Chapter 61: Why the Sword?

Mu Hantian's deep eyes revealed an inexhaustible tenacity. At all times, he carries his sword with him, and those who know him well know how obsessed he is with his sword and snow without a trace. He rode alone in the northern regions, cold mountains and ice fields, long rivers and snow, constantly searching for the true meaning of the sword.

'Young people should be determined to hold the sword and guard the mountains and rivers. This is what his father told him when he was a child. At that time, the wind of Zhongzhou rangers was prevalent, and Mu Hantian said goodbye to his parents when he was twelve years old, and traveled away from home with many children who had a chivalrous dream, relying on the sword in his hand to act chivalrous and fight unevenly. However, many times he just relied on his solitary courage, thinking that as long as there was a place for him, he would protect all justice.

has gone through a lot, and the faces of the former teenagers have more vicissitudes of time and dust. Many times he will also think about why the Ruoxue long sword in his hand was swung by him, and what kind of responsibility and responsibility it carried.

Lu Yang sat gloomily by the bonfire, holding the bronze ancient sword in his arms, silently thinking. Mu Hantian's words made him understand a lot. These five rangers came here together, and they never thought about their own safety, nor did they think about success or failure. Maybe there is only one goal in their hearts, for the stability of their family and country, with the sharp sword in their hands, they will protect every inch of the rivers and mountains in Zhongzhou from the cruel trampling of foreign races.

These five people sat around at random, cut off wolf meat and burned it on the fire, drank a lot of wine, ate large pieces of meat, and talked and laughed freely. The smile and happiness between their eyebrows made Lu Yang fascinated, the eldest husband was born like this, even if the head of the Ming Dynasty broke the blood, he couldn't live up to the pride of this group of heroes.

Yes, a good man in Zhongzhou, when he holds a three-foot sword, protects his family and defends the country, goes to the edge of Narong, and shows his bloody nature.

This bronze ancient sword, although the ferocity of devouring life in it will make him immersed in killing and unable to extricate himself, but what can he do? When he decides that he wants to use the bronze ancient sword to protect the person he loves, why can't he do everything for his love? As the Zen master he once met without suffering said, the direction of the heart is the right path. Then, he wants to use this power to do everything to protect it, whether it is the people he loves or the pain of his family and country.

Thinking of this, Lu Yang's heart became much clearer, he took the wolf meat, chewed it, replenished his strength, and dipped his fingers to eat a large piece of wolf meat. Fu Chunlei on the side laughed and said: "Zhuang! Lu Yang Xiaoyou! Although my old Lei doesn't know where you came out of the monster wizard, this straightforward personality is quite appetizing to me, haha!"

"If you don't give up, Lu Yang is willing to go to the wolf soldier formation with everyone, and he is always willing to squander for his family and country. He stood up and said with a straight face. Seeing Lu Yang like this, everyone was overjoyed, and they all stood up together, Ding Bingfeng raised the wine bag, and saluted Lu Yang: "Lu Yang's little friend is determined to do this, it is really my blessing in Zhongzhou, the six of us are here today, and great things will be done." ”

"Okay!" Lu Yang took the leather bag refreshingly, regardless of the spicy liquor in the bag, raised his head and dried half of the bag, only to feel that the fire in his abdomen was burning, but it added a bit of indulgence. But there was a poem saying that these six people were chivalrous and happy with each other, and they were heroic. Say:

Chivalrous and heroic, walking away from the border.

And wait for the warm wine on the fire, and talk about the rivers and mountains with you.

The group of six spent the night in the midst of the noise, and when the sky turned bright, everyone mounted their mounts and ran together to the far north, where the wolf soldiers were stationed.

Fang was bright today, but there was a sudden heavy snowfall, reflecting the world of Saibei like silver flowers fluttering, and the stars were flying. The cold wind brought up the white snow, blowing on the clothes of a group of people, although it was cold, but everyone did not care, galloping between the vast cold mountains and snowfields, singing loudly, being in it, only felt hearty, it seemed that all the difficulties and obstacles on the road ahead were not enough to stop their group of six people.

Lu Yang and Ding Bingfeng rode together, and along the road, there were ice field wolves that were active between the ice fields attacking, and they were both discovered by the keen and calm Ding Bingfeng. His longbow and six fast arrows were really accurate and never inaccurate. Before the ice wolves who had suddenly attacked were close to everyone, they were pierced through their heads by Ding Bingfeng's arrows like meteors catching the moon. The crowd cheered, and he just nodded and smiled. But Lu Yang found that he was usually kind and kind, but when he killed those ice wolves, the hatred in his eyes was like facing his life-and-death enemy.

Galloping for a day, everyone was a little tired, fortunately a group of six people found a hidden cave in the wind and snow, it looked like a beast left, but there was no trace of the beast in the four places, and everyone rested here at the moment, making a fire and roasting meat, in order to relieve the fatigue of riding horses all day. Mu Hantian said: "Let's all rest for one night today, I expect that tomorrow we will approach the boundary of Stardew City, according to the news I received, the wolf lord has an army of 170,000, falsely claiming to be 200,000, and the soldiers of Stardew City fought to the death before, they are all good." It was not easy for these wolf soldiers to capture the city, and now that the wolf lord had moved his troops out of Stardew City and continued to move forward, I am afraid that their next target would be Beiyan City. ”

Everyone nodded yes, and Mu Hantian said again: "Beiyan City is the gateway to the north of Zhongzhou, and now the wolf soldiers are menacing, if they really take Beiyan City, then they can go straight down to Yandi and sweep across the Central Plains, and even directly attack our imperial capital Chang'an from Hezhong County." And retreat, Beiyan City is more likely to become an iron wall that they use to block our soldiers and horses. Fang Jinchao despised it, and refused to send troops to rescue, Beiyan City was in danger, once the city was broken, the empire was in danger, and Zhongzhou was in danger. ”

"Think of the tragedy in Stardew City, the people of the city, slaughtered by the wolf soldiers, who used the flesh and blood of our people to feed their mounts. Hang the heads of our generals with spears and hang them high. Therefore, we want revenge, we want to cut off the head of the wolf lord, and use his head to pay tribute to our compatriots who are buried in Stardew City forever. ”

......

That night, everyone extinguished the bonfire and rested, because there were many ice wolves in the snowfield, and they were good at hiding their tracks. Therefore, everyone discussed that there would always be one person outside the cave to keep vigil in shifts to guard against the attack of the ice wolf at any time. At night, everyone was tired and went to sleep, but only Lu Yang tossed and turned, feeling uneasy. He always felt that this time was full of dangers, but it was impossible for them to turn back, because behind them, there were countless people who needed them to protect, even if they were fighting for their own lives.

He walked outside the cave, but saw Ding Bingfeng alone there on duty, he silently rubbed the seven-star eagle dragon bow and six thunder arrows in his hand, heroes like him, on his cheeks, there were tears on his face, clenched a pair of fists, and even his nails were embedded in the flesh.

When hunting the ice wolves along the way during the day, Ding Bingfeng's expression was a little weird, but at this time, he was so sad, but why? Lu Yang sighed, he vaguely guessed that behind Ding Bingfeng's gentle surface and full of spring breeze, he was afraid that he had experienced some miserable experience, and this experience had left an indelible deep hatred in his heart.

Behind him, Mu Hantian woke up at some point, looked at Ding Bingfeng's back and sighed, pulled Lu Yang and walked back into the cave. Seeing this, Lu Yang couldn't help but ask Mu Hantiandao: "I just saw it, Brother Ding cried with a bow in the middle of the night, isn't there something hateful about it?"

"Alas...... He's also a miserable man. Mu Hantian's words carried a touch of unspeakable bitterness, looked at the night sky outside the cave, and said slowly: "Brother Chunlei and I are both wandering in the Saibei Ice Field, and we have had a lot of grievances and grievances with each other, and we are all old acquaintances. He is even more burdened with blood feuds, and his enemy is the wolf lord of the Heavenly Wolf Country. ”

It turned out that Ding Bingfeng was the son of Ding Kamikaze, the guard of Stardew City, Ding Kamikaze was a hero, and he was even more famous in the Northern Regions, and was nicknamed the Six Arrows of Kamikaze. He had a hard bow handed down from his ancestors, and six thunderous arrows, and he was also proficient in the art of war. It's just because he once killed the eldest brother of the current wolf lord and the biological son of the old wolf lord with an arrow in the war between Zhongzhou and the Heavenly Wolf Country. Therefore, when he became famous in the north and mentioned his great name, the people of Stardew City were all respectful.

And a few months ago, the city of Stardew was broken, and Ding Shenfeng's generals died bravely for the country, and he was the only one left who did not surrender in a bloody battle. At the critical moment, in order to preserve the bloodline of the Ding family, in the future, he will seek back the deep revenge of the people of Stardew City from the wolf lord for slaughtering the city. Ding Shenfeng resolutely knocked Ding Bingfeng, who was still strong and strong, unconscious, and put him on the back of his beloved war horse. Let this mount, which had fought with him for a hundred battles, carry Ding Bingfeng far south. In the ruined city walls, Ding Shenfeng fought a bloody battle to the death with the wolf soldiers who broke through the city with his own strength.

The huge door plaque hanging on the city wall of Stardew City was smashed down by a catapult, he fought bravely, lifted this huge plaque weighing thousands of pounds, stood sideways between the city towers, and blocked countless wolf soldiers rushing to the city outside the city gate, the inscription of Stardew City on this huge plaque is the handwriting of the Tang King himself, and now, it is stained scarlet by the blood of the invaders. In front of the wolf soldiers, Ding Shenfeng stood there alone, his armor was shining, like a god descending from heaven, even if there were 200,000 wolf soldiers, they didn't dare to be brave, but they just shouted.

The enemy army fired thousands of arrows, Ding Shenfeng raised a plaque to cover it, took advantage of the situation to rise up with divine power, swept the plaque, and the soldiers who bore the brunt of it were smashed upside down and flew out dozens of feet, so shocked that the thieves retreated. But he was alone, and the enemy army was coming up like ants. In the blink of an eye, his figure was drowned in the sea of people.
