Chapter 3 Chapter Three

Yan Fei slowly raised the altar to pour wine in his spare time, he didn't seem to hear the sudden sound of horses' hoofs, and he couldn't see a lone rider galloping desperately towards the exit of the east gate, followed by more than a dozen riders bending their bows. Arrow warriors of the Jie tribe. laugh!laugh!laugh! The arrows were shot vigorously, and it seemed that the front rider turned into a hedgehog-like appearance.The man had just rushed to the side of the first floor, shouted, jumped off the horse's back nimbly like a monkey, flipped twice in the air, landed behind Yan Fei, put his hand in front of Yan Fei, raised three fingers, and said: "Three twos." gold!

The war horse neighed miserably and fell to the ground. First it knelt down on its front hooves, and then dragged it to wipe the ground with the rest of its strength. The horse was hit by at least seven or eight arrows, which was horrible. The man was indifferent, he was a thin boy with a horse face, aged between eighteen and nineteen, average height, but with long hands and feet, giving him a sense of dexterity.Most especially a pair of eyes, flexible and shrewd, showing the endowment of cunning and wisdom.In fact, this Han kid named Gao Yan was one of the most popular characters in Bianhuangji, and he was the most outstanding wind media at that time, specializing in buying and selling news.Yan Fei held the cup in one hand, and raised five fingers in the other hand. Gao Yan lost his voice and said, "Five taels of gold, do you want my life?"At this time, Jie warriors galloped up, reined in their horses, and spread out into a half-moon shape. Looking upstairs from the long street below, everyone's eyes were fierce, but they didn't dare to shoot arrows, obviously they were very scrupulous about Yan Fei.

Yan Fei drank slowly. One of them should be the leader, a big man of the Jie clan, came up and said: This is a grievance between our Jie gang and Gao Yan, Yan Fei, if you are sensible, don't get involved. Behind Yan Fei, Gao Yan slumped like a defeated rooster and said through gritted teeth: Five taels is five taels, I'm afraid of you, a guy who takes advantage of the fire. Yan Fei put down the empty wine glass, the alcohol disappeared from his eyes, his eyes were as sharp as a falcon, his tone was still very calm, he looked downstairs lightly and said: Get out immediately, or you will regret it later.

Holding a sword handle in his hand, the big man of the Jie clan looked fierce in his eyes, looking like a wolf who wanted to choose someone to eat. After staring at Yan Fei for a long time, he said angrily: "Okay!"We'll just wait and see how long you, Yan Fei, can be proud. With a whistling sound, he led his companions away along the original path like a gust of wind. Gao Yan let out a long breath, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, sat down in Pang Yi's seat just now, grabbed the wine jar unceremoniously, took a few sips like that, then put down the jar, stared at Yan Fei said: What are you doing here?Is it too long?Seeing that Yan Fei's clear eyes were still staring at him without blinking, he couldn't help showing a heartbroken expression, nodded and said: Alas!Forget that I'm afraid of you.He took out a skin pouch from his bosom, poured out five ingots of yellow and clear gold, and pushed it reluctantly to Yan Fei's eyes with his hands, sighing: I'm going to risk my life, but you sit on the ground and divide the fat, how can it be so unfair?

Yan Fei unceremoniously grabbed the gold and put it in his arms.Frowning: "Why do you stay here?" Gao Yan's eyes lit up immediately, he leaned forward and said in a low voice: This is a golden opportunity to make a lot of money, the southerners can afford it.By the way, let me tell you a piece of news, it is worth at least one ingot of gold, but this time it is given away for free, because I saw that your life is not long.The five Hu gangs in Bianhuangji have formed an alliance, ready to welcome the vanguard army of Fu Jian's younger brother Fu Rong, and decided not to let half of the Han people go.They are gathering troops in the Bell Tower Square, ready to hunt down the retreating Han Gang.Damn it!Do you know that Juqu Mengxun, a powerful general of the Huns under Fu Jian, sneaked in secretly last night to unite the various tribes.Hey!Friends enough?I'm leaving!It bounced up suddenly, crossed the hall like smoke, and got out of the window on the other side, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

As if he didn't hear what he said, Yan Fei suddenly grabbed Die Lianhua, jumped off the chair with a somersault, landed in the middle of the street, and then walked towards the east gate spontaneously. The sound of hooves sounded from behind, approaching from a distance. Yan Fei turned around like a whirlwind, and the rain of arrows in the sky was already shooting head-on like locusts. Xie An's study hall, Wangguan Xuan, fully demonstrated the taste of the Wei and Jin aristocratic families.The architectural layout of the four-sided hall, the century-old locust trees and whirling bamboos in the surrounding gardens, the beautiful summer mountains in the northwest, the steep autumn mountains in the east, and the small pavilions in the clear pools in the north, faintly penetrate into the bookstore through the large lattice windows on all sides, just like the People are integrated into the scenery of the four seasons.

The whole hall is furnished with mahogany furniture, famous paintings are hung on the four walls, and four octagonal palace lanterns are hung on the beams. The richness and nobility do not lose the elegant atmosphere, which shows Xie An's identity and taste. Under the soft morning light, Xie An and Xie Xuan, two uncles and nephews, were sitting on the floor at the chess table in the hall, the former still looked natural and relaxed, while Xie Xuan was a little distracted, frowning as Xie An raised the sunspot. Only from the sitting posture, we can already see the difference in Hu Han's living habits at that time.Since the Yin and Zhou dynasties formed the custom of kneeling and sitting with their knees on their knees and their buttocks on their heels, it has become an important part of Confucian etiquette culture.Sitting with the buttocks on the ground, sitting with the legs stretched forward, and sitting with the feet hanging high are all considered disrespectful and taboo behaviors.After the end of the Han Dynasty, in the mixed places of Hu and Han, Hu Zuo or Ji Zuo, who sat on chairs with hanging feet, had been widely spread among Han people, forming a new living room culture of high-foot-shaped beds, chairs, and stools.However, in the aristocratic family, Hu Si is still considered disrespectful and uneducated.

Xie Anda smiled meaningfully, put Heizi on the plate, and ate a big dragon that Xie Xuan worked so hard to create, and Heizi occupied a corner of the plate. Xie Xuan bowed his head and said, "I lose!" Xie An said spontaneously: "Since you are proficient in chess, this is the first time I have won against you in five years. It can be seen that the way to win is to focus on one mind. Nephew Xuan was distracted and unable to concentrate, so he lost this way."If you are still so impetuous on the battlefield, even if Fu Jian's military strategy is far inferior to yours, nephew Xuan, you will still be defeated.

Xie Xuan smiled bitterly and said: If Fu Jian had not had ten times as many soldiers as me, how could my nephew be so distracted? Xie An laughed, stood up, walked away with his hands behind his back, until he reached the east window, gazed at the beautiful garden outside, shook his head and said: No!Nephew Xuan, because of your uneasy mood, you can't understand Fu Jian's weakness. He has lost the right time and the right place, and he lacks harmony. The last loss is the key to his downfall.As long as we can make good use of it, his Great Qin will collapse, and my Great Jin is expected to restore Middle Earth.

Xie Xuan remained motionless, his eyes flashed with lightning, staring at Uncle Nai's suave and unrestrained back, and said in a deep voice: "Second Uncle, please give me some pointers." Xie An calmly said: "My Dajin is the new year, with good weather and good harvests. He Fu Jian fought in the north for years, and the fertile fields were turned into scorched earth. Production was abandoned. He had just unified the north, and his position was not stable. He used a large number of troops when the time was not ripe."This is lost time. Then he turned around leisurely and said with a smile: Fu Jian labored on an expedition and crossed the frontier and was blocked by rivers. I was in danger of the Yangtze River and separated the north and the south. This is lost ground.

Then he walked over to Xie Xuan, sat down again, and said happily: The reason why Fu Jian was able to win the northern world is because of the implementation of the policy of harmony and Rong, and he took everything from the ministers and generals of all ethnic groups. The tiger is the fruit of trouble.Although its army is said to be in the millions, it is patchwork, or forced to come, and its combat effectiveness seems to be strong but weak.I firmly believe that people like Zhu Xu are in the heart of the Qin army and want to advance to me.In the final analysis, my Da Jin is still the orthodox of the Central Plains. Although I leaned to the left of Anjiang, I didn't make any big mistakes.This time when foreign enemies invade, we are all in the same boat, so we have to unite and defend against foreign aggression together.As for the generals under Fu Jian's command, they each have their own heavy troops, Murong Chui, Yao Chang, etc. are all rebellious people, how can they be willing to be other people's subjects?This is unharmonious, I gain and the other loses.Therefore, as long as Nephew Xuan implements a strategy of division and separation based on this point, not only will he be able to fully understand the opponent's false and true arrangements, but he can also plan to make a move later, defeat Di Qin in one fell swoop, and eliminate the great trouble in the north. Xie Xuan's eyes were shining brightly, he nodded and said: Nephew Xuan is taught, so should we confront him head-on? A smile escaped from the corner of Xie An's lips, and he said calmly: You are a general on the front line, and you are far better than me in battle, and you are in charge of everything.Nominally, your third uncle Xie Shi is the commander in chief, but in fact all specific combat matters are under your command.This battle should be quick rather than slow. If Fu Jian's troops are allowed to stand on the river and stand firm, because of the huge disparity in the number of troops, our Jin court lives in comfort for a long time, and even villains like Sima Daozi take advantage of the wind and rain, and they will be defeated without a fight.go!The survival of Dajin will depend on your thoughts, don't forget how you lost the previous game. Xie Xuan stood up straight, bowed to Xie An respectfully, and said solemnly: "Xiao Xuan is taught." Xie An still sat still, his eyes shot a complicated and incomprehensible look, he let out a breath and said: If we win this battle, the prestige and status of my Xie family will climb to an unprecedented peak. This is exactly what I have been avoiding. Drinking and chatting in Wuyi Lane, composing poems and writing essays, full of family love, the peaceful and romantic life of poetry and wine, will never return.Take good care of Yan'er and give him more opportunities to practice. Xie Xuan nodded and said: Xiao Xuan understands.Quietly exit the hall.Sunlight splashed in from the east window, and Xie An seemed to melt into the beautiful and peaceful environment in the pavilion. No one could perceive from his expression that the great war that related to the survival of the Han people was swirling from the north like a tornado. Xie Xuan stepped out of the bookstore, and Xie Yan, who was waiting outside the storehouse with Xie Shi, rushed to Xie Xuan's side, and asked in a deep voice: What do you want to say, dad? Xie Xuantan grabbed the thick shoulders of his cousin who was deeply related to the handsome Xie family, and suddenly smiled with relief, and said softly: Let's go sightseeing in the mountains and rivers! Even with Yan Fei's famous swordsmanship, he still didn't dare to block more than twenty powerful arrows from the strong bows of the Xiongnu warriors who were proficient in riding and shooting. Yan Fei laughed, and moved to the right swiftly, dodging the first round of arrow rain, and slammed his shoulder into a locked wooden door of a shop opposite the first floor, his movements were smooth and elegant. Knowing that Juqu Mengxun had sneaked into the border wasteland secretly, he no longer needed to be brave, but he could still contain the four coalition forces, making it difficult for them to pursue the fleeing Han people and Han gangs.Because Juqu Mengxun would never allow a master who might assassinate Fu Jian to hide somewhere in the collection. Compared with the serious troubles of the confidants who want to get rid of, killing a group of fleeing Han people is just a trivial matter. boom! Under the impact of his shoulder full of innate innocence, he pierced through the solid wooden door like a thin piece of paper, revealing a large hole in the shape of a human being. He has already entered the abandoned rectangular grocery store, filled with miscellaneous items Things are everywhere, messy. There was a lot of shouting outside, hooves rattling and horses neighing, and the situation was chaotic. Several powerful arrows shot through the door, which showed the strength and viciousness of the Huns. Yan Fei didn't turn his head back, he dodged slightly sideways, easily dodged the arrow, and then swept towards the back door at full speed, trying to escape from the dangerous place before the enemy completed the encirclement net, otherwise he would end up fighting hard and dying miserably. At this moment, the back door of the shop in front of him turned into sawdust shooting towards him from the sky, and under the terrifying momentum of the sawdust splashing like rain, a giant heavy steel spear seemed to descend from eighteen layers of hell. It pierced straight into the human world, and rushed towards the vital point of his throat, but the spearhead was shining with golden light, which gave people an extremely strange feeling. Just seeing that the opponent can rush to the back door in time, intercept him before he escapes, and there is no warning before attacking, it can be seen that this person is a first-class master.Yan Fei suddenly thought of a person, and he couldn't help feeling stunned because he always regarded life and death as leisurely. Clang! Die Lianhua came out of its sheath, turned into a green awn, and quickly chopped off the tip of the spear. Die Lian Hua is three feet and eight inches in length. The body of the sword is covered with rhombus-shaped dark lines, and the inscription Die Lian Hua is inscribed with three characters in bird seal script. The handle of the sword is about half a foot away, and then retracts in an arc until the edge of the sword protrudes again and then retracts to form a sharp point. It's not that Yan Fei doesn't know the best strategy at this time, he might as well use his strength to let the opponent pass by, then he can clear the way ahead and escape through the back door, but the opponent's spear is really shocking. , pressing towards him with such vigor as a mountain, the air around him seemed to be drained at once, not to mention letting go of his spear, it is still unknown whether he can block it, so he had no choice but to shake it hard, compare and see who is stronger real stuff. This is not to say that Yan Fei can't keep up with the opponent, but that the opponent is gaining momentum, but he is in a hurry to meet the urgent situation. As Die Lianhua slashed forward, the sawdust was blown away by the sword energy and flew horizontally, like a stream of water being split in the middle, not splashing on Yan Fei at all. when! Yan Fei was shaken all over, even though he hit the spearhead, he was still involuntarily driven backward by the force of the spear. boom! The front door splashed down like powder, revealing a pockmarked face and shawl, neither tall nor short but broad shoulders and thick neck thick neck Xiongnu villain, holding a sharp giant ax weighing at least fifty catties in each of his left and right hands, drinking violently upon seeing this With a sound, the twin axes rolled back and forth like wheels and struck at the back of Yan Fei, who was drifting away, without holding back his hand at all, trying to kill Yan Fei. Yan Fei knew that he would fall into such a dangerous situation where there was a tiger at the back door and a wolf at the front door. His retreat was to dissipate the strength of the people coming from the back door in the shortest possible time so as to deal with the surprise attack from the front door. The enemy at the back door appeared, his chin and lips were covered with a short iron gray beard, like a big brush, but the top of his head was bald, his face was unusually pale, his eyes were cold, as if No matter what you see, you are still indifferent.The body is tall and thin, but the hands holding the spear seem to possess endless strength. Yan Fei was in a bad mood, he had already recognized who the opponent was from their weapons and appearance, Gao Yan's so-called intelligence that was worth an ingot of gold was only half fulfilled, these two people are well-known in the north, no one can step on them The feet and feet can vibrate and gather. The person who wielded the double axes was Gao Yan, who was known as a handsome man, and Juqu Mengxun, one of Fu Jian's fierce generals; The most outstanding Xianbei master other than Qi Fu Guoren is bald and black. Ding! Yan Fei made a backhand sword, and to the surprise of Juqu Mengxun, he hit the giant ax he struck first. Two completely different and contradictory true qi, one soft and the other hard, penetrated the ax and attacked the body, and Juqu Mengxun Xun's astonishing skill, he was surprised when he was caught off guard, the strength of the ax was completely removed, one ax was empty and useless, and the other ax was full of strength, one light and one heavy, extremely uncomfortable, As a last resort, I had to move sideways. The soldiers from the Xiongnu Gang rushed in three or four people at the moment when the two were fighting each other. Seeing that Juqu Mengxun was frustrated and moved away, he immediately filled the vacant seat, greeted Yan Fei with swords, spears and swords, and did not allow him to breathe Chance. Yan Fei knew that he was in a desperate situation, but he was still unafraid, suddenly turned around and swung his sword, and drew a sword that seemed ordinary. At this time, the bald-haired Wugu transformed into shadows of spears all over the sky, and attacked Yan Fei overwhelmingly. Seeing that he succeeded, he didn't know that Yan Fei's Butterfly Love Flower came, no matter how he changed, he still hit the opponent's spear point again, and immediately Unable to continue, I am even more afraid that the opponent will take advantage of the momentum to pursue, break through the gap, and retreat a little with the spear. The other Xiongnu warriors were also struck by various weapons, only to feel that the strength contained in the opponent's blade was very strange. Not only did they wipe out their own strength, but they were also forced to retreat miserably by the energy that could break the heart. Juqu Mengxun yelled vigorously, reorganized his formation, moved his ax and attacked again, but Yan Fei's sword was inflated violently, only the sound of clanging was heard continuously, in the blink of an eye, Yan Fei seemed to be about to fight with him. Juqu Mengxun stabbed seven swords in a row at a relatively fast speed, and the swords hit his left and right axes respectively, sealing off all his attacking moves and forcing him away again. However, Yan Fei knows his own family affairs, and the bald-haired Wugu and Juqu Mengxun are well-deserved names. He tried his best, but he still couldn't hurt any of them, and the loss of his true energy was huge, so he couldn't last long. If people join forces, he will definitely die. Soldiers from the Xiongnu gang poured in like a tide at the front gate, while the back gate was still guarded by a bald-haired Wugu, and it was as solid as an iron wall.In an instant, he knew clearly that the only way to survive was to risk his own disability and pass through the bald-haired Wugu level. The sword turned at will, Die Lianhua turned into a rain of swords in the sky, and the baldness disappeared like a stormy sea. Wu Gu sprinkled it away. The bald-haired Wugu looked just right, and the Wanlian golden spear turned into heavy golden spear shadows. When he was about to face it head-on, a look of horror appeared on his face, and he moved sideways to make way for him. A burly man A man in gray with a black hood appeared behind him, with a knife in each of his left and right hands.And because of his attack from behind, the bald-haired Wu Gu retreated in a hurry. The man shouted in a deep voice: Yan Fei! Yan Fei didn't dare to hesitate, so he slashed the bald-haired Wu Gu with his sword again, pumped up his energy with all his strength, and rushed into the backyard with the savior like lightning, jumped over the backyard wall, and fled.
