Chapter 171 Chief Qiao, You Are About to Solve the Case

"It is recorded in the gang that 30 years ago, a Khitan warrior wanted to sneak into the Central Plains, intending to steal the 72 unique skills of Shaolin Temple and bring them back to Khitan. At that time, the passionate warriors in the Khitan martial arts chose a leader to lead the 21 Central Plains masters. Ambush and kill Khitan warriors outside Yanmen Pass to prevent their plots."

Qiao Feng nodded his head when he heard the words, and said: "This matter is indeed no small matter. If the Khitan people are allowed to steal the 72 unique skills of Shaolin Temple and bring them back, it will be a disaster for the frontier soldiers of the Song Dynasty. , but prevented this disaster?"

After Qiao Feng finished speaking, he suddenly smiled, and continued: "I think it should have been stopped, otherwise the Song and Khitan would not have been the same scene in the past 30 years."

Yang Zongmin frowned slightly, and said: "The old incident 30 years ago, Li Gangzhu, is bringing up this matter now. Could it be that there is something hidden in it?"

"According to my guess, this matter is not as simple as imagined. According to the records in the Gang, the heroes of the Central Plains and the Khitan warriors fought in the dark. In the end, only four people escaped. Although the losses were heavy, they undoubtedly stopped the Khitan warriors. "Conspiracy" is such a great achievement, but no one knows about it, and there is not even a little rumor in the rivers and lakes. If it weren't for the internal records of the Fish and Dragons, I wouldn't even know that such a thing happened outside Yanmen Pass 30 years ago .”

"According to the memoirs of a senior in the gang, I deduce that the Khitan warriors back then were most likely Xiao Yuanshan, the chief instructor of the Khitan Xiao family, who belonged to Shan's tent, and his master." Zhang Xiu looked at Yang Zongmin and said in a deep voice. Said: "It is likely to be Yang Yanhui, the fourth general of the Yang family."

Yang Zongmin didn't speak immediately when he heard the words, Yang Silang is the son-in-law of the Liao Kingdom, and everyone knows this
Qiao Feng listened with great enthusiasm. General Yang was his idol, and he had always admired him very much. Now he listened with great enthusiasm. Seeing that Zhang Xiu had stopped talking, he couldn't help but ask, "What's the secret behind this?"

And Yang Zongmin frowned suddenly, and said: "You just said that it was a senior's memoir and your inference. How did you infer it? What evidence do you have?"

Zhang Xiu opened his eyes and said nonsense: "This senior in my gang once saw a huge stone engraved with Khitan characters outside Yanmen Pass, and the inscription was Xiao Yuanshan's last handwriting. This senior is not very proficient in Khitan characters, but I can barely understand the meaning of it, which once said that Yu Shiye's mentor was a Han from the Southern Dynasty."

"Is that all?" Yang Zongmin asked.

Zhang Xiu smiled and said: "The senior left a record, and once said: The thing recorded on the boulder is that a man named Xiao Yuanshan led his family to his grandmother's house when his son was one year old. When he was going to a banquet, he was ambushed by the Han people when he was passing by the Yanmen Pass, and his wife and son were killed. Therefore, he was unwilling to continue to live in the world, and because his mentor was a Han Chinese in the Song Dynasty, and he made a vow in front of his master. I made an oath not to kill Han people, I didn’t want to kill more than a dozen in a row today, I was sad and ashamed, and I didn’t have the face to see my mentor after death, so I jumped off a cliff and committed suicide. This is roughly the story.”

Zhang Xiu looked at the two and said: "This record is not the same as the ambush of Khitan warriors in the Central Plains Wulin. It's just that when I sorted out the data, I found that both of them happened outside the Yanmen Pass 30 years ago. I thought, maybe this is actually true. It's a thing."

Qiao Feng suddenly felt a pain in his heart, as if the arrow wound had ruptured, and after secretly adjusting his breath, he said in a deep voice: "The Central Plains Wulin ambushed Khitan warriors. Xiao Yuanshan was ambushed. The Central Plains Wulin dispatched 21 masters, and finally four survived. Xiao Yuanshan has killed more than a dozen Central Plains masters in a row, which is indeed worthy of him."

Yang Zongmin thought for a while, and then followed up: "Those people in the Jianghu didn't publicize this matter afterwards, so there is no news about it in the Jianghu. Could it be that they also knew the truth. Did they kill innocent people by mistake?"

Qiao Feng thought for a while and said: "Even though Xiao Yuanshan should be killed as the personal commander of Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom, the mother and son are innocent people."

Dongfang Bubai was very interested and ended up talking, said: "To cut the weeds, we must get rid of the roots. If we let the mother and son go, Xiao Yuanshan's son will learn peerless martial arts in the future, so what if he wants to avenge his father?"

This kind of question, which has always been able to drive heroes to death, is also very effective for Qiao Feng, so he couldn't speak at that time.

"I came here this time because I want to go out and see the authentic works recorded on this boulder." Zhang Xiu looked at Qiao Feng and Yang Zongmin, and said, "Do you want to go together?"

Qiao Feng nodded in a strange way, and said, "Go."

Yang Zongmin was because Xiao Yuanshan seemed to be his senior brother and had a close relationship with the Yang family. As a descendant of the Yang family, he should take a look and nodded, "Go together."

Everyone didn't hesitate, they brought fast horses, and traveled lightly. Only Yang Zongmin led a team of guards and headed north after leaving the city.

The horses are all good horses, and it takes less than half an hour to get there for thirty miles.The people tied up their horses at the foot of the mountain and walked up the mountain, but they saw that the east and west mountains were steep and steep, and the middle road was winding and rugged, it was indeed a dangerous place.

A few steps away from the mountain road, there is a deep valley, but the valley is covered by clouds and mist, and the depth is bottomless.

Qiao Feng glanced down, and said in his heart: "Good guy, can you still live after jumping? It can be seen that Xiao Yuanshan must have been heartbroken at that time."

On the right side is the huge rock that "Li Huaishu" said. When everyone looked at it, their faces became unnatural. I saw that the mountain wall was naturally smooth and smooth, but on the middle of a large rock, it was full of The chisel marks are obvious. Someone deliberately cut off the left handwriting, but some handwriting can still be seen vaguely, which proves that it has indeed been portrayed here.

Seeing this, Yang Zongmin sighed, and said: "If there really was an inscription of Xiao Yuanshan here, and now it has been cut away, does that prove that Xiao Yuanshan was indeed wronged by the warriors of the Central Plains, in order not to let this matter When the matter was exposed, not only did they not mention it, they even erased the traces here. It can be seen that their guilty conscience is that they don't know who these people who ambushed Xiao Yuanshan here back then were."

Qiao Feng thought about it for a while, and said: "There should not be many people who are qualified to know about the invasion of Khitan warriors and who were masters in the martial arts 30 years ago; and since the information they received was that Khitan warriors stole Taking Shaolin Temple's 72 stunts, Qiao Mou thinks that those who ambushed Xiao Yuanshan back then were probably masters from Shaolin Temple; Shaolin sent out masters, so it is impossible for us beggars to stand by and watch. Perhaps the first teacher Wang Gangzhu was one of the four people who survived that year It's a pity that the first teacher has passed away, otherwise I can ask to understand."

Hearing Qiao Feng's analysis, Zhang Xiu said bluntly, good guy, it really was hatred that forced his eyes to stand at the point of view of a bystander, isn't this the soundness of the analysis?

The case is almost solved.
