C76 Behind the Decline
The four of them went up the road together and sat in an extremely spacious carriage. The interior of the carriage wasn't luxurious, but it was comfortable.
Only Qing Loongcang drove the carriage by himself and said angrily: "Why can you sit in a comfortable carriage while I drive a carriage outside? It was not fair! It's not fair. "
Lyu Hanyi smiled and asked, "Who paid for this carriage?"
"You paid for it. What's wrong?" Qing Loongcang said, unconvinced.
"Then who knows where we are going?" Lyu Hanyi asked again.
"You. " Qing Loongcang was confused, not knowing what Lyu Hanyi wanted to say.
"Ye, do you know that you are not feeling well?"
"I know. "
"Do you think it is appropriate for a woman to drive a carriage? "
"Not appropriate. "
"Then think about who else? "
"And me. " Qing Loongcang actually laughed, "I say, you black-hearted guy. You actually dare to plot against me. "
"Haha, I can't believe you actually saw through it. You're a child worth teaching. " Lyu Hanyi laughed out loud.
The four of them chatted and laughed along the way. The atmosphere was incomparably relaxed, and they soon arrived at their destination.
This was a quiet and peaceful village. Their arrival seemed to have disturbed this quiet village. The people in the village stopped what they were doing and looked at the carriage curiously.
"Mom, Mom, what is that?" A little girl by the roadside pointed at the carriage and asked.
"That's a carriage," her mother said worriedly.
"Hey, hey, Old Lu, are you sure you didn't make a mistake? I don't think there's anyone vicious here. " Qing Loongcang, who was driving the carriage, said.
"I didn't say that he was a ferocious person, but he might be the one who led the Mad Sword Sect to decline and destroy the Mad Sword Sect. " Lyu Hanyi said indifferently.
The carriage stopped in front of a small courtyard.
A white-haired old man was sitting leisurely on a rocking chair woven with vines. Beside him was a tea table with a cup of tea and a teapot on it.
Lyu Hanyi pushed open the bamboo door of the courtyard and walked in with a group of people.
The old man slightly opened his eyes and looked at the group of people who came in, but his face did not change much.
"Elder Wan, it seems like your life is quite leisurely. " Lyu Hanyi said with an unfriendly expression.
After all, the person in front of him was one of the people who poisoned him and broke his tendons. When he thought about the suffering he had suffered and the leisurely life of the person in front of him. For some reason, there was a trace of anger in his heart.
The old man with the surname Wan's expression did not change much. He lowered his eyes and said, "So it's Han Yi. I didn't expect you to still be alive. "
"Did you forget what you did to me in the past!? I really want to see what kind of heart you have!" Lyu Hanyi, who had been calm all this time, suddenly let out an angry roar.
Ye Xiaotian and Qing Loongcang looked at each other, then looked away.
"The Mad Sword Sect is gone. I have also received the punishment that I deserve. " Then he lifted the blanket covering his legs. The empty pants were revealed, "To be able to live for so long. I'm already very satisfied, my favorite person also left before me. . . Take my life away. " The old man said softly.
"Lyu Hanyi unsheathed his sword and pointed it at the old man.
The old man's expression did not change. There seemed to be some satisfaction in his eyes.
Ye Xiaotian and Qing Loongcang didn't say anything. They believed in Lyu Hanyi's character.
Looking at the old man in front of them, the hatred from before could not be raised anymore. He could only put the sword back into its sheath angrily.
"I never kill people who are not resistant to governance. I came to find you this time not for revenge, but for Master's death. " Lyu Hanyi said with a cold snort.
The old man who had been calm all this time suddenly changed his expression.
Although it was only for a split second, the three of them immediately noticed it.
"Looks like you really know something? Speak!" Lyu Hanyi shouted.
" I do know some things, but it's better that you don't know about it. I'm doing this for the sake of your lives. " The old man said.
"You don't have to worry about it. " Lyu Hanyi's tone was still filled with anger.
The old man picked up the teacup and took a sip, "The Sect Master's death is indeed as you wish. He was poisoned to death. Moreover, the person who poisoned us was among the elders who wanted to seize the position of the Sect Leader. However, I'm not sure who it was. I was only instigated. It was Elder Fang and Elder Li who found me. Tell me that the Sect Leader is already beyond cure and is unable to take up the position of Sect Leader. They tried to rope me in to take control of the Mad Sword Sect, but the Sect Leader was still alive. I hesitated. I didn't expect that the Sect Chief's bad news would come the next day. My thoughts loosened, but you stood out and defeated all the experts in the sect. I had no choice but to treat you as the sect master, but how could we be suppressed by a junior? Thus, my thoughts became more active, but it was all because of your martial arts. Thus, he decided on a plan to poison him. After the matter was settled, the three of us once again fought for the position of Sect Leader. My legs were also crippled, and from then on, I became a cripple. However, before I left, I was prepared to look for Elder Fangzheng, who had already become sect master at that time. I begged him to give me a few properties so that I could live the rest of my life without worry. However, I didn't expect to hear his conversation with a black clothed man. He said, Hall Master. The matter that you've entrusted to me has already been completed. 'That black clothed man said. . . ' Very well, after you completely destroy the Mad Sword Sect, you will become the Vice Hall Master. After saying that, the black clothed man left. I wanted to see his face clearly, but his face was covered with a crescent moon mask. Later on, I found out that he was from the Bright Moon Tavern. This is all I know. I never thought that the people of the Bright Moon Tavern had already infiltrated to this extent. I also never thought that the unknown Bright Moon Tavern would have such a huge chess game. In the current Pugilistic World, who is a member of the Bright Moon Tavern? Who isn't? I'm afraid no one can say for sure. "
The old man spoke very slowly, and he would occasionally sink into his memories when he was old. His words had been said for nearly an hour, but Ye Xiaotian and the other three didn't complain at all.
"Bright Moon Tavern!" The flame of revenge in Lyu Hanyi's heart was ignited once again.
"It really is the Bright Moon Tavern?" Ye Xiaotian said in a low voice.
Qing Loongcang heaved a long sigh. He knew this meant that the Baiyun Manor had colluded with the Bright Moon Tavern. If the number one and number two gangs on the secret list were to join hands, it would mean that the Baiyun Manor had colluded with the Bright Moon Tavern. What they would face would not only be a lofty mountain, but also an insurmountable sky.
"Let's go. " Lyu Hanyi said with a gloomy face, then turned around and left.
Ye Xiaotian, Qing Loongcang, and Su Jiuer also followed him and left.
In an instant, only the old man was left in the courtyard. The rattan chair was shaking slightly, and the old man looked calm, as if nothing had happened.
