This time not only the eldest and second brothers were killed, but also their two biological sons, Liu Qing's five nephews Liu Shu, Liu Chen, Liu Yu, Liu Lei, and Liu Xing.
Fortunately, the eldest nephew Liu Shu is married and has a son. The second nephew, Liu Chen, has no children but has a daughter. The third nephew, Liu Yu, has a pregnant wife who is eight months old and is considered to have a daughter. Liu Lei and Liu Xing did not marry when they were young.
Nowadays, there are very few male members of the Liu family. The generation following Liu Qing only has his own child, Liu Yu, who also left home at a very young age and has not seen each other for more than ten years.
Liu Qing must avenge this revenge, but according to the escaped escort, the enemy is too powerful. Although Liu Qing is also a top-notch master, he is known as the "white-faced tiger" in the world, and his sword moves are insidious and deadly. But his enemy was already an innate master, and Liu Qing considered himself no match.
Liu Qing has been thinking about revenge these days. After much deliberation, he only sent people to Huangsheng Mountain and asked his own child Liu Yu to come down to help.
Although Liu Qing did not know Liu Yu's cultivation, his father Liu Li specially visited Liu Qing before committing suicide and told him not to disturb Liu Yu's cultivation if there were no major changes in the family.
If there is a difficulty in the family that cannot be overcome, someone will be sent to Huangsheng Mountain to ask Liu Yu for help. He also told his grandson that Liu Yu's cultivation level was above his.
Thinking of this, Liu Qing made up his mind to go to Huangsheng Mountain after this period. Thinking of his old father, tears welled up in Liu Qing's eyes again. To this day, he still doesn't know why his father suddenly committed suicide.
It was a hot summer day, and there were few pedestrians on the official road. In a tea shop on the roadside, there were seven or eight travelers taking a rest.
Among them was a young man, sitting alone at a table, dressed in black clothes, with a head of black hair tied into a ponytail at the back of his head by a pure white jade belt, with a heroic appearance. He looked like a martial artist, but he did not carry any weapons. Moreover, the man's face is fair and his demeanor is calm. He is not like the people in the world who avoid strangers.
This person is Liu Yu. He left Huangsheng Mountain half a month ago and rode a fast horse towards Jiuzheng County. When he passed a tea shop, he dismounted when he was thirsty, ordered a pot of Longjing spring tea and took a short rest.
"The store owner heard that a group of gangsters appeared in Mahu Mountain in front of them, named Black Tiger Village. They recently robbed several large caravans and killed many people?" Sitting at a tea table near the official road Four farm men and an ox cart filled with mountain goods were parked next to them. The burliest man among the four loudly asked the shopkeeper.
"Yes! It's not peaceful here recently. The army came to suppress it several times, but I heard that they couldn't find the bandits, so they went back again." The store owner, an old man in his fifties, replied while smoking a dry cigarette.
The old man was also troubled by this matter. After what happened, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the official road, and the business of the tea shop became increasingly bleak.
"Brother Wang, what should we do?" A short and thin man among the four asked in a panic. The four of them all came from the same village and were elected by the villagers. They went to the county town together to sell the whole village's mountain products.
"Hey! If we don't go back to the village first, we can't lose the mountain product." The burly man warned cautiously.
"How can I explain to the village if I go back like this?"
"If we encounter bandits, we will lose our lives." The four people had different opinions and started to quarrel.
"Young students, you can go over the mountain with peace of mind. This group of bandits seems to only rob large goods recently, and rarely rob pedestrians. A few days ago, a large escort agency escorted dozens of cars of escort goods, and they were just robbed when they were crossing the mountain. You guys It's time to cross the mountain, so there shouldn't be much danger." When the old shopkeeper saw a dispute among several young people, he tried to persuade them.
"The old shopkeeper is telling the truth. I have been traveling for business all year round, and I often go back and forth to Mahu Mountain. This group of bandits has actually been entrenched in Mahu Mountain for a long time. In the past, they only robbed pedestrians or caravans with few guards. But there are very few It hurts people. I don’t know why it has become so fierce recently." A man dressed as a traveling businessman at another table said loudly.
"Store, we've collected the money." Liu Yu got up and prepared to leave after having enough rest.
"My guest, here are eighty copper coins in total." The old shopkeeper came over and said with a smile.
"No need to look for it." Liu Yu took out a tael of silver, threw it on the tea table, and walked towards the tied handsome horse.
"Sir, although it is noon now and there is little chance of encountering bandits, you should be careful." The old shopkeeper kindly reminded this generous young man.
Liu Yu mounted his horse and galloped forward, turning a deaf ear to the old shopkeeper's words. He sneered in his heart, it was best not to bother him with this group of bandits.
The four characters "Liuyun Escort Agency" came into view, and Liu Yu couldn't help but whisper to herself: "Is this it?".
After driving for several days, we finally arrived at Jiuzheng County. Although Liu Yu was born here, he left when he was very young, so he did not know the way back to Liuyun Escort Bureau.
I found this place after asking passers-by several times. There are two large stone lions standing beside the gate of Liuyun Escort Bureau. The wooden gate is wrapped with thick iron sheet, which looks very majestic.
The entire escort agency seems to occupy a large area, so it must be very spacious inside. Liu Yu vaguely remembered that when she was a child, when she was learning literacy in the inner courtyard, the loud and loud sounds of escorts practicing martial arts could be heard from the outer courtyard. At that time, Liu Yu always looked for opportunities to play in the outer courtyard, but his grandfather always refused to let him.
After dismounting, Liu Yu didn't step forward to call the door for a long time. He felt a little uneasy and didn't know how to face it. When his wandering eyes glanced at the large plaque with the four characters "Liuyun Escort Agency" decorated with large flowers woven with white cloth, he felt uneasy in his heart. Could it be that the Escort Agency was holding a funeral?
After letting go of the horse's rope, Liu Yu stepped forward, picked up the door knocker, and slammed it on the door.
"Sir, are you okay?" Not long after, the door opened at a corner, and an old servant in his fifties leaned forward and asked.
"Excuse me, are Liu Qing and his wife at home?" Liu Yu asked immediately with a frown.
"What does the young master want to do with the third master? Who is the young master? I can report it to you." Yang Fa has been a servant in the Liuyun Escort Bureau for more than thirty years and has always been proud of it. But the Escort Agency has undergone shocking changes these days, and it is about to decline.
Lao Yang has been feeling very uncomfortable recently, and he is extremely cautious when receiving guests, for fear of causing further trouble to Liuyun Escort Bureau.
"Can you tell me first that Liu Qing and his wife are at home?" Liu Yu asked again, her tone even more urgent.
"The third master and his wife are here! If you have anything to do, I will inform you immediately." Yang Fa replied truthfully after seeing that the handsome young man outside the door did not look like a villain.
"Oh!" Liu Yu felt relieved when she heard that her parents were fine.
"Old man, when you report, just say "my name is Liu Yu" and hand over this jade pendant." Liu Yu thought for a while, then took off the jade pendant around his neck and handed it over.
The jade pendant is not a treasure, it is very ordinary. It was just given to him by his mother when Liu Yu left, asking him to keep it with him at all times. Liu Yu also hung it around his neck and refused to take it off easily.
"What, you, you are the second young master." Yang Fa was stunned when he heard the reply.
The third master has a son and a daughter. The eldest daughter is called Liu Ying and is now married. The second young master's name was Liu Yu, and he went to study far away in his early years. Yang Fa had been a servant of Liuyun Escort Bureau for many years, so he naturally knew about this. It turned out that Liu Yu went to Huang Shengzong to practice Buddhism and had not made it public. To the outside world, he said that he would go to distant places to study and gain fame.
"Second Young Master, I'll report it right away, please wait." Although Yang Fa couldn't tell whether Liu Yu was real or fake, this matter was of great importance and he had to ask the Third Master to confirm it in person. Taking the jade pendant, he ran towards the mansion as fast as he could fly.
