known man, but he was loyal and rebellious, and he did not know right and wrong above the righteousness of the festival, and finally died in Jiangnan, and he was still scolded after his death, and he couldn't help but sigh. Then I thought about it, the rebel Liu Yi has become a fish that has slipped through the net, and the evil is inexhaustible, and I am afraid that there will be endless disasters, but the matter has come to this point, and there is nothing to do. Seeing that Qin Fangpei's complexion was not good, he asked, "Fourth brother, is your body fine?"
Qin Fangpei covered his chest and said with a wry smile: "The nickname of the mulberry eagle covers the sky with one hand, it is really good, even if I am seriously injured, this palm has made my abdomen like a river and a sea for several days, and my breath is not smooth." I'm afraid I'll have to lie down for ten days and a half months when I go back. ”
