Chapter 15: Peach Blossom Wanted
The two of them fled and left Jiangnan County, choosing a small road to hurry. Along the way, Chu Sihai couldn't stop laughing, Li Qingshan ignored him with a straight face and kept silent.
Chu Sihai has always known that Li Qingshan is persistent, and it is difficult to change what he believes, so he does not deliberately tease and please him.
The two disliked each other, stumbled for several days, and finally left Jiangnan County and entered Peach Blossom County. Neither of them mentioned the matter of Wuli County in Jiangnan County, but Li Qingshan still kept silent and ignored Chu Sihai. Chu Sihai was panicked, so he curried favor with Li Qingshan, coerced and lured, but it didn't work.
The fame of Peach Blossom County in Dongzhou is no less than that of Jiangnan County, all because of the "Peach Blossom Academy" in Peach Blossom County. Taohua River in Taohua County, Taohuapu at the head of Taohua River, Taohuapu has the famous sentence of the ancestors of the Shangguan family "Fangchen Liri Taohuapu, bead curtain cui tent Phoenix Building". There is a Peach Blossom Academy in Taohuapu, and there is a famous poem by the poet of the ancient immortals, "Ask Yu what he means to live in Bishan, laugh and not answer." The peach blossoms are gone, and there is no heaven and earth and no world. It means that the Peach Blossom Academy is in the sky and not comparable to the world.
Peach Blossom Academy, one of the five major academies under the jurisdiction of Chongwen Palace. The five major colleges are Peach Blossom Academy, Langhuan Academy, Chongwen Academy, Wenchang Academy, and Carrier Academy. Each academy is the main literary and deputy military, both civil and military, with many protégés, and the people of the six counties of nine counties in Dongzhou are safe and happy.
As soon as the two entered the city, Chu Sihai vaguely sensed that something was wrong. With his old and spicy experience in the rivers and lakes, he always felt that someone was watching their whereabouts, and the Confucian scholars, scholars, painting sellers, storytellers, Jianghu people, and pawn vendors in the city all cast suspicious glances at them, but once they looked at each other, they were all dodging and dodging.
Chu Sihai is used to seeing strong winds and waves, but he is not panicked. Seeing that it was getting late, he took Li Qingshan to deliberately choose the largest inn in the city to stay. The inn is called "Yunlai Inn", which is triple inside and outside, and the pavilion is magnificent.
The innkeeper was an old man in his fifties, with a goatee, and when he saw Chu Sihai and Li Qingshan walking in, a trace of imperceptible weirdness flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled all over his face, and asked Chu Sihai and Li Qingshan: "Do the two guest officers want to make a fire or stay in the hotel?" The inn we brought here is the best inn in Peach Blossom County, and it is famous for its 'third-rate', which is first-class wine and food, first-class rooms, and first-class service. But please stay with peace of mind and be satisfied. ”
Chu Sihai said: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, arrange two adjacent first-class guest rooms, and be clean and quiet!" He said extremely loudly, as if he wanted to deliberately say it to others.
Li Qingshan also sensed that something was wrong, and let Chu Sihai arrange it.
The shopkeeper smiled: "Objectively, you can rest assured, our guest rooms here are absolutely clean and quiet. I took a look, and it just so happened that the No. 3 room and the No. 3 room were still there, so I will give it to the two of you!"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Li Qingshan fixedly, and said: "The small path is long immortal wind dao bones, I don't know where the immortal mountain is from?"
Before Li Qingshan could answer, Chu Sihai hurriedly said: "My family's little Taoist master Xianyun Wild Crane and Sihai Cultivation Dao are not from any famous mountains and grand views. There is a shopkeeper who asks. “
Li Qingshan calmed down beside him, smiled and nodded, and did not speak.
The shopkeeper grinned and said: "Okay, Xiaodao Chang has an outstanding temperament, and he is extraordinary at first glance, and he has the style of a fairy family." The rooms are already arranged, and you can stay with peace of mind!"
Li Qingshan and Chu Sihai carried their luggage upstairs and entered the room. After settling down, Li Qingshan sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes to cultivate. After a while, I heard a secret voice from Chu Sihai: "Boy, no matter what movement you see tonight, don't act rashly." You just need to meditate and cultivate, and I'll arrange the rest!"
Li Qingshan didn't know how to speak in secret words, and he didn't think about answering Chu Sihai, so he still continued to practice with his eyes closed.
At night, after dinner, Li Qingshan and Chu Sihai went back to their rooms to rest. Li Qingshan did not extinguish the candle, and lay flat on the bed with his clothes closed, naturally carrying the "Taixuan Tuna Method" and cultivating the Taixu Taixuangong. This Taixu Taixuan Gong is really a mysterious magic skill, if it is deliberately practiced to have an effect, it can also operate on its own if it is not intentionally practiced. Therefore, as soon as he lay down, the Taixu and Taixuan True Qi in his body ran up and down, and his whole body was indescribably comfortable, and his internal organs were warm.
At the third watch, he suddenly heard a noise on the roof, so he squinted at the roof, and saw a tile moving slowly, revealing a small gap. He remained silent and let the other party do it. Suddenly, Chu Sihai's secret voice came from his ears: "Boy, don't move, just continue to lie down and pretend to sleep." ”
It turned out that Chu Sihai had already noticed that there was someone in the room, so he used a secret voice to talk to Li Qingshan.
Li Qingshan knew that Chu Sihai had to deal with it, and he didn't have to worry about it at all, so he continued to close his eyes and cultivate.
The man on the roof prostrated for a moment, then got up and left.
Chu Sihai's secret words came again: "Boy, stay in the room well, don't go anywhere." I'll go out and see where the rats are doing. After speaking, only a soft sound was heard, and the person had chased out.
Chu Sihai followed the man silently, turned left and right, and came to a compound in the south of the city after a while.
The courtyard was brightly lit, and dozens of people from the rivers and lakes sat in the hall in order. He took a closer look, and found that although there were many people in it, they were all relatively young, and none of them knew each other, thinking that he had lived in seclusion for more than ten years, and there were many rising people in the rivers and lakes, or these people were just local small sect figures, not very famous, and it was not strange that he didn't know them.
The crowd sat upright in the hall, as if waiting for someone. Sure enough, as soon as the man who had sneaked back from the inn entered the house, everyone stood up. The middle-aged man in the first seat asked eagerly, "How is the situation, Brother Ruofeng?" It turned out that the name of the person who came back from the inn was "Ruofeng".
The man named Ruofeng replied: "Back to the master of Haomen, it has been clarified. The two of them did live in the Yunlai Inn in the east of the city, and they were exactly the same as what the shopkeeper Xu reported during the day. The two of them each live in one room, which are the No. 3 room and the No. 3 room of the Tianzi shop. The little Taoist priest lives in the No. 3 room of Tianzi, and the old man lives in the No. 3 room of Tianzi. ”
Another person asked, "Brother Ruofeng, you haven't been discovered and followed, are you?" It is said that the old man is extremely powerful in martial arts, at least reaching the eighth order. As soon as he finished speaking, everyone exclaimed. Obviously, the Eighth Order of Martial Arts was out of reach for their group of people, like a high mountain lying in front of them.
The man named Ruofeng sneered: "The Bear Gang Leader seems to be very trusting of me You Ruofeng?"
The leader of the bear gang sneered and said: "How dare you dare, Brother Ruofeng not only moves the world with his 'Ruofeng One Finger', but also has the ability to 'move quickly and quickly'. My old bear admires you from the bottom of my heart!"
You Ruofeng saw that the bear gang leader praised his two famous stunts in front of everyone, "one finger of the wind" and "smart and fast", he couldn't help but be proud and stopped talking.
The big man in the first seat groaned slightly, clenched his fists and said loudly: "Brothers, today the Divine Fist Sect, the Crazy Sword Sect, the Divine Sword Hall, the Wuliang Sect, the Nanshan Sect, the Southern Salt Gang, the Northern Salt Gang, the Jianghe Gang and many other heroes gathered here, all in response to the 'Peach Blossom Wanted' and came to arrest the little Taoist Li Qingshan. This Peach Blossom Wanted Notice has never been issued easily, and it has only been issued twice in the past ten years on the border between our Peach Blossom County and Jiangnan County. Seeing the Peach Blossom Order again this time, everyone must know that the matter is important, right?"
After speaking, he held out a black token, which was engraved with a golden peach blossom, and three lines of small seal text under the peach blossom, which read, "The peach blossom is scorching, bright as the sun." The peach blossom has an order, and those who hear it must do it. The deeds must be fruitful, and the rewards and punishments are clear".
The middle-aged man continued: "As soon as this peach blossom order comes out, the people in the rivers and lakes in the three counties of Jiangnan County, Peach Blossom County, and Liuyun County must listen to the order. Hao Youyi, the master of the younger brother Shenquan Gate, happened to have to be personally awarded this order by the master, so he posted a hero post and sincerely invited all heroes to come and do things together. If it doesn't work out, the rivers and lakes of the three counties will suffer, and if it can be done, the rivers and lakes of the three counties will be rewarded. Those who have the first merit can be in charge of the Peach Blossom Order for three years and a first-class martial art in the world, the second can also be tax-free for three years, and the rest of the meritorious ones can be tax-exempt for one year!"
When everyone listened, they were all in an uproar. To be in charge of the Peach Blossom Order for three years, it is equivalent to being able to command any Jianghu sect in the three counties of Jiangnan, Peach Blossom, and Liuyun at will within three years, and you can also get a first-class martial art, which will naturally increase your strength and become a first-class sect in the world at that time, and you can far get rid of many sects in the three counties. Even if it is second, being able to be tax-free for three years or one year is equivalent to making a huge fortune!
Hao Youyi continued: "Since I am temporarily in charge of this order, it is my duty to do so. Now that the little Taoist priest Li Qingshan has appeared in our Peach Blossom County, we can no longer let him escape from this county. The little Taoist priest is polite and polite, and he doesn't seem to know martial arts, but the old man next to him has extremely high martial arts, and no one of us is his opponent. I thought about it, and I had a few plans. The first is to set up an ambush on the river. No matter how powerful his martial arts are, he can't be as handsome as many heroes of our Southern Salt Gang, Northern Salt Gang, and Jianghe Gang who live in the water, right? Therefore, as soon as he crosses the Taohua Ferry tomorrow and enters the Taohua River, the Nanyan Gang, the Northern Salt Gang, and the Jianghe Gang will be able to act in the water, and the rest of our gangs will support them on the shore. Second, if we can't do anything in the water, we will set up an ambush in Baihuling, and each faction will send five masters, a total of dozens of masters to jointly besiege the old man. As the saying goes, one punch is hard to beat four hands, no matter how powerful his martial arts are, we have so many masters, even if we can't beat him, we can drag it out for a while. We dragged him down, and then You Ruofeng used "Agility and Agility" and "Ruofeng One Finger" to take the little Taoist priest directly, and then forced the old man to submit with the order of the little Taoist priest. ”
When everyone heard this, they clapped their hands and said: "Master Hao is really wise and brave, and he really deserves to hand over this peach blossom wanted warrant to you." It seems that the first credit will be yours after all!"
Hao Youyi saw that everyone agreed, and smiled, his eyes showing pride. Then, he discussed with everyone one by one the details of Jiangzhong's actions and the ambush in Baihuling, and even how to report to the boss after the arrest of the little Taoist, how to invite merit and share rewards.
Chu Sihai listened to them one by one, knew what to expect, and quietly returned to the inn.
