Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 730

Go out from the east gate of Xijing City, and then go south about three miles, there is a barren mountain, at the foot of the mountain is a ruined temple that has been in disrepair for a long time, this place can be said to be inaccessible, because there have been rumors about this barren mountain Haunted, you can always see ghosts in the middle of the night, and occasionally you can hear very shrill voices coming from the ruined temple.

Because of this rumor, the locals in Xijing hardly go here, even if they take a long detour, they would not pass by here.Even those passers-by who don't know the place, they will speed up their pace and try not to stay here if they feel the eerieness here.

After coming and going, the mountains became more barren and the temples became more dilapidated.

"Why did the leader find such a gloomy and terrifying place to meet? I heard that this temple has a history of hundreds of years, but I don't know when it was abandoned. Once you enter here, you will feel creepy, and you will feel the cold air go into your bones." inside."

"The more eerie the place, the less people approach it, it is the most ideal place to meet. And..."

"It turned out to be the family temple of the main family, where the heroic spirits of the previous generations of the main family are placed."

At this time, if passers-by pass by here and hear the sound coming out of the ruined temple, they will definitely be frightened. They will never believe that there are living people in the ruined temple that has been rumored to be haunted.

In the center of the main hall of the ruined temple, a bonfire was burning, and a dozen men in black sat around the bonfire, talking in a low voice.

"The leader called us here in such a hurry, something must have happened."

"Something serious happened!"

A muffled voice came out from behind the statue. Hearing this voice, the people in black who were warming the fire quickly stood up and saluted the masked man in black.

"leader!"

"Everyone sit down!" The masked man in black waved his hand and asked everyone to sit down, "We don't have much time, so let's make a long story short. In the past few days, great changes have taken place in Xijing City. All the members of the five groups are missing. I got inside information that they should have been arrested by the little emperor, but it’s not clear where they are being held.”

The other men in black were shocked when they heard this. They have been guarding the outskirts of Xijing City all the time. I don't know anything.

"Boss, why did the little emperor suddenly target us?"

"Maybe it's not about us. After all these years have passed, very few people know about our existence. The little emperor is young, so he shouldn't know about this. Is this just a coincidence? They were actually involved in other things of?"

"The arrest of one person or a group may be a coincidence. The arrest of five groups at the same time must have been premeditated." The masked man in black looked at his subordinates, "I came here because you have never You have never been in Xijing City. For the people inside, you are a stranger, and it is more convenient to inquire about things. When the city gate opens tomorrow morning, you will enter the city separately, and go to places where there are many people such as taverns and tea houses. News to see what's going on. These five groups are vital to us, we have to get people out."

"Yes!" The people in black agreed in unison. One of them looked at the leader and asked boldly, "The leader is going to the city too?"

"If you don't have any news at noon, I will go into the city." The leader waved his hand feebly, with a slightly tired voice, "That's it, let's go!"

The men in black got up again, saluted the leader, and left the ruined temple in twos and threes, leaving only one man in black to walk to the leader.

"Big brother!"

The man in black who stayed behind took off his hood while watching the leader take off his mask, revealing a very tired face.

If Shen Haolin and Shen Cha were here, they would definitely find that their appearance was very similar to Yu Shan and Yu Qishi who were imprisoned.

"came back?"

"Well, as soon as I came back, I heard that you summoned everyone, so I hurried over. What did you mean just now, the third child was also arrested? Are you sure?"

"I'm sure! I went into the city today and went around. Although it was calm on the surface, the place where the third child and a few others lived was watched secretly. It was either the imperial army or the patrol battalion. Moreover, the streets were responsible for patrolling. There are too many of them, tight inside and loose outside, and the guard is very strict." The leader... In other words, Yu Da, the eldest of the Yu family, was sitting by the campfire, looking at the burning flames in a daze, "Other people, I don't know much about it." I'm worried, but the third child..."

"Are you afraid that the third child will shake you out because of Xiao Qi?"

Yu Da didn't speak, just nodded silently.

"It's not impossible. The two of them have been like one person since they were young. The third child raised him like a son, and his relationship is much deeper than our two brothers." The fifth child of the Yu family, Yu Wu Chongzhong Sighed, "I also advised you at that time, don't listen to our mother, she won't intercede if she doesn't let me? After all, Xiao Qi is our brother. When brothers encounter difficulties, we as brothers will say no." Hey, what will the master think? You don't listen, you insist on carrying out the master's order."

"But mother..."

"She doesn't like Xiao Qi, and even hates Xiao Qi. She thinks that her father left her so early because of Xiao Qi's birth. In the past year, Mother has become more and more paranoid."

"Father died to save the old Patriarch, so what does it have to do with Xiaoqi." Yu Da frowned slightly, "Don't talk nonsense, mother wouldn't think so."

"Boss, you spend too much time outside. You don't see our mother often. I don't know what she is thinking in her heart. This is not my nonsense, but I heard it with my own ears."

"When? Where?"

"At Mrs. Xiao's place." Mentioning his mother, Yu Wu felt helpless, "The two of them have always gotten along very well. When Mrs. Xiao is bored, she will find her to chat with. That day I went back to see Mrs. Xiao, and Before entering the door, I heard my mother complaining to Mrs. Xiao that Xiaoqi is a disaster star and always brings her endless troubles. Mrs. Xiao persuaded her to look at it. Later, when I went in, the two of them stopped talking about this matter Brother, think about it carefully, over the past ten years, every time Xiao Qi asked to see her mother, what is her attitude? Whenever there is any dangerous errand, mother always actively tells the master to let Xiao Qi go. She is not helping Xiao Qi to win meritorious deeds, she just wished Xiao Qi would die early. This time it was the same, but she ran into the secret conversation between the two bastards next door, and she took the initiative to suggest that the master kill Xiao Qi. Not only that, listen Said that he sent a letter to the third child, warning him not to intercede with Xiao Qi, and asked him to kill his relatives righteously. I..."

Before Yu Wu finished speaking, he saw Yu Da make a silent movement, and the two quickly got up, left the campfire, and turned behind the statue.

"Someone!"

Yu Da wrote two words on Yu Wu's hand, and shook his head lightly towards him, telling him to keep silent so as not to expose himself.

Yu Wu nodded, he seemed to have heard shallow footsteps, he covered his mouth, tried his best to hold his breath and concentrate, not making any sound.

Just when they focused all their attention on the main hall, someone approached them quietly from behind, raised the stick in their hand, and hit them hard on the back of the head.

"It's done!" Merlin threw away the stick in his hand, and clapped his hands towards Shadow Fifteen next to him, "Take it away!"
