Chapter 68: Swordsman, Girl, Big Man
Luoyang at this time.
All the people of aristocratic families are in danger, and peddlers and pawns dare not walk on the streets at will.
The huge city looks empty, and burnt frames and shops can be seen everywhere on the streets.
There were even corpses in the ditch that had not been cleaned, and foul smell spread in the air to make people sick.
The messy sound of horse hooves sounded at the end of the street, and Xiliang soldiers in groups of three or three were talking and laughing through the street. The residents on the roadside closed their doors and windows, fearing that any movement would sound, which made the group of beasts feel excited about breaking into the air door.
The drunk soldier's words were full of arrogance, pointing to his companions and talking about the charm and interesting things he had when he was romantic last night.
At this moment, a strange sound came from a certain alley.
The soldiers looked at each other, turned their horses and headed straight towards the entrance of the alley.
Kick!
The strange noise was still there, and the soldiers looked at each other and smiled. One of them said, "There is another fish that has escaped the net. There are too many rich families in Luoyang City. There are always a few who are ungrateful and want to escape with their money every day."
The others laughed and a few came to the entrance of the alley. Through the dim light, they saw a man facing away from them, as if he was carrying a heavy wooden box, and the strange noise was made by the box mopping the floor.
At this time, the man also discovered the Xiliang soldiers at the entrance of the alley. However, unexpectedly, he was very calm, put his hands on the box, patted them lightly, and then sighed.
“…”
About one stick of incense.
A large number of Xiliang soldiers arrived here on horseback.
I saw seven or eight corpses lying at the entrance of the alley. There was a neat sword mark on the neck of the corpse. Blood flowed all over the floor along the collar. At this moment, there was a hint of warmth. Looking closely, except for the sword marks on the neck, all the tendons of these people were broken by sharp blades.
On the wall next to it, nine bloody big words were extremely eye-catching.
【The murderer Wang Yue】
Among the soldiers, one of them rode out on a horse. Seeing these words, he said angrily: "Damn it, it's this guy again."
The soldier next to him clasped his fists and said, "General, this person should be still in the city. Just lock the city and search door to door, and you don't believe you can't find him."
Niu Fu frowned and shook his head and said, "The Lord has an order that no one is allowed to enter the people's houses from now on. At the same time, he also encourages the peddlers to start making a living. If the lord's plan is disrupted, can you afford it?"
"I..." The soldiers looked at each other, why did they suddenly issue such an order?
Seeing everyone's expression of displeasure, Niu Fu said in a deep voice: "You should be too presumptuous and have enough. Luoyang City will be our base camp in the future. If you follow your actions, will people still live in this city?"
The soldiers looked around and there were thick smoke everywhere, ruins and walls. They smiled embarrassedly and responded: "What the general said is, is the wise lord, and the brothers will do what they should do."
Niu Fu nodded with satisfaction, then looked at the corpse on the ground, frowned and said, "Turning the person back is very good, and this thief must let the lord decide."
Niu Fu and his group rushed towards the palace, and a woman walked out of a rammed earth yard across the street.
The woman stared in the direction where they disappeared for a while, then quickly closed the yard door and ran towards the alley on the other side.
After entering the alley and turning a few more bends, the woman came to a dilapidated courtyard gate.
When I opened the yard, dozens of children in the yard were so scared that their faces turned pale. After seeing the person clearly, they all returned to normal.
Two older children ran over, hugged the woman's legs, and cried, "Mom, brother is almost out of reach. Please save my brother, wuwu."
The woman's expression changed and she quickly walked towards the dilapidated hut. She lifted the straw curtain and stinked to her face. The woman forced herself to walk in and saw that the children lying all over the floor were generally not old and all of them were pale.
The woman came to a young child. The child was lying on the bed of a weed bed, her face was hot and hot. Seeing that his clothes were not like ordinary people, when she saw the woman coming, she kept crying for pain while covering her stomach.
After comforting for a while, the woman was at a loss and just asked the two older children to get water and let the young children drink some water first.
Just as the woman was sighing, a man outside the yard was wearing a large plain cloak and flashed in.
When the woman saw the visitor, she said excitedly: "Miss Ren, why are you here?"
The visitor took off his cloak, revealing his graceful curves and wearing a veil on his face. Although he couldn't see his appearance clearly, his eyebrows and expressions exposed outside made people unable to bear to look away from his eyes.
"Don't worry, Aunt He, I deliberately concealed my whereabouts when I came, and I wouldn't be exposed. By the way, I gave the children some food and some herbal clothes. I don't know if it can come in handy."
When the children in the yard were in a state of energy, they all gathered around the girl to ask for it. The dirty little hands left stains on the girl's body, but the girl was not moved, but calmly shared the food evenly with the children.
The woman took the herbs she handed over, smelled them, and responded happily: "Miss is a blessing, everyone is in danger now, and I am afraid of me, He, and you can still take the risk. I... thank the lady for helping the young ladies and the young ladies."
The girl smiled indifferently and asked as usual: "Is this medicine useful?"
The woman nodded repeatedly, "It's useful, it's useful, the young master will definitely be saved."
When the girl heard this, she looked up at the young child in the room, but there was a hint of ferociousness in her calm eyes just now.
···
Zhong Xian rode a fast horse all the way south. After crossing the river, he walked east along Jianhe and arrived at Luoyang.
Along the way, there are seven short posts and three long posts.
The short post is usually run by locals. Because the price is cheap and there is no need to check passers-by documents, the environment is very chaotic. Basically, everyone can live in it, and it is not an exaggeration to describe these places as a mixture of fish and dragons. If you don’t have some skills, most people will not choose to spend the night in the short post.
Changyi is the so-called official office. The environment can be better, but you need to have a passerby certificate to allow you to move in.
This is a bamboo document. The bamboo joints generally record the names of the person holding the bamboo joints, the officials who issued the bamboo joints, the date and destination, etc.
If the staff finds that the information is wrong when passing the level, the person holding the bamboo joint will be expelled.
During the Han Dynasty, this kind of certificate used for identity certificates was even more complicated. In addition to carrying bamboo joints, it also had to bring a manual called "Chuan". The instructions recorded in this manual were the materials and residences carried by people who were traveling, etc.
There is also a record in "Palm Jie": "Those who understand the world must have a secret and support it."
Before Zhong Xian left, the reason why he found Wei Yan was that he needed Wei's help to issue "Journals" and "Chief". With Wei's endorsement, Zhong Xian could get away from the world with his "Journals" and "Chief" and "Chief" in his hands, and would be treated preferentially. This is the foundation of the aristocratic family.
On this day, Zhong Xian rode his horse and stopped at the inn, which was less than a hundred miles away from Luoyang to rest.
As soon as I walked into the station, I heard a loud shout. I looked up and saw more than a dozen people from the green forest sitting together, and a young man in half-body leather armor was telling something vividly.
Everyone was not surprised when they saw Zhong Xian coming in, but someone couldn't help but look at the luggage behind him.
Zhong Xian carefully wrapped the split tiger-headed Zhan golden spear and compound bow in burlap and tied it directly to his back. It looked like an ordinary walking business trip, but it was not conspicuous.
After sitting down, someone brought a pot of water. Zhong Xian dipped his fingers in water and wrote a [sheep] on the table. He gestured to ask for two pounds of mutton. The door didn't ask again. He just felt that Zhong Xian was cold and would not think about him in a silence.
At this time, Zhong Xian listened carefully to the conversation between the people over there.
I heard the young man in the middle say, "...I was afraid you wouldn't believe it when I said it. I took a look from a distance. The gentian bright silver spear was so cold that the place where the gun head passed, blood splattered everywhere and the head flew around. The most incredible thing was... a little thirsty."
"Oh, you are so boring, why are you thirsty again? Tell me quickly, what is the most incredible thing?"
"Yes, you said that."
"Haha, don't worry, wait for me to drink a little wine to moisten my throat."
Zhong Xian looked back and frowned slightly, and his hands couldn't help but touch the package behind him. The hard gun body inside was cold, but it gave him an endless sense of security.
After drinking a bowl of turbid wine, the young man continued, "The most incredible thing is, do you know the dragon on the gun's head? I vaguely heard the sound of dragon sounds. I thought I heard it wrong, so I looked at the gun's head. Wow, guess what... The gun killed dozens of people, but there was no drop of blood on the gun's head. When I looked closely, I saw that the blood on the gun was absorbed by the dragon pattern!"
"It's true or false. Is there really such a magic weapon in this world?" Someone raised doubts.
The young man turned around and looked at the man, put his hands on his chest, and sneered: "Frog in the well, I have seen the gentian bright silver spear with my own eyes, and it is now in the hands of the Wei family in Hedong. If you don't believe me, go and ask, who is in Hedong, and who doesn't know?"
Speaking of this, the young man's face changed, and his tone suddenly changed, saying, "However, although the gentian bright silver spear was sharp, it ranks low among the seventy-two earthly evil weapons. I heard that Wei had a total of 12 earthly evil weapons, one of which could kill dragons and snakes, and another poem was circulated."
"The Earth Demon's Heavy Weapon!"
"Dragon Slaying Sword!"
"What kind of poems are you? Read it and listen."
"Yes, yes, read it quickly. If it sounds nice, you can have enough wine and meat."
The young man looked happy and bowed to the wealthy man. After a while, he said loudly: [The Supreme Martial Arts World, the sword slays the dragon. The command of the world, no one dares to refuse to follow. If the Heavens does not come out, who will compete with him?]
Guru...
The scene was silent for a moment, and many people swallowed hard, savoring the domineering spirit of these few twenty words.
The young man hugged his chest with his hands, even though he knew he was a child, he couldn't help but get goose bumps at this time. The Supreme Martial Arts World, the sword slaying dragons, what a guy, as soon as he said this, the heroes of the green forest in the world would not have their eyes red.
The post leader of the post station didn't care about it, and always thought it was a young man who was talking nonsense, but he didn't dare to be careless at this time. The shock these twenty-four words brought him even more terrifying than the previous Gentian silver spear.
He first glanced at the young man, then quietly went out through the back door and came to a residence with a separate courtyard behind the inn. This was a house specially prepared for important people. Those who could live there were naturally not simple identities.
Yicheng stood at the door for a while, and only heard the wind in the yard, and the sounds were deafening. He knew that the adult was practicing martial arts again.
This adult is not a respectful title, but a very large person in the true sense.
"Hmph, who is coming?" The thunder sounded, and Yi Cheng was so scared that he hurriedly pushed open the door and said, "It's me, it's me."
When he saw Yi Cheng, the man frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Didn't you say that? Don't bother me if you're fine."
Yi Cheng looked up and saw that the man in front of him was the only person he had seen in his life. In front of him, he was as weak as a horn child, for fear that he would be slapped to death by the other party.
"Yes, that's right. There is a ranger from Hedong in front of him who is taking some interesting travel stories. He thought that the general should be interested, so he took the initiative to come and inform the general."
"Ranker?" The man frowned slightly.
Yi Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, it's about the magical weapons in the world. It is said that there are 72 heavy weapons in the world. No matter which one is, as long as someone gets it, they can improve their strength level. One of them is called the gentian bright silver spear, the other is called the Dragon Slaying, and the other is a poem."
"Oh, I'll listen."
Yi Cheng cleared his throat, and he felt that if he was weak, he would insult the magnificent poem after reading it.
"Ahem, General, listen... The Supreme Martial Arts World, the sword slays the dragon. The command of the world, no one dares to refuse to obey. If the Heavenly Heaven does not come out, who will compete with us?"
Click!
Yi Cheng had just finished reading, but the door frame on the side of the man was instantly crushed. The man grabbed the door frame on both sides with both hands. The door frame made of solid wood was as fragile as clay sculpture in his hands.
"The Supreme Martial Arts World, the sword slays the dragon, and the command of the world, no one dares to refuse to obey... Hahahaha... Where is this person now? Take someone over."
Yi Cheng looked at the crushed threshold and swallowed with difficulty, pointing to the front yard: "Just ahead, the general will follow me."
The big man snorted coldly, found a piece of clothing to put on it, thought about it, and picked up the weapons with a strange shape on the side.
This great man was already extremely tall. His weapon was one head taller than him. The handle was thicker, comparable to the arms of an adult. The shape of the two-edged and three-shot "#" on it was more like a special ritual soldier for sacrifices, rather than a practical combat soldier.
Seeing Yi Cheng looked surprised and suspicious.
The great man said proudly: "This is a Fangtian Painted Ridge, weighing more than 100 kilograms, which can be chopped hard, flying shovels, and directly hit. It was made by a famous craftsman in Xiliang who took ninety-nine to eighty-one days and spent a lot of manpower and material resources. What do you think?"
Yi Cheng was stunned for a moment, glanced at Fang Tian Hua Ji, which didn't look like a weapon, and recalled the gentian bright silver spear described by the young man, and then asked with a strange expression: "May the general, this magic weapon, suck human blood?"
Chapter completed!
