68. Bishan Conference (1)

At this time, the heroes of the Baiju Gang had already rushed to the courtyard and gathered around Qin Chuan. Yi Wanyu said with a slight annoyance: "Brother Chuan, this person kidnapped Sister Sang at night and wanted to take away your fish intestine sword, he is a big villain, why do you want to let him go?"

Qin Chuan sighed: "This person has an amazing art career, and his internal cultivation is still above Cong Tiegan, Zhu Kongzi, Gu Xuan and others. If it weren't for the sneak attack of the Mulberry Helm Master, and he was a big one for a while, he would have gotten into our way. When it comes to true skills, it's hard for us to win this person!"

Yi Wanyu knew that Qin Chuan was frank and honest, and what he said was true, a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said: "There is a way to 'sympathize with each other', it turns out that Brother Chuan is moved by his love for talent, and he can't bear to kill him!"

Elder Wu said, "This person can kill Brother Wang so badly, and he is indeed a first-class master in the martial arts. I just don't know who he is?" Elder Deng said: "According to what the gang leader said, Mu Changfeng has four 'Heavenly Dao Messengers', Gu Xudao people, Cong Tiegan, and Lian Dong, plus this black-clothed man, just enough of four people!" After a pause, he said: "Although this black-clothed man has high martial arts, he has no talent for adaptation, and it seems that he is very lacking in actual combat experience! This person calls himself a 'Heavenly Dao Messenger', but he does not show the 'Heavenly Dao Order', could it be an impostor?"

Yi Wanyu suddenly said: "Uncle Deng, I don't think Lian Dong should be regarded as a 'Heavenly Dao Messenger'!

Elder Deng was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Not bad." Lian Dong's martial arts are not weak, but the weight is not enough. Alas, he is just a tool that Mu Changfeng used to deal with us!" Thinking of Lian Dong, he couldn't help but sigh softly.

Everyone said a word, and I said a word, and they all guessed the identity and origin of the black-clothed master.

Qin Chuan muttered: "The Heavenly Dao Alliance has been in business for many years, and there are really a lot of masters who have been secretly recruited. It doesn't matter who this person is. From now on, I believe he will no longer be an enemy of his own gang!" As soon as he said this, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps outside, and someone shouted: "Gang leader." Where is the helper?" As soon as he looked up, he saw Qiu Dalun and Yuanfu hurriedly rushing in from outside, and when they saw themselves, they all had a look of surprise on their faces.

Qu Chengfang snorted, very dissatisfied, and said: "Brother Yuan, Deputy Gang Leader Qiu, have you inquired about the origin of Na Laoshizi's 'Hui Mo' and 'Xuan Paper'? It's a pity that the two of you are late, and the enemy has been defeated by our Gang Leader and Sang Duo Master!"

Qiu Dalun smiled slightly and bowed to Qin Chuan. He nodded slightly to the crowd, and stood aside with his rod in his hand. At this moment, the courtyard is full of the leaders of the Baiju Gang, and as the deputy leader of the Beggar Gang, he is an outsider, and he feels that it is inconvenient to say more, so he retreats to the side.

Yuan Fu bowed to Qin Chuan, straightened up, and stretched out his sleeves to wipe the sweat from his face. said: "Qiyu Gang Leader, Deputy Gang Leader Qiu and his subordinates have found the residence of Man Tianyun, Hanzhong Double Bee and the black-clothed man who attacked last night!"

Qin Chuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "Yes, where is it?"

Yuan Fu said: "It's in a villa in the east of the city. Sighed. Shaking his head, he said, "It's just that the building is empty now!"

Xie Fei interjected: "Brother Yuan, what the hell is going on?

Yuan Fu groaned slightly, and said: "After Deputy Gang Leader Qiu and his subordinates asked a talented minister for advice, they came to Luoyang City's premier 'Chang Ji Sibao Zhai' shop. We pulled out the piece of paper. Ask the shopkeeper for advice on paper and ink. It was no coincidence that the shopkeeper immediately recognized that this kind of pine ink was purchased from his shop by a Shaoxing master at a high price a few days ago. And the appearance of the master he described. It is the 'Confucian Mansion Butler' in the east of the city. The Confucian Mansion was once the residence of the former Confucian Governor of Luoyang Mansion, and later the Confucian Governor's Mansion was transferred to Yunnan, and his family moved south. The housekeeper of the Confucian Mansion did not have time to go, and temporarily stayed in Luoyang to sell his property. There are many people in Luoyang City who know about this matter. When the two subordinates hurried to the 'Confucian Mansion', they found that the Confucian Mansion was empty, and it was obvious that they had already slipped away. ”

"The two of us searched all over the house. The Yuanfu brothers found several fragments in the paper basket in the study, and sure enough, two of them had the same handwriting as this letter, which was enough to prove that they were indeed the same person. ”

In addition, his subordinates also found traces of Hanzhong double bees, Mantianyun and other people in a side room. Judging from the kitchen, there are special food scraps and crumbs such as tsamba, barley wine, butter tea and other leftover food for Tibetans. There were embers in the fire, and it was clear that he had not been away for long, or even just left. ”

"Based on this, the subordinates can infer that the Hanzhong Double Bee, the Sky Clouds, and the Man in Black have all lived in this mansion, and I don't know if it is because they have noticed that they have been discovered by our people, or if there is another urgent matter. Anyway, they walked on the front foot, and we arrived on the back foot!"

When Yuan Fu said this, he stopped talking, looked up at Qin Chuan, and listened to his instructions. Seeing him frowning and thinking, he immediately stopped and didn't dare to disturb.

Qiu Dalun suddenly said: "Helper, what Brother Yuanfu said is indeed true. The two of us judged through the clues in each room in the Confucian Mansion that Man Tianyun and Hanzhong Shuangbee and others had indeed lived in the mansion, and they had not only lived in the mansion for a day or two. Judging from the fact that there is no mess in the bedroom, kitchen, study, stable, etc., they should have left together calmly, not in a hurry. ”

Qin Chuan knew that Qiu Dalun was shrewd and capable, and his vision was more old and spicy than Yuan Fu's, and when he heard him say this, he nodded and sighed: "It seems that Mo Fei and Man Tianyun and others are indeed living in Luoyang City. Alas, the gang has been conducting strict searches everywhere inside and outside Luoyang City for several days, and it is really unthinkable that the enemy will hide near the rudder of the gang, which is really unguardable. But I wonder if they left Luoyang, or did they change their accommodation?"

When he said this, although the speaker was unintentional, Wu and Deng Erlao were intentional. The two glanced at each other, their old faces were hot for a while, and they were very embarrassed, and they both felt that there was a slight sense of responsibility in the tone of the helper. The two of them glared at several hall masters and helmsmen again, and thought: "No wonder the gang leader blames, this gang and the beggar gang have been scouting and riding all over the world these days, and there are really a lot of masters sent out, but they haven't even seen the shadow of the enemy." This is good, but it turns out that people are close to our lair at all, and this person has lost a lot of money?"

Zhao Jin saw that everyone's faces were ugly, and his heart moved slightly, and he suddenly said: "Gang leader, Elder Wu, Elder Deng, and his subordinates have heard the words of Deputy Gang Leader Qiu and Brother Yuanfu, saying that Man Tianyun and Er Bee and others are leaving calmly, obviously coming prepared and leaving." The subordinates thought that there was something strange about this matter!" Speaking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Wu and Deng Erlao. Seeing the two of them looking at them at the same time, their eyes were shining, and it was obvious that the three of them thought of this together.

Qin Chuan's eyes also lit up, smiled slightly, and said, "I understand! What Brother Zhao means is that most of the enemy's pine ink and rice paper are deliberately leaking the heavenly secrets, and the Ben Gang is leading the gang to find their whereabouts step by step. In fact, our every move was expected!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was moved.

Sang Qinghong and Yi Wanyu whispered a few words in a low voice and smiled faintly. Suddenly, he said: "Helper, even if it is as Lord Zhao said, his subordinates think it's not a big deal." ”

Qin Chuan was stunned, looked at Yi Wanyu, turned his head to Sang Qinghong and said, "What did Lord Sang Helm see and Yun Ran?"

Sang Qinghong said indifferently: "After the battle of Mount Tai, the gang leader defeated Cong Tiegan, Zhukong Daoren, Hejian Liuxiong and other masters in the world, and his prestige is so great that it can be said that there is no difference among the young recruits in the martial arts. Mo Feixie, Mantianyun and Hanzhong Twin Bees are lurking in the Luoyang area, stirring up wind and rain. It's nothing more than an attempt to obstruct and sabotage the gang leader's succession. It's just that these people are afraid that the gang leader is good at kung fu, and they don't dare to confront each other head-on, so this is sneaky, false and real. What happened in Luoyang recently is all due to this. ”

Qin Chuan's heart moved, nodded and said, "Not bad." In fact, as long as we are unmoved, follow the steps. I don't think they will be able to make any big waves!" He looked up, and saw that the sun was already setting in the west, so he said to the people, "Now that the Lord is safe." This is the end of the matter. This land of wind and moon should not be delayed for a long time, let's go back to the general helm first!"

At that moment, everyone came up with a "red sleeve move", and returned to the helm of the Baixi Gang, and gathered Elder Qu, Han Suo and other gang leaders at home to gather in the hall to continue the discussion.

After some discussion, they all thought that Man Tianyun, Hanzhong Shuangbee and others had left the Confucian Mansion and were deliberately lurking, and it was difficult to find their whereabouts for a while, so they had no choice but to think in the long run. The top priority is, of course, tomorrow's inauguration celebration of the helper. Judging from the situation in the rivers and lakes, whether the new gang leader of the gang can take over smoothly is already related to the safety of the gang and even the entire Central Plains martial arts.

This can be seen from the various incidents since returning to Luoyang. Therefore, tomorrow's event, the enemy will do everything possible to obstruct it, but I don't know what kind of conspiracy and tricks will be used. For the sake of today's plan, the only way to do this is to defend tightly and adapt to the situation.

Elder Wu muttered: "The enemy's conspiracy has been revealed several times, and I am afraid that the donkey skills have been exhausted! ”

Han Suo smiled: "Not bad. I see that the house of the Governor of Kong, which was found by the Yuanfu brothers and the deputy gang leader of the beggar gang Qiu, is obviously the nest of the thieves of the 'Heavenly Dao Alliance' these days. Now that they left early in the morning, most of them were poor in donkey skills, and they must have retreated in the face of difficulties and fled!"

Zeng Ming and Liu Qingqing said in unison: "Not bad!" Liu Qingqing's apricot eyes widened, glared at Zeng Ming, blaming him for stealing his words. Zeng Ming hurriedly shook his hands, smiled and said, "I think Brother Han Suo's words make sense." Sister Liu, let's talk about it first!"

Liu Qingqing snorted and said: "Now that the soldiers of this gang are strong and strong, there are young heroes like the Qin gang leader who are here to preside over the overall situation, and the rivers and lakes are small, and they dare not fight with swords and guns." The Battle of Mount Tai aside, it was the defeat of the 'Heavenly Messenger' in this red-sleeved move that was a living example. Could it be that Fei Fei and the Qiu brothers and others, if they don't leave today, when will they stay?"

Xie Fei shook his head and said, "I don't think it's necessarily that simple. Mo Feifei and Manyun are a generation of heroes, who have been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for many years, and they will never give up easily. Now that we are in the open, people are in the dark, and when the Ming'er gang leader takes office for the celebration, they will suddenly come out and make trouble, most of the time!" As soon as he said this, many people echoed this proposal.

Qin Chuan listened to Qunhao's mouth, and it was difficult to come to a conclusion, and when he saw that Elder Qu was also frowning and silent, he was obviously not sure of the enemy's movements. He turned his head sideways and thought for a moment, then said: "As the saying goes: 'The soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth'. Since the current situation of the enemy is unknown, everyone should only do their part to cope with all changes. ”

After thinking about it, everyone felt that the helper's words were very reasonable, so they stopped arguing. The plan was over, and then it dispersed.

Only Qin Chuan and Elder Qu were left in the hall. Qin Chuan smiled slightly and said, "It is not unreasonable to relieve the hall master's worries. After a pause, he asked, "Why didn't Elder Qu say anything?"

Elder Qu touched his beard, looked at Qin Chuan with a smile, and said, "I'm only worried about whether the helper will be in bad health after taking the thousand-year-old ginseng. As for these disputes in the rivers and lakes, let's let the three of Wu Dengwang and Zhao Jin, Han Suo, and Liu Qingqing help you come up with ideas!" Seeing Qin Chuan's mouth open, he smiled, and said: "Gang leader, according to the old man, the gang leader is already confident, the hero of the Central Plains is not weak, and it is expected that the other party will not be able to turn over the big waves! As for the speculation of Wu Jingmin, Deng Hongtu, and Zhao Jin, although there is some truth, it is not what the gang leader is worried about now!"

Qin Chuan smiled slightly, and suddenly frowned again: "Lord Han Helm came to report that most of the guests and friends of the various factions on the long road have arrived, and the Songwen Dao chief of the Wudang faction should also come, but why is there no one for a long time?"

Elder Qu said: "If there is a delay on the way here, the helper doesn't have to worry too much. Seeing that Qin Chuan was still unreassured, he leaned close to his ear and whispered something in a low voice. Qin Chuan nodded again and again when he heard it, and was full of praise.

Qin Chuan ate a bowl of noodles, went back to the backyard and slept for a while, and when he woke up, it was already the time to apply for a card. Suddenly, Yi Wanyu pushed the door in, and said with a smile: "Brother Chuan, you scolded me enough today, right?"

Qin Chuan grinned and said, "You taught me those scolding words." What's the matter, how does 'Gang', a Shanxi man who abducts and sells people, look like?"

Yi Wanyu smiled and said, "It can only be regarded as barely qualified, so-so, and unsatisfactory." It's just your Shanxi dialect, but it's really flattering!"

Qin Chuan said with a smile: "Speaking of which, your trick of "cultivating the plank road in the open and secretly crossing the Chen Cang" is really good. The man in black only cared about paying attention to the movements of his gang, but he didn't expect to kill halfway to bite the gold, I, the 'Shanxi guest', and you, the 'girl from Datong Mansion', came to take advantage of the fire to rob, how could he have expected it?"

Yi Wanyu smiled and said sideways: "When my father-in-law and I got into the 'Red Sleeve Move', it was to hunt down and kill several big bad guys who abducted and trafficked people, including Suzhou, Hangzhou, Chang'an, Taiyuan and other places. Among them, Ji Kun of Datong Mansion was the most vicious and cruel, destroying the daughters of many good families, and doing a lot of bad things in Shanxi and Henan, making people angry. Later, Ji Kun was blinded by his father-in-law, broke his hands and tendons, and threw him on the street to beg for a living. ”

The two talked about tomorrow's succession. Qin Chuan held her slender hand and said, "Shicai is in the 'Red Sleeve Move', and the words of the Sang Duo Master are all taught by you, right?"

Yi Wanyu slowly leaned on him and said with a smile: "Brother Chuan, since it is imperative for the Baixi Gang to take over the ceremony now, other matters will naturally be put aside for the time being." I asked Sister Sang to say this just to remind you to stop playing hide and seek with the Mantianyun gang. Instead of being manipulated by others, it is better to stay still and 'wait for the rabbit'. ”

Hearing this, Qin Chuan was exactly the same as Elder Qu's, nodded again and again, and thought, "With the two military advisors Yumei and Elder Qu here, tomorrow's matter will not be difficult!"

The third day of the third month of March is the Qingming Festival. In the early morning of this day, Qin Chuan got up and came out, only to see that the lights were hanging in front of the helmsman of the Baixi Gang, decorated with flowers, and there was a joyful atmosphere everywhere. All the elders, hall masters, helmsmen and others have already gathered in the hall, and everyone has changed into new clothes, so they will congratulate the helper first.

The front yard of the helmsman of the Baixi Gang is very lively, and waves of greeting guests are endless. The guests walked into the door, but they could hear bursts of suona sounds, gongs and drums, drummers blowing welcome music, and hundreds of operas to help the disciples put the cannon battle loud.

At the time of the card, the Hundred Opera Gang and the guests from all walks of life who came to watch the ceremony and congratulate counted 100 people, walked out of the north gate of Luoyang City, and surrounded Qinchuan by Xingxingtou, and went to the 'Hundred Flowers Valley' in Debi Mountain together.
