Chapter 6: Thirteen Payments of the Iron Whip
A night of drunkenness without dreams, the sun knows the sky.
Deng Tianyuan woke up around the time of Shen Shi, and his pride for Wu Shuang last night was still unfinished. The hot tea that was just served was the best antidote for hangovers, not to mention the "Goubuli Buns" that were not as good as seeing them, so he felt that he had really chosen the right place to live in this inconspicuous inn.
After a while, two pots of tea were exhausted, and a dozen were packed, and Deng Tianyuan suddenly felt energetic. He heard that outside Luoyan City, the scenery of Fenglin Mountain is beautiful, and he just took a trip today if he had nothing to do.
So, he made a brief preparation and left the inn.
There were already a few carriages that took advantage of the business, and when they saw Deng Tianyuan, they were so happy that they rushed to ask.
"Guest officer, where to go chic, my car is cheap and affordable. ”
Deng Tianyuan looked at the coachmen, looked at this, looked at that, and in the end, he didn't get into anyone's car, only looked at the old carriage of the old man Longzhong on the side of the road, and walked over, he didn't ask the price, just got in the car and said.
"Let's go, go to Fenglin Mountain outside Luoyan City!"
Don't look at the old man, don't dislike his carriage is dilapidated, and there is a tendency to run through the clouds, fortunately Deng Tianyuan is a person with deep skills, otherwise, the old, weak, sick and disabled will not fall half to death, but will also be seriously injured.
Such a fast carriage, a place where Fenglin Mountain can be seen, of course, is just around the corner.
The scenery here is really strange.
The green mountains surround the clouds, the maple leaves are like fire, the pagoda towers over the blue sky, the mountain path is detoured and mysterious, the birds sing endlessly at four o'clock, and the pine ape cries are often heard in the eight festivals; it is really a blessed place for the soul in the world, and the mountains and rivers are beautiful and beautiful!
The carriage entered a dense forest, and before Deng Tianyuan got out of the car, the coachman suddenly had a seizure, and he jumped out of the carriage with a series of extremely fast movements, and from under the bottom of the car, he pulled out an abnormally sharp horse chopping knife and slashed at the waist of the carriage.
With a bang, the carriage was cut in half, but what was surprising was that the coachman did not find Deng Tianyuan's body. He was wondering to himself, only to hear Deng Tianyuan's words from under the carriage.
"Friend, I have no grievances with you, why are you so vicious and want to put me to death?"
When the coachman heard this, he hurriedly cut off the carriage sideways with another knife and said.
"No way, do what you are told!"
Deng Tianyuan hurriedly rolled on the spot, jumped up from under the coachman's seat, and in an instant, only to hear the uproar of the leaves, more than a dozen men jumped down from the tree, and surrounded Deng Tianyuan in the heart.
At this time, the coachman also took off his camouflage coat, revealing the same red clothes as the gang, and when he looked at him again, it turned out to be a majestic man.
The man said.
"Why, the carriage ran so fast just now, and it didn't break your old bones!"
Deng Tianyuan laughed and said.
"That's the problem. I'll just say! An old coachman can't drive such a ferocious car. What's more, your long, big horse chopping knife, I have already discovered its hiding place when I got into the car. So, please use your brains next time you do something bad, and don't take this clumsy thing, expose your feet, and be embarrassed. ”
The man said.
"It turns out that you are still a ghost head! I can hear that you have thirteen iron whips in your hand, and today we want to see and see!"
Deng Tianyuan looked at them and said.
"There are only twelve of you, if you don't beat me, just more, the old man's iron whip is a whip that kills people. ”
"Stop talking nonsense, give it to me!" said the man. Suddenly, the sword light and sword shadow were overwhelming. In the sound of knives, people clearly heard a series of crackling iron whips! The sound flickered far and near, like thunder in the sky, and it flashed on the top of the mountain, but unexpectedly, it suddenly ran to the top of the head and exploded with a bang! It startled people a lot. In this way, back and forth, even though there were seven or eight loud sounds, the screams in them were incessant, sensational!
When the last iron whip fell, the field was as silent as death.
I saw that the twelve swords were neatly nailed to the thick nanmu trunk on the opposite side. More than a dozen men in red were injured to almost varying degrees, some had a bloody mark on their foreheads, some had flesh on their nostrils, some had a bloody mark on their necks over their chests, and some had torn clothes on their legs, hands, backs, or waists, and were scarred! But at this moment, every red-clothed warrior was like a puppeteer, standing motionless on the ground.
Deng Tianyuan said.
"The old man's iron whip does not kill the nobody, tell me quickly, who called you here?"
Suddenly, a person behind him said.
"The dead cannot speak. ”
Deng Tianyuan turned his head sharply, only to see Wang Biao coming, he asked.
"Wang Shaoxia is saying that these people are dead?" When he said and looked back, he saw that these people were bleeding from the corners of their mouths one by one, and they fell to the ground one after another and died.
Deng Tianyuan sighed and said.
"The old man doesn't have the intention of killing, why do they have to commit suicide one by one?"
This is called doing what is commanded. Wang Biao said.
"Acting on orders?"
"Yes, that's what people are told to do. Once they found that they couldn't complete the task, they were afraid that they would be caught and tortured by the other party, and they would be forced to question the mastermind behind the scenes, so they had no choice but to commit suicide by taking poison. ”
"I see! Who did they order?" Deng Tianyuan asked, "Wang Shaoxia, why did you come here?"
"That's exactly what I want to know. Wang Biao said, "Because, when I left Sun's house just now, I also met such a group of people on the road, and they also committed suicide because they did not complete the task." Therefore, I was thinking, what could have caused such a big disaster? And in the past two days, I have not done anything except promise to participate in the Jade Pendant Treasure Chart Witness Ceremony invited by Wu Shuang, so it seems that this group of people is obviously here for this matter! Therefore, I thought, didn't you also receive Wu Shuang's invitation a few days ago! So, I rushed to the Baile Inn to find you, and heard that the innkeeper said that you were here, so I rushed here, and it happened to catch up with this wonderful scene!"
"Who could it be, to deal with us like this?" Deng Tianyuan pondered, and suddenly he remembered and said, "It must be Huyan Wujiang!"
"How so?"
"Because he was also invited to the treasure meeting!"
"Then why did he put us to death?"
Because he had bad intentions, he coveted the treasure of Wu Shuang. ”
Wang Biao stroked his palms and praised.
"Deng Daxia is really wise and brave, and I also deduced it like this. ”
"In this way, at tomorrow's treasure meeting, wouldn't it be more auspicious!"
"Yes, we should be careful everywhere. Wang Biao said, "Not only that, but I also received a generous gift early this morning!"
"Generous gifts?" Deng Tianyuan asked puzzled.
"Yes. Wang Biao said, "Two boxes of gold and silver jewelry are worth a lot of money!"
"Then do you know who will give this rich gift?"
"Of course, it was also sent by the mastermind behind the scenes!"
"Oh!"
"It's called, coercion and temptation!"
"Then it seems that there is a shocking conspiracy in this!"
"That's right!" Wang Biao said, "It is said that in the past two days, there have been a thousand people pouring into the Wild Goose City, and they are extraordinary!"
"There are so many martial arts masters, what are they here for?"
"If I'm not mistaken, they are all here for Wu Shuang's 'Jade Pendant Treasure Map'!"
"Ah, sure enough, people die for money, birds die for food. ”
