Competing

Chapter 12
A strange bird cry sounded, and the people on the official road suddenly turned their backs.

Tripping?By the time the brown knights reacted, it was already too late.At the same time, I was shocked, how could there be a tripping rope on the official road?It's a pity that they no longer have time to wonder.There was another bird cry, and crossbow arrows made of bamboo and wood swished from the forest on both sides.Most of the brown-clothed knights fell off their horses and became a mess, swinging their swords to block, or dodging to dodge became empty talk.

Bamboo and wood arrows have limited lethality, and they can only shoot injuries and hardly cause death.In order to make up for this shortcoming, Pu Jun smeared some vegetable toxins on the arrowheads. He wanted to smear snake venoms, but was stopped by Yin Xu, just to rob money and try not to kill people.Although it does not cause death, it is still no problem to make people lose their combat effectiveness due to the itching.

What's more terrible is that the knight in brown clothes who fell off the horse was in a miserable situation when the horse was hit by the arrow and jumped around in pain.The heavy horseshoes fell, and the sternum shattered immediately, because the number of people who were trampled to death was unknown.This is purely a coincidence, and no one expected it. It was an unexpected gain for the current battle situation.

The sudden change shocked everyone on both sides, but one was surprised, and the other was surprised or terrified.

The galloping carriage stopped suddenly, and the woman in the carriage made a decisive decision, causing the ten generals to turn around and fight back.Although the number of people is still much smaller, but there are people who secretly help, the morale is greatly boosted, and it is barely evenly matched.After another round of crossbow arrows was shot, most of the dozens of brown-clothed knights who attacked in the early stage were killed or injured.As soon as the arrow stops, the returning home will seize the opportunity, ride forward and slash with a sword.The leader in brown clothes watched helplessly as the vanguard was wiped out, and couldn't help being very angry.

Yin Xu shouted, and nearly a hundred people rushed out of the dense forest.The brown-clothed knight was shocked, but after seeing it clearly, he didn't find it funny.Although the visitors were very powerful, they were nothing more than bandits holding wooden sticks and bamboo poles.

Soon, as soon as they fought, they realized that they had underestimated the enemy, and they all complained.The gangsters, in groups of three or four, held bamboo poles to distract the view, and hit the horse's legs with wooden sticks.The moment the horse was broken and the brown-clothed knight fell, the back of his head and his back were already covered with sticks.

Slash the cavalry up, chop the horse's legs down!
Yin Xu smiled lightly, and looked at the horse's leg with a sword.I thought to myself: Arrogant, right?What about riding a horse?Thinking about how powerful the Tiefutu of Jin Wushu was in "back then", the battle of Yancheng was not defeated by this move of the Yue family army.

After all the generals discovered the beauty, they followed suit one after another. For a while, the brown-clothed knight complained incessantly, causing heavy casualties.Seeing that the situation was wrong, the leader was furious, but he had no choice but to glance at the carriage in the distance, and ordered to retreat helplessly.Success is close at hand, and seeing the failure helplessly, the leader in brown is both angry and sighing.When he returned to Xianyang and couldn't do business, what would be waiting for him?Thinking of this, a faint fear surfaced in my heart.

A group of "bandits" fought against officers and soldiers for the first time, and they were cavalry. They won a complete victory, and everyone was very excited.In particular, the practice of several people working together, kicking the horse's legs, and sap the back is highly praised, and Yin Xu is even more praised.

After Yin Xu counted, only a few people were injured, and they were not serious. Such a result made him very relieved.No need to order, Pu Jun and Gao Yi have already led people to clean the battlefield.At this time, a family will walk forward to respectfully salute, and said: "Thank you for the rescue, my master invites the strong man to come forward and describe it, and thank you in person!"

Yin Xu knew that his daughter was on top of the carriage, and it was really inconvenient to get off the carriage to meet her, so she smiled and said, "You're welcome!" Saying that, he will go to the leading carriage with his family.

The moment the car door opened, Yin Xu could only feel the fragrant wind, and fixed his eyes on the two women sitting in the car.One is about thirty years old, dignified and luxurious, with good looks.Beside her was a young girl with a light gauze covering her face. She was wearing a purple autumn dress, embroidered with orchid-like patterns, which looked mysterious and noble.The long skirt hanging to the floor just covered a pair of flamboyant feet.Although it was covered by a light veil, but from the blue hair hanging on both sides, the deep lake-like eyes, the incomparably moving eyes, and the smiling expression, it can be seen that this girl must be as beautiful as a flower.

"Ma'am, miss!" Yin Xu nodded slightly as a salute.

"Thank you, my lord, for saving me. My mother and daughter are very grateful." The woman nodded her thanks, and everyone was full of ladylike demeanor.

Yin Xu smiled awkwardly, and didn't know how to answer. He originally planned to rob people, but he didn't expect to save people by mistake.

The girl said with a smile between her brows: "Young master, you don't have to be polite, no matter what kind of plan you have, it is a fact that you will save me and the others."

The girl exhaled like blue, her speech was decent and generous, she had just experienced a disaster, and she didn't feel flustered at all.This calmness and courage alone are extraordinary, Yin Xu is certain that the identities of this mother and daughter are extraordinary.

Yin Xu smiled lightly and said, "Miss, I laughed!"

The girl said again: "Forgive me for being presumptuous, the young master has an extraordinary appearance, he seems to be a scholar's son, why did he end up here?"

"Where? The lady praised it absurdly. In the next mountain, the villager offended the local officials and killed himself in self-defense. He had no choice but to avoid the disaster in the mountains."

"Oh? That's how it is! You are very talented, but have you ever planned for your future? If you don't give up, I will pay a lot of money to hire you."

Yin Xu secretly laughed in his heart, it turned out that the little girl wanted to recruit him, not to mention her family background?What do you do for a living?The key is that I already have other plans.Can't help laughing: "Miss Meng looks highly, thank you for your kindness, but the boy is a wanted criminal by the government, I'm afraid it will bring trouble to your family. Besides, there are hundreds of brothers who are willing to follow me, how can I abandon them Why don't you care?"

The girl nodded lightly, and said: "If this slave is taking the liberty, in order to thank you for saving me, I will give it to you here." As she spoke, she took out a sword from a brocade box beside her seat, and the woman beside her suddenly showed surprise. His expression was stopped by a look from the girl in purple.

The beauty hides the sword in the car?
When Yin Xu was curious, the girl handed over the long sword.Qianqian jade hands, fair skin, jade fingers like green onions, the woman's warm body fragrance hits her face.Yin Xu was a little agitated, he couldn't help being startled, and took the long sword dully.

"This sword is a gift to the young master, and I hope the young master will accept it with a smile!"

Pulling the sword out of its sheath, two seal characters came into view, Yin Xu's eyes widened but he didn't recognize them.Seeing his expression, the girl couldn't help frowning slightly, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.

The blade was out of its sheath, like a pool of autumn water, chilly, the blade was extremely sharp, and the green light flickered.With just one glance, Yin Xu was sure that it was a precious sword, a peerless sword.

"This sword is too precious. Miss, please take it back. I am ashamed to accept it." Yin Xu put the sword back into its sheath and handed it with both hands.

The girl shook her head and said: "The sword was given to the hero, and it was left in the hands of my daughter. It was buried for nothing, but the young master will bring out the best in each other with this sword."

Seeing the girl's sincerity, Yin Xu nodded and said, "If that's the case, I will be disrespectful, thank you miss!"

The girl said again: "The more than a hundred strong men outside have also worked hard, Fan Qing, I will give all the remaining hundred gold to you strong men."

"Yes!" A general beside the car led the order to go.

"Hundreds of gold?" Yin Xu's throat moved and he swallowed, he is really a rich man!
Qin Shihuang unified the world, the cars were on the same track, the books were in the same language, and the currency was also unified.The Qin system used copper coins as the next currency, that is, half and two coins, with the same weight.Gold is used as the currency, and yi is used as the unit. One yi is 20 taels, and there is another saying of 24 taels.Fifty gold is 1000 taels of gold, which is a huge sum of money in any era.

The girl in purple was really generous in her actions, and what was more important was the tone of the girl, who didn't care about the amount of a hundred gold.Especially the rest of the sentence, so how much gold did they get?How rich is this family?This is the most surprising part.

"Thank you, miss!" Yin Xu smiled in his heart, since he was kind enough to send him off, it's better not to be polite.

The girl smiled sweetly and said: "We still have to hurry, hurry, so don't bother us."

Yin Xu saluted and said: "Madam, Miss, go all the way!"

The carriage started again, and more than 20 experts would guard both sides, and left in a hurry.After walking for a while, the woman breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Zhao Gao is really a wicked person. We have avoided the road and detoured to the remote Peng Lize, but we were still discovered..."

The girl took off her veil, revealing her bright eyes and bright teeth, and said, "We have been very careful, we evacuated from Guanzhong in batches, but we were still discovered by the old thief. Chased all the way from Xianyang to Jiangdong, although we have been trying our best to hide our whereabouts, but... ...Today is really thanks to those bandits..."

"I don't know how your father and the others are doing now? May they return safely?" The woman's face was full of worry.

The girl comforted: "Mother, don't worry, there will be nothing wrong with Daddy. Zhao Gao chased us so urgently, it can be seen that Daddy has already retreated. I must have arrived in Dingtao now, and he will join us in a few days .”

The woman knew that her daughter had always been smart, so what she said must be reasonable, and her mood gradually eased.Said: "Yilan! You are too generous today, a hundred gold is a trivial matter, but the water-breaking sword is the sword of General Meng, not to mention the legend, how can you give it away so easily?"

The girl said: "Mother, my daughter doesn't want the peerless sword to be buried here. As for the legend...it's probably just a legend."

The woman said: "Will the sword be buried in the young man's hands?"

The girl nodded: "Don't underestimate this person, but in the year of weak crown, he can be respected and convinced by hundreds of ruthless gangsters. This ability alone is not easy. Shicai Niang also saw the trick of hitting the horse's legs up and down, It can be described as a surprise victory, which shows that this person has a lot of brains."

"What's even more rare is that this person is polite, decent and humble, and he is not tempted by beauty and wealth. I am soliciting, he is afraid of hurting us, and he is unwilling to give up his brother. This shows that this person is affectionate and righteous. Such a person will surely accomplish great things in the future.”

The woman half-believingly said: "That's true, but we don't even know his name, just now we forgot to ask."

"Even if asked, he might not be able to tell." The girl smiled lightly, and ordered loudly: "Fan Qing, after you go back, find out the details of that young master."

"Yes!"

The carriage galloped away, and the girl in the carriage looked at the receding scenery outside the window, unconsciously lost in thought...
