Chapter 1779 Where is my brother-in-law?

Nowadays, Yang Yiyi is already very famous. Not everyone in the world has seen her, but they have definitely heard of her.

When they meet, they basically call her Miss Yang, or just call her by her nickname Tigress, or call her ‘Yiyi’, which is usually a name only people who are close to her would call her.

Yang Yiyi herself was also very puzzled. How could there be any acquaintances near Erlang Mountain? She was already very surprised to meet Ran Xiaoyi.

Having heard the sound, Ning Xian’er did not rush to take action, and the person who was attacking from the corner also came out.

This was a group of men in black who hid their heads and showed their tails. The leader pulled off their veil.

Yang Yiyi was very surprised when she saw it:

“Sister Hongyu? Why are you…”

This person is Yang Yiyi’s senior sister Zhang Hongyu.

The last time they met was at Wujiazhuang. At that time, Zhang Hongyu came to find Yang Yiyi and asked her to go back to Qingshanmen to have a look. Then she said that she had something urgent to do and could not stay there permanently. She left after staying for one day. (See Chapter 1458 for details)
“I want to ask you something else.”

Zhang Hongyu was about to say something when she heard hurried footsteps coming from behind Yang Yiyi. It should be the bandits catching up.

“This is not the place to talk. Let’s talk while we walk.”

Zhang Hongyu was surrounded by a dozen people, all of whom were skilled fighters with good kung fu skills. The two groups joined together.

“Aren’t you in Wujia Village? Why did you come to the North?”

“I heard that the North was in danger, so I came to take a look.”

“You, this northern land is dangerous, why do you, a little girl, have to come here to join in the fun?”

Zhang Hongyu looked embarrassed. She had never thought of asking Yang Yiyi to come to the north to help because she knew it was too dangerous here.

Yes, Li Chengxi also knew it, but Yang Yiyi didn’t listen.

“Sister, why are you here too?”

“Oh, that’s a long story.”

Coincidentally, Yang Yiyi also has a long story to tell.

“I and a group of heroes were investigating the unusual behavior of the bandits in the north recently. We found that they wanted to enter Erlang Mountain, so we came in first to investigate.”

Oh, so the traces found before were left by you.

As soon as they entered Erlang Mountain, everyone discovered traces left on the snow by someone using light skills, who was only one step faster than Yang Yiyi and the others.

Although Li Chengxi later felt through various clues that this group of people should not be the same as the bandits, but who would have thought that it was Zhang Hongyu.

Zhang Hongyu is one of those people who is unknown in the world but plays a very important role.

She was not with them when they went to the Western Regions, but detailed information such as the route taken by everyone to the Sirius Cult, the number of people in the Sirius Cult, etc. were all sent back by Zhang Hongyu and others.

Even when they went to southern Xinjiang, Zhang Hongyu was the first to enter southern Xinjiang for investigation with her husband.

After the incident in the Western Regions was settled, Zhang Hongyu had been running around the martial arts world, looking for clues about the lackeys of the Tianlang Cult. He only stayed in Wujiazhuang for one day and was very busy.

After that, he immediately ran to the North. He was an unknown but absolutely indispensable intelligence officer.

Originally, they would report the information to Shen Qingluo and the other sect leaders after they had collected it, but before they could return, Yang Yiyi arrived right after them.

However, compared to Yang Yiyi’s rich harvest, Zhang Hongyu and his team had been monitoring the bandits’ actions in secret and had no intention of searching for treasure. They didn’t even know that there were treasures here.

Not long ago, I saw bandits rushing in here. I found that this is a relic with a style very close to that of southern Xinjiang. It seemed that the bandits came here to look for something.

Although I don’t know what it is, I must not let them succeed.

So Zhang Hongyu followed a group of heroes and rushed in to fight.

It was Zhang Hongyu and his group who had attracted the bandits’ attention in the room before, which was considered a favor they helped without either of them knowing.

He stabbed Qin Yan when they met, purely because Qin Yan was dressed like a bandit (which was not wrong), and he didn’t even see who she was, and only realized something was wrong after he stabbed her.

At that time, she was ready to put away the knife, but Ning Xian’er shattered the blade with two flicks. This was roughly the process. Yang Yiyi was surprised when she heard it:

“There is miasma at the entrance of Erlang Mountain. How did you get in, Sister Hongyu?”

“Your brother-in-law led us in. He seemed to know this place.”

what?
So what do you say?
“Where’s my brother-in-law?”

“We split up to deal with the bandits in the maze, and elsewhere.”

As he spoke, Zhang Hongyu took out a copper whistle from his bosom and blew it hard.

The rapid whistle sounded from far away, and within a few seconds, a vague whistle sounded from the corner of the maze.

This should be some kind of secret signal, telling everyone to retreat.

“Yiyi, what’s wrong with you guys?”

Zhang Hongyu was even more curious about this. After all, Yang Yiyi’s team not only included the famous Cold-Faced King of Hell, but also the thieves from the Sixteen Villages, even two monsters, and a bunch of people from southern Xinjiang.

The appearance of this group in the North is indeed of great concern.

“I can’t explain it clearly in one or two sentences. Wait until we get out.”

“Well, follow me. I know the way.”

After saying that, he quickened his pace and led the way.

Zhang Hongyu has an amazing memory. She only walked through this maze once, but she actually memorized the route in her mind.

Since Yang Yiyi and her group had never been on this road before, if they hadn’t met Zhang Hongyu, they would have had to go through many detours in it. But with Zhang Hongyu leading the way, they never hit a dead end. Except for taking a few more detours, they headed straight for the exit.

When there is a fork in the corridor in front of you, and it is a convergent fork, you know that you are back to the entrance of the maze.

Yang Yiyi and the others rushed out, and just then another group of men in black came running over from the fork in the road.

At first, the group was frightened when they saw the monster in the team, but they immediately noticed Yang Yiyi and Ning Xianer and knew they were their own people.

Zhang Hongyu greeted him and turned to Yang Yiyi and said:

“Look, the one leading the way is your brother-in-law Qu Hua.”

Qu Hua is only about thirty years old, not too old, but seven or eight years older than Zhang Hongyu. He may be traveling frequently, so he looks weathered and older.

I always feel that Zhang Hongyu might like this, is she into older men?
Zhang Hongyu stepped forward and explained a few words, probably to Yang Yiyi and the others, and then walked back with Qu Hua.

“My name is Qu Hua. I didn’t expect to meet you all here.”

Everyone quickly clasped their fists in return.

“You are all here too, so you must know what those bandits are looking for. Did they succeed?”

This question was asked to Ning Xianer. She was the most famous and had the highest martial arts skills here, so she should be the leader, so naturally she had to be asked.

But Ning Xianer is a socially anxious person. She is fine in front of acquaintances, but always looks aloof in front of strangers. It’s not that she doesn’t want to say it, but she can’t say it.

So Qin Yan immediately followed up:

“We have already investigated the matter. The bandits came for some treasure, but we have destroyed it. We have to get out now. This is not a place to talk. We don’t know when it will collapse.”

Qu Hua obviously wanted to ask more questions, especially when he saw Ran Xiaoyi and the other people from southern Xinjiang were also there, he was quite curious.

However, as soon as Qin Yan finished speaking, everyone felt a rumbling sound under their feet.

It felt like the sound of something extremely heavy falling to the ground, passing from my toes to the back of my head.

This doesn’t feel good, and it’s definitely not the place to talk.
