Shangguan Yun has no grievances and no grievances, naturally he is reluctant to use force with Lu Rongweng, he is now in great progress in martial arts, and he is no longer afraid of making a move with Jin Wancheng, thinking: "I believe that it has been brought, but you don't listen, it is better to leave first, and then I will quietly turn back, if Jin Wancheng and they come to make it difficult for you, then I will rescue you." Shangguan Yun arched his hand and said: "Shopkeeper Lu, since he has already brought the letter below, it can be regarded as benevolence and righteousness, Shopkeeper Lu himself is careful to take precautions, don't want to follow the Tao of Jin Wancheng, and leave in the next place, so as not to misunderstand again." With that, he turned and left.

Lu Rongweng said secretly: "The demon head of the Heavenly Demon Sect has always been scheming, if you leave and come back quietly, it will be impossible to prevent it, why don't you stabilize you first, and then slowly plan later." He said loudly, "Shangguan Sect Master, please stay." ”

Shangguan Yun stopped, turned around and asked, "What advice does Shopkeeper Lu have?"

Lu Rongweng said with a smile: "The old man is really stupid, so that he was confused for a while and didn't believe the words of the Shangguan Sect Master. Shangguan Sect Master came thousands of miles to send a letter, this affection is very rare, Jiangnan is the boundary of my business, if the old man does not fulfill the friendship of the landlord, he is only afraid of the jokes of the people in the rivers and lakes in the future. ”

Shangguan Yun knew in his heart that he was strong in martial arts, and he was not afraid of Lu Rongweng's deception, so he could stay here to prevent Jin Wancheng from harming his life. Shangguan Yun hugged his fists and said: "In this case, it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”

Lu Rongweng naturally didn't dare to let him get close to him, he looked apologetic and said with a smile: "I wanted to take the same boat with the Shangguan Sect Master, but I have a rich business in the Jiangnan Seventy-two Merchants, and it is really not like to use this small boat to greet the Shangguan Sect Master." Sect Master Shangguan waited for a while, and the old man asked someone to pick you up in a big boat. ”

Shangguan Yun let him do what he wanted, and said with a smile: "It's disrespectful in the next place, so just wait here." ”

Lu Rongweng took out a ringing arrow from his sleeve and threw it upwards with a squeak, and the arrow flew dozens of feet with a squeak. Lu Rongweng said with a smile: "The people from my firm will come later, don't worry about the Shangguan Sect Master." ”

Not long after, I saw a vermilion big boat downstream, the big ship was nearly ten zhang long, and the carved windows of the three-story pavilion on it looked extremely luxurious, although there was only one boat, I was afraid that it would cost a lot of silver compared to the boss of a village. Although the boat was large, it was going upstream, but it was very fast, and in a short time it was close to the two of them.

A capable young man at the bow of the boat said loudly: "Chief shopkeeper, what big fish can you catch today?"

Lu Rongweng said with a smile: "The fish has not been caught, but there are distinguished guests here, Zheng Ang, you quickly bring the Shangguan Sect Master onto the boat." ”

It turned out that this young man was Zheng Ang who saved Shangguan Yun's life, and he recognized the person on the shore at this time, and quickly bowed down and said, "It turns out that the benefactor is here, please accept Zheng Ang's worship." He stood up straight and said politely: "Shangguan Sect Master, please get on the boat quickly, this time Zheng Ang will definitely thank you well." As he spoke, he ordered his men to put the planks on the shore so that Shangguan Yun could get on the boat.

In fact, the two boats are only two or three zhang away from the shore, so why is it so troublesome to put on a plank, but Shangguan Yun doesn't want to show his kung fu, he waits for the plank to be built, and then slowly walks to the big boat.

Zheng Ang was very enthusiastic, and he was busy arranging for his subordinates to buy wine and food, and he was overjoyed: "Shangguan Sect Master, please take a seat in the cabin, and we will sail back to Taihu Lake." ”

Lu Rongweng coughed twice when he heard this, and he said with a smile: "Zheng Ang, the Shangguan Sect Master made a special trip to deliver a letter to us, how could the Shangguan Sect Master be tired from a long distance, if you go to Jiangning Mansion to entertain the good students, why do you need to go there at the expense of the near and far." ”

Zheng Ang knew that something was wrong, although he was grateful to Shangguan Yun for saving his life, but Lu Rongweng had to listen to his words, so he smiled and said: "Shangguan Sect Master, don't laugh, I'm also so happy that I am confused, it will take a few days to get to Taihu Lake, and it is indeed to Jiangning Mansion." ”

Shangguan Yun guessed the reason but it was inconvenient to explain it, and said politely: "As the saying goes, guests are as good as the host, but it is arranged by Shopkeeper Lu and Brother Zheng." ”

Lu Rongweng didn't get on the big boat either, he put away the fishing rod, picked up the wooden oar and rowed upstream, while saying: "The old man is used to being idle, and he will do everything himself, so he won't go on the big boat to accompany the Shangguan Sect Master, and I hope the Shangguan Sect Master will forgive me." ”

The other party was jealous, but Shangguan Yun didn't break it, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Lu should be old and strong, and the order is admired, Shangguan Yun is accompanied by Brother Zheng, Shopkeeper Lu, please take care of yourself." So saying, he went into the cabin.

The two boats went up the river for more than 50 miles, and they saw a small boat speeding upstream, and the people on the small boat saw the big boat, and shouted loudly when they were far away.

Zheng Angben was drinking with Shangguan Yun in the cabin, he heard the voice outside, and said with a smile: "Shangguan Sect Master sit down for a while, I'll go out and see what is going on." ”

Shangguan Yun was inconvenient to inquire about the news in other sects, so he nodded and smiled: "Brother Zheng is going by himself, why do you need to be polite with him." ”

Zheng Ang got up and went out, and it didn't take long for Shangguan Yun to hear an exclamation from outside in the cabin, obviously something terrible had happened. Soon Lu Rongweng broke in, Zheng Ang followed him into the cabin, Lu Rongweng hurriedly said: "Shangguan Sect Master, what you just said is true?

Shangguan Yun stood up, his expression was very solemn, and he said bitterly: "Except for the Lord of the Flower Valley and the five immortals of the Hundred Flowers Valley, the rest of the people have all been killed by Jin Wancheng and them, and even the houses in the valley, the medicine field, and the Nine Palaces Bagua Array at the mouth of the valley have also been destroyed. He saw that Lu Rongweng's words came suddenly, and said: "Shopkeeper Lu must have received some news, and now he should believe what he said." ”

Lu Rongweng's face was embarrassed, he coughed fakely, and arched his hand: "The old man was confused for a while, and asked the Shangguan Sect Master to take care of it." ”

Zheng Ang's expression was grim, and he said: "The person who went to Dongting to buy brought news that the owner of the Baizhai of Dongting Ninety-Nine Water Village was killed by the Jincheng faction, which coincides with what the Shangguan Sect Master said, does the Shangguan Sect Master know why the Jin Sect Master wants to harm the Baizhai Lord?"

Shangguan Yun said hatefully: "Jin Wancheng wants to dominate the rivers and lakes, it must be the idea of dominating the world, just because the lord of Baizhai is unwilling to hand over the people and horses of Dongting Water Village to him to command, he is angry and has evil thoughts and beheads the lord of Baizhai with a sword. The Valley of Flowers is also like this, fortunately, the Lord of the Valley of Flowers is not in the valley, otherwise they will be murdered. He didn't want to ask for credit, let alone let people know the situation in the Valley of Hundred Flowers, so he had to be vague.

Zheng Ang nodded thoughtfully and said, "We have heard a few days ago that the Heavenly Demon Sect has been severely damaged, and there will be injuries in the struggle between good and evil. For example, today's situation is extremely chaotic, although we want to turn the tide, how can we not do it, only Wangyang sighs. ”

Shangguan Yun said: "The seventy-two firms in Jiangnan are rich in the world, and there are many masters in your faction. When he was in the Valley of Hundred Flowers, he said that he wanted to come to Jiangnan, and they would definitely come to him in the near future, and your faction should take precautions as soon as possible to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past. ”

Lu Rongweng was anxious and asked, "Zheng Ang, is there any news from Taihu Lake?"

Zheng Ang shook his head and said, "Master has not heard any news. ”

Lu Rongweng hurriedly said: "Quickly turn the bow of the boat, let's rush back to see, if Jin Wancheng really comes, I am afraid that there will be more luck and less luck." ”

Zheng Ang went out of the cabin according to his words, and Lu Rongweng arched his hand and said: "Shangguan Sect Master does not think about the difference between good and evil, and comes to deliver the letter in person. He said this politely, but it contained a deep meaning, that is, you and I are both good and evil, please Shangguan Yun leave by himself, so as not to be talked about in the future.

Shangguan Yun understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Lu, I have been disturbed for a long time before, you have to go back to Taihu Lake, but there are still important things to do, you and I will meet in the future." ”

Lu Rongweng was overjoyed, but he pretended to hold back and said: "The old man has not yet fulfilled the friendship of the landlord, the Shangguan sect leader does not have to go in such a hurry, and as soon as the things in my faction are finished, the old man will accompany the Shangguan sect master to see the customs and customs of the south of the Yangtze River." ”

Shangguan Yun arched his hand and said: "The shopkeeper Lu is full of fists, it is said that it is not appropriate to refuse in the bottom, but there is indeed something important in the bottom, so I will leave!" He walked out of the cabin, and saw that the big ship was only four or five feet away from the shore, so he jumped over. When he jumped out of the three feet, his body fell, Shangguan Yun slapped his palms continuously, pressed lightly twice on the water surface, and jumped to the shore with a little recoil force. He wiped the river water on his hands, clasped his fists and said loudly: "Thank you Brother Zheng for your hospitality, you and I will drink again in the future, and there will be a period later." After saying that, he left without looking back.

Lu Rongweng saw it at the bow of the boat, and was shocked in his heart, Shangguan Yun was so young, he had such a strong martial arts, and it was even more difficult to meet an opponent in light skills, if he really wanted to kill him just now, where could he escape.

Zheng Ang has already seen Shangguan Yun's light skills, and has been saved by him, he admires Shangguan Yun's martial arts very much, and in his heart, he has really regarded Shangguan Yun as a close friend, but there are different paths between good and evil, and he has to be alienated on the surface. When he saw that Shangguan Yun was leaving, he couldn't help blurting out: "Brother Shangguan, take care, Zheng will definitely not get drunk with you in the future." "He didn't even call the Shangguan Sect Master.
