Chapter 17 Go to my sister's house to live
The Han River traverses the entire Qianghan, and the downstream where Chen Xikang is going is because of the turbulent river and the difficulty of boats, so he can only choose to go to the Jiangnan Water Town first, and then take a boat from the opened up Ling Canal.
Because of the long distance, the army is not suitable to accompany him, but the founding prince is not worried that he only has an inch of gold, so the old housekeeper in Chen's mansion also traveled with Chen Xikang on this trip.
Looking at Grandpa Li with black eyebrows and black hair beside him, Chen Xikang couldn't help but show doubts, according to what his father said, Grandpa Li is now an ancient person, but he can't see the slightest twilight in Grandpa Li, even his sideburns have never seen a trace of snow white, if it weren't for the fact that his face is a little wrinkled, he can't call Grandpa Li uncle!
However, Grandpa Li has been in the house since he can remember, although he has never heard of Grandpa Li's strength, but in this case, his strength must not be weak, after all, Lao Jin is already so powerful.
"Lord Wang, there are still three hours of travel to enter the land of Jiangnan, it is the rainy season recently, the river water is rising sharply, there is a tendency to flood, and the boats are not suitable for travel, we still live in Jiangnan first, and then go downstream. β
"It's good, the smoke and rain are like the curtain in the south of the river, and it is the most supportive. I heard that the women in Jiangnan are all small jasper, gentle and delicate, let's stay in Jiangnan for a few days, and then set off when the water is slowing down. It just so happened that the master took in a junior sister for me a few days ago, which is the little daughter in the Changyan Mansion in Jiangnan, and we went to live at my sister's house. β
Chen Xikang had no objection to Steward Li's suggestion, but agreed with great interest. Chang'an women are the most beautiful, but half of the ten Chang'an women are out of Jiangnan, if it weren't for those kind-hearted assassins who think about his head all day long, he would have ridden to Jiangnan and picked flowers with one hand!
Chen Xikang had no objection, and there was no problem with an inch of gold, riding on the back of a short mule, just grinning with a jagged big tooth, which was in stark contrast to Chen Xikang.
After deciding on the next itinerary, the three of them also sped up and headed towards Jiangnan, when the road was bumpy, Chen Xikang had to hold down the ink sword on his waist with his hand, as he continued to cross into the ink sword, the weight of the ink sword became lighter and lighter, and now it was not as heavy as when he first got it in his hand.
If the Chaoyuan meeting is over, Huang Huai has not found the whereabouts of Yang Ji, so open this ink sword.
Feeling the ink sword that became warm after injecting his true qi, Chen Xikang silently decided in his heart that he had stayed in Xiao Sanpin for too long, and he also had a fairy dream in his heart, and this dream had to be let go first.
Galloping all the way, looking at Gao Yuzhonglou who had appeared at the end of his sight, the expression on Chen Xikang's face gradually relaxed, he was vigilant all the way around, and after concentrating all the way, even if he had not taken a step on the ground, it still made him feel extremely tired.
"It's almost into Jiangnan Luocheng and you haven't made a move, these assassins can really bear it. β
Chen Xikang said and raised his hand slightly to his forehead to cover the faint sun, and looked at the capital city that appeared in front of him from a distance. He finally got out of Muping City once, how could those assassins let go of such a good assassination opportunity, before he entered Los Angeles, there would definitely be assassins!
Regarding Chen Xikang's words, Yizujin grinned as always, and Steward Li did not speak, and at this time, he could not take it lightly, and both of them were carefully guarding their surroundings.
The road that had been scorched by the scorching sun for a day kicked up dust with the rise and fall of the horses' hooves, which was clearly visible in the afterglow of the dark curtain, and the people around the road were far away because they loved to be clean, and there were also a few poor people in tattered clothes who did not bother to care about the dust raised under the horses' hooves, but just stretched out their hands and fanned them casually as the horses passed.
Los Angeles is the largest capital city in the south of the Yangtze River, almost all the people in the south of the Yangtze River live in the city, because the soil in the south of the Yangtze River is fertile, the water and grass are abundant, and the rich harvest makes the farmers still have a large amount of surplus grain after the tax, and the silver money obtained in exchange for the surplus grain promotes the rise of various industries in Los Angeles, which also makes Los Angeles lively, although it is not as good as the sleepless city of Chang'an, but it is not too bad.
Los Angeles is lively, famous far and near, there are naturally many visitors from all over the world, and the people in the city are naturally not ordinary people who have not seen the world, even if Chen Xikang is dressed in gold and precious BMW jade ornaments, but he still does not let the people who come and go pay too much attention, but his angular handsome face and fat make many slender daughters slanted umbrellas and sideways, raising their sleeves to cover their faces to hide their faces and blushing mouths.
"This Los Angeles is much more prosperous and wealthy, and there are still so many people coming in and out at this time, if it is in the west, there would have been only rumors outside Muping City. Lao Jin, you say ......"
Chen Xikang, who had already come to the city gate with Da Luo characters written on it, had not finished speaking, and the whole person's face suddenly turned pale, and the cloth-clothed person walking beside him suddenly burst out, and he would not hesitate to go towards Chen Xikang at the cost of his life!
The long sword that is extremely inconsistent with the scabbard is out of the body, and the inch of gold on the sword body looks particularly dazzling and brilliant under the sunset.
At the moment when the assassin broke out, Steward Jin and Li had already made a move, but what neither of them expected was that the assassin in front of him would be so crazy that he would hurt the prince at the expense of himself!
Looking at the sharp blade that was already close at hand, what was hidden under Chen Xikang's pale face was violence and anger, this sword could be dodged by himself, but it must not be dodged, otherwise it would only show the horse's feet!
With a ruthless heart, Chen Xikang, who was on the back of a tall horse, twisted his body slightly, avoiding the vital point of his body and preparing to bear the sword in front of him, when a dull roar suddenly broke out, and when the air wave rolled up the yellow sand, the people around him who were frightened by the sudden change were even deaf in an instant!
In the haze, but when Chen Xikang looked at the sword blade in front of him in shock, the assassin with the sword flew away in an instant, although he couldn't see it through the dust, but Chen Xikang heard the dull impact sound from the city wall in front of him!
did not stop because of Chen Xikang's shock, and after solving the assassin in front of him, Steward Li exhaled like a dragon, unarmed but pointed like a golden stone!
Because Steward Li suddenly made a move, it was not only Chen Xikang who was shocked in his heart, he felt the tingling sensation on his arm that gradually receded, and his heart also set off waves, and when Steward Li blasted the assassin away, his sword just pierced into the assassin's body, so through the sword body, he could clearly feel the horror of the blow that the old butler had just now!
He glanced at the old butler with frightened eyes, and muttered an inch of gold and went towards the other assassins, these rats are not high in cultivation, but their methods are evil, and they can't be careless.
The so-called assassins, the first hit is the same rule, this and the assassination under the Los Angeles gate happened quickly, and ended quickly, and when the people around them recovered from their panic, everything was over, but the dust that had not completely dispersed and the blood-soaked dirt on the ground told everything that had just happened.
"Grandpa Li, you should be old and strong! With such skills, if you go to fight for martial arts, you will have a place!"
Seeing Grandpa Li on the horses back beside him, Chen Xikang praised and said, he has always felt that Grandpa Li is like an immortal who doesn't care about the world, and when he saw it today, it was so!
The prince laughed, born in troubled times, it is difficult to make a living without learning kung fu. β
On the short mule, an inch of gold nodded in agreement after hearing this, in the troubled times of Great Qin, who does not have extraordinary talents, if you want to survive in that era, practicing martial arts is the most direct way.
Seeing that the three people who had just experienced such a thrilling assassination could immediately talk and laugh, the people around them who had palpitations also looked at a few people again, even an inch of gold on the back of a shabby mule was cast with awe-inspiring eyes.
I haven't eaten pork and never seen a pig run, how can the posture of the old man in ragged clothes when he took out his sword just now be comparable to ordinary people?
Shaking the dust off his robes and glancing at the four assassins who had died on the road, Chen Xikang thoughtfully rode into Los Angeles.
At Muping's time, there were people in the army, and at this time, those who wanted to kill him wouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to think that just a few minions could kill him, right?
Shadow's breath wasn't around him, and he didn't know where it went.
When Chen Xikang's master and servant entered Los Angeles and walked all the way towards Changyan Mansion, the richest in Los Angeles, a figure who stood on Los Angeles and witnessed everything left silently, and after entering the alley, they quickly headed towards Changyan Mansion.
"Your Highness, the three members of the Founding Gongzi have entered Los Angeles safely, and there are only four assassins who have appeared, but they are all cultivators of the third grade. From the brief collision, it is not clear that the founding son of the righteous son has any cultivation. β
"Got it, you go down, and don't stare at the three of them again. β
"Haven't you cultivated yourself? It seems that Yaoyue didn't talk nonsense. But there are only four assassins from the junior ranks, so why is that?"
An unbelievable smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and Chang Yanzun pushed the door out, what is the intention, I believe I will know soon, now, I have to go out to pick up the little prince in the west first. came from Muping all the way away, and he is the same senior brother as Yaoyue, so there is no reason not to come to Changyan Mansion.
"Second brother, I don't really have much friendship with Chen Xikang, and when I meet him, you will say that it is inconvenient for the house, so I will not keep him. β
"Yaoyue, this is not our hospitality. Not to mention the rest, just because the little prince of the West and the senior brother of the same sect are here, we can't turn people away, right?"
"That Chen Xikang is incompetent, relying on the founding father to act unscrupulously, and he does not seek to be motivated, mediocre, the first time he saw me, he said that he didn't like me, so I didn't want him to come into the house!"
Hearing his little sister's words, Changyan Tomb was slightly stunned at first, and then smiled with relief, he thought that the little sister had some conflict with the little prince in the west after going to the Qingguan, it turned out to be because of this grudge.
"Lao Jin, what should we do if people don't welcome us? You said that this is not in the west, and we are not easy to break in, right? In my opinion, we should spend some money to live outside, anyway, we are used to being poor in the west. β
I just heard Chen Xikang, who was said by his little sister at the door, said in a loud tone, for fear that the two people at the door would not hear his words.
"Hey, you go to live! Go out and turn left and go straight for 300 meters, there is a restaurant, enough for you to live!" Seeing the face that appeared in front of her, Changyan Yaoyue became even more angry, and the more she looked at that face, the more angry she became!
"Hahaha, please don't be surprised, you are the same door as Yaoyue, you know that Yaoyue is not sensible, don't be like her. Knowing that the little prince has entered the city, I have already ordered the cook to cook a feast, so come in quickly. β
"Although I don't have much time to get along, I also know that my sister is not sensible, so I don't know her in general. And I'm used to being poor in the West, and since I've already made dinner, I can't waste it. β
Chen Xikang said that he had dismounted, and when he came to the door, he deliberately provoked Changyan Yaoyue, who was already glaring and pouting, and was furious.
"Yaoyue!
Under the scolding of her brother, Changyan Yaoyue's fist stopped in the air, and her cannibalistic eyes glared at Chen Xikang for a moment before snorting coldly and leaving.
"Little Prince, I heard Yaoyue say that you taught your little sister for three days in Favorites, I don't know what happened between the little prince and Yaoyue in these three days, so that Yaoyue, a girl, dared to make such a rude move to the little prince. β
"Hahaha, what can happen, the master finally accepted a junior sister, I just enhanced the relationship with the junior sister. β
Seeing Chen Xikang laughing, Changyan Mound also smiled, and when several people were taken into Changyan Mansion, not far outside Luocheng, a black shadow shook off the blood on the blade in a hidden place and fled, and on the second day after Chen Xikang entered Luocheng, the news that Yubai swordsman Liu Hongqiu died outside Luocheng spread.
