Text 022 Hand Knife Fall, Three Beheadings
The two old wooden doors "creaked" open, and an old woman with white hair stood on the side with a lamp, and just shouted "Qingxi'er", when she suddenly caught a glimpse of another person, and hurriedly asked:
"Son, this is your ......"
"Mother. Zhang Qingxi bowed down and said softly, "This is Mr. Xiang, who is doing a big deal." He had just arrived in the town, and he was unfamiliar with the place, so he wanted to ask the child to lead the way. ”
"Oh, come in, then. Old man, go boil some hot water to make tea, there are guests at home. ”
Xiang Changsheng smiled and hugged his fists:
"I'm bothering you so late, I'm causing you trouble. ”
A few people chatted for a while, and asked Changsheng if the second elder could ask Zhang Qingxi to take him around the village to see if there were any local products in the village, and wanted to bring some back to taste fresh for his family.
Zhang Qingxi's father and mother nodded their heads in agreement without hesitation, and Xiang Changsheng has been talking and polite since he entered the door, and he has easily won the favor and trust of the second elder.
The two of them went out and walked slowly.
"Little brother, the front must be Bailiqiu. Xiang Changsheng said, "It looks about a hundred zhang high, and it stretches for a hundred miles, and there must be a lot of mountain delicacies and game, right?"
Zhang Qingxi nodded and said:
"Everything you need. ”
"Huh!? There is a family faintly under the hill, a single family, don't you worry that the fierce beasts in the mound will come down and hurt people?"
"It's also strangely tight to say. Zhang Qingxi said, "In the past, there were often wild beasts hanging down the mountain in the village, and since the Ye family had a girl, I am afraid that I haven't seen it for fifteen or six years." ”
"And such a bizarre thing?" asked Xiang Changsheng, "Ye family, could it be that the little brother said ......?"
Zhang Qingxi said:
"Mr. Xiang, that's Ye Mingzhu's home. After the funeral, Lao Ye and his wife disappeared, probably because they were afraid of seeing things and thinking about people, so they moved elsewhere. ”
Xiang Changsheng said:
"Since ancient times, there has been a thin life. Although I have never met the girl of the Ye family, I am sorry to hear you. Presumably, her brother-in-law will definitely find a feng shui treasure to bless her with a smooth and safe future life. ”
"A place chosen by a group of monks and Taoists. Zhang Qingxi raised his hand and pointed to a place on the mound, shook his head and said, "It's there, except for a few bayberry trees around the cemetery, I really don't see what's good?"
"Feng Shui is said to be broad and profound, mystical and subtle, and it is still credible. ”
Suddenly, like a gust of mountain wind blowing, Zhang Qingxi involuntarily shrunk his neck, took a few steps back, and said:
"Mr. Xiang, let's go back. After Ye Mingzhu drowned, people in the village rarely came here, and they all felt cloudy and windy in the daytime, very cold, and panicked. ”
"It's fine. Xiang Changsheng turned around and said, "I suddenly remembered something, I have a friend who does pastry trading, especially all kinds of pastries mixed with eggs, which are very delicious." However, he is extremely strict with eggs, and he does not want eggs laid by old hens that are not native. Do you have these eggs in your village?"
"Yes, who doesn't have a few old hens. Zhang Qingxi said, "There are also surrounding villages. ”
"Great. Xiang Changsheng said, "My friend's pastry business is doing very well, and there are many shops in the Nine Heavenly Cities of the Vermilion Bird Dynasty, so there is a huge demand for eggs. Let me tell you this, as long as he can see it, he will definitely buy it at a high price for a long time. Little brother, this is a great opportunity, you have to seize it, maybe you can find your mother-in-law in a year and a half, and fulfill your father's wish to hold her grandson. ”
Zhang Qingxi asked puzzled:
"Mr. Xiang, does this egg deal have anything to do with me looking for my mother-in-law?"
"Why not? It doesn't matter. As I said, you can't find a mother-in-law, not because you're stupid, but because you're poor. As long as you are willing to do this deal, I will help you match. I pay the capital, and you are responsible for buying eggs at a low price and selling them to my friends at a high price. This one in and one out, after half a year, you have to earn thousands of gold beads, to say the least. Then you pushed down the two small huts and built a small courtyard of the Sihe farmhouse, so that the small life was comfortable and comfortable, and I was afraid that there would be no big girls to come to the door?"
The more Zhang Qingxi listened, the brighter his eyes became, even if he thought about it with his toes, he knew that there was something wrong with this business.
Xiang Changsheng continued:
"Your acquaintance is fate, and I have helped with this. In this way, in order to earn more and faster, you have to take all the eggs within a radius of ten miles and eight miles, and you must not let others get a piece of the pie. By the way, I remember you said at noon that there was a person named Xu Rulin who specialized in exchanging eggs for white rice, which means that he can't eat all his eggs, understand?"
"Yes, yes, it's two big baskets every time. Zhang Qingxi said, "It's a pity that I don't know where he lives?"
"This is a big customer, a lot of gold beads, you have to think of it. ”
Zhang Qingxi picked at his head, and suddenly said in surprise:
"That's right! Master Zhang probably knows. ”
"Who?"
"My dad. Zhang Qingxi smiled, "The old man was a carpenter when he was young, and his skills were good, and he liked others to call him Master Zhang, even my own son." Called his father, he was too lazy to respond, and called the master Zhang Zhunle. It's a pity that I had a serious illness a few years ago, and my savings were spent, not to mention, my hands were shaking, and I couldn't do meticulous work anymore. I can only dig more than a dozen vegetable fields, plant some fruits and vegetables, pick them to sell every time I catch a market in the town, and often chat with Lao Ye, I should have seen him, maybe I know where I live. ”
"Then hurry back and ask, don't miss the big deal. ”
"Okay!" Zhang Qingxi quickened his pace and said, "It's a pity that I've only seen him a few times from afar, and I can't see his appearance clearly." It should be a square face, and it is estimated to be eight feet tall, and it feels like a mountain to me......"
"It's okay, I'll find out with your dad in a while. ”
Zhang Qingxi's father and mother haven't fallen asleep yet, and their son is always worried if he doesn't come home. After apologizing to Changsheng again, Zhang Qingxi hurriedly told him in detail about the egg business, and Xiang Changsheng immediately took out a gold ticket with a denomination of 500 and put it on the old wooden table, saying that this principal would be good if Zhang Qingxi earned enough gold beads, built a new house, married a bride and then returned it.
The second elder was a little hesitant at first, wondering if there was really a good thing about pie falling from the sky, but as soon as he heard the word bride, he immediately believed it. Only with a bride, and then can there be a big fat grandson, and the second elder looked forward to this and looked forward to it for almost twenty years.
Seeing that his father and mother agreed to this, Zhang Qingxi's heart blossomed, thinking that at most one year, he would no longer have to go to the old camphor tree with a bamboo mat in the middle of summer to drink wine with a group of singles.
"By the way, Master Zhang, I want to ask you something. Zhang Qingxi said, "Where does Xu Rulin, who often exchanges eggs for white rice with old leaves, live?"
"What are you asking for?"
"He has a lot of eggs. Zhang Qingxi said, "I see that you are close to Lao Ye, you may know." ”
"I don't know. ”
"How is that possible?"
"He's a monk, you know, although he's a good man, let's not get into trouble, so as not to get into trouble. ”
Zhang Qingxi said helplessly:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xiang, it seems that there is no way to find where he lives, or ......"
"There is a way. Xiang Changsheng's right hand suddenly had a dazzling narrow long knife, and with a slight wave, Zhang Qingxi's old lady, who was sitting outside Zhang Xu, shook her whole body violently, and then a head rolled to the ground, and a puddle of blood shot several feet high on her broken neck.
The father and son of the Zhang family were dumbfounded, and they didn't know what was going on for a while?
Xiang Changsheng flipped his right hand, and Sen Sen's blade was across Zhang Qingxi's throat, staring at Master Zhang, and said indifferently:
"Old thing, do you remember where Xu Rulin lives now?"
"Mother!"
Xiang Changsheng directly slammed the hilt into Zhang Qingxi's mouth, and the latter snorted, kneeling on the ground and spitting out a large mouthful of blood and a few broken teeth.
Zhang Qingxi's exclamation finally made Master Zhang wake up, looking at the old woman who fell to the ground and her hands and feet were still twitching violently, he suddenly picked up a long wooden bench, and rushed up desperately with a roar.
"One more step forward, and your son will have to die. ”
Master Zhang stopped when he heard this, looked at Zhang Qingxi, who was kneeling on the ground and vomiting blood, and shouted with tears:
"Son, what have you done?!"
"Tell me where Xu Rulin lives? ”
"I don't know!"
"Hmm-" Xiang Changsheng put the knife on the back of Zhang Qingxi's neck, "I don't know how to try it again?"
"I, I heard Lao Ye mention it once, it seems that he lives on a small island near the south of the town, but which one it is, I really don't know, I really don't know ......"
"Tell me what he looks like. ”
"Uh-square face and wide mouth, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, dragon walking tiger step, eagle eye wolf Gu ......"
"Shut up! you're talking about books, aren't you?"
"This is what Master Niu said in the town, and his stall is placed opposite Lao Ye......"
Raise the knife and fall to the immortal hand.
"Daddy!"
Xiang Changsheng put away the bloodstained golden ticket on the table, and with a backhand, he beheaded Zhang Qingxi. Immediately closed the door and walked out, looked at Bailiqiu, smiled ruthlessly, and said:
"The coffin worth 500,000 gold beads can be dug up and kept for a favor in the future. ”
Xu Rulin, who was hiding in the old camphor tree, saw Xiang Changsheng going straight to Baili Hill, and after a little thought, he knew that Zhang Qingxi must have been fooled out of Ye Mingzhu's cemetery. This doesn't matter, Xiang Changsheng is destined to be empty-handed after a busy job. Xu Rulin did not hesitate, and arrived in Zhang Qingxi's front yard with a rise and fall, his face turned cold in an instant, and he flashed into the hut, and the scene in front of him was unbearable.
Xu Rulin never expected that Xiang Changsheng, who was a master of the Legalist family, would actually slash Lao Zhang's family of three. Knowing this, he should have waited for him to be intercepted and killed directly on the way to Luofeng Village, so as not to cause such an irreparable tragic ending.
The guilt was unbearable, which made Xu Rulin furious, and swept towards Bailiqiu like a hurricane.
Halfway up the mountain, under a few bayberry trees, Xiang Changsheng was puzzled, what about the cemetery of Ye Mingzhu?
At this moment, a True Yuan power that he had never felt before struck angrily. This kind of momentum like Mount Tai seems to be above the master of the military family, Xue Jianfeng.
The comer is not good!
Xiang Changsheng held his breath and condensed, instantly condensing all the true elements of the Legalists, and holding up a shield of the Legalists that lingered in the blue. The thumb, index finger, and middle finger of the right hand hold a ruler-long gold needle, and the left thumb and index finger hold a silver silk thread. His hands are as steady as a rock, and he is making gestures to thread the needle.
Legalist masters, with a needle and a thread, can embroider the net of heaven and earth, and can also embroider splendid mountains and rivers.
Three feet above his head, there was a sword pointing at the sky, and the blue light flashed, like a god.
Xiang Changsheng exhaled and raised his voice, his momentum was like a rainbow, and he asked:
"Who's coming?!"
Under the moonlight, a little purple starlight flashed and nailed into the front of Xiang Changsheng's body, three feet into the ground. If you look closely, it is a spear burning with purple flames.
One person took his hand and stepped on the moon.
Square face and wide mouth, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, dragon and tiger steps, eagle eyes and wolf Gu.
"Xu Rulin?!"
The visitor's eyes were as cold as a dignified blade, and with a flick of his right hand, the eight spears suddenly erupted, tearing the ground hard, and a furious purple flame hurricane exploded into the sky, mixed with fine purple electricity, which would roll up to the sky for a hundred zhang in an instant.
Xiang Changsheng roared angrily, and the gold needles and silver threads instantly weaved a curtain of light like a mountain. The three-foot Qingfeng hanging above his head skyrocketed ten zhang in the blink of an eye, shining out with a sword shadow in the sky, and then merged into one in an instant, slashing down in the air, and the sword qi was vertical and horizontal.
