A knife in love

Chapter 695

While the two were talking, Sun Guangming and others also followed.Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they saw the mist dissipate.Li Qiufeng said to the crowd: "Although the fog has dissipated, the situation is still unclear, we have to be careful. Mrs. Li goes to the other side first to have a look. If everything is safe, it will not be too late for everyone to cross the river."

Situ Qiao said: "Brother Li, your martial arts are ten times better than mine, but when it comes to trapping information, I am confident that I can beat you. Looking at the situation on this bridge, there must be no one ambushing, but if someone sets up a trap, I'm afraid that Brother Li will suffer a loss. Therefore, I will go with Brother Li so that nothing will go wrong."

Hearing that what he said made sense, Li Qiufeng nodded immediately.It's just that he was worried that Sun Guangming and Monk Xuanji would be unhappy with the two of them first, so he couldn't help looking at them.Sun Guangming nodded as soon as he met his eyes.Monk Xuanji clasped his hands together and said, "Thank you two benefactors for finding the way. The poor monk is very grateful."

Seeing that Sun Guangming and Monk Xuanji let go of their scruples, Li Qiufeng was quite relieved. He thought to himself that Monk Xuanji has high martial arts skills and Sun Guangming is proficient in the five elements.Thinking of this, he bowed his hands to the crowd, then held the police knife and strode onto the wooden bridge.Situ Qiao walked side by side with him, his eyes lingering on the bridge deck.

The wooden bridge is only three or four feet long. After Li Qiufeng and Situ Qiao stepped onto the bridge, although they were cautious, they paused for a moment with each step, and then took the next step, but it didn't take much effort, and they were already there the other side.The two looked at each other and nodded at the same time.Li Qiufeng turned his head, waved to Sun Guangming and the others and said, "Mr. Sun, Master Xuanji, come here."

After everyone had passed the wooden bridge, everyone let out a sigh of relief.Recalling the situation in the fog last night, it seems like a lifetime ago.Yang Yanzhao was extremely alert, and after crossing the bridge, he lowered his head to check the ground.After a while, Yang Yanzhao raised his head and said to Yang Ye: "Father, there are horseshoe marks on the ground, but looking at these marks, we three horses are not the only ones."

Yang Ye bent down, watched carefully, and then said to everyone: "Besides our three horses, there are five other horses' hoof prints, presumably they are the five masters and servants surnamed Gao. We I came here from Gaoping City yesterday. After encountering heavy fog, I couldn’t see anything within a few feet. I had to wander around in the fog and finally arrived here. If you follow the horseshoe mark, you should be able to find the official way back to Gaoping .”

When he said this, he glanced at Li Qiufeng and said, "Where did Mr. Li and everyone come here?"

Li Qiufeng was startled.He, Sun Guangming, and Su Yan arrived at Chitou Temple last night, and happened to meet Monk Xuanji following Situ Qiao.Then Situqiao trapped Monk Xuanji with a stone array, and took the opportunity to dig out the Zen staff and cassock buried in the ground by Sun Guangming and Su Yan.Then suddenly a strange skeleton soldier appeared, and things have been weird everywhere since then.Li Qiufeng couldn't tell where he came to this wooden bridge from.

Seeing Li Qiufeng's bewildered face, Sun Guangming hurriedly said, "To teach General Yang that we were caught in a thick fog about four miles southeast of Gukou Village. Although there are many footprints left, it may not be easy to find the footprints of when we came."

Yang Ye said: "Why don't you and I go back to Gaoping City first, and then make a fuss about it, what do you think?"

Sun Guangming nodded, and said to Li Qiufeng and Situ Qiao: "Hero Li, Mr. Situ, we ran around all night last night, and now Sinan is disabled, and we can't see the sun, so we can't tell the difference between east, west, and north. Fortunately, General Yang and others The horseshoe mark left by the mount is quite clear. Let's go back to Gaoping City first, get out of the current predicament, and then go to Taniguchi Village to find out."

Li Qiufeng and Situ Qiao had no choice but to nod in agreement.After everyone's plan was decided, they walked forward along the horseshoe mark.Walking along the way, I saw that there was wasteland all around, with countless coir grass growing.The cold wind passed by, and the scorpion grass made a whining sound in the wind.It's just that the wind direction is extremely strange, and it changes every few moments.If you want to judge the north, south, east, and west according to the wind direction, it can only be futile.

The crowd walked along the horseshoe prints for more than an hour, and from a distance, they saw a huge archway looming more than a hundred feet away.Everyone's heart trembled, and they stopped in unison.Li Qiufeng was about to speak, but he heard Yang Ye say: "Our war horses come and go like the wind, you don't bother to go and inquire, and the dog son Yansi can go there."

Hearing what Yang Ye said, Li Qiufeng thought to himself that this old general deserved to be a famous general in all battles, and he had already planned in his heart.Although he is proficient in martial arts, when it comes to marching and fighting, he is far behind the Yang family and his son.So he didn't try to be brave, and said: "Then there will be Seventh Young Master Lao Yang."

Yang Yansi had grown impatient for a long time. After hearing Yang Ye's order, he cupped his fists and said, "Follow father's order." He held the simple knife upside down in his right hand, and held the rein in his left hand, and flew onto his mount. .The war horse was quite spiritual, after Yang Yansi sat down firmly, without waiting for the owner to wave his whip, he spread his hooves and ran towards the archway in a swift motion.

Everyone watched Yang Yansi's back getting smaller and smaller, and felt a little uneasy.It's just that his horse is indeed a good BMW horse, but after half a stick of incense, only the sound of hooves was heard, and Yang Yansi had already galloped back.When he was in front of the crowd, he pulled the reins with his left hand, and the mount under his crotch stopped suddenly, and he didn't even take half a step.Li Qiufeng is a man of knowledge, seeing this horse so tame, he secretly admired it.

Yang Yansi got off the saddle and said to Yang Ye: "Daddy, there is a big archway in front of the archway. Behind the archway is a road. There are a row of houses on the left and right sides of the road. It looks like a town. It's just that the town is dead and quiet, and there is no trace of it. Voice. After a rough calculation, there are more than [-] houses on the left and right sides of the main road, and the town is about [-] steps long. Going forward, you will leave the town. The boy is in a hurry to return to his life, so he does not go any further. Go, I don’t know what’s going on outside the town.”

Yang Ye nodded, and said to himself: "We didn't pass any towns when we came here, why did the horseshoe marks lead us here?"

Li Qiufeng and the others trembled.The four of them couldn't tell the direction in the thick fog last night, and felt that they were walking in a straight line.It's just that the four of them have no idea whether they are really walking in a straight line in the fog.Just listen to Situ Qiao said: "Last night there was a heavy fog, maybe Old General Yang and the two young masters did ride through this town, but they didn't find these houses around them."

Su Yan looked at the faintly visible archway in the distance, and said in his mouth: "When I was in the fog last night, I heard the sound of horseshoes and voices. Maybe we were not far from General Yang at that time, but the fog was so heavy that we didn't see them." The other party. Mr. Situ is right, nine out of ten we all came across from this town in the fog."

Yang Ye said: "In that case, let's go and have a look. I don't know what you think?"

Whether it is Situ Qiao or Sun Guangming, although they are all arrogant and rebellious people, they have all suffered under Li Qiufeng's knife.Moreover, Li Qiufeng has a calm temperament and a thoughtful mind, so when the two of them walked with Li Qiufeng, most of the words and actions were made by Li Qiufeng.It's just that after meeting the Yang family father and son, Situ Qiao and Sun Guangming were overwhelmed by Yang Ye's power.I just feel that his words, deeds, and actions are all extremely calm.Therefore, without knowing it, Yang Ye was regarded as the leader of the crowd.Even Li Qiufeng himself has great respect for Yang Ye.Hearing what he said at this time, everyone nodded in agreement.

Seeing that everyone had no objection, Yang Yansi got impatient for a long time, spread his hands and said, "Since everyone wants to go over and have a look, what are you waiting for?!" After he finished speaking, he flew onto his mount again, and The horse rushed forward.Yang Yesheng was afraid that he might make a mistake, so he said to Yang Yanzhao, "Follow him and don't let him cause any trouble."

After the Yang family brothers rode away one by one, Yang Ye led the crowd forward.Li Qiufeng saw that he didn't get on the horse, but walked with the others, so he said to him, "Old General Yang, we are all warriors in the Jianghu, and walking is nothing. The old general is old, please get on the horse and go. , you don’t have to walk with us.”

Yang Ye laughed, and said, "Young Master Li, you don't have to worry about me. My old bones are very strong, so what's the point of going this far?!"

When he said this, he looked around, and then said: "Thousands of years ago, General Lian Po of the State of Zhao built a long wall here to fight against hundreds of thousands of tigers and wolves of the State of Qin. At that time, I was still focused on fighting the enemy. I am only over 50 years old this year, how dare I pretend to be an old man in a place where the sages fought?"

Everyone listened to his words with pride and admiration.

Li Qiufeng looked at Yang Ye's already gray temples, and couldn't help but said: "The old general is famous all over the world, and the younger generation admires it. There is just one thing I want to ask the old general, and I hope the old general will not hesitate to enlighten me."

Yang Ye said: "Mr. Li has something to say, just say it."

Li Qiufeng pondered for a while, and then said: "When the old general mentioned Lian Po, he said the word 'go to battle to kill the enemy'. I don't know if the enemy the old general wants to kill is in the Song Dynasty or in the Daliao?"

As soon as Li Qiufeng said this, Yang Ye's expression changed immediately, and he couldn't help but glance at Li Qiufeng.Situ Qiao and the others were also terrified, and they all looked at Li Qiufeng.

Yang Ye saw that Li Qiufeng looked at him with nine points of awe, but also one point of sadness, and felt a little strange in his heart.He thought for a moment, then sighed, and said: "As a general, I should worry about the emperor. The enemy of the Han emperor is my enemy. For the past hundred years, the Central Plains have been in chaos, and the emperors of Zhou and Song have treated the Han emperor. It was on this ancient battlefield in Changping, more than [-] years ago, Zhou Shizong commanded the army to conquer the north, and he fought all the way to this place. The emperor of the Han Dynasty personally led his troops to resist the Zhou army in Bagongyuan. He won first and then lost. The army suffered more than [-] casualties. If Zhou Shizong hadn't been seriously ill later, the big man would have died. However, in my humble opinion, whether it is a big man or a big Zhou, even today's Song Dynasty is a country of Han people. , always fighting in the same room, but the ones who die are all brothers. It can only make the loved ones hurt, and the enemies will be quick."
