Jianghu Is Not Solitude

Fang Zhenyuan brought six or seven of his men and ran all the way south, opening up flowers on the horses' buttocks before finally escaping Yangzhou City.

Fang Zhenyuan glanced back and saw that no one was chasing after them. He slowed down his horse and turned to his men, "Damn it, we've never been in such a sorry state like this before. After we've finished giving out our darts, we'll go back to the headquarters and rebuild our men."

When these subordinates heard this, none of them answered. They all hung their heads like defeated roosters!

"Why aren't you talking? Wasn't it just a slap in the face? Is there a need to be so depressed? " Fang Zhenyuan said angrily.

"Chief escort, we have a total of forty-six men this time, but only these few are left. Such a huge loss has never happened before!" One of the escort said in grief.

"How can one not be slashed when one is adrift in the martial arts world!" I am lucky to be able to keep my life! " Fang Zhenyuan sighed, "But this time, we did lose a lot. It was all because of our inexperience, but don't worry, we didn't lose our darts. That's not considered a failure!"

"But he broke the Military Advisor and Brother Du. This is a fatal blow to our escort company!" The escort continued.

"What are you afraid of? As long as I am still alive, we, the Zhenyuan Escort Office, will do the same! " Fang Zhenyuan said with a heroic face.

When the escort team heard this, their confidence was rekindled. They all stared at Fang Zhenyuan as if they saw hope.

At this moment, someone on the horse carriage coughed and laughed, "Fang Zhenyuan, when you said this, did you think you were going to die soon?"

Fang Zhenyuan was shocked, then his face turned cold as he said, "Meng Chunlou, stop speaking nonsense. You are still my prisoner. Do you believe that I won't be able to kill you if I were to use my fingers?"

"I don't believe it!" As the voice faded, the lid of the carriage was lifted. A figure soared into the sky like a crane and made a beautiful turn in the air before slowly landing on the ground, blocking Fang Zhenyuan's horse head.

Seeing this, Fang Zhenyuan couldn't help but be shocked as he muttered to himself: "You, didn't you get hit by my 'Weak Tendon Powder'?"

"That's right! "But you forgot that there is time for the drug. I must thank you for refusing to give me water to drink from it, or else I would still be paralyzed in the car like a pile of mud!" Meng Chun Lou smiled bitterly.

Fang Zhenyuan felt chills behind his back. He subconsciously looked at the escort guards and said hatefully, "You pieces of trash!"

When the bodyguards heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other. They felt that it was too late to explain!

Meng Chunlou stared coldly at Fang Zhenyuan, his mouth filled with hatred, "Fang Zhenyuan, it was all in vain for us to get to know each other, and I even treated you with so much respect. Yet you treated me like that, what else can you say?"

"There's nothing to say! Since my old relationship has broken down, I will have to meet you for real! Brothers, fight it out with him! Fang Zhenyuan roared, but his eyes landed on the bodyguards.

The bodyguards were hesitant as to whether or not they should fight with Meng Chunlou. Now that Fang Zhenyuan was looking at them, they did not have the time to think about it anymore. They immediately drew their sabers and pounced at Meng Chunlou!

Meng Chun Lou was furious and shouted, "Shameless scumbag, give me your life!"

As soon as he finished his sentence, he suddenly flew up and faced the escort guards. The sword in his hand flew out of its scabbard and stabbed into their hearts with a "sou sou sou sou" sound. Those people did not understand what had happened, but their lives had come to an end!

Meng Chunlou coldly looked back at Fang Zhenyuan. Just as he was about to kill him with a single slash, he saw him suddenly jump off his horse and kneel down before him with a "thump"!

Meng Chun Lou could not help but feel surprised. She coldly asked, "Don't you think it's too late to come and beg for mercy?"

"It's not that Fang Zhenyuan is afraid of death, it's just that if you kill me, you've lost your sense of justice!" Fang Zhenyuan said righteously.

"Oh? For someone as heartless and unrighteous as you, if everyone could kill him, how would it be dishonorable? " Meng Chun Lou asked.

"No!" You only know that I drugged you to harm you, but didn't know that there was another secret behind it! " Fang Zhenyuan said seriously.

"Oh? What secret? " Meng Chun Lou couldn't help feeling curious.

"Did you deceive Zhao Dexing with thirty thousand taels of silver and a bag of pearls while pretending to be an envoy? In addition, did you ask him to treat the refugees with all his might?" Fang Zhenyuan asked.

"That's right!" I did it. Who told him to be heartless? " Meng Chun Lou smiled bitterly.

"Let me ask you this again. Did you use some tricks to cause a conflict between Prefect Chen and Zhao Dexing's men, resulting in countless deaths and injuries?" Fang Zhenyuan asked.

"None of them are good. They should all be killed! The reason I didn't personally kill them was because they weren't worthy to die under my sword! That's why I made them bite each other! Do you have something to say? " Meng Chun Lou asked.

"Of course I have something to say! It may seem righteous for you to do so, but you have actually violated a great taboo! " As Fang Zhenyuan said this, he stood up from the ground. "First, pretending to be an errand boy is already a capital offense, but for the other two, lying to others is even more of a crime. With these three things, the gods and men will be angered. I will hand you over to the government, that is what righteousness is! "

When Meng Chunlou heard this, he could not help but smile bitterly and said, "Zhao Daxing took advantage of the disaster to put up the benevolent and righteous sign of taking in the victims and forced them to work as slaves in the stone mill. He did not care about their lives. Furthermore, that Prefect Chen, as the official, not only did he not think for the common people, he even thought of corrupting and amassing wealth.

"That's right!" They should all be killed, but you shouldn't be the one to kill them! " Fang Zhenyuan smiled indifferently, "After all, they are the citizens of the imperial government, the subjects of the emperor. How can we allow a swindler like you to enforce justice?"

"Everyone in the world cares about this world. As long as they dare to commit evil deeds, anyone can interfere!" Meng Chun said.

"Preposterous!" If we do as you say, if you do something wrong, will it be possible for me to interfere in it? " Fang Zhenyuan said angrily.

"Of course you can!" Meng Chunlou said firmly.

"That's right! Since you've committed so many mistakes, what's wrong with me questioning the officials about you? Could it be that if you can control others, then can't you control others? " Fang Zhenyuan said angrily.

Meng Chun Lou couldn't help but be at a loss for words. She couldn't find any words to refute.

That's right!" "We did have a deep relationship before, but that was just a personal relationship. Now that you have committed a grave mistake, I can only exterminate my relatives because I am on the side of righteousness, and this is not a personal relationship in your eyes!" Fang Zhen said from afar.

"Forcing logic!" Meng Chunlou said hatefully.

Fang Zhenyuan laughed coldly before continuing, "Now, you have relied on your martial arts to kill my men. If you still want to kill me, that would be killing justice and taking advantage of your own greed!"

Meng Chunlou laughed bitterly and said, "I didn't expect my chivalrous heart to be rejected so badly! Fang Zhenyuan, even if you have a bright tongue, I won't forgive you! "

"Meng Spring Pavilion!" You can disregard justice, but can you ignore favors? " Fang Zhenyuan said angrily.

"A favor? You want to use this to save your life? "Impossible!" Meng Chunlou said coldly.

"Wrong!" Absolutely wrong! At this point, just based on our friendship alone, you cannot buy my life. What I want to say is something else! " Fang Zhen said from afar.

"Oh? Tell me, what else do you have to say for yourself? " Meng Chun Lou laughed coldly.

"Although I planned to capture you to hand you over to the government, and even more so, to avenge my own family, I had no other choice!" Fang Zhen said from afar.

"Oh?" Meng Chunlou was slightly surprised. "Who did you say was your relative?"

"Of course it's Zhao Dexian!" Fang Zhenyuan sighed, "He was originally my old customer, and all these years we, the Zhenyuan Escort Office, have protected countless darts for him. Because of this relationship, we were able to keep our heart and soul in our relationship. Once when I was drunk, he said half-jokingly that he wanted my daughter to be his daughter-in-law and asked me if I agreed. When my brain was burning with passion, I agreed.

Meng Chunlou pondered for a moment before saying, "So, you guys became relatives just like that?"

If I agree to his request, I'm afraid that it will affect my daughter's future prospects. Not to mention, my daughter has never seen his son, so I don't know if she is interested in him, but Zhao Daxing is very thirsty, and the betrothal gift he sent is quite generous, so I agreed! Fang Zhen said from afar.

"I understand!" It's because of this relationship that you have to help him deal with me! " Meng Chun said.

"That's right!" This is the secret! " Fang Zhenyuan's face twisted in pain, "Meng Chunlou, even though we've known each other for so many years, we were at most friends. That is all I can say. If you still want to kill me, then do as you want.

Meng Chun Lou stared closely at Fang Zhenyuan's face, only to see a resolute expression and a cold aura emitting from him. His heart skipped a beat as he thought to himself, "If my relatives were to be killed by someone, would I be able to hold back from taking revenge?" No, definitely not! Even if I did manage to hold it in, it doesn't mean that I don't want to take revenge in my heart! Forget it! Let's put our hearts at ease and let him go! "

At this point, he turned his head to the side and coldly said, "You can leave now, before I change my mind!"

"You, you really let me go?" Fang Zhenyuan asked with a puzzled expression.

"That's right!" Not only will I let you go, I will also allow you to come here and seek revenge on me at any time, because you have to give an explanation to the dead! " Meng Chun said.

Fang Zhenyuan pondered for a moment, then said: "Alright! Just based on what you said, I will recognize you as a man! Just you wait, as long as I have the chance, I will come find you for revenge! "Farewell!"

As Fang Zhenyuan spoke, he mounted his horse, raised his whip, and left in a hurry.

Meng Chun Lou could not help but sigh and said, "I hope I'm right!"

At this time, it was already deep into the night. Meng Chunlou stretched his back and walked towards the city. He thought, Du Jiangsheng must be getting impatient right? Would he be able to sleep now?

While he was lost in his thoughts, he unconsciously entered Yangzhou City. Walking along the familiar street, he felt a little lonely. Maybe the streets of the foreign lands would always give people a bitter taste.

The last wonton stand on the corner of the street also started to close after the last customer left. Meng Chun Lou suddenly felt a strange coldness. "I was really unlucky tonight, I almost lost my life!"

Meng Chunlou looked up and saw that the man was dressed extravagantly but looked rather wretched. Especially when walking, his legs were raised and lowered. Clearly, he was a cripple.

There was another person standing beside him. That person was slightly drunk and had a long beard. He laughed and said, "What happened? Could it be that the girl from Pleasant House is going to squeeze you dry? "Let me tell you, the girls there are much better than the girls at Spring Pavilion!"

"Go go!" What a wild guess! I tell you, there's been a happy night! I almost peed my pants in fright! " the cripple said.

"Ah?" It can't be? The Pleasant House has a very deep background in Yangzhou city, who would dare to commit murder there? " The person beside him asked as he stared with a drunken look in his eyes.

"Would I lie to you? It is said that the one who killed is called Gu Yiyang, and the ones who were killed are the two experts of the distant escort company! " the cripple said.

"Then there must be a good show? To tell you the truth, it's been a long time since I last saw a master fight! " the drunkard beside him said.

"What's so good about it?" For a head to roll around on the spot, it must be extremely scary! " At this point, the cripple couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, "I still remember that dead man's appearance in my mind!"

"Huh?" That drunkard seemed to have sobered up a little, "If you're so scared, then wouldn't Yan Jiuniang be crying?"

"She isn't, but she's in trouble now!" the cripple said.

"It can't be? Who dares to cause trouble for Yan Jiuniang? Does he not want to live anymore? " The drunkard sneered.

"There really are people who don't want to live!" Let me tell you, there are a total of three women and a man, they have already made a ruckus to the heavens. As for that Yan Jiuniang, forget about how tragic it would be, according to the intentions of the four, they would have hanged Yan Jiuniang the moment the sun rose! " the cripple said.

"What?" Don't tell me that they have eaten the heart of a bear, the heart of a leopard? " The drunkard rolled up his sleeves, "If they dare to touch Yan Jiuniang, I'll be the first one to refuse!"

"What's the use of you not agreeing? "Let me tell you, that group of people are all amazing. If they were to make a move, they can even stab a hole in your head!" the cripple said.

"So terrifying?" The drunkard couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"Do you know Chief Li from the city? His martial arts aren't considered low, right? However, he was thrown out of the Pleasant House in just one move. He was so scared that he scrambled to escape. If you ask me, who would dare to cause trouble there? " the cripple said.

"Ah?" These people even dared to hit Chief Li? " The drunkard was so scared that his face turned green, and when he opened his mouth, he forgot to close it.

"So, it's better for us to go back and wash up. Whoever is not convinced, we'll take a walk around the Pleasant Tower and keep it in his memory for the rest of his life!" As the lame man spoke, he parted ways with the drunkard at the fork in the road and went his own way.

When Meng Chun Lou heard this, his heart couldn't help but move as he thought to himself: "That Yan Jiuniang is a good person, who would make things difficult for her? "No, I have to go over and take a look. If there's really someone causing trouble, I'll have to interfere!"
