Martial Arts: Gain a Jiazi internal force at the beginning!

Chapter 99
The rumors in Benma County were not exaggerated.

After two days, it almost subsided gradually.

And for the past two days, Jiang Ran stayed with Ma Ye all the time.

After several days of thinking, Gui Shisan finally decided to join forces with Li Tianxin and Jiang Ran.

It's just that now I have nothing to do, I can only stay in the room every day and wait for the opportunity.

Ma Ye investigated the news about the man who met the old drunkard that day, but there has been no progress.

Not only him, but even the perennial years have not found any clues.

This made Jiang Ran feel a little strange.

Judging from the characteristics of that person, if someone encounters it, they should not have the slightest impression.

However, relying on Ma Ye and the perennial ability of black and white, he couldn't find any clues, or there was no such person at all.

Or, it is that this person's ability is much greater than imagined.

However, although the investigation of this person has no news, another matter that Zuo Daozhuang asked to investigate all the year round has gone smoothly beyond ordinary.

This is even more puzzling.

You know, after 20 years, the so-called clue is nothing more than a swordsman passing by Benma County with a child.

Borrow milk to feed the child.

In the past 20 years, which direction should we investigate this trivial matter?

But after checking it out, there was already news.

After two days, it was found out in perennial that this family moved out of Benma County three months ago.

Now he lives in a place called 'Wenxianglin' ​​ten miles outside Benma County.

"The traces are too obvious."

In the county government office, in the perennial room, Jiang Ran said thoughtfully:

"However, Mr. Chang, if it's your position, is the trace obvious? Is it possible that someone is plotting behind it? In fact, you don't even care about it, do you?"

Smile all the year round:
"Exactly, not only will I not care, but I will also make it quite difficult.

"It will take another two days to inform the other party about this matter.

"Lest they find out that the investigation of this matter is so easy."

"From this point of view, the reason why the people behind it dare to cast clues so boldly is because they have calculated the attitude of adults.

"It's just that he is also sure that the people from Zuodaozhuang will come..."

Jiang Ran sighed softly:

"What's more, he deliberately leaked his whereabouts."

The person behind this scheme is an old alcoholic, right?

What is the purpose of his move?
Is it simply wanting to deal with Zuo Daozhuang?
That's not right... 20 years ago, he was able to penetrate the entire Zuodao Village by himself and snatch away Qiuyue Cicada's slough.

If you want to deal with them, why bother?

Otherwise, could it be that something happened to him in the past 20 years?Martial arts are not as good as before?

So I haven't seen it for 20 years, that he hides it so deeply?
But if this is the case, why should he reveal the traces? If a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, the intention of this move cannot be explained.

After thinking about the old drunkard's intentions for a while, he found that what this old man was thinking, judging from what he knew now, it was really impossible to guess.

Simply stop thinking about it.

Instead, I inquired about another matter with Perennial.

"Master Chang, do you know that there is any dangerous place near Benma County?"

"A dangerous place?"

After thinking about it for a while, he said:
"It's not that there is no... Benma County to the north, less than twenty miles away, there is a valley.

"Miasma pervades the valley all the year round, and anyone who strays into it, regardless of whether they are humans or animals, will fall to the ground and eventually die inside.

"That place is called the 'Valley of Rebirth' by the locals, and it is very unknown.

"Besides, there are several villages left after the war disaster.

"There are only ruins left at this meeting. I heard that many people strayed in late at night and were trapped inside. It seems that ghosts hit the wall...

"However, it's hard to say whether this is true or not, let's just say it, let's just listen to it.

"There is another place, that is 'Yinlongpo'.

"There are often disappearances in that place, obviously it's just a dirt slope, you can see the head at a glance, but when you hit the people who pass by, they say nothing.

"The previous county magistrate went to investigate in person, and he didn't file a case, so I don't know what he found.

"But after that, Yinlongpo was forbidden to set foot.

"If you want to talk about dangerous places, it's probably these three places."

Jiang Ran was a little surprised when he heard this, and thought that Benma County is not big, but it is in danger everywhere.

After a little thought, he nodded:

"Thank you, Lord Chang, um, about asking Xianglin, please hold back first, don't go into details with Zuo Daozhuang.

"However, in two days at most, I will give you an explanation."

"it is good."

Nian Nian nodded: "Then please trouble Jiang Shaoxia."

"Your Excellency is welcome."

Jiang Ran stood up, cupped his fists and said goodbye.

In the next two days, Jiang Ran did not continue to enjoy the happiness with Master Ma.

He ran away for two days in a row, leaving early and returning late.

Li Tianxin and Gui Shisan just watched him coming in and out every day, but they didn't know what he was busy with.

Asked him, he said the time has not come.

The two angry people wanted to join forces to hold him there and torture him to extract a confession.

The only thing I was worried about was that I would not be able to beat him, and I would let Jiang Ran clean up later.

In the past two days, it was a snap of the fingers again.

On the morning of the third day, in the inn, Liu Wenshan, who had been unconscious all this time, opened his eyes.

At this moment, a lot of people have gathered in the inn.

Tong Wanli's group of friends has arrived.

After Liu Wenshan woke up, he first thanked Tong Wanli, and then hugged Mingyue and wept bitterly.

After finally eating and drinking something, Tong Wanli began to ask about Jiao Weiqin's whereabouts.

He said that now Jiao Weiqin has become the target of public criticism, and if he can't find it, he will have no peace.

Liu Wenshan struggled for a long time before he let out a long sigh and gave an answer:
"I'll take you there."

Ye Jingshuang's heart tightened when she heard this, and she wanted to send a letter to Jiang Ran.

However, since she came to Benma County, she has been staying in the inn all the time, and has never been to other places.

If you want to find Jiang Ran, you don't even know where he is now.

It can only be down-to-earth.

After all, Jiang Ran took himself away from the light in order to act in secret.

Guessing the situation in the inn, he must be clear.

Then he packed up his luggage with everyone, found a soft sedan chair and carried Liu Wenshan out the door.

After going out, everyone headed north all the way.

While walking, Liu Wenshan said:
"Jiao Weiqin's location is more dangerous. Among the people that Brother Tong is traveling with, is there anyone who is proficient in medical skills?"

"Have."

Tong Wanli nodded:
"Brother Liu, don't worry, the masters we have gathered here now, look around the world, and we can explore everywhere."

After hearing this, Ye Jingshuang turned her eyes around the people around her.

Now gathered around, including her, Tong Wanli, Tong Yanzhou Wang, and Liu Wenshan... a total of thirteen people.

This number is actually not too many.

Ye Jingshuang had never heard of these people.

After asking about Tong Wanli, Tong Wanli smiled and said that these people are all masters who do not go out of the rivers and lakes.

He is not well-known in the Jianghu, and he just became acquainted with it by accident.

It is common sense that Ye Jingshuang didn't know him.

Ye Jingshuang still wanted to ask, but Tong Wanli didn't want to talk anymore.

In addition, there is a Tong Yan behind him... There is no chance to ask again.

Tong Yan has basically recovered after this period of cultivation.

Every day, he followed Ye Jingshuang step by step.

One bite at a time, comfort her not to be sad because of the rumors from the outside world.

The tone is sincere and touching.

If it wasn't for Ye Jingshuang who already understood the truth and falsehood, I'm afraid she would be really moved by it.

But now, she just wants to draw her sword and kill people.

Especially now when she hears Tong Yan calling her her younger sister, she feels unspeakably sick.

Resisting it and telling myself, a little unbearable will lead to a big conspiracy.

That's why he barely made a move.

A group of people stopped and went, and within a short period of time, they had already traveled more than ten miles.

Liu Wenshan pointed out the path all the way, sometimes stopping and sometimes going back.

After walking for a few miles, everyone felt that the ground under their feet was gradually spreading down.

There was even a bit of mist floating around indistinctly.

As the footsteps deepened, the fog became thicker.

You can't see your fingers when you stretch out your hands gradually.

"What is this place?"

Looking at the fog, Tong Wanli couldn't help frowning.

"This is the Valley of Rebirth."

Liu Wenshan said softly:
"This place is shrouded in mist, and further forward there is a miasma, which is full of dangers.

"Back then...Ye Konggu and I hid Jiao Weiqin here. With this natural danger blocking us, we can keep Jiao Wei safe."

Tong Wanli thought about it carefully, then nodded:

"It's really a good place."

"The place is good."

Liu Wenshan smiled:

"It's just that this place is too dangerous, everyone should be careful."

While he was speaking, he shouted again:
"Frost."

"Uncle."

Ye Jingshuang hurried to the front.

Liu Wenshan said with a smile:

"Jingshuang, you just follow me."

"it is good."

Ye Jingshuang nodded: "I will definitely protect my uncle."

"Good boy..."

Before he finished speaking, Tong Yan also joined in:

"I will also take good care of Gu... Uncle Liu."

Liu Wenshan glanced at him, smiled and nodded.

This move seemed to have given Tong Yan great encouragement, and he lifted his spirits for a while.

Tong Wanli frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

But for a while, I couldn't think of it.

Immediately, someone dispensed some detoxification drugs, and then continued to walk inside.

The so-called miasma is actually not a mystery.

In addition to some specific diseases, the poisonous gas condensed after the dead leaves of animals and trees rot in the mountains and forests is the so-called miasma.

Everyone took the antidote pill and continued to move forward.

Ye Jingshuang originally wanted to take the detoxification pill given by Tong Wanli, but Liu Wenshan grabbed her sleeve and stuffed another pill in her hand.

This made Ye Jingshuang's pupils shrink suddenly.

Liu Wenshan refused to allow himself to take Tong Wanli's medicine... Does this mean that Liu Wenshan doesn't trust Tong Wanli! ?
Thinking of this, her mind has gradually become active.

But at this time and this place, she couldn't allow her to think too much, after secretly stuffing the detoxification pill into her mouth, she continued on her way.

Suddenly, Tong Wanli shouted lightly:
"Stay on!"

Everyone stopped when they heard the sound, but Tong Wanli frowned: "Did you hear anything nearby?"

A group of people, you look at me, I look at you, and one of the people in the entourage chuckled and said:
"Old boy, this land is certainly dangerous, but your being so suspicious makes it even more frightening.

"People scare people and scare people to death, so don't bluff."

Tong Wanli was silent for a moment, then pointed out:
"Look, is there a shadow over there?"

The fog in this place is better than the outside. Although it is not visible, people standing around can't see clearly.

Everyone followed Tong Wanli's finger to look.

It was a little creepy for a while.

I saw a figure of Zhang Er, standing tall and straight in front of a tree.

It's so shadowy that it can't be seen clearly, but it really seems to be a burly person.

However, the location of this person is not too far from them.

But when they got here, they didn't realize it at all.

Once this person makes a surprise attack... How many of them can resist them?
Thinking of this, when everyone looked at each other, they heard a cold snort:
"A person who pretends to be a ghost, dare to be rampant in front of me!?"

His voice fell, and his figure disappeared.

It was like a floating shadow in the forest, or like the darkness in the fog, but with just a thought, he had already arrived in front of that figure.

None of the people present stopped this person's actions.

As a result, when the man arrived in front of him, he let out a 'huh'.

Immediately afterwards, he returned hand in hand with that huge figure.

At this moment, everyone on the scene raised their hearts, probably because this mysterious person restrained his companion, and was called to question him.

But when the two shadows came in front of them, everyone could see clearly.

Where is that burly man?
It's just a rotting bear!
Everyone looked at each other for a while.

It is not uncommon for this bear to die here... After all, there is a poisonous miasma around.

But the question is, how did it die like a person?
Tong Wanli endured the stench emanating from the bear, and came to him to examine it carefully. Suddenly, his pupils shrank suddenly:
"No! It wasn't harmed by this miasma, it was killed by someone!

"And, just between these two days.

"Look at its throat!"

Everyone heard the words and went to look immediately, and sure enough, they saw a thin mark on the bear's throat.

"Is it a knife mark?"

If it's a sword, it's probably piercing through.

The sword masters stabbing, and the sword masters cutting.

The sword body is slender, if it is used for chopping, it is very likely to damage the sword body.

Especially this bear, with rough skin and thick flesh, I am afraid that no one is willing to cut its neck like this with a sword.

And when this thought arose, Tong Wanli's uneasiness had reached its extreme.

"There is someone here!"

The moment the thought of these four words appeared in my mind, I heard the sound of footsteps coming one after another.

At the same time, there was a whistling sound in the air.

It seems that something huge is coming through the void.

Just heard a voice shout:
"There is an uninvited guest, probably because of that thing!!"

Hearing this, Tong Wanli's hairs stood on end, and the first thought that came to his mind was...they are here to grab Jiao Weiqin! ?
But the problem is, I got the news from Liu Wenshan.

How did this group of people know that Jiao Weiqin was hiding here?

Before he could react, he heard a muffled sound of piercing through the air, and when he looked up, he saw a golden tripod oppressing the air and smashing down hard.

Tong Wanli was taken aback:
"Golden Tripod?"

However, at this moment, I can't take care of other thoughts.

With the two palms together, the Ever-changing Tianluo Palm was sent out suddenly, and there was a muffled bang.

The golden tripod trembled, and Jin Sanding's wolf howl came from inside.

Tong Wanli's face also sank, Jin Sanding's martial arts thief was deadly, his internal strength was strong, and he added the weight of a tripod.

Reaching out and hard-pressing the truth is a desperate move.

At this time, when he was hit by this huge force, although his feet didn't move, his whole body was pushed by this huge force, and he couldn't help backing up.

Both sides around were shaken by this internal force, and the sound of shocking explosions could be heard all of a sudden.

At the same time, a group of strangely dressed people around also rushed forward one after another, and without any explanation, they immediately came out as killers.

Tong Yan and Zhou Wang looked at each other, not knowing what happened.

Ye Jingshuang stood in front of Liu Wenshan with a long sword in his hand.

The rest of the people looked at each other, and then laughed:
"A group of lifeless things!!"

Immediately, they all jumped up and rushed into the crowd.

The martial arts of this group of people are not inferior to Tong Wanli.

Wherever he went, there was almost no single enemy.

Among the people brought by Jin Sanding, more than half of them were killed or injured in the blink of an eye.

Ye Jingshuang's expression changed greatly.

Where did Tong Wanli find so many masters?

Just as she was ignoring her, a figure touched her side at some point.

When she realized something, someone grabbed her shoulders.

As soon as my heart tightened, I felt that the whole person was already flying through the clouds.

Tong Yan and Zhou Wang sensed that something was wrong, turned their heads quickly, and saw that both Ye Jingshuang and Liu Wenshan had disappeared.

Ye Jingshuang only felt the shade of the trees around her change, and when her figure settled down, she stopped on a stone not far away.

From a distance, people could be seen rolling and fighting in the mist.

But the specifics are unclear.

She shook her shoulders and turned her inner breath, trying to break free from the restraint.

But before she opened the man's palm with internal force, the man let go of it first.

"The battle between the snipe and the clam is over, and the fisherman will benefit next."

Liu Wenshan's voice reached Ye Jingshuang's ears at this moment.

Ye Jingshuang's eyes widened.

Sandpiper and clam fighting?

Could it be that……

The next moment she heard a voice that was familiar to her bones laughing:
"This is thanks to the seniors for their help.

"Otherwise, it would not be so simple to attract them all."

"... Brother Jiang?"

Ye Jingshuang turned to look.

In the end, I saw a young man dressed in brightly colored clothes, whose original appearance could hardly be seen, holding a gourd of wine, tilting his neck and pouring it into his mouth.

Hearing Ye Jingshuang's voice, he looked back at the girl, smiled and presented his wine gourd:
"Have a bite?"
