Volume 1 The Long Night in the Sky Chapter 77 Saving and Killing People on the Northbound Road
Changqing originally just wanted to be an ordinary person who was innocently passing by, so he saw the situation of blocking the road and robbing, but he was not willing to delay his trip for this, but there are always exceptions to everything, this exception is like the kind of protagonist in the drama book, no matter where he goes, the good and the bad will always be met by him, Changqing doesn't feel that his life like this is a hero, if so, then the author is either crazy or stupid, so when the roadblock bandit told him to stop, he stopped slightly, and his thick eyebrows frowned into a mountain.
But he walked slowly over anyway
.......
Changqing has no resistance to such a thing as chivalry, but he doesn't like it much, he doesn't have the grand ideals of some young people from the first day he holds a sword, at first, for him, the sword in his hand is to dance for a person.
And now, his sword is more about keeping himself alive, so that he can live longer and go farther in this world, and sometimes when he wants to say something, it is enough to make the other party listen to what he says.
And this time, it didn't take long for Changqing to draw his sword and then to collect it.
Looking at Yu Qiang, the bandit head lying on the ground and moaning, Changqing said angrily:
"I said, I'm just passing by......"
Yu Qiang's face was covered with a huge lump, so his speech was a little slurred:
"There are a lot of heroes, don't be like us. ”
Changqing looked at the mountain bandits lying on the ground, and felt a little funny in his heart, but judging from the reactions of these people, it seemed that they were not bad people in the real sense, so he didn't hurt their lives just now.
At this time, he suddenly thought of something, so he stepped forward and took the water bladder and a bag of dried meat from Yu Qiang's waist.
With Changqing's action, more than a dozen bandits got up from the ground, took the initiative to untie the water bladder on their waists and the dry food they brought with them, and handed them to Changqing as if flattering.
Looking at the distance, a pair of grandchildren were dumbfounded.
Changqing casually took a few water bladders and cloth bags containing dry food, and looked up to signal that Yu Qiang, who was the leader, could take people away.
When the mountain bandits came, they were violent, as if the men who had been hungry for several months saw the woman of Fengyun, and when they left, they all hung their heads, as if they had taken off their pants and found that something was not working.
After these people left, Changqing turned around and threw two water bags and a bag of dry food to the old man.
The old man took the thing, and he was not polite, and happily poured most of the loan water on the spot, and his cloudy eyes were a little bright.
Then he took out a hard bun from the bag and handed it to his granddaughter, then slowly walked to Changqing, raised his hand and said:
"Thank you for the help of the knight, if it weren't for the knight today, the old man's life would have been lost, and the child would have fallen into the tiger's mouth, I really don't know, how to explain to her parents when I got to the spring. ”
Changqing looked at the old man who had given him water, not that he helped because of that little bit of water, because with Changqing's eyes that he was no longer a born calf, this group of mountain bandits probably wouldn't do anything to this pair of grandchildren.
Changqing smiled and said:
"Where are the old people going to take their children. ”
The old man wiped the sweat from his head, which mixed with the dust on his face, making his sleeves even darker.
He turned around and beckoned to his pigtailed granddaughter, who slowly walked over with the corners of her clothes.
The old man introduced:
"The old man Ji Youfu in Beilu Prefecture, this is my granddaughter Ji Yuerong, this time the family is in trouble, so I took a risk, wanting to go to the wasteland to hide from the enemy. ”
Changqing nodded, "Enemy?" Changqing always felt that what this person said was not true.
But there's nothing wrong with walking outside.
"You're going to the wasteland? ”
Ji Youfu nodded, looked at his young granddaughter Ji Yourong, and said with an embarrassed face:
"I also know that it is not a place for people, but if you don't leave, alas, it will be difficult. ”
"Don't talk about the old man's foolishness, but where is the son going, there is no walled city ahead. ”
Changqing smiled slightly, "I'm going to the north." ”
The old man said suspiciously:
"My north is already the northernmost place, and the young man is going to the north, this is ......"
Changqing smiled and hung the water and food he had snatched from the mountain bandits around his waist, and prepared to continue north. It's just that out of the corner of his eye, he glimpsed that Ji Yourong seemed to have something to say, and the little girl looked like she wanted to say something, as if she was considering the language on her lips, Changqing simply turned to look at her, but in this way, the girl's dark face was painted with a touch of pink morning glow.
Ji Youfu noticed that his granddaughter was abnormal, smiled and patted the girl's back, and then she mustered up her courage and stretched out a small fist.
Changqing looked at her suspiciously, and the girl's five fingers seemed to suddenly bloom in an epiphany.
It was a brown brown sugar cube, it was estimated that the girl had been holding it in her hand for too long, the sugar cube melted slightly, and the moment her fingers opened, she pulled out a few strands of sugar, and the girl's face turned even redder.
The half-melted brown sugar shimmered in the faint sunlight.
Of course, the semi-melted brown sugar is not as good as the orange candy of the famous store in Cangzhou.
A swarthy girl is not as good as a little junior sister in a pink dress.
But obviously this brown sugar is more down-to-earth, after all, this brown sugar may be the most precious thing in this child.
Changqing smiled gently, then reached out and touched her pigtails.
The girl buried her head lower.
......
In the distance, there was a sound of horses' hooves, a heavy and sonorous sound like a copper hammer falling on the drum cloth, with the unique rhythm of the cavalry, from this rhythm you can hear the strict military discipline and iron blood, in fact, as early as under the nameless old tree, Changqing heard this very rhythmic sound, but at that time, he didn't know who this cavalry was coming for, he didn't know so he didn't care, and then he took a bowl of water, and then he didn't go to pick up the candy, but the heart was more important than anything else.
Changqing suddenly spoke:
"Old man, if you want, you can go with me for a while, the wasteland is dangerous after all. ”
The meaning of Changqing's words couldn't be clearer.
The old man was originally happy, but the cavalry that was getting closer and closer came too quickly, and the old man did not have time to answer, and he found the cavalry.
His face turned pale, he shook his head, took a deep breath and said:
"To tell you the truth, those cavalry soldiers are all coming for my grandfather and grandson, and the reason is that it is difficult to come one by one at this time. But the old man knew that the young man was a good person, so he had a reluctant request, and hoped that the young man could take away the old man's granddaughter, and the old man died today without regrets. ”
Ji Yuerong held her grandfather's hand tightly, just shaking her head, but the old man shook off his granddaughter's hand, his dark robe was full of holes, he stepped forward step by step, facing the wind and sand, facing the tiger and wolf cavalry, and said loudly:
Although the people in the secluded land do not care much about the poetry of the sages, most of the peaches and plums of the old man are butchers and traders who have only learned their names, but the old man I am a scholar in the end, and the man has gold under his knees. Hurry up, I will delay for a moment. ”
The cavalry in the distance had already reached a close distance, and Changqing slowly walked to the old man's side and said with a smile:
"Since Mr. Ji is a scholar, then he should live even more, and it is always good to teach more people to read. ”
As soon as Changqing's words fell, before the old man could speak, the people had already walked towards those cavalry.
......
The Tiger Camp in Shanliang Prefecture, the time-honored battalion of the Northern Cavalry Army, has strict military discipline, the leader is only in his early thirties, and is a member of the Tiger Battalion Lieutenant, when the Tiger Battalion received the secret order, he was also present, the old lieutenant's face sank like water that day, and he killed the three lieutenants with his own hands, because they were all involved in that incident, or secretly provided convenience, or walked back and forth in the open, and the news that the Shanliang Tiger Camp got was that the starry night rushed to the neighboring Beilu Prefecture to wipe out the chaotic party, and he couldn't understand how these chaotic parties had such powerful means, even they who were far away in Shanliang Prefecture would be infiltrated, so everyone in the Tiger Camp held a breath in their hearts, there is no mercy for those who are implicated in the rebellion.
But in the end, there are still fish that slip through the net, such as this Ji Youfu, it was he who provided help when the vassal king was downtrodden and served the common people, and even used the vassal king as a teacher in his private school, what the whole world didn't dare to do, you did, what the whole world shouldn't do, you did it, it was you who helped the vassal king to survive in the most difficult time, and this is what everything this autumn has.
So when he saw Changqing coming towards the cavalry, he naturally classified Changqing as a chaotic party.
Long-term cooperation does not need to be said by the main general, the left and right sides are divided into four horses, the momentum is calm and a clamp on the horse's belly, accelerate out of the battle, and rush to Changqing, these long-term hard training cavalry every action is just right, the fierce running of the North Youma, the strong muscles are rhythmic like the ripples of the lake, and the dark brown mane is tightly pressed on the horse's back by the wind.
The two horsemen at the front took the lead in making a knife, and this kind of long knife used as a cavalry horse to chop is called the full moon, which means that the long knife of the north can swing a big sword under the night sky, which is named after the full moon.
The two long knives were split wide open and closed on the left and right sides, and relying on the impact of the horses under their crotches, the two horsemen were confident that the moment the blades touched, the weak white-faced boy in front of them would definitely turn into a puddle of flesh and blood.
The evergreen qi machine that was originally slowly moving forward gushed out from under his feet, and a big pit suddenly appeared on the ground, and under this huge thrust, the body deftly penetrated from the gap between the two knives, and the body suddenly twisted in mid-air, and the long sword on his waist was like a pitch-black ink snake, suddenly stabbing into the abdomen of the left horseman, and the body bumped into the knight behind him with force, and the huge Beiyou horse soared into the air with four hooves, and when he took off, his body still tried to gallop forward, but the air would not provide him with any assistance.
So the huge horse rolled backwards with the man of the horse mountain several times, and the huge body of the horse crushed the horseman on the horse into a pile of debris.
The horse that was stabbed by Changqing fell to the ground softly after stepping forward a few meters, and the horseman on the horse quickly vacated, rolled several times in a row, and after unloading his strength, he threw away the riding knife Full Moon, pulled out the scimitar at his waist, and rushed towards Changqing with an arrow step.
After Changqing landed, he rose into the air again to avoid the two horses that followed him, grabbed the handle of the long knife of one of the horses with his wrist, and dragged the horse rider off the horse.
And when the cavalry who lost his war horse rushed forward with a scimitar, Changqing's sword stirred up a thousand waves, and the blood and flesh of the cavalry were blurred with sword qi.
The remaining rider did not retreat from this, and watched the death of his colleague, but aroused his own blood, and turned back with a clamp on the horse's belly, and sprinted again.
Changqing shook the blood on the sword, rushed forward, and faced the horse, with a loud bang, Changqing blocked the long knife with a sword, and then bombarded the horse's neck with a fist with his left hand in an extremely domineering way.
But under such a threat, he still chose to use a yellow fist, the horse's neck quickly sunken, and the violent strength caused the flesh and blood around him to burst out and scatter in all directions.
The cavalry who landed on the ground fell to the ground hard, and a crisp cracking sound came from between his necks, and Changqing walked over slowly, and in his painful gaze, the blade of the sword slashed across his neck.
After doing all this, Changqing slowly turned around and looked at the cavalry of the remaining fifteen people.
On Yangguan Road, the needle drop can be heard for a while.
Ji Youfu had already pulled Ji Yuerong into his arms and covered her eyes, but Ji Youfu, who was also shocked by the scene in front of him, trembled slightly, and between his fingers, a pair of smart eyes looked intently at the young man holding the black sword, and there was a fanaticism brewing in his eyes.
.......
The captain who was the leader slowly exhaled a breath and put down the mask on his face, Changqing saw a calm face, but it was too cold, and the man slowly spoke:
"I admit that you are a powerful martial artist, I don't know which sect you come from, I don't care about these, but I don't know why you chose to side with the chaotic party today, but I want to warn you, there is only a grassless Heavenly Dome Wasteland ahead, you go there
There is only one way to die, if you surrender now, I can't say about the two chaotic parties, but you, young man, are in great need of talents like you in the Beiyou Army. ”
Changqing was slightly stunned, it has reached the point of not dying, you actually started trading on the spot, Changqing shook his head, and said with a smile:
"I'm going into the wilderness, and I'm going to go all the way north. ”
The knight shook his head regretfully and said:
"I can let you go into the wasteland, you will only die there, if you can't survive there and return to Beiyou, then my Shanliang Prefecture Tiger Camp will definitely cut off your heads when you set foot on the Shanliang Land Realm. ”
When the cavalry had finished speaking, he stopped talking, but stood still and waited.
Changqing slowly put away his sword, walked in front of the grandson, and left softly.
The two of them, who had just come back to their senses, followed Changqing in a wooden manner, and the three of them slowly headed north.
On the side of the tiger camp, there was a cavalry soldier who said indignantly:
"General, let them go like this, and we've got four dead brothers. ”
The lieutenant raised his horsewhip and said coldly:
"That person's martial arts are extremely high, if they are an enemy, I am afraid that we will suffer too much, not to mention, they will definitely not survive the Heavenly Dome Wasteland, even if they are lucky enough to survive, they will definitely not be able to get out of the Northern Darkness alive, in this way, what is the difference between them and death. ”
