Chapter 230: The Sword Light and Sword Shadow in the Western Suburbs

"Go back, miss. ”

Behind a rockery on the left side of the front hall of the Qin Mansion, Yan'er held Qin Min, who was trembling slightly, and said softly.

Qin Min watched Marshal Wu turn away angrily, and saw his father's lonely and old back, and for a while sadness came from it, and tears fell big drops.

Turning around silently, she walked towards her small courtyard, and when she walked to the door again, she shook off Yan'er's hand and coldly instructed her: "Tell my father, I promise to marry Jiang Li." ”

Yan'er's face immediately appeared with joy and disbelief.

"Miss, I'll go. ”

Entering the house alone, she sat silently on the edge of the bed, raised her teary eyes and looked at the quiet and somewhat dark room, at this time the west was already a ray of sun.

"Chang Yuening" she muttered to herself in a low and shallow voice, hatred and love, despair and sadness were intertwined in her face hidden in the shadows, making her originally beautiful face a little distorted and ugly.

When the fine moon rose to the middle of the sky, a black figure fell silently on the roof of the Juxiang Pavilion, and after looking back and forth, he floated down.

Stretched out his hand and took out a paper-thin dagger from his arms, gently inserted it through the crack in the door, clicked slightly, the deadbolt inside was picked up, and the man in black stood at the door, and did not push the door in time, but listened attentively before gently pushing the door open.

Lifting his foot lightly, he stepped in.

The frosty moonlight shone through the screen window slightly, making the qiē in the room hidden in the unreal weak light, and the man in black quietly looked at all the qiē in the house, and finally locked his gaze on the stairs in the corner of the house. Walked over gently.

Looking up at the bend of the stairs, he didn't go up, but turned back and walked between each of the bogu shelves in the room, as if looking for something.

Juxiang Pavilion is no different from the ordinary goods store on the street, a wooden two-story building, with goods below, people living upstairs, and two doors in front and back.

Just as he reached out to take a jade plate, a ball of light slowly floated down the stairwell in the corner.

The man in black flashed towards the largest shelf in the corner.

"Who are you?" The man in black, who had just leaned against the shadow of the shelf, suddenly heard a cold question, and after a little stunned, he slowly flashed out of his figure.

The person who came down the lamp upstairs was the shopkeeper of Juxiang Pavilion. I saw that he was dressed in brown clothes at this moment. His expression was stern and cold.

With the light in his hand, he looked coldly at the man in black in front of him, seeing that he was wearing a black blindfold, although he couldn't see his entire appearance, but the figure under the black robe was handsome and straight, which made him stunned for a moment.

"You don't look like a robber. Shan Shuanghai asked. Although there was some hesitation in his tone. But he still showed his sophistication and shrewdness.

The man in black faced him. After a while, he said: "I heard that when the King of Yanlongning County went to Jiangli, he transferred a batch of goods from here, all of which are the best in the world, so I have come to see why Juxiang Pavilion has such an ability to have so many jewels and jade." His voice sounded a little hoarse. Obviously not his original voice.

Shan Shuanghai was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, his smile was clear and easy-going under the light.

"If it's just such a question, a friend can ask me during the day, and I'll tell you the reason. He slowed down, and then went on slowly:

"Juxiang Pavilion is a well-known old shop in the world, and it has been famous in the world when it left right. All the business is jewelry, jade, calligraphy and painting treasures.

Because the purpose of Juxiang Pavilion is to do business, not to accept bribes and bend the law, and not to do underworld business. Do not be enemies of the government, do not collude with the people of the rivers and lakes, and keep secrets for customers, so it has gathered good credit for a hundred years. Moreover, there is a jade jewelry master in Juxiang Pavilion, and the carved things are the only one in the world, so those dignitaries and nobles are also willing to take their treasures to Juxiang Pavilion and let the masters of Juxiang Pavilion make zuò to help operate.

King Ningjun's mother was the former princess of Dalong, so when he went to Jiang Li to propose marriage, Emperor Dalong specially customized a batch of treasures for him in Juxiang Pavilion. Do you have any other questions?" he replied politely.

The man in black was silent for a while, and then said lightly: "I heard that this is not the case, those treasures seem to be related to a mysterious figure in Dalong, and that person has disappeared in Dalong for sixteen years, and what I really want to inquire about is that person's subordinates."

"Who the hell are you? If it's for this, then you're doing something wrong, Juxiang Pavilion has a commitment to keep customers confidential, and that's not something anyone can break. ”

Before the man in black's voice could completely fall, he was interrupted by the deep voice of Shan Shuanghai.

Hearing him say this, a faint smile appeared on the corner of the black-clothed man's mouth: "The boss is too worried, I'm just curious, and I heard that there was a batch of goods stored in the Juxiang Pavilion, and I think that the Xuan Wangfu has long been empty, and I am afraid that no one will ever put forward that batch of goods, so I came to see if there is anything I like." ”

He said that the clouds were light and the wind was light, but the face of Shan Shuanghai became more and more calm.

"Hmph, since the founding of my Juxiang Pavilion, most of the treasures in the world have come from my Juxiang Pavilion, but have you ever heard that the Juxiang Pavilion has been stolen or robbed. His tone became colder and colder, and his whole body exuded a cold momentum, faintly crushing towards the man in black.

It was only in the blink of an eye that a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Good kung fu. He said softly.

The corners of the black-clothed man's lips were faintly cold.

"Your Excellency is also good at kung fu," as soon as his body moved, the person suddenly floated in front of Shan Shuanghai, and stretched out a hand as if to choke his neck.

The single and double sea figures carrying the lamp slid silently to the side like bats in the dark night, followed by a hand suddenly slapped out, and a fierce palm wind only pounced on the man in black.

The man in black flicked his sleeves to meet his palm, and the moment the sleeves and palms met, Shan Shuanghai's face was shocked again.

The sleeves that floated over seemed to be as light as a cloud of smoke, but when they met his palm again, the power in his palm wind was invisibly dissolved like a mud cow entering the sea, forcing him to quickly withdraw his palm.

"Who is your Excellency?" he asked again.

"A man who is curious about everything. The man in black replied softly.

After a breath of silence, Shan Shuanghai slowly put the lamp and candle in his hand on the lampstand on the side.

"Does Shopkeeper Shan mean to do something with me here?" the man in black asked coldly, looking into his eyes.

Shan Shuanghai was stunned, looked around the store, and then said coldly: "That is the case, Your Excellency will say a place." ”

The man in black walked out the door gently, "Western suburbs." ”

Before the words fell, the figure had disappeared without a trace.

Under the light of the lamps and candles on the side, a trace of different color flew under the eyes of the single and double sea, and then dispersed. Walked out the door.

"Optimistic about the store. He commanded lightly, and then the figure moved, and the figure disappeared into the cold moonlight.

In the wilderness on the western outskirts of the Imperial Capital City, the man in black stood quietly and looked at the scattered trees around him and the autumn grass swaying back and forth in the night wind.

The two looked at each other quietly, the same calm and condensed, only the robes fluttered up and down in the night wind.

Gradually, the dead leaves scattered on the ground flew up from the dead grass one by one, slowly spinning, like butterflies flying in a moonlit night, light and graceful.

Suddenly, a cold light flashed, and there was already an extra sword in Shan Shuanghai's hand, and the blade of the sword poured a cold light like water, and went straight to the man in black.

The man in black stood quietly, the light in his eyes stared closely at the oncoming sword shadow but did not move, just when the sword was about to pierce the center of his eyebrows, he saw his figure slightly to the left, and at the same time stretched out a hand, waved his sleeve at will, and with an invisible force, he ran towards the single and double sea.

Suddenly, Shan Shuanghai turned the sword in his hand sideways, blocking it in front of his chest, and in an instant, a gust of wind rose, and the dead leaves flying around the two of them seemed to encounter a strong force, and all flew towards the man in black, with sharp blades.

Then the blade slashed out again, and a sword light slashed at the man in black with traces of water flowing through the moonlit night.

"Good sword. ”

The faint man in black said a word, stretched out a hand to catch a leaf flying in front of him, and then threw it out seemingly casually.

It was like a swallow's wings slashing across the water, cutting off the blade of the sword. Following his figure was spinning freely, and then shaking his robe, countless fallen leaves shot towards the single and double sea like arrows off the string.

Frightened, Shan Shuanghai suddenly flew up in the air, and even so, a corner of his robe was still cut off by a leaf.

It was too late to be afraid, and in mid-air, he once again swung his sword like water, and stabbed at the black-clothed man opposite with a murderous aura.

An invisible smile swept from the corner of the black-clad man's mouth. The figure became more and more elusive with the attack of the opponent's sword, and the whole person was stuck to the sword like a shadow, making Shan Shuanghai unable to shake off.

After about an hour of fighting, the man in black suddenly floated away from the sword.

"The good kung fu of the shopkeeper is here today. This sentence only sounded in the ears of Shan Shuanghai after he had disappeared without a trace.

When all the dead leaves fell, a figure quietly appeared behind Shan Shuanghai.

He didn't speak, but only accompanied Shan Shuanghai silently to look at the silent night sky, and the dark mountains not far below the night sky.

"Can you tell who he is?" the man asked in a low voice.

Shan Shuanghai shook his head, and his mouth moved slightly. The man behind him nodded slightly, and then the two of them disappeared into the night.

After everyone had gone, two more black figures stood out from the grass not far away, and a few of them disappeared without a trace. (To be continued......)
