Chapter 114 Unknown Forces
Capital
Strict Mansion
In the lobby, a fat, short-necked, one-eyed man was playing with a jade cup in his hand.

"Master Shaoqing, Fenyi sent someone to deliver a letter." A housekeeper reported.

"Oh? Is it Shifang's letter? Come on, bring him in." The fat man said in a high-pitched voice with a happy expression on his face.The person who spoke was Yan Shifan. Because of his father Yan Song's high position and authority, he did not pass the imperial examination to enter the official career. Based on his father, he first entered the Imperial College to study, then became an official, and then achieved the current position of Shangbao Secretary Shaoqing.

"The villain has met Master Shaoqing." Yan Shifang's servant saluted respectfully.

"En." Yan Shifan nodded and asked, "How is Shifang?"

"Back to your lord, my young master is having a bad time, that's why he ordered the villain to deliver a letter to your lord." The servant took out the letter from his pocket and handed it to Yan Shifan.

Yan Shifan took the letter, opened it and read it, his eyes flashed brightly, and then scolded sharply: "Two bastards who don't know how to live or die dare to oppose my Yan family." Ever since Yan Song and his son gained power in the court, no one has ever Dare to offend them, even their relatives and local officials who are far away in Fenyi dare not provoke them easily, which led to Yan Shifang's arrogance and arrogance.Then Yan Shifan said to the servant: "You go back first and tell Shifang to be patient for a while. These two people are from the martial arts world, and ordinary people cannot deal with them. I will find a way to solve this matter for him."

Seeing that Yan Shifan agreed to the matter, the servant thanked him all the time: "The villain thanked the lord first on behalf of my son."

Yan Shifan waved his hands and said, "Shifang and I have the same roots, his affairs are my affairs, and I should come forward to seek justice for him."

"My lord cares about family affection, and this villain is very touched." The servant said flatteringly.

Yan Shifan was also very pleased when he heard this, he waved his hand and said: "Then you go back and report to the order first, the housekeeper will take him to the account room to collect ten taels of silver."

"Yes, sir."

"The villain is better than the adults." The servant hurriedly thanked him, and couldn't help saying in his heart: This is a good job, and you can get ten taels of silver by sending a letter.

After the servant left, Yan Shifan ordered his servants to prepare pens and ink, hurriedly wrote a letter and handed it to a servant, and said in a sharp voice: "You set off immediately to Shuangyu Port, Ningbo Prefecture, and deliver this letter to the In the hands of Captain Wufeng, there is no delay."

"I understand, my lord, please rest assured." The servant picked up the letter, turned around and left.

Yan Shifan got up and stretched, walked out of the study, and walked into a room with a lewd smile on his face.

"Be careful, come, let the master love you well."

"Ah, master, look at how anxious you are, oh, master, you are good or bad..."

After a few days of rest, the three of Yan Ruogu set off again, heading west into Huguang territory.

"Young master, our people sent back news that those three people have arrived in Huguang." A servant reported back to Yan Shifang.

"Okay, keep staring at them and find out their whereabouts." Yan Shifang's eyes were full of treachery. What Yan Ruogu and the others did to him not only made him lose face, but also lost a lot of money. He has always held a grudge, but he also suffers from the terrible martial arts of the two of them, so he is afraid that his servants will follow their whereabouts, and then tell Yan Shifan their whereabouts. He knows that Yan Shifan has a lot of friends and knows many strange people. , so he knew that Yan Shifan would find someone to avenge him.But he didn't know that what he did today also caused him to be killed in the future.

It is said that Tianyin Palace is located in the land of Huguang, Junshan on Dongting Lake. This mountain is actually an isolated island on Dongting Lake.The original name of Junshan Mountain is Dongting Mountain, which means Immortal Cave House.According to legend, 4000 years ago, when Emperor Shun visited the south, his two concubines, Ehuang and Nvying, were too late to catch up. Panzhu cried bitterly, and tears dripped on the bamboo, turning it into mottled bamboo.Later, the two concubines died on the mountain, and later generations built the tomb of the two concubines.The two are also called Concubine Xiang and Lord Xiang. In memory of Lord Xiang, Dongting Mountain was changed to Junshan, also known as Xiangshan.There are 72 peaks of different sizes on Junshan Mountain, and Tianyin Palace is on the highest one of them.

In the evening of this day, the three of Yan Ruogu finally arrived at the bank of Dongting Lake. Lan Bier led them to find the ferry that Tianyin Palace set up by the lake, and the three of them boarded the boat.

"Looking west from Dongting at the branch of the Chu River, the water runs out and the southern sky sees no clouds.

The sunset in Changsha is far away in autumn, I don't know where to hang Xiangjun. "

Yan Ruogu leaned against the mast of the ship with Lan Bi'er in his arms, and slowly chanted, their faces were full of sweetness.Bai Shaotang sat alone on the bow of the boat, quietly admiring the clear water and clear waves of Dongting.The evening in early spring is still a bit cool, and the breeze blowing over the face makes people feel a chill in their hearts unconsciously.

"Murderous," Bai Shaotang said vigilantly.

At this moment, Yan Ruogu and Lan Bier also felt a strong murderous intent approaching them.

Suddenly, five figures sprang out of the water around their hull.

"Brother Yan, it's Fusang ninja." Bai Shaotang flew to Yan Ruogu's side.

"嗖" and "嗖" sounded through the air, and countless hidden weapons struck at them.

"It's a shuriken," Yan Ruogu called out.He had seen it in the Jiuhuashan battle that day, and he had already known it.The three immediately shot to resist.

"what"

"what"

At this time, two screams sounded, and the two Tianyin Palace disciples who were ferrying them had already fallen down.

Although there are a lot of shurikens, they are not very lethal to the three of them. In a short while, the surface of the boat is covered with shurikens knocked down by them.At this time, the five ninjas in the sky stopped their hands together, and at the same time showed the shining Japanese sword, flew straight down from the sky, and slashed at them.Could it be that the three of Yan Ruogu would let them be slaughtered, and the three of them used their special skills to meet the five ninjas.Yan Ruogu only found out that these ninjas were much stronger than the ninjas in Jiuhua Mountain at that time, both in terms of skill and skill. If the Jiuhua Mountain faction is involved, the threat to the major factions will be even greater. Why does he keep hiding?At this moment, his heart was full of doubts, and he always felt that these ninjas were not that simple, so he shouted to Bai Shaotang and Lan Bier: "These ninjas are not simple, let one survive."

"Okay" the two said in unison.

Although these five ninjas were powerful, they were still far from Yan Ruogu and the other three. Not long after, three of them died, one was captured alive, and the other jumped into the lake and fled in a hurry.

Yan Ruogu tied the captured ninja tightly, and then asked: "Who sent you here?"

A gleam of light flashed in the ninja's eyes, and suddenly a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"No, he committed suicide by taking poison." Bai Shaotang quickly opened his mouth, but it was too late, the ninja had already died. "Hey, this Fusang ninja has poison in its teeth. Once captured alive, he will bite through the poisonous teeth and take the poison to die. I really didn't expect that a clue was wasted." Bai Shaotang said with a face of regret, and then he turned his head to Yan Ruogu and asked. Said: "Brother Yan, why do you care so much about their origin? Could it be that these ninjas were not sent by Yamamoto?"

"I suspect that these ninjas were not sent by Yamamoto." Yan Ruogu said with a serious face.

"Brother Yan, who else would it be if it wasn't sent by Yamamoto?" Lan Bier asked curiously, and Bai Shaotang on the side also looked at him in a daze.

"We can think of it this way. First of all, Yamamoto is very afraid of my father now. Secondly, he can't be stupid enough to send a few ninjas who know that they can't kill us to scare the snake. Isn't he afraid that my father will go to him? In addition, some ninjas this time His skills seem to be much stronger than the group of ninjas under Yamamoto. So I don’t think these people were sent by Yamamoto.” Yan Ruogu paused, then looked at Bai Shaotang and said, “You may not know, Bi’er, but Bai Brother, do you remember that when you answered my father's question in Wanjianzong Shanben that day, you mentioned another group of Fusang people. It was this group of people who killed my mother back then, so I wonder if it has something to do with this group of people. But I can't figure it out, why do they want to attack us, is it because they want to catch me and threaten my father like they did back then?"

"Brother Yan, if this is the case, then they will definitely send people over again. We are telling them that they are in the dark. Isn't this very dangerous for you?" Lan Bier worried.

"Hehe, I don't care what the reason is, since they want to be unfavorable to Brother Yan, then I, Bai, will be the first to fight." Bai Shaotang's attitude was tough, and then he looked at Lan Bier and said with a smile: "I said Miss Lan , you don’t have to worry so much, with your brother Yan’s current skill, I’m afraid most of the people they send will never return.”

"Hehe, Bi'er, you don't have to worry, I'm just guessing, I'm not sure if it's the Fusang people." Yan Ruogu said comfortingly.

"Okay, let's not think about it for now." Yan Ruogu looked at the sky, then turned to Lan Bier and said, "By the way, Bier, your two junior sisters have unfortunately died, so now we have to take the helm It’s going to be dark soon, and we’re going to go ashore before dark, Bi’er, take the helm and steer the direction, and Brother Bai and I will paddle.” After speaking, the three of them started to sail the boat slowly towards the Junshan. . . . . .
