"Yes. It's the Black Dragon Gate. ”

"Jurchen?" Zheng Hengzhou frowned. "Needless to say, it's for the Dragon Descending God Palm?"

"Exactly." Fan Shihao said. "The Black Dragon Sect sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that the Dragon Gang Master is in their hands, and they want us to hand over the Secret Seal of the Dragon Descending God. It is expected that they originally kidnapped the Dragon Gang Leader in order to force him to hand over the atlas. The leader of the Dragon Gang swore not to pay to the death, so he hit us with the idea. Thinking about the torture that the Dragon Gang Leader has suffered in the past month, it is difficult to say whether he is alive or dead at this moment. ”

He sighed, and then said: "I sent someone to reply, saying that the atlas is not with me, and it takes time to get it, and we will meet for half a month, that is, at noon today, at the Shili Pavilion outside the south gate of Yingtianfu, to exchange helpers." ”

Zheng Hengzhou asked: "Senior Fan wants me to take the atlas to trade with Black Dragon Gate?" ”

"Yes."

"Really Dragon Descending God Palm Atlas?"

"Yes."

Zheng Hengzhou groaned for a while, and said: "Seniors, it's not that juniors are afraid of things, with the magic skills of the Dragon Gang Master, they still fall into the hands of the enemy." This Dragon Descending Divine Palm Atlas is the treasure of your family, if it is lost in my hands, the younger generation will be a great sin. ”

Fan Shihao said: "This matter was originally difficult to do. As long as the Dragon Gang Leader's life can be exchanged, even if the divine power is lost, the tens of thousands of people in the Beggar Gang will not frown. I was afraid that Black Dragon Gate would not believe in its words, so I received the map, but I didn't let it go. We have been deployed for this matter for a long time, and the good players in the Nanzhili territory have been transferred, but I didn't expect that today it was planted in the hands of Dongchang. At present, looking at Ying Tianfu, no one in this gang can take on this responsibility. The rest of the gang are ordinary disciples, at most they stand up and bluff people, but they really can't do it. Zheng Shaoxia's martial arts are both high and talented, if you can't do this, others can't do it either. If Zheng Shaoxia didn't go, he would have to bite the bullet and go on his own. ”

"I didn't say I wouldn't go, I was just afraid of bad things." Zheng Hengzhou said: "If my junior brother goes with me, then it will be foolproof." ”

Fan Shihao shook his head: "I have already met Master Liu in Yingtianfu yesterday. He has other priorities on his side, and it is not easy for us to ask him for help. Now in order to rescue the beggars, the trip has been delayed, and maybe it has ruined his big thing. This matter is still troublesome for Zheng Shaoxia to do. ”

"Do your best." Zheng Hengzhou nodded: "Did the senior mention to my junior brother about meeting me?" ”

"Naturally, there is a mention." Fan Shihao said with a smile. "Master Liu asks me to bring a message to him if I meet you again. Shaolin Abbot Miaokong Master and the head of the Huashan faction, Tian Hengzi and Lingshi, plan to hold a hero meeting in Wuchang Mansion on March 15, I hope you can take the time to meet at that time. ”

"Thank you seniors for telling me."

Fan Shihao reluctantly got up, and Zheng and Ke stepped forward to help. Fan Shihao said: "Master Liu pursued Cao Wenxin, I don't know what the result is. Let's continue to stay here, and it's hard to guarantee that the East Factory won't come to the door again. It's better to go. The people who died here will be collected by me another day. ”

More than a dozen beggars helped each other and stepped out of the mountain temple. Fan Shihao took out the Dragon Descending Divine Palm Atlas from his arms, handed it to Zheng Hengzhou, and said, "Zheng Shaoxia, you and the guest girl should go first." Tomorrow at noon, the appointment of the Ten Mile Pavilion can be nourished and then go to the appointment. ”

Ke Wanqing was worried about the safety of the gang and wanted to escort him. Fan Shihao refused: "Rescuing the gang leader is the top priority of this gang, and as a disciple of the beggar gang, you should focus on the overall situation." We old bones can't die, you can go with Zheng Shaoxia. ”

***

Zheng Hengzhou and Ke Wanqing said goodbye to the beggars, pulled two official horses from Dongchang on the mountain road, and rushed to Yingtianfu overnight. Before dawn, it had already arrived at the Shili Pavilion in the south of the city. The two of them rushed for a day yesterday, fought and killed at night, and helped others heal their wounds late at night, and they were already exhausted.

There are a few tents next to the Ten Mile Pavilion, which are teahouses and vendors that specialize in the business of tourists. In order to avoid the trouble of official horses, Zheng Hengzhou put the two horses away, opened the shed, moved out the tables and chairs, and slept on the table with Ke Wanqing.

After dawn, the teahouse was open for business, and when I saw the two of them, I didn't disturb them, and let them sleep. There are occasional travelers who travel overnight on the official road to rest like this, and when they are unwelcome, they will climb directly on the table to sleep. The tea shopkeeper is a tourist business, which is convenient for others and himself. Anyway, it's just dawning, and there isn't much business.

The two of them slept for more than two hours, if they hadn't slept until their hands and buttocks hurt, they were afraid that they would still have to sleep. After waking up, Zheng Hengzhou made a pot of good tea with the tea shopkeeper, ordered some melons and fruit snacks, and looked at the Shili Pavilion next to him while eating and drinking.

Ke Wanqing drank tasteless tea, and wanted to find wine. There are noodle stalls and vegetable stalls nearby, but they don't sell alcohol. She ate some snacks, drank tea for a while, and said, "Brother Zheng, there is nothing to do left and right, why don't you take the Dragon Descending Divine Palm out and take a look?" ”

Zheng Hengzhou was stunned for a moment and said: "This map is the treasure of the beggar gang, Senior Fan believed in me, so he entrusted it to me, how can I take it out and look at it casually?" ”

Ke Wanqing said: "It's almost not a treasure of the beggars." Don't you look at it, it's not for the people of Black Dragon Gate? Besides, if you look at it for a while, can you learn the world-famous Dragon Descending Divine Palm? ”

Zheng Hengzhou said: "I have made up my mind, after rescuing the Dragon Gang Leader, I must find a way to recapture the map." In any case, we must not allow the Central Plains to spread outside the customs. We walk the rivers and lakes, and we value a ...... the most"

Before he finished speaking, he felt empty in his arms, and the Descending Dragon Divine Palm Atlas had already arrived in Ke Wanqing's hand, and he was easily flipping through it, like an idle book.

Zheng Hengzhou hurriedly said: "Put it away!" Let's wait here, it's hard to guarantee that the people of the Black Dragon Gate won't wait here! You are so blatant, aren't you revealing the bottom line? ”

"Brother Zheng is really boring." Ke Wanqing sighed lightly, closed the map, and handed it back to Zheng Hengzhou. "It's been less than two years since my little sister joined the beggar gang, and I've heard several times that someone is fighting the idea of lowering the dragon god's palm, and this is not the first time that she has come out to send someone who snatched the atlas. The little sister was born and died for this atlas, let me take a look, what's the matter? ”

"It's not mine, I can't be the master." Zheng Hengzhou said and stuffed the atlas back into his arms.

His tone was resolute, but he was deeply sorry in his heart. For some reason, he always felt that Ke Wanqing wanted to see it but he didn't show her, as if there was something wrong with him. If this atlas is not a beggar thing, Mo said that she wanted to see it, that is, she wanted to take it, Zheng Hengzhou would not say anything. He has never coveted things that are not shared, even if he has seen Elder Fan's skills and yearns for the Dragon Descending God Palm, but if the thing is not his, he will not look at it.

"It turns out that the guest girl has joined the beggar gang for less than two years." Zheng Hengzhou was afraid that she would be angry, so he looked for something to chat. "In fact, with the skills of a guest girl, even if her family is in the middle of the road, she can walk the rivers and lakes alone, how can she want to join the beggar gang."

"Brother Zheng looks down on our beggar gang?" Ke Wanqing feigned anger.

"Of course not." Zheng Hengzhou hurriedly explained. "It's just a girl...... Girl...... is beautiful and refined, saying that he is a beggar, it is really not like it. ”

Ke Wanqing smiled slightly and said, "How easy is it for a girl to walk the rivers and lakes alone?" Besides, the beggars help the disciples to be free and easy, and do whatever they want, how can they be as pedantic as your famous and decent disciples, with so many rules? ”

Zheng Hengzhou raised his eyebrows: "I see that there are many loyal people in the beggar gang, like Elder Xu, who spares no effort to save people." The leader of the Dragon Gang participated in the Alliance to protect the party, and he also attached great importance to the situation of the imperial court. ”

"It's not like it's going to be forced by the situation." Ke Wanqing said. "Who wants to take care of national affairs if they can ignore national affairs? The little sister joined the beggar gang and wanted to live freely, but she didn't expect that after joining the beggar gang, she really didn't have a day to be idle. In the past two years, his footprints have almost traveled to the two capitals and thirteen provinces. Even beggars have to take care of national affairs, why do you think this is coming? ”

The two were relatively silent, and after a while, Zheng Hengzhou said softly: "I just hope that all this will pass quickly." In our lifetime, we will be able to see peace and prosperity. ”

Ke Wanqing snorted and sneered: "Since the Wanli period, the emperor has ignored the government and handed everything over to the courtiers and eunuchs to stir up. Ignoring the government turned out to be the tradition of the Ming Zhu family. If you want to wait until the peaceful and prosperous times, it is like a fool's dream. She changed her tone and said, "Don't talk about that." After exchanging maps for a while, what is Brother Zheng going to do? ”

"What you want to do depends on what the other party does." Zheng Hengzhou said. "If they bring the Dragon Gang Master and hand over the people with one hand and the score with the other, of course things couldn't be simpler. But I don't think it's going to be that simple. ”

"Then we should make things more complicated." Ke Wanqing said with a smile.

"What do you mean?"

Ke Wanqing stepped forward, looking like a conspiracy and calculation. "Divide the atlas into two halves, half for you and half for me. Let's hand over half of the book first, and when the Dragon Gang Master gets it, we'll give them the other half. or not, it is up to Brother Zheng to decide. ”

Zheng Hengzhou said: "I also have this idea. It's just that the guest girl has half a atlas, so she can take a big risk. ”

"Brother Zheng is worried about the little sister, and the little sister is very happy." Ke Wanqing said this, but his tone was full of mockery. "Brother Zheng has half a atlas, and my little sister is afraid that you are in danger. It's man-made, so we don't have to be polite. ”

After speaking, she stole the atlas from Zheng Hengzhou's arms, spread out the pages, tore it in half, and returned the first half of the atlas to Zheng Hengzhou, leaving the second half for herself.

"With our strength at the moment, if we want to save the Dragon Gang Leader, most of this map has to be handed over. The question is how does Brother Zheng plan to recover it afterwards? ”

Zheng Hengzhou touched his head and said, "Think of a way to follow each other?" ”

Ke Wanqing shook her head: "The people of the Black Dragon Gate are not stupid. She turned her head and beckoned to an oncoming beggar.

"Stinky food, come here!" The beggar came running, bowed, and said, "Thank you, girl, for the reward." ”

Ke Wanqing took out a piece of broken silver and threw it into the broken bowl in the beggar's hand.

The beggar couldn't stop thanking him, and at the same time lowered his voice and said, "The gang has been assigned." As soon as the other party shows up, we will be targeted. ”
