Chapter 471: Branches

The dart masters couldn't say why, in that case, it was in the water, the line of sight was blocked, in fact, it was not easy to distinguish between friend and foe, where would anyone notice Luo Han's small movements?

"Ma Xun, I didn't expect that your water nature is not bad, and you can fight with water thieves in the water without falling behind." Lu Zhongxing saw Luo Han who was covered in water, and praised him casually.

Luo Han, who was wearing a poker face mask, said calmly: "There are also rivers in Liangzhou. ”

Lu Zhongxing didn't bother with this, and said to everyone: "These water thieves are a little inexplicable. Since the dissolution of the Great River League, Yangzhou has not had this kind of water thieves who dare to kill people in broad daylight for a long time, especially since we are still Jingzhou's dart game, which is somewhat water-based. ”

Luo Han calmly threw out a sign, which he touched from the opponent when he was entangled. has been with the "four-handed thousand-faced thief" for several days, and Luo Han has no reason not to learn two tricks from him, maybe it will come in handy at a critical time.

Lu Zhongxing picked up the sign, and his face changed greatly: "This ...... This...... This is...... Heavenly Demon Sect. ”

"I took it from my opponent. There has been such a thing in Liangzhou before. ”

Lu Zhongxing's hands trembled a little, if these water thieves were from the Heavenly Demon Sect, then they would be in trouble if they were eyeing their own goods.

"Don't worry, these people don't dare to have too many entanglements with the Heavenly Demon Sect, there are many people in the official mansion who don't like the Heavenly Demon Sect, but there is no evidence that they have harmed ordinary people, so they can't attack them."

This is true, others don't say it, the current sailor general Gan Long had to take refuge in the imperial court because he was threatened by the Heavenly Demon Sect. There are still many martial arts people, because the enemy family is too powerful to contend with, they can only enter the official mansion, and most of them have offended the Heavenly Demon Sect, the number one evil sect. However, even if they are officials, they must also abide by the rules, and if the Heavenly Demon Sect does not cross the line, they will have no reason to deal with the Heavenly Demon Sect.

"I can only comfort myself like this." Lu Zhongxing sighed and said, "Go rowing for two people, let's dock as soon as possible, it will be much safer to go on the official road." Damn, why can't the government protect us businessmen? We are the people who can do nothing and never do anything. ”

Luo Han was guarding the stern of the ship with a few dart masters, but it was fine. Several familiar dart masters were talking about the battle that had just happened, and Luo Han didn't take the initiative to talk to him because of the character he played, and he didn't bother to speak, sitting on the side of the boat thinking about things.

Although these water thieves are skilled in water, they obviously lack cooperation, and it looks like they have just been entangled together. Moreover, Lu Zhongxing, as a dart head, also inquired about the situation on the river, and there have been no water robberies in this vicinity recently. The ruthless practice of these water thieves to kill chickens and take eggs is obviously to obtain the most benefits in the short term.

It seems that the entrance of the Heavenly Demon Church near Jiangyin County has been very short of money recently, perhaps not only Jiangyin County, but also the entire Yangzhou and even Jingzhou, and the entrance of the Heavenly Demon Church on both sides of the river is very poor. It's no wonder that the money can't be broken when walking the rivers and lakes, the Heavenly Demon Sect members have been busy looking for Luo Han for nearly a month, spending a lot, but they don't have time to make money, even if the wealthy high-level people are concerned, those low-level Heavenly Demon Sect members are only afraid that they will already be in trouble.

This is good news, making a living by windfall is not a long-term solution after all, and after a long time, the entrance of the Heavenly Demon Church will definitely be forced to allocate a large number of people to maintain the industry, and the search of Luo Han will not be so strict.

After the dart team crossed the river, they were safe and sound, and they arrived at Jiangyin County in one day. After handing over the goods and receiving the final payment, Lu Zhongxing sent down the remuneration of the dart masters, and then disbanded on the spot, went to relax, and returned to Changping Dart Bureau three days later.

Luo Han didn't rush to resign to Lu Zhongxing, nor did he follow everyone to eat, drink and have fun, and the dart masters were also used to Luo Han's taciturn and unsociable performance, so they didn't care.

When the dart masters were gone, Luo Han went out unhurriedly and wandered around the intersections of Jiangyin County. It didn't take long for Luo Han to confirm ten Heavenly Demon Sect members. These guys are distributed around these intersections to keep watch, but most of them are unprofessional and can be easily spotted.

"These guys are really dedicated, it seems that it is not rational to inquire about the news of the Lu family now. I'll have to think about it again. The most important thing is not to let the Heavenly Demon Sect know that I am here, otherwise they will probably be the first to get there under the full investigation of their efforts. "When Gan Long first met Lu Wangxing's descendants, they were in Jiangyin County, but they didn't know where they lived in Jiangyin County, and if they didn't use some means, it would be really difficult to find out.

Back at the inn, Luo Han wrote a letter and stuffed it into Lu Zhongxing's room, and then left Jiangyin County.

That night, the Heavenly Demon Sect members in the county town hundreds of miles away from Jiangyin County learned through the local gang that someone was asking around about the address of the family surnamed Lu. Soon, the same news came from the surrounding counties. What's even worse is that there are rumors in various places, saying that there was no "Nine Sons and Mothers Needle" in the treasure at the beginning, and the real "Nine Sons and Mothers Needle" has been in the hands of the Lu family because it needs to be maintained frequently, and the people who need to hold the token ask the Lu family for it. In order to get the "Nine Sons and Mothers", the Demon Sect has been searching for the Lu family for a long time. This made the envoy who ruled the Yangzhou Heavenly Demon Sect at a loss, it was obvious that the other party was trying to muddy the water, which was the same as the treasure of Luoyan Mountain, and anyone who found out that the Demon Sect was moving frequently on both sides of the river would believe it.

And now the most important question is, where is the real address of the Lu family? Where, exactly, should most of the forces be invested? Once he chooses the wrong one, Luo Han may take advantage of the situation.

When the envoy of the Heavenly Demon Sect was struggling, Luo Han quietly returned to Jiangyin County by himself.

The next day, the Yangzhou Heavenly Demon Sect gathered to those counties where the news came out, and at the same time, ambitious martial arts people in Yangzhou also went to these places, wanting to take a fire from the hands of the Demon Sect.

And what about Luo Han? After another day, after confirming that most of the Heavenly Demon Sect members in Jiangyin County had been evacuated, Luo Han appeared in a restaurant, and after eating and drinking, he summoned the shopkeeper and asked, "Shopkeeper, what about my companions?" ”

The shopkeeper knows Luo Han's face, knows what kind of dart master he is in Changping Dart Bureau, and came to the restaurant for dinner a few days ago, after all, this poker face is still very distinctive. So he smiled and said, "I listened to them talk last night, and I should have set off for home today." Why didn't you go with them, officer? ”

Luo Han sighed and said: "I originally came to join my relatives, but when I got here, I found that the original address was no longer right, and I couldn't find anyone." ”

The shopkeeper smiled: "People like guest officers, the relatives who want to defect should not be small people, you might as well talk about it, maybe I know where they are now?" ”

That's what Luo Han meant, nodded and said: "My surname is Ma, my single name is a Xun character, and the relative I want to defect to is my distant cousin, his name is Ma Ruhong, I remember that he is in the weapons business." ”

The shopkeeper thought for a while, and his eyes lit up: "You can't be talking about the horse shopkeeper of Ruijin Iron Ware Company, right?" I remember that he was indeed called Ma Ru or something, but because everyone called him Ma Shopkeeper and Ma Blacksmith, his real name was not impressive. ”

Luo Han's poker face showed a hint of joy: "It should be uncle, please tell the shopkeeper where he is." ”

"He's in the west of the city, and you can see it when you walk straight down the street, and it's a big shop."

"Thank you, shopkeeper." Luo Han left some broken silver as a reward and headed straight for his destination.

That's right, the descendants of the Lu family are not surnamed Lu, in order not to be troubled by Lu Wangxing's fame, they have long changed their surname to Ma, and live in seclusion here to make a living by striking iron and selling weapons. Otherwise, how dare Luo Han let the Heavenly Demon Sect investigate for nearly a month? In a month, even if you check the household registration, you can check the people surnamed Lu.

The reason why Luo Han wanted to make a noise in other counties was that he was worried that the Heavenly Demon Sect would guess that the Lu family might change their surnames after an investigation, and they would even pay attention to the people who inquired about other people, so he had to mobilize the forces of the Heavenly Demon Sect first. After the manpower was transferred, the investigation efforts of the Heavenly Demon Sect had to be reduced, and Luo Han did follow the dart team to Jiangyin County for the purpose of finding relatives, which not only the fellow dart master can prove, but Luo Han also intentionally or unintentionally heard the innkeeper who was staying at the time, and wanted to come to the Heavenly Demon Sect to find out these news, and his suspicion of Luo Han would be reduced a lot.

Chengxi Ruijin Iron Shop is the largest iron shop in Jiangyin County, not only selling all kinds of elite equipment and weapons, but also selling all kinds of agricultural equipment and household tools, the whole store occupies more than ten meters of the street, you can see it from afar.

Luo Han walked into the Ruijin Iron Weapons Store, and a young man immediately came up with a smile and asked, "Does the guest officer want to choose weapons or buy tools?" Our store has all kinds of equipment, outstanding quality and reasonable price, absolutely satisfying you. ”

Luo Han didn't talk nonsense, threw out a piece of broken silver and said, "I want to see the boss." ”

The young man took the silver and smiled, for a small worker like him, this can be worth a month or two of wages, there are other small workers in the store, the young man is secretly glad that he was the first to come up, and said respectfully: "Wait a minute, the little one will go to the boss." ”

Luo Han looked around the store and found that the boy didn't brag, he really had everything. Seven or eight small workers are scattered all over the place to introduce their products to the guests. It looks like the store has a bit of a futuristic supermarket feel.

Not long after, the young man led a middle-aged man with his upper body showing large muscles to come out, thinking that it was the boss Ma Ruhong.

Luo Han took a step forward and arched his hand: "Presumably you are Uncle Ma Ruhong." ”

Ma Ruhong was stunned, why did this person call him uncle as soon as they met? However, in terms of age, he really deserves this title, so he said: "I am Ma Ruhong, who are you?" What are you looking for me? ”

Luo Han looked left and right and said, "Senior Ma Xun is specially here to find you. It's not convenient to talk here, can you go inside and talk? ”

"Ma Xun?" Ma Ruhong muttered, a little strange, but there are many people who are looking for themselves to build unique weapons, and they don't want outsiders to know, so they don't care, and make a gesture of please.

Luo Han followed Ma Ruhong to the back of the shop, and found that this was the place where the iron was struck, and the five apprentice-like people were concentrating on their work.

Ma Ruhong didn't stop, walked to a door next to him, pushed the door and entered, it was Ma Ruhong's special blacksmithing room.

"Let's talk about anything here."

Luo Han's poker face laughed weirdly, and he reached out to touch his ear and said, "Actually, I didn't come to build it, but there is something I don't know how to use, so I came to ask you." ”

Ma Ruhong's face became more and more solemn as Luo Han's mask was torn off little by little, this face he had seen, since the treasure of Luoyan Mountain was opened, the portrait of this person had been pasted everywhere, not only the three major families and the Dragon and Tiger Sect were pasting, but also the Demon Sect. Ma Ruhong, who knew the inside story, had a hunch that this person would come to the door sooner or later, so he kept his appearance firmly in mind.

"The method of opening the 'Nine Sons and Mother's Soul Snatching Needle', you must know as a descendant of the Lu family." Luo Han's expression changed from a smile to a threat: "You also know that in addition to me, the Demon Sect is also looking for you. If you tell me how to open it, I don't think anyone will embarrass you. But if you don't say it, even if I don't do it, the Demon Sect will definitely cut down the grass and eradicate it in order to prevent this murder weapon from appearing in the world. ”

Ma Ruhong sighed and said: "The ancestor of the family once expected the current situation, since you have obtained the 'Nine Sons and Mothers Snatching Needle', you can also be regarded as Mo Qingxuan's destined person. It takes a key to open the 'Nine Sons and Mother's Soul Snatching Needle', you wait here, I'll go get it." ”

When Ma Ruhong went out, Luo Han quietly released a wisp of spiritual power and stuck it on Ma Ruhong's belt. In case this guy wants to plot to seize this powerful secret weapon by himself, he can stop it in time.

However, Ma Ruhong did not do this, but walked out directly through a door of the blacksmith shop outside. Luo Han's mental power control distance was limited, and he could no longer follow, so he had to temporarily retract it, but he still released his energy perception and monitored the movements in the iron shop.

Ma Ruhong first went upstairs, stayed upstairs for a while, and then walked down. Just as he was about to enter the blacksmith shop, a strong energy suddenly erupted in the shop outside, and quickly rushed towards Ma Ruhong's position.

Luo Han was shocked, he couldn't care about much, he drew his sword and rushed out, just in time to see Yu Chengcheng grab Ma Ruhong's wrist and twist it, snatch something that looked like a badge, and slap it on Ma Ruhong's chest with a palm. Han Qingwei had analyzed the appearance of the key, so Luo Han was sure that that thing was the key.

Luo Han caught Ma Ruhong, who was flying upside down, and said in astonishment: "Jade Allure, why are you here?" ”

Jade Tilting City Gegejiao smiled and said, "Lin Han, aren't you pretentious and resourceful?" And guess what? ”

Luo Han first talked about Ma Ruhong's pulse, but fortunately it was not serious, so he squinted his eyes and thought about it a little, and then laughed: "Maybe you have never forgotten me, and you have moved the heavens with deep affection, and God has guided you to find me." ”。

Yu Chengcheng shook his head: "No, no, no, don't be sentimental." This girl has already seen through your little tricks, and deliberately sent the sect members away, just to make you let down your guard and show your little fox tail. ”

"Hehe, I believe you're a ghost. Not to mention that you won't know where I'm going, if you were prepared, how could you come alone? Do you think you can take me alone? I know exactly how many hairs you have. ”
