Chapter 34 The County Lord(1/2)

At this time, everyone in the hall could see from the expressions and deeds of the two guardians, Yu Alliance Leader, Geng and Tan, that this time it was not as simple as promoting the position of offering. They were silent for a moment, and the guardians and leaders brought by the Gu Hall Master even turned pale.

But when he heard Tan Gongfeng returning to his seat, he smiled and said, "When Lord Min went to Jiangning Mansion, was he staying in the "Wanfu Inn" in the city?"

Lord Min was stunned when he heard this, nodded, and then heard Tan Gongfeng say, "After being injured, have you moved your residence and stayed in Chunxiang Courtyard?"

Lord Min was shocked: "How did Gong Tan know?"

Tan Gongfeng smiled slightly, but did not answer, and looked at Lin Yi and said, "Did Master Lin go to Yinzhou more than ten days ago? Do you live in the same "Taiping Inn" with Shang Guardian?"

Lin Yi was shocked. He and Shang You went to Yinzhou, northwest. No one in the hall knew about it. He heard this and had already guessed the probabilities in his heart. He looked at the Lord Min, who was also stunned diagonally across the street, nodded and said, "Just as Mr. Tan said."

Tan Gongfeng raised the bowl and took a sip of wine, and then said, "Lord Lin is very skilled and bold. The guards in General Li Jichang's mansion in Yinzhou are all brave and good at fighting, and are not afraid of death. It is really admirable that Master Lin can grab a precious sword from his mansion."

At this time, everyone had guessed what was going on, and they were all shocked. They thought that the four hall masters who went out to hunt for treasure were all followed by their whereabouts.

"Ten days ago, the head of the Lin Hall was in the palace of General Yinzhou, and the guardian of the first palace set fire in the backyard, causing chaos in the mansion. He then sneaked into the treasure pavilion in the mansion, fought with the two guards guarding in the pavilion, seized the treasure sword and broke out of the mansion.

"But he was blocked by a guest of divine thoughts who rushed over after hearing the news. Fortunately, the guardian Shang arrived and worked together to force the man to retreat and escape. The pursuers who were chasing behind were blocked by others halfway. I guess Master Lin was eager to escape at that time, and he didn't notice it, right?"

Lin Yi thought carefully that when he was fighting with the guest minister of the General's Mansion, he received help from Shang You. After breaking out of the siege, he even went up to the roof to escape. The guest minister also chased several guards with great skills. Although it was more than 30 feet apart, it was only a matter of a moment for the pursuit person.

When he and Shang You jumped off the roof and ran away in the street alleys, although they heard the pursuing soldiers shouting for killing behind them, they did not see anyone catching up. They just thought that the pursuers were chasing the wrong direction. At this time, they heard what Tan Gongfeng said, and they felt a trembling heart and hurriedly stood up to pay tribute to Tan Gong: "It must be Mr. Tan who secretly helped, Lin thanked me."

Tan Gongfeng shook his head and said, "Lord Lin Xie was the wrong person. At that time, Tan and Lord Min were on the way back to Jiangning Mansion, and Geng Gongfeng..."

He paused, looked at the ancient hall master who was leaning over the ground, and smiled: "I am accompanying the ancient hall master to travel south of Han to enjoy the mountains and rivers, hehe."

Lin Yi and the five hall masters looked at each other and were very surprised. They thought that there were many people in this alliance who were as good as Geng and had achieved great success in the Shenshen Realm. Since their establishment, they only knew Geng around the leader of the Yu League. Tan, the two masters, did not know anything about the rest. They were silent and thoughtful.

"The Lords of the Hall are not surprised. This move can be seen by the Lords of the Halls of the Halls, courage, talent, and hehe, and also prevent the Lords of the Halls of the Halls who travel around the mountains and rivers from deceive the superiors and subordinates. Secondly, it is also to prevent you from being in danger and helping you if necessary." Tan Gongfeng said with a smile.

Lin Yi and several other hall masters looked at each other after hearing this, and all stood up and bowed to the Yu Alliance Leader and said, "Thank you, the Alliance Leader."

At this time, the ancient hall master who was bowing to the ground was trembling all over. He looked up at the Yu Alliance Leader and said in a trembling voice: "I know my crime... I should not deceive the Alliance Leader. I hope the Alliance Leader will spare my subordinates..."

The leader of the Jade Alliance looked at the ancient hall master who was kneeling on the ground, smiled and said, "Since the founding of this alliance, fortunately, the master of the alliance and his brothers have worked hard to help. The master of the ancient hall has made great contributions. He deceived everyone and lied that the ambergris came from... It's a trivial matter, haha, the face is his own, and the master of the ancient hall himself doesn't want it, so the leader of the alliance has to follow the wishes of the ancient hall master."

Suddenly, his tone changed and he said in a deep voice: "You have received the goods that the brothers in the Greed Mo Alliance have worked hard to do, but they are not allowed... That is, the things in the Greed Mo Alliance, so the brothers in the Alliance will deal with them. What do you think?"

The Lord of the Gu Hall was stunned when he heard this, and knew that no one in the alliance would be willing to plead for him at this time. The Lord of the Yu Alliance said this as fair, but it actually caused the public to be angry. He kowtowed and made a sound: "Then... all the subordinates of the property have not moved. The subordinates are willing to return it to the alliance. I hope the leader will spare his subordinates..."

Seeing that he was so greedy and afraid of death, Luo Xiaoyao couldn't help but sigh secretly. The leader of the Yu League did not agree with his words. He looked at Mo Buli for a moment and said with a smile: "Master Mo Tang called him "Flying in the Sky and Earth". It is indeed worthy of being famous, and his alertness is even more comparable to the situation."

Mo Bushan smiled embarrassedly: "The leader was too awarded."

"When Lord Mo took a boat to leave Xiazhou and went west to Shuzhong, he sneaked into the river one hour later, and made the leader invite the seniors who were secretly accompanying him to look at the river and sigh, haha, it is really amazing. It is normal to meet one or two people with martial arts in the world. How can Lord Mo recognize someone to follow him?" Geng Gongfeng asked with a smile.

Mo Bushan glanced at Luo Xiaoyao and replied: "If it weren't for someone with the Dan Realm in the world, it would be difficult to cover up the cultivation aura. That person...oh, it should be the worshiper around the leader, right?" Geng Gongfeng smiled and refused to answer, as if he had agreed.

"I have a habit of running away from the world. I still pay attention to those who are close to me. That day, I found that the worship of the Qi seems to be a state of Returning to Truth. With the mental state of a person nearly 60 years old, if he possesses martial arts, he must not only be a return to Truth cultivation. He knows that he deliberately concealed it and did not expect that he was sent by the leader."

"At that time, my subordinates were alert, so they arrived at a place where the water flowed unhurriedly. With their own little water nature, they sneaked into the river. I thought that the worship was not allowed to do anything to my subordinates."

Not only was everyone good at light skills, but he was naturally unmatched in the alliance. Everyone nodded when they heard this, but Luo Xiaoyao's expression remained unchanged, while Shang You's face also made a sneer.

"After my subordinates dived ashore, they looked for a ferry and boarded the boat, but they never met the worship again."

Geng Gongfeng nodded: "Master Mo has experienced the old Taoist, and his ability to climb the sky is extraordinary, and his ability to achieve lightness is even more extraordinary, powerful, and powerful."

Luo Xiaoyao thought to himself that everyone was good at stepping on the air that day, probably the method of "climbing the sky" that Geng Gongfeng said.

Mo Bushan smiled with a slight smug look and said, "What are you talking about? This time I went to Shu to look for treasure because when I was riding a boat a few years ago, I accidentally heard several literati talk, saying that when Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty took refuge, he gave the "Lady of Guo's Spring Tour" to the prefect of Chengdu at that time, and later it was taken to the Shu Kingdom Palace."

"I thought this thing was rare, and the guards in Shu's palace were very strict. If I could get it, I would have a great chance of winning the position of worship." This was honest, and Lin Yi and others nodded in agreement.

"The Shu Kingdom's palace is very big. After searching for two days, my subordinates could not find out where the treasure map was hidden. I caught a eunuch and wanted to ask. But before the guy could ask his subordinates, he suddenly shouted for help and attracted a group of guards. However, with his subordinates' light skills, it took a lot of trouble to get out..."

"At that time, I thought I had already alarmed the snake, Buyi went to the palace immediately, so I waited for seven or eight days and sneaked into the palace again." After a pause, Mo Bushan glanced at Luo Xiaoyao intentionally or unintentionally, "It's a pity that I couldn't find the treasure map, but I accidentally found a sword hidden in a long box. When I took it out to watch, I saw the sword flashing coldly and air conditioning. I thought it was a sword. I wanted to put it in the box and took it away, but was discovered by the guards in the palace. So I broke out with my sword and returned to the alliance."

"I wanted to get the "Lady of Guo State's Spring Tour", but I was fortunate to get the sword. I thought it was because this sword had a fate with the leader, but I just entrusted my subordinates to get this sword. It was not my subordinates' contribution to getting this sword."

When Luo Xiaoyao heard his words, he knew his thoughts. He thought that everyone was good at predicting that no one would prove it, and that the sword had no name engraved. When he flattered the leader of the Jade Alliance, he also used the leader of the Jade Alliance as a shield. He thought that this was not when he explained the reason, he had already learned the whereabouts of Shui Longyin, so he had to act according to the opportunity, so he was calm.

After hearing this, the leader of the Yu family tapped his palms and smiled: "It sounds simple to get a sword in this trip, but it is actually extremely dangerous. Master Mo does not need to be humble. This leader has already learned about the experience of the three masters in catching treasures. It can be said that they are all heroic courageous. Okay, okay, let me treat you to three of you." He raised the wine cup in front of him and drank it.

"Thank you, the leader." Lin Yi and the other two hurriedly got up and raised their bowls to drink the wine.

The leader of the Yu League signaled Lin Yi and the other two to sit down, looked at the ancient hall master who was still kneeling on the ground and said, "Today's great joy, it also caused some trouble. Masters, how should we deal with the affairs of the ancient hall master?"

Lin Yi and others looked at each other, knowing it in their hearts that after robbing the property of passers-by merchants, each hall secretly detained a little before handing over to the main hall. However, there was no such large number as the ancient hall master. When they heard the Yu Alliance Master ask, they all smiled bitterly.

Everyone knew that the Yu Alliance Leader's move was nothing more than killing the chicken to warn the monkey, but it was difficult to answer. While hesitating, the Lord Gu knelt and turned around and bowed to the several Lords one by one, saying, "I am sorry for all brothers. I hope you can think of the fact that you have been the leader of the alliance for three years... those property are still there, and Gu is willing to return it to the alliance. I hope you all forgive me..."

Seeing that Lin Yi and others hesitate, the master of the Gu Hall knew that there was no hope, so he turned around and kowtowed to the Yu Alliance Leader and said, "Principal, please spare my life, I hope to spare Mr. Gu's family."

As the leader of the alliance center, he knew the rules of the alliance. He was so greedy that he was enough to die. He was afraid that his family would suffer, so he begged for mercy.

The leader of the Yu Alliance sighed and said, "This alliance is not as bad as his family. You can rest assured. You have made a lot of contributions to the alliance over the past three years. You could have let you live a life, but... this matter is extremely complicated, and you will understand later."

After saying that, he stood up, with a majestic expression and said in a deep voice: "Xingyu Hall, Xiaofeng Hall, all the masters."

Lin Yi and others stood up quickly, clasped their fists and said, "I'm here."

"All the hall masters can follow Mr. Geng. Mr. Tan takes the ancient hall master with him and take out the property where the ancient hall master hides silver. Then follow Mr. Geng's arrangements and discuss the matter of offerings tomorrow."

Lin Yi and others hesitated a little when they heard this, but saw Geng Gongfeng step forward to seal the Qi Ji of the ancient hall. After looking at each other, they all sat down one after another, bowed and said, "Subsidiary obeyed the order."

Seeing this, Luo Xiaoyao and the people in the hall stood up one after another and wanted to follow him, but they heard the leader of the Yu League say: "The brothers in the alliance will have fun on the island. It will not be too late to leave the island after the offering is selected tomorrow. Deacon Yan..."

But seeing a person walking at the door, Deacon Yan was facing everyone into the island. Deacon Yan saluted and said, "Please give orders to the leader."

The leader of the Yu League chuckled and said, "Before you know it, it's getting late. Please greet the brothers in the league and add wine and food. Everyone can have a good time to drink and arrange a rest in the bathroom outside the courtyard tonight."

"Subordinates obey the order."

After saying that, the leader of the Yu League walked out slowly. The two Fengming Hall Masters and maids followed him. Geng Gongfeng said to the Ancient Hall Master who was slumped on the ground, "Are you up, Lord Gu."

The Lord of the Gu Hall looked at everyone, sighed, stood up, followed Geng, Tan and others to leave the conference hall.

When the rest of the people saw that the leader of the Yu Alliance had left, they all breathed a long sigh, but heard Deacon Yan laugh and said, "You can enjoy your best brothers, but don't get drunk."

At this time, several servants lit lanterns. At this time, everyone was not restricted and sat on the table. Deacon Yan probably knew that these people in the martial arts world were so habitual, so he didn't know that they were so angry that he left the hall with a brief greeting.

Xu San then moved Xiu Dun to the side of Luo Xiaoyao's desk, looked around and drank with a gangster who were playing with fists and drinking, and whispered: "Don't you think there is something wrong with the two guardians?"

Luo Xiaoyao and Shang You looked at each other, and Shang You said, "I hope to hear the details..."

Xu San whispered: "As a matter of saying that you will get the money hidden by the ancient hall master and ask the ordinary brothers in the hall to go. Why do you need the hall masters to go? You shouldn't ask the hall masters to carry them, right?"

Luo Xiaoyao and the others realized that what Xu San said was reasonable, so they both nodded. Xu San continued, "You are not allowed to follow your brothers in the hall... Wouldn't it be detrimental to the master?"

I thought I was wrong, so I shook my head again: "If I were to attack several hall masters, I wouldn't bring them together and defeat them one by one. I really can't understand what the league leader meant, so why is this extremely complicated?"

Seeing Luo Xiaoyao, Shang You and the other two thought about it, and said, "There is another thing, I wonder if you have noticed it?"

Luo Xiaoyao was stunned and shook his head and said, "What's the matter?"

"Just just now, the leader of the alliance ordered... all the people in the halls to rest in the guard building tonight, right?"

Before he could see something strange, Shangyou nodded: "What's wrong with this?"

"The title of Suwei is mostly the title of the royal family and the court's personal soldiers, and there has never been such a title in the world." Xu San looked fearful.

Luo Xiaoyao and Shang You were not as experienced as Xu San. After hearing what he said, he suddenly woke up and was shocked.

"Two guardians, look at the brothers in this hall, there are more than fifty people. It can be seen that the guard building should be very large... I always feel that something is wrong. Please ask the two guardians to drink too much of this wine."

Luo Xiaoyao was not a good person to drink, so he nodded: "Dashi Xu has never been to this main hall? Did Master Lin never tell Deashi Xu about the situation in this main hall?"

Xu San smiled and said, "Even the guardians can't go to this main hall, so how can the subordinates get there? But this main hall... I heard from the hall master that this island may not be the main hall of the Xingdao Alliance. The secret of the leader's actions cannot be guessed by the hall master."

Shang You continued, "The master said this: Every time you have something to see the leader, you must let the shopkeeper of a restaurant in the city pass on it. Because every time you meet the leader, you are on this island, everyone says this is the main hall. Lord Lin once said that the manor here may be just a villa where the leader will rest occasionally."

Xu San nodded: "I heard that ordinary fishermen have also entered this island, but this manor is not allowed to enter. Hehe, sometimes subordinates have wanted to sneak in, but they think that if the alliance is not allowed by the leader, the members of the alliance will trespass on this island and cut their hands and feet, and they will not dare to come."

Luo Xiaoyao thought: "If something happens, then what happens at this moment... If the leader of the Yu Alliance is not good for us, and this island is nearly ten miles away from the land, how can we get out?"

Xu San smiled when he heard this: "Many brothers in the hall are fishermen. The master is cautious in his actions. Whenever he comes to this island, he will ask several brothers to drive fishing boats to wait in this lake. This time he is no exception."

After saying that, he took out an arrow from his body and whispered: "You must be careful of others. Three years ago, the Lord of the Hall took us and the Lord of the Ancient Hall to compete for the territory and eat bad things, and he had a backup plan for everything."

It turned out that Lin Yi and the Lord of the Gu Hall were mortal enemies before. After being subdued by the leader of the Yu Alliance, they called each other brothers in the Taoist alliance. Luo Xiaoyao saw Xu San take out the arrow and looked at Shangyou. He wanted to ask him if he knew Lin Yi’s arrangement. Shangyou smiled bitterly and took out the arrow from his sleeve, shook his head: "I think I can't use this thing, so I didn't give it to my senior brother..."

Luo Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Everyone is together, if there is any change, one branch is enough."

At this time, Deacon Yan walked in, looked at everyone and smiled, "I wonder what the brothers have eaten? Is the wine enough?"

Everyone was aware of it. When Deacon Yan asked, he knew it was time to leave the table, so he stood up one after another. Deacon Yan smiled and said, "Then you guys, let's go with Yan." After saying that, he turned around and came out.

Everyone followed and saw several servants leading the way in advance, following the back of the conference hall, walking through a straight stone road, and saw a side door on the courtyard wall. After leaving the side door, they saw a forest again. When they entered the forest, several rows of houses appeared in front of everyone.

"This house was newly built, and the items inside were complete. Each room can sleep seven to eight people. You can arrange it yourself. You can't enter the courtyard without permission. The rest of the place... can be used to take care of yourself. Please rest early." After speaking, Deacon Yan bowed and left.

There are three rows of houses, each row of nine rooms, which is enough for everyone to rest and sleep. After Luo Xiaoyao and Shangyou all chose their own rooms, they chose one in the last row of houses and lit the oil lamp with fire sticks. They saw a wooden bed spread across the east side of the room, and the bedding was complete. Luo Xiaoyao said to Shangyou: "The night is good, junior brother, let's go to the island for a walk..."

Shangyou knew that he had something to say, so he nodded and said ok. The two of them went back to the east and came to the slope of the island on the east side about two hundred feet away from the house. At this time, the sky was full of stars and the night was charming, but Luo and Shang had no intention of watching. After a brief look at the surroundings, they knew that there was no one nearby. Shangyou said, "What are the plans for senior brother?"

"I want to sneak into the Tingtao Courtyard to investigate, but I may affect my junior brother." When he arrived at the conference hall, he heard the introduction of He Da, and knew that Lin Yi's gift-giving room entered the courtyard, and that was Tingtao Courtyard.

"It's okay for me. This time, the leader of the alliance will know when I will return. He also said that the disaster is not as good as his family, and this sword is owned by the senior brother. In addition, the master Lin treats me very well and will definitely help me. The senior brother doesn't have to worry, but he is afraid that he will be rare..."

"Then Geng and Tan, the two worshippers and the hall masters have left the island. The remaining two female hall masters of Fengming Hall are as skilled as those of the Yu Alliance Master, and they are all small successes. As for Deacon Yan, I have not reached the realm of divine thoughts. I will be careful and I will not be discovered. If I fail, I will fight with reason at that time. Thinking that the leader's style of acting may not hurt my life, otherwise how can I convince the public?"

Shang You shook his head and said, "People's hearts are unpredictable. This world is full of the strong and powerful. What's more, the Xingdao Alliance is originally a group of thieves. Why not just take it slowly first?"
To be continued...
