A small boat slowly approached the shore of a tributary that stretched out to the west. At night, you can see the shadow of a small fishing village. This small fishing village is twenty or thirty miles away from Qiyang, but there are only four or five households. However, near the backwater of a river bend in Qishui, there is a kind of scaleless white fish that spawns here every year, whether it is the meat of the scaleless white fish or the roe produced, it is rare and delicious.

This fishing village is also one of the industries directly led by the Hou Chamber, and dozens of miles away from Qiyang, except for the scaleless white fish and roe that are paid annually to the Hou Chamber, live a peaceful and undisputed life here.

The morning star has risen in the east, and the morning light is slightly dewed. Two men jumped down from the boat first, it was Tu Feng and Yue Gou, and then a middle-aged man came out of the canopy, dressed in cloth and bastard shoes, it was Tan Yan.

Tu Feng and Yue Gou escorted Tan Yan to jump off the boat, and the two of them looked a little unwilling, but Tan Yan looked light, and he didn't care at all about escaping from his lair and losing his foundation in Waibei City. Still dragging his feet as usual, he walked towards the fishing village under the escort of Tu Fengyuegou.

The three of them came to a thatched hut in the fishing village, and when they opened the broken door, they saw several desolate houses in the courtyard. After coming to the hall, Tan Yan personally lifted a stone slab in the corner of the house, looked back at Tu Feng and the two of them, and the two of them hurriedly retreated. Tan Yan groped under the stone slab for a while, stirred up a few mechanisms, and silently recited a few words. The light flickered, and the floor of the entire hall rose silently, opening to both sides, revealing a wide staircase path leading to the ground.

Tan Yan got up and said lightly: "Just settle down here for a while, contact a few people who go out to do business, and then figure out the next step." ”

Before he finished speaking, Tu Feng and Yue Gou took a step forward and blocked in front of Tan Yan. Only then did Tan Yan notice that at the end of the road leading to the underground, there was a faint yellow light, which was flickering quietly!

Tu Feng and the others immediately drew their blades, escorted Tan Yan and turned around and left. A rare look of panic and fear flashed on Tan Yan's face, and he took a few steps for Tu Fengyue, and finally took a deep breath and stood still, and said to the two of them: "Wait outside first, don't let me order, don't come in." ”

Tu Feng and the two were puzzled, but in the end, they bowed down to accept the order, Tan Yan calmly put on a face, and slowly walked down the steps.

This step is extremely deep into the ground, with black stone parapets on both sides, and the passage is extremely dry, and there is no damp and cold underground. At the end of the tunnel is another alleyway, and the light is shining through the alleyway. Tan Yan walked forward without hesitation, pushed open a door at the end of the alleyway, and saw a very neatly furnished room inside, with a velvet blanket and a crystal lamp hanging high in the light of the craftsman Han's own fire. There are portals on both sides, and there is more than one underground structure.

If this is the temporary residence that Tan Yan prepared for himself when he escaped, then Tan Yan's handwriting is ten times bigger than what the world has seen!

In this room, there are a few cases, a middle-aged man wearing a brocade robe, wearing a five-beam crown, a dignified appearance but a smooth chin is sitting in front of the desk, a wine jug, two wine cups, on the table of a plate of scaleless white fish caviar sauce, pouring himself to drink with relish.

This person is the confidant Kuang Long brought by Mrs. Rong from Zhao State.

Tan Yao no longer had the majestic bearing, and fell to his knees with a puff, and said in a trembling voice: "General!"

Kuang Long raised his head, his expression was gentle, and he smiled faintly: "This is the Qin State, the official position of the Zhao State, so there is no need to mention it." ”

Tan Yan's face was sweating like rain, and he took a few steps on his knees: "General, the villain just wants to rest here for a night, and tomorrow he will find the general to repay everything." I really didn't expect the general to come here in person, and the villain deserves death!"

Kuang Long said with a smile: "After so many years, Master Hou, you have also accumulated a lot of belongings, and there are all granges in Qin, South Korea, and Wei? Isn't that so?"

Tan Yan trembled, and said in a loud voice: "Where does the villain dare? The general instructed that let the villain converge these days, and it is best to leave Qiyang for a period of time, so that the Marquis of Yan and the Shi family think that the power of Heyang Jun has shrunk." The villain acted unfavorably today, so he took this opportunity to burn down the mansion and leave, also according to the general's orders!"

He kowtowed again and again: "The villain didn't know that Xu Le actually had a remnant of Luo Hu by his side, and he was caught off guard all of a sudden, it was the villain's incompetence, but the villain didn't have the slightest intention of escaping." The general has an order, and the villain will do it for the general even if he is broken to pieces!"

Tan Yan was born, just a small businessman in Qi State. and the current Zhao Xiangbang Xingfu is a little very distant relative, and rushed to join after Xingfu Xiangzhao. Xing Fu didn't care much about it, he just set him up somewhere to have an idle meal. Mrs. Rong is married to the current Marquis of Qin, and the Zhao people naturally have some arrangements. A large number of people were brought over for Kuang Long and distributed throughout the Qin State to prepare for something in the future. Tan Yan didn't know what way to go, but he was actually among the people who brought Qin State.

Tan Yan was placed in Waibei City, with the support of secret, plus Tan Yan was very lucky, and he dared to risk his life at the beginning. actually made him break out of the world in Waibei City. After having a little foundation, Kuang Long increased his support for him, and Heyangjun also stepped in. With such a backer behind him, Tan Yao rose to the top until he became the Beishi Hou in the population of Qiyang, majestic and powerful, no worse than a small family.

Yesterday, Tan Yan was called by the nobles, and it was Kuang Long. Kuang Long Zheng instructed Tan Yan to find an opportunity to assassinate Xu Le, so as to perfunctory the pressure from Mrs. Rong. As a result, while they were deliberating, Xu Le coincidentally appeared in Waibei City, and Kuang Long immediately sent the two assassins to Tan Yan and asked him to act on the situation.

When Xu Le was like lightning with a sword, he killed hundreds of swordsmen and rushed to Tan Yan. Tan Yan found that his previous courage could not be mentioned at all. Ten years of rich life has long worn off that bit of courage. He knew that if he held on, he would most likely die under Xu Le's sword!

Tan Yan resolutely turned around and ran, completely ignoring the consequences of the morale of those men and horses under his command after he escaped. fled all the way to the mansion, and thought about the scene of Rahu Qi suddenly appearing from the darkness, sprinkled with fire and rain all over the sky, burning the river red!

Once you have escaped the first step, the second step is much easier. Tan Yan, who couldn't sit still any longer, led Tu Feng to hook a few cronies more and more, and left through the secret passage. Hop on a small boat and go straight to this shelter that no one knew about at the beginning. The next step is to follow Kuanglong's order to completely converge the traces and wait for the future, or to prepare to find an opportunity to simply escape far away and enjoy wealth and prosperity after the limelight is over, Tan Yan himself is not sure.

Xu Le, Peng Chong, and even the residents of Waibei City, always thought that Tan Yan had left strangely, and there must be some plan. In fact, they all guessed wrong, specifically as far as Tan Yan himself is concerned, last night's sudden change is that the simple Hou Ye who calls for wind and rain has become a coward.

Kuang Long stopped drinking and said coldly: "I asked you to converge and even leave Qiyang for a while." I didn't let you flee in such an embarrassment! Now that your home is being raided in Waibei City, and in Qiyang City, I don't know how many nobles are mobilizing manpower and preparing to rob you of the property you left behind! These arrangements are all preparations for future events, and you were defeated overnight, are you really at my command?"

There was a sound of rage in the room, and Tan Yan began to fight desperately. What remains in my heart is the deepest fear. If you don't run away from Xu Le, it's just death. For this General Kuang, if he just dies, it is already the greatest luck!

Only now did he understand that everything he had had come to this point through Kuang Long's secret support and under the banner of Heyang Jun. The people in Qiyang were afraid of Heyang Jun, and the Hou room was weak, so he was allowed to sit big. And when he met Xu Le, who didn't care about it and heard that Heyangjun's reputation might be even more vigorous, he collapsed with a bang! It's nothing to lose the industry he has run, if he loses the trust and support of Kuang Long and Heyangjun, then he is nothing, and death is already the best ending!

I knew that at this time, why did I have to run away in the first place? It is better to fight with Xu Le to break the net.

After thinking about it, Tan Yan finally calmed down a little, and kowtowed again: "The villain knows that he is wrong, and it is not a pity to die." The power industry run by the villain is known to the outside world. The villain also has a sentence, if Xu Le doesn't die, maybe he will ruin the big things of Zhao Hou and Xiangbang! Who would have thought that there would be Rahu remnants by his side!"

Kuang Long stood up and walked behind Tan Yan. Stretching out his right hand with a nail cover and excellent maintenance, he patted the top of Tan Yao's head. Tan Yan didn't dare to move, just knelt straight there. Kuang Long's palm patted lightly one after another, and the cold sweat dripped down layer by layer.

After a long while, Kuang Long suddenly smiled: "Forget it, you are also crooked." Now everyone in Qiyang should feel that Qiyang is getting safer and safer...... And some of the chess pieces that have been arranged by your hand are only recognized by you. I won't make you a puppet...... That was Fang Shizong's method...... So be it! Now you stay here and wait for my next order. I actually give my subordinates a second chance, it seems that I am really old and soft-hearted......"

Kuang Long shook his head as he spoke, took out a piece of Qi Guo silk handkerchief from his arms, and wiped his hands.

Tan Yan was stunned for a moment, couldn't stop kowtowing heavily, and in a blink of an eye, he was bleeding all over his face.

"Thank you general, thank you general! The villain must do his best to serve the general! And that Xu Le, you must get rid of it, otherwise it may ruin the general's big thing!"

In this sentence, how much is really for the sake of Zhao Guoda's plan, and how much is about hating Xu Le, it is a little uncertain.

Kuang Long laughed: "Don't worry about it, you have already made arrangements." This kind of character who stirs up trouble is still said by Xiang Bang well, and he can't be allowed to keep ......"

After the last word was spoken, the room was still ending, and Kuang Long had disappeared. Tan Yan still knelt on the ground for a long time, and finally raised his head in fear. The wine and food on several cases are still warm, but Kuang Long seems to have never appeared here.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

The noisy voices suddenly sounded around Xu Le Grange on the side of Ran Houling. The half-old man in charge of the grange was old, and he had slept lightly, and he was suddenly alarmed. Roll over and get out of bed. And I saw that the morning light was already pouring in through the window.

So he muttered while dressing: "It's so early, why is it so lively?"

When I opened the door, I saw that many people had come out of the house, looking into the distance in amazement.

A large group of carriages and horses are rolling in and coming. The most striking thing is, of course, dozens of carriages, which are full of things. On and off the bus, there were half-grown children, cheering and escorting these cars.

In front of the convoy, dozens of Rouran horses led the way. Immediately, the knights were all in armor, and each of them wore several blades. Most of these knights were young men, about twenty years old at most. Although it doesn't look like it's very well nourished, it's full of energy and vitality.

Walking at the front of the team is Xu Le, the new owner of the manor. He staggered on his horse, looking desperately sleepy, and covered in blood.

This gentleman went out yesterday morning and said that he was visiting a friend, and then he has not returned until now. The team grew hundreds of times at once, bringing back so many people, horses, horses, and belongings. Could it be that Xu Le and the others went out to rob which Rouran or Ghost Fang tribe?

So he stood there for a long time without thinking about it, and the slaves around him gathered more and more, all of them staring at what was happening in front of them in amazement.

Seeing that the team was getting closer and closer, he finally slapped his thigh: "Hurry up, go and greet you!"

Only then did the slaves react, and they rushed up to Xu Le in a hurry, and greeted Xu Le. Everyone has just changed the king, it is the time to behave well, and everyone is really curious, this gentleman went out and shook around, how could there be such a big battle when he came back!

So he and the slaves didn't notice it at all. There was already one more person in the crowd, and that person was dressed as a short-clothed slave, and he followed behind with his head bowed, as if he was like a wisp of green smoke, a shadow, and no one noticed his presence.

So he took the slaves in the village to meet him, and Xu Le also restrained his mount, turned over and dismounted. So after taking the slave to bow down, he got up and didn't know what to say.

As I got closer, I saw more and more the enormity of the team that Xu Le brought back. I'm afraid there are not four or five hundred people, dozens of cars, and more than 100 healthy horses. All sorts of belongings were tied up in a mess in the car. There were also many girls and children in the team, and several white-haired girls from the Ghost Fang Xihe Seed looked at this very small grange curiously, and their beautiful appearance made many slaves secretly swallow their saliva.

Xu Le yawned and greeted Yu Er: "Old Yu, hurry up and call someone to boil hot water to get something to eat, it's been a busy night, and everyone is hungry." Don't worry, I'm in for a treat, and you don't have to pay for it. ”

So he said dumbfoundedly: "Your Excellency invites so many guests?"

Xu Le smiled: "What kind of guest?

So he was completely speechless, and everything that suddenly happened was beyond the cognition of this honest Zhuang who had been friends for half his life.

And at this time, Cai Hengwen, who was lying in the car and taking care of several young girls, suddenly opened his eyes and shouted: "Boss!"

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

I didn't expect there to be three more, right?
