Yuzhou, Shangyang City.

The Nangong family is in the largest villa in Yuzhou. The first snow of this winter is falling. Nangong Tong, the owner of the villa, is dancing his sword in the snow.

Unlike in the past, Nangong got up very early today. He washed up briefly before dawn under the service of four close maids, rode the dark clouds and snow that he had just bought for 100,000 taels of silver a few days ago and galloped outside Shangyang City for an hour. Then he came back to take advantage of the passionate energy to get a set of Nangong's "Shangqiong Biluo 72nd Hand". Finally, it was the Nine Changes of Spirit Flash that had concentrated all its energy.

The tiny snowflakes were wrapped in the north wind, but they could not fall within one meter of Nangong Tong's side. They could only see a flash of cold light in the air and disappeared. Nangong Tong's figure was like the sword light, and he was in a row. He was in front and behind, as if several phantoms were constantly flashing each other.

With a sudden shout, several figures of Nangong Tong suddenly flashed into the middle at the same time, and nine sharp sword auras were entangled and stirred outwards. Two wooden dolls several feet away were immediately thorned into pieces flying all over the sky.

Nangong Tong stood still and put his sword in his arms, sweating all over his head, and a trace of white air was constantly simmering from his clothes, and a smile appeared on his handsome face. Finally, he could use this move "Nine Spirit Break". He felt that he was in a good mood. This warm-up this morning was not in vain.

However, this early riding horses, practicing boxing, and dancing swords was not to use this move, and this move was just like those warm-ups. It was just a prelude to cultivate a good mood.

Nangong Tong threw his sword and turned back to the room. At this time, his four maids had already boiled a large bucket of bath water with Hanshan Spring Water transported back 150 miles away, and added medicinal materials and spices specially prepared for him by the chief shopkeeper of the Yuzhou Valley of Medicine King Valley. However, the cost of this bucket of bath water was enough for ordinary people to spend ten years. But this is really common in the Nangong family. The Nangong family has money, and the people of the Nangong family know how to use money. Speaking of enjoyment and taste, no one in the world dares to say that they can surpass the Nangong family.

After soaking in a large bathtub that was almost a small pond for half an hour, each pore was relaxed to the extreme, and all the sweat and waste from the skin texture were discharged. The slightly tired muscles also returned to their best condition under the careful massage of the two close maids. Nangong Tong then stood up. He changed into a set of blue shirts cut from the best Shu embroidery, and ate a cup of Tianguan Snow Clam Bird's Nest Porridge carefully prepared in the kitchen. He felt his complexion. His mood and spirit had been adjusted to the best state. After looking at the mirror, he could only see a handsome and elegant young man inside. His lips were red and his teeth were white, and his spirit was refreshed. His whole person exuded a beautiful jade-like color and brilliance, and his heroic spirit was lingering in his behavior. Every muscle line and body outline showed the vitality in this body.

Sure enough, only such a young hero can afford to be the leader of the "Justice Alliance" who is about to rise to the world and lead thousands of eyes and the storm. Nangong Tong smiled proudly.

Today is the day when the branch of the Zhengdao League in Yuzhou is officially established, and my cousin is coming. So Nangong Tong was so energetic and prepared, and planned to dress up this good day as glorious and beautiful as himself.

Alas, no, my cousin said that the Zhengdao Alliance is just in its inception, so it should not be too ostentatious. I also specifically told me to be low-key today. Whether it is better, I have not invited many people anyway, how can the Nangong family make things noisy and noisy like those rich people, for fear that others will not know? But I just invited two elders of Zhenwu Sect, Master Qingmu, the host of the Songshan Villa in the Pure Land Zen Temple in this Yuzhou, and the rudder of the Yuzhou Branch of Shenjitang, must have arrived. In addition, several heads of the largest sect in Yuzhou, the Taishan Beidou people in the entire Yuzhou Baidao gathered together to have a meal and exchanged views, and discussed how the Zhengdao Alliance should be in the Yuzhou River and Lake in the future.

Should I ask the prefect Liu from the prefecture to come? Although all the people who attended the scene were all about the Jianghu sects and all the things in the Jianghu sects, how could the Jianghu Temple be so clear? If it weren't for Zhenwu, Maoshan, Longhushan and other Jianghu sects, Yuzhou had turned into ruins under the sword and axe of the Xidi barbarians, and the capital in the south would have suffered. I learned this lesson. In the past few years, the court has also received great courtesy towards Zhenwu Sect and Longhu Mountain? There are many children from the Jianghu 30,000 Imperial Army in the capital. Moreover, the Zhengdao Alliance must have communicated with the officials. It is much easier to do things with the relationship between the six gates. I just don't know if Mr. Liu, who was a Confucian scholar, would feel uncomfortable among a group of Jianghu people.

I just don't know if Mr. Liu, who was born in a Confucian scholar, would feel uncomfortable among a group of Jianghu people. Moreover, he would definitely feel that the Zhengdao Alliance would have some information.

While frowning and thinking hard, the person below suddenly came to report the news: Fairy He has arrived.

He came to the front door in two steps. When he saw a beautiful figure in red clothes jumping down from the horse, Nangong Tong hurried forward: "Cousin, I've been very sad all the way!"

"Where is it, my cousin is working hard to help me prepare for this Yuzhou." The man smiled sweetly. Although it was just winter, Nangong Tong suddenly felt that flowers were blooming, and the birds were singing and fragrant. This was a bright and generous woman who looked like the sunshine in the sky. Her bright red leather uniform further highlighted her heroic spirit and enthusiasm. Every frown and smile revealed her confidence and aura. The slightly obscure person in his heart couldn't help but feel her lowered.

Nangong Tong quickly replied: "My cousin Si'er's affairs are mine. I can only be happy to help my cousin and I have no more effort. Besides, our Nangong family must also participate in this righteous alliance, so my cousin does not need to be polite."

Nangong Tong admires this cousin, who is two years younger than him, and admires him with three points of admiration, three points of love, and four points of admiration. In his mind, he looks more like a capable cousin. Unlike himself who has been shrouded in the halo of the Nangong family for his whole life, and most other brothers and sisters, this cousin is not inferior to them, and even more so - her mother was the first beauty of the Nangong family in the past, and her father is the head of Maoshan today. However, this cousin's hard work and strength since childhood are far away from them.

It is far from comparable. Even among the hundreds of disciples of Maoshan, she is the best among her peers in both martial arts and Taoism. Moreover, she has been exploring in the world alone since she was fifteen years old. In the past three or four years, the name of Fairy He in Maoshan has become famous in the three states of the Central Plains. She seems to think it is not enough. In the past two years, she has contacted many people and plans to establish a "Justice Alliance" for outstanding young disciples in the world of Jianghu. It is a brilliant new star rising in the Middle Plains.

"Cousin, I got the advantage of my seventh brother this time. Today I invited two elders of Zhenwu Sect to come, but unfortunately they seemed to have accidentally intervened in for the time being. Although Zen Master Aoki in Songshan Villa has not spoken yet, he has been in the limelight of the Pure Land Temple's actions in recent years. I think most of them will still agree to join us."

"They will definitely agree, but it's not now." The woman followed Nangong Tong to the inner hall and smiled confidently. "The Zhenwu Sect has always been cautious and steady in its behavior. We are just starting out now. He naturally has to wait and see first. The Pure Land Zen Temple has been prosperous over the years. But he has always been concerned about other aristocratic families and is not able to find an opportunity to get along well with everyone and communicate with each other. This time it is also an opportunity for them. They will definitely agree to join. At most, they are still worried that we are just children of aristocratic families who are bored and gather together to make trouble."

"These monks are so rude!"

"Cousin, don't be angry randomly, this is just my guess." The woman giggled again, then her face turned solemn, and a light flashed in her eyes. "After all, it's up to us to our own strength. After all, this righteous Pangchun was initiated by our younger generation just now, so it's normal for others to have some doubts. As long as we do some major things first, we can see the fellow practitioners in the world, they will naturally understand."

"My cousin can see clearly! Then we must do a few major things this time to make them look at each other with admiration! I will invite Lord Liu to the banquet later. With his strong support, we."

"No." The woman waved her hand without hesitation. "Don't involve the people on the official's face for the time being."

"Why?" Nangong Tong was stunned. "This Zhengdao Alliance will definitely deal with the officials in the future. Moreover, Shenjitang and the others have already reached an agreement with the Yingwei Mansion, so that's why."

"So people in the world never look down on Shenjitang." The woman said coldly. "Although the court has always been tolerant of the forces in the world, the national laws and regulations cannot be ignored. After all, the heroes in the world are used to being disheveled and disgusted with the rules in the six gates. The most important thing for us in the early stage of this pioneering period is to make a name in the world, so the relationship between the officials should not be made public for the time being. Even the people in Shenjitang should try to reduce contact and try to borrow less from their family forces in their actions. We can only rely on ourselves."

"It depends entirely on ourselves. Do we still have to fight and kill those bandits, humans and demons? Youdao is the son of a thousand gold. "Nangong Tong felt a little cold sweat on his head without realizing it. His swordsmanship and martial arts are also a first-class master in the world, but if he really wants him to roar and scream with other men in the world, he might as well kill him with a sword.

The girl seemed to see his thoughts and smiled again: "Don't worry, cousin, I will never ask you to fight and kill yourself."

Nangong Tong smiled ashamed and said quickly: "Do my cousin know about the recent major events in the world? Maybe it's the opportunity for our righteous alliance."

"Oh? I have been raising money with my eldest brother of the Li family in Yangzhou these days. Although I have heard some news, the details are not very clear. Do you understand if my cousin finds out?"

"Of course I understand everything." Nangong Tong smiled proudly. "I beg my second uncle to ask for news from Yingwei and Qingyulou, even the news in Yingshun's hands is nothing more than that."

"The first thing is the matter of the Tianhuo Mountain outside the Great Wall. When the Zhuque Spirit Fire was spreading in the rivers and lakes a few years ago, we had already secretly received news from the Shadow Guard. The person who offered a reward of 300,000 taels of gold in the Qingyu Tower was most likely the people from the General Mansion of Yongzhou. Only those frogs in the well who were so vigilant that they would want to share the soup. In the end, Ye Hongshan fought out until the spiritual fire sacrifice was completed, and with the help of the blood-light sword and evil spirit fire, the blood-light god halberd in his hand was completed."

"Since it's been more than half a month since this matter has passed, what else can we do?"

"Hehe, Ye Hongshan is so arrogant that he is extremely domineering. He uses such a roundabout way to sacrifice the weapons in his hands. Can't you still see the clues, my cousin?"

"Cousin, don't keep it a secret. Just tell me if you have any news."

"Cough cough" Nangong Tong blushed. "Actually, I don't know very well, because even the second uncle seems to know it, and I repeatedly reminded me not to inquire more. I just said that Ye Hongshan seems to have to do a big thing in recent years. The court has been indulging him over the years and it is also related to this matter. Regardless of success or failure, this matter will definitely be a huge loss to Ye Hongshan's strength, and we can do it."

"Okay. Cousin, don't care about this matter anymore. That's not something we can interfere." The woman waved her hand. "I know that the Shadow Guard secretly helped us establish this righteous alliance, which means integrating the power of the three states in the Central Plains to gradually become one of the forces to balance Yongzhou. But it also takes at least ten years of slowly accumulating and planning. Now our power is too small. It's not our turn to go to the heart of such a big thing. I heard the leader vaguely mention it recently. It was a matter that shocked the world. There were countless calculations in it, and even the Pure Land Zen Temple and Longhu Mountain could only walk on thin ice. Our power was just a drop in the ocean. Let's take the steps in front of you step by step. It's serious."

"Well, my cousin said," Nangong Tong's face turned red again. "But I heard that in a chaotic battle under the volcano that day, Young He Tian, ​​the son of the head of the Kunlun Sect, shined in it. Not only was the magic, but he killed countless Xidi barbarians and demon insects, but he was also righteous and scolded those Jizhou military troops who were inseparable from the enemy and us. In the end, the remaining people in the martial arts world were also very likely to be rescued by the Kunlun Sect. Such a chivalrous young handsome man is exactly what our righteous alliance needs. Moreover, the Kunlun Sect rarely entered the martial arts world and the martial arts world. Therefore, his reputation was not obvious, but it was an ancient Taoist sect like the Five Elements Sect. It must be very rich in background, and it would be of great benefit if we could join us."

"Although it's good, the Kunlun Sect has no contact with our families. Then we are not familiar with He Tian. Kunlun Mountain is also far away from the frontier. Do you have to travel thousands of miles to invite people to join? Isn't it seem too deliberate?"

"Er" Nangong Tong's forehead was already a little sweating. "Have you heard about the news about the Luoshui Gang in Qingzhou? Do you know about dozens of people in the city were skinned and killed by the murderer. It was so cruel that it was clearly used to sacrifice and refine demons in the evil way. And killing dozens of experts from the Luoshui Gang summoned by the Jianghu, even the Rage Master of the Pure Land Zen Temple is no match for the achievements of catching such evil demons. The achievements of catching such evil demons will surely be the Demon Elimination Order this year."

"Cousin, you always talk about something more real." After Nangong Tong walked to the inner room, the woman picked up the fragrant tea she had prepared early and took a sip, and smiled faintly.

"Haha" Nangong Tong finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was a copper tube buried underground in the house, and the ground was filled with hot air. He could not tell how strange the sweat on his head was. He quickly clapped his hands and asked the servants who had prepared early to bring the southern fresh fruits that had been delivered by fast horse this morning.

However, the woman's question immediately made Nangong Tong's sweat uncontrollably again: "Did my cousin find out any special news? Although the Luoshui Gang released the reward portrait, it was not very clear. The other news was also vague. It was difficult to catch people just by relying on those things."

"I can't find out about this matter, but there is no special news about Qingyulou and Yingwei. The Luoshui Gang himself couldn't tell what kind of magic or martial arts the murderer used to kill a group of masters. The murderer's face was only said by a dying person, and he only knew that he was a beautiful young woman. As for the wild Taoist priest who colluded with the murderer, it was better. He knew that his surname was Xia, about twenty years old, had a medium figure, third-rate martial arts, and second-rate talismans."

"Secret Xia?" The woman's expression suddenly became strange.

At this moment, a tiny footsteps came from outside, and a maid ran to the door to report: "There is a pair of singing father and daughter who asked to see He Sier and Fairy He, saying that they were the fairy's old acquaintance. The old man said that he had invited the fairy to drink a bowl of sour plum sober soup when he was in Yangzhou. The fairy must still remember him."

The servants of the Nangong family are also very knowledgeable and do not simply judge people by their appearance. It is not uncommon for strangers in the world to be miserable. Even if the Nangong family courtyard is Lord of the State Council, Zhang Tianshi, a person from Longhu Mountain, cannot break through without authorization. But as long as anyone reports the right reason, it is absolutely fine to inform him.

However, after hearing this report, He Sier, who was already a little strange, became even more strange.

"Cousin, are you really an acquaintance? Why did you find this place just now? But is there any important urgent matter?" This expression naturally fell into Nangong Tong's eyes, and he turned to the maid. "Since it's my cousin's guest, why don't you invite someone in. Soak my Yunwu Lingjian in two more cups."

"Haha, no need. This person probably has no intention of drinking tea, don't waste your tea leaves, cousin." He Sier smiled and waved her hand. After thinking about it, she said again. "I wonder if my cousin can lend me a secluded room? This friend probably has some secret matters to explain to me."

Nangong Tong nodded quickly: "What are my cousin saying? It must be the top secret news that my cousin made friends with. I won't hinder my cousin here, so I'll avoid it for the time being."

Not long after, the servant led the father and daughter in. The old man who looked like a father looked nothing strange. He held an old huqin in his hand. His clothes were thin, and he was trembling in the early winter snow. He was relieved until he walked into the warm room. The village girl next to him seemed to be his daughter, but he looked left and right with big eyes open and curiously.

After the servant retreated, He Sier stared at the old man and snorted coldly and said, "You are so brave. If I don't go to find you, you dare to come to find me? Don't you know that this girl is jealous of evil and takes it as her responsibility to eradicate all evil demons and heretics in the world? Are you not afraid that this girl will take you down on the spot?"

"What is the girl saying? Please forgive me for being stupid. I don't understand it very well." The old man looked puzzled when he heard it. "I and my daughter wandered around the world and depended on each other for life. It was because of a strange injustice that I have heard for a long time that Fairy He of Maoshan Sect is a chivalrous and heroic woman, so I came to ask for help with my daughter."

"Okay. There are no one else here, who else can I show you the show?" He Sier frowned. "Tell me quickly, is the matter of the Qingzhou Luoshui Gang really what you did? What is the truth? Why did you come to me?"

The old man still looked confused and said in a hoarse voice: "Please forgive me for saying the girl. I really can't understand what I said. Lao I and my daughter are wandering around because Zeng Laohu, the bully in the village, wanted to force her daughter to take her concubine."

"Are you enough?" He Sier suddenly shouted angrily and slapped the table and stood up.

Grah said, the table with the beautiful pear blossom trees was split under the palm force. The old man also knelt down with his legs and kowtowed to He Sier repeatedly: "Please calm down, please calm down, I really have no false words, every sentence is true."

Now it was He Sier's turn to be completely stunned. He looked at the old man begging for mercy on the ground with a confused look on his face and was at a loss. The girl dressed in a village girl seemed to be frightened and looked at He Sier blankly.

After a while, He Sier asked the old man in a very strange tone: "You are really not the Xia surname?"

"Old man's surname is Fu, not Xia." The old man on the ground was already scared and sweating profusely.

"Then why do you say, what sour plum sober soup you invited me to drink when I was in Yangzhou?"

"That's because someone asked me to say that."

At this moment, another servant came to report: "Fairy He, outside the door, there was a young Taoist priest who claimed to be the surname Xia, who asked to see him. He said he was an old acquaintance of Fairy He."

"Tell him to get out of here, ask him to come in." He Sier covered her forehead and sighed heavily.

After a while, the man who asked her to cover her head came in. She was about twenty years old, smiling with a slick look like an old man. This time, she finally had the same person as she expected to remember. She was the wild Taoist priest named Xia whom she had known before, and the reward offered by the Luoshui Gang of Qingzhou. She couldn't help but shouted angrily: "Who is surnamed Xia, what are you doing?"

Xiao Xia did not answer first, but immediately helped the old man on the ground: "Dad Fu, why are you kneeling on the ground? Didn't I tell you that Fairy He is a great man with a chivalrous and virtuous heart? You don't have to kneel down and beg her and she will definitely be fair for you."

"What's going on? You, he?" He Sier pointed at Xiao Xia and looked at the old man on the ground, feeling a mess in her head.

"Oh, this is Mr. Fu whom I met outside Shangyang City. He was forced by a bully from his fellow countryman and wandered on the street with his daughter. I took him to see you. I had something to do and delayed it a little bit, so I asked them to come here first. I was afraid that they would not be able to get in, so I asked him to say that."

"Okay. I'm thinking too much. I thought you were dressing up like this." He Sier shook her head and hurried over and bowed to the old man to apologize. "Brother-in-law, the little woman had a misunderstanding just now, and she was really embarrassed to be frightened. If you have any injustice, you can tell me in detail." She glanced at the woman standing next to her. "Then is the father-in-law's daughter?"

"No, this is my friend, and a close friend of the Master of the Shifang Master of Pure Land Zen Temple. Miss Mingyue, who is also the descendant of Buddhism. Before, I arranged for Mr. Fu's daughter to go to the inn to stay in the inn and asked Ms. Mingyue to accompany Mr. Fu to come first. Perhaps it was because the servant at the door misunderstood."

"Oh, it turns out that he is a friend of Master Shifang. He is so resentful." He Sier clasped her fists at Mingyue with a look of surprise. "Then I'll arrange for Mr. Fu to take a rest for now. Please take a rest here for a while, Miss Mingyue, you two are here for a while."

When He Sier personally took the old man away and there were only Xiao Xia and Mingyue and the other two left in the room, Mingyue suddenly smiled at Xiao Xia: "Master Xia, please let me and Dad Fu come first, and let me see if she has murderous intent before sending a secret signal to you. Are you afraid that she will arrest you?"

"Miss Mingyue, I find that you are getting smarter now."

"Actually, you don't have to be afraid. Although Fairy He is a little stupid, she is not a bad person."

Xiao Xia sighed and said, "Miss Mingyue, you don't know. Sometimes those not-so-smart good people are more dangerous than bad people." (To be continued...)
