Night falls, the moon and stars are scarce.
In Yangzhou, a house not far from Chen's residence, three martial arts people gathered in the hall without concealment.
Among them, the old man in a brocade robe is Huo Xiu, the boss of Tsing Yi Building. The middle-aged man with a pair of "mother-child, dragon and phoenix rings" in his hands is Shangguan Jinhong, the leader of the Money Gang. The one with sharp eyes and a sinister face is the owner of Twelve Links Dock. Eagle Eye Seven.
The three of them are all famous people in the world, but for the opportunity of the great changes in the world, they came to Yangzhou first and colluded with each other to seize a house to discuss matters for tomorrow.
As for the original owner of the house, he is the middle-aged corpse still kneeling in the corner begging for mercy.
Next to him were two members of his family, two men and one woman. The man died in a state of shock, while the woman, one senior and three juniors, was in ragged clothes and died of humiliation.
Some of the maids and servants from the original house were outside the hall, with blood all over the ground and no one alive.
It was their men who took action, but the three of them didn't care at all whether it was bloody or cruel, as long as the matter was done well.
"Shangguan Gang Leader, is what you said really feasible? Would Chen Fan really give up the opportunity of the Leshan Giant Buddha for his wife?"
In the hall, Huo Xiu from Qingyi Tower drank the tea brought by his subordinates and looked at Shangguan Jinhong of the money gang with suspicion.
Just now, the three of them analyzed that Chen Fan's character would not compromise with Shaolin and other sects, and there would definitely be a battle.
Shangguan Jinhong suggested that the three of them sneak in and capture Chen Fan's wife Jiang Yuyan to take the opportunity to intimidate the other party when Chen Fan faces off against Shaolin and other sect parties tomorrow.
But Huo Xiu always felt unreliable after hearing this. Great changes were imminent. Would Chen Fan compromise for a mere woman under such an opportunity?
The eagle-eyed Lao Qi next to him didn't say anything but looked at Shangguan Jinhong with doubts in his eyes, thinking that it was some fantasy.
"You don't know, despite Chen Fan's domineering and domineering appearance, he is not a ruthless person, but a lover. You know the Dongchang Prison case that made a lot of noise some time ago.
Chen Fan took the lead and went to the gate of Dongchang to force Liu Xi, the governor of Dongchang, to withdraw the wanted order for Jiang Yuyan.
You must know that Liu Xi compromised before and said that Chen Fan would not be implicated, but Chen Fan was still dissatisfied and insisted on withdrawing all Jiang Yuyan's wanted warrants. In the end, Liu Xi disagreed and Chen Fan took the initiative.
I heard that Liu Xidu had been lying in Dongchang for nearly more than a month because of this, so do you think Jiang Yuyan is important in Chen Fan's eyes? "
Shangguan Jinhong was not angry when faced with Huo Xiu's questioning. As the leader of a well-known gang in the Central Plains, he had his own sources to support his analysis. He held the tea and spoke slowly and confidently.
"Yes, if you look at it this way, it is indeed a love affair. He actually forced himself into the East Factory to fight against the imperial court for a woman."
Hawkeye Lao Qi nodded upon hearing this, basically agreeing with Shangguan Jinhong's analysis.
Huo Xiu on the other side didn't speak anymore, his eyes were deep and he didn't know what he was thinking.
But silence means that he agrees with the method Shangguan Jinhong said.
"But are you sure that Chen Fan can escape the siege of several Shaolin sects? Will we succeed in the end?"
Seeing that Huo Xiu stopped talking, Eagle Eye Seventh had questions, so he asked first.
It is impossible for them to hold Jiang Yuyan hostage in tomorrow's war. After all, if they succeed, they don't think they and others will have a chance to escape from Shaolin Wudang and other major sects.
To be on the safe side, the only way is to catch Jiang Yuyan first and leave secretly without letting those noble people see her, and then contact Chen Fan.
"Don't worry, I am still sure of this. You must know that Chen Fan showed an extremely powerful sword technique at Leshan Giant Buddha that even thousands of well-trained officers and soldiers could not retain. How can Shaolin and other sects succeed?"
Shangguan Jinhong was very confident in Chen Fan and replied calmly.
"Not necessarily. You must know that those officers and soldiers are just a group of ordinary people no matter how well-trained they are. But tomorrow Chen Fan will face several top sects in the world, and the disciples who come are at least third-rate in martial arts."
Huo Xiu, who had been silent before, suddenly interrupted.
They are all famous figures in the world, so Huo Xiu naturally has his own analysis and opinions.
In his opinion, the number of the Shaolin sects united this time was no less than that of the officers and soldiers stationed at the Leshan Giant Buddha, but their force was beyond all of them, so he did not think that he and others could hold Jiang Yuyan hostage until they could escape. Chen Fan.
If Chen Fan is taken down by Shaolin and his team, wouldn't their efforts be in vain?
"We are here to discuss it with the intention of taking advantage of troubled waters and get a share of the pie. Several famous families are taking action. If we can capture Chen Fan, everything will stop. If we can't capture it, this is our chance."
Huo Xiu's words made Shangguan Jinhong, who was already confident, a little shaken, but then he thought about it, they were just here to take advantage of the troubled waters, why should they be too entangled. They won't suffer any loss anyway by holding Jiang Yuyan. It's best if they can threaten Chen Fan, but if they can't, No loss there.
The words awakened the dreamer. Shangguan Jinhong's words immediately made Huo Xiu and Eagle Eye Lao Qi return to normal thoughts. They looked at each other. With the joint efforts of several famous and decent people, they originally wanted to be in case, but they had really thought too much just now.
"Do you think that Chen Fan really has something to rely on if he doesn't run away? After all, no one knows what kind of opportunity he got in the cave of Leshan Giant Buddha?"
Suddenly, Huo Xiu spoke again. What everyone was thinking just now was that Chen Fan was beaten away by Shaolin and other sects, but they never thought about what if Chen Fan really had something to rely on? Otherwise, why wouldn't you run away when facing the menacing sects?
"Whether there is or not, no one knows until the last moment. We don't care about anything else. Whether Chen Fan wins or loses, as long as he doesn't die and seizes Jiang Yuyan's opportunity, we will definitely have a share in it."
Eagle-eyed Lao Qi slowly stood up and patted his robes, looking towards the Chen Mansion with a distant gaze.
...
The night breeze was gentle and it was very cool.
.......
The next day, early in the morning, Shaolin Wudang and other sects had not yet arrived, but Jianghu people from other places had taken the lead and surrounded Chen's house.
This group of people did not come to attack Chen Fan in response to Shaolin, but they all came to watch the fun.
How can you miss this grand scene that is rare in a century?
Of course, it would be better if while watching the excitement, you might get the ancient secret of the great changes in the world.
Obviously, Chen Fan's act of forcibly breaking into the Leshan Giant Buddha, which was forbidden by the imperial court, had convinced everyone in the world that he must know something. Ancient secrets and opportunities were all speculated on him.
In order to get a good seat to watch the show early, some people even came up in the middle of the night without sleeping.
However, as more and more people arrived at dawn, many people were already fighting each other for a good position.
The number of dead and bloody bodies around Chen Mansion continues to increase.
Maybe they thought, if Chen Fanzhen revealed some ancient secrets under the coercion of the sects, they would be able to hear it first and gain an advantage.
The sun is high and the clouds are white.
The time came to noon, and the meal had not yet started in the Chen Mansion. Shaolin and other well-known sects finally came with great force amidst the waiting of countless Jianghu people.
At first glance, there were tens of thousands of people accompanying him. There were already a lot of people around Chen Mansion, and now it was even more crowded.
There were many people coming from several sects, and those who originally occupied good positions were instantly occupied by several sects.
They dared to be angry but dared not speak out. Facing the disciples of several sects, they could only leave with a smile.
After all, masters from several sects are here now. Even if they can defeat these disciples, they cannot escape from their elders.
"Devil Chen Fan, you killed my leader and harmed my senior brother, come out and die! Die~"
With the blessing of crazy inner strength, it was like a lion's roar, with a powerful whirling sound that immediately resounded throughout the Chen Mansion.
Several sects lined up in front of Chen Fan's gate. The one who spoke was Songshan Sect Lu Bai. He was almost killed by Chen Fan during the last meeting of the Five Sacred Mountains. This time, as a victim, he was the first to stand up and confront Chen Fan. yelled.
"Chen Fan come out and die!"
The disciples of Songshan Sect followed Lu Bai and shouted in unison, the sound was deafening and resounded throughout the world.
The warm atmosphere and endless shouting are the most emboldening.
Even in the end, the disciples of several sects all started shouting.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, the sound of Chen Mansion's door opening and banging and vibrating sounded.
The door opened, and Chen Fan, dressed in white and holding a Tang sword in his hand, slowly walked out.
