Maple Leaf City.

Wanmatang Dart Bureau.

The once lively Wanma Hall is now a matter of people.

Dressed in white linen, the spirit flags are flying, and a generation of heroes has passed away suddenly. The guests who went to mourn were all heartbroken and burst into tears.

Zhuo Qingyan bit her lip, didn't say a word, and knelt silently in front of the spirit, her face was blue and her eyes were confused.

Tong Erniu was in front of the house and behind the house.

County Lieutenant Lu Chuan came to the spirit, squatted on the ground, and said to Zhuo Qingyan's mother and daughter: "The Qizhou Mansion has issued a sea fishing document, ordering Qizhou to arrest the murderer, Zhuo Da's family has been famous all his life, and we will naturally do our best, and I hope that Mrs. Zhuo and Miss Zhuo will mourn and change!"

Mrs. Zhuo hurriedly bowed her head and said, "Thank you, sir!"

Zhuo Qingyan looked at the coffin blankly, and asked hatefully, "Who killed my father?"

"Judging from the modus operandi, it is very likely that the enemy will take revenge. Zhuo Da's body has eleven unique secret weapons of the Tang Sect, three knife wounds and five sword wounds, but the fatal wound is in the throat, like an Emei thorn. Lu Chuan analyzed.

Zhuo Qingyan wanted to cry without tears, her little face turned red, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Where is the location where my father was attacked?"

"The valley of red leaves a hundred miles away. All the dart divisions were wiped out, not a single one was left alive, and the red goods were swept away, which was no longer a simple vendetta, but a murderous killing. Because it is located at the junction of Qizhou and Yuzhou, the case has been handed over to the Yuzhou government. The two states have already launched a search near the Red Leaf Valley, and it is impossible for such a large dart team to disappear out of thin air. Lu Chuan said cautiously.

Zhuo Qingyan nodded, and said gloomily: "Thank you, Lord Lu, I hope that my father's funeral will be in charge of the adult, I have a daughter's family, I can't lead the flag out of the funeral, and Brother Feng is not around..."

"I'll carry the flag. Tong Erniu interjected: "I carry the banner for Brother Feng." ”

Lu Chuan nodded: "You and Mu Dongfeng are like brothers, and Zhuo Da treats you like father and son, okay, Tong Erniu, you come to carry the flag." It's not too early, get up for the funeral!"

The music of mourning and the crying began.

In front of the grave.

Zhuo Qingyan was very sad, but her tears had dried up. She kowtowed three and murmured, "Daddy, my daughter swears here, not to take revenge, not to be a man!"

Mrs. Zhuo picked up Zhuo Qingyan and whispered Zhuo Qingyan's name: "Wan'er, people can't be resurrected after death, and revenge needs to be discussed in the long run. ”

Zhuo Qingyan said: "Brother Feng's master, Qingyun Dao Chang, sent a letter a month ago, asking me and my father to go to Yuntai Mountain to meet. Now that my dad has been killed, the clues are fleeting, and I can't wait any longer. Mother, I'll leave for the Red Leaf Valley tomorrow, and you wait at home for Brother Feng to come back, and let him go to the Red Leaf Valley to find me. The affairs of the family are taken care of by Brother Erniu, I will disband the dart bureau first, and leave the lotus to take care of your daily life. Daddy's murder was not done by one person, and if my daughter doesn't set off now, I'm worried that if the clue is broken, it will be difficult to find the enemy again. ”

Mrs. Zhuo said helplessly: "But after all, you are a daughter, and you have revenge..."

"Mother, you don't have to persuade me anymore. I have made up my mind, I will definitely not ignore my father's death, as a child, when revenge will be avenged!" Zhuo Qingyan's eyes showed tenacity, and said: "As for the identity issue, I will disguise myself as a man and go to the Red Leaf Valley, and my mother doesn't have to worry." ”

Early the next morning, Zhuo Qingyan packed up, dressed in men's clothes, heroic, holding the Qingfeng sword in his hand, and the red horse under his crotch, and Mrs. Zhuo and Tong Erniu hurriedly said goodbye outside Maple Leaf City, and rushed to the Red Leaf Valley alone.

At noon, I will shoot at the Baiwei Dumpling Restaurant in Furong Town.

The store is full of merchants passing by in a hurry.

Zhuo Qingyan chose a corner to sit down, asked for a dumpling, and waited boredly. At this time, an old man in a Confucian shirt walked into the store, half a foot and a half, and his eyes were bright.

Zhuo Qingyan glanced at the old man twice, and the old man glanced at the crowded guests in the store, came to Zhuo Qingyan's side, and said, "Little brother, is it convenient to share a table?"

Zhuo Qingyan took away the Qingfeng sword and the package, and said, "Please take a seat!"

The old man in Confucian shirt is none other than Chu Banjian, one of the three elders of the rivers and lakes.

Chu Banjian sat down with a smile and greeted Xiao Er'er: "A leek, egg dumpling, a sauced beef, and a pot of bamboo leaves." ”

Then he looked at Zhuo Qingyan and asked, "Where is the little brother?"

Zhuo Qingyan said carefully: "Qizhou Maple Leaf City." ”

"Oh? Have you ever known Zhuo Bufan of the Wanmatang Dart Bureau?" asked Chu Banjian.

"I don't know. Zhuo Qingyan replied cautiously.

"Oh. Where is this going, little brother?" Chu Banjian asked casually.

"Momiji Valley. Zhuo Qingyan asked and answered.

"What's the matter?" Chu Banjian felt that the person in front of him was a little restrained, so he had nothing to say.

"Why do you want to tell you?" Zhuo Qingyan said badly.

Chu Banjian was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Little brother, you are a little too nervous." Walking the rivers and lakes, getting to know the heroes of the world, many friends and many roads! Besides, the old man can see that the little brother has a lot on his mind, and there must be something unspeakable. You and I know each other is a fate, if the little brother doesn't give up, you can talk to me, maybe I can help!"

Zhuo Qingyan's eyes blinked, and asked, "You asked Zhuo Bufan just now, what is your relationship with him?"

"Old decay Chu half-sword, known as half-sword scholar in the rivers and lakes, I am in the same door as Zhuo Bufan's master Yichen Dao master out of Wudang, and he has to call me uncle. ”

Zhuo Qingyan hurriedly got up, bowed to his luggage, and said, "The junior Zhuo Qingyan visited his uncle and ancestor, and Zhuo Bufan is his father. ”

Chu Banjian was happy and said, "Such a coincidence, the child sits quickly." I haven't seen your father for many years, so I wonder if he's always been good?"

Zhuo Qingyan's eyes were filled with tears, and he cried: "Don't hide it from my uncle and ancestor, my father was assassinated three days ago, and he has already died. ”

"What, dead, who did it?" Chu Banjian's eyes widened angrily.

"The younger generation didn't know that my father marched to the Red Leaf Valley three days ago, and was besieged by a group of Jianghu guests, and the whole army was wiped out. Daddy was hit by three knives and five swords, eleven Tangmen secret weapons, fatally wounded in the throat, stabbed by Emei, and unfortunately died. In order to avenge their father, the younger generation had to disguise herself as a man and go to the Red Leaf Valley to investigate the cause of her father's death. ”

"Are you a girl?" Chu Banjian frowned.

"Yes, the younger Zhuo Qingyan is my father's only daughter. ”

"That's not right! A few days ago, I met Brother Qingyun Dao in Yuntai Mountain, and I saw two apprentices of him, one of them is not Zhuo Bufan's son, your younger brother?"

"Uncle Shi has seen Brother Feng, it's great. He is the adopted son of my father, named Mu Dongfeng. Where are they?" Zhuo Qingyan was overjoyed.

"The old man has left beforehand, and it is estimated that they have already left Yuntai Mountain, so let's do it, since you and I have met. The old man accompanies you to the Red Leaf Valley to look for clues and see if you can avenge your father. Chu Banjian took the dumplings sent by Xiao Er'er and said with a straight face.

"Thank you Uncle Shi for your help, the younger generation is grateful!" Zhuo Qingyan stood up again and bowed in thanks.

Chu Banjian glanced back and whispered, "But you have to do me a favor first, the tail behind me has followed me all the way." ”
