Chapter 1021 Reassuring
The scorching sun, the vast loess, the heat wave southerly wind, the dust flying, and the sky scorched.

The wind and sand receded, and the earth became silent, but the heat wave did not dissipate, but gathered on the ground.

On the ancient carriageway, filled with steam, the carriage passed by at full speed.

The horse was sweating profusely, and the whip in the driver's hand was still waving.

There were six sectarians in the car.

They had just handed in the customs clearance document issued by the state government at Yanmen Pass, and continued northward. After crossing the Sanggan River, they came to Shuozhou, the border land in people's mouth.

Others are trying to get out of the border, I really don't know why they rushed there on their own initiative.

There were two people sitting outside the carriage, one of them was driving the carriage, and the other was holding a long sword.There were four people sitting in the carriage, and a middle-aged man was seated. He used to have thick eyebrows and a heavy beard, but now only thick eyebrows remained, and his beard became thinner and thinner.This person is none other than Feng Zhenqing, the leader of the Yunzhou Sect of the Red and Black God Sect who was castrated by Cao Xiaobao.

Feng Zhenqing is now wearing Taoist clothes, and still holds the feather fan in his hand.

On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, when he saw King Qin beheading King Kang, he prepared a carriage and stood guard at the city gate.If Cao Yuzan wins this turmoil, he will realize his wish.But if he finds something is wrong, he will leave the city immediately.

However, the development of the situation is going in a bad direction.

After the "death" of King Kang, the faction of the virtuous king took the upper hand and swallowed the legacy of King Kang, while Cao Yuzan left the city in a panic, unable to return to heaven.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was certain to lose, Feng Zhenqing's dream of becoming the Jiedu envoy of Hedong was over, so he quickly left Luoyang with five personal disciples and hid in Daizhou.

Later he heard that the King of Qin amnesty the world, and successively issued three lists of pardons, but Feng Zhenqing's name was not included in any of them.At this time, he felt that the situation was not good, so he took five disciples and planned to leave Liang Dynasty.

The five disciples are Gu Daotong, Gan Sanba, Wu Chunfeng, Ma Changfeng, and Liu Qingfeng.Their martial arts are comparable to those of the Arhats of the original god religion.

A horse-drawn cart can't run fast at all. When encountering an uphill road, the disciples have to push the carriage down.Not a day later, they came to the Sanggan River.

"Master, there is only one boat here that can ferry carriages, but it is currently being repaired, and we will not be able to leave until tomorrow," said the first disciple Gu Daotong.

Feng Zhenqing shook the feather fan lightly, opened the curtains, and looked out.

The reason for buying a car instead of hiring a car is because no one wants to go out of Yanmen Pass.

It is easy to go out, but difficult to go back.

The customs clearance certificate of Yanmen Pass can only be used once.If you want to come back, you need to go to Shuozhou to apply for a customs clearance certificate.

Who wants to go to the government to do business?Whether it is an official or a small official, they all look lazy.His face is ugly, his words are ugly, and he often makes things difficult.It will inevitably cost money to manage them.If it's something to eat, it's still easy to handle.There are also those who eat meat but don't spit out bones, catch the carriage, and find faults in all kinds of ways.It is said that the axle is old and unqualified, and you will be fined 160 yuan.People also kept saying that it was for your safety.But if you don't pay the money, then you don't want to leave, the car will be confiscated and parked at the gate of the yamen.Daily parking fee of [-] yuan.I can't kill you.

If things go on like this, no coachman is willing to do such a job.

Feng Zhenqing looked towards the Sanggan River, and said in a calm tone, "Let's cross the river as soon as possible."

Gu Daotong asked: "What about the carriage?"

Feng Zhenqing pointed with a fan: "Sell to those ship repairers."

Gu Daotong agreed, and drove the car to the ship repairing side.

Looking over, it was nowhere to repair a boat, but a group of people who looked like boatmen were sitting under the side of the boat to enjoy the shade, and there was nothing wrong with the boat.Hearing that someone wanted to sell the carriage, more than a dozen boatmen gathered around and shouted that they would give 2000 yuan at most, if they wanted to sell it, they would sell it, and if they didn’t sell it, they would be knocked down.

Looking at the virtue of the boatmen, one can tell that these guys are not normal boatmen.They occupied the river wharf, and specially pitted the horses and chariots who wanted to cross the river.

According to what they said, if you wait here all night, you have to go to a small shop not far away to spend the night; if you want to take other small ferries, the carriage must stay on the river side.There is no other choice.After all, the carriages stranded here cannot go back to Yanmen Pass.

"Two thousand, isn't it too little?" Feng Zhenqing got out of the carriage shaking his fan, pointed at the horse and said, "You can see clearly that this horse alone is worth 20."

The head boatman sneered and said, "If you don't say what Grandpa said twice, it's only two thousand. If you can sell it, get out!"

Feng Zhenqing snorted coldly, raised his hand and slapped the horse's left cheek, but saw the horse's right cheek pierced through and sprayed blood, and the horse died immediately before his eyes.

Seeing this, more than a dozen boatmen suddenly took a step back, and at the same time drew their knives and axes from their waists, glaring angrily.

Feng Zhenqing ignored them, but asked his disciples to burn the carriages and horses, even if they were burned to ashes, they would not leave them.

Then the six master and apprentice walked to the river.

Not to mention there was a ferry, even if there wasn't one, the mere river water wouldn't be able to stop the six of them, master and apprentice.

In other words, since they are so powerful, why not force the boatmen to pull them across the river?
Feng Zhenqing had already set foot on the small boat, and suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes approaching from far to near, and the sound was rapid. Looking around, he saw a man in black riding a horse and galloping towards the big ship that was being "repaired".

Due to the distance, I couldn't see who that person was, but I felt a little familiar.

……

Six masters and apprentices crossed the river, and stayed in Shuozhou City that night, eating and drinking and other trivial matters were not mentioned, Feng Zhenqing took a bath, then sat on the couch in the room, closed his eyes and meditated.

For ordinary people, such a long journey will inevitably feel exhausted.But for those warriors with good internal skills, traveling by car will not exhaust them.The five disciples were watching the sumo match in the lobby of the inn at this time, and they also cast the lottery.

The first apprentice Gu Daotong and the second apprentice Gan Sanba love to play the most. They took the lead, standing in the innermost part of the crowd and shouting loudly to cheer for their sumo wrestlers.

On the contrary, Liu Qingfeng, who was the youngest, didn't like to watch the excitement, and soon left the crowd and returned to the house.

But he found that the master was missing.

At first Liu Qingfeng didn't pay much attention to it, he just thought that Master went to the latrine or went for a walk.Otherwise, Feng Zhenqing has always been safe in handling things, and will never leave without saying goodbye.

But this time it was strange, Master didn't come back until it was getting dark.

Gu Daotong and Gan Sanba were still playing outside, throwing dice with some unknown people, while Wu Chunfeng and Ma Changfeng were flirting with prostitutes on the other side, Liu Qingfeng was a little anxious, and ran to Gu Daotong and said, "Daddy!" Brother, Master is gone!"

"Master is gone?" Gu Daotong said indifferently: "Where can he go? At most, he will go to a nearby Taoist temple for leisure."

Gu Daotong patted the money bag: "He put all the money with me, and you are still worried that he will leave us and run away by himself?"

Liu Qingfeng frowned: "How do you say that? Master and apprentice are like father and son. How could it be that they are worried that Master has run away? I am worried about Master's safety."

"What's our master's skills? Are you worried?" Gu Daotong's face darkened: "Go, go, and cool off. If you are worried, you can go out and find him, and don't bother me."

Hearing this, Liu Qing walked out of the inn vigorously and asked where there is a Taoist temple.A well-meaning person told him, so he followed the direction guided by the villagers to look for it.

Shuozhou is very famous, but the city is very small, and its main function is a military fortress. There is only one Taoist temple, one Lama Temple, and nothing else.Liu Qingfeng turned around, and it was already time to light the lamp, but he couldn't find Feng Zhenqing, thinking that the master had already gone back, so he walked back in a low mood.

When he approached the inn, he saw an old man in black robe leading nine swordsmen to surround the inn.

Liu Qingfeng was startled and hid behind the wall.

Just after hiding, the black-robed old man waved his hand, and nine swordsmen rushed into the inn, and then there was a fierce fight. It seems that these nine people have a clear goal, and ordinary people will let them go, except for a few brothers wearing Taoist robes .

Just as doubts arose in his heart, he saw the senior brother Gu Daotong rushing out the door, but just as he ran out, the old man guarding the door scratched his head with his claws.

"Oh my God--!"

Liu Qingfeng's martial arts were not considered weak, but he didn't see clearly how the black-robed old man did it. He just felt that he was teleported in front of the senior brother, and then the senior senior brother's head was deformed and died on the spot.

With such a master, his martial arts are by no means inferior to his master's. Liu Qingfeng was afraid to go to rescue other senior brothers.

Suddenly feeling someone pat on the shoulder, he turned his head and saw that it was Feng Zhenqing.

"Xiao Wu, only you are smart, come with me!"

It turned out that Feng Zhenqing had expected that someone would chase him and kill him, so he hid, but the four disciples who stayed in the inn suffered.

Feng Zhenqing just said a word, turned his head and ran away, and Liu Qingfeng followed behind wiping away tears.

He really wanted to ask Master, who is that old man in black robe, and who are those nine swordsmen?
……

Xiuchun knife pierced Ma Changfeng's chest, and the swordsman shook his hand, Ma Changfeng's body fell to the ground, leaving the knife in the air.

The knife-wielding man had a long thin face and a sinister complexion, but he still couldn't hide his original handsomeness. It's a pity that he won't have a beard anymore.

Hua Tingfeng withdrew his knife: "Li Wantang, you made a mistake again. Feng Zhenqing is not here."

The face of the black-robed old man was hidden in the hood, he raised his eyes slightly, his strange pupils shone coldly: "I'm not mistaken, he must be around here. It depends on whether you can find him."

Hua Tingfeng turned around, with a pair of big eyes on his slender face, extremely sinister.For some reason, he didn't look like Emperor Wanlong at this time, but more like King Kang: "Li Wantang, you have to understand that I am here to kill Feng Zhenqing, not for you."

Li Wantang let out a dry laugh: "I didn't say you were doing things for me, we just have the same goal."

The corners of Hua Tingfeng's lips curled up, because he remembered a comforting thing - his name was included in the first pardon list.

And he later heard that King Qin wanted Feng Zhenqing's head.He didn't know why King Qin wanted Feng Zhenqing's head, but he was willing to dedicate this head to King Qin as a reward.

Hua Qixia has always been the one who will repay all grudges and repay kindness.
