Volume 1: Forsaken Lands Chapter 10: Little Silver

"Master, this way!"

Xiao Er said, passing through a row of plane trees and turning into an alley. At this moment, the sky has darkened, every household has lights in their hands, and from some low-walled courtyards next to it, there are a few children's laughter or the nagging of parents and relatives, which makes Kong Laosan feel both familiar and unfamiliar.

The sheep intestine path here is like a maze, if it is not for someone to lead the way, Kong Laosan himself would have to be dizzy, turn three alleys, just when Xiao Er turned left and stopped in front of an old plane tree.

"This is this house, Xiao Yinzi and his brother live here, these two people have lost their parents since they were children, and they are also poor people......"

Kong Laosan looked carefully in front of his eyes, the old paulownia tree on the left hand side did not know how many years it had grown, the trunk was carved with some crooked handwriting by some naughty children around, the door panel was tattered, and it was faintly visible that the door was behind it with a stick, and the surrounding walls were solid, made of clay, and it looked like it had just been renovated.

Xiao Er was not polite, stepped forward and knocked on the door twice, and then there were a few dog barks in the yard, but after a while, I heard a rush of footsteps behind the door, Xiao Er did not speak, the two wooden doors were opened with a "bang", Xiao Yinzi held a stick in his hand, and looked at Kong Laosan and the two with a sad face.

"Little ...... Little silver, you are ......"

Xiao Er was slightly stunned, and subconsciously jumped behind Kong Laosan, only revealing one head, and said with some concern.

"Yes...... It's you, I thought it was those crumbs from Yifan Gate who found the door, please come in, please come in......"

Xiao Yinzi said, he seemed to breathe a long sigh of relief, and hurriedly beckoned Kong Laosan and the two to enter the door, Xiao Er looked at Kong Laosan, but waved his hand and said, "This young master has an old relationship with the Iron Gang Leader of the Water and Salt Gang, I want to find you to know something, there is no malice, there is still something in the store, I will go back first!"

Xiao Er said, habitually throwing the white towel in his hand on his shoulder, and trotted away all the way.

Hearing what Xiao Er said, Xiao Yinzi looked at Kong Laosan in surprise, and seemed to have some doubts, and stood in front of Kong Laosan for a while without saying hello.

"Don't worry, let's not talk about other things, I heard that your brother was injured, if you don't mind, I can go and see first, I learned some medical skills with a wandering Taoist, and it should still have some effect on dealing with ordinary injuries!"

Hearing what Kong Laosan said, Xiao Yinzi hesitated, and when he saw that Kong Laosan really didn't look like a villain, he beckoned Kong Laosan into the house.

The courtyard where Xiao Yinzi was located was quite large, there were only two rooms in it, and a thin wolf dog was tied to the trunk of a dead willow tree at the east end, barking at Kong Laosan.

As Xiao Yinzi walked into the south room, Kong Laosan saw an emaciated figure lying on the bed at a glance, sixteen or seventeen years old, with medicine belts wrapped around his body, but the injuries were really bad, these medicine belts were soaked in blood, looking like a blood-stained mummy.

The room was slightly dim, with only an oil lamp on, and it was a little deserted.

"My brother is the henchman of the Iron Gang leader of the Water and Salt Gang, he was sent this morning, and he is still unconscious, master, if there is any way to save my brother's life, even if I exchange my life, I am willing!"

Xiao Yinzi said, already crying, the two brothers have been dependent on each other since childhood, and their feelings are naturally very deep, seeing that their brother is so seriously injured, they are a little at a loss for a while.

Kong Laosan came to the side of the bed, put his fingers on Xiao Yu'er's pulse, frowned after a while, stopped Xiao Yinzi who wanted to say something, and took out a medicine bottle from the bag hanging from his waist, "Your brother mainly lost too much blood, this bottle of blood qi pill can replenish blood qi, in addition, I have some healing medicine here, melt it into a bowl of water, put all the wounds on him, and he should be able to heal after a month of rest!"

Kong Laosan said, threw the medicine bottle in his hand to Xiao Yinzi, and took out a thumb-sized emerald bottle from his arms and placed it on the table, "Can you tell me something about the Iron Gang Master now?"

Xiao Yinzi was already a little stunned by Kong Laosan's series of actions, and when he heard this, Xiao Yinzi looked at Xiao Yu'er on the bed, gritted his teeth and said, "You must promise that it will not be unfavorable to the Iron Gang Master, otherwise...... Otherwise I'm ......"

"Your brother is loyal to the Iron Gang Master. Hehe, I promise, I don't know if this Iron Gang Leader is the person I'm looking for, and if not, I don't bother to bother with the gossip between these gangs!"

Kong Laosan said, found a stool and sat down.

"When our brother was about to starve to death, it was the Iron Gang Master who saved us, and my brother said that the grace of saving lives must be repaid with life, and whoever wants to be unfavorable to the Iron Gang Master will first step on the corpses of our two brothers. ”

Xiao Yinzi said in a serious tone, and when he saw Kong Laosan's assurance, he seemed to settle down and told the news of the Iron Gang Master that he knew, as for why his brother was cut like this by the people of Yifanmen, I don't know.

"So, this Iron Gang Master came from somewhere else about seven or eight years ago? Do you know where this Iron Gang Master lives?"

Kong Laosan suppressed the somewhat undulating mood in his heart, and asked with a blank opening on his face.

"I know, but that place belongs to the sphere of influence of the Water and Salt Gang, and ordinary people can't enter it at all......"

Before Xiao Yinzi finished speaking, he was interrupted by Kong Laosan, "You have to take care of your brother, just tell me the specific direction, you don't have to worry about other things!"

In less than half an hour, after Kong Laosan left some silver, he came out of Xiao Yinzi's house and walked directly to the east of Yu'er City, according to Xiao Yinzi, the headquarters of the Water and Salt Gang was there.

An hour later, the surrounding houses gradually became scarce, surrounded by some high-walled compounds, not like they were used to live in people, but like some righteous halls and the like, Kong Laosan walked to a secluded place, but he no longer moved forward, stopped, turned around and glanced at the eaves, "Your Excellency has been with you all the way from the Donglai Inn, don't you plan to come out to see it now?"

Kong Laosan's voice fell, but there was no movement around, seeing this, Kong Laosan snorted coldly, and he was not polite, his hand flipped, and a piece of rune paper fell in his hand, just about to be sacrificed, a slightly undulating voice came from behind the eaves on the left, "Slow!"

At the same time as the voice fell, the figure had already turned over, and between the ups and downs, it had already come to Kong Laosan. The body is extremely wonderful, and the person who came is actually a good hand in the rivers and lakes.

Seeing this, Kong Laosan couldn't help but secretly become vigilant, although as long as he has not reached the realm of a martial artist, he will not be a threat to himself, but the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and he doesn't want to capsize in the gutter.

The person in front of him was dressed as a scribe, in his thirties, his hair was covered with a palm-sized piece of cyan gauze, and he was carrying a sword on his back, it was the person he had just met in the Donglai Inn, and at this moment, the middle-aged scribe was staring at Kong Laosan with a fiery face, and a touch of extreme longing flashed on his face.

Kong Laosan, who watched this scene, was a little cold, but his face was calm, and he said slowly, "I'm a little curious, Your Excellency and I have never met, why did you come along the next way, if you can't give me a convincing reason, I don't mind killing one more person!"

As he spoke, the rune paper in his hand rubbed gently, as if it was about to be sacrificed in the next moment. The strength of the person in front of him is not weak, and he should be famous in the rivers and lakes, but he doesn't know much about these things in the rivers and lakes, and he can't judge.

"Under Su Hongzhen!"

The middle-aged scribe clasped his fists in both hands, staring at Kong Laosan's face, and seeing that the latter's expression did not fluctuate in the slightest when he heard his name, a trace of surprise flashed on Su Hongzhen's face.

"Let's talk about your purpose!"

Hearing what Kong Laosan said, the middle-aged scribe smiled bitterly, "Since leaving Nanjian Villa, I, Su Hongzhen, have been seeking to break through the inheritance techniques of the martial artists, but there are too few martial artists on the rivers and lakes, and the inheritance techniques that can reach the martial artists are even more controlled by those big families, and there are very few in the world." ”

Speaking of this, Su Hongzhen paused, glanced at Kong Laosan's direction, and saw that the latter still had a blank expression, and couldn't see the depth of his appearance, so he suddenly made a move that caught Kong Laosan off guard, and knelt down directly in front of him, "There is no order to learn, and the master is the teacher." I, Su Hong, am really obsessed with martial arts, and I hope that my master can teach me!"

Su Hongzhen said, without waiting for Kong Laosan to react, he kowtowed, and the "Bangbang" sound on the bluestone ground, and the apprentice was full of heart. It's just that Kong Laosan frowned when he heard what Su Hongzhen said, even Kong Laosan's old and spicy heart is a little absurd, once upon a time, he followed the Taoist, for a small life, pretending to be crazy and stupid every day, and always had to endure the beating and scolding of the Taoist, and now it seems to be a dream.
