Chapter 50: The Invitation
If something like this happens, the Haitian Gang won't be able to use this meal.
Jiang Pingchao was kind enough to save people but was designed, and he was furious in his heart, and directly slapped "Yu Qingqing", and made people break the hands and feet of these weak water palace disciples, and threw them out of the door together with the corpse of "Yu Qingqing", which made him feel smoother, and quickly took out the silver ticket to compensate for the loss of the store, and it happened that the disciple who had been ordered to find the place to stay sent someone back to report the news, saying that the inn in the city was full of guests, and it was really impossible to accommodate so many of them.
In just three days, Yunshui Inn has had two murders, for the store is tantamount to flying disaster, travelers from the north and south do not dare to come to live here, ordinary people do not want to wade into troubled water, the huge inn only lives in Wangshumen female disciples, so worried that the shopkeeper's mouth is blistering, Leng Buding saw a large wave of people pouring into the lobby, first surprised, and then a bitter face, for fear that these people will make trouble in their own store.
The Haitian Gang has a deep foundation in the East China Sea, and there are countless open and dark transactions under their hands, which can be described as wealthy, Jiang Pingchao saw the bitterness of the shopkeeper's face, and directly took out a silver ticket with a denomination of eight hundred taels and put it on the counter, and said: "This inn has been chartered by us, and we will leave after three days." β
Earned eight hundred taels of silver in three days, the shopkeeper didn't expect his family to be a blessing in disguise, Ma Yu accepted the silver ticket, nodded and smiled a few words, and then took the guys to the back kitchen to work in a fun way, and vacated the entire lobby.
After all, Jiang Yanluo is the weak daughter's family, and she has been running around for a few days, Shicai was frightened again, and took the maid upstairs to rest with a confession, and the second floor on the left and right were all Wangshumen disciples, and it was just right for her to live there.
Everyone was busy with the division of labor, Jiang Pingchao moved out a round table, motioned for Mu Qing to sit down and speak, Fang Yongyan sat beside him, and saw that a plain-clothed woman was also sitting next to Mu Qing's left hand, her appearance was five points similar to that "Yu Qingqing", her expression was sad, as cute and pitiful as rain hitting a lotus.
"This is my third junior sister, Ye Xixi." Mu Qing sighed, "She and Senior Sister Yu are half-sisters, and when they were young, their families suffered hardships, and they worshiped under Wangshu together, and they have relied on each other for many years. Early this morning, the eight corpses were found at the door of the inn, and the matter was not small, I went to the official mansion with Senior Sister Ye, and let the remaining junior sisters stay in the inn and not walk around, but I didn't expect to see the people from the weak water palace coming to the door as soon as I came back, the scene was chaotic, Senior Sister Yu chased one of them and ran away, and when she came back, ......"
"As soon as she came back, I recognized that it wasn't my sister." Ye Xixi shed tears in her eyes, and her words were choked, "My sister's temperament is wild, even in the face of the master, she refuses to admit her mistakes, how can she obediently bow her head and listen to the senior sister's training?" As soon as I saw her reluctantly approaching the senior sister, I had a hunch that something strange and went up to stop her. β
Fang Yongyan noticed that her left forearm was still wrapped in a bloody white cloth, thinking that it was left at that time.
"The impostor was exposed in person, and when I saw that the situation was not good, I fled when I saw that the situation was not good, and I led someone to search in the direction where Senior Sister Yu left......" Mu Qing's face was unbearable, but he still had to continue, "Finally, we found Senior Sister Yu in a well. β
Yu Qingqing was pierced through the heart with a knife, stripped off the hairpin ring clothes, wrapped in a torn sheet and thrown into the dry well, no longer her young and beautiful appearance, not to mention the same sisters who get along with her day and night, even Jiang Pingchao and Fang Yongyan felt resentful when they heard it.
Jiang Pingchao said coldly: "Killing that poisonous woman with one palm is really cheap for her." β
Mu Qingdao: "The weak water palace has harmed my two junior sisters, and Wangshumen will not give up with him, but he will implicate ......."
"Mu Nuxia's words are too outrageous." Jiang Pingchao said, "For seventy years, Wangshumen has guarded the Dongshan Ridge, and the Haitian Gang has been entrenched on the coast of the East China Sea. β
Jiang Pingchao's words came from the bottom of his heart, which can be described as heroic and dry, Rao is Ye Xi was very sad in his heart, and he couldn't help but look at him a few more times. In comparison, Fang Yongyan, the only son of the leader of the martial arts alliance, seemed to be mediocre, even if he sat at the same table with them, he was like a white porcelain vase with an additional decoration.
He was dual-minded, listening to the conversation between Jiang Pingchao and the three of them, but what he was thinking about was the young man in the restaurant.
Zhaoyan.
Fang Yongyan grew up in the martial arts league since he was a child, and he knows all the life anecdotes of many Jianghu characters, and he knows a lot about them, and the martial arts rookies who have emerged in recent years are even more familiar to him, but he has never heard of such a person, if it is an embroidered pillow, it is just that, but the other party can sneak into the helmsman of the weak water palace unknowingly to kill people and drag the corpse, and can save Jiang Pingchao within one move, that table seems to be just thrown casually, but in fact, it has extremely high requirements for the grasp of the angle and timing of the shot, and it can harm the innocent in one step. One step slow can't save people, let alone smash a practitioner who is not weak in martial arts to the ground, so that the other party doesn't have time to notice.
Jiang Pingchao and Mu Qing are both hot heroes of the generation of Wulin Baidao, the former's martial arts are directly chasing his father Jiang Tianyang, and the latter's swordsmanship is deeply rooted in the true biography of Xuanqing Master Tai Xie Ange, even in the face of Luo Bingyan and other long-famous predecessors in the rivers and lakes, they also have the power to fight, but before Zhao Yan made a move, neither of them noticed the clues, it can be seen that the other party's martial arts are at least above these two people, if compared with peers, I am afraid that only the young master of the beggar gang known as the "martial madman" Wang Ding can fight with him.
How could such a person be unknown on the rivers and lakes?
Fang Yongyan was thinking endlessly, and it happened that Jiang Pingchao and Mu Qing also talked about this, which made him feel refreshed.
"The ...... who shot at the restaurant today" Jiang Pingchao's tone was a little subtle, "That person claims to be Zhaoyan, and his martial arts are unexpectedly strong, since he is seeking revenge for Wangshumen, does Mu Nuxia know where this person comes from?" β
"I'm ashamed to say that I really don't know." Mu Qing shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Before today, I had never seen this person, and I asked the junior sisters on the way back, but none of them recognized his name and identity, let alone how he dared to provoke the weak water palace like this......"
Speaking of this, she and Ye Xixi glanced at each other, and said solemnly: "However, in the end, he is avenging my Wangshumen disciple, and the Weak Water Palace wants to trouble him because of this matter, that is, to find trouble with Wangshumen." β
Seeing her resolute expression, Fang Yongyan couldn't help but smile, this Wangshumen disciple is really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows, no wonder her senior brother has been thinking about it for five years after saying goodbye to Jiangcheng, and he still refuses to marry a wife.
However, Fang Yongyan thought so in his heart, but said: "Since Mu Nuxia, you don't know him, the matter of this person coming out for Wangshu is up for discussion." β
Ye Xixi still thought that he was going to be a saw-mouthed gourd all the time, and when he heard him speak, he seemed to question the righteous man who avenged his junior sisters, and he was inevitably unhappy in his heart, and frowned: "What do you say?" β
Judging from the sentence he left, this person is not a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, but he really dares to be an enemy of the Weak Water Palace, so there are two things to say, one is that he is really indignant, and he draws his sword to help when he sees injustice...... "After a pause, Fang Yongyan looked at Mu Qing, "Second, this person may have a grudge against the Weak Water Palace, and he just used the topic to play for Wangshumen, and he had other plans in his heart." β
Jiang Pingchao asked puzzledly: "If he has other intentions, why did he leave after saying cruel words?" β
Fang Yongyan said: "This is what I can't figure out for the time being. β
Zhao Yan is like a cloud in the fog, making people vague and unreal, the four of them discussed for two hours and did not analyze the reason, but felt that the clues were getting more and more chaotic, which made people feel dizzy.
Just as Jiang Pingchao beckoned Xiao Er to prepare for the evening meal, the closed door of the inn was suddenly knocked on.
Since the Yunshui Inn was taken over by Jiang Pingchao, it was naturally replaced by people from the Haitian Gang inside and out, and there were four disciples guarding the door, even if there was something, it would be passed on or warned, but at the moment there was no movement except for this knock.
The expressions of everyone in the lobby changed slightly, Mu Qing's back that had just relaxed tightened again, she held the hilt of the sword, and glanced at Ye Xixi, who got up and went to open the door, only to see a beautiful woman in yellow shirt standing at the door, followed by two men, two women and four servants, looking very imposing, like Miss Gaomen.
To her left and right, four guards stood like sculptures, two of them still unsheathed, with no wounds on their bodies, except for an extra stone under their feet.
Flying stones hurt people, and they are separated from each other.
Ye Xixi's heart was awe-inspiring, he looked at the woman in yellow shirt, and asked in a deep voice, "Who is here, and what is the important matter?" β
The woman in the yellow shirt smiled, raised her hand and saluted, just the right amount to show the water tattoo on the back of her hand, her voice was as pleasant as the yellow warbler out of the valley, and said: "Below is Shen Luoyue, the right protector of the weak water palace, the palace master heard that all the young heroes came from afar, and specially let people set up a reception banquet at the helm, and sent me and others to come here to greet them, and enjoy the friendship of the landlord." β
Jiang Pingchao had already stepped forward, sneered when he heard this, and said, "Receiving the wind banquet, I'm afraid it's the Hongmen banquet!" β
The smile on Shen Luoyue's face did not change, and she took the opportunity to answer: "Recently, there has been some discord between the Weak Water Palace and the young heroes, and this banquet is also to resolve the misunderstanding between each other, I hope you will come to the appointment as scheduled." β
"Misunderstanding?" Mu Qing's face was as cold as frost, "You are weak and the people of the Water Palace have harmed my junior sister first, and they have bullied people and forced me to wait behind, and there is no misunderstanding in this matter, there is only a blood feud." β
Shen Luoyue sighed faintly.
If you talk about her appearance, she is less inferior to Jiang Yanluo, and her bright atmosphere is not as good as Mu Qing, but with this light sigh, Bailian Steel also turned into a soft finger, and some disciples with poor concentration suddenly swayed and became red-faced.
"We sincerely invite ......"
Shen Luoyue brushed her sideburns behind her ears with one hand, and handed out an embroidered handkerchief with the other.
This handkerchief is small and exquisite, the corners of the plain white silk are embroidered with a cluster of orchids, Jiang Pingchao's face changed when he saw it, there is no other reason, this is Jiang Yanluo's personal handkerchief!
Mu Qing saw that his expression changed suddenly, and he realized something in his heart, and immediately went up to the second floor to look for Jiang Yanluo, but it was too late, the window in the room was opened, and the maid was fainted to the ground, Jiang Yanluo was nowhere to be seen, and there was no clue to ask the Wangshumen disciples who lived in the left and right wings.
Jiang Pingchao clenched his hands into fists, his knuckles made a chilling sound, and asked word by word, "What happened to your sister?" β
Shen Luoyue was shocked by his evil spirit, subconsciously took half a step back, the smile on the corner of her mouth was slightly constricted, and she said solemnly: "Young Master Jiang, don't worry, Sister Ling is just one step ahead, when you arrive at the helm, you will definitely be able to see her." β
Fang Yongyan sneered: "First coerce people and then invite each other, the hospitality of the Weak Water Palace is really eye-opening." β
Shen Luoyue's gaze fell on him at this time, and Xiumei frowned slightly: "Your Excellency is ......"
"Linyuanmen Fang Yongyan, the Miss Jiang you 'invited' without permission is my fiancΓ©e."
Shen Luoyue's face changed slightly, her eyes swept around behind everyone, and sure enough, she saw some people who were dressed differently from the disciples of the Haitian Gang, she quickly gathered her mind, and the other party smiled and said, "In this case, Young Master Fang can be rewarded tonight." β
Fang Yongyan said indifferently: "Okay." β
He took the lead in accepting the invitation, Jiang Pingchao was concerned about blood and had no reason to do so, and Mu Qing naturally would not refute it.
However, for the sake of prudence, Yunshui Inn had to leave at least one person in charge, Fang Yongyan and Jiang Pingchao were going to go, Mu Qing had to stay again and again, and told Ye Xixi to go for him.
The three of them picked five good players from their respective sects, and a group of eighteen people left with Shen Luoyue and the others, Mu Qing stood at the door of the inn, watching their figures gradually move away, his brows furrowed more and more.
Just one floor away, the people of the Weak Water Palace were able to avoid their eyes and ears to capture Jiang Yanluo, and the other party's martial arts were afraid that they were also above her and Jiang Pingchao. The disciples of the three sects together are really quite a lot, but it is really not enough to mention compared to the head snake of the Weak Water Palace, Meixian is five hundred miles away from their sect, and the water is far away at the moment and cannot quench the thirst of the near, if something really happens, I am afraid it will be difficult to get out.
If it is said that among the four major sects of the White Dao, it should be the Linyuan Gate and the Haitian Gang that are called the double bib, and among the six major demon sects of the underworld, it should be the Heaven Replenishing Sect and the Weak Water Palace to fight for life and death, with their current manpower, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, the reason why Luo Bingyan is now sending people to show goodwill is that one is afraid of the sect behind them, and the other is that he is afraid of the Zhaoyan of unknown origin.
After all, the other party was able to infiltrate the Weak Water Palace single-handedly and kill eight people in a row, which could not threaten Luo Bingyan.
Mu Qing thought about it for a while, and invited some people to whisper a few words......
