Waves at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 8 Confrontation
After chasing for a while, Ouyang Chong saw the running figure stop in front of him. This is an open area in the forest with sparse trees, and the sun shone in unscrupulously without any cover.

Walking into the light and shadow, he gradually saw the other person's face clearly. He had a square face, big ears, a plain robe and a white scarf on his head. The moment their fierce eyes touched, they unconsciously clenched the weapons in their hands. He felt that it was difficult to explain clearly, but At the same time, both quietly told the two that each other was in danger, and the eerie silence in the surrounding dense forest gradually dissipated, and the sunlight marked out a fighting field for the two, without any words, without reporting each other's names, hometowns and official positions, only the rising killing intent.
Slightly adjusted his breath, Ouyang Chong rushed towards the swordsman in front with a tiger step. He found that although the opponent's aura was good, he didn't have that kind of arrogance, so he wanted to use his own strength to suppress the opponent first. Quick battle, after all, I was in a hurry to enter the forest just now, and the spear can't be used here. Only this crappy ring sword, and the opponent is dressed as a swordsman and ranger. Coincidentally.
Ouyang clashed until one step away before raising the knife. The sharp blade pierced through the air and made a whirring sound, but it slashed in the empty space. The swordsman stepped aside at a faster speed.But he didn't stop, his right foot drove his shoulders and kicked hard, his body turned to the left, the knife in his hand was already gripped horizontally, and he quickly drew an arc and slashed at the swordsman.

There was a muffled sound. Seeing that the swordsman did not dodge but calmly bowed his steps and raised his sword to block, Ouyang Chong was proud of himself. Using the rebound force of the sword collision, he turned around in the opposite direction and adjusted the blade for another horizontal chop. Pushing forward with force, he leaped high, holding the knife in both hands and chopping down with all his strength.
After three muffled sounds in a row, the swordsman took three steps back, stabilized his body in a bit of embarrassment, but clasped his fists and laughed, "A strong man is indeed very brave, and such a bad blade can have such power in your hands. A certain one is definitely invincible. Hahaha".

"Hahaha, I'm afraid that brother didn't use his full strength. I don't know why brother has such martial arts skills, so why did he commit himself to Xiao Nanshan to be a thief?" Seeing that the other party saw that he was not good at using a knife, and there was no intention of forcing him to fight again, I am afraid that the other party just now I did it deliberately to test my own strength. I couldn't even see his steps clearly. This person must be flexible and elegant in swordsmanship. I'm afraid there are many variables in fighting him here, so I also borrowed down the steps.

"The strong man really misunderstood. I am Wang Yue, a Luoyang ranger. I have traveled here and saw thieves doing harm. I wanted to help. I didn't want the strong man to take the first step. I just don't know where the strong man is. He also lives here because of his accent." Wang Wang Yue still smiled boldly.

"Well, that's how it is. That's offended by someone. Someone is Fan Chong and Fan Ziying of the Fan family in Wu County. He also traveled here. Today is also destined. Why don't Brother Wang and someone go to a wine shop in Huang County to have a drink." Seeing what Wang Yue said In fact, I found out that he was secretly observing in the forest and not trying to rescue others, so I pretended to deal with it. My guards will arrive soon, and I will take advantage of it and drag this person into the city to deal with it.

"It turned out to be a young hero of the Fan family in Wu County. Thank you Wang for your kindness, but I have been away for a long time and I am eager to go home. If there is a destiny, I will see you again someday, so I will leave."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Huangxian Huaxia Restaurant is still the room on the top floor. This is the place with the highest banquet level in the entire Huangxian County. Gao seldom used it at ordinary times. Ouyang Jun stood by the window with his hands behind his back and stared at the sheriff's mansion. The four thieves lurking outside were caught and killed, and they are rushing to Gongsun Manor to intercept the rest of the thieves."

"Okay, there's no need to talk about such trivial matters." Ouyang Jun waved his hand impatiently and said.

"It's just that I sent someone to report to the young master that he found that there was a young man who practiced martial arts among the people Chen Wentian brought. It’s impossible to fight against it.”

"Oh? This is a bit interesting. Brother Chong can't beat him with his strength. It's really not to be underestimated, um. I know that, so Zhang Bao hasn't arrived yet in Taiping Dao?"

Just as Fan Jie was about to reply, a servant came up to report that Daoist Zhang of Taiping Road had arrived.

"I've heard about the three sages of Taiping a long time ago, and now I can see Daoist Zhang, he really looks like a fairy." Ouyang Jun turned around when he saw Zhang Bao went upstairs and cupped his fists in a casual salute. He didn't intend to go forward to greet him. It was the first time that the high-level leaders of the two sides met, and he believed that distinguishing the priorities of the two parties was the first topic this time.

"Hahaha, gods don't dare to say it. The three poor brothers are just used to the bleakness of the world, and they often pray with the congregation for the early arrival of a peaceful world. People in the world often think that if the Dragon King is still alive, the world will not be so tired , Now I can see the young master of Longwei Mansion, so I know what Qianlong is in the abyss." Zhang Baocan's brows and white beard are dressed in kudzu clothes, which are extremely clean from top to bottom, giving people a sense of immortality.Although he uttered the words calmly, the meaning in his words is indeed astonishing, he said in his heart that my Taipingdao is indeed planning a great rebellion, but your Longwei Mansion is also a criminal of the imperial court, although your Longwei Mansion is famous, but time has passed Although my Taiping Dao started from a stove, it has thousands of believers, and everyone is just the same.
"Hahaha, Master Zhang is so confident, there must be plenty of talents in the Tao, and our mansion is far behind. We can only stay dormant in the sea for many years and cannot enter." Ouyang Jun raised his hand to signal the guards and Fan Jie who followed. Suppressing his anger, he replied with a smile.They are all rebels, and the foundation is what matters. If I can't succeed, I can retreat to Yizhou without worry. If you don't succeed, you will die. The most important thing is that if you don't have the military resources in my family to support you in Taipingdao How come today's situation and how can we talk about tomorrow's period? Do you want to be on an equal footing with me? It's ridiculous.

"The young master was joking. The three of the poor and the Daoist have already agreed that in this life, the Longwei Mansion is the only one to follow. Please don't have any doubts, the young master." After Zhang Bao finished speaking, he bowed solemnly.Just like the way men deal with their wives in later generations, first make up something more outrageous and tell it together with their own mistakes, and then confess the lie when the wife is extremely angry. It's like getting angry when you commit a crime, Zhang Bao knows that the effect has been achieved by looking at Ouyang Jun's expression, and rushes to offer all kinds of flattery and flattery without money, as long as the later talks get more dry goods, so what if you don't have morals.
"Renren Zhang's praise is too much, but I don't know if Taipingdao has thought carefully about what I mentioned earlier?"

"The young master's remarks are generally not harmful, but the time of the incident may be postponed for several years. At present, the Taoism is flourishing, and the momentum will be huge after a few years. In addition, Jizhou, Qingzhou, and Yanzhou are the origins of the Taiping Tao. Land, Duckweed sentient beings have recited Huang Tian’s righteousness for a long time, I’m afraid it’s inconvenient to hand it over to the young master, and the rest of the states will give to Longwei Mansion if they have any income, and there will be a proportion of the property returned.”

"Hmph, I'm afraid Zhang Zhenren is joking."

"Poverty Taoism never smiles. I teach millions of people to have the same mind, to create a peaceful world, and the heavens have mercy on me! Before that, there have been several celebrities and wealthy families who are deeply moved. I am willing to help, if so." Zhang Bao beat After cutting off Ouyang Jun's words, he looked at the uncontrollable shocked and angry expression on his face and said with a smile.

"You don't make sense."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the unknown forest in the east of Huang County, the sky is getting dark, and all kinds of insects and beasts in the forest are also active. Surrounded by primitive sounds, there will be no good atmosphere.Fortunately, I found this place on the first day I came here. There are boulders on three sides. As long as some trees are cut down and built on the top, and then a fire is built, it can barely guarantee that everyone can rest, but even so, after a few days, Qin Hu and others looked like Still very embarrassed, but fortunately there will be a break tonight.

"Is there no news from the three-headed leader?" Qin Hu said while holding his mountain axe. This ax that his father forged for him when he was 20 years old is almost 20 years old now.

"Report to the boss, there is no news!" The sentinel replied quickly when he heard it, the boss seemed to be in a bad mood, and he didn't want to be in trouble.

The shed was quiet again, and everyone was waiting for Qin Hu to make a decision.The past few days have been smooth sailing, and the information that needs to be inquired has been mastered. I don’t want to do it tonight, but there have been changes. The people who exchanged news with He Jiao have never been seen. Although these people are thieves, they were actually Nanshan in the early years Although the nearby farmers were ruthless when they robbed, this time they were at the foot of the county mansion after all, and their number was small, so they panicked when they heard that the situation was wrong.

Qin Hu didn't seem to be aware of everyone's waiting, but was immersed in his own world. He Jiao has always been reliable in his work and loyal to himself, so he was promoted to be the third leader. If there is no news at the last moment, something must have happened. Hey, it's time to choose again.
When there was a severe drought in his hometown, the only source of water was controlled by the big households in the village who recruited private soldiers and colluded with the county magistrate to build a dam. When everyone was preparing to revolt in order to survive, he had another choice, which was to lead the village to retake the water source from the big households , or deigned to go to Dahu Village to be a guard leader, he chose the former without hesitation, and thus made it to today step by step.

Of course, he made a lot of choices during this process, so many that he couldn't remember them all. "Alliance", just like he chose to pretend to take refuge after meeting the disciple of the great virtuous teacher, just like this time.
Did I choose the wrong one? Why is it so difficult to deal with a young man who has no foundation? At first, in order to get rid of Cui Jing, who was in the way, he found an excuse to expand the territory. With such a big basket, people will die!So for the sake of his prestige and face, in order to make his subordinates continue to obey orders obediently, and in order to give an explanation to the Taipingdao who sent Cui Jing, he had to confront this young man again.
Just when the sky was about to turn dark, Qin Hu made a decision to go back to the village first to make a long-term plan. Anyway, he will still be in the dark in the future, and the other party will be in the light. There will be more opportunities.So everyone quickly packed up and left the forest from the northwest.

Just when the crowd was about to enter a narrow crossing formed by two hills, they suddenly heard a hearty laughter, and then saw this man leading five well-equipped white horse knights holding torches to block the way. The person in question is Ouyang Chong.

"Hahahaha, as expected, Wentian was right. Leader Qin still chose to back down. Now that you're here, just submit obediently. I won't hand you over to the Sheriff's Mansion." Ouyang Chong was still riding on the shocking cloud He said with a smile, and his approval of Chen Wentian in his heart also increased a bit.

"Hehe, I have to make a choice again, let's choose from my heart this time, the little ones will rush to kill this person and go back to the village!" Qin Hu shouted, dragging his big ax backwards and rushing forward first. Out of the crowd, they rushed towards the place illuminated by the torches raised by the guards behind Ouyang Chong, and the rest of the thieves also rushed over shouting when they saw this
Before rushing out a few steps, he only heard the sound of "thump, thud, thump" after the collision of hanging knives, and the sound of crossbow arrows plowing into the flesh all around Qin Hu, and the people he was leading fell down nearly ten people in a short time , everyone's killing intent disappeared, only the wailing of the wounded remained.

Qin Hu held the handle of the ax tightly, panting heavily. Just now he swung the ax to block two crossbow arrows, but he was still hit by one of his left calf, and the arrow had pierced through the flesh and was bleeding profusely.Sure enough, the choice was wrong, maybe it was always wrong. "Hahahaha, come on, here is Qin's head, come and take it, hahahaha"

Ouyang Chong nodded, raised his spear and exerted force on his legs, Jing Yun then knowingly galloped towards the laughing Qin Hu, "That's very good, I'm here!"

Running to the front, although Ouyang Chong's charged blow from the long spear was blocked by the mountain axe, the force of the shot made the seriously injured Qin Hu fall to the ground. Looking at the dying Qin Hu and the sluggish thieves around him, Ouyang Chong thought for a while. Thinking about it, he ordered: "Take this person to the camp for medical treatment, and the rest will be tied up and brought back."
