Chapter 54 It’s late and it’s snowing. Can I have a drink?
The clouds were overcast and it was snowing heavily.
There is a cold wind as sharp as a knife.
A group of four horses galloped in the wind and snow. Although it was freezing cold, the four people's clothes were still thin. Lao Jianghu could tell at a glance that these were outsiders.
When dusk fell, the four of them finally stopped at a mountain temple to rest.
The mountain temple is still very tidy. It seems that someone has been taking care of and cleaning it. But there is no one at this time.
Wang Heming was responsible for lighting the fire, and took the prepared dry food and clean water from the horse's back to heat it. Pang Shishi took out a few beef hams from the leather bag on the horse's back, skewered them with thin wooden branches and grilled them on the fire. It didn't take a moment.
A dinner that was simple but not too shabby was done.
Lin Yongpeng looked at the heavy snow falling outside the temple and said: "It's snowing tonight, can you have a drink?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "It's probably late and it's already snowing, so I should have a drink!"
Lin Yongpeng said: "It's a pity that I want to drink but I don't have any!"
Pang Shishi smiled and said, "My eldest brother does!" As he said that, he pulled out two cowhide wine bags and four small wine glasses from a saddle on the horse's back, and said, "If the wine is not enough, there is still more." Lin Yongpeng asked.
"How many wine glasses are there?" Pang Shishi said: "Exactly ten, just enough for a table!" Lin Yongpeng said: "Where is the wine?" Pang Shishi said: "Four bags, eight pounds!"
Lin Yongpeng said: "I consider myself to be a good drinker, but I can't believe that I'm not as good as Brother Feng. You actually drink wine even when traveling long distances!"
Feng Jiuxiao smiled, "I'm just a drunkard."
Lin Yongpeng said: "Li Bai wrote hundreds of poems about wine, which shows that wine is a good thing!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Of course!"
The wind has stopped outside the temple, but the snow has not stopped.
Four people in the temple gathered around the fire, drinking heavily!
Feng Jiuxiao suddenly said: "Someone is coming."
The other three people didn't hear any sound. They knew that Feng Jiuxiao's ears were amazing and must be accurate. Pang Shishi said: "Brother, are the people who came here in the middle of the snowy night just to take shelter from the wind and snow?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "It's not like that. The sound of their footsteps was obviously deliberately lowered."
Pang Shishi said: "It seems there will be something good tonight."
Wang Heming said: "They must be coming for us."
Lin Yongpeng said: "Nine times out of ten, it is the Shangguan Tiannan you mentioned who is determined to change his mind!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "It's strange, these people who have come here have average martial arts skills. Letting these people deal with Brother Lin is like asking for death. They are coming soon. Let's wait and see what happens! Come on, let's finish the wine in the cup!"
"Dry!"
"Dry!"
"Dry!"
The four of them drank the wine at the same time. Pang Shiwu cleaned the wine vessels and put them back into the basket. The four of them still sat around the fire, stretching out their hands to keep warm. In fact, the four of them were strong and not afraid of the cold at all. It was just a matter of habit.
After a while, everyone heard the sound of footsteps. There were about seven or eight people, and their martial arts skills were indeed average.
Lin Yongpeng said softly: "Is it a bandit?"
Wang Heming said: "It's possible!"
The temple door was suddenly knocked open, and eight big men filed in. Each of them was holding a ghost-headed sword, showing their fierce appearance!
Feng Jiuxiao knew that these were pawns who had been deceived to die, so she was not in a hurry to kill these cannon fodder. She just wanted to see if there would be good things to come.
Lin Yongpeng also guessed that these were all aimed at him. With a peerless master like Feng Jiuxiao by his side, he was even more confident.
Eight big men blocked the door. One of them seemed to be the leader. He took a step forward and said sternly: "Who is Lin Yongpeng?" Lin Yongpeng said calmly: "I am!" The big man saw that although he was dressed as a civilian, he was exuding "
The domineering general's commanding attitude and determination made him more certain that the person in front of him was the target. The leading man said solemnly: "Please come with us!"
Wang Heming frowned and said: "Don't you have any brains? Do you know who you are talking to? Do you believe that you will be rectified on the spot?"
The leading man suddenly raised his head and laughed, and then suddenly changed his face and said: "Then do you know who you are talking to? Do you believe that I will kill you all? If the village leader hadn't ordered that the surnamed Lin be captured alive, we would have chopped you into pieces long ago.
Meaty!"
Pang Shiwu asked: "Then who are you?"
The leading man said proudly: "Have you ever heard of Black Wind Village?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "It turns out he is from the old demon of Black Mountain."
Lin Yongpeng said: "I have lived in the army and temples for a long time. I don't know the strange people and strange things in the world, so I ask my dear brother to clarify my doubts."
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Now there are five sects, Thirty-Six Peaks, Seventy-two Villages and other large and small gangs gathered in Taihang Mountain. Among them, Black Wind Village is one of the Seventy-two Villages in Taihang. They call themselves Green Forest Heroes, but they are actually bandits and robbers.
However, firstly, the terrain of the Taihang Mountains is very dangerous and difficult to attack. Every time the government troops mobilized troops, they returned with no success, and in the end they were inactive in suppressing the bandits. Secondly, the various mountain villages worked together but claimed to be in the same spirit. It was difficult for one side to support them from all sides.
, the current strength of the local government and army is no longer enough to exterminate them, so banditry is becoming increasingly rampant!"
Lin Yongpeng frowned and said solemnly: "It's strange, isn't the General in charge of the Northwest? Isn't it possible that even he is helpless?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Actually, I don't think it's surprising. Although General Lian controls Sichuan, Shaanxi, Shanxi and other places, the main force of the army is still guarding the borders. Therefore, the comparison of the strength of one city and one pool is likely to be at a disadvantage, but these bandits and robbers have occupied
If even the generals focus on suppressing the bandits, they will still be no match for the foreign cavalry from the Western Regions!"
Lin Yongpeng said: "It seems that a loophole was taken advantage of."
Feng Jiuxiao said: "In fact, it is not difficult to destroy them. In ancient times, two peaches killed three people. If we can make these bandits and robbers kill each other, wouldn't we reap the benefits?"
Lin Yongpeng said: "The key is what can impress these people who are ignorant of etiquette and shamelessness and make them kill each other? According to the current situation, there must be someone behind the scenes to give them some advice, so that they can form a situation where they are not in conflict with each other.
It's like Lian Heng during the Warring States Period! If it's just a simple method of using money to induce him, I'm afraid it won't work!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Since they have Lianheng, let's use Hezong!"
The two of them looked at the eight big men as if they were nothing. The leading man couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry, and cursed: "Two birdmen, stop fucking with each other! Hurry up and capture them!" After that, he shouted at the people behind him.
With a glance, several tough men actually took out their chains and tried to pull them on Lin Yongpeng!
Feng Jiuxiao suddenly said softly: "We are the guests invited by Mr. Lian!"
Those big men seemed to be under magic, and their feet immediately froze! Everyone looked at each other, and then looked at the leading man at the same time!
The leading man squinted his eyes and looked Feng Jiuxiao up and down. Although he had many doubts in his heart, he would never dare to act rashly until he was not completely sure that what the boy in white said was false! The officers and soldiers could not stand them, but they were not the same as Lianchengban.
He can't stop them! Another awesome thing about Liancheng is that if he goes up the mountain to cause trouble for any of the mountain villages, the other mountain villages will not only not stop him, but will even take the lead on Liancheng's behalf! It is said that the entire Thirty-six Peaks and Seventy-two Villages are the masters.
There is a high probability that Zi has a friendship with Liancheng! Either he himself has been saved by him, or his relatives and friends have been saved by him. Of course, there are also people who have been taught by Mr. Lian. They dare not be presumptuous! In any case,
The whole land of Sanqin is divided into black and white, and whoever dares to speak ill of Mr. Lian is the public enemy of the entire martial arts world!
The leading man said: "How do I know whether what you say is true or false? There are countless people pretending to be Mr. Lian's relatives and friends here every day and cheating!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "This place should not be far from Tongtian Gorge. Just say that someone with the surname Feng from Hengyang City is here, and they will naturally know it. Head Yuan of the Taihang Sect in Tongtian Gorge is the uncle of Young Master Lian. You must not have this relationship."
Don’t you know?”
The leading man snorted coldly, "This place is still more than a hundred miles away from Tongtian Gorge. It's freezing cold and the road is slippery. It would take three hours to go back and forth even if you ride a horse quickly. Who has the time to spare? You're like a tiger's skin."
Raise the flag! Brothers, step up!"
Feng Jiuxiao glanced at Pang Shishi helplessly. How could Pang Shishi miss such an excellent opportunity to practice his skills? He knocked down a big man at the front with one punch, and rushed into the crowd without stopping for a few steps.
Knock down all the other big men with seven punches!
Almost in the blink of an eye, all eight big men were lying on the ground in a mess.
The force of each punch is enough to crack a stone!
Every punch broke a rib!
Every big man lay on the ground and moaned!
Lin Yongpeng couldn't help but cheer: "Good work!"
Just when Wang Heming was about to take action, he saw all eight of them fall down before he could take action. He couldn't help but admire Pang Shiwu's martial arts!
Pang Shiwu clenched his fists and said to Feng Jiuxiao: "Who else would it be if I could not move forward now? The unyielding fist intention has begun to take shape, but it is a pity that the fist intention cannot be retracted and released freely!" This was his habitual conclusion, and it was also
Waiting for Feng Jiuxiao's opinion.
Feng Jiuxiao only said: "A child can be taught."
Looking at the pile lying on the ground, Lin Yongpeng said with disgust: "How to deal with it? It's really useless!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Their life or death is not important. What is important is that the fight between you and them is a lose-lose situation. Even if you successfully pass their level, you are very likely to be seriously injured. By then, you will only die in the next level."
I'm afraid that death is not far away. When the time comes, the court will receive news that General Lin was killed by bandits at the foot of the Taihang Mountains, and then the most they can do is send troops to suppress the bandits. The result will be another deadlock, and in the end it will definitely end!"
Lin Yongpeng said: "That makes sense. Does that mean that as long as I don't die, there will always be robbers coming to harass me?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "So if we want to calm down the situation behind us, the eight people here must cooperate to do one thing and report to their master that General Lin has been eliminated."
He knelt down and began to search their bodies, starting with the big man in the lead. Sure enough, he found red, yellow and blue signal fireworks!
He said to the leading man: "Tell me what these fireworks represent!" He gently patted the leading man on the shoulder, and a stream of true energy seeped into the man's meridians, "If you don't tell the truth, I will make you miserable.
Die!" The leading man felt his body was itching like thousands of ants biting him. He shouted: "If you have the guts, give me a good one! What kind of guy can you be if you use such despicable methods?"
Pang Shishi was a little angry, and said with a surprised look on his face: "Oh my gosh, you are awesome, you still think you are a hero? You can't resist a fucking punch and you dare to scream?"
The leading man began to tremble. He wanted to struggle but was unable to do so. He became more and more uncomfortable. He made a roaring sound like a trapped beast struggling to its death. The inner strength of the young man in white was as continuous as the water of the Yangtze River. Not only
There is no trace of exhaustion, but it is getting stronger and stronger! The numbness and itchiness are becoming more and more unbearable!
With Feng Jiuxiao's skill, even the eight masters couldn't withstand it, let alone a third-level boss with mediocre martial arts?
After a moment, he gave up the resistance and said repeatedly: "Red means capture alive, yellow means kill, and blue means escape!"
Feng Jiuxiao asked: "What happens after the signal is sent out?" The energy in his hands calmed down slightly.
The leading man finally took a breath and said sharply: "Whether they are captured alive or killed, they will wait at the foot of the mountain to see people dead or corpses. If they run away, they will continue to set up an ambush at the next pass!"
Feng Jiuxiao said with sympathy on her face: "Don't you know they asked you to come here to die?"
The leading man said in confusion: "How do you say this?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Who guarded your last level?"
The leading man said: "Shangguan Tiannan! What's wrong?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Didn't he say anything to you?"
The leading man said: "He passed on the news that when he arrived at the ambush point, he found that the target should have been missed! In other words, he didn't stop anyone at all!"
Feng Jiuxiao and Lin Yongpeng looked at each other, understanding each other tacitly.
Shangguan Tiannan is indeed cunning. This way, his reputation has not been damaged. However, when people in the second level see Lin and Feng, they must be swords and swords. How can there be a chance to check whether Shangguan Tiannan's words are true or false?
Therefore, the "boss" probably didn't know that Lin Yongpeng had Feng Jiuxiao beside him, so he thought that with the skills of eight third-level small bosses, he couldn't catch him? Although Lin Yongpeng is powerful, what he is best at is the military ability of commanding thousands of troops, even if
His martial arts skills are nothing compared to ordinary arrogant soldiers. If he meets a martial arts master, he will be easily captured!
Feng Jiuxiao used the method of transmitting sounds into secrets to Lin Yongpeng and said: "It is better to kill seven people and let him cut off the heads of three people to receive the merit!"
Lin Yongpeng didn't know how to transmit messages into secrets, so he nodded, and then said: "Heming, except for the leader, kill them all!" He stabbed two people to death with two swords, and Wang Heming did not hesitate to raise his sword and kill him.
One person, if Feng Jiuxiao didn't take action when he saw this, it would appear that he had a scheming intention, and he would pierce one person's eyebrows with one finger. When Pang Shishi saw Feng Jiuxiao, he immediately smashed their skulls with two punches. The last person, the seventh person, was quite unlucky, and was killed by Pang Shishi.
Shi Fifteen cracked his temple with one punch, and at the same time his head was cut off by Wang Heming's knife. He was so dead that he couldn't die anymore!
The leading man was horrified when he saw seven of his companions being killed in an instant! He had never been merciless when killing others, but now that he saw the other party killing his companions with the force of crushing ants, the last bit of courage was gone. He looked pale.
, with a trembling voice: "Hero, spare your life!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "I will definitely spare you, but I don't know if you can be a good person?"
The leading man hurriedly said: "A good man says it clearly, there is nothing he can do!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "You took two heads. It doesn't matter if they are badly scratched. It's better to burn them with fire. In short, everyone will think that you have made a great contribution! General Lin and his party fought with you in the mountain temple. Both sides suffered heavy casualties.
, almost died together in the end, but you were lucky enough to survive, and you carried their heads down the mountain!"
Pang Shishi said: "It doesn't matter if you change your mind when we get to the bottom of the mountain. We will kill one of us, ten of us, at most we will delay it for a few more days!" He looked at the leading man and said helplessly: "Although my eldest brother is very arrogant.
Very, it doesn’t matter anything, but I can’t, I will definitely kill you first! No matter where I am, I can’t sleep or eat well if I can’t kill you!” Lin Yongpeng really didn’t expect that even at such a young age, Pang Fifteen was full of murderous intent!
There are great people every year, but there are especially many this year!
Let the leading man stand up and pick two heads! The leading man had just escaped from death, and he took out his sword and chopped off two heads before walking out.
When Feng Jiuxiao saw that the leading man was about to step out of the temple gate, he suddenly said: "Wait a moment!" The leading man was shocked, thinking that they had regretted and wanted to kill him to silence him. When he turned around, he couldn't help but open his mouth and let out an "ah", not expecting Yiwu to happen.
As soon as it popped into my mouth, my throat tightened, and the pill-like thing had been swallowed!
Guo heard the young man in white say: "Don't leave in a hurry. You light a fire and burn the temple down. Then chop off these two heads until they are unrecognizable. When the fire gets bigger, you immediately set off fireworks and go down the mountain! You
There is no need to wait for my brother to hunt you to the ends of the earth. You have already been hit by my Corpse Transformation Pill. A year later, you come to Hengyang City to find me to get the antidote. If you do not take the antidote within a year, your muscles will gradually become rigid until your whole body becomes as stiff as a corpse and you will die.
!”
The leading man quickly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, chopped off the head on his hand until it was completely unrecognizable, and then went out and set off fireworks and arrows. A huge and gorgeous yellow firework in the shape of a long knife suddenly bloomed in the blue night sky!
The people at the foot of the mountain were waiting eagerly, already impatiently waiting, when suddenly they saw yellow knife-shaped fireworks exploding in the sky above the mountain temple. They all looked up to the sky and cheered loudly!
One of them happily looked at the dark clouds drifting in the distance, and blurted out: "It's snowing tonight, can you have a drink?"
