Chapter 5 Revisiting Yanjing

Liu Shaoqing then used 'Stars in the sky, meteors appeared', this trick was used to deal with Ling Junlai, but Ling Junlai's martial arts were as strong as a celestial, and the power of this move was broken before it was exerted, and now Liu Shaoqing is no longer what it used to be, even if Ling Junlai is resurrected, he must deal with it carefully. I saw that his long sword turned into thousands of stars, like a starry sky scattered. Lin Ling gave up on himself since he cut off an arm, immersed in wine-colored wealth all day long, and his skills were greatly reduced, at this time his confidence had been lost, and he couldn't tell the difference between reality and falsehood, and his eyes were full of fear.

Just when he closed his eyes and waited for death, he suddenly heard a "clanging" sound, the starry sky disappeared, and a broken sword fell to the ground, Liu Shaoqing stopped the attack, looked at the broken sword in his hand, and sighed. It turned out that this ordinary long sword couldn't withstand his strong true qi, and it was actually broken. Lin Lingsu broke out in a cold sweat and took a few steps back, for fear that he would attack again. Liu Shaoqing didn't even look at him, just stared at the broken sword in his hand, with a sad look in his eyes, silently picked up the blade of the sword, inserted it into the scabbard together with the hilt, and then took off the sword and put it on the table respectfully. Said to Xiao Er, who was hiding behind the tree: "Shopkeeper, please borrow a shovel." The shopkeeper said tremblingly: "Wait a minute, the villain will go and get it." ”

Luo Tianchu stepped forward and asked, "I don't know what the master wants to use the shovel?" Liu Shaoqing said: "Bury the sword." Luo Tianchu was surprised: "Why do you want to bury the sword." Liu Shaoqing explained: "The sword is a good teacher and a good friend, and a broken sword is no different from losing a friend, so it must be buried and buried in the ground." Luo Tianchu sighed in his heart, secretly thinking that only such a sword-obsessed person could practice shocking swordsmanship.

Lin Lingsu and Song Lianfeng took the opportunity to retreat step by step, and after retreating to ten zhang away, they pulled their legs and ran. Sun Xiaomei hurriedly reminded: "Xiao Daxia, they have to run." Liu Shaoqing said: "The sword has been broken, the murderous spirit has been lost, and I can't fight anymore, I hope Mrs. will forgive me." Sun Xiaomei said hurriedly: "The surname Song hurts the heavens and harms the reason, careless of human life, how can a hero let the thief leave for a sword?" Lu Guangcai said: "Xiao Daxia has his own principles, let's not make it difficult for others." Xiao Daxia saved our lives, and this kindness is unforgettable. Liu Shaoqing didn't speak, his mind was only on the broken sword. Seeing that the two of them were fleeing farther and farther, Sun Xiaomei hurriedly stomped her feet and said, "Master Lu, what should we do." Lu Guangcai looked at the dead and wounded companions and said: "It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, according to the old man's wishes, we will go to Shaolin to ask the silent abbot to preside over justice." With Shaolin in charge of us, are you still afraid of those two thieves?" Sun Xiaomei and the others should say in unison, and immediately carried the two corpses of the Nanshan Dart Bureau on their horses, and after thanking Liu Shaoqing and them, they turned south and rushed to the Shaolin Temple.

At this time, Xiao Er also took a shovel, and Liu Shaoqing dug a long pit under the poplar tree with his own hands and buried the sword. Zhu Yushi bought some dry food from the store, and the five of them continued to rush north.

Lin Lingsu and Song Lianfeng ran out of ten miles in one go, and only stopped after entering a small forest to make sure that no one was chasing them. Although Lin Lingsu has been defeated before, but the opponents are all grandmasters like Ling Junlai, although he is still honored, but today he was planted in the hands of a junior, his reputation was discredited, and his mood was extremely bad, thinking that if it wasn't for his disabled arm, he would not lose, and scolded Ling Junlai's eight generations of ancestors in his heart. Looking up, he saw a strangely shaped branch in the tree, and the shape turned into a mocking smile in his eyes. The more he looked, the angrier he became, and he flew up and struck the branches with his palm, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Song Lianfeng understood the bad mood of the master and comforted: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and the master doesn't have to care." Lin Lingsu snorted and said, "I broke my arm for the teacher, and I didn't use it, and now I am insulted by a junior, this breath is really hard to swallow." Song Lianfeng said: "The disciple is incompetent, and it is difficult to share the worries of the master. Lin Lingsu said thoughtfully: "Tai Chi Pisces Gong is still imperfect, and it is difficult to make a difference when you encounter a person with strong internal strength, so it seems that you have to ask that person again." Song Lianfeng said strangely: "Who are you looking for?" Lin Lingsu said: "I'll tell you as a teacher in the future." Song Lianfeng didn't ask any more. Lin Lingsu continued: "You were originally a disciple of a famous and decent family, but your reputation as a teacher is not good, and you have ever regretted changing to become a teacher. Song Lianfeng said in fear: "The master is as kind to the disciple as a mountain, and as soon as he enters the door wall, he teaches the disciple to learn the mastery, and he trusts the disciple so much, the disciple can only repay him with death." The two veterans of the Zhengyi faction were partial to Dong Ping, and let him inherit the mantle of the head of the family, the little junior sister regretted her marriage and fell in love with Zhu Yushi, and Na Luo Tianchu, who repeatedly insulted me, making it difficult for me to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes. Lin Lingsu said: "This world belongs to the strong, and women and dignity are only worthy of the strong, and if you want to take revenge, you must become a strong man." Song Lianfeng responded: "Yes, I understand." By the way, just now the disciple heard the surname Lu say that he wanted to go to Shaolin Temple for help, Shaolin bald donkeys love to meddle in things, if they come out, I am afraid it will be very troublesome. Lin Lingsu sneered: "Why are you afraid of Shaolin bald donkeys as a teacher, but more things are better than less things, they haven't gone far yet, aren't we catching up with them now." ”

Song Lianfeng said with a smile: "Master, what do you think of that little widow's appearance?" Lin Lingsu smiled evilly: "The skin is delicate, the appearance is good, and the style is varied, which can be regarded as the top grade." Song Lianfeng smiled and said, "It's better to kill the others, and only leave that woman to serve the master." Lin Lingsu laughed and said, "The proposal is good, it's rare that you are so sensible." After getting that woman, you will also enjoy the blessings. Song Lianfeng hurriedly said: "How dare an apprentice share a woman with his master." Lin Lingsu said with a smile: "As long as you are loyal to your teacher, the more despicable and shameless you are, the more you appreciate it as a teacher, what does it have to do with playing a woman." You're still a virgin, and you'll know the benefits when you experience the joy of sociality. After becoming a teacher, he will also pass on the skills in your room and make you a real man. Song Lianfeng's face turned red and said, "Now is the time for apprentices to practice, and they don't dare to covet women." Lin Lingsu said: "As a teacher, he once accepted five apprentices, they had no perseverance to learn martial arts, and they were in a hurry to come out and roam the rivers and lakes, but they all became flower thieves and were killed." Song Lianfeng said: "The apprentice will not, I will always accompany the master in the future and honor your old man." Lin Lingsu was overjoyed and said: "Okay! The teacher really didn't mistake you, let's go after the little widow, don't let them run away." ”

On this day, Luo Tianchu came to the border of Hebei, which is already the territory of the Jin Kingdom, and every city is very strict, especially for people wearing Song costumes, they are searched all over the body, making it difficult in every way, and the slightest dissatisfaction is a punch and kick. In order to avoid trouble, Luo Tianchu changed into the Jurchen clothes prepared in advance, crossed the city, and walked on the trails. Now that their dry food is exhausted and their clothes are in tatters, others can still endure hardships, but Liu Shaoqing, who is accustomed to pampering them, feels quite uncomfortable. What's more, he still wears a human skin mask every day, which makes him very uncomfortable, and only in the dead of night does he go to the river to take off the mask and wash it well. Luo Tianchu they all stripped naked and went to the river to bathe, but Liu Shaoqing refused to be naked in front of outsiders, although the itching on his body was uncomfortable, he could only endure meditation and practice, calm his mood, he also regarded this move as a kind of practice. Luo Tianchu also knew that it was difficult for him, and after discussing, he came to Yanjing to rest the horse. The Blood Knife Fort is famous in Yanjing, and Ling Junlai has also won the honor of being the first in the world here, but when everything reaches the pinnacle of glory, it is often the moment of fall.

Yanjing had twice as many guards as before, interrogating those who entered the city one by one. This year, Luo Tianchu and Zhu Yushi both learned the Jurchen language from Cui Xing, and they were quite proficient in speaking, after Luo Tianchu answered and interrogated, he gave the golden soldier a tael of silver, and the golden soldier weighed it a few times, waved his hand and said: "Go over." Luo Tianchu thanked him and led the horse into the city cave together.

After only a few steps, the golden soldier suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute!" Luo Tianchu turned around and said, "What else does the military master command." The golden soldier walked to Luo Tianchu's horse, stretched out his hand and touched the burden on the horse, his face changed suddenly, and he asked: "What are you doing with weapons! Are you practicing your family?" Luo Tianchu hurriedly explained: "We bought medicinal materials and brought out a lot of silver, and now the world is uneasy, and we only bring weapons for self-defense, so don't doubt it." As he spoke, he took out three taels of silver and stuffed it to Jin Bing, and said: "It is not easy for the military master to be on duty, and this little meaning should only be used to buy wine for the military master." The golden soldier quietly put away the silver, squinted at the other golden soldiers, and saw that none of them had found it, so he said, "Let's go, enter the city according to the rules." Luo Tianchu smiled and said, "Yes, don't worry." Only then did I enter the city without danger.

As soon as I entered the city, I saw a row of wanted notices posted on the wall, the portraits of the late Ling Junlai, Jiang Feiyan, and Lu Yi had been taken down, while the portraits of Luo Tianchu and others were still there. The old wanted warrant had been yellowed and worn, and the new one had been pasted on top of it, and it had been affixed to as many as five layers. Luo Tianchu found that the portrait was much more like than before, and his value had risen sharply, and Luo Tianchu's reward had risen to 200,000 taels. Luo Tianchu chuckled and said, "If someone kills us, we will become rich overnight." ”

Yanjing is still thriving in the market, and the people are surging, but Luo Tianchu's mood is different, a year ago he was enthusiastic and carefree. Now that the burden of thousands of catties is on his shoulders, the military and civilians in Guanzhong are the only ones who look ahead, and his decision will affect the future of millions of soldiers and civilians, which is indeed heavy for a young man who is only 20 years old, but this is his fate, and he must bear it.

Pear Flower Inn is located on the bustling East Street, with an old brand, good wings and fair prices. As soon as he entered the door, Xiao Er greeted him warmly and said, "Is the guest officer eating or staying overnight?" Luo Tianchu said: "Yes, do you have clean guest rooms?" We want five. Xiao Er smiled: "The rooms in this store are all clean, it is the off-season for business, the rooms are abundant, and the guest officers can live with peace of mind." Luo Tianchu rewarded him with three coins and said, "The horses should be good to drink raw, not sloppy." Xiao Erlian claimed to be.

Xiao Er took them to the guest room to put down their luggage, and said: "The guest officer has been tired all the way, there is a bathhouse in the backyard of the store, and the new water that was changed an hour ago can be used to take a bath to relieve fatigue." As soon as Luo Tianchu and the others heard the great joy, they prepared to go. Liu Shaoqing said: "Please bring a wooden barrel to my room, and I will wash it in the house." Xiao Er was puzzled and said: "Wash in the house?" Luo Tianchu knew that Liu Shaoqing didn't want to take a bath with others, so he said: "This is our young owner, and we can't share a bath with the owner as subordinates." Xiao Er suddenly said: "The little one understands, so let's go and prepare the barrel and hot water." Liu Shaoqing added: "In addition, prepare some fresh jasmine petals, milk, incense burners, incense to be good Long Yanxiang, and buy a few comfortable clothes, don't save me money." As he spoke, he took out five taels of silver and said, "Prepare all the things, and the rest of the money will be yours." The shopkeeper saw that the young owner had a bold move, and went happily.

Zhao Hengshan couldn't get used to it and said: "The stinky shelf is not small. He said it in a loud voice, but it was just enough for Liu Shaoqing to hear. Liu Shaoqing's sharp eyes immediately stared at him, and Zhao Hengshan also looked back at him, with a provocative look in his eyes. He saw that Liu Shaoqing had repelled Lin Lingsu earlier, and he was majestic on all sides, and his skills were unbearable, so he always wanted to fight Liu Shaoqing. Luo Tianchu saw that there was no one around, so he hit Zhao Hengshan with his elbow and said, "Do you remember what you promised before you came out? If you offend the owner of Liu Zhuang, he can let you go home at any time." Do you want to go back?" Zhao Hengshan shook his head and said, "I don't want to." Luo Tianchu said: "Then you should be disciplined, and then stir up trouble indiscriminately, you don't need to be talked, I will drive you away first." Zhao Hengshan had no choice but to say yes.

The bathhouse is called "Pear Blossom Bath", and the floor is covered with square blue bricks, and the walls of the pool are made of milky white marble, and the walls are made of white pine wood, which is evaporated by the heat and has a faint rosin fragrance. There are only four of them in the whole bathhouse, each of them has a corner, closes their eyes and recuperates, and the long-distance fatigue of the days is pumped out by the hot water, which is indescribably comfortable. After soaking for a while, Zhao Hengshan said with a smile: "It's really comfortable, although I can take a bath every day in Chang'an, it's not as comfortable as here." Li Xiaodao: "There are also a few good bathhouses in Chang'an, and the conditions are no worse than this one." Zhao Hengshan glanced at him and said, "What do you know, living comfortably in Chang'an, no matter how good the bathhouse is, there is no such pleasant feeling of taking a bath after a long journey." Castle Master, it's only us here, can you take off this damn mask, this heat is even more uncomfortable. Luo Tianchu shook his head and said, "Someone here will come at any time, let's get it after returning to the guest room." Zhao Hengshan complained: "The only thing that is not happy is this mask, which is hidden." Luo Tianchu said: "We are going to Longtan Tiger's Den, if we can't even stand this little crime, how can we do it." Zhao Hengshan said with a smile: "The Sprinkle family said casually, don't mind the castle owner." Luo Tianchu frowned and said, "What did you keep calling me just now?" Zhao Hengshan hurriedly changed his words: "Haha, I forgot to forget, it's Xiaolinzi." Luo Tianchu sighed secretly, thinking that he really didn't know whether it was right or wrong to bring Zhao Hengshan here. (To be continued.) )
