readx;
Early in the morning, the Stone Town is full of people and traffic, and all kinds of vendors start to get busy, especially the tea houses on both sides of the street, and business is booming. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As a border city guarding the main traffic routes, Stone City is not only a military town, but also a particularly prosperous town, all the horses, cattle and sheep, timber, ore and leather armor and other sources from outside the Saiwai are concentrated here to hoard, and then diverted to various places in the Han Kingdom, where there are countless traders who started by trade, gathering caravans from all over the country, not counting the floating population who go south and north, the permanent population alone has hundreds of thousands, second only to Lin'an City, the capital of northern Xinjiang.
Driving, driving...... Groups of cavalry quickly whipped their horses and galloped wildly on the criss-crossing streets, everyone wore helmets and armor and was murderous, and passers-by saw that they could not hide, so they quickly hid to the side of the road to make way. For a while, chickens and dogs jumped, and people became nervous, thinking that there was some emergency military situation outside the plug, and no one dared to stand in the way.
Qinghe Tower, the highest teahouse in Stone City, Zhao Shuangying, dressed as a scholar, sat by the window and was sipping tea in a leisurely manner.
Here, you can enjoy tea while looking down on the whole Stone Town. Tea is the best Longjing tea, transported from the south of the Yangtze River with a fast horse, the water is the best water, and the crystal clear mountain spring that flows down from the snowfields of northern Xinjiang is taken, and even the teacup is the best Jingdelan in the Han Kingdom, and the people who can taste tea here are either rich or expensive. Although it was early in the morning, business was already thriving here, and the merchants who came and went to Stone Town were accustomed to gathering here to taste tea. After a few cups of tea, a big deal has been done.
Like other teahouses, Qinghelou is also very lively with people, people who know or don't know each other, are used to saying hello and drinking a few cups of tea together, and people who don't know each other are quickly familiar. The surroundings were very lively, but Zhao Shuangying's side was very quiet, seeing that she was dressed as a scholar with bright eyebrows and bright teeth, some people wanted to come forward to say a few words, but glanced at the few guards standing behind Zhao Shuangying, but they couldn't help but retreat.
This time when she went to Qinghe Tower to taste tea, Zhao Shuangying did not have many entourages, except for a personal maid, there were only three personal guards. Among these three people, there are Mu Chao and Corpse Quan The two big devils, although they put on ordinary robes and pretended to be ordinary people, but the cold aura was engraved in the soul, and there was an eerie and inexplicable danger when they went to that station, and no one dared to approach.
"Strange, who is that son?"
"That's it, which young master is it, he looks so handsome and chic, why have you never seen it?"
People talked about each other, Zhao Shuangying, who was dressed in scholar's attire and tall figure, quickly attracted people's attention, and several gentlemen who came early in the morning to join in the fun also came over.
"What kind of son? It's clearly a woman dressed as a man! Hehe, brothers, who can invite her to drink this cup of tea, today I will invite him to go to a chic day and a night!" Liu Pingchuan slapped a bag of gold ingots on the table, full of pride, although he was not old, his eyes were vicious, and he quickly recognized Zhao Shuangying's dress as a man.
Zhao Shuangying was still drinking tea, and she didn't seem to hear anything, but Mu Chao and the corpse Tuquan and other demons turned their heads to look at it, their eyes were cold and cold, and their faces were not good. A few stumbles in their hearts, and they felt a chill spread from the back of their heads down their spine to the buttocks vertebrae, and their hands and feet were cold all of a sudden. glanced at each other, and several gentlemen saw the fear in each other's eyes.
"Why, when people look at it, they don't dare to move? Do you still vainly call the three young men in the border city, just such a little guts?" Liu Pingchuan sneered.
"Liu Gongzi, I'...... , or forget it. Didn't you say you wanted to see the BMW outside the fortress, go, I'll take you to see it, and make sure you haven't seen such a fierce horse in Lin'an City! In the endless prairie outside the fortress, taming a raging wild horse that no one has ridden before is worth your trip!" someone proposed, and he panicked after being glanced at by several demons.
"Yes, Liu Gongzi, watch the wild horses go, go!" the other two gentlemen chimed in.
"Hmph, a group of guts guys, a small place is a small place, none of them have seen the world and have no prospects, look at me!"
Liu Pingchuan snorted coldly, Shi Shiran stood up, and walked over to Zhao Shuangying with a teacup held high under the gaze of a few gentlemen, "This young lady, how about you have a cup of tea?"
Zhao Shuangying raised her head and looked at the bold Liu Pingchuan, with a smile on her face. I saw that she was wearing a spotless white robe, with long black hair behind her head, the heavenly court was full and generous, although she was dressed as a man and a scholar, she couldn't hide her innate heroism and nobility, giving people an extraordinary temperament. For a while, Liu Pingchuan was almost stunned, his heartbeat accelerated inexplicably, and he was about to do something more, when he was suddenly lifted up by someone from behind by his neck.
"Who? bold, let me go, put me down!" Liu Pingchuan was shocked and angry, but no matter how he struggled, he was strangled by the people behind him and couldn't get out. A cold force came from the large hand on his neck, seeping into his body and internal organs, and soon his body stiffened, as if it was about to be frozen or frozen into an ice sculpture.
"Bold, don't you let go of Liu Gongzi?"
"You guys, you know...... Do you know what this place is?"
A few of them quickly pulled out the long sword hanging from their waists, and if it was the old days, they would have already swarmed up. Now, looking at Mu Chao, who was pinching Liu Pingchuan's neck with one hand, and looking at the slightest cold air coming out of Liu Pingchuan's body, he didn't dare to move his mouth with his mouth, but he didn't dare to take a step forward. The people in the teahouse looked over one after another, most of them were businessmen with a lot of money, but there were also many powerful martial arts masters, and when they saw the cold air coming out of Liu Pingchuan's body, their faces also changed greatly.
"What's your name, which family do you belong to?" Zhao Shuangying asked lightly.
Liu ...... Pingchuan, from the Liu family in Lin'an City. Liu Pingchuan hurriedly replied, lest he would be frozen into a popsicle if he answered a little slower, and now, he finally knew that he had mentioned an iron plate with one foot and provoked someone he couldn't afford to mess with. His cultivation is famous in Lin'an City, he broke through to the innate realm at the age of nineteen, and his half-brother Liu Pinggui is even better, and he has the highest call to become the next head of the family. However, in front of the big devil Mu Chao, he is vulnerable!
"Oh, the son of Beihou in Lin'an Town?" Zhao Shuangying understood Liu Pingchuan's origin, and seemed to know the world's forces well.
"Yes, yes!" Liu Pingchuan nodded hurriedly.
"Mu Lao, let him go!" Zhao Shuangying ordered lightly, not interested in looking at Liu Pingchuan any more, and turned to look at the horse team galloping in the streets and alleys.
"What is the Hou of Zhenbei, if you offend the eldest lady, you must die! Eldest miss, you will let me slap this kid to death, see how he is still screaming, quack!" Mu Chao Quack laughed, murderous, Liu Pingchuan, who had just seen a glimmer of hope, was shocked, and his body began to tremble.
"Alright, don't miss the big thing. ā
Zhao Shuangying took a sip of hot tea lightly, her tone was flat and she spoke softly, but the big devil Mu Chao didn't dare to say another word, so he quickly let go.
"Report ......"
A little devil rushed over and knelt on one knee in front of Zhao Shuangying, "Miss, the target is lost!"
"Lost?"
Without waiting for Zhao Shuangying to speak, the big devil corpse Tuquan became angry, and kicked the little devil who came to report the news out with one kick, "Heilongzhuang went one step late, and now, even the target has been lost, what do you want you to do?"
"The little one is guilty, and a dozen people have been guarding the city gates, but they are all lost. The target is mixed in the army's exact outfit, and he can't be recognized at all! The little one is not careful, please forgive the Lord Corpse, please spare the eldest lady!" The little devil crawled over, and he didn't even bother to wipe the blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, and kowtowed to Zhao Shuangying and the corpse Quan to beg for mercy as he spoke.
Zhao Shuangying was silent, still sipping tea in a leisurely manner, but the two big devils, Mu Chao and Corpse Sudden Quan, had gloomy faces.
Lin Tian and his entourage had already left Black Dragon Village, and the demons had already received this news, and knew that Lin Tian and the others were mixed in Li Han's army. But unexpectedly, no one expected that as soon as the army entered the city, it would suddenly divide its troops, break into pieces and run wildly in the criss-crossing streets and alleys, and divide into thousands of squads and go straight to the gate on the other side of Stone Town. Although the Demon God Cult had already deployed heavy troops in Stone City, it was also caught off guard for a while, and it was unable to block every street in Stone City. Once they were rushed out of Stone City by the disciples of the Qiankun Sword Sect to the outside of the Saiwai, it would be difficult to intercept them again, and all the previous efforts would be in vain!
"If you don't do it well, that's death!"
The corpse Tuquan's face was hideous, he stretched out his hand and slapped it out with a palm in the air, and the little devil who was kneeling on the ground was shocked out from afar, broke the fence and fell down the high teahouse. After a long while, the muffled sound of the body falling heavily on the ground came from under the Qinghe Tower.
In the teahouse, everyone changed color and felt cold, and Liu Pingchuan and a few other people who had no one in their eyes in the past were even more trembling.
"Corpse Sudden Quan, I know you have a lot of strength, but no matter how strong you are, why bother to shake people out of tall buildings, why bother?" Zhao Shuangying shook her head and glanced at Liu Pingchuan and the others intentionally or unintentionally.
"Miss, it's because the subordinates are not strict in command, and they haven't done the things that Miss explained well, please forgive Miss!" Corpse Quan said in a hoarse voice, the muscles on his face twitched, and he said hatefully: "I lost my target, and the net laid in Stone City was broken like this, Miss, I ......"
The corpse was a little ashamed, a little panicked, and more angry.
In the battle in the woods outside Black Dragon Village, he had been haunted by it, and he was going to kill Lin Tian in Stone City by himself, but he didn't expect that after preparing for so long, he couldn't even see Lin Tian's shadow. The people who are in charge of stalking are all his subordinates, which makes him lose face in front of Zhao Shuangying.
"Broken? Not necessarily!"
Zhao Shuangying smiled, looking full of ambition, the demon Mu Chao and the corpse Tuquan were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, but she was not in a hurry. Before he could finish speaking, an arrow pierced the sky with a piercing whining sound, and then exploded in the air, turning into a black python soaring in the air.
"It's She Tuhai, he's found the target!"
The eyes of the demon Mu Chao and the corpse Sudden Quan lit up and became excited, knowing that Zhao Shuangying had already prepared and countermeasures.
Hundreds of meters away, on a tower taller than the Blue Crane Tower, the devil She Swallowing Sea clinged to the spire like a snake, his long narrow eyes condescendingly looking down on the entire Stone Town, and quickly locked on a team of horses galloping through the streets, and saw the unique sweaty horse. With a long roar, hundreds of wolf-like demons emerged around him, and they flew down with him.
