This snow came so quickly that it caught people off guard.
Especially the common people were very surprised. It was obviously past the snowing season, and the previous snowfall was just after the snowing season. The common people could understand it, but now it is really weird.
This winter is different.
Only a few people know what this snow means.
For example, Zhao Qixing in the gambling shop.
When Zhao Qi walked out of the gambling house, his face was in high spirits. If you didn't know better, you would have thought that he won a lot today, but in fact it was just the opposite. As usual, he lost everything.
These days, Zhao Qixing has become quite familiar with this gambling house in Kyoto. All kinds of gamblers are willing to play with him. The reason is very simple. This guy has no gambling skills at all, and he never cares about those miscellaneous off-the-book tricks. It all depends on your mood and money.
He is simply a gift-giving boy.
However, the gambler thinks so, but the owner of the gambling house does not think so. He is much better informed than the gamblers. He knows that Zhao Qixing is a guest of the Gu family, so every time Zhao Qixing loses money, he will Secretly send someone to send some more to Zhao Qixing.
In this regard, Zhao Qixing naturally did not shirk and accepted it generously.
A gambler followed Zhao Qixing out and said with a bad smile: "Little Taoist priest, you seem to be in a good mood today, are you going to play two more games?"
The gambler had just lost a lot of money, and he saw that the guy in the gambling house secretly stuffed a lot of money into Zhao Qixing, so he came up to chat with him, hoping to win some back from him.
Zhao Qixing shook the money bag in his hand, glanced at the gambler, stuffed the money bag directly into his hand, and said with a smile: "No more gambling, it's snowing today."
The gambler didn't know why, but he looked at the money bag in his hand and nodded and bowed to thank him.
Zhao Qixing was walking in the snow. Not long after he walked, he heard the loud sound of horse hooves in his ears.
Looking up, he saw the city gate in front of him wide open. Countless cavalrymen wearing armor were entering the city quickly. The man in the lead had a deep scar on his face, and his skin had long been ruined by the wind and sand, but there was no trace of anything. One person will judge him.
Zhao Qixing naturally knew about this person.
Yang Yang, the head coach of Yanyun Tianyang Camp.
Following Yang Yang was a woman, with a rather unyielding attitude.
After entering the city, the cavalry did not stop, but rushed directly onto the streets and ran all the way.
Naturally, the people hurriedly dodge, and for a while only war horses could be seen galloping on the street.
But Zhao Qixing didn't take it seriously and still stood on the street. His Taoist robe seemed to be incompatible with these cavalry troops.
Yang Yang had already noticed the Taoist priest. He rode his horse and stopped less than an inch in front of the Taoist priest. He looked at the Taoist priest and asked, "Zhao Qixing?"
Zhao Qi bowed and said, "I have met the head coach of Tianyang Camp."
Yang Yang's lips curved, "You seem to know that I will come."
Zhao Qixing shook his head and denied, "I don't know, it's just a coincidence."
Yang Yang nodded and did not continue speaking. Han Jiajia, who was standing by, had some opinions about the Taoist priest and asked, "Little Taoist priest, let me ask you, what is the situation in Kyoto now?"
Yang Yang hurriedly stopped Han Jiajia, looked at Zhao Qixing, and apologized: "My wife has a bad temper, don't worry about her."
Zhao Qixing laughed it off.
"I would also like to ask Taoist Master Zhao to tell me, my dear brother, to thank him for letting the Yang family go."
Yang Yang waved his hand, and the cavalry moved forward slowly, passing through Zhao Qixing and quickly disappearing from the street.
Zhao Qixing looked back at the cavalry and suddenly said, "It's really lively."
Gu Xiaotian naturally already knew the news about Yang Yang's entry into the city.
On his own territory, nothing could escape his ears.
However, Yang Yang did not visit directly, which was expected.
A war is about to begin, and everyone has something to do. At this time, reminiscing about old times,
Out of place.
At the same time, an old man named Baixu outside the city also entered the city comfortably.
The old man walked slowly and had a hunched body. Many passers-by didn't take it seriously, but if they knew his identity, their jaws would probably drop.
The old man came step by step to the gate of the ancient mansion. The yamen guard at the gate of the ancient mansion immediately stopped in front of the old man and warned: "You are not allowed to approach the important place of the ancient mansion without the personal invitation of the owner of the family."
With the current situation in turmoil, Gu Xiaotian naturally put some strict requirements on these government officials.
The old man coughed twice, then slowly took out a token from his pocket, "Please tell this to your family leader and ask him to come out to see me along with Gu."
A government official was surprised when he took the token.
That is the token of the Heaven and Earth Alliance.
Such a token cannot be faked, because there are some different things in the token, and only those who are true members of the Heaven and Earth Alliance will know these things.
The two government officials nodded immediately, but as soon as they turned around, the door slowly opened from the inside.
Zhang Sheng stepped out of the threshold, bowed respectfully towards the old man and said, "Chief Yuan Wu, Alliance Leader Gu has been waiting for you for a long time."
Listening to Zhang Sheng's words, the two government officials were even more shocked.
Yuan Wu Chief?
There are many people with the surname Yuan in the world, but there seems to be only one who can be called Yuan Wushou.
Yuan Huaqing glanced at Zhang Sheng for a few times and asked in confusion: "Is Gu Qingfeng crazy because of the lack of people? Can someone like you join the Heaven and Earth Alliance?"
The two government officials had simply found a corner and stayed silent.
They really couldn't afford to offend these two figures in front of them.
Zhang Sheng, however, was not convinced and said with a smile: "Of course Alliance Leader Gu has his own considerations, and I also ask Chief Yuan Wu to follow me into the main room."
Yuan Huaqing curled his lips, but in the end he followed Zhang Sheng obediently.
Originally, he wanted that boy Gu Qingfeng to come and greet him in a nice voice, but it turned out that he had already guessed it and turned against him.
After entering the ancient mansion, Yuan Huaqing asked directly: "Boy, do you know who I am and are you not afraid at all?"
Zhang Sheng shook his head, "The Yuanwu Chief is one of our own now, there is nothing to be afraid of."
"Are you so confident? When I slaughtered the world with one man and one sword, you must not have been born yet."
Yuan Huaqing clicked his tongue and said, "I am a dog. I will fall out whenever I want. Even if I kill you now, Gu Qingfeng will not dare to say no."
Zhang Sheng stopped, then turned to look at Yuan Huaqing and uttered three words.
"you will not."
Yuan Huaqing shook his eyebrows and waited for Zhang Sheng to continue.
"There is no point in killing me. Even if you kill me, Alliance Leader Gu will still be able to find someone to replace me tomorrow. Moreover, there should be no benefit to Yuan Wu Chief from killing me. It is nothing more than seeking pleasure in his heart. Yuan Wu Chief will survive. After all these years, I don’t think I’ll take this little thing to heart.”
Yuan Huaqing waved his hand, finally understanding why this humble boy in front of him could join the Heaven and Earth Alliance.
In such a state, he can still remain so calm when facing himself, which is probably because he really has confidence in his heart.
This reminded Yuan Huaqing of Qi You, the same year he met Qi You for the first time.
Zhang Sheng and Qi You in front of them are indeed the same kind of people.
Zhang Sheng led Yuan Huaqing all the way to the main room, knocked on the door gently, and then pushed it open. Gu Qingfeng and Gu Xiaotian were already waiting inside. Gu Qingfeng even jumped up pretending to be surprised, "Old Yuan, , the flowers I waited for you have withered, why did you come?"
Yuan Huaqing shook off the thin snow on his clothes, walked straight to a seat, sat down, and coldly snorted: "You have something special."
Gu Qingfeng smiled and said nothing.
As a sword cultivator, how could Yuan Huaqing not know that Gu Qingfeng had taken that step now.
At first, Yuan Huaqing was a little surprised. His request to Gu Qingfeng for the sword embryo was actually just an attempt. If Gu Qingfeng didn't agree, he could take a step back and ask for other benefits. Who would have thought that Gu Qingfeng would agree so readily? .
If the sword embryo was in Gu Qingfeng's hands, he would probably be able to take that step.
However, these are all assumptions, and no one can guarantee whether it will work.
Gu Qingfeng got straight to the point and said: "Old Yuan, time is tight and the task is heavy. You should not come to Kyoto for no reason."
Yuan Huaqing nodded, took out a secret letter from his pocket and placed it on the table.
Gu Qingfeng took the secret letter and kept frowning.
Then, he waved to Zhang Sheng who was standing aside.
Gu Qingfeng handed the secret letter to Zhang Sheng. After Zhang Sheng looked at it for a few times, he first asked a simple question.
"Are you sure this handwriting is Qin Qinglin's own handwriting?"
Yuan Huaqing nodded and said: "There can be no lies. Although I am getting older, my eyesight is not dazzled. What's more, I have worked with him for more than ten years, and I will not admit his mistakes in his handwriting."
Zhang Sheng then asked the second question, "Then why is this secret letter in your hand?"
Yuan Huaqing tilted his head, "Is it important?"
Zhang Sheng nodded seriously.
"This secret letter really shouldn't be in my hands, but my white-clothed guards are naturally not vegetarians. This letter was intercepted from the hands of Xueyilou."
Gu Xiaotian couldn't help but frown when he heard about Xueyilou.
Shouldn't the Bloody Clothes Tower have been destroyed long ago during the battle with Yan Yun?
And their building owner died at the hands of his senior brother.
Yuan Huaqing saw Gu Xiaotian's doubts and answered: "Don't underestimate the Quanwuhui. The Quanwuhui has been able to stand for so many years not only by a few martial leaders, but also by the twelve on the sixth floor." The operation of the rudder depends only on the original poster. As long as Qin Qinglin is given time, he can train a better candidate than the original poster. "
Zhang Sheng groped his chin, if it was the 12th rudder on the sixth floor, then things would be different.
Gu Qingfeng asked: "What do you think?"
Zhang Sheng said truthfully: "The secret letter said that we should unite with the Sixth Floor to attack Kyoto, but I think it's a bit fishy."
"Why is it strange?"
"The current state of the All-Martial Arts Association is that there are more monks than meat. Even if we include Song Bufan, the seven martial leaders, there are still only three of them. They cannot command the twelve rudders on the sixth floor. And this secret letter is indeed directly I suspect that letting the Sixth Floor attack Kyoto is just a cover."
Gu Qingfeng thought for a while and said, "But they will definitely come."
Zhang Sheng also nodded and admitted: "It will definitely come, but if we only rely on the sixth floor, it will only make the battle more intense, but it will have no real effect."
Gu Qingfeng suddenly thought of something and looked at Zhang Sheng for the answer.
Zhang Sheng smiled and said: "The alliance leader guessed it right. This secret letter should have been written by Qi You and Qin Qinglin. His goal is not to capture Kyoto, but to lure you out of Kyoto."
