9. Gadgets
The people of the Zhurong faction had not left for long, and sure enough, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and someone rode in the direction of Yang Mingjian. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Yuelu Mountain is under the jurisdiction of Changsha, and just a few years ago, the Justice Gang set up a Changsha rudder in Hengzhou.
The helmsman of the Changsha branch is called Ye Benshan, who was personally assigned by Xuanyuan Changkong.
Ye Benshan is steady and humble, and when others are at the helm, they are deeply trusted by Xuanyuan Changkong. Ye Benshan took the lead and saw Xuanyuan lying on the ground from a distance. Ye Benshan didn't wait for the horse to arrive, and came to Yang Mingjian with a flying body.
Ye Benshan's voice trembled with anxiety, he grabbed Yang Mingjian's shoulders with both hands, and said, "Childe, what's wrong with the old man?"
Yang Mingjian did not hold any position in the Justice Gang, but he was most cared for by Xuanyuan Changkong and had a special status. However, usually, Yang Mingjian is humble and polite to people, and all the gangs call him Gongzi, when Ye Benshan was at the helm of Jiangnan, his friendship with Yang Mingjian was already good.
Yang Mingjian had a sad expression on his face, Ye Benshan didn't need to ask, and he also had a strong sense of foreboding.
Ye Benshan knelt on the ground with a "plop", kowtowed three times to Xuanyuan Changkong's corpse, and cried: "Helper, I'm late, I'm really damned." “
Dozens of people arrived on horseback, and they all dismounted, fell to their knees, and wept bitterly.
Xuanyuan Changkong has the grace of knowing Ye Benshan, Ye Benshan is usually a man who values love and righteousness, he asked Yang Mingjian, knowing that Xuanyuan Changkong killed the hands of the people of the Demon Sect, he immediately gritted his teeth and said: "These damn remnants of the Demon Sect, I swear that I must find them, break them into pieces, and avenge the helper." “
Yang Mingjian's mood gradually calmed down, with a sad look on his face, and said, "These remnants of the Demon Sect shouldn't have gone far, now ask Brother Ye to quickly send someone to find their whereabouts." There aren't so many people here, just leave a few people to help me.
As soon as Yang Mingjian finished speaking, he suddenly seemed to remember something, and he reminded again: "Also, these people have extraordinary martial arts, but they are crazy, and they can do everything, so they should tell the brothers to be careful." Try to serve them with hidden weapons and poisoned arrows, otherwise, if we fight, we will definitely suffer a big loss. Yang Mingjian remembered the cruelty of the leader when he spoke, and couldn't help but feel sick again.
Ye Benshan saw that Yang Mingjian's expression was ugly, and knew that what he said was true.
Ye Benshan called a leader over, with a serious expression, and whispered in his ear for almost half an hour. After hearing this, the leader said "obey" to Ye Benshan, then whistled, and left with most of the men, leaving only Ye Benshan and six of his men.
Ye Benshan's expression was solemn, and he said, "The resurgence of this demon sect is really unexpected. It seems that we still have to report to the general altar and prepare for it in advance, so as not to cause another disaster. “
Yang Mingjian said: "Let's wait until we take care of the aftermath of our father-in-law." ”
At this time, Ye Benshan's two subordinates led Xuanyuan Changkong and Yang Mingjian's horses over, Ye Benshan saw the bag on the horse's back, he stretched out his hand and said, "Childe, that's the relic of the helper." We have to sort out the relics of the gang leader first, and see what else he has to explain to the old man when he is alive?"
Yang Mingjian opened Xuanyuan's empty bag, and there were two suicide notes inside, as well as the token of the helper.
Ye Benshan said: "These two suicide notes were left for you by the helper. “
Ye Benshan picked it up and handed it to Yang Mingjian, and sure enough, the envelopes of the two suicide notes read "Righteous son Yang Mingjian personally opened". Yang Mingjian opened the envelope and read both letters.
Ye Benshan said: "This weather is too hot, help the master with his old man's body, do you want to transport it back to the helm?"
Yang Mingjian said: "No need, everything is simple, don't do funerals, just find a quiet place to make a home for your father-in-law." The stepfather had already instructed in his suicide note. ”
Ye Benshan understands Xuanyuan Changkong's temperament, and he has always done what he says, and he only needs to obey orders to be a subordinate. Still, there was a hint of worry in his heart.
Ye Benshan said: "Childe, if you don't handle this matter properly, the stinky mouths of these villains will have a chance to play on the topic." When the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and when this thing is big, people dare to tell any nonsense. ”
Yang Mingjian said disapprerovingly: "The world is so big, no matter where it is, it is the home of our people, why use local boundaries to divide each other?"
Ye Benshan nodded and said, "Childe is reasonable. The gang leader is chivalrous and broad-minded, and any place in the world is his home. No matter where he settles down, he is a big hero in everyone's mind. ”
Yang Ming sword said: "Into the soil for peace." While it's still early, let's find a good place to bury our father-in-law. ”
Ye Benshan didn't say more, seven or eight people worked together, looking for a place on the mountain, digging a pit, moving the body, and burying it, until the moon rose high, and then the tomb of Xuanyuan was piled up.
As soon as it got dark, Ye Benshan asked his men to light the torches. Yang Mingjian, Ye Benshan and the others, with tears in their eyes in front of the grave, kowtowed respectfully three times before turning around and leaving.
Back in Changsha, everyone took a bath and had dinner together, and then Ye Benshan arranged an upper room for Yang Mingjian to stay.
Haoyue was in the sky, although it was already the first half of the night, Yang Mingjian still couldn't sleep for a long time, and Xuanyuan Changkong's death couldn't let him come out of his grief. Yang Mingjian remembered that a few days ago, he and Xuanyuan Changkong were talking and laughing together, and they had endless fun, but in just three or two days, this living person would never know him forever, and he couldn't help but burst into tears.
Thinking of Xuanyuan Changkong, Yang Mingjian suddenly remembered what Xuanyuan Changkong had secretly stuffed into him before he died, and he went out of his arms.
This is a trick, Yang Mingjian opened it and looked inside, dumbfounded, it was actually a gadget that seemed to be played by a child. This gadget is only half the size of a fist, carved into a rooster, majestic, and has a winged high-flying appearance, carved vividly, lifelike, but it looks like a chicken not a chicken. The carved chicken is brightly colored, colorful, like iron and non-iron, and it is impossible to see what material it is.
Yang Mingjian thought to himself, what kind of gadget is this, it's almost the same as giving it to children to play with.
However, Xuanyuan Changkong valued this object so much that it was never seen by anyone, and Yang Mingjian was sure that this was definitely an extremely unusual treasure.
Yang Mingjian took the gadget and turned it over and over, carefully checked the "up and down" of the gadget, but found nothing suspicious, and then knocked it on the table, and did not hear any abnormal sound, and then knocked it again with a lot of force, Yang Mingjian found that the material of this "chicken" seemed to be extremely hard. Yang Mingjian lifted the gadget up, and wanted to slam it on the ground to see if the material was as he thought, he lifted it for a long time, and finally put his hand down, after all, this is not an ordinary thing, in case it is broken, the consequences may be difficult to control.
After checking for a long time, Yang Mingjian still couldn't figure out anything, but his stomach was full of depression, so he simply put away the gadgets, put them in his arms, and threw himself on the bed. However, this night, Yang Mingjian lay on the bed, tossing and turning, his thoughts fluctuated, and he couldn't sleep.
Finally got to dawn, Yang Mingjian heard a few knocks outside the door, and someone called "Childe", and it was Ye Benshan's voice.
Yang Mingjian immediately put the gadget in the bag and put it back in his arms, and then opened the door and let Ye Benshan in.
Yang Mingjian asked, "Brother Ye, is there something wrong?"
Ye Benshan smiled: "Childe, can't I look for you if you're fine?"
Yang Mingjian clasped his fists and saluted, "There was Brother Lao Ye last night." ”
Ye Benshan's words were full of blame, and said: "A family doesn't speak two words. You're still being polite with me?"
Yang Mingjian said: "Have you found any whereabouts of the remnants of this demon sect?"
Ye Benshan said: "Where is it so fast? It's been less than two days now, and you think that the people in this demon sect are all pigs, lying in the pig's nest for you to find." “
Yang Ming said: "This is also true. The people of the Demon Cult are so cunning, and even the whereabouts of my stepfather and I are clear before, I am afraid it will not be so easy to find them. ”
