Chapter Seventy-Four: Flowers Are Intoxicating, and the Moon Washes Customs [I]
As soon as the words fell, the long-handled iron spoon in the shopkeeper's hand was lifted out of the pot in front of him.
A spoonful of hot soup swayed out of the spoon, drawing a graceful arc in the air. 、
The arc passed through the counter and spilled down on the crowd outside the counter.
Jin Ye stood at the front, and it stands to reason that he was the first to bear the brunt at that time.
But this arc bypassed him and went straight to Qingxueqing.
This sudden change caught Qing Xueqing off guard and stood in place.
Even the saber on his waist forgot to pull out, without the slightest dodge.
Fortunately, Wen Qiwen was quick and ripped off the shawl on Qing Xueqing's body.
Holding the corner of the shawl with one hand, with a flick of his wrist, the shawl drew a circle in the air, and the spoonful of hot soup that the store had spilled was all in it, and it trickled without spilling.
But as soon as Wen Qiwen lowered his head, he found that the shawl in his hand was gradually corroding.
"Stand back!
Wen Qiwen shouted sharply.
At the same time, he protected Qing Xueqing and quickly retreated backwards.
The pro-soldiers in the Hongzhou Prefecture Mansion immediately protected their son-in-law.
Zhang Jianlong, the government commander on the side, and the adjutant also drew their knives one after another.
Everyone was staring at the counter of this roast meat shop.
Only Jin Ye was still leaning against the counter, looking relaxed.
"Friend, it's unwise for you to act like this......
Jin Ye said.
The owner of the roast meat shop is obviously looking for trouble.
And it's not a small trouble to find.
To kill.
Fang Cai, his goal is Qing Xueqing.
However, Jin Ye knew in his heart that the other party was probably coming for himself.
The difficulty of Qingxue Qingfa is nothing more than to confuse the public.
As for who would be so aggressive against themselves, the answer is obvious.
"No way...... Each has its own suffering. As the saying goes, isn't it true that wealth is sought in danger?"
The owner of the roast meat shop said.
Slowly turned around.
It was only at this moment that everyone could see his face clearly.
But this face is better than not being able to see it clearly......
Starting from the nose, the entire lower half of the face presents an eerie distortion.
Even the mouth can't be tightly closed.
The wrong side of the eyebrows and eyelashes are gone, and the eyelids are condensed into a pimple.
When you blink, you can still reveal the white kernel inside.
This is obviously an extremely serious burn.
However, except for the face, the rest of the store's body is intact and has no scars.
This is extremely strange.
"A good rich and dangerous ......"
Jin Ye muttered to himself.
The two men were still standing at the counter, but each had a long sword in his hand.
It's not that Hongzhou doesn't have sword cultivation, it's just that there are more swordsmen.
So the blades alone are not enough to determine the identities of these two guys.
Maybe it's just like the shopkeeper, seeking a fortune in danger.
The adjutant of the government commander Zhang Jianlong sounded the order to gather all the sergeants in this town.
But the order was sounded three times, but no one responded.
"What's going on?"
Zhang Jianlong asked.
"I don't ...... under it"
The adjutant had only said half of his sentence when he felt an unbearable cramping pain in his abdomen.
Moaning softly, he bent over his stomach and clutched his stomach.
Then there was a "wow" and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
And then in the end, I can't afford it.
"Originally, with his martial arts cultivation, he could have stopped for half an hour...... It's a pity who made him greedy......"
The shopkeeper said as he looked at the lieutenant who was still convulsing on the ground.
Before Jin Ye and his party entered the town, the store had already prepared a batch of roasted meat.
And this batch of roasted meat was all eaten by the sergeants under Zhang Jianlong's order.
The rest of the sergeants ate at most a duck leg, or half a duck breast.
But the adjutant ate a whole duck.
Zhang Jianlong didn't eat because he was always dispatching back and forth in the town.
His share is still hanging in his saddle.
Zhang Jianlong looked back at the oiled paper bag hanging on his saddle with palpitations, and saw that many flies and insects rushed to the place because of the attraction of the fragrance, but in the end they all died directly under the oiled paper bag.
"Who are you! How dare you be the enemy of Hongzhou Prefecture!"
Zhang Jianlong shouted loudly and rushed forward with a knife.
Although this person has no culture, the knife in his hand is not so unbearable.
The two Hui Ouji in the counter saw Zhang Jianlong rushing over, and immediately jumped out of the counter, showing resistance.
The sword moves of these two people actually complement each other.
One person held a sword to kill Zhang Jianlong's throat, and the other swept out, completely blocking Zhang Jianlong's next plate.
So that there is no way to advance, and there is no way to retreat.
can only be nailed in place, waiting for the throat to pierce through like a rainbow through the sun.
But Zhang Jianlong is also the order of Hongzhou Prefecture, how can he be so willing to die?
For a moment, Zhang Jianlong's knees were slightly bent.
The bent knees were less than an inch away from the sweeping sword light.
Just between the lightning and flint, Zhang Jianlong's legs suddenly exerted force.
The figure jumped upward.
It's just that his legs are hacked to death at the same time, but it is uneven.
The right leg is strong, and the left leg is light.
This causes his entire body to tilt to the upper left.
In this way, he dodged the name of the throat with a sword.
The guy who stabbed straight with his sword was too late to change his moves, so he had to retract his strength a little, and watched his sword shoot into the air.
But even so, Zhang Jianlong's beard at the lower jaw was still cut off a little by the strength of this sword......
The bare skin is a blush.
Although the skin has not broken and bleeding, there is still a burning pain.
It was as if it had been doused with boiling water and burned by a raging fire.
It's just that Zhang Jianlong didn't go up to feel the pain at all at the moment.
Because he still has a sword under him.
Although his body was moving upward, the sword that was supposed to attack his knees lost its accuracy.
But in this case, he can still cut off both of his feet and ankles.
Zhang Jianlong didn't dare to be careless at all, but his body had nowhere to borrow in the air.
I saw that his feet suddenly shrank, and he actually crossed his legs in the air.
Then his eyes stared at the sword light that slashed across the soles of his feet.
When he calculated correctly, he mobilized the strength of his whole body to sink, and used a thousand pound falling body method, and his feet firmly stepped on the ground of this guy's long sword.
This is the distance between the two, just a knife away.
Zhang Jianlong raised his knife and slashed vertically at the man's large head.
The guy looked up and watched the knife light approaching without changing his face.
Just as Zhang Jianlong's sword light was about to slash at his hair crown, another fellow stepped forward with his sword and blocked Zhang Jianlong's blade.
Zhang Jianlong's offensive was blocked, and the strength in his body suddenly showed a sense of stagnation.
Then the strength of the foot has weakened a lot.
The job of being trampled on the long sword, take this opportunity to draw the sword and get out.
The other fellow, seeing that his companion was out of danger, also drew his sword and retreated.
Zhang Jianlong snorted coldly!
The knife in his hand slammed into the ground.
"Good knife technique, good body technique!"
Jin Ye said.
He even applauded.
The government order is generally a general with troops.
The fight on the battlefield is completely different from the fight in the rivers and lakes.
When the two armies were fighting, most of them rushed to block.
There will simply be no such complicated body changes and moves.
This government order is really good.
However, although Jin Ye applauded, he fell into deep thought in his heart......
With the skills of this Zhang Jianlong's government order, how could he be instantly disarmed by Wen Qiwen, who has never faced the enemy with a real knife or a real gun, at the beginning?
It doesn't make sense anyway.
The only possibility is that at that moment, he had already recognized Wen Qiwen, so he did it on purpose, which can be regarded as selling the other party's face.
But after that, Zhang Jianlong didn't seem to be fake.
This made Jin Ye puzzled.
"Looking at the skills of the two of you, it doesn't look like you're from the Anton Royal Domain. Why do you want to help the people of the Outlands and serve the tiger?!"
Zhang Jianlong asked at the two guys.
"The north and south of the rich and noble parts have always been the real chapter under the hands. Isn't it a little childish and ridiculous for Lord Fu Ling's question?"
A guy said.
"Do you two know that this behavior is already the enemy of the entire Hongzhou and the entire Zhenbei Royal Domain? If you can quickly abandon the darkness and turn to the light, you will ask for a happy death for the two of you in front of your son. ”
Zhang Jianlong said.
As soon as this sentence came out, it made the two guys laugh more than once.
Because it's not a condition at all.
Surrendering the sword in exchange for a happy death.
It's better to fight to the death with a sword.
Even if you don't get rich, I'm afraid you can escape and get a few more years of chic.
No one is a fool.
Those who eat this bowl of rice are not afraid of threats.
How could he be frightened by Zhang Jianlong's words and obediently tie his hands?
Zhang Jianlong saw that the other party regarded him as a joke, and his face suddenly turned pale, his steel teeth clenched, and he didn't say a word.
The cooperation between these two guys can really be regarded as seamless.
On his own, I'm afraid I can only get caught in a fight.
If it was in normal times, he would definitely retreat first, after all, a hero does not suffer immediate losses.
His own sergeants can't die in vain.
But today's situation has changed because of Wen Qiwen alone.
After thinking about it in his heart, Zhang Jianlong made up his mind.
Even if he was seriously injured, he had to take down the two and the shopkeeper, and the boy would be safe and sound.
This will not only be of great benefit to his future promotion, but also make Wen Qiwen, the son of the state commander, remember that he is a great favor.
"Are you Zhang Jianlong?"
At this moment, the shopkeeper, who was still standing at the counter, suddenly asked.
"This still needs to be asked? When this government order first came to this town, it was already widely announced. ”
Zhang Jianlong said.
"He's still worth a little money, if you two have a heart, take it. It's good enough to go to the Taishang River to find a painting boat and enjoy it for a few days. ”
The shopkeeper nodded.
He had a book in his hand.
It seems to have recorded the bounties offered by many people.
Jin Ye has sharp eyes.
I saw the line on the shopkeeper's finger that read: Zhang Jianlong, the order of Hongzhou Mansion in the North of the Earthquake Domain, the son of a farmer, and the top of the throne. The identities of the knife are all middle and upper, but this man and machine are multi-ended. Five thousand taels of silver.
Jin Ye smiled after reading it.
The above record is quite pertinent.
Zhang Jianlong's sword technique and body technique are not first-class.
But just by virtue of the fact that he wanted to get along with the enemy at that moment, he even broke the sword moves of these two guys in one fell swoop, which shows that this person's power of change in battle is indeed extraordinary.
"You're worth five thousand taels!"
Jin Ye said to this Zhang Jianlong, and stretched out a slap gesture.
"Haha...... If you want me to make a government order, the annual income is only more than 100 taels. I really don't know how this big head, which is not delicate, and the short, swarthy neck, are worth so much money. ”
Zhang Jianlong said with a laugh.
"No, you're not worth the price. Of the five thousand taels, it is estimated that four thousand five hundred taels are the money for your title. ”
The shopkeeper shook his head and said.
"Title?"
Zhang Jianlong said with a frown.
"It's your title for the word Decree. ”
The shopkeeper said.
"Anyway, you're still worth five thousand taels. The title is also your title, so why should you care so much?"
The two men spoke.
"I just didn't expect that this human life is really not as valuable as its name. ”
Zhang Jianlong looked up and forgot to look at the sky and said.
By this time, it was already getting a lot.
But the red sun did not rise.
The people in the town are also gradually waking up with the roosters and dogs barking.
Especially the rooster crow, one rush after another, one rush after another.
It was as if calling for an invisible force to push open the door that had been imprisoned by the night.
Suddenly, an inexplicable fragrance of flowers diluted the morning smoke and rain, and the light was smeared little by little.
The clouds of light finally joined together, and the range kept expanding in circles.
"It's dawn!"
The shopkeeper said suddenly.
"I don't like ...... dawn"
The shopkeeper continued.
Then the long-handled iron spoon in his hand waved slightly.
This time, no soup spilled from the spoon.
But it is to bring everyone back to darkness.
This hand made Jin Ye couldn't help but be shocked......
He never expected that someone would really be able to turn the world upside down and turn the sun and the moon around.
The crowd looked to the side.
It was as if he was being shrouded in a thick, sticky black shell.
The world outside the shell is still accompanied by the morning light, a piece of peace.
But in the shell, there is a well-known bloody wind in the part.
Jin Ye looked at Li Junchang.
Seeing him look up at the pitch-black top in a daze.
From the time he arrived at this roast shop, Jin Ye felt that something was wrong with Li Junchang.
Especially when he asked about the scent of the sword barbecue room.
That kind of strangeness can't be concealed no matter what.
"Are you alright?"
Jin Ye asked softly.
After Li Junchang heard this, he moved slightly, but in the end he still stood in place without a look.
At this time, the shopkeeper handed the book in his hand to Jin Ye.
Jin Ye saw the other party's hand coming towards him, although the speed was slow, he didn't dare to be careless.
He quickly straightened his body and took a step back with his right foot.
This posture allows him to retreat and protect himself, but also move forward to fight.
It's just that he doesn't know why this store wants to hand this book to himself.
The shopkeeper's hand is generally loosened when it is handed over.
"Smack"
The book in his hand fell on the counter with a crisp sound.
Jin Ye was puzzled, only to feel that a bright red came from the corner of his eye.
When I looked over, it came from a page spread out in the book.
On this page, there is a circle drawn with cinnabar.
In the circle is the name of Jin Ye.
There was no introduction, only three words were written: 100,000 taels.
"Tut-tut......"
After Jin Ye saw it, he couldn't help but be amazed.
"Think it's less?"
The shopkeeper asked.
"No...... It's too much! And it's too much!"
Jin Ye said.
"It's good to be self-aware. But if you are too modest, you are proud. ”
The shopkeeper said.
Jin Ye nodded.
Obviously, he strongly agrees with the store's statement.
There was a sound of gold and iron intersecting in my ears.
But it was those two guys who deceived him again, and fought with that Zhang Jianlong's Mansion Commander.
It seems that these two people are determined to earn the five thousand taels.
"I know your rules, so you won't tell me who paid 100,000 taels to hire you to kill me. ”
Jin Ye said.
This is an extremely interesting statement.
If Jin Ye really knows the rules, then why do you have to say it?
It's good to know the rules in your heart.
It doesn't make any sense to say it.
Jin Ye is a smart man.
But he still said it.
The meaning of this is extremely thought-provoking......
"You should be able to think of it without asking. ”
The shopkeeper said with a light smile.
Jin Ye was stunned, and then nodded with a smile.
He already knew who it was.
"I didn't tell you that, so I didn't break the rules. ”
The shopkeeper said.
"Of course not. Let's do it!"
Jin Ye kicked the counter with one kick.
The shopkeeper was holding a pot and flying out of the counter with the big iron spoon with a long handle.
Jin Ye's body swirled, and his hand pressed on the hilt.
Just as he was about to draw the knife out of its sheath, he was suddenly held down by his other hand.
Jin Ye looked up, but it was Li Junchang.
"Fifteen years ago, the Li family in Hongzhou was wiped out. Are you not there?"
Li Junchang looked at the shopkeeper with straight eyes and asked.
"It turns out that there were still fish that slipped through the net back then!"
After hearing Li Junchang's words, the shopkeeper stared at him with a frown for a while, and then said with a stretched expression.
"Are you not there?"
Li Junchang said word by word.
The words of the shopkeeper just now proved that he was indeed present that day.
But Li Junchang still stubbornly repeated the question.
He just wanted to get a definite answer from the shopkeeper's mouth.
"In. But so what?"
The shopkeeper asked rhetorically.
He didn't take Li Junchang's questioning seriously at all.
"What does that mean?"
Jin Ye asked.
At the same time, Jean wanted to move Li Junchang's hand away.
But Li Junchang's hand was like an eagle's claw, firmly clamped.
"That year, that night. I also smelled the aroma of roasted meat. The smell was exactly the same as the one coming out of the barbecue room before. ”
Li Junchang said.
Only then did Jin Ye realize that Li Junchang's strange performance was because he discovered the people present at the Li family's destruction from the fragrance of roasted meat.
"Everything else is clean, except for the smell of roasted meat, mixed with blood, which lingers for a long time. Later, in order to find the taste of this memory, I even traveled thousands of miles to the Anton Kingdom. Over there, I ate every roast restaurant I could find. So much so that for a long time later, when I heard the word roasted meat, I would involuntarily feel nauseous and nauseous. But no matter how many homes you have eaten, how many miles you have walked. The taste of those roasted meats is not the same as I remember. ”
Li Junchang said.
"It's rare for someone to be so obsessed...... It's been more than ten years, and they have never forgotten my roast. ”
The shopkeeper said.
As soon as he copied the long-handled iron spoon in his hand, he scooped out a duck leg from behind the counter.
The shopkeeper handed the duck leg forward, and Li Junchang picked it up and put it on the lower lip of his nose without saying anything.
"Don't eat it!"
Before Jin Ye could stop him, Li Junchang had already begun to bite heavily.
The first bite is quite normal......
But when the second and third mouthfuls were taken one after another, Li Junchang's eyes turned red.
Bean-sized teardrops rolled down on the pressed legs, but they were eaten by him together.
The originally sweet and soft roasted meat is dyed with a hint of saltiness.
"Rest assured, it's not poisonous. ”
The shopkeeper said.
"That's what it tastes like!"
After Li Junchang finished eating the whole duck leg by two, he put the skeleton under his nose and sniffed deeply and said.
The shopkeeper spread his hands after hearing this.
It can be regarded as a response to him.
"Tell me, what the hell was going on that day?"
Li Junchang's words almost roared and roared.
"Your friend knows the rules so well, how did he become so unreasonable to you? It seems that you have a lot to teach him!"
The shopkeeper said to this Jin Ye.
"The rules vary from person to person. Moreover, this rule is not broken. ”
Jin Ye said.
At this point, he firmly stood with Li Junchang at that time.
What's more, he was also very concerned about the fact that the Li family was destroyed overnight fifteen years ago.
After all, if that evil force has the ability to destroy the Li family, there is also the ability to destroy the Qingfu.
Although it is said that Jin Ye does not have any sense of belonging to the current Qingfu now.
But it was also his home after all.
And his father, still at home.
And how can we completely break away?
This is absolutely impossible......
"Wait, I know this knife of yours!"
The shopkeeper looked at the saber on Li Junchang's waist and said.
"Could it be the 'close to the world' that the Li family regarded as the treasure at the beginning?"
The shopkeeper then asked.
Li Junchang nodded stiffly.
"Interesting...... I'm here to make a fortune, but I've met you who is looking for revenge! Can we have a discussion?"
The shopkeeper said.
"What are you discussing?"
Li Junchang asked.
"Don't stand in the way of my wealth, and I won't stop you from seeking revenge. ”
The shopkeeper said.
"How can I be considered a good way to not be wealthy?"
Li Junchang asked.
"Don't meddle when I kill him. He is my wealth. ”
The shopkeeper pointed to Jin Ye and said.
"And then?"
Li Junchang asked sneeringly.
At this moment, his mind had stopped thinking.
"Then if you seek revenge, you will seek revenge. As for what happened...... If you get revenge, do you need to care about the stories of the past?"
The shopkeeper said.
Li Junchang ...... silently
Then he looked up at Jin Ye,
Then he shook his head at the store and said:
"He's my friend. This negotiation can't be done. ”
"Then don't blame me for not giving you a chance!"
The shopkeeper said.
The long-handled iron spoon in his hand danced again and again, rushing towards Jin Ye and Li Junchang.
A leisurely aroma of roasted meat, with the wave of this long-handled iron spoon, can't stop exuding in all directions.
Jin Ye thought of this from his nose and inhaled it into his lungs, and suddenly felt that his feet were a little fluttering.
Even standing is a little unsteady...... Began to sway slightly from side to side.
"Hold your breath!"
Li Junchang's voice came.
This made Jin Ye regain a little clarity.
