The appearance of law enforcement elder Lu Zhang and others can be said to be a coincidence, but in fact, it is also an inevitability.

This place is close to the helm of the beggar gang, and there are many disciples of the beggar gang who come and go, and Gongye Qian, they chose to intercept and kill here, and they have the idea of a quick battle, and after a long time, they will definitely be bumped into by the people in the beggar gang.

Even if Lu Zhang doesn't come, he will definitely meet other people.

When Zhang Fang saw his own person appear, he withdrew the palm pressed on Ah Zi's back, and without waiting for the other party to ask, he concisely recounted the incident of his attack. Then, he ordered someone to bury the different corpses on the spot, and carried the comatose turmoil.

As for himself, a princess hugged the petite and weak Ah Zi in her arms, and took the lead in the direction of the main rudder.

After returning to the helm, it is time to deal with the aftermath of today's series of events.

The first is about Ah Zi's handling decision.

It is an indisputable fact that she almost poisoned Elder Wu and more than a dozen beggar gang disciples before. In this regard, Zhang Fang vaguely said that this matter is related to that Yanshanhe, but now is not the time to pursue these, and after the competition is over tomorrow, he will naturally give everyone a reasonable explanation.

Zhang Fang's reply naturally could not satisfy everyone.

Even if several elders on the helm side were on his side, after hearing such a reply, there were different voices, they hoped that Zhang Fang could explain the matter clearly now, so as not to make everyone suspicious.

At this time, the operation of buying people's hearts before Zhang Fang played its due role.

Just when the voice of doubt just sounded, Elder Wu Changfeng took the initiative to stand up, on behalf of the dozen or so poisoned beggar gang disciples, and took a firm stand in support of Zhang Fang.

Seeing Elder Wu come forward, the already not very loud voice of doubt was completely suppressed at once.

After all, people who have really been poisoned and suffered hardships say that it doesn't matter, and others naturally have no position to hold on to this matter. If they are really entangled, others will suspect that they are taking the opportunity to stir up trouble with the intention of influencing tomorrow's decisive battle.

This is a matter of stance and taking sides, and no one dares to make any more moths.

After pressing Ah Zi's matter, Zhang Fang simply stated his previous attack to the elders.

Not surprisingly. In this matter, "Yanshanhe" has a full alibi. During the time when Zhang Fang was attacked, in the name of visiting Elder Wu and others, he always talked with Elder Wu, Elder Xu, Elder Bai and others to discuss major affairs in the rivers and lakes.

These elders of the Helmsman faction instead became his alibi.

The elders of the chief helmsman have always felt that Yan Shanhe's abnormal behavior is very suspicious, but in the case that the other party has various rudders to help stand on the platform, the word "suspicious" is not enough to be a reason for them to attack Yan Shanhe.

In this regard, Zhang Fang's reply is still the same: "After tomorrow's competition is over, everything will naturally fall into place." ”

……

Early the next morning, outside Luoyang City, on an open square inside the helm of the beggar gang.

At this time, the surroundings of the square were already crowded with ragged beggar disciples, among which near the center were a group of elders in the Luoyang general rudder, and the helmsmen of the six major rudders of Daren, Dazhi, Dayi, Daxin, Dali, and Dayong were separated from each other, concealing the trend of rebellion in the court.

Among them, Xue Muhua, as a special guest of this competition, stood side by side with the elders of the chief helm, as if he was standing on the side of Zhang Fang's supporters.

In this regard, although the rudder owners were dissatisfied, they did not dare to look at him hostilely.

After all, the status of doctors in the rivers and lakes is too special, especially a generation of miracle doctors like Xue Muhua. No one dares to guarantee that one day it will come to him. Therefore, as long as he does not make it clear that the carriage and horses want to interfere in the internal affairs of the beggar gang, no one will write this dissatisfaction on their faces without interest.

At this time, the crowd of onlookers on both sides suddenly separated to the left and right, leaving two three-meter-wide passages leading straight to the center of the square. On either side of the passage, two masked men walked in slowly.

One of them was wearing a purple gown and a pitch-black metal mask on his face, which was faintly red in the early morning sun, looking extremely mysterious and majestic.

The other is dressed in a red and white scholar's outfit, looking like a boy who came out of a high-level courtyard, with a white iron mask on his face, which looks particularly dazzling in the morning light, but compared to the black mask opposite, it can't help but make people feel a little lacking in a sense of heaviness.

These two people are naturally the protagonists of today's martial arts competition, Zhang Fang and Yan Shanhe.

And Yan Shanhe's lost impression points on the mask were recovered from his entourage. After all, Yan Qingyun, who was following closely behind him, was a master of the rivers and lakes whose martial arts were no less than those of the beggar gang and the Dharma Protector Elders, and he didn't know how much stronger than the ordinary gang members around Zhang Fang who were responsible for lifting the shield.

In this regard, Zhang Fang was also very helpless.

If it weren't for Ah Zi's injuries that hadn't healed, how could Yan Qingyun be allowed to steal the limelight?

After thinking about it, the four of them had already come to the periphery of the battle circle. At this time, Yan Qingyun and the beggar gang disciples who carried the shield for Zhang Fang each stopped, and Zhang Fang took the shield from the latter casually and walked into the battle circle at the same time as Yan Shanhe.

The two of them were in the same pace, at the same speed, as if they had been rehearsed countless times before, and each stopped three meters from the core of the battlefield.

Yan Shanhe's gaze fell on the round shield in Zhang Fang's hand, and he couldn't help but be slightly surprised: "Elder You's weapon seems to be seriously worn, won't it really affect your strength?" If necessary, you can wait a few more days and let Elder You repair the shield. ”

Hearing Yan Shanhe's words, the eyes of everyone present couldn't help but fall on the round shield in Zhang Fang's hand. However, I saw that the originally smooth and clean shield surface was now covered with scratches of different lengths and depths, criss-crossing and criss-crossing, making the fierce god pattern carved on it even more hideous.

These traces were all left by the collision with the famous sword snow in the battle in the dense forest yesterday.

Being mentioned by Yan Shanhe at this moment will inevitably give people the illusion that You Tanzhi is tired and indescribable, making those who originally supported him invisibly weak in terms of momentum.

When Zhang Fang heard this, he shook his head lightly and said: "These traces are all left during the bloody battle with the enemies of the beggar gang, and they are also the testimony of the birth and death of my beggar gang for the country and the people, how can they be easily repaired and erased?" Horizontal and vertical will not affect you and me in today's battle, Elder Yan doesn't have to care. ”

Zhang responded quietly, not only defining Gusu Murong as the enemy of the beggar gang, but also taking the opportunity to link these scratches with his own merits and the loyalty of the beggar gang, which immediately aroused the blood of many people.

As soon as the words fell, a chorus of echo rang out around them.

Seeing that his provocation was not only easily resolved by Zhang Fang, but also became a bargaining chip for him to buy people's hearts, Yan Shanhe's eyes flashed with a murderous opportunity, and then he slashed the sword in his hand and said in a deep voice: "In this case, please Elder You for advice!" ”

"Good!"

Just when the two of them were in their own posture and ready to make a move, directly south of the battlefield, behind the crowd of spectators, a woman's shout suddenly came: "Wait!" ”

Hearing this, the two of them moved at the same time.

By this time, the crowd on that side had already separated.

A beautiful woman dressed in black, accompanied by two maids, slowly entered the arena. After coming to Zhang Fang and Yan Shanhe, he bowed to the two of them first, and then said, "The surviving Ma clan has seen two elders. ”

Taking the liberty of disturbing the two elders in a martial arts competition, the little woman felt deeply guilty. It's just that before the two of you do it, I still have one thing to ask for, and I hope the two elders can answer. ”

The person who came was none other than one of the two most capable people in the beggar gang, Kang Min, the widow of the former deputy gang leader Ma Dayuan.

This woman, together with Quan Guanqing, led the beggar gang coup d'état in the apricot forest, if Quan Guanqing is a-stirring stick, then she ...... Ahem, I don't describe it, it's a bit buried.

Although he despised this person in his heart, Zhang Fang still pretended to be very polite on the surface, and asked, "I don't know what Mrs. Ma is asking for?" ”

At this time, a maid who followed Mrs. Ma came forward with a tray, and there was a wine jug and three cups on the plate.

But he saw that Mrs. Nama picked up the wine jug unhurriedly, filled each of the three cups, and handed two of them to Zhang Fang and Yan Shanhe, while she picked up the last cup and raised her hands flat: "It has been two years since the murder of the deceased husband at this moment, but the murderer of the deceased husband is still at large. ”

"The little woman has shallow knowledge, and she can't tell whether Qiao Feng is a murderer or not."

"But no matter who the murderer is, the little woman hopes that no matter which of the two elders wins, she will be able to pursue the matter with all her strength after becoming the leader of the gang, and give justice to my poor deceased husband."

That's a beautiful thing to say!

It seems that today's wine can't be drunk at all.

Merely......

Zhang Fang glanced at the wine glass in his hand.

Why does this wine look a little muddy?
