Lifting the sword into the rivers and lakes Chapter 51 In Liangzhou Lane
Lao Li has been wandering on the rivers and lakes for many years, what kind of people have never been seen, and the instant change in the demeanor of the old man and his wife who sell vegetables is in full view of Lao Li.
Seeing that the old couple gradually disappeared into the crowd, Lao Li was aroused by the abnormality of the two people, put away the wine bag, and was afraid that Gu Xiaoxun would not be able to worry about him, so he took out the firewood knife he carried with him and carved a small mark at the base of the wall, and then got up and walked quickly to follow the old couple selling vegetables.
The Yuan Day Festival is approaching, and the streets are crowded with people. Lao Li quickly squeezed through the crowd, and finally found the old man and his wife selling vegetables. The two of them are still the old man carrying the burden in front, and the old woman is trembling and holding the flat burden in the back, walking in the crowd.
Lao Li saw that he found these two figures, so he slowed down his pace. Just as Lao Li was slowly following the two people in front of him, he saw that the old woman who had been trembling suddenly turned her head sideways, and her eyes looked in her direction.
Lao Li hurriedly turned sideways and turned to the stall selling things on the side, not letting the old woman's afterglow sweep to him.
"Uncle, what do you like, pick whatever you like, this is made of fine bamboo and oiled paper, no matter whether it snows or rains, you can't get wet!" The peddler saw Lao Li tilting his head and looking at his stall, thinking that business was coming, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to introduce.
Absentmindedly flipped through it, Lao Li didn't hear the vendor introducing his things diligently, and only glanced at the old woman who stood up and looked back with his spare eyes.
Seeing the old woman standing in place, she looked back and swept around the crowd behind her, but found nothing abnormal, the corners of her mouth moved slightly, and the old couple continued to walk forward.
Only then did Lao Li hear the vendor's whisper: "I don't buy it, and I still occupy a place and hinder me from doing business." ”
Not wanting to talk too much to the hawker to arouse the old couple's idea, Lao Li took out a few copper plates, threw them to the hawker, picked up a hat casually, put it on his head, and continued to pursue it along the place where the old woman disappeared.
After another long search, Lao Li finally found the old couple at the entrance of an inconspicuous alley. Seeing them walk into the deep box, Lao Li hurriedly pushed aside the bustling crowd around him and walked to the mouth of the alley.
The festival is approaching, and there is a lot of noise everywhere in Liangzhou City, but this alley is unusually quiet, and even this alley is rarely passed. If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, Lao Li hesitated at the entrance of the alley, whether to follow up. At this moment, Lao Li heard a slight noise behind him. Listening carefully, it was indeed coming at him, and under vigilance, he pulled out the firewood knife behind his waist, turned around, and grabbed one person with one hand, and the firewood knife followed.
The blade of the firewood knife touched the man's throat, and Lao Li saw the man's face clearly, it was the vendor who sold his hat. At this moment, the hawker was held to his throat by the blade of the firewood knife, trembling, "ding" several times, and a few loose coins fell to the ground.
"What are you doing with me?" Lao Li did not relax his vigilance, still holding the vein of the vendor who sold clothes and hats with one hand, and holding a firewood knife against his throat with the other.
The peddler was so frightened that his face was bloodless at the moment, and he just kept shaking. I saw the terrible scar on Lao Li's face, and as soon as my feet were weak, I was about to collapse to the ground.
Seeing the hawker's gesture, Lao Li loosened the firewood knife against his throat slightly, but he still repeated and asked, "What are you doing with me?" “
The peddler saw that the firewood knife in his throat had left a little, and then he said tremblingly: "Big.. Uncle,,I bought the villain.. Fight.. Hat, no. Didn't look for money.. The villain chased all the way to the uncle.. Send. ”
Lao Li saw the hawker's frightened expression, not like a disguise, and used his internal force to put it into the hawker's body, perceiving that the hawker's body was mixed with breath, his breathing was chaotic, and he really didn't know martial arts, and glanced at a few loose coins scattered on the ground, and then put his heart down and said: "Don't follow me anymore, the money on the ground is the compensation money that I scared you, pick up the money, and leave quickly." ”
Seeing a life-saving peddler, he could still take care of the reward all over the ground, although his legs and feet were weak, but he still escaped from the alley with a crawl.
Seeing that the peddler had fled far away, Lao Li turned around and looked at the quiet alley. After a while, Lao Li was still unable to resist the drive of curiosity, and after leaving a mark at the entrance of the alley, Lao Li slowly stepped into the alley.
Compared with the noise on the street, this alley is really much quieter, so that Lao Li stepped into it, and the thick snow under his feet told Lao Li that this alley must have been rarely visited, so there will be such a thick snow, stepping on the snow 'cooing' muffled sound, and thinking that he was back to the mountain of no return.
The more Lao Li walked, the more frightened he became, and the more doubts he had in his heart. Until I walked to the end of this alley, the end was under the city wall of Liangzhou City, both sides of this alley were high cyan brick walls, and there was no trace of relay on the brick wall, and the snow was so deep that there were no footprints. I did see it with my own eyes, the old couple selling vegetables walked into this alley, no matter how fast the two old men walked, it was impossible for them to disappear into this alley without leaving a trace.
It's not good, Lao Li said secretly in his heart. turned around suddenly, but saw the old man and his wife who were selling vegetables a few feet behind him, looking at him coldly.
Especially the old woman, who was completely out of place, was touched by the trembling old man carried by Xue Hu, and was replaced by a cold and fierce killing intent. And behind this old man and old woman, there were several black-clothed men with only their eyes and masked faces, all holding swords, staring at themselves silently.
Lao Li became more and more frightened, he walked in this alley for a long time, but he didn't find anyone behind him, which shows that the high martial arts of these people are by no means comparable to him alone.
What surprised Lao Li even more was that this group of people was separated, and one person came out of it, it was the vendor who sold him a hat that he let go, and the hawker was no longer trembling with his own firewood knife against his throat at the moment, and walked to the old man and his wife with a smile on his face.
"Mushrooms, empty or phased, eat and put aside or cold?" The vendor said with a smile.
Lao Li has been wandering in the rivers and lakes for many years, and he knows that the other party is using the black words of the rivers and lakes to find out what his identity is, whether he is an insider or a layman, and whether he is an insider or an officer or an officer in the rivers and lakes.
"Lao Hai was curious for a while, and he asked for forgiveness for his sins." Lao Li knew that since the other party had asked, he would not do it easily, so he used the black language of the rivers and lakes to make a compensatory first.
The peddler saw that Lao Li said a few words with an incision, and reported that he was not an officer or soldier at the door, staring at Lao Li's face and looking at it, it didn't seem like the person sent by him, but that group of people was no longer what it was back then, and he still couldn't be careless. So the peddler turned around and whispered a few words to the people behind him.
The old man, the old woman and several people behind him listened to the hawker's mouth, their faces became even colder, and the blades in their hands were quietly clenched.
The peddler smiled: "Since Brother Li walks the rivers and lakes, he naturally knows that we who walk the rivers and lakes have some scruples. This time it's not against Brother Li, so please don't be surprised. ”
Lao Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but after listening to the hawker speak again, the nerves that had been loosened immediately tightened.
"Even if you are a person who walks the rivers and lakes, you should know that you don't care about this idle matter, but when I sent the money to Brother Li, it can be regarded as a reminder to you." The peddler spoke again, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Brother Li's blind follower of my people, if he doesn't have a plan, how can I believe it? What did the shakusenblade send you to do? ”
Lao Li really wanted to slap himself twice at the moment, and honestly accompanied the young master and Miss Lin'er to go shopping, but he wanted to join in the excitement because of his curiosity.
After listening to the hawker's words, Lao Li knew that even if he told the truth, he was curious, and if he came to take a look, the other party would not believe it, but now, even if the other party didn't believe it, he could only say it. What's more, the name he mentioned, he had never heard of before.
He could only clench his fists and said: "Listening to Your Excellency's tone, it should be the head of these brothers, Lao Li is really sorry for disturbing you this time, but sometimes it is a coincidence." I was drinking and basking in the sun on the street, and when I saw the second elder telling a story to a little girl, I was curious and eavesdropped on a few words, and then I saw that the second elder was not like a mortal, so I was curious for a while, and came to take a look. I have not heard of the people you have just mentioned, nor have they been sent by others. ”
The peddler was stunned for a moment, this man thought that he was a trader who collected money and did things on the rivers and lakes. Looking at his appearance, he is not a person with a thousand blades, so it is better to be cautious just in case.
I only heard the hawker laugh and said, "I'm afraid that Brother Li won't believe what he said, right?" ”
"What I said is true, if you don't believe it, then there is no way." When Lao Li was wandering the rivers and lakes, he was not a good-tempered person, he explained the truth by himself, but the other party was still aggressive, and Lao Li's fiery temper when he broke into the rivers and lakes was also hooked by this peddler.
"Then don't blame me, brother Li, if my subordinates make a move, I'm afraid that it won't work without seeing blood, if you want to say it now, it's still too late." The peddler still said to Lao Li with a smile on his face.
Lao Li was completely enraged by this peddler, and said: "What do you say, just a few of you, you can still stop me, let's see the real chapter." ”
After speaking, Lao Li held the firewood knife in his hand and put on a posture.
Seeing Lao Li's posture of holding the firewood knife tightly, the peddler took the old man and the old woman to retreat a few steps, and the group of masked people behind him, each holding a blade, slowly moved forward and forced Lao Li.
——
said that Gu Xiao was pulled by Lin'er and into the crowd with his sleeves, Lin'er was small and scurried left and right in this crowd, but Gu Xiao, who was pulled by his sleeves, suffered a lot.
After a while, Gu Xiao was rubbed into a 'flower-faced cat', and it wasn't until Lin'er saw a stall of a noodle kneader that he stopped.
Looking at Gu Xiao, who had become a 'flower-faced cat' behind him, Lin'er's depression was completely swept away. Her eyes turned into a crescent moon with a smile, and Lin'er said: "What's the matter, isn't our Gu Daxia, who is a strong martial artist, not a light skill, how did he become like this?" After getting along for many days, Lin'er often found an opportunity to tease Gu Xiao a few words.
"Hey, I saw that you were in a bad mood, and I wanted to help you change your mood, so I just made a few jokes, why do you still hold a grudge." Gu Xiao knew that this Lin'er was because he joked about calling her a 'rich man', and he would also seize an opportunity to make fun of himself, so he replied with a wry smile.
Lin'er pretended to be aggrieved and said: "Yes, yes, Gu Daxia, the little woman buys a noodle for the hero, and compensates the hero, okay?" ”
Without waiting for Gu Xiao to reply, he turned his head and threw a few copper plates on the stall of the noodle kneader, and said, "Boss, pinch one for this little brother." ”
The boss who got the money was quick with his hands and feet, looked at Gu Xiao's appearance carefully, took out some glutinous rice flour, and mixed it with some color paraffin. Fingers pinch, rub, knead, and then use the small bamboo knife in the hand dexterously point, cut, carve, draw, not long after, a handsome young man wearing a long shirt, wearing a big coat appeared in the hands of the boss.
Taking over the noodle man who looked like Gu Xiao, the girl squinted her eyes and looked at the 'flower-faced cat' Gu Xiao, looked at the noodle man for a moment, and said with a smile: "Yes, it's really similar, but if you add this cat whisker on the face, it's even more like, hahaha." ”
Liangzhou City, in the street.
The girl laughs like a April day, and the boy sighs that the sun and the moon are idle,
The two of them gradually merged with the atmosphere of the festival.
