Chapter 37: The Rumors
Yue Xing went all the way to Hengyang, this trip was not urgent, there were many stops on the way, and finally entered the Hengyang boundary on the fifteenth day. After searching in the city for a long time, I finally found the return to the Yanlou, and stayed there, wandering around during the day, meditating and practicing at night, and so on for two days.
On this day, Yue Xing was sitting in the lobby for dinner, and suddenly heard several men at the adjacent table who seemed to be people from the rivers and lakes talking about each other.
"Everyone knows about the Fuzhou Fuwei Dart Bureau, right?" spoke a lean man with a shrewd face.
A five-year-old and three-thick dwarf beside him took a sip of wine and said, "Of course I know, Mr. Lin of the Fuwei Dart Bureau is hospitable, Lao Lu passed by Fuzhou back then, and he was entertained. Hehe, Mr. Lin is a righteous person and doesn't say it, his mother-in-law is also very good. The man said, his face yearning, and his expression was indescribably obscene.
The thin man took a long sigh when he heard this, sighed, and said, "Mr. Lin is hospitable, and most of his friends on the road know about it. Although his martial arts are mediocre, but because of his righteousness, everyone never embarrass him, and even has many friends with him. But half a month ago, he was killed!"
Several people at the same table fell silent all of a sudden, and after a while, a fat middle-aged man took a sip of wine and said with a sigh: "I often float in the rivers and lakes, how can I not be stabbed." Everyone is begging for a living on the knife, and life and death are common, but it's a pity that Lin Zhennan is such a man. ”
The rest of the people agreed, and the five big and three thick dwarf suddenly asked, "Hao San'er, do you know who hurt Mr. Lin's dart?"
Hao San'er was the lean man, hearing this, a pair of small eyes rolled twice, turned his head to look around, only Yue Xing was sitting in the distance from them, and there was no one near the table, so he lowered his voice and said, "How can I know about this?" But I heard from a friend on the Tao that the murderer of Lin Zhennan was a person with a lot of background. He said with a mysterious look on his face.
Yue Xing heard a few people talking about Lin Zhennan in the distance, and listened attentively at the moment, although Hao San's voice was low, Yue Xing's internal skills were profound, and his ears and eyes were extremely sensitive, so he listened to his words at the moment, and was secretly angry in his heart: "Yu Canghai is really ruthless, he deliberately sent the disciples of the Qingcheng Sect out of the city, just to confuse me, make me think that he has left, and then secretly attack." Alas, Lin Zhennan's catastrophe still can't escape after all. I don't know what happened to Lin Pingzhi right now. ”
A few people at Hao San's table didn't seem to know about this matter, and after listening to Hao San's words, they suddenly shouted: "Tell me quickly, how big is that person?" A few people next to him looked at Hao San but smiled silently, and someone called Xiao Er and ordered: "Xiao Er quickly serve good wine and good food." Then he said to Hao San: "Third Brother Hao, I will call some wine to moisten my brother's throat, and my brother will tell us what happened." ”
Not long after, Xiao Er took two large jars of high-brightness wine and sent them, Hao San shrugged his nose, laughed, and said: "Thanks to the hospitality of the brothers, how dare Hao not tell the truth?" He poured a bowl of mellow spirits, took a sip, and said: "Among today's martial arts, the most powerful is the Holy Sect, the Oriental Sect Leader's martial arts are the first in the world, and the two envoys on the left and right, the ten elders, the hall masters, and the altar masters, are all first-class masters, and they are a few cuts stronger than Shaolin Wudang." ”
When everyone saw this Hao San suddenly talk about the Holy Sect, although they were impatient, they also listened with patience, and nodded their heads in agreement frequently.
Hao San continued: "But the people of the Orthodox Church and the Holy Sect are in the same vein, vendetta against each other, and they use the strength of countless sects to confront the Holy Sect, and the two sides are also equal. Among the orthodox churches, the Shaolin and Wudang factions are respected, regardless of the number of masters in the sect or the level of prestige, they all crown many sects of orthodox religion. ”
Speaking of this, Hao San showed a strange look on his face, and then said: "Next is the Wuyue Sword Sect, these five sects are individually, I am afraid they are inferior to Shaolin and Wudang, but Zuo Lengchan's methods are stunned, and the five factions are polished and let him drive the order, almost the same faction, this Wuyue Sword Sect Alliance can be called the third sect in the orthodox religion." ”
Everyone nodded, but they were also impatient in their hearts, the short man surnamed Lu frowned together, and said, "Hao San, don't talk about these nonsense that everyone knows, quickly say who killed Mr. Lin's dart." ”
Hao San was not annoyed when he heard this, and after laughing, he said: "I said that the person who killed Lin Zhennan has a great background, if this person is a member of the Holy Sect, there is no fuss." But if this person belongs to the Orthodox Church, if it comes to the origin, the above three schools are the most popular. ”
The surname Lu frowned, and said in a deep voice: "So, it was someone from Shaolin, Wudang, or Wuyue Sword Sect who harmed Mr. Lin's dart?" said with a heavy look on his face.
Hao San glanced at him, and suddenly his voice became cold, and said: "Lao Lu, you are very righteous, have you made up your mind and asked the murderer who killed Lin Zhennan, and in the future, find this person and kill him to avenge Lin Zhennan, and you will repay Lin Zhennan's hospitality to you?"
The man surnamed Lu nodded very firmly, but didn't say anything.
"Hehe," Hao San suddenly sneered, and said, "Don't daydream, that person is from a famous family, has outstanding martial arts, and is even more ruthless, if you want to kill him, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg." As a brother, I remind you that if you want to drink with your head saved, you will lose your thoughts of avenging Lin Zhennan. ”
The surnamed Lu looked unhappy, slapped the table and shouted: "Who are you talking about, see if the surname Lu is afraid of him." ”
Yue Xing sneered in his heart from a distance, and said secretly: "A character like you is tantamount to a chicken and a dog in Yu Canghai's eyes. ”
Then I heard Hao San snort coldly and said, "Okay, since you don't listen to persuasion, I'll tell you, I hope you still have the mind of revenge after listening to it." After a slight pause, he asked again: "There are really many people in the Orthodox Church, who are strong in martial arts, otherwise they will not compete with the Holy Sect for a hundred years." Looking at the world, who are the people in the Orthodox Church who have outstanding martial arts?"
Everyone didn't understand why Hao San diverted the topic again, but they often liked to talk about some interesting things in the rivers and lakes when they were bored, and most of the masters in the martial arts knew their names. ”
Another humanitarian: "The head of the Huashan faction is known as the gentleman's sword, and his swordsmanship is superb, and his qigong is even more famous, perhaps not inferior to Zuo Lengchan." The rest of Mr. Hengshan Moda, Taishan Tianmen Daoist, Hengshan Dingxian Shitai, Sichuan Qingcheng Sect Yu Guan Master, and the Beggar Gang Xie Feng Gang Leader are all first-class masters in the rivers and lakes. But what do these people have to do with Lin Zhennan's killing?
The man surnamed Lu also looked incredulous and glared at Hao San. Hao San smiled proudly and said, "Of course it has a lot to do with it, Lao Lu, did you say that you can beat the people you just talked about?"
The man surnamed Lu only said that Hao San made fun of him, and then snorted coldly, and said: "They are all martial arts masters who have been famous for a long time, how can I beat them? Hmph, I can't beat them, Hao San, you can beat them? If you can beat any of them, it is better to set up your own door, and also be the head of the big sect to have a good time, and then I will be the first to vote under you." ”
Hao San was secretly angry by the words of the surname Lu, and thought: "If you want to take revenge and send you to death, it is up to you, what is the matter with Lao Tzu." At the moment, he sneered and said: "The person who killed Lin Zhennan is the sister-in-law of the Huashan Sect Gentleman Sword, and the people in the rivers and lakes are called the Little Demon Monarch Yue Xing!"
