After the Qingming Festival on April 9, Lin Manliu and Ye Dangting bid farewell to everyone in the villa and prepared to leave for southern Xinjiang.

The next three days were not a long journey, and the two rushed to the boundary of Huangshan Mountain, during which the old liar and the short-shirted boy told about some recent events in the rivers and lakes, as well as mentioning the letter from his master in a teahouse, which was roughly to confirm his disciple with Ye Dangting again, presumably in late March.

"After counting the time, should it have come and be satisfied? Say hello to Mr. Mo on my behalf, and I regret that I can't talk to Mr. Mo when I am far away from home."

At that time, Ye Dang smiled and handed the letter to Lin Manliu, and the young man asked curiously, "Master can also play chess?" ”。

The old liar who was drinking tea on the side just raised his glass and blew the tea leaves floating in his bowl, without saying a word, and then drank all the tea in the bowl.

Lin Manliu understood the meaning, Ye Dang heard that he respected the master, if he could always talk to him about a few teas, now the situation was obviously a denial of his doubts, and then he remembered what the umbrella guest in the north pavilion of the city said that day.

The letters were consulted by him and others no less than three times, and the letter asked if there was another allusion, and the young man immediately stopped talking, and then in the process of hurrying, he only listened to the old liar tell about the local experience and customs and culture, and did not pursue the letter too much.

Today, the wind on the mountain road is stronger than in previous days, and the gusts of mountain wind are whistling, and the bitter and mournful meaning after the water stream rushing through the mountains and forests and the treetops are intertwined.

The two people traveling west found a wine shop to rest, and before they entered the table, they heard a shocking sound of slapping the table, as if they were about to smash the wine table.

Following the sound, it was the cloud that came to look at He Mu, only to see that the man was wearing a white scarf on his head and a vegetarian body, his eyes were red and he looked at Lin Manliu who had just arrived, and the young man in the short shirt looked at him and found that he was tied with a gray cloth bag tied to his back, which should be a spear that was cut off by himself.

Before the young man could continue to watch for a while, he heard He Mu roar and said: "Yesterday I was humiliated by the spearman, and today I want to see He Mou's jokes are not ......."

"The two of us just happened to pass by here on our way west, so we didn't mean to offend..."Lin Manliu apologized, if it weren't for the fact that he was dressed a little weird, he couldn't have let him speak so disrespectfully.

As if he hadn't heard anything, He Mu spat on the ground and continued to roar: "If you hadn't destroyed my spearmen, why would I have had to hide here and wear linen and filial piety, if I had a firearm, I would definitely be able to fight those thieves again!" How could Yunlaiguan be wiped out! His roar grew louder and louder, eventually turning into a hysterical rant.

The guests and Xiao Er in the wine shop were frightened by He Mu's roar and retreated, and in an instant, only three people were left in the entire wine shop to confront each other, and before Lin Manliu could continue to speak, Ye Dang kicked over the bench next to him, and He Mu, whose eyes were red, followed the voice and looked at the man in the yellow shirt.

"First of all, I don't know what happened to you Yunlaiguan and was killed, but there is one thing that you can't fight the enemy without the broken gun behind your back? Besides, do you think that you can destroy the power of your Yunlaiguan, can you, a junior who has not been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, be able to turn the tide" Ye Dang asked He Mu with a mocking smile on his face.

"If I have weapons, how can I not fight the enemy......" He Mu didn't know how to respond, and casually quibbled.

"Then you will take the Huang Lu in my hand, or the sword is not good, I will find a good gun for you, and you will save your master after you take it!" The man in the yellow shirt said a little more in his voice, and handed the long sword in his hand out to signal He Mu to catch it.

He Mu's hands trembled mockingly, and he was about to grab the broken gun behind him, but he was scolded by the old liar in the yellow shirt: "It's not that you are like a lost dog like you when you are in danger, no matter what way to find or do something, it is the most important thing to redeem and take revenge, if ordinary people provoke you today, do you still want to use your broken gun to stab people to death to vent your anger, and it is extremely wasteful."

After Ye Dang finished listening to the words, he entered a short silence, and the needle drop could be heard.

The young man in plain clothes finally didn't grab the broken gun behind him, and sat down on the ground in a gloomy manner, and began to cry with his head in his arms. It didn't take long for the sobbing sound to stop, He Mu staggered up, first looked at Lin Manliu, and then bowed down to Ye Dang and said, "Mr. Ye's teachings, He is toothless and unforgettable...".

After saying that, he apologized to the short-shirted young man with his fist, staggered out of the wine shop and walked to the back mountain road, and after getting away from the crowd, he pulled out the gray cloth bag behind him, took out two sections of the gun body, and held the tip of the gun with his left hand, and wrapped the gray cloth bag with the tail of the gun with his right hand and threw it out directly, so half of the gun body was discarded by He Mu beside the mountain road.

He used the rest of the cloth to tie the tip of the spear behind his back with a knot at the front and back of the spear, and went south alone.

Yunlai view, a small sect of rivers and lakes in Lingnan Road, is not a Taoist Taoist temple of knot Mao, the master of He Tian and a person with knives and guns can be regarded as a local generation of small masters to collect disciples to learn knife and gun skills, his brother He Ye is good at knife skills, and his son He Mu is also good at shading in the rivers and lakes. At the beginning of April of the sixth year of Shengyang, the door was wiped out, and the people who destroyed the door wrote in the square of Guannei that "the cholera people who colluded with the rebellious party should be punished".

He Mu, in July of the sixth year of Shengyang, a person with a gun to stop the thieves from rushing into battle, when he died, he was still alive with fourteen arrows in his body, and he stood on the ground with a broken gun behind him, and finally his head was cut off.

......

When the chaos in the wine shop stopped, the guests and Xiao Er came back one after another to sit down and watch the tea, Lin Manliu and Ye Dang heard that they found a place to sit down and rest, and they heard the people next to them start to whisper about what happened just now, and suddenly mentioned the matter of destroying the door.

After listening to a discussion for a while, the two of them realized what was going on, and during their hurry, a new organization appeared in the Lingnan area under the banner of "Our generation should punish the evil and slaughter the evil and restore the prosperity of the world", which was called the Slaughter of Evil Gate.

Including Yun Laiguan, he has already acted three times, all of them are some Jianghu sects, and all of them have been wiped out, and they will also write evidence of their crimes at the obvious place of the sect of extermination, so as to show everyone.

"This matter is not trivial, it is not realistic for us to go back and forth to Hangzhou, and there will be some action in southern Xinjiang, it seems that we have to take a detour to see the situation" Ye Dang said in a deep voice, only to see that his eyes were solemn, as if he had thought of something bad.

"These people will definitely not stop here, they will all be arranged by you," Lin Manliu immediately responded.

"Originally, we only had to bypass the boundary of Yuezhou, but then it seems that we would have to enter Jizhou first and then go to Hengzhou, where to see if we could inquire about anything," said the old liar after a moment's thought.

"Is that the old acquaintance of the owner you mentioned earlier?" The short-shirted boy asked suspiciously.

Hearing the word "old knowledge", Ye Dang smiled and nodded in affirmation, and then continued to drink tea.

After resting for a while, the two young men in short shirts continued to set off, but they deviated a little from the original direction, and prepared to make a detour to Jizhou. Along the way, there were fewer verbal conversations than before, and more time was spent on the two of them hurrying forward, only when they were feeding the horses water by the stream or walking at night.

In the night, the two horses galloped all the way to the stars and the moon, and continued to ride through the mountains and forests at night, only Ye Dangting held a torch in his hand to guide the lighting, Lin Manliu followed behind him and hurried together, and the young man looked at the yellow shirt back of the royal horse in front of him.

There are some similarities between him and the way the master sometimes speaks and some times the words he says, thinking about how he met the master at that time and feeling like two people in the story, he always listens to the training and applauds, but what he sees now is the master who seems to have come out of the mirror.
