Even Huo Wang, walking on only two legs, couldn't catch up with the fast horse.

And he was reluctant to unfold his body to track down.

Just like this, I walked forward with a casual mentality.

He passed by a restaurant.

It's time for dinner.

The family is crowded, bustling, and lively.

Huo Wang touched his stomach.

In front of the Yangchun noodle stall before, he was a little moved.

It's just that he doesn't like noodles, and he's not as hungry as he is now, so he still holds back.

But when he smelled the smell of wine and rice coming from this restaurant, he walked in a ghostly way.

There were no waiters standing at the door of the restaurant to greet guests.

It's just an ordinary restaurant.

It is only four walls and one roof than the Yangchun noodle stall.

But it's not that high-grade.

There is only one junior in the hall.

Busy before and after running.

The menu and wine list are written on a wooden board with a pen.

The board hangs right next to the counter.

Huo Wang looked at the plank.

It's all looking for very ordinary dishes.

The most expensive, I'm afraid it's the steamed osmanthus fish.

Huo Wang remembered that he didn't drink fish soup when he was with Ye Wei.

I thought that maybe I could watch the scene where he got stuck in a fish bone again, but it didn't happen.

But now, he really wants to drink fish soup.

Especially stewed with freshly slaughtered fish.

In the milky white soup, more than a dozen pieces of tofu are neatly stacked.

When the soup is finished, the whole body of the fish is revealed.

It's not just delicious.

It looks like it's been painted.

"You're a live fish?"

Huo Wang asked at the shopkeeper.

"Of course! I'll tell you, guest officer! This osmanthus fish in our shop is a famous dish in Wangcheng! The garlic clove meat is tender and smooth, and the hot oil juice poured after steaming can enhance the flavor the most! Although it is not a big restaurant, this dish will let our family gain a firm foothold in this royal city for 30 years!"

Xiao Er said.

There is a lot of pride between the words.

Huo Wang nodded.

He has always touted it like this, and it will definitely not be bad.

He looked around.

I found that almost everyone in the audience had a plate of steamed cinnamon fish on the table.

"Good!"

Huo Wang nodded and said.

"Guest officer, would you like to have one?"

Xiao Er asked.

"I want a fish soup. ”

Huo Wang said.

“...... Okay!"

Xiao Er was stunned for a moment before he reacted and replied.

He thought that he had blown all the steamed osmanthus fish into the sky and boasted of the flowers.

And this guest officer also said a good word.

But what kind of fish soup did you order?

But he was also quite helpless about this.

This profession is the work of serving.

Huo Wang then remembered that he didn't have any money with him.

He smiled and shook his head.

I thought that I already knew about this before the sugar man stall, but why did I fall into this restaurant again?

But it's too late to leave.

After all, this dish has already been ordered.

If you want to return.

Xiao Er will definitely say that this fish has been slaughtered and is about to be put into the pot.

But this fish soup is a slow job.

I'm afraid I won't be able to eat for half an hour.

So Huo Wang still has plenty of time to imagine the question of how to settle the bill.

No matter how bad it is, he will keep himself here.

Write a note and ask this little two to go to the palace to get the silver.

But in that case, he would not be able to continue to wander around so carefreely.

In less than two hours.

The whole royal city will spread all over him, and the king of Dingxi is actually paying a private visit to Weifu.

Even what style of shoes he wore and what color of clothes he wore would be clearly described.

So that's the next step.

It must not be used until it is absolutely necessary.

As the saying goes: A penny is not a hero.

Ancient books once recorded that one of the founding generals of a certain dynasty was depressed when he was young.

even openly sold horses in the downtown area, in order to be able to eat a full meal.

Huo Wang introspected for a moment.

But he didn't even have a horse.

But the tie around his waist is a good thing.

With the texture and embroidery, it can be worth a fish soup.

Thinking of this, Huo Wang was not in a hurry.

He even looked at the wooden sign again.

Because he wanted to drink some wine again.

Fish soup with sake broth.

A timeless aftertaste, a spicy and unrestrained.

It's also very out-of-the-box when put together.

Huo Wang had never eaten like this before, but today he wanted to give it a try.

When people drink alcohol, they are often in a hurry to swallow it.

After all, no one wants to take this soup in their mouth.

If you do this, you have to squirt it out of your nose.

Just when Huo Wang was waiting for his fish soup with peace of mind.

But there was another person in the restaurant.

The man was wearing an old robe.

He wears a tattered hat on his head.

The edges of the hat were in tatters.

It has long been impossible to shelter from the wind and rain.

At most, it can only cover the sun,

Even in the Dingxi Royal Domain, the weather is getting warmer now.

No one would wear such a heavy robe.

Huo Wang saw that he was also wearing a pair of cotton boots under his feet.

There are holes in the toe and heel.

The cotton wool inside is exposed.

It's no longer pure white, but all charcoal.

It's just that he has a sword in his arms.

An extremely delicate and noble sword.

The pattern on the scabbard is very elegant.

The hilt of the sword is also inlaid with dense pearls.

This sword really didn't match his outfit.

But his identity is also clear with this sword.

He was a swordsman.

However, whether a swordsman is downcast or not cannot be judged by what he wears.

Maybe he's extremely wealthy, but he just likes it.

Because swordsmen always wear their most comfortable clothes.

In this way, you will not feel any restraint when you draw your sword.

But Huo Wang didn't think that it would be a restrictive thing for anyone to wear such a thick fit in such weather.

Especially swordsmen.

The swordsman is a martial artist.

Wu Xiu's adaptation to the cold and heat of this weather is much more powerful than ordinary people.

The elderly of ordinary families may not have put on single clothes now because of their old age and frailty and lack of yang energy.

But this man's age must not be very old.

Huo Wang could tell from his hand.

Maybe it's the same age as me.

The swordsman walked into the hall.

He lifted his hat and looked around.

His eyes were languid.

There was no spirit at all.

Nor should a swordsman have the look.

Whether a swordsman has a sword in his hand or not, his gaze should be straight and sharp.

It won't be as purposeless as this.

Huo Wang smiled.

An extremely funny thing comes to mind.

Maybe he stole the sword.

Perhaps it is ancestral.

He was going to sell the sword for a good price.

Sell one for the price of at least a good meal and a refreshing drink.

But it's different from the general selling horses.

People are real heroes.

This man is just a mercenary man.

Huo Wang withdrew his gaze.

He had no interest in this man.

Instead of wasting time guessing his identity, it is better to study the meaning of the bells and whistles on the wine list.

However, his gaze was suddenly blocked.

What caught my eye was an old and heavy robe.

The swordsman was standing opposite Huo Wang at this time.

"The seats in the hall are full, I wonder if Mr. would like to share a table under him?"

The swordsman spoke.

He took off his hat, held his sword, and bent slightly.

It's a polite salute.

Huo Wang didn't expect that he was such a polite person, and it was difficult to refuse at the moment, so he could only nod.

When the swordsman saw Huo Wang's answer, he smiled and sat down.

He put the sword in his arms and sat down.

The hat was placed in the empty half next to the stool.

"Shopkeeper, take two jugs of good wine!"

The swordsman said aloud.

His voice was loud.

Full of neutrality.

When the wine came up, two gleams shot out of his eyes.

But it is a sweep away the previous decadence and laziness.

Huo Wang felt a little disdain in his heart.

Although he also drinks.

But far from that.

Looking at this man's eyes, he must be a drunkard.

Rather than calling him a swordsman, it would not be more appropriate to say that he was an alcoholic.

However, this drunkard swordsman divided his two pots of wine into a pot of wine and pushed it in front of Huo Wang.

Huo Wang was puzzled and looked at him quietly.

He pointed to the jug of wine, and then to himself.

"Let's drink together!"

The drunkard swordsman said.

He had already picked up the flask and gulped it down several times.

Huo Wang looked at the wine with a smile, and then glanced at the wine list.

I don't know which one of the above corresponds to this pot of wine.

"It's not on the wine list. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

also glanced at Huo Wang by the way.

"Why isn't this wine on the wine list?"

Huo Wang asked.

"Because it's good wine. Good wine is not written openly. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

"If you don't write about good wine, won't anyone know about it from time to time like a pearl?"

Huo Wang asked suspiciously.

"Good wine can only be drunk by those who know how to drink. If it is written clearly, many rich people who don't know how to drink at all will order it just because of the high price. That's even more wasteful. ”

The drunkard swordsman pouted and said.

"Looks like you know a lot about wine. ”

Huo Wang said.

He didn't drink like this drunkard swordsman.

Instead, he poured it into a cup and took a sip.

I have to say.

This wine is indeed good.

Although it is not as good as the treasured wine in the palace of Huo Wang.

But it can also afford the word 'good wine'.

The entrance is soft at first.

Then, like a small sword, it shuttled through its mouth.

When this wine turned into a sword and was about to burst out, Huo Wang swallowed it in one gulp.

The wine became a ball again, and as soon as the smoke slipped away, it rolled down and fell into the stomach.

"Good wine indeed!"

Huo Wang put down his wine glass and said in admiration.

"Naturally it's good wine!"

The drunkard swordsman said.

"It's a pity that I don't know as much about wine as you do. ”

Huo Wang shook his head and said with a sigh.

"But you know the sword. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

"Why do you say I know swords?"

Huo Wang asked in surprise.

He was dressed in a very civil manner.

He was not accompanied by a sword.

Even the temperament of the whole body is put away, as if it is a different person.

"Because you've always glanced at my sword every now and then. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

"Because your sword is beautiful and makes me feel funny. ”

Huo Wang said.

"It's not my sword. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

Huo Wang's heart moved.

I felt that my previous thoughts were correct.

"This is the sword of a great beauty!"

The drunkard swordsman said.

I don't know if the expression on my face is relaxed because I drink or because I am intoxicated by the memories.

"Why is the sword of the great beauty in your hand?"

Huo Wang asked.

"You want to say, how could a big beautiful woman with such a luxurious sword give me this called Hanako, right?"

The drunkard swordsman said.

Huo Wang smiled.

That's exactly what he meant.

It's just that he didn't say it.

If you can't say it in another way, it will make a big difference.

In the past, Huo Wang didn't know this.

But as he became one of the Five Kings, the cunning and treacherous words of the words were indeed self-taught, and became more and more sophisticated.

"It's not just you, everyone who has seen me along the way has probably thought so. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

But it reveals an open-mindedness that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve.

Huo Wang admired him a little at this time.

Even if he was a drunkard, even if he didn't know how to use a sword.

But with his open-mindedness, it is also worth letting Huo Wanggao take a look.

"You're from far away?"

Huo Wang asked.

"It's not far. Zhenbei Royal Domain. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

"It seems to be warming up there, too. ”

Huo Wang said.

The implication is that he seems to be wearing a bit too much.

"It's all I have. And he took off his robe and spread it on the ground at night. It is both a bed and a quilt. I'm the one who wears all the quilts on my body. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

He craned his neck and drank the rest of the wine in one gulp.

Then he raised his hand high and snapped his fingers.

The little second brother understood and served him another pot of the same wine.

"You're here a lot?"

Huo Wang asked.

Seeing this scene, he felt that only regular customers would be like this. "Just like you, for the first time. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

Huo Wang was silent.

This man first said that he knew the sword, and then said that he was also the first time to come to this restaurant.

Is it so easy for others to see through?

"Those who come to the restaurant alone in broad daylight must be people who have something on their minds. People who have something on their minds don't want to talk to people, and they don't want to be disturbed, so they will naturally look for a secluded place. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

He was explaining to Huo Wang how he could see that he was also here for the first time.

"So you have something on your mind, too?"

Huo Wang asked.

"I don't have anything on my mind. But there's one important thing. ”

The drunkard swordsman lowered his voice and said mysteriously.

"Guiyu soup!"

The little second brother sang the name of the dish and brought the fish soup that Huo Wang had ordered earlier.

But it was served in a small casserole.

Placed directly in the middle of the table.

The heat is steaming and the aroma is tangy.

Huo Wang wanted to continue to ask him what was important, but now all his thoughts were hooked by this fish soup.

"You invite me to drink, I invite you to fish soup. ”

Huo Wang pointed to the small casserole and said.

"I drink and don't eat. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

Although Huo Wang felt strange, everyone had different habits, but they couldn't be forced.

He used chopsticks to pick out all the tofu in the small casserole and put it in a bowl.

"I ordered fish soup, why don't you drink it?"

The drunkard swordsman asked.

"The freshest flavor in the soup is absorbed by the tofu. Therefore, eating tofu directly is more delicious than drinking soup. ”

Huo Wang said.

"I don't see it, you're a glutton, too. ”

The drunkard swordsman leaned back and said.

Not only did he not eat when he drank.

I don't even want to smell the food.

"I eat from time to time...... It's just that when I was poor, I was able to catch a few small fish from the stream and add a piece of tofu to stew it, which was already a good dish. ”

Huo Wang said.

"No wonder ......"

The drunkard swordsman nodded deeply.

"What's the wonder?"

Huo Wang had just eaten a piece of tofu.

looked at the other party's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and asked.

"People have very strong memories of suffering or what happened in the past. Although at the time it may not have been very fond of, or even full of hatred. But when I think about it at the end, I wish I could do it again. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

Huo Wang did not answer.

He didn't care if Huo Wang would respond.

Because his eyes were already on the door.

"So what's your priority?"

Huo Wang felt a little embarrassed by the cold scene, so he had to find a topic and continue.

The two of them have already shared a table.

Even if it is except for the door of this restaurant, I will never see you again in this life.

At least the meal has to be eaten with a smile and a smile.

"I'm here to kill. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

Huo Wang's heart was a little cold......

Obviously, this person is quite interesting.

Why did you want to come to your own Dingxi royal city to kill people?

"Who are you going to kill?"

Huo Wang asked.

"Huo Wang. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

Huo Wang stared straight into his eyes.

He knew he heard him right.

But no matter what, he couldn't believe that this man was actually coming to kill himself.

And it seems that he doesn't even know what he looks like.

How could such a coincidence happen in the world?

When Huo Wang casually walked into a small restaurant, he said that he had an important matter with the person who shared the table with him.

But the most important thing is to kill yourself.

What's even more rare is that this person even told himself without concealment that the person he was going to kill was Huo Wang.

Even if this drunkard swordsman didn't share the table with Huo Wang, let him casually say that he wanted to kill Huo Wang, but he was also guilty of rebellion and had to be decided.

But when Huo Wang saw his appearance, he didn't care at all.

When the word Huo Wang is spoken, it is no different from killing a chicken and a dog.

Is he really capable of this, or is he just a person who has reached such a state?

"Why did you kill Huo Wang?"

Huo Wang asked.

"To be famous......

The drunkard swordsman shook his head in embarrassment.

"There are many people who want to kill Huo Wang. Some covet his rights, others covet his wealth. It's the first time I've heard of someone killing him to make a name for himself. ”

Huo Wang poured himself a bowl of fish soup and said.

"Because the man who gave me this sword made me famous for three years. This year is already in its third year. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

"You're from the Zhenbei King Domain, why don't you kill the Zhenbei King, but instead you have to be so reluctant?"

Huo Wang asked.

"Because the person who gave me this sword is the person from the Zhenbei King's Domain. I have sworn that in this life, I will not kill a single person in the Zhenbei Royal Domain, nor will I destroy a single grass or tree in the Zhenbei Royal Domain. I'll tell you the truth. I was in the Zhenbei Domain, walking barefoot, and sleeping only against the wall. I'm afraid I'll crush the turf. ”

The drunkard swordsman said.

"Isn't the closest place to the Zhenbei Domain the Dingxi Domain? The most famous person in the Dingxi Domain is not Huo Wang, the King of Dingxi? ”

The drunkard swordsman nodded his head and said.

Huo Wang didn't know what to say.

After all, the other party is here to kill himself.

No one will have much to say to someone who wants their own life.

But he wanted to know what magic the man who gave him the sword was.

It was able to force him to walk barefoot and sleep without lying down in the Zhenbei King Domain.

————————

Inside the Bogu Building.

Divitai's residence.

The wine is empty.

People are scattered.

Liu Ruiying returned to her residence.

The story of the 'invisible knife' is not finished.

But he told Liu Ruiying very clearly that the things he wanted to investigate were all done by his former partner, senior brother, Leyouyuan's Kanyuan, Shen Qingqiu.

Liu Ruiying has seen Shen Qingqiu's power.

He is categorically not his opponent.

Fortunately, Di Weitai looked at the face of Liu Jinghao, the king of Qingzhong, and wrote a letter, in which he explained the reason.

What Liu Ruiying has to do is to hand in this letter step by step after she goes back.

Xiao Jinkan sat across from him.

Huanon is also there.

But Liu Ruiying was in no mood to deal with them.

Thinking that his hard work and hard work finally got an ethereal name and two pieces of paper, he sneered and felt worthless for himself.

Xiao Jinkan did not disturb Liu Ruiying.

But he dipped his fingers in the wine and kept writing on the table.

It's just that he writes so fast that I'm afraid that no one but himself will be able to read and understand it.
