At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 55 Warning
The bright moon was in the sky, and under the bright moonlight, the light of the knife attacked the man in black with a grimace, wave after wave, like a horse training.If the knife in Gao Bufan's hand is like a stormy sea, then the ghost-faced man in black is a light boat that rides the wind and waves.

With a crisp ding, the ghost-faced man in black finally made a move. He flicked the single knife in Gao Bufan's hand, and the light of the knife in the sky stopped suddenly. Gao Bufan himself was shocked to take two steps back, and the single knife in his hand almost dropped. drop.

"That's right, it's beyond my expectations to be able to cultivate to this level in a month." The grimace in black nodded approvingly, his voice as old as ever.

Gao Bufan smiled wryly: "But this junior still hasn't even touched the corner of your clothes, senior."

The grimacing man in black snorted coldly and said: "If you meet me, then the old man's years of training will be in vain. Young people must be down-to-earth, and must not be so lofty. You must know that you can't become a fat man by eating one bite."

Gao Bufan said with a smile: "What the senior said is very true, the junior is too hasty."

The grimace in black said indifferently: "The journey of martial arts has always been led by the master, and the cultivation depends on oneself. The old man has already taught you the martial arts. How far you can go depends on your own luck."

Gao Bufan's heart moved, and he blurted out: "Senior, are you leaving?"

The ghost-faced man in black nodded and said: "You are clever, yes, the old man has other things to do, so let's forget about it today, the old man has already spent too much time on you."

"When will the senior come again, or if the kid encounters problems in cultivation, how can I find your answer?" Gao Bufan asked quickly.

The man in black with a grimacing face said indifferently: "Of course I will come when the old man should come. You are a smart man. Even if you encounter problems, I believe you can solve them yourself. Okay, remember what the old man once said to you. When you meet a top master of Buddhism and Taoism, it is best not to expose your martial arts."

Gao Bufan nodded and said: "Junior, remember..."

Before he finished speaking, the ghost-faced man in black had already flashed into the woods and disappeared.

Gao Bufan's expression is a bit complicated. Until now, he still doesn't know who the grimacing man in black is, what he looks like, and what the purpose of teaching him is, but one thing is certain, that is, the exercises he taught are very effective. , Gao Bufan found that he was much better than before in all aspects, whether it was strength or speed, or eyesight and hearing.For example, facing dozens of robbers today, he can easily crush them with only one person. If it was in the past, he would definitely not be able to be so calm and composed.

In the early morning of the second day, Gao Bufan was about to continue to go out to buy beans, when someone came in to report: "Young Master, someone is looking for you outside, but he refused to give his name, and just asked you to meet outside the racecourse."

Gao Bufan's heart moved, he ordered Gao Shou and Gao Ren to harness the carriage, and he got on his horse and galloped towards the gate of the ranch.Although Feiying Horse Farm is not big, it is not too small. The house is built at the foot of Feiying Mountain, so there is still a long distance from the entrance of the house to the suspension bridge at the entrance of the ranch.

Let’s talk about Gao Bufan rushing to the gate of the ranch, the suspension bridge by the river has not been lowered, but he saw a big man standing on the other side of the river, wearing a bamboo hat, and the edge was pushed down very low, so he couldn’t see his face clearly, but the tall figure looked Some familiar.

"Master, do you know the man across the way?" The old servant in charge of guarding the suspension bridge asked a little worriedly, and the two young servants next to him simply held bows and arrows.

It's no wonder they are so vigilant. Now that there are soldiers and horses outside and thieves are rampant, but the man on the other side hides his head and shows his tail, and he has a sturdy physique. He doesn't look like a good person at first glance.

Gao Bufan nodded and said, "It's a friend of mine, let's put down the suspension bridge!"

Hearing this, the old servant lowered the suspension bridge, and muttered in a low voice: "My friend, young master, is really weird. He refuses to announce his name, and he refuses to enter the door!"

Gao Bufan got off his horse and walked across the suspension bridge. The man on the other side lowered his bamboo hat even more. He only waved at Gao Bufan, then turned around and walked quickly, until he turned into a weed bush that blocked his view. stop.

Gao Bufan followed without hesitation, cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Brother Sun, are you all right?"

The man lifted the hat, revealing a big bearded face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, very rough, it was Sun Anzu, he smiled and asked: "How did Mr. Gao recognize me?"

"Although Big Brother Sun is wearing a bamboo hat, his body shape and beard on his chin cannot escape my eyes, not to mention that Big Brother Sun asked to see me by name, but he refused to announce his name. He only made an appointment to meet outside, except for Big Brother Sun. I really can't think of anyone else." Gao Bufan said.

Sun Anzu gave a thumbs up: "Young Master Gao really has good eyesight and a thoughtful mind, but since Young Master Gao recognized me, why did he dare to meet me alone?"

Gao Bufan frowned and asked, "Why not?"

"I killed the county magistrate Zhou, and now I am a robber who robbed houses. Is Mr. Gao not afraid of being implicated, and dare to be friends with me?" Sun Anzu stared at Gao Bufan closely after finishing speaking.

Gao Bufan smiled casually and said: "Why don't you dare, Brother Sun has been forced to go this far, so I can't blame you, what's more, although Brother Sun committed robbery, he didn't hurt anyone's life, if you are like Zhang Jincheng Kill innocent people indiscriminately, do all kinds of evil, not only will I not be friends with you, but I will immediately kill you!"

Sun Anzu's dark hole shrunk slightly, and he said with a little shame: "I saw Mr. Gao and your father entering the city that afternoon. I planned to wait until you left the city to meet again and fulfill the promise to be a slave to Mr. Gao for a year. Unexpectedly, Mr. Gao did not Did not go out of the city. Early the next morning, the dog official of Zhou county magistrate took the yamen servants and tricked all the refugees into the city. I thought it was the dog official who showed mercy and resettled everyone, but unexpectedly let us be servants and went to Luokou Cang Help transport the military supplies to Zhuojun.

Zhou Gouguan saw that he was strong, so he ordered me to be the commander-in-chief, responsible for leading everyone to work. I refused, and even scolded him a few words, so he beat me with a whip, and I punched him in a fit of anger. Unexpectedly, the dog officer would belch as soon as he punched him without being beaten, so I had no choice but to run out of the city quickly.At first I thought of looking for Mr. Gao at the racecourse, but I was worried that I would hurt Mr. Gao, so I fled into Gaojibo as a thief. "

Gao Bufan sighed and said: "The government forced the people to rebel, and the people had to rebel, so Brother Sun was also forced to go to Liangshan. I really can't blame you!"

"Liangshan?" Sun Anzu asked suspiciously: "What kind of mountain is Liangshan? Which county is it in?"

Gao Bufan was sweating secretly, the story of Shuibo Liangshan happened at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, and now there is no shadow of the Tang Dynasty, where did the Northern Song Dynasty come from, Sun Anzu naturally didn't know about Liangshan, so he quickly changed the topic and said: "I don't know why Brother Sun came to find me today thing?"

Sun Anzu replied: "I have two things to do this time. The first thing is to apologize to Mr. Gao. I failed to fulfill my promise to be your servant for one year."

Gao Bufan shook his head and said: "No need, the second thing!"

Sun Anzu's complexion immediately became serious, and he asked, "Does Mr. Gao have a grudge against Zhang Jincheng?"

Gao Bufan raised his eyebrows and said, "That's right, how did Brother Sun know?"

Sun Anzu shook his head and said: "Master Gao, you don't need to ask me how I know, you should hurry up and get ready, the day after tomorrow at the latest, tomorrow at the earliest, Zhang Jin said that he will personally lead people to attack your racecourse, hurry up and escape!"

Gao Bufan's complexion changed slightly, and he asked quickly, "How many people will Zhang Jin say he will bring?"

"I don't know, but I guess it won't be less. Zhang Jin said that there are two to 3000 people under his command now, and he has recently seized a large number of weapons from the Sui army, including many bows and arrows. The strength is not the same as before. Your racecourse I'm afraid that manpower is not enough for him to plug his teeth, so if you can escape, you should run away as soon as possible, money and horses are all outside your body, life-saving is the most important thing!" Sun Anzu persuaded in a deep voice.

Gao Bufan was stunned, this is really a life-saving timely news, he said gratefully: "Thank you, Brother Sun, for taking the risk to inform me, I am very grateful!"

Sun Anzu said ashamedly: "Zhang Jin said that the situation is so powerful now that even the officers and soldiers have to retreat when they see it. This is all I can do, and I really can't help you. Alright, Mr. Gao, you should go back and prepare quickly. Don't think you can defend it. It’s best to escape with the whole family into the city as soon as possible, life-saving is the most important thing!”

Gao Bufan cupped his hands noncommittally and said, "Thank you, Brother Sun, for reminding me!"

"Take care!" Sun Anzu had finished speaking, so he didn't stay any longer, put on his bamboo hat again, cupped his fists, turned and left quickly.
