Now it has entered the cold winter, the city that never sleeps has been snowing heavily, the old people describe the snow generally with goose feathers, probably because the snow is like goose feathers from afar, in such a harsh winter, in the past, the happiest for the people in the city that never sleeps is to eat a hot pot in the hot pot restaurant, but the nearest city that never sleeps seems to be not keen on eating hot pot.

Youming's shop is still so cold, only the sound of his erhu comes out faintly, the snow at the door is very thick, it seems that the owner has not cleaned it, but a shop opposite Youming is full of people, forming a strong contrast.

The shop opposite is a merciful roast rabbit shop, even if the weather is very cold now, there is a long queue at the door of his shop, for the people who never sleep now, in such a weather, the most comfortable thing is to drink the wine of the Fang family's wine recipe to accompany this family's roast rabbit.

The north wind is howling, the wind carries the fragrance of roast rabbits, as if there is a little more warmth in the wind, it is particular to sell roast rabbits mercilessly, only sell sixty a day, one more is not sold, and one less will never close the door, but his rabbits will never be sold less, and people will come to the door early in the morning to wait.

Today, I sold out sixty rabbits early, but there were still a lot of people in line, these people only sighed, and then dispersed with reluctance, but one person was still standing at the door of the store.

Chen Aman is really reluctant to go, he feels uncomfortable without eating a rabbit every day, and he has no energy to do things, and he is really unlucky, there is no rabbit when it is his turn, and a little bit is always worse than two points of discomfort.

"Don't you still have a rabbit there?" said Chen Aman, pointing to the merciful counter, his saliva almost dripping out.

Mercy smiled and nodded, "Yes." ”

"Then why don't you sell it to me? It's good to make a little more money. ”

There was still a smile on his face: "You should always know that I have a rule, and I only sell sixty rabbits a day." ”

Chen Aman also knew that it was impossible to buy it, but he still had some reluctance in his heart and asked, "You roast sixty-one rabbits every day." ”

"Yes, this sixty-first rabbit is the most tender and fragrant. ”

"Did you eat it yourself?"

Shake your head mercilessly.

"Since you don't eat it yourself, why don't you sell it?"

Liulu exhaled, looked at Chen Aman with a strange look, and said, "Even if I dare to sell this rabbit, you won't dare to rob it." ”

Chen Aman was stunned for a moment and said, "Why?"

"This rabbit is what Miss Bai wanted. ”

Chen Aman stopped talking, but he didn't dare to rob, Miss Bai was Bai Bing'er, the granddaughter of the city lord, how could he dare to rob? But Chen Aman couldn't help but ask a few more words: "Then why don't you sell a few more rabbits a day?"

Smile mercilessly: "Then I'm going to be tired to death." ”

After saying that, he took the last roast rabbit, closed the door, and walked to the backyard.

Not long after he sat down, he heard a silver bell-like laughter, which he had heard too much, and Bai Bing'er had already walked in, carrying a bottle of wine in her hand.

"Why do you come so punctually every time?" asked Lu Mian, he was really curious, every time he just closed the store, Bai Bing'er came.

Bai Bing'er smiled: "Guess?" Her mood was a little happy, as if everyone who was about to eat the merciful roast rabbit would be so happy.

Smile mercilessly: "You shouldn't have been watching me all the time." ”

Bai Bing'er snorted a few times and said, "Think beautiful, do you think you look good?" Bai Bing'er had already sat down, tore a rabbit leg and ate it first.

Liumian shook his head a little helplessly, he watched Bai Bing'er eat a whole leg and then she drank it from the wine bottle, and said mercilessly: "You drink like this, how can I still drink?"

Bai Bing'er smiled, handed over the wine bottle, and smiled bitterly, but she didn't dare to brush the meaning of the eldest lady in front of her who changed the hexagram faster than turning the book, and the only way to show mercy was to take the wine bottle and drink, the roast rabbit was originally very strong, and the taste of this wine should have been very strong, but it seemed that she could still taste Bai Bing'er's fragrance on the mouth of the wine bottle.

"Have you ever been in the tower behind the City Lord's Mansion?" asked Liulu suddenly.

Bai Bing'er glanced at it mercilessly, but then refocused her gaze on the remaining half of the roast rabbit, and she said while eating: "It is the forbidden place of the city that never sleeps, and no one can enter except for the city lord." ”

Mercy nodded.

Bai Bing'er said again: "That tower is called Qingying Tower. ”

"Qing is poor, Ying is a hero, and every city lord of the city that never sleeps is a great hero who is willing to be poor. Although Bai Bing'er kept talking, her mouth kept eating.

"Inside are the biographies, portraits, and weapons of our city lords. Bai Bing'er said.

Nodding mercilessly, he looked back in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, the tower that could be seen anywhere in the City that never sleeps. Bai Bing'er pushed with her elbow and said, "Hey, don't think about it, if you are found in that tower, there will be only one way to die." ”

smiled mercilessly, and answered Bai Bing'er.

Bai Bing'er muttered: "If you die, I'm afraid I will only die." ”

was shocked, and looking at Bai Bing'er's eyes, he couldn't help but soften. Bai Bing'er said again: "I'm already in love with you rabbit, if you don't eat it for a day, it's better to die comfortably." ”

He was stunned again, so he had to smile wryly and shake his head. Bai Bing'er was looking at Mercy, there was an indescribable look in her eyes, this kind of brilliance, Mercy had also been seen when her mother mentioned her father.

Bai Bing'er said suddenly: "The four people who tied me up are not your friends." ”

Mercy was silent, although he knew that Bai Bing'er seemed to have seen something when he was in the Valley of Locking Life, but at this moment, when Bai Bing'er said it himself, he still felt a little strange in his heart, and nodded mercilessly.

Bai Bing'er said: "Do you think that if you kidnap me and save me, I will definitely be able to invite you to join the City That Never Sleeps?"

Be merciful and don't speak.

Bai Bing'er said: "Just because I saw through your tricks, but I still invited you to the city that never sleeps according to your idea." ”

Mercy sighed.

"I don't know what your purpose is in the city that never sleeps, but without you, my grandfather would not have been healed. ”

She didn't seem to want to answer mercilessly at this time, but said: "One life for another, you saved my grandfather, and I will let you go, so I didn't tell my grandfather what I thought." ”

Bai Bing'er paused, and then said, "I know you never want to hurt my grandfather, otherwise what would you do to save him?"

Mercy glanced at Bai Bing'er, a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes, although it was extremely difficult to detect, he was still captured by Bai Bing'er, and said mercilessly: "I just want to know the truth." ”

"The truth, what the truth?"

Smile mercilessly: "You'll know when the time comes." ”

Bai Bing'er bowed her head and was silent.

Merciful: "Since you already know that my purpose is not pure, then why do you ......?"

Before he finished his words, Bai Bing'er seemed to be a little annoyed, Bai Bing'er said, "Stupid!" After saying that, Bai Bing'er left, and when she left, she was still a little angry, leaving only one person to smile bitterly on the spot.

night

There is no night in the city that never sleeps, the ordinary capital city has long been quiet at this time, but the city that never sleeps is still brightly lit, large and small shops are still open, even the night of the sleepless city in the cold winter is not cold, but the north wind is cold, mixed with snowflakes, walking on the road has been a little difficult to see passers-by, but this can not stop the enthusiasm of the people in the sleepless city.

However, the guards of the City Lord's Mansion still did not decrease.

To get to the Qingying Tower, you must pass through the City Lord's Mansion, fortunately, the mercy of the light work is not bad, people who know the family history of the mercy will naturally not doubt his light skills, although there are a lot of soldiers in the City Lord's Mansion, but they can't stop the mercy, and the mercy has arrived near the Qingying Tower at this moment.

Qingying Pagoda is surrounded by a wall, the only entrance and exit is watched by four good hands, and then there are four teams of people constantly around the wall around the circle, each team is only about thirty battles apart, even if the snow has almost covered the line of sight at this time, but the naked eye can also see the front team of people, mercy has been observed for a long time, and found that there is only one way to enter this wall.

The wall was square, and only after the men of the previous party had gone around this corner and walked twenty battles could they enter through it, taking advantage of the cold wind and heavy snow, so that they would not notice the movement.

At this time, a group of people had just turned the corner, and he exhaled softly, his heart was beating faster than usual, so he didn't feel cold at all.

The group had traveled more than twenty feet, and suddenly their feet were strong, and their bodies rose into the air, and they entered the wall in a short time. There is only a slight distance between the Qingying Pagoda and the various walls, but there are many more caretakers inside than the City Lord's Mansion, and when he fell from the wall, he didn't really see it because of the heavy snow, but after falling to the ground, he couldn't help but secretly complain, at this time he was perched on a tree, and he didn't dare to move at all.

Merciful eyes looked up, looking under this tower, this tower was so high that people couldn't help but feel a little cold, it was impossible to enter through the door, Merciless estimated the height of the first floor, and decided to take a risk.

I saw that Liumerci jumped in, and really fell on the eaves of the first floor of the tower, and was secretly happy in his heart, secretly opened the window, and entered the tower almost effortlessly under the cover of the wind and snow.

The tower was brightly lit, but there was no one, and how could there be people in the forbidden land.

The first layer is the file of the founder of the city that never sleeps, and he lost interest after taking a look at it, and he found that the second layer was the second generation of the city lord, so he went straight to the thirteenth floor, but the thirteenth floor was empty.

There was a sword box on the desk on the thirteenth floor, but the box was open, and there was a sword lying inside, and after growing up in the pile of weapons, he knew that this sword was a steel sword, and the scabbard was inlaid with a crystal clear emerald.

Mercifully opened the file behind the sword case:

Name: Liu Suixiao.

Gender: Male

Length: Six feet

Weapons: Baoyu steel sword

Life experience: Liu Suixiao has been a grain shop of the Liu family in the city that never sleeps, his father Liu Xianwen does not know martial arts, and his swordsmanship is learned from his mother Pan Qifeng, and the eighteen-year-old Liu Suixiao's swordsmanship has been proud of his peers, and even the left protector at that time praised his swordsmanship. Liu Suixiao participated in the Demon Sect War with the Left Protector, the Left Protector was accidentally injured, Liu Suixiao desperately protected, and saved the life of the Left Protector, but the Left Protector was unable to practice martial arts for life, the Left Protector was depressed for life, reported to the city lord, and handed over the Zuo Protector to Liu Suixiao, Liu Suixiao took over and traveled in the rivers and lakes on the orders of the city lord, Liu Suixiao entered the rivers and lakes to challenge thirty-nine people, including the famous Tang Men Tang Chasing Rain, Wudang An Dao Chang and the like, only one defeat, the defeated person was the new head of Wudang Bai Yunzi. Liu Suixiao spread the name of the city that never sleeps on the rivers and lakes, and then the city lord died, and passed on the throne to Liu Suixiao, Liu Suixiao repeatedly made strange moves, so that no one offended the city that never sleeps on the rivers and lakes, and the prestige of the city that never sleeps rose day by day.

It's a pity that the sky is jealous of the talent, Liu Suixiao Liu City Lord suffered from illness later, and his temperament changed greatly when he was sick, and he hid in the house all day long, and Chinese New Year's Eve no one saw him except the left protector.

Died: March 27.

After looking at it mercilessly, I was a little surprised, this Liu Suixiao Liu City Lord was only afraid that the earliest city lord who died in the city that never sleeped, thirty-two years old, for a person who practiced martial arts, it was just a snap of his fingers.

How could a person who practices martial arts become ill at the age of thirty-two?

Even if he was sick, there was no record of what kind of disease he was born in.

Mercifully put away the files, and left the Qingying Pagoda the same way, leaving was much easier than entering.

The wind and snow have been much lighter, Youming has come to Qingying Tower, what Bai Bing'er doesn't know is that the left and right Dharma Protectors will be responsible for the protection of Qingying Tower, each person rotates for one day, and today it happened to be Youming's turn.

Youming is carrying a few pots of wine in his hands, this is for the guards to drink, the weather is cold, drinking a pot of wine to warm up the body is undoubtedly the best, Youming is cold on weekdays, in fact, the people under him are not bad, so the subordinates usually admire this right protector very much.

The guards still had respect on their faces when they took Youming's wine, in fact, the left and right protectors came during the day on weekdays, and who would come to this place at night? They knew that Youming felt that they were a little cold, so they sent some wine, especially the wine was still warm, presumably Youming deliberately quickened his pace when he rushed over, otherwise the wine would have already been bright.

Youming distributed the wine to his subordinates, at this time it was no longer goose feathers and heavy snow, just a few snowflakes floating at random, but Youming's body still fell a lot, Youming held his hand against Qingying Tower, everyone knew that every day when the right protector came to Qingying Pagoda for a while, everyone did not dare to ask, in their hearts the right protector always has his reason.

But today, Youming didn't stay in a daze for a long time, because he found something that he didn't have on weekdays.

Each layer of Qingying Pagoda was covered with thick snowflakes, but one layer was different - there were footprints on the snowflakes on the first layer - if it weren't for the snow suddenly getting smaller, this footprint would only be covered.

Yu Ming jumped up a level, and his action naturally caused a reaction from the guards, who were really startled when they saw his movements, but then they saw those footprints.
