In March of the fifth and sixth year of the Heruman calendar, the free city of Siam

Siam, belonging to the middle level of the Free City Alliance, has ordinary economic power and ordinary transportation status, although there is a water and land meeting at the same time, but because of congenital obstacles, it cannot become a big climate, and the only elder is its unique southern style.

Siam's climate is like summer all year round, and in June and July, the city is no different from a stove, and now it is only a March day, and the scorching sun is still drowsy.

The wonderful thing is that unlike the scorching heat of Siam, Denmark, which is not far from the neighboring city, is in the severe cold of heavy snow all year round, one cold and one hot, the obvious contrast, contrasting with each other.

The reason for this climate is very simple, that is, the effect of the earth's atmosphere. The so-called earth qi is the earth air flow hidden underground, and the abundance of that energy is far beyond the reach of any energy source in the world. Since the mythical era, people of insight on the mainland have made every effort in the energy development of "how to use the earth's gas", and the most important long-distance transportation in the four continents of Kunlun today, the earth-gas vehicle, is to use the earth-gas as an energy source.

The pulsation of the earth's qi can affect the operation of the entire local magnetic field, causing many incredible effects. The climate also has a great influence on the climate of the region, and an archipelago delta off the western coast of the Ice Continent is recognized as a first-class danger zone for unstable climate conditions.

The most striking feature of the most unstable area of the land is the place where the free city is located, that is, in the land of the wind, such as Siam and Denmark, or the high temperature of 50 degrees yesterday and the low temperature of minus 30 degrees today.

Through thousands of years of research, the creatures on the continent have gradually been able to control the earth's atmosphere within a certain range, such as setting up large-scale barriers at the junction of cities, keeping one city hot all year round and the other city cold all year round, or locking the originally very different weather to certain days, such as making a city sunny all year round, but as soon as July arrives, it will change overnight, and even the heavy rain for the next month, there are many kinds and too many to mention.

"Long, Long, Long!"

There were a few muffled sounds faintly in the distance, which were the sound of the ground gas car entering the station.

With the current civilization, when the ground gas car floats in the air at high speed, it can be almost silent, but because of the repeated protests (silent high-speed objects, often unprepared, causing accidental casualties), in desperation, we have no choice but to deliberately reduce the efficiency of equipment such as silencers.

Basically, if you want to enter Siam by land, the best idea is to get into Siam, and the station of the local gas car, according to Siam City, is still ten miles away, and these ten miles of road have to rely on personal transportation or walking.

The hot breeze brings up the sand and dust on the ground and blows it away. A sturdy young man wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and cursed: ", why is your luck so bad today, Uncle Ben has been waiting for a morning, and half a fat sheep can't wait, it's really his grandmother's." ”

To be patient, Lance has never had a good time, in order to collect the travel expenses after entering the city, he deliberately chose a wonderful position to ambush at this necessary point, who knew that he had waited for half a day, but it was in vain, at this moment it was nearly noon, the fiery and poisonous sun shone on the top, and he was angry and scolded.

From the morning until now, it's not really that no one has passed. Not only are there any, but there are many of them, so many that they are all one or two hundred people together, and such a large scale is certainly not something that Lance, a stupid bandit, can eat.

Due to the long gap between the rich and the poor, the security of the Wind Continent is not very good, except for a few regions other than Reins Tiren, the remaining countries can be said to be small disturbances, as long as there is a natural disaster, it will cause a famine at any time, causing a large-scale civil uprising, if you encounter a bad official who governs again, a chaos will not be able to escape.

Civilians are extremely poor and hungry, and the big ones rebel, and the small ones become thieves, so of course the law and order is not good.

Even if there is no famine, there is also a popular concept among the younger generation at present, "thieves are the best profession to become famous and accumulate strength", compared with honest martial arts training and knight examinations, you have to endure frustration before being admitted, and going directly to the sea to become a thief is undoubtedly a shortcut. Not only can you plunder a lot of money and women, but you can also justifiably test the sword with people, and enhance your martial arts through actual combat, what practice is more comfortable than this.

Therefore, a well-known group of thieves, with a level of attention that even exceeds the number of knights of the same level, often attracts many fledgling teenagers to join automatically, in order to quickly become famous, and even some famous knights, in order to make huge profits, or take the opportunity to break personal grudges, also join or form their own thieves group. In terms of classification, Lance belongs to the former, while the Flower Wind Cloud of the Wolf Howling Knight belongs to the latter.

For these reasons, it is natural that there are thieves all over the mainland, and the local government is unable to catch them, and sometimes they are not even opponents. Under such circumstances, the merchant travelers had to seek their own blessings, or hire mercenaries, or go on the road in groups to make a strong appearance. A caravan of one or two hundred people is simply common to the point of common sense, and only a stupid thief like Lance would not have estimated it.

"I'm so thirsty...... Ahh

"No matter, wait another quarter of an hour, if no one comes, Uncle Ben will go directly into the city. It's a robbery to go inside, it's a robbery here, why do you want to bask in the sun here!"

Discouraged by his performance, Lance had no choice but to comfort himself in this way, no matter what he said, he was also a thief...... Uh! The future thief, such a petty business, really does not fit with his identity, and he can't do it......

"Somebody's coming. ”

There was a sound of footsteps not far away, and it sounded like he was alone, and it was a good time to start, and Lance was ecstatic, and ducked into the ambush position, waiting for the fat sheep to enter the trap.

The footsteps of "rustling" rubbed the ground, and the fat sheep entered the target, and after waiting for another minute, it was foolproof.

Lance couldn't help but be a little excited, since he left Hangzhou, he was determined to be a thief, during this period, he also did more than a dozen cases, but they were all with his subordinates, and the number of failures was the majority, like this is all based on personal ability to commit crimes, but it is the first time, and it is inevitable that he will be nervous.

"Three, two, one" Lance silently counted the time, confirmed that the time had come, let out a low shout, and ran out of the ambush.

"Whew, it's so comfortable, it's really how it should be when you go to the toilet......"

"Fat sheep" carried the trouser belt, half-squatting on the hair pit of the public toilet for thousands of miles, his eyes slightly closed, as if he felt relaxed for the emptiness of his abdomen, suddenly, there was a tiger roar in his ears, followed by a "bang" sound, the door of the hair toilet was kicked through.

"Well, I drove this road, I planted this tree, and I want to pass by from now on......" Lance shook his head and said his usual line of this line, his eyes slightly glanced at the fat sheep. Let's see who has the honor of becoming the number one victim under Uncle Lance.

It's okay not to look at it, but this look only made Lance angry, only to see a short and fat young man, with a trouser belt in his hand, his face is like earth, his body is full of fat and shaking, and a pair of red eyes are actually like cats, narrowed into a slit. Lance said angrily: "What! Uncle Ben has been in ambush for a long time, and he actually ambushed a Shet!"

The Shet, the same as the Great Demon God King, is a taboo in the Wind Continent, but, unlike the taboo of the Great Demon God King, the taboo related to the Shet, probably in this form, "The local belongs to a high-end restaurant, and dogs and Shetters are forbidden to enter." ”

Legend has it that in the mythological era, there was a race that assisted the gods in opening up the world, but because of their own greed, arrogance, and extreme greed for money, they forgot the gifts of the gods, and committed many evil deeds, so they were punished by the gods. This people are the Shet people.

The Shet do not have an independent state, but belong to a mobile people, they travel all over the mainland, relying on divination, odd jobs, and running orders...... Waiting for a living as a handyman, it is not so much that they love to travel, but that there is an urge in their blood to not be able to live in one place for a long time. Some believe that this is part of the curse of the gods.

Of course, this is not because of the relationship between myths, but because of the national nature of the Shet, extremely despicable, they are timid, cowardly, noisy, lustful, when they encounter danger, they immediately scatter in a hurry, if they can't disperse, then they will rush to sell their friends for glory, there is a saying, "There are no Shetters who died in battle, only the Shetters who surrendered and were slaughtered; there is no unity in the world, only the Shetters who fought to betray each other and trampled to death." ”

In history, in almost all mythological poems, there are Shetters, who have played the role of all courtiers and villains without exception, and almost every famous hero has a record of being betrayed by the Shetters. It is said that the ancestors of the Shet, at the end of the mythological age, even betrayed their teacher, the savior of a sacred religion, to be crucified, which of course is only a page in the sordid history of the Shet.

In fact, just from the name "Sheter", it is not difficult to understand the contempt of the mainland races, the reason why the Shetter can survive to this day is not only because of the strong grassroots reproduction of this nation, but also because of the unique commercial talent of the Sheters.

In inverse proportion to his morality, the Shetter has a very outstanding business acumen, as long as he can stop and concentrate on doing things, he is often very able to create a career, and although the Shetter people are sycophant, but from another point of view, their eloquence is also excellent, especially in today's world, the princes and princes are often flattered by the Shett staff around them, flattering and fluttering, and they are greatly rewarded. Therefore, despite being despised by others, there are still a considerable number of Shet people who have some power on the mainland.

In view of several failures in the past, Lance learned from the pain, and decided to come up with a foolproof way to capture the fat sheep, instead of giving the fat sheep to eat, after several thoughts, he finally came up with a way, in advance ambush next to the only public toilet on the main road into the city, when the toilet is convenient, any master, also have to temporarily lose resistance, so that he can definitely receive the effect of surprise soldiers that catch the enemy by surprise.

Such an undisciplined robbery, naturally, even his peers shook their heads and sighed, but Uncle Lance has always been thick-skinned, and he doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with it. After thinking about it a few times, I thought I was proud, but I didn't know that the first time I used this trick, I actually ran into the Sheter.

In any case, it will not be too pleasing to the eye when meeting the Shet, and for Lance, the first time he robbed alone, the object was a Shet, which was of course a big touch, so he couldn't help but be angry.

Then I caught a glimpse of the back shelf placed by the door of the Shet, but only saw a few goods placed on it, all of which were not high-priced goods, and the bags were shy, and I knew at a glance that I might be poorer than myself, so I thought about it, the more I thought about it, the more angry I became, I raised my hand to raise the knife, cut through the wooden door, and shouted angrily: "Holy, why are you here, you Sheter. ”

"I ...... I don't know ......."

"Bastard, why are you a man?"

"I ...... I don't want to!"

The poor Shet, who was comfortable going to the toilet, suddenly kicked through the door, was stunned, and saw the person holding a steel knife, with a fierce face, and said that he wanted to rob, and he was even more frightened. He was carrying a trouser belt, but at this time he scared Lance, it was really and urine, and it stinked.

"Wow...... Can you have a little level, why does it stink so much. "Seeing that this Sheter looks gutless, it is useless to force it any longer, and if he confronts him like this again, he really can't stand his stench.

Seeing the steel knife dangling in front of him, the Sheter was terrified, put his head in his hands, and cried, "Don't ...... Don't kill me, don't kill me......"

"Hey, ...... the valuables"

"Wow! Don't kill me, I don't know anything. ”

"Hey!"

"Whoa, God, any god is fine, I don't want to die yet......"

Every time Lance yelled, the Sheter just trembled, hugged his head and cried, which made Lance not know what to do.

When robbing, the party being robbed does not resist and cooperates, which is very good! However, if you meet such a guy who can do nothing but cry, it is also a nerve-wracking thing.

In desperation, Lance swung his knife and said loudly, "Get out of here!" Remembering something in his mind, he hurriedly added: "Put on my pants and get out." ”

The Shet peeked at Lance in fear, and Lance said impatiently, "I won't kill you yet." Get out of here within a minute, or I'll be cut into pieces. ”

When the Shet heard this, he ran out as if he was about to be amnestied, and before he could stand firmly, he stretched out a pair of fat hands, hugged Lance's thighs, and cried: "Hero, hero, hero, you have a lot, please spare my dog's life!"

As soon as he stirred up like this, Lance was also laughing, and there was still a faint sense of immortality in his heart, and most of his anger disappeared in an instant, and then he looked at the shetman, with a bloated round face, tears and tears, and he also looked pitiful, and couldn't help but feel compassion, and said angrily: "Bastard thing!"

"Yes, yes, villains are, villains are......"

"How much money do you have?"

"Ahh......h I didn't bring much, only a few copper coins. ”

"Oh my God, bad luck. Lance secretly shouted and shouted, "Shao Luo, give me everything." ”

"Yes, yes......" Sheter stopped and slowly put his hand into his arms.

"Hurry up and hand it over, or you'll be chopped into meat sauce right away!"

With this roar, Shetter reluctantly took out a dozen copper coins. Generally speaking, the Shet people are extremely greedy for money, almost to the point of despising money, and their attachment to money is only under the hope of survival, and at this time, if it were not for Lance's steel knife dangling, making it clear that "if you don't give it or die", they would not take it out.

"There are a lot of bastards, and a poor shepherd like you is even more bastard. ”

Lance snatched it honestly and unceremoniously, muttering in his heart. This time the teacher is not good, you can't grab any big money, and if you ambush again, you probably won't gain anything, so it's better to enter the city and make a big deal!

was about to act, but when he saw a pair of cat eyes of the shet, looking at the dozen or so copper coins scarelessly, Lance couldn't help but be stunned.

"Stinky guy, what do you see. ”

Shet wiped his eyes, a smile narrowed into the corners of his mouth, and smirked at Lance.

"What are you laughing at, are you looking for a beating? Lance laughed heartily at him, and clenched his left hand into a fist.

Shet said, "The villain is happy, so he laughs." ”

"Neurotic, so happy to be robbed. ”

Shet shook his hand again and again, and said: "The hero's words are wrong, although he was robbed, but there are different types of robbery, robbing a third-rate thief is a robbery; ”

"Oh!" Lance said, "What do you mean, shouldn't you be turning around and scolding Uncle Ben for being a third-rate thief!"

"Don't dare, how dare the villain have such disrespectful thoughts. ”

"Well, is it possible, are you praising me for being a first-class hero, a hero?"

"Don't dare, such disrespectful thoughts, how dare the villain have. ”

"Interesting. Lan Siqi said: "This is not it, that is not it, then you can tell me what kind of robber Uncle Ben is." ”

"Hero, you have a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a heroic posture, a good appearance, a righteous face, a righteous face, a righteous person, a political and harmonious person, Zheng He went to the West...... This kind of heroism, how can it be compared to a third-rate thief. Sheter clasped his hands and said with a sneer: "However, the false names of heroes and heroes are just the names of ordinary ordinary people, and they are not worthy of carrying your shoes." A transcendent figure like you should be called a great man, a god, an ancestor, a North Star, and the helmsman of mankind. ”

So saying, the Shet bowed down and praised, "Oh! to be robbed by a great man like you...... Oh, no, it's a great person like being able to offer money to you, it's really the supreme glory of the villain's ancestors who have accumulated virtue and cultivated for thousands of generations!"

Thousands of wears, sycophants don't wear, these words, only to hear Lance's heart is excited, only to feel that since birth, has never been so glorious, watching the Shet people bow down in front of him, almost so cool that even the soles of his feet have to float. Finally, there was still a trace of reason in his mind, and he forced this feeling down.

"Hmm! It's so dangerous, I almost forgot what I called, this bowl of snow fan soup is really amazing. Lance barely calmed down, coughed twice, and said, "Well, look at your oily and smooth appearance, and you speak...... Hehe, it's pretty realistic. Money, I can't pay you back, but Uncle Ben is in a good mood now, and he can make an exception once and not kill people......"

"Thank you, thank you. The Shet man bowed and bowed for a while, and then raised his head in fear and whispered, "Thank you, hero, I don't know...... I don't know ......."

Lance said: "I don't know what, if you have something to say, Uncle Ben hates others to talk the most." ”

"Yes. That's it......" Sheter glanced at Lance, rubbed his hands and said: "A great man like you can get along with you for a while longer, and it is also a blessing for a villain, but I don't know if there is such an honor to accompany you into the city, so that the villain can admire your demeanor more......"

Lance was stunned, he didn't expect the other party to have such a request. Thinking about it carefully, this Shet was robbed of money, not only was he angry, but he also held himself comfortable, which is really a standard servile, but since he accepted his courtesy, if he didn't agree to this small request, it would seem that he was narrow-minded, besides, he flattered him a few more times along the way...... Isn't it comfortable?

After thinking about it for a while, he suddenly remembered that this Shete was not going to the city gate to shout and rob?

Lance was about to speak, looking at the shimmer's grovel, and feeling that he was too worried, would anyone believe a shher man's complaint?

With the idea of making up his mind, Lance shook the copper coin in his hand, put away the knife, and said, "Then, if you still speak well, I promise to let you admire the demeanor of the great man more, but you can only accompany me into the city, and as soon as I enter the city, I will break up, so that your mildew will be stained with Uncle Ben, and I will be upside down." ”

"Yes, yes, don't dare, don't dare, definitely, definitely. Can you really only get into the city?" the Shetter was slightly no, completely low-profile.

"That's right, as soon as you enter the city gate, everyone goes their separate ways. As soon as the word is spoken, the horse is difficult to chase, and this will never change. ”

"Is it really hard to chase a horse?"

Lance replied angrily, "Of course, why are you so annoying?" Can great men be admired casually?"

"Let's go!"

Taking a step, Lance walked in the direction of the city gates.

Behind him, the Sheter smiled slightly.

"Hmm, it hurts, how did it come to this. Rubbing the dark circles in his left eye, Lance felt like he had fallen into a big deal.

As soon as he was at the city gates, Lance had an inexplicable fight. Originally, everything was as planned, and the two men who were traveling together were about to part ways as soon as they entered the city, but when they entered the city, the guards who defended the city saw that Lance was in company with the Sheters, and demanded that a huge amount of customs duties be handed over according to the law.

Lance didn't know why, firstly, he didn't have so much money, and secondly, he only felt that the money that had just been put in his pocket was about to be spit out immediately, and he was extremely distressed, and the shepherd suddenly shouted loudly, accusing this of being a corrupt official on the one hand, and on the other hand, he kept shouting "big brother, boss", plus Lance's tone was not good, and a verbal conflict arose.

In the confusion, I don't know who made the first move, anyway, someone secretly kicked the guard, and the guard elbowed his backhand, but hit Lance in the left eye, and Lance instinctively kicked back. This immediately triggered a chemical effect, and there was a scuffle at the city gate, and many people who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to break through with contraband, and those who did not want to pay the customs duties, dispersed in a hurry, and the guards could not chase after them, and in the chaos, there was no trace of Lance, only to blow up their lungs.

"People say that the Shet are the source of unrest, and that's true. Lance rubbed his eyes and squinted at the sheter.

Sheter sorted out the things on the shelves a little, leaned back his back, and said with a smile: "Thank you great brother, I am really satisfied with letting the villain look at you for so long, so in order not to drag you down, I will leave." In the chaos just now, he was the first to take advantage of the chaos, and the high tariffs naturally did not fall on his head, offsetting the copper coins that Lance had robbed, but also greatly saved money.

"Bastard thing, who's your big brother. Lance scolded. No matter how stupid he is, he understands that he has taken advantage of it at this time, this Shet is so hateful, how can he let it go, and he will get some medical expenses back.

"It's a pity that everyone meets in Pingshui, and it's also fate, so separated. Lance said, "Besides, it's also your great luck to meet a great man like Uncle Ben, don't you want to pay more respects?"

"However, didn't the eldest brother say that after entering the city, everyone will go their separate ways, and it will be difficult for the horses to chase after each other?"

"Uh...... Since you and I are in love, then this is a trivial matter. "It just so happens that I am not familiar with this city, and I need a guide, so you can accompany me for a while!"

"That's right, good, to be a guide, the villain is definitely the first good kung fu. Sheter smiled: "I don't know the big brother's surname?"

"Lance. ”

"Oh! Bingran is a good name, as soon as you hear it, you will know the owner of the name, it must be tall and mighty, heroic and extraordinary, born beautiful, flowers and moon appearance, Shen Yu and wild goose, jade and ice clear, jealous of talent, broken flowers and willows......"

Lance's face was full of smiles, listening to his nonsense, but he was calculating in his heart, how to find a slave merchant later, sell this fat man to the king, and make up for the loss.

"Then, eldest brother, now the younger brother will lead the way. As soon as he heard that Lance had asked for him, he changed his name to "little brother" and got closer.

"Okay, you'll lead the way!" Lance smiled brightly, and the fire in his stomach had burned to a hundred degrees.

The two walked forward, through the alleys, and into the street.

"Hey, what's your name? ”

"There was snow. There is snow in the sky. ”

"There is snow in the sky, hehe, what a strange name, as soon as you hear it, you know that it is not as good as mine. ”

"This is natural, how can the little brother's cheap name be compared to the eldest brother?"

"Hahahaha...... Well said...... (I'll kill you later.) ”――

Siam has a complete political entity, which can be called a vast territory, with nearly 10 million people, everything is no different from a small handle, and the "city" is just a general name. In the Free Cities League, this is not uncommon.

The fixed track of the gas locomotive, with a station not far outside the city, has a river passing through it in the south, and the water and land meet, giving Siam very favorable geographical conditions.

The Mekong River in the south, in addition to its moist moisture, also brought fertile land, and for generations its inhabitants lived on agriculture and were self-sufficient, with a conservative attitude towards other outsiders, which made Siam an agrarian city that could not develop much.

At this moment, Lance walked through the streets of Siam and was exposed to this special culture for the first time.

"Why does this thing look so weird!"

"Haha, big brother, because this is the southern country!"

As Xue said, walking into Siam City, the completely unfamiliar exotic scenery almost made Lance dumbfounded.

Unlike the classical and prosperous city of Hangzhou, Siam City is like a veiled witch, active, changeable, conflicted and unpredictable.

There are many different styles of architecture, Buddha statues, mythological stories, white elephants, goldfinch birds, crocodiles, ...... All of them are delicately carved and decorated on the roof tiled cornices.

Tropical gardens with coconut palms and flowers, and an elaborate and elegant Oriental pagoda emerge from the rooftops of the otherwise mundane shops, narrow passages flow silently in the shadow of a luxury restaurant with hundreds of rooms, and some desolate but still recognizable Victorian palaces, decorated with miscellaneous things, at the back of the hotel.

Huge posters depict delicate beauties smiling and their naked carcasses in amazement passers-by, a group of children walking briskly, laughing loudly and kicking rattan balls through the streets, thousands of hovering swallows striding their heads high on the noisiest streets, and Siamese classical dancers dancing on the grassy lawn at a sunny tea party.

There are a variety of fruits and vegetables on the stalls, and because of the warm and humid climate, Siam is rich in all kinds of fruits, and the vendors also put out special products to attract customers. Flowers, fruits, handicrafts, acrobatics, every moment adds a new look to the street.

The wind blows through the tall coconut treetops, and although it is still hot, it is mixed with a special fragrance that invigorates people's spirits.

"Oh, there are still places like this in the world!" Lance rubbed his chin and looked at his surroundings.

Until last year, Lance had spent most of his life journey in the mountains near Hangzhou, and the "dead old man" would also mention to him the wonders of the outside world after dinner, but he never had the opportunity to see them on the spot.

This time, Lance made a long journey to the Free City, for the sake of a transaction, but also with the idea of "going to the outside world". For Reims, more experience was absolutely necessary.

Roadside vendors are very popular, especially the merchants selling antiquities, all kinds of goods, like treasures waiting to be explored, exuding mysterious temptation, but, compared to the allure of the utensils themselves, the vendors are all lazy, or lying on their sides or on their backs, and some even directly cover the face with a tile, napping on the street, without any intention of greeting customers.

Lance was a little puzzled and looked at Youxue. Youxue shrugged his shoulders and said, "In the tropics, this is normal! The weather is so hot, who still has the strength to shout loudly, most of the orthodox Siamese people are very lazy, as long as they earn enough money to eat and drink today, they will close the stall, which is very trouble-free!"

In the tropical region, because of the abundance of products, the people do not need to work hard to make a living, and they pick up food everywhere, so the people have relatively little fighting spirit, and in addition, the high temperature for a long time will also make the people of the place lazy, drowsy, and have no energy to do things, as far as the southernmost Maldives is concerned, the region even saves work, and purely uses tourism as the main source of income.

"It's too hot......," said Lance, looking around, and smiling meaningfully, "That's a good one." ”

Because of the hot weather, the inhabitants are mainly dressed in cool linen. In the past, Siamese women mostly wore blue tones and embroidered simple traditional patterns, which looked very simple and beautiful, but in recent years, Siam has been in more contact with the outside world, and the style of clothing has been affected, and the clothes of the younger generation have begun to appear in more bright colors, and the embroidery patterns have also become exquisite.

On the street, you can see several young girls, choosing a baked headdress in front of a gold jewelry stall, biting each other's ears from time to time, exchanging whispers, and then laughing.

The girl's appearance is just ordinary, but she shines because of her "youth" and "laughter". Their outfits are simple, linen vests and shorts, just right wrapped in plump limbs, most of the pink arms and calves are exposed, soft laughter, swaying, the gold rings on the wrists collide with each other, making a pleasant "dangdang" sound, and the hearts of others are rippling.

However, compared to these girls, the other group of people on the street, dressed in untimely leather clothes, constantly wiping sweat with hand towels, and a pair of eyes, with a fierce gaze, fiercely watched the every move of passers-by. This group of people seemed out of place in the street scene, and at a glance they knew that they were from out of town.

If you look closely, there are still many such people, groups of people, distributed in various shops and restaurants, and the expressions of strangeness and hatred towards each other can be seen that they do not know each other, but for some reason, they are in a situation where conflict is about to occur.

"Well, that's not right!" Lance remembered that there had been a lot of such men at the gates of the city just now, and in the morning ambush, these people also accounted for the majority of those who entered the city, and they were all martial arts, and most of them also had knightly qualifications, as evidenced by the lightsabers at their waists. Siam City is not a wealthy area, and there is a sudden influx of so many high-rollers, I am afraid that something will happen.

"No, it's not a way to go on like this, Uncle Ben is here to commit a crime, not to pick up girls, you have to find a way to figure out the situation first. Sensing that he might have many competitors, Lance became wary and decided to find a place to sit down first.

His eyes moved, and Youxue leaned over in amusement, and said, "Big brother has worked hard all morning, he must be hungry, little brother knows that there is a good restaurant here, it's better to ......"

"Well, that's fine. Glancing at Youxue, Lance nodded. I thought to myself: I almost forgot about this fat man, and I will find a slave trader to sell him later, and if the slave merchant does not accept the Shet, then transfer it to the meat stall and sell it by the pound, and feed it a little heavier, and the price will be better when the time comes......

He was about to walk, but somewhere in the southwest, the sun shone brightly, reflecting a very dazzling light, and Lance couldn't open his eyes.

If you look closely, you can see that it is a high-rise building, but it is a typical oriental style building instead of the local Jindome style architecture in Siam. The other buildings around are a considerable distance from the tall building, obviously isolated, it seems that it should be the residence of a certain dignitary, but why does it look a little dilapidated......

Lance looked at Youxue with a puzzled look in his eyes. Youxue understood, her face immediately became solemn, and she said, "Big brother, you can't look at that place, let me tell you, it's a haunted house!"

"Haunted house!" Lance was taken aback, and then curiously asked why.

"Oh ...... this"-

Originally, the high-rise building, is a part of the garden, originally belonged to a Shen family, the history is extremely long, the Shen family wealth is the most prosperous, the garden built is beautiful, magnificent, often invite many celebrities to come here to chant poems against it, and then the Shen family fell, the descendants moved, this garden has been abandoned since then.

When the descendants of the Shen family moved, they wanted to resell this garden, but there was a strange thing, Siam City was originally a hot place, since the establishment of a large-scale earth qi barrier, enclosure to build a city, even more so, but once into this Shen family garden, not only did not have a trace of heat, but the gloomy atmosphere, teaching people to be cold all over the body. What's more, since the fall of the Shen family, this forest garden has been frosty and misty all year round, and the white plums are blooming all over the place, which is a wonder.

Siam City many times want to study the reason, always get no results, after a long time, there are rumors that there are powerful ghosts occupied, the living people see dizziness and vomiting, a serious illness, people whisper to each other, the Shen family forest garden has long been regarded as a ghost domain in the world, the living people are not close, the name of this haunted house, it will be gone.

"That's right!" said Lance, silent, trying to guess the key. The man who made his trip wanted him to see, think, and remember everything in the spirit of experience, so that he could quickly enhance his experience, so it was very rare for Lance to seriously carry out the brainstorming that he was not good at.

The garden is not far from here, and from this point of view, there is really nothing special about it, and it is really difficult to understand that there will be such a strange convenience.

"Hmm~Hmm~Hmm~ That's it!" Youxue at the same table was not so leisurely, and this Xuete gave full play to his biological instincts, and while someone was willing to do it, he sent the four-colored snacks on the table into his mouth like water.

This restaurant is called "Nan", which is a chain of a well-known restaurant in Shangri-La, which is considered a first-class high-consumption place in Siam City.

However, even if it is a high-consumption place, there are still low-class seats for entertaining ordinary customers, Lance has a meager travel expenses, and he has the idea of eating overlord meals in his heart, of course, he does not dare to run to the VIP seat, so he can't run away after a while, and the two honestly picked a seat and sat down in the corner by the door on the first floor.

Since it was an ordinary meal, it was naturally inferior in all aspects, and the appetizers on the table were also quite rough, only the Shet was like a starving ghost reincarnated, eating and drinking heavily.

Maybe it's noon, so it's a low-class general seat, but there are still a lot of customers who come to patronize it, and the venue of "Nan" is large, only on the first floor, I'm afraid there are not three or four hundred people. They talked loudly, drank wine and ate meat, and made the first floor no different from a market. It's just that, as it can be seen literally, most of the guests are not attentive, their mouths are talking, and a pair of eyes look into the street from time to time, and when they find something to do, they hurriedly reach into their arms, trying to pull out their weapons, and the whole person is in a state of imminent tension.

Obviously, this is the same kind of people as you have seen on the street before, or rather, people who have come for the same purpose.

Among the guests on the same first floor, Xiang made up the majority, and the rest were mostly locals, who did not feel the eerie atmosphere and chatted happily.

In the corner diagonally opposite, there sat a black-haired man, judging from the lightsaber casually tied to his waist, he should be a knight, but he didn't know how to cultivate. He didn't seem to care about what was going on in the streets, he just drank vigorously, and there was a plate of snacks on the table that I didn't know whether it was peanuts or melon seeds, and all that was left was bottles piled up like a hill.

This man was not really tasting wine, he was holding the wine urn and drinking wildly, and the bottles and cans discarded on the ground contained all kinds of different alcohols, and the only thing in common was that the alcohol concentration was high enough. However, this person's alcohol consumption is obviously good, and he tries to avoid a pair of red drunken eyes and sleepiness, but he still opens a new wine and dries it, treats the spirits as boiled water, and replaces it with an ordinary person, and he has already died of drunkenness under the table.

Lance was amazed, and just wanted to go over to see what kind of character was so arrogant, and something else stopped him.

It was the guest at the table directly across from Reims.

The man was also a young man, dressed in white, sitting alone, with only a small bottle of wine on the table. He stared blankly at the corner of the street, fidgeting, occasionally calming down, trying to pour himself a glass of wine, but his hands were shaking so that he couldn't hold the bottle steadily, and the expression on his face was worried and frightened, as if something was difficult to decide.

Lance was surprised, stretched out his elbow and bumped into the snow, and whispered, "Hey! ”

Youxue was stuffing the last two pieces of dim sum into her mouth, and gave Lance a sudden bump, almost choking to death on the spot, swallowing the things in a gulp, following Lance's gaze, and couldn't help laughing: "It's also funny, one pours wine violently, and the other takes the wine and doesn't drink it...... Yes, does the eldest brother think that the kid is too wasteful, if he doesn't drink, no problem, if he doesn't drink, let's drink, I'll go to him and say ......" and get up.

Lance scolded secretly, pulled Youxue back into his seat, and said, "Stupid, who wants you to pay attention to this, I want you to look at the kid who doesn't drink wine......" especially lowered his voice, Lance said: "Don't look at this kid is white and clean, Si Swenwen, tell you, he is a thief, he came here to rob." ”

"Wow, the eldest brother is really good, wise and powerful, wise and extraordinary, he is really a natural helmsman, the sun of mankind, and even this kid is here to rob. Youxue was amazed and asked, "I wonder how the eldest brother saw it?"

Of course, Lance was embarrassed to say, because he was also a thief, and this was a peer. At the moment, he just kept a straight face, pretending to be mysterious: "The secret of heaven must not be leaked." ”

There is nonsense on the lips, but there is joy and worry in the heart. The good news is that I have been able to attract so many high-rollers from all over the world, and there must be a big case to be done here, and I have not made a trip in vain; the worry is that up to now, I still can't figure out the relevant information, and I am so dizzy that I am afraid of missing the opportunity.

"No, it's going to be bad if it goes on like this. Lance glanced at Youxue, this Xuete can't do anything else, he is quite knowledgeable about what he has seen and heard all over the mainland, maybe he can ask something from his mouth.

Before Lance came to his senses, Youxue summoned his buddies to order a few dishes in impure Siamese language.

"Hey, don't be too expensive, I don't have much money on me. If you have more points, you will be responsible. Lance found out that there was snow ordering food, and ordered two words.

"Oh, you're responsible. ”

Youxue nodded, thought for a moment, and a pair of cat eyes squinted proudly. After making sure that Lance was in a daze again, Youxue said to the man, "This, this, and this, it's very hot, I want a 'pot soup', this master is good at everything, but 'Pulichnuluan' needs a little more...... By the way, I still want a few copies of "Nan Ma Bubble", thank you"

The man saw that it was the Shet who came to patronize the business, and his face was full of displeasure, but when he heard what he ordered, he couldn't help but feel a little closer, and his face gradually became calmer, and when he heard the second half of the sentence, he looked at Lance in surprise.

"Oh, it's okay, this uncle, amazing, first-class. Youxue pointed at Lance and gave a thumbs up in praise while patting her chest in reassurance.

Lance couldn't figure out what was happening, seeing the guy's surprised expression, and Youxue was trying his best to make sure, naturally he knew that the guy looked down on him, and snorted heavily, he couldn't speak Siamese, so he reached out and patted his chest, putting on a confident look.

Seeing Lance's attitude, and such a strong figure, the guy thought that this person was probably fine, and after bowing his waist, he ran to Zhang Luo.

"Go, what the hell, the dog looks down on people, and when Uncle Ben makes a fortune, he wants you to kowtow one by one and admit your mistakes. Lance muttered in his mouth, he didn't know what was going on, but he thought that the big guy would look down on the guest, and he must have thought that the guest had no money, so as soon as he opened his mouth, he scolded the guy for being poor and loving rich, which was not a good thing.

Finding that Youxue seemed to be very familiar with the area around Siam City, Lance wanted to ask, but Youxue had already smiled and said, "Let's come early, sit for a while, and you can see beautiful women!"

"Beauty!" As soon as he heard the word beauty, Lance forgot all about the deal, and asked repeatedly: "What beauty, is it beautiful!"

Youxue smiled and said: "It's beautiful or not, I don't know yet, I also heard from the clansmen that at noon recently, there will be a beauty who will come out to play the piano, and the appearance is really gorgeous, and the country is overwhelmed, so I rushed here and wanted to bet on the demeanor of the beauty!"

Lance's heart itched when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to see the beauty immediately, and said secretly: "You short and fat man, you are less than three inches tall, what kind of beauty do you look at, go back and look at the mirror, it's almost the same as self-determination, you want to see the beauty, at least ...... Hmph, at least Uncle Ben's demeanor......"

Youxue said: "I really can't imagine that the beauty hasn't seen it yet, so I met the great man first, and I can see the great man of your eldest brother, and the younger brother is happier than seeing ten or eight beauties!"

Lance shook his head and shook his head when he heard this, and secretly praised this kid for speaking decently, and he was indeed a hero figure. He had planned to sell Yuxue to a slave trader, but he had been flattered along the way, and maybe it would be useful to him later, but now he wanted to go with this man, and he had an answer when he committed crimes, and he began to regard him as a partner.

There is a snow road: "Hey, look at the expression of the eldest brother, could it be that you are also a fellow practitioner?"

"Fellow Daoist!" Lance was stunned, saw the obscene smiling face of this dead fat man, and hurriedly denied: "Who is the same person as you, Uncle Ben is very normal, but ...... Don't think I'm on your way. ”

"I'm not talking about that. Youxue leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Looking at the appearance of the eldest brother, he is also from other places, I wonder if the eldest brother is in another kiln, does he have any good powder?"

"What is that?" Lance tilted his head and thought about it, he knew what a kiln was, but he couldn't understand what a "powder" was, was it some kind of food?

Youxue hesitated: "Well, I'm just asking you if you have a good...... Uh! confidante, yes, is there a good confidante ......" found strange eyes on the left and right, and Yuxue omitted the additional word "on the bed" in his busy schedule.

Lance couldn't answer for a while.

Be a good confidant! That person, count?

In the middle of August last year, he stole the dead old man's treasure as a passage fee, sneaked down the mountain, met a stupid man on the way, robbed him of his clothes, and prepared to enter the city...... After that, I can't remember what happened after that.

I only remember that when I became conscious again, I was lying on a very comfortable soft bed, and my body was injured somehow, and what appeared in front of me was a beautiful and beautiful girl, who was smiling lightly and accompanied herself in her injuries.

During this time of recuperation, the maiden visited him every day, and treated him very well, telling interesting stories at the bedside all the time, and peeling the fruit, so that he would not be depressed.

She told Lance that her name was Moongrass, and that she was the illegitimate daughter of a high-ranking official of Reins Tylen, who had come to Heruman on a study tour. Two days ago, when he was swimming in the lake, he was molested by thugs, but fortunately, Lance suddenly rushed out, showed his might, and repelled the gangsters, which kept the peace, but in the chaos, Lance hit the head with a stick and fell unconscious.

After listening to these explanations, Lance didn't seem to understand, he didn't understand why his injury was hit in the head, but the pain was in the chest.

Lance has no good impression of the so-called aristocracy, and he really can't think of it, and he can't think of how he could save a young lady. At the beginning, Lance was still a little jealous of Cangyuecao's family background, and he didn't dare to talk casually. Unexpectedly, this woman looks noble and elegant on the outside, but she is debauched on the inside.

Without waiting for Lance to recover from his injury, one night, under the pretext of repaying her life-saving benefactor, she sneaked into Lance's bed, teased her, and then ...... The two hooked up like this, and during that time, every night, the spring Xiao continued, and the intensity in the heart made Lance blush when he thought about it.

After recovering from his injury, Lance left Hangzhou and traveled everywhere to start a business, but he didn't expect that he would be entangled with the nymphomaniac from then on, and he couldn't be at peace. Lance's whereabouts are uncertain, sometimes chased by officers and soldiers, it is even more precarious, but it is also strange, no matter where Lance goes, every once in a while, she will always come to the door, spend the night together, stay until the next day, and then leave on her own, so several times, Lance is also accustomed to it.

Sometimes Lance thinks about it, this Cangyue Cao is actually a good girl, so good to herself, very clever with a lot of weird ideas, very beautiful in appearance, at least among all the women she has seen, no one else can compare to her, and her reaction is good...... There's really nothing to find fault with.

However, is she a confidante?

Lance wasn't sure, he only knew that if he wanted to ask for a wife, he would never marry such a woman.

The attitude towards men is so picky, you can hook up with a man for a reason, such a woman, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not go out of the wall when she marries home, and she remembers the first night the two spent together, and the fact that she is "no longer the first ye" makes Lance unhappy. Lance even wondered if this woman was usually so prodigal with other men, and any strong domestic servant she could hook up with her, just like she touched her own bed.

In any case, it is better to keep a certain distance from this woman, if she only sees herself as the object of consuming sexual desire, there is no reason to position her too high, so as not to be disappointed in the future, right?

"Nope. Lance replied, "Not yet." ”

"That's great. Youxue smiled and said, "I'll take my eldest brother to go shopping later, don't look at this Siam City is not an elegant place, hehe, exotic beauty, it's still quite exotic......" Youxue finished speaking, laughed twice, and knew each other.

After this while, it delayed Lance's questioning, and Lance was about to ask about the recent situation in Siam, when the guy who ran the hall approached and served a hot meal.

Probably because it is a general meal, the cuisine is also a very ordinary local dish. The "pot soup" with snow spots is a rice porridge with egg drops and sliced meat, which is a famous product of Chiang Mai, and the "pot soup" with snow spots is a very ordinary curry rice, which is a soft jelly in cooked coconut, candied fruit wrapped in banana leaves, and in addition, there is a pot of chilled coconut water, which is "Nan Ma Pao" with snow spots, which is transparent and clear, and exudes a natural fragrance.

"Come, you're welcome, eat it while it's hot!" Youxue is an old horse, picked up a lot of seasonings on the table, didn't look at it, and added it to the bowl.

Siamese cuisine is dominated by spicy flavors, and in addition to chili peppers, there are also many common seasonings, such as coriander, garlic, perilla, cardamom and a round eggplant. In addition, there is a sauce that is also a treasure of the Siamese people, which is a sauce that is processed by grinding fish into a pulp, "fish sauce", "nampura" in Siamese, and the taste is very delicious.

Lance seemed a little disagreeing with Yuyuki's crazy move to add sauce. Look at the dishes on your plate, the yellowish Siamese sticky rice, the aroma of steamed rice, the orange and green curry sauce, the tangy spicy taste, and the moderate appetite of people, no matter how you look at it, it is a good delicacy. The standard of this restaurant is really top-notch, and even the food of the general table is so good, I really should reward it.

Most Siamese dishes are soups and waters, so chopsticks are rarely used and spoons are used instead. Lance scooped a spoonful of rice and was about to put it to his mouth, but when he saw that the diners around him were staring at him with wide eyes, several men gathered together, pointed in surprise, and kept saying something "Pulicino".

Lance frowned and asked, "What the hell are those guys talking about?"

Youxue took a sip of soup and said casually, "Oh, they said that if the eldest brother can finish this meal, then we will have a free meal......

"Neuropathy, the backward place is the backward place, and you have to make a fuss even if you eat. Lance replied angrily, scooped a spoonful of rice vigorously, and put it in his mouth without thinking.

In the mouth of the meal, without chewing two bites, Lance felt that there was a fire in his mouth, a feeling of so hot and hot, like a red-hot needle, constantly stimulating the taste nerves.

Yuxue noticed something strange and stopped eating rather regretfully, looking at Lance.

"Big brother, are you uncomfortable?

“......”

"Really, it's getting more and more popular, it can't be that you have fallen for a traitor's plot!"

“......”

"You know what? You look like the one bards used to talk about...... That one...... Charizard!"

"Roar!"

Lance roared, a face that was so red that it could drip blood, and tears flowed down his eyes. He jumped up at a speed almost beyond his sound, kicked over his chair, and shouted, "Water, water, water......"

"Big brother, wait a minute, I'm prepared......"

Lance was still waiting for him, caught a glimpse of something on the table next to him, it should be cold water or something, snatched it with his hand, and poured it into his mouth.

After drinking it all in one gulp, it seemed that something was wrong with the taste, and when Lance looked again, the cup turned out to be filled with the famous spirit of the place, "Flaming Red Lips". The owner of the wine, the hesitant young man in white, was looking at him in surprise.

"Roar ......!"

In front of the eyes of many guests, Lance tilted his head, and a bright red pillar of flame erupted from his mouth.

"Oh, big brother, my mother has always told me since I was a child, you have to be careful when you eat, you have to chew slowly, otherwise it is easy to eat bad stomach, why didn't your mother tell you?"

Xue Lala was talking in a mixed manner, and she didn't forget to summon her guys and ask for another pot of soup. Opposite him, Lanceton blushed and teary eyes, just drank coconut water to relieve the spicy.

After performing fire-breathing acrobatics in public at Lance, leaving all the diners stunned, and then thundering applause, he grabbed the damned Shet and demanded the truth of everything.

It turns out that Siamese cuisine is mostly spicy, and curry is a famous Siamese cuisine, no exception, among the various chili sauces used to make curry, the most spicy one, called "Puchili Nuluan", this sauce made of small green chili peppers, the beautiful orange appearance often makes people underestimate its power, often only a small spoonful, can make outsiders jump from the chair spicy.

In order to match the tastes of outsiders, Siamese chefs usually dilute the sauce, but the chef of Nan has great self-esteem and scoffs at this practice, and instead uses a unique recipe to make it spicy, upgrading it to a signature dish, and setting a rule that if anyone can finish a plate of Puchilino curry without changing the color of the noodles, the meal is free.

"That's why you sold me like that, turtle egg. Lance replied hoarsely, it was the after-effects of the performance of Spitfire.

Youxue said: "Big brother, you said that you don't have any money, and you said that you have to be responsible for a little more, so you have to use this method." Look, didn't it turn out as expected?"

Although he didn't finish the meal, and his face changed drastically, because Lance accidentally showed his acrobatic skills, the supervisor of "Nan" was very surprised and announced that the meal would be entertained at half price, and the diners who watched this performance also threw bounties one after another according to the rules, and after deducting seven or eight points, they also made a small fortune.

The fire in Lance's stomach scolded all the eighteen-generation ancestors of the Sheters. I thought to myself, the Shet people have a talent for business, this is really true, if it weren't for the fact that this person will only use his friends to make a fortune, he is a great travel companion. Now, of course, I can't get along with him for a long time, so I should quickly ask what the deal is, and part ways as soon as possible.

"Hey, I said boy......

"Big brother, my name is Youxue. ”

"I don't care what your name is, you just listen to me. Lance asked, "In this Siamese city...... Isn't there anything big going on lately!" he said, pouting at those who were waiting for him.

Youxue Deng realized when he realized, and said, "Oh, those people are here for the wedding of the Oriental family. ”

"Oriental family, what Oriental family?" Lance asked with a frown.

"Well, big brother, do you know who the five strange people and the seven great families on the continent are?" hurriedly swallowed the slices of meat in his mouth, and Youxue said vaguely.

"Five strange people?" Lance was stunned, but he couldn't answer.

It has been nearly a year since I went down the mountain, and after I left Hangzhou, most of my time was spent on self-forging chains and recruiting partners, and I did not have the opportunity to increase my experience in the rivers and lakes.

At this moment, I can't answer such a question as a matter of course, but I don't want to lose face in front of this dwarf ghost, so I have to squeeze my brain, try to make up some sporadic memories from the dead old man's words, and slap my swollen face and become fat.

"Five strange people! Well, of course Uncle Ben knows, that's what it is, yes, two saints and three sages, just five. Lance couldn't help but admire that his brain was really good, and he could really make up five numbers.

"Three...... Three sages, ha! Binghahaha......"

As soon as these words came out, Youxue seemed to see some extremely ridiculous plaything, first shook it for a moment, and then squirted out a big gulp of coconut milk mixed porridge, pointing at Lance and laughing.

"Uh-huh-hee-hee-hee...... Puff puff ...... Hey, hey, hey...... Hahaha......"

In all fairness, it is not a pleasant pleasure to watch a Scheater laugh wildly in front of him, the voice is strange and unpleasant, and the five short fat hands that are shaking around alone are enough to stimulate the viewer's desire to destroy, especially when he is the one who is being ridiculed, it is a bit like throwing a torch into vegetable oil......

Lance was at first inexplicable, and his face was red with ridicule, and then he became angry, and the new hatred was added to the old hatred, and the fire erupted three feet high, and finally he decided to turn over the table and beat the frog to death.

Probably sensing the murderous aura, I saw that there was a snow-white roll of his eyes, and said, "I said big brother! The Dragon Clan and the West Queen Mother Clan have not had a clan for more than a thousand years, and I am afraid that they will be extinct long ago. As for the two old men, Huang Taiji and Kadar, they have not been silent for hundreds of years, and maybe, they have died so long ago that even their bones are used to beat the drums! These outdated old ranks, it is better not to show them to be embarrassing. ”

After a pause, Youxue asked in a low voice, "Do you want to know who the people on the rivers and lakes are today?"

This question, the clever question, Lance is a teenager in the end, and he has not been a fledgling for a long time, he is already deeply interested in these miscellaneous anecdotes, Youxue's question, just hit his little remaining curiosity, and his face changed to an angry look of interest, put down the original clenched fist, and urged Youxue to say quickly.

There was a snow face, and the thief smiled and said, "Have you heard that there are three divine swords on the rivers and lakes, four sons, five strange people and seven major sects. ”

Lance was confused and shook his head like a tambourine.

Youxue shook his head, as if he had never heard of this, why don't you die and come back, looking at Lance, just catching a glimpse of Lance's fist clenched again, and hurriedly filled with a smile, laughing loudly: "Don't tight, don't tight, it must be the eldest brother Shenwei Gaishi, these small little people can't get into your ears, so you don't know, haha...... Haha......"

"Well, that's like a human saying!" Lance nodded, still urging him to speak.

In fact, Lance didn't know anything about this accident, but it wasn't entirely his fault, his teacher's temper was extremely arrogant, he never took others seriously, and his own vision was extremely high, so he would never mention these juniors to Lance.

Youxue put on the appearance of a storyteller, shook her head, slammed the table, and chanted in a long voice: "Vermilion Bird Sword, White Deer Sword, and Demon Guide belong to Reyns after all;

Since the Great War of Kyushu, it has been more than 2,000 years, during which the revival of the old country, the decline of the people, the new state of the world also has the world, with the continuous flames, the wars have arisen, before the four major forces determine the approximate territory, the continent of the wind can be said to have entered the most chaotic Warring States era.

In the war against the demons, the masters of the previous generation were almost killed and injured, and there were very few who could survive to the Warring States period. However, heroes everywhere thousands of miles of waves, generations of talented people, long-term blood and blood struggle, for the cultivation of talents to provide an excellent testing ground, generation alternation can be carried out, the group of heroes rise, capable people double, how many heroes at a time, enough to replace the old generation of new blood appeared.

The representatives of the white road of the old generation of rivers and lakes, the two saints and the three sages, are either defeated and withered, or their life and death are a mystery, except for the "Moon Sage" Lu You is still standing, the rest do not even have heirs, and the rivers and lakes naturally need new leaders to fill the vacancies.

Therefore, after several large-scale competitions, with all kinds of detailed information, Shangri-La, the "capital of not falling", as the main evidence, announced a "god list", recording that there are currently 180 masters on the mainland, which are passed on to the world and resealed every five years. And on top of this god list, there are still two popular slang.

"The Vermilion Bird Sword, the White Deer Sword, and the Magic Guide belong to Reyns after all.

Five hegemons are strong, seven heroes are out, who is respected by the three kings and four princes?"

Lance said, "What the hell is that?"

There is a snow road: "Hey! As the saying goes, 100 days to practice knives, 1000 days to practice guns, 10,000 days to practice swords, although there are many weapons in the world, it is still a sword." And in today's world, if you want to talk about sword practice, it is to practice the sword and the vermilion bird to dominate; if you talk about sword practice, it is naturally the only one in the White Deer Cave, but when you want to talk about the level of magic, in the end it is still Reins Tiren, which is unparalleled in the world. ”

Lance was a rough man and didn't understand much about the situation in various countries, although it was interesting to listen to at the moment, he was still a head or two big, and Youxue had to follow the explanation.

The Vermilion Bird Knights are the Guardian Knights of the Martial Arts, with countless masters in it, and they are one of the three major knights in the world.

In order to promote unity with each other, the chiefs were invited to form a knight order, and the blood was an alliance, and the phoenix flag was painted, which is the origin of the Vermilion Bird Knights.

In view of the fact that the White Deer Cave was powerful at that time, the swordsmanship was beyond the reach of any other sect, if the traditional "sword is the king of the army, the knight must use the sword" regulations, the Vermilion Bird will never be able to reach the White Deer Cave out of the Broken Sky Knights, the first generation of the lord resolutely abandoned the sword from the knife, recruited various masters, or bought a lot of money, or stole the teacher, or encouraged the study, poured the power of a group of talents to study the sword, so that several generations and there are great achievements, the Vermilion Bird Knife and the White Deer Sword are equally famous. The current commander of the Vermilion Bird Knights, the fifth king of the big sword, and even has the reputation of "the first sword in the world".

As for the White Deer Cave and Reins Tillen, they were both well-known schools that had a long reputation before the Kyushu War. The White Deer Cave is known as the authentic martial arts of the Wind Continent, and the head of Lu You is the first in today's martial arts, and the seven disciples are all masters of the heavens, and more than ninety percent of the Knights of the Broken Dome are from their schools.

Reyns Tiren, thousands of years of cultural accumulation, in the development of magical civilization, is really extraordinary, although successive queens have been inhuman, the country is like a river, but in the end it is a hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff, can still firmly grasp the power of the Magister Guild, so that the rest of the power is both envious and jealous.

"This first half of the sentence represents the three major powers on the continent right now, plus the Free City Alliance, the continent is cut into four pieces!" Youxue stopped talking and drank the coconut water in the cup in one gulp.

The Sheter eats a lot, and there is no exception to Xuezi, and his movements are extremely fast, taking advantage of Lance's fascination, he tells allusions, the soles of his hands move like flying, and most of the snacks on the table enter his stomach pocket, and the weeds of the Sheter make a living, which can be seen.

Among them, the most representative characters are the four princes. Spotting that Lance was beginning to pay attention to the leftovers on the table, Yuxue hiccuped and quietly took the conversation away.

Bingran, Lance's attention was diverted again, and he asked, "What four princes?"

"Hey! The so-called four princes refer to the four strange men with princely status on the mainland, they belong to the four major forces, heroic and hospitable, raising soldiers and accumulating wealth, turning their hands into clouds and rain, all of them are incredible big shots. "There is a snow road: "Hei Luman's 'Dingyuan Jun' Hu Liegu, Wu Lian's 'Changle Jun' Shi Chong, Reins Tiren's 'Xinling Jun' Bai Wuji, and Shangri-La's 'Tang Yanjun' Li Yu. ”

"Li Yu?" Lance frowned, puzzled, "Why is this name so familiar!" He seemed to remember hearing many people mention it.

"Of course, Sword Immortal Li is the number one person in the mainland in recent years! He broke into the Black Luman King City three times, and under the guidance of thousands of masters, he easily took the head of the enemy, and tested the world with his sword. Some people say that his martial arts are already above the three great divine swords. Youxue paused, and when he found that the coconut water had been drunk, he coughed twice and smiled flatteringly at Lance.

"Okay, okay, I'll call again, don't look at me like that, I'm sick to get home. Lance beckoned to order another one, but the guest at the next table had already automatically handed over a pot full of coconut water.

In order to make a living, the Shet people are mostly good storytellers. Youxue is obviously also a good player, speaking in a round, well-organized, funny and funny language, but it attracts the attention of hundreds of people in the restaurant.

"Hey! Thank you. Thank you all for your enjoyment. ”

When Youxue saw that there were other listeners, she was even more energetic, dressed up, put on the appearance of a storyteller, knocked the clay bowl on the table with a spoon, and opened her voice and sang loudly.

"The bowl in the left hand, the spoon in the right hand, sounded a jingle to speak, other jokes don't need to be said today, let's talk about the old old Nantang~~"

After a pause, Youxue stood up and made a square gesture to the audience, which won the applause of the audience.

"Said the Southern Tang Dynasty, Dao Nantang, the Golden Lotus Palace is so brilliant, but he gave birth to a Queen Li, and the country was ruined and the family died~~ Deer Long Dong floated, Deer Long Dong floated, Deer floated and floated~~"

The personality of the person is gloating, and although the lyrics of the lack of morality in the snow made some guests spray rice, while he sang it, the audience around him still opened their mouths to laugh and applaud. Lance was stunned, but he didn't expect this Humpty Dumpty to have this rap skill.

The education level of the common people on the mainland is generally not high, and some historical deeds and humanistic allusions can only be learned from the clergy, or heard from the bard's performances during sacrificial celebrations.

However, when the clergy gave lectures, they sounded so distorted that the bard's singing, though beautiful, was sometimes difficult, so an ancient profession came into being, the so-called storyteller.

Storytellers appear in many urban taverns and teahouses, where they take historical stories and popular novels and organize them into wonderful chapters and replace them with slang and colloquialisms to make them easy to understand. Sometimes, in order to increase the drama, they will exaggerate the facts and tamper with the original meaning, but the listener knows that this is the case, but still listens with relish, and the bounty is even more generous.

Due to the high mobility of storytellers, similar habits to the Shephets, and the national characteristics of "the Shephets are friends of noise and nonsense" and "where there is nonsense, there are Sheters", the two make do with each other, making the Sheters one of the most suitable storytellers.

Even the harshest judgment has to admit that the mouthful, exaggerated, and noisy people of the Shet people add a lot of color to the storytelling, but the original storyteller is angry at this group of uninvited peers. For no other reason, due to the large number of Sheters joining, the storyteller has since been classified into a low-level industry, which is of course a disaster for the other races who were originally engaged in this industry.

There is snow beating the dishes and singing, according to the bard's standards, his only strength is only the loud voice, as for the incomplete pentatonic and absurd walking, it is not a problem, anyway, the lyrics are explosive, the guests listen to the eyebrows fluttering, laughing, that is.

There were people in the crowd who knew Li Yu's deeds, and after listening to the extremely sarcastic lyrics, they shook their heads secretly, and some even changed their faces. However, the Shet people are born with a lack of morality, and as we all know, if he is humble and reasonable, it will be a miracle, and Li Yu's actions are indeed negotiable, and he has been evaluated by both sides in the hearts of the people in the past three years. Coupled with the fact that it is not related to the family, seeing the joy of others listening, of course, no one will come out to risk this.

In order to increase the interest of storytelling, storytellers often use a variety of skills to open the scene, or with comic strips, or sing counting treasures, or playing musical instruments, a variety of things are not enough. Although Youxue only told Lance allusions, not really telling the story, he also used flower drum percussion to bring the opening, which is the most common opening cliché used by the Shet. I only heard him hum the last sentence, and the end note was particularly elongated......

"Say Li Lang, iron courage and good son, heroic and unparalleled, Qinhuai River is famous, win ~~ win ~~ win the green hat turtle king eight ~~~"

He deliberately raised the sound of "winning" high, hanging the audience's appetite, when people led their necks to look forward to it, this suddenly and quickly slid down, the sound of "turtle king eight" lingered, in the laughter, the whole scene became warm.

The audience was certainly amused, but there were also people who frowned. The storytelling of the Shet is dramatic enough, but due to the nature of the people, they are often bitter and mean. It's not that it's not intentionally looking for a fight, it's just that the Shetter people will always feel that the lively strife is better than the tasteless blandness, rather than saying some trivial words, it is better to say less shocking and endless, "The Shett people are the source of turmoil" The sentence "Shetter is the source of turmoil" is 100% true at a certain level.

Therefore, there are many cases that prove that many poor Schute storytellers were killed on the spot by the angry crowd after only singing the opening and before they could officially start speaking, which also increased the mortality rate of the nation again.

"Boom!"

The sound stopped, but there was a sound on the left, and it was the man who drank violently, and finally fell off the table drunk, and happened to put his head into the empty wine jar, and burped drunken in the altar.

When everyone saw this, they burst into laughter again. Yuxue took a sip of tea, cleared her throat, and began to speak.

"Speaking of this Li Yu, he was originally a small handle in the south of Heiluman, the prince of the Tang Kingdom, worshipping under Lu You's door, and he was born to be a genius with a sword...... Youxue said carefully, explaining how Li Yu was outstanding in martial arts and high-spirited, how he was competitive and resentful, how he was poisoned and his family was ruined, and how he was crippled and given to death.

Most of the audience present had heard of this, but most of them only knew a vague outline, and at this time, when they heard Youxue say this, they all sighed, thinking that it was really a tragic thing in the world.

There is a saying: "Elegant people do vulgar things, no matter how vulgar they are, they are also elegant, and ordinary people do elegant things, no matter how elegant they are", Lance is worthy of being an expert at boiling cranes and burning pianos, and after listening to the story, his face did not change, but he just asked vigorously, "What about the beauty? Isn't there another beauty?"

Youxue shook her head and said angrily: "The country is dead, of course the beauty has entered the harem." ”

Lance let out an "oh" and nodded, "That's it! No wonder it's called the Turtle King Eight, and he is still cuckold when he dies, and Li Xiaozi is really dead." ”

Some teenagers who admired Li Yu turned white with anger at this sentence, and they wanted to have a seizure, but they were worried that Lance and the storyteller were the same thing, so they simply ignored him, and just urged Youxue to say it quickly. Some people even deliberately approached Lance to see if he was a modified Sheter.

There is a snow road: "If you die like this, then it will be clean and clean, and Hei Luman will be blessed with all the heavens." ”

Lance was stunned and said, "Why didn't Li boy die?"

Youxue glanced at him, as if to blame "how to call other people's boys, it's really rude", and said: "Naturally not dead." Not only did he not die, but two years later, the eldest prince of Li reappeared in the rivers and lakes, and he didn't know what adventures he had, and his swordsmanship was only more powerful than when he was not injured, and he practiced the ancestral Qinglian sword song to a great extent, and immediately turned the world upside down. ”

The audience knew that the next part was the highlight, and they hurriedly waited with bated breath.

As soon as the eldest prince Li came out of the rivers and lakes, he immediately infiltrated the city of Heiluman and assassinated the enemy, but he didn't know how, he lost his hand and returned in vain. ”

Everyone was silent, although they all thought it was amazing, but if he was really determined to take revenge, but he didn't even have this ability, then there was no need to go out again, and it would be faster to wipe his neck and become a ghost.

Hei Luman lost this big face, and naturally swore to kill him and then quickly, who knew that the official document of sea capture was only issued, and Li Yu sneaked into the royal city, this time, his swordsmanship was greatly improved, and he quietly assassinated several princes, and cut the plaque in the main hall of the palace into two demonstrations, which was greatly majestic. It's just that when he left, he hit the knight of the broken sky, a fierce battle, Li Yu couldn't please him, and after injuring more than 100 knights in a row, he was seriously injured and fled. ”

When the masses heard this, they were a little sensational, especially the Heruman people. The Knights of the Broken Dome are the elite of the Black Luman, with a cloud of masters, and a large number of people, which can be said to be the first of the three. It is already extremely difficult to escape under its encirclement, let alone cause such a brilliant result.

"Well, so arrogant, is Black Ruman not able to do it?" Lance wondered.

In the next nine months, Hei Luman dispatched a master, wanting to take advantage of his injuries and kill him, but Li Yu's whereabouts were evasive, and the pursuers were always missing. On the contrary, Li Yu traveled around the world in the midst of his injuries, assassinating and killing high-ranking officials and officials of Hei Luman on the one hand, and testing the world with a sword, from south to north, straight into martial arts, defeating 143 famous swordsmen from all over the country in a row, and spreading the word in the rivers and lakes. ”

"Later, Heruman planned to force this person out of the country on the one hand, and on the other hand, he gathered domestic masters to form a team of annihilation, and combined the strength of everyone to kill him......

Lance nodded, "Sounds good, is there any problem?"

Youxue smiled and said, "Doctrine is naturally good, but ah! If everything had been expected for them, Li Yu would have died with the Tang Kingdom, and there would not be so much trouble today." ”

Hearing Youxue say this, Lance was stunned for a moment, remembered what he said earlier, and said, "You said that Li Xiaozi has entered the royal city three times, is it ......?"

Youxue slapped her palms and smiled, and said, "Guess right, just when everyone thought that Li Yu was still practicing martial arts, Li Yu didn't know what magic method he used, crossed the layers of search nets, and entered the Central Capital again." This time, however, is a little different. ”

"What's the difference?"

"The first two times, I sneaked in, but this time, I broke into the door openly. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar. Lance didn't know what was so special about this, but he saw a look of disbelief on the left and right, and he was very surprised, and hurriedly asked.

Youxue knew that he didn't understand, and explained: "In the middle of the city of the King of Heiluman, the four gates of the southeast, northwest, and northwest are all metal, with special materials, and they are as high as a hill. Legend has it that it is a mythical era, refined from the meteorite outside the sky, when Hei Lu Man built the city, it was built by a master craftsman with countless painstaking efforts, plus forty-nine enchantment protectors, no matter how powerful the divine sword is, it will never be damaged in the slightest, it is the symbol of Hei Lu Man's infallibility, how to know...... Hey, hey!"

Youxue Qian laughed twice and said, "I heard people say! That day, Li Yu flew with a sword, straight to the main gate of the east, encountered a heavy gate blocking the way, did not stop for a while, the backhand was a sword, the illusion turned into three, the guards did not see the shadow clearly, the city gate that no one could hurt for thousands of years, actually cut out a long giant hole, giving people a veritable break into the door. ”

Smelling such a divine sword, Lance was shocked and envious, and said, "Then what about next, how many people died?"

Youxue didn't answer, and suddenly fell silent. Everyone didn't hurry, vaguely, everyone felt that the next joke to be said must be earth-shattering.

After a long while, snow spoke. I only heard him say slowly: "That day is the fifth and sixth year of the Heiruman calendar, and the first day of the first month ......."

Everyone, including Lance, shouted in disbelief, "What!"

Although Lance is blunt, he also has a basic common sense. Every New Year's Day, it is an important festival for the Son of Heaven to lead his ministers to worship the heavens, which is the case in all countries. In the case of Hei Luman, not only must all the Knights of the Broken Vault be present, but there are many of them, and even the five major army commanders who are usually divided into various places will also bring their senior generals back to Beijing, which can be said to be the time when the top masters in Hei Luman's country gather. Picking on things at this time is no different from sending them to death.

According to the people who saw it at the time, halfway through the ritual of sacrificing to the sky, several heavenly powerhouses had already noticed that something was wrong, and the east suddenly brightened, and a shocking sword aura came from the sun, pointing directly at Cao Bin, the commander of the Third Legion.

That Cao Bin is the number one master of the Heiluman royal family, and his martial arts have reached the realm of supernatural power, and his divine fist is invincible. Because of his brilliant achievements, he has just been transferred from the Fourth Legion to the commander of the Third Legion, and he is also the commander of the Broken Dome Knights.

When he saw a little blue light attacking his body, he didn't dodge, and shouted, "The thief is rampant", and jumped into the blue light. The two fought in the air, dismantling one hundred and ninety-eight moves, thunderbolts roared, and the sword qi rushed into the sky, only to shock everyone in the field, when the fight reached one hundred and ninety-nine moves, Cao Bin's skills were superior, and a style of "nine thunderbolts" shattered Qinglian's sword qi and shook Li Yu's weapon out of his hand. ”

"What happened, what happened?" asked Lance, anxiously. Everyone can vaguely imagine the scene of that day, Cao Bin punched like thunder, blasted through the sword net, and even Li Yu's sword was shaken off, he had no weapons to use, and Cao Bin took advantage of the victory to pursue, and the situation was extremely dangerous.

"Then Li Yu saw the fierce move coming, he was not in a hurry, he leaned back in mid-air, avoided the oncoming punch, Cao Bin was about to change his move, Li Yu had already copied back the sword with his left hand, said that it was too late, it was fast, he waved his backhand, the sword turned into three, and Cao Bin was cut into three sections, and died tragically on the spot......"

Youxue slowed down her voice, and the listeners only heard their hearts trembling, their mouths wide open, and they couldn't speak.

Lance felt so strange on the side, there was Xue who said this with his own eyes, as if he had seen it with his own eyes, could it be that he was also present at the time? None of this makes sense.

However, looking at his skillful appearance, this paragraph is so popular, I am afraid that he has already said it dozens of times, with the professional habits of storytellers, of course, he adapts the story by himself, so as to be vivid, add vinegar and ginseng sauce, which is no wonder he tells it so vividly.

"Li Yu beheaded Cao Bin, but he didn't run away, he fell to the ground, and without waiting for others to make a move, he sent his sword to fight in all directions...... "There is a snow road: "The next thing, you can imagine, Li Yu is a single lone sword, fighting the four major army commanders, and the sword breaks through the Knights of the Firmament, this vicious battle is fought, only the wind and clouds in the middle of the battle have changed, the sky is miserable, and the school field in front of the palace has almost become a flesh and blood slaughterhouse, which is miserable......"

"What happened later? Is Li Yu okay?" A man dressed as a businessman was fascinated by what he heard, knowing that Li Yu would be safe in the future, but he still couldn't help but ask.

"Later, the leaders of the four major legions were all wounded, and none of the Broken Knights present could retreat with their whole body, as for Li Yu, it is said that after a series of fierce battles, he was beaten like a bloody man, and none of the flesh and bones of his body were intact, and he was dying. Youxue sighed: "However, Rao is injured like this, he wants to leave, but no one stops him, so he is seriously injured and breaks through." ”

"Li Yu entered and exited three times in the middle capital, and the injuries when he came out were heavier and heavier each time, but the martial arts he showed were also stronger and stronger each time. "There is a snow road: "There was an earth-shattering battle in the imperial city, and Hei Luman was frightened, secretly united the four major forces, started a bloody battle against Qinhuai, and dragged Li Yu to flee with his life. ”

Although he understated it, but people who know a little about current affairs know that the bloody battle of Qinhuai can be called the most tragic battle in a hundred years, Si service, Li Yu single-handedly challenged the four major forces, three hundred and twenty-six masters of the seven major sects, killed the ghost crying god, the sun and the moon are not shining, and the survivors are only one percent, it is said that after the battle, the Qinhuai River is red for it......

There is a snow road: "After this battle, Li Yu disappeared, everyone speculated that he had died of serious injuries, and the Heiluman royal family celebrated with wine to each other, but half a year later, Li Yu reappeared in Jinling, and his martial arts were only higher, this time, although he did not do it again, but all the people who had seen him only had such four words, "unfathomable". ”

Lance said: "With his high martial arts, there should be something bigger this time, isn't it to assassinate the emperor of Black Luman?"

Youxue shook her head and said, "What happened this time, falling through everyone's glasses, is really incomprehensible. Li Yu, he shook hands with Hei Luman and made peace. ”

Lance shouted "ah", he couldn't have imagined that after practicing such a divine sword and forming such a blood feud, Li Yu actually reversed his original intention and reconciled with Hei Luman.

"Anyway, things took a turn for the worse. Hei Lu Man issued an edict to the world, the Tang State officially belonged to Hei Lu Man, divided into a special administrative region, from now on exempt from taxes, free from forced labor, enjoy all kinds of privileges, Li Yu was awarded the "Longxi County Prince", given 10,000 gold, go to the palace with a sword, free from kneeling, see the emperor does not worship, from then on belong to the Hei Lu Man nobles. ”

"At that time, it was the top hot news on the mainland, some people were happy, some people were disappointed, and some people were resentful. ”

Lance asked, "Why is there still anyone resentful?"

Youxue said: "Why not, there is a faction of diehard temperament among the remnants of the Tang Kingdom, insisting on disobeying Hei Luman, and they have been expecting Li Yu to lead them to resist, and now I heard that Li Yu is talking about peace with others, and he blows his beard angrily and glares at him. They were unwilling, so they sneaked into the venue on the day Li Yu conferred the official position, and when they were about to issue the knighthood, they rushed out and committed collective suicide. ”

Lance was taken aback, he didn't think anyone would do such a thing.

Youxue sneered: "But, they died of them, are they so happy?" Li Yu didn't look at it, took the knight's seal, and didn't drink Hei Luman's celebratory wine, and left. After that, there were many rumors about Li Yu on the mainland! Some people said that he was great and a great hero, while others said that he was despicable and shameless, and that he was the first shameless coward. ”

Lance thought for a while, and felt that this man's actions were really incomprehensible, and said, "I only don't know two things, one is why he made peace with Heruman, and the other is his fiancée?"

There is a snow road: "Why do you want to make peace with Hei Luman, I am afraid that only Li Yu himself knows about this matter in the whole world." Some people say that he talked about peace because he saw that Hei Luman was powerful and wanted to protect the remnants of the Tang Kingdom from military disasters; some people say that he was greedy for life and afraid of death, and some people think that it was Hei Luman who invited the national teacher Lu You to go out of the customs, which forced Li Yu to negotiate peace. ”

Everyone was silent for a while, no matter how high Li Yu's martial arts are, in the end, he is under the White Deer Cave, no matter how he is against Lu You, who has already shocked the world two thousand years ago, if the master really goes out, the apprentice will naturally have to bow down and obey orders.

"As for the concubine? Some people say that Li Yu was willing to make peace with Hei Luman for the sake of this red face, but after the peace talks ended, the woman suddenly disappeared, not in Hei Luman, nor by Li Yu's side. ”

There is a snow road: "Of course, there are many theories, some people say that Hei Luman has already executed this woman in order to take revenge on Li Yu; there is also a theory that Li Yu was angry with the woman's water-based Yang Hua and killed her with a sword with his own hands." There are many theories, but they have never been confirmed, and no one dares to ask Li Yu, "Where are your old shoes?"

One of the guests couldn't help but say, "Everyone wears old shoes, no wonder they are called turtle kings and eight ......," and halfway through speaking, he covered his mouth for his companion. The people who heard it, some of them didn't have a good impression of Li Yu, they just laughed.

Lance just didn't think he laughed, and he didn't laugh. This Li Yu's actions are indeed too controversial.

"Hee-hee...... Cuckold Turtle King Eight ...... Hee-hee...... ......I don't know what the sound came from there, some people hiccuped a few times, and muttered "Dawang Ba" repeatedly, his voice was low, and he became more and more sad, and when he came later, he actually cried loudly.

Everyone was amazed when they heard the crying sorrow, and the one who cried was the drunken man in the wine urn, and his head was still in the wine urn, but the cry kept coming from the urn, which was a spectacle.

A few well-wishers approached and asked him why he was crying so sadly, but he didn't answer silently, but just sighed long, and there seemed to be countless grievances, infinite sorrows, and endless sadness in the sighs.

Someone wanted to ask him what was sad, but he heard the loud snoring in the urn, and the drunken man had already fallen asleep. The crowd looked at each other silently, thinking that this person was also a sad person, and recalled the story of Youxue, so they cried and sighed. It's just that listening to his sigh is extremely sad, I can't imagine that there can be such sadness in a person's heart, so isn't this person's life worse than death.

Youxue sighed and said, "Over the years, every time Li Yu's story is mentioned, the hall is as difficult to decide as this, it seems that to evaluate this matter, only thousands of years later, the descendants will be able to close the coffin." There is a division of teachings: The world is like a mystery, and there will always be Taoists behind. Ladies and gentlemen, come back here today, please be early tomorrow. "Anyway, I made a quartet.

The audience was full of applause, seeing the snow salute, upstairs and downstairs, they all responded with thunderous applause, which was deafening.

Hearing this story, Lance was silent for a while, and he was fascinated, thinking, no matter what Li Yu's evaluation is, if one day, he can be like him, with the power of one person, to look down on the world, so that he can be regarded as a big husband and a big career.

"Li Yu is a human being, I am also a human being, of course I have done what he has done, and one day, I will be like him...... Hehe!" Thinking of the hero's heroism, Lance began to fidget, and just wanted to make a big fuss-

"Everyone, everyone, please be quiet, please be quiet. I don't know what happened, but the guy who ran the hall suddenly shouted.

The guests stopped talking and looked that way. The man stepped out of the way, and a figure slowly paced down the stairs behind him, appearing in front of the group.

There was a snow eye that was shining, and he even forgot the banana fruit in his hand, and said, "It's finally here, it's finally here......

I saw a young woman, holding the Yueqin in her hand, walking down the steps with lotus steps, and bowing to the guests for a thousand blessings. Her face was veiled and she couldn't see her face, she wore a Siamese sky blue shirt, and her long satin-like hair was gently combed behind her ears. Her fingers are longer than ordinary people, and the white and slender shallots are as clear as tender jade, giving people a deep impression.

"What a fairy-like character. Although I can't see her, but looking at her graceful body, she must be a good look, I really didn't expect to meet such a character in this place, Lance secretly cheered, thinking back to what he saw, except for Cangyue Cao, he had never seen such a beauty.

There is a snow road: "Then, that's what I'm talking about, I heard people say that a big beauty has recently come to this restaurant, hehe, it really didn't come in vain." As he spoke, his face was full of eagerness and greed.

"Everyone, everyone. The man made a gesture in all directions, and said loudly: "You come to patronize the small shop today, it is a blessing for the small shop, but there is something today, I need the help of all the masters, there is a girl in the shop, there is a girl in the shop......"

The guy said some polite words respectfully, which roughly means that this Wuniang girl, after the nobles, a famous family, her hometown suffered from the disaster of war, and she wanted to go to Heiruman to seek refuge with distant relatives, and traveled to Siam, because of the lack of travel expenses, she was displaced here, and a single daughter's family had no skills, so she had to show up and perform in desperation, hoping that you would help her to make up for the travel expenses......

This kind of thing is very common in the continent of the wind, travelers to a certain place travel expenses, then to street singing, juggling and other skills, to earn living expenses, this is also the beginning of the bard, and then this trend slowly spread, not only bards, often ordinary people in distress on the journey, will also do this, if you can find a good reputation of the restaurant to sing for a long time, the income is considerable, this Wu Niang seems to be so.

Lance smiled, "It's funny, I just finished telling a storyteller, and now I'm a showman, it's a coincidence today." ”

After the guy introduced, he retreated aside, Wu Niang bowed to the guests, found a stool by herself, sat down against the wall, took a deep breath, plucked the strings with her fingers, tuned the tone, and began to play it gurglingly, the tune was soft, and it was a popular song on the mainland today.

The masses talked and laughed on their own, and some people listened to it, Wu Niang's fingering skills are really good, plucking the strings and turning the shaft, cardamom waving lightly, the piano sound is full of emotion, fascinating, and her fingers are long, and the posture when plucking the strings is even more beautiful and elegant, teaching people to be fascinated. only played a few songs in a row, but she didn't sing a few words softly, it seems that she only played the piano and didn't sing.

The beauty is silent, although it makes people feel regretful, but she is a noble girl of the family, and she holds the book ceremony, and it is difficult to come out to perform skills, and it is impossible to sing in public. But when I saw the jade man's Emei slightly locked, the fragrant sideburns were sad, and when he occasionally raised his arms and raised the strings, the delicate skin, the frost and snow, and the end of the ground was peerless.

At the beginning, the masses still had a voice, asking to play some more popular songs, slowly, infected by the sound of the piano, they all stopped talking, listening to her play the piano, it was the reckless man who did not understand the elegance, and also felt that Wu Niang's piano was really good, even if it was not good, that beauty was always good-looking!

"Uh...... Nice, good, ...... One more glass!" even the drunken man woke up slowly, shaking his head with the rhyme of the piano, and even the wine urn on his head was shaking, which was very ridiculous.

After a few soft tunes with a South Sea style, the sound of the Wu Niang piano suddenly changed.

"Zheng!Zheng!"

Wu Niang raised three times in a row, like an iron arrow off the string, and the sound of the piano rose sharply like a sky, hitting the atrium directly, and everyone present was shocked.

Wu Niang didn't know, just concentrated on playing, fingers under the Zhengzheng, even rubbing the buckle, the speed increased at double speed, the five fingers changed, the four played together, the war drums and flags, the iron horse Jingo, the armor was solemn, all of them were solemn and magnificent.

The crowd was stunned, they couldn't imagine that such a delicate woman would play such a masculine tune, just listen to her fingers fly fast, from "general order" to "point general", and then to "break the array", one song after another.

"Yes, yes, yes. ”

"Renmikoto is good!"

"What a beautiful lyre!"

The audience congratulated. On the occasion of the Warring States period, the big country and the small handle are endless, like this kind of military song, people have already listened to it well, humming like a stream, at this time listening to her sound the piano if forgetful, the artistic conception in the song is vividly played, it is simply not inferior to the contemporary first-class court musicians, and people who know the goods can't help but applaud loudly.

The sound of the piano is uncertain, the first time is the pride of thousands of horses galloping, the ambition and hunger, the latter is the yellow sand thousands of miles, the cold moon obliquely illuminates the sorrow of the uncertain river, just four strings, changing thousands of different styles, gradually, the sound of the piano is more and more high-pitched, it is actually a hidden killing atmosphere.

The rhyme of the piano is continuous, and later, the sound of the piano is just and soft, and the fusion is seamless, and the Yueqin itself has a bit of vicissitudes, and in the hands of Wu Niang, there is a long and ancient meaning in the agitation, which is not an ordinary military song, and the charm of "ambush on all sides, beacon fire and yellow sand" is only mastered deeper.

Everyone only felt that there was a flower in front of them, and in an instant, where was the piano playing, she was still a delicate red makeup, she was simply a woman with armor, she had 100,000 soldiers in her chest, she was full of spirit, and she was about to break through the battlefield on the battlefield.

"Aunt Gongsun, it's Aunt Gongsun!" a martial arts merchant called out in a low voice. Hearing the people are shocked, Gongsun Aunt is a famous female hero of martial arts, her martial arts are extremely high, and she is good at music and rhythm, often fencing in front of the enemy, the enemy knows the sound of the people, often flees without a fight, martial arts people have always regarded it as the goddess of victory, and love it. As soon as the merchant thought of the woman in the middle of the woman, he remembered the heroine.

Several guests who were close to him looked at each other and smiled when they heard his words, but they looked at each other in shock, and found that there were two lines of tears on each other's faces. It turned out that Wu Niang's piano sound was wonderful, and after listening to it for a long time, she unconsciously shed tears.

The sound of Wu Niangqin's piano gradually sounded, and even the guests and passers-by from several stores next door were also attracted to stand at the door and listen attentively.

Lance also listened to the music rarely, Wu Niang's piano sound, reminded him of the pride of Li Yu, who was a suitable talent, and now he only felt that the blood was boiling in his chest, and he wanted to jump up and yell and shout.

"Wait, Li Yu is very good, yes, but what does he have to do with the case in Siam City, and what is the Dongfang family. Lance woke up suddenly, remembering that there was something to be done, and he didn't care about listening to the piano, so he pulled through the snow and asked, "There are a bunch of inexplicable things, and you haven't explained what this Oriental family is, and what's going on in Siam City." ”

"What are you doing! People are playing just right, you don't have nothing to do......

Ransden was furious, and scolded, "Bastard, after all, you are the boss, I am the boss, I want you to say, you can speak quickly, listen to the smelly piano." As he spoke, he picked up the snow and dragged it to the backyard on the first floor, away from the sound of the piano, so as to ask questions, and also in case he couldn't help but rush out to listen to the piano.

"If you want to go back to listen to the piano, hurry up and finish your work. ”

Youxue pulled some of the world for him, and he settled down, and said helplessly: "This Oriental family is one of the seven major sects, and there is a way that 'treasures and rare light everywhere, leading the red sun to rise in the east', hehe, this Oriental family......"

Lance knew that this Sheter was talking and was very noisy, and if he pulled it down again, he didn't know when and what month he would get to the point, and shouted: "There is no time, who wants to listen to you, tell me the point!"

"The point, it's so boring to listen to the point, it's better to ......"

"Fuck your shit, Uncle Ben is going to commit a crime, and now I don't have time, hurry up and recruit useful things. ”

Yuxue was helpless and reluctantly began the introduction.

It turns out that in the current Wind Continent, there are seven great families that are extremely successful in business, rich and rival countries, and even surpass a prince and prince, collectively known as the Seven Great Sects, also known as the Seven Heroes. In the unique business field, the Seven Heroes have earned amazing wealth, developed family power, and at the same time, they are also well-known for their respective family martial arts, and their every move often affects the important national policies of the country where they are located.

Among them, the Oriental family uses iron smelting and casting all kinds of strange and clever instruments, and is located in a free city, with a song cloud: "Everywhere is rare and heroic, attracting the red sun to rise in the East". It is said that the ancestors of the Oriental family had dwarf blood, and enjoyed a good reputation for forging all kinds of utensils, and made a fortune from this, and their descendants inherited the ancestral business, and after several generations, the Oriental family became a forging family.

On the occasion of the Warring States period, the business of building weapons is naturally a great fortune, the purebred bloodline of the Dongfang family appears from time to time, and each generation may not have the excellent ability of the ancestors, but for a long time, the Dongfang family has maintained intimate contacts with the dwarf clan, and there are six dwarf cities that were established under its wings.

Although the Dongfang family is powerful, but has always cared little about the general trend of the world, this time somehow, the news came out, there is a family of daughters, will marry outsiders, I don't know whether it is in the dowry or dowry, it is said that there is an ancient treasure "Sui Hou Zhu".

Sui Hou Zhu is an ancient pearl, as famous as He's Bi, both are priceless treasures. Since there is Sui Houzhu, the rest of the foil gifts must be priceless. When this news came out, many people with bad intentions rushed to get some cheapness.

"It stands to reason that Sui Houzhu is going to be transported back to the main fort, but to go to the main fort of the Dongfang family, Siam City is the only place to pass, so the treasure transport team will definitely pass through here, maybe someone plans to do it here, so as to save the need to enter the main fort of the Dongfang family and not get out. ”

"That's what I said. But Siam City is already considered the sphere of influence of the Oriental Powers in the end. Youxue lowered her voice and said, "Then the Oriental family is so good, if you want to swatt flies on the tiger's head in his territory, hehe! Ten lives is not enough to die." ”

"So that's what happened. Lance nodded. I remember that day after the day, the sky was already bright, Cangyue grass got up to change clothes, before leaving, left this sentence: "If it's okay, go to the free city for a walk, there is a big deal in Siam City, it's very interesting, it's okay to see." Although Lance was confused, he knew that the people of Iraq had always been wise, and there must be a meaning in saying this, so he made a long journey to the free city and waded through the troubled waters.

Lance said, "Hey, hey, it's interesting, Sui Houzhu......"

Look at so many people gathered for this, this deal must be there, but, it sounds like this Oriental family is by no means easy to deal with, most of these people can't make a deal, but they are disgraced, but what, those people should also know about this matter, so what will they think?

Well, most of them are lucky, they are planning to wait for others to make a move, and then fish in the muddy waters, to see if they can get some benefits, hehe, others can do this, why can't they themselves, just everyone fish in the muddy waters, and make a big mess.

After some training, Lance's horizons have broadened a lot, and he is a little cautious in doing things, since he is determined to participate in this matter, he must carefully evaluate his own strength. Recently, he has been forging chains, and his current martial arts are probably the level between trainee knights and D-level knights, and the Dongfang family is known as the seven heroes of the world, presumably there are many masters, and they must have a hard job of swords and guns, which is to hit stones with eggs, and it seems that they have to wait for others to be chaotic and rob while they are burning.

It's a pity, but I blame myself for not having enough knowledge, and I can't use good secrets. After waking up in Hangzhou that day, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he opened the step bag, which was something that the dead old man played with every day, presumably a treasure.

As a result, the cloth bag is half a handscroll, the appearance has been blurred, from the content, it seems to be some kind of martial arts secrets, but, the words and sentences inside, it seems that although there is a deep meaning, I know the words, but I don't know the meaning, and I know that this kind of superior martial arts, as long as one practice is wrong, immediately go crazy, the meridians are broken and die, so I don't dare to mess around.

With the dead old man's usual attention to this secret book, the things recorded in it must be extraordinary, and he only hated himself for not having relevant knowledge, and he couldn't ask people for advice on such secrets, so he had to put the secret book aside and sigh at it.

"If you practice the kung fu on the secret book, how can you use it so embarrassingly today, that dead old man, keep good kung fu and don't teach, talk about some inexplicable things, and lie to me that it is peerless martial arts, it is simply delaying Uncle Ben's youth!"

Thinking of the bitterness of growing up in the mountains, Lance was immediately full of unhappiness. From childhood to adulthood, every time the dead old man had a whim, he summoned him to him and said, "Hey, I think that forging chains like this should be able to practice peerless martial arts, you go and try it", and then it was a bunch of unimaginable tortures, and he was completely dead and alive.

When the time to endure hardship, of course, it is to disobey a good fight, but there is also the idea of "practicing peerless martial arts, you can be majestic, do whatever you want", how to think, after going down the mountain and the knight, you can not get up on the ground without two or three moves, the so-called peerless martial arts, is not as good as some triangular cats' fists and feet.

Thinking of this, Lance sighed, very interested, if these "peerless martial arts" are deceitful, then the dead old man is just an old liar who has made a fortune, then, that secret book is probably just a few worthless tricks, even if it is really practiced, what can it be?

"Boss, when you're done, you can go back, you don't listen to such a good piano, and you don't see such a beautiful person, don't you think it's really ......" After telling the allusion, Youxue began to mumble.

"Alright, alright, go listen. Lance waved his hand, and was about to speak, when there was a commotion outside, and there was a faint sound of gongs and bamboos, which gradually approached from a distance, as if some team was coming.

"Huh!"

"What is it?"

Lance and Youxue glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Is it ......?"

Grab the general to go out and take a look, Wu Niangqin's song has been finished, and he is sitting quietly in a corner, drinking tea and resting, waiting for the next performance. And most of the guests were still sitting quietly, in a trance, and had not yet been able to wake up from the wonderful rhyme.

On the street outside the store, many people began to gather onlookers, waiting to see the liveliness of the procession on the street, after a while, the music gradually sounded, people cheered, only to see five hundred tall men in red, lined up in a phalanx, embroidered with the sun pattern on the placket, with an axe around their waists, riding a white horse, opening the road first, all of them looked mighty and upright, so that people were good to respect.

There are 500 men, holding all kinds of musical instruments in their hands, walking and playing on the other hand, using the joy of the wedding, plus the gongs and drums are noisy, and the crowd cheers, which makes them even more joyful.

I only heard the thunderous cheers of the crowd, mixed with two or three whispers from time to time, saying that today is just a gift back to the main castle, there is such a momentum, and on the day of the wedding, the scene does not know how grand it will be.

Lance was born in the countryside, and had never seen such a bustle, but it was very interesting to see, and his eyebrows fluttered.
