"Last year in Yueyang, Master Murong was besieged by An Xiaohan and Zuo Dao, and his arm was tragically broken. His beloved disciple Hua Feng also died in Chushui City because he was hit by Zuo Dao's fire palm." Lan Qiao said solemnly,

"Now Zhang Zhongjie, who has a background in the Erqi Society, is escorting Ling'er to Beijing. Even those of us in the Jianghu have heard about it. How could the Erqi Society be unprepared?"

Bai Xueyin continued for him, "Uncle Murong expected that Zuo Dao would be an obstacle during the prisoner robbery tomorrow. He wanted to take this opportunity to kill Zuo Dao and avenge his late beloved disciple."

Li Jingshu said in surprise, "I don't know much about the affairs of the world, but I think Zuo Dao and Master Murong are both on the list of celebrities, and their martial arts skills should be between them. Now Master Murong only has one arm left.

How can I defeat Zuo Dao?"

"I don't know about this either." Lan Qiao shook his head and sighed softly, "The Huashan School's martial arts emphasizes energy rather than form. Since Master Murong is here, he must have his own method."

Li Jingshu thought for a moment and said, "Headmaster Murong and I are considered acquaintances. Now that he has arrived in Jiangpu, as a junior, I, as a junior, should go over and pay my respects and see if there is anything I can do to help."

Lan Qiao thought that what she said was reasonable, but he said uneasily, "But your father's side..."

"I'll just go home a little late, it won't be a problem." Li Jingshu said easily, "Let's go."

She took Lan Qiao and Bai Xueyin out of the Kong family compound, and then turned into an alley without hesitation.

It was completely dark now. Bai Xueyin asked in surprise, "Do you know which way to go?"

"Of course." Li Jingshu smiled and said, "If I guess correctly, the place you agreed on is the Guandi Temple in the north of the county."

Lan Qiao sighed in admiration, "It seems that you are not only a master of cooking, but also a female Zhuge who can pinch and calculate."

Guandi Temple is located next to the official road two and a half miles north of the county seat. It looks like it has not been repaired for at least thirty years.

With a broken tile roof, leaky walls, and an old tree that was either dead or alive, it was surrounded by a thin fence, making it barely a small courtyard.

Li Jingshu just walked to the door of the courtyard when a petite figure flashed over. The man drew out a sharp sword, pointed at Li Jingshu warily and said, "Who is that person?"

"Who are you?" Li Jingshu saw that this person was almost a head shorter than herself, and she was a little girl with an immature face. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "Whose little girl didn't notice and came here?"

"Who are you calling a little girl?" the little girl glared, "I'm already thirteen years old!"

Li Jingshu chuckled and said, "You are so fierce at the age of thirteen? You are so obedient."

"What's so funny!" the little girl said, straightening her sword again, but she saw Bai Xueyin and Lan Qiao following them.

"Senior Sister!" The little girl hugged Bai Xueyin excitedly. Then she saw Lan Qiao beside her, and she lowered her head in embarrassment and said, "Senior Brother Lan."

"Little junior sister?" Bai Xueyin was surprised and happy when they reunited in a different place, "Why are you here too?"

At this time Lan Qiao also recognized her and said, "Hello, Xie Xuechu."

The little girl immediately showed a joyful expression, excited but a little shy and said, "Senior Brother Lan, I didn't expect you to still remember me."

"What don't you remember?" Lan Qiao said with a smile, "You look a lot taller than a year ago. You are now a big girl."

"Really?" Xie Xuechu hated it when others thought she was a child. Hearing what Lan Qiao said, he smiled happily and said, "I'm just telling you, they all think I'm young and won't let me come, but I insist on coming."

"There's really nothing we can do about you." Another woman came out. It turned out to be Lu Xueyu from Tianlian Sect Xingsan. She greeted Lan Qiao and Bai Xueyin and then continued, "Master originally didn't allow her to go down the mountain, but she didn't expect that she would

She sneaked down the mountain in the middle of the night and insisted on pestering me to go on the road together. I couldn't resist her, so I had to bring her here."

Bai Xueyin said, "Didn't Xue Ying come with you?"

Lu Xueyu said, "Second Senior Sister was seriously injured by Liang Mengxing last time, and she has been recovering from her injuries until now. As for Fourth Junior Sister, Fifth Junior Sister, and Sixth Junior Sister, the affairs of Tianlian Peak and Hejia Village cannot be separated from them, so it's just me and Xiao

Junior sister, come."

While everyone was talking, they suddenly heard a burst of laughter. Feng Zhenyue, dressed in black robe, strode out, excitedly patted Lan Qiao on the shoulder and said, "Huaiyuan, you're here!"

Feng Zhenyue was also accompanied by Feng Yueming, Xu Yang and Wu Yi, who had the best relationship with Lan Qiao when they were in the Hou Mansion. They reunited after a long absence and had their own pleasantries.

Li Jingshu bowed to Feng Zhenyue Xiang with a graceful manner, and said calmly and authentically, "My little girl Jingshu, please give my regards to Mr. Feng Hou, Mr. Xiao Hou."

Feng Yueming and Li Jingshu met in Yueyang, but the last time Feng Zhenyue saw her was more than ten years ago. "The humane girl has changed greatly. I didn't expect that they hadn't seen each other for more than ten years. The little girl who always played with Ling'er back then,

Now she is such a beautiful lady."

Li Jingshu lowered her head in embarrassment and said, "Master Hou, that's a compliment."

At this time, two more people walked out of the Guandi Temple, but they were Tang Li and Du Zhen. Seeing everyone talking around the entrance of the courtyard, Tang Li smiled and said, "It's still cold today. It's not too late to go in and talk if we have something to say. Don't freeze. Li

Miss."

So everyone moved to the Guandi Temple. Seeing that there was no one else, Lan Qiao said doubtfully, "Uncle Murong..."

Tang Li explained in a low voice, "After master suffered a broken arm, he learned from the pain, and suddenly he seemed to have a great enlightenment. From then on, he gave up swords and specialized in qigong. He combined the fragments of the secret manual passed down by his master and modified Jing Hui's sword technique into a brand new set.

His palm skills and martial arts have not retreated but advanced, and he has taken a step further from now on. This time he is here to use his left sword to avenge Brother Hua."

Du Zhen continued, "This 'Thousand Mirrors and Thousand Blades Palm' has earth-shattering power and consumes a lot of energy. Master is currently meditating in the back room and adjusting his breath to prepare for tomorrow's battle."

Lan Qiao nodded and gave up the idea of ​​going to greet Murong Ying. He turned around and asked Feng Yueming, "Brother Ruhui and Lord Marquis have both come to Jiangpu. Over there in Qingzhou..."

Feng Yueming said, "With Yun He and Bai Qin here, one is in charge of the outside and the other is in charge of the inside. We will make a quick decision here, and there shouldn't be any major problems."

"A quick victory?"

Feng Yueming suddenly took a step closer, lowered his voice and said, "In addition to the people you see now, I have also selected a thousand Langya cavalry to accompany them. They are currently stationed at the foot of the mountain seven miles north of here."

Lan Qiao sighed, "With two great masters like Master Hou and Uncle Murong, and a thousand cavalry like Brother Hui pressing down on the formation, we are determined to win this battle tomorrow."

"I also have a letter here, which was sent by Chen Yuheng from Peiping." Feng Yueming took out a piece of letterhead and handed it to Lan Qiao, saying, "The general idea is that it is his duty to help the master rescue his wife, but he needs to

I am taking care of the little princess Zhu Qingxiao in Peiping, and I can't get away for a while, so I have to send this letter to wish the master success."
