Hearing this sentence "Shen Hero", everyone was quite surprised, thinking that it was Shen Yuan's old acquaintance, but they were also quite puzzled when they looked at Shen Yuan's appearance.

Shen Yuan looked the leading official up and down, that man was burly, with a dark complexion, a dense beard and hair, slightly white temples, and he was nearly fifty years old, but looking at his appearance and demeanor, the heroic strength of the border army could not be hidden.

Moreover, Shen Yuan also looked at this person's kind face, as if he had seen it somewhere.

After thinking about it for a while, Shen Yuan asked, "The official family has met with a certain person, why do you recognize Shen?"

The leader laughed and said: "Shen Yingying is a noble person who forgets things, a certain family was killing Hukou back then, it was under the command of General Jiang Wan, more than two months ago in the battle outside the pass, a certain with General Jiang Wan rushed out of the pass to meet the enemy, after the Tatar army suddenly appeared, trapped in the enemy, fortunately Shen Yingying and Zhong Buying, Zhao Hanqing two heroes shot to capture the flag and kill the general, I waited for more than 200 people to be able to return with their lives!"

Shen Yuan suddenly realized when he heard this, and said: "It's hard to look at it, it turns out to be Jiang Jianjun's command, I don't know the name of the adult, why did you come here now?"

The official said: "My surname is Chen, and my single name is a road character, as for why I came here, this matter is a long story." Turning the conversation, he then asked, "Then again, why is Shen Yingying here, and what is going on in this house?"

Shen Yuan said: "The corpse in the house, one is called He Youdao, and the other is his apprentice, this master and apprentice killed my whole family, and I have a deep blood feud, I wanted to kill the enemy, but the world is impermanent, but I carelessly fell into the poison of He Youdao, so that my martial arts were lost, and I almost died." ”

As he spoke, Shen Yuan introduced a few people around him, and when Chen Lu heard what he said, he immediately felt admiration, and hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, and then listened to Shen Yuan continue: "Although these two people came with us all the way, it was indeed their master and apprentice who killed each other, and they really have nothing to do with us. It's a pity that I can't use it, hey!"

At the end of the words, Shen Yuan sighed heavily.

After hearing this, Chen Lu pondered left and right for a moment, and arched his hand: "Shen Yingying is a hero, what he said must be true, even so," he turned his head and said to a few of his subordinates, "Brothers, how can there be a Taoist master and apprentice suspicion and cannibalism in this murder case, just call someone to collect the body, and there is no need to alarm Shangguan." ”

Several of his men answered, and sent one of them to summon someone.

Shen Yuan said again: "Two months ago, the Tatars sent troops to kill Hukou and Weibao at the same time, haven't you thought about why the Tatars know everything about my Datongbian?"

Chen Lu waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "Shen Yingying doesn't know anything, a certain family is just a pawn who charges into battle, how can he know this? ”

Shen Yuan shook his head slightly, and at this time, the shopkeeper interjected: "Chen Tou, it is better to talk to the guest officer in the hall." ”

Everyone answered, and entered the hall together, and the shopkeeper brought tea to them, and they were invited to sit down.

Chen Lu followed Fang Cai's words and asked: "Fang Cai saw that Shen Yingying had a deep meaning, and a certain family did have some doubts in his heart, since Shen Yingying knew the inside story, why don't you talk to a certain family, okay?"

Shen Yuan thought for a while and said: "Then He Youdao is one of the culprits, this person was originally the eagle claw of the former Jinyi Guard Commander Menda, and then for some reason he voted for Tatar, and was regarded as a guest of honor, this time it was twelve or thirteen years, at the beginning of the year, he planned to get the Datong defense map and sent it to the Tatar Khan's court, but this thief voted for the West Factory. ”

"West Factory?"

At first glance, when he heard the word Xichang, Chen Lu's face changed dramatically, and he was indignant, and said, "Don't hide it from Shen Hero, General Jiang Wan...... Hey!"

Speaking of Jiang Wan, Shen Yuan couldn't help but recall the vigorous and majestic posture among the ten thousand troops outside Hu Guan that day! A pistol iron spear made the enemy tremble even more!

But looking at Chen Lu's complexion, his heart couldn't help but tighten, and he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with General Jiang Wan?"

Chen Lu said: "Hey! In the final analysis, it's not the Xichang party that bullies others and eliminates the scourge of dissidents!"

"You mean Wang Zhi?"

Shen Yuan frowned, muttered, and said, "Could it be that Wang Zhi caused people to harm?"

Chen Lu shook his head and said: "That's not true, General Jiang is just a small boss, and he can't reach those big people." I don't know if Shen Yingying has ever heard of Wang Yue?"

Shen Yuan only said that he didn't know, and saw other people, Penglai Sword Pavilion hung alone on the sea, Ji Wanli and the others naturally didn't know these characters, Gongye He had never heard of this name, but Bai Wuying was often in the west, and when he heard the word "Wang Yue", his eyes lit up, and he said: "This person's name is like thunder." ”

Chen Lu nodded and said: "Yes, back then, the Red Salt Pond was a great victory, and the Tatar farts that were killed were boiling and urinating, and they were famous in the first war, and because of this, now they are also the secretary of the military department." ”

Shen Yuan asked, "It's normal to be rewarded for meritorious service, but what does this have to do with General Jiang Wan?"

"Haven't Shen Yingying heard the phrase 'one person attains the Tao, and the chicken and dog ascend to heaven'?"

Chen Lu retorted, "Although Wang Yue entered Beijing as a big official, but one of his cronies was transferred to Youyucheng, relying on Wang Yue to be overbearing and harm the people, General Jiang couldn't help but teach him a lesson, who knows how he repaid his master, he actually dismissed General Jiang and sent him directly to Yansui as a soldier." ”

Shen Yuan asked, "What does this have to do with Wang Zhi?"

Chen Lu slapped the table, was angry, and said: "Shen Yingying doesn't know, as early as the beginning of the establishment of the West Factory, there were rumors that Wang Yue was unrestrained and even confronted a eunuch, and this eunuch is the current Governor Wang Zhi of the West Factory!"

After Shen Yuan heard this, he was silent, but his heart was stirring up, and he said secretly: "Although I am a person in the rivers and lakes who does not understand the affairs of the court, but when I think about it carefully, I can't help but be stunned, Wang Zhi controls the military department, which is equivalent to holding half of the military power.

"Shen Yingying?"

Seeing that Shen Yuan was silent, Chen Lu couldn't help but scream, which interrupted Shen Yuan's thoughts, only to hear Shen Yuan hurriedly say, "Then how is General Lin Guang now?"

Chen Lu said: "General Lin was also implicated for protecting General Jiang, but fortunately, he only punished Yu Lu, which is not a big deal. ”

"Is this why Lord Chen is here?"

Chen Lu nodded and said: "Yes, but it's not degraded, a certain family is a local, and he asked someone to make some money, which can be regarded as coming back to find an errand and make a living." ”

Shen Yuan sighed again: "Now that my martial arts have been lost, like a wasted person, I originally planned to take revenge, so I joined the army, and I can also serve the country, I came to the world in vain, and now everything is restless......"

Chen Lu was stunned, hurriedly got up and hugged his fist, and said: "It's me who is reckless, Shen Yingying is chivalrous, if the martial arts are still there, he will definitely be uneven, but now it has added a lot of troubles, and I really don't want to teach a certain family." ”

Gongyehe suddenly snorted coldly, which frightened Chen Lu and the others, but he heard Gongyehe scold: "Stinky boy, where do you look like an apprentice taught by Lao Tzu!"

Hearing that he was talking about Shen Yuan, Chen Lu and the others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then listened to Gongye and said, "Those ones have anything to do with you?

After saying that, he glared at Chen Lu and the others, although Chen Lu was experienced in a hundred battles, but the evil aura on Gongye and his body was not something he could resist.

Busy bowed again, and said: "Shen Yingying, then I won't bother you, I will take care of it, old-timers, I will leave later." ”

After Chen Lu and the others left, Shen Yuan and the others discussed it, and decided to set off immediately, so that they could gather with He Nanxu and Zhong Buyi as soon as possible.

At the same time, in the yamen of the Beijing West Factory, Wang Zhi sat in the main hall, and was reading the book in his hand, when a brocade guard came to report: "The factory supervisor, Wang Yue, the secretary of the military department, is asking to see outside!"

Wang Zhi closed the book and said, "Please." ”

Then he put the book on the table, and saw three words written on the cover: "Yijin Sutra".
