"I heard that the predecessor of the Sword Saint is the leader of the 'Golden Rooster Sect', it is this strange dress, but he is far away in the southwest, how could he come to this Qinghe City?"

The one-armed old man who was fighting with Lu Sanyuan's men just now said to himself.

"Oh, you don't believe the old man?"

"The younger generation doesn't dare, but the younger generation is not blessed to see his old man, speaking of which, his old man has great kindness to the younger generation. ”

"Oh, you're ......"

"The junior Ink Guild will be the rudder master of the Plains County Branch Helmsman Wei Zimu. ”

"Wei Zimu?" Jinji Daoist didn't have the slightest impression.

"That's right, when the junior brother of the younger generation went to the Dian Kingdom to eradicate the 'Ten Thousand Poison Sect' from Jimo General Helm ten years ago, he was unfortunately poisoned in his body, and thanks to the rescue of the Sword Saint seniors, he was lucky enough to pick up his life. ”

"Oh, it turns out that you are the junior brother of Song Qing of the 'Iron Abacus', and it is dangerous to say, if the old man arrives a moment late, it will be difficult to save the immortals. ”

"Sure enough, it's the senior of the Sword Saint, and the junior has kowtowed to your old man for the senior brother. ”

As he spoke, Wei Zimu knelt on his knees and kowtowed his head with a bang.

"It's a trivial matter, why worry about it, Song Daxia also asked for the people's lives back then, and only with the help of volunteers did he deal with the 'Ten Thousand Poisons Sect'. However, Song Daxia promised to wait for the old man to go to Jimo and have a big meal, but after so many years, he still hasn't fulfilled it. ”

"Senior brother, he... He's been... Passed away. ”

After that, Wei Zimu choked up.

At this time, Zhang Zhaozhen said, "Heroes, the Sword Saint is here today, and it is really full of brilliance. Third Master Lu, Lord Wei Helm, why don't you go into the house together, sit down and drink a glass of water and wine, explain the misunderstanding, I don't know what you think?"

"Sword Saint senior, please!" Zhang Wenjing gave in.

"Alright then, the old man will tell you about it. ”

Since the Sword Saint said this, what else could the others say, and they followed him into the house.

Zhang Zhaozhen invited the Jinji Daoist to take a seat, and he was also unceremoniously, saying while sitting, "It's not enough to just drink tea, the old man is already hungry, hurry up and serve snacks." ”

In a word, the atmosphere in the room has eased a lot.

Everyone sat down, Zhang Zhaozhen introduced each other, and Cao Cao figured out what happened.

It turned out that since Cao Cao Cao and Cao Hong left, Mo Wenxue and Qin Hongyi tried to find out the news of Lu Wanggu's people, and he and his wife had helped mediate the conflict between Lu Wanggu and Hei Yegang, so they hoped to meet the other party's head in order to explain the misunderstanding in person.

It's a pity that I searched for half a day, but I found nothing. Or Zhang Liao analyzed that since the other party claimed to have lost the princess, it would be a great disaster for Lu Wanggu, so the other party could not just expect us to look for it, and the head of the house in Gu would definitely go through other ways and methods. Moreover, the other party must be more unstable than us, and it is designated that someone will be sent to inquire, rather than going to great lengths to rummage through Qinghe City, it is better to wait for the rabbit and wait for the other party to come.

Sure enough, early the next morning, Lu Sanyuan brought a large group of people here to question, and Mo Daxia took the opportunity to explain, who knew that Lu Sanyuan didn't listen at all, and he couldn't be the master, and he didn't want to take Mo Daxia to see the second master.

So, when the day came, Mo Daxia and his wife secretly followed Lu Sanyuan, hoping to find Lu Wanggu's second master, who knew that he had not come back until now. Zhang Liao and the others were worried about Mo Daxia's safety, so they went to answer early this morning, but they never returned.

Just when everyone was like ants on a hot pot, Lu Sanyuan came to ask again, saying that Cao Cao must have absconded in fear of crime, and threatened

To pay for the blood debt, fortunately, the Wei Zimu helmsman of the Ink Guild led the two elders Wu and Yue to come to the rescue, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

And Cao Cao also briefly recounted what happened in Julu City, and occasionally the Golden Rooster Daoist interjected to add.

"What, you and the princess have already been married?" Lu Sanyuan jumped up, picked up his long knife and slashed at Cao Cao.

Jinji Dao is quick with his eyes, and his fingers pop out a drop of water from the teacup, and with lightning speed, he bounces on the Lu Sanyuan long knife, and the long knife is deflected from the direction and falls to the ground.

The Jinji Daoist made this move, and immediately suppressed everyone present.

Lu Sanyuan also knew that this sword saint's martial arts were unfathomable, so he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he only stomped his feet and scolded in a hurry.

The dignified emperor's family, the golden branch and jade leaf, how can he marry such a poor boy?!

But the predecessor of the Sword Saint is highly respected and famous in the martial arts, he has witnessed it with his own eyes, can there be a fake?

After scolding Cao Cao, Lu Sanyuan scolded Zhang Jiao and Wang Jianfeng again, scolded to the depths of love, threw the long knife, squatted on the ground and cried.

Zhang Zhaozhen and the others were busy with kind words and comfort, and everyone was a little moved when they saw this rough man acting so loyally.

Wei Zimu thought for a while and said, "Everyone, the Sword Saint seniors and Cao Shaoxia have just returned from Julu City, and it is a pity that Princess Sanssouci and Night Pearl have been lost, but the whereabouts of the princess are clear, and the misunderstanding between us and us will naturally melt away." The current plan is to share the enemy's hatred and discuss a foolproof plan to save the princess. ”

What he said was also what Cao Cao wanted to say, "Wei Duo is reasonable! The three seniors are chivalrous and helpful, and the younger generations are grateful." ”

"Young Xia is polite, as an ink man, saving people from distress is the legacy of the ancestors. Besides, Mo Daxia is a rectangular man, does he dare to obey his summons?"

Cao Cao naturally knew that all the inkers in the world had to obey the orders of the leader Juzi, presumably the plain rudder was closer to this, so he ordered Wei Zimu to come to help.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Wei Zimu said again, "The princess is in the hands of Zhang Jiao, this matter is not trivial, I am afraid that Lu Sanye will not be able to be the master, so it is better to take everyone to discuss countermeasures with the second master, and at the same time release the innocent hostages." ”

That's all, and no one has any objections.

It's just that everyone is quite tired at this moment, so they decided to have lunch first and rest for a while. Moreover, the two elders Cao Hong, Wu Yue, and some of Lu Sanyuan's subordinates were all injured and urgently needed Zhang Zhaozhen and others to be treated.

Seeing that things had finally taken a turn for the better, Zhang Zhaozhen and others were also very happy, and they did their best to be friendly with the landlords and hospitality, and everyone was not polite.

When you're full of food and drink, you're ready to go.

According to Wei Zimu's idea, Cao Hong and Wu Yue were injured and stayed for treatment, while he, the Sword Saint, Cao Cao and others followed Lu Sanyuan and others to meet Lu Wanggu's second master.

Walking on the road, Cao Cao learned the mysterious face of the second master from Lu Sanyuan.

The second master is named Wang Xiang, who was the descendant of Wang Qian, a general under the First Emperor of Qin, and after the death of Qin, his ancestors also followed the Ying family to Lu Wanggu, but in his generation, the family was already poor, but he had great ambitions since he was a child, and strived to make progress, and worked hard to study the military book formation left by his ancestors, and he has achieved a small success.

And he is filial piety, one winter, the old mother was seriously ill, and wanted to drink fish soup when she was dying, Wang Xiang didn't say a word, took off his cotton clothes, ran to the Guao pond, melted the ice hard, and caught a carp.

Because of this, when the old master heard his deeds, he took him to his side and kept him, and cultivated him carefully, and Wang Xiang

also lived up to expectations, and with his merits, he rose step by step to the position of the second leader.

Speaking of which, Lu Sanyuan added that in fact, the second master designed to arrest Zhang Mei and others, all because the princess was robbed, but it did not hurt anyone, but was temporarily placed under house arrest.

In the temple in Lu Sanyuan's mouth, it refers to the 'Lingquan Temple', which is located on the Cang Embankment fifty miles southeast of Qinghe City.

The terrain of Qinghe City is not high, the further southeast it goes, the higher the terrain, and after walking dozens of miles, everyone walked to a wide and long earthen embankment.

This earthen embankment is close to the edge of the Wei River, the flat ground is rammed, two or three zhang high, more than ten zhang wide, from the northwest to the southeast, meandering and not knowing hundreds of miles long.

Moreover, this earthen embankment also has a household name, and it has been recorded in the annals of history.

This name is known to women and children, like thunder, Cao Cao never thought that the high embankment built by Dayu in the legend is here.

To be precise, this is the witness of water control left by the two generations of Kun and Yu's father and son.

Since he was a child, Cao Cao has admired such a famous figure in history.

For some reason, with his feet on the top of the embankment built more than 2,000 years ago, Cao Cao's heart was full of passion, and it seemed that a mysterious power rushed into his body from the soles of his feet.

Lu Sanyuan led the way in front, zigzags and turns, and walked along the river.

The sky is about to get dark, and I can vaguely see a large blurred outline of the building in front of me, which is probably 'Lingquan Temple'.

According to Lu Sanyuan, the place where Zhang Mei and others were imprisoned, that is, Lu Wanggu's temporary post station here, was the Lingquan Temple located on the Cang Embankment.

Lingquan Temple, as the name suggests, leads to a spiritual spring from the Wei River, saying that it is a spring, in fact, it is the water of the Wei River, but this tributary gives the crops of the nearby people as a sweet spring, so the people are grateful to build this Lingquan Temple.

When everyone walked to the front, they saw that this temple did not occupy a large area, and the outer brick walls were painted pale yellow, showing solemnity and solemnity.

Lu Sanyuan personally called the door, and then the door of the vermilion temple creaked open, and the two little novices clasped their hands together and saluted, "Third master, please come in." ”

Cao Cao and others entered the courtyard, and saw a pool of clear water, which was a pool full of lotus flowers, which occupied almost half of the courtyard, the lotus branches were slim and elegant, the lotus flowers were graceful and colorful, and the lotus fragrance was refreshing.

There is a bamboo bridge leading directly to the main hall from the gate, there is a pavilion in the middle of the bamboo road, the four corners are a red pillar of one zhang high, supporting the top of the jujube red pavilion, and under the pavilion is a dark green wooden table and wooden bench. The pavilion grows out of the water, and the large umbrella generally holds up a scenery in the pool.

And under the pavilion, Cao Cao saw the Mo couple and Zhang Liao at a glance.

Mo Wenxue and a middle-aged man sat on the sidelines, playing chess on a wooden table, while the woman in red sat quietly and watched the battle.

Zhang Liao was sitting on a wooden bench fishing with an old monk in a robe.

What's going on?

Didn't Mo Daxia and his wife track it down and explain the misunderstanding with Lu Wanggu's second master?

And Zhang Liao, since he came out to look for it, why did he stay here?

Could the middle-aged man and the old monk be Lu Wanggu's people?

In order to worry about the robbery of the princess, the two sides are already on the same page, the three-day deadline has arrived, and the fight is about to break out, how can there be such leisure and elegance?
