The old man walked away. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info walked down more than twenty miles, and the four horsemen in front of him were already far away, and they were out of sight.

But Iron Rose was on guard against the back, fearing that the red scorpion would chase after her, so she gradually drove her horse away, left the old man on the donkey, and walked northeast along the avenue. After walking another twenty or thirty miles, he passed Yuncheng.

It was past noon, the sun was peeking out of the clouds, the snow was melting on the ground, and the road was very difficult, but there were more people.

From last night until now, Iron Rose has not eaten water in her belly, and she can't help but be hungry and thirsty.

At the same time, the horse it was riding was tired and hungry, and no matter how much it pulled its mane and beat its back crotch, it would not walk quickly, and after walking a few steps it would stand still, and keep its head down to gnaw at the snow on the ground.

Iron Rose was very anxious, thinking to herself, how can this be good? If I can't catch up with Xuzhou today, I don't even have a place to live. There is no penni around, and there is no forage for the horses, so it is okay if people don't eat it, but if the horses don't eat it, what can it be? And always looking back and looking back, I always feel as if the red scorpions are going to chase after them.

After a short distance on, he saw another city. Inquire about the people on the side of the road, it turns out that the front is Linying County, and after Linying County is Xuzhou.

Iron Rose was even more anxious, but the horse that sat down could not go quickly, and she felt dizzy and weak, but she had no choice but to struggle to go down. After a short walk, they came into a village where there were many big dogs, and when they heard the sound of horses' hooves, they all ran out and surrounded the horses, barking wildly, and the horses could not go forward.

Iron Rose was like a wolf pack, and the dogs, with their mouths wide open and fangs bared, seemed to be more vicious than wolves. Xiuxia drew his sword, shook it and threatened the vicious dog, and shouted sharply: "Someone hasn't seen the dog coming!"

As soon as she shouted like this, she saw three people running out of a firewood house. The three men were all young men, and Iron Rose couldn't help but be even more surprised when she saw it.

It turned out that two of them were very familiar, two of the four horsemen he had met on the road in the morning, and Iron Rose immediately panicked, thinking that she had entered the thief's den again, but seeing that the three men were not malicious, they were just driving the dogs, and looking at Iron Rose with suspicious eyes.

One of the three men was tall, and he stopped Iron Rose's horse and asked, "Girl, don't go yet, where are you going with a sword?" ”

Seeing that although this person spoke kindly, he was still suspicious in his heart, so he said, "I want to go to Xuzhou to see a relative!"

The man asked, "Girl, what is the surname of your relatives, and do you live in Xuzhou City or outside the city?"

Before Iron Rose could reply, she saw two more people come out of the wood, one of whom was about forty years old, and he was bare-bones on such a cold day, and it was obvious that he had just finished practicing martial arts.

The man came up and clasped his fist at Iron Rose and said, "Don't be confused, girl, we are not villains. Here in the family village, my name is Double Hook Hand Su Xiong, these are my brothers, they are all darts from all walks of life. Because we saw a girl on the road, we thought you were suspicious, and now that you are passing by here, we want to ask you, and we have no other intentions, don't worry!"

The other said, "Ask her sword first!" and Iron Rose was at once anxious, and cried out, "Why don't you let me go over?" and "I won't let you see my sword!"

Iron Rose had only urged her horse to take a few steps, and when she heard this, she was stunned. She looked back, and saw that the people behind her did not seem to have any evil intentions, so she asked, "Do you know Tie Don't hate?"

At this time, Su Xiong, who was a pair of hooked hands, had already put on a cotton jacket, and he said: "Why don't we know each other? Ten years ago, I received the benefits of the Iron Hero of the Iron and Blood Banner Gate, and until now I still owe the Iron Hero dozens of taels of silver and have not repaid it; poor Iron Hero was killed by Chi Yanyu Culture and that Wang Ba Lamb in the autumn!"

Several people behind Su Xiong asked in unison: "Little girl, are you Miss Tie, don't you have to hide it from us, Second Master Yun passed here a few days ago, and he entrusted us to find his niece Tie Rose!"

When Iron Rose heard this, she couldn't help but burst into tears, so she nodded and said, "Yes, I am Iron Rose, and you know where my uncle is now?"

When Su Xiong and the others saw that Tie Rose thought that she was the daughter of Tie Bei's hatred, they were all overjoyed and said, "Girl, please come to the house for a rest! Don't worry, we will definitely be able to send the girl to see Second Master Yun." ”

Iron Rose was hungry and thirsty at this time, and she was at a loss for what to do, but now she saw that Su Xiong, the double hook hand, and others sincerely welcomed her to her home to rest, and she seemed to have met a savior, so she quickly collected the sword and dismounted.

Su Xiong asked for the horse to be fed and fed, and he led the Iron Rose into the wood. Xiuxia saw that there were six or seven rooms in the door, and Su Xiong had a mother and a wife.

Those people are all Suxiong's brothers, named: Li Dianjie, Qin Baowang, Feng Yu, and Guan Longjiang. These four people are all darts from Kaifeng Mansion, and now they have unloaded the dart car in Nanyang and come back. They had always come to see their brother when they passed by this househouse, but now they saw a woman with suspicious behavior on the road, so they came to mention it to their brother.

When the double hook hand heard this, he was very surprised, and hurriedly sent his brother Su Yong to ride a horse to find out if the woman was the daughter of Tie Bei's hatred. Before Su Yong could return after leaving, Iron Rose rode to the village.

Now that Su Xiong, the double-hooked hand, saw that Iron Rose confided her true feelings and said that she was in trouble, Su Xiong said: "Girl, you are fortunate to have met me, otherwise the red scorpion will not be able to catch up with you, and you will never want to go to Zhongmu." Because there are many companions of the Black Mountain God on this road, they are all recognizable to the horse you ride, and this White Dragon Yin Wind Sword is even more eye-catching. ”

He also said: "I have been in the dart business for many years, and last year the bodyguard went to Muling Pass, and met a young chivalrous man named Wei Chigong, and the two of us fought because of some trivial things, and I lost. I swore that if I couldn't get out of this breath, I would never be a bodyguard, so I went back home to concentrate on martial arts, and I didn't see anyone except my brothers.

"To be honest, I haven't seen Second Master Yun, but I heard that Iron Man was killed by Chi Yanyu Culture, and the girl has also disappeared, Second Master Yun has come to avenge his brother and wants to find the whereabouts of his niece. That day, I heard that Second Master Yun had arrived in Xuzhou, and I hurried to see him, but when I got there, he was gone.

Now that you're here, Iron Maiden, we can't tell you to go alone. Please rest with us for a day, and tomorrow a few of us will work hard and send you to Zhongmu to see Second Master Yun. If Second Master Yun is not there, we will have to send you back to Xincai County. As for the future of finding Chi Yanyu culture and avenging Iron Hero, we also have to do our best, because Iron Hero is our predecessor hero, and it has really been good for us!"

When Iron Rose saw that Su Xiong was such a heroic and generous person, and was enthusiastic about helping herself, she couldn't help but cry with gratitude. The mother of the double-hooked hand Suo Xiong was also a very kind person, she was over seventy years old, and she also lamented the tragic experience of Iron Rose. Knowing that Iron Rose had not had lunch until this time, he asked his daughter-in-law to light a fire and cook for Iron Rose.

Su Xiong kept all the alliance brothers, and said, "You don't have to be busy leaving. Let's not hate the dead Tie, we have to take care of this idle matter, and think of sending that girl to Zhongmu County to meet her uncle. I think Yun Zhanfeng must be living in Xiaoxinling Liu Fenggao now. ”

Although his allies all agreed, they all seemed to be a little embarrassed. That Li Dianjie said: "However, if you offend the red scorpion because of this, what can you do?"

Su Xiong, the double-hooked hand, sneered: "What are you afraid of that wicked woman doing? As long as I see the face of that wicked woman, I will let her know how powerful my double-hook is!"

At this time, Suo's wife had finished the meal, and Iron Rose ate in the old lady's house. But she was always worried, and always listened to the conversation of Su Xiong and the others in the next room, and always felt as if something bad was about to happen in front of her, as if that disaster came out, even Su Xiong and the others could not stop it.

After eating, the old lady kept chatting with Tie Rose, but Tie Rose always looked into the courtyard by a small piece of glass embedded in the window, and saw that the white horse she was riding had been led to the courtyard, and all the horses of the men were tied to a dead tree.

The sunlight in the courtyard appeared and disappeared, but it was indeed not early, Iron Rose took out the White Dragon Yin Wind Sword from her side, wiped it with her sleeve, and couldn't help but think of the danger she had suffered for this sword, and even more thought of the Canglong Tengyu Sword, she couldn't help but cry, tears flowed on the blade of the sword.

When she was young, she heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the fence, and Iron Rose was taken aback, and then listened to the knocking of firewood "Let's go", and Iron Rose was even more frightened, and her right hand held the hilt of the sword tightly, and she looked out of the glass on her stomach.

I saw that Su Xiong was holding a pair of gauntlets and double hooks, and came out to open the firewood. Iron Rose saw a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old, leading a horse, sweating from his head.

Iron Rose thought to herself: This must be Su Xiong's brother Su Yong. As soon as Su Yong entered the door, he asked his brother in a panic: "Didn't the daughter of Daqimen Tie Bei Hate walk over from here?"

Su Xiong glared at Qing and asked, "What's the matter?"

Su Yong said: "The red scorpion has chased down, and now it is still more than ten miles away from here, and it will be there in about a few hours!"

As soon as Su Xiong heard that the red scorpion was coming, he told his brother and brother to prepare to fight the red scorpion.

But the old lady said in the house: "Don't make trouble, the red scorpion is a famous female thief, the reincarnation of the female demon king, we can't mess with her!

Su Yong said in the courtyard: "Can people hide, can horses still hide?" This white horse was ridden by the Black Mountain God in the Nine Heavens, and many people on the road recognized this horse, so the red scorpion knew that the Iron Maiden was coming this way!"

Li Dianjie, Qin Baowang, Feng Yu, and Guan Longjiang all said in a panic: "It's better to ask the Iron Maiden to avoid it, otherwise the red scorpion will definitely be a disaster, and the girls' sleeve arrows are too powerful!"

Su Xiong shook his double hook and said: "I'm not afraid, the red scorpion is coming, you don't have to get started, you soft egg buns!

He didn't even close the firewood, and waited for the red scorpion in front of the door with his double hook. His wife was frightened in the house, but his old lady kept chanting Buddha.

As soon as Iron Rose was sideways, he walked out of the house with the White Dragon Yin Wind Sword, went to the courtyard to untie the white horse, and walked out.

Su Yong, Li Dianjie and the others all stopped her and asked, "Where are you going to go Iron Maiden?"

Iron Rose said, "I want to go, I can't trouble you all!"

Su Xiong rushed over again and said, "Iron Maiden, don't come out, I'm waiting for the red scorpion here!"

But Iron Rose got on her horse and said, "I am very grateful for your kindness to me, how can I bear to trouble your family again? The red scorpion is the most ferocious, although your martial arts are good, but you can't resist her sleeve arrows!"

At this time, Su Xiong, the double-hooked hand, also crossed the door to untie the horse, and he rode a black horse and carried a double hook, and went out of the village to catch up with Iron Rose, and shouted loudly: "Iron girl, aren't you afraid of disturbing my family? But I don't worry about letting you go alone, I will follow you to Zhongmu County." ”

Iron Rose immediately replied, "Uncle Su, please go back! Leave me alone, I can go to Zhongmu County alone!"

Su Xiong still refused to go back. At this time, I suddenly saw the dozen or so big dogs bite back to the village like crazy people.

Su Xiong was startled, his face changed color, and he said to Iron Rose: "It must be the Red Scorpion who has arrived in the village, let's take refuge in the woods to the west!"

To the west, there was a verdant forest, and I don't know if it was pine or cypress. Su Xiong urged the horse in front, and Iron Rose followed, and after walking less than half a mile, he entered the forest.

Although the snow outside the forest has melted from the sun, the snow in the forest is still more than a foot deep.

Snow still hangs on the branches and leaves that are not visible to the sun, like lush white flowers.

Iron Rose gasped for breath and asked, "Let's hide here, doesn't it matter if we live at home, won't those guys fight with the red scorpions?"

Su Xiong shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as you and I'm not there, they can't fight, and the red scorpion can't help my family." Because although the red scorpion is vicious, she is not unreasonable, and she is much better than her man. ”

Iron Rose remembered the kindness of the red scorpion to her, and now she grabbed the sword and fled, although it was forced by the situation, but it was too ruthless. While he was thinking about it, he heard the dog barking again in the distance outside the woods, and Su Xiong quickly jumped off his horse and walked out of the forest to see.

Suddenly, he ran in again, and said to Iron Rose, "The red scorpions, they are out of the village, there are five or six people in all, all on horseback, girl, be careful!"

As he was talking, he heard the sound of hooves approaching and the sound of dogs barking, Iron Rose was nervous, drew out the white dragon sword, and looked out through a line of trees. Then they saw that the red scorpions were leading the way, all with knives in their hands, and they searched for the forest because they had found the hoofs in the ice and snow on the ground.

Iron Rose was shocked, and said to Su Xiong in a panic: "How can this be good?" Su Xiong sneered slightly and said, "Since we can't hide, then we have to fight with her!"

Iron Rose said, "We are only two people, how can we fight against them?

Su Xiong said: "Then you should flee first and flee westward, there is a big stone ditch thirty miles, and Li Yunqing, who lives there, is my good friend." You can go and vote for him, and I'll go when I'm young!"

As he spoke, he heard the sound of horses' hooves and dogs barking, and the red scorpion was about to enter the woods. Su Xiong held a double hook in his hand and urged the horse to break out of the forest.

I saw that the red scorpion was carrying a total of six people behind him, all of them were minions of Aoziyu

。 Although the red scorpion died of her husband, she did not wear filial piety, with a red cotton jacket on her upper body and green pants on her lower body. As soon as she arrived, she dismounted, pointed her sword at Su Xiong, and said, "Are you the Twin Hook Su Xiong? You hid the Iron Rose there? Let her come out boldly and tell her that I will not kill her." All I need is that white dragon sword!"

Su Xiong, the double-hooked hand, sneered and said, "How can you ask for the sword of the Tie family of the Great Banner Gate?" The Iron Rose is not hidden in the forest, I don't believe you came in to search!"

The red scorpion said, "Okay, search, search! If you search her out, I won't be merciful, and even she will take you to death!"

As she spoke, she glared at the two eyes that were glowing fiercely, and walked towards the forest with her sword. Su Xiong was unexpectedly flicked the hand guard hook on the horse, hooking the red scorpion's hair. The red scorpion quickly tilted its head, and the horizontal sword held the hook, but the hair still did not unhook. The six minions slashed at Su Xiong together, and Su Xiong used a hook to go to the enemy, and one hook pressed down to hook the neck of the red scorpion.

The red scorpion struggled to get free, but the bun was also scattered, and a large strand of hair was hooked by Su Xiong.

The red scorpion was so angry that he jumped up with his sword and went to cut down Su Xiong on the horse. Su Xiong knocked the hook of his right hand, and when he heard the sound of "dang", the red scorpion's hand hurt. Su Xiong unfolded the hook method again, and in three or five rounds, he hooked both minions off his horse, and then went to the red scorpion with both hooks.

The red scorpion greeted him with a sword, and when he joined it in three or four, the red scorpion felt that Su Xiong's strength was too great, and his own sword could not reach him on the horse. The red scorpion took a few steps back and pulled out the sleeve arrow from his bosom.

Su Xiong knew that her secret weapon was coming, so he laughed and scolded wildly: "Dog thief woman!" He turned his horse and entered the forest, and shouted loudly in the forest: "Red scorpion, you dog thief woman dare to enter the forest, but watch out for Lao Tzu's darts!"

As soon as he said this, the red scorpion and a few minions really didn't dare to come in, but they all scolded the forest. The dozen or so dogs also barked around their horses, and the sound outside the forest was very noisy, but the forest was very quiet, and there was no sound.

Su Xiong looked around in the forest, but there was no trace of Xiuxia's people, and he could tell from the hoofs on the snow that Xiuxia had fled out of the woods to the west.

He said, "Okay, tell her to run away, and I'll support her here for a while." So the red scorpion and the others scolded outside the forest, and he also scolded in the forest.

After a short time of scolding, the red scorpion was so angry that he couldn't bear it anymore, so he mounted his horse and broke into the forest with four minions. Su Xiong drove his horse back and forth in the trees, and only scolded them, and did not ask them to chase them, nor to meet them to fight.

The red scorpion was so angry that his face turned pale, his whole body trembled, and he even shot four or five sleeve arrows, all of which were nailed to the ground. At this time, Su Xiong laughed and was very happy.

Su Xiong saw that the few hidden arrows in the red scorpion's hand had been killed, and saw that the red scorpion was so angry that he was about to faint, and the minions behind him couldn't even use a knife.

Su Xiong wanted to take the opportunity to restrain this rampant female thief to death.

So he got out of the woods, turned back and shouted to the woods, "Dog thief woman." Get out of here! Try Lao Tzu's double hook!"

The red scorpion immediately urged the horse to chase out of the forest, and slashed at Su Xiong with his sword. Su Xiong greeted him with a double hook, and the two of them fought on their horses at first, and then jumped off their horses together to fight.

The weapon used by the double-hooked hand Su Xiong is very powerful, the front end is a hook, the back end is like a sword tip, there is a crescent-shaped gauntlet, and the hook body is sharp, like a sword.

Su Xiong is not only proficient in hooking, but also strong and strong, so he is a first-class person in Henan Dart Shop.

The red scorpion was slender and slender, its two feet were less than a quarter of Su Xiong's feet, and the sword in his hand was only more than two feet long. She is like a deer fighting with a tiger, and like a beautiful bird fighting with a goshawk, but she refuses to show weakness at all.

I saw her sword "Bang!Bang!" like lightning, like a silver snake, flying up and down, covering the front and back, and always going to Su Xiong with vicious numbers.

What is particularly strange is that when the steel hook and the sword are knocked together, only the deafening sound of "choking" is heard, Su Xiong has exhausted his life's strength, but the sword of the red scorpion cannot be broken.

He thought to himself: Ahh

They recruited more than a dozen strong men in the village, invited a few officers and soldiers, and came together with knives to catch the red scorpion.

The Red Scorpion's men urged the horses to come over and kill Su Xiong, and said to each other in a panic, "Float!" But the red scorpion still loves to fight and refuses to leave. Su Xiong parried these people with a double hook for a while, and a group of helpers over there had already arrived.

The minions were all running in all directions, but the red scorpion was even more ferocious, and she had snatched her horse and flew up, but she still refused to go. Surrounded by the crowd, she wielded her sword, killing and slashing indiscriminately, and she was simply a fierce female demon.

Her hair bun had been hooked and scattered, and in the battle for half a day, her hair had been shaken apart, and the unkempt black silk more than three feet long was draped behind her back and sprinkled on her front body.

Her eyes, forever shining with fierce light, her frightening and beloved cheeks, dripping with sweat, her left arm was probably hooked by Su Xiong, bleeding from her bright clothes, and she fought bravely despite the pain.

Su Yong, Li Dianjie and others were in a mess, shouting and scolding together, saying, "Hold the red scorpion, you want to live!"

The red scorpion probably suffered another wound on her body, and at this time she had no helper, so she swiped her sword in one hand to resist everyone, and took out a quiver and a leather bag of hidden arrows from her arms with the other. As soon as she took out the hidden weapon, Su Yong, Li Dianjie and the others said together: "Be careful!

The red scorpion took advantage of the fact that everyone was on guard against hidden weapons and had no time to advance, so she inserted her sword into the human sheath, pressed the arrow on her left and pressed the spring on her right hand, and shot at everyone like a flying locust.

Immediately, Li Dianjie fell off his horse, an official was also hit by an arrow, both strong men were shot down, and Su Xiong had to hide aside. The red scorpion took advantage of this time to break out of the encirclement, and returned to shoot arrows as he went.

Su Xiong led a few more men to chase down for half a mile, and then he saw the red scorpion with his hair fluttering, and fled north on horseback like flying. They knew they couldn't catch up, so they had to come back.

Here Qin Baowang and the officials and Zhuangding have arrested the three thieves, all of whom were injured, tied up, and brought back to Sujiazhuang. There was no need to torture them, and the three thieves said it all.

They refused to think that they were Red Scorpion's subordinates, and they all said: "We are all residents of Maple Leaf Village, Aoziyu, Fangcheng Mountain, because our family lives there, we have to listen to Grandma Jiu's words. Now Yu Jiuye was injured and died, and a little girl adopted by the red scorpion also abducted the sword and ran away, so the red scorpion was very angry and asked us to follow her to chase the little girl to get the sword back. and said that he would go to Zhongmu County to avenge her man.

She forced us, and we didn't dare not listen to her, otherwise as long as she stared, we would die. At that moment, the three arrested thieves were escorted to the county seat by the officials.

The few people here who were hit by the Pocket Arrow were not seriously injured, but they were all afraid that the red scorpion would come to take revenge. Su Xiong was also worried, so he ordered people to tighten their guards, and said, "Let the dogs out at night." "There is a stack of firewood and grass in the courtyard, and Su Xiong also asked someone to move it, for fear that the red scorpion will come here at night to set fire.

He also told his brother Su Yong, his brother Li Dianjie, Qin Baowang, Feng Yu, Guan Longjiang and all the strong men to take turns to defend, and they were not allowed to sleep all night. He saw that everything had been arranged, so he took the horse again, carried the double hook, and said to his brother and the others: "I still have to go, I asked the Iron Maiden to go to Dashigou to find Li Yunqing." But that part of the road is extremely difficult to walk, and she may not be able to find it, and I am very worried, I will chase it and see, and we will help people to the end. So saying, he went out and rode westward along the winding path.

Walk to the back of the pine forest. Further west, after crossing two villages, I saw a mountain range in front of me, which was Dashigou. The mountain was dark, but behind the mountain there was a glow, and flocks of crows were "scratching" and flying from the side of the mountain to the pine forest. Su Xiong urged the horse to go, and at the same time looked around with his eyes open in surprise, lest the red scorpion had not run far, and now he had made a detour to catch up with him.

In fact, although the red scorpion is fierce and can shoot hidden arrows, she is not afraid of her, she is only afraid that she secretly follows her and follows her to find Chen Xiuxia, and then she secretly kills Iron Rose and robs the White Dragon Sword, wouldn't that be bad!

In fact, he has tried his best to save people, but if he can't save people, he can't do it, but it will be difficult to see Chen Zhongyan's face in the future, especially sorry for the late Daqimen Tie Don't hate, he walked while guarding, and entered the big stone ditch when he was young.

Dashigou is a very wide road in the mountains, there are few people, as soon as Su Xiong walked in, he went straight to his friend Li Yunqing's house. Before he arrived, he saw a horse coming to him, and Su Xiong was taken aback and quickly retracted the reins.

It was only when the horse on the other side approached that he saw the sunset in the mountains and saw that it was the Iron Rose. He immediately shouted, "Iron Girl, have you found Li Yunqing's house?"

Iron Rose didn't bother to answer, she only asked in a panic, "Is the red scorpion gone?"

Su Xiong said: "We beat him away. I caught her three minions, and they were all detained in the Yamen, don't be afraid!"

Tie Rose then said: "It was so easy for me to find the Li family, but I heard from the people in his family that Li Yunqing went to Kaifeng Mansion and left the day before yesterday." ”

Su Xiong couldn't help but be stunned. Xiuxia said again: "I didn't go in either......" As soon as she said this, she suddenly screamed again and said, "The red scorpion is here again!" Su Xiong hurriedly turned back to look back.

I saw a horse flying towards the two of them, although the appearance of the person on the horse could not be seen clearly, but looking at the appearance of the hair, before the people and horses arrived, a sleeve arrow flew first, and it was indeed a red scorpion.

So Su Xiong hurriedly said to Iron Rose, "You go with me!" When Su Xiong urged the horse to lead the way, Iron Rose whipped the horse to follow, and the two horses flew west like frightened birds.

The iron hooves slammed on the stone path, and the "deserved" sound played a sharp and crisp sound. The horse behind him also came like an arrow, and shouted in a loud and sharp voice, "Rose, Rose......" Tie Rose was so grieved and frightened that she didn't even dare to turn her head back, and urged the horse to hurry away.

When they were young, their two horses walked through the big stone ditch and out of the mountain pass. Su Xiong saw that the horse she was riding was very fast, so he let her go and urged her, "You are in front, go quickly, keep walking!

At that moment, Su Xiong took off the double hook, divided his hands, and after the horse was broken, the Iron Rose had already galloped forward.

The red scorpion also crossed the mountain road and came closer. Su Xiong picked up the hook to meet the general, and shouted, "Thief girls, don't you want to die!" But the red scorpion turned his horse to dodge, and he waved his hand and said, "Don't you care! I'm chasing Iron Rose, I want that sword!"

Su Xiong also shouted: "With the master here, you don't want to chase it! Don't want a sword!"

He pounced on him with his hook, and the red scorpion met him with his sword. This woman and a man, with a sword and two hooks, two horses went back and forth, and fought for more than ten times. Su Xiong saw that Xiu was about to go far, so he refused to make any more effort.

He danced his double hook and forced the red scorpion to take a few steps back, and he laughed wildly, cursed twice, and ran northwest again.

The red scorpion was so angry that she almost fell off her horse, and she gasped for breath and urged the horse to chase after her.

After chasing down for another half a mile, it was getting dark, and Iron Rose's men and horses were gone, but Su Xiong was not far from the front, and he was already caught up by her. The red scorpion took out the sleeve arrow again, pressed the spring, and the "sloppy" arrow was shot in Su Xiong's right arm.

Su Xiong stretched out his hand and pulled out the arrow from the flesh, fell down, looked back and scolded: "Thief Lang, dog slut, can you shoot the master with this arrow?"

The red scorpion was so angry that he was about to hit the sleeve arrow again, and Su Xiong urged the horse to scold while galloping forward.

There was another forest in front of the black press, and Su Xiong urged the horse to flee to the forest, and it turned out that Xiuxia was also there.

Iron Rose said in a panic, "Uncle Su, if the red scorpion chases into the forest, why don't I go and see her." I'll give him the White Dragon Sword and try to recover it later. ”

Su Xiong was angry and said, "Why, as long as she comes into the forest, I will call her dead!" When he said this, there was a sound of horses' hooves outside the forest, and it turned out that the red scorpion had arrived.

The Iron Rose in the forest was so frightened that she didn't dare to move, but Su Xiong laughed and said, "Thieves, as long as you dare to enter the forest, you will be looking for death!"

As he spoke, he listened to the sound of hooves, and the sound of "gotta gotta" became quieter and quieter, as if the horse had gone somewhere else.

Su Xiong looked back and said, "How is it? I forgive the red scorpion and don't dare to enter the forest." ”

He dismounted and walked out of the woods, and looked around, and he quickly shouted, "Iron Maiden, Iron Maiden!" Iron Rose rode out of the forest, and Su Xiong said, "It's easy, it's so late, we can't hide in the forest all night, and it's not safe to go back to my house; ”

Then he lowered his voice and said, "To the west, in the Nanhai faction, there is a Haichao Nunnery ten miles away, and it is a nun temple. The nun there is named Nanhai Shenni, who is over 60 years old, just like an old monk. She has strength and martial arts, and her temple is lonely in the recess, and there is no man in the temple, but there has been no accident for more than 30 years, and even robbers dare not go there. You can see how great the Nanhai Shenni is.

Although I have never been to the temple to burn incense, I think she knows a little bit about my fame. I'll send you there to stay temporarily, and the red scorpion can't be found. You'll only hide there for three or five days, and then I'll take care of that little bit of the house, and maybe I'll be able to keep the red scorpion on a leash." I'll send you to Zhongmu County to find your uncle. ”

Iron Rose thought for a moment and said, "Can someone take me in that temple?"

Su Xiong said: "You must be able to take it in, you are a girl in distress, and the South China Sea Shenni can't help but show mercy." ”

At that moment, Iron Rose thought about it, and now she had nowhere to run, so she had to be placed by Su Xiong, so she nodded and agreed. Su Xiong hooked his horse and walked west through the woods with Iron Brier.

Since there were no red scorpions chasing after them, they didn't have to rush their horses to hurry, so they walked slowly. It was already dark, but the snow on the ground still made the path recognizable.

Su Xiong was in front, Iron Rose was behind, and the two horses stepped on the remnant snow, heading west in the chaos of the night.

The north wind was like a knife, cutting their faces. Su Xiong's arrow wound on his shoulder was very painful at this time, and he probably lost a lot of blood, but he couldn't help but keep silent, and thought to himself: What is this? Ask a thief girl to shoot a sleeve arrow like an embroidery needle, can my double hooked hand hurt so much? In that case, I am too unmanable.

Iron Rose bowed her head on her horse and wept secretly. She thought, "How much have I suffered for the sake of avenging my father and for this sword?" Red Scorpion, although she is fierce, she is really good to me; naturally I cannot be in the company of a robber like her, and the sword cannot be given to her; I should flee." But I was a little sorry for her when I ran away this time! The two had different thoughts, but the horse went in the same direction.

After walking for about ten miles, the sky became darker and darker, and I entered a mountain road. The mountain path was very narrow, and the strange rocks on both sides were hideous, but Iron Rose looked at it but was very afraid, and Su Xiong didn't seem to be familiar with the path here.

I walked for a long time, and after looking for a long time, I came to a temple. The temple is not big, and there seem to be a few pine trees outside the door that are not very high, so Su Xiong said, "It's here, get off the horse." It doesn't matter if the horse is tethered here, no one steals it. Here you invite the thief to come, and he will not dare to come. ”

Iron Rose was very surprised, I don't know what kind of old nun is in this temple, and when he got off the horse, Su Xiong tied both horses to a tree, and he went up and knocked on the door. He was in a hurry, and the knocker was very loud in the quiet barren mountains of the night. When I was young, I saw a line of light coming out of the crack in the temple door, and a woman's voice asked, "Who is outside?"

Su Xiong replied respectfully through the door: "I am Su Xiong from Sujiazhuang in the east. Now I have brought a suffering girl, and I want to come to see Mrs. Nanhai and ask for mercy and mercy!"

There were no words in it, and the light suddenly passed away. Su Xiong turned around and sat on the stone steps in front of the temple gate, and he whispered to Xiuxia: "When you turn around and see the Nanhai Shenni, don't speak, you can cry, and she will definitely accept you." After staying for a long time, Su Xiong heard the sound of footsteps in the door again, and he stood up.

As soon as the light flashed inside, the door opened, and a lantern came out, two female apprentices who were waiting to practice.

Iron Rose looked carefully here, and saw that there was indeed a tall old nun with a wrinkled face among them.

Su Xiong, the double-hooked hand, looked at the two female apprentices through the light, and he guessed that this must be the Nanhai Shenni, who was with her apprentice, so he took a deep look and said, "Master, we came here in the middle of the night, and there was a lot of alarm! But there is really an emergency, I am Su Xiong from Sujiazhuang in the east, and I used to make a living as a bodyguard, and my wife often comes here to burn incense for the Bodhisattva......

The Nanhai Shenni seemed to know his origin, so he waved his hand to prevent him, pointed to the Iron Rose outside the door, and asked, "Who is she?"

Su Xiong called Iron Rose over, and Iron Rose cried and saluted to the South Sea Shenni.

The South Sea Shenni also returned the question, and Su Xiong told the story of Iron Rose's family history, what happened to her, and the scene of being persecuted by the red scorpion now.

At last he said, "I can't settle this little girl, and when I think about it, I suddenly remember to send her here." I see that this place is safe, firstly, the place is secluded, and secondly, the prestige of the master is enough to suppress the thieves and girls. Besides, if you only ask her to stay here for four or five days, I will ...... "At this point, the god of the South China Sea led the Iron Rose in, and closed the temple door.

Although Su Xiong hadn't finished speaking, he was already relieved. He sat on the stone steps outside the door and rested for a while, gasping for breath, and the injury didn't hurt much, he thought: I didn't expect the South China Sea Shenni to be so easy to see, and the Iron Maiden should get out of this difficulty. It is not very good for her horse to be tied outside the door, and the thief cannot steal it, but what if the red scorpion comes? So he untied all his horses, and rode one and led the other, and went out of the mountain. In the dark of night, he rushed back to Sujiazhuang. At this time, it is bitterly cold after the snow, the north wind is blowing tighter and tighter, and it is even colder in the mountains.

Iron Rose was let into the Haichao Nunnery, and the old nun's apprentice, a nun in her thirties, took her to live in an empty room. There was no light in the empty room, and Iron Rose touched it, and she felt a broken stove and a clay kang, as if this had been a kitchen earlier, and there was a mat and a cotton mat on the kang, and Iron Rose still carried the white dragon sword in her arm, so she first put the sword on the kang and closed the door of the house.

Then she took off her shoes, got on the kang, and lay down on the mat, covered with the cotton pad. Although the cold made her shiver, the day of panic and danger had only been over, and she could not help but congratulate herself on her luck and thank Su Xiong at the same time. I thought: thanks to this man!
