Chapter 8 Entering Shaocheng at the beginning
The bandit boss watched their movements, he didn't expect that there was a hostage in his hand, and the man in black would dare to do it, if it wasn't for the empty phase to stop the long needle, I'm afraid he would have set foot on the Yellow Spring.
His face turned pale, and he shouted loudly: "Don't move anyone, I warn you again, whoever dares to move again, I will strangle her directly." ”
After saying that, she increased the force in her hand a little more, and Sister Qing's face turned red instantly, and it was difficult to breathe.
The empty minister shouted "Amitabha," and said, "Donor, even if you leave, don't hurt the life of the female donor." ”
The boss didn't say a word, staring at the empty phase and a few people, beware of any further changes from them.
Just as they stepped out of the threshold and were about to move away from the inn, a figure suddenly appeared behind the boss, staring intently ahead without noticing.
The second and third children were also staring intently at the situation in the inn without noticing, and the figure was the inn's second Lin San.
Lin San held a kitchen knife in his hand and raised it high, and slashed down the boss's back with a knife.
But he is just an ordinary person who has not practiced martial arts, and this knife does not have much strength, although the injury is not deep, but it is very effective.
The boss let out a wail in pain, and the pain behind him made his hands loosen, and Sister Qing got a chance to breathe.
The boss endured the pain and turned over and kicked Lin San, the second and third saw that the boss was injured, and they were also angry, and one person punched Lin San, and the strength of the three hit Lin San on the spot, Lin San flew out two feet away on the spot, lying on the ground and no longer moving, life and death are unknown.
Just as they were dealing with Lin San, Fan Yan rushed up and opened his bow left and right, hitting the second and third with two hands and two punches.
"Bang" Fan Yan was strong, and the two were knocked to the ground by Fan Yan's two punches, Lin Qingchen had the best light skills, rushed forward with a brisk step, broke the boss's right hand and took Sister Qing back, he put his hand on the pulse of Sister Qing's right hand to check if she was okay.
As soon as the boss saw that the situation was wrong, he turned around and was about to rush out of the door and flee from here, but how could Fan Yan let him escape.
Fan Yan rushed up and punched the boss in front of the door, and the boss was also punched by Fan Yan and lay on the ground, the second and third wanted to step forward to help but were slashed by the two palms of the empty phase and fainted in the back of the neck.
The boss fell to the ground, looked at Fan Yan, stared at him with his eyes tight, and spit out a mouthful of blood: "Today, our brother is planted, tell me which master you are, let me know in my heart." ”
"Tell you that I'm not afraid of Lao Tzu Boxing Sect Fan Yan," Fan Yan patted his chest and said loudly.
After the three thieves were dealt with by a few people in the empty phase, Sister Qing called someone to tie them up, and Lin San fainted and breathed.
Although he was hit by two punches and one kick, fortunately, he was not injured to the vital point, so it was fine, and Sister Qing asked someone to carry him to the guest room to rest.
was rescued by Lin Qingchen and a few people, Sister Qing exempted them from paying for food, and gave them a few jars of good wine and a few good dishes, although Lin Qingchen and they resigned, but they couldn't resist the enthusiasm of Sister Qing and accepted it.
When there was a fight in the inn, Xiao Er had already gone to report to the official, and the official arrived at the inn in less than a moment after Fan Yan and the others solved the three brothers.
The government sent more than a dozen hunters to arrest the three brothers, and there was also a team of well-equipped soldiers, and the battle was huge.
When he and the army rushed all the way here, they saw two black-clothed people and three bandits tied up in front of the inn.
The leader of the army wears black armor, a tiger-striped iron helmet, and a light armor with a lance in front.
He knew that the two men in black were the general's shadow rat guards, so it seemed that Gongzi was fine, so he ordered dozens of cavalrymen behind him to stand in two teams and stand outside the inn to stand by.
The soldiers behind him, one man and one horse, were all dressed in light armor, wearing uniform iron helmets, holding spears in their hands, and lined up in two columns.
The person led by the left team stood on the ground with a big flag in one hand, and a big tiger character was written on the red flag in black letters, which was the strongest cavalry battalion in the Shaocheng garrison Black Tiger.
The leader stuck the lance on the ground, turned over and dismounted, and watched the people of the government escort the three brothers to the yamen, and then one of them walked into the inn.
When you enter the inn, you can see that Childe is sitting on the second floor drinking and talking with a few people, and the man in cloth is standing aside and silent.
He walked up to the second floor in a few steps, saw the stairs on the second floor damaged by the fight, and probably could guess what had just happened.
When he came to Gongzi, he took off his helmet and knelt down on one knee, bowed his head and hugged his fists, and said: "Feng Qiu, the captain of the third team of the Black Tiger Battalion, was ordered by General Xu to rescue Gongzi, and the last one will ask Gongzi to surrender his guilt." ”
Brother Gongzi put down the wine glass and looked at the late lieutenant, he was not annoyed, he said: "When you arrived, this son should have been brought into the cottage a long time ago, fortunately, these knights will help you get up first." ”
Feng Qiu listened to Brother Gongzi's tone and didn't mean to blame, so he stood up and walked to the side, nodding slightly to the man in cloth to say hello.
Childe turned to the lark and said: "The lark and a few others are going to enter Shaocheng, it is better to take care of them on the road with us, and secondly, I want to entertain you well and thank you for saving your life." ”
Skylark thought for a while and said: "I think it's okay, after all, we are all going to enter the city, and General Xu has not seen him for a long time, and we must go to the meeting, just to disturb the son for a few days, what do you think." ”
"I think it's just right to take these little dolls around the city to see and learn," Fan Yan looked at the others after speaking, and the others also nodded in agreement, so the group left the inn after eating and set off.
Before leaving, the group went to a guest room on the third floor, where the proprietress Sister Qing was standing next to the bed, and Lin San was lying on the bed.
He has been treated, his upper body has been wrapped with gauze several times, the son looked at Lin San on the bed, and then looked at the proprietress and hugged his fists and said: "Today's things are all because of me Xu Mo, tomorrow I will ask someone to send silver taels to compensate for the loss of your inn, as well as this brother's healing expenses." ”
The proprietress Sister Qing didn't look back at Xu Mo, but just said softly: "Lin San, this kid usually has a sharp mouth, and he won't be lazy when he works, but he likes to gamble and his personality is still very good, I taught him to tell him not to gamble, otherwise he will be shouting in front of me every day to introduce his daughter-in-law to him, who will be willing to follow him, now it seems that this kid's mind is really good, fortunately, this time he just broke a few bones and did not fatally hurt, but this face was swollen, and it is estimated that he will not be able to recover in a month, alas, what a stupid boy." ”
After speaking, she turned her head and continued: "You guys are leaving, go, just send the silver, and other compensation will not be missing." ”
"This is something that must be done if I Xu Mo said it. ”
"You go, I won't send it. After hearing this, Xu Mo put away his hand and said goodbye, and several people walked out of the guest room together.
After the group walked out of the inn, the lark bought a horse from the inn, one horse for each person, and the lark took his apprentices on a horse, and the cavalry took the lead in front of the lark and the group set off in this way.
After Liu Yi and his party left the inn and set off, Sister Qing was still standing by the bed, looking at Lin San lying on the bed, but there was suddenly another person beside her.
The man suddenly appeared in the room like the wind, his long hair scattered haphazardly, and he wore a sackcloth-colored robe at random.
Sister Qing looked at Lin San and said: "You came back late, Lin San, this kid is quite courageous this time, he dares to cut when he picks up a kitchen knife, and he doesn't look at what others are cultivating for himself, hey, if you come back earlier, where can you let those people spread wild in the store." ”
The man listened to Sister Qing's words and looked at Lin San, then looked at Sister Qing and asked softly, "Does the pinch mark on my neck still hurt?" ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand and touched Sister Qing's neck, there were five finger prints on it that had not completely dissipated.
Sister Qing took his hand down, held it in her palm and said, "I'm fine, what are you going to do with this matter." ”
The man groaned and said, "I don't care if these people make a fuss in the inn, but they actually took you as a hostage, and there are also Xu Mo's subordinates who dare to take action when they see you being held hostage, these people will die! ”
The man said and looked at Lin San and continued to smile and said: "Daughter-in-law, we are not young anymore, and I should teach my skills to pass it on, so let's have a child in the future and go back to the countryside to live." ”
Sister Qing couldn't help but blushed slightly and said: "you, it's up to you to deal with it, just pay attention to the secret, Lin San, this kid can also let him endure hardships and learn more skills, otherwise if you think about finding a daughter-in-law every day, you can bet when you will be able to start a family." ”
The man said, "Don't worry, I'll go to do things first, you take a good look at the store." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was no trace of him in the room, and Sister Qing sighed lightly and muttered, "Hey, it's always so elusive." ”
With a slight smile helplessly, she also walked out of the room and closed the door.
Shaocheng is the main city of Fuzhou of Jiangguo, with an area of 100 square kilometers, surrounded by a stone wall ten zhang high and solid and thick, surrounded by a moat outside the city, and only four gates can be entered and exited by a suspension bridge in the southeast and northwest.
Nandaemun South Street is very lively at this time, snacks from all over the world, all kinds of costumes, jewelry, rouge, etc., and all kinds of things, are sold in various stalls on South Street, and basically everything can be bought on this South Street.
The pedestrians on the street are also crowded, bustling and lively, today is the day of the market, so the number of people coming and going in the city is huge, and the defense is twice as many people as usual.
Twenty people stood in a row by the city wall to prevent changes, and there were a total of ten people on the left and right to check the people entering and leaving, and there was a patrol on the city wall five steps and one person.
When Liu Yi and his party were about to approach the moat bridge, they slowed down and followed the slowly advancing crowd towards the city.
The group walked to the edge of the suspension bridge, Liu Yi looked up at the city, the huge and towering city wall shocked his heart, this was the first time he had seen such a tall building.
On the top of the towering city wall, five steps and one post stood on the battlements, looking down, the moat was a few feet wide, and the river was turbulent and turbulent.
The group walked on the bridge, Liu Yi didn't dare to look at the river again, the bridge was too far away from the river, and this height made him a little scared.
The bridge is connected by chains, and the castle is controlled by a drawbridge, which is wooden but strong enough.
When the group came to the city gate, the soldiers who were checking saw Xu Mo and his party immediately knelt down and clasped their fists and saluted, and the others automatically gave way for Xu Mo and the others to enter the city.
The group entered the South Street from the South Gate, and Liu Yi and several teenagers were attracted by the scene in front of them at a glance, countless snacks on both sides of the street, rock sugar gourd, roasted chicken cakes, and so on.
The stalls are placed on the roadside, the smell of snacks is overflowing, the taverns and teahouses have sheds set up outside, people drink tea and laugh under the sheds, and the women are even more warblers and warblers and swallows on the rouge stalls to choose rouge silk and chat about the interesting stories in the city.
There was enough width in the middle of the street for the horses to march, and after entering the city, Xu Mo asked Feng Qiu to go back to his life.
Feng Qiu's team of cavalry was too eye-catching in front, anyway, Feng Qiu's task of escorting them into the city had been completed, so he saluted Xu Mo and took the troops back to his camp.
The group walked out not long after walking into South Street, but there were a lot of things in their hands, Liu Yi and the teenagers were holding a string of sugar gourds, and Fan Yan was holding roast chicken and wine in his hands, and his mouth was full of smiles.
Walking on the street on a horse, the lark said to Xu Mo: "Childe laughed at these little dolls for the first time to come to this kind of big city, and they were a little greedy. ”
Xu Mo smiled and said: "It's not in the way, it's human nature to eat, let them go, they can buy whatever they want to eat, and the cost can be wrapped on Xu Mo." ”
Xu Mo finished speaking. The lark also laughed and did not refuse, Xu Mo then said: "My father has always been very yearning for the mystery of the Tai Chi Sect exercises, the last time I went to the Tai Chi Sect with my father to visit, I had a relationship with the Taoist of the lark, I think it has been a few years since now, today the Taoist rescued Xu Mo is really fate, I will meet my father with me later, and I must be very happy to see the Taoist master coming." ”
Skylark smiled and said: "Gongzi is serious, General Xu is the commander of the first army, thanks to the general's love, the old man is naturally very willing to exchange cultivation experience with General Xu." Xu Mo said with a smile: "Hahaha, I hope that the Dao Chief can teach a few tricks, Xu Mo will be of infinite use, and the Dao Chang will be almost there." ”
