250 Main islands
"Who the hell are you?"
This was the inquiry that had been haunting Cheng Yitian's ears in the following days. Cheng Yitian was annoyed: "It's useful to tell you?"
"Yes!" Xue Zao was very sure, "As long as you tell me this, I will find a way for you to meet Bai Yingchu, the Black Winged Eagle King, without going to Tiandu." ”
"Really?"
The corners of Xue Zao's mouth were raised, smiling, and he looked like he was in his chest.
Cheng Yitian was overjoyed, immediately poured beans into the bamboo tube, and said everything he could say: "I said, I came from the Xi Dynasty, which is far away from here, and more than half a year ago, the Black Winged Eagle King Bai Yingchu went there. I only had a fight with him. ”
"You and the Black Winged Eagle King Bai Yingchu are doing it?" Xue Zao was extremely surprised. Looking up and down Cheng Yitian, he couldn't believe it: "It's too fake, it's too exaggerated." "Do you know how powerful the Black Wing Eagle King is?" After taking the Black Wind Thirty-six Cavalry to sweep the three barbarian Hunan Fire Divisions, his prestige was far away, and many people wanted to assassinate him, but they never succeeded. The year before last, at the Golden Port Wharf in New South Wales, two hundred catties of explosives did not kill him. More than two dozen killers were killed cleanly, and in the entire Penglai Continent, no one could be more powerful than him. But whenever the opponent mentions the name of 'Black Winged Eagle King' or 'Bai Yingchu', he is so frightened that he can't even eat well. ”
Cheng Yitian smiled coldly, without the slightest intention of justifying. Believe it or not, this attitude made Xue Zao have to mumble.
At night, they slept in the wilderness. Xue Zao found fallen leaves and velvet grass, and Cheng Yitian lived with fire knives and flints. Both have experience in surviving in the wild. Cheng Yi's innocence is gone, his fighting skills are still there, and there is no problem in fighting two pheasants. Pluck the hair at the water's edge and cut the abdomen, wash it, and plug it in. Xue Zao took it, put it on the fire, and roasted it until fragrant.
While eating roast chicken, Cheng Yitian said: "Bai Yingchu brought me from the Xi Dynasty, probably to ask me to compete again. If I lose, of course he's happy. But if he loses, I think, maybe, he'll kill me. ”
"If your original martial arts are indeed stronger than him, who can kill you on this Penglai Continent?"
"With Sikong Changlie and Chu Feng as the main formation, the Black Wind Sword Formation is not easy for me to deal with. As long as the Blackwing Eagle King personally presides over the sword array, I will definitely die. ”
"You said the Black Wind Sword Formation, the Black Wind Sword Formation with Sikong Changlie and Chu Feng as the formation masters, can you actually resist it?" Xue Zao's cognition was refreshed again, and after that, thinking about Cheng Yitian's words, he nodded: "That's right, no matter how strong you are, with the assistance of the Black Wind Sword Formation, you will definitely not be able to defeat the Black Wing Eagle King again." It's just-" Speaking of this, he couldn't help but be leisurely: "The Black Wind Sword Formation that he personally presided over...... The Black Wind Sword Formation where the Black Wing Eagle King served as the leader of the formation, I think about it, I know his name on Penglai Continent, and no one has seen it once in person at this time. ”
It cost 1,500 wen to get a boat. The boat was going to NSW. Tiandu, Longzhou, and Xinzhou are the three largest cities in Penglai. The first two are the territory of the Black Wing Eagle King, and they need to enter and exit official documents. Xinzhou belongs to the Crescent Moon Alliance, and after Chu Feng is the leader of the Canglong Society, the Crescent Alliance is the largest alliance independent of Tiandu. Blue Moon Bay in NSW is only a day's waterway away, so they set off in the morning and disembarked in the evening. Landing on land, Xue Zao smiled and said to Cheng Yitian: "Congratulations, you finally set foot on the land of Penglai Island." ”
With their backs to the sea and onshore, they walked through the jungle to the village settlement. Then he walked for a long time, and saw the mountains rise. Over the mountains and mountains, through several dangerous passes, on this day, the road ahead is smooth again, and the forest stretches. As I got closer, I saw patches of pine trees stretching out thick branches, thick needles stretched out like giant umbrellas. The bushes occupy another space at the right time, and their branches and foliage collude, making the road particularly difficult to walk. From time to time, some small animals scurried by, and there was even a fox, its movements were so fast, in the blink of an eye, the fiery red figure was gone.
Cheng Yitian was a little worried: "Will we encounter a big beast?"
Xue Zao said: "Your martial arts are so good, do you still need to be afraid of beasts?"
"I can't do it, I can only use simple martial arts. It's okay to hunt pheasants and hares, big beasts, I'm just afraid that there is nothing I can do. ”
Xue Zao was silent, lowered his head and pondered, and only asked after a while: "Brother Cheng, I want to ask you a question." ”
"You say. ”
"You have been hit by the bone acupuncture, and the meridians are like breaking, and it is difficult for the true power to run. However, can you pass on your martial arts and fighting skills to me?"
When Cheng Yitian heard this, he subconsciously looked at him.
Xue Zao immediately laughed: "I'm just assuming that." Walking forward, he smiled and said seriously: "You want to see the Black Wing Eagle King Bai Yingchu, just because you are like this, I think it will never work." You want to reach your goal, and after you reach your goal, you can make your next important request, and the only way is for you to attract Bai Yingchu from Tiandu City. ”
"Train you to be a master and use it to replace the original me?" Cheng Yitian understood.
Xue Zao clapped his palms and raised a finger: "Speaking of the point." ”
Cheng Yitian sneered: "Impossible." ”
"Why?"
"I've been practicing Kung Fu since I was a child. Up to now, exactly fifteen years. ”
"Then I'll work three times as hard as you do, practice hard, shorten these fifteen years, and reach the goal we need to achieve together. ”
"I have received guidance from many masters, especially two of them, who have done their best to pull the true power that I have cultivated personally to cross my ascension, regardless of the cost. Among the people who prompted my martial arts to advance by leaps and bounds, there was one like me, a pure Xi Dynasty person, who said that you don't know. There is another one, you know very well. ”
"Who?"
"The surname is Bai, and the name is Yingchu. ”
"Bai, Ying, Chu - Bai Ying Chu?"
Cheng Yitian nodded, laughed out loud, and walked forward. Xue Zao caught up and said angrily: "You deliberately perfunctory me again." How could the Eagle King cross you, he obviously wants to defeat you?"
"I'm right. ”
"Impossible, just impossible!"
"Really, I don't lie to you. ”
"I just don't believe it. ”
............
It was easy to get out of this forest, and seeing the smoke curling in front of him, Xue Zao sat down on a big rock on the side of the road. Cheng Yitian was puzzled and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I don't want to go!" Xue Zao's voice was muffled, and his tone was also very bad.
Cheng Yitian said solemnly: "You don't really want to learn art from me before you let me leave Bauhinia?" His eyes rolled twice, and he stood up straight, "Xue Zao, I arrived at Qichang Mansion alone." Being able to find a job in Qichang Mansion that day gave me a way to live, and here today, I can also live with all my strength. ”
"It's too late. Xue Zao raised his face and smiled grimly.
Cheng Yitian was taken aback, and hurriedly condensed and looked around. Where the smoke curls, there is a faint shaky black shadow. And beneath his feet, the earth trembled slightly. The trembling sensation soon became intense, and the black shadow expanded, turning out to be a team of centaurs. A leader-like man rode a horse to the front, shouting, "Is Xue Zao back? He saw Xue Zao when he grew up, and he glanced at it and saw it down, and he was sure that this was "Xue Zao". The middle-aged man "brushed" and pulled out a long scimitar, and in a flash, the knife slashed towards Xue Zao. Xue Zao fell on the spot and kowtowed to him on the ground: "Han Gong spares his life, I have important people to bring back, and I have important news to tell you, please listen to me." ”
Manxiang fire, located in the southeast of Xinzhou and northwest of Longzhou, surrounded by mountains, creates a very special geographical environment for them. Before Tiandu invaded here, Liu Jingkong of the Canglong Society and Liang Fan of the Crescent Moon Alliance had the intention to subdue the three. However, due to geographical geographical limitations, Langshan, Wushan, and Jishan are blocked, and several important passes are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the army cannot enter, fighting alone, and the weapons of the barbarian warriors and the fire department are amazingly powerful.
The fire department is at the foot of Jishan Mountain, on a wide flat dam near the river, and tens of thousands of people gather. Scattered around the edge are villages, and the center of Pingba is occupied by market towns. The scale of the market town is not small, and the city wall alone adds up to 20 miles from east, west, north and south. The city wall is very high, and when the minister Han Tiexiong escorted Cheng Yitian and Xue Zao into the city, Cheng Yitian could see the iron tools on the battlements from time to time.
Both were taken to the prison of the Forbidden City Guards.
Xue Zao was pushed to the ground, got up by himself, pounced on the door, and said to the jailer: "You tell Han Gong that I really have something important, and it has something to do with Tiandu and the Black Wing Eagle King. Listening to me, he will surely gain a lot and benefit a lot - alas, alas!"
Cheng Yitian sat on the ground with his back against the wall. It was cold on the ground, and among the scattered blackened straw, a few bed bugs crawled out and back.
Xue Zao kicked hard, kicking away the few straws in front of him.
Facing each other, they were silent for a while. Cheng Yitian didn't expect that he and this kid had only known each other for half a year, and he had been calculated by him twice.
"What the hell do you want to do?" he asked Xue Zao.
Xue Zao said: "I don't want to wander outside anymore. I'm going home, Temper Ministry. With his back against the other wall, he also sat on the ground, clasping his knees with his hands, and after a while, he let out a long sigh before he continued: "Do you know how much I miss this place where I grew up with my sister? I can't stay in the Fire Department, Langshan, Wushan, Jishan, I can't stay anywhere. At that time, the Canglong Society was still there, and Liu Jingkong never interfered in foreign affairs, unless there was something beneficial. And I, how can I give him benefits? When you go to Tiandu, Tiandu has long been routinely entered by official documents, and it is difficult to cross the border to climb to the sky. I just went to Bauhinia Island. ”
"When I was a child, my father was the first of the three ministers, assisting Lord Fenglan City in managing all the affairs of the clan. My mother died early, my father was very busy, and my sister took care of me. Since I was a child, she cooked for me, bathed me, and washed my clothes. When I grew up, I followed her to fish and catch pheasants. When it snows heavily, sweep away a thick piece of white snow, put a bamboo sieve, and sprinkle the grain underneath. The pheasant was so hungry and greedy that it got underneath and pulled the short stick, and the pheasant was detained......"
As he spoke, Xue Zao laughed. When I laughed, my eyes were full of tears, and my eyes couldn't hold back, and tears flowed down one by one.
Cheng Yitian was moved, sighed, and said to him: "If you want to learn martial arts from me, or let me teach the martial arts of the Fire Ministry, this road will not work." ”
"Why doesn't it work?" Xue Zao suddenly crawled over, his face held high, and almost reached Cheng Yitian's face: "Don't you know the origin of the thirty-six horsemen of the Black Wind? After Bai Yingchu won the position of the lord of the Tiandu City, he collected talents and trained for three years, and thirty-six martial arts masters were born. ”
"Are you sure it only took him three years?"
"Everyone in Penglai knows it. ”
"Bai Guhong takes people out, every time, Bai Yingchu will secretly follow, isn't Bai Guhong not aware of it once?"
Xue Zao choked.
Cheng Yitian said: "There is no shortcut to martial arts. Even if there is a good teacher, no one can replace the time to practice. "But think about the skills of Sikong Changlie, Chu Feng and the others, every piece of kung fu comes from the same path as the Black Wing Eagle King. Those people's kung fu are all taught by Bai Yingchu, and there will be no fake.
Xue Zao was pitiful: "Just pass on one or two things, so that I and the people of the Fire Department are better than now, and it's okay." ”
Cheng Yitian thought about it, his heart softened, and his will began to loosen.
Three days later, Han Tiexiong personally interrogated Xue Zao, and Xue Zao told Han Tiexiong alone about his intention to bring a stranger back. He said: "I just want to go back to the Fire Department, so that the men of the Fire Department can learn martial arts well, and at least be able to occupy the leader position in the three departments, which can be regarded as making up for it." ”
"The whole Tiandu, the whole Tiandu is almost my Han family!" Han Tiexiong thought of the old things, but he still couldn't suppress it, and wanted to tear the remnants of the Xue family in front of him to pieces.
Xue Zao knelt on the ground and wept bitterly: "It was my sister who was fascinated by Bai Yingchu's appearance for a while, and did something stupid to betray the clan. It was my Xue family that died of death, and none of the expelled people could stay on the island. I wandered on Bauhinia Island for seven years, seven years, and I was unbearably lonely, and I suffered even more hardships on weekdays. Han Gong, the heavenly capital has been owned by Bai Yingchu. Canglong will be taken over by Chu Feng, and even the evil lady in the main room of the first city lord will be imprisoned in Tianheng Peak for life. Let me have a chance to make amends, okay?"
"So," Han Tiexiong looked down at him, "You really picked up a martial arts master from Bauhinia Island who is enough to compete with Bai Yingchu?"
"There is a kind of demonic thing called 'bone needle' in his own body, and his martial arts are equal to being wasted. However, he knew exactly how to practice those martial arts. ”
"If we can also train a master army like the Tiandu Iron Cavalry Guard, then, the hatred that was trampled under the feet of Bai Yingchu-"
"You can report it!"
Han Tiexiong's face was slanted, and Xue Zao immediately put on a flattering smile.
