Chapter 141: Begging for mercy
Only then did everyone realize that the three people who were in the limelight in today's martial arts competition were Xiao, Zhao, and Li, who killed the young owner of the Royal Sword Villa not long ago.
The two major events that have happened on the rivers and lakes recently are related to the Imperial Sword Villa, one is that Sun Qiangu killed the master of Kongtong, and the Royal Sword Villa was included in the eight major sects; the second is that Sun Shaoming was killed, and Sun Qiangu personally went out to hunt down and kill the three people, and issued a wanted warrant on the rivers and lakes, and offered a reward of 100,000 taels of silver for the heads of the three people.
Although Li Chengcheng is not in Jinling, he is the next head of the Li family in Jinling, representing the Li family in Jinling, and this move of the Imperial Sword Villa is tantamount to declaring war on the Li family.
The Li family in Jinling also reacted quickly and mobilized the family power to encircle and intercept the business of the Imperial Sword Villa, and the three offices of the Imperial Sword Villa in Jiangnan were purged overnight.
In addition, the Li family also issued a reward in Xiaosheng Jianghu, and those who took the head of Sun Qiangu of the Imperial Sword Villa would be rewarded with one million taels of silver, and the price was ten times that of the three of them.
It may not work, but at least the attitude must be taken out.
Compared with spending money, the Li family in Jinling has never been afraid of anyone.
Sun Qiangu showed the strength of the Datong Elephant Realm at the Sword Appreciation Conference, but there were always some killers who didn't know whether they were alive or dead who wanted to try their luck, and it was precisely because of this that Sun Qiangu couldn't concentrate on finding the trouble of the three of them.
Sun Qiangu laughed, "Then ask the old lady to help me sweep the formation." With that, he came up to the three of them, "Today, do you think you can still escape?"
Xiao Jinyan pursed his lips and said, "Actually, I think it should be okay." ”
Li Chengcheng also said, "It's not the first time. ”
Sun Qiangu said, "In front of the heroes of the world, if you can escape again today, my grandson will cut off his arms!"
Zhao Lanjiang frowned and said, "Cutting off your arms?" seems to be a little difficult. ”
Xiao Jinyan snorted and said with a smile, "What's so difficult about this, holding a knife in both hands, cutting off the right arm with the left hand and the left arm with the right hand, this, but it's a technical job." ”
Sun Qiangu knew that these three people were very cunning, and they slipped away from under him many times, and this time he was not going to talk nonsense with him, first find a way to abolish their martial arts, and then take them to his son's grave and torture them little by little.
Thinking of this, the mountain-shaking sword came out of its shell, and a blue light suddenly appeared, bounded by the red line, enveloping the three of them in the sword momentum.
The crowd retreated.
Old Lady Tang's expression was also very solemn, Sun Qiangu had actually advanced to the Datong Elephant Realm, the peak of force within the three realms.
At this time, I suddenly heard a person laughing and groaning, "Old lady Tang, I'm afraid your Tang family won't be able to take over that business in the Imperial Sword Villa." ”
As she spoke, a woman in a green shirt walked out of the crowd, this woman had bright eyes and bright teeth, beautiful and beautiful, with a heroic spirit between her eyebrows, dressed in men's clothes, which was even more distinctive.
Behind the woman, followed by an old servant in gray, hunched over his waist, his hands lowered and looking very respectful.
Tang Shouli felt that the old man in gray was very familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was, and said, "How do you say this?"
The woman said, "The 30,000 bows, 3,000 crossbows, and 100,000 long knives that the Western Army is procuring have been handed over to the Li family in Jinling to do, and they have nothing to do with the Imperial Sword Villa. ”
Tang Shouli glanced at Sun Qiangu with some confusion.
Sun Qiangu laughed, "This business was personally negotiated between me and Yu Wengui, the housekeeper of the Dadu Governor's family, and even the deposit has already been paid. ”
The woman in Tsing Yi smiled slightly, "Master Sun Zhuang has been away from home for too long, I advise you to go back and have a look, a few days later, I am afraid that your Imperial Sword Villa will have to change your surname to Li." ”
Sun Qiangu saw that he was about to get these three people, and he didn't want to entangle with this woman, so he was about to make a move, when suddenly, the old servant behind the woman lowered his head and took a step forward.
Although his hands were lowered and his body was bent, the whole person exuded a fierce momentum, and the people outside the audience did not know why, but Sun Qiangu felt the pressure.
A name flashed in Sun Qiangu's mind, but he was not sure, because that person had died in Shujian Mountain twenty years ago.
The old man lowered his head and said, "I'm just a house slave of the young lady's family." ”
Sun Qiangu raised his head, stared at the woman and said, "Who is Your Excellency?"
The woman smiled faintly, "The surname is Yuwen in Xiafu, and the single name is a frost word." ”
Yuwen Shuang!
Not only everyone present, but even Mrs. Tang was also surprised.
The first magnate in the court today, the only daughter of the metropolitan governor Yuwen Tianlu, and the lord of Ningling County, who was personally appointed by the emperor, actually came to Shuzhong in person!
No wonder he spoke in such a loud tone just now.
Tang Shouli coughed dryly, and said to Yu Wenshuang, "See Lord Ningling!"
The Tang family also knelt down one after another, "See Lord Ningling." ”
Yu Wenshuang's identity is respected, and he has an identity that is respected, and his martial arts are known as the first father in the world, not to mention the Tang Sect, even the four great families dare not provoke.
Sun Qiangu looked at the old servant, "You didn't even die." ”
The gray-clothed old servant said, "I was lucky enough to pick up a life back then, and now I have sold it to the Governor of Yuwen." ”
Twenty years ago, the top eleven masters in the world broke into Shujian Mountain, except for Wang Banxian and Dan Qingsheng, the remaining nine people all died on the mountain.
Unexpectedly, there is still a fish that slipped through the net.
Sun Qiangu secretly took refuge in Shujian Mountain, and had an understanding of this secret, and said, "I didn't expect that the dignified sword immortal back then would take refuge in someone else's family as a dog." ”
The old man said, "You and I are both dogs, who should we be when we are not dang, do we have to divide them into three, six, nine and so on?"
Sun Qiangu saw that Yuwenshuang's eyes had been staring at the three of them, and he didn't know what she was thinking, so he said tentatively, "Miss Yuwen, do you know these three people?"
Yu Wenshuang's eyes swept over Xiao Jinyan's body, then looked at Li Chengcheng and Zhao Lanjiang, and said, "The three of them have offended this girl, and I am ready to break them into pieces." ”
Everyone felt sorry for the three of them.
offended the Imperial Sword Villa, with the Jinling Li family as a backer, it was nothing. But if you offend the Yuwen family, not to mention the Jinling Li family, even if the four major families join forces, they will never end well.
Sun Qiangu smiled, "I see, it's a coincidence, these three people have a grudge against me for killing our sons, since we have a common goal, it is better for you and me to join forces, and torture them to the point of life rather than death." ”
Yu Wenshuang sneered, "You are also worthy?"
One sentence made Sun Qiangu stunned in place.
"I count to three, and you disappear from front of me!"
Compared with martial arts, Sun Qiangu was afraid of this gray-clothed old servant, compared to power, people didn't look at the Royal Sword Villa at all, and secretly thought in their hearts, these three people offended Miss Yuwen, and they would definitely not end well, so it was better to take a step first and observe secretly.
Thinking of this, he said: "In this case, Sun retired first." With that, the sword was sheathed and ready to leave.
"Wait!"
Xiao Jinyan said in the cold winter, "Master Sun Zhuang, it seems that someone just said that he wanted to cut off his arms in front of the heroes of the world. ”
Sun Qiangu said coldly, "Let's save my life first." ”
Stepping out of the mountain gate, Sun Qiangu heard a mocking voice behind him, "The dignified owner of the Royal Sword Villa, talking is like a fart, it is better to change it to a fart villa!"
The crowd burst into laughter.
Sun Qiangu hated it with hatred, thinking of what Yu Wenshuang said, could it be that the Li family in Jinling took action so quickly? If this is the case, I am afraid that I will have to go back to Wanzhou first.
As for the three boys, even if they don't die, Yuwenshuang won't make them feel better.
Where there is life, there is hope.
If Shapingfeng is gone, and the foundation of the Imperial Sword Villa for hundreds of years is ruined, then he will become a sinner in the family, thinking of this, he left Shuzhong overnight.
Martial arts arena.
Zhao Lanjiang looked at Yu Wenshuang and asked, "Do we have a grudge?"
"Nope. ”
asked Li Chengcheng again, "What about you?"
Li Qingcheng said lightly, "I don't know her." ”
Zhao Lanjiang nodded, "Let's go, Li Chengcheng, I'll invite you to drink." ”
Li Chengcheng asked rhetorically, "Are you rich?"
"It's okay, let's record it in Xiao Jinyan's account first, if he can survive. ”
Li Tingcheng said that it made sense, and the two left side by side, but Yu Wenshuang and the old man in gray did not stop them.
In the field, only Yu Wenshuang and Xiao Jinyan remained.
Everyone suddenly realized that it was only Xiao Jinyan, who was nicknamed Tang Dabao, who offended Miss Yuwen, who stopped outside the circle and wanted to find out.
Xiao Jinyan didn't expect that Yuwenshuang would really come to Shuzhong, and she didn't expect that she would come to the rescue this time, so she couldn't help but arch her hand and said, "Miss Yuwen, I thank you." ”
Yuwen Shuang's face was frosty, he pulled out the soft sword at his waist, and said word by word, "Xiao Jinyan, draw the sword." ”
"Why?"
"I'm going to kill you. ”
Xiao Jinyan remembered the scene outside Yangzhou City that day, and the third lady sent a master of Xiaoxiao Hall to kill him, and he also felt a sense of anger in his heart.
"Miss Yuwen, although I had something wrong with the events of the day, I offended you, but I didn't sin to death, but you sent people to chase and kill me three times or five times, if it wasn't for my life, I would have died seven or eight times, and the breath in your heart is almost out, and now you are still so aggressive, don't you think it's too much?"
Yu Wenshuang was stunned when she heard this, "Three times and five times?"
"Yangzhou, Suzhou, you are all at the hands of the Laughing Hall, stop me, don't say that you didn't do it. ”
That night, the order to kill Xiao Jinyan was given by the third lady, Yu Wenshuang didn't know it, and it was an accident that she met Xiao Jinyan.
After Yangzhou returned to the capital, Yu Wenshuang was very concerned about Xiao Jinyan, but remembering what Xiao Jinyan said that night, she was annoyed in her heart, and when she sent someone to inquire again, she learned that he had left Suzhou.
Now that the situation in the west is tight, Yuwen Tianlu, as the governor of the Western Army, has no time to withdraw, so he sent Yuwenshuang to Yinyang City to handle an extremely secret matter, but he didn't expect to meet Xiao Jinyan here.
At first, he was very happy and wanted to surprise him, but it turned out that this guy actually participated in the Tang family's competition to recruit relatives, and his face couldn't help but sink.
Facing Xiao Jinyan's questioning, she said coldly, "What about me, Xiao Jinyan, it's not a pity for you to die." ”
As he spoke, a sword stabbed at Xiao Jinyan.
Her martial arts have been passed down by Yuwen Tianlu personally, and under the guidance of famous teachers, among the younger generation, she is already outstanding, this sword, regardless of the move or angle, is extremely strange and dazzling.
Xiao Jinyan has a keen sense and knows that her move is very sharp, but at this time, her internal strength is exhausted, and her body is half a beat slower.
Seeing that he was about to be stabbed, Yuwenshuang saw that he couldn't dodge, and the tip of his sword slanted.
Laugh at!
The soft sword stabbed Xiao Jinyan in the left shoulder, and blood flowed.
"Why don't you resist?"
Xiao Jinyan sighed.
Yu Wenshuang looked at him carefully, "What about your internal strength?"
Xiao Jinyan muttered, "I was scattered by that Sun Qiangu's punch." ”
Yu Wenshuang's face changed slightly, and then she regained her composure, and said indifferently, "Don't think that you pretend to be pitiful, this girl will spare you." ”
Everyone saw that Yu Wenshuang and Xiao Jinyan did not share the same momentum, and it was estimated that Xiao Jinyan saw that the county lord of Ningling was beautiful, and he underestimated this county lord and caused a killing disaster, and shouted one after another, "Even the county lord of Ningling dares to offend and kill him!"
"Yes, kill him!"
Yuwenshuang just wanted to teach Xiao Jinyan a lesson, let him say a few words of convincing, such as kneeling on the ground and kowtowing and begging for mercy, etc., and then she opened the net, but where did these Jianghu people understand the girl's mind, and they actually instigated her to kill Xiao Jinyan.
The dignified county lord of Ningling, who is also a girl's family, is thin-skinned, and wants to take the opportunity to let him step down, so he said, "What else do you have to say?"
Xiao Jinyan said, "I have nothing to say. ”
This tone that was not salty or light completely angered Yu Wenshuang, she threw the soft sword on the ground and blasted it towards Xiao Jinyan with a punch.
Bang!
Xiao Jinyan waved his fist to block, but his internal strength was lost, where was Yu Wenshuang's opponent, he couldn't resist it, and he withdrew five or six steps.
Her face turned pale, and she said, "Begging for mercy, if you beg for mercy, this girl may open the net and let you live a few more days." ”
But for some reason, Xiao Dagongzi, who has always been dissolute and unruly, and his face is thicker than the city wall, actually closed his lips tightly and refused to say a word.
Yuwenshuang punched again.
Xiao Jinyan had a sharp pain in his chest, spit out a mouthful of blood, and gasped for breath.
All this, Old Lady Tang saw it in his eyes, he has lived for nearly a hundred years, he has already become a fine, what is the identity of the county lord of Ningling, if someone offends him, there is no need for her to take action in person, there are already countless people vying to be angry for him, can he still live until now?
He had already seen that the relationship between this Ningling County Lord and this Xiao Jinyan was not ordinary, and now His Royal Highness the County Lord was difficult to ride a tiger, and he hurt people one after another, and his heart moved, and he persuaded, "His Royal Highness the County Lord!"
Yu Wenshuang turned around and saw Old Lady Tang looking at him with a smile, as if he had already seen through everything, and couldn't help blushing.
"Today is the day of the granddaughter's martial arts competition, if you see blood, I'm afraid it will be unlucky, if this kid offends you, it is better to lock him up in the Tang Mansion, and wait for today, let His Highness deal with it?"
Everyone secretly scolded the old fox in their hearts, today's martial arts competition, there are still fewer people dead in the martial arts arena? Why did it become unlucky when you got here?
However, this is the Tang Mansion, and the old lady is a senior in the rivers and lakes, no matter what you say, it is his reason, and there is no way to refute it.
Yu Wenshuang's mood eased and said, "Okay, I'm tired today, lock him up first, and when it's empty, I'll clean him up." ”
Mrs. Tang said, "Your Highness can come to the Tang family in person, so that my Tang family is full of brilliance, and the old man has the courage to be the master, and tonight he will hold a banquet in the cold house to entertain His Highness, and I hope that the county lord can appreciate the light." ”
Yu Wenshuang arched his hand slightly and said, "It's so bothering." However, today is the day of your mansion's martial arts competition, I'm afraid it's a little inconvenient. ”
Old Lady Tang said, "It's okay. ”
He also said to everyone, "Today's competition to recruit relatives, there was a little accident, heroes, for the time being, stay in the city for a few days, three days later, re-compare, the expenses between the three days, although it is on the Tang Mansion account!"
"I thought there would be a good show, but it turned out that the thunder was loud and the rain was small, and it was boring!"
The crowd dispersed.
Yu Wenshuang stood beside Xiao Jinyan, with some remorse in her eyes, but she thought that she deserved it, who let him not know what to do.
Old Mrs. Tang said, "Your Highness, please." ”
Yu Wenshuang stood still.
"This Xiao Gongzi has just suffered some skin injuries, and I will treat him with the best healing medicine in the house. ”
Yu Wenshuang said coldly, "Who wants you to take care of it? ”
The main gate of the Tang family's main courtyard was wide open, and the old lady Tang welcomed the two of them in with the highest rules in the house, and instructed Tang Zhengfeng to heal Xiao Jinyan's injuries.
......
Restaurants.
Zhao Lanjiang and Li Chengcheng had four dishes and two wine jars in front of the table, one of which had been drunk.
Zhao Lanjiang said, "Wouldn't it be a little unkind for us to leave Xiao Jinyan like this, but use his money to drink?"
"It's a bit unkind. ”
Zhao Lanjiang said, "Then let's have a drink, it's not kind to respect us." ”
The two clinked glasses and drank them all. After eating a few more glasses, the two of them talked about Xiao Jinyan again.
"That Yuwenshuang should be the woman mentioned in the mouth of the monk Baolu, I heard that I love Xiao Jinyan to death, and your identity as a self-proclaimed brother-in-law is probably in jeopardy. ”
Li Chengcheng remembered that his sister Li Jinghong's whereabouts were still unknown, and he was upset, so he poured a glass of wine and poured himself a drink.
The second jar of wine was drunk, and both of them were drunk.
Zhao Lanjiang said, "Now that the situation in the west is dangerous, going to Yinyang this time must be very dangerous, Lao Xiao's internal strength is lost, I am a little worried......"
Halfway through the words, Li Chengcheng said, "If you have something to say, don't babble, like a girl." ”
"Actually, you don't need to take this risk with me, my idea is, it's better for you to take him back, and I'll handle the matter over there by myself. ”
Li Chengcheng said unhappily, "Do you think Xiao Jinyan went to Yinyang just for you? ”
"What's the news?"
"My sister's whereabouts. ”
Li Chengcheng said, "Over the years, my sister's whereabouts have been unknown, and our Li family has tried their best to achieve no results. Xiao Jinyan did not give up looking, as a friend, I accompanied him to the west, I just didn't want him to fall into trouble, life is long, some things should be let go. ”
At this time, not far from the table, a lady in strange clothes walked over and said with a smile, "Two sons, it's boring to drink here, why don't you come here and have two drinks with your sister, how about relieving your boredom?"
Li Chengcheng looked up, and saw that this woman had thick eyebrows and big eyes, high cheekbones, thick lips, and a thick fat powder on her face, and she looked very ugly.
Li Chengcheng has seen countless beauties, and when he was in Jinling before, he was often accosted, but it was the first time that someone with such an ugly appearance was born.
He was already in a bad mood, and said coldly when he heard this, "This lady, Your Excellency looks so unorganized and undisciplined, and drinks, I don't think there is any need for this." ”
The three women next to him were furious when they heard this, and stood up on the ground, "Presumptuous, dare to be so rude to our wife!"
