Chapter 11: Distress
Beicheng Bamboo Forest. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The breeze blows, and the bamboo leaves sway slightly, making a pleasant sound like music. Beicheng is an earthy yellow city, surrounded by continuous ravines and ravines, and only here can you see the natural green. Lin You sat under an extraordinarily green bamboo, playing with a bamboo leaf in his hand. Her expression was three parts sad and seven points confused. What happened today was as unreal as a dream, and that demonic youth had become his nightmare again. Shouldn't I have shot him with an arrow to the one who has defiled him? Why can't I refrain from playing tricks with him?
It is undeniable that that young man has a charm that intoxicates many women, but could she Lin You be such a vulgar woman? She couldn't figure it out, but she didn't want to be entangled with Ye Yun anymore, she was a phoenix, and she could never be destroyed in the hands of an ordinary person. The moment she stood up, the bamboo leaves falling from the sky had already told her the answer: she would do whatever it took to make Ye Yun disappear from her life.
……
Smelting dwelling.
The smelting house was founded in the third year of the Xuan Emperor calendar, there have been twenty-six spring and autumn periods, under the leadership of Tianyezi, the smelting house controlled the thirty-six most famous foundries in Beicheng, monopolized more than ninety percent of the arms trade in Beicheng, due to the unique economic state of Beicheng, it can be said that the smelting house indirectly dominated the fate of Beicheng. However, Tianyezi does not have any heart that overrides all things at all, and there is only a fanatical heart for the supreme divine soldier.
"Little Brother Ye, are you uncomfortable?" Lin Zhenxin patted Ye Yun on the shoulder, he had been uneasy since he returned to Beicheng from the Shilu Iron Mine, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Ye Yun shook his head, glanced around, and said frankly: "Lord City Lord, from the unearthing of the Six Directions Xuantie to the present, I have a feeling of being watched by. ”
"Prying eyes?"
Lin was shocked, and then smiled: "Little Brother Ye is too careful, although my northern city is not an impregnable wall, it is not an ordinary thief who dares to attack." The city has sent troops to guard the smelting house day and night, even if someone tries to plot against Xuantie, there is a thief who has no thief heart. Moreover, although the Tianyezi Craftsman didn't know any advanced martial arts, his true qi had already reached the realm of invincibility, so who would dare to challenge the divine power of a sixth-order powerhouse? ”
Ye Yun knew that he didn't believe it early on, and laughed at himself: "Maybe I'm too careful, I can't help it, the small people have lived in the barren sea for a long time, with their backs to the mountains, and they are even worried about whether there will be a beast attack when they sleep, so they will be a little nervous in the long run." ”
Lin Zhenxin patted him on the shoulder, and said meaningfully: "As soon as the old man saw Little Brother Ye, he felt that Little Brother was not a thing in the pool, as long as time passed, Little Brother will become a climate." By the way, Tianyezi Craftsman made the most important promise, he promised to give the little brother a sword, you can go in and choose! ”
In fact, at this time, Lin Jingxin not only had the intention of soliciting Ye Yun, but also had a trace of vigilance. This young man obviously hid a lot of strength at the beginning, so it seems that what is the purpose of his coming to this North City?
"Hmm."
Ye Yun responded, but he didn't care much, his family's Yanlong swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world, and the requirements for the sword are also very high, ordinary fine iron swords can't afford it at all, Ye Yun doesn't want to take a sword casually, and when it comes to the critical time, the opponent is not killed, but the sword melts by itself.
"This is a fine iron sword, four feet and two inches long, made of fine iron, made of hundreds of refining, and can break through stubborn stones."
"This is the Longquan sword, three feet and nine inches long, it is also made of fine iron, but it is condensed by the water of Longquan Creek, which is quite rare."
"This is a dustless sword, four feet and four inches long, it was pawned by a wandering Taoist who had no money to pay for wine, and the manufacturing materials are unknown."
"This is a golden lightsaber......
Ye Yun walked around, although he was dazzled, but it was really as he expected, there was no sword suitable for him here, most of the time, he saw Lin Jingxin slipping away on the grounds that he was busy with official business, and the master he introduced was dry, and he was tired of it, so he picked one casually and said, "What about this one?" ”
The master glanced at it and said with a smile: "This is the Yue Nu sword, three feet three inches long, weighing four catties and eight taels, it was tailor-made by Tianyezi craftsmen for Miss You, and later Miss You happened to get the cold jade and made the Han jade bow, so she sent this Yue Nu sword back, but I didn't expect to be ...... by Ye Gongzi."
Ye Yun choked: "Is it hers?" ”
The old master secretly breathed a sigh of relief, looking at this guy's expression, he must be Miss You's admirer again, so there should be no need to explain it now! He enthusiastically introduced it in detail: "Hehe, although this sword is a little shorter, but it is a rare fine product, although it is a paraphrase of the predecessor's name Yue Nu, but Miss You's swordsmanship is stronger than that of men, so it is not like other women's swords that are difficult for men to control." If it weren't for Tianyezi's master explaining to Ye Gongzi, you can take that handful, and the villain really wouldn't dare to take it out. ”
Ye Yun heard that he said it so well, and was a little curious about the sword Lin You used, so he pulled out the sword, bent his fingers and flicked it, a clear voice sounded, and after a few more waves, he saw that the sword light was shining, and it was also very smooth, so he nodded with satisfaction, and said: "The work of Tianyezi Craftsman is indeed worthy of its reputation, so I want this one." ”
"Boom!"
At this moment, a loud roar rang out.
Ye Yun felt that it was coming from the casting room on the west side, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What happened?" ”
The old master smiled and said: "It's nothing, this kind of explosion is a regular thing, but even the Tianyezi craftsman himself presided over the explosion, which is a bit rare, it seems that the six directions of Xuantie are really not simple!" The old man has been following Tianyezi's master for nearly thirty years, and this situation only occurred once when he was casting the Qingfeng Sword. ”
"Breeze Sword?"
The old master showed a yearning look, and said: "Qingfeng Sword is the most perfect sword made by the craftsman, whether it is material, appearance, interior, design is the best product, if I create a sword with Qingfeng Sword half perfect in my life, I will be satisfied......"
"Boom!"
Another roar sounded, interrupting the master's words. Ye Yun couldn't help but walk to the west side, wanting to see what was going on.
The old master hurriedly grabbed him and said: "Ye Gongzi, just like you martial artists, you often say that the exercises of this sect are not passed on, and our casting skills are also taboo, besides, our Tianyezi craftsman hates others to disturb him when he casts, once Miss You broke in and was injured by Tianyezi craftsman, and it took more than ten days to lie down!" ”
Ye Yun was startled, and hurriedly shrank back, joking, the old man's body was really terrifying, and he would be crippled if he didn't die with a palm.
Just as he was about to say goodbye, a short figure came from the west side, and he looked over in surprise.
The old master noticed his eyes and said with a smile: "He is a public servant, who is responsible for giving the Tianyezi master daily food, and he is also the only disciple of the master craftsman, only he can enter and leave the casting room freely." ”
"Oh. That's right, there's nothing to say goodbye to. Ye Yun glanced at the Gong Yi Yun again, and found that he was just an ordinary teenager, so he walked out of the smelting house with the Yue Nu sword.
From the smelting Ju Hui Tianxing Inn to go through a demolition area, this demolition area is left after the transformation of the north city, due to the Shilu iron mine incident Lin was shocked for a while and had no time to deal with it, dozens of uninhabited houses were erected there crookedly, surrounded by rubble.
Although it was noon, the sun's rays on this area did not shine a little life, and the dilapidated scene made people sigh.
A cold wind hit.
There is an ambush! Ye Yun felt the danger in his first consciousness, and the Yue Nu sword sheath was swung out, and with a few sounds, the three hidden weapons fell to the ground.
Eight black-clothed masked men leaned over silently and surrounded Ye Yuntuan.
One of the masked men took out a picture scroll from his arms, looked at it a few times, looked at Ye Yun a few times, and shouted: "That's right, it's him!" ”
"Kill!" With a shout, seven people raised their swords and stabbed at Ye Yun.
The sword they used was a thin silver sword, which was best suited for penetration, seeing the bloody throat. The seven sword lights exuded a cold aura under the sunlight, and in their eyes, Ye Yun was already a dead man.
Ye Yun sneered, and the Yue Nu sword came out of its sheath and picked up the sword flowers in the sky. Several masked killers only felt the light shining in front of them, and then there was a sharp pain in their bodies and they fell.
"Sword Mang? Damn it! It's a rank master! Seeing Ye Yun's long sword or circle or point, three of his seven subordinates lay down in a blink of an eye, and the remaining killer threw the picture scroll and swung his sword to slash.
"Dang!" There was a bang, and Ye Yun and him each took three steps back.
The sword moves in the Yanlong Jue are not too many but extremely exquisite, and they are more vigorous, even if they fall to the downwind, they must move forward bravely, only to see Ye Yun carrying the sword over his shoulder, and laughing: "Good guy!" Again! ”
Taking a step forward, his arm flipped over, and the Yue Nu Sword in his hand shot out a bright light like the scorching sun, enveloping the masked killer's whole body.
The masked killer had never seen such a terrifying sword technique, and was taken aback, swinging his sword to block it, but was shocked by a scorching breath and flew nearly ten zhang!
"Wow!" He spat out a mouthful of blood.
Ye Yun stepped forward, and the tip of his sword pressed against his throat: "Who sent you?" Say! ”
"Third brother!" Several killers were taken aback and pounced.
Ye Yun's sword tip was slanted, and he drew a scar on the masked killer's left shoulder, and said coldly: "Take another step forward, I will kill him immediately!" Back off! ”
Several murderers didn't expect this young man to be so fierce, they looked at each other, and after all, they didn't dare to joke with his life, and retreated.
The masked killer gasped and said, "Since you know that we are killers, what else do you ask?" Kill if you want to, don't talk so much nonsense! ”
"Hah—do you really think I wouldn't dare kill you?" Ye Yun let out a long laugh, and the Yue Nu sword stretched out, piercing the masked killer's throat on the spot.
"Ahh The masked killer tilted his head and fell.
"Third brother!" The killers were shocked, and rushed forward with their swords raised in grief and anger.
"What do you talk about when you choose the path of a killer. It seems that this is what you have done. ”
The sword in Ye Yun's hand flashed like a spiritual snake, and the killer who ran fastest died under Ye Yun's sword in an instant.
Several killers didn't expect Ye Yun to be so ruthless, compared to them, they couldn't help but be afraid, couldn't help but retreat, and finally turned around and fled.
Ye Yun put his sword back into the sheath and did not chase them.
Looking at the two corpses on the ground, Ye Yun did not feel a trace of guilt, if his subordinates showed mercy, he would be lying down. Everyone said that the children of the emperor's family were ruthless, and Ye Yun agreed with this statement.
The wind blew, bringing up a little blood, and the picture.
Ye Yun picked it up and stared at himself in the painting. Although Liao Liao has a few brushstrokes, he has already depicted his form and spirit vividly, which shows that this person's painting skills are quite exquisite.
Judging by the realism of this painting, this person has not only seen himself, but also has a deep impression of himself, who could it be?
Knowing that there are no more than five people in the smelting house, Tianyezi, Lin Jingxin, Fu Yichuan, Zhu Mingye, and Lin You, among them, Tianyezi is dedicated to casting the six-sided Xuantie sword, not to mention letting him send someone to kill him, even if others kill him, he is afraid that he will not want to leave the sword casting workshop; Lin was shocked, unlikely, he was the lord of a city, and he didn't need to hire a killer if he wanted to kill someone, and besides, he didn't have a reason to kill himself; Fu Yichuan, this guy is timid and afraid, and he also talks about righteousness, and he doesn't have much money to afford a killer, it won't be him, only Zhu Mingye and Lin You are suspicious, although Zhu Mingye has always suspected that his brother's death is related to him, but now that his brother has been buried, he shouldn't be so stupid to start trouble again.
In this way, the only suspicious one is Lin You.
"Is she trying to kill herself?" Ye Yun was silent, although he didn't have any feelings for Lin You, but out of the common disease of men, he regarded Lin You as his own woman in his heart, and it was uncomfortable to be paid by his own woman to ask a killer to kill him.
"A woman's heart is really unpredictable, at first she was still 'chatting' with herself, but the next moment she wanted her own life......"
Ye Yun walked through the demolition area and walked towards the Tianxing Inn.
Soon after he left, a demonic figure appeared in the demolition area, she looked at the corpse on the ground fixedly, and showed a shocked look on her face: "This kid is so ruthless!" Looks like I underestimated him. Forget it, if it doesn't work out this time, he will definitely raise his guard in a short time and change his target for the time being! ”
She stepped over the corpse, leaving a thick puff of fat in her wake.
……
"Ye Gongzi! You're finally back! Chief Fu Yichuan has been waiting for you for a long time, and he is dying! As soon as I returned to the Star Inn, the owner greeted me.
"Tomiichikawa? Yes! Ye Yun patted his head, and suddenly remembered that Fu Yichuan had asked him to drink, but he didn't expect to pick a sword for a long time and be attacked by a masked killer, which took a lot of time.
He laughed and said, "I'll go now." ”
When he walked into his room, Fu Yichuan was fidgeting and walking around the room, and when he saw him, he shouted happily: "Brother Ye! ”
Ye Yun smiled and said, "I'm sorry, rich brother, there was an accident when I came back, so it was late." ”
"Accident?" Fu Yichuan glanced at his somewhat torn clothes and said strangely: "What accident?" Why do I smell blood? ”
He sniffed, then frowned: "Brother, you killed someone?" ”
Ye Yun was surprised.
Fu Yichuan said: "Don't hide it from my brother, because I am timid, so I am very sensitive to the smell of blood, although there is no blood on my brother's body, I smell the sword in my brother's hand has a smell of blood, and it is very fresh, at most it was twenty minutes ago." ”
Ye Yunzhen didn't expect that he didn't have this ability, showing a look of admiration, and raised his finger and praised: "The rich brother is really amazing!" The younger brother was attacked by a group of killers when he came back, but fortunately their martial arts skills were not high, so I had the opportunity to come back and drink with the elder brother. ”
With that, he took out the picture of himself and told him what had just happened.
Fu Yichuan's face turned blue and white for a while when he heard it, and he said half-loudly: "Brother Ye, I guess this matter may be related to Miss Lin." ”
Ye Yun was taken aback, was this rich Yichuan's insight so superb? It's just an unpredictable prophet, a god-man, he really looks away, and people can't look good, so he was really impressed and asked, "Why did the rich brother say that?" ”
Fu Yichuan sighed and said, "Brother Ye, don't you know, Miss You is the dream lover of all the men in our northern city, you had the honor to dig with her yesterday, and you are still talking and laughing, not to mention other people, it is my hundred subordinates, who are not red-eyed?" It must have been that they spread the news and aroused the jealousy of some people who tried to pursue Miss You, so they asked the killer to deal with Brother Ye. ”
"Uh......"
Ye Yun smiled bitterly, if they knew that they not only "talked and laughed" with her, but also completely got her, wouldn't they have to be dismembered by a knife?
"However, because Miss You is so good, the women of Beicheng, especially those from sixteen to twenty-five, all regard Miss You as a thorn in their eyes and a thorn in their flesh, and they can't wait to stomp Miss You with a knife...... Haha, especially the former Oiran Ruoshui, she is the most vicious, if she has a chance, she must stun Miss You and throw her to the prostitute, his grandmother's, Brother Ye, do you say this woman is cheap? After a few glasses of wine, Fu Yichuan's face was red and his ears were hot, and his speech became messy.
Ye Yun was shocked and said, "Big brother Fu, how do you know that Ruoshui said these words?" ”
Fu Yichuan drank another glass and said drunkly: "Ye, Brother Ye, have you forgotten that my former boss was Zhu Mingqi, if the water is his goodness, yes, once Zhu Renpi drank, drunk, told us." ”
"Oh." Ye Yun nodded, smiled bitterly in his heart, the appearance of the flower flashed in his mind, and he sighed a little, although she died, she still achieved her goal.
"Ago, there was a fire a few days ago, yes, some people said that Ruoshui was burned to death, but, but when I went back to the barracks last night, I saw her, her back!"
Ye Yun smiled slightly and said, "Rich brother, you drank too much." ”
If Shui is not dead, he knows best, she was pierced through the throat by Lin You in anger, and her body was burned by the fire, and it is impossible for her to be alive.
"Me. I'm not drunk! Drinking and drinking, Fu Yichuan's head tilted and softened.
Ye Yun took the wine glass, stood in front of the window, and looked up at the dim sky outside the window, tomorrow will be another rainy day, right?
