At noon, the bright sunshine sprinkled a lot on the streets of Jiangge Town, warm and indescribably lazy.

Lu Xiaohua lay on the counter, absentmindedly looking at the crowd coming and going on the street.

Alas, Xu Shaofeng went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet. Ask him where he is going, and he won't say. It's time to make lunch in a while, and I don't know if he'll come back to eat. Is it for him to keep lunch or not?

Lu Xiaohua was thinking about it, and walked into the store alone, slapped it vigorously on the counter, and shouted: "Damn, I've been waiting for a long time." Is this store still open?"

Lu Xiaohua was startled, hurriedly cheered up, raised her head and asked with a smile, "Guest officer, what do you want?"

The man was tall and stout, with a rude demeanor, and carrying a giant axe the size of half a door panel. I saw him "snap", raised his foot and stepped on a stool, his trouser legs were lifted, and his black-haired legs were full of mud.

"What do you want here?" the strong man asked in a rough voice, his eyes staring straight at Lu Xiaohua.

"We are a grocery store that sells groceries. Pots and pans, needles and threads, and all kinds of general daily necessities, I don't know what you need?" This person's staring eyes are not scary, Lu Xiaohua is slightly scared in her heart, but she has seen a lot of vicious-looking Jianghu people in the past few days, but nothing has happened. So she still plucked up her courage and said it again according to the words taught by the "stick".

"Everyday items, huh?" said the strong man, grinning maliciously.

"yes, what do you want?" Lu Xiaohua subconsciously dodged into the depths of the counter. It's good that this person doesn't laugh, it's really indescribably terrifying when he laughs.

"Then I'll ask for ten taels of silver. The strong man said arrogantly.

"Ten taels of silver?" Lu Xiaohua was stunned.

"Don't you have everything you need for daily necessities? Silver is also a daily necessities, I don't want much, just ten taels, hurry up and get it!" the strong man snorted, and slapped the counter vigorously.

"Xiaohua, you go to the backyard to make lunch, I'll greet this guest officer." The "stick" poked its head out of the container behind it and handed Lu Xiaohua a brisk look.

Lu Xiaohua looked at the "stick" and cautiously stepped aside.

This strong man is a passer-by. "Stick" knows it in his heart. He has met this kind of person before, and usually at this time, as long as he gives some money and says a few kind words, they will leave. "Stick" is quite familiar with this set of rules.

Unhurriedly, he took out a large string of copper coins from the money box at the counter, and said to the strong man with a smile: "Big brother, the small shop has a small profit, this is 500 yuan, buy you a cup of tea." ”

Who knew that the strong man didn't take the money, but rolled his eyes and shouted angrily: "It's only 500 Wen, is it called Hanako when you are a grandfather?" He didn't say a word, suddenly took off the giant axe on his back, and split the counter into two.

The wind blew, and the "stick" couldn't dodge, and his face was hit by sawdust. He looked at the slashed counter, and his heart was angry and anxious, but he dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak: this strong man can split the counter with an axe, and his martial arts are so powerful, it is really not something that ordinary people like them can afford to cause trouble.

He endured the heartache and took three taels of silver from the back room, and said in a reluctant voice: "10 taels of silver is a small shop that can't make so much money in a year." There are three taels of silver here, which is considered to be filial piety to you. ”

The strong man snatched the silver and put it in his arms, but he still widened his eyes, and said fiercely: "Grandpa, I said ten taels will be ten taels, so much nonsense! If you dare to talk nonsense, be careful that grandpa will split your shop!"

"The small shop has a small profit, and these three taels of silver are already four months' income of the small shop. The "stick" saw that he was so fierce when he took the silver, and his heart also burst into flames.

"Take some silver and squeeze it little by little like, it seems that if you don't give you a little bit of power, you won't know grandpa's ability!" After the strong man finished speaking, he slammed the giant axe in his hand and smashed a piece of container to pieces.

"Stick" watched the small shop that he and Uncle Zhang had worked hard to run for many years being smashed, and suddenly his eyes turned red, and he shouted: "I'll fight with you!" He lowered his head and pounced on the strong man regardless of it.

The strong man smiled, saw him pounce, did not dodge or dodge, raised his foot and kicked him in the chest.

Unable to dodge, the "stick" was kicked by him, flew straight out of the store, and fell heavily into the street. He felt a huge pain in his chest, and he couldn't get up from lying on the ground for a long time. Lu Xiaohua screamed in surprise and hurriedly ran to help him.

The strong man held a giant axe in his hand and looked at them with a proud smile. The people on the street watched from afar, but they were afraid of the great man's great axe, and no one dared to come to help.

At this time, Uncle Zhang ran out of the back room, holding ten taels of silver in his hands tremblingly, held it high in front of the strong man, and said in a low voice: "The child is young and ignorant, please raise your noble hand and let him go." ”

"Wouldn't you have to be beaten up if you knew each other like this?" the strong man grabbed the silver and grinned.

Zhang Boqiang smiled and said yes again and again.

"Third brother, have you finished it, the eldest brother is still waiting for us outside the town, don't let him wait in a hurry. "A slender man led three horses and walked this way.

"It's coming!" the strong man responded, kicked over the "stick" that was finally picked up by Lu Xiaohua, and walked towards the thin man with a smile.

Suddenly, he saw the sharp thin man's eyes staring straight behind him in a daze, and his mouth was wide open, as if someone had forced a steamed bun. Seeing him like this, the strong man couldn't help but turn his head to look behind him, and at this look, he also choked there with his mouth open like a thin man.

I don't know when, a sharp sword was carrying the icy chill and pointed straight at the strong man's forehead three feet in front of him.

The strong man fixed his eyes and saw that he actually knew the person holding the sword!

Xu Shaofeng led a white horse in one hand, and pointed at the strong man with a sword in the other. He went to the town early in the morning to buy supplies, and he didn't want to see such a scene as soon as he came back. And those two were the second Sandstorm Snake and the third Sandstorm Bear among the three Sandstorm heroes who fought with him the night before.

Xu Shaofeng looked at the sandstorm bear coldly, and said coldly: "Return the money to Uncle Zhang." ”

An untamed line crossed the Sandstorm Bear's eyes, his eyes changed, and the hand holding the axe was just about to make a move, and the cold blade three feet in front of his forehead suddenly leaned forward and pressed close to his eyebrows.

"Third brother, just listen to him once. The second sandstorm snake watching next to him saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly persuaded him.

Sandstorm Bear was still glaring at Xu Shaofeng unconvinced, he suddenly felt that the other party's eyes narrowed, and a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes, which made his heart palpitate. The biting chill caused a string of white spots to erupt on both sides of his eyebrows. He felt his heart pounding, his whole body went limp, and he could barely stand on his feet. Seeing this, the sandstorm snake beside him hurriedly took the silver from his hand and handed it to Uncle Zhang.

"I don't want it! I don't want it!" Zhang Bo waved his hand in fright.

Lu Xiaohua had been watching anxiously from the side, and then walked over, took back the silver from the sandstorm snake without saying a word, and stuffed it into Uncle Zhang's hand.

Xu Shaofeng's hand shook slightly, and a cold light flashed in front of Sandstorm Bear's forehead, cutting off a strand of his hair, and he blew off the dirty hair on the sword and retracted the sword into its sheath.

Sandstorm Bear suddenly felt the pressure of his heart palpitations disappear, and he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"You ......" Sandstorm Bear opened his mouth to say something.

"Get out!" Xu Shaofeng glared at him and shouted at him.

Sandstorm Bear turned and pulled a horse from Sandstorm Snake's hand and said fiercely, "No one can tell me to 'get out', you dare to say it to me twice." Grandpa will definitely take revenge for today! Boy, you wait for me!"

"Wait a minute. Xu Shaofeng suddenly floated in front of his horse.

"What do you want to do?" said Sandstorm Bear.

"Leave the horse behind!" Xu Shaofeng said coldly, "You smashed someone else's store, don't you have to compensate?"

"Count yourself ruthless, you wait!" the two of them dropped their horses and ran away.

Xu Shaofeng took the horse left by the two bears of Sandstorm and handed the reins to Uncle Zhang. Uncle Zhang took it like a wooden man.

The "stick" clutched his chest and tried to struggle to stand up, but he lost his strength and sat down. Xu Shaofeng walked over to help him up, stretched out his hand behind his back and pressed it for a while. The "stick" suddenly felt as comfortable as being covered with ice on his chest, and the dull pain magically disappeared.

Standing firm, he stubbornly shook off Xu Shaofeng's hand and said, "Don't worry about it!"

Xu Shaofeng didn't care, turned over and jumped on the white horse, stopped in front of Lu Xiaohua, and said, "I'm leaving, do you want to see the rivers and lakes?"

The midday sun was shining brightly on him, and it seemed to gild him with a faint layer of gold, making him look handsome and extraordinary on a tall horse.

"But the 'stick' brother ......," Lu Xiaohua glanced at the "stick" uneasily.

"I've healed him. He'll be fine, just rest for two or three days. Xu Shaofeng said affirmatively.

"Oh well. Lu Xiaohua nodded at him.

On the white horse, Xu Shaofeng leaned over slightly and stretched out a hand to her. Lu Xiaohua put his little hand in his big hand, and he took her in front of him with a slight force.

Lu Xiaohua waved to Uncle Zhang and the "stick" with a smile and said: "Uncle Zhang, Brother 'stick', after I have seen the rivers and lakes, I will come back to see you, you take care of yourself!"

Xu Shaofeng didn't say much, as soon as he pulled the reins of the horse, the white horse was gone.

Looking at the backs of the two of them in the distance, Uncle Zhang finally came back to his senses.

He let out a long sigh and said to the "stick": "I knew that there would be today, and at the beginning of the year, I should have made a marriage between you and Xiaohua first." At that time, I felt that she was still young and didn't understand anything, so there was no need to worry. I didn't expect it, alas~~" Uncle Zhang helplessly patted the back of the "stick" and comforted: "Next time, if you meet the girl you like, you have to start first no matter what." ”

"Little flower, little flower, my little flower!~~" On this day in early summer, under the bright daylight, the "stick" eldest brother, who has always been respected by the young men in Jiangge Town, and the man who never frowned when he destroyed the store and was beaten, cried loudly on the street like a child.
