A knife in love

Chapter 207

The Yan family knew that they could not regain face by relying on the rules of the rivers and lakes, so they wanted to use the power of the government to avenge Yan Wuji, spent a lot of money to hire the most famous lawyer in the capital, and submitted a case to Shuntian Mansion.

There are rules in the Jianghu, no matter how many people die, they cannot surrender to the government, otherwise they will be cut off from the Jianghu, and people in the martial arts will no longer recognize their status in the Jianghu.The Yan family's move was a break with the entire martial arts world, and since then they have been unable to gain a foothold in the arena.It's just that the two evils are the lesser of two evils, and Yan's family is at the end of their rope, so they put all their eggs in one basket, trying to fight Shajiabao to the death.

Unexpectedly, after the petition was delivered to Shuntian Mansion, there was no news.After the disappearance of Yan Family's masters such as Yan Wuji and others, their strength has been greatly reduced. The various sects that were originally feuding with each other continued to seek revenge from the Yan Family. There are fewer and fewer unseen projects.Litigation is a bottomless pit, the big lawyer and the money given to the officials of the Shuntian Mansion have taken out all the wealth of the Yan family.Shuntian Mansion procrastinated on this case for a long time, Yan's family was anxious like ants on a hot pot, and in the end they even had to borrow money to rent a house in the capital.

The case dragged on for nearly half a year, and finally the people sent by the Yan family to the capital couldn't stand it any longer, and found a book case in Shuntian Mansion after all the twists and turns, and only then did they know why Shuntian Mansion was holding back the case.It turned out that the ancestors of the Sha family had made great efforts for Cheng Zu Zhu Di in the battle of Jingnan. It is said that the secret decree written by Cheng Zu was hidden in the fort, so the government did not dare to provoke the Sha family.After receiving the complaint, Shuntian Mansion sent someone to post a post to Shajiabao respectfully, asking whether the matter was true or not.Shajiabao replied that there was absolutely no such matter, and Shuntian Mansion didn't dare to ask any more questions, so the case was suppressed.

The book case told Yan's family that Shuntian Mansion did not dare to handle this case, so Yan's family should stop thinking about it, even if it was reported to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the case would still be transferred to Shuntian Mansion's hands.If Shajiabao bites back, the Yan family is afraid that disaster will be imminent.It would be better to leave the capital as soon as possible and go back to Jiangxi to live an honest life.At this time, the Yan family was at the end of its rope, with no money or people.When Yan Wuji was proud, he played the "one city, three rounds, seven gates and thirteen forts" that had been so arrogant in the capital.At this time, Yan's family was in great misfortune, and these local snakes in the capital took the opportunity to make trouble, sending people to attack the children who stayed at Yan's family from time to time.After several fights, another five or six people from the Yan family died.The Yan family wanted to go to Shuntian Mansion to sue, but without money, they couldn't even enter the gate of Shuntian Mansion.In the end, the Yan family couldn't hold on any longer, and fled the capital in desperation.The Jiangxi Yan family, which was originally so powerful in the world, fell into a slump and disappeared in the world.

After this battle, Shajiabao became famous in the martial arts world.It's just that Sha Yiming was really able to hold his breath, and he still didn't show his face in the arena.It's just that the prestige of Hutouyan Shajiabao has been established, and no one in the martial arts dares to make trouble in Shajiabao.Although Sha Yiming's reputation is not as high as Murong Qiushui's, Shajiabao has also become a dragon's pool and tiger's den in the martial arts world, and it is faintly rivaling Murong Villa.

Li Qiufeng knew that Murong Danyan was stubborn, and he was spoiled in Murong's house. This time he sneaked out of Murong Villa, although he suffered repeated setbacks, his temper changed a lot.But when she met a master of the world like Shajiabao, she would definitely go to the door to pester her.If Sha Yiming was provoked, Murong Danyan might not be able to retreat completely.He only hoped that Sha Yiming would be scruples about Murong Qiushui's reputation so that he wouldn't kill him.

Li Qiufeng galloped wildly, but at dusk, he had already arrived at a town.He got off his horse and asked the owner of a dog meat noodle stall on the side of the road, only then did he know that the town was called Liujiadian, and Hutouyan was not far to the north of this town.

Li Qiufeng asked the way to go, and then thanked the boss, and was about to gallop away, but he heard the boss talking to himself: "It's really strange today, so many people come to ask where Hutouyan is..."

Li Qiufeng's heart trembled, he hurriedly got off his horse again, and said to the boss: "Is there anyone else who can ask for directions?"

While serving noodles for the diners, the boss said: "To be honest, my stall happens to be at the entrance of this town, and there are many people asking for directions every day. It's just that since yesterday, people asking how to get to Hutouyan There are more. Just half an hour ago, a couple of men and women came to ask me..."

Li Qiufeng said: "What do those couples look like?"

The boss frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "The man is tall, in his 20s, and holds a sword in his right hand. I can't see the woman's face clearly, but she looks a little thin, and she can't even climb a horse. It was the man who helped him up."

As soon as Li Qiufeng heard the boss's words, he immediately knew that the couple must be Xiao Zhanpeng and Ma Dongqing.He thought to himself: "Why didn't these three people go back to Jiangnan, but came here? And the three of them actually divided into two groups. What happened?"

He was thinking about it, but he heard the boss say: "That Hutouyan is not a good place. I heard that there is a very powerful person living there. A few years ago, some people went there to seek revenge, and the results were all He never returned. I heard that the man raised several tigers, and when he was unhappy, he would throw the living people to the tigers to eat. In these years, I have never met anyone who wanted to go to Hutouyan. It was just the evening before yesterday. At this time, a young man asked me how to get to Hutouyan, but in the past two days, people kept coming to ask for directions, and they all asked how to get to Hutouyan, do you think it is strange?"

Li Qiufeng said: "What does that young man look like?"

The boss held a few bowls, put them into the bucket to wash, and said, "That young man is very handsome, he looks like a big girl..."

Li Qiufeng's heart moved, and he asked, "Is she also carrying a sword?"

The boss shook his head and said, "That's not true..."

Li Qiufeng was slightly disappointed, and was about to turn around and leave.But I heard the boss say: "He has two swords. He has one in his hand and another on his back."

Li Qiufeng's heart trembled violently, remembering that day when he captured Zhu Ju and snatched the "Buddha's Tears" sword from his hand, he handed it to Murong Danyan for safekeeping.According to what the boss said, the young man disguised as a man must be Murong Danyan.I just don't know why she went to Hutouyan Shajiabao, and after she went, why so many people rushed to Hutouyan?

Li Qiufeng thought that two days had passed, and he wondered if Murong Danyan had entered Shajiabao.He was very anxious, thanked the boss, and then galloped away.

At this time, the sky was completely dark, and there were very few pedestrians on the street, so Li Qiufeng lost a lot of scruples, and rode his horse through the Liujiadian until he reached a main road on the north side of the town.According to the boss's instructions, walk five miles along the main road, and you will reach the boundary of Hutouyan.Li Qiufeng patted his horse forward, and after walking less than two miles, he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes in front of him, and faintly saw two riders walking slowly.

Seeing that there were two people, a man and a woman, Li Qiufeng hastily shouted, "Brother Xiao and Miss Ma?"

The two riders stopped, but they heard the man say: "Brother Li?"

Li Qiufeng galloped his horse to catch up, and sure enough, the two were Xiao Zhanpeng and Ma Dongqing.When the three met, they were both surprised and delighted.Xiao Zhanpeng said: "Brother Li, why are you here?"

Li Qiufeng said: "I was going to ask you and Miss Ma, I heard that Miss Murong is going to Shajiabao, what is going on?"

Even though it was dark, Li Qiufeng could still see Xiao Zhanpeng's wry smile, and he only heard him say: "After we broke up with Brother Li that day, Miss Murong was not very happy. Xiao knows that she never takes me seriously. I didn't dare to persuade her, so I had to ask Miss Ma to enlighten her. Although she was depressed at the time, she didn't say anything. That night, we lived in a town not far from Tongzhou Wharf. The two girls shared a room , who would have thought that when I woke up the next morning, I found that Miss Murong had disappeared..."

When Xiao Zhanpeng said this, he heard Ma Dongqing say apologetically: "It's all my fault, I slept so hard, I don't even know when Miss Murong will leave..."

Li Qiufeng said: "Miss Ma, don't blame yourself. Since she is going to leave, she must have been prepared. You don't know martial arts, and she slipped out in the middle of the night, how do you know?"

Xiao Zhanpeng went on to say: "When Miss Ma found out that Miss Murong was missing, she called me over. We searched the inn, and made a fuss, but there was no sign of Miss Murong. I asked the boss and the waiter, They all said that they had never seen Miss Murong go out, and they thought she left from the roof while it was dark. Xiao was really helpless at the time, but Miss Ma reminded me. It was not long after Brother Li left, Miss Murong asked I asked, "Who is the most powerful martial arts master in the left and near capital of the capital?" At that time, I answered casually, "Sha Yiming, the master of Shajiabao". I didn't care. Miss Ma said, Miss Murong won't be discouraged to go to Sha Yiming for a martial arts competition. After hearing this, I suddenly realized, so I bought two horses and took Miss Ma to chase them all the way down. On the way, I met several groups of people in the martial arts world. , It is said that people are clamoring everywhere, saying that Shajiabao is going to be picked. Right now, martial arts figures from all over Hebei are gathering in Shajiabao, wanting to see this duel with their own eyes.”

Ma Dongqing said on the side: "It's all because I don't know how to ride a horse. Xiao Daxia had to accompany me, so he walked slowly and arrived here today."
