Volume 2: Nanke's Dream Chapter 9: Di Ao
In the inn in Maple Leaf City that houses the people of Jianghu.
The man with a scarred face was closing his eyes and recuperating, and his ears were full of the sound of the rough men on the first floor yelling.
Suddenly, someone tapped him on the shoulder, and Lao Bai frowned and opened his eyes.
Next to him sat a young man of a small grade, who was almost winter, but he was wearing a short shirt, and he had just entered from the outside with a chill, and he was reaching out to the stove at this time, warm.
Lao Bai knows this thin young man, is an orphan, has been fighting since he was a child, grew up eating hundreds of meals, and now he has joined Hongmen, and the time he has joined Hongmen is long and short, he is a low-level minion, called Xiao Zhao, he will come to him when he has time, and he will gradually become acquainted.
This Xiao Zhao's face gradually became ruddy, and his fingers were no longer so stiff, so he grabbed the melon seeds on the counter in front of him, knocked them up, and said to himself: "There has been a big incident in the past two days, and our masters of Hongmen are rushing to Yuancheng." ”
He spat twice as he spoke. He spit out the broken melon seed skin from his mouth, and continued: "I heard that I want to help the master besiege and kill a martial artist of the Three Realms, and I don't know what it is, it must be very powerful, and those who have a little bit of effort are rushing over there." ”
Saying that, Xiao Zhao sighed: "I also want to see what that scene is like, but it's a pity that our helmsman can't look down on my three-legged cat kung fu." ”
Lao Bai was listening to him, feeling a little thirsty, and got up to get the kettle to get some water to drink, but when he heard the word helper, his body was stunned, and his hand was withdrawn.
His face was full of waves, and he said lightly to Xiao Zhao: "What you just said...... He's in Yuancheng, too. ”
Xiao Zhao nodded and said, "That's right, usually the gang leader is a god dragon, but this time he suddenly appeared, and I still want to meet him." ”
Lao Bai's face did not change, and he asked tentatively, "How did your little minion know this kind of news?"
Xiao Zhao sighed and replied: "Originally, I really didn't know, my status is too low, but there are too many people mobilized this time, and there are many people, so I inquired...... Why do you ask this?"
Lao Bai's eyes were stunned, and he muttered, "It's nothing...... It's nothing. ”
......
Dead.
Lao Bai hadn't slept yet, he had never felt so awake with his eyes open.
He crept to the counter, pulled out the nails that were nailed to the four corners of the top with his hands, and removed the board, only to see that it was dark and swarthy inside, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
Lao Bai put his hand in, as if grasping something, and then took it out.
Through the moonlight shining through the window, I vaguely saw that it was a long sword.
He slowly and carefully wiped the dust from it, and you can imagine how many years this sword has not seen the light of day.
Lao Bai silently repeated an action like this, and the terrifying and hideous face obviously had no expression, but at this moment, he could clearly see that a tear slowly flowed from the corner of his eye.
......
When the day was on the third pole, the gang of horse dealers at the head of the city was missing a fast horse.
So from then on, there was one less old white in the inn.
———————————————
Shuiyuelou is the largest and best restaurant in Yuancheng, and most of those rich and powerful people will come here for dinner and talk about business.
Therefore, the price of vegetables in Shuiyue Building is divided into three grades, and it is also divided into three floors.
The first floor is a civilian stall.
The second floor is slightly higher.
The three-story building is the place where the real bigwigs can board, I heard that there was once a bottle of aged wine that was fried to a sky-high price, ordinary people will be scared to death when they hear that price, but it can be obtained for one or two silver in the zenith outside, which is enough to see its extravagance.
And today, Shuiyuelou is a distinguished guest, directly the three floors are rounded, and the guests invited until the flowers and vegetables are cold, only to come, the boss of Shuiyuelou is curious about where this is sacred.
I saw that the leader was actually a young man in white, which made the second monk of his uncle puzzled, which young master and brother of which family can be personally entertained by the one inside and put on a shelf? Could it be that it is the son of the county guard of Chenya County?
No, I heard that the sons of the county guard are all twenty-five and have been in the army for two or three years, how can they be so thin?
At the moment, the boss of Shuiyuelou didn't understand Luo Liangqiu's identity, but he knew one thing, that is, this young man in white must be unspeakably expensive, so he, a big boss, said flatteringly to Luo Liangqiu and the others: "The four masters, please." ”
Four?
Luo Liangqiu tilted his head slightly, seeing that Pei Qi did not come in, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he began to think about what the hell Hongmen was fighting.
After thinking about it, Luo Liangqiu and the others had already gone up to the fourth floor, and that scene was really worthy of the words "splendid".
Under the leadership of the owner of Shuiyue Building, he turned left and walked a few steps, and in front of him was a huge round table, which was full of all kinds of wine and delicacies.
At that table, the man sitting on the throne was blue-skinned and a little thin, and I don't know if it was because he had been hollowed out by wine.
Luo Liangqiu was far away, and he could already feel the surging true qi in that person's body.
It seems that this person is the leader of Hongmen.
On the left hand side of the Hongmen gang leader, it was Yang Chang, the deputy gang leader he had seen that day, looking at Luo Liangqiu and the others at this time, he could be called gritting his teeth, and his vicious look was not concealed at all.
The one sitting on the right hand side of the Hongmen gang leader, naked, with some strange striped totems on his face and body, and a big earring on his ear, looks like a barbarian, the momentum of this person is much stronger than the Hongmen gang leader sitting in you, and it should be the strongest combat power of Hongmen at present.
There are only these three people on the face of Hongmen, but Luo Liangqiu's heart is like a mirror, who knows how many people can be ambushed in this Shuiyue Tower?
But he was not afraid, strode to the table, sat down directly, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and began to gobble up.
Shen Liuyue was right, Luo Liangqiu hadn't eaten at all since morning, so he was very hungry at the moment.
Jiujiu was about to stop him, but Luo Liangqiu had already swallowed the contents of his mouth, seeing Jiujiu's stunned expression, Luo Liangqiu knew that he was worried about himself, so he smiled and said to the leader of the Nahongmen: "Don't worry, I think that since this person has taken great pains to invite us over, he must have no fear, how can he do such an inferior method of poisoning food?"
"By the way, I don't know what the Hongmen gang leader is called?"
The blue-skinned thin man tugged at the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Little Brother Luo is also hearty, my surname is Yin Mingqiu, and the people on the rivers and lakes called me 'Jade Faced Langjun' in the early years, I was injured a few years ago, and I haven't recovered until now, so I haven't used this name much." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to his blue face, and then the smile disappeared completely, he put his fingers together, raised his head slightly, looked at Luo Liangqiu, and said straight to the point: "Presumably Little Brother Luo also knows that I didn't invite you to you this time to chat, right?"
Luo Liangqiu was talking for a while, the wind swept away, and the two bowls of rice were in his stomach, he felt that he had almost eaten, picked up the clean handkerchief on the table, wiped his mouth, and replied: "That's natural, what's the matter?"
Luo Liangqiu can be said to be gearing up at this time, eager to try, just thinking about trying how powerful his sword is at, this is Yin Qiu waved his hand, shook his head, and said: "How bad it is to fight and kill, now I have a lot of low-key, or to be precise, Hongmen has been a lot more low-key, otherwise I can send someone over when I know your address, and directly surround and kill it? But if you fight like that, the movement is too big, and it is not interesting, so let's just do it simply, let's salute first and then soldier." ”
Luo Liangqiu felt a little interesting when he heard this, so he asked, "Then dare to ask Gang Master Yin, what kind of 'etiquette' method are you talking about?"
I saw Yin Qiu's arm move, with a sword roar, a white light flew out from his side, and flew towards Luo Liangqiu's side with a whirl, and with a bang, it stabbed steadily into the table in front of Luo Liangqiu, and the sword body didn't enter half of it.
Jiujiu saw it in his eyes, and he saw that the trajectory of this sword would not hurt Luo Liangqiu, so he didn't make a move.
At this time, Yin Qiu pointed to the sword he threw over, and said: "You provoked my brother and made them all kneel on the ground, well, as the saying goes, 'tooth for tooth', I want you to use this sword to dig out your patella, and you have to kneel for the rest of your life." ”
When Jiujiu heard this, he sneered, and was about to say something, but Luo Liangqiu held down his arm, only to hear Luo Liangqiu laugh and say, "What about after that?"
Yin Qiu also smiled and replied: "After that, although my anger has been resolved, the anger of those brothers has not been resolved, and I can't control what they do to you." ”
The man next to him, who seemed to be a barbarian, laughed, extremely exaggerated, and slapped his face, looking no different from those fools and madmen.
Luo Liangqiu saw that the barbarian was laughing happily, his face sank, he slapped the table, stood up, pointed at the man's nose and scolded: "Are you laughing at your mother?"
The barbarian's face also sank instantly, and he jumped up, rushing in the air and Luo Liangqiu came with a punch.
That punch was five or six meters away from Luo Liangqiu's feet, but the punch wind was like substance, and it struck with a roar.
Jiujiu reacted very quickly, flicked his sleeve, and slapped out his right hand, and the palm wind went towards the barbarian fist wind, exploding a circular wave of air in the air.
After some fighting, the barbarian fell from the sky, and he wanted to step forward to meet him, but was stopped by Yin Qiu with a hand stretched out.
He said to Luo Liangqiu: "Do you have to resist stubbornly? Fight to the death? This Shuiyue Building is already a net of heaven and earth, you should die as soon as possible, you can get away with it, if you don't want to be tortured, just kill yourself, I really don't want to make too much movement, I want to keep a low profile." ”
Luo Liangqiu smiled, crossed his arms, sat down again, and said proudly, "Then you can try?"
Ay.
Yin Qiu sighed, if it weren't for the fact that the master asked Hongmen to keep a low profile, how could he talk nonsense with these people in front of him?
At the moment, he had no choice but to wave his hand and say, "Remember to be careful and kill them." ”
The barbarian laughed and looked at Luo Liangqiu and twisted his neck.
Luo Liangqiu looked at Yin Qiu with such confidence, there must be more than one barbarian, he looked back, and happened to see a pig's head coming up from the staircase.
"Old ...... Boss!"
The voice was Pei Qi's.
Yang Chang frowned when he heard this, he stood up and looked over the stairs.
I saw that Pei Qi raised his hand, a sword was held at his neck, rubbing out a little blood, and behind him stood a man in head-catching clothes, with a majestic figure and starry eyebrows, who was frowning at this time, with a bad complexion, and walked towards this side with Pei Qi.
Jiujiu looked at the head catcher and chuckled, as if he knew him.
Yin Qiu narrowed his eyes, fixed his eyes, and said with a smile: "Who should I be, it turned out to be the famous Di Zhutou, I don't know what you are doing here?"
"Guigan?" the headhunter surnamed Di seemed to be a little angry, "Don't you know what I'm here for? Like this group of gangsters from your Hongmen, I have already reported to the county guard and led the troops to come to exterminate you, and you are still here leisurely asking me what I am doing? It's really ridiculous." ”
Hearing the word county guard, Yin Qiu's face changed.
is like the Hongmen force, the ordinary Yamen forces are not enough to see at all, not to mention that there are many masters in Hongmen, such as Zheng Senior, who can fight a hundred at a time.
But if you transfer people from the county guard, some of the generals are not ordinary people, and they all have to be good at least the martial artists of the Second Realm, and they are linked to the imperial court, who dares to move?
At that moment, Yin Qiu didn't know whether this was true or false, thinking about the master's instructions, he was in chaos in an instant, and he didn't think about it, and shouted: "!"
I saw that the three of them jumped directly from the upstairs window without hesitation, and rolled on the street twice, at this time, many people also rushed out inside and outside the Shui Yue Building, and fled quickly.
Seeing that Pei Qi was knocked unconscious by Di Zhu's head, Jiujiu stepped forward and asked, "Did you really transfer troops from the county guard?"
Di Zhutou sneered: "If it could have been transferred, it would have been adjusted a long time ago, as for letting these guys run rampant to this day? ”
Jiujiu saw that this friend was unhappy, so he put his arm around his shoulders and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, don't talk about that, speaking of which, why did you come to Yuancheng so late?
Di Zhutou frowned, and said: "Don't mention it, that case is too tricky, I encountered something, and I have been entangled for a while, I just arrived in Yuancheng and found the place you said, and then I heard the shopkeeper say that the people from Hongmen have come to you, and I will look for Yuancheng, and finally found a lot of Hongmen disciples downstairs in this Shuiyue, and I will lead them." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to Pei Qi, who fell to the ground, and continued: "It was this guy who held him hostage and came up to the building." ”
After Di Zhutou finished speaking, Jiujiu seemed to suddenly remember something, turned his head, and said to Luo Liangqiu and the others: "I forgot to introduce it for a while, this is the friend I told you about before, no, to be precise, he is the first catcher in Chenya County." ”
"He's Dio. ”
