The next day, Shen Yun went out on the street after breakfast.

He found a beggar, threw him a silver tael or two, and asked, "Tell me, where can I find your head?"

The beggar shook his head, and Shen Yun smiled and threw him another silver .....

After a while, the beggar put the ten taels of silver in his hand into his arms, and said in a low voice: "Hundred miles east of the city, abandon the Taoist temple!"

Shen Yun walked out of the east city gate and galloped towards the place where the beggar had guided.

......

Half an hour later, in front of the abandoned Taoist temple.

Shen Yun stood with his hands in his hands and asked the young beggar guarding the door, "Is your helper inside?"

The young beggar said, "The incense has been cut off here, please go back!"

The corners of Shen Yun's mouth curled slightly, ignored the other party, and walked slowly towards the closed gate.

"Why are you so ignorant!"

The young beggar stretched out his hand to block his way.

Shen Yun smiled slightly, raised his leg and swept the young beggar into the grass next to the Taoist temple, and stepped on the gate.

Bang!

The gate fell in response, and Shen Yun stepped into the view.

A group of beggars rushed out of the main hall, which was still intact, and surrounded him.

"Who is the leader?" asked Shen Yun calmly.

An old man in his mid-sixties, still well-dressed, walked out of the crowd.

"Follow me!" Shen Yun said, turning around and walking outside.

The old man followed him without saying a word, and when he saw him stop, he immediately stopped.

"Honorific name?"

"Shang Shirong!"

Shen Yun turned around and threw the warning paper ball over.

Shang Shirong took the paper ball and stuffed it into his arms without looking at it.

Then he took out a piece of paper and handed it to Shen Yun with both hands.

Shen Yun took it and saw that it was the gambling contract that Cao Mo had lost.

He put the paper into his arms and said in a low voice: "There are many people here, and the younger generations will not pay tribute to the seniors for the time being!"

Shang Shirong said: "Childe, since you have found here, then there is no need to hide this matter anymore, tomorrow at dawn, I will wait for you at the east gate, after the convergence, I will take you to a place!"

Shen Yun asked, "I still have to participate in the freshman challenge on the first day of next month, is it too late?"

Shang Shirong replied, "No problem!"

Shen Yun nodded, and then said in a loud voice: "This Taoist temple has been taken by our master, you are limited to leave immediately, and anyone who does not obey will be killed!"

......

At dawn the next day, Shen Yun arrived at the place agreed with Shang Shirong on time.

Seeing that there were more than ten people with the latter, although he felt a little puzzled in his heart, he didn't ask too much.

Shang Shirong pointed to the group of horses behind everyone, and smiled at Shen Yun: "Childe, choose one!"

Shen Yun smiled, picked a red horse at random, and hummed softly while stroking its neck.

After a few breaths, the jujube red horse's unruly gaze became docile, and he slowly lowered his head, rubbing on Shen Yun's shoulder.

Shen Yun patted the horse's head lightly, jumped on the horse's back, and said, "Let's go!"

"Ah...... Okay!" Shang Shirong came back to his senses for a long time, and then shouted to the people who were just as angry as him, "Don't get on the horse yet!"

In his previous life, Shen Yun received special training that even he himself could not remember, and the team members once joked that except for giving birth to children, there is nothing in the world that can hardly get a captain.

......

At ten o'clock in the evening, the crowd came to a farm surrounded by water.

At the water's edge, there is a circle of large banyan trees with a thickness of four or five meters.

A few branches of trees poked into the water, gently swaying with the gentle breeze that swept by, creating layers of ripples.

Under the stone bridge, a group of white geese sometimes chase and play, and sometimes look for fish and shrimp hidden under the aquatic plants.

Occasionally, he sang to the smug curved neck of the sky.

Shen Yun was intoxicated by the beautiful scenery in front of him, and Shang Shirong and everyone did not disturb him, waiting quietly on the side.

Shen Yun gradually came back to his senses, threw his stirrups off his horse, and asked Shang Shirong, "...... is this?"

Shang Shirong dismounted, ordered the servant to take two empty horses into the village first, and then smiled at Shen Yun: "This place is called the old man's village." ”

The two of them walked into the farm, and in a short time they came to the largest house in the village.

"Childe, please!"

"Senior, please!"

Shen Yun, under the guidance of Shang Shirong, came to the hall of a separate courtyard.

After taking a seat, a maid will serve refreshments.

"Go down, tell the dining hall to prepare wine, I want to have a good drink with my son tonight!" Shang Shirong ordered.

"Yes, master!" replied the maid, and walked away.

Shen Yun took a sip of tea from the teacup, put it down, pondered for a moment, and said: "The Shang family, the former Lin'an Wang clan, lost to the Cao family, the strongest warrior clan, in the Lin'an Huiwu more than sixty years ago, and then suffered a series of accidents, and was finally rushed into the clan mansion by a group of masked people......

Shen Yun saw that Shang Shirong's eyes were already a little red, and he didn't continue to say the rest of the words.

Shang Shirong was silent for a while, and said: "Cao Ang has the ambition of a hero, and the son must not be deceived by his hypocrisy!"

"Thanks for reminding me!" Shen Yun nodded, "I heard that after Cao Mo's father died, Cao Ang took the opportunity to possess his mother, so he was obedient to him?"

Shang Shirong said: "Exactly, poor Cao Mo's mother committed suicide by hanging the beam yesterday!"

Shen Yun sighed: "Although the South Barrier Reef is not as dangerous as Xibei Bay, it is also a life of nine deaths in the past, even if there is cultivation, I am afraid that it will not be able to last for ten years."

I thought it was Cao Mo's mother who begged Cao Ang to save Cao Mo for the sake of love, but was categorically rejected by the other party, and she couldn't think about it for a while, so she looked for a short time!"

Shang Shirong praised: "Childe's thoughtfulness and insight far surpass that of my generation, which is really admirable!"

Shen Yun got up and bowed to Shang Shirong and said: "The person who is truly worthy of admiration is you, who has guarded us for so many years without regrets, before leaving, my mother told me to express her most sincere thanks to you!"

Shang Shirong hurriedly got up and pressed Shen Yun back to his seat, his old face turned red, and he said: "I am also entrusted by others, and I have a plan, because I can't bear such a big gift from my son!"

Shen Yun said: "Is that person of medium stature, not smiling, and there is an ink spot similar to a birthmark on his left forehead!"

Shang Shirong said with a sad face: "This ......!"

Shen Yun smiled and said, "Is it Uncle Nie who won't let you say it, or you don't want to say it!"

When Shang Shirong heard this, he immediately bowed to the ground and said respectfully: "The lord is above, please accept the next worship!"

Shen Yun hurriedly helped him up and said, "Are you going to kill the juniors, I don't think it's as good as this, let's go to your dining hall and chat while drinking, how about it?"

"Hahaha, that's exactly what I want!"

......

In the dining hall, after Shang Shirong and Shen Yun drank three cups of each other, they laughed self-deprecatingly: "I have invited the lord here, but my subordinates have suffered from gains and losses, I am really ashamed!"

Shen Yun smiled and said: "It's good to be cautious, looking at your age, it seems that you are a year or two older than my uncle, I should have called you uncle, but you also called Uncle Nie as a teacher, this generation is really entangled."

Well, if you want me to say, we might as well keep this kind of senior, son-in-law!"

"This, it's not quite appropriate!"

"It's a good fit!"

Shang Shirong nodded with a smile and said, "Since Gongzi insists, it has to be like this!"

Shen Yun picked up the wine glass, clinked glasses with Shang Shirong, drank it all, and asked, "The ins and outs of the whole thing, is it convenient for the seniors to tell me about it?"

Shang Shirong pondered for a while and said: "Back then, the Shang family was wiped out, and only a pair of brothers escaped.

They were homeless and home, and only quietly returned to Lin'an City after many years.

accidentally discovered this pure land, settled down and multiplied, but the fire of hatred in his heart was never extinguished!"

Shen Yun said: "Could it be that the Shang family's bloody case was committed by the Cao family?"

Shang Shirong gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, it's the Cao family!"

Shen Yun pondered for a while and said: "According to the Lin'an Shi Convention, the Wang clan has the right of first refusal and the right to develop the cherished resources in the territory.

At that time, the four families of Lu, Dong, He, and Shang had held the position of the wang clan for nearly a hundred years, although the Shang family lost the position of the wang clan, but with years of accumulation, the next time the martial arts are likely to make a comeback and regain everything that once belonged to them!

Presumably, the Cao family realized this, and was worried that he would be at the bottom of the next battle of the Wang clan in Lin'an Huiwu, and then be driven out of the position of the wang clan by the Shang family, so he did such a thing that the heavens and men were angry about!"

Shang Shirong nodded and said, "The pair of brothers who escaped from the Shang family are the father and uncle of the foolish brother, and after years of secret investigation, the conclusions they have reached are not much different from those analyzed by the son.

When the second elder was alive, he strictly ordered me to practice diligently, endure again and again, and wait for a good opportunity for revenge.

Ten years ago, the two elders died one after another, and everyone lost their restraints, so they proposed to immediately launch a counterattack against the Cao family.

As the successor head of the family, as soon as my mind was hot, I gathered all the elites of the clan together, dressed in a vegetarian and a white scarf on my head, and went to Lin'an City with a fierce momentum!"

Shen Yun sighed and said in his heart: "Although the courage is commendable, but knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, invincible in a hundred battles, revenge is such a big thing is so hasty, what is the difference between it and going to death!"

......

Soon after Shang Shirong led his clansmen to set off, he was stopped by a black-clothed masked man.

"Are you going to attack Lin'an City?" said the man in black coldly.

A word woke up the person in the dream, and Shang Shirong realized the absurdity of this trip.

The Cao family's slaughter of the Shang family is only known to the parties involved in the two families, and the world does not know about it.

Shang Shirong hurriedly walked in front of the man in black, bowed down and saluted: "Engong is above, please accept Shirong's worship, if it weren't for your head drink, the Shang family would really be wiped out this time!"

The man in black said: "It's not too stupid, the heart of hatred will only blind your eyes, only learn to let go, based on development, plan and then act, can you get back everything that originally belonged to you!"

Shang Shirong pondered for a moment, then knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Master teach me!"

The man in black said: "I am not a righteous person, you want me to help you, but you must promise me one condition!"

Shang Shirong immediately stood up and stood solemnly, holding his heart in his hand, and said loudly: "The Shang family is willing to serve you as a clan teacher, and always obey your teachings and dispatches, if you violate this oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed!"

The man in black took off his scarf, helped Shang Shirong up with a smile, and said, "In Xia Nie He, this is not the place to speak, go back to your village to talk in detail!"
