Chapter 43, Iron Hand, Mercy Star
Chapter 43, Iron Hand, Mercy Star
The bluestone floor of Qingshan City rumbled, and a horse-drawn carriage drove by Yanmo Street, the main street of Qingshan City, in a leisurely manner, which was magnificent and incomparable. In the respectful and fearful eyes of the onlookers, he stopped at the Sunset Inn.
At this time, Jun Xiaoran, who had just opened his doors for less than an hour to do business, walked out of the door, and happened to meet the carriage with the solemn majesty that came to his face. Dressed in the delicate cloth robe carefully selected and prepared for him by Shen Luoyan, Jun Xiaoran smiled and looked at the carriage that was driving to the Xieyang Inn with a majestic momentum.
It is not difficult for some people with vision to see that this carriage should come from the south, and it can be seen that the carriage has the effects of anti-corrosion, rain, and inflation in the many traces of the carriage. The weather in the north is dry, and these effects are basically not needed.
The material used to make this carriage is ordinary, not a rare wood such as hundred-year-old nanmu, but an ordinary elm tree. Although there are not many such carriages in the not-so-prosperous Qingshan City, there are many of them. The path of this carriage can leave the viewer with a sense of respect and shock because the outer surface of the carriage is covered with a thick layer of black iron armor, and even the horses pulling the carriage are also iron armor.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this carriage is not an ordinary civilian carriage, but an army or official carriage. In fact, the people in Qingshan City have basically recognized that the owner of these two carriages is none other than the governor of Qingshan City, Yin Zhang Zuo.
The shopkeeper Li of the Xieyang Inn who was full of enthusiasm to send Jun Xiaoran out of the door saw the carriage pop and suddenly knelt on the ground, although his somewhat cloudy eyes flashed with different colors, and the afterglow wandered back and forth between Jun Xiaoran and the carriage, and he secretly wondered in his heart: "Lord Fu Yin didn't come to find Jun Gongzi, right?" ”
A few days ago, Qiao Feng and Murong Fu staged a comeback drama in the inn, and they have been praised by the streets and alleys so far.
Shopkeeper Li has a lot of thoughts. But at this moment the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a man stepped out of the carriage.
Jun Xiaoran smiled and looked at the person who came out of the carriage, that person was not the Master of Fu Yin as expected by Shopkeeper Li, but a young man with a body like an ancient pine, a temperament like a sword, and a cold expression, almost everyone looked at this young man with a look of joy and respect on his face.
Jun Xiaoran looked at the young man in front of him with a smile and uncovered the riddle: "Lord Tie Shou is here today for the murder that happened in Qingshan City a few days ago?" ”
The only person in Qingshan City who can make the people show surprise and reverence is the six doors that were born to do things for the people and enforce the law impartially The six doors are called the Iron Catcher. Seeing the iron hand, Shopkeeper Li was even more frightened. Could it be that this gentleman has committed something again? But things were not as Mr. Li expected.
has always enforced the law like a mountain, and the cold and decisive iron hand's cold face showed a rare soft look, and said: "The murder case of the Xieyang Inn has been solved during the two days of serious injuries of the iron hand, and today the iron hand came to the Xieyang Inn just to find the prince of the king, I wonder if the prince has time?" ”
"Nope!" In front of everyone's eyes, when everyone was shocked by Tie Shou's words, Jun Xiaoran refused with a smile, he looked at Tie Shou and said, "Lord Tie Shou has many ears and eyes. It should be clear that today is the period of the decisive battle between me and the Palace Lord of the Shifting Flower Palace, I hope that I will not experience any disturbance during this period, and I ask Lord Tie Hand to forgive me. ”
"In that case, the Iron Hand has taken the liberty of it. However, Tieshou also asked Jun Gongzi to come to Tieshou's residence after today's decisive battle, and Tieshou hopes to consult Jun Gongzi if he has something? ”
"If after this battle, Jun has a chance to survive, he will definitely visit Lord Iron Hand. Ask for a pot of wine to drink. ”
Iron Hand chuckled softly, turned to his horse, and stood on the carriage. Tie Shou looked at Jun Xiaoran and said word by word: "Tie Shou believes that Jun Gongzi can save his life even if he does not win." With that, he closed the curtain of the carriage, and the carriage, under the tutelage of the coachman, turned the horse's head and went away, leaving only the sound of the horse's hooves striking the ground.
Jun Xiaoran stood in front of the door with a smile, looking at the carriage that gradually disappeared from his sight, the corners of his mouth hooked up a slight arc, and muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear: "The two of them left, but they threw the problem to me, hehe, it's really okay!" ”
In this world, only Ying Yue and Shen Luoyan know that the last person to meet the gods and demons in the Purple Gold Forest is him. As for what the gods and demons said to Jun Xiaoran, only Jun Xiaoran knows.
The only thing that can be found from Jun Xiaoran's face is to find some clues: the gods and demons definitely said some unusual and even shocking words with Jun Xiaoran, as for whether it is made public, it depends on Jun Xiaoran's own meaning, no one can force him to do what he is not willing to do. From this point of view, whether it is the swordsman in the past, the ordinary, or the Jun Xiao dye before the amnesia, or the Jun Xiao dye after the amnesia, there is no change.
For the surprised look around him, Jun Xiaoran, who has long been accustomed to it, will naturally not waste his energy on this, even if he has excess energy, he will not waste his mind on this, and will not waste his mind on things that have no meaning, although this sentence Jun Xiaoran has never spoken, but it is his usual code of conduct, smiled and said hello to the shopkeeper Li who was already stunned, and then went in the direction of Qiankun drunk, as for the eyes of the people around him, he had already ignored it.
As soon as Qiankun was drunk, he could tell that it was a restaurant. However, this restaurant can be regarded as first-class in the restaurant system in the world in terms of environment, furnishings and service, but this restaurant with elegant environment, thoughtful service and exquisite facilities rarely opens, but every time it opens, it will attract a large number of people to watch and stop, so once the door is opened, it can at least mean that there is at least one thing to happen in the rivers and lakes.
Jun Xiaoran has a wooden sign on his body that is not much stronger than the carpenter's apprentice, and this wooden card is the key to getting drunk. Every year, the owner who gets drunk will only issue five such wooden cards, and Jun Xiaodye is lucky and happens to get one.
With this wooden card, Jun Xiaoran can make Qiankun, who has 36 branches in the world, get drunk and open the door for him.
This rule has been in place for thirteen years, and it has not been changed. Jun Xiaoran passed through the gate opened in Qingshan City, the gate was closed, and you could see the drunk servants of Qiankun carefully cleaning up the originally very clean hotel, smiling slightly, he did not enter Qiankun and get drunk, of course, if he took out the ugly wooden card on his body and went into Qiankun to get drunk, the shopkeeper of Qiankun would naturally treat him warmly, but Jun Xiaoran was unwilling, he was not willing to owe half of the favor of the drunk master of Qiankun, and it was difficult to repay the favor.
Xieyang Inn is one of several inns near Qiankun Yidrunk, and it is precisely because the Xieyang Inn is close to Qiankun Yidrunk, so Jun Xiaoran moved into the Xieyang Inn at that time without hesitation after the murder case at the Xieyang Inn, so that Ji Wufeng found him because of the murder of the Xieyang Inn.
Thinking of Ji Wufeng, Ji Wufeng has not been seen since August 14. However, according to the look of the iron hand, I think Ji Wufeng should also be lucky and come back from the dead, after all, Fu Yin Mansion did not carry Ji Wufeng's coffin.
In addition to the Xieyang Inn, there are three or four inns near the Qiankun Drunken Restaurant, such as the Xinghua Inn, the Lao Wang Inn and the Jiangnan Inn. Among them, "Jiangnan See" is the closest to Qiankun getting drunk, and the guests in the "Jiangnan See" inn have already been full, as for the reason, it is not that there is a man of the year on August 18 in the Jiangnan Inn.
No one has to admit that Ying Yue is a peerless beauty, and no one dares to deny that Lianxing is also a peerless beauty. It is inevitable that any man will have the heart of the moon before the water, so the pity star and the moon who live in the Jiangnan See Inn have become the living signboard of the inn.
The owner of the inn was a scholar with some knowledge, but his talent was limited, and he participated in the imperial examination before the age of thirty, and he never passed the Jinshi examination, so he returned to Qingshan City and opened a small inn. Maybe it's the vassal elegance, maybe it's the bookish spirit that can't be stained on his body for thirty years, or maybe there is an unforgettable story about changing the name of Jiangnan for his ancestral inn.
The inn decoration is not luxurious, but it is better than the heart. The tables and chairs in the inn have been trimmed with flowers and plants in the backyard, which can be seen in the mind of the owner of the inn, so this Jiangnan Inn has always become the best resting place for many poor scholars.
In the eyes of outsiders, this is the case with the Jiangnan Inn, but Jun Xiaoran knows a little more than outsiders, that scholar is actually not the real boss of this Jiangnan Inn, the real boss of this Jiangnan Inn is already with the Demon Shuangsu Shuangfei God.
And this Jiangnan Inn was lifted in the air by God with his strong skill when God and Invite Moon met, creating a rare miracle for a person.
Today, unlike in the past, most of the people living in the Jiangnan Inn are Jianghu people, and some of them are quite famous. These well-known people in the rivers and lakes were stunned for a moment when they saw Jun Xiaoran, their eyes showed obvious confusion and awe, or in their hearts, they might have come to invite the Moon Palace Master, right?
Jun Xiaoran didn't have time to pay attention to the gazes of those people, walked straight into the inn, glanced at it, and saw the innkeeper sitting at the counter holding a copy of the "Tao Te Ching" and studying it carefully, knocked on the counter gently, and without waiting for the innkeeper to ask, he opened his mouth to express his intentions, and said: "I am a guest invited by the Lord of the Mercy Star Palace, I don't know where he is now?"
