Chapter 15: The Road Sees Injustice and Fights the Four Ghosts

When Wu Fatong and the others went far away, Jiang Liu came out of the shadows. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info The rivers and lakes are sinister, and he doesn't want to stay here anymore. Jiang Liu touched the burden, and the letter from his father-in-law Zhou Jun was still there. He thought that he should hurry to Chenzhou and hand over the letter to Zhang Huiqin, but he had a matter on his father's mind.

With this in mind, he straightened his clothes and strode forward. At this time, it was late at night, and the crooked moon hung high in the sky, staring coldly at the road ahead of the river. He walked all the way, and he didn't rest, after walking for more than ten miles, Jiang Liu suddenly felt unbearable pain in his heart, he knew that it was the recurrence of snake venom, so he had to stop and rest for a while.

At first, Jiang Liu only felt pain in his heart, but then the pain spread little by little, and then his lower abdomen also hurt, as if a knife was slowly cutting in his stomach. With each cut, the pain increased by one point, and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he rolled on the ground, scratching his hands everywhere. After a long time, the pain slowly passed, and Jiang Liu's whole person was about to collapse, lying on the ground softly, panting heavily. waited until dawn to slowly recover.

After some tossing last night, Jiang Liu's clothes were covered with mud, and after walking more than ten miles, he saw a steamed bun shop and bought a few large meat buns. He was so hungry that he only felt a good taste when he ate it. After dark, Jiang Liu will find an inn to rest, so Xiaoxing will stay overnight, and after a few days, he will reach the boundary of Chenzhou.

On this day, Jiang Liu was only in a hurry and missed the hotel. The more he walked, the more anxious he became, and when it got dark, he found himself in the heart of the mountains and forests, and he thought to himself that he was going to sleep in the mountains again. I didn't know that after walking a few miles, I saw the fire shining in front of me from a distance, and when I got closer, I realized that someone was cooking on a fire, and the smell of meat could already be smelled from afar.

Jiang Liu was overjoyed, and hurriedly walked forward, only to see a large cauldron in the middle of the woods, and the pot was boiling. There are four people in Tsing Yi sitting around, two of them are wearing square scarves, they are older, about forty years old, and the other two are about thirty years old, but they are wearing shawls, and under the reflection of the firelight, the faces of the four people look gloomy.

Seeing Jiang Liu coming over, a man in Tsing Yi wearing a square scarf said coldly: "Who is coming?"

Jiang Liu clenched his fists and smiled: "Four brothers, I am a passerby, I am hungry now, I saw that the four of them were cooking on the fire, so I came to ask for two bowls of broth." ”

The four Tsing Yi people glanced at each other, and the Tsing Yi people who asked at the beginning said, "Boy, what's your name?"

"River. "River Stream.

"Jiang Liu?" the man in Tsing Yi frowned, obviously not having heard the name.

Another man in Tsing Yi wearing a square scarf who was sitting opposite this Tsing Yi man suddenly showed a fierce look on his face and shouted, "Do you know who we are?"

Of course, Jiang Liu didn't know, and replied truthfully: "When I first came out of the rivers and lakes, I didn't know the four heroes. ”

The first man in Tsing Yi laughed, stared at Jiang Liu and said, "Uncles are the four ghosts of Jiangnan, have you heard of our name?"

The "Four Ghosts of Jiangnan" are four green forest robbers, who are active in the Jiangnan area all the year round, blocking the road and robbing darts, killing people and goods. Because he killed too many people, he was called the "Four Ghosts", and the Four Ghosts were not ashamed, but proud, and often called themselves by this name.

"Oh, the kid is young, and he hasn't heard of the prestige of the four heroes, but when he sees the four extraordinary spirits, he must be well-known figures in the rivers and lakes. Jiang Liu complimented him first, he didn't know what the "Four Ghosts of Jiangnan" were, but when he saw that the faces of the four people were gloomy and their eyes were fierce, he knew that they were not good. He just wanted something to eat, and as for who they were, Jiang Liu didn't particularly care.

Thousands of people in Tsing Yi listened to Jiang Liu's words, his face really softened, and he said with a smile: "Boy, you have a little eyesight, I'll introduce you to you." ”

"This is my eldest brother, the 'big ghost' Han Fangji. He pointed to the second man in Tsing Yi who spoke.

Jiang Liu clenched his fists and said, "I've seen a hero." ”

"Big ghost" Han Fangji bowed slightly, "hummed", and said coldly: "This word 'chivalry' is extremely awkward to hear. The famous and decent family has always regarded himself as a benevolent man, but he doesn't know how many shady things he has done behind his back. It's like our four ghosts, even if they kill people and sell goods, they are always frank and fair. ”

Jiang Liu nodded yes, but said in his heart: "What kind of person are you?" ”

"I am the 'second ghost' Liu Yanji. "The first Tsing Yi man introduced himself. "Over there, it's my third brother 'Three Ghosts' Ma Zhongji, and that one is my fourth brother 'Four Ghosts' Zhao Mengji. ”

Jiang Liu hugged his fists and said hello one by one, not daring to call him a "hero" anymore, and changed his name to "hero". He is a hero, and the four ghosts he calls are very useful, and in the past, whenever anyone sees these four ghosts, they all run away in horror, for fear that they will escape slowly and their lives will be lost. This young man is bold and can talk again, and the four ghosts gradually like this young man a little.

Jiang Liu saw that the hostility of the four ghosts had subsided, so he was not polite and sat down cross-legged. I saw the "three ghosts" Ma Zhongji reaching out and grabbing the boiling soup pot, the boiling water had no arms, but he didn't have anything to do. Jiang Liu applauded in his heart: "These 'three ghosts' are really profound. ”

The "three ghosts" had the intention to show their skills, and after touching the pot for a long time, they fished out a bone, shouted at the river, "Catch!" and threw the bone over.

Jiang Liu was already hungry, so he took the bone and gnawed it, and the bone reached his mouth, only to realize that something was wrong. On closer inspection, this turned out to be the shin bone of a human calf. Jiang Liu's heart was horrified, and as soon as he let go of his hand, the bone fell to the ground.

"Four ghosts" Zhao Mengji "snorted" and said, "Stinky boy, why don't you pick it up quickly?"

Jiang Liu knew that they were cooking human bones, and suddenly remembered that he was almost steamed and eaten when he was a child, but fortunately Zhou Jun rescued him. His heart was full of anger and he was about to flare up.

I heard the "second ghost" Liu Yanji laugh beside him: "Boy, you have a good mouth." Tonight, the uncles didn't find the beast, so they slaughtered the two palanquin men who passed by, and only cut off the well-boiled hands and feet to make soup, which was very delicious. He paused, and then pointed behind him: "There is also a fresh chick in the sedan chair, if the master is happy, he will give it to you as a daughter-in-law." After that, the four ghosts laughed together.

Jiang Liu looked behind him, and sure enough, he saw a small sedan chair with the curtain closed, whether there was anyone or not, but it was unknown. At this moment, he was filled with righteous indignation, he couldn't bear it anymore, Huo Ran stood up, and shouted: "It's better to wait for the beast!" flew up and kicked on the cauldron, the cauldron flew, the soup splashed out, and the "four ghosts" dodged one after another.

The pot tumbled in the air, "clattered", and finally fell upside down on the ground. When the "four ghosts" saw that the broth was destroyed, they scolded one after another. The "Four Ghosts" Zhao Mengji was the most short-tempered, picked up his big axe from the ground, and scolded in his mouth: "Little Wang Ba Lamb, take your life." "I cut it with an axe, and it was magnificent, and it was a move to "split Huashan".

Jiang Liu knew that he couldn't be good tonight, and he was already ready. This axe was so powerful that he didn't dare to take it hard, he dodged sideways, and the long sword shot out and stabbed Zhao Mengji's ribs, which was exactly the style of "falling geese and sinking sand" in the "Danxi Sword Technique". Zhao Mengji never expected that Jiang Liu's martial arts were so strong, he was shocked, and turned around, but he was able to avoid this sword, but his clothes were poked with a big hole.

Zhao Meng was very careless about the enemy, and was torn by a yellow-haired boy, and he was annoyed and angry. With a swing of his big axe, he slashed at Jiang Liu, Jiang Liu jumped up in the air and stabbed Zhao Mengji in the chest, Zhao Mengji dodged to avoid it, only to see the figure flashing, and the two fought together.

The other three ghosts didn't expect that a hairy boy could fight with the fourth child, and they were all surprised. "Big Ghost" Han Fang has the highest martial arts, most of the swordsmanship used by Jiang Liu has not been seen by him, and occasionally recognizes one or two moves of "Tianxiang Swordsmanship", and he said: "Is he a subordinate of Tianxiangmen?" It turns out that Zhou Jun's "Danxi Swordsmanship" is originally a family tradition, not passed on to outsiders, and Zhou Jun rarely walks around the rivers and lakes, and few people know about swordsmanship. Therefore, although Han Fangji has a wide range of experience, he only knows the "Tianxiang Sword Technique", but he does not know the "Danxi Sword Technique".

Jiang Liu's body is elegant, tossing and turning, Zhao Meng's huge axe flies, and he is also a tiger and a tiger. After a little more fighting, the river has gained the upper hand. Since he came out of the valley, he has not been able to show his skills except for the battle of the latrine. Zhao Mengji was full of brute strength, and after a long time, he was inevitably impetuous, and his follow-up was weak. On the contrary, Jiang Liu became more and more relaxed, and in the end, it was as if he was practicing by himself, and the subtleties of the moves that he usually couldn't understand suddenly opened up. After a few more moves, Jiang Liu was already victorious, he saw a flaw, and slashed at Zhao Mengji's neck with a sword.

Zhao Meng was greatly shocked, and the big axe struggled to block it, but Jiang Liu suddenly changed his move, and the long sword slid down and slashed at his wrist. The other three ghosts were frightened and shouted in unison, and the hidden weapon of the "big ghost" "Cloud Piercing Arrow" shot out, and the long whip of the "two ghosts" also swept towards the river.

Although the "big ghost" and "second ghost" shot extremely quickly, they were a step too late after all. I only heard the "four ghosts" Zhao Mengji scream, his wrist fell, and blood splashed everywhere. At the same time, Jiang Liu's body flew by, avoiding the attack of the "big ghost" and "two ghosts".

The "Three Ghosts" Ma Zhongji had a deep brotherly affection, and hurriedly jumped over and hugged the "Four Ghosts" Zhao Mengji, and shouted anxiously: "Fourth brother, fourth brother!" and hurriedly tore off a piece of the clothes on his body and wrapped the broken wrist.

The "big ghost" and "two ghosts" missed one blow and attacked together. The "big ghost" Han Fang gathered the ghost head knife, and the "second ghost" Liu Yanji used a seven-section whip, one left and one right, the knife cut and whipped, one move was more ruthless than the other, one move was faster than the other, and the river flow that only hit was embarrassed. "Second ghost" Liu Yanji scolded while beating: "Niang Xipi, the uncles are kind enough to entertain you, but you will take revenge and hurt my fourth brother, and if you don't cook you to eat, you can't solve the hatred in my heart." ”

The martial arts of the "big ghost" and "two ghosts" are much better than the "four ghosts", the two of them attack together, the river is miserable, and there is no time to speak, only the ability to parry, and there is no power to fight back. Fortunately, although his martial arts skills are not as good as those of the two ghosts, his light skills are much better than them, so he can barely support them and not lose quickly.

Rao is like this, it is also full of dangers, Jiang Liu was a little negligent, the "two ghosts" Liu Yanji's long whip had wrapped around Jiang Liu's right leg and calf, and the "big ghost" Han Fang saw the opportunity and cut it down with a knife. The river flow is unavoidable, raise your hand to block, "sonorous", the swords intersect, the river can't resist, and the body staggers. The "two ghosts" Liu Yanji's long whip was pulled, and Jiang Liu couldn't stand and fell on his back.

At the critical moment, Jiang Liu's left foot gathered all his strength to kick the ground, and his body flew up in the oblique stab, breaking free from the long whip, which was able to avoid this fatal knife and fell far aside.

"Big ghost" Han Fangji saw that Jiang Liu was desperate, and couldn't help but praise: "Good boy, good kung fu!" But he didn't know that Jiang Liu had done his best, and now he had become the end of a strong bow, and he couldn't parry it if he slashed it again. The "second ghost" Liu Yanji's seven-section whip was about to be shot out, when he suddenly heard the "big ghost" Han Fangji exclaim: "Second brother, look, the tiger's den is on fire." ”

"Two ghosts" Liu Yanji looked up, only to see the northeast fire, dyed the sky red, and couldn't help shouting: "Oops!"

"Big ghost" Han Fangji was anxious and shouted: "Let's go quickly, I'm afraid it's too late." "Turn around and go.

"Second ghost" Liu Yanji turned around and instructed "Third Ghost" Ma Zhongji: "Quickly hug the fourth brother and follow me." At that moment, the "second ghost" Liu Yanji and the "third ghost" Ma Zhongji held the seriously injured "four ghosts" Zhao Mengji and followed the "big ghost" Han Fangji and hurriedly left, and they couldn't care about the river, and the four of them walked away cleanly in an instant.

Jiang Liuwu was frightened, if it weren't for the broken wrist and big axe of the "Four Ghosts" Zhao Mengji, Jiang Liu really thought that he had just had a dream.
