Poor Family Laity

  Chapter 61, Xuannv Sword

The Jiang family in the Guangwei General's Mansion used to be a well-ranked family of generals in Rongcheng. Unfortunately, they failed to defend the city back then, and their in-laws, Shi's family, were involved in the case of the regent. It's getting worse.

  Jiang Anbang entered Cui's mansion and was thrown in the living room. He waited for a while before seeing Cui Hao.

  He came to ask Cui Hao for the defense army's ordnance.

  Cui Hao was worried about his son at the moment. When he saw Jiang Anbang, he just talked to him hastily, and dismissed him without doing anything.

   Didn’t ask for ordnance, Jiang Anbang was very blocked, and wanted to argue with Cui Hao, but when he thought of the difficulties of the Jiang family now, he gritted his teeth and endured it.

  Although the Jiang family still has a plaque of the fourth-rank general Guangwei hanging on it, but in the entire Jiang family, he is the only fifth-rank guard who really has some real power.

  The eldest brother has been at home for more than ten years, and he and his eldest brother's sons have nothing to do. Now the only thing that can be counted on is a few grandchildren.

  Out of the Cui Mansion, Jiang Anbang got on his horse and saw the wonton stall on the opposite side.

   "Why are they so similar?"

   Surprised, Jiang Anbang returned to the Jiang Mansion, and as soon as he entered the gate of the Jiang Mansion, he ran into Jiang Antai: "Brother!"

  Seeing Jiang Anbang's long face, Jiang Antai knew that he had hit a wall again when he went to the Cui Mansion, and asked with a sigh, "Didn't you want any ordnance?"

  Jiang Anbang didn't want to say more, but just nodded.

  Jiang Antai felt very uncomfortable. The Jiang family had fallen to this point in his hands. Even a normal errand had to be made things difficult for him. He really had no face to face his ancestors!

  Jiang Anbang knew what his elder brother was thinking, and didn't want him to think too much, so he changed the subject: "By the way, elder brother, I encountered a very strange thing today."

  Jiang Antai asked with dignity: "What's so strange?"

  Jiang Anbang: "I saw a little girl doll who looked very similar to my little sister when I was a child. When I first saw it, I was shocked. Do you think it's rare?"

  Hearing this, Jiang Antai was stunned for a moment, then asked eagerly, "Where did you see it?"

  Jiang Anbang: "It's just outside the gate of Cui's mansion." After finishing speaking, he noticed that Jiang Antai's expression was wrong, so he couldn't help asking, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

  Jiang Antai smiled stiffly: "I also find it strange. Speaking of the little sister, we haven't seen each other for more than ten or twenty years. I miss her."

  Jiang Anbang became depressed again: "Isn't it? We were treated so contemptuously in Rongcheng, how sad it is for her to live in the capital."

  Jiang Antai was a little absent-minded: "Little sister is strong, she can hold on."

  Jiang Anbang looked around and said in a low voice: "Brother, it's been three years since the late emperor passed away, and it's been so long since the case of the regent. The suppression of us should be over, right?"

  Jiang Antai's eyes fluttered a little: "Didn't my little girl's letter say that Zhengkun has already entered the Imperial Academy? To enter the Imperial Academy, the emperor must approve it. I think the current emperor should not care about what happened back then."

  Jiang Anbang snorted immediately: "Our family was implicated in what happened back then, and innocents have been suppressed for so many years."

   "Twenty or thirty years have passed, and the Jiang family has been squeezed out. Now even if the suppression is stopped, it will be difficult for us to revive the lintel."

   After finishing speaking, he realized that Jiang Antai was distracted, and was immediately surprised, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

  Jiang Antai made an excuse casually: "This man is getting old and has to be old. He didn't have a good rest last night, and his spirit has not been very good today."

  Jiang Anbang said with concern: "Brother, you have to take good care of your health, our family cannot live without you."

  Jiang Antai nodded, and then asked Jiang Anbang to go back to his room to rest. As soon as he left, he immediately called Jiang Sheng:

   "Second brother said that he saw a girl doll who looked like a younger sister outside Cui's house. I suspect it is Li Changsen's younger daughter. You should go and find out immediately to see if Li Changsen has really come to Rongcheng?"

  Jiang Sheng didn't dare to delay, and hurried to inquire about the news.

   Cui Mansion.

   Cui Hao looked at his weak son lying on the bed, feeling angry and distressed. Thinking of his son's behavior becoming more and more domineering these years, he made up his mind to say a few words to him.

   "In the future, you are not allowed to take advantage of my power to mess around at will. You have to know that there are heavens and people outside the sky, and there are people outside the sky. It's not a big deal. I can help you settle it."

  Cui Yongfeng looked at Cui Hao weakly, lying on the bed for two days, he had already heard from his subordinates about Shang Laojiu's visit: "Father, my poison came from Shennongtang?"

  As soon as Cui Hao heard this, he knew that his son had revenge, and immediately said sharply: "Don't provoke Shennongtang again."

  Cui Yongfeng was not convinced, but thinking of his father's temper, he didn't confront him head-on, but asked the servant to show Cui Hao the pills he bought from Shennongtang.

   "Father, I have seen the doctor and tried it. This pill is very effective. If it is used in the army, it will definitely make all the soldiers support our Cui family even more."

  Cui Hao's face became serious, he took the pill and looked at it: "Really?"

  Old Doctor Xu, who has been supported by the Cui family, nodded: "These pills are indeed very good, mainly because they are convenient, and they are suitable for soldiers who are marching and fighting."

  Cui Hao paid more attention to it. Knowing that his son was acting for the Cui family this time, his face softened a lot, but he still said:

   "I know you are doing it for the good of the Cui family, but you are still too reckless. You don't even think about it. How can you be an ordinary person if you can come up with such a good medicine?"

  Cui Yongfeng: "Father, my son is not stupid. I investigated the person who opened Shennongtang in advance, but he is just a businessman who owns several caravans and opened several dental shops."

   "Father, this medicine is really good! Even if we don't need to go to the army to get the prescription, we can sell it elsewhere, and we can definitely make a lot of money."

   Cui Hao was a little moved, but he didn't say anything. He just asked someone to take the pill and planned to find someone to try it himself.

  Cui Yongfeng waited patiently for two days. When Cui Hao came to see him again, he couldn't wait to ask: "Father, how is the effect of the pill? I didn't lie to you, did I?"

  Cui Hao: "Pills are good, but Shennongtang is not easy to provoke, that Bai Yueguang is lawless, have you forgotten how big a sensation he caused in Rongcheng a few months ago?"

   "You only lost half your life this time, but what about the next time? Son, listen to Dad, forget about it, life is more important."

  Cui Yongfeng was in a hurry: "Father, I was almost poisoned to death, and I still want them to continue to open a drug store in Rongcheng. My son is not reconciled."

"I know what Dad is worried about, but I don't believe that Shennongtang can hire so many masters. Our family is a little tight every year in order to support the three ninth-rank seniors. A newly opened pharmacy can pay more than us. rich?"

   "Father, let me touch the bottom of Shennongtang again. If there is really someone behind them, my son will bear this tone and not trouble Shennongtang anymore."

   Cui Hao frowned and said nothing.

  Cui Yongfeng continued his efforts: "Father, Shennongtang is opened in Rongcheng, so it won't hurt if we learn more about it."

   Cui Hao agrees with this, and when he thinks of the smile on Shang Laojiu's face that he is sure that he dare not do anything to him, he feels very blocked.

   "You can try to touch the bottom of Shennongtang, but you can't use our people."

   "Father, don't worry."

  The matter of Shennong Hall was resolved, Li Wuya and Li Erya both breathed a sigh of relief, and resumed their peaceful life in class.

   "Sister, Qilang and I are going to practice piano at Bibo Lake outside the city later, do you want to come together?"

  When Li Erya heard this, she hurriedly shook her head.

  When she thought of the song that Wuya and Qilang played and played, which was like howling ghosts and howling wolves, she couldn't help shivering.

  It's too ugly!

   It doesn't matter if it sounds bad, the two even used their internal strength, which is simply unbearable.

   Seeing Li Erya avoiding her so much, Li Wuya and Li Qilang expressed their sadness, and silently left holding the qin and jade flute.

   The two of them walked for less than half an hour when a white pigeon suddenly flew to the courtyard of Li's house.

  Li Erya saw it, and immediately recognized Shang Laojiu's flying pigeon, and quickly took off the note on the flying pigeon's foot: "Help, Tie Langkou."

  Seeing the note for help, Li Erya's heart sank, and she started to look for Li Wuya, but when she walked to the door, she suddenly thought that she was her sister.

   You can't always expect Wu Ya, who is a younger sister, to be the first when you encounter everything!

  Li Erya calmed down and looked at the note for help again.

  Flying Pigeon to send a message This is the emergency contact method agreed upon by Wuya and Shang Laojiu after the accident in Shennongtang. It is basically certain that Shang Laojiu sent the distress letter.

  Shang Laojiu is a smart person. Since he knows that there are Bai Yueguang, Black Lotus, and Tianshan Mountain behind them, he should not betray him.

   In this way, the content on the note should be true.

  Shang Laojiu is one of them. If they don't rescue them in time when they are in danger, they will escape in the future, and the trust between the two parties will inevitably be cracked.

  So, I have to go to Tielangkou!

  After careful analysis, Li Erya pondered for a while, then went into the house and took her own sword, then left the city and went straight to the mouth of the iron wolf.

  Worried that she might make a mistake, Li Erya asked the golden eagle at home to find Li Wuya and Li Qilang in order to be sure. She just went to Tielangkou first.

   Iron wolf mouth.

  Shang Laojiu and a caravan under him were intercepted by the Iron Wolf Gang along with their people and goods.

  As the leader of the Iron Wolf Gang who intercepted goods and people, he was not at all happy at this moment, but rather worried.

The ninth-rank expert hired by Cui's family saw fine sweat dripping from his forehead, so he couldn't help but sneered: "Look, you are so scared, with me here, even if Bai Yueguang comes in person, I can protect you." Life."

  The leader of the Iron Wolf Gang was not appeased: "I know that seniors are excellent in martial arts, but we'd better be careful." He paused for a while.

   "Senior, we have agreed in advance, this time is just a test, if someone really comes, I will immediately let Shang Laojiu and others go."

   The ninth-rank master felt that he was underestimated, and said impatiently: "I know it well."

   Soon, the sand bandits who were ambushing at Tielangkou came running over: "Guangzhu, someone is here."

  The head of the Iron Wolf gang's complexion tightened: "Is someone really here?"

   Sand Bandit nodded: "There is indeed someone here, but...but it's a little girl, not Bai Yueguang and Black Lotus."

  Hearing this, the ninth-rank master immediately burst into laughter: "Fortunately, you are still the biggest sand robber in Rongcheng. Look at how a little girl scares you like this."

  The leader of the Iron Wolf Gang also felt ashamed, and immediately asked his subordinates to arrest him.

  Unfortunately, I waited and waited, my men went down four or five waves, but no one was caught, but none of my men came back.

  The ninth-rank master and the leader of the Iron Wolf Gang sensed something was wrong, looked at each other, and hurried to the Iron Wolf's mouth, and saw a slender figure standing with a sword in the distance.

  It was a little girl, about thirteen or fourteen years old, and the people who fell on the ground in front of her were all Sand Bandits sent to catch her.

   It should be the first time to kill someone. The little girl's complexion was a little pale, and the long sword in her hand was still trembling slightly.

"you"

  Looking at the dead subordinates, the leader of the Iron Wolf Gang was shocked and angry.

  Li Erya saw someone coming again, and immediately pointed at him: "Where are the people from Jiubian Trading Company?"

  Ninth-rank master stood up: "Who are you?"

  Li Erya ignored it: "Let him go!"

  Ninth-rank master smiled: "What if we don't let go?"

  Hearing this, Li Erya slowly raised her sword, and then, with a flash of her figure, she made a direct move.

   Move to kill!

  Ye Mo said when he taught her how to practice swordsmanship, if a swordsman doesn't move his sword, his throat will be blocked with blood.

  The leader of the Iron Wolf Gang was the first to be attacked by Li Erya, standing in front of the ninth-rank masters.

  Li Erya's sword, although lacking experience in fighting the enemy, was fast enough and deadly enough. The leader of the Iron Wolf Gang made less than ten moves in her hands, and a bloodstain appeared on her neck.

   Without any pause, Li Erya attacked the ninth-rank master again.

  The ninth-rank master who was still watching the show just now was frightened and terrified at the moment. Even he, the leader of the Iron Wolf Gang, couldn't kill him in ten moves, but the little girl in front of him actually did it.

  The two warring parties, in addition to competing in kung fu, are also competing in momentum.

  Ninth-rank masters fought and retreated because they were too shocked, while Li Erya was going straight ahead. At this moment, only Ye Mo's words were in her mind: You have to see blood to seal your throat when you strike the sword!

One back, one charge, the aura of a ninth-rank master was crushed in one fell swoop, even if he had more experience in battle, even if his kung fu was higher than Li Erya, but under the panic, the offensive would inevitably show flaws, This gave Li Erya a chance.

   After fighting nearly a hundred moves, Li Erya found a flaw in the ninth-rank master and wiped his neck with a sword.

  When Li Wuya and Li Qilang arrived after receiving the news, Tielangkou was still standing except for Li Erya, and everyone else fell to the ground.

  These people have one thing in common, that is, there is a red line on their necks.

   "Wuya, Qilang, you are here."

   "Sister, are you okay?"

  Seeing the wound on Li Erya's body, Li Wuya and Li Qilang both looked anxious.

   Li Erya really didn't care at all: "It's okay, it's just this guy, he's got a little better at it, and he stabbed him in the arm."

Li Wuya looked at the middle-aged man lying on his back on the ground with his eyes wide open and his face full of disbelief, and recognized that this man was one of the three ninth-rank masters of the Cui family, and there was some surprise on his face, exclaiming He looked at Li Erya in front of him.

  A master of the ninth grade of frontal hard steel, I thought the weakest sister was so fierce!

   "Shang Laojiu and those people should be locked up in the stockade, let's go up and rescue them."

"okay!"

   "Sister, I just realized that your swordsmanship has been practiced so well!"

  Li Erya smiled shyly: "There are still many shortcomings. Sometimes the sword is not fast enough and decisive enough. It is far from what Master Ye said, the throat will be sealed with blood as soon as the sword is struck."

  Li Wuya and Li Qilang couldn't help laughing when they heard this.

   "Sister, you are too demanding of yourself."

  Li Qilang suddenly said: "Second Sister, Fifth Sister and I both have names, do you want to get one for yourself?"

  Li Erya shook her head with a smile: "I don't know how to get a name."

  Li Wuya: "Second Sister, I think of one, Xuannv Sword, what do you think?"

  Li Qilang is very face-saving: "I think it sounds good."

  Li Erya smiled and did not object.

  Li Qilang: "Okay, we have White Moonlight, Black Lotus and Xuannv Sword in Anxiang Sect, plus brother, we are complete."
