Chapter 217: Southern Border City
Yu Chong and Bai Li Yu knew that once this matter was confirmed, all the righteous people who participated in the events of that year would become accomplices in the conspiracy, and the reputation of the righteous way of martial arts would also be lost, which might cause turmoil in the entire rivers and lakes.
"There is evidence for what you say. Yu Zhong asked.
"Yes, it was the first half of the Magic Secret Book that I helped Pu Han find, and this half of the Secret Book is now hidden in his secret room. Master Mu replied.
"If you can find this half of the secret book, it is naturally an ironclad evidence, but the Pu family is heavily guarded, not to mention Pu Han's secret room, it must be even more difficult to find, if he is alarmed, we may all die without a place to be buried. Bai Li Yu took over.
Although it is only one side of Master Mu's empty words and white teeth at present, in Yu Chong's opinion, his words do have great credibility, otherwise it is impossible to explain the many strange things that have happened along the way.
But in this way, they are facing a new problem, they don't know about it, it's okay, now that they know, I'm afraid Pu Han won't let them go in the future. From this moment on, they had been standing on the opposite side of Pu Han and were in a very dangerous situation.
But Yu Zhong has never been a person who is afraid of danger. From overthrowing Cao Xiangui, to making trouble with the Helan family, fighting the Beining Army, and eradicating Chen Jing. Whether it is a prominent magnate in the imperial court, or a top master of martial arts, or even thousands of troops on the battlefield, he has never been afraid.
Suddenly, there was a movement outside the house, although the sound was not loud, but it could not escape Yu Zhong's ears.
"Who's eavesdropping?" Before the words fell, Yu Zhong's figure had already jumped out of the window, and as soon as he reached out, he grabbed the placket of the visitor's clothes.
The person who came screamed and fell into Yu Chong's arms, and the moonlight illuminated her face, it turned out to be Ye Xiaoxiao.
"How about you. Yu Zhong was startled, and his hand quickly let go.
"Brother Yu, why don't you tell me when you come back. Ye Xiaoxiao's tone seemed to have a hint of complaint.
"Just came back, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet. Yu replied.
"Well, I can't sleep at night, go out for a walk. Ye Xiaoxiao said, but her eyes bypassed Yu Zhong and looked into the house.
"Did you hear it all?" asked Yu Zhong.
"No...... I'm just here. Ye Xiaoxiao lowered her head and replied, but her hands were clenched tightly, trembling constantly.
The night was too dark, and she didn't notice this small movement.
"Well, let's rest early, we have to get up early tomorrow and hurry. Yu Zhong said.
"Brother Yu, you should also rest early. Ye Xiaoxiao replied, and left with a hint of amazement.
Yu Zhong made sure that there was no one else around, so he walked back into the house, closing the door and window.
"Is it Miss Ye?" did she hear what we said?" asked Bai Lixuan.
"Probably not, if she knows about this matter, I'm afraid it will only cause her trouble, so let's not make a noise. Yu replied.
Now that Master Mu has agreed to cooperate with them, the next thing they have to consider is how to bring Master Mu into Jingjiang Mansion.
Sooner or later, the news of the death of the two subordinates of the Pu family will reach Pu Huan's ears, and they will definitely take strict precautions at that time, and they will definitely send a large number of people to search for the whereabouts of Master Mu.
"What should we do now?" asked Master Mu with some panic.
Yu Zhong frowned, thinking about it.
When everyone set off the next day, there was an extra dart master in the dart team, who was pretended to be Master Mu.
The most dangerous place is the safest place, and that's what the rest of the strategy is. He had thought about breaking away from the team and taking Master Mu alone, but it was more likely to be discovered that way, after all, their faces were too unfamiliar, but more noticeable.
So they disguised Master Mu as a dart master and followed the dart team all the way. In order to prevent him from changing his mind and escaping halfway, Yu Zhong sealed his acupoint.
Everyone entered Jingjiang Mansion all the way under the leadership of Pu Huan, and at that time, who would have thought that a damned person would follow Pu Da's housekeeper's team into Jingjiang Mansion.
Although the mountain road is difficult to walk, the weather is beautiful, and the sun is shining for the next few days. Under the leadership of Pu Huan, everyone quickly walked out of the mountains.
In the embrace of the mountains, a majestic city slowly appeared in everyone's field of vision, and the road was full of twists and turns, trekking through mountains and rivers, and Jingjiang Mansion finally arrived.
"Yo, this is not Pu Da Butler, are you going out to run errands?" the general at the city gate took the initiative to greet Pu Huan.
"On the orders of the second master, I went to greet some distinguished guests, and I hope that it will be convenient for the commander of the horse. Pu Huan said.
"The guests of the second master, there is no need to check it, let it go!" The general surnamed Ma beckoned to the soldiers behind him and signaled for release.
"Thank you, Commander Ma, I'll be looking for you to drink another day. Pu Huan said a few words.
Then the crowd rushed in, and under his leadership, rode through the city gates.
"Boss, this Pu family is really quite face-saving, he said hello, we don't even have to get off the horse. Bai Li said quietly.
"You must know that there is the Pu family first and then there is Jingjiang Mansion. The Pu family has been operating here for hundreds of years, and their influence is deep-rooted. Here, the order of the head of the Pu family is better than the official document of the prefect. Master Mu replied.
"Won't this be jealous of the imperial court?" Yu Zhong asked.
"Even if it is the imperial court, it has to rely on the Pu family to suppress these brave and ruthless alien races in the southwest, so naturally it can only be more forbearant. In the tone of Master Mu, he was full of deep awe for the Pu family.
Ye Xiaoxiao, who was behind, listened to these words, his expression was complicated, and he seemed to have thousands of thoughts in his heart.
Pu Huan arranged for the people of the dart team to live in a post house temporarily. Although it is a post house, it is more luxurious than the best inn in the city, and it is said that this post house was specially built by the second master Pu Han to entertain the distinguished guests of the Pu family.
"You have a good night's rest here, and after I report back to the second master, I will come to hand over the goods with you tomorrow. After Pu Huan arranged everyone, he took people back to the house first.
As soon as Ye Xiaoxiao arrived at Jingjiang Mansion, he disappeared, saying that he had gone to meet his brothers and sisters in the same door. After Yu Zhong and Baili Yu settled down in the dart car, they first took a comfortable hot bath, and then walked around the post house.
They found that in addition to them, there were some other people living here, and they knew at a glance that they were all martial arts people, and they all had extraordinary bearings, so they probably had a great background. And all of them were looking at them with a strange look, and they were uncomfortable looking at them.
Yu Zhong carefully observed the clothing and blades of these people, but he could see some clues.
"Look at those people, their clothes have beautiful patterns, elegant colors, rich stitches, and fine embroidery, which is the Gongxiu technique of Nanzhou Mansion. In addition, each of them carried a steel whip, presumably from the Wuyong family of Nanzhou Mansion. Yu Zhong said.
"I see. Bai Li Shu nodded back.
"Look at those people again, wearing Dharma robes, wearing crowns and scarves, stepping on their feet, and holding long swords, they must be the Taoists of the Kunshan School, one of the three major sword sects. Yu Zhong looked at the other group of people and said.
"Which sect and sect is that old monk?" Bai Li found that in the corner of the medical hall, there was a monk who was looking at them.
Looking in the direction, Yu Zhong was startled, this was none other than his old acquaintance, Master Unsullied.
Master Unsullied had obviously seen him, folded his hands and bowed, smiled at him again, and stretched out three fingers to gesticulate.
Yu Zhong immediately understood the meaning of Master Wuji, which was to let him go to the meditation room to meet him at the third watch at night. He immediately bowed in return and nodded.
Seeing it, Wujian smiled with satisfaction, and quietly left.
"What does the old monk compare to you? do you know him?" asked Bai Lixuan.
"What nonsense are you talking about, that's a man of the world, I'm going to meet him for a while tonight. Yu Zhong smiled mysteriously.
The two were talking, when suddenly a loud voice sounded.
"Brother Yu, is that you? my God, it's really you!" a young man greeted him excitedly.
Yu Zhong looked at it, this was none other than the eldest son of the Helan family, Helan Xu.
"Brother Yu, I haven't seen you for a long time since I said goodbye to Tiger Roaring Heights. He Lanxu was excited, rushed up and clasped his remaining hands and said.
"Shhhh Yu Zhong hurriedly said to him.
Helan Xu hurriedly lowered his voice and asked in a low voice, "Brother Yu, why did you come to Jingjiang Mansion too, is it also for the sake of the Demon Sect?"
"There are a lot of people here, Brother Helan comes with me. After Yu Zhong finished speaking, he hurriedly took He Lanxu back to their own room.
The three of them sat down separately, and He Lanxu said happily: "Brother Yu, this person next to you must be the young master of the Baili Dart Bureau." ”
Yu Zhong hurriedly introduced the two of them to each other, Helan Xu and Bai Li Yu were both straightforward and cheerful people, and they actually hit it off at first sight and called them brothers.
"I didn't expect to meet Brother Yu in Jingjiang Mansion this time, this is really an unexpected joy. He Lanxu said.
"Why did Brother Helan come here?" Yu Zhong asked.
After a detailed discussion, Yu Zhong learned that it turned out that the Helan family also participated in the battle of the destruction of the Demon Sect five years ago. And this time, it was rumored that the Demon Sect was reviving in the rivers and lakes, and Pu Yan, the head of the Pu family, was killed, and Helan Que, as the leader of the Wulin Alliance, naturally wanted to send someone to investigate the truth of the facts.
This task unexpectedly fell on Helan Xu's head, and he came to Jingjiang Mansion on behalf of Helan's family. As for the legendary Demon Sect Secret Treasure and Demon Skill Secret Book, he was not interested in it at all.
When he arrived at Jingjiang Mansion, he learned that in addition to their Helan family, all the forces that participated in the siege of the Demon Sect's main altar had sent people to come, and they seemed to be particularly concerned about this incident.
I heard today that the dart team of the Baili Dart Bureau stayed in the post house, and everyone from all walks of life wanted to come to explore the reality, and Helan Xu naturally wanted to come and see what was going on, but he unexpectedly met Yu Zhong.
