Volume 10 Chapter 82

The village south of Laiyang is not big, and now there are many rangers gathered, making the small village extremely crowded. When Tang Yin and his party arrived here, they saw that many simple tents had been set up outside the village. Now if they want to find a place to stay, they probably won't be able to find them even if they spend money.

Yan Xi saw Tang Yin frowning slightly and asked with a smile, "Does Hall Master Tang have a place to stay?"

Tang Yin pointed to the tent not far away and said, "We can just set up a tent outside the village and live there."

Yan Xi raised his head and said, "We have a house in the village. If Hall Master Tang doesn't mind, you can live with us."

Tang Yin thought for a while and felt that it would be better not to get too close to the ranger. Living in the same house would inevitably lead to contact, and if there was contact, he would inevitably become friends. After becoming friends and investing in feelings, what would he want to do to the ranger? Then you will be worried and reluctant to read the full text. Tang Yin smiled and cupped his hands and said, "I accept Master Yan's kindness. My brothers and I have long been accustomed to sleeping in the wilderness, so we won't beg for mercy from your family."

Yan Xi was somewhat surprised by Tang Yin's rejection. The Shuramen did not dare to claim to be the number one gang in the Feng Kingdom, but they were very strong. Other rangers or gangs had no time to try to please them, but he took the initiative to push them out. Yan Xi secretly shook his head, but did not force it. He dismounted and said to Tang Yin, "Okay, then we will see you another day." As she spoke, she handed the reins of the war horse to Tang Yin.

Tang Yin didn't take it, but Shangguan Yuanbiao trotted forward and took the reins. He looked at it, as if he was afraid that his horse would get into trouble due to Yan Xi's riding. Seeing Yan Xi was about to leave, Tang Yin suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, has Master Hou Gehou arrived in Laiyang?"

Yan Xi replied casually: "Brother Hou should be able to arrive in the next few days."

"Oh!" Tang Yin responded thoughtfully and said no more.

After Yan Xi left, the Shangguan brothers and Asan and Asi quickly set up the tent.

Tang Yin and others, like most of the rangers, lived in the open space outside the village.

Not long after they built the tents, the rangers who lived in the adjacent tents came to visit one after another. In fact, people wanted to see who the new residents were. If they were famous rangers or gangs, they could also build relationships with them. .

Tang Yin felt upset after seeing only a few rangers, so he asked the Shangguan brothers and Asan and Asi to take turns guarding outside, and no one was allowed in.

That night, Tang Yin was getting ready to sleep in his tent when Shangguan Yuanwu walked in, came to Tang Yin's side, and whispered: "Your Majesty, my brother Tianyan wants to see you."

Yo! Tang Yin was happy. He lived in such a place and could find it at every corner. It was not easy. "Let him in," he said.

"yes!"

Yuan Wu agreed, turned around and walked out. Not long after, a young man in his early twenties was brought close by him. The young man entered the tent, knelt down and saluted, and said, "Young man..."

Before he could finish speaking, Tang Yin had already made a silence gesture, then frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Are you afraid that others won't know who I am?"

When the young man saw the displeasure on Tang Yin's face, he trembled in fright and hurriedly lowered his voice and said, "I see you, the king."

"Well, get up and come closer to talk." Tang Yin waved to him.

The young man got up from the ground, took two steps forward, and said in a low voice: "I am here to deliver a message to the king on the order of Prime Minister Qiu. King Mo's honor guard crossed the river yesterday and will arrive in our country soon. Prime Minister Qiu reminded the king to pay attention to the return When it’s time, don’t… don’t delay the date, it would be disrespectful.”

This is what Qiu Zhen said, and only Qiu Zhen can speak so bluntly to himself. Tang Yin nodded and said, "Go back and tell Qiu Zhen, I know what's going on and won't miss any important events."

"Yes, yes, yes! Oh... Qiu Xiang also said... said..." The young man hesitated for a long time without saying anything.

Tang Yin said impatiently: "What on earth did you say? Tell me quickly!"

The young man gritted his teeth and said: "Xiang Qiu also said that the king is going out to relax this time, but not to interfere too much. If an accident occurs, it will not only mess up the state affairs, but also become the laughing stock of the world. A king must know In general, know the importance..."

Bang!

Before he finished speaking, Tang Yin had already stamped his foot heavily. The young man immediately broke out in cold sweat, and swallowed the following words back into his stomach. Tang Yin almost gritted his teeth and whispered: "Go back and tell Qiu Zhen to do his job well and not to be too lenient!"

"Yes... Your Majesty..." The young man replied in a trembling voice without even daring to raise his head.

"Is there anything else?"

"No...no more!" "Go back!"

"Yes! Retreat, villain!" The young man saluted, took two steps back, turned around and left quickly. He was afraid that he would suffocate in the tent if he stayed any longer.

There was nothing to say that night. The next day, Shen Shu from the Shura Sect came to see Tang Yin and brought two jugs of wine with him. One is to chat with Tang Yin, and the other is to return the favor for his last treat. Tang Yin had a good chat with Shen Shu, and also asked him about some news about Hou Ge. It turns out that Hou Ge had traveled to Anguo before the knights gathered, and now he was rushing back from Anguo. The journey was long, so he never showed up in Laiyang.

Tang Yin asked curiously: "Brother Shen, is Master Hou often not in the door?"

Shen Shu responded: "It's not just the Master of the Hou Sect who is often absent. Of the four Sect Masters, it's almost impossible to find even one of them on weekdays."

Tang Yin couldn't help but raise his head and smile. It's no wonder that the Shura Sect is low-key. Although there are many sect leaders, there is no one in charge. It's true that things flock together and people are divided into groups. Thinking of this, his heart moved and he said: "Brother Shen, I have admired Master Hou for a long time. If Master Hou comes back, can you introduce him to me?"

Shen Shu was stunned for a moment, then said, "It's easy, leave it to me." He didn't think too much about it, after all, there were many people who wanted to make connections and visit Hou Ge.

Tang Yin said with a smile, "Thank you very much."

Shen Shu agreed very straightforwardly, but he didn't hear from him after that day. It was not until the day before the Rangers' gathering that he came to Tang Yin and said that Hou Ge had returned and agreed to meet him.

Tang Yin thanked him and followed Shen Shu into the village without anyone else, going to the house of Shuramen.

The so-called house of Shuramen in the village is actually just an inconspicuous small courtyard. There are three thatched houses in the courtyard, the main house and the left and right wing rooms. It looks shabby on the outside and not much new inside, but there are many people in and outside the courtyard. These people are men and women, tall and short, fat and thin, but there are many outstanding spiritual practitioners among them. It can be said that most of the elite gang members and disciples of Shuramen are newer and have already arrived here.

Because of Shen Shu's guidance, Tang Yin walked into the courtyard without any obstruction outside. When he came to the main room, Shen Shu asked him to wait outside for a while, and then he walked into the room. Not long after, several people came out of the room. The leader looked to be in his thirties but not yet forty. His skin was tanned and shiny. He was handsome, mighty, and tall and strong. Standing there, he was so imposing that anyone who saw him would not be able to help but take a few more glances.

Behind him, there were Yan Xi and Shen Shu. Tang Yin didn't know the other people.

The other party was very polite. Before Tang Yin could speak, he took the initiative to step forward and said with a bow: "I am Hou Ge, Tang Tang Master, long time no see."

This person is Hou Ge, what a mighty man! Tang Yin nodded secretly, a smile appeared on his face, and he bowed and said: "I have long heard of the name of Hou Men Master!"

"Haha!" Hou Ge laughed. He looked masculine and his laughter was loud, almost shocking people's eardrums. He turned sideways and introduced: "This is Yan Xi, the leader of the Yan sect. I believe that Tang Tang has already known him. This is Zhou Xiang, the leader of the Zhou sect, and this is Huang Chi, the leader of the Huang sect."

As he introduced, Tang Yin bowed his hand to indicate that he had recognized all four leaders of the Shura sect.

Everyone exchanged a few simple pleasantries outside the room, and then entered the house.

There were no seats in the thatched house, only a kang, and everyone did not need to distinguish between guests and hosts, and sat or stood.

Hou Ge was the first leader of the Shura sect, but he was very easy-going and generous. He said to Tang Yin: "In fact, I should have visited Tang Tang. I feel sorry for letting Tang Tang come here in person."

Tang Yin looked at him in confusion.

Hou Ge explained: "Yan Xi has already told me about the misunderstanding in Laiyang. My brothers in the sect were disrespectful to Tang Tang. I hope Tang Tang will tolerate it."

These words greatly increased Tang Yin's favorability towards Hou Ge. He smiled nonchalantly, waved his hand and said, "That's a small matter. If Lord Hou hadn't said it, I would have almost forgotten it."

Hearing this, Hou Ge laughed again and said, "Brother Tang is very generous. Men should be like this!"

Yan Xi pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Does Brother Hou look down on us women?"

Hou Ge shook his hands again and again, and hurriedly said, "I don't mean that!" Then he muttered softly, "Women shouldn't be too worried."

Yan Xi tilted his head and sneered disapprovingly.

Seeing them talking and laughing, Tang Yin could feel the harmony of their feelings. No wonder Shura Sect was so loose but not falling apart. He looked at the people in the room, cleared his throat, and said seriously, "I have something to talk to Lord Hou alone. I wonder if it's okay?"

Everyone present was stunned, including Hou Ge, and they stared at Tang Yin.

Tang Yin added, "It's very important."

Hou Ge put away the cynical expression on his face and nodded to the people around him. Seeing this, people stood up and walked out while looking at Tang Yin in confusion.

When everyone was outside, the third sect leader Zhou Xiang asked Shen Shu: "Shitou, what does Tang Hall Master want to talk to Brother Hou about alone?"

Shen Shu didn't know more than others. He shook his head slowly and said: "I don't know either."

Huang Chi said: "Could this Tang Chu be plotting something?"

Without waiting for others to speak, Yan Xi waved his hand and said: "No! If he really had bad intentions towards my Shura Sect, I would have died that night in Laiyang."

Huang Chi said disapprovingly: "If he killed you at that time, he couldn't get away!"

Yan Xi smiled and asked: "Isn't the situation the same now?"
