Lin'an City is a treasure trove of natural resources, with merchants gathering and bustling with everything from taverns and tea shops to hook-and-rail tile houses.
So Xiang Nan and others wandered until late at night before returning to the inn.
As soon as they returned to the inn, Guo Jing and Huang Rong walked in anxiously, "Brother Yang Xian, we saw Wanyan Honglie, Ouyang Feng, Qiu Qianren and others."
"Oh?! Are they still in Lin'an?" Xiang Nan was stunned when he heard this.
He originally thought that Wanyan Honglie would listen to the advice and lead his army to the Western Regions to save the last bit of fire, but he didn't expect that he would persist in his persistence and stay in Lin'an City.
"Yes, they still want to go to the palace to steal the "Wu Mu's Suicide Notes"." Guo Jing nodded, "We must find a way to prevent them from succeeding."
Xiang Nan smiled and waved his hand, "Let them do it, you don't have to worry about it."
"Brother Yang Xian, why do you say that? You have to know that once Wanyan Honglie obtains the "Wu Mu's Suicide Note", the strength of the Jin Kingdom will definitely increase. By then, our Song Dynasty will be in trouble." Guo Jing said in surprise.
"Then you are worrying too much." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "War is not as simple as you think. You can't win the war just by having a military book.
"Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Sun Bin's Art of War", "Yin Fu Jing", "Wei Liao Zi" and other military books can be purchased in any bookstore, which is not unusual at all.
No matter how powerful Yue Wumu is in fighting, can he still defeat Sun Tzu, the sage of war? If you can win a battle with a book of war, there will be no such idiom as "talking on paper".
Besides, you don't have to worry about Wanyan Honglie getting the "Wu Mu's Suicide Note", because the "Wu Mu's Suicide Note" is not in the palace at all."
"How do you know? Where is it?" Guo Jing asked doubtfully.
"In the Iron Palm Gang." Xiang Nan replied.
"Why are you there?" Huang Rong asked in surprise upon hearing this.
She didn't have a good impression of the Iron Palm Gang because the gang leader Qiu Qianren defected to the Kingdom of Jin and betrayed the country for glory, which was really a shame in the martial arts world. Moreover, if the "Wu Mu's Suicide Notes" were really there, why didn't he dedicated them to Wanyan Honglie earlier, and why did he follow him to the palace to steal the books?
"Do you know the origin of the Iron Palm Gang?" Xiang Nan asked.
Guo Jing and Huang Rong both shook their heads.
"The Iron Palm Gang was originally a small gang in western Hunan, and it was not considered very powerful. It was only because of the addition of a talented and powerful gang leader named Shangguan Jiannan.
He was originally a general under Han Shizhong. After Yue Wumu and Han Shizhong were demoted, he led his brothers to join the Iron Palm Gang in anger.
Later, because they acted chivalrously, punished women and eradicated evil, and raised the banner of anti-golden power, they attracted a large number of heroes from Sichuan and Hunan to join, and the Iron Palm Gang quickly grew.
When Yue Wumu died, he left behind "Wu Mu's Suicide Note". Shangguan Jiannan received the news and came to the palace to steal the book, and then hid it in the Iron Palm Gang.
Later, the Iron Palm Gang was feared by the court because of its determination to fight against the Jin Dynasty, and troops were sent to encircle and suppress them many times. Shangguan Jiannan also died as a result, and after his death, he took "Wu Mu's Suicide Note" into the coffin. Xiang Nan explained, "Then Qiu Qianren took over as the gang leader, which led to the corruption of the Iron Palm Gang."
"Brother Yang Xian, how do you know so much?" Guo Jing said in surprise.
"I don't know either. There are some things that I know naturally." Xiang Nan couldn't explain it and just spread his hands. ….
Anyway, people in ancient times were superstitious. Even people as smart as Huang Rong were afraid of zombies, ghosts and other absurd things, so he could get away with it.
Sure enough, seeing what he said, Guo Jing and Huang Rong could only nod.
"Then we really don't care?" Guo Jing asked again.
"No matter what, in fact, it would be better to let Wanyan Honglie get it. Now the capital of the Jin Kingdom is surrounded by the Mongolian army. When Wanyan Honglie gets the military book, he will first clear the siege of the Central Capital. If he can fight to the death with the Mongolian army, it will be a decisive blow to the Mongolian army. Song Dynasty is the good thing." Xiang Nan curled his lips and said.
"Brother Jing, Second Brother Yang is right." Huang Rong nodded.
When Guo Jing heard this, he nodded.
"Okay, let's go back to the room and rest. Tomorrow, we will set off to Niujia Village." Xiang Nan said.
…
After a while, everyone headed to Niujia Village.
Niujia Village is located on the outskirts of Lin'an City, and it is not difficult to find. An hour later, they arrived at Niujia Village, and then under the guidance of the villagers, they found Guo Xiaotian's tomb.
Guo Jing and Xiang Nan knelt down in front of Guo Xiaotian's tomb to worship, then dug up his tomb, picked up the bones and put them into the bone altar, ready to take them away.
By the time the busy work was over, it was already noon. Several people immediately came to a small shop with a shabby wine shop at the entrance of the village, ready to have some food.
But upon closer inspection, I found that the shop had long been abandoned. Looking through the window, the dust accumulated in the house was about an inch deep, with dead branches, fallen leaves, and straw scattered all over it. It didn't look like there was anyone at all.
"It's over, there's no place to eat." Zhou Botong said immediately when he saw it.
Xiang Nan directly opened the door and walked in.
Guo Jing and Huang Rong saw this and quickly followed.
Xiang Nan went straight to the kitchen board and saw seven or eight tattered blue and white bowls placed on it, with more than ten chicken bugs dead in the bowl next to the bowl.
Xiang Nan touched it one by one, then selected a cold bowl, and then turned it hard to the right.
At the sound of Kacha, the cupboard wall parted to both sides, revealing a dark hole. A stench rushed out of the cave, making the man feel sick.
Huang Rong was startled and hid quickly.
Guo Jing, Li Mochou and Zhou Botong were also surprised.
"Good brother, how do you know there is a mechanism here?" Zhou Botong asked in confusion.
"I knew it naturally." Xiang Nan said innocently.
"Do you know how to predict things? Or do you know this because you have been here in a previous life?" Zhou Botong asked in surprise when he heard this.
"I don't know either." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
However, everyone looked at him with more and more admiration.
…
After a while, when the stench in the cave dissipated and everyone was about to go in, they suddenly heard a children's song coming from the door, "Shake, shake, shake to Grandma's Bridge, Grandma calls me a good baby..."
Then I heard the sound of someone pushing the door open and entering.
Everyone looked immediately and saw a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, with disheveled hair and a thorn hairpin in her hair, with dull eyes and a silly look.
Seeing everyone, she couldn't help but be stunned, and then she let out a strange scream and waved her palm to hit everyone.
"Huh?!" Huang Rong and Zhou Botong were shocked when they saw her take action, because this girl's palm technique was exactly the Bibo Palm from Peach Blossom Island.
Huang Rong was afraid that she was mistaken, so she quickly stepped forward to fight with her.
After the fight, Huang Rong immediately confirmed that the girl was using the Bibo Palm Technique.
However, she didn't seem to have learned everything. She only used seven or eight moves over and over again. It is naturally enough to deal with ordinary thieves, but it is difficult to deal with her.
Huang Rong immediately used several moves to knock her to the ground, and then asked, "Who are you, and why did you become the Blue Wave Palm of Peach Blossom Island?"
But the girl looked confused and fell to the ground, kicking and screaming, "If you hit me, I won't obey~"
"How dare you pretend to be crazy and act like a fool? If you don't tell me, I will kill you if you don't tell me." Huang Rong said angrily when she saw this.
"Miss Huang, don't kill her, she is not an outsider, she is the daughter of your senior brother Qu Lingfeng." Upon seeing this, Xiang Nan said quickly. .
