Chapter 69: Encounter the old life again
Three days later, Liu Man was deposed by a volume of holy decrees from Kyoto, and it was Li Chouxin's old friend Sanqiu who came to announce the decree.
Liu Man colluded with several major families and used his power for personal gain, and was finally confiscated of his family property and sentenced to confiscation, and it was Xu Sanqiu who came to announce the decree who succeeded him as the assassin of Suizhou.
After Xu Sanqiu dealt with Liu Man's matter, he found Li Chouxin.
Li Chouxin was singing about wine with Dugu Qi and others in the previous courtyard.
"Sad brother, I haven't listened to your anecdotes along the way, I'm really envious!" As soon as they met, Sanqiu talked excitedly with Li Chouxin.
"Brother Xu, congratulations, I have done the history of assassination, and I will be able to show my skills in the future, and it is not in vain that Brother Xu is full of ambitions." Li Chou replied with a smile.
After a few people chatted freely, Li Chouxin suddenly asked Xu Sanqiu about Luo Dafu.
Xu Sanqiu shook his head and said: "Duff is ambitious, unwilling to be in comfort, His Majesty sent people to summon him to return to Beijing many times to serve in Beijing was rejected by him, although His Majesty loves talents, but he can only go by him, and now he is still guarding the West Wind Pass, intending to end the old border pass and serve the country." ”
Li Chouxin also sighed: "Brother Luo is a true hero, this kind of heart is not comparable to us, it is really rare." ”
"By the way, sad brother, since the old friends are reunited now, it is better to stay in Suizhou for a few more days." Preface 3 Qiu said.
Li Chouxin sighed and replied: "When old friends meet, they should stay for a few more days and drink hard, but the one-year period is approaching, and I decided to leave tomorrow to go to the southeast, explore the heavenly grandmother, and find back the red face." ”
Hearing what Li Chouxin said, Xu Sanqiu had no choice but to give up, and several people continued to drink, and their interest remained undiminished until midnight, if it weren't for the persuasion of Leng Qing and others next to them, the three of them would have drunk until dawn.
The next day, before a few people came to their senses, Dugu Che of the Dugu family took people and a bunch of gifts and waited outside the hospital, claiming to invite Gongzi back to the house and apologize to Miss Leng Qing.
A few people who heard the movement went out of the door, looking at everything at the door, and suddenly felt very ridiculous in their hearts, the world is really cold, and people's hearts are unpredictable.
Dugu Che walked up to Dugu with a smile on his face and said with a little embarrassment, "Don't blame me, it's just that the Dugu family can't live without you now, if you don't go back to inherit the family business, your brother's waste will only bring my Dugu family into the abyss, so my father hopes that you will go home regardless of your past suspicions." As for Miss Leng Qing, I brought a generous gift to my father to apologize, and the other was to invite, if Miss Leng Qing is willing to accept the apology, my father will also invite Miss Leng Qing to go back to my lonely house together. ”
"Go back? I have already explained to you that I have nothing to do with the Dugu family from now on, father, why do you have to be so low-voiced, it's not that I insist on doing so, it's just that I'm not here, I think you better go back, I Dugu will no longer be called Dugu Qi, I will not be called Ning Qi, I believe that my father can understand my mind. ”
"Rather abandon! Are you really willing to give up everything? Dugu Che asked with a twisted expression.
"Yes, there is nothing wrong with giving up, but it is free, why not!" Ning Qi replied firmly.
Seeing that some persuasion was fruitless, Dugu Che also knew that it was irretrievable, so he prepared to take someone away, leaving a bunch of gifts.
"Wait, take your things away, I'll accept the apology, and the gift won't be necessary." Leng Qing on the side suddenly stopped Dugu Che and the others who were about to leave.
Seeing Leng Qing say this, Ning Qi also said: "Since Miss Leng Qing said so, you can bring this thing back!" ”
Dugu Che was also embarrassed, but he had to let people take things and leave.
And Li Chouxin and the others were also ready at this time, and they were about to say goodbye and leave.
Before leaving, Li Chou asked, "Rather give up!" It's really a good name, I don't know what to do after abandoning my brother? ”
Ning Qi said: "The arrival of Brother Sorrowful has indeed brought Zai Xia to a new realm, so I plan to live here for a period of time first, make a plan, and in the future, I will also wander around the world's famous mountains and rivers like Brother Sorrowful, increase my knowledge, and be leisurely, of course, if Miss Leng Qing is willing, it will naturally be better." ”
Before Li Chouxin could speak, Leng Qing hurriedly said on the side: "Leng Qing is willing, I will go wherever you go in the future!" After saying that, he twisted his head and ran into it shyly.
Li Chouxin smiled at this time, and said to Ning Qi: "I see that Brother Tai, you are in the blessing and don't know the blessing, treat the girl well, and say goodbye." ”
After speaking, Li Chouxin took Zhang Xiaopan, Qinyin and others out of the courtyard, and rode a horse to the outside of the city.
When he arrived at the city gate, he was stopped by Xu Sanqiu, who was chasing after him.
"Sad brother, wait a minute!"
Li Chou stopped when he heard this, and Xu Sanqiu also came to him.
"Brother Xu, I thought I had said goodbye last night, so I didn't bother you today, I don't know what my brother has to say here?"
Xu Sanqiu hurriedly said: "Sad brother, Sanqiu is here to say goodbye to you, and second, I want to tell you about important things." ”
"Oh?? What's up?? God mysterious. ”
Xu Sanqiu said: "I don't know if I am sad, do you still remember Zhang Rao?? ”
Li Chouxin replied: "How can you not remember, that kid was a great help at the beginning, and now that I think about it, I really feel sorry for him, my brother is asking now, is something wrong with him?" ”
"That's not true, a few days ago, the merchants who came from Jiangzhou said that the kid has now become a man of the year in Jiangzhou, when their Zhang family went all the way east under your guidance, and finally arrived in Jiangzhou, with the family foundation accumulated by the Zhang family to start a business, and now he has become the richest man in Jiangzhou, and I heard that he has worshiped an inch of time to study knife techniques as a teacher, and now he is out of the blue, but it is terrible, Sanqiu knows that the sad brother must go to Jiangzhou first, so he came to tell him."
Li Chouxin was a little surprised when he heard Xu Sanqiu's words, and said, "I didn't expect that kid to be quite competitive, not bad." ”
"Worried brother, this trip to Tianmu Mountain is extremely dangerous, no man dares to go to Tianmu Mountain that day, if you are worried that brother must go, you might as well go to Jiangzhou and Zhang Rao to investigate, with the Zhang family's power in Jiangzhou, how much can I help you, brother." Xu Sanqiu said again.
Li Chouxin also nodded, and said: "Brother Xu, don't worry, if you go to Jiangzhou, you will naturally go to that kid to have a good drink, you really underestimated him at the beginning, and this time you have to catch up with him." ”
"It's so good, it's not early, and the three autumns will not be far away, and the sad brother will take care all the way."
"Brother Xu, take care, goodbye!"
After a few people separated, Li Chouxin and the others headed towards Jiangzhou in the southeast, but the two places were far apart, and at this speed, it would take at least three or five days to arrive.
Along the way, Li Chouxin and the others didn't encounter anything strange, and they were very calm.
And Li Chouxin also took advantage of the evening rest time to study the whole array of mountains and rivers given by the people of Wosong Dao, in addition to some unexpected gains, Li Chouxin relied on the operation method contained in the formation, and found that the sword move of the Milky Way Falling Nine Heavens also had a feeling that it would not be broken, and I believe that it would not take long to fully comprehend.
Zhang Xiaopan is the same, with the blessing of the Qinglian Qi Transformation Technique, he is also more comfortable with the sword move, and his strength has improved by leaps and bounds.
"Okay, we will be able to reach Jiangzhou tomorrow, so let's rest here tonight!" Li Chouxin pointed to a post house on the road and said.
A few people entered the post house, but found that there were people sitting at five or six tables in the post house, but they were silent, which was very strange.
"Brother Sad, these people are so strange, why don't we live in another place!" Si Yao whispered in Li Chouxin's ear.
When everyone in the museum saw Li Chouxin and others entering, they all turned their eyes over, and several girls were stunned in their hearts.
Li Chouxin said to a few girls: "If you come, you will be safe, with me, you can live in peace." ”
Li Chouxin arranged for a few people to stay, and then instructed the second child of the post house to prepare a meal and send it to the room.
A few people quickly ate well, Qinyin, Seyu, Zhang Xiaopan and others went back to their rooms, but Si Yao stayed and said to Li Chouxin: "Brother Sorrowful, Yao'er, I'm still afraid, can I live with Brother Sorrowful tonight, so that Yao'er can feel at ease." ”
Li Chou also thought that Si Yao didn't know martial arts, and he was afraid that it would be inevitable, so he agreed.
After Li Chouxin put Si Yao to sleep first, he practiced the trick of attracting the heart in the room, firstly, in order to break through as soon as possible and master the sword moves of the Milky Way Falling Nine Heavens, and secondly, to investigate the surrounding movements.
Sure enough, after Li Chouxin's perception, he still found the clue.
In Li Chouxin's perception, the people who were originally sitting at one table downstairs have now gathered together, and one of the leaders is whispering: "Brothers, the young master of the Zhang family will be here in a while, everyone is ready, don't miss the big things of the host family." ”
"Big brother, is the news accurate? It's been this hour, except for a few people who came in to stay in the hotel just now, I didn't see any people, but those chicks just now are quite handsome, why don't you let the brothers solve their hunger first? One of the people on the side said.
The person who took the lead became serious: "You son of a bitch, sooner or later you will die on a woman, today's matter is a big deal, don't give me sloppy extraneous branches, if you succeed in winning the young master of the Zhang family in a while, let's talk about it." ”
"Boss, could it be that the news is wrong? What if that chapter doesn't come? ”
"Impossible, there is only this post house outside Jiangzhou City, the young master of the Zhang family said that he will go out of the city to hunt every month, and he will come here to rest every time he hunts.
A few people next to him stopped when they saw this.
When Li Chou heard that it was the eldest young man of the Zhang family in Jiangzhou, he first thought that it was Zhang Rao, and began to wonder in his heart.
Just when Li Chou was puzzled, there was a sound of horses' hooves outside the post house, and it sounded like there were about seven or eight people, which should be the Zhang family Dashao that the person said.
The horse's hooves stopped outside the inn, and a person walked in from the outside, dressed in hunting clothes, holding a few hunted prey in his hands, and threw them in front of the counter as soon as he entered the door, shouting loudly: "Xiao Er, take it down and then present it when it is cooked, everything is as usual, and the reward will not be less for you!" ”
At this time, several people outside the door also walked in, led by the brocade hat and mink Qiu, the momentum is outstanding, is patting the dust on the body, seeing this person come in, the person who entered first also greeted him, and said: "Childe, all the orders are good, someone has gone down to do it, it will be good for a while, and the son will sit down for a while." As he spoke, the man pulled out a chair and waited for the noble prince to sit down, and poured a glass of hot wine for him.
The man also spoke, "Brothers, sit down, and drink some hot wine to warm up your body all day, and then taste the game of the day later, and you are welcome." ”
When Li Chouxin heard this voice, he was very familiar with it, but this style has become a lot more mature and peaceful from the former rich and noble son, and it seems that he has indeed grown a lot.
Li Chou knew that Zhang Rao was in danger, so he didn't care much, went out, and looked from upstairs, and it was really Zhang Rao.
"Zhang Rao! You're going to enjoy it, kid! Li Chouxin's voice came out.
Several people beside Zhang Rao immediately got up and waited for it, thinking that some enemy had come to seek revenge.
"Who are you? How dare you be so rude to my son-in-law! One of them asked.
Li Chouxin suddenly laughed out loud, and Zhang Rao also stood up from his chair in surprise and laughed out loud as well.
A group of people were puzzled, but they were always vigilant.
Seeing this, the killer who was ambushed in the post house was also unclear, so he wanted to do it immediately, but was interrupted by Li Chouxin's sudden appearance and suspended his action.
Li Chouxin slowly walked downstairs, Zhang Rao also walked out of the crowd, and the two walked over face to face, holding each other's arms and laughing loudly.
Seeing this, everyone put their minds at ease, took back their weapons and watched from the sidelines.
"Brother Worried, what kind of wind blew you to Jiangzhou? It's been more than a year since the first farewell of the Oro Tomb! Zhang Rao took the lead in saying.
Li Chou was also delighted, and said: "You kid really has a set, and you can still get rich in Jiangzhou, I really didn't mistake you at the beginning." ”
As they spoke, they walked to the table and looked at each other as they sat down.
"Brother Sorrowful, I know everything about you in Kyoto, it's really happy!" Zhang Rao continued.
Li Chouxin shook his head and said: "You kid, let's talk about the old things later, now I see that you are in trouble, it is better to decide the things in front of you before you get drunk!" ”
Zhang Rao was confused by Li Chouxin's words, so he asked, "What do you mean by Brother Chouxin's words?" ”
Li Chouxin suddenly stood up and shouted around: "Friends who are in ambush in the post house, all show up!" ”
Only then did Zhang Rao and his subordinates react and became vigilant in all directions.
At this time, a voice came from behind the stairs: "You kid is really bold, you dare to sabotage the good deeds of my Flying Shark Gang!" ”
Zhang Rao and the others looked towards the staircase, and a big man walked out with a huge steel fork in his hand, and twenty or thirty people suddenly jumped out of the surroundings, surrounding Zhang Rao, Li Chouxin and others in an instant.
"Brother Sorrowful, how do you know that someone is ambushed here and it is not good for me?" Zhang Rao asked.
Li Chou smiled: "How can they hide this little trick from me, don't you know my ability when you are in Oroling?" ”
Zhang Rao also smiled and said: "That's right, since Brother Sorrow is here, then Zhang Rao is foolproof." ”
Li Chouxin shook his head and said: "No, no, no, I don't plan to help, don't pretend to be garlic for you kid, since you have worshiped an inch of time as a teacher, let me see your growth today, I can just drink later." ”
Zhang Rao's eyes became serious, looked at the person at the staircase, and asked.
"Say! Who sent you? ”
