Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Hunting for Hostages

In the southeast corner outside the city, the Jixiang nunnery beside the canal.Later it was renamed Zhizhu Temple.At that time, there were about 30 bhikkhunis practicing in the temple. Half of these bhikkhunis are practicing women with hair. In the minds of water friends on both sides of the canal, Jixiang nunnery is a place where evil people and practices are hidden. The nuns are not practicing penance, but enjoying blessings. Not only is it not a pure place of Buddhism, but male pilgrims with ulterior motives desecrate the golden cave of Bodhisattvas.These people are not afraid of my Buddha's spirit, and they don't believe in thunder and fire.

In fact, there are so many romantic places in Yangzhou. There are Guangling Spring everywhere on the Twenty-Fourth Bridge. Huaguo Yanji is higher than the famous flowers on the Qinhuai River in Jiangning. , but also in vain, tender and graceful. There are some conscientious people and those Buddhist traitors who pollute the pure land of Buddhism. The mentality of such people is really incomprehensible. The vicinity of Jixiang Nunnery is in the countryside in name, but in fact, many houses were built along the river bank, and even some villa-style houses were built. There are bridges and boats on the land, and it is very convenient to travel. Dirty areas, where the security personnel feel the most pain, and the dirty areas with the most oil and water.

More than a hundred steps to the north of Jixiang Nunnery, the Guangling Garden built by the river not only has pavilions and flowers, but also has a private wharf, where various ships are often moored. The owner of Guangling Garden, Master Fang Fang Wuling, is one of the top ten wealthy gentry in Yangzhou. He started his business by shipping, and owned a hundred cargo ships of hundreds of stones. The profit is very abundant, and the money is being made every day, and he is very proud in Fucheng. No one knew that Mr. Fang was a tyrant with amazing martial arts, let alone that he was a terrorist demon star of the underworld more than ten years ago.

The deeds of Ling Xiaoke Fang Shiguang have been gradually forgotten by friends in the world, because he has been missing for more than ten years. In Guangling Garden, the gate is usually closed and there are few foreign visitors. People come and go from the water, and they come and go mainly at night, so it is difficult to see people coming in and out of the garden gate during the daytime throughout the year. The thief Li Bailu had spent some time investigating whether the root cause of Mr. Fang caused his death?No one can predict. The thief is dead or missing, this matter has to be found out by Zhang San who hired the thief.Qian Qing gang killed many people and paid a heavy price for killing the thief.

This matter is over, the situation is tight. Many mysterious figures appeared. In half a day, many ghosts and snake spirits disappeared. Friends in the rivers and lakes were panic-stricken. Guangling Garden was as quiet as before, unaffected, because Mr. Fang was not from the Jianghu, he didn't know martial arts, he was a wealthy gentry, and the storms of the Jianghu could not blow over him. He is a person of status in Fucheng. When applying for a license, a small Uppong was released along the river. The canal runs from the northeast of the city to the east, and bends to the southwest. Two or three miles away is the river surface of Jixiang Temple. The river surface is less than ten feet wide, and the water flow is not urgent. Winter is always a dry season.

Weeping willows lined up on both sides of the bank, and there was not a trace of fresh green in the weeping willows. The clusters of half-dead willows swayed in the wind. The boat was lowered along the bank, and gradually approached the empty private dock of Guanglingyuan. Two awnings, a river boat and two three-oared fast boats are moored at the pier.Not a single person can be seen. Such a sparsely populated suburban mansion is the perfect place for mysterious activities. The ships of Guanglingyuan have never had anything to do with the ships of the Qianqing Gang.People from the Fang family in Guanglingyuan never touch the big house of Jixiang Nunnery in Guazhou.

Therefore, from any angle of investigation, it is impossible to find any connection between the three. Bailong Jiang Hai lives in the mansion in Guazhou, he is Ling Xiaoke's best friend and accomplice, and he doesn't even know that Ling Xiaoke's other secret cave is Guangling Garden. It can be seen that Ling Xiaoke evaded the risk prevention work of the Three Caves and did it very successfully, even his cronies and accomplices were kept in the dark. The situation finally became clear. Not only did Ling Xiaoke collude with the Qianqing Gang, but he could also use people from the Qianqing Gang to do evil.

What's more important is: Ling Xiaoke may have contacts with Feilong Tianmo secretly, and may even be the lackey of Feilong Tianmo.Feilong Tianmo supports Ling Xiaoke to trap his friends to pick up the envoy, and he may get a lot of benefits secretly. Feilong Tianmo was injured and escaped. Of course, it is impossible to hide in the mansion of Chen Tianxiang, the richest gentry in Guazhou, waiting to die. To find the old devil's clues, he can only look to Ling Xiaoke. Ling Xiaoke abducted the three girls, and the hiding place should be in the Guangling Garden with many houses. This is a secret cave that is not known to outsiders.

But the eight people who sent the messenger to kill and lead disappeared, including Ling Xiaoke's son Fang Yu. Those who follow up should have discovered the tomb of the messenger, and the bottom of the Guangling Garden may have been leaked.So, how dare the treacherous and cunning Ling Xiaoke hide him in Guangling Garden? The boat sailed slowly past the wharf of Guanglingyuan. Zhang Qiushan, who personally steered the oars, dressed up as a waterman. His tattered clothes suited his status well and would not attract anyone's attention. He didn't need to stop to check the situation clumsily, and calmly lowered the boat down the water without stopping for a second.

The boat slipped down the current and arrived at the river near Jixiang Temple. Here is a bend in the river, the nunnery is about a hundred steps away from the bank, and the riverside is also the property of Jixiang nunnery. The row of two people can tie a boat with big secret trees. The boats of the so-called fragrance-seekers coming and going here are tied to the south bank of the river. This section of the embankment has not been built with stones, so the boats can rest halfway on the bank, which is very secure and convenient for landing. More than ten light boats have already been moored there, and the boatmen are hiding in the cabins to rest. Occasionally, some people come in and out, all of them are servants dressed as servants.

He docked his boat by the river, tied up the boat, took a big package with him, and hurried ashore without attracting anyone's attention. Jixiang nunnery has three entrance halls, and the outer wall of the meditation room behind the nunnery has a secret door for entry and exit. Immediately outside the wall is a row of inconspicuous houses with ornate interiors. That is where the Yan Cave is located. The nunnery is surrounded by lush forests and bamboos, which is quite secluded. The path along the river passes by the side of the nunnery, which is the main road to and from the villages by the river. Zhang Qiushan's figure disappeared in the remote bamboo forest.It was almost dusk, there was three feet of snow, and there was no one on the path. Who would pay attention to where a boat hid? It was finally dark, and the Guangling Garden was dark and full of ghosts. Not far away, the evening drums of the Jixiang Nunnery have already been beaten, and occasionally one or two lighting lanterns can be seen, flickering and flickering in the cold wind. The desolate and snowy night in the suburbs is as cold and lonely as a ghost land. Guanglingyuan Wharf is even more deadly and desolate. The second watch passed, and the faint sound of the third watch bell and drum came from the Bell and Drum Tower of Fucheng, and the snow-covered earth seemed to be asleep. The pier suddenly flashed, and then flashed again. A medium-sized black-covered boat was slowly lowering down the current. There was no mast light attached to the bow, but a pot of incense was lit. The boat speeded up suddenly, and the four large oars moved lightly, and the boat leaned against the pier lightly at a steady speed. The pier, which was originally empty and silent, suddenly had more than 20 people with swords out of their sheaths and swords in their hands. Drilled out of the cabin were more than a dozen people dressed as boatmen, but with knives and swords on their belts, they were agile, and they rose and fell silently on the boat. After a while, six gray-clothed men came down from above, and two of them carried a sack of hemp. Under strict security, they boarded the ship and handed the sack of sack to the people on board to receive it, then went ashore and left. Everything was carried out in silence, and after a moment, everything was swayed, and the ship immediately set sail, and the pier was empty, and the previous silence was restored. The security is tight, but all the attention is on the land and water, but not underwater. When it’s too cold, the dripping water turns into ice, and the river water is so cold that it will freeze for a while after being immersed in the water. Who dares to move in the water?Even fish dare not go out and find caves to hide in, and it is impossible for people to haunt the water. A figure wrapped in the water, clinging to the boat near the rudder like a leech, rushed downstream with the boat. The boat arrived at the Chaoguan pontoon bridge outside the south gate. Three boatmen leaped onto the bridge, pulled the bridge deck to let the boat pass, and then put the deck back to its original shape and jumped onto the boat. . The next stop is Sanchahe, which is where the canal diverges. Right to Yizhen, left to Guazhou. After crossing the Yangtze Bridge, the boat sailed into the Yizhen River. This means that the whereabouts should be Jiangning, and it has nothing to do with anyone in Guazhou. Go up the river instead of crossing the river and fleeing to Zhenjiang.Jiangning on the upper river is the largest port in the south of the Yangtze River. The former capital of Nanjing has a population of more than one million, which is a good place to hide. There are two boatmen at the rear of the deck to serve as guards, and the four oarsmen and the helmsman are all experts in watching the wind and the wind, with nine pairs of eyes watching the movement of the river surface and the river bank, and there is no way to make mistakes. However, the helmsman, who was looking back from time to time, suddenly found a man in black sitting on the starboard quarter, the black silk glistening by the black water. Huh!The helmsman turned pale with shock. Before he could make a sound to warn that the shadow was approaching, his neck was strangled, and there was a sound of fracture. The boatman, who was sitting in the back cabin and watched from both sides, jumped up in shock. Who shouted like Jiao Lei, with a knife and a sword concentrated on the people who passed through the water with the sound of shouting. Zhang San! The nemesis of the Qianqing Gang is here! Zhang San, a name that couldn't be more ordinary, has the magic power to shock people's hearts. Those who are not courageous enough will really be frightened so weak that they lose the strength to resist. Accompanied by his reputation, he grabbed the water diverting knife that belonged to the helmsman beside the rudder, stretched out his body and stretched out the knife and shook it suddenly, the clear sound was deafening, sparks flew, and the attacking knife flew up to the sides at a moment, and fell He Xin went. The Yiyi knife flickered horribly, mercilessly cutting the human body, and blood and flesh flew everywhere where the knife passed. There were two screams, two sounds of water, and when the body flew, Zhang San blocked the rear hatch, shouted loudly, and knocked over the two people who heard the police and rushed out with their knives. Five lives were wiped out one after another, and the quick and wild attacks did not fail one by one. The tent cabin was pitch black inside, and he didn't want to take the risk of rushing in. He overturned the two people and turned around immediately, intercepting the two people jumping from the starboard side. He turned into a streamer, his figure disappeared, appeared in illusion, and appeared on the top of the canopy. Hidden weapons are like flying locusts, passing by the place where he appeared to intercept before, if he leaves one step later, there may be more than five vicious hidden weapons on his body that can break the inner family qigong. The light of the saber sank again, like thunder from the sky, the human saber was integrated into one body, wedged between the two boatmen, and the figure was split in the middle suddenly. Ah, the sound of the howling was terrifying. The two boatmen dropped their knives and fell on the deck and rolled for a week. The blood flowed on the board and the smell was pungent. With a long roar, he flew over the canopy and broke the mast with one kick. When the unhoisted mast fell to the front deck, he rushed into the riotous crowd on the deck. The knife is one body and quickly cuts in disorder, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. There was a sudden wind and thunder, the knife was ruthless, there was no mercy, there was no mercy, seven masters dressed as boatmen and four oarsmen, four of them fell down when they made a mistake, and three more died under the knife after another roundabout. The deck is narrow, amidst the chaos and in the dark night, he can use his desperate single-handed power to his heart's content, but he will inevitably be hurt in the chaos, and he has suffered a total of one sword and one sword. The sword sliced ​​through his water-back ribs, and the blade slid through his hair unscathed. The knife slashed his left back shoulder, which also split the back of the water, but the knife broke, and was broken by his body protection magical power. The muscles first concaved and then recovered. Ordinary swords could not hurt him. If his body protection skills are not enough, and he rushes into the crowd of rioting people, it will be more or less auspicious.Therefore, there are many masters and celebrities who are not interested in Xiangren Cong Chong, and list it as a taboo.The so-called too many ants kill the elephant, but when there are too many people, it can't be used, and it can't handle it even if it has three heads and six arms. This is very dangerous. He was in a rush to save people tonight, he was a little impatient, his behavior seemed to be brave, but he succeeded in taking the risk. In a very short moment, he killed the ship from the stern to the bow. The knife head drank the blood of fourteen people, and there were dead bodies everywhere whose bodies were torn apart by the knife. The sound of the water was heard, and the water splashed in all directions. Among the four people who died, two cowards jumped into the water and fled for their lives.The last two people had no way to escape, and he retreated to the hatch. If they escaped through the cabin, they would definitely be faster than his sword. stop!Do not come over.A boatman shouted: "There are people guarding the prisoners in our cabin. If you pounce on us and make an attack, our people will kill the prisoners. You are not allowed to kill them." Hahahaha he raised his sword to the sky and laughed wildly. why are you laughing? laugh at you. Is it funny? Laughing at your words is inexplicable.What do you have to do with Zhang when you kill the captives?Is the captive the thief Li Bailu?If not, what is your Excellency's purpose in saying these bullshit threats? It was the thief Li Bailu.The boatman said sharply: "He is your friend, and he will help you find out the top ten richest men in Yangzhou, right?" That's right, he was hired by Zhang with three hundred taels of silver to come to Yangzhou to investigate the top ten rich men, but you captured him and tried to catch me and exterminate him in the Zhenhuai Tower. You didn't expect that the thief already knew that there would be no good reason, so he played tricks on the residence card to leak the news, and made you pay a heavy price. He tampered with the card?impossible! impossible?Dude, if it were you who did such a risky thing, would you sign your name on the card? this His name, Bailu, was on that card. Kill the thief embryo today!The boatman stumbled and cursed the thief. You are paying the price, and you have to pay it continuously, every day and every night.I, Zhang San, have raised my sword and declared to my colleagues in the world that I will kill everyone in the Gui Gang, burn every port, and destroy every ship. Tonight is the third time to carry out Zhang’s declaration, and you will all die! Brother Zhang, we are not members of the Qianqing gang. The boatman softened his tone. I, Zhang San, am not a good man and a believer, but an evil heretic. Since I believe that you, this ship belongs to the gang, then it will be destroyed. Whether it is true or not, let it be wrong if it is wrong!It is better to kill a hundred by mistake than let half of them go. This is the golden rule of Jianghu. The Gui Gang also abides by this rule, so they are desperate to destroy the thief, and then plot against Zhang, accept their fate!Dude, what do you have to complain about? you brother zhang Just now you admitted that the prisoner is a thief, but you denied that he was a member of the Qianqing gang, and you contradicted yourself. You want me to believe your words? We are just fighting against the morals of the rivers and lakes to help Qian Qing.All right!We have tried our best, and I believe that the Qianqing Gang will understand our difficulties.The thief is in your hands, let us go, how about it? This one needs to be considered.He wanted to catch and indulge. Of course he understood that the prisoner could not be a thief, and the death of the thief had been confirmed by the prisoner. His so-called consideration was to weigh which one was the most favorable in the current situation. He did not know who the captive was. The three girls were taken away, but there were only two estimated captives, and it seemed impossible for the other party to keep one and hide, so he couldn't conclude that the captives were the three girls. If he rushed forward and killed these two guys desperately, the prisoner might die, no matter whether the prisoner is the three girls or not, he can't act rashly. Even if he wasn't, he wouldn't want to be the murderer who indirectly killed the captive. Brother Zhang, what else are you thinking about?Does the life and death of a friend mean nothing to you?The boatman became anxious instead. All right!Bring people out and exchange your lives.He pushed the boat along the way and made concessions: If there is something wrong with the thief, hum!you The two boatmen immediately turned to drill the cabin without waiting for him to finish speaking, let alone giving him a chance to make other demands. At this time, the boat was about two miles down the river, the banks on both sides were densely covered with dry reeds, and the wilderness was a silver world.His knife had already been put down, allowing the two boatmen to turn into the cabin, and he had already controlled the overall situation, so he was a bit careless. The two boatmen took the opportunity to drill the cabin with a low head, kicked their feet, and jumped out obliquely from two sides. They slid against the ship's side with incomparable precision. Wonderful, amazing. This is just a matter of an instant, without any chance of interception. If the boatman jumped into the water, he would throw the knife and kill a man in mid-air. These two boatmen are really experienced escape experts. He shouted loudly, the knife flashed, and the human knife rushed into the cabin, so that his whole body was strictly protected from hidden weapon attacks. The cabin was dark, and there was no one guarding the prisoners at all. When I touched two big bags, it turned out that there were people inside, and my hands were still warm and could move. After dragging out the energy, he untied the first sack and dragged the person out. He was stunned and screamed secretly! It was a middle-aged man with big ears, his hands and feet were tied, his mouth was strangled, and he couldn't make a sound. After untying the tie, I untied the second sack, and I couldn't help being overjoyed, the hard work paid off. It was Ge Peiru, a little girl. As soon as the rope was cut, the little girl was about to jump up, but her hands and feet were bound for a long time and she refused to listen to the command, and fell down beside the fallen mast with a bang, in a state of embarrassment. Xiaopei, be careful!He rushed to help: Who took you captive? God knows!The little girl jumped up and cursed: Those goddamn dog thieves used mist to sneak up and blindfolded them when they asked for a statement. So far, I haven't even seen a single person's face.Brother Zhang, you I'll get the boat to shore first, and then we'll talk on the way.He grabbed an oar and used the oar as a pole, the water depth was only a little more than ten feet, and the oar was eight feet long, just enough to push the boat away and make a hasty approach to the river bank. The middle-aged man moved a little, and took an oar to help. How about them?While supporting himself, he asked the girl. who?The girl will be unhappy for a while. A total of three people were taken captive oops!my mother Not your mother. That The fake son Zhang Da, the fake man Jiangnan is a spring road with heavenly fragrance. have no idea.When mentioning the other two women, the little girl became jealous: You really care about them. I don't care about anyone.He said angrily: The only reason I worked so hard to rescue you was because I was there at the time.At the same time, I want to find out the conspiracy, who is counting me? They count you?The little girl seemed to be forgetful, she forgot her own topic earlier, and didn't mind the displeasure expressed in his words. Their main goal was to catch me. this Let's walk and talk.As the boat rushed up the embankment, he threw down his oars and said to the middle-aged man: "Brother, let's break up here and leave Yangzhou quickly, these bastards will not let you go, take care." Brother Zhang.The middle-aged man clasped his fists as a salute, and called him Brother Zhang after the little girl's name: I have been helped in times of crisis, and my thoughts are as heavy as mountains Dude, don't take it to heart, I didn't intend to save you, just by the way.The next thing is very urgent, we can't delay, so I leave. Brother Zhang With a wave of his hand, he took the girl's hand and jumped ashore, flying away. The little girl was startled at first, and instinctively wanted to shrink her hands to break free, but she pursed her lips playfully and snickered, and held his big hand tightly instead. The middle-aged man stood on the bank of the river, watching him go away quickly, shaking his head and smiling wryly. This young man is a reckless Zhang Fei.The middle-aged man smiled and said to himself: In this world, such careless people will suffer. Well!A person who can slaughter more than ten super masters in the whole ship in a short time is definitely not a low-level person. Why has he never heard of such a young master surnamed Zhang in the world?I'll have to keep an eye out, maybe Maybe something, he didn't say. There are more than ten houses in Guangling Garden. Because they are in the form of villas, they are different from the large courtyards of ordinary wealthy families. The layout is mainly for rest, banquets and outings, and the pavilions are almost all independent. Only the main house in the atrium is a building with three entrances, and the courtyard is also a place with flowers and trees. If there are not enough people to take care of them, it will become a large courtyard. At the end of the third watch, a total of four houses were on fire. According to local law and order regulations, if a fire breaks out, a gong must be sounded to warn for help, and nearby neighborhoods, villages, and neighbors must all dispatch to fight the fire. Guanglingyuan ignored this, and did not sound the gong for help, but put out the fire with its own hands, and even sent people to prevent the people who came to put out the fire from entering. This kind of thing happened in the past, so the fire was so bright that the neighbors watched the fire from the other side, and they didn't want to make trouble for themselves, so they rushed to volunteer to fight the fire. Residents near Jixiang Nunnery, which is close at hand, some residents are unwilling to even open the door to check. Guangling Garden, which is rarely visited by people, unexpectedly appeared tonight dozens of brave and brave people, wielding heavy fire forks and axes to put out the fire. Even some women and children are all powerful, climbing up the house and climbing the wall like walking on the ground. This fire exposed the details of Guangling Garden. A gray-white figure lurks in the tile ridge of a high-rise building, watching the changes from the height of the roof, looking for prey among the crowd of people busy fighting the fire. Around the building, there were three security guards who were patrolling back and forth with their knives behind them. They ignored the chaotic scene of fire and seemed to think it was an insignificant matter. They only paid attention to whether anyone was approaching the building. Almost all houses are made of wood. Except for brick walls, which are not afraid of fire, other building materials cannot withstand fire. Therefore, it is necessary to rescue the items in the house quickly, so as not to be blocked by fire. The flames were brightly lit, and you could see it clearly from the heights. In the two bungalows near the river, more than a dozen big men looked nervous, and took five or six people out, and escorted them to a small courtyard near the pier. The upper floor of a second-floor building thirty or twenty paces to the right of the two bungalows was already on fire, and it was likely to affect the two bungalows. Therefore, it was necessary to evacuate the people and objects in the bungalows as soon as possible. No matter how stupid people are, they also know that fires in four places at the same time are definitely not accidental disasters, but a planned conspiracy by someone deliberately setting fires. Everywhere in the park is heavily guarded, which has already shown that the person in charge has discovered the warning signs. As soon as the fire was under control, suddenly there was a loud explosion from the south room of the main house, shaking the sky and the earth, the snow and ice from the house and the woods fell one after another, the momentum was so powerful, it was like thousands of firecrackers exploding at the same time. Subsequent explosions followed one after another, and a total of four buildings were blown up. The smell of smoke and fire was strong and pungent. The situation got out of control and the whole park was in chaos. Amidst the bang, the hidden figure above the building disappeared. The small courtyard near the pier is inconspicuous, like the residence of the wharf executives. There are a lot of sundries and tools for ships in the yard, and the halls are in disarray. No one will pay attention to this kind of shelter for servants, and even thieves seldom visit it. In the nearby waste dump, there were three police posts lurking. The doors and windows are closed, how many people are hidden inside? The fire and explosion near the main house did not affect the emotions of these people. The three guards still focused on monitoring the movement around them, their vigilance increased to the limit, and the weapons and hidden weapons in their hands were ready to be used at any time.A man dressed as a long-term worker, with his sword hidden behind his elbow, came galloping along the aisle. The flames lit up the sky, and the reflected snow light was even more dazzling, almost the same as during the day, and the appearance of the visitor could be clearly discerned within thirty steps. A police sentry jumped out from his hiding place and stopped him head-on. Brother Wu, what's the matter?The police sentry asked urgently: What happened to the explosion?Has anyone ever spotted an intrusion? A series of questions showed that the police sentry was calm on the outside, but in fact they were panicked. We were refurbished by a very skilled arsonist.The fifth brother was out of breath and said hastily: He used gunpowder from the Military War Bureau instead of gunpowder from the firecracker factory, and used incense sticks to detonate at regular intervals. This guy is terrifying. The words passed down by the chief executive may have something to do with that bastard Luo Dade of the Fire Spirit Palace, and his disciples and grandchildren must be the ones who are going to come to force him, and they may come to rescue him later.It's not safe here, so tell Steward Sun quickly, send the Fire Spirit Palace to the boat and get rid of it, and settle accounts with him later. OK, I'll notify Steward Sun to handle it, and the others Leave everyone else alone for now.Brother Wu said: The dungeon is locked, no one except you is allowed to approach, be careful. After finishing his explanation in a hurry, Fifth Brother turned around and ran away. The police post issued a signal to inform the nearby police posts to run to the right of the courtyard gate, clap three times and fly over the courtyard wall without leaving the courtyard gate. The gray shadow appeared in a remote corner of the first thirty steps to the right of the small courtyard, and took out four large flower tubes for fireworks from the package on his back, but the bases of the tubes had been removed, and lit a piece of incense with a fire pocket, and then he stood up . If the ground response is removed, the fountain fireworks cannot be fixed. After being lit, they will scurry on the ground like a field mouse, which is very dangerous. The fireworks are extremely violent, and they are scurrying around the house. It is a sight to behold. They can get away with them wherever they go, and it is very difficult to save them. They are used to set fires in the house, and their power is extremely terrifying. Each fireworks tube weighs two catties, and the arm strength is enough to throw thirty or fifty steps without difficulty. The fuze was lit with incense, and four pyrotechnic tubes flew through the air and landed on the surroundings of the small courtyard. On the fourth throw, the first police whistle arrived. You should be damned, the police whistle is roaring, and you are rushing forward and firing lianju throwing knives. The third throwing knife was already close to the person, and the long sword in his hand provoked Feihong to play with the sun, falsely attacking the upper body but aimed at the chest and abdomen, there was a faint sound of wind and thunder on the sword, but Yujian's inner strength was astonishing. Gray Shadow snorted, and the knife hidden behind his elbow suddenly came out. With a loud bang, the sword was thrown out of the side door. Kill without mercy!The gray shadow scolded heavily, the knife light flashed, and it was faster than the lightning flashed by the right assistant who passed the police post, and his internal organs leaked out. Well, the police whistle sounded muffled, and he turned his head and fell down. bang bang The flame tube exploded in the small courtyard, the sparks flew, the fiery trees and silver flowers were dazzling, and the neighing of the fire was frightening, and the whole small courtyard was in chaos. The three people who reacted the fastest rushed towards the man in gray like a gust of wind. The man in gray flicked his single sword, approaching boldly step by step. Zhang Qiushan's fastest person screamed and stopped in shock, not daring to attack with the sword in his hand. Thank you dude for remembering me.Zhang Qiushan stopped and said in a strange voice: You sent people to the inn to calculate me, but the trick failed but captured my friends, so I have to come, on the one hand, I will do my best for my friends, and on the other hand, I want to know your calculations What is the reason below. Ah, another person screamed for help. Don't expect anyone to come to your aid.Zhang Qiushan said loudly: "The people in the main house can't take care of themselves, the casualties must be very heavy." When the sound of the explosion came out, the four female tigress near the entrance of the garden used their sharpened long swords to kill people like crazy tigers. If my expectations are not bad, no one can stop their four swords, unless your master personally leads his cronies to go out, but it seems that your master is not here tonight, Guanglingyuan is finished tonight. He wasn't threatening, but it was true. The people who killed people from outside the garden were the four daughters of Ge Peiru's family. The four swords were a hundred times more terrifying than Hades' posts, forming an invincible sword array. One would kill the other without mercy, and drive straight in like chopping melons and vegetables. The corpses are in a mess, it's really cruel to say. Miss Ge's hatred was as heavy as a mountain, and her sword was completely stained red with blood. People arrived one after another and were about to encircle them. Anyone have a confession?Zhang Qiushan finally asked sharply. Kill him with a hidden weapon!Someone yelled. The gray shadow came in a flash, and the light of the knife was like lightning. Seeing the light of the knife, the blade and the body, the man's head suddenly fell off his neck. kill!Zhang Qiushan's shouts were like cracking silk, and the knives turned into mad dragons danced wildly in the sky, waves split, and flesh and blood flew everywhere. The small courtyard became a sea of ​​flames. Someone gave up fighting the fire, and half of them besieged Zhang Qiushan, while the other half took six sacks and withdrew from the corner of the courtyard. The nine people, like fish slipping through the net, rushed over the wall to the pier. Less than ten steps away from the pier, Hui Ying waited at the pier with his knife raised. All the boats were gone, and they drifted away about half an hour earlier! There were three corpses on the pier. They were people who were lurking on the pier for vigilance. The corpses were already stiff and died in an inexplicable way, so the alarm signal was never sent out. I will never give up until I kill all of you bastards.Zhang Qiushan gritted his teeth and said: "Just leave a message to tell Master Fang Ling Xiaoke, I, Zhang Qiushan, don't know him, and I have no grievances or enmities with him. Why does he count me?"He must do justice. Nine people threw down the six sacks held by the captives, and set up a formation of junior talents, with three people from each sect, surrounding Zhang Qiushan in the center of the formation. I am Sun Mou, who is in charge of the rear.The big man in the main battle said in a deep voice: I can tell you the truth. I am listening. But there is a quid pro quo. Tell me. Exchange us safe. I'll have to figure out if it's worth it. Don't forget, we can still fight and get out. Sun Mou's words are not unreasonable, in terms of martial arts, Zhang Qiushan is certainly superior, these people are not weak, everyone can be ranked as a first-class master without shame, nine to one, their strength is still unprecedentedly strong. On the other side is the river, and it is not impossible to jump into the river to escape in a fight.Even if Zhang Qiushan could kill half of the people in an instant, the other half would surely escape. It is probably impossible to kill half of the first-class masters in an instant.The nine people escaped separately, and I am afraid that even one third of them would not be able to kill them. I believe that you can fight together, but you also foresee the result.He gradually increased the pressure: I almost slaughtered the people you left in the cell, and they also thought they could fight me. Your Excellency, don't stress too much Alright, let me take it easy and agree to your conditions. The problem is, your confession must be true. Sun is not an unknown person who has no responsibility, and guarantees that every sentence is absolutely true. Well, I believe you, say. My master is nominally a local lord who enjoys happiness anonymously, but in fact he is still secretly coerced by some people. Sun swears he doesn't know the details of where these people came from, but only the master knows it in his heart.Anyway, these people must be extremely terrifying, otherwise, with the master's strength, why didn't he show any resistance? Makes sense. Sun only knows that at midnight last night, the master suddenly received a notice to send people to the inn to arrest you as soon as possible. Judging from the fact that my master also went out in disguise, we can see that those people must have seriously warned us Lord, it is inevitable.Later, why did he change his plan at the last minute and take the second best option to capture three unrelated women, but the master didn't mention a word, so how dare Sun ask more questions?so So, in fact, Zhang got nothing from your mouth and is still at a loss. this Unless you find your master, there seems to be no hope. Brother Zhang Where are the three women now? One was picked up by a group of mysterious people by boat not long ago, and the owner was notified at noon, and the arrangement had been made long ago.the other two You leave those six sacks.Zhang Qiushan drank heavily. This Sun Mou was moving towards the sack quietly, but stopped in horror. you won't? Well, it's up to you.Sun retreated to the side and waved his hand to signal his companion to move to the inside. At this moment, the nine people suddenly jumped up and flew down the river. Their movements were extremely skillful, and they leaped at the same time. The tacit understanding has reached the realm of infinity. Zhang Qiushan didn't expect the other party to escape with a strange move, and it was too late to chase him.The pier stretched out, and nine people fell into the water on both sides. If he chased him, he could only catch up to one at most. The six sacks also need to be taken care of and cannot be left behind. Cutting open all the sacks, he knew he had been duped, but fortunately his luck was not too bad. Among them was Jiangnan Yizhichun, and the other five people were four men and one woman, and he didn't know any of them. All six of them were put into a blind spot. The situation was urgent. The people who handled the prisoners didn't want to waste any time. They made a blind spot and stuffed them into sacks to take them away. After a long period of fainting, you will become an idiot and a disabled person. Jiehun point is not difficult, and there is snow nearby that can refresh the mind. The six people who had just released their fainting acupoints woke up very quickly after being rubbed on their faces by Xue, but they hadn't fully regained their clarity for a while. The two black shadows approached like lightning, and the two swords shone brightly, and they were three feet away in the blink of an eye. Zhang Qiushan jumped up, the saber dragon in his hand groaned. Well done!He happily shouted: "I am waiting for the captives to come up."The confession has been settled. He was quite surprised, why are there two masked men?Since sneaking into the Guangling Garden so far, none of the people he has seen is masked. Behind him, the first person who stood up staggeringly was Jiangnan Yizhichun, like a person who has not woken up from a hangover. It can be seen that his mind is still not fully awake, and he just struggled to get up by instinct. He hesitated for a while, and almost suffered a big loss. The other party covered his face with a scarf, he thought it was not from Guanglingyuan, maybe it was a friend rather than an enemy, maybe it was a friend invited by Miss Ge to help him punch, so the strength of the knife was reduced by 50%. At the same time, the opportunity for the main attack was lost. The contact is too fast, there is no time for thinking and analysis, the reaction is instinctive, and the instantaneous reaction has already determined life and death. His surprise and hesitation at this moment, the other party's sword has been driven by clouds and electricity. Zheng!He sealed it with a sharp knife, and his body turned obliquely. The fierce and shocking heart pulse came from the knife, coupled with his own anti-shock force, the tiger's mouth was hot, the horse's steps were weak, his body seemed to be blown by a strong wind, and the true energy was vented. In the nick of time, he gathered his true energy, restrained his mind, relaxed his whole body, and protected his heart with his mind. Bang He fell out of the snow two feet away, feeling black in front of his eyes and feeling weak all over. The man was also uncomfortable, he let out a cry, he swung his body obliquely, he dropped his sword halfway to stabilize his posture, he flew obliquely up to a height of eight feet, two feet away, just as he sucked in his fists and legs, his body was already down plunge. bang bang!The sound of the water was like thunder, and the water splashed upwards, jumping into the bone-piercing river beside the pier. The second masked man was a step late, but he didn't expect such a change. The two of them flew in two directions, and when they were a step late, they suddenly lost their target. Just about to turn to attack Zhang Qiushan who fell to the ground, but found that his companion had fallen into the river, he was startled and hesitated. It's you, Zhang Qiushan, who sits upright in embarrassment, and yells while standing up. The masked man was startled again, and resolutely gave up the idea of ​​attacking Zhang Qiushan by taking the opportunity, leaped forward, lifted up his mind, stood up the rickety Jiangnan Yizhichun, and flew away, ignoring the words of his companion who fell into the water. life and death. The masked man who fell into the water has slipped away from the water, and after entering the water, he no longer floats up, and he doesn't care about the life or death of his companions on the shore.These two dear friends are really wonderful partners for you to cheat. Zhang Qiushan regained his vitality, and the two masked men had long since disappeared. From the terrifying force coming from the sword, he guessed that it was the great true strength of the strange learning, the evil secret technique in the inner strength, and the three old demons had practiced this kind of strange learning. That night when he fought against five demons with five strengths, the Heavenly Demon was injured. Tonight, the masked man used the sword. It must be the Heavenly Demon, but how did the Heavenly Demon's injury heal so quickly? And how dare you stay in Yangzhou?He should really continue to pursue in Yangzhou. pity!As long as I withdraw less energy, he will regret it: I lost the opportunity to track it down, really! 五個死裏逃生的男女，已可站起活動手腳。 兄弟不要緊吧？一位中年人走近關切地問。 fine.他苦笑，把刀遞給中年人：你們咦！路姑娘呢？ 救了六個，現在只有五個在場。 救人的目標是兩位姑娘，其他的人都在，所救的江南一枝春卻不見了，難道自己一聲不吭走掉了？ 誰是路姑娘？那位衣衫不整，皮襖有血跡的少婦訝然問：我不姓路 我是指江南一枝春路姑娘。他焦灼地說：我就是專程來救她的，她剛才還在 被一個蒙面人挾走了。另一個壯年人說，伸手一指：是從這一面走的，我躺在地上看得一清二楚，我還以為是兄台一起來救我們的人。 oops!他驚叫：你們快逃，我要去追那老狗，他可能是飛是個老兇魔 他發覺自己失言，幸好沒把飛龍天魔的名號說出，不再逗留，向蒙面人撤走的方向如飛而去。 唯一知道飛龍天魔下落見過面的人是雷神。 他當然不能說出飛龍天魔的名號，除非他重新改變身分，不然將有大麻煩，要找雷神尋仇報復的人真不少。 江湖十大神秘名人，都有許多許多仇家。 所謂神秘，意思是隱起本來面目避仇。 雷神是十大神秘人物之一。 江湖朋友認為雷神以報應神自命，並不怎麼公允，因為被雷神殺死的人中，固然有窮兇極惡的邪魔外道與黑道豪霸，但也有幾位俠義道名宿與白道高手，喪手在雷鎚、雷鑽與雷珠下。 這種黑白不分同樣處置的行徑，與邪魔外道並無多少差異，怎能算得上公正的報應神？分明是釣名沽譽的邪道魔君。 但為雷神喝采，鼓掌稱快的人很多，見仁見智，親痛仇快，這是人之常情。 五男女不敢再逗留，匆匆逃命脫離險境。 城根的三株巨柳下，葛夫人一家四女站在樹下枯等，眼看五更將盡，要等的人還不見蹤影。 他他到底怎麼啦？急死人！葛佩如像熱鍋上的螞蟻，不停地往復走動，不停地坦怨，眼巴巴地向南望，小嘴噘得老高。 城根有一條小徑，是城外居民行走的唯一道路，往南三里地便是南門，是運河碼頭的所在地，鈔關稅司遞運所都在該處。 夜間城門關閉，城內城外斷絕往來，路上不會有人行走，雪光明亮，有人老遠便可發現。 What are you in a hurry for?daughter.葛夫人笑笑說：那小伙子是個膽大心細的人精，武功深不可測，還用得著你擔心他的安全？安心的等吧！he will come. 娘他 他怎麼啦？ 他去救那個甚麼江南一枝春，甚麼章春哼！都是春，都不是好東西 oh!丫頭，原來你擔心的是這些 娘，不來啦！小姑娘頓腳撒嬌。 好，不笑你。葛夫人拍把愛女的肩膀：你真的沒吃苦頭？ 沒有，僅挨了兩耳光，被踢了兩腳。葛佩如恨聲說：當他們知道女兒是滄海幽城葛家的人之後，便說盡好話要女兒寫信約娘會晤，女兒堅決拒絕，所以他們要將女兒轉交給甚麼主子處理。 據張小哥所說，廣陵園的主人確是凌霄客方世光，這人早些年稱雄天下，目無餘子，具有豪霸的氣魄野心，怎麼可能尊奉別人做主子？葛夫人不安地說：這個主子，當然比他更可怕，今後我們真得特別小心提防，不然將有意想不到的災難臨頭。 姐，他們已經直接向我們滄海幽城挑戰了。二姨楊碧娥憤憤地說：唯一防止意外災難發生的辦法、就是著手刨出他們的根柢來。 對，別讓他們躲在暗處玩弄陰謀詭計。奶娘方氏冷靜地分析：他們敢迫小姐寫書威脅，綑起來用麻袋盛裝，似乎沒把滄海幽城放在眼下。如果我們不挖出他們的根柢，敵暗我明，會吃虧的。 I have no end with them.小姑娘火氣怪旺的。 what can you do舉劍叫他們出來？葛夫人笑問。 我要去找方老狗。 How to find it?where is he 廣陵園 廣陵園毀了，他會躲得更穩，玩暗的。 他們不會死心的。二姨肯定地說：滄海幽城站在任何一方，都會增加那一方的實力，是爭取的好對象。 可惜今晚我們所拷問，都是這些所知有限的走狗，除了知道他們的主人方大老爺之外，毫無所知。葛夫人慎重地說：這也說明控制他們的人極為陰險，實力雄厚，人多勢眾，我們將防不勝防。你們記住，今後切不可獨自走動嚴防意外。 遠遠地，灰影如星跳丸擲飛掠而來。 他來了。葛佩如欣然叫：唔！只有他一個人，救人恐怕 果然是張秋山，空手而來。 天色不早，葛夫人，咱們回城去吧！he said worriedly. 張小哥，人沒救到？葛夫人關心地問：你不要緊吧？ 栽到家了。他懊喪地說：好不容易救出江南一枝春，卻又被人順手牽羊弄走了 他將救人經過概略地說了，不勝懊惱。 張小哥，你已經盡了力。葛夫人溫言安慰：吉人天相，也許救她的人對她並無惡意，或者是她的朋友。據我所知，江南一枝春在江湖人緣甚佳，風評也不錯，朋友甚多，很少與人結怨。 問題是那蒙面人非友。張秋山不安地說：一位名女人，一旦落在邪惡的魔道人物手中，後果是極為可怕的。 但你已經盡了力，你們本來就素昧平生。難道說，你還有線索？ 有關江南一枝春，目前仍無線索。至於那位假公子章春，已有端倪。 are you going to 我得作詳細準備，這時作打算言之過早。累了一夜，真得好好歇息。Let's talk while walking. 葛佩如一直在旁冷眼旁觀，留意他說及江南一枝春與章春時，臉上及眼神的變化。
