Tanhualu

Because one person and one horse did not have the burden of luggage, and the non-stop rush, Yang Jin arrived at Chongjiazhuang before He Pu and his party.

Fortunately, Chongjia Village is very close to Hanshi Villa, they are both on the outskirts of Xiangning City, but the directions are different.Yang Jin has been familiar with this land for a long time, and he is much more familiar with it than newcomers.

In Chongjiazhuang, Chonghu is the most powerful Wanghu, and more than one-third of the property here belongs to him.The villagers who work and cultivate land for the Chong family account for a large proportion of the population here. Therefore, in the eyes of these ordinary villagers, Chonghu seems to be the most famous family in the local area, and it is also a shelter that guarantees them a safe life.

Yang Jin entered the village, observed and inquired secretly, and found that there were indeed many foreigners living here, and all of them were martial arts practitioners.It is said that "Master Chong's home is holding the Heroes of the World Conference", and all the masters of the rivers and lakes from all over the world are gathered here at this moment.

Naturally, these words are somewhat exaggerated. Yang Jin is not an ignorant young man. She knows very well that if she wants to hold a real "Heroes of the World Conference", she may not be able to make preparations without three or two months of preparation.

But since there are so many martial arts practitioners gathered in the village, it is inevitable that there are several well-known masters in Chonghu's family.

She quietly inquired in the village, looking for an opportunity to sneak into the Chong family.

Yang Jin is not interested in who Chonghu invited, she just wants to know: Is Shi Han here safely.

Now there is no panic in Chongjiazhuang, which means that nothing serious has happened to Chonghu, and it also means that He Pu and his party are really left behind by him.

In this way, there is room.

Yang Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but then worried about another thing: how to get into the Chong family?

She didn't want to show her identity so loudly and walk in.No matter what kind of identity it appears in, it is not appropriate at this time.

Only by hiding in the dark can he find a chance to destroy He Pu's plan.

Destroy his plan, then what?

Once things go wrong and He Pu falls short, will he be killed by those people?Will he be brought to justice by the court?

Yang Jin couldn't think about the possible outcome, after all, He Pu was not a passerby to her...

That's it!

Yang Jin bit his lip bitterly, shaking off the chaotic contradictions in his mind——

Isn't such a bad result caused by his own evil deeds?He is self-inflicted and determined to go his own way, so who can save him?

Once Yang Jin made up his mind, he no longer hesitated.She hid in the village, anxiously looking for an opportunity to sneak into the Chong family.

The Chong family occupies a large area, has many rooms, and even more servants, but it is truly unprecedented to receive so many guests at the same time.

In the past few days, the housekeeper of the Chong family has become two big——

It is necessary to arrange the food and lodging of the guests, and arrange them properly.It should be noted that these people, whether they are Buddhist disciples from Songshan Mountain, or young heroes from Tangmen, or from Qingcheng Mountain, or Jiange, no matter which family or faction are heroes, they are all people in the world with extraordinary skills.

These people are not only strong in martial arts, but also have a violent temper, and they are more accustomed to speaking with fists and weapons.People are floating in the rivers and lakes, who doesn't have one or two enemies?

Now that they all live in the Chong family, if the owner of the villa and the representatives of their families did not succeed in the major event of collusion, and there was a conflict inside, or even an injury, then it would not be a trivial matter to hurt the peace. will affect the overall situation.

Therefore, the butler of the Chong family deeply felt that in order to satisfy every guest these days, he almost added a few more gray hairs.What worries him the most is that the manpower in the village is obviously not enough.There were already few proper servants serving tea, water, and food, and more than a dozen were borrowed to be responsible for the reception of carriages and horses in the front and back yards.It is often that the tea and snacks requested by the guests cannot be delivered in time. Aren't these attendants and disciples all self-restraint and magnanimity like their elders, and when they are not eating well, they can blow their beards and stare, almost calling their parents scolding their mothers.

After two days like this, the housekeeper of the Chong family was exhausted physically and mentally. He couldn't take it any longer, so he quietly asked Chong Hu for instructions, asking if he could temporarily recruit some helpers outside, and not let them serve near the guests, but only in the courtyard. Responsible for rough work such as sweeping, feeding horses, and unloading luggage.

Chonghu was also aware of the manpower situation in the village, and he really didn't want to affect the relationship between each other because of poor service to the guests of each family, so as to affect the cooperation with each other, so he had to agree.

He repeatedly told the steward to "never allow new recruits to approach the inner courtyard".Now that the village is full of mixed people, there is no guarantee that some unscrupulous workers will be recruited with such a big fanfare.If it's just thieves, it's fine, at most some utensils and money will be lost; if a spy is recruited, it will be terrible.

Only then did the housekeeper feel a little more relaxed, and he fully agreed to go to recruit workers.

It was because of such an opportunity that Yang Jin joined the Chong family, and was arranged in the front yard with a few younger generations, responsible for feeding the visitors' horses and loading and unloading luggage.

Although the steward who arranged for them to work made repeated orders with a fierce face, "the scope of activities must not exceed the front yard, and they must not sneak around", Yang Jin didn't take these things to heart.She is confident that it will not be a problem to deceive these people with her lightness kung fu.Just be on guard, the guards of the Chong family and all martial arts masters will do.

It was Yinshi, there was just a glimmer of light in the sky, and the sun was still hidden in the mountain depression, and it would take another half an hour to jump out. The servants and helpers in the front and back yards of the Chong family got busy.

Yang Jin is naturally among them.She and a few companions fed the more than twenty horses in the stable, and then they were called away by the steward to unload the luggage of the guests who had just arrived.

After working for a long time, when I stopped to rest, it was already past time.

In rare free time, several helpers gathered together and sat down to chat and rest.

Because the housekeeper of Chong's family is very strict about the recruited helpers, most of Yang Jin's companions are honest and responsible peasants, and most of them sit together to chat about the new things they have seen in the past few days.

Yang Jin pretended to look for water and stayed away from the crowd.

The secret thing she wants to do, the farther away from the crowd, the easier it is to act.

Yang Jin pretended to be looking for drinking water, and made a general overview of the situation near the stables in the backyard, with a little idea in mind.

If you want to act, you have to be at night.Moreover, she had to find a chance to find out if the people from Cold Stone Villa had also come.

Thinking in her mind, she turned back, noticing that a tall and thin figure in the distance just saw her silhouette.The man faltered and hid behind a carriage.

He secretly looked at Yang Jin from a distance, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar he looked.Under the morning light, the veins on his forehead twitched "boom boom boom", and two lines of hatred shot out from his eyes.

Until Yang Jin's figure disappeared, the man couldn't stand it anymore, and flew straight to the meeting hall.

Since the heroes of the various families moved into the Chong family, they woke up at [-]:[-] pm every day, and at [-]:[-] pm in the afternoon, in the discussion hall of the Chong family, led by Chong Hu, the leaders of each family had to discuss important matters together.

Today is no exception.Just after the hour, Chong Hu, Shi Han, Fa Xiang, and a few young juniors came to the hall, each of them sat down in front of the ceremony, and only waited for everyone to gather, and then began to discuss matters.

Shi Han sat on Chonghu's lower head, feeling a bit out of his mind——

Yesterday, she received news from Hongyu: Yang Jin disappeared ten days ago.

The news was delivered to Chongjiazhuang by express horses from Beijing Central Hospital.

This means that Hongyu must have tried everything she could think of to find Yang Jin, but to no avail. She couldn't bear it anymore, so she had to pass the news to Shi Han.

Shi Han's first reaction when he saw this letter was: Jin'er has come to find him!

But, how did Jin'er know where she came from?She clearly promised herself...

Therefore, it must be that something unpredictable happened during the period when I left the capital.

However, Hongyu mentioned in the letter that when someone saw He Nishang appearing in the other courtyard, Shi Han understood, and immediately after that, his mind relaxed——

If He Nishang lured Jin'er to He Pu's place, Jin'er would be safe.

It's too late for He Pu to protect Jin'er, how could he harm her?

No matter what, as long as Jin'er is safe.

Shi Han thought so, but when she thought that Chonghu had already sent an invitation card to Jiansu Villa, her heart could not be at ease again.

No matter what the purpose is, He Pu must come to Chongjiazhuang.So what about Jiner?How will she be placed?Where is she now?

Shi Han barely closed her eyes last night, filled with anxiety and worry.She has already ordered everyone in the Hanshi Villa to spread out to find Yang Jin's whereabouts, and she also knew Luo Muping, who was sent by Yu Wentang to protect her, and asked him to tell Yu Wentang, so that Yu Wentang could help him.

At this moment, Shi Han's eyes were full of tiredness, but her mind couldn't stop, she only felt her heart beating violently "chug-chug".Maybe it's because I didn't sleep well last night that I feel unwell?But Shi Han always had a very bad premonition, as if something terrible was about to happen.

Chonghu works for Yuwentang and is loyal to Yuwenshi, she knows that.Since he is loyal to the Yuwen clan and Jin'er is also surnamed Yuwen, Jin'er's safety should be his concern, right?

If getting rid of He Pu is Chonghu's ultimate goal, then if he finds out about Jin'er's disappearance, will he devote his energy and manpower to help find Jin'er's whereabouts?

Shi Han couldn't be sure either.After all, Chonghu used to be an old man of Prince Yi's mansion, and King Yi Yuwenda died in the past because of...

After thinking about it again and again, Shi Han decided to inform Chonghu of Yang Jin's disappearance.

Whether she can get rid of He Pu is not what she cares about the most, what she cares about the most is only Yang Jin, only Yang Jin.

With one more capable person to help, Jin'er will be more secure.

While Shi Han was thinking like this, all the heroes in the conference hall had almost arrived, and they all took their places.

At this time, a tall and thin young man came in from the door, quickly moved behind Meng Yuechan who was sitting on the chair at the end, and lay beside her ear, muttering something.

Meng Yuechan listened intently, her face suddenly changed, her phoenix eyes turned fierce, and she was about to burst into flames.

She slid past all the seniors present here, pondered for a while, and already had some concerns in her heart, and whispered a few words to the tall and thin young man.

The young man obediently agreed, and left quickly.

Meng Yuechan stood up, clasped her fists and bowed to everyone present: "Seniors, just now my Junior Brother Ding came to inform me that a person who had secretly learned my Xuanyuan sect's exercises and stole my sect's property was found in the village. The thief..."

When she said this, everyone present was surprised.

Shi Han's eyebrows twitched, and he pursed his lips tightly.

Chonghu's reaction was even bigger, after all he is the proprietor, if there is such a villain in his village, where will his old face be put?

"Niece Yuechan, do you mean that this person has infiltrated the old man's village at this moment?" He used "infiltrate" to somewhat excuse himself.

Meng Yuechan didn't answer directly, but said loudly again: "Uncle Chong, this thief is in the front yard of your house right now."

"Is there such a thing?" Chonghu raised his eyebrows, as if to express his disbelief, but he wondered in his heart, could it be that something went wrong when the housekeeper recruited helpers?

But Meng Yuechan didn't want to be confused by him, clasped her fists and said loudly: "Seniors, this junior came here on behalf of the master. Since this person did something unrighteous to my Xuanyuan sect back then, the junior At this moment, I have the right to deal with it on behalf of Master..."

As she spoke, she changed the subject and said: "To be honest, seniors, although this junior has joined the master's school since childhood and is a senior disciple, his experience is still inexperienced. Don't be afraid of the jokes from everyone, this thief was not inferior to the juniors in martial arts back then. , I don’t know where I learned the evil kung fu, it’s as powerful and crazy as Shura’s possession. This junior thinks that he is not her opponent, and he is afraid that she will escape and feel ashamed of his master. I also ask all the seniors to help the junior to catch this villain. Get rid of one evil in the rivers and lakes!"

As Meng Yuechan said, she bowed to the ground, waiting for everyone's reply, as if she would not get up straight if she didn't agree.

Everyone in the audience listened to what she said, especially when they heard her description of the "thief" whose martial arts were "as crazy as a Shura possessed", their expressions were all shocked, and they all turned to look at Chonghu who was sitting in the middle, and who was sitting in the middle. The Faxiang beside Chonghu——

How similar is this man's martial arts to that of the "scum of the rivers and lakes" that the two of them described to them that day!

Could it be that scum's accomplice?

Chong Hu and Fa Xiang were also surprised, they looked at each other, and they both saw four words in each other's eyes: How is it possible!

As for Shi Han, after hearing Meng Yuechan's words, her face turned pale and her lips were bloodless. She already knew who Meng Yuechan was talking about!

She couldn't sit still any longer—

If this continues, Jin'er will be killed by them!

Just at this moment, outside the door, the butler of the Chong family hurried in, with a solemn expression, saluted Chong Hu: "Villa Master, He Puhe from Sushan Villa has arrived!"

Everyone was shocked.
