Chapter 119: Before the Duel
South China Sea, Baiyun City.
Ximen Jian, who was dressed in white, looked at a blue-robed man in front of him and said, "Brother! ”
The green-robed man nodded and said loudly: "September 9th, ready?" ”
Ximen Jian nodded: "Decisive battle at the top of the purple gold!" ”
The green-robed man nodded and said, "It's a battle!" It's up to you this time! ”
......
In a small coastal town in the south, a man with a rough face, wearing a Northwest robe, a round hat, and a thick-backed knife walked into a wine shop.
The man's rough voice shouted: "Xiao Er, bring me a pound of wine and two pounds of sauce beef!" ”
Xiao Er smiled with a smile on his face and said, "Okay, master!" ”
The man laughed, threw a broken silver to Xiao Er, and said with a smile: "Master rewards you!" ”
Xiao Er then broke the silver, the smile on his face was even better, and there was a flattering expression in the eyes of the man.
Of course, in secret, this little second is very grateful to the White Cloud City Lord and the Young Master of the Blue Dragon Society.
If it weren't for their decisive battle, where would this Nanhai town attract such a generous high roller!
As soon as this man entered the wine shop, Xiao Er set his sights, just how this man dressed, he must be a big man in the north, such a person is well served, but he is more generous than which southern gentlemen!
The business of the liquor store is very good, and more than a dozen tables are full of people.
Judging from the clothing of these people, these people are all from the rivers and lakes, and they always have their hands in front of them.
Originally, there was only one person at the man's table, and two brothers came in the back who didn't find a seat.
The man invited the two of them to come to his table very heroically.
These two are thin and tall, similar in appearance, they are a pair of brothers, both of them are from the rivers and lakes, and they each carry a soft whip on their waists.
The three of them drank some wine, and soon they became familiar with each other on the table, calling each other brothers, chatting, pointing out the country, and the bulls that could be bragged on the wine table, each of them blowing hard!
When the two of them were drunk and fell on the table, the man muttered: "Brother Gao, brother Gao, this is not good?" How much wine is this? ”
That's right, this northwest man is Qi Huan.
He didn't come to the South China Sea this time to fight a duel, but to investigate the situation.
These days, these small towns in the South China Sea are full of people from all over the country.
Qi Huan travels every day in places where there are many people in the rivers and lakes, such as wine shops, downtown towns, and green buildings, to inquire about the gossip.
No one would have imagined that the famous and one of the protagonists of this duel, Gongzi Yu, would be this big man dressed as a Northwest swordsman!
These days, Qi Huan has really heard a lot of gossip.
It turned out that Qi Huan also thought that if it was really aimed at Gongzi Yu, then there might be a problem with the location of this decisive battle.
Later, under the explanation of a person who claimed to be a native of the South China Sea, Qi Huan learned that the sword of the White Cloud City Lord never looked at the time and place.
In the past, when the White Cloud City Lord fought with people, he always let others choose the time and place.
Therefore, there is a high probability that this duel will still be the time and place chosen by the opponent of the White Cloud City Lord, Gongzi Yu.
It means that this time and place were all initiated by the people behind the impostor war.
There was probably something strange about the time and place.
But later, Qi Huan learned from others that the Purple Mountain Highlands in the South China Sea were indeed a good place for dueling.
And there are sandy beaches two miles away from the mountain, which is enough for people to watch, which is convenient for the public!
Qi Huan has also gone to see the terrain in person, and it is really a good place to go.
Could it be that the mastermind behind the scenes is so kind, just trying to plan a sensational duel?
These doubts were buried in Qi Huan's heart, and there was no answer for a while.
The only thing that makes Qi Huan happy is that Gongzi Yu is a masked figure after all.
No one has seen Gongziyu's true face, and Qi Huan has always been able to get out calmly.
I know that there is a problem with the duel, but I don't know where the problem is, Qi Huan doesn't participate!
At night, outside Baiyun City, a man wearing a green dragon mask threw a feather arrow at the city wall, carrying a letter in the name of Gongzi Yu.
In Baiyun City, Ximen Jian, dressed in white, held the feather arrows and letters in his hand.
The so-called feather arrow is nothing more than a piece of green bamboo, and the paper used for the letter is also made of local material - a large plantain leaf.
Both of these are things that can be found everywhere in the South China Sea.
Ximen Jian nodded, this person was really careful and did not leave any clues that could trace his identity.
Leaving a name cannot prove identity, and the only thing that can prove that this letter was left by Gongzi Yu is the text on the banana leaf.
These words are all carved by sword qi, and the edge of this sword qi is the guarantee to prove identity.
When Ximen Jian saw the words, he also had admiration in his eyes: "The sword qi is sharp!" It's really Gongzi Yu! ”
Seeing the handwriting, every stroke is the momentum of Jin Ge Iron Horse!
Ximen Jian frowned, and secretly said Could it be that Gongzi Yu was born in the army and was a member of the imperial court?
In an inn in the small town of Nanhai, Qi Huan took off his night clothes and changed into a new appearance of a northwest man.
The letter just now was naturally dropped by Qi Huan, and in the letter, Qi Huan explained that someone had launched this duel in his own name.
This duel is driven by the mastermind behind the scenes, not his own intention, the mastermind behind the scenes plans a series of things, it must have another purpose, and the duel must have something strange.
I won't go to the appointment and get involved in this whirlpool.
Qi Huan's purpose in writing this letter was to inform Ximen Jian of the reason for this incident, and when the time came, Ximen Jian could also clarify Gongzi Yu.
At the same time, in Qi Huan's mind, the Ximen Sword, the lord of Baiyun City, was also unwilling to be used, and after he saw this letter, he would definitely be suspicious of it.
When the time comes, there is really no one to make the appointment, and Ximen Jian must know that this letter is true.
In order to avoid being used by others, Ximen Jian must clarify this matter to the rivers and lakes.
Inform Ximen Jian of the news in advance, and maybe he can sell him a favor when the time comes.
Time passed day by day, and the rivers and lakes were calm, but more and more people from the rivers and lakes gathered in the South China Sea, and these were all here to watch the duel.
In Qi Huan's mind, now that Ximen Jian has received the letter, maybe he is still suspicious of this and will send someone to investigate.
But on the day of the decisive battle, when no one was present, the letter could clarify a lot.
At least if an accident does happen, the mastermind behind it has achieved some purpose through this incident.
When the time comes, Gongzi Yu and Ximen Jian can take themselves out.
Qi Huan can also harvest the friendship of the Ximen clan in the South China Sea.
Seeing that there are more and more people in the South China Sea, and the business of these merchants is getting better and better, Qi Huan is wondering if these merchants in the South China Sea are the ones behind the scenes.
Through this incident, at present, Qi Huan has not found anyone to benefit, but the merchants in the South China Sea have made a lot of money.
Of course, it's a joke after all!
