In the small courtyard of the cottage, Li Ye asked Liu Zhiyan to loosen the tie, and when Shangguan Allure brought tea, Li Ye poured a bowl and handed it to Liu Zhiyan.

She glanced at Li Ye in confusion and confusion, and finally made sure that the bowl of water was indeed handed to her, and hurriedly took it with both hands: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

"Little elixir. Li Ye motioned to Shangguan Chengcheng, who took out a pill and handed it to Li Ye, who handed it to Liu Zhiyan, "You are not lightly injured, this pill can relieve your injury." ”

Liu Zhiyan was holding the bowl and drinking water, she almost squirted out when she heard the words, she reacted a little too much, she was choked by the water, her face was red, her ears were red, she kept coughing, she was in a hurry for a while, and she was extremely embarrassed.

It's no wonder that she is flustered, although the little elixir is not a precious elixir, it is also relatively speaking, Liu Zhiyan, who lives by freight in Weishui, has not seen a few decent magic weapons, let alone the elixir, the entire Changhe Gang, and now it is just her and the ugly husband and two monks.

Liu Zhiyan hurriedly bowed: "The little woman has not made an inch of merit, how dare she accept the reward of His Royal Highness?"

Li Ye popped out the pill with his fingers, Liu Zhiyan hurriedly caught it, and he said: "Since you have decided to take refuge in me, I will not treat you as an outsider, and tell me about the situation of the Changhe Gang." ”

Liu Zhiyan took the pill, naturally it was not easy to return it, it would be too uninteresting, she glanced at Li Ye, and hurriedly lowered her head, this noble prince of the clan would personally pour water for him and give him the pill, which greatly surprised Liu Zhiyan's expectations.

"I made a move on him last night, doesn't he hate me?" Liu Zhiyan asked herself, she wanted to stare at Li Ye for a while, look carefully, so that she could know what Li Ye's plan was, but she couldn't, that would be too rude.

"The Weishui River Gang is twenty-four, and the Changhe Gang was originally ranked in the middle of the river, with more than 100 gangs, more than 20 monks, and three qi practitioners. 's father is the number one master of the Changhe Gang, and after being plotted by the Black Jiao Gang, the strength of the Changhe Gang has been weakened a lot. ”

Liu Zhiyan clasped her hands together and pressed the little elixir in the palm of her hand, when she said these words, her voice was not excited, but it was inevitably a little sentimental.

She continued: "The Weishui River Gang relied on Weishui freight to survive, and when the world was peaceful, it was originally just a loose force, and it was also gathered by villagers from all over the country. In recent years, the government's pressure on cargo ships has become deeper and deeper, and excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes have made it difficult for many river gangs to survive. ”

Liu Zhiyan raised his head and secretly glanced at Li Ye, and saw that he always looked as usual, so he continued: "Many river gangs began to wag their tails and beg for mercy from the government and became the government's greedy minions, while some river gangs followed the example of bandits and plundered other family's cargo ships from time to time, and some river gangs relied on their great power to row down a section of the river and collect tolls...... The situation was chaotic, and the River Gang was also in chaos, and many Qi cultivators saw that some of the River Gang were making a lot of profits, so they joined in, so there was a big gang...... The struggle of various interests is also more bloody. ”

Li Ye was silent, the so-called troubled times are coming, it is by no means an empty word, the consequences of the darkness of the government are that corruption and perversion of the law are rampant, bandits are frequent in various places, and the officialdom only cares about fighting for power and profit, and the people have become the biggest victims.

As far as the Weishui River Gang is concerned, the original Taiping order has been broken, and the laws of the imperial court have become a dead letter. In this case, you can imagine how much oppression and bullying, how many grievances and helplessness, how many families are ruined, and every money can be described as bloody.

Li Ye looked at Liu Zhiyan, a woman in the rivers and lakes, with a restrained and introverted temperament. She restrains her emotions and her behavior, so her every move is very small, and she seems cautious, for fear of upsetting people, much like a small snail.

Li Ye pondered, if the order of the Weishui River Gang can be rectified, will it have the effect of buying people's hearts, and can it gather the luck of those people at that time?

But for now, it's a bit far away.

When Li Ye and Liu Zhiyan were talking, Wang Li came over to report that someone had asked to see him.

Li Ye came to the courtyard gate, looked to the left-hand side, and saw two people stopped by the officials not far away.

A tall, muscular man with a boy who was not yet ten years old. Both of them were dark, darker than the average farmer, especially the boy, who was as black as a piece of coal.

Song Jiao hugged her arms against the door frame, propped up the beautiful scenery in front of her chest, and snorted coldly in Li Ye's ear: "Liu Dazheng, why is he here?"

But then she thought of something, and she was relieved.

Li Ye saw Liu Dazheng and had the same problem as Song Jiao.

Li Xian's cronies, Li Ye has seen them, Song Jiao is mostly active in the rivers and lakes because of her secret errands, and she basically doesn't go to Anwangfu when she arrives in Chang'an, so she doesn't see Li Ye much, Liu Dazheng is Li Xian's guard, but Li Ye is very familiar.

However, after the Battle of Bagong Mountain, Liu Dazheng never came back, and he didn't expect to appear again today, with a boy by his side.

Li Ye asked Liu Dazheng to be released and met in front of the door.

"The grass people have seen His Highness. Liu Dazheng took the boy to greet him.

"General Liu, don't come to harm?" Li Ye gave up, Liu Dazheng was the commander of Li Xian's personal army in the past, that is, the chief general of the eight hundred armor soldiers of the palace.

At this time, a group of people appeared on the east side of the village, standing under an old tree, looking at the village from afar.

There are not many people, only four. The leader is a young man, who is very angry, and it is Li Keyong. Beside him, followed a monk dressed in a robe and holding a wand. This monk gave birth to a good skin, with a face like a crown of jade, thick eyebrows and big eyes, but his lips are very red, and his skin is smooth.

"The person I'm looking for is in this village. Lick looked at the cottage with his negative hand.

"What do you want?" the monk asked.

"I want him dead. Li Ke said lightly.

"As the donor wishes. "The monk folded his hands and was about to leave.

"Master Huiming, please slow down. Li Keyong suddenly stopped him.

Monk Huiming stopped: "The donor has changed his mind?"

"Of course I decided not to be more deserved. Li Keyong said, "It's just that there are twenty officials in this village, so let's just go in?"

"If you can't come and go freely, how can the incorruptible envoy let the poor monk follow the benefactor to Chang'an?" Huiming was always kind and pleasant, and his tone was not sharp, but what he said had the ability to infect people's hearts, and people couldn't help but believe it.

Li Ke said with a smile from an old man behind him: "Master Huiming is the first monk of Yinshan Juexiao Temple, and he is only one step away from cultivating to the Shakti Realm. ”

Li Ke said in a deep voice: "What I want is to leave no traces and not be noticed by the world!"

Hui Ming smiled and said, "What's so difficult about this?"

As he spoke, Hui Ming waved his hand to the cottage, and a golden light sprinkled on the cottage, and he stood in front of him with one hand in his hand, silently chanting a spell. The golden light that reached the sky above the cottage formed a curtain of light at a speed visible to the naked eye, enveloping the entire cottage.

"One flower, one world, one leaf, one Bodhi. After reciting the incantation, Hui Ming flicked his fingers, and from his fingertips, a flower and a leaf flew out one after another, and the flowers and leaves fell into the light curtain, and the golden light curtain rippled for a while, and then disappeared in a flicker, and what appeared in front of everyone's eyes was a quiet and peaceful village, and there were people coming and going in it, which seemed to be orderly and a small world of its own.

Li Keyong used the old man behind him, seeing this scene, he couldn't help but exclaim: "The flower and leaf enchantment of Shimen is really extraordinary, I am waiting for today's eye-opening!"

Huiming didn't care, but just made a gesture of invitation to Li Keyong: "Even the village is turned upside down, and the people outside can't notice it." Donor, please. ”

Li Keyong nodded, and walked into the enchantment with his hands in his hands.

In the small courtyard of the cottage, Li Ye was greeting Liu Dazheng for a few words, and suddenly everyone's eyes changed and looked up.

The golden light that enveloped the entire village was seen by everyone, until a golden flower and a golden leaf flew one after another and disappeared into the air, and everyone retracted their gaze.

Song Jiao was still leaning in front of the courtyard gate, she didn't make any moves, and she didn't even put down her arms, she just sneered: "Shimen Flower and Leaf Enchantment, it seems that a master is coming." ”

Wang Li's face changed, and his eyes were full of jealousy: "Shimen Flower and Leaf Enchantment? That's not an ordinary method, and the cultivation of people is superb!"

He hurriedly bowed his hand to Li Ye: "Shaoyin, please leave quickly, and the lower officials will lead the officials to break off the queen for Shaoyin!"

Li Ye smiled: "There are guests visiting, how can there be a reason to avoid it?"

Liu Dazheng stood up and hugged his fist at Li Ye: "Liu Dazheng is willing to protect His Royal Highness!"

Li Ye nodded, he also wanted to see what level Liu Dazheng's cultivation had reached, and who was stronger than Song Jiao.

The boy pulled Liu Dazheng's sleeve, looked up and asked uneasily, "Liu Dazheng...... They said that was a master, and you ...... Are you a master too?"

The boy still can't imagine what kind of strength this big man who adopted him a few years ago, maybe the boy doesn't know what strength is, after all, in the years when the two were together, the boy has never seen Liu Dazheng, showing any extraordinary ability, all day long is to strike iron, after striking iron is smoking, in addition, only occasionally take the boy to the river to fish...... Liu Dazheng has the ability to touch the fish, and the boy is still convinced, which is called a touch and a quasi.

As for the fight between Liu Dazheng and the Taoist this morning, the boy didn't see anything at all, and the eaves he imagined didn't happen, Liu Dazheng and the Taoist just confronted each other for a long time, and then the Taoist took out his sword, Liu Dazheng punched, and then ...... The house collapsed, and the boy ran away with his head in his head...... The boy didn't know that even if he didn't dodge, the flying broken logs wouldn't hurt him.

Liu Dazheng touched the boy's head, and answered the boy's question in a gentle voice: "Almost a master." ”

The boy's face suddenly fell, and in his understanding, the words "almost" and "count" obviously had no power.

Liu Dazheng came to the gate of the courtyard and was in front of Song Jiao.

Song Jiao glanced at him: "Where's your knife?"

"Knives? Liu Dazheng pulled out a handful from his waist...... kitchen knife, and then stepped out of the courtyard door.
