Chapter 724: Crazy Knife and Yan Lan
After leaving the room, Shifang said to Yan Yin, "Commander, Yang Fei, the city lord has been buried." But now that there is no city lord in the north city, what do you think should be done in this matter?"
After a deep groan, Yan Yin said, "When did Yang Fei die?"
"Three months ago!" Shifang said, "Because Wangbei City is some distance from Yanwu Academy, our people are not so quick to deliver news. ”
Nodding, Yan Yin frowned and thought, "If it is said that it is three months, then the situation here should not be known to the imperial capital." If it were another city, I wouldn't have asked, but this Wangbei City is related to the development of Northern Xinjiang and is very important to Northern Xinjiang, so naturally it cannot be handed over to others. ”
After thinking about it, Yan Yin looked at Shifang and said, "You don't have any good candidates?"
Shifang pondered for a moment, looked at Yan Yin and said, "Yes, yes, but I don't know if you want to use it." ”
"Who?" Yan Yin asked.
"Miss Lan. Looking at Yan Yin, Shi Fang said, "Miss Lan is in the city, and the mad knife is also in the city." ”
Yan Yin was stunned, he naturally knew who Miss Lan was talking about in Shifang.
Yan Lan and Crazy Knife have never heard from them since they left Zhenbei City.
At this moment, hearing that the two of them were in Zhenbei City, Yan Yin felt a little surprised.
Lowering his head and thinking for a while, Yan Yin said, "Take me to meet them!"
Under the leadership of Shifang and Duan Yan, Yan Yin came to the front of a shop in the city called "Lan Zhi Steamed Buns". ”
At this time, the front of Lan Zhi's steamed bun shop was overcrowded, and many people were waiting in line to buy steamed buns.
And a handsome woman wearing an apron is selling big, white buns.
"They make a living by selling buns and live the life of ordinary people. Crazy Knife buys meat to make steamed buns every day, while Miss Lan sells steamed buns. The two of us lived very peacefully, and our people had stumbled upon them in the city before, and we had been here a few times and had conversations. But Miss Lan has repeatedly warned us not to let us tell you the news that they are here. Shifang said, "When General Xueli led his troops south, he also came here and wanted to invite the mad sword to go to war with the army. But Miss Lan refused to be bloody and did not let the mad knife go. ”
Yan Yin scanned it with her spiritual sense and found the crazy knife that was chopping wood to make steamed buns behind the steamed bun shop.
In the past, it seemed to be a domineering and mighty mad knife, but now it is more calm and peaceful.
Thinking about it, after all, Crazy Knife is already in his thirties, and at this age, a person's heart has begun to slowly settle down.
"Miss Lan and Crazy Knife are married, they are pregnant with a son, who is already three years old, and is currently attending a school in the city. Duan Yan said, "I've been to see that kid, the tiger head is very cute, and he looks very similar to the crazy knife." ”
Looking at Yan Lan, who was selling steamed buns there, Yan Yin couldn't help but recall the first time she saw Yan Lan in the Yan family. At that time, she was a little girl who was bullied by her clan after her grandfather's death.
When they met again many years later, she was with Xu Xiaohua. It's just that at that time, Yan Yin didn't know that Xu Lan was Yan Lan.
Later, after Yan Yin was inclined to the military in Zhenbei City, and Yan Gang was killed again, Yan Lan and Yan Haoran and Yan Shan left him one after another.
At that time, the only people who accompanied Yan Yin were Su Yanying and Fengshen.
After many years, Yan Yin has long forgotten the bitterness.
Quietly watching Yan Lan sell buns to guests there, Yan Yin did not step forward.
"Auntie, I want a bun too. At this time, a dirty little girl looked at Yanlan with a copper plate, and whispered, "My brother hasn't eaten for several days, but I got a copper plate, Auntie, can you sell me a bun." ”
Looking at the little girl, Yan Lan reached out and took the copper plate, and said with a smile, "Of course you can." ”
As she spoke, Yan Lan wrapped four large buns in oiled paper, handed them to the little girl and said, "Here!"
"Auntie...... Why are there so many?" the little girl hurriedly waved her hand and said, "I...... I only need one, and I can't afford more. ”
Smiling, Yan Lan said, "This is what Auntie gave you and your brother to eat, don't be polite." If you are hungry next time, remember to come to Auntie, who will give you free buns to eat. ”
The little girl took the bun gratefully, hurriedly thanked her, and then excitedly walked towards a little boy sitting on the ground with his knees in the distance.
Glancing at the little girl, Yan Lan looked at the people who were still queuing in front of her, and said with a smile, "Everyone, today's buns have been sold out, if you want to eat them, come back tomorrow!"
Hearing this, the people in line sighed very regretfully, and then gradually dispersed.
When Yan Lan was packing the steamer containing the steamed buns, she seemed to notice something, and then looked across the street from Lan Zhi's steamed bun shop.
When I saw Yan Yin and them, I couldn't help but be stunned.
At this time, the mad knife happened to come out of the house, and was about to bring the steamer in. glanced at Yan Lan suspiciously, and then followed her gaze to see Yan Yin and them.
Lan Zhi bun shop.
Although the steamed bun shop is not very large, it is very clean.
After inviting the three of them to sit down, Crazy Dao asked Yan Lan to get tea, and then he looked at Yan Yin and said, "I haven't seen you for many years, you are already a martial saint." ”
The strength of the Crazy Sword is still that of the Martial King, and like Ling Yunfeng, he has never entered the realm of the Martial Saint.
And Yan Lan is also the same as the mad knife, and her strength is also in the realm of the Martial King.
Looking at the mad knife, Yan Yin smiled and said, "Can you tell me about your things over the years?"
After a deep groan, the mad knife said, "There's nothing to say, since we left Zhenbei City, we have been wandering around. Later, the emperor and his entourage learned the news that Youruo was in Southern College, so they went back to Southern College to find Youruo. The bull was unfortunately killed by a strange beast on the way, and then after we buried the bull, we went to the imperial capital and went to the wild city. Later, Xiaolan and I got married, and she gave birth to a son for me. So, we came to the north of the town and settled down. ”
At this time, Yan Lan walked in with tea.
"A little tea, I hope you don't mind. Yan Lan smiled.
It can be seen that Yan Lan is very satisfied with her current life.
"What about you, I've heard about you all the time, but I don't know much about it. Looking at Yan Yin, Crazy Knife asked.
Smiling, Yan Yin said, "I'm fine, it's not a big deal." ”
"Now that the Fengyun Empire is in turmoil, you, the Marquis of Dingbei, should be very busy, right?" Yan Landao "Now that Fengyun is about to uproot the Yanyun Mountain Range, many residents from southern Xinjiang and north of the Yanyun Mountain Range have flocked to the northern frontier. I understand from them that your army is currently helping the Empire in its defenses. You appeared here this time, but because of Yang Fei's death?"
Nodding, Yan Yin looked at the mad knife and said, "Now that the position of the city lord of Wangbei City is vacant, I want to find a master for it." ”
Crazy Dao was stunned, glanced at Yan Lan, looked at Yan Yin and said, "What do you mean?"
Shi Fang said, "Because Wangbei City is very important, we recommend Your Excellency to the Commander. With Your Excellency's ability, being a steamed bun shop owner here is too condescending. ”
"Hmm," Yan Yin nodded and said, "What I mean is to let you be the lord of this city." I have enough trust in you. Now the northern Xinjiang is in ruins, and the northern city is the gate to enter the northern Xinjiang. If this gate falls into someone else's hands, I am not at ease. ”
frowned, and said madly, "I'm just a martial artist, I'm afraid I can't take the position of city lord." ”
Yan Yin said: "Don't say that, with the mad sword, your strength is enough to sit on the position of the city lord of Wangbei City." ”
Shifang also spoke: "The commander is right, there is a martial king sitting in Wangbei City, and he will definitely be able to shock the young people in the Quartet. Moreover, our people will also help you to take control of Wangbei City as soon as possible. ”
The mad knife didn't make a sound, but looked at Yan Lan.
Ying Ting's Yan Lan pondered for a while, then looked at the mad knife and said, "Then help him!"
"Thank you!" Yan Yin nodded, as if he remembered something, and said, "By the way, now Ling Yunfeng is the acting dean of Yanwu Academy, if you don't mind, I want you to hang a position as a teacher in Yanwu Academy." ”
"Teacher?" Yan Lan said, "It's not impossible, I also thought about sending our child to Yanwu Academy to study when he is older." ”
Crazy Knife also spoke, "It's okay with this, but if you can pull Zhuang Shu over, maybe it's better." ”
"Zhuang Shu!" Yan Yin's eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice, "Yang Fei, the city lord, was killed by the people in the life-seeking organization he created, and I was about to settle accounts with him." ”
Shaking his head, the mad knife said, "That was already before, and Zhuang Shu's life-seeking organization was no longer under his control. We met him a year ago and he told us something. He said that the Order-Seeking Organization had been secretly mastered by Princess Linglong, who was next to the current Imperial Monarch, and that he himself had been hunted down by the Order-Seeking Order. And the subordinates who followed him also died one by one on the way to be hunted down. Zhuang Shu is not a bad person, but he is so strong, plus his brother was killed by you, and his father died, so he has a lot of grudges against you. If you can find him and help him, maybe let him be your helper. ”
"Wait......" Shi Fang frowned, looked at the mad knife and said, "Your Excellency just said that the Commanding Organization was mastered by Princess Linglong's people a year ago, right?"
Yan Yin also seemed to think of something, and glanced at Shifang, and couldn't help but sink his face.
The mad knife also seemed to understand something, and said in a condensed voice, "I heard that Yang Fei City Lord was assassinated, could it be that the life-seeking organization did it......?"
Although the flower of the mad knife did not finish speaking, Yan Yin knew what he wanted to say.
After being silent for a while, Yan Yin looked at Shifang and said, "Put aside the matter about Yang Fei for the time being, you let your people pay more attention to the news of Zhuang Shu." If you know where he is, let me know as soon as possible. ”
Nodding, Shi Fang responded, "Well, my subordinates understand." ”
Zhuang Shu's strength is naturally needless to say, even if it is Ling Yunfeng, he may not be his opponent.
When she thought of Zhuang Shu, Yan Yin thought of another person.
"Crazy Knife, do you know the whereabouts of Shangguan Jianhong?" Looking at Crazy Knife, Yan Yin opened his mouth and asked, "When we were in Wild City before, he helped Ling Yunfeng. Later, I heard that he walked with the apprentice of the owner of the drunken Yin Fang, Ling Piaopiao, and then eloped with the dance. ”
"Shangguan Jianhong......" A fine light flashed in the eyes of the mad knife, and he said, "Don't you want to pull him into your Yanwu Academy?"
Smiling, Yan Yin said, "I have some ideas." ”
"Shangguan Jianhong is a master, a real master. "Crazy Knife Dao" Although I don't know what his strength is now, but I think it will only be stronger than me. If you want to pull him into Yanwu Academy, then I'm afraid you'll have to work hard. I don't know much about him. However, I know that he is an orphan and loves to wander around. If you want to find him, I'm afraid it's difficult. I can try to get him to come to me, though. ”
"Uh-huh?" Yan Yin said in surprise, "What do you say?"
"Shangguan Jianhong is a bit of a proud person, he has excellent swordsmanship, and he has fought against Feng Yunxiao. Feng Yunxiao is like me, practicing swordsmanship. Now that Fengyun Xiao has become a martial saint, it is naturally impossible for him to fight with Fengyun Xiao. But if I challenge him, he might come to Wangbeicheng to fight me against me. The battle between swords has been going on for a long time, and if he wants to defeat Fengyun Xiao, he will definitely not miss this opportunity!"
