Chapter 48: The gavel falls and no one stands

Ning Que came to Linhu Xiaozhu alone, looking at the faintly visible signboard in the dim light, Ning Que sneered. Watching the guests come and go in the small building, after waiting for a while, after seeing that no one came out again, he stepped inside.

"Guest officer, please inside, there are all kinds of tea in our store, please taste it."

After Ning Que sat down, Xiao Er took a rag and wiped the water stains in front of Ning Que, and asked softly, "Guest officer, what kind of tea do you want to taste?" ”

"Kuding tea!" Slowly spitting out three words, Ning Que looked at the tea master who was in charge of making tea.

When the tea master heard this, he soaked the tea leaves with hot water, poured them out, poured hot water again, poured the tea into the cup, and gently placed it in front of Ning Que.

Ning Que smiled slightly, and said loudly: "It's late at night, and there are still so many guests who are willing to drink tea here. ”

"Guest officer, please inside, there is a ...... in our store"

"Let's have a cup of Luo tincture tea."

"Okay, please sit down, guest officer, wait a moment."

Ning Que was slightly stunned, and turned his head to look at the young man who had followed him into the small building near the lake.

The other party noticed Ning Que's gaze, nodded slightly, and quietly walked to a table and sat down.

"The little guest officer has a good reputation, and the old man has been devoted to the tea ceremony for 20 years, and the people who come here to drink tea at this time are all old customers."

"Some of them grew up drinking my tea, some people grew old after drinking my tea, and some people came here just to lament the passage of time and recall their past lives."

"What the tea master said is reasonable, the tea ceremony is profound, and you can enjoy a taste of tea for a lifetime."

"This guest officer is a person who understands tea, and this pot of Luo tincture was picked from that Liuyang County not long ago. This kind of tea is born peculiarly, and the yield of a tea tree is only a few dozen leaves. ”

"Although this tea is not famous or precious, it is a must-have for people who understand tea and good tea. There is only one point here, which was originally not entertained to the public, but only used to taste it by himself when it was boring one day. ”

"Today, since the guest officer understands tea, then this cup will be given to you by the old man."

The young man smiled and nodded, then looked at everyone in the audience as if he had nothing to do, and drank tea silently.

Sit quietly at the table, take a book from your waist, and read it attentively.

Ning Que was a little anxious, he was here to kill people tonight, but there were too many people in the room.

If you make a move, you will inevitably leave many flaws, and once you are found by the imperial court, you and Sang Sang will lose your lives.

Ning Que, who was a little anxious, looked at the four people in the room, a bald monk, a sloppy old woman, a beautiful son, and a young scholar.

"What to do? Do you want to step back first, and then write an afterword? No, he's lived too long, and he'll kill him tonight!" ”

Ning Que clenched the teacup in his hand, drank it again, left a silver ingot, and turned around and walked out the door.

The four people in the audience all glanced in the direction of Ning Que's departure, and then remained silent and continued to taste tea.

Time passed in waiting, and seeing that the night was deep, the old tea master spoke: "Everyone, the small shop has been proofed today, I'm really sorry, why don't you please be early tomorrow?" ”

"You're so welcome to this store, where is the reason for a businessman to push customers out of the door? Could it be that you Tang people are so polite to guests? ”

"What this guest said is, it's just that tonight is really past the hour, in the past, in order not to disturb your guests Yaxing, it has not yet been proofed, and the shop will open tomorrow to do business, if it is too late, I am afraid that it is..."

"Hmph, you're so rude in this shop, tomorrow's guests will count tomorrow, you just need to make tea for me today."

The old tea master was silent, thinking about how to deal with it, but he saw the young man who was reading first.

"My Datang has its own rules of Datang, and Chang'an City also has the rules of curfew. It seemed ridiculous that the master spoke like this. Could it be that the Moon Wheel Country is full of unruly people? ”

The old woman was slightly stunned when she heard this, glanced at the young man who was studying, and sneered: "Are the rules of the Tang Dynasty the rules of the people of the world?" Since you know that the old body comes from the moon ring, naturally you shouldn't use the rules of the Tang Dynasty to restrain me. ”

"Really? Since the master said so, Xiao Sheng had to ask. If you don't use the rules of the Tang Dynasty, do you want to use the rules of the Moon Wheel Country? Then if my Tang people go to the Moon Wheel Country, wouldn't they be able to disobey the rules? ”

Tang Ning smiled slightly, held the book in his left hand, picked up the cup of tea that had just been filled with his right hand, and put it down after a slight tea.

"Since you have entered my Datang, you should respect the rules of Datang, after all, you are guests and we are the hosts."

The two clashed one after another, and the old man also found that something was wrong, and said after saluting: "Two guest officers, there is no need to argue, you are a guest from afar, since you want to drink tea, I will let him stay here, and the old man will not disturb you Yaxing." ”

The old tea master put his hands behind his back and slowly walked out of the lakeside building with the shopkeeper in his hands.

In the tea room, the tea master silently looked at the field, turned around and entered the backyard, and there was no more figure.

Since Tang Ning spoke up, the monk and the son of the family have been watching from the sidelines.

Outside the door, Ning Que watched the old tea master come out, and quietly tightened the Pu Dao behind him.

Unhurriedly following him, in Chang'an City, where there is no moonlight, the night is always dark. The shopkeeper held a torch, the firelight illuminated the road in front of him, and the two of them were in the narrow alleyway, the firelight was swaying, and the figure was very long.

"Old Yan, I'm home here, this is for you, the road is far away in the dark, you always be careful and walk slowly."

The old tea master nodded, took the torch, and continued walking.

"Come out, you've followed all the way, and now there's no one around, so you can show up."

"You know I'm following you, but you're deliberately luring me here?"

"Yes, the old man doesn't have many enemies, and I also want to know who your Excellency is."

"Hahaha~ Yan Suqing, you really don't have many enemies. Years ago, all of your enemies were dead. ”

"So you're his man. More than ten years have passed since that incident, and time has passed, but I didn't expect that someone would find the old age. ”

"Less nonsense, young master, I'm here to take your life!"

Yan Suqing didn't look back, his slightly old face showed a hint of a smile.

In the small building near the lake, Master Qu Ni looked at the young man who was reading not far away.

"Who are you?"

Downing flipped through a page of the book and smiled again, as if he had discovered something interesting in the book.

"You came to me, and you didn't know who I was?"

With these words, the three of them suddenly looked at Tang Ning, and Master Qu Ni sneered.

"It turns out that you are the disciple of the academy who has entered the demon!"

"Disrespectful, isn't it just below, I don't know what a few people want to sneak into Chang'an late at night?"

"I heard that Mr. Four has fallen into the devil, as a disciple of the academy, doesn't the academy plan to give an explanation to this world?"

"Confession?"

Tang Ning smiled, smiled warmly, calmly, and turned a page of the book again to read.

"I don't know what kind of explanation Master Qu Ni wants me to give? Kill yourself, or will you send you to superbirth? ”

"Now that you have fallen into the devil, you deserve to be condemned."

"Hehe, Master Qu Ni is really respectable, he just entered Chang'an, and he wants my life as soon as he opens his mouth?"

"The fourth gentleman of the academy, the adopted son of the king of Mochi Garden, has fallen into the devil and should be punished!"

Tang Ning smiled, he knew that Qu Nimati was the sister of the Lord of the Moon Wheel Country, and he also knew that the Moon Wheel Country and the Great River Country had always been hostile.

Tonight, since she appeared here, she naturally wouldn't let this God-given opportunity slip out of her hands easily.

Once Tang Ning is punished, it can not only weaken the academy, but also hit the ink pond garden, and the Buddhist sect and the Yuelun country will benefit immensely.

"The master is determined by life and death, Tang Ning follows it, I will sit here, if you can take my life, it will be regarded as the ability of the three of you, if you do it but fail to take my life, then ......"

The teacup in the hand of Prince Longqing was crushed by him, the monk's closed eyes opened, and Master Qu Ni was furious when he heard this.

"Tang Ning, don't forget, although the old body is not as good as you, but I am the sister of the lord of the Moon Wheel Country, even if Li slowly sees the old body, I have to call my aunt respectfully, how do you dare to take the old body?"

"You really think highly of yourself, no matter how high your rank is, it's just in the Moon Wheel Country. In my Datang territory, you are just an old woman who doesn't know the rules and doesn't know how to be polite. ”

"Senior brother, I respect you because I think you are old and frail, and you can't call you an old woman when you live a handful of years."

"You... Since you are so rude today, if you meet Wang Lang Xiao'er in the future, the old body will definitely have to reason with him! ”

Tang Ning closed the book, glanced lightly at the monk with an unkind face, ignored the annoyance in Long Qing's eyes, and took a step in the direction where the three of them were.

The monk was shocked and hurriedly offered the wooden fish in his hand, Qu Ni looked nervous, holding the cane in his hand tightly, and Long Qing clenched his hands tightly, and finally slowly let go.

"If you don't have the courage of a horseman, you dare to call yourself a great virtue? Master Qu Ni, you seem to be afraid of me? ”

"Huangkou Xiaoer, the old man is upholding righteousness in his body, what is he afraid of? Do you dare to kill the old body? ”

"Haha, it's a good sentence to uphold righteousness in the body."

"Downing! What do you want to do? Could it be that in front of both Xiling and Buddhism, you dare to kill people? Don't you think that the academy is really the supreme in the world, and the Tang Dynasty is invincible? ”

"Murder? No, I'm not going to kill. But you, old woman, will kill me when she opens her mouth, and I naturally can't let the three of you go out standing up. ”

"If it is for the sake of your three lives, it is not cost-effective to put the Tang Dynasty in turmoil and the people to suffer."

Qu Nimati's expression was slightly relaxed, and her eyes were still full of vigilance. The monk clasped his hands together and remained silent.

But as soon as the momentum of relaxation started, Tang Ning waved his sleeves slightly.

With a snap, Master Qu Ni was slapped to the ground.

The monk hurriedly wanted to drop the gavel in his hand, but the gavel seemed to be afraid of the smiling man in the air, and he couldn't fall for a long time.

Seeing this, Long Qing slowly pulled out the long sword on the desk.

He has been ignored since then.

As the son of light enshrined by the people of Xiling, as the prince of Yan Kingdom, how angry he is, how can he endure such humiliation.

Choking~ The long sword glowed with cold light, and Long Qing quickly stabbed Tang Ning in front of him in the back.

"Boom~"

An invisible energy tightly wrapped the long sword, and the sword stopped a foot behind Tang Ning's head, unable to move an inch further.

Although Long Qing was frightened, he was not panicked when he was prepared.

Just as he was about to draw his sword and return, he found that the long sword was so heavy that he couldn't shake it at all.

Master Qu Ni spat out a mouthful of blood and scolded: "Shaft, you are looking for death!" ”

Although the old woman cursed loudly, the crutch never dared to lift it.

Even invisibly, her figure retreated slightly, slowly widening the distance between her and Tang Ning.

The monk silently put down the gavel, which had long been uncontrollable. With his hands folded, a mysterious and complicated, bullshit scripture gradually came out.

Tang Ning was still laughing, and he didn't see any movement, and the small mallet fell lightly and struck on the wooden fish.

Honk~

The knock was so light that it caused a ripple in the air. Ripples spread out from the wooden fish, like ripples in the water.

The monk was shocked, his eyes widened angrily, and before he could react, he was swept away by the unknown but extremely powerful ripples.

The ripples swept the monk backwards until it hit the wall behind him.

And the ripples were obviously not only aimed at the monk, Long Qing, who was behind Tang Ning, had already fainted to the ground with blood in his mouth when the wooden fish sounded, and was swept up by the energy, knocking out many tables, chairs and benches.

For the first time, Master Qu Ni set up the cane in his hand, trying to resist the ripples.

As a cultivator of the Knowing Destiny Realm, although her strength is not strong, it is far from being comparable to Longqing and that monk.

The ripples were blocked by the dense net woven by his crutches, but the soft sound reached Qu Nimati's ears through the dense web.

Blood flowed down his eyes, ears, mouth and nose, and Master Qu Ni's mind sank, and his hands left the crutches.

The crutches that lost their master, like a dead thing that had lost its life, were swept away by the ripples, and with it, of course, the old lady Qu Ni.

As the ripples and the sound disappeared, only Long Qing was the only one who could still wake up in the small building near the lake.

Tang Ning took the cup of warm tea and drank it, holding the book in his hand, and walked out the door.

Long Qing stared at that back, he was extremely weak at the moment, all the internal organs in his body were shattered, the Qi Sea and Snow Mountain were also on the verge of collapse, and his heart was gradually dying.

"I kept you alive because I needed you to bring your respective dogs home. After tomorrow, if I can't control those dogs, I'll teach them what the rules are! ”

"Children of Light? But that's it. ”

"Remember, send these three people out of Chang'an, you have to be careful on the way, don't die in Chang'an City."

A faint voice echoed in the small building near the lake, and the tea master who didn't know where to hide walked into the lobby tremblingly.

He glanced at the old woman and the monk who had fallen into a coma, and did not pay attention to it, but looked at Prince Longqing with a nervous expression.

"Your Royal Highness, how are you?"

PS: Thank you for the reward from the book friend Hongnong Yang's starting point. Thank you, old cowt!
