Tie Shou looked at Qin Han in front of him who didn't stop for a moment, and couldn't help but be a little overwhelmed, when he taught him this set of introductory knife techniques before, it was like squeezing toothpaste, if he didn't supervise himself, this guy wouldn't take the initiative to practice at all, and regarded it as chicken ribs.

Now look at this guy's practice, he must have practiced a lot, and he has already reached the strength of the Nine Rank Realm, which is really a bit unexpected by the iron hand, I thought that when he reached the Nine Rank Realm, with his lazy temperament, he would get more than a year or two later.

When Qin Han was out of breath and sweating profusely, he couldn't practice before he stopped, and the iron hand stepped forward and squatted and said, "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, just do what I ask you to do, you are so easy to go mad!"

Qin Han took a deep breath and said directly, "Is there any news from Brother Deng?"

Tieshou knew that he would ask this, almost every time he saw him these days, he would ask such a question, sighed and said: "I know that you have always felt guilty about Xiao Deng, but doing us this, the danger is like a commonplace, you can't blame anyone, you can only blame yourself for not being good at learning, and the group of people who may kidnap or kill Xiao Deng are not the same as you imagined, after so many years of encirclement and suppression, all those who remain are witty, and their skills are also high and terrifying." ”

Then he paused and continued: "I think you should put this matter down first, just keep it in your heart, and when you really have the strength in the future, it is not too much to do anything, now this will only make anger overwhelm your mind, and there will be no good results for the rest." After saying this, the iron hand didn't say anything more, just patted Qin Han's shoulder lightly and left.

......

Xizi joined the Qingcheng Salt Gang half a year ago, because people are mentally and smart, and soon became one with everyone in the Salt Gang, last month Xizi was sent to the helmsman's house to help cook, this is a good errand, maybe one day he will get the helmsman's blue eyes, Xizi is naturally happy to go.

It was late at night, and Xizi cleaned up and planned to go back to the house to rest, when a brother on duty at night suddenly walked in and said, "Xizi, two dishes, a few brothers will drink for a while." ”

At this hour, he was naturally full of reluctance, but he didn't know how to agree to it, and it took a stick of incense to get some wine and food and then hurriedly served it, and those people waited for him eagerly, and when he came, he took the dish in his hand with a smile and said: "Come here, let's drink together!"

Xizi was a drunkard who didn't mean to drink, so he sat down half-pushed and half-pushed, and a group of big men drinking together was nothing more than a gag, and after a while, they began to call their brothers up, and one of them said: "That Xiaohong of the drunken fairy building didn't say it, that's really called one..."

As he spoke, he took the wine in the bowl and drank it down, and then before he could open his mouth, he said, "Come on, what can you do, Xiaohong's guest of the scene? Let's not talk about whether people can look down on you? Can you afford to spend thirty taels of silver a night?"

"Hey, I can't see it!"

"If you just look at it, what is she Xiaohong! You didn't go to the Oiran Conference in Yancheng last time, but Lao Tzu can go, that woman from the Western Regions, tsk, if you accompany Lao Tzu for one night, I will admit that I will live three years less!"

"Is that really that exaggerated?"

Before the man could speak, Xizi, who was on the side, spoke: "Brother Li really didn't talk nonsense, I also went last time." ”

"Look, I'm not lying!" Then the rest of the people said to Kiko, "Tell me quickly, what the hell is going on?"

"Last time the Oiran Contest was not to mention ordinary people, but the big and small officials of Yancheng were all present, I heard that even the officials of the neighboring Suzhou came several, and I heard that it seems that even the head of the Inspector's Mansion Branch has passed, and nearly half of them are going to this woman from the Western Regions, you can imagine. ”

The topic was inadvertently shifted, but the rest of the people were still unaware, and some even said: "Cut, how mysterious you blew those people before, I can't see that as it is!"

Xizi frowned unintentionally when he heard this: "Alas, Brother Yuan's words are wrong, I heard them say that the people in the Inspector's Mansion are all strong in martial arts, and they don't even frown when they kill people, and the way to torture people is something that only you can't think of without them." ”

At this time, everyone drank a little, and their tongues were a lot bigger when they spoke, and the man surnamed Yuan said with a big tongue when he heard this: "What I tell you now, don't spread it, otherwise it will be light to turn around." ”

"You don't know how many of us brothers, but let's say, each of them has a mouth that is tighter than the widow's legs. ”

"A few days ago, the gang summoned brothers with good skills and solid foundations, you know?"

"I must know that if a person gives ten taels of silver, I can't get so much for a year of hard work, and I didn't envy you at that time. ”

"Do you know what we're doing?"

Several people shook their heads, and the man surnamed Yuan couldn't help but smile proudly when he saw this: "We went to rob the convoy of the Inspector's Mansion, I heard that dozens of them died, brother and another brother really fought with a boy from the Inspector's Mansion for a while, and the skills are really good, but how can you blow so mysterious?"

......

Qin Han, accompanied by Tie Shou at this moment, entered the arsenal of the Yancheng Branch of the Inspector's Mansion, and looked at the dazzling array of weapons in front of him, and was really a little overwhelmed, but the most of them were all standard Yan Feather Knives, but this blade definitely had nothing to do with him, Tie Shou glanced at him and said, "You kid can take whatever he likes." ”

Because the iron hand taught him the knife technique, Qin Han unconsciously turned his attention more to the knife, horizontal knife, waist knife, ring head knife, and so on, it seems that they are all not bad, one of the ring head knives is even more majestic, Qin Han stepped forward and was about to take down this knife, and the iron hand said on the side: "This knife is eighteen catties and seven taels, but it is not something that you little doll can play." ”

Hearing this, he seemed to be angry in his heart, and he took down the knife without thinking about it, the iron hand really didn't lie, it was indeed quite heavy, and the length of the knife was nearly half a zhang, and it was almost up to Qin Han's height, and he was only a head higher than the knife when he stood in front of him, and he could play it, but he didn't have to hurt others like that, and he would be exhausted after a while, so he had to laugh twice and put the knife back in its place.

In the end, he picked and chosen, and finally chose a one-foot-long, short and powerful waist knife, and played it twice at will, the length and size were just put together, Qin Han was extremely satisfied, and with the characteristics of the Inspector's Mansion, it can be said that it can be attacked, retreated, and defended.

Seeing this, Tie Shou also nodded, then walked to the last two shelves of the arsenal, and after taking out two vials and six crossbow arrows, he said to Qin Han: "This is the poison of the characteristics of the Ding Group of the Inspector's Mansion, you have to pack it well, there is almost no cure for ordinary people who have fallen into this poison." ”

Then he took a vial and said, "This is the antidote to this poison, lest you accidentally hurt someone and there is no cure." ”

Hearing this contradictory statement, Qin Han had to nod and solemnly put these murderous weapons into his arms, and then said again: "Lord Wang asked me to bring you a message, you don't have to do anything this year, just concentrate on studying, and you must pass the government exam then." Qin Han had always been a little puzzled why Wang Qi was so concerned about his studies, but he was used to it, even if he asked them, he wouldn't say, and then walked home silently.

I didn't know what I was thinking about along the way, but under my feet I came to Wang Yuxiu's tailor's shop, at this time Xiu'er was concentrating on accompanying the guests in the store to pick fabrics, and from time to time she also introduced that she was much taller than more than a year ago, and half a head taller than Qin Hanlai, and the clothes of previous years were now worn on her, I am afraid that even the navel would not be able to cover it.

"Xiu'er, do you have a favorite person? If not, what do you think of that kid in my family?"

"Aunt!" Xiu'er said with annoyance on her face.

"You Nizi is good at everything, but you can't say this, could it be that you already have a crush?"

Xiu'er heard this and her face was even more red, the young girl in Huaichun, she wanted to be ashamed, and her blushing face was about to drip water, no wonder many people were obsessed with this, the middle-aged woman covered her mouth and laughed twice before she stopped teasing her, weighed two pieces of cloth and left the store with a smile, and did not forget to tell Xiu'er when she left, "If you really can't do it, consider your own children and nephews." “

Xiu'er, who went out to see off guests, also saw Qin Han standing not far away at a glance, and a trace of joy flashed in her eyes and shouted, "You wait!"

In fact, Qin Han regretted that he was seen by her, because he really didn't know how to face this Nizi, and he was always afraid of hurting her, so he hadn't seen her a few times in the past year, and it didn't take long for Xiu'er to run out and couldn't help but say, "Where are you going?"

Qin Han thought for a while and said, "Let's go to Yingyue Lake, I haven't been there for a long time." ”

The girl's heart is like a spring in March, exuding vitality and always unpredictable, the breeze blows, the breeze in spring is still mixed with a trace of coolness, Qin Han has no feeling for this, but Xiu'er can't help but shiver on the side.

Yingyue Lake is said to have a sad history, and before this lake is not called Yingyue Lake, but called Pingbo Lake, it is also one of the earliest existences of Yancheng, in the former dynasty Yancheng is the 300-mile fief of the king of Pingding, and he also ordered the expansion of Yancheng, at that time Yancheng was just a small town, and Pingbo Lake was the first place where the people of Yancheng were entertained, and finally it was turned into a private garden by the king of Pingding, and now there are still vague remnants of the shadow of the year.

The origin of Yingyue Lake is also a household name in the local area, legend has it that the emperor of the year in order to stabilize the heart of this unruly general, specially assigned him a fief of three hundred miles and married his favorite princess to him, it stands to reason that both power and status have reached the peak, the king of peace enjoyed the second half of his life, but he was not willing to be lonely, and only wanted to return to the battlefield to live that iron-blooded life.

And this 300-mile fief is like a huge cage trapping him, the princess who married is the prison that monitors him in this cage, Pingbo Lake singing and dancing, people who come to have fun every day are endless, in order to relieve the sorrow in his heart, the king of Pingding also disguised himself as ordinary people to buy drunk here, the story of Cinderella and the prince began, and the woman named Mengyue gradually occupied the heart of the king of Pingding, if it wasn't for the princess who married him, maybe even divorced her heart at that time, but this is not the way to prevent the two of them from talking about me and me。

It seems that only the most tragic story can be exchanged for sympathy in people's hearts, this time is no exception, it didn't take long for the princess to discover the existence of Mengyue, jealousy will always make people become an unreasonable beast, not to mention those who grew up in the palace since childhood, and those who are accompanied by dirty things, Mengyue was tied to a big stone and thrown into the bottom of the lake, King Pingding repented, but there was nothing to be done about it, just to pay tribute to Mengyue Pingbo Lake changed Pingbo Lake to Yingyue Lake, and later it is said that in the later years of King Pingding, when Daqin was about to replace the previous dynasty, the King of Pingding personally sank the princess to the bottom of the lake in the same way, and he himself committed suicide by throwing himself into the lakeSince then, this beautiful lake has been completely abandoned, and people have always felt that it is full of vigour, and it is only now that it has a little prosperity in the past.

The willow trees on the shore, I don't know if it is with the moisture of Yingyue Lake or what, as soon as spring arrives, the spring on the branches is always a little greener than it, and Qin Han said softly: "That Mengyue has the pity of King Pingding, I don't know if it is her honor or misfortune?"

Xiu'er heard it for a while before she said slowly: "Thinking about it, she should be happy, it's much better than begging for a life in the dust." ”

Qin Han was a little strange when he heard this: "But she even lost her life, is it worth it?"

"The man who lives in heaven and earth, the reverse journey of all things, the one who passes by in time, the passer-by of a hundred generations, and the floating life is like a dream, for the joy of geometry? Mengyue has had such a process, there has been such a person who loves her like this, what a noble identity the king of Pingding is! I believe that even if she dies, she may be smiling. When Xiu'er said this, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Qin Han was silent, he may have been influenced by his previous life, in his eyes, life is irreplaceable, but he forgot that in this era, life is not so precious, reputation and faith are what people pursue in this era, just like Xiu'er, if she can have such a hard-hearted love, maybe she can be willing to die.

There are some differences in the concepts between the two, but this does not affect anything, Qin Han knows that although he attaches importance to life, he will also abandon it in some unavoidable situations, which is basically the same, but the former accounts for a relatively small proportion of life.

And Xiu'er seemed to have something in touch at this moment, and suddenly grabbed Qin Han's hand, which made him a little overwhelmed, and then he heard her say in a harmonious voice: "Is there really no possibility between us?"

Qin Han didn't know how to answer, this was like the question in his previous life that he would choose to like you or the one you liked, in his previous life, maybe he would have chosen the latter, but now he believes that he will choose the former without hesitation, but now he has too many concerns, Deng Yong's disappearance has dealt a heavy blow to his already somewhat wavering heart, and then Qin Han slowly shook his head.

Xiu'er seemed to have known that he would answer like this, and didn't say anything, just hugged him tightly, as if he could let himself have Qin Han in this way, and then when he was at a loss, he lowered his head and kissed him, and left here without looking back after a breath, although he left with his back to him, Qin Han seemed to vaguely see her quietly passing tears.
