Northern River Sword

Xie Beihan was poisoned during the day and his body was weak, so he couldn't go with his father, so he stopped in an inn to rest in the evening.He knew about Xie Biao's return to Qiujiazhuang to trap and kill Qiu Guangcheng. He knew that Qiu Guangcheng's swordsmanship was superb, and even if his father brought someone to ambush him, he might not be his opponent.He fidgeted and simply took people to see the situation.

The heavy night has not yet receded, Xie Beihan rushed to the mass grave, the sparkling will-o'-the-wisps fluttered in the field, and the bleak wind gusts made people feel creepy.He didn't dare to approach at first, and after waiting for a while, he heard that there was no sound of fighting inside, so he mustered up his courage and led someone to lean closer cautiously.

After walking a few steps, someone suddenly screamed loudly.Everyone was startled, Xie Beihan drew his sword and said, "What's going on!"

The man trembled and said: "I stepped on someone... a dead person! It's ours!"

Xie Beihan boldly stepped forward and took a look. He was lying on the ground alone with a wound on his neck, and he was utterly dead.This person is indeed a helper brought by Xie Biao.Xie Beihan's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, "These people are all dead, what happened to father?"

At this moment, he forgot his fear, stood up, strode forward, and shouted loudly: "Father———!"

All the people followed Xie Beihan with their lamps, shining everywhere.Xie Beihan suddenly heard a faint voice in front of him, he ran forward and saw Xie Biao lying on the ground with wounds all over his body, his breath was already very weak.Everyone rushed forward and shouted, "Master, are you alright, master?"

Seeing that his father was seriously injured, Xie Beihan burst into tears immediately, and said in a panic, "Father, I'm here to save you. You must hold on!" He threw the lantern, helped Xie Biao up, and put his palm against him The vest, sending a burst of true energy over.

Xie Biao got a little sober after receiving his true energy, and murmured: "Go quickly, don't delay here... Qiu Guangcheng has already mastered the Shaoyang swordsmanship, he will not let you go, go quickly."

Xie Beihan said: "He hurt you?"

Xie Biao nodded and said hoarsely, "It's him...it's him..."

He was already at the end of his strength, and he passed out after trying his best to say a few words.Xie Beihan quickly supported his father, put him on the horse, and was about to leave.

At this time, the sound of horseshoes behind him suddenly sounded, and someone shouted: "There is a fire over there, let's go over and have a look!"

Xie Beihan felt that his whole body was completely cold, and thought: "Qiu Guangcheng brought someone to kill me! Run away, run away!" Although he thought so in his heart, his legs were weak and he couldn't move.In desperation, he asked everyone to form a circle, protecting himself in the middle, and said: "Everyone go up together, we will fight them!"

Xue Hongliao, Qiu Guangcheng and others rushed to the front and got off their horses.Everyone was very surprised when they saw Xie Beihan's terrified appearance.Xue Hongliu stepped forward and said, "Young Master Xie, why are you here? What's the matter?"

Xie Beihan's eyes were wide open, trembling all over, he pointed his sword at her, and said loudly: "Don't come here, don't come here, don't come here, don't let anyone try to kill me!" , looking very panicked, as if already crazy.

Xue Hongliao saw that Xie Biao on the horse's back was motionless, covered in blood, as if he had been seriously injured.Seeing that there were corpses all over the ground, it was obvious that there had been a fierce fight just now.Qiu Guangcheng came forward, Xie Beihan was most afraid of him, hissed: "Don't come here! Stop quickly, I'm going to attack!"

Qiu Guangcheng didn't take his threats to heart at all.Xie Beihan's nerves stretched to the extreme, he yelled, and stabbed at him with his sword.Qiu Guangcheng came to him in a flash, flicked his left hand on his numb tendon, stroked along his lower arm, and snatched the sword lightly and delicately.

Qiu Guangcheng held Xie Beihan in his arms like an iron band on his left arm.Xie Beihan was trembling for a moment, but Qiu Guangcheng was so strong that he couldn't break free no matter what.

In desperation, Xie Beihan kicked his legs like a child, and shouted loudly: "What are you doing, let me go! What are you all doing, come and save me!" He didn't know whether to deal with Qiu Guangcheng with a weapon.

Xue Hongliao said loudly: "Everyone is our own, quickly put down your weapons! What happened, why did so many people die?"

Xie Beihan went hysterical for a while, and then began to be afraid again, trembling in Qiu Guangcheng's arms, not even daring to take a breath.

Qiu Guangcheng seemed to be very distressed, and sighed: "This child is frightened, don't be afraid, everyone is here to save you. Tell Uncle Qiu carefully, what happened?"

Xie Beihan is controlled by others, the gentler Qiu Guangcheng's attitude is, the more afraid he is.He wanted to scream, cry, and ask his father for help, but Xie Biao couldn't help him now.Xie Beihan felt that Qiu Guangcheng's arm exerted a slight force, and the huge force made his ribs hurt and made him unable to breathe.Xie Beihan felt the silent threat that if he made a mistake, he would die in the hands of Qiu Guangcheng immediately.

Qiu Guangcheng said softly: "My good boy, don't be afraid. Did the assassin find you because you were alone? Everyone came here and was attacked by the assassin. These people were all killed by the assassin, right?"

Xie Beihan was speechless, listening to him tempting himself to say so, wanting to free himself from fear and threats, so he nodded.

Xue Hongliu stepped forward to check Xie Biao's condition, and found that although his breathing and pulse were weak, he could still be saved.She said: "Don't be in a hurry, let's find a doctor for Fourth Uncle Xie. His condition is very bad and he must be treated immediately."

Qiu Guang thought that Xie Biao was dead, but he didn't expect that he was still breathing, and his face suddenly looked a little ugly.Xie Beihan was afraid that he would turn his back on him and kill himself and his father on the spot, so he hurriedly said: "Helper Master Xue is right, hurry... hurry and save my father!"

Qiu Guangcheng smiled slowly and said, "That's right, let's go back to Qiujiazhuang. There are many valuable medicinal materials in the village. I'll send someone to invite a famous doctor to cure Brother Xie."

When Xie Beihan heard that he was going back to Qiujiazhuang again, he felt a bucket of ice water poured over his head, and couldn't help shivering.He knew in his heart that he must not go, otherwise he would definitely be slaughtered by Qiu Guangcheng.

He said: "No, I won't go...I won't go! I want to take my dad home!"

Qiu Guangcheng said: "What nonsense are you talking about. Your father is so injured, how can he travel a long distance! Go back with uncle obediently, and I will definitely keep you father and son safe."

Qiu Guangcheng's attitude towards him was very loving, but Xie Beihan became more and more frightened.Frightened by Qiu Guangcheng's power, his legs trembled, his throat tightened, and he didn't dare to speak any more.After a moment of hesitation, he was already pushed onto the horse by the crowd, surrounded by the front and back, and carried him to Qiujiazhuang.

When everyone returned to the villa, the east was already pale.He Ruying was in charge of the unified dispatch at the villa, and when he heard that everyone had returned, he took them out to greet them.Seeing that Xie Biao was seriously injured, he was taken aback and asked, "What's going on?"

Qiu Guangcheng said: "Please ask the doctor to treat his injury first, and I will tell you the rest slowly."

He sent someone to find the doctor, and Xie Beihan stood by the bed, his eyes were staring, and his whole body trembled from time to time.He was very panicked, he was afraid of death, terribly afraid, staying in Qiujiazhuang was like going to jail.He was afraid that his father would die like this. He knew that his mud would not be able to support the wall. Without Xie Biao, he would not be able to think of a good death.

Everyone's eyes fell on him, and they all blamed him, as if they felt that the son of the dignified Xie family should not be so pusty.Xie Beihan couldn't take care of this much anymore. He was afraid of Qiu Guangcheng from the bottom of his heart, not because he was worried that Qiu Guangcheng would tell the story of Xie's family laying an ambush at the mass grave late at night-they were grasshoppers tied to a rope in this matter. Well, Qiu Guangcheng would never mention it, even the matter of the poisoning of Xie's family yesterday.But Qiu Guangcheng had a lot of ways to play with him. Without his father's protection, Xie Beihan realized how powerful the enemy was.It was easier for Qiu Guangcheng to kill him than to crush an ant. Now that he was living in the hands of others, how could he not be afraid.

After seeing the condition, the doctor was very worried, and said: "Fourth Master Xie suffered serious injuries in many places, which is very dangerous. With my medical skills, I can only save his life for ten days if I try my best."

Qiu Guangcheng said: "Then please take care of Fourth Master Xie, sir. I will find a way in the next few days and find another famous doctor to treat him."

He Ruying said: "People say that the Southern Xu and the Northern Zhou, the two doctors are equally famous masters of rejuvenation. I have some friendship with Mr. Zhou Fuchun in the north, so I will write a letter and send someone to invite him to save my fourth brother's life."

Xue Hongliu and others said it was very good, He Ruying immediately wrote a letter and sent someone to Jinan Mansion, asking Zhou Fuchun to come and save them.

Qiu Guangcheng told He Ruying what happened, and He Ruying was a little annoyed, and said: "The assassin is too rampant... If the fourth brother hadn't acted out of his temper yesterday and insisted on leaving, he wouldn't have been intercepted and killed by the assassin. "

Xue Hongliao said: "The assassin killed so many people and fought with Fourth Uncle Xie again, so he must have been injured too. He can't escape far, we must immediately search for his whereabouts nearby, and we can't let the tiger go back to the mountain!"

He Ruying said: "That's right, I'll just order a few men and horses, and everyone will search day and night, and dig three feet to find the assassin."

Xie Beihan was submissive, and couldn't help shivering after hearing He Ruying's words.He Ruying comforted him: "Beihan, take good care of your father. You don't have to participate in the hunt for assassins these days."

Xie Beihan was so overwhelmed by fear that he couldn't even give up his father at the critical moment of life and death. He thought to himself: "If I don't run away quickly, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive tonight, but not tomorrow night. After all, my father's appearance is a shame. If you don’t leave, it’s better to escape one by one!”

He hurriedly said: "Uncle He, I have met that assassin face to face, and I remember his physical characteristics. I will also go with you to hunt him down!"

Knowing that he wanted to take the opportunity to escape, Qiu Guangcheng stood between him and He Ruying, and said coldly: "You were frightened at night, and now you need to rest, and leave other things to others."

Xie Beihan shuddered, forced by Qiu Guangcheng's cold gaze, and dared not speak.

Qiu Guangcheng sent people to take Xie Beihan to rest, and sent eight people to protect him, two people at the door, two people at the back of the house and two people under the window, and two people outside the moon cave in the east chamber.Everyone agreed to all orders, but Xie Beihan was not allowed to leave the room for half a step. It was not so much protection as surveillance.
