Travel Notes of Tianlong

Murong and his entourage have now returned to the house prepared by Eunuch Chen in advance. Except for Eunuch Murong and Chen Chongying, everyone else is healing their injuries in order to recover quickly.

Among them, the Chang brothers were the most seriously injured. Jin Peng suffered serious injuries on both arms and was taken care of by his sister Su Niang. As for Bao and Feng, they only needed to rest for a while to recover.

Only the young master Murong Young Master and Eunuch Chen were with the old master, but the atmosphere seemed a bit solemn.

"Father?"The half-paralyzed Master Murong shouted again when his father ignored him,"How is your injury?"At this time, Old Murong looked back at his son, but his eyes were not as loving as his father's, but rather disdainful and disgusting.

"Baby..." Half of the collarbone was broken by Tang Hao. This is not an easy-to-heal injury, and even after the injury is healed, it will be difficult to return to its original state."My lord, that Wufeng's attack was extremely heavy, and it seems that he is disabled."Unexpectedly, Eunuch Chen was not polite at all. He took off the young master's clothes and checked them before replying.

"Humph, trash," I didn't expect that old Murong didn't care about his son at all. Could it be that he was resurrected from the dead and returned to his prime and wanted to conquer the world and become the emperor himself? Sensing that the atmosphere was wrong, Master Murong showed fear on his face. Now It hurt so much that he couldn't even move, let alone run away.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of a mechanism, and a wall in the room moved. A secret room appeared, and a man wearing a mask walked out of the darkness.

"Congratulations to father on your great achievement! Unexpectedly, the visitor also called old Murong his father,"Who are you!" ? Mr. Murong was greatly surprised,"Humph, I am you!""The man took off his mask and revealed an appearance that was exactly the same as Mr. Murong's.

"This... this..." First he saw his father come back to life, then his father returned to youth again, and now he saw a person who looked exactly like him. Mr. Murong's brain was about to explode.

"If you don’t understand, get on your way." The man stopped explaining that it was just one palm that killed Mr. Murong.

"Come on, drag it out and burn it!"Eunuch Chen seemed not to be surprised at all as if he had known the inside story for a long time, and ordered his servants to dispose of the body.

It turned out that this masked man was the real young master of the Murong family, but his father had been there since the day he was born. Planning to find a substitute for him.

The Murong family had been dormant for a long time to prepare for the restoration of the country. It was not until the Zhezong period of the Song Dynasty that the royal family and the empress were at odds and the old and new factions in the court were arguing. Old Murong saw the revival. It was the best time for him to succeed.

So Old Murong started his plan on the day his son was born. First, he won over some officials in the court and used them as a springboard to hook up with Emperor Zhezong's younger brother, who was the then Prince Jing. , and during the time spent with him, he constantly hinted that this person would replace the frail and sick Zhezong, and even took his own son as a"hostage" to Prince Jing, and promised to send his son to the palace after he is ten years old to serve as the internal support of the Murong family..

Secondly, Old Murong also ordered Eunuch Chen to search for male infants from all over the country to pretend to be his son, and treat this stand-in as the real only son of the Murong family in Gusu in all matters including practicing martial arts and teaching arts. Therefore, except for Old Murong and Chen Chongying, No one outside knows that the current young master is actually a fake. It's a pity that this person didn't know who he was until his death.

Recovering the country by relying solely on those martial arts people is naturally a fool's errand, so Old Murong is determined to disintegrate the Song Dynasty. Split this Central Plains country, and now that Emperor Zhezong is seriously ill and his body is getting worse day by day, old Murong thinks that the opportunity has come. Coupled with the four countries that originally wanted to incite, the day of the restoration of the Yan Dynasty is just around the corner.

However, everything None of their plans expected to encounter the unknown factor Tang Hao. Now their plan needs to make some necessary adjustments.

"Lord, young master, old slave, please retire."Eunuch Chen was very discerning and withdrew out of the room.

Murong and his son were the only ones left in the room."How is Prince Jing doing lately?"Old Murong didn't waste any time and directly asked about the implementation of his son's plan,"Back to father, Prince Jing is currently going to Bianliang to meet the emperor in response to the imperial edict." The real Master Murong responded eloquently. Judging from this man's temperament The appearance seems to be much better than that of the counterfeit.

"Well, in recent years, you and I have been running around and have finally become a group of dead soldiers. From now on, the plan to restore the country has reached the most important step." Old Murong turned back to look at his son,"I went to Tubo and Liao for my father. You go to Xixia and invite them to attack the Song Dynasty together when King Jing is in trouble."I have to say that if this plan is really implemented, the Song Dynasty today may not be able to withstand the onslaught of the four countries.

"Just that Wu Feng?"Although Mr. Murong has been wandering around the palace and his own power and not having contact with people in the world, he has heard of Wu Feng's name."This person's strength is unfathomable and he is really difficult to deal with. Try not to have a direct conflict with him in the future. , just after we start the uprising, no matter how strong he is, how can he be able to defeat the armies of the four countries!"Speaking of Wu Feng, old Murong also had a headache, but what they were doing now was a strategic matter, and they just couldn't afford to offend those who stayed far away.

The next day, the father and son called everyone together to assign tasks. The real Master Murong They also specially dressed up to hide from others. After all, the injuries of the dead man could not be improved overnight.

Before starting, they took inventory of the losses, but after careful calculation, except for the handle that was first broken and then twisted into Apart from Ma Hua's sword, the Murong family really didn't suffer any big losses.

"You need to recuperate for two months. Chongying will come to pick you up after two months," Old Murong immediately ordered."As for my son's serious injury, just follow me and I will treat you personally."He wanted to take his son away, so he naturally found an excuse for him to leave and go to Xixia to lobby.

At this point, everyone in the Murong family temporarily withdrew from the disputes in the world.

"Brother!"Back at Shaolin, brothers Tang Hao and several others greeted Brother Xiao,"How is your adoptive father's injury?"They first asked about Senior Xiao's situation,"It's okay, the second brother's elixir works very quickly." Brother Xiao has not closed his eyes all night and has been delivering internal energy to his father. Now he looks very haggard.

"As long as you have nothing to do," their brothers were not idle while they were waiting for Brother Xiao. Mr. Duan received permission from the abbot, Master Xuanku, to temporarily place the princess and her two sisters in a monastery in a secluded place in the back mountain. Xuan Xuzi Then he negotiated with Master Xuandu to deprive the old monster Xingxiu of all his skills and imprison him in a Shaolin dungeon so that he could never return to the world.

As for Xuan Xuzi’s biological mother Ye Erniang, because of the evil things she had done before, even though she had done it for a reason. Still unable to cover up her guilt, Xuan Xuzi, who understood the righteousness well, did not excuse her. Under the public discussion of Master Xuanku and other martial arts colleagues, Ye Erniang was punished to lose her martial arts and have one arm cut off, and was taken back to Xiaoyao by Xuan Xuzi. Pai Yongyong could not take a step down to Piaomiao Peak.

The joy of mother and son being reunited made Na Ye Erniang not care about any punishment at all. Instead, she kept kowtowing to thank everyone in the martial arts world for sparing her life.

But Tang Hao spent the night with Master Xuanku and Taoist Priest Ziyang. After discussing with others how to deal with the Murong family, they finally agreed that they should go to Yanziwu, Suzhou to find out what was going on. This task naturally fell on Tang Hao.

"Are brothers going to Yanziwu alone?"Brother Xiao has no ambition to be an official. He longs to go back to the days when he was happy in the world."Yes, brother, although the father and son of the Murong family have bad intentions, what they have to do is too big, and it cannot be done overnight."We're here," Tang Hao said and glanced at his fourth brother, Mr. Duan,"Fourth brother, you have always been in love with Miss Wang of Luluo Villa, why don't you go with your second brother?""Tang Hao's words were exactly what Mr. Duan wanted, and he immediately agreed.

"As for eldest brother," Tang Hao thought for a moment,"I believe you have made arrangements for Daliao Na and there is no need to return home for the time being."Tang Hao guessed right. Although he had a great reputation, Emperor Yelu Zhengde of the Liao Dynasty did not hand over military affairs to Brother Xiao. It was enough for him to have a deputy in the palace of the South Palace of the Liao Kingdom to handle some chores. After all, he suffered a loss once. Now the Liao Emperor completely holds the military power in his own hands

"Brother Xiao knows me," Brother Xiao laughed. If he hadn't been in the Shaolin Temple, he would have gathered his brothers to drink together."So I want to ask my eldest brother to escort the princess and others back to Dali after my adoptive father recovers?"

"It's feasible," Brother Xiao nodded,"The third brother's mother has just been seriously injured and will need to be raised for a few days. Fortunately, Master Xuanku is kind enough to allow us to stay here for a while."He also knew about Xuanxu's mother-in-law.

"Indeed, if my fourth brother and I go for a walk, you don’t have to come with us for family reunion." Tang Hao was carefree and naturally took on more things,"When you return to Dali, brother, you It’s time to arrange the wedding with Shuang Fei. My fourth brother and I will definitely come back to enjoy your wedding banquet."If both Brother Xiao and Ruan Shuangfei have family witnesses, it is the most suitable time to get married.

"Hahahaha, little brother, congratulations to big brother!"Xuan Xuzi and Duan Gongzi quickly congratulated

"Then thank you second brother," Brother Xiao never hesitated and readily agreed.

Three days later, after ensuring that Father Xiao and Ye Erniang were safe, Tang Hao said goodbye to everyone and set off with his fourth brother, only accompanying him There was also a young couple with them.

The four of them and four horses galloped all day and arrived at a small town. They saw that it was getting late and asked,"Mr. Tang, why don't you stay here for the night today and hit the road tomorrow?""Tang Hao suggested that traveling with them was Tang Guanfeng, the chief disciple of the Tang Sect in Sichuan, and his wife Liu Piaopiao.

"It all depends on the owner of the village," Tang Guanfeng is not ambiguous. He is one of the few martial arts heroes who stayed in Shaolin. It is said that he came out to take charge of the family business smoothly, but the real purpose behind it is as long as he does not tell Of course no one will know

"It's nice here. I'll stay here tonight." Tang Hao picked a clean-looking inn and walked in."Honeykeeper, there are three upper rooms. Pick a private room and prepare the food and wine. We'll be here soon."After that, he generously threw out a piece of silver. Along the way, he had already made it clear to others that he would be responsible for all the food and drinks in the hotel. Anyway, Tang Hao had more game coins than he could use up and they were increasing every day. These are nothing at all.

The Tangmen couple were a little embarrassed at first, but it was Master Duan who persuaded them so that they could accept Mr. Wu Feng’s kindness with peace of mind.

"Everyone, after you have rest, go to the private room and talk." Tang Hao took the key to his room and went upstairs first. Because of his strong strength, he never cared about keeping his wealth private. As long as conditions allowed, he would definitely choose the best one. After a while, the four of them came to the quiet and elegant room, and the store also placed some famous local side dishes and wines on the table.

"Let's chat while we eat." Tang Hao was not polite at all. He sat down and filled the wine glasses for everyone to eat and drink happily."Your Excellency, the owner of the village, we will be arriving at Yanziwu in about two days. What are your plans? Tang Guanfeng asked,"I don't have any plans. I just want to see if the Murong family is still the same as before after passing the Shaolin Temple.""

"The owner of the village is so domineering," Mrs. Tang Liu Piaopiao was originally a heroine from the central Sichuan area. She was extremely skilled in the nine-section whip kung fu. She and Tang Guanfeng were also regarded as a couple of mandarin ducks, and they were quite famous in the Sichuan area.

"Hahahaha, that’s what my second brother is like, he’s very capable," Mr. Duan admired this sworn brother from the bottom of his heart and couldn’t help but praise him again and again.

"I have a suggestion," Tang Guanfeng said."If Yanziwu is still open to welcome guests as usual, we might as well stay there for a few days to explore the situation before making any plans."

"Young Master Tang is right, they don't have anything to fear from us," Tang Hao nodded,"But doesn't it matter if you and your wife have been away from the house for a long time?"There are rumors in the world that the Tang Sect in Central Shu is divided into two factions and are vying for the position of the next sect leader.This chief disciple is also the grandson of Grandma Tang, the current head of the Tang Sect. The other is Tang Guanfeng’s uncle Tang Yifei. It is said that this person has made a lot of money with poison kung fu and is a radical.

"Master, don't worry. This time my wife and I went out to Shu, we also heard that my third uncle might be colluding with the Murong family. Besides, with my grandma in charge, it's hard to say who will win and who will lose in next year's passing ceremony."Tang Guanfeng is quite confident.

But on second thought, since they dare to go out, they are naturally not afraid of other people making small moves behind their backs, but Tang Hao is not interested in the power struggles within other sects.

"Second brother, I will go to Mantuo Villa tomorrow first," Mr. Duan said, holding up his wine glass,"Go and try to bring that Miss Wang back."Tang Hao originally didn't expect this foster brother to do anything. He just brought him out just to let him meet his sweetheart.

"oh? Mr. Duan actually fell in love with the Murong family's prospective daughter-in-law?"Miss Wang was accused of marrying the Murong family since she was a child. Everyone in the Murong family knew about it. Liu Piaopiao was very surprised when she heard about it,"Hahaha, my fair lady and gentleman are so jealous. You two don't know anything. My sworn brother has lost his soul. Got hooked."Tang Hao not only did not explain, but also made a joke.

"Hahaha, for children in the world, men are unmarried and women are unmarried, everything is possible."Tang Guanfeng looked at his wife tenderly as he spoke. They had only been married for less than a year.

"The two eldest brothers and sister-in-law made fun of me." Mr. Duan scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed,"What are you afraid of? That kid Murong was ruined by me., Besides, their family is going to commit rebellion. Do you want your Miss Wang to be labeled as a traitor to her family in the future?"Tang Hao drank all the wine in the cup.

The next day, Mr. Duan said goodbye to everyone and went on the road alone, while Tang Hao and the couple continued to rush to Yanziwu.

"This..." After another day of traveling, the three of them arrived at Yanziwu, but the scene in front of them shocked them. The original unique villa had already been destroyed, as if it had been invaded by someone, as if Murong Villa had been destroyed. Declined for a long time

"What you did is really amazing." Tang Hao shook his head. In this case, the clues were completely cut off."In this case, why don't you two go back to Shuzhong first and look for opportunities?"Tang Hao also didn't expect that old Murong to be so decisive in his work,"That's all I can do. If I find out any information, I will send someone to contact the owner of the village."It's useless to stay. Tang Guanfeng and his wife bowed their hands to Tang Hao and left.

"Then, I will go back to Wuxi City and wait for that boy." Before leaving, Young Master Duan made it clear that he did not want his second brother to interfere, and the two made an appointment to meet in Wuxi and then return to Dali together, regardless of success or failure.
