In early summer, the mountains in the North are green and the pines are like the sea. The crooked neck tree on the cliff is swaying in the wind. A young man wearing white trousers and a dark blue short-sleeved shirt is sitting on it with his legs dangling.
I saw him resting his head on the tree trunk with his hands, looking into the void with his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. "Yang Peng, you stinky boy, are you lazy again?" The young man was in a trance, and he didn't know when he would come under the big tree.
We met a middle-aged female Taoist priest wearing moon-white Taoist robes. However, what she held in her hand was not a fly whisk, but a large baggage. Judging from the look on her face, it seemed that she had just come back from a distance.
"Ah? The master is back!" The young man exclaimed, turned over and jumped down from the tree, knelt down with fists in his hands and saluted: "Disciple has seen the master!" "Okay, stop pretending in front of me!" The female Taoist waved her hands, and then
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he said: "Sit down, I have something to say to you." The young man quickly sat cross-legged opposite the master and looked at the master curiously.
"You have been staying with me for four years, and I have never told you your origin. As for you, you managed to save your life from the Khitan people when they were clearing grass in the valley. You can be considered as escaping from the clutches of the Khitan people.
What a great blessing. However, even though you didn’t say anything, I know that you have your own ambitions and you can’t follow me forever in the mountains and forests.”
The female Taoist put down the baggage in her hands, clapped her hands and said, "Peng'er, if you really want to talk about it, we are fellow travelers. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let you stay here for so long and teach you martial arts. Now.
, you are already nineteen, it is time for you to know who I am." As the female Taoist narrated, Yang Peng's expression suddenly became rich. It turned out that this female Taoist actually had a great background! She was actually the mother of Qilang of the Yang family in the Song Dynasty.
Knowing that Yang Qilang died of thousands of arrows piercing the heart of the Khitan people, he felt so angry that he did not return to Bianjing. Instead, he became a nun in the nearby mountains. The leader of the "Yuxi Sect" is Lin Qing'er, the Holy Mother of Huanglian!
She was originally born into a boat family on the Southeast Canal in Shandong. She began to practice boxing with her father when she was young, and she was so good at plum blossom darts that she could kill people without being seen! At the age of nine, she began to perform with her father in Bianjing, and was saved by She Taijun and married to Yang Yeyou.
After giving birth to a son named Yang Qilang, who was the seventh in the family, Lin Qing'er traveled extensively and experienced a lot.
At that time, the Khitan people were increasingly expanding and rampant in the Song Dynasty. The people in Cangzhou often plowed grass and valleys. The people of the Song Dynasty here were simply miserable. Lin Qing'er heard that her son died at the hands of the Khitan people. Lin Qing'er was not
Like other widows in the Yang family, Lin Qing'er was very disappointed with the emperor of the Song Dynasty. There was no way that she could work for the emperor of the Zhao family because of the treacherous ministers in power. So she walked out and saw the people in the north living in dire straits along the way. Lin Qing'er
Qing'er took in orphans here near Cangzhou, all of whom were girls, and founded the Yuxi Sect.
Once again, I met a Khitan man who rescued an old monk from Dacaogu. When he was dying, he gave Lin Qing'er a book of Plum Blossom Boxing, telling her to find a way to escape and pass on the Plum Blossom Boxing. At this time, Lin Qing'er was beside her.
There were only nine personal maids left. When Yang Peng saw the master finished speaking, he pondered for a moment and asked: "Master, how come you haven't seen any of the older sisters who follow you?" Fortunately, Lin Qing'er was immersed in painful thoughts,
I didn't hear Yang Peng talking to himself.
"Master, please don't be sad, I will avenge them!" Yang Peng suddenly stood up, clenched his fists with both hands, stared at the north and said: "I swear to kill all those Khitan dogs and avenge Yang Qilang!"
"Peng'er, don't worry about me, I'm not sad. Lin Qing'er raised her head, looked at Yang Peng and said: "I only have hatred in my heart. Unfortunately, one person's power is limited after all. The Khitans are so numerous that they can't kill them.
. When I went out this time, I first went to Muke Village, and then to Youzhou. The Khitan dog became more and more arrogant, and I almost got entangled and couldn't escape."
"Oh, there is such a thing?" Yang Peng knew how capable his master was, so he asked in surprise: "Master, you are not injured, are you? You have been out for more than two months, what have you been busy with?
"It's nothing. I just went out to do two things." Lin Qing'er said with a smile: "This year is the sixth anniversary of the murder of your five uncles. I went out and killed five Khitan dogs who were doing evil in the grass hunting valley."
It's considered a memorial. The other thing is for you. Look -" Before Lin Heier finished speaking, he grabbed the bag and opened it. Then he took out a leather case, which looked like a vest. However, there was a
There was a white object in the circle. With a touch of her right hand, she took out a shiny object with five points and handed it to Bai Shujie.
Yang Peng took it and saw that the object was only three inches in size. It was the plum blossom dart he had been practicing for four years!
"Here, take it from Sheng'er. These are the eighteen bright silver plum blossom darts specially made for you by my master." Lin Qing'er handed the vest to Yang Peng and said, "You have to practice more in the future, otherwise your hands will become raw."
Too bad."
"Don't worry, Master, I won't take this kind of life-saving method lightly!" Yang Peng took the vest with his left hand and threw his right hand back. A white light flashed and a branch as thick as a little finger was cut off twenty meters away.
Sheng's figure flashed, and he caught up with the plum blossom dart and held it in his hand. "Well, it seems that you have not been lazy in the past two months, and your physical skills have improved." Lin Qing'er looked at Yang Peng and said with a smile: "However, it's just that
This kind of hit-and-miss technique is not enough. The technique of two phoenixes flying together requires more practice."
"I will remember your teachings, practice hard, and strive to get down from the mountain for revenge as soon as possible!" Yang Peng put on the vest and felt that it fit him very well. He couldn't help but feel grateful to the master in his heart: "Master, you are the one who saved me."
I haven't repaid you for your kindness, and these things keep worrying you all the time!" "What are you talking nonsense about?" Lin Qing'er waved her hand: "I am the only disciple like you, and I know that after we have been together for more than four years.
You are an upright and promising good boy, so naturally I will have no reservations about you. However, martial arts alone is not enough nowadays, so I have prepared another gift for you."
With that said, Lin Qing'er took out a small baggage from the baggage and handed it to Yang Peng and said: "This is a hand crossbow. The only way to defeat the barbarians is to learn their skills from the barbarians!"
Yang Peng took the baggage with both hands and felt his hands heavy. When he opened the baggage, he saw two hand crossbows with bright blue paint! One of them was a hand crossbow with twenty rounds of bows and arrows, and the other was with ten rounds.
Bows and arrows are hand-held crossbows, and people in the world call them the Ten Sons Company. When Yang Peng saw this kind of good thing that he had always wanted to have in his dream, he was inexplicably excited. He looked at the treasure in his hand over and over, his face was flushed, and it took him a long time to react.
Come here. So he quickly put down the baggage in his hands, knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the master respectfully.
"Get up!" Lin Qing'er raised her hands slightly and said with a smile: "I have never used this thing before. I heard it is very powerful. I searched for it for a long time before I got it from the home of a high-ranking Khitan official.
These are the only things there, I got them all back, you can see for yourself."
"Master, you dared to break into the Khitan dog's house alone. You are really awesome!" Yang Peng got up, grabbed the crossbow and said, "This is an extremely powerful guy." After giving the master a brief explanation, Yang Peng
After opening the bag, I discovered that in addition to the two hand crossbows, there were also ten bridge-shaped bows and four arrow clips that were already filled with arrows. There were also five sandalwood boxes. When I opened them, they were all dark.
Bows and arrows. Each box contains 150 bows and arrows, and there are also 40 loose bows and arrows, for a total of 790 bows and arrows. I don’t know who this Khitan official is. He is really amazing. Unexpectedly
Made so many hand crossbows and arrows.
"Master, you are so kind!" Yang Peng laughed loudly: "Two hand crossbows and seven hundred bows and arrows cost hundreds of taels of silver! This is a lot of wealth!"
Lin Qing'er's face straightened, and she said seriously: "What kind of wealth is this? On the one hand, it is to save your life, and on the other hand, I want you to kill more Khitan dogs for me! If you dare to use these things to do evil in the future, even if
If you go to the end of the world, I will also settle the score with you!" Yang Peng knelt down in front of his master, pointing his right index finger to the sky and said: "I, Yang Peng, hereby swear that the weapons in my hands are designed to kill Khitan dogs, bullies and bandits who do all kinds of evil.
Bully! If you violate this oath, you will be punished by heaven and earth!"
"Okay, I believe you, otherwise I wouldn't have prepared these things for you!" Lin Qing'er helped Bai Shujie stand up, and then said: "I have already taught you everything I can teach you. There is no one in the world who can't
The banquet has been broken up. Now is the troubled time. You clean up tonight and go down the mountain to experience tomorrow. You don’t have to say goodbye to me when you leave. I hope you will kill more Khitan dogs in the future and everything will go well!"
After Lin Qing'er finished speaking, she turned around and left without hesitation, and then disappeared in a few flashes.
Yang Peng looked at the master's back, and finally couldn't help but shed tears in his eyes. He fell to his knees with a plop, kowtowed nine times, and then whispered: "Master, don't worry.
I will definitely not let you down! Khitan dog, just wash your neck and wait, your uncle will be here soon!"
It turned out that this Yang Peng was not the same Yang Peng. He only knew that when he and his guards were playing in Cangzhou, they were killed by the Khitan for some unknown reason and turned into a fireball and turned into ashes.
Sometimes it seems like he died in a big fireball.
However, during the entire killing process, he did not feel pain. He only felt as if his soul was out of his body, and as if he was dreaming. When he woke up again, he did not expect that it was already late at night with a sky full of stars, and his body was in severe pain.
Lying in a ravine overgrown with weeds. It took a lot of effort for him to get up. When he looked around by the starlight, he was immediately frightened out of his wits! It turned out that he was sitting on a pile of corpses! Yes, it was just a corpse.
A huge pile of corpses! As far as the eye can see, there are numerous bones everywhere! There are three layers of corpses under him, no less than fifty!
This discovery made his heart beat wildly, as if it was about to jump out of his chest. After finally gathering enough breath, he climbed up the opposite hillside and got into a bush of weeds.
Unable to hold on any longer, he fainted. In a daze, stars were flying in his mind, and all kinds of information were rolling around. In the blink of an eye, it was early morning, and Yang Peng finally woke up again, only to realize that this body turned out to be
Another person! It’s Yang Peng who was saved by his master. Yang Peng seems to have been called Yang Peng before. He just doesn’t know where he is from and who else is in his family. This Yang Peng is not at all
It’s clear. Yang Peng is also a free and easy person. Besides, he also has a very powerful master, so there’s nothing wrong with him.
Fortunately, the North Fangtou where the dead bodies were piled was already full, and there was no way they could wait until spring before they could be disposed of in a unified manner. After hearing what the Khitan people said, the villagers had no choice but to call in a cart to drag out the corpses and throw them away.
They went to Dongshangou to solve the problem. By God's will, another Yang Peng actually came back to life on this corpse. With a strong spirit and tenacious will, Yang Peng finally climbed out of the mass grave.
.However, in the cold winter, with only a torn sack on his body, he could only wait for death.
At the desperate moment when he was calling for help from the sky and the earth, Lin Qing'er, the Holy Mother of the Yellow Lotus, happened to be passing by. Occasionally, he heard a faint shout coming from the pile of rocks, and then she carried him to Tianhua Mountain.
Fairy Cave. Then he tried his best to finally bring Yang Peng back from the brink of death.
After more than half a year of recuperation, Yang Peng finally regained his original energy. After seeking his advice, Our Lady of Huanglian officially accepted him as a disciple and began to teach the secret art of Plum Blossom Boxing. There are no years in the mountains, and four years passed in the blink of an eye. Yang Peng
His three-star stakes and eight-gram stakes are already quite popular, but what he has put the most effort into is master Lin Qing'er's secret skill - plum blossom darts! He has been able to fire three darts at once without missing a beat.
Lin Qing'er was the first person Yang Peng met when he came to this era. Not to mention the skills he later taught him, nor the risk of his own life in order to obtain weapons for him. In terms of saving lives, he was also a reborn parent in the full sense of the word.
Especially during the treatment and recuperation process, Lin Qing'er's motherly nature flourished, and she could be said to be extremely protective of Yang Peng. Because of this, when she heard that her master arranged for her to go down the mountain for training, Yang Peng felt nostalgic and reluctant to let him go.
His heart was broken. He also knew that the reason why the master turned around and left resolutely was because of this feeling of reluctance.
If Yang Peng had not been here, if he did not know what would happen next in the Song Dynasty, he might really have decided to stay with his master. Therefore, when Yang Peng kowtowed to say goodbye to his master, it was completely from the bottom of his heart.
The feeling of gratitude cannot be faked at all. Yang Peng thought about everything over and over again, and finally gritted his teeth: "Don't say anything, it is more serious to try the hand crossbow! Otherwise, when it comes to saving lives, if
If you fail to hit it accurately, you will have failed the master’s expectations!”
After packing up his baggage and going to a sheltered place under the cliff, Yang Peng twisted his hands around the crossbow, took a deep breath, stabilized his mind, raised his right hand and pulled the trigger at the mountain wall fifty meters away.
For the hand crossbow in his hand, Yang Peng felt that he was very familiar with it. Whether it was the mechanical structure or various functions, he could pick it up at his fingertips. But after all, this was the first time he had seen this thing, and the first time he had used it personally.
, I have no confidence at all.
When the hand crossbow in his right hand fired the first burst, he felt his right arm shake violently with a snap, and the entire hand crossbow almost jumped up and fell to the ground. As for the bow and arrow, even he himself
Don't know where it flew to.
"Damn, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry!" Yang Peng cursed, reluctantly put down the hand crossbow in his right hand, and picked up the ten-shot hand crossbow again. He carefully recalled the essentials of the action, and then stood sideways.
Turn your right wrist downward, aim at a small tree trunk about twenty meters in front of you, and pull the trigger.
With a whooshing sound, the small tree trunk shook, and Yang Peng knew that he had hit. With his first success, his confidence finally came back. He aimed at a thumb-sized scar on the trunk and hit the rest of it in one breath.
He fired nine bows and arrows. Then he ran to the small tree and took a look. Seven out of nine!
After replacing the bow and arrow clip, Yang Peng felt the hand crossbow in his hand again, and then he seemed to have returned to his previous life, and his whole spirit was integrated into the gun. This feeling lasted for nearly ten minutes before Yang Peng realized
Pull the trigger with a twig as thick as your little finger.
When the arrow arrives, the branch breaks! "The man and the arrow are integrated into one, like an arm and a finger. This is the key to the crossbow! It seems that this technique is not only applicable to the bows and arrows of later generations!" Yang Peng muttered, with his right hand
It kept shaking and pulling the trigger at the same time. Nine arrows were shot out, and nine small branches fell down!
"Hahaha! Archers are born. This time, they still start from the twenty-meter trunk and end with small branches. By the time he has destroyed the ninety bows and arrows, the small tree is already bare. Because it has been used
Needless to say, Bai Shujie’s left-handed dart skills, coupled with his skills in plum blossom stakes, and his strength and movement skills. Using the ten-shot shell gun with his left hand, the difficulties he faced were not as difficult as he imagined.
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
