life fate

Chapter 50

Although they were encircled and suppressed, the people in Jiubei Pavilion are still very reliable, and the people they rescued were all key figures.Among them are the fake master and the master.

Cheng Mubei had no choice but to put away his enthusiasm, hide the wine in the cellar, and then went to see the rescued people with Shen Jiansheng.Cheng Mubei only arranged for three people from Jiubei Pavilion to guard the cottage, and one of them died on the way, and the remaining two dragged four people back.

They were placed in the outer courtyard of Jiubei Pavilion. When Cheng Mubei arrived, none of them woke up from the panic.

Seeing Cheng Mubei again, the person in charge couldn't help but look solemn, "Master, you..."

Cheng Mubei interrupted him indifferently, "I saved you for a reason. If you don't cooperate with me well, you will die sooner or later."

The master had no choice but to keep his mouth shut, but the stunned fake master jumped up, "What do you mean!" The guard of Jiubei Pavilion who was accompanying him drew out half of his knife vigilantly, and the master hurriedly dragged the fake master down and sat down.

They are still in the jaws of death, so there is a reason to talk about conditions?The head of the house is called Liu Meng, and the fake head is called Liu Zhuang.When there was a famine in the town, Liu Meng had nowhere to go and led his brothers to form a bandit to survive by looting houses.Liu Zhuang was the child he picked up, so he simply changed Tan's name and surname, and kept him with him until he grew up.

"Our brothers on the mountain have some skills anyway, but the other party is really not an ordinary person. Let's not talk about the high martial arts. The point is that the action is very fast." Liu Meng's expression is still a little sad, obviously he has not yet accepted that he has so many brothers all at once. The fact is gone.

Cheng Mubei pondered for a moment, "Don't you look like someone from the government?"

"It looks like it doesn't look like it. They look like they are well-trained in action, but where do the government come from so many people with high martial arts skills." Liu Meng said with a frown.

Maybe it's higher than the government... But Cheng Mubei didn't say that.Dealing with copycats can at least be done under the banner of eliminating harm for the people. As long as there is someone to support them, it is really easy to avenge private revenge.

Cheng Mubei changed the subject, "Who asked you to rob us before?"

Liu Meng sighed, "It's really the two heroes I told you before. They threatened me. If I don't do what they say, they will kill all the brothers in our village."

It's just that I didn't expect it to be killed now.

Zuo Hufa and Song Yi also said that they lost their sanity at the time, and felt that Zi Sangzhu saved them, so they should repay them, so they did what Zi Sangzhu told them to do.Zi Sangzhu has always picked himself up clean, leaving all the public appearances to Zuo Hufa and Song Yi.

This move was actually very similar to what Ouyang Qiu ordered Long Xinyang back then, Cheng Mubei subconsciously frowned, feeling that he had forgotten something.

Cheng Mubei asked some unimportant questions and then went down. Their use value is limited, but it is more reassuring to control the hostages in his own hands.

With this alarm, Cheng Mubei hurriedly sent more people to the Mu's house in the capital. Anyway, this family is kind to them and they cannot be implicated.After arranging all these, he wrote a letter to Nan Chu, asking him to strictly guard the person who poisoned him, so as to avoid being assassinated.

Zuo Hufa and Song Yi went out to wander again, Cheng Mubei had no choice but to call someone to bring them back, now he is not at ease with Song Yi at all.There is also Yunhai. Although Yunhai does not have Master Zixiu, its overall strength is still considerable, and it only needs to add a few more spies.

After arranging these, the night is already deep.Cheng Mubei raised his hand and rubbed Jingming acupoint, feeling that this mulberry bamboo can really torment people.Shen Jiansheng rubbed Cheng Mubei's shoulders, "Leaving tomorrow morning?"

"Well," Cheng Mubei nodded, and suddenly his expression changed, "We have overlooked a problem. Zi Sangzhu has always had someone who can disguise, but we have not found it."

Shen Jiansheng's face also turned serious. Yirong is considered crooked in the eyes of many people in the Jianghu, but it is the most life-saving technique.Moreover, the method of disguise is so high that you don't even know who is around you, which is really frightening to think about.

Regardless of why there is such a person beside Zi Sangzhu, it is a headache to find out who that person is.Simple disguise is a trivial skill in the Jianghu, and many people can do it, but the real disguise is not something ordinary people can do. Take the ghost face they met in the small town of Beimo as an example... He pretended to be a woman for so many years, Who discovered the girls who had been with him for so many years?

What's more, people can seamlessly switch between the bustard and the head card, this is the real master of disguise.

Ghost Mian has three apprentices, the only female apprentice, Qian Mian, has been killed by Cheng Mubei, and the younger apprentice was killed by Ghost Mian himself, the exact reason is unknown to everyone in Jianghu.There is only one senior brother left, who was arrested by Prisoner Valley, escaped from Prisoner Valley with disguise and disappeared under the noses of everyone.

How could Zi Sangzhu find this person?Cheng Mubei remembered that this elder brother's code name seemed to be Zhongmian.

"Let's rest first," Shen Jiansheng said flatly, "The one who should come will never escape."

Early the next morning, the two set off for Zisang's family.There were still people clamoring at the door of Jiubei Pavilion, asking Cheng Mubei to come out to solve the matter in person, Cheng Mubei took Shen Jiansheng and slipped away quietly through the side door.

The Zisang family's headquarter is in Jiangnan, and there is still some distance from Jiubei Pavilion to Jiangnan.After Beiyuan let go, Young Master Cheng didn't dare to treat him casually, and hurried to Zisang's family.

The end of summer is still very hot, but the cool breeze in the evening can still feel a little bit of autumn, and before you know it, autumn is coming again.When the two arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, the weather was just right, and the water town was filled with warmth and humidity.The street market is still similar, except that the vendors sell different things. Cheng Mubei and Shen Jiansheng stored the horses in the inn at the entrance of the county, and they went to Zisang's family wearing veils.

Since they came here secretly, the two of them definitely didn't expect to fail in the end.Zisang's family has a big business, so just ask any passerby to know where the mansion is.The two looked at the Zisang family's mansion from a distance, and first found an inn to live in.Forcibly breaking into houses in broad daylight will definitely lead to disputes in Jiangnan, where the law and order is excellent. They don't want to confront the government.

There are a lot of traders coming to Jiangnan, and most of the inns are businessmen, so everyone's topic is inevitably about the business situation in each area.Of course, many people gossip about other people's families, especially the Zisang family.

There were discussions at the table next to Cheng Mubei and Shen Jiansheng. "You said that Zisang's family has been prosperous for so many years, and there is only one unworthy second young master Zisang left in this generation. Can they survive this generation?"

"It is said that Patriarch Zisang has not been in good health these years."

"Didn't they make trouble in the rivers and lakes this time, and it is said that they will go to the court together?"

Cheng Mubei couldn't help chuckling when he heard the word "together", and shook his head helplessly.Gossip is like this, people who speak always seem to be concerned about the country and the people, even if they don't know exactly what's going on, they must make a few remarks.

There is also a stronghold of Jiubei Pavilion in the south of the Yangtze River. Before leaving, Cheng Mubei checked it out...the one in the south of the Yangtze River is a silver village.They want to spy on Zisang's family at night, so they can only go to the base tomorrow to check the news in the rivers and lakes.

Soon the night rose, and the vendors on the street closed their stalls one after another. The people were sparsely populated, and the blue sky was dotted with stars.

Cheng Mubei and Shen Jiansheng sneaked into Zisang's family quietly. This mansion is very big, and they spent an hour looking for Zisanglan's residence.The main reason is that everyone has fallen asleep, and it is easy to expose their whereabouts if they are not careful.

Zi Sanglan is really greedy for life and afraid of death. There are many guards in his yard, and some of them seem to be pretty good at martial arts.Shen Jiansheng gestured to Cheng Mubei, indicating that he should lead these people away.Shen Jiansheng's lightness kung fu was much better than Cheng Mubei's, so Young Master Cheng could only nod his head.

Shen Jiansheng first threw out a prepared stone, making everyone panic before dodging out.He was so fast that only an afterimage was left, he first knocked on the head of the guard closest to him, then lifted the clothes of the guard on the other side, and approached the door.The crowd finally came to their senses when Shen Jiansheng stabbed the head of the guard with a short blade, and quickly formed a circle to prevent Shen Jiansheng from escaping.

Shen Jiansheng's short blade collided with the guard's chief's long sword, and he quickly retreated outside.Everyone wanted to stop him, but Shen Daxia's lightness kung fu is also one of the best in the Jianghu, how can these people stop him.The guard leader hesitated for a moment, and shouted loudly, "Five people follow me, and the rest guard!"

The scene was suddenly chaotic, and Cheng Mubei heard the sound of porcelain falling to the ground and shattering.He hurriedly took advantage of the chaotic moment to get close to Zi Sanglan's room. Through the wooden door, he could hear Zi Sanglan's rapid heartbeat... People who have done bad things will always be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.

Cheng Mubei was not a ghost, so he pushed the door open and squeezed in before everyone could react.Zi Sanglan sat on the bed and stared at Cheng Mubei with wide-eyed eyes, her expression terrified and ferocious.

Seeing his lips move, Cheng Mubei quickly sealed his dumb acupoint before he was about to shout.Zi Sanglan opened his mouth wide, but found that he could not make a sound. He stared at Cheng Mubei with tears in his eyes, and his whole body became stiff with fear.

Cheng Mubei raised the corners of his lips, "Master Zisang, long time no see." He deliberately lowered his voice, his words were obviously teasing, but they sounded like greetings.But Zi Sang Lan, who was so frightened, couldn't feel it anymore. He raised his hand tremblingly and shook it in panic.

"Master Zisang is greeting me?" Cheng Mubei smiled even colder.

Zi Sanglan finally couldn't hold back anymore, tears rolled down in a blink of an eye, and she whimpered slightly.Cheng Mubei couldn't help seeing him like that, his eyes turned cold, Zi Sanglan didn't have the guts to fight Jiubeige... He must be lying because someone behind him forced him.

"Young Master Zisang just nodded and shook his head," Cheng Mubei said, "If you lie, you will definitely be killed by me in here without anyone noticing."
