Chapter 9

Ten miles south of Zhaoyang County, there is a high mountain with an altitude of about [-] feet and a depth of [-] to [-] miles, called Nanling.

Although there are elixirs and rare treasures in the mountains, there are also ferocious birds and beasts, and there are even rumors of monster activities. Warriors with a little strength may die if they enter, and ordinary people dare not even take a step closer here.

"Since 20 years ago, my father Hou Tong persuaded the county magistrate Ren Feng to join forces with the Qinglang Gang, Feiyingmen, and Happy Forest. A total of 300 warriors from the five parties were dispatched to clear out the [-] miles north of Nanling Mountain. Since then, This Nanling Mountain is much safer!
Ordinary people can also go in and collect some medicinal materials to make a living, but if they want to go deeper, it depends on their own abilities. "

Under the mountain road on the northwest side, two figures, one white and one red, were slowly moving towards the mountain with two carriages loaded with goods. The man in white clothes was proudly introducing Nanling Mountain to the woman in red skirt next to him. It was Hou Yuduan, the fifth eldest son of the Hou family.

Tian Honglu followed Hou Yuduan without any intention of listening to him. She looked at Hou Yuduan from time to time with extremely complicated emotions.

It had been seven days since she and her senior brother Duan Zhengqi were captured by Hou Yuxiao. They had been locked up in the west wing for these seven days. She was really scared at first, but as time went by, she found that Hou Yuxiao not only didn't say anything to them, He even sent someone to treat his senior brother Duan Zhengqi's injuries, so he wasn't so scared anymore.

After all, she was still young, and she had been supported and pampered by her father in the sect since she was a child. Once she was no longer afraid, her courage gradually became stronger.

The main reason was that Hou Yuxiao had ignored the two of them for such a long time. As time passed, she inevitably got bored, so she started to climb over the wall and try to escape.

Although she was caught back by the burly and domineering Hou Lao Er several times, after trying two more times, Tian Honglu was surprised to find that as long as she went to the courtyard next to the building, Hou Lao Er would not care about her, so by chance By coincidence, she saw Hou Yuduan who was reading and writing inside!

By coincidence, Tian Honglu's brother Tian Fazheng was sent to Yangzhou to study by his father Tian Linong since he was a child, so Tian Honglu had a special feeling for scholars since she was a child.

Plus, this is Zhaoyang County!

In Zhaoyang County under the rule of the devil, it is already amazing enough to have a Confucian scholar who reads the books of sages.

Asked again, Hou Yuduan was actually the fifth brother of Boss Hou, one of the notorious five sons of the Hou family in Zhaoyang County.

This immediately aroused Tian Honglu's curiosity.

In Hou Yuduan's words, he was in the Cao camp but his heart was in the Han Dynasty. Although he was in the devil's way, he always upheld the Confucian righteousness of the sage master, never did anything wrong, and always tried to persuade his brother and sister to escape from the devil's way.

The two were of the same age. Hou Yuduan stayed at the Hou family compound for a long time, and Tian Honglu rarely went out in the Mountain Sword Sect. The two simple people met each other and quickly became familiar with each other.

Today I heard that Hou Yuduan was going to Nanling Mountain to improve the lives of the mining slaves. Tian Honglu also begged him to come with her. Hou Yuduan was soft-hearted and readily agreed to him without even a few words.

Tian Honglu was not stupid. Hou Yuduan had only reached the fifth level of cultivation. The Hou people would definitely not let him out alone. She guessed that Hou Laoer, who had been staring at her, must be following behind.

But the problem is that Hou Yuduan was so close to her along the way. She could hold the other party hostage and then threaten Hou Laoer to let her go.

But whenever Tian Honglu made up her mind to take action, she would soften when she saw Hou Yuduan's face, which is why her face was so complicated at the moment.

She could tell that Hou Yuduan was not like that thin monkey boss Hou, nor that murderous second Hou Hou. He was really a pure scholar who yearned for Confucianism and Taoism.

Moreover, the other party was very kind to her from the beginning to the end, which is why Tian Honglu has not done anything until now.

"Miss Tian, ​​what are you thinking about?"

While Tian Honglu was deep in thought, she turned to look at Hou Yuduan, who was dressed in white and had a clear face. He was standing aside and politely asking himself, with a hint of worry on his face, and an unreal feeling suddenly surged in his heart.

It is really hard to believe that the elegant scholar in Confucian shirt in front of me is actually the biological brother of Hou Lao Er and Hou Lao Er.

All of this...couldn't be his disguise!

This thought flashed through her mind, and Tian Honglu suddenly became wary when she looked at Hou Yuduan's eyes.

Hou Yuduan noticed such an obvious change in his expression, and felt a little aggrieved. But then he thought that Miss Tian was kidnapped by his elder brother, and he felt very guilty, and did not dare to say anything more.

Suddenly, dozens of strong winds came from the flanks of the mountain road.

Tian Honglu's newly raised vigilance came into play immediately, and she looked determined. She quickly wanted to turn around and avoid it, but found Hou Yuduan still standing in the middle stupidly, and immediately stepped forward and pulled him over in annoyance.

boom……

The rocks shattered and trees flew everywhere. I saw where the two people had just stood. At some point, there were already more than ten people standing there. All ten people were wearing green wolf pattern shorts, and their auras ranged from the third level to the tenth level. wait.

The leading man was older, with white hair and an old face. He looked at the two men with sinister brows. The blood floating around his body was a sign of having entered the tenth level of marrow cleansing realm.

"Sage Hou is dishonest. He took a pretty girl into the mountains in broad daylight. Are you trying to learn how to eat wild food?"

"Hahahahaha..."

"Aren't you saying that he is a great saint studying at home? It turns out that the great saint also wants women!"

"That's not it, the taste of a woman, tsk tsk...everyone who has tasted it agrees."

The old man made a joke, and more than a dozen people around him burst into laughter. They also started teasing Hou Yuduan with your words.

The reputation that the fifth eldest son of the Hou family loves reading is no secret in Zhaoyang County.

If it were placed in the realm of the righteous realm, it might even gain a reputation as a virtuous person, but Zhaoyang County is the realm of the demonic realm.

Moreover, Hou Yuduan's three brothers and one sister are not good people.

In this way, Hou Yuduan became the object of constant ridicule by people in Zhaoyang County, and Hou Dashengren was a nickname for ridicule.

"Tan Fei, don't talk nonsense. Although I, Hou Yuduan, am not a saint, even if I have desires in my heart, I can't do the things you said. Miss Tian is... my brother's distinguished guest. I just want to take her there today. I’m just doing some errands at the Hou family’s mine!”

After Hou Yuduan retorted, he turned back to Tian Honglu for the first time, bowed slightly, and said apologetically: "This old man is Tan Fei, the deputy leader of the Qinglang Gang. He has an old grudge with my brother, so he speaks so openly. Yu Duan is truly sorry for damaging Miss Tian’s good reputation.”

Tian Honglu almost laughed out loud when she heard that Hou Yuduan actually admitted that she had desires in the first sentence. Seeing that Hou Yuduan actually apologized to herself in front of so many people, a strange emotion suddenly appeared in her heart.

Compared with those people in the world who always like to use force to solve problems, the feeling Hou Yuduan gave her was indeed... very different.

Tian Honglu was naturally not worried about the situation at this moment. She knew that Hou Yucheng was still following them, so even though she knew that Tan Fei was stronger than herself, she was not afraid.

Just as he was about to speak, unexpectedly Tan Fei seemed to think that the teasing was enough, his eyes froze, his blood was agitated, his body leaped vertically, and approached the two of them.

After all, he was a tenth-level warrior, and the difference could be seen as soon as he made a move. Tian Honglu was about to call someone, but she found Hou Yuduan suddenly standing in front of her.

"Miss Tian, ​​let me protect you!"

Tian Honglu really didn't know whether to be moved or helpless. Seeing that Hou Yuduan was about to be killed by Tan Fei, but that Hou Laoer didn't show up yet, she couldn't help but pull him away.

"You take care of yourself first, idiot."

Hou Yuduan was torn away, felt the powerful force in Tian Honglu's hand, and the other party's cultivation was far superior to his own, he was stunned for a moment...

It turns out that Miss Tian is so strong.

"You little bitch, if you mind your own business, I will kill you!"

Tan Fei's expression was ruthless, the blood in his hands suddenly superimposed, and his speed increased to another level. At the same time, he also called out to more than ten people around him.

"I'll deal with this bitch, and you go catch Hou Laowu."

"As ordered!"

Finally met Hou Yuduan in Nanling Mountain. At this time, his Green Wolf Gang was at odds with the Hou family. Catching this guy might threaten Boss Hou, which would be a great achievement. How could he let go of this good opportunity.

But just when Tan Fei's palm was about to touch Tian Honglu's sleeve, a ray of cold light suddenly flashed into his pupils from the side. His face suddenly condensed, and he suddenly pulled away and hid to the side.

The cold light penetrated directly through the position where he was standing, without any hesitation, and rushed directly towards those who were capturing Hou Yuduan.

brush brush...

Although it was broad daylight at the moment, the cold light still made everyone present feel a bit cold.

Every time the sword light flashed, the neck of a warrior from the Qinglang Gang was cut open, and then he fell to the ground.

They didn't even see the person who issued the sword light clearly, but they saw blood spurting about three feet high from their necks.

In just over ten seconds, more than ten people brought by Tan Fei were all killed.

Not a single person left alive.

It was a thin man wearing dark red clothes.

He was about five and a half feet tall, about the same as Hou Yuxiao. Although his face was handsome, his expression was so sinister that it made people shudder.

The already sinister expression, coupled with a pair of cold and emotionless eyes, makes people feel naturally uncomfortable when looking at him.

The sword in his hand was still dripping with blood, and he was looking at Tan Fei with evil eyes.

"Hou Laosi, you are going too far!"

Tan Fei looked at the dozen warriors he had brought with him, all of whom were lying in a pool of blood, with angry expressions.

"That's too much bullying... Jie Jie... It seems you haven't been bullied enough by me yet?"

Hou Yujie not only has a cold appearance, but his slightly sharp voice with a sadistic laugh makes people feel even colder.

Not to mention Tan Fei, even Tian Honglu, who was saved by him, felt a chill in her heart. Looking at Hou Yuduan next to her, she felt even more precious.

The Hou family is full of families, this is the most normal!
"Don't be too happy, Mr. Hou, too early. You, Mrs. Hou, won't be able to dance for a few days."

After all, Tan Fei failed to muster the courage to confront Hou Yujie. Looking at the more than ten gang members dead on the ground, he gritted his teeth and left a harsh word before running away in despair.

Hou Yujie looked at his fleeing back. Although there was a hint of cold light in his pupils, he did not chase him. Instead, he turned to look at Hou Yuduan and the two.

The first time he saw Tian Honglu, a dark color flashed in his pupils, especially when he saw Tian Honglu and Hou Yuduan standing together, the corners of his mouth curved slightly.

It's just that this arc is a bit eye-catching...

"Lao Wu, why didn't you inform Fourth Brother when you came here?"

Hou Yuduan, who always talked a lot, could not say a word for the first time in front of Hou Yujie.

He has been afraid of this fourth brother since he was a child, especially after the incident two years ago, when his temperament changed drastically, he was even more afraid.

But today he came here under the order of his eldest brother, Hou Yuduan looked at the supplies in the two carriages, and he still bite the bullet and opened his mouth.

"Brother asked me to come to the mine to do something. It's those mine slaves..."

 PS: The preparation period is a bit long. I mainly want to create a fuller image of the other four members of the Hou family. I hope everyone can give me a little more patience. Thank you for your support!
