Chapter 944 Chapter 944: Encounter on a narrow road (Part 2) [Please vote]

 “Ah ah ah, I remembered it!”

 The caravan guards slapped their thighs and shouted.

 “It’s Nishinomiya Ball!”

 “Shit, what is Xigongqiu? They call it Gongxiqiu!”

These caravan guards all retired from the army. They were either old or had hidden injuries and were unfit to continue fighting. In addition, Shen Tang wanted to reform the military system, so they thought over and over again and chose to retire. Some people still have relatives at home and received subsidies to return to their ancestral home to marry and have children. Some people are alone and feel the same wherever they stay, so they choose to work as guards for caravans.

 Kang Guo treated his veterans well.

The Royal Court has a specialized organization to collect intelligence on these veterans and introduce them to suitable jobs. Being a guard for a caravan has high returns, but the risks are also relatively high. If you work as a postman at a post station in various places, the pay will be relatively low, but the advantage is stability and safety.

 Besides these, there are other destinations.

 The most popular areas for employment are departments under the Ministry of Industry.

 Therefore, these guards had seen Gong Xiqiu before the formation. To be precise, they had seen Gong Xiqiu’s martial arts totem and had an impression.

“…He doesn’t seem to be calling Qiu, is he Qiu?”

“No, no, I won’t remember it wrong…”

Several people argued but couldn’t come up with a unified answer. Instead, the head of the caravan spoke up: “… Well, it doesn’t matter what it’s called. What’s important is that the Gongxi Qiu you talk about really wants to play ball!”

The guards were quiet for a moment, looked at each other, and divided their respective tasks based on the tacit understanding of fighting side by side for many years. One person transformed into a war horse on the spot: “You guys, please protect the caravan’s goods. This place is not far from Jinli County. I’ll be back as soon as I go!”

Gong Xiqiu had the false title of general in the state of Kang.

Although he has no real power, the honored general suffered a disaster here, and the matter must be reported to the local Zhechong government. They also knew that they were very weak and it was difficult to even get close. A single blow could seriously injure all of them, let alone help Gong Xiqiu get out of trouble. The only thing that could be done was to go to the local Zhechong Mansion as quickly as possible to report the news, maybe it would still be possible in time.

As soon as Yi Cheng saw the direction, he shouted to stop him.

 “Don’t go this way!”

Looking at this movement, the official road ahead is going to be in trouble.

 The guards rushed over, fearing that they might even lose their lives.

“Yi Cheng, please show me the way.”

 Taking the Guan Road is the fastest way. If you take a detour, you don’t know how much time will be wasted. The guard was anxious, and without waiting for Yi Cheng to show the way, a young man in red clothes walked out from among the rangers. Although he is said to be a boy, he actually has the physique of a young man. However, his clear eyes, red lips and white teeth subtly lower his age, making people judge him to be younger at first glance.

 “This strong man, what do you think his name is?”

The guard wanted to scold him and tell him to go away and stop causing trouble, but the moment he met those eyes, the anxiety in his heart was drained away, and he said calmly: “His name is Gong Xiqiu.”

 He spoke firmly and resolutely.

Unexpectedly, the corners of the mouths of the young man in cloth and the people next to him twitched.

Gong Xi Qiu lost his real name!

The well-dressed young man looked up and looked at the sharp claws of the horned eagle in the distance, which shrank and dug into the body of the giant python, tearing off a large piece of flesh and blood. The scales of the snake were flying, and the faint movement of muscles could be seen. The giant python did not sit still and wait for death. Instead, the python’s body flew out and tried to wrap around the horned eagle’s neck, but the latter flapped its wings and flew by, narrowly passing by and exploding several **** ink feathers. There are also two martial arts, one green and one black, using the bodies of the two giant beasts as the battlefield, erupting from time to time with terrifying explosions.

 “Gongxiqiu, Gongxi…”

The well-dressed young man murmured twice.

Following that, he turned to look at his companions and asked for confirmation: “Uncle Lin, is this person a member of the tribe who is living abroad?”

 He knew about the existence of Gong Xiqiu a long time ago.

 Fang Yan and Chao Lian mentioned it to themselves.

 But he was still ignorant at that time. Even though Gong Xiqiu was a clansman, it meant nothing to him. Even the teacher Jimo Yu didn’t care, so why should he care? Now that the teacher’s merits have been fulfilled, Gong Xiqiu has become the only clan member.

Any existence with the word “only” has a special meaning, and I can’t just watch from the sidelines.

Uncle Lin nodded: “Yeah.”

 I just didn’t expect to meet you here.

Fang Yan looked at the battlefield in the distance and thought more comprehensively: “Shao Bai, Gong Xiqiu is a warlike person. We don’t know whether he has met an enemy or is discussing with others one-on-one. Interfering rashly may not be helpful. In the end, The important thing is this formation…”

 It turned out that only Gong Xiqiu was beaten.

 The well-dressed boy used to be beaten together.

Chao Lian put his hand on his forehead to avoid the dazzling sunlight so that he could see more carefully: “Gong Xiqiu’s opponent is not very young either. Every move he makes goes straight to Gong Xiqiu’s vital points. He comes here with the intention of risking his life. It can’t be a competition. Tsk, I think back then Gong Xiqiu defeated our brothers alone, and now we have ended up in such an embarrassing situation. The northwest continent has been very lively in the past few years.”

 I have never heard of anyone who can compete with Gong Xiqiu before.

 As for Shen Youli?

 She doesn’t count.

After all, Gong Xiqiu is still a human being, and there are traces of his growth path. Shen Jun is completely beyond the scope of normal people’s understanding.

Shao Chong on the side frowned, not very happy.

Chao Lian asked him with concern: “What’s wrong, Thirteen?”

Shaochong crossed his arms and rubbed them: “I don’t know why, I feel a little uncomfortable when I see that snake. I always feel pain all over.”

Chao Lian: “…”

Even though Shisan has lost his previous memories, his body still remembers the experience of being almost beaten to death by Gong Xiqiu, so no wonder he feels uncomfortable.

Shaochong licked his lips: “Brother Twelve.”

Chao Lian responded: “What’s wrong?”

Shaochong seemed to be thinking about it: “Let’s eat snake soup tonight.”

Chao Lian: “…”

The well-dressed young man turned his hand into a weapon and said to Fang Yan, “It’s okay. I’ll ask him if he wants my help.”

 If you don’t want it, he will just watch from the sidelines.

The next moment, the young man flew away through the air, leaving a stream of red light in the air. Chao Lian and Fang Yan looked at each other and prepared to watch the battle at close range. Remember how arrogant and domineering Gongxi Qiu was? No matter where he goes on the battlefield, he is always the boss. It is rare to see him as a grandson. His good plays are rare and rare.

 Sishu Lin was the only one who had never seen Gong Xiqiu.

 He was not interested in watching the opponent being beaten.

 But he couldn’t stand it, so Shaochong carried the naughty boy and started racing.

 The oncoming strong wind blew ripples on Fourth Uncle Lin’s face: “Did I say I was going to watch the fun?”

 This rant could not be uttered.

 Because as soon as I opened my mouth, I was forced to take a mouthful of wind.

Whether it was Gong Xiqiu or Gong Cheng, both of them noticed a few strange auras coming towards them. The difference is that Gong Xiqiu can’t spare any extra attention to pay attention, while Gong Cheng can be distracted, but he doesn’t care. It was guessed that some brave warriors from nearby came to join in the fun. This kind of thing happens from time to time.

  Observing the confrontation between two courageous warriors at close range, even those with a little savvy can learn something. Perhaps this is the only chance to break through the bottleneck. However, some excitement cannot be ignored.

 Once affected, you will lose your life?

That is really a wasted death, and you can’t blame others.

No one expected that the strange and courageous warrior who was supposed to be watching the battle did not know how to keep his distance and instead rushed towards him.

Gong Cheng and Gong Xiqiu stopped and retreated at the same time.

 It was not because he was afraid of hurting anyone, but because the person who came had also taken action, forcing himself between the two of them, destroying the original balance. Gong Xiqiu was able to take a breath, while Gong Cheng squinted his eyes slightly, looking through the air waves generated by the collision of martial energy explosions. He could barely see the general appearance of the other party, and asked aloud: “What are you -“

 It stopped abruptly the moment the visitor turned his head to look.

 The visitor was dressed in a red outfit, which made his originally fair complexion more delicate and fair, and his facial features were deeper and more three-dimensional compared to ordinary people. Her long black hair is **** with a delicate crown, and there are many small braids mixed in the middle of the hanging hair.

The heaven is full, and the eyes are like paint.

 The corners of the lips seem to have a natural upward arc.

Despite his enthusiastic and public appearance, his temperament is restrained and gentle, like a sword decorated with luxurious gems. Don’t be disdainful because of your appearance. No one knows if there is a sharp tool for blowing and breaking hair in the scabbard!

These are not things Gong Cheng cares about.

 What he cares about is the boy’s appearance.

 This man’s appearance looks familiar.

At this moment, Gong Xiqiu, who was far behind the young man, also adjusted his breathing and raised his hand to wipe away the blood on his face. The wound was close to the eye. If it were any further away, the right eye might not be saved. Gong Xiqiu’s eyes were injured many years ago. When Gong Cheng fought with him, he found that Gong Xiqiu’s attacks in a certain direction would always cause a moment of stiffness.

　Uncontrolled distraction is the most taboo in a master duel.

Gong Cheng quickly seized the opportunity, and Gong Xiqiu also took this opportunity to counterattack at close range, leaving a scar deep enough to see the bones on Gong Cheng’s chest. Unfortunately, this scar was not fatal, and when he was powerful With the ability to recover, he would have healed long ago.

 “Are you also from the Gongxi clan?”

Gong Cheng’s eyes did not leave the young man’s face.

　　The tone of the statement is still affirmative.

 The young man asked him: “Are you sparring?”

Gong Cheng: “…”

The young man turned his back to Gong Xiqiu. Naturally, Gong Xiqiu couldn’t see his face, but that didn’t stop him from rolling his eyes at this stupid question: “Which of your eyes saw that this was a sparring match? Boy, don’t stay here in vain. Life, stay where you can!”

Gong Xiqiu’s voice was very fierce.

 One of the things that makes me feel bad is that I don’t want innocent people to lose their lives. Although he looked embarrassed now, Gong Xiqiu still had a way to escape. He wanted to find out as much as possible about Gong Cheng, know himself and his enemy and be victorious in every battle, so that he would have a better chance of winning when they meet in the future. Who knows that someone unknown to the world will suddenly appear.

 As for the boy’s dress?

Gong Xiqiu really didn’t think much about it.

As far as he knew, the boy from the Xu family named Xu Quan privately took the lead in forming a society called “Gong Xiqiu Conservation Association”. Coupled with the fact that some aristocratic families had some unknowing ideas, Gong Xiqiu’s dressing style became popular for a while. . Among the brave warriors in Kang State, four or five out of ten like to have their hair braided. The young man in front of me is probably someone who pursues fashion.

Gong Cheng’s response was to kill him with one palm.

Go straight to the face of the well-dressed young man.

Gong Xiqiu struck out with a weapon before the well-dressed boy could react. With Gong Cheng’s current strength, his palms were both invulnerable to weapons and capable of breaking gold and jade. The sharp blade of the snake halberd couldn’t penetrate Gong Cheng’s palm, but it was enough to repel him.

Gong Xiqiu caught the handsomely dressed young man behind him and did not look back. He held the snake halberd in front of him: “Why bother to feel sorry for the people on the road? Or, you are crazy. You always ask everyone you meet if they are from the Gongxi clan. ? How can there be so many people!”

　　It was a big misfortune for me to be encountered by him.

Gong Cheng was lucky enough to meet him.

 Haha, I bumped into you once, and you want to bump into me a second time?

Gong Cheng looked at him as if he was looking at a fool, or in other words, he thought Gong Xiqiu regarded him as a fool: “Passerby? Haha, Gong Xiqiu, do you think I am as blind as you?”

If you put these two faces together, do you dare to say that they have nothing to do with each other?

Gong Xiqiu felt that Gong Cheng was confused.

At this time, the handsomely dressed young man behind him stepped forward. The moment Gong Xiqiu saw his face clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he instantly understood why Gong Cheng suspected that the young man was also a member of the Gongxi clan. Without him, the young man’s appearance is 70-80% similar to mine!

 An idea raced in my mind.

 His ears rang with hallucinations of beating gongs, drums and setting off firecrackers.

 Great nephew! Great nephew! Great nephew! Great nephew…

 This person is definitely the eldest nephew!

 Gong Xiqiu felt the blood in his body boiling, and even the pain was forgotten in his mind. Seeing this, Gong Cheng knew that his guess was true.

 The handsomely dressed young man said: “I am indeed from the Gongxi clan.”

Gong Xiqiu’s hallucinations became louder, his heartbeat was like a drum, and his lips were dry. He had thousands of words to talk about the past with his eldest nephew.

At this time, I heard my eldest nephew say: “Since you are not fighting but seeking revenge, I cannot allow you to kill my people.”

Gong Xiqiu came back to his senses with firm eyes.

He grabbed his eldest nephew’s shoulder and said in a deep voice: “Eldest nephew, step back. This man can’t kill your second uncle or me. He was just playing with him. You go and wait elsewhere first. Let’s wait.” Uncle and nephew can go back and reminisce about old times, okay?”

The well-dressed young man looked at him blankly: “Second uncle?”

Fang Yan, Chao Lian and Fourth Uncle Lin who were watching the battle were also dumbfounded. They knew that they were of the same race, but they didn’t know that they were related. The Fang Yan brothers all looked to Fourth Uncle Lin for confirmation. Shao Chong asked in a low voice, “Is this true?”

Even though Fourth Uncle Lin has not yet answered, just looking at the appearance of these two people, the three of them felt that this was true. They were actually uncle and nephew!

Uncle Lin was at a loss for a moment.

Then he said: “When we went to the Gongxi clan area, we didn’t find any genealogy. We just saw a lit life lamp in a forbidden area… Jimo Yu said that the placement of the life lamp is also particular. Gongxi Qiu’s life lantern and Shaobai’s life lantern are very close to each other… maybe they are really uncles and nephews…”

 Despite this, Fourth Uncle Lin always felt that something was wrong.

 Can’t remember it for a while.

Chao Lian and Fang Yan sighed in low voices: “This fate…”

　　It’s really wonderful.

 Luckily they were nearby and came over, otherwise Gong Xiqiu would have been seriously injured today even if he had not died. Now that the uncle and nephew are teaming up to deal with Gong Cheng, even if they can’t win, they won’t let the other party get much benefit. At least, life is completely safe.

 If it’s not enough, why don’t we still have them?

 Shu Lin and Fang Yanke were both literary scholars.

The conversation between the few people was not concealed, and it naturally fell into the ears of the three people on the battlefield. Jimo Qiu’s eyes were dazed and confused for a moment.

“Are you really my second uncle?”
