Chapter 4: Misfortune

After the red scorpion finished speaking, he put a pair of arms on the shoulders of the iron rose and walked up the mountain with the moonlight on his back. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

While Iron Rose followed her, she thought in her heart: She wants to teach me martial arts, help me find Chiyanyu culture and avenge my father, naturally it is very good, even if you give her a sword.

I just want me to live in the mountains forever and be a robber with her, but how can I do it? My father hated robbers the most when he was alive, and my uncle would kill any thief he saw.

We are innocent people, and I am now in a thief's den, and I am living here for the time being to save my life, out of desperation, but how can I be told to go with her in the future to rob and be a thief?

Iron Rose thought so in her heart, but she didn't dare to tell the red scorpion. Because the red scorpion's temper has only become better now, if her own words make her unhappy, and she turns her face into a fierce one, how can it be good?

So Iron Rose endured the anxiety in her heart, deliberately liked it on her face, and deliberately showed her closeness to the red scorpion, and said many words of comfort to her.

The red scorpion, who had been full of bitterness and sorrow, and no one was warm to her, now that she had Iron Rose, she was like a female companion and a sister, and she became very grateful for this comfort.

The two held hands shoulder to shoulder, returned to Maple Leaf Village on the mountain, and when they arrived at home, Na Jiao's mother was already asleep.

The red scorpion went to the kitchen with the iron rose, and while talking and laughing, he heated the food, sifted the wine, and took it back to the north room, and the red scorpion let the iron rose drink with him, and opened a window lattice, so that he could see the autumn moon in the sky.

The red scorpion inquired carefully about the scene in the Iron Rose Banner Gate, and inquired about the story of the two swords.

Iron Rose replied with tears in her eyes, and said that she wanted to go back to Daqimen to have a look, and then go back to the mountain.

When the red scorpion heard this, her face changed at first, but then she thought about it carefully, and said, "Actually, it's okay for me to ask you to go back to Xincai County to have a look, but your uncle will not be able to call you out again." I have never seen your uncle's man, but I have heard that he is extremely hateful, and is dedicated to us in the Green Woods, and it will do you no good to go back and live with him. You can live with me in peace, you will know after a long time, we must be better here than you are. When Ironrose heard this, she was silent.

At that moment, the two of them were drinking and talking late at night, and the red scorpion was already slightly drunk. She asked Iron Rose to sleep with her. That night, the red scorpion slept soundly, and the White Dragon Yin Wind Sword hung on the wall of the outhouse.

Iron Rose tried to get up and run away a few times, but she didn't have the guts, because the moonlight outside the window was as bright as day. After the third watch, the moonlight outside the window dimmed, but the baby kept crying, and woke up the red scorpion.

As soon as the red scorpion woke up, she couldn't sleep anymore, so she talked to Iron Rose until it was getting dark. The red scorpion was still awake, but the Iron Rose had fallen asleep unconsciously.

The next day, when Tie Rose woke up, she saw the red scorpion practicing her sword in the courtyard, and the sword momentum was like a bird turning into an eagle.

After practicing a few sets of swords, she tried her delicate Hidden Arrow again. The sleeve arrow was just hidden in the cuff, and when it was pulled out, it was a bamboo tube more than eight inches long and very thin with flowers engraved, and there was a yellow steel hoop on the top of the bamboo tube, which was a spring.

Another took out a holster from one of his pockets, in which there were a dozen thin and short arrows, but the arrows were extremely sharp and shining in the sun.

The red scorpion hung a small cotton pouch on the wall, like a cigarette pouch, and she stood on the west wall, about five or six feet away, and she struck with arrows one by one.

Her hands rose and fell casually, and she did not have to aim carefully, but in a short time she had struck the dozen arrows all over the little cotton pocket, and the little cotton bag had become a little hedgehog, and not a single one had a hair, and not a single one fell to the ground.

Iron Rose looked at it from the window, and couldn't help but be surprised and envious. The heart said, "Oh, how can her skills be so good?" and she seemed to be very sorry, and thought to himself: A man of great ability, young and beautiful, has become a thief, and has married a fierce and ugly husband, and her husband has not treated her well!

At this time, the red scorpion had put away all the hidden arrows, and she was holding the White Dragon Yin Wind Sword in her hand, and suddenly saw the iron rose in the window, she smiled and beckoned, and said, "Come out, come! I will teach you to practice martial arts!"

The Iron Rose pretended to like it, and ran to the courtyard with a leap of thought, saying, "I haven't washed my face and combed my hair yet!"

The red scorpion pointed to his slightly fluffy bun, and said with a smile: "Who combs it? You see that I haven't combed my hair either, let's practice martial arts first." I'm not talking big, as long as you can concentrate on learning from me, a year's work, I will ensure that you are invincible, and the rivers and lakes will go with you!"

She then danced the white dragon sword a few times, then handed the sword to Iron Rose, and said, "Don't be shy, martial arts are all learned step by step, I learned the sword at the age of seven, and then learned the Hidden Arrow at the age of ten, for these two weapons, I don't know how many times my father has beaten me." My father has a very strange temper, and he has no mercy for his daughter!"

Speaking of which, she couldn't help but miss her father, whom she hadn't seen in five years. Iron Rose took the White Dragon Yin Wind Sword, and her heart was even more sad.

Both of them had their own sorrows in their hearts, and although their faces showed some sadness, they did not say anything to each other.

At that moment, Iron Rose was slightly stunned, holding the sword in her right hand, her left arm stretched out, Tengna under her feet, and the sword light trembled. She had wanted to use her father's swordsmanship, but she changed her mind and thought, "I can't show my martial arts, and if the red scorpion can see it, she will be more wary of me when necessary."

So he deliberately slashed his sword a few times, and then he put away his sword and gasped, and pretended to be ashamed. The red scorpion turned upside down to comfort her, and said with a smile: "Don't be cowardly, as long as you are willing to practice hard, you will soon be able to learn such a skill as me, ...... earlier"

Speaking of this, the red scorpion laughed breathlessly, patted Tie Rose on the shoulder and said: "I heard that Chen Boyu's daughter is a good swordsman, and I am still a little angry in my heart! Now that I look at it, it turns out that you don't know anything about swordsmanship, cough! Why are you so ridiculous? You don't know how to swordsmanship, but you come out with such a good sword to find Chi Yanyu culture and take revenge, how can that be done? Don't you find it yourself to suffer and die?" Iron Rose couldn't help but shed tears when she said this.

The red scorpion smiled again and persuaded her, "Don't cry! Every day I will teach you martial arts, but in the future, don't forget the benefits that your master has done to you!" After saying this, she happily pointed out Iron Rose's swordsmanship, and compared it with the sword as she spoke.

Iron Rose's martial arts were originally rooted, and although what Red Scorpion said was very brief, she understood them all, and she felt even more that this female thief's swordsmanship was really proficient, and it was really comparable to her dead father, and she was not up or down.

Or it is stronger than her uncle Yun Zhanfeng's martial arts!, so her heart changed her mind, and she was no longer in a hurry to go down the mountain and escape, she had to learn swordsmanship from this female thief,...... Especially her Hidden Arrows. Patience lived here for a year or two, and after the art was completed, he claimed the White Dragon Sword again, to find Yu culture and avenge his father.

After staying for a while, Na Jiao's mother got up, and He Ma also came. The two old mothers couldn't help but be surprised when they saw that the red scorpion was suddenly kind to Iron Rose again, and was very affectionate.

The red scorpion taught swordsmanship in the courtyard for a long time, and the iron rose learned it, and the red scorpion liked the iron rose's cleverness very much, so he was even more kind to her.

I didn't ask her to cook anymore, I only asked her to help hold the child, and the two of them ate together during the meal.

Iron Rose called "Aunt Shen" to the red scorpion one by one, but looking at the intimacy between the two of them, it was like a sister.

When Mama He saw this situation, she was very happy, and she was even more happy to wait. But that Jiao's mother was very jealous and hateful, and she was as angry as a toad.

Iron Rose knew that this Jiao Ma was also the wife of a robber, and that she could probably do anything with her fierce appearance, so she did not dare to offend her, and whenever she was told to do something, she must smile first, as if she were pleading.

So two days later, I moved that Jiao's mother to eliminate jealousy, and when she was fine, she was also happy to chat with Iron Rose. From her mouth, Iron Rose knew a lot about the Red Scorpion, and knew that the Red Scorpion had committed crimes in the past few years, and the officers and soldiers in many places were arresting her.

But because her martial arts are too good, and the situation on this mountain is extremely secluded and dangerous, the officers and soldiers can't do anything to her.

Iron Rose came here for about two months, and saw that the red scorpion did not often go down the mountain to rob, but she seemed to have a lot of money, and countless clothes and jewelry; Iron Rose understood that the red scorpion must have committed a major crime in the past, and there was no time to kill many people; so although the red scorpion was very good to Iron Rose, Iron Rose was always vigilant in her heart, and she would never say a word to her if she was sincere.

At this time, the leaves in the mountains were all off, and the north wind was blowing, and it was very cold, and the red scorpion gave two pieces of her old cotton clothes to Tie Rose, and asked Mother He to dismantle and wash them, change them to a smaller size, and wear them for Tie Rose, and still teach Xiuxia's martial arts every day.

The more she taught, the more energetic she became, and the more she learned, the more interested she became. And because the two of them are very busy dancing and striking every day, they forget the sorrow in everyone's heart.

As the days progressed into winter, and the mountains had fallen with heavy snow, and the peaks and mountains on all sides had turned silver, and the sky was as gloomy as black lead, and in the midst of this heavy snowfall, suddenly the god of the Black Mountains returned home on the ninth day.

When the black mountain god entered the door, he was carried by two men, and he wore a large sheepskin jacket, which was as white as snow, but it was stained with blood in a few places.

As soon as the red scorpion saw it, she could not stop weeping bitterly, and talked haphazardly with the men who had come with her husband.

Iron Rose was originally very surprised, and planned to hear who the Black Mountain God was injured by outside? Is it seriously injured? But then Mother He pulled her and whispered, "Hurry up, come with us!"

Iron Rose was surprised, and couldn't guess what it had to do with her. When I followed Mother He to the door, I saw four horses tied to the withered maple tree outside, and the horses all lowered their heads and gnawed on the snow, but no one cared to feed them.

Mother He walked in the snow with Tie Rose, and there was no one in the village. Out of the village, when I got to the hillside, I saw a few thatched huts and stone walls, which turned out to be He Ma's home.

Mother He escorted Iron Rose to the house, and then whispered to her: "Iron Maiden, it was Grandma Nine's idea to protect you here. Grandma Jiu had already instructed me, saying that as long as Grandma Jiu came home, she would let you stay with us for a few days. Because ......"

Speaking of this, she felt very embarrassed and said: "Jiao's mother is a bad person, she is looking forward to the ninth master taking you as a little grandmother."

In that way, the ninth master will be able to live at home for a long time, and he will not go outside to concubine women!

Grandma Nine had planned to do that earlier, but now that you are her apprentice, she thinks you are very good, and she can't bear to spoil you like that, so she asked you to come and live with me for a few days.

The ninth master is not seriously injured, and he will probably have to leave in a few days, but he can't let him see you, as long as he sees it, he will always remember it. Sooner or later, you won't be able to get out of his hands. ”

When Iron Rose heard this, she couldn't help but blush, and at the same time felt very sad in her heart, because she felt that her situation was too dangerous to worry about.

But it is really rare for a thief like the red scorpion to take such care of herself. After Mother He finished saying those words, she instructed Iron Rose again: "Iron Girl, you must live in my house and don't go out." The few people that the Ninth Master brought back this time are also bad boys, if something goes wrong in my family, the red scorpion will kill me!"

Iron Rose nodded again and again and said, "I must not be tired of you!" After a while, Mother He left. The snow was still falling outside the window, and it was dark inside.

Iron Rose sat sullenly, her heart was full of worries, Iron Rose wanted to run but did not dare to escape, she wanted to be here but felt that there were dangers and insults around her from time to time.

Mama He's family has two sons, a daughter-in-law, and three grandchildren, which is very lively.

Iron Rose couldn't help but miss her family after a long absence.

It was getting dark, and the snow was getting denser and denser, and suddenly Iron Rose saw a man jumping from the stone wall outside the window, standing under the snow. Xiuxia was taken aback, and when he looked at it, he saw that it was a woman, and it was the red scorpion.

Standing on the white snow in her red clothes, she looked even more gorgeous, and Tie Rose immediately raised her brows, hurriedly greeted her, and shouted with a smile: "Aunt Shen, you are so beautiful!" Speaking of this, I felt that I shouldn't like it too much. At the same time, the eyes of the red scorpion burst out with fierce light, and his face was very different from before, and he looked at the Iron Rose with his hands behind his back.

Iron Rose couldn't help but be scared in her heart, and hurriedly asked gently, "I heard that the ninth master came back this time, was he injured, I don't know if it's serious?"

The red scorpion glared and asked sternly, "Do you know who killed and injured the Ninth Master?" Iron Rose shook her head tremblingly and said, "I don't know!" Red Scorpion raised her hand, it turned out that there was the "White Dragon Yin Wind Sword" hidden behind her, and Iron Rose quickly took two steps back.

Although the red scorpion raised her sword fiercely, she didn't press forward, so she said sharply: "The one who killed and injured my husband was your uncle Yun Zhanfeng, and my husband's left hand was cut off by him. I am so good to you, but your uncle is harming my family!"

Iron Rose trembled with fright: "I don't know, I've been on the mountain for almost four months, how can I know what my uncle has done?"

The red scorpion's face suddenly softened again, and she came over with a sword in one hand and patted the Iron Rose in the other, and comforted her, "You are so angry with me! Your uncle is so hateful, sooner or later I will kill him and avenge my husband." But I don't hate you, you are a child, and I have only come so that you may know how fierce your uncle is, more than we robbers. In the future, you don't have the surname of his Tie, you can change my mother's surname, and your surname will be Shen!" Iron Rose nodded.

The red scorpion told her again: "Don't be afraid, live here well! I still have to go, cough! Your uncle is so hateful, the ninth master is so painful that he can't even speak, I have to go back and have a look!"

At that moment, the red scorpion jumped off the wall and left, but at this time, Iron Rose missed and admired her uncle Yun Zhanfeng.

What Iron Rose was most worried about at this time was that he didn't know where his uncle Yun Zhanfeng killed and injured Yu Jiutian?

I don't know if my uncle came out to find himself, or to find Yu Wenhua and take revenge?

I tried to find out, but the red scorpion wouldn't let her leave. It was late again, the snow was heavy, and Mama He didn't come back to see him.

That night, Iron Rose had many strange dreams, and the next day she was looking forward to Mother He or the Red Scorpion coming.

But after noon, there was still no trace of He Ma and the red scorpion. The snow outside was still falling very tightly, and the snow in the courtyard was more than two feet thick, and it seemed that the snow seemed to want to fill in this rough valley.

Iron Rose stayed here like a prisoner, unable to think of an idea or a chance.

After dinner, Mother He hurriedly ran back, saw Tie Rose and said, "Iron Girl, go and take a look! The Ninth Master is dead, and the Ninth Grandmother has fainted from crying several times, and no one can persuade her." It's just you, you must persuade you to go!"

Iron Rose was taken aback, her face changed, and she quickly waved her hand and said, "No, I can't go to see Grandma Nine." Grandma Nine came yesterday, and she said that her husband's injury was killed by my uncle, but I couldn't even think of it. But I saw Grandma Nine, and Grandma Nine must kill me!" she trembled in panic.

Mother He was also stunned, and said, "Oh! It turns out that Yun Zhanfeng is your uncle? That person is really powerful, he met Uncle Yu Jiutian in Zhongmu County, and Master Yu Jiutian still brought seven or eight people, they were only two or three."

The Ninth Master didn't provoke him, but he started to do it, not only injured the Ninth Master, but even killed the two allies of the Ninth Master!" and said: "Yesterday the Ninth Master came back, I saw that he was still able to open his eyes, and I thought that the injury was not serious, but I didn't expect that one of his left hands was all gone, it was really miserable! Hum for a day and a night, and only now did he die, and the Ninth Grandma cried so much that she became a tearful person. ”

As she was saying this, she suddenly heard a knock on the door outside, and Mama He paused her words, and looked out of the window in surprise.

Tie Rose hurriedly grabbed Mother He, and said in a panic: "Don't open the door for them, this must be Grandma Nine and they are coming to kill me!"

She shuddered as she spoke. Outside there was still a banging and banging on the door, and several men's voices shouted, "Hurry up, open quickly!"

At this critical moment, Iron Rose had to turn her heart sideways and secretly think: Won't I fight with them? I have learned martial arts from the Red Scorpion in recent months, and my martial arts have improved a lot.

I fight with them, and maybe I can escape. I glared and looked around, but unfortunately there was not a single blade to use in this room.

She hurried over to the house of He's mother's son. All the people in the room were frightened, and the children couldn't stop crying.

The second son of He's mother was named He Xiaoshi, who was only eleven or twelve years old, and he found an iron knife from under the bed, and said angrily to Tie Rose: "Give you the knife, you fight with them!"

Don't beg them for mercy, you are enemies anyway! The red scorpion can spare you, and no one else can spare you, you fight it, I have a slingshot, I will help you!"

Iron Rose looked at the strong young man, and she couldn't help but be surprised, and took the knife.

He Xiaoshi was about to go to find his spear again, but He Mama came in, cried and stopped her son, stomped her feet and said, "Don't make trouble for me!" He Xiaoshi's brothers and sisters-in-law also stopped him.

At this time, the people outside beat for a long time, and when they saw that the door was still not open, two people jumped on the wall, and even the people brought a large pile of snow rolled down the wall. They got up and opened the door, and seven or eight big men outside broke in with steel knives and wooden sticks, shouting in unison: "Aunt He! Get that girl out! She is the niece of Yun Zhanfeng of Daqimen, her uncle killed the Ninth Master, and we have to avenge the Ninth Master!"

Iron Rose saw that there were too many people outside, and although she had a blade in her hand, she didn't dare to step forward to do it.

He Xiaoshi clenched his fist and wanted to hit out, fighting for Iron Rose, but his brother hugged him, and his sister-in-law covered his mouth.

Mother He blocked the door of the house, and when she saw it, except for the two robbers who often followed Yu Jiutian outside, the rest of the seven or eight big men were all acquaintances in the village, and they were all Red Scorpion's subordinates, so she was not so afraid.

She also shouted, "Hey, you boys, don't mess around with me! It was Grandma Nine's idea for the Iron Maiden to live with me, and if you invite Grandma Jiu to come, I will hand over the Iron Maiden." You can't, you don't want to come into my house!"

The people outside said, "Okay, please go, Grandma Nine, please go!" and some people left, but there were still a few people holding knives to block the house. Mother He turned around and whispered to Xiuxia: "Don't be afraid, Grandma Nine is here, I will kneel down and beg her for you!"

In fact, Iron Rose was not afraid at this time. She looked at He Shishi, who was angry and wanted to fight for herself, and said in her heart: Everyone is willing to fight for me, but can't I fight hard? The red scorpion is coming, and I will fight with her! When I was young, someone outside whispered: "Grandma Nine is here!"

Mother He was about to kneel down and beg the red scorpion not to harm Xiuxia, but she saw that the red scorpion was still wearing a bright red dress, with fluffy hair, tears on his face, biting his lip, staring at two poisonous eyes, no sword in his hand, only a leather whip. When she entered the door, she scolded the big men, "Who called you here? Why would you come here without me?"

She swung her leather whip and whipped it the backs of the big men, only to hear "Let's go!!"

Amazing loud noise. Several of the big men did not dare to fight back, and did not even dare to snort, but ran out of the door together, and some fell in the snow and got up and ran again.

The red scorpion beat all those big men away, which was really unexpected by He Ma and others. The red scorpion came into the house panting, and she said to the Iron Rose, "Come back with me, I see who of them will dare to harm you?"

As he spoke, he reached out a hand to grasp the Iron Brier. Although this hand was very cold, it was soft, and Iron Rose couldn't help but be moved to tears, and she cried and said to the red scorpion, "Aunt Shen! My uncle killed your husband, but you are so kind to me!"

The red scorpion was in tears, but she smiled slightly, and her smile was like a peach blossom blooming in the rain. She said softly: "Silly girl, what did your uncle do to kill my man? Don't be afraid! Come back with me! My heart is so uncomfortable now, persuade me!" she said, throwing the leather whip in her hand to the ground, and took out an embroidered handkerchief, hiding her face and weeping bitterly.

Iron Rose also wept, and even the stone was stunned.

Mother and daughter-in-law He persuaded her for a long time, and the red scorpion stopped crying, and then she picked up the leather whip herself, and took Tie Rose's hand and walked out of the door.

At this time, the snow was even greater, and the red clothes of the red scorpion were stained white with snow, and her hair was covered with snow, as if she were wearing a white flower, and her tears were frozen on her face, and her two feet were in the snow, and they became sharp jade shoots. Iron Rose followed her home, and when she saw many of the big men there, they couldn't help but look at her angrily.

Iron Rose saw that although the red scorpion had no intention of killing her, these people hated her human bones, she felt uneasy.

The red scorpion brought the Iron Rose to the north room, and saw the body of the Black Mountain God Yu Jiutian lying on the bed.

The beard, the big black victory, the hairy chest, and the speckled bloody body were like a dead bear, and the red scorpion couldn't help but sobble and weep bitterly when he saw it.

Iron Rose was not sad for the Black Mountain God, but she couldn't help but cry when she remembered her father's tragic murder from this dead body.

The red scorpion patted Xiuxia on the shoulder, and she said, "Rose, let's not cry now! We have to discuss a way, that is, I plan to avenge my husband." Now your uncle lives with Liu Fenghuang in Zhongmu County, and he is accompanied by Hou Wenjun, the dart head of Chenzhou, and Xu Fei, the dart head of Xuzhou, who was killed by them. Tomorrow we will bury the ninth master, and the day after tomorrow we will leave and go to Zhongmu County. Because I don't know your uncle, I need you to guide me, and then you can just tell me who Yun Zhanfeng is, and you don't need you to help me.

After killing Yun Zhan Peak, even if the grievances between the two of us are resolved, we will still return to the mountain to learn martial arts. Otherwise, I won't be able to protect you, because those people under the Ninth Master will have to kill you immediately!"

Hearing the words of the red scorpion, Iron Rose couldn't help but tremble, and secretly thought: What is the matter? She told me to lead and kill my uncle, how can this be done? But when she saw that the red scorpion had finished saying that, she held back her tears, stretched her face, stared at the two fierce eyes, and ordered Jiao's mother and a few minions to change the clothes of the dead body.

Under these circumstances, the Iron Rose did not dare to refuse, nor did she dare to ask or sue her, so she had to retreat to the outhouse and stand still. After a while, a coffin was brought in from outside, and I didn't know where I got the burning paper, so I buried the black mountain god and burned the burning paper, and many minions cried loudly for their ninth master.

The red scorpion seemed to be possessed by a fierce god at this time, and she was no longer sad, so she picked up the white dragon sword and shouted loudly: "Don't cry!" she shouted this sentence, only to see that many big men stopped in unison.

The red scorpion slashed the ground with her sword, paused her lotus feet fiercely, and said, "What are you crying about?" When you finish taking revenge and killing Yun Zhanfeng, you come to cry again, the coffin will stop here, and the day after tomorrow will ......" She glared at the snow fluttering in the court, and suddenly gritted her teeth and said, "Let's leave tomorrow morning!"

As soon as Iron Rose heard that the red scorpion was leaving tomorrow, her color changed, but the big men were very happy. The red scorpion went to the courtyard again, and on a snowy day, she and the big men discussed noisily for a long time, and then the people gradually dispersed.

The red scorpion entered the house and put the white dragon sword in its sheath and hung it on the wall. She asked Jiao's mother to pack her luggage for her, and Jiao's mother was also very excited, and stared at Tie Rose from time to time, but Tie Rose was always pinching a cold sweat. At night, the red scorpion went to bed early, and the child called Iron Rose to hold and pat.

Iron Rose patted the robber's orphan and thought nervously: I must flee tonight anyway, even if I know that they will catch up and kill me, but I must also escape. I hurried to Zhongmu County to find my uncle and two senior brothers, and told them to be on guard.

Because the red scorpion's sleeve arrow is too vicious, as long as she is asked to find it, her uncle will definitely die. At this time, the snow outside the window was still falling densely, and the north wind was whistling, and I didn't know when.

The child was asleep on his arm, and the red scorpion was snoring on the bed. Iron Rose gently placed the child beside the red scorpion, and she tiptoed to the outhouse.

And I saw the terrible coffin parked in the outhouse, and in front of the coffin there were two candles that were about to burn out, and suddenly they glowed with a miserable light. The door was not closed, and there was no one in the courtyard.

Ironrose knew that the minions were all living in the village, and now they must go home and go to bed so that they could walk to-morrow. It's just that when I looked through the crack in the door, I saw that the lights in the south room were still very bright, I wonder if Jiao's mother was asleep?

Iron Rose saw the White Dragon Wind Sword hanging on the wall at a glance, and her heart jumped even more suddenly, but she didn't dare to delay a little, she took off the sword on tiptoe.

As soon as the sword arrived in her hand, she immediately had the courage to quietly blow out the two candles in front of the coffin, and then she gently pushed open the crack in the door and walked out of the house sideways. Walk through the thick snow and walk to the gate. At first glance, the door was closed tightly. She shrugged herself up to the wall, and went up to it, but there was a thick snow on the top of the wall, and the Iron Rose could not stand on her feet, and threw her out of the wall at once, but fortunately she lay on the ground without making a sound.

She hurriedly got up with her sword in her hand, and then a cold wind blew on the ground. The wind blew so hard that it almost knocked down the Iron Brier. The hard wind, the large chunks of snow, and the Iron Rose sore in the face, and her eyes were fascinated.

She struggled and walked in a panic against the north wind, when she heard a sound rise in her ears. She shuddered with fright, stopped her steps, and looked at it in a daze. It turned out that there was a house next to it, and the light from the fence shone very brightly on the snow.

There was a lot of noise in the hut inside the hedge, and there was the sound of dice being thrown in the pot. Iron Rose guessed that it must be the robbers who gambled inside. When she saw two horses tied to a tree in front of the door, and no one was looking, she was at once astonished and delighted, so she crept near, untied one, mounted it, and rode away.

The horse was not saddled, and the body of the horse was white, and it was covered with thick snow, which made it even more white. At the same time, the horse was very fast, scratched the snowflakes with its four hooves, and made no sound at all, and left Maple Leaf Village when he was young. At this time, it is too difficult to find the mountain road, because the mountains, the paths, and even every stone are white, and it can be said that the heaven and the earth at this time are completely colored, and nothing can be distinguished.

Iron Rose urged the horse, and was very anxious, as if it were a random collision, and it took a long time before breaking into a mountain road.

The trail was not too narrow, but it was so winding and steep that the horse could not walk fast. But he was very anxious, and he had to prevent his horse from slipping in the snow.

She held the reins in one hand and the sword of the white dragon in the other, and in the wind and rain, she jumped like a fleeing little beast. After a short time, he walked down the hill and reached the flat land.

The snow on the flat ground was thicker, and she couldn't see anything clearly, and Iron Rose didn't know where to go, so she urged the horse to go blindly.

When he looked back, he saw a flash of fire in the snow on the mountain, and Iron Rose said, "No! They have chased them down!" and urged the horse to go.

But when she had gone a short time, she panicked and fell from her horse, but fortunately there was snow on the ground, and the horse was trained, and when it threw the man down, it stood still.

Iron Rose hastened to her feet, picked up her sword, and sprang up to her horse, and with great difficulty got on her horse again. But then a horse came after him, and the man on the horse shouted, and the voice shook in the cold wind, and he heard it: "Rose, Rose, come back, Rose!"

After running a long way, the Iron Rose could not catch her breath, and restrained the horse, telling herself to gasp, and the horse gasped.

Looking back, there was no fire in the distance behind, and the sound of the red scorpion chasing was gone.

But she still didn't feel at ease, because there was a mountain next to the road, and she hadn't left the dangerous area.

She still urged the horse to go, running for a while, gasping for a while, but never stopping. The villages, the roads, the ice, the bridges, all were white, and there was not a single moving thing in sight.

She was dizzy and the horse seemed to be unable to run, and then she realized that the snow had stopped. In front of her, there was some light in the vast clouds and mist, and she couldn't help but be surprised, and said, "Oh! I haven't taken the wrong path yet! Keep walking to the east, and the sun is coming out!"

He looked back and saw that there was no one chasing him, and the mountain on his left receded from his face. She gasped, pulled out the White Dragon Yin Wind Sword and looked at it, and she was so happy that she wanted to laugh again.

But suddenly another problem appeared in front of her, that is, she didn't have any money with her now.

Zhongmu County is far away from here, and it is not possible to catch up in a day or two;

While urging the horse forward, she was worried. Unconsciously, the sun in front of me was getting brighter and brighter, and I could occasionally see one or two people hurrying on the road.

There was not only snow but also ice on the ground, and the thinner the sun rose, the thinner the snow became, and the thicker the ice became, and the horses' hooves chirped.

At this time, the village houses along the road have appeared in the snow, and the trees "rustle" in the wind and shake the snow on the cold branches. Xiuxia also patted the snow on his body, swept the horse's back, and then held his hand, holding his sword, and headed east.

There was a town before we met, and after that, there were more people on the road. Burden-bearers, backpackers, ox-cart riders, donkeys and horses, all of them walked in the same direction.

The Iron Rose followed them and asked them, "What is this place?"

All the people in the company were paying attention to her, and she was too attention-grabbing. A little girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, with two pigtails tied with a white head rope, can wear a red satin cotton jacket and blue satin trousers.

With a sword in his arms, he rode a healthy horse without a saddle. Then an old man riding on a donkey asked, "Girl, where are you going?"

Tie Rose was stunned, she didn't seem to be able to answer, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'm going to Zhongmu County to find my uncle......

When she said this, she regretted her words and thought to herself, "If there is a man here who is acquainted with the god of Montenegro and has an enmity with my uncle, will he not cause trouble again?" So she quickly changed her words and said, "My uncle is trading there and opening ......a shop." When she saw that everyone was paying attention to the white dragon sword in her hand, she said: "My uncle runs a blacksmith and sells knives and guns, and he also buys knives and guns." Now there is a sword that I have asked me to give to him, and sell it to him, and this sword ......."

She was afraid that she would get into trouble with the sword again, so she said, "It's not a good sword, it's worth ten taels of silver at most." I'm also going to look at my uncle, because I haven't seen him in months!" She couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart, and tears were about to fall.

The people next to him praised it. The old man said: "It's really not easy! A little girl has walked such a long way, but Zhongmu County is still far from here! This is the ground of Wuyang County, and more than 90 miles to the northeast is Xuzhou, and after Xuzhou and then a long way to the north, that is Zhongmu County!"

As soon as Tie Rose heard that this place was very close to Xuzhou, she came up with an idea in her heart, that is, she thought: she will endure hunger and hunger and walk for another day, riding a horse for more than 90 miles, and she will probably be able to arrive in one day, as long as she arrives in Xuzhou.

Although senior brother Xu Fei is now in Zhongmu with his uncle, the people in his dart shop are all friends of his father and uncle, and they will definitely be able to help him go to Zhongmu County.

At this time, there was the sound of horses' hooves behind her, and she hurriedly looked back, and saw that it was four horses, and the people on the horses were all neatly dressed, not like those robbers in Aoziyu. So she asked the old man on the donkey about the path to Xuzhou, and she urged the horse to go.

When he had gone three or four miles, he looked back on his horse, and saw that the ox cart, the man with the backpack, and the old man on the donkey had been left behind, but the four men on horseback had caught up.

Iron Rose could not help but be secretly surprised, for the four men on the horse, though not like robbers, were all strong men in their twenties and thirties, and they all carried knives at once, and they all stared at her with bright eyes.

But Iron Rose was very suspicious, and did not dare to go quickly, so she deliberately let the four horses go over, so that the old man riding the donkey behind him could catch up again. She went with the old man and asked, "Where are you going, old uncle?"
