Xiao Tianzuo was still unwilling to give in. He still wanted to make Yang Peng look embarrassed. In his opinion, the so-called arrow hitting the golden bird's head must have been fabricated by the princess. It was nothing more than an excuse made by the eldest princess to win over this big grain merchant. He had been to the eldest princess's mansion and knew the location of the golden sparrow head. Based on his own experience, he believed that unless the legendary ancient divine arrow general was resurrected, it would be impossible for anyone to do it.
Yelu Guanyin sneered and said, "Since the Privy Councilor wants to see it, eldest brother will naturally not refuse." Xiao Tianzuo saw that the other party was so happy, and he couldn't help but beat his heart: Could it be true that the arrow shot the golden sparrow's head? No, no, no one can do it! She must have done this on purpose, trying to trick me into canceling the competition! Humph, you are so smart, I won’t be fooled!
After thinking this, Xiao Tianzuo smiled and said: "I don't think it's just me who wants to see, I'm afraid everyone here wants to see." Many people started to boo; Yelu Hanyu looked at Yang Peng with burning eyes. Xiao Tianzuo continued: "But it's too boring to perform alone, why don't I recommend someone to compete with Boss Jin." Then he shouted: "Qiongyao Nayan!"
Among the crowd outside the waterside pavilion, a high-pitched voice said: "The general is here!" Everyone followed the sound and saw a tall, thin man with a ferocious expression walking into the waterside pavilion. He cupped his fists and bowed to Yelu Hanyu: " The last general, Qiong Yao Nayan, pays homage to the imperial aunt!" Yelu Hanyu looked at him and asked, "Are you the legendary arrow general who killed two eagles with one arrow?" Qiong Yao Nayan said excitedly: "That's right. It’s the last general!”
Yelv Guanyin said to Yang Peng: "He is a powerful general under the command of Beiying. His archery skills can be said to be one of the best in Daliao!" Yang Peng nodded. Yelu Hanyu turned to look at Chen Xiao and asked, "My dear nephew, are you willing to compete with this Qiong Yao General Nayan in archery?" Yang Peng stood up, walked to the middle, cupped his fists towards Yelu Hanyu and said: " It doesn't matter who you compete with." Qiong Yao Nayan glanced at Yang Peng and snorted.
Yelu Hanyu said: "Since two people are competing in skills, there must be no reward." Then he took off a mutton-fat white jade flying phoenix jade pendant from his waist and lifted it up, "I will give this jade pendant to the winner." Qiong. Yao Nayan showed excitement, cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Auntie, for the reward!" Yelu Hanyu smiled slightly, but Yelu Guanyin snorted coldly.
Yelv Guanyin called her female guard and ordered her to go outside immediately to get the Cloud Chuan Bow. The female guard agreed and ran down. Yang Peng has always carried this bow with him since he got the Cloud Chuan Bow. Today's visit to Yelu Hanyu's birthday party is no exception. However, before entering the door, the Cloud Chuan Bow was brought along with Yang Xiong and everyone who came with him. The secret guard remained outside and was not brought in.
After a while, the Cloud-Cuanming Bow and arrows were brought in. Yelu Guanyin took the Cloud-Chuanying Bow and Wolf Fang Arrow from the female guard and turned to hand them to Yang Peng. The two looked at each other and smiled, and Yang Peng took the Cloud Chuan Bow. At this time, someone also sent Nayan his hard bow and arrows.
Qiong Yao Nayan glanced at Chen Xiao, smiled coldly, pointed to a red lantern hanging on the porch in the distance, and said proudly: "That lantern is at least two hundred steps away from here. I can kill it with just one arrow." Shoot it down!" Then he took out a wolf fang and put it on the bowstring, exhaled and drew his bow while bending the bow to the full moon. The arrowhead, which shone with cold light, was aimed at the lantern two hundred steps away.
Boom! With the loud sound of the bowstring, everyone seemed to feel a strong wind blowing in front of them, and then they saw the lantern in the distance suddenly fall. There was a cry of exclamation at the scene, and someone praised loudly: "General Qiong Yao Nayan is indeed the divine arrow general of our Liao Kingdom! This archery skill is enough to shock the world!"
Qiong Yao Nayan smiled proudly and turned to look at Yang Peng. Xiao Tianzuo said with a smile: "Boss Jin, it's up to you now. If Boss Jin really can't do it, it doesn't matter, just a drink of wine as a penalty!" Someone started to cheer. Yelutri was very angry and said to Yang Peng: "Brother, let them see it!"
Yang Peng smiled, looked around, and saw two lanterns dimly flickering on the attic three hundred steps away, so he raised his finger and pointed there and said: "****** That attic lantern."
Everyone looked in the direction of Yang Peng's fingers and saw the two hazy lanterns in the attic in the distance. They couldn't help showing disbelief. Qiong Yao Nayan couldn't help but shout: "That's impossible! That's enough." It's three hundred steps away!" Xiao Tianzuo said angrily: "Boss Jin, don't brag about this nonsense, otherwise it will be embarrassing if you can't do it!"
Yang Peng smiled, took a spiked arrow from Yelu Guanyin, and said with a smile: "Give me another one." Yelvguanyin was stunned, and quickly took out another spiked arrow and handed it to Chen Xiao. Yang Peng fastened the two wolf-fang arrows to the bowstring at the same time. When everyone saw this, they showed shocked expressions. Some people said in disbelief: "He, he wants to fire both arrows at once! How is this possible? This is an archery skill that has been lost for a long time!" Xiao Tianzuo and Qiong Yaona Yanchen frowned, with a worried look on his face; Yelu Guanyin and Yelu Hanyu looked a little nervous and a little expectant.
Yang Peng glanced at the two lanterns in the distance, and suddenly pointed the full moon at the two lanterns. Everyone held their breath, and the two wolf-fang arrows were slowly fine-tuned in Yang Peng's hands. At this time, Yang Peng's expression was particularly cold, and his sharp temperament, as if a sword was unsheathed, made everyone suddenly forget about him, a businessman. I thought I was facing a legendary warrior.
Boom! The bowstring vibrated violently, and everyone's heart skipped a beat and they quickly looked into the distance. I saw that the two lanterns had already fallen down. The scene was completely silent, and many people looked dumbfounded. Xiao Tianzuo and Qiong Yao Nayan had the most exciting expressions, with their eyes wide open and their mouths open, as if they had swallowed a dead mouse alive.
Yang Peng put down the Cloud-Piercing Bow and asked with a smile: "Are you satisfied?" Everyone came to their senses, shouts of admiration broke out from the crowd, Xiao Tianzuo and Qiong Yao Nayan stared at Yang with the eyes of a monster. Peng; Yelu Guanyin was extremely excited. Yelu Hanyu stared at Yang Peng with his brilliant eyes.
Yelu Chun sighed: "My nephew's magic arrow skills are truly unprecedented! My nephew, if you are willing to give up business and join the army, you will definitely become a famous general of today's generation!" Yang Peng He clasped his fists modestly and said, "Uncle, you've received the award!" Yelu Chun waved his hands and said, "I don't deserve the award, not at all! My nephew, with his archery skills, I'm afraid I can only be the first warrior in the founding period of the Liao Dynasty. They can be compared to each other!"
Yelu Hanyu arrived surrounded by the maids, and everyone quickly bowed and saluted. Yelu Hanyu said magnanimously and gracefully: "There is no need to be polite." Everyone straightened up. Yelu Hanyu walked up to Yang Peng, looked at Yang Peng with her beautiful eyes, and lightly opened her red lips: "Looking at the astonishing archery skills of my nephew, I know that my nephew is really a warrior!" Then he handed over the mutton-fat white jade. Feifeng Jade Pendant, "I'll give you this as a reward."
"Thank you, Auntie Huang!" Yang Peng took the jade pendant with both hands. Their fingers touched inadvertently, and both of them couldn't help but feel shocked.
Everyone returned to their seats one after another, and the banquet began again. Many guests were talking about Yang Peng's astonishing archery skills just now. It was obvious that many people's attitude towards Yang Peng had changed, from the previous indifference or even contempt to reverence; of course, some people's attitudes, no matter what, had changed It will not change. Instead, they will hate you even more because of the strength you have shown, such as the Qiong Yao General Nayan, and those talented men who are conceited and full of knowledge; Xiao Tianzuo is a special case, he is the one who should hate Yang the most. Peng's, but he was chatting and laughing at the banquet, and he didn't look like he had just eaten.
"Boss Jin's archery skills are superb and amazing. I'm afraid there are not many people who can have such archery skills in the past! I just wonder from whom did you learn this shocking archery skills?" Xiao Tianzuo asked seemingly casually. . Everyone also showed a curious expression.
Yang Peng smiled and said: "This is passed down from our ancestors. During the prosperous Tang Dynasty, my ancestors served as military attachés in the Tang Dynasty." Yang Peng's words did not arouse anyone's suspicion at all, because during the prosperous Tang Dynasty, many Koreans did enter the Tang Dynasty to serve as military attachés. Among the military attaches, the most famous one is probably Gao Xianzhi, the military envoy of Anxi.
Yelu Hanyu said: "It turns out that my nephew's family has a long history of learning. No wonder his archery skills are so good!" Yang Peng smiled slightly. Xiao Tianzuo said with a smile: "It's really hard to imagine that Boss Jin is so outstanding in archery that he would be willing to be a merchant!" Xiao Tianzuo's words couldn't help but evoke the imagination of some people.
Yang Peng cursed secretly and said calmly and calmly: "Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. Even if he achieves extraordinary feats, he may end up having his family exterminated and his family exterminated in an instant! How can you be free and easy as a businessman!" Everyone listened. Yang Peng's words can't help but be touched.
Xiao Tianzuo smiled and said: "Boss Jin really cares about fame and fortune, unlike ordinary people like us! Boss Jin's business is very big. It seems that Boss Jin has many connections in Yanyun and Song Dynasty!"
Yang Peng said with a smile: "That's natural. We are all our own people here, and I don't have to hide it. In fact, the Grand Master Pang from the Song Kingdom is my main customer!" Everyone showed surprise. Yang Peng smiled and said to Yelu Guanyin beside him: "Because of these relationships, I can continuously get food from the Song Dynasty. How can Korea alone provide so much food!" Yelu Guanyin smiled brightly.
Everyone chatted, told some rumors, talked about some interesting things, and time passed by unconsciously.
The wine stalls were filled with people, and everyone bid farewell to Yelu Hanyu and left the villa. Yang Peng cupped his fists at Yelu Hanyu and said, "Auntie, my nephew has also said goodbye." Yelu Hanyu held Yelu Guanyin's delicate hand and said with a smile: "My nephew, please go back by yourself. Mei'er will stay with me today." Yang Peng glanced at Yelu Guanyin, who smiled and said, "I'm just going to stay one night and talk to my sister-in-law." Yang Peng smiled, "Then I'll go." Yelu Guanyin nodded. Yang Peng bowed to Yelu Hanyu again and left.
Yelu Hanyu saw Yelu Guanyin looking at Yang Peng's back infatuatedly, pursed her lips and smiled, and said jokingly: "It's just one night, can it be that you just can't bear to part with me? Why don't you stop accompanying my sister-in-law and go back with him!" Yelu Guanyin took it back. He looked at her, hugged Yelu Hanyu's arm, and said with a smile: "How can I not accompany my sister-in-law! Mei'er hasn't had a good talk with my sister-in-law for a long time!"
Yelu Hanyu patted her cheek lovingly. The two of them were walking along the lake. Yelu Hanyu glanced at Yelu Guanyin and said, "Meier, do you know your lover very well?"
Yelu Guanyin nodded, "Of course I understand him very well! He is a big businessman in Goryeo!" Yelu Hanyu frowned slightly, seeming to be thinking about something.
Seeing her sister-in-law like this, Yelu Guanyin couldn't help but curiously asked: "What is my sister-in-law thinking about?" Yelu Hanyu said: "Have you ever thought about how a businessman could have such shocking archery skills?" Yelu Guanyin said with a smile: "Didn't Brother just say that? His archery skills are passed down from his ancestors, and his ancestors were military attachés in the prosperous Tang Dynasty!" Then he frowned, "Sister-in-law, are you suspicious of something? Brother, there will never be any problem with him. !”
Yelu Hanyu smiled and rolled her eyes at Yelu Guanyin, "Why are you so nervous? Did my sister-in-law say that there is something wrong with your lover?" "Then what did the sister-in-law mean by those words...?" Yelu Hanyu frowned and said, "I just said I feel that a hero with both civil and military skills like him should not just be a businessman!" Yelu Guanyin smiled and said: "Brother, he doesn't want to get involved in the power struggle in the officialdom." Yelu Hanyu joked: "In your eyes anyway , he is good at everything!" Yelu Guanyin smiled sweetly, "Of course!"
Yelu Hanyu suddenly remembered something, looked down at Yelu Tri's belly, and asked in a low voice: "Have you ever...?" Yelu Guanyin was stunned at first, then understood, and shook his head, "Not yet." Yelu Hanyu breathed a sigh of relief and said meaningfully: "It's okay if it doesn't happen. Don't let that happen to him for the time being."
"Why? We Khitan people are not those hypocritical Song people, so why should we pay attention to these things?"
Yelu Hanyu tapped Yelu Tri's forehead angrily, "You girl, are you in love? You must listen to my sister-in-law on this matter!" Yelu Guanyin smiled, "Okay, I will listen to my sister-in-law!" Eyeballs He turned around and said jokingly: "If the eldest brother comes to ask for sex, I will kick him out!" Yelu Hanyu smiled, "If you say this in the Song Dynasty, you will definitely be scolded as a ****. **Slut!" Yelu Guanyin curled her lips and looked disapproving, "Song women are really hypocritical! They are obviously in love to death, but they insist on pretending to be reserved. If you can be reserved from the beginning to the end She can still be called a real lady, but she always pretends to be nice at first, and then falls in love with a man. In the end, she is dumped by the man, and she starts crying all over again. She is so sad that she is really sad. People are disgusting!”
Yelu Hanyu laughed and said angrily: "What a fallacy!" Yang Peng came out of the villa, and the secret guards came to greet him. Yang Xiong cupped his fists and said: "Master."
Yang Peng nodded, "Get on your horse and go back." Everyone got on their horses and headed down the mountain along the mountain road paved with bluestones. Yelu Hanyu's villa is located outside the city, still five or six miles away from the capital. On a hill with lush camphor willows, there is a mountain road paved with bluestones that winds down from the villa gate to the capital. official way.
It was already midnight, the stars and moon were blurred, and the mountain road was extremely dark. The occasional call of a night owl can make even the faint of heart tremble. Since Chen Xiao and the others were the last to leave, the mountain road was extremely quiet, and not a single person could be seen in front or behind.
Yang Peng took a deep breath of the cold night wind, and his originally groggy head became clearer. Thinking of the current situation in Liao Kingdom, I couldn't help but frown. In fact, for now, everything is going very smoothly. As long as nothing unexpected happens, Yelu Guanyin can control the entire Liao Kingdom. This can be said to be promoted by him and what he hopes. Only in this way can he get a reliable ally. Fight against Xixia together. However, for some reason, there is always a lingering worry in Yang Peng's heart, lingering in his heart like a nightmare. However, if he wants to catch this nightmare, he feels elusive!
Wow! A group of birds suddenly flew up from the woods ahead on the left. Yang Peng retracted his thoughts and looked up, only to see that the birds that were supposed to be perching on the trees were hovering over the woods and did not dare to land. Chen Xiao's heart moved and he immediately reined in his horse and shouted in a low voice: "Everyone stop!" Everyone stopped. Yang Peng's eyes scanned the forest on the left front that was as dark as ink like an eagle's eye.
Yang Xiong and Zhong Yinsha also sensed something, and they all showed vigilance. Yang Peng whispered: "Use a steel crossbow!" Dozens of secret guards immediately took out the folding steel crossbow from their saddle bags, quickly opened it, buckled the bowstring, and loaded the arrows.
Yang Peng pointed to the woods in front of him on the left and ordered: "Shoot at that forest!" The secret guards immediately raised their steel crossbows and pointed them at the woods, and pulled the triggers together. Amidst the sound of bow strings vibrating, dozens of crossbow arrows plunged in, and then a scream rang out, and a black figure fell from the tree.
Yang Peng frowned and said, "Go back to the villa!" Then he led dozens of his men and turned their horses and ran towards the villa. At this time, the men in black who were ambushing in the woods reacted and hurriedly fired arrows. However, Yang Peng and the others had just turned a corner and were blocked by a clump of woods. The arrows fired by the men in black had no effect. The leading man in black shouted urgently: "Send the signal quickly!" Then a signal rocket was seen flying into the sky.
Yang Peng and the others were running towards the villa when a hail of arrows suddenly flew towards them. There was no time to escape in the dark night, and many secret guards were hit by arrows and fell down. Then there was a shout from the front, and more than two hundred men in black poured out from the woods on both sides. Many of them held spears three to four meters long in their hands, and the cold light shone in the night.
The crowd charged forward with their horses and slashed to death many men in black. However, due to the incompatibility of their weapons, many secret guards were knocked off their horses. Yang Peng's mount was also stabbed to the ground by a spear coming from one side. Fortunately, Yang Peng jumped down in advance and was not affected.
The men in black were charging towards Yang Peng, howling and holding up their long swords and scimitars. Yang Peng quickly took off the cloud-piercing bow and the wolf-toothed arrow from his horse, and aimed an arrow at the man in black who had already rushed in front of him. With a crashing sound, the wolf-toothed arrow flew out of the string and shot through the man in black. He shot another man in black behind him in the chest, and the two men in black fell to the ground at the same time. Chen Xiao fired arrows in succession, and the men in black who rushed up were shot to the ground. For a moment, these men in black were unable to get close.
However, at this moment, Yang Peng finished shooting his spiked arrows. When a leader-looking man in black saw this, he shouted excitedly: "Don't be afraid, everyone! He has no arrows! Come together and kill him!" Then he yelled and rushed towards Chen Xiao first.
Yang Peng threw away the Cloud-piercing Bow and grabbed the spear of the man in black whom he shot to death. The leader yelled and thrust his gun into the chest. Chen Xiao dodged sideways, and at the same time, he stabbed out with the gun in his right hand, bang! The spear instantly pierced the leader's chest. The leader stared wide-eyed at the spear that pierced his chest. He might not be able to believe that the opponent's killing technique was so powerful!
When the people in black around them saw that their leader was killed instantly, they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then suddenly howled and swarmed up. Yang Peng kicked the leader's corpse away, brandished his spear and started fighting with the men in black. The spears were flying up and down, fast and fierce, and blood was bound to be seen when the spear came out. The men in black were either pierced through the chest or thrown away. , or their throats were cut off, and the spear was unstoppable, causing blood to rain and corpses to pile up on the mountain road. Like a dragon fighting in the wild, invincible!
Not far away, Yang Xiong brandished his sword and roared repeatedly, and the men in black who besieged him were cut off in two. The secret guards were also fighting fiercely, like fighting wolves against dogs. A hidden killer swung his knife and chopped down a man in black who rushed up, but was pierced in the chest by the man in black who rushed up immediately. The secret guard pursed his lips and tried hard to cut off the spear that pierced the chest, and then used his final blow. Qi Li let out an angry roar and chopped off the head of the man in black with his knife. The headless corpse fell down, and he fell down too.
Firelight flickered in the direction of the villa. Yelu Guanyin and Yelu Hanyu were dressed in military uniforms and led many soldiers towards this side. When they came to a sudden high place and looked down, they saw a fierce fighting going on. Everyone couldn't help but change their colors. Yelu Guanyin said urgently: "Come with me quickly!" Then he and Yelu Hanyu led the troops to rush down.
The people in black were already frightened by the ferocity of Yang Peng, Yang Xiong and the secret guards. At this moment, they were suddenly rushed in by the army. Where they could resist, they abandoned their weapons and ran away!
Yelu Guanyin didn't care about chasing them, and rushed to Yang Peng. When he saw Yang Peng covered in blood, he couldn't help being shocked, and he didn't speak for a long time. Yang Peng smiled and said: "You guys came just in time. If it were any later, I would have been choked!" Yelu Guanyin came back to her senses and asked urgently, "Brother, are you injured?"
Yang Peng shook his head, looked at the blood on his body, and said calmly: "This is all the blood of the enemy!" Yelu Guanyin's eyes were full of brilliant colors, "I originally thought that the eldest brother was just an amazing archer, but I didn't expect that the eldest brother would actually be able to do it. He is so brave and invincible!" Yang Peng smiled. He turned his head and glanced at Hidden Kill, who was either killed or injured, and his heart surged with uncontrollable anger.
Yang Peng followed Yelu Guanyin and Yelu Hanyu back to the villa hall. The injured secret guards were rescued and treated by the villa's doctors. The dead secret guards were also carried back to the villa. The gate of the villa was closed again, and the guards of the villa and the guards of Yelu Guanyin unsheathed their swords and guns to guard against possible enemies.
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
