Chapter 107: Rumors of the Swordsman
A street stall, two bowls of mutton soup cakes with meat, two people sit opposite each other.
The Taoist specially brought a bowl and put it on the bench next to him, and a three-flowered cat squatted here.
"Hoo ......"
Wu Nuxia sucked the soup cake and said to him: "Although our Xishan faction is in Yizhou, it is also a big faction in the rivers and lakes, and it still has some relationship in Changjing. When I first came, I left the relationship of my master's friend when he was young, and helped with the darts in the Yongning Dart Bureau, but it was also a hard job, I felt that there was no future, and I did it for about a year. ”
"Don't you have no old friends in Changjing?"
"That's my master's deceased, and I didn't know him before. But he is quite righteous and has helped me a lot, if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have been able to stand firm in Changjing at the beginning, and maybe not now. Wu Nuxia shook her head, "It's a pity that I was just about to repay him and get him to work for that nobleman, so he begged to die, alas, it's really ...... to go out to fight for wealth and treasure when he is old."
"Like a doorman?"
"Not much."
"That's good, too."
In the capital, I am a guest of the nobles in the court, I am idle on weekdays, there are not so many fights and killings, food, clothing and housing are often good, and I give a lot of money, which is a better destination for people in the rivers and lakes. Many people in the rivers and lakes who want to leave fighting, killing, and settling down cannot find such a good home.
However, this woman is clearly not a doorman.
Song You didn't ask much, only sandwiched all the thinly sliced mutton slices in the soup cake to Sanhua Cat, and asked in a low voice:
"Do you remember the swordsman at the Liujiang Conference?"
"Who?"
Wu Nuxia looked up at him: "Shu Yifan? ”
"Yes."
"Why don't you remember!"
Wu Nuxia lowered her head and blew again, took a sip, and then said: "In the past year, he has become famous in the rivers and lakes, unless the news is too closed, everyone has heard of his name." ”
"I've heard about it on the way here."
"Listen to whom?"
"The people in the tea stall, Mr. Storyteller."
"Is it rumored that he is the number one swordsman in the world?"
"That's what Mr. Storyteller said."
"Storytellers love to arrange these things, but it's not really interesting, and it's not surprising that one day the number one in the world was defeated by an unknown person." Wu Nuxia said, "Well, what Shu Yifan did in Zhaozhou last year really shocked the entire Jianghu, and it is not surprising that he has such a reputation." ”
"Tell me about it."
"You don't eat meat, do you?"
Wu Sowei found out that he had given all the meat to Sanhua Cat.
"It doesn't matter."
"Hey ......"
Wu Nuxia shook her head, ignored it, and continued: "This starts with a major incident in the rivers and lakes twenty years ago. I've heard that, too. said that twenty years ago, there was a family surnamed Fei, who was called Lin Dehai of Hanjiangmen, Zhaozhou, who was drunk and killed, and outsiders spread that our rivers and lakes seem to have this kind of thing often, but in fact, there are very few, we have only heard about it from the story. And this kind of tragedy, if you don't handle it well, the government won't let you have a good time, so it shocked the whole Jianghu back then. ”
"Then Shu Yifan's original surname is Fei?"
"How do you know? But yes! Na Shu Yifan's original surname was Fei, and he was the only seedling of the Fei family! ”
Wu Nuxia temporarily put down her chopsticks: "That Hanjiangmen is the largest Jianghu sect in Zhaozhou, and Lin Dehai is also the first person in Zhaozhou. This person is very proud, he destroyed the Fei family back then, but left only the son of the Fei family, and asked people to practice martial arts well, and go to take revenge in the future, but now that they have grown up, they have practiced a good swordsmanship for 20 years, and they really got it back. ”
She paused as she spoke:
"At the Liujiang Conference at that time, I originally wanted to go and have a discussion with him, first, I felt that I probably couldn't beat him, for fear of losing face, and secondly, I felt that this person was a bit of a problem at that time."
"What's the problem?"
"He picks people who use knives!"
"...... like this"
Song You also realized it at this time.
That seemed to be the case at the time.
"Look—"
Wu Nuxia said: "People came to the door, not only with a good martial arts, but also with sufficient preparations. ”
"And then?"
"Later, I heard that he took advantage of Lin Dehai's arrogance......" Wu Nuxia spoke with relish, as if she was more energetic than when she first heard it, "That Hanjiangmen is also a famous door in Zhaozhou, and there are not a hundred or eighty good players under the door, even if Shu Yifan is really the number one swordsman in the world, it is impossible for one person to pick the entire Hanjiangmen." But guess what's wrong with him? He directly wrote a letter, telling Lin Dehai that he had come to him, and asked Lin Dehai to get ready. ”
"He dismissed his disciples?"
"That's pretty much it." Wu Nuxia sighed, "Tut, I heard that night, it was last year's shock, lightning and thunder, and the sword light and sword shadow were brighter than thunder." ”
“……”
Song You seemed to already have a picture in his mind.
On a cold and rainy night, lightning and thunder roared.
The cold iron ghost head knife, the first person in Zhaozhou, the person who destroyed the whole family and left a boy to ask him to seek revenge, I am afraid that he also feels that he is invincible in the world, obsessed with martial arts, and proud.
A young swordsman, with a blood feud, has been practicing hard for many years, making sufficient preparations, being bold and domineering, and even demons and demons can be slashed under the sword at will.
If there is also a history book in the rivers and lakes, this battle should be recorded in the history books of the rivers and lakes.
"And then?"
"Isn't that all known?"
Wu Nuxia had already picked up the bowl: "But Lin Dehai also has a son in the family, who was born with a woman outside, and took that woman back the year before last, and took another concubine, except for the servants in the family, they are almost one wife, one concubine and one son, he never thought that he would lose, and he didn't send them away......"
At this point, she paused.
The chopsticks clanged the bowl, and almost drove a bowl of soup cakes into his stomach, and then said:
"Guess what Shu Yifan did?"
"Another bowl?"
"Good!"
So I ordered her another bowl, still adding meat.
"Everyone thinks that he wants to treat others in the same way as others, but in fact, it is not much different...... He also left Lin Dehai's son, told him what his surname was, and asked him to practice martial arts well, so that he could avenge his father's murder when he grew up. Wu Nuxia said and laughed, "This person is also proud, no wonder Mr. Storyteller holds him so high." However, he did not kill Lin Dehai's daughter. ”
"That's ......"
"Do you think I'm better than those storytellers?"
"Yes......"
"You're a Taoist, and you like to hear this?"
"You can also taste some of the rivers and lakes."
"What's the hell around? Isn't it all a bunch of bitter haha? Who wants to do something better to eat? Oh, except for those with brain disease. ”
Wu Nuxia shook her head and concentrated on eating soup cakes.
Song You also lowered his head and ate, and there was still half of it left in the bowl.
This mutton soup cake is also wide, but unlike the soup cake that is almost two or three fingers wide in Nanhua, this one is only about one finger wide, and it is thinner than Nanhua's soup cake, which is pulled. The soup base made from the lamb bones with chopped coriander and green onions and a few slices of thinly sliced lamb is also delicious, and you can taste a little spice from the soup base.
By the way, this is the West Side.
Many merchants from the Western Regions are here, and they have seen a lot of them on the road during the day, and the West Market may also have the richest spices in the whole Dayan, I don't know what the price is.
I have a lot more time to go around.
Unlike Song You, who is not in a hurry to eat, the people in the rivers and lakes eat vigorously, as if someone wants to rob her, and when Wu Nuxia finishes the second bowl, Song You has just finished eating half of the bowl.
"Are you full?"
"Full!"
"Another bowl."
"It's not that big-bellied, besides, it's going to be dark now, and I haven't heard about the curfew lifting today, so we should go back." Wu Nuxia got up, "Go check out." ”
"Okay."
Song You settled the bill.
actually ate a lot of money.
Then the two of them and a cat walked back down the street, and there were very few pedestrians on the street.
There are not many lights at night, only a touch of fiery red on the horizon, and the fiery red is a beautiful gradient on the top of the fiery red, and the eaves of the ancient buildings on both sides and the polished smooth stone brick floor occasionally reflect these brilliance, and I feel calm when I walk.
"In the past few days, there has been a curfew, the shops have closed early, and not many people have come out when it gets dark.
"Why the curfew?"
"It's not a monster yet......"
"The monsters at the feet of the Son of Heaven are also so rampant."
"Isn't it a murder at the feet of the Son of Heaven every day? I'm afraid that the capture in Changjing City is the busiest in the world, everyone can kill people, and the monsters are more capable and difficult to catch, wouldn't it be better to make trouble? ”
"Did you kill someone?"
"It's not just killing people, it's still killing big officials, and there is more than one, otherwise how could there be such a big movement."
"I heard that there is a city god in Changjing City."
"No."
“……”
Song You frowned slightly.
"Don't be surprised!" Wu Nuxia laughed and said, "It's the same everywhere, where there are more people, where there is more money, and where the power entanglement is more complicated, the more chaotic it is!" Not to mention the feet of the Son of Heaven, maybe if the Son of Heaven was not here, it wouldn't be so messy! ”
"I see."
"I didn't say anything......"
"Yes."
"Let's talk quietly, otherwise we will have to suffer a little bit if we are heard......"
"Hmm."
"Anyway, you rest early, and before the forbidden army, the county lieutenant, and anything else to find out about the matter, don't go out at night, close the windows tightly, and don't go out to see when you hear movement at night, even if you have the ability, it's better to have more than one thing. When you come to Changjing, you can take a good stroll and enjoy the prosperity of Changjing. ”
"Justified ......"
Song You nodded.
After a pause, he said: "It's just that in the next way, the money has been almost spent, I don't know if the woman knows the way to get money that is suitable for Taoists." ”
"Huh?"
Wu Nuxia looked at him suspiciously.
The three-flowered cat walked ahead with cheerful little steps, and when she heard the words, she also turned to look at him.
Wu Nuxia seemed to be interested, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and thought for a long time: "I really don't know how people like you get money for a while, and I haven't seen other masters when they are short of money, let me think about it......"
“……”
"There it is! You're sure to spell, right? That, that Yidu, that one who stole money out of thin air, will you? If you could, I'll take you to a wicked official's house!" ”
"I don't have that ability."
"And what will you be? Fortune teller? You can go to those dignitaries, I think you can also come to the money. ”
"I don't have that ability."
"So what are you capable of...... Oh, I remembered! The woman patted her head and slowed down, "Your stewed beef is delicious!" I went south and north, and I loved to eat it in my life, but after eating it all the way, your beef can also rank in the top few in my heart, you can open a store, and use the first floor as a shop and sell beef! I know where to collect beef! ”
"I'm really good at cooking, but it's too hard to open a restaurant, and I'm tired all the way down, and I've been very lazy lately, so I want to be diligent one day, so I'll do what the woman says."
"And what will you do?"
"Exorcise evil spirits, subdue demons."
"How good?"
"Very well."
"There are often some bounty warrants wanted at the city gate, and some are demons and ghosts that are causing chaos in the neighborhood or in the city, looking for a master to cut them off, you can go and see them when you have time." Wu Nuxia paused, "But this kind of is either very tricky, or troublesome and less money, if it is so easy to do, the temples in the city and the Taoist temples outside the city are also heard to have real skills, and I don't know how many folk gentlemen there are." Don't talk about those, it's our Jianghu martial artists, who are bold and vigorous, even if they are not good at this, they can cut a few little monsters for money. ”
"The woman watched at the city gate yesterday, what did she see?"
"Oh......"
Wu Nuxia scratched her head: "I don't know many words, I just watch them all watching, idle and bored, and pretend to look at it, if you want to know the specifics, you have to see it yourself." ”
"I see."
"Here we are."
"Don't leave it at that."
"It's all neighbors, don't say anything else, I can hear you walking upstairs at night." Wu Nuxia grinned, "I just hope you don't snore, it's okay to play, be quiet." ”
"Good ......"
The two of them each opened their own doors.
