The remnant sun is like blood, and the cold wind is like a knife. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Shen card time, Juyi Zhuang.

At this moment, Li Huanshan, the owner of Juyi Village, was sitting on a Taishi chair covered with silver-white mink cushions in the middle of the living room in the village. He leaned back in his chair and spread his legs apart and straightened. The pose was not elegant, but he liked it because he found it comfortable and a good way to relax himself.

He reached out and picked up a long-necked teapot made of white marble carved with a tiger with teeth and claws on the rosewood coffee table beside him, and then poured a bowl of Biluochun. The famous tea abundant in Jiangnan is Longjing, but he especially loves Biluochun.

He took a sip of his tea, narrowed his eyes, and hummed a dít. No matter who you are, you can see that he is living a comfortable and comfortable life.

He was very pleasant indeed, he was forty-three years old.

Forty-three years old is the age when a man has a successful career, is ready to enjoy his old age, and is full of money. Of course, he had a successful career, he founded Juyizhuang, made friends with many famous people, and organized a rebel army to resist the tyranny of the Great Yuan.

He is also the richest man in the area, and he also has a son and a daughter: the son is very filial and helps him take care of the rebel army, and will naturally inherit and magnify the family business and career he has created in the future; How can you not feel comfortable in life like this?

However, he soon frowned, obviously what troubles did he have, but what troubles would a character like him have?

Of course, he would be troubled that it was not easy to form a rebel army, and that it was not possible to recruit soldiers alone, otherwise, if the imperial court knew about it, he would suffer the disaster of annihilation, even though he was a martial artist. This is really a head-off thing, how can he not feel troubled when he has this kind of heart?

Li Huanshan fell into deep thought. Soon, however, someone broke his musings.

The one who broke his musings was his subordinates, his stewards. This person's name is Zhang San, his original name is naturally not Zhang San, of course there is a person named Zhang San in this world, but it is definitely not him. However, since he called the name Zhang San, he must have his troubles. If you are not cornered or have too many enemies, who wants to change your name and surname?

Li Huanshan raised his head, glanced at Zhang San, and said, "What's the matter?"

Zhang San bowed and said: "Qiyu Zhuang master, there are people outside the village who ask to see you." ”

Li Huanshan let out an "oh" and said, "Who is it?" Zhang San shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

Li Huanshan let out another "oh" when he heard this, and said, "Is this person a beggar?" Zhang San shook his head again and said, "No." ”

Li Huanshan groaned slightly and said, "Bring him in." ”

After a while, a young man dressed in a brocade robe and carrying a long package more than three feet long on his back followed Zhang San into the hall. Looking at the package on this man's back, it seems to be a weapon.

Li Huanshan frowned slightly, then got up and hugged his fists, and then said something that seemed to be nonsense, he said, "Your Excellency is here to find Li?"

The person who came arched his hand and said, "Exactly." Li Huanshan said: "Dare to ask Your Excellency's honorable surname?" ”

There are still people with surnames in this world, and there are. Since there are people with the surnames Zhu, Lu, Ma, Yang, and Mao in the world, there are naturally people with the surname Ji. Because this is the surname Ji, not the surname chicken, it's just a homonym.

Li Huanshan smiled slightly, and said, "It turned out to be Ji Shaoxia, and he missed the distance!" Ji Er also smiled slightly, and said, "Master Li Zhuang is too polite!"

Li Huanshan said again: "Ji Shaoxia, you and I have never met, I don't know what Shaoxia is doing today?"

Ji Er smiled faintly and said, "When I saw him today, didn't I know each other?" What's more, Ji Mou is here to give gifts, isn't the owner of Li Zhuang welcome?"

Li Huanshan smiled and said: "As long as it is a guest, Li will welcome himself, but I don't know what Mr. Ji means by 'gifting'?"

Ji Er smiled and did not speak, but reached out and untied the package on his back, holding it with both hands and placing it on the rosewood coffee table beside Li Huanshan.

Li Huanshan frowned and said, "What's in this package?"

Ji Er did not speak, but began to unwrap the package, his movements were careful and gentle, as if the groom was disassembling the bride's clothes on the wedding night.

The package opened, revealing a knife, a gorgeous and exciting one. However, how can the knife be excited?

Either way, it's a gorgeous knife!

The hilt was made of gold and encrusted with three dazzling pearls the size of grapes, and the scabbard of black shark skin was carved with a golden dragon, a dragon carved of gold that seemed to be about to fly through the air.

How can such a knife not be gorgeous? If a person in the martial arts gets such a knife, how can he not feel excited?

Li Huanshan admitted that this was a gorgeous knife, but he didn't feel excited, at least he didn't hear the taste of "excitement" from his voice, he said: "This is indeed a gorgeous and expensive knife, such a valuable knife, Li really can't afford it!"

Ji Er smiled and said, "Master Li, the magic of this knife is not in the price. Li Huanshan said: "Oh?"

"This knife is called the 'Thunder Knife'. "Ji Er does not go through the dust.

"Thunder Knife?" Li Huanshan shrugged and said, "But the 'Thunder Knife' of Lu Jinchen, the master of the Divine Sword Pavilion?"

Ji Er said indifferently: "Exactly." ”

Li Huanshan said again: "But the sword wind can kill people ten steps away from the 'Thunder Knife'?"

Ji Er smiled and said, "Not bad." ”

At this moment, Li Huanshan already felt excitement in his heart, very excited, because he couldn't help but show joy and ecstasy on his face after hearing it, but there was still no taste of "excitement" in his voice, he said: "As we all know, this 'Thunder Knife' is the 'treasure' of Lu Jinchen, the master of the Divine Sword Pavilion, where did Ji Shaoxia get it? And what is the relationship between Ji Shaoxia and the Lu Pavilion Master?"

Ji Er smiled faintly and said, "Ji Mou's words, I don't know if Master Li Zhuang can believe it?" Li Huanshan smiled and said: "Ji Shaoxia, let's listen to it." ”

Ji Er sighed and said: "One evening more than ten days ago, Ji was watching the scenery on the edge of the West Lake outside Hangzhou, and suddenly saw seven men in Ge robes holding long swords and sharp-beaked monkey gills chasing and killing a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man was carrying a package on his back, and he was already seriously injured at that time, and his robe was stained with blood......

Li Huanshan said: "So you rescued that middle-aged man?" There was obvious disbelief in his tone.

"Not bad. Ji Er continued, "As the saying goes, 'When the road is uneven, draw a knife to help', however, by the time I caught up, the middle-aged man had already been stabbed several times and fell to the ground dying. So......"

So Ji Shaoxia took care of the seven killers. Li Huanshan intercepted, his tone still full of suspicion.

Ji Er smiled: "Exactly." I killed the seven Ge Pao people, and the middle-aged man said that his name was Lu Jinshi. So I opened the package on his back......"

Before Ji Er finished speaking, Li Huanshan said: "Open the package and take a look, the thing inside is this 'Thunder Knife'?" There was already a lot of disbelief in his tone.

Ji Er said: "Exactly. ”

Li Huanshan stared at Ji Er in front of him, and suddenly laughed out loud. Ji Er said indifferently: "Why is Master Li Zhuang laughing?"

Li Huanshan replied with a seemingly irrelevant sentence, and he said: "I really can't imagine that Ji Shaoxia's eloquence is so good!"

Ji Er was stunned and said, "How can you say this?" Li Huanshan smiled: "The story told by Ji Shaoxia is so wonderful, Li is really impressed!"

Ji Er frowned and said, "Could it be that Master Li thinks Ji is lying?"

Li Huanshan said: "Isn't it?" Ji Er said: "No." ”

Li Huanshan snorted and said, "As we all know, this Lu Jinshi is the younger brother of Lu Jinchen, the master of the Divine Sword Pavilion. If Ji Shaoxia is not lying, then Li asked you, why is this 'Thunder Knife' in Lu Jinshi's hands, and why did he give you this 'Thunder Knife'?"

At this moment, if Ji Er can't give a reasonable reason, he is afraid that his life will not be guaranteed, and the situation is already very serious. However, Ji Er's face did not change, and he said calmly: "The reason for this is very simple. ”

Li Huanshan said: "Oh?"

Ji Er sighed and said: "Because at that time, Lu Jinshi said that his brother Lu Jinchen, the master of the Divine Sword Pavilion, was seriously ill, and he was deeply afraid that the gangsters would covet this knife and it would be unfavorable to the Divine Sword Pavilion, so he handed this knife to his brother Lu Jinshi, and asked him to find a secret place to hide it in order to prevent it from falling into the hands of the gangsters." It's just that somehow the news leaked, and Lu Jinshi was poisoned after all. The reason why Ji got this knife was because after Lu Jinshi told me these things, he was angry. ”

When Li Huanshan heard the word "villain", he couldn't help but change his face, but then he returned to normal, and Ji Er didn't notice it.

Li Huanshan groaned slightly and said, "It sounds like this reason is reasonable. ”

Ji Er said: "What Ji said is the truth. Li Huanshan nodded, and said, "What about later?"

Ji Er sighed lightly and said: "At that time, Lu Jinshi also said that the person who chased and killed him was 'a swarm of bees in the southern sky'. Master Li Zhuang must also know that this 'swarm of bees in the south of the sky' is actually the strongest underworld organization in the Jiangnan realm, with a total of thirteen people, and the leader of this 'swarm of bees', 'King Bee' Yin Shu, is a well-deserved first-class master. I killed the seven of them, Yin Kill will definitely not let me go, and I also want to keep this 'Thunder Knife' for myself, in this way, Lu Jinchen, the master of the Divine Sword Pavilion, will never agree, it is Ji Mou's ......"

Li Huanshan intercepted and said: "It was Ji Shaoxia who came to us with this 'Thunder Knife', right?"

Ji Er said: "Exactly, I hope that the owner of Li Zhuang can take it in!"

Li Huanshan laughed, he suddenly laughed, laughed, laughed so much that tears and snot flowed out, laughing so much that he leaned forward and backwards, and couldn't straighten his waist, as if he had discovered the most ridiculous thing in the world.

Ji Er's words were not ridiculous, at least he thought so, he said, "Is it so ridiculous in the next words?"

Li Huanshan smiled: "Isn't it ridiculous?" Ji Er said: "It's not ridiculous, it's not ridiculous at all." ”

Li Huanshan said: "But Li thinks this is really the most ridiculous thing in the world." Ji Er said: "How can you see it?"

Li Huanshan sighed and said, "Since Ji Shaoxia wants to keep this 'Thunder Knife' for himself, then why did you give this knife to Li?"

Ji Er smiled and said: "As the saying goes, 'A good horse is a warrior, and a sword is a hero', doesn't Master Li think that he is a hero?"

Li Huanshan's eyes tightened, and he said, "It's that simple?" Ji Er said: "Of course, there is another reason. ”

Li Huanshan said: "Oh?"

Ji Er Zhengse said: "I heard that Lord Li Zhuang is preparing to build a righteous army to fight against the imperial court. I'm not afraid of Master Li's jokes, he is a person who likes fame, and he really wants to join this army to fight on the battlefield for Lord Li Zhuang and resist the tyranny. This 'Thunder Knife' is a greeting gift, and the second is to show loyalty, I wonder if the owner of Li Zhuang is willing to accept it?"

"I see!" Li Huanshan pondered for a moment, and then said, "Ji Shaoxia is really willing to join Li's command?"

Ji Er said: "Yes, very willingly." ”

Li Huanshan said: "Ji Shaoxia killed seven people in the 'Nantian Swarm of Bees' in one fell swoop, which shows that the martial arts are extraordinary. If Mr. Ji is willing to work for Li, it will be a blessing for Li!"

Ji Er was overjoyed when he heard this, and said happily: "In this way, Master Li Zhuang agreed?"

"Of course. Li Huanshan smiled, "With Mr. Ji's skills, he can be the commander of Li's rebel army, but this army already has a commander, how about Mr. Ji be the deputy commander first?

Ji Er bowed his hand and said: "The owner of the village is too polite! Don't say that he is the deputy commander, even if he is a general, he is overjoyed!"

Li Huanshan nodded and said, "If I can really overthrow the tyrannical yuan and win the country in the future, I will never treat Mr. badly!"

Ji Er suddenly knelt down on one knee, hugged his fists and said: "I am determined to serve the owner of the village for the work of dogs and horses, for driving, in the water and in the fire!

Li Huanshan hurriedly picked up Ji Er, glanced at the "Thunder Knife" on the coffee table, and his eyes immediately emitted light, ecstasy.

He grabbed the thunder knife in his hand, raised it above his head, and said, "Ji ...... Commander Ji, this is not a gift, but a treasure!" However, he had barely laughed a few times when someone interrupted his laughter.

This person is still the housekeeper Zhang San.

Li Huanshan frowned and said, "What happened again?"

Zhang San lowered his head and said: "Liu Futong said that there is something important to report to the owner. ”

Li Huanshan let out an "oh" and said, "Let him come in!"

After a while, a burly man strode into the hall. When Ji Er saw the visitor, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
