On How to Correctly Seek Vengeance from the Sick Beauty

From the unnamed town in the frontier to the ruins of Sichuan, you need to climb the snow-capped mountains all the way. Because it is autumn, there will be no snowstorms. Everyone has a smooth journey. Geng Bian is worthy of joining the army at a young age. He has a lot of knowledge, he knows most of the topography and landforms when he passes by, and he has gained a lot of insight for Shen Lingyuan.

The speed of the wolves pulling the sleigh was faster than expected, but within a day, Shuyipo’s closing gate was close at hand. After passing through the long snowy field, the wolf field of Shuyipo was in sight. One soldier and three wolves, They lined up to go back to the nest in an orderly manner, and there was another wave of soldiers waiting outside the circle leading the horses.

Geng Bian saluted Shen Lingyuan, "Young Master, Geng Bian can only send you here, and we will see you in Guanzhong in two days."

Shen Lingyuan followed suit, "Join the army hard all the way."

After bidding farewell to Geng Bian, Shen Lingyuan changed horses with the others. Because it was not easy to raise horses in the snowy field, Shen Yanqing and his party of fifty or so people entered Shuyi Pass in two batches. Shen Lingyuan was the second batch. Night came early, and it was already night when they entered the pass.

In order to hurry, everyone had been blowing the cold wind all day, except for Shen Yanqing who was invited by Tang Hao to a banquet at home, the rest followed the soldiers to the vacated stone house to rest.

Together, the brothers agreed that Shen Lingyuan should recuperate when he recovered from a serious illness, so he was allowed to live in a room by himself. Shen Lingyuan didn't refuse if he could only wish for it, and lived alone in the first room, as he said.

It is convenient to escape in the future.

Although the conditions in the northern border were not as good as Xinxia, ​​they were better than reality. Several commanders and soldiers all went to the prefect’s residence to have a drink, and the rest of the soldiers gathered together, set up a pile of firewood and cooked a whole pot of delicious mutton soup. , Two corn buns plus a bowl of soup, not only filled the stomach, but also warmed the whole body, not afraid of the coming long night at all.

After eating and drinking enough, Shen Lingyuan went back to his room to get ready to rest.

There was no charcoal basin in the stone house, but Shen Lingyuan didn't feel a trace of cold. He thought it was a good insulation, but after turning off the lights and lying on the bed, he realized that the 'bed' was actually hot.

Presumably this should be the legendary kang. Shen Lingyuan lay on the kang and fumbled for a while, thinking about how the kang became hot, when there was a knock on the door outside.

Shen Lingyuan sat up, "Who?"

"Brother, I'm here to teach you how to burn the kang at night. I won't go in after you turn off the lights. I'll come here to tell you that there is a stove at the top of the room for heating. From now on, as long as you burn two bundles of kang before going to bed The wood can guarantee heating for one night, and if you are still cold, you can also go to the army to register and get a pot of charcoal fire back."

Shen Lingyuan shouted towards the door: "I see, thank you."

The soldiers outside also responded loudly: "You are welcome, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."

"No delivery."

When the footsteps at the door gradually faded away, Shen Lingyuan felt a little relieved, lay down, and gradually fell asleep.

Night, Tang Hao's residence.

The black charcoal in the brazier was still sizzling. Tang Hao was wearing a white undershirt with one leg tucked under the quilt and the other hanging on the edge of the bed. He looked sleepily at the human being in front of him and said, "It's so late, why don't you join the army and come here?" What are you going to do?"

The person who came was Geng Bian who sent Shen Lingyuan into the pass during the day.

I saw Geng Bian took off his cloak and black hat, bowed and said, "Prefect, I heard that you agreed with Marquis Changxing's strategy to defend against the enemy at the banquet today?"

"Yeah." Tang Hao yawned sleepily, as if thinking of something, he raised his hand, "Oh, don't worry about joining the army, the prefect has ordered the snow mountain mine to be sealed with huge stones, even if they go to the snow mountain It will never be discovered. Moreover, Shen Yanqing's plan is very subtle. If we can really find a passage from Buried Bone Snow Mountain to create an avalanche and go straight to the barbarian camp, then no one will be able to stop our way of making money in the future. Don't you think this is a matter? Is it a good thing?"

"Hey, why didn't the old man think of opening up snow mountains before?" Tang Hao stroked his beard, looking like he was dreaming.

Geng Bian clasped his hands in front of his lower abdomen, rolled his eyes and said: "Prefect, this plan is indeed feasible, but this is not what this subordinate wants to report."

Tang Hao came back to his senses and leaned over to put on his shoes: "Oh? Then what's the point of joining the army and coming here?"

Geng Bian stepped forward and whispered something in Tang Hao's ear.

Tang Hao was very surprised after hearing this, and stood up: "What did you say? The person you carried today is Shen Lingyuan, the son of Marquis Changxing who is wanted by the court? Are you sure?"

Geng Bian nodded very resolutely: "It's true, prefect, although that man has a scar on his eye, his features are almost exactly the same as the portrait that Master Leng Ye sent over a month ago. He wouldn’t come to our Shu Yipo even if he escaped for his life, but he didn’t expect to come here. Prefect, if we catch him, we can hope to leave this bitter cold place!”

Tang Hao stood and hesitated for a while: "But the old man thinks it's inappropriate to rely on just a portrait."

Geng Bian moved his eyes and stepped forward to continue to persuade: "Hey, prefect, haven't you heard a sentence?"

"It's better to kill by mistake than let it go!" Geng Bian's eyes seemed to be shining.

"This... let me think about it." Tang Hao paced back and forth in the room.

Geng Bian smiled and nodded, his eyes followed Tang Hao back and forth, but his face was determined to win.

Sure enough, Tang Hao stopped and came to Geng Bian, and grabbed his shoulder, "Is there a clever way to join the army?"

"Of course there are." Geng Bian's villain got his wish, "If the prefect doesn't believe that he is Shen Lingyuan, we can try to design it. My lord, I remember that you have a Yanyue knife that you cherish very much..."

Everyone lived here for two days. Shen Lingyuan learned from Pirates that Tang Hao had decided to adopt his method, and had already sent people to the Bone Snow Mountain to explore the way. Fight to the death.

However, Shen Lingyuan had no interest in this war, he just wanted to find an opportunity to sneak into the Bone Snow Mountain to find fellow soldiers.

It was not so early in the morning, and Shen Lingyuan woke up at exactly [-]:[-], with the residual warmth still under his body, Shen Lingyuan couldn't help sighing in his heart, this kang is really a good thing.

Although the bed was warm, Shen Lingyuan still got up to practice martial arts as usual. By the way, he also wanted to go out for a walk and ask the soldiers here about the situation of the Buried Bone Snow Mountain.

As the name suggests, the Slope Land of the Shu Remains is a steep slope in the mountains. The ancestors of Dong Lin built a solid city wall here to isolate the foreign races in the northeast.

In addition to the normal defensive buildings in the pass, there are also two school grounds in the north and south for the strong soldiers on weekdays.

Shen Lingyuan wanted to visit the school grounds today.

Although it was not too far from the homestay to the school grounds, Shen Lingyuan wanted to appreciate the snowy scenery of Guansai, so it took him a full quarter of an hour to get there. To his surprise, there were already people in the south school grounds.

I saw a few soldiers encircling a long knife in amazement. Shen Lingyuan recognized the knife as the first-grade Yanyue among the long-handled knives. It had an iron shaft like a long spear. And sharpness is a sharp weapon in the hands of cavalry. Those who use this knife well can retreat half a foot away from the enemy.

But the one in the school field is obviously the best of the knives, and the blade is still glowing faintly.

A few soldiers yelled, and some people were eager to try.

One of them stood on the stone, it was Shen Lingyuan's old acquaintance, Geng Bian.

"Brothers, you have caught up today. Our prefect said that whoever can use this knife to swing the phoenix wings in the eighth style of Yanyue can make a wish to our prefect! No matter if you get promoted or get rich..."

A soldier underneath made trouble for Geng Bian with ill intentions: "Join the army, I want to marry a wife, okay?"

Geng Bian took a look at the elder brother, and was happy: "Okay! If you can successfully wipe out the aliens outside the pass this time, I, Geng Bian, will personally match you and let the prefect organize your wedding with the girl Linghua from Wuming Town!"

It seemed that this old man was quite famous for his emotional debts, and the rest of the soldiers immediately turned against him and followed Geng to make noises. Several people yelled, yelled, and surrounded the master who wanted to marry a wife to try the knife first.

The elder brother was ashamed of being praised, and he was struggling in his heart. He quickly stepped forward and pulled out the knife. Unfortunately, he just swung the Yanyue knife and slashed it without any rules. With palpitations, he directly smashed the blade into the ground.

The body of the knife hummed, and where did the phoenix come from? Chickens are not even counted.

Several soldiers laughed, gave up after mocking, and geared up to try one by one, but unfortunately they all failed without drawing a single wing.

Geng Bian stood aside and watched with a smile, just as he saw Shen Lingyuan standing at the gate of the school grounds, he hooked the corner of his mouth and shouted, "Little brother over there, do you want to try this phoenix spreading its wings? Come out, the eunuch will give you a high official salary and a wife!"

Shen Lingyuan originally wanted to watch the excitement and leave, but he didn't expect to be discovered. Although he didn't like high-ranking officials and rich salary and marrying a wife, he was indeed interested in that knife.

Shen Lingyuan still remembers that when he was a child, he sneaked to Lanxuan when he was fond of playing, and saw Changxing Hou Shen Chi dancing his crimson Crescent Moon Saber, every move was so powerful that the fallen leaves in the courtyard were also moved by it. Dancing, let little Shen Lingyuan focus on the past, and dreamed of being a hero for several days.

It's a pity that the knife also went to Jialing Pass with my father and never came back.

After Shen Lingyuan entered the slope, he also changed into the same clothes as the soldiers, because the rest of the soldiers just looked at this man unfamiliarly and didn't feel anything wrong.

Geng Bian, on the other hand, showed a hidden smile.

Shen Lingyuan walked forward unhurriedly, at first the brothers were still teasing, "Can you carry a knife like this little one!"

"Be careful, don't get hit by the knife!"

But when Shen Lingyuan really swung the knife, everyone vividly staged what it means to be dumbfounded.

Shen Lingyuan didn't like reading when he was young, but he preferred martial arts. He couldn't remember all the truths, but he couldn't forget the moves. Relying on his childhood memory, Shen Lingyuan imitated his father, swung the knife, put his right foot first, and raised his left foot. Legs, the front leg of the left hand, and the back of the knife with the right hand.

The blade pierced through the wind, and the soldiers retreated again and again, but Shen Lingyuan didn't stop, and repeated the action just now, and the speed became faster and faster. In the end, only the afterimage of the blade and handle was outlined in front of everyone. A pair of blue phoenix wings.

The author has something to say:

"Swing the saber, lower the right foot first, lift the left leg, hold the front leg with the left hand, and wrap the saber with the right hand." Quoted from the Qinglong Yanyue Dao technique, the phoenix spreads its wings.
