The Legend of Swing Sword and Execution of Demons

Chapter 341 The Ear of the Partition

The night was hazy.

The gentle autumn wind, mixed with the cold and cool autumn, makes the insects gradually die down, and there is no sound.

The autumn wind blowing on the face makes people shiver, but it is also refreshing.

The secret room would make people feel dull and depressing, but the person who is in it at the moment has a relaxed posture on his face, eyebrows, and words.

I want to come to this refreshing autumn wind, which is indispensable.

Since it is a secret room, where does the wind come from?

The wind comes from the river.

There are nearly a hundred houses of various sizes in Jianglin Town, more than half of them stand along the river, and Yanhui Inn is one of them.

This secret room is only separated from Jiang by a wall.

There are ventilation holes half a foot square on the wall, which are less than a foot above the water surface.

Under the blue sky and broad daylight, even if someone stood by the river, he would only think that the dark hole was just a drain, and no one would know what was tricky about it.

The hole is bent at two right angles, and the depth is three feet.

In this way, whether it is a scorching heat wave or a biting cold wind, it is difficult to go straight into it.

Heat insulation in summer and cold resistance in winter, only the soothing spring breeze and rustling autumn wind can be unimpeded.

And at night, even though the inside is brightly lit, there is still no light outside.

Taking into account ventilation and deliberately avoiding people's eyes and ears, it is obvious that this secret room is not infrequently used, and people often live in it.

The secret room is about two feet wide, but its length is hard to figure out.

As far as the place where the eight people are staying now, the room is five feet long, and beyond that is a wall.

There is a door on the wall, and what is going on behind the door is unknown.

There are neither exquisite furnishings nor gorgeous decorations in the secret room, and even the walls are bare.

The light comes from candles on the table.

The table is a long table with ten wooden chairs placed on both sides of the long table.

There are eight people sitting on the wooden chair.

The eight people were talking about the gains of these days, without realizing that there are ears behind the walls.

Of course, the people behind the wall don't know what's going on in the secret room. At this time, Jiang Yichen has no eyes, only ears.

In the secret room, how many people are there, what kind of people are there, and what are they talking about, he can only judge with his ears.

He has been listening for an hour.

This means that the eight people below also talked for an hour.

During this hour, apart from the sound of speech, he also heard the sound of pacing back and forth, the sound of beating the table angrily, and the sound of pouring wine and drinking water.

This hour was a torment for Jiang Yichen.

He had to focus on two things. While listening to the conversation of the eight people with all his attention, he also had to divide his energy to pay attention to whether there was anyone approaching below or above his head.

If someone from below wants to come up, it's easy to handle, he is sure to disappear before they reach the stairs without making a sound.

If someone wants to come down from the top, it will be a lot of trouble, he doesn't know if there is another escape in the secret room, the top of the head is the only escape route, if someone comes from above, he will not be able to get out unless he is ruthless.

And the worst possibility is that it happens that someone below is going back to the top, and someone above is going down at the same time. When the up and down meet, Jiang Yichen can't escape in the first time, and nine times out of ten he won't be able to escape.

It can be said that Jiang Yichen's risk of sneaking into the secret room this time is no less than that of infiltrating the Nether Sect alone.

Of course, in the face of people like Ting Yuge, Jiang Yichen still has a backup, but, if it is not forced, it is better not to use it.

High risk also means high reward.

During this hour, the information Jiang Yichen heard was enough to make up for the lack of information in the Nether Sect for more than half a month.

From Xi Xia's mouth, I learned that the Fenghuo Tower is in close contact with Jinyiwei. In a few days, thousands of households of the five Jinyiwei stayed close to the Fenghuo Tower. They had very detailed discussions with the landlord and several elders. .

And those five Jinyiwei Qianhu are exactly the Yin Yang five who appeared in Longyuan Gorge a few months ago. Obviously, they represent Jinyiwei and come to win over the forces of the world.

In the ensuing conversation between the eight people, Jiang Yichen also clarified their specific identities and the general purpose of coming to Xijiang County.

As expected, the Yanhui Inn is doing the inn business on the surface, but in fact it is the hidden stronghold of Tingyu Pavilion in Xijiang County.

The boss and the clerk stay here, firstly, to find out information about various factions and factions around Xijiang County, and secondly, to provide help to fellow sects who are located near Xijiang County when necessary.

The boss's name is Fei Piao, and he speaks carelessly, and several people directly call him "A Piao".

The middle-aged guy with a deep voice is called Mu Shang, also known as "Boss Mu", and he must have been a respectable person.

The young guy who guards above is called Xiaoyaner. According to the audience, he is very good at his feet, and he is hard to find when he runs quickly. It can be imagined that this little Yan'er must be sleeping soundly on the bed, not caring about any movement.

Fortunately, they acted cautiously and chose to meet in the dead of night, and they were so careful in their own territory that no one should notice.

These three people, Jiang Yichen, have never met each other, and their names are also very strange. It seems that most of them joined the cabinet in the past two or three years.

Tingyu Pavilion is now on the cusp of the storm, causing many forces on the rivers and lakes to stare at it.

As people in Tingyu Pavilion, they will face all kinds of dangers all the time. They will be captured at any time, tortured, and even their lives will be in danger. Except for the survivors of Shifu back then, it is really puzzling. What kind of magic power and charm does Tingyu Pavilion have, so that newcomers are willing to stick to it?

Jiang Yichen still had no way of knowing the answer based on the conversations tonight.

Among the remaining six people, the man who speaks like a song can be confirmed to be Xi Xia.

The pair of master and servant are Guan Dadao and Zifeng.

That pair of brothers and sisters are also Meat Moth and Reverse Butterfly.

The couple who have not yet returned are Sier and Piaoying.

As for the person who came here this morning, it was Li Zixuan whom Jiang Yichen met once in Longyuan Gorge.

Li Zixuan is not a member of Tingyu Pavilion, he is a disciple of Shaolin laymen like Rou Moth, and working hard for Tingyu Pavilion seems to be due to this same relationship.

Li Zixuan came back from Kunlun Realm with two purposes.

One is to bring back Luo Piaoling's next action plan.

The second is to understand the current progress of the people in Tingyu Pavilion in Xijiang County.

When Jiang Yichen understood the purpose of Li Zixuan's visit this time, he was shocked and brought him closer to the truth about the theft of the Shaolin Golden Seal.

Although it is just an errand to deliver news, but when this matter is linked to Tingyu Pavilion, what is the difference from going through fire and water?

He didn't think that Li Zixuan would go through life and death for Ting Yuge just because of his relationship with Shaolin lay disciples.

He seems to have captured a line, a line hidden between Shaolin and Tingyu Pavilion.

It is true that the Shaolin Golden Seal was lost, but whether it was stolen is another matter.

Just as Luo Piaoling steals seals, aiming to expand Tingyu Pavilion and make it a stand-alone powerhouse, this conspiracy theory sounds as ridiculous as a newborn child clamoring to unify the martial arts, but in this tense and chaotic situation, it can't help but make people Take it for granted.

It's all a blindfold to cover up the line behind it.

This line does not seem to be alone, there are several branch lines to accompany it, Wudang Emei is in it, Daoyi League is in it, will there be gangs involved in Kyushu Jieyi and Universal Alliance?

Jiang Yichen was almost certain that the next target of this line would be the Kunlun faction.

This line is in Luo Piaoling's hands. As for Ni Die, Meat Moth and others who came to Xijiang County together, they intend to find out the details of the Jianghu gangs who often come to Xijiang County or are originally in Xijiang County. There are gangs from all over Kyushu, such as Quliu Nian Pavilion, Lengyue Temple, Zhuguang Baoqi Pavilion, Zuihongyan, etc., as well as evil sects such as Tushi Gang and Nether Sect.

Jiang Yichen thought about it carefully, and what they did was almost exactly the same as his own.

The main purpose of his incorporation into the Nether Sect was to learn the "Yin Wind Art", but he was also waiting for an opportunity to pry into the various secrets of the Nether Sect.

Many people understand the truth of knowing yourself and the enemy, and winning a hundred battles without danger, but this style of going deep into the enemy's belly is not something everyone dares to think about.

Jiang Yichen has an old man behind his back to give advice, so what about Ting Yuge?

They also listen to the old man's command?

Recalling the scene when Juyuan first met everyone in Shifu three years ago, recalling Luo Piaoling's deep eyes, Jiang Yichen already had the answer in his heart.

Jiang Yichen took a deep breath. There was so much information tonight that it would be difficult to digest it for a while. Hearing that they didn't mean to end, he had to cheer up and continue listening.

Perhaps the night was too dark and the weather was too cold, this breath made Jiang Yichen's nose itchy and he almost sneezed.

In the end, although the sneeze was pressed back, the elbow swung too much and hit the wall directly.

Jiang Yichen didn't know how loud the blow made, he only knew that there was a moment of silence below, and he couldn't hear any more words.

He listened with bated breath, ready to rush back to the shopkeeper's bedroom in the next moment.

There was only a loud bang, "Who!?"
