Chapter 60 Crossing the Yellow River

Li Mochou suffered such a severe injury and was unable to hit the roof and escape. Instead, he fell from mid-air and fell to the ground paved with hard stone slabs. He made a loud "thump", and the ground in the hall seemed to tremble.

Blood kept flowing out of her mouth, and the apricot yellow collar on her chest was dyed red with a large amount of bright red blood. She raised her head and said to Lu Liding: "I didn't expect that I would actually die in Lujiazhuang. I really didn't expect."

Speaking of this, Li Mochou couldn't help coughing. What he coughed was not saliva but blood. It seemed that the blood had entered the lungs and affected his breathing. This was because a stream of internal force attached to Zhao Boduan's sword, which was stuck in the wound that pierced into her body, and was constantly damaging it. Guo Jing's palm was added. If it weren't for this, it would be difficult to keep her.

Li Mochou's beautiful face was twisted by pain, wrinkled into a ball, and some tears flowed down, which was particularly pitying. She begged in a low voice: "Lu Liding, you want to bury me and your brother together, and I hide his bones..." When she finally said the last few words, her voice was so low that it was inaudible, as if she was about to die in the next second.

Lu Liding was standing far away, but when he heard his elder brother's corpse fall behind, he approached a little. At this time, he couldn't hear Li Mochou tell the place and came to her, and asked loudly with anger: "Did you dug up my elder brother and sister-in-law's grave? Where did you put their corpse?"

Suddenly, Li Mochou opened his eyes, and these eyes became dark, full of death and seemed extremely crazy. She raised her left hand, and more than ten cold stars flew towards Lu Liding one step away, and laughed wildly: "Hahaha, Lu Zhanyuan, if you dare to let me down, you will bring your brother to see you together!" After that, she collapsed to the ground, without moving, without any sound.

This was too sudden. Lu Liding was too close to Li Mochou, and everyone couldn't stop him. Seeing that Lu Liding just used his sleeves to block most of the Ice Soul Silver Needles, but a few silver needles were tinging on his skin, which instantly made the back of his hand dark, as if it was dyed black by ink, and a strong smell of fishy smell rose in the air.

"I was negligent. Master Lu quickly find the antidote from Li Mochou!" Guo Jing immediately showed annoyance and said loudly.

Huang Rong took out a white jade bottle as big as a thumb and poured out a red pill that exuded a fragrance. Although the pill was only the size of mung beans and seemed inconspicuous, everyone was excited after smelling the fragrance of the medicine, showing that it was a very pill.

She said anxiously: "Master Lu quickly take this Jiuhua Yulu Pill to temporarily suppress the toxicity, and then I will find the antidote." After seeing Lu Liding take the pill, she walked carefully to Li Mochou, squatted down, and searched.

After Lu Liding took Jiuhua Yulu Pills, he found that the dark area on the back of his hand had not expanded, so he let go of half of his heart and said to the annoyed Guo Jing: "Hiss Guo doesn't have to do this. It's me who accidentally fell into this devil's plot, it has nothing to do with you."

Zhao Boduan also interrupted and said, "I didn't expect that Li Mochou is really like Chi Lian Snake. He is dead and even bites the owner of Manor Lu. This title is indeed not wrong."

After hearing Lu Liding's persuasion, Guo Jing's expression of shame dissipated most of the time. When he saw Zhao Boduan, he was a little dissatisfied with his sneak attack and said, "Young Master Zhao did something wrong in sneak attacks. You have to fight openly when facing the enemy. How can you sneak attack secretly? It's too inappropriate!"

Zhao Boduan didn't expect Guo Jing to blame him, and a fire of nameless arose in his heart. He was secretly annoyed and said, "This Li Mochou is vicious and destroys the whole family at every turn. If she can't keep her and let her run away, and attack Lujiazhuang again in the future, what should I do? Guo Daxia, you won't stay here all the time."

Guo Jing was speechless. After thinking about it, he nodded and said, "You are right. I didn't think it thoroughly. I'm sorry, brother! I was wrong just now."

Zhao Boduan was a little dumbfounded when he saw Guo Jing apologizing. Unexpectedly, Guo Jing had such a big demeanor. He couldn't help but admire him and bowed and said, "Hero Guo is really worthy of being a hero. He is the most dignified person I have ever seen. The name of this hero is truly worthy of his name!"

At this time, Huang Rong had already found the antidote and handed it to Lu Liding, asking him to take it and relieve the poison of the silver needle. She was a little unhappy and became happy when she heard a master with great martial arts admitting that her husband was a hero in person.

Lu Liding cut a small mouth on the back of his hand and squeezed out the black poisonous blood. After seeing the bright red blood, he felt relieved and thanked Guo Jing, Huang Rong and Zhao Boduan again: "Thank you for your help, otherwise Lujiazhuang would be unimaginable!"

The three of them returned the gifts one after another. Lu Liding also called a servant, bought a coffin, put Li Mochou's body in, and carried it away. He also cleaned the ground himself and carefully collected all the scattered silver needles.

After a while, it was time to eat, Lu Liding placed a full table and kept urging Guo Jing and Zhao Boduan to drink, which seemed to be like not to stop until he got drunk.

After drinking and eating, Guo Jing and others said goodbye to Lu Liding: "Master Lu, I am looking for my father-in-law, so I won't stay with you for too long, please forgive me."

Lu Liding persuaded him repeatedly, and saw that Guo Jing was determined to leave, so he had to offer thousands of taels of silver and send them three miles away before returning.

Nothing special happened from afternoon to evening, and time flew by in a flash.

The next morning, Zhao Boduan led nine people to say goodbye to Lu Liding: "Master Lu, we are leaving now. Thank you for your hospitality these two days. I'm really disturbing."

Lu Liding advised: "Why not stay in the humble house for a few more days? It's time to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. Isn't it a good time for both of us to have a good drink? Isn't that great!"

Zhao Boduan naturally would not postpone the search for martial arts in order to drink, and said with a smile: "I appreciate the kindness of the owner of Manor Lu, but some chores need to be dealt with, so I have to leave. I'm sorry."

Lu Liding couldn't persuade him, so he had to give him a thousand taels of silver to travel, saying, "Since that's the case, then I must accept this kind of intention and show my heart."

Zhao Boduan took a large package and his hand sank. The weight of the thousand taels of silver was not light. He smiled and said, "I will accept it after the owner of the manor said this, and I will say goodbye!" He turned around and left. The nine people followed him and left Lujiazhuang together.

At noon, ten people rested in a restaurant. After the meal, Zhao Boduan smiled slightly and asked them: "How are you talking to Guo Jing? How did he tell you?"

"Stop talking. Guo Jing originally agreed to introduce us to the Beggars' Sect, but he didn't expect that the hateful Huang Rong would actually stop Guo Jing. I was so angry!" Zhai Chengping, wearing glasses, said angrily.

"That's right, that Huang Rong is so cunning. Everyone respects her when they enter the messy Beggars' Sect, but they don't expect to push her back." Jin Haifeng slapped the table hard, shaking the dishes and jumped up.

...Everyone spoke in unison, all attacking Huang Rong, saying her faults, and it seemed that she was very angry.

Zhao Boduan moved the large package containing silver under him and said, "You don't think about it. Even Yang Guo was instigated by her to send him to Quanzhen Sect. Are you even more close to Yang Guo? Your short hairstyle and unfamiliar with the situation in the Southern Song Dynasty will of course be regarded as people of unknown origin, so be more wary."

Dai Yan, who was sitting on Zhao Boduan's right, reached out to carry the package. He didn't lift it. He used his hands to lift the package to his knees, his face flushed. He said enviously: "Brother Zhao, you have become rich. This thousand taels of silver weighs seventy or eighty kilograms. Calculated at 4 yuan per gram, there is at least 140,000 yuan here!"

Qianyue rolled her eyes to Dai Yan and said, "You are such a fool. The price of gold is 60 times that of silver. Who would foolishly bring the silver back?"

"Yes, bringing gold back is the real fortune!" Dai Yan's eyes were blazing green, his face tilted, as if he thought of the scene where he would bring gold back to modern times in the future.

"Okay, keep on going. Hurry up. It's good for you to learn martial arts a day in advance." Zhao Boduan said, and the group continued to move towards Zhongnan Mountain.

After walking for three days, I had to walk fifty or sixty miles a day. Although I didn’t have any weight, these modern people could no longer bear it and complained.

"Brother Zhao, my feet are blistering. Let's take a few days off before leaving!" This is what Qianyue said.

"Brother, if you have a thousand taels of silver on you, it's better to buy a few carriages. Let's take a carriage and go on a carriage. How about?" Dai Yan made a suggestion.

Wan Jifei, Liu Qingqing, Zhai Chengping, and Gong Xiaonan all advised Zhao Boduan to buy a carriage and walk instead of him.

"I was in the countryside a few years ago. When I was doing farm work, I was much more tired than I just left now. I could walk for another ten days, but I was worried that these people would not be able to stand it." Jin Haifeng patted his chest and said proudly.

Zeng Hansong and Yin Hua said that they could continue to use their legs to rush on their way.

Zhao Boduan saw all the performances of these people and scolded them with a stern face: "You six of you have weak will, and you can't even stand walking some paths. You still want to learn advanced martial arts and become heroes? It's ridiculous! Whoever you have money or ability to buy a carriage, I don't care, but I won't buy a carriage, so I just walk with my feet when I go to Zhongnan Mountain."

He said righteous words and thought happily in his heart: It turns out that the feeling of training people is so good. No wonder those bosses used to ask people to teach them from time to time, haha.

It took a month for a group of ten people to arrive on the Yellow River at a slow speed. At this time, they were approaching the Mongolian border. It turned out that Mongolia had destroyed the Great Jin Dynasty and directly bordered the Southern Song Dynasty. To the north of the Yellow River, it was all the Mongols. Even the boundary south of the Yellow River can often be seen in the presence of Mongolians.

Everyone came to the edge of the Yellow River and saw a wide yellow dragon running eastward. There was a lot of mud and sand in the water, making the river water look very turbid. Despite this, it was still a river that was six or seven miles wide.

After crossing the Yellow River, everyone continued to advance for several miles. They found that the official road here was much worse than that in the Southern Song Dynasty, and there were bumpy places everywhere. At this time, a dense and loud sound of horse hooves came from the front, and soon they could clearly see the dress of the knight on the horse.

Zhao Boduan and others hurriedly avoided the roadside, and no one wanted to be covered in dust from the horses.

He looked up at the knights and saw that the horses were not very tall and dark, as if they were caused by frequent sun exposure. There was a sense of evil spirit in their eyes, and every move showed a sense of pride. They were wearing some dirty leather robes, wide belts around their waists, and long boots on their feet. They were wearing very typical Mongolians. They looked like Mongolian riders.

Suddenly, the team of knights stopped in front of Zhao Boduan and others. The leading rider was the strongest, his arms were as thick as his thighs, and he must have been very strong. He asked loudly: "Where are you Han people going?"
