Ping'an Town, Shunyi Pavilion.

Xia Yuan sat in the reception room on the second floor, looking at the shopkeeper He with an uncertain expression with interest, "Old He, you can tell me if you have anything." ”

Because of the formation, Xia Yuan almost used up his savings for several years, and he didn't have any spirit stones in his hands, so he was not sure. After Yuehe and Bai Xue's new batch of spirit runes and pills were made, he immediately brought the spirit runes and pills to Ping'an Town to sell.

This time, the shopkeeper of Shunyi Pavilion looked a little wrong, and after acquiring the spirit runes and pills, he showed a look of wanting to speak and stopped, Xia Yuan couldn't help but be curious before asking directly.

Shopkeeper He hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind, "Xiao Xia, we haven't been very peaceful recently, and there have been several cases of customers who went out of our store being murdered for money. ”

"That's right, you Shunyi Pavilion didn't check it. ”

Shopkeeper He lowered his volume and said: "The guests have been in trouble continuously, how can we not investigate, and finally found out that this matter is related to the disciples of the Lichen Sect, this matter cannot be investigated, and the above orders must be kept secret." Xiao Xia, we have also been friends for many years, I don't want to hide this from you, you should pay more attention to safety when you walk now. ”

Xia Yuan smiled slightly, thinking that Shopkeeper He was still good, "Lao He, thank you, I'll be careful." ”

After buying some materials and bidding farewell to Shopkeeper He, who was worried, Xia Yuan left Shunyi Pavilion.

As soon as he came out of the Shunyi Pavilion, Xia Yuan found the stalker, who was a twenty-eight or nine-year-old blue-clothed thin man with a four-layer cultivation of quenching his body.

He smiled, locked the thin man in blue with his senses, and then walked around the East Street unhurriedly before leaving the East Street and walking towards the outside of Ping'an Town.

In his divine sense, he saw that the thin man in blue used his aura to activate the talisman in his hand when Xia Yuan left Dongjie, Xia Yuan estimated that it was a low-level talisman used for communication, and it seemed that the main owner was about to appear.

Sure enough, when Xia Yuan walked out of Ping'an Town, three people came and the thin man in blue converged and followed Xia Yuan out of town. One of these three people has a quenched body of seven layers, and it seems that he is the leader of this group, and the other two have a quenched body of five layers and a quenched body of four layers.

After leaving Ping'an Town for a few miles, there were fewer pedestrians on the road, and the thin man in blue whispered to the leader: "Senior brother, how will you do it later?"

The leading senior brother said impatiently: "Ma Pole, do you still need to think so much about this quenching four-layer small? Wait for the three of you to shoot together, and you will kill him in three or two clicks." I said, "There's really something good about this little guy?"

The blue-clothed thin man hurriedly explained: "Senior brother, this person has been on the second floor of Shunyi Pavilion for a long time, and Old Man He has specially received him, it must be a transaction of thousands of spirit stones." This kid is only four layers of quenched body, and he is a big fat sheep. ”

"It would be nice if it was a fat sheep, if you really want a few thousand spirit stones, the number handed over this month is enough. I heard that the master uncle is getting more and more short-tempered now, and those who didn't pay enough last month have been beaten up, and a few are disabled, and it is becoming more and more difficult for us to get mixed up from the dust sect. ”

Several other people also vomited their bitterness, and this group of disciples from the Dust Sect walked and chatted, not taking Xia Yuan to heart at all.

Xia Yuan listened to their small talk for a while, and felt that it was not interesting, and then he saw a small road next to the main road, and after sweeping his senses, he found that the place where this path went was silent and uninhabited.

Thinking of getting rid of these pieces of garbage as soon as possible, Xia Yuan turned around and walked onto the path, and the group of disciples from the Lichen Sect also followed.

After a short time, when he reached a secluded and uninhabited place, Xia Yuan stopped. After the group of disciples of the Lichen Sect caught up, Xia Yuan didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, and directly slapped them to death with a big mudra volley.

Xia Yuan returned to the grange, told Yuehe and them about what happened this time, and then said: "This Lichen Sect is simply a great scourge in Jianchang County, in the future, if you meet someone from the Lichen Sect, you will directly destroy him, don't be merciful." ”

Hearing that the people from the Lichen Sect had robbed and killed Xia Yuan, Yuehe was furious, "Young Master, if you want me to say that we should simply kill the Lichen Sect and not let them harm people anymore." ”

Bai Xue heard that the young master of the best person in the world was robbed and killed, and he also said angrily on the side: "Yes, young master, we will kill the door, and those who want to harm the young master are all bad people." ”

Seeing the indignant appearance of the women's army in the family, Xia Yuan felt very relieved. The honest Yuehe, and the timid and fearful Bai Xue, all shouted and killed in order to defend themselves, which was quite moving.

In the blink of an eye, she saw Lan Ling, who was silent on the side, her eyes were slightly red, and she looked at Xia Yuan expectantly.

Xia Yuan thought that Lan Ling's father was killed by the disciples of the Lichen Sect, and he made up his mind to deal with the Lichen Sect, and comforted her with words: "Xiaolan, your father's hatred, young master, I will ask the Lichen Sect for it." ”

Hearing the young master's promise of revenge, thinking that when his father and mother were alive, the harmony and warmth of the family of three, and the Lan Ling, who was full of joy and sorrow, could no longer control it, and cried bitterly. She suddenly knelt down in front of Xia Yuan, and sobbed: "Thank you, young master, Lan Ling is willing to be a slave for the rest of my life, in order to repay the young master's great kindness." ”

Yuehe and Bai Xue looked at Lan Ling, who was kneeling down and crying bitterly, with a look of surprise. Yuehe took a few steps to help Lan Ling up, and Lan Ling leaned weakly on Yuehe, still crying bitterly.

"Young Master, what's going on?" Yuehe asked Xia Yuan while patting Lan Ling's back.

When Lan Ling got along with Yuehe, he didn't want to mention the tragedy of his father, Xia Yuan, Ma Daha, didn't tell Yuehe and them in detail, Yuehe and Bai Xue only knew that Lan Ling's parents died at a young age, and they didn't know the specific situation.

Xia Yuan told Yuehe and Bai Xue about Lan Ling's situation, and after hearing Lan Ling's tragic experience, Yuehe strengthened her determination to deal with the Lichen Sect, "Young Master, Ling'er is so good, we must avenge her." ”

Bai Xue also stood up angrily, waving her short legs and shouting, "Revenge, revenge for Sister Ling'er." ”

Having set the big goal of sweeping away the Lichen Sect, Xia Yuan touched his chin and thought: The elder disciples of the Lichen Sect are scattered all over Jianchang County, and he doesn't have the patience to sweep around, so it seems that he has to find a way. After this time, after sweeping away the Dust Sect, he will definitely become famous, how to treat the family, how to position the new social identity according to his own ideas, these must be thought about.

Xia Yuan told Yuehe and Bai Xue his thoughts, "Let's discuss and discuss together and see how to do it." ”

Yuehe and Bai Xue looked at each other when they heard this, staring at each other widely, what did they think about these.

"Young master, I listen to you, you are the smartest, and your method must be the best. I'll take Ling'er to freshen up, young master, you think slowly. Yuehe half-mixed and half-helped Lan Ling to walk outside the house.

"Sister He is right, the young master's method must be the best, and I will also accompany Sister Ling'er. Bai Xue also hurriedly chased Yuehe out of the door.

As soon as the women's army heard that they were going to use their brains, they immediately scattered and fled.

Xia Yuan looked at the empty room in a blink of an eye, shook his head helplessly, and had to think of a way alone.

After thinking about it for a long time, Xia Yuan felt that he should start with the county guard's mansion, Lichen Sect was so arrogant and domineering in Jianchang County, and he must have been dissatisfied when he came to the county guard's mansion. It is probably because the county guard is limited to the strength in his hand that is not as good as that of the Lichen Sect, and he is unwilling to ask for help, which has led to the current erosive situation.

Cooperate with the County Shoufu to pull out the Lichen Sect, as long as you help him kill the three major Liding of the Lichen Sect, and the remaining disciples of the Lichen Sect will be handed over to the Junshou Mansion to sweep up.

Ge Songnan, as the county guard, can just become a bridge of communication between the two sides, thinking of this, Xia Yuan decided to go to Ge Songnan.

Xia Yuan hid his figure, and Edgeworth went straight to Guning City, this time he landed directly in the county guard's mansion and found Ge Songnan in the small courtyard in the northwest corner.

For Xia Yuan's visit, Ge Songnan was of course extremely welcome, and he warmly welcomed Xia Yuan to sit down and watch tea.

"I came to Guning City today to buy materials, and by the way, I came to sit with you. Xia Yuan casually found a reason and explained it simply.

After chatting with Ge Songnan for a while, I listened to him talk about the recent events in Guning City.

When he heard that two people from Gu Ning City had entered the Royal Courtyard this year, Xia Yuan deliberately asked, "Two people have entered the Royal Courtyard this year?"

"The other is Cai Wuji of the Cai family, when they left Guning City to go to Beijing, I also praised them on behalf of the county guard. That Cai Wuji was not simple, and within a few days of breaking through the seventh layer of the quenching body, his cultivation had grown to the middle of the seventh layer. ”

Xia Yuan was not surprised to hear this, Cai Wuji had experienced a practice under the guidance of divine thoughts, and had a deeper understanding of herself and the exercises, and now her cultivation would be more efficient than before, coupled with her long-term accumulation in the sixth layer of quenching, it was normal for her to make rapid progress.

Xia Yuan followed the conversation and mentioned the conflict between Cai Wuji and the disciples of the Lichen Sect, "Cai Wuji is good, the disciples of the Lichen Sect are too rampant, I heard that there are disciples of the Lichen Sect everywhere in Jianchang County now, and the county guard you assist does not care." ”

Ge Songnan smiled bitterly after hearing this: "The Duanmu County Guard is also very annoyed by what the Lichen Sect did, but the strength of the County Shoufu is not enough, and it can't suppress the Lichen Sect." ”

"This county guard is a county guard who defends the country, you can go to the capital, please send someone to support the court. ”

"Far less, this is very old-fashioned from the Dust Sect, and it's very difficult to get it. Ge Songnan also wanted to divert Xia Yuan's interest to the Lichen Sect, and deliberately sold a pass.

Xia Yuan saw Ge Songnan's posture, and he was in the middle of it, and cooperated with an interested look: "Old Ge, tell me, why is it not easy to play?"

Ge Songnan saw that Xia Yuan was interested, and carefully considered it, "The county guard has carefully checked the Lichen Sect, this sect was only established one hundred and seventy years ago, and it was founded by the three Liding of the Lichen Sect now, they were one in the middle of Liding and two in the early stage of Liding. ”

"These three are not patriots, not even from the Yunxiang Continent. After the establishment of the Lichen Sect, it was very low-key in the early days, and the Weiguo royal family monitored it for a period of time, and felt that there was no problem, so they let the Lichen Sect exist. ”

"During this period, about one hundred and twenty years have passed, and the Lichen Sect has not been very visible to the world, but has only accepted some orphans as disciples and cultivated silently behind closed doors. ”

"Fifty years ago, the situation began to change, and the Lichen Sect gradually became involved in the world, relying on a three-standing tripod, and began to run rampant in Jianchang County. ”

"However, they have a good grasp of proportion, never go out of Jianchang County, do not provoke the merchants and local big families in the capital, and give some face to the small families, and they will not go too far in everything. ”

"They mainly target merchants and commoners, and try not to move the family, so that there is not much pressure from the upper echelons of society. If the county guard asks for help from the asari, it will be said that the asari branch will not support it, but an incompetent hat will definitely not be able to escape, and the county guard will be embarrassed. ”
