After a cup of tea, the horse team galloped over the mountain col and broke into the green bamboo forest.
The breeze blows, and the green bamboo forest shakes its head, nods and bends, rustling, singing the praises of nature. As the horseshoes throw incense, the dead leaves on the ground rise with the wind and dance in the air. They are illuminated by a few scattered rays of sunset, making them colorful and beautiful.
The person running on horseback at the front was a middle-aged woman. She saw two strong pine trees in front of her with lush branches, lying like a wall on the road, blocking the way forward. With quick eyes and quick hands, she quickly He reined in the horse.
As the horse neighed, the companions behind him were frightened and panicked. They forcibly reined in the horse and almost fell off the horse.
The woman stepped forward on horseback and took a look at the pine tree lying across the road. She was extremely puzzled when she saw that the pine tree had been uprooted from the roots, with fresh branches and leaves, and no traces of cutting with a knife or axe. I thought to myself, in the past few days, the clouds and winds have been calm along the way. I have seen some violent storms there. Even if it was caused by the strong wind, why were the bamboos around him intact, but only two deep-rooted pine trees were blown down. Obviously, it is beyond human power.
He turned the horse's head and said to the elder who was coming forward astride the horse: "Brother, something is fishy, or else we should turn back."
The elder glanced at the leaves and roots of the pine tree, felt the same way, and replied: "Sanniang, Longhu Villa is just ahead, no more than twenty miles away. If we just go back home, won't I, Jiang Daogong, let the world down in the future?" My friend is laughing so hard, how can he continue to hang out in the world?"
A man stepped forward on horseback and said: "Chief escort, face is not a big deal, your safety is the biggest. Otherwise, just listen to Sanniang."
Jiang Daogong said: "Lao Yang, walking in the rivers and lakes relies on two words of friendship, heart for heart. There are people blocking the way here. Longhu Villa must face strong enemies. How can I, Jiang, ignore my friends and leave? Therefore, the morality of the world has been lost."
Head Guard Yang said: "But..."
Jiang Daogong said: "There is nothing to worry about. Clear the obstacles and continue on your way."
Hearing Jiang Daogong's words, ten strong men jumped off their horses, stepped forward, drew their swords, and chopped down the branches of the pine tree. The pine tree was left bare behind, the sword was sheathed, and they bent down. Two or three people raised their heads, trying to lift the pine tree to the roadside.
The ten people had just lifted the pine tree from the ground, but before they could move, a piece of steel nails, dozens of darts, and several steel arrows ran out from the fluttering bamboo leaves, as dense as raindrops, and came towards them. .
Jiang Daogong heard something strange in the sound, glanced at it, and shouted: "Be careful, there is a hidden weapon."
Ten men held giant trees in their hands. When they heard the warning and reacted by throwing away the pine trunks in their hands, the hidden weapon had already flown in and hit them. The ten people fell to the ground in a moment, crawling and rolling in agony.
Jiang Daogong jumped off his horse and rushed over with the others, resisting the flying hidden weapons while rescuing the ten men. Unfortunately, the poison was too strong, and I didn't know what kind of poison it was, so I couldn't do anything about it. I watched helplessly as the poisoned man died in pain after suffering enough.
Jiang Daogong shed two tears, stood up, filled his chest with blood, and shouted to the green bamboo forest around him: "What a rat, it doesn't matter if you hide your head and show your tail, you have the guts to show up!"
The sound dispersed, and the surrounding bamboos moved with the wind, and eleven men in black floated down. They were all tall and short, all with their faces covered, and their whereabouts could not be seen.
As soon as the men in black landed and stood up, a few leapt forward, one dispersed, and surrounded Jiang Daogong and others, as if they did not intend to let any of them go.
Jiang Daogong asked: "Who are you, and what grudges do I, Longwei Escort Agency, have against you?"
A man in black, whose robes were embroidered with silver threads, carried a sword at his waist. He stepped forward three or four steps, glanced at Jiang Daogong, and spoke from the black cloth in front of his mouth: "Jiang Daogong, please turn back now. Why don't you go to Longhu Villa?" It’s still too late to wade through the muddy water.”
Jiang Daogong has been traveling around the world for decades. He is not a big scarer. How could he hear such words? He walked forward and shouted angrily at the man in black with a silver border: "Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you are wrapped in a layer of black cloth. If I, Jiang Daogong, step back even half a step today, there will no longer be the name Longwei Escort Agency in Jiangnan Wulin."
The man in silver-clad black robe heard this, laughed loudly, and said: "Jiang Daogong, since you are so stubborn and ineffective, then you should die." After saying this, he jumped into the air and struck straight to the point with a palm, directly hitting Jiang Daogong's chest.
Jiang Daogong had ten of his brothers dead, and he was already filled with righteous indignation. He jumped up, went up to meet them, and caught them with one palm.
The two palms intersect, flying sand and rocks, flying bamboo leaves, each exerting force, the two infuriating energies collide, and both parties return to their original positions.
Jiang Daogong stood firm and instantly felt a dull pain in the palm of his hand. When he looked at his palm, a small drop of black blood came out. It turns out that there is a needle hidden in the middle finger of the man in black's right hand. The needle is coated with poison, which makes him appear sinister.
Seeing that the sneak attack was successful, the man in black robe waved his hand, and the other men in black robe rushed into the battle circle and fought with about twenty other bodyguards.
The two sides were fighting, and all the men in black were strong, moved in an orderly manner, and advanced and retreated in a measured manner. It was more than enough to fight one against two.
Immediately, the sky became dark and the earth became dark, bamboo leaves were flying in disorder, and red blood was scattered like rain. One was miserable, and the other was terrifying.
Seeing that Jiang Daogong did not join the battle circle, the man in silver-silk black robe thought that the poison must have taken effect, so he sent out a palm in the air for final confirmation.
Jiang Daogong saw the wind coming from his palm and used his palm to neutralize it. Unfortunately, he couldn't raise his energy in his dantian, so he took the palm forcefully and took five steps back before he could regain his footing.
Seeing this, the man in black robe with silver silk was overjoyed and said: "Jiang Daogong, you are seeking death on your own, don't blame me." As soon as he finished speaking, a bully stepped forward and took Jiang Daogong's heart with one palm.
Jiang Daogong couldn't avoid it and met him with a palm. Only a "cha" sound was heard, the joints of his right arm were dislocated, and he fell ten feet. He is worthy of being a hero. After many years of ups and downs, he climbed up and still stood as tall as a pine tree.
The man in black robe saw that Jiang Daogong had lost one of his arms, and it was the right time to kill him, so he took advantage of the victory and struck with a strike.
"Uncle Jiang, be careful." Zhang Yanyan shouted when she saw Jiang Daogong being knocked away by the black-robed man's palm. She ran towards Jiang Daogong who fell to the ground and held him up. Her melancholy eyes were full of concern.
He couldn't lose his dignity in front of the younger generation. Jiang Daogong endured the pain and cheered up.
Xiao Ruoyun rushed over, took out a handkerchief, wiped the blood from the corner of Jiang Daogong's mouth, and asked, "Brother Jiang, how are you?"
Jiang Daogong smiled faintly and said: "I have nothing to do. Take the child away quickly. These are hypocrites who stab others in the back."
Bai Yutian walked closer and saw the man in black robe striking Zhang Yan'er with his palm in the air. He didn't know what to do. If Zhang Yan'er is pulled away, Jiang Daogong will undoubtedly die. If he doesn't pull Zhang Yan'er away, Yan'er will not be much better. In desperation, he blocked Zhang Yan'er's path and was forced back two or three steps by the wind of his palm. After he regained his footing, his Dantian was lucky enough to face the man in black robe who was flying towards him.
The two met in the air, and their four palms intersected three times in a row, and one of them shook open. The man in black robe flew backwards, and Bai Yutian slowly landed on the ground.
The man in black robe stood firm on the ground, and was about to attack again, but found that his arm was aching, so he had to give up and shouted to Bai Yutian: "How can you do this Pure Yang Palm? Who are you, Jiang Qingcheng?"
Bai Yutian was too lazy to pay attention to him, and shouted at the seventeen people in the battle circle: "Stop, if there is something that can't be solved with words, we have to fight to the death."
Upon hearing this, the ten men in black stopped their martial arts and looked towards Bai Yutian.
The six seriously injured men and Sanniang hurriedly withdrew from the battle ring. Two of them jumped and landed behind Bai Yutian. Looking at Jiang Daogong's dying eyes, they all felt heartbroken, forgetting that they were also hurt.
Sanniang quickly took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms, poured out two pills, and hurriedly gave them to Jiang Daogong, fearing that he would just leave.
The man in silver robe and black robe had just exchanged palms with Bai Yutian three times, and his arm was almost crippled. He was still frightened and did not dare to force himself. In order not to lose his majesty in front of his companions, he pretended to shout to Bai Yutian: "Boy, if you don't want to die, get out of here." Go aside and stop meddling."
Bai Yutian glanced at the ground and said, "You have killed more than twenty people. No matter how great the hatred is, it has been resolved. There is no need to kill them all."
A man in black said: "If you talk to him about anything, we can kill him together."
Upon hearing this, the man in black robe with silver silk felt that it made sense. He waved his hand and said quickly: "Come on."
Upon hearing this, ten men in black jumped forward and surrounded Bai Yutian. With a shout, they thrust out their swords.
Seeing eleven swords stabbing at the same time, Bai Yutian jumped into the air, pulled out the peach wood sword, fell upside down, and used the "Wind Eye Vortex" move to push away the eleven swords three or two times, and hit the ground with one palm. Soaring out to the east, facing the three men in black in the east were three cold lights, sending a move "A gentleman has three changes".
The three men in black had never thought that Bai Yutian had such abilities. They were frightened, but before they could dodge in the future, they were hit by the cold light. The sword they held in their right wrists fell to the ground, and they backed away again and again, fearing that Bai Yutian would do something like "taking advantage of your illness". , take your life.”
Bai Yutian landed on the soles of his feet and glanced at the other eight people. The eight people took two steps back, their eyes full of fear.
Seeing that the situation was not right, the man in silver-clad black robe pretended to turn around and leave, then secretly hit Bai Yutian with two poisonous needles.
Bai Yutian had quick eyes and quick hands. The sword drew an arc in the air, and the two poisonous needles flew towards the west, just hitting the arms of the two men in black holding the sword.
The man in black who was hit shook his hand, dropped the sword, and hurriedly sealed the acupuncture points on his hand, fearing that the poison would attack his heart and kill him.
Bai Yutian didn't like poisonous needles, and he looked down on people who attacked and plotted sneakily. He stabbed the man in black robe with silver silk in the air.
The man in black robe with silver silk didn't dare to take the move. He jumped back a foot or two, turned around, and soared towards the mountain top in the north. He disappeared in a few moments, leaving behind a sentence: "Jiang Daogong, you are lucky today, come here." Japan is not so lucky."
When Captain Yang saw the man in black trying to escape, he shouted to Bai Yutian: "Mr. Bai, I asked about the antidote."
Bai Yutian, a passerby, could at most draw his sword to help when there was an uneven road. How could he accept orders and pretend not to hear them.
Seeing that Bai Yutian had no intention of harming them, the man in black helped the five injured companions walk towards the north and disappeared in a moment.
