Chapter 226(1/2)

Li Xiancheng had rebelled, and Yinyang could no longer go back. After hearing Yuwen Tianlu's words, Li Qingcheng rode all the way back to Baima Town and met with the convoy. Baima Town was only a hundred miles away from Yinyang. It was originally a distribution center from Yinyang City to the Central Plains, with only a hundred troops garrisoned. If Yinyang troops attacked, they would be almost powerless.

The news of Yinyang rebellion and Ming Dynasty came, and Baima Town was in chaos.

Many business trips that had originally arrived in Yinyang hurriedly packed up their greetings, and did not care about their business, and were preparing to return to the Central Plains. Many shops were closed. Everyone cleaned up their fine and soft things and fled. They ran away. Within half a day, Baima Town almost became an empty city.

Mr. Kong led a convoy to wait for Zhao Langjiang and others here, but he waited for this result, his face looked very ugly. He accounted for nearly half of the 300,000 kilograms of grain. Originally, the journey of transporting grain this time was quite unsatisfactory, and he only wanted to get Yinyang. Even if the price was a little cheaper, it would be enough to ensure that he would not lose money. If something happened to Yinyang, he could save his life, which would be good.

Li Qingcheng told everyone about what happened in Yinyang City. Mr. Kong had no idea and asked, "Hiss Li, should you leave or stay? You have an idea."

After the battle of Reed Marsh, everyone already knew the identities of Li Qingcheng, Zhao Langjiang and others, and they did not have to hide it. At this moment, everyone looked at Li Qingcheng one after another.

Li Qingcheng said, "You may not know that although the bandits on Sifeng Mountain and the Skeleton Gang made a living by robbery on the surface, they were secretly private soldiers raised by Li Xiancheng. They still had room for maneuver before they broke up, but now they have no scruples. Not to mention whether they can transport the food back, even whether they can save their lives is a big deal."

Mr. Kong said, "Then let's stay here?"

Li Qingcheng nodded, "The terrain of Baima Town is high, with a backer on one side and water on the other side. There are still hundreds of troops stationed in the north and south, and it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. In comparison, staying is the best choice. If the enemy attacks, food may not be saved, but Li must try to save everyone's life!"

Most of these people are merchants. Most of them almost devoted their efforts to the family to trade grain this time. Some even borrowed money from outside. It was quite difficult to go along the way. Seeing that the success was not enough, there was still a trace of luck in their hearts. However, some of the temporary servants hired to leave the place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

For a moment, everyone was talking and it was difficult to unify their opinions.

In the end, Mr. Kong refused to say, "I agree to stay. If you want to go back, I don't force you to stay. I am familiar with this place. He has sent someone to ask Xiangjian County for help. It is not too late for us to withdraw after reinforcements arrive."

"Then we will lose our business!"

Mr. Kong said, "Destiny is important, or money is important?"

...

Zhaoyao Mountain is less than 300 miles away from Yinyang City. It is an extension mountain range north of the Hengduan Mountains. It has a dangerous terrain and there are cliffs on the mountain. If it weren't for martial arts, it would be extremely difficult for ordinary people to climb.

After leaving Yinyang, Yuwen Tianlu was not in a hurry to rush on the road. He stopped to rest every ten miles.

Xiao Jinyan rode a horse and walked side by side with him. He was also a little curious and took the rest halfway and asked, "If this continues, I won't be able to reach Zhaoyao Mountain in three or ten days. Li Xiancheng sent a killer to chase us. Why is the senior not in a hurry at all?"

Yuwen Tianlu said lightly, "Have you seen traveling around the mountains and rivers, but are you still in a hurry?"

Xiao Jinyan was speechless. He said angrily, "Do you want me to get a flag? It says that Yuwen Tianlu is here. He is seriously injured and wants to kill him quickly. If he expires, he will not wait?"

Yuwen Tianlu said, "Good idea!"

In the past half a day, although the pear blossom needle has been controlled, it is extremely itchy inside the meridians. He took off the wine bag, drank a sip of Chishui wine, and used his internal force to attract the power of the wine to suppress the pear blossom needle in his body. Then, he threw the wine bag to Xiao Jinyan.

Xiao Jinyan took it, and he was not in the mood to drink at this moment.

Yuwen Tianlu said, "Take a sip. Now, take a sip and take a sip and take a sip."

Xiao Jinyan asked in confusion, "I'm a little puzzled. Li Xiancheng is treason, you seem to be in a hurry at all?"

"It's not been a day or two for him to have this intention. What should I come sooner or later, so what's there to be anxious about."

"But now it's different. The Western Chu and Northern Zhou troops are waiting for the battle and are eyeing each other. If Li Xiancheng rebelled, wouldn't the Ming army be attacked from all sides? As the chief general, shouldn't you be in charge of the army?"

Yuwen Tianlu said for no reason, "I am more greedy for life and fear of death."

This reason cannot convince Xiao Jinyan. Yuwen Tianlu is known as the best master in the world. He has never seen any big battles over the years. Whether it is the assassination of the rivers and lakes or the open and secret struggles in the temple, he is safe and sound. If he is killed by a Yinyang City Lord in the end, that would be the biggest joke.

But the facts are right in front of you.

Yuwen Tianlu was not only seriously injured, but also took risks. If a few ordinary Tongxiang masters came at this moment, Xiao Jinyan might not be able to do anything. Yuwen Tianlu has always claimed to be completely clear, so how could he take such a risk this time?

Xiao Jinyan couldn't figure it out.

"Are we really looking for the martial arts scriptures?"

Since the south of the Yangtze River, there have been rumors in the world that Xiao Jinyan was responsible for the whereabouts of the Wu Jing, and I don’t know who released the news. As a result, it caused endless trouble for Xiao Jinyan. It was also since then that his good days of being free and easy in Suzhou have come to an end.

Yuwen Tianlu asked without answering, "Have you ever thought about the joy you have lived in Jiangnan over the years, gnawing on the bark of the tree when you have nothing to do, and going to find Jindao Li Qiuyi to drink wine, but suddenly got involved in the disputes in the world. Who has prompted your trip to the west?"

Xiao Jinyan said, "It's my own decision."

"Of course, you made the decision by yourself, but the various factors that made the decision can be controlled by humans. There is also the Wang Banxian who has been dormant for more than 20 years after he came down from Shujian Mountain. Even those sword cultivators searched the entire continent and could not find him. Why did they suddenly become high-profile? Have you ever thought about it?"

Xiao Jinyan was silent.

Since Li Jinghong disappeared, he searched for several years but failed, he has lived in seclusion in Suzhou and lived a life of peace with everything. He will not go home to inherit the wealth of his family if he doesn't practice martial arts like Li Qingcheng. He will not be obsessed with swords and Taoism, just like Zhao Langjiang, who is obsessed with killing Yuwen Tianlu and avenge his family.

Whether walking in the world or living in seclusion in the world, it is a kind of experience in the world for him.

When he first entered the world, Li Chuntie once said to him, "If you enter the world, this world is yours." He also said, "If you want to play, play whatever you want. Don't be afraid of causing trouble. Dengwenyuan will take care of you." But over the years, Li Chuntie has only fulfilled the first half of this sentence.

Come to Yin Yang?

Whether it is with your brothers or untie your knot, after hearing what Yuwen Tianlu said, he felt that there seemed to be an invisible force that was driving all this behind the scenes.

Is it Wang Banxian who is both a teacher and a friend?

Or senior brother Li Chuntie?

He didn't know, but Yuwen Tianlu's words reminded him that no matter what, he could not be as irresponsible as before. Thinking of this, his eyes became firm.

Yuwen Tianlu said, "Did you figure it out?"

"I figured it out."

"Are you ready?"

“It’s ready.”

Yuwen Tianlu said, "No, you are not ready. The one on Shujian Mountain is not an ordinary person. Although I know them quite well, with your previous strength, even a watchdog in their family can't beat them. If you don't know, you will only increase your worries."

Xiao Jinyan was stunned when he heard this, "I mean, I'm ready to marry your daughter."

Yuwen Tianlu said, "Speak seriously!"

Xiao Jinyan said, "I want to marry your daughter!"

Yuwen Tianlu cursed in his heart, and it turned out that it was in vain for a long time. He raised his hand and raised it, and remembered that he could not use his internal strength. Otherwise, Xiao Jinyan had already rolled down the hillside, and he said angrily, "I want to marry my daughter, and I want to make my martial arts work to Tongxiang."

"Senior, are you from Kanto?"

"Calm down, hurry up and drink some wine and prepare to start construction."

Xiao Jinyan wondered, "Business started?"

Yuwen Tianlu looked ahead and said, "One Tongxiang Chu Realm, two Zhixuan Shang Realm, and five Zhixuan Chu Realm. These days, are all cats and dogs here to join in the fun?"

It took about half a mile to go.

On the mountain road, eight white horses were lying in the middle of the road. The horseman was wearing soft armor. Seeing that he was not dressed as a person from the four guards of dragon, tiger, leopard, wolf, and others, Xiao Jinyan had guessed that these were the masters of the martial arts world that Li Xiancheng secretly recruited.

The person in the head had a pale face, his eyes narrowed, and he didn't wake up. He looked like a scholar with no power to tie a chicken. He held a red tassel spear and did not look like a martial artsman, but from the murderous intent that occasionally appeared in his eyes, Xiao Jinyan felt that this person was definitely not simple.

Yuwen Tianlu smiled and said, "The White-faced Gun God Gongsun lost?"

The white-faced scholar said coldly, "My name is Gongsun Shu!"

"Is there any difference?" Yu Wen Tianlu showed disdain and said to Xiao Jinyan, "This Mr. Gongsun was ranked third on the Tianlist twenty years ago. He came to Yinyang City to challenge Li Jindao, the second-ranked Li Jindao. Do you know how many stabs he took?"

Xiao Jinyan shook his head and said he didn't know.

Yuwen Tianlu smiled and said, "Give you three chances, guess."

"Ten Knives?"

Yuwen Tianlu shook his head, "There are too many."

"Five Knife?"

“There are too many.”

Yuwen Tianlu raised a finger.

Xiao Jinyan said strangely, "Is it a knife?"

Yuwen Tianlu still shook his head, "No, it's a word."

Gongsun Shu was revealed to her old state, and her originally pale face turned red.

"What word?"

"roll!"

Xiao Jinyan said, "Although you are a senior, it is still immoral to curse people."

Yuwen Tianlu still shook his head and explained, "The third and second in the Tianlist, but Li Qiuyi didn't draw his sword. He said the word "get out" and knocked him down to the city. Since then, this person has disappeared from the world, but he did not expect that he would hide in Yinyang City. Gongsun Shu, how does it feel to be a dog?"

Gongsun Shu said angrily, "Enough!"

The red tassel spear pointed at Yuwen Tianlu diagonally and said, "Grandmaster, our city lord wants to borrow the same thing as you."

"What?"

"The city lord wants to lend you the head of your neck to offer wine to the Yinyang Dynasty!"

If it were usual, he would not dare to give Gongsun Shu ten thousand courage, but at this time Yuwen Tianlu cut off his arm, his true energy was disordered, and although he didn't know who he was, his martial arts were not worth mentioning, he would have confidence.

Yuwen Tianlu ignored him, smiled and asked Xiao Jinyan, "Do you know why Gongsun Sai is called the White-Faced Gun God?"

Xiao Jinyan shook his head.

"He has natural defects in his meridians, and the second meridians of the Chongying belt are thinner than ordinary people. When the true qi moves here, it will stagnate. It is not important to encounter ordinary people in the martial arts world. If he encounters an opponent with a good drum, this defect will be infinitely amplified. Li Jindao saw this point back then and shouted, breaking his second meridians of the Chongying belt."

Xiao Jinyan understood it.
