Chapter 271: Money Invites Trouble

Chapter 271: Money Invites Trouble

In the moonlight, I saw a group of masked men running straight towards their boat with bright steel knives in the distance.

Hu Qiong secretly shouted "not good", used the light skill of "flying with the wind", and ran straight towards the bank of the river. The masked men jumped onto the bow of the ship and only slipped into the cabin. Hu Qiong didn't have time to save him, and shouted:

"There are robbers ......"

In the silence of the night, the voice was sharp and loud, and the man who sailed the boat, who had been walking in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and the rivers and lakes were in a treacherous turmoil, how could he not know? A man had already woken up, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a figure intruding, and he knew that it was a robber, and he had no time to wake up his companions, so he had to kick them with his feet. The men were kicked awake in their sleep, and in the dimness they saw the shining swords in the cabin, and they knew that there were robbers, and they had no time to dress, so they held the quilt to protect themselves from being cut by steel knives, broke through the door, and ran all the way to the back bow of the ship.

The robber followed and ran to the rear boat, the boatman with the futon and the robber with the steel knife, and the two sides confronted each other. The steel knife was sharp, and it slashed at the bedding, but it could not be cut for a moment. After a few slashes, the boatmen were defeated after all, and they jumped into the river and fled to the shore. The robber also jumped into the water and pursued him in pursuit.

The boatmen ran ashore, and the robbers chased after them, but they all ran to Hu Qiong. The boatmen shouted: "Childe run...... away"

Hu Qiong did not run away, let the boatman pass, holding a short sword, and faced the robbers. After fighting with the five robbers in the west of Zhijiang City, Hu Qiong's confidence was greatly increased, and when he met again tonight, he rushed forward without hesitation. Seven or eight robbers immediately surrounded Hu Qiong in the middle, and the bright steel knife was sure to dismantle Hu Qiong in eight pieces. Hu Qiong used the "swing against the wind" swordsmanship to meet the battle.

I saw a robber with a move to "split Huashan", a knife slashed, the knife was fierce, Hu Qiong dodged a dodge, a move "swinging willows in the wind", and stabbed at the opponent's waist with a sword. At first, the robber put a thin scholar in his eyes, carelessly underestimated the enemy, only to feel a pain in his waist, the sword had been stabbed, hurriedly retreated, and then made a knife "autumn wind sweeping leaves", the steel knife slashed horizontally towards Hu Qiong's waist. Unexpectedly, Hu Qiong had already run away, holding his sword and killing another robber, but this knife naturally did not hit.

Another robber saw a flower in front of him, and hurriedly raised his sword to meet him, but Hu Qiong ran past him, slashed his waist with a sword, and ran away. The robber saw blood from his belly running down his belly.

Hu Qiong stabbed two people in a row, his confidence increased greatly, and like a little bird, he quickly ran out of the encirclement of the robbers, stood outside the field, and raised his sword to meet the enemy.

The robbers stood still, dumbfounded. It's like seven or eight people catching a monkey, the strength of a person must be greater than that of a monkey, but the monkey is flexible, and seven or eight people can't catch a monkey, but they are very embarrassed by the monkey.

"What are you doing standing stupidly? Kill me. A robber leader was shouting.

The seven or eight robbers rushed in unison. Hu Qiong greeted him, and he was now like a monkey, running back and forth in the crowd, trying to unleash the fifty "swinging in the wind" swordsmanship one by one. After killing more than 20 rounds back and forth, sure enough, these seven or eight robbers were tricked by a "monkey", all of them were wounded, panting like cattle, and embarrassed.

Hu Qiong was already victorious, stood on the river beach, and asked, "Who are you? Why did you come to kill people in the middle of the night? Do we have an enmity with you?"

The robbers had already been defeated, and did not dare to answer, but the leader knew that he could not take advantage of half a cent, so he had to use his hand to make a move, and the people followed him and ran towards his own ship. Hu Qiong didn't dare to chase after them anymore, for fear that they would fight for their lives. The robbers got into the boat, and the boat sailed downstream along the river.

The shipwrights who were watching the battle from a distance gathered around, gave a thumbs up, and praised:

"Childe, that's amazing!"

"Young age, swordsmanship like a god!"

"Childe, it's the swordsman. ”

suddenly thought that it was Hu Qiong who saved their lives, so he thanked Gongzi for saving his life, and knelt on the riverbank and kowtowed.

Hu Qiong asked, "Where did this robber come from? Killing people in the middle of the night for no reason?"

Wang Baobao knelt up straight and said, "Benefactor, that bully Dong Tianxian who wants fifty taels of silver." As soon as he spoke, I could tell it was him. ”

Hu Qiong asked rhetorically: "Didn't you pay back his silver?"

Wang Baobao said: "When he saw that his benefactor had a package of silver, he became greedy and wanted to kill us so that he could take the benefactor's silver." I think he followed all the way, and I couldn't help but do it tonight. ”

Hu Qiong sighed: "That's it. I have long said that money is something outside the body, don't take it too seriously. Money is the root cause of trouble, and many people have killed people and set fires for it, and they have done all kinds of evil. ”

"Yes, yes, the benefactor is right! We will be careful in the future, and beware of his revenge. ”

These boatmen who pulled the fiber talked a lot, walked up to the boat, arranged for one person to keep vigil, and then everyone lay down to sleep. Nothing was said all night.

On this day, the ship arrived at Zigui. Hu Qiong was accompanied by Wang Baobao, and went to Qu Yuan's hometown and Zhaojun's hometown for a day to play.

Boat line Wu Gorge, only to see the mountains and mountains on both sides, the peak is inserted into the clouds, the clouds and mist are swirling, a river passes through the peaks and forests, the waves are surging, a thousand miles away, as fast as a galloping horse, the boat is like a leaf being thrown around by the rapid waves. Hu Qiong has long been accustomed to standing at the bow of the boat, looking up at the peaks on both sides, the narrow blue sky is like a streamer, and the ape is chirping, which is terrible, as Li Bai wrote: "The ape on both sides of the strait is endless." ”

On the morning of this day, Hu Qiong was sitting in the cabin, pondering the "windward swing" swordsmanship, only to hear Wang Baobao shouting: "Benefactor, come out and see, there is the Goddess Peak above." ”

Hu Qiong heard the sound and walked out, looking forward, only to see the goddess standing on the high peak, the colorful clouds below, the surrounding cranes flying, the goddess leaning on the sky and looking into the distance, the morning sun shines on the goddess, the glow of the sun, the name of the goddess peak, it is really true!

Hu Qiong asked, "Isn't there another Condensing Truth Temple?"

Wang Baobao said: "Ning Zhenguan is not here, it is on Feifengfeng Mountain." The benefactor wants to go on a tour, so I will turn the rudder. ”

Wang Baobao was at the helm, and the boat walked into a tributary with the left side and south side, and looked at the mountains on the right like a phoenix spreading its wings. Wang Baobao said: "Benefactor, Ning Zhen has seen it. ”

There were two or three large boats moored on the bank of the river, and Hu Qiong's boat slowly leaned aside. Hu Qiong jumped off the boat and said to Wang Baobao: "I'll go to play, you can rest on the boat, you don't have to accompany me." ”

Hu Qiong walked along the stone mountain road towards the mountain, about half a mile, the mountain road was steep, slowly climbed the steps, the ancient trees on both sides reached the sky, the stream jingled, the miscellaneous flowers were everywhere, the fragrance was pleasant, the sun shone outside the mountain, and the forest was cool and refreshing. Halfway up the mountain, the majestic condensation view has appeared in front of you.

Hearing only the sound of shouting and shouting in the view and the sound of swords hitting each other, Hu Qiong launched the light skill of "flying with the wind" and ran straight towards the condensing true view.

Hu Qiong ran into the temple like a meteor, the sound was in the backyard, turned around and ran in, in the small courtyard, only to see four or five masked robbers fighting around the two, two people had fallen on the ground, and among the people who were surrounded, one of them was holding a steel knife to protect a person who looked like an official. The official was about fifty years old, and the man who protected him was covered in blood, and he was still willing to protect his master. The robbers slashed and slashed, and the guards were running out.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Hu Qiong picked up a sword from the ground and shouted, "Stop." ”

When the robbers saw one of them, they cried out, "Stop." "How could they stop, but one of the robbers ran over when he heard the noise, raised his knife and killed Hu Qiong. This is the third time that Hu Qiong has learned the swordsmanship of "swinging against the wind" and has encountered the enemy. He didn't panic, dodged the knife, and stabbed the robber in the chest with a sword, and the blood flowed out.

The robber screamed, and immediately attracted two robbers to run over, and the three of them surrounded Hu Qiong in the center, and they were ready to kill for a while. The three robbers were determined to win, and the knife wanted Hu Qiong's life, so that he would not get in the way here and delay the right thing.

But this Hu Qiong is no longer what it used to be, his family is broken, he has survived hardships for a long time, and he has changed from a weak scholar to a brave knight. I saw him use the "windward swing" swordsmanship to fight with these robbers.

But these robbers are different from the robbers who block the road outside Zhijiang City, and they are also different from Dong Tianxian's thugs in Yiling City, they are killers who kill people and sell goods, and are hired by others.

Hu Qiong was one against three, although he was not afraid, he had many cuts on his body, so he had to use the light skill of "flying with the wind" to shuttle back and forth between the three. Although Hu Qiong couldn't win, he involved the three of them, and there were only two robbers left there, which slightly relieved the pressure on the guardian.

A leader over there saw that this side could not win, so he gave up the officials, ran to this side, and cut according to Hu Qiong, the knife was fast, Hu Qiong couldn't dodge, almost cut, had to run away, the leader chased after him, so the two ran back and forth in the corridor. The four men surrounded the officials in the center, killed and injured the guards, and demanded the lives of the officials.

Hu Qiong is too busy to take care of himself, where can he have the ability to save him again?
