The moon was obscured by clouds, with only a slight glimmer of starlight. The fields and ditches on both sides of the road are full of weeds, and the sound of frogs and insects is loud.

In the distance of the post road, the sound of horses' hooves gradually sounded, and the closer it got, the louder it became, the sound of insects and frogs gradually became inaudible, and the light from the torches gradually galloped closer.

Eight darts that can be called in Jingzhou are all carrying knives at their waists, holding the reins in one hand and torches in the other, four in front and four in the back, and in the middle is a black horse, on the horseback is a spirited old man, his temples are bulging high, and his eyes are shining, even in the dark night, he can see through the light.

The old man grabbed the reins, and the other eight stopped their horses.

The eight of them all looked at the old man.

The old man groaned slightly, looked at the dark mountain shadow, and said: "Now it is just over an hour before dawn, we have reached the north of Wulong Mountain, first rest for a while, let the horses eat some forage, and then turn over the mountain to Ping'an County, the sky is just bright."

All eight dart masters turned over and dismounted, and the word "dragon" was written on the saddle.

These dart masters are all from the Long clan in Ping'an County.

Long's wealth is abundant, the family property is innumerable, and the foundation is the dart board, and the Wancheng dart game under its name is one of the three major dart games with the Longmen dart board and the Sanhui dart board.

The so-called dart game, receiving money from people, relying on cultivation, is dedicated to protecting people's property or ensuring personal safety, also known as dart.

When the dart master goes on the road, he must not only have real skills, but also know the lip dictionary on the rivers and lakes, that is, the jargon, in order to deal with the green forest characters who robbed the darts. If you spot thorns in the middle of the road, be prepared to meet the robbers. If you climb the friendship and agree with each other, you can pass smoothly, otherwise you have to rely on your skills to distinguish the winners and losers.

The dart game not only depends on the robbers on the rivers and lakes to survive, but also has a close relationship with the rivers and lakes. Some Jianghu rangers who have received the attention of the government, if they live in the dart bureau after entering the city, the government cannot arrest them. First, because the dart game is powerful, and secondly, the dart game often has a backer, such as the backstage of the Long's Wancheng dart game is Jing Zen Buddhism.

Today's Wancheng Dart Bureau has more than 400 dart masters, mixed fish and dragons, both from the green forest and horses, and from the rivers and lakes, and there are many good players who have retired from the official army, these people are not only good, but also have many local relationships, whether they are underworld or white, maybe they are the robes and brothers who have fought side by side together, or the green forest brothers who have been together in the rivers and lakes, and they will naturally give a little thin face. Dart game walks the world, in the final analysis, it depends on personal connections, rather than blind force, if it can run rampant in the north and south of the river by force alone, then what kind of dart game can be opened, it can already be opened a sect, and it has become a strong party, twelve sects of the righteous path and ten sects of the evil way, nothing more.

Now Long Roaring Cloud has not personally walked the dart, secluded behind the scenes, the head of the dart bureau Luo Yixiao, is a rare age, since the age of twenty out to break through the dart, with a pair of meat palms and a single knife to fight all over the Jingzhou green forest invincible hand, forty years old and Long's cooperation to create Wancheng dart bureau, in Jingzhou for 30 years, experienced a lot of wind and waves, has always stood still, there is a saying in the green forest: "Ning provoke Yama, do not provoke Lao Luo", so he has a "Yama knife" title.

On the boundary of Jingzhou, when you see Luo Yixiao's dart flag, whether it is a white road or a black road, you must give three points of thin noodles and call it "Luo Lao Dart Head". This old dart head wanted to retire at the age of seventy and be a rich man to tease his grandson, but he was suffering from the lack of a suitable successor to the head of the dart, so he could only encourage him to maintain, and now it is the third year.

Wancheng dart game, taken from the meaning of "everything is done", standing dart for more than 30 years, never made a big mistake, plus there is Jing Zen Buddhism as a backer, so the business has been booming for 30 years, ranking one of the three major dart games. Who would have thought that this year was a big mess, the dart bureau was ordered by the right attendant of the Ministry of Industry to escort a batch of strange stone gangs, starting from Jiangzhou City Bosi and transporting them to Dijing, but there was a mistake on the way, not only the strange stone gang was robbed, but also killed and injured many powerful darts heads.

This matter caused the boss of the government to be unhappy, although the arrest of the murderer, its own criminal department and the local punishment according to the people of the prosecutor's department, but the rest of the strange stone gang is not allowed to be lost, this time the Ministry of Industry named him to personally go out, although Luo Yixiao is old, his blood is declining day by day, and his spirit is becoming less and less, but he relies on the "Da Yuan Dan" of Jing Zen Buddhism He knew that this errand was related to the reputation of the Wancheng Dart Bureau, and the stakes were very important, so he didn't dare to ignore it, and he transferred eight good players from the Dart Bureau from all over the country, plus the soldiers sent by the Ministry of Industry, together with the capture of the local Yamen, there were more than 100 people, and they were heavily guarded along the way, but they were safe and sound.

After sending this trip to the Strange Stone Gang, Luo Yixiao did not stay in the imperial capital for more, and returned to Jingzhou directly, after all, the current imperial capital is not as good as before, there are more people in the evil way, and he is a foreigner, he does not know the depth of the water and the shallowness of the water, or it is better to stay away from such a place of right and wrong.

After finally entering the territory of Shuiyang Mansion in Jingzhou, the old dart head breathed a sigh of relief. It is said that the older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous they are, this is not bad at all, when I was young, I felt that the world was big and I could go, but when I was old, I lost the sharpness of my youth, and I just wanted to guard the one acre and three points of land in front of me, and live a peaceful life. This trip to the far gate made Luo Yixiao, who had not been a dart man for a long time, feel a little lazy. But when he got the news, all the laziness and fatigue were swept away in an instant.

Someone wants to shoot a "Blood Dragon Pill".

"Blood Dragon Pill" for a martial artist under the three realms of supernatural transformation, especially for an old martial artist, its important significance is self-evident, the reason why he wants to cooperate with the Dragon Clan, a large part of the reason is also for the Jingzen Temple's unique "Da Yuan Dan", if you can be on the basis of the "Great Yuan Dan", and then with the "Blood Dragon Pill" of the Mai Nu Sect, to reconcile the blood and qi Yin and Yang, although it can not rejuvenate or extend life, but can reshape the body, is their own meridians, qi and blood, muscles and bones back to the peak of their youth.

This is almost something that cannot be refused by Luo Yixiao, who is already in his prime.

Although he was an old Jianghu, he also had doubts, but after thinking about it, the person who delivered the news to him was his righteous son who he grew up watching, and it was on the territory of Jingzhou, so why should he be afraid of anything?

Thinking of this, this old Luo dart head of Shuiyang Mansion in Jingzhou couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"Who!" Suddenly, a dart head shouted loudly, interrupting the old man's thoughts.

The old man put away his thoughts, turned his head to look, and rode out of the woods on the side of the road in front of the post road.

All eight darts drew their knives and looked at the incoming man warily.

The other party led the horse in one hand and held a lantern in the other, and his footsteps did not stop.

"Stop!" shouted the middle-aged dart head standing at the front.

"It's me. The man on the other side still led the horse, his face was illuminated by torches, he looked like he was in his thirties, and he had a few long whiskers under his chin, quite handsome and chic.

This person is Luo Zhen, the righteous son of Luo Lao's darthead.

Luo Zhen is an orphan, I don't know who my father is, he was abandoned on the side of the road in his infancy, and was picked up by Luo Lao Dart Head passing by, and grew up with Luo Lao Dart Head since he was a child, his heart and eyes are active, and his roots and bones are good, but he already has the cultivation of holding Dan Realm in the year of his establishment, because Luo Lao Dart has no children under his knees, so Luo Zhen, the righteous son, is called Shao Dart Head in the Wancheng Dart Bureau.

The eight dart heads naturally recognized the young dart head, put the knife back into the sheath, and saluted with fists.

"Father-in-law!" Luo Zhen greeted him, looked at the old man and stopped talking.

Luo Yixiao understood and said, "Let's talk." ”

With that, the old man led Luo Zhen to a big tree on the side of the road.

The eight dart heads are all sitting in one side of the dart bureau on weekdays, and they are indispensable to welcome and send them off, and they are all proficient in human affairs.

The two of them came to a big tree, and they were dozens of feet away from the eight darts heads, and although they could vaguely see their figures, they couldn't hear their voices. The old man sat down in the shade of the tree, pointed to a round stone beside the tree, and said, "Sit down and talk." ”

Luo Zhen sat opposite the old man in an orderly manner, and slowly spoke: "Father-in-law, the matter of the 'Blood Dragon Pill' has an eyebrow. ”

The old man's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked, "What does the seller say?"

Luo Zhen said softly: "They want to have an interview with their stepfather. ”

The old man thought for a moment, nodded and said, "You go and tell them that the time is up to them and the place is up to us." ”
