Chapter 33: Antecedents and Consequences

Ye Suiyun said in his heart: "This person entered through the window and didn't light the lamp, is he a thief?" Before he could think about it, he lifted a few more tiles, widened the gap, and jumped lightly into the house, falling behind the thief-like man in black.

The man in black walked for a while, turned left for a while, and then turned right after walking for a while, and the route seemed to be clear and clear, as if he was very familiar with the layout of the room, and did not seem to be panicking. Finally in front of a room, he gently pushed the door open and dodged inside. In the moonlight, I saw a young girl with her limbs tied and leaning on the side of the bed, it was Tang Xiao, who had been missing for a long time, and she was looking at the man in black who walked in at a loss.

The man in black was very anxious, took out the dagger from his boots, walked over and waved it with one hand, only to hear two clicks to cut all the ropes of Tang Xiao's hands and feet, the technique was very clean and neat, and it would not hurt the flesh and skin. Tang Xiao almost couldn't help but shout hello. Although she is young, because of her special status, she is well-informed, and she has seen many martial arts masters. The kung fu of the man in black seems simple, but it contains extremely deep martial arts cultivation, regardless of strength, vision, and stability, he is a first-class master, and he is not even inferior to his senior brother Qi Yufeng.

I only heard the man in black whisper: "Don't make a sound, I'll save you, follow me." "I didn't have time to explain more, I turned around and was about to go out.

It didn't matter if he turned around, he only scared the man in black and almost screamed, and at the door of the house, a person stood with his back and stood fixedly. Because there was no light around, I could only see the figure of the man motionless. Although he couldn't see his eyes, the man in black could feel that the other party was staring straight at him.

The black-clothed people were horrified and inexplicable, and secretly thought: "I was careful along the way, how could this person follow me here without me knowing." He was too nervous now, his heart was beating wildly, and he knew that no matter who the other party was, as long as he shouted out, his life and that of this girl would be explained here. The long sword at his waist was already unsheathed, and it stabbed at the person standing at the door with a thunderous force, and he was bound to kill him with a sword, and he would never be allowed to speak out.

Between the lightning and flint, the tip of the sword has reached the tip of the opponent's nose, and it is about to pierce the person's head with a sword, saying that it is too late and that is fast, the person who was still standing there motionless just now, the palm of his left hand is slightly supported to the sky, just on the sword body, the arm stabbed out by the man in black involuntarily raised three inches, and it was these three inches that made the tip of the sword deviate and slashed past the opponent's face.

Because the man in black used all his strength this time, after stabbing into the air, his body couldn't control it, and he crashed straight towards the enemy, and the other party was already within the range of the long sword, and it was difficult to dodge. The man in black felt that the three big acupoints on his body were slightly numb at the same time, and his whole body was stiff, he knew that he was pointed at the acupoints by the other party, and he thought that this person's martial arts were much higher than his own, and it seemed that this time he was kind enough to save people, but even he got in.

And Tang Xiao, who had just stood up, saw the scene in front of him, and said with joy: "Brother Ye family, you are late." ”

It turned out that this person was Ye Suiyun, he secretly followed the man in black here, his breath was depressed along the way, and his steps were extremely light, which was a very unique use of Qiuyu internal strength 'turtle breath'. Even a master like the man in black didn't notice it at all. And Tang Xiao has long been deeply impressed by Ye Suiyun's body movements, and the most important thing is that she always hopes that he will come, at this time, a scene suddenly appears, no wonder her first reaction is Ye Suiyun.

Ye Suiyun approached the man in black and looked at it carefully, as expected, it was the person who sent Steward Feng out just now. Although the man in black couldn't move, what was revealed in his eyes was not fear, but anxiety. Ye Suiyun thought about the whole thing, his mind moved, and he blurted out, "Are you Fang Qingya?" ”

Although the man in black couldn't speak, his face was full of surprise after hearing Ye Suiyun's question. Ye Suiyun wasn't sure at first, he just guessed casually, and when he saw the reaction of the man in black, he knew that he had guessed correctly.

Ye Suiyun connected the dots with both hands, solved the other party's acupoints, and said happily: "Brother Fang, I finally saw you." There are many offenses in the right talents, and I am also here to save people. ”

The man nodded, still asking strangely, "Who are you and how do you know me?" This is tantamount to admitting that he is Fang Qingya.

Ye Suiyun was about to speak, but Fang Qingya stretched out his hand and interrupted: "You can't stay here for a long time, let's talk about it when you go out." ”

Ye Suiyun also nodded in agreement, and followed Fang Qingya with Tang Xiao to flash out, the three of them stopped and walked, and after a while, they walked out of the gambling house through a small side door in the courtyard. Coming to a wood, Ye Suiyun smiled at Tang and said, "Miss Tang, this place is very dangerous, please go back to Tiandu Town first, and I will go to meet them with Daqi and come to look for you." ”

Tang Xiao reluctantly said, "Why do you need me to go first, why can't I go with you to find Senior Brother Qi?" ”

Ye Suiyun hurriedly explained: "Da Qi and Yun Qing don't know that you have escaped, and they are still restraining them in the gambling house at the moment, but that gang of bad guys has already targeted them, I'm afraid it will be very dangerous for a while." You leave first, and I'll save them, and there will be no worries. ”

Tang Xiao realized that it was not a joke, and thought for a while: "Why don't I go back to the Cardinal Sect camp first and wait, where are there still many sick people." ”

Ye Suiyun shook his head and said, "No, there is no one there for a long time." And judging by what they said, the Cardinals are their gang. Tang Xiao was surprised, Ye Suiyun raised his head and shouted, "Miss Xiao, please go with Miss Tang." ”

A figure jumped down from the tree, it was Xiao Ning'er. It turned out that after Ye Suiyun and the others left the Bai family, she was told by her uncle Gao Jiangting that if Ye Suiyun wanted this water to save people, it should be in the Cardinal Sect camp, and if it was in the Cardinal Sect camp, then they might be in trouble. Therefore, Xiao Ning'er followed, but the red-clothed camp was already empty, and she used the method of tracking to find footprints as soon as she came to Fengxiang Gambling House, and saw that the three of them were sneaking out not far away.

Xiao Ning'er wasn't sure who the few people were, so she hid in a tree. Jump from tree to tree and follow them quietly. Ye Suiyun's skills were already much deeper than her, and in the dead of night, she had already heard the movement. Judging from his body and breathing, he knew that it was Xiao Ning'er who had just made a move with him. Ye Suiyun knew that her swordsmanship was strong, and it was most appropriate for her to protect Tang Xiao.

Xiao Ning'er was found to be very tasteless, and said, "Although I don't know why you didn't call me to go with me, I believe you can handle it." He smiled at Tang again: "Sister of the Tang family, let's go." ”

Tang Xiao was worried when Ye Suiyun said it, especially for Ye Suiyun, he didn't understand why, but he couldn't say it, and he couldn't help but hesitate.

Ye Suiyun thought that she was worried about her senior brother and sister, so she patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, with me, Miss Yunqing and Daqi will be safe and stable, you go to a safe place first, so that the fewer people there are, the better it is to escape." ”

The so-called bystanders are clear, but Xiao Ning'er saw one or two, and whispered in Tang Xiao's ear: "You also know his ability, don't worry, he will come back in a while, don't be reluctant." ”

The words only made Tang Xiao's face redden, and he didn't dare to raise his head. Fortunately, the night was dark and no one else could see it, otherwise I really don't know what to do.

Xiao Ning'er said: "We are waiting at the Bai family, it is safe there, and no one can think of it." Ye Suiyun was overjoyed, and even said very well.

After the two girls left, Ye Suiyun hurried up and roughly told him the rumors he had heard, Fang Qingya was surprised: "I overheard Yang Chengbi and them outside the door just now, are you the Ye Suiyun they said?" No wonder it's so good. To be honest, apart from my mentor and uncle, I haven't seen anyone with your skills. ”

Ye Suiyun looked carefully at this time, Fang Qingya was very tall, with thick eyebrows and a long face, looking honest and honest, and his age was probably seven or eight years older than himself. There was a sadness in his eyes that did not match his face.

Ye Suiyun said: "Brother Fang, you don't have to praise me, in all fairness, I will defeat you in one move, just now it was because you were too anxious and desperate to make a sword, I took advantage of it, but I was in a stable mood and waited for work, which can win by surprise." ”

Fang Qingya smiled bitterly: "I also know that it is taboo to practice martial arts without knowing how to make moves, but at that time, how could I have thought that you would not be covered by my sword wind." He sighed.

Ye Suiyun didn't want to say more about it, and asked: "Brother Fang, I know that you must have something very important to stay in the gambling house as a thug, Ye Suiyun is not talented, and I am willing to help you with all my might." ”

Fang Qingya looked at Ye Suiyun, groaned slightly, and nodded: "After knowing what happened to Junshan, I can trust you, and you have come here from far away, just to help my Pure Yang Sect." I won't hide it from you, do you know that there is a place called Yuquan Villa not far from here? Ye Suiyun shook his head blankly, didn't answer, and waited for the other party to continue.

Fang Qingya said: "The owner of this Yuquan Villa is called Gao Tianhe, more than 20 years ago, he was a famous benevolent and righteous person in the rivers and lakes, it is said that he helped the poor everywhere, gave money extensively, and had an excellent reputation. Back then, the rebellion of Empress Wei involved my master Xie Yunliu, and the court wanted to arrest him, and at that time, in order to help my master dodge, Master Lu thought of Gao Tianhe, a good man in the world. The ancestor wrote a letter at that time, explaining the cause and effect, hoping that the master of Gao Zhuang could take in my master for a while, so that the government could not find him, and the Chunyang Quan faction could deduce that my master had escaped and disappeared. After a few years, the rumors are not so nervous, and then let the master return to the sect. Ye Suiyun's palms were damp when he heard this, and he had a premonition that the key to the difficulty of pure yang was here.

Fang Qingya continued: "But then there was a misunderstanding, which caused my master to injure his master and escape from Huashan. ”

Ye Suiyun couldn't help but ask, "Do you know what the misunderstanding is and how it happened?" ”

Fang Qingya smiled bitterly again: "Originally, the disciples of our generation were never told the inside story, probably because I was the only disciple left by the master on the mountain, and the master uncle saw that I was excluded by my fellow disciples, and told me the truth in a deep conversation. Ye Suiyun sighed, Fang Qingya said the key: "At that time, the imperial court issued an arrest order to the Chunyang faction, and in order to protect my master, the ancestor wanted to send him to Yuquan Villa to hide himself, and the letter was also sent over, and then he was ready to convene six disciples to explain the matter. It was at this time that my master had just walked outside the door, and after he heard this, he decided that his master was going to betray him, so he was resentful, and it was a big mistake later. Ye Suiyun suddenly realized at this time, it turned out that this was the case

Fang Qingya's face showed a sad look, and he sighed happily: "Actually, what Master Lu said at that time meant that a top master like my master was famous and famous in the rivers and lakes, and when he learned that he was going to be forced to hide as if he couldn't see the light, I was afraid that his arrogant temperament would be difficult to accept, and my master completely misunderstood." But things in the world are so incredible, and often the slightest difference between the bad and the wrong can change the whole thing. Ye Suiyun couldn't help nodding, he really felt this way from what he had encountered over the years.

Fang Qingya raised his head and said, "Actually, I heard the news that Master was coming back a year ago, not to mention how happy I was at that time. I didn't think I'd ever see him again in my life. Speaking of this, Fang Qingya's voice couldn't help but be a little hoarse.

Ye Suiyun listened to what Yan Wuwu said, knowing that Fang Qingya regarded Master Xie Yunliu as his father in his heart, he couldn't help but be moved in his heart, thinking of his life experience, he was a little envious of Fang Qingya, at least he could still see a master like his father.

Fang Qingya continued: "But I figured it out later, Master's return this time is by no means simple, I'm afraid that he wants to return to Chunyang to take revenge, no matter where there is damage, I don't want it to happen." Later, I thought that if I wanted Master to dispel the idea of revenge, he had to know that what happened back then was all a misunderstanding. And I know that he has great respect for Master Lu in his heart. ”

Ye Suiyun nodded and said: "Yes, although I haven't seen the Venerable Master, but I think that since people with martial arts to that level must have a different temperament from ordinary people, the things that such people have identified cannot be persuaded by a few simple words." ”

Fang Qingya's voice raised, and there seemed to be a light flashing in his eyes: "You are right, so I know that in order to persuade my master, you must not rely on just a few words, you must provide strong evidence, and I have already found this evidence." ”

Ye Suiyun was also in good spirits, and hurriedly asked, "What is it?" ”

Fang Qingya said: "It's the letter that Master Lu wrote to Gao Tianhe back then. The handwriting on it and the age of the paper are absolutely impossible to fake, and a smart person like my master can understand it at a glance. ”

Ye Suiyun suddenly brightened up, and said happily: "Yes, yes, that letter is the key." He said strangely: "Then why are you here, it is better to go directly to that Gao Zhuang master." ”

Fang Qingya sneered and said, "Hmph, how can it be so easy. This Gao Tianhe is a righteous man and gentleman on the surface, but in fact he is a shameless and despicable villain. Ye Suiyun was taken aback, not knowing why he said that.

Fang Qingya said: "After the incident of my master injuring my ancestor back then, it immediately spread all over the rivers and lakes, and my master hid everywhere, and no one dared to believe it. And the matter is too big, and the Pure Yang Sect doesn't dare to look for a master on the rivers and lakes to make too much movement, so there has been no way for my master to understand the truth. It is rumored on the rivers and lakes that Xie Yunliu deceived his teacher and destroyed his ancestors, and people and gods were angry. The entire martial arts group rose up and killed it. Speaking of this, Fang Qingya stopped, gasping for breath, as if to soothe the anger in his heart. Ye Suiyun understood in his heart and listened quietly.

After his emotions calmed down, Fang Qingya continued: "But others don't know the whole story, doesn't he Gao Tianhe still know?" You must know that he had already received a letter from his master at that time, as long as he came out to say a word, or took out the letter, the misunderstanding might be solved. Ye Suiyun continued: "That's right." Fang Qingya said angrily: "But this old bastard didn't know why, he didn't say a word, just like that, my master was forced to flee from Middle-earth, and he didn't know where to go." ”

Ye Suiyun was stunned and asked, "If Gao Tianhe is such a person, then how do you know that he didn't destroy the letter, isn't it better for him to harm people like this?"

Fang Qingya nodded and said, "I thought so too, but later I learned that he couldn't help but not destroy this letter, and carefully kept it, I don't know why he did it." But I think there must be some ulterior motive in it. ”

Ye Suiyun nodded and asked, "Then what does this have to do with Fengxiang Gambling Bank?" ”

Fang Qingya said: "After I tried my best to inquire, I learned that Gao Tianhe heard that my master had returned to the Central Plains, and he was afraid that the letter would be lost. And his ability is not enough to keep this thing, so he handed over the letter to Yang Chengbi of Fengxiang Gambling House for safekeeping more than half a year ago. It is impossible for an idle person to come and steal a letter. ”

Ye Suiyun finally understood the consequences at this time, and said: "It turns out that Gao Tianhe and Yang Chengbi are the same nostrils, and they are not good people. ”

Fang Qingya nodded and said, "That's why I tried my best to sneak into the gambling house, just to wait for an opportunity to steal this letter." And sometimes when I saw some poor people who were persecuted by the gambling house, I took the opportunity to help them, but in order not to arouse Yang Chengbi's suspicion, I had to hide these people. ”

Ye Suiyun had been thinking about a question in his heart just now, and finally couldn't help but ask at this time: "Brother Fang, the news that the respected master has returned to the Central Plains and the letter has not been destroyed are extremely confidential, I believe that few people in the rivers and lakes know, like a famous family like the Hidden Sword Villa, I overheard it once, and they only learned about it a few months ago, how could you know about it more than a year ago?" ”

Fang Qingya said thoughtfully: "All this news was told to me by a mysterious person, this person always wears an iron mask, and I have never seen his face. But I absolutely believe what he says. ”

Ye Suiyunqi said: "Why? ”

Fang Qingya said: "Because he is a member of the Hidden Yuan Society." ”
