While Huang Rong was eating, she heard Dai Daojin whispering, turned her head and asked, "Senior brother, do you know the people from Xuandu Valley?"

She Bing Xue is smart, she has always known this senior brother's temperament, she is not nosy, and she is afraid of trouble, but this time she took the initiative to ask about the matter of Xuandu Valley, and she must have discovered something.

Dai Daojin smiled and said, "Rong'er, do you know what peach blossoms are called?"

Huang Rong replied: "Xuandu flower." ”

After speaking, he reacted, "Xuandu flower...... Xuandu Valley, Senior Brother, do you mean that this Xuandu Valley is related to our Peach Blossom Island?"

Dai Daojin picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of food, and then said, "Do you know how many apprentices your father has?"

Huang Rong thought for a while, "You, Senior Brother Qu, Senior Brother Lu, Senior Brother Wu, Senior Brother Feng." ”

Dai Daojin shook his head, "In addition to a few of us, in fact, you also had a senior brother and a senior sister in the early years?"

Huang Rong seemed to remember something, "Senior brother, are you talking about stealing my father's "Nine Yin True Scripture". As a result, the other senior brothers were kicked out of Peach Blossom Island.

Dai Daojin nodded.

Huang Rong looked thoughtful and said, "Senior brother, do you mean that this Xuandu Valley is a man and a woman, are they the two of them?"

Dai Daojin nodded and said: "The corpse in the carriage on the street today, I saw the wound on its head, which is quite similar to the wound caused by the Nine Yin Divine Claw in the Nine Yin True Scripture. ”

When Huang Rong heard this, she was curious, "I don't know how these two people came to this northwest?"

Dai Daojin didn't explain much, but said: "Okay, hurry up and eat, have a good rest, we will continue to rush tomorrow." ”

Huang Rong was interested at this time, and was very interested in the two former brothers and sisters who had never met, although the two stole their father's scriptures, but they wanted to see these two, this journey was too boring, and finally encountered something interesting, Huang Rong didn't want to miss it.

His eyes rolled, and he smiled and said, "Senior brother, how long have you not seen those two?"

Dai Daojin thought for a while, "It's been more than ten years." ”

Huang Rong said: "Now that the old people have finally met, don't you want to see each other?"

Dai Daojin smiled, looked at Huang Rong, and said, "What do I see them doing?"

Huang Rong said: "You haven't seen each other for so long, don't you want to catch up with the past?"

Dai Daojin smiled, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "Rong'er, the two of them stole your father's "Nine Yin True Scripture", which made your father angry, as your father's daughter, you are not angry with those two?"

Huang Rong stuck out her tongue and laughed: "It's been so long, my father probably doesn't remember, why am I angry." ”

Dai Daojin smiled and said secretly: Your father is afraid that he will never forget.

Seeing that Dai Daojin had no intention of going, Huang Rong stood up directly, ran to Dai Daojin's side and dragged his shirt, and said coquettishly: "Senior brother, shall we go and have a look?"

Dai Daojin put down the chopsticks in his hand, knocked off Huang Rong's hand, and said helplessly: "We are going all out now, maybe we can rush to Peach Blossom Island before the New Year, if you are delayed here, then you can't celebrate the New Year on Peach Blossom Island, your mother is looking forward to your return?"

Huang Rong hesitated on her face, she had been out for a long time, and she also missed her mother and her brother a little.

Xiaozui muttered a little and sat back, she still wanted to see Mei Chen and the others, but it was really important to go home.

After the two of them had eaten, they went back to their rooms to rest.

The next day, early in the morning, Dai Daojin took Huang Rong straight to the carriage and horse shop.

The steward of the carriage and horse dealership looked at a man and a woman in front of him, seeing that he was carrying a long sword, and he didn't want to offend, so he said: "Two, it's not that you don't want to provide a frame for the two, who doesn't want to make money if you have money." ”

"But, not for the past two days. ”

Dai Daojin frowned slightly, "Why not?"

The steward turned his head to look around, waved his hand and led the two into the house, closing the door.

Huang Rong looked at his cautious appearance, and wondered a little, isn't it just to rent a carriage, is it necessary?

The steward turned around and whispered, "Do you know the two of you, this Tuliang City Mu family?"

Dai Daojin nodded, "I've heard of it." ”

The steward sighed, "The Mu family is a tyrant in Tuliang City, and anyone who does business in Tuliang City, or a caravan that passes through Tuliang City, must give his family a filial piety money." ”

Dai Daojin frowned, "What does this have to do with us renting a carriage?"

The steward hurriedly said: "Don't worry, listen to me, in addition to the old lady Mu, there are also three brothers of the Mu family, their three brothers are strong in martial arts, bullying the weak, not to mention this cart and horse shop in Tuliang City, even the hawker who sells mountain goods, and he has to pay money." ”

"In addition, the three brothers have a lot of people under their hands, and they control the key roads near Tuliang City, 'protect' the passing caravans, and collect money. ”

Dai Daojin's brows furrowed even deeper, "Does the government care?"

The steward smiled bitterly, shook his head, and didn't say much.

Dai Daojin understood that in this small northwest Tucheng, the power of the government was so weak, I am afraid that it had already been in cahoots with the Mu family.

The steward frowned, and continued: "The world is difficult, but people still have to live, although the days are hard, although the business is difficult, but they can also persevere, but just recently, the Mu family didn't know when to fight against the Xuandu Valley, and the two sides fought a few times, and the Mu family seemed to have suffered a loss." ”

"And the people of Xuandu Valley seem to be deliberately taking revenge on the Mu family, killing the Mu family's guards at the intersection and occupying it themselves, and no one from Tuliang City is allowed to pass, if you want to go over, you have to pay money, and let it be said that in the future, Tuliang City will belong to the sphere of influence of Xuandu Valley, so that the merchants of Tuliang City will pay filial piety to Xuandu Valley. ”

Dai Daojin was a little irritable in his heart, and he didn't stop on the return trip.

The steward looked around and said in a low voice: "In my opinion, this Xuandu Valley is going to replace the Mu family, yesterday Mu Sanye was killed by the Xuandu Valley, and the Mu family released cruel words, if you dare to offer to Xuandu Valley, you will bear the consequences." ”

"Now the people of the Mu family are guarding the city gate. ”

Dai Daojin asked, "Then what should you do when you go out to do business?"

The steward grimaced and said, "Take a long detour, of course life is more important than money." I estimate that if this Mu Sanye is dead, the Mu family and Xuandu Valley will probably die, and this Tuliang City will change in the future. ”

Speaking of this, the steward was a little worried, a wolf left, another tiger came, or a new hungry tiger, I don't know how much money can be fed, alas, I am afraid that the future will be even more sad.

Dai Daojin didn't want to get involved in these things, and asked, "How far do you have to detour?"

The steward pondered, "I have to bypass a small Gobi Desert on a long detour, and I am afraid it will take more than 20 days to travel." ”

When Dai Daojin heard this, his eyes were cold, and he said lightly: "Steward, do you sell carriages here?"
