Chapter 267: Successful in the first attempt
Hu Qiong rode to the north of the city, wanting to explore the secrets of swordsmanship and gold and silver confessed by Bai Guanghua, but he was afraid that he was weak and could not protect himself.
Walking to the west of the city, the horse was hesitant again, Hu Qiong hesitated, thirty miles west of the city, aren't there still five robbers blocking the road? Then they came to the northwest. After walking for a while, it suddenly occurred to me that I was afraid of even five robbers, so how could I go to my uncle in thousands of rivers and mountains? I am afraid that I will die in the wilderness before I have reached the halfway point.
Hu Qiong asked with his mouth, and the horse was just circling in place. Hu Qiong thought that he had meditated hard and practiced the swordsmanship of the wind, so why didn't he drum up the courage to move forward and fight with the robbers who blocked the way?
I made up my mind and decided to go west. After going around to the west of the city for more than ten miles, he took the horse with him, and Hu Qiong thought, I don't know if the secret tips and gold and silver that the master said are true or false? And he brought his horses to the north of the city, and whipped them up, until they came toward the north.
Galloping all the way, I came to the north of Zhijiang City, and a mountain appeared in front of me, which was taller than the place where the master buried his bones. Riding a horse to the mountain, a stream of water flowed down from the mountain. Hu Qiong tied his horse to a tree at the foot of the mountain, stepped on a stone from the stream, and walked towards the depths of the stream.
Although it was a small stream, the banks were very high and steep, and it was a secluded route. Hu Qiong sometimes stepped on the stones, sometimes stepped into the flowing water, and her shoes were already soaked. After walking three or four miles deep, he walked to a cliff, the purpose had arrived, Hu Qiong looked up, there was no one around, not even a bird screamed, the wind blew the trees and swayed, and there was silence.
In the middle of the cliff, there was a stone, take the stone away, a small hole appeared, with your hand to touch, sure enough, took out gold, silver and jewelry, and a thin book of more than 20 pages, at a glance it is the master said that the secret of swordsmanship.
Hu Qiong thought that before the master died, he handed over such an important thing to me, I must not lose it, and now my swordsmanship still can't protect it, so it's safer to put it here, although the master has explained that the gold, silver and jewelry in the cave are his own, but he has a lot on his body, and it is a blessing or a curse to bring more.
So he took nothing and retook the stone and sealed it. Follow the same path, step on the stream, and go down the river. Before I knew it, I was halfway there.
"What are you doing?" Suddenly a voice came from overhead, Hu Qiong was startled, and hurriedly raised her head to look, an old man with a wrinkled face was standing on the cliff.
This was an old man who was herding sheep, because he heard the bleating of the sheep, and thought that it was alone, so he came to find it, and a curious sheep stood in front of the cliff with the old man. Hu Qiong was still so frightened that her heart was pounding, and she lied to him: "I'm catching fish and playing." ”
"Are you holding on?"
"I didn't catch it, the fish was slippery. ”
The old man said: "In winter, when the water in the ditch is dry, you can pick up fish, and many little babies run to this ditch to pick up fish." It's earlier now, and the fish haven't grown up. "The old man herds sheep every day, and only talks to the sheep every day, but today I finally met a person, so he talks more.
Hu Qiong ignored him anymore, followed the stream, and walked out of the mountain. Mount, head west.
I walked more than ten miles away. Hu Qiong thought again, the old man said, there are many children in the stream to catch fish, maybe, a curious child will inadvertently take out the stone, revealing the small hole, what can I do?
It doesn't matter if the gold, silver, and jewels are taken away, but if the secret of swordsmanship is taken away, it's a big problem. If it is taken away by the traitorous and wicked people, it will not kill innocent people indiscriminately and harm the rivers and lakes! What he did not expect was that Bai Guanghua would use this to harm the rivers and lakes and become a great evil person that everyone shouted and beaten.
But he didn't succeed in swordsmanship, so how could he protect the secret secret? After thinking about it, he decided to transfer the secret to another place. Then he rode his horse and came to the northeast.
The horse hesitated. Hu Qiong immediately thought that it would be good to change places, but if he died, how could this secret be seen again? Isn't it the same as the great trust of the master on his deathbed? So he decided to put the secret on himself, but he also thought that there were five robbers on the western road who were still waiting for him, and if he was defeated, wouldn't he give up the secret secret? Thinking that he would come back from Chongqing to get the secret book again.
The decision was made and the southwestward head was returned. Take the avenue and head west. It was a wilderness, with no people, trees and reeds, and the leaves were blown by the wind and the birds were frightened.
Thirty miles away, five more robbers were waiting. Hu Qiong hesitated a little, but thought again, even these five robbers could not deal with them, how could they go to the end of the world with a sword? How could he protect his master's secret and find excellent apprentices for him, so as to carry forward the prestige of his negation of the hexagram sect? Thinking of this, he was already not afraid, and with a whip of his horse, he went west.
Thirty roads away from the city, he has come to the place where he was robbed at that time. Sure enough, the five robbers were still holding their posts, and when they saw Hu Qiong coming on horseback, they immediately surrounded him with knives.
After a dozen faces, everyone still knows each other. The leader thought, "He has changed into a good dress, and rides a tall horse, and there is a big package behind the horse, and he seems to be a little rich man." He cried out, "Boy, leave the money for the road." ”
Hu Qiong was determined to test the sword with these five robbers, but he was not afraid, jumped off the horse, and said: "King, return to me the golden hairpin you robbed last time, it is my sister's thing." ”
The leader said, "He grabbed me first." He shouted, "Throw the package over, so that Lao Tzu doesn't do it." ”
"Give me back the golden hairpin. ”
"Lao Tzu has changed the wine and drank, how are you going?"
"Give me back. ”
"You still toast and don't eat and drink. ”
The leader was not a robber who begged for favors and talked in a rambling manner, he raised his knife and slashed at Hu Qiong's head. Hu Qiong swung in the wind, dodged the knife, and made a move to "swing willows in the wind", and stabbed the leader with a sword, and by surprise, he stabbed the body with a sword. The leader looked down and saw blood flowing from his body, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that Hu Qiong had run to the other side and stood far away, and shouted, "Kill me." The five of them surrounded Hu Qiong in the center again.
Hu Qiong succeeded with a sword, his confidence was greatly increased, and he used the "windward swing" swordsmanship, like a butterfly wearing flowers, shuttling back and forth between the five people, and the small sword in his hand stabbed in the east and west, and a move "willow branch dance" scratched one person, a move "long strip to stay a guest" stabbed one person, and a move "inextricably linked", stabbed three people in a row, and in an instant, five people were injured and drenched in blood.
Hu Qiong was still standing in the middle of the five people, and he was very proud when he saw that he had already played Kai in his first swordsmanship.
The five people only felt a flower in front of them, and they were all injured, while the other party was unscathed, discouraged, shouted, and fled in all directions.
Hu Qiong used the light skill of "flying with the wind" and chased the bandit leader alone. After a few dozen steps, he was caught up, and he only felt that the tip of the sword was behind him.
The leader couldn't run, so he had to turn around and beg for mercy: "Son, spare your life." ”
Hu Qiong said: "Give me back the golden hairpin, and everything will be over." ”
The leader took out the golden hairpin from his bosom. This golden hairpin is exquisitely done, and the leader knows that it is a treasure, and he puts it in his arms, and never leaves, where is he willing to exchange wine to drink?
Hu Qiong took it in his hand and asked again: "Ten days ago, were there two women in white who passed by here?" ”
"Nope. The leader was afraid that the prince was coming to seek revenge, so he replied firmly.
"You dare to lie to me!" Hu Qiong pointed with the tip of his sword.
"I've seen it, I've seen it. The two of them passed by that day, taught us a lesson, and left. ”
"Where are you going?"
"Went west. ”
Hu Qiong was still thinking about the clouds in her heart, she was stunned for a long time, and when she raised her head, her horse was gone.
