Chapter 169 - Deep Friendship (4)
In the evening, the owner of Yi Zhai placed wine in the Juyi Hall to entertain Fang Lei and the woman in red.
At the wine table, the master of Yi Zhai sat in the chief, arranged Fang Lei to his left, and arranged the woman in red to sit under Fang Lei; Arrange the deputy village master Yi on the right, arrange the head of the village to sit under Yi Wei, and there are more than ten leaders of the village who are in charge.
The principal Yi Fa first stood up and toasted Fang Lei, and said: "Here is a small principal in the cottage, called Yi Fa, who went out with more than a dozen brothers to run errands a few days ago and came back in the afternoon, so I never knew Fang Gongzi and the woman in red, now I toast to the two of them, and drink first in the next one!" ”
When he said, he tilted his neck and went down, Fang Lei also held a full glass of wine in both hands, and said respectfully: "The junior has just arrived, I don't know the rules in the village, today I will temporarily borrow flowers to offer Buddha, respect the owner of the village, the deputy owner of the village, the director of Yi and the brothers here, where the number of gifts is not enough, please forgive me, the junior has thanked you here!" ”
The people present, in addition to the matter of Lord Yi, everyone has seen Fang Lei's peerless skills, all of them admired it so much, they all stood up and toasted to Fang Lei, Lord Yi Zhai saw it, his heart was overjoyed, Fang Gongzi was so worshiped by everyone, he didn't need to bother to speak, he recommended him in front of the public, saving a lot of thoughts.
The deputy owner of the village turned out to be an orphan, was accepted as a righteous son by the owner of the village, more than 20 years, more than the owner of the village meticulously cared for, at the age of twelve, he took him out to wander the rivers and lakes, teach martial arts, and get his true heritage, although the swordsmanship is not as perfect as the master of the village, but the dance will rise, it is also like a wheel turning, handy, even the swordsmanship of Wu Xiangdong, also defeated under his hands, not surprising.
He saw that Fang Lei was excellent in martial arts, with a bold personality, he was a righteous gentleman and a hero in the martial arts, and he had already admired it in his heart.
But said that Fang Lei came to Duanzhou this time to collect the "King of Lingnan", a thief who dominated one side, supported the army and rebelled against the imperial court, so that the emperor Lao'er would eradicate him, and let this place that wantonly amassed wealth and looted the people's fat and ointment get the punishment he deserved.
He automatically stayed in the cottage, that is, he found that the owner of Yi Zhai was in the territory of Duanzhou, with many eyes and ears, maybe in the "Lingnan Palace", there was also his "undercover", which was stronger than him like a headless fly, scurrying around, at least there was a direction of investigation, he had to wait until the owner of Yi Zhai and himself became "friends of the year", nothing to say, nothing to talk about, and then to him to talk in detail about the true intention of this trip to Duanzhou.
As the saying goes: the friendship of gentlemen is as light as water, the friendship of villains is as sweet as sugar, on the wine table, it seems that he is overly enthusiastic, or change the master, he constantly and frequently advises wine, flattering and saying: "I heard the brothers say, Fang Gongzi has a unique skill, strong means, can go up in the air, can smash boulders, non-martial arts masters can be the enemy, looking at the overall situation of the rivers and lakes, martial arts masters are like clouds, with Fang Gongzi's peerless skills, defeat the martial arts masters of all factions, it is easy as a snap, to make a name for himself on the lake, it is not a difficult thing, why not open a mountain in the martial arts, Do a vigorous cause, but want to nest in Qingfeng Village and do nothing? ”
When Yi Wei heard this, it seemed that he was going to drive away Fang Gongzi, so he was angry and said, "What do you know? The main owner of the village left Fang Gongzi behind, just to entrust them with a heavy task to deal with the secret organization under the King of Lingnan, and the thieves who were coerced and lured by them to take refuge in the past, just like the thieves in Jinjiling Cottage, not letting them do anything wrong and harm the people! ”
When the master of Yi Zhai heard this, he nodded and said, "Master Fang, what Yi Wei said is from the bottom of his heart, do you know the old man's good intentions?" ”
"The junior will never live up to the expectations of the senior!" Fang Lei said affirmatively.
After a full meal and wine, everyone retreated one after another, Fang Lei seemed to be drunk, and he was swaying even when he stood up, the deputy owner of the village hurriedly came over to help him, and the woman in red also followed behind, walking straight to the guest room.
When Master Yi saw it, a sinister smile appeared on his face.
The deputy owner of the village helped Fang Lei into the room and said to Mo Ling: "The woman in red! You live next door, there are bright posts and secret posts everywhere in the cottage, and if something is called, someone will arrive immediately! ”
Waiting for the deputy owner to walk away, Fang Lei whispered: "Miss Mo! Go back to your room and rest! ”
"Young Master Fang! So you're not drunk! Mo Ling also asked in a low voice.
Fang Lei said: "Tell you honestly! I can get the smell of alcohol out of my body silently, and if you think about it, will a person who drinks water get drunk? ”
"Then why are you pretending to be drunk?" Mo Ling asked puzzled.
Fang Lei smiled: "Intuitively, something will happen tonight, I hope you can also wake up and sleep!" ”
When Mo Ling walked out of the door, he whispered, "The concubine also guessed who it was!" ”
In the middle of the night, in the hazy moonlight, there were two black shadows quietly touching Fang Lei's guest room, and when they went to the window, they looked inside, Fang Lei was sleeping soundly, and the even snoring sound could be faintly heard, and the two of them were secretly happy in their hearts, surnamed Fang, you are going to die tonight.
One of them used a dagger to pry open the door latch, and the other also walked in, and the advanced one held the dagger high and whispered: "The surname Fang, it's not my two brothers who want to kill you, it's someone who instructs, there is a road in heaven that you don't go, and there is no door in hell to enter, what do you do with a small Qingfeng Village?" What do you want to do? When you go to the underworld, you will become a powerful ghost, don't seek revenge on my two brothers, it's not that we are determined to kill you, but that power-hungry man, afraid that his position as the head will be taken away by you, so he instructed us to do it! ”
As he spoke, he plunged the dagger straight into Fang Lei's chest, and at this moment, only a crisp sound of "bell" was heard, and the man was bounced back five or six steps, and asked in astonishment: "Could it be that your body is made of steel?" ”
Fang Lei suddenly turned over and sat on the ground, and said with a smile: "It's not that I'm bragging, the person who can kill this son hasn't been born yet?" ”
The two were about to escape, but Mo Ling had already pulled out his long sword and stopped at the door of the room, shouting: "As long as you two dare to step out of the door for half a step, you will immediately be splattered with blood!" ”
At this time, the bright and dark sentinels in the village had already run out one after another, and shouted loudly: "There are assassins, there are assassins, everyone come and catch the assassins!" ”
All of a sudden, the villagers who lit torches and held swords in their hands poured over like a tide, surrounding the front and back of the house.
Who are these two assassins? Can you still get away with it?
