The bistro in the suburbs is also closed today. The two of them took a closer look at www.biquge.info pen "Fun" pavilion, and saw that the branches and grass in the small forest in front of them were indeed a large number of people and horses.

"It seems that the officers and soldiers have really come. Gu Shizhong's face was worried, and he quickened his pace forward, and after a while, he heard the sound of blades intersecting in front of him.

The two of them were busy low. "It's officers and soldiers. Jun Li said, "and my sister them." ”

The two groups seem to have been fighting each other for a long time. Gu Xiaomeng, Cheng Fangyu, and others led many people from the Qinglong Sect were not mediocre hands; the officers and soldiers relied on the large number of people to surround the crowd, but they could not take advantage of it.

Seeing that there was no danger for a while, the two of them felt a little relieved, and they were not in a hurry to help. I only heard Gu Shizhong sigh secretly: "With this battle, the Qinglong Sect can be regarded as having a bad relationship with the imperial court, and I am afraid that it will no longer be able to dominate southern Anhui alone." ”

"It's not really just—just to find Cheng Gongzi?" Jun Li said. "Cheng Gongzi can't have offended any royal relatives, right?"

Seeing that Gu Shizhong was silent, Jun Li said again: "Is it that the imperial court has the intention to suppress the Jianghu Sect?" Thinking about it, this matter is also like finding an excuse, and suddenly came to find trouble with the Qinglong Sect - but I still can't figure it out, my father-in-law also said yesterday that the Qinglong Sect is big in this area, which makes there are few Jianghu sects here, but it has become a force that the government and the court rely on. Then-even if the imperial court wants to give the Jianghu factions a dismount, they shouldn't pick the Qinglong Sect to open the knife!"

Gu Shizhong was still silent. Jun Li was suspicious in his heart, "Father-in-law?"

Gu Shizhong's eyes looked away, and said slowly: "Jun Li, what you asked, my father-in-law can't answer it, I only know that when the Qinglong Sect wiped out the Vermilion Bird Villa and became famous, the sect leader had great ambitions and was unwilling to live only in this place in Huizhou; The sect leader had no time to look around, so he sent your brother-in-law to delay Zhang Jun - even if your brother-in-law is powerful, not only did he dispel Zhang Jun's doubts with the benefit of his lips and tongue alone, but also led the fire to the opponent, and as a result, the Qinglong Sect borrowed the power of the court and the central government to pacify this southern Anhui area. After Zhang Jun returned to Lin'an, your brother-in-law has been urging the sect leader not to act rashly, because he knows best that the play he played in front of Zhang Jun at the beginning was only able to deceive him at that time, but in fact, he couldn't stand up to careful consideration, and it is difficult to say when the king of Qinghe County came back to his senses, he knew that he had been fooled and was used, and at that time I was afraid that he would not want to retreat so lucky. The sect leader also listened to him, and temporarily collected his forces on Huainan Second Road. Later, because the situation changed, after Zhang Jun's death, the sect leader had no intention of expanding eastward, and it was stable for more than ten years - if you want to find a reason for the current situation, unless Zhang Jun and his party made a comeback for the things of the past and wanted to settle the old accounts. ”

Speaking of this "Zhang Jun, King of Qinghe County", although Jun Li has never been to Lin'an, he also knows that in the past, in front of Gaozong Zhao Gou, Zhang Jun was not inferior to Prime Minister Qin Hui, and after retiring from his post as a general, he got a "King of Qinghe County" to retire in Lin'an, and he was really a big celebrity. If today's son Zhao Yan was still the crown prince at that time, he would not be treated well.

"That's not right, right?" Jun Li frowned. "Zhang Jun has been dead for so many years, and almost all the favored courtiers are gone, and even if the son has changed today, even if there is still the old party, where will there be soldiers in his hands? It is even more impossible to chase Cheng Gongzi under the pretext of the name of the Son of Heaven. ”

Gu Shizhong hummed and said, "What you said is not unreasonable. The tone was a little vague.

Jun Li looked at his expression, and suddenly remembered that when he asked about Cheng Ping at Cheng's house in the morning, he also encountered such a vague expression at first, and said in his heart, yes, they didn't know that my sister had told me about Cheng Gongzi's life experience, so they didn't want to speak out, but the expression of the righteous father-right now we are clearly talking about the Qinglong Sect, talking about Zhang Jun, why should he be vague? Could it be that the key to this matter is still on Cheng Gongzi's body? If this is the case-the past that the righteous father just said is not the whole picture, and it may not even be the truth, right?

He thought in his heart, but his eyes kept watching the battle in the valley, and he saw that the victory and defeat were difficult to distinguish for a long time, and he secretly wondered: "Why is there no one in the valley to help? It seems ......"

Then he raised his head: "Father-in-law, it's better to help them fight quickly, most of them have other officers and soldiers in the valley." ”

Gu Shizhong was also ready to make a move, so he nodded, grabbed the sword at his waist, stepped forward, stepped on the wind with both feet, and fell into the crowd with a shout. I saw that his beard was white, but when he struck with a sword, he was like a tiger coming out of the mountain, and he was terrified.

Cheng Fangyue was entangled by three or four people, and when Gu Shizhong rushed, two of them fell straight away. Cheng Fangyue was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Why is the old man here!" Gu Shizhong snorted and raised his voice: "Whoever dares to touch the Blue Dragon Sect must first ask the old man!"

Seeing that reinforcements came, the leader of the other party gave an order, and led the people to retreat suddenly, still forming a circle around everyone.

"Dad!" Gu Xiaomeng also flashed to his father's side, and said in a low voice, "Did you see it unintentionally?"

"I saw him. Jun Li's voice came from behind.

"Jun Li, how can you ......?"

"People from the government came to the house to look for trouble, and we felt that the situation in Qinglong Valley might be worse than originally thought, so we rushed to take a look. ”

Gu Xiaomeng snorted. "Let's work together to deal with these people first, and then I'll talk to you about it. ”

"Old Man Gu, are you sure you want to stand up for the Qinglong Sect and make our enemies?" Jun Li raised his eyes and saw that this person was in his forties, and he was no more than an ordinary simple knife in his hand, but looking at his clothes, he should be the leader of this group.

“...... Deputy Lieutenant Wang?" Gu Shizhong's tone suddenly changed, and he seemed to know him. "Why are you?"

Deputy Lieutenant Wang raised his sleeves, wiped a handful of blood from his cheeks, and sneered: "The boss said that I am familiar with Huizhou, can you send me back for this matter?" Gu Ye, this matter has nothing to do with your old age, do you want to make it difficult for the younger brother to do it for the sake of past friendships?"

"Deputy Lieutenant Wang, I should say this. Gu Shizhong said. "Since you are leading the team, then give the old man a face, don't embarrass the old man!"

"Old man, ...... you" Deputy Lieutenant Wang's face was even more difficult, and he smiled bitterly, "If it is really me who leads the team, it will be fine, I came with Master Zhang in the capital, he just took people to the city to search, leaving me here to guard the valley mouth, if such a large group of people like you go in, I am afraid I can't afford that responsibility." ”

"With you people, can you stop us?" Gu Shizhong was displeased. "The old man is also thinking about you, if you refuse to ask people to retreat, don't blame me for doing it!"

Deputy Lieutenant Wang knew that he was now losing the upper hand, his face was slightly distorted, and after a while, Fang raised his hand and ordered: "Each team retreats one mile to the east, and sits down on the spot and waits!"

Cheng Fangyue frowned and said, "Old man, let them go, wouldn't it be troublesome for the reinforcements from outside to come back." ”

"Deputy Lieutenant Wang is an acquaintance, so it shouldn't be. Now it's important to go to the valley to see. Gu Shizhong said that he was going to leave first.

"Old man...... In that case, you should not take any risks, and we will go. Cheng Fang stepped forward.

Gu Shizhong glanced at him - "What does Cheng Zuo mean is that my surname Gu is not worthy of entering this Qinglong Valley?"

"No—I didn't mean that. Cheng Fangyue had no choice but to say. "Don't you know where I stand? It's just that if this thing gets you fishy, you won't be able to do it. Since Deputy Lieutenant Wang has a relationship with the old man, it is not too late to withdraw now. ”

"Hmph, why did I, Gu Shizhong, come here? Withdraw? Since I came, how could I withdraw!"

"Old man......" Cheng Fang stopped talking more and more, as if he couldn't bear it. He didn't know that Gu Shizhong had been working hard in Huizhou for more than ten years, but because there was nothing else to do, he just had to beckon the Qinglong Sect Master to let him go back, and he was afraid that he could let go of anything. Now that the Blue Dragon Sect is in danger, if Gu Shizhong's move can give Sect Leader Tuoba Gu a chance to change his mind, how can he give up.

"Alright, let's go. Cheng Fang lowered his head, his words were heavy, but he was powerless.

Not far from the valley, I saw several people lying down. Jun Li mentioned in his heart, looking at that outfit, it should be the Qinglong Sect members.

Cheng Fang looked at it slightly, stood up, his expression was already gloomy and solemn, and said, "It should be that they are guarding the valley mouth, and they will not be attacked by surprise." I think this murderer is cruel, these people were all choked by a hand, and they were already dead at that time. Among the opponents, there seems to be a very strong master. ”

After walking a few more steps, I saw several more corpses. Jun Li has also seen dead people several times, but these people died miserably, covered in blood, he only felt uncomfortable in his heart, his scalp was also numb for a while, his hands clenched the black sword, and he bit his lip silently. The corpses were followed by a long stretch of blood dripping from the dusty earth, or condensing on the trampled blades of grass, forming a stream, zigzag line or two, presumably the wounded moving forward.

looked up along the bloodstains, but it was just empty and empty, and there was no one.
