Chapter 671 News from Bianjing, Shi Xiu went to Hedong
As soon as Qiongying, a little girl, settled down in Tongtian County, she was thinking about finding the talented person she had discovered who had the unique skill of flying rocks. Now that she had arrived in the county, Song Zhenniang couldn't stop her lively and playful spirit.
My dear daughter, who was used to it, just gave her a few words of advice as there were a lot of expatriates inside and outside the county town, so don't just play around, and go back home early when it gets dark.
Since he arrived at the county town on the same day, it was convenient for Qiongying to look for the Tianchi scholar in the village shed built outside the city. Now that he had shown off his skill of flying rocks, Qiongying was filled with joy, and she hurried to the Tianchi scholar.
In front of him, those bright eyes were full of expectation: "Uncle, your skills are really great, can you teach me?"
If this were said by a big man who had been in the world for a long time and asked the other party to teach him his skills, it would certainly be unreasonable, but if it were said by an eleven or twelve-year-old girl who was also smart and lovely, it would feel different.
Well, Tianchi Xiushi also had a very good impression of this little girl Qiongying. He shook his head and said with a smile: "If my skills were great, I wouldn't have to be homeless in such an embarrassing way. I would have to follow a large number of refugees to Tongtian County.
Come and check it out. Besides, you are a girl and you are not hanging out in the world, so what is the use of learning the skill of hitting flying rocks?"
At this time, Qiong Yingying was very confident. She immediately said: "I learned your skills, uncle. Not only can I protect my mother, but I can also help my elder brother. My father was ruined by the bandit leader Tian Hu."
I also want to avenge his life one day!"
"Oh? So it turns out that you are the poor person who suffered because of the chaos caused by Tian Hu's gang..."
Tianchi Scholars originally resented that the powerful men under Tian Hu were too arrogant and forced him to leave his hometown, so he also hoped that someone could eradicate Tian Hu and all the thieves who followed him to cause chaos as soon as possible. According to Qiong Ying,
After all, it also gave him a feeling of sympathy.
At this time, Tianchi Xiushi looked at Qiong Ying again and said: "I see that the carriage you are riding in is not far from the generals in the army. The Xiao Tang and Xiao Renxia who went to Hedong Road for business are exactly what you said.
Big brother? Haha... If it were him, then Xiao Renxia would be surrounded by heavy soldiers at all times, and his martial arts skills are also superb. What can a little girl like you do to help him? "
Hearing this, Qiong Ying immediately shook her head and said: "It's different. They say that if someone gives you a little kindness, you should repay it with a spring. Big brother Xiaotang has rescued my mother and me again and again, and now he is willing to take him in."
We, I can't always accept his care with peace of mind. It's just that the eldest brother is a high official, and there should be maids in the mansion. I also want to learn a skill, so that even if something happens in the future, I won't do it again.
Teach my eldest brother to be distracted from worrying about me and my mother."
After hearing this, Tianchi Xiushi nodded, and suddenly joked: "You girl, you are also a person who cares about love and kindness, but when Xiao Renxia rescued you mother and daughter, you have always remembered his kindness. If I am willing
How will you repay me for teaching you how to fight flying rocks?"
"Uncle, if you say this, I will take it as your promise..."
Qiongying's big black eyes suddenly turned into two crescent moons when she smiled. She obediently came to the Tianchi scholar, opened the oil bag in her slender hand, and said with a smile: "Uncle,
Aren’t you full yet? There are also roasted chicken and pancakes here. Can I squeeze your shoulders and beat your legs for you?”
Although my magical skill of flying rocks is not a top-notch martial arts secret, once you learn it, you will not be afraid of opponents who are far more capable than you. You are a good girl, and you can't hold a roast chicken. Are you trying to trick me into teaching you this unique skill by pinching your shoulders and beating your legs?
The Tianchi scholar was a bit dumbfounded by Qiongying's begging, but some methods are very effective when used by certain people. Qiongying's sweet and cute little model made the Tianchi scholar feel very fond of him. If anyone was born with this If the rich and powerful old man from the green forest tried to do this with him, I am afraid that he would have been beaten with flying stones by the Tianchi warriors long ago...
This girl is smart and well-behaved. She is also very close to Xiao Renxia, who is about to eradicate the Hedong bandits Shouda Hu. There is some good luck between me and her... Tianchi Xiushi thought to himself and pretended to be serious. He said: "Wait a minute, even if I am willing to teach you, you must agree not to say a word about learning flying stones with me, not even to your mother, nor to Xiao Renxia."
Qiongying was startled when she heard this. After thinking for a moment, she nodded again and again like a chicken pecking at rice.
Seeing this, the Tianchi scholar pondered for a moment, and then said: "If you want to teach me this skill, I have to look at your qualifications. Even those heroes with superb skills in the world may not be suitable to learn my skill. I Let me teach you a few words first, please remember..."
In addition to the skills of eyes and ears that require daily practice, the Tianchi scholar told Qiong Ying some basic tips on how to shoot marbles and how to use the force of the wrist and fingers when firing arrows with concealed weapons. In order to learn this skill, Qiong Ying Naturally, I listened very attentively.
After the Tianchi scholar explained it, he asked Qiongying to pick up a round stone and try to hit it on the trunk of an old tree fifty steps away. Qiongying held her breath and concentrated, and she followed the method taught to her by the Tianchi scholar. The jade-like white wrist suddenly flicked, and the boulders flew out, but a loud sound knocked the tree trunk, which was as thick as a bowl, straight.
"Uncle...ah, Master! I hit it!" Qiongying saw that she had hit the target, and she immediately cheered, and her cheeks flushed with joy.
The scholar from Tianchi saw that Qiong Ying had achieved some success in his first try, and he secretly said in his heart: It turns out that this girl has a very high level of understanding and qualifications, and it would be perfect for her to learn my technique of hitting flying stones, just as I taught her back then. The disciple is so smart... Haha, this girl named Qiong Ying is beautiful and smart, and my disciple is also handsome and handsome. If Qiong Ying grows a few years older, he will be called my disciple. They are a talented man and a beautiful woman, a perfect match.

From that day on, the masters of Tianchi taught each other the introductory secrets of beating flying stones, and also taught Qiongying how to hone her eyesight and ears. Qiongying had to come to learn skills from the masters of Tianchi every day in her spare time. Not only was she talented, but she was also willing to learn from them. After hard work, her progress is naturally very fast. Fortunately, Qiongying was not as quiet and delicate as ordinary ladies, Xiaojiabiyu, and it was very convenient to pick up stones to practice. Therefore, when she practiced by herself every day, others suddenly noticed There will be no doubt about it. After some time, Qiongying has practiced throwing stones, and has developed a certain degree of know-how on how to use force.
As for Xiao Tang, after he returned to the government office, Luo Jian, the more prudent and prudent martial arts scholar, naturally attacked him lightly and even used his body as a bait to lure Tian Hu to lead an army of thieves to attack Mianshang. Luo Jian was dissatisfied. When he heard that Xiao Tang even went out of the city on a single bridge and marched through the four gates to temporarily force the enemy back, he even boasted and glared in front of Xiao Tang, saying that he was handsome and reckless.
But Luo Jian could only complain for a while at most. As the commander-in-chief of the army, Xiao Tang sometimes chose to take a sideways approach in battles. This battle was another great victory. Although Luo Jian complained on the lips, he couldn't help but admire him in his heart.
Xiao Tang has extraordinary courage, so following him to Hedong Road this time is a worthwhile trip.
In the next few days, Xiao Tang was still in Tongtian County. It is said that he had also sent a messenger to report to the court the current situation of banditry in Hedong. In the past few days, there must have been news that the Bianjing Privy Council had mobilized other Forbidden Army troops.
News of assisting Xiao Tang. After all, although Xiao Tang severely defeated the Hedong bandits led by Tian Hu in Mianshang County, in terms of the number of troops, more troops are needed to cooperate to further reduce and suppress the bandits roaming around Hedong Road.
Space.
Suddenly one day, before there was news from the Privy Council that troops were coming to help, there was someone waiting for Xiaotang Mansion in Bianjing. Dozens of his followers rushed to Tongdi County first. The brother who came was none other than the general manager of the Xiao Mansion, Shi Sanlang Shi.
show.
Xiao Tang led his troops outside, and it was not convenient for him to communicate with the various villages in the green forest under his command. Therefore, he also needed his confidants who stayed at the Bianjing Mansion to report the news to Xiao Tang in a timely manner. He only had control over the Bianjing Mansion and the market.
Shi Xiu, his confidant on all matters, came to Tongdan County in person, which surprised Xiao Tang.
However, when Xiao Tang and Shi Xiu met in the county government hall, the always introverted and capable Gossip Saburo was full of joy. When he saw Xiao Tang, he immediately said: "Brother, great congratulations! Congratulations on your death!"
