Chapter 25: The Legend of the Demon Spring

Yun Lao opened his mouth, and the first thing he did was to kill someone, Liang Xie almost broke out on the spot, but thinking about his wife, who was still sick at home, he still held back.

"Ahem...... Yun Lao coughed twice, and then said: "There is a big mansion in the south of 'Linxia Temple', and there are often some unknown people in and out of the house, led by a monk, find an opportunity to kill him!"

Liang Xie frowned even more, as a killer, he either killed or was killed, he didn't understand this truth, but he still hated killing, and he hated killing some unknown people, especially hated killing innocents, not to mention that the other party was still a monk.

Yun Lao didn't open his eyes as if he had seen Liang Xie's expression, and said: "You are the hall master of the 'Battle Soul Hall', but your heart is inevitably too soft, and Li Er and Thirteen are very good to you. ”

Liang Xie smiled a little self-deprecatingly: "Yun Lao taught ......" This sentence seems to admit mistakes, but in fact it can be regarded as powerless resistance and ridicule.

Yun Lao said: "'Slow down and unsuccessful, soft and indecisive, likes and dislikes are indecided, and there is no determination ......', if he is miserable every day because of your momentary benevolence, who can forgive this evil?" He paused slightly, and did not wait for Liang Xie to reply, and continued: "You don't have to be perfunctory to me, this time you want to go, you can go, if you don't want to, I will recruit thirteen of them back." ”

"I talked about the common people again. Liang Xie listened upset but didn't dare to answer, if he had a choice, he would have stopped doing it a long time ago, why wait until now? Now he can only lie to himself with the same common people, if he can really have a good result, he will not be in vain.

Liu Shiyi, who had not spoken, said softly: "The boss is more careful, Yun Lao Mo is angry. ”

Yun Lao smiled and said, "It's good to be careful, it's a pity that we don't have that much time." I'm afraid that in a few days, something big will happen in this Gyeonggi land, and if we don't make a response in advance, I'm afraid that years of hard work will be in vain. Xu said too much, and Yun Lao's breathing became heavy again.

Everyone was taken aback, and Li Er took the lead in asking, "But what news did the 'Fengyun Hall' get over there?"

Yun Lao opened his eyes, sat up slowly, and asked without answering, "Have you ever heard of Lord Jing Huijing?"

Li Er nodded and said: "Jinghui, the word Xihuang, the number 'Eight Desolation Shenwu', one of the top ten masters of the Great Interior, the only person who has practiced the Eight Wilderness Forbidden Moves in the Eight Wilderness Valley for two hundred years, three years ago the Inner Court competed for martial arts, took everyone lightly, and became the first master of the Great Interior." ”

Yun Lao smiled slightly and said, "How is Master Jing's martial arts compared to you?"

Li Er hesitated slightly, gritted his teeth and said: "We have never fought each other, but conservatively estimated, we have four enemies and one dare not say victory." ”

"With four enemies and one enemy, I haven't dared to say anything, and I'm embarrassed to say it. Feng Qi muttered in a low voice, Li Er frowned and did not refute, he couldn't refute, not to mention that with four enemies and one, even if the people of the entire 'Battle Soul Hall' joined forces to face Shangjing Xihuang, it was estimated that there was no need to change the words.

Elder Yun sighed and said, "Lord Jing is dead. ”

"How is this possible?" all four of them were shocked, barely believing their ears.

For Jing Xihuang's strength, all the people who practice martial arts in the capital have heard of it, and the layman said it is even more exaggerated, it is said that Jing Xihuang's martial arts are unfathomable, and the eight desolations and forbidden moves against the odds are not bad, and he has long been invulnerable. A storyteller once joked that even if Jing Xihuang stood there and didn't move, ordinary people would cut it with a sword, even if they were tired to death, they wouldn't hurt him in the slightest. Although it was just a joke, everyone who had done something with Jing Xihuang admitted that this was an out-and-out truth.

Liang Xie thought in his heart: "It is rumored that this Lord Jing has a straightforward temperament, and since entering the palace, he has only been in charge of protecting the emperor's safety, and he has never paid attention to things outside of his duties. How many officials in the court secretly entrusted him to do things, but he didn't give anyone face, and even the powerful and oppositional internal governors had no way to treat him, so the 'rootless party' had long regarded him as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh, but because of his relationship with the emperor and his extraordinary strength, the internal governor had to let him ...... three points."

"Who has this kind of strength?" Li Er, who had always been arrogant, couldn't help but be moved and asked.

'Ahem. Yun Lao coughed lightly twice, shook his head and said: "I don't know yet, Yun Qimao got the news, Lord Jing was killed at dawn yesterday, and his body was hidden in the grass It was only found in the middle of the night last night...... Ahem......" He coughed twice, and then said: "Although there is no empirical evidence, I am afraid that the death of Master Jing is not unrelated to that monk. ”

Li Erdao: "Yun Lao means that this monk is disguised by others?"

Liang Xie said: "If they are really involved, they can completely disguise themselves as other identities, why should they pretend to be monks so eye-catching?"

If Yun Lao glanced at Liang Xie intentionally or unintentionally, Liang Xie was excited, Yun Lao smiled and said: "This monk does not belong to the two major Buddhist temples in the capital, if the wandering monk 'Linxia Temple' is near the left, why don't he go to place orders, but swagger and live in the house?"

Li Erwei thought for a while, nodded and said: "People who don't even bother to hide their identities in the capital, although they don't know who they are, it's not difficult to guess. ”

Feng Qi said: "Are you saying that it was done by someone from the 'Rootless Party' again?"

Li Erdao: "In addition to being an errand in the palace, Lord Jing goes home to serve his mother, and never walks around the rivers and lakes, it should not be a grudge against the rivers and lakes, and in the court, only the people of the 'rootless party' want him to die." "His meaning is very clear, and it seems that he thinks that the people of the 'rootless party' did it.

Liang Xie shook his head and said: "There should be no such master in the 'Rootless Party', I heard that an assassin broke into the imperial city the day before yesterday, and Lord Jing chased after him alone, he must have been killed by this assassin, and there is only one 'Dragon God' in the capital who has such skills, could it be ......?"

Li Er snorted and said: "The Dragon God and Emperor Qizong have a very good relationship, the two have met alone more than once, if you want to have a different heart, you should do it early, why wait until Qizong's grandson ascends the throne?"

Liang Xie was robbed of a few words by Li Er, and his face was gloomy, but first, he had no intention of arguing, and secondly, what Li Er said was indeed reasonable, and he was silent at the moment.

Feng Qi glanced at Li Er and said, "You know!"

Li Er sneered: "Is this hard to guess? The martial arts function on the rivers and lakes comparable to that of Lord Jing can be counted on one hand, whose martial arts function makes the recruiter paralyzed as mud, and who is most likely to have entanglements with Lord Jing and the emperor? If you are the 'Dragon God', will you have a good life, but let go of the tens of thousands of brothers under your hands, and run to the palace alone to assassinate?"

Feng Qi snorted, knowing that he couldn't talk about Li Er, so he simply ignored it.

Liang Xie frowned and said, "So is it a giant thief outside the gate, an 'immortal evil venerable'?"

Liang Xie said this, Feng Qi suddenly suddenly. According to the legend of the rivers and lakes, the people with the highest martial arts today are the 'Thunder Dragon Shadow Thief Yan Jinghong', and the immortal evil venerable is one of the thieves. It is said that the immortal evil venerable practiced a body of evil martial arts, could break his arm to survive on his own, and the sharp blade passed through the neck without dying, but he was still afraid of death, and he spared no expense to hire a craftsman to create a pair of steel armor to wrap his whole body, rarely showing his true face. Although this immortal evil venerable is afraid of death, but the attack is extremely cruel, the person he killed is either paralyzed and boneless or has broken muscles and bones, it is said that this person is extremely greedy for money, as long as he can afford to do anything, although ordinary people can't afford him, but some people are not short of silver. In this way, it seems that it is really him.

Yun Lao interrupted everyone's speculation and said with a smile: "What you said has some truth, but random speculation will not help after all. Although I studied martial arts for a few years when I was young, after all, I didn't walk around much on the rivers and lakes, and I had no clue about the number and strength of the martial artists of all the masters in the rivers and lakes, so I couldn't help much....." He paused for a while, and then said: "The people of the 'Fengyun Hall' in terms of martial arts are not as good as you, so you can inquire about the affairs of Lord Jing, cough .....cough, cough ......" He said faster, and couldn't help coughing again.

Liang Xie said: "The two things that Yun Lao confessed today, one is to kill the monk, and the other is to find out who caused the death of Master Jing, right?"

Yun Lao nodded and said, "It's two things, and it could be one thing." ”

Liang Xie asked again: "If that monk is just an ordinary monk invited by a rich and noble family to do things, not a murderer of Lord Jing, and he doesn't know martial arts, do you still want to do it?"

Yun Lao coughed lightly, and pondered slightly: "The whereabouts of these people are strange, their movements are unknown, if the emperor makes a mistake, the 'rootless party' is bound to dominate the world, whether this monk is a good person or not, we don't know, and we can't afford to gamble, and the people of the world can't afford to gamble." ”

Liang Xie said in a deep voice: "We must live up to our mission." "He has doubts in his heart, do the people of the 'Rootless Party' really need to invite someone from outside if they really want to kill the emperor, but looking back and thinking about what the young master said to him yesterday, since the queen and Wu Jingguo have already made a quarrel on the surface, this matter is really not good, after all, the 'Immortal Evil Venerable' heard that he is the national teacher of Fanbang, and he can't even affect Wu Jingguo's head, and the aftermath is the simplest, but if that monk is the 'Immortal Evil Venerable', it is too arbitrary.

Yun Lao smiled and said, "What's the matter, you're soft-hearted again?"

Liang Xie didn't answer.

"Alas!" Yun Lao sighed and said: "This is also a helpless move, we can't tolerate half of the accident, wrongful killing is just a person who dies in vain, if the wrong person dies, I am afraid that it is not only you and me, but thousands of people." Yun Lao paused, stared at Liang Xie with his eyes, and said slowly: "Liang Da, those who do great things should know how to weigh the end." ”

Liang Xie got up and hugged his fists and said, "My subordinates arranged it." ”

Yun Lao nodded silently. Liang Xie beckoned, led Li Er, Feng Qi, and Liu Shiyi to turn around and leave.

"A few ......" Yun Lao suddenly got up and said, "I have been wronged." Everyone was flattered, hurriedly turned around and returned the salute, Liangxie's nose was sore, and he left with a few people.

Seeing everyone leave, Yun Lao sat back in his chair and shouted, "Someone." Outside the door, two green-clothed men pushed the door in, and said in unison: "'Fengyun Hall' disciple ......" and one said: "Yun Qi." Another person: "Yun Eleven" The two said in unison: "Wait for the dispatch." ”

Yun Lao instructed: "Suspend the exercise tonight, and take Yun Liu to talk back and forth at the right time." Yun Qi and Yun Eleven said in unison: "Yes!" Yun Lao said again: "Did you also hear our conversation just now?" Before they could answer, Yun Lao said again: "Before noon, you arranged for someone to go into the city to inquire about the news, and by the way, spread the news that the giant thief 'Immortal Evil Venerable' killed Lord Jing." The two of them hugged their fists and said loudly: "Yes." "Turn and leave.

Yun Qi and Yun Eleven left, Yun Lao's breathing gradually became heavier, his body began to tremble constantly, the hand holding the table was deeply cut in, and then he coughed violently, his face was flushed, trembling and forbearing, his forehead was bruised, the bloodshot on his eyes became denser, and the nostrils were slowly bleeding, and finally, a mouthful of blood spurted out, his eyes were black, and he fell softly in the chair ......
