The weather is getting colder.

On the long street, the carriage moved slowly.

The pedestrians on the road were already dressed in thick clothes, the rich wore fur and ermine furs, and the poor were wrapped in sackcloth robes.

Since ancient times, everything has been strong and weak.

Person.

There is also a difference between high and low!

Guo Fan lifted the curtain and looked out.

Compared with usual, there are more people with swords and swords on the streets of the county town.

And.

There are many masters!

The warriors who usually passed the strange scriptures are high-class people in Yanmen County, but they are everywhere.

There are also many masters of the second line.

As for the congenital ......

Guo Fan's eyes turned and landed on a restaurant stall on the corner.

There, the clothed robe and the fox raccoon dog sat opposite each other, and although the two were dressed differently, they ate and drank the same.

The spicy oil and hot soup made the two of them sweat on their foreheads, and the sound of whirring into their stomachs was even more enjoyable.

Innate master.

And there are definitely a lot of tricks.

"Eventful!"

Guo Fan lowered the curtain and sighed softly.

The terrain in the Yanmen Mountains is dangerous, and it is difficult for the army to travel, so bandits have been extremely rampant for many years.

This time, the Three Absolute Demon Monarchs unified the crowd and deterred all directions, and the situation in the entire Jiangzhou was turbulent because of this.

And the situation in Jiangzhou is related to the prince's travel, and even the country's capital, and he can't allow others to make trouble.

The inconspicuous Yanmen County, as the throat of the Yanmen Mountains, has also attracted the attention of people all over the world.

The court gave an order.

The Qingwei faction, the Sword Valley, and even the masters of the only sect, as well as the people in the rivers and lakes under their jurisdiction, rushed to arrive.

Don't say innate.

Even the people who have opened their eyebrows and hearts are also gathered here.

Plus some people who fish in troubled waters......

Time.

The heroes of Yanmen County gathered, and the dark tide was surging, even ordinary people in the city could detect that something was wrong.

"The master of the door. ”

After a while, Senior Brother Mu's voice came from outside the carriage: "We have arrived, and the flowing water is curling." ”

"Hmm. ”

Guo Fan opened his eyes and walked out.

The so-called flowing water.

It is an elegant restaurant in the city, living in the place where the flowing water is circling, and can lead to many waters outside the city.

Some idlers commented on the three mountains and eight views of Yanmen County, which made people forget to return, and this place is one of them.

After getting out of the carriage, Huang Guzong, the deputy leader of the alliance, and Xie Zhuogong, the head of the Foreign Affairs Hall, were already waiting in front of the restaurant.

"Alliance leader. ”

Seeing Guo Fan, the two hurriedly greeted him.

"It's all there?"

Today's Guo Fan is wearing a blue auspicious cloud suit, covered with a straight shirt, and a moon and white cloud pattern belt around his waist, tied like a jade rhino horn.

The black hair is loose and unrestrained, and the eyes are so deep that it is difficult to see the bottom of it.

Although there is nothing unusual about the appearance, standing in place, it naturally attracts the attention of the people around it.

"General Dove arrived early, and he has already drunk three jars of wine and eaten five catties of beef. ”

Huang Guzong sighed and said, "The alliance leader came a little later, but fortunately, the others haven't arrived yet." ”

"Yes. ”

Guo Fan smiled lightly and walked towards the restaurant.

This building is elegant, the carved eaves reflect the sun, the painting building is flying clouds;

There is a person on the top floor who is drunk, leaning on the blue sky and looking at Wandieyun Mountain.

It is the general of the imperial court, the master of gangqi and the martial arts!

On the floor below, there are already a lot of people seated, and they are different.

Seeing Guo Fan stepping upstairs, many people were surprised.

"Who is this man?"

"The upstairs was taken by the people of Sword Valley, saying that they wanted to see distinguished guests, could it be this young man?"

Someone knew a few people and said, "He is Guo Fan, the leader of the Martial Alliance." ”

"Guo Fan!"

Whispers rang out.

"Alliance leader. ”

Huang Guzong swept his eyes around, subconsciously lowered his head, and whispered: "Those who came today are all masters from all over the world. ”

"Many gangs, large and small, in several counties of Jiangzhou, have now been ordered to enter Yanmen County. ”

"Those who can count the names include the Tianluo Sect, the Yunzong Sect, and the Jinguangmen...... , many forces. ”

"Jiujiang Shuiwu, it's weak!"

Guo Fan nodded silently.

Sikong Peng is a masterpiece, and he can rely on the power of Sword Valley to dominate many waterways in just a few decades.

But after all, it was too late, and it was only thirty or forty years since it was full.

And the power in Huang Guzong's mouth has a century-old foundation at every turn, and the area where it is located is far better than that of Yanmen County.

Each of them has at least a few innate seats.

Even if a master of Gangqi emerges, it is not impossible.

In comparison, the terrain of Yanmen County is complex and difficult to navigate, just like a shallow water, with limited heritage, and it is difficult to raise dragons.

Even if it is innate, it will not come back nine times out of ten.

Just like the ancient broken sect.

As for Guo Fan......

He's an exception!

"Wu League. ”

Seeing a few people go upstairs, one of them picked up his wine glass and said disdainfully: "This kind of force can actually be invited by the masters of Sword Valley?"

"The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake. ”

On the other side, a person raised his glass from afar: "After all, Wumeng is a local force in Yanmen County, relying on the Yanmen Mountain Range, there are some things that need to be asked to them." ”

"Brother Ping, I would like to give you a drink!"

"Not bad. ”

At the Jinguangmen table, each dressed in a gold silk robe and a white jade ribbon, a luxurious dress is particularly conspicuous.

One of them nodded when he heard this, and said: "This time the wind and clouds will meet, maybe the Wumeng can leap into the dragon gate and climb the high branches." ”

"Although Yanmen County has a dangerous terrain, it is the throat of the Yanmen Mountain Range, if it can be opened, the potential is the first in Jiangzhou!"

"That being said. ”

One of the Tianluo faction innate put down the wine glass and said slowly: "How much strength you have, how much appetite you have." ”

"It is said that the leader of the Martial Alliance defeated Sikong Peng, which is indeed remarkable at such an age, but the people below are not very angry. ”

"If you want to swallow this place, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch it!"

"Ha ......"

One person laughed: "How long has it been since the establishment of the Martial Alliance?"

"It is extraordinary to be able to gather a plate of loose sand in a short period of time, drive away the Jiujiang Shuiwu, and become the largest force in this county. ”

"Take it a step further ......"

"After all, the foundation is insufficient, and the heart is powerless!"

"Not really. ”

A Yunzong innate raised his head and signaled: "It is not possible to rely on the Martial Alliance alone, but it may not be possible with a backer." ”

“......”

In an instant, the crowd fell silent.

Upstairs.

"General Dove!"

Guo Fan stepped upstairs and arched his hand to the man who was looking at the railing: "I've been tired for a long time, Guo Mou's fault." ”

Hatotake.

This person is worthy of being a great general, with a burly and strong figure, broad shoulders and a wide body, and eyes like bells.

The scar on his face couldn't help but fail to make him break his appearance, but instead increased his heroic aura on the battlefield.

Today, he is not wearing armor, wearing a wide robe, lazily leaning against the window railing, but he has a bit of the fun of an idler in the mountains.

"Lord Guo Meng is polite. ”

Turning around, Jiu Wu nodded with a light smile: "Jiu has nothing to do, he came up first to eat meat and drink wine, and he came a little early." ”

"Sit!"

Guo Fan pulled over a seat in response, beckoned and commanded, and someone below was ready to eat.

"That's right. ”

Jiu Wu held the wine jar in his hand and said slowly: "That Wang Quan in Sword Valley is lucky not to die." ”

"You're in luck!"

Guo Fan chuckled: "It's his luck." ”

“......”

Jiu Wu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "That's right, it's Wang Quan's kid who is lucky." ”

"However, after all, he is a disciple of Sword Valley, and if something happens to him, I am afraid that today's affairs will not be good. ”

"Really?"

Guo Fan slapped open the wine jar casually, poured a bowl, and motioned to the other party to drink it all.

"General Dove thinks that Sword Valley will not let go of Guo?"

"Maybe. ”

The dove raised the altar and raised his head to drink.

"But with me today, no matter who it is, you have to sell some face, and you don't need to worry. ”

Wang Quansheng received a slap of the Nine Nether Claws, and although he did not do his best, he also fainted on the spot.

If he really died, there was a high probability that Sword Valley would not give up.

"Thank you. ”

Guo Fan thanked him knowingly.

"It's too early to talk about thanks!"

Jiu Wu glanced at him and said, "Gu Duanzong sent me a letter and asked me to let the Qin family go once. ”

"Oh. ”

Guo Fan raised his eyebrows and put down the wine bowl.

When Gu Duanzong was not successful in his studies, he was taken care of by the Qin family, but he had not been in touch for many years.

This time, Guo Fan sent a letter to explain the reason for the matter, and he didn't expect to reply so soon.

I'm afraid that some special channel is used, otherwise it would not be so fast!

"You know, too. ”

Jiu Wu sighed and said, "The thousands of elite soldiers stationed near the Qin family, this time there is not one out of ten, and the losses can be described as heavy. ”

"When something like this happens, someone has to be responsible!"

"General Dove. ”

Guo Fan gave up.

"I know what you're going to say. ”

Jiu Wu raised his hand, interrupted Guo Fan's words, and said: "I have already taken this matter, as long as the Qin family can repay the military supplies owed, the imperial court will not trouble the Qin family in the future!"

"Thank you!"

This time, Guo Fan solemnly thanked him.

"You're welcome. ”

Hatomu shook his head.

Taking down the Qin family is useless for him, it's just to vent, it's better to sell Gu Duanzong and Guo Fan to save face.

These two, one is a close confidant of the prince and a celebrity in the army, and the other has outstanding potential and a promising future.

Never lose money when you buy and sell!

"Da Da ......"

As he spoke, footsteps came from the staircase again.

The sound is steady and powerful, and the sound is the same as if it is measured with a ruler between steps.

"It's a pinch. ”

Hatotake put down the jar and looked towards the staircase.

"Da ......"

One person stepped into the top floor, glanced at the audience, and his eyes fell on Jiu Wu, and then fell on Guo Fan.

"Martial Alliance Alliance Leader Guo Fan?"

"It's me. ”

Guo Fan slowly got up and bowed his hand to the comer: "Sword Valley Killing Sword Gao Yangming?"

Gao Yangming, the sword of slaughter, is a top master who has been famous for many years and has opened his eyebrows.

"It's me. ”

The visitor nodded, and his eyes froze.

This person is not tall, and he looks even more yellow and thin, but his waist is as straight as a sword.

No!

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, in Guo Fan's perception, the other party would be a sword with a cold light shining and its edge exposed!

At this time, the sword eyes fell, and a sword intent that was pure and refined, cold and slaughtering, also suddenly emerged.

The eyes fall, and the sword arrives.

You can see everything, and you can kill people invisibly!

Guo Fan's eyes narrowed, his eyes instantly darkened, and a dark aura also emerged from his body.

Killing Intent!

The killing intent condensed from the flesh and blood battlefield came out of the body, blocking the sword intent in mid-air.

There is also a round mirror emerging in the sea of knowledge, enveloping the heart, enveloping all its own breath.

Reflection Mirror!

"Crackling ......"

In the void of nothingness, a trace of electric light suddenly flashed, which was made by the collision of invisible qi.

Gao Yangming's eyes were slightly raised.

The purity and solidity of the killing intent on the other party's body, and the speed of his reaction, were beyond his expectations.

His own sword art is the mastery of Sword Valley.

can turn fiction into reality, think to kill, out is silent, and it melts the sword intent and guilt, and few people can stop it.

Even if it is a martial artist of the same level, he may be hit if he is not careful.

And this leader of the Martial Alliance is like a martial arts psychic, and as soon as his sword moves, his killing intent surges.

There is also a layer of strange methods that block perception and make it difficult for others to detect the change of breath.

Gao Yangming squinted slightly.

In his eyes, Guo Fan on the other side is like a fluctuating mirror, reflecting everything in the outside world.

Inside.

But it was the killing intent surging, the strength fluctuating, like a volcano about to erupt, so that he couldn't help his heart beating.

But when you first enter Gangqi, you have such strength?

No wonder it can be on par with Jing Wei.

This sub.

Promising!

It's a pity......

It's not his own people, but he has a grudge.

I'm afraid I'll become an opponent in the future!

Gao Yangming's thoughts turned, and there was a murderous intent in his heart, and the cold light in his eyes also flourished.

"Ahem......"

A soft cough sounded behind him, and he woke up.

Here and now, it's not advisable to do it!

"Master Guo. ”

A person stepped out slowly, and arched his hand: "Qingwei faction Mingxin, these days have been a long time to hear the name!"

"Mingxin. ”

Guo Fan turned his head sideways.

This is an old Taoist priest with a clear appearance, a gray Taoist robe, yin and yang shoes, and a peaceful atmosphere on his body.

Like Gao Yangming, this one is also a master who has opened his eyebrows.

Even if it is placed in the entire rivers and lakes and the world.

All of them are top-notch people.

"Guo has seen the Taoist!"

"Well said, well said. ”

Mingxin nodded with a smile, stretched out his hand, and gestured to Gao Yangming, whose eyes changed beside him.

"Senior brother, what are you doing here, don't sit down yet. ”

"Hmm. ”

Gao Yangming's expression was retracted, and he sat down silently.

"Master Guo Meng is young and promising, admire and admire!"

"The two of them have profound cultivation, and Guo is really admired!"

A few people exchanged a few words of lukewarm greetings, and only after the wine and food were served on the table and the dishes had five flavors did they get to the point.

"Yanmen County has a dangerous terrain, and it has been difficult to prosper for thousands of years because it is strangled in the critical part of the Yanmen Mountain Range. ”

Gao Yangming held the wine jar in his hand and said slowly: "But the world knows that if you can reach all directions, Yanmen County is the most potential place in Jiangzhou." ”

"Hmm. ”

Guo Fan nodded and looked back: "Old Huang." ”

"Yes. ”

Huang Guzong hurriedly responded, stepped forward and said: "General Jiu is right, Yanmen County is mountainous and watery, the temperature of the four seasons does not change much, the materials are extremely prosperous, and most of the people have no worries about food and clothing. ”

"Wood, ore, herbs, gold and silver, ......"

"There are all these things in the mountains, but unfortunately it is inconvenient to communicate with the outside world, and it is difficult to get business and trade smoothly. ”

"It's more than that. ”

Guo Fan picked up his wine glass and said slowly: "There are many road checkpoints out of the county, and there are bandits from all walks of life. ”

"The goods in Yanmen County, fifty out of ten out of ten goods are good, this is still our own Wumeng. ”

Other forces are even more ruthless!

"Exactly. ”

Gao Yangming nodded and said in a muffled voice: "But this time is different from the past, this is the opportunity of the Wumeng!"

"What chance?"

Guo Fan turned his head sideways.

"The Three Absolute Demon Lords occupy the Yanmen Mountain Range, which is a disaster, but it can also become a great thing. ”

Gao Yangming's eyes flashed, and he said: "Now that bandits from all walks of life are gathered, it is a good time to exterminate them in one fell swoop." ”

"This time. ”

He fixed his eyes and said, "With the cooperation of my Sword Valley and the predecessors of the Sword Monarch, I can wipe out the bandits in one fell swoop and return the peace of Yanmen County." ”

"The imperial court will send troops to garrison various checkpoints to guard one side, and open the door to the county's trade routes. ”

"In less than ten years, Yanmen County will be the largest city in Jiangzhou!"

"Gollum ......"

Huang Guzong, who was guarding the side, rolled his throat and made a strange sound.

"Da Da ......"

Guo Fan lightly buttoned the table, paused, and said: "You are for the country and the people, Guo deeply admires." ”

He didn't think of this either.

This prince has a long-term vision and turns disadvantages into advantages.

If this matter can be accomplished, not only will the situation in Jiangzhou become stable, but it will also increase political performance and benefit the imperial court.

It's the best of both worlds!

"Humph!"

Gao Yangming snorted coldly and said, "Why should the leader of the Guo League pretend to be confused, how can we let your alliance pick up the fruit?"

The surrounding Yanmen County was pacified, and the first to benefit was undoubtedly the local Jianghu forces.

"Master Guo. ”

Mingxin smiled and said: "Before I came, I didn't know that there was a martial alliance here. ”

Guo Fan's eyes shrank.

This Taoist priest looks kind and kind-eyed, and amiable, but in fact, his mind is gloomy and his words are mysterious.

I don't know if there is a martial arts alliance here?

I'm afraid that before this, I didn't put a small martial arts alliance in my eyes at all!

With their identity and strength, they didn't intend to ignore Guo Fan, so they could forcibly sweep Yanmen County and form their own forces.

Merely.

Guo Fan, who suddenly appeared, showed amazing cultivation and potential, and even entered the eyes of the prince.

In this way, he cannot be left out at will.

We can only talk about cooperation.

That's why we have today's feast.

Guo Fan pondered for a moment and said slowly: "What are you going to do?"

"The court wants fifty percent!"

Hatotake spoke first.

"Hmm. ”

Guo Fan nodded.

Although there are many benefits, the imperial court provides the environment, trade routes, security, and also supports the food and salary of the officials and soldiers.

It is equivalent to paying taxes, and it is also considered to be deserved.

"The rest of ......"

Gao Yangming looked at it and said indifferently: "Seven or three points!"

"Seven-three?"

Guo Fan shook his head lightly: "It's not proper, Sword Valley has spent so much effort, how can it only get thirty percent?"

"In my opinion, it should be half the score!"

“......”

There was silence in the field.

Even Huang Guzong, who was waiting behind, was dumbfounded and looked at Guo Fan with a surprised expression.

"Heh......"

Gao Yangming laughed, and then laughed.

"Yes, very good!"

"Five-five, five-five!"

He looked at Guo Fan, his eyes flashed: "Gao Mou gave Guo Mengzhu this face, and he would divide the account fifty-fifty!"
