"Sometimes it's time to admit that we're old. Zhang Yuanzong raised his eyelids and said to him.

"If you really have to admit that you are old, then you will not come to Nanjing. Xu Laodao didn't take him too seriously, and shook the dust in his hands. The upper and lower lips touched and sneered unceremoniously.

"You should know that you follow the one. There are things that people don't want to do, but they have to do at a certain time. Zhang Yuanzong also said with a smile.

"I'm not interested in what you want to do. Xu Laodao also stood up and said.

"What do you want. Zhang Yuanzong also knew that Xu Laodao was going to talk about the key points, so he also raised his head and asked Xu Laodao.

"Stay away from the Fang family's child. Xu Laodao also stared at Zhang Yuanzong's eyes.

"Fang Liangping's son?" Zhang Yuanzong also squinted and thought.

"I advise you not to go and inquire about that child, or it will be like stabbing a hornet's nest, and not only will we trouble you. Xu Laodao walked downstairs and warned Zhang Yuanzong. But whether Zhang Yuanzong listened to it or not is another matter.

"It's interesting, but wouldn't it be too boring if you didn't come out of this big thing of ours?" Zhang Yuanzong looked at the disappeared Xu Laodao and muttered to himself.

Another day has passed, and there are only three days before the New Year. But the three teenagers standing in the six doors were clearly not so happy. Because Liu Yutian threw a piece of paper directly in front of them and said, "When are you going to wait? I will never allow this case to drag on until the next year, do you understand?"

The three of them also nodded and said, "Yes, yes, we will definitely do this case well honestly." Liu Yutian also glanced at the three of them with satisfaction, then turned around and went inside. As soon as Liu Yutian left, the young man in brocade on the far left was also the first to pull down his face and say, "What kind of bad luck am I, this has something to do with me." ”

"Xu Xiang, don't talk too much, Fang Xiao and I are still being scolded for doing things, you have been lying at home for a day, what's wrong with walking with us?" Mu Liu also said angrily.

"That is, if you have to complain, don't talk to us, go to your father. Are we still angry? Who am I going to reason with? Fang Xiao also glanced at Xu Xiang and said.

"Hey, what's the matter, it's all for me. Xu Xiang also said, "Okay, two masters, I was wrong about this, let's go and do things first." ”

"Let's go. Fang Xiao also knew that it was not a matter to be frozen here, and with a wave of his hand, Mu Liu and Xu Xiang also followed him out of the door of the six doors.

"Where to go first?" asked Mu Liu.

"Qiankun Dart Bureau. Fang Xiao also spit out four words.

"You're giving me a problem. Mu Liu also looked at Fang Xiao and said.

"Is it difficult?" Xu Xiang asked ignorantly.

"Forget it, sooner or later, I'm going to have to go through this way. Mu Liu directly ignored Xu Xiang's questioning, and waved his hand. and led the way ahead of them.

The three of them are all people who practice martial arts, even if they don't use light skills, their feet are not comparable to ordinary people, and they rush to the door of the Qiankun Dart Bureau from time to time. Nanjing's Qiankun dart game is open in the north of the city. Because of the goods, it is chosen at a corner where the flow of people is not dense. But the open door and the four golden characters on the plaque still show its identity - the largest dart game in the Ming Dynasty, the Qiankun dart game.

The dart bureau was originally a place to do business, so Fang Xiao and his party walked into the courtyard, and no one came out to stop them when they went inside. After entering the lobby, I was greeted by a very long table, an old man like a bamboo pole, with a bit of shrewdness between his eyebrows, but the most attractive thing was that his beard was half a foot long, like the roots of the old banyan tree, fluttering in the wind. Behind him, a row of long cabinets, like the place where the herbs were placed in the medicine shop, were neatly divided into squares.

"Three sons, are you here to dart?" said the old man, who also opened his eyes that seemed to be holding up.

"Old shopkeeper, we are here to find the second master. Fang Xiao also arched his hand and said.

"Do you want to see the second master?" the old man also smiled and shook his head when he heard this, "You are not qualified enough. ”

Mu Liu took out a small token and threw it on the table and said, "Then add this thing, I don't know if it's enough?"

The old man also picked up the sign and looked at it carefully and said, "Six doors, it's enough." But the little brother is just a bronze medal catcher, if Liu Yutian comes over and maybe he will be fine. "Although the Qiankun Dart Bureau is a businessman, but on the six doors, it has the consistent style of martial arts people, that is, to look down on it.

"Then we must meet?" Xu Xiang also said on the side.

"Childe just have to give it a try. The old man smiled and finished speaking, and the big men on the side also gathered around.

"Why bother?" Mu Liu also smiled when he saw this scene.

"Three sons, you can retreat now. The old man also touched his beard and said.

"Old man, I misunderstood what my friend meant. Fang Xiao also smiled and closed the folding fan and said, "What he means, why bother so much, since you don't let us go to see the second master, then we can just let the second master come out." ”

Fang Xiao didn't look at the strong men who surrounded him, his fingers flew, and several volleys flicked out of the air, and in an instant, the strong men who just wanted to get close to the three of them fell to the ground one by one. These strong men also couldn't move, and just lay there like this, their eyes full of helplessness.

"Now old man, can you let us go to see the second master?" Xu Xiang also asked with a smile.

"The old man underestimated the three sons, but this is not enough. After the old man finished speaking, his figure also flew backwards, and two white-clothed swordsmen also rushed out from the left and right, heading straight for the three of them.

"That's a killer move. Mu Liu also smiled and pulled out the embroidered spring knife, and said after blocking it.

"This is the second master to give us the exam questions, we have to perform well. "Xu Xiang is also a sword in hand, I have it in the world. Fang Xiao also knew that he had the intention to show off his skills, and it was also a fact that he was full of energy, his body flew in the air, and he was transferred to one side of the roof, so he simply sat down, and he had the intention of watching this battle.

The Mu Liu also smiled and waved his hand to split the mountains and rivers with a sword, and the white-clothed swordsman was busy dodging when he saw the knife flying, and Mu Liu's sword qi also flew straight over, leaving a knife edge on the pillar that was not shallow or deep.

"Don't hide, I don't have much time, let's finish early and rest early. Mu Liu took advantage of his mouth, but the knife in his hand was faster, and chased after the white-clothed swordsman, who was also bitter, and said in his heart why there were so many masters today, but since the two of them rushed out, there was no possibility of stopping. Over there, Xu Xiaogong also pressed the white-clothed swordsman from beginning to end, and a sword in his hand was also like a swimming dragon, shuttling between someone's waist, the swordsman was also bitter, and he fought more than ten hands, Xu Xiang found a flaw in that person, and he didn't bother to stab him, and slapped the sword body horizontally, and slapped it on the swordsman's head, and the swordsman also fell to the ground in a daze. Although the shepherd was a little ahead of Xu Xiang, the swordsman blindly avoided it, and there was nothing he could do. Fang Xiao also frowned, with a flick of his wrist, the fan in his hand flew out with a whoosh, and then looked at the other end, the white-clothed swordsman had been knocked to the ground by the folding fan, and the folding fan also returned to Fang Xiao's hand after crossing an arc.

"Fang Xiao, you're going too far. Mu Liu also said to Fang Xiao after standing firm on the ground.

"Xu Xiang is faster than you, so there's no need to compare. Fang Xiao also flew down from the roof, and the white clothes swayed with the wind, floating like a fairy.

"It's really boring, I can't fight a single one. Mu Liu also pouted and said.

"What's the hurry. Fang Xiao also pulled him along. He bowed slightly to the left and said, "Six Doors Fang Xiao has seen the second master of the Qiankun Dart Bureau. ”

Fang Zhutou was polite. On the left, a strong man dressed in black also walked out.

Fang Xiao and the three of them also squinted their eyes and looked him up and down with a very cold look. That Qian Weilian is a strong man with a big waist and a round waist, a Chinese face with a bit of majesty, tiger eyes are very round, and his beard blocks his mouth, but it also adds a bit of heroism.

"Isn't it embarrassing enough?" Qian Weilian also flipped his fingers, popped out a few flying fingers, and said after unlocking the acupoints of those people, "Don't roll down yet." The strong men didn't moan twice and went inside honestly.

"I don't know what the three sons are looking for me?" Qian Weilian also smiled after scolding everyone here.

"The second master, we are here to ask the second master something. Mu Liu also stood up and said.

"It's good to have something to say, I try to know everything. Qian Weilian also nodded and said.

"Can the second master know Hong Xiuqian?" Mu Liu also stared at Qian Weilian and asked,

"Hong Xiuqian?" Qian Weilian said after thinking about it, "It turns out that you are here for that matter, let me think about it." ”

"We are not in a hurry, the second master can think about it, especially the events of that night. Fang Xiao also smiled and showed a few white teeth.

"It should be the second day I arrived here, the family here said that they wanted to pick up the wind and wash the dust for me, so they took me to Hong Xiuqian's painting boat, which is also interesting, you don't look at me like a big old man, but I just like that elegant thing, this Hong Xiuqian plays a good tune, and I go there quite a lot. However, the peonies on the Qinhuai River are naturally expensive, even if I go to them, there are not many. Qian Weilian really seemed to be looking for a memory, and said with his eyes closed.

"Let's talk about that night. Fang Xiao also said with a chuckle.

"Young people just can't stand it. Qian Weilian also laughed and scolded and said, "This Hong Xiuqian's boat, on non-specific days, only entertains three guests a day, and each guest has an hour. I was the second to get on the boat that day, but maybe I was late, and the man in front of me had already left, so I didn't wait there and went upstairs. ”

"Do you usually wait for guests?" asked Mu Liu, who also squinted.

"This is natural, no one can be so dead in time, or he arrives early, or the last guest has not left, there is always some time difference, and when he encounters one or two difficult guests, he still needs the bustard to invite him out. Qian Weilian also explained.

"Okay, I see. Let's move on. Fang Xiao also spoke.

Then I went into Hong Xiuqian's room, and it was no different. However, Hong Xiuqian only played the piano and sang songs that day, and did not communicate with me. Qian Weilian also said.

"Oh, isn't that normal?" asked Makiliu.

"Uh. Xu Xiang also accosted him, "I'll answer this, Qingqi people, naturally they don't do the skin and meat business, but they also make a living by laughing, so it's normal to chat with guests, otherwise it's not good to listen to the play in the hook bar?"

"This little brother is a person who understands. Qian Weilian also glanced at Xu Xiang meaningfully, and Xu Xiang blushed embarrassedly. Fang Xiao squinted and thought for a while and asked, "I don't know if the second master saw Hong Xiuqian that day?"

"See? Qian Weilian also said, "There was a curtain that day, but it should be her to look at the shadow." ”

"Is this kind of thing common?" Fang Xiao also asked.

"The curtain is an inevitable thing, one is also a person, it is inevitable that there is a bad health, the curtain has the meaning of not letting the guests get sick, and the other is that the Qingqi people always do not want to see the guests, and it is not good to refuse, then the curtain is separated, out of sight is clean. Qian Weilian also said.

"If you want to come to the second master, it must not be the second type, so this Hong Xiuqian was sick that day?" Fang Xiao also said to herself.

"That's what you say, that's true. Last time, she didn't talk much through the curtain, only playing the piano. I think it was not in a good state that day. Qian Weilian also said.

"When did the second master leave?" Fang Xiao also continued to ask.

"Exactly one hour. Qian Weilian also said with certainty, "Because Hong Xiuqing didn't talk much, I listened to the tune I wanted to hear, and then left after sitting idle for a while." ”

"The second master can run into the latter guest. Mu Liu also asked.

"No, it shouldn't have arrived. But even if we arrived, we wouldn't run into it, because the manager of the painting boat was afraid of conflicts between the guests, so he tried his best not to let the guests run into it. Qian Weilian also said.

"In that case, we'll be fine. Fang Xiao also saluted Qian Weilian and said, "See you back, the second master." ”

"Wait!" Looking at Fang Xiao and the three of them who turned around to leave, Qian Weilian also spoke.

"What's the matter? The second boss wants to settle the previous accounts with us?" Mu Liu also looked at Qian Weilian and said.

And then. "A wooden sign also flew towards Fang Xiao, and Fang Xiao also picked it up with his hand and saw three words on it: 'Yin Yang Order'

"Next time you come, just walk in and find me, my things are all old things, they are not cheap, this Yin and Yang Order, wherever you go to the Qiankun Dart Bureau, I think you kid is very pleasing to the eye, so I'll give it to you." Qian Weilian also said as he walked inside.
