The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 89 Chapter 89
The next morning, Duan Wuji and Tie Niu had breakfast and immediately bid farewell to Qiu Tianbao.

"Mr. Qiu, thank you for your hospitality for so many days. If there is a chance, let's meet again."

Qiu Tianbao nodded.

"Well, okay. Come here, bring out the horses of my two virtuous brothers, and also bring the presents I gave to the two virtuous brothers."

After hearing this, the servants at home brought Duan Wuji and Tie Niu's horses over. Duan Wuji and Tie Niu saw that their mounts had been well fed for a while, and the horses saw their masters. Nodding and snorting, he rubbed against the two of them without hesitation, which shows that this animal also has feelings.

Seeing that their weapons were all there, the two nodded in satisfaction.Before long, the servant brought all the gifts up.

Qiu Tianbao said with a smile: "You two virtuous brothers, I don't have anything good to give you two. Each of you has 2000 taels of silver and [-] bolts of silk and satin each. This is my brother's kindness."

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu looked at each other after listening.

Duan Wuji took a step forward and said: "Brother Qiu, the gift you gave is really heavy, we are not going home this time, we have to go to Huashan for a few days, you see so many things on the way It's inconvenient! Besides, if you bring a lot of money with you, you will also get into trouble on the road.

Look how good it is, each of us only needs you to tattoo 200 taels of silver. Is this cloth? We will pick five of the best colors from here and bring them home. Do you think this will work? "

Qiu Tianbao smiled wryly after hearing this and said: "Well, what you said is also reasonable, then you can just figure it out. Bringing too much property on the road may indeed bring disasters. It's okay, brother will save the rest of these things for you first. , come once and pick it up again.”

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu laughed.

"Okay, then let my brother keep it for us for the time being."

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu unwrapped their bundles, picked five bolts of brightly colored cloth from inside and wrapped them up, and each took 200 taels of silver to wrap them up.

The two people led the horse out of Prince Qiu's mansion, and then bowed their hands to Qiu Tianbao.

"Brother, please go back.

Brother, our green mountains will never fall, and our green waters will flow forever. We will eventually have a chance to meet again. Let's meet again in the future. "

After finishing speaking, the two of them got on their horses and immediately hit the horses and ran down eastward.

In a short time, the two of them left the city. The two of them rode their horses all the way, heading straight for Huashan and rushed over. The journey was not too far, just a few hundred miles.

The two of them walked slowly along the way, admiring the scenery along the way. It was already mid-spring, and the Guanzhong Plain was beautiful.

But see that: Hundreds of flowers are blooming, vegetation is new, colorful like brocade clouds.Spring swallows dance in the field, butterflies fly in search of flowers.The farmer knows how tired he is when weeding, and the old man laughs frequently when he sees his grandson.

Tieniu was galloping forward while chatting with Duan Wuji. At noon, the two of them found a restaurant and had some food. They were planning to rest for a while and ask about the way to continue on their way.

At this moment, an old man in his 60s walked in tremblingly with a cane.

The old man walked up to Duan Wuji and Tie Niu and knelt down on both knees, kowtowing to them continuously.

"Gentlemen, please do me a favor. I have a stutter. I haven't eaten for almost a day."

The two looked at each other, and said to themselves: Why did you meet a beggar?Just eat less by yourself, and the two pushed what they hadn't finished to the old man.

"Old man, you can eat as much as you can. If you are not full, we will ask you for more."

The old man was very grateful for listening.

"Thank you two, two kind-hearted uncles, I wish you a smooth journey and a long life!"

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu laughed.

I thought to myself: It's all about where!What makes you live a hundred years?
The waiter in the restaurant laughed and said, "Old man Wu, where is your granddaughter? Why don't you sell singing and beg for food now? Selling singing is more money!"

The old man burst into tears immediately.

"Hey, little brother, don't mention it, my granddaughter was snatched by the old master Wang in our town. You said that no one would listen to my lonely old man singing. I have no choice but to beg for food."

"Ah? When did this happen? This Mr. Wang has gone too far. He is almost buried, but he did such a worthless thing."

"When did it happen? It didn't happen this morning. Alas, this master Wang is too domineering. He really isn't a damn thing."

Tieniu raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

Tie Niu suppressed the anger in his heart and asked: "Old man, are you fighting for the money from that old man?"

The old man Wu smiled wryly after hearing this: "Master, look at what you said, we are from Anwei Province, because we suffered a flood there, we ended up here. During the flood, my son and daughter-in-law were all washed away by the flood." After leaving, I left such a little flesh and blood to the old man.

We have come from afar, we have never dealt with their family, how can we argue what he owes him?

Alas, we are being bullied here just because we are two foreigners, alas, it is so embarrassing! "

Tie Niu patted the table.

"Old man, how about I go with you to get your granddaughter back?"

"Grandpa, that's a good relationship, the little old man kowtows to you."

Tie Niu waved his hand.

"Okay, okay, get up, let's go, it's bad if we go late."

Tieniu stood up and paid for the meal, and then said to Duan Wuji: "Brother, let's go, come with me to have a look, let's do another good deed today."

Duan Wuji smiled.

"Brother Tieniu, why are you taking the lead in fighting for justice today?"

Tie Niu laughed.

"Brother, see what you said? How can I be missing in this battle of chivalry? Let's go, it's meaningless to talk, let's do some practical things."

The two took their horses and followed the old man Wu to a family in the east of the town.

When I got to the door, I took a look.

Ho!The gate of this family is really magnificent, the gate is painted black, and there are two small stone lions more than two feet high on both sides of the gate. The old man Wu just wanted to go up and knock on the door.

Tie Niu waved his hand.

"Old man, don't knock on the door, just watch me knock."

After finishing speaking, Tie Niu took the big stick from the horse's bird's wing ring, and threw it at the gate with all his strength.

There was only a loud noise, and the door was smashed open by Niu Tie's stick.

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "Brother, you can really do it! Come on, let's go in and have a look. See if it's them or us brothers."

The old man Wu was shocked when he saw it.

"Both of you, you are really powerful. Come on, come in with me and ask for someone."

The two of them led the horse into this large courtyard. When they saw it, the large courtyard was spacious enough to cover at least six or seven acres of land. With more than a dozen big pagoda trees, it looks like a relatively wealthy family.

The huge sound of the door being smashed just now had already alarmed the family, and within a short time, a dozen or so people walked out of the house.

These people are male and female, old and young.

Tieniu Niu turned around and asked Old Man Wu.

"Hey, who is the old king who robbed your granddaughter?"

The old head Wu pointed at him.

"Engong, he is the one who robbed my granddaughter."

Tie Niu followed his fingers and saw that he was a fat old man in his sixties.

Tieniu suppressed his anger and forced a smile from his face.

"Old Wangtou, why did you rob someone's girl? Stop talking nonsense and let her go quickly."

The old king shook his head and said, "Who the hell are you? Are you guilty of breaking the door of my house?
It's none of your business whether you want to grab his granddaughter or not. "

As soon as Tieniu heard this, he knew that the old man was not convinced, so he slammed into the fire immediately, and walked in front of the old man in three steps and two steps, pa, pa, pa, with four big mouths.

The old man was sent flying at that time, and he fell to the ground when he tilted his body, and passed out when he rolled his eyes.

A young man in his 20s from this family was furious when he saw this.

"Where did the wild boy come from? How the hell did he come to our house to play wild? It's really boring."

As he said, he reached out and was about to come over.

Tieniu sneered and said, "What? Are you not convinced?"

Tie Niu waved his fist in front of his eyes, and then swept his leg down.

The man fell to the ground in response, Tieniu was still angry and stomped on the man's legs twice.

There were only two clicks in the ears, and the bones were broken.

The family covered their eyes when they saw it, knowing that they had met a scumbag today.I don't know how many people will be beaten if it continues to be tough today?

An old woman in her 50s came over crying.

"Second masters, stop, don't fight anymore, can't we let him go? Just treat it as if you were doing your best."

After hearing this, Duan Wuji sneered and said: "Let people go? It's not as simple as you said, is it over if you let people go? Hmph, I want to be beautiful. Don't dream anymore."

"Ah? What else do you want? Could it be that you still want to kill people?"

After hearing this, Duan Wuji pulled out a shining sword.

"We don't kill people. If we want to kill people, we will kill all of your family and leave no one behind."

Seeing the situation in front of them, the family finally knew what it meant to be afraid. Seeing this, the whole family was so frightened that they all fell to their knees on the ground, kowtowing for mercy.

New Year's greetings can't stop talking.

At this time, the old boss Wang also slowly relieved his breath. The old guy got up from the ground, looked at the situation in front of him, and immediately knelt down in fright.

"Two heroes, thousands of mistakes are the fault of the little old man, please let our family off, we dare not do such immoral things again.

Two heroic grandpas, please let us go, let our family go. "

The old guy is now pretending to be a bear with a swollen face.

Tieniu glared at him fiercely, and said angrily: "Where the hell did you hide the girl? Why don't you let me out quickly?"

After hearing this, the old king immediately ran into the house, and led a young girl out of the house after a while.

"Master, I let you guys out, please spare my family."

Duan Wuji smiled at Old Wang.

"Is your family quite rich? You must have done a lot of immoral things. Hurry up and get 30 taels of silver, otherwise, hum."

Duan Wuji shook the sword, and the whole family was frightened.

The old Wangtou knew that today was going to be difficult, so he had to take out 30 taels of silver from the house and put it on the ground.

Duan Wuji picked up the 30 taels of silver from the ground and handed it to Old Wu.

"Old Wu, hurry up and take these thirty pieces of silver and hire a carriage to flee for your life. You can go as far as you can, but don't stay here any longer, or your lives may not be saved. of."

The grandfather and grandson collected the money, turned around and walked out with gratitude.

Tieniu looked at the family and said coldly: "I don't think you are like that rich family. Today we don't have the same knowledge as you. If we do evil again in the future, there will definitely be no good results."

The two people waited for the grandparent and grandson to leave for more than an hour, and they estimated that the grandparent and grandson had already gone far, so they left the yard.

The two got on their horses, galloped immediately, and ran down in the direction of Mount Hua.
