son-in-law

Chapter 507 Chapter [-]

The spring wind blows through Muyuan County in the morning, and the cotton clouds are floating in the sky. The distance is far away. You can see the sunshine from the small county town from the crack of the sky. The boundary of the sunshine follows the swimming of the clouds. Go, spread from the county seat.

After breakfast, Ning Yi and Tan'er walked towards the river bank. Not many people followed. This was considered a private time for the couple to get along.

The few knots in the past because of Yunzhu seem to have been resolved at this time. After that, the couple will return to Jiangning to pay homage to the family members who died in the Liangshan incident.But in fact, the time to get along this time is not much at the moment. First, because of Ning Yi's favor this time, there may be some trouble. The couple will not go south together. In the past two days, there have been some changes in the Buddha's situation, making it difficult for people to decide how to react.

However, as long as the husband and wife care for each other, these Xu questions are not too troublesome after all.

"...In this case, I originally thought that the two chief arresters would have to wait for a while before they started, but who would have known so much earlier, I am afraid that several big clans have already dispatched a lot of people... The situation is so chaotic, Xianggong Are you really going to intervene?"

Walking on the bank of the river, the one who spoke softly was Su Tan'er who was a little worried.She has been in charge of the family for so many years. Although she is a woman, she has enough decisiveness.It's just that she has never set foot in a higher level. When the incident involved the young master Wang Hao, and several big clans near the capital including Cai, Han, Zuo, Qi, etc., she trusted Ning Yi at the same time with a worried attitude. Lord, it makes sense.

Ning Yi naturally understands this. In fact, if it weren't for this incident, there was indeed a relationship between himself and Chen Fan, Liu Xigua and others, even if it involved other family members, with Su Tan'er's character, I'm afraid They will choose to avoid them far away, and it is best not to touch them at all.

"So I'm also considering this matter." Ning Yi nodded, "Before the situation is unknown, I'm not sure what to do. Although it is said that the Secret Investigation Division has certain supervisory powers over these matters, this time it involves It's too deep, they don't have any weapons of mass destruction for the time being, and rashly intervening is likely to cause public anger..."

Tan'er was walking forward with Ning Yi holding hands at this time, frowning: "Large-scale... lethal... weapons?"

"Oh, just kidding."

Tan'er pursed her lips, then rolled her eyes at Ning Yi, and said with a smile: "What time is it, Xianggong is still joking, that watermelon girl, I'm afraid someone is chasing her..."

"Then there's nothing I can do..."

The news about the incident of the Seven Buddhas in the south was actually transmitted this morning.

After Qin Siyuan's reunification, the functions of the Secret Investigation Division, which had been stagnant for a while, were gradually restored, but the business in the Wu Dynasty was actually complicated.It is not so much an investigation system under the control of the king's power, but a private soldier placed under the right minister in order to cooperate with the Northern Expedition.

After all, there were still many powerful figures in the political arena of the Wu Dynasty at this time. Coupled with the developed economy, several big families colluded with the officialdom and their forces were intertwined.Today's Sheng Zhou Zhe made a good trade-off, and it was only on the premise of making way for the Northern Expedition that he enabled a die-hard faction like Li Gang, and then supported Qin Siyuan, who was famous for his methods, and acquiesced to the existence of the Secret Investigation Division. , Just those big merchants who did business with the Liao Kingdom in the past and had entangled interests are enough to prevent the minister from leaving the capital. Even if Tong Guan and others can lead the northern expedition, the logistics must be a mess.

For this reason, after the restart of the Secret Investigation Division, more things have been done, not to maintain regional peace and stability, but to fight against the Second Prime Minister's various political enemies in the court and local areas.Although Ning Yi was involved in the events of Hangzhou and Liangshan, in fact it was not the main business of the Secret Investigation Division.

What kind of green forest heroes, thieves and bandits, the troubles they caused are actually not as big as the influence of an official in Beijing who secretly opposed the Northern Expedition and caused the relatives to follow the yin and yin.In later generations, the so-called "big men of heroes serve the country and the people", although it seems interesting, but in fact, considering the difficulty of control, training, and the cost of use, those rebellious green forest characters are actually not as good as ordinary farmers. Use, Qin Siyuan doesn't care about Zhou Tong, not because he is not unique, in fact, there is a reason.

Therefore, in the secret investigation department, the supervision of green forests is not a large proportion, and the court does not care about the lives of these people in principle.In the beginning, Ji Kun was looking at other things at random. After Ning Yi joined, although there was no need to say it clearly, most of the things were actually handed over to Ning Yi-this has always been considered to be Ning Yi's quirk- Qin Siyuan and others felt sorry for his lack of business, especially after Ning Yi was involved in other details related to overall planning.

Of course, after all, they are the acquaintances of gentlemen, and they do not have the status of master and apprentice.After saying it a few times, Qin Siyuan didn't talk about it any more. For Lu Lin, he meant "play it if you want".After that, most of the news about Green Forest will go to Ning Yi's side to file.

But this time is not the future after all, and the message transmission has its limitations. After Ning Yi came to Kihara, a lot of news would first come to the capital and then be sent to Kihara.Ning Yi deliberately asked people to stop on the way. This morning, he learned that Tie Tianying, Zong Feixiao and others had launched in advance and led their men to destroy the remnants of Fang Baihua.Fang Baihua's side suffered heavy casualties and did not show the advantage of being a group of martial arts masters, which proved that at least the same force was dispatched here.

The Secret Investigation Division has not enough manpower in this area, and the news that has come is only a rough idea. It is difficult for Ning Yi to understand the whole picture of the situation.It can only be speculated that the forces headed by Wang Hao, or a certain family, finally launched a thunderous strike.When these people attacked together, the Secret Investigation Division said that they had the responsibility and power to supervise, but in fact, they were not very provocative.

After reading it in the morning, he was silent for a while, then ate and exercised, teasing the child as usual, but Su Tan'er naturally understood what her husband was thinking, and what he said at this time was exactly the worry he might have in his heart.The two walked by the river bank for a while, but Ning Yi did not shy away from it.

"...Some people, I really hope they can live, but...the wind will come and go, the clouds will gather and the clouds will disperse, if things don't go according to people's wishes, it will be fate, but it's okay, Chen Fan and the others are very powerful …”

This can be said simply, but the actual meaning is quite heavy.The two stood on the river bank, and Tan'er squeezed his palms with both hands, but did not speak.After a while, she still showed a soft smile, sighed, and Ning Yi squeezed the back of her hand.

The two sat down on the bank of the river, and then chatted about the time to go south to Jiangning.After returning to the county seat, near the rented yard, people inside and outside the yard are still doing their jobs in an orderly manner.Not far away, the warehouse construction site was in full swing. The steward responsible for reporting here occasionally came in and out of the hospital door. The cook who bought the meals came in with the goods from the side door. Xiao Chan pushed Ning Xi's little wooden cart to play in the yard. Several "salesmen" brought by Yi Cong have been released to investigate the situation nearby.

Ning Yi would occasionally go out to see the situation on the construction site, occasionally come back to settle accounts for his wife, or walk under the eaves or in the courtyard, where the sun sets and the air is warm and pleasant.But perhaps there is something difficult to resolve in my heart, and the spring afternoon actually makes people feel a bit like a dull summer.

However, not long after the time passed, a new message was passed over. After Ning Yi read it, he frowned and thought for a long time.When Su Tan'er came over with a plate of round and glutinous pastries, Ning Yi was standing under the eaves looking at the flowerpot in a daze. The flowerpot was planted by Xing'er, and now two buds have just grown. Son.

"Xiang Gong, what's the matter?" Tan'er asked suspiciously while holding the plate.

Ning Yi turned his head to look at her, then smiled, but the smile was rather complicated. He thought for a while before taking out a piece of paper behind his back, and said, "Nothing...weapons of mass destruction... It seems there is."

"Ok?"

Tan'er's expression was slightly stunned, she subconsciously licked a finger that was supposed to be stained with sugar, and then handed the plate to Ning Yi, took the information in his hand, and at a glance, His brows also furrowed.

"I didn't think it would be such a news." Ning Yi held the plate, "The Secret Investigation Division is understaffed in this area, but the person who is arranged there is obviously an old hand. As soon as I get the news, I think I can make a fuss. , and it came over immediately. 'Mad Tiger' Wang Nanda, I have heard this name once before, and in the rumors, I thought he was dead."

"Xianggong plans to use this as a fuss?"

"I'm still thinking about how to intervene... After all, the news is too little."

Ning Yi stuffed a cake into his mouth and said in a low voice.The news that came in the afternoon was a supplement to the situation in the south. In this siege of Fang Baihua, there were people who were suspected of being the "crazy tiger" Wang Nanda back then, and among the people who participated, it seemed that there were quite a few of them back then. Manichean old man.

"If what is said above is true..." Tan'er thought for a while, "This matter may even involve the... Sikong Nan that Xianggong said before?"

Most of the information in the Green Forest is chasing the wind. If Fang La's trouble can still be involved in the infighting of Manichaeism more than ten years ago, it's hard to believe, so Ning Yi shook his head.

"This news is also a bit ambiguous and cannot be trusted, but if Manichaeism is really involved, it is not impossible. More than ten years ago, Manichaeism itself was a major folk religion. In the internal purge, some powerful people seized the opportunity to give these people asylum. How far I can do it, I can't control it now."

Tan'er held the piece of paper and hesitated for a moment: "When you get there...you can see it more clearly..."

"..."

"...Then leave early." After she said this, her eyes became clear, and then she sighed, took a breath, looked at him and smiled, "Is it delicious?"

"This?" Ning Yi held the soft pastry in his hand, "Not bad."

"I just made it, let's wrap it up for you to eat on the road." She came over to take the plate in Ning Yi's hand, and then touched her head on Ning Yi's shoulder, "These trivial things, go home when you have eyes on them, I I'll be waiting for you in Jiangning." Ning Yi smiled and patted the back of her hand.

The reason is one thing. When you really want to get involved in this kind of thing, it is not an easy decision. After Tan'er left, Ning Yi still stood under the eaves for a while before sighing and calling. Zhu Biao.

"Inform everyone to prepare their weapons and prepare to leave. We have a project... The martial arts master you have been thinking about also has it."

"Ah? Who?" Zhu Biao's eyes lit up, and Ning Yi smiled and showed him the news.

"'Crazy Tiger' Wang Nanda, who was a master more than ten years ago, may involve more powerful characters this time. Anyway... let's prepare first."

"Yes." Zhu Biao took the order and happily went over to convene the person. Ning Yi then called another manager of the Secret Investigation Division in the team.

"Notify all available personnel in the area of ​​Chongping County, including the contact person who passed the news. The stakes are very important, and we have to go there."

The man took the order and went out. Ning Yi sorted out the packages, muskets, crossbows, lime powder and other items in the room. When he went out, he saw Xiaochan holding Ning Xi standing in the corridor outside the door, watching He, Xiao Ningxi opened her hand to let him hug him, but Xiao Chan blinked her eyes, trying to speak, but she didn't seem to be able to speak. Ning Yi went over to hug the child and hug Xiao Chan again: "It's okay, this time it will be very soon, let's meet Jiangning."

"Don't get hurt..." Xiaochan said softly.

Ning Yi thought for a while, then nodded with a smile.

*******************
In the afternoon, among the mountains and hills hundreds of miles away in the south, it was raining. The oily spring rain soaked the whole world.Not long ago, the battle between people of all sizes and belonging to martial arts was still started in this mountain, and now it has gradually become silent.The heavy rain washed away the blood, soaked the corpse, and began to blur the traces on the ground that could be traced, so that the disadvantaged side who had passed through the mountains and fields could get a little breather.

Located in a nunnery among the rolling hills and mountains, occasionally there is a sound of groaning due to pain under the eaves of dripping rain.A figure carrying a scorpion passed through the courtyard. When she opened the scorpion, the slightly pale and haggard face of Watermelon was revealed. She looked at Fang Baihua, whose face was even more haggard due to the injury, and shook her head.

"The neighborhood is fine for the time being, no one is chasing after..."

Fang Baihua nodded, and Watermelon turned to go elsewhere.There are not many people gathered here now, and more than half of them have been injured. Xigua walked to the place where Fang Shuchang and others gathered. Their injuries were light or serious, and the most serious of them was Du Kill.During the battle, his arm was poisoned. In order to save his life, Fang Shuchang chopped off his entire left arm on the spot. At this time, the man with only his right hand was lying on the ground, and blood was still seeping from the bandage on his left arm. , no one knows if he can survive this.

In the mountains dozens of miles away from this nunnery, another figure walked through the grass and trees.Chen Fan carried Ji Qian'er, the "Mandarin Duck Knife" on his back, all the way, and the two wore a coat hurriedly woven from wormwood to keep out the rain.Due to Ji Qianer's serious injury, Chen Fan almost tied her to her back, which caused a lot of protests.

"...you put me down, I can go by myself."

"...You come down now to drag me down. You haven't gotten rid of the gang of offal, save your energy."

"Put down the old lady and you will know who is dragging who!"

"...I'm not a 12-year-old kid anymore, how can I still be cheated by you? Stop arguing."

Although carrying a person on his back, Chen Fan has a long breath, agile walking, and extremely fast speed across mountains.In fact, martial arts practitioners usually study medicine, at least in terms of internal and external injuries, no one can hide from another.

"...Humph! I don't want to argue with you, but...it's not out of the woods yet. It's good that you can save me. If you can't save me, I'll take you on board, and I'll be reluctant to be a ghost..."

"...Take your heart, I, Chen Fan, are almost invincible in the world, you...be careful..."

"Beware!"

The words of the two came out at almost the same time, Chen Fan suddenly turned sideways, and Ji Qianer swiped a knife, smashing a locust stone.The next moment, Chen Fan's body broke through the rain curtain and rushed out like a tiger to the bushes in front of him.

In the bushes, before a man's spear was raised, Chen Fan rushed over and slammed his arm with a bang. There was a loud bang in the rain curtain, and the water splashed. The man's spear was broken, and he even carried the gun It was directly smashed into the grass and mud behind, the blood burst open for a moment, and someone next to him slashed with a knife. The blood lines were drawn out, and when Chen Fan rolled off the ground with Ji Qianer on his back, a single knife in Ji Qianer's hand swept the grass on the ground and flew out, followed by Chen Fan. One stone thrown, one knife and one stone, almost simultaneously hit an enemy who was hiding a few meters away.

When Chen Fan stood firm, in just a short while, the four people who were ambushed here were all dead.

"...Cough..." Ji Qianer took a few deep breaths behind Chen Fan, "Your reaction is a little slow."

"Although Sister Qian'er, you taught me how to use a knife, but now everyone's realm is different, I think it's still a bit difficult to accommodate you."

Ji Qian'er raised her left hand with difficulty, and then slapped it on Chen Fan's head.Chen Fan tilted his head and smiled. When he felt that the man behind him was breathing evenly, he walked forward and pulled out the knife Ji Qianer threw from the corpse.

"Don't want to drag me down, just take the knife."

"It's up to you! The knife doesn't leave the body."

After she said these words, her body suddenly shook, and Chen Fan felt a hot, sticky liquid spit on the back of his neck, which was a mouthful of blood.But he held up Ji Qian'er's legs as if he didn't realize it.

"gone."

"You better hurry up and don't slow down like a bitch."

Squinting slightly, Chen Fan still walked steadily forward, and seemed unaware of the bad fact that he had been trapped in the center of the enemy's pursuit.

"One more trip, and I will meet with Xigua and the others. That's it. Then I can let go of your burden and come back to kill that guy named Wang Nanda. I haven't played so smoothly for many years... You give me some energy, sister Qian'er, I let you ride on my back, I hope you can see people from a higher height, if you fall asleep, your forehead is because It's too conspicuous to be shot by an arrow, but I'll die laughing..."

"...Cough, Xiaofan, do you know...you are getting more and more noisy..."

********************
It was raining, and in the camp that was also immersed in the rain, Fang Qifo raised his head slightly to look at the raindrops falling from the sky.

At the same time, to the south, on the official road that was still more than a hundred miles away, there was a trace of hope that he had originally laid down on the return to heaven, and it was galloping from the official road at this time.It was a group of nine horses composed of merchants and wealthy young masters, galloping fast in the rain. Considering their status, they shouldn't have rushed so quickly, but considering some things, they can only do so.

If you can have a particularly good memory, you have once stayed in the vicinity of Fang La's army in some places.Perhaps there is a certain chance that they will be able to recognize it. The nine horsemen in front of them basically belong to a very special unit in Fang La's army. This team is nominally under Fang Baihua's command, and its name is Hei Lingwei.

The most elite military team under Fang Baihua's command, which consisted of hundreds of people at the beginning, was the only one who could gather now.After receiving the news, the people who were still secretly operating in the south quickly headed north, hoping to catch up with Fang Baihua and others in time, giving them a little hope. At this time, a few people were running wild in the rain, and no one knew whether they would catch up. , or a missed opportunity.And just as he turned a muddy curve ahead, a few travelers in shovels suddenly greeted them in their field of vision.

Among the nine people, the wealthy son in the lead suddenly pulled up the reins, and at that moment, the traveler at the front opened his clothes.

The light of the knife was cut out and penetrated into the heavy rain like snowflakes.

After a few swipes, the blood shot from the galloping horse's body sprayed into the air, like a large cloud of scarlet blood. .It was also because the galloping horse was so fast that the man did not slash all the time after he took out the knife. Instead, he slammed the half-horse corpse and the rich boy out with a stick that seemed to be an understatement but was actually sturdy and unremarkable.In this collision, the leaves stood upright like swords, and then slammed back.

The body of the galloping horse was scattered everywhere, the blood soaked in the rain, the rich boy was knocked into the mud three feet away, and he struggled to get up. Swords were drawn on both sides of the road. The man said with joy and anger, "An Xifu."

The rich boy was soaked in muddy water. After standing up straight, his body shook a few times. After a long while, he nodded: "Wang Yin...Wang Shangshu...why?"

There was silence for a moment, and some sighs: "I don't want to... But you should know that this is the end, there is no luck..."

Under Fang La's command, Shang Shu Wang Yin was both civil and military. Although he didn't take many shots, in the eyes of many experts, he was even more terrifying than Shi Bao, Si Xingfang, Li Tianrun, Deng Yuanjue and others.After Fang La died, he had disappeared in front of everyone's eyes for a long time, but at this time he reappeared and stood in the way.An Xifu nodded, and after a moment, nodded again, and laughed: "Hahahaha...hahahaha..."

In the heavy rain, his face was pale, and his laughter was especially pathetic, and then he suddenly drew his sword and rushed towards Wang Yin!
**********************
Kihara.

When I went to find Zhu Biao in the past, more than 20 people there were checking the weapons and crossbows in their hands. In these years, the crossbows that are stringed by machine wheels are forbidden items like guns in later generations, and ordinary troops cannot get them. The most lethal weapon in the world.Ning Yi roughly talked about the destination of this trip to the south.

"...As for the specific situation, we can only know from the area of ​​Da Chongping, but this time it may be related to the remnants of Manichaeism. It is a tough battle. You have been training for so long, although your martial arts have improved, but who Don't take it lightly. Including Zhu Biao, I know that you have long wanted to find a master, and there will be a chance..."

Hearing him say Zhu Biao, everyone laughed, Ning Yi reached out and pressed it in the air.

"I'm not joking. In addition, the demons are cruel, sinister and cunning, and everyone will kill them. Once it is confirmed that they are really involved this time, I will also remind you that you don't need to talk to them about these villains. Morality, we are officials, they are thieves, remember it for me!"

"Yes-" everyone said in unison with awe.

"Okay, just remember." Ning Yi's tone turned gentle, and he shook the crossbow in his hand, and then seemed to suddenly remember something, "By the way, also, this time in the past, in order not to startle the snake, I will not My name is Ning Yi."

He thought for a while: "No matter who asks... I'll call Cheng Zhouhai."

Compared to the heavy rain hundreds of miles away to the south, at this time in Kihara, the sun was still falling to the ground from the gap between the clouds.Not long after, a few carriages left the small county town under the sky, carrying a mere twenty people, and then Shi Shiran drove towards the south...

　I was playing at a friend's house recently.In the past two days, I finally got the direction of the whole episode. Yesterday, I vowed to tell people that I would update it today. Today, I typed [-] words. When the code arrived in the afternoon, the network at my friend’s house was suddenly cut off. The most strange thing is, There are two networks in my friend's house, one is telecom and the other is China Unicom, but they are all disconnected. The problem of telecom seems to be that there is no signal coming from the network cable.This reminds me of the sudden power outage when I broke the update last time and finally got the code out... In the evening, my friend bought two crystal heads and came back, and we were doing research with wire strippers. Unicom's network is done, and then I turn on the computer and find that the telecom is fine...

God is really playing with me...
