Chapter 24: Love Rivals or Robbers(1/2)
After practicing mystical arts as usual last night, Tang Jiusheng was lying down with his clothes on. In the middle of the night, he got a fever and started talking nonsense. This frightened the two girls. They hurriedly called the doctor in the town overnight. The doctor took his pulse and shook his head.
He refuses to prescribe medicine because this is not an ordinary disease and cannot be cured by medicine or stone.
At this time, Tang Jiu Sheng's body's Qi was turbulent and his meridians were seriously damaged. Shui Ruyue and Ximen Yushuang were helpless and were so anxious that they didn't know what to do.
Later, Shui Ruyue took the risk of injecting the Xuan Bing Qi she had practiced into Tang Jiusheng's body and forcibly helped him cool down. Tang Jiusheng got slightly better. When he got up in the morning, Shui Ruyue fed Tang Jiusheng some porridge. After Tang Jiusheng finished the porridge, he told Shui Ruyue that no need
I was too worried. After more than half a month, I should be fine. After that, I fell asleep again.
The single escort accepted by the Fushun Escort Bureau was for half a month, and now ten days have passed. If you want to reach Huzhou Prefecture within five days, you can't delay any more on the way. Tang Jiu Sheng's condition cannot be cured by resting in bed.
So Shui Ruyue simply spent five taels of silver to hire a carriage in the town, carried the sleeping Tang Jiusheng into the carriage, and rushed to Huzhou Prefecture with the escort team.
Shui Ruyue rode a horse and led the Lingnan duo to guard and protect him outside the carriage. Ximen Yushuang stayed in the carriage to take care of Tang Jiusheng. Tang Jiusheng, who was sleeping drowsily in the carriage, felt someone stroking his hair in a hazy state.
The pale Tang Jiusheng slowly opened his eyes, and it turned out that it was Ximen Yushuang looking at him with concern.
Seeing Tang Jiusheng wake up, Ximen Yushuang was overjoyed. She bent over and picked up Tang Jiusheng and placed it on her lap. She lowered her head and kissed his left cheek gently. Tang Jiusheng struggled to turn his right cheek and said with a forced smile,
"Hey, there's also this side."
Ximen Yushuang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Oh, this person is really fooling around. He's still in the mood to joke after all this!" But she obediently kissed him on his right cheek. Only then did Tang Jiusheng smile with satisfaction and said weakly, "Well
, it’s really, really good, my wife smells so good.”
Ximen Yushuang blushed, shook her head and said: "Why does it still smell good? You haven't taken a shower for four or five days." Tang Jiusheng was about to speak, but couldn't help but cough. Ximen Yushuang panicked and patted him on the back. Tang Jiusheng breathed for a while, and then continued intermittently.
He said: "Daughter-in-law, you, you really smell good. I smelled it from the first time you drew your sword and chopped me."
Ximen Yushuang's face turned red, and the snow-white catkins slowly caressed Tang Jiusheng's face, "Ms. sir, you'd better have a good rest, stop talking for now, keep your sweet words, and tell me every day when you feel better.
,I, I like it very much.”
Tang Jiusheng gasped and said with a smile: "Okay, I listen to my little wife, eh? Where is my eldest wife?" Ximen Yushuang hugged Tang Jiusheng tighter and said softly, "She has better martial arts than me.
I’m responsible for protecting you outside the car, and when you get better, you can protect the two of us, okay?”
Tang Jiusheng smiled with difficulty and nodded: "Okay, little wife, my husband will listen to you today." After saying this, he fell asleep again. Ximen Yushuang lowered her head, kissed his forehead, and murmured.
: "Mr. sir, you should get well soon and don't make us worry."
Dozens of miles away from Tianchang Town, there is a forest of black pine trees on the side of the official road to Huzhou. When the sun was about to set in the west, thirteen men in black clothes emerged from the pine forest, varying in height, fat and thin, carrying knives, guns and sticks.
He was planting weapons and looking towards the direction of Tianchang Town, as if he was waiting for someone.
A short and thin man holding a knife was probably a little impatient. He walked to the front and asked the man standing at the front holding a silver gun: "Han Laosan, is this news accurate? Are you sure they will?"
Take the official route?"
The man named Han Laosan, who was holding a silver gun, nodded in affirmation, "The news from Qiankun Hall is this. This escort team has been following the official path. There is nothing wrong. Just wait patiently."
The short and thin man cursed fiercely: "Damn it, if they don't take this official road, I will never finish with you. I have to wait here for a whole day. There are so many mosquitoes in this forest.
I was almost eaten by mosquitoes."
A man carrying a hammer laughed and said, "Ma Lao Wu, stop yelling. The little meat you have is not worth three to five kilograms if you cut it off. Mosquitoes bite you and it hurts your teeth!" The masked man in black said
They laughed together.
Ma Laowu turned around and said fiercely, "Zhao Tiedan, what I have to say is none of your business, so stop talking nonsense with me! I will catch those beautiful ladies soon, and I will have to pick one of them first. I'm feeling miserable right now."
.As promised, no one is allowed to rob it from me!"
Zhao Tiedan, who was carrying the hammer, smiled and said, "Ma Laowu, you are so worthless, you have snatched the gold and silver treasures, and you still worry about not having a woman? The courtesans in the brothel are more beautiful than the other, and they are so charming."
Putting aside the anger, the ditty he sang was nice and he was alive and well. The women he snatched either resisted or died, so what's the point of playing?"
Ma Laowu rolled his eyes and cursed: "Fuck you, go home and play with the little pig girl in your pig pen. The one who sings the song is better, just hum while you play."
Zhao Tiedan smiled obscenely and said: "Look, look, I'm just saying that this guy Ma Laowu has played with sows in pig pens. From what he said, he is quite experienced. He hums every time he plays.
It’s all summed up.” All the men in black were laughing. Ma Laowu came over angrily and wanted to kick Zhao Tiedan, but Zhao Tiedan ran away with a smile while carrying the hammer.
At this moment, I saw a group of people walking slowly towards the black pine forest on the official road. I could vaguely see the escort flag of "Fushun" on the car. The leader, Han Laosan, quickly turned around and shouted, "Stop it.
Copycat guys, they’re coming!”
The two escorts from the Fushun Escort Bureau were clearing the way ahead. They saw a black pine forest ahead and felt a little nervous. The sun was already in the west and it would get dark soon. Escorts are most likely to get into trouble at night.
The escort quickly shouted to the escort: "Fushun Escort Bureau, please help all directions, friends from all over the world can lend me a favor! Fushun Escort Bureau, please help all directions, friends from all directions can lend me a favor!"
In half a cup of tea, the escort team had already reached the edge of the black pine forest. Only a few dozen steps away, there were a dozen men with weapons blocking the official road. The two guards responsible for opening the road turned their hands.
It’s over, I ran into someone who was robbed again. I cursed in my heart, what kind of bird dart did the escort agency pick up this time? How many times have I been robbed along the way?!
One of the escorts went back to find Wen Tianlong, and the other escort quickly called out to the escort, "Fushun Escort Bureau, smooth communication in all directions,
Friends from all over the world lend me a hand!" If the other party hears the name of the escort agency and has some friendship with the escort agency in the past, then you can spend some money to buy a road. It is better to spend money to eliminate disasters than to draw a knife and risk your life!
Wen Tianlong, the deputy chief escort, received the report from the escort, and his heart trembled a few times. He thought that this escort was really difficult, so he quickly urged his horse to the front and stopped the advancing escort team. At this time, Wen Tianlong
We were only a dozen steps away from this group of robbers. I counted in my mind that there were thirteen people on the opposite side, but I didn't know if there were any ambushes in the black pine forest.
The leader of the robbers, Han Laosan, stood in the middle of the road with a silver gun and a big golden sword, "I planted this tree and opened this road. If you want to live this life, leave money to buy the road!"
Ma Laowu said disdainfully from behind: "It's so damn vulgar. How old are you? You're robbing someone and you're still talking nonsense. Just go up and grab it. If you don't give it to us, we'll chop it down. Isn't that enough?"
Wen Tianlong turned over and dismounted, with a smile on his face, and bowed his hands, "Dear friends, thank you for your hard work. I am Wen Tianlong, the deputy chief of the Fushun Escort Bureau in Nanyanzhou. Today the escort passed by your place. I don't know where the Duozi Kiln with the Chinese character "He" is.
, so I was unable to submit a post to worship the mountain. Mr. Wen is here to apologize to all the heroes."
Han Laosan smiled coldly: "Is it the Fushun Escort Agency in Nanyanzhou? Huh, if your big boss Yu Desheng or the chief escort chief Ji Wushuang personally escorts the escort, I might give him three points of face. As for your last name,
Mr. Wen, head escort, I'm very sorry. I've never heard of a person like you on the road. Hand over the escort immediately and spare your life."
Wen Tianlong's black face turned purple with anger. As the saying goes, you don't hit someone in the face, but this face makes people slap! Before Wen Tianlong could say anything, Ma Laowu behind Han Laosan was carrying a knife.
Jumping forward, "Wen, even if you send the bodyguard here for free, I won't take it, because I want to rob it today!"
Is it tolerable or intolerable? Wen Tianlong looked angry and said in a cold voice, "Very good, those who work in the green forest must have a name. People don't leave their names, and they don't know who they are, so I'll trouble you all to sign up..."
Han Laosan smiled and said: "Friends in the martial arts community gave me the nickname 'Rampaging Ten States'. I am ranked third, and I am known as Han Laosan."
Just as Wen Tianlong was about to speak, a sneer from Shui Ruyue came from behind him, "What about 'Traveling across Ten States' Han Laosan? I'm sorry, aunt, I have never heard of such a person in the world."
As Shui Ruyue spoke, she had already reached the front of the line. When she saw Ma Laowu opposite, she was a very beautiful girl. All the bones in her body were a few kilograms lighter. She said with a mean smile: "Oh my, this girl looks so good."
, no one is allowed to snatch this girl from me in a while!”
Shui Ruyue spat on Ma Laowu, then turned around and smiled slightly at Wen Tianlong, "Head Wen, how can you kill a chicken with a sledgehammer? They are just a few thieves, leave it to me to deal with them."
Wen Tianlong had seen Shui Ruyue's methods, which were much higher than his own. If Shui Ruyue couldn't beat him, he definitely couldn't beat him, so he nodded and smiled and said: "Then Miss Shui, you must be more careful. I'll help you from behind."
You rush into the formation to cheer me up."
Shui Ruyue looked at the other side, her face covered with frost, "I have a sword, you try it, who can take the next step?"
Ma Lao Wu took two steps forward and said with a mean smile: "Little beautiful girl, Master Ma Wu is willing to take it, but Master Ma Wu also has a sword, I wonder if you can take it, little beautiful girl?"
Seeing his frivolous and shameless words, Shui Ruyue sneered, and suddenly pulled out the sword from the scabbard. She raised her hand and used her special skill of splitting the ground. In an instant, the sword energy was flowing freely, and the ground was instantly split into cracks dozens of feet long.
The dust was flying, and the noise was truly terrifying.
Wen Tianlong stood behind and raised his thumb secretly. This hand was really strong, how could it scare these robbers to death?
Strangely, there was no change in the faces of the robbers opposite, and Ma Laowu was even more proud, "Little beauty, we already know about your ground-breaking move. It looks scary, but the actual power is not that great."
, in less than half an hour, the ground will close by itself. Do you have any new tricks that you can use for Master Ma Wu to see?"
Shui Ruyue couldn't help being surprised. This Earth-shattering move was indeed terrifying, but not very powerful. She learned it from her mistress at the time, and it was specifically used to scare people. How could these people know that?!
However, Shui Ruyue did not show any surprise on her face. Instead, she said calmly, "Okay, then you can take a look at my aunt's other sword." After she finished speaking, she held out a sword forward like lightning.
, cut off Ma Laowu's left ear.
Ma Laowu felt his eyes blurred. He lowered his head and saw that his ears had fallen to the ground, and then he realized, "Oh shit, this girl is so fucking cruel!" Ma Laowu covered his bleeding wound and fell to the ground in pain.
Jumping around, he turned around and cursed loudly: "My ancestor, Lu Jinqi, didn't you say that you can deal with this little girl's sword skills?"
A long, dog-like man came over with a sword in hand, kicked Ma Lao Wu aside, and said pitifully: "Ma Lao Wu, you useless trash, you dare to leave that place if you don't have the ability."
The girl is so close? You found this yourself, what does it have to do with you, Uncle Lu?"
Ma Laowu was naturally no match for Lu Jinqi. He could only jump to the side and yell, "You son of a bitch, you promised us that you would take action against this little girl. You have no credibility..."
Lu Jinqi said coldly: "Ma, if you dare to fart again, I will kill your head with this sword!"
Ma Laowu froze there, covering the wound, not daring to speak anymore, but the eyes he looked at Lu Jinqi were so vicious that he must have wanted to eat Lu Jinqi. Han Laosan quickly took out the knife wound medicine and applied it on Ma Laowu
, then bandaged the wound, and the robbers were busy doing it.
When Shui Ruyue saw Lu Jinqi walking over with a sword, she sneered: "Lu, aren't you also a waste?"
This man named Lu Jinqi was the senior student of Tang Jiu Sheng and Shui Ru Yue at He Yue Academy. Two years ago, he pursued Shui Ru Yue crazily and failed. He angrily challenged Tang Jiu Sheng to a duel, but was defeated by Tang Jiu Sheng with two moves. He left He Yue Academy with hatred and vowed to
He wanted to take revenge on Shui Ruyue and Tang Jiusheng. He practiced martial arts diligently and finally found the opportunity to take revenge today.
Lu Jinqi laughed loudly and said: "You bitch named Shui, don't look down on me. You should look at me with admiration after three days of separation. I am here today to take Tang Jiu Sheng's life and let you
I know you were blind to reject me!"
Shui Ruyue smiled slightly and deliberately provoked him: "A person like you is not worthy of carrying my husband's shoes!"
Lu Jinqi looked up to the sky and laughed, "Hahahahaha, I don't know where you get your confidence. You are only close to the second-grade strength, but I am already a solid second-grade realm. Why do you fight with me? You don't know whether to live or die because of that.
