Chapter 103: The Plague-Faced God
In the morning, the weather is cool. The dew rolls down and the ground is wet. At this time, it was Shu Shuang, seeing that the population was getting less and less, Lao Wang looked for a topic and asked: "Dongjia, what are you doing in Jiangning, I heard that it has not been peaceful there recently?"
Jiangning is close to the Yangtze River, and the Great Zhou is on the opposite bank, now is a good time to mobilize troops, and it is strange to be peaceful.
"Take a boat, go up the river, and go to Bashu. ”
"Yo, go so far, I heard that it seems to pass through Yun Mengze, it's always dangerous. ”
"It's dangerous. The ghost cried and replied, "Not only do you have to pass through Yunmengze, but also through Wushan." ”
"Wushan, I also know this, I heard that there is a goddess over there, who is as powerful as the white lady, isn't that the thing?"
"That's true. ”
The two chatted with each other, Cai Wei sat in the carriage, listened to the conversation outside, patted the dishonest mouth, pushed open the window, looked out, his eyes were a little confused, and he couldn't help but look back in the direction of Hangzhou City. However, I only saw the vast woods, and the city of Hangzhou had already been left far behind.
Inexplicably, a little scary. I couldn't help but close the window and grasp the autumn water sword.
When I arrived in Jiangning, I found an inn, paid the money, and the coachman Wang left. There is a kind of solemn atmosphere everywhere here, officers and soldiers can be seen patrolling the streets at all times, there are very few pedestrians on the streets, and the pedestrians on the streets are also in a hurry, and there is no appearance of a prosperous city at all.
The inn that Cai Wei brought and the ghost cried went to the dock to look for a ship to Bashu. There are not a few such ships, so they are not difficult to find. When he arrived at the docks, he didn't ask the boats one by one, which was too stupid, but found the tooth man.
Tooth people are not hard to find, these tooth people are also working around, and they will even take the initiative to find you. However, there are a lot of ill-intentioned people mixed in there, and you need to identify them yourself.
Ghost Cry found the tooth man, paid the money, and under the introduction of the tooth man, he met the owner of a cargo ship, a merchant known as Zhang Shanren. Good people are not necessarily good, but they must be rich, this is common sense.
Zhang Shanren has several large ships, all of which come and go to run goods. On the river, between Bashu and Jiangning, it has been running for decades, and it is reputable.
The two met in the tea shop, there were few guests in the tea shop, and the singing was weak, which made people upset. Introduce each other and take a seat. As soon as he sat down, the ghost cried and took off the hat, Zhang Shanren frowned slightly, then covered it and asked, "Your Excellency is from Shu?"
"Yes, after years of wandering, I want to go home. ”
Zhang Shandao: "But it's from my hometown, but I see Your Excellency familiar with it." ”
The ghost cried and was slightly stunned, and said, "My appearance is not common. ”
Zhang Shanren slapped the table and laughed: "I remember, the poetry and sword are both peerless in the East Li Yu, and the plague-faced god is in the West Yang An." ”
Ghost Cry is a little black-faced, the plague-faced god is not a good name, at the beginning, the names of Li Yu and Yang An were called East Li Yu and West Yang An, which means two local young heroes. As a result, after they duel, each of them had four more words, and the ghost cry could be imagined with his ass, which must have been a good thing done by those big girls and little daughters-in-law with broken mouths.
For this name, Yang An was not less angry, and practiced swords more diligently, he was determined to wait for his swordsmanship to reach a higher level, defeat Li Yu within three moves, and let those big girls and little daughters-in-law see how powerful he Yang An was.
It's a pity that the young Yang An didn't think clearly, it was not a matter of swordsmanship, but a matter of appearance. It's strange to say, Yang An's parents are handsome and beautiful, but they gave birth to a son with a pair of fierce eyes, which is very strange.
Seeing that the ghost was crying and his face was black, Zhang Shanren hurriedly changed the topic: "Brother Yang An washed Zhangjiabao with one sword and one sword, and the three tigers of the Zhang family and 29 of their disciples were killed by the sword of the Yang An brothers.
The tooth man on the side was terrified when he heard it, and when he saw the ghost crying and dressing up, he knew that this was a ruthless person, but he didn't expect it to be so ruthless. 29 people, and they all seem to be people who practice martial arts, and they were killed by him alone, such ruthless people are absolutely rare.
"It's been almost ten years. Ghost Cry sighed: "Now, my name is Ghost Cry, not Yang An." ”
"Oh, is something else?"
The ghost cried and didn't answer, and Zhang Shanren didn't ask more, but changed his words: "Since the ghost crying brother doesn't want to say more, then I won't ask, to be honest, this name is quite appropriate, cough cough ......"
The two chatted for a while, and Zhang Shanren talked about some topics in Bashu, such as Tianfu City, which is not peaceful. The envoys of the Great Song Dynasty, the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the Great Qin Envoys gathered together, all of them seemed to want the support of Bashu, but the king of Sichuan, who had the highest power and prestige in Bashu, seemed to have the heart to stand on his own.
After some small talk, a cup of tea was over. The ghost cried and asked, "I want to take a boat into Shu, I don't know how much it will need?"
Zhang Shanren said heroically: "Brother Ghost Cry wants to take my boat, it's my honor, where do you dare to collect money." ”
"What does that require me to do?"
Zhang Shanren laughed: "It's nothing, it's not peaceful everywhere recently, and bandits are rampant on the river, especially Yun Mengze, which is even more dangerous." When the time comes, when he encounters danger, he hopes that the ghost crying brother will help. ”
"Well, after all, it's the same boat, and I'll shoot when it's time to shoot. ”
"It has been decided over there, and after 3 days, at five o'clock, I am waiting for your great arrival. ”
Zhang Shanren took the initiative to pay the money, the three of them went out, and the tooth man took the lead in saying goodbye.
The ghost cried and arched his hand: "Farewell." ”
Zhang Shanren also bowed his hand and replied: "Farewell." ”
Back at the inn, Ghost Cry saw that the inn was surrounded by soldiers.
What's going on???
He walked over with a question mark in his head, and then was stopped by the soldiers: "Someone stops." ”
Looking at the spear on top of his chest, Ghost Cry took a half step back with his brows and pointed to the inn: "My sister is inside, what happened?"
"Back off. The soldier yelled.
The corner of Devil's crying eyes twitched, and his fingers moved. Because of the inconvenience of long knives, he didn't bring long knives, but short knives and flying knives were on his body. Once he strikes, he is sure to kill this soldier with one blow, but the consequences will be very serious.
As if sensing the threat, several soldiers came over and pointed a couple of spears at them: "Stand back." ”
Ghost Cry drifted his gaze to the inn, a little anxious in his heart. Looking at these soldiers, they are thin or fat, not strong, they are not fully armored, they walk and float, and their posture of holding guns is not rigorous, they are definitely not elite soldiers, or even forbidden soldiers. Such a soldier, and it is also a soldier of the Southern Song Dynasty, the corruption of military discipline is so bad that the ghost can cry and think about it.
Cai Wei is alone, her appearance is absolutely beautiful, and with a huge amount of wealth, these soldiers will inevitably have evil thoughts.
"Who's making trouble out there?" an officer walked out of the inn with a big belly, and a soldier whispered a few words in his ear, and his eyes narrowed.
"Hey, are you a spy sent by the Qin State. ”
Looking at this officer's style, the ghost cry felt even more bad in his heart, and his murderous intent gradually rose, and he said in a deep voice: "No. ”
"Take off your hat and show it to Ben. ”
The ghost cried and took off the hat, and his heart skipped a beat with his long and narrow eyes, as if he had been targeted by a tiger. He instinctively took a step back and was supported by the soldiers beside him, who whispered: "General, it's okay!"
The officer was annoyed and angry, and cried viciously to the ghost: "Don't think that I can't recognize it if you squint your eyes, you are a spy sent by the Qin State." Come, catch him for me. ”
As soon as the words fell, a few spears came to his chest, and the ghost cried and bared his teeth, and a fierce smile appeared on his face.
With a wave of his hand, he swung a few spears, and then, brutally squeezed along the shaft, and with a slight blow to the shoulder, several untrained soldiers staggered.
Seeing that the time for the ghost to cry was in front of him in the blink of an eye, the officer's expression changed drastically, and he lowered his head and drew his sword. With a bang, the short knife was unsheathed, and a soldier stood in front of the officer.
A piercing sound of gold and iron clashing exploded, and the soldier's saber came out of his hand, and he was elbowed in the face by the ghost crying, and his eyes were black, he lost consciousness, his body stiffened, and his eyes and nose were bleeding and he fell down. Turning his head, there was a tiger roar, like thunder on the ground, and the other soldier next to the officer trembled, and the saber in his hand fell to the ground. When I rolled my eyes, I was scared and fainted.
And at this time, the officer's knife had not yet been drawn. And the short knife of the ghost cry has been attached to his neck.
The other soldiers wanted to rush up to the rescue, but they were glared at by the ghost's cry, and their faces turned pale suddenly, and they retreated again and again, not daring to step forward. The officer tried to speak, but was hit with a short knife by Devil Cry, and the blade broke through the skin, and blood flowed out. Immediately, his lips trembled, and he didn't dare to speak.
Before Ghost Cry could communicate with the officer, several soldiers flew out of the inn, and a white shadow appeared at the door with a sword, and his beautiful face was full of evil spirits, red, and very cute.
"Big Brother Ghost. The white figure was Cai Wei, and when she saw the ghost crying, she cried out happily. Ghost Cry put a knife against the chubby officer, and said to Cai Wei, "Let's go, let's go in." ”
