Return the Sword

In the boundless desert, under the frosty night, you can vaguely see a person wearing a short robe, with his hands behind his back, and every time he takes a step, his toes will kick the sand and he will hum softly.

There were bloodstains on his body that hadn't dried up. Logically speaking, he should be a vicious person, but the moonlight shone on his face, his brows were like distant mountain ridges, and his eyes were very clear and bright, so he didn't look like a bad person.The young man felt that something was kicked by his toes, and he looked down at a dead wood branch. The dead wood branch was very thin, about half the length of his palm, and less than half the width of his little finger. It just happened to be like this, so he got his interest. He originally stopped and stopped along the way, but with this dead wood branch, his speed on the road was unusually fast.

Zhao Ke called him Yang Wu, so he must be Yang Wu.

After the last battle of Wuwei, although Zhao Ke also praised him for his bravery in battle, Yang Wu killed the guard as soon as he entered the city. It took a lot of time for the headquarters to collect the local household registration. There are penalties.Not to be a striker, this order was issued, but it made Yang Wu scratch his head for a long time. He has little qualifications, if he can't make military exploits early, there will be no place for him in the future.

Shi Jian's real name is not Shi Jian, it's a title chosen by Mr. Lang, not to mention people around him, even Yang Wu himself can't bear this kind of title, he needs to make another contribution, then The bigger the credit, the better. Let the gentleman give him a name, so as not to see Shi Jian again, I can only make Shi Jian a joke, and then run away in despair...Yang Wu clenched his right fist and waved his fist to the sky. It was rushing towards Nayang Pass.

It has been half a month since Yangguan was besieged. I didn't know the situation of Wuwei before. At that time, I heard that Wuwei was looted by the Yuezhi people and then recovered by Dunhuang. The speed surprised the surrounding cities, but that's all. That's all, after all, it's none of your business.But in a few days, when the Dunhuang armored soldiers approached the city, Yangguan was caught off guard, so they could only hide in that natural barrier, hoping that the eighteen messengers sent out could borrow reinforcements as soon as possible, and counterattack at that time , and you can breathe out a sigh of relief, but you don't know that this wait is five days.

During the period, I thought about whether they were stopped by the besieged army, and I had some hope, but I didn't return for five days, and I was in a state of anxiety. It is impossible for Jiuquan and Yumen not to borrow troops.No matter if the messenger was beheaded, the news could not be spread, or Jiuquan and Yumen might be captured, leaving him alone.Neither possibility is what Yang Guan wants to see.Before there is no way, if you want to pin your hope, you can only pin the former one.So when I saw a messenger chased by Dunhuang soldiers, although there were not many troops in the city, Yangguan still forcibly opened the door and let the soldier enter the city. The messenger brought the news that the reinforcements were coming, and the people in the city I am very happy, but at the border, the traveling merchant also mentioned the situation of Wuwei's broken city. The secret letter brought by the messenger has been specially processed. A letter must be coded. Although the letter is full of handwriting, The key words are just a few words, the first line is the ninth from the left, the first from the right, the second line is the third from the left, the seventh from the right, the third line is the second from the left, the fourth from the right, the fourth line Sixth from the left, eighth from the right.

The so-called Jiugong grid in "Hetu Luoshu" is explained here separately.

After intending to get close, as expected, the messenger didn't know the secret language, since he was pretending, he just killed him, and the Yangguan didn't dare to open the door again when he saw the messenger who was chased and killed by Dunhuang soldiers.This is the reason why one is afraid of well ropes after being bitten by a snake for ten years.Even if he knew that this might stop the real messenger from outside the city, he was afraid that Dunhuang would always use this move. Every time he opened the door, Yangguan was equivalent to giving up his advantage of defending the city to face Dunhuang head-on. Not as good as people, how can we win this battle?In vain is only at the expense of others.

Yangguan is hard to tell.

The city wall is not high, but the guards who can't bear to turn back and forth are hurrying and patrolling closely.Yang Wu had just climbed onto the city wall and was discovered, but after he was captured, his face still had a calm look on his face. The night watchman was in his prime and had some knowledge. He asked Yang Wu: "Who are you?" who?"

Yang Wu replied: "I came from the Central Plains, and I am also going to the Central Plains. I am a guest."

The general didn't understand what he meant, now is the time when Yangguan is in danger, he should kill this person, but looking at his face, he is afraid that he is a noble son who is studying abroad, and seeing the blood on Yang Wu's body, he still asks more questions He said, "Where did the blood on your body come from?"

Yang Wuxiao said: "The blood doesn't come from me, of course it comes from someone else, my lord, you're asking this knowingly."

"Who the hell are you?" The general felt that the young man in front of him was going around in circles with himself. This feeling was not very good. He was eager to end this conversation, so he turned his head and said to a soldier: "The captain should have not yet Sleep, I don't need to interrogate, so I have to trouble you."

Captain Lieutenant is the biggest official in Yiguan Pass, this general shouldn't speak so casually, but in wartime, whoever has more people under his command, the weight of his words is enough for people to weigh, let alone this general He has always been casual, and the soldier was not surprised when he said these words. He asked someone to use a big shackle to lock Yang Wu, and the three surrounded Yang Wu in the middle, and went all the way down. The captain's mansion has gone.

The captain hadn't slept, he had studied Confucianism and guarded officials for several years, and he didn't lack a single thing in his mind. After hearing what happened to Yang Wu, he felt that Yang Wu was simple, he didn't delay, which made people feel depressed. Staying at Yang Wu, he circled around Yang Wu a few times, and the beginning was still the same sentence that the general asked Yang Wu earlier: "Who are you?"

Yang Wu sneered: "My lord, I have already asked this question before."

The captain frowned, waiting to ask again.But even if someone stepped on Yang Wu's calf, Yang Wu stood up abruptly under the weight of two people, and said: "My master once told me that if the world is peaceful, I can be a small citizen." In my life, if the world is in turmoil, I will be a wealthy family member, and my life will be safe, but if the situation of the world is not yet clear, I will become a reckless man, and no one will control me, then I will not need to worry about it. Before I entered this Yangguan, I passed by a mountain stronghold, there were only dozens of bandits among them, and there was a scholar with me, I was short of money, he was deadly, five taels of silver per person, my lord, I earned more than a hundred taels of silver , Tell me, is it a loss or not?"

He didn't understand what Yang Wu said, but it didn't prevent the captain from understanding Yang Wu's identity. The captain was a little happy: "Are you a killer?"

Yang Wu shook his head: "No."

The captain's face was a little stiff: "No?"

"Using money to do things, the goods and the money are paid, my lord, you haven't given me the money yet." Yang Wu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.

The captain took two steps back, feeling a little cold in his heart: "Do you know who I want you to kill?"

"I don't know."

"then you……"

"It seems that your lord is not aware of the rules of my way. With my skill, I can sell three thousand silver coins. It doesn't matter if it's high or not. It doesn't matter who you want to kill. There is only an increase in the price, but there is no decrease in the price." Yang Wu laughed out loud.

The captain wanted to say the name of the Dunhuang military general, but he didn't know it, so he had to say Wei Wan's name, and he didn't know if the assassin would have time to go back and forth, but it was better than nothing.

After Yang Wu heard this, he said, "Your Excellency has good eyes." Then although his hands were still locked, he bent his fingers and made a gesture: "Since it is that person, it is natural to ask for this price."

Five fingers... The captain was dubious: "5000 taels?"

"Wrong, it's 5 taels." Yang Wuliang lit his little white teeth.

The captain took a deep breath: "I don't have that much money."

"No?" Yang Wu frowned, with a murderous look, he opened the wooden shackle with both hands, pulled out a soldier's saber, and slanted to the right, chopping the captain to the ground: "No money, you What are you talking about with me?"

The captain was dying, and the incident happened suddenly. Several soldiers realized that they drew their sabers to kill them. Yang Wu kicked one, and pressed down the tip of the simple saber in his hand. He took a blow, and turned his hand to kill again. He picked up one, held his head in one hand, and kicked it away again. The other remaining soldier fought with each other. Yang Wu threw his knife, jumped onto the beam of the roof, and broke through the tiles, leaving only Qingyue smiling. Voice: "You are the one who kills, but it has nothing to do with me."

The blood on his body was still wet, and a few new bloodstains were added. Yang Wu went up to the tower, as if the pursuers behind him didn't exist. ?”

"Don't you even ask me who I am?" Yang Wu snatched the general's saber and swung it down: "I am here to kill you."

Yangguan City is seven ren high, Yang Wugang killed this general, and then jumped down, very much like the lone bird that just learned to fly in spring, with no skills, when it finally landed, it rolled a few times on the ground, and it didn't matter. Regardless of his injuries, he pressed against the foot of the wall and hid in the darkness before he took a breath for a while.

Yang Wu was undoubtedly excited when he left the barracks and succeeded so easily, he was eager to go back and report the good news to Zhao Ke.

Heaven will see.The flags in the camp could be seen faintly, Zhao Ke was not seen for a few days, but this time he was caught straight, Yang Wuzhi saw Zhao Ke's figure from a distance, and felt a little guilty for no reason, but Zhao Ke had long been I found him, the person I cultivated, he didn't listen to his footsteps, and the tip of his nose seemed to be floating with his smell, it was impossible not to distinguish it.

Zhao Ke didn't look at Yang Wu, he just said: "You kid is lucky."

Isn't it good?Yang Wu also didn't feel that this great achievement was all due to him, but Zhao Ke actually knew what he was going to do, so he had to praise himself a few times, but the smile on his face was not yet frozen...

"Your temperament is too good at making decisions, you don't want to stay in this army anymore, go back and reflect..."

Yang Wu knew what it meant to go back, and went back to Dunhuang, but he hadn't done any meritorious service yet, so he opened his mouth to say something more. At this moment, Zhao Ke's hand fell on his shoulder, and said: "From now on, you will be rewarded." Serving the sword."
