[Comprehensive] Proving the Way with the Sword

Yun Shanyuan told Ji Bingyan almost the truth about her current situation. After waking up in the snow, he forgot all the past, only remembered his name, and wanted to enter the pass and go south.This is not a lie.

Ji Bingyan was not a talkative person, he just checked Yun Shanyuan's physical condition, and when he saw that she was in good health, he briefly explained their situation.It is now the end of November in the fourth year of Zhengtong, and they are in the grassland outside Yanmen Pass, and it has been snowing heavily for several days.

"Recently, there has been some chaos at Yanmen Pass. The former commander-in-chief, Zhou Jian, has rebelled and turned into a bandit. There has also been a change in Wala on the grassland. It is said that he is chasing an official of the Ming Dynasty. Now, let's avoid those conflict areas and head towards Taiyuan in the middle of Jin , find a way to enter the customs from there."

There are nine frontiers in the world, and Yanmen is the leader.

The Yanmen Pass was expanded in the Ming Dynasty, and the Eighteen Passes of the Northern Song Dynasty were rebuilt on the east and west wings, connected by the Great Wall in the middle.From Pingxing pass to Xuangang pass, the defense stretches for about [-] miles.Now the two of them avoided the Yanmen pass, and they wanted to enter the Daming land through other passes.

Yun Shanyuan found out where he was, but he couldn't remember any major events that happened outside the Great Wall in the fourth year of Emperor Yingzong of Ming Dynasty.The famous Civil Fortress Change should have happened ten years later, of course, the timeline of the official history can only be used as a rough reference.

She tried her best to think about the legend of Chu Liuxiang, but she couldn't think of anything.I vaguely know that Ji Bingyan should be a rich family, but it can be seen that Ji Bingyan does not match the image of a rich family.And the stories in those books probably started many years later, not when Ji Bingyan was so young.

It is better to have no books than to believe in books.Besides, this is a real world.

Yun Shanyuan was thinking about the way ahead.After Ji Bingyan said those two sentences, he didn't say much, and didn't ask Yun Shanyuan where he wanted to go after entering the customs, or where he would settle down.This made Yun Shanyuan feel that he seemed to be running away from something, but on the surface, there was nothing unusual about it.

After riding the horse like this, the sky darkened.The heavy snow showed no signs of stopping, but it was falling more and more today, making it unsuitable to continue on the road after nightfall.

Ji Bingyan found a small mound leeward, and the two decided to take a rest here.Even if the person is not tired, the horse can't bear it.Yun Shanyuan looked at the horse carefully. It was in low spirits, as if it had run for a long distance, and it was unknown where Ji Bingyan came from.

Ji Bingyan distributed some dry food to Yun Shanyuan, and then he took dry firewood from the duffel bag carried by the horse, and lit a fire. "Let's rest for one night and hurry up tomorrow morning."

This would be called rest, not real sleep, but meditation.

Yun Shanyuan was not surprised that Ji Bingyan knew that she knew martial arts. If she didn't know kung fu, how could the little girl survive alone in the extremely cold weather.The biggest advantage for her to meet Ji Bingyan is that she can keep warm by the fire.She could only spend the previous two nights in darkness.She was not frightened to death on this deserted and pitch-black snowfield because of her excellent psychological quality.

About three hours later, the heavy snow stopped at some point, and the moonlight filled the snow.

Yun Shanyuan felt a warm current in his dantian, and his physical strength also recovered.

She opened her eyes and saw that Ji Bingyan was still sitting quietly with her eyes closed. She just wanted to stretch and stand up to exercise her muscles and bones, but who would have thought that when she looked back, she saw a faint green bush in the distance under the cold moonlight. light spot.

Immediately, her mind was jolted!

This is not a ghost in the snow, this scene is a bit familiar, she took a closer look, and those green light spots were slowly approaching the two of them silently.Because of the strong wind, their footsteps could hardly be heard.

Yes, it was a pack of wolves!Under the dark sky, the preliminary judgment is that there are about ten of them.

"Brother Ji." Yun Shanyuan called softly, "There are wolves."

Ji Bingyan opened her eyes in an instant and looked into the distance. The pack of wolves was slowly approaching the two of them.

The fighting power of the wild wolves outside the Great Wall cannot be underestimated.Every year in snowy days is a time when food is scarce on the grasslands. Wild wolves attacking herdsmen’s flocks will cause great casualties. Faced with a group of hungry wild wolves, herdsmen who gather in groups dare not confront them head-on .

The wolves are used to cooperating to attack, and the current situation is that their running speed is far faster than that tired old horse, and he himself was secretly injured in the fight with the two lunatics.

Turning around and running away is definitely not the best policy.

"Stand up slowly to get a torch. Remember, you must not be afraid of it, they will keenly capture your timidity. If you are afraid of it, it will eat you."

Ji Bingyan said this to Yun Shanyuan, and he also drew his sword. "Now we have three steps. First, I hit the stone with my sword, which reminds the wolves of the sound of traps, and they may back off. If they don't back off, then you throw the torch hard, wolves are afraid of fire , they may retreat. If they still do not retreat, it is only the last step."

Yun Shanyuan heard Ji Bingyan say, "The scream of the wolf's death is the best way to scare off the wolves. To capture the thief, first capture the king, and we will kill the wolf king!"

Yun Shanyuan once killed wild dogs when he didn't know kung fu, and although he knew kung fu, he didn't have many chances to fight, and he had never been surrounded by wolves in the wild.

This is quite a posture of being born once, familiar with twice, and always confronting animals.

This was the first encounter, and it would be a lie to say that she was not nervous or frightened.However, Ji Bingyan's calmness infected her, and she quickly calmed down, picked up the torch without showing any timidity, and stood ready.

The wolves also noticed the movements of the two, but they did not stop encircling them. When the wolves got closer, they could clearly see the expressions of these wolves.

The wild wolves had fierce eyes, looking straight at Yun Shanyuan and Ji Bingyan by the fire, as if they had already regarded them as dinner on the plate.People can intuitively feel their hunger!

Ji Bingyan slammed his sword at the stone without further words. In this cold night, the sound of metal and stone was especially harsh.

The encirclement of the wolves paused for a moment, but then the wolf in the center seemed to show a sneering expression. It howled into the sky, and the surrounding wolves also howled into the sky. ran over here.

Seeing the situation, Yun Shanyuan threw out the torch in her hand and went straight to the wolf in the center. However, she just took over this body, and in terms of her physical condition, she was not rested and half-starved, unable to exert herself. The greatest power of the torch.Let the wolf hide in the past, the torch passed by its tail, and there seemed to be a burning smell in the air.

"No, these wolves are not good at giving up!" Ji Bingyan saw that the wolves would not back down when they saw the flames, which had already violated the normal animal instincts, and the running posture of the wolves was very vigorous, which showed that this was a group of people who were not afraid of people. Wolf!

As he spoke, he picked it up with the edge of his sword, and the firewood on the fire piled towards the wolves, like a rain of fire from the sky.

One or two of the wolves couldn't dodge and were burned to the fur. The fire caught fire and burned all over the wolves' bodies in the strong wind, making them roll in pain on the snow and howl in pain.

But who would have thought that their companions would still not retreat after hearing the screams.

Seeing this scene, Yun Shanyuan knew that Ji Bingyan's last method of retreating the enemy had also failed. "It seems that they are so hungry that they must eat us. I'm afraid they didn't find any other food along the way."

Since it is impossible to retreat, then we can only come and kill one, and come and kill a pair.

Yun Shanyuan raised his left hand, looked at the direction where the wolves came from, and stabilized his arm. After three whizzing sounds of piercing the air, the sleeve arrow passed through the waists of the three wolves at an extremely tricky angle. A small hole was left, and their blood stained the snow red.

Five of the ten wolves were eliminated successively, leaving only half of them.

Seeing this, Ji Bingyan's eyes flashed a hint of surprise, but it was too late to ask anything, and the remaining five wolves rushed over persistently and wanted to surround them.

The pack of wolves wanted to form a siege, and one of them rushed towards the horse that had been restless for a long time, as if they wanted to solve the means of transportation for the two of them, so that they could not escape.

"Go and untie the reins, you get on the horse first!" Ji Bingyan said to Yun Shanyuan, and he couldn't think too much at this moment, such as whether Yun Shanyuan knew how to steer a horse.With his feet on his feet, he leaped towards the wolf with its burnt tail hair, cutting off the possibility of it attacking the horse.

However, the wild wolf's jumping height was not low, and the wolf leader threw himself at Ji Bingyan regardless of the wound on his tail.

Ji Bingyan leaped into the air, swiped the sword and only stabbed the wolf in the waist, the strength in his hand was merciless, and he cut it off in the middle.

Yun Shanyuan looked at the changes in the situation at this moment, and she secretly sighed that it is good to have lightness kung fu, otherwise how could she fly and volley the wolf with a sword.It's a pity that this body can't use light work yet.

Thinking of this, she kept moving her hands, untied the rein, and got on the horse.

The horse was frightened at first, and once the rein was untied, it had the urge to run away, and was extremely restless.Theoretically, under such circumstances, one should never ride on it. Its constant bumping and rampaging posture is just trying to shake off Yun Shanyuan and run first by itself.

At this time, it can be seen that Yun Shanyuan's riding skills are superb, he sat on the horse steadily, and was not thrown off by the crazy horse.And he also used this crazy horse, when it kicked its front hooves wildly, kicked a wild wolf that was coming straight up with two kicks, directly kicked the wolf's waist, and kicked it flying a long way.

"This is a beautiful move!" Ji Bingyan smiled rarely.In just a moment, there were only three wild wolves left on the snowy ground. They seemed to be afraid of the mad horse, and they also had scruples about Ji Bingyan who had killed the first wolf. Turn around and retreat.

Ji Bingyan quickly put away the luggage on the ground and jumped on the horse, "Let's chase after him! The wolf bears his revenge, and we can't let the road ahead be uneven."

The horse was very tired, and its running speed would not be faster than the wild wolf. At this time, it was probably frightened, but its speed was three points faster, and it was chasing after the wild wolf.

Ji Bingyan let Yun Shanyuan take control of the reins, and he used lightness kung fu again to catch up to the three wolves.Different from the aura they had when they came fiercely before, they all fled weakly at this time, and if they lose their aura, they will inevitably end up dead.

During this flight, the sky was near dawn.

In the end, Ji Bingyan killed the three wolves, but the two deviated from their original route of entry.

The horse carrying the two seemed to have gone mad and had no strength to continue on its way, and its speed had completely slowed down.

"Brother Ji, let's take a rest behind that hill." Yun Shanyuan said, she could feel hungry.Fighting is strenuous work, and I heard Ji Bingyan's stomach growling.

"Okay." Ji Bingyan's face turned pale after saying this word.

After Yun Shanyuan got off the horse, he saw Ji Bingyan's face clearly through the light of Huo Zhezi, and he was in a bad situation. "Brother Ji, were you injured before?"

In the fight with the wild wolf, Ji Bingyan was not approached, it could only be that he was injured earlier, and then his internal force was activated during the human-wolf battle, which caused the old injury to be affected.

Perhaps because the two experienced an unexpected wild wolf battle together, Ji Bingyan's attitude towards Yun Shanyuan also changed a little, at least he no longer regarded her as just a child to take care of.

"I'm fine now, but we can't rest for too long, half an hour at most, even if the horse can't walk anymore, we still have to drive to the pass. Otherwise, the sound of howling wolves will attract those two lunatics gone."

"Crazy?" Yun Shanyuan asked puzzled, "Is someone chasing you?"

Ji Bingyan shook her head slightly, "It's not chasing, but it's not much better. Have you ever heard of Black and White Maha?"
