The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world.

Chapter 557 Kill the younger one, here comes the older one
Yang Kaitai was quite surprised, "Brother Lian and his wife are also planning to go to the northwest? In this way, I won't be lonely anymore."

Lian Chengbi said, "I still have to go back to Jiangnan to make arrangements for Wuque Villa, so I definitely won't have time to be with you."

“Not necessarily.” Yang Kaitai said, “I am going to take a large amount of gold and silver to the outside of the Great Wall this time. I need to gather the silver and money in Qilu, Central Plains, Shanxi and Hebei, and then go through the Guanzhong Road, so it will take some time.”

Shen Wenyu asked, "Why?"

"Of course it's because there's a lack of money outside the Great Wall." Yang Kaitai said, "Merchants from the Central Plains bring silver bills, but merchants from the Western Regions don't recognize silver bills, so they will exchange silver bills for gold and silver outside the Great Wall and take them away."

"Those are all large-scale transactions. Brother Yang has to transport a lot of money this time. I guess the outlaws along the way have all heard the news, right?" Lian Chengbi smiled meaningfully. "How many escort agencies did Brother Yang call on to escort the shipment this time?"

"This time, the insurance is provided by 72 joint escort agencies from 7 provinces in the south and 63 provinces in the north." Yang Kaitai said, "Situ Zhongping will personally escort it."

Lian Chengbi smiled and said, "Isn't that as stable as a rock?"

Yang Kaitai sighed, "I hope so!"

"Doesn't the Shaolin sect send out any soldiers?" Lian Chengbi asked.

"Hey? How did Brother Lian know?" Yang Kaitai asked, "This time, not only are there two elders from the Shaolin Sect accompanying us, but there are also three senior monks from the White Horse Temple, Baozhu Temple, and Qinglong Zen Temple. They said they want to see what the Western Buddhist land of a thousand years ago looks like now."

Lian Chengbi blinked and said again, "That's still as stable as a rock!"

Shen Wenyu couldn't help laughing.

Then Liu Yongnan came over to this small circle, glanced at everyone with a nonchalant look, and then said with a smile, "I have heard about the scenery of the Western Regions for a long time, and I yearn for it. I wonder if I can go with you to the outside of the Great Wall?"

Yang Kaitai nodded, "Since it's on the way, of course it's okay."

Liu Yongnan smiled and said, "Then it's a deal!"

……

After returning to Shenjiazhuang, Lian Chengbi did not take Yang Kaitai's matter to heart.

He and Shen Bijun stayed with Old Lady Shen in Shandong for several days.

Shen Bijun was so silly that she just felt happy, but Old Madam Shen knew what was going on. She gave Shen Bijun a few words of advice and then sent them back to Jiangnan.

On the Grand Canal, on a passenger ship heading south, Shen Bijun admired the scenery along the coast while repeating the words of Old Lady Shen to Lian Chengbi.

Lian Chengbi smiled and said, "The old lady has eaten more salt than we have eaten rice, so what she said is certainly reasonable."

Shen Bijun looked a little guilty.

Then Lian Chengbi changed the subject and said, "But..."

"But what?" Shen Bijun asked.

"But everything she said has a premise." Lian Chengbi said with a smile.

"What's the prerequisite?" Shen Bijun asked.

"It's just that my martial arts are not enough to extinguish the ambitions in those people's hearts." Lian Chengbi said with a smile.

Lian Chengbi patted Shen Bijun's hand and said, "When a person's martial arts skills reach a certain level, many things will become very simple."

"And I have enough experience to handle the follow-up matters." Lian Chengbi said.

……

So, a month later, when Lian Chengbi and Shen Bijun set out on the journey north to Guanzhong again, they had no worries at all.

In one month, not only was Wuque Villa managed in an orderly manner, but even Shen Bijun felt that she had grown a lot.

When heading north this time, Shen Bijun did not choose to take a carriage, but instead rode together with Lian Chengbi, thus solidifying the reputation of "the pure couple".

Coming to the road north of Huai'an City again, Shen Bijun couldn't help but think of what happened here a month ago and sighed.

The six gentlemen of the martial arts world in the past have become the five gentlemen of the martial arts world today.

Li Gang was expelled.

At this moment, there was a sound of string pulling, followed by a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

Shen Bijun only felt a silver light suddenly shoot out from the woods next to her and shoot straight at her. This silver light was as fast as lightning, chasing the wind and lightning, and before she could react, it had already passed by her eyes, as if it would hit Lian Chengbi's face next to her.

But the next moment, just when Shen Bijun's scream was stuck in her throat, she found that the silver light suddenly disappeared.

No, it didn't disappear, but it suddenly stopped in mid-air!

The silver light revealed an image, which turned out to be a thumb-sized silver pill.

Two fingers clamped it out of thin air.

Lian Chengbi's fingers!

Shen Bijun subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but she seemed to hear a gasp in the woods.

The sound of the bowstring rang again, and twice in a row.

This time, it was not one silver light that shot out, but six.

Three of them were shot at Lian Chengbi, and the other three were shot at Shen Bijun.

Lian Chengbi narrowed his eyes and finally drew his sword.

"choke--"

Lian Chengbi drove his horse closer to Shen Bijun with his left hand, and swung the sword in his right hand, splitting the six silver pills into twelve pieces, which fell to the ground one after another.

"Great swordsmanship!" A rough voice sounded in the woods, "Come on with my rain of flowers!"

The next moment, the sound of bowstrings rang out continuously, and then silver light shot out from the woods, and Shen Bijun couldn't count them.

They were densely packed, stretching forward, backward, and continuously, blocking the space of nearly ten feet above, below, left, and right, blocking their way of dodging and retreating.

Shen Bijun's breathing almost stopped.

She doesn't mix with the underworld, but she knows martial arts and basic knowledge of martial arts.

Most people use hidden weapons by throwing them with their hands, because the power of the hidden weapons is determined by their shape and size as well as the individual's internal strength.

The Shen family's golden needles are of this type, light and small, and do not rely on strength to win.

The hidden weapon catching technique she practiced was designed to deal with this kind of situation.

In addition, there are hidden weapons that are activated by springs, which are generally more powerful. Few people can catch this kind of hidden weapon with their hands.

However, the springs of these hidden weapons are mostly short and hidden. Although they are powerful, they are not the strongest.

The strongest is the bow!

The force unleashed by a bowstring three to five feet long far exceeds human power, and the sharp arrow shot out is enough to pierce a human body.

What's more, the other party didn't use sharp arrows, but small silver balls.

Lian Chengbi was able to catch one pill with his hand and chop down six with his sword, which was beyond Shen Bijun's expectations. No matter how fast his swordsmanship was, could he still chop down the silver pills that were raining down?

The fact is, yes!
Just as the silver balls were approaching them, Lian Chengbi drew his sword.

The sword light was like rain, turning into a sword net, meeting the continuous silver light like rain.

As Lian Chengbi drew his sword, his voice came out clearly, "This is not called a rain of flowers from the sky, this can only be called a chain of silver bullets. Although you have tried hard to make them arrive at the same time, your technique is not yet perfect. After all, the control of the bowstring is not as good as that of the hand."

As soon as Lian Chengbi finished speaking, the silver light in the sky disappeared completely.

……

In the woods opposite, a tall old man wearing a bright red cloak and with silver hair was stunned when he saw this scene. He then stamped his feet, turned around and left.

However, the moment he turned around, a clear voice sounded in his ears, as if it was very close.

"Li Qingfeng, you're not going to avenge your son?"
