A knife in love

Chapter 148

In the early morning of the next day, the great lama brought all the lamas to serve steamed buns and porridge to Qunhao. Qunhao was full and packed up his things and prepared to leave.A few impatient people have already pushed the door and left first.

Liu Yong led the Huashan faction to find Li Qiufeng, and the two expressed their intentions of parting, but they were reluctant to part.At this moment, a commotion was heard in the yard.Liu Yong was taken aback, and said, "Why are there disputes again at this time?"

I saw someone running back staggeringly outside the temple gate, shouting loudly while running: "There are officers and soldiers outside, we are surrounded!"

Li Qiufeng's heart skipped a beat, and he walked into the yard side by side with Liu Yong and others.Qunhao was not surprised when he heard that the officers and soldiers had arrived.Someone even said with a smile: "What's so great about the officers and soldiers? It's okay to bully the common people. When they meet us, we can only say that they are unlucky!"

I saw a man running back was shot in the left shoulder by an arrow, and he couldn't hold on as soon as he ran to the middle of the yard, and fell to the ground.Liu Yong rushed forward to help him up, checked his injuries and asked, "What happened outside?"

The man said: "After our brothers left the temple gate, we just walked more than ten feet away, and found someone in the woods. They were officers and soldiers. We didn't care. When we were about to leave, the officers and soldiers asked us to go back. Listen, the officers and soldiers started shooting arrows, and I ran back with all my might, but those brothers don't know what happened..."

Liu Yong pulled out a long arrow for this man, applied the wound medicine, put the arrow in his hand and watched it carefully, frowned and said to Li Qiufeng: "It seems that the officers and soldiers have been prepared for a long time. Surrounded by them."

An old man from the Kunlun sect said: "We now have six to seven hundred people, and all of them are not weak in martial arts. Are we afraid that these wine bags and rice bags will fail?"

Liu Yong shook his head and said: "Officers and soldiers are not all wine bags and rice bags." As he spoke, he handed the arrow in his hand to the old man, and the old man took the arrow, and saw "Shanhaiguan General Army System" engraved on the shaft of the arrow. , so he raised his head and said to Liu Yong: "What does this mean?"

Liu Yong said: "The people outside the temple are not ordinary officers and soldiers, they are the army under the command of the general army of Shanhaiguan. This is the frontier army of the imperial court, extremely aggressive. I just can't figure out why the army from Shanhaiguan came to this place. There is no imperial edict to dispatch troops. It is a capital crime for the frontier army to trespass into the interior, not to mention it is so close to the capital."

Li Qiufeng asked the injured man, "How many officers and soldiers are there outside?"

After the man applied the wound medicine, the pain subsided slightly, and he was not as panicked as before, and said to Li Qiufeng: "The officers and soldiers are hiding in the woods, and we didn't see clearly, but the arrows were shot from three directions. , there are quite a few people here.”

Li Qiufeng turned his head and said to Liu Yong: "This place should be under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Mausoleum defenders. There must be a reason why the Shanhaiguan army came here. I'll go outside the temple and ask Mr. Liu to restrain all the friends in the world."

Liu Yong was a little worried, and said to Li Qiufeng: "Li Shaoxia, the frontier army is no better than the defenders of the capital and the imperial tomb, so be careful."

Li Qiufeng nodded and said, "This Li will be careful."

Murong Danyan saw that Li Qiufeng was going to be alone again in danger, so he rushed up and said, "Brother Li, I'll go with you."

Li Qiufeng shook his head and said, "I'm here to see why these officers and soldiers came here, not to fight, you should stay here."

Murong Danyan wanted to say more, but Li Qiufeng waved his hand, and immediately walked out of the temple gate.Murong Danyan was anxious, and was about to catch up quickly, but Liu Yong stopped her, and said in a deep voice: "Young Xia Li is right. He went out to inquire about the news, not to fight with others. With his martial arts, even if something happened It's not difficult to get out, but it's a bit inconvenient to bring a girl with you."

Murong Danyan had no choice but to stop, suddenly remembered something, and said to Liu Yong: "Mr. Liu, how do you know that I am a woman?"

Liu Yong was startled, then smiled awkwardly, thinking: "Your voice and demeanor, and your body smells like powder, you are obviously a young woman, who wouldn't be able to tell?" But he didn't know what to say, so he had to silent.

Murong Danyan was still puzzled, and asked: "How can Mr. Liu see that I have changed into a man's clothes? It's really strange."

Someone in the crowd laughed and said, "Not only Mr. Liu can tell, but we also knew that you are a girl. Haha, haha."

Everyone was amusing and laughed, Murong Danyan blushed, but he was too embarrassed to ask further questions, so he stepped aside and hid behind Ma Dongqing.

After Li Qiufeng left the temple gate, he saw three people lying on the ground, each of them was hit by several feather arrows, but luckily they didn't hurt their vitals, they were lying or sitting on the ground moaning.Li Qiufeng walked forward quickly, helped several people to the gate of the temple, and said to them: "You retreat into the temple, and Mr. Liu will heal your wounds."

After these people entered the temple, Li Qiufeng walked forward slowly, until he reached the edge of the forest, he stopped and said loudly: "I don't know which general is in charge of the army, can you come out and meet?"

At this moment, just hearing the sound of a gong in the woods, countless officers and soldiers stood up tens of feet away, bent their bows and set up arrows, aiming at Li Qiufeng.

Li Qiufeng said: "The general leading the team, please speak up."

I only heard someone from the opposite side say: "Who are you, dare to talk to our general?"

Li Qiufeng said: "I am Li Qiufeng from a hundred households of Jinyiwei." As he spoke, he took out the waist badge of Jinyiwei from his pocket and held it in his hand.

After a while, only the sound of horseshoes was heard, and three horsemen and horses came slowly behind the officers and soldiers.The man wearing the armor at the front was the same Feng Zongbing who he had seen in the old shop of the Gu family.

Li Qiufeng said: "It turned out to be Zongbing Feng. After leaving Yong'an City for a few days, I didn't expect Zongbing Feng to come here again."

General Feng smiled slightly, and said, "I've seen you before, but I didn't expect you to be Jin Yiwei. We were ordered to come here to arrest people, why are you here?"

Li Qiufeng said slowly: "You are the garrison of Shanhaiguan. If you come here to take people without authorization, I'm afraid it's not in accordance with the regulations of Ming Dynasty. If Li Mou goes to play Commander, I'm afraid Zongbing Feng will be in trouble."

General Feng laughed loudly and said, "Young man has a big tone. Do you think that when the late emperor was here, your Jin Yiwei called the wind and rain, and framed ministers at will? After you ascended the throne today, you took away the right of Jin Yiwei's secret performance, you Do you think I don't know?"

Li Qiufeng said: "Even the current emperor will not tolerate the frontier troops entering the interior without permission. The last one who did this was Li Huawen, the general of the Xuanfu, but he and his thirteen generals were beheaded outside the Meridian Gate. The first nine sides. Feng Zongbing, do you want to follow in Li Huawen's footsteps?"

As soon as he said this, Feng Zongbing's face changed drastically, and the soldiers who bent their bows and arrows looked at each other, and secretly lowered their bows and arrows a little.

Li Qiufeng said: "No matter what you, Mr. Feng, have done, you have already committed a serious crime. It just depends on what you do next, whether it can be offset by your crime."

Feng Zongbing laughed and said: "Sure enough, a hero is born in a young age, I admire, admire."

Li Qiufeng said: "It's better to ask Master Liu to come out."

Zongbing Feng was slightly taken aback, and said, "Which Master Liu?"

Li Qiufeng said: "The matter has come to this point, why bother to cover it up?"

At this moment, an old voice said: "Yanqing, you can't hide it from him."

As soon as the words fell, Feng Zongbing and others hurriedly got off their horses and stood with their hands down.An old man with white beard and hair came out of the woods. It was Liu Kang who went to Gu's old shop to retire the five elders of Mount Tai that day.It's just that he is no longer as old as that day, his eyes are piercing, and he said to Li Qiufeng: "I've been looking for you for the past few days, and I finally didn't misunderstand the person."

Li Qiufeng cupped his hands and said: "Master Liu is really clever, I thought of so many ways, but I was still stopped by you."

Liu Kang smiled slightly and said, "You should call me uncle."

Li Qiufeng shook his head and said, "It's better to call you Master Liu."

Liu Kang said: "Did your master teach you to do this?"

Li Qiufeng said: "He didn't say it, it was Li's own decision."

Liu Kang stared at Li Qiufeng, and said after a while: "I asked you to come to the capital to help me that day, maybe it was a big mistake I made."

Li Qiufeng said: "I came to the capital to help you that day, it was a big mistake I made."

Liu Kang sighed, and said: "Right and wrong in the world, right and wrong, how can you make it clear in a short time? I have to gamble once. If I win, everyone will be happy. If I lose, I will kill everyone. Zhu Lian Jiu Clan. Li Baihu, what do you think?"

Li Qiufeng said: "Master Liu, are you threatening me with my master?"

Liu Kang shook his head and said, "No, I'm threatening you with the lives of the Liu family! Not only your master's life, but mine as well."
