Chapter 468 Who is the sheep and who is the tiger?
Hearing Ye Zixun's curious inquiry, Zuo Yu's smile faded and she frowned slightly: "As I expected before, Ning Yi and Ning Liheng are indeed indigenous time travelers and not our fellow countrymen, but I think it's okay. what about you?"
Ye Zixun and Li Yun looked at each other.
The former nodded and said with a smile: "I have no objection. Where is Brother Li?"
Li Yun thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't know the novel version of Ning Yi very well... Let's take a look again!"
…
…
In the dim courtyard, after Ning Yi and Lu Hongti had a low conversation, they realized that Lu Hongti had come to see him specially.
This reason was somewhat beyond his expectation.
After all, Lu Liang had come a long way to contact just one person, so it was not worth her trip.
"This year, as you said, the village has been running very well... We have contacted merchants on both sides, allowing them to borrow roads from Luliang Mountain, except for supplies related to the war... "
Lu Hongti spoke softly and told all about the development of Qingmuzhai in Luliang Mountain over the past year.
Ning Yi nodded slightly when he heard this, knowing that they were indeed operating according to his original plan.
"... Tian Hu is still reaching out to us. In March, he invited the village leaders to discuss matters. Seven of the village leaders who went there were killed. Most of those villages surrendered to Tian Hu, but fortunately, we are still there for the time being. It was not affected, but some people were dissatisfied and came to vote for me."
"In the past few months, the stockade has grown bigger and bigger. Tian Hu probably has no intention of taking action against me for the time being. I heard that he thinks that we are just business people, and he looks down on us."
"But you also said before that if the village suddenly becomes too big, and the... ideological work cannot keep up, it will be very troublesome. Grandpa Liang also said this is the case, and then asked me to go south to Jiangning to find you."
Speaking of this, Lu Hongti paused, looked at Su Tan'er's room, and chuckled: "Originally, I wanted to take you back to Luliang."
Ning Yi understood that Lu Hongti had lost the confidence and certainty to continue running the business, so he wanted to take him back, and he also laughed: "Forcing him to go to the end of the mountain, this is..."
"I'm not forcing you to go to Liangshan, but to go to Luliang."
Lu Hongti corrected him seriously.
"But when I went to Jiangning, you were not at Su's house, so I went to the home of your confidante, Nie Yunzhu. Looking at her condition at the time, I thought you were dead. Later, when I showed up to ask, I found out that you were trapped in Hangzhou. No news at all..."
Ning Yi whispered: "How is she?"
"I was just worried about you and that girl Yuan Jin'er. It's quite interesting. I said I would protect you, but she didn't believe it. I almost knocked down a tree across the river before they felt relieved. Later I went south and met you. My wife, just pretend to be hunted and sneak into her team - it will be easier to find you with her..."
Ning Yi nodded and said: "I can't thank you enough."
Lu Hongti glanced at the side room and whispered: "Then in Huzhou, your wife and I met these three masters. Although it was a mistake, I always felt that they came directly to our door."
Ning Yi smiled and said: "You mean, their purpose is not to assassinate Fang La, but to come for me?"
Lu Hongti looked at him steadily for a while, shook his head and said, "Although I do have this suspicion, every time I think about it, I always find it incredible. After all, with the martial arts of these three people, they are really overqualified to deal with you."
Ning Yi smiled, glanced at the side room next to him, and said pointedly: "Maybe they are not here to deal with me."
Lu Hongti frowned and said, "I can't be here to help you. Do you have any friendship in the past?"
"...Who knows!"
Ning Yi smiled and did not go further on this topic: "When you have time, tell me about Lu Liang's situation. I will make one or more plans according to the situation and see what happens in the future..."
Lu Hongti nodded without saying anything.
…
…
When we came out of the alley, it was already very late.
Su Tan'er and Lu Hongti took Ning Yi to the intersection, and then stood in the darkness and watched the carriage go away.
On the way back to Ba Dao Camp, Ning Yi sat in the carriage and looked at Zuo Yu and Ye Zixun in front of him with a strange expression.
After a long silence, Ning Yi said: "You two, please think about it. The Ba Dao Camp is the most elite unit under Fang La's command. The two heroes came to assassinate Fang La and sneaking into the Ba Dao Camp is tantamount to committing a personal crime. Danger, sheep in tiger's den..."
"Ha ha!"
Zuo Yu smiled when he heard this, interrupted Ning Yi and said: "Brother Ning, please find out who is the sheep and who is the tiger?"
Hearing the familiar sentence again, Ning Yi raised his eyebrows, suppressed the throbbing in his heart, and chuckled: "Since Brother Zuo is so confident, Ning will not say more. Seeing how many people escorted my home all the way. For the sake of my wife, I can help, but this is an issue of identity..."
Ye Zixun smiled and said: "Of course Brother Ning has the final say!"
"Okay!" Ning Yi slapped his thigh and said excitedly, "In this case, the younger brother is brave enough to say that the three of them swore sworn brother at the same time. When the Ba Dao camp asks about it, they will say that the three brothers and I met in Jiangning, and we are very happy. We share the same feelings, so we become brothers.”
"I heard that I fell in Hangzhou this time, so I came all the way just to rescue me."
"Of course, in order to better complete the lie, we still have to compare the confessions, especially about the process of sworn friendship and the details of the friendship. We must discuss it more and there can be no mistakes..."
Ning Yi kept talking about the fictitious past.
Zuo Yu and Ye Zixun across from each other looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces.
This Ning Liheng was really rude and wanted to tie the three of them to himself.
"But we are going to assassinate Fang La after all." Zuo Yu said with a smile, "If the incident happens, aren't you afraid of being implicated?"
"It doesn't matter!" Ning Yi's expression did not change at all, but he said with a smile, "If I was still in Hangzhou when the incident happened, I would have said that you kidnapped my wife from Huzhou, and I was coerced and had to help you."
"As long as I kill you without knowing your true purpose, your life will not be in danger."
Zuo Yu raised his eyebrows and said: "With such confidence, it seems that Brother Ning has an extraordinary position in the Ba Dao camp!"
Ning Yi smiled and cupped his hands, and said modestly: "Just average, third in the whole battalion."
After saying that, Ning Yi looked at the faces of Zuo Yu and Ye Zixun, blinked, and said: "Then...is it settled?"
Zuo Yu and Ye Zixun looked at each other, with smiles on their faces, and raised their hands to knock on the car window.
"Hey, brother, what do you say?"
"...take good care of your fourth brother."
Li Yun's faint voice came from the front of the carriage.
Ning Yi had a smile on his face, straightened his robes, and respectfully handed over his hands.
"My younger brother, Ning Liheng, has met my eldest brother, second brother, and third brother!"
"Good brother, no gift!"
Zuo Yu smiled and helped him up: "Come on, let's finish the details of the story..."
…
…
In the spacious hall, the doors and windows are open, and the sunlight shines in from the window and falls on the big bed like a dragon chair.
This large bed has a backrest and armrests, but no upper frame. Because it is too big, it can only be called a bed.
There was originally a gauze curtain hanging in front of the bed, but at this moment, the gauze curtain was opened, revealing the big bed behind it, as well as a desk with many slips, tripods and incense burners. A powerful giant blade.
A figure was sitting beside the bed, holding the handle of the giant blade in his right hand, frowning and looking at the four people in the hall.
On both sides of the lobby, there were many big men holding long knives. Each of the big men had more or less scars on their bodies. They had a solemn temperament and a soul-stirring ferocious light in their eyes.
If an ordinary person is stared at by these big men, he or she will be sweating a little, but if he is not frightened to the point of excrement and urine, he will be considered a hero.
But the four people in the hall, faced with the fierceness and murderous energy in the hall, still seemed extremely calm and calm.
The young man in white shirt who looked a bit dissolute even turned his back to everyone's malicious eyes and yawned out of boredom.
"Commander, you mean that these three people are all your sworn brothers in the world. They heard that you fell in Hangzhou and there was no news, so they broke into our Ba Dao camp single-handedly and wanted to rescue you?"
"Correction!"
The handsome young master raised a finger and said seriously: "It's three guns and three horses, not one man."
The big man holding a long knife next to him laughed ferociously: "How presumptuous! What do you think you have to say when the commander is talking?!"
With that said, the man was about to draw his sword and teach this ungrateful young master a lesson.
The girl holding the giant blade on the big bed frowned, and just glanced at the man, then told him to stop and save his life.
The girl's brows relaxed and she turned to look at Ning Yi: "Three guns and three horses, is there such a thing as that?"
Ning Yi had a strange look on his face: "If you say it as an idiom, there really isn't one, but the way it is said... there are no taboos, it's natural."
The girl nodded and turned to look at the most handsome young man: "Young Master Zuo - that's what he is called. Since you are here for Military Advisor Ning, why didn't you take him away instead of staying in our Ba Dao Camp? "
Zuo Yu looked helpless: "I have no choice. My fourth brother doesn't want to leave, saying that he has a great cause that has not yet been accomplished. I swore in front of Guan Gong that I would die in the same year, the same month and the same day, so even if I don't want to, I can only let him do it." I want to stay and work with him."
When talking about Guan Gong, Zuo Yu changed his previous appearance and solemnly raised his hands towards the void.
The Ba Dao Camp are all people who use swords, and they have been around the world. They take righteousness as their top priority, and they respect Guan Gong the most. After hearing these words, they all stood in awe.
The man who had just spoken rudely to Zuo Yu also changed his expression, and his eyes suddenly became kind when he looked at Zuo Yu.
A smile appeared on the girl's face, and she turned to look at Ning Yi at the front: "What he said...is it true?"
Ning Yi's face straightened: "Of course, we have a deep friendship as brothers. To save each other, we will go to the mountains of swords and the sea of fire..."
"That's not what I'm talking about." The girl interrupted Ning Yi's words, looked at him steadily and said, "You really don't want to leave?"
