The 210th time, waiting for an opportunity to abscond

"But even if I believe you, what's the use? Everyone else believes that the Sword Gate Rebellion was done by Yang Zhan. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Even if this incident proves that it was not his doing, then the Zen Master was killed, and Hu Banweng and others were attacked, and he still couldn't escape the involvement. Tie Shi Chan said angrily.

Tie Shichan originally hated Yang Zhan as much as the others, but at the Guilt Questioning Conference, Yang Zhan risked his life to save his close friend Deng Jiuxiao, so he felt that the charges arranged by Zhao Chengzong for Yang Zhan after the Guilt Questioning Conference were biased. At least the crimes of harming the Sword Gate and collaborating with the country and the enemy are not established.

It's just that Tie Shichan's change in attitude caused ostracism, and he was finally arranged by Zhao Chengzong to go to Luling to investigate. It's just that Tieshi Chan is diligent in his work, but he is not as grinding foreign workers as other people who go to Luling together, so he is far ahead as soon as he sets off.

Murong Yunzhen couldn't believe what Tie Shi Chan said, he couldn't imagine that Yang Zhan had suffered so much unfair treatment in the only half a year since they had been separated. Murong Yunzhen then asked Tie Shi Chan about these things one by one, and when he finished listening, he was already angry.

"Then where is my eldest brother now?" Murong Yunzhen asked anxiously.

Tie Shi Chan then told the story of the group of heroes going south to Lingnan, and then added: "Zhao Chengzong went to Lingnan with a top martial arts master, which means that Yang Zhan will definitely appear there." ”

Murong Yun was really anxious, so he immediately turned his horse's head and left in the dust. Jiang Xinyue saw that Murong Yunzhen was in such a hurry, so she had no choice but to chase after her.

After Yuan Zongliang and Sima Chongcheng decided to go south together, they became inseparable all day long, and those who didn't know looked at it for fear that they would think that these two people were close friends in life and death. Sima Chongcheng knew that Yuan Zongliang's move was to spy on him, so that he could succeed in exposing Zhao Chengzong's plan in Lingnan, how could he feel so happy? But Sima Chongcheng was afraid that if Zhao Chengzong would come to kill him as Yuan Zongliang said, he hoped that he could protect himself like a personal bodyguard. After all, life-threatening things are always more important than personal feelings, so Sima Chongcheng can only choose to pretend to be happy with one or the other, so that his trip can be safe.

It's just that the trip of the two of them can't end in a day and a half, and Sima Chongcheng and Yuan Zongliang have been together for five or six days, but they have not seen Zhao Chengzong or the men and horses instructed by Zhao Chengzong to chase and kill him. In this way, Sima Chongcheng hesitated in his heart.

"Zhao Chengzong has always acted decisively, why didn't he take any action all the way? Could it be that Yuan Zongliang deliberately made up these frightening words so that I could promise to come forward to correct Zhao Chengzong?" Sima Chongcheng secretly speculated.

Sima Chongcheng thought of Yuan Zongliang's recent courteous behavior towards him, and he became more and more convinced that this was the case. If Zhao Chengzong didn't plan to get rid of him, then Sima Chongcheng would not be willing to be an enemy of this powerful person no matter what, so Sima Chongcheng would regret the things he promised Yuan Zong.

In addition, Sima Chongcheng also had another layer of worry in his heart, that is, Jing Si's hatred for him that was deep in his bone marrow. Even if Zhao Chengzong doesn't kill him when he goes to Lingnan, Jing Si will never let him go. Sima Chongcheng knew that no matter who he fell into, he would inevitably die, so he began to think about how to get out.

But Sima Chongcheng couldn't do these things openly, because he couldn't let Yuan Zongliang know, and he didn't dare to let him know. In this way, Sima Chongcheng deliberately kept his words and deeds the same as usual, but he just deceived Yuan Zongliang.

One day later, the two of them came to the border of Lingnan. The summer in Lingnan came very early, and it was extremely hot and boring, and Yuan Zongliang lived in northern Jin for a long time, so he was naturally not used to it.

Sima Chongcheng then pretended to be uncomfortable, and wanted to find a mountain spring to quench his thirst. Yuan Zongliang also happened to feel that his mouth was dry, so he agreed.

Sima Chongcheng secretly rejoiced in his heart, so he pretended to grope and walked towards the mountain. Although this place is far away from Wuzhi Mountain, it also belongs to Lingnan, and Sima Chongcheng can be regarded as a complete escape.

"Dao Chief, I'd better go with you to fetch water. Yuan Zongliang suddenly followed behind him and said.

Sima Chongcheng was shocked in his heart, and then his heart was cold, so he hurriedly said: "The weather is sultry, and it will be cooler for the owner of the Yuan Zhuang to stay under the tree." This kind of fortunate thing should be done by the poor way. ”

"Dao Chang is older than me, how dare I enjoy my own happiness and let you do this drudgery?" Yuan Zongliang disagreed.

Sima Chongcheng paused, and then said: "Poor Dao has just passed the age of the sixtieth year, and he is indeed a few years older than you. Since the owner of the Yuan Village has such a heart of respect for the elderly, then the owner of the Yuan Village will go to fetch water, and the poor road will take advantage of the shade under this tree. ”

Yuan Zongliang had already had the intention of preventing Sima Chongcheng from flying alone, otherwise he would not be inseparable from him along the way, but now seeing that Sima Chongcheng seemed to want to break himself, how could he agree?

"The mountains and forests here are gloomy, and there are no people for hundreds of miles, so Yuan thinks it would be better for you and me to go together. What if I get lost here, or I can't find the Taoist when I come back?" said Yuan Zongliang disapprovingly.

Sima Chongcheng finally saw that there was a chance to get out, how could he give up so easily? I saw him cover his forehead, and then call himself dizzy.

"This is caused by heat and lack of water, if you don't drink water in time, I'm afraid that you will collapse, so the Taoist chief shouldn't stay here alone. Yuan Zongliang said calmly.

Sima Chongcheng wanted to defend again, but Yuan Zongliang had already leaned down to pull him.

"If you can't walk, let Yuan give you a ride. Yuan Zongliang stared at Sima Chongcheng and said coldly.

Sima Chongcheng was also afraid that Yuan Zongliang would doubt him, after all, if he was suspicious, it would be difficult for him to escape in the future.

"How dare you dare to drive the owner of the village with you? Sima Chongcheng replied helplessly.

In fact, after Yuan Zongliang persuaded Sima Chongcheng early in the morning, he secretly decided that he must complete the matter of correcting Zhao Chengzong in front of the Lingnan heroes, and for him, he would not allow any mistakes in the process at all. And Yuan Zongliang also has a plan for possible changes, so no matter how hard Sima Chongcheng tries, he can't succeed in the end.

Although Sima Chongcheng is not as smart as Yuan Zongliang, after all, he was the head of the first sect in Lingnan, and he still accumulated contacts in this wild land. For example, the members and followers of the Red Lotus Sect.

After Sima Chongcheng and Yuan Zongliang hurried for another afternoon, they completely entered the Lingnan region. It was getting late, and the two had to find an inn to spend the night. But there's not even a decent village to be found here, let alone an inn in the town.

It is a common thing for people in the rivers and lakes to eat and sleep in the open, but Yuan Zongliang did not dare to do this at the moment, firstly, because he was afraid that Sima Chongcheng would take the opportunity to escape, and secondly, he was also worried about whether Zhao Chengzong would take the opportunity to attack Sima Chongcheng.

Sima Chongcheng naturally hoped that Yuan Zongliang would return disappointed, but the other party was extremely clever, so he concluded that this place was inhabited just by looking at the sparseness of the grass and trees in the mountains. But Yuan Zongliang finally found a family, but when he opened his mouth, he found that neither of them could understand their words. Only then did Yuan Zongliang remember that there were many different races in Lingnan and the dialect was complicated, so he secretly regretted that he did not include this detail in the scope of thinking.

Although Sima Chongcheng understood, he was silent, hoping that the matter of staying overnight would be stopped. But what a clever man Yuan Zong, although he did not understand the local dialect, he could gesture with gestures, and the most important thing was that he took out a silver ingot in time and handed it to the farmer.

Then he saw that after the peasant households had accepted the silver taels, they opened the firewood door with a smile on their faces and welcomed them in. After Sima Chongcheng entered the house, he looked around a little, but was pleasantly surprised to find a pair of jade porcelain vases enshrined in the inner hall. This jade porcelain vase is a token of the Red Lotus Sect's North Branch Altar, which has the effect of turning evil into good fortune and blessing peace.

Sima Chongcheng then sat down, then placed the Taiji Longquan Sword in his hand on the table, picked up a teacup, poured tea and drank it.

"This cup has accumulated so many tea stains and I don't clean it, and the host is lazy enough. Sima Chongcheng said and spilled the tea on the ground, and then turned the teacup upside down in front of the case.

Yuan Zongliang then looked at the teacup, but sure enough, there was a circle of blackened tea stains on it.

After Sima Chongcheng deducted the first teacup, he took another teacup, and after a little scrutiny, he said: "This is also the same dirty, but how dare the guests drink it?"

After that, Sima Chongcheng put the second teacup upside down. Yuan Zongliang knew that Sima Chongcheng had just retired from the position of head of the sect and the national teacher, and naturally retained the corresponding identity, so he said: "This is to find a poor family in the mountains, and the Taoist chief will take a moment." ”

Sima Chongcheng was still dissatisfied with this, so he lifted the entire teapot and poured it directly into his mouth. Yuan Zongliang was a little angry, because when Sima Chongcheng drank water from the spout of the teapot like this, he had never enjoyed any tea at all.

But at this time, the peasant came up to the hall with dinner dishes, and when he saw Sima Chongcheng behave like this, he was a little angry. Because in the customs of the Red Lotus Sect, drinking water from the spout of a teapot is extremely uncultivated.

But the peasant later saw the Taiji Longquan Sword and the two upside-down teacups placed on the table by Sima Chongcheng, so he put back the anger he had just shown.

The farmers served the meals one by one, and then took their wives and children to enjoy them with Yuan Zongliang and Sima Chongcheng. Although they didn't understand each other's words, the farmers were very enthusiastic, not only helping the two of them to serve dinner, but also asking for food one by one. Yuan Zongliang only smiled lightly when he saw this, but said in his heart: "But he is also a master who sees money." ”

After the two of them finished eating, the peasant arranged a room for them to rest according to Yuan Zongliang's diagram. Sima Chongcheng looked at the room slightly, and then looked at Yuan Zongliang, and then said: "I was tired after a day's journey, so I went to sleep first, I don't know if the owner of Yuanzhuang is sleepy?"

Sima Chongcheng didn't say anything, Yuan Zongliang didn't feel tired, but as soon as he asked this, Yuan Zongliang only felt sleepy. But he was afraid that Sima Chongcheng would play some tricks, so he deliberately said to him: "I am not sleepy, but I am in a hurry during this time, I need to meditate to recover some strength, and the Taoist chief must not snore to distract me after sleeping."
