In the spring of the second year of Wanli, Hankou Town, Hanyang Prefecture.

This town, now known as the thoroughfare of nine provinces, has prospered far more than ever since the Han River diverted to the Yangtze River a hundred years ago. The local dragons and snakes are mixed, and the merchants and gangs from various provinces gather, the Hunan Yankees who put the rows, the Henan people who sell medicines, the porcelain gangs in Jiangxi, the merchants from all over the country, and of course, the countless local gangs.

The small Hankou is like a small river and lake, but no one can dominate it.

It's just that on this day, for some reason, the bigwigs of the big and small gangs in Hankou gathered at the dock in a friendly group, as if they were waiting for someone.

It wasn't until a small boat floated far away on the Yangtze River, and the two green-clothed girls in the bow of the boat stood with swords in their arms, and some people who watched the excitement suddenly realized that this was not the sword boy who came to Hubei.

It is said that when the two Dao of Righteousness and Demons encountered landmines in the decisive battle of Moyunling, they suffered heavy casualties, and the Xiaoyao faction took advantage of the situation to rise, and its gangs sprung up all over the country like mushrooms after a rain, sweeping the entire rivers and lakes with a great momentum, and the gangs in the world did not dare to follow.

Shaolin closed the mountain, and Zhao Shiquan, the head of Wudang, had an unclear attitude towards the Xiaoyao faction, and for a while, there was no one who dared to compete with the Xiaoyao faction.

Until three years ago, Jian Gongzi was born, and the sword provoked the 36 families in Jiangnan to divide the rudder, forcing the forces of the Xiaoyao faction to retreat. The large and small gangs in the entire Jiangnan have just seen the light of day and broken free from the shackles of the free faction.

Therefore, the Jiangnan gang mostly worships Jian Gongzi as the leader of the alliance to show respect.

"Gang Leader Jiang, I heard that the leader of the Xiaoyao faction, Prince Jinyin Ming, led the two great protectors of Yin and Yang, and four of the twelve elders also came, and they all went to Xiangyang, so it could be that the Xiaoyao faction is going to make a comeback. "The one who spoke was an old man who didn't look good, and he looked like a poor man in the countryside, looking at the many people wearing yellow clothes and green sleeves behind him, it should be Wan Shouchun, the leader of the Tiangong Gang, who is mainly from Jiangxi.

And the Jiang gang leader was gorgeously dressed, with a wide body and a fat waist, quite like a member of the party. If Bai Yujing is here, he may still remember this person, it is Qinglongjiang Erlang, the leader of the Changqing Gang who had a relationship in the Chu Palace.

Many years later, Jiang Erlang is no longer as frivolous and impetuous as he was at that time, and it seems that many gangs here are faintly headed by him. His face was grim, he looked at the boat coming from afar, and said slowly: "I'll tell you a word from the heart of the big guy, I don't know what the specific situation is." But I can tell you for sure that no matter what, as long as the Sword Master is here, we don't have to be afraid of those who are free to come. ”

Others don't know the details of this sword boy, but a few years ago, after entering the congenital stage, Liu Wuya challenged the sword boy in the Yellow Crane Tower, and when he stayed in his house at night after defeat, he sighed in a dream: "The country of abundance, the Taibai swordsman." ”

In this way, without guessing, you can understand that the sword boy is the new Taibai swordsman as rumored in the rivers and lakes.

Think about it, there have always been only a handful of masters of swords in the entire rivers and lakes. If it weren't for the Taibai swordsman, who could be as unparalleled in swordsmanship as the sword boy, and faintly have the reputation of the world's number one swordsman.

Seeing that Jiang Erlang, who had surrendered as soon as the Xiaoyao faction came, was so convincing, he was not afraid, and his mind was a lot calmer. After all, if the Loose Sect really fights, the one who should be most feared should be Jiang Erlang, a two-faced person.

A short time later, the boat docked. Without waiting for the gang leaders to greet him, one of the two sword-holding girls on the boat said loudly: "You don't have to wait here, my son-in-law went to Qizhou overnight yesterday." I'm just afraid that you will have to wait, so I specially ordered the two of us to come here to inform you. ”

"Went to Qizhou?"

"Is that rumor true?"

"I heard that Lang Zhong of Dongbitang in Qizhou wrote a book about the eight veins of the Qi Jing......"

"I thought who was joking, we Jianghu masters couldn't figure out where the eight veins of the Qi Jing were, and how could a Lang Zhong figure it out. ”

The gang leaders were stunned for a while, and they all talked about it, but Jiang Erlang reacted quickly and said respectfully: "The sword boy is benevolent." ”

The others chimed in: "The sword boy is benevolent. ”

Someone also invited the two girls to the banquet, and the other of the two sword-hugging girls smiled and said: "Our two sisters have sent a message to you according to the requirements of the son, and it is inconvenient to stay for a long time at this time, and we are about to rush to Qizhou." With that, he let the boatman swing away.

"Gang Master Jiang, what's the matter with this Qizhou, you have to rush to the sword boy overnight?" one person asked.

Everyone next to him looked at Jiang Erlang, who didn't know that Jiang Erlang's Changqing Gang was all over Hubei, and he was the most well-informed.

"This ...... I don't know......"

Suddenly, a person from the rear came on horseback: "Helper, helper, it's not good...... The Loose Gang has arrived in Qizhou. ”

The gang leaders immediately looked at each other, how did they come so quickly, this Dongbi Tanglang wrote a medical book about the eight veins of the Qi Jing must be true. But I saw a person exclaiming: "It's bad now, isn't Jian Gongzi going to suffer a loss in Qizhou alone?" As soon as he said this, everyone looked at him.

In the end, Jiang Erlang smiled and said: "The big guys are all scattered, Jian Gongzi obviously knew that the Xiaoyao faction gang had arrived in Qizhou before rushing there overnight." We don't say that we are afraid that it will be too late to rush over, and even if we go, we will not be able to help much. ”

All the gang leaders had different expressions, and they all hugged their fists and said goodbye. After the many gang leaders left, Jiang Erlang suddenly said to the subordinates next to him: "Hurry up and prepare a fast horse for me, I want to go to Qizhou." ”

If the medical book of Na Langzhong really indicates the location of the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, these masters of the rivers and lakes will be able to penetrate those meridians more easily with this medical book, and it is not impossible for the true qi to fully impact the innate fear.

There are not a few people who have the same thoughts as Jiang Erlang, but the Xiaoyao faction and Jian Gongzi are both in Qizhou, and it is really not good to go with a large number of helpers, but if you sneak away alone, you may be able to get some opportunities.

In Qizhou, countless Xiaoyao faction gangs wearing gray and white robes gathered around the Dongbi Hall, surrounding the Dongbi Hall.

And the person at the head wearing the mask of the Golden-winged Dapeng is none other than the leader of the Carefree Sect, King Golden-winged. Behind him are the two yin and yang who have already entered the innate world, one fat and one thin, one tall and one short, which is very eye-catching. The four elders of the Freedom Sect are located in various directions of the East Wall Hall, and no one is allowed to enter.

The Golden-Winged King was about to step into the East Wall Hall when he suddenly stopped and looked up at the eaves on the west side.

"I didn't expect you to come so quickly. ”

As soon as his words fell, there was a clear laughter from behind the eaves: "Why is your Excellency unhappy that a friend has come from afar?" At some point, a figure suddenly appeared there, with a pale cyan robe and a bronze sword at his waist.

The man wore a linen-colored hat that hung down with a soap veil to cover his face. Although I can't see the appearance clearly, I am very young when I hear the voice.

The Golden-winged Ming King glanced at him, and knew that Elder Ying Long, who was arranged in the southwest, affirmed it, and said coldly: "It seems that your skills have improved in the past few years, otherwise it would be impossible to solve Ying Long so easily." I just don't know if your master is not here, and you alone can defeat the three of me. ”

The man's expression was straight, and he bowed to the Golden-winged Ming King and said, "Although I can't defeat the three of you together, but the owner of this medical hall has a life-saving grace for me, and I have to repay it! ”

The Golden-Winged Ming King's eyes flickered, he didn't expect that this person had such a relationship with this medical hall Langzhong, and listening to his words didn't seem to be a hypocrisy. For a while, he was also a little embarrassed. He was not afraid of the person in front of him, but this person's master should still be alive, and that person was an existence that even his ancestors feared.

Just as he was hesitating, the door of the East Wall Hall suddenly opened, and a man of standing age said in a loud voice: "Father, please come over with you." Then he looked at the man behind the eaves and said, "And this Excellency." ”

The short and fat Yang Liulong smiled: "The owner of this medical hall is calm, interesting, interesting, just go to see him." The tall and thin Yin Jiufeng next to him sneered: "Hmph, Lang Zhong in the countryside has never seen the world of rivers and lakes." If you've heard of my name, I'm afraid you'll have already gone out to greet him, and you'll have to wait for me to see him, it's really a big shelf. ”

"Alright, since the master has been invited, let's go in. King Golden-winged Ming glanced at Lang Zhong, who was faintly angry, and after speaking, he took Yin and Yang Ersu into the East Wall Hall, and the man wearing the hat also flew in like a feather.

Yin and Yang Ersuo just glanced at him and didn't say much.

A group of five people passed through the lobby and entered the inner courtyard, only to see an old man and a young Taoist playing chess. Behind the old man, there was also a handsome middle-aged man serving tea, obviously the owner of this medical hall, Li Shizhen.

But who is that young Taoist?

Yin Yang Ersu still faintly felt a little familiar, but the Golden-winged Ming King was happy in his eyes: "Second brother, have you come back from Japan?" He seemed to be afraid that the young Taoist would not know him, so he quickly took off his mask, revealing a head full of blonde hair and a miserable white face.

It's the gold and silver.

And the man with the hat also exclaimed: "It's you!"

This young Taoist is Bai Yujing, who returned from Japan, Bai Yujing casually lost a son, and he didn't care about Jin Yin'er, and smiled at Li Shizhen: "Mr. Li, I said back then that your medical book would cause big trouble, and you see that your news just spread and attracted such a small person." ”

Li Shizhen just smiled and didn't say anything, but Jin Yin'er's face changed, and she hurriedly said, "Second brother, you misunderstood." I didn't come here to snatch this medical scripture, but this Mr. Li wanted to dedicate this scripture to the imperial court, so I came here to stop it. ”

"Why is this?" Bai Yujing then looked at Jin Yin'er.

"The second brother doesn't know that since you left, the East Factory of the Imperial Court has become more and more rampant. The Shaolin Temple is not out of the mountain, and the entire northern rivers and lakes are only my free faction to compete with it. The dedication of this book to the imperial court is tantamount to subsidizing the East Factory, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the rivers and lakes will be difficult, and I will not be able to return to the sky. ”

Jin Yin'er said this very sincerely, but Yin Jiufeng felt that he had fallen into the name of the Loose Sect, and when he was about to speak, he felt a chill all over his body. I saw that Bai Yujing's gaze was like a sword, and his whole consciousness suddenly hurt, and he almost fainted.

When Bai Yujing's gaze moved away from him, he felt light, and he couldn't help but be horrified in his heart, he couldn't calm down for a long time, and he didn't dare to think rashly.

"Your free faction has already dominated the world, and you can't even control an East Factory?"

Jin Yin'er was ashamed when he heard this: "In the name of the imperial court, Dongchang has recruited eagle claws, and has recruited many famous demon masters over the years. For example, the first master of the East Factory, Shura Dao, has a human body like King Kong, and three months ago, I ambushed this person with the Yin and Yang Ersuo, but I couldn't hurt his golden body, so I could only let him escape. ”

Bai Yujing nodded and looked at the man wearing the hat.

The man didn't wait for Bai Yujing to speak, and spoke first: "I was easily defeated by you here fifteen years ago, and I came here to avenge the revenge of the day. ”
