Chapter 043 – A horseman is the first to ride, a man is the gatekeeper
Jiangnan this snow finally gradually small gradually rest, two carriages slowly traveling in the post road, all the way, roadside more than acacia willow overwhelmed by the snow pressure off, after entering Jiangnan, that is, the death of Shih-Wu this kind of temperament jumping off the teenager, but also gradually speech is not light up. According to the geography of the map shows, the front of the city, from the capital has been more than 800 miles apart, what this means, who all know. At dusk, from the early morning to start on the carriage did not meet a resting point stopped at a place, is a look at the look of a fairly new temple, the cold ghost weather, is still a constant stream of visitors, ride the carriage people thought to go to ask for a meal to eat, get off, see the plaque, carrying three long swords of the middle-aged Taoist monk suddenly will smile. Dragon Tiger Wudang two mountains, about Taoism ancestor of the fight, the latter undoubtedly fell in the wind, did not think in the south of the land, there are Taoist temples to worship Zhenwu Da Di. Into the temple after taking a seat, perhaps the temple Taoist see guests wearing Wudang Mountain robe, plus the extraordinary temperament, soon alarmed the true martial arts temple within a position of transcendent elderly Taoist, personally receive this group of guests, a question, learned that is one of the highest seniority of Wudang Mountain Wang Xiaoping in person to visit, that is really shocked after the whole face of the old man smiles open flowers, recited a lot of times of the P蓬荜生辉, although the Dragon and Tiger Mountain power over the world’s most famous mountain caves A head, by virtue of the same name with the son of heaven and a few feathered ministers to create the momentum of the heritage, a unique frame, but in the eyes of the world, easy-going Wudang Mountain, especially the big lotus peak on the few never easy to go down the mountain of the real people, but also the same is the Taoist masters of the Immortal Pai head, Wang Xiaoping traveled to the jianghu, holding a Shentian Fu Jian all the way to kill endless numbers of demons and monsters, has long been widely rumored in the jianghu. Xu Fengyen and his entourage to eat, and the Taoist some talk, only to know that the temple was once destroyed in the Spring and Autumn War, and then by the local gentry and tycoons spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to build a new one, which covers an area of eight acres, in fact, has been a violation of the system, only the Shenwu City, widely accepted by the love of the old temple, the parents of the officials are happy to see it happen, so they turned a blind eye.
After eating fasting, the old Taoist personally led the gang of outsiders to the Zhenwu Hall, east and west have their own halls, the main hall in the Zhenwu Emperor feet on the tortoise and snake, both sides of the walls are cloudy patterns, Xu Fengyen into the hall before this would like to follow the customs of the countryside, burn a stick of incense, the results were Wang Xiaoping stopped, the old Taoist glanced at it, did not think about it, Xu Fengyen stood in the bushes before, thinking of the year when the siblings boarded the Wudang, the older sister to wander around, the second sister pulled him ghosts, the second sister was a ghost. The second sister pulled him sneaking around behind the statue of Zhenwu, and saw her take the dagger in her sleeve to carve “sentenced to three thousand miles” that line of small words, at that time, the child nature, only feel that the second sister is so treasonous, only to be addicted to relieve anger. Xu Fengyen looked up at the statue and let out a long breath. The old Taoist is the first time to see such a young even white head of incense, for some reason, incense are piled up outside, at the moment the hall is surprisingly silent, the eyes of the young man full of frost and snow, white clothes and white shoes, under the backdrop of the main hall as if the gods are in a trance, as if the statue of the true martial arts emperor have a few indescribable immortal spirit, has always been curiosity are skewed towards the Wudang sword idiot Wang Xiaoping’s vicissitudes of the Taoist in the heart can not help but said In his heart, he couldn’t help but say, “That’s strange.
Xu Fengyen, Huishan purple Xuanyuan Qingfeng, three swords on the back of Wang Xiaoping, a shot of the brake gun will be quietly hidden in the carriage under the axle of the green bird, the young man e, full of enthusiasm want to go to the north of the Liang to show their ambitions of the Liu Wenbao, the six out of the incense of the temple of the true martial arts, walking towards the carriage, drilling into the carriage before, Xu Fengyen suddenly Xuanyuan Qingfeng said: “You will stop here, Liu Artemisia masters in the south of the sneak! The descendants of the Liu Clan who moved to the capital, you go to intercept and kill them once, if you can kill a few is a few, don’t force yourself too much, it’s the best if you can not disclose your identity, and don’t wear any purple clothes, after all, your roots are still in Hui Mountain in the territory of Guangling Dao jurisdiction.”
Xuanyuan Qingfeng cold face to face, a pair of autumn water long eyes, covered with undisguised anger.
Xu Fengyen was unimpressed and said, “Since you decided not to make a move, it’s better to part ways for now than to distract me when the time comes.”
Xuanyuan Qingfeng bluntly asked with a cold smile, “Are you harboring a grudge against me for not helping you to intercept Han Diaoji? Or are you afraid in the back of your mind that I’ll drop the ball and stab you in the back?”
Xu Fengnian looked at her indifferently, “Both.”
Xuanyuan Qingfeng stared at Xu Fengnian dead in the face, said three good words in succession, and swept away.
Xu Fengyen looked at Qingtiao and asked softly, “All arranged?”
She nodded slightly. Xu Fengyen bent his head down and drilled into the carriage, leaning against the wall of the car sitting on his knees, two times out on a long trip, which all have the shadow of the Locke ball, this dead fat man is naturally not to follow in the back of the ass to eat dust or to see His Highness the Shizi’s jokes, the old part of the Beiliang was dispersed all over the place back in the day, Tiemengguan battle is enough to see that the poisonous Shi Li Yishan’s masterstroke, while the layout of the more similar is obviously more than just not confine to a moment in time and a place, these prima donna of spring and autumn, most of them are indeed due to various reasons. Old pawns, most of them are indeed because of various reasons away from the military, but many elite people are each with their own purpose coincidentally chose to hibernate, respectively, hidden in the wilderness and the city, Beiliang is now with the emperor completely tore off the last layer of skin, since Xu Fengyen will succeed in becoming the next king of Beiliang, these chess pieces is the time to take the initiative to pull out, to the barren land of the north of Beiliang and close to the, all of which are in accordance with Li Yishan’s One of the brocade bags, began to carry out in an organized manner, but one of the forces converged in a dark current, only to specifically target Han Diaoji alone!
A light cavalry of six hundred people.
A force of iron horsemen three hundred men.
A mountain bandits two hundred outlaws, the least number of people, but the strongest, because mixed with the Northern Liang from the rivers and lakes absorbed and raised nearly eighty eagle dogs.
In addition to the last blocking Han Diaoji hidden forces, the first two are not military emergency, completely surfaced after the local were caught off guard, state and county officials are jaw-dropping, do not dare to act rashly, just through the postman quickly want to pass the military situation, one by one, like ants on the hot pot, for fear that such a large number of elite soldiers mutiny collectively, they will be harmed to lose their official hat. In contrast, the capital side of the internal official supervisor eunuch Song Tanglu suddenly jumped to become the seal of the Palace Supervisor, the world’s eunuchs, the first person Han Diaoji “old age” in the palace for no reason, for the local officials is just far away from the horrific news, huge ripples in the layers of attenuation after the ripple less than the local Daozhou County County four levels.
Wang Xiaoping took the unprecedented step of sitting in Xu Fenian’s carriage and asked, “Do you really want to take hundreds or even thousands of lives to fill that bottomless hole?”
Xu Fengnian calmly said, “There’s no way around it, with Han Diaoji alive for a day, I can’t live in peace for a day, since he dared to cut me off openly, of course I have to try my best to let him get a rise out of it.”
Wang Xiaoping stopped talking, his face couldn’t be talked about.
Xu Fengnian rested the Northern Liang sword that accompanied Xu Snapdragon throughout his life of military service on his knee and said softly, “Since I have come this far, there is no turning back. I also don’t say any bullshit like mercy doesn’t control soldiers, but really don’t have the energy to get entangled with people outside of Beiliang anymore, simply come clean, just like the scene outside the curtain, white, those who seek death go to die, those who don’t deserve to die, try to survive.”
Xu Feng Nian said to himself, “Xu Snap said, until the last resort, the 300,000 iron horsemen of Northern Liang will never step towards the Central Plains. Otherwise, in these twenty years, if Northern Liang had attached itself to Northern Mang and raised their troops southward together, their days would definitely be better than now. But to be a human being, there is still some bottom line. With Xu primrose words, that is a family with grudges, that is also closed door to bump into, talk together is the best, even if talk together, but also is the door, hold up to get a small yard, the family old and dead, outside the door of the grubs or not, there are pirates or not, as long as he Xu primrose one day stood in the door, never open the door to invite the thief reason.”
Xu Fengnian smiled to himself, “I was afraid to die, some of it is also afraid that Xu Snapdragon already has so many curses, and then because I can’t hold up the unfilial son and rebel out of the Central Plains, the old man also scolded as a slave of the two surnames, then I died, but also really do not have the face to go see my mother.”
Wang Xiaoping remained speechless.
It was getting closer and closer to Shenwu City.
The hooves of the six hundred horses were fierce like thunder.
Xu Fengyen left the carriage, the opposite riding general rolled over and dropped his horse, kneeling down to greet him.
The next three hundred riders and two hundred people arrived almost simultaneously.
Xu Fengyen rode alone on an unridden warhorse and rode in the lead.
Amidst the wind and snow, a man in black was vaguely visible, a man of honor.
The next scene was creepy.
Wang Xiaoping didn’t really go willingly to hand out the three swords until this moment.
The tenth person in the world, Han Diaoji, stopped the road and stood.
After seeing a white horse at the head, he began to run against it.
Xu Fengnian, one person and one horse, without any stagnation, accelerated the horse and ran wildly.
