For three years, nothing seems to have changed, Liuren Lane is still a place where famous prostitutes are concentrated, the south wall is still the tavern with the most wine in the city, and even the Oiran of the Qinglou industry is still Xiao Fengchai, who can't be beaten, and now people are speculating and analyzing the age of this woman, recalling how many years she has been famous.

Everything seems to have changed, the city used to be a hunting ground for the young killer, but now he has become a prey to hide, not even daring to show his true face, and the few traces he once left have almost all been erased.

Kunshe is still there, and the owner has become the ninth young master Shangguan Fei, he is still hiding in Beicheng all the year round, remote control of this swordsman organization on the periphery of Jinpeng Castle, Meng Shi became more and more wealthy, and bought the Guiyuan peach forest in the south of Wangcheng Lane, surrounded by high walls, and idlers are not allowed to enter.

Never-ending vendettas are still commonplace in Nancheng, and the big and small hoods have disappeared and emerged one after another, and there are few people who Gu Shenwei recognizes.

The impact of the War in the Western Frontier was limited to after-dinner chat, and "that killer" has now become a special noun, referring to Yang Huan, the dragon king of the Great Snow Mountain, just like "that woman" represents the eight young grandmothers in the stone castle.

"That killer is all on the help of the Demon Bird, without the Demon Bird, what is he? A bandit leader, I bet the Snow Bandit will not last until the end of the year. ”

As soon as Gu Shenwei walked into the tavern, he heard someone say this, and there was only agreement and no refutation around.

"Don't say it so easily, that killer used to be good at intrigues, think about it, the deaths of Dubu Wang's sons are all related to him, there are so many killers in the stone castle, they haven't caught his figure for several years, but let him hit the door, that killer is also a capable person. The guests at the other table defended the dragon king, but no one agreed.

The shopkeeper Lu, who was missing a finger, looked at the guests indifferently, it was these drunkards who had always supported the prosperity of the tavern, but he was a little tired now, compared to the more profitable business, selling wine, even the most expensive and best wine, seemed to be a waste of time.

But it's also a good cover.

As soon as the guest in the robe came in, the shopkeeper noticed him and discovered two important facts: first, there was a weapon hidden in the robe, which the gatekeeper did not notice, and second, this stranger had a certain temperament that he was familiar with.

The robed guest's face was slightly dark, the corners of his eyes sinisterly slanted downward, and he had a thick beard that people from the Western Regions often had, as if he had just come out of the desert, and he had not yet chosen a place to rest, and he went straight to the tavern.

"A glass of wine. "A guest who seems impatient only needs such a small thing.

The guy was disappointed, but the shopkeeper Lu was shocked, the pen in his hand almost fell on the table, and he made a look, the guy understood, his attitude changed to enthusiasm again, and he carefully invited the guests to sit in the private room inside.

Shopkeeper Lu stood vigilantly at the door of the private room, over the years, he was one of the very few residents of Biyu City who had indirect dealings with the killer Yang Huan, but this was purely for profit, and he was afraid of this killer in his heart.

Three years ago, it was he who helped Xu Xiaoyi and Chu Nanping leave Biyu City, and Gu Shenwei's more than one million taels of silver were also transferred to Shule Country through his hands, during which the profits were huge, and the commission was as high as 20%, if this money was discovered by Jinpeng Castle, he would not get a piece of silver.

It was through this business that Shopkeeper Lu saw a new way to get rich: secretly helping those who wanted to be unwilling to transfer money, and it just so happened that there were many such people in Biyu City.

The risk of a high-profit business is naturally high, and those who want to secretly transfer their property are not very friendly with Jinpeng Castle, and the shopkeeper Lu has to always be on guard against the killer coming to the door.

"You shouldn't have come to Southside at this time. "I haven't seen him for three years, Shopkeeper Lu is a little unsure of what attitude he should put on, although the other party is the Dragon King of the Great Snow Mountain, but in Biyu City, he is just a fugitive who has not seen the light, and he has gone beyond the level of the ordinary cover, and the power in his hands is not what it used to be.

The killer lifted open the placket of his robe, revealing a sword hidden by his legs.

The severed finger of the shopkeeper Lu felt a faint pain, and he immediately changed his attitude and showed a tacit smile, "But with me, you are safe." ”

"I believe it. Gu Shenwei believed that it was not Shopkeeper Lu, nor the sword and sword, but Xu Xiaoyi, who was far away in Shule City, and he was one of the most important business partners of Shopkeeper Lu.

"I'm going to call you 'Dragon King' now, right?" asked Shopkeeper Lu tentatively.

"Yes. ”

The killer is serious, Shopkeeper Lu thought, and said, "What do you have to tell the Dragon King to come to me?"

"I'm here to make peace with Jinpeng Castle. ”

This sentence is too abrupt and unbelievable, the shopkeeper Lu has been crawling for many years, thinking that he is an old fox, but he didn't understand the other party's meaning for a while, "Negotiate peace? You mean...... Pretend to negotiate peace and then assassinate ......?"

"There was no assassination, just peace. ”

Shopkeeper Lu was stunned, his brows tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened, and repeated several times, "Is it really peace?"

Gu Shenwei nodded.

"This ...... Hey...... That's a good thing, but I can't help, I can't speak in the stone castle. Shopkeeper Lu finally reacted, and first said the bad words in his head.

"I don't need you to talk to Jinpeng Castle. Do you like war?"

"I, to be honest, of course I don't, it's not just me, most businessmen don't like war, and when there is a war, business suffers, and only a few people benefit. ”

"Therefore, the merchants of the city should support the peace. ”

Shopkeeper Lu suddenly realized, "Here's the thing, whether the businessmen like it or not, they won't say it publicly, who wants to offend Shibao?"

"You don't need to make it public, soon, someone will ask about everyone's attitude, you just need to tell the truth, but I hope that the merchants in the city can be prepared in advance, and will not be ignorant and taken advantage of by others. ”

It is the Dragon King who wants to use the merchants of Biyu City, and the shopkeeper Lu knows this, everything is business, and this one is no exception, so he showed a look of embarrassment, "This thing is easy to say, but it is a bit risky to do, and there are many eyeliners in Shibao......"

"You're going to get paid, it's about the risk. ”

The two did not discuss the specific price, Shopkeeper Lu had done business with the Dragon King many times through Xu Xiaoyi, and knew that he would not suffer a loss, "Merchants from all walks of life in Biyu City will be firm supporters of peace." ”

"I heard that there is a new 'killing stop meeting' in the city?" Gu Shen asked about another goal by the way in order to complete the main task of this trip.

"Yes, but I'm afraid I can't count on it. ”

"How?"

"It's a deceptive thing, it's like...... Belch...... The swordsman's guild, yes, it's a guild, under the banner of 'stop killing', collects membership fees from the swordsmen, and what it does is nothing more than collect the corpses afterwards, think about it, if the 'stop killing' becomes a reality, what do the swordsmen live on?"

Regarding the "Stop Killing Meeting", Gu Shenwei got a negative impression from the shopkeeper Lu, and that night, he went to visit another person to learn more about this organization.

Zhao Tong's name is not known to many people, he started from "Zhao Xiaosi", changed to "fourth brother" in his twenties, promoted to "fourth uncle" at the age of thirty, and did not survive until he was fifty years old to "fourth master", since then he has a certain appeal among the swordsmen, no longer need to wield a knife to sell his life, he has no intention of obtaining the title of "four ancestors", so he is very satisfied with his current life.

Zhao Siye has always been very wary of strange guests, and it was not until this person took out the handwritten letter of Boss Tuo that he warmly invited the guests into the house for a secret talk.

"I'm an old bone, it's rare that Boss Tuo still thinks about it, what is the name of this brother?" The guest is not good-looking, but Zhao Siye has rich experience, but he concludes that this person has an extraordinary background.

Gu Shenwei revealed his sword again, "Fourth Master doesn't remember the killer who came here three years ago?"

Three years ago, Gu Shenwei was still running around to establish a team of swordsmen, and visited almost all the old swordsmen in the city, so he met Zhao Siye, who was reluctant to come forward and declined the invitation, but introduced a few good swordsmen.

Zhao Siye's face changed suddenly, "Wait." "Then go out of the room, close the courtyard door, and close the door tightly when you come back," the dragon king came, and the little old man was very honored. ”

Zhao Siye wanted to kneel, Gu Shenwei hurriedly helped him up, with the guarantee of Tuo Nengya, the credibility of the old swordsman was higher than that of the shopkeeper Lu.

Gu Shenwei wanted to know the reaction of the swordsmen to the war, Zhao Siye pondered for a while, "To tell the truth, as long as the stone castle is willing to pay a lot of money, the young swordsmen are still willing to participate in the war, after all, you have to support your family, with all due respect, outside the Dragon King over the years, not many prestige has passed back to Biyu City." ”

The old swordsman said it more tactfully, Gu Shenwei's influence in Biyu City was not as good as the red-topped Dapeng that he only saw occasionally.

Regarding the "Stop Killing Meeting", Zhao Siye's statement is diametrically opposed to that of the shopkeeper Lu, "The 'Stop Killing Society' is like the home of the swordsmen, even I paid a fee to join the club, although the 'Stop Killing' is not realistic, but it does save a lot of people, so that those orphans and widows will not live on the streets and suffer from starvation." The dragon king wants to get the swordsmen to support the peace, and it is absolutely impossible to find the 'stop killing meeting'. ”

There is a reason why Gu Shenwei did not contact the "Stop Killing Society" in the first place, the initiators of the "Stop Killing Society" are several monks of the Four Noble Truths, including Master Lianhua, who he is familiar with, but they don't care about anything, and all the affairs of the meeting are in the hands of the proud building in Wangcheng Lane.

Why did the monk get involved with the strange people in the proud building, Gu Shenwei couldn't understand this, since he heard the rumors of the "Stop Killing Meeting" a year ago, he was thinking about it, and he always felt that there was an unknown secret hidden in it.

In addition, Gu Shenwei once killed a Peng Xianren, and he didn't trust the Peng Xianren who took over, so he was very cautious to let Chu Nanping go to the Deyi Building to contact, and he didn't show up.

It was getting late, and Gu Shenwei made his way through the bustling crowd alone to his residence on the edge of the city, this was his third day back in Biyu City, and he went out for the first time, and found himself being followed when he passed a street full of casinos and pubs.
