Ma Yucheng didn't dare to show his traces too much, and quietly came to Jun Mountain. The first thing he had to do was to take a look at his junior brother Liu Rufeng, who had been away from the sect for more than ten years, and find out if it was this junior brother who was selling the Wind Dancing Willow Sword on Qixingling.

When I came to the head of Liu's house, I hid behind a tree and didn't want to show up. At this time, I happened to see Yunmengke Liu Rufeng carrying a fish basket on his back, carrying a few fish back from outside, and he didn't mess with Hongchen.

There was a completely strange young woman at the door, holding a one- or two-year-old child in her hand to greet Liu Rufeng. Ma Yucheng rubbed his eyes, doubting his senses, this was completely different from the junior brother and daughter-in-law Mei Ruxue in his memory.

Of course, this is Wei Zongyu, not Mei Ruxue.

"Zongyu, go and burn the fish. Liu Rufeng handed the fish in his hand to Wei Zongyu, took the child himself, and kissed the child on the forehead.

Wei Zongyu took the fish and entered the house, but Ma Yucheng was full of suspicions: I changed my daughter-in-law? Although the vision was very peaceful, and Liu Rufeng's family seemed to be out of the red dust, Ma Yucheng felt that this junior brother was a little unpredictable.

"Senior Brother Liu!" Ma Yucheng thought about it again and again, but decided to meet Liu Rufeng on active duty.

"Senior brother!" Liu Rufeng seemed to be quite surprised by Ma Yucheng's arrival, first stunned, and then said with a smile: "Senior brother, how can I have time to come to Junshan? I just caught a few fish, and I just happened to accompany you to drink two cups." ”

"I won't drink the wine, I'll get you in trouble if I stay here for a long time. I just want to ask where Senior Sister Mei went. Ma Yucheng was still standing under the tree, and he had no intention of entering Liu Rufeng's house.

Liu Rufeng's face was a little unnatural, and he muttered for a while before saying, "Ruxue left early, and I don't know where to go." ”

Of course, Ma Yucheng would not be fooled by a sentence, and then asked: "How did she leave? How could she leave your Yunmengke? Who is this now? What is the origin?"

Liu Rufeng's words were flustered, avoiding the important and light, and said: "Ruxue left without leaving anything." This is the girl of the Wei family in Zhongnan Mountain. ”

"I know, junior brother cherishes. Ma Yucheng didn't say much anymore, and went away, and the voice was far away.

Liu Rufeng shouted at Ma Yucheng's back: "Senior brother, the martial arts are all targeting you, take care!" There was a slight sneer on his face, which was extremely inconsistent with the meaning.

Ma Yucheng felt that if he wanted to investigate his junior brother, he had to start with Mei Ruxue. He went straight to Zhongnan Mountain to see what Wei Zongyu came from.

It didn't take much trouble for him to find Weijiazhuang and sneak under the eaves of the porch quietly. The results of the dive were astonishing. Naturally, there is no news of Mei Ruxue here, but I met Wei Zongying, a good player in the fast knife gate, Langzhongxia. Wei Zongying, Wei Zongyu, I never thought that Liu Rufeng's junior brother would be involved with Kuaidaomen, why is this? One lives in seclusion in Langzhong, the other lives in seclusion in Junshan, separated by thousands of miles, they are all chic and dusty people, but there is a meeting point in this Zhongnan Mountain.

"What person?" Ma Yucheng was spying on, Wei Zongying noticed the movement, a swallow through the forest, through the window to the court. Ma Yucheng reacted very quickly, Wei Zongying shouted and asked, and he arrived outside the hospital early. Wei Zongying chased after him for a while but didn't catch up, and returned to the village with a dazed expression.

This is a palatial Zhuangzi, and it is obvious that Wei Zongying's many years of career as a one-legged thief have enriched the family. Wei Zongying came back and explained a few words to his family and left in a hurry, not taking Ma Yucheng's mysterious appearance to heart too much.

At night, Ma Yucheng went and returned, he hadn't fully figured out the relationship between Wei Zongying and Wei Jiazhuang, so he wouldn't leave in a daze.

He was still lurking under the eaves, listening to the movement inside. Several people in the hall breathed heavily, not like people in the martial arts.

A voice said: "There must be a lot of treasures in the tribute of Dali." ”

Another voice said: "That's natural, I don't know if the young master and uncle can succeed smoothly." ”

In just two sentences, Ma Yucheng can basically determine that Wei Zongying is the young master of Weijiazhuang, and his uncle should be his junior brother Liu Rujian. Are they going to rob the tribute?

The voice that spoke first said: "I originally wanted to do it in Mao'er Ridge, but the young master looked for my uncle a few times but didn't find it, and I have already passed Mao'er Ridge at this time, I don't know where they chose to do it." ”

Another voice said, "The goods are still on the way, and the road will be on the water." Then the hall stopped talking.

The goods are still on the way, and the road will be on the water. Ma Yucheng left Weijiazhuang, silently reciting this sentence in his heart as he walked. Did they choose to lose this tribute on the ship? Ma Yucheng thought: I can't let them succeed. The life of the Great Song Dynasty was not easy, and the anti-gold and anti-Mongolian resistance needed money and food, how could they be allowed to plunder the national treasures!

However, it is said that the Dali country, the ancestor of the Bai clan, Duan, was originally a general of the Yan Luofeng tribe, and he was promoted because of his military exploits, and Duan Siping was appointed as the envoy of the Tonghai Festival, covering a vast area and establishing the country. After hundreds of years of changes, now King Duan Xiangxing is incompetent, and his power is on the sidelines, and it is all up to Prime Minister Gao Taixiang to control state affairs. Tubo in the west of Dali is a **** country, at this time the state affairs are chaotic, the Nyingma faction, the Kagyu faction, and the Gelug faction still insist on their own national system, but the leader of the Sakya faction, Pasipa accepted the title of Temujin, believing that submitting to Mongolia is the correct way to survive.

Pas-pa accepted the will of the Great Khan and often harassed the Dali border. And Gao Taixiang was most worried that the Mongolian iron cavalry would go south through the territory of Ba Sipa, so he had a strategic need to jointly resist Mongolia with the Great Song Dynasty. He ordered a batch of gold, silver and jewelry, escorted by the general Qualcomm, and wanted to go to Lin'an Song Ting.

The Gao family is in Dali, which can be described as powerful. At that time, Gao Shengtai once forced Duan Zhengming to take the throne, and later returned to the Duan clan due to the opposition of the ministries, but he was always in power.

Although this Qualcomm is a general, he is a drunken man, leading soldiers, holding tribute, all the way over the mountains and mountains, under the banner of high characters, but no bandits covet it. At the foot of Hengshan Mountain, the land route was changed to a waterway, and the official ship was changed, and the Xiangjiang River was crossed in a big way, and the Dongting was crossed, and the wind sailed into the Yangtze River. I didn't calculate the itinerary this day, and it was dark before I docked at the port, so I had to moor the ship under the red cliff.

This is the ancient battlefield of the Three Kingdoms, after Zhou Yu set a fire, it became the hometown of the unjust ghosts, and few people lived. Qualcomm saw that the surrounding reeds were dense, and there were no people around, and he was very lonely. Originally, this kind of place should be vigilant against robbers, but Qualcomm did not think so, heard that it was not far from Puzhou, so he hung the "high" flag on the ship, and brought two entourages to the shore, rode lightly in civilian clothes, and asked for flowers and willows.

Liu Rufeng fishes every day in Dongting, waiting for the tribute boat with a high-character flag. When the Qualcomm ship came, he quietly followed Wei Zongying, and never relaxed for a moment. He and Wei Zongying have cooperated for many years, and they have joined forces to do the work of a one-legged thief, and they have always had clean hands and feet, and they have never left a living mouth. I heard that this Qualcomm martial arts is strong, and it is a general who can recruit soldiers who are accustomed to war, so he didn't dare to start.

I was very happy to see Qualcomm leave the ship on a light hat this night. When the night was quiet, there was no fishing fire around, and the two of them masked their faces, and suddenly got on the boat with a sword and a sword. One of the two killed from the bow to the stern, and the other from the stern to the bow. In the blink of an eye, a hundred and ten living beings have become unjust ghosts.

The two of them found the tribute box, picked up the valuable package and carried it, and were about to burn the ship, but when they saw a black shadow galloping from a distance, they threw the torch, jumped into the river, and soon disappeared without a trace.

The person who came was Ma Yucheng, he guessed that Wei Zongying and they were going to do it on the ship, but they didn't know where to do it, so they finally inquired about the location of the high-character boat, and hurried to catch up with the future, but they were still one step late, and there was no one alive on the boat.

He lit a torch and carefully examined the wounds of the victims, and basically determined that the corpses from the bow to the stern of the ship were all killed by the knife technique of the fast knife door, and the stern of the ship was in the direction of the bow of the ship, which was very similar to the death of the willow sword in the return wind.

If it was really the two of them joining forces? Ma Yucheng secretly wondered.

"Thief, good job!" An angry curse came from the shore, and Gao Tong happened to return to the boat at this time, and pounced on Ma Yucheng with a mistake in both palms. His two entourages were also carefully selected good hands, and the three Dali masters besieged him, making Ma Yucheng busy for a while.

The three of Qualcomm are all desperate, and if they lose their tribute, they will be killed, so they can't help but be angry. But the three of them naturally couldn't take Ma Yucheng. The opinion was inexplicable, Ma Yu grew up with a sword, didn't bother to entangle with them, and went ashore directly.

But Qualcomm refused to give up, let the boat go straight to Lin'an, blamed Ma Yucheng for the robbery of the boatload of corpses and tribute, and made a seal to report to the Song court. carried out anger and sent a sea fishing document to arrest the general Ma Yucheng. Ma Yucheng's troubles are no longer just the entanglement of martial arts figures, but also the officials of those large and small yamen, who are quick to catch him, and also treat him as fat.
