Chapter 2 The Power of Power
It only took less than two sticks of incense to take a carriage from the city gate of Kaifeng to Prince Zhao's Mansion, which was only half an hour. During this time, Yang Kang racked his brains and thought.
From the fact that Peng Lianhu and Sha Tongtian came to greet him and told him the news, it can be known that these two bandit leaders did not know Wanyan Honglie's plan. They were two useful people. However, under the overwhelming power of the Sixth Prince of the Jin Kingdom, Yang Kang could not
Determine what choices these two people will make.
At this time, he has no way out. If he escapes, he will feel guilty. He may not have a good life in this life.
Wanyan Honglie asked him to enter the city because he was waiting for an explanation. This explanation was related to mutual trust. Yang Kang didn't know how much Wanyan Honglie knew about his whereabouts in Jiangnan. If there was anything in his explanation that was related to the information Wanyan Honglie had.
Every entry and exit will aggravate the Sixth Prince's suspicion, thereby affecting his own life.
In this case, all his whereabouts must be told. Only by not lying can it appear true. Lying at this time is undoubtedly irresponsible to oneself.
So how did he know about Qu Lingfeng's tavern in Niujiacun?
According to the social scope of the young prince of the Jin Kingdom, there may be two sources of information, one is Qiu Chuji of the Quanzhen Sect, and the other is Mei Chaofeng. It is difficult to verify the benefits of Qiu Chuji for the time being, but it is more reasonable to say the benefits of Mei Chaofeng.
But it can be verified at any time.
The first explanation is that Mei Chaofeng told Yang Kang the address of Qu Lingfeng in the first volume of the scripture, so Yang Kang went to Niujia Village to kill Qu Lingfeng and rushed to Taohua Island to win the trust of Huang Yaoshi and steal the scripture.
But this requires Yang Kang and Mei Chaofeng to compare their confessions in advance, otherwise Wanyan Honglie will know the truth and falsehood as soon as he asks Mei Chaofeng. The last thing Yang Kang wants is to tell Mei Chaofeng everything about Qu Lingfeng. This explanation is very risky.
.
The second explanation is that Yang Kang accidentally learned from Qiu Chuji that Qu Lingfeng was hiding in Niujia Village. He also heard from Mei Chaofeng about the power of the "Nine Yin Manual", so he came to Niujia Village alone to kill him.
Qu Lingfeng rushed to Taohua Island to steal the scriptures.
Qiu Chuji once appeared in Niujia Village. Both Wanyan Honglie and Bao Xiruo knew this. It was Qiu Chuji who triggered the whole story. This Changchun man made friends with Qu Lingfeng from the tavern in Niujia Village, and inadvertently told Yang Kang
know.
Although it is somewhat coincidental, it is entirely possible.
Why go alone? You can tell Wanyan Honglie about this and then send someone to Niujia Village. This will be safer.
Yang Kang was not sure about the authenticity of what Qiu Chuji said. After so many years, maybe Qu Lingfeng had moved away. He just went to Niujia Village out of curiosity. Unexpectedly, he met Peng Lianhu and Sha Tongtian. Since these two people
If you want to help, then just kill Qu Lingfeng.
Although it's more of a coincidence, it still makes sense.
Since this kind of scripture is so miraculous, can you give it to your father?
Practicing martial arts is too dangerous, and you can go crazy if you are not careful. Mei Chaofeng is the best example. The father is a noble person, so there is no need to take risks. It is not too late to pass it on to the father after the child has mastered it.
This answer is undoubtedly wrong. You should immediately offer the scripture with a sincere face, so as to show the true love between father and son.
But this was the scripture he had stolen through all the hard work, and he was unwilling to hand it over like this. However, compared with losing his life, the scripture was nothing.
Along the way, Yang Kang asked and answered himself in his mind, imagining all kinds of tricky and weird problems, and he wanted to leave no loopholes.
At this time, he wants to have powerful power more than ever. He wants to get rid of this insecure state. It is a very sad thing to have his life in the hands of others.
The carriage stopped at the door of the palace. He rubbed his stiff cheeks and rolled his tongue in his mouth a few times to prevent him from stammering when he spoke for a while. Stuttering was also a sign of guilty conscience.
Opening the curtain, Yang Kang showed a normal smile, jumped out of the carriage, and saw Bao Xiruo at first sight. Bao Xiruo was looking at him with a smile, and his eyes slowly showed concern and affection.
Seeing this woman, Yang Kang felt that it was all worth it. In order to avoid future tragedies, he had to improve his strength as soon as possible, and he would do whatever it took to do this.
Next to Bao Xiruo was Wanyan Honglie. Originally, the prince and princess did not have to go to the gate to greet their son, but Bao Xiruo insisted that she wanted to see her son earlier, so Wanyan Honglie had no choice but to accompany her.
The eyes of Yang Kang and Wanyan Honglie met in the air. Yang Kang showed full of admiration, while Wanyan Honglie showed his deep affection. The two acted together in the same scene, vividly showing the affection between father and son.
After a while of greetings, it was the family dinner.
Bao Xiruo couldn't help picking up food for Yang Kang, while Wanyan Honglie watched with a smile. From time to time, he asked about Jiangnan's experiences and gossiped, and the family of three was enjoying themselves.
Yang Kang introduced the scenery of Jiangnan like a conscientious tour guide. Although he had been on the run, he had visited many places. Because of Xiao Huangrong, they had food and accommodation in the most upscale places, which were often also cities.
symbol, so he has no shortage of talking points, especially those Jiangnan delicacies. Yang Kang has benefited a lot from Xiao Huangrong's critical eye.
At this time, Xiao Huang Rong was taken to the palace's annex by Peng Lianhu. It was originally the royal hunting garden in the Northern Song Dynasty. It had pleasant scenery and beautiful scenery. Wanyan Honglie took it as his own as a place to relax in his spare time.
Although Yang Kang promised to take good care of little Huang Rong, Peng Lianhu obviously did not pay enough attention to the five-year-old girl. He asked the four ghosts of the Yellow River to take care of the little princess of Peach Blossom Island.
After the family dinner, Yang Kang chatted with Bao Xiruo for a while and then left. He knew that the next step was the key point.
In the study room, the Sixth Prince of Jin Kingdom was reading a book, "Spring and Autumn".
Yang Kang knocked on the door and came in. He stood opposite Wanyan Honglie and saluted. After a brief pause, he began to tell the story of his trip to Jiangnan.
The story begins in the grassland. He met Mei Chaofeng. Mei Chaofeng was a disciple of Dongxiehuang Yaoshi. From here, he got involved in the world's most wonderful book, the "Nine Yin Manual", but Mei Chaofeng only had the whereabouts of the manual.
If you don't have the support of the above volume, you will easily go crazy in practice.
Then he listened to the discussion of the Seven Quanzhen disciples in Zhongnan Mountain and learned that Qu Lingfeng, another disciple of Huang Yaoshi, was hiding in Niujia Village in Lin'an Prefecture. He then became interested in exploring the truth.
In Niujia Village, he accidentally met Peng Lianhu and Sha Tongtian, and they teamed up to kill Qu Lingfeng and went to Taohua Island for on-site inspection. Then they lured the Quanzhen Seven Sons to rescue Zhou Botong, stole the scriptures, and fled all the way until they returned to Kaifeng.
Mansion.
"Father, this is the first volume of the scripture." Yang Kang took out the scripture from his arms, handed it over respectfully, and said confidently, "With this wonderful book, when the child develops peerless martial arts, we will
I’m not afraid of those so-called martial arts masters anymore.”
Wanyan Honglie looked at the booklet but did not reach out to pick it up. He was thinking about the story A Kang had just told.
The whole story has ups and downs, the plot is compact, and it is extremely dangerous. There is no sign of recollection during the narration process, it is just a plain narration. This shows that it is not made up on the fly. Either Akang has already thought about this way, or Ah Kang has already thought about it.
Everything Kang said is true.
Is this the truth? Is it because I am paranoid?
Wanyan Honglie did not make a conclusion immediately. He still needed multiple verifications. Anyway, he was not planning to deal with Yang Kang at the moment. He had enough time to judge the authenticity of this matter and was not in a hurry.
In his opinion, Yang Kang's entire plan was full of loopholes, more like a child's nonsense. If he came to Niujia Village, the villagers would definitely be killed, or they would directly forge a village to confirm his identity.
"This is something you have worked hard for, so just keep it." Wanyan Honglie waved his hand and reminded, "Practice is very hard, and your mother may be worried. You should be careful."
Wanyan Honglie personally wasn't very interested in martial arts secrets, which took decades to practice and were very laborious. He was more interested in state-governing strategies or military tactics, such as Yue Fei's "Wu Mu's Suicide Notes".
This is the difference between a hero and a warrior. They have different points of view and different values towards things. A hero looks at the world, while a warrior looks at the world.
Yang Kang didn't expect that Wanyan Honglie would be so cold to this peerless secret book. This kind of cold talk was not disguised, but came from the heart. He was limited by his own knowledge and thought that in this world of martial arts, martial arts was of course ranked second.
The first is, but this is not only a martial arts world, but also a real world.
In this real world, martial arts is just an auxiliary, and strong power is the most important. If you become the emperor, there will naturally be countless martial arts masters willing to sacrifice their lives for you.
"Akang, come and take a look at this." While Yang Kang was stunned, Wanyan Honglie picked up a piece of paper from the desk and handed it over.
Yang Kang took it and looked at it. The word "武" was written on it. The word was written heartily and majesticly. He could see a trace of martial arts from the top. The signature below was "Hong Qigong of the Beggar Clan" in five small characters.
"I found this on this desk three days ago. There were two guards standing outside at that time. Those two guards didn't know anything afterwards." Wanyan Honglie sneered, "You can enter the study quietly and leave this
Damn it, this is the ability of a peerless master."
Yang Kang knew that the two guards must have been executed, but was Hong Qigong doing this as a demonstration? Since he could easily enter Wanyan Honglie's study, he could also easily enter Wanyan Honglie's bedroom...
"What does the old beggar want to do? Is he going to harm his father?" Yang Kang asked with concern.
"Akang, you should study more. You have been neglecting your studies recently." Wanyan Honglie scolded, "The word '武' when broken down means to stop fighting. It is both a warning and a plea for peace. Those beggars are unwilling to make peace."
If we fight against each other, assuming they know the current situation, I originally wanted to kill a few more."
