Jing Chuan heard the sound of unchaining, opened his eyes, and sat up from the bed. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Two soldiers stood at the door of the cell, one picking the lock, the other carrying a plate with wine and food.

In front of the cell opposite, two soldiers also stood as well.

A man who looked like a general walked to the middle and shouted, "Listen to me." This is specially prepared for you by Commander Ma, have you seen it, good wine and food, and all you need to live-"

Before the general could finish speaking, a man interrupted him and shouted at him: "What are you doing here? I haven't committed any royal law, let me out!"

The general walked towards the man, stopped in front of him, and said, "There are assassins hiding among you, so I have arrested you all, and when it is clear, I will naturally let you go." ”

When everyone heard this, they all ran to the door and shouted, "We are not assassins, let us go back!"

The prison cell suddenly became noisy.

"Shut up, it's not up to you to decide whether the assassins are or not, if anyone deliberately makes trouble again, don't worry about killing!"

The people in the cell were afraid to speak.

The soldier brought food and drinks into the cell. Jing Chuan saw a knife hanging from the soldier's waist, and wanted to go over and snatch the knife and kill it, but finally dispelled this idea. Jiayuguan is so heavily guarded, even if he has the ability to kill out of the prison, he will not want to kill out of the city.

The soldier put down his food and drink, and withdrew, and the other soldier immediately locked the door.

The general said, "Eat, when you're done, I'll take you to the school later."

Immediately someone spoke again.

"It can't be poisonous in this drink, right?"

"What are you doing on campus?"

"What does that mean?"

。。。。。。

The general ignored them, and when he saw that the cells were locked, he left with his soldiers.

Jing Chuan looked at the wine and food on the table, didn't think about anything, grabbed the meat and ate it, and poured the wine and drank it.

He hadn't eaten for a day, and he was indeed hungry.

A middle-aged man in the opposite cell saw Jing Chuan sitting calmly eating and drinking, and said to him sarcastically: "At this time, you still have the heart to eat, so you are not afraid that the wine and food will be poisoned?"

Jing Chuan ignored him and continued to eat. The man looked at it for a moment, then returned to the table very boredly, stared at the food and wine on the table, suddenly flipped the table with both hands, then grabbed the bench and slammed it against the door of the cell, and scolded like crazy: "Let me out, you dog thieves!"

He shouted hoarsely, but no soldier paid attention to him.

At this time, an old man's voice came: "Don't shout, you've been caught here, and you still want to go back?"

The middle-aged man said loudly, "I'm not an assassin, why should you arrest me?"

"No one is an assassin here. ”

"Then why are you still keeping us here?"

The old man said, "Do you think that Ma Dai really came here because some assassin captured us?"

"What's the reason for that?"

"I've heard people say before that Ma Dai is good at swordsmanship, and he specially finds someone to practice swords, and the methods are cruel, and I don't know how many heroes died under his knife. In order to practice swords, he often caught those who knew martial arts to Jiayuguan, and none of the people who came here could get out alive. Ding Man, a bandit of the Sand Gang, was specially designed to help Ma Dai keep an eye on the road, but anyone who knew martial arts would be caught in Jiayuguan and practiced knives for Ma Dai. ”

After listening to the old man's words, Jing Chuan put down the wine glass that was brought to his mouth. He remembered that when he first came to Feiyun Town, Bai Zong had said to him: Ma Dai came to Jiayuguan not to defend the border at all, but to practice swordsmanship, and his swordsmanship was learned from Jingchuan's master Chen Danian.

Jing Chuan thought: "No wonder I can't see the appearance of being stationed in the frontier from Ma Dai, it turns out that I came here specifically to practice swordsmanship." Most of the people in Feiyun Town used to walk the rivers and lakes, and there were many people who knew martial arts, and Ma Dai caught these people to Jiayuguan in the name of catching assassins, just to practice knives. ”

Immediately, someone retorted: "Don't talk nonsense here, there are few people here who can do martial arts, and they have lived in Feiyun Town for so long, and they have always done their duty, and they are safe with Jiayuguan, isn't Ma Dai still clear?"

The old man sneered and said, "Kuai Zhengliang, aren't you ashamed to say this? Who doesn't know that before you came to Feiyun Town, you specialized in killing people and stealing goods? Do you think that when you came to Feiyun Town, no one would know what you had done before? Everyone knows that the people who come to Feiyun Town are not ordinary people, and they know whether they can do martial arts or not, but they just don't want to reveal their identities. Now you say that you don't know martial arts, pretending to be a common person, do you think anyone will believe it?"

After hearing this, Kuai Zhengliang "snorted" angrily, and then stopped squeaking.

The rest of the prison was silent. Everyone fell silent, and this silence reawakened their former identities and martial arts. The cell was as silent as death, except for the crackling of the oil lamps hanging on the walls.

After a while, Kuai Zhengliang spoke: "Since this is the case, it's a big deal to fight with him, let him see the power of my Kuai-style knife technique!"

Others did not respond to Kuai Zhengliang.

A few let out a sneer.

Jing Chuan was worried about Bai Zong: If he really wanted to compete with Ma Dai, Bai Zong would not be Ma Dai's opponent at all now, and I am afraid that he would be more than lucky when the time comes!

On the other side of the prison, Bai Zong did not speak.

After an hour or so, the previous general came down with a team of soldiers, took Jing Chuan and everyone else out of the prison and escorted them to the school grounds. Together with the people in the upper cell, there are a hundred people in total. The generals divided the 100 men into two teams of 50 each.

Jing Chuan and Bai Zong stood together. Jing Chuan has been observing the situation around the school grounds. The school yard is located in the middle of the city, surrounded by city walls, and is heavily guarded, so it is impossible to get out.

Bai Zong said: "Fourth brother, don't look at it, this Jiayu Pass is as solid as an iron city, and it is impossible to get out." ”

Jing Chuan said: "Third brother, no matter what, I have to take you out!"

Bai Zong smiled slightly and said, "I don't care, it's mainly you, you must get out of the city alive, and Zhang Jian still depends on you." ”

Jing Chuan looked at Bai Zong: Bai Zong now has gray hair, wrinkles, age spots on his face, and his body has become rickety, looking no different from an ordinary old man.

Bai Zong seemed to know what Jing Chuan was thinking, so he said: "Fourth brother, don't worry, although I haven't used the knife for many years, I haven't forgotten the knife technique, and if I can use the knife again, I will die without regrets." ”

Jing Chuan said, "I also brought your knife." ”

Bai Zong said, "This is the best. If I die, you can keep that knife and pass it on to Zhang Jian in the future. ”

"Yes. ”

"Ma Dai learned the master's sword technique, and the master must have taught him the tricks to break our sword technique, if you fight him, be careful. ”

Jing Chuan nodded: "The knife technique passed on to us by the master deliberately allows us to expose flaws in the return knife and the lower plate, which ordinary people can't see, but if they see it, it will be broken." When I saw the bodies of the eldest brother and the second brother, they were both stabbed in the leg twice, and then their throats were cut. ”

Bai Zong said: "Have you thought of a way? I pondered for a long time, and found that no matter what, there are always flaws, and this hand left by the master is really ruthless!"

Jing Chuan said: "Sink and catch the snake to avoid the tail, the upper side of the blade back to the front, the front back half and the road turns, use the force and knead, ride the wind out of the blade." ”

After hearing this, Bai Zong thought for a while, nodded and said, "The fourth brother is stronger than me, and he broke the master's sword technique, among our four brothers, your sword technique is the best." Although Master's sword skills are good, they are not the most powerful. Over the years, I have figured out a set, but people are old, and their physical strength can't keep up, and many places are not good, so I didn't tell you. That set of sword techniques is hidden in the scabbard of the Ling Long knife, if I die, you go back and take out the sword technique, with your understanding, you will definitely be able to develop it into a set of sword techniques that can match the master, fourth brother remember!"

Jing Chuan still wanted to speak, but at this time, Ma Dai led a large group of people into the school field.

Ma Dai did not wear armor, but a light white robe. There was a knife hanging from his waist, and because of the scabbard, he couldn't see what the knife looked like.

The general ran to the front of Ma Dai, said a few words to him, and then turned to everyone and said: "The commander has an order, you are now two groups of people, each group of fifty, today is to give you weapons, let you practice swords, familiar with swordsmanship." ”

The people in Feiyun Town didn't have weapons in their hands, and when a few people saw that everyone else was holding their own swords, they said, "Why do they have their own weapons and we don't?

Ma Dai turned around and glanced at the soldiers behind him, and a dozen soldiers each walked to the front of the group with several weapons and placed them on the ground.

The general said, "The commander said, you can use your own weapons, and whoever has weapons will have their weapons here, and you can come and claim them later." If you don't have one, we have everything here, so you can get it yourself. ”

After speaking, more than a dozen soldiers came out, carrying more than a dozen large shelves, on which there were swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks.

"Okay, after you have selected your weapons, you can practice on your own, remember, there is only one day today. ”

Although many people below were angry, but the matter had come to this point, there was nothing to be done, and those who did not have weapons stepped forward to find their weapons.

Jing Chuan and Bai Zong found their own knives, as well as Ding Man's Dongying katana.

When Jing Chuan was holding a knife, he saw Ma Dai sitting down at a table and drinking tea.

Jing Chuan asked Bai Zong, "Third brother, don't you think it's strange?"

Bai Zong said, "What's strange?"

"Ma Dai is just a commander of Jiayuguan, and his official position is not high, but he can call the wind and rain in Jiayuguan. ”

"His father is an important minister of the imperial court, he came here just to hang a false position, and he can have such a high status, which has something to do with his father. ”

Jing Chuan didn't think so simple, he remembered that night in Suzhou, Ma Dai was also one of several people who plotted rebellion, if he was just in Jiayuguan and did not control the army, how could he participate in the rebellion?

Jing Chuan said: "Third brother, do you know what the general soldier of Jiayuguan is called?"

Bai Zong said: "I have heard of it, called Huo Qijian, I heard that it was the famous general of the Han Dynasty Huo Quai, who made great achievements in the battle of Kuizhou in the fourth year of Hongwu, and was the second rank of the dragon and tiger general. He is upright, brave and good at fighting, and has the legacy of his ancestor Huo Quai, and is deeply supported by the people. Later, because he offended the villain in the court, he was impeached, cut off his official position, and demoted to Jiayuguan as a chief soldier. ”

"Why can't you see the general army in this Jiayu Pass? On the contrary, it is a small commander of Ma Dai who is in charge of the power? Don't you think it is strange that all the people here are under the command of Ma Dai alone?"

When Bai Zong heard Jing Chuan say this, he suddenly understood, and said, "Could it be that Huo Qijian was arrested by Ma Dai? Ma Dai is now the chief soldier of Jiayu Pass?"

Jing Chuan nodded and said, "If Huo Qijian is really in charge of Jiayu Pass, how can he let a villain like Ma Dai be so arrogant?"

"It must be so. If Jiayuguan falls into the hands of Ma Dai, I am afraid it will be dangerous. ”

Because there were people around, Jing Chuan did not tell Bai Zong about Ma Dai's involvement in the rebellion.

Jing Chuan looked at Ma Dai who was sitting in the distance, and couldn't help but clench the knife, and a murderous aura surged in his chest.

"Third brother, let's practice knives. ”
