Northern River Sword

He Ruying has been trapped in the valley for half a day. The valley is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the only exit is in the north.After he was driven into this valley by the beggar gang, he tried to break out of the siege several times, but Lin Chuan and Elder Huo led people to guard the valley entrance and shot arrows at the entrance of the valley, so that he failed.

There are some vegetation in the valley, and there is a small stream in the valley, gurgling from the mountain to the bottom of the valley.

Su Yi and Qin Xiao walked into the valley side by side.Su Yi clenched the long sword tightly, paying attention to the movements around him.There are some footprints on the wet soil by the river, extending to the depths of the valley.The two walked for a stick of incense, and the footprints disappeared.Qin Xiao said: "Where are people?"

The two stood at the bottom of the empty valley, the wind blew, the grass rustled, and the murderous intent was hidden.

The wind hadn't stopped yet, and suddenly I heard the sound of swords being unsheathed, and the flapping of clothes.

A white light flashed across, and Su Yi and Qin Xiao flashed to both sides.Holding a long sword in his hand, He Ruying jumped out of the vegetation.He failed in the sneak attack, so he stabbed Su Yi with his sword.Su Yi drew out his long sword and used Shaoyang swordsmanship to meet him.Qin Xiao also drew his sword out of its sheath, using the Yanbo sword technique taught by his mother to attack He Ruying.

This set of Yanbo swordsmanship was originally created by Qin Yanbo's missing husband, and the sword moves in it echoed the Shaoyang swordsmanship and complemented each other.At this time, the two used two sets of sword techniques respectively, and the power was unstoppable.

He Ruying's martial arts attainments are very profound, and at this moment, he can't compete with the two of them.He Ruying raised his sword and attacked the two of them, Qin Xiao and Su Yi's swords combined, Su Yi's sword was like a rainbow, fast and fierce; Qin Xiao's swordsmanship was light, light and varied.The two swords came out together, and as the sword light whizzed, He Ruying's chest was pierced by two swords at the same time.

The two drew their swords, and He Ruying fell to the ground with blood foaming from his mouth.He covered the wound with one hand, and his other hand was like a dead branch, struggling to grab the two of them, his throat gurgling.

Su Yi said: "The grievances between us are understood. If your son He Diming doesn't commit serious crimes, we won't embarrass him. You can rest assured."

He Ruying finally stopped struggling and stopped breathing.His expression was resentful and ferocious, as if he would not be reconciled to death.

Su Yi lifted He Ruying's head, and the two walked out of the valley.

The evening breeze was gentle, and the beggar gang and others cheered loudly when they saw the two of them coming out safely.

Su Yi said: "We have already taken the enemy's head. When I pay homage to my father Meng Shuhe, I will send the enemy's head to the Beggars' Gang to comfort the spirit of the old leader Xue and Master!"

Elder Huo and the others agreed, and took them back to Luoyang first.Su Yi and Qin Xiao went home to pay homage to their father, and Qin Yanbo finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish for many years, feeling very comforted in his heart.

Xue Hongliu recovered from his injuries, and together with Su Yi, he went to Luoyang with the head of his enemy.Qiao'er also went back to pay homage to Old Leader Xue and Elder Su.Qin Xiao brought two altars of good wine and went to visit Qiu Yuhua's grave.Thinking of that kind and gentle girl, Su Yi felt a little melancholy, so he went to visit her together.

Qin Xiao wiped the dust off the tombstone and poured wine on the grave.He sat in front of the stele and whispered softly, as if he had a lot to say to that agile girl.

Su Yi and the others were afraid of disturbing him, so they stood under a big tree not far away and waited.After a long time, Qin Xiao stood up and was about to leave while leading the horse.

Su Yi quickly shouted: "Wait, where are you going?"

Qin Xiao said: "The ends of the earth, just walk around."

Su Yi remembered that he had said such things before, and now that it was time to say goodbye, he couldn't help but still be reluctant.

Qin Xiao smiled and said: "I used to live for hatred, but now I can finally live for myself. I want to travel everywhere, at home and abroad, and wherever I go, it counts."

Su Yi said: "My parents are not traveling far away, when are you going to come back?"

Qin Xiao patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'll leave it to you, Mother. I'll go there for three or two years, and I'll come back when I'm tired of seeing it."

Su Yi still wanted to talk, but suddenly he saw dozens of people riding horses coming on the road, and one of them shouted: "Several knights, please wait a moment, we have something to say!"

When a group of people approached, rolled off their saddles and got off their horses, one of them looked at Su Yi and then at Qin Xiao with a very surprised expression.

Su Yi looked at his clothes and said, "Are you from Dali?"

The man was very polite, and said with a smile: "Yes. I am an imperial envoy of His Majesty the Emperor of Dali, and I came back to the Central Plains to find a young master Qin."

Su Yi said: "Which Mr. Qin are you looking for? What are you looking for?"

The imperial envoy said: "Your Majesty is recruiting relatives for the princess' martial arts competition, and asked the officials and others to come and find Mr. Qin Xiao from the General's Mansion to fight. Princess Ruyi said that her son-in-law is only Mr. Qin. If Mr. Qin doesn't go, a hundred of them will come. She also asked someone to call out!"

Su Yi said with a smile: "Since it's a martial arts competition to recruit relatives, isn't it too early to be called a son-in-law?"

The imperial envoy said: "Princess Ruyi said that she has already accepted Mr. Qin's family heirloom jade pendant, and made a lifelong commitment with him. This time, he is the only one who will not marry."

Qin Xiao pulled Su Yi away and said in a low voice, "What jade pendant?"

Su Yi remembered that his jade pendant was snatched away by Duan Ruyi, and felt deeply troubled for Qin Xiao, and said with shame: "Mother gave it to me. She took it away after seeing it."

Qin Xiao nodded, smiled and said, "Since you gave it to me, then you can settle this matter."

Su Yi panicked, and said: "How can I do that! This is your business, don't leave it to me!"

Qin Xiao said seriously: "Although the princess is very good, I haven't traveled the world to my heart's content, so how can I just fall into the land of tenderness!"

The imperial envoy waited for a long time, but the two of them whispered endlessly.The imperial envoy shook off the picture and looked at it carefully, and suddenly said: "You two have exactly the same birth, which one is the son-in-law?"

Qin Xiao and Su Yi said at the same time: "It's him."

The imperial envoy was startled, Su Yi said angrily: "Don't mess around!"

Qin Xiao smiled and said, "It was you in the first place, why don't you dare to admit it?"

Qin Xiao said to the imperial envoy: "This son is a handsome man with a magnificent appearance, so he is the right one! If you two take him back, the princess will definitely reward you a lot!"

As he spoke, he got on his horse and galloped away with a whip.Su Yi was about to go crazy, and said repeatedly: "It's not me, how could it be me! You guys chase him quickly, don't let him go!"

Seeing that Qin Xiao had gone far away, several guards were afraid that Su Yi would also run away, so they hurriedly asked, "What should I do?"

The imperial envoy said: "It doesn't matter, let's catch this young master first!"

Everyone gathered around and grabbed him with all their might.Su Yi was stuffed into the carriage by a group of people, struggling with dancing and shouting loudly: "It's not me! Help!"

Qiaoer said anxiously: "Let go of him quickly, he is not your princess' son-in-law, he is mine!"

The imperial envoy made a bow to Qiao'er, and said politely: "We can't find the son-in-law, so we have to raise our heads to see His Majesty and the princess. That one has already run away, we have to invite one to go to the post, please forgive me .”

Qiaoer couldn't stop a group of big men, and watched Su Yi being taken away.She stomped her feet anxiously, and said in her heart: "He is my man in life, and my ghost in death. If the princess touches him, it will be a big disaster!"

She begged Xue Hongliao: "Sister Xue, help me quickly, don't let him be taken away!"

Xue Hongliao smiled and said: "Being the son-in-law of Dali Kingdom is a good thing. He is not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?"

Qiao'er blushed and said: "I want to marry him myself, how can he be the son-in-law of Dali Kingdom!"

Seeing the group of people driving away in the carriage, Xue Hongliao said with a smile: "Well, after all, he used to be a member of my beggar gang. For your sake, I will take care of this business."

In the sound of her words, she pulled Qiao'er on the horse, rode in the dust and smoke, and chased after her with a whip.
