Chapter 142: A Rare Blade
In the evening, it seemed to be getting darker than usual.
Wu Hanjiang still insisted on hurrying, but Huang Dafu didn't do it, he pointed to the inn in front of him, and said: "Obviously there is a big and comfortable inn, why don't we take a break."
Wu Hanjiang stepped out of the carriage and glanced at the wooden house not far away, "But after walking for half a day, we can go to the Dragon City."
Huang Dafu said like a scoundrel: "Walk for half a day, do you know how long half a day is, besides, it's getting dark, even if we get to see Dragon City, we have to find a place to eat and sleep."
Wu Hanjiang's temperament is always more impatient than others, but Huang Dafu is a chronic child.
It's okay to not stop, but once the legs leave the carriage, they don't want to go up again, and the long journey is really more tiring than hard labor.
Wu Hanjiang walked down, looked at Huang Dafu, who was lying motionless on the ground, and said helplessly: "Okay, let's stay here for the night and set off early tomorrow morning."
Huang Dafu hurriedly got up from the ground full of leaves, patted his buttocks, and said, "Order delicious food on the table first, and then sleep beautifully."
Wu Hanjiang looked at him speechlessly.
Walking to the door of the inn, there didn't seem to be many people in the house, Wu Hanjiang was very puzzled, "What's the matter, isn't this Wolong Inn overcrowded and in short supply."
He stood in front of the door for a long time, and then a person who seemed to be the identity of the shopkeeper welcomed him in, the shopkeeper naturally liked the guests very much, he walked over happily, and he was still happy when he saw him Huang Dafu, but somehow he was so frightened that he almost fell the moment he saw Wuhanjiang.
Wu Hanjiang hurriedly stretched out his hand to caress him, but the shopkeeper was so frightened that he hid aside, Huang Dafu felt that something was wrong, walked over and looked at Wu Hanjiang, and said, "What did you do to him?"
Wu Hanjiang was confused, "How do I know, he sees me like a ghost."
The shopkeeper ran a long distance before he said, "You are also here to kill?"
Huang Dafu said: "How can we kill people, you see us like bad people."
The shopkeeper looked at them for a long time before he slowly breathed and said, "It's not like a bad guy."
Wu Hanjiang walked in and said, "Then why are you scared like this."
The shopkeeper saw Wu Hanjiang walk in, stared at his sword without blinking, and said, "You...... Why are you not here to kill people?"
Wu Hanjiang was stunned by the question, and he really didn't know how to answer.
Huang Dafu grabbed it and said, "He, he is a Jianghu guest, so he naturally carries a knife with him."
It turned out that what the shopkeeper was afraid of was not Wu Hanjiang, but the knife in Wu Hanjiang's hand.
The manager said that there were no all kinds of people in the inn, and the shopkeeper would be afraid of a Jianghu guest with a knife.
Wu Hanjiang was also very curious, he walked over and said, "Have you experienced anything recently?"
The shopkeeper looked at Wu Hanjiang repeatedly, only to the point that he thought that Wu Hanjiang's face was not too bad, and he said with a little peace of mind: "Hero, do you know what happened to me in this Wolong Inn recently?"
Huang Dafu couldn't help but say: "What's the matter, is it that Wu Hanjiang attacked your inn, so you are afraid of him."
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Naturally, this hero doesn't matter, I'm just afraid of this knife."
There is a good saying, once you are bitten by a snake, you are afraid of the well rope for ten years.
The physical wounds will heal soon, but the shadow in the heart will still be there even after ten or eight years.
The shopkeeper led Wu Hanjiang and them into a room, and then said gloomily: "Guest officer, originally my business in Wolong Inn is famous far and wide, and it is overcrowded every day, so it is like now I can't receive a few orders of business in a month."
Huang Dafu asked curiously: "Why is that?"
Wu Hanjiang was also listening very carefully, and the shopkeeper said in a barely audible voice: "Just a month ago, in this room, there was a knife ......."
Wu Hanjiang was naturally attracted and couldn't help asking, "What kind of knife?"
The shopkeeper glanced at him, then at his knife, and said, "A very shiny knife, completely different from the one you hold in your hand."
Wu Hanjiang didn't speak again, and the shopkeeper's voice became smaller and smaller, "When that knife moved, it was like a dragon, an incomparably evil dragon, all the tables were overturned, and all the guests were scared to escape, and there were still a few Jianghu guests at that time, they didn't seem to be afraid of this evil dragon, and they really wanted to see ......."
Hearing this, Huang Dafu smiled and said, "People in the rivers and lakes are always very curious."
Wu Hanjiang glared at him.
The shopkeeper said: "Yes, these Jianghu guests are not only curious, but also very bold, they all want to see this evil dragon, so they all entered this room."
"What about the results".
"They all died, and they didn't shed a drop of blood when they died, and I couldn't even see any wounds on them."
"What?" Wu Hanjiang suddenly grasped the sword in his hand.
"But these people were by no means poisoned, because less than two seconds after they entered, the dragon stopped."
"Evil dragon, is there really a ...... in this world", Huang Dafu only felt that his throat was a little dry.
There was no joke on the shopkeeper's face, he nodded and said, "Of course, the evil dragon I said is just a metaphor, not a real dragon, but a person."
Wu Hanjiang suddenly raised his head and said, "A man with a knife in his hand."
The shopkeeper glanced at him and said, "Yes, a man with a knife in his hand."
Huang Dafu said: "According to what you said, this swordsman's martial arts must have reached the upper realm, but why did he kill people for no reason?"
The shopkeeper said: "He didn't kill people for no reason, but accidentally killed them by mistake."
"Manslaughter?"
"Yes, I remember he turned back to the guests and said that no one is allowed to go beyond three paces during a duel."
"Duel?and whom?", a glint flashed in Wu Hanjiang's eyes.
"Who? I don't know."
"How is the outcome of the battle?", Wu Hanjiang asked.
"I don't know who won, because I was so scared that I ran out, and I didn't dare to come back until the next day."
"So no one of you dares to live here from now on?", Huang Dafu smiled gloatingly.
The shopkeeper still had palpitations until now, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and gasped: "To be honest, I don't care no matter how big the loss of business is, I just hope that they don't come back, their martial arts are like a curse, and I have never seen anyone who can achieve the ability of a ghost."
Wu Hanjiang lowered his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "I want to know if the one with the knife in his hand has injured the other one in thirty moves."
The shopkeeper recalled it carefully, and hesitated: "It doesn't seem to hurt ...... Although the other had no knife in his hand, he didn't seem to be afraid, only the little girl beside him cried in fright."
"Little girl?"
"Well, they were just guests who had just moved in, and the little girl was scared."
"You're saying the swordsman took the initiative to stab?"
The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "That's right, the one who holds the knife is the one who does it first."
When Wu Hanjiang heard this, his blood was like agitated magma, he clutched the hilt of his sword tightly, and walked outside panting heavily.
