Chapter 69: Yin-Yang School
Chu Lu Ren had also heard that these "little devils" who came to Murong Villa to cause trouble mainly came from six gangs or sects.
For example, the Qingcheng Sect came from afar to seek revenge - they were the ones who had grim expressions when they heard Chu Lu Ren's name before.
But unfortunately, the one who died was not Yu Canghai, but Sima Lin's father, an elder of the Qingcheng Sect...
These sects and gangs that came from afar also each found the "local snakes" to contact. Gangs like the Qinjiazhai, which are of a green forest nature, all found Guiyuanzhuang. Lu Guanying's master in the Xianxia Sect was also killed by his famous skills, so Xiao Lu was naturally willing to take the lead. Others like the Qingcheng Sect found the Changle Gang.
The Changle Gang is also a gang that has emerged in Jiangnan in recent years. It has become very large and has developed rapidly, but... it has a very bad reputation!
Compared with ordinary bandits, they have fewer rules and do things in an unethical way, which makes them criticized by people in the underworld. However, they are indeed large in scale and have great influence in Jiangnan.
Under the rule of the Song court, when such gangs appeared, it stood to reason that the No. 1 Village in the World should have taken care of them. After all, they also harmed ordinary people, and it was not just a matter of grudges.
However, there was no movement in the Shenhou Mansion and the No. 1 Manor in the World. Some people said that Situ Heng and Bei Haishi secretly bribed Zhao Wusi, while others said that the Changle Gang was secretly controlled by Zhao Wusi.
Of course... a more authoritative statement is that Zhao Wusi will not easily suppress such sects with some foundation with the power of the imperial court, but will take advantage of the opportunity of the Xiake Island to send out invitations every ten years to take advantage of the situation!
More than 20 years ago, when the No. 1 Village in the World was just founded and the Chivalrous List had not yet been published, Zhao Wusi went to the Chivalrous Island once and made three agreements with the second island master, Longmu...
A few months ago, the Changle Gang's leader Situ Heng and elder Bei Hai Shi were said to have had some conflicts. Although it was several years ago, it was said to be related to the Xiake Island's order to reward the good and punish the evil.
But after all, it was still early. No one had expected that the conflict would escalate so quickly. Perhaps... Bei Haishi saw the opportunity of the frequent murders in the underworld?
In short, Situ Heng died inexplicably, and "it is said" that he died from his own claw skills. However, Bei Haishi did not dare to succeed him, and it was rumored that he was preparing to find a puppet.
The Chu Lu people also realized that some of these people who were seeking revenge were not really the fault of the Murong family!
It was just that they finally had someone to take the blame, and many unsolved cases in the martial arts world began to point to the Murong family...
The other victims were also happy to have Changle Gang get involved, so they saw through the situation but kept silent. However, the people from the Murong family obviously couldn't stand to hear it!
"…What does it have to do with my young master?" The visitor directly exposed the dirty deeds within the Changle Gang.
Mi Hengye was Bei Haishi's confidant, so he was naturally furious when he heard this: "Who are you, you little rascal, to dare to gossip here? Do you want to frame Military Advisor Bei and let Murong the thief off the hook?"
"Watch your mouth, old man ! Killing the scoundrels from the Changle Gang would only taint my young master's sword!"
Two big men also arrived at the waterside pavilion at this time. One of them was ugly, but ugly in a heroic way, with a thin figure and a stubborn face. The other one was uglier, but ugly in a fierce way, and was taller.
"It's Master Bao San and Master Feng Si who are here!" A-Bi exclaimed in surprise.
Although Chu Lu Ren was in the same industry and had saved them before, he was not a member of the Murong family after all, and might not care about such vendettas. Only when she saw the real masters of the Murong family had arrived did she breathe a sigh of relief.
The visitors were none other than two of Murong's four great ministers - Bao Bu Tong and Feng Bo'e!
The Murong clan does not have only one manor. For example, each of the four great ministers has some power. Bao Bu Tong is the owner of Jinfeng Manor, Feng Bo'e is the owner of Xuanshuang Manor...
"Hahaha, don't worry, sister A-Bi. A few evil spirits have disturbed the peace of sister A-Zhu's waterside pavilion. Fourth brother will ask them to apologize!" Feng Bo'e laughed heartily. He was not worried at all about the other party's large numbers. Instead, he was a little excited.
Although A-Bi and A-Zhu addressed each other as "Master", they were not actually servants, otherwise why would they be entrusted with the management of the small islands near Murong Villa, such as Perfume Pavilion and Qinyun Cottage?
"Huh? Cousin is here too? My young master has gone to Shaolin. If you want to find him, you can come with my brother." Bao Bu Tong also saw Wang Yuyan at this time.
Wang Yuyan was about to speak, but after hesitating, she turned her head to look at Chu Luren. She had not forgotten the three rules they had agreed upon.
Bao Bu Tong was surprised to see that his cousin, who was always rude to others, actually cared about the opinion of a young man, so he couldn't help but ask, "What's your name, young man?"
"Huh? I'm quite happy... No, why should I be happy when my friends in the martial arts world have suffered losses over the years? Don't ask nonsense questions!" Chu Lu Ren said righteously.
Different packages: ...
Bao Bu Tong has always been good at talking, but he was not on the same page as Chu Lu Ren, and he was choked for a moment.
Upon seeing this, Ah Zhu quickly explained Chu Lu Ren's identity to Bao Bu Tong, and emphasized that it was he who saved herself and Ah Bi at Mantuo Villa, so as to prevent the Third Master and the Fourth Master from provoking their enemies.
"So you are relatives from Madam Wang's family. Thank you for rescuing my two sisters before, and thank you for sending my cousin here..." Feng Boye bowed to Chu Lu Ren when he heard this.
Chu Luren didn't understand whether he could be considered as so he just assumed so for now.
"I don't deserve it. Madam was just trying to scare them. As for Miss Wang... I was entrusted by Madam to take Miss Wang to travel around the world. It has nothing to do with the Murong family." Chu Lu Ren shook his head and returned a half-salute.
Of course, Bao Bu Tong and Feng Bo'e understood that Mrs. Wang was definitely not just trying to scare them.
Moreover, the two of them also heard that Mrs. Wang seemed to be trying to match the cousin with an "outsider". In this regard, Bao Bu Tong and Feng Bo'e were men after all, so their reactions were naturally different from those of Ah Zhu and Ah Bi.
Firstly, in their opinion, the cousin was a very nice person and was in love with their son. As for their son's lack of affection for the cousin, they were not that sensitive about it. Secondly, they were also "domineering" for their son. They always felt that if Wang Yuyan was really with someone else, it would feel like Murong had cheated on her again...
Murong Fu... must not be cheated on!
"No, no, my cousin and my young master are in love with each other, how can you say that they have no relationship? Although Young Master Chu is from Madam Wang's family, he should also know that distant relatives cannot separate relatives." Bao Bu Tong said, shaking his head.
Originally, Nami Hengye was about to take advantage of Feng Bo's retort and get angry, but when he saw the people of the Murong family actually confronting the Chu Lu people again, he immediately stopped. The other "victims" who came to seek revenge also kept silent, and each of them silently said in their hearts: Fight, fight...
"Your young master is really a man of loyalty. He can just come and confess his love to her. As for whether we are distant relatives or not... Now I am Miss Wang's guardian. If we are to be close, I am closer. If we are to be distant, Murong family loses. If you are to say that we are at odds, you two are being mean, right?" Chu Lu Ren said sarcastically.
Being so sarcastic with a stranger like me? That's it, that's it?
"You little brat! Stop talking nonsense. Since you saved Ah Zhu and Ah Bi, Fourth Master Feng will let you have three moves! If you lose, get out of here right away, or I'll splatter your blood all over you!"
