Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Tenggemu kidnapped Princess Pearl in the dead of night. He thought that he would do it perfectly and leave no clues for others to trace. Who would have thought that King Yan's ability to track and kill enemies was so great that he was chasing after her with both feet?  !  These cavalry are worthy of being lions in a hundred battles. They are as fast as the wind, plunder like fire, and they are unstoppable.  <±ù»ð#ÖÐÎÄ If the two armies were facing each other, this sudden attack by the Ming army would completely disrupt the enemy's position and kick off the killing spree.

    The roar of the iron spears is like an evil dragon rushing towards someone, eager to choose someone to devour.

    Even though Hu Xiaotian had experienced hundreds of battles and was born and died, he couldn't help but stir up a storm in his heart - who was coming here, and with a flying spear blow from more than a hundred steps away, he almost lost his fighting power?  !  When did King Yan collect such powerful men who were unique among them?  The royal family's heritage is indeed profound, beyond what one can imagine.  Although the sword in his right hand was broken, luckily he still held the ink-patterned pine needle sword in his left hand. He was about to use the sword to block the second flying spear, but he didn't know that the breath in his meridians was inconsistent, and the movement of drawing the sword was slower than expected, and he was unable to do so in time.  Defeat the killer move!  At the critical moment, Tenggemu reached out and grabbed the collar at the back of his neck and pulled. With a muffled sound, the spear passed by and was inserted diagonally into the soil, the tail of the spear buzzing and trembling.

    Hu Xiaotian couldn¡¯t help but broke into a cold sweat and whispered: ¡°Thank you!¡±

    Tenggemu picked up the immobilized Pearl Princess and said in a deep voice: "It's Zhang Yu who is chasing after her! Neither you nor I are our enemies. If we don't run away, we will die." After saying this, he jumped out in a hurry.

    Hu Xiaotian secretly lamented that he was unlucky. Due to a combination of circumstances, even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he would not be able to escape.  Even if he had a chance to defend himself, who would believe that he was not an accomplice of Tenggemu and had nothing to do with the kidnapping of the princess?  In order to regain the princess and maintain the dignity of the royal family, Zhang Yu and others would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go.  Now that the enemy is strong and we are weak, we can only save our lives first.  The two of them had just left the Earth Temple, and their traces were exposed.  But after hearing the whistles, the sound of hoofbeats became more and more urgent, and iron arrows were fired one after another, trying to delay their escape.  In the wilderness.  How could you escape a large group of well-trained cavalry with just your legs?  Hu Xiaotian said hello, and led Tenggemu to change direction and rush forward, crossing the stream along the route he came from, and rushing into the dark woods.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? The soul-chasing iron arrow hit the branches and trunks.  The vibration caused the fallen leaves to fly.

    The leaves are so dense that you can¡¯t even see your fingers in the forest.  However, Hu Xiaotian easily avoided the overgrown branches and vines and continued to run forward.  Tenggemu followed closely and asked in surprise: "Could it be that you can see the road clearly in the dark?" Hu Xiaotian knew that he could not hide it from him.  He simply admitted generously: "Exactly! However, no one knows the secret of my magical skills. Please don't reveal it to the public." Tenggemu forced a smile and said: "Don't worry, I will keep it secret." Murderous intent surged in his chest.  .  I wish I could chop the person in front of me to death.  There are such young heroes with unlimited potential among the Han people.  It is not good news for all ethnic groups outside the Great Wall, and they should find opportunities to kill it as soon as possible.  However, the situation was critical at the moment, and he was really not sure to throw off the pursuers alone. After careful consideration, he could only hold back for the time being.

    It¡¯s late at night, the forest is dense, the rocks are scattered, and the ground is bumpy and uneven.  The guards of King Yan who were speeding over did not have the miraculous ability of night vision.  Either the horse stumbles or hits a tree branch. For a moment, people shout and horses neigh, and the formation is in chaos.  The leader, Zhang Yukong, had an impressive talent, but he was unable to use it. He whipped the tree branches with his riding crop and shouted: "Tenggemu, you blind barbarian, how dare you offend the prince Huwei, I want to kill you."  I'll cut you into pieces! Unless you hand over the princess immediately to appease the prince's anger, you may be able to avoid death. Do you hear me?!"

    The cry echoed, and the old bird flew away in fright.  Tenggemu took a sip and gritted his teeth: "Do you think I'm a fool? It's weird if I believe you!" To avoid exposing his position, his voice was kept very low, for fear that Zhang Yu would hear him.

    Hu Xiaotian also lowered his voice and said: "Tenggemu, where have you agreed with the boatman to meet? Zhang Yu has limited manpower, so he can't do anything to us for the time being. Once the sky gets brighter, or the imperial army rushes to surround us, we will be unable to fly.  No! It¡¯s not suitable to stay here for a long time.¡±

    Tenggemu hurriedly said: "We have made an appointment to meet at the dock of Liangmiao Town before dawn. If you have no other way to escape, you may as well board the ship with me so that we can take care of each other."

    Hu Xiaotian shrugged and said, "I wonder how the shipping fee is calculated? I can't afford it if it's too expensive."

    Tenggemu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You don't have to worry about this. I'll cover all the expenses." He was surrounded by enemies on all sides. Being able to invite Hu Xiaotian to accompany him undoubtedly meant that he had received a lot of support and was able to fight his way out of the siege.  I hope to get another three points, just gold, silver and common things.

    Hu Xiaotian said sternly: "I'm going to say something ugly ahead of time. I have other important matters to deal with, so I may disembark at any time along the way. Don't expect me to escort you all the way out to sea."

    How dare you expect too much? Tenggemu nodded and said, "No problem! You don't owe me anything."

    Ignoring Zhang Yu¡¯s threats and inducements, the two of them quickened their pace and walked through the forest.  When they arrived at Liangmiao Town, the sky was already slightly bright and the sky was dark.The sun is gone, and the morning light is moving.  Looking along the river, the town's wharf looks very crowded, with many masts, large and small ships in a row, and strings of angry wind lanterns hanging from far and near.  People were coming and going on the pier, some ships were loading and unloading cargo, some were retracting anchors and untying ropes, and there was a mix of noise and shouts.

    Tenggemu searched for a while, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he pointed at a cargo ship that had just slipped out of the berth and said: "Look, that's it." The ship was tall and sturdy, with a black "wood" with gold trim hanging on the mast.  The flag was flying in the wind, and there were many sailors busy on the deck, so nothing unusual could be seen.  The two men immediately spread out their body skills and flew past the mast without anyone noticing, falling from the sky.

    A big man who was directing and scolding stopped his movements, looked around, and said with a smile: "Brother Teng, it's better to be early than to be lucky. You guys arrived in time, and you would have missed it if you were one step later." He was stout and his complexion was as coppery.  , a pair of bare feet fastened to the deck like nails, and his seemingly honest face hides a bit of cunning and coldness. He is by no means a simple-minded reckless man.

    Tenggemu frowned and said: "Boss Wei, I've already paid the money, why didn't you wait for me to come and sail the ship? If you don't keep your trust, who will do business with your shipyard in the future?"

    Boss Wei laughed and said, "Who said I didn't keep my word? Haven't you boarded the ship now?" He turned his eyes and looked at Hu Xiaotian sideways, and said with a sullen face, "Why did you bring one more person than agreed?  Who is this person? Will he be in trouble?"

    Hu Xiaotian clasped his fists and said: "Boss Wei, this is the first time we meet. Hu is so polite! Hu and Brother Teng are good friends. They were wanted by the government because they killed several officials who committed crimes in the past two days. There is no place for them in Xuzhou anymore.  , I had to go out to avoid the limelight. I just want to take a boat for a trip along the river, and ask Mr. Wei to take care of me." After throwing a look, Tenggemu understood.  He took out two ingots of gold and shook them.

    Boss Wei's expression suddenly changed, he raised his thumb and praised: "These days, those who dare to kill corrupt officials are all famous heroes!"

    Hu Xiaotian said: "It's a prize, it's a prize. Hu is a nobody, I don't deserve it."

    Boss Wei patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, brother. As long as I'm here, no one can catch you. But you must abide by the rules on board the ship. You are not allowed to wander around and ask questions, and you are not allowed to make noise. If you encounter the government setting up a checkpoint, you will  As long as I take care of it, I guarantee you a safe journey." His voice paused and he glanced at Princess Pearl.  The light flickers.  He smiled and said: "Brother Teng is so beautiful! I have met countless people over the years, but I have never seen a more beautiful woman than her. I am afraid she is worth ten thousand taels of gold."

    Tenggemu Dajue's face was bright, and he grinned: "Don't talk about ten thousand taels of gold, even if you trade the entire grassland, I will not agree. In my heart, she is a priceless treasure!"

    Boss Wei said disapprovingly: "Women are like clothes. No matter how beautiful you are, it's just for fun. Why do you have to take it too seriously? Men, don't hang yourself on a tree. As long as you have money, young and beautiful girls can play with you and play with you."  When you get tired of it, just try another one, wouldn¡¯t it be fun?¡±

    Tenggemu said coldly: "I don't care what other people think or do, but my woman is definitely not for toying with! For her, I will betray the tribe and shed a river of blood! Boss Wei, I don't want to hear the nonsense you just said.  Hear it a second time, otherwise don¡¯t blame me for being ruthless!"

    Boss Wei laughed and said, "Wei is a rough man and is used to being straightforward. Please don't blame me if you offend me." Without further nonsense, he turned around and led them to the secret cabin to place them separately.

    The cabin is very small, there are no windows on the bulkhead for ventilation, the light is dim, and the air is dirty and smelly.  Not long after the boat sailed, the water was bumpy, and Hu Xiaotian heard the sound of Princess Pearl vomiting from next door.  Tenggemu was busy comforting her with gentle words, but Princess Mingzhu didn't buy it and remained cold and silent.  Hu Xiaotian's senses were extended, and he couldn't hear the voices of other people on the left and right, but there was a faint whimpering sound coming from underneath the ship, like an innocent ghost asking for his soul, which was creepy.  Now my curiosity aroused, I leaned over and listened, and the whimpering sound became clearer.  At this time, I suddenly heard the water waves lapping more and more violently, and it seemed that another large ship was approaching at high speed. Immediately above my head, there was a majestic scolding sound, followed by Boss Wei's apologetic and flattering voice - it turned out to be a temporary closure of the river by the army for inspection.  The general who led the team was interrogated for a few words, and then read out loud the order of King Yan - indeed, a reward was offered for the capture of Tengemu.  The King of Yan made it clear that anyone who tips the news will be heavily rewarded, but anyone who knows the truth and fails to report it will be executed.  You must know that Tenggemu has a unique image and Princess Pearl is extremely beautiful. The two of them together are extremely eye-catching. Anyone who pays a little attention can notice something abnormal.

    Hu Xiaotian secretly admired him. He was worthy of being a famous commander in Northern Xinjiang. He was thoughtful and quick in response. He even expected Tengemu to escape by water.  He was thinking about whether it would be better to break out of the boat immediately, but unexpectedly he heard Boss Wei reply that he had never seen this suspect before.  Hu Xiaotian was puzzled. Boss Wei and Tenggemu had no life-long friendship. He gave up the wealth at his fingertips, but was willing to risk beheading to protect him., what exactly is it for?  Could it be that the person surnamed Wei is a once-in-a-lifetime man of his word?  Mr. Wei is smooth and sophisticated, his words are impeccable and he doesn't reveal any flaws.  The officers and soldiers tacitly accepted the benefits of his filial piety, made a quick inspection as usual, and then let the ship pass.

    Hu Xiaotian suddenly remembered the strangeness of the bottom cabin. He suppressed his doubts for the time being, gently pulled out the ink-patterned pine needle sword, dug a small hole in the floor, and took a peek.

    The bottom cabin was dark, but fortunately there were a few faint rays of light coming through the gaps in the ship's planks.  I saw more than ten women sitting close together in a closed space, some were sleeping deeply, some were sobbing softly, most of them were naked, and their limbs had pale skin exposed.  "Damn you bastard!" Hu Xiaotian was furious, his eyes turned red. These women were clearly being sold as goods!  No matter in troubled times or in peaceful times, there are always people who take desperate risks and secretly abduct and traffic women in order to make huge profits.  It would be a shame to die for those who commit these crimes that make humans and gods angry!

    Hu Xiaotian was so murderous that he wanted to kill Boss Wei and others immediately.  But once he takes action, how can Tenggemu, who is eager to escape, sit back and watch?  If the two of them fought on the ship, the sword energy would be devastating enough to destroy the cargo ship and cause the innocent woman in the bottom to die tragically.  What's the point of doing bad things with good intentions?  And think deeper.  The person surnamed Wei was only responsible for escorting goods, and his status was not high. Even if he was killed, it would be painless.  As the saying goes, "If you cut the grass without uprooting it, it will grow again when the spring breeze blows." He will be spared his life for the time being.  Only by following the clues and finding the leader behind the scenes can this black-hearted gang be eradicated.  Now he took a deep breath and slowly dispersed the concentrated power.  He murmured: "It turns out he wants to take advantage of Princess Pearl!"

    The reason why Boss Wei tried his best to cover up and clear the checkpoints for Tenggemu was certainly not because of the hundreds of taels of shipping money, nor was it because of his loyalty to the world.  It's not that he doesn't look down on the reward promised by King Yan. The key is that he has evil thoughts about Princess Pearl.  Princess Pearl is stunningly beautiful and has a noble temperament.  Every gesture is full of exotic charm.  It is a masterpiece that is rare to find in a century.  Especially her royal background is enough to drive any powerful person crazy.  As long as it is put up for auction on the black market, it will definitely sell for a sky-high price.  Although Tenggemu's martial arts skills are high, he has to travel hundreds of miles to the East China Sea. With the experience and methods of Wei Boss and others, they can drag him into the river and drown him with a little manipulation on the way.  Without the protection of Tengemu, Princess Pearl is no longer like dough and can be kneaded by others?  Pity her for being a princess of a country.  The future emperor's concubine may become a slave for human abuse, and eventually die in silence.

    While Hu Xiaotian was sighing, he suddenly heard two loud bangs, as if something heavy had fallen, shaking the ship from side to side.  Then someone shouted loudly: "Stop the boat, otherwise don't blame us for being rude!"

    Boss Na Wei said angrily: "You are blind, can't you see this flag with the word 'wood'? My Mu family has been traversing the waterways for many years, who dares to disturb the old age?!"

    "Mu's Boat Shop is nothing! You guys are the public enemies of our Bai Dao sects for harboring the witch and committing suicide. It would be easy to destroy your small boat shop. Those who know how to do it, hand over the witch immediately, otherwise they will be punished.  If you talk to the same party, you will be killed on the spot!"

    Boss Wei was startled, lowered his body and said: "Wei is blind and ignorant. All the heroes face me, and I apologize for my sins. You heroes are aware that the rocks shipped on my ship are mountain goods, and there are no monsters or ghosts. Have you misunderstood?"  Already?"

    "Stop talking nonsense! The witch disguised herself as a scholar in white and secretly boarded the ship at Wuliting. If it weren't for the fact that we wanted to contact all parties and asked experts to suppress the formation, how could we have allowed her to escape here? Little witch, don't hide your head and tail.  Come on, get out and die!"

    "Gegege", a string of laughter like silver bells suddenly sounded in the left cabin, followed by a loud bang, broken wood swishing in all directions, and a person burst out of the wall like a flying swallow.

    Hu Xiaotian¡¯s heart was shaking. How could this laughter be so familiar?  !

    "It is indeed the soul-stirring witch!" "Li Xuan'er, you are dead today!" "Kill the witch quickly and take revenge!" But the curses continued, the swords were unsheathed, and the shouts of the heroes were deafening.

    Hu Xiaotian never dreamed that he would be on the same boat as Li Xuan'er, so close that there was only a thin ship plank between them.  The two of them had lived together and died together, and had an ambiguous relationship, but they had to separate because of concerns about the evil master.  Recalling Li Xuan'er's enchanting eyes, which seemed both affectionate and ruthless, my heart was up and down, and I felt like I was sitting on pins and needles. I cracked the bulkhead with a slap and looked out.

    I saw more than ten speedboats chasing after me, forcing the cargo ship to slow down and stop in the middle of the river.  Li Xuan'er, who was dressed in white, landed on a small boat and was fighting with two swordsmen. The sword energy was arrogant and the bells were flying. They were killing each other indistinguishably.  What a coincidence, it was Jiang Mingfeng and Gan Yuqi who were fighting against her!  There are dozens of people nearby who are on guard. Judging from their clothing and weapons, they should come from famous sects such as Huashan, Hengshan, Shaolin, Beggar Clan, and Quanzhen.  The Bai Dao heroes relied on their status and did not swarm forward to join forces to attack. Instead, they formed several encirclements with a tacit understanding, making it difficult for her to fly.

    The more Hu Xiaotian looks at it, the more heI was shocked. Although there was no one as powerful as Taoist Priest Tianxuan among the Bai Dao heroes, they were all masters with extraordinary momentum. Their combined force was extremely powerful. It was no problem to deal with a mere Li Xuan'er. It was simply killing a chicken with a sledgehammer.

    Everyone in Bai Dao was sure of winning, and they were busy pointing and sarcastic remarks at Li Xuan'er, devaluing her martial arts and body skills as worthless.  What's more, they ridiculed and ridiculed Li Xuan'er for being ugly and skinny, and completely unqualified to be included in the "Seven Beauties of Martial Arts".

    ??As for any beautiful woman, who doesn¡¯t care about her appearance and figure?  Li Xuan'er knew clearly that they were using a tactic to attack people's hearts, but he was still so angry that his chest felt tight and his silver teeth were clenched to pieces.  How can there be any distraction when masters compete with each other?  Jiang Mingfeng and Gan Yuqi's swords became stronger and stronger, and they were about to swallow her figure completely.  Li Xuan'er has a smart mind, how can he just wait for death?  She flicked her fingernails while blocking and dodging, and a ball of scented powder quietly floated away in the wind.  Jiang Mingfeng and Gan Yuqi drew their swords and used their skills to resist the sound waves of the soul-calling bell. They unknowingly inhaled the fragrant powder. In the blink of an eye, one's face was as red as red, the other's eyes were blurred, and the sharp and fierce sword moves suddenly became like spring breeze and drizzle.  , without a trace of murderous intention.  None of the people who were raiding the formation were weak. Seeing that the situation was not right, the two Beggar Clan Seven Pockets disciples shouted loudly: "Watch the move, you witch!" Using a spear and an iron rod, they hit Li Xuan'er's vital part on the vest hard.
