Chapter 56: The Iron Claw Woman
"Who is that hero? What kind of weapon does he use, what kind of martial arts does he know, and what kind of sect does he have?"
The rickety old man asked a series of questions like a cannon.
Dai Yue was stunned, she just casually made up some nonsense, prevaricating and fooling. Where can we tell the truth? Not only will no one believe it, but it will also damage the reputation. When ordinary people hear this, they will no longer ask, but they don't know that this old man is not finished. So he asked him rhetorically: "Who are you, this senior?"
Dai Wanshan introduced: "This is the old man Qian Xuesong, a martial artist who walks the world. Today, I came to the house as a guest. ”
Dai Yue knew that he was a martial arts idiot, and he didn't have much friendship with his father, so he said perfunctorily: "That hero refuses to reveal his identity to me, I have no way of knowing." ”
The old man asked again, "Then how old is he, what does he look like, what weapon does he use?"
Dai Yue said: "He was about thirty or forty years old, more than eight feet tall, with a majestic appearance, and a gilded broadsword. Listening to the accent is not Tianzhou, it looks like a Yunzhou accent. ”
Qian Xuesong frowned and sighed for a few breaths, and said: "Few masters of the rivers and lakes use heavy knives, at this age, I know, only one Wang Yuanwei, the head of the Golden Dao Gate, is in line." But the head of the Wang family had been killed by a traitor a month ago, and his martial arts were probably inferior to Zhong Huozi, who could retreat from the Yun family, the streamer gate, and the Tianwei General's Mansion. Miss Dai Yue, do you remember clearly?"
"Of course. Why, do you think I'm still lying to you?"
Dai Yue was a little impatient, and there was a hint of anger in her words.
"Yue'er, don't be rude to your seniors. Dai Wanshan scolded softly, and then said to Qian Xuesong, "Old man, my family Yue'er was fortunate to be helped by nobles and had to return home." I'm going to set up a banquet tomorrow to surprise her, and by the way, I will reward my friends who have tried their best to find Yue'er these days. If the old man wants to enjoy his face, he can also stay in our mansion today, and leave tomorrow after the banquet. ”
Qian Xuesong said: "No. Since General Tianwei didn't want to show me that trick, the 'Snow Blade Mountain Breaking Style', it didn't make sense for me to stay here, so I still took my leave. After saying that, he turned around and left.
Dai Wanshan said: "Let's leave after eating." ”
Qian Xuesong didn't answer, didn't look back, only waved his hand, and walked out of the general's mansion quickly.
Dai Wanshan didn't look at him again, and said to the left and right: "Come on, wait for the young lady to return to the room, and then ask the doctor to diagnose and treat her body." In addition, he went to his wife's house to summon the news, saying that Yue'er was back, and asked her to hurry home to see her daughter. ”
Dai Yue said: "Daddy, my body is already well, and I don't need to be treated anymore." ”
Dai Wanshan shook his head and said: "You haven't practiced kung fu, your body is very delicate, and a small injury may also leave a chronic illness, please ask the doctor to come and see at least to ask for peace of mind." ”
"Okay. ”
Dai Yue followed the two maidservants and left.
When she arrived in the room, Dai Yue took off her hat and robe, and when she saw that the maid who took her over was about to throw it outside the house, she immediately said, "Don't throw it." ”
The maidservant said, "Miss, this thing is dirty and ugly, what are you doing with it? ”
"I said keep it, you can manage it?"
As soon as Dai Yue glared, the maidservant lowered her head and walked out of the door, honestly shook off the water on the hat and robe, and then hung it neatly on the wall of the house.
Another maidservant called the servants to bring a bath bucket, added a small half bucket of warm water, and sprinkled many flower petals into it: "Miss, you should take a bath first and change your clothes." ”
"Hmm. You go out first. ”
Dai Yue didn't want others to see the scar on her leg.
After the second maid left, Dai Yue took off the clothes that had not been changed for almost twenty days, stepped on a small stool into the bathtub, and squatted down inside, feeling the warm water soaking into her body, and feeling comfortable for a while. While scrubbing his body, he recalled the earthy river, and his heart loved his home more and more.
Suddenly, the door opened, and a shadow shot out from the outside in front of the bathtub, Dai Yue just wanted to scream, but saw a familiar sword against his throat, and immediately silenced.
"Don't speak, or I'll kill you at any time. ”
The voice is also familiar with the husky voice.
Dai Yue stared at the person in front of her in disbelief, only to see a cold and vicious face revealed under the eaves of the dripping hat. With a trembling voice, he said, "Why are you here again?"
Zhongli said: "The camel can go wherever he wants." I've been here once, and I've been here a second time. ”
"What about my handmaids, and you killed them?"
Dai Yue remembered the last time Zhongli broke into the house and killed a lot of people.
Zhongli said, "No, I grabbed a puppy and put it outside the courtyard, and they were lazy to tease the puppy." ”
Dai Yue breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"I don't want to tell you. I'm going to hide in your room for the next few days, and you're going to pretend you're not feeling well, and don't go out until you go. ”
"Why?"
"You don't need to know why, you just do what I say. How fast this sword is, you know. ”
"My room is so big, where do you want to hide?"
"Under the bed. Don't try to play tricks, the camel's ears are smart, and even other people's abnormal breathing can be heard, as long as something is wrong in the room, I will kill you with a sword first. ”
"Good...... Can you take the sword back first? ”
At this time, there was a puppy barking outside, as if two maidservants were chasing the puppy into the courtyard. Zhongli quickly put away his sword, closed the door, and leaned down to get under the bed.
Dai Yue was frightened and frightened, thinking that she was out of the wolf's den, but she didn't expect the wolf to come to her house again. Why did Zhongli come back? Could it be to disadvantage his father? It is very likely that although his father's martial arts are high, he is easy to dodge with open guns and difficult to defend against hidden arrows, so he has to find a way to remind him.
I didn't care about taking a careful bath at the moment, so I got out of the bathtub and wiped my body, wrapped myself in clean clothes, and picked up a pen, intending to write a message on the paper. Suddenly, an iron dart flew out from under the bed and slammed into the wall. Then came Zhongli's voice: "I said, don't be smart. Next time, it's not the wall that's nailed, it's your head. Throw the dart back."
Dai Yue didn't dare to move again, pulled out the iron dart and threw it back under the bed, then lay on the bed, covered it with a quilt, and said in a low voice: "Don't you want to beat my father's idea." He was known as the 'Demon Sword King', a well-known figure in the rivers and lakes, a martial arts learned from the 'Beihai Kunlun Sect' in the Tianshan Mountains of Dizhou, and broke into a great reputation. There have been many killer assassins who tried to assassinate him, and all of them lost their lives. If you want to plot against him, you will only touch a stone with an egg. ”
Zhongli didn't speak again, no matter what Dai Yue said, he didn't give any response.
In the living room, Dai Wanshan naturally didn't know what happened to Dai Yue in the boudoir, just took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and said: "Lord Ying originally wanted to help the last general find the little girl, but now that the little girl has returned on her own, Lord Ying doesn't need to run around for it." ”
The iron-clawed woman said, "General Dai, are you giving an order to evict guests?"
Dai Wanshan hurriedly said: "No, no, no." The last general has always wanted to make friends with a heroine like Lord Ying, but I have heard that the Imperial Sword Hall is busy with official business, so I dare not bother to delay you. ”
The iron-clawed woman smiled and said, "What's the trouble delaying? It just so happened that we came to Tianwei City, and there was another matter. I want to borrow two houses from your house for a while. ”
Dai Wanshan's brows furrowed slightly: "Could it be the ...... of the Demon Sect recently?"
"That's right. The iron-clawed woman didn't wait for him to finish speaking, then interjected, "The famous 'tea pickers' and notorious 'bamboo cutters' on the rivers and lakes have committed many crimes in Tianwei City, stealing and robbing the treasures of several sects and gangs. The Guiyi Division has sent four groups of purple-clothed guards in a row, but they still can't find their whereabouts. Now it is very likely that they will still stay in Tianwei City, if they continue to attack, the next target is likely to be the general's 'drinking snow'. ”
When Dai Wanshan heard this, his brows relaxed and stretched, and he said, "Lord Ying means that you want to stay in my house with your companions, waiting for the tea pickers and bamboo cutters to appear?" It is said that these two people are very strong in martial arts...... Oh yes, Lord Ying has seen them in Yunzhou. But it is said that after the Purple Guard's Luo Commander left, Lord Ying made a move against the bamboo cutters out of fear? But this is also understandable, the realm of the bamboo cutter's internal force is very likely to reach the sixth realm 'Escape Heaven', and even the great martial arts master Huang Xiaosheng is not his opponent. ”
The iron-clawed woman shook her head and said, "The tea picker is unparalleled in the world, but it is difficult to deal with, and the bamboo cutter has a brute force, as long as the two of us join forces with this 'Nanshan Sword Saint', we can defeat and capture it." I heard that the three fierce Tianyun who are good at combined attacks can be entangled with the bamboo cutter for a while, and the four of them are only the fourth realm 'dawn', and the internal strength of the three of us has reached the fifth realm 'swimming in the sky', with a little practice and cooperation, it can be a hundred times stronger than the three fierce Tianyun trees, and it is easy to win the bamboo cutter. ”
