The official road is flat and wide. The four-foot-wide road is compacted with loess, and the ground is flat, which is most suitable for actual light martial arts. Su Yang used the body technique of a thousand miles and floated forward along the official road. The wind whistled in his ears, and the trees on both sides moved quickly.
As I retreated, I couldn't hear any footsteps, it was like a gust of wind blowing by without leaving any trace.
If there is someone beside the official road, if he closes his eyes and just relies on his feelings to judge, he will never think that this is a person. After practicing Qinggong for thousands of miles, he is integrated with the surrounding natural environment, like wind and thunder, or like wind and thunder.
Like running water.
If a person himself has become a part of nature, then what in nature can stop him or leave him behind?
But the official road still made a crisp sound. Ding Xi's Qinggong was very strange. He held a long whip in his hand, and struck the ground hard with the tip of the whip, and then he jumped forward a few feet. When
The momentum was exhausted, and when the person was about to fall, but before he could fall, the second whip had already fallen to the ground, raising a cloud of yellow dust, and jumped up again, walking side by side with Su Yang.
Miss Wang's face turned red. She tried her best to keep up with the two men, but she didn't dare to speak, for fear that she would lose her strength as soon as she exhaled and fall behind to eat the ashes of Ding Xi's whip.
While Su Yang was galloping, he turned his head and glanced at Ding Xi. His eyes were a little complicated and he hesitated to speak.
"You know what you want to say." Ding Xi said lightly: "I'm not as fragile as you think."
"This is not a question of vulnerability and strength, but a matter of human ethics." Su Yang sighed: "He is your father after all."
"Do you know how I am alive today?" Ding Xi suddenly asked a question that seemed to have nothing to do with the current topic.
But this is a very heavy question. Maybe people like Ding Xi who smile all day long are usually carrying some unknown heavy things deep down in their hearts.
Otherwise, why would they laugh all day long?
Laughter is a kind of cover-up and a kind of numbness.
Ding Xi continued to smile lightly and said: "He left before I was born. My mother is a woman who doesn't know any martial arts, and she is also sick. When I was three years old, I could hold a broken bowl.
I went to the streets to beg for food to support my mother and I. When I was six years old, I learned to be a pickpocket in order to buy a coffin for my mother. In the past ten years, no one has ever worried about me. Why should I care about others?
"
Su Yang patted his shoulder: "I know you said that, just to find a reason for yourself to be cruel enough to attack him. You didn't say it for me. You said it for yourself.
At least I know that if you really don’t know how to care about others, a woman like Hong Xinghua will never treat you as her own grandson. But now is not the time to think about this, we must first find Deng
Waiting."
Fortunately, the official road only goes in one direction. The big car returning to Dongjing is too big and heavy. There are clear wheel marks on the official road leading to the distance. As long as you keep following it and walking along the road, you will definitely find the car.
Cart, find Deng Dinghou.
No matter how long the road is, it has an end.
At the end is a cliff.
A cart worth tens of thousands of dollars had fallen off a cliff. Looking from the edge of the cliff, the cart was smashed into pieces, as were several of the horses pulling it. But no human corpses could be seen.
They found Deng Dinghou in the grass on the edge of the cliff.
Deng Dinghou was covered in blood and his consciousness had begun to blur. There were at least seven or eight wounds on his body. The most serious one was a hole in his chest that penetrated his body, as if he had been pierced by a weapon such as a spear.
"Go, go to the town." After seeing Su Yang, he only said one sentence and fainted.
……….
A small town means a very small town.
However, Hungry Hill is not just a small hill, but a very large and very high mountain. There is only one town like this within a radius of several hundred miles around this mountain.
But no matter how small a town is, it is countless times better than the environment in the wilderness. At least it has a room that can shelter from the wind and rain and a medicine shop to treat injuries. So even if Deng Dinghou didn't say those three words, Su Yang would
He had to be brought to a small town to recuperate. Fortunately, Deng Dinghou's chest injury was slightly deviated from his heart by two points, and his body was stronger than ordinary people and his skills were profound. After a few days, he was able to get out of bed and walk.
.
"Ximen Sheng and I both fell into Gui Dongjing's trick. Do you still remember the packet of antidote at the banquet that day? It was actually poison. Gui Dongjing used the poison to blackmail Ximen Sheng and me into doing things for him. It turns out that he is the real
traitor. I said that Baili Changqing could not use his internal strength, which really aroused his suspicion. Shortly after you left, you actually met Ximen Sheng. It turned out that Ximen Sheng did not go to find medicine for Baili Changqing at all, but kept
Just following in the dark, as Gui Dongjing's dark chess." After Deng Dinghou woke up, he immediately explained the whole story to Su Yang and others.
"Ximen Sheng was originally half of Gui Dongjing's subordinates. After being poisoned, he decided to serve him wholeheartedly. Did they jointly injure you?"
Only then did Ding Xi realize that the penetrating wound on Deng Dinghou's chest was not caused by the spear at all, but by Ximen Sheng's Judge's Pen. The Judge's Pen made of fine iron was almost the same as the front half of the spear, and the wound caused by it was actually the first half of the spear.
It looks no different from the one caused by a long gun.
"good."
Deng Dinghou suddenly showed a proud smile: "But I didn't make them feel better. There is only this small town hundreds of miles away where people can live and take medicine to recuperate. If they want to live, they will inevitably come to this town, at least.
Near town!”
"Are they there too?" Miss Wang asked doubtfully: "Ximen Sheng and Gui Dongjing are both very strong in martial arts. Are you sure that you fought one against two and seriously injured them?"
Deng Dinghou smiled slightly and said: "If it was one-on-one, Gui Dongjing would be dead. Although they are two people, I think Gui Dongjing's bones will not be harder than iron."
The nickname "Little Zhuge of the Divine Fist" has been used for more than ten years. The word "Shenquan" was still before Little Zhuge. There must be some desperate methods.
When he fights with all his strength, his fists are probably harder than iron, so if the person fighting against him doesn't have bones harder than iron, it will definitely not be easy for him.
But how many people in the world have bones harder than iron?
"This town is not big. Ever since you woke up and told us, Ding Xi and I have almost turned over the town." Su Yang said, "But Gui Dongjing and Ximen Sheng were not found at all. The medicine shop owner said
Some people came here to buy medicine for wounds, but I don’t know where they live.”
"If it's not in the town, it must be near the town! Gui Dongjing took a punch from me and couldn't have gone far!" Deng Dinghou was very sure of his fist.
Nearby is a word with a wide range. One mile is considered nearby, and a hundred miles is also considered nearby. Fortunately, after asking around, we found that there is a place three miles outside the town. It was famous decades ago, but now it is almost ignored.
Forgotten place.
Big pagoda.
A dark shadow stood outside the town, looking quite towering even from a distance. There was also a section exposed on the roof of the mountain temple, which was flat and square, and looked like a large piece of
The cliff looks like a very high platform.
But no matter how you look at the shadow, it doesn't look like a big pagoda, because no pagoda has a flat top.
Su Yang said: "Maybe this is just half a pagoda."
"Is there still half a pagoda left?" Miss Wang asked curiously.
"A half-collapsed pagoda is certainly half a pagoda."
After hearing what Su Yang said, Miss Wang looked at the black figure again, and it really looked like a pagoda.
And it is indeed a 'big' pagoda. Even if it is only half of the height, it is scary. Even if a person with the best qinggong skills falls from it, he will probably fall half to death. I don't know how much manpower and labor was spent on the construction of this big pagoda.
Material resources.
Whether it is a pagoda or half a pagoda, it is a good place to shelter from wind and rain. Each floor is a natural room. As long as there is food, water and medicine, except that it is older and the environment is colder, it is no better than the town.
The inn above was worse.
Miss Wang tightened her belt, held her gun tightly, and said: "Since this is a big pagoda, why don't we go in!"
"We have to go in, but not us." Su Yang glanced at Ding Xi.
Ding Xi shook his head: "It's us, but not the three of us."
"What do you two mean?" Every time Miss Wang listens to these two guys talking, she feels that she has been playing the role of a confused passerby these days.
"What we mean is that you stay outside and guard." Ding Xi said.
Miss Wang seemed to understand something, her face changed immediately, she slapped the Overlord Spear hard, held a long spear in her hand, and said angrily: "You look down on my martial arts? Do you look down on women?"
Su Yang and Ding Xi looked at each other, neither said anything, but smiled strangely.
When Miss Wang saw their smiles, she probably thought of something, her face suddenly turned red, and her aura suddenly disappeared.
She pretended to cough a few times and said nonchalantly: "Yes, although my martial arts skills are not as good as yours, I can guarantee that I will not hold you back!"
Su Yang squinted his eyes and looked at the big pagoda, and said seriously: "You see, this pagoda has experienced thousands of years of wind and rain, and has collapsed in half. It is definitely not very strong. If we do something inside, it might be possible at any time.
If it collapses, if there’s no one outside to take care of us, I’m afraid we’ll die inside! So…”
Su Yang patted Miss Wang's shoulder seriously: "So we asked you to stay outside, not because we look down on you. On the contrary, we think you are a very capable girl, and we hope you can help us guard our way out."
, our lives are in your hands!"
Ding Xi kept a straight face and said nothing, but turned his face to another place where Miss Wang could not see.
Miss Wang suddenly understood and nodded heavily: "I understand, you can go without worry, I will stay here, and with me here, you will not lose a hair!"
….
After Ding Xi and Su Yang entered the big pagoda, Ding Xi finally couldn't help but smile.
"After thousands of years of wind and rain, it just proves that this tower is very strong. How could it collapse just because someone was fighting? You lied to me so casually. That girl doesn't know very well."
Su Yang waved his hand nonchalantly: "As long as she can stay outside, at least we can have peace of mind."
He looked up and said slowly: "Deng Dinghou's injury has healed by at least half, so Gui Dongjing must be the same. Plus Ximen Sheng is not easy to deal with."
"Maybe you are too cautious. If Deng Ding comes together, our chances of winning will increase by several percent."
"Actually, I don't feel comfortable leaving our escape route to Miss Wang." Su Yang said, "With Deng Ding waiting secretly guarding outside the tower, this is our real escape route." (To be continued...)
