The capital is big and prosperous.

Thousands of miles away, where can compare to the smoke and rain of this city, and I don't know how many people in the world are eager to become famous in this city, or rich in the world, or the title of the gold list, and how many women in the world are gorgeous.

The capital is too big, and now, I'm afraid no one knows how big it is better than Su Qing, because he wants to find seventy-two people in this huge capital, and among these seventy-two people, there are not only men and women, old and young, but also different identities and statuses, and they are all hidden in the bottom of the market, incarnated as a ninth-rate, like a rat in the gutter, hiding deep, slipping fast, coming and going without a trace, like looking for a needle in a haystack.

These people are all Blackstone killers who only obey the orders of the "Wheel King", and they are also their confidence to deter all directions, except for the three most powerful killers, these seventy-two people are enough to run rampant.

They use knives, swords, hidden weapons, poisons, and murderous methods in an endless stream, and they are all kinds of people who cannot be prevented.

And what Su Qing has to do is to find them, kill them, or use them for him.

As for how to use it for him, he is not in a hurry, the solution is thought up by people, but how to think about it, he still has to see people before making a decision.

On this day, after Su Qing finished singing, he walked out of the tea pavilion, turned the shade of the pavilion, stepped through the cloud shadow, and came to the north bank of Qinhuai, Confucius Temple.

The ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, no matter which dynasty or generation, here are the wang clan gathered, businessmen gathered, between the buildings on both sides of the river, in the boat on the river, the literati gathered, and many people sang and sang, which attracted those dusty women one by one seemed to look through the autumn water, looked and looked, only looking forward to meeting a lover to redeem his body, marry home, look at each other, and love unswervingly.

People, you have to have thoughts.

Poor people want money, hungry people want food, cold people want clothes, these women who are mixed with the dust, are used to seeing false feelings, thin lovers, negative people, most of what they want is just a sincere heart.

The clouds and shadows rippled, and the boats came and went.

I don't know which girl on the riverside is playing the pipa, playing the huqin, and singing small songs, bright and moving.

The weather is getting warmer, and those girls are wearing less, some of them are bolder, next to a small green window, facing the breeze, and the gauzy clothes are raised, and the undulating seductive figures under the shirt can be faintly seen, and the scenery is beautiful.

These individuals, unlike those Qing people who do not sell their bodies, earn all the money of skin and flesh, men, like the new and hate the old, like the tender and hate the old, the days when they can make money, it is only five or six years old, the days are long, the red face is easy to get old, and when the people are old and yellow, the skin and flesh are loose, and they can only pour the urine basin for those little girls and wait for food.

So while the charm was there, he was desperately trying to make money, thinking about redeeming himself, starting a family, and having a child, otherwise, he would have to die in this life.

But when Su Qing came, it was as if the sun came out of the night, and the yellow dog flew into the sky, and the eyes from all directions all looked at him.

"Mr. Su, my girl is willing to prepare a little thin wine, and I also invite Mr. Su to come on the boat for a while, listen to the music and taste the tea, okay?"

Someone on the river was already shouting at him.

There are also a few five big and three rough men, their eyes meet each other, as if they want to do the act of captive people in broad daylight.

"What's so good about the song, my girl is willing to sing and dance lightly, spend a good night with Mr. Su, and enjoy a night of fish and water, how about it?"

Not to be outdone, some people shouted.

"Oops, it's not good, Mr. Su is going to run!"

"Catch Mr. Su!"

Another shout.

I saw Su Qing on the riverside covering his face with his sleeves, turned around and wanted to leave, and then heard the screams behind him, he ran away without saying a word, and ran out of the smoke I don't know how far, and when I couldn't hear the movement behind him, I breathed a sigh of relief, looking like I had palpitations.

But not yet standstill.

There was a sudden explosion of thunder overhead, booming and rolling, running over the sky, scared people a clever, the yellow dog next door seemed to be frightened, barking non-stop, the children in the distance were even more wow wow crying, chickens flying and dogs jumping.

There was a thunderbolt on a sunny day.

The whole heaven and earth immediately darkened, and the clouds became thicker, and then thickened, and then blackened, and the black clouds rolled, but the sky became strangely yellow and shiny, and the south wind rolled up on the flat ground.

"This thief, it's going to rain again!"

Su Qing has lived here for so long, but he understands this eyesight to judge the wind and rain, now that it is summer, it is not surprising that Nanjing is windy and rainy, and before he has time to take a few breaths, he is busy picking up his starting point and avoiding under a pavilion in the distance.

The front foot stepped in, and the raindrops the size of the back foot beans had fallen one by one, splashing a circle of smoke and dust, from sparse to dense, and the sky was full of lightning and thunder, shaking the world.

Looking at the dark and oppressive sky, nine times out of ten it was a shower.

The crowd on the banks of the Qinhuai River dispersed as birds and beasts, one by one, like ants washed by the anthill by the water, hiding in Tibet in a panic, holding their heads and running away.

Xu is this pavilion is secluded, he is the only one here, pouring rain, dusky as mud, brushes straight down, the air is filled with a trace of earthy smell, the vision in the eyes is cut off by the rain curtain, it is difficult to distinguish the four directions.

The hearts of those who are only drenched are cold and gloomy.

But he said that he was waiting for the rain to stop.

A few people rushed out of the rain curtain.

Good guy, Su Qing glanced at it casually, and saw that few of them were human, and he couldn't help frowning.

The leader was a gray-clothed man with a long purple face, with thin and long narrow eyebrows, gloomy eyes, a scar on the right side of his cheek, and a petite woman standing beside him.

The man looked at him fiercely, but when he saw his face clearly, his eyes changed inexplicably for some reason, and he turned his head again.

In addition to these two, they also brought six children, six mutilated, broken hands and feet, not only broken hands and feet, but also their faces, either feeling burned, or burned, or missing noses, missing ears, and the whole face melted, one uglier and more terrifying than the other. The last one simply had both legs gone, lying on a small wheeled cart, his hands were laboriously rowing, grinding bloody, the rain was pouring down, his mouth was "ahhhh

They had a long chain on their hands and on their bodies, and the other end was in the man's hand.

At a glance, Su Qing really regretted coming to the "Confucius Temple" in his heart, in the past, he only heard that there were many craftsmen who traveled from south to north here, playing tricks, but he didn't expect that some people's tricks were actually these children, and he regretted it very much.

The man and the woman were together, and the six children were shivering together, and the rain was pouring down on them.

"Alas, God is really perfect!"

Su Qing sighed.

He suddenly felt like he had to do something.

Because a child with a big head and a small body, his facial features are squeezed together, and the lips and teeth are turned out in front of him, as if he has been drenched in oil, and the people who see him are shocked, he is wearing a rag shirt that does not fit, holding a pottery bowl and coming up, shouting "ah" in his mouth, and pointing to the pottery bowl.

Around the neck, there is a leather ring.

Su Qing's eyes seemed to be a little sour.

The man changed color slightly, and dragged a chain in his right hand, and the child who had come to his feet immediately screamed and rolled to the ground, and the stubble at the base of his tongue was clearly cut off by a sharp weapon in his open mouth.

Su Qing said lightly: "I didn't say I wouldn't give him the silver he wanted, why do you bother?" ”

He turned his head to look at the man, and then at the woman.

"Huh, what? Shall I take the money you give? The man sneered.

"We should have seen it in Zhang's Mansion, then I'll just order it!"

Su Qing tilted his head, up and down his body, and with his movements, there was a crackling sound like fried beans.

"Thief and thief, among the other seventy, which one do you know?"

He put his hands in his sleeves, and his tone was casual, but what he said made the two of them change their faces.

The man shouted, "Xi Kui, what do you want to do?" ”

"Forget it, let's talk about it!"

Su Qingyi's hands had withdrawn from his sleeves, his left hand was buckled to the man's neck with tiger claws, and his right hand was also buckled to the woman's thin neck with eagle claws.

The strength surged, with a sharp sound, and Su Qing's watery eyes seemed to turn into two fluttering ghost fires, flickering and extinguishing.

Unexpectedly, Su Qing suddenly became difficult, and he let out a hoarse roar, and his sleeves shook.

"Whoosh!"

A black shadow came straight to Su Qing's façade, it was actually two darts, and the woman's palm touched from the back of her waist, and she felt out two swarthy iron pills, which also hit Su Qing's façade.

"Huh!"

Su Qing squeezed out a sneer in his throat, the attack of his right hand remained unchanged, and with a flick of his wrist, the two iron pills had been firmly inserted into his hand, and his left hand raised his fingers to pluck the flick, and the dart had been submerged into the brown pavilion pillar on the side.

At this moment, the two of them had already arrived with the hidden weapon, one left and one right, attacking Su Qing, one holding a short dagger and the other holding a short knife, both of which were picking tendons and cutting wrists.

Su Qing's feet did not stop, with a wave of his right hand, the two iron pills turned into two black lights, flew back upside down, and at the same time deceived himself, only in the shadow of the knife light dagger, "bang bang" twice, the knife was broken, the dagger was destroyed, he had passed between the two, the two screamed miserably, the figure rose from the ground, and was actually lifted by Su Qing's throat, and there were several bloody holes in the right arm, which drooped weakly, and the weapons fell to the ground respectively.

The children on the ground were panicked and trembling, and Su Qing felt unprovoked in his heart, and the strength of his hands increased.

"You want to betray Blackstone?"

The man is struggling, and the woman is already rolling her eyes.

Su Qing said calmly: "The remaining killers in the capital, you will find them out for me one by one!" ”

He let go of his hand, and the two of them immediately fell to their knees, coughing incessantly.

"We don't know much—ahem—"

Su Qing said condescendingly: "How much do you know, find out how much!" ”

As he spoke, his hands pressed to their shoulders.

"Don't move!"

The two of them trembled, and a burst of weakness came.

"This is a kind of strength hidden in flesh and blood, which can block people's qi and blood, hurt people's veins, and can kill people in seven days, in the world, there is no other way to solve it except me!"

"I live in Xuande Lane, don't keep me waiting!"

The showers came and went very quickly, but after two or three teas, the clouds had already closed and the sun had risen, Su Qing raised his eyes and glanced around, left a sentence and turned around and walked out of the pavilion.

By the way, he threw a silver ingot into the child's clay bowl.

"Take them to something good!"

Listening to the words, looking at Su Qing's distant back, the man suddenly shuddered, his crotch was wet, and he actually peed out.

……

Walking silently all the way to Xuande Lane, Su Qing was still very depressed in his heart, and he was in a trance, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Mr. Sue!"

Seeing that he was about to get home, he suddenly saw a man sitting on the stone steps with a fish basket at the door, waiting for him.

Seeing Su Qing come back, he smiled innocently. "Sir, I know that you love crabs, so I caught you early today!"

Seeing that he was soaking wet, it was estimated that he had come in the heavy rain, and Su Qing opened the door.

"Come in and have a cup of tea!"

The man hurriedly said: "Don't bother, I have it!" ”

He untied the gourd from his waist, which was filled with wine, and took a big sip.

Su Qing smiled: "Lao Xu, what good thing have you encountered?" Are you willing to drink? ”

This Lao Xu is Yinling's father, who was even happier when Su Qing broke his heart, wiped the rain, and said: "Hehe, don't hide it, sir, my daughter was accepted as an apprentice by a craftsman, and she has made a lot of money by tricks these days, which she bought for me!" ”

Su Qing nodded.

"That's a good thing."

He smiled again when he saw the man spitting and spitting, wanting to speak and stopping. "What? Are you trying to say that this is the last time I'll be given fish? ”

"Sir, you are so smart, you can't hide anything from you, isn't this a blessing from you for many days, come and let me know!" Lao Xu grinned, a little embarrassed.

Su Qing said with a smile: "What's this, it's normal for people to go to high places, with silver, you always have to think about changing your way of living, not to mention that it's not a thing to always float on water!" ”

Lao Xu nodded hurriedly. "You're right, I just got a shop yesterday, and I cleaned up for most of the day, just in the west of the city, her mother left some skills in making cakes before leaving, thinking that she couldn't spoil it, so she planned to open a cake shop, you want to eat, come over at any time, don't need money!"

After informing him, the man exchanged a few words and left happily.

Looking at the man's back, Su Qing pushed the door into the house.

But when he entered the room, he looked awe-inspiring.

I saw a person sitting in the open door of the main hall.

Lei Bin.

He was casually eating the snacks on the table and drinking tea, and he didn't know where to make a bowl of noodles, and he couldn't stop eating.

"Why are you coming back so slowly?"

Su Qing asked quietly, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Lei Bin wiped his mouth and said: "No, didn't Lian Lian accept an apprentice, the Wheel King went to pick her up, I want everyone to get to know her, I guess it's going to be soon!" ”

"Wait!"

Su Qing said: "Okay! ”

waited until it was getting dark, only to see two figures outside the door sweeping in one after the other.

Lian Lian's face was stiff, and his joy and anger were invisible, and the King of the Wheels was wearing a cloak and holding a little girl with a discolored face in his hand.

It's the silver bell.

As if he saw Su Qing sitting in the room, Yinling's eyes lit up slightly, and then quickly disappeared, and reluctantly followed the Wheel King into the house.

"Sit down!"

The king of the wheel let go.

Yinling immediately hid behind the rope and poked his head out to peek at a few people.

"Lian Lian, your apprentice is this little girl?"

Lei Bin looked at it with interest.

The Wheel King said, "Your name is Silver Bell?" ”

Yinling cautiously asked, "Who are you?" ”

The Wheel King said in a deep voice: "Black Stone! Your master is also a person from Heishi, and you will be the same in the future, your master's name is Lian Lian, his name is Xikui, and his name is Lei Bin! ”

"Come on, have a snack!"

Su Qing smiled gently and handed over the snack.

Yinling stared, as if she had just recognized Su Qing.

"You're the gentleman who sings in the tea pavilion?"

"Sit down!"

Even the rope is also said.

Yinling immediately cringed and sat on the chair, then obediently picked up a piece of snack and took a small bite.

"The spies came with the news that all the people who went to intercept and kill Drizzle died, and the clues of Drizzle were inexplicably broken, I'm afraid it was out of the customs, and in addition, the body of Rama in her hand was fake!"

"Fake?"

"Huh?"

The expressions of the people present changed.

"I know her, she is arrogant by nature, once the body is in hand, she will never hand it over easily, and she will definitely carry it with her, but she did take the body away that night, and she was transferred halfway, and we have also checked the place where she rests, and the burden has never changed, I guess, the body is still in the capital, maybe it fell into someone's hands!"

"Since she won't give it away, then someone should take it away, with her strength, you say, who can take the body from her hands?"

Su Qing, who listened to the words of the Wheel King, was greatly surprised, this scheming eunuch is really not an ordinary person, he can think of so many things with such a little thing.

"Don't look at me, I'll go home early that night and sleep with my wife in my arms!"

Lei Bin saw the Wheel King looking at him, and unhurriedly cleared up the relationship.

"Isn't there another monk?"

Su Qing said lightly.

The Wheel King groaned for a moment.

"The news came, the drizzle killed the monk, and the body was not in his hands!" He looked at Su Qing again, and then there was the color drama master with a rope. "Don't worry, half of the body, it's difficult to accomplish it, wait until you find the other half of the body and then make a decision!"

"Drizzle's replacement hasn't been found yet, even the rope, and the assassination mission in the future will be carried out by your master and apprentice!"

Lian Lian said: "Yes! ”

Su Qing sighed in his heart when he heard this, before the time came, he didn't say anything, but just gave Yinling another snack.

"Thank you, sir!"

The little girl winked at him and smiled.

"This snack is delicious, sir, can I go to the pavilion and listen to music in the future?"

Su Qing said softly:

"Good!"

The Wheel King didn't stay long, got up and walked out, and a blackstone killer came in masked and put down a few kill orders.

"Silver Bell, let's go!"

Lian Lian got up and put away the killing order, greeted the silver bell, and the master and apprentice also left one after the other.

"Alright, I'm going too!"

Lei Bin followed.

The room was silent again.

Su Qing looked at the night outside, and after a long time, his mouth said slowly in a calm tone: "Or, destroy the black stone?" ”

After a while, his eyes froze, and he said in a deep voice:

"Swear to destroy the Blackstone!"

Turned around and turned off the lights.

The days are also business as usual.

It wasn't until the evening of the third day that a lame child knocked on Su Qing's door.
