The landscapes of Bashu are outstanding in the world.\
Riding all the way up from the Three Gorges. At this time, there is no such thing as "high gorges and flat lakes", it is all natural beauty!
The peaks on both sides of the bank rise continuously, like huge swords pointing into the sky. The Yangtze River is just a stream in the mountains at this time, rushing eastward into the sea, and the figures in it are even more insignificant. The sky is clear. The blue sky is high, and the originally broad river surface reaches this point. When people are in it, they can only see a small piece of sky exposed between the mountains; while the people in the boat hold their breath quietly, for fear of disturbing the boatman. If you are not careful, the boat will be destroyed and people will be killed!
At this point, even if he is as brave as Li Xingzhi, he can't help but marvel at how dangerous and majestic this world is.
At night, the half-moon on the mountain illuminated the river. The sounds of apes on both sides of the bank could not be heard, and from time to time there were howling wolves, tigers, and jackals. The timid ones in the boat were all shivering, and their faces were pale and ugly.
When the boat reaches this point, the road is too narrow, the water is too fast, and the mountain peaks are too dangerous. The mountains and rocks on the edge of the Yanbian River are scattered out, like the teeth of animals cracking. From time to time, large rocks enter the water, making a "Boom! Boom!" sound, and the sound of the water gradually rises to huge waves! At this point, the boat was like a small one in the rolling waves, and it was unknown when it would be swallowed up by the water. At this time, even Li Xingzhi, who was sitting on the side of the boat boldly, was pulled into the cabin by Li Shun. Hearing that the water was pounding the cabin, even the old passengers in the boat looked worried.
The road to Shu has not yet been seen, and it is already in danger!
By this time, when we arrived in Shu, the people in the boat had already changed. The rivers in Shu were full of turbulence, reefs, and huge waves, and there were always waves breaking and turning. Unless you were a regular user of the boat for decades, you couldn't move around.
At this time, looking at the scenery on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, there are only dead pines hanging upside down and rolling rocks like thunder. Occasionally, with a startled glance, I can vaguely see wooden stacks and birds floating between the cliffs, and one or two figures walking on them, which is really frightening.
From the Yangtze River to the Fujiang River, go down to the Jishui River, and stop the boat to disembark the passengers, which is Brazil. Entering from Zhangfeikou, you will find the ancient city standing there.
Li Xingzhi looked at the appearance of the people around him, but they were very different from those in the Central Plains. They were both Han Chinese, and they probably had two beards under their noses. They had calm and peaceful expressions, and walked slowly. Compared with the hinterland of the Central Plains, they were even more beautiful. It seems that peace has lasted for a long time. Although it is not as prosperous as the Central Plains, it is a bit more quiet and rich. People here speak softly and are approachable but not enthusiastic. It makes people feel comfortable when they come and go.
"Brazil is still the same Brazil it was back then!" Li Shun looked at everything around him, not knowing whether he was happy or sad. He booed and sighed, his face full of nostalgia.
Li Linzhi, on the other hand, was walking on the street, looking at all the things around him, curious and startled, "Ah - what a beautiful brocade silk!" As he said this, he pulled Zhou Rou'er's two little daughters to chatter. Don't know what you are talking about.
Li Xingzhi walked over and took a look, and saw a piece of exquisite brocade silk with pairs of auspicious animals and flowing clouds. The colors were bright and rich, soft and gorgeous. Compared with the colors he had seen all the way in the previous few days, there were many more strange and dangerous colors. It's a bit soft and gentle, making people feel comfortable.
The woman from Shu next to her looked at the girl's surprise and praise, her face full of tender joy, "My brocade handkerchief is nothing. If I go to Jinguancheng, it will be an eye-opener for me."
When Li Xingzhi heard what the woman said, he thought of the "Sichuan Brocade". Looking at the ten shops around him, five or six were hung with brocades and lined as cloth shops, and he thought to himself: No wonder it is the "Ancient Country of Silkworms".
The buildings in Shu are built according to the mountains. They are not as regular and grand as those in the flat areas of the Central Plains, but they are a bit more innovative.
Under the leadership of Li Shun, several people entered a large courtyard. The courtyard was only two entrances, and the front courtyard actually occupied half of the area. There were large and bright shelves on both sides, with several large swords and spears on them, and there were many swords. Various instruments were shining coldly.
Shining, obviously not for some people's decorations, Li Xing was stunned when he saw it.
"You monkey, you're finally back! Ever since you were taken away by that bastard, I just thought I'd never see you again in this lifetime." A stout old man in his fifties or sixties with white beard and hair walked out.
Li Shun looked at the old man's bright spirit, rosy skin, and joy on his face, and said excitedly: "Uncle, I'm back!"
The old man looked Li Shun up and down and said, "As expected of me, the son of the Li family!" After speaking, he added, "Where is your father? Is he dead?"
Li Shun looked slightly embarrassed when he heard what the old man said. Although he didn't understand some of the things that happened back then, he knew a little bit about it, otherwise his father wouldn't have gone far to the Western Regions. He only said: "Dad
It's fine, but my body can't travel far, so I just want to come back and have a look."
"If he dares to come back, I will beat him out!" The old man's face turned red and his emotions were agitated.
Li Shun stood there, embarrassed and speechless. When he saw Li Xingzhi, he quickly pulled him over and introduced him: "Uncle, this is the grandson of Uncle Gao from Chang'an. His name is Li Xingzhi." After saying that, he looked at the two girls next to him.
, "These two are my niece-in-law."
The old man looked Li Xingzhi over, frowned slightly, and nodded, with a look of alienation on his face, as if he was not satisfied with his body with so little flesh. He didn't even look at Zhou Rou'er.
When he saw Li Linzhi, he said: "This little girl is pretty good!" Then she said to Li Xingzhi: "You have found a good wife, don't treat her harshly."
After speaking, the old man turned to look at Li Shun and said, "Little monkey, let me see if you have lost your swordsmanship after being away for several years." After saying this, without waiting for Li Shun to shirk, he took down a sword from the wooden stand next to him.
The long sword without edge is held in the hand.
"Uncle, I..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the old man, "What are you doing?"
Li Shun immediately grabbed a long sword and held it in his hand, and took a stance, showing his power. He had traveled all over the country for so many years, and naturally he had not forgotten the guy who was eating in his hand.
"Okay! Look at my sword!"
Zhou Rou'er watched the two people in the middle going back and forth, fighting each other from time to time, with cold light flashing, and her heart felt chilly, and her hands holding Li Xingzhi's clothes were sweating. But Li Linzhi was excited to see it next to her, as if she was looking for someone again.
It brought back the feeling of wandering around the world with her grandfather. However, after Li Xingzhi taught her the true method of inner strength, her face turned red when she saw these flawless swordsmanship, and she wanted to rush forward to give some advice.
Li Xingzhi saw how lively the scene was. He could kill thirty or fifty thieves with one sword strike, and he secretly cheered in his heart. His own kung fu couldn't be compared. But the old man asked Li Xingzhi to
It's quite shocking. After all, in this era, most people become weak and weak when they reach their fifties or sixties. It is rare to survive past the age of seventy. How can this man still wield a sword?
"Clang!" There was a crisp metal sound, and the two men stood with swords in hand.
"Haha, I am still the little monkey I was back then!" He said this as if he would not recognize his nephew Li Shun if his sword skills were not good enough.
That night, Li Xingzhi and others stayed in the house.
At night, in Brazil City, among the tall mansions, a skinny, lifeless young man with a pale face sat in the small hall. Under the dim light of the night, he looked like an evil ghost. He looked at a person underground and said: "Today we can
What good stuff did you find?"
"The villain has seen two beautiful faces, but -" There seemed to be hesitation in his words, but there was a hint of treachery on his face hidden in the dark.
"But what?"
"Those two guests have something to do with that old ghost Li Jing," the man explained quickly as if he was afraid that the young man wouldn't understand: "When Li Jing was young, he used a long sword to create quite a reputation in the land of Bashu.
I have also made friends with many swordsmen and mountaineers, and I am very capable."
"How is it better than my dad?"
"How can a common man in the world compare with the city lord?"
"In that case, you call Damahou's disciple and go and take care of the matter for me." As he said this, the young man with a pale face and sunken eyes, who looked like an evil ghost, put his hand on a woman next to him.
The person sitting down bowed and stepped away, but there was disdain in his eyes; the moonlight faintly illuminated a scarlet mark. The man touched the scar on his face and chuckled, like a ghost owl screaming at night.
That young man was the only son of the lord of Brazil City. He was addicted to alcohol, recruited minions, and specialized in collecting the wives and daughters of passing merchants for fun.
After all, the land of Bashu is not the Central Plains. The terrain is remote and dangerous. The city lords stand in front of the city inside and are granted titles by the imperial court outside. They are all local emperors.
The next day, it was misty and rainy. Li Xingzhi and others had already admired the green mountains of the ancient city, but they couldn't wait. Facing the refreshing rain, under the leadership of one or two slaves, they walked on the cold bluestone slabs and visited the ancient city.
My mind is pounding.
This is a real ancient city, not one of those "man-made" ancient towns of later generations. There are billions of people in later generations, but I am afraid that only Li Xingzhi will be so lucky. Li Xingzhi's heart.
The road turned and the rain became heavier. He opened his paper umbrella. If it weren't for the majestic mountains, Li Xingzhi would have thought he was on Jiangnan Road...
Things in this world don't make people proud. Even God would be jealous of Li Xingzhi being so leisurely and unrestrained. Just when a few people were in a good mood, suddenly, they were blocked by several people in front and behind the road.
Li Renjia, who was leading a few people on a tour to enjoy the scenery, saw something unkind and put his hand on his sword, "Everyone, what's the matter? This is my master, Li Jing and Li Dalang..." He was about to mention his master's name, but
I don’t want to be interrupted by someone’s words——
"Li Jing? It's your Li family that I'm looking for today." A big man with a scarred face shouted. His ferocious look was revealed, as if he had some big grudge against the Li family. He didn't notice the few days at all.
He just looked at the two women standing in the crowd and said with a ferocious smile: "This is the person A Lang wants."
Li Renjia and several people next to him drew out their swords, and he said softly to Li Xingzhi: "The person who came here is not good. I'm looking for an opportunity to run away on my own. Go and tell the master about this."
Li Xingzhi didn't answer, but stood aside and watched the changes. He was somewhat interested in the sword skills of Li Renjia and others. From the looks of it, they had obviously seen blood. But Li Linzhi eagerly tried it.
"Want to leave?" A hunched-over, thin young man walked out from behind a few people, his steps were nimble, like a mountain ape.
"Ape shape? Who are you, the big horse monkey?" Li Renjia asked in shock.
"He is my master."
This person is called ‘Ma Xiaohou’, and he is the disciple of Big Horse Monkey.
When Li Renjia heard this, his face turned pale, and he thought that he was afraid that there would be no luck again today. But in his heart, he was worried about his family, and he didn't know who was planning to deal with his Li family. He didn't say much at the moment, nodded to a few people, and kept to himself.
In the front, Li Xingzhi was alone, while the others held up their swords, grabbed Li Xingzhi, and rushed back.
The soldiers clashed with each other, the metal squeaked loudly, and under the shock of the long sword, within a moment, the first few people on the other side covered their right hands and arms and stepped back. The clothes on their right arms were splashed with blood, and they were bright red!
"waste!"
Ma Xiaohou cursed and jumped forward. The Li family's swords were so fierce that the young man couldn't get close for a moment. They jumped left and right, really like monkeys, so that the sword edge could not reach them.
Li Xingzhi watched several people fighting, and the horse and monkey jumped up and down, very nimble, and had more energy to spare; while several people from the Li family drew their swords very quickly, and every time they shot out their swords, they struck with all their strength, and their backs were already sweating.
, afraid it won’t last long.
Ma Xiaohou couldn't hold on for a long time, and couldn't help but feel upset. Several people found the leak, and slashed his clothes with a sword. He turned around and dodged the next few swords. He was in a panic. He was shocked and angry at the moment, "Okay.
Li Jing, a Qingfeng Swordman, is really extraordinary. Today I will teach you how to try my technique of 'The Monkey Calls the King'."
After finishing speaking, Ma Xiaohou lowered his back, grinned, and bared his teeth, like an angry monkey, which was actually quite similar. He bent his feet, bounced, and with a strong wind, he had bullied several people.
; The monkey's hand pinched the blade of the sword, and with a strong shake, the two long swords clinked to the ground. Then, following the same pattern, the remaining green blade fell, leaving only three people with empty hands and pale faces, standing on the spot.
Li Renjia on the other side was also in an extremely urgent situation. If it hadn't been for the scarred man playing with the cat and the mouse, he would have been dead by now.
Ma Xiaohou was baring his teeth and showing off his power. Suddenly, there was a sound of wind, and a long whip made a sound of breaking through the air, and was whipped towards his face, leaving him nowhere to dodge and could only retreat continuously. At this time, a girl in red held a weapon in her hand.
A long whip appeared from behind several people.
When Ma Xiaohou saw Li Linzhi, he was so angry that he had an ugly smile on his face, "She turns out to be a little beauty. I like you like this. When the young city lord doesn't want you anymore, I will ask you to come over."
,how?"
"Oh? I like you too." The girl had a bright smile on her face. After imitating the matchmaker's words, Li Xingzhi screamed for the monkey.
Ma Xiaohou listened to what the girl said and thought that she really meant something. He was about to say something. Suddenly he felt a chill in his body. He felt that there was a huge threat coming. When he was about to hide, a pain went straight into his bone marrow, but he found that he didn't know what was going on.
At that moment, the girl held a long whip and hit him silently.
It was the ‘shadowless whip’ that Li Xingzhi taught her!
