Chapter 1: Jianghu
Luzhou's No. 1 Dart Bureau "Flying Eagle Dart Bureau" received an order three days ago, saying that it was escorting a caravan to the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, although the road was very long, but the reward was very generous.
Tie Feiying received a fixed amount of 1,000 taels that day.
gold
"This money is hot to hold!"
Above the hall, Tie Feiying looked at the yellow gold on the table and said with a sad face.
"Dad, who is this employer, he is so generous, a thousand taels of gold, enough for ten years!"
Tie Ping'an asked on the side.
This big darthead son looks different from his old man, like his mother, and he is a young man with a beautiful face.
In Lu Zhoucheng, the younger generation can also be regarded as a character, ranking fourth in the martial arts evaluation, young and handsome, I don't know how many women fall in love with him.
The world's martial arts are divided into four grades, and the first-class martial arts are divided into nine grades, and some people are poor, and they only get the nine grades of martial arts. And Tie Ping'an is only eighteen years old, and now he is a little master of the five grades of martial arts.
For his son, Tie Feiying can be said to be quite satisfied, his old son has been in the rivers and lakes for decades, and he has been stuck in the Jiupin martial arts for a long time, I am afraid that this will be the case when he is old.
"I heard that it was the people from the Jianlu side, and they were the only ones who offered this price. ”
Tie Ping'an suddenly looked shocked, Luzhou Jianlu is a well-known existence in the entire rivers and lakes, compared to it, the Flying Eagle Dart Bureau is afraid of an ant-like existence, and a disciple of Jianlu walked out casually, that is the master of the masters.
And those young and handsome men in Jianlu are not interested in the martial arts list of Luzhou City at all, so there are no people in Jianlu on the martial arts list.
"Since you are from the Sword House, why do you want us to be escorted by the Eagle Dart Bureau?"
Tie Ping'an looked puzzled, with the strength of Jianlu, he could discharge a master at random, and he could top a room of people in the Eagle Dart Bureau.
"Although it's a person from Jianlu, it's just a businessman below, and it's normal to ask us to escort it, since you have received this single dart, you have to do it well, this money is hot to hold!"
Tie Feiying, the big man, stood up and returned to the back room as he spoke.
The behemoth of Jianlu is not so comfortable to press on the body, if this single dart is delivered safely, the result is good, and it can rely on this big Buddha, if something goes wrong, I am afraid that there will be no eagle dart game in the future.
Tie Ping'an put away the gold on the table, with an excited face, for all kinds of esoteric issues, he can't think of anything at his age, but fortunately, Tie Feiying still has a lot of time to teach his son slowly.
......
On the third day, there was a long queue outside the city of Luzhou, and thirteen carriages full of goods were lined up one after another, and with the addition of the carriages carrying people, this caravan had seventeen carriages.
The people of the Flying Eagle Dart Bureau were here early in the morning to help, and more than 50 people surrounded the trucks to separate the pedestrians who were watching the bustle, so as not to let the dart owner's goods be tampered with.
"Iron dart head, fortunately, in Xiatong Fugui, is the person in charge of transporting the goods this time. “
A middle-aged fat man with a fat head and big ears, dressed in luxurious clothes, and dressed as a businessman, walked over and negotiated with Tie Feiying with the unique smile of a businessman.
"Brother Tong"
Tie Feiying has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and at a glance, he knows that this person in front of him is by no means an ordinary person, and he is probably the person who can be ranked in the sword house.
After the two greeted each other, they counted the people and goods one by one, and confirmed the route they were traveling, so as to ensure that there was no mistake in the journey.
"Departure"
At noon, after everyone had a brief lunch, the three-month dart race began.
Tie Feiying and Tie Ping'an, father and son, took the lead, and on both sides of the truck were escorted by the dart masters of the Flying Eagle Dart Bureau.
Along the way, the dart masters fart and brag to each other, talking about what happened on the rivers and lakes, and yesterday they went to that place where the wind and snow were happy, and the southeast and northwest pulled each other.
And the people in the caravan were also listening to the bragging, and at the same time they painted those pictures in their minds, fantasizing about how good it would be to be able to roam the rivers and lakes like this one day!
"Grandpa, are those people in Changle Mansion really that powerful? “
In a carriage, there sat an old man and a young man, the old with gray hair, and the youngest one was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, who looked like the kind of little girl who had never been involved in the world.
"Changle Mansion, it's pretty good. ”
The old man seemed to have forgotten, and thought for a long time before he said.
If it is heard by others, the old man is so commenting on Changle Mansion, I am afraid that he will give a mouthful of spit, and if he seriously encounters those pianists of Changle Mansion, I am afraid that he will play a song for you.
Changle Mansion is located in the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and has a great master who occupies the tenth place in the world's martial arts list, and his first-hand piano skills are born into the world.
"Oh, it's not bad, it's pretty good. ”
The little girl nodded ignorantly, not knowing if she understood, and then turned her head to listen to the dart game outside the car tell the story of the Changle Mansion.
The rivers and lakes are like this, maybe one day you will become a story in other people's mouths.
It's just that the more people know about your story, the more famous your reputation will become, so I don't know how many people want to be the protagonist of this story.
......
Broken wall mountain, is a place made by heaven, three sides are cliffs, only one side can go up the mountain, once someone occupies the mountain here as the king, it is definitely easy to defend and difficult to attack, it can be said that once the war breaks out, it is definitely a place where soldiers fight.
Ten years ago, there was a nest of bandits here, ravaging all around, making people complain, even if the government wanted to exterminate them, because of the treacherous terrain, they did not get any good results several times.
It's just that I didn't know that day, the nest of bandits on the mountain didn't know which master they had offended, and the leaders of those bandits were all tied up alive and thrown at the gate of the government, which made the long-suffering government spit out a bad breath that had been held in the stomach for a long time.
And just when they wanted to know who was out for them, a nest of horse thieves appeared in Broken Wall Mountain, and there were many of them. 、
This is really a bad thing and another hegemon.
Just when the government was saddened, news came: "This nest of horse thieves is very strange, and they don't do those things of burning, killing, robbing, and abuse, but do "escorting". ”
It's just that this "escort" is very worthy of scrutiny, no matter who walks by or where, you have to be escorted by this gang of horse thieves, whether you want to or not, you must accept such an escort, of course, after the escort, you have to take the escort fee.
"Damn, this nest of horse thieves is a bit interesting, it's actually a robbery in disguise. ”
"It's just that this kind of robbery makes it easy for those passing caravans to accept, after all, there are too many bandits and horse thieves around this pipeline, and when the time comes, the two sides will fight, and the government will be happy to see it. “
Since then, this phenomenon has existed on this pipeline, with a gang of horse thieves acting as escorts to protect the incoming and outgoing caravans and prevent other horse thieves from coming to rob them.
A strange sight soon spread everywhere, making people talk about it and come to watch it with curiosity.
As time went by, everyone found out that this group of horse thieves who suddenly appeared was too terrifying, and every time the person who took the lead was a master of the seven-rank martial arts, you must know that this kind of person is a well-known figure in any place, but now he is a horse thief here.
It's just that after so many years, no one has seen the leader of this gang of horse thieves, but it is rumored that the leader of this horse thief is terrifying and has the cultivation of a nine-rank martial artist.
"This is a big Buddha from there, who has such strength not to do anything else, and is actually a horse thief here. “
"Pegasus Village" is the strange thief in people's mouth, occupying the broken wall mountain for ten years, almost killing the surrounding bandits and horse thieves, and no one dares to disturb the "business" of Pegasus Village
"Big brother, according to the report from the spies, there is a big deal coming, and one day it will be able to enter our sphere of influence. ”
On the top of the broken wall, the camp built by the bandits has been rebuilt by Pegasus, not to mention the magnificence, but also very eye-catching.
Above the lobby, a big man with a height of about two meters sat on it, the muscles of his chest were as bare as steel, and there were still several old wounds on it.
Li Hu, two meters tall and strong, just like his name, is like a fierce tiger, just sitting there has a momentum of not being angry and arrogant.
And if you feel it carefully, you can feel the bloody smell of murder and talk from him, as if it is the kind of momentum that only a general who has been on the battlefield for a long time and doesn't know how many people he has killed, has condensed into a special "momentum".
It's just that you can know that this person is extraordinary, otherwise you wouldn't have established Pegasus Village, suppressed the surrounding Xiaoxiao, and occupied the Broken Wall Mountain for ten years, so that the government would not dare to attack.
"Big business, I was worried that the brothers had no money to eat meat and drink wine, so I asked Zhao Changbing to take people in person. Li Hu's eyes lit up and he said excitedly.
"Subordinate, go do it immediately. ”
"Wait, let Bai Sheng's kid follow, he has been on the mountain all these years, he should go down the mountain and walk, so as not to be made a nerd by his master. ”
Zhao Changbing is also a ruthless man, he was the one who captured the pile of thieves in this broken wall mountain alive, except for a few masters, the rest of the more than 100 people were all killed by him.
One person went up the mountain alone, and a spear overturned everyone, but few people knew about such privacy.
It can be said that in addition to the owner Li Hu and the mysterious second owner of Pegasus Village, the most feared and admired is Zhao Changbing, who is nicknamed "Cold Face Killing God".
Above the tower of the cottage, a man leaned on the ground with a wine gourd, dressed in black and with a shawl, and beside him was the white spear.
"Third Brother Zhao, the owner of the village asked you to take Xiao Baisheng to take over a big business tomorrow, so that you can bring more people. ”
"Yes"
Zhao Changbing nodded, and responded softly, without the slightest expression on his face, as if there was nothing in this world that could move him, he just continued to drink, looking into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.
Not long after the messenger left, I saw a young man in Tsing Yi come to the bottom of the tower, his hair was well tied behind him, his appearance was very delicate, and his body exuded the smell of books, just like the jade-faced little scholar of that family.
A litter of horse thieves, the appearance of such a teenager, is really unpredictable.
"Uncle Zhao"
The young man gave Zhao Changbing the courtesy of a junior, no different from those outside scholars, and the etiquette was impeccable.
"Did your master let you out?"
Zhao Changbing turned his head to look, and a pair of eyes showed rare fluctuations, as if he wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh.
It's like a teenager, and it looks very funny in his eyes, but it's not funny.
"Godfather has spoken, and it's not good for the master to leave me behind, let me go out with you to see and see, and buy some four treasures of the study room by the way. “
Although the young man spoke very calmly, but those eyes could not hide his excitement at this time, he had been on the mountain for ten years, and he was finally able to go to the mountain next time, how could he not be happy?
"Just laugh like a smile, don't hold back, your master is not here. ”
Bai Sheng was watched by Zhao Changbing, and he had no offspring in his thirties, and he had already regarded the young man in front of him as his own child.
"Hehe, Uncle Zhao still understands me. ”
"Huh"
Zhao Changbing looked at Bai Sheng, whose mouth was about to burst with laughter, and couldn't help but sneer.
If Zhao Changbing, who is known as an indifferent and cold-faced killer, laughs when others see him, I don't know what kind of movement he is going to make.
"Remember to change your clothes tomorrow morning, don't look like a nerd, a horse thief should be a horse thief." ”
"Yes"
Bai Sheng left happily, jumping up and down, like a fifteen-year-old boy, like a child of several years.
"The rivers and lakes, the rivers and lakes, once you enter the rivers and lakes, they are as deep as the sea, I hope you will always maintain this mentality, but what are the absolutes in the world. Reading is a good thing, if I had read a few books at the time, I'm afraid she would have been mine!"
Zhao Changbing was drunk and collapsed on top of the tower, only the spear was still standing, the spear fluttering with the breeze, but there was still something whispering in his mouth, but a gust of wind blew, burying his words in it.
......
On the second day, when a ray of sunlight shone on the earth, the broken wall mountain shrouded in clouds and mist was like a fairyland. Plumes of white smoke rose from Pegasus, and the neighing of horses could be heard from within.
Zhao Changbing stood at the front with a spear in his hand, and beside him was Bai Sheng, who was dressed in black and dressed in a strong suit, carrying a long sword on his back, with a heroic posture.
"Departure"
Zhao Changbing turned over and got on the horse, his legs clamped, and the fierce horse immediately galloped towards the bottom of the mountain, Bai Sheng followed closely behind, followed by a large team of horses, deafening, this line of more than 30 people was dispatched.
They are all well-trained, like an extreme army, well-trained, and none of them have the slightest deviation or backwardness.
Although the cliffs on three sides of the Broken Wall Mountain are steep, the one in front of it is not steep, otherwise Pegasus Village would not be a horse thief, but a mountain thief.
The Flying Eagle Dart Bureau from Luzhou is now less than ten miles away from Broken Bi Mountain, and according to the speed of the caravan, it can be reached in about half a day.
"I heard that there is a group of horse thieves in Broken Wall Mountain, who don't do those things that hurt the heavens and reason, but do things that collect escort fees, and I can finally see them today. ”
Liu Xi'er rode a horse, did not stay in the comfortable carriage, and followed Tie Ping'an's side with a look of anticipation.
"Pegasus's actions are indeed unpredictable, I haven't heard of them doing those things that hurt nature and reason in the past ten years, and they can be regarded as real green forest heroes, in terms of morality in the rivers and lakes, they feel that they are a group of righteous people. ”
In the past two or three days today, only Tie Ping'an and Liu Xi'er are about the same age in the caravan, and Liu Xi'er likes the interesting things about the rivers and lakes very much.
And Tie Ping'an didn't have much resistance to the beautiful embryo in front of him, so he quickly became acquainted. It's just that Tie Feiying once warned him secretly that Liu Xi'er is not an ordinary person, and his identity is by no means ordinary.
"According to the time, the people of Pegasus Village should be waiting for us in front, take out the escort fee, and you will personally send it to their leader when the time comes. ”
Tie Feiying had a solemn expression, although Pegasus Village looked harmless to humans and animals, but the other party did kill the fierce characters of a group of bandits around him.
On the rivers and lakes, the heart of harming people cannot be had, but the heart of preventing people is indispensable.
Tie Ping'an picked up the money bag hanging on the saddle and checked it in his hand, which looked by no means a small amount from the weight.
Spending money to buy peace, whether you can buy it depends on whether you are reluctant to give up, and Tie Feiying is also notoriously willing, otherwise there would be no such big group of brothers under his command.
In addition, the Eagle Dart Bureau has dealt with Pegasus Zhuang I don't know how many times, and I naturally know what to do.
As time passed slowly, the scorching sun was in the sky, and Liu Xi'er also returned to the carriage, looking at her grandfather who was closing her eyes and recuperating, and wanted to catch it.
"Girl, don't make a fuss. ”
"Grandpa, it's so boring"
Liu Xi'er saw that her little movements were seen through by her grandfather, and sat down with a muttered mouth.
"You girl"
The old man looked at his favorite granddaughter with a helpless expression, and she was the only one in the world who could let herself be like this.
Stomp ....
It didn't take long for there to be a violent sound of horses stepping from the front, and Liu Xi'er, who was originally in low spirits, also immediately came to his senses, and hurriedly poked his head out of the carriage, only to see the smoke and dust billowing in front of him, and a large group of people and horses coming here.
"Stop"
The voice of the Iron Eagle rang out, almost overpowering the voice, and the entire caravan immediately stopped. At the same time, those dart masters immediately clenched the sabers in their hands, and their faces were straight.
"Is it Pegasus here?"
"Miss Liu: Yes, please stay in the car and don't come out for the time being. ”
The dart master next to the car replied, looking impermanent, but his eyes were still a little more dignified.
I didn't wait long, I saw a group of people riding fierce horses appear in sight, and at the same time, a murderous aura came from the front, like a fierce tiger, and it was as if I saw the Eastern Han Kingdom, those armies that were fighting outside all the year round.
Those ordinary people who were driving the car had already been shocked by this momentum and remained motionless, and those dart masters were okay, after all, this was not the first time they had dealt with Pegasus.
This is also the usual method of Pegasus, first use momentum to suppress the other party, and when negotiating later, the harvest will naturally be richer. On the other hand, it is also to deter those who do not follow the rules, so that they can weigh whether they can withstand the impact of Pegasus Village.
The old man in the car opened his eyes, as if he was alarmed by the momentum, but he closed his eyes without even looking at them.
"Eagle Dart Game"
In front, Zhao Changbing asked the team to stop 100 meters away, and he rode forward alone and came to the team.
"Brother Zhao. ”
Tie Feiying drove forward, looking at Zhao Changbing, the god-faced killing god, and he was not surprised at all, after all, such a big business, Pegasus Village could not be said to be a character in the town.
"It turned out to be Brother Tie. ”
Zhao Changbing replied calmly.
"Peace"
"Yes, Daddy"
Tie Ping'an drove forward and handed the money bag to Tie Feiying, although he wanted to see this famous ruthless man in the rivers and lakes, but he felt the terrifying momentum of the other party, and he didn't dare to act rashly.
"Brother Zhao, a little bit of iron, I hope Brother Zhao doesn't dislike it. ”
Zhao Changbing took the money bag and weighed it, and then he had a number in his heart.
"Bai Sheng, I haven't thanked the iron dart head yet. ”
When the words fell, Bai Sheng immediately drove forward to take the money bag, and at the same time said with a fist at Tie Feiying.
"Xie Tie Darthead. ”
Bai Sheng got the money bag from Zhao Changbing, but his eyes were looking at the people in the Flying Eagle Dart Bureau.
"A little heart, no thanks. ”
"Go"
Zhao Changbing gave an order, and the people of Pegasus Village immediately turned their horses' heads and walked slowly in front of the caravan, and they had to do things after receiving the money, which was the morality of Pegasus Village.
Crisp and neat, without any mud and water.
At the same time, the caravan also moved again under the greeting of Tie Feiying, and the dart masters also breathed a sigh of relief and began to joke with each other again.
"That's it?"
Liu Xi'er looked dazed.
"We paid the money, Pegasus accepted it, and it was over. ”
The master replied.
For others, this is just a simple escort fee, but it is different for Tie Feiying and Zhao Changbing, and it is also different for Tie Ping'an and Bai Sheng.
"Dad, this Zhao Changbing has a strong smell of blood. ”
After the other party left, Tie Ping'an dared to speak out, and whispered, this is the first time he has seen the other party, if it wasn't for Tie Feiying beside him just now, I am afraid that he would have already fallen off the horse in fear by Zhao Changbing's murderous aura.
"I saw that the young man next to Zhao Changbing just now didn't have it. ”
Tie Feiying saw that his son had recovered in a short period of time, and he couldn't help but be satisfied.
"See, the boy feels strange to me, although he is dressed like a horse thief, but the pungent smell of books on his body cannot be hidden. ”
People who practice martial arts generally hate scholars, just as scholars also hate people who practice martial arts, and the two sides are like natural enemies.
"Peace, today is my father who will take you to walk the rivers and lakes, and when I am not there one day, the burden of the Eagle Dart Bureau will be on you. Remember a sentence, don't look at the surface when looking at people, and remember to think deeper when doing things. Tie Feiying looked at the Pegasus Zhuang boy in front of him and said.
"Don't underestimate any teenager, if you really fight, you can be killed in an instant. ”
Tie Ping'an looked unconvinced, and just wanted to refute, but was suffocated by Tie Feiying's eyes.
"Remember, keep in mind the appearance of that young man, and in the future, when you dart, that young man will come to collect the money. ”
Although Tie Ping'an was young and frivolous, he remembered Tie Feiying's words very much, but in his heart, he had hostility towards Bai Sheng that he didn't even know.
On the carriage, Liu Xi'er saw a young man riding a tall horse, dressed in black, wearing a long sword, and a ranger walking the rivers and lakes.
"So handsome"
"What's the matter, my little girl has a crush on someone else?"
"Grandpa, I didn't. ”
Liu Xi'er's face was flushed, and she was teased by Old Man Liu, and the whole person only felt burned by the stove, but she remembered the young man riding a tall horse in her mind.
Old Man Liu couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he saw his granddaughter being so daughterly, this is just the first time he entered the rivers and lakes, and he was taken away by others, what will he do in the future?
......
"Uncle Zhao, this is the No. 1 dart game in Luzhou, it really can't be underestimated. ”
Bai Sheng felt the terrifying aura of Tie Feiying, which left the first impact on this rumored dart game.
"Tie Feiying can only be regarded as a subordinate among the nine rank martial artists, compared to your godfather, a hundred is not his opponent, don't take the other party too seriously, your world can't stop here, otherwise you will definitely be beaten by your master when you go back. ”
Zhao Changbing said slowly, although the Jiupin martial artist is strong, it also depends on the person.
Bai Sheng knew, but the master said that no matter when, you must have a sense of awe for your own strongman, so that you can learn more things, and you will go further on the road of rivers and lakes, after all, life is the most important thing. ”
The young man looked humble, like a student studying for Zhao Changbing's words, and remembered them as a sage book.
"Awe must be there, let alone lose fearlessness, only by being fearless of everything, can you go further on the road of martial arts. ”
"Well, Bai Sheng keep it in mind. ”
The first time a teenager goes down the mountain, he sees a strong man without losing his heart, which is really difficult.
On the Broken Wall, in an independent thatched house, a scholar sits on the ground, strokes the piano, and the whole person blends into the surrounding environment, like a picture scroll.
In the hall, Li Hu, who was sitting quietly, listened to the sound of the piano, and then looked up to the sky and laughed.
