Chapter 17 Yunzhou City
The next morning, the people in Qingtang Town were spreading the sensational news that the Xiangmanlou had been wiped out in a fire last night. The strange thing www.biquge.info the pen and the fun pavilion is that none of the people in the building escaped, and all of them were burned to ashes.
In fact, this is another illusion of Qianying's meditation arrangement.
At the same time, a gorgeous boat left the ferry of Qingtang Town, and sailed north along the sea not far from the coastline. Qianying took the incense and filled the building, and all the people in the building were on the boat.
Shi Le came to Qianying's room and asked, "You must have put a lot of effort into placing so many corpses in the Xiangman Building overnight!"
Qianying smiled and said: "Yes! The coffins in the new grave within a radius of two hundred miles have become empty! Fortunately, the local ordinary people have a lot of respect for corpses, and they will never open the coffin for an autopsy, so although this move is reckless, it is not easy to expose!"
Schle asked, "How's the itinerary?"
Qianying said: "Our boat can enter the inland river, and along the inland river, we can go directly to Fengyun City in Liangzhou. But to get to Liangzhou City, you have to walk a long way by land!"
Shi Le said: "I have something to go to Yunzhou City, where to get off the boat is closer. ”
Qianying said: "The inland river will go all the way to the northwest, and it will get farther and farther away from Yunzhou City. So if you want to go to Yunzhou City, it's best to go ashore at the mouth of the sea, and I'll let people arrange it immediately!"
Shi Le didn't interfere, and let Qianying toss away! The next morning, as soon as Shile got up, Qianying came to announce that the ship had arrived ashore! There was a team of eighteen horses parked on the shore, all dressed in black clothes and armed with samurai swords. There was also a gorgeous black-canopy carriage, driven by a delicate-looking girl in blue. If you don't look closely, you can't believe that the woman is the bewitching woman in the fragrant building, and now she washes off the lead and reveals her makeup, and she looks as kind as the little girl next door.
"Her name is Xiaoyu, and she is my personal bodyguard. In the Xiangmanlou, swordsmanship is second only to me. Xiao Yu is only sixteen years old, and she is still a virgin, and I was reluctant to let her pick up customers before, so I have been protecting her and preparing to sell at a price! Let her serve you by your side in the future!" Qianying said, pointing to the blue-clothed girl on the shore. Scheller did not refuse. Qianying pointed to the eighteen warriors and said, "They are all dead warriors secretly cultivated by the Spirit of the Dragon. Because he has relied on drugs to stimulate his physical potential since he was a child, although he is agile but his mind is slow, he absolutely obeys the orders of his master! These people are the hidden killer of Demon Scorpion Island, and they have not been sent to perform tasks! You can use them with confidence!"
Qianying introduces Shile to the Eighteen Samurai and asks them to defend Shile to the death.
Shi Le got off the boat and sat in the carriage and asked Qianying, "Can you settle the rudder in Liangzhou?"
Qianying said: "The helmsmen of all parts of Scorpion Island only recognize the Qiankun Ring as a symbol of the dragon's spirit. Now that the spirit of the dragon is dead, and the whereabouts of the Qiankun Ring are unknown, if you want to integrate the rudders from all over Kyushu, it is indispensable to shed blood. However, the rudder strength of Yunzhou is strong. I'm confident that I will be able to stabilize the organization within a year!"
As soon as Shi Le heard about the Qiankun Ring, he remembered the Black Iron Ring and asked, "Have you ever seen the Qiankun Ring, and what does it look like?"
Qianying said: "I have seen it, it is a black iron ring that looks plain on the surface, and its practical material is extraordinary and difficult to imitate! It is heavier than gold and extremely hard, it can cut gold and break jade!"
Shile asked, "How many rings does the Dragon's Spirit have?"
Qianying said, "Of course there is only one!" She wanted to say something more, but Shi Le interrupted her and said, "Okay! Listen to my next command!"
Qianying nodded and said, "The person in charge of the Yunzhou City rudder knows Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu can help you arrange all the affairs there." From Yunzhou City, you can contact the rudders in all parts of Kyushu, and you can find me at any time!"
When Shi Le heard this, he said happily: "This is very good!
Qianying lowered her head in emotion and said, "Thank you, young master!"
Xiao Yu drove the carriage slowly, and nine of the eighteen samurai were in front and nine in the back to protect the carriage in the middle and drive away.
On the way, Xiaoyu heard Shile asking herself to borrow a sword in the carriage, so she handed Shile her favorite personal dagger. After a while, Shi Le only handed out half of the dagger that had been broken in the middle. Xiao Yu's eyes were red as if he had been wronged, and his heart said: An old pervert has gone, and a little pervert has come.
In the carriage, Shile put the black iron ring into the flesh of his palm. He looked at the half-cut dagger that had fallen beside him, and thought to himself that the test just now proved that the Black Iron Ring should be the so-called Qiankun Ring. Not to mention the secret of the Qiankun Ring itself, its value is immeasurable just because it can command the rudder of Demon Scorpion Island in various parts of Kyushu.
Yunzhou City is located on the south bank of the upper reaches of Yunshui. Surrounded by water on three sides, one side is backed by a mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it is valued by soldiers of all dynasties. The city wall is slightly square, with a circumference of thirty miles and a height of eighty feet. There are 6 city gates built on all sides of the city wall, and outside each gate, there is a moon city for garrisoning soldiers and storing weapons, and there are towers and tall towers built on the city gates. The quaint Cangsang city gate is heavily guarded, and you need to pay a heavy poll tax to enter the city. And the time for outsiders to stay in Yunzhou City is strictly limited. This is because of the continuous famine in Yunzhou, and the bandits have been plagued for many years, and refugees from all over the world have gathered near Yunzhou City. If it weren't controlled, the refugees in Yunzhou City would have bloomed everywhere long ago!
It was morning when Shile came to the streets of Yunzhou. The ten-mile long street in Yunzhou City is full of traffic and people, and there are signs of prosperity. Xiao Yu took Shi Le to a quiet garden near a lake in Dongcheng and lived. Eighteen samurai also lived in the backyard of the garden. There are dozens of rooms in front of and behind this garden, as well as twelve slaves and maidservants. The name of the garden is "Fengya Garden", and the owner on the surface is the owner of the Yellow Crane Tower, the largest restaurant in Yunzhou City, but in fact, the Yellow Crane Tower and Feng Yayuan are both the industries of the Scorpion Island. The owner of the Yellow Crane Tower is a hall master of Demon Scorpion Island in Yunzhou City.
After everything was settled, Shi Le decided to go to the streets of Yunzhou, so he left Fengyayuan with Xiaoyu alone.
Xiaoyu has been to Yunzhou City several times before, and is no stranger to the Siqu Eight Streets and wine shops and bazaars in Yunzhou City. She acted as a guide to Ishler.
When she went out, Xiaoyu was still dressed as a man and pretended to be a scholar. And Shi Le only wore a simple green robe, like a scholarly son.
Xiao Yu behaved very restrained in front of Shi Le, and Shi Le was uncomfortable when he shouted "Young Master!" They stopped outside the door of a tailor shop that looked quite large. The name of the tailor shop is "Slim Place".
Walking into the store, a man with a bright eye full of gaudy silk forging, rolls of fine cloth on the mahogany shelves for people to choose from. Several ladies were discussing with the tailor what color of dress would suit their body type. A few guys circled around them, but no one stepped forward to take care of Shile and Xiaoyu.
Shi Le burst out: "Are all the people in this shop dead!" The sound was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and everyone in the store turned pale. A beautiful and dignified middle-aged woman hurriedly ran to Shi Le's side, lowered her head and said, "I didn't know that the distinguished guests were coming, and I didn't welcome them from afar, so I was offended." Please bear with me!" she said, looking at Shile secretly out of the corner of her eye. Seeing that Shi Le was dressed and dressed ordinarily, he didn't look like a wealthy and powerful person, so he slowly stood up straight, looked directly at Shi Le's face, and waited for Shi Le's next reaction.
"Dogs look down on people!" Xiao Yu scolded, "My young master Le went out lightly today, just to experience the life of ordinary people, but he never thought that he would be left out here." I don't think you want to open this little shop!"
The woman in the tailor shop bowed her head again. There are dozens of princes and nobles in Yunzhou City, and there are even more relatives and friends, who knows if there will be any supergiants behind a seemingly inconspicuous little person! She hurriedly apologized to Shi Le again, and Shi Le didn't care about her. As if nothing happened, she asked her to tailor a set of the best-looking clothes for Xiaoyu. The woman in the tailor shop called herself Tailor Xu, and she immediately selected the fabric for Xiaoyu herself, tailor-made the clothes, and her movements were very sharp.
Looking at the busy tailor Xu, Shi Le was slightly satisfied! A few moments later, a set of red pleated dresses was ready. If it is customized by ordinary people, the tailor shop will at least tell you that it will take at least three days to make it. When Xiaoyu changed into new clothes and appeared in front of everyone, it was refreshing.
Shi Le said in amazement: "Gu Wenyun: There is a beauty, dressed in a slender cloth, with a beautiful posture, and a spring flower. I think it's just a cute little girl like you!"
Xiao Yu lowered his head shyly and thought: Is the young master interested in me, if he wants me, how can I refuse!
Shi Le didn't care what Xiaoyu thought, and took her to a refining shop to sell her a noble dagger. Xiao Yu looked at the new dagger and couldn't put it down. At this time, a smile appeared on her face, and she also became lively. Unconsciously, she turned from fear to awe of Shile.
Shi Le came to the Yunzhou Palace, wanting to meet the county lord of Murong Yan and was stopped by the guards. He was clever and claimed to be Murong Wan's senior brother, asked the guards to pass it on his behalf and stuffed a few broken silver carts into the sleeves of the guards. This time, the guards did not shirk and went to the door to report.
A moment later, Murong Wan actually came out to greet him in person. When she saw that it was Shi Le, she was quite surprised and asked, "Why are you?"
Shi Le just said that he wanted to see Murong Yan, and there were some things he wanted to give to her. Murong Wan mischievously said that Murong Yan went to the Yellow Crane Tower to feast on the prince of Liangzhou and the new generation of young talents in Yunzhou, and she could lead the way!
It turned out that after they returned to Yunzhou City, the king of Yunzhou asked her to stay at home for a few days to accompany her family! But Murong Wan, who had been free and comfortable in the rivers and lakes for a long time, really couldn't stand the lifeless environment in the palace, and thought about leaving the palace as soon as possible. Today, she heard that her sister was going to hold a banquet in the Yellow Crane Tower to entertain the prince of Liangzhou, so she wanted to go with her, but Murong Yan refused! When she was depressed, Shi Le came to the door, and just gave her a legitimate reason to attend the banquet in the Yellow Crane Tower.
But who knew that when they came to the Yellow Crane Tower with great interest, they were blocked out again. The eagle wolf guard led by the prince of Liangzhou surrounded the Yellow Crane Tower and did not let anyone enter the building. The commander of the Eagle Wolf Guard said to Shi Le: "Ning Lu, the prince of Liangzhou, has already taken over the Yellow Crane Tower, and the idle people are waiting to avoid it!"
Murong Wan stepped forward and said, "I think your host is a guest of our Yunzhou, so he should follow the customs of the locals and follow the host." The person who invited the master of your family today is none other than my sister Murong Yan, the county lord. And now you're keeping her sister and her friends out, what a point!"
The Eagle Wolf Guard Commander was unmoved and said, "The subordinates are just acting on orders, and they also ask the little county lord to go upstairs to rest." But I can't let these friends you said go!"
This Eagle Wolf Guard Commander is a guy who doesn't eat oil and salt, and he doesn't agree to let Shi Le go over even if Murong Wan uses both soft and hard, coercion and temptation. Murong Wan was angry and said, "Okay, you fool, you wait for me, I'll go back and let my father send troops to take this place!" Then she left angrily, regardless of Shi Le! Murong Wan said goodbye in a fit of anger and went directly to the Imperial Wind Sword Gym!
After Murong Wan left, Shi Le pulled Xiao Yu to a nearby street corner. He said to Xiaoyu: "I remember you said that the Yellow Crane Tower is one of our industries!"
Xiao Yu said with understanding: "Yes! Boss Wei has always been obedient to Sister Qianying's horse head!"
"Does my words count the same?" Schleer asked.
"Of course, my sister has to listen to you!, not to mention that Boss Huang is just a hall master!" Xiao Yu said.
Shile smiled and whispered in his whisper. After hearing this, Xiao Yu smiled and said, "The young master is wise and martial!" and then turned around and walked towards a small alley behind the Yellow Crane Tower.
