Chapter 13: The Rusty Knife

"Tsk, Dongdu, Langya Gongzi, it's really interesting, interesting." Xiao Bai on the city gate stood up slowly, and jumped up from the top of the corner tower of the city gate dozens of zhang high, as if Dapeng spread his wings and disappeared into the night. And the moment Xiao Bai disappeared, a voice sounded, this voice seemed a little coquettish, and the person came with wavy curls, although it was dark night, the pair of blue eyes looked a little weird. The red eyeliner drawn on the corners of her eyes makes her more charming and charming, a light red dress seems to be a little tight, showing her fiery delicate body to the fullest, the sound of jingling bells sounds, and there is a string of silver bells on her ankles and ankles, but the beautiful feet have never worn shoes. Her face was wearing a purple veil, but the extent of this woman's calamity had been vividly displayed. It's a pity that Xiao Bai didn't see it, if he did, he might want to take off this woman's light veil and see how beautiful her face was, not only Xiao Bai, I'm afraid everyone who saw her thought so, but the person who could remove her veil was afraid that it would be difficult to appear. The place where she fell was still the top of the willow tree by the river, and her white feet stood on a branch as thin as filament, and there was no slight trembling, so it is conceivable that this woman's light skills are not weak.

"Welcome to the Holy Maiden." The voice was extremely loud, and the four purple delicate figures paced in the air, like flying immortals outside the sky, purple raccoon veils, wearing light veils, covering their faces, but the beauty of these four women was definitely not bad, and the four of them carried a sedan chair with a light gauze curtain, and the figure fell on the grass with a light posture, and the woman on the top of the tree jumped in the air, as if dancing, spinning out, the posture was wet, pouring all beings, and slowly fell into the sedan chair, and the four figures, as when they came, slowly walked towards the eastern capital. When the prince of Langya came to the Eastern Capital, he would definitely not attract so many people, there must be something in the Eastern Capital that attracted these people, but Xiao Bai didn't know, because he never seemed to care about the things above the rivers and lakes. Langya Gongzi entered the Eastern Capital, maybe he was invited, but now it seems that Langya Gongzi came with a purpose, obviously these people's purposes are the same, but what is the purpose, there is still no information in the Eastern Capital.

The streets of the Eastern Capital are extremely prosperous, and people come and go extremely lively, especially at this time, there is only one thing that is being talked about after tea and dinner in the Eastern Capital. That is the happy event of Xuantian Houfu and Jingwangfu, everyone is saying, which of these two marriages will be the most grand, everyone will think that it is Xuantian Houfu. After all, it was a gift from the saint to marry, but Xiao Bai's reputation in the Eastern Capital, even a three-year-old child knew that Xiao Bai was a waste who could sleep for ten hours a day. The marriage of the saint has been rejected three times, and before the day of marriage, everyone will think that the marriage of the Xuantian Houfu may be variable, and even faintly expect this kind of thing to happen, if even the Oiran of the Flower House refuses to give the marriage this time, I am afraid that the face of the royal family will no longer exist. But some people don't care about these things, for example, this person sitting on the corner of the street, his long hair is scattered, it looks a little messy, it seems that he has no time to comb his long hair, he looks rough and ragged in a gray long coat, and he sits on a clearing on the corner of the street, and he sits on the ground so calmly. People came and went thought he was a beggar, and although his clothes were a little ragged, his clothes were at least not as tattered as those of a beggar. Beneath his messy hair, those eyes were full of depth, but no one would pay attention to his eyes, and he held a knife in his arms, more than three feet long, a palm's width and unsheathed. Anyone who saw this knife would think that it was a little redundant to give it a scabbard, because the rust on this knife was all over the blade, and he sat there cross-legged, and the knife lay horizontally on his lap, and sat quietly.

"Have you eaten?" A soft voice sounded, although it was early autumn, but the sun was strong today, but he sat there and let the sun shine. The wheelchair stopped in front of him, a maid holding a white umbrella at her side, shielding her from the scorching sun, and a little guy in a light blue coarse coat, behind her, pushing the wheelchair, but the wheelchair stopped in front of the man. He slowly raised his head and saw her, Xiao Lan, whose face was a little pale, reflected in his deep eyes. He shook his head in a ghostly way, he really hadn't eaten, let alone lunch, he hadn't even eaten breakfast, for a person like him, even if he was hungry for a few days, he wouldn't feel hungry.

"Buy him a bowl of noodles." Xiao Lan whispered to the little guy behind her, and the little guy quickly walked to a noodle stall on the side of the street, bought a bowl of noodles, and never procrastinated, obviously because of the style and rigorous attitude of the Houmen Mansion. Soon the little maid brought the bowl of noodles to this person, he never took the bowl of noodles, and Xiao Lan looked at him, there was a little surprise in her eyes, in her imagination, this person should eat the bowl of noodles quickly, but at this time, that person just looked at the bowl of noodles with deep eyes, and his body did not move at all. His left hand rested casually on his knee, but his right hand gripped the rusty hilt as if it wouldn't let go.

"Third sister." There was a slight chill in the voice, dressed in white, very white, on top of the white crown, there was a white six-petal plum blossom, and a white hosta. And the two white hairbands that floated down from the crown hung between the sideburns on both sides, and the handsome demeanor of the body was not lost to anyone at all, Xiao Bai at this time, standing in the street five zhang away from Xiao Lan, like an immortal who walked down from the painting, if it were not for the name of waste, Xiao Bai would definitely have a very loud reputation in this eastern capital, perhaps even louder than now. Xiao Lan was also stunned when she saw Xiao Bai at this time, watching Xiao Bai walk slowly, it seemed that the surrounding streets had become a clear world, as if a gust of wind was blowing between heaven and earth, which was so comforting.

"Second brother, are you still the second brother?" Xiao Lan rubbed her eyes, thinking that she had seen something wrong, white clothes were like snow, fluttering in the dust, even if she knew that Xiao Bai was a waste, no one would say that he was a waste at this time.

"What? You don't recognize you when you change your clothes? Xiao Bai said with a slow smile.

"Why did you get out?" Xiao Lan said in surprise, because Xiao Bai never comes out in broad daylight, not even at night, because he can only sleep, maybe for Xiao Bai, sleeping is the biggest thing in the world. Even if the whole sky falls, it will not be more important than his sleep, so he is Xiao Bai, and he is the most famous waste in the Eastern Capital.

"Recently, many people have come in the eastern capital, and if there is nothing important to do after the fish and dragons are mixed, don't go out of the house." Xiao Bai looked at the person sitting cross-legged on the ground, there was a little cold light in his eyes, which shot straight out, and those deep eyes stared at Xiao Bai's gaze, trembling in fear, and his pupils contracted for a moment, as if he had seen a very dangerous beast.

"It's not very far from the gate, so there won't be danger." Xiao Lan said involuntarily, if it weren't for Xiao Bai's marriage, Xiao Lan would not have left the house, after all, Xiao Lan rarely went out of the house.

"He's not a beggar, you don't have to give him alms." Xiao Bai said coldly.

"I just don't think he has eaten." Xiao Lan knew, because although this person looked a little like a beggar, he would definitely not be a beggar, Xiao Lan could feel it.

"Well, I'm not blaming you, it's just that not everyone needs mercy, especially the one with the knife." Xiao Bai said.

"Knives?" Xiao Lan glanced at the knife on the man's lap, the rusty knife, it was hard to imagine that such a knife would be called a knife, such a knife, I am afraid that there would not even be a trace of edge.

"Let's go back first." Xiao Bai said, Xiao Lan looked at Xiao Bai's strange appearance today, she could only obey Xiao Bai's orders, the little guy behind her pushed Xiao Lan to slowly leave here, Xiao Lan turned her head to look at Xiao Bai from time to time, today's Xiao Bai's momentum is different from usual, as if she is a person who stands up to the sky.

"Eat it, it's not poisonous." Xiao Bai looked at him and said.

"Man has only one life." His voice is also very profound, as if he has gone through many vicissitudes, and his deep eyes are extremely firm, as if he will not eat this bowl of noodles whether it is poisonous or not. As he said, man has only one life, but there are many, many choices in life, and these choices are likely to cost him his life, so he can't choose the wrong one, and the best way is not to choose. So even if this bowl of noodles is poisonous or not, he won't eat it.

"Yes, people only have one life, so you should be careful, but this is not the place where you people should come, this is the Eastern Capital." In Xiao Bai's eyes, a cold light appeared, like a sharp sword qi, which seemed to be able to shoot through his eyes, and he didn't dare to look directly into Xiao Bai's eyes. This kind of look, he had never seen in others, his hand holding the hilt of the knife trembled, and a chill flashed in his heart, as if a voice told him in his mind that the boy in front of him was a very dangerous person.

"Jianghu people, you can go anywhere, why can't you come?" The man asked in surprise, but his eyes didn't dare to look directly at Xiao Bai, although others couldn't see it, but he knew that Xiao Bai's eyes were definitely so terrifying when he was staring at himself.

"This is the imperial capital, the place where the rivers and lakes should be most feared." Xiao Bai said very seriously, the imperial capital is the imperial capital, and the affairs of the rivers and lakes must not affect the imperial capital, and must not affect the royal family, otherwise he doesn't care about killing people, Biluo Valley is a place to kill people.

"I won't kill people from the Eastern Capital, I will only kill people from Jianghu." He said solemnly.

"Now I understand why you have been able to live for so long, you should eat this bowl of noodles, because I want to kill people, and I don't need to poison them." Xiao Bai said proudly, the momentum displayed on his body seemed to be the top person in the world, and then he walked slowly. Xiao Bai is here to warn people, he has already warned, then he can go, this person is very close to the Hou Mansion, it doesn't matter what purpose such a person comes with, but as long as he sets off a life in the Eastern Capital, no matter what sect, what son, what master, he will never let a person out of the Eastern Capital. The Eastern Capital is the world of the Xiao family, they can do whatever they want in the rivers and lakes, but they are absolutely not good in the Eastern Capital, even if they are the palace masters of Shenyun Palace and the mountain masters of Huangquan Mountain in the Eastern Capital, they must keep their heads down and be people.

"Second brother, you don't seem to want me to talk to that person?" Xiao Lan's eyes contained countless whys, as if she wanted to see Xiao Bai through, since the Shangqing Festival, Xiao Bai has become more and more mysterious and unclear.

"Do you know who that person is?" Xiao Bai looked at Xiao Lan and said coldly.

"Who is it?" Xiao Lan asked curiously.

"Rusty knives are cold." Xiao Bai said.

"Haven't heard of it?" In the rivers and lakes, it seems that she has never heard of such characters, Xiao Lan also pays attention to the rivers and lakes, those famous characters in the world, she has also heard of one or two, such as Langya Gongzi, everyone has their own yearning for a river and lake in their hearts. Xiao Bai knew that Xiao Lan had this river and lake in her heart, so she would paint such a picture, and the painting was her rivers and lakes, the most beautiful rivers and lakes in her heart. But that is just the beauty in his heart, Xiao Bai has never had illusions about the rivers and lakes, because he knows what the rivers and lakes are.

"Naturally, you haven't heard of it, because because of his name, only one kind of person cares." Xiao Bai said with a light sigh.

"Who?" Xiao Lan was still curious.

"If you want to kill someone, if you don't want to kill yourself, then you can ask him to do it, as long as the money is enough, he will kill anyone, do you think it's worth buying him that bowl of noodles?" Xiao Bai looked at her and said very seriously, he wanted Xiao Lan to understand that he should not have illusions about the rivers and lakes, the rivers and lakes are not as beautiful as they have heard, and the rivers and lakes also have many dark problems that he has to face.

"So he doesn't eat that bowl of noodles?" Xiao Lan seemed to understand something.

"That's right, because he thinks you've poisoned that bowl of noodles, so he won't eat it." Xiao Bai said.

"How could Miss be poisoned? This person is so rude that he actually thinks of Miss like this. The maid beside Xiao Lan said angrily, the reason why the beggar didn't eat the bowl of noodles was that he thought that their young lady had poisoned the noodles. How can there be such a person in the world, to be precise, how can there be such a person in the world, Yahuan never thought that people's hearts would be so dark, as if everyone would harm him. It's just that Xiao Bai doesn't think it's strange, because there are so many different characters in the rivers and lakes, especially people like him, if you want to live, it's always right to be careful.

"If you have killed many people, and many people want to kill you to get revenge, then you will be as careful as he is." Xiao Bai said calmly, and then left, leaving Xiao Lan and the little maid ring, some of them in the courtyard with heavy thoughts.
