Chapter 89: The Den of Thieves
As a chain inn, Yuelai Inn is an industry of embroidery and clothing. Credibility is still guaranteed.
Not to mention that he is still an earl, and he has a bad relationship with Jia Hui, the governor of the Left Army, and he will be greedy for his own silver when he is crazy.
So, Ruda handed Yin Liu's body to the Yuelai Inn to help him exchange for a bounty.
Today is another day of chivalry!
ordered a table of hard dishes and devoured them, and the vacant upper room upstairs had been cleaned up.
"Uncle, hot water and bath beans have been prepared for you in the room."
It was still the shopkeeper who personally led the upstairs, and also prepared hot water intimately, so that Uncle Lu could wash off the blood on his body.
"Well, I have a heart, I will reward you!"
A piece of silver with three or two layers of silver fell into the hands of the shopkeeper.
"Little Uncle Xie's reward!"
The shopkeeper hurriedly thanked him, walked a few steps and hurriedly opened the door.
Utensils such as bedding and teacups seem to have been replaced, and they are neatly placed where they belong.
"Uncle, do you think this room is still satisfied? But is there anything else I need to add? There is something you can tell the small one! ”
"Ah, it's good, I'll look for you again if I have something to do."
"Yes, just put the clothes that the uncle changed into the box at the door, and there is a special person in the store to wash the customers in the upper room. Uncle, you have a good rest! Small retirements. ”
Hearing Ruda's words "find out again if you have something", the shopkeeper knew that he should leave. Hurriedly put the lock and key in his hand on the table, retreated to the door, and closed the door intimately.
All of a sudden, Ruda was the only one left in the upper room.
Peel off the bloodstained armor and even a few grains of minced flesh, and then untie the underwear that has long been soaked with sweat. Opening the door and throwing it into the frame outside the door, Ruda entered the large wooden barrel where the hot water had been placed long ago.
Fortunately, today I just hit some people who are not in the stream. Yin Liu, the only one who has some ability, is still a coward, and he was killed by his own two sticks before he could run away.
After an afternoon, I didn't suffer any injuries!
After washing away the blood on his body, Ruda called for some appetizers and opened a jar of wine to drink to the moon.
。。。。。。
At about three o'clock in the evening, Du Yi, who was two rooms away from Luda, opened his eyes and got out of bed.
I took a scoop of cold water and washed my face, and changed into a half-arm navy blue short brown and black crotch pants that were not night clothes. He wrapped a white linen cloth around his arm as an arm guard, wrapped a cotton cloth on his forehead, put on a broken straw hat, stepped on a pair of straw sandals with bare feet, took a goose feather knife with a scabbard that looked a little old, carried a small burden, and went down through the window.
Now, he is dressed as a young man who is in a hurry at night.
There are many martial arts halls and sects practicing swords on the rivers and lakes, and it can even be said that there are the most. After all, not everyone wants to enter the rivers and lakes, more of them learn literary and martial arts and sell them to the emperor's family.
The ability to use knives is a hard condition for entering the army that implements the recruitment system, such as the border army and the Anxi army, the reserve army and several major naval divisions and other front-line combat units.
So now on the rivers and lakes, it is really normal to wander with a goose feather knife.
How did Uncle Lu fight with the local Li family, it was his business, presumably the cause of this incident, the shopkeeper of the Yuelai Inn had already written a note and sent it to Jinling.
Be careful about your tasks!
According to the information sent by the shopkeeper, there have been more and more people coming to Bowang Town recently, and there are so many that they are a little abnormal, and they are all drilling into the hills on the back, although there are places that have suffered disasters recently, and the population has moved to Bowanglai, but instead of leaning towards the lake, it is still very suspicious to build a village in the mountains.
What's even more suspicious is that the group of people from the gambling house also went all the way north to those people's villages!
He had to check it out!
Walking smoothly but quickly on the street, turning into a north-facing dirt road, the road was sparsely populated, either some drunks who fell on the side of the road, or some people dressed up in a hurry like Du Yi, nothing special, just let people look at it casually, and then no longer pay attention.
The farther away from the town, the more and more pedestrians on the road, which is very abnormal!
Isn't this time supposed to be resting? How can there be more pedestrians than when you come to town during the day?
Du Yi continued to walk steadily on the road like an old dog, but his eyes were always observing these pedestrians.
Short brown crotch pants about the same as his own, most of them didn't have anything hanging around their waists, only a few people had daggers and short knives or anything like that, and none of them came with swords. The difference is that they have a net towel wrapped around their heads, and none of them wear straw sandals, but foot clothes and cloth shoes.
I don't see any strong temperament, and I am definitely not a Jianghu person.
But they all exude a very strange temperament...
Unwilling obedience?
Many people unconsciously lower their heads as they walk, and the swing of their hands is also very small, revealing some cautious feelings.
The emaciated body is shaky, and some people occasionally twitch their bodies unconsciously, as if they are injured somewhere.
Du Yi has been guessing their identities, but nothing has been found.
Half an hour later, a brightly lit village arrived.
It is a village hidden in the jungle at the foot of the mountain. The houses are all newly built, and they seem to be the latest villages built by the victims.
"Stop!"
A Pu knife was horizontally in front of Du Yi, and Du Yi quickly stopped and stood firm, looking at the owner of Pu Dao with an innocent face.
A bald man.
"This, this old brother, what do you have to say?" Du Yi stared at the big man with a pair of clear eyes. looks like a fledgling young man.
"Less nonsense, where are you from? What's going on with this knife? It's not really recruited! When Dahan saw the appearance of this handsome young man in front of him, he roughly knew that this was a rookie who had just entered the rivers and lakes.
"This old brother, in Xia Du Pre, a person from Jinling, was born in the Jingwu Martial Arts Hall, and is now going out to practice! Seeing that everyone was walking here, I followed below! ”
Without waiting for the big man to ask repeatedly, Du Yi shook out all his "identity information".
"This..."
This kid is missing a string in his head, right? Or did his master hate him too much and didn't teach the rules of the rivers and lakes? How can you tell your origin so easily!
Pak Dao Dahan didn't know what to say for a while.
"Du... Brother Du, right? ”
"Yes, what's your surname?"
"Don't let your surname be Sun... Wait a minute! "Why did you talk to him?
"Brother Du, this is the territory of our Canghe Sword Sect, we are holding a conference for half a year, and outsiders are not allowed to enter!"
Anyway, let's get this rookie who will definitely find trouble first, and what if you see something you shouldn't see?
Extinguish?
But the other party was born in the Jingwu Martial Arts Hall, and it is also a very large and famous martial arts hall.
The mastery is the twenty-four styles of bloody battles, a very good set of knife techniques. Daqi is based on this set of knife techniques, simplified to 16 styles, and has become a must-learn knife method in the army today.
Probably because of this reason, most of the disciples of this martial arts hall chose to join the army. It is precisely because of the large number of people who have joined the army that it has almost become a talent training base for the Daqi army, and it has too much to do with the court. Therefore, the Jingwu Martial Arts Hall is regarded as an official force by the people in the rivers and lakes.
Otherwise, with the size of the Jingwu Martial Arts Pavilion, it would have been a famous faction on the rivers and lakes long ago.
Now they must not be able to provoke it!
"Brother Sun, I'm just curious, I want to watch from the sidelines, I won't make trouble!" Du Yi looked at the big man surnamed Sun expectantly, as if he really wanted to see the selection method of the Jianghu sect.
Understood, this kid just annoyed the master, and he didn't even give him the rule that he was not allowed to peep at other sects for meetings.
But this kid is really, if he doesn't teach him, won't he think about it in his own head? I can't turn my brain!
"Brother Sun, if you are doing well, let me go and have a look!"
As Du Yi spoke, his right hand reached into his arms and took out a silver ticket of fifty taels, and handed it to the man surnamed Sun in front of him with a distressed face.
Hiss –
This kid is really rich!
There is a way in heaven that you don't go, and there is no door to hell for you to run in!
Just watch it if you want, anyway, no matter if you live or die, you don't want to go out again!
The big man surnamed Sun hurriedly took the fifty taels of silver tickets and put them in his arms.
"Ahem, okay, Brother Du Yu, wait a minute, don't look around, but follow me closely!"
The big man surnamed Sun blessed a few words, and when he saw that there were fewer and fewer people coming, he said hello to a few people who were probably disciples who were guarding here, and walked to the village with Du Yi.
Du Yi's face was also full of excitement, as if he really wanted to gain some knowledge.
A few people guarding the entrance of the village looked at this heartless young man named Du Yu and followed him without looking back, with a mocking look on his face.
They definitely wouldn't be worried that this person named Du Yu would be able to run out of the village, after all, their own masters gathered together today, and they couldn't escape.
。。。。。。
There is a large open space to the north of the village.
At this time, hundreds of people gathered in the clearing, sitting around a high platform in the center, presumably used to give people a speech.
It's really like a sect meeting!
Du Yi kept looking around like a stunned young man, provoking a group of people who were leaning on the corner dressed as masters to pay frequent attention, but when he saw the old sun in front of the stunned young man gestured vaguely, he didn't continue to pay attention.
It's a fat pig.
Soon, Lao Sun led Du Yi to squeeze to the front, sat in the third row in front of the high platform, and sat down.
Du Yi looked around and found that the bench was quite spacious between the front and back of the bench.
"Brother Sun, after all, Zai Xia is not from your faction, you put Zai Xia in front, won't you be discovered?" It seemed that his brain had finally come to light, and Du Yi looked at Lao Sun with a worried face, as if he was really worried about him.
"No, no, you're dressed like the disciples of my faction, as long as you put a knife on the ground, who will see it?" Lao Sun patted his chest and reassured.
It's just that Du Yi's eyes are too innocent, and Lao Sun's heart can't help but flash a trace of guilt.
"That's good, that's good!" Du Yi hurriedly put the knife at his feet, straightened his neck and looked left and right, as if he was a thief.
"Don't move, the boss has arrived!" Lao Sun grabbed Du Yi, who was about to stand up, and pressed it on the bench.
Du Yi also became well-behaved and stopped moving, but his eyes were still not honest, and he kept looking in the direction of the master.
I saw a tall figure wearing a white cloak, with a team of handsome women who were also wearing white clothes and white shoes, exuding a dusty smell, and suddenly, a strange fragrance reached Du Yi's nose.
After sniffing the smell carefully, Du Yi found that it seemed to be emanating from the high platform.
He looked at the high platform with his peripheral vision, and when he found that it was wooden and had some small holes, Du Yi knew it in his heart.
But it's not like a sectarian meeting!
Sure enough, the group of people closest to the head knelt on the ground with a fanatical face, stretched out their hands to touch the white cloak of the head of the house, but were stopped by the women in white who surrounded them, and stepped on the man's hand.
It's really strange, why doesn't that person feel pain, but looks like he's enjoying it?
Du Yi was puzzled.
"Boy, kneel down and kowtow!" Hearing Lao Sun's words, Du Yi also hurriedly knelt on the ground with him and knocked his forehead down.
No wonder the front and back are spacious!
"Brother Sun, what the hell is going on, why are you still kowtowing?" Du Yi looked at Lao Sun with a puzzled expression.
Lao Sun didn't answer, but just smiled weirdly at him.
"Red dust is like a prison, and all living beings are suffering!"
The head of the house, who was already standing on the high platform, opened his arms and shouted to the sky.
"Red dust is like a prison, and all living beings are suffering!"
The kneeling crowd around them also opened their arms feverishly and shouted to the sky.
Du Yi seemed to be frightened, until the old sun next to him slapped him on the arm, and then he opened his arms as if he was waking up from a dream, but his body couldn't stop shaking.
"Reincarnation is endless, and there are endless sorrows!"
As if he didn't see the people around him kneeling, the boss continued to shout.
"Reincarnation is endless, and there are endless sorrows!"
It's a beep—ah!
Du Yi shouted wildly in his heart, but he still raised his hands high, shouted with fear on his face, and the old Sun on the side looked at this stunned young man who had thrown himself into the net.
"Have mercy on me, God has descended from heaven!"
Boss, ah no, the sect leader's arm was raised again, and his voice was even louder.
"Have mercy on me, God has descended from heaven!"
The believers below became even more fanatical, and Du Yi even saw several faints.
Suddenly, the scene fell silent, and Du Yi looked back to see that the sect leader had actually put his arm down.
Du Yi knew that next, this sect leader would shout the last sentence in a more powerful posture.
"No mother, vacuum hometown!!"
As if he had exhausted all his strength, the sect leader raised his arms with a snap, and the cloak behind him flew up at once, high above his shoulders, and then slowly floated down...
"No mother, vacuum hometown!!"
The surrounding believers also seemed to use all their strength, shouting frantically, as if they were venting their anger!
"How is it, Brother Du! Do you still want to see us have a meeting!! ”
Du Yi was suddenly picked up, and hurriedly turned around, Lao Sun was looking at him with a hideous face.
Du Yi hurriedly went out and tried to break away from Lao Sun's arm, but unfortunately, another arm came up from his other side.
"Little brother, are you interested in finding out,
White, lotus, teach! ”
Ay?
White Lotus Sect? What is it?
Du Yi was stunned for a moment, a little impressed, as if he had seen it somewhere!
"It seems that the little brother has heard of our White Lotus Sect for the first time." The man on the left spoke again, and Du Yi hurriedly turned his head.
A tall and thin man with a pale face also looked at him with a grin, and Du Yi had goosebumps for no reason.
"But it doesn't matter, just let Xiao Sheng give a good introduction to the little brother... Let's do it! ”
Today's first chapter and second chapter are still released around twelve o'clock during the day.
In addition, I re-read the comments on each chapter, and found that everyone was polarizing about the emotional drama I wrote.
Some said that the writing was good and loved to read, and there were also a group of people who said that they were embarrassed to persuade me not to write again.
So, how is my emotional drama written?
