(Thanks to "Cover Gongzi" for rewarding 1888 coins, thank you Brother Hongchen for your continued reward!) )

----------

Chang Yu and the two rode westward, and arrived at Puyang in the early morning two days later. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

A day in Puyang City, no matter what time it is, is very lively.

Chang Yu and the two registered at the city gate, paid the city gate tax, and led their horses in the city.

The gate tax is a tax paid by the ancients when they entered the city gate, similar to the toll collected by later generations when they set up stations at highway intersections.

Although it is only a few pennies, with the flow of people in Puyang City, the flow of water is also quite considerable.

Chang Yu looked at both sides of the street with interest.

The well-shaped road planning of Puyang City makes the traffic on the road orderly and orderly, and the wine shops on both sides are not as prosperous as Nanshi, but they are also full of people.

Every time after the assassination order, when you return to Puyang City, you will have this sense of estrangement from stepping into another world.

But it is precisely this kind of vulgar freshness, red men and green women, unfamiliar clothes and faces, that can pull back the tight heartstrings in the assassination.

Chang Yu chatted with Zhan Jiao and walked in the direction of the Golden Gate.

Just as Chang Yu was strolling leisurely, a familiar humanist stumbled in on the left, and shouted eagerly, "Brother Chang, Brother Zhan, it's not good!" ”

Chang Yu and Zhan Jiao heard the prestige, and the person who came was Mao San.

"Mao San, what's the matter with the injuries on your body?" Zhan Zhi rushed up, and Mao San held on to him, and asked with a puzzled expression.

"Peng Gaoyang is fighting with someone!" Mao San blurted out.

"Fight with whom?" Stretch the foot urgently.

Mao San glanced at Chang Yu and said anxiously, "Alas! Jiang Xin's gang went to Xiazhang Street to lend money again, and this time they also went to Chef He's shop and forcibly lent money to Chef He, and said that if Chef He didn't accept the debt, he would smash the store! ”

"How unreasonable!" Zhan said angrily.

"At that time, Peng Gaoyang and the three of us brothers were drinking and eating in Chef He's shop, and Brother Peng couldn't look past it, so he helped He Lao out." Mao San took two breaths and continued, "I didn't expect that Jiang Xin actually called more than a dozen thugs, all of whom were cultivated to two or three!" A few of us fought, the other party was really outnumbered, the Peng brothers rushed out of a way, let me escape back to move the rescuers, fortunately I met you! ”

Thinking that Peng Gaoyang and the others were still in danger, Chang Yu shouted, "Go!" ”

Mao San immediately rushed forward and led the way for Chang Yu and the others.

Due to the strict order to ride horses in the city, Chang Yu and Zhan Yi simply abandoned their horses and galloped away.

Xiazhang Street, to the east of Puyang City, is a small commercial neighborhood.

Due to the large number of shops on Xiazhang Street, there is often a need for funds to lend, but since Jiang Xin's gang broke into Xiazhang Street, they have driven out all the previous lenders and set up usury.

The intervention of Jiang Xin and others broke the normal balance of loans, and many shop owners were sold into slavery because they could not afford to repay the usury, and their families were ruined. During the Warring States period, slaves were still very common.

But everyone knows that Jiang Xin, these lenders, is supported by Cao Feng, and Cao Feng is the housekeeper of Xiao Weiguo's second son, Zi Nanyan's family.

As soon as they touched this relationship, they were like a tiger beard, and those who were forcibly released to usurers dared not speak out.

Chef He is a cook from the countryside, who opened a small restaurant on Xiazhang Street, quite a bit of craftsmanship, Chang Yu and others accidentally found it, and since then they have often visited it and become a regular customer.

Peng Gao is upright, and he has always been unaccustomed to evil and bullying behavior, let alone seeing Chef He, who has a little friendship, being bullied.

……

In the hinterland of Xiazhang Street, there are seven or eight wooden tables in a small shop, which has been extended to the street because of the booming business.

But at this time, the tables on the street were overturned, the plates fell to the ground, and the colorful vegetable soup was sprinkled on the ground, still steaming white, but there was no shadow of half of the guests.

On the street, all the pedestrians fled, leaving only a dozen or so vicious men, armed with sharp swords, surrounding the middle five.

Among the middle five, in addition to the two brothers Peng Gaoyang and Mao, who were wearing colors, there was also a fat middle-aged man, who was Chef He.

Chef He was wearing a shiny linen coat, with a Han scarf tied around his waist, and his face was red and shiny, I don't know if he was roasted red by the stove for a long time, or by the evil men in front of him.

Chef He's eyes were wide open, hiding behind Peng Gaoyang, sweating profusely on his forehead, staring at everyone outside without blinking, and wiping the sweat towel on his waist from time to time.

Behind Chef He, there was a girl with a delicate face, sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a pale green plain skirt, slightly taller than He's shorter cook, a little handsome, although her face was nervous, she tried her best to be calm and calm, and her eyes glared at everyone.

"I'll ask you one last time, whether you will accept this deal or not!" A sturdy man with thick eyebrows and thin eyes, holding a sword, pointed directly at Peng Gaoyang and the others, the cold light flashed, and his eyes asked sharply.

"Brother Peng, forget it, my Chef He is an honest man, I can't fight them, it's a big deal to work for nothing......" Chef He was no taller than Peng Gaoyang's chest, grabbed Peng Gaoyang's arm with both hands, raised his head and asked tremblingly.

"No!" Peng Gaoyang shouted angrily, "Jiang Xin, you bully other people, I Peng Gaoyang can't control it, but this cook, getting up early and greedy for darkness, is nothing more than making some living money, and the business is finally improving, don't you even let go of this kind of person!" ”

"Just let him go!" Jiang Xin rolled his eyes, looked greedily at the girl behind Chef He, and said with a smile, "Then exchange this little girl for it!" ”

"No!" When Chef He heard this, his face turned white with fright, his hands stretched out, stopped in front of the girl, and said nervously, "I'll take it, I'll take it, I'll take it!" You can't touch her! ”

"Daddy!" The girl was also taken aback, the calm look on her face was long gone, and she hid behind Chef He.

"Jiang Xin, don't deceive people too much!" The taller Mao Da swung his sword in front of Chef He and the others, and Mao Er also went around behind the girl to prevent the rear.

"Manly man, there is a kind of big battle with me Peng Gaoyang, bullying more and less, what kind of hero!" Peng Gaoyang said fraudulently.

"Hehe, I, Jiang Xin, am a despicable villain, what can you do with me......"

"Then hit a despicable villain like you!"

A loud shout came, the voice was extremely familiar, Peng Gaoyang's heart moved, and he couldn't help but look at it.

I saw a tall and handsome shadow, from twenty steps away, flying towards Jiang Xin with a prostrate position on the ground, the speed was amazing!

Before Jiang Xin could react, the figure had already rushed to him!

He was taken aback, and no matter who it was, he swung his wrist and slashed down with his sword!

"Cloud Flipper!"

The right hand of the figure was combined as a sword palm, and it was pushed upward, and the momentum of the attack was much faster than the speed of Jiang Xin's knife.

The palm of his hand hit Jiang Xin's elbow, and when he hit his arm, he bounced back and smashed it on his chin, causing Jiang Xin's mouth to be fishy, his teeth and blood flying, and his body was unstable.

The figure's left hand slapped Jiang Xin's lower abdomen, knocking his entire body into the air and flipping half a circle.

"Ascending Cloud Legs!"

As soon as the figure drank, one turned around, swept with flying legs, and kicked towards Jiang Xin in the air!

With a muffled sound, Jiang Xin was directly kicked out, hitting several people one after another, screaming again and again, and rolling several times.

"Brother Chang!"

"Brother Chang!"

The two brothers, Peng Gaoyang and Mao, said happily.

Not far away, Zhan Zhi and Mao San also rushed over, and when they saw the tragic situation of falling to the side, they shouted happily.

Fang Cai Chang Yu flew to Jiang Xin with lightning speed and caught him off guard, thanks to a move in the "Cangyun Eight Style" "Xingyun Step".

Walking in the clouds, Chang Yu takes his own clouds and flowing water.

This move is a set of footwork, which Chang Yu realized after the transformation of light skills, and can raise the footwork to extreme speed in a short time. After fighting with Jing Hong's "Feihong Yinxue", Chang Yu understood the martial intent from it, and made some improvements to the cloud footwork, which was more explosive.

Chang Yu glanced at Jiang Xin who was lying on the ground, the latter looked frightened, staring at Chang Yu with resentful eyes, and he was already in pain.

A person who cultivates in the third stage was beaten by Chang Yu, who was about to reach the fifth stage, and he was beaten a few times, what good end could he have.

"Don't get out of here!" Peng Gaoyang shouted.

The other villains who were onlookers saw Jiang Xin and the others fall to the ground, and immediately scattered and fled, and several of them dragged Jiang Xin and ran away.

"Hehe, thank you Brother Chang!" Chef He breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stepped forward to thank the regular customer in front of him.

"Huh?" A bell-like voice came.

Chang Yu heard the voice, and the girl in the pale green skirt was staring at Zhan Zhi with a hesitant look.

Chang Yu glanced at Zhan Nao again, and saw that Zhan Nao was also looking at this woman in surprise, and said, "How is it ......?"
