Green Bee Cottage (3)
After Yan Mubai finished playing, he said to dozens of people in the hall, everyone try to practice and see, if you don't understand something, you can come to me again!"
Fan Xiao said: "They are all scattered to find an open space to practice, no one is allowed to sleep tonight, and they must be familiar with all the moves." ”
Everyone shouted in unison, and they all said yes, and then they came out of the hall in a swarm. Under the guidance of Yan Mubai, Fan Xiao was familiar with the five-style sword moves, but after all, the time was limited, so he had to look like one, Fan Xiao was quite sympathetic, waved his hand to summon a clever ghost who probed his brain, and instructed him: "Take the two of you to the guest room to rest." ”
It is said to be a guest room, but in fact it is just a wooden house, low and hanging, and the window machine is connected by thin wood hollowing, although it is simple, but the tables, chairs, tea sets, basins, towels and bed quilts in the house are everything.
"This Fan Xiao can be regarded as attentive", Yan Mubai shook his head, smiled on his cheeks, and just wanted to say thanks, he heard the little brother say: "Rest early!" ”
The clever ghost laughed twice and said, "Big brother, big sister, you rest early, I won't bother you!"
Yan Mubai was embarrassed, this Fan Xiao was really shameless, he turned to face Qiu Ying'an, only to see her standing still, shy, a few steps forward, without looking at her, a little towards her shoulder, suddenly, Qiu Ying'an turned around and bulleted a few feet away.
Yan Mubai turned his back to her and said: "Miss Qiu, don't mind, the brothers in this village must have no malicious intentions, but the rude people are used to joking, and they have no sense of proportion, and the door will open at dawn tomorrow." At that moment, he put the two benches side by side, jumped on them, and said, "Girl, go to bed and rest, I'll just sleep here." ”
Autumn Shadow lowered her gaze like a soft cloud, and waited for a moment before moving towards the bed.
After a long time, the shyness and awkwardness of the two subsided slightly, and they had not slept for a day and a night.
"Qiang Qiang ~ 唣咣, 唵锵 ~ 咣咣. The sound of gongs and drums crossed the night like a meteor, Yan Mubai woke up suddenly, climbed down from the bench, grabbed the fire and broke the sword and went to open the door.
The doors and windows were tight, he was anxious, his head was raised, he stabbed out his sword, slashed it up, and said in his heart: "It's dangerous at this moment, but I can't care about being polite and thoughtful." ”
As soon as he poked out, Qiu Ying'an caught up and said, "Brother Yan, what's wrong." ”
Yan Mubai then remembered that there was another girl beside him, and immediately said, "Miss Qiu, follow me." ”
When Qiu Ying'an listened to him, he was still calm and heroic, and he unconsciously admired his lover like his lover, and replied softly at the moment: "Yes, Brother Yan!"
As soon as the two of them walked out of the courtyard, they saw dozens of people running out along the outer part of the house, all of them holding wooden halberds and long sticks, swarming by, Yan Mubai grabbed a person and said, "This old man, what happened?"
The stumbling old man took a long breath before replying: "Shaoxia, the government sent officers and soldiers to suppress it, and also brought a lot of good hands in the rivers and lakes, the master of Fan Zhai asked us to take refuge in the mountains first, and then take us out after they were driven away." After that, he raised his hand and shouted to the mother-in-law who turned her head in front of her and stood still: "I'll come, you take your grandson and go first." ”
Yan Mubai let go of his hand and let him pass, then turned his head to Qiu Ying'an and said, "No, you also go to hide with them first." ”
Qiu Ying said, "What about you, Brother Yan?"
"Since I have responded to this Fan Xiao, I will not let him deal with it alone, you hide first, and when it is safe, I will pick you up." ”
Qiu Ying's head warmed up, and she lowered her head and muttered: "I still want to be with Brother Yan, rest assured that I can protect myself and won't cause you trouble." ”
Yan Mubai looked at her softly speaking, and suddenly infinite sadness rose in her heart, and she said in her heart: "I don't know if I can go back alive today, it would be nice if I saw Huan'er again, and I don't know what she is doing at the moment, whether she is still looking for her sister in the city, I haven't returned overnight, but I can remember me." Thinking of this, my heart suddenly sank, "I can't just die here, even if I want to die, I have to die by her side." Gathering his mind at the moment, he nodded to Qiu Ying'an and said, "Then let's go." ”
His tossing and turning, Qiu Ying'an saw it in his eyes, and said that he was a little hesitant for his own safety, and his heart was even happier, and he walked towards the front of the hall step by step behind him.
The black curtain on the horizon overturned, and only the people who were pressed couldn't breathe. I saw that Fan Xiao had already removed her felt hat, a black scarf hanging from her neck, from both ears through, holding a sword in one hand and cuffs in the other, with a nervous look on her face.
Yan Mubai walked over and said, "Fan Xiao." ”
Fan Xiao turned around and said with a little apology: "Master, I didn't expect this officer and soldier to come so quickly, let Fu Yuan take you to hide first." ”
Although Yan Mubai has been with him for a short time, he has a very similar temperament, and said that he wants to fight against the government for the sake of the ordinary people, and he can't help but feel infinitely sad in his heart.
He sighed and made up his mind: "Fan Xiao, since you have worshiped me as a teacher, then I will have to advance and retreat with you and all the brothers, and there is no reason to escape first." ”
Fan Xiao caught him here, he wanted to learn some swordsmanship to resist external humiliation, and there were many people in the rivers and lakes who regarded themselves as chivalrous, but they killed people and set fires, kidnapped people and robbed people, and did all kinds of evil.
He was infinitely grateful in his heart at the moment, hesitated for a while, and beckoned to everyone: "We kneel down to thank my master for his great kindness." ”
Everyone knelt down and said in unison: "Thank you Yan Shaoxia." ”
Yan Mubai was quite embarrassed when he saw this scene, and just wanted to excuse himself, only to hear Qiu Ying say sharply: "My eldest brother is your benefactor who helps today, and if he has the intention of harming the two of us in the future, it will be ungrateful, deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors, and everyone in the martial arts will be punished." ”
Everyone was excited and resolute, and said: "In the future, we will all obey the orders of Yan Gongzi and dare not disobey them." ”
Yan Mubai turned her head and glanced at Qiu Ying'an, only to see her holding her head high, a little complacent, and disgusted in her heart, but she was in a big disaster, but she didn't want to worry about it, so she turned her head to Fan Xiao and said, "What are the number of people?"
Fan Xiao said: "Hundreds of people, according to the investigation of our brothers, there are also three masters in the martial arts accompanying them. ”
After speaking, he beckoned to his subordinates and said, "Take two square scarves." ”
When the man heard this, he turned and strode into the hall, and after a while, he had two more black scarves in his hand and gave them to the two of them. Fan Xiao said: "Master, the girl put it on, so that the people from the instructor's mansion will recognize it." ”
The two of them took it one by one, tied it, and then looked up at it, only to see that everyone had this towel on their faces.
The sound of horses' hooves is getting closer.
Yan Mubai pondered for a moment and said: "This poisonous water sleeve arrow is okay for a short attack, it can't last, and besides, the village is empty, when we will fight, the enemy will definitely flee in all directions, if we hurt our own people, it will be bad, can there be long arrows here?"
"Yes, it's just not much, what do you want to do, Master?"
"How many count, quench the poison and bring it over, and weigh it in a row, block the front, and scare and scare the officers and soldiers. When Fan Xiao heard this, it was indeed reasonable, and someone went to get it at the moment.
After getting it, Yan Mubai finally understood why everyone in the village was good at holding arrows. I saw the long arrows, all of which were handmade, of different lengths, iron arrows, and mottled with rust.
Fan Xiao smiled and said: "I have a lot of robberies and robberies, and there are few things to hunt in the forest, so it is very easy to use a sleeve arrow, this long arrow!" He was a little embarrassed, raised his right hand, and touched the back of his head.
Yan Mubai said: "It's okay, anyway, it's not clear yet, so I can't see anything, just let people line up in a row, and then you can have people remove the doors and windows, cut them into squares with a knife, hand them over to the people in the front row, and expose the arrows." After Fan Xiao did what he wanted, the officers and soldiers just arrived in time. More than 100 people, at the other end of the narrow valley, stand in a neat position, and the green bee village from afar, all holding torches in their hands, everyone held high, shouted in unison, the sound shook the sky, everyone here under the firelight can see clearly, but there are three people dressed in martial arts in front.
Yan Mu covered his face with a white and black scarf, only revealing two eyes that were not inferior to the stars in the night sky, and said loudly: "Standing in front of the martial arts fellows, the brothers in this village are all for the famine people, look at a few people to see, leave me to wait for a way out, after today, we will go to their old business, and be good people!" His voice reverberated back and forth in the empty canyon, as if it was in harmony with this ghostly valley, and a preemptive momentum came out, and everyone present unconsciously felt deafening, and their hearts were a little worried.
One of the officers and soldiers laughed and said: "It's really a joke, when you disturb the people, killing the officials can be regarded as asking for the people's lives." With that, a torch swept through the night and was thrown.
Seeing that the torch was slightly skewed, and was about to smash on the top of Qiu Ying'an's head, Yan Mubai stretched out a hand, a cut, and threw it back, and the torch steadily drew an arc in the air and turned back, among the officers and soldiers, a few people screamed, and it seemed that they had been hit.
The man called, and just wanted to attack, Yan Mubai said: "Everyone can see clearly, everyone here has poisonous arrows in their hands, and now the sky is dark, if we don't care about it, just let it out, and if anyone is rubbed off by the arrow, I am afraid that it will be rotten in an instant, and there will be no good death." As soon as these words came out, the black pressure moved in the darkness, and the shining torches over there took a closer look, and sure enough, everyone in the front row was holding hollow wooden shields, and the arrows were densely exposed.
Yan Mubai continued: "I don't know which of the people in front of me can be the master. ”
