Jianghu chaos

Mu Jiuqiu was shocked: "How could this be?"

Mei Qian frowned: "Is it Sunset City?"

Shangguan Yun's eyes showed guilt: "It's because I didn't think well."

"The leader Qin went to Luoyang the day before yesterday, and the villa owner sent several guards to meet him. On the way back to the village, he encountered a few men in black wearing sunset-patterned masks to intercept him." In the village, false news was passed to Mr. Cao, Mr. Cao only thought that the leader of Qin was ambushed, and led a few disciples out of the city, and fell into the trap."

"The dead man who sneaked into the village swallowed poison and killed himself after spreading the news. When he was discovered and reported to the owner of the village, the owner sent someone to look for it, and it was already too late."

Mu Jiuqiu murmured: "The Seven Killing Fist taught by Hengsha is rampant in the Western Regions, and the leader of Qin is even more skilled in martial arts. The one who can hurt her life must not be an ordinary person. Could it be...Ming Yuan is here?"

The alliance meeting is just around the corner, so it's time for Ming Yuan to show up.

Shangguan Yun looked ahead and said softly, "Perhaps."

Caoqin was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Has my father arrived yet?"

Wei Yang said: "I arrived yesterday, the castle master didn't know about the injury of the lady, the guards of Baichuan Villa will keep tight-lipped, don't worry, miss."

Caoqin lowered her eyes: "Thank you."

While speaking, he had already turned to a quiet courtyard. There were only two or three guards outside the courtyard. When he saw them, he tacitly moved out of the way.

"The two rooms here were originally arranged for Brother Mei and Brother Xie." Shangguan Yun stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door a few times, "Just now we have invited Hall Master Hua to come here, and I will treat you first."

There was a coughing sound in the room: "Is it the owner of Shangguan Villa? Please come in."

Shangguan Yun said "Excuse me" and pushed the door open.

The windows in the room were all closed, and Hua Luan was sitting at the table, with one hand wrapped around his neck with a bandage, and a crutch beside him. Seeing them struggling a few times and failing to stand up, Hua Luan said awkwardly: "Hua is unable to move. , I didn't intend to be rude, please forgive me. A few don't come here..."

Judging from their respective situations, it seems that they can't really be called safe and sound.Hua Luan's voice faded, and she smiled embarrassedly.

Mu Jiuqiu was very surprised: "How could Hall Master Hua get hurt like this?"

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a few flesh wounds, and it'll be fine after a few days." Hua Luan waved her good hand and sighed, "It's all because of Hua's overestimation, if it wasn't for Brother Shangguan, I might die too In the hands of Sunset City."

Xie Chaohan frowned: "Is it something about the Hengsha Sect the day before yesterday? The Hall Master Hua was also there?"

Hua Luan smiled shyly: "I went with Brother Cao, the people in Sunset City were too low-handed, they divided us up and broke us down one by one. Fortunately, the owner of the Shangguan Village arrived in time and confronted the leader. Palm, those people ran away."

Shangguan Yun closed his eyes, and shook his head slowly: "It's still a step late, if we find out earlier, maybe Master Qin..."

Mei Qian thought for a while: "Who is facing you?"

Shangguan Yun twitched the corner of his mouth: "If I'm not mistaken, it should be Zuo Shuo's protector, Guan Shanyue."

"Look left and right, the crescent moon is waning..." Xie Chaohan whispered to himself, "Everyone is here."

When Ruan Xi woke up, it was already night, the surroundings were pitch black, with a few scattered stars above his head, faint light was better than nothing.After blinking several times, the night vision cultivated by the delicacies of mountains and seas for many years gradually outlined a blurry shadow, swaying back and forth in front of his eyes.A drop of ice-cold dew fell down, just on the eyelids, and the cold touch made my heart jump, making people faintly shudder.

Two steps away, there is a large shadow, vaguely in the shape of a person.

A chill rushed to the back of his head, and Ruan Xi still remembered that the last thing he heard before fainting was Xuanwu Dousu's words "killed". Could it be that he was already dead, and black and white impermanence came to seduce his soul? !

Seeing him move, the shadow also moved. In the silence of the surrounding area, a voice suddenly sounded, making Ruan Xi almost jump up in fright:

"you're awake?"

With her heart beating like thunder, Ruan Xi clenched her fists and trembled: "You...you are...you are..."

The man scratched his head, took out a torch, and pulled out a candle from nowhere to light it.

A candle was lit, and the reflected face was unshaven, floating faintly in mid-air.

Ruan Xi was so frightened that her voice changed: "You, you, you are a human... a ghost..."

The man squatted down, put the candles on a stone and dripped a few drops of wax oil to fix them, then took out two more and lit them next to him, finally able to illuminate the two of them clearly.The stone that was supposed to be a crude candlestick was pushed to Ruan Xi's side, and the man squatted aside, with a look of disgust on his face, he said, "If you dare to venture into the rivers and lakes with such a little guts, you will be scared to death instead of being beaten to death."

Ruan Xi rubbed his eyes, wiped the sweat from his hands, stared blankly at him for a moment, and finally realized that he was rescued.

The savior acted strangely. He didn't light a fire in the wilderness at night, and he didn't speak very nicely. He just carried a jug of wine absent-mindedly and took a few sips at a time.

It was said in the scriptures that high-level people outside the world are a bit weird, but this person in front of him really looks like the kind of high-level people who can't be seen in the book.

Ruan Xi got up cautiously, arched his hands and saluted him respectfully: "Thank you senior for saving me, Ruan Xi in Xiamingzhou, dare to ask senior Gao's name?"

The man gave him a strange look, and said vaguely: "The surname is not high, and the name is not big. The surname is Duan, and the single name is a character."

Ruan Xi continued to ask politely: "Dare to ask Senior Duan, where are my two companions?"

The man's expression became even more strange, and he said angrily: "I only have two arms and two legs, how can I save the three of you? It's not bad to save one!"

Ruan Xi panicked: "Miss Ye and Miss Hua are still in their hands?"

Duan Li rolled his eyes: "Three greenheads, it's not good to offend anyone, but that lunatic Yan Wuya, who is self-inflicted."

Ruan Xi was in a hurry, running around like a headless chicken: "No, no! Miss Hua and Miss Ye are still in their hands, what should I do! Senior, senior..."

Seeing a life-saving straw, Ruan Xi grabbed the man, his face flushed red: "Senior is willing to save me, he must be a hero who draws his sword to help when the road is injustice! I also ask the good people of the senior to go to the end and help save the two girls!"

"What are you saving? You are the only one who needs to be saved!" Duan Li sighed deeply, grabbed his collar by the back of his hand and threw it aside, "Think about it carefully, what are those people talking about!"

"Those people... said...?"

The brain that had just woken up slowly turned, and one or two voices came up belatedly, and echoed in his ears again:

"Don't move at the news conference."

"Hua Luan's younger sister...keep it for now..."

Ruan Xi stared at him blankly, and said in a low voice: "I don't remember very well... how did senior know? Could it be that he was nearby at that time and heard everything?"

Duan Li snorted.

Ruan Xiyu asked in a daze, "Could it be that senior is following us?"

"..." Duan Li was silent for a moment, and broke out with hatred on his face, "You think those brothers of yours are really relieved to let you go into the rivers and lakes alone? How many times have you been told by your family that you are a fool without thinking? Don’t cause trouble, don’t reveal your wealth, and forget about it when you go out! You are a fool and you don’t know it, if I wasn’t watching from behind, you wouldn’t know how you died!”

Ruan Xi was so shocked that he couldn't even speak properly: "Qiqqqq... What does senior mean... are you sent by my brothers to follow me? Follow me all the way?? Then...then..."

Duan Li said unhappily: "That's what, that is, you silly boy didn't find out, your senior brother, Xie brother, and Shangguan brother, which one didn't know!"

Ruan Xi's eyes widened: "They all know? Why didn't anyone tell me..."

"Tell me a fart." Duan Li took a sip of his wine casually, "If a child plays house, if he didn't mess with Sunset City this time, I wouldn't mind coming out."

"But, but..." Ruan Xi still didn't seem to be able to accept it, "Father said... our family does business according to our duties, a rich man with no power and power... and doesn't know people in the world, how could..."

Duan Li sneered, disapproving: "The local rich man? You also praise the local rich man too much."

Carelessly pulling him to sit down on the floor, Duan Li wrung his fingers and said to him: "Don't talk about anything else, just mentioning your elder brother's status as the president of Rong'an Chamber of Commerce is enough to scare a lot of people! Rong'an Chamber of Commerce is What do you know?"

Ruan Xi shook his head blankly.

Duan Li was angry: "That's the largest chamber of commerce in the south of the Yangtze River! It's the lifeblood of business in the whole south! Not to mention ordinary business, even the imperial court should be wary of it. Although your Ruan family is in Mingzhou, this business is very important. Do it all over the world, there are some industries in the north and south, such a family has nothing to do with Jianghu and Wulin, do you think it is possible?"

Although Ruan Xi couldn't say why it was impossible, he still shook his head cooperatively.

"That's right!" Duan Li was satisfied. "Your father is an old fox. He secretly recruited many masters to be his disciples. Otherwise, where do you think all the messy secrets you practiced came from? It just fell from the sky. Expert identification, dare to let you practice casually? Even his Lingxu sect..."

Ruan Xi lifted his spirits: "Lingxu faction!"

Duan Li pretended not to notice: "Even Lingxu Sect's Lingshuang Treading Snow Lightness Kung Fu was poured by your father and brother to make you happy. You are also the head of every family. He has a bright future, but it's a pity that he is a fool, he can't even beat him in Xuanwu Dousu, what a waste of money!"

"That's Sunset City..." Ruan Xi shrank his neck, and when he shrank halfway, he remembered the business and jumped up, "Miss Ye and Miss Hua are still in their hands! Senior, since you were invited by my family to help me, Please come with me to save people!"

Duan Li pushed him down with one hand: "The two girls have been taken away long ago, where are you going to save them?"

Ruan Xi was in a hurry: "Then what should I do! I promised Miss Cao to protect Miss Ye. She doesn't know martial arts yet, so what if she is captured by the people of Sunset City!"

Duan Li rubbed his chin thoughtfully: "Hey boy, are you interested in that girl from Chaowenhui, uh?"

"Huh?" Ruan Xi was dumbfounded.

Duan Li chuckled: "Look, the two girls were taken away, and the one you're talking about is the one from Chaowenhui."

Ruan Xi blushed and glared angrily: "Human life is at stake, senior still wants to make me happy!"
