In the pavilion in the inner courtyard of the Chang'an Society, Ye Tian frowned, clasped his hands on the table, and was silent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In the last years of the previous dynasty, the emperor was mediocre, the officials were greedy and corrupt, and natural disasters caused the situation to be turbulent and full of heroes. In the face of the weak army of the Xi Dynasty, the powerful can attack the city and pull out the village, and the small one dares to occupy the mountain as the king.

The Chinese army was one of the mediocre ones in the gate valve that year, and it belonged to the kind that was insufficient in attack and more than enough to defend. But in the end, he was able to overthrow the Yuan royal family and become the co-lord of the world, and the Martial Arts Alliance, which was formed by a number of large sects, played a significant role in it.

Therefore, after the establishment of the Hua Dynasty, the Wulin League also gained a lot of money, and took the opportunity to absorb more gangs in the rivers and lakes to expand its power. After just a few years of development, the ever-changing Wumeng gradually became a behemoth that the imperial court feared and could not forcibly uproot, until it finally sat on an equal footing with the imperial court, separating black and white.

In a way, the Wumeng is like a vassal state. To say that the Dahua Imperial Court has no intention of banning the Wumeng, it may not be possible to deceive children. And to say that the Wumeng is not vigilant against the Dahua Imperial Court is also joking.

Which emperor would allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch? So for so many years, Dahua has maintained a superficial peace with the Wumeng, and is also trying to weaken the influence of the Wumeng among the people.

These truths are well known to each other, and they don't mention them tacitly. It's just that at the bottom, a lot of things seem to have changed again.

Like Qingjiang, Zhao Dong is the leader of the local Wumeng, Zhao He is the local prefect, and the two are blood relatives of the Zhao family. It can be said that Qingjiang has completely become a country within a country of the Zhao clan headed by these two people, where is there any confrontation?

Now in Qiyang Pailing, Cao Yujie and Cao Yuankui's complementarity is not enough to cover the sky with one hand, but if it is purely aimed at the Chang'an Society, it is enough to make Ye Tianzhan look forward and backward.

Qiu Rubai, as the guest elder of the Lianyun faction, is a high-ranking and lowly person, and he has always ignored the affairs of the sect, so he doesn't know that Cao Yujie and Cao Yuankui have this relationship.

What's more, Cao Yujie has unabashedly shown his hostility to the Chang'an Society in public.

With the strength of the Lianyun faction that was included in the top ten sects of Qiyang when it first arrived, it may not be necessary for the Lianyun faction to take action in person, and there will be other sects willing to act as pawns in order to curry favor with Cao Yujie.

In the past, for the stability of Qiyang Wulin and the need to resist the Yiren bandits, the Qiyang Wumeng should be a peacemaker. However, now that the bandits are temporarily suspended, and the Chang'an Association has recently become famous and high-profile, who knows what others will think?

Qiu Rubai said: "It may not be too bad. ”

Ye Tian came back to his senses and said with a smile: "It's nothing." It is not in vain to be able to shock the world, and it is a mediocre talent not to be envied. The Chang'an Association was already at odds with the enemy gang, and it also slapped the Lianyun faction in the face, and a few more were like that. ”

Gu Liuli didn't know when she started, and she had inexplicable confidence in Ye Tian. She didn't have much to worry about, and took over: "You should say that you don't have to worry about having too much debt." ”

"What is the debt, don't worry, it's clear that the dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, and it is more accurate. Su Linglong scoffed.

"Why don't you two have a good word?"

"Do you have a plan in place?"

"Originally, I was thinking that the soldiers would come to block the water and cover the earth, but think about it again, what will be the reaction of the outside world if we suddenly close the mountain gate at this time?"

"Closing the mountain gate, aren't we going to investigate Xu Liang's murderer?" Gu Liuli was quite surprised.

The meaning of closing the mountain gate is different from closing the door to greet guests, but even staying in the meeting and not going out. But seeing Ye Tian smiling and silent, Gu Liuli's heart moved, and she felt as if she had caught something, but it was very vague.

Tracking down the murderer rarely yields results in a short period of time, and if the other party runs away, it is often not possible to find any clues for several years. It may still be useful to hurry up now, but what Ye Tian means is to do the opposite?

Qiu Rubai suddenly asked another question: "Recently, many people who are preparing to participate in the martial arts conference have arrived in Qiyang, will the murderer actually hide in it?"

Ye Tian didn't think about this problem, but considering that the other party had an accurate grasp of Xu Liang's whereabouts and succeeded in one blow, the possibility of foreign forces would not be impossible, but it was too small.

After a brief explanation, he added, "It's fine. No matter who it is, unless he just wants to kill Xu Liang alone, he will definitely commit the crime again, and he will still show his traces. ”

"Then what is the use of you sealing the mountain except to avoid other families making trouble at this time?"

"Let's assume that the other party's real goal is my Chang'an Society, why do you say that the other party chose to attack Xu Liang at this time?"

Su Linglong replied: "As the day of the martial arts conference is gradually approaching, the fame of the Chang'an Association is becoming more and more famous. I don't want to wait for Chang'an to become a big success, the sooner you start, the better. It should have been planning and gathering intelligence. ”

"Then I'm unexpectedly closing the mountain now, is the other party in a hurry?"

They don't dare to make a big fuss, but it doesn't mean that there will be losses if they stop there. ”

Gu Liuli's eyes lit up: "Will the mountain be closed until the martial arts conference is held, or will it only be for a month or two?"

Ye Tian smiled and asked, "How long does Senior Sister think is appropriate?"

"Two months later, when they look for another opportunity, they are afraid that it will make them scruples. How about a month?"

Two months later, it was August, and there were only less than three months left before the martial arts conference. At that time, Xin'an County must have gathered countless warriors, and if the murderer wanted to attack Chang'an, he had to carefully avoid those people, and the difficulty would not only increase several times.

Ye Tian smiled: "I think so too. ”

Su Linglong pondered for a moment: "The one-month deadline is okay, the other party will not give up without even waiting for a month." But there is not much time left for them, and when the time comes, we will inevitably face a stormy offensive. ”

In order to solve Xu Liang at one time, the murderer dispatched a sixth-rank martial artist and six seventh-grade martial artists. And Ye Tian, who is also the head of the house, is a cut above Xu Liang's strength, plus the two girls and Qiu Rubai, if they still want to fight for a kill, the energy that the other party wants to use can be imagined.

"In a denomination, the head of the sect is the key person. When the time comes, I will go out for a walk alone, and it will be ridiculous for them to return to the enemy. ”

Gu Liuli and Su Linglong said in unison: "No!"

The original plan to lure the snake out of the hole was for Ye Tian and Gu Liuli to investigate, and Qiu Rubai secretly followed. Su Linglong was escorted by a man in black and acted alone. Now hearing Ye Tian say this, he immediately spoke out against it.

"Nothing can't be done. I didn't expect that someone would stay on guard in the meeting, but in today's situation, it is still necessary. Ye Tian looked at Qiu Rubai: "You can protect me secretly when the time comes." ”

"If your speculation is correct, otherwise everything is in vain. Qiu Rubai said.

"Why don't we make a bet? If it's really as I expected, what will happen if you join me in Chang'an?"

"What does it matter to you. ”

has become a person who can collect a place list, and there is no loss if it is not successful, such a deal is unwanted, it is better to have more.

Ye Tian smiled secretly in his heart, and said, "Then it's decided." ”
