Chapter 47 Chapter 46: A Son Must Be Famous · Be Drunk

The only answer to this question is— "Sunshine" had already seen their plot, so they pre-empted the attack and killed them first. Xiao Fang looked at "Sunshine" and sighed softly. "You're really good." He said, "You are much faster than I imagined." "What did you say?" Sunshine didn't seem to understand. Xiao Fang said: "Because we still can't prove that they are really the other party's people, what if we kill the wrong person?" "Sunshine" looked at him, very surprised: "You think I killed them?"

"Is not it?" "Of course not." Sunshine said, "I thought it was you." Xiao Fang was even more surprised. Of course he himself knew that the death of these two people was definitely not in his hands. "Sunshine" asked again: "Isn't it you?" "no." "If it's not you, and it's not me, who is it?" This question is beyond their ability to answer. The face of the dead man had turned black, and it looked as if he had been poisoned—who had poisoned him?When did you poison it?Why poison them?Is it to help Xiaofang and "Sunshine" resolve this crisis?How could there be their helpers in this team?

These questions, of course, are not what they can answer. Xiao Fang and "Sunshine" were surprised when forty or fifty people appeared behind the black stone by the roadside. Forty or fifty men with arrows. There are all kinds of people, including Han people, Tibetans, and Miao people, with all kinds of arrows, including long bows and large arrows, organic spring crossbows, and blow arrows used by the Miao people for hunting animals. No one can distinguish the types of these arrows at a glance; but no one can tell that each type of arrow can kill a person! This is the most dangerous part of the mountain road.If someone gives an order and shoots random arrows, even a top expert like Bu Ying will find it difficult to break through.

Xiao Fang's heart sank. He could see this, the chances for him and "Sunshine" were really slim this time. The four mountains are silent, the black stone is silent, the arrow is silent, and the people are silent.They seem to be waiting, what are you waiting for? Xiao Fang soon knew the answer to this question. ——They are waiting for Huabula. Xiao Fang has already seen Huabula. Huabula is perched on the tallest rock.Looking at them coldly with those mocking eyes - like a cat looking at a mouse under its paw. He also knew that they would never escape this time. Xiao Fang smiled wryly.

He never thought that Huabula was also one of Lu San's subordinates.Panchabana has always been meticulous and cautious in his work, how could he send them to his team before finding out the identity of this person? Huabula suddenly said, "What else do you have to say now?" "there is none left." "Then you might as well go home with me obediently." "Go home?" Xiao Fang couldn't help asking, "Who's home?" "Of course it's your own home." Hua Bula smiled triumphantly: "Now you finally know that going out is difficult, and it's better to go home."

Xiao Fang was even more surprised. He didn't understand what Huabula was talking about at all?They now have no home at all. Xiao Fang doesn't understand, neither does "Sunshine".Neither of them knew how to answer, so they kept silent. Sometimes "silence" means "acquiescence" and "promise".So Huabula smiled happily. "I know you will not be disobedient. It's just that I must be very careful in doing things, and I'm not at ease with you." Huabula thought for a while before continuing, "If you are willing to tie up your hands and feet with ropes first and tie three knots, then I will feel relieved."

He also emphasized: "You must tie the knot. My eyes are very good, you can't hide it from me." "And then?" Xiao Fang asked intentionally. Huabula's face suddenly darkened: "If you don't do anything when I count to three, I will have to send your dead bodies back." Huabula really started counting right away. Although he had a straight face, his eyes were filled with that cruel and mocking smile. Xiao Fang could see that he didn't really want them to do it themselves, let alone send him away properly. When he said this, he just wanted to give some kind of explanation to a certain person.

In fact, what he really hoped in his heart was to watch the arrows shoot out, and the flesh and blood fly; to watch all kinds of crossbow arrows hit their faces and fleshy joints, and then send their dead bodies back. He counted slowly because he knew they would never tie themselves hand and foot. "One, two..." He only heard the word "two" and the sound of "ge", and a row of crossbow arrows had already been shot out. A row of chain crossbows, three arrows fired at the same time, did not hit "Sunshine" and Xiao Fang. With a sound of "ding", three arrows hit the opposite rock at the same time, and sparks flew everywhere.

A person suddenly fell from mid-air and fell on the mountain road.His head was smashed to pieces, but there was no scream, because he was already dead before he fell. The miserable cry was made after the fall, and it was made by someone else. Suddenly, a bright sword light flashed on the rock. The sword light flew like lightning, and the screams continued, and the archers lying in ambush on the rock fell one after another. "Sunshine" cried out: "Panchabana!" Of course it was Panchabana who came to save them, who else but Panchabana? Huabula's expression changed drastically.Xiao Fang had already pounced on him like a vulture, Huabula let out a loud shout, and with the big hand of a giant axe, he pulled out a heavy iron whip, and swung it down with a strong wind.

Xiao Fang had no choice but to step back and dodge for a while, the iron whip in Hua Bu La's palm flew continuously, not only occupying the best position but also taking the lead. The archers on the rock were not dead yet, and there were still crossbow arrows shooting out. "Sunshine" seemed to be hit by an arrow. When Xiao Fang jumped up for the fourth time, the iron whip flying in Huabula's hand suddenly dropped down like a dead snake. Huabula's face suddenly twisted, her bright eyes suddenly turned dead gray, like a poisonous snake that was cut off by seven inches.

He lowered his head and looked at his own chest, his dead gray eyes full of terror and surprise. Xiao Fang was also looking at his chest, his eyes were full of surprise, because something suddenly came out of his chest. Something shiny, the point of a shiny sword. A sword pierced his back, pierced his chest, and a sword pierced his heart. The tip of the sword was drawn while it was still dripping blood. Flowers don't fall down. A man stood behind Huabula, holding a sword in his hand.The sword that stabbed dozens of archers just now is also the sword that pierced Huabula's heart. This person is not Panchabana!He was holding a sword in his hand, and it turned out to be Xiao Fang's magic eye! Who is this guy? Besides Banchabana, who else will come to rescue Xiaofang and "Sunshine"? How could he have Xiaofang's "magic eye" in his hand. Buying? Did Bu Ying finally show up? Before seeing this person's face clearly, Xiao Fang did think so.The thought made him tremble with excitement. Unfortunately, he was wrong again. This man was neither Panchabana nor Buying, but someone he never thought would come to their rescue. This person turned out to be Zhao Qun.That well-behaved and honest person, even when paying twenty-five taels of silver, his hands would tremble with nervousness. Now his hand is more stable than a rock. He held a sword in his hand, holding Xiao Fang's "magic eye". The magic eye flashed a mysterious and strange cold light, and his eyes were also shining. Now he is no longer that well-behaved man.The murderous aura emanating from him was even more terrifying than the sword aura of the magic eye. "Who are you?" Xiao Fang asked. "He is a murderer, but he is also a rescuer." Zhao Qun said: "It's others who kill, but you who save." "Why did you come to rescue me?" "Because it's not you they're going to kill." Zhao Qun said: "Because you didn't deserve to die." Xiao Fang asked again: "Who are they going to kill?" "it's me." Zhao Qun's answer was surprising: "The person they were going to kill was me." Xiao Fang was stunned. He still has many questions to ask, but Zhao Qun has turned around. "You come with me." He said, "I'll take you for a drink. I know there's a place around here that's good." Although Xiao Fang also felt that he needed a drink: "But it seems that it is not the time to drink." "The time has come." "why?" "Because you have something to ask me, and I have something to say." Zhao Qun said: "But there are a lot of things I can't say until I've been drinking." Turning around the col in front, there is a small mountain village in the valley, the mountain people are simple and kind.But the wine they brewed from the grains of wheat was like a fire when it was drunk in their mouths. The place where they drink is not the Xinghua Village that the shepherd boy can point to, but a poor woodcutter's family.If there are travelers passing by to buy wine and drink, their children can wear a new pair of cotton trousers during the Chinese New Year. The master took out an earthen jar with a pair of callused hands.He said something to Zhao Qun in a language that Xiao Fang could not understand, and then he left with his wife and children, leaving three small stone houses for their distinguished guests. Xiao Fang couldn't help asking, "What was he talking about just now?" "He said the drink was called 'The Axe' and that only men could drink it." Zhao Qun smiled and said, "He said he could see that we were men, so he gave us this wine." He asked Xiao Fang with a smile: "Do you understand what he means?" Xiao Fang understood: "He said that probably because he wanted us to act like men when we paid." The walls of the house are all made of stone.A pot of rabbit meat was burning on a large stone stove, and a large piece of firewood was crackling, and the room was filled with the smell of meat and rosin. Women are not in this room. "Sunshine" was hit by an arrow, and the place where the arrow was hit was where the man could not see. Mrs. Zhao Hu took her to a small room at the back and washed her wound with strong wine drunk by the man. The pain made her whole body drenched in cold sweat.But she didn't miss every word the men in the room outside said. After three bowls of "Axe", the alcohol has rushed to the top of his head. It was Xiao Fang who spoke first, and he asked Zhao Qun, "You said they were going to kill you?" "yes." "Do you know who they are?" "Some are from Lu San." Zhao Qun immediately replied: "Huabula also took Lu San's money, so I went to report early this morning and brought Lu San's people." "To kill you?" Xiao Fang asked, "Why did you come to save me?" Zhao Qun answered very easily.No matter who drinks this wine, he will no longer have scruples in speaking. "Because I was also his person, and a person he trusted very much." Zhao Qun said: "But I eloped with his favorite woman." Xiao Fang finally gradually understood. "That woman" is naturally Zhao Hu.She was originally a rare beauty, and Xiao Fang could think of many reasons why Lu San was reluctant to let her go at any time. Zhao Qun was willing to risk everything to elope with her, and the reason was equally good.Xiao Fang believed that many men would do this for her. What's more, they were more compatible, at least much more compatible than she and Lu San. Xiao Fang can forgive them for this. Zhao Qun looked at him, but there was apology in his eyes: "I didn't want to trouble you." He said it very sincerely: "But I know that Lu San has bribed Huabula, and I already suspect that we may be mixed in this caravan." "That's why you deliberately stuffed a golden hand into our luggage to make Huabula suspect us." Zhao Qun said: "But I don't want to harm you." "no." "I did this just to divert their goals and let them concentrate on dealing with you." Zhao Qun said: "In this way, I will have a better chance to make a move." Xiao Fang had to admit this, Zhao Qun's approach was indeed very clever. Zhao Qun explained again: "From the very beginning, I didn't want you to be harmed, so we killed Qian Tong and Qian Ming for you." "Qian Tong? Qian Ming?" Xiao Fang asked: "Are they the father and son who drove with us this afternoon?" "yes." Zhao Qun said again: "They are all subordinates of the Three Treasures Hall. Both father and son are skilled in hidden weapons, and they are poison hidden weapons, so we use the same method to deal with them." "Same method?" Xiao Fang asked, "Poisoned?" "An eye for an eye, fire for fire." Zhao Qun said: "It's because they are this kind of people that Susu made a move." "Susu" is of course Zhao Hu's.Xiao Fang never thought that it was her who poisoned him. It is by no means an easy task for two veterans who are proficient in poison hidden weapons to be poisoned to death without knowing it. "When did she poison it?" Xiao Fang asked again: "What method did you use?" "It was at noon when we changed cars with them." Zhao Qun said: "We also gave them some food and watched them eat it." He smiled: "There are many kinds of dishes we prepare." The poison is in the dish.Qian Tong and his son had already eaten the poisonous vegetables at noon, and the poison did not occur until before dusk. "She has already calculated that they must wait until they enter the mountain before taking action, so she has already calculated the moment when the toxicity will occur." Xiao Fang couldn't help but sighed softly, "She's really accurate." "In this respect, she can indeed be regarded as a master." Zhao Qun's voice was full of pride: "Actually, she can be regarded as a master in any aspect." He was proud of his woman, and she was indeed a woman worthy of being proud of her. But if a man has such a woman, is he really happy? Xiao Fang hopes that they will be happy. There is enough misery in this world.What's more, they are very kind people, and they still don't want others to be hurt under such circumstances. Xiao Fang really wanted to ask them, do they know who he is? He didn't ask. His "magic eye" was hanging on Zhao Qun's waist, and he didn't ask where Zhao Qun got it from? He didn't even look at it. When he got this sword many years ago, like other teenagers who were learning swords, he regarded this sword as more precious than his first love, and even wanted to engrave an inscription on the hilt. "The sword is with the people, but the sword is dead and the people are dead." But now his mood has changed.He has gradually discovered that there are many more important things in life, which are far more cherished than a sword. He is no longer a young man who "expresses his sorrow for writing new words", and he no longer has the pride of "asking if he has a grudge before meeting". He only hoped to find Bu Ying, and he only hoped to be an ordinary person with a clear conscience. Although his hair on the sideburns is not gray yet, his state of mind is slightly approaching middle age. Zhao Qun's eyes were already drunk, but he still stared at Xiao Fang with burning eyes: "I know your original name must not be Miao Chang, just as if you must also know that my original name was never Zhao Qun." "But I never asked who you were," he said. "I didn't ask either." Xiao Fang said lightly: "We have fallen in the end of the world, we met by chance, and tomorrow we will share things, why should we know too much about each other?" "Is this because you also have a lot of pain and secrets in your heart that you don't want others to know?" Xiao Fang refused to answer the question. Zhao Qun suddenly sighed: "Actually, I also know that what you said is right. It's better not to know some things." He sighed and said, "It's a pity that I already know a little bit." "Oh." "When they attacked you on the mountain road and forced you to go home, you should know that they are looking for the wrong person." Zhao Qun asked, "Why didn't you tell them?" He answered the question for Xiaofang: "You don't tell me, it's because you are also the person they are looking for." Xiao Fang was silent. There was still wine in the glass, Zhao Qun drank the wine in the glass, slowly put down the wine glass, and suddenly drew his sword. The sword light was cold, and that "magic eye" seemed to be blinking non-stop, as if it had recognized its old owner. Zhao Qun caressed the sword's edge gently. "You also practice swords." He stared at the sword in his hand: "You should be able to tell that this is a good sword." "It's a good sword." "Not only is it a good sword, but it is also a famous sword." Zhao Qun said: "Its name is Magic Eye." "Oh." "This sword wasn't mine in the first place, it wasn't there five days ago." Zhao Qun suddenly raised his head again, staring at Xiao Fang: "Why don't you ask me, how did you get this sword?" Xiao Fang asked, "How did you get this sword?" "From a dead man." Zhao Qun said: "The dead man is the former owner of the sword. His surname is Fang. He is Lu San's sworn enemy. I am also one of those people Lu San sent to round up him." He continued slowly: "At that time, I had already negotiated with Susu to take the opportunity of that action to break away from Lu San. So I took this sword with me." Xiao Fang listened quietly, completely unresponsive, as if this matter had nothing to do with him. Zhao Qun still stared at him, his bloodshot drunken eyes seemed to suddenly become sober, and suddenly asked Xiao Fang: "Do you want me to return this sword to you?" "give me back?" Xiao Fang asked back, "Why do you want to give it back to me?" "Because I know that the old owner of this sword, Xiao Fang, is not dead yet." Zhao Qun said: "The person who fell to his death under the cliff was not Xiao Fang." "Oh." "Because there is no trace of sword practice on that person's hand." Zhao Qun said: "Not only did I see this, but others also saw it." "Oh." Zhao Qun swung his sword suddenly, forced Xiao Fang's throat with the edge of the sword, and said word by word: "You are Xiao Fang, I know you must be Xiao Fang!" The edge of the sword is just an inch in front of the Adam's apple, and the sword energy pierces the pores like sharp needles. Xiao Fang still didn't respond. The skin on his face has been eroded by "time", and he couldn't see any expression at all. But he didn't even blink. Zhao Qun laughed suddenly: "Sure enough, he is a hero." With a flip of his wrist, the edge of the sword turned back, and with a "choke", the sword was sheathed. Then he took off the sheath of the sharp sword from his waist, and brought it to Xiao Fang with both hands. "Whether you are Xiao Fang or not, I will give you this sword." "Why?" Xiao Fang finally asked. "Because you are a good man." Zhao Qun said: "Only a hero like you is worthy of this sword." His attitude is sincere and straightforward.He really wanted to give this sword to Xiao Fang, but Xiao Fang didn't reach out to take it. Although he has been moved by this person's loyalty, he still refuses to reach out. "Whether I am Xiao Fang or not, I cannot take this sword from you." "why?" Xiao Fang's reason is very unique. "Because if I were Xiao Fang, I would definitely give this sword to you. Even if you gave it back to me, I would still give it to you." He said, "Why do we have to send it back and forth?" "What if you're not Xiao Fang?" Xiao Fang smiled: "If I wasn't Xiao Fang, why should I ask you to give me such a sharp weapon?" Zhao Qun also smiled: "You are such a weird person, you are so weird." He put down the sword in his hand and raised the wine in his glass: "I respect you." Before Xiao Fang raised his glass, his face suddenly changed. Just now the blade was already in his throat, and he didn't even blink his eyes. But now even his face eroded by "time" has been distorted and deformed.It was as if a sharp sword, though invisible, was pierced into his throat and into his heart, sharper than the "magic eye". Because he suddenly heard a singing, a singing that he had heard countless times. — the son shall be famous, — One must be drunk. ——Drunken talk, ——It’s from the heart. The singing is full of the sadness of a helpless man, but also full of blood-thumping heroism.In this mountain village far away from the world of mortals, in this cold night when the wine is slightly drunk, what does it sound like? Xiao Fang suddenly threw down his wine glass and jumped up, rushing out like an arrow. No matter when, where, no matter what he is doing, as long as he hears this song, he will leave everything and rush out. In the desolate valley, in the lonely mountain village, there are only 20 or 30 houses with simple shapes made of stones.All the lights have been extinguished, but on the hillside in the distance, there seems to be a flickering fire. The singing came from the hillside over there. There is a huge rock on the hillside, and a fire is burning on the rock.The crackling of dry pine wood in the flames, accompanied by mournful singing, is like the sound of a broken heart. Sitting alone by the fire, the sheepskin bag of wine in his hand is almost empty, and his singing gradually fades away. Seeing this fire and seeing this person, Xiao Fang's heart became like a pine tree in flames. People are still not drunk, the wine is almost exhausted, how to spend the long night? Xiao Fang has not shed tears for many years.At this moment, the hot tears in his eyes could hardly hold back. "Sunshine" also caught up and held his hand tightly. "It's him?" Her voice trembled: "It's really him?"
