"Did the people who sent it come back?"

Fang Zhen had a gloomy face, he was talking to a man with an eagle face, it was the master of the three Yunqi Halls in the Cao Gang who entered the water Jiao Lei Chong, the Cao Gang was divided into three halls and the eighteen rudders, the Cloud Flag Hall was the hall of the Cao Gang's conquest, and the other two halls were the Eagle Banner Hall and the Punishment Hall, as the name suggests, was to maintain the precepts in the gang, and all the gangs who violated the precepts in the gang had to be dealt with by the Torture Hall; the Eagle Banner Hall was responsible for the distant investigation and sentinel detection; the outer eighteen rudders were the rudders of the Cao Gang scattered in various places, these rudders were scattered in the important wharves from Jiangnan to Youzhou, and there were incense halls under the rudders, and the entire Cao Gang was tightly organized。

"Not yet. ”

The reply was Shen Yi, the helmsman of the imperial capital, these two people went to the official mansion with Fang Zhen yesterday, and came back together today, after learning about yesterday's incident, the two of them blew up at that time, and Shen Yi immediately sent people around to find the traces of the fallen horse.

Fang Zhen didn't get angry, because he didn't have the energy to get angry.

A series of events in the past few days have made Fang Zhen feel irritable, especially yesterday, the imperial court suddenly announced that Cao Yun will be re-selected next spring, this news is too sudden, even the prince doesn't know about it, and there is no news coming, which makes him very frightened.

Cao Yun is the foundation of the Cao Gang, which is related to the life and death of the Cao Gang, once the court hands over the Cao Yun to others, the livelihood of tens of thousands of people in the gang will be threatened.

There were many fellow Jianghu people who came to attend the funeral, and these Jianghu colleagues were very enthusiastic, but Fang Zhen didn't dare to fully believe them, even if he was half-sang, it was the same.

However, Fang Zhen knew very well that he had to find the fallen horse and teach them a lesson, otherwise this matter would spread, and the Cao Gang's face in the rivers and lakes would be lost, and his own prestige would also be seriously hit.

"Two small nights, ringworm scabies, no big deal. The middle-aged man sitting under Fang Zhen said, this middle-aged man has slightly white skin and a handful of goatee, it is Master Liu who went to Liu Han's mansion to deliver the letter, his expression is not so angry at this moment, but his brows are furrowed, and he looks worried.

"Now the top priority is to find out the intentions of the imperial court, help the master, or go find Pan Gongzi, and meet the Taishi Pan Lian through Pan Gongzi, Pan Lian is the Taishi, and he is in charge of Shangshutai, so he naturally knows the true intentions of the imperial court. ”

"These gatekeepers are like a swarm of flies, they come when there is good, and they hide far away when there is trouble. Shen Yi scolded resentfully, he had dealt with these scholars in the imperial capital the most, and he suffered a lot.

Fang Zhen actually realized that he was on the wrong side, so he had a lot of dealings with Pan Jin, the second son of the Pan family, recently, and gave Pan Jin a lot of benefits, hoping to meet the Taishi Pan Lian through Pan Jin, and then apologize to the above and admit his mistake.

But Pan Jin promised very well, but he never took action, which made Fang Zhen anxious and angry, but there was nothing he could do.

"There is another thing, if the imperial court wants to find another gang to transport grain, who will he find?" Chief Xiong asked with some puzzlement, in his opinion, there are no gangs in the rivers and lakes that have stronger water transportation capabilities than the Cao Gang, and secondly, who dares to take this job?

No matter who takes this job, they will face the crazy revenge of the Cao Gang, the ship is sunk and the cargo is destroyed, which is quite light, besides, although the Cao Gang has offended the current emperor, there are so many magistrates along the way, and there are no less than 100 friends with the Cao Gang, and if the Cao Gang wants to retaliate, they must be protected by these magistrates.

Master Liu rolled his eyes at him, looked at him like an idiot, and then looked at Fang Zhen's gaze the same, knowing that he had said something stupid, so he quickly shut up.

"Alas, there are more big families with boats in the south of the Yangtze River, even if one is not good, the imperial court can hire a few more, besides, Yanzhou has Luoma Water Village, Jiangnan Taihu Lake has the Chu family's qinjia, Yangzhou has the Salt Gang, and the Yangtze River also has the Boat Gang, all of which have the ability to transport. ”

Master Liu still kindly explained, which can be regarded as relieving the siege of Chief Xiong, and Chief Xiong nodded at him gratefully.

"We can't sit still, hum," Fang Zhen made up his mind, and immediately attracted everyone's attention: "Prepare with both hands, I will stay in the capital and see if I can persuade the imperial court to change its mind; ”

"Helper!" Master Liu was shocked.

"The tiger is not powerful, when I am a sick cat," Fang Zhen showed a ruthless look, Lei Zhong and Shen Yi were greatly excited, Fang Zhen stood up and looked at everyone proudly: "Our Cao Gang is going to pass the difficulty, since the fallen horse is sent to the door, then take him to the knife!"

As soon as Fang Zhen's words fell, Master Liu hurriedly dissuaded: "Don't help the master!"

"What's not to do! Fall off the horse and come to the door to insult me, the same people in the rivers and lakes see it in person, take them under the knife, and it is bright!" Lei roared like thunder.

Master Liu still shook his head: "Helper, Lei Hall Master, the court is eyeing us, we are now at war with the fallen horse, just to give the court the truth, helper, think twice!"

"No need," Fang Zhen was very resolute: "The imperial court has always cared about vendettas in the rivers and lakes, besides, this time it is a provocation between the fallen horses and the two sides, we must fight back, we must resolutely fight back!"

Master Liu immediately understood, Fang Zhen was killing chickens to show the monkey, he had already realized that this time was not small, and the Pan family might not be able to say it, so make two preparations, one completely defeated the Luoma Water Village, deterred the people in the rivers and lakes, and made them dare not take Cao Yun easily, and the other also showed his strength to the court, telling the court that without my Cao Gang, your Cao Yun would not be smooth.

Master Liu thought of these cold hairs on his back, and cold sweat flowed down his back.

After Fang Zhen finished his instructions, he took the lead out of the small living room, and when he arrived at the front yard, Bansang Dao Chang and other fellow Jianghu were still there, Fang Zhen walked into the living room steadily, stood in the middle of the living room, and thanked him in all directions.

"Brother Confucius, thank you for coming. ”

"There, there, Brother Fang, have you found the murderer?" Bansang Dao asked loudly, and Wu Xun, a master of the Quick Knife Hall, also clenched his fists and said loudly: "Gang Master Fang, if you have a place for the little brother, please just give orders!

Qin Wanqing of Suyimen said gently: "Fang Gang Master, I am also willing to do my best!"

"Thank you! Thank you all the old man," Fang Zhen thanked them one by one, and then raised his head and said: "The murderer of Brother Confucius has found clues, and he is somewhat involved in the Luoma Lake Luoma Water Village, the old man discussed with his colleagues in the gang, and decided to issue a long river order, telling the same people in the rivers and lakes, from today on, there is no other me, my Cao gang and the fallen horse will never coexist!"

Fang Zhen's voice was loud, spreading throughout the hall and outside, the Cao Gang members were all excited, and the Bansang Daoist and the others had serious and awe-inspiring faces.

Only Master Liu's face was pale, his forehead was sweating, he knew that he couldn't stop it, he had been Fang Zhen's master for so many years, and he knew the way of survival of people in the rivers and lakes, if there was no court to come like this, Fang Zhen might still be able to bear it, but the court came like this, Fang Zhen must not be able to bear it, and he must react, and the fall of the horse is the best reason at this time.

This battle is settled!

But what is the result of this battle?! Master Liu didn't know, he only felt fear, looking at the excited gangs around him, how long could these fresh lives be excited?!

He felt terrible!

The Long River Order, from the imperial capital quickly spread to all places, and the rivers and lakes shook dramatically!

The profound heritage of the Cao Gang was immediately revealed, and on the same day, more than ten Jianghu sects near the imperial capital announced that they would stand with the Cao Gang.

On the Yellow River, two boats are rushing downstream, the sails are bulging, the huge window rolls up layers of waves, the sturdy man looks around vigilantly, he is holding a bow and crossbow in his hand, and the bow and stern are placed on a giant crossbow machine, the crossbow machine has been on the bow, and the twelve giant arrows are staring ahead, this kind of equipment that the Great Zhou military only has appeared on this civilian ship, revealing the extraordinary nature of the shipowner.

A dodo fell from the sky, and a man in gray on the roof of the cabin took a small cylinder from his feet, took the cylinder and quickly descended, and when he reached the hatch, he made a careful call before pushing the hatch open.

In the cabin, Xiao Yu and He Dong sat opposite each other, while Chang Meng was pale and leaned against the window crookedly, looking at the scenery outside the window with dull eyes, without the slightest interest in the conversation between them.

After He Dong finished reading the information on the paper, he handed it to Xiao Yu casually, Xiao Yu took it and read it quickly, and then said with a smile: "It seems that your torch Fang Zhen, the old fox, is lit." ”

"So what," He Dong turned his head to look at Chang Meng, and said very casually: "The surname Fang is a person who sells his reputation and reputation, and Lao Tzu just can't get used to him." ”

"Then do you have a way to deal with the Cao Gang?"

"Of course, the waters of Luoma Lake are vast and the waterways are complicated, so Lao Tzu is hiding in it, letting the surnamed Fang attack, and he will bite him coldly. ”

Xiao Yu applauded and laughed: "This strategy is great." ”

"However, if you want to win, it depends on how well you do in the imperial capital and Jiangnan. He Dong said with a smile, Xiao Yu nodded slightly, and said with some worry: "I'm afraid I'm going to be in the dark this time, you are under a lot of pressure." ”

"Don't worry, the surname Fang can only drink my footwashing water. He Dong said contemptuously, Xiao Yu shook his head slightly: "Although Luoma Lake is big, there are many people in the surrounding rivers and lakes, if they give Fang Zhen directions,.。。 , Brother He is still careful. ”

"Hmm. He Dong didn't seem to listen, Xiao Yu got up to say goodbye, and He Dong sent it to the stern.

"Brother Xiao, please rest assured, next spring, thirty boats will be delivered in full. ”

"Okay, if you have any problems, give me news. ”

After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he didn't see how he behaved, his body floated lightly in the air, and then he fell into the boat behind him with one step, and soon the boat turned around and sailed towards the imperial capital.

He Dong turned around and entered the cabin, and when he saw Chang Meng's sluggish expression, he asked with some worry: "Second brother, do you feel better?"

Chang Meng nodded indifferently, He Dong came over, reached out to grab his wrist, Chang Meng avoided it, He Dong insisted, grabbed his hand and entered an internal breath, the dantian was empty, only a small trace of internal qi, and he couldn't help but sigh lightly.

Chang Meng's injuries this time are not serious, only a few minor external injuries, but the internal consumption is very large, almost consumed, if he still has a Taiping Dao Nine Turns Elixir, Chang Meng is still unconscious, this elixir is still a few years ago, he finally got it, it is said to be a second-grade elixir, a priceless treasure on the rivers and lakes.

"The Cao Gang has declared war on us. ”

Chang Meng didn't speak, his eyes were still looking out of the window, the sky was lonely, the birds had already migrated south, the shore was empty, the fields were barren, and occasionally you could see piles of wheat stalks, lonely guarding the flowing water.

There was endless confusion in his eyes.

He Dong patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "It's nothing, isn't it just the Cao Gang, when you arrive at Luoma Lake, that is the world of our brothers." ”

As he spoke, he patted him on the shoulder twice: "The most important thing for you now is to heal your injuries quickly, brother, I can't stand it alone." ”

Although Chang Meng was injured, He Dong was still very confident: "Brother, we have to cross this level, this world is big!"

Chang Meng reluctantly showed a smile, this smile was too reluctant, just twitched at the corner of his mouth, people who were not familiar with him thought he was very uncomfortable, how could they know that he was laughing.

He Dong sighed: "If that guy can come this time, I will use him to vent my brother's anger." ”

He Dong and Chang Meng firmly believed that the master of the Cao Gang that night must have been injured, but how could this time make the two of them startled, the master actually forced Chang Meng to get the stunt of pressing the bottom of the box, and caused Chang Meng to be injured, and it was not good for a month, and it was precisely like this, He Dong categorically gave up the plan to start a war with the Cao Gang on land, and decided to lure the Cao Gang to Luoma Lake, and used the complex waterways of Luoma Lake to clean up the Cao Gang.

"Changhe Order!" Liu Han frowned at first, and then shook his head: "Chong Guan is angry! Fang Zhen is also an old Jianghu, come to play this hand at this time, this is to dig a grave for yourself." ”

"The people in the rivers and lakes, the disciples of the strong beams, the courage of the skin in vain. Lao Huang said slowly with the teacup, and glared at Liu Han, as if he was very dissatisfied with his behavior today.

When Liu Han came back today, he went straight to his small courtyard, and asked him what he said to Xiao Yu, and after he caught up with him, it was the first time that Liu Han was so angry at him.

He quickly figured out the reason why Liu Han was angry, and there were two reasons for this, first, how much he said to Xiao Yu, and second, why he didn't report it to him.

Lao Huang had to explain, he didn't say much, at most he said that Liu Han's cultivation was higher than Xiao Yu's, but when he reached that realm, he didn't understand, prevaricated, and didn't say anything about other situations in the house; He wasn't sure what Xiao Yu was like now, whether he was loyal to the old master or had a new backer, he had to confirm it before he could report it to Liu Han.

After Liu Han heard this, he stared at him for a long time, as if to judge whether what he said was true, and finally told him that such a thing would not be an example.

"You have mastered my core secrets, if you make a mistake, I will be stripped naked, and you know how difficult the situation I am facing, so I will not allow a little mistake, and no matter what the situation is, you will report it to me in the future. ”

The meaning of these words was clear, and Liu Han reluctantly accepted his explanation, however, there was no second time.

Liu Han was very polite, but Lao Huang was not angry, because Liu Han had already given him enough face, after all, he also explained, if he wanted to change to someone else, I am afraid that he would not even have to explain, and he would be killed directly.

"You're not talking about me. Liu Han looked at him with a smile.

"What about you, sometimes you are calculating, sometimes you are impulsive, you have been holding back for too long. Lao Huang never beat around the bush when he spoke, even if Liu Han had just been angry at him.

Liu Han smiled bitterly in his heart, and the hatred he had borne for more than ten years did make him very depressed, and sometimes he wanted to vent.

"Oh, since you know Xiao Yu, then I want to remind you that this Xiao Yu is not simple!"

Liu Han was about to sneer at him, how could the owner of the wind and rain building be simple, and then he woke up, this old thing may mean something else.
