"Hey, it's gone!" Su Xiaolu took a big bite of the porridge and sat down at my table: "This Yang Mosheng looks polite, do you think he is really meticulous?" ”

I took my last sip of soup: "Like, not like." ”

"How?"

I shook my head: "How do I know?" It's not all about Xiao Mu's orders. He calculated that he would rent my family's house, and it just so happened that Second Brother Song led Yang Mosheng here. You say, he is not a fine worker, who is? ”

"Heh, what's your inference called?"

I moved a box of tofu to the back kitchen, set the table in the corner where the old man was telling the story, put the remaining tofu and two buckets of bean curd, and the bowl and spoon were ready.

Ah Wu came over and said to Nunu: "Jianghu, you guys go get busy with business." I'll sell these for you by the way. ”

I was stunned: "What are you busy with?" ”

"Oh, look at me, I've almost forgotten what I'm talking about." Su Xiaolu patted his head: "Let's go, Xiao Mu said, today we will gather the main characters of our Tianyan secret agents, and everyone will get to know each other, so that they can cooperate with each other today." ”

I glanced at the empty guest hall: "Gather? Right now? ”

"Well, Xiao Mu issued a notice on the day Mu Niangzi chose a husband, and Liu Jiabao and I were responsible for delivering the news.

I haven't seen you sell tofu in the past few days, but I heard the fifth brother say that it was because the eldest mother was injured. Originally, I was going to go to your house to deliver a message and visit my aunt by the way, but I found that someone was secretly staring at you, so I had to drag it all the time.

I calculated, it's just half a month today, and my aunt is basically healed, and you're about to start doing things, so come here early to have a look. I didn't expect it to be counted. ”

"Where?" I looked around, wondering if the person staring at me was still there.

"Go to my house." Su Xiaolu's face was full of pride.

I was shocked: "Your home? That ruined temple! ”

"Well, that's the quietest place in Xiangzhou City, and no one will disturb you. I'll be waiting for you at the front corner, and you can go out through the back door of the inn. ”

Ah Wu went to the door and looked: "That's right, let's go through the back door." I don't know if the stalking is still there, or it's better to be careful. ”

I crept out the back door, as they said, only to see that the snow was getting denser, and the streets were silent. met with Su Xiaolu and ran to the ruined temple where he lived, and the ground was already white.

The ruined temple in front of me seems to have changed a little, the sign of the lintel has been removed, and even the temple door has been changed. Pushing open the courtyard gate, several blue-tiled adobe houses are like dreams in the snowflakes.

"Hehe, after helping your family build a new house, I thought that my house was too broken, so I also borrowed some money from Mrs. Mu to repair several walls that were about to fall and build tiles, so that the children could live with peace of mind."

Hearing Su Xiaolu say this, I felt extremely guilty in my heart. For him as a friend, I have always cared too little about him. He took care of helping my family build a new house, but I didn't think about improving his life and his group of children, only knowing that he would go to the Jianghu Inn every night to pack leftovers, and occasionally go door-to-door to collect people's old clothes, so I thought they were all free of food and clothing.

Su Xiaolu walked forward with a big grin, hugging the children who rushed out to greet him, and he was peaceful.

"Okay, you two are older, be obedient, take your younger brothers and sisters to the fire in the room, and I have some friends in the Buddha hall to discuss important matters. Do you hear that? ”

"yes, okay."

Seeing that the children returned to the room, Su Xiaolu led me to the Buddhist hall, the hall inside was very large, three Buddha statues stood in front, the paint around the body had already fallen off, surrounded by spider silk, and it was impossible to tell which way it was a fairy. The incense case in front of the Buddha has long been gone, the incense burner tilted to the ground, and a mouse came out to look at us, and escaped without a trace.

"I still roughly cleaned up, Xiao Mu said that there should be no big movement here, and the scene of the broken temple should be retained, so these walls have not been repaired, hehe. I'm afraid that the leak will freeze you, so I found a straw to plug it yesterday. Brother Jianghu, what do you think? Why don't we raise a fire in the middle of this? ”

"I'll help you."

We found an iron pot and placed it in the middle of the Buddhist hall, and brought some firewood to light it, and the room instantly warmed up, and even the light brightened a little.

"It's snowing, sir, quick, over here!"

Hearing the familiar voice, I went up to take a look, it turned out to be Liu Jiabao, the young owner of Yuelai Restaurant, who patted the snow on his body and stepped into the house. followed by Sun Chenxian, helping Fu Bo into the house together. After that, he was a scholar in cloth, and he looked a little familiar.

"Yo, Brother Jianghu, Su Xiaothief, you guys are really early!" Liu Jiabao had hot air in his mouth and his face was full of excitement.

"Oh, morning." I smiled: "Fu Bo, I heard that the fifth brother said that you were still asleep, but I didn't expect you to come too." ”

"Hehe, Qin Cha commanded, how dare not come. I'm going to call you all the way, but I'm afraid that there will be too many people and attract attention. Fauber said, a smile on his chubby face.

The scholar took a step forward and saluted: "In the lower direction of Wenbo, it is the teacher of Xiangzhou Academy......"

"Oh, he's my vice-captain, and he's a rich five-car scholar, and he's only eight high!" Su Xiaolu interrupted him and showed off to me.

"Where, Brother Su praised, I'm just a scholar who has failed the list, guarding the academy, teaching, and eating." Xiang Wenbo said modestly.

It turned out that he was Xiang Wenbo, and I smiled: "I have heard Liu Jiabao mention Mr. for a long time, and I have admired him for a long time." ”

"The bean curd made by the Jianghu brothers is soft and glutinous and sweet, melts in the mouth, it is really the best in the world, I was fortunate to taste it twice, and I still miss it very much."

Xiang Wenbo boasted to me, this is a recognition of my craftsmanship, although it is a bit exaggerated, but it is very comfortable to listen to. It seems that he is not a nerd either, no wonder Mu Niangzi will give him a purse.

"Okay, sir, you like to eat, I'll give you enough to eat when you get back to the inn in a moment." Liu Jiabao said with a smile, and Sun Chenxian couldn't help but laugh.

"Excuse me, excuse me, are you waiting for Xiao Mu here?" There was a knock on the door, and another scholar by the door asked carefully, and when he saw Xiang Wenbo, he suddenly showed a smile: "Brother Xiang, you ...... You're also a secret agent? ”

"Hehe, I didn't expect Brother Li to be too!"

"Oh, Fubo, Chenxian...... You guys...... Aren't you selling tofu at the door of the Jianghu Inn? In Xia Li Qingquan, this is polite. ”

Li Qingquan? My mind was spinning, the deputy captain of the Mao team, seemed to be very good at painting, and often went to Liao's Wenzhai to sell paintings for a living.

"Huh——— is this it?"

"I guess so. There is such a dilapidated temple within a radius of several miles. ”

Someone outside had arrived again, and it seemed to be riding a horse.

After a while, the four of them stepped into the house.

"Jia Bao'er, you kid came early!" Quankang was still holding a horsewhip in his hand, and he looked at Lin Shu and smiled: "I just said to leave early, you still have to eat two glasses of wine to warm up your body first." ”

The West City Gate guards Quankang, the captain of the Xu team, Lin Shu of the Shunfeng Dart Bureau, and the captain of the ugly team, I know these two people. There are also two people who reported their homes, and I learned that one is the shopkeeper of the Baokang County Teahouse, Song Yi, the deputy captain of the ugly team, and the other is the deputy captain of the Yin team.

Lin Shu and Quan Kang had just warmed their hands by the fire, and suddenly their faces tightened, and they walked towards the door together.

I know that for those of them who know martial arts, their hearing is often better than that of ordinary people, and it is estimated that they have heard some movement.

"Five people came, all on horseback." Lin Shu said, came to the gate of the courtyard, and looked into the distance.

I followed along, and saw that there was chaos between heaven and earth, as if I heard the sound of horses' hooves, but I could see how many people there were.

When they stopped at the gate of the courtyard, I counted them, and I couldn't help but be in awe of this dart master, he was right, there were really five people!

"Master, senior brother, Sister Lan, I can look forward to you." Liu Jiabao came to my side, and glanced at the few people who were tying their horses, and the whole person almost jumped up.

The woman in blue lifted the hat on her head, trotted a few steps, touched Liu Jiabao's head with one hand, and her handsome and ruddy face was also overjoyed: "Jiabao? Why are you here? Don't...... You're also a secret agent? ”

"That's it." Liu Jiabao became proud, and pushed away the hand of the woman in blue: "Ouch, Sister Lan, I'm too old, a man's head, a woman's waist, I can't touch it." ”

"Why can't you touch it? I just touched it, what's the matter? The woman in blue smiled, rubbed his head twice with her hand, and only grabbed Liu Jiabao's hair into a bird's nest.

"Senior brother, you don't care." Liu Jiabao straightened his hair and held his mouth.

Seeing them joking, Quankang knew that the comer was a friend or foe, so he stretched out his hand to the courtyard: "There is a fire in the house, please come inside!" ”

"Master, please first." The woman in blue took a step back and said to the cloaked man behind her.

I looked closely, and my heart tightened, and I saw that the man was wearing a gloomy iron mask, and his two eyeballs were like two blood grapes, and there were two small holes in the nose of the mask, but the lower end of the mouth was completely exposed, and the whole mouth was deformed and terrible, as if it had been burned by fire.

The young man who followed behind the woman in blue was wearing a white long jacket, a pure white cloak, and a silver-white sword.

I nodded at him, and then glanced at the man in the black suit behind him, and saw that he was also holding a knife in his hand, and his expression was a little cold.

When they entered the hospital, the last man in yellow satin slowly tied his horse, he walked to me with his head down, suddenly pulled down his hat and looked up and smiled: "Hehehe, Brother Li, do you remember me?" ”

The owner of Yongqing Inn, the captain of the Hai team, Tu Youcheng!

I was overjoyed: "Brother Tu! You're here too! ”

"Hehe, let's go, go in and say."

After Tu Youchengyi's introduction, I realized that this wave of people is not simple.

The black-clothed man with a knife was actually the county lieutenant of Yongqing County, Ling Huzhong, the captain of the Yin team, and the person who Mu Niangzi had sent a purse, but I was concentrating on selling tofu at that time, and I had no impression of him.

And the terrifying man wearing the mask is Dongfang Ying, the former owner of the famous Shenlong Villa.

I remember listening to Tu Youcheng say that more than ten years ago, he was poisoned by his twin brother Dongfang Xiong, and he was disfigured again, and he was laid down a desperate cliff, so he had to wear a mask and become a monk in Fanruo Temple, known as the faceless master. Fortunately, Qincha found out about this, so that he was wronged, and in order to repay Qincha's great kindness, he volunteered to become the vice captain of the Hai team.
