The rivers and lakes are full of local tyrants

It's not what we thought, what else could it be!Shen Qianling's thoughts ran wildly, and his brain hole expanded infinitely.

Shen Qianfeng resisted the urge to pat his head.

"Otherwise we will discuss it tomorrow morning." Qin Shaoyu decisively pulled Shen Qianling to stand up, "There is no rush for this night."

"Sit down!" Ye Jin stood at the door of the bedroom with a murderous look.

Shen Xiaoshou's legs were weak, why did Duanduan roar, his sister-in-law was really fierce.

"Okay, okay, let's get down to business." Shen Qianfeng, one head and two big, "We actually finished investigating the sword casting room a long time ago, but we encountered some accidents on the way back, so we delayed until now."

"What accident?" Shen Qianling asked curiously.

Ye Jin proudly floated back to the bedroom.

Shen Qianling's embarrassing face, I was obviously asking a reasonable question.

Shen Qianfeng said, "While passing through the woods, we happened to meet two private servants. In order to avoid being discovered, we had to hide in a tree."

Qin Shaoyu: ...

Shen Qianling: ...

So in the middle of the night, his brother and his sister-in-law hid in a tree and watched the entire live version of the eighteen bans?

Although it's not his own wild co-op, it's just as awesome.

Shen Qianfeng was helpless, "What kind of eyes are you looking at?"

Qin Shaoyu coughed, "Okay, let's get down to business, what's wrong with the sword casting room?"

Shen Qianfeng roughly told him about his and Ye Jin's deduction.

"Swordsmith?" Qin Shaoyu rubbed his chin, "It's true, I've never heard Feng Yunlie mention these people."

"It's not easy for fifty or sixty people to hide." Shen Qianfeng said, "Even if they hide, they will definitely leave clues."

Qin Shaoyu was thoughtful, and opened the map drawn by the dark guard earlier, "Most of the Baijian Villa is a small courtyard. Our current courtyard is already the largest. I haven't found a place that can accommodate 60 to [-] people."

"That's even more unreasonable." Shen Qianfeng said, "According to the usual practice, people who do the same job should live together. Firstly, it's convenient to discuss together, and secondly, the routine of work and rest is the same. Unless they are married, they rarely disperse."

"Could it be a discord between the swordsmiths?" Shen Qianling guessed.

Shen Qianfeng shook his head, "The process of casting a sword is extremely complicated, and it cannot be completed by one person alone. Only by division of labor and cooperation can we forge the best sword. It is not okay to be unfamiliar with any link during the process, let alone conflicts with each other."

"In fact, although there are many courtyards in Baijian Villa, not all of them are inhabited." Qin Shaoyu clicked on the map, "Anything with a red dot on it is vacant, and the handymen live in the common room, so it is actually not Not hard to find."

"Send the secret guards to check first, who are the people living in these houses." Shen Qianfeng said, "It would be best if we can find the swordsmith, but I guess it is very likely that we can't find it, anyway, first find one As a result, we will discuss the next steps.”

Qin Shaoyu nodded, "That's exactly what I mean."

"Then it's settled." Shen Qianfeng said, "Starting tomorrow night, we will thoroughly investigate the villa again."

Shen Qianling yawned.

Qin Shaoyu laughed, "Sleepy?"

"Go back and rest first." Shen Qianfeng said, "It's getting late."

Shen Qianling nodded, originally wanted to say hello to his sister-in-law, but was taken away by Qin Shaoyu.

"Anyway, I have to say something." Shen Qianling protested.

"There is nothing to say." Qin Shaoyu closed the door, "He obviously took explosives tonight, so why bother to make fun of himself."

Shen Qianling said from the bottom of his heart, "The elder brother will definitely be miserable."

"Never mind him." Qin Shaoyu pinched his face, "You are not allowed to learn from Ye Jin."

"That's not necessarily true." Shen Xiaoshou groaned, "I may also let you sleep in the woodshed." Very cold.

Qin Shaoyu was amused, so he picked him up and threw him on the bed.

The two were laughing and making noise, the Shadow Chaser Palace's hidden guards were tutting on the roof, and my wife's voice was so soft.

The dark guard of Sun Moon Villa was lying on the opposite roof, staring at the starry sky with his face paralyzed.

The shadow chasing palace guard casually threw two jujubes over.

Sun Moon Villa Dark Guard: ...

The dark guards of the Shadow Chasing Palace had piercing eyes, ready to welcome their friends.

The dark guard of Sun Moon Villa continued to look at the starry sky.

Shadow Chasing Palace Dark Guard: ...

It was really disappointing that there was no violent rush.

From the second night onwards, the hidden guards of Sun Moon Villa began to search around the villa, trying to find the residence of the swordsmith.And the hidden guards of the Chasing Shadow Palace also began to walk down the mountain to drink tea and crack sunflower seeds. In a short period of time, they became friends with the people of Zitong Town, chatting and laughing. It was very lively, and successfully upgraded from the mascot of the rivers and lakes to the mascot of the folk, very lovable .Followed by this, the work efficiency is naturally very high. Before the hidden guards of Sun Moon Villa found any useful information, the hidden guards of Shadow Chasing Palace had already discovered many secrets hidden in Zitong Town.

"Don't be discouraged." As a caring little cotton trousers, Shadow Chasing Palace Dark Guard sincerely comforted his good friend, "We have always had great confidence in you."

The dark guard of Sun Moon Villa turned sternly and left the room.

"Let's go down the mountain to have dinner together tomorrow." The shadow chasing palace guard still stretched his neck and called out very enthusiastically.

The hidden guard of Sun Moon Villa really wanted to beat someone up.

"What did you find?" Qin Shaoyu asked.

"Here." The dark guard sent a large stack of papers with both hands.

"Wow, that's a lot." Shen Qianling was surprised.

"That's right." The dark guard puffed up his chest proudly, we are simply capable.

Qin Shaoyu turned two pages, then frowned and said, "The daughter-in-law of Tailor Wang is having an affair with Tailor Li, and you need to investigate this too?"

Shen Qianling choked on the tea.

The hidden guards were frightened, and they gathered together to have a look, then quickly took out another stack of papers from his arms, and quickly replaced the things in Qin Shaoyu's hands, innocently smiling brightly, "It's reversed, this is it. "

"Then what was that just now?" Shen Qianling asked.

The dark guard coughed, "I also heard it from the common people. In order to make a cliché, I have to talk everywhere. If I can't come up, I just go straight to the point."

"That's true." Shen Qianling nodded, but was still puzzled, "Then why do you have to write it down?"

Dark Guard:  …

"Say!" Qin Shaoyu's voice sharpened.

The palace lord is really fierce.The dark guard had no choice but to say, "In the future, I will find an opportunity to write a story and sell it to the bookstore owner."

Shen Qianling: ...

While carrying out the task, you still don't forget to get rich reasonably. You really deserve to come from the Palace of Chasing Shadows.

Qin Shaoyu flipped through the page in his hand, and then said, "Does someone go missing every year?"

"Yes." Speaking of this matter, the dark guard laughed, "It's been seven years in a row, and three or five adult men go missing every year."

"Is there a reporter?" Qin Shaoyu asked.

The dark guard shook his head, "It was reported, and the government did send people to investigate, but it was always thunderous and rainy, and the investigation disappeared after a while. The common people also organized teams to search for it in the mountains, and there was nothing wrong with it." As a result, I don’t know when, there was a rumor in the city that the men who disappeared were all dragged into the bottomless pool because they accidentally did something to bump into the river god.”

"Can you believe this?" Shen Qianling shook her head.

"Don't tell me, my lord, after the rumors came out, the family members of the disappeared men seemed to be able to find out the incident of colliding with the river god, so they all went to the temple to burn incense in fear, hoping that the family would have a better life. Don't suffer any more." Anwei said, "Zitong Town is not considered prosperous, but the River God Temple is extremely resplendent, presumably because of this reason."

"It's nothing more than a demon." Qin Shaoyu said, "The people in the water town, no matter they are working or chatting, are by the river. Washing dirt in the water is an offense to the river god, and speaking foul words by the river is also an offense to the river god. If you want to put it this way, Ling'er accidentally dropped a zong leaf into the river that day, which can also be said to be a collision with the river god. As long as you think hard, you can always find one or two things."

"It's a pity that it's been too long, and I can't find out where the source of the rumor is." Anwei said, "Otherwise, maybe we can find some clues."

"Leave these to me to read slowly." Qin Shaoyu put the paper in his hand on the table, "It's been hard these few days."

The dark guards all expressed that it was not hard work, and it was very refreshing to chat!

The little friends of Sun Moon Villa are the ones who work really hard, they come out at night and day, I can't help but want to embroider a pennant for them!

After dinner, Shen Qianfeng also finished reading the pile of news.

"What do you think?" Qin Shaoyu asked him.

"Nine times out of ten, it has something to do with Baijian Villa." Shen Qianfeng said, "Otherwise, some trafficker will kidnap young adults."

"I disappear in September and October every year." Qin Shaoyu said, "except this year."

"It's because we're here again?" Shen Qianfeng raised an eyebrow.

Qin Shaoyu nodded, "It should be."

"Will those men who disappeared be the puppets we saw that night?" Shen Qianling had a flash of inspiration in his head.

"I'm thinking too." Qin Shaoyu pinched his nose, "I have a good heart."

Shen Xiaoshou smiled.

Ye Jin was speechless, she could flirt when discussing serious matters, are you okay?

"The dark guards searched all night, but there is no news about the swordsmith or the puppet." Shen Qianfeng said, "Another way of thinking, it is possible that Feng Yunlie will arrest young men from the foot of the mountain every year in September and October. And then turned them into puppet swordsmiths, and this year because of our uninvited arrival, Feng Yunlie could no longer use puppets to forge swords, so he had to temporarily close the sword kiln, which attracted all the sects to come to demand."

"Why don't you try out Fengyunlie tomorrow?" Qin Shaoyu said, "Now we are guests at Baijian Villa, so there is nothing wrong with watching the swordsmithing technique."

"I'll go." Ye Jin said.

"Yeah." Shen Qianling nodded, his sister-in-law has been busy with long hair these days, except for wandering around and tossing hairballs, it's normal to want to have some fun.

"Master Feng." The voice of the hidden guard came from outside.

Shen Qianling quickly lay back on the bed.

Qin Shaoyu got up to open the door, and saw four servants walking in with a lot of boxes, and Feng Yunlie himself was holding a jar.

"What does the owner mean?" Qin Shaoyu asked.

"Mr. Shen is sick in bed, and I am very worried." Feng Yunlie said, "So I sent people to search for some tonics, so that you can recover soon."

Qin Shaoyu said, "The owner is really too polite."

"As long as it can make the young master get better soon, no matter how much money you spend, it's worth it." Feng Yunlie's words came from the bottom of his heart, he only wanted these people to leave quickly, even if he gave up half of his family's wealth, he would be willing.

"Thank you, Master Feng." Shen Qianling also leaned against the head of the bed and smiled weakly.

After Feng Yunlie pretended to be concerned, he took his leave.Ye Jin looked at all the medicinal materials at the table, then raised his eyebrows and said, "This is a profit."

"Huh?" Shen Qianfeng was puzzled.

"They are all the best health-care medicines, and you may not be able to buy them with money." Ye Jin opened the small jar, "Here is Qubingsan, which relieves most of the usual headaches and brain fever. If you take it once a day Spoon, the body will become much better."

Qin Shaoyu smiled and said, "Feng Yunlie is generous this time."

"There's nothing you can do if you don't want to be generous." Ye Jin put the lid on, "Every day we are here, he can't open the kiln to cast swords, and the orders are getting more and more owed. Now it's only three or five heads who are making trouble. When a dozen or twenty come together in the future, I'm afraid they won't be able to hide no matter how many secrets there are."

Shen Qianling lamented on the bed, discussing the necessity of timely delivery by Taobao shopkeepers.

"How do you plan to talk to him tomorrow?" Shen Qianfeng asked.

"It's a matter of course, you can just talk about it, and naturally you don't need to go around it." Ye Jin said, "It's like if someone goes to Qionghua Valley as a guest, it's normal to want to visit the medicine field, how can I refuse?"

Qin Shaoyu said with a smile, "The heads come to ask for the account one after another, and you still have to go to join in the fun, I'm afraid it will give him a headache tomorrow."

Shen Xiaoshou sighed with regret, it was a pity that he could not personally participate in this kind of action.

Just as Qin Shaoyu expected, at noon the next day, Feng Yunlie was sitting at the table drinking herbal tea to purify his fire after dismissing a master who came to ask for a sword, when he suddenly saw Ye Jin walking in with little Phoenix in his arms.

"Guzhu Ye." Feng Yunlie hurriedly stood up, "Do you need me?"

"Actually, it's not a big deal." Ye Jin smiled, "I'm free, I want to visit the sword-making room in the villa, I wonder if it's possible?"

Feng Yunlie froze for a moment when he heard the words, "Master Gu wants to see the sword casting?"

"That's right." Ye Jin rubbed the little phoenix, "Baijian Villa is famous all over the world for its sword casting skills. Since I'm here, I naturally want to take a look."

"Chirp!" Mao Qiu raised his head and also chirped at Feng Yunlie.

Feng Yunlie looked embarrassed, "I'm afraid this is inappropriate."

"Why?" Ye Jin was puzzled, "Are you afraid that I will learn the secret?"

"Of course not." Feng Yunlie hurriedly said, "Ye Guzhu is an upright person, how could he do such a disgraceful thing."

"Why is that?" Ye Jin broke the casserole and asked.

"Chirp." Little Phoenix also tilted his head to cooperate.

Feng Yunlie said, "This is the rule passed down from the ancestors. When casting swords, no one else is allowed to be present except my own family and the swordsmith. Please forgive me."

"So it is." Ye Jin was stunned.

"I'm really sorry." Feng Yunlie squeezed a cold sweat in his heart.

"Forget it then, I was too reckless." Ye Jin didn't bother much, and was about to go out with Little Phoenix in her arms.

"Chirp!" The fur ball was a little anxious, because it was just about to show Feng Yunlie its new skills when it was cruelly carried away!

"Gu Master Ye." Feng Yunlie called to stop him.

"Is there something wrong with the owner?" Ye Jin turned around.

"Chirp." The opportunity was lost, Maoqiu seized the time to get out of Ye Jin's arms, spread out its short wings and flew into the air, Little Heidou looked at Fengyunlie with piercing eyes!

"I would like to ask, how long will it take for Mr. Shen to recover?" Feng Yunlie probed.

"Chirp!" The fur ball fluttered its wings desperately, because it couldn't hold on any longer - why didn't it praise itself and touch it, it was really anxious.

"With the medicinal materials sent by Master Feng last night, it should be soon." Ye Jin said.

Feng Yunlie breathed a sigh of relief.

"Chirp!" The fur ball fell straight down.

Ye Jin reached out to catch it, and said, "It will be better in about a month or two."

Feng Yunlie almost vomited blood again, why did it take so long?

"But this kind of thing is not sure." Ye Jin continued, "Maybe it will be cured in three to five days, after all, heart disease is no different than others, and with Shaoyu taking good care of it, it is not impossible for Ling'er to recover overnight. "

"That would be the best." Feng Yunlie raised his heart in his throat, and his heart fell back a little.

"Does the owner have anything else to do?" Ye Jin asked.

"No more." Feng Yunlie shook his head, "There are still some things in the village that haven't been dealt with, and I can't accompany Guzhu around. Please forgive me, Guzhu Ye."

"The owner is too polite." Ye Jin poked the fur ball in the yard after saying goodbye to him.

"Chirp..." Furball buried his head in his wings, very shocked.

Ye Jin laughed and rubbed its round body.

"What result?" Shen Qianfeng asked after returning to his residence.

"It's expected." Ye Jin said, "Use the ancestral precepts to suppress me, saying that no outsiders should be present."

"I have an idea." Shen Qianling said suddenly.

"What?" Everyone looked at him.

"We definitely can't force Feng Yunlie to open kilns to make swords, but those sects who bought swords from Baijian Villa can." Shen Qianling said, "According to the news from the past few days, the business volume of Baijian Villa is not small. In addition to those who are overdue, there must be many who have received orders and collected money, but the delivery date has not yet arrived."

"That's right." Qin Shaoyu nodded, "When Chasing Shadow Palace ordered from Baijian Villa, it was nearly a year in advance, and all the money was paid in advance."

"Then we might as well release the news." Shen Qianling said, "It is said that there is a problem in Baijian Villa, and it is no longer possible to cast swords, and it will never be possible to open kilns again in the future, otherwise so many orders will not be delayed. Delivery. Once this news spreads in Jianghu, all sects who have ordered swords from Baijian Mountain Villa will definitely be anxious, and dozens of sects will come together to collect debts in a mighty manner, and it will be difficult for Feng Yunlie to give an explanation."

Qin Shaoyu pinched his face, "That's a good idea."

"You are becoming more and more alike." Shen Qianfeng also laughed, "No one except Chasing Shadow Palace could have come up with such an idea."

The dark guard is proud on the roof.

Yes, we are so quick-witted, sensitive and cool.

As always, never changed.

When it comes to the ability to spread rumors, if Shadow Chasing Palace ranks second, then no one can rank first.So that night, everyone turned on the lights and fought at night, and came up with a very touching, tortuous, complex and shocking story overnight.

The title can be summed up as "The century-old villa standing silently, though it has gone through wind and rain, but it is finally defeated by a beauty like a sword", which is very small and fresh.

In the small teahouse at the foot of the mountain, a few young disciples who had just entered the rivers and lakes were eating melon seeds. Suddenly, they heard the people nearby discussing the gossip about Baijian Villa, so they hurriedly dragged their chairs over.

"It is said that Master Feng's concubine colluded with the swordsmith in an attempt to annex the family property but was discovered by Master Feng, so he died and destroyed the entire sword casting kiln with explosives."

"Yes." Citizen B also sighed, "It's just a pity that those kilns for casting swords may never be rebuilt again."

"I've heard about it too." Commoner Bing said, "Those sword casting kilns were designed by the ancestors of the Sword Villa with exhaustive efforts. If it is blown up, I am afraid that Sword Forging Villa will no longer be able to forge swords in the future."

The people around are also very sad. After all, Feng Yunlie's popularity in Bronze Town is not bad. Not only does he donate porridge every year, but he also funds the construction of the River Temple. , Naturally, there is some sympathy.

The people on this side were just sighing and sympathizing, but the rivers and lakes on the other side had already exploded.

Sword Worship Villa is a famous swordsmith, so the price of swords is extremely high, one is almost enough to buy eight or nine carts in an ordinary blacksmith shop.But even so, the sects of the rivers and lakes are still flocking to it, and they are all proud of owning the sword of Zhujian Villa.Firstly, it is because the quality is really good, and the material is excellent; secondly, it is for showing off, and it feels very decent to hold one in your hand!As Shen Xiaoshou said, the scabbard pattern of Baijian Villa is basically equivalent to the big LOGO of Hermès in modern society.

In order to own Hermès in the sword, all the schools of the Jianghu, big or small, rich or poor, have to buy it even if they are saving money and food, and they only want to get it as soon as possible.So one can imagine how shocked everyone was when they heard that Jianjian Villa could no longer cast swords—it was like a girl who had waited for Hermes for a year with a girlish heart, but was suddenly told that the mall had closed down and the boss rolled her eyes. Running away with the money and sister-in-law, Hermes is gone, the lethality is overwhelming, okay?

Very cruel.

"If Feng Yunlie doesn't give an explanation, I'm afraid this place will become more lively than the martial arts conference." In Baijian Villa, Qin Shaoyu was holding a bowl of sugar water, and while feeding it to Shen Qianling, he ate it himself.

Shen Xiaoshou swallowed the taro with a smile, this is the power of the buyer!

"Guess what will happen to Feng Yunlie next?" Qin Shaoyu asked him.

"Whatever he will do." Shen Qianling held a bowl of water and drank sugar water, "What he is facing now is not us, but all the sects in the entire Jianghu. If he makes a mistake, it may really shake the century-old foundation of the villa."

Qin Shaoyu leaned over and kissed his lips, "My Ling'er is so smart."

Shen Xiaoshou said inflatedly, "A few more compliments."

Qin Shaoyu thought for a while, "The waist is soft, and it sounds nice too."

Shen Qianling: ...

You young man is really hopeless.
