Chapter 7 Going to the Banquet in Distress

Mr. Cheng was not in a good situation at this time.

Qutang town belongs to Dongyang, there are two roads to go from Dongyang to Luyi, the land route is near, but there are many mountain roads, it is not easy to walk, the waterway is farther, you can go straight down the river, and you can also sail at night, under the condition of good wind and rain, you can get to Luyi in only three days, but it is much faster than the land route.

The Holy Sect has a lot of notoriety in the rivers and lakes, but after all, it is powerful, and it lives in Qutang, and it does not occupy many circles of territory among the sect, and it does not hinder the interests of other forces, and it has always been safe with the various factions of the Central Plains Martial Arts.

It's just that I didn't expect that on the first night, I would be stumped.

He got on the boat before dawn in the morning, did not stop on the way, traveled all the way to Xinglong, ready to dock to replenish supplies and rest, but did not expect to encounter an ambush, dozens of masked black-clothed people suddenly rushed out, using the swordsmanship that could not see the way, taking advantage of the night to raid, not only killed many people on the boat, but also set fire to the boat so that the congratulatory gift was buried at the bottom of the river.

A trace of anger flashed in Mr. Cheng's eyes, knowing that there were not many people who decided to take the waterway, and even fewer people who knew that he would leave in the early hours of this morning.

The dock in the middle of the night was empty and lonely, except for the low groans of the large ships burning on the shore, which slowly and resolutely sank into the river. In the dark night, the masked man in black and the disciples of the Holy Sect wearing black cloaks almost merged with the darkness, and the few disciples of the sect were beaten and retreated, and the red-billed green parrot in the cage looked restless, fluttering its wings and jumping back and forth, quacking and screaming.

Mr. Cheng patted the cage wall to reassure him, then handed the cage to the frightened attendant beside him, bowing his head. "Take care of it!"

Before the words fell, Mr. Cheng had already flown into the crowd and struck a man in black with one palm, and the man fell to the ground and rolled three or four times before he spit out a mouthful of black blood in pain and fell to the ground without a life.

In the blink of an eye, the disciples of the Holy Sect who had already shown their decline had solved most of the men in black because of Mr. Cheng's joining, Mr. Cheng flicked his sleeves in disgust, and when he turned around, he saw a man in black slashing at the entourage holding the birdcage.

"Erdare!" Mr. Cheng shouted angrily, rubbed his body up, and kicked on the back of the man in black, the man in black couldn't retract his momentum, threw himself in front, and rolled into the water with his entourage, the birdcage flew into the air with his hand, the parrot was so frightened that he fluttered wildly, making a piercing cry, the jasper-like feathers reflected the firelight and flew in the air, and a plain white hand stretched out and caught the birdcage steadily.

Mr. Cheng wiped the cold sweat on his forehead in fear, hugged the birdcage in his arms, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid!" When he was rejoicing, there were two black-clothed people who struck left and right, the tip of the sword flashed cold, pointing directly at him, turning and jumping up, dodging the blade of the sword, and withdrawing from the encirclement with a light tiptoe, Mr. Cheng was restrained by holding the birdcage with both hands, so he had to run his body with all his might, dodging left and right, and the battle situation was suppressed again.

Unaware for a while, the cage was cut out of the gap by the sword, and the parrot fell out of the gap in the dodge, screaming and fluttering his wings to fly, but unfortunately the bird that has been in the cage for a long time can not fly even if it can fly, Mr. Cheng saw this and directly threw the bird cage as a weapon to shoot the enemy away, jumped up and wanted to catch the parrot, and suddenly stabbed out a sword to attack his waist in the oblique down, so he had to dodge and dodge, but he didn't expect that the person was just a false move, and stabbed the parrot in mid-air!

The piercing screams came to an abrupt end.

"Thieves and rats!Shameless man!" Mr. Cheng was so angry that he kicked his feet and directly broke the heart of the man in black, catching the poor bird that was cut in half.

"It's too late for the subordinates! Please punish the gentleman!" The people of Xinglong's sect were late, and the remaining black-clothed people saw that there were people to support them, and they quickly retreated.

Looking at the bloodstained bird corpse with feathers in his hand, Mr. Cheng was furious, his eyes were red, and he no longer hated the dirty blood, and grabbed a man in black who was trying to escape in one hand and broke his neck. "Chase! Kill all these thieves! Wait for all the people involved!"

"Yes!"

This night, Xinglong City was brightly lit, and everyone stayed awake all night.

"Sir, disciple reports, 27 of the thieves who ambushed you last night escaped, 31 harbored and shielded, and 16 concealed and did not report, a total of 74 people, all of whom have been ambushed. ”

The head of the sect stood respectfully in front of Mr. Cheng, feeling uneasy, Mr. Cheng had a great position in the Holy Sect, but now he was attacked in his realm, and he also lost Mr. Cheng's beloved bird parrot, and he couldn't help but secretly complain that he would not send it away, it was really unlucky! If he knew who was behind the scenes, after passing this level, he would definitely see that the prince of Xia Ma had three eyes!

"Director Zhao, I don't know how old you are?" After bathing, Mr. Cheng had already changed out of the bloodstained scholar shirt, and put on a splendid dress presented by Director Zhao, sitting in front of the court, his head full of green silk was tied up with a golden hairpin, which became more and more extravagant, his brows were slightly wrinkled, his thin lips were pursed, and his eyes were as bright as stars with a dull expression, and his slender fingers stretched out from the wide sleeves and lightly clicked on the table.

Chief Zhao was puzzled, and he didn't know what to do with this question, so he answered honestly, "There are seven subordinates in the thirty years of this Chinese New Year's Eve. ”

With a chuckle, Mr. Cheng curled the corners of his lips and pretended to say: "Oh? Thirty has seven? Isn't it seventy out of three? I thought that Director Zhao was old and dizzy, and his ears and eyes were not dexterous, and the matter of my attack on Xinglong actually reached the ears of Director Zhao in two quarters of an hour. ”

With a plop, Director Zhao's legs weakened, and he hurriedly knelt down with his hands and bowed, "His subordinates and subordinates were also delayed by those villains!

Mr. Cheng stood up, put his hands behind his back, and slowly paced to Mr. Zhao.

"I don't know what the plan is? What is the next thing to do? I can't tell the priorities of Director Zhao, hey, it seems that Director Zhao is really confused, it is better for me to report to the sect leader for Director Zhao, and let Director Zhao go back to recuperate." ”

Chief Zhao was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he almost fainted, and he used this reason to send him back to the sect, and he didn't know what the fate would be if he fell into the hands of the sect leader!

"No...... Subordinate, subordinate......"

sighed, and waited for Director Zhao to be worried for a while before continuing, "It's a pity that I have something important to do now, so I can't immediately return to the sect to report this matter for you, and I ask Director Zhao for a few days." ”

A few days of grace, a few days of grace, this is another room for turnaround, Director Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, still did not dare to take it lightly, "Don't dare, don't dare, a little little thing, don't dare to delay Mr.'s important business, the damaged ship and congratulatory gifts have been ordered to prepare, it will be all available today, please wait a while." ”

"In this case, thank you to Director Zhao, as for the person behind the scenes, I will wait for the good news of Director Zhao. ”

Although Brother Parrot died, Mr. Cheng was angry, angry, and extremely sad, but he was not a person who would be swayed by emotions, the matter had come to this point, it would be a little tight to delay Xinglong for a day and a night, and then rush to Luyi, so don't waste time on people like Zhao.
