Chapter 32: Misfortune

Two days later, the two finally arrived at their destination Luoyang, there were already many people from the rivers and lakes who arrived before them, almost all the inns were overcrowded, and occasionally there was only one room left, Tang Que was of course no problem, but Shi Qingxuan blushed and didn't live in the same room with him, Tang Que could only regret it.

Tang Que took Shi Qingxuan to Fenglai Lou for dinner, this is Tang Que's most familiar restaurant, he also met Shen Luoyan for the first time here, every time he thinks of the woman in the apricot yellow shirt and smiling like a flower, Tang Que will inevitably feel a little unspeakable melancholy in his heart, although in terms of appearance, Shi Qingxuan is a little more beautiful than Shen Luoyan, but for some reason, Tang Que always thinks of the charming woman who once drank with him and bathed in blood, is it really the friend of life and death that is different? Tang Que thought like this, and couldn't help but smile on his lips, Luo Yan, I don't know if you are far away in Wagang, are you okay?

This expression, Shi Qingxuan has seen it many times on Tang Que's face in the past two days, and he sighed slightly in his heart, he still doesn't want to tell himself, who is he missing when he shows this expression?

The two of them found a seat and sat down, and when Xiao Er saw Tang Que, he immediately greeted him with a smile, "This guest officer, you haven't been here for a long time!

"Stir-fry two more side dishes, don't you see that I'm not alone?" Tang Que scolded with a smile, Xiao Er smiled, and blinked narrowly, "The guest officer is so blessed, your wife is really beautiful!"

"Get out of here!" Tang Que was about to kick, Xiao Er went down with a smile, Shi Qingxuan pretended not to hear, turned his head to look at the scene outside the window, but the blush quietly climbed up her white jade neck, Tang Que was happy, "Don't pretend, I don't believe you didn't hear it." ”

"You!" Shi Qingxuan turned around and glanced at Tang Que in annoyance, "I didn't expect you to have great powers, and even the second junior in the restaurant is familiar with you." ”

"Haha. Tang Que smiled, but saw that Xiao Er had already run up, and he was still holding a plate of vegetables in his hand, with several dishes on it, a plate of cooked beef slices that Tang Que often ordered, a plate of roast chicken, two plates of fried vegetables, and a pot of Fenglai wine, Tang Que asked strangely, "Why is it so fast?"

"Guest officer, you are a regular customer, and you haven't been here for so long, so I brought you a few plates of fried dishes first. Xiao Er smiled, his face full of simplicity.

"Haha! Thank you to the second brother. Tang Que's mood suddenly got better inexplicably, Xiao Er brought all the dishes to the table, Tang Que smelled the wine in the wine jug, it was Fenglai Lou's signature Fenglai Wine, and immediately said happily, "It's still the little second brother who understands my mind! ”

Tang Que shook his hand, and a few small ingots of broken silver fell into the small second-hand, Xiao Er took it into his arms without looking at it, and said with a smile, "Thank you for the guest reward." ”

"Go ahead. Tang Que smiled, Xiao Er nodded and walked away.

"This little two is also an interesting person. Shi Qingxuan looked at this scene with interest and said approvingly.

"Well, there are not many such people in the world, if he is lucky, he is far more than a shopkeeper now. Tang Que said with a smile.

"Why don't you help him?" Shi Qingxuan asked.

"Everyone has their own fate, and if they can't force it, besides, the rivers and lakes may not be suitable for him. Isn't it good to run around the restaurant, save some silver, do some small business after rì, find a virtuous wife to marry and have children, and live a peaceful life?" Tang Que shook his head, quite touched, wasn't he like this in Dongli Village at the beginning? Teaching during the day, drinking wine at night, teasing the little girl......

It's a pity that that kind of life has no chance for me.

"Yes, if you can do that, why not do it?" Shi Qingxuan sighed.

Tang Que and Shi Qingxuan were chatting, but suddenly heard a commotion on the other side, and immediately frowned, there must be someone in the rivers and lakes making trouble again, Shi Qingxuan suddenly felt uneasy, so he said to Tang Que, "Go and see." ”

Tang nodded and walked over with Shi Qingxuan.

Getting closer, Shi Qingxuan smelled the smell of blood, and when she saw the thin figure lying in a pool of blood, she immediately grabbed Tang Que's wrist in reverse, and turned around, the smile on Tang Que's face had converged, and his eyes had narrowed, Shi Qingxuan knew that this was already Tang Que's expression of anger to the extreme.

A strong man stepped on the face of the shopkeeper who was lying in a pool of blood, and an iron sword pierced his chest, Xiao Er's eyes were wide, staring at the iron sword that had not entered his chest, as if he didn't believe that the person who was stabbed was himself, and the strong man also scolded and scolded, "Damn, this bastard! Lao Tzu came first for a long time but didn't serve me food, and actually served it to someone else's table, he simply looked down on Lao Tzu! It's cheap to die!"

"Huh. Just when the crowd was talking, a chuckle easily overwhelmed everyone's voices and fell into people's ears with great clarity.

People suddenly fell silent, the person who laughed was at least a super-first-class master, such an internal force control was really terrifying, and a slight smile could overpower everyone's voice, obviously the internal force jīng Zhan to the extreme.

The reckless man's expression also changed, he knew that there must be someone who couldn't see his arrogant behavior, and he couldn't hide the panic in his heart, but his face just restrained his arrogant look, and hurriedly turned away.

Shi Qingxuan originally thought that Tang Que would make a move with anger, because the laughter came from his mouth, but he didn't, but let the reckless man leave, but the originally happy look on his face had disappeared, replaced by indifference that rejected people thousands of miles away.

"Ah Que ......" Shi Qingxuan called softly.

"Qing Xuan. Tang Que spoke, Shi Qingxuan heard him call his name for the first time, and couldn't help but be stunned, but he continued, "I was wrong......"

"It's not your fault. Shi Qingxuan shook her head.

"No, I was wrong, I was wrong. Tang Que said in a deep voice, "Being weak is a sin in itself...... Without power, you can't protect anything, whether it's life, your loved ones, or your own ...... Nothing can be protected. It's so simple, it's ridiculous that I only understand it now......"

Shi Qingxuan was stunned, she didn't expect Tang Que to say this, and she didn't know how to speak for a while.

"Let's go, I can't eat this meal anymore. Tang Que said, Shi Qingxuan said "um" and followed him downstairs.

Tang Que found the shopkeeper and gave him dozens of taels of silver, and asked him to hand it over to Xiao Er's relatives, the shopkeeper took it with a sigh and said that he would definitely send it to them, Tang Que nodded and left Fenglai Building with Shi Qingxuan.

"Where are we going?" Shi Qingxuan and Tang Que walked side by side on the road, turned their heads and asked.

"Dugu Mansion. Tang Que replied.

...............................................................................................................

Dugu Mansion.

"Oh, the boy is in town?" the old man asked faintly, looking up.

"Well, they watched them enter the city. The girl in red helped the old man to sit down in the courtyard, "nǎinǎi, how do you know that Tang Que is a master?"

"He's ......," the old man laughed, "You'll know about it later, little Feng'er." ”

"nǎinǎi!" the girl shook the old man's sleeve and said coquettishly, "You just sue sù Feng'er!"

"He's ......"

"Report to the old lady! A son who calls himself Tang Que is visiting, do you want him to come in?" the old man was talking, but was interrupted by his subordinates, but her face did not show the slightest sorrow, but smiled, "Oh, here you are, then let him in." ”

The girl glared at the subordinate indignantly, and the subordinate only felt a chill all over her body, seeing that the girl was staring at herself, she secretly complained in her heart, how did she offend this aunt?

"Let's go, Xiao Feng'er, go and meet him with nǎinǎi. The old man took the girl and walked into the hall.

"Yes, nǎinǎi. ”
