Du Hong did not return to the Hengjiang Gang to divide the rudder, but went straight to the Jianchuan South Wharf.

According to Yan Li's estimate, Yu Changhe, the leader of the Hengjiang Gang, if it were not a brain-dead waste, would definitely make arrangements as quickly as possible after receiving Du Hong's letter.

It took about five or six hours for the letter to be delivered to Yu Changhe. If there was no problem on the road, early yesterday morning, Yu Changhe should have read the secret letter.

The helmsman of the Hengjiang Gang is not in the capital of the Western Qin Dynasty, and it is only a few hundred miles away from Jianchuan. A fast boat, going south along the river, is so smooth that it doesn't even take twelve hours.

Considering various factors, especially the place of Jianchuan, everyone does not like conspiracies. Hengjiang helped the helmsman to be replaced, so he raided at night and killed Zou Tong, and the possibility of turning the world upside down early the next morning was ruled out.

Well, the most opportune time is this morning.

When there is the most crowd on the pier, the clipper under the banner of Yu Gang will arrive in Jianchuan in a high-profile manner.

As for the candidates......

For the long river, the great river waterway must be obtained, and Zou Tong must be cut off regardless of whether he is a rebel or not. And the next helmsman is likely to be the No. 2 person in the Hengjiang Gang in the future, so he must be Yu Changhe's own cronies.

Du Hong couldn't guess who his uncle would choose, just as he didn't understand why it was the time of the three poles.

At that time, Yan Li refused to tell the secret of customs clearance, the reason was very simple: Du Hong's goods did not have any city government? Telling him everything would only make him get carried away and Zou Tong would easily see the flaws.

In Yan Li's words: "That person is a surprise to you. When you meet him, you will understand that the co-helmsman is in your pocket. ”

Yan Li's exhaustive strategy and calm tone gave Du Hong unparalleled confidence. But when it came to the end, he was a little worried: what if the master miscalculated and the co-helmsman flew?

"Well, what if there is no co-helmsman?" Du Hong said to himself, "this time, and that time." This young man is already a master of blood exchange, and his worth is different. Zou Tong can't dispose of me at will. Who is the helmsman, and how can he endure me?"

Thinking of this, Du Hong's pace became more and more brisk, and he walked all the way to the dock.

Poor Duhon. He didn't know at all, not to mention the position of the deputy helmsman, even his little life almost flew when he was testing the medicine last night!

When Du Hong arrived at the dock, the time was still a little early, and Yu Changhe's people had not yet arrived, but the dock was already busy.

When some of the gang saw Du Xueyi who was conspicuously dressed, they immediately came over to greet him: "Yo, Senior Brother Du is early! You are here to find Master Zou Helm this morning?"

Du Hong was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart, why is Zou Tong also here? He was silent on the surface, and after greeting him, he asked, "Why, isn't Lord Zou Helm sitting in the helm?"

"Don't you know?" The gang didn't take it seriously, and replied casually, "Lord Zou Helm came to the warehouse yesterday! I want to continue today, and I don't know what to check about the things in the warehouse......

The news of Zou Tong's disagreement with Du Hong has spread, and the prestige of the innate master has plummeted, and the gang dares to chew their tongues behind their backs.

Du Hong's eyes lit up when he heard this. As a gentleman, he has no other skills, but he has a natural sensitivity to money. Otherwise, when Yan Li was teased by Yan Li's sentence "The sword can have no edge, how can the hero have no bones" to vomit blood, can he still think of embezzling with bitter meat?

When he heard that Zou Tong had been at the wharf for two days in a row, he immediately thought excitedly: Zou Tong, this old horseman, really can't bear it! He came to the wharf to take stock? Phew! He must have come to move supplies, ready to sell, embezzle, and run away! He was just on the wharf, wasn't he hit by his uncle's people?

No wonder, the lord asked me to act in such a scene yesterday, not only to cut Zou Tong's face, rub his oil and water, but also to startle the snake with a trick, so that the old man himself concocted evidence!

The Lord God counts! Now I don't even have an excuse!

"Hahaha......" Du Hong couldn't help laughing, and when he saw the puzzled eyes of the gang, he suddenly woke up and immediately remedied, "Lord Zou is diligent, Du won't trouble his old man." Actually, I had an occasional realization last night, and my martial arts made progress again, and I couldn't help but want to walk by the river!"

As he spoke, his fingers emitted an inch-long pure sword.

When the nearby gang saw it, they began to congratulate: "It turns out that Senior Brother Du has advanced to change blood!"

"Hahaha...... Busy with you, don't worry about me. Du was just in a special mood and wanted to see the river view. ”

Du Hongmei watched the news of his breakthrough spread, and he was still grateful in his heart: When Zou Tong heard the news, he didn't know what kind of expression he was?

However, no matter what Zou Tong thinks, he won't be able to jump for long!

He stood on the bank of the Sword River, looking into the distance, but listening to the increasingly noisy voices behind him, he kept calculating the time in his heart, and was a little anxious.

"In case the lord miscalculates...... Although that's almost impossible to ......"

Just when Du Hong's heart was like waves, one after another, on the distant level, a clipper boat with the banner of the Hengjiang Gang Fish Dragon lined up the waves and galloped over.

When Du Hong saw the flag, he breathed a sigh of surprise and said, "Huh...... Sure enough, it came......"

Immediately afterward, he heard a noise behind him, and countless gangs were exclaiming:

"There is a boat, the flag of the gang......"

"Not only the banner of the gang, but also the banner of the gang leader!"

"This boat is so fast, well, look, who's that guy on the bow?"

......

I saw the fast boat riding the wind and waves, and there was a person standing at the bow of the boat, wearing a white chivalrous robe and a pale cyan wave hero, standing with his hands in his hands, heroic and sassy, and his air was magnificent.

Du Hong's eyesight far surpassed that of ordinary gangsters, and he had already seen the comer clearly, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed in his heart: "It turned out to be him! Sure enough, my helmsman can't run away! The lord is really a god and a man!"

——......——

Wind and fire forging, Yanli courtyard.

Early in the morning, Yan Li also ushered in the expected visitors.

Shang Shaoyan two brothers.

It was too early, the tea was put on the table, Han Xi and Guiyun were on the side as usual, only Duan Yan who was entertaining the flowing water banquet was not there.

Shang Shaoyan has been busy with the evacuation of the descendants of King Wuwu in the past few days, and he has a lot of problems, and it is easy to arrange it, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and only then took Shang Shaohong to the wind and fire to forge his heart.

At present, in Jianchuan City, there is only Shang Shaoyan, Shang Shaohong's brothers, and Yan Li in the bloodline of King Wu. The former two brothers must stay for a while to attract the attention of the eyeliner. When all other retreat routes were safe, they disappeared from everyone's sight.

After breaking off in person, it is also the courage and responsibility of the royal lineage.

As for Yan Li...... Master Yan is famous, and he is currently sheltered by the Casting Zen Temple, and he will go to the Skylark Gate next year, and he does not need to consider evacuating.

The evacuees were mainly divided into two routes. All the way to Chijia City, where Southern Chu and Wu are bordered. It was the guard of the Red Feather Army, and it was currently under the wing of the old army of the Martial King. The other way is to retreat to a remote village on the southeast coast, called Bailangsha. The area is remote and difficult to find, and it is located outside the sight of various forces, and although the conditions are poor, it is better to be free.

After listening to his brief description of the arrangement, Yan Li felt that there was something wrong. But it's none of his business, and there's no need for him to interfere.

After Shang Shaoyan finished talking about this matter, he seemed to put down a big stone in his heart and turned to talk about the Hengjiang Gang. He is also a smart person, and it doesn't mean anything to Zou Tong's rebellion and self-reliance, so he can only express his sincerity and convince Yan Li's layout ability. But for Du Hong, he is not optimistic.

If you use the language of the earth to compare Shang Shaoyan and Du Hong, it is a pair of stark antonyms:

The former is a rich and handsome family background, although reduced to a sling, but born with a rich and handsome skeleton;

"Cheap Duhon, this waste. Shang Shaoyan sighed.

"Hehe, waste is easy to control. Yan Li said, "He has made great contributions to exposing the conspiracy of Zou Tong's rebel gang, plus the new helmsman has just gained a foothold, and he needs Du Hong's Jianchuan connections, and the deputy helmsman has no problem. But if he wants to secure his position as co-helmsman, he must rely on us. ”

"Hmm. Shang Shaoyan nodded and said, "What the virtuous brother said is very true. I can't imagine that behind the Hengjiang Gang is the Splendid Palace! These bitches have always disguised themselves extremely well, and we haven't been able to catch the fox's tail for decades, so we can't imagine that they are hiding here!"

As the descendant of the Martial King, Shang Shaoyan hated the Splendid Palace even more!

He paused, and then asked, "I'm curious, who will be the new helmsman?"

"Haha......" Yan Li said with a smile, "The information of the Hengjiang Gang was given to me by my brother." Brother, might as well guess who this person will be?"

"Hmm...... It must be someone Yu Changhe trusts extremely much, and he can even share some secrets of the Splendid Palace, and he must be on the table, which is enough to compete with Zou Tong...... "Shang Shaoyan frowned and thought, "If Yu Changhe wants to secure his position, he must ensure that this person will not take Jianchuan's advantage and climb on his head...... This ......"

He paused, shook his head and said, "Such a person is too difficult to find, especially when it comes to the Splendid Palace, it is impossible for Yu Changhe to trust others easily." Don't...... He's going to be in charge himself?"

Although he did not come up with an answer, Shang Shaoyan had a clear mind and was only one step away from the truth.

"If it is possible, Yu Changhe will of course take charge himself. Yan Li nodded, "But he can't come." ”

"Oh?" Shang Shaoyan couldn't figure out why Yan Li was so sure.

Yan Li took a sip of tea unhurriedly, giving the other party enough time to think, before slowly spit out four words:

"Songxing Ancient Road. ”

"I see. Shang Shaoyan suddenly, "It's the foolish brother's gaze that is limited!"

For a long time, the Western Qin Dynasty maintained trade with the Eastern Qi and Eastern countries through the Ancient Tea Horse Road in the Songhang Mountains. And the great river waterway of the Hengjiang Gang is bound to hit the horse gang of the Songxing Ancient Road, and the two sides will be on the same footing. Yu Changhe must be at the helm of Western Qin, and it is impossible to separate Jianchuan.

"Who could that be?"

In fact, the answer is already on the horizon. Yan Li said with a smile and uncovered the mystery, "Yu Changhe's hardcore cronies, who can share all the secrets of the Splendid Palace, have enough prestige to lead the Jianchuan rudder, and will never secretly plot to usurp the throne of the gang leader, there is only one person - his biological son, Du Hong's cousin, Yu Wenlong, the jade-faced Jiao. ”

"But...... Yu Wenlong only has the peak cultivation of blood exchange at most, how can he clean up Zou Tong? How can he act in Jianchuan, where the master is like a cloud? With just one Fu Jingshui, he can't cope with it. Shang Shaoyan wondered.

"With the financial resources and backstage of the Hengjiang Gang, is it difficult to invite a child-born worship who doesn't care about anything?" Yan Li said leisurely.

"Wonderful! It's really wonderful!" Shang Shaoyan's sword eyebrows stretched, and he admired again and again.

——......——

While chatting in the wind and fire, on the dock, the much-anticipated clipper finally docked.

Du Hong couldn't wait, happily unfolded his body, jumped onto the bow of the boat, and shouted:

"Cousin, my little brother wants you to die!!"
