Chapter Twenty-Three: Not Enough
(I made a mistake with the chapter number in the previous chapter, so I apologize in advance!) )
Hua Hates Liu vaguely remembers such a thing.
In prison traditions, the severed head meal is often indispensable. The so-called severed head rice is the meal eaten before the head is chopped, and sometimes it is often called "long rest rice" and "parting wine". In the previous dynasty, this meal was also called Ciyang Rice, that is, the resignation of the Yang Road, to the bridge of the underworld, this meal is often a bag of sauce elbows, a pound of flatbread, the execution ground is located at the entrance of the vegetable market, always after the autumn to ask for beheading, called "autumn decision".
It is recorded in history that whenever there is an "autumn decision", there is a pharmacy at the entrance of the vegetable market, and you will be notified on the first day: "Set up a tent, prepare wine and food, do not spread it, and pay later." ”
Eat the severed meal, drink the parting wine, the front stop is Huangquan Road, in the legend, there is a Nai He Bridge, there may be a kind old grandmother on the bridge, softly and kindly persuade you to drink a bowl of Meng Po Gou, then the past is the past, only take care of the things in front of you, step up to find a new place; Or there is an old witch with horizontal eyebrows and vertical eyes, forcing you to pour into the soup of despair, and you will be like a stranger from birth, only accompanied by this incomparably long and lonely death.
The reason why I thought of these was because Hua Hate Liu felt that the sentence of poison and death just now was clearly to remind herself that she had finished eating, so she packed up her mood and went on the road with peace of mind!
It's not fair.
Before the prisoner died, he knew that he was going to die after eating, and the food he ordered was also something that he especially wanted to eat but was not easy to eat or a delicacy that he would never forget in the depths of his memory - he didn't think that the next step was to die and retake the yin and yang road, if he knew, who would care whether it was the first recipe or the tenth recipe!
In Hua Hagoliu's opinion, two people who were obviously chatting very speculatively were about to face each other and draw their swords to see blood in the blink of an eye, and this transformation was really a bit blunt - at least, poison must die and need to give yourself time to escape or time to move the rescuers to prepare.
A flash of thought flashed in his heart here, but he never dared to say another word in his mouth to beg for mercy, the poison would die at this time, staring coldly at him Hua Hate Liu.
"The more uncertain the factor, the sooner it should be erased." It seems that in order to make Hua Hate Liu be an understanding person when he dies, Poison Must Die opened his mouth to explain.
"Otherwise, just wait."
Yang Wu said such a sentence at this time that made Hua hate Liu, and even made the poison die.
Although their positions are different, the thoughts of the two people who heard this are surprisingly ordinary: Is this Yang Wu afraid of death and begging for mercy?
Thinking about it further, poison must die immediately think that this is a ruse! I don't know how high his Yang Wu swordsmanship is, but just because he didn't poison him ten times, this person is definitely not simple! How can a person with a heart of hills and valleys beg for mercy and death?
There must be a fraud!
And what Hua Hates Liu thinks of is another aspect: The cowhide can't blow down, right? Fang Cai pretended to be leisurely, that was just the appearance, you Yang Wu was also scared to death at this time, so he couldn't help but say "Wait", he didn't expect someone to come soon to save your life!
Paper Tiger!
Just as he was about to open his mouth to reprimand the treacherous person for "not thinking", Yang Wu said another sentence that shocked the two people at the scene:
"Come on, I'll be here, I've been watching the play for a long time, come out......"
Is there anyone else here?
What happened next confirmed what Yang Wu said: there were indeed fourth and fifth people here!
I saw these two people flashing in front of the same nearly ten zhang away, showing each other, these two people looked at each other, they were all stunned, as if to say: It's you? Didn't you say me?
But since the person had come out, there was no reason to retreat, so they both smiled bitterly, stepped forward, and stopped less than two feet away from the death of the poison mortal.
Hua hated Liu only then saw the two of them dressed clearly: these two are less than twenty years old, the person on the left is like plain yarn hair like snow, the corners of the eyebrows are drawn like a bucket, decorated with colorful fireflies, faintly shining in the night, quite weird, he holds a sword in his hand, the sword is five feet long, decorated with blue, purple, yellow three-color sword spikes, standing in the wind.
The one on the right matches the one on the left, and it is also the same color, but it is black like night; This man is dressed in black, and he looks black, he closes his eyes and hates the willow only thinking that there is a big piece of black charcoal in front of him, and when he opens his eyes, he hates the willow and sees the black charcoal - black charcoal burning with a spark! This man did not hold a weapon in his hand, but behind his back, but it was a solitary knife like ink tempered by fine iron; He is also a station, but it is not a station where the weak willow follows the wind, but a station where the cold plum and the snow are proud, and a station that stands up to the sky.
"This is the Streamer Sword, huh?" Yang Wu opened his mouth abruptly and asked the man in white on the left.
"You know?" This person was stunned at first, and then covered his sleeves and smiled lightly: "City Lord Yang is worthy of being a sword saint, and there are not many people in the world who know about this streamer sword of the slave family." ”
Obviously he was a man, but the words he said were soft and charming, and he heard Hua Hate Liu's heart churning, and he couldn't suppress it after all, and turned his head to the side and spit it out.
When he was full of vomiting, he turned around and saw that the man was holding hatred at the corners of his mouth, frowning slightly, staring at himself, hurriedly wiping away the dirt from his mouth, and making a big gift to the other party: "Drink too much, sober up." ”
Regarding this explanation, the man rolled his eyes and said: "Although the slave family is not a famous person, when it comes to the word 'flower language late' in the Guanzhou area, it is also a little famous, so naturally it will not be as knowledgeable as you, a rude person." ”
Hearing the words "late flower language", Hua hated Liu turned his head sideways again, and while desperately vomiting, he regretted it to death: this "flower" surname is really disgusted!
"Then your knife is 'ten thousand'?" Yang Wu didn't seem to want to listen to this flower language too late, so he turned his head and asked the young man on the right during the intermission.
"Indeed...... Truly...... "The real ......" This person stammered, listening to Yang Wu point out the name of his knife, the light in his eyes was even more prosperous, and he nodded again and again, but he only worked "real".
After spitting out the slightly more comfortable Hua Hateliu, he thought that he only heard the sound of "real", but did the last word mean the "real" of "indeed" or the "yes" of "indeed"?
This is a problem.
Yang Wu did not show a little displeasure because of the young man's stammering, but comforted him softly: "Don't worry, if I ask you, you just need to nod and shake your head, understand?" ”
This made Hua Hate Liu look at it impressively: the other party is neither your student nor your son, you can treat the young man who is about to assassinate you with such a good attitude, why can't you treat a child with an innocent nature sincerely?
Thinking that Tian was not afraid of what he would do in marriage today, Hua Hate Liu hesitated again and again, but quietly erased the words "innocence of nature" in his heart.
When the black-clothed young man heard Yang Wu's words, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and responded, "Ming...... Bright...... Got it. After finishing speaking, he realized that his words could actually be answered by nodding his head, and he couldn't help but blush, bowing his head and saying nothing.
"You're from Huazhou?"
As soon as Yang Wu's words came out, the young man with his head down raised his head sharply at this time, his eyes full of horror. But the horror didn't mean that he forgot what Yang Wu had said, and his chin still nodded down slightly.
"You don't have to be afraid, I don't know who you work for, but not long ago I heard that the number of people who died under this 10,000-strong knife has reached 60,000, and this source is Huazhou." Seeing that the young man's expression was slightly relaxed, Yang Wu asked again: "Who are you Fang Xudong?" ”
The name Fang Xudong has never been heard of by Hua Hate Liu, but he has heard of the poison who was left out in the cold at this time. Fang Xudong became famous more than a hundred years ago, earlier than Yang Wu's master Huangfu Er, who became famous, and at that time he also used a knife called "ten thousand people" in the world, but at that time, the knife was just this name, and it did not mean "killing more than 10,000 people". And the saying that "more than 10,000 people were killed" began with Fang Xudong. It is rumored that this person entered the capital in the east and went west to the wilderness in the middle of the year, stepped south to the border and broke into the barbarians, killed the people who committed great crimes and evils, and beheaded the officials who were greedy for money and sex, and only after getting 10,000 did they seal the knife and did not know where to go.
There are already 60,000 souls under the sword......
Thinking of this, the poison must die suddenly felt a slight chill in the back of his neck, and unconsciously turned his neck.
"Ancestral ...... Shizu. The boy replied.
Hua Hateliu noticed that whether he answered "yes" or "understand" before, the boy always put the first word in front, which is also a normal word order. However, when mentioning his ancestor, the young man first put the word "ancestor" in front of him, and saw the deep respect of the young man for this ancestor, which also showed from the side that this Fang Xudong must also be a famous person.
"He's okay?" Hearing the young man's answer, Yang Wu smiled on his face, and no longer called him by his name, and said, "The old man passed by Xizhou the year before last and met with his family teacher, and I was fortunate to see him once at that time. ”
Hearing that Yang Wu still had some relationship with his own ancestor, the black-clothed young man hurriedly clenched his fists and arched, and then nodded and said, "Okay!" ”
This word was said simply, there was no trace of mud and water, and Yang Wu was also in a good mood when he heard it, and said with a smile: "It's also interesting!" ”
This laughter fell in the ears of Hua Hate Liu, and it was the same as raising his head with his back hand and looking at the moon indifferently: he was weak again, right? Laughing to hide your nervousness is pure bluffing!
"Ouch, it's obvious that the two old men are still chattering like their mothers-in-law, people have been standing here for a long time, but their backs and legs are weak, and they haven't seen Yang City Lord take the initiative to ask, it hurts!" Hua Yu's late speech is indeed "late" enough, if he could have said this earlier, Hua Hate Liu's third sip of "sobering up and spitting" would not have been held back until now before spitting out.
"Don't talk nonsense, the poisonous master won't flirt with you!" He didn't know how deep the relationship between Master Yang Wu and Fang Xudong had been, but according to the current trend, the young man in black might be almost turned against him if he pulled him around! At this time, while it is not yet there, of course, it is better to start early.
"Since they are all here to kill, it doesn't matter which side they are doing? After killing everyone, go back and receive the reward! Seeing the three people looking at him, Poison Bound gritted his teeth and said fiercely - the reason why there were three people was because the other person was "sobering up and vomiting".
"You think you can kill me?" Yang Wu chuckled and said, if Hua Hate Liu saw this smile, maybe he would really believe that Yang Wu had this confidence.
"I may not be able to do it alone, but I ...... two of them"
"It's not enough...... Yang Wu sighed slightly, interrupting the words of poison death.
"What did you say?" Poison will die, eyes open, incredible. When he asked this, Hua Yuchi frowned, and the young man in black stared, all looking at Yang Wu.
"I said, with the strength of the three of you, you want to kill me here, and you can't pay it back! No! Enough! The last three words, word by word, are full of momentum.
"Senior Brother Mofu, Tian Miya, the two of you should also come out and see each other!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present did not change color.
