Alternative Jianghu Adventures

Xia Yun didn't deliberately lower his voice, the thief was stunned because he didn't expect such a young girl to disturb the situation, but Ding Fan was a little stunned, he blurted out: "Xiao Xia?"

Xia Yun didn't reply to him.

It's just that Ding Fan quickly realized that now is not the time to reminisce about the old days, and his faint speculation before was confirmed. He immediately put away the cane whip, stood on the same side as Xia Yun, and took the lead in showing his goodwill.

Xia Yun stared at the bandit leader, the Miao Dao in his hand never loosened.

The bodyguard uniforms he wore before were changed in the organ city. Even though the two had met each other during the robbing of the bodyguards, it was only for a moment after all. Xia Yun was inevitably stained with mud in the scuffle. Putting on the blindfold, the thief leader really didn't recognize the connection between the Muzhi in front of him and the little escort before him.

But if he really recognizes it, Mu Zhi's fame can be said to be ruined overnight.

The man in the Miao suit saw the sudden change in the situation, and couldn't tell whether the person who came was an enemy or a friend. The mother-child shuttle was about to get out, but the thief leader raised his hand to stop him——

He stared at Xia Yun for a long time, as if trying to figure out the truth of what Xia Yun just said.

After a long time, the Mo Dao in his hand suddenly returned to its sheath, making an inaudible clicking sound, and the voice was low and deep: "I have admired your name for a long time, but I don't know why Shen Yuan Pavilion's top ranking is here. What's the matter?"

His voice resounded in the mist, and along with the gurgling brook, he knocked out the doubts in the hearts of everyone present.

Two days later.

A row of fast maroon horses stepped on the gravel of the mountain road and galloped down the mountain all the way.

You can already see houses smoking along the road.In front of the thatched hut, there are still calamus and wormwood hung on the Dragon Boat Festival, and the plump plums are piled up by the roadside in bamboo baskets by the owner, and flocks of poultry are trying to pry into the baskets with their little steps. , but because the rim of the basket was too high, I tried several times and failed to get the mouth. An unsteady one threw a basket of bright red chicken blood plums on the road.

Poultry: "..."

Lying on the eaves, he looked coldly at the chaotic mottled domestic cats below. He probably felt that these idiots were nothing to look at, so he couldn't help but yawned. Just as he was about to close his eyes and take a nap, there was a paw under his paw. The ground trembled.

At this time, the row of red horseshoes rushed over, and immediately crushed the plums that had rolled onto the right path. The red juice of the plums scattered, and a group of chickens, ducks and geese were fluttered and fled away.

——It's just a pity for the basket of plums that fell from heaven without reason.

Soon, people and horses passed through several such scattered villages. After a long time of running around, a group of people finally tightened their reins in front of the cliff in front of them.

"Crossing the chain bridge is Feilong Village." The man in Miao costume pointed out, "My brother should still be patrolling the mountain now, and he should be back when we arrive at the village."

The second in command of the Long family is named Long Zhengwen, and he is the younger brother of the current head of the Long family, Long Zhengwu.The two brothers had a deep relationship since childhood, regardless of you and me. Later, almost the entire family of the Long family was beheaded by Lu Kun, and the two even vowed to kill the entire family of Lu Kun.After years of painstaking efforts, he finally gained a firm foothold in southern Xinjiang, and gradually came into contact with the young emperor in the court.

This time, Long Zhengwen took the lead to take General Lantian's men to the organ city to get medicine. Unexpectedly, he was intercepted by Xia Yun on the way. After careful questioning, he turned out to be a friendly army from the imperial court, and there were only a few transporters left. The retainers were confidantes, and he and the lieutenant general of the Lan family army immediately returned to Longjiazhai with Xia Yun and others.

"This thing deserves to be called a bridge?" Xia Yun stared at the single iron cable that was no thicker than his wrist hanging on the two hills, his voice inevitably raised a few degrees, with a look of disbelief.

This is like a small iron chain, there is not even a wooden board to step on, at most it is an "iron rope"!

"The mountains in southern Xinjiang are high and dangerous, and there are so many dangerous rocks and rocks like this. People in the mountains have long been used to taking dangerous paths. This is just a simple defense against ordinary outsiders who are ignorant."

The thieves caught a glimpse of Xia Yun's fussy expression before, and felt that the legendary Muzhi was too untrue. If it wasn't for the previous fight that really made him aware of the difficulty, he would definitely not have looked at the one in front of him. The young girl is associated with the long-legged "silent" name.

"The people who really want to find the Longjiazhai are mostly people who have lived here for generations or come in from outside with martial arts skills. Naturally, they are not afraid of this kind of iron chain."

Should it be said that rumors are deceiving people, or is this city mansion deep enough?

"Vice General Sha, who are you trying to squeeze out with your sly talk?" Xia Yun rolled her eyes angrily. She hadn't paid attention to this lieutenant named Sha Xianren on the way.

Who told this guy to appear on the stage with such a bad image that he turned into a bandit to rob, even if Long Zhengwen's explanation for this was: "Because General Lantian led a group of remnants to collect all the bandits wandering in the Valley of the Dead, plus Since the contact with the imperial court was cut off, even if Longjiazhai wanted to help, he couldn’t take care of the food for such a large army, so Vice General Sha decided to travel north and south to the rich family—anyway, in this day and age, the rich Not many are clean."

No wonder Xia Yun was still thinking about why the legendary bandit couldn't even see a single figure when he was walking the mountain road - but even so, it couldn't move Xia Yun's first impression of this person in the slightest.

Turning grass into bandits and robbing the people by force, although it is in the name of "robbing the rich and helping the poor", the essence is that the world is not ashamed.

Reminds her of herself ten years ago.

The self-proclaimed justice, the self-proclaimed knight-errant, who is full of words to do justice for the sky, to put it bluntly, is to show off his own quickness.

When he was a child, Xia Yun always believed that robbing the rich and helping the poor was justice and the way of heaven.But she never thought about whether the rich should really be stolen and robbed as they should—there are so many people in this world who are diligent and frugal to barely save a little money, Most of them are those who commit the crimes of eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and the poor family. If they should suffer innocent disasters because they are rich, it would be too ridiculous and generous.

Even if the criminals are really defrauded of their fortunes, these so-called rangers will not be able to act on behalf of the heavens.

Confucianism violates the law with writing, and chivalry violates prohibition with martial arts.

Evil should be punished, but never by justice outside the law.

The crux of the problem is - Xia Yun has always understood clearly that in troubled times, there is no kingly law.And this world is far more complicated than she imagined. The so-called black and white is just a joke in the storybook.

"Hey, Mr. Sha." Xia Yunfei dismounted from his horse, walked a few steps to the edge of the cliff, looked at Lan Weijian, who gathered from all directions and rushed under the iron chain, and asked abruptly, "General Lantian knows that this life-saving Was the money stolen?"

Sha Xianren shook his head, and said in a sarcasm, "Military orders are like a mountain, the general is a loyal person, he would rather starve to death than do such a thing like this, if he knows, he will definitely be dealt with by military law."

"The general is a shining blade, never hesitates, never looks back, otherwise why do you think that brothers are willing to come to a place where snakes and insects are infested?" Sha Xianren narrowed his eyes, "We only admit He can bear the title of general, but there is also a need for someone in the team to wipe them out. Too strong a temper is only suitable for leading troops forward, and in this army, there needs to be someone who is willing to be the back of the sword."

Xia Yun looked away from the rushing river below, did not look directly into Sha Xianren's eyes, and did not make any comments on his "generous statement".

Ding Fan and other people in the bodyguard agency also didn't know what to say. They originally wanted to find the bodyguard silver, but they didn't fight much because of Xia Yun's relationship before, but they also saw each other with Sha Xianren along the way. bored.This journey can be considered to understand the cause and effect, and it is even more difficult between the righteousness of the family and the country and the Escort's words and deeds.

How can there be any right or wrong?

Only three-year-olds can tell right from wrong.

Xia Yun felt that he had conveyed all the information in the open and in the dark to Ding Fan, and left the entanglement of "looking for darts or not" to the head of the escort agency, and turned to Miss Qiao with a faint smile,

"I asked Long Zhengwen before and said that the Qiao's mansion, which came here from the capital, is not far from the Longjiazhai, and it will be there in two or three days. As we have agreed, go to the Longjia to rest for a night, tomorrow I'll send you back to Qiao's house... As for the money owed to you... If you still have a conscience, you should understand how many lives I saved you along the way... After that, the business between us will be settled, understand?"

Miss Qiao nodded.

Xia Yun gave Long Zhengwen a look, signaling him and the others to go first.

"What about the horse?" Qiao Anyue asked out loud.

"Just keep it. This horse has been tamed and won't run." Long Zhengwen had already stepped on the iron chain first, his footsteps were steady, and the iron chain only swayed from side to side at the beginning. After making a movement, he walked and flew to the edge of the cliff opposite in a short time.

The Escort Bureau and others and Sha Xianren followed closely behind, Xia Yun and Qiao Anyue were left after a while.

"..." Xia Yun stared at Miss Qiao for a long time, stepping on his feet to draw the height difference between the two, and finally gave up the idea of ​​carrying someone across the chain.

She reached out her hand abruptly to circle Miss Qiao's waist, and her chin just rested on Qiao Anyue's shoulder.The other party's body fragrance immediately hit his nostrils, and Xia Yun couldn't help but his earlobes turned red.

"Hold tight." She was usually chatty and just dropped three words dryly.

Qiao Anyue hugged her back obediently, she still didn't forget to touch Xia Yun's waist with both hands - sure enough, she had already taken back the soldier amulet in her arms.

A moment of disappointment flashed in amber eyes.

Xia Yun held Qiao Anyue in his arms, and with his inner strength running, he jumped onto the iron chain.

The weight of the two people pressed the iron cable downwards in a huge arc, and the water droplets splashing up the rock wall from the reunited Lanwei stream seemed to rub against the soles of the feet.Qiao Anyue saw the strange-looking vegetation beside the flowing water with sharp eyes, and her heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Rhizoma alba, bitter, slightly cold.The leaves are jagged, with white margins, and green stems, no more than one finger long.Appropriate amount for internal use.It can be boiled and eaten in soup. Those who put it into the soup are colorless and tasteless, which can confuse the mind.

Growing up in southern Xinjiang, born in Wangchuan, he can forget his feelings in the slightest, and leave the soul in severe cases, so he is also called——

Heartbroken.

"Afraid of heights?" Qiao Anyue's sudden accelerated heartbeat did not escape Xia Yun's perception, not to mention that the two of them are hugging each other now, the sound of the heartbeat was almost poured into Xia Yun's ears.She just thought that Miss Qiao didn't walk by like this, and made a rare noise to divert Miss Qiao's attention.

Qiao Anyue quickly regained her senses, her hands unconsciously clenched Xia Yun's clothes, she struggled to look away from the heartbroken grass, unwilling to admit the flash of panic and deep loathing in her heart just now.

Staring at the red hairband behind Xia Yun's head, Qiao Anyue snorted, "Yes."

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Xia Yun had already walked half of the iron chain before standing up.

"Yeah." Qiao Anyue's fingers were cold, and she couldn't help hugging Xia Yun even tighter.

After a long while, Xia Yun had already brought her to the opposite cliff. The moment her toes landed, Xia Yun glared at the crowd watching the show. The redness of her earlobes had spread to her entire face. She blushed and patted Joe. On An Yue's back, she coughed twice, "...You're holding me so hard that I can hardly breathe...Okay, let go quickly, I'm on the ground."

After knowing what she had done, Miss Qiao quickly let go of her hand, feeling a little embarrassed, as if she wanted to say something to go back to ease the atmosphere, but finally she pursed her lips and said nothing.

Under Xia Yun's murderous eyes, Long Zhengwen hastily let out a long whistle - at that moment, the big bay red horse that the Long family raised loosely in the forest came out of the forest.

Xia Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly picked a horse to follow.

Qiao Anyue also flew on the horse, stared at Xia Yun's back for a moment, and slowly spit out a pitch-black pill from the back molars.

"What are you doing behind? Let's go!" Xia Yun's urging voice came faintly from the front.

"Ah."

Qiao Anyue silently put the pill back into her bosom, rode her horse to follow, the sound of the tail fell in the rushing Lanwei stream, inaudible.

The author has something to say: I think I can come up with a Chinese question. May I ask, what kind of different emotions did Qiao Xiaoyue express in the last three "hmm"?
