Beauty Jianghu

Chapter 38 Risking one’s life to save beauty

Yang Shucheng stood alone under the old tree, walking back and forth, asking questions. He was originally in love with Fang Xiaoli and was planning to travel around the world with her. However, he misunderstood the spy and caused Fang Yuxuan to lose more than a dozen good brothers. Although They do not blame themselves, but they cannot bear the condemnation of their conscience.

Yang Shucheng was disheartened and wanted to end his life, but he thought that his father's revenge had not been avenged, so he decided to go to the Qianlong Sword Sect in Taihang Mountain to find Tong Yuhui, the enemy who killed his father.

Yang Shucheng made up his mind and walked eastward.

In the afternoon of the third day, I was walking on the Guanzhong Avenue, not far from Tongguan. I saw yellow sand filling the sky, and the bare ground was thousands of miles away. Where could there be any human smoke? Unexpectedly, the prosperous land in Guanzhong, which Qin Shihuang used to become the emperor of the ages, is now suffering from famine every year, the victims are rebelling, and the smoke is everywhere.

I only saw a person running from a distance, followed by more than a dozen people chasing him. Running closer, the person in front was a woman with a dirty look on her face, about 27 or 27 years old, and the person following her was dressed as an officer or soldier.

The woman had blood stains on her body. Watch her run closer.

It turned out to be an acquaintance.

This woman is Gao Rong.

The wife of King Li Chuang is known as Mrs. Gao.

It turns out that in autumn, in the Taihang Mountains, Yang Shucheng followed Li Xing into King Li Chuang's tent and met Mrs. Gao once.

When Yang Shucheng saw Mrs. Gao running closer, he hurriedly shouted: "Mrs. Gao, run quickly. I'll stop you."

Yang Shucheng asked Mrs. Gao to pass and stood at the intersection with his sword drawn. Mrs. Gao didn't run away, she just stood behind him. The officers and soldiers quickly caught up and shouted: "Get out of the way quickly, don't you want to live?"

Yang Shucheng refused to get out of the way, and the officers and soldiers raised their swords to chop him, so they killed him in one place. Yang Shucheng was one against ten, and was not afraid. He wanted to give full play to the depressed energy of the past few days. The long sword in his hand was like a swimming dragon. He stabbed with the sword to the left and then stabbed with the sword again. He kept using his unique moves and soon killed more than a dozen people. round.

As time passed, Yang Shucheng couldn't handle the large number of people on the other side, and instead he was in danger.

In the midst of his busy schedule, Yang Shucheng shouted: "Madam, run quickly."

Mrs. Gao didn't run away, she just stood by the roadside and watched the battle. Yang Shucheng could not care about her. When he saw the knife coming, he could no longer be distracted and focused on dealing with the incoming enemy. When the officers and soldiers saw that he dared to resist, they also regarded him as a woman. They attacked without mercy and planned to kill him first and then capture the woman.

After all, Yang Shucheng was no match for the army. He had been injured in many places. If he continued to fight, his blood would be scattered in the dust.

Yang Shucheng was discouraged and thought: "That's it, that's all, I will die here today." Regardless of his life, he used the move "Kuafu Zhuri" and stabbed the opponent with a sword. When the opponent was dodging, he hurriedly shouted: " Run away."

While he was talking, he was stabbed again, and blood came out.

When Mrs. Gao saw this, she rushed forward with her sword drawn and fought with the officers and soldiers.

After more than a dozen rounds, I saw that Mrs. Gao was so good at swordsmanship that she killed the officers and soldiers and fled in all directions as if they were in a deserted place. After reading it, Yang Shucheng couldn't help but feel depressed, and thought to himself: "I originally said I wanted to save her, but I don't want to be saved by her."

I saw Mrs. Gao's sword flashing and stabbing an officer and soldier in the chest. The officer and soldier staggered and fell to the ground. When the other officer and soldier was stunned, Mrs. Gao took a quick step and stabbed with her sword again, stabbing him immediately. , the officer and soldier fell to the ground again.

Yang Shucheng was inspired and stabbed with his sword continuously. Although he could not stab the officers and soldiers, they were restrained. However, Mrs. Gao was scrupulous and was able to sprint vertically and horizontally, stabbing several officers and soldiers in succession.

The leader of the officers and soldiers originally wanted to capture the woman so that he could go back and collect the reward. But now not only could he not receive the reward, he was afraid that his life would be lost here, so he called out and the officers and soldiers followed him and fled away.

Mrs. Gao watched the officers and soldiers escape, then turned around and said to Yang Shucheng: "Brother Yang, thank you for your life-saving grace!" Although they had met once, Mrs. Gao still remembered him and knew that he had helped him. With a box of treasure, King Li Chuang was able to break through.

Yang Shucheng said sarcastically: "I'm sorry, my swordsmanship is very poor."

Mrs. Gao looked at the desolate surroundings and asked, "Brother Yang, how did you get here?"

Yang Shucheng mistakenly believed the spy and was feeling guilty. He dared not tell the truth again, so he lied to Mrs. Gao and said, "I am going to Guanzhong for fun."

Mrs. Gao said: "There has been a drought in Guanzhong for several years. The hungry people are everywhere. The officials are forcing the people to rebel. Several large armies have entered Shaanxi to wipe out the hungry people. Brother Yang, Guanzhong is now full of war and chaos. You are not here for fun. You are not telling the truth." "

Yang Shucheng saw that Mrs. Gao had a gentle temperament and heroic appearance, so he really couldn't lie to her, so he just bowed his head and said nothing.

Mrs. Gao had already guessed something by observing his words, so she asked, "Brother Yang, are you looking for Mr. Li Xingli?"

"Yeah." Yang Shucheng nodded.

Mrs. Gao said: "In the past few months, several armies from the imperial court entered Shaanxi to jointly suppress King Chuang's troops. Now the troops have broken up. Mr. Li followed King Chuang and retreated to Shangluo area to hide."

Yang Shucheng thought that the Shangluo Mountain Area was to the east of the Qinling Mountains. At that time, Song Min, the leader of the White Lotus Cult, had said to Xiangdong, but he didn't believe it after all. It turned out that she really had the ability to predict the unknown.

Yang Shucheng said: "No wonder I searched for him in the Qinling Mountains for nearly a month and there was no news."

Mrs. Gao said: "I want to go to northern Shaanxi to find the broken old troops and prepare for a comeback. I can't accompany Brother Yang. Brother Yang should be more cautious along the way. There are many spies from the government and army now, so don't trust others easily."

This touched upon Yang Shucheng's pain point. He couldn't help but blush. He held it back for a while and then said: "Master Fang Yuxuan is going to surrender to King Li Chuang. They are looking for King Chuang everywhere but can't find it. They are now heading west to Gansu."

Mrs. Gao said: "King Chuang invited Fang Daxia to join the uprising army several times, but he didn't agree. He didn't want him to come and defect to King Chuang when he was in the most critical moment. Fang Dashan is really a true hero and a true hero!"

Mrs. Gao looked at Yang Shucheng, who was thin and weak even though he had a long sword in his hand. Although he was brave, his swordsmanship was not superb. She was afraid that his life might be in danger along the way. She thought that he had donated a box of treasures to save King Li Chuang's troops. , this kind of kindness made me have to care about him, so he continued:

"Originally, Brother Yang saved my life, and I was supposed to escort Brother Yang for a while, but I have something important to attend to, and I can't delay it at all, so I will send you out of Tongguan to Henan, where the ground is calmer."

Yang Shucheng hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Mrs. Gao's matter is related to King Chuang's safety and cannot be delayed. Although I am alone, I am not afraid of a few thieves. Even if I can't win, I will run away very quickly. "

"Brother Yang is right, if you can't win, run away." Mrs. Gao looked to the east and said, "Tongguan is not far away. Let's walk together for a while. When we get there, it won't be too late for us to break up. Let's go." Then he raised his feet and walked towards the east.

Yang Shucheng saw her walking towards the way she came, which was the direction in which the officers and soldiers were retreating. Thinking that although she was a woman, she had a rare heroic spirit, he followed a few steps and walked eastward side by side with her.

Along the way, Yang Shucheng wanted to find someone to talk to about his recent depression, so he told the story of going to Guanzhong to look for Li Xing and mistaking the spy Gong Zhongjun, which led to the death of more than a dozen brothers.

Mrs. Gao comforted him and said, "I can't blame you for this. You just came out of the world and you don't know the dangers of people's hearts. Some people will do anything shameless for fame and fortune. But you have to be more cautious in the future and never do it again." It’s better to be fooled.”

After being persuaded by Mrs. Gao, Yang Shucheng felt a little better and couldn't help but raise his head.

The two of them walked eastward as they talked. There was not even a soul along the way, and everything was desolate. Even if you encountered a village, it was dilapidated and sparsely populated.

The next day, I walked for more than an hour. At this time, the plain has been exhausted, and there are more and more mountains on both sides. After walking for a while, the mountains have become towering and steep. Yang Shucheng said:

"Mrs. Gao has something important going on, so I'll cross Tongguan on the mountain road. I don't expect there will be any danger."

Mrs. Gao looked at Tongguan and said, "This is the most difficult time for King Chuang. I can't see you off. Brother Yang, take care of yourself along the way. We will meet again in the future."

The two raised their hands to say goodbye, and Yang Shucheng stood on the road, watching Mrs. Gao take long strides and walk all the way west, and soon disappeared on the long journey to the west.

When Yang Shucheng saw that Mrs. Gao had left, he couldn't help but feel sad. Mrs. Gao's heroic appearance could not be removed from his mind.

Yang Shuguo actually walked eastward along the mountain path.

On this day, I walked to the place where the Wei River flows into the Yellow River and stood on a high mountain. I saw the rolling water of the Yellow River going all the way east. It was so majestic and unstoppable. It was really a grand spectacle in the world, and I couldn't help but feel heroic. I am so angry, thinking about the majesty of the country, how many heroes have emerged, and how many great achievements have been made.

Yang Shucheng looked north. On the Yellow River, there were the Hukou Falls and the wonders of carps leaping over the Dragon Gate. He wanted to go for a tour. But just as he was about to take a step, he thought that his ability was low and his future might be dangerous. So he became discouraged and decided to go to the city. Go east to the Taihang Mountains to look for Tong Yuhui and avenge the murder of his father.

Yang Shucheng walked eastward, and when he reached the hillside, he saw a river temple. Due to the war, the temple had been abandoned. Seeing the setting sun, he decided to spend the night in the temple before leaving tomorrow morning.

Yang Shucheng was lying in the river temple, listening to the surging river all night long, but he couldn't sleep, so he simply got up and sat on the threshold of the temple, looking at the moonlight under the mountain, the rolling Yellow River, rolling waves, all the way to the east flow away.

At this time, I saw a figure running up the mountain on the winding mountain road.
