5. Lockdown

At the beginning of the day, the two finally came to Songpanwei. However, before entering the city, he saw a large number of people gathered ☯ at the gate of the city. Apparently something serious had happened in the city, and now the gates have been closed and no one is allowed to enter.

The two of them walked to the bottom of the city and saw that the people who were stopped outside the city were all dressed as peasants ☯, and some local clansmen. They carried bamboo baskets on their backs, which contained all kinds of plants, which should be the people ☯ in the city who went up the mountain in the morning to collect medicine and now returned home. But what made the two of them strange was that it was not the officials and soldiers who prevented people from entering the city, but some Miao people.

Some of these Miao people have snakes coiled on their heads, toads squatting ☯ on their shoulders, and some play with ☯ lizards in their hands. From time to time, you'll see a few hairy ☯ ☯ tentacles and barbed tails on some Miao people's waist bags. Those who were in the city to prevent others from leaving the city were dressed as Han ☯ Chinese warriors, each with a sword and a dart bag around his waist.

When the two arrived at the city gate, they saw an old man who seemed to be in a hurry to go home and was negotiating with those Miao people. However, due to the language barrier, I couldn't make sense for a long time. The old man was in a hurry, and he didn't care about 3721 and rushed inside, and the Miao man was even more anxious, and pushed ☯ the old man down. A few young people next to him hurriedly helped the old man up, but no one dared to go up and reason with them.

Han Yi and Chen Ping stepped forward, picked up the bamboo basket on the ground, put the herbs scattered on the ground back into the bamboo basket, and handed them back to the old man. The old man hurriedly thanked him.

Chen Tian asked, "Old man, what's going on, why are so many people gathered ☯ here?"

The old man sighed and said, "I don't know! We are all ordinary ☯ people in this city, and we usually go to the mountains in the morning to collect some medicinal materials such as atractylodes and yellow essence to exchange money in the city. In the past, there was no obstacle to returning to the city at this time, but today, somehow, a group of people came and just didn't let us enter the city. My wife is sick and is waiting for me to come home and decoct her medicine. ”

The two knew that in order to let both sides go, they had to convince those who stood in the way to do so. The two walked towards the city gate, and there was a shout from the old man behind them, because they didn't want the two of them to be strong.

When the two of them walked to the city gate, they saw a Miao man stop them and say in Chinese, which was not fluent in Chinese: "You are not allowed to pass ☯ through here." ”

"Why don't you let it go? Before Chen Ping could speak, Han Yi preemptively said angrily.

He was born into a peasant ☯ family, so he had a natural affinity for them ☯, so he was very angry at what they had done.

When the Miao people saw Han Yi, a rural Chinese character, with a strong body ☯ and a round waist, and saw him carrying a sword behind his back, they thought he was a bastard, and they couldn't help but ☯ be afraid in their hearts. But after thinking about it again, there are so many people on their side, and they are afraid that one farmer will not succeed.

Thinking of this, his waist straightened and his chest straightened.

"If you say you won't let it, you just won't let it. If you don't leave, you'll be beaten so much that you can't even hold chopsticks. ”

This really made Han Yi come alive, if he was really an ordinary farmer ☯, he might not be beaten into now. The fire hit the top beam door, Han Yi didn't think about it, and picked the man up.

The man had a toad ☯ squatting on his shoulder, and they carried these poisons on them, which were originally used to sneak up on the enemy when the other party was unprepared or unskilled. But now, under the shock of Han Yi's momentum, this toad ☯ actually escaped into the man's bag.

The man, knowing that he was invincible, called out to his companions around him. Han Yi put the man still on the ground and pulled out ☯ the thick ☯ sword from behind his back. When the people around saw this posture, they knew that Han Yi was not easy to mess with, so they were not in a hurry to attack, but shouted and cursed.

In this way, the companions in the city will know that something is wrong ☯ ☯ here, and it will be easy to do when the two big men ☯ ☯ in the city come.

Sure enough, when the Han ☯ people in the city saw that there was a dispute outside, they sent someone to inform the two elders ☯ in the city, and they came to take a look.

Seeing that the reinforcements were coming, those Miao people also had confidence, and their bodies ☯ no longer retreated, and two people actually pulled out ☯ their waist knives and slashed at Han Yi. As soon as their swords touched Han Yi's sword, they flew directly. As long as one person makes a move, then the offensive behind will come like a tide. It's just that this tide comes and goes quickly, and in the blink of an eye, these people are empty-handed, and their weapons are scattered all over the ground. The men had retreated to the city gates, but had no intention of letting them go. Many people put their hands in their waist pockets, probably preparing to put hidden weapons.

Han Yi also crossed his sword across his chest.

Just as the arrows were pulling out, someone ☯ in the city suddenly shouted, "Stop, stop." ”

In fact, these people were knocked out of their blades, and none of them dared to do it anymore, and the main reason why that person shouted like this was to make Han Yi's subordinates show mercy.

Han Yi followed the voice and saw two middle-aged people in their fifties in the city rushing to this side, and one of these two people was dressed as a Miao person. A few feet behind the two of them, his men also rushed here with their weapons. Han Yi saw that before the two of them came over, these people who were blocking the way had already respectfully moved out of the way. The light skill of the Han ☯ people was slightly higher than that of the Miao people beside him, and they got out of the city gate first.

When these people saw the arrival of the two old masters ☯, they were already thinking about how the two old ☯ masters would help them teach this peasant ☯ a lesson. The fantasy picture has not yet appeared, and the pain of the fantasy has reached their faces. I saw that the middle-aged Han ☯ man slapped everyone in the face twice, and his actions not only frightened his subordinates, but even the Miao man was shocked.

After the man finished teaching his subordinates, he hurriedly stepped forward and gave Han Yi a fist salute and said, "I don't know that Han Sanye and Chen Baye are here, and they are disappointed, and I hope to forgive my sins." These minions ☯ of mine do not know Taishan, and I have offended the two of them, and I will definitely teach them a good lesson when I go back. ”

Seeing that the person who came was so polite, Han Yi's anger was half gone, and he immediately clasped his fists and saluted back: "Mr. is serious, I don't know if Mr. is a big name, why do you want to lock ☯ the city gate to prevent these people from entering and leaving?"

The man smiled: "In the Lower Tang Dynasty, he is a no-name person in the Tang Sect. This friend is amazing, he is Miao Tongtian, the number one master of Miao Gate ☯. The Miao man next to him heard that Tang Si admired him so much, and his face gradually showed a look of smugness and arrogance. Then Tang Si introduced the two to Miao Tongtian ☯. Hearing the names of Han Yi and Chen Ping, the arrogance on Miao Tongtian's ☯ face immediately retreated. He knew that he had the ability to reach ☯ the heavens in the Miao Gate, but in front of the world-famous Eight Heroes of Heaven and Earth, his "heaven" was just sitting in a well and watching the sky.

At this time, I only heard Tang Si sigh and said: "Two, in fact, I don't want to close the door, and we are not an official ☯ government, how can we be qualified to seal the city gate, but this is not easy to explain, and I invite the two of you to enter the city for a while." ”

Chen Ping looked back at the hundreds ☯ of people who were still blocking the city gate and said, "Is it just the two of us who go in?"

Downs also glanced at the others and said to his subordinates, "Let go." ”

Entering a large mansion in the city, the two were arranged in a luxurious room and hosted a banquet for them.

Before the banquet, Tang Si showed great affection, but this made Chen Ping ☯ very uncomfortable, he took a sip of wine and said, "Mr. Tang, Mr. Miao, if you have anything to say, just say it." Otherwise, you will have no taste in this wine, and we will not be in the mood to drink. ”

Downs knew that it was not a way to hide it like this, and if he wanted to ask others for help, he had to be honest with each other first. So he sighed, stood up and gave the two of them a deep salute, and said, "I hope that the two of you will save me is equal to fire and water." ”

Han Yi is a loyal and honest person, and he can't stand this the most, so he hurriedly helped Tang Si up and said, "Mr. Tang, don't make such a big gift, if you have any orders, as long as we can do something, we will definitely try our best to help." ”

Looking at his honest senior ☯ brother, Chen Ping had nothing to say, only to listen to Tang Si talk about the cause and effect of this matter.

A few years ago, the old master of the Tang Sect suffered from a serious illness, and with the power of the Tang Sect, he could have recovered after only a few months of recuperation. But at this moment, for some reason, Miaomen, which is located in the Yunnan-Guizhou area, suddenly became in trouble. As soon as the old master heard the news, his heart became anxious, and his illness became even more serious. In order to reassure the door owner, the eldest son of the door owner led the Tang Sect elite to resist the attack of the Miao Gate. The final consequence of this tragic war was the death of the young master. Under this blow, the old boss died. The new head of the door was naturally succeeded by his five-year-old son, and it was his uncle and mother who assisted the young head of the house.

This pair of brothers and sisters does have some ability, and they will rectify and develop as soon as they come up, and when everything is arranged, Tang Men began to think about Miaomen. According to the intelligence of the Tang Sect, during the illness of the old master, the owner of the Miao Sect was also plotted at the same time, and the gangsters also left clues that the Tang Sect had done it, which caused the two families to fight.

Later, it was verified by many parties that some small gangs ☯ of the Yunnan-Guichuan generation joined forces ☯ to provoke in order to consolidate their position. In that battle, the eldest brother who succeeded the previous head of the family also died, and it can be said that this war suffered heavy losses to both families, and both sides need to recover ☯ their grievances. So the two factions decided to put aside their grievances first, eradicate those small gangs and small factions together, and set peace talks here. This mansion was specially built for the purpose of this peace talks.

Hearing this, Chen Ping couldn't help laughing: "You Tangmen and Miaomen are really generous, and you will build a big mansion for a peace negotiation." But why do you want to prevent others from entering and leaving the city?"

Downs sighed, "This is exactly what I want to ask you to help you with, and the representatives ☯ of our peace talks have both been ☯ killed." ”

The killing of both ☯ sides of the negotiation is not a trivial matter, and it is important to know that the representatives ☯ of both sides are important figures in both factions. In this way, there will not only be internal strife between the two factions, but also a fire fight between the two factions. At this critical time when the two martial arts of good and evil are electing ☯ the new martial arts alliance leader, such a big thing has happened, and the mastermind ☯ behind the scenes is not simple.

"Mr. Tang, who are the two people who were killed?" After hearing the narration, Chen Ping also knew that the matter could be big or small, so he asked busily.

"It is the acting head of the two factions. ”

Chen Ping was shocked when he heard this, this is not a joke, how capable it is to kill the acting heads of the two factions: "Mr. Tang, did you leave any clues when the two died?"

Downs said: "This is the strange thing about us, there was no movement when the two died, we saw that the two had been talking for a long time and did not come out, so we sent our men to investigate." The servant came back and said that he didn't dare to go in, but just knocked at the door and asked, but there was no movement inside. We sensed something was wrong, so we dared to break in, only to find out that the two of us were dead. When they died, they didn't do anything unusual, just lay on the table as if they were sleeping. ”

Han Yi asked, "Then can you take us to the scene of the crime?"

Downs hurriedly stood up and said, "I was just about to ask the two of you to move." So saying, he led the way in front of his head.

The two were taken to a two-story house in the middle of the house, surrounded by sentinels. Especially on the second floor, the doors and windows are closed, and people are arranged in the corridors and roofs. Seeing Tang Si and Miao Tongtian ☯ coming, everyone came over to salute. The two of them didn't care about this, and directly took Chen Ping and Han Yi to the second floor.

I saw Tang Si and Miao Tongtian ☯ each take out a key from their arms, insert it at both ends of the door lock and twist it gently, only to hear a "click", and the lock was opened.

Chen Ping on the side said: "The two of you are really cautious in doing things, and even ☯ the lock can only be opened by inserting ☯ two keys at the same time." ”

Tang Si and Miao Tongtian ☯ are not fools ☯, so they naturally heard the meaning of Chen Ping's words: it means that both sides distrust each other and think that the other party is a murderer ☯. However, Chen Ping's words were not rejected, and Tang Si would not break this layer of paper.

When you are cold, laughter is always the best buffer. I only heard Tang Si laugh dryly and said: "Chen Daxia is serious, just to protect the scene so that the murderer can be tracked down." ”
