Legend of Fei

Chapter 98: Jackdaw sound

Views:

Ordinary invitations are written on paper, but Huo Liantao's invitations are extravagantly engraved on wood. The time and place are hollowed out on the top, and a strange water ripple pattern is hooked on the bottom, which is very similar to Wu Chuchu's longevity lock.

Li Yan sighed: "This Huobao owner must be very rich."

Yang Jin said oddly, "Didn't he say he set fire to his home and fled to the south? Why is he still rich?"

"His important things have already been sent away, and Yueyang's Huojiabao left an empty shell and a silly big brother for Shen Tianshu." Li Sheng explained casually, he tapped the table lightly with ten fingers, and after a while, again He said, "Zhu Qing, the head guard of the Xingnan Escort Bureau, was originally a quite remarkable person. Unexpectedly, he was plotted for a dart trip, and his back was injured. So far, he can only be paralyzed on the bed, and he can't take care of himself, let alone take care of the business. Now, both of Zhu Qing's children are under 18. The elder brother is called Zhu Chen, the one who was guarded by their guards just now. He has been in poor health since he was a child. The sister, Miss Zhu, has been pampered since she was a child, and her skills are the same. The two brothers and sisters have undergone great changes. This is the only way to support it - when the Huojiabao rose a few years ago, didn't it recruit people everywhere? I heard that even Mu Xiaoqiao, who was alive and dead, had gone, and the two brothers and sisters of the Zhu family had attached themselves to the Huo family. Blowing the sky, I didn't care about their lives at all, and this time, the mess of the living and the dead can't find the right master, but it is unfortunate to take their anger out."

After listening to Yang Jin, he had no emotion for the suffering of the orphaned children in the troubled times, but thoughtfully said: "I heard that the Huo family's legs are unparalleled in the world, so this Huo Lantao can recruit so many people to vote for him, his martial arts must be very powerful. ?"

Zhou Fei said in horror: "Do you still plan to provoke Huo Jiabao?"

Yang Jin straightened his waist and corrected himself seriously: "It's a challenge."

It's really hard to talk to a southern border man who is full of invincible players in the world.

"I can't tell you about martial arts." Zhou Fei paused, remembering what Xie Yun had said to her in Mu Xiaoqiao's mountain dungeon.

How did the large and small sects around Dongting decline, and how did Huo Liantao take the opportunity to rise...

Zhou Fei quickly grasped her own thoughts and said, "At that time, due to the war and Cao Zhongkun's intention to target, the major sects in Dongting fell one after another, but Huojiabao, which had been silent for many years, became bigger-why? Huo Liantao is not the background. The deepest is not the best in martial arts..."

Li Sheng has been a personal person since he was a child, and he knew it at one point. Hearing this, he immediately realized: "But he must be the most ambitious, and there may be other forces behind this person. Huojiabao was just threatened by Beidou. , set fire to retreat immediately, and dumped his base camp. Apart from showing that he was particularly afraid of death, it was also possible that he had already found a way out. Maybe he planned to move Huojiabao to the south for a long time, so he The forces behind it are likely to be…”

Zhou Fei and Wu Chuchu looked at each other - Xie Yun had said that "Mr. Bai" was his cousin, and he was the nephew of Emperor Jianyuan, so wasn't his cousin the emperor's son

Wu Chuchu first nodded, indicating that Zhou Fei and Li Sheng's guesses were reasonable, then shook his head again, and knocked on the wooden invitation card on the table, implying that they had something to say, and stop speculating on the scheming of these big men. The three of them only exchanged their eyes for a moment, and then they each understood what the others meant, and they all silently tacitly silenced for a while, only Yang Jin and Li Yan were left with big eyes and small eyes, not knowing why.

Li Yan was afraid of being scolded, so she didn't dare to say a word, but Yang Jin frowned seriously and said, "Didn't you just say that Huo Liantao's martial arts is not very powerful? What are you talking about? Why are you old people from the Central Plains? Thinking about so many things? How happy!"

"..." Zhou Fei was speechless for a moment, then asked, "Who is Master Xu?"

Yang Jin said: "Oh, it's my adoptive father. He came to our Qingyungou to seek medical treatment in the early years. My father cured him, and he has been in frequent contact since then."

Zhou Fei said to him sincerely: "Then you must be closer to your righteous father, and listen to his old man more if there is anything."

Otherwise, sooner or later, it will be sold out.

Yang Jin didn't understand her cryptic run, looked at her inexplicably, nodded sincerely, "That's natural."

Li Sheng looked back at the wooden invitation for a moment, and said, "Yongzhou, the first month of the month - just now according to our inference, Mr. Xie is heading south, isn't Yongzhou also going in this direction? You said, is it possible that he went there? ?"

That said, it's really possible!

"Let's talk about this water ripple." Li Sheng counted, "As far as we know, there is one in General Wu, and there is obviously one in Huojiabao."

"There is a Shanchuan sword," Zhou Fei added, remembering what Kou Dan said by the Ximo River when he rebelled, and said, "Does Taishi Yu have one? My mother... No, according to the time, it should be my grandfather. There is also one. Yuyi class doesn't know, I think Mrs. Nishang probably knows something about Haitian Yishi."

"If it's based on that generation, Huo Liantao was still shit at the time. Even if he has water ripples in his hand now, it should be left by the old fortress." Li Sheng paused, remembering the scene he witnessed. The fire, remembering the strange tacit understanding between Chongyunzi and the old fortress Huo, said, "I always think that Qimen should have one too."

Zhou Fei frowned when she heard this: "Wait, I found a problem here."

Li Sheng sighed: "Not bad."

Li Yan was finally driven crazy by their unintelligible conversation: "Excuse me, brother, sister, can you two communicate in human language?"

"As far as we know, most of the people who originally held this water ripple died, and none of them told their successors." Wu Chuchu explained to her in a low voice, "I have been wearing that longevity lock since I was a child. , but my father never told me what was special about it. Shanchuan sword died unexpectedly, needless to say, and then his things fell into the hands of Zheng Luosheng, and Zheng Luosheng didn't understand what happened to Haitian Yishen until he died."

"Qi Men and Yuyi Ban don't know much about it, but if Kou Dan knew that Haitian was the same color when he took over as the head of Mingfenglou, she would not have turned against it now." Zhou Fei said, "My mother is the same, if she is not completely confused In the dark, at that time, Senior Brother Chenfei and the others would definitely not be sent to pick you up."

Zhang Chenfei was too young. Although their group often walked on the rivers and lakes, they mostly did errands. It was impossible for Li Jinrong to know that there was something terrifying in the Wu family, and even send his disciples to die.

"Speaking of this Huo Liantao," Li Sheng said, "Huo Liantao is a man of deep scheming and is very good at bragging and arrogance, but Haitian is no better than others. He can't be stupid enough to know that he has something that he is guilty of, and he takes it out. Exhibitions all over the world invite disaster. This water ripple is probably a token used by the owner of the Huojiabao Fortress, and Huo Liantao, who has no inside information, is used as a certificate to replace the old Fortress Huo."

Li Yan heard the cause and effect, and her head turned into eight big ones. Birds all over the city flew over and circled around her head.

She racked her brains for a moment, and mixed the originally clear face and water in her mind into an inseparable paste, and had no choice but to ask weakly: "So what? ?"

"It means that Yongzhou is going to be lively this time." Li Sheng said, "Huo Liantao thought he was here to give him stinky feet, and I'm afraid there will be a large number of uninvited guests."

To this day, the mountain of living and dead is coveted by the sea and the sky.

And Beidou...

Li Sheng asked: "How about it, shall we go to Yongzhou to see? The people from the Xingnan Security Bureau can take us there."

Zhou Fei didn't make a statement at first, she was not interested in watching the fun or messing around, but on this evening, the second shopkeeper of the "first household" sent a message to Yang Jin.

Since Zhou Fei confirmed that the strange person who had frozen the copper coins might be Xie Yun, the matter of finding someone for help became much clearer - after all, finding a young man with "what kind of eyebrows, how tall and thin" can be called looking for a needle in a haystack , that guy might even disguise himself every now and then.

But it's a lot easier to find a weirdo who's so cold.

The shop assistant said, "It was said by the brother of a yellow bat."

Li Yan didn't understand, so she poked Yang Jin, and Yang Jin explained impatiently: "'Yellow bat' is a car and a horse."

"That's right," the shop boy said with a nod and a bowed smile, "The brothers spread a letter saying that they had seen such a person. A few days ago, they bought a carriage by themselves, and they made a lot of money. Even if their brains were sick, they would not let anyone help him drive the car. You have to do it yourself. They have never seen the young master not being an unreasonable coachman, so they thought it was a bit strange, and they sent someone to follow him carefully, and saw that he was on the official road to Yongzhou."

Li Yan jumped up: "I'll tell Fei!"

Zhou Fei usually "doesn't leave the sword in his hand", even when he goes out, it is the same as when he was a disciple in the Forty-Eight Villages. In the morning, before dawn, he would get up to practice the sword. After practicing for an hour, going back and forth would be boring without any routines. The basic skills of her are not fancy at all. When she finishes practicing, others will almost have to do it. For the rest of the day, she would be immersed in the snowbreaker, and even if she was running on the road, she would take the time to practice the knife technique repeatedly in her mind. In the evening, it was time for her to practice internal skills, and even if she didn't eat, she would not forget this meal.

But this evening, she was not in the room, Li Yan looked around, but found her in the restaurant in front, and was surprised to find that she was sitting idle!

The words "Zhou Fei" and "sitting leisurely" are completely different, and it is impossible for them to reach each other. Li Yan was taken aback and stepped forward with great anxiety. She reached out to probe Zhou Fei's forehead, suspecting that she was a wound. Relapsed, burnt out.

Zhou Fei squeezed her little paw without turning her head: "What are you doing?"

Li Yan hurriedly told the news from the second shopkeeper, Zhou Fei nodded absentmindedly after hearing this, and said, "Got it, let's go when we're ready."

Li Yan wanted to say more, but saw Zhou Fei hold up a finger and make a "shut up" gesture at her.

Li Yan followed her gaze and saw that in the depressed lobby, the tables and chairs smashed by those from the Xuanwu faction had not yet been cleaned out, the storytellers did not come, but came to sing ditty songs, the strings were damp, and it sounded "crunching" "Crackling", the old man in the store was in poor condition, and one of the front teeth was missing, and there was always a bit of air leakage when he hummed.

Li Yan said curiously, "You didn't practice just to listen to this? What are you singing about?"

"The Voice of Jackdaw." Zhou Fei whispered.

Li Yan had never heard of it before, she sat down beside her in confusion, as if a nail had grown on her butt, and swayed for a while before she could hear a little bit of meaning.

This piece of "The Voice of Jackdaw" is very fresh, because it is not sung by a prince or a general, nor is it a genius or a beautiful woman. It has a little bit of legendary color of ghosts and ghosts, and it sounds deeply rambled.

The protagonist is a man. After becoming a refugee, foreign tribes invaded when he was young, and his hometown fell. He was forced to be displaced everywhere. By fate, he joined an old Taoist sect and learned the great skill of being invulnerable.

This first introduction was sung by the old man in his old voice. It was indescribably desolate, and attracted many refugees who were exiled here due to the war. , the string in his hand was broken, he didn't tune the door, and the broken gong's voice was also ugly, and the word "Yingcai" was sung very satirically and comically.

This talented man, both civil and military, went into battle to kill the enemy, and he was truly unparalleled. He soon emerged in the army and joined the army as an official.

Joined the army and fought several victories in succession, and was appreciated by the general. He was called to his side to commend him like this. He was deeply moved by the army. He burst into tears and knelt on the ground to express his life experience and vision. The general listened and comforted him. With a long sigh, he gave him an official promotion, and gave him three thousand strikers, so that he could ambush on the way and attack the elite of the enemy. Once successful, several cities can be recaptured, and the general promised to give the striker his first contribution.

The crowd who sang and laughed to the old man in the store just now calmed down again, and waited with relish to hear how this hard-fought man got out and became famous.

Joining the army in order to repay the general's kindness to know the encounter, naturally succumbed to the ground, and ambushed for three days, waiting for the enemy to come. In this segment, the strings were screeching loudly, and the old artist didn't perform well, and Li Yan couldn't help but hold her breath.

But who knew that they were just bait. The general was afraid of joining the army for military exploits, fearing that he would replace him, so he used the lives of these 3,000 people as a bargaining chip to lure the enemy to come. When he was about to die, he suddenly saw a flock of crows flying from the sky. Only then did he know that the master sent him to save his life, so he gave up his fame and armor, and went with the crows to become a monk.

Li Yan was stunned: "What the hell!"
