As the sun set in the west, three fast horses galloped across the official road and arrived outside Baisu Town.
Ye Jingtang led the way, with a spear wrapped in black cloth hanging on the side of the horse, and Niaoniao squatting on the saddle standing in front of him. Pei Xiangjun and Luo Ning followed behind wearing curtain hats.
Baisu Town is located in the east of Jianyang City, more than 80 miles away. The town is quite large, and the Wuzhou sect Xian Yue Tower has its roots here.
Jianghu sects have a variety of names, but there is still a bit of care in choosing a name.
Most of the sects ending with the words "lou", "fang" and "ge" are located inside the city, and their main business is to open shops in the city.
Honghualou is engaged in dock business. Strictly speaking, it should be called the "Honghua Gang", but it sounds a bit like a gangster. At that time, the major shipping gangs formed an alliance, so the name was changed to Honghualou. The red flower represents the gun tassel, and the building
It means businessman.
Qian Yue Lou is essentially a businessman, but his organizational structure is more centralized than that of Honghua Lou. The manpower of the entire sect is Wu Xi's generation. The main business is selling medicinal materials and furs. There are many disciples, three hundred in the town alone.
Yu Ren, it’s okay to say that the entire Baisu Town belongs to Qianyue Tower.
After King Wu's accident, everything inside and outside Jianyang City was in chaos. Baisu Town was quite far away. The situation in the town was normal, but there were not many merchants and merchants walking on the streets.
After Ye Jingtang entered the town, he first found a small inn in the town. After confirming that it was not owned by Qian Yue Lou, he entered it and opened a room. Then the three of them started dressing up.
In the inn facing the street, the birds stood on the roof and watched, paying attention to the surrounding movements.
In the not-so-large room, Luo Ning took off the curtains and hats, got into the bed without a second thought, put down the curtains, and changed clothes while avoiding the night terror hall.
Ye Jingtang was more generous. He stood at the table and took off his black robe, revealing his shining silver armor.
Seeing Luo Ning hiding on the bed, Pei Xiangjun was naturally embarrassed to undress and take off his belt in front of Ye Jingtang. He also got into the tent and took off his black military uniform, revealing his plump white body and frowning.
Mei'er said:
"It's unclear whether Xianyuelou is a close aide of King Wu. At this critical juncture, you come here under the guise of Pingtian Sect. What if Huang Yulong is afraid of being liquidated by the court and wants to take you down directly because of his meritorious deeds?
Fight your way out of town?”
Luo Ning stood on the bed, unbuttoned her cyan skirt, revealing her bellyband, with pride in her beautiful peach blossom eyes:
"Do you think that the Pingtian Sect is just like your Honghua Tower? It only has a few hundred people, and together they can make up a Night Terror Hall to support its appearance? The Pingtian Sect, let alone the leader, can be pinched by any of the four guardians.
Even if you kill Huang Yulong and give him ten courages, he will not dare to touch the people of Pingtian Sect."
Pei Xiangjun knew that this was the truth, but he didn't like it and said displeasedly:
"The Pingtian Sect is so powerful, what does it have to do with you? You are the daughter-in-law of Jingtang. Besides, when Honghualou was the hegemon, the seven masters and one Wukui were the richest in the world. They were no better than those of you who were eating grass in southern Xinjiang.
The Pingtian Sect has more scenery..."
Luo Ning said calmly: "A hero doesn't mention his former bravery, so what's the point of saying such harsh words?"
Pei Xiangjun was not a clay Bodhisattva either. Seeing that Hu Meizi was getting into trouble again, he raised his hand and touched her buttocks.
Pa~
A springy sound came out, and the curtain was lifted open. Ye Jingtang appeared in front of the two of them and spoke to stop the fight:
"Why are you still taking action..."
The room became quiet.
Ye Jingtang looked at the endless spring light between the curtains. Although he was mentally prepared, he was still stunned for a moment.
Although it was dusk, the light in the room was not dark. The two women were standing between the curtains because they were changing clothes.
Ning'er's dress was completely gone and she was only wearing a thin light cyan bellyband. A snow-white half arc could be seen on the edge, and her straight and slender legs were very close at hand. Her face, which was already cold and attractive, looked very annoyed because of the pain. At this time, she raised her hand
Covering her buttocks, she turned to glare at Sanniang. She found that the curtain was open and looked at him again.
Sanniang stood in front of her. The big watermelon was only wrapped in a black cloth belt. Under her snowy waist, there were close-fitting black thin pants, which perfectly outlined the plump curves of Bai Yue...
Sanniang raised her hand, looking like she wanted to do it again. When she saw him coming out, she was so surprised that she hugged her chest.
Both of them stood on the bed. Ye Jingtang opened the curtain, and his eyes naturally fell on the position below his chest. Looking up were big and small watermelons, and down were his waist. For a moment, his eyes didn't know where to look first.
so that his eyes began to sway from side to side.
(←_→)
Luo Ning saw Ye Jingtang's dazzled eyes, and her eyebrows stood up:
"Little thief!"
Ye Jingtang was awakened by the scolding, smiled, and rubbed Ning'er's moon:
"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt..."
"You!" Luo Ning was immediately ashamed and angry, and quickly dodged.
Pei Xiangjun's face turned red when he saw this scene. Before he could even utter a warning, he realized that the fox next to him was not a human being. He directly used her as a shield and pushed her on the back, pushing her backwards.
reclined.
"Eh?!"
Pei Xiangjun was caught off guard and was pushed towards the Night Terror Hall, where he was immediately attacked by a standard fat-headed melon.
With Ye Jingtang's reaction, he could completely dodge this attack, but if he dodged Sanniang, he would have to fall to the floor. At that moment, he still raised his hand, resisted the collision with his face, and then held Sanniang's waist with one hand.
Let her stand firm.
Pei Xiangjun was very angry. He turned around after standing firm and said in shame:
"I think you need to take care of yourself..."
Luo Ning's face was slightly cold and her aura was shocking. She raised her hand as if she was about to pull Sanniang to wrap her breasts:
"You come!"
"you!"
Pei Xiangjun was immediately frightened, holding his chest and retreating a little.
The Night Terror Hall looked a little funny. Seeing that Sanniang was very embarrassed, she lowered the curtain:
"Okay, let's change clothes quickly, there's still business to do."
"Jingtang, you have time to take care of her..."
"Hmph~!"
Ye Jingtang secretly shook his head and put on a dark blue robe while talking and laughing.
The Pingtian Sect was founded by Taoist priests from the Qintian Prison of the former dynasty. Although it is not recognized by Taoist orthodoxy and does not practice immortality, it only develops its power under the guise of Taoism. However, most of its followers dress up like pheasant Taoist priests when they go out.
After the three of them dressed up, Ye Jingtang took his weapons and headed towards the east side of the town...
…
——
On the east side of Baisu Town, there is an old alley. The alley is only half a foot wide and extremely deep. There are high walls of blue bricks on both sides, forming a "line of sky" landscape. Occasionally, the moon rises and just fills the line of sky at the end of the alley.
, so it got the name of "Tianyue".
Bitianyue Lane is half a mile long from beginning to end. On the left and right is the Shenzhai compound, where the three major families of Baisu Town are located. It is also the three main hall entrances of Bitianyue Tower. The Huang family at the end of the alley is the chief helmsman of Bitianyue Tower, Huang Yulong.
He is both the head of the family and the head of the family.
Bitianyue Lane is equivalent to the back mountain of the sect. It is difficult for outsiders to set foot in. Usually there are few people. However, in the past two days, King Wu has been in trouble and the situation in Wuzhou is unclear. From time to time, disciples will run in from the alley and report the situation in various places in Wuzhou.
In the incense hall deep in the Huang family mansion, there is a portrait of the founder of Xianyue Tower, and there are several chairs in front of the hall.
Huang Yulong, who was over fifty years old, dressed like an ordinary foreigner, took a seat at the main seat, holding a tea cup in his hand and gently stirring the tea leaves floating on the water with the lid of the cup.
Sitting on the right side of the hall is Xiao Shichen, the second head of the Yue Tower, frowning and saying:
"People from the imperial court have been arriving one after another. Official ships have entered Wuxi Pier from time to time, and the main entrance and exit routes have been blocked by officers and soldiers. This morning, my third brother-in-law was arrested in Wanshui Town. He will be investigated soon.
Not only Liumenmen but also people from the black government office..."
Huang Yulong moved his hands and frowned:
"At such a critical juncture, being targeted by the capital city, a slight mistake could lead to disaster... Why are you being investigated for?"
Xiao Shichen naturally knew the seriousness of the matter and said calmly:
"Prince Wu's Mansion needs martial artists with solid Kung Fu skills, so I asked my subordinates to recruit martial artists from other places, but when I left and never returned, my family came to visit me, causing trouble... I didn't know the details of my subordinates, and they broke off the relationship with Xianyuelou.
The case has been closed and will not affect Qianyue Tower..."
Huang Yulong put down the tea cup with an angry look on his face:
"If you can't handle such a small thing, what's the point?"
Xiao Shichen sighed: "It's meaningless to talk about this now. King Wu has fallen. We, Xianyue Tower, have a lot of things to do for King Wu. If the court really wants to investigate, there are hundreds of disciples in the building, including you and me. I'm afraid
Half of it must be cut off and half of it must be shed, what should we do now?”
"King Wu has a good foundation. There is no hope of rebelling and becoming emperor. It is not difficult to escape from Wuzhou and take root in other places. Lord Bai is planning, and he should find a way to break out in the next few days. Then I can just leave with you..."
Xiao Shichen looked at the town outside and sighed:
"Such a big family fortune, just throw it away, alas..."
"If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood. The secret medicine researched by King Wu is making rapid progress. If you and I can both become Wu Kui, what is a broken town? Just like Fengguan City, reaching the top of martial arts is subject to hundreds of
When Wan Wufu comes to court, that is called true elegance..."
Xiao Shichen sighed secretly in his heart. While discussing countermeasures with Huang Yulong, he suddenly heard something coming from outside:
"who?!"
When the two of them found the sound outside the main hall of the house, their eyelids jumped - if they could pass through countless disciples without making a sound and touch the center of the house, they must be top experts!
Huang Yulong didn't dare to be careless, so he put down his teacup, took a saber from the desk, and quickly walked to the back of the main hall, looking out from the entrance door.
Outside the main hall is a large courtyard. At this time, the surrounding verandahs are full of disciples from Xianyuelou who have come in a hurry.
The sun had set, and the light in the courtyard was dim. Two figures suddenly appeared, standing on the crosswalk in the center of the courtyard.
The leader is a woman in green clothes, tall and tall, her face covered with gauze. Only a pair of enchanting peach blossom eyes can be seen. Her temperament is out of this world, like a beautiful girl from the Toad Palace who descended from the nine heavens.
Behind him is a man wearing a loose green robe. He is quite tall and well-proportioned. He looks like a fairy. He has a bamboo hat on his head and a face covering on his face. He is holding a handful of black cloth-wrapped bags in his hand.
Short soldiers.
The two people stood surrounded by dozens of disciples, motionless and calm, looking at the door of the main hall without saying a word.
Xiao Shichen felt that the person coming was very powerful and definitely not a good person, so he whispered:
"who?"
Huang Yulong took a closer look and felt that the appearance and temperament of the leading woman seemed a bit familiar, but after all, he couldn't see her appearance. He didn't remember who it was for a while, so he walked into the main hall and bowed:
"Your Excellency, Huang Yulong, may I ask who you are?"
The woman in green clothes at the head flipped her wrist and took out a dark iron plate with eight small characters engraved on it.
When Huang Yulong saw the writing on the iron plate, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he quickly walked out of the door, waving and saying:
"Everyone, step back."
The surrounding disciples of Xianyue Tower were ordered to leave the courtyard quickly.
Huang Yulong quickly walked down the steps and bowed his hands:
"It turns out that Mrs. Xue is here. It's a pleasure to meet you. I saw Mrs. Xue in Tiannan before, but I was blind and didn't recognize her. I hope Mrs. Xue can forgive me... Who is this?"
Luo Ning showed up as the leader's wife. With the support of the Pingtian Sect, she had a strong momentum and entered the main hall directly:
"I am the protector of the Pingtian Sect."
Luo Ning walked straight to the main hall and sat down, while Ye Jingtang stood beside him with his hands folded as a bodyguard.
Facing the wife of the leader of the Pingtian Sect, Huang Yulong really couldn't assume the posture of being the leader. He sat down on the chair opposite the main hall, asked Xiao Shichen to serve tea, and asked:
"Wuzhou has not been peaceful recently. Mrs. Xue came to the door at this time. I don't know why?"
Luo Ning got straight to the point:
"I, the Pingtian Sect, are former ministers of the previous dynasty. King Wu secretly plotted to overthrow the Wei Dynasty, and I and I, the Pingtian Sect, are on the same path. Recently, the leader of the Pingtian Sect heard that King Wu was defeated and would be surrendered by the court, so he specially sent his disciples to come and see.
Can you give King Wu a hand?"
Huang Yulong was surprised when he heard this, but it made sense if he thought about it carefully.
The Pingtian Sect is a remnant of the previous dynasty with roots in Miao Hong. The imperial court had been suppressing Nanxiao Mountain for many years and was unable to break through it, so it wanted to recruit them, but the Pingtian Sect did not agree. It can be said that it is an absolute villain and stands on the opposite side of the imperial court.
Now that King Wu's rebellion has failed and he has no way to escape, the Pingtian Sect learned the news and wanted to take the opportunity to conquer King Wu, so as to obtain King Wu's property and Wu Zhou's personal resources. It makes sense.
The Toad Palace Goddess is the wife of the leader of the Pingtian Sect. Since the leader of the Pingtian Sect rarely shows up, she can be said to be the head of the Pingtian Sect. He has seen her before.
There is nothing wrong with his stance, motives, and identity. Huang Yulong wants to be wary, but he doesn't know where to start.
He couldn't doubt that the Pingtian Cult had been secretly recruited. The leader of the Pingtian Cult was almost becoming an emperor. Why should he be recruited and exchanged for the meaningless title of Little Marquis despite being accused of disobeying his ancestors and being unfaithful and unjust?
Huang Yulong hesitated for a moment, then asked to be on the safe side:
"Your teaching wants to help King Wu, so he should go to King Wu. How did he find him in front of Huang's door?"
"My Pingtian Sect has eyes and ears all over the world, and there are many followers in Wuzhou. It is difficult to trace the traces of King Wu. After inquiring, it seems that Headmaster Huang has been purchasing medicinal materials for King Wu in recent years, so I came to ask. If Headmaster Huang knows about Wu
I hope you can summon me as to the whereabouts of the king. If you don’t know, just pretend that I, the Pingtian Sect, have never been here.”
"..."
Huang Yulong tapped his fingers on the table. Because there was no doubt about the identity of the Goddess of Toad Palace, and King Wu was really urgent, he hesitated for a moment and nodded, turning to look at Xiao Shichen:
"Second brother, go deliver a letter."
Ye Jingtang stood behind him and secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the sound, knowing that the fish was hooked...
