At the same time that Lonely Ling arranged for the three of them to stay in the side compartment of Lonely Garden, the Fuyun Inn in the east of Beicheng City was also welcoming a group of guests. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Shopkeeper, bring us two upper rooms!" A green-clothed girl was the first to enter the inn, and a loud voice like a yellow warbler interrupted the shopkeeper and Xiao Er's sleep.

"Yo, four guest officers, you have worked the road. But this ...... It's a step late, and now there is only one room left in the shop......" The shopkeeper frowned when he saw the girl in green, and said with a smile, "I'm really sorry, do you want to go to another inn?"

"We just came across the street. Why is this inn in Bay City full?"

"You know, our rooms have hardly been empty this month. Looking at your dress, you should be from the rivers and lakes, and most of them are here to see the new palace master of the Demon Palace, right?

"Not bad. The girl in green turned her head as she spoke, looked at the other three and asked, "What shall we do?"

"Who is it who has been looking east and west all the way and delaying the trip?" a young man in green clothes stood with his sword in his hand and said with a smile.

"It's the first time for people to go far away...... the girl in green bit her lip, moved her gaze to the woman in yellow on the right side of the young man in green clothes, and said coquettishly, "Third sister, who won't make a little mistake the first time." ”

"You......" The woman in yellow sighed lightly and looked at the man in white next to her who didn't say a word, "Second brother, it's always better to have a guest room than nothing, just take a break, and it doesn't hurt for us to sit for three or two hours." Why don't you just stay here?"

"You and Yu'er can stay. My seventh brother and I walked around. The man in white said lightly, but there was an undeniable majesty in his voice.

"It's fine. "The young man in Tsing Yi has no objection, or what the man in white decides, the three of them will not object.

"Second brother, seventh brother, next time there is such a thing, you stay, I'll go out. The girl named "Xuan'er" said flatteringly.

The man in white didn't speak, but there was a smile in his eyes. The young man in Tsing Yi glanced at Xue'er, and the look in his eyes seemed to say, "You'd better remember what you said", and then followed the man in white out of the inn.

"Brother Qi is really cautious. Yu'er muttered in a low voice, then hugged the arm of the woman in yellow and smiled, "Third sister, let's go in." ”

Since it was already nightfall at this time, and Bei City was in good order under the governance of its county, there was no one lingering on the streets, so naturally there was no candlelight. The man in white and the young man in green walked slowly in the darkness, only to feel that the city was extremely quiet, and there was no tension brought about by the gathering of people in the rivers and lakes.

"The new palace master of the Demon Palace is indeed a not simple character. The young man in Tsing Yi suddenly spoke.

"I'll walk around the north and south of the city, and I'll leave the west of the city to you. The man in white didn't say anything about the young man in Tsing Yi's emotion, but dropped such a sentence and swept towards the north of the city.

"At least listen to other people's opinions before making a decision!" The young man in Tsing Yi complained to the back of the man in white, and seemed to think of something, a treacherous light flashed in his eyes, and he turned to chuckle and muttered to himself, "Forget it...... Anyway, I haven't moved my muscles and bones in a long time. Hehe, just take this opportunity to see if my old two hands have been wasted. ”

North of Bay City.

The man in white covered his face with a black scarf, looked around, and then quietly approached in the direction of the craggy wall of the Demon Palace, and was about to explore the mystery of the craggy wall, but saw a young man in black jump down from a stone wall, and said with a faint smile:

"This friend, if you are here to pay a visit to the palace master, please come during the day tomorrow, and I will definitely be waiting here for you at that time. If you want to have something else in mind, please forgive us. ”

As soon as the black-clothed young man's voice fell, several figures flashed beside the stone wall.

"Dare to ask Your Excellency's name?" the man in white nodded and said in a dumb voice.

"On the lower Yu Steps. The young man in black was not dissatisfied with the man in white deliberately changing his voice, but replied with a light smile.

"Hmm. Excuse me. The man in white clenched his fists and said, then turned to leave.

"Rank Prince, will you let him go like this?" asked one of the figures beside the stone wall in a low voice.

"It doesn't matter. With his skills, I wouldn't have found out easily. It seems that he has no ill intentions. Merely...... I am afraid that the peaceful days of Bay City are not long left. ”

Yu Jie, one of the four attendants under Zhan Duxiao.

He Zheng, Lonely Ling, Jiao Ying, and Yu Jie, who grew up with Zhan Duxiao since childhood, are the most trusted people in Zhan Duxiao. The four of them were brothers when they were young, and although Yu Jie's age was the youngest, his skills were not too inferior to those of his three elder brothers.

The task of receiving visitors from the rivers and lakes this time was all entrusted to these four brothers. He Zheng and Lonely Ling were mainly responsible for the security of Zhan Dusk and the palace, while Jiao Ying and Yu Jie's guards outside the palace.

Although Beicheng is one of the important military places of Hengguo, it is a small city, and there are only about a dozen inns, wine shops, and tea shops in the city. Among them, there are two that can be as famous as the Fuyun Inn in the east of the city - the Junwang Inn in the west of the city and the Zuihuang Tower in the south of the city.

The Junwang Inn is because during the reign of Emperor Mo, the King of Wenjun, who was stationed in Beicheng and retreated from the army of Yiguo, lived here, and since then the original name of the inn has gradually been forgotten, and people's names have been passed down with the name of the Junwang.

Zuihuang Building, the most famous is its unique acacia flower brew. Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a phoenix who drank this wine by mistake and got drunk for three days and three nights, hence the name. The history of Zuihuang House is even the oldest among all the restaurants in Hengguo. However, because of this, the strength of the wine made by the acacia flower is no longer as mellow as the legend. But this wine is still a wine that must be tasted by those who are good wines.

~~~

At the time of the third watch, except for the faint sound of insects chirping in the Junwang Inn, it was quiet.

Suddenly, a dark figure jumped up to the second floor, groped along the corridor, and stopped in front of the first room. The dark shadow approached the window, listened intently for a moment, and realized that the person in the room was breathing heavily, obviously not a martial arts practitioner, so he shook his head lightly and took a few steps forward.

The black shadow repeated the previous action, and a flash of joy flashed in his eyes, as if he was extremely satisfied with the guests in the second room.

The black shadow stretched out his hand and slowly opened the window lattice about three or four inches wide, listened quietly for a moment, and made sure that the breathing of the people in the room had not changed, then squeezed in sideways, rolled on the ground for half a circle, and pressed against the table legs. This series of movements did not make any sound.

The dark shadow looked up and vaguely recognized a young man in his twenties lying on the bed, so he looked at everything on the bed with confidence. The dark shadow's gaze moved from the head of the bed to the end of the bed, and then quickly moved back to the head of the bed. It was a burden hidden by the man's shoulder on the inside of the bed that attracted the dark shadow's gaze.

The black shadow visually measured the distance between the burden and the man's shoulder, and decisively rushed to the side of the bed, his right hand and the man's body maintained a certain height, and reached into the corner of the burden like lightning, and then the three fingers that touched the burden flipped one by one, and the burden had come with the black shadow's right hand. At the same time, the black shadow took a step back with his right foot, and a beautiful turn fell back to the window, turning over and jumping out of the window.

The black shadow landed on the corridor, and his heart was happy, recalling the smell of wine emanating from the young man on the bed, he must have drunk a lot of wine, and it could be regarded as helping himself invisibly, and his lips unconsciously hooked an arc. When I opened the baggage, I saw a token and some silver taels inside. The black shadow's right hand slid over the surface of the token, recognizing the word "Tai" engraved on it, and immediately guessed the origin of the young man in the room.

The shadow took the token into his arms, rewrapped the silver taels, and placed them at the door of the guest room.

There was still a quiet place in the whole inn.

The dark shadow glanced from one end of the corridor to the other end of the corridor, thought for a moment, and chose to leave. The next moment, the man walked out of the inn as silently as he had entered.

After the black shadow left, the window of the third room quietly opened a crack.

The black shadow turned into a street behind the Junwang Inn, jumped onto the tallest pine tree on the side of the street, and landed again with an extra sword in his hand. The moonlight was projected on the face of the black shadow through the gap of the pine pine, and this person was the young man in Tsing Yi who had just been with the man in white.

The young man in Tsing Yi was about to walk to the south of Beicheng City to meet the man in white, when he suddenly had a strange feeling, and quickly looked around, but saw that the third window on the left side of the Junwang Inn was open. The young man in Tsing Yi recalled that when he hid his sword in the pine tree, all the windows were closed, and he immediately became vigilant and stared at the window.

In the third room of the inn, the person standing in front of the window next to the door seemed to realize that he had forgotten to close the window after he found the young man in Tsing Yi from the window facing the street opposite. This person subconsciously moved to the window, but he collided with the gaze of the young man in Tsing Yi under the window.

By the light of the moon, the two saw each other clearly.

The person in the guest room was the young master of the Chihua Weapons Company.

The young man in Tsing Yi obviously didn't expect that he had got an unexpected gain, and even successfully exited the inn, but suddenly found that all the movements were actually seen by another young man, so his left hand unconsciously clenched the sword in his hand, and raised it in front of him little by little, just waiting for the person upstairs to make a move, and his right hand was about to draw the sword.

~~~

At the same time, there were also two people facing each other on the eaves of the drunken Huang Tower in the south of the city.

One of them, a masked man dressed in white, needless to say, was the man who had left the rugged wall and had come to the south of the city to inquire about the situation. On the opposite side was a man dressed in a navy blue robe. The two looked at each other for a moment, and they both faintly felt that the other party's martial arts did not seem to be under him, and the man in dark green clothes immediately frowned invisibly and said:

"Your Excellency came to visit late at night, I don't know what advice?"

"You are the Doumen Master of the Star Altar, Fu Huan. The man in white stated lightly in an affirmative tone.

"Yes, it turns out that you know my identity, so you came to the door on purpose. It's a pity that I can still detect some movement on the eaves. ”

"You are a member of the Star Altar, and you are an enemy to me. The man in white still said unhurriedly.

"Hmm. The man named Fu Huan nodded, "I have many enemies, but there are not many enemies in the Star Altar. I want to see who you are. ”

As soon as Fu Huan's words fell, he was about to rush forward and remove the face towel of the man in white, but he didn't want a smiling female voice under the eaves to come up:

"Which cat should I be lying on the eaves and not walking, disturbing people's dreams, it turns out that the second brother Huan has a guest. ”

"Now that you're awake, let's take a look. You'd better not make a mess. ”

"Okay. I just don't know if this boy minds?" The person followed the voice, and saw a woman in a pink Luo skirt tiptoe lightly, silently landing on the side of the two.

The man in white secretly praised this woman's light skills in his heart, and looked to the side, but saw a woman who was about sixteen or seventeen years old, looking at him with a pair of smart eyes, and her eyes were flowing, indescribably charming. And under the moonlight, his figure is even more beautiful. Although the man in white knew that Fu Huan was the master of the Star Altar, he didn't know the elf-like woman in front of him, so he just nodded to her out of politeness in reply, and then moved his gaze back to Fu Huan's face, and at the same time approached him like lightning.

Fu Huan also took two steps forward, and the swords and swords in the hands of the two collided in an instant, and with a "choking" sound, a spark was drawn. When the spark was extinguished, the two of them retreated back into place as if nothing had happened.

The young woman standing on the side saw that the man in white just looked at herself indifferently, didn't even say a word, held her breath in her heart, suddenly realized something, restrained her smile and said coldly:

The people in the Moge Pavilion in the second room on the left moved, and Si Ze, who lived in the lonely country on the right, also woke up. If you want to fight or stop, you can watch it. ”
