Chapter 35: Anecdotes from the rivers and lakes
has been riding a horse, Han Yixuan took advantage of the rest on the road to ask Gongsun Duan to tell him the situation in the capital in detail, after listening to him, he felt that the form was more severe than he imagined, and his handsome face was stained with frost.
Although it was only said on the surface that the prince was assassinated, and the specific situation was concealed, but listening to Gongsun Duan, there were constantly imperial doctors entering and leaving the prince's mansion, and there were constantly imperial doctors being beheaded and their homes raided, and the prince was in danger.
In the event of the death of the crown prince, many of the equilibrium of the previous dynasty will be broken, and the various forces will be reshuffled. I don't know who sent someone to assassinate the prince, but he still succeeded, this strength should not be underestimated.
After careful analysis, it is unlikely that the father is very likely, he does not have such a powerful person in his hands. It is possible to hire a charlatan, but as long as there is action, the tail will be left, and with the usual caution of the father, he will not do such a risky thing.
It is said that the King of England is the most likely, but a few years ago, the Battle of the British, the King of England was seized power, a group of loyal men died, exiled, and he was placed under the nose of the emperor's grandfather, and he could not spare the energy to carry out this assassination.
Speaking of the King of England, he thought of Han Wensong, the son of the King of England, the man who was as scorching as the moon. Childe is like jade, with good behavior and elegant manners, and he was once the object of his admiration and imitation when he was a teenager. Because of him as an example, in his youthful years of cockfighting and walking dogs, causing trouble, he did not deviate, and he achieved his current character and style.
It's a pity that the unequaled son is now crippled and can only sit in a wheelchair in the next life. The world can no longer see the peerless elegance and grace of the British king.
It was almost time to arrive in the capital, and the two slowed down and talked while riding horses.
"Hey, Yixuan, I forgot to ask you, how did you end up in Changxia Village?" is so poor in such a poor place, and Han Yixuan, a noble son, can live in.
"After I left the capital, I didn't know where to go, I wandered around, and then I encountered several assassinations, and the last assassination was particularly powerful. To hide from the killer, I jumped into a boat. Later, he followed the boat to drift around, and then got on the wrong boat at a pier, and then went to Changxia Village. Thinking of his embarrassment and hesitation at that time, Han Yixuan was full of emotion.
At that time, his mother died, and his cousin went to the bed, and he felt that the whole world had abandoned him, and that he had nothing to love, and it didn't matter where he went, and once he lay on the boat, hoping that he would fall into the water, and maybe all the pain would be gone.
He was startled by the thought of himself, and he knew that if he continued to be depressed, he might not be able to think about it. Later, when he met the village chief in Changxia Village, he came up with the idea of teaching.
One can teach and educate people, the second can divert attention, and the third can find a place to live, and then he is most satisfied with meeting Ruyu there.
Why would he say goodbye to his heartache so quickly, forget his cousin, and like Ruyu, he himself thought about it carefully. He couldn't tell why. But he knew that it wasn't to divert his feelings to drive away his sadness, not because Ruyu happened to be very good to him, and not because he was lonely and lonely.
If someone else is good to him, he will thank her for her kindness and return her help, but he will definitely not put his feelings into it. Ruyu can only be like rain, that's why he likes it.
He did like his cousin, and he preferred Ruyu. The cousin's woman, who was as cold and self-pitying as the bright moon, was just speechless and clear, her hands were clenched, but she couldn't get anything. If it rains, it is a trickle of stream, which can be accommodated, washed, warmed, cooled, and warmed.
There are some longings like rain, the taste of this longing will accompany for a long time, lovesickness can not be resolved, thinking like this, there is a faint melancholy.
"Yixuan, who do you think will assassinate you?" Gongsun asked with a sideways face. He had always felt that Han Yixuan's life was not easy, but he didn't expect it to be so dangerous.
"The first few times it should have been my good big brother, but the last time, it was definitely not." He pondered for a moment, "Those killers have very high martial arts, are well-trained, and cooperate very well, and my eldest brother doesn't have such a powerful character under him." Moreover, they are good at using poison, if it weren't for the fact that Master had specially trained me in this method, I am afraid that I would have died at their hands long ago. ”
"With poison? So powerful? Could it be the killer of Cold Moon Pavilion? Gongsun Duan frowned and thought.
"Cold Moon Pavilion? What is that? "Han Yixuan doesn't know much about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, but Gongsun Duan has a lot of friends in the rivers and lakes. Three religions and nine streams, fox friends and dog friends, calling brothers and brothers, he also advised him to put his heart on the right path and not to wade into troubled waters.
Gongsun Duan smiled bitterly at the time, who wants to have the right path and not go off the rails, he has no choice. His father's official position is not low, but his position is not so important, although he is holding the thigh of the Wing King, but in the capital, not many people can look at it. He is also a concubine, he didn't like to read since he was a child, and his father never seriously planned for him. His mother-in-law and several elder brothers are suppressing him, if he doesn't go sideways, he will not even be able to leave the scum that has been swallowed up long ago.
"In recent years, several major sects have emerged on the rivers and lakes, among which Leng Yue Pavilion is the most famous, they specialize in killing people, as long as they give money, the king of heaven and Lao Tzu dare to kill. Their killers are not only well-trained, ruthless, but also adept at using poison. With your martial arts, they should be the ones who can force you to hide everywhere. ”
"Cold Moon Pavilion? Okay, I remember. Han Yixuan secretly clenched his fists, determined to spare time to meet them.
"Be especially careful about their pavilion master, Lin Lengyue, I heard that he has never failed to attack, and his methods are particularly despicable, and his poison art has reached the point of perfection. It's a good thing he didn't do it himself, otherwise you would have been in real danger. Gongsun Duan looked worried, he had heard of Lin Lengyue's power. His martial arts are not ordinary, but the most powerful thing is poison. He never left a mouth alive.
"Okay, I see, I'll be careful." Han Yixuan nodded, he would be careful, he couldn't hold it up, he still had to live like rain. "What else should I pay attention to on the rivers and lakes? You're more familiar than I am, think about it. Han Yixuan's heart moved, and he asked more. I always feel that the characters in the rivers and lakes are not just assassination, they will definitely have actions in the future.
"There is also a star-picking building, you should also pay attention to it, this organization started by selling news, whether it is the Ouchi Palace, or rumors in the rivers and lakes, or private privacy, they can know it, but the price is expensive."
"Their methods should be very powerful, otherwise they would have been killed long ago if they knew so much secret information."
"Well, you're right. Their landlord, Su Xinglou, is a good hand in the rivers and lakes. I heard that his master is one of the three masters of the rivers and lakes, Ouyang Chun. ”
"How come there are still three masters? Who are they? Han Yixuan was curious, he regretted very much that he had patronized the practice when he followed his master, and he didn't inquire about the martial arts gossip, the master is a person from the rivers and lakes, and he must know a lot of things.
It's a pity that he hasn't seen Master for a long time, when he was sixteen years old, Master said that his martial arts had already achieved something, and all he lacked was actual combat experience and experience in the rivers and lakes, and he had nothing to teach him.
Since then, Master has not come to see him. Master's departure was as mysterious as his arrival, he didn't know Master's name, he didn't know his origin, he had asked curiously, but Master was just cold to him for a few days, so scared that he didn't dare to ask anymore.
He guessed that the master should belong to the hermit of the rivers and lakes, and there are strict rules that prohibit the idle affairs of the rivers and lakes or the government, so the master does not reveal his origin and origin.
"The three masters, Ouyang Chun, Yan Feiyu, Zhu Qianchen, Ouyang Chun is a great kung fu insider, and he once challenged eighteen good players in the rivers and lakes overnight without defeat. He is very strict in accepting apprentices, and there are only a few in the entire rivers and lakes, and his skills are good, and I heard that he has retired a few years ago. Zhu Qianchen is a foreign kung fu is excellent, he recruited disciples, established the Hanyang Gang, and now many martial arts celebrities have studied under him. ”
"What about Yan Feiyu? How is he? Gongsun Duan only talked about two and then stopped, Han Yixuan asked strangely, there are only two, what about the other one?
"This Yan Feiyu is very mysterious, he was an ordinary businessman in Jiangnan, he didn't know martial arts at all, and then he didn't know what adventures he had, his martial arts improved by leaps and bounds, and then he was framed by the Jianghu people, his whole family was destroyed, and he almost died. Then he suddenly appeared and killed all twenty-six of his enemies overnight, but has not been heard from since. Because of this reason, everyone thinks that his martial arts are indeed very high, so they call him one of the three masters. ”
"Well, what adventure is so powerful? How can people's martial arts improve so quickly? If the people of the rivers and lakes knew, they wouldn't be crazy. Han Yixuan shook his head in disbelief.
"Who knows? Everyone speculated that his extermination was related to what miraculous medicine he got to improve his martial arts, and some people also said that he got a martial arts secret book, which led to the disaster of annihilation. What the specific reason is, probably only Yan Feiyu knows. Gongsun touched the horse's ears and told the horse to slow down.
"Which of the three of them has the highest martial arts?" Han Yixuan pulled the reins of the horse and asked the horse to walk a little slower.
"I don't know, I heard that Yan Feiyu and Zhu Qianchen have compared, and they have fought for five days and five nights without distinguishing the winner."
Han Yixuan nodded, and the two talked a lot one after another, most of the time Han Yixuan was listening, he hoped to know more about the things on the rivers and lakes, and there would definitely be a lot of contact in the future. He had a hunch that the Jianghu people were getting closer and closer to them.
