Chapter 117: A Strange Incident
Solved Wan'er's personal feud, the next time is Luxi's travels, but when it comes to travel, Luxi actually doesn't have any specific direction, so he simply follows the official road and goes to the nearby big city to see if there is anything new.
In ancient times, ordinary people would not leave the place where they lived, and limited by the lack of transportation, many people who wanted to travel far away did not have the conditions to realize their ideals.
This has led to the blockage of information, and it is said that reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles is because no one can really know the affairs of the world without leaving home, even if the royal family has the largest intelligence agency in the country, the jurisdiction of their own land is only at the county level, and most of the farmers below are still managed by the landlords, which is why the power of the family is so strong, because half of them are outside the management system of the dynasty.
But in this world with martial arts internal strength, there is no need for transportation, and a person with internal breath will not run much slower than ordinary horses, so the speed of information circulation has been greatly strengthened, which is why the tavern where Jianghu people gather in martial arts novels is the best place to inquire about the world's major affairs, because Jianghu people themselves are the best intelligence dealers in this world.
Luxi is different from the "XX son" in the ordinary rivers and lakes, those people are usually just wealthy families, can afford to read, and raise a little book, in essence, they are still the same as these gangs in the rivers and lakes, the real sons of the family, although they practice martial arts, they will put their ambitions on scientific research, and that is where the smartest people in this world gather.
Although Luxi was born in Jiangmen, and worshiped the Taoist pure yang lineage, there is not much Confucian temperament, but also free demeanor, as soon as he entered this restaurant, it attracted the attention of many people, and the shopkeeper also saw through Luxi's clothing that Luxi's family background was extraordinary, and hurriedly came up to receive it.
"What is the guest officer?" The shopkeeper put a smile on his face.
"Your specialty dish here, have two meat and two vegetables, and add a lighter soup." Wan'er said for Lucy.
"Does the guest need a drink?" The shopkeeper glanced at the horizontal knife on Luxi's back waist and the sword in Wan'er's hand, but it is rare for this Jianghu person to eat and not want to drink.
"No need." Lucy said lightly that he didn't feel much about the drinks in this world, except for those who were strong in martial arts, who could brew some drinks with a peculiar taste with the help of internal forces, the drinks brewed by ordinary stores were not at all comparable to the goods sold in supermarkets after the popularization of industrial production.
"Hahaha, boy, come out and walk the rivers and lakes, you can't drink this wine." A big man with a beard on his face laughed heroically, he was also one of the people who paid attention to Lucy and Wan'er in the tavern, and now he made mockery, just to test Lucy's details.
"When did such a doll come out of this Jianghu?" This is his mind, although people who can walk on the rivers and lakes have their own abilities, but this big man is very confident in himself, he doesn't feel that he needs to take care of such a young son.
"It's not a tasty wine, so don't drink it." Lucy's merciless words embarrassed the shopkeeper who had not yet left, but he didn't know martial arts, and he didn't dare to refute Lucy's belittling, so he had to act as if he hadn't heard it, and quickly walked to the back kitchen.
The man also looked down at the wine jar in his hand, although this restaurant is open in a prosperous city, it is not a high-end place, and this wine is naturally the most common type, which is indeed not very good.
"I don't think I'm still a rich boy." The big man lost his interest, he felt that such a picky person was either very powerful or very straw, and Lucy was obviously not very powerful in his eyes.
A small episode can't affect Lucy's mood, he can't read minds, naturally he doesn't know that the big man despises him, and even if he knows, he probably won't care about this thing, life is in the world, it's impossible to be liked by everyone, if everyone who looks at him unhappy Lucy has to take care of it, then he won't be exhausted to death?
After watching the excitement, the other customers stopped paying attention to the situation here and started chatting on their own.
Since this place is not far from Taihang Mountain, the news of the destruction of the Wanjia Mountain Villa has also come over, but the martial arts of the three owners are really not famous, so the drinkers here are just talking about it, and they don't care too much about this little thing, there are too many things on the rivers and lakes where you kill me and I kill you, and it is nothing new.
"Did you hear that? Four people died on this Changbai Mountain. One of them said mysteriously.
"Isn't it normal for a few people to die on this mountain?" Although they knew that things were not that simple, everyone was happy to cooperate with this person who obviously knew something.
"You don't know, these four people are not ordinary people, they are all first-class masters in the rivers and lakes!" The man raised his voice, causing everyone in the tavern to gasp violently.
can be called a first-class master, naturally it will not be a small fish and shrimp, few of the leaders of ordinary small and medium-sized gangs can be called first-class masters, such a character dies four at a time, it is indeed a big deal.
"Could it be that the senior on Changbai Mountain did it?" Someone asked cautiously.
There are also Jianghu sects on Changbai Mountain, and this sect is still very status, because they have an innate grandmaster, and no one will ignore such a sect with an innate grandmaster.
"The Changbai Immortal didn't make a move, in fact, the first person to find out that these four first-class masters died on Changbai Mountain was this Changbai Immortal." The man shook his head.
But there are also people who don't believe this man's words.
"Don't talk big about you, first-class master, which one is not famous? Four people died at one time on this river and lake, how could it be so peaceful? As soon as these words came out, they also aroused the approval of many people.
A first-class master is not a cabbage, and there is one of the four elders of the Beggar Gang who is not a first-class master, such a person dies four at a time, which is tantamount to a depth charge, and it is long overdue to blow up the rivers and lakes into stormy waves.
"So it's interesting to say this, those four first-class masters are all incognito, do you think it's interesting?" The man's words were conclusive, but the rest of the crowd did not believe them even more.
"It's not surprising that a reclusive master, you said that there were four at once? They all died on a mountain, don't you think that we are all fools, and you can't deceive them? Someone said disdainfully.
"If you don't believe it, don't believe it, the kung fu of those four people is judged by the Changbai Immortals, if you don't believe it, there is nothing I can do." The man was not angry, and sat down to drink.
Lucy didn't have much of the heart to eat vegetables for a long time, how similar is this kind of thing to the murder on Huashan?
"Childe." Wan'er reminded Lucy that she didn't want her son-in-law to be in danger, this first-class master and the three small shrimps in the Wanjia Villa were not the same level of characters, so many first-class masters died unexpectedly, and Luxi didn't have the ability to take care of such a thing.
"It's fine, I'm just guessing for myself." Lucy is also a person who cherishes his life, so naturally he will not risk his life.
But the bearded man heard Lucy's words and laughed: "Didn't the little doll believe that man's nonsense? ”
Wan'er was also a little annoyed when she saw that this person had repeatedly offended her son-in-law, but she naturally would not overstep it from a big family, Lucy didn't speak, she didn't dare to make a decision for Lucy, so she could only glare at the man.
The bearded man saw that Lucy didn't react, and he became even more arrogant, and said with a drink: "Girl, don't follow your son, is it worth losing your life in the future?" ”
Lucy frowned, this man had actually sprinkled himself on drunkenness.
Seeing this, Wan'er also said: "If others say yes, you say yes, and when others say no, you don't think it's, I think your brain has also grown to others." ”
