Chapter 12: Defeating the Thief by Mistake
When a thief steals money, what does he do? Either to gamble, or to prostitute, or to eat and drink, no matter what, the money is spent quickly, and it is not left on the person waiting for the real owner of the money to come to him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
But Yang Tian, a thief, was very special, he stole Jiang Liu's money bag, but went to a broken temple. In this dilapidated mountain temple, he was squatting on the ground and watching the ants move.
This temple is located on the slope of the southeast of Honghe Town, because it is unattended and in disrepair, the head of the mountain god is missing, and only a dusty body stands there desolately. In this era of war and chaos, people can't eat enough, who will come to worship these useless stone statues?
Xiao Congwu followed Yang Tian all the way, and originally wanted to quietly solve this call with a sword, but before his feet stepped into the temple gate, he had already heard Yang Tian's laughter.
Yang Tian squatted on the ground, looked at Xiao Congwu at the door with a smile, and said, "The second son of the Xiao family is so idle, do you want to come and see the ants move together?"
Xiao Congwu was taken aback, this Hanako actually knew his identity, and he would never let him live. He drew his sword and said coldly, "You know in your own heart that I am going to kill you today." As soon as he finished speaking, a sword stabbed at him.
Xiao Congwu used the third move in the dragon swordsmanship, "Jiaolong Vertical Tail", Juxian Villa is powerful in the martial arts, and the owner Xiao Tiance is a miracle in the world, and the family dragon palm and dragon swordsmanship are extremely powerful, and there are few matches. He deliberately killed this caller, and he would not tolerate mercy.
Yang Tian didn't know the reason why Xiao Congwu killed him, and when he saw him, he was furious in his heart, and said in his heart: "Why is the son of Old Ghost Xiao so unreasonable." With a slight leap, the sword fell into the air.
Xiao Congwu's one move failed, and the three moves such as "Green Dragon Out of the Water", "Swimming Dragon Crossing the Sea", and "Canglong Playing in the Water" were used one after another, all of which pointed to Yang Tian's vital point, virtual and real, only to see the sword shadow heavy, surrounding Yang Tian layer by layer. Yang Tian slid lightly under his feet, one step to the left, one step to the right, and then turned around, and with a gesture, he avoided Xiao Congwu's swords lightly and skillfully.
Xiao Congwu became more and more surprised, since his debut, he had never encountered such a fierce opponent. He tried his best, and the dragon sword technique was frequent, but he still couldn't hurt Yang Tian in the slightest. Yang Tian only defended but did not attack, and after a few more moves, Yang Tian saw a flaw, and used a "jade girl shuttle" in "Eighteen Falls in Clothes", and his palm hit Xiao Congwu's right forearm. Xiao Congwu felt that his forearm was sore, and he couldn't hold the sword anymore, and with a "boom", the long sword fell to the ground.
Xiao Congwu thinks very highly of himself, and feels that he is already the leader of the younger generation, but he didn't expect that he couldn't make a few moves in a single hand, and he suddenly felt hit and disheartened.
Yang Tian defeated him, and most of the anger in his heart had disappeared, and said, "Why do you want to kill me, this kid?"
Xiao Congwu has already understood that he has recognized the wrong person nine times out of ten, this person's martial arts are extremely high, if the person in the grass is him, why should he escape. Of course, he couldn't tell the truth, so he only arched his hand and said: "The junior is the wrong person, he offended the senior, and he asked the seniors to forgive him." ”
Yang Tian came here to protect his grandson by Xiao Tiance, although his grandson didn't know each other very well, he couldn't embarrass him. He thought for a moment and said, "That's it, you can go." You have only learned the skin of your grandfather's kung fu, so don't be embarrassed outside in the future. ”
Xiao Congwu said: "Now that I have lost, half of the reputation of Juxian Villa has been lost to me, if I don't even know the name of the enemy, I can't explain it when I go home and ask my father." Then he said: "I don't know the name of my predecessors, I can go back and tell my father, and I will come back to ask for advice later." ”
Yang Tian waved his hand and said, "Get out, when you go back, you will talk about the old people of Huainan, and your father will naturally know." ”
Xiao Congwu was furious in his heart, no one had ever dared to speak to him like this, this was a great shame for him. Although he can't beat him now, this revenge is recorded. He secretly determined that one day, he would make this old man kneel and beg for mercy. But all he could do now was pick up the sword on the ground and flee in disgrace.
Yang Tian sighed, and saw the river flowing in from outside the temple. Yang Tian didn't seem to be surprised at all, he found a slightly clean place to sit down, leaned against the Buddha shrine, tried to make himself more comfortable, and then quietly watched the river.
Jiang Liu circled around him several times, looking at Yang Tian like a monster, and Yang Tian didn't speak. There was a stalemate for a while, and finally Jiang Liu couldn't help it and asked, "I saw a boy carrying a sword to kill you, why are you still alive?"
Yang Tian smiled and said lazily: "I have no grievances with him, why did he kill me?"
Jiang Liu looked at Yang Tian suspiciously, and since Yang Tian didn't say it, he didn't ask anymore. It's just that the money bag that was stolen by Yang Tian must be taken back. He stared at Yang Tian and said, "Old man, let's not talk darkly, and return the money bag to me." ”
Yang Tian sneered: "This son, when did I take your money bag? Could it be that if I ate your leftovers, you came to me to ask for money? But that was what you voluntarily gave me to eat, not to mention that I am just a flower child, if I want money, I will die." ”
Jiang Liu was very angry, he couldn't imagine that this name Hanako would not admit it, but just being angry couldn't solve the problem. He thought to himself: "This Yang Tian can actually steal his money bag unconsciously, his kung fu should be quite good, Xiao Congwu has just returned from the feather, he should have suffered his loss, I'm afraid I may not be his opponent." ”
He thought about it for a long time, and felt that it was better to outwit and be reliable, and he would not do it until he was forced to do it.
Yang Tian looked at Jiang Liu coldly, and he had already moved to kill in his heart, and said, "If this kid wants to do it, it is to find death." I ate a meal from him, and let him die a happy death. ”
Jiang Liu stayed for a long time, suddenly opened the package, poured everything into the ground, and said to Yang Tian: "Look, I don't have any money?
Yang Tian stretched his waist and said lightly: "I didn't steal your money, so how can I take revenge?"
Jiang Liu suppressed the anger in his heart, packed up the things underground, and then said loudly: "You must not know, I put some medicinal powder in the dishes you ate, and eating them is very bad for the stomach." ”
"This kid actually wants to use this method to deceive me?" Yang Tian thought to himself, he suddenly felt that this kid was a little silly and cute, and couldn't help but want to tease him. He had a very frightened expression on his face, and pretended to be sad, "Is the powder you said a kind of poison? I'm going to die? You save me!" After saying that, he laughed out loud.
Jiang Liu quietly waited for Yang Tian to finish laughing, took two steps closer to him, slapped his palms lightly, and said, "Old man, you acted really well." Do you think it's fun to tease people?" he was angry in his heart, and he stopped speaking politely. "To tell you the truth, after I take this medicine, I cry for an hour and laugh for an hour every day, and the most important thing is that once the drug is attacked, the whole body is soft, lazy, and I don't want to move. After Jiang Liu finished speaking, he paused, and suddenly smiled. He said to Yang Tian: "I feel that the medicinal properties in your body are about to attack." ”
Yang Tian also smiled, he has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, if there is poison in the food, he can see it at a glance. But looking at the fox-like cunning smile on Jiang Liu's face, he actually felt a little furious in his heart. So he quietly ran the internal force, and soon he found that the internal force could not be condensed, and the entire dantian was empty. Yang Tian was horrified in his heart, he was really poisoned.
Yang Tian couldn't figure out how to get poisoned, he sighed softly: "I have lived for decades, but I didn't expect to capsize in the gutter." Tell me, boy, who the hell are you?"
Jiang Liu knew that his plan had succeeded, and said happily: "Haha, to tell you, my name is Jiang Liu." ”
"I haven't heard the name. Yang Tian looked around from his memory, but there was no name Jiangliu.
Jiang Liu smiled: "I just came out of the house, my home is deep in the mountains, naturally no one knows." ”
Suddenly, someone on the side clapped their hands and laughed: "Someone will know about it in the future." Jiang Liu was startled, and following the sound, he saw a Taoist priest walking out from behind the statue. This Taoist priest was in his forties, with his hair in a bun, a flat mixed yuan hat, and a blue-blue Taoist robe, which was tattered and had many patches sewn.
Yang Tian glared at the Taoist priest and shouted, "Wu Fatong, Wu Lao Dao, you are finally willing to come out." It turned out that he had known that this Taoist priest was hiding behind the statue.
Wu Fatong looked at Yang Tian with a smile and said, "I am fascinated by watching dramas, and each play is more exciting than the other, and I don't want to come out." Then he stretched out his thumb to Jiang Liu and said with a smile: "Boy, there is really you, the 'flying thief' Yang Xingtian is planted in your hands." ”
"So his name is Yang Xingtian?" Jiang Liu frowned, "What is 'Flying Thief'?"
Wu Fatong looked at Jiang Liu in surprise, looked up and down carefully, and said, "Don't you know the 'Flying Thief'?" turned his head and said to Yang Xingtian: "Haha, look at it, people haven't even heard of your name." ”
Yang Xingtian only smiled bitterly, he was not a small heel, and the most important thing was that he didn't know how he was poisoned.
Jiang Liu was confused and said strangely: "I have lived in the mountains since I was a child, and I don't know anything outside. Is the 'Flying Thief' powerful?"
Wu Fatong smiled: "Yes, amazing." Yang Xingtian is a famous thief in the rivers and lakes, he once robbed hundreds of households at night, and there is nothing he can't get his hands on. His light skills are 'like a shadow' and varied, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get close to him. ”
Jiang Liu's face showed such an expression, and he secretly said that he was lucky. Before leaving the valley, Zhou Junqian told him to be cautious at all times, but he didn't take it very seriously, and felt that his father-in-law was exaggerating. It was nonsense to put medicine in the meal, but the money bag did sprinkle a kind of medicine powder called "Wuhua San", which was made by Jiang Liu from five kinds of strange flowers in the valley.
The fragrance of "Five Flowers Scatter" is very light, and the smell is refreshing, and its fragrance lingers for a long time. Jiang Liu has been mixed with all kinds of birds and animals since he was a child, and his sense of smell is extremely sensitive, and he found this mountain temple by following the fragrance of flowers. Later, he hid a white medicinal powder in his nails while packing his baggage, and when he was close to Yang Xingtian and clapped his hands, he released it from his nails. After inhaling this medicine, the reaction will become sluggish and unable to lift the qi, but the effect of the drug is very short, and it can quickly return to normal, and there is no harm to the human body. Yang Xingtian is a first-class master, and it was originally very difficult to poison, but because he didn't take Jiang Liu, a rookie in the rivers and lakes, in his eyes, he relaxed his vigilance and inhaled a little of that powder.
Zhou Jun often has insomnia, so Jiang Liu developed this medicine to help Zhou Jun sleep, and the effect is excellent, Zhou Jun jokingly called it "lazy medicine". However, this medicine is extremely difficult to refine, and it needs to be boiled together with more than ten kinds of exotic herbs such as anchovy grass, orchid grass, jasmine grass, and soothing grass in the deep valley, and these grasses are extremely difficult to find, so the amount of production is very small. When the river flowed out of the valley, Zhou Junquan was wrapped in the river. Originally, I hoped that when Jiang Liu's snake venom attacked, he would alleviate his pain, but I didn't expect it to come in handy here.
Jiang Liu rummaged through Yang Xingtian's arms, and sure enough, he found his money bag and pulled it over with his hand.
Wu Fatong and Yang Xingtian have known each other for many years and have a good relationship, if Jiang Liu takes the opportunity to make a move, he can't stand by and watch. Therefore, he was already prepared to take action as soon as something went wrong.
Jiang Liu didn't make any other moves, only took his money bag. He was afraid that Yang Tian would recover his strength at any time, so he didn't dare to stay, so he smiled at Wu Fatong and left in a hurry.
Wu Fatong looked at Jiang Liu's distant back, and said to Yang Xingtian: "Alas, that kid is gone, what should you do with the poison?"
Yang Xingtian smiled and said, "Old Dao, when did you care so much about me?"
Wu Fatong had a schadenfreude expression and said with a smile: "We have been friends for a long time, and I have always cared about you." Hey, I can't figure out why you're doing something to this country kid?"
"If you care about me, why don't you ask that stinky boy to ask for the antidote?" Yang Xingtian thought so in his heart, but he couldn't extinguish his prestige, and said: "You don't have a good brain, of course you can't get through." This person is very concerned about Zhang Jidao and his party, and he is very suspicious. So I wanted to test if it was an assassin sent by the adversary. I didn't expect this kid to be really evil, I actually fell for him. ”
Wu Fatong said with a smile: "I just found out that you are also here, the Hehuai Alliance wants to form an alliance with the Shangqing faction, and I was afraid that you would make trouble, but I didn't expect you to protect you in the dark." ”
"The Hehuai League wants to form an alliance with Shangqing, which is equivalent to Zhu Wen wanting to join forces with Qian Biao, which is naturally a great disadvantage to my eldest brother Yang Xingmi. Yang Xingtian sighed and said with a wry smile: "More than ten years ago, Xiao Tiance saved my life, I owe him a favor, and I promised to do one thing for him." But I didn't expect that what he wanted me to do was to protect his two sons and sons for half a month. ”
Wu Fadao: "I see, you Yang Xingtian is really a man, you do what you say, and Lao Dao admires it very much." ”
Yang Xingtian sighed: "Actually, I know Xiao Tiance's intentions, I will protect them, my eldest brother will not attack them in the past few days." Otherwise, the masters of the Hehuai League are like clouds, so why bother looking for me. ”
Wu Fatong praised: "Gao Ming, Xiao Tiance's trick is really clever, killing two birds with one stone, with you, who would dare to cause trouble? He can naturally rest easy." ”
Yang Xingtian said: "In the past few days, my task has been completed, but I am afraid that my eldest brother will have a deeper prejudice against me." ”
"Well, why bother yourself. If you don't do it as a serious prince, you have to be a screamer, and you will be full. Wu Fatong pointed to Yang Xingtian's clothes and said with a smile: "Look at you, your clothes are much tattered than the last time I saw you, I almost can't recognize them." ”
Yang Xingtian felt a trace of desolation in his heart, and sighed: "I've been pretending to be a metamorphosis for many years, and I'm used to it. Although the palace is good, it is indeed my sad place, and the broken intestine is at the end of the world, alas, ......"
Wu Fatong shook his head and said, "Don't mention your sadness, can you still get up? ”
Yang Xingtian said strangely: "Do you still have the heart to drink?" Zhang Jidao and they are waiting for you. ”
Wu Fatong shook his hand and said with a smile: "It's not waiting for me, Lao Dao just came out to play and play, and by the way, he was just a bodyguard." ”
Yang Xingtian stood up and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, then let's drink now." ”
Wu Fatong wondered in his heart: "Is Yang Xingtian poisoned?"
