Chapter 110: The Girl in Red Part I
"And then." After listening to the other party's narration, Ye Yinfeng asked again.
"Later, and then there was no later." The fat Taoist priest replied calmly, and then sat on the wooden bench with his butt, and pressed the wooden bench into a "squeak" sound.
"What's gone, you should always know what the identity of the old man is, and the jade pendant of the Zhang family is really the legendary 'Jade of the Apocalypse', why do they want to cooperate with the remnants of the cult, won't the remnants of the cult spy on that jade pendant."
Ye Yinfeng then said: "And are there any other cult remnants in this Raozhou City, have they gone to find other cult remnants to cooperate, that old man's martial arts cultivation realm is so high, why didn't he go to Zhang's house to snatch the jade pendant, but to use some tricks from the sidelines." ”
Ye Yinfeng said all his questions in one breath, and then waited for the fat Taoist priest's answer.
Li Xiaoyao was asked a series of questions by the other party and had no chance to interject at all, and he came to his senses after the other party finished speaking, he looked at the other party with disdain and said: "Where did you kid come from such a question, let Ben Xiandao sort out his thoughts and then answer, I have asked so many questions in a row, which one do you ask me to answer." ”
"You answer slowly one by one, let's talk about the old man first." Ye Yinfeng was obviously very interested in the old man who could hurt the fat Taoist, he always thought that there were very few people in this martial arts who could hurt the other party, and there was one in this remote Raozhou, and the old man should still be seriously ill according to him.
"The old man didn't reveal his name, but I could probably guess some. There are basically very few sects in this martial arts that have such a pure and yang internal strength and mental method, and the old man's internal strength and true qi still have a trace of scorching breath. I think maybe this old man used the 'Burning Sun Palm' exercise, and there is only one place for people who know this exercise in this martial arts, that is, the first major gang in the Central Plains 'Shengyangmen', this 'Burning Sun Palm' is the family inheritance of the previous masters of the Shengyangmen, and it is never easily passed on to people with different surnames. Judging by the age of the old man, it should be the father of Fu Heng, the owner of the existing Shengyang Gate, Fu Aobei, who is known as the 'Gangyang Holy Hand' on the rivers and lakes. ”,
Li Xiaoyao said the guess in his heart, the "Ruyang Holy Hand" Fu Aobei and the "Tianluo Holy Hand" Shi Yinggong were praised by the people of the rivers and lakes as the "North and South Double Holy Hands", which refers to the north and south regions of the Central Plains. It is said that Nafu Aobei disappeared ten years ago and his whereabouts are unknown, and no one knows the specific reason. I didn't expect such a number one person to appear in this remote Raozhou City, and he is also a big person.
"Could it be that the injuries he suffered should be difficult to cure, so he thought of using the 'Jade of the Apocalypse' to cure his internal injuries, otherwise, with his martial arts master, he couldn't get any panacea, why would he go to this Raozhou City to get that jade pendant."
After listening to the fat Taoist's narration, Ye Yinfeng guessed by himself.
"Not necessarily, all the martial cultivators in the world know that this 'Jade of the Apocalypse' hides a major secret, and everyone can think of it. But there has never been anyone who has ever heard of anyone who really owns this jade pendant, so there are also people in the rivers and lakes who speculate that this 'jade of the apocalypse' is completely fictional. Its purpose is that people with ulterior motives will use this empty jade pendant to divide the martial arts cultivation world, so that the people in the martial arts cultivation world will continue to tear and kill it all year round. ”
"Since this is the case, then it is still inconclusive whether the jade pendant of this Zhang family is true or false. But the No. 1 sect in the Central Plains, 'Shengyangmen', is a well-known and upright sect in the rivers and lakes, why would Fu Aobei cooperate with the remnants of the cult, isn't this a trap for his own later life. ”
Ye Yinfeng raised another question, he felt that it was impossible for a decent martial artist to cooperate with a person from an evil sect, and some of them would tear each other apart like you and yourself.
"You still underestimate those old guys, there are no eternal enemies in this world, as long as they have common interests, then they may cooperate, and the purpose should be that jade pendant. They should want to use the remnants of the cult to implicate the Zhang family who can't hold the funeral as scheduled, and they are fortunate to do it in secret, but the Zhang family should hide the dragon and crouching tiger, and it may also be the jade pendant of the Zhang family, so their biggest purpose is to involve the cult people in that group. ”
Li Xiaoyao chuckled, very clear about this kind of trick in the rivers and lakes. This made Ye Yinfeng even more incomprehensible to this fat Taoist, why did he have so much experience in the rivers and lakes at a young age, and he himself said that he didn't stay by the side of that carefree man for long, could it be that he was only alone in this messy and difficult rivers and lakes, this is too incredible.
Regarding this, Ye Yinfeng didn't ask him, and the fat Taoist priest didn't say it, I don't know where he got such a lot of experience in the rivers and lakes. According to his own words, he didn't stay by Sanssouci's side for a long time, and where did his deep internal force cultivation come from. All this made Li Xiaoyao even more mysterious in Ye Yinfeng's eyes, and the fat Taoist priest was like wearing a thin veil. This made him feel that the more he got along with the other party, the more he knew, the more strange he became.
After the fat Taoist priest finished speaking, he happened to see Ye Yinfeng looking at him with strange eyes, he touched his face suspiciously, and found that there was nothing unusual on his face.
"Why are you looking at me like this," he asked the other party in confusion, how did he know what the other party was thinking at this time.
"Nothing, then what should we do next, continue to stay in this Raozhou, or rush to that Sanqing Mountain." Of course, Ye Yinfeng would not say what he thought in his heart, although this fat Taoist priest was dressed in a veil of mystery, he was really good to himself, and these two times thanks to his rescue, he had to escape the danger.
"Observe here for a few days first, I think that the man surnamed Fu Aobei and Na Lin will do it in the next two days, and then there will be a lively scene in this Raozhou City, I guess that the masters gathered in this Raozhou City will appear, and we can take advantage of the chaos to see if the jade pendant is really the so-called 'Jade of the Apocalypse'." I always feel that all this is not so simple, it seems that there is an invisible force manipulating, we should be cautious, and immediately slip away when it is not good. ”
Li Xiaoyao seemed to smell a hint of something bad, his idea coincided with Ye Yinfeng, both sides had such a premonition, it seemed that all this was not very simple.
Li Xiaoyao had been running around all morning and hadn't eaten lunch yet, but Ye Yinfeng had already eaten, so he had no choice but to ask the shopkeeper in the inn to ask for some food casually, and after gobbling it up, it was over.
After the meal, Li Xiaoyao breathed in the guest room for a while, and his internal injuries were alleviated, and there was no big problem.
The two men went out of the inn again and ran straight to the south of the city.
The two of them crossed several streets and came to a large courtyard of blue bricks and red tiles not far away, and they pretended to play, mingled with the crowd, and walked past the gate of the courtyard.
Ye Yinfeng and Li Xiaoyao walked on the bluestone-paved avenue in front of the courtyard, and he looked at the courtyard from time to time.
It turned out that the courtyard was the mansion of the richest man Zhang's family, and there were two big men standing at the gate of the courtyard, and some ordinary martial arts should be hired for the Zhang family as a courtyard.
The two big men were dressed in a blue satin silk warrior suit, their expressions were indifferent and solemn, and a pair of fine eyes looked at the crowd on the bluestone avenue in front of the courtyard from time to time. They looked like they were facing a great enemy, and they didn't seem to let strangers approach the gate of the courtyard easily.
The pedestrians on the bluestone avenue trembled when they walked to the gate, they were afraid that they would accidentally set themselves on fire and provoke the punishment of the people of the Zhang family, and they were all far away from the gate.
"This brother, what happened to the Zhang family, it made it like a great enemy, and everyone was so afraid of the people of the Zhang family." Li Xiaoyao suddenly grabbed a man with a burden not far from his side, and he asked softly.
The man who carried the burden was passing by the gate in fear, when suddenly he was pulled by a man, and his face was as gray as frightened, and when he saw the face of the man who pulled him, he breathed a sigh of relief.
I saw that it was a fat little Taoist priest who grabbed him, and he immediately put away the fear in his heart, and said to the other party in a low voice: "Ouch, this little Taoist leader, you are scared to death, it is inconvenient to speak here, I will wait for the front to go." ”
The man who carried the burden was dressed in coarse cloth, he should have been a pawn of a peddler near the local area, and the two large wooden boxes were tightly covered, and I don't know what was inside. In such a cold weather, fine beads of sweat oozed from the man's forehead, which showed that the burden was not light.
Ye Yinfeng followed Li Xiaoyao and the man to find a rock and sit down on the side of this bluestone avenue, where they were sitting diagonally opposite the main gate of the mansion.
The man laid down his burden, gently wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, looked around, and found that the people walking in the avenue did not pay attention to them.
"This Taoist, don't you know, the most Zhang Mansion is not good for the year, the old lady of the Zhang Mansion has just passed away some time ago, and he hasn't had time to be buried. I heard that last night, two guards in the Zhang Mansion were killed in the Yizhuang in the south of the city. made everyone in that Zhang Mansion in danger, thinking that an enemy had come to the door, so this Zhang Mansion was more heavily guarded, and this Zhang Mansion was not like this on weekdays. ”
The man explained to the two of them that he still looked at the people from time to time, looking afraid, he was afraid that if his words just now were heard by the people of the Zhang family, the consequences would be unimaginable.
This man is also an ordinary person, of course, he is afraid of offending the Zhang family, so he speaks very quietly, and he is cautious, for fear of being heard by the Zhang family.
"Is the deceased person of the Zhang family immortal buried, why does that Zhang Mansion seem to be completely untouched by a funeral." Ye Yinfeng asked another question.
"I don't know about this little one, it is said that this Zhang family has a lot of enemies, even if he is buried, it is estimated that no one will find a place to be buried. I heard that the Zhang family also invited the famous funeral master in Raozhou City to design the cemetery of the old lady Zhang, which was full of organs and danger. One is to prevent the enemies of the Zhang family from finding the cemetery, and the other is to prevent the tomb robbers from finding the cemetery. As for whether the bones of the old lady of the Zhang family were really buried, this small one is unknown. ”
The man replied tremblingly, and from time to time he looked at the two men in front of the gate of the mansion.
At this time, the two men guarding the gate of Zhang's Mansion turned their gaze to the place where they were sitting. The man suddenly turned pale with fright, he hurriedly picked up his burden, and left in a hurry without having time to say goodbye to Li Xiaoyao and the others.
Ye Yinfeng and the others saw that the man who carried the burden was frightened by the gaze of the person in the Zhang Mansion and left in a hurry, and they couldn't help but be stunned. The people in this Raozhou City are so afraid of the people of the Zhang Mansion, which shows how powerful this Zhang Mansion is in this Raozhou City, and the people of Raozhou have lived under the obscenity of the Zhang family for a long time, and they have a strong fear of the Zhang family in their hearts.
They were also speechless for a while, although they still didn't get the information they wanted, the man who carried the burden was already far away, and it was impossible to catch up and ask again, even if the other party knew some secrets and was frightened by this, he might not say anything.
Just as they were stunned, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves in front of them, from far to near.
Soon the figure of the man on the horse appeared before their eyes,
They saw a faint red shadow flickering in front of them, and when they saw it, they realized that the man on the horse was a girl dressed in red, riding a tall horse and speeding towards them.
The girl in red sat on the horseback like a red flame, her red cloak undulating in the wind, and a heroic temperament stood out.
For the sudden appearance of galloping horses, the pedestrians on the bluestone avenue obviously did not react, and everyone hurriedly dodged for a while.
Suddenly, the panicked voices of the people on this bluestone avenue were intertwined with the sound of the hurried galloping horses' hooves, and the crying and shouting on the bluestone avenue became chaotic.
