Chapter 45: The Lion and the Tiger
Teaming up?!
Wang Yan didn't expect Xia He to find him because of this, so he couldn't help but change his gaze and groaned, and Xia He said: "Brother Wang, do you know what is the most business around Tianmaji?" ā
"Qinglou and gambling house?"
Xia He shook his head and said, "It's a robbery!" To tell the truth, Xia He came to the South River Valley for more than a month, and he also robbed the road a few times, with successes and misses, but fortunately, he was lucky to save his life and gained something.

Hearing this, Wang Yan's face became a little strange, and he said, "Brother Xia doesn't want to invite Wang Yan to do a robbery together?" ā
"I don't know the specific origin of Brother Wang, and I don't know if Brother Wang looks down on strongman behavior, but for a person like Xia He, who has no money, no power and no chance against the sky, if you want to become stronger, you have to seize every opportunity, after all, time is running out.
The reason why I invited Brother Wang is that I feel that I have the same temperament as Brother Wang, and I also value Brother Wang's skills. Second, Xia He also has a sense of proportion in his heart, and the ordinary robbery will not bother Brother Wang, but it is naturally a big deal to find Brother Wang to join forces. ā
Speaking of this, Xia He's body couldn't help but lean forward for two points, and his voice was lowered: "Brother Wang, do you know why Xia He is a guard in the Qinglou?" ā
"Stepping on points? Gathering intelligence? ā
Xia He smiled and said, "Almost." Xiahe's goal this time has been determined, is a one-legged thief who is slightly famous in the north of the South River Valley, this person's name is 'Wei Xiaofeng', more than half a year ago just broke through to the gestation period, but this person is not at ease, and his cultivation has not yet stabilized, so he came out to do a few cases in a row, robbed nearly a thousand gold and silver, and some rare things, and this person is lustful as life, not only robbing wealth but also robbing sex, the third lady of Hengshan City Shujian Village was harmed by this person.
For this reason, the old owner of Shujian Village issued a bonus and asked for Wei Xiaofeng's head with three hundred taels of gold, so in the past two months, Wei Xiaofeng has been hiding and disappearing like the world, but this person is reincarnated, and he is especially good at Qingqi people, and he is restless in his bones, so there is news that he sneaked into Tianma Market in disguise a few days ago, just to go to the Spring Festival Building tonight to open a lotus for the 'Ying Yu girl'.
There are a lot of people staring at Wei Xiaofeng, not to mention other aspects, there are more than ten people on Xiahe's side alone, all of them are quite famous among the players on the Tianma set, and their strength is not under Gao Li, as long as they find this trace of Wei Xiaofeng, they will besiege it when the time comes, it can be said that it is foolproof. ā
Wang Yan's brows furrowed slightly, and he said with some puzzlement: "Since the arrangement is foolproof, why did Brother Xia come to invite me?" ā
"Hahaha!"
Xia He laughed loudly, and then said, "Brother Wang, do you know what kind of place this South River Valley is?" This is a place with no rules, pure people eat people, in such a place, the strong eat everything, and the weak only have the piping edge, even though Wei Xiaofeng is worth a lot of money, but how many of the more than ten people finally get the profits? The most important thing is who has the final say in the power of domination? ā
"What does Brother Xia mean?"
Xia He's eyes flashed, and he said fiercely: "Kill Wei Xiaofeng first, and then you and I will join forces to kill the others, and then the spoils will be selected by Brother Wang first!" ā
Black eats black!
Wang Yan finally understood Xia He's intention to find himself, he couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly and looked at Xia He carefully, in his eyes, Xia He was now a skinny hungry tiger, rampage all the way forward, but whenever the prey he saw was desperate, he would tear off the largest piece, such a person could be unscrupulous in order to become stronger, can he really believe his words?
But Xia He has a saying that is right, time is not waiting! Wang Yan's descent from the mountain this time was purely a coincidence, but after all, there was a time limit, only three years, and at that time, no matter whether the task given by Elder Chen was completed or not, he must return to the mountain gate, otherwise it would be regarded as a betrayal and escape. When he thought of the methods of Proud Sword Villa to treat traitors, even with Wang Yan's current temperament, he was a little chilled, and for Wang Yan, he never thought of betraying Proud Sword Villa.
That being the case, Wang Yan will return to the mountains after more than two years, presumably by that time the chaos of the Proud Sword Villa has ended, and it is extremely difficult to travel down the mountain again, after all, the inner disciples who can forge the sword heart and break through the sea of sword heart and blood are only one out of ten, even many true disciples do not have this ability.
And once he returns to the mountain gate, and the chaos in Aojian Villa has ended, Wang Yan will no longer have a channel to obtain experience points, and he can only cultivate step by step at that time, even if he can use the cold jade ice wall, how many years will it take to cultivate to the realm like the fourth lady, and what will happen to this?
"Time is running out!"
Wang Yan silently recited these words in his heart, and then his eyes gradually became firm, he knew that the two years of traveling in the rivers and lakes would be his best and fastest opportunity to enhance his strength, he must not just let the time go in vain, he had no way before, maybe this time joining forces with Xia He is an opportunity.
Wang Yan thought about it for a long time, and really took all aspects into consideration, constantly weighing all kinds of powerful relationships. Xia He was waiting silently, but seeing that Wang Yan was speechless for a long time, he couldn't help but say, "Could it be that Brother Wang still has any concerns?" Are you afraid that Xia He will not pay attention to the rules when the time comes, and he will go back on his word and attack Brother Wang? ā
Xia He's words were so straightforward, Wang Yan didn't answer, just raised his head and looked directly at Xia He, Xia He smiled: "I think Brother Wang doesn't have to worry about this, just with the sword you just had, Xia He has self-knowledge." However, if Brother Wang feels that his hands are hard enough, when the time comes, he wants to eat all the sizes and win everything, even if Xia He dies under Brother Wang's sword, he will never complain, he only blames himself for seeing the wrong person. ā
Xia He's words were honest enough, Wang Yan also had a lot of concerns, waved his hand and said: "Brother Xia said that it was funny, the reason why Wang Yan pondered for a long time is because this matter is quite big, and it is just necessary to carefully consider the powerful relationship and weigh the pros and cons." As for Brother Xia, Wang Yan can only say that when he first met that day, Wang Yan was holding a sincere heart to intersect, and it has not changed until now, otherwise he would not drink with Brother Xia again today. ā
"Haha, well said! Just by virtue of high and such yin and private goods, how can I have fellowship with you and me. In this case, Brother Wang has made up his mind with Xia He? ā
"It's decided!"
"!"
The two of them pushed the cup and drank a few large bowls of wine, during which Xia He whispered to Wang Yan the details of the action, time, place, etc., and after three rounds of drinking, Xia He was slightly drunk, Wang Yan stopped, and he didn't dare to get drunk with him.
It's just that Wang Yan and Xia He didn't notice that as soon as the two of them left the store, the short and stout man sitting in the north corner of the store who made Wang Yan a little familiar turned his head and quietly looked at his back. In addition, another pair of eyes in this store also secretly focused on the backs of Wang Yan and Xia He.
"It's been a lot of delay."
Standing at the entrance of Tianma Town, Wang Yan raised his eyes and looked at the sunset that was about to fall into the mountain, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly and sigh. After never daring to get drunk, Xia He had other important things to do and left first, and Wang Yan pulled the fifth rhyme all the way out of the Tianma set, taking advantage of the fact that there was still some time before the night, Wang Yan thought about sending the fifth rhyme back first.
"Brother Wang."
Fifth Yun called softly, and when Wang Yan turned her head to look at her, the woman smiled and said: "If you have something to do, just go by yourself, I said before, I am not afraid of death, and if I die, I just save the footsteps to go back." ā
"Nope."
Wang Yan refused without thinking about it, although dying once was really nothing to the fifth rhyme, but Wang Yan couldn't pass the level in his heart, he was an NPC after all, not a player, and he couldn't understand the player's casualness towards death.
However, Fifth Yun seemed to have an idea, and murmured: "It's okay, Brother Wang, as long as you remember to come back early after finishing your business, the children in the mountains are waiting for you..."
Fifth Yun paused when she said this, and then said with a slight blush: "I'm also waiting for you." ā
Belch?
Wang Yan was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses and looked at the fifth rhyme, the woman already had a short sword in her heart, and blood continued to seep out from the corner of her mouth. Wang Yan was shocked when he saw this, and hugged the fifth rhyme, but he didn't know what to say, but the fifth rhyme smiled sweetly and said: "Brother Wang, I still have some time, let's talk in this sunset, okay?" ā
Wang Yan gritted his teeth and nodded, and returned to the town with the fifth rhyme, standing under an eave, silently watching the sunset.
Fifth Yun looked at Wang Yan's appearance, smiled even sweeter, and gasped: "Looking at Brother Wang's uncomfortable appearance, I suddenly feel so happy." ā
Uncomfortable?!
Wang Yan didn't know how to describe exactly how he felt now, it was not anger, it was not resentment, it was just a kind of powerlessness and helplessness, but there was something else mixed in it, Wang Yan couldn't tell it clearly, if this was uncomfortable, he did feel like this for the first time. But he didn't understand why his discomfort made Fifth Yun feel happy.
Wang Yan's cognition is limited after all, he has a good impression of the fifth rhyme, he is close to the fifth rhyme, and he likes to play with the fifth rhyme from time to time, taking advantage of a little bit or something, but that's it, no matter how deep things he does, he can't think of them, and he can't break them, at least temporarily.
Looking at Wang Yan's confused face, Fifth Yun's eyes flickered, and he said: "Brother Wang, in fact, I know that you and I are different existences, you don't have to deny it, and you don't have to be wary of me, if you feel awkward, just treat it as if I don't know anything, are we still as good as before, you teach the children martial arts, I teach the children to read, and of course I have to go hunting to reward your five internal organs temple." ā
Wang Yan smiled embarrassedly, and immediately said, "My injuries are healed now, and I will go hunting in the future." ā
Fifth Yun shook his head and said, "I'm willing to do it, don't rob me." ā
Saying that, Fifth Rhyme smiled, but there was more blood oozing out of the mouth that affected the injury, but Fifth Rhyme smiled even more happily and asked, "Brother Wang, why don't you ask me how I saw through your identity?" ā
"You are different from Xia He, he goes straight, but you are different, I don't know why, anyway, I think if I ask, something will be missing between us."
"It's trust. You're right, I'll be sad if you ask, and I think you don't trust me, but you don't ask me and I'm going to tell you. ā
Wang Yan only felt that the idea of the fifth rhyme was weird, and he couldn't guess it, but he felt that he liked to talk to the fifth rhyme like this, and between his thoughts, he couldn't help but say: "Is it because of the change in Ming Zhengtang?" ā
"That just made me more sure. In fact, when I was in Shanxia Village, I had doubts, I didn't understand why Brother Wang came to listen to my classes in the morning and evening, at first I thought you had other intentions, but after a long time, I found that you listened very carefully every time.
You may not know that the things I tell children are very simple, and normal adults in our place understand them, and no one wants to listen to them, let alone insist on them for dozens of days in the morning and evening. ā
Listening to the words of the fifth rhyme, Wang Yan's heart couldn't help but move, and said, "Where are you?" Do you mean your world, and is the world I live in really a playground that you have created there? ā
Wang Yan's breathing couldn't help but become short, although he had just experienced a catastrophe, but now that Fifth Yun frankly saw through his identity and was willing to tell him a lot of things, Wang Yan only felt that the truth was in front of him.
It's just that Fifth Yun shook his head and said: "Brother Wang, although I don't understand Granny Long's words, I think you still have to keep them in mind, there are some things I think even if you tell you now, you may not be able to understand them." So, if you want to know more in the future, you can come to me after practicing martial arts every day, and I will tell you more knowledge that is more suitable for you.
When you slowly digest and understand what I said, and have a specific understanding of the world and us, maybe you will be able to easily explore the truth you want in the future, okay? ā
Wang Yan nodded, but suddenly smiled and said, "Is this also another kind of cultivation?" ā
"Giggles, you're so smart."
The fifth rhyme's laughter like a silver bell seemed to still echo in his ears, but the body in Wang Yan's arms had become cold, but Wang Yan didn't move, so he held the fifth rhyme until the sun went down and the night fell, and when the fifth rhyme's body disappeared with stars, he straightened up and walked towards the place agreed with Xiahe.
This night is destined to be bloody!
