The second thing that surprised Lin Yan was that the man behind the scenes suddenly changed his mind and wanted to recruit Lin Yan for his own use. The identity of this person is a mystery, so Lin Yan naturally cannot surrender casually. Even if it is a fake surrender, the risk is too great.
The third unexpected thing is the emergence of this relationship.
The appearance of this person means that Qin Wuya, or people from the Imperial Shenlong Hall, have also joined this game. Of course, it is also possible that this person has played a certain role in this game.
Lin Yan doesn't know about this, but one thing that is certain is that the person who organized this plan has a very deep identity, and at least he is someone who can compete with Qin Wuya.
This situation is more far-reaching than Lin Yan imagined.
Duan Qing's body skills are extremely good and his speed is very fast, but it is obviously not because of any light kung fu skills, but because he has been specially trained for speed, his legs and feet are nimble, and he has good archery skills. In this jungle, The fortune is like a fish in water.
Shoot an arrow and change direction.
Guitongzi could track Duan Qing's position every time, but when the hidden weapon flying needles flew over, Duan Qing relied on his strong speed to open more. After three or two times, Guitongzi didn't carry many flying needles anymore.
"This boy is really cunning!" Ghost Boy glanced at Lin Yan fiercely. Until now, he still couldn't guess that the reason why Lin Yan led them to this mountain forest was because of the favorable geographical location.
The six top masters in the encirclement and suppression campaign are of high level, but they may not be able to take advantage by fighting guerrilla warfare in the jungle.
In the jungle, with speed and long-range harassment methods, you can often be invincible.
The ghost boy is good at hidden weapons, but the poison and power that the scorpion lady and Li Wang are good at have no effect in this jungle. As for the other three, they obviously don't take this siege to heart, even if there is really a killing. Lin Yan's heart may not be able to function in this jungle.
In a jungle showdown, numbers may not give you the upper hand.
After thinking about everything clearly, Gui Tongzi suddenly felt as sick as if he had eaten shit.
"Stop chasing." Ghost Boy stopped on a tree and signaled to everyone.
The fat masked man caught up and shouted: "Ghost boy, have you forgotten the agreement you made with my master?"
The ghost boy sneered and said: "Mengshan, if you can catch up, you can continue to chase me. I'm sorry for not accompanying you." He glanced at Lin Yan who was walking away and said: "Sooner or later, this kid will fall into my hands. Yes..." He squinted his eyes, looking at the direction where Duanqing finally disappeared, and the hatred in his heart continued to skyrocket.
The fat masked man named Meng Shan snorted coldly, but he also understood that what the ghost boy said was the truth.
None of them were good at Qinggong. If they were to use Qinggong to walk from the tree, they would not be as fast as running underneath.
Who would have thought that a junior in the world would be so difficult to pursue.
The normal chase naturally ended. On the other hand, Lin Yan escaped from everyone's pursuit and came to a small stream. Duan Qing, the Tianzihao secret agent of Shenlong Hall, also chased after him. He looked at Lin Yan not far away and said: "I'm here to spy on Duan Qing from the Shenlong Hall, and I came to help you on the order of the deputy hall master. Your grace in the past few days will never be forgotten by Duan Qing."
"You're welcome! I would like to thank Shenlong Hall for helping me this time." Lin Yan smiled, "It's just that I'm curious as to why Deputy Hall Master Qin helped me."
"Fortmaster Lin Shao's demeanor that day, Deputy Hall Master Qin has been keeping in mind for the past few days. He feels that it is a blessing for the Jin Dynasty to have such a talent. He cannot bear to see such a talent being persecuted by evil forces, so he has been protecting him secretly." Duan Qing, who was under the black hat, had no expression on his face and just spoke lightly, as if the words did not come from his mouth.
"Vice Hall Master Qin is interested." Lin Yan said with a smile.
"Vice Hall Master Qin once said that if Master Lin is assassinated, he must be rescued in time. If Master Lin is willing, he would like to meet you." Duan Qing's face seemed to be frozen, and when he spoke No expression at all.
Hearing this, Lin Yan pondered for a moment and said, "That's what I mean, I also want to meet Deputy Hall Master Qin."
Qin Wuya showed his kindness to him. This was an opportunity to learn the truth behind the matter.
With Qin Wuya's status, he might actually know some information about the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Please come with me." Duan Qing made a gesture of invitation.
Half an hour later, the two quickly walked out of the dense forest and walked towards Cloud City.
Under Duan Qing's leadership, Lin Yan went all the way to a restaurant called Zhiweixuan. He went upstairs and entered a private room. Duan Qing opened a mechanism in the private room, revealing a dark hole on one side of the corner. Lin Yan Yan took a closer look and saw that there was a gap of about three feet between the outer wall downstairs of the box and the inner wall upstairs, creating a passage leading to the ground.
This passage is extremely secretive. From the outside, it would be hard to imagine that there is an underground passage hidden in such a small width.
He and Duan Qing entered the secret passage and walked down. After walking about five or six feet, they found that the field of vision in front of them suddenly widened. It was a well-built underground artificial secret passage that could accommodate five people walking side by side.
There are lights all around the secret passage, and the entire secret passage is brightly lit.
"There are actually such fine tunnels under Yuncheng. Could it be that the imperial court has long been interested in taking over the southwest martial arts world." Lin Yan asked tentatively.
Duan Qing glanced at him and said expressionlessly: "You should ask Deputy Hall Master Qin about this matter yourself, please."
Lin Yan was a little disappointed when he didn't hear the answer he wanted. He looked around the tunnel again and said with a smile, "Let's ask Secret Agent Duan to lead the way."
Duan Qing didn't reply and silently led the way. Lin Yan touched his nose and followed closely.
This underground secret passage was twists and turns, extending in all directions. Lin Yan and the two walked for almost half an hour, but there was still no end to the underground secret passage.
Lin Yan's memory is transcendent, and he remembers all the roads he took before. Most of the love roads were detours, going back and forth, making people mistakenly think that the underground passages are complicated and they can't remember the way. Of course, this underground passage is complicated. The passages are indeed intricate. Excluding those repeated detours, there are at least forty horizontal and vertical passages, staggered in pairs, extremely complicated.
Such a complicated underground secret passage requires an extremely huge amount of engineering work. A year and a half is considered a short time.
After walking in a winding circle for about a quarter of an hour, the vision suddenly opened up. At some point, the two of them had exited the underground passage.
The exit of the passage is surrounded by rockeries, and there is an artificial garden lake four to five feet in front, with beautiful scenery.
This is a garden.
Lin Yan raised his eyebrows. According to his calculations, this place should be outside Yuncheng.
Entering the city and then exiting the city through the underground secret passage was quite interesting.
After wandering around the garden for a while, Duan Qing took Lin Yan to the study, where Qin Wuya was writing with a pen.
Lin Yan looked around. There were scrolls hanging everywhere in the study, all with big characters written on them.
Among these words, the word "Martial Arts" is written most often.
Qin Wuya didn't raise his head and said calmly: "What do you think, Master Lin, of the writing?"
"Majestic and majestic." Lin Yan said with a smile, "It's a pity that it's a little less solid." Qin Wuya raised his head in surprise, glanced at Lin Yan, and then glanced at the words around him, and suddenly smiled and said: "It's true. rational."
"Duan Qing, serve tea!" Qin Wuya put down the pen in his hand, motioned Lin Yan to sit down, and said, "Fort Master Lin Shao was so powerful that day, Qin will never forget it."
"Hallmaster Qin has extensive knowledge and noble status. He has friendship with the heads of the three sects and six sects. He has also interacted with Xiao Qianjue, the current leader of the martial arts alliance. Lin's martial arts skills back then are not worth mentioning." Yan said modestly.
"It's just a false position." Qin Wuya said with a smile, "I'm old and can't compare to you young people. This martial arts world will be your young people's world from now on."
Lin Yan smiled and said: "Master Qin Tang is in the prime of life. It is really serious to say that he is old."
"This time, more Hall Master Qin will help." Lin Yan cupped his hands and thanked him, "Without Brother Duan's help, I would be in danger."
"It's just a trivial matter, no need to thank you." Qin Wuya waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "I just don't want to see a true young talent fall so easily."
"For Hall Master Qin, this is a small matter, but for me, it is a life-saving matter." Lin Yan said, "It's just that I don't know something, so I would like Hall Master Qin to give me some advice."
"But it doesn't matter." Qin Wuya seemed to know Lin Yan's intention and was not surprised.
Lin Yan glanced at Qin Wuya and said: "To be honest, since I was assassinated half a month ago, several major events have happened one after another on the way. The killer of Mie, Lian Chenghao, who has advanced martial arts, challenged me to fight, and today he was killed by six There must be a mastermind behind the siege by the top experts. If Hall Master Qin knows something about it, please make it clear to Hall Master Qin."
"This matter... I do know some inside information." Qin Wuya said, "This is a situation. In the past few days, some major events have happened in the Central Plains. I wonder if Master Lin has heard about it."
Lin Yan thought about it carefully and said: "I only know that the two major gangs, the Zhongyuan Cao Gang and the Jusha Gang, were fighting each other, killing people and setting fires, and almost burned down half the city." This matter was widely spread in the world, and Lin Yan was also following it On the way to Yuncheng, I heard it while drinking.
This incident caused an uproar in the Central Plains martial arts world, otherwise it would not have spread to the southwest in just half a month. The two gangs fought and burned half of the city. Even the government intervened and arrested some martial arts people.
"These two gangs are considered to be the two largest gangs in the Central Plains. One is in charge of water transportation from the north and south of the Central Plains, and the other is in charge of the ship business in the inland sea of the Central Plains. They have been doing nothing for many years and even cooperate with each other. If there is no reason, how can Are they going to fight each other?" Qin Wuya sneered, "With the intelligence capabilities of our Shenlong Hall, we have found clues. The reason why these two gangs are fighting is because a villain was responsible for stealing the Cao Gang's water transportation map. , and put it in the room of Sha Tongtian, the leader of the Jusha Gang. Sha Tongtian was also in a fog, and before he could deal with the matter, people from the Cao Gang came to the door. "
