Chapter 10, Section 18 The Treasure Sword is Immortal Situ Chao
The tall man in gray dealt with Du Qianyuan and turned his head to look at Situ Chao. The previous leader of the martial arts alliance had already killed the three brocade guards cleanly, only a hundred households, second-rate martial arts, really not enough in Situ Chao's eyes.
"Hurry up and keep going!"
Situ said loudly to the two gray-clothed men and Mu Cheng and the others, and after speaking, he used his sword to kill the more than twenty brocade-clothed guards who rushed over in a swarm.
In addition to embroidering spring knives, the sleeve crossbow is also their signature configuration, more than 20 people raised their arms together, pulled the trigger in an instant, and dozens of crossbow arrows shot towards Situ Chao.
Although the power of this Xiuzhen-type crossbow is far less than the repeater that everyone has used before, it should not be underestimated.
Situ Chao, the man in gray, Mu Cheng, Yang Lian, Wang He and the six of them performed small kung fu, dodging and moving, trying to avoid the arrows, and the few injured people in the back directly lay on the ground to dodge.
The two gray-clothed men also waited for an opportunity to play a few hidden weapons to kill and injure several brocade guards. Situ Chao jumped up early and landed between the Jinyi guards, his left hand "whirlwind breaking jade palm", his right hand "cold star dotted jade sword", everywhere he went, Jinyi Wei fell to the ground, two or three breaths, the gray-haired old guy had already killed more than 20 people.
"The predecessor sword is not old, congratulations!"
The tall man in gray arched his hand.
This is the "bloody sword" Situ Chao, who made the black and white famous discoloration on the rivers and lakes more than ten years ago, and finally saw the demeanor of this martial arts legend today.
"Thanks to the two of you today, the person Xiao Xian's nephew likes is really unique!"
Situ Chao was also amazed by these two gray-clothed men.
Now that his identity has been revealed, the man in gray simply tore off the masked towel on his face, revealing two young faces, and the slightly shorter one was actually a woman.
These two people are Tian Qing and Gu Ruxiu, who set off one step ahead of Xiao Fei.
"The seniors have won awards, which is within the responsibility of the younger generations. ”
Tian Qing hurriedly responded, he really couldn't deserve the gratitude of this martial arts senior.
"Polite words on the way, let's hurry and set off. ”
Situ Chao did not change his resolute temperament, did not have politeness, and ordered everyone to lead the horses of Jinyiwei and move forward again.
There were only nine men left on this journey, and some of them fell under the arrows, and there was no time to mourn, and the sound of horses' hooves hurriedly disappeared into the valley of dawn.
The last valley was submerged in the dust raised by the horses' hooves, and Situ Chao did not feel much relaxed, because the strength of his side was weakened more and more. Although the shots of Tian Qing, who have first-class skills, can help him reduce a lot of burden, but Situ Chao knows their details, and he can't expect the two young people from the killer to help him much in a head-to-head confrontation.
Mu Cheng suffered a loss in light skills, when he had just encountered the renegade Jinyi Guard, he failed to dodge the crossbow arrow in time, and his left shoulder and right leg were injured, coupled with the previous injury, he can now exert his second-rate medium strength is already good. Wang He and Yang Lian were also injured, while Wei Bi and Chen Zhu had already been seriously injured because of their impulsive actions before, and the four of them could no longer form a formation, which also caused Situ Chao to lose another killer weapon in his hands.
I hope that Leng Qiuhe and the prince's plan can succeed, and I also hope that Situ Shenjian and Zhou Lingfeng, who have fallen behind, are safe and sound. At this time, it is time to start the second part of the plan, and my gang has almost completed the first phase of the mission, and it will no longer be as eye-catching as before. Although the group of brocade guards has all been ambushed, the fact that the prince and the two are not on their side will definitely not be hidden for long, and it is time to make changes to preserve their strength.
Just as Situ Chao slowed down his horse, lowered his head and pondered, he quickly ran past three horses from the side of the mountain road, and everyone didn't even have time to react, they should have already hidden on the left, otherwise they should have been able to hear the sound of horses' hooves.
"Brother Situ, it's been a long time!"
Immediately jumped down three people, all in their fifties, and the eldest person at the head greeted Situ Chao with a fist.
"Oh, Shen Darthead. Situ Chao knew this person, "I have been fine for more than ten years?"
"Thank you Brother Situ for your concern, the foolish brother's body is quite tough. Brother Mu is also here, fortunately!"
After Shen Dangtou said hello, he introduced the people around him to Situ Chao, "This is the owner of Liu Kun and Liu Zhai of Sihua Village in front, and the other is the owner of Shenqiu Shen Zhuang of Baoding Mansion in Hebei Province, which is considered to be a younger brother of the lower clan." ”
"Luckily!"
Situ Chao, Mu Cheng and other people who were still in good health also dismounted one after another, and returned the salute with their fists in unison.
"I've seen Brother Situ, I've seen Elder Mu, I've seen you!"
"I don't know what the three of you are doing here?"
Mu Cheng asked behind Situ Chao, his abduction gun finally had another use, and it was really used as a crutch.
"Before next month, I heard that Brother Situ posted a heroic post in the Northland, recruiting heroes from all over the country to help," Shen Dangtou said with a ashamed face, "However, the lower body is in Baoding, the mountains are high and the road is far away, and there are trivial matters at home, so I can't move for a while, so I can only hope that Brother Situ and his party will have a smooth journey." Recently, the younger brother estimated that it was time for you to pass by here, so he asked his brother Shen Qiu and his friend Brother Liu to wait here day and night. God pity me, I finally waited for you!"
"There are three of you, thank you Shen Dart for your hard work!"
After listening to Shen Dart's words, Situ Chao responded with no saltiness, Mu Cheng also frowned slightly, just after experiencing the scene of Jinyi Wei drawing swords against each other, they became more and more suspicious of the Shen family brothers and Liu Kun's intentions, even if Shen Dart's words were affectionate.
"It seems that it's still too late," Shen Dangtou looked at Situ Chao and the other nine people, especially the two gray-clothed masked people in the middle and back, and said with a sigh, "A few of you have worked hard all the way, and you can empathize with you! I regret that I didn't rush to the north in time!"
"Shen Dart's head is serious, Situ Chao's old bones are very hard, not anyone can handle it!"
Situ Chao is Situ Chao, and the words of comfort have become arrogant in his mouth.
"Brother Situ is still as iron-clad as he was back then, and his righteousness is thin and cloudy," Shen Dart hugged his fists and said, "Foolish brother admires it tightly! It seems that in a few days, my brother's name of 'Bloody Sword' should shine on the rivers and lakes again!"
"A little bit of fame, it's not worth Shen Dart's praise like this, it's over-awarded. ”
The more the other party said, Situ Chaoyue was cautious.
"Situ Daxia, everyone," Liu Kun, the owner of Sihua Village, took two steps forward and hugged his fists, "Look at all the dusty servants, I think it is because after a series of fierce battles, and I have been in a hurry, and several colleagues are injured." Not far ahead is where my Sihua Village is, why don't you enjoy your face and go to the cold house to rest, so that the little brother can also do the friendship of the landlord?"
"This ......"
Mu Cheng turned his head to look at Situ Chao.
"I may have to live up to the hospitality of Lord Liu Zhai, and I really don't dare to delay when I am in the middle of an important matter. ”
Situ Chao first turned his head slightly to glance at the two gray-clothed masked men behind him, and after a little thought, he replied apologetically.
"Eh, Brother Situ, you and I have been friends for twenty or thirty years, and I don't give this thin face, well!" Shen Dart took a few steps forward, stretched out his hand to hold the reins of Situ Chao's mount, and said with a haha, "My brother Liu Xian and my own brother Shen Qiu have always admired you and Elder Mu, let's go to Sihua Village to sit for a while, Brother Liu Xian will also prepare a banquet, and a few injured friends can take this opportunity to deal with their wounds!"
"Please also ask Situ Daxia to give our brother this opportunity to make up for the lack of being able to go to the Northland in time to help out!"
Shen Qiu, who was at the end, also stepped forward and said.
"Situ Daxia is full of glory!" Liu Kun, who was beside Shen Dangtou, said as if pleading, "Being able to drink a glass of water and wine with heroes like Situ Daxia and Elder Mu is really the greatest blessing for Liu in his life, I implore you to give me a chance next time!"
Stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, the characters on the rivers and lakes all pay attention to a face, Situ Chao and Mu Chengdu can't put on a suitable reason to reject them, once they really say it to death, so that Shen Dart, who is quite famous in the northern martial arts, can't come to the stage, and in the future, if you don't see you looking down, you can't communicate anymore. Moreover, these three people have not shown obvious hostility so far, but their own group really can't delay, and in the face of these people with unknown intentions, Situ Chao and the others can't tell the truth, and for a while, Situ Chao and Mu Cheng, who took the lead, fell into a dilemma.
Shen Darthead glanced at his brother, and Shen Qiu also walked forward to catch the reins in Mu Cheng's hand, "Elder Mu, Senior Mu, you can do it well, give this thin noodle to the junior!"
Mu Cheng was very embarrassed, he usually liked to talk about his temperament, but at this time, he didn't know what to say in the face of this enthusiastic Shen Zhuang owner, the other party was also in his fifties, and he was almost a few years old from himself, so he pulled down his face and called himself "senior", what else could he say!
Seeing that Mu Cheng was no longer speechless, Shen Qiu couldn't help but lead Mu Cheng's mount and walked forward. And Mu Cheng's body was inconvenient, so he couldn't hold the reins, so he could only stretch out his hand and smile bitterly with an embarrassed face.
"Elder Mu agreed, great! Let's take a step first, let the little cubs in the stockade gather up, and we will definitely treat you well!"
I don't know if I misunderstood the meaning of Mu Cheng's wry smile, or if Shen Qiu's behavior misled Liu Kun, I saw him with a look of ecstasy, shouted happily, turned around and jumped on the horse's back after a few steps, turned around and galloped towards the way he came.
Liu Kun was overjoyed suddenly, shouted strangely, and left decisively, without giving Situ Chao and the Shen brothers a chance to react, and when the sound of horses' hooves sounded, everyone turned their heads to look in the direction he left.
"Hey, Lord Liu Zhai ......"
Mu Cheng's face turned red and shouted at Liu Kun, but what responded to him was the sound of horses' hooves fading away.
"This ...... What's going on?"
Mu Chang sighed and recounted the episode just now.
"It seems that it is our brother who has dragged down your trip," Shen Dangtou smiled bitterly, "But the matter has come to this point, it is better for you to make a mistake, and it is not too late to take a rest in Sihuazhai and then hurry!"
"Don't hide it from Xian Kunzhong," Situ Chao said, "We still haven't escaped from the pursuit, if we go to Sihuazhai to stop for a while, I'm afraid it will bring danger to the two and the master of Liu Zhai!"
"What kind of words is this!" Shen Qiu still grabbed the reins of Mu Cheng's mount and said nonchalantly, "Even if anyone who is not long-sighted really dares to go to Sihua Village, it is just right for the two of us brothers to move their hands and feet to make up for their previous mistakes." ”
"Brother said very much! Let's go, let's go to Sihua Village!"
Shen Dangtou laughed and led Situ Chao's mount forward.
"Two, let's stay," Situ Chao said with a wry smile, "Even if you go to Sihua Village, wouldn't it be faster to let the old man and Brother Mu get on the horse and go again, after all, Brother Mu's legs and feet are inconvenient." ”
"Oh, big brother, what do you see our brother doing......"
Shen Qiu hurriedly smiled and helped Mu Cheng to get on the horse, and Shen Darttou also returned the horse to Situ Chao when he saw this.
"Eh, Brother Situ, these two are ......"
Shen Dangtou inadvertently found that there were two gray-clothed men behind Situ Chao and the others, who had been masked and did not speak, and couldn't help but ask strangely.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce to Shen Darttou, the nephew who is not a member of the family, originally wanted to follow the old man to help a little, who wants to suffer from the cold on the road, and dare not show up easily, for fear of being sick to others. ”
Situ Chao opened his mouth to explain.
The little man in gray also coughed twice at this time, and stretched out his right hand to cover his chest vigorously.
"When you're out and about, you should be careful with your body. ”
Shen Qiu's words were full of care, and he looked up and down at these two mysterious Situ juniors.
At this time, the sky was already bright, and Shen Qiu could see it clearly, both of them were wearing wide gray robes, and their faces were covered with masks of the same color, only the part above the eyes was exposed, and their eyes were full of fatigue and vigilance.
"Big brother, no, they are from the rivers and lakes!"
In the end, Shen Qiu's gaze fell on Tian Qing's uncovered dart bag, his expression changed, and he couldn't help shouting out the doubts in his heart.
Situ Chao kept his eyes on Shen Dart's head, and when he heard Shen Qiu's shout and subconsciously grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist, his eyes couldn't help but narrow, revealing a cold light.
