The light smoke building was smoky, the sound of musical instruments came and went, the aftermath was lingering, and various aromas and the smell of cigarette bags were mixed together to form an unpleasant smell that filled his nose, Xu Zining sat in a corner, holding a teacup, watching the bewitching figure sway back and forth in front of him, and frowned.

Seeing this, Xu Weixiang couldn't help but smile, his right hand formed a fist, and gently pressed it against his lips and coughed lightly, "My heart is obviously disgusted, and I still pretend to enjoy it, which is really embarrassing for the second son." ”

When Xu Zining was annoyed and didn't know how to respond, an older woman dressed gorgeously and brightly, with heavy makeup on her face, walked up, fanned the pink silk handkerchief in her hand, and said with a smile, "This master, which girl do you like?"

With a sharp voice ringing in his ears, Xu Zining's tea in his mouth almost squirted out, and it took a long time to calm down, and the corners of his mouth barely hooked up a smile, "You are here... Belch... Bustard mother?"

"Exactly. The old bustard held an incense fan to cover his mouth and nose, but it was difficult to hide his smile like a flower, "This is the first time the two of you have come here, right? ”

Xu Zining stabilized his mind and said with a smile, "Is there a girl of different races?" For example, Aina from Hengjiang." ”

The old bustard's smile froze on his face, but he quickly came back to his senses, "Aina! She was taken by a rich boy a few days ago and ransomed her with a lot of money. As for the other Hengjiang girls, we won't be able to accept them!, or I'll find you another girl?"

Xu Zining smiled and said nothing, taking in the trace of panic that flashed in the old bustard's eyes, and continued to drink tea casually, Xu Weixiang understood, took out a silver ingot, and put it on the table, "My young master likes girls from Hengjiang, the girls there are more charming, money is not a problem, you just go to find it." ”

"That's... The two masters waited. I'll come when I go. ”

The old bustard twisted and left, and when she walked away, Xu Zining sighed deeply, raised his hand and pinched his brows, and Xu Weixiang, who had endured it for a long time, couldn't control it anymore, and actually laughed lowly, Xu Zining threw a look over and pinched him fiercely, "Is it so funny?"

In the shade of the second floor, covered by the pillars and covered by a large celadon vase, the old bustard approached a man and saluted respectfully, "Master." ”

This man is seven feet tall, with a strong build, dressed in black, with a light copper-colored face, and a pair of eyes that seem to be smiling, revealing a bottomless coldness. This person is the Hengjiang merchant Ashqi who has been in frequent contact with Zhu Luofeng, the king of Qingping, recently.

Ashqi quietly observed Xu Zining and the others downstairs, "Who are they?"

"I don't know, I look like a young master from a high-ranking and aristocratic family, I'm not very old, and I'm going to cross the border when I enter the door, but I seem to be a little young, but it seems like the first time I've come to this kind of place. ”

Ash touched his nose, his eyes releasing almost invisible killing intent, "Girl from Hengjiang?" Take the two of them to a secluded private room on the second floor, and I'll go to the meeting. ”

"Yes"

After a pot of tea, the old bustard came leisurely, with a strange aroma floating on his body, and his face was still smiling like a flower, "Let the two masters wait for a long time, I will talk about it before I persuade a girl from Hengjiang to come out and serve." This person has a lot of eyes, I specially vacated a private room for the two of you to play, it is better to ......"

Xu Zining stared at the bustard carefully, and finally saw an imperceptible flicker in her eyes, then glanced at Xu Weixiang, and smiled casually, "Okay! It's really inconvenient to play in the lobby, lead the way!"

The old bustard smiled happily, his eyes greedily staring at the large piece of silver still on the table, "Is this silver..."

Xu Zining stood up slowly, a bohemian smile appeared on his face, "Of course it's yours, if I am happy to play, there will be a reward." ”

The old bustard hurriedly accepted the money, afraid that the little boy opposite would regret it, "Oh, then thank you so much, two, come with me." ”

"Happy?" When the two of them went upstairs with the bustard, Xu Weixiang whispered, his eyes vigilantly observing the surrounding environment and the figures coming and going.

Xu Zining sighed lightly, suddenly became extremely dignified, lowered his voice to the lowest, and said, "It doesn't matter if you're happy or not, the important thing is that we can get out of here alive." ”

"What?" Xu Weixiang's eyes widened suddenly, "Then you still ......"

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get the tiger?"

......

"Second master, this is here. The old bustard ushered the two into a secluded room, "The girl is still dressing up, and she will come soon." "Say that, leave leisurely.

The two looked carefully, the room was lit with incense burners, filled with a faint fragrance of pear blossoms, the hollow carved windows, the mahogany bed was neatly covered with soft brocade quilts, there was a mahogany table in the corner, the table was displayed with a zither, there was a copper mirror on the wooden dresser next to it, and there were delicate jewelry boxes stacked on both sides of the copper mirror, and there was a round table outside the room, separated from the inner room by a screen, and there was a porcelain teapot and tea bowl on the round table, the teapot and tea bowl were printed with plum blossom patterns, and the four silver lamp stands were placed in an orderly manner, and the candle stands were inserted with gold red candles, and the candles were burning brightly, and the whole room was brightly lit。

Xu Weixiang walked around the room, and finally stopped beside Xu Zining, "Childe, my subordinates have checked, there is no problem with the pear blossom incense burning in the incense burner, and there is no organ message switch that can send out hidden weapons in other places." ”

"Good. ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden movement in the ears, which was particularly harsh in the quiet room, and then, several sharp arrows broke through the window, and the two quickly dodged one by one, Xu Zining gave Xu Weixiang a look, Xu Weixiang understood, pulled out the soft sword hidden in his waist, and made Ling Bo walk around the room in small steps, and stopped in less than half a cup of tea, and after a while, the doors and windows were broken, and the bodies of several black-clothed people fell head-on.

At this time, another man in black swung a knife at Xu Zining and slashed head-on, Xu Zining pushed it backhand unhurriedly, the knife in the hand of the man in black instantly flew out, and the man in black casually pulled out a short sword from his body and went straight to Xu Zining's front door, Xu Zining dodged it, and then pushed forward with his backhand to transport the internal force, raised his palm and shook off the short sword in the hand of the man in black, the man in black suddenly felt that his arm was numb, and the short sword fell from his hand to the ground, just in the blink of an eye, a long sword with a cold light was already on his neck.

'Bang Bang!' There was an abrupt high-five, and then Ashqi entered the room with two entourages, all three of whom were dressed as Hengjiang people, "Shaoxia is very skilled." ”

When he was young, Xu Zining put his sword back into its sheath, looked up and down at the person who was talking in front of him, vaguely guessed the identity of the other party, and the smile between his eyebrows grew stronger, "Who are you? Aren't you the owner behind the light smoke building?"

"Not bad. Ashqi was still smiling.

"Yo he!" Xu Weixiang on the side deliberately pretended to be ignorant and made a strange sound, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a touch of mockery, "I have been wandering the rivers and lakes for many years, but I don't know that there are bosses and men in the land of fireworks." ”

The two attendants behind Ashqi were about to have a seizure, but they were stopped by Ashqi, "Let the two of them laugh." ”

Xu Zining frowned slightly, "You can't talk about laughing, but it's yours to treat guests in this way." You said yes, right?" he raised his hand quietly. The hand of the man in black who had just been restrained by him was suddenly nailed to the wall by a flying knife, and the man in black screamed loudly in pain after realizing it.

Ash was shocked, he didn't even see how the boy made a move, it seemed that the knife grew out of the hand of the man in black, and he couldn't help but sigh at the speed of his shot.

Ashqi retreated from the entourage that surrounded him, and saluted Xu Zining with a smile and a cross-border salute, "Don't be angry with this young man, you have something to say." ”

"Have something to say?" Xu Zining smiled, walked straight to the round table and sat down, then pinched a teacup and played with it, "With so many people present, I can't speak properly." ”

Ashqi yelled at the entourage and killer who were still stunned, "What are you still doing in a daze?

"Yes. ”

The room was quiet, and only Xu Zining, Xu Weixiang, and Ashqi were left. Ashqi smiled at Xu Zining and said, "I don't know which dignitary family you are the son of?

"None of that matters. As he spoke, Xu Zining glanced at Xu Weixiang, and Xu Weixiang immediately took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and slapped them on the table, "My young master has come here thousands of miles away just to discuss a big business with you." I wonder if you want to?"

"Oh, what business?" said Ash, slightly surprised.

Xu Zining smiled, "You are from Hengjiang, what has happened in Hengjiang recently, you don't know it, right?"

Ashqi pondered for a while, and then was startled, "Could it be that you are also a friend from the north?"

"Looks like you've vaguely guessed what kind of business it is. Xu Zining smiled, did not admit or deny, and looked at Ashqi with slightly deep eyes, "Give me a happy word, do you take this list, or not?"

Ashqi hesitated for a while, then put down his heart and pocketed all the silver tickets on the table, "It's rare for a son to be so generous, and I won't let you down." ”

"Good. ”

......

The sun is setting, twilight is coming, the first drum is beating, the street has begun to quiet down, in the guest room on the second floor of the Hengxiang Inn, Xu Zining poured a cup of cold water and drank it, constantly adjusting his breathing, Xu Weixiang couldn't help but sigh when he saw this, "Is the second son okay?"

Xu Zining threw a glance over, "Schadenfreude!"

Xu Weixiang said, "The subordinates don't dare, the subordinates just want to remind the second son not to forget to pay back." ”

“......”
