Chapter 31: Pear Blossom Lane
The sound of silk and bamboo on the street next to Pear Blossom Lane is tactful.
"This sings well, what is this singing? Under the trellis? Li Sangrou leisurely commented on the little song.
"It's like Sifu." The dark horse listened attentively.
"Sing well, let's listen to it when it's free." Li Sangrou said something idly, and suddenly raised her voice: "Golden Retriever!" ”
The golden retriever, who had been at the forefront, immediately paused, stooped down and drew a short knife from the boot.
Li Sangrou's golden haired voice fell, and she had already turned around, grabbed the black horse, and raised her hand to pull the crossbow.
Almost silently appeared behind the black horse, and the black-clothed killer who was about to swing his knife stumbled down, roared, and slashed forward.
Li Sangrou's other hand pressed on the shoulder of the black horse, and kicked on the arm of the black-clothed killer holding the knife, and the knife in the black-clothed killer's hand fell, and the person fell forward.
Li Sangrou caught the knife that the black-clothed killer had dropped and stabbed at the second killer who pounced.
The black horse dragged and pushed Li Sangrou, rolled down on the spot, pulled out the knife, and turned around to pounce.
The golden retriever turned his back to the black horse and Li Sangrou, guarding the front.
There are high walls on both sides of Pear Blossom Lane, which is too narrow to accommodate two people side by side.
The long knife in Li Sangrou's left hand stabbed straight up, and the narrow sword held in his right hand crossed the second killer and cut the artery of the third killer who was close to the second killer and pounced together.
The long knife in Li Sangrou's hand was blocked by the second killer and flew out, and the knife in the black horse's hand was close to Li Sangrou's arm, and it stabbed into the chest of the second killer with a snort.
Li Sangrou took a step back, and as the narrow sword retracted, it slashed through the neck of the second killer.
"Take a look." Li Sangrou took a few steps back, avoided the stickiness all over the ground, and commanded.
The black horse searched it very quickly, and from the neck of one of them, he grabbed a sign and said: "That's what it looks like, there are all three." ”
"Put it back, let's go." Li Sangrou took two more steps back.
The black horse sighed, stepped on the sticky out, quickly took off his dirty boots and dirty clothes, the golden retriever took off his big jacket and wrapped it, and the three of them ran along the alley, running fast.
rushed into the house of Fried Rice Lane in one go, Da Chang rushed up, smelled the blood, and asked urgently, "Are you not hurt?" ”
"Nope." The golden retriever who rushed to the front panted and stuffed the dirty boots and dirty clothes in his arms into Dachang's arms.
"I'm going to boil water." Da Chang was relieved when he heard the word, and went into the kitchen with his dirty clothes.
Li Sangrou washed it out, and the black horse had already washed himself, and was taking the dirty clothes that the golden retriever had washed clean, and drying them one by one on the long rope that had just been pulled in the middle of the yard.
Da Chang carried a stick around and just came back.
"Boss, this time! It's just not good. When the dark horse saw Li Sangrou, he hurriedly dried his clothes and hurried over.
"Two died yesterday, and today there are two more, and by tomorrow, what will this price become?" The Golden Retriever also hurried up.
Da Chang put down the stick, took the water in the basin away, and came back to bring Li Sangrou a cup of hot tea.
Li Sangrou held the cup in both hands and looked at the three of them: "These three squeezed forward together, there was no discipline at all, they should have been put together temporarily, and the two were also last time, fighting separately."
can summon two or three killers to take orders together, and the starting price of our order is definitely not low.
The man who wants to kill us is a man of silver.
From tonight onwards, everyone will sleep in one room and take turns on duty.
Insect and rodent prevention things, are you ready? ”
Li Sangrou looked at Dachang and asked.
Dachang nodded, "It's all set." I kept watch for the first half of the night. ”
Li Sangrou nodded in response, wrapped her leather jacket, and entered the west chamber.
The black horse and the golden retriever extinguished the lantern under the porch, and also entered the west chamber, and slept in their clothes.
Dachang entered the house with a bag of knives and guns, put them away, picked a knife and held it, and sat on the bed on duty.
……………………
Gu Xi got up in the morning and was having breakfast, when Wen Cheng hurriedly came in.
"What's wrong? Sit down and say. Gu Xi gestured to Wen Cheng.
Wen Cheng sat next to him, "In the Pear Blossom Lane north of Longjin Bridge, three more killer corpses were found. Last night, Miss Li took the dark horse and the golden retriever to eat at Yuxian Restaurant. ”
"How did you die?" Gu Xi frowned.
"I asked Baicheng to take someone to see it, one person had a short arrow into the eye, this was an arrow, and another neck was cut, and another one, he was stabbed in the chest, and his neck was cut."
Wen Cheng carefully placed a small arrow more than two inches long wrapped in a handkerchief on the table.
"This should be Miss Li's arrow, exactly the same."
"Who did she mess with?" Gu Xi looked at the small arrow and wondered.
"I can't think of it." Wen Cheng twisted his eyebrows, "The person who wants her life looks very anxious, and he also has some financial resources." Do you want someone to go to Fried Rice Lane and ask? ”
"Not yet." Gu Xi pondered for a moment and shook his head. Nine times out of ten, it was her old grudge.
Her old grievances, I'm afraid they are all grievances in the rivers and lakes, and we shouldn't meddle in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, unless she takes the initiative to ask for help, otherwise, I'm afraid it will be a disservice.
Besides, Miss Li is not a good stubble, let alone a person who only cares about face, if she can't cope with it and needs our help, she will definitely come to us.
Let Zhihe go to the yamen of the capital and order the yamen to conduct strict inspections, and let the yamen issue a notice to warn the lawbreakers not to act recklessly, otherwise the court will take action to clean up. ”
"Okay, I'll go talk to Zhihe." Wen Cheng stood up.
Gu Xi watched Wen Cheng go out, drank half a bowl of soup, and motioned to Ruyi, who was standing next to him:
"You go pick up a few dim sums, and then take the cucumbers that were rewarded in the palace yesterday, and go to fried rice lane, and say...... Needless to say, let's just ask Miss Li to try it. ”
……………………
Li Sangrou didn't get up early, and as soon as he washed up, the black horse came in with Ruyi with a red face.
Ruyi carried a yellow pear box, things are simple, and words are simpler.
Li Sangrou watched Ruyi go out of the second door, picked up the suitcase and looked around in circles, opened it, looked at the top few cucumbers, and sighed.
In winter, these cucumbers are very rare.
Try the word "first", it's really new.
However, early in the morning, he brought her so many cucumbers, what did he mean by that?
Did he know about yesterday? Shock her? Or is it a cucumber to put it in words: yesterday's events were a piece of cake for her?
But at this time, a pound of silver may not be exchanged for a pound of cucumbers, this dish is too expensive......
Forget it, let's eat cucumbers first.
Li Sangrou took a cucumber out, saw that it was clean, took a bite directly, and motioned to the black horse, "There are exactly four of them, one for each person." ”
Dachang came over and took one, the black horse and the golden retriever squeezed over together, and the three of them gathered around Li Sangrou, clicking and biting the cucumber.
The golden retriever said vaguely while eating cucumbers: "The first time I ate cucumbers in winter, this cucumber tastes the same as summer." Boss, what are we going to do? Gotta find a way to kill it back. ”
"Cucumber can still have two flavors? What I want is the rarity of this winter! I know that you don't understand, if you eat this cucumber in your mouth, that is, the cow eats the peony!
The Boss must have a way. Boss, what are we going to do? "The dark horse dislikes the golden retriever first, as usual.
"I've got to figure out a way. There are only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no thousand days to prevent a thief, there will always be a time when it is impossible to prevent it. Da Chang said in a muffled voice.
"There's nothing you can do at this time, you can only block it with soldiers and cover it with water. Next time, let's see if we can catch a live mouth.
Also, go out to dinner in the evening. ”
Li Sangrou threw the cucumber head into the suitcase.
"I'll go at night, too." Dachang even throws the cucumber head into his mouth.
"You stay at home. Dealing with killer assassins, you are not good at it, but it drags it down. Li Sangrou shook her head.
Da Chang muffled and didn't insist.
