Fu Tianpeng broke free from the trap and ran away from the dragon, and had a beautiful woman accompanying him to travel around the world. Naturally, he felt infinitely happy. However, for Xiao Jianqiu and Pingjiang prefect Wu Xi, there was a sense of oppression at this moment as if they were burdened by a huge boulder.
Based on Sai Jinhua's description, Xiao Qiujian knew that the bandits from Crouching Tiger Mountain had kidnapped Zhao Xueqing, so he rushed to the Jinbing camp without stopping. After arriving at the Jinbing camp, Xiao Qiujian showed his famous name and asked the soldiers guarding the camp to report to Jin Wushu. After the soldier turned and left, he rushed back after a short time. He told Xiao Jianqiu that he could go in to meet the marshal.
After that, the soldiers removed the antlers and let Xiao Jianqiu in. After Xiao Jianqiu came to the commander's tent of the Chinese army, he saw Jin Wushu. Xiao Jianqiu took a closer look at his figure and appearance; Jin Wushu was nine feet tall, with a round face and broad ears, eyes like copper bells, eyebrows like broomsticks, and a beard as thick as a steel needle under his chin. He was wearing a golden chainmail armor with swallowing clouds and a purple gold robe. He was sitting firmly behind the tiger case, looking majestic.
When Jin Wushu saw Xiao Jianqiu, he waved his hand and laughed loudly: "It turns out to be Xiao Jianqiu. It's really rare to see him. Sit down quickly and have a few drinks with me." Xiao Jianqiu clasped his fists and bowed his body towards Jin Wushu. The technique is profound and a gift is given. He told Jin Wushu that there was a very important matter coming here this time.
After hearing Xiao Jianqiu's words, Jin Wushu put Jiu Jue down for the time being and quickly asked him what happened? Xiao Jianqiu glanced at Jin Wushou, turned his face to his right, and then looked at this man with eyes full of hatred. This person is none other than Lu Qiang, the bandit leader of Crouching Tiger Mountain.
Lu Qiang raised his head and glanced at Xiao Jianqiu, seeing his eyes widened with anger. Suddenly, Lu Qiang's scarred face trembled convulsively. Lu Qiang asked Xiao Jianqiu dissatisfied: "You are staring at me like a bad wolf, how did I offend you?"
Xiao Jianqiu snorted contemptuously with a nasal tone, then pointed at Lu Qiang and cursed: "Young people named Lu don't do secret things. Please tell me where you kidnapped my junior sister?"
Facing Xiao Jianqiu's questioning, Lu Qiang threw the wine prince on the table, causing the wine to splash everywhere. Lu Qiang's one eye flashed with a fierce light. He opened his big mouth and said viciously: "Fart, fart. Who is talking nonsense, saying that I kidnapped someone."
When Xiao Jianqiu saw Lu Qiang's "denial", he asked Jin Wushu to uphold justice for him. Jin Wushu asked Xiao Jianqiu, had the man who claimed to be Crouching Tiger Mountain ever shown his true face? Xiao Jianqiu told Jin Wushu that Sai Jinhua mentioned that the other party was masked.
After hearing this, Jin Wushu laughed loudly and said: "Xiao Shaoxia, since the other party has never shown his true face, why did you confirm with certainty that it was the master of Lu Village who did it?" Xiao Jianqiu continued to stare at Lu Qiang, and then said: "WTF What can't Hushan do? Since they covered their faces and kidnapped people, of course they didn't want others to see their faces. So I dare to say that this was Lu Qiang's instigation."
When Lu Qiang heard this, he was furious. He pointed at Xiao Jianqiu's nose and cursed: "Bah, you are a young boy. You didn't find out what happened, so you just made random accusations against me. Do you think I, surnamed Lu, are easy to bully?" No? To tell you the truth, I kidnapped your junior sister, how will you treat her?"
When Xiao Jianqiu saw Lu Qiang acting cruel and violent, he was filled with anger and anger filled his head. With the Qingfeng sword in his hand, Youlong suddenly ran away in shock, and a white light went straight to Lu Qiang's throat. Seeing this, Lu Qiang stepped forward steadily with his legs, as if he were standing upright. While stabilizing his lower body, Lu Qiang clasped his palms together and used the "closed door to thank guests" move, locking Xiao Jianqiu's Qingfeng sword tightly. At this moment, Xiao Jianqiu was like a wild beast trapped in a cage, unable to do anything. Lu Qiang saw Xiao Jianqiu's face full of anger but had nowhere to vent,
He sneered several times.
After a brief stalemate, Jin Wushu walked up to the two of them. He scolded: "Stop it, my brothers, why do we need to meet each other with swords?" After Jin Wushu finished speaking, the two of them withdrew their attacks and retreated a few steps away.
Jin Wushu patted Xiao Jianqiu's shoulder, laughed loudly and said: "Xiao Shaoxia, you are still too young and easy to be impulsive. Just now, the village leader of Lu Village said angry words, but I didn't expect you to take it seriously. I can confirm it. , Master Lu Village has been in my big tent these days and has never gone out at all. Moreover, he has not communicated privately with anyone else. "
Xiao Jianqiu didn't think so after hearing Jin Wushu's explanation. He said to Jin Wushu: "Marshal, this man is full of tricks. If he uses carrier pigeons, sends people, or carries things behind your back, who can guarantee that he will not be deceived?"
Jin Wushu told Xiao Jianqiu that as long as the homing pigeon appears, it will be firmly controlled. When it comes to sending people, everyone in the camp reports level by level, and no one dares to get away with it. Moreover, everyone coming from outside, whether they are soldiers in the camp or others, will be subject to interrogation and examination.
Jin Wushu's words made Xiao Jianqiu's anger lessen. However, he also believed that even if this matter had nothing to do with Lu Qiang, it was probably caused by something else in Crouching Tiger Mountain. Lu Qiang guaranteed Xiao Jianqiu in front of Jin Wushu. He said that he would investigate the matter thoroughly when he returned to the village. If it was really someone from the village who did it, he would definitely hand this person over to Xiao Jianqiu himself.
Jin Wushu smiled and said: "You two are well-known figures in the martial arts world. It is a great honor for me to get to know you. Only two of you are willing to work for me. You will enjoy endless glory and wealth. Come, come, let's hold a candle. Let’s drink together.”
Lu Qiang and Xiao Jianqiu raised their glasses and drank the wine in one gulp. After drinking, Jin Wushu asked Xiao Jianqiu whether this time he came to the camp to see him was not just a personal matter. Xiao Jianqiu handed Wu Xi's autographed letter into the hands of Jin Wushu. After Jin Wushu saw the letter, he asked Xiao Jianqiu and Lu Qiang: "Prefect Wu said in the letter that a man named Fu Tianpeng escaped from the prison. This made him very scared. How come a dignified prefect of Pingjiang is still afraid of the rough and treacherous Jianghu?"
Lu Qiang stood up and said to Jin Wushu: "Marshal, you don't know something. This Fu Tianpeng is the son of Fu Cha. Back then, his father sent troops to stop Marshal Wanyan Zongwang, which caused a lot of trouble to the Kingdom of Jin. Now this Fu Tianpeng has great academic skills. Cheng, his martial arts skills can be said to be unparalleled among younger generations in the world. Moreover, he also has a deep friendship with Han Shizhong's subordinate Li Bao and the Shaolin Temple."
Jin Wushu put down the letter, touched his beard with his hand, thought for a moment and said: "Since the beginning of the war between the Jin and Song Dynasties, Yue Fei and Han Shizhong have repeatedly attacked our army, causing our army to always fall into a dilemma. Now, they have gained access to Jianghu again. The help of people is like adding more power to a tiger. In the future, it will be even more difficult for the Great Jin Kingdom to go south. Since this Fu Tianpeng cannot be used by the Great Jin Kingdom, I will secretly order Wujian Tang to get rid of him."
Now that Fu Tianpeng has escaped and is nowhere to be found, in order to avoid unnecessary complications, Jin Wushu asked Xiao Jianqiu to hand over the letter to Wu Xi, asking him to prepare troops, horses, food and grass as soon as possible, and also to do a good job in cooperating with generals and recruiting wise men and talents. Xiao Jianqiu nodded and hid Jin Wushu's letter in his underwear.
Then, Jin Wushu called a wise soldier and asked him to take care of Xiao Jianqiu's daily life. I don't know whether it was due to the fatigue of pommel horse or the excessive drinking, but Xiao Jianqiu felt tired in waves. After explaining the situation to Jin Wushu, Xiao Jianqiu followed the soldier to his stay.
After Xiao Jianqiu left, Lu Qiang said to Jin Wushu: "Marshal, this boy named Xiao is acting recklessly and will ruin things sooner or later." After hearing this, Jin Wushu nodded, and he said to Lu Qiang: "You hold my Call me, Cuiliu Villa invites the Jade-Faced Enchantress." Lu Qiang was startled when he heard the name of the Jade-Faced Enchantress.
When Jin Wushu saw Lu Qiang's expression showing great emotion, he asked him if he knew the Jade-Faced Enchantress. Lu Qiang said that he had never dealt with her, but there were many rumors in the world that the Jade-Faced Enchantress was not only charming and charming, but also proficient in making poisons and was good at the art of enchantment. It is said that no matter how powerful a person is in martial arts, if he sees the Jade-Faced Enchantress, he will eventually be able to capture her. "
After Lu Qiang finished speaking, Jin Wushu couldn't help but clapped his hands and praised: "Yes, yes, Master Lu is indeed a man who has practiced martial arts for a long time and is well-informed. The Jade-faced Enchantress is indeed what you said, but if you see She herself, her methods are probably even worse than what the rumors say."
Lu Qiang waved his hands repeatedly and said to Jin Wushu: "I'd better stay away from such witches. If the marshal hadn't come to her for something important, I would rather not see this person in my life." Jin Wushu laughed and said: " Master Luzhai, this flower is extremely beautiful. Don’t you want to get close to it?"
Lu Qiang frowned and replied: "The poison of this flower can penetrate into the femur, so let's forget it."
After the two talked for a while, Lu Qiang also returned to his room to sleep. Before dawn, he rode his fast horse all the way to the Jinbing camp and left the Jinbing camp. And Xiao Jianqiu also rushed back to Pingjiang Mansion without stopping. Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing disguised themselves and kept surveillance near Wu Xi's residence for days.
Early in the morning, a man wearing a Liuyun blouse and carrying a Qingfeng sword came knocking on the door. Zhao Xueqing pushed Fu Tianpeng, who was slightly tired, and said to him softly: "Brother Tianpeng, you see Xiao Jianqiu has come to see the prefect. When the genius sees the light, he comes to the house. There must be something very important."
Fu Tianpeng looked at Wu Xi's residence, and then said to Zhao Xueqing: "Xueqing, when Xiao Jianqiu comes back now, he must be planning some shady plot with Wu Xi. We must know the contents."
After hearing Fu Tianpeng's words, Zhao Xueqing frowned slightly, looking very worried. She asked softly: "Brother Tianpeng, is it possible that you want to enter the mansion to spy? Wu Xi's mansion is heavily guarded. You have just escaped from danger, how can you still put yourself in danger?"
Fu Tianpeng saw Zhao Xueqing worried about him, and a warm current filled his body. He held Zhao Xueqing's hand and said affectionately: "Sister Qing, now that you are by my side, no matter what happens, I will think twice before I act. Otherwise, how can I form an alliance with you in the future?"
After hearing this, Zhao Xueqing's face turned red with embarrassment. She gently broke away from Fu Tianpeng's hand and feigned anger: "Who said I want to be with you?" Just as the two of them were talking about love, they led a team of policemen towards the south city gate as fast as they could. go. After Fu Tianpeng saw Feng Zheng, he remembered what Feng Zheng had said before. If he couldn't be contacted for something, he would go to the southern suburbs of the city to find fisherman Li Datian.
Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing also followed in Feng Zheng's footsteps and headed towards the South City Gate. Fu Tianpeng deduced from Feng Zheng's eager footsteps that something extremely urgent must have happened.
