Chapter 12: The First Actual Battle
Poria and Yang Yan also felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere around them, and they also looked at the carriage, only to see a middle-aged man lazily driving the carriage, holding a bottle of wine in his hand and drinking constantly.
"Heavenly Rank Martial Artist" Yang Yan felt the aura on this person's body, and he was a little surprised in his heart. This was the first heaven-level martial artist Yang Yan had seen when he came to the world.
"Yang Yan, do you think this is the Flying Dragon Dart Bureau?" asked Poria with squinted eyes.
"It should be" Yang Yan looked at the people around him staring at the carriage, with a eager posture, as if he saw fragrant and gluttonous fat.
"There's a good show to watch" Poria pulled Yang Yan to the side of the road, looking like watching a play, and the war was about to break out.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and a pair of men and horses ran over and stopped the carriage moving forward. Led by a middle-aged man in military uniform, followed by about two dozen soldiers.
"Shang Fei, why are you here?" the officer at the head asked loudly.
The middle-aged man named Shang Fei in the carriage looked at the formation in front of him, got up leisurely, jumped out of the carriage, and said: "It turned out to be Lord Xiang Rongxiang, the captain of the Yecheng Guard, Shang Mou came to get some wine", saying that Shang Fei poured the empty wine bottle in his hand.
"Someone, give Mr. Shang a jar of good wine," Xiang Rong commanded loudly, but his eyes were staring at Shang Fei.
I saw that the soldier immediately brought up a large jar of wine and put it on Shang Fei's carriage, Shang Fei glanced at Xiang Rong, looked around at the people who were staring at him, and said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: "Thank you, Lord Xiang."
"Mr. Shang, everyone, can you sell Xiang's face and leave Yecheng, your grievances and grievances, the government doesn't want to interfere" Xiang Rong thought about Shang Fei and the surrounding crowd arched his hand and said.
"Shang is naturally giving face to Lord Xiang, if they don't go, they won't know if they are down" Shang Fei said and jumped into the carriage and began to turn around, the people around him glanced at each other, and began to leave one after another.
There was only one person in the crowd who didn't want to leave, and a pair of eyes stared at Poria Cocos, who also noticed it and glanced at the person.
"Poria Cocos, this Ye Ming is really obsessed with you," Yang Yan glanced at the person staring at Poria upstairs and said.
This person is Ye Ming, who followed Yang Yan and them all the way that night, thinking that he came for the treasure, but this person's focus seems to be wrong, and he has been staring at Poria cocos.
"Yang Yan, hurry up, they're all gone, and they won't be able to catch up with the show for a while. This person will teach him a lesson in the future," Poria said, pulling Yang Yan and going out of the city.
"Wait a minute, don't care about Ouyang Quan?" Yang Yan asked, stopping Poria from asking.
"Yes, where's our guide?" said Poria, looking around for Ouyang Quan's figure.
"Wait a minute, I guess we won't be able to fight for a while, I think they all want to fish in troubled waters," Yang Yan said.
While the two were talking, Ye Ming had already walked over to Poria and them, Poria frowned slightly, and whispered to Yang Yan: "This person is a little annoying, Yang Yan, you beat him"
"What should I do if I get hurt?" Yang Yan was stunned for a moment and asked in a low voice.
"What are you afraid of, as long as there is a breath here, I won't let him die," Poria said with a smile.
At this time, Yang Yan looked at Poria Cocos like a little devil, if he offended others, it would be fine, but it would be a big deal to die, offend Poria Cocos, a person with superb medical skills, beat you half to death and cured you, and then beat you half to death.
Yang Yan thought of this, a chill rose up in his spine, and he looked at Ye Ming, who was slowly approaching, with a trace of sympathy in his eyes.
"Miss Poria, let's meet again" Ye Ming walked up to the two of them and said with a smile.
"Yang Yan" Poria didn't answer him, but also called Yang Yan.
Yang Yan also shook his head helplessly, and then flew and kicked it, how did Ye Ming know that Yang Yan would suddenly make a move, but years of experience as a martial artist made him fly back a few steps and dodge Yang Yan's attack.
"Heavenly Rank Martial Artist" Yang Yan only felt Ye Ming's internal force, which was similar to himself, and he was a little surprised in his heart.
Ye Ming on the side was also stunned, looking at Yang Yan, a trace of incredulity flashed on his face, "Tianjie, how old is he?" Ye Ming thought in surprise in his heart.
"Follow me again, be careful that he will beat you," Poria said playfully.
Only then did Ye Ming know that his behavior had disgusted this girl, and then he shook his head and said, "I didn't expect the little brother to have such martial arts at such a young age, Ye Ming admires it." But I didn't mean to disturb the girl, I just wanted to make friends with the girl."
"Make friends?, yes, but you have to do us a favor" Poria looked at Ye Ming and thought about it.
"What's the hurry, as long as it's what the girl needs, it's incumbent on you" Ye Ming's eyes lit up, it turned out that it was so simple to know this girl, it was better to know it directly.
"We want to see what that treasure looks like?" Poria looked at Ye Ming with big eyes and said slowly.
"It turns out that the girl also came for that treasure?" Ye Ming asked.
"No, we just want to see what the treasure looks like, so we won't rob it," Poria replied with a shake of her head.
"Hmm......" Ye Ming thought about it, and didn't answer Poria Cocos's words.
At this time, Ouyang Quan walked towards the three of them from a distance, Ye Ming glanced at Ouyang Quan, and then said: "Yes, at night, the broken temple three miles outside the city, I will wait for you there"
As soon as Ye Ming finished speaking, he turned around and disappeared into the crowd, Ouyang Quan looked at Ye Ming who was leaving, and doubts arose in his mind.
"What is he doing here?" Ouyang Quan walked up to Yang Yan and the two of them and asked.
"We're going to see what the treasure looks like," Poria said with a smile.
"Hmm, you're not afraid of getting into trouble, do you know who is behind this Shang Fei?" asked Ouyang Quan leisurely.
"I don't know, we just see what the treasure looks like, and we don't rob it," Yang Yan said slowly.
"Aren't you curious about what this treasure that everyone wants to grab looks like?" asked Poria with a smile.
"Whatever you want, I just brought you to Yunjing Yang's house, as for what you want to do, I don't care. Just to remind you, the water of this treasure is getting muddy and muddy," Ouyang Quan said.
"Don't worry, we'll give it back to him when we see it, and then we'll go to Yunjing," Poria said.
"Then let's go," Ouyang Quan said and walked towards the carriage, followed by Poria and Yang Yan.
"Yang Yan, in fact, he also wants to know" Poria glanced at Ouyang Quan behind her and whispered to Yang Yan.
"It's really curious, everyone has it," Yang Yan shook his head.
The three of them left Yecheng and set off in the direction of Yunjing, and saw many people with swords along the way, thinking that they were chasing the treasure.
When night fell, the three of them drove the carriage to the ruined temple three miles away, but the ruined temple was not as lively as imagined, and the warriors who saw along the road did not know where to go.
Ouyang Quan parked the carriage in the broken courtyard, and then followed Poria into the broken temple, where there was a pile of firewood, which was burning, and Shang Fei was sitting next to the fire drinking wine.
Looking at the three people who walked into the ruined temple, Shang Fei squinted his eyes, took a sip of wine and asked leisurely, "You are also here for the treasure?"
"We just want to see what the treasure looks like, and we don't rob it," Poria said.
"Those who fought the idea of this treasure died, and those who fled, and you dared to send it to the door. Let's go down the one above," Shang Fei said leisurely.
"Uncle Shang is really good at martial arts" Ye Ming's voice sounded in the broken temple, and then Ye Ming jumped off the roof and slowly walked into the broken temple.
"You two also want to wade through this troubled water?" Shang Fei stood up and glanced at Ye Ming, and then at Ouyang Quan.
"Uncle Shang, I have no intention of getting involved in this troubled water, I am just curious, what is it that your Flying Dragon Dart Bureau is escorting this time, which actually caused the martial arts to shake" Ye Ming said with a smile.
"It seems that your father didn't know that you ran out," Shang Fei looked at Ye Ming and said solemnly.
Ye Ming smiled awkwardly and replied, "My father doesn't know yet."
"Let's go, don't ask about it again, I shouldn't have seen you," Shang Fei finished and sat back on the ground and began to drink.
"I'm afraid Mr. Shang doesn't know what he's escorting," a female voice suddenly came from outside the broken temple.
Shang Fei put down the wine jar, slowly stood up and walked to the door of the broken temple, and Yang Yan and the others also went out.
At this time, there were three people standing in the courtyard, led by a woman in her twenties, dressed in white, embroidered with a few simple patterns with gold thread, and beside her stood two young men of the same age.
One was dressed in green clothes and black hair, carrying a spear on his shoulder, and the other was purple-clothed and white-haired, with his hands on his chest, and the three of them were looking at Shang Fei who came out.
When the woman in white saw Ye Ming and Ouyang Quan, she was stunned at first, and whispered, "Why are they here", and then a smile regained on her face, but when she saw Yang Yan coming out behind her, she was stunned.
The three of them stared at Yang Yan at the same time, standing there blankly, Ouyang Quan, Ye Ming and Shang Fei also glanced at Yang Yan curiously.
Shang Fei was a little strange and asked, "Do you know him?"
The two men just wanted to speak, but they were stopped by the woman in white, and with a smile on their faces, they said, "I don't know, I don't know if Mr. Shang knows the dart?"
Shang Fei glanced at Yang Yan again, shook his head and said, "The younger generation of Shang doesn't know much, but everyone in the Blood Shadow Guard knows him."
"Mr. Shang, can you hand over the things, we can go back and hand them over," the woman in white asked politely.
"Shang doesn't want to offend the Blood Shadow Guard, but if Shang wants to escort him to Yunjing safely this time, then he can only offend you," Shang Fei said slowly.
"Then Xintong is offended," the woman in white saluted.
As soon as the words fell, Shang Fei and the three of them fought, Yang Yan knew that these three people could not beat Shang Fei, and a heaven-level martial artist was against three earth-level superiors, which was a matter of time.
While he was fighting, Ye Ming said leisurely: "I didn't expect Yan Xintong, Yun Zhengqing, and Shen Yue of the Blood Shadow Guard to come, no wonder the eldest brother didn't let me come."
"What are you talking about Blood Shadow Guard?" Yang Yan asked curiously.
"The Blood Shadow Guard, which belongs to the Yang family, is composed of outstanding disciples of the young generation of the Yang family, and it can be regarded as a first-class force in the rivers and lakes," Ouyang Quan said slowly.
"Yang family, should I go and help?" Yang Yan thought to himself.
Ouyang Quan seemed to see through Yang Yan's thoughts, and whispered: "You'd better not go, Shang Fei is a long-established mid-rank martial artist of the Heavenly Rank, and the Liuhe Sword is so good that he can't kill them."
"Could it be that Brother Yang Yan has a relationship with the Yang family?" Ye Ming asked, looking at Yang Yan when he heard Ouyang Quan's words.
"Sort of" Yang Yan replied slowly, and then whispered in Poria's ear: "I'll help in a while, let's leave here first."
Poria nodded, Yang Yan glanced at the three who were gradually defeated, the sword was unsheathed, and they joined the battle, this move caught Ouyang Quan and Ye Ming a little off guard.
"What does he want to do?" the two colleagues asked anxiously as they looked at Poria, who shook her head as if she were hungry, and then looked at the battle in the courtyard with interest.
"Boy, are you looking for death?" Shang Fei saw that the three of them were gradually defeated, and his heart was relaxing, but he didn't expect Yang Yan's joining to change.
Yang Yan slashed out with a sword, separating the three of them from Shang Fei, looking at Shang Fei with an angry face, the blood on his body was boiling, and he was a little excited, after all, this was the first real battle since he learned martial arts.
"Heavenly Rank Lower?How is it possible?Boy, how old are you?" Shang Fei felt the power of the sword just now, and was a little surprised in his heart.
Yang Yan didn't know how old he was, so he could only shake his head and say, "Let them go."
Shang Fei was stunned, he didn't think about killing them, he just injured them, and couldn't move for ten days and half a month, saving him trouble later.
Looking at the young man in front of him with interest, Shang Fei thought for a while and said, "Let them go, promise me two conditions"
Yang Yan thought for a while and said, "You say"
"First, the Blood Shadow Guard can't harass me anymore, and second, you have to be my apprentice," Shang Fei said slowly.
When he saw Yang Yantian's skill and such a young age, Shang Fei had already thought that he must accept such a talented apprentice and carry forward the Flying Dragon Dart Game.
"Don't promise him," the woman in white said loudly, spurting out a mouthful of blood.
Glancing at the injuries on the bodies of these three people, Yang Yan didn't speak, I don't know why, Yang Yan felt that there was a trace of respect and piety in the eyes of these three people looking at him.
"His master is here, why do you want to rob my apprentice?" Seeing this, Poria was a little angry and said loudly.
Yang Yan was embarrassed for a while, when did he become Poria's apprentice, Poria didn't teach him anything, and he couldn't learn alchemy.
"Little girl, I want to see what skills you have to teach him" Shang Fei said and attacked Poria Cocos, Yang Yan was about to stop him, but unfortunately his speed couldn't catch up with Shang Fei's.
Seeing that Shang Fei was about to rush in front of Poria, but Poria still had a smile on her face, Shang Fei felt that this girl was a master for a moment, but what happened next made him deny this ridiculous idea in his heart.
"Ah, Yang Yan, beat him" Poria screamed and quickly ran away.
Yang Yan couldn't catch up, but Ye Ming on the side stopped Shang Fei, the two of them each took a few steps back, Shang Fei looked at Ye Ming and said, "Hmph, you meddle again, don't blame me for not giving your father face"
Ye Ming also scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Uncle Shang, it has nothing to do with this girl."
"Hmph" Shang Fei snorted coldly, and then looked at Yang Yan and asked, "Have you thought it through?"
Yang Yan didn't think about it, a sword was across his chest, he decided to try the power of the "Seven Absolute Sword Techniques", it was difficult to meet a master, and he didn't feel a little itchy on his hands.
The people present really saw the sword in Yang Yan's hand clearly this time, and the golden scabbard was printed with a flowing water-like shape.
"Why does this sword look familiar?" Ye Ming looked at the sword in Yang Yan's hand and whispered.
