The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 568
The water of the Yellow River circles the wall of the Han Palace, and the autumn wind and geese on the river flow a few lines.

The guest chased the wild horse through the trench, and the general shot the sky wolf with his arrows.

Huang Chen's ancient crossing fans fly away, and the white moon crosses the sky to cool the battlefield.

I heard that Shuofang is so brave, but who is Guo Fenyang now.

—— "Autumn Hope" Li Mengyang (Ming Dynasty)

……

The Battle of Beiku ended, and the heroes bid farewell with tears in their eyes.

Iron Hammer asked Xiucai and others to leave the mountain from Savage Valley, and handed over Eagle Fort to Husi Village for protection.

Due to the special status of the lone wolf, the three Hammers were not tortured in the rebel prison.It's just that the conditions in the prison are damp and crude. The injuries Hammer and Lynx'er received before they were arrested have not been healed thoroughly, and they festered and pus repeatedly.

Bai Fu had superb medical skills, gouged out the carrion with a silver knife, applied a gold wound medicine made of deer live grass, and wrapped it in gauze.Then let the two of them take the elixir "Yuchan" secretly prepared by Qingcheng.

After a lot of effort, after three days of training, Hammer and Lynx can walk on the ground and move their muscles and bones slightly.

Since the Tang Yan war was about to break out, and military affairs were in hand, he could not stay for long.Hammer intends to return to Shuofang Army as soon as possible.

Shan Yunheng and Li E knew it was powerful, so they didn't want to keep it too much.Shanyun Hengming selected the best horses and weapons and equipped them for the Lone Eagle Squad.

Because Hammer and Lynx were injured, they did not cross Savage Valley on the return journey.

Ding Jiuqu and Sheng Hailiu arranged for several warships disguised as civilian ships to arrive at Luoyang through the Yongji Canal.

Although the distance is a little longer, the boat is labor-saving and comfortable, which is good for Hammer and others to recuperate.

After getting ready, the Lone Eagle team will soon return to Luoyang.

When saying goodbye, Shan Yunheng and Bai Fu had a big bear hug.

Shan Yun said arrogantly: "Brother, the upcoming battle is extremely dangerous, you should take care. If you can't beat it, run away, don't be ashamed. Living is more important than anything else!"

Bai Fu smiled and said: "Old Dan, don't worry. I will return it when the war is over. You will keep the good wine seized this time for me, and no sneaky ones are allowed to drink it up!"

Shan Yunheng laughed heartily and readily agreed.

Li E walked up to Bai Fu and said, "Brother Bai, haven't you been asking me why I didn't join the Tang army? The officialdom is dangerous, and so is the army. The higher the rank, the more dangerous. Marshal Guo is a typical example.

I'm an arrogant person, and I can't bear the slightest grievance.

Standing on the top of a mountain by yourself, you have the final say, and you are a good hand.But if you are in a highly hierarchical army, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not be framed by others.

You are unparalleled in military tactics, but you have too little experience in dealing with the world.

In this battle of Beiku, you are too sharp.In court and in the army, as many people appreciate you, as many people will envy you.Don't be too careful.

As the old saying goes, you only talk about three things when you meet people, don't throw all your heart away! "

……

Everyone waved goodbye, and in the glow of the sun, the Lone Eagle team set sail.

At night, the boat berths at the shore.I saw the waning moon holding the mountain, and the frost sprinkled on the river.The gurgling of the river made the night terrifyingly quiet, making it difficult to sleep.

Bai Fu rested his hands on his head and was lying in the cabin of the black awning boat. He suddenly thought of a poem that has been widely circulated recently. Written by the judge of Yantie County (now Nanchang, Jiangxi Province) on his way.

The sky is full of frost and moon, Jiang Feng Yuhuo is sad.

Hanshan Temple outside Gusu city, the bell to the passenger ship at midnight.

...

Bai Fuzheng was overwhelmed by Zhang Ji's artistic conception, when he suddenly heard the slight sound of bubbles spitting out from the underwater near the boat.If it weren't for this silent night, these subtle voices would be hard to detect.

Bai Fu had participated in the training of secret agents of the Tang Sect, so he knew that this was the breathing sound of an assassin hidden under water.

Bai Fu opened a corner of the boat curtain, and saw a dozen or so reed tubes vertically inserted into the nearby water surface.

Assassins breathe through these reed tubes.

Bai Fu sneered, and said in his heart: "These assassins didn't swim here just now, but they have been waiting here for a long time. It seems that there was a secret operation inside, and the whereabouts of the Lone Eagle Squad were reported to the enemy."

Bai Fu remains calm, if there is any careful work, he will be among the boatmen.Just to pull it out.

Bai Fu closed his eyes slightly, sat cross-legged in the cabin, concentrated his energy, and waited for the assassin to strike.

Bai Fu entered the realm of inner contemplation, his ears were concentrated, and no movement or movement within a radius of ten zhang could escape his eyes and ears.

Only a slight clicking sound could be heard, faintly coming from underwater.

Bai Fu was very surprised.

Although the winter season is approaching, the first snow has not yet fallen, and it will take some time before the river freezes.Is it possible that the winter in Hebei Road is coming earlier?
Between Bai Fusi's lining, the sound of bubbles in the reed tube gradually extinguished.

"Click"

The sound of breaking the ice came, and a burly and tall masked man jumped out of the water wearing a water tank, and stabbed at the boat next door to Bai Fu with a long sword in his hand.

"Didn't you bother us?"

The lone wolf also woke up, opened the curtain of the boat to look around, quite puzzled.

Bai Fu glanced at the lake, and sure enough, as he knew it, the calm lake had frozen.The frozen lake is like a mirror, reflecting a bleak light under the waning moon.

Under the transparent ice, a dozen or so assassins had stiff expressions and surprised faces, and they were actually frozen under the ice, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.

Hearing a soft scolding, a figure jumped out from the boat next door. Under the wrapping of the night clothes, she had a graceful figure and well-proportioned bumps. It turned out to be a masked woman.

There were actually two skates on the soles of the leather boots of the black-clothed woman. As soon as she stepped on the ice, her figure was as swift as the wind, agile and light, like an ice elf.

The tall and burly man stabbed three swords, but he avoided it with his swift movement.

It was the first time for Bai Fu to see this kind of ice and snow kung fu, and he was very fresh.

The woman in black spun around, shoveling up a piece of ice and snow, like a cloud of snow fog, attacking the burly man.The burly man couldn't see anything, so he quickly withdrew his sword and slashed out with his palm, splitting the cloud of snow and mist.

At this moment of pause, the woman in black stepped on the ice, like a black lightning bolt, and stabbed the burly man with the weapon hidden in her waist.

The black-clothed woman's weapons are two Japanese swords, one long and one short. The blades are rolled up, and they are shining coldly against the ice.

Bai Fu secretly said: "Fusang warrior?"

The burly man was taken the initiative by the woman in black and had to defend passively.

The black-clothed woman's swordsmanship was sharp and fierce, and she rushed to attack, killing the burly man in a hurry.Several times he was almost cut to the point.

The burly man roared, and instead of retreating, he advanced, and instead of attacking the woman in black, he slashed in the void with his sword.

"Yi swordsmanship?!"

Bai Fu's swordsmanship is superb, and he knew the origin of this swordsmanship at a glance. It was actually the lost swordsmanship of the Central Plains——Yijianshu!

Yi Jianshu is an extraordinary skill that combines Go theory into swordsmanship.Just like when playing chess, you have to move halfway and look at three moves. Pursue the first move and take the initiative.

Yi swordsmanship is about anticipating the enemy's opportunity first.The prerequisite for performing it is to have a good eye to understand the opponent's martial arts and understand the opponent's attack route, so as to make an accurate judgment, and block the opponent's back move first, and then be able to control the enemy.

The more sophisticated the swordsmanship, the more accurate the judgment of the opponent.

Entering the rank for the first time, you can predict the enemy's next move.According to legend, if you practice to the ninth stage of Yi swordsmanship, you can predict the changes in the nine moves of the enemy's backhand, which is mysterious and subtle.All supernatural powers change, and they are self-sufficient.

Yi swordsmanship is the famous swordsmanship of Huer, a famous general in the Sui Dynasty. Since he was killed in the Jiangdu mutiny, there has been no successor of Yi swordsmanship in the world for hundreds of years.

There is an incomplete sword manual of Yi swordsmanship in Qingcheng, but none of the elders of past dynasties, including the head of Qingxuan, can get a glimpse of the whole picture of Yi swordsmanship.

After Bai Fu obtained the true energy of Kan Ding, the head of Qingxuan finally passed on the Yijian technique in this incomplete sword manual to Bai Fu.

Yi swordsmanship is mysterious and subtle, just relying on the one and a half moves in this incomplete sword manual has already benefited Bai Fu a lot.

Back then, when Bashu defeated Qin Yongjie in the sword debate, and when he faced the sword demon Dugusu on the top of Huashan Mountain, Bai Fu turned defeat into victory in the decisive battle and narrowly escaped death.

Bai Fu was naturally shocked to see him accidentally today.

What made Bai Fu even more gratified was that the comprehension of the burly man's swordsmanship seemed to be higher than that of Bai Fu.

……

Sure enough, this sword seemed to be incomprehensible, but it happened to be on the attack line of the woman in black's next move.If the woman in black didn't retreat, she would definitely bump into the burly man's sword.
