Chapter 190: Two Birds with One Stone

After Qu Shifei said goodbye, a figure came out of the shadows, it was Fu Qingquan, who ranked second in the thirteenth of the Bills.

Fu Qingquan is the elder of the Huashan Sect, ranked third in the Huashan Sect, with a respected status, a very upright person, and an iron-faced selflessness.

When Fu Qingquan's apprentice committed adultery, he defiled the woman under the mountain, and the bitter master made trouble to the Huashan faction, Fu Qingquan expelled his favorite apprentice from the division in front of everyone, and then castrated him with his own hands, and won the name of an iron-faced judge in the rivers and lakes.

Fu Qingquan is old-fashioned and unsentimental, Yuwen Gui took a fancy to this, and personally went to the Huashan faction to recruit him to his command.

"What do you think of Qu right or wrong?"

Fu Qingquan said, "Utilitarianism is too heavy, narrow-minded, and a person who hides needles in both sides and three knives, I don't like him." He has always spoken very straight, and he never hides his thoughts in the face of Woo Moon Gyu's interrogation.

Yuwen Gui said, "It doesn't matter if you like it or not, for the supervision of the capital, you must remember two points, first, you must learn to be obedient, and second, you must learn to bite." Qu right and wrong is to understand these two points, in order to live to this day. ”

What Yu Wengui said was right and wrong, but Fu Qingquan could hear that it was the chief steward who was mentioning him, and he nodded and said, "Understood!"

Yu Wengui said again, "It's a good thing that Xiao Jinyan escaped from Xiangjian County, otherwise it will make a fuss here, and if something happens in the future, it will be difficult to explain to Dengwen Yuan Li Mad Dog." sent someone to keep an eye on Zhao Lanjiang and his party, Xiao Jinyan escaped from Xiangjian County, and he would inevitably contact the two of them. Remember, you only have three days, and if the Arrow Boy recovers his strength, I'm afraid it will take some trouble to catch him again. ”

......

The grain team continued to move west, but there was no Xiao Jinyan.

After only half a day, Zhao Lanjiang and Li Chengcheng began to miss Xiao Jinyanlai. Zhao Lanjiang is calm and doesn't talk much, Li Qingcheng is arrogant, except for Xiao Jinyan, no one cares about him, the two are together, and they can't say a few words in the morning.

Li Chengcheng said with emotion, "When Xiao Jinyan was here, he felt a little noisy, but when he left, he always felt that there was less fun, from Xiangjian County to Yinyang, it would be nearly a month, I'm afraid life will be difficult." ”

Zhao Lanjiang said, "If it's difficult, just practice." ”

Li Chengcheng was bored, and when he saw Lu Gongzi who was following behind the carriage and staggering, he said, "Come, Lu Gongzi, tell a joke." ”

Lu Gongzi puffed in his nose and ignored him.

"Be virtuous with his master. ”

The convoy came to an abrupt halt.

Lu Liangce of Tongwei Dart Bureau came to inform the two that Mr. Kong had something important to discuss with everyone. When the two came to the front, the treasurers of the grain team gathered together.

Mr. Kong looked solemn and said, "We're in trouble. ”

After leaving Ringing Arrow County, the dart master of Tongwei Dart Bureau found that someone was following them, and although it was not clear what they were coming from, it was not a good signal.

"Up to now, a total of two fast riders have been found, always hanging behind us, the nearest time, less than a hundred feet away from us, our people immediately stepped forward, those people escaped, and did not negotiate, for fear that they would encounter a rogue. ”

When these grain merchants here are not from the rivers and lakes, when they heard this kind of thing, they immediately made a mess, had no idea, and asked what to do.

"Everyone!" Mei Liangxin, the head of the Tongwei Dart Bureau, said loudly, "This line, we have already gone through more than a dozen times, the green forest cottage along the way, we all have some friendship, and we all sell some thin noodles to Mei, please rest assured, as long as we have the Tongwei Dart Bureau, this dart will not be water." ”

Someone shouted, "You know those bandits very well, who knows if you will collude with them and sell us to them halfway!"

Mei Liangxin was a little unhappy, "Shopkeeper Liu, what you said is a little ugly." We dart darts in the world, pay attention to the credibility, one is to rely on fists and feet, the other is to sell a few faces, in order to gain a foothold in this rivers and lakes, if you don't believe us, you can ask for another smart, we will return your dart silver. ”

The shopkeeper Liu was immediately dumbfounded.

If it is in the sheep's head station, they can also choose to change the dart board, but now in the wilderness, if the Tongwei dart board insists on not protecting them, then they can only resign themselves to fate, so they said abruptly, "Mei darthead, we don't mean that." ”

Mr. Kong came out to make peace, "Shopkeeper Liu, now that the enemy is current, the identity of the other party is unknown, we still need to share the same hatred, let's say a few words, listen to how Mei Dart head arranges." ”

Although the grain team of seventy or eighty people is equipped with swords, bows and arrows and other self-defense blades, there are few people who really understand martial arts, except for more than ten people in the Tongwei Dart Bureau.

Mei Dart said, "The number of the other party."

I don't know, and we can't act rashly. First, from now on, we will only take the official road and speed up the journey; second, we will not camp in the wilderness, and try to stay in villages, towns, or post stations at night; third, we will maintain the formation of the grain team, not more than 30 zhang in front and behind, and obey the command in everything when we encounter problems. ”

Then, Mei Darttou talked about how to place the convoy in case of an emergency, how to do a good job of defense and other precautions. Mr. Kong said to Zhao Lanjiang, "Shopkeeper Tang, we have also seen your archery skills in Xiangjian County, and we may have to ask you for the next few days." ”

Zhao Lanjiang nodded and agreed.

After lunch, the convoy moved on.

After walking for five or six miles, someone suddenly warned that bandits were found in the southeast.

Zhao Lanjiang said, "Grab your tongue." ”

Two men rode and rode their horses to the southeast.

When the thieves saw Zhao and Li chasing after them, they didn't like to fight, and even drove their horses to run into the distance. The two of them followed closely behind, and chased five or six miles in one go, to a hillside.

Seeing that the distance between the two sides was less than 100 zhang, Zhao Lanjiang suddenly shouted to Li Chengcheng.

Li Chengcheng was puzzled and said, "Why don't you chase it?"

Zhao Lanjiang said slowly, "I'm afraid there is something wrong with these people." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Zhao Lanjiang looked at the hillside and said, "These people are very clever in equestrian skills, and they can obviously get rid of us, but they have always kept a distance from us, this is one of them." Second, these people's martial arts are not weak, they should all know the Xuan realm, in this world, even the masters of the knowledge of the Xuan have gone to the wilderness to be a path cutting thief, don't you think it's strange?"

Li Chengcheng was stunned.

It doesn't matter what else, but in terms of the kung fu that those people showed on the horse, I am afraid that they are all famous masters in the rivers and lakes, and even they are just whistles to explore the way, so the strength of this group of people can only be described as unfathomable.

"And what exactly are they for?"

Zhao Baojiang said, "I'm afraid I can only ask them." Since these people are eyeing us, they will definitely not give up and will come again. ”

The two rode back.

Hundreds of feet away, on the other side of the hillside.

A middle-aged man in fancy clothes rode his horse, and behind him were more than a dozen heavily armed swordsmen.

The middle-aged man looked at the backs of the two and said, "Those two people are not fooled!"

The old servant in black said, "Are we showing any horses?"

The middle-aged man looked at the two riders of the Mystery Realm and said, "I understand." I didn't expect that Zhao Lanjiang was so thoughtful, and this time I made a mistake. ”

The old servant in black said, "Three Sect Masters, this caravan is just a rabble, if we kill Li Qingcheng, with our strength, we can do it without knowing it, why not use thunder to annihilate them?"

The middle-aged man said, "Do you make a move, or do I make a move?" Although Li Chengcheng's swordsmanship is not very skillful, he is good at escaping, if he misses a blow, let him escape, and then kill him, how easy it is to say. ”

"So what do we do?"

"Now there is a grain team tied up with him, and we have to wait, wait for an opportunity. Inform Boss Yan over there and let their people go. ”

Boss Yan, whose real name is Yan Cang, is one of the three major rogues on the Yinyang Trade Road, this person is fierce, and his subordinates have gathered a group of outlaws, who were rampant in Wuliang Mountain in the south of the Yangtze River for a generation, controlling one-third of the water and land docks.

It's a pity that bad luck was good, and he met the fledgling Li Chengcheng.

At that time, Li Chengcheng was sixteen years old, young and vigorous, one person and one sword, killed Wuliang Mountain, picked his stockade, compared swords with Yan Cang, and used a move to stab him in one eye, so as to become famous in a battle.

Boss Yan couldn't get along in the south of the Yangtze River, so he ran to the western Xinjiang, and worshiped under the famous teacher, practiced martial arts hard, and after leaving the school, he took in some outlaws and started his old business.

He did things ruthlessly, robbed things and never left a living mouth, came and went, and gradually broke into a reputation, known as the king of Yama in the western frontier, and the skeleton king hated the sky, the four phoenixes of the four phoenixes, and became the three major rogues on the western front.

A month ago, someone found Boss Yan and told him that Li Chengcheng was going to Yinyang from here, and promised 100,000 taels of silver to leave Li Chengcheng's life.

This aroused Boss Yan's vengeful anger.

In Jiangnan, Boss Yan was shocked by the power of the Li family in Jinling, so he could only endure the humiliation and steal his life, and fly away.

Now Li Chengcheng has come to his territory, here, he is the bronze king in the dark, and there are nearly 2,000 brothers under him who work for him, he is the king here.

He had already released his words to leave Li Chengcheng's head in this thousands of miles of barren mountains.

For this reason, he deliberately went to the bookstore and bought a set of "Ten Tortures of the Manchu Dynasty".

Painstakingly studied and comprehended, he not only wanted to kill Li Chengcheng, but also tortured him with the most cruel method in the world, making him worse than death, peeling the skin and filling the grass to light the sky lantern, making the human head into a juju, and so on.

All this is for revenge.

In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, on this day, Xiyan Luo Yancang held a banquet in the Yama Palace, and invited the leaders of the other two major Kou, the Skeleton King Hatred Heaven and the Four Phoenixes, to discuss the matter of the three Kou joining forces.

Of course, Boss Yan didn't speak directly, but took advantage of the three rounds of wine to recall the glorious years and glorious results of the robbery of the three major Kou together.

Over the years, the three major Kou have worked together to greatly develop their power, especially after the tense situation on the Western Front this year and the sharp reduction in the imperial court's clearance efforts, the business of the three major Kou has developed in a blowout. Although in the specific affairs of the robbery, there were occasional unpleasant things such as crossing the line and ventilating the news, but on the whole, the cooperation was relatively smooth.

In the end, taking advantage of the wine, he said the old way, "Five leaders, we don't talk darkly, this time I invite you to come, there is a deal to discuss." ”

Skeletron Hate Heaven was the least powerful of the three major Kou, and he said, "Boss Yan, you are the oldest among us, and we Skeleton Gang all listen to you." ”

The red phoenix of the four phoenixes asked, "What deal?"

Yan Lao Dao, "Recently, I got a news that there is a caravan from Shuzhong, which will pass by us in the near future, and this caravan has transported 300,000 catties of grain. ”

Huang Fenghuang Gege said with a smile, "The grain team from Shuzhong, of course, passed by Yan Laodi's territory first, there is such a good thing, Yan Boss does not go in person, but calls us together, it will not be the military's food, robbing the army food, that is illegal!"

Yan Lao Dao, "Then you tell me, who is it not illegal to rob?"

Huang Fenghuang stammered, but the pink phoenix was more stable, she asked, "What is the origin of these grains, and how many people are escorted?"

Yan Lao Dao, "There are more than 70 people in the grain team, among which there are only about a dozen people who can do martial arts, and they are the darts of the Tongwei Dart Bureau." ”

Hua Fenghuang stroked the golden step on his head, and asked with a smile, "I only care about whether there are any beautiful men in this convoy." ”

Among the four phoenixes, the flower phoenix is the most romantic, every time she robs, she will catch the man with the better appearance among the pedestrians to play with, and then kill with a knife.

Boss Yan patted his chest and said, "I found someone to touch the bottom, there is a person surnamed Li, not only is he beautiful, he is simply the most beautiful man in the world!"

Hua Phoenix was the first to stand up, "This vote, we did it!"

Skeletron Hate Tian also chimed in, "Since Hua Mei said so, we Skeleton Gang have also joined. ”

Boss Yan patted the table and said, "It's better to do this, each of our three parties will send a thousand soldiers and horses to form a coalition army, and when the grain team enters my sphere of influence, I will let them go, and then start in the Sifeng Mountain territory, and attack back and forth, catch turtles in the urn, how about it?"

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

"That's it. ”

Seeing that both sides had no opinions, Boss Yan said, "After the matter is completed, I will divide it into two, the enemy gang leader will divide it into fifty, and the four sisters will share it into three percent, how about it?"

Boss Yan seemed to be at a loss, but someone in Jiangnan had already promised to give him 100,000 taels of silver. When he said this, he actually had careful thoughts, among the three major Kou, he was the strongest, followed by Sifeng Mountain, and the Skeleton Gang was the weakest.

This time in the Sifeng Mountain territory, he can take the opportunity to weaken the strength of Sifeng Mountain, but give the Skeleton Gang the most dividends, which will naturally cause dissatisfaction on both sides, and after the matter is completed, he can take the opportunity to annex the two major gangs, with these hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, recruit troops and buy horses, and be a soil emperor with mountains and rivers.

It's a two-bird solution!

As soon as these words came out, Hatred Tian laughed, "The boss is worthy of being the boss, since the eldest brother is righteous and thin, the younger brother can only reluctantly agree." ”

Hua Fenghuang slapped the table, "Why, do it in our territory, but let the old enemy share the most?"

Hatred Tian smiled, "Sister Hua, didn't you also share the most beautiful man in the world, this deal is not a loss!"

Boss Yan smiled and said, "Then I will keep two percent, and the remaining eighty percent, you will divide it." ”

Hua Fenghuang stood up, solemn, and said, "Since you are doing it on my territory, I want all the food and men!"

There was a hint of viciousness in the eyes of the hateful sky.

Seeing that the goal was achieved, Boss Yan persuaded, "That's it, I'll divide one percent, Hua Meizi will share fifty percent, and Brother Qiu will share forty percent, how about it?"

In this way, a coalition of the three major Kou forces, each with its own ghosts, was officially established.
