Volume 1 Taking the Sword Chapter 6 Qingfeng Village
Hercules couldn't believe his eyes, this arm had fought with countless masters, fought with all kinds of weapons, and had an iron cloth shirt and magic arm guards, how could it be broken?
But it was really cut off, and Hercules thought for a long time before he suddenly said: "Could it be... Could it be that this sword is some kind of 'Qinghong Sword'?"
Whether he is an arm or a former arm, the reason why it will be determined is because Miyue's sword is different, but it is not the 'Qinghong Sword'.
The leader Hercules was injured, and the killers panicked, Cao Cao and others took the opportunity to fight their way out, rushed out of the inn, and galloped away on horseback.
There are still seven or eight killers left, chasing, or not, Qi asked the leader with his eyes. At this time, Hercules looked at the broken arm with a dull gaze, still immersed in bitter thought and stunned.
After running for sixty or seventy miles in one breath, making sure that the killers had not caught up, he stopped in a small forest. Everyone sat on the ground and relaxed, while the horses were also allowed to eat some grass to replenish their strength.
Cao Cao helped the old man sit down, "The younger generation is not good at riding, and there are many bumps, please forgive me." ”
"Childe is too modest, if it weren't for Childe taking the old man, my old life would have been lost in the inn a long time ago. Cao Gongzi, something happened in your family, you should rush back to your hometown as soon as possible to report the news, so that Ling Tang and others can prepare as soon as possible. Therefore, Gongzi should go to Kaifeng instead of Xuchang, which will delay the journey for a day or two. ”
"The old man is going to Xuchang to join his relatives, and the younger generation should escort him for a ride. Taking Xuchang is also the route of Benpei County, and when the old man is delivered, we will rush day and night. What relatives does the old man have in Xuchang?"
"In short, it's a drag on the son, there is a distant nephew in Xuchang's hometown, but I haven't seen each other for more than 20 years, and I don't know if I can find it. ”
Cao Cao carefully wiped the sword clean and returned it to the little junior sister beside him. Mi Yue took it and inserted the sword into the scabbard.
Li Ru stepped forward curiously and asked, "Little junior sister, your sword is very famous, a sword can cut off the arm of a strong man, what kind of sword is this, so powerful?"
"Yue'er doesn't know what it's called, three months ago, my father handed over the sword to Yue'er, only said that Yue'er has been married since childhood, and repeatedly told him to keep it carefully. “
"It turns out that the little junior sister has promised to marry, which son has this blessing?"
"I don't know this month, I only heard my father say that his surname is Liu, and he hasn't been in contact for more than ten years. ”
"Senior brother, this sword can cut off the strong man's arm, it's really incredible, maybe this sword is the Five Elements Sword that Senior Brother is looking for?"
The old man also joked: "The old man doesn't know martial arts, but he has also seen a lot of swords in Zheng Shangshu's house. Little girl, your sword should have a great origin, but this scabbard is very ordinary, and it doesn't seem to match well. A sword like this should have both male and female, sharing the same scabbard. ”
"Reasonable, reasonable, uncle, you also know the sword? ”
"The old man knows how to swords, guess, guess. ”
"Okay, don't tease the little sister anymore. It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, everyone will rest for a while, and continue to hurry. It's all the elder brother who is not good, let the little junior sister suffer all the way, why don't you send the little junior sister home first?"
Hearing Cao Cao's last words, Mi Yue subconsciously panicked, grabbed Cao Cao's arm, and then quickly let go, her face was also a little red, "Senior brother, Yue'er doesn't feel hard, Yue'er is willing to talk to Senior Brother... and all of you brothers. My mother died early, and my father was busy all day, and Yue'er could only talk to flowers and grass all day long. Since coming to the capital and worshipping the master, she has been practicing and playing with her brothers all day long in the past three months, which is the happiest time for Yue'er. Besides, my father was going to do a big thing and didn't worry about leaving me alone at home, so he found his old friend, that is, Master, to take care of Yue'er temporarily. “
"Then did your father say when he would come back to pick you up? I don't know when this matter will be a head, if your father can't find you in the capital after finishing his business, what should I do!"
As he spoke, a chaotic noise approached, apparently surrounded by many people. Everyone stood up and held their swords, and sure enough, dozens of people came from all around, slowly approaching.
It's not good, could it be someone from Hongmen? It's really ghostly, and it's catching up so quickly?
The encirclement shrank smaller and smaller, and Cao Cao and others were trapped in the center. Mi Yue protects the old man in the center, and Cao Cao and the four of them live in four corners, each other's horns.
The leader of the other party was a middle-aged man, with a round face and big eyes, gray and black robes, a short belt around his waist, and a steel fork in his hand, shouting: "I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, I want to pass by here, and leave it to buy road money." A little minion said happily: "The owner of the village, the little ones caught these horses first, and it happened to be roast horse meat at night." ”
It turned out to be a gang of robbers, but fortunately, it was not the killer of 'Hongmen'. But this is also unlucky enough, running all the way, not even giving a chance to breathe. I really responded to the saying, 'Drink cold water and stuff your teeth'.
"The owner of the village, we are just passing by your land, and the owner of the village has no grievances, and we also ask the owner of the village to make it convenient, so we are naturally grateful. "Cao Cao doesn't ask for many things.
"Even if you are unlucky, you broke into the black pine forest of my Lutou Mountain by yourself, and you don't eat the fat meat you send to your mouth, and those guys in Heihuling are not sure how to laugh at my Qingfeng Village. Without further ado, leaving the horses and money behind will spare you a few lives. “
"The owner of the village, my brothers do have something important to do, they are in a hurry to rush back to their hometown, they can't do it without horses, and I hope that the owner of the village Haihan will be accommodating, and when I finish my work, how about I turn around and thank the owner of the village?"
"When I was a three-year-old child, let you go, how can I come back? Don't toast and don't eat and drink, you go and inquire, my Qingfeng Village has always only robbed property and not hurt people's lives. Even if I let you go, the Black Tiger Ridge in front of me won't be able to let you go, and those guys never stay alive. “
"Looking at the owner of the village is also a good man, the country is in trouble now, and the people are not making a living, why not come out to do a career, but live up to the ability of the owner of the village?"
"Well said. A man's words floated in, and his voice was like a bell, thick and high-pitched.
Everyone turned to see that there were two people, an old man and a young man, both riding black-maned horses, and this was what the young man said.
The owner of the village turned around and looked at the two of them, and with a wave of his hand, the minions dodged an opening, and the old and the young urged the horses to enter the encirclement. The minions looked at the clothes of these two people, and they looked like rich people, and today a Qingfeng village is about to be sent, and the fat has been continuously delivered to the door.
The young man jumped off the horse, came to Cao Cao, and arched his hand: "Brother Tai is right, now that the traitors of the court are in charge, and the rebels are all over the country, even this little thief has come out to harm people, what good life do the common people have? Brother Tai is a hot-blooded person, please ask the surname Gao?"
Cao Cao returned the salute: "Don't dare." Cao Cao is a man in distress, and his brother is willing to wade into this troubled water, and he is grateful. ”
"Well said, well said. The young man turned his gaze to the owner of the village, "Golden fork Shen Qingyang, silver fork Shen Qingfeng, you hold a silver fork in your hand, naturally it is Shen Qingfeng?"
"Who are you, who are you?"
"There is an old acquaintance, I don't know if you still recognize it? Second Uncle Huang, today is really fateful, in this barren mountains and mountains, I actually met an old friend. ”
The old man known as Second Uncle Huang, in his fifties, with a red face and a pleasant face, stroked his long beard under his chin, and clenched his fists with both hands: "Second Master Shen, the old man will teach you the silver fork to make a good move." ”
The old man had a short knife in both hands, fighting with Shen Qingfeng. Don't look at Shen Qingfeng's falling grass, he really has a lot of kung fu, the silver fork rushes left and right, dancing up and down, making the wind whirring. And the old man is not ambiguous, the double knife is like a dragon flying and the phoenix is dancing, and the hurricane is spinning.
The old man was not in a hurry to win, but sent out one move after another, as if showing him a demonstration. The two of them dismantled more than a dozen moves, and Shen Qingfeng was stunned: "You, are you Second Master Huang?"
The old man nodded slightly, "It's Huang Gai." ”
Shen Qingfeng threw the silver fork in his hand on the ground and kowtowed to the ground with his head: "It turned out that Engong had arrived, Qingfeng was really blind, and he didn't recognize Engong." Dare to ask Lord Sun how is his old man?"
Huang Gai said: "Well, you still know the old man." The old alliance leader is very good, this is the young alliance leader, see it soon. "Speaking of a young man, he is the leader of the 'Jiang ASEAN' Young League in the southeast of the country, and the eldest son of the old alliance leader, named Sun Ce.
Shen Qingfeng saluted: "I don't know if the master of the Young Alliance has arrived, Qingfeng deserves death." The Shen brothers are praying day and night for the alliance leader and his old man's life to be 100 years old, and my brothers and sisters have given these two lives to the alliance leader. ”
Sun Ce hurriedly pulled him up, "Hurry up, why don't you see Brother Shen? It's been ten years, right? Why did you fall into the grass in this poor mountain?"
Shen Qingfeng lowered his voice: "Young Alliance Master, this is not a place to speak, please move to the cottage, Qingfeng has something important to report." ”
Sun Ce nodded and said to Cao Cao: "Brother Tai, this is a misunderstanding, please talk about it with the cottage, and let Second Brother Shen ask for guilt in person." ”
After all, after running such a long way, there is indeed some hunger in the stomach, and with the grandeur of others, it is better to obey than to obey fate.
Entering the cottage, the guests and hosts sat down. Shen Qingfeng told the truth.
It turned out that the two brothers killed a local bully in Qiantang when they were young, suffered a lawsuit, and were sentenced to death, but fortunately they were rescued by the 'Jiang ASEAN' and escaped death. A few years ago, the Yellow Turban Army broke out, and Lu Shangshu was ordered to recruit soldiers, so the brothers joined the army and fought a lot of battles with Lu Shangshu.
In the past two years, Lu Shangshu has also won many battles, but the imperial court did not reward him, but demoted Lu Shangshu. It turned out that most of the people in the imperial court, led by Dong Zhuo, did not want to fight a quick battle at all, but used the Yellow Turban Army as a 'cornucopia' to promote and make a fortune.
In this way, the imperial court sat back and watched the Yellow Turban Army grow bigger and bigger. Lu Shangshu was disheartened, so he resigned from his official position and lived in seclusion in Xuchang, and did not associate with any old acquaintances, so as not to be suspicious of the imperial court. The brothers originally wanted to live in seclusion and cultivate the fields in this Lutou Mountain, but they were bullied by the bandits, and in a fit of anger, the brothers took the cottage and became the leader. However, it also robs the rich and the gentry, and rarely harms people's lives.
And there is also a cottage called Zhongyitang in Heihuling on the other side of the mountain, which has always been the enemy of Qingfeng Village, and the two families are constantly in conflict. It is called the 'Loyalty' Hall, and it actually burns, kills, and loots. A month ago, 'Hongmen' sent people to appease the two cottages, Zhongyitang immediately took refuge, and Qingfeng Zhai neither dared to agree, nor dared to refuse, so it has been delaying, 'Hongmen' has already spoken, within half a month, if it does not take refuge, it will be regarded as the extermination of the chaotic party.
Originally, this cottage was also robbed, and it was not distressing to give it up, so the brothers decided to secretly disband the cottage and fled to other places incognito. I just want to say goodbye to Lu Shangshu secretly before leaving, and see the last meeting. So the two brothers sneaked into Lu Shangshu's mansion one night, but overheard a big event.
The brothers saw Lu Shangshu reading a book alone in the study, and were about to break the door in, but suddenly found a black-clothed masked man, entered the adult's study one step earlier, and told the adult that the 'imperial court' had 'decreed', and that the 'Hongmen' would send assassins to wash the Lu Mansion in bloodbath two days later, hoping that Lord Lu would avoid it. The masked man said a few words and left, so fast that it was like a shadow, and it disappeared in a flash.
Lu Shangshu was dedicated to the country, but he wanted to end up like this, and when he heard the news, he was both sad and disappointed, and he was determined to die for the country and never hide from it. My brother and I have a plan to protect adults even if they are broken, so they have been making preparations.
I heard that the other party had helpers, so I investigated around the cottage, and when I saw Cao Cao and others, I looked at the people in the rivers and lakes who seemed to know martial arts, and suspected that it was the other party's helpers, so I caused this misunderstanding.
"Shadow?" Cao Cao asked, "is it not tall and lean?"
"Not bad. ”
"When will the killer do it?" Sun Ce then asked.
"It's tonight. ”
