Dragon Warrior

Chapter 73

Xiao Jing and Zhao Min were talking, and Brother Loser came to see him again on Friday.The two looked at each other, and Zhao Min said, "I think there is new news from Mingjiao."

After walking up to salute on Friday, he said: "Master, our spies have sent a message, explaining that after the battle at Guangmingding, Zhang Wuji, who was sent by Wudang, was promoted as the leader of Mingjiao. Not detected."

Zhao Min frowned, and said puzzledly: "Although Zhang Wuji has high martial arts skills, he is not a member of the Ming Cult, how could he be the leader of the Ming Cult?"

Xiao Jing smiled and said: "Although Zhang Wuji is a member of the Wudang sect, his mother is the daughter of Yin Tianzheng of the Tianying Sect, and she is also a half-member of the Demon Sect! Moreover, he has practiced the Ming Sect's magical skill 'Great Teleportation of the Universe', In the Battle of Guangmingding, he turned the tide and saved Mingjiao from the fire and water. Yang Xiao, Wusanren, and the flag envoy of the Five Elements Banner were all saved by him, and he was respected and grateful by the whole sect. It is also the key reason why he was able to sit on the position of leader."

Zhao Min said: "Which point?"

Xiao Jing said: "Mingjiao's biggest enemy is naturally the imperial court, but the one who fears the most is the Hundred Damage Taoist. This person's martial arts are too high, and he fights alone. Mingjiao has no one to fight against him, but the interests hanging over their heads A sword. A leader whose martial arts can rival that of Taoists is too important to them. Zhang Wuji is a godsend to them. Naturally, he must be promoted to the position of leader no matter what, and everyone from top to bottom will not accept , as expected.”

Zhao Min said in surprise: "I didn't expect Taoist Baishang to make Mingjiao so afraid."

Xiao Jing explained: "After all, you don't have much time in the rivers and lakes. When you think about things, you can't help thinking like a politician in the court. You pay attention to the art of compromise and fight without breaking. No one will break the rules and throw the table unless it is absolutely necessary. But The rivers and lakes are different from the temples after all. Here, there are countless grievances and hatreds. It is normal to draw the sword if there is a disagreement. The power of the individual is infinitely magnified. Although the Mingjiao has a large number of people, it is a gang of rivers and lakes. The high-ranking people are always reckless, and the threat brought by a top expert is far greater than a hundred thousand troops, and similarly, a leader with top martial arts can also get their full support."

Zhao Min said: "In this way, there may be their new leader among the group of people discovered earlier! Well, if this is the case, I have to see and hear their words by the way. You wait for me for a while, and I will talk to you later. I'll go to see them together. Remember, don't tear down my lift!" After saying that, he turned and left.

Xiao Jing shouted: "What are you doing?"

Zhao Min turned around and smiled sweetly, and said, "Changing clothes, do you want to come?"

The corner of Xiao Jing's mouth twitched, she hid her face and retreated in defeat.

Xiao Jing was bored and waited in the water pavilion for half an hour before Zhao Min came late.At this time, she changed back into men's clothing again, dressed as a young gentleman, wearing a royal blue silk shirt, waving a folding fan lightly, unable to conceal a graceful and luxurious air.

Xiao Jing's eyes lit up, and she praised, "Everyone praises me for Pan An's appearance, so the gauze hat looks like Chanjuan! Min Min is still so gorgeous in disguise as a man, if she goes to take the imperial examination, she might be able to be a son-in-law."

Zhao Min asked curiously: "Female son-in-law? Whose girl is so bold, why have I never heard of it? Which dynasty is it?"

Xiao Jing said: "It may be the Song Dynasty, or it may be the Ming Dynasty. It was written in a play a long time ago."

Zhao Min was even more curious: "It's been 2000 years, why have I never heard of the Ming Dynasty?"

Xiao Jing smiled and said: "Of course you haven't heard of it, the dynasty I dreamed about."

Zhao Min turned her beautiful eyes and asked again: "Hehe, what did you dream about in your dream? Is it me?"

Xiao Jing smiled lightly and said, "Of course there is you. In my dream, you are still a royal lady who is loved by thousands of people, a fairy depicted by a talented scholar, you can only watch from a distance but not play with it."

Zhao Min was delighted and said, "What about you?"

A flash of memory flashed in Xiao Jing's eyes, and he said: "I am a self-made businessman, a rising business tycoon in the shopping malls, and a romantic idler who enjoys the world's riches and honor."

Zhao Min frowned and said, "Don't we two meet?"

Xiao Jing said: "No. You and I are people from two worlds. In my eyes, you are the person who lives in the story. There are countless people in the world who like you, and I appreciate you too."

Zhao Min frowned even more, and said: "But we still haven't met! All I dreamed was that we two will be together in this life, the previous life, and the next life! Your dream is not good at all, why do you still remember such a dream? How clear is that?"

Xiao Jing said emotionally: "Maybe the dream is too real, let me fall into the dream too deeply!"

Zhao Min was silent for a while, shook her head, and decided not to continue this unpleasant topic.Unfolding the folding fan in his hand, a picture of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains appeared vividly on the paper.She shook it twice, and said: "Let's go, let's take Master Ku and the others, and go outside to enjoy the wind together, and greet Master Zhang and his party by the way."

Xiao Jing said: "I suggest you don't bring Master Ku and Ah Da with you. Their martial arts are not low, especially Ah Da, who used to be famous in the Jianghu. Yang Xiao and the others are well-informed, maybe they can If you recognize them, it would be inappropriate to guess your identity based on them."

Zhao Min nodded and said: "There is nothing wrong with Master Ku, but Ada, it is true that his identity is easily exposed. How about this, I will take the God Arrow Hachio with me, even if they have already discovered my identity, isn't there still you? "

Xiao Jing secretly smiled and said nothing, this Ku Toutuo can really pretend, after so many years, he is still watertight.However, he has no bad intentions towards Zhao Min, and he will be used in the future, so he will not expose him for the time being.

Zhao Min ordered the four losers on Friday to meet Zhao Yishang and wait for her to pass.Lost on Friday and others led the order to retreat.Zhao Min also ordered Ku Toutuo and the others not to show their faces for the time being, so as not to spoil the big event, Ku Toutuo and others hid in the backyard according to the order.

Xiao Jing and Zhao Min came out of the gate of the villa, and the horses had already been prepared outside.He rode his horse and walked along the Qingshiban road for a while, and the god arrow eight heroes were waiting in front.As soon as the boss Zhao Yishang saw the two coming, he hurriedly led the other seven people to visit.

Zhao Yishang said: "The people of the Ming Cult have discovered the bodies of the disciples of the various factions that we buried and are now investigating the situation. It is ten miles away from here, and the subordinates dare not get too close."

Zhao Min nodded, signaling him to lead the way.Xiao Jing and Zhao Min followed behind Zhao Yishang, walking side by side, and the other seven followed behind.Zhao Min thought for a while, and then said: "Everyone in the Ming Cult knows you, what are you going to tell them later?"

Xiao Jing smiled and said: "I just said that you are my virtuous younger brother, and I came here as a guest, how do they know?"

Zhao Min showed a strange look on his face, and said: "You have to behave yourself later, and you are not allowed to touch your hands. If someone sees you, I'm afraid they will think you are a rabbit master! Your reputation as the leader of the Xiao family will be ruined in one fell swoop. gone."

Xiao Jing's breath was stagnant, and she said to herself: "Sister, have you been taking advantage of me all this time?"

While the horse was running for a cup of tea, Xiao Jing suddenly said: "Let's wait for them here, they are coming this way."

Zhao Min and the others didn't hear anything, but they were convinced by Xiao Jing's words, they got off their horses one after another, and walked to the side to wait in the shade.

After a while, a group of people came to the front. Although they were dressed as merchants and pushed a lot of carts loaded with goods, they couldn't hide the dignified demeanor of the leading few.

At this time, Zhang Wuji and the others also found Xiao Jing and the group of ten people. Zhang Wuji had such great eyesight that he recognized Xiao Jing at a glance, and said in surprise: "That seems to be Brother Xiao, and there is also a handsome young man with eight a guard."

Yang Xiao and the others took a closer look and recognized it. Yang Xiao wondered, "It's been so long, and the whereabouts of other sects are still unknown. Why is this leader Xiao still hanging around here?"

Zhang Wuji said: "With Brother Xiao's martial arts, it is definitely impossible for something to happen. Maybe he also discovered something strange, stay in Beidi to investigate the situation, we will find out after a while."

Just as the Mingjiao people rode their horses over, there was a burst of dust on the official road, and another group of messy people came galloping on horses.When everyone saw it, it turned out that a group of Mongolian officers and soldiers passed by, about 60 to 100 people, and more than [-] women were tied up by Yuan soldiers and dragging along the ground.Most of these women were so lonely that they couldn't keep up with the horses. Some fell to the ground and were dragged around by ropes.

All the women are Han Chinese, which shows that half of the clothes of the people captured by Yuan soldiers have been torn to pieces, and some have even exposed most of their bodies, crying and crying, which is extremely miserable.

Some Yuan soldiers held wine bottles and were half drunk, while others beat the girls with whips.These Mongolian soldiers grew up on horseback and had excellent whip skills. When they pulled out the whip, they pulled back and rolled off a large piece of the woman's clothes.The rest of the crowd cheered and laughed loudly.

It has been nearly a hundred years since the Mongols invaded the Central Plains, and the Han people have always been regarded as worse than animals, but it is rare to see such wanton rape and bullying in broad daylight.

All the heroes of the Ming Cult were about to burst into tears, waiting for Zhang Wuji's order, they would rush forward to kill soldiers and save people.Suddenly there was a scream, and the military officer who was walking in the forefront with his arms around the woman turned over and fell off his horse, with a dangling feather arrow stuck in his forehead.

Xiao Jing's face was as heavy as water, and she couldn't help but glance at Zhao Min, her heart boiling with murderous intent.Zhao Min's face was also not good-looking, and he said loudly: "Wu Liupo, let them let those women go, what is it like to be so nonsense in broad daylight?"

The team of officers and soldiers suddenly lost their leader, they were taken aback, when they saw that there were only ten people who made the move, they became more courageous, surrounded Xiao Jing and others with shouts, and cursed again and again.

Zhao Min was in a very bad mood, she knew that Xiao Jing had always hated the Mongols for oppressing the Han people, but she didn't expect to meet him in front of her this time.Seeing Xiao Jing becoming more and more expressionless, and knowing that if one of them is not handled well, it may affect the relationship between the two, she can't help being very annoyed at this team of Yuan soldiers who are doing evil, and said coldly: "The fourth phase of the world's thieves, It's all caused by these officers and soldiers who don't care about the common people. Kill them and don't leave a single one alive."

As soon as the word "口" came down, there was a continuous swishing sound, the eight divine arrows shot arrows together, it really pierced through the Yang with a hundred steps, every arrow killed a Yuan soldier.Although the Yuan soldiers moved hastily and were taken aback, all of them were skillful with bows and horses, shouted loudly, and immediately returned arrows, but no matter how they were the opponents of Shenjian Baxiong, more than 30 people were shot to death in a blink of an eye.Seeing that the momentum was not right, the rest of the people whistled repeatedly, leaving the women behind and returning to their horses.

Xiao Jing's face softened a little, but he still felt resentment beyond words. This was only what he saw, and there were more things he didn't see, which shows how the Han people are in dire straits.

It's not that he has any opinions on Zhao Min. Although he and Zhao Min are in love with each other, there are some things that cannot be left behind. Their backgrounds determine that they cannot completely agree on many things unless they fade out completely. On the stage of the world, live a reclusive life that doesn't care about world affairs.Before that, we can only understand and tolerate each other, rather than blame others indiscriminately.

He feels that he has worked so hard to practice martial arts, is it just to rule the world?To be poor is to be good to oneself, and to be rich is to benevolent to the world.In the past, his martial arts were low, and he was reluctant to protect himself. Now that he has this ability, maybe he should also contribute to Kangyuan.

In the Battle of Yashan, most of the virtuous Han scholar-bureaucrats died generously, and the rest either died in the mountains or flattered the new master to invite power and wealth. one.Xiao Jing was also very saddened by this situation. It doesn't matter who is the emperor, but at least thousands of Han families and common people must live with dignity, instead of a life that is only worth the price of a donkey.

Thinking of this, he felt that the people of Mingjiao were also pleasing to the eye. Leaving aside other things, at least they were unambiguous about the matter of resisting Yuan Dynasty. Show mercy and let them live.
