CHAPTER XXVI

It's back to the way it used to be, but I know it's not the same again.

I still taught Ah Yan to make sachets, or helped my wife buy medicine, boiled medicine, helped her test the temperature of tea, served food to her wife, and told interesting stories on the road - although it didn't seem very interesting. But for people like Mrs. and Ah Yan who stay in the house all year round, it should be regarded as an anecdote.

"Yuxing, how is Muyang?" Madame asked.

"It's hard to say about the people in the officialdom."

Madame smiled: "Look at what you said, then the master is not a good person?" ”

"Of course not, madam, I only believe in what I see, such as the master, we all know how he is to us and know how good he is, but Muyang, I just stayed with him for less than a month, I can't say whether it is good or bad."

"Also, it's just that I thought that Muyang became an official of Zhengsanpin at a young age, and he must be a talent."

"I don't deny this, but it's hard to say whether it's his own ability to sit in the position. Sometimes pleasing a few people, you can be promoted quickly. ”

Madame didn't speak, I thought about it and didn't say anything bad, just when it was time to go out to buy medicine, I said to buy medicine, and left.

I haven't been back to the capital for a long time, and I look at everything on the street, as if a long time has passed. When the guy from the medical hall saw me, he asked in surprise, "You are finally here, it was Ah Yan who came to buy medicine before." What are you doing? ”

"Go pick the medicine."

"What kind of medicine is there in the capital, and you have to meet the girl to get it in person?"

"Madame, I'm just going to complete the task."

"To run that far? I heard that you went to Xuzhou. ”

I looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Who did you listen to?" ”

The guy was stunned for a moment and said, "Xuan catches the head." Why, is it not Xuzhou? ”

I glanced at him and said, "It's Xuzhou." ”

Strange, why did Xuan Lin tell them that I went to Xuzhou? If someone leaks that I am a killer, doesn't the whole city know that I am in Xuzhou and go directly to Xuzhou to arrest me?

"Meet the girl, the medicine is ready. If it's convenient, I'll come again the day after tomorrow, this time some medicinal materials are not enough, so I'll catch it again in two days. ”

"Okay." I paid, and as soon as I stepped out of the pharmacy door, I heard a commotion, and I looked not far away, where the people were all taking shelter, and a man in black was jumping up and down in it.

Although the man was dressed in black, he was not wearing a mask, and I could see at a glance that the person was actually one of the killers of the Qinglian Society, Shen Kan!

This is the capital, the murder in broad daylight, still in a place where so many people, without wearing a mask, is he here to send him to death?

But take a closer look, Xuan Lin is busy catching him, a few small catchers are busy protecting the people, but I know that Shen Kan's martial arts are not bad, he is good at using hidden weapons, and it is very easy to kill a few people in such a place, I don't know how Xuan Lian's martial arts are, but at present, it seems that Shen Kan has the upper hand, I saw that he quickly picked up a small child, stood at the front of the crowd, put the short knife tightly against the little boy's neck, and yelled at Xuan Shan: "No one is allowed to come!" ”

Xuan Xuan They stopped, the boy was crying loudly, and Shen Kan roared again: "Don't cry!" ”

The little boy instantly retracted, and only dared to sob, as if he was about to pass out.

"Let me go, I will not hurt this child."

Xuan Lin took a step forward and said, "You put him down first." ”

"Stand down!" Shen Kan roared, his hand tightened a little tighter, the child's neck seemed to be about to ooze blood, Xuan Xiao said eagerly: "Then let's retreat first!" Back off! All stand back! ”

The people around him and Xiao Yu Kuai were all retreating, Shen Kan looked at the crowd, his eyes slowly reddened, I don't know him very well, but I know that his current state of mind must be very complicated.

"I want fifty taels of silver! Get it! ”

Seeing that Shen Kan began to put forward conditions, Xuan Xiao had no other way, so he had to say: "Okay, if you let go of that child, I will give it to you and let you go." ”

"I won't let it go! You give first! I only need fifty taels! ”

Xuan Lin took fifty taels of silver from his subordinates and said to Shen Kan, "You come and get it!" ”

"You throw it!"

Xuan Lin had no choice but to throw it over. Seeing that the two sides entered a stalemate, I was also anxious, on the one hand, I couldn't understand why Shen Kan was looking for death, and on the other hand, as a good citizen, I still wanted to help Xuan Lone.

Shen Kan quickly picked up the silver on the ground, and only grabbed the child in his hand. Then he quickly turned around and ran away, Xuan Xiao wanted to chase, but Shen Kan shouted: "Whoever dares to come over, I will kill this child!" ”

I turned around and put down the medicine bag and said to the guy, "I'll come back to get it right away." And he stepped out the door. Xuan Lin saw me and shouted, "What are you going to do?!" ”

I ignored him, after all, Shen Kan didn't notice me at all just now, if I didn't chase it, I would have given up a good opportunity.

I stepped onto the roof and weaved through the tiles, trying not to make a sound. Shen Kan should have been running for a long time, and he can't run anymore at this time, plus he still has a child in his hand, which is even more of an obstacle. I saw the opportunity, saw that there was no one behind me, and fell in front of him with a bang, snatched the child into my arms, and at the same time pulled out the knife at my waist, and the tip of the knife was pressed against Shen Kan's throat.

"Meet the stars?! You-"

"What are you doing here? That's not how death is sent. ”

Shen Kan was dressed in a rough manner and said, "You, why did you stop me?!" I'm leaving, it's too late to go! ”

"If you can't escape, it's better to squat in prison for a while, make up for the fault, and if you rob the child on the street again, isn't it adding to your own fault? Besides, this is the capital, you are presumptuous at the feet of the Son of Heaven, do you think you can escape? ”

"You go away!"

Shen Kan took a step back, turned around, drew the sword at his waist, and pressed against my blade.

"You're exhausted, do you still want to fight?"

"Leave me alone!"

"If I let you go, who will let me go?"

I spun the knife in a circle, the blade slashed through the long sword, straight to his eyes, Shen Kan knew that he had no way out, looked at Xuan Lin behind him, threw down the sword, and said, "I admit defeat." ”

"That's right. Let's go, go and confess. ”

But at this time, I forgot what Shen Kan is best at. He suddenly threw a dart out of his sleeve, and the dart stabbed straight in the direction of Xuan Lone, and I didn't care about the child I was holding onto, and threw myself at the dart, and when I stood in front of Xuan Lone, there was a thud, and the dart was firmly planted in my right arm.

"Meet the stars!" Xuan Lin rushed towards me, and a few catchers around me hurried to catch Shen Kan, I pulled out the dart on my arm and said, "Catch him quickly." I turned around and chased after Shen Kan, and when I got close to him, I struck him hard in the back of the head, and the poison on the dart attacked, and I fell down with him.
