Volume 1 Chapter 9 The Beginning of the Conspiracy
The morning sunshine in Jiandu City is exceptionally beautiful, and the clouds are open.
All kinds of shops, inns, and restaurants have begun to open their doors one after another.
The streets were full of people, all kinds of shouts, and some people who performed on the street to make money.
The people who lived in the various villas of the Swordsman Inn, everyone got up one after another, and they all came to the first floor of the inn.
Zhang Shaoqing and ten people found two tables to sit down, and the shopkeeper gave each table some steamed buns and side dishes, and everyone had to fill their stomachs, so that they could have the energy to find clues.
At this time, Ye Ling said: "Senior brothers and sisters, I suggest that you divide into two teams to investigate, if we all check together, the speed should be a little slow, and I don't know when we will find the clues, so if you divide into two teams, you must definitely hurry, what do you think of this opinion." ”
Zhang Shaoqing said: "Brother Ye, your opinion is very good, we are all looking for clues together, and it is indeed much slower." ”
Ye Ling said: "And let's all check together, there are many people and the target is also very large, it is easy to attract the attention of the person who steals the sword, as long as he separates to find clues, even if he notices, it is impossible for all of us to notice each of us!" ”
Zhang Shaoqing said: "Brother Ye, since everyone is going to be divided into two teams, how should we divide the team, and who is in the team to find out together." ”
Ye Ling thought for a while and said seriously: "Brother Zhang, you and Ouyang Rong, Yi Mingyi, Linghu Liu'er, and Li Yi are the first team, and then my sister and I, as well as Situ Jian, Situ Qing and his wife are in the second team. ”
Zhang Shaoqing said: "Yes, what about all of you? ”
The others responded, "Okay, according to what you two say." ”
Zhang Shaoqing thought about yesterday's quarrel, the two of them happened to be separated today, this was Ye Ling's deliberate separation, or was it really as providential as it happened.
It doesn't matter, whether he wants it or not, it's good for everyone to be separated like this.
For those who eat breakfast first, it is important to look for clues.
Ye Ling and his team ate first, and the five of them left the inn directly and went to the city to find clues to the Frost Sword.
After they just went out for a while, Zhang Shaoqing and the others also left the inn, and they had to look for every corner and street in the Sword Capital City.
Time passed minute by minute, unconsciously.
It's twelve o'clock in the afternoon.
I haven't found anything for a long time, and the entire Sword Capital City is so big, it is still very difficult to find traces of a person in this city.
At this time, in the Sword Capital City, there were several people in an inn, and in one of the rooms of this inn.
One of them spoke: "Elder Sword, the sword has been obtained by me, tell me about your plan and how to deal with this sword." ”
If the people of Sword Forgery Villa were here, they would definitely be surprised, because this sword was the Frost Sword they were looking for.
The middle-aged man with a cunning face leaked a smile full of satisfaction, and said: "Qinglong Protector, you are worthy of being the person favored by the pavilion master, and you always make people feel at ease and satisfy the pavilion master." ”
The Qinglong Dharma Protector said proudly: "Of course, don't look at who I am, one of the four protectors of the Divine Sword Pavilion." ”
Elder Sword smirked and said, "Qinglong Protector, you have done a good job in this matter, and the Pavilion Master will naturally reward you when you go back, so I'll talk about this plan below!" ”
The Green Dragon Protector responded: "Elder Sword, please tell us how to do and how to cooperate." ”
Immediately after, Elder Sword took out a book from his body and placed it directly on the table, with four words on it.
These four words are "five-character sword tricks"!
This is exactly a book of swordsmanship.
The Green Dragon Protector asked, "Elder Sword, is this the sword technique created by Zhang Yixia back then?" ”
Elder Sword smiled evilly and said, "Yes, do you want the Blue Dragon Protector?" ”
The face of the Green Dragon Protector changed, and he hurriedly explained: "Elder Sword, this is a bad word, I definitely can't ask for it!" How can I ask for the Pavilion Master's things? ”
Elder Sword said: "Don't panic about the Qinglong Protector, this is a fake five-character sword duel, and the pavilion master doesn't have it real, it's just a plan to use it." ”
The Green Dragon Protector was a little disappointed and said, "Elder Sword, you better tell us about your plan!" ”
Elder Sword said solemnly, "Listen, everyone, the plan is like this, a few of you are in the city tonight, trying to spread these words. ”
Elder Sword continued: "As soon as the five-character sword trick comes out, the rivers and lakes are invincible in the world, and the martial arts in the world are invincible, and I am the only one who is invincible.
"Tomorrow morning, I hope to hear these words, the five of you go down first to prepare, and I have something to say to the Green Dragon Protector."
The disciple of the Divine Sword Pavilion replied, "Yes, Elder Sword. ”
After the disciple left, Elder Sword turned to the Green Dragon Protector and said, "Green Dragon Protector, what the Pavilion Master asked you to inquire about, have you inquired clearly?" ”
The Green Dragon Protector replied, "Elder Sword, of course I have inquired clearly, and this is how things happened. ”
Time passed slowly, and the Green Dragon Protector had finished telling the ins and outs of the matter.
Hum!
Elder Sword snorted coldly: "The Four Great Villas also want to hold a martial arts conference and elect a new martial arts alliance leader, and they are not afraid of repeating the past and retreating, so that the events of the past will be staged again." ”
The Green Dragon Protector said, "Elder Sword, what do you need me to do now. ”
Elder Sword said, "Qinglong Protector, you don't need to do anything today, take a good rest, take care of your spirits, and I have something to do for you tomorrow morning." ”
Green Dragon Protector: "Alright! Oh, by the way, Elder Sword, when I got this sword that day, and I just entered the Sword Capital City, why did you take this sword to sit in the Chivalrous Restaurant? ”
Elder Sword smiled and said: "That day is already a step in the plan, otherwise how can the fish be hooked later, don't be angry with the Qinglong Protector, this is the order of the pavilion master, this plan has started since you first came to the Sword Capital City." ”
The Green Dragon Protector snorted coldly and said, "Since it was ordered by the Pavilion Master, then I, Qinglong, will not be angry, but Elder Sword hopes to notify me first if there is a plan next time, what if I don't go?" Isn't that a plan going to fail? ”
Elder Sword said, "Qinglong Protector, the next time you plan, if the Pavilion Master allows it, Elder Ben will definitely inform you first." ”
At this time, the people of the major mountain villas continued to look for clues one by one to find out the whereabouts of the Frost Sword.
It's just that they don't know that danger has come, and a vicious conspiracy has begun to act.
And what kind of ordeal will this conspiracy make these young people experience.
At this moment, the time has come to the afternoon, and Zhang Shaoqing's five-person team has been looking for most of the day, and everyone is hungry early.
In front of them, a restaurant appeared.
So, a group of five people walked towards the restaurant, and there were people coming and going in the restaurant, maybe there would really be clues.
As soon as the five of them walked into the restaurant, they walked in front of them and asked with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, are you drinking?" ”
Ouyang Rong scolded slightly: "There is no location, what kind of wine to drink, do you drink on the ground?" ”
Xiao Er hurriedly said carefully: "Guest officer, please calm your anger, don't be angry, there is a place upstairs, come upstairs, please." ”
Ouyang Rong may have been looking for so long, and she has walked so many ways, so she may naturally be in a bad mood.
The five of them came to the second floor and sat down, and Xiao Er asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, what kind of wine are you drinking?" ”
Zhang Shaoqing nodded: "Xiao Er, for the time being, let's have three catties of bamboo leaves, a plate of beef, and a plate of peanuts." ”
After a while, Xiao Er came up with a tray, put the tray on the table, and then took down the wine, beef, and peanuts one by one and put them on the table.
And said: "Ladies and gentlemen, please use it slowly, and please call me at any time if you need anything." ”
Seeing the wine and food on the table, Ouyang Rong said angrily: "Brother Shaoqing, do you really only order wine, what does this make me and Miss Linghu eat, you men know how to drink, don't you care about the two of us girls?" ”
Zhang Shaoqing said embarrassedly: "That little second, I'm here for two bowls of rice and two side dishes." ”
Xiao Er responded: "Okay, guest officer, please wait." ”
Zhang Shaoqing said to Ouyang Rong: "Rong'er, I was wrong, I forgot to give you two something to eat, can you forgive me." ”
A smile appeared on Ouyang Rong's face, and he said gently: "Brother Shaoqing, for the sake of seeing you admit your mistakes, Rong'er forgives you." ”
Zhang Shaoqing smiled and said, "Thank you Rong'er, next time Brother Shaoqing will never forget it." ”
Then, he said to Linghu Liu'er: "Linghu girl, I'm really sorry to forget to order your food." ”
Linghu Liu'er smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, you are too polite, I don't have much to do with it, it's a trivial matter." ”
While talking, Xiao Er also brought the meal to the table, the two girls ate, the three of them drank wine, and the relationship between them was one step closer to each other.
When Zhang Shaoqing was drinking, at a table not far from them, one of them said: "Did you see a person at noon yesterday, he was dressed very strangely, he couldn't see clearly wrapped all over his body, and he was holding a sword in his hand." ”
Another man immediately said, "Yes, I saw it too." ”
Yi Mingyi heard this next to him, and whispered to Zhang Shaoqing: "Senior brother, it's quite strange to dress like this in broad daylight, do you see if what they are talking about is that person." ”
Zhang Shaoqing said: "It should be possible, junior brother, you go over and inquire." ”
Yi Mingyi said, "Okay, senior brother. ”
As soon as Yi Mingyi got up and was about to go over to ask, the person at the table got up and left.
Yi Mingyi said quickly: "Senior brother, do you see if I want to catch up and ask." ”
Zhang Shaoqing said: "Senior brother, no need, wait for us to ask the shopkeeper of this restaurant." ”
After a while, the three men finished drinking, and the two girls had finished eating, so they went directly to the restaurant shopkeeper to ask the strange man.
