The Legend of Swing Sword and Execution of Demons

Chapter 581
As Luo Piaoling said, Jiang Yichen came to find the answer.

This answer is not directly related to the news that the Tushi Gang and Buji Island want to convey, it only concerns Jiang Yichen's greatest pain in his life so far.

——The death of Xishan Island five years ago.

After the tragedy happened that year, Jiang Yichen spent his days sinking on Xishan Island.

In a daze, some negative assumptions appeared in his mind.

However, at that time, he would not and did not dare to believe that the old man would violate the word "morality" and put hundreds of lives at risk, and many of them were "friends" that the old man talked about from time to time.

The possibility of that hypothesis happening can be said to be very small, almost in case.

But even if he didn't dare to believe that, after reentering the rivers and lakes, while avenging the desperadoes on Xishan Island, Jiang Yichen would always unknowingly try to restore the truth.

Over the years, he has not been able to dig out many valuable clues from the various enemies. He can only be sure that all the parties involved undoubtedly seized a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they jointly attacked the Daoyi League by surprise.

Unsurprisingly, this opportunity came from various mistakes within the Daoyi League.

These flaws can be roughly divided into two categories.

One category is related to the structure of the Daoyi League.

Whether it is the Universal Alliance, which is only about right or wrong, or the Kyushu Kyushu alliance in the name of helping the world, these two major alliances are essentially the most simple and flat gang alliances.

The structure is only three layers, and the top layer used to have two alliance leaders, and the two alliances obeyed the orders of their respective leaders.

Since the foreign barbarian rebellion 20 years ago, the two lords have disappeared, and most of them have died in battle, and both of them have gone away.

Before the Hundred Flowers Conference, the positions of leaders of the two alliances were still vacant.

After the Hundred Flowers Conference, the two alliances were disbanded.

The rest are the alliance and the gang.

At the league level, the various gangs are friendly, support each other, and tide over difficulties together.

At the gang level, mutual non-aggression and mutual non-interference.

In contrast, the composition of the Daoyi League founded before the two is much more complicated.

There are people like Han Wuyue, You Ming, etc., who are mostly unaffiliated or alone or in their own group.

There are wealthy businessmen like Yi Zhongren.

There are old aristocrats such as Nangong and Murong.

Since ancient times, there are bodyguards who have to travel from north to south, and are inseparable from the rivers and lakes.

There are also peddlers and pawns who open inns and rice farms, etc., who are obviously engaged in ordinary livelihoods, but have to deal with the rivers and lakes, and are on the edge of the rivers and lakes.

In addition to not daring to blatantly win over officials, or including members of the military into the alliance, various elements can be said to have everything that one expects to find.

Then according to the specific needs of the alliance, pull out various groups with distinct functions and a complete structure, and formulate corresponding rules to make the entire alliance operate healthily.

When he was trained by Han Wuyue in the Juyuan, Jiang Yichen had briefly looked through the roster that recorded the clear structure of the entire alliance.

The Doi League roster organized by Anbu first reflects the overall structure with tree branches, and then deconstructs each component in turn.

As large as a group, as small as everyone who is responsible for specific affairs, they are all clearly listed.

Even the most elaborate ingenuity will go wrong, let alone a league with a large coverage and complex organization.

Therefore, the occurrence of the first type of flaw is understandable.

Another type of omission arises from this.

In the Daoyi League roster, each person's name will be marked separately with the heavenly stem and earthly branch.

The ten days of stems indicate the direct interest relationship between each individual and the entire Damenghui.

The twelve earthly branches specifically distinguish the reliability of each person.

It is true that even if Anbu spends a lot of manpower and material resources to sort out and update the roster information every six months to make these text messages more valuable for reference, unpredictable people still cannot be avoided.

Those who are interested may not be trustworthy, and those who are implicated may not be unreliable.

The case of Qianzhulin Winery, which was smashed by Jiang Yichen, was controlled by Sha Qing hiding behind the scenes. Only by relying on small characters like Yu Tao and Hong Yue, he successfully leveraged the entire road from Taoyuan Town to Juyuan. The interest chain almost caused irreparable losses.

And the shepherds and tofu Xishi far away in Jingfeng Mountain, Jiangxi, these can be regarded as hidden stakes that have nothing to do with the Daoyi League. They instinctively live a stable and ordinary life without risk, but they have been grateful for more than ten years. I tried my best to do my best, even if I lost my life in the end, I never regretted or wavered.

The purpose of the Daoyi League is just like its name, and there is only the word "Daoyi".

Everyone's definition of morality is different, or the bottom line is high or low.

When the Daoyi League was in its glory, it was synonymous with morality in the entire Jianghu, and it was worthy of everyone's praise.

When the Daoyi League gradually turned from prosperity to decline, the morality that everyone was willing to uphold and maintain was beaten back to its original form, the bottom line was lowered step by step, and even the morality in the heart was completely abandoned.

According to Luo Piaoling's words, it can be imagined that the current Daoyi League is riddled with flaws.

If Jiang Yichen wants to find out these two types of mistakes, he can use known clues to follow the clues and investigate carefully.

It's just that the time required may be one year or two years, it may be three years or five years, or it may be longer.

All in all, the one-night long talk in the old temple in Luzhou County reversed Jiang Yichen's judgment on the attack on Xishan Island that year, and he began to be suspicious of the old man, prompting him to avoid the Daoyi League and come to Tingyu Pavilion.

However, the answer is hard to come by, and the negative assumption still lacks real basis to support, and everything is still inconclusive.

Either it is time-consuming and laborious to continue to investigate, or to ask the old man directly to understand.

The former is not the time.

The latter is because Jiang Yichen has not yet figured out how to deal with himself if the truth is indeed the same as the assumption.

Instead of hesitating, it is better to put this matter on hold and do something more urgent and meaningful at the moment.

Maybe with the progress of the next big situation, some clues that have been covered up in the past may surface, and the truth will come out without anyone being disturbed.

So, after shutting himself in the room alone for half a day, Jiang Yichen adjusted his state and joined the intensive preparations for the plan made by Tingyu Pavilion.

……

……

After five days.

Pinghai County.

dusk.

Usually at this time, the villagers just finished their day's work and went home to light a fire and cook. This is the beginning of evening life.

Villagers who were hunting, chopping firewood, or watering and fertilizing fruit trees to catch insects should have come down from the back mountain, so as not to be bumped into by the nocturnal beasts on the back mountain and make tooth sacrifices.

Today, a young man called Xiao Mantou in the village walked down the mountain with two other village companions, and suddenly found some treasure left on the mountain. He was afraid that people would know what the treasure was. Scarlet head politely declined his companion's kind offer, and hurried back to the mountain by himself.

Xiao Mantou is young, strong and flexible, and he often helps the villagers with farm work on weekdays, so he is very popular with everyone.

The two people from the same village had a good relationship with him, so they would not covet the treasure that they had never met before. Since the little man promised to return to the village before dark, the two had no choice but to go back to the village first to inform the shopkeeper Li of the Tongcuntou Inn. Voice.

Shopkeeper Li and Xiao Mantou are not natives of Hexi Village.

About ten years ago, the two came to Hexi Village one after another, and once lived together in the same house.

Shopkeeper Li was a little older than the little mangy, he was honest and capable of doing business, and two years later he married Zhang Erniu from the village, opened an inn, and lived separately from the little mangy.

Both of them are considered to be villagers, but because of their relationship during that period of time, they are naturally closer than other villagers.

After the two separated, they still lived as neighbors to each other. When the little man had nothing to do, he would go to the inn to do some handyman work. If he was in short supply or encountered any difficulties in life, shopkeeper Li would help in turn.

Now the little mango is going to the mountain, although it is not likely that there will be any moths, just in case, let shopkeeper Li keep an eye on it, if the little mando has not come back after dark, we can recruit people to go in together Mountain to find.

……

……

After the little mangy head walked up the mountain for a while, he looked down the mountain frequently to make sure that no one was following him.

Then he kept looking around to make sure that there were no other villagers.

The pace on his feet slowly picked up, and he went around to the east side of Houshan.

Speeding back and forth like a monkey all the way, presumably even a white-fronted worm with eye-catching eyes jumping head-on would not easily kill him.

When he stopped, he had come to a hillside with fallen trees, which was at least five miles away from where he was working today.

If the two previous fellow villagers could follow all the way here, I'm afraid they would really be aroused to see what rare treasures are worth hiding so far away?

After confirming that the scene in front of me is the same as what I saw a month ago, except that the leaves on the half side are more withered, the moss on the lower side is more dense, and the earth and rocks seem to have sunk a little deeper, the little mangtou said: " Here it is!"

Just as the voice fell, there was a rustle in the nearby forest, and seven figures walked out.
