Chapter 50

"Now it seems that my guarantor has done a really bad job, not only have you entered the world, but you have also participated in many things that I don't know."

Li Xiaoyan laughed at himself, and looked at Tang Tianan with a little meaning, he didn't need to speak too bluntly to some people, Tang Tianan heard the meaning of beating in his words, and he also recognized who the person in front of him was.

He finally put away his smile, not only was he horrified, in fact he could hardly put on an offensive smile.

Li Xiaocao just smiled, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about what I will do, now this river and lake is no longer a person like me, as long as you don't turn the sky upside down." ”

Cheng Jiujiu quipped: "If you think so, it's over, they not only want to turn the sky, but also dig out the lonely souls and wild ghosts underground, for example, that Oolong Changqing, although he is not from your Tang Sect, but he has always maintained a close relationship with you, am I right?" ”

Tang Tianan didn't speak, he really didn't know what to say, just one city nine wine made him tricky, and now there was another Li Chao who had not been out for ten years, at this time he was on pins and needles, and he just wanted to leave quickly.

"Why don't you speak?" Li Xiaoyan swallowed a large piece of mutton in his stomach, rubbed his oil-stained hands on Tang Tianan's clothes, and asked, "You can't be frightened by me, right?" The elders of the Tang Sect shouldn't have the courage to do so. ”

Tang Tianan smiled bitterly and replied, "It's not you who scare me, it's you, how did you come together?" ”

Cheng Jiujiu smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about how I got along with this guy, now you have to explain why you are here, and let your female disciples be the escorts." ”

Tang Tianan asked rhetorically: "Do you really not guess, or do you just want to hear me say it?" ”

"You've got too much nonsense."

"It's all the leader's order, and I don't know why."

Cheng Jiujiu smiled at Li Xiaocao: "I'm right, the entire Tang Sect is already a puppet of the blood shadow, I'm afraid that in a few years, their hands will reach into the palace, maybe there will be infiltration now, Uncle Li, do you want to connive at them so lawless?" ”

Li Xiaocao was stunned when he heard this, and asked a little blankly: "If it weren't for that friend of yours, would you worry about this kind of thing?" ”

"No, it won't."

"Then why should I care?"

"Because ......" Cheng Jiujiu couldn't say a reason, so he simply played a scoundrel: "Since you came out of the ravine, you can't close your eyes and don't look at anything, let's go to the capital last, and when you and I have been to Wudang, you can go to a few more places with me." ”

Li Xiaoyu almost didn't scare out the meat in his stomach, stared at him with wide eyes and said angrily: "I said aunt, grandma, why do you have to be reasonable, don't you?" I'm not here to help you, if you really think so, I'll sleep here, anyway, a year is pretty fast. ”

Cheng Jiujiu didn't give up, and choked: "Then you can sleep here to death, and when you sleep enough, I will let people hack to death." ”

Before Li Xiaocao could say anything, Tang Tianan was happy, Cheng Jiujiu glared at him, and continued to choke: "Now it's just such a thing, if you don't go with me, the old lady will just find someone who can make a knife and stretch out his neck for him to cut!" ”

Li Xiaowu sighed deeply, slumped on the table and covered his forehead, thought for a moment and nodded, this surprised Cheng Jiujiu, she really didn't expect this guy to agree so quickly, so she poked her head out and shouted to Xiao Er: "Another jar of your strongest liquor, account for your elder's head!" ”

Elder? The guests who were drinking here looked at him with a smile, and then continued to have fun, Tang Tianan twitched the corners of his mouth, nodded at Xiao Er embarrassedly, Cheng Jiujiu smiled and hugged his neck, and whispered in his ear in a playful tone: "I promised your daughter to do one thing for her, you should be able to think of what she would ask me to do, so you have less than a year to persuade her to withdraw that request." ”

Tang Tianan's face darkened, and he asked Cheng Jiujiu, "Why did you agree to help her do things?" ”

"You really talk a lot of nonsense."

Xiao Er brought a small jar of spirits that had just been taken out of the cellar, Chengjiu Liquor opened the mud seal of the wine jar, and a pungent spicy smell spread from the wine jar, Chengjiu Liquor happily poured himself a glass, pushed it in front of Tang Tianan, and said with a smile: "Originally, I wanted to cause trouble here, but now I don't have this mind, since you have received instructions from the leader, I am afraid that you are here for Yan Ting, if you can promise not to go to Yan Ting's matter, I will give you a year to deal with family affairs, what do you think?" ”

Tang Tianan took the wine glass and drank it all, and sighed: "I'm afraid I don't have a choice, I promise you." ”

Cheng Jiujiu poured him another glass, and then smiled: "You didn't see anything today, and you won't mention our conversation to outsiders, right?" ”

Tang Tianan squinted his eyes and picked up the wine glass, his face was a little painful, it was not that he didn't agree to Chengjiu's request, but the wine he had just swallowed was really heartburning, and some couldn't drink this glass, but Chengjiujiu didn't intend to let him go, and asked, "What?" You won't? ”

Tang Tianan closed his eyes and drank bitterly, then covered the wine glass and said, "There is no need to drink any more wine, I will agree to whatever you say." ”

Cheng Jiujiu smiled extremely brightly, poured a cup for Li Xiaocao, and said with a smile: "You see the reluctance on our Elder Tang's face, as if he was bullied by my little girl, why don't you give Elder Tang a glass for me?" ”

Li Xiaocao smiled evilly: "Of course, I must respect Elder Tang for this glass of wine, I don't think Elder Tang will not give me this face, right?" ”

Tang Tianan clutched his stomach, he had never been so sad today in his life, looking at the wine handed by Li Xiaocao, he stretched out his hand and took it tremblingly, closed his eyes and gritted his teeth and drank it all.

"Actually, if he quietly poisons the two of us, we won't be able to stand it, but it's a pity that he didn't." Chengjiujiu smiled at Li Xiaocao's yin and yang weirdness, took Tang Tianan's wine glass and poured himself a glass, drank it in one gulp, stretched out his tongue and licked his lips and said, "Hmm...... It's really not poisonous! ”

Tang Tianan's face turned red angrily, and he glared at Cheng Jiujiu and gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Even if I poison you, I won't be stupid enough to put it in the cup!" ”

"That's what you're going to do, so how would you poison it?"

Tang Tianan ignored her stubble and said to Li Xiaocalamity: "I have heard of your deeds, many of which are very beyond my knowledge, but many people believe that they are true. ”

"Whoever believes is a fool."

"What about the unbelievers? Is it a smart person? ”

"No, those people are dead."

Tang Tianan returned to the second floor, and while drinking strong wine, Cheng Jiujiu joked with Li Xiaocai's words: "It seems that you killed a lot of people ten years ago, are you particularly famous?" ”

Li Xiaocao closed his eyes and pondered carefully, then opened his eyes and smiled: "No, not one." ”

Cheng Jiujiu suddenly felt bored, tore off a piece of mutton and ate and drank with wine, she didn't notice the gloomy look of remorse in Li Xiaocao's eyes, it was the nightmare of the lonely soul that tortured him day and night.

He had paid the price for his youthful frivolity, and now he only wanted a real opponent to give him relief.

"Can you tell me why you want to find that crown princess? What exactly is that friend of yours going to do? ”

"Are you interested in knowing?"

Li Xiaowu sighed: "I can't run around with you like a headless fly, at least let me understand what we are doing." ”

Cheng Jiujiu thought for a while and said, "Then I'll tell you the truth, I and a few of my friends are all people of the Blood Shadow, and the Blood Shadow is an assassin sect that has been lurking for decades, and there are many masters under the sect, and they are all masters of various sects. ”

"Tell me something I don't know."

"If we want to completely eradicate the Blood Shadow, we must kill the leader of the Blood Shadow, but none of us have seen the leader himself, nor do we know his true identity, and we can't even determine whether he is a man or a woman."

"And how are you going to find him?"

Cheng Jiujiu sighed helplessly: "This is the reason why I want to go to the capital, the current crown princess was once one of us, and she is also the biological daughter of the blood shadow leader." ”

Li Xiaocao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Interesting, then this crown princess is the eyeliner that the blood shadow is placed in the palace?" ”

Cheng Jiujiu shook his head: "No, she turned her back on us and climbed to her current position step by step with her body and scheming." ”

Li Xiaocao asked: "Then she must not want to have anything to do with you anymore, wouldn't it be a waste of time to find her?" ”

Cheng Jiujiu said: "But someone is willing to make this fool, thinking that she still treats us as friends, but I don't know that people's minds are comparable to the phoenix in the sky, how can they still look at the little finch in their eyes." ”

Li Xiaowu agreed, and said: "So you want to arrest your friend before she meets her and force her to find out his father's whereabouts?" ”

"It could be a father, it could be a mother, that's pretty much it."

"If she would rather die than say anything, how can you force her?"

Cheng Jiu Jiu pointed to the little donkey at the door with his finger, Li Xiaoyu turned his head and saw a small burden hanging on the saddle, Cheng Jiu Jiu said casually: "Actually, I am not good at using a sword, but a whip, and I am not good at killing, but I am better at extorting confessions by torture." ”

"Oh?" Li Xiaocao pretended to be surprised and asked Cheng Jiujiu: "Could it be that you would whip her body?" A woman who can sit on the crown princess should not be afraid of physical pain. ”

"No, no, no, it's not her skin that I'm going to smoke, it's her heart, the trauma can be healed, but the heartbreak is difficult to heal."

"How can a woman like her be broken by you?"

Cheng Jiujiu put down the wine glass and sighed softly: "No one else can hurt her, but I have too many ways to make her heart ache, and when we go to Wudang, we will go to a place to sample things." ”

"What's that?"

"Something that would expose her filthy heart to the sun."

After they had eaten and drunk enough, Chengjiu Wine packed a few jars of wine and hung them on the donkey's back, she suddenly regretted dropping the wine gourd, although it was given to her by Concubine Jiang herself, but at least with habit, now she really feels that something is missing.

Li Xiaocao carried a big sword, looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, Cheng Jiujiu was thinking about where to buy a new gourd, only to hear Li Xiaocao say to her: "Have you ever thought that one day you will live a dull life like these people, and you will be busy all day long for the trivial things of life, and you don't have to worry about the battles on the rivers and lakes." ”

Cheng Jiujiu was stunned, looked at the pedestrians with Li Xiaocao's gaze, and asked him, "Why do you ask such a question?" ”

Li Xiaocao looked back at her and said with a smile: "Because I want to know if you are the same kind of person as me." ”

Cheng Jiujiu asked, "So what kind of person are you?" ”

Li Xiaocao put away his smile and said: "In my opinion, these people are no different from dead, they just repeat a boring life every day, and they can't be considered really alive at all." ”

Cheng Jiujiu looked directly into his gaze, stared at him seriously for a long time, and suddenly laughed, leading the little donkey through him and walking straight forward.

Li Xiaocao asked behind her, "What are you laughing at?" ”

"I'm laughing at you, you obviously don't think so, but you have to deliberately say this kind of thing to deceive me."
