In early summer, the mountains in the North are green and the pines are like the sea. The crooked neck tree on the cliff was swaying in the wind. A young man wearing white trousers and a dark blue short-sleeved shirt was sitting on it with his legs dangling. I saw his head resting on the tree trunk with his hands, his eyes looking into the void, not knowing what he was thinking. "Yang Peng, you stinky boy, are you lazy again?" The young man was in a trance, when a middle-aged female Taoist wearing a moon-white Taoist robe came under the big tree. However, what she held in her hand was not a whisk, but a large bundle. Judging from the dusty look on her face, she seemed to have just returned from a distant place.
"Ah? The master is back!" The young man exclaimed, turned over and jumped down from the tree, knelt down with his hands clasped in his fists and saluted: "Disciple has seen the master!" "Okay, stop pretending in front of me!" The female Taoist waved her hands, and then Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he said: "Sit down, I have something to say to you." The young man quickly sat cross-legged opposite the master and looked at the master curiously.
"You have been staying with me for four years, and I have never told you your origin. As for you, you managed to save your life from the Khitan people when they were clearing grass in the valley. You can be considered as escaping from the clutches of the Khitan people. A great blessing. However, even though you didn’t say anything, I know that you have your own ambitions and it is impossible to follow me to the end of your life in the mountains and forests."
The female Taoist put down the baggage in her hands, clapped her hands and said, "Peng'er, really speaking, we are fellow travelers. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let you stay here for such a long time and teach you martial arts. Now. , you are already nineteen, it is time for you to know who I am." As the female Taoist narrated, Yang Peng's expression suddenly became rich. It turns out that this female Taoist has a great background! She was actually the mother of Qilang Yang of the Song Dynasty. When she found out that Yang Qilang had been stabbed to death by thousands of arrows from the Khitan people, she became so angry that she did not return to Bianjing. Instead, she became a nun in a nearby mountain and became the leader of the "Yuxi Sect". The Holy Mother of Yellow Lotus, Lin Qing'er!
She was originally born into a boat family on the Southeast Canal in Shandong Province. She began practicing boxing with her father when she was young. She was even more proficient in plum blossom darts and could kill people without being seen! At the age of nine, she began to perform in Bianjing with her father. She was rescued by Taijun She, married to Yang Ye, and gave birth to a son named Yang Qilang, the seventh in the list. Lin Qinger traveled all over the country and saw a lot.
At that time, the Khitan people were expanding and rampant in the Song Dynasty. The people in Cangzhou often plowed grass and valleys. The people of the Song Dynasty here were simply miserable. Lin Qing'er heard that her son died at the hands of the Khitan people. Lin Qing'er was not Like other widows in the Yang family, Lin Qing'er was quite disappointed with the emperor of the Song Dynasty. There was no way that she could work for the emperor of the Zhao family because of the treacherous ministers in power. So she walked out and saw the people in the north living in dire straits along the way. Lin Qing'er Qing'er took in orphans here near Cangzhou, all of whom were girls, and founded the Yuxi Sect.
Once again, I met a Khitan man who rescued an old monk from Dacaogu. When he was dying, he gave Lin Qing'er a book of Plum Blossom Boxing, telling her to find a way to escape and pass on the Plum Blossom Boxing. At this time, there were only nine personal girls left around Lin Qing'er. When Yang Peng saw the master finished speaking, he pondered for a moment and asked: "Master, why haven't I seen the older sisters who follow you?" Fortunately, Lin Qing'er was immersed in her painful thoughts and did not hear what Yang Peng said to herself. Talk to yourself.
"Master, please don't be sad, I will avenge them!" Yang Peng suddenly stood up, clenched his fists with both hands, stared at the north and said, "I swear to kill all those Khitan dogs and avenge Yang Qilang!" "Peng'er, don't worry about me, I'm not sad. Lin Qing'er raised her head, looked at Yang Peng and said: "I only have hatred in my heart. Unfortunately, one person's power is limited after all. The Khitans are so numerous that they can't kill them. . When I went out this time, I first went to Muke Village, and then to Youzhou. The Khitan dog became more and more arrogant, and I almost got entangled and couldn't escape. "
"Oh, there is such a thing?" Yang Peng knew how capable his master was, so he asked in surprise: "Master, you are not injured, are you? You have been out for more than two months, what have you been busy with? "It's nothing. I just went out to do two things." Lin Qing'er said with a smile: "This year is the sixth anniversary of the murder of your five uncles. I went out and killed five Khitan dogs who were doing evil in the grass hunting valley." It's a memorial. The other thing is for you. Look -" Lin Heier grabbed the baggage and opened it before he finished speaking. Then he pulled out a leather holster that looked like a vest. However, there is a circle of white objects inserted outside. With a flick of her right hand, she took out a shiny object with five points and handed it to Bai Shujie.
Yang Peng took it and saw that the object was only three inches in size. It was the plum blossom dart that he had been practicing for four years!
"Here, take it from Sheng'er. These are the eighteen bright silver plum blossom darts specially made for you by the master." Lin Qing'er handed the vest to Yang Peng and said, "You have to practice more in the future, otherwise your hand will be raw." Too bad."
"Don't worry, Master, I won't take this kind of life-saving method lightly!" Yang Peng took the vest with his left hand and threw his right hand back. A white light flashed and a branch as thick as a little finger was cut off twenty meters away. Sheng's figure flashed, and he caught up with the plum blossom dart and held it in his hand. "Well, it seems that you have not been lazy in the past two months, and your physical skills have improved." Lin Qing'er looked at Yang Peng and said with a smile: "However, just this kind of sharp move is not enough. The two phoenixes are flying together. The techniques also require more practice.”
"I will remember your teachings, practice hard, and strive to get down from the mountain for revenge as soon as possible!" Yang Peng put on the vest and felt that it fit him very well. He couldn't help but feel grateful to the master in his heart: "Master, you are the one who saved me." I haven't repaid you for your kindness, and you keep worrying about these things again!" "What nonsense are you talking about?" Lin Qing'er waved her hand: "I am the only disciple like you, and I know that I have been with you for more than four years. You are an upright and promising good boy, so naturally I will have no reservations about you. However, martial arts alone is not enough nowadays, so I have prepared another gift for you."
With that said, Lin Qing'er took out a small baggage from the baggage and handed it to Yang Peng and said: "This is a hand crossbow. Learning from the skills of the barbarians to defeat the barbarians is the only way to go!"
Yang Peng took the baggage with both hands and felt his hands heavy. When I opened the bag, I saw two hand crossbows with bright blue paint! One of them was a hand crossbow with twenty arrows. The other is a hand crossbow with ten bows and arrows, known as the Ten Sons Company in the world. Yang Peng was inexplicably excited when he saw that this good thing that he had always wanted to have in his dream was in his hands. He turned over and over looking at the treasure in his hands, his face flushed, and it took him a long time to react. So he quickly put down the baggage in his hands, knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the master respectfully.
"Get up!" Lin Qing'er raised her hands slightly and said with a smile: "I have never used this thing. I heard it is very powerful. I searched for it for a long time before I got it from the home of a high-ranking Khitan official. These are the only things there, I got them all back, you can see for yourself."
"Master, you dared to break into the Khitan dog's house alone. You are so powerful!" Yang Peng got up, grabbed the crossbow and said, "This is an extremely powerful guy." After giving the master a brief explanation, Yang Peng After opening the bag, I discovered that in addition to the two hand crossbows, there were also ten bridge-shaped bows and four arrow clips that were already filled with arrows. There are also five sandalwood boxes. When you open them, you can see that they are all black bows and arrows. Each box contains one hundred and fifty bows and arrows, plus forty loose bows and arrows, for a total of seven hundred and ninety bows and arrows. I don’t know who this Khitan official is, but he is really awesome. He actually made so many hand crossbows and arrows.
"Master, you are so kind!" Yang Peng laughed loudly: "Two hand crossbows and seven hundred bows and arrows cost hundreds of taels of silver! This is a lot of wealth!"
Lin Qing'er straightened her face and said seriously: "What kind of wealth is this? On the one hand, it is to save your life, but on the other hand, I want you to kill more Khitan dogs for me! If you dare to use these things to do evil in the future, even if If you go to the end of the world, I will also settle the score with you!" Yang Peng knelt down in front of his master, pointing his right index finger to the sky and said: "I, Yang Peng, hereby swear that the weapons in my hands are designed to kill Khitan dogs, bullies and bandits who do all kinds of evil. Bully! If you violate this oath, you will be punished by heaven and earth!"
"Okay, I believe you, otherwise I wouldn't have prepared these things for you!" Lin Qing'er helped Bai Shujie stand up, and then said: "I have already taught you everything I can teach you. There is no one in the world who can't The banquet has broken up. Now is a troubled time, so you clean up tonight and go down the mountain to experience tomorrow. You don’t have to say goodbye to me when you leave. I hope you will kill more Khitan dogs in the future and everything will go well!"
After Lin Qing'er finished speaking, she turned around and left without hesitation, and then disappeared in a few flashes.
Yang Peng looked at his master's back, and the tears in his eyes finally couldn't help but flow down. He fell to his knees with a plop, kowtowed nine times, and then whispered: "Master, don't worry, I won't let you down! Khitan dogs, just wash your necks and wait." , your uncle will be here soon!"
It turns out that this Yang Peng is not that Yang Peng. He only knew that when he and his bodyguard were playing in Cangzhou, they were killed by the Khitan for some unknown reason and turned into a fireball and turned into ashes. Also, he seemed to have died in a big fireball.
However, during the entire killing process, he did not feel pain. He only felt as if his soul was out of his body and he seemed to be dreaming. When he woke up again, he didn't expect that it was already late at night with a sky full of stars. His body was in severe pain, and he was lying in a ravine overgrown with weeds. It took a lot of effort for him to get up, and when he looked around by the starlight, he was immediately frightened out of his wits! It turned out that he was sitting on a pile of corpses! Yes, just a lot of corpses! As far as the eye can see, there are bones everywhere! There were three layers of corpses under him, no fewer than fifty!
This discovery made his heart beat rapidly, as if it would jump out of his chest. After finally gathering enough breath, I climbed up the opposite hillside and got into a clump of weeds. I couldn't hold on anymore and passed out. In a daze, stars were flashing in his mind, and all kinds of information were rolling around. In the blink of an eye, it was early morning, and Yang Peng finally woke up again. Only then did he realize that this body turned out to be another person! Even Yang Peng, who was rescued by his master, seemed to have been called Yang Peng before. I just don’t know where I am from and who else is in my family. Yang Peng didn't know anything about this. Yang Peng is also a free and easy person. Besides, he has a very powerful master, so there is nothing wrong with him.
Fortunately, because the pile of dead bodies in the north room is already full, there is no way to wait until spring for them to be processed together. After hearing what the Khitan people said, the villagers had no choice but to call a cart to drag out the corpses and throw them into Dongshangou. By God's will, another Yang Peng came back to life on this corpse. With a strong spirit and tenacious will, Yang Peng finally climbed out of the mass grave. However, in the cold winter, with only a torn sack on his body, he could only wait for death.
At the desperate moment when he was calling Tian Tian and the earth and the earth for help, Lin Qing'er, the Holy Mother of the Yellow Lotus, happened to pass by. Occasionally, he heard a faint shout coming from the pile of rocks, so he carried him to Wangxian Cave in Tianhua Mountain. Then he tried his best to finally bring Yang Peng back from the brink of death.
After more than half a year of nursing, Yang Peng finally regained his original energy. After seeking his advice, Mother Huanglian officially accepted him as her disciple and began to teach the secret art of Plum Blossom Boxing. There are no years in the mountains, and four years pass in the blink of an eye. Yang Peng's three-star stakes and eight-gram stakes are already quite popular, but what he puts the most effort into is his master Lin Qing'er's unique skill - plum blossom darts! It has been possible to fire three darts in unison without missing a beat.
Lin Qing'er was the first person Yang Peng met when he came to this era. Not to mention that he later taught him skills, nor did he put himself in danger in order to obtain weapons for him. Taking life-saving as an example, it is also a rebirth of parents in a complete sense. Especially during the treatment and recuperation process, Lin Qing'er's maternal nature flourished and she could be said to be extremely protective of Yang Peng. Because of this, when Yang Peng heard that his master arranged for him to go down the mountain to practice, the attachment and reluctance in Yang Peng's heart made him heartbroken. He also knew that the reason why the master turned around and left resolutely was because of this feeling of reluctance.
If Yang Peng hadn't been here, if he didn't know what would happen next in the Song Dynasty, he might really have decided to stay with his master. Therefore, when Yang Peng kowtows and bids farewell to his master, it is an expression of infinite gratitude that comes from his heart and cannot be faked at all. Yang Peng thought about everything over and over again, and finally gritted his teeth: "Don't say anything, it's more serious to try the hand crossbow! Otherwise, when it comes time to save lives, if you can't hit it accurately, you will have let down the master." expectations!"
After packing up his baggage and going to a sheltered place under the cliff, Yang Peng twisted his hands around the crossbow, took a deep breath, stabilized his mind, raised his right hand and pulled the trigger at the mountain wall fifty meters away.
Yang Peng felt very familiar with the hand crossbow in his hand. Whether it is mechanical structure or various performance, you can get it at your fingertips. But after all, this was the first time he had seen this thing, and it was also the first time he had used it personally, so he had no confidence at all.
When the hand crossbow in his right hand fired the first burst, he felt his right arm shake violently with a snap, and the entire hand crossbow almost jumped up and fell to the ground. As for the bow and arrow, even he himself didn't know where they flew.
"Damn it, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry!" Yang Peng cursed, reluctantly put down the hand crossbow in his right hand, and picked up the ten-shot hand crossbow again. After carefully recalling the essentials of the action, he stood sideways, turned his right hand downwards, aimed at a small tree trunk about twenty meters in front of him, and pulled the trigger.
With a whooshing sound, the small tree trunk shook, and Yang Peng knew that he had hit it. With his first success, his confidence finally returned. Aiming at a thumb-sized scar on the tree trunk, he fired the remaining nine arrows in one breath. Then I ran to the little tree and took a look, seven out of nine!
After replacing the bow and arrow clip, Yang Peng felt the hand crossbow in his hand again, and then he seemed to have returned to his previous life, with his whole spirit and energy integrated into the gun. This feeling lasted for nearly ten minutes before Yang Peng pulled the trigger on a small branch as thick as a little finger.
When the arrow arrives, the branch breaks! "The man and the arrow are integrated into one, like an arm and a finger. This is the key to the crossbow! It seems that this technique is not only applicable to the bows and arrows of later generations!" Yang Peng muttered in his mouth, shaking his right hand constantly. Keep pulling the trigger at the same time. Nine bows and arrows were shot out, and nine twigs fell down!
"Hahaha! Archers are born. This time, they still start from the twenty-meter trunk and end with small branches. By the time he has destroyed the ninety bows and arrows, the small tree is already bare. Because of the use With his left-handed dart skills and plum-blossom pile skills, Bai Shujie's strength and movement skills go without saying. Using the ten-shot shell gun with his left hand, the difficulties he faced were not as difficult as he imagined.
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
