Our lord is upright [crossing]

"Leader, the Qijue gang sent word that a batch of their supplies had been robbed, killing and injuring many brothers in the gang." Lingyou stood at the bottom of the hall and reported the news he had just received, "Their Gang Leader Ge said that the few disciples who survived all said that it was the work of the Demon Cult."

"It's the Devil's Cult again?" Rong Zhenzhen didn't look very anxious as he propped his chin with one hand, "How many times is this the first time after the end of the Chinese New Year? Endless?"

"Leader, should we take the initiative to attack? These Demon Cultists come and go without a trace, and all of them are highly skilled in martial arts. I'm afraid it won't work to rely on those small sects to protect themselves." Ling You thought deeply, "Go on There will definitely be more and more things like this.”

Rong Zhenzhen stuffed sweet-scented osmanthus candy into his mouth, and after thinking for a while, he said: "You continue to let people stare at all the strangers in the Jianghu, and send people to the Qijue Gang to appease Chief Ge, and say that I will definitely Find an opportunity to avenge him, and let him not act without authorization."

"Yes." Lingyou took the order, raised his head to look at Rong Zhenzhen, and asked a little hesitantly: "Leader, do you still think that this matter is not necessarily the work of the Demon Cult?"

Rong Zhenzhen glanced at him, and slowly shook his head: "I'm not sure. But Ah Ling, we can't easily provoke a struggle with any force, otherwise the price is something that neither you nor I can afford to pay."

Lingyou was a little dazed.

"Fighting is easy to say. I can gather the eight major sects and many small sects in the Jianghu right now, and I can kill them and go to the Western Regions to seek revenge and settle accounts with them. Anyone can play with the bravery of a man. However, it is not the time yet."

"The fish king is out, do you know what that means?"

Lingyou still shook his head.

"It's not been a day or two since the imperial court saw us as displeased. It's just that there is no excuse to deal with us. At this time, Yu Wang suddenly left the capital. What do you think he wants to do?"

Ling You was asked three times in a row, still with the same dazed look on his face, as if he didn't understand at all.

Rong Zhenzhen looked up to the sky and sighed, forget it, can't this gang of martial arts knights have a brain?This day is like being silly and sweet.

"It's a secret that King Yu went out of the city this time. He's a private visit through a WeChat server. Although his whereabouts haven't been found out yet, I guess...he's probably here for us."

"Recently, people from the Devil's Cult have been running out as if they don't want money, causing trouble everywhere and leaving evidence on purpose, for fear that others will not know that they are members of the Devil's Cult."

"I'm puzzled. If the big brothers of the Demon Cult really did something good, the logic of chasing them away should leave no one alive. Why do you still keep a few young people to go back and report the news?"

Hearing this, Lingyou finally came out of his bewildered state, "I understand! The leader means that the imperial court may sow dissension in the middle, pretend to be the devil's sect and set the blame, let us fight with the devil's sect In a fight, it’s best for both sides to lose, and they will benefit from it?”

"This is just my guess." Rong Zhenzhen rubbed his forehead, "Maybe it's not all right, I think the real Demon Cultists have indeed come, but their whereabouts are more secretive now, I don't know what they are planning."

"That's why I think the current situation is very complicated. People from the imperial court and people from the Demon Cult, we can't tell who is who, we are too passive." Rong Zhenzhen collapsed at the table, "A Ling, what happened this time is not good. It's as simple as before."

"In the past, we only needed to unite our brothers to complete the mission, but now we have more than one opponent. Whether it is the imperial court or the Devil's Cult, they all want to kill us. Maybe the Devil's Cult can draw with us, but we really have to wait until On the day when the imperial court took action, those of us were no match for the cavalry with thousands of troops and horses."

"do you understand me?"

Lingyou was silent for a long time, and suddenly he lowered his head and knelt on one knee: "This subordinate understands that everything is at the command of the leader, and this subordinate is willing to go through fire and water."

"Get up first." Rong Zhenzhen waved his hands lazily, "Why kneel to me? I'm not a god, so I can't think of any good way to protect you all once and for all. If it doesn't work, let's run away."

Lingyou refused to stand up, he bowed his head and said: "Leader, this subordinate will not run away."

"This subordinate once promised Master that regardless of life or death, he will definitely stay by the side of the lord's mansion, and advance and retreat with his colleagues in the rivers and lakes."

"But you and the second young lady and the young master, the subordinates will definitely take good care of you."

Rong Zhenzhen looked up at the kneeling young man for a long time, then suddenly asked: "A Ling, are you 23 this year?"

"Yes."

"You are so old, don't you want a daughter-in-law?"

Lingyou shook his head: "This subordinate is dull and has no ambition, who would like to follow me?"

"Nonsense." Rong Zhenzhen sat up straight and looked at Ling You, "You are so handsome, there are many people who have a crush on you, don't think I don't know."

Lingyou remained silent.

"I said that you have been a stubborn person since you were a child. You listen to what my uncle says, so you have no plans of your own? Do you know what happens to those who oppose the court? Since ancient times, there has been no good. Yes, especially if you meet a faint king, it will be even worse."

"Our emperor is getting older, and he is more suspicious and cruel than before. He really wants to kill us. Let me tell you, the entire martial arts world is not enough for him to kill even the nine tribes."

"In this world, there are not many wise emperors like the former emperor. Not everyone belongs to Xie Yuanjia."

Rong Zhenzhen sighed and said, "I have no choice until the last moment, and I will not leave. You are my good brother, and I also care about you."

Lingyou was very moved.

Lu Guanyun knocked on the door and walked in. He glanced at Ling You blankly, probably because he didn't understand what was going on with these two people.Rong Zhenzhen hurriedly sat down, and asked kindly: "What's wrong with Xiaoyun?"

"My herbs are used up, I want to go to the mountains to pick some more." Lu Guanyun replied honestly, "Do you have time recently?"

"Yes, yes, I have too much time!" Rong Zhen really wanted to leave the mansion, preferably far away from Liu Hanyue, and immediately agreed to go together, "When are you leaving?"

Lu Guanyun replied: "Let's go tomorrow morning."

Rong Zhenzhen then complied, and asked A Ruan to prepare it after returning to the house that night, A Ruan was a little puzzled: "Master Lu is going to collect medicine, why does Brother Rong also go with him?"

"Because he is road-crazy and has no ability to take care of himself." Rong Zhenzhen explained, "Apart from his talent in medicine, he is a level nine disabled in other places. If he is allowed to go out by himself, he will not be able to find him next year." On the way back, I can’t even get stuttering outside, so what can I do if I don’t follow?”

Ah Ruan showed a sympathetic expression.

Rong Zhenzhen thought about it, and added: "You can come with me tomorrow, and I will take you outside the city to relax."

"Me? I want to go too?" Ah Ruan didn't understand anymore.

"I'm afraid that if you are in the mansion, Liu Hanyue will make trouble for you. What if she wants to kill you again next time, what should I do if I'm not here?" The haughty temperament is really spoiled, if he really wants to kill, Ah Ruan will be cold when he comes back.

Hearing this, Ah Ruan showed a gentle look on his face, he nodded and said, "I see, then I'll go back and prepare."

Watching him turn and leave, Rong Zhenzhen walked back to her bed and sat down, staring at the red candle on the table in a daze.

The next morning, before dawn, Rong Zhenzhen got up, put on his clothes, and knocked on the door of A Ruan's room. Now that A Ruan is his righteous younger brother, he naturally doesn't have to help him get up like before, and Rong Zhenzhen is too lazy Find someone to be troublesome to follow like a little tail every day, and just wash up by yourself, and still have a salary left.

The door was opened soon, and Ah Ruan stood at the door, dressed neatly, with an excited expression on his face, "Brother Rong, shall we set off now?"

Rong Zhenzhen looked at his clothes up and down, shook his head and said: "No, it's windy on the mountain, and it's just the beginning of spring, and there will be a cold spring, this kind of clothes are not good."

After finishing speaking, he put his thick cloak on A Ruan without saying a word, and then took him out together, setting off before dawn, three people and three horses, all the way out of the city.

Although Lu Guanyun usually stays at home, he is a man in the Jianghu after all, and he still has a foundation in martial arts, and he can ride a horse with Rong Zhenzhen for an hour without panting.When the sky was bright, Rong Zhenzhen suggested to take a rest in the pavilion by the roadside and have breakfast together.

Lu Guanyun had no objection, A Ruan dismounted from his horse and quickly helped with his life. In view of Rong Zhenzhen's terrible cooking skills and Lu Guanyun's disability, he had no choice but to do it himself.

Randomly grabbed the rice and put it into the water to cook porridge, Ah Ruan put the pancakes brought out on the earthen pot to steam, the three of them gathered around the campfire to keep warm and talked, Rong Zhenzhen glanced at Lu Guanyun, who was dressed in white like an exiled fairy, and looked at Looking at A Ruan, who looked like a pink, tender and noble young master, he couldn't help sighing, "Why can't I be an attacker?"

"If I'm an attacker, how many readers will curse me, and I'll take two peerless sufferings at once."

Lu Guanyun and A Ruan looked up at him at the same time, they both looked at him with ignorance, one innocent and the other naive.

This is simply a large-scale show of cuteness, and Rong Zhenzhen once again regrets her attributes.

"Brother Rong, you always say things that we don't understand." Ah Ruan complained half-truthfully, "I don't always understand."

Rong Zhenzhen smiled, with a dry straw in his mouth, he looked like a hooligan, "You don't need to understand, knowing too much is not good for children's development."

Lu Guanyun has long been used to his inconspicuous appearance. He stared at the bonfire, and suddenly heard something moving in the grass behind him. As soon as he turned around, he saw a dozen strong men with big knives coming out. Surround them.

Rong Zhenzhen frowned, did he meet a bandit?

The head of the big man is 1.9 meters tall, with a wide nose and wide mouth, a big beard, and a protruding belly, as if he was five months pregnant. After turning his eyes around the three of them, he laughed and said viciously: "It's so cold, no wonder the three of you fell into my hands!"

"I planted this tree..."

"So what if you planted it?" Rong Zhen stretched his legs lazily, "How many years have passed and still can't change the word?",

The bandit leader was taken aback, probably because he had never seen such an arrogant fat sheep, he spat and cursed: "If I planted it, you have to pay me the toll!"

"No." Rong Zhenzhen said lightly, "What can you do?"

The bandit leader smiled covetously: "It's easy not to give, you take off the clothes on your body and give it to us, and leave the two beauties beside you by the way."

Lu Guanyun's expression didn't change, he continued to look at the bonfire calmly, but Ah Ruan's pretty face turned red with anger.

Rong Zhenzhen looked the bandit leader up and down, and smiled sinisterly: "Such an ugly appearance is also suitable for Xiao to miss my Xiaoyun and A Ruan? Why don't you miss Xiao and me?"

He wanted to ridicule the leader, but unexpectedly, the bandit leader had a pampering expression of "I can't do anything with you", and said with a sigh: "If you want to stay and be my wife, it's fine, even though you are tall. It’s a bit taller, but it’s barely passable, anyway, it’s the same with a quilt.”

Rong Zhenzhen: "..."

Ruan: "..."

Lu Guanyun: "I'm hungry."
