Chapter 7 Encounters in the Water
Liu Qisi, Caidie, and Liu Qibao looked around the street, hoping to find some clues.
Liu Qisi took Liu Xin's portrait, searched everywhere, searched for a long time, found nothing, and sighed: "Big brother, do you think Dad is a little nervous today, where can you find Liu Xin's whereabouts when the world is so big?" Even if we do find him, we will be helpless. ”
Liu Qibao said: "Little sister, we still look carefully, maybe we can find some clues, if we really meet Liu Xin, we just need to follow Dad's instructions, flying pigeons to pass the book, then Dad will have a clever plan, Liu Xin will be captured and brought to justice, get the secrets we need, and relieve Dad's troubles over the years." ”
Then he said: "Actually, you can't completely blame my father's approach, over the years, all the sects and factions have been eyeing the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance for a long time, and they are not vulnerable at all in kung fu, and they can't compete with the Liu family's swordsmanship at all, otherwise they would have replaced it a long time ago, so in the past twenty years, in order to maintain the reputation of the Liu family, living like a year, all of them have been worried about it, and all these years, they have spent all their lives in hardship." ”
Liu Qisi said: "Dad is too tired to live this kind of life, why did he let Dad re-enter this predicament after 20 years?" ”
Liu Qibao said: "This is all the time when the senior monk of Huatuo Temple said, twenty years later, there will be a new owner of this secret, in order to save the rivers and lakes, become the savior of the rivers and lakes, I have always thought it was a made up promise, so that the sects believe it is true, I didn't expect this sentence to come true, but I don't know what kind of catastrophe will occur in this river and lake?" ”
Liu Qisi said: "Brother, what really makes me wonder is that this secret book has been missing for twenty years, and everyone dreams of getting it, but in the end it easily fell into Liu Xin's hands, is this the will of God, it is really the will of God, maybe Liu Xin is the savior of the rivers and lakes." ”
Caidie interjected: "Young master, miss, I think so, why did so many people in the rivers and lakes fall into Liu Xin's hands?" In his hands, will this catastrophe be able to be put aside? ”
Liu Qibao said helplessly: "I can't say clearly, but I still don't believe that the kung fu on the secret that my father said will be so powerful, no one can overcome it, let's not guess, now all the characters in the martial arts are constantly searching for Liu Xin's whereabouts, we can't lag behind, so as not to let others seize the opportunity." ”
The groom drove the carriage to the door of an inn, stopped it, and a voice came from inside, "What's the matter?" The carriage stopped again, and what happened? Looks like we're really unlucky today. ”
The groom hurriedly replied: "Nothing happened, it's almost noon, it's time to eat, now to an inn, the three senior brothers come down to eat!" ”
The groom opened the curtain of the carriage, and then came down three knights, they were neatly dressed, all silk silk, white, red, and purple, wearing swords of the same color as the clothes around their waists, and walked towards the door of the inn, looking towards this door, which said drunk and living together, and the leader said: "I didn't expect the name of this inn to be very special." ”
The second senior brother said: "Senior brother, no matter how nice its name is, seeing that the business of this inn is so prosperous, people come and go, the dishes here must be delicious, and the four of us will eat and drink enough today, and enjoy it." ”
The three junior disciples echoed the way; "What the second senior brother said is true, he is still full of food and drink, and he has the energy to find Liu Xin's whereabouts in the afternoon."
The four of them came to the store, sat down, the shopkeeper looked at the guests, and hurriedly ran over, holding a kettle in his right hand, holding four teacups in his left hand, placing the teacups on the table, and filling the four teacups respectively, "Guests, please drink tea, this is the best tea we are drunk with, drinking for a long time can prolong life, but also keep youth forever." ”
The senior brother smiled: "I think you are really good at talking, that you can have such a great effect after drinking this tea, I think you are clearly the princess selling melons, selling and boasting." ”
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "If you don't believe what I said, you."
The four of us will taste it carefully, and you will definitely be able to taste the taste, feel relaxed and confident, you have to believe that what I said is correct, what kind of dishes do the four guest officers need? ”
The second senior brother said: "Shopkeeper, you bring us three catties of cooked beef, two catties of peanuts, two catties of pork, and three catties of high-quality daughter Hong." ”
The shopkeeper said, "Ladies and gentlemen, wait a while, and I'll prepare it for you in a while," After speaking, the shopkeeper walked towards the kitchen.
Leng Xiaochan and Liu Xin walked towards a pharmacy, entered from the gate, and smelled an unpleasant smell of Chinese herbal medicine, the boss was carefully calculating inside, heard the sound of someone coming in, looked up, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Miss Leng, please come and sit inside." ”
Leng Xiaochan and Liu Xin sat on the chairs, the bamboo basket was placed on the table, the boss glanced at Liu Xin, and asked, "Who is this?" ”
Leng Xiaochan replied: "Oh, I forgot to introduce, this one is my father-in-law." ”
The boss said: "I heard that Miss Leng has always been single, when did she get married?" But I forgot about my friend, I didn't drink your wine, which is the biggest regret of my life. ”
Leng Xiaochan smiled: "There, there, how can we forget your old friend?" The owner will definitely visit us when he is free. ”
The boss replied: "When the time comes, I will definitely come to your place to sit as a guest, I think you are really a talented woman, a pair in the sky, a pair on the ground, let's get down to business!" Miss Leng, your medicine is in short supply, and now it is out of stock, everyone can feel the good effect of the medicine after taking this medicine. ”
"In order to achieve the goals of both parties, starting from today, I am willing to raise two layers of silver taels to pay you, and this amount of medicine will be sent a little more each time, so that the medicine can be delivered in time and the medicine can be used by the patient in time."
Leng Xiaochan said: "These medicines have just been collected and rolled with a roll," carefully took out the packets of medicines with her hands and put them on the table, "These medicines are bruising medicine, Jinchuang medicine, treating typhoid fever, and the Nine Turns Great Soul Pill that brings the dead back to life, these medicines are all needed by the boss." Ask the boss to take inventory, is there anything missing? ”
The boss said modestly: "Miss Leng has said that, how can I not be at ease?" Life is based on integrity, the cooperation between us is full of trust, and there has never been any doubt, but there has never been any mistake, as for the payment of the girl's fee, according to the silver two payment just now, after speaking, take out two ingots of broken silver from the pocket, put them on the table, and push them in front of Leng Xiaochan, please Miss Leng smiled. ”
Leng Xiaochan said: "Then I might as well be respectful." ”
The boss said: "It's not too early to see the time, you just eat here." ”
Liu Xin said: "Boss, we understand your intentions, we still have urgent things to go back." ”
The senior brother shouted loudly: "What is the second shopkeeper doing, he hasn't served the food yet, what time will he have to wait, are you people living impatiently, if something goes wrong today, I will show you." “
The shopkeeper said unhurriedly: "Ladies and gentlemen, please calm your anger, I'll go to the kitchen to urge," the shopkeeper walked into the kitchen, put the dishes in his hand on the table and said: "Four guest officers, this is the dish you ordered, and the first-class daughter Hong, please use it slowly." ”
The little junior brother hurriedly poured the wine and said, "Senior brothers, as soon as I smell the aroma of this wine, mellow and delicious, I feel that this wine is a first-class daughter red, let's take this opportunity today to drink without getting drunk and not returning." ”
Second Senior Brother Dao; "The opportunity is rare, we must enjoy it today, miss this time, there will be no more in the future, today we will let go of our belly, eat and drink to our heart's content," so they toasted each other, ate food, and drank freely.
Liu Xin and Leng Xiaochan left the pharmacy, walked in the direction of drunken Xiangju, walked to the door, and saw a four-wheeled carriage pulled by two horses, approached the carriage and took a closer look, "Xiaochan, come and take a look." ”
Leng Xiaochan walked over and said, "Is there anything wrong with Xianggong?" What's wrong with this carriage? ”
Liu Xin said: "Look at this carriage, is it exactly the same as the carriage we saw on the street?" ”
Leng Xiaochan affirmed: "This carriage and carriage look like a mold carved out of the street. ”
Liu Xin smiled and said, "I'm sure the owner of this carriage must be eating inside." ”
Leng Xiaochan said: "When it comes to eating, my stomach is already grumbling with hunger, so I have a light meal at this house, and I have to hurry back, otherwise I won't be able to go back until dark," the two of them found a random place to sit down. The shopkeeper came to them and asked, "What do you two eat?" ”
Liu Xin said: "A plate of peanuts, two catties of beef, another catty of liquor, and two bowls of rice." ”
The shopkeeper said, "Two guest officers, wait a while, and you'll be there soon," and walked towards the kitchen, where the two sat and waited quietly.
The horseman glanced at Liu Xin and Leng Xiaochan and sneered: "Senior brothers, look, the woman inside is blocking the carriage and almost overturning our carriage, we have to give her some color today," the sword was pulled violently, and the sword had been pulled out in half, and it had been held down by the second senior brother, "Little junior brother, don't act rashly, so as not to hurt Heqi, the carriage you drove just now was too dangerous, and almost gave away a life, if he hadn't sacrificed himself to save him, would this girl still have her life?" ”
The little junior brother stammered: "This, this." ”
The elder brother said: "This woman is naturally beautiful, and the kung fu she uses on the street is extraordinary. ”
Liu Xin smiled and said: "Xiaochan, have you heard, others are praising you vigorously, saying that you are naturally beautiful and like a fairy, look at the eyes of each of them, I see that I am intoxicated by your beauty." ”
Leng Xiaochan said with a cold face: "Look at you all day long, not without seriousness, if you continue like this, will I be angry?" ”
Liu Xin said diligently: "Okay, okay, Xiaochan, don't be angry, I won't say it again in the future, forgive me once, okay?" ”
The dishes brought by the shopkeeper were put on the table and said, "Guest officer, the dishes and wine you want are ready, please use them slowly." ”
Leng Xiaochan lifted the wine jug, poured wine into the wine glass, and said: "Xianggong, I look at the clothes and swords of these four people, it seems that they are not simple people, and they don't seem to know that they are disciples of that sect." ”
Liu Xin looked the four up and down, pondered for a moment; "These four people are so familiar, they seem to have seen it there, oh, I remember, the four of them are the four heroes of Kunlun, the four beloved disciples of the head of Kunlun Jiugong Xuan, they each like different colors of clothing, respectively, white, red, purple, black, these four colors represent the status in Kunlun, the skills of the four people are very small, good at making Jiugong Xuan's original Kunhua sword and halo four zhao. This swordsmanship also has a certain influence on the entire rivers and lakes. ”
Liu Qisi, Liu Qibao, and Caidie also came to this inn, and the shopkeeper stepped forward to greet them: "Three guest officers, please go and sit inside, the outside is full, and there are empty seats inside." ”
Liu Qibao and Caidie walked in the direction of a table inside, Liu Qisi still took the portrait, came to Kunlun Sijie to compare them one by one, to see if one of them was the person he was looking for, and said: "Although these four are handsome and chic, they are not the people I am looking for." ”
Yu Jiajie, who was dressed in white, slapped the case with his right hand and shouted coldly: "Girl, please put yourself to the point, don't be embarrassed here, ruin your reputation, I am not a commodity, there is nothing to look at." ”
Liu Qisi was furious when he heard this, thinking that this person humiliated me so much in front of the public, made me so embarrassed, where is my face, I have to teach him a lesson today, and said with a smile: "This son is surprised by this, and he doesn't regard the four of you as commodities, I just want to find the person who paints the portrait, what does it matter to you, as for being so angry?" This girl is in a happy mood today, otherwise, she would have been rude to you a long time ago. ”
When Yu Jiajie heard this, his eyes widened, and he shouted angrily: "What a yellow-haired girl, you dare to spread wild in front of me, you don't inquire about the status and prestige of our Kunlun Sijie in the rivers and lakes, don't look at your young age, I have long been merciless to your subordinates, and I still say big things in front of me,
It's like an egg hitting a stone, and I can't do it. ”
Liu Qisi smiled and said: "Oh, I remember, you Kunlun Sijie heard that you Kunlun Sijie also have a certain reputation in the rivers and lakes, but in my eyes it is not worth mentioning, it is simply insignificant, if you say my position, I am afraid to scare your courage." ”
Seeing this situation, Liu Qibao was afraid of revealing the rumors, and he was afraid of startling the snake, so he hurriedly ran over, and said with both hands: "Please forgive me for this brother, for the sake of the little sister's young and ignorant and ignorant nature, don't be as knowledgeable as her." ”
Yu Jiajie said: "This brother is right, if it weren't for your sake, even if he was young and ignorant, I wouldn't spare her." ”
Liu Qibao pulled Liu Qisi's hand and walked in the direction of his table, Liu Qisi said: "Big brother, don't pull me, I don't believe how good his kung fu is, I have to teach him a good lesson today." ”
Liu Qibao said: "Little sister, don't be stubborn, if you continue like this, it won't do us any good," At this time, Liu Qisi reluctantly walked to the table and sat on the chair next to the table, angry and puffing out his mouth.
Liu Qibao said: "Little sister, are you still angry with me? It's not that I said today that you are not good, you almost stabbed into trouble, and almost revealed your identity. ”
Liu Qisi said angrily: "I'm angry, why do we have to keep our voices down, and apologize, it's obviously his no, why did it become mine in the end, this is not the ambition of others, extinguishing one's own prestige, if this matter spreads, our Liu family's reputation will be gone, and what face will it take to stand in the rivers and lakes," After speaking, he turned his head and looked in the direction of Liu Xin.
Liu Xin put some vegetables in Leng Xiaochan's bowl and said, "Xiaochan, you eat more, we have been hungry all morning, we have to eat a full meal today." ”
Leng Xiaochan raised her glass and said, "Xianggong, today is the first time we have eaten at the store since we met, we will toast to this time, and we will drink today without getting drunk and returning."
Liu Xin said: "I'm also in a very comfortable mood today, let's have a good drink today," raised the wine glass, weighed each other, and drank in.
Kunlun Sijie was drinking on the table while talking, Yu Jiajie said: "Today Master asked the four of us to come here to find Liu Xin's whereabouts, we walked in a hurry today, and even forgot his portrait, even if he really stood in front of me, we don't know him." ”
Li Xingfei said: "Senior brother is right, even if we really know that kid, we can only be helpless and sit still, I really can't figure out how Liu Xin's luck is so good, and he can easily get the mighty martial arts, the world's number one martial arts secret, I think he is the number one in the world, and the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance will be replaced from now on." ”
Pan Zhilin Road; "Master once told us that twenty years ago, today's martial arts alliance leader called on all major sects to besiege Huatuo Temple, wanting to annihilate the six senior monks of Huatuo Temple in one fell swoop, and wanting to get the supreme treasure book "Shenlong Jue", but in the end, he went away and returned in defeat, and in vain he called the world's first martial arts alliance master was beaten to the ground and seriously injured."
When Liu Qisi heard this, his heart was even more annoyed, his lips kept shaking, and he violently pulled out the sword from his waist, just pulled out half of it, and was held down by Liu Qibao, "Little sister, don't act rashly and insist on going your own way, otherwise you will definitely destroy the plan that my father has arranged for us, and we still put patience first." ”
Liu Qisi said angrily: "You know forbearance, forbearance, they are all here to insult your father, but you are here to stand by and ignore it, I see that you have no interest at all, it is simply a waste, our Liu family relies on you to carry forward, but in the end, it is a bamboo basket to draw water." ”
Caidie said: "Young master, miss, the two of you don't vomit at each other here, so as not to hurt the harmony, we still hurry up to find Liu Xin's whereabouts, so as not to be preempted by others, otherwise we will come here in vain." ”
Liu Qibao comforted: "Caidie is right, we focus on the overall situation in everything, don't rely on your own temper and cause unnecessary trouble." ”
After listening to the words, Liu Qisi nodded and agreed.
Xu Feihong said: "Liu Xin's luck is good and bad, why did he get the secret, but he was discovered by his master and was beaten under the cliff, so far he doesn't know whether he is dead or alive, but he fell into a crime of betraying his master, which is really a misfortune in luck." The most unfortunate thing is that in two more days, even if Liu Xin's whereabouts cannot be found, the entire Cangshan faction will not be able to escape the catastrophe of swords and swords, and the blood will flow like a river. ”
When Liu Xin heard this, his heart was like a thousand arrows piercing his heart, and he felt a huge sense of pain, if he didn't come out today, the Cangshan faction was facing a catastrophe, but he didn't know anything, all these years of master's nurturing grace, the sincere friendship between brothers and sisters, because of their own selfish interests, but in vain gave them their lives. , so he couldn't hold back his mood anymore and walked to the table of Kunlun Sijie.
Leng Xiaochan thought to herself that Xianggong was really the four protectors of the Cangshan faction, and the secrets on his body were completely consistent with what the four heroes of Kunlun said, if the Cangshan faction really wanted to face the catastrophe of annihilation, it would be nothing more than adding insult to his woes and sprinkling salt on his wounds.
Liu Xin walked to the table and said, "I heard this brother just now, what kind of sword and sword shadow and blood disaster will the Cangshan faction face in the past two days, can this brother tell me a thing or two?" ”
Xu Zhihong said: "This brother is probably not a local, this matter has set off waves in the rivers and lakes, no one does not know, only you are in the dark, but little brother, I still advise you to take care of such idle things, so as not to cause death."
Liu Xin said again: "Is there anything unspeakable about this matter, which is unspeakable?" ”
Xu Zhihong felt that he had been asking like this, breaking the sand pot and asking to the end, and said helplessly: "Actually, this matter is defenseless to tell you, you are not the fourth protector of the Cangshan faction Liu Xin anyway, this time the siege of the Cangshan faction is completely for the "Shenlong Jue" that has been lost for more than 20 years, and now this secret book is back in the rivers and lakes, under the leadership of the leader of the martial arts alliance, all the sects will fight against the Cangshan faction together, so the Cangshan faction will not be able to escape this catastrophe in two days. ”
Liu Xin asked knowingly: "I have a question I want to ask this brother." ”
Xu Zhihong Road; "Brother, please."
Liu Xin said: "Who is this secret now?" ”
Xu Zhihong said: "This secret is in the hands of the four protectors of the Cangshan faction, if I got this secret, I would have ascended to the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance long ago, and then I will have the wind and the rain, and the black and white of the martial arts will be the only one, and everything will be obeyed by me,"
Liu Xin sighed and said: "If you really get this secret, sit on the position of the Martial Arts League, and enjoy the rights you have, won't you think about the people in the world?" ”
Xu Zhihong said with a smile: "The people of the world, what a common people in the world, take the current martial arts alliance master as an example!" This time the Cangshan faction was successful, and after obtaining this secret, he could continue to be the leader of the martial arts alliance, and he could sit in this position for generations in the future, so that he could always pass it down and enjoy the annual worship of all sects and factions. ”
Yu Jiajie coughed coldly and said, "Little junior brother, don't talk nonsense here, otherwise if it spreads, our Kunlun Sijie may attract death." ”
LIU Xindao; "What this brother said is, I just asked casually, and I didn't mean anything else, I disturbed the four brothers just now, there are many offenses, please forgive me."
Pan Zhilin said: "There, there, we get together for a fate, where to offend, that to forgive." ”
Liu Qisi secretly wondered: "This person is very strange, why has he always been concerned about the safety of the Cangshan faction, and he is also concerned about the whole world, this person has nothing to do with the Cangshan faction, but the reaction to the siege of the Cangshan faction by the various sects is particularly great, how this person looks more and more familiar, as if he has seen it somewhere, the more he looks like the person in the painting, and then he took out the portrait from his sleeve, carefully compared, and Guo Zheng is the person in the painting." ”
Liu Qisi turned his head and said with a smile on his face: "Big brother, the person we are looking for is in front of us." ”
Liu Qibao said with a smile: "Little sister, you are really joking, just now you were still sad, and now you are full of smiles, and you also said that the person we are looking for is in front of us, and put your hand on her forehead, little sister, are you dizzy for what happened just now, make up these lies to deceive us, let us be happy in vain, I don't believe what you said." ”
Liu Qisi said with a straight face; "Whoever is smiling with you, don't think that I will use deception to deceive others, this time miss the opportunity, wait until Dad blames it, but don't say that I didn't tell you, just don't say what I just said." ”
Liu Qibao thought when he heard her say this; "When the time comes, if my father blames him, he will have to bear the family law at that time, and his temper is so terrible, and there is no one in the family who is not afraid of him," thought of this, like a colorful butterfly.
Caidie saw his eyes, understood all his intentions, and hurriedly said to Liu Qisi casually: "Young Master, this is your fault, I don't think Miss is that kind of casual person, if she uses lies to deceive us, it will not do her any good, Miss, do you think I am right?" ”
Liu Qisi said: "If I hadn't seen it for the sake of the butterfly today. I won't tell you anything, brother, look at this portrait, is it the same as the person standing next to the four heroes of Kunlun in the back.
Liu Qibao turned his head and looked next to Kunlun Sijie, and then carefully compared it with the person on the portrait, "If it's really exactly the same, don't doubt that it's him, how did the little sister know it." ”
