Chapter 22 Killing the Beggar Gang
After passing Li Qiushui's test, Ling Chen did not stay in Xixia for too long. After obtaining the time for Tianshan Tonglao to be reborn, he bid farewell to Li Qiushui and left. He was preparing to wait until the time for Tianshan Tonglao to be reborn, and then go to Lingjiu Palace where Tianshan Tonglao is located to help the senior sisters relieve their hatred for many years...
On the way back to the Song Dynasty from Xixia, when he was about to reach the border between Xixia and the Song Dynasty, Ling Chen suddenly heard a noise in front of him, as if there were many people fighting.
"Is it Xixia and Dasong fighting? But the sound seems to be small in number!" Ling Chen was also very surprised at this moment. Driven by curiosity, he walked towards the place where your voice came from. Anyway, he was already a top master in the martial arts world at this moment. He just took a look at what happened, be careful, and not worried about any accidents.
"It was indeed the soldiers of the Xixia who were fighting with the people of the Song Dynasty. However, these guys from the Song Dynasty, judging from their clothes and skills, they should not be soldiers of the Song Dynasty, but martial arts people in the Song Dynasty!" Ling Chen quickly found the source of all this with the sound. It was dozens of Western Xia soldiers in armor and several people in black. These men in black should be all people in the martial arts world of the Song Dynasty. Although the number of soldiers in Xixia was the dominant one, they gradually showed some defeat against some of the guys who were defeated by these guys.
"Oh, looking at this, it should be these martial arts people from the Song Dynasty who came to assassinate the senior leaders of Xixia. Now they have attracted the counterattack of Xixia soldiers. Let them fight enough, I still have to hurry on my way!" Ling Chen simply saw the situation here and was no longer interested. After all, this is the case in this world. The relationship between different countries is naturally mortal enemies. However, in Ling Chen's view of the 21st century, these battles are just internal conflicts among the Chinese nation. Besides, his arrival in the Tianlong world has changed a lot enough, and there is no need to take action at this time. His mission is just to make up for the regrets of this world.
But when Ling Chen was about to leave, the battle alone attracted him in the melee. After a while, he saw that it was the leader of the soldiers on the Xixia side. At this moment, the soldiers on the Xixia side were defeated by the black-clothed martial arts people in the Song Dynasty. Only this leader supported the defeat and injured two black-clothed men from the Song Dynasty. This different skill naturally attracted Ling Chen. After a while, he found that the leader of the Xixia soldier was actually the leader of the imperial guards who wanted to arrest him when he came to Xixia - Li Yanzong!
"I'm dizzy, how could it be him!" Seeing that Li Yanzong was actually the leader of the group of soldiers in Xixia, Ling Chen also started to have a headache. If it were someone else, he would never care about this little business, because the war between Xixia and the Song Dynasty had little to do with him, but if it were an old acquaintance, he would not care about it.
Although Li Yanzong almost killed his life because he misunderstood that he was a rebel, when Li Qiushui sent someone to save him, and after all the misunderstandings were explained clearly, he had no resentment towards Li Yanzong. Later, Ling Chen learned from Li Qiushui that Li Yanzong was also a confidant she trained. She promoted him and taught him some of the martial arts secrets he collected in his early years. Therefore, Li Yanzong's martial arts skills were so high, and he would never interfere after learning that Ling Chen was the person Li Qiushui was looking for.
Thinking of Li Qiushui's care for him over the past six months, Ling Chen also made up his mind and decided to go to this muddy water to help Li Yanzong with his help.
Just as Ling Chen made up his mind, the battle situation below also changed. The group of Xixia soldiers led by Li Yanzong had been beaten by all the black-clad people in the Song Dynasty. Li Yanzong also killed two black-clad people, but he was also injured. Now he was besieged by the remaining two black-clad people, and it seemed that they couldn't last long!
"I'm so dizzy, I actually fought so quickly!" Ling Chen was also surprised by the sudden change. He immediately did not dare to delay any more and rushed towards the two men in black.
"Li Yanzong, please dodge!" Because he wanted to fight quickly, Ling Chen directly used Lingbo's microstep to cooperate with the Baihong palm power to attack the two men in black.
"What..." Li Yanzong was also surprised when he heard someone calling him, but before he could come back to his senses, he saw a black shadow flashing in front of him. Then Ling Chen's palms had already hit the two men in black and knocked them away.
"It's you!" At this moment, Li Yanzong saw clearly the face of the black shadow. When he saw clearly that the person came was the little guy who was almost killed at his hands and was taken away by the princess (Li Qiushui) behind him, he was also shocked!
"General Li, solve the enemy first, and we will reminisce about the past later!" Because he was not sure about the identity of his opponent, Ling Chen did not want to delay too long to avoid any sudden changes in the matter, so he immediately said to Li Yanzong.
"Okay..." After Ling Chen reminded him, Li Yanzong immediately held the sword in his hand and rushed towards the two men in black.
These two martial arts masters from the Song Dynasty did not expect that Li Yanzong would suddenly appear as a helper like Ling Chen, so they could not dodge at the time and were hit by Ling Chen with his palm.
Although Ling Chen had only been studying with Li Qiushui for half a year, he was talented and had already saved Wuyazi's internal strength for seventy years in the past six months. He also learned Li Qiushui's little Wuxianggong. His casual palm actually had the powerful force to smash the rocks. Therefore, after these two men in black were hit by him, they could not move for a short time and were easily killed by Li Yanzong with a sword.
"Brother Ling, it's been a long time since I saw you. I didn't expect you to save me this time. Thank you very much!" After dealing with the remaining two men in black, Li Yanzong also looked at Ling Chen with great gratitude. As the confidant Li Qiushui cultivated, he also learned Ling Chen's name from the armored beauty Liang Yan, and understood that Ling Chen should be his own person.
"General Li is polite. By the way, who are these guys? Why do you come to the border to fight them on the border?" Ling Chen also looked at Li Yanzong and asked curiously. Although he guessed that these men in black should be martial arts people from the Song Dynasty, Ling Chen had no way to know their identity at this moment. After all, he has no knowledge of the world at this moment, so naturally it is impossible to judge his identity by the martial arts moves used by these men in black.
"They are members of the Beggars' Sect of the Song Dynasty. This time they went to our Xixia to steal military secrets. My team happened to find them, so I led a team of people to chase them here. Who knew they had two helpers here, so I got to fight here!" Li Yanzong did not hide from Ling Chen and said to him directly.
"What did you say, the Beggars' Sect's people, would you admit it wrong?" Ling Chen was stunned when he heard Li Yanzong's words. He had previously guessed that these men in black were just a group of ordinary people from the Song Dynasty martial arts world, and he never guessed that they were actually Beggars' Sect's people. If Qiao Feng knew about this, he would continue to treat him as his brother, and how should he change his destiny!
"I won't admit my mistake. This guy is the new elder of the Beggars' Sect - Quan Guanqing. These guys are his hard-core brothers, and they seem to be eight or nine-bag disciples of the Beggars' Sect. I have dealt with them several times. This guy also wants to obtain information privately to improve his status in the Beggars' Sect so that he can be the leader of the Beggars' Sect, so I will never admit my mistake!" Li Yanzong said with certainty at Ling Chen!
"This guy is Quan Guanqing!" Ling Chen, who was originally very guilty, heard that the man in black who was removed by him and Li Yanzong was actually Quan Guanqing of the Beggars' Sect, and the guilt completely disappeared.
Ling Chen, who has read the original work of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", knows very well that Quan Guanqing is the number one villain of the Beggars' Sect. In order to be the leader of the Beggars' Sect, he colluded with Kang Min, the wife of the deputy leader of the Beggars' Sect, and teamed up to frame Qiao Feng, announcing his identity as a Khitan, and stole Qiao Feng's folding fan, wrongly accusing him of killing the Beggars' Sect. Later, he used Zhuang Juxian (You Tanzhi) to seize the position of the Beggars' Sect's leader in order to completely control the Beggars' Sect. Because of his various actions, he almost completely destroyed the Beggars' Sect.
Thinking of Quan Guanqing's various villain behaviors, Ling Chen was no longer guilty of killing him, but instead felt that he had angered for Qiao Feng, the sworn brother. Although Quan Guanqing has not done anything yet, Ling Chen knew from Li Yanzong's words that Quan Guanqing already had the ambition to seize the position of leader of the Beggars' Sect, so it would not be a bad thing to eliminate him earlier.
Dada dada...
Just as Ling Chen was discussing the identities of these men in black with Li Yanzong, a sound of horse hooves came from afar.
"In this direction, it seems that there are still people who are supporting him!" When he confirmed that the sound of horse hooves came from the Song Dynasty, Li Yanzong also had a serious expression and said to Ling Chen.
"It seems that this matter is indeed quite troublesome. The number and identity of the other party are still unknown. General Li, it is better to go back to the city to gather soldiers to defend the defense first!" Ling Chen said to him seriously.
"But I'm afraid there is too late. Here is still some distance away from our defenders' garrison. The group of people came to see Quan Guanqing and their bodies and found that they would definitely rush to chase us soon after they died!" Li Yanzong thought about it carefully and denied Ling Chen's method.
"Then let them lose sight. General Li, quickly dispose of the bodies of these guys, and then go find reinforcements. I will lead the group of people away!" Ling Chen said, then grabbed the armor of a fallen soldier in Xixia, put it on himself, and ran towards the place where the sound of horse hooves came. It was obvious that he was planning to make bait and lead the reinforcements by himself.
"Brother Ling..." It was too late for Li Yanzong to stop him. He learned Ling Chen's body technique so quickly. He had just run a hundred meters away in a moment. At this time, stopping him will only delay more time. Maybe both of them will lose here.
Thinking of this, Li Yanzong had to grit his teeth and quickly deal with the bodies of his Quan Guanqing and his group, and pray for Ling Chen in his heart...
