Chapter 7: Meeting
"Boss, let's stay." The man in blue took out two strings of copper coins from his waist bag, put them on the wooden counter, and said lightly.
After hearing this, the purple-clothed man's eyes widened, and with an incredible expression, he squeezed his eyebrows at him, as if to say, "There are only two rooms, how can you divide them?" ”
The man in blue ignored him, looked at the boss with his eyes, and then said with joy on the boss's face, "Okay, three guest officers, your room is in the backyard, I'll take you there." ”
I can't help but say that the boss has already walked in front to lead the way, and the three of them are close behind.
Cao Hao beckoned to the shopkeeper and told him to deliver the best wine and food from the store to the room of the three heroes just now, the shopkeeper nodded happily, and Cao Hao paid enough money for the meal and left with his grandson overnight.
Along the way, the man in purple asked him in his boss's ear: "Boss, first of all, this is what Xiao Ruirui said he wanted to live, and now there are only two rooms that are not enough to live, so I want to have a separate room, boss, you can be wronged, and Xiao Ruirui have a room, okay?" ”
The two of them glanced at him with their residual eyes, which frightened the man in purple, and after the two of them withdrew their eyes, they were silent, silently followed behind the boss, and sighed lightly, they were used to his scoundrels.
The man in purple said again, "Anyway, you also think I'm verbose, if I live alone, your ears will be clean, so it's so happily decided." ”
As a result, they did what the man in purple wished, and as the man in purple said, their ears needed to be purified.
Zhong Mu saw them leave before he got up and returned to Zhong Zhiye's room, knocked on the door and just pushed the door in, Zhong Zhiye couldn't wait to ask him, "What's the situation outside?" ”
"Oh, it's someone in the lobby who is making trouble, an old man and his grandson were chased and killed by eight big men, but someone has already solved it." Zhong Mu replied.
Zhong Zhiye was quite interested after hearing this, and asked him, "Oh? Who leveled it? ”
"It's three handsome young men, looking like they're in their twenties. When I went out, I saw eight big men surrounding them, and the eight big men all clenched their scimitars tightly, and their eyes were full of murderous energy, but the three young men who were surrounded were not in a hurry, and they did not panic or fear at all. Soon, the leader of the eight big men provoked them, angering a man in purple, although the man in purple was handsome and charming like a woman, but this man was extremely fast, at that time he was a full distance from the leader, but his speed was as fast as the wind, and his sword was clean and neat, and he used his speed to contain the leader's neck with a sword. ”
Speaking of the man in purple, Zhong Mu's brows furrowed slightly, he didn't expect the seemingly feminine man to be so fast, so fast that he almost couldn't catch when he made a move, after a pause, he continued: "There are still two men who have never made a move, one is cold and handsome, dressed in blue, holding a black long sword; The other is the eldest in their mouths, dressed in yellow-white satin, with a dignified body, a dignified appearance, and also holding a sword. Their skills are extremely profound, and Mu'er can't detect their strength. ”
"Really? According to what you said, even if I have been in the rivers and lakes for many years, I have never heard of such a master in the martial arts? Zhong Zhiye pondered for a while, and then asked, "Do you know their names?" ”
"I learned from their conversation that the man in purple is called Yu Xiang, as for the surname, Mu Er doesn't know, the man in purple called the man in blue called Xiao Ruirui, and there is no way to know the name, and the man in yellow and white clothes, I only heard the man in purple call him the boss, martial arts should be the most powerful among the three, and that's all Mu Er knows." Zhong Mu said frankly, and it was difficult to hide the gloom between his eyebrows, "Dad, if these three people participate in Yijian Xing, I'm afraid Mu'er is not their opponent." ”
Zhong Mu was indeed worried, when observing them on the second floor, he inadvertently met the gaze of their boss, the man's eyes were clear and deep, the whole person exuded a cold aura, and nodded at him with a smile. Zhong Mu looked at him with a surprised face, knowing that he was exposed, he stabilized his mind, hoping that the man did not notice the panic in his eyes, and then Zhong Mu also nodded in response to him with a smile.
For the first time in so many years, Zhong Mu met a person who made him flustered at a glance, Zhong Mu's blazing eyes looked down, and saw the man with his hands on his chest, a posture of watching a play, and his handsome face was calm and indifferent, but a touch of imperceptible desolation flashed in the man's eyes, and Zhong Mu fell into deep thought after catching it.
What kind of person is that man? Zhong Mu really wanted to find out, and the more he thought about it, a pair of sword eyebrows were already tightly connected, and he couldn't stretch them out.
"I've never heard of these people in the rivers and lakes." Zhong Zhiye searched in his mind according to what Zhong Mu said, but to no avail, and when he saw Zhong Mu's worried face, he comforted him and said, "Okay! Mu'er, don't worry too much, since the other party is deliberately concealing their identity, there must be their reasons, as long as they are not our enemies, then there is nothing to be afraid of. You must be tired of traveling overnight these days, it's not too early, you go back to rest first, if you want to be a sword, let's talk about it when the time comes. ”
Zhong Zhiye felt that Mu'er was so tired because he was so tired, so he had no confidence in himself, and he panicked when he saw a few hidden characters appear, but he believed that Mu'er would regain his light after he rested, and he would return his high-spirited young man.
"Dad, then I'll leave first, and you can rest early." Zhong Mu got up and saluted and retreated.
After Zhong Mu left, Zhong Zhiye poured a cup of tea and drank it, thinking back to Zhong Mu's words, he really should add an extra layer of protection to avoid accidents.
Zhong Mu didn't go back to his room immediately, but went to the backyard of the inn, he wanted to try his luck.
He came to the corridor in the backyard, and was looking around leisurely, when he saw their eldest open the door from a room not far away, and vaguely saw an unusual smile on the corner of the man's mouth, as if waiting for Zhong Mu.
The man's figure is slender, his black and brown hair is neatly tied behind his ears, a few strands of hair hang down from his forehead, fluttering in the wind, his handsome face, and his eyebrows reveal a heroic spirit. He was dressed in a yellow-white garment with a silver-gray sash and two blue braids, a long yellow braid tassel pinned to his waist, and a pair of black boots on his feet.
His black eyes were deep and gloomy, like an ancient well with no bottom in sight, and a charming smile on his face, making it impossible to see through him.
I saw him pacing in a majestic manner, and he didn't take a few steps before he stood in front of Zhong Mu and stopped, the two looked at each other, his figure was slightly taller, Zhong Mu was only as high as his forehead, the man's cold voice sounded, and asked him, "You shouldn't have just passed by, right?" ”
