At dusk, heavy snow began to fall from the sky again. Kou Zhong and other six people drove for more than forty miles, fearing that Su Su could not withstand the cold wind, they happened to come across a manor that had been abandoned due to the war. Everyone then occupied one of the broken houses, lit firewood, and sat around to keep warm.
Liu Heitai took out the remaining food and water, and first served Su Su attentively, who was sitting between Kou and Xu. He looked quite intoxicated, but Su Su seemed not to feel anything.
Kou Zhong recalled hearing the clatter of hooves that night and asked, "Did Brother Liu keep following us last night?"
Liu Heitao said: "It can be said that the people under Li Mi are unscrupulous in doing things, and no one is willing to follow the rules of the world.
So we had expected that they would not let the three of them go."
Xu Ziling stared at the flickering firewood and heard the words: "Who are those people chasing after them on horseback? It doesn't look like they are Wagang troops!" Cui Dongqian: "We can't figure it out either. Cheng is so fast, he can still walk such a long distance in one breath even if he carries Miss Susu on his back."
Kou Zhong said with a smile: "In order to escape for your life, naturally run as fast as you can."
Zhuge Dewei said: "We will arrive at Yangwu tomorrow. Where are you three going?"
Su Su said softly: "We want to go back to Yangzhou first and then make plans."
Liu Heita frowned and said, "Yang Guang and Yu Wenhua are in Jiangdu. If you reveal your hiding place, I'm afraid a big disaster will happen."
Xu Ziling said calmly: "We will be careful."
Liu Heitai saw his determined look and had no choice but to keep silent.
Kou Zhong changed the subject and said: "Your army occupies Leshou and is located in the north. I wonder what new situation has happened recently?"
Zhuge Dewei said: "The three most sensational events in recent times are the revival of Tuyuhun, Li Clan's rebellion against the Sui Dynasty by taking Taiyuan, and Li Mi's envoy Zu Junyan, who has spread the ten most serious crimes against Yang Guang in the world."
Kou Zhong said happily: "Li Yuan is willing to rebel after all!" He looked proud.
Cui Dong said disdainfully: "Who is Li Yuan? He was so shameless that he professed his vassalship to the Turkic Shibi Khan and promised to give his children's jade and silk fabrics from the conquest to the Turks. This is a shame."
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at each other in shock and were speechless.
Zhuge Wude said: "According to the information we have received, Li Yuan established himself as a general, with Pei Ji as the commander-in-chief, Liu Wenjing as the commander-in-chief, his eldest son Jian Jian, and his second son Shimin as the commander-in-chief and deputy commander of the three armies, preparing to march into Guanzhong."
Liu Heitai said: "Li Clan's plan was wishful thinking, but he didn't know that it played into Liu Wuzhou's plan. As long as Taiyuan is empty, it would be strange for Liu Wuzhou not to take the opportunity to capture Taiyuan. Also on the way to Guanzhong, there are Sui Dynasty fierce generals Song Laosheng and Qu Tutong and Tutong respectively led their armies to guard the gate, and no one dares to be optimistic about the future situation of the Li family."
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were very disappointed. It turned out that the real situation was so discouraging.
Su Su asked in confusion: "Don't the Li family members know that surrendering to the Turks would lead to a wolf entering the house?"
Liu Heitai smiled and said: "They are all wolves themselves, so what's the problem of attracting werewolves? Li Yuan's wife is a Hu girl from the Xianbei tribe. Although she is not as good as the Yuwen clan herself, but she is not much better. And Li Yuan's wife is a Hu girl from the Xianbei tribe. The clan has been deeply influenced by Hu customs, and is actually no different from the Hu people."
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling remembered that Li Xiuning wore Hufu to receive guests, and they had nothing to say.
It took quite a while before Kou Zhong asked about Tuyuhun's revival.
Liu Heitaishi: "Tuyuhun is an iron-clad enemy, and its king Fuyun has always been very ambitious. He sends experts to the Central Plains from time to time to find out information. Yang Guang once sent two generals, Wang Yangxiong and Yuwenshu, to hunt down Fuyun, killing more than a thousand people and taking countless prisoners. , Fu Yun relied on his martial arts skills to lead his remnant troops to break out of the siege and fled to Dangxiang. In the past two years, he took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains to reorganize his army, regain the lost territory, regularize his plans, and become the Turkic and Tiele tribes. The greatest disaster to the soil."
Zhuge Dewei said: "The most worrying thing is that Fu Yun's son Fu Qian is an unparalleled talent. Not only has his martial arts reached a state of perfection, he is also an excellent strategist and his ambition is no less than that of his father."
Cui Dong smiled and said, "I heard that this man had a beard on his face when he was born, so he has been showing off his beard since he was a child. Only a wild dog can think of such a ridiculous thing."
Su Su smiled coquettishly and murmured: "A baby with beards looks ridiculous."
Seeing her delicate look and innocent tone, Liu Heitai couldn't help but stare at her again.
Zhuge Dewei got excited about the conversation and said with a smile: "Do you want to hear Li Mi count Yang Guang's top ten crimes?"
Kou Zhong happily said: "Please tell me quickly!" Zhuge Dewei said in one breath: "The first is to kill the father; the second is to commit suicide; the third is to indulge in wine and sex; the fourth is to build palaces and towers, extravagance and waste; the fifth is to impose exorbitant taxes and squeeze the people; the sixth is to Touring the world and building the Great Wall; seven times conquering Goryeo and resorting to military violence; eight times refusing to give direct advice and killing straight people; nine bribery becoming common, the gentleman is in the opposition and the villain is in power; ten words are dishonored. Ha!" Xu Ziling shook his head and sighed: "How can it be so? There are countless crimes committed by this foolish king. When it comes to the extent of the harm to the country, this guy is unprecedented."
Kou Zhongdao: "If we just close our doors and fight, we will be able to unify sooner or later. The last thing we do is attract the invasion of foreign tribes, which will cause the country to fall apart and the lives of all people to be in ruins. Yang Guang is the biggest sinner."
Liu Heitai clapped his legs and said, "That's right. In today's world, except for Duke Jiande, who doesn't collude with foreigners and support each other? Since both of you have the ambition to help the world, what other choice do you have besides joining our army?" "
Kou Zhong smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Liu seems to think highly of my two brothers!" Zhuge Dewei said with a smile: "The world has never been as lively as it is now. It must be destiny, so all the heroes of the younger generation are together." Apart from Heita, the men who have been most popular recently include Yang Xuyan, Ba Fenghan, two brothers, and a man named Hou Xibai who calls himself the "Sentimental Young Master". But in terms of sensation, none more so than you two. "
Su Su happily said: "It turns out that my two younger brothers have become celebrities!" Kou Zhong said with a wry smile: "Our most powerful skill is to escape for our lives, but we never expected that we would become famous and successful because of this."
Liu Heitai laughed dumbly and said: "Brother Kou is too modest. He has no real materials, so he is not qualified to escape. And the two of them were not only able to snatch the account books from Yuwen Chengdu, but they also fought with arrogance. The invincible Yuwen who soared to the sky ran away, how can he be a person who has gained a reputation in vain?"
Xu Ziling asked: "I just heard Mr. Zhuge quote, men can be considered these people! But who are women?"
Just as Liu Heitai was about to speak, Kou Zhongse changed his words: "Someone is coming!" When everyone put out the firewood with hands and feet, Cui Dong, who had just gone out to spy, returned to the house and said in a deep voice: "It's too late! The enemy is here." We have been surrounded."
Zhuge Wude said: "How many people are there and who are they?"
Cui Dong whispered: "There should be about ten people. We can't see clearly in the dark."
At this time, a feminine and feminine voice sounded outside and said: "I, Tuoba Yu, have been ordered by my master Bi Xuan to come here to say hello to Mr. Kou and Mr. Xu."
Everyone's expression changed at the same time. Unexpectedly, the person who came was actually a Turkic master, and Bi Xuan's disciple was presiding among them.
Liu Heitai whispered: "He doesn't seem to know that we are here. Who has ever heard of this man?"
Zhuge Wude and Cui Dong both shook their heads in confusion.
In order to delay time so that Xu Ziling could tie Su Su back to his back, Kou Zhong responded loudly: "My two brothers are still alive and well, brother Tuo! No! It should be brother Tuoba. Thank you for your concern. You still put us in trouble at this night." What's the point of standing around, lest we escape?"
Cui Dong saw that Kou Zhong had no weapons, so he gave a pair of weapons and stuffed them into his hand.
Liu Heitai himself used a cane, but he also hid a sharp dagger as long as a foot and a half in his coat and handed it to Xu Ziling.
Tuoba Yu laughed and said: "There is a saying in your country that no matter what happens, you will not go to the Three Treasures Palace. I have traveled thousands of miles today on the orders of my master. I want to borrow the Taoist treasure "The Secret of Immortality" from you two. The journey has been hard. You two brothers, I hope you won’t disappoint me!"
After a pause, he smiled and said, "I don't know who the other three gentlemen are, so I can let you know them all."
Everyone was shocked. Just from the sound of this man's ears, they knew that he was a first-rate master.
Liu Heitai responded: "I'm just a nobody, how can I be worthy of being in Brother Tuoba's ears?"
Tuobayu laughed three times.
The first sound was still far away outside the house, the second sound was already outside the door, and when the third sound rang, Tuobayu stepped through the door, as leisurely as if he was visiting a friend, holding a lantern in his left hand.
This man is in his mid-twenties. He has a heroic bun on his head, a military uniform, and a leather vest. He has a handsome appearance, and a pair of flying pants hanging on his shoulders. He looks a bit like a young man. At first glance, he looks like a young man. It seems that he is weak and unable to control the wind.
Everyone's eyes fell on the flying ao hanging on his shoulder. This kind of strange weapon is rarely used in the world. The two aos are shaped like eagle claws, and are tied with a ten-foot-long thin rope in the middle. It is obvious at a glance that it is extremely difficult to use. Control.
When Tuoba Yu glanced at everyone, Kou Zhong and others all had a strange feeling, as if there was some kind of invisible but qualitative power in the other person's eyes.
Liu Heitai took a step forward and laughed and said, "Let me get close to Brother Tuoba first."
With his right hand drawn back, the iron crutch rose up from his back. Immediately, cold light shot out, and the coldness invaded people. He stabbed Tuoba Yu in the chest with a fierce and powerful aura, giving him the air of a general.
Kou Zhong and others were greatly delighted when they thought that Liu Heita would immediately take action upon seeing the other party.
Susu exclaimed in fright and closed her beautiful eyes.
Tuoba Yu laughed, moved his lightning sideways, and cut out his right palm at the same time.
With a sound of "Huo!", the edge of Tuoba Yu's palm was cut at the corner. Liu Heitai's earth-shattering move immediately lost all its power. He seemed to have suffered a hidden loss. He changed his moves like lightning and stepped back.
Tuoba Yujun's face turned cold and he sneered: "We are not really close yet!" As he spoke, he suddenly reached the blind spot on Liu Heitai's left. I don't know what trick he used, and he flew into the air on his shoulder. The eagle claw on one end flew out from the shoulder, making a powerful sound of breaking through the air. It circled like lightning and grabbed Liu Heita's lower body with an extremely vicious technique.
In these two fights, both sides were as fast as lightning, which was dizzying to watch.
Liu Heitai was also very good at not panicking in the face of danger. Knowing that the opponent would not give him a chance to adjust his breath, he turned around and came to the door, then swung his cane and hit Fei Lao, who was pursuing him like a shadow.
"Dang!" sounded loudly, and Liu Heitai grunted, and was forced to take half a step back, hitting the broken wall next to the door.
Tuobayu snorted disdainfully, moved his right hand to the center of Feilao's rope, shook it slightly, and the eagle claws at both ends immediately turned into hundreds of light and shadows, and the mercury poured down towards Liu Heitai who was leaning against the wall. He threw his left hand at the same time He raised the lantern and landed on Liang Heng without missing a beat.
Both Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were stunned.
Liu Heitai's abduction technique is already a superb one, and it reaches the first-class level regardless of the power and fire of the law. The most rare thing is that he has a kind of heroic courage and courage, regardless of life and death, which makes him have the power to sweep thousands of armies once he abducts.
This disciple of Bixuan was able to break through the attack and put him at a disadvantage with just a few tricks. It was really shocking. Judging from this, it can be seen that Bixuan can achieve a great reputation and become one of the three top masters inside and outside the region.
Lie, in fact, there are no empty scholars under the great reputation.
Liu Heitao shouted loudly, used his crutch to hold up a ball of light, and protected his upper and lower vitals. He moved sideways against the wall and followed the crutch, waiting to launch an offensive.
Suddenly, the light of the iron crutch disappeared, and it turned out that the iron crutch was caught by the eagle claw on one end of Tuoba Yu, with the five fingers spread out. The other eagle claw was caught by Liu Heitai.
No one expected that the opponent's eagle claws could still move freely, which was extremely weird. When Su Su screamed, Zhuge Wude and Cui Dong slapped each other and attacked Tuoba Yu in a violent manner.
Seeing that the situation was critical, they ignored the rules of the world and joined the battle.
Tuoba Yu sneered, raised his left hand slightly, and the eagle claws on the other end of the lanyard immediately turned into dots of light, showering the two of them like a tide. Then a kick flew up from below, hitting Liu Heitao's lower body. He changed his moves calmly and calmly.
, it’s astonishing.
Liu Heitai used his ability to press the bottom of the box, using his feet to guard his feet from below, while using his claws and crutches to entangle his upper body with Tuoba Yu, he tried to drag his opponent down so that Zhuge Wude and Cui Dong could take advantage of him.
The sounds of energetic clashes and weapons clashing sounded one after another. Tuoba Yu did not hesitate to let go of Liu Heitai's iron crutch, extending Feilao's power to the limit, and involved all three masters in a little bit of brilliance.
All moves are exquisite and unique skills.
Although the fight was fierce inside the house, the enemies outside the house made no sound at all. It was hard to understand why.
Kou Zhong held his right hand and came to the outer edge of the battle circle, concentrating entirely on Tuoba Yu's method.
Xu Ziling also stared at the four people fighting fiercely, but the shock in his heart was indescribable.
In terms of martial arts, Liu Heitai is definitely above the level of masters like Shen Luoyan. Even if he meets Du Fuwei, he can still compete. Zhuge Wude and Cui Dong are also at the level of first-rate players. But now
With the combined strength of the three of them, they could barely resist Tuoba Yu. It was obvious that the disciple Bi Xuan randomly sent out was already a master at Du Fuwei's level. How could he not be shocked?
At this moment, Tuoba Yu let out a long laugh and retracted his claws, seemingly in a defensive stance. However, the three people participating in the battle all felt that there was a powerful killing hidden in it, and they scattered in unison.
Just by this move, three opponents could feel the threat of Feilao at the same time, which shows that he has indeed reached the state of "conveying thoughts with moves" and controlling the enemy's mind purely by his momentum.
Tuoba Yu's eyes were filled with cold light, and his flying eyes crossed and formed a stream of light. He concentrated all his strength and shot at Liu Heitai, who was retreating rapidly. He was still ahead of his opponent faster than his opponent.
Zhuge Wude and Cui Dong cried out in surprise, but because they were far apart and in retreat, it was too late to save them.
Tuobayu's brilliant fighting skills, ferocious moves, and wonderful techniques are all amazing.
Seeing that Liu Heitai was about to be injured by his full blow, Kou Zhong shouted loudly and followed him, hitting Tuoba Yu from the left side.
Tuoba Yu showed surprise for the first time, let Liu Heita go, flew back and forth, and went to meet Kou Zhong instead.
To everyone's surprise, Kou Zhong flashed three feet diagonally like a fish and came directly in front of Tuobayu, blocking him between Tuobayu and Liu Heitai. Iron turned complex into simplicity, and the old man
He shot Tuobayu honestly with a shot of his head.
Tuoba Yu showed a solemn look for the first time, and a thousand shadows appeared, blocking Kou Zhong's ordinary move.
With a sound of "Pa!", the shadows dispersed, and Kou Zhong groaned and took three steps back.
However, Tuobayu's whole body was shaken, and he also moved half a step back, with a stern look in his eyes, and he looked at each other unwillingly with Kou Zhong, who was hunched over like a tiger.
Everyone stopped and didn't make any sound. The only sound that could be heard was Su Su's nervous breathing.
Only Xu Ziling among them understood that Kou Zhong was inspired by Tuoba Yu to have a high fighting spirit. He forgot about life and death, stepped into the realm of Jing Zhongyue, and used moves far beyond his usual level. He used the movement skills he learned from Yu Yu to cooperate with "
The strange internal power of "The Secret of Immortality" restrained Tuoba Yu's fierce flames in one fell swoop.
Tuoba Yu said in a deep voice: "This is the martial arts from the "Secret of Immortality", right?"
Xu Ziling shouted: "The "Secret of Immortality" does not belong to us. If Brother Tuoba comes by force, we will rather die than surrender. At that time, since Brother Tuoba cannot obtain the "Secret of Immortality", there may be others who will be injured. Please Brother Tuoba."
Think twice."
Xu Ziling's words were extremely powerful. He made it clear that he would rather break the jade than destroy it. Together with Kou Zhong's move, he forced Tuoba Yu's power back, which was really awe-inspiring.
Liu Heitai and others tried their best to adjust their breath and luck, and when they were ready to take action again, they fought back with all their strength.
A burst of sweet laughter came from outside the house, and suddenly there was a girl wearing a beaded curtain hat and a large burqa at the large window on the back left, with a pair of bare feet exposed under the skirt.
She was sitting leisurely against the broken window, one foot on the window sill, and the other foot hanging down, swaying, feeling very unhappy.
This girl is very pretty, with an oval face and a bunch of small spots like stars on each cheek, giving her a playful and wild look. Her beautiful eyes are long and charming, and her black eyes are full of untamed wildness.
He looked at Kou Zhong with great interest, as if the others didn't exist.
But everyone's eyes fell on the strange-shaped waist knife that she was playing with in her hand.
This kind of knife, which is very popular among the Turks, is the most powerful knife. The shape of the knife is slightly curved, with a sharp front and an oblique back. There is no hand guard. The handle is tied with a cloth strip. It is flattened from the knife, and the blade is ground flat without pits.
, because the blade is only about an inch wide, so it is extremely sharp.
The waist knife in this woman's hand was obviously of the highest quality. Under the light of the lantern on Liang Yan, it shone brightly and was soaked in cold light. Just from the sudden appearance of her appearance, it was known that her martial arts skills were by no means inferior to Tuoba Yu.
The delicate girl pouted her little mouth, and moved her eyes to Xu Ziling, saying disdainfully: "It turns out that all the people in China are just arrogant people. No wonder Yang Guang would overestimate his capabilities and expedition to Goryeo. I, Chun Yuwei, want to see what it means to rather die than surrender."
Tuoba Yu laughed and said: "My junior sister has always been pampered by the master, please don't mind me. This time I was ordered to ask for the "Secret of Immortality", and it was not to take it by force. The master has said that, please give the "Secret of Immortality" to you.
After looking through the "Secrets", return it immediately. It can also pass on the unique skills of each brother Kou and Xu. Please don't mistakenly think that the master just wants to take advantage of others."
Everyone exchanged glances and felt that Bi Xuan still had the demeanor of a great master.
Chun Yuwei smiled sweetly at Kou Zhong and said: "Your kung fu is not bad! But in addition to our senior brothers and sisters, we also have the "Eighteen Duobei Sai Hussars" trained by the master.
You are so brave that you are not afraid of death. If you take action, I am afraid that not many of you will survive."
After a pause, she said leisurely: "I forgot to tell you that as long as you are still breathing, we will have a way to extend your life. At that time, the "Secret of Immortality" was not readily available." Her voice was delicate and sweet.
, with a bit of a foreign accent, creating a strange flavor.
Tuobayu frowned and said, "Junior sister, can you be polite? It's best not to do anything if you can."
The two brothers and sisters are tough and soft, especially Tuoba Yu who has shown his ability to overwhelm the crowd, which indeed puts a strong pressure on everyone. What's more, there are still at least 18 tough guys trained by Bi Xuan outside, and the strength of the weak is strong.
,obvious.
At this time, everyone formed a small circle to protect Xu Ziling, who was carrying Su Su on his back, and it became a confrontation with clear barriers.
Liu Heitai laughed and said: "Soldiers will inevitably die on the battlefield. If God has destined me, Liu Heitai, to die in this battle, I will never frown for a moment. Talking is useless. I would like to see a real seal under my hands."
"
This man was born brave and brave, which immediately aroused everyone's fighting spirit. Tuoba Yu took a step forward and said in surprise: "It turns out that your Excellency is Liu Heitai, Dou Jiande's number one general. No wonder his hands are so tough. But I don't understand something.
, Obviously everyone can turn conflicts into friendship, why does Brother Liu take the lead in the battle?"
Liu Heitai knew that he was intending to divide his side, and secretly shouted that he was powerful, but he did not hesitate to say: "If Brother Tuoba is here just to discuss borrowing books, there is no need to send so many people, so it is obvious that he is asking for books by force.
But because there were three more of us, and Brother Kou's skills were beyond your expectation, I changed my tone and asked for excuses. Was I wrong?"
Chun Yuwei smiled and said: "Of course it's wrong. We are traveling south today. Borrowing the "Secret of Immortality" is only one of our tasks. The other important thing is to hunt down the evil villain Ba Fenghan, cut off his stinky head and go back to see the Master.
, do you understand, kid?"
Su Su, who had been silent until now, spoke up: "If I give you the book, can you promise not to bother us again?"
Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong both wanted to speak, but then swallowed their words because they thought at the same time that even if they gave the book to Bi Xuan, he would not be able to understand it. In this case, there is no reason to risk their lives for this book.
Tuoba Yu said happily: "It's best that Miss is so sensible. What my master says never fails to count. In fact, I have a desire to make friends with Brother Liu, Brother Kou and Brother Xu. If we can all be harmonious,
It's the most ideal thing!"
Kou Zhongdao: "To be honest, my hands are very itchy now, and I really want to have a big fight. It doesn't matter if I lose more or win less, but there are advantages to not fighting. It's just that we buried the "Secret of Immortality" in a secret
It will take a lot of effort to pick up the book and hand it over to you. And the problem is that we have to wait until we solve some things before we can do this. What does Brother Tuoba have to say about this?"
Chun Yuwei interjected: "You are so funny, you make people like you very much! Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard this. They didn't expect that this cute and charming girl would openly express her happiness to a strange man. Tuoba Yu smiled.
Said: "My junior sister has always been so naive, but there are really countless people who are happy for her. Brother Kou, please don't take it seriously."
Chunyu Wei said angrily: "Brother, how can you say this to others? This trip is different!" Kou Zhong asked playfully:
"Is it different every time?"
Liu Heitai and others couldn't help but find it funny. They didn't expect that the three parties who were originally at war with each other would suddenly become entangled in this kind of issue.
Chun Yuwei still wanted to speak, but Tuoba Yu stopped her and said, "Anyway, it will take us some time to hunt down Ba Fenghan. If I give you two half a year, will we be able to get the Secret of Immortality back?"
For the first time, everyone had a good impression of Tuoba Yu, who was ruthless and cruel, and had a sinister and eccentric temperament, all because he had an attitude of honoring promises and keeping promises. Only those who value promises will believe in the promises of others.
Kou Zhong said: "It should be enough. We will meet in Luoyang in half a year. Even if we still don't have the "Secret of Immortality" in hand, we will lead Brother Tuoba to get the book."
Tuoba Yu bowed his head to the ground and said loudly: "It's settled, I'm leaving."
He flashed and exited the door.
Everyone looked at Chunyu Wei again, and the woman disappeared at the same time.
After a long while, Liu Heitai let out a breath of cold air and said, "Ba Fenghan's life is in danger on this trip!" Everyone felt the same, but Bi Xuan's two disciples had already
If he is so powerful, wouldn't Bixuan's martial arts be even higher than it is unimaginable?
