Jianghu is so big

Snow City is located at the northern end of the border of Dayu.

In the middle of winter, the heavy snow almost covers the whole city. Because of the harsh living environment, there are not many local people, and many buildings in the city are empty. Only in the midsummer will there be caravans for business. .

Zhu Yanyin sat in the warm carriage, holding the stove and looking out: "It turns out that there is quite an order here, which is different from what I thought."

Lan Xishan asked: "What kind of snow city do you think?"

Zhu Yanyin eloquently described that the demon sect committed crimes and killed innocent people indiscriminately. The people had to flee with their families in a hurry, leaving only an empty city. The doors and windows were mottled and peeled off by the wind. Burnt ruins, haunted at night.

Lanxi's beard curled up: "You also said that you didn't secretly read those miscellaneous books, hand them all over to me tonight!"

Zhu Yanyin: ...Sorry, I was careless.

Lan Xishan continued to educate his elder nephew: "Those who have time to write idle books are no serious people. They are nothing more than low-ranking talents. These people are full of resentment against the court, and the books only say that the devil is everywhere and wants to kill him." Kill anyone, are they using the government and the army as a display?"

Zhu Yanyin shrank back, and continued to speak stubbornly: "But the imperial court really didn't control the Demon Cult. The people from the rivers and lakes they killed, weren't they the people of Dayu?"

Lan Xishan didn't continue blowing his beard this time, he just took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and then maintained an expression of "what do you know, you little brat" and asked him: "If the court really doesn't want to take care of it?" ,How can the road of the Wulin League be unimpeded, with local officials taking care of it everywhere? If you say "management", you mean dispatching troops to the snowy field to encircle it, then it is true, but Dayu has had foreign troubles in recent years, and most of the troops Stationed in the northwest and coastal areas, the control of the northeast is already weak, if they are transferred to the south again, will the empty border be guarded by you or me?"

Zhu Yanyin: "Really?"

Lan Xishan said: "The actions of the Burning Fire Palace have already attracted the attention of the imperial court. This time, the various sects have gone north, and the official government has approached Wan League Master many times in advance. Since the imperial court allows the existence of the Wulin League, they must do it. It's a good job, it's not like you can call yourself a hero of the rivers and lakes just by hanging a sword in your waist and showing off your might."

Zhu Yanyin: "I'm not hanging up now."

"What you said just now is correct. The Jianghu people are also the people of Dayu, so the Wulin League that controls the Jianghu people is actually a part of the imperial court. Although these people don't receive salaries in public, as long as they can protect one side's stability and help others The people live in peace, and the local government will give them a lot of convenience. Everyone does their own things. If you want the imperial army to encircle and suppress the Burning Fire Temple, it is like asking the officials of the Ministry of Households to manage the water conservancy of the river. Although they can do it, but that What are you going to do with the Ministry of Industry?"

Zhu Yanyin said obediently: "I understand."

So my uncle is not a middle-aged man with a goatee who will only be fooled by his nephew, he is still very wise!

The leading team has already prepared their residences in advance. In order to prevent Chi Tian from breaking down one by one, everyone lives in the same area this time.Zhu Yanyin is still calmly mingling in the Wanren Palace—even though the wise uncle has traveled all the way to Syracuse, he still hasn't fully obtained the rebellious nephew.

It was a bit cold in the room, Zhu Yanyin curled up comfortably in Li Sui's arms, holding a topographic map of Burning Fire Palace in both hands to read.Li Sui had lived there for many years. He drew the first edition of the detailed map, and later published the second edition based on the revisions of the ancient Samanmai who did not know whether he was an ancient Samanmai or a dusty one.

The two maps are very different, it can be seen that Chi Tian has not been idle for so many years.

Zhu Yanyin was a little puzzled: "You have lived in Snow City for many years, why have you never been to the underground darkroom of Burning Fire Hall?"

Li Sui frowned: "Why should I go to the underground dark room?"

"Aren't you curious?"

"Not curious."

Zhu Yanyin: "..."

Zhu Yanyin said: "I found that you don't seem to be interested in anything."

Li Sui thought for a while: "Before I met you, it was true."

I am not interested in the environment I am in, I am not interested in other people's affairs, and I am not even interested in joy, anger, sorrow and joy. Apart from practicing martial arts every day, I just lean against the corridor with my sword in my arms, and listen to the sound of rain and snow with my eyes closed.

But now there have been some changes. At least he has begun to be interested in Jiangnan, as well as the Zhu Mansion where many relatives are said to be very enthusiastic, and the Lantern Festival Lantern Tour in Wangcheng.

Zhu Yanyin touched Li Sui's face and thought to herself, then you have lived too dull for more than 20 years.

Like a dark little pitiful.

Li Sui shook his wrist, and just about to kiss him, the shadow guard's voice came from outside the door.

"Palace Master, Head Pan has also rushed to the northeast."

Zhu Yanyin looked up to the sky and sighed, he really hated that little old man.

Li Sui squeezed his neck.

Zhu Yanyin immediately huddled into a ball: "Will he make any unreasonable demands on you again?" For example, "My precious son is really miserable and needs [-]% of your internal energy to save him."

"do not know."

"I don't know where to go, I'll go with you." Zhu Yanyin stood up, intending to see if the other party was still heartbroken and demented, and she didn't even want to do the superficial effort of caring about her eldest nephew. Opening her mouth was a magical request .

In the end, Pan Shihou was quite normal, at most he was tired after a long journey.

After Jiang Shenglin heard the news, he also rushed over. Firstly, it was his duty as a doctor. After all, he was the one who saved Pan Jinhua's life. Secondly, he was also like Zhu Yanyin, worried that Pan Shihou would go crazy again. Thirdly, He purposely changed into new clothes, made himself look like a dog, and was ready to meet the girl he had a crush on.

But the girl didn't come.

Doctor Jiang: "..."

Pan Shihou explained: "Jinhua's situation is not going to improve, and he caught wind and cold on the way, and almost died. I was really worried, so I asked Miss Lan to stay in Baitoucheng to take care of me for the time being."

Zhu Yanyin thought, your son is in such a critical situation, why do you still bring people to the Northeast, can't you just stay in Tianzhutang?

Of course, what he asked was not so direct, it sounded full of concern and tactful.

Pan Shihou replied: "If Chitian can be captured alive, maybe Jinhua can still be saved, I must come here."

Jiang Shenglin is the one who knows Pan Jinhua's injury best, and it won't heal overnight. Although a comatose person won't cause any trouble, he may die at any time. , then Pan Shihou must not remember to hate her for the rest of his life?

Jiang Shenglin regretted it very much. He regretted why he didn't tell her a few more words at the beginning, reminding her not to get involved in Pan Jinhua's affairs. That's good, no one came back.

Pan Shihou asked again: "Does the Wulin League have any plans?"

"Everyone has just arrived in Snow City. Later, Alliance Master Wan will discuss matters with the other leaders in the front hall." Zhu Yanyin said, "If Master Pan is interested, please come along with us."

Pan Shihou nodded, and then probed: "I see that there are quite a few troops outside..."

Zhu Yanyin: "They all protect me."

Pan Shihou obviously choked: "Yes."

We don't have deep ties to each other, so there's no need to chat too much. After finishing the superficial work, Li casually sent someone to send him back to his residence.And Jiang Shenglin was still leaning on the chair and sighing, alas, the time was still very long, until Li Sui finished speaking with the shadow guard, he still maintained the decadent posture of being abandoned by his sweetheart, his eyes were blurred.

Li Sui said concisely: "Disgusting."

Jiang Shenglin: "Do you still have a conscience?"

Zhu Yanyin comforted by the side, it doesn't matter, we will settle the battle quickly.

But the word "quick battle and quick decision" is easy to say, but it is really not easy to do.The first problem that the Martial Arts League is facing is that Chi Tian obviously has no intention of confronting it head-on at present, and there are snowy fields around the Burning Fire Hall, so I don't know what mechanism is hidden inside, and if you are not careful, your side will suffer.

Wan Zhuyun looked down: "Do you have any good suggestions?"

One person said: "I heard that the imperial court's army stationed in the northern border has several thundering cannons. I wonder if we can discuss borrowing them?"

After hearing the proposal, the other sects didn't say anything on the face, but murmured in their hearts.Borrowing money and rice is easy to say, but borrowing cannons, cannons, can they be borrowed casually?If they borrowed it and the news spread, and the enemy country in the north took the opportunity to attack, then who would bear the responsibility?

The person who suggested it may also know that this method is a bit impractical, and hastily added: "I just said it casually, I really can't think of other clever ideas, if you have any better ideas, please feel free to bring them up. "

The scene was completely silent, not because they didn't want to say it, but because everyone had already thought about it, but Chi Tian was like an old tortoise, there was nothing anyone could do if he couldn't get out.Go ahead, at worst, rely on your flesh and blood and kung fu to move forward, even if you are unlucky and die halfway, it can be regarded as paving the way for the people behind.

In the matter of defending the way and eliminating demons, the leaders are basically very chivalrous—although they usually intrigue and dislike each other a lot, but there is always one thing that can make everyone All united.

Someone asked loudly: "Senior brother Li, why do you keep peeking at Palace Master Li?"

Zhu Yanyin: "..."

Li Sui, who was leaning on the back of the chair, had been sipping tea carelessly without even raising his eyelids, but this was enough to make that unlucky "Senior Brother Li" secretly complain, and he hurriedly explained: "I didn't Look, I see what Palace Mistress Li is doing, my eyes have slanted lately."

Zhu Yanyin said again: "..."

Someone below couldn't hold it back, laughed "puchi", and quickly choked back.

Looking at Palace Master Li all the time, isn't it just to show his unfathomable kung fu, and hope that the opponent can take the lead, it is best to overturn all the organs with one palm, so that everyone can rush forward all the way.No one can guess this thought.But no one dared to say it, so they could only secretly hope that some fool who is not afraid of death would yell out.

In the choice between life and death, everyone in the Wulin League has a wonderful sense of contradiction. They are not afraid of death, for example, they can fight Chi Tian at any time, but they are very afraid of death. For example, until now, no one dared to look directly at The ultra-ruthless Palace Master Li still keeps hiding as far away as possible, which is very confusing.

Zhu Yanyin can also guess why everyone is watching Li Sui.

But he was not at all willing to let him charge up first, what kind of a damn scheme is this?Besides, even if he could overturn the mechanism with one palm, it would definitely consume a lot of physical strength, and what about Chi Tian later?Can you win this fight?

So in the silence, Second Young Master Zhu stood up bravely and said, "Maybe I have a way."
