090 The doorman

Starting from Wudang, you have to go to Butterfly Valley in northern Anhui, and the journey is not close.

If you just ride a horse, even if you only take shortcuts and small paths, it will take at least one or two thousand miles to travel, which will take a lot of time and energy.

Fortunately, there is a connection between the Han River and the Yangtze River between the two places, and it is much more convenient and faster to go down the river by boat than to travel on the ground.

Meng Xiuyuan hired a small boat by the Han River and went to Hankou. After arriving in Hankou, he changed to another Yangtze River boat and went east along the river.

After taking a boat into Anhui, Meng Xiuyuan heard that the boatman had almost arrived at the place and only got ashore after giving him enough ship fare.

He only knew that the Butterfly Valley was located on the shore of the Nvshan Lake in northern Anhui, but he didn't know much about how to go, so he could only ask the pedestrians around him while constantly adjusting his route.

I moved northward and ran for another two or three days, and finally found the Nushan Mountain.

Fortunately, this place is only so big, not as snow-capped as Kunlun, so it didn't take long to find a valley.

I saw seven or eight thatched huts were formed next to a clear stream, with flower beds in front, behind and on the left and right, and planted with flowers and plants. It was obviously the residence of the medical immortal Hu Qingniu.

But before Meng Xiu could get closer, three ugly old men suddenly appeared from the side of the road and shouted at him:

“Please stop if you come.

I don’t know your name, what happened to come to this Butterfly Valley?”

Meng Xiuyuan was stunned when he heard this. He wondered when Hu Qingniu had hired three guards.

However, when the other party's tone was quite polite, he was just a little wary, so Meng Xiuyuan didn't think about making things difficult for them, and said bluntly:

"When Meng Xiuyuan from Xiawudang came to this Butterfly Valley, he wanted to pick up my nephew Zhang Wuji back to the mountain."

However, unexpectedly, when these three old men heard these words, they seemed to be touched by the sensitive nerves. The three ugly faces covered with scars and skin changed color instantly, and their eyes were as sharp as torches, staring at Meng Xiuyuan up and down with serious faces.

After a long time, the leader approached a step forward and asked Meng Xiuyuan with a heavy voice:

"I'd like to ask, are you really the young master Meng of Wudang's 'Purple Sky Sword'?"

Through breathing, it can be seen that these three old men have outstanding martial arts.

In addition, the three of them are ugly and have a terrifying aura in their words and deeds. Ordinary people may have been scared by their urge to do this.

But when it is placed on Meng Xiuyuan, it is like a breeze blowing through the mountains and a bright moon shining on the river.

"Yes, what's the problem?"

Meng Xiuyuan was not angry either, but just replied indifferently.

"I dare not, please come with me and we will guide you."

After saying that, the old man turned around and led Meng Xiuyuan toward the yard, while his two accomplices were behind Meng Xiuyuan, one left and one right.

The three of them seemed to have accidentally surrounded Meng Xiuyuan with a triangular force. At the same time, their bodies were tightened secretly, and they were obviously full of caution towards Meng Xiuyuan.

Meng Xiuyuan was still calm and didn't care, so he followed them slowly.

Anyway, after entering the yard, everything will be clear, and I don’t want to waste my time.

"Wuji."

As soon as Meng Xiuyuan entered the yard, he saw Zhang Wuji sitting on the stone steps at the door holding a book and studying hard. Although the child had grown up a lot, his appearance had not changed much and he could recognize it at a glance.

"Uncle Master?!" Zhang Wuji raised his head, was stunned for a moment, and then recognized Meng Xiuyuan.

Although they spent a short time together, Zhang Wuji would never forget Meng Xiuyuan, the uncle who saved his life from the two elders of Xuanming.

While speaking, Zhang Wuji quickly put down the book in his hand and welcomed him to the door.

Seeing this, the three very alert old men around Meng Xiuyuan immediately calmed down and walked to the place where Meng Xiuyuan looked, no longer as if they were just going to do anything.

Then, the three of them bowed and bowed deeply to Meng Xiuyuan. The old man in the head said earnestly:

"Your Madam Meng, you are so kind, the villain Yin Wufu is rude.

We were unable to confirm your identity just now, so we have many offensive points, so I hope you will forgive me.

It's really the responsibility, I dare not neglect it."

Meng Xiuyuan suddenly realized when he heard this, and then he understood the identities of these three old men.

Since this person claims to be Yin Wufu, the two next to him should be Yin Wulu and Yin Wushou, and the three of them are slaves to Yin Susu's family.

Before the 100th birthday party of Master Zhang Sanfeng, they also went to Wudang Mountain and on behalf of their master Yin Tianzheng, they gave Zhang Cuishan a lot of valuable gifts.

At that time, Meng Xiuyuan was busy practicing the "Zixiao Sword Qi", so he only heard the name and never met him in person.

It's just that they are slaves, but in fact, these three people have a great origin. They were all well-known masters in the world in their early years. Later, they were rescued by Yin Tianzheng, the leader of the Tianying Sect. They were grateful for their kindness and made a vow to serve as slaves for life. They abandoned their former names and changed their names to Yin Wufu, Yin Wulu, and Yin Wushou.

Meng Xiuyuan thought of this, but couldn't help but feel a little alert. Because he couldn't figure out why the three of them were here to protect Zhang Wuji at the same time.

You know, although these three people are nominally slaves, they are also top players in the Tianying Sect. Even if Yin Tianzheng is worried about the safety of his grandson, he does not need to arrange the three of them at the same time under normal circumstances.

Even if the Tianying Cult has a great family and a great career, it cannot withstand the waste of such talents.

Moreover, when Meng Xiuyuan appeared just now, the three of them were a little nervous, obviously there was something hidden behind it.

So after leading Zhang Wuji to sit down again and exchanged a few greetings with him, Meng Xiuyuan turned his head and looked at Yin Wufu and the other two standing beside him, and asked directly:

"Butler Yin, I saw that when I just showed that I came for Wuji, you all changed your face.

But during this period, someone came to this valley to find Wuji's trouble?"

Yin Wufu nodded after hearing this and replied politely to Meng Xiuyuan:

"Your wise eyes are like a torch, and this is true.

In the past month or two, there have been rumors in the world that Mr. Wuji was alone in healing his wounds in this Butterfly Valley.

Many young people heard about this and were greedy for the news of the Dragon Slaying Sword. They thought that the opportunity had come, and they wanted Master Yu Wuji to be unfavorable.

There were many people coming from the open and secretly, some forcibly invading, some sneak attacks at night, and some who wanted to get in under the pretext of Hu Qingniu's medical treatment.

Although most of them are arrogant and ignorant people, it takes little effort to get rid of them.

But the Dragon Slaying Sword is too touching. Even though we have killed many people to establish authority and intimidate, there are still many latecomers.

You just said you wanted to meet Mr. Wuji, but we couldn't see the depth of your skills, so we were afraid that it might be a great enemy, so we naturally didn't dare to neglect it."

Meng Xiuyuan frowned slightly when he heard this, and sighed in his greedness that he could not even want his life for a illusory legend.

Then he continued to ask:

"Do you know why the news of Wuji's healing here will be spread?"

Yin Wufu shook his head:

"The villain is incompetent, and only found out that someone deliberately spreads the news in the world.

As for who it is, I have no idea yet."

Meng Xiuyuan immediately became silent. To be honest, if he thought about it so hard, it would be difficult to guess who was doing this.

Although Meng Xiuyuan was not afraid of anyone in the world, he was a little unhappy after all because of being plotted like this behind his back.

But unexpectedly, while he was thinking, he heard a voice of disdain suddenly coming from the room behind him:

"Hmph, you don't need to bother with the young hero of the Wudang Sect. This has nothing to do with you.

The person behind me was coming towards me, Hu Qingniu."
