MTL - Zhui Xu-v6 Chapter 6 Dajiang Geba U-turn East (5)

It was just nightfall, and the courtyards not far from the New Tiger Palace were full of flames. Groups of guards came and went in the nearby streets and courtyards with torches, knives and guns.

"Heavenly Knife" Tan Zheng walked into the courtyard, met with Wang Nanda who was already here, and then bowed to the figure coming out of the courtyard more respectfully: "Holy Master, you are here!" .”

"Oh, Tan Zheng." It was the huge Lin Zongwu who came out of it. "It didn't come too late. It seems that the outside world said that you take good care of this nephew, and what you said is true."

Tan Zheng bowed slightly: "I discussed boxing with Li Ruoque back then, which was of great benefit to me in the way of the sword, but what about the holy leader..."

"It just happened to be in this fight, so I rushed over from there." Lin Zongwu smiled, "When I came over, the assassin ran away, but looking at his body skills, I asked Yanfeng how he fought him. Passing by, it is very similar to the monk who swallowed clouds back then. Hehe, without the encumbrance of the iron armor, Zhou Tong couldn't catch up, and I didn't catch up either."

Speaking of this, Lin Zongwu paused for a moment, and then said: "Oh, Yanfeng is fine, Tunyun made an assassination attempt, intentionally and unintentionally, he only suffered some minor injuries, it is considered fatal... You go in and see him, Young man, a little setback is a good thing, I think he will have some achievements in the future."

After receiving Lin Zongwu's comments, Tan Zheng bowed his hands and said goodbye. There are also two courtyards here. The innermost courtyard has bamboo forests and rocks. At this time, many bamboos were dumped on the ground, some were cut off by blades, and some were broken by sticks. It was obvious that they had experienced a fierce battle. fight. Li Yanfeng was sitting by the pond with a rockery with his upper body bare. His upper body was already wrapped in bandages, and it looked like he was injured on his shoulder or back.

It's good for young people to have some setbacks, but the Monkey King has experienced a lot of setbacks in Jiangning recently.

The incident started from the fight on the Golden Street. Monk Tunyun killed Liu Guangshi's envoy, Gu Anhe, and then caused chaos on the long street. At first Li Yanfeng showed his skills on the long street, but later he found some suspicious people. Chasing all the way, after the fight, the injury was not serious, but it was quite embarrassing.

He then took advantage of the Jinjie incident to get mad at Meng Zhuotao. Xu Zhaonan had no choice but to come out as a peacemaker and promised Li Yanfeng a lot of compensation. It got the biggest benefit.

It's just that a few days later, Meng Zhutao took the initiative to ask Li Yanfeng to fight in a party. At this time, Li Yanfeng was only in his thirties, and it was said that his monkey boxing kung fu was outstanding. Facing Meng Zhutao, who still had an injury on his shoulder, he naturally didn't intend to retreat. Negative, this is the second injury.

A few days later, he participated in the assassination of Shi Baofeng's second son, Shi Weiyang. It is said that he met a master from the southwest on the spot. But in more information, it is said that the man is good at the Thirteen Taibao's horizontal training of the golden bell, so it is hard to say that he took advantage of this fight. This is the third injury.

Afterwards, on the evening of September 16th, it seemed that Monk Tunyun suddenly came to kill him. Li Yanfeng reacted quickly and swung his stick to fight back. Another assassination ended with Li Yanfeng being slightly injured.

It is common for people in the green forest to lick blood, and it is common for them to be injured in martial arts competitions. However, Li Yanfeng is different from ordinary green forest fighters. This is a man of great importance in this troubled world, and because of this, among the younger generation of Manichaeans who came to Jiangning this time, Tan Zheng paid him the most attention.

But no one knows what kind of Tai Sui was committed. In just twenty days, he was beaten four times in a row-in Jiangning City today, the green forest masters who can beat Li Yanfeng are already regarded as this one. The top group of people in the game, like him Tan Zheng, shouldn't be shot easily, but every time he is injured, he is so inexplicable that Tan Zheng feels a little complicated when he looks at it at this moment.

Of course, it's impossible to express these emotions right now, and it's just that someone recited them. He has a wealth of experience in life, and it's not like he hasn't seen them before. For example, among the undead guards, there was a vice-captain who had followed him before. Recently, he heard that his nose was beaten twice and he had to apply medicine every day. It was very miserable. So what? The first time your nose is injured, and when you meet an enemy again, they will treat it as a weakness and hit you accordingly. It sounds bad, but it is actually normal in fighting.

Putting aside the boring thoughts in his mind, he looked close to the edge of the bamboo forest for a while, and then he also discovered the damage caused by the third weapon besides the knife and the stick.

"Liuyun Iron Sleeve... This really looks like the kung fu of Monk Swallowing Clouds. Does he hide a knife in his sleeve?"

Tan Zheng turned around, but Li Yanfeng had already got up and walked over. He was handsome and tall, and his body, which had been practicing martial arts all the year round, was as hard as a knife and an axe. Not the slightest feeling of depression.

"Hiding a dagger in his sleeve, he looks like the same person as that day in Jinlou... His body skills are really powerful."

Tan Zheng nodded: "There are only a few people in the world who can escape from the leader."

"I heard that Uncle Zheng had some contacts with him back then?"

"He is a lonely ghost, a master of the evil faction who is running around. When he was in the Central Plains, he met him several times, but he was not familiar with him. He was also on the scene when Zhu Xianzhen killed Qin Yuyuan, and later escaped. This person has a bad reputation, and the leader doesn't like it..." Tan Zheng shook his head, only briefly explained the matter, and then frowned slightly, "It's strange, it is said that Tunyun was assassinated by Wu Qimei and others this time Gu'anhe, destroying the alliance between Liu Guangshi and everyone is still reasonable. But Gu'anhe is dead, and he doesn't seek trouble with other missions. What is the intention of coming here to kill you? Could it be General Liu's personal enmity with someone? ?”

When the Jinlou incident happened, everyone said that Wu Qimei invited experts to come over to make trouble, and they didn't want the fair party meeting to go smoothly. This is a reasonable guess. But up to now, the envoys sent by Wu Qimei and Tie Yan have disappeared, and there are rumors in the market that they have been killed in secret. Looking back, could it be that this incident turned into a misunderstanding?

Tan Zheng frowned, and Li Yanfeng beside him was even more quick-witted. He might have thought of this, but he just shook his head at this moment: "In Jiangning City, this is not the only thing that people can't figure out."

Tan Zheng turned his head: "Nephew Xian refers to..."

Li Yanfeng raised his eyebrows: "Uncle Zheng can understand how the situation in this city will end?"

In the nearby courtyard, groups of soldiers and guards were searching in all directions because of the assassination of the Monkey King. Even in the darkness of night, it has become more and more clear.

Since September 13th, after Fair King He Wen was assassinated, the situation in the entire Jiangning city has become turbulent again, and even in just three days, it has returned to or even surpassed the most chaotic situation a month or two ago .

A flame ignited by the small introduction of the reading club began to burn into a big fire in a short time.

After nearly two years of barbaric development, Jiang Ning's five-party gathering was originally for the purpose of discussing matters and making alliances.

However, the five kings who are the leaders of the FAIR Party—headed by He Wen—suddenly seemed to have a brain twitch, and refused to make concessions on this matter, and then no one planned to compromise and intensified the conflict. If Shi Baofeng and other four great kings publicly issued orders to arrest the members of the book club, they were dealing with their own "internal affairs", and on September 12th, He Wen recklessly issued a fair king's order not to allow indiscriminate killings to the remaining four people's territory. It is a declaration of war that directly tears the face and **** on the heads of other people.

At this time, if someone can mediate and give in to each other, the matter can still be discussed, and everything will remain within the scope of political temptation. However, on September 13th, the assassination in the street seemed to mean that the fuse had reached the powder keg.

In that assassination operation, He Wen, who had been prepared for a long time, was not injured, but mobilized the already arranged personnel to carry out a large-scale siege and massacre of dozens of assassins. The fight between the two sides on the long street was tragic. . And on September 14th, Wei Wenwen, the "Heavenly Killer" under the lunatic Zhou Shang, was the first to send people to invade a street where the banner of the King of Fairness was hung. At that time, Wei Wenwen started a fierce fight with the other party on the grounds that "I didn't like you a long time ago".

Shi Baofeng and Xu Zhaonan launched an attack immediately.

Due to the land grabbing behavior in the past few months, the various lands in the city are already intertwined with each other, and they are also full of personal grievances. Under the several great kings, the nominal lands are different from direct and borrowed names. At that time, it was because of He Wen's progress that the other four great kings cooperated with his actions and restrained themselves. After many direct-connected territories calmed down, various small forces that borrowed their names did not dare to move around anymore, so the previous half a month was peaceful. .

At this moment, the five great kings tore their faces, and the powder keg exploded again.

In the city, Shi Baofeng, Zhou Shang, and Xu Zhaonan made the most moves, causing groups of people under them to clash with He Wen's forces. Yi's actions turned out to be one-sided. In the round after round of fighting for territory, the two sides seemed to be evenly matched.

This is because compared to the situation in the whole south of the Yangtze River, Jiangning is still just a sand table for recreation at this time. As the trend of the confrontation between the five great kings gradually became clear, the orders issued by Jiang Ning, in addition to the confrontation of hunting or not killing the members of the reading club, there were also successive rounds of military orders. The confrontation involved in these military orders , the effect will only appear after ten days or even more than half a month.

When verbal negotiations on the table cannot be negotiated, local fighting off the table is also a means of showing their attitude. At the same time, large-scale military deterrence is also an important bargaining chip in the game.

These are a delicate and strange few days.

On September 15th, at the same time when the fighting in the city became fierce, the originally scheduled fair party meeting was held as usual, except for the five kings who did not attend, such as Chen Juefang, Ru Tan Zheng, Ru Fu Pingbo, Ru Senior members such as Wei Yanwen and Jin Yongsheng all gathered together without a single person, and started discussions and scolding for nearly a day.

After quarreling on the surface, the situation of inquiring about each other's news in private is also the most frequent.

Li Yanfeng's confusion has its own reasons.

This round of his assassination was just the most inconspicuous incident in the chaotic situation in the city in recent days, and even Tan Zheng, who has followed Xu Zhaonan for some time, is a little uncertain at the moment direction of the situation.

At first glance, it seems that Shi Baofeng and the other four are forcing He Wen to submit to the book club, but He Wen is so determined to fight, does he really have no chips in his hands?

Judging from the private news, the most vivid statement is that He Wen has teamed up with one or two of the four great kings, and plans to eliminate two or three of them at once.

Xu Gong seems to be on the opposite side of He Wen, but in fact, will he suddenly turn against him when things come to an end? It is said that He Wen once told him the invitation of "Let's do it together".

The round of assassination on Long Street on September 13th was said to be done by Gao Chang, which also fits his straightforward personality. But in other rumors, Gao Chang is always the most likely person to go with He Wen.

Shi Baofeng and He Wen have known each other for a long time. King Equality is now powerful and rich in supplies. He Wen expressed his opinion, and then the matter developed directly to this point, could it be that they set up a game in private?

Including Zhou Shang, no one likes this lunatic. People once thought that he was the one who would be hit four times one. Now even if it becomes He Wen, is he worthy of trust? Even if he didn't join forces with He Wen, it's not a strange prospect to backstab his companions when things come to an end.

In the final analysis, the confusion in people's hearts these days will actually be attributed to one problem: the five factions of the Fair Party have different styles. If He Wen hadn't united the other several factions, leaving aside the power of the four after He Wen, they could really be combined. one share?

What kind of compromise should be made between each other? What kind of tacit understanding should be maintained? In this process, how many changes will occur?

People wouldn't naively think that the four teams would be able to defeat He Wen smoothly. It was more likely that in the middle of the fight, everyone might start a scuffle fighting against each other.

This meeting suddenly became like this, which was beyond everyone's expectations, but at the same time, if we can truly see the future direction clearly, this is also an opportunity for everyone to obtain the greatest benefit. This matter is very important to Tan Zheng. This is the case, and it is even more so for Li Yanfeng and others who came here on behalf of other forces.

The two stood by the bamboo forest and chatted for a while. Li Yanfeng didn't mention why Tunyun came to assassinate, and Tan Zheng didn't say much about it. After talking about Xu Zhaonan, they brought up the book club. He Wen really believed in the book club. ? Did Southwest really intervene here? As Tan Zheng and Li Yanfeng walked outside, they said a few words about their opponents that day.

"Black Iron God" Qiu Shuyan, this is the apprentice of Ning Yi's concubine with the highest martial arts skills. In fact, he is also equivalent to "Heart Demon" Ning Yi's personal disciple. If he does arrive, the nature of the whole matter will really change. completely different.

"I'm not completely sure..." Tan Zheng said seriously, and Li Yanfeng became cautious, "After all, it's my first time fighting this person."

"Did the holy leader ask about this just now?" Tan Zheng said.

Li Yanfeng nodded: "It was Mr. Wang who came to ask for the first time, but just now, the old man Sheng Jiaozhu helped me, but he didn't say anything about it."

Tan Zheng nodded, and was silent for a moment: "The confrontation with the inner demon is a private knot of the Holy Hierarch."

Li Yanfeng looked at him: "I heard that the two of them have never fought against each other."

"I have been following the holy leader for a short time, and I have never seen Ning Yi's skills with my own eyes." Tan Zhengdao, "But back then in Luliang Mountain, there was a round of open and covert struggles. Later in Zhuxian Town, the demons brought together When the army came, it must have been fought at that time. In that battle...in the end, I, the master of the previous generation of the Great Bright Sect, was completely injured."

Regarding this matter, Tan Zheng didn't say much. That time was also the death battle of the previous Monkey King Li Ruoque, so Li Yanfeng didn't need to mention it.

He whispered: "Actually, there have always been two theories in the world, and there are also those who say that Ning Yi, the heart demon, actually doesn't understand martial arts."

"This statement has been circulated for a long time, and it has been spread by rumors, and it is becoming more and more vivid now." Tan Zheng smiled, "People say that the heart demon does not understand martial arts because he started to manage military affairs in his early years and did not take many shots. But if you pursue Back then, I should have known that Ning Yi had another bandit name before the nickname 'Heart Demon', and it was called 'Blood Hand Rentu'. Just think about it, how many people had to be killed, how cruel, Only then can we have such a nickname full of evil spirits? In the green forest, there are wrong names, but there will be no wrong nicknames. What's more, over the years, we have mentioned the rumors about Ning Yi with the holy leader, and he always Smile without saying a word, why? You have to know that the Holy Hierarch seldom talks about Zhou Tong with others..."

When Tan Zheng said this, Li Yanfeng understood and nodded: "I heard that the Holy Hierarch asked Grandmaster Zhou to fight, but Grandmaster Zhou never took up the challenge. Later, Grandmaster Zhou stabbed Nianhan to death...The Holy Hierarch respects him."

"He and the demons are the same. In the early years, the Great Brightness Sect had conflicts with the demons. We were at a disadvantage on several occasions, but the two are both masters of the world, so there may not be no sense of sympathy for each other. These years, the holy leader has gone north. Anti-gold is also taking the same path as the Southwest... But if the people from the black flag really come to Jiangning this time, the Holy Hierarch may have to consider the matter of confronting these juniors, and his mind is actually more complicated."

When Tan Zheng and Li Yanfeng talked about these intimate matters, their slightly white-haired faces smiled and became closer. Li Yanfeng thought for a while, and his eyes were firm: "But my father died at the hands of the black flag. If there is a chance, I will not let that demon go."

"There is a chance." Tan Zheng patted Li Yanfeng's uninjured shoulder, "The holy master will not let him go, I think, the world will be peaceful in the future, and there will be a battle between the masters."

The two chatted about these things from the study session, and then Tan Zheng asked Li Yanfeng to go back to rest, and turned to leave. After leaving this courtyard, after walking not far away, they also saw Meng Zhutao appearing from a nearby courtyard and getting ready to get into the carriage. The two greeted each other, and after realizing that there was nothing important to each other, Tan Zheng said: " Let's go together?"

Meng Zhuotao nodded in response, and walked forward, letting the carriage follow behind: "Gong Tan came out from the Monkey King? I heard he was beaten again?"

"The Holy Hierarch was there before, but he failed to keep the assassin behind. The one who attacked was like Monk Tunyun." Tan Zhengdao, "If I didn't know Brother Meng's character, I would almost have guessed that it was Brother Meng who was beaten twice later. A murderer hired by money, in this way, Tunyun takes money to do things, and it makes sense."

Meng Zhutao smiled. He has a bold temperament. When Li Yanfeng was displeased, he would hit him on the spot, but he didn't bother to explain the others: "...Why did Tunyun kill him?"

"From my point of view, there are three possibilities. Either, Monk Tunyun was not invited by Wu Qimei and others...he was invited by Liu Guangshi's opponent. Of course, this matter is quite big, so I don't want to speculate."

"The group of people sent by Wu Qimei are really unlucky... What's the second possibility?"

"Tunyun collects money to do business, and the person whom Nephew Li Xian has offended invites him. This is another deal. Then this matter is much simpler."

"It's not surprising that young people offend many people." Meng Zhuotao said calmly, "What about the third possibility?"

"It's almost the same as the second one. He offended Tunyun in private. For some reason, he refused to say that Tunyun has to do him. It is also possible. Li Xian is a very thoughtful person, and occasionally has reservations." , let's guess and guess, but there is no evidence..."

Monk Swallowing Cloud's move to assassinate Li Yanfeng, if you look carefully, there are actually many possibilities. When Li Yanfeng talked about the situation in the city, he diverted the topic at will, and Tan Zheng followed him to say something. In fact, he is old and mature, so why can't he understand Li Yanfeng's little thoughts, but he sighed slightly at this moment.

Meng Zhutao just smiled: "Young people in their early thirties, with smooth sailing, taking advantage of the opportunity to open up a new territory, it's not surprising that they like to put their smarts on their faces." He said, "It's good to suffer a little bit in the future."

Tan Zheng also smiled, and the two walked along the street. In the night ahead, there was another commotion caused by a fight. Meng Zhuotao raised his eyebrows: "Wei Yanwen is taking advantage of the chaos to take revenge again."

Tan Zheng sighed: "Brother Meng, tell me, will our side really fight He Wen?"

Meng Zhuotao thought for a while, then he looked ahead: "Brother Tan... Tell me, He Wen is real... Do you want to go the way of the reading club?"

The long street spreads under the darkness of night, and the city in front of it is filled with fireworks, creating a gloomy and chaotic scene.

With the help of the slogan put forward by Southwest, the Fair Party started because of He Wen, and because of this, it expanded rapidly. Regarding this fierce struggle, people would say that He Wen's family may not be able to beat the other four. However, at the moment when Southwest's theory spread along with his undoubtedly strong record, after leaving the banner of He Wen and Fairness and the name of Southwest, can the behemoth of the Fairness Party really continue smoothly?

At this moment, this is the doubt that many people in the night are facing.

…

At the same time, the new Tiger Palace.

After dealing with Li Yanfeng's affairs and returning here, Xu Zhaonan came to see him.

The two sides sat and drank tea, and after breaking up with He Wen for three days, they seemed to have thought about the whole issue carefully. Xu Zhaonan, who came over this time, also had an extremely serious expression hidden in his seemingly chatty words.

Lin Zongwu finished chatting with him about Li Yanfeng easily, and when Xu Zhaonan sat upright and began to bow his hands, Lin Zongwu smiled slightly: "Mr. Xu, but it's okay to say."

"Zhaonan is guilty." Xu Zhaonan bowed his hands and remained silent for a long time, "This time... get rid of Mr. Wang and go north to ask the Holy Master to come out of the mountain, in order to use the teachings of the Holy Master on the battlefield. Because after the Southwest War, the Huaxia Army Soldiers, with the help of Grandmaster Zhou's training method, everyone can be a scout when fighting in a small team. If this matter is not resolved, it will be difficult for us to fight against any of them in the future. In fact, among the five factions of the Fair Party, our side has the most experts. They have rebellious temperaments and are not easy to control on the battlefield, so one is to train them with the wisdom of the Holy Sect Master, and to use the prestige of the Sacred Sect Master to suppress them..."

"UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com originally thought that the five parties would work together for this fair party meeting, and that it would be smooth and stable, and then they could train with all their strength. Who knew that He Wen would be moody, suddenly turn against each other, and go against the law... If there is a fight outside, we will In fact, I am not afraid, but there is one thing. Now that He Wen is using tiger skin as a big banner, people who call him a black flag have arrived and are on their side... If this is the case, we have to make preparations early. And if the confrontation really starts, there are not many of us here who can overwhelm the black flag with majesty..."

Xu Zhaonan stated his thoughts slowly and carefully, Lin Zongwu put down his teacup, his expression was calm, not surprised. What comes to mind is the confrontation with Black Flag over the years—in fact, the confrontation has long since ceased, and even the glimpse at Jindi back then is no longer a confrontation...

He said the teacup turned a bit.

"Ning Yi is very powerful in confrontation on the battlefield and private management."

he said.

"Xu Gong...has he really decided not to cooperate with He Wen?"

The autumn wind is bleak, and the stars outside the window are few and far between. Many people will gradually come to a fork in their fate.
