A knife in love

Chapter 557

When the two were talking, they had reached the top of Dajia Mountain before they knew it.This Dajia Mountain is a rocky mountain. Below the mountainside, there is still soil covering and some trees grow.It's just that after reaching the mountainside, there are only blue rocks as far as the eye can see, and few trees are seen.It's just that there are dead grass everywhere, and when the cold wind blows, the dry grass will make a whining sound, as if someone is crying sharply.When the official road came here, the road surface was full of uneven stones, but after walking for many years, two deep ruts had been formed on the stone road.

The two crossed the top of the mountain and walked down the mountain along the official road.Situ Qiao said: "That night in the Guanzhong, the masked man who suddenly appeared at the end was one of the two people who followed me from Gaoping to Luoyang. He was also hiding in the small town on the roof before attacking Brother Li. People. At that time, I took advantage of the fight between you and that person, and I took the opportunity to escape. Just after I fled to the front hall, I found a large number of police officers and officers and soldiers pouring into the Guandi Temple. I dodged from left to right, and finally escaped from the Guandi Temple. Emperor Temple, all the way back to Luoyang City. I know that since the officers and soldiers have arrived at Guandi Temple, they will definitely find that someone has broken into Guanzhong, and then search the whole city. So after I entered the city, I hid in Fengyi Temple The Taoist priests of Fengyi Temple often communicated with the officials of the prefect’s yamen in Luoyang. Therefore, when the officers and soldiers searched, they only walked around the courtyard after arriving at Fengyi Temple. After getting a few taels of silver from the Taoist priests, they withdrew. I stopped the temple master and forced him to take me out of Luoyang City. Unexpectedly, at the gate of the city, an eagle's claws found a hole, so I had to force my way out. I don't need to say more about the following things?"

Li Qiufeng nodded, and said, "What's your plan to barge into the north gate of Luoyang?"

Situ Qiao said: "I saw the man who attacked me in Killing Valley in Guanzhong, and thought that since this man has chased all the way to Luoyang, I must find a way to get rid of him. If I follow my original plan, naturally It is to go straight to Xiangyang, dig out Guan Yu's remains, put them together with his head, and then go straight to Gaoping with Guan Yu's remains. However, since the enemy is watching, you must first find a way to get rid of them, and then Make another plan. Ever since I met the enemy in Killing Valley, I have been followed by these two people all the time. I really have nowhere to vent my anger. That's why I made up my mind. You can do things with peace of mind. I plan to leave Luoyang, head north first, cross the Yellow River first, and then rush to Gaoping to set up organs in the ancient battlefield of Changping. Since those two people are determined to snatch the formation map on me, they will naturally follow and go To. After they arrive at Gaoping, I will lure them into the mechanism and kill them all. Heh heh, at that time, let's see who dares to spoil my big business?!"

Hearing what he said was vicious, Li Qiufeng just sneered, and said: "You warlocks are so interesting. You only think of using some harmful means to plot against each other every day. It's not like the heroes of the rivers and lakes who do things openly and aboveboard."

Situ Qiao disapproved in his heart, but he had to rely on Li Qiufeng to deal with the enemies who were chasing him, so he never dared to offend Li Qiufeng.So Situ Qiao laughed twice, and said: "Brother Li, those two traitors are vicious, they are not good people. Together, we will be able to get rid of them."

Li Qiufeng frowned, and said: "You want to use my hand to get rid of the enemy for you. Your idea is really good."

Situ Qiao smiled and said: "Brother Li, my plan is not just for myself. You have met that person face to face in Guanzhong, and you have ruined their good affairs several times since then. Even if you don't look for them, They will also come to you. Brother Li, your martial arts are naturally far superior to theirs, but when these two harm people, they use some despicable and shameless methods. If they harm you with illusions, just Brother Fear is impossible to guard against..."

When he said this, he just shut up.Li Qiufeng naturally knew what he meant, thinking that what Situ Qiao said was not bad.It's just that there was still something unclear in his mind, so he said to Situ Qiao: "Where did they know about the array map hidden in you?"

Situ Qiao said: "This is exactly what I don't understand. I took the formation map in Jingxin Temple, and even Mr. Liu and Brother Li didn't know about it. But these two people got the news, and they were in Chang'an. Pinggu set up an ambush on the battlefield and wanted to take away the formation map. The heroes who entered Jingxin Temple are all decent leaders of famous families, all of them are upright and upright, and they are not young people. Even if they know that I took something from Yao Guangxiao, they will not It will be difficult for an unknown junior like me."

Li Qiufeng shook his head, and thought to himself, if there are others watching in the cave, Liu Yong, Xu Chenghe, Chu Danyang, Taoist Qingfeng, etc. are not only great masters, but also martial arts with a long history of turmoil. Senior, that person cannot escape the eyes and ears of these people.I have fought against that person several times, this person's martial arts are not weak, but compared with Liu Yong and others, he is quite inferior.The more he thought about it, the more puzzled he became. In the end, he could only think to himself, maybe it was because Situ Qiao was not secretive, he showed his whereabouts on the road, and was discovered by those two people, so he set up a mechanism to snatch the scroll left by Yao Guangxiao from him. .

The two stopped talking and walked straight down the mountain along the official road.When the two reached the foot of the mountain, it was already dusk.The sky was covered with dark clouds, and it looked like it was going to snow.The two walked for more than two miles, but saw a thatched hut by the road not far ahead.Situ Qiao said: "According to the old man's words, you can see Wangmiao Village when you go down Dajia Mountain. It's getting dark now, but you haven't seen where Wangmiao Village is yet. Why don't I go to the family in front of me?" Ask where Wangmiao Village is, so we won't go wrong."

Li Qiufeng naturally had no objection.But Situ Qiao walked quickly to the door of the thatched cottage, reached out and knocked lightly on the door a few times.After a while, there was only a "squeak", and the door opened a gap, and then an old voice asked, "Who is it?"

Situ Qiao looked into the room through the crack of the door, but it was pitch black, unable to see clearly what was going on inside the room.He said in a deep voice: "We are merchants on the road. It is the first time we come here, and we are bothered. May I ask the old man, how can we get to Wangmiao Village?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he could only hear someone in the room "噫", but it wasn't the old man's voice just now.Situ Qiao thought to himself that there were other people in the room.After a while, I heard the old man say: "This is Wangmiao Village. You are a merchant, you don't go to the county town to do business, what are you doing in a barren village like Wangmiao Village?"

Situ Qiao thought to himself, you old guy has too many things to do.It's just that although he thought so in his heart, he couldn't say it like that, he just smiled and said: "We are going to Xiuwu County. When we came here, I heard that after arriving at Wangmiao Village, we can go eastward. Arrived in Xiuwu County. Thank you, old man."

The old man sighed, and said: "You're welcome, you can walk a short distance and you will enter the village. Walk along the village and cross the Xiaosha River, and you will see the west gate of Xiuwu County. But you have to go faster, if you walk slowly, I'm afraid the city gate will be closed, and you will have to wait until tomorrow morning to enter the city."

Situ Qiao thanked him again, and pretended to turn around to leave. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something again, turned around and asked, "Old man, I heard that there is a nunnery in Wangmiao Village that is very effective. I don't know where the nunnery is built. ?”

After he finished speaking, the old man in the thatched cottage did not answer.Situ Qiao felt a little strange in his heart, after waiting for a while, seeing that no one was talking in the room, he repeated what he had just said.But after he finished speaking, there was still no answer in the room.

Seeing Situ Qiao standing in front of the thatched cottage talking, Li Qiufeng was about to leave, but turned back.Then he stood in front of the door, as if he was talking to the people in the house.It's just that after a long time, Situ Qiao still hasn't left.Li Qiufeng was suspicious, so he quickly walked over and said to Situ Qiao, "Mr. Situ, is there no one in the room?"

Situ Qiao shook his head, and said, "Just now someone was talking, why suddenly there was no sound..."

At this time, the surrounding area was already dark, and the north wind howled, blowing the thatch on the thatched roof continuously.The whole house seemed to be trembling slightly, as if it would be blown down by the strong wind at any moment.

Li Qiufeng whispered to Situ Qiao: "Can you see who is in the house?"

Situ Qiao said: "I heard the voice of an old man, and another person, but he just gave a 'hey', so I couldn't tell who it was."

When he said this, he turned his head and looked around, and said: "Perhaps this old man is old and a little deaf. It's not surprising that he can't hear us clearly when the wind is so strong outside. But the old man said just now, This is Wangmiao Village. We only need to go a little further to enter the village. This old man is confusing, so let’s ignore him. Why don’t you go directly to the village and find someone to ask where Nani’an is? Where, Brother Li, what do you think?"

Li Qiufeng nodded and said, "Just as Mr. Situ said, let's go directly to the village."

The two had made up their minds, so they turned around and walked east along the official road.It's just that Kankan walked more than ten steps, and suddenly heard someone behind him say loudly: "Good friends, where do you want to go?"

Li Qiufeng and Situ Qiao's hearts shuddered.With the martial arts of the two of them, if someone appeared behind them, they would be alarmed immediately.It's just that at this time the north wind was whistling, and the wind was whistling in my ears, and I didn't even notice that someone appeared behind me.

Before the man's voice fell, Li Qiufeng and Situ Qiao stopped at the same time.Situ Qiao suddenly turned around, wanting to see who spoke so rudely.Li Qiufeng remained motionless, his eyes looking straight ahead.

I saw two or thirty people snatched from the woods on both sides more than ten feet away, some with iron rulers in their hands, and some with steel knives in their hands, blocking the official road in front of them tightly.

Situ Qiao turned around and looked, but saw seven or eight people standing up and down more than ten feet away behind him.These people held swords and other weapons in their hands, and they were looking at the two of them coldly.The leader was an old man with a thin face and a goatee.With his hands behind his back, the old man looked arrogant, as if he didn't pay attention to Li Qiufeng and Situ Qiao at all.He looked at Situ Qiao and turned around, then sneered and said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I've finally got you here. Get down on your knees obediently and let us tie you up, otherwise I'll beat you to death and send you to see the official!" "
