Chapter 216 Fish from the Net(1/2)
As news comes one after another, there are more and more unfamiliar faces in Honglai City. Some people who are not so famous in the world are recognized as impersonation in Honglai City. After the two sides disagree, they fight. In the end, those impersonators sneak into the crowd and flee abruptly. Such things happen from time to time in Honglai City, making the entire city become mixed with dragons and snakes for a while.
However, this conflict will never happen on the sixth day of the Chinese New Year, because this day is one of the two overlords of Honglai City, the funeral and burial of the old leader of the Tie Palm Gang Yu and the young leader of the Tie Palm Gang. The Tie Palm Gang has not pursued the outsiders who have sneaked into Honglai City in the past few days, but it does not mean that they do not know that Yu Zhi, the leader of the Tie Palm Gang, just wanted to send his father and son away quietly.
The funerals of Yu Cheng and Yu Huan were held in a glorious manner. Yu Zhi specially invited the famous Qitian Temple Master from far and wide. According to legend, the first Temple Master of this Temple also set up a formation and cast spells for the Jiang family of Qin in Qin, and he had a profound Taoist practice.
The temple master was wearing a blue-clothed Taoist robe and two beards. After he yelled the bell and chanted the mantra, he wrote a series of strange and difficult runes on the yellow paper with cinnabar. He finished writing three pieces in one breath, and then he chanted them in front of Yu Zi with a talisman. After reading them, he handed one of the talisman papers to Yu Zi and said, "Master Yu, this talisman paper can keep you safe and worry-free, and all your wishes come true."
Yu Zhi took it respectfully, and then he heard the scepter raise his sword and murmur: "There are people who have their own paths, and ghosts have their own paths. In this life, the fate will be over, and blessings will be gathered in the next life. If you return to the Supreme Lord of Destiny, you can eliminate all sins."
After reciting the mantra, the talisman paper in his hand was placed on the candlelights on both sides. The two candlelights burst out into the sky like the real spirit manifesting, which surprised everyone present.
The snob shook his head and recited for a while. He picked up the lucky water in the bowl next to him and wet it with green leaves. He sprinkled a few drops on Yu Zi's body, and then sprinkled them one by one at the audience. After finishing the temple, he saw that the time was almost done, so he spoke loudly: "The auspicious time has arrived, go!"
Amid the loud shouts of the Qitianguan Guanguan, a group of mourning teams and countless heroes from the world came out one after another. Yu Jian, who was walking in the middle of the team holding the spirit card, felt very sad. If he could still force himself to deal with everyone a few days ago, he knew that he would say goodbye to his father and son this day, when he thought of the past between his father and his beloved son, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
As if the sacrificial master had calculated the time, everyone buried Yu Cheng and Yu Huan's coffin in Fengshui treasure land. After erecting a stone tablet to worship the two dead, heavy rain fell from the sky.
The Qitian Guanguan Master followed the trend and said, "There has been a passing feast and I am happy to see the rain."
Yu Qi, who was standing beside him, asked, "Immortal, what's this?"
Qi Tian Guanguan said, "This is a good omen, which means that the leader of Gang Yu can achieve everything he wants."
Although Yu Zhi didn't believe it very much, he still asked the elder brother who was managing the accounting department to pay more money to this viewer.
The master of Qi Tian Guan was happy when he heard this. He thought that God wanted to give money, but he still pretended to be profound and said, "Gangmao Yu is polite. People who practice Taoism don't care about this money. But since Gangmao Yu is sincere, I believe that what the gangmao thinks in his heart will come true soon!"
Yu Zhi just thought he was flattering himself and bowed: "Thank you, Immortal."
At this time, a gang member came to report. After whispering to Yu Ji for a few words, something strange appeared on Yu Ji's face, and he looked at the master Qi Tianguan with great respect.
The master of Qi Tianguan is also an old world. When he saw Yu Zhi looking at him like this, someone must have heard something that was beneficial to him. Therefore, he touched his two-character beard and pretended to be incredible.
Sure enough, Yu Zhi ordered his elder brother, "Brother, you can treat Xianchang and others here, and wait to double the reward for Xianchang. I want to go back to the Iron Palm Gang first, there is news about that person."
When Brother Yu Zi heard this, he held Yu Zi's arm and said, "Go, I'm here!"
"Yeah!" Yu Ji said that, holding two tablets, he ran back to the Iron Palm Help.
When Yu Zhi returned to the Iron Palm Gang, there was a person standing in the living room of the gang. The man was gray-haired and stood with his hands behind his back to look at everything in the Iron Palm Gang, as if he was recalling something.
When Yu Ji saw the person, he felt a lot of emotion and still called out: "Uncle Zhai."
When the old man heard this Uncle Zhai, he saw Yu Ji, who was soaked and holding two spirit cards, and said with a heartache: "Child, thank you for your hard work."
Yu Ji knew that this person was here, so there was news. Yu Ji asked the servants to go to the Tiezhangjiao's room to notify Mo Zhu, so he found someone to bring a piece of dry cloth, wiped the spirit card with Yu Cheng and Yu Huan's names written on it, and placed it next to his seat first.
Looking at Yu Zi, who was in a mess and wanted to wipe the spirit card clean, the old man sighed and said, "Nephew, I am so kind to change. I have fought with your father for most of my life, and now he has left, my heart suddenly feels empty. Oh, Yu Cheng and Zhai Wang from Honglai City were not applauding each other in the world. But because of a battle with him with him, I said that it depends on who is the most powerful person in Honglai City, which made the two sides go from being friends to being old and dead now."
It turns out that this person is Zhai Wang, the leader of Feixin Hall, the second largest force in Honglai City.
Yu Zhe clasped his fists and said to Zhai Wang: "Uncle Zhai, no matter what, I will never forget the kindness of your help to the Iron Palm Gang this time. I will only wait until I capture the Killing Sword A Da, our Iron Palm Gang and your Feixintang will be united to hold Honglaicheng together. After everything is stable, we will expand our power!"
Zhai Wang nodded and said, "Okay!"
Just as the two discussed the future of the Iron Palm Gang and Feixintang, Mo Zhu, who had already changed into a white brocade dress, came to the living room of the Iron Palm Gang. Four guards holding guns, swords and halberds behind him followed him in together.
When Yu Ji saw Mo Zhu coming, he welcomed him to the main seat of the living room. After Mo Zhu refused, he sat in the first seat of the guest seat. His four guards stood behind him in unison.
Zhai Wang looked at Mo Zhu, bowed and clasped his fists and said, "Zhai Wang in Feixintang greeted Mr. Mo Zhu."
Mo Zhu raised his hand and said, "Lord Zhai doesn't need to be polite. Thank you for your hard work these days. Are there any news about killing swordsmanship today?"
Zhai Wang said respectfully: "That's right. Since everyone is here, then Zhai will tell you about the news I received today."
"Please." Mo Zhu said to Zhai Wang.
After hearing this, Zhai Wang said, "According to the news from Yin hour today, my Feixin Hall was distributed outside and saw an old man who looked like a sword-killing sword on the big ferry boat heading south."
When Yu Jie heard this, he held the seat handles on both sides tightly, fearing that he would not be able to control himself.
Seeing that Yu Ji was eager to take revenge, Zhai Wang continued, "My hands and feet of Feixintang followed him, but lost his whereabouts in Ulan County. However, according to the news they sent back, the old man's headwear was exactly the same as the portrait, and he was carrying a long cloth bag behind him. He was 99% sure that he would be the killing sword."
Mo Zhu nodded and said, "With this sentence from Lord Zhai, you can be sure that it is a sword of killing. But why did he go from Honglai City to Ulan County so far? Are he going to take a boat from Ulan County to escape from Ulan County?"
Zhai Wang replied: "I thought so too, but it was the Chinese New Year that all the merchant ships going to sea stopped. I have investigated that it will not be until the tenth day of the New Year to go overseas. So I will rule out this idea for the time being. Until today, my subordinates sent back a big news from Ulan County."
Mo Zhu thought about it and said, "Wulan County is famous in the world and has been in time to maintain its business in the rain forest. However, he does not participate in the disputes in the world and will only provide assistance when others have difficulties. He is also Lin Zhong's biological brother of Liusanmen. Can Ada, who has to provoke the Qin officials after challenging our martial arts righteous path?"
Zhai Wang's eyes flashed with admiration for Mo Zhu and said, "Mr. Mo Zhu said very well, that's what A Da really did. The news sent back today said that A Dada of the Sword of the Sword killed Lin Shouye of Juxian Villa, and he still left the eight big words "The murderer of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the Sword of the
Mo Zhu's knuckles exploded one by one and then gathered into a fist and said, "What a courage!"
Zhai Wang didn't know if he should say something about Killing Sword Ada was arrogant or ignorant or that he was very skilled and brave. Zhai Wang told them about the information he couldn't understand the most: "Mr. Mo Zhu, Gang Master Yu, according to the hands and feet of my Feixintang sent to Ulan County. After that Killing Sword Ada did not escape like he killed Brother Yu and the Young Gang Master before. Instead, he rented a carriage in the county and turned back to the east. Not only that, he changed a carriage every time he arrived at a city, and he also walked on the official road. According to his posture, the one he wanted to go to in the end was not Qindu!"
When Zhai Wang said this, Mo Zhu and Yu Zhi were both surprised and said, "What!"
Zhai Wang couldn't figure it out, "This is what the information says. As for why he is so unscrupulous, I really can't figure it out."
Mo Zhu rubbed his eyebrows and thought about everything about Dian Killing Sword A Da. From Xie Fang's death when he first came into contact with him, to the disappearance of the pursuit order from the Jianghu in the past ten years, to the sudden appearance ten years later, he killed Yu Cheng, who was respected in the martial arts world, and now he killed the brother of Lin Zhong, the old man in the martial arts world, Lin Shouye, who was still hiding in front of him, but after killing Lin Shouye, he blatantly revealed his whereabouts and went to Qin Duxing. Mo Zhu only felt that various information in his mind were intersecting and colliding, but he could not put together any useful structure.
This means that the Hidden Sword Sect has never made a name in the world. If the news of the Hidden Sword Sect’s killing by Ada will come out, it will probably cause even greater storms in the world.
Seeing that they were all thinking hard, Zhai Wang stopped disturbing them.
Mo Zhu couldn't think of a reason, so he said, "But what else is there?"
Zhai Wang thought about it and said the last news he got in the morning: "This news has nothing to do with whether to say it or not, but since Mr. Mo Zhu asked, I should tell it out. This is the news that I just sent a message from Qin Du's hands and feet. After Lin Zhong, the fourth chief of the Six Gate, learned that his elder brother had died tragically, he knelt with the other nine chiefs of the Six Gate, begged in front of the gate of the Yi surname Wang Shiyu, hoping that he could reach out for help."
Yu Zhi sneered: "A half-baked martial arts man who is mixed in the officialdom, what can he do to help Lin Zhong find some killing sword Ada to take revenge? I think at most they are going to let Shi Yu ask Mr. Mo Zhu."
Mo Zhu chuckled and said, "Gangmaster Yu was joking. No matter how others say it, he is also a new king of the other surname. He is favored by the emperor and is different from those of us who are rough people in the world."
Seeing that they arranged Shi Yu, Zhai Wang followed and said, "I think so too, this Shi Yu is just the strength of a top-grade swordsman, so it would be fine if he agreed with his brotherly loyalty. But he asked the saint to come to the saint, and the saint immediately issued an order to dial a thousand black armored iron cavalry and ordered all the letters in the court to help. According to the time, they had at least arrived near Jinping City."
The smile on Mo Zhu's face suddenly disappeared, and a strange feeling surged in his heart. He always felt that there seemed to be some connection between Shi Yu and Ada. But when he thought of Shi Yu's little skill, he had to separate the two of them. He thought that Shi Yu could not capture Ada's Sword.
Yu Zhi saw that Mo Zhu's expression was wrong and asked, "What are Mr. Mo Zhu's concerns?"
Mo Zhu regained his friendly face and said, "I was wondering if the Thousand Black Armored Iron Cavalry is really that powerful and can help Shi Yu capture some Killing Sword A Da."
Yu Ji thought Mo Zhu had discovered something, but when he heard that Mo Zhu was afraid that Shi Yu would steal the first skill, he said, "Mr. Mo Zhu was worried too much. With Shi Yu's kung fu, he could not capture the Killing Sword A Da even if he had to bring another thousand black armored iron cavalry." In Yu Ji's view, the Killing Sword A Da had been identified as a congenital warrior by Mr. Mo Zhu. If he wanted to capture him, he could not rely on many people, but needed the strength of the same innate warrior.
After Yu Ji said this, Mo Zhu completely let go of his worries and said with a smile: "When the rain stops, we will set off and go south. If we encounter a sword of killing, it is best to snatch him and kill him halfway. If we can't meet him, we will go in the same direction as him. I don't believe that so many of us are good at Feixintang players, and we can still lose him."
Zhai Wang knew what Mo Zhu meant as soon as he heard this, and immediately said respectfully: "The Feixin Hall will never let Mr. Mo Zhu down!"
Mo Zhu praised: "Then it will be a blessing that the Lord Zhai has been working hard these days."
"I dare not! This is what Zhai should do." Even though he was older than Mo Zhu, Zhai Wang still said humbly in front of Mo Zhu.
The three of them looked at the pouring rain outside the house with their own thoughts, waiting for the moment when the rain stopped.
But this rain seemed to have fallen together within the Qin Dynasty. The rain kept falling, and it was still like this until late at night on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.
In the heavy rain in the south, Adazheng was sitting in a carriage rushing to the Magnolia City ahead. In front of the carriage, even the coachman wearing a straw raincoat and a straw hat was still wet with the heavy rain. He used his hand to wipe the rain on his face, thinking about why the old man on the carriage had to rush to Magnolia City. However, the old man gave twice the money for the carriage and asked to go to the official road, so he reluctantly accepted it.
Ada's face in the carriage looked a little pale, and his hand pressed on his right abdomen, as if he was injured. However, his expression was much easier than when he was walking along the way. Jin Wei asked him to kill all three people, and the rest was waiting for Shi Yu's arrival on the official road and handing over his reputation to him.
Ada remembered the experience of Ulan County and said to himself: "I am really less and less like a person from Wugu."
Walking against Ada in the rain were rows of black armored iron cavalry wearing straw raincoats and hats. They marched desperately towards the south under the command of Shi Yu.
Emperor Shengde issued an order on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year to ask Shi Yu and Lin Zhong to lead a thousand black armored iron cavalry to capture the thief, which moved Lin Zhong so much that they were overwhelmed. Then they immediately took the edict to go to Gao Jing, the commander of the Black Armored Army, to transfer a thousand black armored iron cavalry out, and went south without stopping. As one city passed, a city messenger would send a message. They also knew that the killing sword Ada was coming in the opposite direction of them. Lin Zhong was eager to take revenge, and except for giving the Black Armored Iron Cavalry an hour to rest and eat in the middle, all the rest of the time was spent on the road.
It was late at night on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, rain was still falling. When Shi Yu and Lin Zhong arrived at Magnolia City with a thousand black armored cavalry, the official messenger who had already been waiting at the east gate submitted the last spy, which read "The sword of the sword Ada will be about to arrive at Magnolia City."
Shi Yu handed the information in his hand to Lin Zhong for checking. A ugly smile appeared on Lin Zhong's messy face. He immediately said to Shi Yu: "Boss, should we lie on him!"
Shi Yu thought for a while and said, "We will lead five hundred black armored iron cavalry to ambush at the south gate of Magnolia City. You will lead five hundred black armored iron cavalry to guard the east gate here. After the sword sword Adaso enters the city, we will immediately close the two southeastern gates of Magnolia City, so that he can't escape with his wings!"
Lin Zhong agreed: "Okay!"
With Shi Yu's order, half of the black-armored iron cavalry followed him to the south gate.
Seeing that the rain kept falling, it was late at night, the coachman said to the car: "Brother-in-law, it's dark and rainy, should we stop and go to the surrounding farmhouses to shelter from the rain?"
A Dadao: "Just move forward. I will pay you the money for your car first. Are you going to break the contract?"
The coachman hurriedly said, "Brother-in-law, you misunderstood. The winter rain makes you cold. I'm afraid that you will feel uncomfortable after the cold air enters your body. Moreover, it's almost midnight now, and Magnolia City is afraid that the gate has been closed."
Ada thanked him for his concern and said, "Young man, you are intent. But I can assure you that the gate of Magnolia City ahead is definitely not closed. Maybe it is still open, just wait for us to go in."
The coachman said disbelief: "Brother-in-law, don't joke. I used to travel to Magnolia City at night, and the city gate was closed at the hour of Hai. If I hadn't collected your money, I really wouldn't want to go there."
Ada touched the remaining 100 taels of silver notes on his body and smiled and said, "Then can we bet on a bet?"
The coachman was also bored and wiped the rainwater on his face and said, "Okay! What are you going to bet on by your father?"
A Dadao: "I'll bet that the city gate is still open. If I lose, I will give you the last hundred taels of silver bill on my body. If you lose, you will take these hundred taels of silver bills and help me go to the city to do good deeds and porridge until it's used up, okay?"
When the coachman heard that he would not lose money, he agreed, "Okay! My father-in-law, then we have a bet."
Adao in the car: "Okay! We have a bet."
In Ada's opinion, today is the seventh day of the Lunar New Year. If Shi Yu can't ambush the next stop in Magnolia City, then Jin Wei took a look. Shi Yu did not deserve his reputation. It is worth it to buy gold for one hundred taels of silver notes. If Shi Yu had already ambushed in Magnolia City, then he would have fulfilled his wish in his heart if he had done a good thing by himself.
The coachman was now whipping the horse whip with all his might, wishing he could go to the front of Magnolia City in an instant. When he saw the city gate closed, he happily won 100 taels of silver. He was very relieved about Ada's integrity, because the father-in-law paid the double the bus before getting on the bus.
Riding a heavy rain like watering, the coachman finally arrived at Magnolia City halfway through midnight. It was completely different from what he expected. Not only was the gate of Magnolia City not only not closed, but torches were also lit on the city walls, and the road in the future was bright.
The coachman scolded: "Are you a ghost today? The city gate that was closed on weekdays is now so big after the Zishi period!"
When he heard what the coachman outside said, Ada sighed and said, "Jinwei, everything is as you expected."
