In the dead of night, the full moon is rising, it is the time to sleep soundly, and all the people of Tingzhou City fall asleep. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the night, a black figure walked as fast as a fly, light as a swallow, and he jumped lightly onto the roof, running between the tiles and the ground, and finally stopped on the wall of a four-room courtyard.

There is a hundred-year-old tree just next to the courtyard wall, and the old tree has lush branches and leaves, and the canopy is like an umbrella. It's a good hiding place.

There are four rooms in this courtyard, with a shop connected in front and a room-sized connection between the backyard and the shop. During the day, merchants come and go, and those who need to discuss matters privately invite people to this room.

At this time, the lights were on in the room, and there was a faint sound of low talking.

The black shadow on the courtyard wall tiptoed slightly, and flew from the courtyard wall to the roof of the inner room, and he walked silently on the roof, found the best position, leaned down, and gently moved a red tile on the roof.

A gap immediately appeared in the roof, so that you could clearly see the situation inside the room, and the sound of the room could be clearly heard in the ears.

The figure was leaning on the roof, looking down through the gap.

Sitting in the room was a man in his fifties and dressed in good clothes, who was none other than the proprietor of the Li firm, Li Changsheng.

There are still a few people in the house, judging from their clothes, all of them are dressed as ordinary people, but a few of them are tall, and their speech and demeanor are full of momentum, and they are not owned by ordinary people.

The dark shadow on the roof frowned.

Li Changsheng in the room was pouring tea for a few people, and at the same time he was warm and polite, and his words were respectful: "Everyone, please use tea, this is the best Tieguanyin." ”

Several people were silent, and they took a sip of tea, and then a bearded man pouted: "It's not good!" "The accent is not native to Tingzhou, nor is it like the accent of other places in the Celestial Empire, and it sounds a little weird.

Listening to the bearded man's words, Li Changsheng was not angry at all, but said embarrassedly: "I don't know what kind of tea Mr. likes to drink, I will prepare it in advance next time." ”

The bearded man said disapprerovingly: "Ben, I don't like to drink these things from you, it doesn't taste as mare's milk wine." ”

"You want wine...... Li Changsheng said with a smile: "Which one do you like to drink, even if you don't have it in the Celestial Empire, you can find it below." ”

"Mr. Li is so powerful?" The bearded man smiled and smiled: "What is not in the Celestial Empire can be found, and the ...... on the grassland"

"Okay......" A thin man sitting on the other side interrupted the bearded man and glanced at him nonchalantly: "The wall has ears." Don't forget what we're here for......"

The bearded man glared dissatisfied, and before he could speak, the thin man said again: "I have never heard that there is no impermeable wall in the world, we sit within this wall, who can guarantee that there are ears outside the wall......"

The bearded man looked at Li Changsheng.

Fine sweat broke out on Li Changsheng's forehead, and he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, a few people, I will let people guard outside, and someone will definitely know." ”

The thin man snorted coldly: "Don't talk too much about everything...... and then said with a cold face, unscrupulously: "I want to run here, now they have something to ask us, why do we want to come to them, look at it again, when is it, no one has come......"

Li Changsheng's face was ugly, and he bent over and stood aside with his head bowed but didn't dare to talk.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside, and Li Changsheng hurriedly said, "I'll take a look." "Out of the room.

There was a sound of the door opening outside, and in a moment, Li Changsheng came in, followed by a tall man, a man with a face unique to the people of the Celestial Empire. He was worthy of a sword at his side, and his face was expressionless and cold.

Seeing the visitor, the eyes of the figure on the roof shrank sharply, and at the same time, holding his breath, he shrunk his existence even smaller, so as not to let the man find out.

As soon as the man entered the house, the atmosphere in the room suddenly cooled. No one spoke or greeted.

Li Changsheng had no choice but to politely invite the man in, and gave up his place to the man: "My lord, please take a seat, these adults have been here for a while." ”

"Hmph." The man snorted coldly, looking like he didn't want to stay for a minute, and asked directly, "What's going on today?" If it's the same as last time, I'll talk about it later. ”

"Pretending." The bearded man stared at the man coldly and said, "Don't try to use this excuse to prevaricate us again, the object of our cooperation is your master, not you." Your master has already agreed, what right does a dog have to say. ”

The man's eyes were shining, and he stared gloomily at the beard.

The bearded man was not afraid at all, but showed contempt in his eyes: "Think about your own identity, but now you have become a dog of the Heavenly Empire, are you worthy of your ancestors?" It was the grassland that gave birth to you and raised you, and now you still want to help the Celestial Empire? ”

Whether it is cynicism or ridicule, men can ignore it. But at the mention of the word ancestor, the murderous intent in the man's eyes was full, and his hand was held on the hilt of the sword at his side, and with a bang, the sword body had been exposed.

"Wait." If it weren't for Li Changsheng's quick eyes, the man would probably have drawn his long sword.

"Don't be impulsive, there is indeed news from the capital." Li Changsheng's face turned pale with fright, but he still had to risk being killed to step forward to dissuade him. On the other hand, the other people sitting in the room were just shocked for a moment, and then they all had a look on your face if you dare to do it, I will chop you up.

Li Changsheng secretly complained in his heart, why did this kind of errand fall into his hands. He decided that when he went back, he would hand over all the power to take care of the affairs to his eldest brother, and he would never care about these things in the future. No matter how much money you earn, no life is equal to fart.

The man pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, staring gloomily at the bearded men, not knowing what was in his mind, and after a while, he inserted the sword back.

Li Changsheng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

This move provoked ridicule from several bearded people.

The man suddenly became angry, and angrily pointed at a few people and shouted: "Don't think that I don't dare to kill you, I will avenge the revenge of the extermination sooner or later, and I will break you into thousands of pieces one by one!" Then he turned and left.

The expressions of several people in the house did not change, and they did not know if they could avenge the annihilation of the clan, but if the man wanted to kill a few of them, he could still do it. None of them knew about the man's martial arts.

After a while, the thin man spoke: "I said earlier, he is not the ...... for big things" and then stared at Li Changsheng coldly: "I deliberately chose such a person, I don't know what you mean?" Tell your masters, that it is now you who are begging us for help, and if you are not sincere, you will disperse early......"

Li Changsheng nodded and bowed, his usual majesty was completely gone, and he kept saluting a few people: "Don't be angry, a few adults......" scolded a few ancestors in his heart, otherwise you know that it is beneficial to you, will you agree?

At the same time, Li Changsheng was curious in his heart, and he didn't know what the capital had promised to cooperate with these people.

"No, he has to get rid of it first." A fat man who had not spoken suddenly said.

The bearded man looked at him, then nodded, "Yes." ...... for the future" and then beckoned to Li Changsheng: "Do you know where he lives......"

Li Changsheng's face was full of horror, and he kept shaking his head, he regretted why he was standing here!
