Chapter 56 Liujiazhai

From Xiangyang to the north, about two days of travel to Nanyang, everyone while playing, enjoying the spring color of this road while hurrying, happy but can also forget the hard work of the journey.

Xi Zhen asked for directions all the way, and learned that Liujiazhai was not far away, and everyone became even happier. This person, once he has a goal, when the goal is close, he is naturally happy and tight. The four of them followed the direction of the guide, and in about two hours they saw a small village in the distance. "Presumably that is Liujiazhai. Pei Feng said happily.

The four of them went straight through the fields to the village, but they saw that there was no one working in the fields. Xi Zhen was full of suspicions, it was still early, and this season was a critical time to hoe and remove weeds, why was there no one working in the field? Looking at the village from a distance, I saw several strong men guarding the gate in front of the village, and it was surprisingly quiet in the village. Everyone was also surprised, could it be that something happened to Liujiazhai?

Everyone hurried to the outside of the gate, and the several strong men guarding the door were also extremely nervous when they saw Xi Zhen and the four of them coming, and they saw Pei Yun and Pei Feng with a long sword on their waists, and they stared at the four of them with abnormal expressions.

Pei Yun stepped forward and asked, "Dare to ask if this is Liujiazhai?"

The strong men's eyes were very nervous, and they looked at everyone very vigilantly and shouted, "What's the matter?

Pei Yun also noticed the abnormality, but he had to suppress his curiosity and said loudly: "I am tired of informing your master, there is an old man who has made a special trip to visit." ”

One of the strong men asked, "What is the old man?" and where did the guest officer come from?"

Pei Yun couldn't bear it and said: "I went with my uncle and went all the way north for thousands of miles, interviewing the deceased, that's all, but the head of the Guizhai family is so trusted." We came according to the etiquette, but I didn't expect your village to be like this, is this your way of hospitality?"

Several strong men saw that Pei Yun was very unfriendly, so they hurriedly showed their blades to protect the gate of the village, and the strong man said coldly: "It seems that what the head of the family said is true, since you don't wait to come with good intentions, why do you have to pretend to be? Although my Liujiazhai is located in a remote area, it is not something that can be bullied by a random person, and if you want to enter the village today, you want to ask me about the knife in my hand to see if it agrees." ”

Xi Zhen was very surprised, this Liu family brother is upright, but his family is so rude, why is this? They seem to be facing a great enemy, why is this? Just as they were about to ask each other, how did they expect that the strong man was the first to attack the long knife, and then swept towards Pei Yun. Xi Zhen saw that this person's sword skills were average, but he was extremely powerful.

Pei Yun is also full of fire, staying in Wudang for more than a month, practicing martial arts every day, but he can't find the right person to feed him, and this time it's just right. So Pei Feng hurriedly unsheathed his sword and walked towards the strong man.

That strong man is Pei Yun's opponent, and after a few combinations, he only has the power to parry and not the power to fight back, Pei Yun's long sword forced the strong man to be at a loss. Pei Yun didn't want to hurt anyone, he just verified his kung fu in his hands, so he withdrew after the fight. This angered the strong man even more. The strong man's eyes were red, and he looked at the clothes on his body that were torn by the sword and roared: "Your Excellency is smart, but you can use the kung fu in your hands to play with people, and you can kill but not humiliate, today I am different from you." Turning his head, he beckoned several people to rush up.

There were also people in the village who saw this scene, and slowly gathered more and more people to surround Xi Zhen and the four of them. Pei Yun suddenly had a few more opponents, but it didn't seem to be very strenuous, and the strong man in that group of people seemed to have the best kung fu. After a while, several strong men were forced to retreat step by step by Pei Yun, embarrassed.

More and more people gathered in the village, surrounding Xi Zhen and them, but when they saw Pei Yun making a move, they were so ruthless, but they didn't know what the others were, so they were also very jealous, so they just surrounded Xi Zhen and them.

Just as Pei Yundou was rising, a short gun suddenly flew into the air. Pei Yun saw that the short spear was flying too fast, and knew that there must be a master to make a move, so he didn't dare to be careless, and raised the long sword flat. At this time, the short spear happened to stab Pei Yun's sword body, and the power of this short spear was extremely powerful, so Pei Yun retreated more than ten steps before gradually unloading his strength.

At this time, the crowd came to a road, only to see a person with a tiger on his back, walking in a wolf's step, and said loudly as he walked: "Who dares to come here to make trouble, Liujiazhai is what you say you can break through?"

Pei Yun received a blow, and his heart suddenly became arrogant, and he was about to step forward with his sword to fight for three hundred rounds. was grabbed and pulled down by Xi Zhen, and Xi Zhen arched his hand and shouted: "Third Brother Liu." ”

The man was stunned and looked at Xi Zhen, it was the third elder of the Liu family, Liuzhuang. When Liu Zhuang saw Xi Zhen, he was surprised, and then smiled and said, "Isn't this Xi Shaoxia?

Xi Zhen smiled and said: "The little brother doesn't dare to forget the covenant of the past, and I came to visit today, but I don't understand the rules of Guizhai, and I collided with Guibaodi, and I hope that the three will forgive me." ”

Since the last time this Liuzhuang fought, he has always admired Xi Zhen for being a bright and upright man, so he turned his head and scolded the strong man and said: "Another guest is visiting, why don't you report it?

The strong man blushed, only to know that it was really the old friend of the head of the family, so he hurriedly stepped forward to make amends. Xi Zhen hurriedly said: "There is no need to be like this, we have no intention of enlightenment, and we are too reckless, please don't blame the brothers." Then he also scolded Pei Yun and said: "Along the way, I told you to restrain your heart, but you didn't explain it to others but you did it, and you didn't quickly apologize to the third uncle." ”

Although Pei Yun was unhappy in his heart, he also hugged his fists to apologize to Liuzhuang, and apologized to those strong men. The strong man wanted to be angry, but one was that the guests were visiting, and the other was that the other party's martial arts were indeed much better than his own, so he just snorted heavily.

Liu Zhuang glared at the strong man, and then helped Pei Yun up. smiled and took Xi Zhen's hand and said: "Shaoxia is visiting, it is a distinguished guest, we are slacking, this is not the place to talk, please enter the village to talk." After speaking, he led Xi Zhen and them into the village.

Fang Jinzhai sat down, and Liuzhuang let people pour tea and wait, and then entered the inner hall. After a while, the hearty voice of the people in Liuqiao had already arrived: "Xi Shaoxia is really a trustworthy gentleman, and it is really a blessing for Liu to have a relationship with Xi Shaoxia." ”

Xi Zhen and his entourage hurriedly got up, and after everyone introduced each other, Xi Zhen asked: "Brother Liu, the younger brother has something unclear, and I hope that Brother Liu will not hesitate to give advice." ”

Liu Qiao glanced at Xi Zhen, walked away from the other people in the village and said, "I know what my brother wants to ask." Then he sighed lightly and said: "That day, my seven brothers fought with my elder brother, and I knew that my eldest brother was a fair and upright gentleman. Although the seven brothers of my Liu family are not good, they have always abided by the chivalrous duties of the rivers and lakes, behaved innocently, and did things above board. It's just that it was a last resort that day. ”

Looking at Xi Zhen's eyes, Liu Qiao continued: "That day, I changed to inform my brother that my mother was suffering from a strange disease and needed a rare medicine to guide her. But the man told us that as long as our brother and I kept my brother, he would give this medicine as a gift. Therefore, our brothers had no choice but to do it, and when it came time to fight, our brothers knew that my brother was a man of honor and integrity, so how could he be willing to fight for my brother's life because of my family's affairs? After that day, that person held my brother accountable, and recently threatened to come to my Liujiazhai to ask for an explanation. ”

At this point, Liu Zhuang said: "That person is strong in martial arts, my seven brothers are not their opponents, and they are inferior after a fight." When our brothers retreated to the village, they armed the village to defend it, and even if they were facing the enemy, the chances of victory would be greater. ”

When Xi Zhen heard this, he couldn't help but say with a smile on his face: "It's the little brother, it's all for us to stop here, but the little brother is ashamed." Before everyone could answer, Xi Zhen suddenly thought of something and hurriedly asked, "Dare to ask the eldest brother, the medicine introduced by Shicai is called the Dragon Touch of the Ruins?"

When the brothers of the Liu family heard this, their faces changed greatly, and they hurriedly asked: "How does my brother know about it? This dragon touch is a rare thing in the world, and according to legend, there are only two of them. One is in Ouchi Palace, and one is on that man. ”

Xi Zhen hurriedly said, "Brother Liu, you have been deceived. Sweeping the surprised eyes of the Liu family brothers, Xi Zhen said: "I don't know how many are in this world, whether there are them in the palace, I don't know, but I know that the Guixu Dragon Touch is not in the hands of Laikezhuang, but in Fujian Five Elements Fist." ”

Seeing that everyone was stunned, Xi Zhen took out the wooden box, explained the matter of the dragon touch of the ruins one by one, and finally said: "The little brother was specially sent this thing by someone on this trip. Xi Zhen didn't dare to say that this thing was entrusted by his second senior brother, because everyone in the rivers and lakes knew that the second senior brother Mei Yin was not allowed by Wudang, and even more so by his senior brother. If it is said at this time, it will inevitably be spread by people who are talkative, and all the efforts of the second senior brother will be in vain. Although he didn't know the final identity of the second senior brother, he believed that everything the second senior brother did was righteous, so he deliberately concealed it.

The brothers of the Liu family are famous filial sons, and today they saw the dragon touch of the ruins, but they were surprised and didn't know what to say.

This frightened Xi Zhen, he had never seen such a battle, and hurriedly held Liu Qiao and said: "The eldest brothers of the Liu family are all well-known men in the rivers and lakes, and they are all bright and upright people, are you going to torture the younger brother?" Xi Zhen was in a hurry for a while, and kept helping the seven people up and said: "We don't know each other, but we regard it as a confidant in our hearts, if the brothers of the Liu family are like this, the younger brother will immediately go." Besides, the younger brother is just entrusted by others, and the elder brothers don't have to be like this. ”

Liu Qiao suddenly smiled heartily: "What my brother said, then who is our benefactor? ”

Xi Zhen said with a smile: "Brother Liu didn't hurry up and take this dragon touch to treat his aunt, but he asked who Engong was, and he deserved to be a husband." The person who entrusted me told me that my younger brother did not need to tell his name, and he would know later. Now Brother Liu should rest assured, please believe that the person who has friends with the younger brother must not be an evil person. ”

Liu Qiao was relieved when he heard this, and ordered to go down to boil the dragon touch medicine and ordered to prepare wine and food, and wash the dust for Xi Zhen and his party.
