Meng Huo hurried for a long time and turned a mountain pass. A wild forest appeared in front of him. The torches in front of the forest were dazzling. Dozens of wild soldiers surrounded the four people and stood under the big tree. Those four were Liu Xun, Zhu Rong, Wei Yan, and Meng You stood in turn from left to right. Meng You's body was tied with five flowers, and a rag was stuffed in his mouth. When he saw Meng Huo, he hummed and shook his head, not knowing what he wanted to say.
Meng Huo looked furious and shouted, "Quickly let go of my brother!"
Liu Xun, wearing golden armor, holding the cloud sword in his left hand and the Beidou spear in his right hand, asked, "Where are the things I want? Don't you want to redeem your brother Meng You?"
Meng Huo furiously said, "I can't get those things you want in a moment!"
Liu Xun sneered and said, "Then don't blame me for being polite. Come on, let's kill Meng You!"
Wei Yanying said: "Nuo!" As he said, holding the big knife, taking a step back, and turning his wrist, a bright steel knife was placed on the back of Meng You's neck. Knowing that he would die, Meng You simply closed his eyes and put on a posture of seeing death as his home. But Meng You seemed to be unwilling, and the expression on his face was distorted.
Meng was eager to rescue people, but he had no idea at all. He hurriedly asked: "Liu Xun, those things can't be gathered in a moment. You are not deliberately making things difficult for people, you What do you want to do?"
Liu Xun smiled and said: "Oh, you still make terms with me. I will admit the money, let me go if I have money, and kill Meng Youzai if I don’t have money. It’s that simple. Don’t worry, I’m very disciplined. , As long as you get all the ransom, I will release the people immediately.
Meng Huo gritted his teeth with anger, with blue veins protruding from his forehead, but his younger brother was throwing a rat restraint in his hand, so he didn't dare to move forward, so he had to say: "Your set time is too tight. You have two days of tolerance. I will go back and clean up. ."
Liu Xun said irritably, "I let you go back to gather the tribes to surrender. But you did some tricks for me to make me look good. Fortunately, I saw through your tricks. I don’t know where I’m crying. Now you’re saying you want to go back to clean up. Could it be that you want to slow me down with nice words, and then use your tricks."
Meng Huo hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I won't do it this time, I won't do it this time. I must bring the things written in Qi Xin's book for delivery. The general must be brooding about my unwillingness to submit. This time I sincerely surrendered and returned to the general, and no longer be an enemy of the Han army."
Liu Xun looked at Meng Huo slantingly, and said, "I use your brother to force you to submit, but you will definitely not accept it if you want to come."
Meng Huo looked at the dazzling steel knife on the back of Meng You’s neck, with a cold sweat, and quickly said, “I’ve taken it, taken it, I’m really convinced.” He was really not convinced at this time, so this The words are quite insincere.
Liu Xun smiled and said, "You know that you are dissatisfied with your weird appearance, so." Speaking of looking back at the soldiers behind him, Lu Ma led by one of the soldiers walked out. Liu Xun took the reins and flew on the horse. .
Liu Xun threw away the Beidou spear in his hand, drew out the cloud sword and used the sword technique he had realized, with endless moves, like running clouds and flowing water, and his whole body was covered in a curtain of light in an instant. When everyone saw him, they couldn't help feeling that he knew what he knew and got the essence of it, and couldn't help but feel admired.
Liu Xun danced, his brows danced, and suddenly he diverged his power. He swung his sword at an angle and slashed across his brain, cutting off the cyan silk scarf tied with his bun, and his hair was immediately scattered. This sword can be regarded as close to the extreme, if it is a little bit inward, his brain will be cut out by the sword's edge, and he will die. Liu Xun was taken aback and hurriedly put away his sword, put the sword across his chest, and said embarrassingly: "Meng Huo, you always say that I use tricks. Today we will put it right one-on-one. If I win you, you must Really submit to it, and you cannot regenerate it."
Meng Huo looked at him sideways and asked, "But what you said is true?"
Liu Xun smiled and said, "Of course it is true."
Meng Huo said, "You are all standing next to you, do you want to make money for me and attack them?"
Liu Xun said, "You have to win the glory, and you have to lose beautifully. It is not a good guy who wants people to help." Immediately after finishing the policy, he went out for a few meters, stopped, and said to Zhu Rong and the others: "You guys. Twenty steps back." Zhu Rong and others backed back as they said.
Liu Xun turned his head and said, "How about it, it's always okay."
Meng Huo said in his heart: "He is just a young man, so he wants to come and compete with me. I really want to live and die. I want to come and play with his guards, and his men let him. Therefore, he thinks that he is self-righteous and thinks. I'm invincible with my magical powers, haha! After catching him, Meng You will be in no danger, and he will be able to give out the bad breath I have been in for days." Thinking of this, he raised his broadsword and was about to start fighting, and then he thought: "No. Liu Xun is scheming. Maybe he has a superb sword skill, but he deliberately pretended to be incapable of using a sword in front of me, trying to lure me into being fooled." Thinking of this, he had scruples and looked at Liu Xun. Unfathomable and deep, there is a bit of a feeling in my heart, if my heart does not save his brother, but takes his own life, it will not be worthwhile, and said: "How do you plan to compare?"
Liu Xun smiled slightly and said, "Whatever you want, you can compare love. I'm afraid you won't make it? Last time I wanted you to see my swordsmanship. I didn't expect you to run too fast. I didn't even cross the river. You didn't know. Where did it go. Now that you and I are here, we will have a good fight, so that you can see how powerful my cloud sword is!"
Meng Huo, the head of the cloud sword, had never heard of it before, and when he heard him speak out, he was more frightened, and the hand holding the knife was trembling slightly.
Liu Xun saw that he was speechless for a while, and he didn't speak, he crossed his sword to his chest and smiled slightly. After another moment, Liu Xun couldn't bear it, and said, "It's because you dare not compete with me. I'm going to come and kill you. Don't you hurry up and get out of here!"
Meng Huo said in his heart: "You have the ability to kill, why don't you rush over? It seems that you are arrogant again. Furthermore, my brother Meng You has fallen into the enemy's hands. "With a grin, he swiped a big sword in his hand, and then he moved forward.
Liu Xun's face was panicked, and he said, "Oh, you are not fooled, I want to return!" After he turned his head, he turned around and ran.
Meng Huo shouted loudly: "Liu Xunxun go!" urged the cow to step forward. After a while, watch to catch up. At this moment, Lu Ma, where Liu Xun was sitting, stumbled, knelt down and screamed. Liu Xun was caught off guard, almost fell off the horse, and shouted loudly: "Niemu, how dare you hurt me!"
Meng Huo was overjoyed when he saw it, struggling to catch up, and shouted: "Heaven helps me..." Before the voice fell, he stepped into a pit, and he fell into a pit with a cow, and fell into a dog to eat shit.
Zhu Rong and the others rushed forward, dragged Meng Huo up, and bound them with ropes. Liu Xun rode his horse forward and said with a smile: "Meng Dawang, are you convinced this time?"
Meng Huo turned his head and said, "I don't accept it!"
Zhu Rong lifted his foot, kicked Meng Huo, and said angrily: "I've been caught seven times and I still refuse to accept it! If I were you, I would be ashamed to death."
Meng Huo said: "Liu Xun actually uses tricks, he has no real skills, how can I be convinced!"
Liu Xun disdainfully said: "If you said I used tricks, you didn't want to rob my camp, but you didn't succeed. Soldiers also tricked, you don't need tricks, how can you call fighting? You didn't practice your own kung fu, and you missed it. , Who is the blame?"
Meng Huo was speechless, simply refused to answer, and glared.
Liu Xun said, "If I let you go again, what shall you do?"
Meng Huo said: "You let me go back this time, and I will reorganize my soldiers and horses, and I will definitely report the hatred of being captured seven times!"
Liu Xun heartily said, "I've caught this guy seven times... I haven't surrendered even seven times... God, I don't want to be like this, this guy is really a smelly and hard stone in the pit..." he waved his hand and said: "Untie and let go. You didn't bring gold and silver treasures. Lao Tzu's spirit was hit hard, and this banquet was not set. Just like that, you go back to the silver pit and prepare your soldiers and horses, read more military books, and come again. Fight."
Meng Huo said: "Next time you get me, I am convinced."
Liu Xun looked depressed and said, "Don't have another time, I'm already frothing at the mouth."
At this moment, Meng You was unbound by Wei Yan, and walked forward, embarrassed, and sighed, speechless. Meng Huo gave him an angry look, turned around, and left without looking back.
Three days later, Liu Xun crossed Lushui and captured Yunnan City. Due to days of hard fighting, the soldiers were tired and unable to fight again, so they had to rest in the city. While Liu Xun ordered the soldiers to rest, he prepared food and equipment and prepared for battle. Sometimes Liu Xun went to see soldiers and sometimes sat in front of the case, holding the "Historical Records" policy in his hand, and had a good time.
But Meng Huo and others are not in such a good mood. After being released that day, Meng Huo and others rushed back to Yin Hangdong overnight. There are three rivers outside the cave: Lushui, Gannanshui, and Xichengshui. The three rivers meet, so they are called Sanjiang. The north of the cave is nearly flat for more than 300 miles, the land is fertile, rich in products, and fertile. There are salt wells in the west of the cave for more than three hundred miles, which are rich in salt. Three hundred miles in the southwest, reaching Lu and Gan. Three hundred miles to the south, it is Liangdu Cave. There is a mountain in the cave, which surrounds the cave. Silver mines appear on the mountain, so it is called Yinkeng Mountain. Meng Huo spent a lot of manpower, financial and material resources in the mountains to build the palace platform, which was very luxurious and used as his own barbarian king's lair. An ancestral temple was also built in it, known as the "House Ghost". Every season, oxen and horses are killed to enjoy the sacrifice, which is called "divine ghosts".
Every year, local people in Shu area or outsiders are often used as sacrifices, which is very cruel. People here are sick. They don’t look at the doctor, and they refuse to take medicine. They only pray to the sorceress, called "medicine ghost." And there are no laws or regulations. The guilt is determined by the patriarch. Rice is planted in a good year; if the harvest is not good and the food is not enough to eat, kill snakes for soup and cook elephants for food. On the first and fifteenth days of every month, the people of Nanban trade in Sanjiang City, exchanging goods...
