Chapter 15: The Sword Array Shows Its Might
Zhang Xun, who had rested in the carriage by the lake for the night, was the first to wake up in the morning, and after waking up the rest of the people, Zhang Xun and his party continued to move along Taihu Lake in the direction of Jiaxing. All the way to the gate of Jiaxing City, a group of more than ten men and women disguised as a caravan behind him let Zhang Xun know that he and his party had been targeted, and it seemed that the manipulator behind the scenes was not simple! And the opponent seems to see through his plan, and there are obviously many people coming at him.
When they were waiting in line to enter the city, Zhang Xun and the four ladies said: "You see, the men, women, and children who look like a caravan behind them, although they are dressed like that, their subconscious behavior betrays them. This group of people should be coming for us, it seems that the dart is not simple!" Murong Xue asked: "We also saw it just now, how is the husband going to deal with it?" Zhang Xun said: "They don't do it on our way to Jiaxing, first, they are waiting for news from Leng Xiangling and Xiaoshuang, and second, they are still far from Hangzhou City, I think they will choose the opportunity to do it on this road from the time we enter the territory of Lin'an County, which is under the jurisdiction of Hangzhou, until we leave the border of Yuhang County." We will stay at the inn in Jiaxing City tonight, raise our spirits, and use them to make a name for the Five Elements Sword Formation tomorrow. ”
After a while, Zhang Xun and his entourage entered Jiaxing City and found an inn to live in. Although Jiaxing City is not as big as Hangzhou, Suzhou, Yangzhou and other big cities, those people did not dare to mess around in the city, so they could only live in the inn and watch. Zhang Xun studied the route map in the room, so that the Five Elements Sword Formation could maximize its power in combination with the terrain environment. There is an ancient town not far from the junction of Yuhang County and Lin'an County, Luoxin Town, where Zhang Xun believes that it is most appropriate to set up a formation to meet the enemy. This is a small canyon formed after an ancient volcanic eruption, there are mountains, streams and forests, plus the meaning of the town's name to take three gold and fall into the soil, this is a place where the five elements can not be found!
In another small courtyard in the inn, the gang had just waited for news from their employer, and the dart was on the person they were following. So, we also got together to discuss tomorrow's course of action. Don't look at the fact that they are acting together now, in fact, they are all gathered for the big reward. The group consisted of fifteen people and was divided into three groups. A seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy and four slightly older women came from Mingliu Villa at the foot of Huashan, the young man named Xiao Shengwu was the young owner of Mingliu Villa, and the four women were Xiao Shengwu's personal maids, named after the four gentlemen in the four seasons and flowers, namely Chunlan, Xia Zhu, Qiu Ju, and Dongmei. The three brothers of the Jia family, Jia Long, Jia Hu, and Jia Bao are triplets, and they have always been brothers who have joined forces to fight the enemy, and they are also well-known in the martial arts of Qi State. The remaining seven people are only known to be from the Qin State, five men and two women, who call themselves the Seven Heroes of Guanzhong.
At dusk, Leng Xiangling and Murong Shuang, who were easy to pass, rushed to the inn to meet Zhang Xun and his party. After Zhang Xun learned about the situation they encountered in Fuyang, he let them go to rest. Poison, indeed to be cautious, although Zhang Xun is not afraid of the poison of this world, but the rest of the people do not resist poison! Fortunately, in the inheritance of drunken Taoists, there is a book "Poison Sutra", which can be described as the general outline of the world's use of poison and detoxification, Zhang Xun also studied it when he was living freely, and also refined various poison antidotes, and there is no problem in dealing with the poison.
Now that everything is on the bright side, it's time to fight. Early in the morning of the second day, Zhang Xun walked in front with the four ladies and darts, Leng Xiangling, Murong Shuang and the six masters of the Yiyuan Dart Bureau left Jiaxing City and headed for Lin'an. The group naturally followed, but they did not pretend to be a caravan, and they were armed with weapons so that they could use them at any time. Twenty miles away from Luoxin Town, the group finally couldn't help but make a move. It took Zhang Xun an hour to rush to the canyon and set up the formation, but fortunately, now this group of people is only taking the lead, and the real top master has not yet appeared. Let the two sisters Murong Shuang and Leng Xiangling rely on the thunderbolt and the secret weapon of the Tang Sect to stop the people of Mingliu Villa, the two masters of the Yiyuan Dart Bureau stopped the three brothers of the Jia family, and the remaining four masters stopped the seven heroes of Guanzhong. It's only an hour, and they all said that there was no problem, and after agreeing to meet again in Hangzhou, Zhang Xun and the four ladies walked forward.
When he came to Luoxin Town, Zhang Xun quickly explored the terrain and landform on the spot, and found that there was also a temple dedicated to the fire god Zhurong. Zhang Xun decided to face the enemy in front of this temple, but so as not to affect the people living in Luoxin Town, he set up an isolation array not far from the houses of the town under the mountain. Back at the Fire Temple, Zhang Xun said to the four ladies: "Yuchan, your position is in front of this Fire Temple, Xinlan, your position is at the entrance of the bamboo forest, Bihe, you go to the big stone, Xiaoxue, your position is at the end of the stream, and I am at the intersection." Remember, everyone only cares about the people in their own direction, and don't be soft. None of you have ever killed anyone, but the rivers and lakes are "If you don't kill people, people will kill you." ”
Zhang Xun and the four ladies each stood in their own positions, separated by only two or three meters, and this is the natural gathering place of the five elements. If it was here, Zhang Xun believed that even if he went all out with the strength of Murong Ruthless Transformation Realm, he would not be able to break through the Five Elements Sword Formation formed by himself and the four ladies. Half an hour later, the people from Mingliu Villa came, and Zhang Xun and the four ladies immediately met the attack. Originally, it was to wait for work, and the opponent was completely unfamiliar with the formation, and after only two moves, Xiao Shengwu and his four maidservants fell to the ground with a sword and died. Zhang Xun let his four wives rest beside him to relieve the discomfort of the first killing, and he dragged the five corpses on the ground to the fire temple to be placed. After another quarter of an hour, the Seven Heroes of Guanzhong came. They originally thought that the people of Mingliu Villa would come to fight in the front, and their party could make a profit. Who knew that Zhang Xun and his wife didn't want to say that they were injured, and they solved the people of Mingliu Villa effortlessly. Now, there are only seven of them. Zhang Xun saw that there were two women among the Seven Heroes in Guanzhong, and he was afraid that his wife would be soft-hearted, so he would destroy the flowers with his own hands! Zhang Xun greeted the second daughter, and one move was "golden and brilliant", and one move "golden eagle spread its wings" resulted in the life of the second daughter. Xin Lan and the others were fighting with the rest of the martial arts, and Zhang Xun knew at a glance that it was his four wives who were practicing tricks with them! After thirty moves, the four women were familiar with the cooperation of the sword formation and the sword moves, so they killed four with one sword and one person, and the remaining one wanted to run away and was killed by Zhang Xun with a sword. After Zhang Xun dragged the body to the temple again, thinking that it would be male and female to come again, he took out the anti-poison pill and gave it to the four ladies. Sure enough, only a stick of incense had passed, and I heard the laughter of both male and female: "If you don't want to be poisoned and die miserably, hurry up and hand over the things." "The male and female martial arts themselves are not very high, the male demon relies on poison, and the female demon relies on charm. The four daughters of Xinlan were all angry when they saw that Ren Yanping, who was a pretty rakshasa, dared to seduce her husband with her flattering skills in front of her. Especially the two daughters of Bihe Yuchan, who did not break their bodies, couldn't bear it, they didn't draw their swords, and used their fists and feet to deal with this slut. Zhang Xun is five-move golden sword move seriously injured Cui Tiansheng in the poisonous lang, Cui Tiansheng saw that the situation was not good, and if he didn't escape, he was afraid that his life would be confessed here. So he took out the only cigarette holder left for him by his master, the poison man. When Rosemary was released, Zhang Xun and the five of them lost their minds for a short time, and pulled Ren Yanping, who had been beaten beyond recognition by Bihe Yuchan's two daughters, and fled away and found a place to hide and heal.
In less than half a minute, Zhang Xun and his wife came back to their senses and sighed that they were still careless. However, these two are only small characters, and there is no need to care too much. Zhang Xun knew that the opponent would not know for a while that the people sent by him had been eliminated or driven away by his husband and wife, so he went to the bamboo forest to dig a big pit, threw all the corpses down, and then buried them. The four ladies gathered together to summarize the use of sword moves and the coordination of sword formations.
It wasn't until dusk, when the sun was setting, that anyone came to fight again. There are two old men, one was born deaf and the other was born dumb, and they are the "crippled" brothers who are tied for ninth on the list of top masters. Zhang Xun and the four ladies were really challenged at this time, and the two brothers alone were more ruthless than Murong in this world, not to mention that the two joined forces. With 500 moves, Zhang Xun and the four ladies were able to make the sky crippled and suffer a small injury. The two brothers understood that the miss was a foregone conclusion, and there was no point in fighting again, so they performed peerless light skills and left, Zhang Xuncai breathed a sigh of relief. After resting for a while, Zhang Xun untied the isolation array that blocked the town, and left the canyon with the four ladies and headed for Hangzhou.
The journey went smoothly, Zhang Xun and the four ladies came to the outside of Hangzhou early in the morning on the third day, Leng Xiangling and Murong Shuang were waiting for them in the city, and the six masters of the Yiyuan Dart Bureau returned to Huzhou the day before yesterday. The seven people who met together went directly to Du Yuanwai's mansion in Dongcheng District, and handed over the treasure chest to Du Yuanwai.
Out of Du's mansion, just after walking to the street, a small beggar came up with a bowl and begged for money, but it was actually the person who sent the beggar gang to interrogate. The little beggar whispered to Zhang Xun: "Master Zhang, an old man asks you to go to Wangjiang Tower alone to meet him." Zhang Xun handed the little beggar a piece of broken silver, and the little beggar bowed and thanked him before leaving. Zhang Xun said to Murong Shuang: "Xiaoshuang, you are most familiar with Hangzhou, you can take your sisters and them for a good turn! ”
Wangjiang Tower, as the name suggests, is on the edge of the Qiantang River, and it is also one of the landmarks in Hangzhou. Coming to the Qiantang River, looking at the Wangjiang Tower from a distance five miles away, Zhang Xun reminded him of the Yellow Crane Tower in Wuhan in his previous life. Although the Yellow Crane Tower is famous, it is indeed not a monument for a long time, so that he was very sorry in his previous life, and now he sees this antique Wangjiang Tower, which makes Zhang Xun ecstatic. Ascending to the top of Wangjiang Tower, I saw that the old man turned out to be an old beggar he met in Zheng County. When the old beggar saw Zhang Xun coming, he said: "Zhang Xun boy, let's get to know you officially, I am Jiang Zhige, the leader of the beggar gang, who always asks for food." When Zhang Xun heard this, he immediately saluted respectfully and said, "Boy Zhang Xun has seen the Jiang gang leader. The Jiang gang leader asked: "Boy, do you know why I came to you for the old flower?" Zhang Xun replied: "I don't know the specifics, but the kid is expected to have something to do with this dart." Jiang Gang Master praised: "It is worthy of being a genius of Wendao, and his head is smart." I've already instructed the little Hanako below to keep an eye on the outside of the Du, and when there is news, I will send someone to inform you kid. With that, he left. Zhang Xun stayed here to look at the Qiantang River, although it was not the time to watch the tide in Qiantang, but it made him feel comfortable.
