Chapter 226: No small trouble
The next day, at dawn.
Yesterday's downpour has stopped, there are still small puddles in the sand pit near the inn, some strange little fish don't know where to get out, are swimming comfortably in the small puddle, there are still small fish in the desert, this is a bit incredible, but this is the case, people have to sigh at the wonder of nature and the magic of creation.
After breakfast, Zhou Huai'an found the gold inlaid jade, and after some bargaining, he finally took out five hundred taels of silver, so that the gold inlaid jade reluctantly sent them out of the customs.
The secret passage out of the customs was under the underground of the Longmen Inn, and after Zhou Huai'an, Qiu Moyan and others entered the secret passage, they never came out, and even the gold and jade did not show up in the inn.
"Boss, this situation is not readable!"
In the inn, Lu Xiaochuan found Jia Ting and said softly: "It's been a long time, the female shopkeeper hasn't shown up, and Jin Zhuyu and the others haven't shown up, have they really fled?"
Jia Ting's face was gloomy, and he said, "I should have left a long time ago!"
"So what are we going to do?
"Chasing, where are you going to chase? Do you dare to chase? Our uncle is still sitting here, do you dare not listen to him?"
Lu Xiaochuan thought of Li Xiake's words yesterday, and his heart was cold: "Do you want them to leave like this?" Zhou Huai'an is the person named by the Governor, this time he mobilized thousands of Black Flag troops in order to deal with this person, and now that he has escaped under our eyes, the Governor is going to punish us!"
Hearing the word "punishment", the corners of Jia Ting's eyes twitched, and his eyes showed fear: "With Li Xiake, a peerless master, in the way, I believe that the Guild understands our situation! Even if we are punished, it is better than being killed!"
Cao Tian next to him said in a low voice: "Will Li Xiake really wait for the arrival of the Duke of Governor here as he said?"
Jia Ting was stunned: "What do you mean?"
Cao Tian said: "Only a fool will wait here for our army to arrive, I am afraid that after Zhou Huai'an and the others leave, Li Xiake will also take the opportunity to escape, maybe he will attack us before leaving, and we will be in danger at that time!"
Jia Ting shook his head and said, "If Li Xiake wanted to attack us, I'm afraid we would have died a long time ago, and he didn't need to be so troublesome." β
Cao Tian said: "Is he really just here obediently waiting for the arrival of the Governor? Anyway, I don't believe it, he must have other ideas." I won't believe that a person dares to resist the thousands of elites of our Black Flag Army!"
Jia Ting pondered for a moment and said, "What is Li Xiake doing now?"
Cao Tian said: "It seems that he is watching someone help him cut meat." β
"Cut meat, what kind of meat?"
In the hall of the Dragon Gate Inn, Diao Buyu, a butcher under Jin Jiyu, was holding a kitchen knife with a strange shape like an axe, removing the meat from the roast sheep for Li Xiake.
A slight sound sounded from the hall, and the kitchen knife in Diao Buyu's hand swam along the bones and muscles of the roast sheep like mercury, and the kitchen knife in his hand was like a living thing in his hand, wandering on the roast sheep.
Li Xiake sat at the wine table, his eyes looked at Diao Buyu's palm holding the knife without blinking, his face flowed with amazement, and he muttered: "Ku Ding is very easy to solve the cow, and I didn't understand what this sentence meant until this moment." β
Just when he was admiring, Diao Buyu had already put away the kitchen knife and said to Li Xiake: "Master, I have already cut it!"
Li Xiake turned a deaf ear, staring at the mutton in front of him, his mind had flown elsewhere, and his mind couldn't help but simulate the action and technique of cutting meat just now, the more he pondered, the more he felt powerful, this meat-cutting technique was natural, and he followed the trend, just like the flow of water forward, after encountering obstacles, he would naturally turn to other places, and then look for gaps, pervasive, but where there is a weak point, it is the point of breakthrough.
The truth is wonderful.
"Good knife skills!
Li Xiake sat for a long time, stretched out his hand, snatched the kitchen knife in Diao Buyu's hand, and the cold light flashed, and he thought of the mutton on the iron plate on the table. In the light of the sword, the pieces of mutton that had been divided turned into smaller pieces of meat, and almost in a few breaths, Li Xiake had already divided all these pieces of meat into two halves.
"I'm still not as good as you!"
The knife light disappeared, Li Xiake stood with a kitchen knife in his hand, shook his head and sighed: "I can't do it as naturally as you, I'm too deliberate!"
Diao Buyu said with a foolish head: "Master, this is already good, I have been practicing this knife technique since I was a child, and I have only learned to use a knife now." β
Just looking at this person's expression and demeanor, it is hard to imagine that the dead people in the Longmen Inn were chopped into bun stuffing by him, this guy estimated that the living environment caused him not to feel that killing people and chopping meat stuffing was a vicious thing, in his eyes, cutting people and cutting sheep seems to be no different, they are all meat, but the shape is different.
"Diao Buyu, I'll find you a career in the future, you will specialize in killing pigs and sheep, don't do it after killing, kill too many people, and when you get old, you should be a little uncomfortable." β
Li Xiake glanced at the naΓ―ve Diao Buyu, and said with a smile: "I see that your internal skills are shallow, and your light skills are almost none, but you have figured out such a set of knife techniques without a teacher, and you are really a peerless genius." In terms of talent, Zhou Huai'an and Qiu Moyan are not as good as you!"
Diao Buyu smiled, scratched his head, and listened with a blank face, he didn't understand what Li Xiake said.
At this time, the sound of footsteps on the stairs came, Jia Ting and the others rushed down, and after coming to the hall, Jia Ting arched his hand and said: "Li Daxia, we have to go back to the Duke and tell him what you are doing in the inn, so that he can decide." If you don't have any orders, we're going to take our leave!"
Li Xiake saw that they looked nervous, Cao Tian, Lu Xiaochuan and the others' clothes bulged slightly, and at a glance, the true qi ran to the extreme, Cao Tian's eyes were about to bulge, staring at Li Xiake tightly, and his body was trembling slightly.
"Go ahead. β
Seeing that they were nervous like this, Li Xiake laughed and waved his hand: "Tell Cao Shaoqin that I will wait for him here for three days, and if he doesn't come within three days, I will go to him in person!"
Jia Ting and the others bowed down: "This sentence, we will definitely bring it to the Duke!"
After walking out of the inn, cold sweat rolled down Jia Ting's forehead, looked around, and shouted in a low voice: "Let's go! This Li Xia Ke really didn't kill us, it's really strange!"
Lu Xiaochuan said: "He won't really be waiting for us, will he?"
Cao Tian snorted, drew his sword to cut off the reins of a camel, turned over on the camel, and shouted: "What do you want to do so much? If he wants to keep us, no one can escape!"
Seeing these people from Dongchang leaving, some of the guys in the Longmen Inn were a little nervous, and the bookkeeper walked up to Li Xiake, nodded and said, "Master, is this Dongchang's army really coming back?"
Li Xiake glanced at the account room and said: "Then it depends on Cao Shaoqin's mood, if he wants to arrest me, then he will definitely come, if he doesn't want to provoke me, he will naturally not come." β
He smiled and said: "If I stand in Cao Shaoqin's position, I won't come, just a fanatic, how can I work Dongchang Governor to take action personally? β
The bookkeeper and the guys all breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good if you don't come, our inn will definitely not be able to open!"
The next day when they breathed a sigh of relief, the earth suddenly shook, and the smoke and dust billowed in the distance of the inn, like a sandstorm, and pieces of black and oppressive things were like ant colonies, thinking that the Longmen Inn was rushing quickly.
Li Xiake came to the open space in front of the inn, and walked forward slowly, before he took a few steps, the "ant colony" in the distance was already a few points closer, and the guys in the inn climbed to the second floor to look forward, and were frightened: "Cavalry! There are a lot of cavalry! Big guys, hide! Run!"
When Li Xiake came to a small sand dune in front of the inn, a group of black-clothed cavalry had arrived not far in front of him, these cavalrymen were like emotionless iron men, and they had already drawn their bows and crossbows as soon as they saw Li Xiake, and then hundreds of feather arrows flew towards Li Xiake at the same time.
Puff puff!
Li Xiake did not dodge or dodge, let these feather arrows shoot on him, his body shook slightly, and said with a smile: "What a great strength, the black cavalry team, worthy of its reputation!"
In the surprised expressions of these knights, Li Xiake slowly walked forward.
More than a dozen knights stopped, drew out their knives and spears, and killed Li Xiake, and more cavalry went straight to the Longmen Inn like flowing water, some knights threw out flying claws, a few flying claws went down, and all the doors and windows of the inn were pulled down, and in the roar of the doors and windows cracking, a group of knights fired thousands of arrows, and the arrows were like flying locusts, shooting into the inn.
From beginning to end, the knights did not make a sound, and all the movements were done in silence.
Screams rang out in the inn, and some of the guests who had been living in it were hit by arrows one after another, and they couldn't stop wailing.
A ray of fire rose from the inn, and then smoke came out, and a moment later, the entire Dragon Gate Inn was surrounded by billowing smoke, and it was no longer possible to see what was inside.
Li Xiake turned his back to the smoking inn and walked forward step by step, but all the knights who shot at him were all knocked away by him without exception, and his whole person was like a boulder in the heart of the river, standing on the water, standing still, and slowly moving forward against the water.
Exclamations sounded from the mouths of some knights, more and more knights joined the team to deal with Li Xiake, and some people kept firing cold arrows and other hidden weapons at Li Xiake, and more were shooting with bows and crossbows, but at this time, Li Xiake was like an iron man, and the injuries of these people had no effect on him at all, and he didn't bother to pay attention to the feather arrows that were shot, only when the knights attacked him with weapons, he would shoot back.
The terrible horn sounded, and the knights of the entire black cavalry team became nervous, and they all reined in their horses to look at Li Xiake, who was surrounded by the cavalry.
Li Xiake, who was in the center of the encirclement, walked slowly, the whole person was like chopping waves, and the speed of moving forward did not change much, but everything in front of him was casually knocked away by him, and several knights were kicked into the air by him, even with men and horses, and the situation was extremely terrifying.
"Governor!"
In a huge sedan chair, Cao Shaoqin opened the sedan curtain, stretched out his palm, and Jia Ting beside him hurriedly handed Cao Shaoqin a thousand miles of hope, bent down and said: "Li Xiake is fighting with our army, this person seems to have practiced peerless hard skills, our bows and arrows will not work for him!"
He said with a shocked face: "Even the horse and the man were kicked into the air, this Li Xia Ke is beyond the scope of manpower!"
Cao Shaoqin took the Qianli Wang, slowly looked ahead, and after looking at it for a while, he instructed Jia Ting: "Let the children all work harder, try to consume this person's physical strength, good guy, seeing this person's skills, I suddenly remembered that a kung fu of the Shao Shaolin faction has been on the verge of being lost, I hope it is not this kung fu, otherwise, it will be a big trouble!"
