On the official road of Dongchang Mansion, a group of four people walked westward.

It was late autumn, and although the sun was still bright and warm, it had lost some of its warmth. The grass and trees beside the road are like old pages, messy and yellow, and in the increasingly bleak wind, I feel the sadness of autumn.

One of the four is an elder who takes the lead behind his back. I saw that he was wearing a square scarf on his head, wearing a kudzu pan collar shirt, and his body was slightly fat. If you look closely, you can see that while walking, it is slightly breathing, which is really extraordinary.

Another elder, wearing a white scarf, wearing a white large-sleeved shirt, holding an iron fracture fan, with a fair face, although he is over half a hundred years old, he is not less dignified and graceful, and at this time he is talking about "legends" with a complacent face.

"Legend has it that there is a proud country in the east, the country is close to the sea, and there is a famous mountain in the sea, called the ...... of Huaguo Mountain", it turned out that he was telling the story of the Monkey King.

Looking at his appearance and dress, although he is not a leader in Hanlin, he should also be a well-educated person, and he must be familiar with books and miscellaneous dramas such as "The Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" and "The Poetry of the Three Tibetan Scriptures of the Tang Dynasty".

He was followed by two young men, each holding three feet in his hand, clearly from the rivers and lakes.

One of them was dressed in plain clothes, fluttering like a spring breeze blowing willows, and seemed to listen to the story seriously, but the corners of his mouth were slightly slanted, thinking that he was already tired of it.

The other person was dressed in black color, like a fat cow going to the ground, I saw that his face was dark, although he was only about five feet long, but he looked quite strong, his ears were erect, his body was leaning forward, and his broken and slow steps were not only afraid of not being able to keep up, but also afraid of disturbing the elders with heavy sounds, just listening stupidly.

This storyteller is Lu Ke, who is called "Tiancongzi", and the other elder is his brother-in-law, He Jiuyuan, the current head of the Taishan faction. Although the latter two young people have just come out of the rivers and lakes, they are the leaders of the young generation of the Taishan faction, and they have also won the name of "Xuansu Shuangxia" in this area of Shandong.

"My legs were very sore all the way, and my eyes were dry and my mouth was dry. If you have tea to quench your thirst...... Thirsty ......" Yu Changxuan was tired of hearing the story, and deliberately interrupted the master, but it was a crooked poem and stuck.

"Thirsty...... Pity the heart of the master in the world. Lu Ke said with a smile, and the paper fan smashed over. Yu Changxuan jumped away like a rabbit and said aggrievedly, "Master, where are you pitiful."

"Poor old man's reputation is going to be ruined in the hands of you stinky boy, hum."

"Huh...... Changxuan, don't be anxious, and move forward, there must be a tea pavilion. He Jiuyuan smiled slightly. For this pair of living treasure masters and apprentices, he is also helpless.

Yu Changxuan wiped his sweat. The heart said, "I am a dignified Taishan faction, I actually have to rush on foot, so slowly, when will I be able to get to Wudang."

Originally, they each had their own mounts, but before they went down the mountain for half a day, the four horses died almost at the same time, and under careful inspection, they had been poisoned one after another.

"Let's go, senior brother, the master is right." Tie Lian smiled and said to Chang Xuan, he saw that his senior brother suddenly accepted a naughty smile, thinking that he didn't believe what his master said, so he deliberately made a round.

Although the two brothers are called "Xuansu Twin Heroes", their habits are simply very different. Senior brother Yu Changxuan's every move, he is completely like a gentleman. And the junior brother Tie Lian is stupid and stupid, and he doesn't understand what it means to be interesting, and he doesn't understand what it means to be romantic.

As they spoke, the four of them had turned around and suddenly opened up in front of them. A humble inn is located proudly on the open ground, and the four big characters "Tyrone Inn" are picked up in the corner of the eaves. The store is not big, but the business is very prosperous.

This shop is quite good at choosing a place, look at this boundary, it was a fork in the road, all the way to the northwest, through Yanji, all the way to the west, up to Henan, there are a lot of people in the past, and the small inn is gradually bigger.

The four of them came down from Mount Tai, and when they came here, they were quite tired, so they picked up a table and ordered a few kinds of wine and food to eat.

"Hurry up, everyone, we still have to hurry!" He Jiuyuan said calmly. On the table behind him, four pairs of eyes were already seared into his heart. Although those four people were extremely careful, their lingering aura of slaughter would be exposed as long as they touched the old rivers and lakes. That murderous aura is really innate.

"Master, shall we go to Wudang on foot like this? I heard that Wudang is far away from us, so we won't miss the meeting, right? Tie Lian asked ignorantly.

He Jiuyuan didn't answer, but only listened to Lu Ke and said, "No, no, we have to meet a few guests first." Obviously, the sneaky eyes of those four people couldn't escape his ears, he was a well-known Tiancongzi in the rivers and lakes.

"Visitors? What kind of guests will be? Yu Chang preached, "Didn't you go to the meeting?" ”

"As far as you kid has a lot of problems, hurry up and eat!" Lu Ke's fan knocked again, and Yu Changxuan wanted to hide, but he didn't see the master raise his hand, and the fan had already smashed on his head.

The four of them ate and walked slowly along the road to the west.

Seeing the road ahead passing through the hills, everyone slowed down. The hill isn't high, but it's big enough to hide some thieves.

Lu Ke suddenly stopped, and erected an iron fan to signal everyone to stop.

Didn't you meet a robber, Yu Changxuan said in his heart, but there was no fear in his eyes, but he was a little excited. Tie Lian was engrossed in vigilance.

Sure enough, after the time of half the incense, I first heard the sound of rustling, and then a few flying shadows flashed down and surrounded the four of them. When I looked closely, it was indeed the four of them. If you make a further distinction, it can be seen that among the four people, two black and two white, two fat and two thin, two tall and two short, each with a left sword and a right sword, murderous and quite weird.

"He Jiuyuan ......," the black fat man among the four people said word by word.

"The Netherworld? I don't know what you're doing," He Jiuyuan asked with a smile, and he could be regarded as admitting that he was the person they were looking for.

"Haha...... If you run into a few of our brothers, I'm afraid your head will be done."

"Hmph...... When will I have the final say on the matter of He Jiuyuan, a few of you. He Jiuyuan said awe-inspiringly.

The name of this "Netherworld Four Wilds" has also been heard of by Changxuan and Iron Chain. They were a well-known group of killers, known in the Assassin industry for their aggressive moves and close cooperation, often cutting off their opponents' heads before they could react. It is rumored that Siye was born to a mother, and has always been mercenary, doing all kinds of evil, and some people even rumored that the current emperor had hired them. And it is indeed well known that they were once hired by a righteous man to kill the traitor Li Jingxi. Perhaps they have no good or evil in their hearts, only money. However, what is strange is that they are so heinous, but after earning money, they also occasionally help street beggars or fallen scholars. They not only go in and out of Fireworks Willow Lane, but also walk in officialdom casinos. The only thing that explains their good deeds is that they are looking for a place to spend their money. The Netherworld has been rampant for many years, unwounded, and in their view, being an assassin is not about survival, but about existence. Of course, it is not always possible to complete the task, but this does not affect their business, because with the distance of the rivers and lakes and the height of the temple, this kind of business has never lacked owners.

"Well said, let you see today whether our brother's words count." As the man spoke, the sword had reached He Jiuyuan's eyes.

He Jiuyuan took out the giant pen of Youlong, and only picked it one by one, setting up the black fat man who was the first to attack in the four fields, and in an instant, Lu Ke's iron-bone paper fan had already waved twice in the back, and it was entangled with another white thin man. At the same time, the other two on both sides also came to Changxuan and Tie Lian. The eight of them fought together in an instant.

I saw He Jiuyuan holding up a huge pen, flying sand and rocks, magnificent, Russian and swimming dragons and phoenixes, light and agile. Lu Ke is a fan with a tiger, vigorous and sharp. And the four fields of the netherworld each hold two weapons, as if the eight fields of the netherworld, any person's cultivation is not low, and he has been ravaging the rivers and lakes for many years, and he has rich experience in dealing with the enemy. There are only "Xuansu Twin Heroes", who are struggling left and right, and they are very difficult, and they have to be supported by two masters from time to time.

Encountering such a killer, He Jiuyuan knew that a vicious battle was inevitable. It's just that Tie Lian and Chang Xuan have just entered the rivers and lakes, their skills are limited, and they lack experience in dealing with the enemy, so they can't have a good guy.

In the middle of the fight, a signal flare was suddenly seen rising in the northern sky. The four fields of the Netherworld looked at each other, each jumped out of the battle circle, and disappeared into the mountains in the north in an instant.

Tie Lian was in high spirits, screamed, and was about to catch up, but was stopped by He Jiuyuan.

"Master, are they the Netherworld?" Tie Lian reluctantly retreated.

"Well, let's go! We hurried to the daimyo, and went to find a few horses, but the road was not easy. He Jiuyuan took a step, but did not answer the apprentice's question. First, the mount was tampered with, and then it was assassinated by the Netherworld. He had a vague feeling that a storm was coming.

"Master, why did those people assassinate us? And why did they run away, was it because they were afraid of us? Chang Xuan knew that this Netherworld was not defeated by his own side and fled.

"You ask me?" Lu Ke pointed to himself, "I am your master, not your fine work...... and an old face let the broken mouth sell like this.

Yu Changxuan looked at his master in amazement, as if he was laughing at an idiot brother.

"I think it might be that someone hired them to our detriment, but something changed and they were called back." Yu Changxuanxue analyzed Lu Ke's appearance.

"Well, Senior Brother is right." Tie Lian nodded in agreement.

"Nonsense, they are assassins, and they are naturally hired to kill us, but who is the person behind this scene? and we have not sinned against anyone. Yu Changxuan has always been not very polite. Not to mention this pedantic junior brother.

Tie Lian didn't care at all, and said again, "Senior brother is right. ”

"Alas...... Thousands of miles to the meeting for the discussion of the scriptures, half a day of wind and dust incomprehensible. But he still has to see the face of the fourth master, and he is really innocent and punished. Since he couldn't figure out why, Yu Changxuan didn't think about it. I don't know when, I also took out a paper fan from my cuff, shook my head and chanted a poem like a master.

"Hey...... You kid...... Stop. Lu Ke was angry and funny, the fan in his hand had been raised unconsciously, and Yu Changxuan had already run away.

Although this poetry is his favorite, writing poetry is not his strong point, and this apprentice prefers to be interested here, although there are no good sentences handed down, it is enough to entertain himself.

"If my junior sister knew that there was a handsome show like Changxuan who didn't worship under her door, I'm afraid she would have a lifelong hatred, haha......" He Jiuyuan laughed when he heard this.

"Hmm...... You reminded me that when I saw Sister Qinglan this time, I will definitely hand this kid over to her. Lu Ke said angrily, with a look of hatred that iron does not become steel.

However, he didn't think that He Jiuyuan could be optimistic about Changxuan's poetic talent. Don't say that his junior sister Dai Fairy Du Qinglan has the talent of Yi'an, it is He Jiuyuan, and he is not far behind. Although Yu Changxuan is a good material, he has followed himself since he was a child, and he lacks a lot of skills. Although he knew that most of the time he was going to delay Yu Changxuan, Lu Ke often found reasons for himself, what was the use of learning those? It's better to learn to be a Chu madman. If he hadn't taken a fancy to this kid's similarity to himself, he wouldn't have accepted such an apprentice.
