The people of Huang'an Town were indifferent to each other, but after seeing the people in the rivers and lakes fighting on the street, it was difficult to calm their curiosity, and they all stood not far away and watched, and gradually surrounded the five people in a circle.

The bald man was still wailing with the remaining half of his left leg, and his brother, who had tied his hair, knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to the woman who was holding the sword at him, shouting "Auntie spare my life" one by one.

Fang Yunfei received a kick from the bald man, but he still fainted on the ground and couldn't move.

The man who rescued him put his six-foot long sword back into the scabbard, the long sword was cold, and he clearly cut off half of the bald man's leg, and then looked at the sword, but there was not a drop of blood on the sword, which showed that he was so fast that he didn't even have time to attach blood to his sword.

This man was dark-faced and burly and strong, squatted down and probed Fang Yunfei's snort with his hand, and when he saw that he just fainted, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and turned to the bald man angrily and said: "Hu Han! You two lewd thieves, you usually mutilate countless girls, I have been chasing you two for a long time, I didn't expect you to dare to kill people in the street, it's really bold, fortunately, you didn't kill him with that kick, I cut off half of your leg as punishment, if you have the heart to repent and surrender like the government, I will spare your life!" If not, I'll let your head stay with your half leg!"

The bald man's name is Hu Han, and the big man with the hair is Hu Wen, these two people have no blood relationship, but the two happened to meet in the brothel one day, and they became brothers after a good conversation, because the two were greedy for women and the women in the brothel had gradually lost interest to them, and the two relied on their own kung fu to be good, so they started to pick flowers. When they first murdered a young girl of sixteen, they were thrilled and received a satisfaction that they had never experienced before from the prostitutes who were playing on the scene. Since then, the two have become more and more emboldened, either openly robbing or secretly robbing, and no less than 20 cases have been done.

But the government is mediocre and ignorant, and the two of them are strong in martial arts, so they feel that they can't manage it anymore, and they won't care about it after a long time. But pity those girls who were *, some of them were toyed with to death at that time, and some of them were toyed with, but Hu Han and Hu Wen were tired of it and threw it in the barren mountains and mountains, and the women were defiled and had no face to face their families, so they committed suicide and died in the wilderness.

What they did should have been destroyed, but the man still had mercy on him, because he didn't want the blood of these two thieves to stain his sword!

The pain of Hu Han's broken leg was unbearable, and he only cared about wailing, where could he still listen to this man's words. It was that Hu Wen, who grabbed the ground with his head, and his forehead was already purple and bloody, and he kowtowed and said: "The heroes spare their lives, the two of us are willing to turn myself in! ”

It's really as Fang Yunfei thought before, but it's useless for these two to cry their father and call their mother.

Hu Wen saw that the two still did not speak, so he crawled to the woman's feet, trying to hug her feet and beg for mercy, the woman looked disgusted, flew up and kicked Hu Wen's face, Hu Wen's mouth full of teeth flew out, and saw that the left half of his face was high and swollen, and his mouth was full of blood, and he couldn't stop kowtowing.

The onlookers all whispered again, "It's too ruthless, it's beating people like this." ”

"Who are those two people?"

"Which two are you talking about?"

"Those two unlucky ghosts!"

"They are not unlucky ghosts, I heard that these two are flower thieves, do you know that the daughter of the old Li Tou's family in the former village is Yanhong? Just turned eighteen, people stole it, and the old Li Tou cried so much! It is useless to report to the official, and the government has no problem. The people in the government were all cowards, and they all knew that they had committed the crime, but they didn't dare to send someone to arrest them. These two deserve it!"

"It turned out that these two people committed the crime! But don't you think the man is going to let them go?"

"Who said that he was going to be released, do you really not know or falsely don't know, these two people are a pair of chivalrous couples who specialize in chivalry and righteousness in the rivers and lakes! That man's name is Ming Kaiyue, and he used to be from the Ten Swords Gate. ”

"Ten Swords Gate?, that sensational martial arts thing must have been more than twenty years and almost thirty years, I really didn't expect that the children of the Ten Swords Gate are still in the world." Who's that woman?"

"The woman's name is Lin Qiyu, but few people know her life experience, and she is quite good at kung fu, and everyone says that she is the true biography of a master, and I don't know if it's true or not. ”

Lin Qiyu was disgusted with Hu Wen in front of him, and didn't want to look at him, so he put the sword into the sheath first, and said to Ming Kaiyue: "Are we going to let them go?"

Ming Kaiyue's eyes flashed and he said, "Where can these two lewd thieves be accommodated in heaven and earth? If you leave them alive, won't you and I be ashamed of the souls of the girls who were mutilated by these two beasts under the Nine Springs? It's just that this way of dying is too cheap for them!"

Lin Qiyu said: "What does Brother Yi mean?"

Ming Kaiyue said: "Hang the two of them on the high pole first, and let him be exposed to the wind and sun for ten days!"

Others couldn't help but smack their tongues when they heard it, "It's too ruthless, it's too ruthless." ”

Lin Qiyu knew that Ming Kaiyue was just scaring and scaring those two lewd thieves, so he couldn't help but be happy.

As soon as Hu Wen heard that Ming Kaiyue was so ruthless, he felt that he would always die anyway, so it was better to catch the woman in front of him first, and maybe he could use it to blackmail that man. Hu Wen's hungry wolf-like eyes showed a fierce light, he howled like a beast and pounced on Lin Qiyu, he saw Lin Qiyu unaware of it and thought that he had won it, and in an instant, Hu Wen's face suddenly froze, expressionless. Seeing that Lin Qiyu's sword had penetrated his chest again, Hu Wen felt that his hands and feet were cold, and then he could no longer see what was in front of him, and he could no longer hear Hu Han's howl of anger mixed with pain.

When Hu Han saw that his brother was dead, he didn't care about the heartache of half of his left leg, in fact, he was already numb to the pain. Hu Han stood up and threw himself at Lin Qiyu, but the moment he stood up, he seemed to see a flash of cold light, and then he seemed to see the left half of his face, only half, half of the blood, before he could confirm whether it was a hallucination, he fell, Ming Kaiyue put the sword into the sheath again, and there was still not a drop of blood on the sword.

In just a quarter of an hour, the town of Huang'an had become unpeaceful, and there were three people lying on the street, one of whom was still breathing, and the other two were dying more ugly than the other. Some of the onlookers couldn't help but gag in the street when they saw such a bloody scene for the first time, and most of them were already scared away.

Ming Kaiyue took a look and said, "Fortunately, there are no children here, otherwise you and I would have to be sad about this for a long time." ”

Lin Qiyu smiled slightly: "These two lewd thieves should have been killed a long time ago, if it wasn't for this person who happened to meet them today, we would almost lose it, and almost have another girl who was mutilated." Lin Qiyu looked at Fang Yunfei who was lying on the ground.

Ming Kaiyue said, "What about that woman?"

Lin Qiyu said: "When you think about it, it's already late, I have already placed the woman when you followed them to the street, and when she woke up, I sent her home." ”

Ming Kaiyue said with a smile: "In the end, it's still a sister's heart, I killed two lewd thieves today, and I really can't tell how happy I am!"

Lin Qiyu said: "Don't be happy first, let's see how that son is doing." ”

After that, the two took Ming Kaiyue to a nearby inn - Fengyang Inn.

Before leaving, Lin Qiyu asked, "What about these two?"

Ming Kaiyue said: "I don't believe that the government doesn't even dare to do this kind of work now." ”

The little second at the Fengyang Inn couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Ming Kaiyue and the others bring Fang Yunfei in, and he forgot to greet them. The other guests who were eating in the inn also looked at the three people silently, and Ming Kaiyue shouted, "Little Er." ”

The little two ran over and beckoned them to sit down. Ming Kaiyue said: "Little Er, you take this person to the guest room to rest first." ”

Xiao Er seemed to be a little embarrassed and was hesitating, Ming Kaiyue was slightly unhappy, and said, "Why are you so grinding?"

Xiao Er had no choice but to carry Fang Yunfei step by step to Fang Yunfei's own room with a bitter face, he put Fang Yunfei on the bed, and went downstairs without looking back.

Ming Kaiyue beckoned him over again and said, "You seem to know that person just now, who is that person?"

Xiao Er's heart was weak, thinking that he saw that he had harmed Fang Yunfei, and he couldn't help but tremble and said, "I, I..."

Lin Qiyu saw that Xiao Er's face was sad, so he said: "Don't worry, as long as you tell us the truth, we won't embarrass you, don't be afraid, just say it." ”

Xiao Er looked at Lin Qiyu, then at Ming Kaiyue, and said: "This person, this person is a son of a broad family, his surname is Fang, and his name is Fang Yunfei." His family runs a bank. Yesterday I stayed with a few people in my store. ”

Ming Kaiyue lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "You said that his family is a money bank, then his father is the number one giant businessman in the south of the Yangtze River, the 'Smiling God of Wealth' Fang Fugui?"

Xiao Er said: "This Xiao Er is not particularly clear, but seeing that this Fang Gongzi is very arrogant, he paid for the houses of his friends, and he didn't even frown when he rewarded the small money, so he must not be an ordinary rich son." ”

Ming Kaiyue said: "Well, I know, you go down first." Wait, how many friends did you say he had invited, what kind of friends were they?"

Xiao Er replied: "I don't know this little one, this Fang Gongzi brought three friends, one is five big and three thick, and the other two younger ones are dressed in white clothes and look very handsome, and the other older one looks very featureless, but I think he is very respectful to the person in white clothes, and it is estimated that he is the person in white clothes." ”

Ming Kaiyue nodded, and Xiao Er said, "If the guest officer wants to give something back, just give orders." Ming Kaiyue ordered a few side dishes, and Xiao Er left.

After Lin Qiyu left, he asked Ming Kaiyue, "Who is the smiling God of Wealth you are talking about?"

Ming Kaiyue took a sip of the tea in the cup and said, "Fang Fugui, the smiling God of Wealth, is not only a leader in the business world, but he also eats very well in the rivers and lakes. I heard that he also has a close relationship with Hong Quanchang of the Wanjun Gang, and he often contributes money and is not stingy. Every time I go to a place on the rivers and lakes, I will pay for some local poor people to give a share, so now people in many places do not worship the real God of Wealth, but worship this 'Smiling God of Wealth'. ”

Lin Qiyu was surprised: "There are still such characters? Don't they all say that the richer people are, the more stingy they are? He is so generous, so it seems that he is still a good person." ”

Seeing that Ming Kaiyue shook his head with a smile, Lin Qiyu asked puzzledly, "Is such a person not a good person?"

Ming Kaiyue said: "When a person is extremely rich, he will definitely not mind money, but that person will inevitably transfer his ambition to another thing. ”

Lin Qiyu said: "What's the matter?"

There was another commotion outside the door, and a large group of officers and soldiers gathered at the entrance of the Fengyang Inn, attracting many pedestrians and guests. There was a leader on a horse and wearing an official uniform, and he sent a few people to dispose of the two corpses, and he heard him shouting to the street: "In broad daylight, there are thieves who commit murder in the street, my official is honest, and he ordered the arrest of the perpetrator, and the first informant will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!"

As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion at the door, and everyone was worried about the thousand taels of silver, but no one went to complain.

Many guests in the Fengyang Inn knew that the two murderers were sitting in front of them, and they wanted to run out to denounce them several times, but they didn't dare to see Ming Kaiyue's face again.

Ming Kaiyue was very calm, calmer than those passers-by who had nothing to do with him, and said to Lin Qiyu casually: "It's status." ”

Lin Qiyu forgot what she just said, she was not like Ming Kaiyue, she listened very attentively to whether there would be any informants outside, in fact, until those officers and soldiers left in a pretended manner, there was still no one to come forward to inform. Lin Qiyu said: "What?"

Ming Kaiyue smiled slightly: "The smiling God of Wealth, he only cares about the status of the rivers and lakes now." ”

Lin Qiyu immediately returned to the topic just now, and said, "Isn't his status high enough now? Just like you just said, aren't many people beginning to worship him as a god?"

Ming Kaiyue replied: "The common people, especially the poor people, are just tools to him, and they are far from the rivers and lakes in his eyes. What he wants is a position that is beyond the reach of the masters on the rivers and lakes. ”

Lin Qiyu opened his mouth in surprise and said, "You mean that he is using those poor people to elevate his identity, so he doesn't sound like a good person." But what is the status that makes all the masters unattainable?"

Ming Kaiyue said: "I don't know either, because I can't even look at that status, I don't care about it." ”

Lin Qiyu laughed and said: "You are different from others, I know this, you only care about how many people you can save." ”

Ming Kaiyue smiled: "When it comes to saving people, you seem to have forgotten one thing. ”

Lin Qiyu immediately thought that she hadn't sent the woman who was insulted by Hu Han and Hu Wen back to her home, so she hurriedly said: "You should have reminded me earlier, stay here and wait for me to come back." With that, she ran out like a fly, and she didn't even hear Ming Kaiyue say "yes". Ming Kaiyue looked at her back, took a sip of tea, asked Xiao Erfang Yunfei which room he was in, and went upstairs.

At this time, several people were at the table, and there was a meal carefully arranged by the boss on the table, which was not a feast, but it was much more fragrant than ordinary meals. But the people in front of the table just had no appetite, which made the store feel a lot of blows, for this table, he also specially invited a few famous chefs, and personally supervised them.

In front of the table sat Hong Hanming, Qin Ping, Feng Yu, Qi Ying'er and the pale Sun Qiao'er. The store has already sent someone to take care of Li Yuanchen, but he is becoming more and more toxic, and he can't even babble at the moment. The three Lang Zhong invited by Feng Yu saw that there was no way to detoxify this poison, so they only prescribed some irrelevant medicines to slow down the poison of the purple mist in Li Yuanchen and make him no longer so painful.

After hearing Qi Ying'er's words relayed to Sun Qiao'er, everyone was silent, silently looking at the table of dishes, no one wanted to move the chopsticks, and the shopkeeper kept holding his cheeks behind the counter to observe a few people and staring blankly at the time of the meal.

Someone finally broke the silence, and Qin Ping said, "Then did he leave this mask to let us stop?"

Sun Qiao'er didn't speak, because her face was still haggard. Qi Ying'er nodded for her.

As soon as Qin Ping wanted to say something, Hong Hanming stopped him and said, "Brother Qin, don't worry, even if someone holds a knife around my neck, I will rescue Third Brother Tie," he glanced at Qi Ying'er, "There are also the three masters of Jingzhuang." Hong Hanming rarely used such exaggerated words to make assurances, and when he did this, it showed that he was now in a helpless state, and the knife around his neck was actually just giving him his own confidence, so that he was so weak that he couldn't stop Qin Ping's words when he said this.

Feng Yu naturally understood how tricky this matter was, that ghost-faced man was far from something that they could afford to provoke, was there really no way to find it? Feng Yu almost couldn't help biting his nails, he would only do this when he was in a hurry, and he was the only one who knew that he had this habit.

Qi Ying'er hugged Sun Qiao'er, and when his face was flat, he didn't look anxious at all, just because he knew that no matter how powerful the ghost-faced man was, he would have to save Jingyun and the others, in this case, why worry about what hadn't happened yet? Even if the ghost-faced man really wanted to kill him, but he still had the sword in his hand, that sword was hope.

Just when Qin Ping found that Fang Yunfei was missing, Qi Ying'er also happened to walk into Sun Qiao'er's guest room.

Sun Qiao'er had already woken up, she was sitting alone on the bed, looking so helpless and lonely, Qi Ying'er walked over and loved her and sat on the bed, and said, "I'm sorry, I wasn't there when you woke up." ”

Sun Qiao'er smiled, her smile looked a little poignant on this weak face, Sun Qiao'er said: "It's good that you're not here, I don't want you to see me like a madman." ”

Sun Qiao'er leaned lightly on Qi Ying'er's shoulder, Qi Ying'er didn't want to kick the ghost mask that made her faint at the beginning, just gently hugged her fragrant shoulder and didn't say a word.

Sun Qiaoer has the ability to understand the hearts of men, in fact, women all over the world have this ability. Sun Qiao'er said softly: "Where is that ghost mask?"

Qi Ying'er didn't speak for a while, just gently rubbed her arm back and forth, Sun Qiao'er said: "Even if I don't see that thing, I can tell all the details of it, it is a bad thing, everyone who goes against his will will die, it is advice." ”

Qi Ying'er was a little dizzy for a while, and he was trying to distinguish between "he" or "it" in Sun Qiao'er's mouth, referring to the ghost mask or the ghost face.

Sun Qiao'er slowly left his shoulder, sat up, and then slowly walked to the table, poured himself a cup of fragrant tea, the tea was warm, Sun Qiao'er took a small sip, put it aside, and let it cool.

This is the second time Qi Ying'er has heard Sun Qiao'er talk about his memories, and he seems to have discovered Sun Qiao'er's habit of trying to stay away from the object he wants to talk about when she recalls.

Sun Qiao'er said: "I've seen him, that ghost-faced man, that's what you call him, I heard it when I was outside the door." I've also seen that token of his, the ghost mask, who has appeared in my nightmares almost every night since I was eight years old. At that time, my mother could no longer hold me by my side and coax me. ”
