The Tsing Yi man Yu Chenghei is only twenty years old, and this time he followed Yu Fan to do things, but he was just out of the rivers and lakes, and it was the time when his blood was strong, and he did not get rid of his youthful nature. Hearing Yu Fan say this, although he nodded yes on the surface, he secretly thought in his heart: "It has been nearly 20 years since my brother of the same clan debuted, and he has been mixed in the rivers and lakes and officialdom for a long time, so he can't help but be a little old-fashioned. These brothers of the same clan of the older generation have gone through many ups and downs, and they are full of vigor and twilight. I have to be vigilant all the time, but not in a few years, like them. ”

Yu Fan has been in officialdom and rivers and lakes for a long time, and is good at perceiving people's hearts. Then he said: "Recently, a young swordsman suddenly appeared in the rivers and lakes, and his martial arts are extremely good. What's even worse is that no one knows what this person had experienced before he appeared. It is precisely because no one knows the origin of this person's martial arts that Tang He, Yun Feiyang and other great masters will be taken by him and folded in his hands one after another. Cheng Hei, you are a master personally trained by the fourth grandfather, and it is not difficult to become the first person in this martial arts in the future. It's just that the young man's heart is sharp, but there is something wrong. ”

Although Yu Chenghei was unconvinced, he didn't dare to refute it openly, so he had to nod again and again, and said: "The adult has taught me a great lesson, and the heir should remember it." ”

Yu Fan patted Yu Chenghei's right shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Although you and I are more than twenty years apart, in terms of generation, we are brothers of the same clan. It's just that what we do on this trip is related to the lives and safety of more than 100 people in the door, so we have to act cautiously. Seven grandfathers have been running around all their lives, and four of them have unfortunately died, and the remaining three are also injured or disabled, so they found a clue. The uncles worked hard for six years and finally came up with such a seamless plan. You and I are both the pioneers of this plan and the key to its success or failure. Two years ago, you were only called 'Lord' and not 'Brother' in your clan, and you treated me as a servant to serve your master, which is really a misservice to you. ”

Yu Chenghei's heart was sour, and he said in a trembling voice: "My lord is serious, this is the matter of the heir. ”

Yu Fan shook his head and said: "In the past five or six hundred years, I don't know how many ancestors have lost their lives, disappeared, and been crippled for this matter, even if some ancestors have not suffered misfortune, they have lived a depressed life. You and my brother will do everything in our power to put an end to this misfortune for both of you and me, so that future generations will no longer suffer from this suffering. ”

Yu Chengsi said respectfully: "Follow the teachings of the adults. ”

The two chatted a few more words, and Yu Chengsi pointed to the wine and food on the table and said, "My lord, these wine and food ......"

Yu Fan didn't wait for him to finish, and then said in a deep voice: "There is no harm in being cautious in everything. These drinks are not to be eaten. Tomorrow morning, put all the food and drinks in a cloth bag, and when you leave the inn, find a safe place to throw them away. ”

Yu Chengsi sniffed the wine and sighed: "It's a pity that this good daughter is red." ”

After the two cleaned up, they blew out the candles and went to bed to rest. A moment later, Yu Chenghei was already snoring loudly. Yu Fan was full of worries, and he couldn't sleep for a long time while lying in bed. I unintentionally turned my head to look out the window, but through the window paper, I could see the shadows of the trees shaking, which added to the sadness. He quietly got out of bed, walked to the window, and gently pushed it open.

At this time, it was already the middle of the day, and a bright moon shone on the earth, and it was like a heavy snowfall, reflecting a hazy white light everywhere. There are no people on the street for a long time, standing on the upper floor of Tianyi Inn and looking out, you can see the lanterns lit on the city wall of Luoyang in the distance. Other than that, there was no sparkle.

Yu Fan stood in front of the window, looking at the huge Luoyang City, which was so quiet, and his heart was full of emotion. The past of decades suddenly came to my mind, and I couldn't help but sigh softly. At this moment, he inadvertently glanced at the corner of the street on the right, but saw a stone archway standing on the corner of the street, but there was a person standing under the stone archway. This man was wearing a deep hat and a gray coat, and he was looking up at the Tianyi Inn.

The two of them went up and down, one high and one low, separated by more than 20 feet, although they couldn't see each other's faces clearly, they could feel the opponent's knife-like gaze.

When the man saw Yu Fan looking at him, he immediately lowered his head, and the wide hat immediately covered his face tightly. Yu Fan's heart sank, and he turned his head to wake up Yu Chenghe, but after thinking about it, Yu Chenghei was impatient, and if he found that someone was spying on the two, he would definitely rush out to compete with that person. This Luoyang City hides the dragon and crouching tiger, and it has a heavy responsibility, which has alarmed the government, and I am afraid that it will not be beautiful. With this in mind, he dismissed his thoughts and turned to look at the corner of the street. But when he saw a figure under the stone archway, he thought that the person wearing a deep hat had quietly left when he turned his head.

Yu Fan was shocked in his heart, stretched out his hand to gently close the window, peeked out through the gap in the window for a long time, and saw that there was no more than half a figure, so he slowly walked back to the bed, and lay on the bed with his clothes. He thought about the plan that had been deduced countless times between the same sect from beginning to end in his heart, and was sure that there was no flaw, so he was a little relieved, and secretly thought that the gray-clothed man was most likely a disciple of a local gang in Luoyang, and was sent by the elders of his own sect to monitor him outside the inn. If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for a momentary mistake and save the two naughty boys. At a time when the relations between the various local gangs were complicated, and they were fighting openly and secretly with each other, and at a time when a wonderful balance of power was being maintained, someone suddenly showed his martial arts in front of thousands of ordinary people, which would certainly cause the gangs to be uneasy, and they were afraid that the gangs that were hostile to them would make any changes, and it was the moment when the overall situation was affected. And the more moments like this, the more you have to pretend that nothing happened. As the saying goes, it's not weird, it's self-defeating. As long as the two major gangs of Shi Jiadao and Lei Fist Sect don't make trouble for themselves, the rest of the small gangs can't make any waves. After three or four days, he arrived in Xiuwu County to take office, and he no longer had to worry about any entanglements with these martial arts gangs in Luoyang. Thinking of this, Yu Fan was relieved, and unconsciously, he fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Yu Fan took out an old shirt from his luggage, poured all the dishes into the shirt, wrapped it, and spilled a pot of wine all over the room. At this time, the little second child brought the food box and sent it up, saying that early in the morning, the historian sent someone to send the wine and food to the cabinet, and asked the old man to enjoy it. In addition, Luoyang City Jinxiufang sent a bag of clothes, saying that it was the fourth master of Lei Fist who made clothes, shoes and socks for the two masters in Jinxiufang yesterday evening. More than a dozen embroidery girls in the splendid workshop did not sleep all night, and finally finished their clothes before dawn and sent them to Tianyi Inn in the morning.

Yu Chengsi saw the food box, although his index finger moved, but thinking of Yu Fan's words, he had to swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva. Yu Fan didn't expect that these two gangs would send gifts in the morning, which confirmed his speculation last night. He knows that the rivers and lakes are the most disciplined, and people in the martial arts have the best face, and he must not return the gifts sent by the two major gangs, otherwise he will have to form a grudge. pretended to be a surprise at the moment, took the wine, food and clothes, and rewarded the small two coins of broken silver. The little second was naturally overjoyed and left happily.

When the little second child walked away, Yu Fan whispered to Cheng Hei: "These two gangs wrestle with each other, and neither of us can offend." In the past two days, they have only pretended to be sightseeing, and they naturally dare not embarrass us. ”

After the two of them cleaned up, they left the room. When the two arrived at the door of the inn, the shopkeeper and Xiao Er came forward in the morning, accompanied by a smiling face, and even said that they were not well greeted. Yu Fan politely said a few words, and saw a beggar sitting at the door of the inn, secretly staring at himself from time to time, and there were several idlers not far away, who were gathering together to talk. It's just that these people's eyes are like lightning, their bodies are tall, and they are obviously all martial arts practitioners. Yu Fan pretended not to care, and casually asked the shopkeeper and Xiao Er about the location of Emperor Guan's Shengjun Temple. The shopkeeper hurriedly told Yu Fan the detailed route, and Zhang Luo wanted to find a small sedan chair for Yu Fan. Yu Fan hurriedly refused, only saying that he wanted to walk around at will and enjoy the scenery outside Luoyang City, so the shopkeeper gave up.

Yu Fan and Yu Chengsi left the Tianyi Inn and walked towards the south of the city. After leaving the south gate of Luoyang City, I went straight to the south all the way. After walking out of fifteen or sixteen miles, I saw a house with red walls and blue tiles in the distance. At this time, there were more pedestrians around, listening to them, they were all pilgrims who were going to the temple of Emperor Guan Shengjun to offer incense. Yu Fan knew that there must be people in the rivers and lakes who were monitoring him, but he didn't take it to heart. After walking for a while, I arrived at the gate of the Guandi Shengjun Temple.

I saw a white archway with five rooms and six pillars standing in front of the gate, which was very majestic and majestic. After the archway, it is the gate of the temple of Emperor Guandi. The gate is a palace-style house with green tiles and four large red columns standing in front of the gate. At this time, the red gate has been opened, and pilgrims from all over the world are walking towards the temple in an endless stream. Yu Fan and Yu Chenghei mixed in the crowd and slowly walked into the temple.

After entering the gate, there is a long road in front of you, leading straight to the main hall more than ten zhang away. This corridor is more than one zhang wide, there are stone railings on both sides, there are 36 pillars in total, and more than 100 stone lions are carved on the pillars. Outside the stone fence of the road, there are dozens of towering ancient trees. At this time, in the cold winter season, the branches of the ancient trees are like iron, just like a member of the majestic general, standing outside the main hall, guarding the big tent of the Chinese army for Guan Yu, the first military general in China in the past.

Yu Fan held his hands, Yu Chengsi followed closely behind him, and the two followed the pilgrims along the corridor towards the main hall. At this time, the pilgrims who rushed to the temple early in the morning had lit high incense in front of the main hall, and the whole temple of Emperor Guan Shengjun was full of smoke and strange fragrance.

Yu Fan looked at the situation in front of him, recalling that he had been here more than 30 years ago, but his parents had passed away with him, and he sighed with emotion. When he was sighing in his heart about the ruthlessness of the years, he heard Yu Chengji lower his voice and said in his ear: "My lord, the person who rescued the drama in Cuiyun Peak yesterday is also here. ”

Yu Fan's heart sank, but he knew that there were a lot of eyeliners around him, and he pretended to be casual, and said in a low voice: "Which one is it?"

Yu Chengsi said in a low voice: "That person is ten steps in front of the right side of the adult, wearing a gray coat......"

At this time, the two of them had reached the end of the corridor, in front of the main hall. Yu Fan looked forward as he said, but saw a huge stone trough on the left side of the entrance of the main hall, which was full of incense and candles. And not far behind the stone trough, sure enough, there was a man in gray standing. When Yu Fan looked over, it happened that this person turned his head. The two looked at each other, and Yu Fan's heart sank, and he already recognized that this person was the gray-clothed man wearing a deep hat who stood on the corner of the street last night and looked at the Tianyi Inn, but he was not wearing a hat at this time. Although Yu Fan didn't see this person's face clearly last night, he remembered this person's figure, and more importantly, when the two of them met their eyes, it was the same as last night.

The man in gray was not surprised, smiled at Yu Fan, nodded, and seemed to say hello to him.
