In the fifth year of Taihe, the third quarter of October.

Chang'an, Wannian County, Jinchangfang.

"People, where are people...... Li Shangyin said nervously, his attention was also attracted by the shopkeeper, and he didn't focus on the two people at all.

Not good!

Zhang Yijun's heart sank, and he thought that the two people who stopped in front of the copper mirror shop were not casually looking at the goods at all, but borrowed the copper mirror in the store to check whether anyone was following them. And Zhang Yijun and Li Shangyin stopped in front of the stall for too long, which naturally aroused the vigilance of the two of them, so they slipped away while Zhang Yijun's eyes were away.

Careless...... Zhang Yijun said in his heart, he walked to the bronze mirror shop in a row, and hurriedly asked the shopkeeper: "Where did the two who are suitable for the right talent go?" ”

The shopkeeper was holding the cricket box in his hand, and he only raised his chin lazily, pointed to the east side of Broad Street, and said lazily: "It's ...... across the street."

Zhang Yijun looked at the wide street, but was blocked by the endless stream of tourists, he did not dare to delay, walked forward, and rushed left and right in the crowd. Li Shangyin reluctantly followed him, patting his head with some annoyance, and hated in his heart, if he hadn't looked into the store curiously, maybe he wouldn't have lost the traces of those two.

Walking to the middle of Broad Street, Zhang Yi stopped and looked around. The east and west sides of the wide street are slightly sunk compared with the center, and the figures on the street are scattered. He held his breath, tiptoeing lightly, his sword eyebrows frowning slightly, until his gaze was fixed on the crown of hibiscus, which was quite dazzling in the sun, and suddenly his eyebrows were stretched.

Not far to the right of the hibiscus crown, there was a black gauze head moving up and down with the pace, Zhang Yi was sure that this was the "man in the black shirt", and both of them went straight to the side street on the east side of Broad Street.

"Found it!"

Zhang Yijun quickly pushed aside the crowd to chase after him, Li Shangyin followed, and when the two of them rushed to the east side of the wide street, Li Shangyin could see from a distance that the hibiscus crown was only dozens of steps away from them on the side street, and he was wearing a beige brocade robe, and he was heading straight east with the wind under his feet.

Zhang Yijun walked to the entrance of Hengjie, but his eyelids jumped, and he stopped, "Wait......"

"Brother Yijun, what's wrong?"

"What about the brown robe?" Zhang Yijun said urgently.

After Zhang Yijun's reminder, Li Shangyin realized that because the hibiscus crown was real and easy to recognize, they had always been aiming at the brocade when they crossed the wide street, but they didn't pay much attention to the whereabouts of the brown robe, and they didn't know when the two ran away separately.

"Follow him, I'll look for him!" Zhang Yijun spoke extremely fast, and he couldn't afford to think about countermeasures at the moment.

Zhang Yijun said this, and after Li Shangyin instructed Zhang Yijun to be careful, he immediately followed quickly.

When Fang Cai looked around in the middle of Broad Street, Zhang Yijun saw with great certainty that the black gauze head was on the right side of the hibiscus crown, and the two should not have separated at that time.

Zhang Yijun moved forward, his gaze hurriedly sweeping the street from left to right. This side street is about 20 paces wide, with shops on both sides, and there is also a Wuhou shop at the entrance of the street, which is responsible for maintaining law and order in the vicinity. The street was wider, and the street was sparser, but at this moment's time, two mule carts full of goods drove past Zhang Yijun's side.

Next to the Wuhou shop, there is a narrow alley three steps wide, Zhang Yi knows that these narrow alleys are the gaps left by the design walls of the shops and houses, and over time, they have become a shortcut to connect the streets, and some will even go straight to the shack area in the square, which is often chaotic inside, if it is for hiding, it is indeed the best.

Zhang Yijun walked in slowly, the alley is really very narrow, only allowing one person to pass, there is a corner not far ahead, and there are several wooden boxes and bamboo frames stacked nearby.

As soon as Zhang Yijunfu stepped over the corner of the wall, he suddenly saw a flash of cold light in the afterglow.

Zhang Yijun subconsciously retreated to the side, and a long-bladed dagger then grazed his left shoulder, leaving a bloody mark.

The man moved very fast, seeing the blade in the air, he quickly turned his wrist and stabbed the knife, Zhang Yi didn't care about decency, turned over and threw himself on the ground, and barely dodged the second knife. Zhang Yijun hurriedly dragged a bamboo frame and blocked the next knife, but the man immediately flew up and kicked Zhang Yijun's waist fiercely, making him bared his teeth in pain, and the bamboo frame then tilted to the side, exposing Zhang Yijun's heart.

The tip of the knife approached rapidly, Zhang Yijun hurriedly rolled to the side, not wanting to be in a hurry, his body hit the pine box piled up in the corner of the alley uncontrollably for a while.

Seeing that the blade was pointed directly at Zhang Yijun's heart, Zhang Yijun thought that his fate would be doomed, but the man seemed to have changed his mind, his hand was strengthened, and the tip of the knife then deviated to the left, and the sharp blade was easy to flick his finger against Zhang Yijun's throat.

The brown robe's low voice mixed with phlegm sounded in Zhang Yijun's ears, and there was some surprise in his tone: "It's you again?!" ”

Zhang Yijun was stunned, again? What does this mean?

Before Zhang Yijun could speak, the man withdrew the dagger with one hand, grabbed Zhang Yijun's neck like an iron tong with the other, lifted him from the ground roughly, and then slammed it backwards, knocking the stacked wooden boxes behind Zhang Yijun to the ground with a "bang", causing several dog barks in the alley.

The brown robe has a flat forehead and sparse eyebrows, but its eyes are bloodshot and fierce, and the mustache on its jaw is quite like a bristle brush, and the broken right ear with a scar makes people feel intimidated when they see it. But what surprised Zhang Yijun was that this person's arms were not thick, but his arms were extremely strong, and his hands were full of calluses, which stabbed Zhang Yijun's throat.

"Who do you do things for?" The brown robe roared.

"Wait a minute...... Zhang Yijun said in his heart, "this person's voice ...... Somewhat familiar. ”

"Who sent you here?!" The man shouted impatiently.

Come to think of it...... Zhang Yijun muttered in his mouth, and his voice was almost a whisper: "You were in the Xuanduguan Culvert at that time......

The brown-robed man smiled like a coyote when he heard this, and he opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly heard a broken cry from the mouth of the alley: "What does he want?" ”

Zhang Yijun followed the prestige, and several patrolling martial marquis were holding fork poles in their hands, staring at the two of them quite vigilantly, and their eyes especially swept over the bright long-bladed dagger in the brown robe's hand. I think that the wooden box that just fell was too big, and it alarmed the neighboring Wuhou shop in the square, and today there can be a Dharma in the Great Ci'en Temple, and there is no shortage of dignitaries and nobles who come here to offer incense, and the security can not tolerate sloppiness.

The man's hand loosened, he snorted coldly, put the tip of the dagger into the narrow sleeve, turned around, and the soles of his feet lightly borrowed strength from the pine box, and then jumped up, and the figure disappeared completely behind the ridge of the roof.

Zhang Yijun wanted to catch up, but Shicai's neck was really choked, making him cough violently several times.

Several Wuhou in the alley hurriedly rushed over, and the leading Wuhou spoke with a Zichuan accent: "Mom sells batches!" Let the turtle run......"

"You're all right, are you?"

Zhang Yijun leaned against the blue brick wall and adjusted his breathing for a while. These Wuhou didn't dare to go too far away from Wuhou's shop, and after seeing that Zhang Yi was fine, they said a few words and turned around and walked out of the alley.

Zhang Yijun spread out his palms, and his eyes swept over the things in his hands, at least he didn't find nothing.

Zhang Yijun had a one-inch square Nanmu Ling in his hand, and he remembered that it seemed that he had torn it off the man's sword when he turned around and escaped. Carefully detailed, see that it is carved with the symmetrical pine leaf pattern, although the shape is simple, but the wooden pine needles are like a golden silk thread, symmetrical and compact, at a glance you know that it is the top grade golden silk nanmu.

If you just look at this pine leaf, it is difficult to see what kind of tree this is, but the spherical buds on the left and right of the leaf stem are clear to Zhang Yijun at a glance.

"Kashiwa leaf bulbs?" Zhang Yijun muttered to himself softly, his sword eyebrows gradually frowned, what did a man carry such a thing?

Li Shang stared intently at the hibiscus crown, his eyes were not so much alert as excited. This is an opportunity to make contributions, Li Shangyin said in his heart, although Brother Yi Jun only let himself follow this person closely, but if he can find out some amazing inside stories along the way, it will be a great achievement, and the opportunity must not be lost, and it will not come again!

Thinking like this, Li Shangyin couldn't help but speed up his pace and get closer to the man. The pedestrians on the side streets happened to be the perfect shield for him to hide from the man's sight.

The layout of Chang'an Li Fang is similar, the bustling and lively are all extended around the central cross street, and the east and west near the square wall will be much deserted. Li Shang faintly felt that this person went all the way to the east, almost against the flow of people, and the towering spire of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda in the workshop was gradually moving away from him, where was this person going? Don't you want to go out of the workshop?

Li Shangyin's excitement subsided a little, that day with Zhang Yijun traveled to Chang'an just in Chang'an County and the northeast of the city, he was not familiar with the Fangfang near Jinchangfang, if this person really wanted to rush to other places, he was not familiar with the place, how should he inform Zhang Yijun of the whereabouts of this person?

Li Shangyin thought about it like this, but he didn't realize that there were a few more floating teenagers around him. These teenagers had hippie smiling faces and eye-catching tattoos on their necklines, but they all pretended not to know each other, maintained the same pace as Li Shangyin, and approached him quietly.

Li Shangyin saw that the hibiscus crown suddenly turned north, turned into Lane B, and the figure disappeared into the corner of the alley. Li Shangyin hurriedly followed, but was blocked by a middle-aged man in a robe.

Li Shangyin couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this, and he stepped to the right again, but the floating waves next to him pushed him back with his shoulders and arms. Li Shangyin realized what was going on, only one day later, why did this group of people come to find trouble for themselves again?

The middle-aged man crossed his arms over his chest, looked at Li Shangyin resentfully for a long time, sneered, and his voice was mixed with a thick nasal voice: "You are Li Shangyin?" ”

Li Shangyin didn't want to pay attention to this group of people at all, he stared at the alley that was only a dozen steps away from him, and said hurriedly: "Just today, can you stop pestering me?" ”

A sneer came from the nostrils of the middle-aged man: "Didn't you speak tightly to our son-in-law that day?" How? Are you scared now? ”

Li Shangyin was really impatient this time: "Do you have nothing to do?" Why bother with so-and-so? ”

"If I let you go, others will say that Gongzi and I Bi Saburo are easy to bully!" The middle-aged man said hatefully, stretched out a finger and pointed at the tip of Li Shangyin's nose: "Bi Mou told you, this Jinchangfang is Lao Tzu's world, even if the king of heaven Lao Tzu comes today, you will not be able to avoid this beating!" ”

Bi Saburo gave an order, and the flower arms were eager to try, and they all pulled out their leather sticks, and were about to do it.

Li Shangyin finally panicked, this group of people was loose from each other, but they were connected into an impregnable human wall, so that he had nowhere to escape.

Until a bright and clear female voice sounded leisurely outside the human wall: "Bi Saburo, you are making trouble again!?" ”
