Chapter 2 Longevity Lock (Minor Repair)

The autumn wind is rustling, cold and evil, and it blows people's chills.

As if the autumn wind had been poured into the spinal cord along the bone crevices, fine cold sweat broke out on Yang Dong's back.

The autumn wind is rustling, cold and evil, and it blows people's chills.

As if the autumn wind had been poured into the spinal cord along the bone crevices, fine cold sweat broke out on Yang Dong's back.

On the other side... there are archers in ambush!
At this time, he couldn't go up to the sky, and he couldn't get down to the ground. There was only a single log on the front, back, left, and right sides, and he was carrying a live donkey.

A truly invincible Jedi.

In the eyes of archers in the dark, they are simply living targets.

He blurted out: "Who?"

I don't know if he was overly frightened, but the sound was so hoarse and indistinct that he could hardly hear it himself.

At the same time, someone on the opposite side shouted, "Who are you?"

Yang Dong was shocked and angry. Because of his anger, he regained some energy and shouted with all his strength: "I didn't ask you, but you asked me? Why are you sneaking in the grass and plotting against your uncle! You ...Do you know that I am a righteous man in the court? Could it be that you are a ghost and demon to plot against a righteous man?"

At the end of his speech, his voice actually became quieter, and he suddenly thought: If he is really a yin demon, then what should we do?Can you still escape?
The other party sneered twice, and said: "Justice? What is a righteous man? At my lord's door, one brick thrown down can hit three. What's more, there are many liars pretending to be righteous these days. If you kill two chickens, you dare to kill them yourself." Over the beast."

Yang Dong was furious, and shouted: "Fart, I have the court certification! I have made meritorious service for the country! Your master... ah? Is your master a Heyang hero?"

The other party sneered and said, "Are you pretending to be stupid? What a little thief, do you think you can escape the crime of stealing if you don't know that I am a Heyang hero?"

Yang Dong was stunned, and stammered: "Steal? Me... Me?"

The other party said loudly: "Taking without telling is a thief! This mountain, the forest on the mountain, and the leaves on the forest, which one does not belong to our master Xue? You secretly felled the tree and got the stolen goods. How dare you argue?"

Yang Dong was in a state of confusion, and said, "I... I'm for building a bridge..."

The man sternly said: "The river in our master's house, why do you build a bridge? Did you get permission from our master? Just because you are a shitty righteous man? Our master is still a hero! If you don't pay compensation today, just leave some something."

Yang Dong is also from the Jianghu, so he naturally knew that "leaving something" did not refer to things outside his body. He was so angry that his veins burst out, but at this time he was in mid-air, pointing at someone with a bow and arrow. I've seen the style of the Hero Mansion. It's a pity that I have traveled thousands of miles to find him... How much do you want?"

When he said the words of confession, his heart immediately vented, and his strength also vented, and the donkey on his head felt heavy.But the donkey kept barking and struggling.He really wanted to throw this stubborn donkey into the ditch, but he didn't dare to move rashly, for fear of arousing the other party's vigilance.

The man said: "Don't talk about it, it seems that we have wronged you. Take one hundred taels of silver, and today I show mercy and let you go."

Yang Dong blurted out, "Why don't you go grab it?"

Immediately afterwards, he realized that the other party threatened violently and demanded property. Isn't this just robbery?
To say that in the rivers and lakes, there are always various dangers. It's not that he doesn't know the reason why there are green hills left, and he doesn't worry about having no firewood.If he has money, he will endure it if he bites his teeth and spends money to avoid disaster.

But really not.

One hundred taels of silver, say more or less, say less.You can buy dozens of acres of land, and you can live comfortably for a family of five for five years. You can go to the best restaurant to set up ten tables of swallow-wing banquets and add a few bottles of good wine.For some rich and powerful families, it may be a one-night affair.But Yang Dong is not from a wealthy family, martial arts training consumes a lot of money, traveling thousands of miles and spending money, at this moment, he really can't touch three or five taels of money.

The other party said: "This is already cheap for you. I see that you are very poor, so I specially gave you a discount. You are a righteous man, and you don't even have a hundred taels of silver? Then you don't have to think about going forward, Heyang Hero Mansion It’s not for poor ghosts like you.”

Embarrassed and extremely disappointed, Yang Dong murmured: "Does Heyang Hero's mansion also care about money? Didn't he say that he donated money with righteousness, and his righteousness is worthless?"

The other party sneered and said, "Poor ghosts are really delusional. I don't think you can come up with any money. Well, I'll give you another chance. If you stand there without moving, I'll shoot you with an arrow. It's over."

Yang Dong narrowed his gaze, staring at a cold light in the bushes.

It was an arrow, a sharp weapon for killing people.

His heart felt cold, and Yang Dong's tongue froze, he couldn't say "good", and he couldn't say "bad." When it comes to the spirit of the people in the rivers and lakes, he should go all out and scream, just like the execution ground The robber who yelled "Twenty years later will be a hero again", but he just doesn't have such courage, which is different from what he imagined himself.

The man urged: "Why, don't you dare? You don't have money if you want money, and you can't give up if you want to die. People like you are still roaming around in the rivers and lakes, and you haven't died until today. You are so lucky..."

Yang Dong only felt a ringing in his ears and dizziness for a while, his eyes slanted down, and just as he saw the deep ditch under his feet, he suddenly had an idea: it's better to fall headfirst, so as not to be so bullied.

At this time, a voice shouted loudly: "Don't force people too much! One hundred taels of silver, I... um..."

Before the words fell, the voice was cut off, as if someone had covered his mouth.

Yang Dong figured out that it was Tang Zhao who said it. He must have wanted to take over the debt, but the handlebar beside him stopped him.

He had mixed feelings for a moment, grateful, ashamed, and angry. It was directed at the young man: "That boy is willing to help me, why do you have to stop him?"Are you afraid that I won't pay back the money I owe?As long as I get rid of the temporary misfortune, I will definitely pay him back ten times, a hundred times!What are you afraid of?
The person on the opposite side suddenly smiled and said, "Hey, so there is a rich man here? Look at the rich man's outfit, that patch... Tsk tsk, is it a private visit from a white dragon fish suit or a micro-service?"

Tang Zhao, whose mouth was held tightly by Brother Sui, got out desperately, and said loudly, "I'm not a rich man! I don't have any money, you... how much do you think this thing is worth? If it's worth, I'll give it to you, don't force this righteous man He is a hero for the country and the people, he should not be persecuted to this extent!"

As he spoke, he unbuttoned the outer padded jacket, revealing a golden collar around his neck, with a longevity lock hanging from it, and the lock was inlaid with good quality white jade.

Longevity locks and necklaces are jewelry often worn by children, hoping that children will live a long life without disasters and diseases, embodying the heartfelt love of parents.

Tang Zhao rubbed his fingers on the collar, his fingertips trembled slightly, he tightly pursed his lips, looked up at the sky, and suppressed his reluctance.

Up to now, he didn't carry many things with him, and this one was both valuable and commemorative, even if he himself was in danger, he would not be willing to lose it.But...it was unbearable for him to watch a righteous man being forced to death.

It is only a moment to make a decision, maybe he will regret it tomorrow, but at this moment it is his inner choice.

Yang Dong turned his back to him, and couldn't see his expression, but he could hear the reluctance in the little scholar's voice. His blood surged up for a while, and he wanted to refuse, but in the face of the crisis related to his life, he couldn't forcefully spit out After the whole sentence, I felt extremely ashamed, and my face gradually turned purple.

The man in the shadows was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed, and said, "It seems like it's not always the case. Come here."

Tang Zhao was puzzled, and walked a few steps according to the words.

The man said: "Okay, just stand here. Turn your body sideways, yes—"

"laugh--"

The bowstring moves, the sharp arrow shoots out!
An arrow pierced through the air, shot through the clasp of the longevity lock more than ten feet away, and sank into the ginkgo forest with the golden lock.

Tang Zhao was completely dumbfounded, but Yang Dong was not. After all, he was considered a battle-hardened man. At this moment, he was so blessed that he shouted, raised his donkey and threw it towards the bushes!

It is true that the donkey was too heavy and barely fell on the bank, unable to hit the target, but it also disturbed the sight. Yang Dong drew out the knife with his backhand, strode across the bridge in a few strides, and only rushed at the bushes that made him stare at the bleeding !
puff--

A straight slash, like a broken bamboo!
With the blessing of his anger, this knife was sharper than the one that split the tree. It was a blow he had never had before. If that damned archer was still in the bushes, he would definitely be cut in two.

Unfortunately, no!
With a bang, it passed through the branches and leaves of the bushes, and the blade finally fell directly on the ground.There were only broken branches left on the ground, and no one was there.

Yang Dong roared unwillingly, raised his knife and slashed left and right, cutting the jungle to pieces, but he still didn't see the enemy, so he stuck the knife on the ground helplessly, panting.

After a while, he straightened up and shouted: "Come out! You have the ability to sneak attack, why don't you dare to let me face to face? Coward! Come on, your uncle, let's see if Grandpa doesn't take your head off !"

He yelled twice more, until his voice became hoarse, and then he took a break, still feeling inadequate, stomping on the underground branches with his feet.

When his breath calmed down, he turned around and saw Tang Zhao was still in a daze on the other side of the bridge, and shouted, "What are you doing? Haven't you picked up your things yet?"

Tang Zhao was not really in a daze, but was thinking back to the scene just now. This was the first time he saw the struggle between Jianghu and Jianghu after he just walked out of the study. He shot down my safety lock, he must want it. What if I go looking for it and meet him?"

Brother Sui wanted to go look for it just now, but he stopped him. The knife just now made him feel the real bloody wind, so he had to think more.

Yang Dong found that the child was very careful, and when he thought of the dog who was lying on the grass, he felt angry, raised his knife and said, "Go, I will accompany you to find it. If he doesn't come, it's fine. If he comes, call him!" He asked if my knife would agree or not."

Tang Zhaodao: "A righteous man doesn't need to be in a hurry..."

Yang Dong scolded: "Nonsense, do you think I'm really afraid of him? Let me tell you, I was attacked by him just now, and I was caught off guard. Now I'm on the ground one-on-one. Let's see the truth! I want to Tell him to repeat it to my knife, how much is a tree? If he still dares to say one hundred taels of silver, I will ask him how much his head is worth? Follow me.” After that, he crossed the bridge first and flew towards the arrow. place to find.

The three chased after the arrow, all the way to the ginkgo forest.

However, after all, the arrow has only one direction, and the distance is unknown.The huge forest is full of fallen leaves, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

The three of them searched separately, and searched for nearly two hours, but they still disappeared.

Seeing the sun slanting to the west, Tang Zhao knew that if he didn't say give up, everyone would be delayed in the mountains together, suppressing the reluctance in his heart, he straightened up and said, "No need to look for it. It must have been taken away by someone."

Yang Dong was angry, and punched the tree, saying: "It seems that the bastard took it. He is from Xue Daxia's residence. Let's go to Xue's residence, find Heyang Heyang to uphold justice, and ask him to pay it back. you."

Tang Zhao twirled a ginkgo leaf, exposing the layer of withered leaves underneath, exuding a rotten smell, and said, "Master Xue...is he the kind of person who can uphold justice?"

Yang Dong didn't have any confidence either, so he insisted, "Why not? Xue Daxia's great reputation...could it be fake? It's better to meet each other than to be famous. Xue's mansion is right in front of you, so you have to go and see it."

Tang Zhaoqiang cheered up and said, "The righteous man..."

Yang Dong waved his hand and said, "What kind of a righteous man is not a righteous man? It's too rare. You say I'm a righteous man, but I say you're a chivalrous man. My name is Yang Dong, what's your name?"

Tang Zhao cupped his hands and said, "Student Tang Zhao."

Yang Dong read it again, and said, "Is the soup the one that drank the soup? Which Zhao is Zhao?"

Tang Zhao regained his energy, and said, "Youth is appreciated, and the day shines brightly. The original meaning is the bright sunshine." He pointed to Brother Sui again, "This is Brother Sui, Sui Feng." Sui Feng bowed again and again.

Yang Dong nodded perfunctorily, and then praised Tang Zhao, saying: "After all, you are a scholar. What you say is all about anecdotes. But I think you are a real knight, no, you are more chivalrous than a real knight. Let's go, brothers Let's see if this hero Heyang is really a hero."

Tang Zhao stood up and said, "Brother Yang, tell me, is Daxia Xue really well-known in the world?"
