Chapter 13 Chapter Twelve

It's not that Wang Tianbing is not good, nor is it that Zhu Zhiqiang is too good. There is a word "fate" in the relationship between men and women.Once the word "fate" is added between a man and a woman, something will inevitably happen. Zhu Zhiqiang and Xuan Ying fell in love at first sight, and immediately knew that they must live and die together with each other in the future. Naturally, it was fate. It was logical, but there was Wang Tianbing beside him! After meeting Zhu Zhiqiang, Wang Tianbing was very happy. He sent someone surnamed Zhu, so he forced Zhu Zhiqiang to take him to meet his father, grandfather, and uncle. disposal!

What Wang Tianbing said was straightforward, but Zhu Zhiqiang, who grew up in the outside world and had a modern mind, laughed out loud, thinking that Wang Tianbing was a lunatic, so naturally he would not listen to him. At this point, it was said that he was stiff, and words could not be made, so of course he had to do it.Among the three brothers of the Zhu family, although two are homosexuals, the martial arts they learned in Sanxing Taoyuan Middle School have not been left behind. Moreover, in the outside world, they have been learning from martial arts circles around the world, and they have continued to create. Actually carried forward the dragon and tiger kung fu passed down by the Wang family's ancestors, and made it a step further.

Zhu Zhiqiang practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his attainments are extraordinary. The two fought in a valley for three days and three nights, and beat the two young men in their prime to exhaustion. Both lose. During these three days, Zhu Zhiqiang and Xuan Ying felt as if they had been electrocuted when they saw each other. Wang Tianbing also noticed the flirtatious scene. He spends more time with Zhu Zhiqiang than with Wang Tianbing! On the morning of the fourth day, Wang Tianbing untied a bundle, took out a pair of sharp knives, raised his hand, and made two "pats" sounds. The two sharp knives were inserted into a nearby big tree together. Pointing to the two knives: "Start here, one for each person, once you get it, you will fight to the death!"

Zhu Zhiqiang laughed for a long time before saying: "You go to your dream of Taoyuan, I will not accompany you anymore, Ah Ying, let's go!" As Zhu Zhiqiang said, he stretched out his hand to Xuan Ying. The two naturally held hands and walked out of the valley together. Wang Tianbing yelled: "Junior Sister!" Xuan Ying turned around and sighed to Wang Tianbing: "Brother, my heart already belongs to him, don't force me!" Such words came from Xuanying's mouth, word by word, clearly penetrated into Wang Tianbing's ears, Wang Tianbing let out a loud cry, ran to the tree, stretched out his hands and pulled out the double blades, and let out another loud cry , turned around and swung his sword, attacking Xuan Ying and Zhu Zhiqiang.

Seeing Wang Tianbing's approach, he rushed forward like a mad tiger, with unabated momentum, his two sabers made a whistling sound of wind, dazzling, like two lightning bolts, they slashed straight at Zhu Zhiqiang and Xuan Ying. Zhu Zhiqiang and Xuan Ying, still holding hands, retreated back together, but Wang Tianbing's saber was too fierce, although the two retreated quickly, they were still a little slower, the saber was on their foreheads, Gliding past, cut the flesh on the forehead. When Xiang Ma said this, she stretched out her hand and brushed aside the bangs on her forehead. We all saw that on her jade-white forehead, there was a very thin scar from her forehead to the center of her eyebrows.Zhu Xiangxiang sighed greatly, and only then did she know why her mother's hairstyle had been covering her forehead with bangs.

Xiang's mother looked at Zhu Xiangxiang: "Your father also has the same scar on his forehead. Alas, those two cuts were really faster than lightning, with the power of thunder. If you slow down a little bit, our heads may be covered by him." It was split open, and only then did I know that Senior Brother really hated him to the extreme, and he was only willing to put us to death..." When Xiang Ma said this, she was silent for a while. I was thinking in my heart, Wang Tianbing was really miserable. Not only could he not take Zhu's family back, but even his fiancée, who was recognized as his fiancée, left with Zhu. How could he go to see the elders in the valley after being hit like this? .

But feelings must not be forced, this is really a typical tragedy! At that time, although Xuan Ying and Zhu Zhiqiang avoided the attack in the nick of time, they were injured respectively. Seeing the blood splattering on Zhu Zhiqiang's forehead, Xuan Ying was frightened and asked, "What's wrong with you?" Zhu Zhiqiang was also very surprised to see Xuan Ying's injury, but when she heard her asking himself with such concern, he knew that she was only slightly injured, and the bleeding was just horrifying. So he let out a long cry: "Thank you, Brother Wang, for slashing each of us on the forehead and turning us into husband and wife, wonderful! Wonderful!"

When Xuan Ying heard it, although the blood flowed down and her pretty face turned pale, she still immediately smiled sweetly, Wang Tianbing had never seen such a sweet smile before! Wang Tianbing yelled again, but before he raised his knife again, he opened his mouth, followed by the sound of yelling, a mouthful of blood spurted out wildly, within a short while, he sprayed three mouthfuls of blood, and he fell to the ground with fatigue. Xuanying wanted to go over to help him, but Zhu Zhiqiang held her back: "No! He already has the intention of killing us, so don't help him anymore. He rests here for two or three days, and he will recover on his own. Let's go!"

Xuan Ying and Zhu Zhiqiang walked out together. At first, Xuan Ying turned her head to look at Wang Tianqiu. After walking about ten steps, she snuggled up to Zhu Zhiqiang's side and walked out of the valley without looking back. Originally, Xuanying felt a little guilty about leaving Taoyuan with three surnames and senior brother just like this. However, because of the love affair between her and Zhu Zhiqiang, the explosion made her understand true love.Secondly, Wang Tianbing has gone too far. After Wang Tianbing recovered from his wounds in the valley for a few days, after he came out, he entangled Zhu Zhiqiang and Xuan Ying, plotted, assassinated, poisoned, set fire, and used all kinds of methods, which made Xuan Ying also start to hate him.

He acted alone, although he took advantage of the people in the clear and in the dark, but there are so many talented people in Zhu's family, how can he be allowed to succeed? He was captured alive three times, and each time he was released only because of Xuan Ying's pleading. When he let him go for the last time, Zhu Zhiqiang said to him: "This is the last time to let you go. If you don't know what to do and make trouble again, if you fall into my hands again, there will be no mercy!" Not only was Wang Tianbing not grateful, but there was a venomous light in his eyes, like a snake letter from a poisonous snake.

Not long after leaving this time, Zhu Zhiqiang joined the army and entered the military academy.Who knows, not long after, Wang Tianbing chased him to the military academy again. For the first time, because of the unexpected, Zhu Zhiqiang almost fell victim to him. He was poisoned and seriously injured. After that time, Wang Tianbing got into trouble with the military academy several times. The whole school knew that Zhu Zhiqiang had such an enemy, and he gave Wang Tianbing a nickname, "The Ghost Doesn't Scatter". Wang Tianbing is also really slippery: the whole school wanted to capture him alive, but he escaped every time, only once, he was shot, I don't know where, or he escaped, it has been more than a year quiet. During this period of time, Zhu Zhiqiang and Xuan Ying got married, and they were two new couples with General Kuang. General Kuang and Zhu Zhiqiang became good friends as soon as they entered the military academy. Naturally, they knew very well about Wang Tianbing's lingering ghost. friend. Soon, a pair of good friends graduated with honors.After graduating from the military academy, the two participated in large and small battles together. They made great achievements in battle and were promoted repeatedly. Zhu Zhiqiang was even more skilled. He is Zhu Zhiqiang's deputy battalion commander. Wang Tianbing hadn't appeared for a long time, and even Zhu Zhiqiang thought that this lingering ghost had finally dissipated, and the military affairs were very tight, so he no longer cared about this enemy. Unexpected things happen without any precautions. That military mission was to use a battalion of troops to launch a surprise attack on an enemy regiment. It was necessary to use less to win more, and the operation was extremely confidential.After dark, they have already arrived at a place only five or six miles away from the enemy without anyone noticing, and they only need to wait until midnight to attack once they start to succeed. Moreover, news from home told them that their wives were both pregnant. There are about four or five hours before the attack, and the troops are resting in a dense forest, recharging their energy, and preparing to fight. That night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, which was a good time for a sneak attack. After entering the village, an order was issued that there should be no light or sound, and all soldiers and officers should abide by it. The battalion commander and the deputy battalion commander set an example, sitting with their backs against a big tree.Originally, under such circumstances, this pair of good friends would have endless things to talk about, ranging from astronomy to geography, life ambitions, and the future of the country, but at this time, neither of them said a word, A heavy pressure weighed on their hearts, because whether the sneak attack was successful or not was really important to the entire campaign. Time passed slowly, and there was no sound in the forest except the sound of the wind blowing the leaves. I'm afraid even the birds on the trees didn't know that there were more than 2,000 uninvited guests in the forest. It was such a quiet and tense moment, when suddenly, a loud and hasty horse hiss sounded in vain. The neighing of the horse has not stopped, Zhu Zhiqiang has already jumped up, and immediately heard that it was the neighing sound of his beloved Daqing horse, and also heard that the Daqing horse was neighing this time , very painful, obviously suffered a very painful thing. Moreover, in such an environment, there was such a loud hissing sound suddenly, which also shocked people's hearts, as if a spoonful of cold water was suddenly poured into a pot of boiling oil. , all kinds of sounds, although not loud, but also formed an undercurrent, quite out of control. Zhu Zhiqiang and Kuang Zhiqiang touched each other lightly in the dark, and there was a tacit understanding in all their actions. Kuang Zhiqiang immediately sent an order through the messengers around him: keep quiet.Zhu Zhiqiang rushed out following the sound. He was highly trained in martial arts, and he galloped out in the dark like a ghost, with extremely fast movements, and he arrived at the place where the horses were standing in no time. There are not many horses in the camp, less than ten, and there are three grooms.In order to keep the animals from making noise, the ten horses were tied separately to avoid friction.Zhu Zhiqiang went straight to where the big green horse was, to understand why the big green horse neighed like that in this situation. Kuang Zhiqiang issued three orders in a row. Wherever his order was sent, there was silence. When all the undercurrents subsided, the forest returned to calm, but Zhu Zhiqiang hadn't come back yet. Kuang Zhiqiang couldn't help being shocked, he knew that his good friend acted decisively, if the groom made a mistake, in such an emergency situation, it would not be a big deal to immediately take military action, why did he go for so long and still not come back ? He wanted to go to the place where the horse neighed just now, but he also knew that in the darkness, there were countless soldiers and officers who were paying attention to the actions of the commander. If the battalion commander and the deputy battalion commander were all acting hastily because of a horse, Then it will affect the morale of the army! So he had no choice but to wait patiently. As the minutes passed, he was restless and sweating all over his body. Only then did he hear the sound of very light footsteps, and Zhu Zhiqiang came back. Kuang Zhiqiang couldn't help lowering his voice and asked, "What's wrong?" Zhu Zhiqiang's voice was also extremely low: "The groom wanted to steal the big green horse to desert him, but was kicked by the big green horse, and he stabbed the big green horse to death!" Kuang Zhiqiang was surprised and angry: "What about the groom?" Zhu Zhiqiang snorted: "Let him slip away!" At that time, Kuang Zhiqiang had a big question in his mind——how good Zhu Zhiqiang's skills are, how strict Ye Jun is, how can the groom be allowed to slip away after such a thing happened? But the environment at that time was really not suitable for further questioning, so he also snorted, hiding his doubts in his heart, and did not ask further. Afterwards, he was so frustrated by his behavior that he almost didn't kill himself, but at that time, he really could only do so, because Zhu Zhiqiang made up his mind not to tell him, even if he asked loudly, Zhu Zhiqiang would not say what.What's more, at that time, no sound is allowed—it was his own order. After midnight, the army marched out of the woods and went straight to the enemy's position. As soon as the gunshots rang out, the two good friends charged side by side, taking the lead. Zhu Zhiqiang took a blasting squad to attack the enemy's headquarters. There were also warriors in the enemy army. A death squad of seven rushed out from the darkness and surrounded Zhu Zhiqiang. At that time, Kuang Zhiqiang raised his hand in vain when he was about ten meters away. He was asking Zhu if he wanted him to come back and join hands to deal with it. Handle. Kuang naturally had confidence in Zhu's skill, so he immediately ran forward again, took a few steps, and then turned his head, only to see that Zhu Zhiqiang had already chopped down three of them, giving him the upper hand. Kuang Zhiqiang's actions went very smoothly. With a loud noise, the enemy's headquarters was blown to pieces. The enemy's commanders were almost wiped out, and no one was spared.Kuang Zhiqiang was full of joy of victory, and when he wanted to share it with Zhu Zhiqiang, he saw a staff officer, out of breath, rush over and report to him: The battalion commander has died! In the army, being injured is not called being injured, it is called dying.Kuang Zhiqiang was taken aback: "Is it serious?" The staff officer said: "The military doctor is giving first aid, and he must be sent to the hospital immediately!" When the battle situation is urgent, minor injuries can't go to the front line. The battle is going on, and the battalion commander is responsible. As long as he is awake, he can also fight with injuries. Now that he has to be sent to the hospital immediately, it can be seen that the injuries must be extremely serious! Kuang Zhiqiang shouted: "Take me to see!" The staff officer took Kuang Zhiqiang to the place where Zhu Zhiqiang fought with the enemy death squad just now.At that time, stealing Gong was successful, the enemy retreated and surrendered, and the battle was more than half completed.Kuang Zhiqiang saw that the military doctors and nurses were in a mess.As soon as he approached, he saw Zhu Zhiqiang half-sitting supported by a soil guard, with blood gushing from his left chest, a corner of his clothes cut off, and a large knife wound. The knife wound was caused by being hit by a knife in hand-to-hand combat. Considering Zhu Zhiqiang's martial arts, it is really inconceivable that Zhu Zhiqiang would be stabbed in such a vital part by the opponent! Hemostatic medicine and bandages were applied layer by layer, and the bleeding was barely stopped. Kuang Zhiqiang was immediately sent to the nearest hospital. Kuang Zhiqiang was shocked and angry, but he was in charge of the command and could not follow. The battle is over.When Kuang Zhiqiang rushed to the hospital, Zhu Zhiqiang hadn't woken up yet. When the military doctor saw Kuang Zhiqiang, he let out a "wow" and began to cry: "Deputy Battalion Commander, Battalion Commander, he went into battle with injuries, he... was so seriously injured... and he went into battle ...fighting with the enemy!" Kuang Zhiqiang was taken aback: "You're such a mess, what are you talking about?" The military doctor was too excited to speak, and brought Kuang Zhiqiang to the wounded who was still unconscious. Kuang Zhiqiang saw that the wound on the left chest of the wounded was covered with a bandage, and there was another wound between the waist and abdomen, which seemed to be more serious than the wound on the left chest. The military doctor took a deep breath and pointed to the wound between his waist and abdomen: "Only when he was taken to the hospital did he find out that he had been wounded here, it was only hastily bandaged, and he was bleeding all the time, it was the wound he received before the battle started, and it was also a knife wound! The wound is wide and big, it was caused by a serrated blade, it is not a knife used by ordinary people, it is a weapon of martial artists!" When Kuang Zhiqiang heard half of it, he was dizzy and almost fainted! He immediately thought of Wang Tianbing, whom they called the lingering ghost! Wang Tianbing's weapon is a thick-backed serrated dagger! He also remembered the horse neighing before the battle started, Zhu Zhiqiang went to check and didn't return for a long time, and the missing groom! Although there were no witnesses to the incident, it was clearly there! When Xiang Ma said this, she stopped and looked at me. I took a long breath and understood why General Kuang was furious when I said the name "Wang Tianbing", and Xiangma's face became so ugly! There are so intricate grievances and grievances in the meantime: it is so complicated that it is difficult for me to understand when I was young. I just feel: terrible! It didn't take long to find out that the groom who had slipped away had only joined the army a year ago, his background was unknown, he would not make a sound on weekdays, his appearance was ordinary, and no one would pay attention to him. The obvious facts are: Wang Tianbing changed his appearance and joined the army as a groom, waiting for an opportunity—he finally got the opportunity. That night, he stabbed Zhu Zhiqiang's beloved big green horse to death, and the horse hissed miserably before dying , he knew that Zhu Zhiqiang would definitely come to investigate. In the darkness, beside the dead horse, his lingering ghost finally succeeded in sneak attack! Zhu Zhiqiang was successfully attacked by him, of course there will be a counterattack, so Wang Tianbing may have escaped with injuries. What Wang Tianbing never imagined was that Zhu Zhiqiang would be so strong after being seriously injured. Because the battle was imminent, he actually concealed his injury and continued to command the battle as if nothing had happened! The wound on his waist and abdomen was huge, it was tied hastily, and he bled profusely. He persisted in the fight, so that he was severely injured again under the siege of the enemy's death squads—otherwise, with his skill, let alone seven people, he would Three times more, but he can't do anything! After Kuang Zhiqiang learned of these situations, he felt angry, frustrated, and sad, all kinds of emotions mixed. Zhu Zhiqiang woke up after being in a coma for four days. Everyone knew that it was the flashback before his death.At that time, the two pregnant wives had also arrived.Xuan Ying's eyes were red and swollen from crying, Zhu Zhiqiang held her hand, but instead of showing a sad expression, he said that his fingertips were marriage. Kuang Zhiqiang asked quickly, "The groom is Wang Tianbing?" After Zhu Zhiqiang heard this, his eyes were fixed and he didn't speak.Kuang Zhiqiang stomped his feet: "Tell me! You were the one who was tricked first, and that's how you suffered! I must avenge you!" Zhu Zhiqiang shook his head and closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his eyes were fixed, and he had passed away forever! Although the matter is obvious, but before Zhu Zhiqiang died, he did not say exactly who plotted against him in the first place! Since then, there has been no news of Wang Tianbing.General Kuang used all possibilities to find him, and even wanted to send troops to go directly to Taoyuan with three surnames.But Xuan's mother objected: "He won't go back, he has no face to go back!" It wasn't until not long ago that Xiang's mother briefly told Zhu Xiangxiang about the strange things of the year, and said to Xiangxiang, "That person seems to live in this county, and he lives in the family of Wei, a big family in this county." This is why Zhu Xiangxiang asked me to take her to see my master.Zhu Xiangxiang looks very similar to Xiang's mother. Wang Tianbing was surprised when he saw her in vain, and Zhu Xiangxiang also thought that it might be her father-killing enemy, but she had a sad face. She was at a loss for a moment, so she had to turn around and run away. At that time, I just felt strange, how could I expect there to be so many twists and turns! After Xiangma finished speaking, we were silent, because everything she said could not be digested in a short time. After a long while, Zhu Xiangxiang said: "He has already killed him by conspiracy... Dad, why do you still hate Zhu so much?" When Zhu Xiangxiang said this, her voice sounded very calm, but her hands were clenched into fists. I knew it was because of the extreme anger in her heart. Xiang Ma's voice was bitter, but she answered irrelevantly: "All these years, I've been thinking, who is the person who killed Daqingma and assassinated Zhiqiang that night?" As soon as Xiang Ma said this, we were all taken aback, and Kuang Yinghao was the first to yell, "Who is it?" Xiangma frowned, looking at me, although I was surprised when I first heard Xiangma say that, but now, when I think about it carefully, I also feel that the matter is a bit suspicious. One of the doubts is that although there is a disparity in status between the battalion commander and the groom, since the groom is responsible for taking care of the battalion commander's beloved big green horse, there must be a certain degree of contact. But there is a big enemy lurking beside him, which is not justified. The second doubt is that when I get along with my master, although I have nothing else to say except imparting martial arts, I can still feel his sorrow, his longing for Xiangma, and his hatred for Zhu. From what I have experienced, is that the behavior of a person who finally avenged his revenge? Moreover, if he takes revenge, he can go back to Taoyuan with three surnames, and he won't be wandering outside all the time, without face to see Taoyuan's elders. The third doubt is that before Zhu Zhiqiang died, he did not say who was plotting against him. It can be believed that he is an upright person. Even though he thought in his heart that it must be the work of lingering ghosts, he couldn't see clearly because of the darkness. He doesn't talk nonsense. Xiangma must have thought about these doubts many times. What she didn't know was Wang Tianbing's life situation.So, as far as I know, Wang Tianbing's life can be described in a thousand words, and one sentence can describe: "My master doesn't seem to be alive at all. He is more painful than a dead person. Anyone who sees him will be shocked by his Affected by this deep pain, I don't want to look at him more..." When I said this, I looked at Zhu Xiangxiang. Zhu Xiangxiang ran away as soon as she saw him. Of course, she deeply sympathized with what I said, so she nodded vigorously. Although Kuang Yinghao is a bit reckless, sometimes his words still hit the nail on the head. He said: "There is no need to guess too much, just find him, and you can find out the truth, won't you?" Xiang Ma looked up at the sky and said nothing.Zhu Xiangxiang called softly: "Mom!" Zhu Xiangxiang's intention is very clear, whether it is Wang Tianbing's business or not, she will find Wang Tianbing, if Wang Tianbing did it, she will avenge her father.It wasn't Wang Tianbing who did it. Even though it's been many years, she still wants to find the assassin! Xiang's mother closed her eyes, trembling slightly, and after a while, she sighed: "Let me be honest, I don't have the courage to meet him, and I don't know what to do after meeting him, Xiangxiang, you Don't force me!" Xiangma may have superb martial arts skills, but sometimes even gods can't handle this kind of emotional entanglement in an orderly manner, let alone mortals. Zhu Xiangxiang yelled again: "Mom, I don't want you to see him, I am going to see him, and if I see him again, I won't run away again!" I hurriedly said: "I want to find him too, the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals entrusted me to find him!" Kuang Yinghao was in high spirits: "Okay, the three of us will go together, wander the rivers and lakes, look for this Wang Tianbing, and see if it's his lingering ghosts or our lingering ghosts, hum!" When Kuang Yinghao said this, he was gearing up, with a very proud attitude. However, he failed to fulfill his wish.When Xiang Ma heard what Zhu Xiangxiang said, she thought about it quietly and nodded her head in agreement.And when Kuang Yinghao told his father, General Kuang, General Kuang's face darkened: "What nonsense, you will go to Germany to enter the Junior Military Academy next month, have you forgotten? What a dream to travel in the rivers and lakes!" Kuang Yinghao stuck out his tongue and didn't dare to refute—in fact, entering the Junior Military Academy was his real wish. When I went home and talked about it, my uncle first agreed: "Great, you should go see the outside world too!" In a word, it makes my heart itch. I have long been yearning for the colorful world outside. Now I can venture out, and there will be unexpected new things happening every day. This is life! Xiang Ma did not object to our decision. Her suggestion was: "Go to Taoyuan with the third surname first, and he... this time, he may go back to his hometown!" I don't know why Xiang's mother made such a speculation, it must be reasonable, so I agreed.She gave us a very detailed map, and the code to enter the valley, as well as what to pay attention to. I will travel the rivers and lakes with Zhu Xiangxiang, which is a happy thing for me. Naturally, contrary to my elation, it was Kuang Yinghao who kept his eyes on Zhu Xiangxiang and patted me on the shoulder: "We are good friends, good friends forever." He forced me to agree with him, and I took several breaths before I nodded: "Yes, we are good friends." Zhu Xiangxiang stood aside, drooping her eyes and saying nothing. A young man thinks purely, but never thinks that the world is ever-changing and cannot be predicted at all. Ever-changing, of course, is a matter of the future. (Continued later:)
