Listening to the self-registered number of the purple-robed Taoist in front of him, it turned out that as Lin Manliu expected, this person was one of the Eight Generals of Quexie.
The young man in a short shirt turned around and took a few steps back, first retracting the Shan Ye Xing that had been stabbed into the mud into its sheath. Cang Xuantong looked at Lin Manliu's movements and suddenly asked: "Brother Lin, aren't you curious as to why I appear here?" He thought that Lin Manliu would be as respectful as before, and said A few guesses, plus my own inferences.
As a result, he heard the boy in a short shirt speaking cleanly.
"I'm not curious..." This reply made the purple-robed Taoist's face freeze, and the whisk in his hand shook several times.
But the boy in the short shirt in front of him didn't make any movement at all. He just looked at his nose, his nose and his mouth, and his mouth and his heart.
After all, for Lin Manliu, he knew that this trip was bound to be unlucky, and even if he would not encounter Que Xie, he would encounter other obstacles.
The person who came at this time was Quexie, and he was actually doing much better. Because in this way, it can be proved that Quexie is still planning something!
No matter what Ye Chengzhu was doing with the old liar, Yijian Villa at this time was still valuable to Que Xie.
The young man in a short shirt was in a different position than before, acting as the messenger.
So when facing people who are evil-doers, he, Lin Manliu, can still be influenced by them in a sense.
While being "threatened", he was saved. Cang Xuantong spoke again: "Brother Lin has been traveling in the mountains for a long time. Did he venture into Fengcheng this time to inquire about Lu Fengbai?" Seeing the purple-robed Taoist talking to himself further confirmed what the young man was thinking.
Okay... I told you not to be curious anymore, so you still have to force yourself into it, right? Lin Manliu said with a smile: "I'd like to hear the details!" Cang Xuantong looked at the triumphant look on the young man's face, couldn't help but shook his head, and also laughed.
The purple-robed Taoist walked slowly further south, and the boy in short shirt continued to follow behind him. There are no residents on the south side of Fengcheng. This area is where the city's baggage is accumulated. Generally, no one comes here, and no one comes here to steal.
Cang Xuantong looked at the scene in front of him casually and began to talk about the current situation in southern Xinjiang. Since the Tue Evil Sect's war broke out again, from the initial four towns and twelve villages, in just five days, three cities, twenty-four towns, and countless villages and stockades had been destroyed.
This time, the counterattack is no longer aimed at Jianghu sects, but is aimed at innocent people in an attempt to get involved in Yanyang's territory.
Regarding the description of the purple-robed Taoist, Lin Manliu pretended to be shocked, but he was secretly making calculations in his heart. According to their previous speculation, there is actually a common relationship between the actions of the Slaughter Evil Sect and Yan Yang.
The three bandits have taken over the other two, creating such a desperate situation. Who is showing it to them?
The young man in a short shirt asked, "So the Taxuehou led the Liaoyuan Army all the way south to quell the rebellion?" Regarding Lin Manliu's knowing question, Cang Xuantong smiled meaningfully and continued to tell.
By the beginning of April, the Liaoyuan Army stationed in the Central Plains took the lead in moving south, and all the soldiers in the Jiannan area along the way were also mobilized to follow.
Later, in less than half a month, the cities and villages occupied by the Tue Evil Sect were taken back one after another. Now the Liaoyuan Army has been stationed on the high mountains in the lower reaches of the Langcang River. Lu Fengbai, who belongs to Yijian Villa, has also joined the Taxuehou.
On that high mountain, there is a pass built by Yanyang in the past. Because it was built near the Langcang River, it was called Langcang Pass.
The Tu Evil Sect, which was confronting them, gathered all the rebels in southern Xinjiang into the Zhige Mountain in the upper reaches of the Langcang River.
That piece of evocation
The mountains of "Zhi Ge" are surrounded by two branches upstream. If you want to enter them, there is only one natural barrier to pass.
The situation at this moment was due to the dangerous road, and the Liaoyuan Army was unable to attack the Tue Evil Sect for the time being. When Lin Manliu heard this, he combined it with what he had seen along the way.
He asked aloud: "What I said before about the deployment of follow-up troops was to replace all the soldiers in Jiannan with the Liaoyuan Army?" Cang Xuan said in unison: "Yi Qing is not wrong..." The boy in a short shirt was not convinced about this. This sudden compliment was not too cold, so there was no reply.
Seeing that the young man was silent, the purple-robed Taoist continued to speak.
"Today's meeting, the first thing is to inform Brother Lin of the news, so that we can avoid detours in the future, so that we can meet with Master Lu earlier..."
"Secondly, it also allows little brother Lin to rest in peace for a few days to recuperate. He can recharge his batteries in Fengcheng, and don't know how he will die in the future..." Lin Manliu raised his eyes and looked at this The Taoist named Cang Xuantong raised his hands and cupped his fists to show his understanding.
What he said was true. Even if the boy in the short shirt could hold on, Jiang Yanlin who was traveling with him might not be able to hold on.
Afterwards, if they go south, there will be no place like Fengcheng where they can rest and recuperate. Now, staying in Fengcheng for a while is the best choice, whether it is to collect information or to recuperate.
When the young man's thoughts moved slightly, the purple-robed Taoist just stood beside him and did not continue to speak. Just when Lin Manliu was about to say goodbye, Cang Xuantong spoke before him.
"Now that I have brought you what I have to do, it's time to talk about my personal matters..." Personal matters?
! The young man in a short shirt immediately stared at Cang Xuantong with some vigilance, but by now it was too late to make a move. He had been in front of this person before, but now that the distance between the two was close, if he wanted to kill someone violently, Lin Manliu knew that he would not be able to escape at all.
He had to test it out first and then look for an opportunity to retreat. Lin Manliu said: "What's the private matter?" Cang Xuantong took in all the changes in the young man's eyes, raised the whisk in his hand and patted Lin Manliu's shoulder gently.
"Too much suspicion is not a good thing..."
"Lin Manliu, do you know who the person traveling with you is?"
"Since you saw Cheng Zhu intercepting and killing that person for the first time, and now you are not suspicious at all?" The young man in short shirt faced the purple robe Taoist's question and said every word without changing his expression.
"Who he is is not important. I will use my own method to send him back!" The purple-robed Taoist sneered: "Send him back... to where? Do you think he will be safe and sound if he goes back? ?" Lin Manliu took a step forward, getting closer to Cang Xuantong.
"Send him to the south of the Yangtze River, and then make plans!" Seeing the young man's firm tone, Cang Xuan immediately said in a deep voice: "What ability do you have...to guarantee this kind of thing?" Lin Manliu said loudly. "Although my ability is small, at least someone has taught me the principle of a gentleman's promise, and all five mountains are valued!" This young man who walked out of Fengcheng had not heard the teacher's words in the school for a few days. reason.
But in his heart, there have been too many preachers and teachers along the way. It is General Li Yanhe who wields a spear and rides a horse to defeat the enemy.
It is the beautiful figure in blue who fights against enemies together in the mountains and forests and travels eastward to the south of the Yangtze River. He is the old liar who usually only talks nonsense, but is the first to step forward when something really happens.
It was Mr. Mo sitting behind the chessboard, playing music with his son. There are also Master, Master Lu, and the brothers in Yijian Villa... everyone is using their actions to tell the young man how to behave and what to do after encountering trouble!
The purple-robed Taoist looked at Lin Manliu with a mocking expression that he had never seen before.
"You're still a baby after all. How many things have you seen along the way that you dare to conclude that your helping hand is right?" Lin Manliu asked in confusion: "Que Xie knows the news about my journey but doesn't stop me. Why?"
"Because some people are happy to see it succeed!" Cang Xuantong replied. Lin Manliu asked: "What do you want to do with Taoist Master Cang's private affairs?" The purple-robed Taoist's hand holding up the fly whisk then lowered it. The hand that originally rested on the young man's shoulder, as light as a feather, suddenly became as heavy as a mountain.
The boy in a short shirt bent his knees slightly and almost fell to his knees. Lin Manliu took a strong breath, then groaned.
"I thought Taoist Master Cang was like the previous ones, at least not capable of using force to suppress others. It seems that these eight generals also have different personalities..." Cang Xuantong's strength increased again, The power of the whisk in his hand increased again.
The figure of the boy in a short shirt swayed, and his legs began to tremble erratically, but even so, Lin Manliu did not kneel down.
The purple-robed Taoist said: "I've only learned a little bit about swordsmanship, but I've learned a lot about talking skills..." Lin Manliu stopped talking, but he imitated Cang Xuantong's tone and laughed.
"Lin Manliu, you just insist that I don't dare to kill you, so you show off to me?" The boy in the short shirt remained silent, just staring at the purple robe in front of him.
Suddenly, Cang Xuantong's eyes showed a hint of fierceness, and he no longer held back to suppress Lin Manliu with all his strength.
"I'll torture you to my heart's content. I just need to ensure that you can climb to the Langcang River in the future!" The purple-robed Taoist's hand was full of strength. Finally, the boy in the short shirt could no longer hold on and was slapped by the whisk in his hand. on the ground.
Before Lin Manliu took off his strength, he watched Cang Xuantong walk towards him step by step. The boy struggled to spit out a few words, "Fuck you..."
"Not bad! He also knows some dirty words!" Lin Manliu's consciousness gradually blurred. He seemed to hear some of Cang Xuantong's subtle words, but he couldn't hear them clearly.
Then I just felt that I was being lifted up, and I lost any consciousness again. When the boy in a short shirt woke up, he found that he was already in that secluded courtyard.
The person next to him seemed to have noticed Lin Manliu's awakening and immediately shouted out.
"Brother Liu! Brother Liu! You finally woke up!" The person who spoke was naturally Jiang Yanlin. Lin Manliu stood up with difficulty and looked at Jiang Yanlin beside him.
The young man asked aloud: "Yanlin, where did you find me..." Jiang Yanlin said aloud while recalling.
"Two hours ago, there was some noise outside the courtyard door. I didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but it started ringing again after a while..."
"Then I climbed up to the second floor of the main house, looked out from the window, and saw Brother Liu leaning against the courtyard door!" Lin Manliu listened to Jiang Yanlin's description and began to check various parts of his body.
The young man in short shirt discovered that there was no damage at all, not what Cang Xuantong said.
"torture". What a weirdo...
