6. Homecoming on a Snowy Night(1/2)
It's not winter, but heavy snowfall, this is a natural phenomenon.
Often at this time, various superstitious sayings will come one after another among the people. By the early morning of the next day, the entire Luoyang City was already covered in snow and covered in silver.
Rumors spread in the city, saying that this was a huge injustice, which made God open his eyes.
Some people also said that the Heluo hero Chen Qiu suffered a strange injustice, which made the Central Plains fall heavily in the late October autumn.
The rumors are vivid and colorful.
In this era, people did not have much entertainment, and spreading some gossip news became the only pastime.
In addition, Chen Qiu had a great reputation in this city. In less than half a day, the rumors spread throughout the city. The notice posted by Yinlou on the whole city was also torn down by all the Beggars' sects.
The saying of evil demons who were surging in the outside world was spreading. In this city, it was like a stone falling into the water, splashing a ripple and no more movement.
No matter what status you have in the world, the people will favor whoever protects them.
When the Northern Invaders attacked the city, they didn’t see you coming out of the Yinlou to save the people in this city?
As for whom the so-called "strange injustice touches the sky", those who are a little sensible can guess it.
Hey, Hero Chen Qiu, he really married a good wife.
It is both beautiful and has strong financial resources. It is rare to be smart and has a strong mind. It really has the style of a general. Well, the only disadvantage is that it is probably older.
In this era, Yaoqin is already an old girl who is 20 years old.
"Xuanyu used Gu to pry open the Chehua Thief's mouth."
In the Lei Mansion, Qingqing sat next to Yaoqin, holding Yaoqin's hand, looking scared.
Yaoqin doesn't care. She didn't hurt the sword last night. There is nothing to be afraid of with a master like Yang Fu protecting him in the mansion.
She patted Qingqing's hands and asked:
"Have you asked? What exactly does he want to do?"
"Sister, you look up to that guy."
Qingqing curled her lips and said disdainfully:
"There is no conspiracy, and that guy didn't even expect to throw dirty water on his senior brother with his life.
He heard about Shiyin at Xiaoxiang Jianmen and knew that with the Holy Fire Sect, the Thousand-year Holy Fire will not be extinguished, and his original hope will be shattered.
He knew that martial arts were not good. At the Xiaoxiang Jianmen, Lin Wandong took Lin Huiyin back and settled in seclusion. He wanted to learn advanced martial arts, but he had to take revenge by himself, and even waited until the year of the Monkey and Horse Month.
In despair, he went to the extreme.”
The junior sister looked at Yaoqin and said:
"His idea was very simple. Since the Holy Fire Sect had a saint, it had a heritage. However, as a saint, Shi Yin needed a pure body and could not marry.
The next saint woman of the Holy Fire Sect must be the only one who can choose to be the child of her sister and her senior brother.
He wanted to assassinate his sister to cut off the inheritance of the Holy Fire Sect."
"Um."
Yaoqin nodded.
Che Hua's idea was extreme, but for someone like him who was deeply resentful of blood and was unable to take revenge on Yang Tao, it was indeed the only way he could take at the moment.
But Yaoqin closed her eyes and thought for a moment, then said:
"Although you all know about the inheritance of the Saint Maiden, it is also a secret in the outside world. With the level of Che Hua, it is difficult to know so clearly. I think someone told him this.
Is it the Zhang Chu who fanned the flames everywhere? He has a deep hatred with your senior brother, so it is not surprising that he does such a thing."
"Not Zhang Chu."
Qingqing shook her head and said hatefully:
"It was Yinlou who told Che Hua that the senior brother destroyed the branch of Yinlou in Xiangyang a few days ago, but someone went out and escaped, so he told Che Hua about this.
The indifferent Qing ran over and ran to assassinate him alone without thinking about it.
Xuanyu asked him with a Gu, but he couldn't resist it, so he said everything, his man was very weak!"
Qingqing said:
"I had made up my mind to sacrifice my life to assassinate my sister, but I couldn't get through the hurdle in my heart. I felt that I was incompetent and had to sacrifice my sister's innocence to do it.
So I was so confused that I stabbed the sword last night, and then closed my eyes and waited to die.
What a waste!"
The junior sister curled her lips and said:
“Just as my senior brother said before.
If this person cannot solve the problem, he will solve himself and leave the mess to others.
He didn't even think about it. If he really succeeded in assassination, with his senior brother's current temperament, he was afraid that the Xiaoxiang Jianmen would repeat the tragic disaster that Zhang Moye slaughtered the whole family back then.
Lin Wandong thought of his bumpy life experience and gave him a path. Not only did he not be grateful, he also had to do such a brainless thing, and he would die if he died, and he would also implicate his benefactor.
Such a wise man is a broom star!
Wherever you go, you can go in trouble, just kill it with one knife to avoid disaster.”
Yaoqin did not answer.
After a few breaths, she spoke:
"Wait until my husband comes back, although Che Hua is a pawn.
But it is also the righteous young hero. At the hero meeting, everyone knows about him. He just died in Luoyang in a confused manner. The stigma of your senior brother will not be cleaned."
"Talk about senior brother."
Qingqing nodded, she whistled a long whistle, and the wind among her two crested eagles flapped her wings and landed on the window.
The junior sister whispered to Yaoqin:
"The senior brother may be back tonight, and he walked secretly all the way. He wrote to him that he was here to pick us up and said that he was going to Shaoxing, and he didn't know what to look for."
"Shaoxing?"
Yaoqin's eyes narrowed, looking at Qingqing who knew nothing.
She held Qingqing's hand tightly.
Isn’t it Tao Zhushan in Shaoxing?
Husband wants to tell Qingqing about his life experience?
It seems that the incident in Jinling is indeed related to Qingqing-
Shen Qiu said he would go back to Luoyang tonight, but in the afternoon, Li Yijian and Heluo helpers returned to Luoyang City first.
There were many people going to greet the pier.
After the battle in Luoyang, the people in Luoyang City had formed an endless hatred with the people of the Northern Dynasties. Now the heroes of the Heluo Gang returned from Jinling and killed the northern enemy and were abandoned. They were indeed the great heroes of Luoyang City.
Li Yijian never expected that when he came back, there would be so many people coming to greet him, and the elderly who had lost their relatives would send them with tears on their faces.
The Heluo Gang also felt emotional.
This battle was indeed as Lei Shiyin Dalongtou said.
As long as you win, you can win the hearts of Luoyang. It may take some time for the Heluo Gang to become famous in other places, but at least in the Central Plains region, after these two battles, it has become a first-class wealthy family in the martial arts world.
Unfortunately, Li Yijian felt very uncomfortable while drinking the mellow gummy wine.
This trip, the righteous path really won.
But my elder brother, and his poetry sound,
well.
The group entered the city surrounded by the crowd and helped the crowd go home. Li Yijian took his brothers to Lei Mansion. Everyone in Lei Mansion knew about Lei Shiyin, so he didn't need to explain too much.
Manager Zhao even set off his clothes and handed over the land deed of Lei Mansion to Li Yijian for safekeeping. After handing over the affairs of the gang, he took more than a dozen Lei Mansion confidants out of Luoyang and headed to the Holy Volcano of the Western Regions.
"Lei Ye, Master Lang Monk."
In the front yard of Lei Mansion, in the main hall, all the senior executives of the Heluo Gang were here, and seven elders, including Lang Mutou, Yaoqin and Mr. Li, also attended the event.
In full view of everyone, Li Yijian was wearing incense and candles, looking guilty.
He said to the two tablets:
"We are disappointed to both of you, unable to protect Miss Shiyin, nor Brother Chen Qiu, and let him be slandered by a traitor, and have to rebel from the right path. We are incompetent."
Li Yijian inserted the incense candle in his hand into the incense burner.
He turned around, took out the seal of the Heluo Gang's big dragon head from his sleeve, placed it on the table, and bowed to the seven elders.
He said:
"Brother Chen Qiu promised me to be the leader of the Heluo Gang, but Li knew very well that Li could not convince the public, whether in terms of martial arts or reputation, and did not dare to occupy the position of this leader.
I will put the seal here today!”
