Chapter IV
The oblique wind and drizzle, the spring mountain is empty, the smoke color is blurred, the silk rain is slow, fluttering and sprinkling.
On the aisle, there was a faint sound of carriages.
Five handsome horses with oily slickness and a fragrant cart carved with drapery drove slowly from the hazy rain, and the heavy wheels made a "creaking" sound on the waterlogged ground.
Five horses walked side by side, pulling a carved incense cart inlaid with gold and jade, and the crepe wrapped in the cart was waving in the wind, and the carriage passed out, and the fragrance was bursting.
The person driving was a woman in white with a hat, with a handsome face, red lips and starry eyes, slowly raising the whip in her hand, and hurried away without hurrying or slow.
A carriage that can be pulled by five horses will certainly not be an ordinary carriage, and the person who can ride in this kind of carriage will certainly not be an ordinary person.
Raindrops were dripping from the roof of the car.
In the carriage, bursts of laughter were heard from time to time.
Looking from the window, a man in blue and brocade was leaning against the window, his face was covered by a curtain of pearl light, but it could not hide the luxurious temperament of this person.
"Childe, did you get something?" a plain woman knelt opposite the man.
Between her and the man, there was a low table, on which lay an incense burner, in which precious herbs were burned.
The smell of this vanilla is delicate and elegant, and it makes people drowsy.
Nangong Yan half-squinted her eyes, holding the luminous cup in one hand, pillowed under her head with the other, leaned lazily against the wall of the car, and said with a very pleasant smile: "I have never been able to get something." ”
What he was talking about was the dragon pattern.
Of course, the plain-clothed woman also knew, but when she heard Nangong Yan say this, she couldn't help but laugh and said: "It's something that Gongzi's friend never can't get as soon as he makes a move." ”
After hearing this, Nangong Yan sneered and said, "Hmph, he is stealing things, I am buying things, but the two of us are different and do not conspire with each other, how can we be considered friends?"
Ying Ying, a woman in plain clothes, smiled and filled Nangong Yan's luminous cup with sake, "If it weren't for a friend, why would Gongzi willingly cause so much trouble for himself?"
Nangong Yan sneered, leaned against the wall of the car, and drank wine one by one.
The plain-clothed woman held the wine jug and poured Nangong Yan a glass of wine.
Another maid brought a cushion, put Nangong Yan's legs on the cushion, and then began to gently scrub it for him.
A man, being served by two beautiful women, is there anything more comfortable in the world than this?
Beauty, wine, money, status, in addition to power, Nangong Yan already has almost all the things that men desire, how can he not be happy with such a life?
Nangong Yan seems to have suddenly become boneless, his whole person is soft, every time he gets a treasure, he will become like this, lazy like a cat.
As Bai Luoshang once said, when she doesn't eat what she wants to eat, Nangong Yan is a fox, and when she eats what she wants to eat and eats her fill, Nangong Yan will become a cat.
Nangong Yan at this moment is a cat that dozes off after eating.
"Bring me my collection of good wines. The cat said lazily.
He collects all good wines, but there is only one pot of good wine that he can call good.
The plain-clothed woman soon brought a white porcelain wine jug and looked at Nangong Yan with a smile.
Nangong Yan also looked at her, and her eyes suddenly became a little displeased.
This woman actually just looked at the tip of Nangong Yan's nose and didn't do anything, as if the whole person was in a daze, and she didn't know that she wanted to take the initiative to mix wine with her master.
Nangong Yan raised her eyebrows and asked a little unhappily, "Didn't you wake up?"
The plain-clothed woman not only didn't realize her faux pas, but she didn't say anything, and the whole person looked like she was killed.
Nangong Yan was really unhappy this time, and frowned: "Why don't you pour me wine?"
The plain-clothed woman smiled slightly at this time, smiling a little helplessly, but she still didn't speak, not only did she not speak, but even lowered her head.
Nangong Yan became more and more unhappy, put down the hand of the cup, knocked on the table for a while, and said in a calm voice: "Why are you burying your head? I didn't let you do this." ”
The plain woman's head hung lower.
Nangong Yan narrowed his eyes because he found that this woman actually didn't listen to him, which made him feel very unpleasant.
The maid who beat his legs for him had already mentioned the wine jug, and then frowned slightly, she seemed to suddenly understand something, and a helpless wry smile appeared on her face, looking at Nangong Yan, she hesitated slightly and said: "Childe, this pot of wine ......"
Nangong Yan looked at her and hurriedly said, "How about this pot of wine?"
The maid sighed silently and said with a wry smile: "This jug is empty. ”
Nangong Yan frowned, stared at the white porcelain wine jug for a long time, suddenly sat up straight, slapped the table and scolded: "This bastard thief, he actually dares to steal from my head!"
The plain-clothed woman raised her head at this time, still with a smile on her face: "Fortunately, that bastard thief didn't steal all the wine, and the son still has wine to drink." ”
Of course, Nangong Yan still has a lot of wine to drink, but no pot of wine can be better than the one that was secretly drunk by Bai Luosheng. He didn't even bother to take it out and drink it himself, but he didn't expect to keep it to make wedding dresses for others.
Nangong Yan can only be angry alone, but what the plain-clothed woman said is very right, he still has wine, and Bai Luoshang did not steal all his wine.
Just as he was thinking about it, the carriage suddenly jolted, and the wine jug that had been placed on the low table fell with a clatter, and the clear wine poured out of the mouth of the jug.
Nangong Yan's face can no longer be described as angry.
The plain-clothed woman had pushed the door open and stepped out of the carriage.
Okay, how could the carriage suddenly jolt so strongly?
The woman driving the car took off her cloak and looked at a loose horse with a bewildered expression.
It turned out that it was because a horse suddenly broke free from the reins and pulled the whole carriage, and the carriage lost its balance, so it shook violently.
The plain woman also looked at the horse in surprise.
The horse's head was covered with a silver helmet, its body was covered with silver armor, its limbs were clasped with silver rings, and its reddish-brown fur was shiny with oil.
The five horses were all dressed identically, and four of them stood quietly in front of the cart with their reins on, except for the unleashed horse, which kept kicking and shaking its head, as if trying to get rid of the silver harness that was strapped to it.
The plain-clothed woman frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
The woman driving hesitated: "This horse doesn't know why it suddenly broke off the reins on its own......"
The plain-clothed woman hurriedly said: "Nonsense, how can you take off the reins yourself? This horse reins are all tied by my own hands, and the double-ring mandarin duck buckle, except for me, how can anyone untie it?"
"There's one guy who has the ability to do that. Nangong Yan said lazily, "This person can steal anything, he can enter any door, and naturally he can untie any button." ”
The plain-clothed woman was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Childe means that the bastard thief not only stole a pot of wine, but also stole a horse pulling a cart?"
Nangong Yan sneered.
The plain-clothed woman's eyes widened in disbelief, and she said, "So, all the eight-lock chain buckles of this whole set of harness were also untied by that bastard thief?"
"Who else do you think can undo these locks but him? What is the best thing a stealer is good at? Picking locks, of course. If he didn't have the ability to open the lock, he could still steal something?" Nangong Yan's expression was cold, and his face was as ugly as if he had been punched.
How can he have a good face after being stolen from a pot of good wine and a good horse being stolen?
He was not a generous person in the first place, even if he hid all the treasures in the world, he was not willing to share a little bit with others, even if it was a pot of wine and a horse, he was not willing. That's why Bai Luoshang called him Iron Rooster, but Bai Luoshang still plucked the hair from Iron Rooster.
The woman driving the car put the hat on her head again and whispered, "It is said that it is a horse stealing, but in fact, it is more accurate to change horses, after all, he also left a horse here." ”
As if in response to her words, the loose horse suddenly snorted loudly.
Nangong Yan didn't even look outside, so she coldly concluded: "Hmph, how can this thin and old horse be compared to my Wind Chasing Five Skulls!
The horse was not thin or old, but looked as muscular as the other four, and when put on the harness, it was no different from the other horses. However, whether a horse is a good horse or not does not depend on whether its appearance is strong enough, just like a person, not a burly appearance, and its strength can be great. Bai Luoshang will exchange this horse for Nangong Yan's horse, and it can be seen that this horse and Nangong Yan's five wind-chasing horses are simply out of reach.
The woman who drove the car didn't dare to say much, so she could only listen to Nangong Yan continue: "Which horse was stolen by the bastard thief?"
The horses all wore helmets, and if they were not taken down, no one could tell which horse had been replaced, and not everyone could untie the silver fittings that were put on the horses, so the woman driving the car could only be silent and did not dare to say more.
There was only one person who could untie the harnesses, and that was the plain woman, who had leapt out of the horse, jumped on the back of the loose horse, and quickly removed the silver helmet from the horse's head. I saw that she was slightly stunned for a moment, then put the helmet back on the horse's head, and then returned to the carriage, and said to Nangong Yan: "Stepping on the moon, chasing the sun, flowing flowers and flying fireflies are still there." ”
She could tell which horse had been replaced by just taking off her helmet, and how did she do it?
It turned out that two words were engraved in the dark corners on the inside of each helmet, the name of the horse.
The silver helmets on the heads of the four horses that were firmly held by the reins were engraved with the moon, chasing the sun, flowing flowers and fireflies, respectively, and the two words that the plain woman had just seen were......
Nangong Yan waved her hand and knocked over the moonlight cup, gritted her teeth and said, "This bastard actually stole my flying dust." ”
Feichen is the red and brown horse that was stolen by Bai Luoshang, and the four horses of Moonwalking, Chasing the Sun, Liuhua, and Yangyang, all of them are jujube red thousand miles of horses, and they all have a crescent-shaped white pattern on their foreheads.
Of course, the horses left behind by the white clothes are also reddish-brown, but there are no crescent-shaped white patterns on their foreheads.
The plain-clothed woman couldn't help sighing, I have to say that Bai Luoshang is really good at picking horses, and she will take away Nangong Yan's favorite horse with one pick.
Nangong Yan wanted to dismantle the entire carriage to vent his dissatisfaction, but he couldn't do it, because he was a stingy person, how could a stingy person be willing to dismantle such a good carriage?
Therefore, he could only scold Bai Luoshang thousands of times in his heart.
The empty mountains are fresh rain, the spring cold wet clothes, and the wind wakes up.
Nangong Yan's lazy drunkenness was also dissipated because of the fact that he was stolen by Bai Luosheng, and he couldn't help but be angry, but it was completely useless to be angry. The red and brown horse stolen by Bai Luoshang is Nangong Yan's favorite horse, and Nangong Yan's mood at this moment is as if she was covered in the quilt and punched, silent and painful.
The plain-clothed woman looked at the loose horse and hesitated, "Then what are we going to do with this horse?"
Nangong Yan said coldly: "I ate it." ”
The plain-clothed woman frowned slightly, "Then how are we going to get back Feichen?"
Nangong Yan said coldly: "Go to Liangzhou, wait." ”
At this point, the other side.
After the people of the Yacha waited to ride their horses back to the inn in the rain, they saw that the man in black was still drinking and eating meat, and he was not in a hurry at all. Looking to the second floor, the woman in Tsing Yi and a group of people in Tsing Yi had already left.
In the entire inn, the only person who can still be calm and idle is the man in black.
Zhang Qing was surprised in his heart, he originally planned to make friends with people, so he paced forward and bowed: "I don't know what to call this hero?"
The man in black still drinks and eats meat, and he doesn't even look at these rain-soaked men, and people like him certainly look down on these lackeys of the yamen, so he is not only unwilling to deal with this group of yamen just now, but even now he has no intention of paying attention to it.
Zhang Qing's face was a little unbearable, although there were no more people in the inn, but such obvious contempt still made him lose face and feel very embarrassed.
It's just that even if he is so ignored, he can only endure it and dare not step forward. Because I saw the tricks between this man in black and Nangong Yan before, although he only fought tentatively, he could see that this person had good skills. If you can't do anything, you can avoid it, this is a life-saving charm that you must know if you want to mix in the bloody rivers and lakes. Even if they still have the Black Flag Order in their hands, it doesn't guarantee that it will be their life talisman.
Zhang Qing turned around and walked away in embarrassment, and in the blink of an eye, he inadvertently saw a waist tag made of pure gold between the belt of the man in black, with a golden "fox" engraved on it, and a half-lying five-tailed fox.
This piece is neither deliberately hidden, nor does it mean to show off, and it is hung on the waist. With every move, the outline of the lettering will shine brightly. In the black room, it looks very eye-catching.
Five Fox Village?
Zhang Qing was secretly surprised, and immediately stopped saying a word. Just now, he only paid attention to Nangong Yan, completely ignoring this obvious waist card, and couldn't help but be secretly annoyed by his carelessness.
Although these five fox villages have a good reputation in the rivers and lakes, they are not famous and decent, and the ones they have cultivated are not good people. The people of Wuhuzhuang are notoriously evil in the rivers and lakes, all ruthless, evil, always do things according to hobbies and moods, regardless of morality, do a lot of evil, is a sect that is spurned by others.
There are five owners of the five fox villages in the past dynasties, respectively, five divisions of fire, blue, gold, black and white, each wearing a waist card engraved with the word "fox", the colors are different, they are red, blue, gold, black and white. Looking at this person's waist card, it should be the third-ranked Golden Fox.
It is not uncommon for people from Wuhu Villa to appear, after all, the prince of Oak Zhang Bang offered a reward of 1,000 taels of silver as a reward, and there is money to make ghosts, not to mention people.
It's just that the five foxes have a bad reputation, their methods have long been heard, and when they meet them, they must be very cautious in both words and deeds, not as a last resort, and must not be provoked.
So, Zhang Qing didn't dare to stay longer, this kind of person, he can hide, and it's not a good thing to get into trouble.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, Lu Yiping, who was following behind him, actually jumped up, pointed at the man in black and scolded violently: "What a bold man! Why don't you answer when I ask you?" Are you blind or deaf!"
Zhang Qing only felt that his scalp was tight, and he had forgotten about the organization for a while.
Lu Yiping arrogantly pointed at the man in black, his face was full of ferocity, and he said sharply: "The dog's eyes don't know your uncle, you still don't get up to talk!"
They are all afraid of them everywhere along the way, follow them, where have they been so despised? In addition, they lost Bai Luoshang first, and then Nangong Yan, and felt very unhappy in their hearts, and now when they meet such a person who blatantly ignores them, they naturally want to sprinkle anger on him.
Zhang Qing only felt that a basin of ice water was poured from his head to the soles of his feet, and his head was even tighter. His face had turned very ugly, and anyone knew that they had messed with the wrong people.
Lu Yiping didn't know what to say, and continued to scold: "I don't think you're blind or deaf, but you don't want to live, don't you?"
Who knew that he had just finished scolding, and before the man in black could look at him, he was punched by his eldest brother, only to hear Zhang Qing reprimand: "Dog fighting human power! Shut up Lao Tzu!"
was punched, Lu Yiping couldn't react for a while, covered his head in a daze, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Zhang Qing's face was pale, and he looked at the man in black quietly, and saw that the man's face was the same, but he didn't dare to be careless, and punched Lu Yiping again, and continued to scold: "Dog! Who do you think you are fighting for? You are fighting the prestige of the prince of oak, don't think that you can show off your power with the black flag order of the prince." If it weren't for the oak prince, you would think you would dare to fart here!"
Lu Yiping, who was stunned, just held his head and didn't dare to make a sound, he didn't know why Zhang Qing suddenly started beating him, but he knew that the leader must have done this because of the man in black in front of him. Because he found that the leader almost didn't dare to look at the man in black with his eyes, and his cautious appearance made him afraid at first.
Could it be that a terrible person?
The man in black had never looked at them with his eyes, and even now he didn't even glance at them, as if he couldn't see them at all, and he didn't even bother to give them a look of charity. This feeling of being completely ignored, somehow, is suddenly terrifying.
Zhang Qing saw that the golden fox had not reacted, and his brain was also tense, and he raised his hand towards the eyeless Lu Yiping in front of him, and there was a slap and a "pop" sound.
Tian Xiushu had a white face, first because of Lu Yiping's recklessness, and then because of Zhang Qing's actions. Although he was just standing on the side and watching, he seemed to be able to feel Zhang Qing's ruthlessness.
slapped it down, and naturally heard loud applause.
Tian Xiushu felt that his face was hurting.
Why is Zhang Qing suddenly so abnormal?
Tian Xiushu couldn't help but look at the man in black, almost just two glances, he found the waist card, and was immediately startled.
Lu Yiping had been beaten dumb, except for the rumbling tinnitus in his ears, he could hardly feel anything, he was completely stunned.
Why did Zhang Qing move such a heavy hand?
This is something that he can't figure out even if he wants to.
The man in black quietly glanced at the black flag order held by Tian Xiushu, and his face showed a grim and mocking expression.
It is unbelievable that the black flag order of the oak prince would be handed over to such a group of waste.
The man in black raised his head and took a sip of wine, thinking to himself, if he killed these wastes here, would he be hunted down by the white flag order issued by the oak prince?
If this is really the case, then he and Bai Luoshang, one with a white flag and one with a black flag, can be regarded as famous all over the world.
It's just that the man in black doesn't care about it.
What is the use of a white flag in exchange for fame? What he wants is those silver rewards from the prince of oak, and he is always interested in money, as long as he has money, he can consider anything. Fame outside of money is not something he cares about.
Tian Xiushu saw the inconspicuous emotional changes on the face of the man in black into his eyes, and he suddenly understood one thing.
The man in black was clearly deliberately giving them a horse, and the reason why the man in black wanted to do this was the black flag he held in his hand.
From this point of view, this black flag can't help but not bring them the benefit of saving trouble and convenience, but also invite them to trouble.
I can see it, but I don't dare to say it.
Holding the black flag in his hand, Tian Xiushu could only see it in his eyes, but in his heart, his mouth was always closed, and he didn't dare to say a word. Not only him, but no one here dared to speak, and no one wanted to cause trouble for themselves.
There were still a few people sitting in the building, and they couldn't help laughing when they saw this scene. It seems that they will be very happy to be cleaned up. Among them, many of them were dissatisfied with these officials because of the black flag order.
Among them, two people even took out a dice and bet on it.
One is thin and one is fat, one is young and one is old.
The skinny young man took a piece of wooden dice carved from wood and threw it into the bowl, and said to the fat old man sitting opposite him with a smile: "The red dot is the bearded hand first, and the black dot is the face with black eyebrows, which side do you bet on?"
The fat old man also took out a dice, a dice carved from jade, and said with a smile and a thin man: "Why don't we throw two dice, two red dots for the bearded hand first, two black dots for the face with black eyebrows first, one red and one black for the draw, how about it?"
The thin man agreed with a smile.
The fat old man said again: "Then I'll bet that the face with black eyebrows will be wasted first." ”
After saying that, the fat old man also threw the dice into the bowl.
How could a normal person carry dice with him? Only gamblers carry dice for gambling with them, and obviously both of these people are gamblers.
The thin man nodded and said with a smile: "Then I'll bet on the bearded man's hand first, and if you win, I'll invite you to drink." If I win, I want something. ”
The fat old man looked at him and smiled, "What do you want?"
The thin man's eyes looked at the dice in the fat old man's hand, and said with a smile: "I just want the dice in your hand." ”
The fat old man suddenly straightened his face and said unhappily: "You don't dare to ask me what these dice are used for?"
The thin man casually asked, "What are you doing with those dice?"
The fat old man said gloomily: "Of course it's used to kill people." ”
The thin man's eyes widened and he said in surprise: "How can the dice be used to kill people? ”
The fat old man sneered and said, "When I'm not gambling, I will kill people." ”
The thin man put the bowl with the dice upside down on the table, shook it, and said with a smile while shaking the bowl: "It's such a coincidence, when I don't kill people, I also gamble money." ”
The fat old man also put the bowl upside down on the table, shook it with his hands, and said as he shook it: "Kill people with that wooden dice of yours?"
The thin man smiled and said, "You think wood can't kill?"
The fat old man sighed: "A bean can be used as a killing weapon, let alone a dice, even if it is wood, it is not strange to use it to kill people." ”
The two men waved their arms, both with great strength, and the dice clanged inside the bowl.
They kept shaking, and shaking, and shaking, and shaking, so long that they seemed to have forgotten to open the two bowls to see the results inside.
Tian Xiushu looked at the two people shaking the dice quietly, these gloating people, looking at the excitement and entertaining others, seemed to have completely forgotten the Black Flag Order.
A gust of wind blew, making Tian Xiushu's heart begin to cold.
At this moment, a man in white walked slowly from outside the inn, his soaked shoes stepping on the mud marks on the ground.
The footprints stretched slowly from the doorway, and finally stopped in front of the golden fox.
The man in white had a dry face, sunken eye sockets, sunken cheeks, miserable white lips, and a sallow complexion, and the whole face did not look like the face of a living person. His eyes are blank, and he looks like he has no focus when he sees things.
He had a sword in his hand, the tip of which was bloody and solidified, but anyone could tell that it wasn't too long since the sword had killed people.
This bloodthirsty sword, even the rain that poured down from the sky could not wash away its contaminated blood.
The man in white didn't say a word, and sat down directly opposite the man in black.
He put his hand on the table, his fingers were long, the knuckles were thick, they looked like monkey's hands, wrinkled and rough, dirty and black, and his nails were full of black dirt. But in fact, it was not mud, but coagulated blood, the blood of many people.
The man in black didn't even look at it, but still drank to himself with an indifferent face.
The man in white sat opposite with a blank expression, looked at the man in black for a while, and asked, "These two people are performing for you?"
The man in black didn't raise his head, let alone answer.
The man in white glanced at the yacha, only to see that half of one person's face had been red and swollen by another person, and the person who did it had no intention of stopping.
"Get out. The man in white said a word, and his voice was very low and deep, smashing into his ears, which could make the listener's heart sink.
When Zhang Qing slapped out the slap when he heard this voice, he immediately took it back, looked at the man in white cautiously, his eyes suddenly widened, and he immediately pulled up the road and hurriedly walked away. His feelings told him not to linger any longer.
However, he didn't go far, and when he was sure that the other party hadn't noticed, he turned back and hid in the dark to observe the only two people left in the inn hall.
The eyes of the man in white fell on the man in black again, and he said for a long time: "How is your Excellency?"
The Man in Black did not answer.
The man in white said, "Would you like to compete with me?"
As the saying goes, the good ones don't come, and the ones who come are not good, this person dares to come forward alone to challenge, and he must have amazing ability.
"What to try?" The man in black did not look up, but put the wine glass to his lips and said, "Don't you see that I am drinking? If you want to try drinking, you can go and get a cup yourself." ”
The man in white looked at the wine glass held in the man in black blankly, and said, "I'm not here to drink, I'm here to kill." ”
The man in black drank slowly, completely not putting the visitor in his eyes, and said without changing his face: "I'm not here to kill, I'm here to drink." ”
The man in white said coldly: "How are you drinking?"
The man in black put down his wine glass and said lazily: "It's no worse than killing people." ”
The godless eyes of the man in white suddenly flashed, and he said coldly: "I don't want to compete with you in drinking skills, I just want to compete with you in killing skills." ”
The man in black lowered his eyelids and said unhurriedly: "I don't want anyone to try the kung fu of killing, I only want to compare the kung fu of drinking now." ”
The man in white said: "If you want to talk about drinking wine, who in the world can compare to the drunkard Yu Yanzi." ”
The man in black drank the wine in the cup and asked, "Who is Yu Yanzi?"
The man in white said: "You don't know Yu Yanzi?"
"I don't know. The man in black drank another glass of wine.
"But Bai Luoshang knows. The man in white suddenly laughed twice, the laughter was cold and old, like the sound of crawling out of hell, without vitality and life.
This person's voice is more frightening than this person's face. This burst of laughter alone can be creepy.
Zhang Qing, who was secretly watching them, the soles of his feet were already soft.
Not only Zhang Qing's face changed, but even the person who had bet with the dice before had already put away the dice and looked at the man in white with a shocked expression.
At this time, the focus in the inn has fallen on this unknown person.
No one knows who he is, only that he came from the rain with a sword, an unsheathed sword. The sword was used to kill, and no one knew who he had just killed, but everyone knew that he was now planning to use this sword to kill the golden fox, one of the owners of the Five Fox Villa who was sitting across from him.
The rain outside the door was a little heavier, and the mournful sound of the rain was like an endless cry. The dripping rain hit the ground, and the water vapor churned very badly.
The dark clouds pressed down thickly, and the whole inn became gray and dim.
The wind suddenly became stronger, and the windows around the hall crackled.
Zhang Qing, who was already completely stunned, suddenly shuddered, and it turned out that a drop of water had smashed on his back.
Water is naturally rain, and rain is naturally blown in by strong winds.
Zhang Qing came back to his senses and looked into the inn, it turned out that he was not the only one who was stunned.
Everyone looked at the person sitting opposite to each other with their eyes, the man in white did not hide his killing intent, and his sword became bright in the dim light.
If a sword wants to kill, it must be very fast, and the faster the blade, the brighter it is.
Despite this, the man in black still didn't look at the man in white, and since just now, he hasn't looked too far and looked at people. He drank wine with an indifferent expression, as if the person in front of him was simply air.
The man in white looked at the golden fox coldly, and said coldly: "You don't recognize Yu Yanzi, you should always know Bai Luosheng." ”
The golden fox laughed and said, "Now, if anyone says that they haven't heard of the name Bai Luosheng, I'm afraid no one will believe it." ”
The man in white squinted his eyes and asked, "Don't you want to know what the relationship between Bai Luoshang and Yu Yanzi is?"
"Don't want to know. The man in black poured wine with an expressionless face, he really didn't want to know at all.
But the man in white didn't seem to understand the man in black, and actually began to talk to himself: "They are the relationship between drunkards and drunkards, don't you also want to know what the weakness of a drunkard is?"
The man in black said with a wooden face: "I don't want to know." ”
The man in white said strangely: "Why don't you want to know? Aren't you looking for Bai Luoshang? ”
The man in black retorted, "Now that you know his weakness, is he doing it for you?"
The man in white was silent for a moment, and then said, "Compete with me, if you win against me, I can give you a lot of information about Bai Luosheng, including all his weaknesses." ”
The man in black sneered and asked, "Does he have a weakness?"
The man in white said: "Yes, of course he has." ”
"Oh?"
"Everyone has weaknesses, and Bai Luoshang is also a human, so he naturally has weaknesses. ”
The man in black asked again, "Does he have many weaknesses?"
The man in white said: "He has played many people alone, one identity and one weakness, and he naturally has many weaknesses." ”
"Really? That surprised me. The man in black finally raised his head, glanced at the person sitting in front of him, and said, "What do you want to compare with me?"
The man in white raised the sword in his hand and said, "Competition." ”
The man in black shook his head and said uninterestedly: "The result of the competition is nothing more than two situations, one horizontal and the other vertical. ”
"There are exceptions, and not necessarily one horizontally or one vertically. "Humane in white," Once, Bai Luoshang and Yu Yanzi competed, and the ending was that both of them were found sideways. ”
The man in black said: "That's because they're all drunk. ”
"You know that this matter has never been known to a third person except those two people. The man in white looked at the man in black, "You said you didn't know Yu Yanzi, how do you know?"
The man in black said: "I don't know Bai Luoshang either, but I've just heard of it." However, the competition between two drunkards must be to try it on the table first, since they are drunkards, they will naturally drink endlessly. You just said that this matter has never been known to a third person, so how did you know about it?"
The man in white didn't want to answer the question of the man in black, he said in a slow voice: "Once, Bai Luoshang and Qiu Lifeng competed, and the result was that two Qiu Lifeng came out vertically in front and back. ”
The man in black said: "The one who came out later is the real Qiu Lifeng." ”
"Oh?"
"According to Qiu Lifeng's character, if he is the one who comes out first, then there will definitely be no one behind him. ”
"Yes, if Qiu Lifeng comes out first, it means that his opponent is dead. The man in white stared coldly at the man in black and said, "You are very smart." ”
The man in black did not speak.
The man in white said: "So you don't have any curiosity, you will see anything more clearly than others." ”
Looking at the sword in his hand, the white-clothed man Mu Ne's eyes showed a trace of disappointment, "You have no curiosity, you are not the opponent I am looking for, and you are not worthy of my sword." ”
The man in black poured himself another glass of wine, and tasted it slowly, not in a hurry or annoyed, as if he couldn't hear anything.
The man in white was gone, and his footsteps were unusually slow, as if he was dragging his feet.
It wasn't until the slow and dull voice could no longer be heard that the black-clothed man looked up and looked towards the door, a look of incomprehension flashed on his face.
The man who came from the rain walked into the rain again.
The churning water soon submerged the white figure, and the man in white left nothing but mud prints on the ground, and took nothing with him.
It wasn't until the wind died down that the atmosphere in the inn gradually warmed up. Drinking drinking, upstairs going upstairs, as if nothing had ever happened.
Zhang Qing, who had been stiff in the dark corner for a long time, secretly wiped a handful of sweat.
The man in white had an oppressive cold air all over his body, which made him stand far away, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
That's a real killer, and a killer who doesn't hide his killing intent at all. He is bloodthirsty, and from the moment he saw the golden fox, he did not hide his killing intent. He was definitely a man who had crawled out of hell, because his looks, his voice, and his actions were like a walking corpse without the breath of a living person.
Zhang Qing was terrified when he watched on the side, he thought that a master duel was inevitable, he thought that someone would definitely bleed and lose their lives here.
However, a gladiatorial battle that was about to break out was dissolved in this way. No one moved, no one bleed, no one lost their lives.
While breathing a sigh of relief, he inevitably felt a trace of pity. The master's move is definitely a rare and wonderful duel, and it is a pity that I can't see it with my own eyes.
Tian Xiushu and Liu Qing, who were following behind Zhang Qing, saw that his face changed flickeringly, and they couldn't help but be nervous and didn't dare to squeak.
The majestic momentum of the man in white also shocked them, almost overwhelming them speechless.
Originally, a golden fox had already scared them, and then with such a dangerous person, they only felt cold sweat all over their bodies, and their feet were weak.
After the golden fox finished drinking, he got up and went upstairs and went back to the house to rest.
Liu Qing looked at the back of the golden fox and asked Zhang Qing in a low voice, "Big brother, who is the person in white?"
Zhang Qing was silent for a while, sighed and said, "I don't know, but he must be a powerful killer." ”
Liu Qing looked at the dense water vapor outside the door and asked, "How does the eldest brother know that the person is the killer?"
Zhang Qing squinted his eyes and said, "Did you see his hand holding the sword?"
Liu Qing said strangely: "What's wrong with his hand?"
Zhang Qing groaned and said in a low voice: "The nails of that hand are full of blood. ”
Liu Qing said dumbly: "How is it possible?"
Zhang Qing smiled bitterly, "I also hope that I am wrong, but I am very sure that those mud-like things are human blood." Only hands that have been killing people for many years and stained with blood will accumulate black blood stains in their nails. ”
Liu Qing's face had become a little stiff, and even Tian Xiushu, who had always been meticulously observant, couldn't help but stiffen all over. He really didn't notice the man's fingernails, and all his attention was drawn to the sword.
"Who is the man in black?" asked Liu Qing in a low voice, he hadn't seen the person's identity yet.
"Do you see the waist card hanging around his waist?" Zhang Qing said, "It's a golden five-tailed fox waist card." ”
Liu Qing said strangely: "What is the five-tailed fox waist card?"
Tian Xiushu looked at him with a stiff face and said, "You've heard of Five Fox Villa, right?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the company was shocked and sweated.
Liu Qing jumped up even more and said in surprise: "You mean that person is from Five Fox Villa?"
"That's right. Tian Xiushu said, "If you guess correctly, that person is the golden fox who is the third in line." ”
When Liu Qing heard this, he also felt a chill in his heart, and he took a breath of cold air in fear, and then felt a chill in his back.
Tian Xiushu said with a solemn face: "There are five owners of the Five Fox Village in the past dynasties, divided into five divisions of fire, blue, gold, black and white, and it is said that the owner of each branch wears a waist card engraved with the word 'fox', and the colors are red, blue, gold, black and white. Looking at this person's waist card, it must be the third-ranked Golden Fox. ”
Liu Qing hurriedly said: "According to rumors, these five foxes are brutal and evil, insidious and shameless, cold-blooded and cruel, ordinary and strange, and they make many killings, and the Five Fox Villa can be said to be extremely vicious and evil sects. As the saying goes, good and evil are not at the same time, how could the prince use such a person?"
In the eyes of the so-called famous and decent people, a sect like Wuhu Villa is naturally a "foreign way" that is despised by people.
Liu Qing thought for a moment and asked, "Didn't the person in white see the identity of the golden fox?"
Tian Xiushu shook his head slowly and said, "Maybe he knew the identity of the golden fox and came to challenge him." ”
When Liu Qing heard this, he shouted in surprise, and said, "Since you know his identity, you have to step forward to challenge, could it be that the man in white is even more powerful than the golden fox?"
Tian Xiushu was silent for a while, and he couldn't answer this question.
Liu Qingcha saw that Tian Xiushu didn't answer, so he didn't continue to ask, because he knew that a person with his identity was very far away from such a Jianghu person, if it wasn't for chasing Bai Luosheng, he probably wouldn't have seen these Jianghu people walking on the tip of the knife in his life.
"I don't understand, why did the eldest brother straighten his head like that just now?" Liu Qing asked puzzled.
Zhang Qing spat and scolded: "Lao Tzu beat him to save his life." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
Zhang Qing clenched his fists fiercely, but did not explain.
Tian Xiushu had already seen Zhang Qing's thoughts, so he had to answer for him at this time: "If the eldest brother doesn't beat people first, wait until the golden fox makes a move, do you think we still have our lives? The eldest brother did it first, that is, to tell that person that we are the people of the oak prince, since he is also the person sent by the oak prince, for the sake of the prince's face, it is naturally not good to embarrass us again." What's more, we still have the Black Flag Order in hand. ”
"In that case, it's good for the eldest brother to tell him directly, why do you have to put such a heavy hand?" Liu Qing looked at Lu Yiping's bloated face, and couldn't help but quip: "What is this guy's face swollen into, I have never seen his face so round." ”
Zhang Qing snorted and scolded: "Idiot, what do you know! This is called 'strike first', my side is the first to move, that is, to give that person a step down, since I have already done it, it is not good for him to do it again, and he can get by on face." ”
As he spoke, he sneered disdainfully, "Nowadays, all the people in this river and lake who have a little reputation think very highly of themselves and are very proud. For the sake of his own face, even if he takes care of the oak prince, he will never let people go easily. If I don't give him a breath, and when he does it, the road will be a dead end. ”
It sounded a little self-righteous and clever, funny and ridiculous.
The two men who had thrown the dice suddenly burst out laughing.
Zhang Qing and the others couldn't help but look at the two of them.
The thin man blinked and laughed, "I thought there must be something wrong with my ears." ”
The fat old man also smiled, "There is nothing wrong with your ears, there is something wrong with someone's brain." ”
The thin man squinted at Zhang Qing and the others, and said with a smile: "I don't think these people have a brain problem, but they don't have a brain at all." ”
The fat old man chimed in: "Generally speaking, people who work in the yamen basically don't have brains. ”
The thin man uncovered the upside-down bowl, and the carved wood dice showed red dots, and he squinted his eyes and smiled: "You also open, see if you win or I win." ”
The fat old man opened the bowl, and the jade carved dice were black spots.
The thin man lamented: "It seems that we will not lose or win." ”
The fat old man also regretted: "It can also be said that we all win and lose." ”
The thin man glanced at Zhang Qing and the others, and grinned: "Actually, we all lost, because those two people have neither hands nor faces." But I still can't understand that it's a miracle that such a brainless person can get a black flag order. ”
Zhang Qing shouted at the two of them in a loud voice: "Dare to ask the two Your Excellencies' surnames?"
The thin man sneered: "You don't need to ask our names, I just ask you, this black flag order was really handed over to you by the prince of oak himself?"
Zhang Qing immediately widened his eyes and said sharply, "What do you mean by this?"
"He means you're all stupid. ”
A brisk voice sounded, and then I saw a boy with drooping temples walking in with an umbrella.
The boy was wrapped in a cotton coat, but only a pair of straw sandals were under his feet, and the shoes were wrapped in a thick layer of mud, and it seemed that he had walked a lot. I saw him put away the umbrella, then walked to the thin man, and said in a heavy tone: "Grandma asked you to hand over the dice to me." ”
The thin man unwillingly handed over the dice carved from wood, and said unhappily, "I didn't use it to kill people." ”
On the side, the fat old man also helped to speak: "He is just using it for gambling money." ”
Hearing what the fat old man said, the little boy with sideburns immediately straightened his face and said very seriously: "Even if it is used for gambling money, it can't be used, my aunt and grandmother said that it must be taken back." ”
The fat old man couldn't understand, "Who is that aunt and grandmother you are talking about?"
Xiao Tong explained with a straight face: "It's his father's aunt and his father's sister." ”
The fat old man looked at the thin man with a surprised expression, "You actually listen to your aunt and grandmother like this." ”
The thin man shook his head helplessly: "I have always only listened to money, my aunt is rich, of course I have to listen to her." ”
The fat old man smiled and asked Xiao Tong, "Then where is your aunt and grandmother?"
The little boy replied with a straight face: "In Xingdu." ”
The fat old man said strangely, "Then how did you get here?" I walked all the way with this thin man, and I didn't see you following him. ”
Xiao Tong was dissatisfied: "I am not following him, I am following him, of course you can't see me." ”
"How did you get here?"
"Walking. ”
The fat old man had to be surprised, they came on horseback, this little boy actually dared to say that he came on foot, could he walk as fast as a horse?
The boy took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to the thin man.
There was a piece of paper wrapped in a handkerchief, and two words were written on it: Liangzhou.
The thin man looked at the two words and said slowly: "Grandma is planning to let me go to Liangzhou?"
Xiao Tong only said, "Grandma asked me to hand over the things to you, and nothing else was said." ”
The thin man used the handkerchief to wipe the moisture off the child's hair, sighed, and then smiled bitterly at the fat old man: "It seems that we can't gamble for a while." ”
The fat old man patted his chest and smiled, "It's good that I have another one here." ”
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Tong immediately stretched out his hand to the fat old man and said, "Grandma said it, yours should also be handed over." ”
The fat old man glared dissatisfied, "Why should I give it to you?"
The little boy said with a straight face: "Grandma said that you can't gamble for money." ”
The fat old man also straightened his face, "My dice are not used for gambling, but for killing." ”
Xiao Tong said: "It's not okay to kill people. ”
The fat old man was almost so angry by the child's attitude that he jumped up, and said indignantly: "Who is your aunt and grandmother? Why should I listen to her!"
Xiao Tong glanced at him and said, "Because she is your grandson's aunt and aunt of your son." ”
The fat old man stared, and suddenly blushed, although he was an elder brother, he couldn't help but listen to his own sister, because he was also the same as the thin man, he only listened to money. My sister is in charge of money and food, and he needs money to eat, so he has to listen to his sister. Therefore, he could only take out the jade carved dice, and could only cry and sigh: "It seems that before we get the reward, our grandfather and grandson have to temporarily quit gambling." ”
