A knife in love

Chapter 984

When Li Qiufeng heard old master Nie mentioning Yun Feiyang, he was startled, and thought to himself that old master Nie actually knew Yun Feiyang, it seems that his official position in the capital is not fake.This person is familiar with the officialdom in the capital, so I have to be careful in dealing with it, so as not to be seen by him.So he pondered for a while, and then said: "To be honest, Mr. Yun unfortunately died in the line of duty because he was away on business a few months ago."

Old Mrs. Nie's complexion changed, and he said "oh", and after thinking for a moment, he sighed and said, "It's really unpredictable. It's really sad that such a great person as Mr. Yun has been murdered." .”

Li Qiufeng said: "That's right. Master Yun has great martial arts skills and great wisdom. We all admire him very much. Right now, Master Xu Yingyang is in charge of the investigation of Beisi. He is personally in charge of martial arts training. The county seat, it can be seen that the imperial court is extremely concerned about this matter."

Old Mrs. Nie narrowed his eyes, and said in his mouth: "This is the best. With the help of Jin Yiwei, our chances of winning are much higher. Without further ado, please Master Li to contact Master Xu as soon as possible, and be sure to ask Master Xu before the day after tomorrow." Get ready in town."

Li Qiufeng thought to himself, where can I find Xu Yingyang now?But at this time, you must not tell Mrs. Nie about this matter.Otherwise, this old guy might come up with some harmful tricks to deal with him.If he knew that he was on the order, and knew so many secrets, he might be the first one to kill him.So Li Qiufeng nodded and said, "In that case, I'll go out of the city overnight to meet Mr. Xu."

What Old Master Nie wanted was Li Qiufeng's words.Seeing his promise, Mrs. Nie immediately stood up and said, "Then there will be Mr. Lao Li. After this matter is completed, Mr. Li will be the great benefactor of our Nie family. As long as Mr. Li says a word, our Nie will Everyone obeys."

Li Qiufeng heard that Mrs. Nie only mentioned the Nie family, but not the Lu, Zhao, and Du families. He thought to himself, it seems that this old guy is determined to get rid of the Lu, Zhao, and Du families with the help of Japanese pirates, and then Use the government to destroy the Japanese pirates.Since I promised him to go find Xu Yingyang, even though I don't know where Xu Yingyang took Jin Yiwei to now, I still have to pretend to go out for a walk.Thinking of this, he also stood up and said to Mrs. Nie: "Then I will go to see Mr. Xu first. If there is anything else, I will talk about it when I come back."

The two left the house together.At this time, it was dark outside the house, but the sky above the front yard was brightly illuminated by the lanterns.After locking the door, Li Qiufeng bid farewell to Mrs. Nie and left the backyard by himself.But I saw that the front yard was empty, but the lanterns everywhere were lit, which looked very strange.

Li Qiufeng was thinking about where to go as he walked forward. Seeing that he was about to reach the stone steps of the gate, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him.He only thought that Mrs. Nie sent someone to follow him, and suddenly turned around, but saw a person following him from a distance, it turned out to be Miao Zhu.

Seeing Miao Zhu's frightened face, Li Qiufeng didn't know what happened again, before he came to him, he asked, "Brother, did something happen?"

Miao Zhu ran in front of Li Qiufeng and said in a trembling voice: "I just heard what the old man said, how dare the villain live in the backyard, so I carried the quilt into the main hall and stayed for a few nights. After the Lantern Festival, the backyard Those plague gods left, and the villain moved back to the backyard. It’s just that the villain had something on his mind, and couldn’t sleep all the time. He sat in a daze at the entrance of the main hall. Are you going to go out?"

Li Qiufeng said: "I went out to do some things, but I made my brother worry."

Miao Zhu sighed, and said: "This year's things are really weird, and the villain is always in a bad mood. The city is not very peaceful now, so you must be careful when you go out so late."

Miao Zhu kept sending Li Qiufeng out of the temple gate, and then closed the gate and went back.Standing at the gate of the temple, Li Qiufeng saw that the crowd in the open space in front of him had disappeared.The surrounding lanterns were still lit, swaying in the cold wind.

Li Qiufeng thought to himself, Mrs. Nie is an old fox, since he asked him to find Xu Yingyang, maybe he would send someone to follow behind quietly.I have to go around first to see if there is anyone behind, and then go around outside the city to deal with this matter.Now Zhang Hao disappeared, and he lost contact with Jin Yiwei.However, with Xu Yingyang's wisdom, he would never wait outside the city for news, and would definitely send another man into the city to inquire.If there are swordsmen in the city, Jin Yiwei will naturally come to investigate, so I don't have to worry that Jin Yiwei will stand by and watch.The most important thing right now is whether the major sects will return as scheduled.Without the help of martial arts gangs such as Huashan, Kunlun, Emei, Qingcheng, etc., it would be tantamount to a dream to deal with Japanese pirates.

He made up his mind, first walked west along the main street in front of the Town God's Temple, then turned to the north of the city, made a big circle, and then turned to the south of the city.Along the way, he peeked behind him from time to time, but he didn't find anyone following him.Li Qiufeng thought to himself that Mrs. Nie was really a remarkable person, and everything was unexpected.If I want to deal with this old guy, I'm afraid I won't be his opponent.

When he arrived at the south gate, the city gate had already been locked.Li Qiufeng found a place where no one was around, and used his lightness kung fu to climb up the city wall.I saw a false flag on the city wall, and several soldiers guarding the city were standing or standing, and they were all asleep.Li Qiufeng took the opportunity to climb over the city wall and arrived outside the south gate.It was midnight at this time, the sky was full of stars, and the surrounding wind was cold and windy, but there was no one in sight.Li Qiufeng walked south along the official road, thinking about how to deal with the Japanese pirates while walking.But after much deliberation, he could only come up with the words "responsiveness". If he wanted to come up with a good plan to deal with the pirates, he knew that it would be completely impossible.Perhaps only Mrs. Nie is confident at this time, and he is determined to lure the Japanese pirates into the city, and let the Japanese pirates massacre the children of Lu, Zhao, and Du who live in the north of the city and in the Chenghuang Temple, while the Nie family watches from the sidelines.After the Japanese pirates succeeded, the Nie family came forward to clean up the mess.

Li Qiufeng walked along the official road for more than a mile, and when he was about to turn around and go back to the city, he stopped suddenly.

He already felt that someone was approaching him, and the distance between the two was no more than twenty feet.

This place is a wilderness, only five or six dead trees on the side of the road not far behind him are shaking in the cold wind.

Li Qiufeng turned around slowly, and said to the five or six dead trees, "Since your Excellency has arrived, why don't you show up and meet?"

Just as Li Qiufeng finished speaking, under the twilight of the stars, he saw a figure flickering behind a big tree, and one person, Shi Shiran, walked out and walked three feet in front of Li Qiufeng, and then stopped. , said in the mouth: "Brother Li invites you."

Li Qiufeng looked intently. This man was dressed in black and held a black sheathed sword in his right hand. It was Yu Fan, the magistrate of Xiuwu County.

Seeing Yu Fan's arrival, Li Qiufeng was taken aback, and then thought to himself, Mei Dali made a big fuss, saying that he would keep an eye on Yu Fan.But when Yu Fan appeared in front of him, Mei Dali and his apprentices didn't know where they went.These rascals in the market, if they want to get things done, it is impossible to even think about it.

Seeing that Li Qiufeng didn't answer, Yu Fan only said that he was on guard that he had other plans.So he stabbed the long sword into the ground with his right hand, then raised his hands high, and said: "Brother Li, Yu has no malicious intentions, please don't be offended by Brother Li."

Li Qiufeng snorted, and said, "It turned out to be Mr. Yu. I didn't expect you to go for a drive outside the city with Li at such a late hour. It's really fun."

Hearing Li Qiufeng's sarcasm, Yu Fan wasn't angry. He took a few steps forward and said, "Yu knows that Brother Li looks down on me and thinks I'm a lackey of Japanese pirates. This matter is complicated, you Blame me and hate me, but it's human nature, I don't blame you."

Li Qiufeng sneered, and said: "Master Yu's words are so unreasonable. Are you a lackey of the Japanese pirates? What do you have to do with me? Why should I blame you for hating you?!"

Yu Fan said: "In fact, when I met Brother Li for the first time outside Luoyang City, Yu admired Brother Li's martial arts as a man, and wanted to make friends with Brother Li. Afterwards, he went all the way from Luoyang to Xiuwu County, and many things happened on the way. Brothers say and do things, everything that Yu Mou admires. Yu Mou has been in the world for decades, and he has never seen a few young and promising heroes like Brother Li. If it weren't for Yu Mou Bearing blood and deep hatred, I really want to be friends with Brother Li for life."

When Yu Fan said this, he let out a long sigh, his voice full of misery and helplessness.
