Chapter Eighty-Four: A Night Visit to an Island

Ye Shuying rowed slowly, in order to avoid alarming the people of the Nanchao Gang, there was neither a fire nor a light on the boat, and it was dark all around, but the fog in the lake was getting thicker and thicker. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Finally lucky, more than half an hour later, Ye Shuying faintly saw a faint light and shadow moving in the fog, looking at the situation, it was like the lights on the ship.

Ye Shuying said excitedly: "Brother Chu, look over there." ”

Chu Sanjiang looked in the direction of Ye Shuying's gaze, and sure enough, he saw the outline of a big ship moving in the direction of the center of the lake. Chu Sanjiang was overjoyed and said, "Slide over there." ”

Ye Shuying suddenly got up and stood motionless at the bow of the boat, and said, "The east wind is sending you off, so why do you need to do it again." I'm just afraid that in a moment this little boat will crash into the big ship on its own. ”

Chu Sanjiang had also felt that the night wind was pushing the small boat in the direction of the big boat, and there was no need to row at all, so he smiled and said, "It seems that our luck is really good." ”

Ye Shuying didn't dare to let the small wooden boat get too close to the big ship, so he controlled the speed and direction of the boat at the right time, and followed closely at a distance of more than 20 zhang from the stern of the big boat. After all, the lights on the big ship were brilliant, although the outline was hazy in the thick fog, but it was not lost, and there were no lights on the small boat, and the people of the Nanchao Gang on the big ship were difficult to notice even if they were extremely cautious.

Ye Shuying only felt wonderful, and followed the big ship of the Nanchao Gang for nearly an hour, only to see that the big ship was catching up with a light, and then slowly stopped in front, it should have arrived at the dock on the island to prepare to dock.

Ye Shuying naturally couldn't follow anymore, so she immediately turned around and rowed the boat half a mile away from the pier before slowly landing on the shore.

After the two of them landed on the shore, they quickly ran to the dock where the big ship had just docked. When I arrived near the pier, I found that the lights on the original ship had been completely extinguished, and there were no lights on the pier, and the few boats parked on the pier were empty, and it was pitch black all around.

Ye Shuying sighed: "It's such a fast movement, but after only a moment, everyone is gone." ”

Chu Sanjiang said: "It may be that there is something urgent." Brother Ye, although we have landed on Mushan Island, we are not familiar with the terrain on the island, so it is better to act separately, first find the main rudder of the Nanchao Gang, and find out the truth before we start. ”

Ye Shuying said: "Okay, let's meet in an hour at the place where we just landed." ”

The two agreed and broke up. Ye Shuying walked along the mountain and forest path for a while, only to see that there was also a cloud of fog all around, the night breeze was blowing, and it was difficult to distinguish the direction, so he performed light skills, and soon passed through the jungle and saw several courtyards, but they were all huts and cottages, not like any important places.

Ye Shuying ran along a path near these courtyards for a while, only to see a large mansion, not small in scale, magnificent, the buildings in the courtyard are tall, the lights are bright, and one of the halls is magnificent and tall, and the grandeur is magnificent, but it is like the main rudder of the Nanchao Gang.

Ye Shuying didn't have time to think about it, tiptoed the ground, climbed over the high wall, hid himself behind a big tree, and saw that there was no one moving around in the courtyard, and there was no one guarding the door of the main hall, so he quietly approached, stood outside a window, and looked inside through the window.

It was early summer, the weather was getting hotter, and most of the windows were open, so you could see it clearly from the outside in. Ye Shuying only saw more than ten people sitting in the hall in the hall, but the chair at the head was empty, but there was a red-faced elder sitting at the bottom, about fifty years old, carrying a hundred refining black gold folding iron knife, and his appearance was still dignified, it was Cui Zhenyuan, the deputy leader of the Nanchao Gang.

Ye Shuying didn't know him, but he could guess the identity of this person. Looking down further, I found that He Xiaofeng, the "Crazy Lan Knife", was also in the crowd, and as for the others, Ye Shuying didn't know any of them.

He Xiaofeng is only twenty-four or five years old, his face is thin, his face is white, and he has a dragon sparrow big ring knife inserted in his waist, and the person who looks at him is as weak as his name, but his heart can be described as vicious, and his knife skills are also known for being fast and ruthless.

I only heard that Cui Zhenyuan got up and said: "Okay, I also said what should be said, everyone should go their separate ways, you should pay more attention to the lake these days, and the island should also be strictly guarded, disperse." ”

Everyone stood up and said, "Yes, deputy helper." He slowly retreated, only the "Raglan Knife" He Xiaofeng and a medium-sized yellow-robed old man with a goatee in his sixties did not leave.

Ye Shuying said in her heart: "It seems that the red-faced one is indeed Cui Zhenyuan." He moved away from the crowd and waited until they were out of the courtyard before returning to the window and continuing to see what was going on.

At this time, Cui Zhenyuan said: "Xiaofeng, how are things going in Chuzhou?"

He Xiaofeng said: "The child personally went over there to find out the situation, and sure enough, someone was secretly making trouble, but the child has already dealt with it, Uncle Cui, please rest assured." ”

Cui Zhenyuan said: "You do things, your father-in-law and I have always been at ease. You just came back from Chuzhou, and you should have let you have a good rest, but something happened to the gang......"

He Xiaofeng walked up to Cui Zhenyuan and said, "Uncle Cui, I also heard from my subordinates about the assassination of my father-in-law on the boat just now, I don't know how my father-in-law is injured?"

Cui Zhenyuan sighed and said, "It's very seriously injured, I haven't suffered such a serious injury for more than ten years." ”

He Xiaofeng said: "I don't know who injured my father-in-law, was it an internal injury to the palm of the fist or an external injury to the sword?"

Cui Zhenyuan said: "I was injured by the power of the palm, the assassin was masked, and my eldest brother and I didn't see his true face." ”

He Xiaofeng seemed a little surprised, and said, "I was injured by the palm force, this is ...... My father-in-law's 'Absolute Palm' has been practiced to the point where he has perfected his life, who can hurt his old man with the power of his palm? Except for the ...... of the Zheng family in Liuhe Town, on the south bank of the Yangtze River."

Cui Zhenyuan suddenly slapped his palm on the handle of the chair and shouted angrily: "Shut up! Before this matter passes, I don't want to hear anything related to the Zheng family in Liuhe Town." Let's go down. ”

He Xiaofeng trembled, and hurriedly said, "Yes, I know." Uncle Cui, I just came back, and I haven't visited my father-in-law's injuries yet, I heard that my father-in-law has moved to the summer manor to recuperate, I wonder if I can go and see my father-in-law?"

Cui Zhenyuan said: "Of course you can, this is as it should be, but you can only visit for a while, and you can't stay longer." Hua Ran, take Xiaofeng to visit his eldest brother. ”

The old man in the yellow robe with the goat's beard said, "Yes, deputy gang leader." He lit a lantern, turned to He Xiaofeng and said, "Young Master, please come with me." ”

He Xiaofeng bowed his hand to Cui Zhenyuan and said, "Uncle Cui, I'll go first." Then he followed Hua Ran.

Ye Shuying watched the two of them go out of the courtyard, and said in her heart: "This Cui Zhenyuan is so taboo to talk about the Zheng family, could it be that the Zheng family was really killed by him and Gu Tianhua? He followed behind Hua Ran and He Xiaofeng.

If it weren't for hearing the words of the captain on that painting boat, Ye Shuying would have directly broken in to assassinate Cui Zhenyuan and avenge the Zheng family. Now you have to be patient and inquire before you start.

Hua Ran and He Xiaofeng walked more than a mile, and when they arrived at a high-walled courtyard on a hillside, they knocked on the door of the courtyard.

Ye Shuying hid in a tree outside the house, and saw a plaque on the door with four big characters written on the door through the lantern hanging at the gate of the courtyard, which was "Summer Manor". Ye Shuying carefully inspected the scene in the courtyard, and saw that there were seven or eight houses in the garden, and each room was full of light.

At this time, the door of a room in the east was opened from the inside, and a woman in her thirties with heavy makeup and gorgeous makeup walked out and opened the door for Hua Ran and He Xiaofeng.

Hua Ran saw the woman, bowed down and said, "Madam, I brought Xiaofeng Gongzi to visit the helper." ”

The woman smiled faintly and said, "Come in." ”

The two entered the manor, Hua Ran bolted the door, and followed the woman into the east house.

Ye Shuying said in her heart: "I'm still waiting for He Xiaofeng to come out, that Hua Ran seems to be the confidant of the 'Second Elder of Mushan', I must know the truth, I might as well catch him and ask." ”

After a while, seeing He Xiaofeng and Hua Ran walking out side by side, Ye Shuying retreated to the jungle by the side of the road, and waited for them to pass near the hiding place and walked farther before silently following again.

The two of them separated after walking a short distance, Ye Shuying's heart was happy, so he stared at Hua Ran, and followed for a while, and when He Xiaofeng was too far away to hear the movement here, he quickly followed Hua Ran, kicked a small pebble under his feet, and the stone flew out and passed through the lantern.

That Hua Ran only heard a "whew" and the candle flame in the lantern went out, and at the same time, he noticed something strange behind him, and shouted: "What person?" He only said three words, and his body quickly jumped to Ye Shuying's side, his arms swayed, whirring in the wind, and slammed palm after palm on Ye Shuying's body.

In the dark, Ye Shuying only dodged left and right, and suddenly his right hand quickly poked out, and he clicked on several big points such as Tianzong and Du Yu on Hua Ran's back. Hua Ran only felt sore, numb and stiff, so she fell down and lay on the ground unable to move.

Ye Shuying flipped him over and said, "Don't shout, otherwise I'll kill you." I don't mean anything but a few things I want to ask you for. ”

Although Hua Ran faced Ye Shuying's face, but the sky was too dark to see his face clearly, when he heard Ye Shuying's voice, he knew that he was not very old, so he scolded: "Where did you come from, the wild boy dared to sneak attack secretly, and there was a kind of unlocking the old man's acupoint, seeing that I didn't pull your tendons and pick your skin ......."

Ye Shuying sat down beside him, tugged at his goatee, and said, "Are you unreasonable, I attacked you secretly?" Obviously, you made the first move, and I don't talk nonsense with you, you just have to answer honestly when I ask you, otherwise you will be good-looking." Listen, did your gang leader Gu Tianhua really be assassinated, and how did he get hurt?"

Hua Ran was slightly stunned and said, "Who are you kid? Why do you ask?"

Ye Shuying was very close to Hua Ran, and his night vision was good, although the night was dark, he could see the slight change in his expression. Ye Shuying said: "You just answer my questions honestly, don't be verbose about the rest, otherwise believe it or not, I will kill you?"

Hua Ran looked frightened and said, "The old man was planted in the hands of your kid today, and I am unlucky." Our gang leader was indeed seriously injured last night after being plotted against by someone?"

Ye Shuying asked, "Where was someone plotted against you, and who was seriously injured?"

Hua Ran said: "Of course it's in his bedroom, as for the assassin, even our gang leader hasn't seen his face, and we haven't found out who it is for the time being." ”

Ye Shuying said: "Is it really in his bedroom? Have you seen him injured with your own eyes?"

Hua Ran said: "This ...... Since it happened in the gang leader's bedroom, I naturally didn't see it with my own eyes, and when we arrived, the assassin had already fled. ”

Ye Shuying's eyes rolled when he saw him speak, and said: "You seem to be very dishonest, you must be lying, it seems that if you want to hear the truth, you have to use some means." After saying that, he smiled, and his appearance was very sinister.
