The Beacon of Kyushu

Chapter 183 The Baiteng River is blocked and difficult to travel in Wu'an Prefecture ([-])

Ruan Jie heard what Wan Jianfeng said, and saw Liu Cheng's expression was different, and knew that he couldn't hide it.He simply stood up with a sneer, pointed at the three of them with an iron crutch, and said: "Hahaha, you didn't drink the old man's poisoned wine, it's your fate, but those soldiers under you must not be so lucky, right? Tell you the truth Ladies and gentlemen, there are a thousand elite soldiers of Qu Yue hidden in this village, all of them are disguised as ordinary people, and Sir Fan Jubei outside the village led an army of ten thousand has been waiting for a long time, you and the dog thief cannot escape today!"

Liu Cheng hastily pulled out the sword at his waist, with the horizontal sword on his chest, and glared at Ruan Jie, "Old thief, so you were lying to me just now! If Shaoxia Wan hadn't noticed it in time, I and my brothers would have almost died your hand!"

With a sneer, Ruan Jie swung the iron crutch in his hand, and hit Liu Cheng directly on the head with a strong wind.I saw an afterimage in mid-air, and the sharp sound of breaking through the air, Tieguai was less than three inches away from Liu Cheng.Although the crutches hadn't arrived yet, the strength of the crutches had already swept in, making Liu Cheng nearly suffocate.

Liu Cheng originally thought that even if Ruan Jie knew some martial arts, at most he was no more than equal to him.Unexpectedly, the iron crutch in his palm was so swift and domineering, Liu Cheng's whole body trembled involuntarily in shock, he couldn't even hold the sword steadily for a while, so how could he resist it.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Wan Jianfeng quickly overturned the table, and smashed the wine jars and bowls on Ruan Jie.Although the crutch in Ruan Jie's hand was extremely sharp, the force of these things was even stronger, so he had to swing the crutch again and again to smash the flying wine jars and bowls.Using all his strength again, he turned hard and hit the table.This wooden table is very dilapidated, the wooden planks have long since rotted, and it was broken from it under the force of a crutch. The wooden planks fell heavily on the ground, and sawdust flew around.

Murong Yunyao saw that Ruan Jie's martial arts were amazing, not to mention the mediocre Liu Cheng, even Wan Jianfeng was afraid that he would be his opponent, so he took the long sword from Liu Cheng's hand and shouted: "General Liu, stinky beggar!" Yes, there is a girl here, you guys go away!"

How could Liu Cheng let Murong Yunyao face a powerful enemy alone, he quickly shook his head and said, "Miss Murong, I was going to come to recover Qu Yue according to the order of the official family, even if I died fighting for the country, I would have no regrets, how could I hurt Miss Murong?" , or you go!"

Murong Yunyao held the long sword upside down, protected the two of them behind her back, and said with a slight tilt of her head, "You beggar, get General Liu away quickly! I have to carry it out for me!"

Wan Jianfeng looked at Liu Cheng, and said, "General Liu, I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise she will lose her temper and send you and this old man to the west with a palm of the hand!"

Liu Cheng was worried about the safety of his soldiers, so he gritted his teeth and said helplessly, "Forget it, Miss Murong, be careful, I'm going to leave!" After he finished speaking, he quickly walked out of the hut to join the army.

Murong Yunyao saw that Wan Jianfeng hadn't left, and said anxiously: "You stinky beggar, hurry up too! The room is so small, you're stuck in that book for fear of accidentally hurting you!" Wan Jianfeng looked at Murong Yunyao worriedly. One glance, then walked out the door.

Ruan Jie laughed loudly and said, "Hahaha, it's no wonder that Song Jun retreated in successive defeats. Two big men actually want a little girl to protect them. Are there still half a man's blood!"

Wan Jianfeng stepped in and out of the door at this moment, when he heard Ruan Jie's sarcasm, he froze slightly.Immediately, he turned around and said to Murong Yunyao: "Little witch, I haven't exercised my muscles and bones for a long time. If I don't exercise anymore, my old arms and legs will be rusted!"

Murong Yunyao looked at Wan Jianfeng in disbelief, as if seeing the sun coming out from the west, "Smelly beggar, are you sure? If you are beaten to death by this old thing, don't blame me for not helping her!"

Wan Jianfeng smiled, "Haha, this young hero is number one in literary and martial arts, not to mention beating an old dog, it is Li Huan's wolf den, can't this young hero still come and go freely?"

At this time, there was suddenly a fierce shout of killing outside the house, and the sound of colliding with weapons.Murong Yunyao was taken aback, and asked, "Smelly beggar, you really have it! So you want to use the opportunity of grilling fish to tell Song Jun from every household that the rice wine in the village is poisonous?"

Wan Jianfeng shook his head, "Who told you that every household must have poisoned wine, so why can't you have poisoned water, poisoned tea, etc.? You really don't have a good brain!"

Murong Yunyao said angrily: "Stinky beggar, since you want to save the army, why did you abandon me and General Liu? Are you not afraid that when you come back, you will see two dead bodies!"

Wan Jianfeng smiled and said: "No, no! Before this old thing gets the news of the poisoning of the army, you and General Liu are absolutely safe."

Ruan Jie was startled when he heard the words, feeling a little flustered in his heart.He originally thought that the Song army must be hungry and thirsty after traveling long distances. With poisoned tea and poisoned wine, most of the Song army would be poisoned.I hate this Wan Jianfeng, who easily sees through his tricks.If this is the case, thousands of Qu Yue's elite soldiers will have to face the Song army ten times their size, and there is no reason to win.

Taking advantage of Ruan Jie's unsteadiness, Wan Jianfeng pulled out the handsome stick from his waist, and threw the stick around his head.Although the handsome stick is made of wood, its power should not be underestimated if it is really exerted.Ruan Jie saw that the stick was hitting his face fiercely, so he hurriedly restrained himself, and raised the iron crutches with both hands to block in front of him.

Although iron crutches and handsome sticks are similar in shape, but one iron and one wood, one heavy and one light, one long and one short, if they really collide, the handsome stick will at least fly out of hand even if it does not break.Unexpectedly, the moment Shuai stick and Tie Guai were about to touch each other, Shuai stick suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and even Wan Jianfeng evaporated from the world.Ruan Jie was taken aback, and before he could react, someone tripped his feet hard, and he suddenly lost his balance and fell heavily.

Ruan Jie put his hands on the ground, just about to stand up, but someone stepped on his back.Annoyed in his heart, he turned his head to look, and found that the one stepping on him was Wan Jianfeng who had disappeared without a trace.Wan Jianfeng was looking at him with a smile at this moment, his expression was extremely smug, Ruan Jie was so angry that he rolled his eyes and almost passed out.

Seeing that he subdued Ruan Jie with one move, Murong Yunyao couldn't help but cast admiring glances, "You stinking beggar, I didn't realize that you are quite powerful! Stop pretending to be a bear in front of this girl in the future, otherwise be careful and I will be rude to you !"

Wan Jianfeng looked at Murong Yunyao with a smile, stretched his hands to his waist, and took off his belt without hesitation.Murong Yunyao pointed with her sword, and said angrily: "Stinky beggar, what are you doing! If you dare to be rude to this girl, I promise you will not see the moon tonight!"

"Don't be so affectionate, this young hero is going to be rude to him!" Wan Jianfeng said, pointing to Ruan Jie at his feet, then bent down to put his arms behind his back, and tied a peg tightly with his trouser belt Ma Suo, Ruan Jie couldn't help groaning in pain.Wan Jianfeng saw that the binding was firm, so he moved his foot away, and pulled Ruan Jie up by the back of his hand.

Murong Yunyao was puzzled and said: "Smelly beggar, what's the use of keeping such an old thing? It's better to kill it with one sword, so you can go out to help!"

Wan Jianfeng smiled and said: "Little witch, this guy can't be killed! If you kill him, not only we two will have to go to see the King of Hades, but also General Liu and tens of thousands of Song soldiers will probably be left alone."

Murong Yunyao put the sword across Ruan Jie's neck in doubt, and pushed him slowly out of the thatched hut with one hand.At this time outside the house, the Song army and the disguised villagers were fighting fiercely. Looking around, there were corpses of soldiers from both sides everywhere. The ground was soaked in blood and was scarlet, which was very shocking.

The soldiers of the Song Army waved their spears and daggers, all brave and good at fighting.In order to protect their territory, Quyue soldiers even fought with their lives. Even though their bodies were covered with bruises, even though their clothes were stained with blood, they still roared and never flinched.Soon, the Song army was overwhelmed, and some weak-willed soldiers began to try to escape. Unfortunately, before they could run a few steps, they were overtaken by Qu Yue's elite soldiers and became ghosts under the knife.

Murong Yunyao saw that the Song army was bound to be defeated if the fight continued, so she hurriedly shouted: "Qu Yue barbarian, you all stop this girl! Your leader is now in my hands. If you want to save him, you must quickly disarm and surrender, otherwise Ben The girl will kill him at any time!"

Qu Yue's soldiers followed the sound and saw that Ruan Jie was really held hostage by the other party. They panicked for a while, not knowing what to do.Everyone look at me, I look at you, no one wants to surrender, but they dare not act rashly.

When the two sides were at a stalemate, suddenly dust rose from the southwest, mixed with the sound of countless hooves and footsteps.When Murong Yunyao was young, her father Murong Yanzhao once taught her how to judge the number of troops by the sound of the marching army and the level of smoke and dust. Although she was not very good at learning, she knew at least a glance There are 1 horses.

As the sound of horseshoes approached, a general rode a steed and led two or three hundred people, appearing in front of everyone like a gust of wind.The rest of the soldiers and horses surrounded the whole village tightly

The person who came was Qu Yue General Fan Jubei.Qu Yue's soldiers, disguised as ordinary people, hurriedly explained the matter in a series of Qu Yue's words.Fan Jubei nodded, looked at Ruan Jie and said with concern: "Chu, Tuqi. Tusai will handle it."

Ruan Jie said in shame: "Qiao Shen, Tuxilou..."

Murong Yunyao looked at Liu Cheng and asked, "General Liu, what bird language are they talking about? This girl didn't understand a word!"

Liu Cheng also didn't know much about Qu Yue's words, so he thought for a while before saying: "Qu Yue's soldiers call the general Fan, and according to the general's guess, this person is probably Li Huan's confidant Fan Jubei. What Fan Jubei said to Ruan Jie just now seems to be "Uncle, I'm late, I will save you," Ruan Jie replied, "Nephew, I'm sorry."

Murong Yunyao smiled and said: "So that's the case, that girl is not afraid that they won't withdraw their troops!"

Wan Jianfeng proudly said: "Little witch, now you know why this young hero doesn't let you kill him, right? Hurry up and praise this young hero for his wise decision!"

Murong Yunyao glanced at Wan Jianfeng suspiciously, and asked in a low voice, "Smelly beggar, how do you know he is Ruan Jie's uncle?"

Wan Jianfeng pinched his fingers, pretending to be mysterious and said: "To tell you the truth, I have been a half-immortal since I was a child, and being a physiognomist is my forte. I just glanced at this old guy casually, and put him away." The past life and the present life have been fully understood.”

Murong Yunyao didn't have time to talk to him, so she rolled his eyes at him, and then turned to look at Fan Jubei who was on the horse, "Fan, if you really want to save your uncle, then order the army to retreat a hundred miles and give the whole of Wu'an Prefecture to Ben Let the girl free up, and the rest will not be discussed!"

Fan Jubei frowned, and said in standard Chinese: "Girl, I'm afraid you haven't seen the situation clearly? Although your Song army is not weak, but trying to fight against the elite soldiers under the general's command is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. If I will give up my filial piety, and if I don't save my uncle, I will turn you into ashes in an instant!"

Liu Cheng knew very well what Fan Jubei said was true, so he could only say: "General Fan, why don't you and I take a step back, we let your uncle go, and you let us leave this village, so that neither of us will suffer, what do you think?"

Fan Jubei looked at the long sword under Ruan Jie's neck, thought for a while, and then said: "Okay, let's take a step back each according to what you said. However, if you dare to cheat, you should know your fate!"

Liu Cheng cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General Fan! Don't worry, since you are willing to let us live, we will never hurt Uncle Ling."

Fan Jubei nodded, "Okay! Ladies and gentlemen, quickly give way to the Song army on the road to the sea. Anyone who dares to disobey the general's orders will be subject to military law!"

"Tuntiouer!" The soldiers in the northeast responded in unison, and at the same time walked away to the sides with neat steps, giving way to the Song army.Liu Cheng cupped his hands again, and hurriedly led the soldiers towards the warship by the sea.Murong Yunyao and Wan Jianfeng also escorted Ruan Jie, and followed the army out of the encirclement.Fan Jubei ordered the troops to gather and keep some distance from the Song army, and he also came to the seaside.

Liu Cheng ordered Zhang Li to urge the soldiers to return to the ship, and he gave another deep salute to Fan Jubei, "General Fan, thank you for your mercy this time, I hope we will never see each other again in the future, otherwise Liu will be afraid I can't bear to harm the general."

Fan Jubei said: "General Liu, there is a reason for this incident, I let you go, you don't need to take it to heart, if we meet again, I will never let you go!"

Murong Yunyao smiled and put down the long sword in her hand, "General Fan, my girl's hands are a little sore, please return it to you from your uncle!"

Fan Jubei clasped his fists, immediately got off his horse, and came behind Ruan Jie himself to loosen his straps.He wanted to throw away this dirty and torn trouser belt casually, but Wan Jianfeng quickly stopped him, "Hey, General Fan, you can't throw this away! This young man is so handsome, if my trouser belt is caught by someone The girl who adores this young hero picks it up, so is that okay?"

"Give it back to you!" Fan Jubei smiled slightly, and threw the belt back to Wan Jianfeng, then helped Ruan Jie get on his horse, and led the army away with the horse himself.Liu Cheng looked at Fan Jubei's back, and couldn't help sighing: "Fan Jubei is both literary and military, loyal and filial, and he really lives up to his reputation!"

Murong Yunyao handed the sword to Liu Cheng, and said: "General Liu, it seems that with Fan Jubei around, Wu'an Prefecture is really not going to work, what should we do next?"

Liu Cheng gritted his teeth, and said resolutely: "The army is headed north, to the Lonely Soul Gorge. Even if there is a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, we can only break through it!"
