[Comprehensive martial arts] Master let me cultivate myself

A little red thought quickly and wanted to accept the move.

As a swordsman and killer, he shouldn't have such an idea, but it's not like he hasn't fought Shi Nian before.

When she was in Junshan half a year ago, she had already put a flying knife on his neck.She also stopped Shuai Yifan's sword that he couldn't dodge three months ago.

What's more frightening than her ability is her growth speed. He has seen so many people in the world, but he has never seen anyone who can advance in kung fu as fast as her.

If three months ago he could roughly guess that her skills might not be much different from the person who raised him, then now he can't see the depth of her skills at all.

It is heard that she broke the Great Zhou Tianjue God Formation in the future of Changchun Island and was imprisoned on the island, so now that she has returned to the Central Plains, does it mean that she has the ability to challenge the future and aspire to be the leader of the world?

If the business can't be done right now, you can look for other opportunities.

But if he is left here, according to the criteria of a killer, he can only die.

However, before he had time to pull back, the hand that had moved so fast was already chasing after his sword, as if the distance between the two of them had been extended from the distance of a sword in an instant. It became only one arm, and this distance was enough for Shi Nian to point out, and put Zhongyuan Dianhong in place.

At this time, two stars suddenly appeared in the dark night.

It was the other two assassins who responded to Yidianhong and came up to make up for the knife if he missed.

Yun Cong's sword struck the dragon, and there were a few bloodstains that were not piercing wounds but enough for him to lose blood when he used force. Although he saw the two assassins chasing the stars at this moment, he had no time to react.

But he saw that Shi Nian seemed to have a pair of eyes on the back of his head, and he knew the movements of the two sneak attackers from behind like the palm of his hand.

The sleeves of the blue robe moved lightly, and the clouds swirled between the turns. The two sword lights suddenly seemed to be drawn by some strange force, and pierced towards the opponent's neck.

Wearing a mask didn't affect Yun Conglong's and Yidianhong's eyes that instantly turned into panic when they saw the two.

However, before the two extremely fast swords pierced each other's necks, the owner of the flying sleeves had already used extremely difficult movements to capture, and hit their acupuncture points left and right, making the two black images like two wooden stakes Generally, it fell straight on the round platform in the water.

In the noisy water fortress, the distant sound of swords and soldiers clashing has gradually subsided, and turned into the sound of fetching water and putting out fire.

After about a cup of tea, Yun Conglong saw a young man in a blue shirt walking towards him carrying two men in black, while his subordinates followed him and carried the other men over.

More than a dozen men in black were neatly arranged on the ground.

"How do I remember that you said that if someone steals your business, this person is your enemy. There are many rumors in the world that Zhongyuan Dianhong will never rely on others when doing something. Why did you break your rules this time?" ?" Shi Nian tore off his mask, revealing that face that didn't seem to change even after being captured.

Unlike the few on the ground, after they were captured and their jaws were removed to prevent them from committing suicide, all of them looked ashen and mournful.

Chu Liuxiang was also very helpless. When he lived in the Yedi Prison outside Changchun Island, he also heard Shi Nian talk about what happened in Yongcui Villa at that time. This is already the third time that Shi Nian has met.

The first two times he was going to kill Nangong Ling and Xiong Niangzi. The former was done by the beggar gang, and the latter committed all kinds of crimes. He drew his sword and committed suicide under the witness of his daughter. It can be considered that he had completed the task, but today it is different.

As the leader of the Shenlong Gang, Yun Conglong can be called righteous when he was in charge of the Yangtze River waterway. Bo Yuntian is praised by everyone.

Such a person must not die.

"Brother Hong, with all due respect, can't you look at the target of the order before you accept the order?"

"A killer needs to look at who the target is." Zhongyuan Dianhong said in a hoarse voice, "Kill if you can kill, and die if you can't kill. The rules of survival in the world are the same."

That's what he said, but Shi Nian felt that something was wrong.

If he meets a boss who is pleasing to the eye, he will give it to him once. When he meets a scum like a scumbag who collects money symbolically, it is an iron law that there is nothing to do if the price is high, but he is uncharacteristically with others. It's really weird to cooperate in the assassination, or to kill the leader of the Shenlong Gang.

Seeing that even if there is another reason, it cannot be found out from him, so Shi Nian decided to ask someone else.

Before Yun Conglong's injuries could be dealt with, he started to inquire about the losses in the gang. He heard that several brothers died, and some boats in the gang were burned. Fortunately, Chu Liuxiang showed up in time , without causing more serious consequences, he quickly saluted Chu Liuxiang.

"Senior, you don't have to be so polite." He quickly helped Yun Conglong up. "I don't know if the seniors know, who is going to do such a murderous job against the Shenlong Gang?"

Shi Nian added, "This is my brother Chu Liuxiang, not an outsider. If Chief Yun knows something, why not tell him and see if he can help you."

Yun Conglong smiled wryly, "Speaking of which, I'm a young girl. Last time I was at brother Wu's place, thanks to you, we discovered that the Bat Island was targeting two water forces. This time, it's thanks to your master." My brother and sister arrived just in time to save my old life. I am a good fighter on the water, but on the ground I am indeed no match for the number one sword in the Central Plains."

"To tell you the truth, even if you don't remind me, since I saw the invitation letter from Bat Island last time, I will join hands with brother Wu to find out the details of Bat Island, and I heard that you intercepted their ships at sea. What's more, Changchun Island intervened to attack the opponent's lair in the future. I thought you would send a letter to say that it would not be difficult to check if there is any sign of this faction's resurgence in the Jiangnan area. Who knows that they will move for the first time in three months. The knife is actually coming towards me again."

"It can be seen that the other party needs power on the water, and it is really urgent. Wait a minute, isn't President Wu the helmsman also very dangerous?" Shi Nian couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Yun Conglong waved his hand, "You don't need to worry about him, he has taken a few brothers from the Fengwei Gang to cruise the sea these days. Finding him at sea is more difficult than fishing with a net." There are too many difficulties. At least there is no need to worry until he comes back for a while, not to mention the news that I have missed, these people should restrain themselves a little bit."

He thought for a while and then said, "As for what you just asked me to know, if you have to say something, there are especially many businessmen coming from Shanxi to do business recently, and the benefits that our Shenlong Gang gets from the businessmen are not If there are too many, otherwise we would not be able to get to where we are today, but we always have to interrogate businessmen from other places when they come to Jiangnan, and it seems that there is no problem, but the biggest problem is that there is no problem."

"Businessmen value profits. If they bring only ordinary goods and are not competitive with the original merchants in the Jiangnan area, the reason for their coming is worth pondering." Chu Liuxiang replied.

"That's right." Yun Conglong continued, "Before I found out why, I discovered that a group of professional assassins who appeared in the rivers and lakes in the past two years actually showed signs of activity in Jiangnan."

"Professional assassin? According to Mr. Yun, he shouldn't be like that?" Shi Nian pointed at red when he asked this question.

"It's not the same." Yun Conglong replied after pondering for a while, "If it is said that killing people is a profession, and assassins are their profession, whoever can afford the price will kill for him, it's the same, but they have some In different places, most of the killers dispatched in groups are domesticated, but they gather and dispatch vigorously after receiving the order. In the past two years, some have died, some have died, and some have nothing to do with martial arts. Humans have a much wider business scope than ordinary killers.”

"It's just that I didn't expect that Zhongyuan Dianhong is also a member of them. In this way, the other party thinks highly of our Shenlong Gang, and even let him, the usual lone ranger, come with him."

When Yun Conglong was speaking, the subordinates of the Shenlong Gang had searched the men in black thoroughly, but could not find any useful information on them.

"They really came prepared. Even if it's the safest deal without outsiders disrupting the situation, they have to follow the rules."

Yun Cong's long eyes darkened, "Excuse me, Miss Si Nian and Chu Xiangshuai, let's rest here for the night. There are some brothers in the gang who have been gangsters, try to pry their mouths open. As for Zhongyuan, a little red..."

"Senior brother and I will look at him. This killer might not have extracted anything from the forced confession, but instead let him find a chance to run away." Shi Nian replied, "But it will attract the attention of others, so senior brother Chu and I will not stay." Here it is, if Chief Yun gets any news tonight, just send the message to the inn, the largest inn in Suzhou City."

"Alright." Yun Conglong nodded and replied.

Of course, Shi Nian didn't understand the meaning of Zhongyuan's point of red acupoints. He was very obedient when he took the order, and there was no conflict with the fact that he was now a suspect. Fortunately, there was Chu Liuxiang, who just acted as a porter coolie.

How the two of them had slipped out of the inn without a sound was how they slipped back in now.

It's just that now the two of them are in the room of that year, looking at the Central Plains who is resting on the stool like a stone and is a little red.

"According to your rules, you shouldn't be able to tell who is the boss of this task you received?" Shi Nian asked.

Zhongyuan Dianhong blinked his eyes slowly. Before Shenlongbang Shuizhai left, Shi Nian tapped his Ya acupoint again. Now he can only move his eyelids a little bit.

"I thought you were an idle killer before, so I could only give money according to individual tasks. Maybe this kind of life is more free, but now it seems that you are organized. In this way, if your boss dies , you can accept a change of boss, right?"

This time, Zhong Yuan's red eyelids did not move.

On his not-so-handsome face, who was born with a somewhat wild aura, and looked particularly cold, it was rare for people to be able to read a kind of speechless emotion.

"How do you ask Brother Hong to answer your words? If he wants to say that he can change the boss, he will immediately confess the person. I am afraid you will not dare to use such a subordinate." Chu Liuxiang couldn't help laughing.

So of course Zhongyuan Yidianhong cannot answer.

But his reluctance to answer does not mean that everyone who came this time is as stubborn as them.

According to what Yun Conglong said when he arrived at the inn in the early hours of the morning, he had a brother who once studied under Mr. Zhang Jianzhai.

The famous genius doctor in the world has always been known as the king of the south and the north. The king refers to Wang Yuxuan in the north, and Zhang is Zhang Jianzhai.

Therefore, since this brother is a doctor who treats wounds and treats diseases in the water village, he can also cooperate with a few interrogators who have interrogation skills to dig out something from others when necessary.

"If this group of assassins have been trained for a longer period of time, they may not be able to ask questions." Yun Conglong said with emotion, "There are only three people in this group of assassins who are willing to speak, and I will ask them to ask them separately to avoid No matter who they are, they have not been able to say who trained them, they only know that they are a top swordsman."

"Fortunately, there is a piece of news that was asked about the people who hired them. It's just this answer, which makes me a little confused."

"Couldn't it be the young owner of Yongcui Villa?" Shi Nian asked jokingly.

"No, it's even more puzzling than being the owner of Shaozhuang Li. It's the young owner of Shijiazhuang, Shi Chuanzong." Yun Conglong replied.

Shi Nian calmly glanced at the red point, in those eyes there was no contempt for his accomplice's confession, let alone the fear that he might face punishment from the organization, only extreme Calm, there was only a moment of turmoil after hearing Shi Chuanzong's name.

That doesn't look like fake news.

But Shi Chuanzong, as Yun Conglong said, is indeed an answer that no one thought of.

Earlier, Jin Lingzhi and Shi Nian had talked about the forces in Jiangnan. She said that except for Xuejiazhuang, almost everyone in the Jiangnan area used palm kung fu.

The famous Jiangnan in Shijiazhuang is the Little Eagle Claw Kungfu, which is opposite to Zuo Qinghou's Feihuashou, but this kungfu is not owned by Shi Juren, the owner of Shijiazhuang, but his who has always been known as a tigress. What's more, his wife Hua Jingong is good at kung fu with a golden bow and silver bullets.

Shi Juren was afraid of his wife, but his son Shi Chuanzong was also afraid of his wife.

It was precisely because he happened to marry a wife with extremely high martial arts, she was Xue Yiren's eldest daughter, and she was really powerful with the Changge Feihong Sword.

As a result, most of the references to Shijiazhuang on the Jiangnan boundary were not about Shi Juren and his son, but about the fierce reputation of this pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

If it was said that Shijiazhuang actually had the idea of ​​external expansion, and it was also moved to the head of the Shenlong Gang, it was not very likely, let alone Shi Chuanzong.

"Junior Sister, in your opinion, should we go to Shijiazhuang?"

"No, on the contrary, we will go to Xuejiazhuang according to the original plan."

After thinking for a moment, Shi Nian replied, "If we change the route, then the truth of the incident will be exposed if these assassins entertained us. Whether it's for catching the murderer behind the scenes or for Mr. Yun who already knows too much. Not a good thing."

"Mr. Yun, why don't you pretend to sink these people who have troubles in the Shenlong Gang? You must have a group of people who are good enough to transport them from the bottom of the water in time, and take care of them separately. There are other arrangements."

She thought for a while and then said, "I'll find someone else to pay attention to Shijiazhuang."

Jin Ganoderma lucidum has already been waiting at home for the news of the year and is going crazy.

After Yun Conglong left, Chu Liuxiang asked, "How do you plan to arrange Brother Hong?"

"Give him a different look." Shi Nian replied decisively.

As for whose appearance to change into, it is naturally the former owner of Bat Island who sent an invitation letter to Wu Weiyang, who was almost killed by Shi Nian when he was captured, and who was once disguised as Ding Feng by Shi Nian. .

Now that she has returned to the Central Plains, this guy should also come back to make the owner of Bat Island worry again, right?

Anyway, if you are a little red in the Central Plains, you will be a prisoner. It doesn't seem to make any difference whether you are a prisoner in your own face or in someone else's face.

Shi Nian stared at Yidianhong for a while, and asked aloud, "While you have accepted one task, can you also do another task at the same time? A task that pays enough money."

Chu Liuxiang coughed lightly, thinking that she didn't need to emphasize the money every time she found a little red, as it would be easier for the other party to increase the price along the way.

I heard Shi Nian add another sentence, "It doesn't conflict with your current task."

Zhongyuan Yidianhong watched the two quietly for a while, and finally blinked.

Li Yuhan, who came the next day, saw a strange person in that year's team.

This man has a fairly handsome face, but he is obviously treated like a prisoner. His lips are pale, and his face is ashen-like as if poisoned. Moreover, he can't move his whole body. He was carried out by Chu Liuxiang. .

"He is?" Li Yuhan asked involuntarily.

"The people on Bat Island were captured by me before." Shi Nian replied casually.

She noticed that when she mentioned Bat Island, Li Yuhan's restrained face became more uncomfortable.

But his strange color didn't last long, and it was quickly covered by his smile, "Is it the Bat Island where I heard that I was going to do something in the East China Sea three months ago? Although my father is still ill , I am also very concerned about the affairs in the Jianghu, especially this matter may be involved, but unfortunately this group of people has disappeared recently, and the girl who caught them back then should have some clues, and it is lucky."

"That's why I'm going to Xuejiazhuang."

"Could it be..." Li Yuhan couldn't help showing a surprised expression.

But Shi Nian just smiled and did not give a clear answer. She then asked another question, "I wonder if Master Li Shaozhuang has found out the whereabouts of Kuaiwang Zhang San?"

"Of course I found it, and I have lived up to the Haikou I boasted in front of everyone." Mentioning this, Li Yuhan's face was a little more complacent. Although he didn't find the person himself, he could somehow Looks like he's capable enough.

Compared with the discussion of the senior swordsmen last time, he could only stand by, but now he can also put on a little air of supporting the young master of Cuishanzhuang, "He should be on the way and will be here in a while. "

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Zhang San's lazy voice humming a little tune from a distance.

Followed by a boat coming from a distance.

The one standing at the bow of the boat wearing a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat is not Zhang San, but who else.

He was just about to say hello to Shi Nian, when he suddenly saw the number of people standing on the shore, he couldn't help taking a step back, "I said, boss, I'm not driving that big wife today, this is a small boat that can't fit There are so many of you."

"I didn't say we were going to board the boat." Shi Nian was dumbfounded by his vigilant look, "We are going to Xuejiazhuang this time. As the number one swordsman in the world, Xue Yiren's trip is dangerous. Three Mother, you can stay here."

The rest included the "prisoner" and Zhang San who punted the boat, so there were exactly six people.

He couldn't say that his boat, which is good at water, couldn't even carry six people. When Dong Sanniang got back on the boat after Si Nian settled down, he pushed the pole, and the boat slid out lightly.

After the boat sailed for a while, Li Yuhan's figure had disappeared behind him, so Zhang San said, "You clearly know where I am, and you asked the young owner of Yongcui Villa to find me."

He pretended to be disappointed and sighed, "You don't know, I was sleeping soundly and having a sweet dream, and suddenly someone disturbed my dream."

"Then I don't know what dream you had?" Shi Nian asked.

"You landed from the mouth of the sea in the north of Suzhou Mansion, and crossed the river to the west. If you go a little south, you should have heard about it when you landed from Songjiang Mansion. Jiangnan, his perch croquettes are also excellent, but unfortunately only two people in the world can eat the perch croquettes that he catches and cooks with his own hands, and even Yuan Suiyun, who visited the Throwing Cup Villa a few days ago, is only the second from the left It's just a meal cooked by my master's cook."

"You see, now that summer is approaching, and the autumn wind is gradually rising, there is a famous saying in the ancients. When the autumn wind comes together, there is the thought of sea bass. I dreamed that I was tired of eating my own grilled fish, and I ate Zuo Qinghou's sea bass. , isn't that too much?"

"It's rare for you to have such elegant feelings. It's a pity that others miss their hometown, but you just take the meaning." Chu Liuxiang smiled brightly.

"You're wrong. Life is not good. What's so good about eating? There's nothing you can't talk about about appetite." Zhang San looked at the guy who was sitting motionless while driving the boat. "Boss, I remember you asked Miss Qu to play this person once before. Now is the master here in person, or has someone else been invited to play?"

"It's someone you know." Shi Nian replied, "Okay, go ahead and sail the boat. This person has already served more than half of what he should be doing. There is nothing to worry about. But if you want to eat Mr. Zuo It’s better to steer your boat steadily and faster. I don’t think you don’t know that one of the two people in the world who can let Second Master Zuo cook himself is Senior Brother Chu.”

"That's right, when you come back from Xuejiazhuang, if there is a chance, I will definitely come and rub it."

At that time, he was still thinking about what Zhang San had just said. He said that Yuan followed Yundengmen to visit Zuo Qinghou at Throwing Cup Villa.

The former young owner of Wuzheng Villa has indeed stayed in the Jiangnan area for too long, not to mention that Zuo Qinghou has not been involved in the affairs of the Jianghu for many years. He is also hospitable, the only person he can count as an enemy is Xuejiazhuang, but even Xue Yiren is already half-retired, let alone Zuo Erye.

I don't know what Yuan Suiyun's idea is.

It can't be that the old Mr. Zhang Jianzhai, who is often a guest at Throwing Cup Villa, has some way to heal his eyes. With the status of Wuzheng Villa, he should have been invited before.

The group of them sailed late at night, and happened to have reached the end of the waterway, so they abandoned the boat and landed on the shore, and stayed overnight on the shore.

When thinking about Shi Chuanzong's buying/murdering/killing, Li Yuhan also had some unusual situations, and then thought about the somewhat unusual situation of the Shanxi businessman that Yun Conglong said, and Ben was her number one suspect Yuan Suiyun's visit to the Throwing Cup Villa, and Xue Bin who was kidnapped and released from Xue's Villa she was about to visit...

Wait a minute, Shi Chuanzong, Li Yuhan and Xue Bin have something in common.

Just when she thought that she might have figured out the key points, she suddenly heard a very faint sound of a bell.

She looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a guy in a red embroidered dress lying on the pavilion of No Watanabe, pointing to the sky with his hand, as if counting the stars.

The sound of the bell was that when he raised his finger to point, the gold bracelet in his hand shook, and even the bell hanging on it also rang.

The man was dressed in a strange way.

When I got closer, I realized that under his red clothes embroidered with bangs and sprinkled money, he was wearing a pair of tiger-head red velvet shoes, which looked like a child's attire. Even the clothes were short and short, but he was already a little gray His beard and hair were neatly combed and polished with a shiny shaving oil.

When he got closer and turned his head when he heard someone's movement, Shi Nian even noticed that he had still painted two balls of rouge on his face.

This should be a dress that only a fool can make, but in those days, he knew so much about rouge and gouache, so he couldn't tell that he used the best kind, whether it was wood shaving oil or rouge.

A fool would use something of such a quality, in fact, it can also be explained that his family made it according to his wishes, but would such a person come to this wilderness alone?

Before Shi Nian could figure out why, the man in red suddenly sat up, dangling the tiger-toed shoes on his feet, and said with a smile, "Are you here to play with the baby?"
