C61 Faraway Relatives
When they returned to the inn, they saw that Yuen Changsheng had been waiting for them for a long time. When they asked Duan Tianya, he told them that martial uncle had drunk some wine alone and was resting in his room.
Perhaps it was because they heard the noise, Duan Tianya walked out with narrowed eyes. Before he could recover his energy, a letter suddenly came from outside the door.
The letter was sent by Wuwei Escort Agency. The general meaning was that Jiang Huer's relatives came over and said that they had something to discuss. Duan Tianya thought about it. There were still some days left before the Alliance Master's Meeting arrived, so he might as well make a trip back in time. Thinking about this, he bid farewell to everyone and rushed to the Wuwei Escort Agency.
When he entered the Escort Office, he found Jiang Huer sitting in the middle. Su Hsing was sitting on one side, and a man in his fifties was sitting on the other side. Behind him were more than ten young men.
Jiang Huer seemed very happy when she saw Duan Tianya come in, but before she could get up, the man in his fifties immediately stood up and said, "This is Hero Duan? I have been looking forward to meeting you for a long time. I look at Wen Tiangang of Haiqu. This is my eleven sons. Quick, greet Hero Duan. "
The eleven of them stood up in unison and cupped their fists in unison. "I've been looking forward to meeting Hero Duan for a long time!"
Duan Tianya looked at Su Hsing and Jiang Huer in confusion. Jiang Huer hurriedly said, "Uncle Wen of Seawatch Camp is a relative of my family. I have a request for you this time. "
"Oh?" Duan Tianya was a little suspicious, but he did not say it directly.
Jiang Huer saw this and continued to say: "My Uncle Wen offended Guo Zihuan from Chuan Yun Castle a few days ago. Guo Zihuan threatened to kill my Uncle Wen. "
Speaking of Guo Zihuan, of course Duan Tianya remembered. Back in the Alliance Master's Meeting of Wise Beings Manor, Guo Zihuan was defeated by Tian Fenng, but this man's spear skills were not bad.
But Duan Tianya thought about it. Even if Guo Zihuan's spear skills were good, he wouldn't dare to enter the Seawatch Camp, right? Thinking about this, he couldn't help but ask, "Fort Master Wen is staying in the village. I don't think Guo Zihuan would dare to barge in. "
Wen Tiangang sighed lightly and said, "To tell you the truth, just Guo Zihuan alone, I really can't be afraid of him. It was said that Guo had hired a famous assassin in the martial arts world called Meng Chong, the Seven Demons Sword. "
When Duan Tianya heard this, He said lightly: "No wonder. This Meng Chong is considered an expert amongst assassins. It is said that he is proficient in using the Left-hand Sword and is proficient in assassination techniques. In just two to three years, he has already become the one with the highest price among all assassins. "
Wen Tiangang nodded and said. "I have to make a trip to Sword Whistling Manor tomorrow to deliver some gold and silver. I was worried that something unexpected might happen on the way, so I wanted to ask the Wuwei Escort Office to escort me. "
Duan Tianya did not want to participate in this matter, but before he could speak, Jiang Huer spoke first, "Uncle Wen, don't worry. Leave this matter to me and Big Brother Su. "
When Wen Tiangang heard this, he hurriedly got up and said, "Then I'll be troubling you for a night. Tomorrow, we'll go to Sword Whistling Manor together. " Jiang Huer quickly agreed.
After sending Wen Tiangang and the rest back to their rooms to rest, Duan Tianya smiled and teased Jiang Huer. "You really dare to take on this task. "
Jiang Huer was puzzled, "Why wouldn't I dare?"
Duan Tianya said, "Do you know who this Meng Chong is?"
Jiang Huer said, "He's just a killer!"
Duan Tianya said, "Just an assassin? If it was that simple, wouldn't your relative find help from Sword Whistling Manor?"
Jiang Huer said, "Maybe Uncle Wen's importance in Sword Whistling Manor is not enough? But after all, the two families are related. I can't just stand idly by, right?"
Duan Tianya said helplessly, "Not enough weight is just one of the reasons. The second reason is that Meng Chong's sword skills are really very high. It's not that easy to deal with him. "
Jiang Huer asked, "You are not his match either?"
Duan Tianya said, "I did not agree to it. "
Jiang Huer was slightly angry, so she raised her voice and said, "Then how is Brother Su compared to him?"
Duan Tianya said straightforwardly, "I have not fought with him before, but I heard rumors in the Jianghu that the person he promised to kill has not escaped yet. "
Jiang Huer was a little surprised, "Doesn't that mean he is very powerful?"
Duan Tianya smiled, "Do you think Meng Chong is a flower in the flower?"
Jiang Huer was a little anxious and said, "Then what should we do? I already promised Uncle Wen. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have agreed in a hurry. " She watched Jiang Huer pacing back and forth. In a hurry, Duan Tianya comforted her, "I will leave with you tomorrow. But this matter cannot be publicized. Let's talk it out with Wen Tiangang. Because the opponent is an assassin, we are in the open. They are in the dark, so it would be best if they set out quietly. "
Jiang Huer agreed readily. After that, she went back to pack up and prepare for the trip to Sword Whistling Manor the next day.
On the second day, a group of people rode their horses and sped towards Sword Whistling Manor. They went to get the initial Dragon Howl Manor, and the Master was Yang Zhixing.
Wen Tiangang's purpose of going there was also very clear. Firstly, he wanted to avoid the pursuit of Guo Zihuan and Meng Chong. Secondly, he wanted to seek refuge with Yang Zhixing and become a guest to strengthen his strength.
It seemed that the seemingly harmonious merger was actually a scheme of their own.
Originally, they planned to arrive in one day and one night. However, due to the weather being too hot, the horses could not bear to run. They could only fight at the tip of an inn nearby.
After a short while, they could only hear the sounds of horses galloping. Someone was shouting outside the inn, causing them to be unable to sleep. Duan Tianya did not go out after getting up. Instead, he opened the window and used the faint light from the lanterns to check the situation outside.
Su Hsing and Jiang Huer walked closer and saw a person holding a shining silver spear. After asking, they realized that this person was Guo Zihuan from the Chuan Yun Castle.
Guo Zihuan saw Su Hsing holding a long halberd and asked, "May I know your name?"
Su Hsing said seriously, "Su Hsing. "
Guo Zihuan said, "I am only here to find Wen Tiangang of Seawatch Stronghold. It has nothing to do with him. "
Jiang Huer said, "Wen Tiangang is my relative. Why are you forcing him?"
Guo Zihuan sneered and said, "Your relative? No relative can steal other people's things to curry favor, right?"
Jiang Huer was puzzled and said, "Stealing other people's things? Steal which family's things?"
Guo Zihuan said with a gloomy expression, "He, Wen Tiangang, stole a pair of jade ruyi from my Chuan Yun Castle. He is preparing to give Yang Zhixing a gift. If the two of you don't believe me, you can call your relatives over and ask them. "
Jiang Huer was somewhat hesitant. At this moment, she heard a miserable cry from the inn. Su Hsing was startled and said, "We fell into a trap. The voice is the residence of Chief Wen Zhai. " The two of them jumped up and pushed open the door to enter. At this time, there were already five people lying in a pool of blood.
The one who had barged in was a man in black. He did not have a mask on his face and was holding a fast sword in his hand. He was not even thirty years old and his body was well-built. As for his facial features, although it was hard to see them clearly, at first glance, he could be considered pretty.
Su Hsing raised his halberd and fought with the man in black. However, the room was too narrow, and Su Hsing could not use it. Unexpectedly, the man in black said, "Your weapon is too long, so it's not suitable for you to fight here. You'd better wait for me to kill these people, then the two of us can find another empty place to fight. "
