Chapter 404: To Jiangnan

Ling Muyun and the others rushed out of the house, but saw that Gu Mozhi's figure had disappeared into the woods in the distance, leaving only the few people he brought with him to flee in panic.

Ben Xiang said hatefully: "This guy is running fast." is also a virtuous monk, but at the critical moment, he left his subordinates behind! ”

Ben Shen turned his head to look at Ben Yin: "Senior Brother Abbot, are we still chasing?" ”

Ben Yin waved his hand and said: "Forget it, just drive him away, and with his light skills, we may not be able to catch up." ”

"Senior Brother Abbot is right."

Everyone didn't say anything about the entourage of those people who fled in panic, and everyone present was a person with great status, and they didn't look at those people at all, so they naturally disdained to embarrass them.

Ling Muyun looked at the direction where Gu Mozhi's figure disappeared and shook his head gently, in fact, if he catches up at this time, it is nine out of ten to catch up with Gu Mozhi, after integrating the light skills of "Crane Xiang Nine Days", his light skills are almost the same, although Gu Mozhi's light skills are good, but compared to him, they are still a lot worse.

But what if you catch up? With his current strength, he has no hope of winning against Gu Mozhi alone, and at best he can barely protect himself, so does he catch up and ask for his own hardship?

Seeing that the followers of Gu Mozhi also fled into the forest, and then the sound of horses' hooves sounded, obviously they had escaped from Tianlong Temple, and Ling Muyun and the monks of Tianlong Temple returned to Muni Hall again.

Originally, although the main structure of Muni Hall was not damaged, the portal had been destroyed after all. It was not appropriate to stay any longer, but Master Kurong sat in Ku Rong and refused to leave, and everyone had to go back to the Muni Hall to speak.

The monks of Tianlong Temple, Emperor Baoding and others naturally thanked Ling Muyun, after all, if there was no Ling Muyun, the Duan clan of Dali would have made a big mistake today, Emperor Baoding is the monarch of Dali, and Duan Yu is the future prince of Dali, no matter who the two of them are taken away, it will be a heavy blow to the Duan clan of Dali.

After talking, Ling Muyun said goodbye to Emperor Baoding and others. Now Kumachi has retired. Duan Yu was also unharmed, and the matter of Dali could be regarded as having an end, Ling Muyun was ready to go to the Central Plains for a walk, after all, he still had a task to do. Naturally, there is something to do somewhere. Otherwise, how could he make a name for himself in the rivers and lakes?

Because he was worried that Duan Yu's evil poison had not been cleared. Emperor Baoding and Duan Yu decided to stay in Tianlong Temple for a few more days, and originally wanted to leave Ling Muyun for a while and entertain them well. However, when he heard that Ling Muyun still had something to do in the Central Plains, he no longer forced him to stay, and left Ling Muyun to spend his lunch in Tianlong Temple, so they sent Ling Muyun out of Tianlong Temple to say goodbye to him.

Ling Muyun left the Tianlong Temple, first returned to the south of the Dali town to the south of the palace to the Dao Baifeng, who was still worried about the safety of his son, because it was late, so he rested in the Zhennan Wangfu in the holding of the knife Baifeng, and early the next morning, he rode the mount arranged for him by the palace, left Dali City and went north, and went straight to the south of the Yangtze River.

The purpose of Ling Muyun's trip is Wuxi, because if he remembers correctly, in the near future, there will be a major event that will shake the rivers and lakes in the apricot forest outside Wuxi, if he can intervene in this matter, he will definitely make a name for himself in the shortest possible time!

……

Ling Muyun rode north, traveled for several days, went out of the border of Dali, and galloped northeast. Although his destination this time is Wuxi, but it is to go to Gusu first, the so-called heaven, Suzhou and Hangzhou, Gusu is famous for its beautiful scenery, and there is a smiling "fairy sister" living in the middle, this time it is not easy to come to the Tianlong world for a trip, if you can't see the face, isn't it a pity?

Moreover, Wuxi and Suzhou are next to each other, even if he goes to Suzhou for a few days first, it is not too late to go to Wuxi.

Ling Muyun traveled all the way, and in less than half a month, he had rushed to the outside of Suzhou.

At that time, it was the weather of early spring and March, the apricot blossoms were sandwiched, the green willows were hanging down the lake, and the warm spring breeze was blowing on the body, which was really drunk. Ling Muyun saw that the scenery was pleasant, so he immediately believed in the horse and walked slowly, enjoying the wind and scenery all the way, so he was happy and happy.

I inquired about seven or eight people in a row, and only the last old man knew about this Mantuo Villa, and the old man said: "I heard that there is indeed such a Zhuangzi in the Taihu Lake outside Suzhou City, and the village is full of camellias, which is called Mantuo Villa." But that village is inhabited by a group of dominatriks, Childe, what are you doing in that place? ”

Seeing that someone finally knew where Mantuo Villa went, Ling Muyun suddenly perked up and said, "This old man, I have important things to do when I go to Mantuo Villa, I wonder if my old man can show me a clear way?" ”

The old man shook his head: "What Mantuo Villa is in the depths of Taihu Lake, ordinary people don't know at all, and the old man has been fishing in Taihu Lake for many years before he knows that there is such a Zhuangzi." It's just that there is a group of dominatrix who live in it, and the fishermen have come to their village to rest in the past, but they have never come back, I heard that the group of dominatrix was buried under the camellia to make flower fertilizer, who would dare to go? Childe, you'd better find someone else. ”

As he spoke, the old man hurriedly walked away as if he were hiding from a plague god, no matter how Ling Muyun screamed, the old man refused to stop. Seeing this, Ling Muyun couldn't help but shake his head secretly, although he could easily stop the old man, but people didn't want to go, could he still hold a knife around his neck and force others to lead him? That's not his style either.

However, the old man's words pointed him in the direction, it seems that he is a native of Suzhou, and he generally does not know the path of Mantuo Villa, and if he wants to find Mantuo Villa, he has to ask those local fishermen who fish.

Thinking of this, Ling Muyun no longer went to Suzhou City, turned around the horse's head, and prepared to go down the official road to the lake, ready to find a brave fisherman to lead the way for him.

However, before Ling Muyun got off the official road, he heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and saw two horses galloping from behind.

The man who rode with him was also an old man, tall and burly. It's just that he looks a year or twenty younger than the old beggar, and he has the same beard under his chin, and he is dressed in a cocooned silk robe, and the clothes are very luxurious, and he looks like a rich man.

Ling Muyun's eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the two of them, the combination of these two people is really too strange, a seventy-eighty old man named Huazi riding a horse is strange enough, because at the beginning of the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, it lost the place to raise horses such as the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, and the Great Song Dynasty has always been relatively short of horses, so horses in the Great Song Dynasty are not cheap. It is difficult for ordinary people to afford it. Not to mention an old beggar.

This old beggar not only dismounted his crotch and was a good horse, but also rode side by side with an old man dressed as a rich man, and all kinds of incongruities, how could it not make people wonder and pay attention?

Originally, Ling Muyun was a little curious in his heart. But he didn't take it too seriously. After all, there are many strange people and strange things on the rivers and lakes. Although the pairing of the two is a little strange, it is not a big deal.

However, the few words that floated from afar between the two of them completely aroused Ling Muyun's interest. I only heard the old man dressed as a member of the rich family say: "Brother Xu, have you informed your brother about this matter?" ”

The old beggar said, "Only a very small number of people in the gang know about this. As you know, that guy has a lot of prestige in the gang, and I have to be careful not to leak the news and reach his ears and make him prepared in advance, which will be difficult to deal with. ”

"Brother Xu, you don't have to be too nervous, the brothers of your gang are all loyal, brave and benevolent men, and they will not distinguish between right and wrong, and when Mrs. Ma, Tan Gong, Tan Po, Master Zhiguang and others have arrived, expose his true face in front of the brothers of your gang, is he a Hulu alien, can he really turn his hands into clouds and rain in our Central Plains martial arts?"

"Someone, let's talk about it later......"

Originally, the two of them were cautious, and they didn't say anything when they galloped to Ling Muyun's approach, but they didn't expect that Ling Muyun's skills were profound and his ear power was amazing, and the words they said when they were far away before were all in Ling Muyun's ears.

"Brother Xu, Mrs. Ma, Tan Gong Tan Po, Hulu ......"

Ling Muyun looked at the backs of the two people who were speeding in front of him, his eyes were thoughtful, the amount of information revealed from the words of these two people was too great, although Ling Muyun didn't know any of these people mentioned in the words of the two, he had heard of them, and they all happened to be related to the incident he wanted to participate in when he came to Jiangnan this time.

Thinking of this, Ling Muyun was not busy looking for someone to lead the way to Mantuo Villa, but rode his horse to follow the two people who were about to gallop away.

Although the mounts of the two in front of them had good foot strength, Ling Muyun's horses were given by the Zhennan Palace, and they were also rare horses, so it was not difficult to follow. Ling Muyun stayed far behind the two horsemen, and followed the two of them all the way into Suzhou City.

From a distance, I saw the two of them dismount at an inn with a small faΓ§ade, and greeted five big men from the inn, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and their appearances were very similar, the oldest one was about forty years old, and the youngest was in his twenties, and he seemed to be a brother of the same mother. Two of the big men led the horses of the two old men, handed them to the innkeeper to lead them to the backyard to feed them, and then hugged the two old men into the inn.

Seeing this, Ling Muyun also rode over, got off the horse in front of the inn called Ping'an Inn, handed over the horse to the shopkeeper who greeted him, and led him to the backyard to feed him, and walked into the inn by himself.

Who would have thought that as soon as Ling Muyun walked into the inn with one foot, he saw two big men striding side by side, as if a wall was crashing towards Ling Muyun, and these two Ling Muyun had also seen it, it was two of the five big men who greeted the two old men outside the inn before.

It turned out that the old beggar and the old man were both long-time veterans, and after meeting Ling Muyun on the road, they found that Ling Muyun had been following behind the two of them, which aroused the suspicion of the two. Seeing that Ling Muyun had also followed him to the inn, he instructed these two big men to test it and see what kind of character Ling Muyun was, so as to determine whether Ling Muyun happened to be on the same road or deliberately followed.

Ling Muyun's mind was racing, and he knew the other party's intentions in an instant, but he didn't avoid it at all, and went straight to the two of them. These two men came prepared, and when they saw this scene, they immediately put their internal strength on their chests, and collided with Ling Muyun side by side.

However, while hitting people, both of them also have spare strength, so that if the other party does not know martial arts or is not good at martial arts, they can regain their strength in time, so as not to accidentally injure people's lives.

It must be known that the two of them have also become famous masters in the rivers and lakes. And this collision is a change in the family martial arts, that is, ordinary high-rollers in the rivers and lakes have to be seriously injured and vomit blood when they are hit with all their strength, if they are ordinary people who do not know martial arts, it is normal to die directly.

However, what happened next surprised the two men, and after colliding with Ling Muyun, they only felt as if they had hit a pile of cotton, empty and unfocused. The two of them were shocked and hurriedly wanted to sit back, but at this moment, they felt a trace of stickiness coming from each other's bodies. The two of them suddenly couldn't stabilize their bodies anymore. "Plop" and "plop" both rushed to the ground.

"Ah, what are you doing here? Quick, hurry up, we don't know each other. I can't afford to be so gifted by you. Ling Muyun pretended to be startled. Take two steps back. Shouted.

attracted the eyes of everyone in the room to look at Ling Muyun together. The three big men sitting at a table stood up and were about to run to the door, but before the three of them could take a step. I heard an old voice say in a deep voice: "Sit down for me!" ”

Ling Muyun followed the sound, but saw that it was the old man who was dressed as a rich family member, and the old beggar was sitting next to him, obviously these two were waiting over there to see his reaction methods, but they didn't know if his reaction methods satisfied the other party this time? He immediately smiled and nodded to the other party.

The eyes of the old man in the silk robe narrowed slightly, and a gleam flashed in his eyes, as did the white-bearded old beggar next to him, and the two couldn't help but glance at each other, and a solemn look flashed in their eyes.

Both of them are great experts in martial arts, and their eyesight is extraordinary, and they both see the mysteries. Ling Muyun seemed to be just dodging backwards a little, but in fact, he showed a very clever kung fu of borrowing strength, which made the two big men lose their center of gravity and fall to the ground.

Otherwise, with the kung fu that those two big men have practiced for many years, even if there are three or five big men behind them, they can't push them down, how can they easily lie down just because they hit a miss? Could it be that all these years of kung fu have been practiced on dogs?

The two men got up from the ground with red faces, and then looked at Ling Muyun's eyes full of anger, they were not fools, how could they not understand that they were tricked by Ling Muyun?

Ling Muyun said with a smile: "Two brothers, you didn't fall in pain, did you?" Look at it, this meeting is so polite, how embarrassing it is for me! ”

"You ......" The eyes of the two big men were red, not so shameless, they fell on a big horse and didn't say anything, but also made mocking words, which is unbearable, at the moment they clenched their fists, and they were about to hit Ling Muyun.

A hint of ridicule flashed in Ling Muyun's eyes, just in the moment of fighting, he had already figured out the skills of these two people, that is, he was just approaching the level of acquired Dacheng, not to mention him with this level of martial arts, even if the cheap apprentice South China Sea Crocodile God he received could be solved by dividing it by two.

"Stop, isn't it enough to be ugly? Get back to me! At this moment, I suddenly heard an angry shout, but it was the old man in the silk robe who spoke.

"Yes, Dad."

The figures of the two men who were about to pounce on them suddenly froze, and the arms that had been raised were put down weakly, turned their heads in agreement, and then glared at Ling Muyun fiercely, and walked to the table over there and sat down dejectedly.

"Old fellow, his kung fu is not very good, but his eyesight is good."

Ling Muyun laughed secretly in his heart, and stepped into the house, that is, the old man in the silk robe stopped in time, otherwise when those two men really attacked him, Ling Muyun would have to let them suffer a bad loss.

After suffering a loss at Ling Muyun's hands, and also tried some of Ling Muyun's methods, the old man in the silk robe and the old beggar no longer stayed in the lobby, took a deep look at Ling Muyun, and immediately led the five big men who seemed to be a fellow milk to go upstairs and return to the guest room.

Ling Muyun paid attention to the location of the guest room where several people went, and then went to the counter to open a room close to the residence of several people, and then entered his guest room to rest under the guidance of the inn guy.

……

When night falls, thousands of homes are lit up. A figure suddenly flipped out of the back window of the Ping An Inn, his body flipped in the air, his feet were on the windowsill a little, and his figure rose into the air like a big bird, and fluttered on the roof of the inn. Then he quietly identified the direction, walked more than a dozen steps to the east, and then leaned down on the roof, quietly removed a piece of roof tiles, and looked down along the gap.

I saw that there were two old men sitting opposite each other drinking tea under the lamp in the room, one with a white beard and a hundred knots in quail clothes, and the other wrapped in brocade silk with a ruddy face, which were the two old men who were just followed by Ling Muyun during the day. And this person who steals tiles and peeps on the roof at night, who else can there be besides our eldest son Ling?

At this time, I heard the old beggar in the house say: "Brother Shan, you said that the kid who followed us during the day won't have anything to do with Qiao Feng's guy, right?" ”

The old man surnamed Shan in a brocade robe groaned for a while, and said, "It's really hard to say, Qiao Feng's guy has a lot of friends and friends, who knows if that kid is his henchman?" ”

Ling Muyun, who was lying on the roof, had a gleam in his eyes, just listening to the two words of the two people in the house, he had already confirmed the identities of the two, as he had guessed before, this old beggar surnamed Xu was the highest-ranking Elder Xu in the beggar gang, and this old man with a single surname should be Shan Zheng, the "iron-faced judge" of Shandong Taishan.
