There is a cunning man who wants to extort Ling Yun's thousand taels of silver.
Ling Yun raised his sword eyebrows, and a cold smile appeared on his thin lips, "What, a thousand taels?...Aren't you two blackmailing?..."
The man in black frowned and sighed: "Whatever the commander-in-chief may say, in fact, we have nothing to do! My father is seriously ill but has no money to pay for medical treatment. Commander Ling can just be a good person for once and treat it as his own. Please help us brothers."
Ling Yun said: "It's true as you two said, but you two are too dark."
Another man in black lost his temper and blurted out: "Even if we brothers ask for a little more from Commander Ling, it is just a drop in the bucket for you, Commander Ling. Didn't you say, 'A thousand pieces of gold are easy to change'" Well, it’s hard to get even one piece of silver, but it’s not an exaggeration for us to only ask you for one thousand taels of silver!”
Ling Yun was stunned for a moment, then realized something, and sneered: "So, you are the farmer I met here that day!"
Speaking of this, his eyes as deep as stars flashed with light, and he couldn't help but think of the scene when he and Lian Nanchun met here a few days ago...
Later, when they left Shiliting and walked back, Ling Yun discovered that the jade pendant he was wearing was missing. At that time, his heart was agitated and he broke into a cold sweat. He hurriedly followed Lian Nanchun back along the original route to search.
So I met the farmer.
At that time, he felt that the farmer's eyes were flickering and his expression seemed a little suspicious, so he casually asked: Have you ever seen a jade pendant that is so wide and so big?
The farmer looked unhappy and rejected him decisively.
With no proof and evidence, and seeing the look of disgust on his face, he certainly couldn't say anything more, so he had no choice but to leave with Lian Nanchun in dismay.
Now that I think about it, if I had been more vigilant and patient, and had a nice chat with the farmer, and then promised him a lot of money as a reward, maybe this situation wouldn't have happened now.
But the matter has come to this, and there is no point in regretting. We can only act according to the development of the situation.
Thinking of this, his sharp eyes suddenly shrank and he took two steps forward involuntarily.
Seeing that Ling Yun had figured out their identities so quickly, the two men in black couldn't help but turn pale with horror, and backed away in panic.
At first, the man in black said: "You...you must not come here! Ling Yun, we know that you are very skilled in martial arts. If you dare to take it hard, we brothers will throw this jade pendant and we will both be destroyed!"
Ling Yun had no choice but to stop.
His clear eyes turned and his tone softened, "Don't mess around. As long as you can return this jade pendant to me, everything else can be easily discussed."
The man in black's eyes flashed with anger, and he shouted: "There is nothing to discuss, one thousand taels of silver, not a penny less! Otherwise, we will -"
As he spoke, he raised his hands and made a gesture as if he was about to fall down.
Ling Yun's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said helplessly: "Okay, I promise you. However, I left in a hurry today and didn't bring so much money -"
As he spoke, he paused slightly, took out a banknote from his arms, raised his hand and said: "This is a banknote of eight hundred taels. If you can trust Ling, you can take the money first; The remaining two hundred taels will be delivered to you another day."
The two men in black looked at each other and exchanged glances.
It turns out that these two people are Jiao Xing's two younger brothers Liu A Niu and Liu A Hu.
Liu Ahu whispered: "Eight hundred taels, just eight hundred taels, is enough to cure our father's illness. Even if he doesn't give the two hundred taels, it doesn't matter. How much is too much, just accept it when you see it!"
Liu Aniu curled his lips and said, "It's easy for you to kill me!" However, he still agreed with his brother's opinion.
Liu Aniu turned his face, looked at Ling Yun with bright eyes and said: "Commander Ling, we believe in your character. You first place the banknote on the ground, step back five feet, and we will verify the authenticity of the banknote."
Ling Yun could only do as he was told.
He raised his hand and threw the bank note on the ground with a cool "spring breeze blowing willow" gesture; he also raised his leg in a "westerly wind roll back" gesture, picking up a stone to hold it down, and then "suckling swallow returned to the nest" and retreated. Five feet behind.
Ling Yun's series of movements were so smooth and smooth that the two brothers Liu Aniu were dumbfounded. They said with great admiration and envy: "Wow! You are worthy of being the commander of the guards of the Ministry of Punishment, what a good skill!..."
Ling Yun glanced at the two of them with disdain, and said in a somewhat contemptuous tone: "Why, don't you two want your banknotes? Why are you so stupid?"
After Ling Yun reminded them, the two brothers came back to their senses and smiled. They hurriedly stepped forward, picked up the banknotes on the ground, shook them and held them in their hands. Their excited eyes were shining, and they picked them up over and over again. I have seen enough of the banknote.
After confirming the value and authenticity of the banknote, Liu Aniu nodded towards his younger brother.
Liu Aniu carefully placed the jade pendant on the ground and said loudly: "Commander Ling is indeed an honest and humble gentleman. The jade pendant is placed here for you - brother, let's go!"
After that, the two brothers collected the banknotes and turned around to leave.
Originally, the matter had ended perfectly; including Ling Yun, the three people present would never have dreamed that there would be chaos at this moment!
When the Liu brothers were happily preparing to walk back with their banknotes in their hands, a masked man in gray clothes suddenly appeared in front of them as if falling from the sky.
He sneered, and with a dexterous "swallow copying water" move, he neatly grabbed the jade pendant on the ground in his hand!
The Liu brothers were immediately stunned. Before the two of them could recover, the masked man in gray clothes had already laughed ferociously and raised his hand to draw his sword.
"The stars fall in the sky", "the rainbow penetrates the sun", with two swoops, the cold and sharp sword edge penetrated deeply into the chests of the two.
A flash of blood appeared, splashing all over the gray-clothed and masked man.
The Liu brothers screamed in agony, their bulky bodies trembling like leaves in the wind, and finally collapsed limply on the ground.
Their eyes were wide open, with numerous complex and unknown emotions surging in their desperate eyes, as if they were extremely unwilling to accept such an ending...
Ling Yun was also stunned by the sudden bloody scene.
When he flew over to rescue them with a "cloud of smoke", the Liu brothers were already lying in a pool of blood, dying.
Ling Yun was filled with indescribable grief, anger and annoyance. He raised his eyes and saw the masked man in gray clothes flying through the clouds with purple lightning. His graceful figure was already flying seven or eight feet away.
Ling Yun couldn't help but raised his sword eyebrows, and his starry eyes widened; with a fierce "invincible mandarin duck leg", he picked up two stones on the ground and struck them over, impartially, hitting the "Huantiao points" on both knees of the gray-clothed and masked man. .
The masked man in gray clothes was a top-notch expert. He was hit in two "ring jumping points" but he didn't pounce immediately.
He held on for a breath and still staggered forward.
Ling Yun made several "kites flips" in the air. His body was like lightning, his movements were fast, and his nimble and nimble figure was like a fleeting glimpse. He caught up with him after a few ups and downs.
Then he made a move of "Clouds Crossing the Qinling Mountains", with a long sword moving horizontally, and his agile and tall figure was like Yuan Ting standing on a mountain, blocking the front of the gray-clothed and masked man.
The masked man in gray clothes was anxious, so he raised his sword and stabbed.
"The wind is blowing" and "the mountain is strong", all of them are killer's life-threatening moves.
But firstly, the acupuncture points on his legs were restrained, making it extremely difficult to move; secondly, his opponent's martial arts skills were indeed much higher than his, so the two of them only circled for a few rounds before he was restrained, and the sword in his hand became "clunky" Suddenly, it fell to the ground.
Ling Yun used the "Breeze Sweeping Fallen Leaves" style, and with a slight lift of the sword tip, the facecloth on the face of the masked man in gray slid down like dead leaves on the tree in autumn.
What appeared in front of him was an unfamiliar face.
Ling Yun's eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold breath suddenly emanated from his whole body. The words coming out of his thin lips were as cold as ice, "Tell me, who are you? Who sent you here? Why do you want to kill and rob?" My jade pendant?"
The man in gray had the attitude of a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water. He glanced at him sideways and said feebly: "Ling Yun, do you think I will tell you? Now that I have fallen into your hands, I am just dead. What are you talking about? ?”
Ling Yun pursed her thin lips tightly and sneered: "You are about to die, are you still pretending to be a tough guy?"
She put the sword back into its sheath, turned the hilt over, and hit the man in gray's two big acupoints with two "pops".
The man in gray clothes felt itchy all over his body, as if a hundred ants were biting his body, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
He really couldn't bear this cruel torture, and said tremblingly: "Quickly, unlock the acupuncture points for me, I...I can't stand it anymore...I'll tell you everything..."
Ling Yun chuckled, the corners of his mouth curved contemptuously; he raised his fingers, opened his acupuncture points, and said sternly: "Give me back the jade pendant first!"
The man in gray trembled and took out the jade pendant from his arms, handing it over with trembling hands.
Ling Yun was about to reach out to pick it up, but suddenly he felt the evil wind behind him, and secretly shouted "No!"
With a nimble and nimble "thin breasts and skillful movement over the clouds", the agile figure turned gracefully like a whirlwind, with her lapels flying and dancing, and she skillfully and narrowly avoided the sneak attacks of those hidden weapons.
The poor man in gray next to him screamed, and several hidden weapons hit his chest and ribs, and blurred blood gushes out like a fountain.
At the same time, a man in green flew over like a whirlwind, and with a light "fishing for the moon from the bottom of the sea", he happened to grab the jade pendant in his hand!
The man in green is none other than Ying Chuanlin, the martial arts master of Houye Mansion.
He calmly put the jade pendant into his arms and smiled provocatively at Ling Yun, "Junior brother, are you okay?"
Ling Yun's cold eyes were covered with a layer of terrifying frost, and he said angrily: "Ying Chuanlin, return the jade pendant to me quickly!"
Ying Chuanlin Shiran said: "How can I give it back to you? Commander Ling is so difficult to deal with and it took so much trouble to get hold of you. Do you think I can give up easily?"
Ling Yun's heart trembled unconsciously, "The handle? What handle?"
There was a hint of amusement in Ying Chuanlin's eyes, "Why are you still pretending to be confused now? Do you think I don't know about your affair with that bitch Lian Nanchun! Now I finally have the evidence - Ling Commander, what else do you have to say now!"
Ling Yunjun's face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Ying Chuanlin, what exactly do you want?..."
