Willow Lane. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The moon has risen.

The moon has set in the west.

Dead.

The sound of bangs in the long street sounded: two long and two short.

Two more and two points.

The sound of bangs came from the long street outside.

Outside, watchmen walked around the corner of the street, with a lantern lit up almost dimly. The streets were dead silent, and occasionally two scavengers and people pouring incense slowly walked by.

In Yangliu Lane, the little one is half asleep and half awake. She opened her eyes as the bang sounded.

- She kept an eye on the movement in the courtyard.

- She rolled over, and no longer sleepy.

The piece of cloth appeared in front of her eyes—and she saw the handkerchief as she was collecting the medicine. In order to look more closely, she also deliberately walked over to him and sat down. She saw that the word "snow" was embroidered on it.

Xiao Qi got up and opened the door. The moonlight was shining, and the courtyard was dead.

She looked up at the courtyard next to her, which was also quiet, and there was no longer the hustle and bustle of the day.

She lifted her feet and walked out toward the blacksmith's shop.

As soon as Xiao Mi entered the yard of the blacksmith shop, he called softly twice.

"Who is it?" the blacksmith's voice rang out.

"It's me!"

The blacksmith lit the lamp, and he came out with his clothes and the lamp, and was a little surprised: "Miss Xiaoyi, are you unwell? Come, come inside and sit down!"

Xiao Qi shook his head and said, "I'm fine, I came to ask you, did he spend the night outside at night?"

When the blacksmith heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "No, he's not the kind of person who looks for flowers and willows, there doesn't seem to be a woman outside, it's you who think too much!"

Xiao Qi didn't care about his words: "Then does he usually go to night clinics at this time?"

The blacksmith shook his head: "No, who is okay and still call the doctor in the middle of the night?" He usually comes back early at this time and lies down." ”

Xiao Qi frowned when he heard this: "But he hasn't come back yet!"

The blacksmith was stunned for a moment and said, "Hasn't he come back yet?"

"Yes!" Xiao Qi looked at him with a worried face, "Somehow, I have a bad premonition. ”

The blacksmith listened, "That's bad, is something going to happen to him?"

Xiao Qi said: "I don't know, why don't we go out and find him!"

The blacksmith also seemed to feel a little unusual, and nodded: "Okay, but you haven't recovered yet, don't go, I'll go out and find it alone!"

Xiao Qi said: "I'm fine, it's okay to walk, I'll go with you!"

"All right!" the blacksmith saw that she insisted, and did not push back any more, and turned back to get dressed.

Under the lamplight, the little girl saw that the toddler was sleeping quietly on the bed at the moment. The sweetness of the face.

"Bring your weapons!" she instructed him.

The two went out into the long street. The blacksmith stood at the corner of the street with a lantern in one hand and an iron spear in the other. "Where are we going to find him?" he asked the little man who was walking beside him.

"The medicine seller said he was going to a house, so let's go there first! When the blacksmith saw that she was staggering, he hurried up and helped her.

Although Xiao Mi said that she was looking for her along the road, the blacksmith saw that she kept walking on one road, and sometimes he didn't even look at the alley on the side. The blacksmith had some doubts in his heart, but he didn't want to ask her, so he just perfunctory to her: there is no one here, and there is no one there.

After turning a few streets, and walking a long way on, they were standing in front of the gate of a large compound.

When the blacksmith looked up, he saw the three words 'Guixiangli' in the eye-catching words next to the lantern. As soon as he saw these three words, his face changed significantly, and he couldn't help but turn his face to look at Xiao Mi.

Xiao Qi didn't seem to notice his strange expression, took two steps forward, and said: "This is it, the medicine seller said that Guixiangli helped people see a doctor, you see, this door is still open, he may still be inside......"

"--Are you here looking for someone so late?" a faint and unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded.

When the two turned around, they saw a man with a large figure and a blue official uniform, holding a long sword and slowly walking out of the shadows.

This person's eyes are blazing, and his eyes are majestic, and he is the head catcher of Luoyang Mansion.

Empty Gap walked over with a cold face, and compared to his appearance, his words were full of kindness.

When the blacksmith saw that it was him, he was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but ease: "It turned out to be an empty catcher!

"You two are still concerned about the safety of others at this time, and it is also commendable!" He deliberately looked at the spear in his hand and said, "This gun is really a good gun!"

The blacksmith couldn't hear what he meant: that wasn't to say that he came out in the middle of the night with a weapon. You must know that civilians are forbidden to carry weapons openly in this city.

However, the statement of emptiness is already very euphemistic, and the blacksmith has seen other officials scolding the people with great anger: Secretly hiding weapons, intending to plot against Zhongliang?

The blacksmith pulled his gun in front of him and said, "I'm sorry, empty head." I was in a hurry just now, and I wanted to take a bamboo pole to hold a lantern, but I couldn't find it for a while, so I replaced it with this. ”

Kong Wuxi didn't seem to care about his this, and only asked: "Seeing that you are in such a hurry to find someone, could it be that something is wrong with him?"

The blacksmith said, "He should have gone home two hours ago, but by this time he had not returned." So we were worried and found out overnight. ”

Empty asked, "Who are you looking for?"

The blacksmith said, "It's a neighbor of mine! He's a doctor, and he's been here overnight, and he doesn't know what the situation is now!"

He looked at the little man and said, "Who is she?"

"She?" the blacksmith hesitated for a moment, "she's ......"

Xiao Qi walked over for a while and said to the empty space: "I am the doctor's daughter-in-law." My husband didn't come home all night, and I came out in a hurry to see if he had an affair!"

When she said this, the blacksmith was dumbfounded for a moment.

The empty man laughed, and said to the blacksmith, "This is the daughter-in-law of the Gu family." Well, I'll go in with you and look for it!"

Xiao Mi shook his head and said, "No need, this is my family matter, how dare I bother the official?"

He waved his hand and said, "It's okay, although it is your business to find someone, but entering someone else's house may inevitably cause some misunderstandings and disputes." If there is any emergency, it is safer to have my intermediary present. Besides, finding people also involves human life, and I also have a responsibility to find out the truth, don't you say?"

What else did Xiao Qi say, the blacksmith had already spoken: "Since we are so enthusiastic about the empty catcher, we might as well be respectful." He turned to Xiao Qi and said, "With the official here, he will preside over justice for us." ”

-- In the darkness, a series of shouts.

First it drops, then it slips, and finally it drops.

After only a few loud "oops" screams sounded, it was Yang Da's self-blame: "I'm really sorry, I messed up again!" He cried and hummed in the dark.

In the space where he couldn't see his five fingers, he couldn't see a few of them for a while, so he just asked casually, "Are you all okay?"

Qin Longxiu endured the pain and shouted, "My ass is on the ground, I'm afraid I won't fall lightly!"

Qin Longxiu said with a crying voice: "I was at the bottom, and she fell directly on me!"

"You didn't take the opportunity to take advantage of her, did you?"

Qin Longxiu just wanted to speak, but he suddenly shouted: "I said beauty, tap ......"

Xue's ruthless voice sounded for a while: "There's light up there, let's go up!"

A few people looked over, only to see that there was really a faint light in the corner. The light was faint, but in the darkness of the earth, it was undoubtedly their brightest beacon.

"Slow down, I'll explore the way and see if there's any danger!" Yang Da volunteered. A few people heard him limping over there, and heard him digging into the ground with a knife.

Shade sat there and stroked his feet, which were a little sore from falling, when he suddenly heard two crisp sounds of "popping", and Qin Longxiu's exclamation also sounded at the same time: "I said beauty, why are you beating me?"

Xue said in a ruthless and angry voice: "You know it yourself!"

"What do I know?" exclaimed.

Xue ruthless: "Don't think you take advantage of the ......" When she scolded angrily again, she stopped her voice again.

"What's the matter?" he heard her shouting as if she had forcibly stopped shouting for some reason. At the same time, Qin Longxiu's voice also shouted: "I said beauty, you are touching this hand, don't think that you can do whatever you want while it is dark!"

Then together they heard what was perhaps the most terrifying scream of their lives—the snow howling like a pig mercilessly.

- "There's another person here!" Xue cried out mercilessly and eagerly, and as she called, she rolled towards Koto Ryuxiu.

As soon as she said this, she was even taken aback. Not to mention the Qin Longxiu over there - Xue ruthlessly dodged and exposed him directly in front of what she called "there is still someone".

As soon as he wanted to lie down, trying to open his eyes wide to see the situation and listen to some sounds, he suddenly heard Qin Longxiu shouting: "The medicine seller - make a move!" He heard a deep muffled snort.

"Move?" "When he heard it, he almost didn't understand. When he could react, he clasped his hands on the ground and concentrated all his strength on his chest, and at the same time he pushed his feet forward - I don't know if he was lucky enough to kick out, just as he hit his foot.

The strength of his feet was not small, and the weight of the object was kicked back by him - "Move!" He did not forget to remind him.

"Ahh

When he asked him loudly what was going on, he felt something hit him again. In his frustration, he moved sideways, and the thing flew forward again, and then he kicked it again, and the thing was kicked away.

"There's a ghost!" Qin Ryuxiu shouted in horror again.

It was only then that the sun broke out in a cold sweat: when he had just passed by the object, at such a close distance, he clearly saw two hideous eyes, and those eyes were glowing like a glowing blood-red light.

"Run!" was the only reaction at this moment, because he saw that the light in the corner was getting brighter and brighter, and Yang Dazheng hurried down.

There was light in front of them, and the three of them had a direction for a while, and they ran over. Na Yang heard a strange noise early in the morning, and when he ran over, he raised the torch in his hand.

"Big man, beware of ghosts!" shouted Koto Ryu-su as he ran. Yang Da was also stunned when he heard it, but at this time, there was light, and several people were bold together.

Under the light of the torch, the dark room suddenly became distinct. The few men were silent again, and their eyes widened and they poked their heads out and looked around under the torches. They saw a black shadow shrinking in the far corner.

Yang Da straightened the big knife in his hand and strode over. The three of them also stepped forward with him, and they didn't dare to come out, so they stared at the black shadow and didn't move.

The four of them thought it was a person, and even if it wasn't a person, it was the "ghost" they had seen before. But when I got closer, there was only a black hole. The two of them had a hole side by side wide, opening under the wall. Yang stretched the torch into the hole, but saw that there was no head inside, how could there be any ghosts?

Qin Longxiu said: "It seems that the ghost ran away from this hole." Look at the old walls of this cave, there are traces of people walking in it, should we go in and have a look, maybe this is the exit!"

Yang Dadao: "Do you want to go in from here? There seems to be an exit over there, and there are stairs, and I see a large basement outside!"

Qin Longxiu: "Since there is a road, then we should walk better." Look at the gloomy inside, I don't know where it leads, and maybe the goblin is waiting for us inside! What do you say, the medicine seller?" he said to the sun beside him.

"If there is a road, let's go over and have a look!"

Xiao Qi: "Look, isn't this a medicine basket that hides the sun?"

When they entered the snow-free boudoir, they found the basket slanted to the side. The blacksmith picked up the basket and held it in his hand.

Pacing around the room, looking inside and out, he didn't find anything.

Blacksmith: "It's strange, this medicine seller usually values medicine more than his life, but now he has abandoned all this family here!"

Empty Gap frowned: "The last place he appeared should be here, and the owner of this house is gone, where will they go? This garden is big enough, I don't know if they will go outside, you stay here, I'll go outside to see!" he turned and went out the door.

The blacksmith walked up to the table and sat the little one, but looked at the two teacups on the table, and said, "Did he find out that we had come to him and really ran outside to hide?"

Xiao Qi said: "He doesn't seem to have a reason to deliberately avoid us!"

The blacksmith said, "That's a little strange, where do you think he's going?"

Xiao Yu: "Maybe he is really in that garden, and he will know a little when the official comes back!" The two had just sat down when they suddenly heard a faint sound of swords.

The blacksmith stood up suddenly: "It's not good, maybe something happened to the head catcher!" He picked up the iron spear and hurriedly walked out with Xiaoyi.

"Plop", a momentary roar, into a momentary silence.

On the surface of the pool in the garden, a series of ripples burst out, and they were swinging away one after another.

On the plank bridge by the pool, several masked men stood there, sword in hand, looking at the water.

May nights, cool.

The moon in the sky, cool.

"The water must be cold!" said a masked man's voice. The voice was a woman.

It turned out that the three were still women.

The three masked women, all armed with swords and dressed in black suits, were all standing by the pool with expressionless faces at the moment.

The rippling water, in the moonlight, everything is clearly visible.

At the edge of the pool, the railings of the plank bridge were scattered horizontally. Apparently they had a good fight here before.

"I can't imagine that this kid has two hits, if it weren't for us joining forces, he really wouldn't be his opponent!"

"No matter how powerful he is, it hasn't fallen into our hands, if he comes up later, we will ......" I only heard the sound of a busy splash on the water, accompanied by a panicked cry.

Gaps suddenly emerged from the water, and were flailing in the water. He shouted twice, then sank again, and when he came up again, he was coughing more than once.

"Yo! This head catcher seems to be a landlubber, I really can't see it!" the three masked women laughed for a moment.

"That's better, we don't have to do it!"

"Look at his tossing appearance, it turns out that the person who fell into the water is like this when he struggles in the water!"

"This is an eye-opener for you, you see his usual cold and empty eyes, what does he look like now? You know that this person should not be too arrogant!"

"That is, the so-called standing high, falling hard. You see his virtue, if those people see it, they really don't know what to think!"

"He looks like he's sinking!"

"This head catcher has a lot of personality, and he looks handsome, it seems a bit of a pity to die like this!"

"He just died, and he accidentally fell into the water and died, and it has nothing to do with us. I said, little sister, as soon as you see a good-looking man, you become so soft-hearted, I think sooner or later you will have to suffer in their hands!" The women laughed freely, and the blacksmith walked out of the rockery path.

The three girls stood there and watched the blacksmith calmly walk over with a lantern in one hand and the iron gun in the other.

When the blacksmith approached, he stood directly in front of them. When he saw the gap that was still struggling in the water, he threw away the lantern, picked up the scattered pieces of wood on the wooden bridge deck, picked up two or three and threw them into the water. Then a sword stopped in front of him, and a block of wood that he had thrown out was thrown aside.

Three masked women made a triangle and surrounded the blacksmith. Three swords pointed at him at once.

The blacksmith stood there with only his gun in his hand, and looked at them, but his face was not afraid.

"This strong man is so strong!"

"It's the first time I've seen such a big arm!"

"Yes, looking at him like this, he really looks like a powerful Donkey Kong. ”

"It's not just like Vajra, I think it's a little like the gods. ”

"He's so strong, he must be extremely powerful......"

"Yes, look at that arm, my thighs are not big enough for him!" the men looked him up and down around the blacksmith, whispering to each other.

Seeing this, the blacksmith stooped down again to pick up the remaining pieces of wood. As he threw it out, a sword "dang" out of the way.

The iron spear in the blacksmith's hand snorted and was raised horizontally.

"Behold, the big man is angry!" a masked woman laughed at him.

Another woman said: "He's a big guy, it's quite cute to get angry!"

"Cute is cute enough, but the way he looks, is it true--nothing on the surface!" The other woman said slowly, and as soon as she said that "there is nothing on the surface", the speed of her speech suddenly mentioned, and for a moment she saw a burst of sword light, and three swords were fired at the same time.

The words of the third girl sounded relaxed, and maybe made people cry and laugh a little. If it weren't for the fact that she had a sword in her hand and was wearing this dress, you might have thought that they were no different from ordinary women.

But sometimes, things just make you feel sudden, even unexpected. As soon as their voices fell, the murderous aura brought by those three swords may make you, who were still in heaven just now, fall into hell in one fell swoop.

The murderous aura in the sky, in that dazzling white light, suddenly burst into the wind and clouds.

The sharp sword, the spicy, flashed in front of you, and the sword is enough to kill you.

The blacksmith's huge body lay across the middle of the wooden bridge.

Every step he takes, it seems a little slow, even a little clumsy. When those swords were struck, he seemed to be standing there like a sword target.

In fact, maybe they have already used him as a sword target.
