The Bai family secretly sent a letter, saying that the four money guards had acted, and the direction they went was not Jiulianzhai.

Li Fenglan hurriedly called Jade, and the two quietly followed.

…

The situation in Poyang Lake has been settled, and now the entire Poyang Lake underworld is Jiulian Village. However, this "final say" is discounted, after a few big battles, Jiulianzhai has also suffered heavy losses, and in the next two or three years, it is impossible for them to set off any waves. If other water villages take advantage of this time to rise, it will be difficult for Jiulian Village to stop.

Wei Yang asked the six masters of Shuizhai to hold a small sampan, and the two of them walked through the layers of reeds, not knowing where to go.

Usually Wei Yang doesn't go out, and even if he goes out, he will bring a few of his subordinates, but this time he only brought six masters when he went out.

Jiulian Zhai Liu's sixth master is called Chen Liu'er, his father was a good brother of the former village owner, and in a fight with other water villages, in order to protect the old village owner, he unfortunately died. The old village owner had no children and no daughters, so he always raised him as his own son, and promoted him to be the sixth master at a young age.

"Uncle Wei," Chen Liu'er asked as she propped up the boat, "Where are we going?"

Wei Yang sighed, "Go see the old village master."

"Oh," Chen Liu'er whispered, "Go to the grave."

Wei Yang shook his head: "No."

"Not going to the grave? So where are we going?"

"I said, let's go see the old village owner."

"Uncle, I didn't understand what you said."

"Let me ask you, what's wrong with the old villager?"

Chen Liu'er was even more confused: "The old village owner is gone, he died of a serious illness a few years ago, doesn't this big guy know?"

"Then let me ask you again, what is the name of the old village owner?"

"Jiang Dahe."

"Let me ask you again, when did the old village master establish the Jiulian Village?"

"No, uncle, what are you asking me for? This big guy knows it, eighteen years ago."

Wei Yang shook his head and sighed again, "It's time to tell you the truth today."

"What do you mean?"

"Sixth son, the old village owner is not called Jiang Dahe."

"What's that called?"

"Xu Zhenbiao."

Chen Liu'er frowned: "Xu Zhenbiao?"

Wei Yang nodded: "You are young, you haven't heard of anything before. When the old owner was young, he was still famous in the rivers and lakes, and he was chivalrous and righteous all his life, at least he was very popular. He was born on the shore of Poyang Lake, and his family made a living from fishing. Until one day, his parents met water bandits while fishing, and those water bandits would not embarrass them ordinary people. But it happened that day, the bandits went out to hunt for food and did not get anything, and when they went back, they happened to meet his parents, and the bandits who were in a bad mood killed his parents."

Chen Liu'er was a little surprised: "And then? Has the old village owner taken revenge?"

Wei Yang shook his head: "The old village owner was only eleven or twelve years old that year, and it was a problem to support himself, so how could he talk about revenge? However, it is precisely because of this incident that the old village owner hates the water bandits. After that, he resolutely stepped into the rivers and lakes, visited famous artists, and learned martial arts. When he wanted to return to Poyang Lake to take revenge, he found that he couldn't fight against so many water bandits with one person. Then the old village owner made a decision, he wanted to unify the Poyang Lake water bandits, and become the chief scoop of the 18th Road Water Village, so that these water bandits would never do anything about robbing houses and houses in the future."

Chen Liu'er scratched the back of her head: "That's what you said, but over the years, we have not done much to rob the house." When the old owner was here, he didn't do less."

"Hey......" Wei Yang sighed again, "This is the helplessness of the old village owner, water bandits are water bandits after all, and their nature is difficult to change. In the first few years, he was very energetic, but the more time passed, he found it more difficult to manage these bandits, and the people gradually became depressed. You Uncle Wei and I, Shaolin lay disciples, have good kung fu in hand, but they were infected by the pride of the old village owner, so I promised to work with him to achieve this. Of course, your father is also in trouble."

"Then why did the old village owner change his name to Jiang Dahe?"

"Dry water bandits are not a serious livelihood, let alone ...... What's more, some cause and effect were tainted by some things back then

。 In those years, the owner of the old village has always claimed to return to Poyang Lake to live in seclusion, but in fact, he changed his name to Jiang Dahe and established Jiulian Village...... Then, it's fake."

"Fake Death?!" This shocked Chen Liu'er.

Wei Yang said dissatisfiedly, "Be quiet! I'm afraid that others won't hear it! …… Hey, I just told you to be wary of the God of Golden Wealth, but I didn't tell you why you should be vigilant."

"yes, I can't figure it out either. We are in Poyang Lake, he is in Chang'an, what is the intersection?"

"Boy, you need money to do big things, and the money that the old village owner set up the water village borrowed from the God of Wealth. It's a pity that the money can't be repaid, and the God of Wealth is one of the few people who knows his hidden identity. The God of Wealth was very stingy, and he hadn't come to ask for accounts for so many years before, so I felt that something was wrong at that time. Who knew that even today, he would still come to the door."

After speaking, Wei Yang smiled, his smile a little bitter.

"Then why are you looking for it now?"

"Have you heard of the Idler's Hall in this time?"

"I've heard of it, isn't it just the remnants of Changfeng Tower? I heard that the little girls they sent out are all beautiful, if I meet them in Poyang Lake, I will catch one of them and come back as a wife."

Wei Yang said dissatisfiedly, "To be serious, the cause and effect of the old village owner is related to Changfeng Tower. Jin Caishen came to ask for money at this time, and it was clear that he was afraid that the old village owner would have an accident and make this debt a bad debt. This old boy must have betrayed the old villager, but I guess he didn't reveal much. In order to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, force us to repay the money, if we don't pay it back...... He may tell the idlers about the events of the past."

"Shall we pay it back?"

"Pay back? You said it easily, twenty thousand taels! What in exchange?"

Chen Liu'er was speechless, she had never seen so much money when she was so big.

"I'm telling you this because you are your own person in the entire water village...... Later, when I meet the old village owner, I will be mentally prepared."

"Oh, uncle, I know."

…

Li Fenglan and Jade followed the boat in front of them from a distance until they came ashore.

The four people were wearing ordinary clothes, and they couldn't tell that they were from the rivers and lakes.

This is an isolated island in the water, about 100 meters away from the mainland, the area is very small, and the island is surrounded by lush reeds, which are just hidden. The two sisters parked the boat in the reeds and observed the four men through the cracks in the reeds. Soon after the four men had reached the island, the two sisters had gone up as well.

The island is so small that there are few trees, and it takes a lot of effort to hide. The two of them couldn't figure out what they were doing in a place where birds don't. As soon as he had this thought, he saw Qian Wei, who was the leader, walked in front of a boulder and pushed the boulder away, only to see that there was a well-hidden hole under the boulder.

One person was left to defend the retreat, and the other three went down the cave.

Li Fenglan asked Jade in a low voice, "Can you quietly stun this person?"

Jade nodded, "Don't move here."

Emerald moved her body quickly, quietly circling behind. The money guard who was left behind was very alert, and even though the jade body was exquisite, he still heard the footsteps. It's a pity that before he could turn around, Jade had already made a quick move, and a strong internal force burst out from his fingertips, and Qian Wei fainted without even seeing Jade's face.

Li Fenglan ran over: "Jade, I'll go down, you guard outside."

Jade shook her head: "I don't feel at ease if you go down alone."

"Then you go down."

"What would you do if someone came? Can you beat someone?"

"So what do you say?"

"Let's go down together."

It was a stupid proposition, and of course, Jade knew it was stupid, and that's what she said.

Who knew that Li Fenglan smiled slightly: "Jade, go."

As she spoke, Li Fenglan picked up the jade and jumped into the cave.

As soon as they jumped into the cave, the two heard the sound of a fight in front of them. Walking along the dark and damp tunnel, it was not until they saw the light of the fire that the two stopped and leaned against the cave wall to observe the situation ahead.

Not far ahead is one

It's a pretty large space, almost the size of four rooms, and it's a natural formation. There are torches stuck in the walls of the cave, which are brighter.

Five people fought together, three were Qian Wei, and the remaining two of them had met in Jiulian Village. One of them is Wei Yang, the owner of Jiulian Village, and the rest of the sloppy young man seems to be a few masters.

The battle was a bit fierce, and the young man looked at his poor appearance, but his kung fu was not bad. Wei Yang's martial arts are the number of Shaolin's roads, which are open and close, and they are quite imposing. Although the four Qian Wei were also good at kung fu, they couldn't help the two in front of them for a while, three against two, and it was a tie.

Jade whispered, "Shall we just watch?"

"Sandpipers compete with fishermen for profit."

This insistent situation didn't last a stick of incense, and the money guards suddenly glanced at each other, and while their backs were to the other hole, the three of them turned around in unison and ran towards the hole. Wei Yang was shocked and hurriedly caught up.

Li Fenglan and Jade also quietly followed.

After passing through a damp, narrow tunnel, walking for twenty or thirty meters, he stopped in front of a wider cave.

The cave is brighter than the outside, and there are tables, chairs and benches, so it seems that someone has lived here for a long time.

The two sisters bent their waists at the entrance of the cave, quietly observing the situation inside.

The surprise is: they don't fight, they just confront. Not far from them, there was a bed covered with a thick futon, and a white-haired old man in thin clothes sat on the bed. He wasn't well and was coughing all the time.

After being silent for a long time, the old man finally stopped coughing, and he said, "Okay, there's no need to fight and kill. Don't even stand still, find a place to sit by yourself, aren't you tired of standing?" But no one moved.

From the voice, it could be heard that the old man was lacking in qi, and it seemed that he was infected with some kind of disease.

Qian Wei, who had a square face, said, "Senior Xu, let's not say polite words, I believe you understand the purpose of our coming here."

The old man smiled bitterly, "Understood...... I understand it so much."

"Now that you know in your heart, you give a happy word, this money, pay it back, or not?"

Wei Yang flicked his sleeves and said loudly, "Why don't you ask for debts above board?!" What kind of hero is sneaky?!"

"Hmph," Qian Wei sneered, "A few years ago, my predecessor cheated to death, and it was clear that he wanted to repay the debt. If we hadn't found the hiding place of our predecessors, the money would have been lost."

Wei Yang wanted to say something, but the old man waved his hand to stop him: "More than ten years ago, I paid some back one after another, at least 10,000 taels, right?"

"Twelve thousand taels, eight thousand taels is still missing."

"Yes, it's eight thousand...... Hehehe...... You boys, you have been sold, and they are only worth eight thousand taels."

"What do you mean by that?"

The old man sat cross-legged on the bed, smoothed his breathing, and said, "This is a bureau, I heard about the incident on the lake a few days ago, what kind of ghost valley pie...... It was Changfeng Lou who was behind it, and they finally found me. Your real purpose is not to ask for accounts."

The leader Qian Wei was puzzled: "What do you mean by that?"

"Hey...... You don't even know it, you've been calculated."

Hearing this, Jade frowned and whispered, "How do you play dumb riddles? Is it bad to say something directly? Otherwise, I'll just arrest him, why ...... to do this."

Jade stopped talking halfway, Li Fenglan knew what Jade had discovered, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Emerald pointed to the top of her head, "Listen."

Li Fenglan closed her eyes and listened carefully, there seemed to be only the voice of the old man talking in the space, no, what other sound, it seemed that something was taut...... The sound of a bowstring pulling!

Li Fenglan opened her eyes suddenly, and shouted at the few people in the cave, "Be careful!"

Her caution seemed to have triggered some kind of mechanism, and in an instant, countless arrows were shot from all directions, and the target was the six people in the cave.

Li Fenglan's shout was successfully startled

The people in the cave, they also saw the arrows coming from all directions, and began to dodge in a panic. Jade pressed Li Fenglan to the ground, pulled out her long sword and began to be on guard.

Li Fenglan didn't expect Jade's movements, and almost fell to the ground.

The rain of arrows only lasted for a moment, and Qian Wei, Wei Yang, and the young man in the cave were not injured.

However, the old man on the bed was pierced into a hedgehog by the rain of arrows. The old man seemed to have anticipated this outcome, and with a relieved smile on his face, he had long since lost his voice.

Above their heads, between the cracks in the rocks with their fangs, there was a sound of tossing and moving. The archers who cast their arrows seem to be retreating.
