Chapter 137: Zhongyuan Road
The words "rivers and lakes" are not calm and can be described in the first place, if that is the case, there will naturally be no fun, and they cannot be called rivers and lakes, of course, today's rivers and lakes are a little uneven, at least when Qiu Wan'er's footsteps stepped into the Central Plains, she couldn't help but feel a little strange.
The north wind is blowing slightly, it is not big, in such a season, it can be regarded as a normal thing, there are quite a lot of pedestrians on the road, one by one are a little restrained, as if in this way to relieve the cold in the environment, this in the eyes of the girl, somewhat unaccustomed, you know, if it is at the top of Kunlun, such a slight wind, even if it is at sunrise, it will not be seen, let alone those snowflake days, she originally just thought about it but couldn't let go of those in her heart, nostalgia or unwillingness, probably have an inseparable relationship with Qilian Mountain, but I don't know why, this became more and more confused, so that before Jinjiang City arrived, her footsteps had a posture of completely stopping.
Fortunately, there is a tea shed not far away, not big, not many people, but there are always a few, scattered and distributed, accompanied by the steaming tea on the table, it seems to be chatting about something, looking at the face, it seems to be particularly focused, this may give Qiu Wan'er a good reason, she is not because she is afraid in her heart, but just a little thirsty, after rushing for nearly a day, it is time to find a place to take a good rest, anyway, this is only a few miles away from Jinjiang City, if she lets go of her posture and shows the way of wiping her body, it will only be a quarter of an hour at most, with such ability, naturally, you don't have to grab a little bit of time.
"Guest officer, what kind of tea do you want to have?" The shopkeeper was very enthusiastic, everyone who did business talked about making money in a friendly way, the smile on his face was naturally very obvious, even if it was a face that was not very good-looking, it also made people feel liked, Qiu Wan'er did not rush to answer his words, but chose a nearby table to sit down, put the long sword in his hand like this, and then said: " It doesn't matter what kind of tea you drink, as long as you can quench your thirst, if you have any melon and fruit snacks here, you can also prepare some, I came all the way, but I am a little hungry, I have to find a way to fill my stomach!"
Such an answer may be right to the meaning of the shopkeeper, you know, the person who can say this must be a good greeting master, this deal, that is also done, he naturally has nothing to stay, the moment is good, the whole person is busy, taking advantage of this gap, Qiu Wan'er is not idle, her eyes slowly, looking around, although she has not seen the scene of Jinjiang City for some years, but it still looks unusually familiar, so that her originally restless heart is naturally calmed down a little, however, when her eyes stay on the person's body, that look in her eyes, and then showed a slightly puzzled gesture.
A young girl like her, and she looks quite good-looking, especially this cyan dress, under the playfulness, she can naturally attract enough attention, which is not an uncommon thing, this way, has never stopped, gradually, she got used to it, but at this moment, she felt that there was a strange look hidden in the eyes of those people, as if they were looking at some monster that should not appear, curious and alert, and when Qiu Wan'er's attention was focused on them, these individuals hurriedly avoided it, and while burying their heads, they whispered a few words, and quicklyThen one of them took out a few copper plates from his pocket, put them on the table, and without speaking, the group left directly.
Maybe he heard the footsteps, the shopkeeper also hurriedly turned around, put away the copper plate on the table, a pot of tea, naturally not expensive, these copper plates, that is also more than wrong, maybe this is also a good deal, the shopkeeper's face, that kind of joyful look, naturally there is no need to cover up, weigh the teapot, wipe the water traces on the table, these actions, for him, was originally a living of eating, I don't know how many times he has done it, naturally he is familiar with it, there is no difficulty, but when his body turned back to the stove, he was suddenly pulled by someone: "Little second brother, let me ask you something, do you know these people?"
When she asked this, Qiu Wan'er suddenly didn't know how to ask, so she just asked for no reason, but she still figured out what she wanted to ask, so for a while, her tone could stop, and when her gaze fell on the other party, it was as if others could read something from her actions, and in fact, the shopkeeper was really capable, this was not a big deal, people who do business naturally have to learn to guess other people's thoughts, and do what they like, that is the most critical thing in the business experience, when this person stopped, his hand was not idle, and he shook it so violently, the veil was already on his shoulder, and in that tone, there was also a tentative question: "Guest officer, what you want to ask is why these people left suddenly, and what did they say between them?"
Being said like this, Qiu Wan'er really felt that she meant this, she couldn't pretend to be hypocritical, and she naturally nodded lightly at the moment, which was an affirmation of the other party's words, at this moment, on her face, the curious temperament naturally flowed out again, and the gesture of anticipation was full, but it was the shopkeeper, almost as if she had not been affected in any way, and her tone was still the same as usual:" This is normal, they are spies sent by the Martial Arts League to be stationed in Jinjiang City, girl, you are dressed like this, and you are holding a long sword in your hand, they naturally know that you are from the rivers and lakes, this may be to rush back to report to the upper line or something, it's not a big deal, girl, you don't need to mind too much!"
"Wulin League, what kind of organization is that, or what kind of place, I have only heard of some Qilian Mountain near the Jinjiang River, it is one of the four major sects, why have I never heard of any martial arts league or anything like that on this Jianghu, could it be that the rising sect?" This shop Xiao Er doesn't say, Qiu Wan'er is a kind of thought, probably guessing randomly, but this said, Qiu Wan'er is another kind of thought, I don't know the so-called four words, at this moment can be described as a perfect interpretation, anyway, to this dusk and sunset, the time when the milk swallow returns to the nest, there are no guests here, naturally there is no need to be busy, was asked by the other party so much, he also followed up with interest, took advantage of the situation to move the bench a little away, sat up, and had a great plan to calm down and slowly explain to people:" It seems that the girl should be from out of town, I don't know what happened in the Central Plains martial arts, anyway, I am also hearsay, listening to these tea guests from the south to the north, it is better to talk to you!"
When it comes to chattering such words, the voice of the shopkeeper is obviously much quieter, except for him and Qiu Wan'er, there is no third party around, but the shopkeeper's expression is obviously a little thicker at this moment, and the eyes can't stop looking around, full of vigilance, such a move, if it were on weekdays, Qiu Wan'er would definitely laugh, but today, she obviously restrained a little, and did not show a trace of abnormality, and even stopped interjecting half a sentence, just waiting for the other party to continue。
"Half a month ago, a big thing happened on the rivers and lakes, Shen Wansan, you know the owner of Shen Zhuang of Mingyue Villa, right?" There was a slight pause, as if she was emphasizing, and as if she was waiting for Qiu Wan'er's answer, at this moment, the shopkeeper was like a storyteller, trying to find some key points, so that people could care about what he said, of course, the girl just nodded lightly, and didn't want to interrupt the other party's meaning, but her meaning could be regarded as an accurate transmission of the past, and the shopkeeper's goal was achieved, and naturally he said:" That's amazing, he was actually killed in front of the cemetery in the back mountain of his house, and the person who was killed, who are you, it was actually the Holy Maiden of the Blue Lotus Demon Sect, Shui Linglong, and the outcast, Han Tanyi, who was the outcast, if it weren't for these two extremely vicious people, think about it, how capable the Lord of Shen Zhuang is, and who has the ability to take his life in this river and lake, so ah, as soon as the news came out, the entire rivers and lakes exploded, and they all said that they came for revenge, if it was just those people who embarrassed them, I was afraid that the demonic nature would be launched, that is, to slaughter the entire rivers and lakes, these two people also did it, so in order to prevent this, Shen Chengbi, the new owner of Bright Moon Mountain Villa, and Dao Tianfeng, the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, joined forces to create the Martial Arts Alliance, in order to deal with these two people, as well as the Blue Lotus Demon Sect behind them!"
The first half of the sentence of this shopkeeper, Qiu Wan'er was already full of shock, what kind of character Shen Wansan was, she naturally knew that such a strong person, someone could actually kill him, it was originally an incredible thing, but later, when she said the three words Hantanyi, the girl's body shook a little, and the whole expression was stunned, I don't know what he was thinking in his heart at this moment, the only thing that can be sure is that the shopkeeper's follow-up words have become self-talk, Qiu Wan'er has no mind to listen to it at all, this thought is complicated at the same time, her mind is also blank。
