Chapter 166: Dependence
"Brothers, Shaoxia has agreed to go with us. Li Changqing shouted at the group of dart masters.
Suddenly, the group of dart masters were in high spirits, and a swarm of bees surrounded Zhang Shaoyang in the middle, and from time to time someone praised: "Shaoxia is strong in martial arts, it's great to be able to go with us, now we don't need to remind you." β
"Where did the young man come from?"
"Look at the young man's dress, is he a person in the rivers and lakes? My father said that the people in the rivers and lakes like to see the road uneven and draw a knife to help, and sure enough, he didn't lie to me!"
"Shaoxia, your skills are really powerful, can you teach us a few tricks?"
"Young man..."
Everyone, you say a word, for a while, Zhang Shaoyang turned out to be the object of others' pursuit, which made him a little overwhelmed, seeing these dart masters getting closer and closer, Zhang Shaoyang looked at Yao Sanming who was hanging aside like a helper.
Yao Sanming looked like he didn't care about himself, and when he saw the gaze handed over by his apprentice, he simply turned around and pretended to look at the mountains in the distance.
"Okay brothers, don't go around the young man, hurry back and pack up, let's continue to hurry. β
Hearing the voice of the big dart master, the dart masters who were still in a mess just now suddenly quieted down, and then they all responded: "Dela!"
Everyone began to walk back in an orderly manner, revealing the quality of this team.
After this group of dart masters left, Zhang Shaoyang finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Yao Sanming with some resentment, and muttered: "Master, why did you agree to go with them, isn't this just a thug they recruited halfway?"
Yao Sanming smiled proudly: "You're not stupid, it's just for you to be a thug for them." β
"Master, I don't understand what you mean. β
"I finally encountered such an opportunity to sharpen you, how could you let it go so easily?"
Zhang Shaoyang suddenly realized: "It turns out that the master hit this idea. β
"You look at the darts they bet, look at the rut marks and know that there are some heavy objects inside, and if you can't keep it, it's three boxes of silver, who doesn't look at it, you have something to do along the way!"
Zhang Shaoyang's face was black, and he said viciously: "Master, you are too ruthless!"
Where would Yao Sanming listen to him complain so much, riding a big horse and looking at the team of dart masters over there to nervously clean up the mess, after watching for a while, Yao Sanming couldn't help but praise the efficiency of these dart masters.
Although these dart masters are all strong and strong, but they have encountered far more bandits than them, and they have suffered a lot of losses, in addition to those who have been slightly injured and can still move, there are six or seven seriously injured dart masters who are completely unable to walk, Yao Sanming originally thought that they would make difficulties in how to deal with these wounded, but he did not expect that the rest of the division of labor is quite clear, some people rushed straight into the mountains and forests, and it didn't take long for each person to drag a bundle of bamboos back, and the rest of the people quickly gathered the horses that could be freed up, and then put the saddle on, and every two horses in a rowγ
The crowd quickly tied the cut bamboo into a bamboo bed, took out some quilts carried by the convoy and spread them on the bamboo bed, and placed the seriously injured team members on the bamboo bed one by one, and then used a few thick ropes to put the bamboo bed on the saddle.
All this work took almost a moment, and the speed made Yao Sanming nod and applaud from time to time.
"Young man, old man, we have packed up, how are you over there, can you leave?" Li Changqing shouted at this side.
Seeing Yao Sanming nodded, Li Changqing waved his hand and ordered: "Let's go." β
After the team began to move forward in an orderly manner, Li Changqing rode a horse to Zhang Shaoyang and the two, at this moment he really had the leisure to take a closer look at the clothes and appearance of the two people in front of him, he first stared at Zhang Shaoyang a few times, and he had been running outside for many years, not to mention anything else, just looking at people, his vision has always been not bad, although the young man in front of him is dressed plainly, but whether it is from the appearance or the temperament emanating from the body, this person should be an official eunuch or a child of a merchant family, he moved his eyes to the old man on the side, only to feel that this old gentleman in addition to his upright posture, but there is no special thing that can be seen at a glance, it's just a kind old man.
However, judging from the young man's respectful attitude towards the old man, Li Changqing would not think that this was an ordinary old man, and said that those unborn masters and ordinary people on the rivers and lakes could not see through it, so he took it for granted that the old man was classified as a master.
So, Li Changqing didn't dare to be careless, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I let the young man and the old gentleman wait for a long time." β
"It's not in the way, we're not in a hurry, Li Darttou doesn't have to take it to heart. Yao Sanming said indifferently.
"That's good, thank you for your understanding. β
"I see that your losses this time are not small, and there are several brothers who have been seriously injured, is Li Darttou planning to take these people with him?"
Li Changqing was stunned for a moment, probably didn't expect Yao Sanming to suddenly ask such a question, thought about it and said: "Don't hide it from the old man, if you take these seriously injured brothers to dart, not only will it delay the time of the dart, but if there is any danger in the future, they will also become a drag on the brothers, so according to the rules of our Trumen Dart Bureau, the brothers who are injured on the road and cannot move will be placed in the nearest town to heal, and after the rest of the brothers come back smoothly, they will be picked up and returned together." β
After listening to Li Changqing's explanation, Yao Sanming nodded and praised: "Yes, this kind of dart game can make people feel at ease to entrust things to you." β
When Li Changqing heard this, he couldn't help but show an arrogance that could not be concealed: "Our Chumen Dart Game is the largest Dart Game in the Jiangnan area, and it is the only one that can compete with the Lingnan Dart Sect. β
After speaking, Li Changqing changed his words and arched his hand: "Haven't you asked the two honorable names yet?"
Yao Sanming thought for a while, and replied: "The old man's surname is Yao, and his name is not asked, this is the old man's apprentice, called Zhang Shaoyang." β
"Oh, Mr. Yao, Zhang Shaoxia!" Li Changqing hugged his fists in greeting, and his heart was like a mirror, don't ask don't ask, doesn't it mean don't ask?
Li Changqing didn't ask any more questions, and while directing the convoy forward, he pointed to the mountain pass ahead and said: "After this mountain, there is a Wujia town in front of us, where we can rest for the night, avoid the wind and snow, and then continue to hurry tomorrow." β
Yao Sanming nodded: "It's okay." β
After walking forward for a while, a dart master from behind him rode over quickly and said to Li Changqing: "Brother Li, there is a carriage behind us that has been following us for a long distance. β
Li Changqing frowned, glanced at the back of the convoy, and sure enough, he saw that there was a carriage that was very close, and he could see at a glance that it was the one that had been stopped by the bandit leader earlier. "When I was fighting with the bandits, I saw what seemed to be an old man and a child in the car. Zhang Shaoyang also recognized the carriage and said.
Li Changqing nodded, and the vigilance in his heart was reduced: "But it's better to ask clearly, after all, in our line of work, we can't be sloppy in any details, otherwise we may suffer, I'll ask clearly, if it's just the people who pass through the road, you might as well let them follow the team, which is somewhat safe." β
"Li Darttou has a heart. β
"Where, then be away for a while, Changqing will come when he goes. β
When Li Changqing turned the horse's head to ask about the details of the bottom of the carriage, Zhang Shaoyang began to carefully reflect on the subtleties of the 'Sword Forest' just now, and it was only at this time that he had really picked up the treasure.
Although he can't cultivate the inner pill and accumulate internal strength like others, God has given him a natural aura lake, this lake is simply tailor-made for the Honghu Sword, once he has the need, as long as there is a connection with the Honghu Sword, the aura in the lake will continue to pour towards the sword, and these days he has been trying to make the aura play a better role, just the success of the 'Sword Forest', so that his confidence has increased greatly.
It stands to reason that as long as he can absorb enough aura, he should be able to use any move he can imagine, but judging from his current tacit understanding with the Honghu Sword, being able to use the 'Sword Forest' is already the current limit.
Zhang Shaoyang sighed silently in his heart, it seems that his cultivation method is not the same as others!
Although he didn't know how to strengthen the tacit understanding with Honghu Sword for a while, Zhang Shaoyang was not eager to soar into the sky, but wanted to know more about the relationship between Dahu and Honghu in his body.
In addition to this, the extra flying fish sword on the lake is also very strange, usually hanging there quietly, no matter how he senses it, the sword is just lifeless, only when he absorbs the aura, this sword will be a little awake, and what is even stranger is that it can only be attached to the pocket sword to play a role.
Zhang Shaoyang couldn't help but sigh secretly, these things he encountered were really quite individual!
At first, he thought it was just some forms that were conjured up by the aura, but when he found out that the Honghu Sword was suppressing these dragons, it seemed that everything was not so simple.
I don't understand these things, Zhang Shaoyang doesn't bother to think about it, now he only knows that he has two major dependencies, a big sword and a small sword, one near and one far away to attack and one defend, at least he has the strength of one person and one sword to scare away dozens of mountain bandits.
Next, it's time to learn more moves.
"Master, you can teach me some more sword moves, now I always feel that the moves against the enemy are not enough. β
"What's the matter, today's battle is a little passionate?"
"Not really. β
"You kid, even if the old man has tens of millions of tricks to teach you, will you use it if you learn it? This trick is all something that has been figured out in actual combat, so ah, it's better to mix around the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, don't be delusional about picking up ready-made. β
"Do you think about it yourself? Sounds like a sense of accomplishment. β
"Hehehe, let's go, this snow, it's a lot bigger!"
