Zhao Ziming buried his third uncle next to his parents' tomb, dressed in linen and filial piety, and sat here quietly for seven days and seven nights, without drinking, eating, or speaking.

Seven days later, he rested for a while, left three hundred taels of silver and some prepared medicines for Liu Guixiang, carried a heavy knife, let Qi Hu lead the way, and went straight to Nanshanzhai.

It is said that at this time, the Nanshan cottage is full of lights, people come and go, and it is not lively. Today is the 70th birthday of the owner of the village, and all the black and white characters who can come are here, and there are even a few lords of the government.

In the hall used to entertain guests, it was full, and at the top of the list was an old man with a ruddy face and strong spirits, looking at his appearance, he was the great elder of the Lone Wolf Gang, Long Yan!

It turned out that this Long Yan had three sons and one daughter, the eldest son died early, leaving only one son, which was Long Xiuqi, his second son was Long Ba, and the third son was Long Hanqin, as for that daughter, it was naturally Long Liying.

The family had a big conflict many years ago for various reasons, and Long Ba was angry and took his sister away from home and came here to occupy the mountain as the king, and Long Yan joined the Lone Wolf Gang with Long Hanqin and his grandson Long Xiuqi.

It was not until recent years that Long Yan became older, many things were opened, and Long Ba also entered middle age, no longer reckless, and the family members who were divided into two groups began to contact each other, and the relationship gradually warmed up.

And Long Yan has suffered great changes in the Lone Wolf Gang, and he is tired of life in the rivers and lakes, and he just wants to retire and retire. It happened that Long Ba proposed to celebrate his birthday, so he left a note for Mu Zijing to express his intentions, and he didn't tell anyone else in the gang, so he brought his son and grandson to Nanshanzhai together.

Not long after he came here, the Li family mobilized many sects to destroy the Lone Wolf Gang, and he invisibly escaped a catastrophe, which is not unlucky.

As soon as the auspicious time arrived, the birthday banquet began, first the children and grandchildren kowtowed to tea one by one, and then all the guests bowed together to congratulate, Long Yan smiled and thanked him.

After the ceremony was opened, the wine was brought to the altar, and the delicacies were served on the plates, and when everyone was eating and drinking, a person suddenly ran into the hall, panting, and ran to Long Ba's side and whispered a few words.

After hearing this, Long Ba's eyes narrowed slightly, he raised his head and drank the wine in the cup, and said: "If he dares to come, I will let him come and go, what about the ninth-layer master? ”

Long Liying, who was sitting at the same table, looked worried, "Big brother, is that evil seed here?"

Qi Hu's letter yesterday made everything that happened in Zhaojiazhuang clear.

Based on the facts, coupled with a strong intuition, she was sure that the young master named Qianming was Zhao Wuyuan's son. Thinking that the evil seed who should have died in the wolf tide not only did not die, but also practiced an unfathomable martial arts, she couldn't help but be shocked, scared, and regretful.

Long Ba knew what she was thinking, and said comfortingly: "Sister don't worry, don't you still believe in the eldest brother? ”

Zhao Wugang, who was beside Long Liying, only lowered his head and drank at the moment, cup after glass, and his face turned slightly pale. Somehow, there was a strong sense of unease in his heart, just as he had ended his eldest brother's life with his own hands.

The terrain of Nanshan is high and dangerous, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, there is only one sheep intestine trail feasible. After the dragon dominates the village, ten more checkpoints are added on this trail, each checkpoint builds a gate and a bunker, and there are archers responsible for defense, ordinary people do not have permission, and there is no possibility of going up the mountain.

Zhao Ziming stood in front of the first checkpoint, dressed in filial piety clothes, with a calm face, as if he didn't see the cold and shining arrows in the bunkers on both sides and on the gatehouse.

He glanced at Qi Hu and said, "Brother Qi, they can't stop me, I don't want to kill innocents indiscriminately, next, you can do it yourself." ”

Qi Hu understood that Zhao Ziming already knew about his report, or that this was deliberately done by the other party, and this sentence was undoubtedly a warning to him.

He clenched his fists and said: "Brother Qian, loyalty and righteousness are difficult to achieve, Qi is under the people, I have no choice, please forgive me, but a few days ago, thanks to your life-saving grace, Qi wants to advise Brother Qian, the road ahead is dangerous, and I hope to think twice." ”

Zhao Ziming smiled faintly and said, "Thank you Brother Qi for reminding me." As the words fell, he moved, like a bolt of lightning, and went straight to the gatehouse.

In the blink of an eye, he was close to the gatehouse, he raised the heavy knife in his hand, touched the ground with his toes, and his body rose in the air, spun in a circle, and slashed out obliquely. I saw the copper-clad hardwood gate slam and crack into countless fragments and shoot out.

He didn't stop, he used the footwork of Youtian, and instantly disappeared like a wisp of smoke, dumbfounded the guards in the bunker and on the gatehouse, and when he reacted and wanted to release the arrow, how could there be his shadow?

Seeing this scene, Qi Hu gasped, and faintly felt in his heart that today's Nanshan Cottage was about to turn the sky upside down.

He couldn't help but recall what Zhao Ziming had said before, his face changed for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "The owner of the village, the second master, Qi has served you for many years, and he is worthy of you. ”

He did not go to the birthday banquet, but secretly returned to his residence, wrapped the gold and silver he had accumulated for many years into a soft package and tied it to his body, and then went down the mountain on the pretext of hosting the village, and has not been seen since.

Besides, Zhao Ziming, with a heavy knife, with lightning speed, broke nine doors in a row, and no one could stop him, until the last level, he abandoned the knife, and slammed into the gate with a heavy knife!

The gate was torn apart, and the young man went up to the top of the mountain, looked at the hall with carved beams and paintings in front of him, and shouted: "Long Ba, Long Liying, Zhao Wugang, come out and die!"

This shout, really like the thunder of the nine heavens, rolling and exploding on the mountain, the guests inside and outside the hall, whether they have martial arts or not, cultivation geometry, all feel frightened, the hustle and bustle of the sound stopped, only the piercing sound of cups and dishes falling to the ground and breaking continued.

A group of guards who wanted to come forward to question were so close that they were frightened, and they threw away their weapons one after another, and ran away as if they were flying.

In the hall, Long Yan, who was on the first seat, looked at Long Ba, frowned and asked, "Ba'er, what's going on?" But Long Ba never told his father about Zhao Ziming.

Long Ba was shocked that Zhao Ziming came so quickly, but his face was very calm, and said: "Some small things, father doesn't have to worry about it, the child will handle it." ”

He got up and shook his head, and said in a loud voice: "There are evil guests coming outside, are you interested in going with me to have a look?" After speaking, he walked out of the main hall first, followed by Long Yan, Zhao Wugang and his wife.

The most important thing in the world is to watch the lively people, although the guests in the main hall were shocked by the previous cheers, now they have recovered, and they all walked outside the hall with curiosity on their faces, talking and laughing.

Long Ba walked through the seat under the steps, stood seven feet away from Zhao Ziming, and said: "Who is Your Excellency? ”

When everyone saw that Zhao Ziming was wearing filial piety clothes, they immediately exploded.

"Who is this man, and why is he so ignorant of etiquette?"

"Are you here for revenge?"

"Seeing that he is young, he must not be high in martial arts, and he has offended the master of Longzhai, so I am afraid that my life will not be able to be saved today. ”

......

Zhao Ziming finally saw the enemy, how could he care about the words of others, the heavy knife in his right hand was slowly raised, pointed at Long Ba, and said: "Zhao Jiazhuang Zhao Ziming, fourteen years ago, you killed my grandfather and injured my father, today, I came to collect debts." ”

Before Long Ba could speak, Long Yan had already walked up to him and said to Zhao Ziming: "Deacon Qianming, is it you?

He had seen Zhao Ziming suppress Wei Peizhi, and he was worried that his son might not be his opponent, so he asked for good words in order to be good.

Zhao Ziming was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Long Yan to be Long Ba's father, his eyes immediately swept behind him, and sure enough, he saw Long Hanqin again.

He was silent for a moment and said, "Great Elder, I have a deep blood vendetta, and I have to take revenge and offend. ”

Long Ba said angrily: "Dad, Huangkou Xiao'er doesn't know how to lift, wait until his son captures him!" took off the mountain axe on his waist and rushed straight towards Zhao Ziming.

His mountain-opening axe, weighing two hundred catties, is a terrible weapon, in the surrounding counties, famous, with this axe, the dragon can rival two masters of the same level.

The onlookers saw that he had used his weapon, and they were even more interested, and they clapped their hands and applauded, as if he had won, and Zhao Ziming had become a corpse.

In the crowd, Zhao Zishuang and Zhao Zijun, two brothers and sisters, saw that the person who made trouble was their sworn brother Qianming, they were really happy and worried, happy that they met their eldest brother so soon, and worried that the eldest brother had a grudge against his parents and uncle.

Seeing that the eldest brother and uncle were fighting, the brother and sister no longer hesitated, so they wanted to come forward to persuade them. At this moment, the palms of the two hands pressed on the shoulders of the two of them, making them unable to move.

Zhao Zishuang hurriedly said: "Mother! He is the eldest brother of me and my younger brother! You let me go! I will persuade them not to fight!" Zhao Zijun also begged urgently.

Long Liying's face sank, "What do you know! The affairs of the adult world, before you can get involved, go back to the house and stay!" turned her head to Zhao Wugang who came with her and said, "Wugang, you take them to the room, don't let them come out." ”

Zhao Wugang responded, holding one of his children's hands with both hands, and glanced at Zhao Ziming and Long Ba, who were fighting, and stopped talking.

Long Liying only said that he was worried about his eldest brother, and said softly: "Don't worry, the eldest brother will not be defeated." ”

Zhao Wugang nodded absentmindedly, pulled his children out of the table, returned to his residence, bolted the door, walked to the table and sat down, without saying a word, just pouring tea cup after cup, his face was frighteningly white.
