Before they arrived at the new city outside the pass, the eight hundred Phoenix Battalion light cavalry encountered a small incident that made people not know whether to laugh or cry.
The aggressive Senior Officer Yuan Meng quickly rode to the side of the carriage and reported to the young Vassal Lord acting as the coachman, "Your Highness, the scouts have reported that there are more than sixty Jianghu martial artists with swords and sabers one li northwest of here. They are divided into two groups and are rushing this way. Do you need me to bring people to stop them?"
Hsu Fengnian was stunned for a moment and asked with a smile, "Is it a Jianghu feud between the gangs, or is there an ulterior motive?"
Yuan Meng opened his bloody mouth and said with a murderous look, "Who cares? Anyway, my brothers have been holding back for too long. Let's use them as an appetizer to go with wine!"
Hsu Fengnian waved his hand and said, "Forget it, let's just continue on our way. As long as they don't come close, don't pay them any attention."
Seeing that this Senior Officer who was born in the prime of his life seemed to be unwilling, Hsu Fengnian used his horsewhip to point at the bridegroom Yu who was not far in front of them and said with a smile, "You're itching for a beating, right? This is Wang Xianzhi's eldest disciple. Is he enough for you to sweat?"
Yuan Meng said resentfully, "Then forget it. Harmony breeds wealth. Harmony breeds wealth."
However, the development of the situation made the sullen Senior Officer Yuan feel very gratified. The two groups of Jianghu fish dragons crashed into the long snake formation of the eight hundred White Horse Cavalry. Yuan Meng could obviously see that the people in the lead wanted to lead the trouble and wanted to muddy the water so that they could escape. One of the young swordsmen who was covered in blood flew over the heads of the White Horse Cavalry and landed on the right side of the slowly advancing cavalry. With him taking the lead, the others behind him all stepped on the tips of their toes and nimbly flipped over the wall of people. If that was all, it would have been fine. However, there were some whose lightness skills were slightly inferior. They couldn't possibly circle around to the back of the light cavalry and escape. After a moment of hesitation, it was unknown who was the one who summoned the courage to shout, "Gentlemen, please make way, please make way, please make way!" Then, five or six reckless fellows attempted to pass through the cavalry formation. Yuan Meng, who was already hot-tempered to begin with, was already burning with rage when someone dared to provoke him. However, when he turned around and saw that his prince was as still as a mountain, he forced himself to endure. In the end, this group of bastards wanted to take an inch and want a mile, wanting to interfere with the marching of the troops. Yuan Meng tilted his head and spat fiercely. He cursed in a low voice and roared at the top of his lungs, "Raise the crossbows! Anyone who dares to come within ten steps of me will be killed without mercy! "
The cavalry didn't stop and continued forward, but almost immediately, all the light cavalry raised their light crossbows.
The crossbow bolts shone brightly under the sunlight, sending chills down the spines of the Jianghu people.
The Jianghu people charging at the very front were so frightened that they stopped in their tracks. They didn't move at all and didn't even dare to breathe loudly. Other than the five people on the right who had used their lightness skills to leap over the wall of light cavalry, the rest were blocked on the left side of the cavalry.
A middle-aged man wearing a green robe and holding a sword clearly had more experience in the Jianghu. Not only did he indicate to the people around him not to act rashly, he also turned his arm behind his back at the first instant and adopted the posture of carrying a sword on his back to express goodwill to the cavalry. He looked at Yuan Meng, who looked the most like a general, and said in a clear voice, "General, I am Zhang Rongqian of Nanzhao's Taibai Sword Grandmaster. I am currently pursuing twelve unscrupulous criminals with my Jianghu companions. If I have offended your carriage, please forgive me!"
The Feng Battalion Commandant, who had respectfully called someone "general" in front of the King of Beiliang, immediately blushed. This flattery had completely hit the horse's hoof. Yuan Meng angrily rebuked, "F * ck your general! I'm only a sixth-level Commandant! You put oil on your mouth. With one look, I can tell that you're not a good person! "
The middle-aged scholarly swordsman who called himself Zhang Rongqian of the Taibai Sword Grandmaster was somewhat embarrassed. In the end, the Jianghu was all about face. More than sixty Jianghu people had perked up their ears to listen, but in the end, he was scolded by the cavalry Commandant who didn't know how to appreciate his kindness. As a Jianghu leader who could rank among the top ten in the Jianghu world of Nanzhao, no matter how good he was at cultivating his body and mind, he didn't have the willpower to stick his hot face to a cold butt. However, facing a cavalry army of nearly a thousand people, and one that looked like the elite and valiant Beiliang Frontier Army, Zhang Rongqian, as a person who had crossed the river, didn't have the guts to compete with the local tyrant, especially in Beiliang's territory. No matter how good Zhang Rongqian's martial arts were, even if he had three heads and six arms, he wouldn't be able to cut vegetables. Therefore, Zhang Rongqian only kept a cold face and didn't retort.
An old man in embroidered clothes who had been bitten by Zhang Rongqian and hadn't been able to jump over the light cavalry wall was still fiercely arrogant even though he was seriously injured and had a bloody hole in his waist. Right now, with his back to the cavalry, he was facing more than fifty Jianghu enemies and said gloomily, "Zhang Rongqian! You're the number one hypocrite in Nanzhao who pretends to be righteous and deceives the world. You have the nerve to call us bad people?! Our young master has only exposed your old history of killing your brothers and stealing secret manuals to get to the top. If you really have the ability, then come and kill us! "
A graceful woman in snow-white clothes holding a bright red pipa said softly, "Evil and crooked ways. No matter how glib your tongue is, everyone has the right to punish you."
The old man who was covering the wound on his waist sneered and said, "Oh, Fairy Liu of Huainan Dao's Misty Mountain's Daheng Peak has spoken. Haha, it's only because time is unforgiving. Otherwise, when this old man was young, I would've slept with at least thirty of you on my bed, if not fifty! As for your Master, Fairy Flying Cicada, that old hag who likes to show her face in public because of her youthful appearance, This Old Man didn't even look at her in the past! Didn't she rely on her short-lived relationships with several old men to occupy the last position among the eighteen people on Mount Hui's Great Snow Plateau? Does she really think she's that great? Xuanyuan Qingfeng killed our Sect Leader. We hate him, but in the end, we still respect him. He relied on his true ability to kill six masters, including our Sect Leader! But what do you bastards think you are? "
Yuan Meng laughed and suddenly didn't want to rush the Phoenix Battalion to chase them away.
The white fairy holding the pipa narrowed her eyes and said in a low voice, "Demon King Fuhai, you're courting death!"
The old man with blood seeping out of his fingers shook his waist and said with a wicked smile, "So, you're looking for this?"
Zhang Rongqian seemed to have been staring at the movements of this leader of the Demonic Path, but the corner of his eye had been paying attention to the movements of the cavalry. This outer sect Mountain Chieftain of the Taibai Sword Faction suddenly saw the carriage stop and the young coachman look towards them. But strangely, no one walked out of the carriage, nor did anyone lift up the curtains. It was as if this coachman, who did not know the rules, wanted to watch a good show. Then, he acted on his own initiative and stopped the carriage, causing the entire cavalry to suddenly stop without any orders.
