On a cold night, there is no cloud and there is a moon, Yang Zhi's inn is on the back of the White Horse Tower, facing the south city wall, occupying a piece of land in all directions, and the pine and cypress plum chrysanthemums outside the door are a peaceful appearance. The walls of the inn didn't look high, only a dead lantern, swaying in the wind, emitting a faint light, and the inn door, side door, and corner door were closed, but it couldn't help but the two men in black who had already flown up to the roof.

The man in black observed the time of a stick of incense, and then slowly hooked it into the corridor from the eaves, room by room, and the coachman and his men invited by Yang Zhi had already fallen asleep, breathing soundly. Yang Zhi's breathing in the room was obviously long, and by the moonlight, it could be seen that Yang Zhijiu had not woken up yet, and a man in black made a surveillance action, one guarded the door, and the other quietly knocked on the door and slipped into the house.

Just as the man in black went to pick up the burden beside Yang Zhi's bed, Yang Zhi suddenly opened his eyes and kicked the man in black over; Yang Zhi had no intention of chasing at all, and when Li Gon came from next door, he lit the oil lamp, took off the three darts and looked at them, and said with a smile: "We are really lucky, it is a swallow dart." ”

Li Gon himself is a master of hidden weapons, and asked Yang Zhi: "There must be a woman on the other side, why don't you chase it out?"

Yang Zhi dragged Li Gon to the window, pointed to a corner on the road, and said: "There is a carriage with a carriage parked outside the inn, which should be the other party's cordon; this method is good, a carriage can monitor an open area, people are not suffering, and they can clearly see who came in and who went out at night." The person who entered my room was just a bait to see if I had any other purpose, I am a businessman now, what should I do?"

Li Gon reacted and chased out, that was the behavior of the high-rollers, and now Yang Zhi is a businessman, and his money and life are more important than anything else, so he should hide quietly in the inn and not take risks. Yang Zhi saw the other party's cleverness, all he did was to wait and observe; Yang Zhi was wary of Li Gon in his heart, everything was fine on the road, but when he returned to Bianliang, Li Gon would report to Cao Qianli, and the more he did, the more he would need to explain at that time.

Yang Zhi asked Li Gon to sit down, called Jian Ru to make a pot of tea, brought a bag of fried peanuts and a bag of jerky, and the three of them crowded into a small room, drinking tea and chatting. Jian Ru knew that Li Gon was only a nominal buddy, but actually a martial arts master, so he didn't complain about running errands at all; after all the work was done, Jian Ru sat down and took a breath and said, "Brother Yang, you have to teach me kung fu in the future, otherwise something will happen, and you won't be able to help at all." ”

Yang Zhi grabbed a handful of peanuts casually and said with a smile: "You have just started, what are you anxious about, besides, we are doing legitimate business, and you learn to watch the horses and drive the horses is the first need." Jianru, you must know that Li Gon is helping this time, and all business matters will be handed over to you in the future, and in the future, when the horse shop expands, you will be a steward. ”

"That's a good idea. Jian Ru was a little excited: "Brother Yang, if you talk to Boss Xie, I will definitely live up to your expectations." ”

Li Gon shook his head and smiled: "Jianru, you haven't seen it clearly until now, Ma Xing is the shopkeeper Yang who has the final say, and Boss Xie is just helping." ”

Yang Zhi did not shy away from saying: "We are a partnership to open a horse shop, although the money is from me, but the shares of the horse shop are half of one person, Li Gon said it doesn't matter, you can't think so." In fact, if you talk about looking at horses, Xie Shi can teach you more, and you can't be confused at this point. ”

Li Gon knew that Yang Zhi was correcting his words, so he diverted the topic: "Shopkeeper Yang, now that the horse is in hand, are you ready to go back to Bianliang?"

Li Gon imagined the difficulties he would encounter on this westward journey, but he didn't expect Yang Zhi to quietly put all this down, and he wouldn't go to Yanzhou at all, so Li Gon began to worry that it would be difficult to explain when he went back. Yang Zhi's face still didn't change lightly: "I will give you an explanation for this matter, there is no need to be embarrassed." ”

Li Gon knew that it was impossible for him to influence Yang Zhi, so he drank a cup of tea and sighed: "I don't care, the big deal is to stop picking a child! Shopkeeper Yang, your horse is in Bianliang, and there are still many things that need to be taken care of by others in the future." ”

Jian Ru couldn't understand what the two of them said, but he understood that the problem they were talking about must be very serious, so he simply buried his head and ate, ignoring nothing; Yang Zhi chewed peanuts and persuaded Li Gon with a smile: "Let's take one step at a time." Li Gon, if you leave the horse dealership, it would be best if you had a good future, otherwise, why don't you sell horses with me? You should see that Xie Shi and I still have some relationship in all aspects, and in this world, it would be good to earn a few small dollars to spend. ”

Li Gon replied briskly: "Okay, as long as you are not too burdensome, I can't ask for it, if I go back and am really scolded, I will come back to you." ”

Li Gon's answer seemed refreshing, but in fact it was ambiguous and an empty word, Yang Zhi knew it in his chest and said with a smile: "Then I'll wait for your news." ”

The three of them finished eating a bag of peanuts after chatting, and half a bag of dried meat was gone, Yang Zhi saw that the tea in the pot was gone, so he yawned and said, "It's not early, let's all sleep." ”

Li Gon and Jian Ru nodded in agreement, laughed and withdrew, Yang Zhi sat cross-legged on the bed and practiced, adjusting his breathing as evenly as possible, the biggest advantage of Hua Peng Gong is that he can settle down at any time, and he can end it with him. Yang Zhi exhaled all the turbidity and wine in his heart out of his heart and lungs, and suddenly felt comfortable and clear.

Yang Zhi stood up, walked lightly to the window, and saw that the carriage around the corner was still there, such recklessness was definitely not a means in the rivers and lakes, but the demeanor of the Western Army. The other party did not have a public conflict, is it because he is from Bianliang and is afraid that there will be a background behind him, or is it because the wild dragon Zhuoli claims to be his acquaintance?
