Chapter 16: Undercurrent
Tang Tian came out of Xiufang, with an extra burden in his hand, which was a fine Shu brocade, which was originally brought to cover people's ears and eyes, and he would have a headache again, how to explain to the knife when the time comes, that guy will always ask why he wants to buy this thing, how much is it, and where did he buy it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Tang Tian walked around the city, seeing that most of the day was about to pass, and there was nothing special and new, although there were people wandering around like him everywhere, but everyone seemed to be abiding by some rules and did not offend each other, but where was the tail following him, what was their purpose? Although he paid attention to the surroundings from time to time, there was no trace of being followed, so Tang Tian had no choice but to go back to the inn first, and after everyone got together, he was trying to see if there were any other clues.
Tang Tianzheng walked back and saw that the person in front of him was Lu Changkong, he didn't know if it was smooth to find Ye Zhan, so he stepped forward quickly.
"Brother Lu, wait for the younger brother. It was already four or five steps away, and Tang Tian saw that Lu Changkong seemed to be thinking about this, but he didn't hear it. "Brother Lu, Brother Lu?" a few more times, and it wasn't until Tang Tian patted Lu Changkong's back shoulder that he shook his senses. "What's the matter, Brother Lu, what do you think so distractedly!"
"It turned out to be Brother Tang. Only then did Lu Changkong realize that he had lost his temper just now, and Tang Tian was suspicious, so he said vaguely, "It's nothing, I'm still thinking about the subtleties of my actions at that time, so I lost my mind." What's your news?"
"Yes, let's go back to me and think about it carefully. The two walked towards the inn, saying nothing all the way. Tang Tian secretly felt that something would change here, although he was still kind on the surface, he was uneasy in his heart.
The two pushed the door into the room, saw three or five pieces of white on the table covered with bloodstains, and then looked at the bed, Yin Yang was sweating and bandaging his wounds. Tang Tian hurriedly walked over and helped Yin Yang hold the two ends and tie them tightly.
Yin Yang wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked to the table, picked up the tea and drank it all, and the wheezing voice still hadn't calmed down.
Tang Tian asked, "Who is it?"
"Hall of Eternal Life. ”
It turned out to be the Hall of Eternal Life, no wonder even if he was injured, Tang Tian couldn't see the pain from Yin Yang's expression, but had a trace of joy.
"What is the reason?"
Yin Yang didn't speak, just smiled, Tang Tian rarely saw Yin Yang laugh, even the knife kept teasing him beside him, Yin Yang rarely laughed, this time he actually laughed himself, Tang Tian already understood what the reason was, and didn't ask again.
"What are you talking about? I didn't understand anything. Why did the Hall of Eternal Life attack Brother Yin?" Lu Changkong sat down confused, but looking at the way the two were talking, it seemed that this was still a good thing.
The Immortal Palace has always been reluctant to kill people, Lu Changkong was still uneasy in his heart, "Which person in the Immortal Palace was attacked?, it is rumored that as long as the list taken over by the Immortal Palace is never revoked, even after ten or eight years, as long as the target is found, it will be hunted down to the end, this is the terrible thing about the Eternal Life Palace." ”
"If that's right, I don't have to bother to find them. Yin Yang looked at Lu Changkong's very concerned look, so he had to continue, "I heard them call each other, one is a bitter monk, one is a night rakshasa, and the other is a wood-burning Taoist. The bitter monk hid a knife in his smile and led me into the woods to ambush me, but his kung fu was not very high. The Night Rakshasa is ruthless and scheming, and he is the most difficult of the three, and the Burning Wood Dao man has very special kung fu, but his foundation is not stable, so he is the only one who died under my sword. ”
"According to what Brother Yin said, these three people should be the seventh day of the seventh month of the new Eternal Life Palace. ”
"What is the seventh day of July?" Tang Tian couldn't help but ask.
"On the seventh day of the seventh month, when no one broke the soul in the middle of the night. It's about the fourteen extremely powerful killers of the Hall of Eternal Life. Most of the people of the Hall of Eternal Life acted in groups of three or two, and the methods they used were also extremely vicious. Brother Yin still has to be extra careful. ”
"Hmph! They're just coming. Not to mention this, what have you gained today? ”
"Brother Lu, let's talk about it first, whether Ye Zhan is going well. Tang Tian continued to probe.
"Brother Ye... There is no problem, he will do his best to help, originally tomorrow the prefect will go to visit the Seven Stars Hall, he will go with him, we can act tomorrow night. Brother Tang, what about that?"
"I didn't actually find any information, but ... Tang Tian decided to reveal some news from the Wanhua Palace to see their reactions, "It's just that when I was walking around the city today, I vaguely felt that someone was following me, and when I turned around, the other party's breath disappeared again, I thought it was an illusion, but this feeling lingered all day, I don't know if you noticed anything unusual." ”
"This... I didn't notice it, but I always believed in Brother Tang's feelings, and we should be extra careful in the future. ”
Tang Tian and Lu Changkong nodded one after another.
"By the way, the knife hasn't come back yet, will he be in any danger?" Yin Yang asked worriedly.
"I think with the cleverness of the knife, it's good if someone else doesn't have an accident. He is looking for an opportunity to infiltrate the Guo Mansion today, if he succeeds, he should be in the Guo Mansion now, and it is not necessarily a bad thing if he does not appear. ”
"That's right!" Lu Changkong took out a folded letter from his arms, "I got the roster from Brother Ye today, although the official government has nothing to do with the alliance election conference in the rivers and lakes, but Guo Zhengyang sent someone to send a copy to the prefect of Luzhou, and I copied a copy here." ”
Tang Tian spread out the roster on the table, and said while looking at it, "This Guo Zhengyang is really not an idle person, he has done everything inside and out, even if it has nothing to do with the government, but he has fully considered it for him." ”
Lu Changkong asked puzzledly, "What do you say?"
"The Jianghu people's league election meeting, although it has nothing to do with the government, but it is carried out under his nose, if he does not inform him, it will appear that he is too disrespectful to this parent official, and besides, if something goes wrong this time, the government may be charged with the crime of gathering people without permission. Guo Zhengyang's roster can avoid these problems. It's really far-sighted. At the same time, it also shows that this league election meeting must not be so simple. ”
"Brother Tang is high. Lu Changkong said admiringly.
"Then what are these people that can be used. Yin Yang didn't care about anything else, he only recognized this action.
"I think that's all there is to it. A tiger in Qianchuan and a double eagle in Mobei. Tang Tian smiled and looked at Lu Changkong and Yin Yang, "Brother Yin and Brother Lu have heroic temperaments, their bodies are extremely similar, a little disguise will definitely be considered two brothers, you are the New Mobei Double Eagle, and I will try this Qianchuan Tiger." ”
"Why these three people? Lu Changkong asked.
"The three of them are just people from the rivers and lakes who have made a name for themselves alone, and they have always been alone, unlike those sects with a large number of people, and although these three are famous in the rivers and lakes, they are located in remote areas, and ordinary people in the rivers and lakes do not know each other. ”
"But isn't it strange that these three people who have nothing to do with Jiangnan Martial Arts were invited here?" Lu Changkong asked suspiciously.
"There's also the inn where they're staying, and we'll look into it tomorrow to see if anything is out of the ordinary. ”
"It's not too early then, but I'll come back to you tomorrow morning, and I'll take my leave. Lu Changkong saw that things had been planned properly, so he took his leave.
"Well, Brother Lu will go slowly, don't send it. Tang Tian also returned the salute.
Lu Changkong got off the inn, thinking that the things arranged by Tang Tian were reasonable everywhere, and he was cautious everywhere, and he couldn't help but think of what Ye Zhan said when he visited before.
"Since the matter of internal response can help you complete the task, I will not refuse, but a few friends of yours who came to the door... I still advise you to be cautious, they may not really help you kill the enemy, you must know that now the pavilion is about to stab the sword, treat each other sincerely on weekdays, and we have seen few sneak attacks during this time?"
Lu Changkong also left early because of the restlessness disturbed by the words of the two parties, what should he do now?
In the inn.
"Brother Yin, what do you think of Brother Lu?"
"I see that he seems to have something on his mind, but this task is imminent, what can he do? I can't guess. ”
"Even you can see that Brother Lu has something on his mind, then it won't be that the younger brother is wrong, I guess Ye Zhan and his party must have made him shake a little, whether it is good or bad, we have to be more vigilant." ”
"That makes sense. ”
