There is a saying in the world that the tree falls and the tree scatters. If this sentence is used to describe the current Liuyun Gang, it is very appropriate.

Decades of prestige, black and white, such a big gang of mighty rivers and lakes, was swept away by the little marquis, this cannot but be said to be the biggest legend since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

The gang leader Guo Xie beheaded the Zhu clan, and most of the brothers in the gang were arrested and sent to hard labor, but there were also many remnants who escaped. Far away in the mountains and forests, hidden in the grass, full of resentment, looking forward to the opportunity to take revenge.

Zhu Mu and Zhu Gang, the two Zhu brothers, are such people. Now their goal is to wait for an opportunity to kill Changle Hou, which has become their only task alive.

Because the first people to die at the hands of Yuan Zhao were all their usual brothers on Guan Handao's side, including their own brother Zhu You.

As the saying goes, "Snakes have snake paths, and rats have rat nests." Although the Liuyun Gang can't go back, they naturally have another place to hide.

At this time, there were also one hundred and eighty people gathered under their hands, most of them were homeless and unemployed bachelors, all of whom had done many evils in the past, and knew that their sins were great and could not be forgiven, and they fled from now on. Among them are the only two remaining Dark Hall Elders, Mo Yunzi and Soul Breaker.

None of the people who followed Guo Xie to Chang'an could come back, so no one could see what kind of powerful method that little marquis was. But how old can a minor child be to cultivate, not by the means of the government? No matter how powerful the gang is, it can't withstand the impact of the light cavalry!

The belief in revenge has always been in their hearts, For this reason, they have made a lot of preparations during this time, going in and out of Chang'an many times, and finding out a lot about their opponents.

In order to succeed as much as possible and do it properly, the two elders also went to visit a peerless master who had been retired for many years, and wanted to ask him to come out of the mountain to help.

It's just that after hearing what happened, this cultivator, who had a great relationship with the Liuyun Gang, although his face flashed with imperceptible anger several times, he finally refused their request.

Jianghu affairs, enmity in the world, he doesn't want to care anymore. In the past five or six years, he has lived in seclusion in the depths of Zhongnan, cultivating diligently, sharpening his state of mind, and cultivating martial arts to enter the realm rapidly, which is not the same as when he was alone in the world.

Seeing that he had a clear attitude, Mo Yunzi and Soul Breaker didn't dare to force it, so they had to go back in a huff. Although the two of them are also old qualifications on the rivers and lakes, in front of this person, they must be respectful and dare not have a trace of neglect.

Because in the hands of this person, the lives of two princes and one important minister have been ended! Even the Emperor Jing of Han was almost killed by him.

The name of the person who inherited all the remnants of the Spring and Autumn Warriors was Gai Sheng, whose name is not found in any written records, but he was a truly powerful figure hidden in the world.

According to legend, before the main hall of Weiyang Palace, when the ministers went to court, an assassin swooped down from the corner of the palace like a flying eagle, pierced the chest with a sword, stabbed the minister to death on the imperial steps, and then disappeared in the pursuit of thousands of Yulin guards, and disappeared.

The minister who was killed was Yuan An, the red-haired and purple doctor who was beside Emperor Jing at that time.

At that time, Yuan Ang and Dou Ying were the most important ministers in the court, the emperor's right-hand man, Yuan Ang was killed in Weiyang Palace, the emperor was furious, and Chang'an was shaken!

For this matter, the emperor used the tiger talisman to mobilize the Beiying army and blockade Chang'an Dasuo for nearly a month, but no trace of the assassin was found, and finally he had to give up with hatred.

That thing was the masterpiece of this guy Sheng. People in the world say that he was hired by King Liang to assassinate Yuan An, but few people know that this sword in the Weiyang Palace is just to repay the kindness of a loyal minister who died unjustly......

Seeing the figures of the two followers who had once been his own gradually disappearing, the swordsman, who was already the pinnacle of the world, seemed to remember some past, turned around and came to a small house with a log thatched roof, and opened a door that had not been opened for a long time.

There was nothing else in the room, except for a row of simple wooden shelves, nine sword cases in turn.

A pair of slightly old hands opened them one by one, revealing the true face of a sword with different shapes.

Nine sword cases, eight swords, but the last one was empty.

A sword was gently unsheathed by half an inch, as if there was a glow and a bright interior! The sharp sword qi blew a strand of white hair like snow, and the gaze was infinitely cherished, and after a long time, he whispered to himself.

"The one that was stained with blood at the beginning, let you go to the world to kill the treacherous, but I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of an unknown junior today...... In that case, it's time to go home! ”

No one thought that the legendary nine Spring and Autumn Ancient Swords in the world were all in this inconspicuous grass house in the depths of Zhongnan Mountain. In the hands of this cultivator named Gai Sheng.

Mo Feng, Yu Xue, Red Fire, Purple Sword, Ganjiang, Blue Water, Fish Intestines, and Qingge Eight Swords are in the box, and the only thing missing is the heavy sword!

Yuan Zhao did not go back to Chang'an today, nor did he return to Chang'an, but took Wei Qing and Cui Hong to the foot of Linbi Mountain early in the morning.

The Zhuo family opened the middle door and greeted Changle Hou with the most solemn etiquette.

The momentum of the richest man in Shu is really extraordinary, the entire mansion covers an area of several hundred acres, and there are thousands of maids in the mansion alone. At this time, as the host lined up inside and outside the gate to greet him, I don't know what distinguished guests were coming, and they were quietly discussing.

It's no wonder that people are surprised, because it's been many years since even the head of the family was alarmed like this. Usually, officials such as the prefectural magistrate and the county guard come to visit, and the head of the family just waits in front of the dripping eaves in the hall.

When the three horses came to the front from afar, the guests and hosts greeted each other, and everyone was even more surprised that the distinguished guest who was waiting was such a young person!

Zhuo Xun is in his fifties, pampered and well-maintained for many years, his face is ruddy, very energetic, and a pair of small eyes occasionally flash with shrewdness.

He had already heard his daughter Zhuo Wenjun and son-in-law Sima Xiangru give a detailed introduction to the situation of Yuan Zhao, and when he saw it at this time, he looked at it slightly, and with his countless eyes, he had a clear judgment in his heart, this son is really extraordinary!

Sima Xiangru, who came to inform the news a day in advance, introduced the two sides and welcomed each other hand in hand, and Yuan Zhao presented the gift to the old man, but it was two cans of several new teas, all of which were specially newly fried.

Zhuo Xun really liked it very much, laughed, and was very hearty.

"I have heard the name of this new tea for a long time, and I know that it is the original creation of the little marquis, and the little girl has also brought back one or two before, the old man loves it very much, and has always been reluctant to drink, and today it is given by the little marquis, which is really happy! Hahaha. ”

"The old man is so polite! Sister Wen and Brother Sima have been in contact with me for a long time, and they should have come to visit my uncle a long time ago, but there are too many miscellaneous things, so it is rude to delay coming until today. Hehe. Yuan Zhao was very polite in his words.

"Hey, the little marquis is out when he says this, isn't it? Wen Jun has already said many times in front of the old man that he has just met a little friend, who is a rare figure in this world, and it seems that today it is really so! What about Yu'er? Hurry up and find Zhuo Yu, let him get close to the little marquis. ”

The old man was even more happy when he saw that Yuan Zhao's words were respectful to him, and he loudly ordered to find the little son, and the butler who was standing next to him had already ordered someone to find him.

Sima Xiangru was talking to Wei Qing and Cui Hong on the side, they were already old acquaintances, so they didn't have to be polite to each other.

After a while, the little boy Zhuo Yu came, saw his father and brother-in-law in turn, and then saluted the guests, standing aside and peeking at them.

He is the youngest son of the Zhuo family, and he is the same age as Cui Hong, but his face is very similar to that of his eldest sister Wenjun, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and he is very handsome.

At that moment, the steward had already come to report that the banquet had been set up, and he was invited to the banquet.

The Zhuo family has been rich for three generations, magnificent, and the banquet is not to mention. The guests and hosts frequently persuaded to drink, laughed and talked, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

"The name of Changle Hou, the old man has heard about it for a long time, and at a young age, he is already a scholar and martial artist, especially the way of economy, which is the most convincing to the old man!"

When the wine was half-drunk, Zhuo Xun smiled and looked at Yuan Zhao, and the words of praise were obviously from the heart.

Yuan Zhao looked at Sima Xiangru, and saw that he nodded to himself, knowing that this old man must have inquired about everything about himself in detail.

"Uncle has won the prize! It's just a little Doyle, and it's hard to get into everyone's eyes. Hehe! ”

"The little marquis doesn't have to be modest, the old man asks himself how many inches he has a vision! Moreover, I say this today, but not for the sake of compliment. ”

At this point, he paused and glanced at his youngest son, who was listening respectfully.

"It's rare for Changle Hou to come here today, and it's also fate, but my Zhuo family has a reluctant request, and I hope the little marquis will agree."

Yuan Zhao was slightly stunned, the reason why he came here today was because there was a very important thing to be made with the help of the Zhuo family's smelting. However, people need to make some requests...... It's understandable.

"As long as I can do it, I will definitely say yes!"

"Good! The little marquis is really a cheerful person. With this, what is needed for production in the future, although the command is that the Zhuo family will cooperate sincerely and will never make a mistake. The old man's only request is to ask the little marquis to take my little son Zhuo Yu with him, if you can train one or two from time to time, the old man is grateful! ”

"That's no problem, there is a shortage of manpower over there in Changle Yuan, if the little boy can help by my side, Yuan Zhao will thank the old man."

"Hahaha...... That's great! Although Yu'er has been smart since he was a child, the old man is always worried that without a famous teacher, his future will be missed. can get the favor of the little marquis, and the old man is already satisfied! ”

Zhuo Xun has read countless people, his eyes are vicious, and he has already made a rough judgment about Yuan Zhao from the mouth of his daughter and son-in-law. If you don't tie your family to him at this time, when will you stay? That is why such a request was made.

Immediately ordered the little boy Zhuo Yu to worship Yuan Zhao, which was regarded as an official implementation of the matter.

Zhuo Yu obviously knew about the deeds of this little marquis from his most admired brother-in-law, Sima Xiangru, especially those heroic poems, which he liked very much. To have such an opportunity to follow Yuan Zhao's side, of course, I was very excited.

At present, these private matters have been recounted, and gradually turned to the main topic. A few years ago, Yuan Zhao had already handed over the drawings for making the cocoon and loom to them, and the Zhuo family lived up to expectations, and recently made several models, which could be made on a large scale after the imperial court inspected and approved.

In this regard, the Zhuo family attaches great importance to it, and this is a major event that will shine in the annals of history in the future. Therefore, the craftsmanship is very well-made, and Yuan Zhao is also very satisfied after seeing it.

"So what is the little marquis going to make this time?"

With everyone's curious eyes, Yuan Zhao put his hand into his arms, took out the picture that he had spent several days drawing on the cloth with his memory little by little, and solemnly laid it on the case.

"What I want you to do for me this time is not for the benefit of the world, uh, it's for murder. A militaristic heavy weapon, a killer weapon for cavalry combat! Come and see...... Hehe. ”

Plain words, ordinary cloth, simple outline, but what is about to appear is a magic weapon that makes the Han cavalry like a tiger!

"Nine-armed chain crossbow"! On this early spring afternoon, he appeared in this world for the first time .......
