CHAPTER XXXI

"Are you full of food and drink?" said the messenger of Pengbu with a smile as he pushed the door open.

The soldier next to him brought two chairs, and Wang Haoyue and Peng Bu sat down and looked at a few people.

"If you want to kill, I don't know anything!" Liu Cong wiped his mouth and said.

"Hehehehe... In Xia Peng, I saw that you were in tatters, and you didn't prepare any gifts empty-handed, are you going to be an envoy, or are you going to beg for food?" Peng Bu opened his mouth slightly and smiled, this word and deed were like Mr. Jijiao.

When the soldiers around him and the guards outside heard this, they all laughed so much that they turned their backs, and there was a little more cheerful atmosphere on the river.

"You old horse..."Bai Xiyue was just about to look at this Peng Bu and scold, but was stopped by Fan Shijin.

Fan Shijin stretched out his hand to block Bai Xiyue, who was disrespectful, and lifted his sleeve again, as if he was weighing the weight of this sleeve, and after a few strokes, Fan Shijin said: "Envoy Peng must be confident about this envoy, this long beard doesn't mean that the knowledge is also long, Envoy Peng, do you say?"

"Haha! The envoy of Shu is also very sharp-toothed, and he will go to the Southern Tang Dynasty in a few days, so he might as well try to compete, if you win in the next boat, he will give you a congratulatory gift as a dowry!" Peng Bu stood up and helped his beard and said calmly.

"Envoy Peng, this... There's no need to, why give this group of gangsters a chance? When the time comes..."Wang Haoyue felt that this matter was very inappropriate, and was just about to dissuade Peng Bu, but Peng Bu stopped Wang Haoyue with one hand, and he could only swallow back these words.

"Yes, Envoy Peng, if you listen to General Wang at this moment, kill me, etc., you may still have a glimmer of possibility for this old man, if you leave us to go to this court, then it is impossible to say, this good thing does not go out, but the bad thing spreads thousands of miles! When it reaches the ears of King Jin, your official position will not be guaranteed, it is better to kill us at this moment!" Xiong Jingchong stood up and confronted this Peng Bu.

"Yellow-mouthed child, you are quick to speak for a while, and this official will spare your life, and if you lose to this official at that time, what will you do?" asked Peng Bu, who took out two fingers from his wide sleeves and pointed at the crowd.

"Fan is an envoy under Xia, these people are just guards hired by me, and they have nothing to do with this matter, they can be compared with you alone, if they are defeated by you, they will be judged on the spot!" Fan Shijin's eyes were trembling, this was the excitement of Wen Dou's gamble.

"Brother Fan, no!" Liu pulled Fan Shijin's sleeve from the side.

Peng Bu looked at Fan Shijin sideways, put his hands behind his back, walked back and forth a few steps and said: "I don't like to fight and kill, if you lose, just kowtow to Zai Xia and admit your mistakes!"

Wang Haoyue still sat on the chair without moving, she was responsible for the escort work this time, this talk and discussion has nothing to do with herself, and she is not good at doing this kind of thing, if something goes wrong, it has nothing to do with herself.

"Okay! This matter is a matter of words! But Envoy Peng, you still have a few days to think about it, although you think it through, if you let me wait until Nantang, don't regret it, hahahahaha!" Xiong said aggressively.

"Don't think about it! Now I will ask General Wang and everyone present to be a witness, I, Peng, and you will fight each other in this Southern Tang Dynasty!" Peng Bu Chengzhu said in his chest.

The surrounding soldiers also shouted for Peng Bu: "Peng Envoy will definitely succeed!"

Only Wang Haoyue, who was sitting, did not have any expression change on his face, silently walked out of the guest room, and said to himself after walking out: "These men like to be reckless, I want to see who kills the deer, hum!"

After Wen Renxing finished cleaning up the dishes, he sat down at the back kitchen table and prepared to eat. There are a few small dishes left on the kitchen table, many of the servants who have started to work have eaten early when no one is full, this time only Wen Renxing is left here to eat these scraps of cold fire, without the other four people to accompany, this person is indeed a little lonely when eating, Wen Renxing picked up the bowl and was stunned, never thought that he had been alone all the way for many years, and never felt the taste of loneliness and loneliness, and even the food was a little more bitter in this situation.

At the beginning, the small country where Wenrenxing was located was annexed, his father set fire to himself, and he was handed over by his father to the people of the Sword Sect, and he grew up learning swords in the Sword Sect since he was a child. The Sword Sect has always had strict rules, specifically beckoning orphans, fallen children, since childhood received extremely strict training, it is rumored that the Sword Sect has thirteen swords, only recognize the top swordsmanship, the Sword Sect is so strict, in order to find a master for the sword, the sect has a prophecy, one day the head of the Sword Sect will lead the thirteen sword disciples to sweep the rivers and lakes, dominate the martial arts, and be the leader of the martial arts alliance in the Central Plains.

Many years ago, Wen Renxing, who was expected to awaken a sword, suddenly disappeared, and after searching for the Sword Sect, there was no trace, only the corpses of many dead soldiers were found in the sword mound, and everyone learned that Wen Renxing had already left the Sword Sect.

"Hey, man, I see you look a little fresh, you're new?" a guy suddenly walked over to Wen Renxing and sat down, chewing something in his mouth.

Wen Renxing didn't turn his head to look at him, he still lowered his head to eat, ate two bites and said, "That's right, I was recruited." ”

The man was dressed in a short shirt with two stout arms exposed, trousers also made of short fabric, woolen linen, and straw sandals. The man was very self-cooked, picked up a handful of melon seeds and put them on the table, and chatted while snorting: "You know this newcomer, in fact, there are rules for newcomers, if you want to do anything else at this time, you need to report to your superiors, like us who do rough work, even if they are missing, it is estimated that they will ask people..."

Wen Renxing listened silently, although his face was not facing the man's side, but the corner of his eye kept paying attention to that side, he did not interrupt the strong man's meaning, and waited quietly for the following.

"After all, a rough person is a rough person, and a rough person can only do rough work, if it is not a rough person, it is not treated like this. Waiting for brocade clothes and jade food, you don't have to think about how to worry about how to live, this is the difference between a useful person and a useless person like me..."The man spit out the shell of the melon seeds, crossed Erlang's legs, and shook the melon seeds while knocking on the melon seeds.

"You say, if this useful person doesn't say goodbye, what should he do?

said that it was too late, Wen Renxing's other hand was already holding the hilt of the sword and was just about to pull it out, but he was pushed back by the strong man's palm, and the strong man immediately took out a short knife with his other hand and slashed it.

Wen Renxing's upper body dodged back, jumped a few steps back with his sword, and opened the distance, and when Wen Renxing saw the person's face clearly, Wen Renxing, who had never shown panic, opened his eyes wide at the moment, and his eyes were full of surprise.

"Senior Brother Wenren, even if you are not in the sect, you have not forgotten to study hard and practice hard every day!

Wen Renxing couldn't believe his eyes, he had been hiding in the rivers and lakes for many years, and he had never met half a disciple of the Sword Sect, why did he suddenly meet him here today.

"[Deng Zai] Senior Brother... You... How do you know my whereabouts?!" Wen Renxing asked.

"The head of the sect has sent a lot of people to look for you, looking for you for many years, I heard that there is a sword god in the town on the edge of the King of Shu, so I passed with the mentality of giving it a try, and when I passed, you seemed to have long since disappeared... I inquired around, it turned out that you went with a traveler, I followed all the way along the way, and every time I pounced, and then I decided not to follow you anymore, and when I heard that you were going to Nantang, I got on this ship as a helper, and the emperor lived up to his wishes! Let me meet you on this ship, haha!" Deng Zai recounted the experience along the way.

"Senior brother can be said to have taken great pains, there are many disciples in the sect, there are not many more than me, and there are many less than me, why bother?" Wen Renxing slowly removed the sword from the scabbard, and the sharp sword light emitted bursts of murderous aura.

"Didn't I say it? This useful person is useful, your senior brother and I are lost, but there are only a few pairs of chopsticks and bowls, the master loves you, you are his heart!" Deng Zai moved his fingers, and the strength of his hand holding the short knife was a little stronger.

Wen Renxing moved his steps, one foot in front and one foot behind, only to see a sword light flashing, and Wen Renxing was already behind Deng Zai.

As soon as Deng Zai turned around, the back kitchen where the light was not very good, suddenly it was dark in front of his eyes, and a sword came towards Deng Zai's abdomen, and the sword just reached the abdomen and poked a hard object.

Wen Renxing was blown out by a punch, Deng Zai saw this and immediately lifted the short knife and was cut over, flying like a wall, Wen Renxing's right shoulder received a heavy blow, at this time even the sword holding the sword was a little unstable, this flying body slashed out the Wenrenxing sword, and Wen Renxing, who had no sword, gasped and stood in front of Deng Zai.

"You have such a good foundation, if you stay in the division all these years, you won't be so weak, follow the senior brother back!" Deng Zai saw that the weapons of the human star had fallen, and he had no intention of continuing to fight.

"Hahaha! Silent Domain!" Wen Renxing stepped forward, grabbed Deng Zai's short knife with his hand and shouted.

Deng Zai didn't react for a while, so he had to wave the knife in all directions, if he didn't know it, he thought that this person had encountered a wasp.

Wen Renxing quickly picked up his sword, and at this time, Deng Zai also recovered his vision from his divine sense, only to see Wen Renxing riveting enough strength to shout: "Sun, Moon and Star Sword Technique!"

I saw seven different colors of sword light flashing in the back kitchen, accompanied by the sword light and the pace of Wen Ren Xing, this sword light is like the light of the sea of stars, and the pace of Wen Ren Xing is like the star light that lights up this star.

"When did the master teach you!?" Deng Zai raised his knife to block this move, but when the sword light stopped flickering, he saw a huge body fall down, and the short blade in his hand was also broken into several pieces.

"Senior brother, if you don't pursue me anymore, I will let you live. Wen Renxing walked over, knelt on Deng Zai's body, raised the sword in both hands, and the sword hung above Deng Zai's head.

Deng Zai smiled contemptuously and said: "Of course I want to live, I promise you, I will not see you this time, when it comes to sitting on me! Don't sit on me, your senior brother and I have been single for many years, you have long hair and fluttering, and you are handsome, be careful that my six relatives don't recognize my senior brother?"

After hearing this, Wen Renxing quickly got up, took the sword back into its scabbard, and sat back at the table, where the food was still hot.
