A knife in love

Chapter 7

Yu Changyuan sent Yan Dufei and Li Qiufeng into the guest room, said some gossip, and then left.

After the sound of Yu Changyuan's footsteps disappeared, Li Qiufeng said to Yan Dufei in a low voice: "Mr. Yan, just now you were playing charades with the owners of the estate, I wonder if you can tell me something about it?"

Yan Dufei chuckled, and said: "When I first came to Wuhu Mountain Villa, I didn't realize that Yu Changyuan and others had anything to do with this secret. It was only when I entered this village that I realized that this person is really good. With his martial arts status , to be willing to endure here for ten years, this kind of skill is truly unmatched."

Li Qiufeng said: "Yu Changyuan is from Hebei, what's so strange about living here?"

Yan Dufei sighed: "Yu Changyuan is a well-known hero in the Jianghu, but as far as I know, 'Flying Fish' Zhuang Hengyun was a one-legged thief who ran rampant in the world in the past, why did he also become Yu Changyuan's? Sworn brothers? Brother Li, you once said that Yu Changyuan had a close relationship with the thief Ma Kongkong, isn't that a little weird?"

Li Qiufeng was stunned, and said: "Perhaps Yu Changyuan is a righteous person and has private contacts with these underworld figures. It's not surprising. How could Mr. Yan see that he has ghosts in his heart?"

Yan Dufei walked to the door, looked out, and said: "Ma Kongkong was famous in the martial arts back then, and he stole countless treasures. His lightness kung fu is unmatched by others, but this man has another method that is even more impressive. That's right, that's the art of making mechanisms. Hehe, if my guess is correct, when Senior Brother Qiao helped the late Emperor build the mausoleum, this Ma Kongkong was one of the craftsmen he invited."

Li Qiufeng met Ma Kongkong back then, and knew that this man's martial arts were very good. Looking back on the situation that day, it seemed that there was indeed something strange between Yu Changyuan and Ma Kongkong.Yan Dufei said: "I told Brother Li about the origin of this matter, but I think you haven't fully understood the details, so I might as well tell you all about it."

When he said this, he sighed, and continued: "More than ten years ago, I was just a young student in the Qinghai School. At that time, my teacher was seriously ill. It was Senior Brother Qiao who taught me the martial arts of the Qinghai School. One year, Senior Brother Qiao When I went to the Central Plains to do business, I didn't expect to encounter a strange thing.

"Back then, the three of my senior brothers first came out of the sect, but they also became known as the three deadly swordsmen in Qinghai. Senior brother Qiao went to the south of the Yangtze River, and he was actually targeted by people from the Nanhai faction. These people have always had enmity with our sect. He secretly attacked Senior Brother Qiao. Although Senior Brother Qiao was good at martial arts, he wounded these people with hidden weapons. Although he killed several people with his fierce swordsmanship, he suffered several serious injuries on his body, so he had to use his light kung fu to escape.

"The killers from the South China Sea faction are chasing after him, and they insist on putting Senior Brother Qiao to death. Senior Brother Qiao was cornered by them, and he was about to fight to the death, but unexpectedly, he met a noble young master. This young master's There are indeed quite a few martial arts masters among the people, and they helped and drove away all the disciples of the Nanhai Sect. Brother Qiao felt grateful for the young master's saving his life, so he asked his name. Brother Li, who do you think that person is?"

Li Qiufeng shuddered and said in a trembling voice: "Could it be that this young master is the late emperor?"

Yan Dufei smiled slightly, and said: "That's right, that young master is the late emperor. The late emperor always liked to visit mountains and rivers, and he still didn't change his habit after he took office. Senior Brother Qiao has always been conceited. After receiving such great kindness from the late emperor, he became the emperor's bodyguard with all his heart. The late emperor also liked Senior Brother Qiao very much. household.

"It should have happened. That year, senior brother Qiao accompanied the late emperor to Jiangnan for a private visit, and encountered a strange incident that almost ruined the Ming Dynasty. However, after this incident, although the late emperor died in depression, senior brother Qiao also ended up a martyr. What happened to him is truly deplorable.”
