Chapter 31 Asking for directions [Seeking recommendation tickets and subscription]
"Well, Master Meng is young, but his martial arts are extraordinary, and he has created a huge foundation. He can be called a dragon among men!"
"Shao Lingzhou of the Bamboo Flower Gang only knows how to fight for power. How can he be compared with Master Meng?"
The woman in red smiled sweetly.
Hong Fu Nu and Miss Li Xiuning came to Yangzhou this time to contact her cousin Meng Qianlong. If the lady can form a marriage relationship with cousin Meng Qianlong, the Li family will have a great helper!
To know.
What the young lady was attracted to was not only Meng Qianlong's outstanding talent and the Qianlong Society under his command, but more importantly, his father Meng Rang was the leader of the rebel army entrenched in the Changbai Mountain area!
He has tens of thousands of soldiers under his command!
If such a force were to unite with the Li family, the power of the Li family would surely increase greatly!
"Ah."
Li Xiuning smiled slightly, led the horse and walked forward.
North city east.
Qin Shuang wore a grey Qianlong Club robe with a 'circle' embroidered on the chest with a dragon shadow inside, and a flying knife robe embroidered by Yun'er on the outside. He was patrolling the streets with twenty valiant Qianlong Club disciples, taking in the scenery from time to time.
at the same time.
He discovered that the proficiency in the 'Art of Commanding Troops' on the panel was slowly increasing.
at this time.
Behind Qin Shuang, a member of the audience wearing a Qianlong robe glanced at his back, then lowered his head, with the corners of his mouth raised, revealing an imperceptible sinister smile.
"Someone is hostile to me?"
Qin Shuang was walking in front of the patrol team. He suddenly looked back and saw a member of the team behind him with his head down, and his eyes suddenly showed a thoughtful look.
After his flying knife technique was perfected, his eyesight, physical strength and mental perception improved greatly!
The man was two meters away, but he could sense the hostile gaze from him instantly!
"This person has a ghost!"
Qin Shuang narrowed his eyes. Just now, that feeling came from this attendant. He remembered that this attendant was called Wang Lin and had many pockmarks on his face, so he had an impression of him.
Qin Shuang pretended that everything was fine and led the congregation forward.
Not long after.
Then we arrived at the North-South Long Street.
This is a prosperous street. The street is about 15 feet wide and paved with bluestone slabs. Both sides are lined with food stalls, fruit stalls, grocery stalls, cloth shops, wine shops, tea houses, peddlers, and pedestrians coming and going, making it extremely noisy.
At this time, two riders came slowly from the end of the long street.
The horses under his crotch were one brown and one white, both quite handsome. On the horses were two extremely beautiful women, one in a red dress and red cape, like a red cloud, looking heroic and valiant.
The other one had snow-white skin, picturesque features, a sword on her waist, a green suit and a beige cloak, and had the temperament of a woman who was as brave as a man.
The appearance of these two riders instantly attracted the attention of everyone on the street!
The woman in the beige cloak had clear eyes. When she saw Qin Shuang, who was wearing the robes of the Hidden Dragon Society and leading a team to patrol the city, her eyes lit up. She immediately stepped forward, dismounted, clasped her fists, and asked very politely, "Excuse me, brother! I am Li Xiuning from Taiyuan. What is your name?"
"Li Xiuning?"
Hearing the words of the woman in front of him, Qin Shuang couldn't help but look at the woman in front of him, feeling very surprised.
As far as he knew, Li Xiuning was a woman who was as capable as any man. Although she was a woman, she was able to recruit heroes to work for the Li family.
It can be said that Li Xiuning made an indispensable contribution to the Li family’s success!
just.
Isn’t Li Xiuning in Taiyuan?
Why did you come to Yangzhou?
Qin Shuang had many thoughts in his mind, but he didn't show them on the surface. He just clasped his fists politely. "I am Qin Shuang from Qianlong Club. I wonder if Miss Li has any advice for me?"
"It's like this. I came from Taiyuan to visit my relatives. I went to see Meng Qianlong, the leader of Qianlong Society. I just arrived in Yangzhou and I'm unfamiliar with the place. I happened to see Brother Qin and his party patrolling the city. I wonder if you could send someone to help pass on the message."
Li Xiuning smiled slightly. She had only met her cousin Meng Qianlong when she was four or five years old.
I had just arrived and the North City of Yangzhou was very large, so I didn't know whether my cousin was at the main temple. It would take too much time for me and Hongfu to look for him. We happened to meet the members of the Qianlong Society who were patrolling the city. If we could get them to lead the way to see Meng Qianlong, it would save us a lot of trouble.
"Visiting the leader? Who are you to our leader?"
Hearing Li Xiuning's words, Qin Shuang's heart moved and he asked.
"Master Meng is my cousin."
Li Xiuning smiled slightly and said.
Qin Shuang was very surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Li Xiuning was actually a relative of Meng Qianlong. He immediately clasped his fists and said, "Miss Li, I have a city patrol mission. How about I send someone to take you to the headquarters?"
"In that case, thank you, Brother Qin!"
Li Xiuning nodded.
Qin Shuang suddenly pointed at the pockmarked Wang Lin behind him and said, "Wang Lin, take the two girls to the headquarters, and then come back to meet us."
Wang Lin obviously didn't expect the leader to call on him, so he immediately clasped his fists respectfully. "Yes, Leader Qin!"
Under the guidance of Wang Lin, Li Xiuning and her two daughters walked to the end of the long street.
"We have to find an opportunity to get rid of Wang Lin."
Qin Shuang glanced at Wang Lin's back, and a murderous intent surged in his heart. The rules of the Qianlong Society stated that "brothers" could not kill each other. Once someone attacked a brother, the punishment would be extremely severe. The only way to attack was at night when no one was around!
It's okay if there is no evidence.
Qin Shuang and his men continued to patrol the city until the early morning, when they were replaced by another leader, Zhang Yuan.
Early in the morning.
Qin Shuang handed over the city patrol mission to Zhang Yuan and did not go back. Instead, he secretly followed Wang Lin to a place with two blue brick and tile houses on the bank of the canal, five miles away from Qianlonghui's residence.
Because Wang Lin's home was nearby, he did not live in the dormitory. He went back home at night and reported for duty during the day.
The tile-roofed house where Wang Lin lived had a small stone courtyard at the door, with a row of neighbors on each side. There were rows of paulownia trees growing at the door, and their huge treetops covered half of the house.
Wang Lin opened the door and Qin Shuang was about to follow him in when a man next door came out to urinate. Qin Shuang frowned. During this delayed time, Wang Lin had already opened the door, entered the house and locked the door.
"Strange. More than a month ago, that bastard was clearly hit by two Black Wind Palms from me, but not only did he not die, his martial arts skills actually became even more powerful!"
"He's very good at throwing knives now. I'm no match for him in a head-on attack."
Wang Lin returned to the house, lit the dim oil lamp, trimmed the wick with scissors, and frowned deeply.
This goes on.
I'm afraid I can't complete your mission.
"This kid has suddenly become so good at flying knives. I'm afraid he got some opportunity. Let me send a message to you and ask you to send someone with high martial arts skills. If he can get his opportunity, that would be even better!"
Wang Lin took a deep breath, took out a pen and paper, wrote a letter, stuffed it into a bamboo tube, packed up, and went out with the bamboo tube.
His current situation is that he is lurking in the Qianlong Society, waiting for an opportunity to kill Qin Shuang and report the situation of the Qianlong Society back. Using carrier pigeons is too risky, so he and the young master agreed to deliver messages by stuffing bamboo tubes with letters at three fixed places.
After the letter was put away, the young master would send someone to pick it up every day.
Qin Shuang hid behind the paulownia tree outside Wang Lin's residence. Seeing Xiaojie's neighbor return to the house, she was about to pry open the door, but saw Wang Lin actually open the door and tiptoe out. With an idea in her mind, she immediately followed him.
It would be more covert to kill him in a deserted place.
Wang Lin sneaked all the way to the canal five miles away from his home, found a crevice under a willow tree, and stuffed a thumb-thick bamboo tube into it.
"Wang Lin, I'm going to ask you this, otherwise, you will die!"
At this moment, Wang Lin felt severe pain in his arms and legs. He looked down and found that his hands and feet were each pierced by a flying knife. At the same time, a cold voice sounded from two feet away!
