The Legend of the Condor Heroes: From Being Expelled from Peach Blossom Island

Chapter 50 Yandang Sect

Wu Chengyu was greatly surprised when he heard this. He turned his head and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had tried his best to cover it up, but how could this girl reveal the truth herself?

The key point is that people who don't know the truth would really think that he took the initiative to walk away, revealing the girl's location. How unfair it is.

The girl reacted in time and shot several plum blossom darts from under the car towards the captain. Then a red shadow rolled out from the other side of the car and rushed towards the crowd watching the excitement.

One of the plum blossom darts was shot straight at Wu Chengyu, but fortunately it was not powerful enough and Wu Chengyu dodged it easily. Now Wu Chengyu was embarrassed, as he knew that the girl must have misunderstood him.

The constables were in a panic after being shot at by the plum blossom darts. Some of them who were slow to react were hit on the spot. Only after the chief constable gave the order did they rush forward.

The woman quickly turned her head to glance at Wu Chengyu and shouted, "You little bastard, how dare you ruin my good deeds? I will remember you." As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared from the crowd in a few flashes. Her lightness skills were amazing.

Instead, the detectives collided with the crowd, the scene was so chaotic that they couldn't catch up.

Wu Chengyu's eyesight naturally saw the woman's appearance clearly. She had a baby face and was pretty, not stunningly beautiful. Her temperament was more like a beautiful girl from a small family, but her eyes were bright and slightly fierce. In short, she didn't quite fit Wu Chengyu's aesthetic taste.

When he heard the harsh words the woman said, he scratched his head in embarrassment, and at the same time saw the teasing looks of Brother Lu and others.

"I said I just wanted to help her, do you believe me?" At this moment, Wu Chengyu really felt that he was being wronged.

Brother Lu also shook his head and smiled bitterly. If they had not experienced life and death together and had not trusted Wu Chengyu very much, they might have thought that Wu Chengyu had deliberately harmed them just now.

"Alright, we can't help anymore. Let's go now while the city gates are unguarded. That girl looks quite clever, and her martial arts skills were extraordinary. I don't think those constables can catch her."

Wu Chengyu could only swallow the bitter fruit of having good intentions but having bad results. He was really helpless afterwards. He carried A Ku back into the carriage and left this embarrassing place.

The group soon walked on the official road, which was still a bumpy dirt road. Wu Chengyu's new carriage seemed to have a slightly stronger shock absorption function, and the feeling of this journey was much better than before. At least A Ku did not vomit this time.

It is more than two hundred miles from Qingyuan Prefecture to Shaoxing, and it takes at least two days for a carriage to travel. We must spend the night on the way tonight.

But this time it was not a ruined temple. Wu Chengyu was afraid that another ruined temple would come.

According to Yu Xiaowu, there is an inn halfway along the way, which is exclusively for use by court officials and soldiers. It does not accept civilians passing by. However, the manager of the inn opened a large carriage and horse inn next to the inn, which is specially for passers-by to stay overnight. The conditions are acceptable and it is safe on weekdays.

At the hour of Xu that day, Wu Chengyu and his party finally arrived at the inn. It turned out to be quite large, with the yard alone being several hundred square meters. Behind the yard was a row of small second-floor buildings and two rows of houses. When Wu Chengyu and his party entered, quite a few people had already gathered in the yard, with bright lights and a lot of noise.

The waiter at the inn recognized Lu Zhiyi at a glance and hurried forward to greet him. "Sir, you have finished your business and are about to return. The rooms in the inn are all ready for you. You are tired from the journey. Sir, you and your companions should have some food first. I will bring hot water to your room to soak your feet in the evening."

While looking at the people in the compound, Lu Zhiyi casually threw some change to the waiter. The waiter's eyes lit up and he immediately put it into his sleeve. It was obvious that the more generous Lu Zhiyi was, the more enthusiastic and thoughtful he was.

"There are quite a few customers in the store today. We're sharing a room with two people, so we need at least six upper rooms. Is that enough?"

"Enough, absolutely enough. My lord, although there are many of these guys, they are all poor. There are not even many who can sleep in the big bunk beds. Most of them are staying in this courtyard tonight and they all bring their own dry food. They think five copper coins per person is too much. I don't want to pay any attention to them."

"Have you ever asked where they are from? Why are there so many people here all of a sudden?"

"No need to ask, most of them are street vendors and some running snack stalls. The farthest one is from Yandang Mountain. I heard that there is an annual temple fair in Shaoxing, and these poor people want to make some money at the temple fair, so they come here every year."

Yu Xiaowu at the side also interrupted and said, "That's right. Starting from the day after tomorrow, for ten consecutive days, my restaurant has made a lot of money every year because of this temple fair." Lu Zhiyi nodded. He saw some clues from the people in the courtyard, but now was not a good time to speak. After everyone settled in the room, they went to the southeast corner of the courtyard and sat down. The waiter immediately brought up several sets of bowls and chopsticks and a large bowl of soup noodles.

"My dear guests, our inn is simple and we don't have any fine wine or food, but our soup noodles are famous. We make the soup with lamb bones and lamb trotters every day. A bowl of hot soup noodles will definitely make you feel refreshed. Eat as much as you can, there's more."

Lu Zhiyi sent the waiter away and invited everyone to eat, while speaking in a low voice.

"Everyone should be more alert when sleeping at night. I think these vendors are all from the Yandang Sect."

"Yandang Sect? Old Lu, please tell me more about it. I don't usually care much about these martial arts sects."

"The Yandang Sect is actually a martial arts sect made up of peddlers and merchants who travel the world. It's more like a chamber of commerce than a sect, where everyone sticks together for warmth. There aren't any real masters, and they focus on business and believe in making money through harmony.

This sect has never had any bad records. The reason we need to be careful is because this sect is still part of the martial arts world, with good and bad people mixed together, so it's inevitable that there will be some bad people."

As soon as she finished speaking, Sister Niu immediately lost interest, opened her mouth wide, and poured most of the bowl of noodles into her mouth. However, Wu Chengyu looked towards the yard twice.

When Lu Zhiyi saw Wu Chengyu, he thought the child was interested in martial arts, so he said a few more words.

“It is said that the old leader of the Yandang Sect passed away suddenly a few months ago without leaving a will. As a result, his subordinates have been fighting over the position and still haven’t chosen a new leader.

There's a temple fair going on right now where they can make some money, and these people haven't even bothered to choose their leader position, but are instead running out to participate in the temple fair. It's truly a unique sight in the martial arts world."

Wu Chengyu nodded and said nothing more. The reason he looked at the Yandang Sect disciples twice more was that he remembered that there was a wonton seller He Sanqi in The Smiling, Proud Wanderer who was from Yandang Mountain. He thought he was a descendant of the Yandang Sect. Most of the characters in Jin Yong's novels were of the same lineage. This proved that there were too many things to explore in this world.

Wu Chengyu's brows suddenly twitched at this moment, as if he wanted to laugh, but he seemed to be at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He was too embarrassed to speak and could only remain silent.

As night fell, the inn gradually became quiet. Except for the snoring coming from Sister Niu next door, the whole inn was peaceful.

Wu Chengyu lay on the bed with his hands under his head. He first practiced the Bilang Heart Method for a while, and then practiced the Guisun Method. He had just acquired this skill not long ago, and he could not breathe according to the requirements of the Guisun Method all the time, let alone continue to practice the Guisun Method in his sleep.

Once you master this Kung Fu, you will benefit from it for life, but it is much more difficult to get started than other Kung Fu.

Soon an hour passed and Wu Chengyu was drowsy. At this time, he smelled that familiar fragrance again.

These two chapters are added for everyone's monthly votes, and also because everyone feels that the two chapters in the morning are too boring, so I try my best to compensate.

I still have to mention Lord Wang, the governor of the Nine Gates. He voted for the monthly ticket just after 12 o'clock last night, but the result disappointed him. I hope he can be recognized again.

But I don’t have many drafts in stock. A bunch of new furniture just arrived, and I have to assemble it next.

The chapters that were modified today mean that all the drafts of the following chapters need to be revised. I hope there will be enough time in the evening.

Thank you again for your encouragement and support.
