Chapter 8: The Moon Was There (4)

Volume 14 Chapter 8 The Moon Was There at That Time (4)

The clouds gradually dispersed, the red sun rose, when the sparkling Dongting Lake did not cover the ground, Yueyang Lou was already full of people, after the curfew was lifted, soon some people found out that those were the point of the acupoint unconscious patrol and the husband, in Yueyang ground, who dared to openly attack the officers and soldiers, thinking of the two armies facing each other in the Chibi area, soon some people suspected that it was the Tang family, but how can there be such an arrogant spy in this world, and since he has already moved, there is no need for his subordinates to show mercy.

A wave is not flat, a wave is rising, the shopkeeper of Yueyang Building opened the door, and saw a place of horizontal and vertical guys, frightened and hurriedly went upstairs and downstairs to check everywhere, the result is to cry without tears, the guqin is just that, although precious, it is not impossible to find a substitute, the lack of eleven jars of osmanthus brewing in the cellar is the most important, and the table on the top floor and the ingredients that were taken away from the kitchen are even more confusing to the second monk, that is, by the robbers, what to do with the ingredients, and to cook in person, make a few good dishes with good color and fragrance, is it possible to come to steal things The thief is still a cookAlthough there is such an idea, but no one dares to think about a person who has really worked as a cook here, that is the dignified Demon Emperor, even the dignitaries like the prince of Yue Guo dare to kill the fierce god and evil, if such a character really comes to Yueyang, it will be a bloody storm, rather than this, it is better to pretend to be deaf and dumb, so in the end, Yueyang did not report the matter to the official, and no one was killed or injured anyway.

Of course, such a thing cannot be hidden. Some rumors inevitably leaked into the market, some of them were dumbfounded, some of them scoffed, some of them added fuel and vinegar, but intentionally or unintentionally, in front of those soldiers sent by the county government, no one mentioned it, although most of the people in the world regarded the Demon Emperor Sword as a flood beast, even if it was not a group of attackers. It is also to worship ghosts and gods and stay away, but in the eyes of these people near Yueyang Tower, these two people are just a pair of children next door who are used to seeing each other, and they want to be at the beginning. They often frolic at the lake downstairs. It is precisely because of this wonderful reason that while almost all the people near Yueyang Tower already know the truth of the matter, Duan Yue, the general of Jingnan, is still going out to hunt down Jiangning's spies, after all, Wang's foundation in Yueyang is too shallow after all. It has not yet won the hearts of the people.

On the shore of Dongting Lake, Yueyang Tower is naturally a place where dignitaries and nobles and celebrities linger, but for ordinary tourists and travelers. A cottage wine shop along the lake is a good place for drinking and recreation, as for the fishermen and coolies waiting for it. You can only choose an open-air noodle stall to fill your belly. It was midday. On a noodle stall not far from Yueyang Tower. A few fishermen finished selling the fresh fish and shrimp they had brought in the morning, and they were laughing together. The hot noodle soup is a bowl of soju for a few pennies, and I eat it happily.

At this moment, from the east along the shore came a majestic man like an iron tower, the weather in November, although it was not a cold winter wax moon, but it was also cold, the strong man was scattered clothes, the muscles on his chest were like a mound block, and there were two locks of black hair, one by one like a steel needle, a pair of boots under his feet, which had already been worn to expose his toes, and on his shoulders he carried a blade wrapped in cloth, which was more than four feet long, and he did not know whether it was a knife or a sword, and he carried a package on his back, which was stuffed with bulging pockets, and he looked like a traveler from afar. Now the world is chaotic, but anyone who will point self-defense skills, all carry knives and swords, so dressed up these fishermen have long been commonplace, do not feel rare at all, but this big man looks strong, bright eyes, steady steps, every move with an indestructible majestic momentum, at first glance is not an ordinary person, if it is intercepted by the secret spies of the soldiers on both sides, even if it is not treated as a spy, it will be strictly investigated, in such a tense situation, this person is still at ease, if there is no reliance, there is no other possibility. Several fishermen were privately speculating that the big man had already seen the noodle stall, and with a covetous look in his eyes, he strode up to the front and shouted: "Give Lao Tzu a bowl of mutton noodles, ask for a big bowl, and then a pot of soju." ”

The owner of the noodle stall was a little old man, who was so frightened by the thunderous roar of the big man that he almost lost the rolling pin in his hand, and he shivered before he woke up, and hurriedly made a bowl of noodles under the noodles, and after a while, he served a bowl of thin noodles, cut a large piece of mutton, add a pinch of chopped green onions, drip a few drops of sesame oil, pour vinegar, fragrant, mouth-watering, or because he was shocked by the roar of the big man, this bowl of noodles is full of weight, full of tips to be exposed, and the fishermen who watched it secretly gritted their teeth. The big man didn't care about it, snoring, and after a while, the noodle bowl bottomed out, and then grabbed the wine jug and drank half a pot of soju in one go, but his face remained unchanged at all, and the fishermen secretly smacked their lips when they saw it. After eating and drinking, the big man didn't seem to be satisfied, touched his still shriveled stomach, took out dozens of copper coins from his waist and threw them on the table, and said, "Boss, is another bowl of noodles and a pot of wine enough?"

The owner of the noodle stall is a well-behaved person, and when he saw this posture, he guessed that the big man was shy, but he was silent, reached out and took away the copper coin, and served a bowl of mutton noodles and a pot of soju, the big man divided the account by two, but he still felt that his stomach was empty, but he saw that the little old man smiled and said nothing, so he had to stand up and walk into the crowd unwillingly.

After eating this meal, this big man is already empty, and he doesn't know where the next meal is

, I had to walk along the lake, and accidentally saw a pavilion, which I walked into the pavilion and looked at the lake, which seemed to be leisurely, but in fact, my mind was full of thinking about whether to return to my old business and grab some silver flowers.

After several days of wind and snow, the sun is fine today, although the wind on the lake is slightly stronger, but it is not biting, under the warm sunshine, this big man gradually gave birth to tiredness, he has practiced to the realm of cold and heat, regardless of the cold and warm weather, simply put the package under his head, and fell asleep in this pavilion. His appearance is naturally eye-catching, but although the soldiers who patrolled saw him, they all felt that if he was a spy, he would definitely not be so unsuspecting, and this man was burly, and he was not easy to provoke at first glance, so he just secretly paid attention to it, and did not come to interrogate, just like that, the big man slept until dusk. I was awakened by a chill.

Before he opened his eyes, the big man had already jumped up with a carp, and the wrapped heavy sword was even more in his hand, ready to go, and looked fixedly, only to see a handsome young man in blue standing in front of him, and the sword qi on Zhou's body was faint, but it turned out that what woke up the big man was not the cold air between heaven and earth, but the awe-inspiring killing machine.

See the young man's face clearly. The big man couldn't help but smile, and even put away the heavy sword, and raised his voice: "Who is so bold in my Dao, it turns out that he is the young head of the Yueyang Sword Sect." Lei Jianyun, why did you play a majestic role in front of Lao Tzu, didn't you bring ten or eight guards this time, and you wanted to seek revenge on Lao Tzu?"

Lei Jianyun said coldly: "What are you angry about." I was only sixteen years old at the time, and I hadn't learned the swordsmanship yet, and you were already a famous land and water black dragon, so what was so strange about defeating me. If you have the ability, you can try it now, and the master of this young sect will not break your body into thousands of pieces, even if I am not proficient. Hum. If I hadn't taken pity on you, the bereaved dog. I've long since brought all the guards. Kill your famous water coward on the spot, you must know that it is in Baling County Mansion. You have seven or eight bloody cases in your body, and if you are sent to the government, I am afraid that the execution will be light, even if it is Ling Chi, it may not be impossible. However, your dignified skeleton guild master has been reduced to the point of being penniless and sleeping in the open air, if you let your friends know about it in black and white, I am afraid that you will laugh off your big teeth!"

Boss Chu's face was a little stunned when he heard this, since he was left behind by Yang Ning and Qingping that day, he went all the way west, looking for traces of the two, because the river patrol was strict, and he was not as careless as Yang Ning, so he had to chase on foot, thousands of miles away, not only the shoes and socks were worn out, but even the coiling was exhausted. Speaking of which, the package that Yang Ning threw to him that day contained hundreds of taels of gold and silver, which was originally enough for him to use, but he was used to being lavish, and before he crossed Jiangxia, there were only twenty or thirty taels of silver left, in order to reduce trouble, he did not dare to rob large households, ordinary merchants and ordinary people, and he did not want to cause harm, so he had to cut back on food and clothing, Rao is so, after arriving in Yueyang, he is already penniless. His eyes turned around Lei Jianyun a few times, and he laughed and said: "Lao Tzu really has no money, but didn't I meet you, boy, when Lao Tzu spared your life, you haven't repaid the favor, how about it, take out a few thousand or a few hundred taels, it's not difficult for you, right?"

Lei Jianyun's nose was almost crooked when he heard this, ten years ago, he was young and vigorous, and he was proud of his outstanding swordsmanship, so he was going to roam the rivers and lakes alone, and he didn't think that he had been away from home for a few days, and he met Boss Chu robbing merchant ships. Two people have a swordsmanship at the beginning of their careers, their internal strength is shallow, and their moves are ordinary, and their magic skills have not been completed, but they are infinitely powerful, reinforced and iron-clad, and the two people can be described as half a catty and eight taels, but Lei Jianyun lacked experience after all, and was kicked into the river by Boss Chu, and finally Boss Chu didn't want to kill them all, so he robbed the merchant ship and left. Lei Jianyun went through this great shame, returned home and concentrated on hard practice, which led to today's achievements, and later he went back and forth several times to find Chu Boss to take revenge, but his martial arts advanced by leaps and bounds, Chu Boss's "Great Sumeru King Kong Force" It has gradually succeeded, the two of them have fought several times, although they have won and lost each other, but Boss Chu has thick skin and thick meat, Lei Jianyun is cunning and wise, even if he loses, he will not let the other party take any advantage, but the result is not to fight or make a deal, and there is a kind of obscure friendship, of course, no one knows this at all, the rivers and lakes only know that the Yueyang Sword Sect and the skeleton will have several conflicts, a merchant walks the ship, and the other barrage the river and robs the ship, it is natural to have a holiday, but the strength of both sides is not weak, so there are no big casualties in several conflicts, and I don't know that this is just the result of the open and secret battle between the leaders of the two sides。 In fact, this is also a coincidence, although Lei Jianyun is insidious, he was still young when he met Boss Chu, and he didn't value face as much as he does now, and he hated Boss Chu not so much as he hated it, but rather said that he was a young man who was competitive and ambitious, and Boss Chu didn't know Lei Jianyun's identity at the beginning, just when he was a reckless teenager, there was no prejudice, if they met a few years late, Lei Jianyun would definitely not let go of the enemy who made him suffer such humiliation, and Boss Chu would not show mercy to a famous son, I am afraid that the only thing that may be you die and die, not just the current cynicism。

However, Lei Jianyun was not in the mood to talk to Boss Chu today, glared at Boss Chu, threw the silver bag around his waist casually, and said coldly: "I originally heard that."

The qi is good, not only climbed the high branches of the Demon Emperor, but even the fairy of the Green Lake. How did you get to this point today?"

Boss Chu did not show weakness, took the silver bag in his hand, but sneered in his mouth: "How good is your kid, cooperating secretly with Zijing Gongzi in Jinling, it was originally smooth sailing, but he just interfered in Miss Qingping's affairs, but he didn't even dare to pull out the sword in the new pavilion, your courage is getting smaller and smaller, Lao Tzu feels ashamed of you when he hears it?"

Lei Jianyun said angrily: "What do you know about this reckless man. If it weren't for the fact that I knew how to pursue the advantages and avoid the disadvantages, I was afraid that the bones would be buried in the new pavilion, and only Duan Yue's stupidity would be so short-sighted. Hmph, although Lei is now under the command of Wang, the foundation of my Yueyang Sword Sect for more than a hundred years can not be compared to a grass-headed king. If you want me to fight with the Demon Emperor for no reason, I'm not an idiot. Okay, get the money out of here, if someone knows you're here. I can't keep you, if you don't have a place to go, I still have some affection for the Junshan Gang. At least it gives you a place to stay. ”

Boss Chu's heart warmed slightly when he heard this. But he shook his head and said, "Don't worry, you kid." Lao Tzu is killing people and setting fires, and he will not do anything in such a ghost place where there are many masters. I'm going to Gangneung to find someone, so I'll leave tonight. ”

Lei Jianyun's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "I heard that you were selected by the Demon Emperor as the object of the trial, I thought I could see the ghost appearance of you who can't survive and die, I can't imagine that others can't avoid it, but you just want to find the door, what, do you want to go to Jiangling to find the Demon Emperor Jianjue?"

Boss Chu's heart froze, and he said: "Lei boy, there are not many people in this world who know that Prince Zijing and Miss Qingping are going to the Jiangling Cemetery, how do you know?"

Lei Jianyun sneered: " This kind of thing, I'm afraid that the whole Yueyang City knows, just an hour ago, someone went to the county government to ask to see the king, saying that the Demon Emperor and Miss Qingping returned to Dongting from Jiangling, and asked the king to send someone to find the two of them, if you want to find someone in the lake, those soldiers in the county government are probably not as good as our Yueyang Sword Sect and Junshan Gang, so the king sent a Jun order, please ask us to help, otherwise how do you think I will find out that you are coming to Yueyang, although the master of this young sect is not a good day, but he is too lazy to care about you people in and out, if you are not afraid of death, although you continue to stay in Yueyang, I am afraid that His Royal Highness can tolerate you, and the Demon Emperor may not let you goDo you know what 'Alchemy Fire' is?"

Boss Chu didn't hear it, and asked hurriedly, "Lei boy, are you sure they have arrived in Dongting?

Lei Jianyun shook his head helplessly and said: "How do I know if it's true or not, but I just got the news, Yueyang Lou came to the immortals last night, and the people who passed by here were all pointed, and some people nearby faintly heard the sound of the piano coming from upstairs, and also saw *** and the figure, it is said that this morning the owner found that he had lost a guqin and more than a dozen jars of good wine, but left a pair of priceless pearls." ”

Boss Chu was puzzled, and Lei Jianyun sneered when he saw this: " I don't believe in any ghosts and gods, this is obviously a world master passing by, this Yueyang Tower is the place where the Demon Emperor was born, if they really go back to Dongting, it is very likely to visit Yueyang Tower, so most of the words of Ping Fairy are true, but Dongting Lake is eight hundred miles away, I don't know how many islands and mountains and forests can be accommodated, how easy it is to find two people to talk about, I haven't reported this matter yet, if you can't find anyone in the end, you can also use the news to prevaricate the past, so as not to eat the king's hanging. ”

Although Boss Chu is either fighting or sneering at Lei Jianyun every time he meets, he is quite clear about his temperament, no matter how good this person is at forbearance on the surface, cunning and insidious, but in his bones he is still the proud young man whose heart is higher than the sky, and his mind turned, and he deliberately sneered: " You kid is the best at yang and yin, but don't say that your Yueyang Sword Sect is not as powerful as the Junshan Gang, that is, God gives you the opportunity to let you find Zijing Gongzi, I am afraid that you do not have the blessing to receive your master's reward, who does not know that the Demon Emperor's martial arts are unparalleled in the world, and he kills people like hemp, your skills, in the eyes of Gongzi, I am afraid that it is inferior to ants, maybe blow a breath, and I can scrape you into the lake. ”

After Wang Wu Heng got the message from Liao Shuiqingdi, he ordered to find the whereabouts of Yang Ning and Qingping, but in order to hide people's eyes and ears, he did not explain the purpose, Lei Jianyun could not get close to the power core of the domain, and did not know that Wu Heng entrusted Wu Cheng to reconcile with Yang Ning, but the king of the Dao was dissatisfied with Duan Yue's injury, and he had the intention to embarrass the demon emperor, he was already afraid of Yang Ning, and naturally did not want to spend effort to find someone, if he couldn't find it, it was okay, what if he found the upper body of the fire? It's just that he knows these thoughts, but he was exposed by an opponent like Boss Chu, Rao is he is very thick-skinned, and he also feels red-faced, where can he tolerate it, and he doesn't speak, he raised his hand and stabbed at Boss Chu, a wisp of sword light was as fast as lightning, stabbing at Boss Chu's chest, he had fought with Boss Chu many times, knowing that this person was made of steel and iron bones, and when he hit a sword in idleness, it was like tickling, and there was no power at all, so this sword was straight to the point, leaving no chance for the opponent.
