Chapter 944 944: Encounter on a narrow road (Part 2)
"It's Nishimiya Kou!"
"Shit, what the hell is Xigong Qiu? They call it Gong Xi Qiu!"
These caravan guards all retired from the army. They were either old or had hidden injuries and were unfit to continue fighting. In addition, Shen Tang wanted to reform the military system, so they thought over and over again and chose to retire. Some of them still have relatives at home. , took the subsidy and returned to his ancestral home to marry a wife and have children. Some people were alone and it was the same wherever they stayed, so they chose to work as guards for the caravan.
Kang Guo treats veterans well.
The Royal Court has a special organization to collect intelligence on these veterans and introduce them to suitable jobs. Being a guard for a caravan has high returns, but the risks are relatively high. If you work as a postman at various post stations, the pay is relatively low, but the advantages are Stable and safe.
Besides these, there are other destinations.
The most popular areas for employment are undoubtedly the departments under the Ministry of Industry.
Therefore, these guards had seen Gong Xiqiu before the formation. To be precise, they had seen Gong Xiqiu's valiant totem and had an impression.
"...He doesn't seem to be calling Qiu, is he Qiu?"
"No, no, I won't remember it wrong..."
Several people argued but couldn't come up with a unified answer. Instead, the head of the caravan said: "...Well, it doesn't matter what it's called. The important thing is that the Gongxi Qiu you talk about really wants to play ball!"
The several guards were quiet for a moment and looked at each other. Relying on the tacit understanding of fighting side by side for many years, they assigned their respective tasks. One of them transformed into a war horse on the spot: "You must protect the caravan's goods. This place is not far from Jinli County. I Come as soon as you go!”
Gong Xiqiu had the false title of general in Kang State.
Although he has no real power, the general Rongfeng suffered a disaster here, and the matter must be reported to the local Zhechong government. They also know that they are very weak, and it is difficult to even get close. A single aftermath can seriously injure all of them, and even more Not to mention helping Gong Xiqiu out of trouble. The only thing we can do is to go to the local Zhechong Mansion as quickly as possible to report the news. Maybe we can still make it in time.
Yi Cheng saw the direction and shouted to stop him.
"Don't go this way!"
Looking at this movement, the official road ahead is going to suffer.
The guards rushed over, fearing that they might even lose their lives.
"Yicheng, please show me the way."
Taking the official road is the fastest recently. If you take a detour, you don't know how much time will be wasted. The guard was anxious, and without waiting for Yi Cheng to show the way, a young man in red clothes walked out from among the rangers. He was said to be a young man. , in fact, he has the physique of a young man, but his clear eyes, red lips and white teeth, which invisibly lower his age, make people judge him younger at first glance.
"This strong man, what do you think his name is?"
The guard wanted to scold him and tell him to go away and stop causing trouble, but the moment he met those eyes, the anxiety in his heart was drained away, and he said calmly: "His name is Gong Xi Qiu."
He spoke firmly and resolutely.
Little did he know that the corners of the mouths of the young man in cloth and the person next to him twitched.
Gongxi Qiu lost his real name!
The well-dressed boy looked up at the sharp claws of the horned eagle in the distance, shrunk, and engulfed the body of the giant python, tearing off a large piece of flesh and blood, with snake scales flying, and the faint sound of muscle twitching could be seen.
The giant python did not sit still and wait for death. Instead, the python's body flew out and tried to wrap around the horned eagle's neck. However, the latter flapped its wings and flew past, narrowly passing by and exploding several bloody ink feathers.
There are two martial auras, one green and one black, using the bodies of the two giant beasts as the battlefield, erupting from time to time in terrifying explosions.
"Gongxi Qiu, Gongxi..."
The handsomely dressed young man murmured twice.
Then, he turned to look at his companions and asked for confirmation: "Uncle Lin, is this person a member of the tribe who is living abroad?"
He knew about the existence of Gong Xiqiu a long time ago.
Fang Yan and Chao Lian mentioned it to themselves.
But he was still ignorant at that time. Even if Gong Xiqiu was a clansman, it meant nothing to him. Even his teacher Jimo Yu didn't care, so why should he care? Now that the teacher's merits and virtues are complete, Gong Xiqiu has become
The only tribe member.
Any existence with the word "only" has a special meaning, and I can't just watch from the sidelines.
Fourth Uncle Lin nodded: "Yes."
I just didn't expect to meet you here.
Fang Yan looked at the battlefield in the distance and thought more comprehensively: "Shaobai, Gong Xiqiu is a warlike person. We don't know whether he has met an enemy or is discussing with others one-on-one. Interfering rashly may not be helpful. In the end,
The important thing is this formation..."
It turned out that only Gong Xiqiu was beaten.
The well-dressed boy used to be beaten together.
Chao Lian put his hand on his forehead to avoid the dazzling sunlight so that he could see more carefully: "Gong Xiqiu's opponent is not very young either. Every move he makes goes straight to Gong Xiqiu's vitals. He is here to risk his life.
It can't be a competition. Tsk, I think back then Gong Xiqiu defeated our brothers alone, and now we have ended up in such an embarrassing situation. The northwest continent has been very lively in the past few years."
I have never heard of anyone who can compete with Gong Xiqiu.
As for Shen Youli?
She doesn't count.
After all, Gong Xiqiu is still a human being, and there are traces of his growth path. Shen Jun is completely beyond the scope of normal people's understanding.
Shaochong on the side frowned, not very happy.
Chao Lian asked him with concern: "What's wrong, Thirteen?"
Shaochong crossed his arms and rubbed them: "I don't know why, I feel a little uncomfortable when I see that snake. I always feel pain all over my body."
Chao Lian: "..."
Although Shisan lost his previous memories, his body still remembered the experience of being almost beaten to death by Gong Xiqiu, so it was no wonder he felt uncomfortable.
Shaochong licked his lips: "Brother Twelve."
Chao Lian responded: "What's wrong?"
Shaochong seemed to be reminiscing: "Let's eat snake soup tonight."
Chao Lian: "..."
The well-dressed boy grabbed his hand and formed a weapon, and said to Fang Yan: "It's okay, I'll ask him if he wants my help."
If not, he will just watch from the sidelines.
The next moment, the young man flew away through the air, leaving a stream of red light in the air. After Chao Lian and Fang Yan looked at each other, they were also ready to watch the battle at close range. Remember when Gongxi Qiuduo was so arrogant and domineering? Every battlefield he went to was done by his uncle.
Pai, it's rare to see him as a grandson. His good plays are rare, and once you see them, there are fewer.
Fourth Uncle Lin is the only one who has never met Gong Xiqiu.
He was not interested in watching the other party being beaten.
But he couldn't stand the naughty boy Shao Chong and carried him on his back.
The oncoming strong wind blew ripples on Fourth Uncle Lin's face: "Did I say I was going to watch the fun?"
This roar could not be uttered.
Because as soon as I opened my mouth, I was forced to take a mouthful of wind.
Whether it was Gong Xiqiu or Gong Cheng, both of them noticed a few strange auras coming towards them. The difference was that Gong Xiqiu couldn't spare any attention to pay attention to it, while Gong Cheng could be distracted, but he didn't care. It was guessed that it was the martial arts nearby.
The brave ones come to join in the fun.
This kind of thing happens from time to time.
Observing the confrontation between two courageous warriors at close range, anyone with a little bit of understanding can learn something. Maybe this is the only chance to break through the bottleneck. However, some excitement cannot be fooled.
Will you lose your life if you are affected?
That's really a waste of time, and you can't blame others.
No one expected that the strange and courageous warrior who was supposed to be watching the battle didn't know how to keep his distance and instead rushed towards him.
Gong Cheng and Gong Xiqiu stopped and retreated at the same time.
It wasn't that he was afraid of hurting anyone, but that the person who came had also taken action, forcibly inserting himself between the two of them, destroying the original balance. Gong Xiqiu was able to take a breath, while Gong Cheng squinted slightly and looked through the explosion and collision of martial energy.
Qi Lang, barely able to see the general appearance of the other party, asked aloud: "What are you -"
The moment the visitor turned around to look, it stopped abruptly.
The visitor was dressed in a crimson outfit, which made his originally fair complexion more delicate and fairer, and his facial features were deeper and three-dimensional than those of ordinary people. His long black hair was tied up with a delicate crown, and the hanging hair was mixed in the middle.
Wearing many little braids.
The heaven is full and the eyes are like paint.
The corners of the lips seem to have a natural upward arc.
Although his appearance is enthusiastic and public, his temperament is restrained and gentle, like a sword decorated with luxurious gems. Don't be despised because of his appearance. No one knows whether there is a broken hair in the scabbard.
weapon!
None of this matters to Gong Cheng.
What he cares about is the boy's appearance.
This person's appearance looks very familiar.
At this moment, Gong Xiqiu, who was far behind the young man, also adjusted his breathing and raised his hand to wipe away the blood on his cheek. The wound was close to the eye. If it were farther away, the right eye might not be saved. Gong Xi
Qiu's eyes were injured many years ago. When Gong Cheng fought with him, he found that Gongxi Qiu's attacks in a certain direction would always cause him to freeze for a moment.
Uncontrolled distraction is the most taboo in a master duel.
Gong Cheng quickly seized the opportunity, and Gong Xiqiu also took this opportunity to counterattack at close range, leaving a deep scar visible on the bone on Gong Cheng's chest. Unfortunately, this scar was not fatal, and when he was strong
With the ability to recover, he would have healed long ago.
"Are you also from the Gongxi clan?"
Gong Cheng's eyes did not leave the young man's face.
Still using a positive statement.
But the young man asked him: "Are you sparring?"
Gong Cheng: "..."
The young man turned his back to Gong Xiqiu. Naturally, Gong Xiqiu couldn't see his face, but that didn't stop him from rolling his eyes at this stupid question: "Which of your eyes saw that this was a sparring match? Boy, don't stay here in vain.
Life, stay cool wherever you can!"
Gong Xiqiu's voice was very fierce.
The first thing that makes him feel bad is that he doesn't want innocent people to lose their lives. Even though he looks embarrassed now, Gong Xiqiu still has a way to escape. He wants to find out as much as possible about Gong Cheng, know himself and the enemy, and win every battle in the future.
You have a better chance of winning if you meet each other. Who knows that someone unknown to the world will suddenly appear.
As for the boy’s outfit?
Gong Xiqiu really didn’t think much about it.
As far as he knew, the boy from the Xu family named Xu Quan privately took the lead in forming a society called "Gong Xiqiu Conservation Association". Coupled with the influence of some aristocratic families, Gong Xiqiu's dressing style became popular for a while.
.Among the brave warriors in Kang State, four or five out of ten like to braid their hair. The young man in front of me is probably also a fashionista.
Gong Cheng's response was to kill him with one palm.
Go straight to the face of the well-dressed young man.
Gong Xiqiu struck out with a weapon before the well-dressed boy could react. With Gong Cheng's current strength, his palms were both invulnerable to weapons and able to destroy gold and jade. The sharp blade of the snake halberd could not penetrate Gong Cheng's palm at all.
, but it is enough to use force to repel it.
Gong Xiqiu caught the handsomely dressed young man behind him and did not look back. He held the snake halberd in front of him: "Why bother to feel sorry for the people on the road? Or should I say, you are crazy. You always ask everyone you meet if they are from the Gongxi clan.
? How can there be so many people!"
It was bad luck for him to meet him.
Gong Cheng was lucky enough to meet him.
Haha, you hit me once and you want to hit me a second time?
Gong Cheng looked at him as if he was looking at a fool, or in other words, he thought Gong Xiqiu regarded him as a fool: "Passerby? Haha, Gong Xiqiu, do you think I am as blind as you?"
If these two faces are put together, do you dare to say that there is no relationship?
Gong Xiqiu only felt that Gong Cheng was inexplicable.
At this time, the handsomely dressed young man behind him stepped forward. The moment Gong Xiqiu saw his face clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he instantly understood why Gong Cheng suspected that the young man was also a member of the Gongxi clan. Without him, the young man's appearance was different from that of the Gong Xi clan.
They are quite similar to each other!
A thought raced in my mind.
The hallucination of gongs, drums and firecrackers rang in his ears.
Great nephew! Great nephew! Great nephew! Great nephew...
This person is definitely the eldest nephew!
Gong Xiqiu felt the blood in his body boiling, and even the pain was forgotten in his mind. Seeing this, Gong Cheng knew that his guess was true.
The well-dressed young man: "I am indeed from the Gongxi clan."
The hallucinations in Gong Xiqiu's ears became louder, his heartbeat was like a drum, and his lips were dry. He had thousands of words to talk about the past with his eldest nephew.
At this time, I heard my eldest nephew say: "Since you are not fighting but seeking revenge, I cannot allow you to kill my people."
Gong Xiqiu came back to his senses and his eyes were firm.
He grabbed his eldest nephew's shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Eldest nephew, step back. This man can't kill your second uncle or me. He was just playing with him. You go and wait elsewhere first. Let's wait."
Uncle and nephew can go back and reminisce about old times, okay?"
The well-dressed young man looked at him blankly: "Second uncle?"
Fang Yan, Chao Lian and Fourth Uncle Lin who were watching the battle were also dumbfounded. They knew that the two were of the same race, but they didn't know that they were related. Fang Yan brothers all looked at Uncle Lin for confirmation, and Shao Chong asked in a low voice: "
Is this true?"
Although Fourth Uncle Lin has not yet answered, just looking at the appearance of these two people, the three of them felt that this was true. They were actually uncle and nephew!
Fourth Uncle Lin was at a loss for a moment.
Then he said: "When we went to the Gongxi clan area, we didn't find any genealogy. We just saw a lit life lamp in a forbidden area... Jimo Yu said that the placement of the life lamp is also particular.
Xiqiu's life lantern and Shaobai's life lantern are very close to each other... maybe they are really uncles and nephews..."
Despite this, Fourth Uncle Lin always felt that something was wrong.
I couldn't remember it for a while.
Chao Lian and Fang Yan sighed in low voices: "This fate..."
It's really wonderful.
Fortunately, they were nearby and came over, otherwise Gong Xiqiu would have been seriously injured today even if he did not die. Now that the uncle and nephew are teaming up to deal with Gong Cheng, even if they cannot take him down, they will not let the other party get much benefit. At least, his life is completely guaranteed.
No worries.
If it's not enough, why don't we still have them?
Fourth Uncle Lin and Fang Yanke were both literary scholars.
The conversation between several people was not concealed, and it naturally fell into the ears of the three people on the battlefield. Jimo Qiu's eyes were dazed and confused for a moment.
