Itoga's sudden departure did not attract the attention of everyone, especially the Blue Dragon Messenger, who was very happy when he saw that Itoga had ordered the servants to prepare food and large ships.

In fact, the Blue Dragon Envoy didn't know that the rudder was on Irabu Island at the beginning of June. Otherwise, the Blue Dragon Envoy would have sent a message to Ito when he was not yet close to Irabe Island. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been spent too long on Irabu Island.

You must know that although the Blue Dragon Club has 365 rudders, there is no connection between each rudder, and even the chief rudder does not know where the specific rudder is. The chief helmsman of the Blue Dragon Club only needs to accept the performance list and tribute to the owner of the Blue Dragon sent by each rudder every year, and return it to the master of the Blue Dragon. There is no direct connection with the individual rudders.

Therefore, there are often cases where some rudder is lost for a long time. But this will not attract the attention of the chief helmsman of the Blue Dragon Society and the owner of the Blue Dragon, because it is common for gangs of all sizes to fight and kill on the rivers and lakes, and it is normal for a rudder to be destroyed by others. Normally, if a rudder has not been reported upwards for more than five years, the chief helmsman of the Blue Dragon Society will draw this rudder and develop another rudder.

And the sixth rudder at the beginning of June happened to be the fifth year of losing contact.

The night is already deep.

The bear was still unable to sleep, but he still came to find the leaves. When Hako opened the door, Kumashi found that there were two other people in Hazuko's room, one was Saburo Yagyu and the other was Sakurako.

Xiong was stunned.

Ye Zi smiled: "Liu Shengjun is right, he said that you will definitely come! Let me prepare an extra pair of dishes and chopsticks." ”

It turned out that Yezi, Yagyu Saburo and Sakurako actually drank here in the middle of the night.

Xiong said coldly: "I don't drink. ”

Ye Zi smiled: "Aren't you quite able to drink, why don't you drink the wine in front of your mouth?"

Xiong said wistfully: "That Itoga"

Before Xiong Yu finished speaking, Ye Zi interrupted Xiong Yu's words and said, "The island master of Itoga is quite good! ”

Xiong was dissatisfied, looked at Sakurako and said, "Sakurako, tell me, don't you have a deep hatred with Itoga?"

Sakurako frowned and shook her head.

Xiong Yu was expected to say to Yanagi Saburo, "Yanagi Sang-kun, you talk about it!"

Liu Shengjun said: "Drink! Wine and food are companions, what more can you ask for in this life?"

Xiong was puzzled and said, "You guys, why have you all changed like people! He got up and clenched his sword, "No, Itoga has to be killed now." He's the kind of person he deserves to die!"

Xiong Yu couldn't sit still, and after he finished speaking, he rushed out.

Sakurako and Saburo Yanagi hurriedly pulled Kumamu back.

Xiong said dissatisfiedly: "What are you doing, I'm going to kill Itoga for you, and you don't want to."

Yagyu Saburo said: "It's not difficult to kill Itoga, the difficulty is that the person hiding behind us hasn't come out yet." ”

"The person behind it" Xiong was puzzled.

Sakurako said: "Yes, not long after we left Youlan Valley, Youlan Valley was attacked, and my master, Mr. Inoue Yamamura, was also killed. ”

Sakurako's words are full of sadness, beyond words.

Xiong said, "How did you find out?"

Sakurako took out a note from her bosom and said, "This is a vulture raised by the master to give me, in fact, he has long known that he will suffer this disaster, so he told us everything." Master's hiding place is known only to us. The people hiding behind must have followed us quietly, and only killed the master after we left. ”

Xiong Yu took the note and sighed: "In other words, this mysterious person is not hostile to us, and his target is Mr. Inoue Yamamura." Mr. Inoue, that Yamamura, does he have any enemies?"

Sakurako shook her head and said, "Master, he was kind and charitable during his lifetime, and there would be no enemies at all." ”

"Could it be that your second uncle did it," Xiong Yu suddenly thought, "After your second uncle came back, he saw the note you left, and he secretly followed us." He will kill your master after we are gone, and avenge the blood sacrifice at the altar back then."

"Don't slander my second uncle!" Sakurako said angrily, "Although I have seen my second uncle for a long time, I am sure that my second uncle is definitely not that kind of person! Besides, my master used to be his savior. ”

"Even if you say so, I feel in my heart that your master seems to have hidden something from us. Xiong Yu still expressed the doubts in his heart.

Sakurako was stunned.

Yanagi Saburo groaned, "I think too." Sakurako, your teacher told us so much, and he really didn't seem to tell us a lot of things. Just imagine, if you were your second uncle and your lover was pushed off the altar, would you really believe that your one was dead so easily, wouldn't you return to the altar to save her?"

After hearing this, Sakurako felt that what Yanagi Saburo said seemed to make sense, nodded and said, "Of course I will." ”

"In my opinion, this is probably the problem. Your second uncle must have gone back to look for Miko Ito, not only your second uncle, but also your father! I think it's best not to act rashly until you find out the cause of your father's death and what your master deliberately concealed. Yagyu Saburo said.

After listening to it, Xiong felt that what Yanagi Saburo said was very reasonable, and agreed.

Ye Zi sighed and said, "But, you startled the snake this afternoon." ”

"I didn't!" Xiong Yu had not yet realized the consequences of the quarrel with the Blue Dragon Envoy in the afternoon.

Ye Zi said: "Do you think that if you shout so loudly, won't it be heard by Itoha, who is only a wall away, you have already startled the snake, Itoga must have taken precautions." ”

Xiong was annoyed and said, "Alas, it's all my fault!"

Leaf, Yagyu Saburo, and Sakurako didn't mean to blame Kuma.

On the contrary, Ye Zi said: "This is not entirely a bad thing, maybe it is still a good thing. ”

"How do you say that," the other three asked almost at the same time.

Ye Zi said: "Xiong Yu's trick to startle the grass and the snake will inevitably make Itoga take precautions." He's definitely going to do something. Moreover, Matsumoto Lang came back suddenly, and he didn't know it. If it were me, I would definitely kill Matsumoto before Matsumoto did not make a move. ”

"However, Itoga has not moved these days. Sakurako said worriedly.

Of course, he didn't dare to act rashly. When Matsumoto didn't leave Irabu Island, his martial arts were already very high. Matsumoto Lang suddenly returned this time, and Itoga didn't find out the details of Matsumoto Lang at all. How could he act rashly," Ye Zi analyzed, "I think he should be waiting for someone, waiting for someone who can kill Matsumotoro." ”

"However, looking at the entire Irabu Island, I'm afraid there is no one who can kill Matsumotoro. Saburo Yanagi frowned.

Ye Zi smiled: "How could it not be?"

Xiong said, "Yes, of course!

Saburo Yanagi exclaimed, "What you two mean is that Itoga wants to borrow our hand to kill Matsumotoro"

Ye Zi said: "Yes, but not all. Itoga may not be able to borrow our hand, but he can borrow the hand of the Blue Dragon Messenger. You must know that Itoga is the helmsman of the sixth rudder of the Blue Dragon Society in early June, and he has made a lot of contributions to the Blue Dragon Society. Itoga provided food and a large ship this time, as long as Itoga said that Matsumoto Lang threatened the operation of the sixth rudder in early June, and Itoga himself was not capable of fighting, the Blue Dragon Messenger would definitely take action. ”

Ye Zi said for sure!

Xiong said wistfully: "Itohaga's move is killing two birds with one stone. This time, he was not only able to eradicate his troubles with the hands of the Blue Dragon Emissary, but also used this to show his loyalty to the long-lost helm of the Blue Dragon Society. Just imagine, in the past five years, there have been no major incidents on Irabu Island, and he Itoga has not been in contact with the chief helm for five years. In the past five years, he has definitely done things that are sorry for the Blue Dragon Society. ”

Sakurako suddenly realized and said, "You mean that we only need to find evidence of what Itoga has done in the past few years to be sorry for the Blue Dragon Society, and we can uncover his ugly mask."

Xiong nodded wistfully.

Sakurako said, "Then let's go collect the evidence now."

Ye Zi shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's too late, Itoga left in a hurry this afternoon, and he must have gone to destroy those evidence." ”

Sakurako frowned and said, "What should I do then?"

Xiong shook his head helplessly, and Yanagi Saburo was also very melancholy and had nothing to do.

Instead, Ye Zi asked Xiong Xuan, "I heard that you have a poem there, show it to me." ”

Only then did Xiong remember the quatrain. He handed the note to Ye Zi from his arms, and Ye Zi took it and read: ". White Yujing in the sky, twelve cities on the fifth floor. The immortals caressed my top and gave me immortality. After reading the poem, he said, "If I am not mistaken, this should be an excerpt from a poem by Li Bai." What is the meaning of these four verses?"

The leaves are also melancholy.

Xiong said worriedly: "Is it talking about a person, you know, Sakurako's mother is Chinese, a Chinese drifted across the ocean and fell into Irabe Island, she must have a secret on her shoulders." ”

Xiong Yu's words made Ye Zi suddenly have some eyebrows, and he muttered, "Heavenly Bai Yujing, Bai Yujing Bai Yujing I know, this poem is about Bai Yujing, the owner of the Immortal Sword, one of the seven divine weapons of the ancients." At that time, Yuan Zixia, the old man of the Red Flag of the Blue Dragon Society, was ordered to go to the Central Plains to clean the portal, and the Central Plains martial arts that were killed were not peaceful. Until she met Bai Yujing. Bai Yujing influenced Yuan Zixia, and the two of them took the immortal sword and flew away. There has been no news of them on the rivers and lakes since. ”

Xiong Yu had not heard of Bai Yujing's story, and he knew far less about the things on the rivers and lakes than Xiong Yu.

Ye Zi said: "This first sentence is about Bai Yujing, what about the fifth floor and the twelve cities, what will it say?"

Xiong frowned and said casually: "Will it be another person?"

Ye Zi shook his head, and Xiong Yu had nothing to do.

But Yanagi Saburo said: "The first sentence says people, so will the second sentence be a place?"

As Yagyu Saburo spoke, the leaves suddenly opened.
