Siheyuan: I'm not happy, don't even think about having a good life

Were there any good people in the Donglin Party? Originally, there should have been some, but at the end of the Ming Dynasty, they only knew how to fight among the factions and exclude those who were different from them.

After Chongzhen ascended the throne and Wei Zhongxian fell, they became even more outrageous. Chongzhen went to court wearing a patched dragon robe and asked them to donate money. What did they do? They all cried poor and fooled Chongzhen like a fool.

By the time Li Zicheng, Wu Sangui and the Tartars entered the Pass, they were all very rich, including the merchants in Jiangnan.

Zhang Dajing in Sword Rain is said to be as rich as a country, isn’t that the case?

"It's good enough for you to know about this. Don't spread it around. I will take care of Zhang Hairui's matter!"

"Master, we're leaving now."

After the three people left, Hong Guan tapped lightly on the tea table. A minute later, he opened his eyes, left the house, and went straight to Zhang Hairui's mansion.

The closer we got to Zhang Hairui's residence, the more we found that there were many people following us. In the movie, Heishi took action on a rainy night, so it must be not far away.

When I arrived at the door, the gatekeeper had an arrogant look on his face, thinking that he was superior to others.

"Please inform me that I need to see Zhang Renfeng, the son of Master Zhang Hairui, for something important."

The guard looked at Hong Guan arrogantly and said, "Do you think you can see our young master whenever you want? What's your name? Do you know the rules?"

Hong Guan sneered when he saw the guard's concealed gesture. The so-called rule was money. They were really a bunch of snakes and rats.

"I don't understand what the rules are, but I know that if you don't inform Zhang Renfeng, everyone in the Zhang family will be in danger, and you will all die."

The guard who asked for money was about to curse when he was stopped by another guard. "Sir, you must give us your name, otherwise how can we inform the young master?"

Hong Guan nodded slightly. This guard was not completely stupid. "My name is Hong Guan, the owner of the Shiquan Liquor Store in the city."

"Please wait a moment. I will report it right away."

After the sensible guard went to inform Zhang Renfeng, Hong Guan looked up and down at the remaining guards, which made him feel uncomfortable.

"What are you looking at? I'm telling you, don't think you're so awesome just because you own a liquor store. Watch your eyes."

Hong Guan didn't care. Why would he bother with a dying man? "Your forehead is black. You will have a bloody disaster in the near future!"

The guard's face was furious, and he clenched his fists and was about to attack you. "You!"

At this time, another guard ran out and said, "Boss Hong, our young master wants to see you!"

"Thank you, please lead the way."

Just as he was about to step into Zhang's house, he felt a fierce murderous aura. Looking at the corner of the street, he saw a woman wearing a bamboo hat. His face could not be seen clearly, but among the black stones, there was only one famous female killer, Xiyu.

Hong Guan didn't care. When he walked into Zhang's mansion, he was amazed. This mansion covered an area of ​​at least ten acres, or more than three thousand square meters. There were ponds, flowing water, rockery, pavilions and other landscapes.

Coupled with the houses full of exquisite carvings, no one would believe that Zhang Hairui was not a corrupt official.

After many twists and turns, we arrived at the backyard and entered a large house, which was at least over a hundred square meters. According to the feedback from the appraisal technology, the pillars and beams in the house were all made of mahogany, and the furniture was made of huanghuali or small-leaf red sandalwood. Judging from the intricacy of the carvings, they were all made by famous artists!

It is so luxurious that even the current Ming Dynasty Palace cannot compare to it.

After walking a few steps inside, I saw a young man in gorgeous clothes and with an upright posture sitting at the table, like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath.

"You want to see me?" The words seemed casual, but there was a murderous intent in the voice. Anyone who heard a stranger say that the lives of the Zhang family were in danger would not be polite.

Hong Guan seemed not to notice anything and casually bowed, "It's me."

"You said that everyone in the Zhang family is in danger of death?"

"Yes, Master Zhang is an expert. He must have discovered that there are many strangers around the Zhang Mansion and has put it under surveillance."

"Are you one of theirs?"

"Mr. Zhang, you are joking. If I were one of them, how could I possibly come to remind you? I want to make a deal with you."

"Oh? What deal?"

"I heard that Master Zhang was sent to Kunlun Mountain by Master Zhang to learn martial arts because he was weak since childhood. His swordsmanship is superb. What I want to trade with Master Zhang is the sword manual of the swordsmanship."

Zhang Renfeng looked at Hong Guan with interest. "What can I get if I give you the Canci Sword Manual?"

"I can tell you who those people are outside, why they attacked the Zhang Mansion, who are the masters, and at the critical moment, I can save one of your people in the Zhang Mansion and leave incense for the Zhang Mansion. How about that?"

Zhang Renfeng's expression turned cold. "So you think that our Zhang Mansion can't escape this disaster. You are so arrogant to say that you want to protect the incense of our Zhang Mansion. I want to see what you can do!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Renfeng flew up, drew out the sword hanging on the pillar, and stabbed towards Hong Guan.

Hong Guan shook his hands, and the brass knuckles were already on his hands. He punched the sword. With a clang, Zhang Renfeng stepped back two steps and stared at Hong Guan's fist. "What a great strength!"

"Then am I qualified to negotiate a deal?"

"It's not enough!" As he said that, Zhang Renfeng thrust his sword forward again. This time he did not fight Hong Guan head-on, but played to the strengths of his two swords. The long sword was used for the main attack, with its speed and grandeur, while the short sword was used for surprise attacks, with its strange and dangerous attacks.

With the help of his own attributes and the attribute bonuses of the Goblin King Ring and the Wind Boots, Hong Guan has no problem defending, but it is difficult to get close.

If you defend for too long, you will lose. Zhang Renfeng used his inner strength, and his two swords became faster. At the same time, the sword light on the jagged swords flickered and inexplicably grew three inches. Hong Guan was caught off guard and was stabbed in the arm.

Just as a look of joy appeared on Zhang Renfeng's face, his expression changed, because the sword light only pierced Hong Guan's clothes, leaving a white mark on his skin, and did not break his defense at all.

Hong Guan showed a sinister smile, "Master Zhang, we've been fighting for so long, it's my turn!"

After saying that, he opened his mouth and let out a tiger roar. Although Zhang Renfeng was not paralyzed, he was also frightened and his body stiffened.

Hong Guan used the tiger-hug-head technique from Bajiquan, took a quick step forward, and changed to the top-elbow attack. By the time Zhang Renfeng reacted, it was too late. He could only drop his sword and block with his palm, and was knocked flying.

Hong Guan was relentless and took two steps, leaving two footprints on the ground. He then used an Iron Mountain Backstroke. Zhang Renfeng blocked the attack with both arms and was knocked flying. He felt all the bones in his body were broken.

With a bang, it leaned against the wall, causing cracks to appear on the wall. It felt like the whole room shook, and a lot of dust fell from the roof.

Zhang Renfeng's face turned red. After ten breaths, he put down his numb arms, let out a long breath, and his face gradually returned to normal.

Hong Guan became more and more curious about internal energy. Although his attack just now was not launched with all his strength, he still used 80% of his strength. If it were an ordinary person, he would have been killed long ago, but Zhang Renfeng did not even spit out blood.

"Bazi Fist, I never thought that this military boxing style could be practiced to such a powerful level by you, I admire you."

Hong Guan was stunned for a moment, then remembered that in the Ming Dynasty, Bajiquan had already existed, but it was called Baziquan. It was widely spread in the army, especially in the Qi family army!

"Excuse me, I'm just practicing casually. Compared with you martial arts masters, it's nothing."

"You are too modest. Your great skill can't even break my sword. I am blind to your ability.

I can give you the Canci Sword Technique, but I hope you can tell me the truth so that the Zhang family can make more preparations."

Hong Guan smiled and stretched out his hand, "Give me the sword manual, I'll tell you the information!"

Zhang Renfeng gave a bitter smile. Hong Guan had already given in to him just now. If he were to press on and attack, Zhang Renfeng's breathing skills would be enough to kill him ten times.

"Your Excellency, wait a moment."

A somewhat worn booklet was placed in Hong Guan's hand. He flipped through it casually, and with the help of his high spirit, he had memorized everything.

"The sword manual is great, it's exactly what I need. I'll return it to you!"

Zhang Renfeng was a little confused. "Your Excellency, what are you doing..."

"I've written it down."

Zhang Renfeng felt a little blocked in his chest. Is the gap between people so big?

"Since you have written it down, could you please tell me the information?"

Hong Guan drank his tea slowly, closed his eyes and recalled several people in the movie.

"Your father took half of Rama's body. The people from Black Stone came for this thing. This time, all the experts came out.

First is the Chakravartin. This man is very mysterious and has never shown his true face. He is good at using a long sword and his martial arts should be higher than yours. If it is a one-on-one life-and-death duel, the odds are 60-40 for you, with him taking 60 and you taking 40.

The second is Xiyu. She uses the Thirty-Six Moves of Water-Breaking Sword Technique to win by surprise. Compared with yours, her martial arts should be one level lower than yours. In a life-and-death fight, you injure her or kill her.

Next is Lei Bin. His weapons are Emei Spear and Flying Needle. He focuses on surprise attack. If you are prepared, he is no match for you.

The last one is the juggler, who is good at using two swords and knows some ancient magic tricks. After the two swords are soaked in oil, they can ignite a big fire, which can also have miraculous effects. His martial arts are similar to Lei Bin, but he is no match for you.

As for the other Black Stone assassins, although their martial arts are not as good as these four, many ants can kill an elephant, and your guards in the village are not something you can withstand."

Zhang Renfeng's face was solemn. If the Zhang family really had to face these masters, they would be in great danger!

"Do you have any idea to break the impasse?"

Hong Guan raised his eyes and glanced at Zhang Renfeng. "What other bargaining chips do you have?"

Zhang Renfeng paused, and after a moment of hesitation, he spoke, "I also have the Kunlun School's mental method, which is the Kunlun School's sect-protecting mental method, a fragment of the Eight Forms of the Cloud Dragon."

"Just a fragment?"

"The Kunlun sect has already fallen into decline. It was purged by the imperial court and the complete techniques were lost. Only fragments remain."

In fact, Hong Guan had already figured it out from the Canci sword technique just now that this should be evolved from the Zheng Liangyi sword technique, but some parts were a bit obscure, and it seemed that there was no complete sword technique.

"Okay, give me the secret method. After I read it, I will give you a plan that may give your Zhang family a way out."

Zhang Renfeng did not hesitate. He went to the bedroom, took out a booklet, put it in front of Hong Guan, picked it up and flipped through it. He felt a little confused as the formulas were a bit confusing, but he still memorized them.

He threw the booklet to Zhang Renfeng and chuckled, "It's daytime now, this is Nanjing City, they won't act so blatantly.

This is the Zhang family’s hometown. Your father was once the prime minister. Even though he has retired and returned to his hometown, his influence and connections are still there.

As long as we find the Jinyiwei and the local garrison commanders, they will definitely not stand idly by.

Even though the Black Stone Killer is a martial arts master, he is unstoppable in front of the army.

The last thing is to recruit experts. Your Zhang family is rich. You can take advantage of this opportunity to recruit some people from the martial arts world to serve as your bodyguards. It should be possible.

Finally, there are traps. If the Black Stone masters rush in, you can retreat, hide in the secret room, and wait for reinforcements."

Zhang Renfeng stood up and saluted Hong Guan. "Thank you for your plan. If my Zhang family can escape this disaster this time, I will definitely repay you in the future. Do you know when the Black Stone people will take action?"

"I don't know, but I guess that in order to avoid any more trouble, it should be in the near future, and they will choose a rainy night when the line of sight is blocked and the sound is not easy to be transmitted. The signal arrow is launched into the air and the effect is greatly weakened. It is the best time!"

Zhang Renfeng bowed again and was supported by Hong Guan. "No need to do that. This is a deal. We are done. If the Black Stone people start to attack and your Zhang family is defeated, I will protect the last bloodline of your Zhang family."

After seeing Hong Guan off, Zhang Renfeng immediately went to find Zhang Hairui. Hong Guan no longer cared about what happened afterwards, as his goal had been achieved.
