Although the death of Ma Zhenren is a big loss for Wulin, it is a major event for the town to pour into the town under the mountain with so many heroes who came to mourn.

It's nearly midnight, and the town is still brightly lit, and there is no intention of stopping. Jiang Yuan had been practicing penance in the mountains with his master before, and he had never seen such a bustling night market, and lingering in it could be regarded as a rare relaxation for so long.

Suddenly, Jiang Yuan caught a glimpse of two people hiding in the shadows and talking quietly about something. The people in the rivers and lakes have some secrets, Jiang Yuan didn't want to ask more, but these two people are very familiar, they are the Liuhe gang he saw at the inn the day before yesterday!

Liuhe Gang? What are they doing here? Although Jiang Yuan's understanding of the Liuhe Gang is limited to Xu Tao's words, the sneaky appearance of these two people really disgusts Jiang Yuan. Could it be that they want to fish in troubled waters at this time and make some small moves? So which fish do they have their eye on?

The two discussed for a moment, and then sneakily slipped away. Jiang Yuan followed silently from afar.

Good boy, I'm going to see what the hell you guys do!

Jiang Yuan followed all the way, and the two entered a small courtyard, and cautiously plugged in the latch. Jiang Yuan performed light skills, jumped into the courtyard, came to the window with bated breath, dipped his fingers in some saliva to break the window screen, and secretly observed the situation in the house.

There were four people sitting at a table, one of them facing Jiang Yuan was dressed like a Tibetan monk, tall and burly, maybe the weather was too hot, he was just obliquely half draped in robes, leaking half of his chest, his bronze skin was densely tattooed with Sanskrit, extending from his chest to his face;

The person on the left is much thinner, the wide clothes are not so much on the body as on the body, from time to time from the sleeve out of the swallow-shaped touch weapon in the hand to play; it turns out that this person is a master of hidden weapons, the robe is wide to bring more hidden weapons, and the second is to hide the hand in the sleeve, and when you shoot, you can also confuse the opponent.

Sitting opposite him was a middle-aged man about the same size as Xu Tao, dressed elegantly, like a scribe, but Jiang Yuan always felt that there was a fierce murderous aura between this person's eyebrows, which was quite incommensurate with his dress, and he had a long sword in his hand, and he didn't say a word.

As for the other person with her back to Jiang Yuan, she was not very old from the way she was dressed, and she couldn't see anything else. The two men who came in behind seemed to be minions, standing aside and waiting for orders.

The west wind was blowing tightly, and the sound of the four people talking was low, Jiang Yuan could only occasionally hear a scale and a half claw when he hid outside the house, and he couldn't hear any news if he waited any longer, so he had to give up, and before a few people in the house could find out, Jiang Yuan jumped out of the hospital lightly.

After thinking about it, this matter should be informed of Chongyang Palace, not to mention that the Liuhe Gang has a bad reputation in the rivers and lakes, this sneaky method alone makes Jiang Yuan disdainful.

Jiang Yuan pondered as he walked, and suddenly someone behind him patted him on the shoulder. There were no acquaintances of Jiang Yuan here, could it be that the thieves of the Liuhe Gang chased them out? Jiang Yuan reacted extremely quickly, pressed the sword with his right hand and turned around to parry the hand on his shoulder, and quickly put on a defensive posture.

The man was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Jiang Yuan's reaction to be so intense, Jiang Yuan also saw the person who came clearly at this time, about the age of his early twenties, wearing a cyan Taoist robe - a young Taoist priest, should have nothing to do with the Liuhe Gang.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, Jiang Yuan scratched his head, and said, "What's the matter with Brother Tai?"

The Taoist priest also reacted, and said with a smile: "It's rude." Wudang is young, and he has seen Brother Tai. ”

Jiang Yuan replied: "In Xia Jiangyuan, the people of the mountains and wilderness are not worth mentioning. What's the matter?"

Li Qing said: "I am a sword idiot, I have a soft spot for famous swords in the world, if I am not mistaken, the Qingling Sword mentioned in the "Sword Spectrum" in Brother Tai's hand should be the Qingling Sword mentioned in the "Sword Spectrum". Can you lend me a look?"

"Do you know my sword?" Jiang Yuan stroked the sword body, trying to control his emotions, but his voice still couldn't stop trembling: "Then do you know the story of this sword?"

Li Qing took the Qingling Sword, his wrist shook slightly, the sword body made a crisp trill, and the strange lines on the sword body were particularly clear in the moonlight, "This sword is forged using the ancient method of Spring and Autumn Period, but this method has long been lost, and the swordsmiths have worked hard to restore it for hundreds of years, but there are very few people who can see one or two." "Sword Spectrum" said that this sword came from the hand of Han Zhuo, a sword-casting master of the previous dynasty, and it was extremely sharp and unusually sharp, but unfortunately there was no record of success, so it was not known. ”

"Then who has this sword been in the hands of anyone in recent years?" Jiang Yuan asked eagerly.

"This ...... I don't know, "Li Qing is a little embarrassed, although he likes famous swords, but after all, he is only in his twenties, and his experience in the rivers and lakes is limited, how can the ins and outs of a sword be clear?" My master, Lingfeng Zhenren, is a master of the sword path, maybe he will know. ”

Jiang Yuan bowed his hand and thanked him: "Thank you Brother Tai for your advice, after this incident, I will definitely go to Wudang Mountain to ask Lingfeng Zhenren for advice, and when the time comes, I will also ask Brother Li for introduction." ”

Li Qing said: "Brother Tai is polite. My master has always been approachable, and he will definitely know everything. Brother Tai was absent-minded just now, did he have something on his mind?"

When Jiang Yuan heard this, he asked the point: "Although I have never known Ma Zhenren in my life, I admire my predecessors very much, and I wanted to come to see the legacy of the ancestors, but I found that some rats were secretly doing trouble, and I was thinking about whether to inform the master's family." ”

"Rats, who dares to make trouble on the territory of Chongyang Palace?" said Qing Qing in surprise.

"There is a gang of thieves from the Liuhe Gang hiding near here, and I eavesdropped on their conversation, but unfortunately the wind is too loud and I don't hear any news. ”

"Liuhe Gang, what a big boldness!Do you think that without Ma Zhenren in charge, Chongyang Palace can be bullied by others?" Li Qing sneered: "But they really chose a good time, and now that Chongyang Palace is mixed, it is really convenient for them to start." ”

"What do you think?"

Li Qing pondered for a moment and said: "In the past few days, most of the rivers and lakes have been on Chongyang Palace, and the Liuhe Gang does not dare to blatantly mess around, even if they really have a conspiracy, we must have evidence first." ”

"And what do you mean?"

"Brother Jiang, do you dare to probe the details of the Liuhe Gang with me tomorrow night?"

Jiang Yuan had already visited the stronghold of the Liuhe Gang once alone, so what did it matter if he visited it again? Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "There are only a few Liuhe Gang thieves, why don't you dare?"

"Okay, tomorrow is the day of Ma Zhenren's funeral, I have to go with my uncle to see him off, Brother Jiang will wait for me in the tavern after dark tomorrow night, and let's go to see what is going on." ”
