After Jing Chuan and Chen Mai broke up outside the Suzhou Acropolis, they went straight to Feiyun Town. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

He walked on that official road, and strangely, he didn't see the official checkpoints along the way.

After coming to Feiyun Town, Jing Chuan felt that something was wrong.

Feiyun Town seems to have just been ransacked, and the streets are messy and deserted, with many houses broken. Except for a few old and sick people in the town, everyone else was gone. Jing Chuan walked on the street and found traces of fighting in many places, as well as bloodstains.

"Could it be a bandit?" Jing Chuan pondered, and saw an old man on the side of the road trembling to pick up the things scattered on the ground, so he walked over and asked, "Old man, what happened here?"

The old man was quite kind, glanced at Jing Chuan, sighed and said, "This morning, Ma Dai, the commander of Jiayuguan, brought a group of men to the town and ordered all the strong men to be arrested in Jiayuguan for interrogation, saying that there were assassins hidden in the town. Feiyun Town is a small town, and under the nose of Jiayuguan, how can there be any assassins hidden. Although the people who come here have done everything before, they are tired of the grievances of the rivers and lakes, and they just want to live a peaceful life here. That Ma Dai indiscriminately ordered his subordinates to arrest people, and a few of them did not comply, and they were all killed by Ma Dai. Now that everyone has been escorted to Jiayuguan, it is estimated that there is more luck than luck!"

After hearing this, Jing Chuan secretly thought: "Ma Dai conspired to rebel with Han Yannian, Wei Guozhong and others in Suzhou last night, and later encountered an assassin, it was obviously an assassin from outside the Guan, why do you want to arrest all the people in Feiyun Town now?"

Jing Chuan really couldn't figure it out.

Jing Chuan remembered his third brother Bai Zong, so he said goodbye to the old man and walked towards Bai Zong's house.

The door of Bai Zong's house was open, and when he walked in, there was a mess inside, and Bai Zong was not inside.

Jing Chuan stood in the house for a while, then turned around and went out, got on his horse, got out of town, and hurried towards Jiayuguan.

Jiayuguan was built in the fifth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty and is the throat fortress of the Hexi Corridor. Its building is magnificent, by the mountains and rivers, there is a city in the city, there is a moat outside the city, it is extremely difficult to break through, it is known as "the first Xiongguan in the world".

When Jingchuan came to the city of Jiayuguan, Le Ma stopped, looked up at the towering and majestic city wall, and couldn't help but sigh: What a majestic pass!

When he came to the city gate, Jing Chuan was stopped by the city gate guards.

"Who?"

Jing Chuan said, "Come and find the commander of Ma Daima." ”

"Is there an official?"

"Nope. ”

"Hurry back, there is an order for the garrison, there is no passage officer, those who dare to break through the pass will be killed!"

Jing Chuan dismounted and said to the defenders: "You go and inform Ma Dai, I am the eldest brother of the Sand Gang Ding Man." ”

The defenders said, "Wait here!" and a soldier immediately went in.

After a long time, the soldiers came out and said to Jing Chuan: "Those who enter the customs must collect their weapons." ”

Jing Chuan didn't say anything, took off the knife on his body, and gave it to the soldiers. The soldiers led the way in front, and Jingchuan entered the pass.

Jiayuguan is very huge, composed of three lines of defense of the inner city, the outer city and the moat, each layer of the defense line is guarded by heavy soldiers, it is easy to enter the city and difficult to get out of the city. Jing Chuan paid attention to the surrounding defenses as he walked, and although he knew that it was extremely difficult to get out of the city this time, he was also calm and fearless.

It took a long time to walk from the outer city to the inner city, and after the soldier brought Jing Chuan to the inner city gate, he said a few words to the defenders at the city gate, handed Jing Chuan's sword to the defenders, and left. Jing Chuan was led in by two other soldiers.

Walking into the inner city, you are confronted by a towering wall, and the soldier stops and looks up.

Jing Chuan also looked up, only to see a row of soldiers standing under the platform on the top of the city wall, and there was a person in the middle, because of the dazzling sunlight, Jing Chuan couldn't see the appearance of that person, that person was looking down at Jing Chuan.

The soldier who led the way reported to the man, "Commander, someone has brought." ”

Jing Chuan secretly thought: Could it be that this person is Ma Dai?

The man on the wall spoke: "Go down!"

Jing Chuan listened to that voice, a little familiar, it was Ma Dai's voice that he heard in the Suzhou Wei Commander's Mansion.

Ma Dai said to Jing Chuan, "Come up." ”

There are stone steps on both sides of the city wall, and Jing Chuan goes up the city wall from one side.

Ma Dai was younger than the one Jing had seen in Suzhou. Under the helmet was a fair and immature face, even the hands were very white, the fingers were slender, no matter how you looked at it, it looked like an eighteen or nineteen-year-old scholar, and there was no trace of the vicissitudes of the border warrior from him. When Jing Chuan saw him for the first time, he was a little surprised, he didn't expect this commander to be so young.

When Jing Chuan saw Ma Dai's eyes, he was even more surprised: those eyes didn't match his appearance at all!

What Jing Chuan saw was a pair of old spicy and gloomy eyes, and he could also feel a fierce aura and a thick killing aura. Jing Chuan has walked the rivers and lakes for many years and has seen countless wicked people, but it is the first time Jing Chuan has seen a young but sinister person like Ma Dai.

Ma Dai could see from Jing Chuan's appearance and bearing that he was different from ordinary people, so he said: "You said that you are Ding Man's eldest brother, I don't think so, Ding Manke never mentioned to me that he also has a big brother." I think you killed Ding Man, right?"

Jing Chuan said, "Yes." I heard that you and he were sworn brothers. ”

Ma Dai laughed, turned to look at the city wall in the distance, and said, "A bandit, he is just my tool, if he is useless, I will kill him sooner or later." On that day, several bandits came to report to me that someone had killed Ding Man, and dozens of people from the sand gang also died under his knife, and Ding Man's knife skills were not bad, and if you can kill him, it means that there are still two hits. I've always wanted to meet you, how about it, let's compare?" Ma Dai said this with a contemptuous face, a gentleman's face.

Jing Chuan said: "I'm here to find someone. ”

"Running to Jiayuguan to find someone, you are not small. ”

"You arrested my third brother, right?"

"Your third brother, how do I know who your third brother is?"

"You have arrested all the men in Feiyun Town here, and my third brother is in Feiyun Town. ”

Ma Dai raised his eyebrows: "Oh, then you mean I caught the wrong person?"

Jing Chuan said: "You let my third brother go." ”

Ma Dai laughed and said, "Who do you think you are, and don't look at who you're talking to! I think you're here to die, right?"

Jing Chuan wanted to step forward and lock Ma Dai's throat, but he noticed that the knife in Ma Dai's hand turned slightly, and there were so many soldiers around, if he rushed over, it would be dangerous, so he didn't move.

Jing Chuan: "Then what do you want to do?"

"You're not qualified to negotiate terms with me, come on, tie up this person!"

Four soldiers immediately came over and put their knives on Jing Chuan's neck. If Jing Chuan wanted to resist, it would not be difficult to overturn the two soldiers and capture Ma Dai again, but he did not move and let the soldiers tie their hands behind their backs.

Ma Dai said: "This is a bit interesting! If I want to kill you now, I just need to use a knife, but I don't want to do this, I will spare you a few days first, I will show you a good show!"

Jing Chuan was faintly worried about Bai Zong in his heart.

Jing Chuan was taken to the dungeon by several soldiers.

The dungeon was very deep and huge, and after being escorted by the soldiers for a long distance, Jing Chuan came to the place where the prisoners were held in the dungeon.

The scene in the dungeon was beyond Jing Chuan's expectations.

When passing through the cells, Jing Chuan saw not dirty and dark cages, on the contrary, those cages were all very neat and decently arranged, with beds, wardrobes, tables, chairs and benches, and the conditions were comparable to that of an inn. The prisoners inside were not chained or dirty, but neatly dressed. When Jing Chuan passed in front of the cell, the people inside were all looking at him sideways, and Jing Chuan was very puzzled: These people are all people who know martial arts! Although it is not possible to completely tell whether a person can do martial arts, it can be roughly guessed from the look and demeanor of the person. In addition, Jing Chuan also saw that those people had swords, guns, swords, halberds, and all kinds of weapons at their hands.

Jing Chuan pondered: "Who are these people, and why are they locked up here?"

"Let's go!"

The soldiers in the back pushed Jing Chuan hard.

Jing Chuan took a look, there were about dozens of such cells in this passage from beginning to end, and in each cell there was a person who knew martial arts, and the people inside were either sitting, lying, or practicing.

Walking over in a row, Jing Chuan didn't see his third brother Bai Zong.

In the midst of his doubts, Jing Chuan was taken by the soldiers to the end of the passage, where there was a stone staircase leading to the next floor.

In the cell below, most of the people imprisoned were men from Feiyun Town, and Jing Chuan also saw a few teenagers and old people in it, but he still didn't see Bai Zong.

A few prisoners grabbed the door of the cell and shouted: "We have not committed any crime, why are you keeping us here? Let us out!"

Some prisoners smashed everything in their cells as if they had gone mad, while others sat on the edge of the table, drinking wine and eating meat.

The soldier took Jing Chuan to stop in the middle of the cell, opened the door of one cell, loosened Jing Chuan's ties, pushed Jing Chuan into the cell, and then locked the door and left.

Jing Chuan guessed that Bai Zong might be being held in a cell closer to the inside, so he shouted at the door: "Third brother, third brother!

It didn't take long for Jing Chuan to hear Bai Zong's surprised voice: "Fourth brother, why are you here too?"

Jing Chuan said: "I went back to Feiyun Town, and the people in Feiyun Town said that you were arrested in Jiayuguan, so I came." ”

Bai Zong said, "Brother, didn't you leave Feiyun Town with Zhang Jian, why did you come back again?"

"It's a long story, third brother. ”

"What about the blade?"

"I have entrusted Zhang Jian to a brother of mine, he will take Zhang Jian back to my hometown, and when I rescue you out, I will go back. ”

"Brother, you are so confused! why do you want to come back when you know the danger!"

Jing Chuan said: "Third brother, don't worry, there is a way to get out!"

Bai Zong was in another cell, and he sighed and said, "It's hard to get out of Jiayu Pass. ”

"Why did Ma Dai arrest you all here?"

"I don't know, he said that Feiyun Town was hiding assassins, so he arrested all the young men, and I don't know what the purpose was. ”

Jing Chuan knew very well what Ma Dai was talking about about the assassin, but he didn't want to say it in his cell, so he said, "Third brother, don't worry, I will save you!"

It stands to reason that Bai Zong is Jing Chuan's senior brother and was also a famous killer. As a junior disciple, Jing Chuan shouldn't have said such things to him, wouldn't this be looking down on Bai Zong's identity! But there is a reason for this: after Jing Chuan and the other four brothers completed the last assassination mission given to them by their master Chen Danian, Chen Danian suddenly disappeared, and then the four of them were chased and killed by the government and the rivers and lakes. The eldest Lu Jian and the second Tan Gong were killed one after another, and the third Baizong was plotted against by others, but fortunately escaped, but because the meridians on the double were cut, the martial arts have been abolished since then, and it is difficult to even swing a knife. Bai Zong fled from Middle-earth and moved to the northwest borderland, where he lived incognito.

When Jing Chuan first came to Feiyun Town to see Bai Zong, he didn't say anything on the surface, but he was actually very uncomfortable in his heart: after a few years, Bai Zong was no longer the terrifying killer he was back then, he had completely turned into an old man no different from ordinary people. There was no trace of murder in him, but instead of a sad twilight of old age. At first, Jing Chuan felt sad for Bai Zong in his heart, but when he saw that Bai Zong didn't seem to feel lost because of this, on the contrary, he liked this quiet life very much, Jing Chuan was happy for him again. Walking the rivers and lakes is indeed too tiring, the days of licking blood from the knife edge are not easy, Jing Chuan sometimes wants to live a peaceful life, but he can't help himself.

The relationship between the four Jingchuan brothers is very good. Chen Danian trained the four brothers to be cold-blooded and ruthless killers, and their mission was to constantly assassinate all kinds of people without asking why. They rarely communicate with each other, and even if they have time to communicate, the conversation is very simple, and they hardly talk about brotherly feelings. But the true love between brothers is buried in the bottom of their hearts, and under the indifferent faces, they value this friendship very much. Even after Jing Chuan came to Feiyun Town, although he did not greet Bai Zong enthusiastically on the surface, he could feel the brotherhood from Bai Zong's concerned face. Bai Zong seemed to have completely changed into a person, and became an elder that Jing Chuan respected and relied on, which moved Jing Chuan's cold heart!

Now, Bai Zong is the only person Jing Chuan can rely on.

According to the arrangement, Jing Chuan can take Zhang Jian to leave the northwest after leaving Suzhou Wei, but Jing Chuan always can't let go of the third brother Bai Zong in his heart, and in the face of brotherhood, he is willing to give his life!

Jing Chuan said the above sentence to Bai Zong with such a mood.

After hearing this, Bai Zong on the other side of the prison was silent, and his old tears were rampant!
