Chapter 25: Robbery

The sun is getting bigger and bigger, and it is getting hotter and hotter, Li Moru is already sweating all over, he took off his coat, tied his horse to the side, and kept staring at the surrounding movements, thinking that those bandits would come out quickly, so that he could try his skills.

He picked a deserted forest to rest, the breeze passed through the woods, and the sweat on his back blew through the wind, which was much cooler.

Li Moru was carrying a wine gourd to drink water, and at this time, suddenly a few people came in front of him, and there were more than a dozen of them in a group, with hats to shade the sun, dressed in black, and they all carried weapons.

And from a long distance, Li Moru could feel that these people knew martial arts, and looking at their appearance, they should have been on the road for a long time, but they didn't feel out of breath like ordinary people at all.

And one of them is light-footed, and at first glance he has some internal skills, otherwise he would not have reached this level.

Li Moru's first reaction was that these people were the gang of thieves that the shopkeeper said, he hurriedly put on his clothes, held a long sword, and stared at the people who came with a fierce look on his face.

Li Moru didn't know what a thief should be, but he remembered that the shopkeeper surnamed Chen he met when he went to the mine mountain ore range, and when he took people to find Li Moru to teach them a lesson, he was dressed in black and holding a sword.

Therefore, Li Moru subconsciously thinks that this kind of person who is dressed in black, and covers his face with a hat, is not a good person at first glance.

When those people saw the man holding the long sword on the side with a fierce look on his face, they couldn't help but be vigilant.

The man in the black robe led by him was about to ask Li Moru's identity when Li Moru's long sword came out and stabbed at the man.

Due to the headwind, Li Moru used the magpie stepping branch to look like a jealous and hateful white-clothed sword immortal, and the black-clothed man who took the lead threw the hat and began to kill towards the place where Li Moru flew from with a big knife.

The others stood still, always feeling that the person who came could not have come alone, but that there must be someone else in ambush nearby.

Several of them began to turn their backs to the wagon, keeping an eye out of the surrounding area to prevent the enemy from coming out of the area.

I don't know how to drop, usually people will let them report their homes first, although they are not a big faction, but they still have some reputation in the rivers and lakes, how can they give them three points of thin noodles, but the people who come today don't seem to talk about any rules in the rivers and lakes, and they don't want to say anything and start moving.

Li Moru and the man met in the air, and with a bang, the man in black and Li Moru retreated, but the man in black stabilized his body more slowly.

He muttered in his heart: Why does this person look young, but he has such a deep internal strength, and his swordsmanship is also very exquisite, and he doesn't look like an ordinary thief.

Although it was only a short confrontation, the man in black had already clearly felt the strength of the martial arts of the comer, and he was by no means an opponent.

He stabilized his body and didn't plan to fight again, because he knew that if he fought again, he would lose within ten moves, and he glanced at the gap in his knife.

I am still wondering in my heart, when did such a person appear on the rivers and lakes, and what is even more strange is that it seems that he and this young man have met for the first time, and it seems that he rarely has enemies with others, where did this enemy come from?

And from this young man's light skills and moves, as well as his dress, it is impossible to tell which rookie is at all, and if he is really a person in the rivers and lakes at this age, he has already become famous, how can he not understand the rules of the rivers and lakes at all, and he will raise his sword to each other without saying anything

He thought, could this young man be here to rob, right? The problem is that his dart is not very precious, and it is worthy of some great sect.

The man in black raised his hand to signal Li Moru not to attack first, he held his sword in both hands and bowed his hand and said, "I don't know if Your Excellency is a friend on that road, where did we provoke friends?" ”

Li Moru said with a smile: "Bandits and robbers like you, what else is there to say, naturally everyone will be punished." ”

The man in black couldn't help but smile, he repeatedly looked at himself, he couldn't see where he looked like a thief, he smiled: "This brother dares to recognize the wrong person, Chen Yuanshan of the Longsheng Dart Bureau is not a thief in the mouth of the little brother." ”

When Li Moru heard this, he asked: "What is the dart game? Dare to love that you are not a thief, so why do you dress up like a thief?"

Chen Yuanshan couldn't laugh or cry, he really couldn't see how his brothers were similar to the bandits, so that this young swordsman misunderstood him as a bandit, could it be that the bandits in this area were so rich?

The dart master behind Chen Yuanshan saw that the chief dart head was arguing with this young man, and when he heard the words of the argument, he realized that this was a misunderstanding, and they didn't know where they were like the bandits, and they also had the same question as Chen Yuanshan, are the bandits in this area already so rich?

Li Moru saw Chen Yuanshan and the others looking at each other, he knew that he really misunderstood these people, and quickly put away his sword and smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, brother, I misunderstood you, I apologize to you here." ”

Chen Yuanshan said with a smile: "The little brother is serious, just after a short fight with the little brother, you can feel that the little brother is extraordinary, I don't know what school and sect, who is the teacher?"

Li Moru thought about it, he really didn't know what school he was taught from, how to answer this question, would he be a little embarrassed if he couldn't answer it?

He touched his head, the hosta on his head was given to him by Mr. Mo, and he suddenly remembered what Mr. Mo said about the leisurely trip, at this time, he made up a sect and replied: "The next is the Xiaoyao faction, and the master is called Xiaoyaozi." ”

After finishing speaking, he also brought two modest words, "It's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning." ”

Chen Yuanshan thought about it, and thought that he had never heard of such a sect and such a person, but the rivers and lakes are so big, there are no surprises, maybe they are some kind of sect that is not born, anyway, if they can teach such a disciple, they must be a super-first-class sect.

He said: "Although I haven't heard of it, I must be a great sect and a great master to be able to hand over a young and promising young man like Little Brother." ”

Li Moru nodded and said, "This is true, my master is the most amazing person in the world." ”

Chen Yuanshan asked, "I don't know where the little brother wants to go?"

Li Moru replied: "I was originally going to the land of Sichuan and Shu, but now I want to go to Yangzhou first, this is not in the back of the inn I heard that bandits are rampant in this area, and I want to eliminate harm for the people, and I happened to meet you, so there was this misunderstanding." ”

Chen Yuanshan said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, as the saying goes, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, our trip is going to Chuzhou, just passing through Yangzhou, if the little brother doesn't mind, we can go the same way." ”

Li Moru smiled: "You also want to go to Yangzhou, that's right, let's go together, I'm bored all the way, not only no one speaks, but I can't even meet a thief." ”

The dart master in the back was all amazed when he heard Li Moru's words, he was really a newborn cow and was not afraid of tigers, this kind of thing could be said.

So Li Moru traveled with Chen Yuanshan and others and rushed to Yangzhou together.

In fact, Li Moru is also selfish, he has just come out of the rivers and lakes, there are many things, many things he doesn't understand, and he doesn't even know what the dart game is.

So he chose to go with Chen Yuanshan, so that he could talk to him on the way, learn more about the things on the rivers and lakes, and don't make the same mistake now, it's really embarrassing.

Li Moru walked together with the Longsheng Dart Bureau in this way.

In the process of walking together, Li Moru learned from Chen Yuanshankou that the dart game was first established in the Sui Dynasty, although there was some small development in the Tang Dynasty, but the development was not large.

Even in the Great Song Dynasty, there are very few dart games, and their Longsheng dart game is one of them.

Although the dart game is not very common, but after all, the dart masters are all people in the rivers and lakes, so the people in the rivers and lakes will generally give a face, as long as the etiquette of worshiping the mountain is in place, they will not be embarrassed.

Moreover, Li Moru also learned about the basic Jianghu sects in Chen Yuanshan, such as the Qingcheng faction, the beggar gang, the Dadaomen, the Zhongyi Hall, the Shenjian faction, the Huashan faction, the Shanlin faction, and the three sects of Taoism, which have always been relatively mysterious.

After Li Moru heard what he said, he felt that he was simply an eye-opener, it turned out that the rivers and lakes were so big, it was simply beyond his expectations, and he looked forward to his life in the rivers and lakes even more.

At night, because they couldn't find the inn, they camped in the wild, and several of the people in the dart bureau were soldiers before, so they would simply set up tents.

It's a tent, but it's just a simple way to cut some branches from the nearby jungle, tie them up casually, and put the cowhide on the cart.

But it is indeed indispensable for them to travel from south to north for a dart master, who often eats and sleeps in the open, if they don't know this tent, they will really be made of quilts as a feast.

Everyone was warming up around the fire, and somehow, today's evening breeze was much cooler than before, not at all like spring, but like the cold wind of autumn, and fortunately there was this simple tent, otherwise it would really freeze to death.

The spring breeze is bleak, and I don't know where so many dark clouds came from today, and the woods that are not very bright in the first place, are even darker now.

From time to time, there is an explosion of wet wood burning in the firewood, which is small but often accompanied by sparks.

The wind was blowing through the woods, and it was loud, as if there was something to hide.

At this moment, out of nowhere, there was a sudden sound of broken horses' hooves, in addition to the sound of horses' hooves, there was also a strange scream, which was simply infiltrating.

Chen Yuanshan hurriedly picked up the big knife in his hand, and the six precepts of the dart master - quit the weapon and leave the body, whether it is walking on the road or staying in the hotel to rest, the weapon must be carried with the body just in case.

Li Moru saw the change in the expression on Chen Yuanshan's face and knew that something big must be happening.

Sure enough, as soon as they left the tent, more than a dozen torches appeared around them, and the swords in the firelight were dangling in front of their eyes.

A man dressed in a tiger skin coat with a beard on his face rode on a horse, and a large knife in his hand was very penetrating in the light of the fire.
