Volume 2 Sword Boy Tour Chapter 180 Thousands of miles away is troublesome
There are no cities in the wild clouds, and the rain and snow are even in the desert.
The general's golden armor does not take off at night, and the army marches in the middle of the night, and the limelight is like a knife.
Countless heroes on horseback came out of the tent of the North Abyss, riding horses, wielding scimitars, with strength and speed, the horses' hooves crushed the smoke everywhere, and stepped out of the vast territory of the North Abyss Empire.
However, when the smoke of gunpowder cleared and the city of immortality was built high, more cities were built on the vast grassland, and the magnates dismounted, entered the city, left the tents, and entered the houses.
The rough wind could no longer blow their faces;
The cold and violent rain and snow could no longer crush the warm houses and the strong city walls.
So they took up their glasses and fell drunk in the prosperity of the world, and drunk on the belly of the woman.
Toast the east wind, and calmly.
It's always hand in hand in the year, swimming all over the flowers.
Under the Yuan Emperor, the left and right prime ministers were respected, mainly managing the clan and the grassland nobles, dealing with tribal conflicts, and regulating the affairs of the vassal state, while the right prime minister was mainly responsible for state affairs, taxes, commerce, etc.
Under the right prime minister, like the Daduan dynasty in the south, there were six departments to divide various affairs.
As the son of Shangshu of the Criminal Department, Shi Youde can also be regarded as a big man in the city of immortality.
He has a very good personal relationship with Ma Lianshan, the only son of a great nobleman of the grassland, and the two of them are good to linger in all kinds of green buildings together, hugging left and right, and indulging in wine and entertainment.
Strange to say, the noble sons of the Tianjing City in the south, who are called the young men of the Imperial Tomb, fortunately, are the common flying eagle lackeys in the northern abyss, and they open their bows to hunt;
These top gentlemen in the Immortal City are all entertained with wine, and dancing and writing are the highest level of pleasure.
When you think about it, the world is always so absurd and funny.
Whether it is a flying eagle or a lackey, or a lingering voice, these people are always fighting against the boredom of life in a flamboyant or erosive way.
Because life has long been easy for them.
Only the bronze mirror on the table will oppose them, no matter how adventurous they are, how they seek novelty, the bronze mirror will reflect the same unsatisfied face from different angles.
Therefore, today's Shi Youde and Ma Lianshan are suddenly a little tired, of course, maybe they are also a little empty.
After all, the heart can bear it, God can bear it, and the kidneys can't stand it.
So they now plan to go out for a walk, run horses, and sweat profusely, so that they can better "fight."
Followed by more than a dozen doglegs, the two of them rode side by side and rushed towards the outside of Changsheng City.
At the west gate of Immortal City, six sergeants were standing upright, and the other four were inspecting the personnel and horses entering and leaving the city gate.
After the rectification and reform of Xue Zheng, the military god of Beiyuan, Beiyuan's military strength and appearance have been improved, which can be seen from the officers and soldiers defending the city.
There was a commotion in the distance, and the garrison sergeant named Wu Yan turned his head to look.
Seeing that there were two horsemen with a group of horses rushing towards him, causing pedestrians on the road to hurriedly avoid, and there was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping on the street, he shook his head slightly, this gang of nobles is really too unspeakable.
But in a moment, his eyes narrowed and his face revealed
Hanguang, because they were close to the city gate, these people did not have the slightest intention of slowing down.
He turned around and calmly looked at the horses that were getting closer and closer, and the people on them.
He didn't plan to give way, because, although he was a small officer and soldier defending the city, what he was guarding was the peace of the city, and this concession would give up the majesty of the military.
"Immortal City Gate, dismount and walk!"
He almost shouted it.
But the galloping horse in front of him did not feel the slightest intention of the master to slow it down, so he still swung his legs and rushed forward.
Wu Yan clenched his hands, do you dare to do this?
With your hands clenched, you are about to shoot at the person who comes.
Suddenly, he was pulled to the side coldly, and he narrowly got out of the way.
He turned his head angrily, and it was none other than a veteran of this city gate.
The veteran was about to explain to him, when his expression suddenly changed, and Wu Yan was suddenly alert, but he didn't have time to completely turn around.
"Smack!"
A long whip whistled and whistled at Wu Yan's neck, and even the corners of his face were covered with a bloody mark.
Ma Lianshan held the long whip and said disdainfully: "Things that don't have long eyes, even Lao Tzu's horse dares to stop it!"
After speaking, he didn't even look at Wu Yan, grabbed the horse's belly, and rushed out.
The last ten servants also looked at Wu Yan sarcastically, as if they were looking at a fool and a dead man.
Wu Yan's fists were clenched, the green tendons burst out, and his chamber rose and fell violently.
The veteran just now hurriedly grabbed his arm and said in a low voice: "That's the son of the Yue Ma family, I can't afford to provoke him!"
Yu Yue, the title of the noble of Beiyuan, is divided into greater than Yue and less than Yue.
The way of distinction is very simple, the military states built by their respective clans and slaves, more than five are greater than Yue, and insufficient are less than Yue.
And Ma Qi, the father of Ma Lianshan, holds twelve military states, has real strength, and is among the best among the great nobles in the Beiyuan grassland.
Such a Malian Mountain, especially a small city gate soldier, can resist.
Sweat seeped into the wound, and it hurt hotly, but Wu Yan only felt panicked in his heart, he looked at this veteran who had taken care of himself a lot these days, and his voice was a little hoarse, "However, this is the rule set by His Majesty Emperor Yuan and Lord Junshen." ”
The veteran was speechless for a moment, and finally just patted Wu Yan's shoulder, sighed and went to work.
Wu Yan squatted against the wall in a daze, speechless for a long time.
Rushed out of the city gate, looking at the sky and the earth in the distance, the grass and trees were abundant, Ma Lianshan and Shi Youde were happy in their hearts, and they even rode their horses wildly.
Everyone on the official road avoided it, and many of those who were slow were whipped, but seeing the momentum of the other party, many people dared not speak out.
Sweating slightly, Ma Lianshan and Shi Youde glanced at each other, laughed, and continued to shout and drive the horse to gallop.
The latter group of servants also shouted and cheered, and the momentum was huge.
Opposite them, four horses came as well.
Ma Lianshan glanced at it casually, it was not a familiar face, and he rushed over without slowing down.
In this capital on this day, it's not his horse father
Zi's familiar face, that is not a big man, for Ma Qi's son, he has not been in the palace since he was a child, and he seems to be qualified to say this.
He snorted, "Get out of here!"
Rushed out first.
Shi Youde also smiled and followed, since Ma Gongzi dared to go up, he had nothing to be afraid of.
Among the four riders, one of the red-faced men said softly, "Get out of the way." ”
As soon as the words fell, the four of them flashed towards the side of the road, and the two of them left a spacious enough passage in the middle.
Seeing the cowardice of these four people, Ma Lianshan sneered in his heart, and scolded contemptuously when he rushed over, "I don't know if I see Ma Ye, get out of the way early!"
Shi Youde followed, as if echoing Ma Gongzi's words, the long whip in his hand shook, and he slashed at the red-faced man at the front and pulled it over.
On a galloping horse, whether it is a scimitar or a whip, it is much more powerful than in the same place.
Shi Youde's eyes seemed to have appeared in front of this red-faced man's face with a bloody whip mark.
Suddenly, his hands tightened, and the whole person was pulled backwards and fell off the horse.
The galloping horse castration did not stop, so Shi Youde was thrown forward, and the whole person was smashed to the ground, and he fell into a mess.
Hou Hu saw Shi Youde fall off his horse, and hurriedly dodged and dodged, but he also lost his superb riding skills, but he didn't trample Shi Youde to death on the ground.
There are many riders in Beiyuan, and the skills are excellent, and the name is well deserved.
Ma Lianshan, who had already rushed out in front, reacted to the changes and rode back with a calm face.
One of the guards said viciously: "Do you know who we are?
Another guard said, "Fool who doesn't know the height of the sky, you're finished!"
But none of them dared to step forward and make a move, because when they saw it from behind just now, the red-faced man grabbed the horsewhip swung by Shi Youde with one hand, and did not move at all, understatement.
The red-faced man threw the horsewhip in his hand to the ground at will, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and just threw it on the face of Shi Youde, who was still lying on the ground and moaning.
He said lightly: "Then do you know who we are?"
"I don't care who you are! Lao Tzu only knows that you're finished!" Ma Lianshan gritted his teeth with a heavy expression.
The two guards helped Shi Youde up, he rubbed his waist, angry, "Idiot, you're finished!"
The red-faced man smiled, "Oh? What kind of family background do you dare to say that?"
Ma Lianshan didn't speak, but one of the guards who had been falling at the end and had the least sense of existence spoke up, "This is Ma Qi Dayue's only son, and as for the one who was injured by you, it is the son of Master Shangshu Shi of the Criminal Department." ”
The red-faced man frowned slightly, and the two horsemen who had been scattered on the other side also drove to his side.
Ma Lianshan looked at the red-faced man's appearance, and sneered in his heart, he really didn't shed tears when he didn't see the coffin, now he knew that he was afraid?
With a wave of his right hand, a horsewhip was waved down towards the red-faced man, Lao Tzu saw if you still dare to hide, dare to fight back.
The expected crisp sound did not sound, and the red-faced man actually reached out again and grabbed the horsewhip, and then headed
Pull on the ground.
A strong blow came, Ma Lianshan was thrown to the ground, this time his face hit the ground, his face was scratched, and his nose bleeds flowed, and he was very embarrassed.
The guard who spoke up hurriedly helped Ma Lianshan up, Ma Lianshan wiped a handful of nosebleeds with his hand, saw the scarlet on the back of his hand, and became angry, "Kill him for me!"
He couldn't believe that after he reported his home, there were still people who dared to do it to him, and let himself see blood!
Since you don't know the height of the sky, don't blame Lao Tzu for having no subordinates.
Over the years, there have been countless souls who have died under Lao Tzu, and you are not the only one.
Without waiting for this guard and another cultivator hidden in the guard to make a move, the red-faced man pointed at Ma Lianshan with his horsewhip and said, "You really don't want to ask who I am?"
Ma Lianshan roared angrily, "No matter who you are, you are dead!"
The guard who supported him was actually a cultivator of the Xuan Realm, secretly protecting Ma Lianshan.
In his opinion, these people are not cultivated, and it is said that they are not so calm, but if you look closely, even the rest of the people behind the red-faced man still have a little feeling of watching a play, which makes him feel moved in his heart.
Thinking of this, his tone softened a little, "Who is Your Excellency?"
Hearing the guard's question, Ma Lianshan glanced at him in some surprise, and said angrily: "Uncle Han, I'll let you kill him!"
A sergeant behind the red-faced man chuckled lightly, and finally spoke, "Idiot, first of all, you can't kill our general, and secondly, you don't dare to kill either!"
Hearing the word general, the heart of the Xuanxuan Realm Guardian sank.
Ma Lianshan smiled nonchalantly, "It turned out to be a soldier, and he dared to be so presumptuous with a little bravery, this is the Immortal City, not your nest of military camps." Fools, remember, you're just a dog from the Empire, and you dare to bark at your master?"
"My general's surname is Liu, and he is out of the general's mansion. ”
The other sergeant was furious and spoke coldly.
Ma Lianshan's face changed, and when he left the general's mansion, it would be difficult to do.
Everyone knows that in Immortal City, apart from Emperor Yuan, the last thing to be messed with is the general.
Even because of the relationship between the generals, the general manager of the General's Mansion, Yan Jinghan, can be among the best among the characters that cannot be messed with in Immortal City.
Shi Youde opened his mouth at this time, "Old Ma, not everyone in the General's Mansion is a general, not everyone can walk sideways!"
Ma Lianshan nodded again and again, his face returned to composure, the General's Mansion is so big, his share is here, even if it is the General's Mansion, there are not many people who dare to provoke the two of them.
"Haha, interesting, if you don't have the heart of the big river, you won't die!" a sergeant said with a smile: "Do those eight horses dare to provoke you?"
Another sergeant revealed, "I forgot to say, my general's name is Liu He." ”
Ma Lianshan and Shi Youde's faces instantly lost blood, and the guards who supported Ma Lianshan smiled bitterly in their hearts, but this time the son kicked the iron plate.
Liu He, nicknamed Chiji, the head of the Eight Horses of the General's Mansion, asked the Heavenly Realm to cultivate, especially good at commanding troops and military formations, and won Xue Zheng's trust.
It's just that he leads troops outside all the year round, and rarely moves in the Immortal City, guide
to himself and others who didn't recognize him.
Ma Lianshan thought in horror that he had just asked Liu He to quickly roll aside and make way for him, and he was sneering, and he broke out in a cold sweat;
Shi Youde thought that he was actually teasing Liu He and whipping Liu He's horsewhip when Liu He took the initiative to give way just now?
He suddenly felt a little weak in his legs;
Ma Lianshan raised his head and looked at Liu He's condescending and indifferent watch, what he was holding in his hand was the whip he had drawn towards him.
He felt his legs a little weak as well.
The red-faced man Liu He said lightly: "What you did to me, those who don't know are not guilty, and I will not pursue it." ”
"Whew!"
A few long gasps sounded, and he finally escaped.
"Still. ”
Listening to Liu He's voice, Ma Lianshan and Shi Youde's hearts rose to their throats again.
"You insult my Beiyuan soldiers as dogs, I need to have a good fight with your elders about this. ”
Liu He bowed down and said softly: "The general is also a person in the army, what do you say he will think when he hears it." ”
The soft voice was like a heavy hammer, smashing on the two of them.
Ma Lianshan and Shi Youde's legs, which were already unpresentably weak, finally couldn't support them, and their knees slammed on the ground, "General Liu spares his life! General Liu spares his life! I just made a slip of the tongue for a while, and you have a lot of them." ”
The two kept kowtowing, but Liu He just glanced at it, threw away the horsewhip, turned the horse's head, lightly clamped the horse's belly, and walked away directly.
Ma Lianshan sat down on the ground and muttered, "What should I do?"
Shi Youde's face turned even pale, "It's over, it's over." ”
The guard of the Xuan Realm spoke, "Gongzi, Shi Gongzi, for the sake of today's plan, the only way to catch up with General Liu is to get his forgiveness." If he waits for him to report the matter to the general, it will be too late. Judging from the fact that he didn't care about the two horsewhips, there should be a drama. ”
"Yes, yes, catch up!"
A group of more than a dozen people hurriedly chased after Liu He and his party.
"General, they're after you. ”
An accompanying sergeant whispered.
Liu Hedu didn't look back, and moved forward on his own.
Ma Lianshan and Shi Youde didn't dare to surpass him, but they just beat the horse and followed, and kept begging for mercy.
Liu He was stunned.
After a short time, they returned to the West City Gate.
The officers and soldiers at the city gate who had just seen Ma Lianshan and his entourage arrogantly go away looked at them in surprise as they returned again in despair, confused.
Huh? What's going on?
How did they follow these men?
Could it be that he is also a big shot?
When they arrived at the city gate, Liu He and his entourage obediently dismounted and led the horses on foot.
Later, Ma Lianshan and the others could only obediently dismount.
The officers and soldiers at the city gate were about to pop out when they saw this scene, especially the veteran who persuaded Wu Yan before, he had been guarding the city gate for so many years, and he couldn't be more aware of these gentlemen, how could he be so honest at this moment?
Liu He's gaze swept over the faces of the officers and soldiers, and he didn't see the person he wanted to see, so he was a little surprised, so he asked an officer and soldier next to him: "Little brother, where is the kid named Wu Yan here?"
"Your Excellency, here
There!"
Following the sergeant's finger, a shadow sat lonely in the small dark room inside the doorway, looking gloomy and lifeless.
Liu He frowned, this Wu Yan is a very potential recruit in his army, he learns things very quickly, and his martial arts skills are good, because his temper still needs to be polished, after a conflict with others, Liu He threw him into Tianjing City, to be a three-month city gate soldier, and the right to be sharpened.
It's only been less than half a month, how did it become such a virtue?
He shouted softly, "Wu Yan, get out of here!"
Hearing this familiar voice, Wu Yan suddenly came to life, looked up, rushed out with a look of surprise, and knelt down on one knee in front of Liu He, "Wu Yan to meet the general." ”
Liu He frowned and looked at the whip mark that spread from Wu Yan's face to his mouth, "What's the matter?"
If his soldiers are bullied here for no reason, then he, the leader, must support him.
Wu Yan looked up at his own head official, and suddenly felt a sour nose, and told the story of Fang Cai with a trill.
Liu He knew Wu Yan's heart very well and understood that he was not sad because of the pain of that whip, but because of the whip that shattered his firm beliefs and ideals in his heart.
Such a thing happened too suddenly, too directly, and too difficult to accept for a young and energetic young man.
He made a decision in his heart that he couldn't let a good seedling go waste.
"Wu Yan, stand up for Lao Tzu. ”
Wu Yan stood up obediently, and Liu He raised his hand to Ma Lianshan, who was already silent behind Wu Yan, "But his hand?"
Wu Yan nodded.
How Ma Lianshan hopes that time can be turned back at this moment, if he can do it again, he must obediently and honestly dismount and walk out of the city gate with a smile.
Unfortunately, there was no such opportunity.
Liu He pulled out a horse whip from the waist of the guard next to him and swung it out suddenly.
A whip mark identical to Wu Yan suddenly appeared on Malian Mountain, and the control of the Heaven Realm master was obvious.
"I returned this whip to you for Wu Yan, if you are unhappy, you can ask your parents for help, I will wait for you in the General's Mansion!"
Liu Hejing stood like a tower, and his words were like knives.
Ma Lianshan lowered his head and didn't even dare to say it.
"Get out!"
As Liu He broke off, more than a dozen people who were swaggering like defeated roosters walked through the crowd of onlookers and bowed their heads into the city.
From beginning to end, he didn't dare to gallop again.
Walking out of the distance, Ma Lianshan looked back in the direction of the city gate, and a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes.
Liu He turned to look at Wu Yan, "You have to remember that some things are not so fragile, not so unbearable, even if they are destroyed for a while, they will eventually be re-established, just like justice, it may be late, but it will never be absent." What we soldiers have to do is to protect it, and always guard it, because it is worth guarding it!"
Wu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up with a shining light, and he knelt on one knee and cried silently, "Thank you, General!"
Everyone here today didn't know how much of a storm this seemingly ordinary little conflict would set off in the North Abyss, and how far-reaching it would have on the future of the entire world.
When each of them comes to the end of their lives, they will surely recall all this today, and wonder if they will regret it, or be grateful, or grateful.
