C226 Doubtful

Nalan Yue was indeed the legendary kind of beauty. She had a pair of big bright eyes, her face was pale and red, and her tender skin was so tender that it could be broken. Her graceful figure danced and she walked like a willow tree for three months. Every moment she walked was filled with a bit of charm.

Murong Ke was completely immersed in Nalan Yue's beauty. He had almost forgotten the identity of the person in front of him. At this moment, Nalan Kang coughed twice and said, "Brother Murong. I think you have forgotten about me. " Murong Ke turned around and saw Nalan Kang. With an embarrassed smile, he said, "So it's Brother Nalan. Your younger sister is really a natural beauty. It was really too surprising. "

Nalan Kang smiled and said, "What you did not expect. There's a lot more. However, the matter that I want to discuss with you is something that the Nalan family needs to solve urgently. I think brother Murong won't break the bridge after crossing the river, right?"

Murong Ke stopped smiling. He knew what Nalan Kang was talking about. Nalan Yue smiled and walked towards the door. " Alright, alright. You guys can go talk about things. I have no interest in it. I think I should go out for a walk. "

The exquisite laughter had hooked Murong Ke's heart. Murong Ke watched Nalan Yue's figure with his eyes until she disappeared from his sight. He slowly turned to Nalan Kang and smiled. "Let's talk inside. "

Nalan Kang understood what Murong Ke meant. This matter was indeed a little funny to talk about now. Because back then, they had worked together to take down Gusu City. Everything was part of their plan. Nalan Kang had also gotten rid of the Lion Masked Man, who was the most important person to Elder Xiao, while he had transformed into the Lion Masked Man.

Who would have thought that Young Master Wuyue would appear out of nowhere? As the second largest sect in the Central Plains, the Devil Cult naturally wouldn't dare to confront him face to face. Whether it was the power or territory, the Devil Cult couldn't compare with such a big sect.

After all, it was already a miracle that the devil religion could continue existing. Twenty years ago, the devil religion should have been destroyed by the joint forces of Dugu Kuang and Murong Bai, only leaving behind some remnants. Now, it seemed like it wasn't easy for the Devil Cult to have such a scale.

Under the pressure of the Wuyue Sect, Elder Xiao of the Devil Cult took the initiative to withdraw from this conflict. Therefore, it was effortless for Murong Ke to obtain the entire Gusu City.

Then, Nalan Kang's existence became very awkward. After agreeing to take down the Gusu City, The things that were given to him could no longer be kept. The two of them had worked together for a lot of things in the past. Therefore, they knew each other's secrets. Now, Murong Ke had appeared in the entire Gusu City as a positive image. As the lord of a city, he naturally wouldn't want others to know about his stain. Nalan Kang was a nail in his eyes.

Murong Ke drank a mouthful of tea and didn't speak first. He was waiting for Nalan Kang to speak first. Nalan Kang tactfully nodded. "Brother Mu Rong, this place is really magnificent. I haven't seen such a magnificent place in a long time. Compared to this place, the mansion of the Nalan family is nothing. "

Murong Ke sneered and said, "Brother Na Lan, don't keep me in suspense. I know that your life isn't good right now, but you didn't fulfill the promise we made. So, why are you looking for me now?"

Nalan Kang frowned and said, "As expected of Brother Mu Rong. He always likes to be straightforward when speaking, so I won't keep you in suspense anymore. The Nalan family has been doing business for generations, and all we rely on is our family's inheritance. Now, it seems like our family's foundation is going to be eaten up soon. "

Murong Ke pretended to hesitate and said, "Who is it that dares to touch Brother Na Lan's family business? Could it be the remnants of the devil religion? I don't think so. If there were still people from the Devil Cult in Gusu City, then he absolutely wouldn't dare to show his face. Then who is it?"

Nalan Kang was silent for a long time, then he sighed and said: "I think brother Murong should know who it is, right? I will pretend that I didn't say anything about the agreement we made earlier. Now, I only hope that the foundation of our family won't be robbed. Besides that, give the Nalan family enough authority to enter and exit the Gusu City freely. "

After Nalan Kang finished speaking, Murong Ke didn't answer him immediately. He just looked at him indifferently. Nalan Kang felt goosebumps all over his body. At this time, Murong Ke smiled and said, "How would I know who took away the Nalan family's property? Unless you sell those properties on your own accord. As for the freedom to enter and exit, I didn't stop anyone from entering and leaving Gusu City freely. The Gusu City will only become more and more open-minded, and will never become more and more isolated. "

Nalan Kang let out a cold laugh and sighed. "That's right, the Gusu City is becoming more and more open. But Brother Mu Rong seems to be more and more strict with businessmen, right? Right now, entering and leaving the Gusu, if we don't check it three to five times, it won't work at all, right? I don't know how much effort and money it will take to pay respects to these doorkeepers. "

Murong Ke shook his head. " Businessmen are also people. I will not favor one another. But you also know who is the most hardworking person right now. He is a person who has gone through hardships. Businessmen are people who do not know how to endure hardship. Not only does he not know how to endure hardship, but he also knows how to play dirty tricks. Businessmen nowadays are getting harder and harder to discipline. Especially those rich people. Of course, I'm not referring to the Nalan family. Those people are used to being arrogant. They don't take me, the new city lord seriously. "

He took two sips of tea and continued," So, in order to comfort the people in the city, I have to strengthen the investigation of the merchants. Of course, since Brother Nalan has spoken today, as long as it's the caravan of the Nalan family, the investigation will be reduced. "

Nalan Kang nodded and said, "It is still brother Murong who is loyal to his friends. Since brother Murong had said so, then I will treat those ancestral businesses as gifts to others. I am too lazy to take them back. "

Murong Ke nodded his head, then smiled and said, "Since Brother Mu Rong doesn't want to pursue this matter any further. . . Of course, that would be the best. Just treat it as a gift from brother Mu Rong to someone else. "

Nalan Kang and Murong Ke chatted for a long time and finally walked out. Although the willows along the river had lost their color, it did not diminish its beauty under the setting sun.

The current willows were even more enchanting and charming than in the 6th month. Murong Ke and Nalan Kang walked on the dam along the river. This was one of the few cities in Gusu City. The water was clear and sparkling. It looked extraordinarily beautiful now.

The river was very wide. Many boats were swimming on the surface of the river. Many of them were young people with beautiful scenery. There were also middle-aged men who were swimming and discussing poems. Of course, there were also many old men who were in their twilight years.

Most of the old men were boatmen, and they were able to hold their boats at a very high speed. They were often able to drive the ship one mile away with a single pole. This was the work they had at hand. Although these people usually dealt with fishing boats, their words didn't sound like they came from the countryside at all. Because they had all kinds of customers. Guests from all over the world would tell a lot of stories about them.

After listening to a lot of them, the boatmen on the fishing boats could naturally tell some stories. On this day, the boatman's stories were quite eye-catching. At this time, Murong Ke and Nalan Kang were already sitting on the boat. They ordered a pot of wine and made a few dishes.

Only on the surface of the lake, when talking, no one would know. They specially found a very narrow boat, and no one would hide on it. Other than the boatman, there were only the two of them.

The boatman looked to be in his 70s, but he did not look old at all. They were even very energetic. The boatman took a puff of smoke and laughed: "You two really have good taste. On this ten mile river, this old man's boat is the most stable! Although this old man is not useful, But there is one thing that I am proud of. This old man has been sailing since he was twenty years old. For a whole fifty years, there has never been a problem. . . No matter how much wind blows, it will not be able to stump the old man. "

Murong Ke smiled and nodded. "Then we have really chosen the right boat. How about this? When we get here, you can come to my mansion to collect your reward. As long as you can hold on, everything will be fine. "

The old man went down the boat. The boat flew forward as if it was flying. Not only that, but the bamboo stick in the old man's hand seemed to be alive. It swayed left and right in the old man's hand and kept hitting the surface of the water, creating waves. However, the boat did not have the slightest intention of shaking.

It turned out that the old man could easily control the balance of the boat. The boat was in the old man's hand. It was as flat as flat ground. Murong Ke and Nalan Kang expressed their satisfaction. At this time, the old man also became somewhat proud. "No, my two guests. The old man's skill had some background. Even the old man's boat back then could not reach such a level. He had to rely on the guidance of a master to reach such a level. "

Murong Ke asked curiously, "Oh? So there was an expert guiding him? I wonder who this expert is. " The old man shook his head. "I don't know who he is, but he is a god!"

Nalan Kang was puzzled. "Where is this master's god?" The old man put the bamboo stick aside and waited for the boat to balance. Squatting on the boat, he smoked a pipe and smiled. "This master is not an ordinary person. One day. . . I came to an exit of this river to rest for a while, and then I met this master. This master stood by the side of the water. He's been waiting. "

Nalan Kang asked, "What is he waiting for? Could it be that a Divine Immortal is coming down?" The old man narrowed his eyes and shook his head. "Of course there is no Divine Immortal. This master is standing at the bottom of a waterfall. This master is waiting at the waterfall. After a while. . . What do you think is going on here? A person suddenly fell from the upper reaches of the waterfall! "

Nalan Kang and Murong Ke's facial expressions changed. Nalan Kang asked, "Who exactly is this person? Why did he fall from the waterfall?"

The old man took a puff of smoke and licked his lips. "I don't know about that. It's just that I was enjoying the cool breeze under the shade of a tree that day, and this boat was just by the shore. After that expert received that person, he disappeared like a wisp of smoke. However, I clearly saw that person had blood on his body! "

Murong Ke's brows were tightly knitted. Nalan Kang also did not seem to be very happy. Nalan Kang asked again," Then do you see what that person with blood looks like? Was it a man or a woman? A young man or an old man?"

The old man shook his head. "I didn't see this person's appearance, and I couldn't even tell if he was a man or a woman. But from the looks of his jet-black hair, he should be a young man. Do you know what the most unbelievable thing is? After I saw him, I didn't dare to close my eyes for three days and three nights! "

Nalan Kang was obviously getting impatient. "What exactly is it?" The old man sighed. There was a painful expression on his face. He suppressed the suppressed emotions in his heart and sighed. "I saw that this person had a pair of legs tied around his body! It was a pair of rotten human legs! "

Silence, a deathly silence. Murong Ke and Nalan Kang's faces had almost lost all color. They had almost guessed at the same time who the person who was saved was.

It must be Xiao Nanfeng. If Xiao Nanfeng was saved, he must still be alive. If Xiao Nanfeng was still alive, he would definitely come back to them for revenge.

The two of them couldn't sit still any longer. If Xiao Nanfeng hadn't been stabbed by Bai Zi back then, he could have even fought Young Master Wuyue. He might not have lost to Young Master Wuyue.

Currently, no one in Gusu City was his match. If he wanted to seek revenge from Murong Ke and Nalan Kang, no one would be able to stop him.

An unprecedented sense of crisis began to slowly envelop the two of them. The old man wanted to say something else. It could be seen that the two of them no longer had any intention of listening. He could only pick up the bamboo stick again, but when the water splashed, he could not move anymore.

A person had already grabbed his neck and threw him into the water. This place was in the middle of the river. No one would notice a person falling into the water from here, not to mention that there was not even the slightest splash.

This man had to be killed. As long as this story was heard by more people, there would always be people who would spread the news that Xiao Nanfeng was still alive, and no unnecessary conflicts would be allowed. Since the two of them knew that Xiao Nanfeng might not have died, Then they could only find him in the dark and kill him once more.

Otherwise, once the news of Xiao Nanfeng being alive spread across the entire Gusu, those civilians who were rescued by Xiao Nanfeng would definitely find a way to take revenge with him. At that time, another bloody storm would be unavoidable.

The wine had lost its taste. They suddenly remembered that they wouldn't be able to hold the boat. They just let the boat move forward slowly with their dignity, not knowing where to go.

Xiao Nanfeng was drinking tea with Ren Bushi at this moment. They had been drinking big bowls together, but at this moment, both of them started drinking tea. Besides Ren Bushi, there was now another person, Murong Cheng.

Murong Cheng was also sitting beside Xiao Nanfeng. He picked up a cup of tea and slowly drank it. They seemed very calm, and this place was very quiet. It was located on a strange rock in the middle of the mountain. Very few people would come here. Therefore, Xiao Nanfeng chose this place as the place where they would gather for the first time.
