…

In early summer, it rained continuously.

The sky was covered with endless dark clouds, as if they wanted to collapse the entire sky. It might be because of the weather, but it was already a bit gloomy in the afternoon.

In just a few seconds, the dark clouds that covered the sky turned into drizzle, which turned into torrential rain in an instant.

In the rain curtain, several black shadows passed quickly from a distance. The four hooves of the horse stepped heavily on the water, and the splashing water soaked the horse's hoofs into mud. The people driving the horses were all wearing raincoats with solemn expressions. The leader pointed far away.

A dilapidated temple in the distance whispered: "Let's go and take shelter from the rain."

Everyone said in unison, "No," and immediately rushed towards the ruined temple.

The pockets of the coir raincoat were extremely wet, and the ground was soaked as soon as they entered the temple. The temple was overgrown with weeds, and it was unknown how many years it had been abandoned.

The wall tiles were so discolored that they were so mottled that they were completely invisible. The vines spread wildly along the gaps. The sound of dripping raindrops echoed in my ears. As I rode into the temple, my horse's hooves clattered.

He tied the horse under the eaves to avoid the rain, leaving four swordsmen who were good at watching. The other three held the handles of their knives and carefully entered the house, intending to take shelter from the rain.

The dust inside the temple is visible to the naked eye, and everywhere is full of traces of time. I don’t know when this temple was established. The statues worshiped have long since disappeared, and there are signs of cracks everywhere.

"Where are you?"

The leader, a burly man with a beard, asked.

The two people who followed the leader into the temple, one took out a wet map and seemed to be looking for a location, while the other took out flint and planned to light a fire.

"Yu Hou, we should have arrived at the border of Qizhou." The sergeant who took out the map looked at the route and immediately opened his mouth to report.

That Yuhou didn't hesitate at all, and immediately said: "Qizhou? Then we have to leave Jingdong and transfer to Jingxi. It won't be long before we arrive in Tokyo!"

"That's right, that's right!"

The accompanying sergeant quickly agreed.

Seeing this situation, Yu Hou took down several bags hanging on the horse and shook them. They were quite heavy. Seeing this situation, Yu Hou couldn't help but take a deep breath and then said: "I'm going to see the emperor this time.

Master, we are going on behalf of the yamen! We must not be short of money. When we go to the capital, everything needs to be taken care of. If we can find a good place for the yamen, we will also get a big reward from the magistrate!"

"If this trip goes well, Yu Hou, maybe you can be promoted to deputy military commander, or even if it doesn't go well, you should be a tenth general!" A person on the side complimented.

When Yu Hou heard this, he didn't express anything, but his expression was a little silent and complicated.

He did not rise to the rank of Yuhou in a formal way. He was the son of a big local businessman. He always liked to dance with guns and sticks. His father had no choice but to donate money and food to the local Xiang army stationed there, so he changed his job.

This will be your position.

What kind of official is General Yuhou? He is considered to be the first-class officer among the grassroots officers. He can only command a few soldiers, but General Yuhou can also be regarded as a stepping stone to enter the official career. It is precisely because of this position and the huge wealth he has had since he was a child.

Only then did he often come in and out of the office of the prefect of Dengzhou and make friends with the prefect's yamen...

This time when I entered Tokyo, it was because of the instructions from my office. I heard that Taishi Cai’s birthday was approaching, so I brought some gifts to send out a ‘birthday guide’, and walked through Taishi’s path, hoping to find a good job in the capital.

He does not lack for a bright future, but he is usually spoiled and spoiled. Now that he is rushing to Tokyo in all weathers, it is quite unbearable, and his temper can't help but become a lot worse.

As if they could see the dissatisfaction in Yu Hou's heart, one of them chuckled, came to Yu Hou's side with a wink, and said to Yu Hou: "Yu Hou, when the rain clears, do you want to go to the nearby villages to find some young ladies?"

Although it is not stated clearly, I can only say that I understand what it means.

.

Along the way, they searched for him several times, and each time they gave him two or three dollars as compensation. The common people could only grit their teeth and swallow it.

"No!"

Yu Hou obviously knew a lot about where to play and where not to play. He immediately scolded: "We are traveling in the name of the prefect. We can just play casually in those small places. Let's play here...

…How many heads do you have that are worthy of being chopped off? Why don’t you go to Tokyo and play?!”

Hearing Yu Hou's words, the sergeant who wanted to please him walked away without daring to say anything else.

Although he was a little unhappy in his heart, he did not dare to show it. After all, the person in front of him was a popular person in the yamen. If he offended him, he could find a reason to deal with him later, but he did not dare to talk nonsense.

But at this moment, the sergeant in charge of lighting the fire inadvertently looked up and discovered a strange creature in the corner of the ruined temple.

He looked like a raccoon slave, but his face was really unusual, and he looked quite strange. For a moment, the sergeant was so confused that he didn't know what to say. He just looked away and saw a man next to the raccoon slave.

figure.

There, there was a figure holding a sword.

The entire figure was covered by the cloak, and no trace of his figure could be seen at all. Only the scabbard of the long sword was quite unusual. At a glance, one could tell that the owner of this sword must come from a wealthy family.

After seeing this figure, Yu Hou, who was still saying something, quickly shut up and stopped talking. The sergeants also immediately restrained their voices and leaned against the fire, minding their own business. The entire ruined temple fell into chaos again.

In peace.

But in the blink of an eye, there was a sudden meowing sound, and then the mysterious figure stood up and walked straight towards the sergeants.

Seeing someone approaching, the sergeants stood up one after another, looked at the mysterious figure, and immediately stood up with their swords in hand, shouting: "Get back quickly, or don't blame me for the ruthlessness of our men!"

Hearing the noise inside, the sergeants outside the door also drew their swords and looked at the room warily. Their positions had changed slightly, ready to decide whether to attack depending on the situation at any time.

And this mysterious figure seemed not to see the threat of these soldiers. He just drew his sword and threw the scabbard on the ground, making a crisp sound. A thin layer of sword was already attached to the unsheathed sword.

Thin red infuriating energy.

"Um?"

Seeing this red infuriating energy, the surrounding sergeants were also stunned...

Gangqi!

This turned out to be a strong man in the military formation who was at least Gangqi. If placed in the Xiang Army, he would be an army commander, enough to govern the entire military presence!

At this level, Wang Xianggong, the Zhizhou governor of Qingzhou and the pacification envoy of the Jingdong East Road and the general manager of the Ma Infantry Army, could only forcefully push them with his literary spirit. He could barely reach this level and could advance and retreat freely in an army of fifty or sixty people.

How could such a remarkable person appear in this ruined temple?

All of a sudden, these sergeants panicked and cowered. The leader, Yu Hou, even smiled and said, "I wonder which gentleman is here to meet you? Please..."

Before he finished speaking, a sharp pain suddenly came from his neck, the sharp sword light bloomed, and bright red blood spattered out instantly. Immediately, a big head rolled to the ground with a grunt, and his face He even had a flattering smile on his face.

This sudden change made the other two sergeants extremely frightened. One of them trembled and turned around and ran away using the traditional skills of the Song Dynasty Xiang Army.

The other man, who was just starting out, was not afraid of tigers. He slashed with his knife, only to hear a clear and crisp sound. The broadsword and the long sword touched each other, and the broadsword broke in response. The cross section was neat and smooth, but the man did not stop the movement in his hand. The long sword continued to stick to the broken blade and slashed towards the sergeant. The blade was as powerful as breaking bamboo and directly cut open the sergeant's neck, showing a bloody line.

[To be honest, I’ve been using @ lately

When he came out, he only heard a scream of "Ah," and the fleeing soldier staggered to the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

The four sergeants outside the door got on their horses as soon as Yuhou was beheaded. They didn't even bring their raincoats or hats, and fled outside in the heavy rain. Their horses' hooves stepped into the mud, causing a splash of muddy water again.

Seeing this situation, the figure holding the sword did not pursue it. He just walked straight to several heavy bags piled next to the fire, picked up one at random, opened it, and saw all kinds of agate, jade, gold and silver jewelry. It looks like it is priceless, but I don't know how much people's wealth and money have been plundered.

At this moment, the weird-looking raccoon slave also hurried over with the scabbard that had been thrown away before, meowing: "Birthday card! Yi An, you have intercepted the birthday card!"

The mysterious man took off the mask that covered his figure, revealing a beautiful face with long flowing hair and an extremely heroic look, like a heroine from a martial arts novel.

This is Li Yian and Li Qingzhao, who are famous in Qizhou.

It is now the second year of Zhenghe, and Song Huizong has been in power for twelve years.

During these twelve years, the Six Thieves arose, and corruption became common in the Song Dynasty. Although the Song Dynasty was still prosperous, this prosperity was built on the support of countless people.

Li Yian's father, Li Kefei, also died of illness seven years ago. Li Yian was now helpless, with only Chen Xingmiao by his side.

With the Dragon Qi of the Ming Dynasty in his body, Li Qingzhao is no longer the weakling he used to be. Although he is still proficient in literature, at this moment, Li Qingzhao already has something in his mind and his eyes are as bright as fire, especially after he learned about his future husband Zhao Mingcheng from Chen Xingmiao. After all the ugly things he did, he resolutely went to the Zhao family alone to break off the engagement, which became a strange story in the local area...

The descendants of the clan divided all the land deeds left by Li Kefei, leaving only an ancestral house to Li Qingzhao. Li Qingzhao was also happy to have a leisurely life. Six years ago, Chen Xingmiao awakened his ability again and shared the ability that belonged to the Han Dynasty Sima General Huo Guang. Li Qingzhao, from then on Li Qingzhao learned to be patient.

Three years ago, Chen Xingmiao took off again, and this time Li Qingzhao inherited the abilities of a heavyweight.

Xiang Yu, the legendary overlord of Western Chu who is unparalleled in valor!

Starting three years ago, Li Qingzhao became a self-taught martial artist, and his martial arts skills improved rapidly. In just three years, he entered the Gang Qi realm and became a top-notch martial arts expert in the Great Song Dynasty. He even entered the realm last year.

The realm of martial arts souls!

This kind of speed is already extremely fast, but Li Qingzhao's martial arts level is improving every day, and he thinks he will be able to step into the realm of a grandmaster in a few years.

However, although Li Qingzhao's martial arts realm is extremely superb, he has never shown it to others. However, in the Jianghu, in recent years, a mysterious heroine who is a chivalrous and righteous person has appeared.

According to onlookers, before the heroine takes action, she will be accompanied by a roar as ferocious as Qiongqi's.

Therefore, the reputation of this heroine has also shocked Jingdong, Hebei, Central Plains and parts of Jiangnan, and she has become one of the few masters in the field.

But no one could have imagined that this famous heroine turned out to be Qizhou... no, she was Li Qingzhao, a talented woman who was famous throughout the Song Dynasty.

"The total of these things is only a few thousand guan, not as much as the 100,000 guan you mentioned."

After Li Qingzhao carefully counted the silver coins, he directly raised the fat Chen Xingmiao, pinched Chen Xingmiao's cheeks, and said: "I have been here for more than half a month, and Cai Jing's birthday is almost over.

When exactly will King Chao Tian and the Green-faced Beast come?"

"I have been wandering around in the world for many years, but I have never heard of the reputation of Chao Tianwang or the green-faced beast. I also went to Yuncheng and found a man named Song Jiang, but he was not a county official, but a farmer; these

In 2000, I also asked my father's old officials to inquire, and there was no instructor named Lin Chong in the Forbidden Army."
