Chapter 171 Tonight Take Your Head
Although Zhang Youqian had never expressed anything to Lin Hongyi, he could see that he still liked Lin Hongyi quite a bit. But he was not sure whether Lin Hongyi liked him.
In Jinling, Wang Linglong's incident had a great blow to Zhang Youqian.
I had privately asked Jiangnan and asked Wang what was going on between Zhang. Jiangnan told me that King Chong of Xuanyuan Sword did not agree with Wang Linglong and Zhang Youqian being together, but the reason was because of the disagreement of family members.
Most of the famous families such as King Xie of Jiangnan were moved from the Jin Dynasty and had a strong sense of family status. No matter how rich the Wang family was, they were just barbarians from the north in the eyes of the Wang family. They would never allow the Wang family to marry foreigners.
I don’t know what happened between the two, but since then, Zhang Youqian worked hard to practice martial arts and relied on a cheap master to break through two realms in a row. I don’t know if it was a good or a bad thing. When Zhang Youqian looked at Lin Hongyi and left, I asked, “Do you like her?”
Zhang Youqian was stunned and said whether he liked it or not. When he returned to the capital, there were more girls waiting for me to hurt him. He got on the horse and left quickly.
Even if there are official procedures for tribute to silver, the money that should be spent cannot be vague, such as boxers.
The two boxers we hired, one is Song Chufeng and the other is Li Zixiong. These two are only in the realm of martial arts, but they have strong connections on both sides of the Yellow River. This is exactly what we like about them. Land transportation is not as good as Heyun, and there are more people and card. This requires old martial arts like Song and Li to help coordinate personnel.
Song and Li are said to be young as escorts from the Central Plains Escort Agency. They are more popular in the Yellow River area. They are known as the Earth Dragon and the Tiger across the Mountain. When they get older, they quit their jobs at the escort agency and are in a semi-retired state.
Li Zixiong rarely speaks, and he always sticks his sword around his waist, and he refuses to let go even when he is resting. In his words, as a swordsman, he never leaves his body. Song Chufeng talks a lot, and tells us all the way about the anecdotes of walking in the world, of course there are also many bragging elements.
Alas, the world of the world is worse than the other. To be honest, when we were walking in the world, there were many masters in the world, and the five masters in the Central Plains were so powerful. At that time, there were many topics, such as "the east and the west do not meet each other", "the north and the south have no first place" and so on. When the two masters met, they would do it if they were not convinced. The focus was on avenging their grudges.
If you look at the world of the world now, those who are a little famous in the world will value their own identity and cherish their feathers. Even if they are duels, they will stop and give in to each other. If they really can't beat them, they will join forces. What kind of brothers, hometown swords, and they will join forces to seek fame and fortune together, and even the only remaining blood in the world will be gone. It's so sad.
Song Chufeng said again, "Looking back then, Zixiong and I joined forces, stepped on both sides of the Yellow River, punched 72 states, and relying on a sword in my hand, I took a breath in my heart and picked up the Tiger Village and the Heifeng Village masters. How free and happy it was. The two heroes of Longhu, the Central Plains Escort Agency, were not in vain.
I laughed in my heart. I have never heard of the nine-rate sects like Laohu Village and Heifeng Village in the world. I guess the people on the hills were born in the mountains. I would be very embarrassed to show off such achievements. However, it is quite interesting to think about it.
The same world is like the same in the eyes of Xu Kaishan, Feng Wanli and others, and in the eyes of people like the dragon, Song Chufeng, and Li Zixiong, the tiger across the mountain, they are like the same. So I asked, have you heard of Murong Baiyun?
Song Chufeng was stunned and said to Murong Baiyun? Isn’t this the martial arts leader back then, but what about the martial arts leader? Why don’t he still die at the hands of our Central Plains Escort Agency?
I was shocked, what?
Song Chufeng was about to speak, but Li Zixiong shouted, "Old Song!" Song Chufeng said sorry, there are many taboos in our industry, and some things are inconvenient to say.
The speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional. I have heard of the Central Plains Escort Agency. More than 20 years ago, it was the leader of the four major escort agencies, with business covering the Central Plains, Northern Zhou and Xiliang. Now the leader Li Laifu is very famous in the world, but this person is very low-key and rarely appears.
Zhang Youqian said, "I have worked in the Central Plains Escort Agency for a while before doing business. To put it this way, the two of them are my seniors."
Several people walked and chatted while walking. Since they were on the official road and when they changed the route, they had sent people to report to the capital, so they would not encounter any trouble. On this day, it only took five days to enter Cangzhou.
The convoy suddenly stopped and there was a noise ahead.
General Lu asked, what's going on?
After a moment, a soldier came over and said, "There is someone blocking the way in front of you."
General Lu asked again, how many people?
Bing Ding replied: There is a child.
Lu Cong General angrily said, "It's outrageous. It's bright and bright. Someone dared to block the road and rob our court of tribute silver. He was so impatient. As he said that, we came with him to the front."
In the middle of the post road, there was a chair with his legs crossed, and a young man sat on the chair, with more than 30 big men following behind him. The boy was eleven or twelve years old, with his waist and a red jacket, holding a branch in his mouth, and his eyes were provocative, looking at us.
Lu Congjiang just slapped his hand. Isn’t there only one child?
Bing Ding covered his face and said yes, it was just a child. Lu Congzheng cursed, can he talk to you?
He took two steps back and negotiated with the two boxers Song and Li. Song Chufeng said, "I ran the capital line more than ten times a year, and I have never met these people." However, taking money to eliminate disasters for others, Song and Li stepped forward, bowed a little, and met the other party in the incision. Friends who combined the characters, opened the mountain and set up a cabinet, or were they against Feng Shui?"
The child started to scold, saying that he was messy, but he couldn't understand and spoke human words.
Song and Li Nai were old in the world. As soon as they came up, they asked about their background and origin according to the rules of the world. If they were really a junior apprentice from a famous and upright sect, they would also discuss their friendship. Unexpectedly, as soon as they opened their mouths, they would be choked by the boy half to death and could not bear the burden of face.
So, young people should keep their mouths in their words. When we were dominating the world, you were still breastfeeding.
The boy was not angry and said with a smile, "Then you two are really getting backwards as you live. After so many years, your martial arts have not improved."
Song and Li were embarrassed and angry, and they were unsheathed. They pointed at the young man and said, "Little kid, you have to kneel down and beg for mercy. We think you are a junior, so we won't care about you, otherwise we won't blame you for being rude."
The boy laughed loudly and didn't get up. He said lightly, "You must be able to move this chair or let me leave this chair."
Song Chufeng and Li Zixiong would definitely not join forces to deal with a little kid. If you lose like this, you are embarrassing and won't be able to win. The boy sighed, are you two going to be old but you will be a turtle in the end?
The two were furious and swords came out together to attack the boy. However, the two just wanted to teach him a lesson, but did not use a killing move. When the sword attacked, the boy slapped his hands with his hands, and came to his hands with a sheath. With a light stroke, he easily broke the two moves.
I secretly praised the sword skills, and this young man's martial arts are so powerful.
The two failed to hit the attack, and were ashamed, roaring repeatedly, and attacking the young man again. The young man did not move at all, and he fought with the two men like a joke, but he was not in a hurry to win. After more than ten moves, the young man smiled and said, "The skill is not the same."
The scabbard swept across and knocked the two away.
From beginning to end, he did not unsheath his swords.
Cong General Lu was responsible for the escort. Seeing the other party sting, he had to ask, "This little hero, we are from the government, and we are going to the capital to deliver things. I wonder if the little hero can be so proud of our butts and let our convoy get over?"
The boy snorted coldly, what did he give? It wasn't a bribe to the Beijing official, right?
Lu Congjiang did not reply.
The boy shouted at this time, who is Su Youzai?
I was shocked when I heard this. It turned out that this guy was coming for me. Although this little kid had good martial arts skills, he was not my opponent. But I was afraid that this boy would have a background behind him. If he was really instructed, it would be a bad thing.
I stepped forward and said, I am.
The boy looked at me, nodded, and said that someone asked me to send you a letter. After that, he took out a letter from his arms and vomited his internal force slightly. The letter floated into my hands as if it had wings.
I was about to open it, but the boy said, "Wait, we're leaving, you're opening it."
After the boy left, I hurriedly opened the letter paper, which read a sentence, "The third update tonight, I will take the head on your neck."
Zhang Youqian came over and asked, "What kind of awesome enemies have you provoked?" I shook my head and said, "I have been in the capital for less than two months, and I am busy every day like a dog. The biggest enemy is you." Zhang Youqian said that's right, you should be careful."
I said that life and death have destiny and wealth are in heaven, so take one step at a time.
The convoy continued to move north. Song and Li made a fool of themselves today, lost face, resigned from their position as boxer, and returned home. Lu Cong General and Feng Bao discussed it and believed that these people were coming to us. In order not to implicate the convoy, we were following far away. As a result, at night, they stayed at the inn, but let us live in a guest room not far away.
After dinner, I and Zhang Youqian were watching the night. We couldn't sit still and wait for death. We prepared crossbow arrows, Anqingzi, and even two Five Poison Thunderbolt Bullets, just waiting for the person who was about to kill me to come.
Waiting for someone is not a very easy thing, and waiting for someone to kill you is not a happy thing. Especially when you don’t know who the other party is and why you are going to kill you.
At the second update, there was no movement outside.
At the third update, Zhang Youqian and I were fully alert and were on guard. But after a stick of incense, there was still no movement.
Zhang Youqian said, brother, don’t worry, the King of Hell will let you die in the third update, and will not leave you until the fifth update. Don’t worry, yours is yours after all, and what should come will come.
I praised you, you are so good at comforting people, you are worthy of being my good brother.
At the fifth o'clock in the morning, there was a rooster crowing in the distance, and the person who killed me still did not come.
I told Zhang Youqian, wouldn’t I keep me until the fifth update?
Zhang Youqian said maybe there was a traffic jam, so don’t worry, it will come, it will come.
At this time, two figures floated over. It was the boy in red-clothed during the day. A woman in purple was accompanied by a gauze masked, holding two swords in her hand, and appeared in front of us.
Zhang Youqian said, why are you here? It will be waiting for you all night.
