C1107C1048 For troubled times! (3)

Chapter 1107 Chapter [-] is for troubled times! (three)

A horrific howl rips through the nighttime woods.

The old bird was startled.

On the dark road, the war horses were restlessly stirring and galloping.Xu Dong's right hand was broken, and the palm holding the knife was broken in two after a moment of pain, and blood gushed out. He staggered and ran, and was cut on the thigh with a knife, rolled out, and hit a tree.

Shura with a knife was walking towards him.

This was the first time in his life that he had encountered such a brutal fight, and his whole brain hadn't reacted at all. He didn't even know how the companions who accompanied him died, but it was just one or two breaths. The man in front of him is like Shura in hell, and the splashes in his steps are like karmic fire that burns everything.

His master back then had never taught him such a thing, and he didn't even know who the person in front of him was, so it was impossible for him to offend such a person.The disappearance of the palm made him feel like a hallucination. There was still a big knife behind him, and the flying knife on his chest hadn't moved at all, but he didn't dare to touch it at all. It's all a little unclear, but the figure of Shura holding the knife is extremely stable, and he has come close.

"Yingyingyingying, hero... I made a mistake, I made a mistake—"

He waved his intact left hand: "I, I, we have no grievances! Hero, I made a mistake..."

Xu Dong couldn't recognize this tall figure with a huge and destructive oppression, but the other party stopped, slowly raised his left hand, pointed to his eyes with two fingers, then turned around and slowly Pointing to Xu Dong.

Xu Dong was taken aback for a moment, he could recognize that it was his usual threatening gesture, which meant "I remember you".When did I mess around with this kind of people?

"Yingyingying... Hero, I didn't... I was wrong... That's not me..."

His mouth was full of spittle, tears also fell out, a little blurred his vision.However, the figure finally got closer, and a little starlight passed through the gaps in the trees, faintly illuminating a young man's face: "After you bullied that girl, I carried her out, you said you remembered us?" , I thought it was very interesting."

The boy's eyes were indifferent: "You really deserve a few more knives."

Xu Dong opened his mouth several times. At this moment, he really couldn't connect the unremarkable boy among the group of scholars with this terrifying figure.

"I...I...I don't know...I...ah..."

The shadow of the knife rose.

"...I have a hostage!"

A certain thought came back to his mind, Xu Dong raised his hand and yelled loudly.

The young man held the knife in his hand for a moment, and after a long time, he slightly tilted his head: "... huh?"

Xu Dong spoke and explained in a hoarse voice, hastily, and stated to the other party what happened before, saying Lu Wenke's name, and the expression on the boy's face changed.Xu Dong cried and begged: "Hero... stay Liu Liu... save my life, I can change him, I can change him..."

The boy raised his head and thought for a while.

……

"...what can I change?"

……

The killing intent bloomed in the forest, and then blood and darkness enveloped everything.

**************

Even in the most anxious night, the fair time still goes unhurriedly.

The people in Wubao of the Li family spent this long night while planning their next response.In the morning of the next day, Yan Tiehe, Yan Yunzhi and others also woke up, and began to eat in the main hall under the hospitality of Li Ruoyao. Outside Zhuangzi, someone who reported the news rushed in hastily.

One night last night, the farmers in Lijiawu Fort were waiting in full battle, but the murderer who killed Shi Shuifang did not come to make trouble, but outside Lijiawu Fort, the bad things did not stop.

Under the command of the manager of the village, people beat the emergency gong, followed by the rapid assembly and formation of the village households.After a while, the cavalry, vehicles and a large number of farmers left the gate of Li's house in a mighty manner. They passed the market below, and then turned to the direction of Tongshan County.Yan Tiehe, Yan Yunzhi and others also followed in the convoy, and they stopped at a road passing through the forest not far away.

The farmers dispersed in groups and blocked off the area, while Li Ruoyao and others walked in.

It was the scene of a brutal killing.

Five yamen servants died, one of them was particularly tall and tall, and he looked quite brave. His neck was cut open, and his death was also grim, with deep fear still in his eyes.Li Ruoyao introduced to Yan Tiehe: "This is the family's niece-in-law Xu Dong, who is now the chief arrester of Tongshan County...has been on the battlefield..."

The five yamen servants were all fully armed and wore thick leather armor. Everyone looked at the scene, Yan Tiehe was horrified, and Yan Yunzhi was also terrified, saying: "This is different from the fight yesterday evening..."

"All five of them are wearing armor, and there are fishing nets and lime on the ground." Yan Tie said peacefully, "What makes my niece and son-in-law think is to swarm up and defeat the enemy in an instant, but... the ability of that person yesterday is far beyond their imagination. Face to face, each other's kung fu is probably the strongest kung fu in this life... The three yamen servants all fell to the ground with one blow, the throat, abdomen, and face, even though they were wearing leather armor, the other party only made one move... ...This shows that yesterday he fought against Shi Shuifang...Shi Daxia at the foot of the mountain.

"This kind of martial arts can't be practiced at home with the door closed." Yan Tiehe paused, "I heard last night that he is from the southwest, but the southwest...wouldn't let the child go to the battlefield..."

During the interrogation of Lu Wenke last night, although Yan Tie and Yan Yunzhi were not present, they had a rough idea of ​​the outline of the situation. What he said with some hesitation at this time was exactly what everyone was suspicious of and didn't even dare to say more.

Leaning on crutches, Li Ruoyao occupied the spot for a while, and then opened his bloodshot eyes, and said more things to Yan Tiehe: "The tragedy that happened last night is more than just the fight here..."

"what……"

"Last night, the murder of my nephew, son-in-law and several yamen servants was still in the first half of the night, and in the second half of the night, the murderer sneaked into Tongshan County..."

"Didn't Tongshan County have a curfew..." Yan Yunzhi said.

"Jiangbei is at war, and most of the available soldiers have been dispatched by General Liu. To defend the entire city, how can there be so many people... The murderer went all the way to Tongshan County after killing people here. My niece's house. My niece... was killed in the early morning..."

At this point in his words, everyone was speechless, only the benevolent monk put his hands together, said "Amitabha", and then chanted sutras, as if he was saving the dead.

The old man scanned all this with his eyes.

"...Is there still a king's law!?" His crutches trembled on the ground, "Use force to restrain! Lawless! Relying on your own ability, you will kill people indiscriminately! This kind of person is not tolerated in the world! I, Li Jiarong Don’t allow this kind of person! Summon Zhuang Zhongerlang and nearby Xiangyong, and release him to me. I will find him out and give everyone justice!”

He roared loudly, his words were deafening, everyone around gathered and agreed in unison, and Yan Tiehe also came over and said a few words of comfort.

On the trip to Jiangning, I didn't expect to experience such a tragedy here, but even if I saw something, the scheduled itinerary would certainly not be disrupted.At the same time that Lijiazhuang began to mobilize the surrounding forces, Li Ruoyao also repeatedly accused Yan Tiehe and others of the poor hospitality. When the Yan family came here, the most important issue of jointly opening business routes was naturally out of place for a while. Yes, but the rest of the goals have been achieved. After lunch that day, they also gathered their hands and prepared to leave.

For the Li family, what is happening now is complicated. The most complicated point is that the other party is involved in the "Southwest" issue.Naturally, Li Ruoyao was not good at keeping everyone in the Yan family, so he just prepared presents to send them off, and told them to pay attention to the murderer, and the Yan family naturally expressed that they would not slack off.

"The Li family has kept many things from us."

There are some things that cannot be said in detail in the Li family's house, Yan Yunzhi only talked about these thoughts with his second uncle after the team of horses and horses left there.

"Of course it's impossible to be honest one by one." Yan Tiehe rode a horse and walked beside his niece's carriage, "For example, the reason why this happened is that Xu Dong, who is always obsessed with catching ghosts, wants to ruin others as a performer. The girl, that girl resisted, he attempted to be a beast, and even beat and killed people. Who knew that there would be a little doctor from the southwest in the opponent's team..."

"Second Uncle, how do you know..."

"When they questioned the hostages last night, I hid on the roof and listened for a while."

The Yan family's assassination skills are superb, and they also have a lot of skills in hiding secretly and inquiring about news. Yan Yunzhi heard this and smiled brightly: "Second uncle is really an old world."

"It is indeed old." Yan Tiehe said with emotion, "The five corpses in the forest this morning shocked me. How can the other party have such a strong skill at such a young age?"

"Could it be... more than one person from the Southwest came here this time? From my point of view, the young man who killed the steward surnamed Wu yesterday had reservations about his skills. Monk Cixin beat him several times and missed. He didn't take the opportunity to fight back either. But when he got to the Miaodao Shishui, his murderous intent suddenly appeared... This man seemed to be the Southwest Badao, but no one saw the two murders in the night after all, so it might be him made."

"It's possible, but what's more likely is that who knows what kind of monsters will be bred in the southwest Shura land."

Yan Tiehe sighed. In fact, everyone in the world now knows that the Southwest is powerful. His strength lies in the fact that he defeated the invincible Jurchen West Route Army head-on with his weak force. If you really want to think about it, how powerful is the Jurchen West Route Army?So, what are the details of the strength of the Southwest Army?People who have never experienced it will always have various ideas of their own, especially in the green forest, there are all kinds of weird sayings, true or false, it is difficult to determine.

At this time, the uncle and nephew could not help but think of these weird sayings.

Yan Tiehe said: "What Li Ruoyao is really afraid of today is actually the relationship between this young man and the Southwest. If a green forest expert is good at running in the wild, it is not surprising that dozens of people are afraid of hundreds of people with the power of one person, but it is martial arts. No matter how powerful, a person is only one person after all. Even if one reaches the realm of a grandmaster, at the beginning he is full of energy, of course it can be intimidating. If the Li family wants to gain a firm foothold in Tongshan, if they really want to find fault with the green forest strongman, even if the Li family suffers heavy casualties, they will always be able to kill the other party, so they won't be really afraid."

"But what if this young man is really from the Southwest Huaxia Army, or did he come out with some mission? You see, he pretended to be naive and hid among a group of scholars. He seemed powerless and hid for at least two months. Why is he?" Yan Tie said cohesively, "Maybe he went to Jiangning to do something important, but this time, he couldn't bear the immoral things done by the niece and son-in-law of the Li family. This person, in case the next one killed is a team of Huaxia Army..."

He lowered his voice: "In the past two years, the Huaxia Army has done business with the world. In order to protect the trade routes, people were sent out. There were these people on General Liu's territory. They fought in the southwest, and the most elite Jurchen The scouts are not at a disadvantage in fighting, all of them are ruthless, merciless and highly skilled in martial arts. If such a group of people kills the Li family, even if Li Yanfeng personally sits in the town, they will all be beheaded here. What the Li family is most afraid of now is this matter .”

Yan Yunzhi also nodded: "But the Li family is now riding a tiger. Now the niece and son-in-law were killed on the road, and the niece was killed at home. The matter is raging. If he dares not even arrest anyone, the Li family will lose face if they are around here."

"People must be arrested."

"Can the boy hide?"

"I've already said this. With one-on-many, those with high martial arts skills can make people frightened at first, but no one can be full of energy anytime and anywhere. In the fight in the forest last night, the other party used fishing nets Lime, and his moves are fatal, even Xu Dong's body, there are only three or five marks of knives. The time of this battle is definitely not as long as his killing Shishui Fang, but it takes energy, energy and energy. But it is definitely several times that of Shashi Shuifang. Now that the Li family household and the surrounding villages have been released, he will not be able to get away in the end."

Yan Yunzhi was silent for a moment: "Second Uncle, I just thought about it, if this boy really came out with other Southwest black flags, let alone, if he really left Southwest alone, would there be other possibilities?"

"...you tell me."

"Southwest acts fiercely, and fighting on the battlefield is frightening, but in the past world, I have never heard of them taking their children to the battlefield. This boy is fifteen or sixteen years old. When the Jurchen fought in the Southwest, he was only thirteen or fourteen. Martial arts must have a large part, which is the origin of family learning."

Yan Tiehe nodded.

"He was born in the southwest, and because of Miao Jiang's affairs, he killed Miao Jiang Shi Shuifang. From these things, it can be seen that at least the elders in his family must be old with Miao Jiang Ba Dao, and may even be Ba Dao Because of this relationship, he has practiced martial arts well, and he might have helped him on the battlefield, but if his parents were still there, wouldn't they throw this young man out of the Southwest and let him travel alone? "

"What do you think..."

"Both his parents died, so he might be a hero who died in the Southwest War." Yan Yunzhi said, "It's also because of this that he left the Huaxia Army to travel alone and travel around the world. My niece thinks that this possibility is also great. "

Yan Tiehe thought about it, looked at Yan Yunzhi, and Yan Yunzhi looked back seriously.After a while, Yan Tiehe smiled: "You mean..."

"It's fine if he has a mission..." Yan Yunzhi lowered his voice, "Actually, even if he has a mission, it is the Tongshan Li family that has a problem with the Huaxia Army, not our Yan family. It is a good relationship. But if it is as my niece expected, he has nothing to worry about in the southwest, and he is out to travel around the world. This kind of expert can be used by us... Second uncle, you also said that he and the Li family really want to fight Come on, we can only take advantage of the front, if we can save people along the way, if the world is in chaos in the future, this is a tiger general..."

As the carriage moved forward, although Yan Yunzhi's tone was not high, the words still fell into the ears of Yan Tiehe who was riding beside him verbatim. There is indeed no feud between the family and the Huaxia Army. No matter what the origin of the young man is, it is always good to have a relationship... This matter is not simple. I will discuss it with your senior brothers. If the young man is still alive Wandering nearby, it's easy for us to leave a message for him."

He was usually used to reading green forest novels, and naturally he also had some experience with all kinds of scheming and scheming. At this time, he felt that there was a lot to do, so he rode forward immediately and called the rest of the core members of the team to speak.

The steed galloped several zhang before it opened its mouth with one of Yan Yunzhi's seniors, when suddenly something happened from behind.

It was the figure of a pedestrian walking on the road, and rushed into the carriage where Yan Yunzhi was in in an instant, with just one kick, the coachman who was driving Yan Yunzhi, who was fairly skilled in martial arts, was kicked out and fell off the official road The grassy slope beside it rolled down with a gurgle.

At this moment, the figure tore open the curtain of the car, Yan Yunzhi rushed out with a sudden draw of the sword, stabbed out with the sword, and the opponent swung Yan Yunzhi's dagger with one hand.The other hand waved out, grabbed Yan Yunzhi's face, and pushed her back into the car like a chicken, and the wooden planks of the cart made a loud bang——

The whole team was alarmed, and everyone tried to kill the general.

The autumn afternoon sun was pale.
