Qin Yang was still walking slowly on the road from Wu'an to Zhaocun on his black horse. It was already dusk, the sun had already gone to the west, and there was a slight cool breeze blowing between the sky and the earth. He felt the coolness leisurely.
I feel very comfortable in my heart.
He knew very well that someone must be waiting for him in the mountain col ahead, thinking about the gold on his body and also thinking about taking his own life. Although he could not predict these events that were not recorded in history, the special forces in the past ten years
His career gave him an extraordinary sense of danger. He carefully analyzed that if he wanted to rob and kill him, only the mountain col with trees and bushes in front of him was the best place.
So he was just wasting time, and he believed in his own judgment. From the moment he went to Lin's Trading Company to exchange money and found someone following him, Qin Yang had already determined that there was a "pocket" waiting for him. What he wanted now was one word: "grinding"
". He wanted to wear down the patience of those people and let them slowly reveal their flaws in the endless waiting. At the same time, he wanted to give Zhao Yun enough time to prepare everything.
The reason why Qin Yang did this was also due to another consideration. Because he wanted to see how accomplished the ancient people were in "sniping", so that he could have a comprehensive understanding of the ancient people's combat skills.
.Although Qin Yang knows that these people definitely cannot represent the top level of this era, having an initial impression is better than having none at all. This is Qin Yang's consistent principle.
It was only seven or eight miles from Wu'an City to the mountain col, but Qin Yang walked for nearly half an hour with one person and one horse. The pedestrians on the road were walking much faster than him. Faced with the sideways glances of others, Qin Yang
Yang accepted it calmly and didn't take it seriously at all. However, the dark horse was very angry and tried to gallop several times but was stopped by Qin Yang.
However, even if he walked slowly, he would eventually arrive. Arriving at the mountain col, Qin Yang began to look at the surrounding terrain. To be precise, this mountain col was not a "mountain col" in the true sense. Because it was so long
It is only about half a mile long, running from east to west, higher in the north and lower in the south. The high point is about three feet, and the low point is less than ten feet. The entrance and exit are very spacious. If you hurry up, you can rush over in a moment.
Qin Yang could see it clearly and was even more determined in his heart. So he dismounted in front of the entrance, whispered to the black horse, pointed ahead, and signaled the black horse to enter the valley and wait at the exit over there. The black horse seemed to understand and gave a long hiss.
He went straight. Qin Yang smiled, moved, and instantly disappeared into the trees on the mountain ridge to the north.
At this time, the people who were lying in ambush on the mountain ridge in the north were excited when they heard the neighing of the horses. They all tightened their grip on the guy in their hands. The leader was a burly man with a beard, about thirty years old, and he was dressed in shorts.
, thick and strong, holding a three-foot-long sword in his hand, showing his fierceness.
"He's finally here, his grandma's. I've been waiting from noon until now. Not to mention, I'm covered in stinky sweat, and I don't even see a hair. When I catch that kid, I will cut him into thousands of pieces to relieve the hatred in my heart.
!" The sturdy man said with hatred.
"Boss, there seems to be no one around right now?" A person in charge of lookout came over to report.
"What? What are you talking about? There is no one right away?" The sturdy man did not bother to blame the man. He stood up and looked towards the bottom of the valley. In his impatience, he even slipped a few stones and the stones rolled down the steep slope.
A few more birds flew away and fluttered away. The black horse at the bottom of the valley seemed to feel the danger and ran faster and faster. While everyone was stunned, the black horse flashed past everyone like lightning.
It went further and further away in the blink of an eye. Only these dozen people were left here in a daze.
"What's going on? Where has his grandma gone? Lin Wu, go back and ask the proprietor what's going on? Could it be that that kid has wings and can fly?..." The sturdy man looked confused.
Confuse.
"Excuse me, brothers, are you looking for me?"
Suddenly, an extremely calm voice came from behind everyone.
"Ah!!" Everyone turned around in shock, only to find that someone was already standing behind them. This person was smiling faintly, leaning against a tree, and kept talking.
Chewing grass roots, holding three more bags in his hand.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" the sturdy man asked sharply.
"I am the person you are looking for. My name is Qin Yang. As for what I am doing here, you don't need to know. But can you tell me what you are doing here?" Qin Yang replied lazily. Because that's all.
People's alertness and reaction ability are not enough to make them feel the pressure, and these people lack patience and do not have corresponding protection. It is a big loophole to easily expose their position. On the battlefield in another time and space, suffering from such a
Low-level mistakes, there is only one word waiting for them: "death".
"Okay, it seems that you are really a master who is not afraid of death. You actually dare to come to your door. I think you are quite a man. If you leave your things, I will spare your life! Otherwise, our brothers will kill you
Throw it away to feed the wolves." The sturdy man threatened, but the man in front of him looked like a ghost, which made him feel less confident and looked a bit fierce.
"Oh? Okay, the thing is here, come and get it if you have the ability." Qin Yang still didn't move, and didn't even change his posture. He just looked at the sturdy man and others quietly.
"Boss, don't be nagging him. Get rid of him so that you can go back to work as soon as possible." As soon as the man named Lin Wu finished speaking, he took the lead and rushed towards Qin Yang with a dagger.
When the people behind saw someone taking the lead, they shouted to each other and wanted to rush forward. But before they could take two steps, they stopped and did not move. For a while, they were in various postures, and the scene was extremely funny.
.Because they found that Lin Wu was lying on the ground with his right hand in his arms, howling, and the dagger in his hand was in Qin Yang's hand. No one among them could see clearly whether Qin Yang made a move, because Qin Yang was still leaning on him as before.
On the tree. It was as if Lin Wu gave the sword to Qin Yang and then injured his arm.
"Boss, this kid knows sorcery?" Another person in the crowd spoke, but he couldn't hide his fear in his words. Because he knew Lin Wu's skills, and no one among these people could do it except the boss.
He was able to catch Lin Wu's dagger. However, Lin Wu fell to the ground as soon as he faced him, and his opponent barely even moved. They had done this kind of thing many times, and they did it cleanly every time. Unexpectedly, they met today
This is such a weird thing. This opponent's weird behavior has gone beyond the cognitive scope of everyone present, so the only way to explain it all is with magic.
"You all stand down, and I will weigh how much he weighs." The sturdy man spoke. Because he knew that except for himself, the rest of the people would be in vain and might be in the way. Although he saw Lin
Wu fell down inexplicably and felt a little scared, but if he didn't try, he would feel dissatisfied. He returned empty-handed, and the proprietor couldn't make a difference.
Everyone responded and immediately stepped aside. Seeing how powerful Lin Wuhao was, two people wanted to step forward and help him back, but they were afraid of Qin Yang's attack, and looked hesitant on their faces.
At this time Qin Yang spoke: "Hel him back, don't occupy the space and do nothing." He threw the dagger back into the crowd.
The two men were relieved and quickly half dragged and half lifted Lin Wu down.
A hint of gratitude suddenly flashed in the eyes of the tall man, but immediately his eyes were filled with solemnity. He was about to take action. He slowly raised the sword in his hand and stared at Qin Yang closely.
As soon as Qin Yang saw that the tall man was ready to attack and still had some momentum, he did not dare to be lazy at that moment. He stepped forward and cupped his fists at the big man and said: "If brother wins me, you can take the gold, but if I win by luck,
Would you like to listen to what I have to say?"
The big man didn't know it was a trick, so he snorted: "You are better than nature, and everything is up to you. Come on, you are such a nagging bird. You have weapons but you can't blame me if you don't use them!" Before he finished speaking, he swung his sword and slashed towards Qin Yang.
As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, some of the momentum he had built up had already been released.
As soon as Qin Yang saw the coming of the sword, he thought to himself: "The stance is okay, but it's a little slow." So instead of retreating, he stepped forward with his right foot. His left hand caught the big man's right wrist holding the sword like lightning, and he grabbed it with his right hand.
He grabbed the big man's right arm, rotated his left foot slightly, and exerted force with both hands. With a "pop" sound, the big man's huge body passed over Qin Yang's head and fell to the ground a few feet away.
"But, is there anyone else who wants to try?" The golden afterglow of the setting sun shrouded the majestic Qin Yang through the treetops, like a god.
Silence, deep silence. No one made a sound, including Lin Wu who was howling just now and the burly man lying on the ground.
After a while, slowly, slowly, there was the sound of weapons being dropped on the ground and the heavy breathing of everyone.
Finally, the sturdy man got up and bowed to Qin Yang: "I am not as good as others, and I have offended you. I am willing to let you deal with me. I am just presumptuously asking you to let them go. They are also born in miserable families..."
Before the burly man finished speaking, the mountains in the distance behind him started to become noisy. There were the sounds of falling rocks, the sound of someone shouting, the faint sound of horses neighing, and...
When everyone heard this, they were even more panicked. Without any hesitation, they all knelt down in unison and begged in unison: "Young Master, please spare your life, Young Master, please spare your life..."
Qin Yang smiled. He saw that this big man was very loyal and would rather save others than to be punished. He was impressed. So he reached out and pulled up the big man, but let the rest of the people shout on the ground.
Qin Yang asked: "Brother, I see you are also a good man. Why don't you do some serious business instead of doing this shameful thing? Tell me, who else is there in the family?"
"Back to the young master, I am from Yingchuan County, my name is Chen Meng. I have a brother who went to build the Great Wall and has not returned for several years. Five years ago, the government wanted to recruit people again. My mother is sick at home and my brother has not returned from the trip. I beg you.
After my brother returned, I applied for the draft, but the government refused, so I had a dispute with the officials and accidentally injured one person, so I was arrested by the officials. I escaped desperately and ran all the way to Wu'an. It happened that the trading company was recruiting people to protect the business, so I
I went to answer the call. Seeing that I still had some skills, Dongzhu Lin made me work as a small manager in the trading company, and I also did some business without capital. However, the team I led only wanted money and had never killed anyone, even if it was
When asking for wealth, I only look for property from unknown sources, just like the young master..." The big man's voice became smaller and smaller as he spoke.
"Okay, I believe you. Go back and tell Boss Lin that from now on you will be honest about your own business and stop doing such evil things. If you let me hear of something like this happening again, I will make sure that his body is gone."
Qin Yang shouted sharply.
"Sir, are you letting us go?" Chen Meng asked in surprise.
"What? No? Get out of here before I change my mind!"
When Lin Wu and others heard Qin Yang telling them to get lost, they immediately stood up and walked away as if hearing the sound of nature, not even bothering to pick up the weapons thrown on the ground.
But Chen Meng didn't leave, still standing in front of Qin Yang.
Qin Yang said in surprise: "Why don't you leave? Are you waiting for me to kill you?"
"Young master, if you want to kill me, just pull my neck and kill me. You are so righteous, and I can't repay you for being fierce. From now on, I am willing to follow you around and do the work of dogs and horses." Chen Meng said sincerely.
Chen Meng admired Qin Yang's skills and was even more grateful that Qin Yang could let go of his subordinates. Although his subordinates ignored him and didn't even say hello, he didn't mind. In his heart, he just wanted to do things that were worthy of his own conscience.
.Perhaps the word "righteousness" is the only criterion for his behavior, and it is still the same for Qin Yang.
Qin Yang was stunned for a moment, then he raised his hands and said: "Brother Meng's words are serious. I am grateful to you for your love and support from Brother Meng. It's just that I don't have a fixed place now, and I don't dare to drag down Brother Meng. If I can occupy a place somewhere in the future,
I must come and invite Brother Meng to talk about brotherhood! I just ask Brother Meng not to mention the word "following" again. We will only talk about brotherhood. What do you think?"
When Chen Meng heard Qin Yang's words, he was even more excited. He bowed deeply and said, "Brother Yang, I'm so grateful to you. I'll say goodbye today and wait until we can get together someday."
"Okay. Come, let's high-five!" Qin Yang also felt excited.
"Okay! High five as an oath!" Chen Meng responded immediately.
With a "pop" sound, the two people's broad palms clenched tightly together.
Qin Yang watched Chen Meng go away, then walked down the mountain ridge towards the exit of the mountain col. He never thought that the Chen Meng he made friends with today would bring him too many surprises in the future. This is a story later.
