Shifang Wusheng

There was an endless stream of pilgrims at the foot of the mountain, and they seemed to be unaffected by his killing before.

"It is said that within ten miles is a place, and ten miles away is another place. This is actually true." Cheng Kai was riding a horse, talking sideways with Wei He.

"Has little brother Wei ever been ten miles away?" He asked with a smile.

"No." Wei He shook his head. "Uncle Cheng, why is it so dangerous ten miles away?"

"Because of bandits, bandits." Cheng Kai sighed, "Ten miles away is the boundary line between Hongjiabao and One Ear. Within ten miles, there is Hongjiabao's forces, so it is safe. But ten miles away, that It’s within the range of one ear, if you want to cross the road, you can, but you have to pay.”

"Hongjiabao, one ear?" Wei He heard this for the first time.

"Isn't it strange that it should be the responsibility of the city defenders, but Hongjiabao is guarding the border?" Cheng Kai continued.

"This Hong family castle was originally a wealthy local family. The family has been officials for generations and has a very good reputation. But later, Feiye City changed its guard, and for some reason, it clashed with the Hong family.

As a result, the two sides had a big conflict, and after a final compromise, the Hong family withdrew from the inner city and built an earthen fort outside, named Hongjiabao.

But because the Hong family had favored too many people in the past and had great connections, the guards in the city were not easy to move, so they could only secretly acquiesce. "

"Who is this ear?" Wei He asked.

"One ear is a famous bandit nearby. He is very powerful and has a lot of people. This is the one in the surrounding area." Cheng Kai gave a thumbs up.

"Because there were several conflicts with Hongjiabao when the fort was being built, and one ear was defeated and returned, so the two sides agreed on a boundary. It is ten miles away."

He paused, and seemed to remember something again.

"By the way, I have to remind you. Ten miles away, there is not only one ear, but also the second faction of the legendary three gangs and two factions. If you meet in the future, don't offend easily, and be courteous."

"Okay." Wei He nodded.

Cheng Kai didn't elaborate on the names of the three gangs and the second faction, and Wei He wasn't in a hurry, since he knew a general clue, he would be able to find out sooner or later.

Chapter 18

Ten miles away, the scenery outside remains the same.

Wei He glanced over.

It was noon.The sun shines down, illuminating the woodlands in the distance on both sides.

There are no fields on both sides of the official road, all weeds.

Weeds as tall as a person can be seen everywhere, but they are all in clusters, not connected together.

To his surprise, although Cheng Kai said it was dangerous.

But the journey was uneventful.

On the first day, everyone rushed to a village.Zhuangzi's name is Fanjiazhuang, and he opened a roadside inn on the edge.

Cheng Kai and the owner of the store seemed to be quite familiar with each other, so they greeted each other, and a group of people stayed there for one night.

Early the next morning, we set off quickly before dawn.

In this way, one day's journey every day, to a village, and then stay in a hotel to rest, and then continue the cycle.

Wei He and Cheng Kai usually share a room with two beds. They sleep with their clothes on and by the window, so they can check the situation at any time, but there are no unexpected variables.

All was well.

The location of the route and even the rest points are arranged in advance.It can be said that Wei He completely lost the mystery of walking darts.

He also gradually became suspicious of the so-called dangerous outside the city.

The evening of the seventh day.

The convoy was about to reach its destination, in a barren hill, leaning against a big stone bridge.

Everyone lit a bonfire, put the dart carts and horses close to the bridgehead house, and formed a half circle.A group of people are resting in the house.

The mountain wind howled, and the swaying flames of the bonfire swayed the figures.

The big stone bridge stretches for hundreds of meters, and there is a guard house on both sides of the bridgehead.

This caretaker's room seems to be left over from the previous care of the bridge, but it has been abandoned for a long time.

And the bridge, which was once hundreds of meters long, is also dilapidated and in disrepair.

The bridgehead house is cylindrical, seven or eight meters high, and quite large in diameter, seventeen or eight meters long.

The inside was empty, and about twenty people crowded around the two fires, talking and laughing.

The cold wind blowing in from the two window openings couldn't stop the enthusiasm brought by the crowd.

Wei He sat in the corner, silently fiddled with the bonfire with thick branches to make it burn hotter.

The men to his left were bragging and beating in an unintelligible dialect.

One of the two people on the right is carving wood with a knife, and the other is dozing off against the wall.

Cheng Kai, as the head of the bodyguard, arranged for night whistle candidates outside, and followed him in.

He spoke a few words to the bodyguards around another campfire.Soon a few people got up and went outside.

Not long after, there was the faint sound of crackling fists and feet.

"It's started again, let's go and watch the excitement!"

The bodyguards suddenly recovered their spirits, got up and headed out the door.

Next to Wei He, who were still carving wood just now, the three dozed off also jumped up and headed out the door.

Several bodyguards bragging in dialect also stood up, and one of them laughed when he saw Wei Heyi was motionless with a dazed expression on his face.

"Let's go, Brother Wei has practiced Zheng'er Bajing Huishan Boxing, go out and practice, so that brothers can see their skills!"

He came over and pulled Weihe's sleeve.

"What?" Wei He was pulled up with a puzzled expression, and followed the crowd out of the bridgehead room.

Just behind the bridgehead house, there is an open space that seems to be used for cooking and chopping firewood.

The two bodyguards were facing each other, slowly turning in circles.

Someone held a torch to light them.Some people shouted and cheered one of them indiscriminately.

This place is close to the mountain wall, and there are bridgehead houses blocking it. The mountain wind is very small, and it happens to be a dead corner.

Seeing that Wei He had also come out, Cheng Kai also approached and said with a smile.

"This is the fun activity we do every dart trip."

"Fun activities?"

"That's right." Cheng Kai touched his mustache and said with a smile: "We are walking darts, no drinking, no gambling, and nothing to do except chatting along the way. Many times, we are not even allowed to speak loudly. Too long. If this time is long, it will inevitably be depressed."

He paused and continued: "So every time we are about to reach our destination, we will have an internal competition. Firstly, because drinking is not allowed, we can use the fight to refresh ourselves and increase the circulation of Qi and blood.

Second, it can be regarded as an internal location.Who is strong and who is weak, everyone should have an idea, so as not to run into trouble, and have no idea. "

Wei He immediately understood.

Having said so much, in fact, as long as this is a place of people, there is no escape from the distinction between high and low.

At this time, there was a loud shout in the field.

The two bodyguards had already collided suddenly.

A tall bodyguard master used an iron rod, and when he swung it, the stick was quite organized, attacking and defending with a certain degree of advance and retreat, and there was no chaos at all.

The other was short and stocky, with bare hands, and his punches were fast and fierce, and he fought vigorously.It seems that the power is also good.

After the two fought close to each other for a while, the one holding the stick was too close to use it, but the speed was not fast, and the distance could not be separated. Finally, he lost a move and was hit on the shoulder, defeating him.

"Bai Shengfeng's horizontal stick is not bad among the big guys. He had a record of knocking down five bastards with one stick in Nanshan Town before. I didn't expect to lose to Li Er."

Cheng Kai commented.

Wei He looked at it, and the fight between the two was average. Although they didn't know how strong they were, the speed of their shots and reaction speed were obviously at an ordinary level.

According to his estimation, he is a little better than ordinary people, but there are some tricks in fighting.

Then after Li Er won a game, he was still unsatisfied. He fought another game and still won.

Only at this time did he show his strengths. His stamina was extremely long, and he didn't even get tired after two rounds.

"How about it? Do you want to go up and try? Li Er's Nine Mountain Fist is not weak, even if it is me, I have to brace myself to win." Cheng Kai looked at Wei He with a smile.

"Okay." Wei He didn't say much, took off his cloak, stepped forward and entered the arena.

"Wei He." He cupped his hands and saluted.

"Li Er." The short and stout Li Er has a fierce appearance, and under the firelight, you can see a scar on his left eyebrow.The muscles on his body are one after another, and his appearance is very fierce.

After the two saluted, they stood still.

Wei He was observing carefully. Although he had watched two games before, he probably knew Li Er's way, but when he really played, he was not in a hurry.

Under the light of the torches.

On the contrary, Li Er was a little impatient. After winning two games in a row, his confidence was high and his momentum was in full swing. He just punched Wei He.

This punch is a straight punch, just a test.He used quick punches.

One-handed punching, one-handed defense, can change moves at any time.

If Wei He can't keep up with the speed, then he can keep up with the pursuit in one go, gaining an advantage and winning in one go.

If he can keep up, then he can also test the strength of the next move.

Wei He raised his fists, shielded his head, and flicked lightly.

puff.

When the two fists touched, Wei He suddenly felt his body stiffen. The opponent's fist was so powerful that even he, a person who had broken through once, felt his fist go numb just by pulling it away.

No wonder this Li Er was able to easily win two games in a row before.

But unfortunately...

Wei Hekong's left fist popped forward, and a similar straight fist hit the opponent's chest.

With a whimper, his fist turned into a white shadow, also a straight punch, this punch was more than a notch faster than Li Er's fist.

Just when Li Er was about to dodge to avoid it, unexpectedly the fist turned around and hit his shoulder.

Bang.

Li Er staggered back and lost a move.

Unconvinced, he continued on.

The two continued to fight, but after a few moves, he was punched in the abdomen again.

This time he saw clearly that the strength of the two was about the same, but the difference in the speed of their shots was too great.

Wei He basically stood still, not moving, just a few punches, and the battle was resolved.

"Awesome! I'm willing to bow down!" Li Er blushed, cupped his hands, and went down in despair.

The cheers and cheers around him gradually weakened. Everyone was not very familiar with Wei He, so naturally no one cheered him on.

"Anyone who wants to do it can do it. But before going up, think about it first. Li Er's Nine Mountain Fist is powerful, and he still loses. If you are weak, don't seek abuse." Cheng Kai said loudly.

"I'll come." A man stepped forward, holding a short knife in his hand. "Sorry, I'm good at weapons."

"It's okay." Wei He replied, if you go out to hang out, you will meet someone with a weapon sooner or later.

This man slashed twice and quickly slashed towards Wei He. Although he used the back of the knife to avoid accidental injury, the knife was still sharp and the appearance was amazing.

However, Wei He, whose vitality and blood surpassed these people, had an extraordinary reaction speed. He dodged a few times, stumbled, made the opponent lose his balance, and then punched him.

Immediately, the dagger was knocked out of his hand and fell to the ground.

This one won again.

Wei He didn't finish the fight, and continued to look around, intending to continue to increase his actual combat experience.

Although he didn't speak, everyone understood the meaning, and that was to continue.

Soon, two more people came on stage, and both were easily resolved by Wei He.

Given the difference in energy and blood, it was quite easy for him to deal with these ordinary bodyguards.

Only then did he deeply realize how much the realm of qi and blood can increase his strength.People are in slow motion.
