Chapter 129: The Tavern Attacked
For Zhu Di, Wu Pingwen naturally knows him. A few years ago, in order to avenge Zheng Tianxing, he pursued Yin Yunming and chased him all the way to the Wei Mansion in Nanjing. At that time, because he didn't see Yin Yunming, who made him hate, he was so angry that he accidentally injured a child who was only seven or eight years old. Not to mention whether the child is innocent or not, but harming the old and young, women and children, in Wu Pingwen's moral standards, these are all things he can't tolerate. Thanks to Zhu Di's efforts to save him at that time, otherwise the child would definitely die, which would make him regret it for life. Immediately afterwards, he knew that the person who helped him make up for his mistakes was still the current fourth prince, and he couldn't help but be even more moved, because in his eyes, the nobles were a group of guys who only thought about their own interests and didn't care about the lives of others, so they began to inexplicably feel great gratitude to His Royal Highness King Yan.
At this time, the only powerful person who had a good impression of him had already arrived outside the tavern, and Xiao Er had already taken the horses of the two and bolted them to the stake next to Wu Pingwen's horse.
I don't know why, Wu Pingwen's heartbeat actually began to speed up, while slowly drinking wine, while waiting for the two of them to walk in, who knew that after waiting for a long time, he couldn't hear the footsteps of people coming in, and when he looked back, it turned out that the weather was good, and the shopkeeper of this tavern had let people set up a pergola outside, and set up a few tables to accommodate more guests, and the master and the two of them sat down outside the door.
Really, I want to see him a few more times, and it would be nice if I could say thank you
Wu Pingwen muttered in his heart.
I have the heart to go out and sit opposite Zhu Di and chat with him, but as a prince, will he regard himself as a suspicious character? And even if it's just an ordinary person, appearing in front of someone you don't know so rashly will inevitably scare people.
By the way, will he still remember me? Wu Pingwen began to dwell on this problem again, if he didn't remember, it was indeed a little embarrassing to go and greet him by himself, but if he had to remember, he looked like a fierce god at that time, and he also injured a lot of his subordinates, and it would be even more embarrassing to see him.
was so entangled and unable to make a decision, Wu Pingwen almost felt that his head was going to get bigger. It's a coincidence, he doesn't have to worry about it anymore, and the opportunity is just like this.
By this time, it was approaching noon, and it was almost time to eat, and the tavern business began to bustle, and many people who passed by would mostly stop and come in to rest and have a bite to eat.
At this time, five horses came from the west side of the road, and the people on the horses knew at a glance that they were all martial artists, and each of them was tall and had sharp swords.
The five men came close in an instant, and looked as if they were about to cross over, but one of them suddenly grabbed the reins of his horse, turned around, and looked at the three horses tied to the stakes by the roadside.
The other four people also stopped with the horses, and one of the people in green shirts looked at the person in front of him with questioning eyes, only to see that the man urged the horse to get close to him and whispered something, and the man in green shirts asked in a low voice,
"Can you see that? Are you sure you can't go wrong? ”
"There's no wrong wrong thing, I've seen him I don't know how many times."
The man nodded confidently.
The man in green shirt sneered and said,
"That's great, it doesn't take much effort to get there."
As he spoke, he turned back with the other four people, got off the horse, came directly to the three horses, looked carefully for a while, and then pointed to the white dragon horse of Zhu Di in the middle, and asked in a loud voice,
"Excuse me, whose horse does this horse belong to?!"
Seeing that they were not good, Zheng He, who was accompanying Zhu Di, replied first,
"Yes, is there anything wrong with you?"
"Yours?"
The man in the green shirt looked him up and down a few times, and sneered again,
"No, how could this be yours."
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Zhu Di, who was sitting opposite Zheng He, and immediately, a cold light flashed in his eyes,
"I think the owner of this horse should be this son, right?"
"I wonder what you're doing?"
Zhu Di sat there, unmoving, and asked coldly.
The man in the green shirt smiled slightly,
"I don't know if you can sell me the horse that I like?"
"Oh, really?"
Zhu Di looked at a few of them and said,
"No, how can I sell my horse to you."
"Don't refuse so quickly, it may be that Childe thinks it is inconvenient to negotiate business in front of so many people, why don't we talk about it in a quiet place?"
The man in the green shirt smiled with obvious contempt, and the look in his eyes flashed as if the person in front of him was already in his pocket.
Zhu Di was extremely disgusted with his eyes, frowned slightly, and immediately said,
"I'm afraid you're not interested in my horse, what is the purpose, you might as well say it directly, aren't you tired of beating around the bush!"
"Childe is really fast-talking, I admire it."
The man in the green shirt smiled and said,
"Okay, the purpose of the five of us brothers is to invite Childe to come with us."
"It's a joke, I don't know you, why do I want to go with you?"
After speaking, Zhu Di twisted his head and stopped looking at them.
The man in the green shirt sneered,
"If the son really refuses to taste his face, then he can only use strength in the next, not to mention, we don't necessarily have to take you away alive, as long as we take your life, we can be regarded as achieving the goal!"
Before the words fell, the man had already come to Zhu Di with lightning speed, and a steel knife that appeared in his hand at some point instantly pointed at his throat.
However, at the moment when the tip of the knife was less than a foot away from Zhu Di, a narrow sword held it steadily. The man in the green shirt was stunned, but when he looked at it, it turned out to be the young man standing next to Zhu Di.
It's just a child, how much ability can he have
As soon as the man in green shirt smoothed the knife and wiped it along the blade, he approached Zheng He, but he saw Zheng He seeing his offensive and retreating diagonally, his body turned sharply, and he led him to the other side, making him move away from Zhu Di in an instant.
Seeing that the other party's attitude was calm, his posture was calm, and he did not have the slightest panic in the face of a strong enemy, the man in green shirt was suddenly surprised, turned around and re-examined the young man in front of him, and asked,
"What kind of sect is the little brother from?"
"It's just a subordinate."
It sounded and spoke very humblely, but the tone was completely disdainful of talking to him, and there was even more hostility and disgust in his eyes.
may have been angered by Zheng He's eyes, and the man in the green shirt no longer answered, with a single swing of the knife, a "green dragon stirring the water" attacked again, Zheng He's long sword closed slightly, and blocked the opponent's offensive with the momentum of "holding the moon in his arms", stepping on all directions, rotating his body, and dexterously maneuvering with it.
From the moment the five people came to provoke, the people eating in the tavern had been alarmed, and at this time, seeing that they were really fighting with swords, they all got up and squeezed to the door to watch, and the people under the pergola outside the door were scattered in all directions.
Wu Pingwen also stood in front of the door of the tavern at this time, and he had planned to make a move when he saw the man in green shirt stabbing Zhu Di with a knife just now, but when he found that the young man had already taken action, he stopped again, because he found that the young man's skills were so fast enough to prevent the other party from attacking, and he really wanted to see what level the little guards beside His Royal Highness King Yan were. 2k reading web
