The night rain is drizzling, and the cold wind stops. The air outside has a strong and cold smell. At this time, everyone is used to moving at their homes because the wind outside is really strong and the rain is also cold, and it is not suitable for traveling far away at this time.

But Ye Tan needed to go out because the matter was not completely settled, and there were still some things to be handled, and he also had to help Li Shimin a favor. After all, it was inappropriate for a governor to run around casually. It would not work if you didn't come up with a suitable reason.

Tongzhou was the place where Ye Tan came to last year. What’s different from before was that the Zizhu Sword Sect no longer exists. Now the largest sect or family in Songzhou is the Iron Sword Martial Arts Hall. However, the Iron Sword Martial Arts Hall is more careful in doing things now, because they know that although the governor Hu Meng is afraid of his wife, he is a different-minded person, so it is natural to act low-key.

However, their furnaces and iron ore businesses were doing well. Later, I heard that they were holding a thigh from the capital, so it was even more amazing.

There are now three masters in the Iron Sword Martial Arts Hall. The eldest is Li Batian, the constable of the governor's mansion. He has a bad temper and is ruthless in his work. He is tall and strong, and is extremely burly, but he is a person with a bad brain. The second is Jiang Behe, and I am Jiang Kun. The owner of the Iron Sword Martial Arts Hall is now a bit strange. He is the son of the late Iron Sword Martial Arts Hall. Jiang Sheng used to be an extremely weak person and could fall down by the wind. However, he met a paramita and was slowly cured. Moreover, his sword skills were very heavy and cruel. He was nicknamed Ye Yu Dao.

The Iron Sword Martial Arts School is developing well now. Overall, it is a healthy development. Even Qing, who had a bad relationship with Jiang Biehe in the past, now he has a little bit of his life, and his hostility may be reduced a lot. Unfortunately, there is a problem lingering in Jiang Kun's head, and he doesn't know what to do.

Relying on the skills taught to him and Yan Lao, they improved the iron smelting technology. Although it would not become unique all of a sudden, the stove and coal cake actually made them live better. Many things in this world may be really terrible. The more precious it is, the more ordinary people dare not touch it, because the result will not be very good as long as they are touched. And ordinary things that seem inconspicuous but can wrap a person's life in them are really good things.

Therefore, in just half a year, the scale of the Iron Sword Martial Arts Hall has expanded many times, and there are many people practicing martial arts. However, Jiang Sheng is a bit different. He is known as the Night Rain Knife, and usually only practices the Five Animal Play. Although this thing is not widely circulated, there are many people who really use it, and he can hardly see him practicing swords. However, when people from the Bashan Sword Sect in Bazhou outside came to provoke, Li Batian and Jiang Behe ​​were not opponents. Just when the other party looked at them arrogantly, Jiang Sheng's thin man, who was like a literati, came out.

The knife in his hand was not the killer left to him by Ye Tan at the beginning, because since he practiced the sword technique given to him by Ye Tan, he found that he really couldn't control the knife for the time being, so he could only choose one casually. When the people from the Bashan Sword Sect came, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go up.

The sword follows the king's way, and the sword follows the domineering way.

The other party was a big man. The Bashan Night Rain Sword in his hand was like the night Rain of Bashan, real and real, like a ghost, extremely strange. Jiang Sheng used a knife to cut off the opponent's long sword, and then put the long sword on the opponent's neck, and the other party was stunned.

Originally, Qing thought that after this, he would get greater power, but unfortunately the final result was Jiang Sheng saying, "I still need to practice knife, so I gave it away. So, many times, Qing not only hated Jiang Kun and his son, but also hated his younger brother, because the other party really didn't help him at all."

Perhaps for compensation, Jiang Sheng often asked Jiang Kun to help his sister more. Because of this, Qing's reputation in Tongzhou is far-reaching.

Because of this, Qing's domineering arrogance in Tongzhou is also famous. Although Ye Tan is not in Jiang Mansion, but in an inn called Xiaoshitou in Tongzhou, he still heard about it.

The inn is very good at staying here, including lieba or people who rely on their strength to make a living. These people have no money, but the gossip is very well-versed. Of course, it is more gossip news, especially about men and women, and I am even more excited.

"Have you heard that, Tongzhou has begun to lose his boys recently." A short and fat man who looked a little vulgar, said in a low voice. There was only a bowl of bad wine and a small plate of meat on the table in front of him, but there were a lot of wild vegetables. You could tell at first that life was not very good, and you could eat with your strength. At the same time, when you were tired at night, you would only have a bowl of extravagant bad wine, but you would enjoy it. On the other side were four or five people who were dressed similarly to him, all of whom were tattered, but they seemed to be very good at inquiries and weaving stories about men and women.

"Yes, I heard that I took a job at Aunt Wu yesterday. After finishing it, it rained outside just now. As a result, I heard that the grandson of the old Zhangtou family who sold tea in the corner of the street was gone. The little kid is only twelve years old this year and looks very good." Another man with a tattered face said in a low voice, as if he was excited. At the same time, he poured a sip of wine into his mouth, saying that he had just lifted him up, but he just scavenged him and cheated on his mouth.

"Old Zhang is about to go crazy. His family is a single-handed person for four generations. His son and daughter-in-law died early, so they rely on this child to pass on the family line. Now it's gone." Another person's face was a little cleaner, and his words seemed a bit humane, but his next sentence made people feel disgusted.

"It's not that I was caught by the Yangchun Pavilion, I heard that they like men there."

"It's very likely that, after all, it's a restaurant that has appeared in less than half a year. I heard that the men inside are very gorgeous, and they are a little more beautiful than women."

"No, what I heard was another story." A thin and shriveled man pinched a small piece of meat with his dry fingers with black mud and put it into his mouth, and said with an intoxication, while the other people around him were trembling a little by his movements, not because of disgust, but because of heartache, there was not much meat.

"What's the matter? Tell me." The short and fat man asked anxiously. He was more excited about this kind of thing than eating meat.

"Do you know the Iron Sword Martial Arts Hall?" the thin man asked mysteriously, looking at both sides, as if he was worried about being heard.

"Of course, I heard that it was about to go bankrupt. Later, a paradise came. Not only did it cure Jiang Sheng's ill tuberculosis, but it also brought them a good set of iron smelting techniques. In addition to the Zizhu Sword Sect, people were destroyed. Now, in Tongzhou, except for the governor Hu Meng, they are powerful. I heard that they had a relationship with a big man in the capital. Now even the governor may not dare to really mess with the other party."

The short and fat man didn't know anything. His words directly expressed all the conditions and benefits that the Jiang family had appeared during this period, and then looked at the thin man proudly, as if he was saying, "Do you have anything else to know?"

The thin man continued to say something differently, "Anyone who is from Tongzhou doesn't know about this, but do you know that the people from the Bashan Sword Sect of Bazhou came to ask for trouble some time ago?"

"How can I not know? I heard that the Bashan Sword Sect exists like a ghost in Bazhou. I heard that it is very powerful. Although there are not many people in the sect, they are very cruel in their work. They are very powerful in Bazhou. In the past, because there were Zizhu Sword Sects in Tongzhou, they dared not come. Later, after the Zizhu Sword Sect was destroyed, they wanted to get involved in Tongzhou. After defeating almost all the people in the Iron Sword Martial Arts Hall, Jiang Sheng appeared. He defeated the man who was known as Bashan Ghost Crying Sword, and then the man withdrew. As a result, this kid became famous in one battle."

"You just know that he became famous in the battle, but what you don't know is that Jiang Sheng has a sister named Qing, right?" the thin man continued to ask.

"Why don't you know, it's the woman who had a good relationship with an elder of the Zizhu Sword Sect at the time. What's wrong? I heard that this person is very tough and has many masters around him."

"Yes, this Qing almost drove Jiang Kun and his son away, but what he didn't expect was that he did not succeed in the end. But even so, her current sphere of influence is very large. Because she is not the owner of the Iron Sword Martial Arts Hall, Jiang Kun gave her a lot of privileges, but this person didn't know how to be grateful and used these rights to seduce good women everywhere. I heard that many families were destroyed because of her."

"I heard of this." The man with a slutty face said in a low voice, "The Qing had an affair with his father Jiang Long's sworn brother Li Kun. Later, after Li Kun was crippled by the paradise, his energy was not as good as before, so she couldn't stand the loneliness and started to do whatever she wanted. But, I heard that she was refining alchemy recently, and I heard that after eating it, it would make people live forever."

"Eternal Life Pill?" The fat man couldn't help asking. This thing is a rare object. To be honest, many people are very interested in these things. However, this thing is only circulated in large families. Although everyone knows that it cannot be true, when you are decades old, you will find that this kind of thing is an irresistible temptation. Is it true or false? Is it important?

"Yes, I heard that it's this, and this thing needs to be used as a medicine guide for boys and girls." As soon as his words came out, the already cold little inn seemed to be even colder, because this thing couldn't be said to be very good or bad. However, if you use people to smelter elixirs, it always makes people unable to help themselves.

"Can you say that the missing child in Lao Zhang's house was the one?" The short and fat man couldn't help but drink all the bad wine in the bowl in one gulp, and then asked with a big breath, "This matter is not only explosive, but also very explosive."

"I don't know this, but how many of the wealthy families are guarding their bodies. I heard that many royal princesses are very messy." After saying this, the thin man stopped talking, but instead lowered his head and started eating vegetables and meat. Because it was getting late, they had to go home to sleep under the cold rain. They had to get up early to find work tomorrow, otherwise the whole family would go hungry.

Ye Tan, who was sitting not far away, sat next to him, namely Zhao Zhao, the chief captain of Songzhou, Ye Du, the future patriarch of Yejia Village, Ye Xiao, the cooker, and a silent man, dressed in black and thin, sitting there like a piece of wood, but eating and drinking are great.

Following Ye Tan was Ye Qi. He was used to standing there, his clean clothes and his pretty face. He was really a good young man. If he was a wealthy man, he would definitely be a handsome young man. Unfortunately, he is wearing ordinary clothes but he feels like a poor scholar in the world.

There is nothing delicious here, for sure, so Ye Xiao followed Ye Tan. This was what Ye Dafa asked. As a governor, don’t bring a chef when he goes out, are you planning to starve the governor to death? Moreover, Ye Tan is from Yejia Village and from Songzhou, and now he needs such a show.

Therefore, there were only cooked, tasteless pork, some hare meat, pheasant, etc. on their table, which tasted average. If it weren't for the hard work of traveling, Ye Xiao would have made a table of dishes.

Now I can only eat it honestly. In fact, those dishes are simply delicious to Liba not far away. Unfortunately, the boy who just tested the dishes is really not a good person. His eyes are really like the night owl I saw on the mountain one night, and his eyes are very terrifying.

Ye Xiao has a lot of skills, and his sword skills are the most powerful, but his sword skills are more used to cook. After hearing their words, he looked at Ye Tan with some confusion and said, "Young Master, is it true or false?"

"Of course it's true, why, do you want to go and have a look?" Ye Tan didn't eat anything on the table at all. He just picked up a fruit and ate a few bites. He didn't need to eat a lot.

"Somewhat, young master, I have seen some sword techniques in the world, and they are not as good as the sword technique you gave me. Although I don't know how to solve the sword technique, I believe that there are not necessarily such powerful things in the world now, just the people below bragging." Ye Xiao said with a smile, and at the same time, a slender knife that was only the size of a palm rolled in his hand, as if he would prick his palm at any time, but in fact there was nothing wrong.

"They are not bragging. I have taught Jiang Sheng for a while. He is an introverted child. However, he has been practicing martial arts for too short. This time he defeated a Bashan Ghost Crying Sword and was just an ordinary outer master. If he only defeated it, it would be fine. However, he even broke the long sword of his own. Look, this time, problems will soon ferment."

"Then you can go and have a good look." Ye Xiao said with a smile, as if he was a little unwilling to give up.

"Okay, after eating, let's rest. If the weather is good tomorrow, I'll hurry on my way." Ye Tan stopped talking and went to rest after eating the fruit.
