440 aftermath

The fierce battle of Dongting Lake lasted from afternoon to evening, but without Yin Zhanfei and his backbone, Qianzhoutang was wiped out under the crazy impact of Gejiabao and many heroes of the rivers and lakes, and although the Wuhu Gang escaped by luck, it also lost more than a dozen big ships and lost a lot of strength.

Wei Zhengyang's martial arts are good and he has never obtained the Xuangui Pill, so he left calmly under Mo Fan's advice, but when the two of them boarded the boat and saw Chu Haoyu, they saw Chu Haoyu looking at the ebony box in a daze with a gloomy face, especially Yin Zhanfei who was walking on his side, Mo Fan and Wei Zhengyang both understood that something was wrong.

Seeing Wei Zhengyang open his mouth to speak, Chu Haoyu shook his head and said: "Yin Zhanfei is the thief of the Heavenly Thorn, the Xuangui Pill was taken away by him, this box, I'm afraid it will cost the king's life." ”

Hearing Chu Haoyu's words, with the state of mind of Mo Fan and Wei Zhengyang, they were also a little surprised, at this moment, Chu Haoyu explained: "Everything is laid out by the fourth uncle, Dong San is my Chu family's secret agent, luring the heavenly thorn traitor to appear, Yin Zhanfei has already sent the Xuangui Dan away, this black cauldron, but this king still has to carry it." ”

At this moment, Mo Fan and Wei Zhengyang seemed to understand the reason for Chu Haoyu's anger, he might not take a Xuangui Pill to heart, but he was calculated to carry this black cauldron even though he didn't get it, which made him feel uncomfortable. Looking at Chu Haoyu, Mo Fan opened his mouth and said: "Listening to Gongzi say this, this Yin Zhanfei's identity should not be low, as long as he can pry his mouth open, the harvest should not be small." ”

After all, he is a determined person, Chu Haoyu quickly put away all his emotions and said: "This king will escort Yin Zhanfei back to Beijing as soon as possible, this road should not be peaceful, and this matter will bother Wei Lao." ”

Hearing that Chu Haoyu wanted to escort Yin Zhanfei back to Beijing by himself, and then seeing that his expression was obviously decided, Wei Zhengyang finally nodded and said: "Although the prince can rest assured, the old man will definitely send him to the capital." ”

Nodding, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said: "The second elder has worked hard for an afternoon, and he will go down to rest for a while, in addition, some people will not be afraid of the identity of this king, and I hope that the second elder will put more effort into it." ”

Seeing Chu Haoyu let go, Mo Fan and Wei Zhengyang hugged their fists and retreated, and when the two left not long after, Xu Hong strode over. After kneeling down, Xu Hong opened his mouth and said: "Lord Wang, I have probably checked the humble position, the four great families of Sun, Chen, Qian, and Song have all taken action, but the four major sects of the rivers and lakes, Wuji Temple, Tianlong Temple and Tibetan Sword Villa have never come, only the Holy Sect has a master to come." ”

Hearing the word Sun, a light flashed in Chu Haoyu's eyes, and he asked in a deep voice, "Sun family?" ”

Xu Hong knew why Chu Haoyu was confused, and immediately replied: "I have been in Jiangnan Province for thirty years, I shouldn't be mistaken, Elder Sun Chan appeared on Dongting Lake, but I don't know if this is the Sun family's idea or his own." ”

After thinking for a moment, Chu Haoyu said slowly: "The Sun family has closed the mountain. ”

Xu Hong understood what Chu Haoyu meant, and also knew that he had talked too much, so he immediately diverted his words and said: "The treasures of heaven and earth, those who are virtuous can rely on them, and the prince Hongfu Qitian can get the Xuangui Pill." ”

This time, Xu Hong slapped the horse's leg, and Chu Haoyu said coldly: "In this, I'm afraid it's not the Xuangui Dan, but the life of the king." ”

Suddenly, Xu Hong showed a look of surprise, staring at Chu Haoyu with a shocked face, wanting to hear his explanation. Seeing that Xu Hong's expression did not seem to be fake, Chu Haoyu knew that he didn't know about it, and after a light sigh, he explained the matter roughly, and finally shook his head and said: "The conspiracy of the Heavenly Thorn Thief is to use the Xuangui Pill to blame this king and make this king the target of everyone, but once this king opens this ebony box, I am afraid that he will be happy to live and die without turning a blind eye." ”

Xu Hong never thought that it would be such an ending, and at the same time, he guessed the reason why Chu Haoyu told him everything, and immediately bowed: "Neglect of duty, and ask the prince to punish him." Without waiting for Chu Haoyu to speak, Xu Hong hurriedly said: "The lowly will summon the skillful craftsman to open the box, and in addition, the lowly will personally inspect Yin Zhanfei, the traitor, and take away all the poison in his body, and will definitely not let him commit suicide." ”

Nodding and shaking his head, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said: "Yin Zhanfei must be dealt with, and then escorted back to Beijing, he must ensure his safety, as for this box, stay here first." After a pause at this, Chu Haoyu continued: "There is news that Yin Zhanfei of Qianzhou Hall is a thief who is a thief in the sky, and he ordered the water masters of Guannei Dao, Hedong Dao, and Longyou Dao to exterminate the remnants of Qianzhou Hall. ”

What is virtue? Exterminating Qianzhoutang and exterminating the heavenly assassin is virtuous. Xu Hong understood what Chu Haoyu meant, and wanted Qianzhoutang to become the target of public criticism, and exposing Yin Zhanfei's identity could also dispel many people's greed, after all, the Xuangui Pill was too precious. Before Xu Hong could open his mouth, Chu Haoyu suddenly said again: "Xuangui Dan should not have left Dongting Lake, you personally investigate this matter, in addition, the idea is to find Yin Yunfan and use him to pry Yin Zhanfei's mouth open." ”

"Humble duty." After bowing down, Xu Hong took Yin Zhanfei and left, and in the huge lobby, only Chu Haoyu was left in a daze.

Just when Chu Haoyu was contemplating and pondering, suddenly the sound of the piano sounded, the faint sound of the piano was as soft as the wind, and the moon was as clean as the moon, especially the tenderness in it, which made people intoxicated and unwilling to wake up, and soon, Chu Haoyu was silent in the tenderness of the jade, forgetting the troubles of the world.

In a neighboring water manor on the shore of Dongting Lake, in the cold moonlight, you can vaguely see the rockery pavilion and small bridge flowing water, thinking that it is a rich and noble family. It is also true that He Baiyuan, the lord of the manor, is also a famous figure in Yueyang, but today, in front of a scribe in Tsing Yi, he seems to have seen a cat's mouse, and he can't wait to get into the ground.

The scribe in Tsing Yi was handsome but had a cold expression, and he was drinking himself from the teacup, as if he was the head of the house. After tasting for a moment, the scribe in Tsing Yi opened his mouth and said: "The fragrance is fresh and fresh, tender and smooth, and it is worthy of being the top Biluochun, and I am afraid that it will cost a hundred taels of silver to get it to the capital." ”

He Baiyuan couldn't guess the intentions of the scribe in Tsing Yi, but he knew that he was dissatisfied with him, and immediately said: "If Mr. likes it, the little one will honor Mr. every year." ”

Seeing that He Baiyuan understood what he meant and wanted to bribe himself, the Tsing Yi scribe became more and more unhappy in his heart, and his face turned a little colder, and said, "There is no news of Hall Master Yin yet?" ”

He Baiyuan already knew Yin Zhanfei's identity, and even guessed that his identity was not low, so he replied cautiously: "Mr. Huiyu, I got the news that Hall Master Yin has fallen into the hands of the Seventh Prince, Chu Haoyu, and the Seventh Prince is preparing to escort Hall Master Yin back to Beijing. ”

In this regard, the scribe in Tsing Yi was not surprised, and seeing that his expression was obviously decisive, he said slowly: "Escort to the capital, it is inevitable to have an interrogation, if you can't save him, give him a good time, and save him the pain of flesh and skin." Is there any news from Yin Yunfan? ”

This is another uninformed question, He Baiyuan complained bitterly in his heart, but he could only reply stubbornly: "Mr. Hui, the little one failed to get the news of Master Yin Shaotang, and the treasure of the Dragon King was nowhere to be found, as if it had disappeared out of thin air, as for the Wuhu Gang to get that batch of treasures, they were stopped by Yueyang* Water Master." Speaking of this, He Baiyuan seemed to know that the scribe in Tsing Yi was not satisfied with this answer, and hurriedly said: "By the way, the little one has received news that Wan Canghe sent his henchman Ma San to follow the young hall master, and it seems that he has a plan. ”

Seeing that He Baiyuan didn't know anything, even if he knew that he didn't know much about his low status, the scribe in Tsing Yi was still upset, waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go down." Prepare a batch of tea as soon as possible and transport it to the capital. ”

He Baiyuan was not a stupid person, on the contrary, he was very smart, and immediately understood the intention of the Tsing Yi scribe, and it was clear that he was transporting tea, but in fact he was covering the Tsing Yi scribe to return to Beijing. Not daring to hesitate, He Baiyuan immediately bowed down and said, "The little one understands, don't worry, sir, you can set off in a day." ”

Hearing He Baiyuan's answer, instead of agreeing, the scribe in Tsing Yi let out a cold snort, slapped the teacup on the stone table and looked quite displeased, and shouted: "If you want to cover it, you will set off in three days." ”

He Baiyuan immediately knew what mistake he had made, and bowed down and said, "Little stupid, I hope Mr. will forgive me." Three days, three days later. At the end of the words, He Baiyuan took a few steps back before turning to leave, and it was this moment of work that his head was covered with beads of sweat the size of soybeans.

When He Baiyuan left, a black shadow appeared silently, and said to the scribe in Qingyi: "Second Mr., everything is Dong San'er's gang, he is a secret agent of the Chu family. ”

Suddenly, the Tsing Yi scribe frowned slightly, and two rays of light burst out in his eyes, as if he was surprised and shocked, and there was an anger that could not be concealed. After a moment of silence, the expression of the scribe in Tsing Yi had eased, and he said, "No wonder Dong San will instigate Cui Yongbo to assassinate Chu Haoyu, it turned out to be to lure us into the bait?" The Dragon King's Treasure plus the Xuangui Pill, this bait, I'm afraid it's Chu Si's idea! Speaking of this, a cold light flashed in the eyes of the scribe in Tsing Yi, and said: "This dust must be disposed of, He Baiyuan still has some use, and it cannot be exposed." ”

The black shadow immediately replied: "The little one will go and solve the dust in person." After a slight pause at this, the Black Shadow Man continued: "In the evening, someone saw Chen Shumou and Yin Shaotang Master appear in Hundred Bird Continent, originally, they should have crossed the Baiyang River tonight to reach Mianshui. ”

The scribe in Tsing Yi walked in the dark all the year round, and instantly sensed the conspiracy, and opened his mouth to ask after a moment of silence: "You say, which side is Uncle Chen's conspiracy?" Without waiting for the black shadow man to answer, the scribe in Tsing Yi himself had already opened his mouth and said: "The Sun family has closed the mountain, and Sun Chan should have acted without authorization." There is an ancestor of the Chen family who is old, and it is possible that he wants to use the Xuangui Pill to continue his life, but the Chen family has no intention of the rivers and lakes, and he will not be able to plant a thirty-year-old chess piece in Qianzhou Hall. The Chen family is still like this, not to mention the Song family, a Qianzhou Hall, can't enter the eyes of the Song Dao Master at all, then, only the Qian family is left. ”

Speaking of this, there was a slight smile on the face of the scribe in Tsing Yi, and he said: "The old man heard that Qian Buwei was lying on the sickbed for a long time, and he thought it was true, and in order to get the Xuangui Pill, he did not hesitate to use the hole that had been hidden in the snow for twenty years. If it weren't for the Xuangui Dan's other great use, he would have been able to do business with money, and now, he could only see him off, and when this matter is over, you will rush to Huizhou to hide and wait for my news. ”

Nodding, the dark shadow man asked, "What about Hall Master Yin?" ”

The scribe in Tsing Yi shook his head and said, "You don't have to worry about it, get rid of the dust." When the black shadow man left, the scribe in Tsing Yi looked up at the bright moon in the sky and said, "Uncle Chen, I hope you don't disappoint the old man." ”
