On a mine where Shaanxi and Jin meet, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old gray-clothed boy is staring at the north, muttering to himself: "Looking at the north from afar, a horse and a flat river, magnificent and delicate." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info pity that the Tartars are in trouble, and they invade the south at all times, and there are bursts of wolf smoke burning on the land of this heron. In recent years, the imperial court has been weakened, and the people are full of grievances, and they have to rely on the righteous people to defend the township against the Tartars. Although the gang leader is young but eloquent, he can be called a masterpiece of the moment, and I hope that this time I can have the honor to meet ......"

The gray-clothed young man slowly walked down the mine, turned the hill, and was greeted by a golden yellow. At this time, it is the autumn harvest season, and the villagers are in full swing for the corn stalks one by one, and the cooking smoke is curling and unpredictable, with the sound of chickens, dogs, horses, and cows, as if they have converged into a vibrant morning light song.

The young man greeted everyone enthusiastically, and walked through the path, faintly revealing a yellow mud wall, which was covered by rice stalks. He pushed open the door of his fence and walked briskly inside.

There was a sound of "clanging" knocking on the iron, and the young man said secretly: "My father has been sullen since he was dismissed from the Ordnance Supervisor and returned to seclusion, and it was not until he joined the Green Gang last year that he regained his strength. He built soldiers and horses for the country all his life, even if he returned to his hometown, he still did not forget the shame of the Tartars, led the villagers to mine mines, improve their lives, and also taught everyone to build weapons and exercise their physique. It's just that my father is getting older after all, so I have to help him share some of it......"

"Nantian, are you back?"

"Father, it's me!" the young man walked into the hut and saw his father, Yan Jiaji, sweating and beating iron tools inside. Under the red firelight, my father was so focused and tall.

Yan Nantian wiped the sweat on his father's face with a towel, and asked suspiciously: "Father, the weapons that the hall master asked us to prepare have been prepared, what are you still building?"

Yan Jiaji said while striking iron: "The hall master asked us to prepare fifty long knives, but I want to build twenty more. The weapons of the Tartars are also extraordinary, and I must not let my brothers suffer in the quality and quantity of their weapons. The sunlight shone obliquely from the outside, shining directly on his father's two thick eyebrows, on his angular cheekbones, and on his miserable beard.

Yan Nantian's eyes were a little sour, "Father is father after all, you must know how the Qing Gang of Nuoda will only let my father build weapons alone? The reason why my father made 20 more knives was because the money given by the hall master was just enough to make 70 knives. He doesn't want any hard-earned money, he just hopes to do more for the helper, and do more to overthrow the Tartars, this power is as light as a cow's hair, but in my heart it is heavier than Mount Tai!" Yan Nan Tianqiang smiled and said: "So that's the case, but I'm going to leave later, I don't know if I'm in a hurry?"

Yan Jiaji said: "Fifty knives are in Wang Er's house next door, and nineteen have been placed in the side hall, and my knife will be fine immediately." This time, let your second uncle Wang accompany you, so as not to delay time on the road. ”

Yan Nantian thought for a moment and smiled, "I don't know if I can meet the helper this time, after all, this is the last batch of weapons we sent." Daddy, have you ever met the helper?"

Yan Jiaji said with a smile: "Of course I have seen it, but I only glanced at it from a distance. People are noble people who do great things, and they are different from us. Although your father and I are hard to build iron tools, they are worlds different from others, do you know what it is?"

Yan Nantian shook his head, "Daddy will never say that his fate is determined by heaven, right?" You know, the helper is only seventeen years old this year, although it has adventures, but its current achievements are all earned by its own efforts. ”

Yan Jiaji said: "Of course! What I want to say is that we only contribute strength, and people must not only contribute their strength, but also have wisdom and courage. What do you think those seventy knives are used for? That's for desperate efforts! How to make the enemy suffer the most casualties and the least self casualties is what the gang leader should consider. Your father and I can only do our best to do things for the helper, whether he knows it or not, we can't make this money, do you remember?"

Yan Nantian's eyes flashed, and he said solemnly: "A man should sacrifice and dedicate himself to the country and the country, and his father's teachings will never be forgotten!"

The sun is shining, the breeze is slow, Ren Tianxing and Ah Jiu are playing a chess game in the pavilion, time passes as if unconsciously, the two sides attack and defend, defend and attack.

They were very attentive when they played chess, and the white and black were both sinking and rising, and the two were also talking, and the voices were not loud.

Ren Tianxing sighed, "My sister's chess skills have gradually improved. ”

Ah Jiu was silent for a while, and then said: "Playing chess is life, if you use a killing move, I will already be defeated." ”

Ren Tianxing smiled bitterly and said: "Sister, how old are you this year, why are you so murderous? I have already promised you that Shunzhi will die, if you really can't let go, then you will blame me." ”

Ah Jiu sighed slightly and put down the sunspot in his hand, "Tianxing, you know that I will never blame you, I will only love you." It's just that...... My arm is gone after all, not because of obsession, but because it can't be broken. ”

Ren Tianxing said with a smile: "There is no confusion, why bother to break it? Just like this chess game, why should you care about winning or losing?"

Ah Jiu also smiled, and her bright eyes blinked, "Since you don't care about winning or losing the chess game, why bother playing chess?" Seeing that Ren Tianxing was silent, she changed the topic and said, "What do you think of Hu Fei's defeat in the hands of Yuan Ziyi?"

Ren Tianxing's eyes flashed, "It's no wonder that he was only twelve years old when he was taken as an apprentice." Only passed on his Five Elements Fist, Quanxin Heart Method and Jin Yan Gong. I've asked people to investigate the owner of the 'Sword Double Kill Seventy-Seven Forty-Nine Style'. Hehe, although I can't deal with Yuan Ziyi, that person still has to be seen. ”

"Qiyu Gang Master, my subordinates ask to see you in the wind!"

Ah Jiu smiled and said, "Speaking of Cao Cao Cao, it seems that he has news." ”

Ren Tianxing waved his hand into the distance, "Brother Feng, come here." Seeing the appearance of the wind and dust in the wind, he poured a cup of tea and handed it to the other party, "Take a sip of tea first, and then talk about it later." ”

In the center of the wind world, he said, "Thank you." The tea was already warm, he drank it dry, then took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Ren Tianxing.

Ren Tianxing opened it and browsed it, and then turned it to Ah Jiu, "Brother Feng, what do you think?"

Fengji thought for a while and said: "This news was originally transmitted by the master of the Nian Hall, after all, the Sichuan Shu Qing Gang is the closest to Emei. After I received the news, I sent the disciples of the 'Blood Hall' to investigate, and finally determined that the owner of the 'Sword Double Kill Seven Seven Forty-Nine Style' was called Dugu Yihe. ”

Ah Jiu put down the letter and frowned slightly, "The identity of this Dugu Yihe is so hidden that it can't even be found out in the Blood Hall, it seems to have appeared out of thin air." ”

Fengji said: "It is impossible for anyone to have no past, and it is impossible for a lonely crane to be alone." His subordinates guessed that he was not from the Central Plains, and he had only arrived in the Central Plains for more than ten years. ”

Ren Tianxing nodded, "What Brother Feng said makes sense, this possibility is indeed very big." The Emei faction has always only accepted female disciples, and the extermination master Taimen has strict rules, and he is jealous and hateful, so he can live on it for more than ten years, can you investigate the reason?"

The wind sneered twice, "What else can there be? According to the Blood Hall disciples, they had seen her enter and leave Dugu Yihe's thatched hut twice. Although it was all daytime, it was a long time, and the ghost believed that they had nothing to do with each other. ”

Ren Tianxing smiled, "Whether they have that kind of relationship or not, it's enough for now." When the matter of Wutai Mountain is over, I will go to meet this lonely crane for a while. Brother Feng, have you arranged all the plans?"

Fengji said solemnly: "Although the helper is relieved, although the situation is chaotic, everything is under control. On the day of the beggars' meeting, Shunzhi Lao'er must go to Western Bliss. ”

Ren Tianxing patted him on the shoulder, "Good job!"

Fengji shook his head and said: "The subordinates are just following orders, and this time they are also using yang schemes, and the intelligence of each faction is accurate." In the end, it depends on the desperate resistance of the helper and the brothers. ”

Ah Jiu said sincerely: "Why should Brother Feng be modest, he can grasp the movements of all aspects, and then use the contradictions of various factions to let them stop the enemy for us, everything takes a lot of effort. Although Tianxing's final blow is dangerous, if it is not for your efforts, where will he be rewarded with smooth sailing?"

Fengji sighed, "The hall master has won the award, and the great cause of the Green Gang is not only the leader's, but also the subordinates." Now that the Tartars are rampant, foreign invasions, and subordinates are looking forward to one day recovering the rivers and mountains and recreating the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty. In this process, don't say waste some brainpower, it will kill me, and my subordinates will never shirk!"

Ren Tianxing's eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand and shook it tightly with Fengji, "Good brother, I Ren Tianxing promise you that that day will come! ”

Fengji nodded heavily, and said movingly: "I believe that as long as the helper says it, the subordinates will definitely believe it!"

At this time, the guards outside the courtyard approached and saluted, "Qi Qi Gang Master, the son of Yan Jiaji of Juyi Hall came to see the Gang Master, saying that there is something important to report." ”

Ren Tianxing gently rubbed the back of his hand, "Yan Jiaji...... Who is Yan Jiaji?"

Fengji thought for a while and said with a smile: "This Yan Jiaji was originally the last official in the Great Song Dynasty Yantie Envoy Case, because his boss was jealous of his talent and made things difficult in every way, he resigned in anger and joined the Green Gang a year ago. However, this person hated his career and did not want to be a steward, but only wanted to be a blacksmith. ”

Ren Tianxing smiled, "Interesting, follow me to meet him." "Although it is strange to be in the wind and Ah Jiu, they will not ask each other. The guard didn't expect the helper to go to see a blacksmith's son in person, so he hurriedly bowed down to lead the way.

Yan Nantian was wandering in the garden, he was a little apprehensive in his heart, he didn't know if the helper would see him, after all, he was still a small person. At this time, when he saw a group of people coming from a distance, his eyes lit up, and he was very sure that the young man in the light blue robe was Ren Tianxing, because in his opinion, only the leader of the Green Gang would have such a bearing and appearance.

Yan Nantian didn't expect Ren Tianxing to come to see him in person, suppressed the excitement in his heart, walked a few steps, knelt on one knee and hugged his fists to salute, "The son of Yan Jiaji, a disciple of the Qing Gang, has seen the gang leader!"

Ren Tianxing carefully looked at the young man in front of him, and saw that he was burly, with a resolute face, and under the two thick eyebrows, there were a pair of eyes like torches. Although he is not very handsome, it is difficult for anyone to forget him as long as they see him, because his temperament is so heroic and free, and that heroic atmosphere cannot be concealed by shabby clothing. Seeing him was like seeing his brother-in-law Qiao Feng, and he couldn't help but praise: "What a heroic man, get up quickly." As he spoke, he lifted him up.

"Thank you for the compliment!" Yan Nan Tianyi stood up, his burly figure was even taller, and he was already close to the bridge of Ren Tianxing's nose.

Ren Tianxing smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "What's your name, how old are you this year?"

Yan Nantian said: "Qiyu Gang Master, called Yan Nantian, is fifteen years old this year. ”

Ren Tianxing asked, "Yan Nantian?"

Yan Nantian said: "The swallow of Feiyan, the south of Nanshan, and the sky of the world." ”

Ren Tianxing thought about it, and Lang smiled: "Sure enough, it's a good name! Yanxiang Nantian, overlooking half of the country." I'm not much older than you, so don't be restrained, just call me Big Brother Ren. ”

"This ...... The subordinates did not dare. ”

Ren Tianxing pinched his shoulder and said slowly: "I have seen the long knife made by your father, and it is indeed the best among the blacksmiths of the Green Gang. What's even more valuable is that whenever he is responsible for building weapons, he will always have a little more. I have calculated that the extra equipment is his reward. ”
