A fierce battle lasted from morning to afternoon, and then from afternoon to dusk.
Li Yaoyang leaned on the city wall with a big gun and gasped: "Pavilion Master Liu...is good at martial arts. It's really rare for a woman to have such martial arts skills."
Liu Zhiyun fell to the ground, leaning against the tower, facing Li Yaoyang. She had just had a fight with Li Yaoyang. After all, she was a woman. She had lost all her strength. Her rapier had been broken into two pieces and fell to her feet. She frowned and said, "With such martial arts skills as the eldest young master in the military formation, the future will be limitless..." Young Master...think twice about everything and never make a mistake..."
Li Yaoyang ignored Liu Zhiyun's dissuasion and asked: "Pavilion Master Liu, I don't know the severity of the junior attack just now. Where was the injury?"
Liu Zhiyun sighed. His left leg had lost all feeling. He knew in his heart that it was probably broken, so he tried to show off his strength and said: "A few minor injuries are nothing to mention. I hope the eldest son will think twice."
Li Yaoyang shook his head: "My Li family has been involved with these aristocratic families for hundreds of years, and now it's time to tell the difference. This matter is not a matter of concern to the Pavilion Master. Speaking of which, we have been unable to do anything about the Nanhuai aristocratic family. All because they have been around for a long time, and the older generation in the clan is cunning and difficult to deal with. They also secretly help the martial arts sects, Panfeng Tower, Junzi Sect, including the current Lingyue Pavilion. Since I was lucky enough to defeat Pavilion Master Liu today, the junior has a small suggestion. "
Liu Zhiyun lowered his head: "A defeated general, I dare not respect you. If you have something to say, you might as well say it directly."
"Lingyue Pavilion ceases to exist from today on. Does Pavilion Master Liu understand what I mean?" Li Yaoyang said lightly, looking at the sunset.
Liu Zhiyun took a deep breath and said, "I will obey the order of the eldest son...the King of Nanhuai."
Li Yaoyang said nothing more, picked up the big gun and slowly walked down the steps to the city wall. The defenders under the city were all children of aristocratic families. At this time, they also knew what happened on the city wall, but no one dared to step forward to stop them. Li Yaoyang was allowed to carry the big gun and walked out of the city gate step by step, picking up Lao Nan. After King Huai's corpse, he picked up his head and walked towards the camp of the Southern Huai Army.
Liu Zhiyun squatted on the ground, covering his face and sobbing softly. Lingyue Pavilion was her life's work. The reason why she agreed to He Yi Xiaodao's proposal was to preserve Lingyue Pavilion so that the disciples in the pavilion would not be exhausted in the dispute over the ownership of Nanhuai. Who knew that things would develop to this point, and even after all the hard work, Ling Yue Pavilion could not be saved...
On the steps of the city wall, not long after Li Yaoyang left, a woman came up. This person is said to be a woman, but she is more like a peasant woman. She is wearing coarse linen clothes and has an extremely ordinary appearance. She may have been working outside for a long time, and her face has been tanned a little. A pair of trousers were rolled up to his knees, and there were large patches of mud on his feet.
Liu Zhiyun noticed someone approaching, followed the sound, and couldn't help but struggle to get up. The peasant woman took two steps, held Liu Zhiyun down, looked up and down, and said: "Four ribs are broken, my left leg can't be saved... and my heart pulse is... If you’re damaged, you’d better sit down for now.”
"Li Hongying...are you here to see my joke?" Liu Zhiyun turned his face and said angrily.
It turns out that this peasant woman is actually Li Hongying, the owner of Xiufanfang, one of the famous Nanhuai Double Shows! If she were walking on the road, she would be just like an ordinary peasant woman. Not to mention a martial artist, even a disciple of Xiu Fan Fang might not be able to recognize her own master.
Li Hongying smiled and shook her head: "I'm just a doctor. I only know how to treat patients, but I don't know how to read jokes."
"Then what are you doing here?" Liu Zhiyun asked, having quietly wiped away his tears.
"Of course I'm here to see a doctor, to see your illness and to see Lingyue Pavilion's illness. But it's meaningless to talk about this now. The eldest son became the king of Nanhuai. He said that without Lingyue Pavilion, then Nanhuai There must be no Lingyue Pavilion." Li Hongying helped Liu Zhiyun feel his heart and continued, "But Xiufanfang is still there, sister, the Nanhuai Double Show is hard to remember and not nice to hear. Isn't it bad to stand alone?"
"What do you mean?" Liu Zhiyun asked.
Li Hongying said: "Bring all the disciples from the pavilion to our workshop. The disciples from Xiushanfang will teach the disciples from Lingyue Pavilion medical skills, and the disciples from Lingyue Pavilion will teach the disciples from Xiushanfang martial arts. What's wrong with the two families becoming one? If you don’t like the name Xiu Shan Fang, you can change it to anything, but I don’t like it anyway.”
"Then the eldest son..." Liu Zhiyun raised a question. Li Yaoyang meant that Lingyue Pavilion was disbanded on the spot. If they all joined Xiu Shanfang, it would still be a change of soup but not medicine. Liu Zhiyun was worried that Li Yaoyang would not agree.
"What he doesn't agree with is Ling Yue Pavilion who works for the wealthy family. If there is a Ling Yue Pavilion who benefits the people of Nanhuai, he won't say anything." Li Hongying explained.
Liu Zhiyun casually grabbed a piece of brick and crushed it into pieces. After a long time, he released his palm and sand poured down.
"Xiuyuefang...doesn't it sound better?" Liu Zhiyun smiled.
"My sister, let's call it Xiuyuefang!" Li Hongying said with a smile on her face.
…
Li Yaoyang returned to the camp and worshiped the old Nanhuai King for three days. Of course, he was not completely idle during these three days. Liu Zhiyun dragged him on the wall of Hangzhou for a whole day. He didn't know where Yi Xiaodao went. He also brought his second brother Li Dingxing with him. Li Yaoyang dispatched a thousand scouts to search around Nanhuai, and sent 10,000 elite soldiers to set up ambushes on all roads and alleys on the road from Nanhuai to the capital. Everyone carried a portrait of Yi Xiaodao, vowing to capture Yi. Knife.
When the various aristocratic families in Nanhuai heard that all their clan leaders had been slaughtered by Li Yaoyang on the walls of Hangzhou, violence broke out in various places, and war raged in Nanhuai for a while. Li Yaoyang did not panic. He summoned the backbone of each clan and ordered the children of the clan to stop. Each family hurriedly agreed, but only two families refused to obey, and Li Yaoyang wiped out the entire clan.
The other families were so frightened that they returned to their clans one after another to control their children. The war in various places gradually extinguished. The children of the two families were unable to support themselves, and they gradually died down and there was no movement.
After Xu Hong and Master Guo learned about the Hangcheng Tower, they also led their respective troops back to Yicheng and Jiacheng, not daring to mention the mine. Even the woodcutter hunters in Yicheng did not dare to go to the mine again for fear of causing trouble.
Under Li Yaoyang's high-pressure and bloody methods, the whole of Nanhuai gradually returned to calm, but there was too much trembling hidden in this calm.
Beside an unknown river, Yi Xiaodao was washing his face. Li Dingxing, whose face was unusually delicate and delicate but also dusty, followed him to wash his face.
"You've been running for a few days. Where are you going?" After a few days of running around, Li Dingxing gradually recovered from the grief of losing his father. In the past few days, he followed Yi Xiaodao over mountains and ridges, walking in fields and rivers. Now After he calmed down, Li Dingxing wanted to go home. He had to pay homage to his father no matter what.
"Second Young Master, I treat you well, you have to save my life!" Yi Xiaodao said with a smile.
"How can I save you?" Li Dingxing asked.
Yi Xiaodao sighed and said: "To be honest, I was indeed sent by His Majesty, but I was not an envoy. I was originally just a beggar in Wancheng. Later, for some unknown reason, His Majesty favored me and sent me to follow Huang. Sir, we are coming to Nanhuai together. You usually call me 'Master Yi' and 'Master Yi', but now I don't have any official position..."
"and you…"
"Your Majesty's kindness, I should repay it with death... I just want to come to Nanhuai to solve the troubles in Sui Gong, as well as the disputes between Yicheng and Jiacheng. Later, Xiang Lian'er was taken away by Ling Yue Pavilion. There was no other way. I had no choice but to..." Yi Xiaodao told the whole story.
When the two talked about the attack and death of King Nanhuai, Li Dingxing was still a little sad. He thought of Elder Tang and asked, "Do you know that person?"
Yi Xiaodao thought about it for a moment and said, "I remembered that on my way to Nanhuai, I once encountered a group of beggars, and that person seemed to be one of them."
"Do you know where it comes from?" Li Dingxing seemed a little anxious when it came to the revenge of killing his father.
Yi Xiaodao shook his head and said: "I don't know this. There were quite a lot of them at that time, but he was the only one on the city wall that day. I now suspect that the events of Sui Gong and Fang Long are all related to him! "
"Then catching him doesn't mean the truth is revealed? It's a pity that even Pavilion Master Liu can do nothing about him." Li Dingxing felt a little sad. "If I had brought a bow that day, I would not have let him run away!"
"Just say you didn't find it when you got back. Don't let it slip!" Not far from the stream, two people walked slowly over.
Li Dingxing stood up, looked carefully, and said slightly happily: "They are the scouts from Nanhuai, sent by my elder brother to find me!"
Yi Xiaodao stood up and frowned.
"Here, is it Big Brother who asked you to come to me?" Li Dingxing shouted loudly. Before he could finish his words, an arrow flew quickly, hit Li Dingxing's shoulder, and shot Li Dingxing to the ground.
"Second Young Master, how are you? Second Young Master?" Yi Xiaodao panicked and quickly stepped forward to help Li Dingxing up.
"Are you blind? Do you have eyes? You hit the second young master!" An old scout in the distance kicked over the scout beside him who was drawing his bow, and trotted over. The kicked scout followed him. When he saw it was Li Dingxing, he looked horrified and asked, "Second uncle, what should I do? The prince is not allowed to kill me when I go back!"
The old scout looked at Li Dingxing, who was shot down and unconscious, and then looked at Yi Xiaodao aside, cursing in his heart: "It's not enough to succeed, but it's more than enough to expose it."
"Second uncle, what should I do? Do I really want to go back and die?" The soldier panicked and didn't know what to do.
The old soldier looked at his incompetent nephew, feeling angry but helpless. He gritted his teeth, drew out his sword, and shouted: "According to the order of the prince, the second young master colluded with foreign traitors to murder the late king. If you encounter him, you can kill him first and then report him!"
"Behead first and then show off? Just the two of you?" Yi Xiaodao put Li Dingxing down, looked at the two scouts and sneered.
In a moment, the two scouts were lying on the river beach, and the uncle and nephew had become two charred corpses.
Yi Xiaodao looked at Li Dingxing who was lying on the ground unconscious, and sighed: "Tiger poison can't even eat its seeds. This young master doesn't look as amiable as he appears... No matter what, you're in trouble, just follow me and leave first."
Yi Xiaodao bent down and pulled Li Dingxing up and carried him on his shoulders. He looked at the direction to the west, shook his head slightly, lifted Li Dingxing up a little more on his back, turned around and headed north.
