Looking at the tall gate of Luochuan City, Jiang Ergou was a little unrelieved.

Luochuan City, as the richest Lingzhou Prefecture in the territory of Great Chu, is one of the largest cities in the whole world, and Jiang Ergou is just a scattered person who has lived in the mountains for a long time to enter the rivers and lakes. Naturally, I have never seen such a magnificent city.

At the gate of the city, there are two rows of guards standing neatly. Although he doesn't stand very well, his physique is very strong. It seems that he is a veteran who has retreated from the border, and the murderous aura between his eyebrows has not been completely covered by the prosperity of Luochuan City.

Outside the city gate, there are countless stalls and vendors selling some snacks such as low-quality rice wine and cooked beef.

The crowds are crowded, the business is very good, and every boss has a smile on his face. Even if one or two oil meat men verbally teased their mother-in-law a few words, at most they scolded him for a few words, but they didn't dare to miss their own business.

...

"Two dogs, two dogs. ”

The old man's faint voice reached Ergou's ears. Pulled him back from the shock.

"Haha, I haven't seen it!

"You're scared, Ben Shaoxia is just curious. Why are the cities so high? It's all in the hinterland of Lingzhou, are you still worried that someone will call?"

"That's also high, Ergou, then you really haven't seen the world. If you say that this Luochuan City is prosperous and rich, I have nothing to say about the old man. After all, Lingzhou is the place with the most money in the whole world. The annual tax is more than the sum of the two prefectures of Liao and Jin. But if you want to say that it is tall, the city located on the border of Liao and Jinzhou is not taller and more mighty! Not to mention the Kyoto Xijing City in Bianzhou. ”

"Old man, you can blow hard, if you want to say that it is higher than this city, I believe, if it is much taller, I will ask you how to repair it. ”

"How do I know how to fix it, and it's not Lao Tzu's repair. If you don't believe it, forget it, and see for yourself later. Knock your dog's eye off. ”

While the two were talking, the convoy had arrived at a relatively clean and spacious teahouse. A huge convoy like theirs had to be registered when they entered the city, otherwise something would happen, and where would the government and the people of the Six Gates arrest people?

Ergou actually wants to see how the people in the rivers and lakes have conflicts, for example, because of one or two tables or something, they fight to the death. But Qin Yi obviously didn't give him a chance, and after normal registration and paying a certain amount of silver taels, he came back to greet the convoy into the city.

Of course, what Ergou was looking forward to, the scene in which the city guards made it difficult for the people in the rivers and lakes to be killed by the heroes did not happen.

How can there be so many stories on the rivers and lakes! If there is, it is also the previous one. After the six doors are in the world, except for the real first-class masters, they can get away. The rest, which has been polished to the point of losing temper.

When entering the city, Qin Yi still quietly stuffed a small red envelope to the head of the team guarding the city, and said with a smile that he would let the brothers drink a bowl of wine. The head of the team did not refuse, which can be regarded as spending money to buy peace.

After entering the city, the dart bureau found a small courtyard in an inn to live in, and then was busy selling the goods brought this time, and brought back some goods that were more in demand in Yuzhou. Qin Yi and Qin Xuejian brother and sister went to see the Lingzhou Sima with a letter of introduction and a night pearl non-stop.

Generally speaking, this kind of work of delivering objects is relatively easy, as long as it is brought to the place, it is safe.

Unlike goods, you have to worry about whether you can sell them after you bring them to the place, and if you can't, you have to go back with your things, and this business is also a loss.

The whole dart game was busy, except for the idle master and apprentice who were bored in the inn.

"Old man, go out for a walk, it's too boring in this inn. ”

"What are you going to do, do you have money? Lingzhou, don't go out if you don't have money. It's embarrassing to save it. ”

"I'll just go out and see what I can lose, old man, let's go, I can't just stay in the inn for the first time I travel to the rivers and lakes!"

Finally, Ergou's stalking worked, and the old man agreed to take him out to have a look.

By the time they came out of the inn, it was already getting dark. However, the excitement in Luochuan City has only just begun.

As Rakugawa Castle, which is said to be more prosperous than Kyoto's Nishijo Castle, countless pedestrians come and go, and the streets and alleys are full of jugglers, men and hawkers.

Even the locals who live in Nakcheon City will come out to take a look. For them, after a hard day's work, this is the only time to relax a little, and by the way, to taste the pride of being a native of Luochuan City.

Of course, in such a complex environment, the most important thing you should do is to hold on to your wallet.

Those thieves and pickpockets and the like, after training in such a chaotic environment as Luochuan City, a cloud probe has already been perfected. Once they get their hands on it, if you drill into this dense crowd, there is nowhere to find it.

Even if you are lucky enough to find it, it is useless, in Luochuan City, most thieves and the like have gang organizations, and they often commit crimes in gangs. By the time you find out, your money has been split up into several separate routes and sent back to the gang.

In this situation, it is useless for you to report to the official, not to mention what to do if they die or not. Most of their superiors are related to the local squad heads, patrols, cell heads, and so on.

If you encounter someone with no background, you will be persuaded by a few words of good words, and you will be ruined and eliminated. If you have a little background, throw the stolen money into prison, and it will be released in three or five days. As for the money, you don't want it back.

As for the stolen money. Thieves and pickpockets themselves have a few points, gangs have to take a few points, and a few points have to be sent to honor the father-in-law and patrol on an errand basis.

There's a lot of truth in this.

Therefore, the same Jianghu rice can raise hundreds of Jianghu people. Everyone is seeking to live in the rivers and lakes, and there is always a way to survive.

Ergou was walking on the road proudly, and a child crashed into his arms, and he did not check his money bag immediately. I also went to help that child and asked him to be careful, this is not an appropriate Jianghu Xiaobai.

It's just that the two dogs were able to get seven or eight taels of silver from the corpse, but they couldn't spend it, and they were all cheap thieves. No matter how close he hid, Feng was still taken away by a hateful thief.

The old man looked at all this in the back and didn't remind him, thinking that it was not bad to let this nerd apprentice suffer a little loss, knowing that the rivers and lakes were sinister was better than putting his life into it in the future.

The old man came up from behind him and stood side by side with him, as if remembering something important. As for the thief, he naturally forgot about it.

"Boy, do you know what are the three kinds of people who should be taboo in this world?"

"Yo, old man, I've come up with something new, more interesting than a picture novel, let's hear it. ”

"This is not a new trick, telling you that you can save your life in the future. These three types of people are the elderly, children and women. ”

"Why, old man, as far as you say about these kinds of people, I don't need you to do anything, I'll solve it. ”

"Look at you, that's what people want you to think. I ask you, even if you can solve them. But how do you know that they are trying to kill you? By the time you react, the knife is stuck in your heart. It is precisely because these three types of people seem harmless to humans and animals that they should be most careful. Maybe it's the killer who came to kill you. ”

At this moment, an old woman with a child of seven or eight years old in her arms passed by them, and somehow, with a twist of her foot, leaned towards the second dog.

Ergou could only reach out to hold her, and only let go after she stood firm. The old woman bowed to the two dogs and thanked her.

Ergou returned the favor with a smile, and waited for the old woman to walk away with the child in her arms, then turned around and looked at the old man.

"Go on! I'm listening. ”

"I said you're a big-headed ghost. ”

I saw the old man jump up angrily and slap Jiang Ergou on the head.

This time it wasn't as merciful as before, but the slap was solid.

"Old man, just say what you say, what are you doing with me, I'll tell you, don't think I'm a bully. ”

"I've been talking for a long time, have you listened?"

"Why didn't you listen to it! Aren't you just careful of the elderly, children and women, I listen to them!"

"Listen, then I ask you, why didn't you be careless when you hit the old woman who hit you just now? ”

"Old man, no, you're going to hit me for this? I think that lady is very good, and she thanked me. It's not as bad as you say. Besides, how can there be such a polite killer. ”

"It's not that bad! Hehe! Just now, she had at least three chances to kill you. The first time is when she falls to you, she can stab you to death with a knife, and the second time is when you stupidly go to help her, and then kill you, how can you stop it? The third time, when she salutes you, the child in her arms is so close to you, and gives you a knife, and you die as well. ”

"Old man, I told you everything, there are not so many killers, when you talked to me just now, the old woman just happened to bump into me, not as mysterious as you said. According to what you said, she has three chances to kill me, how can I be fine!"

"The woman just now held the child with such an unnatural hand, and she didn't often hold the child at first glance. A thick callus on the fingers and palms. At first glance, it is a person who often holds a knife, and as for the child, a child, is about to fall to the ground, but he is not worried at all, a pair of eyes are staring at you, so obvious, you can't see it?"

"Old man, the more you talk about it, the more mysterious it becomes. ”

"I don't believe it, I think the old woman heard your conversation with me and came to teach you a lesson. ”

"Don't say it, old man, I won't believe it if I don't see it with my own eyes. ”

"Okay, okay, you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, right, then let's go up and have a look. ”

After saying that, the two of them quickened their speed and followed the old woman's footsteps to catch up.

In the crowded crowd, pedestrians pushed and pushed, and because both the master and apprentice had kung fu, they soon caught up with the old woman before.

The old woman was holding the child and walking forward in small steps. There are too many pedestrians, and the elderly are too weak. The old woman could only stumble forward.

"Old man, look at this old lady, she can't walk steadily. Can you use a knife, can you kill someone?"

"Just watch, don't drop your jaw later. ”

About thirty meters in front of the old man, there was a middle-aged man dressed in rich clothes, followed by two people who looked like guards.

The old woman was slowly approaching the three men. When the old woman arrived at the middle-aged man, it was the same as when she was with Ergou.

At this time, the middle-aged man's first reaction was to help. The two guards behind him used their thumbs to push the knife out half an inch. Looks like two good guards.

At the moment when the middle-aged man was supporting, it was just like what the old man said: the woman suddenly took out a dagger and stabbed it into the middle-aged man's chest. Fortunately, the guards beside him had been prepared, and this fatal blow to the middle-aged man did not succeed.

But at this moment, the child in the woman's arms was suddenly born, and the child in the woman's arms also took out a dagger and stabbed it. The guards tried to come forward to resist, but the old woman holding the child suddenly threw the child up and stopped the two guards alone.

I didn't see that this old woman who was powerless on the surface was secretly a four-grade master.

The child was not simple, after being thrown up, not only did he not fall, but he stagnated in the air, and the dagger stabbed at the middle-aged man again, and the strength of the internal force that erupted was not inferior to that of the old woman, and it seemed that he was also a four-grade master.

This time, no one blocked the middle-aged man, and for him, who could only read sage books and never practiced martial arts, he could only watch as the dagger passed through his chest and flew out of the air with a bright red color.

Over there, the two guards are only five grades of strength, if the old woman has the heart to play with them, she can still make a few moves, but now is obviously not the time. Within a few moves, they went down together to find the middle-aged man.

The child returned to the old woman's arms, and the woman held the child in her arms, ignoring the crowd around her, who had been frightened by the murder, and walked leisurely towards an alley in darkness. It's as if they weren't the ones who just killed someone.

Before entering the alley, she turned around and took a look, and as far as her eyes could see, it was Jiang Ergou.

The second dog was instantly horrified, and goosebumps appeared all over his body.
