The breeze grassland Baiyun Mountain, the horses and sheep are herded and the cattle sleep; if there are no wolves to scatter the wild, the idle herding is enviable.

A shepherd is lying on the green pasture, the horses are grazing leisurely nearby, the sheep are scattered on the pasture, gnawing on the fat blades of grass, a white cloud in the sky rests on his head, the shepherd is humming something, he is almost asleep by the warm sun. Faintly, as if there was some movement, he sat up, there was a vague figure in the distant sky, he lay down again, that person was probably more than twenty miles away, he could not hear the sound of horses' hooves, indicating that he was a walking person, even if he walked here, it would take half a day, and it was not necessarily in this direction.

But, after all, there were few people outside, and the shepherd was curious about a lonely traveler walking on the steppe, and he sat up again, but the man was still only a shadow; he plucked a long grass, and bit it in his mouth, and squinted, but he could not see it; he lay down again, and the white cloud above his head was like a horse, a sheep, and a lion, and he had never seen a lion, and he imagined that the lion was like this. However, what he really wanted to know was the appearance of that person, the changes of Baiyun, he had seen a lot, but not many people. He was anxious to see the man, and when he had such an idea, he felt that time was difficult, originally he was lying alone on the grassland, looking at the white clouds in the sky, with the change of the white clouds, imagining the days of the gods in the sky, listening to the rustle of sheep grazing on the grass, quite pleasant; now, a traveler who had never met before, dozens of miles away, was just a shadow, but his heart had been disturbed. He tried to think of the strangers he had seen, where this person would have overlapped with those strangers, the same eyes, the same nose, or the same face, the same scars on his face. He stood up, stood on tiptoe and looked, the man was just a shadow in the sun, this shadow was just a shallow black spot on the grassland, he was sweating on his head in a hurry, he still couldn't wait for the person, he seemed to feel that ten thousand years had passed, the man was just in the distance, as if he hadn't taken a step closer. A lamb grazing and eating beside him, his nose rubbing on his body, he pushed the lamb away, the lamb didn't know how he bothered him, and walked to the side with interest. He felt that the person was deliberately not walking well, and knew that he was waiting here, but walked slowly, deliberately making him anxious. He has been herding sheep on the grassland for several years, and he has adapted to the slow rhythm of the grassland. He himself thought it was funny, how could that man know that there was someone waiting for him in the depths of the steppe?

He picked up a stone and threw it, and a sheep that was drifting away was frightened by the stone, looked back at him, and obediently turned its head. The stones in his hands kept being thrown, and several mischievous sheep turned back. The two dogs ran over, with yellow hair and black backs, each with a rabbit in their mouths, and came to his side flatteringly, waiting for his praise, he stroked the dog's head, and the two dogs saw that he was very happy, and did not know what was wrong with him, sniffed the air, and barked wildly into the distance. The sheep did not know what was happening, and they were a little panicked and cried to gather together. He stopped the barking of the dogs, and the distant man finally appeared in the sky, walking as fast as he had imagined. His heart tightened, and deep down he felt that the arrival of this person would seriously affect his future days, and his peaceful life of herding sheep would be broken. He was a little excited, a little panicked, and a little sad.

The man's figure was getting taller and taller, his broad body, his long legs, one step out, two steps away, the upper body was still not moving, still steady, although there was still a long way to go, he seemed to see the smile on the man's face, and the man's eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky. The man kept walking in his direction, with a big smile on his face and eyes as bright as stars. The shepherd could not see the man's other expression, but only his smile when he came home, and his eyes as bright as stars. The two of them hugged each other like old friends and family, and they smiled, just laughing, as if they could fully express their deep affection for each other.

At last they sat down, and the shepherd opened a small sheepskin bag, and the strong smell of wine spread through the air, and the shepherd took a sip and handed it to the man, who took the bag, took a sip, and handed it to the shepherd, and the two did not speak, but drank the wine one by one. The man seemed to have great trust in the thin shepherd, who was thin and had just developed, with empty eyes and a little pale face.

In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves came from the direction from which the man came, the dog's ears pricked up in alarm, the sheep were in a little commotion, and the horses stopped grazing and looked into the distance. The shepherd said, "Three horses." His voice was a little stiff, as if he wasn't very good at talking.

The man looked at him in amazement, but he didn't expect that this little shepherd, who looked like a shepherd in the depths of the prairie and had never seen anything of the world, could be so far away, just by listening, he could hear that three horses were chasing him! Three horses. Chase me. "There was no panic at all.

The shepherd said, "A horse." The man knew that the shepherd meant that he had a horse that he could ride on, and he looked at the horse, and it was not outstanding, but the shepherd's appearance was not very outstanding, but it gave people an unusual feeling, and the horse was probably like his master. The man shook his head, not wanting to ask for the shepherd's horse, but got up and walked away. He was so tired that he wished he could have a horse to ride in his place, but he did not want to receive the favor of a man, a stranger. Of course, if possible he would rather steal the shepherd's horse. It's just that he didn't do it at first, but now that he has drunk the shepherd's wine and gone to steal people's horses, he is a little embarrassed and strides away. How does the shepherd know the ravines in his heart? The shepherd looked at his back, the fur on his body was worn, and in some places it had been blown up, revealing the animal hair inside, but it could be seen that the fur fur was very exquisitely made, the shepherd had seen his master have a similar fur fur, but the master did not often wear it, only when he went to see the elders of the clan, or when there was something important, he only wore it once or twice; the belt around his waist was very delicate, and it was made of jade and gold wire; the leather trousers on his legs were of suede, and the lower half was already wisps; the calfskin boots on his feet, showing his heels, as soon as he walked"Click, click". Apparently this man had come a long way, and still had a long way to go, and when the shepherd looked at him, the man had gone away so quickly, and the shepherd thought that he had seen a ghost!

After waiting for half an hour, three horses appeared in view, getting closer and closer, and immediately three knights, they were a little slow and careless. Three horses approached, the knight's face was in the shadow under his fur hat, one had a long scar on his face, one had a full beard and could not see his face, and one had a yellow face and was thin, as if he was sick. The Scarface jumped off his horse, threw the reins, and walked to the shepherd, who raised his eyelids as if he had just fallen asleep and was woken up. Scarface said, "Shepherd's brother, a big man walked by, did you see it?"

The shepherd sat up and looked at several people, they had more dirt on them than the man, the shepherd shook his head, nodded again, and said with a smile: "This shepherd seems to be a little silly. Don't know what you're saying. ”

The shepherd glared at him, "Fuck, fuck! "Scarface daxiao," he just farts a lot, but I don't know if it's a dog. ”

The bearded man jumped off the horse and ran to the shepherd, the whip in his hand was swung out, and there was an explosion, and then the wind flung at the shepherd, the shepherd did not move, Scarface raised his hand and grabbed the whip, and scolded: "What the hell are you doing? How many times have you said it, don't be in a hurry when you come out!"

The bearded man seemed to be a little afraid of him, put away his whip, and stood aside scolding. The patient-like man dismounted and said with a smile: "This brother seems to have a big temper. It's no wonder that when you are alone here, you are lonely and have no companions, and your temper is naturally bullish. ”

Scarface looked at the shepherd with suspicion in his eyes, and he suddenly said, "There!" The shepherd looked in the direction of the big man in surprise, he found that he had been fooled, there was no one in the empty grassland at all, he glared at Scarface with some annoyance, and Scarface smiled: "Brother, you know what that man does, you help him?" He killed many people and robbed a lot of shepherds' things. We are the ones who specialize in hunting down these vicious wolves of the steppe. ”

The shepherd still glared at him, not believing that the man would rob the shepherd, and that it was possible to kill someone, and that some people were not even as good as wolves, so they should be killed. That person can't be a bad wolf, he often sees a bad wolf, what kind of virtue a bad wolf is, he knows more than a person. These people are not evil wolves, but they are going to arrest a good person? This shepherd has not seen anyone for many years, so he does not know how to deal with people, but he just takes it for granted that the first person he sees is a good person, so the person who opposes the "good person" or is not good to that person is naturally a bad person.

The yellow-faced man didn't speak, just looked in the direction where the man had disappeared and sniffed like a dog, and the shepherd looked at him strangely, not knowing what he was doing. After a while, the yellow-faced man said, "He was here an hour ago. He won't go far, he can't overtake us on horseback. ”

The shepherd admired his nose greatly, and his dog was not necessarily better than him, and the dog could not speak, could not speak in such detail.

A few people got back on their horses, still slowly chasing in the direction of the big man. The shepherd thought for a moment, summoned the two dogs, said something to the dogs, and then jumped on his horse himself, and followed the three, and the men did not care about him, and walked and sniffed with yellow faces, and they walked for more than an hour, and the shepherd thought to himself, "You are so slow, the man has long since gone away!"

Scarface suddenly shouted "Good man!" The shepherd thought that there was something wrong with this man, and he went to hunt some kind of grass indiscriminately. But to his surprise, a man suddenly jumped up in the grass, and it was the big man.

The shepherd could not see how the man was lying on the grass without anyone else seeing, and the men were also miraculous, and they could see that there was no one out of the ordinary. He didn't know that the big man knew that he was embellished by the other party, so it was difficult to get rid of it, and he was also stared at by the other party to death. In a hurry, I found a place to hide for a while, to see if I could deceive the other party, but this place was dense with pasture, and I got into it. I didn't expect that the other party was not a fuel-efficient lamp, especially the yellow-faced sick man, who actually had an unusual nose, who walked in front of him, an hour later, he could still smell it, and easily found the place where the big man was hiding. The shepherd was speechless, and what was even more astonishing was still to come, for the man had a sword in his hand, and ten thousand stars covered the scarface, and Scarface did not see that he had taken out two rings from somewhere, and the sword pierced into it with a sound of gold and iron.

The two men shot as if fighting for their lives, and the man's sword opened and closed widely, and the opening seemed to be full of loopholes and flaws everywhere. Scarface does not show weakness, the two iron rings are sometimes separated, sometimes held in one hand, and when separated, they are vigorously pushed out, like a mountain and a sea, and when they are closed, they are like a yak pulling a strong force. The most strange thing is that the two iron rings collided and made a sound like a dragon roaring and a tiger, which shook the hearts of the herdsmen outside the battle circle, and their heads were dizzy and tinnitus, and you can imagine the feeling of the big man in the circle.

The big man's swordsmanship is extraordinary, the scar-faced man can only resist the strange weapon of the two iron rings, the horse whip in the bearded man's hand suddenly strikes, the spirit snake stabs the big man's throat, the big man bows his head to dodge, his whip is more than two zhang long, it seems that it is not only a horse whip, but also his weapon. His whip is still secondary, the most important thing is that this person recognizes the acupoints, and his whip attacks are all big holes on the big man's body, and when the big man fights with Scarface, he also has to pay attention to a snake that may bite his big hole at any time, I am afraid that it is more terrible than most snakes in the world, and the interference of the big man is difficult to estimate. The big man was able to cope with Yuru at first, and after five or seven moves, he saw the whip attack on the chest, took a step back, and wanted to avoid it, but the calculation was a little worse, and the iron ring of Scarface was pushed, and the big man stumbled under his feet. The shepherd got angry, and the stone in his hand flew out, and always when the whip was about to reach the big man, he touched the whip, and the head of the whip was gone. At first, the bearded man thought that the shepherd was just fooling around, and that the stone had happened to hit the whip, but he didn't expect that his stone would happen to hit the whip every time, so it would be hell. The bearded man turned to the shepherd, and the whip in his hand twisted and wound like a long snake, striking, smashing, stabbing, and pointing at the shepherd. The big man shouted, "Don't hurt people indiscriminately!"

The yellow-faced sick man smiled: "Of course it's just at you!" In his left hand, he stabbed the big man with a weighing rod-like thing, and smashed it at the big man with a weighing hammer in his right hand. The big man is one against two, without fear, the long sword in his hand attacks more and defends less, and the sword waves roll towards the other party.

The stone in the shepherd's hand kept smashing at the bearded man, and the bearded whip could not resist it, and he was hit by the stone, and he screamed when he hit it. This thing is a thing to drop a thing, the bearded man's long whip is a long whip for the big man's sword is without a trace, far beyond the opponent's possible attack, called "an inch long and an inch strong", and specifically hit the big hole on the body, the big man can't prevent it; The other party's stone seemed to have eyes, and it always attacked through the cracks of the whip, and he had nothing to do to hit him.

The stones in the shepherd's hand didn't seem to count, he moved his left and right hands together, the stones flew towards Scarface and the sick man, a few stones flew out, and the two immediately got up in a hurry. The big man was also strange, he did not kill the other party when the situation was advantageous, but gradually got out of the circle, watching the shepherd deal with the three masters with small stones, and saw the three of them retreat step by step under the raindrop-like flying stone attack, until they retreated to a place where the stone could not hit, and then stopped, at this time several people were already out of breath, and they didn't know how many hits on their bodies. Several people looked at the shepherd, not knowing how he practiced such a flying stone stunt, but although his flying stone was extremely accurate, it seemed that his strength was insufficient, and it was difficult to hurt people. The three of them retreated step by step, but they felt that it was really ugly to be hit by a stone, so they didn't attack him. If he is hit by a stone in his body, and rushes forward, as long as he attacks in front of him, he will definitely die.

The big man approached the shepherd and said with a smile: "Brother, good skills! The shepherd was astonished, although he was only grazing in this uninhabited place, and the people in the world were a little ignorant, but he still knew that this place was the territory of the king of the right valley, and he was also the slave of the shepherd in the tribe of the king of the right valley. Today, he was indignant, but he didn't expect to provoke the prince's subordinates, and he was a little uneasy.

The scar-faced warrior is called Lone Eagle, and he is the leader of the guards of the Right Valley Liking, and was stabbed in the face by an assassin when he was protecting the Right Valley Liking, but at the critical moment, his long knife has already been a little bit ahead of the opponent's head and slashed on the top of the opponent's head, so that he can survive the disaster and escape after a catastrophe. After that distress escape, he should practice double iron rings, the right valley Li Wang invited a master to teach, and he was practiced into a peerless kung fu; the sick man is a Han man, called Zheng Wuji, he is not a real sick man, but he has been sick since he was a child, but his family is a merchant who does business, his parents saw that he was weak and sick, and asked someone to teach him the method of cultivating longevity and health, the master saw that he followed his parents all day long to fiddle with the scale rod, his heart moved, the scale hammer, The weighing rod has been his weapon, the weighing hammer has the technique of a meteor, but the weighing rod is the number of short swords, and he has become a famous master in the rivers and lakes; The shepherd's horse is always fatter and stronger than the sheep of his companions, and the master secretly wonders, and quietly observes, and sees that he is always running, and the whip in his hand is constantly swinging, and drives the cattle to a place where the water and grass are abundant, and when the animals are full and want to lie down, he rushes up and does not let the animals lie down; When the master saw that he had made the whip very powerful, he asked someone to make this long whip and let him use it, and he got the long whip, and he was overjoyed, and used it every day, and met a Han man who was wounded and left in the grassland, and he left the Han man in his tent, and treated the Han people to eat and drink. The Han people saw that he was simple, and saw that he made a good whip, but there was no way, and instructed him to beat people with a whip, but unfortunately, the Han people died suddenly a few days later, and he only learned some fur. But even so, he already had few opponents on the grassland.

Zheng Wuji and Di Xiang are both masters invited by the King of Liwang in the right valley, it turned out that the Han envoy Zhang Qian went to the prairie and was robbed by Shan Yu, but Zhang Qian's subordinates were all some heroes of the rivers and lakes, and they wanted to rescue Zhang Qian several times, making many Hun warriors on the grassland helpless. Shan Yu's prince Wu Dan thought of using the masters of the rivers and lakes to deal with the heroes of the rivers and lakes, so he wantonly recruited the masters of various countries, and the other princes on the grassland saw it, knowing that Wu Dan had ill intentions, and in order to prevent it, they also recruited masters to protect them by their side. The big man captured by Lone Eagle and others was also a Han master, called Wei Changfeng, who somehow got to the grassland, broke into the shepherd's tent to eat and drink, and the herdsman beat him, but was injured by him. It happened that the lone eagle and the two of them were passing by, and when they heard about it, they wanted to catch him and eliminate the harm for the shepherd. Who knew that several fights, he escaped, Zheng Wuji and Di Xiang were going to make a killer, kill him, but this lone eagle moved the idea of cherishing talents, and wanted to recruit this master for the king of Yougu Li, to help the prince achieve great things, so he repeatedly escaped.

How did the shepherd know about these twists and turns? He looked at Wei Changfeng suspiciously, not believing that he was a bad person. Wei Changfeng said to him: "Brother, I'm really not a bad person! I'm just hungry and looking for something to eat." My name is Wei Changfeng, brother, what's your name?"

The shepherd cried out, "My name is Cheng Yi. ”

Wei Changfeng said happily: "You are Han?"

Cheng Yi nodded. "Me too. So you see, we are all Han people, how can Han people have bad people?" Cheng Yi nodded again, and then shook his head.

Zheng Wuji said with a smile: "There are also bad people among the Han people. He is. Don't fall for him. ”

Lone Eagle said: "Old Guard, we have no ill intentions. Just ask you to meet the prince, if you want to stay, stay, if you don't, you will leave. Why do you want to see the outside like this?"

Wei Changfeng said with a smile: "You don't have to say more! I don't see any prince." I'm a vulgar savage, when I see the prince, don't scare the prince. Don't waste your efforts. ”

The lone eagle said to Cheng Yi: "Brother Cheng, the prince is looking for a master, giving him a lot of gold and silver, herds of cattle and sheep, and young women. Come with us. ”

Cheng Yi swallowed his saliva, he had never seen gold and silver, but he had seen a few women, the master's wife, an old woman, was always chattering about something, the master always beat her, the master's two daughters were always bullying him, he didn't think women were good. Herds of cattle and sheep, he herds sheep for his master every day, and then gives him herds of cattle and sheep, how can he let them go. He shook his head.

Wei Changfeng daxiao: "Don't waste your tongue! We are accustomed to being at ease, and we don't want to be restrained by others." Go away, or let you taste the stones. ”

The lone eagle knew that it was difficult to impress the other party, he didn't understand that there were such people in Weishenme, and he would rather wander like a wild dog, looking hard for food everywhere, rather than follow the prince and adults at ease. He sighed and said, "Let you go today, and don't let me see you in the future." Let's go. The three of them mounted their horses and turned away.

Wei Changfeng let out a long breath, he was exhausted from being chased by the three of them in the past few days, but he didn't expect this to be the result. He asked Cheng Yi: "You are here, where are your sheep?"

Cheng Yi panicked, hurriedly rushed back, Wei Changfeng followed behind his horse, he could go hand in hand, ran for most of the hour, came to the place where Cheng Yi herded sheep, only to see a strong woman driving the sheep, cursing in her mouth, seeing Cheng Yi come back, she was even more angry, the leather whip in her hand was beaten on her head and face, Cheng Yi jumped off the horse, let her whip, there was no trace of resistance, obviously afraid of the other party's obscenity for a long time, I don't know how to resist. Wei Changfeng was indignant in his heart, stepped forward and snatched the woman's leather whip and hit her, only twice, and the woman was already screaming. Wei Changfeng was excited, his hand was empty, and the leather whip was snatched away, but at a glance, it was Cheng Yi. He looked at Cheng Yi strangely, thinking that he wanted to take revenge on himself, but he saw Cheng Yi throw down the leather whip, and the whip marks on his face were still painful. He lowered his eyebrows and said, "Master, I won't dare in the future." Please forgive the host. ”

The woman looked at the tall Wei Changfeng in fear, not knowing what their relationship was, seeing Cheng Yi admit his mistake, her heart was happy, and said: "If I hadn't come, the lambs would have been eaten by the evil wolf! How could you leave the flock and play by yourself? If it was a man, I would have broken your legs a long time ago!"

Wei Changfeng saw Cheng Yi trembling obviously, he didn't expect it to be like this, this kid is not afraid of heroes in the rivers and lakes, but afraid of evil lords, and he just refused the invitation of the prince. Wei Changfeng originally felt that he was already a very extraordinary person, and this shepherd was even more extraordinary than him.

He asked Cheng Yi: "What are you going to do?" Do you stay and continue to herd the sheep, or follow me, and we will wander on the grassland together?" Cheng Yi was very interested in his suggestion, he had heard several wandering singers singing on the grassland, and their songs had all kinds of heroes and stories, and he had imagined countless times that he was like the heroes, helping the weak on the grassland and fighting the jackals. But, thinking about it, he didn't know how he would be able to eat enough after leaving his master. His heart was struggling. The hostess cried, "Don't listen to the madman's madness! If you run out, you will be eaten by jackals, and you will starve to death! You will be taken away by an eagle!" she chattered, Cheng Yi's face changed and changed, he was really annoyed that the hostess kept spitting and preaching, she could talk all day long, even if there was no one around, just to the sheep and the dogs. Looking at the hostess's rapidly opening and closing lips, red lips, and yellow teeth, Cheng Yi felt a great fear, and this fear had surpassed the fear of wandering on the grassland and being beaten by the wind and rain! He shouted and ran away, and Wei Changfeng ran behind him. The hostess did not expect the child to run away with an outsider whom she had just met, and she yelled in a rage, but her shepherd boy and the big pesky man could no longer hear her cries, and they had disappeared from her sight as if they had never appeared. Of course, she doesn't have Zheng Wuji's skills, and she can sniff out their tracks like a dog.

This is exactly what it is: pouring the lid is like an old friend, and it is only a word to trust each other with one; it is ridiculous to travel all over the world, chattering and making it difficult to make friends.
