The two walked along another alley, and Xie Zhiyun saw a three-story blue-tiled and white-walled pavilion at the end of the alley.

The guise of weaving and embroidering peony flowers is swaying in the air, and the Huanlou is covered with all kinds of yarn flowers, which are gorgeous and colorful.

Xie Zhiyun narrowed his eyes and saw the word peony written on the banner.

The halberd paced with his hands in his hand, walked side by side with her, and said, "This place is called the Peony Building, named after its most famous Yao Huang wine and Wei Zi wine, and the rest of the cakes made of flowers, you should love it." ”

"I've heard of the Peony Building, and Ying Yue once bought its peony cakes and poria cakes."

Xie Zhiyun said: "I never thought that the shop was so delicate and public, no wonder the business is good." ”

The halberd was about to speak, when suddenly a masked man appeared in the alley in front of him.

He seemed to be dodging something, running forward with his head bored, and he didn't even care about helping the grandma who hit him, just blindly ran wildly.

He was followed by another gray-haired old man.

The old man was on crutches, limping forward, shouting hoarsely as he chased: "Catch him, he is a bandit!" ”

The old man apparently had little strength left, his voice hoarse, his steps staggering, and he didn't run a few steps before he fell to the ground, letting the tears slide down his wrinkled old face.

"Catch him, catch him, he robbed me of my money."

There were few pedestrians in this alley, and as soon as the old man shouted, the robbers looked left and right, and suddenly became vicious, and took out a dagger with a cold light from his arms.

His eyebrows were hideous: "Get out of the way, whoever stops and kills whom." ”

Xie Zhiyun was stunned on the spot.

Since she was a child, everything she has seen and heard is benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith, and she has never seen such a fierce and vicious appearance, even if Lang Huan and Yezhou Zuo have had several wars, but they have not affected the Xie family, or even affected Lang Huan, so she has almost never seen the sinister world.

The bandit was like a blazing fireball, running towards Xie Zhiyun and the halberd.

The dagger in his hand is very sharp at first glance, and the blades on both sides are chilling.

The bandit roared at the two of them: "If you don't want to die, get out of the way!" ”

Xie Zhiyun knew that she should dodge, but she stood there stunned, unable to move.

The bandit was in such a hurry that his dagger shook fiercely, as if it were about to stab the two men who stood in his way.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

At this moment, the halberd stretched out his left hand, and with only a slight force, he stopped Xie Zhiyun behind him.

He is always like a mountain, calm and calm, sheltering others from the wind and rain.

With a push of the guard's right hand on his waist, the blood-stained sword galloped out of its scabbard and headed straight for the thief's life.

In an instant, the cold light was cold.

Hearing a sour "bang" sound, the bandit was startled by the long sword, and his galloping figure shook violently, and the dagger in his hand subconsciously swung towards the long sword.

The long sword was sharp, throwing out a cold fan of cold light in the air, and the tip of the sword went straight to the bandit's face.

The thieves cocooned themselves, and made the long sword that struck them with the hilt of the sword struck into a blade.

The cold light flashed, and the bandits finally panicked.

His steps were messy, and he couldn't help but hide backwards.

But the halberd and the longsword won't give him that chance.

The halberd was as steady as Mount Tai, standing still, and with a raise of his right hand, he grasped the hilt of the long sword.

That long sword is his portable sword, and he has been following him from birth to death for seven years.

Just look at the long sword in the hand of the halberd like a silver dragon, straight to the neck of the bandit.

This time, it seems that it is really going to kill you.

The bandit was fierce, but he was still a terrible breed, he staggered under his feet, and finally stood firm with the landing point of the long sword.

He stood himself under the edge of the sword.

The cold sword was close to his neck, only paper-thick from his veins.

But in the blink of an eye, everything is settled.

The hand holding the long sword was as steady as an ancient tree, not moving at all, and the smile between his eyebrows had all disappeared, leaving only the same cold and cold light as the long sword.

"Still running?"

Xie Zhiyun heard him ask lightly.

The thief and bandit trembled, but the upper body did not move, as long as he moved, the blood would burst open, and blood would be splashed on the spot.

The bandits were finally scared.

"Lang Jun spares his life, I, I won't run away."

The halberd didn't look at him, he looked behind him wrongly, and saw the old man who was being helped by a passerby.

"Uncle, what did this bandit do?"

The old man was almost out of breath, he coughed twice, and thanked the halberd first.

"Thank you Lang Jun for your help, this thief broke into my house and stole the money used to buy medicine for the child at home, and after stealing, it was not enough, and even smashed my family's rice tank."

As the old man said this, he became more and more excited, and he couldn't stand steadily, so he sat directly on the ground and coughed.

"Although there is only a bottom of rice and grain left, we can't spoil the grain."

The old man couldn't help crying again.

Xie Zhiyun had recovered her spirit at this moment, she walked out from behind the halberd and comforted the old man: "The old man doesn't have to mind, this person has been caught, and after the government interrogation, he will be able to return the money of the old man's family, if he can find his house, he will be doubled and will return the damaged family property." ”

The old man was originally full of sadness, but now that the thief was caught, and he was persuaded by good words, he couldn't help but raise his hazy presbyopia eyes and look at Xie Zhiyun and the halberd.

"Thank you two kind people, you two kind-hearted people will be rewarded."

Because the West Market is a commercial street, there have always been yacha patrols, and as soon as there was a disturbance here, some yacha heard the movement and rushed here.

At this time, the yacha also happened to arrive.

The yacha naturally knew the halberd, and when he saw that it was him, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Young General." ”

As soon as the nearby pedestrians heard this title, they immediately reacted, and the old man cried like a tearful man: "It's a young general!" ”

He cried: "The young general is merciful and brave, thank you to the young general." ”

"Thank you, Major General, for saving your life." Pedestrians saluted.

When the halberd saw that the people were going to kneel and kowtow to him, the calm slaughter dispersed overnight, and he hurriedly supported the left and right, preventing them from making a big salute here.

"It's all folks, why bother to see outside," the voice of the halberd echoed in the alley, "This is just a matter of the halberd's business, don't kill me, folks." ”

This kind of scene is also the first time Xie Zhiyun has seen it.

She didn't amuse the halberd on the side, but came up to help the people with him.

It was only a matter of duty to intercept the bandits and help the people, but the thanks after that were endless, and it took two hours to finally send these pedestrians away.

The halberd said to the yacha: "This thief must be interrogated well, Qingtian broke into the door during the day, I am afraid that it is not a person who has such courage, there must be other comrades behind him, and the dagger in his hand must also be checked to see where it is imitated." ”

Yacha arched his hand and said solemnly: "Yes, the young general can rest assured, as soon as there is a result, he will immediately report to the public mansion." ”

By the time this matter was completely done, all the guests who had dinner in the Peony Building had left.

Xie Zhiyun quietly followed the guard to the front of the Peony Building, only to see the empty lobby.

Although he has experienced changes, Xie Zhiyun is in a good mood.

She turned around and looked up at the halberd: "It's really unfortunate that the Peony Building has stopped eating." ”

Xie Zhiyun smiled so hard that his round eyes narrowed into a slit, and it was rare to show a lively and cute appearance.

"I was going to invite the young general to eat a delicious meal, but God is not beautiful," Xie Zhiyun sighed, "What can I do?" ”

The halberd lowered his eyes to look at her, and while she was not paying attention, he nodded vaguely on her forehead.

"You can't eat exquisite food, but you can still eat a bowl of mushroom wonton."

The guard made a gesture of please: "I just don't know if Madame is willing to condescend to settle a lunch at the wonton stall on the side of the road." ”

Xie Zhiyun was already hungry for a long time, she had a good face, and she refused to say it, but at this moment, when she heard the word wonton, she couldn't help but want to swallow her saliva.

But she held back.

Xie Zhiyun carried his hands behind his back, his posture was beautiful, and he felt that his instrument was extraordinary.

"Then ask the major general to lead the way, and I'll see how it goes."

The people called him Major General, and she also made a gesture and called him Major General.

Whether it was the little grandfather or the young general, as long as she called it, the halberd felt pleasant.

Each is good in its own way.

The halberd grinned and strode forward, leading her down the alley.

Because she was so hungry, Xie Zhiyun didn't have time to look around, she didn't know how many novelties there were in this West Market, and she didn't know how many shops there were in the West Market, she only knew that there was a peony building with floors at the end of that alley.

The halberd was also hungry to the touch.

His pace was fast, and Xie Zhiyun followed closely, and after a short time, the two entered another alley.

On both sides of this alley are bamboo-woven utensils, each of which is small, but it is full of bamboo baskets.

Walk to the end of the alley, turn right, and you will be out of the West Market.

However, after the prosperity, there are other fireworks in the world, two people from the window is bright and clean, the building is gorgeous West Market around, between the corners, there are indeed two worlds.

In front of me is another long alley.

The alleys are full of shacks made of kudzu, and smoke is billowing from each shack, and the sound of diners chewing can be heard from time to time.

"One more bowl."

"Boss's soup today is a little salty."

"Why don't you have yellow rice buns today, I love to eat this."

In a lively atmosphere, Xie Zhiyun completely ignored the occasional vegetable leaves and snow water under his feet.

Fragrant.

It's really fragrant here.

The aroma poured from all directions into her mouth and nose, causing a large amount of saliva to secrete between her lips and teeth.

Hunger spread, and her eyes were full of the scented alley.

If you sniff closely, you will seem to be able to smell a myriad of delicacies.

This is shrimp noodles, that is glutinous rice and roasted wheat, and there are braised tofu, and there are also cat ears.

The list goes on and on.

Xie Zhiyun followed the steps of the garrison and came directly to a food shed full of diners.

A woman in her forties stands in front of a cauldron stove and is holding a special grate and putting wontons in the fragrant broth.

Xie Zhiyun was looking at it, but his hands suddenly became hot.

Before she knew it, the halberd had already taken her hand and led her to a corner seat.

"Sister-in-law wonton, let's have two bowls of shiitake mushrooms and two fried eggs."

After the halberd finished speaking, the woman also replied loudly: "Two bowls of wonton and two eggs, good luck." ”

Xie Zhijun couldn't help laughing.

The halberd withdrew her gaze and landed on her smiling melon seed's face.

"How?"

Xie Zhiyun's smile remained unchanged, but he said, "Then I have to try to know." ”
