49. Jiu

As the sun set, the sky grew darker and darker, and the bright glow on the horizon became redder and redder, red like the red satin on the girl's clothes, and like blood dripping on the ground and washed away.

Jiang Xiyi walked out of Lijiazhuang, this time she came out of the main gate, she didn't ask Qiao Feng to send him off, and she also made an appointment with Mount Tai the day after tomorrow.

The sunset fell on her shoulders and body, as if draping her with a hazy veil, and even her always pale face seemed to be flushed, adding a bit of fireworks to her.

At the end of this road, there is a small inn, selling food and wine, and there are many rooms for passers-by to live, but the business here has not been very good, because although it is in Tai'an City at the foot of Mount Tai, it is not the only way to go to Mount Tai, and tourists and travelers who come and go will not come here to find a place to stay, not to mention, this inn is not a famous big inn, but an ordinary small shop on the side of the road.

The shopkeeper was also very content with this, he knew that there would never be any big business here, and he also knew that as long as he sold the land and replaced it with the section of the road that Mount Tai had to pass up, his business would be much better. But he remained in this place, guarding the shop.

At dusk, a strange group of customers came to the shop, both men and women, dressed in simple clothes, all white. White is very clean, but it also looks unlucky to ordinary people like them, and there is often only one situation when so many people wear white. These people in white were strangely tight, all of them were very good-looking, each of them had a sword, but there was no sadness on their faces, not only did they not have a look of sorrow, but they didn't even have a little look.

These people are weird.

The first time the shopkeeper saw these people, he always felt that something was different.

This group of people is naturally the thirteen people of the South Dipper and the Big Dipper, and when they see them like this, the shopkeeper is definitely not the first person. At the beginning on Yandang Mountain, when Jiang Xiyi went to the top of the mountain to find Dugu and the remnants with a sword, Tianshu and others were the same, but at that time, everyone's hearts were all tied to the battle situation, and no one paid attention to them.

The inn was small, with only six square tables in the hall, and when they all entered the inn together, the hall was extremely crowded, but it was not lively at all. The shopkeeper who ran the hall greeted him and asked these people if they were eating or staying in the hotel.

Tianshu and Tianliang, who were the leaders, glanced at the shopkeeper together, their eyes were very empty, as if they had no soul, the shopkeeper was furious in his heart, and when he was about to run away, Tianshu slowly spoke, and said: "We have a total of fourteen people, starting from the upper room, a total of fourteen rooms." ”

The number fourteen is also quite unlucky, all inns will not repair fourteen rooms, the most important thing to do business is good signs, even this inn is the same, they just have fifteen rooms, and there are lower rooms in these fifteen rooms.

The shopkeeper shuddered and said, "Please go to find the shopkeeper first, and take you to the residence later." ”

Tianshu nodded, and led everyone to the front desk. When the shopkeeper saw everyone coming, the abacus and pen in his hand stopped, and Tianshu took out the silver ingot directly from his arms and said, "Fourteen rooms." ”

The shopkeeper nodded, put away the silver ingot, called the shopkeeper, and asked him to take everyone to the room.

After the group left, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, he would rather never have such a good business in the future.

The sunset on the horizon has melted into the night sky, the moon has risen, the moon is bright and the stars are scarce, the moonlight is too bright, and the stars will not be visible, they surround the bright moon, but they are hidden under the moonlight.

There was another guest at the door of the inn, another man dressed in white.

The shopkeeper sighed and looked at the guest at the door.

This guest doesn't seem to be in the same group as the strange group of guests from before. She looks cold, but alive and vibrant. She was dressed in white, and a white hosta in her hair was extremely eye-catching against the background of her black hair, and that little bit of red became the focus against the white jade. She was beautiful, but she was a little pale, but that paleness made her look even more beautiful.

Anyone who looks at it knows that the girl is not an ordinary person.

The shopkeeper greeted him again, bent his waist, and said earnestly: "Is this girl here to stay in the hotel?" There is only one room left in the hotel, and there is only one inn within a radius of a few miles, if the girl wants to live, it will be a coincidence. ”

Everyone will become attentive when they see a beauty, as long as this beauty is just a beauty.

Jiang Xiyi was puzzled when he heard this, and said to the shopkeeper: "Didn't my family come here before?" ”

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and thought about the guests who came to the store today, only that group of strange customers......

Jiang Xiyi saw that the shopkeeper didn't reply for a long time, and walked directly past him to the front desk, the shopkeeper took a pot of wine, and drank himself at the front desk, seeing Jiang Xiyi coming over, put away the wine glass and wine jug, coughed and cleared his throat, and said, "I don't know if this guest officer is staying in the hotel or dining?" ”

Suddenly, Jiang Xiyi heard a "squeak", that was because the wooden floor was a little rotten, the sound of people's footsteps stepping up, the place where the sound came, Jiang Xiyi had already judged clearly, she turned her head and saw Nandou and Beidou and his party, Tianshu smiled: "It turned out that the owner of the village had arrived, we had seen that it was getting late now, and the owner had not yet arrived, so we were going to eat a little at will first, and now it was just right." ”

The shopkeeper glanced at it, and was amazed in his heart, this group of guests, as if all of them had changed, obviously the face was still the same, but the people seemed to be two groups of people.

Jiang Xiyi looked at Tianshu and nodded, and said, "Let's rest here for a day, and then go to the top of Mount Tai Jade Emperor in the sky." ”

On the third day, Jiang Xiyi and his party immediately went to Mount Tai.

Mount Tai is majestic and majestic, more heavy and less light than Wudang Emei, look up and see the clouds and smoke entwined with the overlap of the mountain potential, it seems to stretch to the sky, all the way to see the pine boulders, but also aggravate the majestic tranquility of Mount Tai.

Jiang Xiyi suddenly saw two men in tattered clothes walking on the road, and probably knew that they were about to arrive at the place.

Then Jiang Xiyi followed everyone forward, turned to the left, and after a while, he saw a boulder on the side of the road, with three words on the top of the Jade Emperor. Jiang Xiyi looked up, and saw that there were many people gathered on the platform, and the outermost circle was a beggar holding different weapons, wearing a ragged shirt with patches and patches, and a cloth bag. The group rode up again, turned over and dismounted, and prepared to walk onto the platform.

At this moment, Jiang Xiyi saw several black shadows turning over from the edge of the cliff onto the platform, and then on the platform, a person suddenly shouted: "Knot beat the dog formation!" The beggars, who were guarding the surroundings, suddenly ran towards the platform, and then the man who had shouted loudly before sang, "Brother from the south has come to beg for food, ouch yo yo......

Before the others on the platform could finish singing, one of them said disdainfully: "The beggar gang claims to be the number one gang in the world, but in my opinion, it's just that!" I want to bully more and less, and I don't dare to fight alone! ”

This man's voice directly overshadowed the voice of the singer, and his voice was deliberately pretended to be modified so that no one could hear his original voice, but if a person did this, then he must not be a nameless person, because only famous people are afraid that they will be recognized.

Jiang Xiyi suddenly heard Qiao Feng and said: "Qiao Feng, the leader of the beggar gang, I don't know your Excellency's honorable name. ”

Another said: "You are the new leader of the beggar gang?" Is there no one left in the beggar gang, and they actually chose you as the leader of the gang? ”

The beggar gang is the largest gang in the world, and the identity of the gang leader is so respected, and the gang members respect the gang leader. Everyone was very indignant when they saw that these people with masked faces and changed their voices were so rude to Qiao Feng and his gang, and they were ready to move.

Suddenly, another group of people came at the intersection of the mountain road, and the beggars turned their backs to the intersection and didn't see those people, but the elders of the gang were surprised in their hearts, because these people's steps were inevitably too light. Those black-clothed people looked at Jiang Xiyi and his party, and one of them said with a smile: "Where did you come from, little lady, it's not good to fight and kill here, wait and go with my brother!" ”

Hearing this, everyone in the beggar gang turned their heads and looked at the intersection, Qiao Feng was a little entangled in his heart, this incident happened suddenly, what was going on, Qiao Feng himself was in a fog, the fewer people involved, the better, but how could there be fewer people in the beggar gang? Now that many people are still on the way, Qiao Feng originally wanted to try his best to solve the matter before everyone arrived, but he didn't expect that someone had already arrived now.

After Qiao Feng looked at Jiang Xiyi, he said to those black-clothed people: "Although I don't know what happened to you going to the Jade Emperor this time, but I think it's just a matter between you and your gang, if you forcibly pull in others, it will be too much to ignore the morality of the rivers and lakes, and it will make people laugh when it spreads in the future." ”

A man in black snorted and laughed twice, and said, "You don't even know who we are, how do you get it out?" What's more, whether you can go down to the top of the Jade Emperor today depends on us! ”

As soon as the words fell, this person's figure flashed, flashed in front of the red-faced old man in the head of the beggar gang, the old man had a ghost head knife in his hand, the back was thick and thin, and the blade was very long.

Who knew that the man in black was faster than him, leaned over, reached out with his right hand to grab the ghost head knife, and made a palm with his left hand, and slapped it on the old man's chest. The old man couldn't change his move, he was slapped away with a palm, and went straight into the crowd, spitting blood from his mouth, and the ghost head knife also came out of his hand.

The man in black thrust his knife into the ground and let out an eerie laugh.

The rest of his nine companions also rushed forward, all with weapons in hand, and slashed towards the beggars.
