Chapter 94: The Wind Rises and the Tide Rises
I haven't seen anything in my heart, and I don't know what to do. Liu Feng and Chen Quan returned to the city and ate some refreshments in the small restaurant, and Chen Quan left first on the grounds that he was unwell. Liu Feng picked up a bowl of tea and took a sip of tea, and when he saw Chen Quan's distant back, the corners of his mouth pursed a contemptuous smile.
Then Liu Feng took out the Jiuwen line from his arms, asked the old man to wrap two baked cakes, and then walked away. Chen Quan returned to the beggar gang and told the Gao gang leader about the situation after his meeting with Liu Feng. A sinister smile appeared on the face of the Gao gang leader, and he praised Chen Quan for doing a good job.
But Chen Quan was frightened, he told Gao Gao Yi that he had killed the guards patrolling the river, and if Governor Ding knew about it, he would definitely not give up. The high gang leader asked Chen Quan to relax, and he would take care of this matter himself.
Liu Feng observed not far from the river, there was no trace of the sails on the calm river, and there was no dust and smoke rising along the shore, he knew that the government had not yet learned what had happened last night. He knew that Zhang Ziyi would definitely look for his mother, so he came here to investigate, hoping that he could help him.
He only searched for the deep and lush grass, and when he stepped on one place, he seemed to be trapped. Liu Feng leaned over and picked up the artemisia grass on both sides, but the place where he was leaning against the stone wall was a cave. He opened the fire fold and slowly approached the cave, which was deep and dark.
Liu Feng continued to move forward, and suddenly there was a slight cough in his ears, and Liu Feng shouted: "Brother Zhang, is it you?"
Since Zhang Ziyi knew that the person who came called out his name, it would be useless to hide again, so he appeared.
Seeing Liu Feng, Zhang Ziyi couldn't hold back his grief, and Liu Feng also felt a lot of guilt in his heart. Zhang Ziyi brushed his sleeves to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, and asked Liu Feng what he was looking for him to do?
Liu Feng told Zhang Ziyi that he planned to unite with Elder Xiao to help Gang Leader Yang regain his position as the gang leader, and as long as Gang Leader Yang could return to the Beggar Gang, he could deal with Governor Ding and Jinyiwei. So he wanted to ask Zhang Ziyi to help and deal with Gao Gao Yi together.
Zhang Ziyi shook his head when he heard this, and he said to Liu Feng: "Even if the Ding Governor's Mansion is overthrown, the mother cannot be resurrected, and there is another Li Governor's Mansion, Wang Governor's Mansion, and Ding Governor's Mansion, what can I do?"
Liu Feng saw that Zhang Ziyi was disheartened, and it was futile to persuade him, so he told him to pay more attention to everything. left twenty taels of silver for Zhang Ziyi, and after leaving the cave, he went to find Elder Xiao.
Elder Xiao got Liu Feng's secret appointment to go out of the beggar gang, and he came to the listening rainforest and saw that Liu Feng was already waiting there. Elder Xiao looked around and said to Liu Feng, "What is the matter with you asking me here in a hurry. ”
Liu Feng took out the rubbed letter from his bosom and handed it to Elder Xiao. Elder Xiao took the letter and looked at it, the anger in his heart condensed on his face, and he said to Liu Feng: "Gao Gaoyi, the scum of the beggar gang, is actually willing to act as an eagle dog of the court for the sake of glory and wealth, what face does he have to meet the gang leaders of the past dynasties. ”
Liu Feng also told Elder Xiao that the Holy Hand scholar Zhang Ziyi had ruined his family because of this. After hearing this, Elder Xiao couldn't help but sigh. Then he asked Liu Feng, do you have any specific plans?
Liu Feng replied to Elder Xiao that he should try to find Gang Leader Yang now, while he went back to secretly monitor Gao Yi's every move in order to wait for an opportunity.
Elder Xiao nodded after hearing this, and the two of them had already decided on a plan. Elder Xiao went to find Gang Leader Yang and waited for news from Liu Feng to determine his next move.
Liu Feng returned to the beggar gang, and Chen Quanzheng sent people to look for him everywhere. Liu Feng covered the door, and Chen Quan gave him another secret letter. After receiving the secret letter, Chen Quan said to Liu Feng: "The day after tomorrow, I will listen to the meeting of the Rainforest Beggars Gang, and the high gang will see the reaction of everyone, and you will give this letter to Lord Tian, the envoy of Jinyi Weizhen." ”
Liu Feng nodded, he asked Chen Quan, how should he reply when he saw Lord Tian?
Chen Quan told Liu Feng that he didn't need to say anything or ask anything when he saw Lord Tian, just present the letter and return immediately.
Taking advantage of the bleak moonlight, Liu Feng rubbed the contents of the letter again, although there was no help from Zhang Ziyi, fortunately, the letter was not sealed with wax. He believed that this was Chen Quan's trust in himself, otherwise he would not have disclosed such important information to himself, and the letter was also handled simply.
Coming to the marching garrison of the envoy of the town, the two brocade guards drew out embroidered spring knives and surrounded Liu Fengtuan. Before he could speak, the snow-like embroidered spring knife, flashing with cold light, slashed towards Liu Feng.
He rolled over and leaped, dodging again and again. After a while, one of the brocade guards said, "I see that you are just blindly dodging and not attacking us, is there something wrong with you?"
Liu Feng clasped his fists at him and said, "I'm here to find Lord Tian, the pacification envoy." ”
Jin Yiwei took back the embroidered spring knife and led Liu Feng into the mansion. When they reached the entrance of the main hall, the two retreated. They said, "Lord Tian is inside, you can knock on the door and go in." ”
With that, the two disappeared into the night. Liu Feng knocked on the door, and there was a deep sound of response from inside. Liu Feng pushed the door in, and Tian Ergeng was fiddling with his iron hand, looking at Liu Feng with cold eyes.
Liu Feng thought of Chen Quan's instructions, took out the secret letter from his arms, and respectfully handed it to Tian Ergeng. Tian Ergeng's sharp eyes glanced at the secret letter, and then moved his gaze to Liu Feng's body.
After a while, Tian Ergeng said coldly: "You can go." Liu Feng bowed and left, although it was a moment's stay just now, but Tian Ergeng's silent interrogation made Liu Feng shudder. The terrible thing about the deep man is that he is like a wolf hunting in the shadows,
He can keenly catch the prey he wants. As for the prey itself, there is no way to know whether there is any danger here.
After sending the secret letter, Liu Feng didn't dare to go to Elder Xiao, if he delayed the time on the road, with Chen Quan's astwality, he would definitely notice it, and all the efforts he had made would be in vain.
It was Liu Feng who handed over the secret letter of rubbing to Elder Xiao in the form of a flying pigeon. Elder Xiao knew that since Gang Leader Yang was plotted by Gao Gaoyi and left the Beggar Gang, there was no news. It's really hard to find out where he lands. Fortunately, he had left a special contact code with Gang Leader Yang in the past, and Elder Xiao came to Feiying Stream and carved a poplar mark under the big bluestone. After leaving a mark, Elder Xiao turned to leave.
Soon after, a man took the fire fold and came to the Flying Eagle Stream. He sighed to himself beside the big bluestone, and the fists in his hands clenched loudly. It can be seen that there is infinite sorrow and grief in his heart.
This person is none other than Yang Changzhi. On this trip to Ezhou, he didn't gain much. His cronies were all excluded and suppressed by Gao Gaoyi, and now it is difficult for him to find a helper.
Thinking of the scene in the past, Gang Leader Yang thought of Elder Xiao. But the idea of this flash was put on hold. At that time, he faced the doubts and accusations of the elders, and Elder Xiao was also fierce, and he was very dissatisfied with letting go of the two of them.
In the future, Gao Gaoyi became the helper, and Xiao Changzhu got his respect, and now he is looking for him, I am afraid that there will be some danger. Gang Leader Yang felt nostalgic, and walked around the big bluestone, and suddenly where the firelight flickered, he saw the mark left by Elder Xiao. Poplar mark, Yang Gang Leader's thoughts fluctuate in his heart, this is not a simple contact code for him, but also through it, he can experience another layer of deep meaning.
This is Elder Xiao Mingzhi to Gang Leader Yang, he wants to gain the trust of the Gang Leader and help him regain his position as Gang Leader. While Gang Leader Yang was secretly happy, there was also a trace of worry in his heart, if this was Elder Xiao's strategy, if he met this time, he would fall into a trap.
But the flame of hatred reminds Gang Leader Yang all the time. Thinking of the deaths of Elder Wu, Elder Chen, and Xu Changjiang, Gang Leader Yang only had courage in his heart, and it was time to break off his grudge with Gao Gaoyi.
Gang Leader Yang performed light skills and went to the Strange Stone Valley to meet Elder Xiao. In the dark night, the wind in the empty valley was blowing, and the sound of whimpering was breathtaking. Gang Leader Yang was completely fearless, and continued to move forward with the faint light of the fire. There was also a person walking towards him, and the firelight was staggered, and they all recognized the other side.
Elder Xiao said, "Gang Master Yang, don't come unharmed. ”
Gang Leader Yang chuckled lightly and said to Elder Xiao: "Yang has a big life, and in the hands of traitors, he escaped by luck. ”
Elder Xiao also laughed, and he told Gang Leader Yang, "If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing in the future." Gang Leader Yang waved his hand and told Elder Xiao in a tone of resentment, "Whether there is a future blessing or not, he never thought about it, and when he comes back this time, he is bound to fight to the death with Gao Gaoyi." ”
Elder Xiao nodded, and Gang Leader Yang spoke quickly, and asked Elder Xiao if he invited him late at night, was it good or evil?
Elder Xiao took out the secret letter from his bosom and told Gang Leader Yang that this was a letter written by Gao Gao Yi to Tian Ergeng, the envoy of Jinyi Wei Town. After that, Elder Xiao used Xiao Shi to impeach the secret letter to Gang Leader Yang.
As soon as the Yang gang leader opened the letter, the words in the letter were vague and unpredictable. But from its handwriting, it is indeed from the hand of Gao Yi.
Gang Leader Yang sneered again and again, and said to Elder Xiao: "What's the point of me reading the content of such a cloud and mountain fog cover?"
Elder Xiao told Gang Leader Yang to take a break from being anxious. Then he told Gang Leader Yang about Liu Feng's intention to cooperate with the outside and help eliminate Gao Gao Yi and Chen Quan.
Gang Leader Yang pondered slightly, took the letter, and said to Elder Xiao: "If you want to come to this letter, it is also the one named Liu Feng, so please reveal it to you." ”
Elder Xiao nodded, and the Yang Gang saw that there was another helper, and the expression on his face became even more resolute. After asking Elder Xiao about the preparations for the beggar gang conference, he got the definite news, that is, the Gao Gao Yi Society secretly asked the Jinyi Guard to kill those gangs who were unwilling to accept the drive of the imperial court.
Gang Leader Yang told Elder Xiao that he must let Liu Feng pay close attention to Jinyiwei's movements. He will appear at the beggars' assembly to expose the identities of these people in order to thwart the plot of Gao Yi.
The cold wind blew through the west of the small bridge, and the autumn cold leaves were bleak. The dark fight was quietly born in the bleak wind.
