One Hundred and Six Chapters: Night Rain on an Empty Mountain

Yueyang Sect is located in Yuezhou Prefecture. It is the largest martial arts sect south of Dongting Lake. In the early years, the ten heroes of Yueyang Sect dominated the place. Relying on the reason of being born out of Wudang Sect, they recruited many disciples. Most of the disciples they taught entered the place. Governments at all levels serve as public agents or serve in the garrison. There are many fourth- and third-grade generals under their sects. Relying on their military and political power, they even buy up industries and oppress the people, making them a local hegemon.

In the early years, the Yueyang Clan first competed with the Tang Clan in Sichuan for supremacy, and completely drove the Tang Clan forces out of Huguang Province. Later, they drove back the Qingcheng Clan forces that were advancing eastward, and for a time it ranked among the nine sects outside the Wulin. , became a well-known sect in the martial arts world.

The property passed down from generation to generation of the Yueyang Clan is the Escort Agency, with branches spread across two capitals and thirteen provinces. It is the first-class Escort Agency in this dynasty.

The sect respects the surname Luo, and the control of the sect has been passed down from generation to generation. A few years ago, the head of the Yueyang Sect died suddenly, and he was temporarily replaced by Luo Qianhai, the elder master of the previous generation who was respected by generations.

For the ordinary disciples of the Yueyang Sect, what they do is to make a living by traveling thousands of miles as a dart, and they are used to bullying men and dominating women. Who knows what big things have happened recently, the acting head, Mr. Luo Suddenly, a strict order was issued, asking the disciples in the sect to be honest and law-abiding, and to restrain themselves. His disciples were well aware of Mr. Luo's punishment methods, and they had kept their tail between their legs in recent days. The streets and markets had experienced a rare period of peace.

After Ye Fei snatched the sword that his master had used from Dongting Lake, he wanted to return to Beijing directly, but he received a secret message from the Jin Yiwei. He first asked about the Yueyang Clan's transaction of selling swords for a lot of money, and then asked him to I will personally inspect it and then go to Beijing to report.

In the Dongting Lake group, although Ye Fei lost the Li Qiu sword of his second uncle, ten years later, he found his master's sword again. With great relief, he sent away the follower who came with him. Qi, alone touched the boundary of Yueyang Gate.

After wandering around the Yueyang Gate's main altar for several days and getting information about the Yueyang Gate's guards, Ye Fei took advantage of the night to sneak into the Yueyang Gate's main altar and locked the location of the acting sect master.

On a dark and windy night, a few servants led a middle-aged man in a robe to a secluded hut in the backyard. Ye Fei followed them quietly, holding his breath and crouching under the window to eavesdrop. .

The servant closed the door and left. After a few polite words, the two people in the room started talking directly. A strong and powerful voice deliberately lowered his voice and said: "Mr. Luo, this disaster is really not small!" Another old and capable voice sighed a few times and continued: "You are one of the heads of the Shangsanmen. , who commands the nine outer sects of Jianghu, must save my Yueyang sect!"

The man scolded in a rough voice: "Save? How to save? You did good things back then, but now you are probably here to seek revenge. The cycle of cause and effect and unsatisfactory retribution are all caused by you!"

There was a "plop", and someone knelt heavily on the ground, and then the old voice said: "Young man, I regret my mistake! But we are all from the martial arts lineage, and the Outer Nine Sects are both prosperous and destructive. I sincerely ask Gang Leader Zhou Stretch a helping hand and save the disciples in my sect!”

"Chief of the Outer Ninth Sect? Gang Leader Zhou? - Could it be Zhou Dalei, the leader of the Beggar Clan?" Ye Fei once again held his breath and concentrated, but felt that the two people in the room were breathing differently from ordinary people, and their cultivation levels were vaguely above his own. This Then he determined that the man in the room who spoke loudly and forcefully was Zhou Dalei, the leader of the Beggar Clan.

He then heard Zhou Dalei help the man up, his tone rarely softened, and said: "Mr. Luo, I don't know who is taking action this time, but my subordinates reported that there is a mysterious family living on the island in the center of Dongting Lake. There are many capable people under my command, one of them is Lu Cangsong, one of the Three Dian Cang Swordsmen back then. There are many forces who want to go to the island to explore, but they all go and never come back..."

The old voice trembled: "Which one could it be...?" Zhou Dalei took a deep breath and said, "As far as I know, two of them died in the tragedy that year, and you killed them. One, and another is trapped in the capital. It is impossible for these four. The life and death of the other two are unknown, which is also impossible! After counting, there are only the red-handed spirit slaughterer and the Jade Flute Sword!"

"Jade Flute Sword? Isn't he the sworn brother of the adoptive father and the master? Is it him who lives in Dongting Lake?" Ye Fei suddenly realized: "Then the man named Lu is the Tongbei Saint Lu Yunhan! So this The red-handed spirit slaughterer mentioned by the two people must be one of the sworn brothers of the adoptive father and the others. Whose name will this be?" In these years, the adoptive father has never mentioned their sworn brothers to himself. The so-called "Jade Brother" The title "Xiao Jian Li Feiyun" was what his master Chu Jianghan told him back then. Ye Fei's blood boiled when he heard it, and his heart almost jumped out of his chest.

The old voice changed from trembling to frightened, almost silent: "Could it be... a red-handed spiritual slaughter?"

Zhou Dalei said: "I don't think so! Not only did your Yueyang Clan kill his sworn brother and take away his sword, but in the past few years, you have bullied the local area and done all kinds of evil to harm the people. You have followed the style of the Red-handed Lingtu." , if he takes action, he will destroy your Yueyang Clan just like he did to the Haisha Gang!"

"Killing his sworn brother and seizing the sword" - everything that happened back then passed through Ye Fei's mind again. Master Chu Jianghan was hunted down by the Yueyang Clan and was finally buried in a bottomless pit. Ye Fei felt a sore nose. , his eyes have long been blurred.

The old voice gasped: "Thank God, thank God, it's not him, it seems it's really not him!"

Zhou Dalei snorted and said in a contemptuous tone: "If it hadn't been for the frequent changes in the martial arts world in recent years, at this time, those of us in the martial arts world must work together to protect ourselves. With the friendship between me, Zhou, and Xianyun Village back then, , I won’t care about your affairs!”

The old voice thanked him again and again: "I can't thank you enough, I can't thank you enough!"

Zhou Dalei continued: "Let me ask you, since you have obtained this sword, why do you need to sell it for money at this stall?"

The old voice replied: "Now that the matter has come to an end, I will tell you the truth: In order to compete for the title of Outer Nine Sects in recent years, our Yueyang Sect first crushed the Qingcheng Sect, and later defeated the Tang Sect, but we ourselves are The loss of soldiers will cost money and vitality. First, the leader died, and the business in Huguang was... and then... was squeezed out by the members of your gang. Since I took over the Yueyang Sect, I have been even more stretched, and I can't support it anymore. Then... then I came up with this idea... I want to get some cash and go to Nanyang to do some business..."

Zhou Dalei snorted: "If you don't get what you want, then you will buy and sell by force, taking advantage of the opportunity to rip you off, right?"

The old voice said: "Gang Leader Zhou, the matter has come to this, what should we do?"

Zhou Dalei said: "Yu Xiaojian is not the only one at the moment, but don't forget that there is also Lu Yunhan who is also a life and death friend of them. If they find all the brothers from the past, there will be a big stir. A storm!"

The old voice sighed and said: "It's all my fault. Back then, I had evil intentions and insisted on grabbing some sword... If they really come here for revenge, what will everyone in my Yueyang Sect do?"

As the past events unfolded, hatred suddenly arose, and Ye Fei couldn't bear it any longer. He drew out the sword in his palm, kicked open the door and window with a loud shout, and rushed in.

In the room, Zhou Dalei was sitting opposite Luo Qianhai, the white-haired Supreme Protector of the Divine Fist, holding a lamp. A cold light hit Luo Qianhai, "Old thief Luo! I'm here to accept my fate!"

Zhou Dalei was startled at first, then swung the steel staff in his hand with all his strength, and swung away the sharp sword for Luo Qianhai. Ye Fei turned over in the air and stabbed Luo Qianhai with his sword. Zhou Dalei's steel staff flew out of his hand, he jumped forward and blocked Ye Fei. The two of them were fighting, and they exchanged several moves in the blink of an eye.

Luo Qianhai rushed to the wall, took off the ghost-headed sword hanging on the wall, used the ancestral Bagua Youshen sword, and jumped forward to attack Ye Fei. The three of them were fighting together, and in the blink of an eye they had fought for more than thirty moves.

Zhou Dalei's powerful staff was heavy, and Luo Qianhai's sword skills were exquisite. Although Ye Fei had a sword in his hand, one against two, the 72 Danyang sword skills he had practiced hard for many years could not exert its power.

During the fight, Ye Fei suddenly shouted to Luo Qianhai: "Old thief Luo, do you still remember Chu Jianghan who was killed by you back then? I'm here to take revenge on you today!" Luo Qianhai was startled by his words and held up his hand. Da Dao slowed down, jumped out of the circle and rubbed his eyes vigorously. Seeing that this was a young man in his twenties, he was surprised and asked: "Who are you? How do you know this?"

Luo Qianhai withdrew his sword to dodge, and Ye Fei's pressure suddenly decreased. The swordsmanship he had practiced for many years suddenly came into play, and with the sword in his hand, within seven or eight moves, he had cut the steel staff in Zhou Dalei's hand into several pieces.

Zhou Dalei recognized the Zhenyue sword and the 72-step Danyang sword technique, and was shocked: "Who are you?"

Ye Fei cut off his opponent's steel staff and gained the upper hand for a moment, then swung his sword and rushed towards Luo Qianhai. Although Luo Qianhai was frightened, he had experienced battles for a long time and calmly faced him with his sword, and passed several more moves.

Zhenyue's sword is the most powerful weapon in the world, and Ye Fei's swordsmanship is superb. He cut off the ghost-headed sword in Luo Qianhai's palm within a few moves. Luo Qianhai saw that he was outmatched and hurriedly hid behind Zhou Dalei.

Zhou Dalei threw away half of the steel staff, shouted loudly, and used his unique skill of Thunderbolt Hands. He swung out his fists, and suddenly changed his fists into palms in the middle, and the force came one after another.

Ye Fei exclaimed: "Thunder Hand?" He hurriedly withdrew his sword to raise his energy, and used his left palm to use a move from the Wind Spirit Palm to meet him. Firstly, Ye Fei was young and his skills were not as good as Zhou Dalei's. Secondly, when he met both palms with one palm, Ye Fei screamed and was knocked away several steps. His back hit a pillar before he lost all his strength, but for a moment his whole body was full of energy. It was so soft that it could no longer exert its strength and slid down the heel of the pillar.

Zhou Dalei won with one move, but was even more surprised and asked: "Young man, who did you learn your martial arts from?"

Although Luo Qianhai was older and wiser, his martial arts experience was far inferior to that of Zhou Dalei. After this competition, he did not recognize Ye Fei's martial arts background. He only saw Zhou Dalei knocking the young man to the ground with one move and unable to get up, so he strode He took a step forward and asked, "Who are you? How do you know Chu Jianghan?"

Zhou Dalei looked solemn and said, "Mr. Luo, did you really not see it?" Luo Qianhai asked, "What did you see?" Zhou Dalei took a long breath and said, "His martial arts skills are amazing."

The light in the room was already dim, not to mention that Ye Fei was slumped on the ground. Luo Qianhai couldn't see Ye Fei's face clearly, so he took a few steps forward and squatted down to take a closer look. Suddenly, the tip of Ye Fei's sword struck. Hold on, the sword of Zhenyue has passed through Luo Qianhai's chest.

Only then did Zhou Dalei react. He yelled and struck with his palm. Ye Fei stretched out his foot and kicked Luo Qianhai's body towards Zhou Dalei. His body shrank slightly to avoid the slap. He stood up and was about to jump out of the window. Zhou Dalei sidestepped past Luo Qianhai. The corpse was struck with another palm. Ye Fei heard that the palm force was coming again. He turned around and waved his palm, using Zhou Dalei's palm force, and landed lightly in the center of the yard.

Zhou Dalei chased him out and asked: "Little brother, who are you? Where did this sword come from? Who did you learn this martial arts from?"

Ye Fei replied: "Gang Leader Zhou, I'm just telling you that this guy named Luo did something evil, and I'm here to pay for it today!"

There were crowds of people in front and behind the house, and the shouts suddenly became louder. Someone had already rushed into the room, holding Luo Qianhai's body and crying loudly. Ye Fei cupped his fists and said, "Gang leader Zhou, say hello to your apprentice Han Xiaofeng for me!" After that, he jumped up. Jumped onto the roof.

The Yueyang Gate had turned into a pot of porridge, the descendants of the servants were crying together, and the young and strong disciples were shouting to catch the thief. Zhou Dalei came back to his senses and took a closer look, and found that Luo Qianhai was unconscious.

There were two elderly sect elders who ordered the corpse to be collected and ordered the sect members to go out and get the person. Zhou Dalei was left alone and was extremely embarrassed. He could neither leave nor stay. The two elders arranged the arrangements for a while before inviting Zhou Dalei to the side hall.

A thin old man asked: "Gang leader Zhou? Why are you here? Have you ever recognized the face of the murderer?" Zhou Dalei was thick on the outside and thin on the inside. He didn't dare to open his mouth easily, so he asked: "I don't know what you call me, senior?" What position do you hold in the noble sect?" The old man said: "I, Luo Wanhai, is Qian Haigong's uncle and brother." After hearing that the other party was one of the ten remaining Yueyang Clan heroes, Zhou Dalei said: "This matter is confidential, Zhou I had to be cautious and offended."

Luo Wanhai understood, and invited Zhou Dalei to his secluded study alone, and ordered his servants not to come near him. Then he said politely: "It's quiet here. Gang leader Zhou has something to say, but please speak up." Zhou Dalei then asked Luo Qianhai The story of how the sword was sold for a huge sum of money and how the gang members disappeared was explained in detail.

Luo Wanhai was shrewd and sophisticated, and from time to time he made provocative words. He finally understood the whole story clearly, and then said: "My brother has his own faults in life, but he was killed for no reason. This hatred and hatred will never be taken lightly by anyone in my Yueyang sect." Let it go.”

Zhou Dalei said: "The murderer was holding the Yue Zhen Yue Sword, and his swordsmanship was superb. Although he was around twenty, he had the demeanor of a master. With one man and one sword, he fought against the two of us alone, and even killed Qianhai Gong Yang Chang before leaving. , it is really difficult to deal with, senior, you must be careful!"

Luo Wanhai heard the implication of his words and said: "I also know the pros and cons. Now there is Feixuan Sect suppressing me. The martial arts sects dare not cause trouble easily. Our Yueyang Sect has no choice but to go the official route and only tell the outside world that a giant thief has sneaked in." The Yueyang Clan failed to steal the treasure, but instead killed my brother and ordered the Gongmen to spread documents everywhere to pursue him. I wonder what Gang Leader Zhou thinks?" Zhou Dalei nodded and said: "This is the best!"

Luo Wanhai bowed and said, "With just our Yueyang Clan's methods, it is extremely difficult to catch the real culprit. Gang leader Zhou, you are the chief of the outer nine sects, but you must uphold justice for our Yueyang Clan!" Zhou Dalei said: " This matter must be handled carefully. If it is not handled properly, it will attract Fei Xuanmen. You and I need to plan carefully!" The two of them planned their rhetoric, found someone to draw the image, and then sent someone to report to the official and post the documents. The notice went.

Zhou Dalei made some arrangements and sent his disciples to the Shaolin Temple in Songshan Mountain overnight to express their intentions to the abbot of Shaolin. He himself went west to Wudang in person, intending to invite the headmaster of Wudang, and then to Huashan Mountain to invite the leader of the martial arts alliance, Zhao An, to Songshan Mountain together. Shaolin discusses countermeasures.

After hearing that Mr. Luo, a local celebrity, was brutally murdered by bandits, the prefect of Yuezhou went to court overnight and went to the scene of the murder to investigate. While reporting to the province, he also sent out arrest documents. Within a few days, notices were spread all over Huguang Province. Ye Fei, who was just starting out, became a big thief in the sea overnight.

Ye Fei hid in the east of Yuezhou Prefecture for several days. He saw that the Yueyang Gate had recruited a group of martial arts masters from nowhere to pretend to be government officials and took his portrait in the streets and alleys. Seeing that the matter was getting serious, Ye Fei went north to Dongting. Lake and fled to the border of Jiangbei.

A few days later, a secret order came from the capital, summoning Ye Fei to secretly return to Beijing to resume his duties. No one should be disturbed along the way. Ye Fei was so anxious that he had to take the overland route via Henan and return to the capital.

Firstly, he couldn't live in the official post, and secondly, he didn't have the attendants to attend to him, and there were a bunch of officials behind him. Ye Fei had suffered a lot this time, and he also saw the suffering of the people.

Henan has the widest plain, and logically has the most fertile farmland. However, since moving north, the fertile fields are everywhere, barren and overgrown with wormwood, and the villages are dilapidated and empty, which is completely different from the neighboring province of Huguang.

Ye Fei spent ten years in seclusion at the Princess Mansion. After ten years of living in fine clothes and fine food, he suddenly transformed into a son of a wealthy family when he came out of seclusion. On official business, he was among the powerful Jin Yiwei who dominated the world. Since he went south, he has always been... With your mind on your own affairs, when did you lower your head and take a serious look at the ants on the ground? It was as if he had truly forgotten that he had suffered hardship and hunger since he was a child, and had experienced life and death.

The road was withered and desolate. Ye Fei had a lot of money on him, but he couldn't buy a decent horse, so he had to walk. Passing through Xinyang City, he met the escort car of the Yueyang Escort Bureau. The escort was from the Yueyang Gate Henan Branch. , Ye Fei's youth became playful for a moment, he simply found a beggar on the street, changed all his clothes, and tied the sword and a piece of dead wood into a crutch with cloth strips, disguised himself as a beggar, and followed the escort from a distance. Behind the line.

There were ten people in the escort team, one of the escorts was a little older, and the rest were probably apprentices. It was hard to tell which ones were driven by hand, and there were no detailed rules. The group of people drove five cars, with a couple sitting in the first car, and the four cars behind them were full of luggage, tied up randomly. Looking at the lazy posture, it didn't seem like they were pulling any valuables.

People say that escorts are shrewd, but Ye Fei didn't see how shrewd this group of people was. He had been following him for three to five days, and the group of people had no way of guarding against his thoughts.

Passing by a town, the escort team was having a meal. Ye Fei saw that the notice to arrest him had been posted on the wall, and he didn't dare to be careless. I heard the couple's discussion from a distance again, and then I realized that the couple were originally officials in Henan. They were dissatisfied with the corruption of their superiors, so they left in anger. As for what officials they were, and why they hired the escort from the Yueyang Escort Bureau. , this is unknown.

Ye Fei, a martial arts expert with excellent hearing, heard two voices of different thicknesses talking from a distance: "Did you see it? This is from the Yueyang Escort Bureau. Do you think it's a coincidence or not?"

He said in a rough voice: "What's so strange about this? Yueyang Escort Agency is the first Escort Agency in the world. Where can there not be one?" He said in a soft voice: "The first Escort Agency? The current leader of the Yueyang Clan can be made by Jiang Yang. , or breaking into a house and killing people, I don’t think it’s that big of a deal, and they are also known as one of the nine martial arts sects. I think the major sects in the martial arts nowadays are really inferior to each other!”

He said in a rough voice: "Do you think that is true?" He said in a soft voice: "How can this be fake? His death is real!" He said in a rough voice: "It's not this, it's a notice from the government. If the murderer is caught, the government will reward him with a thousand taels of silver, and the Yueyang Gate will reward him with another thousand taels of silver."

He said in a low voice: "How can the government notices be false? You didn't even look at where the notices came from? Over in Huguang! In recent years, Huguang is the only province that has been rich, with only a thousand taels of silver, you can get it, you can get it come out!"

He said in a rough voice: "How about it? Let's try it, brothers?" He said in a soft voice: "Just give it a try! This notice has been posted to several provinces, and how many martial arts masters are thinking about it. Who will it be for us? Besides, Well, Luo Qianhai of the Yueyang Clan is known as the Supreme Protector of the Divine Fist, and he can also be called a grand master. Can someone who can defeat him be easy to deal with?"

He chuckled in a rough voice and said: "What's the matter, are you scared? Have you really been scared out of your wits by Fei Xuanmen these years? The two of us are sent by Kunlun after all, and we have already left the mountain gate. Let's not talk about it. , but haven’t you suffered enough through these years of hardship?”

He said in a rough voice: "What Fei Xuan Sect, I think it was made up by the people in charge of the sect to bluff people! They divided up the territory and hooked up with the government one by one. Either they joined them and became agents or minions. Looking after their homes and nursing homes, behind the scenes, are you still doing the same business of killing people, silencing them, and wiping their butts? Over the years, although there has been no big business of annexation and vendetta by gangs for generations, people still make a lot of money. Like us brothers, we just gave up the reputation we had worked so hard to earn, and hunkered down in this hellish place, not daring to show our faces, and couldn't make any money. Damn it, when I think about it, we have really suffered a huge loss in just ten years!"

He said in a soft voice: "Yes, we are from the Kunlun sect and have learned orthodox martial arts. Living in hiding like this is a disgrace to the reputation of 'Dragon and Tiger Tai Sui' back then!" He said in a rough voice: "Drink first. , the two of us plan slowly!"

The two were still whispering, but Ye Fei's thoughts went back to that time: it was the 'Feixuan Sect' they called, who sent masters to injure Master Chu Jianghan, causing him to be chased by Luo Qianhai, and he was buried in a bottomless pit... …

After dinner, the escort set off, and the scribe and his wife still got into the carriage. The old escort leader shouted to the nine apprentices to drive the carriage. The scribe and his wife wanted to pay homage to the ancient Kunyang battlefield, so the escort headed west again.

Ye Fei was about to part ways with them when he heard the two talking people discussing following the escort team. Ye Fei became curious and followed them from a distance.

The group of three groups walked back and forth for more than ten days. Ye Fei walked at the end and never saw that the two people in front of him were doing any harm to the escort agency. Unfortunately, it happened that it had been raining for days and the escort carriage was driven by a big horse. The car would get stuck from time to time, but the two big men actually rushed up and helped them push the car from time to time. Ye Fei also stepped forward to join in the fun. After a few days of rain, the three groups of people became familiar with each other.

The group finally arrived in Yuzhou, Nanyang Prefecture. The night rain was pouring, and the people could not open their eyes due to the rain. They pushed the carriage while groping in the dark night, and finally saw a light.

The old escort leader asked his apprentice to explore the way. After a while, the young apprentice finally led someone who said he was the innkeeper. The two of them held a broken oil paper umbrella and stumbled over to protect a lantern. Then they used the light to lead the crowd. Entered the inn.

After tying the horses and entering the house, a brazier was carefully set up in the dilapidated inn. Everyone felt warm and rushed into the house.

This is a two-story building. Downstairs is the dining hall. The shopkeeper is a short and honest man, and he greets everyone with a smile to warm themselves by the fire. There were several people in the store, but when they saw someone new coming, they hurriedly gave the brazier to the newcomer. The escorts and those who came with them were all rough people. They took off their clothes and gathered around the fire to make a fire.

The scribe and his wife were dressed simply and neatly. They were obviously respectable people and refused to take off their clothes to warm themselves by the fire. The shopkeeper was very discerning and brought another brazier and said with a smile: "Madam, those who are away from home don't be too particular. You are also the head of the house." Here, take off your coat and warm yourself by the fire, so as not to catch cold." The woman lowered her face, hesitated for a moment, and let her husband take off her coat, then sat down in front of the brazier. .

The old escort squeezed the water from his clothes, wiped his head and face with the clothes, put them on casually, came to the scribe, and said with a smile: "Master, what do you think you and your wife should eat?"

The scribe smiled and said: "Thank you for your hard work, I think you can eat better!" He then gave instructions to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, if you have wine or meat, just bring it over. We, a group of people, have to take care of the food and wine tonight!" "The shopkeeper responded with a smile: "I just killed an old donkey in the afternoon, and it has been stewed until soft. Do you think that? Besides, I don't have any good wine here. My wife makes it all herself, and the ones she sells are not bad. good!"

The scribe smiled and said: "It's great to have wine and meat. Just go ahead and do the accounts tomorrow morning, okay?" The shopkeeper responded in a long tone. The scribe smiled and said to Longhu Taisui: "Thank you for helping push the cart in the rain. Let's sit at the same table and eat later!" He didn't forget to greet Ye Fei: "Little brother, you can come too! "

Longhu Taisui didn't seem to hear, Ye Fei imitated the beggar's behavior and thanked him happily.

The shopkeeper made several trips and brought over two large basins of steaming donkey meat and a large mug of wine. The old escort divided two seats for everyone and asked people to put out bowls and pour the wine. He came over to bring the first bowl to everyone. After getting rid of the scribes, they went back to have a feast.

The scribe ordered two more plates of pickled vegetables, a plate of donkey meat in sauce, and some pancakes for his wife, and ate them with her.

Ye Fei and Longhu Taisui were called to the table by the old escort chief. The old escort chief was very polite and kept urging people to eat and drink. Ye Fei held the bones and chewed them. He felt that the meals in the princess's mansion were not as good as those in the princess's mansion. Serve this meal of donkey meat.

Ye Fei ate for a while, then picked up the bowl and took a few big mouthfuls. He raised his head and let out a full burp. When he turned around, he saw three or four half-sized beggars squatting in the corner behind the door. Not a single piece of his body was intact. The clothes were either torn or exposed, with two skinny thighs half exposed, and he stared at the donkey meat on the table like a hungry wolf, vomiting and spitting.

Seeing the scribe's generous offer, several groups of customers in the store stared and said nothing.

The old escort and Long Hu were burping after eating, and they were still drinking big bowls of cow drink. Seeing that some of the people at the same table couldn't eat anymore, Ye Fei reached out and grabbed a big bone stick from the pot, and threw it to a few of them. The little beggars, those little beggars got the delicacies. First they kept thanking Ye Fei, then turned to thank the scribe and said: "Thank you, my boss! Thank you, my wife!"

The scribe looked up and saw it. He regained his composure for a moment, then nodded and continued to eat and drink. The woman poked him with her hand. The scribe seemed to come to his senses, and then ordered the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, here you go. Each of these children will ladle out a bowl of broth and let them go to get rid of the cold. Don't let them drink!"

Ye Fei saw that this couple were both good people, and he had a better impression of them. After everyone had eaten and drank enough, they didn't ask the shopkeeper to take away the bowls and bowls. From time to time, they would grab a piece and drink it down with the wine.

The old escort approached the brazier with a wine bowl, hung the pipe in his hand over the fire and roasted it for a while, then crushed it and put it in the eyebag pot. He reached out directly and grabbed a piece of red charcoal from the brazier and lit it. After burning the pot, he crushed it again and scattered sparks all over the floor.

Ye Fei was surprised when he saw how good he was at fingering: No wonder the escort team he led was so unorganized. It turned out that he had special skills. You couldn't tell whether he was good or bad by looking at his breathing, but it turned out that I was wrong.

Longhu and Taisui's expressions changed, they looked at each other, and they both looked at the old escort with their mouths wide open.

The old escort leader then puffed away the clouds and said leisurely: "Little old Hu Tu, my old friends in the world call me a 'muddlehead'. I have been an escort for thirty years. These eyes are amazing." I’ve never looked past it!”

Looking at the expression of Mr. Hu, the old bodyguard, Ye Fei was not sure whether he had revealed his secret, but he saw that the second Taisui of Longhu was already restless.

A clear girlish voice said: "Uncle Lu, who is he? He is bragging!" The voice was extremely low. If Ye Fei hadn't worked hard to practice the vomiting skills passed down by his master, he would not have been able to hear the words. Voice.

Mr. Hu's head and ears twitched, and he stopped eating his cigarette. He obviously heard it too.

Ye Fei raised his head and looked around, and then he noticed two people sitting in the corner. A man wearing a bamboo hat was carrying his table, and there was a man sitting opposite, who was blocked by a big bamboo hat and couldn't see his face clearly.

"Little girl, save your time, this Wudang sect has nothing to do with your father's Wudang sect, you can't count on it!" After hearing the voice and identifying its location, Ye Fei confirmed that the voice came from the person wearing the hat. people.

The female voice said with a hint of coquettishness: "Uncle Lu, how long do you think I need to practice before I can escape from your hands?" The man wearing a bamboo hat replied: "Hurry, hurry! In a few years I will You are old and weak, but your skills have improved. I will no longer be your opponent!" The female voice said: "What's the use? You won't come to arrest me in a few years. Maybe my father and you have reconciled long ago. Well, what’s the use if I can beat you!”

The female voice said again: "Uncle Lu, tell me, how many people in the world are more powerful than you in martial arts?" The man wearing a bamboo hat replied: "There are many people out there!" Can these two people beat you?" The man wearing a hat said: "It's not possible to fight alone, but add you! Two against one, then I am no match!" The female voice said: "Uncle Lu, what do you think? Can they hear us talking like this?" The man wearing a hat said: "What do you think?"

The two of them spoke in extremely low voices. Only Ye Fei and the old guard Hu could hear them. Listening to their conversation, it was obvious that there were two people here who could hear them. It was meaningless to talk in such a low voice. Yes, it seems to be intentional.

Mr. Hu, the escort leader, smoked his cigarette leisurely and said in an orderly manner: "Actually, Lao Hu, I am taking this escort trip. It is not so much a escort trip, but actually an escort for Mr. Liu. Mr. Liu is an upright official and is not used to seeing officials from this province follow him. Some sects were involved in adultery, so they just resigned." The scribe turned around with a slightly embarrassed expression and said, "Mr. Hu, you are so good, why are you talking about this?"

The old escort leader Hu grinned and said: "The officials in our province are all rotten. They are secretly colluding with the Huashan faction. They send their masters to work as official servants in all levels of government offices and bully the people. Even the clerical exchanges between officials at all levels and the court were under control. Since the earthquake that year, the people of our province have not been easy. The government reports the disaster every year, and the court allocates relief money and food every year, but which bag When the grain comes into the hands of the people, most of it is divided up and down. The remaining small part is used to make some articles to fool the imperial envoys who come to check, to manage the censors, inspectors, and even the imperial guards. Wait, news about the people's livelihood in this province cannot be heard at all. If there are officials who want to tell the truth, or who can't be won over by money and beauty, they will send martial arts masters to hunt down and kill them, and then lie about whether they died in the line of duty or broke the law. The corrupt ones will be left alone...don't even think about leaving Henan."

Ye Fei was frightened when he heard this, and thought to himself: "The Jin Yiwei monitors the world all over the world. How can we not know this kind of news? This old man is talking nonsense, does he have some purpose?"

After hearing this, the scribe and his wife lowered their heads and wept. Mr. Hu continued: "Master Liu is a good official. Because he wanted to report the truth, he violated an official taboo. The higher-ups came to seduce him with money and beauty. Mr. Liu If you don't obey, you won't be able to fight, and you won't be able to fight, so Mr. Liu has no choice but to resign. Lao Hu and Mr. Liu's father-in-law are old friends. I was afraid that he would be harmed on the way, so I pretended to be escorted by escort. In fact, this There are several large carts, and what they pull on them is not gold and silver at all, but a pile of books and miscellaneous things..."

After hearing what Mr. Hu said, the scribe said blankly: "My surname is Liu. This time I resign and return to my hometown. I feel that I owe a debt to the people and the country, so I took a detour here. I wanted to kowtow to the birthplace of the Liu family and apologize." ah……"

After hearing this, Ye Fei was still dubious, but he saw that the old escort leader Hu actually said to the dragon tiger Tai Sui: "Kunlun faction dragon tiger Tai Sui, our escort really doesn't have any gold and silver treasures, so we asked you two to go there in vain Got it!"

Longhu Er Taisui was suddenly pointed out by the old escort Hu, and he started up in confusion. He was stunned for a long time, and simply admitted: "The two of us just saw that there were many people and the weight of the car, so we wanted to follow him and kill him. Since this escort trip is nothing, Money, let’s just think that our trip was in vain! It’s just that we didn’t have time to make a move, and secondly, it doesn’t count as a falling out, and our two families don’t count as enemies.”

The other one also said: "Mr. Hu, I had the intention to rob your escorts, but now you have exposed them, and now they are taken. I didn't know you had such ability, and I thought I was no match, so you don't need it." They've attacked us, so I'll just go with you and let you drive me around. Isn't this fair?"

When Mr. Hu saw that although they were robbers who robbed homes and houses, they also had clear grudges, he stood up and clasped his fists and said, "It doesn't have to be like this, it doesn't have to be like this!" Longhu Er Taisui insisted: "That's it, it's settled! I The two of them also asked you to take care of a few meals, so as not to harm others anymore."

Only then did Ye Fei understand the meaning of what the old escort leader Hu said. Firstly, it meant that there was no money for this escort trip. Secondly, it pointed out that he was not moving forward casually, but had already seen the flaw.

Old escort Hu cupped his fist at Ye Fei again and said: "This little brother, your figure and footwork seem to be a bit like the Kongtong sect, but not completely. Please forgive me for not seeing it clearly. Tell me the details, is this little brother here for gold and silver, or is he here driven by the Huashan Sect?"

Before Ye Fei could answer, the woman in the corner had already jumped up and reached for the scribe couple with the long sword in her hand. Old escort Hu stepped in front of the scribe couple and reached out to hold the scribe couple with his old cigarette pole. The woman's long sword, with the fingers of her left hand curled up, was already grabbing at her eyes. Seeing that something was not good, the woman withdrew the sword and lowered her head, barely dodging the attack, but the men's scarf on her head had been torn off, and her black hair was covered with dark clouds. The Liu family and the young men escorting the escort were all stunned.

The woman stood in the light, and the charcoal fire in the brazier and the oil lamp in the corner reflected on her face, showing a hint of pink coquettishness and fieryness. For the first time in Ye Fei's life, he felt that a woman could look like this. He looked dumbfounded. When he came back to his senses, it was the woman who stabbed Mr. Hu's head with her sword again.

But even though she was wearing a man's long robe, she stepped forward to kick her legs, swung her arms and swung the sword, her graceful waist was twisted like a water snake, and she screamed with a bit of passion and pride, Old escort Hu took the lead Holding the cigarette pole and circling with her, every move seemed clumsy.

The two exchanged more than ten moves in a row, and the woman shouted: "The person who will kill you is here, let's see how powerful you are!" There was actually a bit of cuteness in her voice.

Old escort Hu's moves were simple and vigorous, obviously more advanced. In a few moves, he forced her to take a few steps back. The old escort leader Hu became angrier as the fight continued, and he cursed: "You are such a Quanzhen swordsman, but you are colluding with the Huashan people. I will capture you today and tie you to the Chongyang Palace for questioning!"

Hearing the word "swordsmanship", Ye Fei suddenly noticed that what this woman was holding was actually the Li Qiu sword he had thrown to Han Xiaofeng on the Dongting Lake Island, and he became even more confused.

Seeing that the two of them were fighting more and more urgently, the old guard Hu kept pumping out his powerful internal energy, and the pipe had already made the tiger angry. The woman was invincible and retreated to the corner step by step.

Ye Fei couldn't help worrying about her safety. At first, the cloak only turned from the bench, and saw that Hu Lao's dart head was a trick. Although the women's swordsmanship was exquisite, after all Inside, the Dai Douyu stood up and stared at the two on the court.

Hu Lao's head smiled while fighting, and seemed to be extremely hateful. He laughed: "Hahaha, Quanzhen only handed swordsmanship, do you not teach internal skills?" The woman did not accept anti -lips and cursed: "Oh! Old! Thieves, these hands are also matched with Wudang authentic, grandma lets you know how to know! "

Ye Fei saw Hu Lao's dart head even more angry, the more anxious the move, the woman was about to lose, and the Dou Doumao who was behind her and her group was just watching it coldly. In his hand, in case the woman had a loss, he would immediately step forward to rescue.

Just as Ye Fei was nervous, the woman suddenly jumped out of the circle, hugged her knees and sat on the ground, buried her head on the ground, crying.

Ye Fei saw it clearly that the woman's swordsmanship was exquisitely not under the head of Hu Lao's darts, but it was only insufficient in internal skills. This was always in the wind, but it was not defeated. The movement was even more unprepared, how could it cry inexplicably.

Not only did Ye Fei feel inexplicable, Hu Lao dart's head was inexplicable with the one who Dai Doumao. The woman cried for a while, suddenly stood up, got up and covered her belly to squat to the roots of the wall and cried.

Hu Lao's dart head is cautious, so we must prevent Ye Fei, but also to prevent the one who wears Dou Dou, and I dare not care about it. Let you go! "

Suddenly the group of barking Huazi pointed at the ground and laughed.

Everyone was weird. Only the swords were fighting for this sword, which was scared that the little family of the little family did not dare to speak. Ye Fei took a look at the direction of the fingers of Hua Zi's fingers. The place where the woman had only sat in, a square brick with a palm was stained.

This group of rough man was unknown, so he didn't dare to make a voice. The little calling Huazi laughed a few times, and dared not laugh anymore.

Seeing that Hu Lao's darts were victorious, he asked, "What's wrong? Is it senior Hu, do you hurt her?" Hu Lao darts replied steadily: "No, I didn't even have her fur.着! "The scribe asked:" Where did the blood? "

Mrs. Smarts dragged her husband vigorously and motioned for him not to ask anymore, but the scribe saw that the woman was crying and asked again. The wife bowed her head and whispered: "Don't ask again, it's moon water!" The scribe "hi" and twisted his head.

Not only the scribes, Ye Fei and Hu Lao dart head, all those who Dai Douyu heard it. Ye Fei couldn't touch his head, and Hu Lao's dart head silently, but the squatting of Dou Dou, a pulse for the woman, and I said, "It's not Uncle Lu, don't get up first!" Then he would pull When she got up, the woman shook him away and cried: "Uncle Lu, my father and mother are not around, you will bullish me by outsiders!" The Dai Dou Dou was indifferent, and he said: "This ... …this……"

The woman suddenly picked up the sword and shouted, "I'm fighting with you!" Said to rush to Hu Lao's dart head, Hu Lao's dart head dared not care about, and set up a cigarette pole to resist. The woman was in danger and cried, "I won't live!" A turned to withdraw from the sword and welcomed Hu Lao's dart head cigarette pole.

The Dai Douyu panicked, flashed in front, his arms were thrown, one hand holding the smoke rod of Hu Lao's dart head, and the other hand and the other hand stopped the woman from the old dart master's hand. come out.

Ye Fei and Dragon Tiger are too old. No matter what the eyes of the darts, they have seen this trick. There is no cleverness at all, but the old dart head is opened, and the woman is only between it. The skills and machine changes are really incredible.

"The Huashan faction invited these people to come to kill. Where can I still have a chance to win?" Hu Lao dart in his head and dared not care about his hands, but saw that he abandoned the cigarette rod and vomited his arms during his breathing. The eagle claws of the Wudang faction came out of the martial arts. The arms of Dai Douyu hit a long distance like a whip, and the tigers were on their hands. The two of them raised their supreme true power, and in a blink of an eye, they had already been fighting.

The woman wiped her tears and forgot her embarrassment and sadness. She was on the gangster: "Uncle Lu, come on, you must teach him for me!"

Ye Fei watched the battle while seeing that this Dou Dou first left power and only kept it, and then Hu Lao's dart head's true power became more and more powerful. Instead of being unable to get out, there will be a danger of injury, and they will be full of power. The two people have been fighting each other and they have become difficult to ride a tiger.

At this moment, the woman mentioned the sword of the autumn sword, hahaha smiled, "Uncle Lu, you always play slowly, I'll go here first!" After that, he smiled, turned around During the heavy rain.
