Xie Dalang's lair is in Qujiang Pond. Qujiang Pond is in the southeast corner of Chang'an City, which is a famous scenic spot in Chang'an, but it is sparsely populated and there are almost no people. The east of Chi is the royal garden Hibiscus Garden, which is brightly lit, but the west of Chi is empty, where Xie Dalang and more than a dozen rogue teenagers make their home.

Although the residence is not very good, there is a lot of good wine, Xie Dalang took a bottle of Jiannan Roasted Spring, sandwiched two bags of beef, took Li Zaixing around Qujiang Pond for a while, and sat down on a pavilion by the pool. Those teenagers who received Xie Dalang's notice and were preparing to fight when they saw this posture, they all looked at each other, didn't know what was going on, were stunned for a moment, and dispersed.

Xie Dalang picked up the wine glass, pointed to the sparkling pool noodles, and said with a smile: "Don't look at the desertion now, in a few days, it will be lively here, especially the Shangsi Festival, even our brothers have to avoid it, and make room for those who travel in spring." ”

"Will Da Lang also collect protection money at that time?"

Xie Dalang squirted out all the wine in his mouth with a "poof". He turned his head and looked at Li Zaixing through the faint light in the distance: "Brother Li, are you happy with me?" The campers who came here are either rich or expensive, and even a gentleman like Wei Saburo doesn't dare to be presumptuous, you let me collect protection money? ”

"It seems that Da Lang's ambition is not big enough." Li Zaixing smiled, raised his wine glass, touched it with Xie Dalang, and drank it all. Xie Dalang looked at Li Zaixing, and suddenly smiled: "You're not afraid that I will poison you?" ”

"Even if it's poisonous, before the poison happens, I can kill you, and I won't lose money."

Xie Dalang was speechless, and only after a while did he pick up his thumb and praise: "You are ruthless enough, I can't do it." ”

Li Zaixing secretly smiled bitterly, and said in his heart that I am ruthless enough and reckless because I don't know if I have a tomorrow. I don't know who I am, maybe I was targeted as soon as I showed up in Chang'an, and I don't know if I was killed in the corner one day. Taking a step back, I don't know if this is a big dream, maybe one day I will wake up, I will lie on the icy frozen soil of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the 21st century, and the trip to the Tang Dynasty is just a dream. For me, every moment could be the last, and of course I dared to fight for my life. Don't talk about Wei Sanlang, even if the emperor Lao Tzu is in front of me, I dare to pick him with one shot.

"In a hundred years of life, who can not die?" Li Zaixing picked up his wine glass: "If you want to live, you have to live to the fullest, otherwise you will be a ranger." ”

"Having said that, there are a few people who can really see as clearly as Brother Li." Xie Guanglong sighed and drank all the wine in the cup: "Men should be rampant, and the Son of Heaven is very colorful. The husband should make meritorious deeds, seal his wife and son, and win the name before and after his death, that is called happiness. If I die like this, I am not reconciled. ”

"If you want to make a career and make a wife, why don't you go to the border to join the army, but be a ranger here?"

"Do you think you can go to the border if you want to?" Xie Dalang pouted: "Guanshan is thousands of miles, even the nearest Fanyang is four or five thousand miles, without a road guide, you can't eat and stay in the official post house, just the food and drink expenses along the way are a headache, not to mention that you are in the army in vain, without a saddle horse armor, how difficult it is to make meritorious contributions." Maybe if I can't get to the border, I will become a starvation on the side of the road. ”

"You control the ranger scoundrel of the Jingshi, and you don't even have this money?"

Xie Dalang was silent for a moment, and couldn't help laughing, full of self-deprecation: "I have collected a lot of money, but I also have a group of brothers to support." The brothers have no proper job, and they refuse to wronged themselves, they have to drink wine and eat meat every day, listen to music and watch dances, spend a lot of money, and can't save a few dollars. ”

"I'm afraid I have to take out a large part of filial piety." Li Zaixing said: "If the filial piety is not in place, the martial artists in the workshop will not be so polite." ”

"It's nature." Xie Dalang sighed, his expression depressed: "Seventy percent of the money I collected went into their pockets. Even so, you have to be careful, and if you are not careful, your life will be in danger. He glanced at Li Zaixing and said with a wry smile: "In addition to the exploitation of the official family, there are also the eyes of the peers. Brother Li just arrived in Beijing yesterday, and he came to grab my territory today, is he too anxious? ”

Li Zaixing laughed and told him about the situation of taking over the safety of Bodhi Temple. "Actually, I don't have much interest in your business, it's just my duty, so I can only make this decision. Today is the third year of junior high school, and in four or five days, I can't train those monks to become masters. Shoot people and horses first, capture thieves and capture kings first, and find you, the thief leader, to do things. ”

Xie Dalang listened and nodded frequently: "Brother Li is fighting for territory, but he is using the art of war, could it be that he is behind the gate?" ”

Li Zaixing smiled bitterly: "Don't tell Da Lang that I grew up in the temple and don't know who my parents are." ”

"Really?" Xie Dalang put down his wine glass and scratched his head: "In this way, we have the same disease." I don't know who my parents are, I wandered all over the world, learned some martial arts, came to the capital a few years ago, and I wanted to take a martial arts test with my ability to serve the country. Unexpectedly, now the martial arts not only have to test the martial arts, but also have to pay the family certificate and the guarantee certificate, and I don't even have the qualifications to sign up, so I have to live in the capital and eat with my fists and feet. ”

"The rangers of the Jingshi Zhufang were all subdued by you?"

"It's not that easy." Xie Dalang smiled bitterly: "With my status, I can only mess with a ranger like Zhang Wan who has no family background, and a child of a family like Wei Sanlang, how dare I provoke it." This morning, I heard that someone killed Wei Sanlang's people outside the city and robbed him of his money, I admired it very much, but I never thought that it was you who did it, Brother Li. ”

"It's a little thing, it's not worth talking about." Li Zaixing stood up and clapped his hands: "Since Da Lang also has difficulties, I am not reluctant." The money that should be paid by Bodhi Temple, I will send you a lot of money. But this money is not taken for nothing, if someone goes to Bodhi Temple to make trouble, I will also come to you Xie Dalang, and then I will have to see a superior. ”

Xie Dalang shook his head and said: "The eldest husband has made a word, and it is difficult for the horse to chase, since I said that the business of Pingkangfang is yours, I will not collect another money." I will make it clear to Zhang Wan and the others tomorrow, if they are willing to follow you, you will reward them with a bowl of rice to eat, if not, I will find another way out for them. Just ......"

Xie Dalang hesitated for a moment, and said with some shame: "I can only control my brother, and I can't control other people to make trouble." ”

"Anyone else?"

"Hehe, Chang'an City is so big, there are not ten thousand rangers. The East City is rich in oil and water, and Pingkangfang is the most famous place in Chang'an City, these two places are not only the targets coveted by the rangers, but also the fat in the eyes of the powerful. I am an outsider, and I have no roots, how can I cover the sky with one hand. ”

Li Zaixing scratched his head, a little disappointed. I thought that finding Xie Dalang would solve all the problems, but now it seems that I think too simply. But then again, Xie Dalang is right, how could such a big oil and water be allowed to be swallowed alone, I don't know how many people are staring here.

"Who else will come to Bodhi Temple to make a living?"

"There are no less than 100 views in Chang'an Temple, and Bodhi Temple does not show mountains and water, and no one will take a fancy to it. It's just that Bodhi Temple and Li Xiang are too close, and they will inevitably be hated. Those people couldn't move Li Xiang, so they transferred their resentment to the Bodhi Temple, among which the Luoyang Gang, which was raised by the Yang family, was the strongest. The leader's surname is Pei, which seems to be a branch of the Pei family in Hedong, and it is said that he has the strength of a thousand catties and a good martial arts, so Brother Li should be careful to deal with it. ”

"Luoyang Gang? Hedong Pei's family? ”

"That's right, the Yang family and the Pei family are very close, Yang Zhao's wife is from the Hedong Pei family, and Mrs. Qiuguo is also married to the Hedong Pei family."

"I see." Li Zaixing stood up and turned around to leave, when Xie Dalang reminded again: "Brother Li, the Hedong Pei clan is not monolithic. The Pei family, to which Pei Guangting, the late prime minister of Pingkangfang, belonged, was at odds. ”

Li Zaixing stopped, glanced back at Xie Dalang, and the corners of his mouth were crooked: "Since Da Lang knows, why don't you take the initiative to attack and tell me, you want to use me as a sword?" ”

Xie Dalang was recognized by Li Zaixing, his old face turned red, and he laughed dryly.

Li Zaixing walked back and circled around Xie Dalang twice, with a wicked smile on his face. Xie Dalang touched his nose weakly, not knowing what Li Zaixing saw again, and involuntarily took a step back.

"Xie Dalang, when I knocked down Zhang Wan, Zhang Wan said that he was going to go out of the workshop to find you, but in less than half an hour, you came. From Pingkangfang to here, nearly ten miles, twenty miles back and forth, and at night, from time to time to avoid the street guards, you appeared too quickly. In my opinion, you were already in Pingkangfang, right? ”

Xie Dalang's face was embarrassed and speechless.

"When I saw you, you were standing on the wall of the east side of Li Linfu's house. Li Linfu is known as a traitor, and few people will respect him so much when they mention him. You keep claiming to be Li Xiang, and you are bent on turning me against the Pei family, who is supported by the Yang family, which can't help but make people reverie. Xie Dalang, you can't be Li Linfu's instigation, you just received the order to come out, right? ”

Even in the night, Xie Dalang was a little hot-skinned, and he hurriedly explained: "Brother Li misunderstood, I just saw that Brother Li had just arrived and was not familiar with the situation in Chang'an, so I wanted to remind him." I'm a cloth cloth, where can I ...... with Li Lin Fu got involved. If I really have such a backer, how can I be reduced to this point? ”

"A cloth cloth can also dominate the Chang'an rangers for a while, I don't think you are simple." Li Zaixing snorted: "What are you, I'm not interested, I see that you are bold and willing to make you a friend, but if you treat me as a fool, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people." ”

Xie Dalang was stunned for a moment, and said with a forced smile: "Brother Li is serious, how dare I show off in front of Brother Li." ”

"It's good to know." Li Zaixing strode away, and his voice came from afar: "If you are a friend, help me find out the whereabouts of my surname Pei, I want to talk to him." ”

Xie Dalang was overjoyed and raised his voice: "Brother Li, don't worry, as soon as there is news, I will inform you." ”。
