It was called "Chang'an" and "Jingzhao" in Fengyuan ancient times. It was the ancient capital of many dynasties, and it was much more prosperous than Jining, Yanzhou and other places.The inn where Tao Mengzhu stayed was near the west of the city, relatively close to the market. Yang Cheng and his two led the horse and walked over there, exchanging information with Tao Mengzhu, while walking towards the center of the city.

Talking about the purpose of this, Yang Dingtian only told him that the two of them came to look for Han Qingsheng, why he didn't mention the reason.Tao Mengzhu was a little surprised when he heard this: "Are you looking for Han Qingsheng?"

Yang Dingtian nodded, looking at Tao Mengzhu's attitude, he seemed to know something.

Sure enough, Tao Mengzhu frowned: "He was indeed in Fengyuan a few days ago, but he left three days ago."

"Oh? Did you see him?"

Tao Mengzhu followed the crowd absent-mindedly: "Yes. He came a day earlier than me, he looked a little hasty, and he didn't know what he was busy with." Thinking of Han Qingsheng's busy appearance at that time, he said, "And he saw It looked like he was hiding from someone, and he was obviously taken aback when he saw me, as if it was an incredible thing that I would appear."

Yang Cheng and Yang Cheng exchanged a knowing look.

"Just him?" Thinking of Xie Xun, Cheng Kun opened his mouth and asked.Han Qingsheng's reaction was so strange, could it be that they really guessed it?

Tao Mengzhu shook his head and said: "No, there's that kid named Xie." Then he suddenly pointed to the front and turned around, "We're here! The Xiaoxian Inn is just there, let's go! We'll talk up if we have something to say!"

What he was referring to was a well-decorated inn, with people coming and going at the door, obviously the business was quite prosperous, which was quite in line with Tao Mengzhu's personality.The topic was temporarily interrupted, Yang Cheng and his wife went upstairs together with Tao Mengzhu, and Xiao Er, who had been preparing for a long time, saw Tao Mengzhu, hurriedly and enthusiastically greeted the three of them to the designated box, and food was brought up soon .

"When I saw him, he was staying in the inn opposite." After drinking for three rounds and resuming the topic, Tao Mengzhu pointed out the window with his chopsticks. There was another inn there, which looked similar to this one. About the same size.Cheng Kun glanced along the window before saying, "He didn't say where he went?"

"I didn't ask," Tao Mengzhu replied indifferently. In fact, seeing Han Qingsheng's appearance, he knew that he probably couldn't ask anything, so he might as well not ask.

"What about the kid next to him?"

Tao Mengzhu gave him a strange look, a little surprised at Cheng Kun's excessive curiosity towards Xie Xun.Knowing that Cheng Kun was impatient, he reached out and touched his nose, and was about to say something to cover up, but Tao Mengzhu still said: "That child is very dependent on Han, so of course he went with him! He is a child With no relatives and no reason, of course, whoever treats him well depends on whom, isn't this a normal thing?"

Hearing this sentence, Cheng Kun's heart suddenly "shuddered", and his complexion changed slightly when he thought of something.

Noticing the change in his expression, Yang Dingtian frowned, and took over the topic naturally: "You said before that he looked hurried, as if he was hiding from people?"

Facing Yang Dingtian, Tao Mengzhu's expression was not so polite. He took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and said: "I guessed too. That person has always been very arrogant. He was arguing with me about something. In the middle of it, I suddenly received a letter and cursed, 'You bastard!' Then I hurried back and called Xie Xun to leave."

Dirty hair?

When Cheng Kun heard this sentence, he immediately turned his head to look at Yang Dingtian, who really looked thoughtful.Almost at the same time, the two thought of the Taoist priest they met outside the woods that night.

It's not for nothing that they think so. They all know Han Qingsheng. He is very competitive. He has been tirelessly challenging Yang Dingtian for so many years, and he has been defeated repeatedly. Only in the past few years has he improved.When he first met Cheng Kun, he started fighting without saying a word, which shows that he is not a person who is timid to fight.Such a person just heard that a certain Taoist priest came and fled in a hurry, which shows that he is extremely jealous of that person. Based on all these, the identity of that person is ready to be revealed.

Yang Dingtian once told Cheng Kun about his guess after that night, that most of the people they met that night were Taoists who had been in the limelight in recent years.This Baishang Taoist didn't know where he learned Kungfu. His Xuanming God Palm is powerful in martial arts, and its insidiousness is much stronger than Cheng Kun's "Phantom Yin Finger". He has really made a name for himself in the arena.

If there is a Taoist priest who can make Han Qingsheng afraid, apart from the one on Wudang Mountain, I am afraid that this Taoist priest is the only one.Coupled with the fact that the Taoist priest was in a hurry before and pointed out that he was going to Fengyuan, the combination of the two can naturally come to this conclusion.

Cheng Kun thought about it even more. The later apprentices of Taoist Baishang, Lu Zhangke and He Biweng, were always recruited by the Ruyang Palace. Would their master also...

Neither of them informed Tao Mengzhu of these speculations. After all, it was related to the secrets of the Mingjiao, so they broke off in a few words and talked about the next plan.

Tao Mengzhu's purpose is very simple, he just wants to go out for a trip, and intends to go with the two of them, Yang Dingtian wanted to decline this, but Tao Mengzhu used the words of the two of them on his sister's birthday before, and Cheng Kun helped him for some reason, so he was helpless. The two of them turned into a three of them, and an extremely bright torch was added, which caused the leader of the Yang University to complain endlessly.

Cheng Kun couldn't stop laughing at this. He deliberately helped Tao Mengzhu stay. After all, it feels so good to see Yang Dingtian suffer. Anyway, they will be on their way for most of the time, so it doesn't matter if there is one more person.

It's just that at night, Cheng Kun couldn't laugh anymore. Yang Dingtian was obviously dissatisfied with Tao Mengzhu's joining, so he used this excuse to give up his room and enter the room in a grandiose manner, giving Cheng Kun a good meal, which immediately attracted him He complained endlessly.But the man made it clear that this move was full of jealousy, and the reason was so good that it made people gnash their teeth. Cheng Kun had no choice but to stare at him fiercely when he woke up the next morning with a sore back and back pain.

Compared with the two of them, Tao Mengzhu's expression is much better. The sound insulation effect of this inn is obviously mediocre, and those two people are unrestrained in their actions, and ordinary people are just fine. After all, Tao Mengzhu has internal strength and lives next door In the middle of the night, I heard those voices [-]% or [-]% of the time. When I saw them early the next morning, I closed the door again without saying a word, and got into the house for a long time before I was willing to come out.

Such a thin-skinned reaction made Cheng Kun secretly laugh, and Yang Dingtian also secretly hoped that the man would retreat. Unfortunately, Tao Mengzhu's skin is a little thicker than they imagined, so he didn't mention it at all, just looked at the relationship between the two There was a little dodge in his eyes unconsciously.

After two days, his reaction gradually became normal, but his expression was gloomy, and he looked at the two of them with a complicated expression.

Tao Mengzhu asked the two of them why they rushed to Dadu in such a hurry, but they were all vague, and they stopped asking when they came and went, and simply regarded this trip as a trip, enjoying themselves at ease.Aside from always seeing some things that hurt the eyes and feeling a little irritated, the face has become more and more calm after training.

Under such circumstances, the three of them left again after two days in Fengyuan Panhuan, and rushed towards the location of the capital.

When the three of them arrived in Dadu, nearly ten days had passed, and it was already July, which was the hottest season, and the streets were bustling with steaming heat. Fortunately, the temperature here was much milder than that in the south, Tao Mengzhu Adapted well, but Yang Dingtian couldn't help frowning again and again.

For those who have grown up in Kunlun for a long time, this kind of life is really a kind of torture.

On the way, Yang Dingtian communicated with the people of the Ming Cult, confirming that Han Qingsheng had indeed brought Xie Xun to this neighborhood, but the hiding place was not yet known.After discussing with Cheng Kun, Yang Dingtian decided not to touch him for the time being, and went to separately investigate the information about the Dragon Saber.

The source of the news about Yi Zhengfeng was the Mingjiao deployment in the latent court. It is said that the court has just reached a cooperation with a hidden sect in the Western Regions, and the dragon-slaying knife is the token of cooperation.Yang Dingtian asked about the other party's appearance in detail, and confirmed that the Toutuo who captured Cheng Kun before were also among them.

Speaking of this matter, I have to mention the Vajra Men Tutuo that Yang Dingtian captured to save Cheng Kun. At that time, that person was arrested by Yang Dingtian and sent to the Yanzhou branch. After all, he still couldn't help revealing the secrecy of the sect.It's a pity that he was also left behind as an abandoned son, so he didn't know much, otherwise Yang Dingtian would not have been busy for a long time and failed to find Cheng Kun's whereabouts.

Later, Na Toutuo was secretly solved, leaving nothing but a message that the Vajra Sect intends to cooperate with the imperial court. Although Yang Dingtian sent someone to investigate the movement of the Vajra Sect, it was a pity that the other party hid it deeply and acted on a daily basis. It has always been secretive, and there is no gain for the time being.

For this old opponent who was not fighting for the first time, Yang Cheng and the two felt quite relieved, after all, they had fought against them before, and they knew the general idea of ​​the opponent's behavior style and even the martial arts.Last time, the opponent was in the dark and they were in the light, so that they lost the wind. This time the position was reversed, and the form was very beneficial to them.

At this time, the Mingjiao people did not find out where the Dragon Slaying Knife was hidden, but only had a rough range.Excluding the Impossible Land and some places they have already explored, there are only four places that are most likely: the Imperial Palace, Ruyang Palace, Chongguo Temple and Wan'an Temple.

When Cheng Kun heard the names "Wan'an Temple" and "Ruyang Prince's Mansion", Cheng Kun's heart was moved: These places... immediately paid more attention.

There have been certain personnel changes in these four places recently, especially the guards are extremely strict. The most important thing is that the people of Mingjiao have investigated, and the monks of the Vajra Gate have entered and exited these places, so they are listed as the most suspicious s position.Among them, the imperial palace occupies quite a large area, so it cannot be cleared in a day or two; Wan'an Temple and Chongguo Temple are temples in themselves, and it is understandable for those Toutuos to dress up as monks and go in and out of them.After discussing with each other, Yang Cheng and his wife decided to put the imperial palace last, and go to the other three places to investigate first.Among them, Ruyang Palace became the first stop.

Since it was an investigation, going during the day was not as good as going at night, so the two pretended to be ordinary tourists and walked around during the day. On the surface, they were admiring the grandeur of Yuan Dadu, but in fact they just took the opportunity to inspect the terrain and find a way to deal with it.At night, everything was quiet, so they sneaked out of the inn together, and went to the destination to investigate secretly.

In the past two days, the two of them traveled all over the Ruyang Palace, but they did not find any trace of the Dragon Slaying Saber. Instead, they found that there were quite a few people from the Jianghu in the Palace.It's just that those people are just second- and third-rate characters in the eyes of Yang Cheng and the others, and they are not of much use in the Jianghu. Even so, it is enough to make people startled.

Although Yang Dingtian had already speculated about the possibility of the Tatars colluding with the Jianghu people when the Vajra Gate appeared, he did not expect to have reached this point.Now those Jianghu people are just beginning to take shape, if they continue to develop?Sooner or later, there will be first-class masters joining, if it continues, the court will fight against the people of the rivers and lakes, the consequences will be disastrous!

He couldn't help feeling a little bit of crisis, and then began to reflect on Mingjiao's strategy.The Mingjiao has been fighting against the imperial court for a long time but failed, acting recklessly, and ignoring the principles of the Jianghu. As a result, both the Jianghu and the imperial court regard Mingjiao as a thorn in the side, and it is almost an enemy.If you continue to follow the established route, then I am afraid that major events will still be delayed.Maybe—they could try it another way?
