47 A sword breaks through the air
Everyone is a gambler, and under certain conditions, everyone will give it a go. The mediocre gambles on money and power, and the superior gambles on life and death.
The high-walled courtyard was empty, and there was not even a tree. Due to the height of the walls, it is impossible to see that there are houses in this house from the outside. There are two rows of houses on the left and right, each with at least twenty rooms. There are also three houses in the direction where Liu Yiyi came in. The three houses in the center look noticeably older than the two rows on the left and right.
As soon as Liu Yiyi carried Ye Jihan into the mansion, she saw a group of people standing in the empty courtyard, each holding a long sword and wearing a purple and blue robe. Liu Yiyi's heart was wide, and she could see that these Taoist priests were all from the Wudang faction. The Wudang faction has a strict hierarchy, and its status in the faction can be seen from the dress alone. The head of the sect was dressed in purple and gold robes, the second generation of disciples were dressed in navy blue robes, and the third and fourth generations of disciples were wearing gray robes. The purple and cyan ones are the protectors and elders of the faction, who directly obey the orders of the head of the sect and master the military power of Wudang and the formulation of legal principles, as well as the alliance and encroachment on foreign countries. Liu Yiyi counted it silently, and was surprised in her heart, there were thirty-two Taoist priests wearing purple and green robes in this courtyard, and the Wudang faction suddenly had so many Dharma protectors and elders guarding this courtyard, what was it for?
One of them, a younger Taoist priest who still looked to be in his forties, hurriedly took Ye Jihan from Liu Yiyi's back and brought him into a room on the left. A Taoist priest with white eyebrows and white beard said to Liu Yiyi: "Girl, your friend we will heal him, we have to ask for some questions, and I hope the girl will give advice." ”
"The person who brought us here is Zhao Binlong, as for his purpose, you can wait for my friend to wake up and ask him. Liu Yiyi thought that they were going to ask how the two of them came here and what their purpose was here, so they simply pushed everything on Ye Jihan. Before you are sure that the other party is not hostile, this can at least keep Ye Yuhan safe.
Outside the mansion, a group of vultures were grabbing Zhao Binlong's corpse. In the distance of the corpse, there stood a man with a long sword on his shoulder, his face covered by a black scarf, and his eyes were so dark that they could almost cover the stars in the sky.
A goshawk flew up from the courtyard and had just left the yard. The man with the long sword on his shoulder suddenly drew his sword, and an extremely thin and long sword light slashed towards the goshawk like lightning, and the dark sky was pierced by this sword. The sword light passed through the goshawk's body and disappeared into the night sky. The goshawk flew forward as if nothing had happened, and when it flew over the man's head, a letter with the length of an index finger fell lightly, just landing on the man's outstretched hand.
The martial arts that hurt people are very terrifying, and the martial arts that can do whatever you want without hurting people are even more terrifying? The masked man held the letterbox, his body was fluttering, and he flew away. If anyone sees it, they must think it's a ghost in the wilderness.
The morning breeze blows through the wilderness. There was no more blood in the air, and there was a piece of blood-stained soil on the ground, and the soil was covered with dry bones stained with blood, which was the proof of last night's fight.
Ye Jihan woke up and was in good spirits. Just the slightest movement, the hands and body covered with herbs have a piercing pain. Ye Jihan stood up strongly, thinking about what happened before he fell unconscious. When I opened the window, I saw an empty yard and a high wall. Entering this deep mansion in this way, Ye Shuhan smiled bitterly.
"Why did you come along?" the door was pushed open, and Ye Shu didn't look back.
A strange laugh sounded: "Ye Gongzi, I am not your sister." ”
The person who came was He Wulan.
"Why is the Sect Master of the Heavenly Providence Sect outside the Saiwai here?" Ye Jihan was really a little surprised to see her here.
He Wulan sighed and said, "It's still thanks to the great virtue of Wudang Sun, who is willing to take me in, a loser's dog." ”
Although Wudang also expected that the Mo family might interfere, he did not expect that the Mo family's forces were so strong that Wudang occupied the entire Saiwai before he could react. It was Sun Muxia and Ye who only didn't know that he canceled the original plan to send troops to support Saiwai, and tentatively arranged He Wulan, who had secretly escaped, here.
"Wudang secretly took you in just because he secretly supported you in attacking the Huashan faction, Sect Leader He, I am not from the Huashan faction, you might as well say something about me. "The Wudang faction secretly arranged He Wulan here, and it is obvious that the Wudang faction is secretly supporting He Wulan in attacking the Huashan faction.
He Wulan closed all the doors and windows, and whispered: "Sun Muxia asked me to attack the Huashan faction and hurt me and lost my home." Now I'm going to ask him to borrow troops to take back my territory, but he keeps prevaricating and letting me hide in this hellish place. So I want to ask Ye Gongzi to tell me what secrets are here, worthy of your life last night. ”
Ye Yuhan laughed secretly in his heart, it turned out that He Wulan wanted to use some secrets to suppress Sun Muxia, in exchange for some troops to take back the outside of the plug. Then he said tentatively: "Sect Leader He, you came here earlier than me, you must know better than me." ”
"Hmph!" He Wulan said hatefully. "There are dozens of Taoist priests here, each more old-fashioned than the other, no matter what I do, they don't let me get close to the three rooms in the middle. Ye Gongzi, if I hadn't persuaded them to take you and that girl in yesterday, you wouldn't have woken up so quickly today. So if you know something, I'd like you to tell me. ”
Although He Wulan's words reminded Ye Kuhan to repay his kindness, the meaning of the naked threat was fully revealed.
Ye Jihan became more and more sure that what Zhao Binlong said was true, if Chifeng was really in one of the three rooms, then he should know a lot about his father. And twenty-two years ago, when everyone was besieging his father, why didn't the people of Feiyu Pavilion go to help, and besides, his father had been hiding in Huashan for many years, how could he suddenly be discovered by others? Is there someone who told him? Ye Yuhan had a stirring spirit in his heart, and secretly warned himself: Someone must have leaked the secret, and his father who was hiding in Huashan was besieged. If someone really informes, then the informant Chifeng should also know who it is, or maybe it is Chifeng. Thinking of this, Ye Jihan felt that it was even more necessary to see Chifeng. It's just that in the heavily guarded mansion, how can you see Chifeng without the consent of the guard?
He Wulan looked at Ye Jihan thoughtfully, thinking that Ye Jihan was thinking about how to tell her the secret here, and he was happy in his heart, and he didn't urge, just stood there and looked at Ye Jihan with a smile.
Ye Jihan pulled back his thoughts and saw He Wulan's smile, his face was embarrassed, and he hurriedly pretended to be mysterious: "The person locked up here is actually a big devil in the rivers and lakes more than thirty years ago, and was later secretly hidden here by Sun Muxia. ”
"More than thirty years ago, the Great Devil?" He Wulan was skeptical.
"Yes. Ye Jihan persuaded. "Just use this secret to threaten Sun Muxia to change troops and horses to attack the Mo family, do you think there is a chance of winning? Take 10,000 steps back, Wudang sent all the soldiers and horses to be dispatched by your He Sect Master, are you sure to win the Mo family?"
The ancestor of the Mo family was originally a family of generals in the previous dynasty, and its methods of training soldiers and horses and arranging troops were passed down from generation to generation and improved, and the ordinary sects in the rivers and lakes were naturally incomparable with the use of troops. However, in the troubled times, various forces control each other, and no one wants to see one side sit big, so any force that wants to dominate the industry has to go a long way. On this long road, it is very likely that it will be swallowed up like Hewulan.
He Wulan pondered Ye Jihan's words. If he can really command all the soldiers and horses in Wudang, he may not be able to expel the Mo family. Moreover, Wudang is far away from Saiwai, and his own troops are sleepy and lacking, so he has no chance of winning. Thinking of this, He Wulan felt that there was no hope of recovering his homeland, and regretted not falling in his heart, regretting that he should not covet temporary benefits and lose his foundation. Thinking of this, He Wulan was speechless.
