Chapter 203: You Can't Be Left
Fushou Building, this is the most famous restaurant opened by the Central Plains people in Bishui City, those businesses that are enough to affect the Central Plains of Miaojiang, I don't know how many of them are negotiated in this building.
Today, the busy Fushou Building in the past is unusually deserted, and someone has chartered the entire building to hold a banquet, but there is only one table for guests.
The thunderclouds named the Shoyun Merchant were hovering over the entire Blue Water City, roaring incessantly as a proclamation of the impending storm.
For many years, there has been a conventional rule in Bishui City, generally a force with a head and a face, if it wants to retaliate against another force endlessly, it will put on a banquet, but do not entertain guests, because these drinks and dishes are set for the dead in advance, which is a decent way of declaring war between merchants, called the Soul Banquet.
And today, the Xiangyun not only set up a mourning banquet, but also invited all the representatives of the forces with heads and faces in Bishui City.
Last night, a group of thieves actually attacked the team of the Lingyue clan in a frenzy, and more importantly, there are such characters as the young master of the Xiangyun, the murderer has not yet been determined, but the attitude of the Xiaoyun has been very clear, and he will not die.
The big guys who were invited were also watching their noses and noses, and no one came out to ask for help, although they were sure that they didn't do this crazy thing, but they couldn't be sure if it was another person here who did it, so they all tacitly kept quiet.
Presiding over this mourning banquet was Gu Xu, the big shopkeeper of the Xiangyun, and everyone respectfully called him Mr. Gu on weekdays.
Gu Xu swept the people present and raised a cup of tea: "Last night's incident will be investigated to the end, Gu Mou invited you to come today and ask for something, the thieves should be arranged in the city, and I hope you will make it convenient." β
This is said in a domineering way, just say that the thief should be able to hide in the city, in case we search your territory, you weigh how much difference between your weight and the Xiangyun number, pinch your nose and bear it.
However, because everyone knows the strength of the Xiangyun, even if they have already scolded in their hearts, they still say "must be" and "be polite".
Of course, with the Xiaoyun family alone, it is impossible to make everyone in Bishui City a head shorter, and everyone agreed so happily, mainly because the Lingyue Clan was also involved.
Even the Xiaoyun managed to save people, and none of the more than 100 clansmen in Lingyue were spared, and the big shopkeeper Bai Mo was also killed on the spot.
Today, the Lingyue clan came to the steward Qingyou, and he didn't say a word throughout the whole process, only saying at the end that Lingyue would track down the murderer with Xiao Yun.
The Soul Banquet has never been a good place to talk, and the big guys are all on pins and needles, and they can't wait to disperse quickly, so after Gu Xu and Qingyou left the table, everyone said goodbye one after another.
Qingyou and Gu Xu walked outside the building, and when they parted, he said: "There are not enough people now, Mr. Gu, if you find anything, please send someone to inform us, please." β
Gu Xu agreed: "Don't worry, Qingyou, this matter is about you and me, and Gu will do his best to investigate." β
"Thank you, Mr. Gu."
"Steward Qingyou is polite."
Seeing that Gu Xu leave, Qingyou sneered without a trace, and immediately summoned the clansman who was in charge of driving him and ordered: "I'll go out, you all be careful." β
"Brother Qingyou, wouldn't it be too dangerous for you to go out alone?" The young man said worriedly.
"Don't worry, I know it," Qingyou said indifferently, and then he whispered to the man: "You remember, if you find a beggar disciple in the city, you must keep an eye on it." β
The young man said in surprise: "Brother Qingyou, are you saying that the murderer this time is actually ......"
"Be quiet."
Qingyou glared at him, and then pretended to be mysterious: "I have found important clues, and I will be able to catch their flaws soon, you must remember not to leak the news, everything will be said when I come back." β
With that, he stopped talking nonsense with the young man and left alone.
This Qingyou naturally couldn't find any so-called "clues", after all, as the person who was secretly responsible for the response, he knew early on that it was Jinyiwei's hand, but they wanted to dump the crime of killing people on the beggar gang.
What did the big man think, Qingyou didn't have to think about it, he had now climbed to the high branch of Jinyiwei, and in addition to Bai Mo and his supporters, it was only a matter of time before he took control of the Lingyue Commercial Bank, and with the help of the imperial court, even the position of the elder was out of reach.
With this pair of visions for the future, Qingyou soon came to the agreed place outside the city, and the two adults of the Jinyi Guard were already waiting for him.
He hurriedly put away his messy thoughts, stepped forward and bowed: "I've seen two adults." β
"Well, you're here."
"Hmph, grinding."
The voice of one of them made Qingyou a little unfamiliar, and Qingyou said in a panic: "Today, Gu Xu of the Xiangyun has set up a mourning banquet, and the villain is also invited, so he came late, and asked the two adults to forgive their sins." β
These two brocade guards were Bian Guang and Ying Wuxian, and when they heard the name of the Xiaoyun, they looked at each other without a trace, and then Ying Wuxian said, "This time, I will spare you and come with us." β
"Yes, thank you, sir." Qingyou wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hurriedly followed Ying Wuxian.
The three of them galloped all the way to a wilderness, and Bian Guang found a hidden place to hide, and Ying Wuxian took Qingyou to hide his body in another place.
Just when Qingyou was confused, a group of people came not far away, looking at his dress, it seemed to be a member of the beggar gang, and before he could figure out the situation, Bian Guang came out of the shadows.
"Elder beware!"
A beggar disciple saw Bian Guang who was killing with a sword, and hurriedly reminded him.
There were two elders of the beggar gang who were the leaders, and one of them stared at him, turned around and punched him, and smashed his fist like a copper hammer on the sword body, not only did not leave half a trace of blood, but also pushed Bian Guang out a few feet.
"The one who makes the sword? Hmph, it seems that it's you, and with this little ability, you dare to provoke my beggars, and you will die! The elder glanced at the sword in his hand, shouted and punched it.
At this time, the other elder was not in a hurry to make a move, because he saw that there was no upper hand in Guang.
"Don't be ashamed." Bian Guang sneered, and played a sword flower to attack again.
The two fought together, relying on the sharp weapons, Bian Guang attacked again and again, but unfortunately he was not good at using swords, the elders of the beggar gang used both fists and feet, and they danced wildly and beat the tiger, and soon suppressed him in turn.
This is Chaotian Gong, the martial arts of the beggar gang are mostly about a "from the outside to the inside", and the martial arts practiced by the disciples are also mainly external skills, and this elder is the best among them, and the kung fu on the fists and feet is extremely strong.
Bian Guang was already a little stumbling at the moment, and Ying Wuxian knew that it was time to make a move, and if he continued to fight, he would not be able to hide the flaws in his swordsmanship.
He said to Qingyou beside him, "I'll stop that other Beggar Gang Elder in a while, and you'll take the opportunity to use Gu Technique to sneak attack, you know?" β
"The villain understands."
Qingyou nodded again and again, Ying Wuxian found the right time to suddenly kill, and stabbed the elder of the beggar gang who was fighting with Bian Guang with his sword.
"Elder Wu be careful!" The other beggar gang elder Quan Elder changed his expression, and flew up and kicked away the sword that should be stabbed by Wu Wu.
Ying Wuxian also took advantage of the situation, pretended to take a step back, and fought with all the elders.
His swordsmanship opened and closed widely, slashing down in three or two with infinite power, and a trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the whole elder, how could he think that this person was using the sword as a knife.
However, when facing the enemy, where is there so much spare time to think about these, this whole elder is also using mixed skills, and the combination of fists and feet and Ying Wuxian are also considered to be high and low with each other.
At this time, Qingyou finally found the opportunity to rush out with an arrow, pinching a finger in his hand, and quickly slapped Elder Wu's back with a palm.
The blue-green light point was accompanied by a fierce palm wind, and Elder Wu happened to be dragged by Bian Guang head-on, and this palm directly hit him.
"Elder Wu!"
"The thief will hurt people in the back!"
The whole elder over there saw that he was anxious in his eyes, and hurriedly used all his strength to repel Ying Wuxian, who accepted it when he saw it, and directly retreated with strength.
"Let's go!"
Seeing that Qingyou had succeeded, Bian Guang no longer acted, he took the sword and flew the blue-faced Elder Wu with a strong force, and retreated with Ying Wuxian.
The beggar disciples were angry, and they were about to chase but were stopped by the whole elder: "Don't chase it!" Be careful to turn the tiger away from the mountain! Take Elder Wu back to heal first! β
Seeing that Elder Wu's condition was deteriorating rapidly, several people did not dare to delay, and immediately set him up and withdrew towards Bishui City.
On the other side, Bian Guang and Ying Wuxian, who successfully escaped, did not directly detour back to Bishui City, but came to the official road to stop.
Qingyou stepped forward with a nervous expression, and asked worriedly, "My lord, the villain has already plotted against him with the Chasing Fate Gu, why don't you take the opportunity to take the life of the elder of the beggar gang?" β
"There's no need."
Bian Guang and Ying Wuxian secretly exchanged glances, and the latter suddenly used his eight success forces and slammed his palm on the unsuspecting Qingyou, instantly breaking the meridians of half of the opponent's body.
Qingyou's body flew upside down like a kite with a broken string, and fell on the official road and stained the snow red, he looked up in horror: "My lord, why?!" The Lord promised meββ! β
"The Lingyue Clan treats you well, but you seek glory for the betrayal, today you can betray the Lingyue Clan for your powerful position, and tomorrow you can betray my Jinyiwei for your life, now you have no use value, why should you keep you."
Bian Guang sneered, made up for that Qingyou, cut off his vitality, and saw that his head was crooked and completely out of breath, so the two left quickly.
