Chapter 5: Uselessness in the World (5)

On the mansion of Bo Weixian, the lord of Chang'an City, Xu Qing took the steaming face towel from the maid's hand, wiped off a layer of oil on his face, and then circled his neck, and then exhaled comfortably.

After listening to the doctor's statement on Feng Jibei's injury, Wei Xian said with a cold face: "This Feng Jibei is really reckless, if you are careful, how can you be taken away by a woman from the letter in her hand?" ”

The doctor didn't dare to say anything, but the old housekeeper on the side asked, "Uncle Feng still has a few brothers, how to arrange it?"

"If you want to stay, you will stay, and if you want to go, you will go. Wei Xian waved his hand, turned his head to Xu Qing and said, "What do you think of that woman?"

"This woman must be the 'Yan Return' that is rumored in the rivers and lakes, one generation and one person, light martial arts, soft sword and softness, her martial arts have reached the fire, I want to take her down and need a hundred moves, if she wants to go, I'm afraid no one can stop her...... I really didn't expect that the small Liu Mansion would hide such a strange woman. Xu Qing knew that he had just a few more years of hard work than the other party, and he did not despise it. He thought for a while, and then said: "At present, it is best for my uncle to let the county lieutenant Qiu send out a quick arrest, first come to the door to determine the case, get rid of our suspicion, and then search for Yan in the whole city to return." ”

"If Yan returns and can be caught by these useless catchers, he will not run away from under your sword...... But that's all there is to it for now. Wei Xian had already had a draft, and casually named the murderer in this murder case of more than ten people. "Liu Fu Erniang did not keep her duty and killed the whole house, and only Xiaoding escaped. ”

He was worried that the letter was sent to Kaifeng by the other party, but he was actually very anxious in his heart, but he sat quietly for a while, thought about it, and had a new idea.

He asked, "Qing'er, in Chang'an City, who are the masters who can invite helpers in the past two days?"

Xu Qing lowered his head and thought for a moment, and said, "Chang'an Sword King Xie Ding is in the city, and his skill is still above Qing'er. There are more than a dozen good players in his family......"

"Can you keep Nayan back?"

"It's not very proper. ”

"Anything else?"

"Thousand Illusion Electric Suo Xia Yunxian, I saw her in the north of the city a few days ago, if she is still in the city, she can be found in half a day. ”

"Well, tomorrow evening, I hope to entertain these two at home. ”

"Uncle, what do you mean?"

Wei Xian took the teacup, moistened his throat, looked at the night, and said: "To make a long story short, Xiaoding of Liu Mansion has already said before, Yan Hui is the wife of Liu Fu Erlang, and she has been widowed in Liu Mansion for three years, I believe that she has no relationship with the rivers and lakes in Chang'an, and she will not know who is going to deal with them Liu Mansion, I am afraid that she will not even be able to figure out the ins and outs of the matter." ”

His eyes were slender, his fat face looked smaller, and when he squinted, only a little bit of light leaked out, like a half-unsheathed knife light, and even Xu Qing didn't want to look directly at this burst of light.

"When she gets the letter, she will definitely read it, and when she sees it, she will know that it is me, she is a strange woman with outstanding skills, will she rush to Kaifeng to complain, or stay...... Flew into my house in the middle of the night and cut off my head with a sword...... Which one do you think she'll choose?"

Wei Xian laughed, proud, the ease of solving the troubles spread on his face: "What else am I going to do with her?" waiting for her to come...... I want to see how the legless swallow flies when it returns. ”

When Xu Qing heard this, he suddenly felt his heart twitch, he suppressed the fear and discomfort that was about to rise, as if he was used to it, squeezed out a smile, and said sincerely and joyfully: "Uncle is wise!"

............

Although the north of the city is not as lively as the east of the city, it is deeply loved by people who run the rivers and lakes because of its low consumption. The people in the rivers and lakes here don't even hide their swords, they even have spears, bows and arrows, and no one cares about them.

In one of the tick columns, the storyteller tells interesting stories about the rivers and lakes of the former Tang Dynasty, which is safe, and no one can be offended. The audience doesn't make a fuss, those who drink tea drink tea, and those who talk about things talk about things. There sat a woman leaning against the outer red bar, one leg resting on a bench, her back leaning against the carved red bar, one hand pinching a flask, and the other hand occasionally winding her long hair that hung down on her chest.

A few charlatans on the side stared at her - her breasts were very high, her figure was plump, she was wearing a purple chastity dress, the hem was pleated and tasseled, the position near the side was obliquely slit, but there were no pants inside, and her bare legs were unobstructed under her knees, especially when she stepped on the stool with one leg cocked a little indecently, and the white and greasy leg meat firmly attracted the eyes of the men around her. Best of all, she wears a pair of red embroidered shoes on her feet.

Of course, there are also men who will not be tempted.

When Xu Qing walked over, his eyes didn't sweep her legs at all, he simply walked to the table, didn't sit down, and asked, "Have you made an appointment?"

"I've been waiting for a long time, but I don't think it's coming. ”

"Can you switch places with me? ”

"You know my rules. It's easy to say anything, only money is indispensable. ”

"It must be a lot. ”

She followed him out of the bar.

I don't know who scolded behind me, bitch.

Without even turning around, she waved her wide long sleeves back, and suddenly saw a cold light pass through the carved red column, shoot into the throat of a charlatan, and pass out without stopping, bringing out a small line of blood, and finally nailed to the stone wall behind the storyteller. Some of the people in the fence were still steady, some of them jumped up, and the man's companion drew his sword, but was persuaded to do so.

If you look closely, what was left on the wall that killed people in an instant was just a bright white shuttle.

Not many people use this kind of hidden weapon on the rivers and lakes, and even fewer women use it. People with a little experience can guess the identity of this murderous woman - Thousand Illusion Electric Suo Xia Yunxian.

On Wei Xian's mansion, there was a middle-aged man sitting in the middle of the reception hall, he was dressed in a gorgeous costume, like a rich man, sipping tea, and his demeanor was leisurely. Behind him, a line of quacks stood, and one of the young men closest to him held a long sword in his hand.

The long sword is held in the hand, like the most precious treasure, and of course, the shape of this sword is indeed worthy of a treasure. The nine agate embedded in the scabbard alone are worth a fortune.

When Xia Yunxian saw it when he walked in, he couldn't help laughing: "Chang'an Sword King, thank you 'senior', you are pompous, and it is okay to say that the first sword in the world is okay." ”

Xie Ding didn't care about Xia Yunxian's ridicule, only smiled and continued to taste tea.

"Yo, it's just a spring, summer, autumn and winter...... You forgot about your concubine...... It's really, so heartbreaking!"

She came to him and sat down.

Xu Qing sat opposite the two of them and said to the people waiting outside the house, "Go and invite Master Wei." ”

After he finished speaking, he turned around, and saw that Xie Ding had already put down the teacup, and one arm was stretched out in front of Xia Yunxian, and he didn't have to guess that he was touching the other party's leg. Xia Yunxian didn't stop it at all, and let him touch it with a smile.

Xu Qing sighed in his heart and said secretly: "There is no return, my peers are all dark, I am hiding alone, how can I have a confidant?"

After Wei Xian came, several people conspired and realized that everything was already in order.

In the evening, there was a banquet, and the whole Wei Mansion was noisy, and it was quiet until late at night.

Some drunk Lord Wei hugged the delicate and beautiful little lady, walked back to the bedroom, lit the lamp, opened the bed tent, he hugged the little lady, and laughed: "The few actions I said during the banquet are really okay? I don't believe it, come, wait for me to fight with you for three hundred rounds, see if I am a big bird, or if you are deep!"

The little lady was not shy at all, she blushed and pretty, but kissed him on the mouth, which made him take off his coat in a hurry and break his belt.

At this moment, a big swallow seemed to fly in from outside the house, and the swallow's beak held a sword with white light!

Jiang Shouhua still came, she hid in the city, opened the envelope, and was expected by Wei Xian, so she came to take revenge that night.

But what greeted her was a complete disaster.

The little lady who was held in Wei Xian's arms shook her hand and hit a shuttle, she was clever again, and she was defenseless, but she couldn't dodge, and was hit by the shuttle in the left shoulder socket, and the castration stopped. Xia Yunxian's flushed face became murderous in an instant, she pulled out a short sword from her sleeve, opened Jiang Shouhua's sword body and stabbed at Wei Xian, and hit out with her other hand, which was caught by Jiang Shouhua with her palm, borrowed her palm power, and flew out of the room backwards. Xia Yunxian didn't chase after her, her task was to injure the other party, protect Wei Xian, and chase down people, Xie Ding and Xu Qing.

The shuttle is pointed at both ends, the middle is empty, it has been used on the loom as early as the Warring States Period, and the people of the Han Dynasty have used the shuttle as a hidden weapon. This kind of hidden weapon is very vicious, just because it is hollow, there is an inlay in the inner corner, once it enters the human body, it will form a huge wound, it is difficult to stop the bleeding at the wound, and if it is pierced by the shuttle in the fight, it can be fatal soon.

Jiang Shouhua knew that she was powerful, and after fighting with the woman in the house with just one move, she knew that it would be difficult to kill Wei Xian in a short time, so it was the best policy to go first.

But when she flew up to the eaves, she was greeted by a sword light that pierced the sky.

Seriously injured, she took a sharp breath of true qi, and actually turned around in mid-air, dodging the long sword, like a swallow, light and fast, one turn over is three zhang away, Xu Qing swung a sword, seeing such a peerless body, he couldn't help but be stunned, and forgot to pursue.

But when she landed in the courtyard, more than a dozen people surrounded her in an instant, and the sword light in her hand attacked her like an explosion! She still had strength to spare, pulled herself up, dodged the siege of the swords in a thousand moments, and jumped to the west roof.

In the air, her heart had sunk.

It was only because there was a middle-aged man standing on the roof, his sword was not unsheathed, and he just watched in silence as she leaped over.

He waited until she was about a foot or so, and was about to set foot on the roof, before he drew his sword.

This sword, like a bolt of lightning, just saw him draw the sword, the tip of the sword has been pierced to the waist, the position of his stab, it seems that it is useless to dodge, she can only block, but people in the air, there is nowhere to borrow strength, a breath of true qi has been exhausted, how can it be blocked?

First use a hidden weapon to injure Yan and return, and then let Xu Qing intercept it, even if he can't stop it, the last blow can be guaranteed to be foolproof.

Xie Ding, the sword king of Chang'an, Xu Qing, an iron sword scholar, and Xia Yunxian, a thousand illusion electric shuttle who took money to do things, conspired with this wonderful plan.

It's a pity that what they encountered was Yan Returning.

Since the end of the Han Dynasty, one generation after another, the Yan that has been passed down to the present day has returned.

The sword in Jiang Shouhua's hand suddenly became gentle, as if the lightning in front of her, no matter how powerful it was, it was just a candlelight stroked by her fingertips-the soft sword circled around Xie Ding's long sword, like a scabbard, although the sword couldn't be dodged or blocked, but when it pierced her body, it couldn't enter the body.

The internal strength on Xie Ding's sword was like an angry tide breaking through the embankment, and the huge waves were raging in her meridians.

She spat out a mouthful of blood, and on her face as beautiful as a fairy, there was a little blood and water, which looked particularly poignant.

A breath of true qi was brought up again, this time it was Xie Ding's sword momentum that was exhausted, and she shook off the long sword, she flew up, and in the blink of an eye, she had already disappeared into the dark alleys of Chang'an City.

Xu Qing came to him and said insincerely: "It's a pity that she escaped." Sword King, why don't you chase it?"

Xie Ding returned the sword to the sheath and said with a sneer: "After receiving a sword that I concentrated on all my strength, she couldn't run far...... Unless there is a supreme master to heal her injuries, she will not live to sunrise tomorrow. ”

Xu Qing said: "I hope so. Xu took someone to go first!"

Several figures jumped over the wall and chased after them.

The moonlight was weak, but she could still see the near distance, Jiang Shouhua ran for a while with light skills, her footsteps slowed down, as soon as she used her internal strength, her waist began to hurt, her body breath was chaotic, and she vomited a mouthful of blood. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to insert Yan Guilai into the sword holster on her waist, but she tried several times before she succeeded, her hands trembled terribly, and what was even more terrifying was that the light in front of her was darkening little by little...... She knew that it was caused by an internal injury, and that the wound on her shoulder needed to be stopped by a good hemostasis, and that she had to lie still to stop it, but the enemy would catch up at any moment......

She stumbled, and after a while, she couldn't see her surroundings at all.

When she was about to fall, she felt that she had hit the arms of a tall body, the other party's body was very warm, and her voice was gentle and powerful, and she said slowly: "Girl, you are injured...... Hold on, I'll take you back to heal. Her injuries were so severe that when she heard this, she was relieved and fainted.

............

She didn't know what time it was, her whole body was hot, her mouth was dry, her eyes were blurry, she vaguely saw that the place she was in was a small room, she reached out and touched the wound on her shoulder, which had been very carefully bandaged, she turned her head slightly, and saw a woman sitting next to the bed, who was happily saying to her: "You are finally awake! The wound on your shoulder was taken care of by me, and it is no longer a big problem." But if you are bleeding too much and are having a fever, the fever will get better. ”

As she spoke, the woman stirred up a wet towel from a wooden basin and wiped her face.

The door was pushed open and a man walked in, and although she couldn't see it last night, she had a gut feeling that this man had saved her.

"Zimo below, I saw that the girl was seriously injured last night, and Xu Qing was chasing you with someone behind, so I took you back to my house first. Fang Zimo pointed to the woman sitting next to the bed and said, "She is an insider, Zhang Qingzi." ”

She moved her mouth and said softly, "Thank you both." ”

"What you have on your shoulder is a flying shuttle, and there are only thousands of magic electric shuttles in Chang'an recently, so it doesn't matter if you can recuperate from this injury...... Girl, your second bridge between heaven and earth is broken, the internal breath cannot be transported away, the three meridians are injured, the dantian is stagnant, and it is not easy for you to cross the qi for a week, and it is estimated that it will take more than a month to heal the internal injury. ”

She had actually noticed her injury, the internal injury was more serious than she imagined, she couldn't imagine that the other party actually had this skill to help her cross the qi and connect to the second bridge of heaven and earth every day, and then think again, in the end, the name of this man is the impression in her memory.

"Thank you, it turns out that you are Lingyun Sword Immortal. ”

"People in the rivers and lakes, there is no need to say thank you. ”

She struggled violently a few times, Zhang Qingzi hurriedly held her down, and said, "Be careful of the wound bursting!"

"There is a letter on my little sister, I want to ask the Xinyi League to help me send it to Kaifeng, it is related to the bloody case of more than ten people in the Liu Mansion!"

"What's in the letter?"

"The evidence of the Lord Bo Weixian's crimes, as long as it is sent to the hands of Yushi Zhongcheng, our Liu family's blood feud will be avenged!"

"Don't worry, we will deliver the letter!" Zhang Qingzi could fully imagine what happened to the other party, she couldn't see it, couldn't bear it, and agreed with her mouth.

Fang Zimo is well-informed, he has long learned about the murder in Liu's Mansion, and the arrest of the whole Chang'an is tracking down the murderer Jiang in Liu's Mansion, and then inadvertently saving the other party last night, it is not difficult to deduce the general situation.

"Being able to convict Wei Xian is a chivalrous act, and it is my generation's responsibility. Girl, you went alone to take revenge, your courage is commendable, but you did something wrong. The people in the rivers and lakes also need to pay attention to the fact that the people do not fight with the officials...... It is to let you succeed, and you have become a murderer...... When others look at you, there is no reason to speak of it after all. You have both Wei Xian's incriminating evidence and a way to hand it in, so why take the risk?"

Zhang Qingzi didn't like him to be serious, opening his mouth was the big reason, he waved his hand and said, "Okay, she still has to rest, you go first." ”

Fang Zimo glanced at her, only nodded, and walked out with a lot of concern.

Walking through the winding corridor and passing through a small sea of bamboo, he looked at the martial arts training ground and looked at the brothers of the Xinyi League who were practicing swords, his expression was solemn, and he turned to say with a sense of humor: "The great trouble of the sky is to practice the sword, and it will be all right." ”

When he and a brother walked a set of swordsmanship, they put away their swords and turned back, and their troubles were gone.

Even if there is, when he sees people standing outside the field, he can be heartily happy and happy.

Because there are very few people in the world who can be his brothers, and there is only this one who can be the best and best brother.

When they were young, they were so graceful, so chic and free, so heroic and masculine, they laughed together, cried together, won together, and failed together......

Although they parted ways, the memories of that time were irreplaceable, even if they met more people and more things later.

"Yunsheng, come, come into the house and drink tea. Fang Zimo handed the sword to the young man and took Ye Yunsheng's hand.
