Chapter 453: First Meeting with Ma Da Jiao
Song Qingshu was shocked when he saw this. He didn't expect the Dragon Slaying Sword to be so powerful that even his carefully selected men couldn't resist it. He knew that if he continued like this, he would only end up dead.
So, Song Qingshu came up with a plan. He pretended to retreat and wanted to lure Zhang Jianjun and Zhao Min to chase him. However, Zhang Jianjun and Zhao Min did not fall for it. They knew that Song Qingshu was cunning and would not give up easily. Therefore, they just followed Song Qingshu from a distance and observed his movements.
Sure enough, not long after, Song Qingshu appeared with a group of martial arts masters. They were all highly skilled in martial arts, holding magical weapons, and were obviously here to help.
Zhang Jianjun and Zhao Min were not panicked when they saw this scene. They knew that as long as they worked together, they would be able to defeat Song Qingshu and others.
So, Zhang Jianjun and Zhao Min led the soldiers of the Mu family army and started a fierce battle with Song Qingshu and others. The two sides fought back and forth, with swords flashing and sabers flying, and the battle was indisputable.
In this battle, Zhang Jianjun and Zhao Min showed amazing martial arts and wisdom. They cooperated well, and had both offensive and defensive capabilities, making it difficult for Song Qingshu and others to resist. Under their leadership, the soldiers of the Mu family army also fought bravely and showed strong combat effectiveness.
After a fierce battle, Song Qingshu and his men were finally defeated. They abandoned their weapons and equipment and fled in panic.
Zhang Jianjun decided to return to the inn, so he and Zhao Min said goodbye to Mu Guiying.
Keep going back.
But I just left for one day.
It was getting dark.
There is only one farmer's house in front.
I have no choice but to stay here.
This farmer is very enthusiastic.
Enthusiastic Zhang Jianjun and Zhao Min.
After they fall asleep.
the next day.
In the yard, a tall and pretty girl was seen swinging an axe, splitting a log into two with her deft movements. She was wearing a loose dress, but it still couldn't hide her graceful figure. Zhang Jianjun couldn't help but be attracted by her beauty and couldn't help but approach her. He smiled and said, "Let me help!" The girl stopped her work and looked up at Zhang Jianjun, with a flash of surprise and confusion in her eyes. She whispered, "Thank you, but I'm worried that you may not be good at splitting wood." Zhang Jianjun smiled and said that he didn't mind giving it a try. He took the axe and stood in front of the log, posing with a confident look. However, when he tried to chop it hard, the axe only cut into the wood shallowly, and did not split it as easily as the girl. Seeing this, the girl chuckled and walked forward. She said to Zhang Jianjun gently, "Watch me." As she said that, she took the axe, adjusted her posture skillfully, and then swung it violently. With a "crack", the log split into two halves. Zhang Jianjun watched the scene in amazement, secretly admiring the girl's skills and strength. The girl handed the axe to Zhang Jianjun and encouraged him, "Take your time, practice a few more times and you'll get it." Zhang Jianjun nodded gratefully and continued to chop wood. Although his technique was still unfamiliar, he gradually mastered some tricks under the girl's guidance. The two of them got busy together, and laughter continued to echo in the courtyard. The sunlight shone on them through the gaps in the leaves, forming mottled light and shadows, like a beautiful painting.
Zhang Jianjun asked, "Girl, what's your name?"
The girl smiled and said, "My name is Ma Da Jiao!"
Zhang Jianjun was stunned, looked over, and found that Ma Da Jiao was indeed very beautiful. At that time, she had not met Zhu Yuanzhang yet.
Zhang Jianjun was surprised when he heard the girl introduce herself. Ma Da Jiao? The name sounded a bit special, but what surprised him even more was that the girl in front of him was actually the famous Empress Ma in history, Zhu Yuanzhang's wife.
He knew very well that Empress Ma was not only beautiful and kind, but also smart and wise, and was an important helper in Zhu Yuanzhang's achievement of hegemony. Now, he was fortunate enough to meet her in this time and space, and Zhang Jianjun couldn't help but feel inexplicably excited.
He smiled and said to Ma Da Jiao: "Miss Ma, your name is really unique. My name is Zhang Jianjun, and this is my friend Zhao Min."
Upon hearing this, Ma Dajiao showed a curious look on her face. She looked at Zhang Jianjun and Zhao Min, seeming to be full of curiosity about their identities and origins.
Zhang Jianjun saw this and briefly told Ma Dajiao about his origins and experiences. He told the story of how he met Zhao Min, how they helped Mu Guiying resist foreign enemies, and how he finally obtained the Dragon Slaying Sword.
Ma Dajiao listened with great interest. She nodded from time to time to show her agreement, her eyes flashing with admiration for Zhang Jianjun and Zhao Min.
"Master Zhang, Miss Zhao, you are truly heroes!" Ma Da Jiao said with emotion, "Although I am a country girl, I have always dreamed of making a career like you."
Zhang Jianjun was secretly impressed when he heard this. He could see that although Ma Dajiao came from a poor family, he had great ambitions and was definitely not an ordinary person.
He smiled and said to Ma Da Jiao: "Miss Ma, you have extraordinary talent and courage. I believe you can realize your dream."
Ma Dajiao nodded gratefully, with a determined light in his eyes.
At this moment, the owner of the farmhouse, a kind old man, came out of the house. Seeing that Zhang Jianjun and Ma Dajiao were chatting happily, he warmly invited them into the house for tea.
Zhang Jianjun and Zhao Min accepted it with pleasure, and followed the old man into the house. The house was decorated simply and warmly, with several landscape paintings hanging on the wall, revealing a light and elegant atmosphere.
The old man made them some hot tea, then sat opposite them and began to ask about their origins and the purpose of their visit.
Zhang Jianjun briefly recounted his experience and expressed his gratitude to the old man and Ma Dajiao. He said: "Old man, we have traveled a long way, and we are very grateful to be able to stay here for one night."
Hearing this, the old man laughed and said, "Mr. Zhang, you are too polite. It is our honor that you can come here. Although Ma Da Jiao is a girl, she has always been very sensible and filial. I am also very happy that you can become friends with her."
As he spoke, the old man turned his gaze to Ma Da Jiao, his eyes full of kindness and pride.
Ma Da Jiao felt a little embarrassed by the old man's gaze. She lowered her head and said softly, "Dad, don't say that. I just did what I should do."
