In the past, Yang Jian, the founding monarch of the Sui Dynasty, relied on this object to wipe out other countries and unify China. After the founding of the Sui Dynasty, this marriage umbrella was hidden in the Luoyang treasure house until Li Shimin and Wang Shichong fought in Luoyang. The whereabouts of this umbrella are unknown. Later, it passed into the hands of "Lantian Young Master" Xue Shao. Later, Xue Shao died in prison, and the whereabouts of the umbrella were unknown again. Later, it suddenly came out that the umbrella was now hidden in the Xue family's ancestral hall in Fenyin County, Hedong Province. Wu Zetian ordered the Xue family to hand over the marriage umbrella and send it to Luoyang. The tribe's daughter Xue Ning, her guardian, maids, and three hundred guards under the governor's command went to the capital together to collect treasures and receive rewards. Wu Zetian sent female officer You Shao'er and his masters to respond. Until this time, all the forces could no longer hold back and wanted to seize the treasure midway.
The leader of the guard army is the young general Chu Feng. He is about 27 or 28 years old. He comes from a noble family. Because he is determined to join the army, he is appointed as the captain of Zhaowu School in Hedong Road. He has always performed his duties diligently and is very humble and polite. He is now sent to Beijing. It is clear that He wanted to give him a chance to achieve fame, but he didn't know that the journey would be extremely dangerous.
At this time, the news of the Xue family's treasure acquisition has already been known to all parties. Many masters from Tubo, Tuyuhun, Turks, Khitan, Silla, Goguryeo, Japan, Tianzhu, Dashi, Li Tang Jiuxun, and various martial arts sects are waiting for the opportunity to seize the treasure. However, this matter involves the Wuzhou court, and most people still have a wait-and-see attitude. Firstly, it is still unclear whether the legend is reliable; secondly, before the remote forces had time to take action, some grass bandits were daunted by the mighty cavalry officers and soldiers of nearly a thousand people.
Chu Feng, Xue Ning and their entourage were safe and sound along the way. At this time, the sentinels who were scouting the road turned back and reported: "Captain Chu, three miles ahead is Xinglin Town. Seeing that it is getting late, I wonder if I should rest in the town for a night." .”
Chu Feng turned his horse's head and bowed to the carriage: "Miss, seeing that it's getting late, could we please rest for the night in Xinglin Town ahead?"
Xue Ning knew in her heart that Chu Feng had the final say on the whole itinerary, and it was just a matter of etiquette. She said across the curtain, "It all depends on the general."
Chu Feng bowed to the carriage again, turned around and said, "Give me the order, and the others will hurry up and get ready. We will rest in Xinglin Town tonight."
Soon the sentry turned back again: "Captain Chu, we found a group of bandits in front of us. They seemed to have surrounded someone in the middle of the road."
Chu Feng thought for a moment and said, "The big team will follow."
The strategy was decided, Chu Feng changed his clothes, and then brought forty or fifty people to quietly approach him. Then he ordered his troops to surround the group of bandits. When Chu Feng came closer, he saw a Confucian scholar in the middle. The well-dressed young man sat down in the middle, holding a bag of rugs tightly.
Chu Feng took the lead and walked out to explore the situation and said, "It's so busy in front of us, maybe there's some juggling going on."
The gangsters suddenly heard someone talking behind them, especially the leader, who was startled. They saw a young man standing in front of the road, looking at everyone with a smile. The young scholar shouted to Chu Feng: "Brother, hurry up, this is A group of thieves." When the leader heard this, he couldn't help but became furious, kicked the scholar, and then ordered four or five minions to hold Chu Feng. Chu Feng did not resist, and was thrown together with the Confucian scholar. Several minions searched Chu Feng from head to toe, but found nothing. Chu Feng thought to himself: "Where did the money come from for the clothes I just changed?"
However, the scholar hugged the bag tightly and refused to let go. Chu Feng secretly laughed. He was about to lose his life. Even if there was thousands of gold and silver, what was the use? However, there were still many bandits. No matter how hard the scholar fought to death, he was torn to pieces. The books fell down, and there was a money bag in the middle. A gangster picked it up, looked at it, and threw it away. He scolded: "You don't even want to give me this little bit of money, so you're just protecting your ass."
The Confucian scholar shouted repeatedly: "Don't ruin my book." Chu Feng was upset when he heard it, and said: "Just shut up, I will send a car back later." As he said this, he protected the Confucian scholar and looked at the surrounding subordinates. He waved his hand. Immediately, three hundred officers and soldiers surrounded him. The bandit leader slashed at Chu Feng with a knife. Chu Feng dodged, turned around, knocked the man's steel knife away and caught it smoothly. He twisted his arm with one hand, raised the knife and chopped off the leader's head. fall. This sudden scene made the bandit's soul tremble, and he knelt down to beg for mercy. Chu Feng briefly interrogated a few of the leaders and minions who usually did evil, and let the others go. He ordered them to burn the nest and go back to their own homes. At home, all the minions lost their weapons and sticks and fled one after another.
After this incident, it was getting late, and the group gradually lowered their guard and set out for Xinglin Town, but unexpectedly they stepped into another trap.
A thin old man sat in the center, with sharp light shining in his deep-set eye sockets. His eyebrows are thick and messy, and he has a long goatee on his chin, which makes him look a little sinister. Wearing a black robe, he looks like a ghost from the underworld, which makes people shudder. This person is Liu Feifeng of Xiaoxiangmen and Xiaoxiang Ten Lao Middle School. He uses the influence of Xiaoxiangmen to unite with the big and small gangs in the world to win over. He formed a huge gang and committed all kinds of evil. An ambush was arranged on the only way Chu Feng and his party must pass. He deliberately disguised his masters as bandits, mingled among the crowd, and lurked on both sides of the mountain, waiting for Chu Feng's arrival.
When Chu Feng and others walked through the mountain road, Laixing and his men were ambushing on both sides of the mountain. They had carefully studied the terrain in advance and found the most suitable ambush point. At the turning point of the mountain road, Laixing and his men piled up a large number of stones and wood and placed them on top of the mountain road to roll down and attack when pedestrians passed by. In addition, they also set up many traps on the roadside, such as arrow towers, potholes, winches, etc., to trap the enemy.
When Chu Feng and his party arrived, they immediately released various mechanisms. Huge stones and wood rolled down the mountain and quickly hit Chu Feng and his party, making a roar that shook the earth. The arrow tower and winch were also activated at the same time, and dense arrows and sharp ropes attacked Chu Feng and others. Chu Feng and others were attacked by huge rocks, rolling trees and rain of arrows, and immediately dispersed to escape, but Liu Feifeng and his men were well prepared, and they quickly appeared beside everyone. Liu Feifeng and his masters cooperated tacitly. Everyone had superb martial arts and combat skills. With the cooperation of all the minions, Chu Feng and others were soon trapped in the mountain road. As a school captain, Chu Feng had strong martial arts. Although he was attacked from both sides, the masters could not hold him down for a while.
Liu Feifeng has always been ruthless, extremely arrogant, self-centered, and regards human life as nothing. He is famous for his Zanpakutō in his life, and the 18 willow leaf darts on his waist are even more difficult to guard against. Looking at the gap, two willow-leaf darts shot out. Chu Feng fought off the people around him. He was already in a panic after escaping one dart, but another dart came one after another, thrust directly into his shoulder, with a long hand in his hand. The sword fell to the ground with a sound, no longer capable of fighting. Liu Feifeng drew out her Zanpakutō and attacked Chu Feng. With the sword in her hand, she was about to end this living life. Suddenly, a middle-aged Taoist priest in dark blue robes, holding a sharp sword, came out of the forest. He immediately stood in front of Xue Ning and others and looked at Liu Feifeng and the bandits. He had a kind face, but without losing his majesty, and he directly faced Liu Feifeng's attack. The two were equally skilled and were inseparable from each other. This Taoist's swordsmanship is like chasing the stars and chasing the moon, light and yet ruthless. Liu Feifeng cannot easily deal with every sword strike. In order to prevent innocent people from being implicated, this master lured Liu Feifeng and other Xiaoxiangmen masters away while fighting. At this time, another master came out with a sword. This man was Xuan Rui among the three mysteries of Tianshan. It turned out that Xuan Ying and Xuan Rui Rui saw that there were many masters in front of him, and the martial arts strength of Liu Feifeng, the leader, was extraordinary, and it was not easy to save people. The two came up with a plan.
Xuan Ying, who has stronger martial arts and excellent light skills, was the first to attack, attracting the attention of Liu Feifeng and Xiaoxiangmen masters, and Xuan Rui took the opportunity to save people. Therefore, Xuan Ying clenched the long sword in his hand and took the lead to kill. He demonstrated his superb martial arts level in every move and style, which greatly surprised the opponent's masters.
Upon seeing this, Liu Feifeng immediately led the Xiaoxiangmen masters to kill Xuan Ying. On the one hand, Xuan Ying continued to deal with Liu Feifeng and others, on the other hand, he secretly observed the enemy's movements and kept delaying everyone.
At this time, Xuan Rui had quietly slipped to Xue Ning's side and rescued Xue Ning. At this time, scholar Song Jing was also accidentally caught up and fell into crisis. At this time, Xuan Rui stepped out to protect Xue Ning and withstood the attacks of the bandits to rescue Song Jing from danger.
However, Xuan Rui quickly attracted the attention of the others, and more experts came to stop him.
When Xuan Rui saw this, he did not dare to take it lightly. He immediately displayed his martial arts and started a fierce battle with the opponent's master. Although he was highly skilled in martial arts, his opponent was outnumbered and gradually gained the upper hand.
Seeing this, Xuan Ying took advantage of Liu Feifeng and others' negligence to break out from the side and join the battle. His joining disrupted the enemy's position and allowed Xuan Rui to successfully rescue Xue Ning, Song Jing and others.
However, the enemy did not give up and launched another round of attacks. Xuan Ying and Xuan Rui fought hard and retreated steadily. Seeing that the enemy was approaching them, Xuan Ying and Xuan Rui looked at each other and decided to join forces to fight.
Xuan Ying jumped three or four miles in one breath, knowing that if he retreated, Liu Feifeng might not be chasing him. That is, while Xuan Ying stabilized his body, Liu Feifeng flew to catch up.
Xuan Ying stood with a sword in his hand, his face calm and natural, and his green clothes swayed in the wind. Liu Feifeng chased all the way, showing no signs of strength. He immediately took a breath, raised a big sword in front of his chest, exerted force with his toes, and slashed at Xuan Ying. , Liu Feifeng's first move did not make him old, he followed the trend and blocked it, easily dodging it. The two of them exchanged swords for more than ten times before a group of killers hurriedly arrived behind them. Xuan Ying took advantage of the opponent's unsteady footing, feinted, and assassinated one person, and then used Feiyan to bypass the beam, and assassinated two more people from behind. Liu Feifeng was unprepared and immediately killed and wounded three masters. She couldn't help but look livid and furious in her heart. The broadsword swung rapidly, striking at Xuan Ying like a violent storm.
Just when one man is angry, ten thousand men are invincible. Xuan Ying didn't dare to take a direct hit and used his body skills to avoid it. Suddenly I saw something flying towards me in the light of the sword. I was frightened and swung my sword to block it. Two clang and clang sounds were heard, but I could barely block it. Suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his thigh, and he immediately struck out with several swords. When he jumped out of the circle, he saw a willow dart stuck in his leg. Liu Feifeng's broadsword looked ferocious, but it was actually a cover for launching darts. Facing such a master, Liu Feifeng knew that it would be difficult for a single strike to be effective. Then he danced the sword with his right hand, opening and closing it widely. The sword was heavy and fierce, and Xuan Ying tried his best to resist it. Then the darts were fired in unison. The left hand first fired two darts three ways up, and then three darts down three ways, followed by one dart. It can be said that it was very painstaking.
Xuan Ying saw the willow dart in his body and the black blood flowing out. He knew that he had been poisoned. He sighed that Liu Feifeng was very thoughtful and had a superb skill with a series of darts. He did not dare to fight and wanted to retreat.
Liu Feifeng spent all his efforts and hit the target with one strike, but how could he give up? Using real skills, the Zanpakutō slashed one after another, leaving Xuanying with no time to breathe. The masters saw that they had killed three people in an instant. They were originally wary, but now they saw that Xuanying was at a disadvantage and was even more poisoned. Darts, swarmed up.
At this moment, Xuan Ying was sweating profusely, his steps were heavy, his eyes were black, and he knew that he was deeply poisoned. For a moment, his whole body was injured several times. Suddenly, the long sword was blocked by the big knife, and it came out. The blade turned and struck down on the head.
