Chapter 27 Webster and Son
Chen He nodded in agreement and followed him. The two of them talked little along the way. They only chatted for a while and then fell asleep at the third or fourth o'clock. When they got up in the early morning, they were on their way again. In the evening, when the sun was setting, the two of them
People came to a misty valley covered with trees. The valley was extremely wide, with mountains on both sides so high that they were far apart. The depth of the valley was unpredictable, and the trees in the valley were tall and lush, completely blocking out the light and sun. It was indeed a good place to hide.
Zhong paused for a moment and said to Chen He: "Brother Chen, the fog is very thick here, please follow me." Chen He nodded in agreement, and then stepped into the forest, followed closely by Chen He. The two of them.
Running westward in the forest, if Yang Zhong hadn't checked the signs along the way, he would have been completely disoriented and didn't know where he was going. After walking for about an hour or two, he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Is it Butler Yang?"
Yang Zhong stopped and replied: "Xiao Wang, it's me!" Suddenly he heard a burst of salsa and a young man holding a spear walked out of the bushes. He first bowed to Chen He and saluted, then clasped his fists and said to Yang Zhong: "Yang
Butler, is this Daxia Zhong?"
When Chen He saw that he was very polite to him, he returned the favor with clasped fists.
Yang Zhong glanced at Chen He for fear that he would be offended. Seeing that there was no displeasure on his face, he felt relieved and said, "Don't make random guesses, little Wang. This is Young Master Chen He from the Beggar Clan, here to help us!"
"
Xiao Wang knew that he had made a mistake with his words and hurriedly apologized to Chen He and said, "Young Master Chen, please forgive me for talking too much!" Chen He clasped his fists and replied: "Brother Wang, what are you talking about? It's not your fault, I just got it.
I suddenly didn’t get to say hello to you first.”
The man said: "Young Master Chen, you are so polite. It is our great luck to have Young Master help us. Please, go away!" As he said that, he turned around and walked into the bushes. Yang Zhong took Chen He and continued walking into the valley, and then passed
After an hour, I arrived in front of a newly built hut, and met several people along the way, who must have been sentry. At this time, the people in the house seemed to have heard the noise, and one person tentatively opened the door. Before Yang Zhong could walk out, he said:
"Are all the brothers here?" Several voices came out from inside, "It's Steward Yang." Then they came out one after another. When they saw Yang Zhong, they all clasped their fists and saluted, "Steward Yang." After saying that, they all looked at Chen.
He. When Chen He saw these people looking at him, he knew that they thought he was Zhong Dao just like the previous people. He hurriedly cupped his fists and saluted and wanted to explain. Unexpectedly, Yang Zhong was the first to say: "Brothers, this is a beggar gang."
Mr. Tang Gang leader’s disciple, Mr. Chen He!” Everyone stood in awe upon hearing this and saluted with clasped fists: “I’ve been looking at you for a long time, it’s Mr. Chen!” Everyone exchanged a few words of greetings with each other and then entered the room in the order of host and guest. After a short rest, they began to discuss the entrance.
The village's plan to rescue people was worked out in the evening. Chen He went into the village alone to rescue the people. The rest of the people were ambushing outside the village to support them. That night, they simply drew a map of the Shenqian Villa and showed it to Chen He.
The next day, in the middle of the scorching sun, in the gloomy forest, a young man with a broadsword on his back was looking around for something. I saw him walking inward along the direction of the valley, exploring along the way for about an hour, when suddenly a high cliff blocked the way.
After walking down the road, they actually reached the end, but found nothing. Usually when encountering this kind of situation, they would sigh and turn around. This person put his hands on his waist, looked up to the sky, and saw that it was still early.
, he walked to the foot of the cliff and searched all the way along the cliff wall, unwilling to give up easily. When he passed by two big trees, suddenly a light flashed in front of his eyes. He felt curious and walked back quickly. Sure enough, there was a bright light coming from between the two big trees.
Pierce it out, and if you look carefully, it turns out that there is a crack in the cliff, which probably leads to another place. The two big trees are surrounded by three or four people. The two trees are blocking the intersection side by side and the vegetation here is very prosperous. If
He would not have been discovered unless he searched carefully. The man pulled out the big knife from his back and walked cautiously towards the crevice of the cliff. He probably walked more than thirty feet, and finally came to the port. When he walked out of the cave, his eyes suddenly opened up, with birds singing, flowers fragrant, and butterflies fluttering.
, the orchards and rice fields are distributed in an orderly manner, making it a peach orchard that is out of this world.
The man couldn't help being stunned for the first time when he saw this scene. Then he woke up and paid careful attention to the changes around him. He was suddenly shocked to find that there were more than a dozen people hiding on both sides of the cave entrance. He was shocked in his heart and thought to himself: "It's so dangerous. If it weren't for Yang
My brother gave me the instructions before, and I deceived them by pretending all the way. I'm afraid they will attack me in groups when I come out of the cave, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to get in here even if I'm not dead!" It turns out that this person is exactly what Chen He was pretending to be.
, the previous method of searching for a path was naturally to show it to the enemy secretly, so as not to make them suspicious.
Naturally, the other party would not dare to take action without knowing the details of Chen He. If Chen He were allowed to escape from the Divine Gun Villa, it would no longer be a secret in the world.
Chen He stood there and paused for a while. Still seeing no movement from them, he felt relieved and secretly praised: "This place is like a fairyland. It's really beautiful to live here for a hundred years." He walked through the orchard and along the fields.
The stone road went around a few bends, and suddenly a large mansion appeared in front of us. The door was closed, and two squatting stone lions stood guard on both sides. A gold plaque hung high on the door, shining brightly, and it clearly read "Shengun Villa"
"Four big characters. Although these four characters are not as good as those written by famous writers, they are strong and powerful without losing their grandeur. There are a few small characters "Qi Zhen Ti" where I read the pen. I can't help but stand in awe when I see these words and bow slightly.
Gong. Chen He had long heard that the ancestor of the Zhao family, Qinlong Gong, had a close relationship with the Yingzong. From this point of view, it is clear. Judging from the signs on the gate, it is obviously many years old, and there are many repairs in some places.
But it is concise and true. It seems that the people of this Shenqian Villa are definitely not vain people. Chen He quickly walked up the stairs and knocked hard, shouting: "Kongtong Chen Yidao took the liberty to visit your mansion and sincerely ask Mr. Zhao to
Meet!"
After a while, the door creaked open and a strong man walked out and said, "Who is calling?"
Chen He cupped his hands and said, "Kongtong Chen Yidao is here to visit your village!"
The man also slightly arched his hands and said, "It turns out to be Chen Shaoxia from Kongtong. I have admired you for a long time. The owner of my village is here to invite you. Please!" He made a gesture to invite people in.
Chen He knew that they would not kill him rashly when they did not know clearly how they found the Divine Gun Villa and did not know the depth of his martial arts skills, so he walked in calmly and calmly with his head held high. The man led Chen He inside
When I was in the courtyard, I saw a young man cleaning the courtyard, but his eyes were always looking at the people around him very fiercely, as if he wished he could kill everyone with his eyes. The scars on his body showed that he had been tortured. Chen He
Hearing that Yang Zhong described the appearance of Zhao Dingwei, the young master of the Zhao family, in detail, the man in front of him was Zhao Dingwei. Chen He felt very sympathetic when he saw him, but he couldn't let this ruin the plan, so he had to endure it and not go forward to tell Chen He.
He gradually walked to the inner courtyard. Zhao Dingwei stared at him with electric eyes, and gradually forgot about the situation until Chen He disappeared into the inner courtyard. When Chen He walked into the inner courtyard, a big man over fifty years old was smiling.
He came up to us, raised his hands in salute, and said, "This distinguished guest has come from afar, which really makes me shine! I, Zhao Dingde, didn't come from afar to welcome you. It's really disrespectful."
Chen He saw that this man's appearance was very similar to the Wei Yi described by Yang Zhong and others, and thought to himself: "If Brother Yang and the others hadn't told us about the situation earlier, they would have fallen into this trap!" After he finished speaking, Chen He
He quickly replied: "Mr. Zhao, I have taken the liberty of sending my disciple Chen Yidao from Kongtong to pay homage to the village. Please forgive me for not being able to inform you beforehand!" After saying this, he bowed his head again in ceremony.
Zhao Dingde laughed and said: "Our village is located in a barren mountain. It is extremely remote and difficult for outsiders to find. Since Chen Shaoxia can find it, it means that we are very destined. Where does the crime come from?" He smiled and invited Chen He in.
Lobby.
Zhao Dingde sat on the Grand Master's chair and said hehe, "May I ask which senior of the Kongtong sect Master Chen Shaoxia is?"
Chen He said: "My master's name is unexpected. I have been studying martial arts for more than ten years. I think that I am already proficient in all kinds of martial arts. But when it comes to marksmanship, my master said that the Zhao family's marksmanship at Shenqiang Villa is invincible."
, so this junior has come all the way to ask Mr. Zhao for advice on some tricks!"
Zhao Dingde said: "It turns out that respecting the teacher does not mean the master. It is really disrespectful!" Then he shouted: "Come here, prepare a banquet quickly to welcome Chen Shaoxia!"
Chen He hurriedly declined and said: "Mr. Zhao, there is no need to be polite. I will leave as soon as Mr. Zhao teaches me a few tricks. Don't bother me!"
Zhao Dingde sighed and said: "Young Master Chen, I don't know, my father... my father passed away last year! Now I am in charge of the affairs of the village."
Chen He had already heard about this from Yang Zhong, and pretended to be surprised: "Ah! Mr. Zhao is deceased! A generation of heroes has fallen like this. It's really sad!"
Zhao Dingde said: "I would like to thank Chen Shaoxia for my late father. When he was young, my late father went out touring the rivers and lakes for a period of time, but it has been fifty or sixty years ago. It is not a good thing to live in the West now."
, Chen Shaoxia, there is no need to be sad!"
Chen He thought to himself: "It's a coincidence what this person said. There is a lot of rumors in the world that Mr. Zhao has been in the martial arts world when he was young. He reminded me like this to express that this Mr. Zhao is the other Mr. Zhao."
, but it is so emphasized that Mr. Zhao has passed away, and there must be a lot of articles in this period!" Thinking of this, he can't help but become more cautious. If what Yang Zhong and others said is true, then this man is really unpredictable! Chen He sighed slightly.
He said: "Qianli Xun came here and wanted to ask the old manor master for a few moves, and even more wanted to take this opportunity to see the old manor master's expression. Unexpectedly, the old manor master has passed away!" Another long sigh of "Alas" said:
"Master Zhao, can you take this junior to the tomb of the old master? It's a pity that this junior can't see the immortal face of the old master. I especially want to pay homage to him at the tomb of the old master!"
Zhao Dingde nodded in agreement and took Chen He all the way to the top of a hill on the left. Sure enough, there was a new tomb. On the monument were clearly written "The tomb of Mr. Xian Kao Zhao Gongwen". It was indeed the tomb of the old village owner.
The sacrifices were still there in front of him. Judging from the situation, Zhao Dingde often came to pay homage. At this time, Chen He secretly said in his heart: "This Wei Yi is not as vicious as Brother Yang and the others said!" He walked respectfully in front of the tomb.
After three great gifts, he stood up and said: "Zhao Zhuang, since the old Zhuang Zhu has passed away, I have an unkind request from the younger generation. I hope the Zhuang Zhu will agree to it!"
Zhao Dingde said: "If Chen Shaoxia has something to do, it's okay to say it!"
Chen He said: "This junior wants to ask the owner of the village to give me some advice, and my journey of thousands of miles is not in vain!"
Zhao Dingde seemed a little embarrassed and said: "This... I'm afraid there is something wrong! Swords don't have eyes, and it would be very bad if it hurts the distinguished guest!"
Chen He laughed and said: "Master, let's compete in martial arts without harming anyone's life. Let's stop at the point."
Zhao Dingde could only nod his head and said: "Okay! Then just listen to Chen Shaoxia's words and leave it at that! But today, Shaoxia has come a long way, so please rest for a night, and it won't be too late to compete tomorrow."
Chen He was thinking about this and hurriedly said: "In that case, then listen to the owner of the village. After the discussion tomorrow, I will leave the precious treasure place immediately and never mention this matter to anyone!"
Zhao Dingde nodded and replied: "That's very good. Please come to the village to rest, young knight!" After saying that, he led Chen He back to the village. Zhao Dingde was very talkative. The two of them actually chatted until dinner time, waiting for the servants to arrive.
He stopped when he called for dinner. As Chen He chatted with him, he felt more and more that this person was not a heinous person as Yang Zhong and others said.
While the two were having a meal, a young man suddenly broke in and said loudly: "Father, I heard that a stranger has come to the village!" Chen He saw that this man looked very similar to Wei Dao, Wei Yi's son, as mentioned by Yang Zhong and others.
, hearing him call Zhao Dingde his father, made him even more certain that this person was Wei Dao.
Zhao Dingde chuckled and said: "Chaoer, come and meet Chen Shaoxia of Kongtong!" Then he introduced Chen He and said: "Chen Shaoxia, this is my son Yichao." Zhao Yichao and Chen He greeted each other and sat down.
Chen He saw that their speech and behavior were appropriate, which seemed to be somewhat similar to that of Mr. Dong. They were definitely not reckless, but they did not lose their loyalty. This analysis was very consistent with the historical background of the Zhao family. Thinking of this, he felt a lot more in his heart.
