Master Tongming said: "It's easy to say that when the Qinglong Lord killed the swordsman Yin of Shanchuan, I am afraid that he heard the rumor that 'Haitian Yishe' is the secret treasure of martial arts, in order to get the scabbard of Shanchuan in the hands of the hero Yin."

"That's right," Xie Yun said, "this rumor is still there, and even Beidou believes it - Lu Cun wanted to take it for himself, but he was greedy and looked down on it. Jumen and Cao Ning used it as a bait to instigate the Mingfeng Tower in the Forty-eight Villages. Wenqu was at that time. I want to find this thing to prolong Cao Zhongkun's life... But Master, the problem is, you said that Nan Dao and Shan Chuan Jian had martial arts secrets in their hands. This is a matter of reason, but what about General Wu Fei? There is no relationship, how is it related to the 'sea and sky' on the rivers and lakes? Before Miss Wu was hunted down, I would never have imagined that, but the strange thing is that Beidou knew about it."

Immediately afterwards, Xie Yun did not answer Master Ming, and said again: "I later thought, either General Wu himself accidentally leaked the secret of 'Hai Tian Yi Se' - but this may not be a big deal, he has been lurking in the Northern Dynasty for more than 20 years. Years, he has always been cautious and cautious. He has never even confessed to his wife and children, so how could he easily leak it to Beidou? So there is only another explanation, that is, there is another person behind this incident, and this person also participated The sea and the sky are the same color covenant, and I am very afraid of it."

Tong Ming said: "Fear, what do you say?"

"If there is one thing, I don't want others to know, but there are many participants, in addition to those who hold water ripples, there are also many assassins hiding in the dark to testify, although each of them has incomplete evidence, and some People are dead without evidence, but I still don't know if there is any subtle connection between them, and once I attack one of them, it's easy to be shocked, and things are likely to develop in the direction I don't want. What should I do?" Xie Yun said in a very soft voice, "I can't take risks, I can only stir up the water and use a rumor that seems more reasonable and more popular to drive all parties to believe it, and then some of them rush to it. , Some people are fighting openly and secretly, and some even want to use this thing to seek other things... This way, I have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and kill people with knives, how about Master, does this method sound familiar?"

Tong Ming shook his head and said, "It's unbelievable. Listening to your words makes people shudder."

Xie Yun said: "Even this 'rumour' is ready-made, at least Zheng Luosheng, the master of Qinglong, has always believed in it."

The smell of Jiaoxiang is very strong, and after smelling it for a long time, even the nose becomes numb.

The master and the apprentice sat opposite each other, no one said a word for a long time, only the sound of the wooden Buddha beads colliding with each other in the hands of the same name could be heard.

I don't know how long it took before Tong Ming said, "Anzhi, have you ever thought about it, these are just guesses? Is it possible that it is because you have always been brooding about what Zhao Yuan did back then, and you can't help but be extreme, thinking that everything is a Yīn conspiracy, and every conspiracy must have his share? According to you, when Qinglong master killed Shanchuanjian, Beidou besieged Nandao, and Huobao master poisoned and framed old castle master, he should have planned it? It's too... Zhao Yuan was just a child with a broken family back then."

"That's right." Xie Yun said, "If I guessed correctly, the person who started the game was not my uncle, but the one who made the covenant between the sea and the sky."

Tong Ming: "You said Liang Shao."

"Liang... father-in-law... kiss what? kiss?"

The night was blurry, and the torches in the Qimen Valley were like torches. Li Sheng stuck his whole body on the wooden box that was taken out from the Qimen gate. The first board revealed some clues in the box, and found that it was full of thick letters.

The big trash surnamed Li didn't dare to touch other places for the time being. He worked hard for a long time on the small gap that was opened, and finally saw the three characters on an envelope.

Others were onlookers at first, but they all got bored and ran away after a while. Ying Hejun ran to the side to feed the snake, while Yang Jin and Wen Yu, who was ordered to come to send money, were surrounding Zhou Fei to "study" the swordsmanship. Wu Chuchu sat with pen and paper to watch the battle, listening to Li Yan's explanation. Write down like an enclave.

Zhou Fei held a wooden stick in her hand and carried the swords and swords of General Wen and Yang Jin. She passed between them sideways, and with a flick of her figure, she avoided the saber attacking from General Wen himself. Taking the knife to intercept, Zhou Fei moved from bottom to top to "break" and stabbed the back of his knife impartially. Yang Jin's long knife went astray and collided with Wen Yu's sword who was too late to stop. The two were equally skilled. , at the same time a numb hand, each took two steps back.

"Stop fighting." Wen Yu gasped and retracted the sword, "I am old when I am behind the Yangtze River and I am old. Thank you Miss Zhou for teaching me. If you come to me again to avenge the broken sword, I can't stand it. It's over - what did Young Master Li just say?

Li Sheng turned the wooden box over to show him, and asked, "Who is this Mr. Liang referring to? Isn't that the old Mr. Liang Xiang?"

Wen Yu took the towel from his personal soldiers to wipe the sweat off his face, and replied, "It's not impossible, Mr. Liang had a lot of friends in his early years, and he had a lot of friends with his predecessors, otherwise, where would the emperor go when he was traveling south? There are so many masters to escort? There is also the Great Medicine Valley, so far many things have been preserved in him."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked over, and even Ying Hecong raised their heads.

Li Sheng couldn't help but ask, "And my grandfather too?"

"Well," Wen Yu sat down by the bonfire, "especially with the old village owner Li. It is said that Mr. Zhou was sent by the old village owner to study with Liang Gong."

☆、Chapter 156

Zhou Fei blurted out, "Ah, what?"

Li Sheng also put down the broken box in his hand that was incomprehensible, while Li Yan immediately threw Wu Chuchu aside, leaned over and squeezed Li Sheng aside and waited to listen.

Who knew that Wen Yu waved his hand and smiled: "Hey, why are you talking about Shangguan behind your back? Don't talk about it."

General Wen is a middle-aged soldier with a dignified appearance. He is famous both at home and abroad. At first glance, he looks like a dog. Who would have expected him to be a slut who would run away after hanging his appetite?

Li Yan hurriedly begged: "General, we are very strict, just say a little, no outsiders will know."

Yang Jin and Ying He looked at each other from the two outsiders, wondering if they should roll away.

The more anxious Li Yan was, the more amused Wen Yu felt, and she shook her head with a stern face, and said, "No, no."

Although the forty-eight villages were not so strict, the master family was supreme in the hearts of the younger generation—in any case, Zhou Fei and the three of them never dared to inquire about the elders when they were children.

Li Yan was so curious that she scratched her heart and said anxiously, "No, why are you still mentioning this? General Wen, how can you do this!"

Wen Yu couldn't help laughing: "If I don't say anything today, don't the little friends want me to go?"

When Zhou Fei heard the words, she silently picked up the long wooden stick and moved to the side, with the meaning of "You can go and try it out".

"Forgive your life, spare your life," Wen Yu said slowly after teasing the little girl enough, "Well, it's nothing, Mr. Zhou also mentioned it to me by accident. He suffered a natural disaster when he was young, so that his family was destroyed. By chance, he was rescued by the passing master Li Laozhai and took him home to take care of him for a few years. Mr. Zhou was born in the 52 library, and he never forgets reading poetry and books. When he got older, Li Laozhai was worried that there were no famous teachers in the village. After taking him, he was sent to the Liang family in Jiangnan."

Li Yan said: "Ah, didn't my aunt and uncle know each other since they were very young? Isn't that childhood sweetheart?"

Wen Yu smiled without saying a word.

Zhou Fei asked, "So the study in my house was my father's from the very beginning?"

Li Yan hurriedly followed, "How old did my uncle leave Shushan?"

Zhou Fei didn't know what to think, and said again: "Did my mother bully him when she was a child?"

Wen Yu: "..."

Li Sheng didn't want to inquire about the history of his elders at all, he just wanted to ask rationally, since Liang Shao and Li Laozhai were the same, why did Xie Yun bring Liang Gong's token to the Forty-eight Village that year and was almost cut off by his aunt.

But his neck stretched out two feet long, and he couldn't speak.

Li Yan: "By the way, when did my aunt marry my uncle, General, did he tell you this?"

Zhou Fei suddenly coughed and poked Li Yan's back with a wooden stick.

Li Yan waved her hand without turning her head, and waved away Zhou Fei's stick: "Wait, I'll ask..."

Before she finished speaking, someone slowly answered behind her and said, "I never said that."

Li Yan: "..."

She jumped up like a rabbit whose butt was poked, and turned around angrily: "...Uncle."

Zhou Yitang folded his hands in his sleeves, and although his face was not sullen, it was inexplicable that no one dared to be presumptuous. The soldier next to him holding the lantern bowed his head, as if he was trying to count the ants on the ground.

Zhou Fei had never been so embarrassed when she was so big. She raised her head to look at the treetops, then turned her head to look at Li Sheng. Li Sheng glared at her, so she had to bow her head and count the ants with the little personal soldier.

Zhou Yitang said to Wen Yu, "I thought about making arrangements here. The faster the march, the better. I was planning to ask you to discuss it. I only came to take a look when I saw that you didn't return the account for a long time."

Wen Yu reached out and rubbed the beard on his lips, and stood up as if nothing was wrong: "Mr. trouble."

Zhou Yitang nodded, glanced at Zhou Fei, and suddenly said, "Your mother is no more pampered than you since childhood, and she never bullied others when she was a child."

Zhou Fei: "..."

"Uncle," Li Sheng finally found the opportunity to speak, and asked quickly, "What kind of grievances did Liang Gong and our Forty-Eight Village have afterward?"

Zhou Yitang took a step.

Although Li Sheng has gradually begun to intervene in the affairs of Zhaizhong in recent years and talked with Zhou Yitang, he is still inexplicably nervous. Seeing that he has not said a word, he hurriedly said: "It's not an important thing, in fact, I'm just casual..."

"That year, the old village owner was attacked by Beidou and returned with serious injuries. Naturally, Cao Zhongkun refused to let go of the forty-eight villages," Zhou Yitang said. In the name of suppressing bandits, the old village owner was really helpless, and when he was in the most critical time, he once asked Liang Gong... the court for help."

When Zhou Fei heard this, her heart twitched for no reason.

For some unknown reason, although she had never seen this grandfather who passed away early, she suddenly felt that the words "asking for help from the imperial court" were very heavy. He took a group of people in the 100,000-strong mountain and built a peach blossom garden as a refuge. He ridiculed himself for "becoming a bandit", and made three "worship" oaths. Although he also had a relationship with Liang Shao, he also escorted Younger brother Nandu's achievements, but Zhou Fei thought for no reason that he might not be willing to speak to them. How far did he get to say the word "please ask for help"?

There was silence all around, and even Li Yan carefully held her breath.

After a while, Zhou Yitang continued: "At that time, the imperial court was worried about internal and external troubles, and it was a time of trouble. Mr. Liang... Mr. Liang... was really powerless for the overall situation. Trick, steal the military talisman, and deceive out 50,000 soldiers."

Wen Yu said softly: "At that time, it was the forty-eight strongholds and the natural moat, which were the two major barriers in the middle of Shu, to protect the foundation of my dynasty, and my lips were dead. It is not necessarily a long-term plan for Mr. Zhou to scare off the Northern Army."

"Thank you for excusing me." Zhou Yitang smiled briefly, and then added, "I feel ashamed of Mr. Liang's... many years of cultivation, so I left the official position, abolished martial arts, returned what I learned in my life, and escaped Forty-eight Villages—great and grudge can’t really be talked about, your aunt may only think of the old things occasionally, and she’s still a little brooding, right? Okay, everyone is dead, there’s nothing to say, these days the army is in chaos, rest early.”

After he finished speaking, he patted Zhou Fei's arm casually, and turned around and left with Wen Yu.

In the cold study on the coast of the East China Sea, the lid of the teacup in Xie Yun's hand collided with the teacup lightly, and a "ding" sounded softly: "I know that when Mr. Li Laozhai suddenly heard bad news, in the same year, Mr. Zhou cut his bones and cut his bones. Ròu was still with his mentor and retired to Shu. After that, he never showed up again until Liang Shao died. With his cleverness, he probably sensed something, but even the chief of Li may not be aware of it. Mr. Gan Tang has always been By default, he 'betrayed his teacher', but if that's the case, why did Liang Shao take the whole family into his hands before he died? I think it's clear at a glance who is ashamed of whom. The 'Pouring Sorrow' is rare, and cannot be separated from the relics of Yaogu. There is also the Shanchuan Sword - the death of the Shanchuan Sword is the most typical, it seems to be a 'criminal sin', but think about it carefully, where did this jade come from ? Where did the rumor that Haitian Yise is a martial art treasure come from, and what is the testimony?"

Gu Tianxuan mentioned when he colluded with Mingfeng Tower to invade the Forty-Eight Villages. The lost Guiyang Pill obtained by Mingfeng Tower and Feng Wuyan, who was sheltered, seemed to have come and gone without a teacher. Mu Xiaoqiao, who has traveled thousands of miles in a day... all make people imagine.

No wonder there is so much talk about it being called a martial art treasure.

The remuneration paid by Liang Shao not only made these assassins who collect money to kill people willing to be driven, but also weave a huge illusion half-covered, which can give full play to the imagination of Jianghu people.

Tong Ming shook his head: "Of course there is some basis, but the old man heard that I am afraid that you are mostly guessing. After all, there is no proof. Let me ask you, if it was Liang Shao back then, why did he let the ripples of water wander around?"

Xie Yun said: "Yes, why does he let the ripples of the water wander around? Why did he invite those people with imaginative identities to be 'witnesses'? The reputation of 'Ape and Monkey Shuangsha' is too bad. I think this witness can gather all the famous assassins in the world. If it is just to keep secrets, wouldn't it mean that the fewer people involved, the better? Assassin, then whose throat is this 'thorn' stuck in?"

Tong Ming's drooping eyebrows moved slightly: "You mean..."

"Master Li of the Forty-Eight Villages, the son of Shanchuanjian, the daughter of General Wu, and even Huo Liantao, the owner of Huojiabao, there are Jianghu people, ordinary people, good people, and bad people, but none of them know what the water ripples are. Maybe the seniors who made the Haitian Yishi Covenant agreed to stop this matter, maybe because they were afraid of causing misfortune to their children - in short, the ripples of water have been passed down, but the content of the covenant is not. You know what I'm suspecting Is it, Master?"

Tong Ming smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know now whether it's your "Bone Bone Biography" that is bizarre, or what you said is bizarre. What do you want to say?"

"Even if you get the water ripples together, you may not really be able to spell out the content of the covenant, the mysterious 'water ripples', 'witnesses', the assassins you will never find in the rivers and lakes... They are all Liang Shao in 'that person' A thorn left in his heart, making him sleepless."
