The mountain roads are quiet, the sun is shining brightly, and the breeze is refreshing.
The five elders, all in their sixties and of average appearance, were walking all the way from the west. When they came out of the mountain pass in the southeast, they suddenly saw a flag not far away with the four characters "Qingliang Teahouse" embroidered on it fluttering in the wind. They were very attractive. , took long strides and jumped away.
Under the tea tent next to the flag, there were three or four wooden tables placed on both sides.
To the north sits Qin Haoming, with a dozen black robes standing behind him; to the south sits nine people dressed as bodyguards.
Qin Haoming said: "Wandering to a port, Lian Zhiqing and Huo Tongao, if you don't want to die, just go back the same way and pretend you haven't seen them before."
The man sitting in the middle of the south stood up and replied: "Qin Haoming, this is the boundary of Quzhou, not your garden. Don't be too pretentious."
Qin Haoming said: "After visiting a port, do you really want to move forward?"
You Yibu said: "Qin Haoming, I'm not afraid to tell you that since we joined the Longwei Escort Agency, we have sworn a solemn oath. If the chief escort hadn't driven us away, we, who were born in the Escort Agency, would have died as members of the Escort Agency." The ghost of the escort agency will serve the escort agency all his life."
Qin Haoming picked up the tea cup on the table, took two sips of thirsty tea leisurely, moistened his throat, turned to the man in black robe behind him and said: "I, Qin Haoming, don't like killing, and they are really not worthy of me. You guys Send them on their way.”
A man in black robe walked out of the tea shed and said to the nine bodyguards: "Wandering to a port, Lian Zhiqing, Huo Tong'ao, since you are so stubborn and ignorant, then please invite me!"
Seeing that a fight was inevitable, the escorts walked out of the tea shed, showed off their good guys, and waited for the men in black robes to attack.
The man in black robe really looked down on the nine bodyguards, so three of them walked out to have a one-on-three fight.
There were three people from Hongdu Prefecture, three people from Wuchang Prefecture, and three people from Changsha Prefecture. They each chose a black-robed man to fight.
The men in black robes are highly skilled in martial arts. They can handle one on three with ease. Fighting in twos and threes makes the bodyguards unable to think about the left or the right. They are unable to look forward or backward. They are in a dilemma and become a mess.
The escorts are concerned about the escort agency, and if the general helmsman is in trouble, they should return halfway if they encounter danger. Seeing that they were in danger of escaping, they each glanced at each other, clenched their swords again, and charged at the man in black robes, as if they were going to die together.
Qin Haoming saw that all the escorts were good-blooded men with no grudges in the past. What he wanted was to get things done, not to kill more people. He shouted: "Youyibu, Lian Zhiqing, Huo Tong'ao, God has the virtue of a good life." , as long as you return the same way, I am willing to give you another chance."
You Yibu shouted: "Qin Haoming, how can a man be greedy for life and afraid of death? Kill him if you want, no need to say more."
Qin Haoming said to the three men in black robes in the battle circle: "As they wish, send them to a blissful life."
The three men in black robes clenched their weapons and greeted the escorts seriously, without any scruples.
After more than ten confrontations, three bodyguards were lying on the ground, three bodyguards were injured, and three bodyguards were in a miserable state.
Just when the three men in black robes were about to kill the other three injured bodyguards, the three heroes of the Jiang family suddenly appeared, joined the battle circle, and fought with the three men in black robes. Enemy, withdraw from the battle circle.
Qin Haoming stood up and left his seat, walked out of the tea shed, and shouted to the three heroes of the Jiang family: "Jiang Langfeng, did you break your promise and walk out of Jianglang Mountain to be buried with Jiang Daogong?"
Jiang Langfeng glanced at Qin Haoming and said coldly: "Qin Haoming, if you don't hide yourself and show yourself like this, aren't you afraid that Bai Tianyu will come and take your life after learning about it?"
Qin Haoming sneered and said: "Tian Tianyu, a public enemy in the martial arts world, has long since ceased to exist in my eyes. He was not my opponent twenty years ago, and twenty years later, he is still defeated by my men. Why should I be afraid?"
"What nonsense are you talking to him? Just send him to Tathagata Buddha to be taught." Jiang Yafeng kicked his feet to the ground and sent a sword towards Qin Haoming. The light of the sword flickered like a comet.
Qin Haoming dodged slightly to the side and gave Jiang Yafeng a palm in the air.
Jiang Yafeng stabbed the air with his sword, but was blocked by Qin Haoming's palm. He landed on the ground five steps away and stood still. His chest was tight and he felt a little uncomfortable. Seeing Jiang Lingfeng stabbing Qin Haoming with his sword, he hurriedly said: "Third brother, don't be careless. The power of this boy's Pure Yang Palm is very domineering."
Jiang Lingfeng was reminded by Jiang Yafeng and when he saw Qin Haoming's palm coming, he hurriedly withdrew his sword move halfway to avoid Qin Haoming's volley.
Qin Haoming saw that the three heroes of the Jiang family were afraid of his pure Yang palm and found it difficult to get close to him. He said proudly: "Jiang Langfeng, in the battle at Jueqing Valley, you injured Bai Tianyu and helped me a lot. , we can also be considered friends. Today, as long as you return to Jianglang Mountain and live in seclusion, and no longer interfere with Jianghu affairs, I can remember the friendship in the past and let you go. "
Jiang Langfeng smiled coldly and said loudly: "Qin Haoming, if a man is poor, he will be alone, and if he is rich, he will help the world. He cannot be licentious with wealth, cannot be moved by poverty, and cannot be subdued by force. The house he lives in is wide, the position he stands is correct, and the road he walks on is right." Bright. With how you look like Qin Haoming now, living in fear all the time, worried that others will come to take your life, you are like a walking corpse, who can you scare? "
Qin Haoming has always been stupid and does not have the ability to argue with others. He has no place to vent his anger. He said behind him: "The three heroes of the Jiang family want to be Jiang Lang's three dogs. Why don't you help them."
Upon hearing this, ten men in black robes jumped out of the tea shed, swarmed up, surrounded the three heroes of the Jiang family and the six bodyguards, and fought with their swords unsheathed.
Suddenly, the sword light flashed, the sword light flickered, and it was lively.
Threes and twos fought, three of the six escorts lay down, and blood flowed on the ground.
After repeated fights, You Yibu, Lian Zhiqing, and Huo Tongao were struck by swords in their arms and legs again and fell to the ground.
Qin Haoming saw that the three heroes of the Jiang family were one with each other, and the more they fought, the more courageous they became. Seven or eight of his men were more or less injured by their swords. He couldn't stand it, so he found an opportunity to secretly send a palm blow to Jiang Langfeng.
Jiang Langfeng didn't pay attention. He received a palm from Qin Haoming on the shoulder and was attacked by three men in black robes. He was unable to protect himself and lost the ability to support the other two brothers. The situation of the battle suddenly turned around. Each of the three heroes of the Jiang family were injured by their swords. They slowly turned from attack to defense. Their room for maneuver became smaller and smaller, and they were about to be defeated.
Seeing such a scene, Qin Haoming happily returned to the table, drank two sips of tea, and said slowly: "Jiang Langfeng, you and I have no grievances. If you are willing to return to the mountains and forests and no longer interfere with the affairs of the rivers and lakes, today Quan pretends he has never seen it."
"Now that we have left Jianglang Mountain, it makes sense to return to seclusion again. Aren't you forcing things on others? Qin Haoming." The voice came from the west, clear, steady and powerful.
The voice sounded so familiar that Qin Haoming felt extremely uncomfortable after hearing it. He unconsciously looked towards the place where the voice came from and saw that the five elders had come within five feet and continued to move forward without any intention of stopping.
Qin Haoming saw that the five people were only two feet apart and stopped. He couldn't help but stepped forward and saluted: "Five elders, why are you here? My master, are you okay?"
Qin Haoming knew these five people very well. They were the five Liu brothers (one metal, two wood, three water, four fire, and five soil). They were the five friends of his mentor Jiang Chengcheng. They had watched Qin Haoming grow up. He also taught Qin Haoming some martial arts to some extent.
Liu Yijin stepped forward and said: "Qin Haoming, your master has a strong body and strong bones, so don't worry. If you are willing to go home, give up your martial arts. From now on, you will no longer care about the right and wrong in the world, and just pick up a hoe and farm the land."
When Qin Haoming heard that his master was still alive, he felt indescribable joy in his heart, but once he made a mistake, he would regret it for eternity, and it would be a hundred years since he turned back. Moreover, he believed that he would not live for a hundred years, so he felt that there was no need to look back. Chao Liu Yijin said: "Uncle Yijin, it's okay if you ask me to plant flowers, but if you ask me to carry a hoe and cultivate the land, I think it's a bit overwhelming."
Liu Ermu took two steps forward and asked loudly: "You really can't carry the hoe?"
Qin Haoming gave a gentle courtesy and replied with great sincerity: "Uncle Ermu, every profession and every career is a skill. It takes time to polish it, slowly adapt to it, and gradually like it, and then you will be comfortable and live comfortably. So-called Seventy years ago, I have lived for more than forty years. How many more years can I live? If I spend all my time getting used to that hoe, I will definitely live an uncomfortable life. In this case, why force it? Force yourself to live like that!"
Liu Sanshui came forward, smiled slightly and said: "Okay, Haozi, we are unwilling to let you choose again. After all, you are the child we watched grow up. Now that you have chosen, do you think our words are a little bit... It’s superfluous, so we have to follow your master Jiang Qingcheng’s wishes. Take action, look at the coffin and the tears, which one do you want to choose in the end.”
Qin Haoming bowed deeply to the Wuliu brothers and said: "Five uncles, the kindness you gave me in upbringing can only be repaid in the next life."
Liu Sihuo didn't say anything, and struck Qin Haoming with a fierce palm, going straight to Qin Haoming's heart, so that he could be a responsible person in the next life and never be ungrateful.
Qin Haoming floated backwards and let the weakened palm force hit him to show his respect to the five seniors.
When Liu Wutu saw this, he came up and said, "Qin Haoming, you don't need to talk about these worthless courtesy, just fight back. As far as you are concerned, we are your enemies now, and there is no need to talk about feelings. thing."
"Yes, Uncle Liu." Qin Haoming bowed warmly and said to the dozen or so men in black, "Enter."
Upon hearing this, the man in black followed Qin Haoming's footsteps and attacked the Wuliu brothers, fighting together.
Suddenly, the sword flashed, the palm wind struck, the sleeves fluttered, dust flew, and it became a mess.
At the beginning, the five elders fought on their own. After several rounds of fighting, they were attacked and almost lost.
Liu Yijin saw that the skills of the dozen men in black robes were more agile than expected, so he also took the fight seriously and called four brothers and one of the five elements to return to their positions. The five people are connected as one, the five elements are interdependent, and they are both offensive and defensive. Their combat power is instantly increased, and they can force Qin Haoming and others back ten feet in a few clicks.
