Qianchen Volume: Concentrate on Cultivation and Hide Hatred, Exploring the Rivers and Lakes to Provoke Old Enemies Chapter 18 Extraneous Branches

Soon after Luo Xiu left, the banner outside the wine shop was raised by the night wind and rattled. After the scene just now, although everyone in the wine shop did not feel strange, they also began to check out and leave one after another. Xiao Er of the wine shop yawned listlessly, cleaned up a messy wine table, and was counted down by the shopkeeper from time to time, scolding and scolding in his mouth, but he didn't dare to make too much noise.

The shopkeeper's abacus crackled, which was particularly harsh on the cold street that was already approaching. Outside the wine shop, Luo Xiu's neck was broken, and the man was still lying alone on the ground, and no one came to clean up the mess. The old man who played the watch passed by, and only glanced at it a few times, and then walked away. What was still muttering in his mouth was also blown away in the wind.

Such an innocent night, because of the addition of a nameless corpse, seems a little weird, no one cares whose son, whose father, or whose husband he is. At this time, the shopkeeper of the wine shop just wanted to know, who would come to clean up, so as not to affect tomorrow's business, and the second child of the wine shop was thinking about whether the shopkeeper would go to Sanli Hutong, knock on the door of the coffin shop owner, and then still give himself some money to help this person make a thin coffin.

The night of early spring is a little chilling, the shopkeeper of the wine shop is a little impatient, the wine shop Xiao Er is also deaf and yawning, and when he is about to stand up, a person suddenly walks in, a woman, a good-looking woman. Xiao Er fluttered and stood upright, and said to the visitor with a smile, "It's like this, but the guest officer wants to ask for a bowl of wine?" The woman didn't look at the liquor shopkeeper, walked straight to the shopkeeper, threw down a silver ingot and said, "Who did it?" ”

The shopkeeper grabbed the silver coin, took it in his mouth and bit it vigorously, and then said with a smile, "Just now there was a man in a linen shirt with a wine gourd pinned to his waist, and he broke that person's neck. "The most important thing for those who do their business is to observe the words and looks of the wine store, don't look at the shopkeeper only has money in his eyes, but to survive on this street, there must be something special.

The woman didn't seem satisfied with this answer, frowned slightly, and continued to ask, "When did you move?" "It's three o'clock." The shopkeeper said with a smile. "Do you remember that clearly?" The woman seemed to be a little unconvinced, and looked at the shopkeeper coldly, and her right hand had grasped the hilt of the sword at her waist.

The shopkeeper is the kind of person who is used to seeing strong winds and waves, how can he be intimidated by this kind of trick, but the wine shop Xiaoer saw such a style, so frightened that he quickly covered his head with a tablecloth and hid under a broken wine table, for fear of implicating himself. The shopkeeper touched his beard twice, and then said slowly, "The guest officer doesn't inquire, on this road, who doesn't know that I have literary powers, just now the incident happened suddenly, I happened to send that indisputable thing to give the guest the best drunk red dust, the wine is hidden in the cellar, so I paid attention to the time of the drip, lest this rabbit cub drink secretly." ”

It seems that this shopkeeper already hates Xiao Er, and has scolded him twice in one sentence. After hearing this, the woman withdrew her hand holding the hilt of the sword, and the shopkeeper quickly pointed in the direction of the west entrance of the city, and said hurriedly, "I went over there, I just walked for a long time, and I may be able to catch up." Without saying a word, the woman strode in the direction the shopkeeper pointed out. At this time, the shopkeeper let out a sigh of relief and said, "Finally sent this evil star away." When Xiao Er heard the shopkeeper's words, he slowly poked his head out and looked out, and sat down on the ground.

Suddenly, something flew from a distance and hit Xiao Er's head. Xiao Er hurriedly hid, and saw that no one else appeared, so he timidly looked at the things on the ground, which turned out to be a silver ingot, and a voice followed, "Bury him for me, Heavenly Prison Si Liu thanked him lightly." When he heard the Heavenly Prison Division, the shopkeeper was already frightened, and then heard that it was Liu Qingmei himself, the shopkeeper suddenly moved towards Xiao Er, and said tremblingly, "Hurry up to Sanli Hutong and find the old head of the coffin shop, go quickly." Xiao Er wanted to ask more, but he was kicked by the shopkeeper and almost fell down next to the person whose neck was choked, which made him tremble for a while.

Although this kind of scene is not strange, but seeing the shopkeeper is scared into a grandson, it is estimated that his own volume is not enough for others to play with a little finger. A spirit stood up, gave himself two mouths, and hurriedly ran to Sanli Hutong. At this time, the shopkeeper looked at the person lying on the ground in front of him in a daze, and muttered to himself, "How could you alarm the official family?" After speaking, he grabbed the guests on the table and drank the remaining half of the bowl of bad wine, and poured it down. As soon as he wanted to swallow it, he spit it out, and shouted loudly, "Let this rabbit cub have less water, no wonder business is getting worse and worse." With that, he sat down again, his eyes closed and curled up.

Luo Xiu didn't go far after leaving, because he knew that someone would definitely catch up, but he didn't know if it would be Mingyue Tower or other forces. So, he is waiting, waiting for an opportunity, waiting for a first opportunity. He had to shake his tail off, as was the case at Lone Roaring Heights, and he himself hated being followed. It's like an appendage, which makes people uncomfortable.

When he went out of the city gate, he came to a small earthen bag, which was now more than halfway through, and the early spring night had not yet had time to dissipate the winter chill, and the trees that had survived the cold had not yet grown new shoots, and were a little ugly. Luo Xiu already had a plan in his heart, so he sat down on the dirt bag and looked around, there was nothing to hide, only this place was a little more conspicuous. Those who are chasing after you can see it at a glance. didn't care about anything, as soon as Luo Xiu sat down, he took out a lotus leaf wrapped thing from his arms, opened it and ate it slowly.

I didn't expect a rough man in coarse linen clothes to be so good at this, but occasionally touched the clothes, which was a little disproportionate. At this time, the grass under the soil bag moved slightly, Luo Xiu raised his eyes and looked over, a woman hurried forward, and he felt the killing intent. That kind of chilling killing intent, at least the strength of the fifth order or above. It seems that he came for himself. Luo Xiu chewed the last chicken wing cleanly, wiped his greasy hand on his trouser leg, tidied up his shirt, and greeted him.

Without words, this confrontation was between lightning and fire, the bamboo flute made a move, blocked the woman's stabbing sword, and flipped again, and took the bamboo flute with his right hand and worked again. The woman was not cowardly, she dodged the blow sideways, and raised the scabbard upwards to pierce Luo Xiu's wrist. Just when the two were about to get in touch, Luo Xiu had already flicked the woman's scabbard with a bamboo flute in a strange way, and suddenly swept back, returned to the dirt bag, and stood with his hands in his hands. The woman didn't pursue, so she stood still at the attacking place, but with the sword in her hand, she pointed at Luo Xiu and said, "You killed the person outside the Wulipu wine shop?" ”

Luo Xiu didn't answer, and nodded with a smile, which was considered a tacit acquiescence. The woman then asked, "Do you know that you are responsible for killing people at the foot of the capital?" Luo Xiu thought about it after hearing it and said, "I just arrived here, and that person attacked me and was killed by mistake by me, and the shopkeeper and Xiao Er all saw it clearly, so you can't blame me, right?" ”

"Kill is kill, follow me to the Heavenly Prison Division, free and fair." The woman still pointed her sword at Luo Xiu, not leaving an inch. Luo Xiu said with a sad face, "This is not good, I still have important things, can I come to you when I am done?" I'll listen to your argument when the time comes. Then he turned and left. When had the woman been so humiliated, she immediately blushed and stabbed with a sword. Luo Xiu tilted his head to dodge, grabbed the woman's sword wrist and said, "You have to be reasonable even if you are an official, besides, you are so good-looking, are all the good-looking people in the world like you?" ”

The woman's face was even redder at this time, and she wanted to withdraw her hand but was caught by Luo Xiu. Then he slashed at Luo Xiu with his scabbard. Luo Xiu suddenly let go of the woman, and the woman did not expect the scabbard to pass through Luo Xiu's throat, but it was not hurt in the slightest. Luo Xiu took the scabbard by the way, chased the moon in one step, and disappeared into the night, leaving a sentence before leaving, "If you want to get something, come to Lonely Howling Heights to find me." By the way, I'll have to wait until I'm done. The woman had lost her sense of proportion at this time, stomped her feet and looked at the direction in which Luo Xiu disappeared, thinking that she couldn't catch up, so she ran to and fro.

When the woman came back, the shopkeeper was carrying Xiao Er and the coffin shop boss to move the man's remains to the coffin. Coincidentally, Xiao Er of the wine shop hurriedly ran to Lao Zhangtou's door, and when he was about to knock on the door, Lao Zhangtou walked out, and collided with Xiao Er, thinking that he had bumped into an evil evil in the middle of the night. Just as he was about to speak, Xiao Er panted and said that he wanted a thin coffin, and the old man said that someone had ordered him just now, and said that someone would come to pick it up later, and he was wondering why people didn't come, so he bumped into Xiao Er.

The two of them rushed to the door of the wine shop to restrain themselves in confusion, and the shopkeeper had eased up at this time, and resumed his usual routine, and instructed Xiao Eryi to let him get rid of it quickly, and tomorrow's business was delayed. When the Heavenly Prison Si Liu came back, he happened to see this scene, so he lifted the collar of the shopkeeper and asked, "That person is so good, why didn't you tell me?" The shopkeeper said aggrievedly, "Girl, you didn't ask." After hearing this, Liu Qingmei knew that he was at a loss, don't let the shopkeeper go, and after the shopkeeper got out of trouble, he ran back to the counter and hid.

At this time, Xiao Er of the wine shop had already reined in with the coffin shop, and was about to push the cart out of the city to bury people, but Liu Qingmei stopped him, "Send it to the Heavenly Prison Division first, I want to perform an autopsy." "The heart of the wine shop Xiao Er is dead, but the old Zhang Tou looks indifferent, as long as he gives money, it is not the same as giving it. After such a fuss, the sky was white, and Liu Qingmei urged the two of them to walk quickly towards the Heavenly Prison Division.

At this time, Luo Xiu did not go far, and when he saw that no one was chasing him, he walked in the direction of the capital again. And the people of Mingyue Tower, led by Nalan, did not make any action at all, and they still hid in the main altar and never appeared. This made Luo Xiu, who wanted to kill a horse gun, a little surprised. But he wasn't disappointed, because the cat-and-mouse game had just begun, and if things were as simple as they could have been, the fun would have been lost. Luo Xiu walked briskly back to the city, found an early stall and sat down, asked for a bowl of fried noodles, and ate it in a big gulp.
