Chapter 29 Unexpected Disaster
Chapter 29 Unexpected Disaster
Yuwen Wenjing followed Xu Nuo and the two around Quyang City a few times, and after Xu Nuo was sure that he had shaken off the Nanjiang Bamo Sword, he turned around and ran towards Quyang South Gate.
There are two important routes outside the South Gate of Quyang, one waterway connects the Dun River, and going southeast along the river is the No. 36 waterway checkpoint.Another land route connects Xiao Bianzhou and Da Bianzhou. Going east through Da Bianzhou is the capital, and going west around Xiao Bianzhou is the rich area of Beizhe.
After "Yuwen Wenjing" woke up, he took the remnants of the Demon Cult down the Tianshan Mountains, and then changed his name to Mubaiju, expanding his power all the way from the West Desert.The first thing to occupy is the fourteen waterway checkpoints of the Dun River, and the power has reached Xiaobianzhou, and Quyang is the key hub.If they seized the Quyang waterway and marched all the way to the southeast into the Central Plains, without the obstacles of mountains and rivers, they would be able to easily and smoothly annex all the gangs along the coast.All the salt gangs, trough gangs, and green forest heroes along the Dun River will be under its control, which will be a fatal blow to the economic lifeline of all gangs of all sizes in the martial arts in the entire Central Plains.
It has not been a day or two since the Wulin League and Mubaiju have confronted each other in the Quyang area, but the main force of Mubaiju has been hiding behind the scenes, only sending some small gangs along the way to harass them from time to time.Its leader "Yuwen Wenjing" has a mysterious identity and high martial arts skills, and he always appears and kills people without warning.In order to defend the Dunhe Fortress, the Wulin League has contacted many forces and rushed to Quyang to help, but they didn't want "Yuwen Wenjing" but sent four guardians to secretly cross to the capital.
Fortunately, Bai Xiaosheng had the foresight to determine that the ultimate goal of "Yuwen Wenjing" was still the Hero Order, so he contacted Shen Lang in the capital and other local heroes to spy on him secretly, and he found some clues.
Here Gong Wanhong just rushed to the capital, and accidentally arrested Guo Zizai, one of the four protectors. Over there, Bai Xiaosheng immediately wrote a letter to Shen Lang and Nanjiang Bamojian to let them rush to Quyangduren.It's a pity that the Eight Black Swords of Southern Xinjiang had been hidden in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and they were unfamiliar with the terrain of the Yunjing mountain forest, so the three of them took advantage of the loophole and escaped.And Shen Lang was delayed due to personal matters. When he set off, Xu Nuo and the black-robed monster had already reached the edge of the Yunjing mountain forest, and they were only lucky enough to catch the Chi Yannv who was poisoned and weakened due to internal strife.
Yuwen Wenjing was the only one who chased Xu Xu three times.
Xu Nuo went out of Quyang South Gate and went straight to the Dunhe waterway.
The waterways of the Dun River were originally under the jurisdiction of the government, but gangs in the rivers and lakes rely on the water to draw water, and there are more or less two or three gangs built near each waterway. To keep him safe.If you don't know the fun, these Jianghu sects won't do anything.It's just that there are many robbers and bandits along the river, and if they get hurt, they can only admit death.The government also turned a blind eye to this and ignored it.
Quyang is prosperous, and the merchant ships in the waterway will naturally go there. The gang outside the south gate is headed by the Cangmang faction.Wu Nong, the leader of the Cangmang faction, is a bully who is afraid of seeing money. This gang was also left to him by his dead father.Before Mu Baiju and his party entered Quyang, they had inquired clearly and threatened him with the lives of a dozen members of Wu Nong's family to submit to Mu Baiju, but the Wulin League didn't seem to know about it, and they didn't take any action against the Cangmang faction.
Xu Xu and the two of them abandoned their horses when they reached the bank of the Dun River, and were welcomed to the big boat by the Cangmang faction.Yuwen Wenjing followed behind them, knocked down several gang members and took the opportunity to board the boat.
It's just that this boat is not just one, the boats are connected by iron cables, the road is paved with wooden boards, and there are guards at each boat mouth, which looks very strict.Yuwen Wenjing hugged Luoying and knocked several gang members unconscious, but lost track of Xu Nuo and the two, and didn't know which boat she was on for a while.
"Yuwen...that Uncle Luoxin," Luoying changed her tongue and said, "We have fallen for it, why is this ship like a maze and can't find the exit."
Yuwen Wenjing frowned and jumped onto the beam on the roof of the boat, covering Luoying's mouth, "Someone is coming."
Luo Ying kept her mouth shut.
The ship they were in was very luxurious, the interior layout was like a living room, with a red carpet on the floor, window lattices carved from catalpa wood, several screens, and high hanging lanterns.Yuwen Wenjing hugged Luoying and hid above the beam. A huge decorative curtain hung under the beam. If you didn't look closely, it would be difficult to spot the figures of the two from below.
After a while, the door of the ship opened, and several footsteps gradually approached.Kong Wuzi, dressed as sailors in brown clothes, surrounded a middle-aged man in Chinese clothes and entered the boat. Behind the middle-aged man were Xu Nuo and the black-robed monster, whom they had lost track of.
This middle-aged man is Wu Nong, the boss of the Cangmang Sect. He looks upright with a broad forehead and starry eyes, but he doesn't look like a very evil person.
Wu Nong sat down with Xu Nuo and Heipao, and several big men were sent away by Wu Nong after offering tea. As soon as they left, Wu Nong immediately stood up and bowed to Xu Nuo.
"Wu Nong of Cangmang Sect has seen the left and right protectors, I wonder if the two of you suddenly came to the humble house this time, what instructions do you have?"
Xu Nuo waved his hand to motion Wu Nong to sit down, "The two of us just rushed back from the capital, and we have something important to report to the leader, and we still need a boat to send you off. You can build a boat for me, find two swift sailors, and quickly take me away. The two are sent to Jingzhou."
Wu Nong snorted, "Jingzhou? But the leader..."
Xu Nuo hurriedly reached out his hand to stop what he was about to say, "Do as I tell you, don't ask too many questions."
Wu Nong hurriedly nodded, "Yes, yes, I don't dare to ask more questions, I don't dare to ask more questions. I will prepare it for you right away, and the two guardians will wait a moment."
After finishing speaking, Wu Nong hurried out again, only Xu Nuo and the black-robed monster were left in the boat.
As soon as the idlers left, Xu Nuo couldn't help vomiting blood.The black-robed monster hurriedly got up and went to check, "Brother, your injury is a bit serious, why don't you rest here first, and I will go to the leader alone."
"No, the Martial Arts League has found the Nanjiang Bamo Sword this time, and it seems that they are determined to fight us to the end. Just because you alone are not the opponent of the eight people, you should take this letter first. They found it, and I will draw their attention for you. You don’t need to worry about my safety, the most important thing is to give this letter to the leader.” Xu Nuo took out a letter paper from his pocket, folded it a few times and handed it to the black-robed monster.
The black-robed monster replied with a serious face: "I will definitely live up to my mission!"
Xu Nuo said again: "The content of this letter is the information that I have been searching for for many years, and it is related to our century-old foundation of the Demonic Dao. Please remember not to fall into the hands of others."
The black-robed monster took the note, just about to stuff it into his arms, when Xu Nuo grabbed his hand again. "Brother?"
"I thought about it. Both you and I have been targeted by the Nanjiang Bamojian. Although those eight people have lived in seclusion for many years, their skills cannot be underestimated. It is said that these eight people are good at traps and hunting methods. You can smell the smell clearly, for safety reasons, you can't bring this thing with you." Xu Nuo mused.
"Then how to send it to the leader?" the black-robed monster asked.
Xu Nuo raised the corners of his mouth, smiled and clapped his hands, "It's easy, you bring the incense burner under the table."
The black-robed monster looked left and right, and brought out a small incense burner for incense.Xu Nuo fished out an iron ball from his arms, twisted the iron ball left and right and split it into two halves. He stuffed the note into the iron ball, then put it into the incense burner, and finally asked the black-robed monster to put the incense burner back to its original place.
He promised, "I will hide this letter in this censer. You go to the leader first, and then come to Cangmang Sect to get the censer. If you are unfortunately caught, you can also guarantee that this letter will not fall into the hands of others."
"I know big brother, we will set off when Wu Nong finds a boat!"
"it is good."
After the two agreed, they each sat back in their original positions, looking peaceful.
Yuwen Wenjing took in everything from the beam, but she always felt something was wrong.
He quietly turned his head and looked around the furnishings in the house, feeling even weirder in his heart, but he couldn't find the reason.
Wu Nong went out this trip for a long time and didn't see him back. After Xu Nuo and the black-robed monster drank a cup of tea, they also felt something was wrong.
At this time, Luoying was the first to react.He was originally hiding in Yuwen Wenjing's arms, tightly wrapped, only heard the conversation between the two but couldn't see anything, so he focused all his attention on hearing and smell.It's a pity that he is only a little girl, and his hearing is not one ten thousandth as sensitive as Yuwen Wenjing's. Naturally, he didn't hear anything, but there was an inexplicable strange smell lingering at the tip of his nose, which made him feel puzzled.
A reckless gang, why is there such a soft fragrance on board?Although Luoying was puzzled, seeing that Yuwen Wenjing didn't react, she thought that he had already figured it out, so she calmed down.
After Xu Nuo and the black-robed monster finished drinking tea, Yu Wenwen's feeling of unhappiness became more urgent.Finally, Luoying couldn't stand the sweet smell, she pinched her nose and teased Yuwen Wenjing.Seeing his actions like this, Yu Wenwen suddenly felt dizzy.
Is there incense in this room? !
Incense!
Yuwen Wenjing suddenly looked at the small incense burners under the corners of the tables, and suddenly broke out in cold sweat, as she already had the answer in her heart.He raised his index finger around his mouth and made a silent gesture, signaling Luoying not to speak, while he tapped a few big acupuncture points, closing his eyes and resting his mind.
Xu Nuo and the black-robed monster finally couldn't help pinching their noses, and slapped their hands in front of them.
The black-robed monster asked in a low voice: "Brother, did you make a mistake? It's time to order a cup of tea for this Jiuyoumingxiang. Even a peerless master has to soften his strength and show his original shape. There seems to be no one else."
Only then did Xu Nuo stand up angrily, "It seems that I overestimated the Southern Xinjiang Bamo Sword. It would be best if they didn't catch up. You should put out the incense burner soon, take out the letter, and we'll be on our way immediately." He Because the movement was too big and the wound was pulled, he became even more annoyed, and scolded: "What's wrong with Wu Nong, he didn't return for a long time after asking him to call the boat, what a waste!"
As soon as the words were finished, there was a sudden sound of shouting and beating outside the house. Before the black-robed monster reached the incense burner, he was blocked by a person who broke into the door. He hurriedly stepped back to deploy his hidden weapon.
The man fell in front of the black-robed monster, yelled a few times and then vomited blood and died. The black-robed monster took a closer look and found that this man was Wu Nong, the boss of the Cangmang faction!He, how could he be beaten to death in his own territory?
