Text Chapter 267 The lid can't be covered

"Panic what!"

Li Yu clasped his hands in his sleeves and took a step forward calmly, his face did not change, and his expression was calm. However, others can't see the inside of the sleeve, still hiding the truth, quietly pinching the celestial wheel, ready to start at any time.

His right foot had just kicked hard, and his five toes were more exposed, and he had stepped directly on the ground, and his shoes had a tendency to move up his calf.

The man he kicked into the air knocked over the weapon rack, screaming and groaning to get up from the ground. Li Yu glanced at him, and his expression suddenly froze.

"Liu Xiaoxiao?"

Li Yu hurried to the man's side and said in a deep voice, "Liu Xiaoxiao, is it you?" ”

The man on the ground struggled to get up, when he froze at this. He raised his head and looked at Li Yu, and couldn't help but show a shocked look.

Li Yu said in a deep voice: "Didn't you take refuge in Luo Kedi? Why did you come to Chang'an? ”

The man on the ground glanced at the people next to Li Yu, all of them were wearing round-necked robes and soft-footed heads, very similar to Sven people, but they were all full of flesh and murderous spirit, with tiger claws, double pegs, nunchucks (chain flails), measuring rulers, and nine-section whips in their hands......

The whole thing is a moving line of weapons.

A trace of horror flashed in the eyes of the man on the ground, and he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Liu Xiaoxiao? What Liu Xiaoxiao? Did you recognize the wrong person? ”

Li Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "Oh? You're not Liu Xiaoxiao? So who are you? ”

The man looked a little flustered, and said in a panic, "I...... I am a ranger, and the people of the rivers and lakes give me the nickname: pheasant! ”

When Li Yu heard this, his face twitched violently a few times, and he lost his mind for a moment.

He came to his senses, and his gaze shifted to the man's right hand, which was pressed to the ground. The person's right hand does not have a thumb. And Liu Xiaoxiao was also cut off by Luo Badao's thumb, is there such a coincidence in the world?

Seeing Li Yu's gaze, the man hurriedly retracted his hand as if he had been stung, with a look of embarrassment and fear.

Li Yu looked at him calmly and didn't say a word.

Then six or seven men rushed out of the blacksmith's shop. Among them, there are shopkeepers, guys, and two people, who are the local guests who competed with Liu Xiaoxiao to buy the iron treasure knife before.

It turned out that these two local guests were trusted, and after deceiving Liu Xiaoxiao, they rushed back to share the spoils, but they didn't expect that the foreign guest would find the flaw so quickly and rush back to theorize.

Liu Xiaoxiao wanted to reason with them, but he didn't want this gang of liars to be even more domineering than him, so he smashed his knife and kicked him out of the door again. These people did not give up, and hurried out, and when they saw that all the people in the thirteen blocks were present, they were startled, and they were in a dilemma.

Li Yu stared at Liu Xiaoxiao, Liu Xiaoxiao's head was buried lower and lower, and suddenly he turned over, so frightened that a Jia Shi next to him immediately raised his sleeve arrow. But Liu Xiaoxiao might as well turn over, and actually knelt in front of Li Yu, knocked his head down, and tears fell like rain when he landed.

Li Yu listened to him sobbing and telling what had happened, only to know that this guy had taken refuge in Luo Kedi, drove Luo Badao out of Longyou, and lost his role as a lackey. His thumb has been broken, and he can't hold the blade, this kung fu is equivalent to wasting seventy or eighty percent, how to sit firmly in the position of the seventh brother?

In addition, Gengxin Geng, who tried to make progress, but was ranked lower again and again, never gave up his struggle and ideals, and competed with him for power and favor all day long, and as a result, he was driven out of Luo Kedi's team.

Anti-bone boy is not popular anywhere, he was originally a person from Longjiazhai, but he voted for Luo Badao to deal with Longjiazhai, and when he became a person of Luo Badao, he defected to Luo Kedi and dealt with Luo Badao, which can be described as a family slave with three surnames, although no one wants him on the white road, and everyone despises him on the underworld.

In desperation, Liu Xiaoxiao had no choice but to leave Longyou and go to Guanzhong to seek food.

According to what he said, there are only two thousand six hundred and seven dollars left on his body, and he is not at risk of livelihood for the time being, but it is not a long-term strategy, and he has relied on his martial arts to eat since he was a child, and he doesn't know anything about the skills next to him, so he wants to buy a good knife, or he can find a job as a bodyguard and protect the hospital.

When Li Yu heard this, he said curiously: "Your hand is already useless, so what if you have a treasure knife?" ”

Liu Xiaoxiao sobbed: "I also know that I am already a wasted person. But apart from this martial arts, there is really nothing else to fear. I thought, I just can't hold the weapon now, if I build an iron ring that holds the handle of the knife in place and can be put on the hand, I can recover some of my ability, if it is an extremely sharp sword, then it is still possible to recover seventy or eighty percent of my ability. ”

Li Yu thought about it and praised: "Yes, this method is not bad." ”

Liu Xiaoxiao pointed to the shop and the others, and said angrily: "But they, the two of them pretended to be customers, and raised the price, if it was only so, I would admit it, but who knows, they sold my iron sword, which is not iron at all, just ordinary fine iron, that is the guy I will rely on for my survival in the future, I ...... I ......"

When Liu Xiaoxiao said this, he suddenly woke up as if he had just woken up from a dream, glanced at Li Yu, and said with a miserable smile: "I was deceived and I can't live." I want to come back to seek justice, but I don't want to meet you again, I can't live. I admit it, this may be my life......"

Li Yu said with some surprise: "What, you don't beg for mercy anymore?" ”

Liu Xiaoxiao shook his head and said miserably: "I was scared of death just now, but as I was talking, I suddenly felt that it was better to live than to die if I fell to this point. ”

Li Yu stared at his embarrassed appearance, looked at him for a long time, slowly turned his head, and asked, "Which one is the shopkeeper?" ”

The shopkeeper was instructed by a master, and already knew that this young man was the future city order, listening to the conversation between the two of them, and also knowing that the two of them had grievances, his heart was suddenly settled, and when he heard Li Yu's question, he hurriedly stepped forward, nodded and said: "The small one is the shopkeeper here." ”

Li Yu said: "Did you hear his words?" ”

The shopkeeper looked embarrassed and said curtly: "I heard, I heard." ”

Li Yu said lightly: "What about his money?" ”

The shopkeeper was a little surprised, but he immediately said, "It's still piled up on the case, and the small ones haven't been confiscated." ”

The shopkeeper spoke, quickly pouting, and motioned for the two men to take out the money. The money had been put into three separate purses, and they had all been withdrawn. Li Yu took it in his hand and put it back in Liu Xiaoxiao's hand, Liu Xiaoxiao looked at him with some surprise, looking confused.

Li Yu helped him up and said, "You can go." ”

Liu Xiaoxiao looked at him in surprise and said hesitantly, "You...... You let me go? ”

Li Yu nodded.

Liu Xiaoxiao couldn't believe it, for fear that he would be stabbed by Li Yu as soon as he turned around, and asked again: "You really let me go?" ”

Li Yu stared at him and said slowly, "You just chose a good name." ”

Liu Xiaoxiao said suspiciously: "What? ”

Li Yu looked up at the sky, and the corners of his eyes slowly moistened: "There are some things that I have forgotten for a long time, and I often want to remember them, but I don't know where to start." The name you just came up with reminds me of many memories of my youth, and my heart is sweet and sour, and I want to shed tears, but I ...... It's just a willingness to remember. Because of this feeling, I'll let you go once. ”

Liu Xiaoxiao looked at Li Yu blankly.

Li Yu suddenly smiled at him: "The mountains are high and the waters are long, and there will be no time in the future." Brother Ji, take care all the way! ”

Liu Xiaoxiao was full of suspicions, but he also saw that Li Yu was really going to let him go, so he hurriedly picked up the money bag and fled out in a panic.

Behind the crowd, Liangchen Meijing changed into a men's robe, and also pasted a fake beard, and looked over here. When they went to change their clothes, they delayed for a while, and they missed the previous good show. But now they have seen this scene.

Liangchen narrowed his eyes and said, "This guy seems to have some grudges with Li Yu. ”

Meijing said curiously: "Do you want to keep him, maybe ...... There are a few things that can be dug up for plum fish. ”

Liangchen touched his chin and groaned, and said, "You continue to follow Li Yu, and I'll take a trip." ”

Meijing nodded, and Liangchen turned around and chased after Liu Xiaoxiao.

Liu Xiaoxiao folded out of the thirteenth block, came to the bustling downtown area, turned his head to look, Li Yu really let him go, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help showing a smug smile.

What he just said is almost true, but not all of it. He did leave Luo Kedi, and Geng Laosi did keep targeting him, making him in an embarrassing situation, but the real reason why he left was not because Luo Ke was a rabbit and a dead dog, but because he stole Luo Kedi's knife book.

Luojia knife is originally a double-knife flow of technical exercises. Back then, Luo Badao and Luo Ke's first line separated, Luo Badao's ancestor got the right-hand knife spectrum, and Luo Ke's enemy first vein got the left-hand knife spectrum, since Liu Xiaoxiao knew this secret, his right hand was abolished, and he has always wanted to get this set of knife spectrum.

In the end, he succeeded. In this way, of course, he can't get along in Longyou. As for the fact that since the Luo family is famous for its knives, why Luo Ke is nicknamed "White Horse Silver Spear", the reason for this is not enough for outsiders.

Liu Xiaoxiao stole the knife and fled to Guanzhong, he wanted to find a quiet place to practice the knife and then re-emerge from the rivers and lakes, but when he visited the West Market, he found a good iron knife, if there is a treasure knife in hand, the natural ability is on the next level, so he did not hesitate to buy it, but he was fooled, rushed back to the theory, but met Li Yu. Fortunately, that guy was stupid enough to let him go for some kind of chicken.

Liu Xiaoxiao just showed a smug smile on his face, and four big men appeared in front of him, Liu Xiaoxiao was startled, and before he could react, four big men were squeezed behind him, and he was slapped with a slap on the neck, and before he could punch out, he was coerced and flashed into a shop on the side of the road.

Pedestrians on the road are like flowing water, a stone thrown into the water, setting off a wave, but in an instant calm is restored.

Thirteenth block, No. 9 Road, in front of No. 6 ironware.

Li Yu walked over, pulled the knife from the ground, and flicked his fingers. The knife is actually not too bad, it is made of fine iron, the steel mouth is excellent, and the polishing is extremely sharp, but the steel pattern on the knife is forged. At this time, it can be clearly seen that the part that has just been chopped into the ground has been spent.

Since it is not an iron sword, the value of this knife will be greatly discounted, and its price should only be between 500 and 700 Wen, which is four or five times lower than the price of the iron sword.

Li Yu looked at the knife and sighed softly.

Everyone next to him was a little apprehensive, so they heard Li Yu say: "I just inspected this iron shop, and I still think that this place is well taken care of, and it is very well-behaved." Now it seems, however, donkey dung eggs. The surface is light, this kind of trick of raising prices and shoddy should not be the first time, right? ”

The shopkeeper was told by Li Yuyi, and his old face turned red and purple. The faces of the leaders who managed the iron line next to him were red and white for a while, and they were also very embarrassed. When they first walked into the iron shop, they were also praised, and at this time, Li Yu's words were really shameless.

Li Yu glanced at them and said, "According to the rules, how should such illegal transactions be handled?" ”

The chief inspector jumped out and said angrily: "According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, when the buyer and seller negotiate the price, the people present deliberately raise or lower the price to confuse others, and take profits from it into their own pockets, and the rod is eighty!" Come on, knock these two bastards down on me! ”

The inspector pointed to the two nurses who were pretending to be guests, and four big men rushed out from behind, holding water and fire sticks in their hands, and thrashed them into the crooks of their knees, so painful that they both fell to the ground with a bang, and someone immediately stepped on one foot on their backs to prevent them from twisting, and then the other person picked up the water and fire sticks and beat them.

In the sound of crackling meat, the master of the iron shop also rushed forward, pointed to the shopkeeper and said, "There is a person who sells indiscriminately and narrowly, and the rod is sixty." In this way, the profit is calculated, and the crime is calculated. Whoever is heavier than sixty rods shall be regarded as theft. One foot of profit, sixty rods, one horse plus one. This knife is only worth 500 Wen, selling for 2,600 Wen, selling for 2,100 Wen more, and a silk horse is worth 600 Wen, which is equivalent to three and a half times more profit, and the crime is added to the fourth class, beat! Beat me to death! ”

At that time, several big men rushed forward, held down the earth-colored shopkeeper, picked up the sticks, and crackled and beat him.

Li Yu frowned, listening to them talk about Tang Lu, he was obviously extremely strict in dealing with bullying and dominating the market, and abducting and deceiving. And the punishment is so severe, which also proves from another angle that this kind of thing is too rampant, so the government has to impose strict punishment and strict law to deal with it.

In fact, in ancient times, there were many righteous merchants and good merchants, on the one hand, because of the popularity of the moral ideas of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith, and on the other hand, because many businessmen had fixed stores and fixed customers.

However, there are also short-sighted people, such as the shopkeeper who used to play Zhuo Wenjun to help sell wine when Jixiang was in Lizhou. There is no shortage of black-hearted profiteers, such as the shopkeeper of the No. 6 blacksmith shop, but he will also have some scruples and deceive foreigners.

It's not a time or two since he deceived guests, in fact, this master knows everything about it. But you are directly guilty of the new mayor, which is very accommodating, and you deserve to be beaten. Fortunately, although the punishment at this time is often sixty or seventy rods, but this rod is not as good as the special execution rod of the Jinyi Guard in the Hou City, if the rod is solid, twenty rods can beat people to death, this kind of ordinary stick, the torturer avoids the vital point, although the skin is unavoidable, but it is not to worry about life.

Li Yu also lost his face at this time, and said, "Let's go, let's go and take a look elsewhere!" ”

When Chen Feiyang saw that Li Yu still had one foot exposed, he quickly took off his boots and handed them over diligently: "Xiao Langjun, wear this small pair." ”

Li Yu glanced at him and said, "Forget it, you should dress yourself, in case you have athlete's foot." ”

Chen Feiyang looked at Li Yu's back with a blank expression: "Athlete's foot? Why do feet get angry? Xiao Langjun was angry, but it was really unreasonable. ”

When they didn't wear them, he had to put his old boots back on and quickly followed.

At this time, those presumptuous chiefs, Jia Shi, tax collectors and others had already hidden all their various personal weapons and hurriedly followed Li Yu. One by one, they secretly complained: the entire thirteenth district, and the Tiehang here, because there were the least customers trading on the spot, seemed to be the most orderly, so they deliberately made a small detour and led Li Yu here first.

Taking advantage of this little effort, they have already sent someone to inform the other eight-way merchants to be prepared. But the time is too rushed, I'm afraid it's too late to hide anything, Li Yu is in a hurry, and he can't delay his time, at this moment, the first fire of the new officials in office, I'm afraid that they will burn their heads.

Therefore, everyone inevitably complained about Li Yu. This mayor doesn't know how to advance or retreat, everyone is vague about you and Boss Rao, and even gives you face, and there is no embarrassment in the move. Gifts are still exchanged, you should also save some face for everyone, as for this?

At this time, Liangchen ordered someone to get Liu Xiaoxiao away, and hurried back, just in time to see Li Yu striding meteor, and all the leaders tended to leave behind.

When Meijing saw her arrive, she looked back and smiled: "This Li Yu is really hot-tempered, it looks like today, his team is going to be disgraced, and their faces are ugly." ”

Liangchen frowned and said, "Wouldn't it be too hasty to do this?" See through, don't say it. Once it is broken, everyone's face is ugly, and there is no room for looping, even if you want to make a difference, you should slowly figure it out. Seeing him so reckless, I can't believe that he was the one who cleverly planned to kill Rao Geng. ”

Meijing said with a smile: "Compared with our boss, his temperament is a little anxious after all." ”

Meijing paused in a tone, and said in unison with Liangchen: "However, I like it!" ”

As soon as this sentence came out, both of them were stunned, glanced at each other, and explained in unison: "I mean, the old man is old and good, and he swallows it too gently." ”

This sentence is a little longer, but the two of them are twin sisters, and they are the same, word for word.

Upstairs, Chang Jiannan was approving things, and suddenly sneezed loudly, thinking that he had a cold. He rubbed his nose and was about to tell Liangchen Meijing to bring him a cup of ginger tea, but when he turned his head, he found that the two were not around, so they saved their leave early in the morning and went to see Li Yu take office with great interest.

Chang Jiannan put down his pen, thinking about the pair of playful and cute little girls, his heart was sweet, first smiled, and then showed some sentimental expressions, this pair of babies, they didn't know that they were their biological fathers, he pushed open the window, this window was designed by Yang Siqi when he built the upstairs.

From this position, as soon as the window was opened, the chessboard-like neat Chang'an neighborhood jumped into view, but Chang Jiannan's gaze did not stop for a moment, he only raised his eyes slightly, and his gaze swept over this magnificent majestic city, looking at Zhongnan Mountain in the sky and south of the capital.

Although the mountain was eighty miles away, it was difficult for him to see, but he seemed to see it clearly.

Zhongnan Mountain, Qinghua Peak, where the love of his life is buried, the biological mother of the beautiful scenery: "Sijun is like flowing water, how can there be poverty." Xiuning, are you okay on that day? ”
