Just thinking about it, I heard Elder Qi say proudly: "I'm afraid that the dog thief won't go far, if Lin Gongzi remembers your father's friendship with our beggar gang, he will lead the way to the place where you agreed to meet, otherwise, he will also die in the wilderness, and the beggar gang will not be able to take his head and blood sacrifice himself!"

Tang Zimu said slowly: "Elder Qi will take down the long sword first." Seeing that Qi Fan withdrew his long sword, Fang turned his head to Lin Jianlan and said: "Lin Gongzi, I advise you to take us to the meeting place you agreed upon, if you refuse to reveal it, you are strong in martial arts, and you are the righteous son of the Lin Gang Master, and you will come and go with you in the beggar gang rudder, we will definitely not stop and hurt you." It's just that we beggars have nothing else, that is, there are many disciples, if I gather the disciples to go out to the west gate to look for it at this moment, it will not take many hours to find Lei Kan, maybe which disciple is eager for revenge, he will have to worry about his life. ”

Although the words were threatening, Lin Jianlan knew that what he was telling was also the truth, it seemed that Lei Kan was hit hard, even if he escaped the search, I am afraid that his life would be hanging by a thread, not to mention that he rushed to Chang'an with him.

Thinking of this, Lin Jianlan said: "In this case, I will take you to the meeting place, just to promise to see Lei Kan in the next article, all the reasons are to convince him that he has been injured and can no longer use force against him, and someone needs to treat him immediately." ”

Qi Fan said angrily: "You have to inch too much!"

Tang Zimu shook his head at him, and said with a smile: "I can trust Lin Gongzi, please lead the way!"

When everyone went out of the West Gate, there were already disciples in the beggar gang holding torches to light the road, Lin Jianlan felt a pang in his heart and hurriedly went west. Because Tang Zimu didn't know martial arts, it was inconvenient for everyone to perform light skills, but their pace was slightly faster, but Tang Zimu was already a little out of breath.

After walking for about an hour, he saw a small mountain col not far away, which was not very noticeable in the night, Lin Jianlan stopped and said softly: "Brother Tang, if you can trust me, please let me go alone, with my long howl, I will definitely live up to my trust." ”

Qi Fan was about to stop him, but he heard Tang Zimu say: "Lin Gongzi will definitely not do anything that violates the friendship between the two gangs, please do it! Come on, prepare the stretcher properly!"

Lin Jianlan admired in his heart, although he had only seen the two elders, Qi Fan and Diao Beidou, he felt that they were either too honest, or they were impatient and violent, and they were not as sleek and appropriate as this young Tang Zimu, no wonder Nian Yongshou was so important to him.

Lin Jianlan swept into the col, looked around, and saw a faint sound of wheezing in a low bush with the moonlight on his back, and hurriedly stepped forward to remove the branches, sure enough, it was Lei Kan, and his stomach was already blood-red, and he saw Lin Jianlan and said reluctantly: "Lin Gongzi, I'm afraid I can't take you to my family's appointment with the master." ”

Lin Jianlan saw that he still hadn't found out about the Nian Gang Master, sighed, took out a pill from his arms, crushed it and poured it into Lei Kan's mouth, and crossed a little bit of true anger, Fang looked directly at Lei Kan and said, "Brother Lei, can you trust me?"

Lei Kan was a little puzzled when he heard him ask like this, and only replied after a while: "Young Master Lin, you don't hesitate to offend the beggars to protect me all the way, I don't believe who can you trust?"

Lin Jianlan said: "Then you will listen to me and don't interject." Outside this mountain pass, there are all people who help Luoyang divide the rudder, and I brought them here. ”

Lei Kan was startled, and was about to get up, but his shoulders were firmly held down by Lin Jianlan, and he was about to speak, remembering his instructions, he closed his mouth again, just looking at Lin Jianlan in the moonlight, his eyes shimmering, his lips slightly opened, and he said word by word: "The Nian gang leader has been killed after you left Chang'an!"

As soon as the words fell, Lin Jianlan only felt a huge tremor on the shoulders that were tightly pressed by his hands, Lei Kan's eyes widened, and he vomited blood in a mouthful of "wow" for a long time.

Lin Jianlan crossed some true anger, and then stared at Lei Kan and said: "The beggar gang believes that the Nian gang leader was killed by you, but I have walked with you all the way, and I am convinced that there is something strange about this matter, I am afraid that someone will ask you to be a substitute for the dead." Now that you are wounded, and though I can barely escape with you, your life is in danger, and sooner or later they will catch up with you. I made an agreement with them to bring them here, not to hurt your life, but to treat the injuries and take them to Chang'an, and I will also go all the way to keep you safe, what do you think?"

Lei Kan said: "The matter has come to this, what else can I do, the left and right are just a dead word, but I can't avenge the old gang leader......"

Lin Jianlan pursed his lips and smiled: "Since you can trust me, I will let them come, Brother Lei, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, remember! I am too confident along the way, I am convinced that it is just a small misunderstanding, and I can solve it myself, but I don't want the beggars to hide such a big thing, I will find an opportunity to send a letter back to help discuss with my father-in-law." ”

The beggars waited outside for a long time, but there was no movement, Qi Fan hurriedly said: "These four fields are vast, and there may be some other exit from the mountain pass, if they sneak away, it will be very bad." ”

Tang Zimu smiled and said, "No, Lin Jianlan is not stupid." The implication is that Qi Fan is a little unwise, although Qi Fan is angry, but he doesn't seem to dare to do anything about Tang Zimu, he retreats to the side, but listens to a long howl in the mountain col, cold and lofty, endless, the sound is very small at the beginning, and the more he goes to the back, the louder and louder it becomes.

Tang Zimu couldn't help but show appreciation and said, "Lin Jianlan has such a cultivation at such an age, and he is really a masterpiece!" Glancing to the side, he saw Qi Fan's unconvinced and eager expression, and said with a smile: "Elder Qi, I'm afraid that the helper is the highest in your internal cultivation, and we can't lose him!"

Qi Fan's face really showed excitement, and it was also a long howl, like a crane, he stood among the disciples of the beggar gang, and his voice naturally sounded deafening, which attracted praise from a cadre and others, and Qi Fan was also proud.

Tang Zimu Zhengse said: "Since Lin Jianlan has issued an order, let's go in, don't do anything when you see Lei Kan, first heal his injuries as agreed and then make a decision!"

Lin Longqing saw that the beggar gang disciples all obeyed Tang Zimu's instructions, although his eyes showed resentment, he still supported Lei Kan on the stretcher, and someone had already taken gold sore medicine and clean linen to bandage the wound. Fang turned around and hugged Tang Zimu and said, "Thank you, Brother Tang!

Tang Zimu said: "Thanks to Lin Gongzi, we can get this person, thank you or not, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." ”

Lin Jianlan said: "I can't hide it, the old gang leader's death this time is probably related to my father-in-law's private entrustment a few days ago, and the younger brother can't stand by and watch, I want to escort Lei Kan to Chang'an with you, first, to find out clearly, and second, to pay tribute to the heroic soul of the old gang leader, and also to mourn for my father-in-law." ”

Tang Zimu's eyes flashed with a cold light, he looked Lin Jianlan up and down, suddenly smiled, slowly paced to his side, and whispered sideways: "More things are better than less things, Lin Gongzi's ice-like person, how can he not understand the truth?"

Although there was no wind in the mountain col, Lin Jianlan was excited in his heart when he heard this, and glanced back at Tang Zimu, seeing that although he was smiling, his eyes were cold and ruthless, which was very different from the compassionate expression he had just talked about the refugees.

Lin Jianlan said in his heart: "Although the old gang leader seems to be very arrogant, he is not the kind of person who measures people with money, this Tang Zimu went bankrupt to join the beggar gang, and he must have some ability to convince the old gang leader." I asked in the rudder just now, he may not understand, maybe he knows the strangeness better than me, but he did everything possible to cover up and obstruct it, and Brother Lei's life was like a grassroots in his eyes. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Tang Zimu was unpredictable.

Lin Jianlan turned around and saw Diao Beidou standing aside to command, but Qi Fan followed not far behind him, except for looking this way, he smiled in his heart, turned around and said: "The younger generation has long admired Elder Qi's frank and upright temperament, and I heard that long howl just now, which made the younger generation gain knowledge, I thought it was just a small misunderstanding along the way, but I didn't expect it to be such a big thing, it was really reckless, if there is something offended, the old hero must not blame." "Say goodbye and take a long look.

Qi Fan originally had little contact with him, just because Lin Jianlan prevented the beggars from arresting Lei Kan, so he was a little unhappy with him, and now Lin Jianlan personally led them to find people, and said so well, the anger in his heart just now has long subsided, in all fairness, he really admires the young man in front of him in his heart, so he smiled and said: "It's all a misunderstanding, just solve it!"

Lin Jianlan said with a sad face: "In the rivers and lakes, the most feared thing is that there are traitors in the gang, a few years ago, my father-in-law was framed, and he was forced out of the gang to hide for three years before he cleared his innocence. ”

Qi Fan also heard Nian Yongshou talk about this, and when he mentioned it at this moment, it was somewhat similar to the situation of the beggar gang at the moment, and he nodded again and again: "That's right." ”

Lin Jianlan sighed and said: "Alas, it's not a secret, my father-in-law has been investigating a past incident more than ten years ago, and I think that I am afraid that only a big gang with disciples all over the world like the Beggar Gang can be trusted, so he once entrusted the old gang leader to investigate." When this Lei Kan went to the gang, he also said that there was some clue, who knew that the old gang leader was killed when he left the gang, and the younger generation was not talented, and I always felt that this matter was probably related to my father-in-law's past. Fang Cai said to Elder Tang that he wanted to go to Chang'an to pay tribute together, and by the way, he would cooperate with your gang to explore the truth, who ......knows, "Speaking of this, he looked back for a moment, and saw that Tang Zimu looked quite uncomfortable not far away, but he couldn't stop himself from speaking, he smiled secretly in his heart, and then turned around and just made another look of annoyance, and said nothing to Qi Fan.

Qi Fan saw him looking at Elder Tang's side, and he stopped talking, but immediately understood, patted Lin Jianlan on the shoulder and said, "This time, you just go with us, everything is wrapped up in me, and I will explain it to Elder Tang." ”

Lin Jianlan said: "Thank you Elder Qi, alas, but if it causes disagreement among several elders......

Qi Fan frowned, and said: "You don't need to worry about this, no matter what, it is a good intention of your gang to go to pay respects, and besides, we will immediately summon our fellow martial artists when we return to the helm, and there will be no shortage of people who will go to worship at that time." ”

Lin Jianlan hurriedly said, "Thank you so much Elder Qi!" After that, he walked to the side of the stretcher, leaned over and squeezed Lei Kan's hand.

Lei Kan lost too much blood, his brain was already a little dizzy, and when he saw Lin Jianlan smiling at himself in the moonlight, he didn't know why he had an inexplicable trust in this young man, so he slightly loosened the knot between his eyebrows and fell asleep.

Lin Jianlan exhaled lightly, and listened to Tang Zimu say softly: "Does Lin Gongzi have to go to Chang'an?"

Although Lin Jianlan listened to his voice softly, it was very cold, although he didn't know martial arts, he had an unknown pressure, and he didn't know when he walked behind him. Lin Jianlan didn't turn around, just looked at Lei Kan and said, "Could it be that Chang'an has something inconvenient for me to see, so Brother Tang doesn't want me to go?"

Tang Zimu laughed softly and said: "What is the good of traveling on a long road, what is the good of running around and working hard, Lin Gongzi's martial arts practitioners naturally don't care, you are a beggar gang VIP, if you want to go, you will obey it." After saying that, Shi Shiran paced away, and said in front of Diao Beidou: "Since Lei Kan has been captured, it is not appropriate to stay in the rudder for a long time, Elder Qi and I will take some disciples to escort him back to Chang'an in the starry night, and then we will arrange to post a notice to the fellow Taoists in the rivers and lakes." He whispered in Diao Beidou's ear for a while, only to see Diao Beidou's face showing admiration, and then looked back in the direction of Luoyang City, nodded again and again, and turned away.

Lin Jianlan said in his heart: "This Elder Diao seems to be very honest, he admires Tang Zimu very much, and he also obeys all his arrangements. ”

After Tang Zimu confessed, Fang came over and said to Lin Jianlan: "Lin Gongzi, let's go." After saying that, he whistled into the distance, and a beggar disciple rushed over, holding the horse that Lin Jianlan was riding, and on the back of the horse was hung the belongings that he and Lei Kan had stored in the room of the inn, and there was also the long staff that Lei Kan rarely left his hand.

Lin Jianlan was extremely surprised, and said in his heart: "It seems that he had already expected that I would definitely go with him, so he ordered someone to bring me and Lei Kan's belongings in advance, why did he say those words to stop me?" ”

The three of them each led their horses and jumped up, and the four disciples carried the stretcher and walked out of the mountain pass, seeing that there was already a carriage parked on the side of the road, but next to it was Diao Beidou, who had just left, presumably this was what he prepared by listening to Tang Zimu's arrangement.

The two of them immediately jumped out of the car and picked up Lei Kan, helped him into the car, and immediately sat down at the door again, Lin Jianlan saw that they all had blades pinned to their waists, although they didn't see a few bells, but they were not low in terms of skills, obviously afraid that Lei Kan would escape halfway.

Tang Zimu didn't get off the horse, bowed his hand and said: "Our beggar gang shouldn't be so luxurious, we have lost our poor brother's true character, but escorting Lei Kan is not trivial, it is not appropriate to delay more on the road, this is expedient, and the responsibility is borne by me alone." After avenging the old gang leader, I will accept the guilt. ”
