After the woman finished reading, the man took back the scroll and carefully handed it to the woman, and said with a smile: "If it's okay, I'll leave first." ”

Seeing that the woman in red did not answer, the man ran away with courage and quickly disappeared from sight.

After the man left, the woman in red opened the scroll slightly, caressed the vivid man on the painting, and the meaning of the red tide that she had endured for a long time quickly swept her whole body, and she couldn't help but scream.

After closing the scroll, the woman looked into the distance of the river, licked her lips and said, "I will definitely catch you!"

A few days later, it returned to the plain Tianshui, as if the once prosperous and crowded was like a dream. The few people on the streets are not destined people, they are just unlucky people who have not been addicted to it for a long time.

Of course, the storyteller in the city is still a money-making business, and those late Jianghu people can only rely on this method to live a good addiction in person, and then make up the picture in their minds to compensate for the stumbling along the way, spending a lot of money but spending a lot of money to fight for the loss of a bamboo basket.

When night fell, when the city gate was about to be closed, most of the body suddenly poked out of the crack in the door, startling the officers and soldiers guarding the city, and some even pulled out official knives that had not been sharpened for several years.

"Official, official, don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive, there's something to talk about!"

The figure of the man caught in the crack of the door.

The officers and soldiers who were almost frightened saw the young man stuck in the crack of the door, and relievedly stuffed the official knife back into the sheath, and said in a throat:

"What are you doing, you're already going to close the city gates, and you're still squeezing in!"

The young man in the crack of the door poked his head out of the crack and stretched his neck like a king, "It's not that you are walking slower, you have to catch up with a crack in the door by trotting, and the officials are so accommodating." ”

The officers and soldiers looked at the funny-looking young man, and their hearts were much more relaxed, unlike those self-righteous people in the rivers and lakes who stinked and coaxed, not to mention the anger of leaving, so they had to hide and endure for fear of getting into trouble.

Now the funny boy in front of him is much more pleasing to the eye, and without saying a word, the city gate has widened a little more.

The young man's body loosened, and his whole body stepped over.

Thinking of continuing to close the city, a pair of big calloused hands grabbed the city gate, and a man with a knife in black and a hat walked directly into the city gate.

The officers and soldiers looked at the tall man with an extremely cold face, and had no choice but to swallow the words he spoke.

"Thanks, sir!" the young man greeted and walked towards the city with the deep man.

The officers and soldiers looked at the two people who walked away, one strong and one thin, one tall and one short, and they always felt a sense of disobedience, as if one was a Jianghu person, and the other was just an ordinary person.

Some young people with excited expressions looked at the bustling people in the rivers and lakes, and said: "I didn't expect you to be right, my master will indeed shine." ”

Zhu Li looked at the young man who was almost excited all the way, and there were some things in his heart that he couldn't pay attention to, he wanted to take revenge, but now his own strength is undoubtedly too different.

He is different from the young people around him, of course, the process is the same, they all find the man with high strength, but the result is different, one chases the dream of the rivers and lakes, and the other ends the dream of the rivers and lakes.

He wanted revenge, but of course for whom? Even he couldn't figure it out, for his dead companions, he didn't even know the names of those people, and he didn't have much friendship. The only excuse is the leader with a white knife, and the reason is barely enough, which can be regarded as a reason for revenge.

The two of them entered the inn with their own ideas, and in the lively inn, there were still a lot of people sitting in the rivers and lakes, and on the wooden table standing alone, Mr. Storyteller said vividly. The listeners who were listening to it were lively, and they didn't care about the two people who stepped through the door.

The shopkeeper, who had already heard the story dozens of times, still had some eyes, and stepped forward to greet the new guests.

Gu Xiaobai, who was sitting at the guest table, only listened to the storyteller's excitement, and even stepped forward to hang aside the shopkeeper who came forward to ask.

Professional ethics always lie in the service of the little two, and amiable waiting, if it weren't for the meager monthly income, I really wanted to throw the rag in my hand on the face of the young man in front of me. Of course, everything is just to think about it, the strong man who carries the knife with him can make him very intimidating.

The storyteller, who was already talking about the climax, was also like the man in the story who quickly ended the fight, and the story was nearing the end.

Zhou Xiaobai was the first to applaud, mustered up all his strength to clap his palms, and then felt that something was wrong, and his movements gradually slowed down, watching the storyteller leave, he couldn't confirm it in person, so he had to look at Xiao Er, who had been waiting for a long time on his side.

"Is that guy really Edgeworth gone?"

The shopkeeper, who was a little impatient, forcibly held back his fire-breathing emotions and said with a smile: "I left by boat." ”

Zhou Xiaobai was stupid on the bench after hearing this, and the face that didn't know whether it was glossing with liver water or bitter water made the shopkeeper on one side extremely comfortable.

Zhu Li ordered some meals at random, sent Xiao Er, who was full of schadenfreude and was about to write it on his face, and looked at the young man opposite quietly.

"I didn't catch up, and the people ran away again. ”

Zhu Li picked up the teapot brewed on the table, poured a cup by himself, and said with relief: "If you go, you can leave, and then look for it." ”

Zhou Xiaobai nodded weakly, he didn't see the man with an extraordinarily strange look, and secretly hurt himself.

Zhu Li's meal can be regarded as a down-to-earth meal, and there are fewer young people who even have to talk nonsense when eating, but they have an excellent appetite, and even ask for a few more steamed buns.

In the quiet room, the two of them were lying on the bed, and the inn was extremely deserted after the lights were turned off.

"Why don't you speak?" The young man who was silent all night made Zhu Li, who listened to Shun's nagging along the way, a little unaccustomed to it.

Zhou Xiaobai lay on the bed, looked at the roof beams with his eyes open, and said quietly: "What did you say?"

"Do you still want to go to apprenticeship? Zhu Li also looked at the roof and proposed.

Zhou Xiaobai sighed, and the extremely long sigh seemed to be hesitating.

After waiting for a while, the topic that should have ended suddenly picked up again.

"No, there is still a chance!"

Zhu Li didn't answer again, I don't know if he fell asleep after waiting too long, or if he was also making some decisions.

Tonight's night is very long, it is the time of the third shift at night, and the bright moon has never been revealed.

Some of the darker darkness is the most pleasant place for people hidden in the corners, and the windless clouds are a good day to kill.

A group of three people stepped lightly on the tiled roof, and after repeatedly climbing several tiled houses, they all stopped on the roof of the inn.

The man in black, who only showed his eyes, lifted a piece of tile, and the room was pitch black, and he could no longer see anything except the general outline of the bed.

The man in black took out a short tube from his arms, about the size of a palm, the thickness of a thumb, and the bone joints on the short tube with the same spacing, which clearly looked like a wooden bamboo, and this secret weapon was a blow needle commonly used by killers.

The man in black, who held the short tube with one hand, put one end under the black cloth covering his face, and the other end aimed at the outline of the figure in the room, and his unbulging chest suddenly blew out, and a small and extremely fast silver needle shot out of the tube.

Thinking that he was going to succeed, the figure that should have been sleeping in the room moved slightly, only to hear the sound of the friction of the knife, and then in the dark room, a small spark lit up.

Immediately afterwards, the figure rolled and escaped from the sight of the man in black.

Seeing that the assassination had not succeeded, the three people on the roof no longer hid, and suddenly exerted force under their feet, and the whole tile collapsed and fell into the room.

Zhou Xiaobai, who was still asleep, was inexplicably picked up from the bed, and before he was fully awake, he heard the noise of Washuo smashing the ground, and most of his sleepiness disappeared. Looking at the figure standing with a knife next to him, he could barely see that it was Zhu Li, who was walking with him, and standing opposite was three black-clothed people with knives.

"The organization wants to kill me?" Zhu Li's voice interrupted Zhou Xiaobai's reverie.

The three men in black did not speak, and the unbridled murderous aura was obviously the best answer.

Zhou Xiaobai looked at Zhu Li curiously, from the first day he met him, he only thought that he was an ordinary swordsman, but now the organization in the mouth of the black-clothed man is obviously a man who has been with him for a long time, and his identity is not simple.

"I thought about this day, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly, let's do it, see if it can take my life. After Zhu Li finished speaking, the long knife was on his arm.

The priority order received by the man in black was to capture him alive, and in the eyes of the killer, it was obvious that the dead were more obedient, and it was obviously easier to bring a corpse back!
