Chapter 41: Breaking the Game (1)
At nightfall, Jiang Yuan and Ye Yifan staggered back to the inn, and both of them were poured a lot of wine by Miss Cangyue. Since entering the Drunken Immortal Garden, Jiang Yuan has always had a question in his throat, he didn't want to ask in the Drunken Immortal Garden just now, but now he finally couldn't help but ask: "Brother Ye, what kind of place do you say this Drunken Immortal Garden is? How can you know so many things about the rivers and lakes?"
Ye Yifan's tongue was a little bigger, and he said vaguely: "You, what kind of place are you in that Drunken Immortal Garden? Which of the guests who come and go from the south to the north is not a wealthy businessman? But have you ever heard of anyone who dares to spread wild in the Drunken Immortal Garden? Dare to set rules for these people, can it be an ordinary Qinglou? The things in the cup look all over the world, and the red powder is light and you have heard of it in all directions? No one in the rivers and lakes is more well-informed than them. As for not staying with us, it's because they didn't sell their bodies from the beginning!"
"How powerful are they?" Jiang Yuan exclaimed, "I say, how can Miss Cangyue know so much, and she also has that heart and self-cultivation, she doesn't look like a dusty woman at all." ”
"Miss Cangyue is different, she should indeed be a lady, but unfortunately, she gave birth to someone by mistake. Ye Yifan lay on the table, knocked on the table with his fingers, and when he mentioned the Cangyue girl, he was so melancholy, without waiting for Jiang Yuan to ask, he slowly said: "Her ancestors made a big mistake more than a hundred years ago, and became disloyal and unrighteous people, which caused everyone to scold them. Miss Cangyue is also a good fortune teller, and she was bought back by Liu Yanyu, the owner of Drunken Immortal Garden, at a young age, and taught her to read and write, play the piano and dance, although she is still begging for a living in this land of fireworks, she is much better than her people. ”
At the end of the Song Dynasty, Jiang Yuan had also heard a little about what Pu Shougeng did in Quanzhou, but he didn't expect that Miss Cangyue was also a descendant of this clan.
"Oh yes, you came to Yangzhou after saying goodbye that day? What about Old Man Wei and Third Master Hu who were walking with you?"
"Hu Sanye is still selling pancakes in Jiangling City, and the old man Wei originally wanted to find me to be his apprentice, but that day Zhonglin said that he would help him find an apprentice, and he would no longer pester me, and he would go back to Jiayun Mountain by himself when he left Jiangling City. Don't mention him...... When you mention him, I remember what it was like to see him for the first time...... "...... vomit" Ye Yifan didn't know what scene he remembered, and suddenly ran out and vomited violently.
This is not surprising, it is not surprising that people who live with poisonous insects and poisons all day long make some actions that are incomprehensible to ordinary people or have some unpleasant smells on their bodies, but it seems that Ye Yifan has been stimulated a little much, it has been half a year, and he can still vomit nausea when he thinks about it. Ye Yifan staggered back to the room after vomiting, and fell asleep on the table with a strong drink. Today's words of Miss Cangyue were like a guiding light, giving Jiang Yuan a direction, and Jiang Yuan could finally sleep well with peace of mind.
Early the next morning, Jiang Yuan said goodbye to Ye Yifan and set off again. At this time, I already have a plan in my heart, I don't need to rush to the Liuhe Gang, go to Fu Heng first, and ask Uncle Shi to come forward to go outside the border city to stabilize the coalition forces of various factions, I believe that Uncle Shi's reputation in the rivers and lakes will definitely make them more stable. Then he will investigate secretly, and he will be able to find out the wicked people who are troubled by it.
After making up his mind, Jiang Yuan changed his route to Jiangcheng Fufu, and Fu Heng heard about his plan and immediately took Zhong Lin and Bo Liang to the garrison of the coalition forces of various factions to persuade peace. Jiang Yuan also took advantage of the night to disguise himself and blend in.
It wasn't until he got in that Jiang Yuan realized how difficult the life of the coalition forces was. At this time, it was freezing cold, and the wind along the coast was even colder, blowing on the face like a steel knife scraping bones, and more than 1,000 people were huddled in the small ruined temple and shivering. The people of the border city refused to sell them food, so they had to go to Gangneung, a hundred miles away, to buy food. Jiang Yuan sighed in his heart, they were able to persevere in such a cold and hungry day of lack of food and clothing, which shows that the attraction of "Song Wu Cheats" is really extraordinary.
In fact, the coalition forces of various factions have also been put on this part, if they retreat at this time, then not only will they not get the "Song Wu Cheats", but they will also be laughed at by the martial arts heroes, how can people who practice martial arts be afraid of hardship?
But now that the people are protecting, and the government is also involved, they want to besiege the Liuhe Gang, but they can't do it, which Dongchang probably didn't expect.
Fu Heng's arrival gave these people a step down, but after a few words, everyone's attitude softened, after all, no one wanted to suffer here anymore. Fu Heng promised to help go to the Liuhe Gang to communicate with Qu Hanqing and investigate the murderer of He Jin, and the coalition forces of each faction retreated to Jiangling City to wait for news. Jiang Yuan mingled in the ranks of the coalition forces, carefully observing the leaders of each faction.
It's a pity that this person is so cunning that he didn't get anything for several days. Jiang Yuan secretly thought that if the murderer of He Jin was the same person as the informant of Dongchang, then this person must be He Jin's best friend, and his boxing skills were profound.
The Kongtong faction's Seven Wounds Fist is powerful, but if Shen Buxi enters the guest room alone after the meeting to talk to He Jin, He Jin will definitely not be unprepared with the "Song Wu Cheats", and he will not understand the truth that the husband is not guilty and guilty, and the rest of the factions are not good at boxing.
In this way, unless He Jin himself is an informant of Dongchang, and Dongchang's own people do not hesitate to kill their own people in order to expand the situation? Suddenly, Jiang Yuan remembered another sentence from Miss Cangyue: "So far, who has benefited the most? If it continues to develop, who will be the winner......?" The Shaolin faction and the Emei faction withdrew in time, and there was no damage, but they did not benefit, and the coalition forces of the various factions were even more miserable, enduring hunger and freezing in the barren mountains and wilderness, and the Kunlun faction was even dead, where would there be beneficiaries? Jiang Yuan had a flash of inspiration, and the beneficiaries were not absent, and He Jin's junior brother Yu Hua succeeded him as the head of the Kunlun faction, and this was the only beneficiary in this matter.
At night, Jiang Yuan hid in the dark as usual, secretly observing everyone, but unfortunately everyone did not live in one place, and all the inns in Jiangling City were full. Fortunately, there is a wild goose pagoda located in Jiangling City, the tower is seven stories high, standing on the top of the tower can overlook the whole Jiangling City, the view is excellent, and it is suitable for Jiangyuan to observe everyone.
"Huh?" As soon as Jiang Yuan turned around, he found a black shadow jumping out of the window of the inn, and in the blink of an eye, it melted into the night. That room is the room where Shin is not evil!
"Sure enough, it's you. Okay, I'll take the person who came to the joint first, and then confront him face to face, I'm not afraid that you won't recognize it. Jiang Yuan said to himself: "Catch the traitor and catch the double, and take the thief and take the stolen goods." ”
Jiang Yuan immediately set off to catch up, who knew that the man in black was not weak, if it weren't for some moonlight, Jiang Yuan was afraid that he would not be able to catch up with him. Rao is like this, next to a ruined temple, Jiang Yuan still lost people. Could it be that this person hid in the temple?
After thinking about it, this is the only possibility.
Jiang Yuan cautiously entered the temple and carefully checked the surrounding situation by the moonlight. This temple has been abandoned for a long time, and the courtyard is full of some withered leaves and weeds, if someone steps on it, there must be a sound, Jiang Yuan moved carefully, for fear of making a noise, and suddenly a not very good feeling came to his heart: Didn't the man in black find out that he deliberately attracted here?
Just when Jiang Yuan was distracted, suddenly a steel knife silently stabbed Jiang Yuan's back. Jiang Yuan hurriedly dodged this knife, turned around and drew his sword to protect him, his heart was so dangerous, this knife came steadily and ruthlessly, there was no sound, if it weren't for the shadow on the ground, I was afraid that he would be planted under this knife.
"Who are you!" Jiang Yuan asked loudly, he knew that the identity of this person must not be seen, so he just wanted to test the other party.
The man sneered gloomily and said, "What good is it to talk more about those who are about to die? Today is either you die or I die!"
Jiang Yuan also sneered: "If you don't say it, I know that you are from Dongchang." If you can't complete the task, or if there is a flaw in the task, you will be killed, which is the rule of the East Factory. Looks like you're going to die today!"
"That's not necessarily, kill you, and I'll live!"
As soon as the words came out, the man immediately swung his sword and slashed at Huashan with the force of slashing at Huashan, directly hitting Jiang Yuan's left shoulder! However, he didn't know that Jiang Yuan had practiced the Sancai swordsmanship, and what he was best at was to strike backwards.
Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry, he steadily raised his sword to parry, and the strength of the knife wound was removed like a cocoon, and the man in black was pressed back.
The man in black was shocked, he knew that the opponent's martial arts were above him, and he hurriedly wanted to draw his sword to defend himself, but he failed to do so after three or four strokes, it turned out that this sword and sword had already been locked together by Jiang Yuan with internal force, which was the mystery of "Nanhua Heart Sutra". The internal force is endless, but it can be rigid and soft, and it is the most suitable for fighting with people, if it is not for Jiang Yuan's intention to stay alive, at this time, as long as he changes his tricks and fights back with fierce strength, the man in black will not live long even if he is not afraid.
Of course, the man in black knew what Jiang Yuan was planning, so naturally he would not let him get his wish. While continuing to grapple with Jiang Yuan, he secretly reached into his waist with his left hand and touched some powder, hiding it between his fingernails. Jiang Yuan has naturally seen this hand, but unfortunately this person's technique is far worse than that of Old Man Wei, as long as he pays a little attention, he will not be hit.
Sure enough, after the man touched the powder, he deliberately sold a flaw, and when Jiang Yuan attacked, he abandoned the long knife in his right hand and bounced the powder in his left hand at Jiang Yuan's face. Jiang Yuan hurriedly waved his sleeves to remove the poisonous mist, and at this moment of distraction, the man in black turned around and jumped out of the hospital.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Jiang Yuan chased out, he saw that the man in black had already been stopped. A thin figure stood in front of the man in black, it was Hu Sanye!
Thinking about it, the coalition forces of more than a dozen sects swarmed into Jiangling City, how could Hu Sanye, who was the head snake of the land, not notice it? Hu Sanye didn't say much, and raised his palm and hit the chest of the man in black.
The man in black saw that there was a faint fire in his palm, and knew that the power was incomparable, so he naturally didn't dare to take it hard, and it was too late to dodge it!
Jiang Yuan naturally knew the power of the Huoyun Palm, if this palm was solid, it was still a question of whether the man in black could keep a whole corpse, and shouted anxiously: "Keep people under the palm!"
It's a pity that this slap has been slapped, and it can't be recovered. When Hu Sanye heard this, he had to reluctantly raise his palm and slapped it on the shoulder of the man in black.
The man in black flew out upside down with an "oops" and slammed into the temple wall, only to feel that his left shoulder had been shattered, and he couldn't feel the existence of his left arm.
"Oh, it's you. Hu Sanye turned his head and recognized Jiang Yuan, "Why did you want to spare his life?"
Jiang Yuan gave Hu Sanye a rough explanation of the cause and effect of this matter, and said: "I saw this person sneaking out of Shen Buxi's room, I think there must be some shady deeds, I just want to catch him in front of Shen Buevil and ask him clearly." ”
Old man Hu pondered for a moment and said, "Do you suspect that Shen Buyi is from Dongchang?"
Jiang Yuan smiled: "Is it not, just ask this person to know." ”
The man in black lay on the ground coughing up blood, and said with a miserable smile: "You want to interrogate me?"
Under the miserable white moonlight, Jiang Yuan clearly saw a black line quickly rushing up his cheeks along the veins of the man in black, and after a while, the man in black was already full of black gas: "You don't want to get anything from me!"
"Oh no! He's taken poison!" Jiang Yuan shouted loudly, Li Gao had told him that the dead soldiers in Dongchang would have a poison sac in their mouths before carrying out their tasks, which contained poison that sealed their throats when they saw blood, and once the mission failed, they would bite it off immediately, and even some special missions would contain corpse powder, and people would not leave corpses when they died!
Jiang Yuan and Hu Sanye wanted to rescue, but unfortunately it was too late, the man in black had already swallowed his breath, and there was no proof of his death now, Jiang Yuan was annoyed.
