Chapter 214: A Thief's Heart Doesn't Die

The group continued to walk north along the road east of Changqing Mountain for half an hour. www.biquge.info After a while, seven or eight men with weapons and white clothes rushed out from the path on the left. The men blocked the way of the Yi Dan people. One of the leading men asked very arrogantly, "Hey, have you seen a woman with a peacock feather on her head passing by?"

The keen and intelligent Yi Dan guessed that the woman in this person's mouth should be the rumored Feather Fairy. So he asked, "Who are you, and why are you looking for that woman?"

The leading man replied, "We are the samurai of the Great Chowa Kingdom, and the woman is a traitor of our Great Chowa Kingdom, and we have come to capture her on the orders of the king." If someone dares to know and not report it, they are deliberately going against my country and the country. It has affected the relationship between our king and the envoy of Jinghai Festival, and I am afraid that no one will be able to afford it at that time. ”

Yi Dan also wanted to inquire more about the woman, so he asked with a fuss: "Then, may I ask the woman Your Excellency said, what is her name?"

The leading man said: "Her surname is Shun, and she is the remnant of the former Chao Nan Zhao. ”

As he spoke, another man next to him, who looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with polite and clear eyes, said to the leading man: "Don't talk about her like that, she is the princess of the previous dynasty after all." ”

The man in charge replied, "Princess, what kind of princess is she? A princess who has died in the country is not as good as a pheasant." Besides, she has never been a princess for a day, and now she is in the south of Caiyun, but I am a great country. ”

The polite man said: "The down-and-out nobleman is also a nobleman, as the saying goes, a soldier can be killed but not humiliated, don't you understand such a simple truth?"

The leading man said disdainfully: "Yo, I'll just say why you're so angry, I forgot, you Chen Yunsheng seems to be a down-and-out nobleman, right? If Lord Yang hadn't appreciated your little skills and recommended you to the emperor, I'm afraid you would have become a slave by now, wouldn't you? Now that the Holy Lord has sent you out to do things for the first time, do you have the same attitude? How can we work together to get things done?"

The man named Chen Yunsheng said: "A good man should fight on the battlefield to kill the enemy for the country, to do such a dirty thing, you are not only ashamed, but proud, it is really sad to think about it." ”

The leading man said: "Eat the king's lu, bear the king's worries, do you want to resist the decree and disobey?"

When Jiao Gongxian heard this, he answered angrily: "How can this be true, everyone in the world knows that Zheng Maihei, the Qingping official of Nanzhao State, killed the king of Nanzhao Long Shun and more than 800 people of his whole clan, established himself as the emperor, and established the Changhe State. This kind of behavior is a chaotic minister and thief who commits the following crimes. Now he has to go all the way to other countries to kill the only descendant of Long Shun. Are you going a little too far?"

The leading man said, "Who are you? How dare you curse me like this?" Do you know that it was Na Long Shun who was desolate and tyrannical and unpopular with the people, and everyone in Nanzhao hoped that he would collapse as soon as possible. My eldest chief and grandfather Guotai are doing the right thing for heaven, and I can't help you talk nonsense and talk nonsense. ”

Yi Dan listened to it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out the ins and outs of the matter, so he asked Jiao Gongxian: "May I ask Brother Jiao, what did they say?"

Jiao Gongxian said: "The woman surnamed Shun they are talking about should be what you are looking for, the feather fairy who lives in seclusion in Changqing Mountain." ”

Yi Dan said: "It turns out that if this is the case, I am also looking for the feather fairy." Listening to the tone of these people, it should be that the comer is not good. ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "Jiaowutang also sent people to look for her, but she is dedicated to cultivating Buddhism and does not enter the world. Not long ago, I heard that this senior had left Annan and returned to Changhe Kingdom, but these people didn't know it yet. ”

Yi Dan said: "From this point of view, that Changhe country must not be well-intentioned. Let's find this senior of the feather fairy as soon as possible, so that she won't go to take the Changhe national talent. ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "It should be so, but we don't have this time yet." Let's go, let's not get entangled with these people, it's too dangerous here, let's send Miss Rui'er and Li Shaoxia out of Annan first. ”

Yi Dan nodded and said, "Well, okay then." ”

The leading man asked aloud, "What are you muttering, do you know the whereabouts of the woman?"

Yi Dan asked rhetorically: "Why are you so rude? Don't you know that this is Annan, not your Changheguo?"

The leading man said: "Little girl, if you dare to be so rude to the Great Commander and the envoy of the country, then don't blame me for being rude to you." ”

As he spoke, the leading man drew his sword and slashed at Yi Dan.

The man named Chen Yunsheng on the side grabbed his arm and said, "Forget it, we're here to find someone, so don't cause trouble for no reason." This girl is right, this is Annan, not our Dachangheguo. We are ordered to come out to find someone, and if we cause trouble, I'm afraid we can't afford it. ”

The leading man broke free of Chen Yunsheng's wrist and scolded angrily: "Chen Yunsheng, why are you helping outsiders everywhere?"

Chen Yunsheng said: "I'm helping you and not helping your relatives, you are so unreasonable and messing around, of course I won't help you." ”

The leading man said angrily: "Okay, count you ruthless." ”

Chen Yunsheng said: "Discuss things in the future, please Commander Yao doesn't have to take it on himself." ”

"Ci is not in charge of the army, righteousness is not in charge of money, I really can't figure out how the emperor chose you as my deputy in the first place. The Yao Commander said in a strange manner.

"The emperor's thoughts, are we courtiers free to speculate?" Chen Yunsheng asked rhetorically.

"You... Hmph..."The Yao Commander was so angry that he had nothing to say.

Yi Dan saw that this Chen Yunsheng's words and deeds were upright, but he had a little admiration, so he sighed and said: "I think this big brother, you have a bit of heroism, but it's a pity that Mingzhu secretly voted." ”

Chen Yunsheng arched his hand and said: "The girl is in love, I am just a down-and-out person, and what I do is just a mess of food, not a hero." ”

Yi Dan said: "This big brother, you don't have to be too humble. In the following view, anyone who stresses righteousness and integrity is a hero. ”

Chen Yunsheng smiled and said, "I didn't expect you, a girl, to have such courage." It seems that in the Tang Dynasty, it is indeed the Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger. ”

Yi Dan said: "Listening to what you say, eldest brother, aren't you a Tang person?"

Chen Yunsheng said: "After the ancestor was also a great Han, he moved south due to turmoil and lived in Yunnan, so he became a white barbarian. ”

Yi Dan nodded and said, "Oh, I see. But anyway, we're still a family. ”

Chen Yunsheng said: "That's right, thank you girl for looking up to it so much." ”

Yi Dan said: "You're welcome, may I ask the eldest brother are you going south or north?"

Chen Yunsheng said: "The girl doesn't have to be polite, her surname is Chen, and she is called Yunsheng." We have a mission to find people here, but now the south is tense, and we can't get through, so we have to go north to find it again, and if we really can't find anyone, we just have to go back and resume our lives. ”

Yi Dan said: "It just so happens that we are also going north, why don't we go together?"

The leading man in the same company, Yao Commander, choked and said: "We have our own things to do, don't waste time with irrelevant idlers, since they don't know, then let's leave quickly." ”

Chen Yunsheng had no choice but to say to Yi Dan: "Then I will leave first, and there will be a period later." ”

Yi Dan also gave him his hand and said, "Okay, we will have a date later." ”

After saying goodbye, Chen Yunsheng and the men rode fast horses together and headed north.

After the men left, Yi Dan asked Jiao Gongxian curiously: "Brother Jiao, do you say that this king of Changhe Kingdom is too much? ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "The power struggle has always been your life and death. Annan is closely linked to Changheguo, so it has always been inevitable that there will be some friction. We naturally know something about the Changhe country. But it's really hard to say who is right and who is wrong, maybe only they know in their own hearts. ”

Yi Dan said curiously: "Then please ask Brother Jiao to tell me, what happened to this Changhe Kingdom and the previous Nanzhao?"

Jiao Gongxian said: "That person didn't lie just now, the last king of Nanzhao, Long Shun, was indeed a cruel and debaucherous faint monarch at the beginning. However, today's Changhe monarch is not a good type. He is fond of killing, and he is also obsessed with the art of immortality, and he is arrogant and lascivious all day long, which makes the government and the opposition complain, and this Changhe country is not far from the day of annihilation. ”

Yi Dan said: "It seems that the nature of the country is easy to change and difficult to change, and it is really a truth through the ages." It's a pity that it is always innocent people who suffer. ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "Yes, whether it is the former Nanzhao Kingdom or the current Changhe Kingdom, it is a very barbaric slave country. In the hands of each of their slave owners, there were hundreds or thousands of slaves for them to drive to hard labor. Slaves had no personal freedom, and they were allowed to be bought, sold, and killed by their slave owners, and it was a hell on earth, and it was hard to believe unless you saw it with your own eyes. ”

Yi Dan's eyes widened and he asked curiously, "Is there still such a barbaric and backward tribe in the world?" Is there really no heavenly reason, and no one has reached out to stop it?"

Jiao Gongxian said: "Stop? Who will stop it? There are too many injustices in this world, who can manage them?"

Yi Dan hurriedly said: "Having said that, if we encounter it, we must take care of it." ”

Jiao Gongxian smiled and said: "This is not a simple martial arts matter, but a major event of the family and country." Girl, you have a chivalrous heart, which is a good thing. But after all, it's just a person in the martial arts, I advise you not to wade into that troubled water, that's not something you can manage. ”

Yi Dan said: "I have admired the legendary feather fairy for a long time, and I came to Annan this time to visit this senior. When we have placed Brother Junxuan and Miss Qiao'er properly, we must go to find this senior of the Feather Fairy and bring her a letter, so as not to be plotted against her. ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "Miss Yi, you have this chivalrous heart, even I, Jiao Gongxian, am ashamed of myself." If it weren't for my heavy responsibility, I would definitely go through the martial arts with you and be a chivalrous man. ”

When Yi Dan heard this, he laughed and said, "Haha, haha, Brother Jiao, you have this sincerity, and you are already very moved." Being able to meet a bright and upright hero like Brother Jiao is a blessing in my next life. ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "Miss Yi is polite, this should be said by Jiao." ”

Du Qian listened to the lively conversation between the two, so he also echoed: "Yes, Miss Yi, you are so chivalrous. When the time comes, I, Du Qian, will definitely accompany you to Changhe Kingdom to find out the whereabouts of the Feather Fairy. ”

Yi Dan nodded and said, "Okay, then thank you Du Gongzi for your kindness." ”

Rui'er said: "Sister Yi, I admire you so much." You have peerless martial arts, walk the rivers and lakes, punish adultery and eliminate evil, act chivalrous and righteous, and be above board. is also a girl, but I can't even avenge the blood feud of my parents and relatives, I am really ashamed of my innocent parents and relatives who died tragically, and I have no face to meet my ancestors and ancestors after death. ”

Yi Dan said: "Miss Rui'er, don't say that. In fact, our backgrounds are very similar, my parents and relatives died at the hands of Emperor Zhu Wen and his son. The reason why I came out to explore the rivers and lakes is to make friends with people with lofty ideals in the world, hoping that one day I can use the power of the world's heroes to destroy the mediocre tyrants, avenge the tragic death of my parents, and eliminate harm for the people of the world. ”

Rui'er said: "Really, I didn't expect Sister Yi to have this ambition, although I have no ability, but I am also a person who understands Entubao, even if it is broken, I want to help you work together to fulfill this wish." ”

Junxuan also chimed in: "That's right, Rui'er's wish is my wish." Miss Yi, I hope that when the time comes, we can join forces to eliminate harm for the world. ”

Yi Dan was pleasantly surprised: "Really, great, thank you two for being so righteous and kind, I don't know how to thank you!"

Qiao'er on the side finally couldn't help but ask: "Sister Yi, brother, sister-in-law, your ideas are certainly very good, but after all, people are officials, and we are the people." With the strength of a few of us, I think of rebelling and confronting the imperial court, I'm afraid it's not so easy, right?"

Jun Xuan said: "The plan is in the people, the success is in the sky, as long as we do our best, everything else is left to fate." ”

Rui'er said, "That's right. If there is chaos today, the emperor is mediocre, and the princes of all walks of life do not obey the constraints of the imperial court at all. We can choose a powerful person with both ability and integrity to assist, and with the help of their strength, can't we get twice the result with half the effort?

Jun Xuan smiled and nodded, "Well, that's good, it's a combination of vertical and horizontal methods." It seems that my Rui'er didn't look at the art of war diagram less. The wisdom of the ancients has been used perfectly. ”

Rui'er said playfully: "Brother Junxuan, don't make fun of me. But what you said reminded me that I must learn all the tactics and strategies on this art of war map, and I hope that one day, I can help Sister Yi destroy the unruly tyrannical beam. ”

Yi Dan said happily: "Okay, then I will make an agreement with the two of you below, I hope this day will come as soon as possible, so that we can all realize our wishes as soon as possible." ”

Jiao Gongxian hurriedly said: "Hey, hey, hey, you are talking so lively, why are there only two of them? Such a magnificent event, you can't miss me Jiao Gongxian, how about counting me?"

Du Gao said: "Yes, yes, I am the same. Miss Yi, we don't know each other anymore. Being able to know a heroine like you, Miss Yi, is a blessing that I have cultivated in my previous life. If you want to be a hero, I'm going to be a hero too. Your business is my Du Gao's business. Please let me know if you have any instructions in the future. No matter the sword mountain and the sea of fire, I will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman. ”

Du Qian echoed: "Uncle Gao, you all have to fight to be heroes, I don't think so. I just want to be satisfied if I can make a little effort for Miss Yi with my meager strength. ”

Yi Dan listened to everyone's promise to help, and hurriedly said: "Since the heroes are so righteous and promised, then I will thank you friends here first! If everyone in the world can be like a few of them, then why worry about big things?"

Rui'er said: "That's right, that's great, then we can get together and discuss the plan." ”

Yi Dan asked, "Miss Rui'er, Brother Junxuan, what are your plans next?"

Junxuan said: "Hey, we don't know, let's take one step at a time." It's a shame to think that there is no place for the two of us in this world. ”

Jiao Gongxian said: "Let's go faster, now that Jiang Yizhong already knows our whereabouts, it is no longer safe here." If he instigates the lord to send someone to arrest you, it will be bad. ”

Junxuan said: "Hey, I thought it would be safe to return to my hometown, but I didn't expect... Forget it, let's go to Aizhou first to take out the art of war map, and then find a way to leave Annan. ”

Yi Dan said: "That's good, it just so happens that we are also going north, why don't we go together, so that we can take care of it." ”

Junxuan said, "Okay." That's what I mean. ”

Under the leadership of Junxuan and Rui'er, everyone came to a Confucian temple on the outskirts of Aizhou. The statue of the world's common teacher, Confucius, sits majestically on the high hall.

Jun Xuan took out a burden from the back of the statue of Kong Sheng. Slowly open the baggage, an old and quaint old book, impressively displayed in front of you. This is the Guiguzi Art of War map that Junxuan hid here a few days ago.

After getting the things, Junxuan said to Rui'er: "Rui'er, I've already got the things." ”

Rui'er said: "Great, Brother Junxuan, since we have got it, let's get out of here quickly." ”

Jun Xuan was just about to turn around and leave, when a sharp sword flew from his back.

"Ah, be careful. Rui'er shouted. Junxuan hurriedly turned around.

Rui'er hurriedly pushed Junxuan away, and Junxuan avoided the attack of the flying sword in time. Rui'er's left arm was scratched by the blade of the sword, and blood came out.

Jun Xuan drew his sword to block and fought with the flying sword.

"Rui'er, what's wrong with you?"

At this time, the Yi Dan people who were waiting outside rushed in one after another after hearing the movement.

I saw that Jiang Yizhong flew down from the roof of the Confucian Temple, holding a flying sword, and pounced towards Junxuan.

Junxuan has been practicing martial arts in Shaolin since he was a child, and he is a pure Shaolin martial artist, so he is naturally not afraid of being loyal to Na Jiang. It's just that Rui'er was injured at this time, and he was worried about Rui'er's safety, so he absentmindedly fought with Najiang Yizhong.

Yi Dan stepped into the threshold and saw that Jiang Nizhong was raiding Junxuan and the others, so he shouted: "Jiang Nizhong, you go and return, despicable and shameless." ”

Jiang Ruzhong said: "When did I say that I won't come again?

Yi Dan hurriedly ran into the house, helped Rui'er to the side, tore off the corner of her clothes, and bandaged her wounds.

Jiao Gongxian accused Na Jiang Yizhong: "Since Your Excellency's art of war is so proficient, why do you still want to grab this art of war?"

Jiang Ruzhong said: "Don't talk nonsense, if you hand over the art of war, I will spare you from death." ”

Yi Dan said: "The subordinates are defeated, and they are not ashamed to speak." ”

Jiang Ruzhong beckoned gently, only to see that the front and back of the Confucian Temple were surrounded by hundreds of soldiers.

Yi Dan stared left and right, and said disdainfully: "Do you think that just with you a few people, you can do whatever you want?"

Jiang Yizhong said: "Then try it." ”

Jiang Ruzhong beckoned, and all the soldiers surrounded him.

Yi Dan and the others showed their weapons and started a scuffle in this Confucian temple in Aizhou.

After dozens of rounds of fighting between Yi Dan and Jiang Nizhong, when he saw someone sneaking up on his junior brother Youming, Yi Dan turned around to help Youming. And Junxuan hurriedly stepped up and had a head-to-head confrontation with Na Jiang Yizhong.

After dozens of moves, Jun Xuan, who grew up in Shaolin martial arts in elementary school, sneered: "Your Shaolin swordsmanship is nothing more than that, if you don't show your real kung fu again, don't blame me for being unkind." ”

After Jiang Yizhong and Junxuan officially fought, they realized that Junxuan's Shaolin martial arts were not under him. So he simply gave up the jerky Shaolin swordsmanship, and attacked Junxuan's next game by quickly closing the sword blade.

Jun Xuan retreated, blocking Jiang Ruzhong's attack on his legs.

Yi Dan repelled the man who had attacked Youming, turned around and unleashed his blade palm, slashing at the filament connecting Jiang Nizhong's sword hilt and blade.

The filament was hard and flexible, although it was not cut off, but the strong air flow made it bend inward fiercely, and at the same time, the blade of the sword also bounced back and stabbed into Jiang Yizhong's left shoulder.

Jiang Ruzhong was stabbed into the shoulder by his own sword blade, he endured the pain, and after pulling out the sword blade, he sealed himself and stopped the blood temporarily.

Du Qian laughed and said, "I really deserve it." ”

Jiang Ruzhong was wounded by a sword, and seeing that the situation was not good, he had to jump out of the window of the Confucian Temple, ride the horse that had been prepared, and flee quickly. And the rest of the soldiers scattered as birds and beasts, and fled in confusion from all directions.

Du Qian tried to rush up and capture a few soldiers. Yi Dan hurriedly shouted: "Du Gongzi, forget it, don't chase it." ”

"But, they..."

"Can't you see it, these people are all helpers that Jiang Ruzhong temporarily found, and at first glance they are the soldiers in the hands of the Jinghai Jiedu envoy. Yi Dan said.

"Miss Yi is right, these people are indeed my soldiers in Annan. Jiao Gongxian said.

"I didn't expect this Jiang Yizhong to have so much ability. You can borrow troops from the envoys of the Jinghai Festival. Dugo said.

"Now we have to be more careful. Yi Dan said.

Jiao Gongxian walked up to Rui'er and said, "Miss Rui'er, you are injured, let's go to the town in front of us to find a place and let the doctor show you." ”

Yi Dan took out the bottle of Cordyceps Jiuzhen Pill from his arms, poured out one and handed it to Rui'er: "Miss Rui'er, eat this quickly." ”

Rui'er took the pill and asked, "May I ask Miss Yi, what is this?"

Yi Dan said: "This is the healing medicine that my master gave me, Cordyceps Jiuzhen Pill. It is quite effective for internal and external injuries. You eat it first to stop the bleeding and relieve the pain. Let's go to the doctor again. ”

Rui'er listened to Yi Dan's words and immediately swallowed the Cordyceps Jiuzhen Pill.

"Okay, let's hurry as soon as possible. (To be continued.) )
