He pulled out the long sword at his waist, the tip of the sword pointed directly at Pu Chatai's abdomen, slowly moved down, and said coldly: "The Dragon Gang Master explains, there is no need to torture you, just cut off two eggs, even if it is to help him take revenge." ”

Pu Chatai's eyes moved with the tip of his sword, and large drops of sweat appeared on his head. When Zheng Hengzhou raised his long sword, he was about to click down, and he was so frightened on the spot that he was unable to possess his body, shouting: "Slow!" ”

Zheng Hengzhou didn't freeze his sword and asked, "How is it?" ”

"You ......" Pu Chatai gritted his teeth and said, "You ask." ”

Zheng Hengzhou asked, "Where is the guest girl?" ”

"She's gone."

"You killed her?"

"Nope."

"You're going to let her go?"

"It's not."

Zheng Hengzhou said loudly: "You make it clear to me!" ”

Pu Chatai looked up at him, smiled coldly, and said, "I'll give her your half of the Dragon Descending God Palm Atlas, and let her take it back to her life." ”

"Nonsense!" Zheng Hengzhou's long sword pointed downwards and once again pressed against Pu Chatai's lower body. "The guest girl didn't return to the beggars at all."

The corners of Pu Chatai's mouth rose: "Who said that she was killed by the beggars?" ”

Zheng Hengzhou's voice was fierce: "I don't allow you to slander the guest girl!" ”

Pu Chatai did not flinch: "Are you familiar with her?" Do you know who she is? ”

Zheng Hengzhou only felt that his scalp was numb, cold sweat was flowing on his back, and he said in a trembling voice: "She is a disciple of the five bags of the Beggar Gang, and she is deeply valued by the Dragon Gang Leader and the Fan Gang Leader. You Jurchen dog bewitches the public, but you can't fool me! ”

"And where did you say she went?"

She ...... She's going to let you kill you! ”

Pu Chatai shook his head lightly: "You said let me kill, just let me kill." ”

Zheng Hengzhou was frightened, returned the sword into the sheath, stepped forward and punched Pu Chatai in the face, only to make his left eye swollen. "You say! You tell me! ”

Pu Chatai spat out a mouthful of blood and sneered: "Ke Wanqing's real name is Ke Wanzhen, she is the niece of the current Fengsheng Lady Hak, and she is the goddaughter of the nine-thousand-year-old Wei Zhongxian. Hanging a jasper card on the waist can mobilize the soldiers and horses of the East Factory. Two years ago, he was ordered by Wei Zhongxian to infiltrate the beggar gang, in order to seize the Dragon Descending God Palm Atlas. Now that the map has been obtained and the public morality is complete, do you think about it, where will she go back? ”

Ke is the nurse of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, beautiful appearance, eighteen years old into the palace to breastfeed the prince, and the emperor grew up, still "every morning into the dry warm pavilion to serve the emperor, after the night back to Xian'an Palace." "The Emperor of the Apocalypse named her as the Holy Lady, held great power in the palace, and was in cahoots with Wei Zhongxian, controlled the government, and embarrassed the concubines, and the ministers of Donglin all hated her so much.

Zheng Hengzhou grabbed the placket of the other party's shirt and scolded angrily: "You are lying!" After speaking, his right palm was raised high, and he was about to shoot down the Puchatai Heavenly Spirit Gai. Bai Caozhi reached out and grabbed his wrist to stop him. Zheng Hengzhou turned his head to look at him, only to see Bai Caozhi slowly shaking his head.

"Brother Zheng, the guest girl you are talking about, but she is in her early twenties, with a melon seed face, phoenix eyes and thin lips, and a beautiful mole under her right eye?"

Zheng Hengzhou was so excited that he even said, "How do you know?" "I didn't dare to ask.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Bai Caozhi was relieved and continued: "As everyone knows, the Hakka clan and Wei Zhongxian are in cahoots. In his early years, in order to please the hospitable family, Wei Zhongxian accepted a pair of brothers and sisters in her family as righteous sons and daughters. The man is called Ke Tianao, and the woman is called Ke Wanzhen. A few years ago, Ke Tianao commanded the soldiers and horses of Dongchang, and worked for Wei Zhongxian, and really made a lot of contributions. Two years ago, he abruptly resigned from the East Factory and his whereabouts have not been known since. I've been keeping an eye on him, but nothing has been heard from him for two years. As for Ke Wanzhen, Wei Zhongxian has many righteous sons and daughters, and he has never sent her to do anything, because this person is unknown, and I have never sent anyone to pay attention to her. This guy said that Wei Zhongxian let her use a pseudonym to infiltrate the beggar gang to steal the Dragon Descending Divine Palm, in my opinion...... It's not out of the question. ”

"But...... Miss Ke, she ......, "Zheng Hengzhou is unbelievable. "Miss Hakka wouldn't do that."

"Won't it?" Pu Chatai said with a smile. "The next time you see her, won't you just ask her in person?"

Zheng Hengzhou's thoughts were disordered, he didn't have time to pay attention to him, and sat back in his chair in a daze. Bai Caozhi stepped forward and stood in front of Pu Chatai, his eyes glaring at him coldly. "Wei Zhongxian wants to take the Dragon God Palm Atlas, what's the matter with your Black Dragon Gate?"

Pu Chatai's smile froze, and he did not answer.

Bai Caozhi then asked: "You said that you handed over the atlas to Ke Wanzhen, doesn't it mean that you are in a group?" Or do you want to say that you can't beat Ke Wanzhen, and the atlas was actually taken away by her? ”

Pu Chatai only said, "This is ...... This ......"

"When did Black Dragon Gate and Wei Zhongxian hook up? He is the best in the world in martial arts, why did he take the dragon god palm? Bai Caozhi asked sharply. What are your plans for a large number of masters of the Black Dragon Gate to infiltrate the pass? Ran to Wuchang Mansion to so-called something? ”

Puchatai closed his lips tightly and shook his head silently.

"Is Black Dragon Gate colluding with Wei Zhongxian for personal gain, or is it representing Houjin?"

Pu Chatai said: "Even if you kill me, I won't say it." ”

"I've heard that a lot." The Way of White Grass. "None of the people who can say this have ever seen the methods of the Jinyi Guard." He walked outside the room and called out in a deep voice, "Come in." Immediately five figures entered the wall, rushed into the room, and took Puchatai away.

Bai Caozhi patted Zheng Hengzhou on the shoulder and said, "Brother Zheng, I will help you pay attention to the matter of Ke Wanzhen." Send someone to inform you as soon as there is news. Zheng Hengzhou looked up at him and nodded slightly. Bai Caozhi saw that he was not willing to give up, and said: "Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, people's hearts are sinister, it has been the same since ancient times, and Brother Zheng shouldn't care too much." After saying that, he took his leave and left.

Zheng Hengzhou sat in the dark guest room for a while, sighed lightly, and muttered, "Maybe she has a hard time." That being said, he himself wasn't convinced.

Zheng Hengzhou returned to the beggar gang and told Elder Zeng about the suitability.

The two of them discussed for a moment, and both thought that they needed to send someone to keep an eye on Jinyiwei.

Although the martial arts conference was kept secret and thoughtful, many martial arts people gathered in Wuchang Mansion, and it was difficult to guarantee that it would not attract attention.

Although Bai Caozhi said that he was here for the Black Dragon Gate, it was hard to guarantee that he would not target the martial arts conference.

Besides, no one can say for sure whether Dongchang and Jinyiwei have planted spies in the various gate factions.

As for the matter of Ke Wanqing, apart from continuing to search for and returning to the helm of the beggar gang, they have nothing else to do for the time being. Zheng Hengzhou asked the beggars to help keep an eye on the whereabouts of the master and the two junior disciples, and instructed them to inform him as soon as they entered the Wuchang Mansion.

Zheng Hengzhou was in a low mood and didn't want to stay in a crowded place, so he left the beggar gang and found an inn nearby to stay.

In the past few days, he has practiced diligently every day, trying not to let himself be idle. Just because as soon as he was free, he thought of Ke Wanqing.

He and Ke Wanqing have only been together for more than a month, but they drink and chat every night, and they are happy and comfortable, as if they have known each other for many years. Although I occasionally think of her slightly drunk face and shy smile, I always feel sweet in my heart, but the two intersect and always treat each other politely, and Zheng Hengzhou has never thought about it.

Until the day when he said goodbye at Shili Pavilion, Ke Wanqing gently shook the back of his hand and said, "Brother Zheng, be careful." Zheng Hengzhou felt a strange feeling, and he didn't know if it was affection.

Later, Ke Wanqing disappeared for more than a month, her life and death were uncertain, Zheng Hengzhou was worried and couldn't sit still, only then did he know that he cared so much about her and took her so seriously.

He regretted every day that he had given half of the Dragon Descending Divine Palm Atlas to Ke Wanqing, if he hadn't done so in the first place, Ke Wanqing would not have disappeared...... He blamed himself. He decided that everything was his fault.

Now, things are completely out of shape.

It wasn't the first time he had been betrayed, but he had never known how painful it was for someone he trusted to betray.

He really wanted to treat Ke Wanqing as the most heinous female devil, and wanted to believe that since Long Yougong was captured, everything was in her calculations; However, deep down, he always believed that Pu Chatai was the culprit, and Ke Wanqing just couldn't help himself.

Whenever he remembered Long Yougong's tragic situation, he would grit his teeth and curse Ke Wanqing. But then he would think of Ke Wanqing's slightly sad smile, and the sentence "Brother Zheng, be careful." And then he couldn't scold anymore.

Whenever he tossed and turned, tossing and turning, he said to himself: "Maybe the guest girl has a hard time." Although he himself was not very convinced.

In the blink of an eye, it has come to the eve of the martial arts conference.

Zheng Hengzhou was about to go downstairs for lunch, when suddenly a beggar disciple came to invite him to go over and take a rudder. After asking, it turned out that the Fan Gang Leader had arrived.

Zheng Hengzhou rushed to the beggar gang to divide the rudder, met Fan Shihao, and told each other about his farewell. Speaking of Ke Wanqing, the two were embarrassed.

Fan Shihao said: "The old man looked away, but he didn't expect her little woman to be so vicious. ”

Zheng Hengzhou wanted to say: "Maybe the guest girl has a hard time. "But after all, I didn't say it.

Elder Zeng set aside the wine and food, and the three of them drank at the same table, talking about the recent situation. Bai Caozhi had escorted Pu Chatai back to Beijing for trial a few days ago, and the remaining Jinyi guards had not taken action so far, and it seemed that they had no knowledge of the martial arts conference.

According to Elder Zeng, the discipline of the local Jinyi Guards is far looser than that of the central government, and the Jinyi Guards in Wuchang Mansion are even more than less, and they will never go out to do things without orders from above. It is because although martial arts people can be seen everywhere in Wuchang Mansion at the moment, the people of Jinyiwei still pretend not to see it.

The people of the Black Dragon Gate never appeared.

This martial arts conference was held at the foot of Snake Mountain on the outskirts of the city.

Lone Sail Village is close to the mountains and rivers, looking at the Yellow Crane Tower on the top of the Snake Mountain, the name of the village is Lone Sail, taken from Li Bai Yellow Crane Tower to Meng Haoran's Guangling Mausoleum, "Lone Sail Far Shadow Blue Sky" artistic conception. If you take a boat on the Yangtze River and look at it from a distance, Gufanzhuang is like a page of lonely boat on the river, and the Yellow Crane Tower on the mountain complement each other, which is more poetic.

The owner of Gufan Village is named Song Baicheng, and he is the younger brother of Tianhengzi, the head of Huashan.

Song Baicheng's family had a big business, owned several merchant ships, engaged in freight trading along the Yangtze River, and was rich and powerful in the local area, and Wuchang Mansion had to sell his face regardless of whether it was the government or the people.
