The first volume of the long hatred of the rivers and lakes Chapter 14 The sword points to the stars and the moon
When everything in the inn is cleaned up, it is the end of the hour. The owner of the shop knew that many people were still hungry, so he asked the kitchen to make some wine and food and serve them, although it was simpler, it was a relief to a "hungry person" like Li Bing.
He didn't want to collect money, but Lu Zhen knew that this boss was kind and didn't want to let him break the bank, so he took out an ingot of five taels of silver at the moment, shouting that he had met so many heroes today, and he was happy from the bottom of his heart, and he would definitely drink and not return.
At that time, there were no silver tickets in the bank, and ordinary people used copper plates to hang money, and although silver ingots were also in circulation, they were not common in life. At that time, a bucket of rice only cost five cents, and five taels of silver was enough for a family of three for a whole month. Lu Zhen made such a generous move, which surprised Li Bing. An Qingfang seemed to be out of habit, and seeing Lu Zhen's generous moves, he actually subconsciously glanced at his money bag.
Most of the men in the rivers and lakes are hearty, three or two glasses of wine in the stomach, the atmosphere of this hall is lively, there are names to each other, and those without names express their reverence. You respect me, I respect you, and soon after three rounds of drinking, most of them have been slightly drunk. Only after drinking two bowls at the beginning of the Mozhi Lake, he said that he was unwell and stopped drinking, and glanced at the three lamas from time to time. Li Bing saw it in his eyes and knew that this person was really thoughtful and cautious.
By the time most of the knights were drunk, it was already the third watch. An Qingfang was happy to drink, but he was not strong enough to drink, and after three or two glasses, he fell asleep on the table early. Li Bing had to carry him back to the room, and the two lived in the same room, sleeping in two separate beds.
He couldn't compete with Lu Zhen's enthusiasm, not to mention that Uhra also persuaded him to drink a few more glasses on the side, and now his face was red, and he felt a little uncomfortable, and he couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning in bed, so he began to think about talking in the inn today.
If it is really as Lu Zhen said, after the Tibetan merchant had a secret conversation with Jiang Chengqian, Jiang Chengqian died at home the next day. In this way, Tibet is indeed very suspicious. Needless to say, the content of the conversation must have been brought by Tubo to persuade the Shufeng Chamber of Commerce to submit to it. If persuasion fails, it is reasonable to kill people in anger. If this is the case, the beams of Tubo and the Central Plains will be bigger.
Li Bing was not originally from the rivers and lakes, and he also knew the great influence of the Shufeng Chamber of Commerce. Aside from the thousands of disciples and men under the door, they also have some relationship in black and white, not to mention that the Shufeng Chamber of Commerce is kind to the world's sects, and the president is killed, which may lead to the people of the world's green forests to attack the Tubo group. Tubo took this move, which is really not clever.
After thinking about it, Li Bing was suddenly taken aback by one of his own thoughts: If it wasn't the person killed by Tubo, then what would it be? But who else was there besides Tubo? Could it be the peerless master who killed the three people of Yunqi Sect? Before Li Bing sobered up, he used his brain slightly, and then he felt a headache, stopped thinking about it, and got up and lay on the window to blow cold and sober up.
Looking at the moon outside the window, he thought of his martial arts at this moment: "Today's senior is so strange, after I was really angry, he disappeared out of thin air, and left his sword." Then he thought of the feeling that his true qi was moving with his heart today, and at that moment, with the strength of his whole body, he actually took out his sword and practiced it in the room.
After practicing the three swords of "Starry Night Return", "One Day Star Fight" and "Stars Gongbei", I still didn't feel enjoyable, so I turned out the "Yangyue Sword Technique" and used the moon light to start the "Four Swords of the Moon". A trick "bright moon and clear breeze" is in response to this scene. Li Bingxin moved at will, only to feel that this trick was very easy to use at this time, and he played it several times in a row, shouting happily.
Looking out the window at the bright moon, Li Bing was alone in the room, and he felt homesick. He also picked up the sword and played the "Li family swordsmanship" that he practiced since he was a child, this swordsmanship was used by the children of the Li family to strengthen their bodies from elementary school, although the moves were superficial, but it was taught by his father himself, and he played it at this moment, and the scene of learning the sword when he was a child is still in front of him.
It's been more than three months since I ran away from home, and I don't know if my father is okay?
I don't know how long I practiced, Li Bing was exhausted, and finally woke up from drinking, only to feel that the true qi in the meridians was smooth, and it was connected from head to toe in a cycle, which was very comfortable.
"This Yangyue Sword Technique, it turns out that it is not useless. This was Li Bing's last thought before he fell asleep on the floor.
Following.
When Li Bing woke up, the sky was still just cloudy, and after the hangover, his head really hurt.
Seeing that he had taken off his coat at the moment and was lying on the bed, he was wondering in his heart, and he saw Anzi come in with a tray.
The shopkeeper asked for some porridge for everyone, saying that it was to warm the stomach after drinking, and I ate it deliciously, so I brought you a bowl of it. ”
Li Bing knocked on his temples: "Anzi, did you help me to the bed?"
Anzi didn't look at him, walked straight to the window, picked up the clothes that were hanging outside, and threw them on Li Bing's bed: "Who else besides me, when I got up in the morning, I saw that you were still lying on the ground, and your clothes were full of alcohol, so I helped you take them off and helped you to bed." ”
Li Bing felt a little strange in his heart, but he couldn't say anything wrong, thinking about being undressed by a man, it always felt weird. Fortunately, his head is still dizzy now, so he didn't think much about it, so he said thank you to Anzi and got dressed.
"Brother Li, you have to hurry. Lu Zhen and the others have been waiting downstairs for a while. ”
Li Bing was slightly surprised: "What is he waiting for us to do?"
Anzi poured the water in the wooden bucket into the copper basin, prepared to leave it for Li Bing, and said: "Don't you remember, yesterday he heard that you were also going to the Shufeng Chamber of Commerce and invited you to go with him, and you agreed." The two of them are waiting for you downstairs. ”
Li Bing sighed, seemed to remember that there was such a thing, got dressed, walked to the basin, watered and wiped his face. This dip suddenly sobered up a lot.
didn't wait for him to serve a bowl of porridge, but he heard two screams from downstairs, followed by the voice of Mozhi Lake, shouting: "Come on!"
Li Bing didn't think much about it, and didn't go to the main gate, jumped from the window, and ran wildly to the backyard following the sound, and many people from the rivers and lakes also rushed to hear the sound.
Before he could enter, he saw the lake and a masked man struggling with him. He had already been struck by a sword in his waist, and the masked man saw that he had already struck the grass and startled the snake, and did not linger, and with a sword to repel the ink-stained lake, he was about to leap onto the roof. In a hurry, Mo Dye Lake grabbed it with one claw, wanting to keep the man, but he only tore off a corner of his clothes.
Li Bing walked to the backyard, but the scene in front of him frightened him: Lu Zhen and Uhra were stabbed in the neck, and fell in a pool of blood, obviously exhausted. In a carriage next to him, the old lama and the young lama fell at the entrance of the carriage, their bodies still tied, but they also seemed to be dead.
Seeing that the masked man had gone, Mo Dye Hu covered the wound on his waist with one hand, hurriedly ran to the carriage, opened the door curtain and saw that the little lama was still alive, but he was frightened, and tears were already pouring out of his eyes.
Li Bing stepped forward, ripped off a piece of cloth from his clothes, and handed it to Mozhihu to stop the bleeding from the wound. He also carefully observed the bodies of the two lamas, both of which were pierced through the chest with a sword and two dead. Before he could ask what was going on, Ink-dyed Lake closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. Turning his head to the crowd who came to the rescue, he whispered:
"I thought about the long nights and dreams, and I was worried that Tubo would send someone to rescue them when he received the news, so I decided to escort them back to the Mo family alone, and let the eldest brother take care of the second brother here to recuperate. I asked the innkeeper for a carriage, and asked Lu Zhen and them to help me carry the three lamas into the carriage, and before I could finish it, the masked man jumped from the roof. Seeing that he had bad intentions, Lu Zhen and the others stepped forward to stop him. Who knew that the man's martial arts were extremely high, and he killed both of them with just one move, and then rushed to the carriage.
I thought he was trying to save people, but he actually stabbed the young lama to death with a sword. Originally, he was going to attack the little lama with his second sword, but the old lama suddenly bounced up and blocked a sword for him. I rushed to the front of the carriage, trying to block him. However, that man's martial arts are too high, and he injured my right waist with just one move, if I hadn't dodged in time, I'm afraid that he would have been a dead soul under his sword at this time. It's a good thing you arrived in time, otherwise he would have killed the last living one. ”
Mo Dye Lake said a lot, but Li Bing didn't listen to a word, walked straight to Lu Zhen and the others, saw that their eyes were still open, then squatted down and closed their eyes with his hand.
Last night, the two of them were still drinking and talking, and they thought that Lu Zhen was bold and worthy of friendship, but at this time, it was already yin and yang. Although they have only known each other for less than half a day, Li Bing felt unspeakably uncomfortable in his heart at this time. It is said that the rivers and lakes are dangerous, but he now has a personal experience.
Mozhi Lake also came over, watching the death of the two, and his heart was full of grief. Jianjian knelt on one knee and bowed deeply to the corpses of the two: "Brother, I hurt you!"
Li Bingzheng was about to comfort him, but he saw the cloth torn from the masked man in his hand. The pattern of this material seemed familiar to him, and when he reached out and touched it, it felt familiar, but he thought about it, and he didn't know where he had seen it.
Suddenly, he shuddered, looked at the piece of cloth that Mo Dye Lake was covering his waist, and whispered, "It's them?!"
