The famous and decent family has a rich heritage and a near-immortal inheritance, and along with it is a deep-rooted and hard-to-abandon nature that is passed down from generation to generation. They think highly of themselves, are arrogant, rigid and self-respecting.
The evil demons and heretics are incompatible with them, and they are ashamed to associate with the crooked and evil ways. Only well-matched and well-known families or people of the right path can come into their eyes and have the opportunity to gain their approval, so that there is the possibility of communication with each other.
Among them, the Emei sect is the most serious. As for the four words "famous and upright sect", although the Emei sect is all female, they are particularly self-conscious about this name. Therefore, there has just been a question about the Emei tattoo method in the sect. The Qimen Shuangthorn created by Yan Qing sneered.
Even after the war against foreigners in Zhongzhou was successful and the great hero Yan Qing disappeared, he was worried and angry about Xuan Xiao who imitated Yan Qing and created Qimen Sword Technique. With the slightest encouragement from Wudang leader Yuan Zhen, he went directly to the mountain gate to denounce him. .
Now, it seems that something happened in the Emei Sect, so these fifteen female disciples were ordered to go down the mountain to ask for help.
They are so willing to sacrifice the near and seek the far away. They don't even bother to condescend to the gangs belonging to the Daoyi Alliance or the Jiuzhou Four Seas and Two Alliances within a hundred miles, but they travel thousands of miles all the way to Wudang, which also shows their paranoia about the name of the sect.
Of course, it is not difficult for a sect to become paranoid. After all, due to the influence of inheritance, hundreds or thousands of years of habits cannot be changed overnight. However, if you want to drive all the disciples in the sect, especially the young disciples who originally had rebellious and restless thoughts in the sect, , it is not easy to stick to bigotry.
In the face of safety danger, the paranoia of the sect's views will be shaken from the young disciples.
In the past two days, there have been at least two more incidents of large numbers of people disappearing in the Xijiang County area and nearby official roads. About thirty people have disappeared in total, and many of these people have profound skills and extraordinary martial arts, but the government has not responded to this. They stayed behind closed doors and only issued notices to instruct passing merchants to be careful. Interested people also noticed that the more than ten people sent by the government a few days ago had not returned yet. They must have encountered something unexpected, so they were afraid. Therefore, The strange incident of the disappearance of several pairs of officials and horses caused panic in Xijiang County.
The reason why Jiang Yichen was lucky enough to hear the news that Emei sent to Wudang to ask for help was due to the dispute that occurred among Emei's disciples.
As we passed by each other, we happened to overhear the Emei disciples arguing among themselves about whether they should go with the people in the Zui Hongyan Restaurant so that they could take care of each other.
This Zuihongyan Restaurant is not a restaurant in Xijiang County. Instead, it travels across mountains and rivers to Xijiang County to transport the local specialty Xiangquan wine to Gusu City in the east of Zhongzhou and nearby areas for sale.
It is not easy to occupy a place among the wine shops and restaurants in Gusu City, so Zui Hongyan Restaurant is by no means just a restaurant.
When he was in Yichun Courtyard, Jiang Yichen had heard Ruolan mention the incident of Zui Hongyan Restaurant. Behind Zui Hongyan Restaurant was a gang. Although it was not considered strong in the Jiuzhou Alliance, it was difficult to stand shoulder to shoulder with the likes of the Demon Palace. But it is also one of the indispensable backbone forces in the Nine Provinces Alliance.
This gang originated from a restaurant and became famous in the restaurant. Therefore, the gang took the name of the restaurant as the name of the gang. It was because of the drunken beauty. Because the restaurant business was very impressive and well-known, in the world, the drunken beauty has lost its reputation. .
Zui Hongyan's main business is the restaurant, so the people in the gang have a lot of fireworks, are easy to get along with, have access to all directions, and are familiar with many gangs.
The two people responsible for transporting the wine this time, the Devil Weeping God Dual Sword Team, and the two brothers Ye Fengshan and Ye Chaoya, have often traveled around the southwest in recent years. They once encountered a disciple of the Emei Sect who was attacked, and they were lucky enough to help him. Make friends with Emei disciples.
As the saying goes, they are destined to meet each other from thousands of miles away. Among the Emei disciples who came down the mountain this time, there were three sisters, Shui Rujing, Shui Ruyue, and Shui Yunling, who had been rescued by Zui Hongyan. Therefore, early in the morning, they met Ye Fengshan after entering Jianglin Town. They seemed to be transporting goods back to Suzhou, and out of concern about the recent rumors on the road, they decided to invite them to go with them.
When the three sisters were communicating with their senior sister Liu Ruoyun, who led the team down the mountain to ask for help, they got into an argument due to differences of opinion. How could they know that the speaker was unintentional and the listener was intentional, and the purpose of the trip was overheard by people along the way.
After getting this clue, Jiang Yichen followed the clues and found Zui Hongyan and his entourage who were "recruiting" on the street. He thought that they originally didn't have many people. This time, he heard that many people had disappeared on the official road for no reason recently, and they are still missing. After the unannounced incident, they took a serious look at it and temporarily recruited gangsters and thugs to strengthen the team in case of accidents.
Jiang Yichen thought about it immediately, and it seemed that there might be two groups of people going outside through the official road.
First, Emei sent fifteen disciples to Wudang.
The second is that drunken beauty or thirty people will transport wine to Suzhou.
The two have one thing in common, that is, they both meet the characteristics of strong martial arts, which is also what the missing people in the officialdom have in common recently.
Under such circumstances, it is not impossible for the two to go together.
If a huge formation of nearly fifty people takes to the road, will the weird incidents that happened in recent days happen again?
There was no harvest in the past two days. The money in his pocket will be empty after today. There is an opportunity to make money in front of him, and it is also an opportunity to personally witness the strange events on the official road. Jiang Yichen lay on the bed and hesitated about this. indefinite.
To go or not to go?
…
"Hey, brothers and sisters, the front is Lone Eagle Ridge, and after this ridge is the Tongtu Avenue. We have so many people, I think we can reach Wudang safely and smoothly." With a cross scar on his face, The man with short hair and strong clothes said loudly with a bold voice.
This person is none other than the drunken beauty Shenhaodao, Ye Chaoya. He is only twenty-five or sixty-six years old, but he looks capable and mature.
"I hope so." The one who vented his anger in a low voice was Ye Chaoya's brother, Gui Qi Dao, Ye Feng Shan.
Ye Fengshan, who is both a brother and has a similar appearance, is completely different from Ye Chaoya in terms of dress. He has long flowing hair and a black robe. He is not as active as Ye Chaoya, his voice is deeper, and his personality is unique. However, they are very different, making it easy for outsiders to distinguish them.
"These people are not doing anything right." Right in front of the wine transport team, there was another group of people walking together, but they were all women. There was a soft hum among them, which showed that they didn't like the people behind.
The team in front is the disciples of the Emei Sect.
It turned out that due to the current tense situation, Liu Ruoyun, the leading senior sister of the Emei sect, was also worried about unexpected events on the road. Under the constant harassment of the three sisters of the Shui family, she temporarily gave up her sect opinions and agreed to contact the drunk beauty and invite them to accompany them. , in order to take care of each other.
After Ye Fengshan and Ye Chaoya were invited, they also thought about it. For reasons of morality or safety, they hit it off with the people of the Emei Sect and specially changed their route to Wudang first.
With the addition of the Emei Heroine, and the dozen or so people they temporarily recruited who knew some kung fu, they would have nearly fifty people on this trip. With such a large formation, it would be difficult for them to do anything weird. But everyone.
After hesitating for a long time, Jiang Yichen finally put on a hasty disguise and was recruited to join the drunken girl's wine transport team to see if this team would be unfortunately selected by the Tushita Gang and be lucky enough to encounter that weird thing.
Along the way, everyone was cautious in their words and actions, but they could not help but feel uneasy in their hearts. Their ears and eyes were alert, looking around for fear of any slight abnormalities being overlooked.
However, along the way, there were exquisite Yechaoya that boosted the atmosphere, and the team's march was not too depressing or boring. Before they knew it, they had traveled more than ten miles outside Xijiang County and passed through several places. There were no unusual occurrences in sparsely populated areas.
If you cross Guyingling, you will be far away from the geographical scope of Xijiang County, and there should be no more accidents.
Could it be that I was with the wrong team?
Or is it that the Tushita Gang still has some scruples about such a prestigious and upright sect as the Emei Sect?
At least they entered Xijiang County and Jianglin Town safely.
Jiang Yichen couldn't help but feel suspicious. It was estimated that he was the only one among the nearly fifty people who knew the mystery of this strange incident, so he was full of distracting thoughts.
"Huh, this place is very suitable for an ambush." The team walked to the mountain road of Guying Ridge, Ye Fengshan suddenly said coldly.
Jiang Yichen was not far from Ye Feng Mountain. After hearing this, he couldn't help but look around.
The peaks rising up on both sides were hard to find any vegetation except rocks. If the rocks fell down, it would be enough for them to deal with it.
"Crow Zui, don't say such depressing words. If a rock falls at this time, it will be really fatal." Ye Chaoya said with a dissatisfied look on his face.
"Ha, don't you think so too?" Ye Fengshan sneered.
The voices of the two were not loud, and it was even harder to hear amid the bumps of the carriage and the slight collision of wine tanks.
However, with everyone's nerves tense, these words touched everyone's heartstrings like a magical sound.
A slightly panicked shout suddenly came from the team of Emei disciples in front, "Be careful of falling rocks!"
