This is already under the direct rule of the Great Sui, a out of the border of the Jin Kingdom, it is the Sui, here is only more than 20 miles away from the border of the Jin, several mountains tower, among which the most dangerous mountain peak is the lair of the Wang Yang thief red scarf thief, the red scarf thief can be described as notorious, ruthless man, the Great Sui has been encircled and suppressed many times, all failed to get ahead. Led by seven people, self-proclaimed seven-star thieves, one-star Xiang Tiange, two-star Xiao Hanyue, three-star Wen Ruyu, four-star Feng Changsong, five-star Jiang Buspic, six-star Qin Baobao, seven-star Wan benevolent enemy, all of them are outstanding in martial arts, and there are nearly 2,000 people under his command, all of whom are fierce people, all wearing red scarves, so they are called red scarf thieves.

As soon as Shao Yan came out of the Jin Kingdom, he inquired about the various forces around him, but the red scarf thief was the most notorious one, his robbery did not ask the reason, the rich and the poor did not distinguish, and if you were unlucky, obediently hand over all of you, a little hesitation, it was the head of the land, and he usually bullied men and women, especially the two-star Xiao Hanyue, who was the only woman among the seven, was born with the surname Yindang, and liked young and beautiful men and women the most, she was a man and a woman, so that Shao Yan had to marvel at her unique taste.

Lin Yunru's first reaction was to kill him and go up the mountain and kill him directly. Shao Yan stopped her, such a vicious person, if he can control it, it is a rare strength.

The master and apprentice came to the old nest Niushou Mountain, just arrived at the bottom of the mountain, a gong sounded, and several minions wearing red scarves stopped in front of them, and they didn't shout any robbers' universal set, a few minions stared at Shao Yan and the two, showing a hehey silver smile, and a rough strong man said to a black man next to him: "Black skin, these two fat sheep are relatively tender, are they caught and given to the second king." Shao Yan only felt a chill on his back, Lin Yunrou couldn't hold it anymore, her body shook, and she was already in front of Minions, Shao Yan hurriedly shouted: "Pay attention to your subordinates, don't kill or cripple." I only heard a crackling sound, and several minions had fallen to the ground, struggling and screaming for mercy, and the rough minions probably didn't have a few teeth left.

Shao Yan shook his head, with a wave of his hand, several runes of light shot into the heads of several people, and several people immediately got up, standing aside obediently, bowing their heads and ears, Shao Yan said: "Don't take us up the mountain yet." Several people immediately stumbled in front to lead the way.

When he arrived at the mountain, Shao Yan didn't think about persuasion at all, and directly used the [***] technique to control the minds of the Seven Star Thieves with this group of wicked people, and after placing a ban in his brain, he ordered them to train hard and not to do evil.

Lin Yunrou felt very excited when she did such a thing for the first time, and shook Shao Yan's arm and begged: "Sir, it seems that there are still a few bandits around, so let's just deal with it like this together." ”

Shao Yan lamented in his heart, it is easy to learn badly and difficult to learn well, Zhengse said to Lin Yunrou: "This matter cannot be repeated, this gang of robbers is full of evil because of their evil, and they are punished by this, and they can't be used indiscriminately because this method is easy to use. ”

Lin Yunrou pouted: "People just make a suggestion, and the master is teaching others a lesson." ”

Let the surrounding people surprise the things appeared, the once ferocious red turban thieves seem to have changed their ways, that is, the robbery is also aimed at the rich and corrupt officials, and the ordinary people have not committed any crimes, with the passage of time, the red turban thieves are gradually called righteous thieves.

After Shao Yan and Lin Yunrou went down the mountain, they didn't use magic powers, they couldn't travel dozens of miles, it was dark, there was no one in the wilderness around, a bonfire was raised, and they simply sat on the ground, and spent the night here, the master and apprentice sat cross-legged by the fire, and when it was near, Shao Yan suddenly turned around and looked into the depths of the wilderness, and Lin Yunrou then also heard the voice, and also looked into the darkness.

The darkness could not constitute an obstacle at all for the two of them, only to see a purple-haired man running in front, and seven black-clothed masked men chasing after him, both of them used secular light skills, the purple-haired man was dressed in purple, some places were damaged, and his shoulders looked wet, which should be bloodstains.

Shao Yan's master and apprentice have been out for so long, and it is the first time to see real martial arts people, originally, the two of them are monks, and they don't care about martial arts people, walking in the world, although they occasionally hear about the martial arts sect, but they don't pay attention to it, and they care more about the cultivation sect. Now that the martial arts people appeared in front of them, it aroused the interest of the two, and the purple-clothed and purple-haired man saw that there was a fire in front of him, so he ran to this side, after all, it would not be an ordinary person to spend the night in the wilderness where no one was there at night.

The purple-haired man rushed to the front, staggered, fell to the ground, and there was an iron thistle tied at the shoulder blade of his back, blue and faint, obviously quenched, the big man fell to the ground, struggling to climb in, and the black-clothed masked man chasing behind also arrived, and he didn't speak, only to see their hands raised, and the hidden weapons in the sky were even covered by Shao Yan and Lin Yunrou, obviously wanting to put the three of them to death together, and they didn't ask for any reason at all, Shao Yan's robe sleeves waved, and a gust of wind counterattacked the hidden weapon that shot at himself and the big man, Lin Yunrou's sleeves waved, and the hidden weapon shot at her was also thrown back, the master and apprentice acted in unison this time, and heard a few sounds in their ears, and the seven men in black had fallen to the ground。

The purple-haired man struggled to get up and bowed his hand: "Thank you two for saving your life, and then go down to Wei Beiyang, the leader of the Iron Blood Pill Heart Alliance." Shao Yan held him down: "Don't move, I'll take off the hidden weapon on your back first." Shao Yan pulled out the hidden weapon, the blood of the wound had changed color, Shao Yan took out the antidote pill, pinched it into powder and applied it, the elixir refined by the monk was not comparable to the medicine in the mortal world, Wei Beiyang only felt a burst of cool infiltration, a burst of itching, and he didn't feel a trace of pain, and immediately praised: "Good medicine!" Fortunately, he couldn't see his back, he only thought it didn't hurt, but he didn't know that the wound had completely disappeared, otherwise, he didn't know how to be surprised.

Wei Beiyang thanked him again, but Shao Yan groaned a little, the Iron-Blooded Dan Heart Alliance, as if he had heard of it, remembered it, he had heard that this martial arts organization is a respected organization with the purpose of hoeing the strong and helping the weak, and restoring justice. Wei Beiyang saw that Shao Yan seemed to be thinking about something, so he said, "Mr. is not from the martial arts, right?"

Shao Yan came back to his senses, hugged his fists and said: "It's rude and rude, our master and servant are not from the martial arts, and Xu Hongzu Xu Xiake is here." Lin Yunrou said: "My name is Xu Qing'er, and I am my husband's scholar." ”

Wei Beiyang was taken aback: "You are the world-famous Xu Xiake, the Xu Xiake who wrote the travelogue." Shao Yan said in surprise: "I have such a big reputation?" Wei Beiyang said with a smile: "My brother is a scholar, and he worships Mr. so much, if Mr. goes to the place where some scholars are, he will report his name and ensure that the admirers are flooded." ”

Shao Yan asked: "What is the origin of the masked man who chased and killed Your Excellency?" Wei Beiyang groaned and began to tell why he was hunted down, it turned out that as the leader of the Iron-blooded Danxin Alliance, because he was dissatisfied with the dictatorship of Yu Wen Chenghua, he framed loyal ministers and good generals, and in the case of his subordinates' assassination misses, Wei Beiyang personally took action, however, only killed a stand-in, and then was hunted down, those masked people may be the killers of the Jianghu Killer Alliance invited by Yuwen Chenghua.

After listening to Wei Beiyang's narration, Shao Yan praised: "The great man of chivalry, for the country and the people, the lord of the Wei League can be called a hero." Wei Beiyang said modestly: "Mr. praised falsely. ”

Shao Yan's voice changed: "However, assassination alone cannot change the fundamentals. ”

Wei Beiyang said: "What did Mr. teach me?" Shao Yan said: "Wei Daxia, how many people do you think can help the world?"

Wei Beiyang thought silently for a while, and said: "As far as I know, among the important ministers of the imperial court, among the princes, there are only two or three people, from the comprehensive consideration of fame and ability, Yang Guang, the king of Jin, should be the first, and he knows how to make good use of people, but unfortunately, the court is not at ease with it, and he is named the general of Zhennan and guards the southern frontier; the second is Li Shimin, the king of Qin, who is good at governance, rigorous in governing the army, and has a set of winning the hearts of the people; the third is Yang Dan, the king of Qi, but unfortunately he is old, and his son has no one to become a weapon. The ministers of the court and the central government, those who have righteousness, are either killed, or they return to their hometowns, and there are no upright people. ”

Shao Yan said: "The so-called right path is nothing more than surrendering to the Lord and recovering the world. However, to vote for the Lord, one is to recognize the Lord, and the other is to be valuable. Wei Daxia doesn't know what objections he has to these two points?"

Wei Beiyang said: "Sir's words are good, for the Ming Lord, King Qi should not be considered, only the King of Jin and the King of Qin are left, but my Iron Blood Pill Heart Alliance may not be eye-catching." ”

Shao Yan asked, "What is the power of the Iron-blooded Pill Heart Alliance?" Wei Beiyang said: "The Iron-Blood Pill Heart Alliance is divided into five halls, five halls of etiquette, wisdom, benevolence, righteousness, and faith, and each hall has about a thousand available people, all of whom have certain skills. ”

After thinking for a while, Shao Yan said: "Instead of icing on the cake, it is better to wait for the time to move and send charcoal in the snow." ”

"What's the explanation?" asked Wei Beiyang.

"Now to take refuge in one of them, just the icing on the cake, it is better to stand still, wait for the time to come, if one party is in trouble, come to the rescue, as a charcoal in the snow. Shao Yan explained.

"When and where might there be an opportunity?" Wei Beiyang asked again. At this point, Shao Yan thought in his heart, and finally led you into the ditch, so he said: "Now that the Yan Kingdom of Daiguo is in turmoil, Fang Ai, the ministers of the Great Sui, and the local princes are ready to move, but in two years, the Great Sui court will be chaotic." Among the two, the king of Jin is not in the fiefdom, the court ministers, there must be someone who wants to take the fief as a hostage, forcing the king of Jin to submit, the fief of the king of Jin, although the people are peaceful, but the remaining troops are insufficient, it is difficult to resist, such as at this time, help him to resist chaos, for the world to protect a Ming Lord, this is to send charcoal in the snow. ”

Wei Beiyang was overjoyed: "Mr. is a true wise man." Lin Yunrou saw with her own eyes on the side, how Shao Yan involved the Iron Blood Pill Heart Alliance, secretly admired, the master made a move, and in less than two days, he laid two dark chess pieces around the Jin Kingdom, once something happened, there should be nothing to worry about.

Wei Beiyang said again: "Beiyang is not self-sufficient, dare to invite Mr. to meet with the headquarters of the Iron Blood Pill Heart Alliance, so that Beiyang can better get Mr. teachings." Shao Yan thought about it for a while, and agreed, Wei Beiyang was very happy, so he led the way.

After a period of hurrying, the three of them came to a mountain villa, at this time the east was white, Shao Yan and Lin Yunrou glanced at each other, there were actually monks in the villa, ordinary monks because they could not perfectly control their own breath, in the eyes of high-level monks, like a bright light in the night, this monk obviously only had the cultivation of the qi refining layer.

The gate of the villa was not opened, but there were obvious means such as lookout holes in the door, and there were also special guards, as soon as the three of them arrived at the door, the door creaked open, and the two guards bowed down to greet them, and when they entered the door, most of them basically did not get up, Wei Beiyang ordered to prepare breakfast, and gave another order, so that the upper echelons such as the hall master of the alliance would discuss normally after breakfast.

After breakfast, Wei Beiyang led the two to visit the villa, at this time, many people in the villa were practicing, just some martial arts and the like, turned around the martial arts field, entered a small courtyard, a middle-aged man was sitting on the small pavilion in the center of the pond refining qi, it was Shao Yan who sensed that one, refining qi seven layers of cultivation, as soon as the three entered, the monk suddenly opened his eyes, saw the three of them, and was stunned, in his eyes, Shao Yan's breath did not leak at all, and Lin Yunrou's breath only rarely leaked, but the two seemed to be integrated with the surroundings, which this monk had never seen in other monks。 Just as he was about to speak, a voice sounded in his head: "Fellow Daoist, the two of us are currently walking in the world as mortals, please keep it secret!" It was Shao Yan who transmitted the voice, swallowing it into his mouth.

Wei Beiyang introduced to Shao Yan's master and apprentice: "This is my righteous brother Sikong Huai'an, who has been taught by immortals, and is an immortal master. He also introduced Shao Yan's master and apprentice, and when he heard Xu Xiake's name, he was thoughtful, but he was very respectful to the two of them, and Wei Beiyang was a little strange.

At this time, the next person came to invite, and the hall master and others were already waiting in the hall, and everyone walked towards the hall.
