In the middle of summer, there is no appetite for anything to eat for those who have rushed to the hot road. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoHowever, if there is a bowl of cool and luscious jelly, it is a different matter. Ten miles north of Phoenix, there is a willow village, because at the T-junction of the village, there is a very large willow tree. It stood proudly by the small river by the roadside, and no one could tell how old it was. It seems that the oldest people in the village said the same thing, and when they were very young, this willow tree was what it is now!

No matter how the years go by, no matter how the king changes, it is still it - the willow tree does not change!

However, in such a hot summer, those who meditate hard will build a pergola under the willow tree, set up a few sets of tables and chairs, and sell some cold powder that passers-by urgently need. Business is really good, from the south to the north, the endless stream of passers-by have to sit down and eat a bowl.

Especially at this point in time, just after the afternoon, it is very hot. In addition, the front of the road is very open, and there is a fresh breeze wafting from the thousands of acres of green rice in the fields, which is cool and refreshing, and the scenery is beautiful! At this time, five or six tables and a dozen or so stools are already full.

At this moment, there was a sparkling sound of carriages in the distance. attracted the people present to look back, but sitting on the right side of the cold powder shelf, that is, on a table in front of the big willow tree, were five men walking the rivers and lakes. Their knives are placed horizontally on the table, and they are all well-decorated scabbards, and the steel knives inside must be genuine weapons!

In the direction of the carriage, the man sitting in the middle was Martin, a tall man with a pair of fox eyes. And the man with a round waist and thick shoulders sitting opposite him was also his partner He Guotao. After they had killed Kang Laosi by the river, they heard again that someone had seen the old man, driving a carriage with a black curtain, along the main road in the suburbs, all the way north.

Therefore, they hurried to the willow village where the suburban road must pass. The carriage is getting closer and closer, and the people who eat the jelly continue to bury their heads in eating the jelly, only the people who came with Martin and He Guotao have no heart to eat the jelly anymore. The main reason for this was that they didn't know if the oncoming carriage covered with a green cloth curtain was the carriage they were going to intercept that was sitting on the murderer of the sword king Murong Bai.

The things that don't know the bottom of your heart are the hardest things to do, and because of that, these people are very anxious.

The carriage came to the cool powder shed and took the initiative to stop. Above, an old coachman in his sixties, with white hair and beard, but his waist was very straight, and his thin body looked very energetic, and he had a pig's waist face, which was not ugly. On the contrary, there is a group of harmony, and the appearance of kind eyebrows and kind eyes makes people awe-inspiring. He was wearing a collar, light gray undershirt and a sweat towel around his neck. With a spring breeze on his face, he walked to the cold powder shelf and said to the emaciated old woman:

"Mother-in-law, come four bowls of cold noodles!"

"Hey, master, why do you have to eat four bowls of jelly?" asked a man sitting next to Martin.

The old man glanced back at the other party, smiled and said, "There are still a few guests inside!"

"Besides, under the big willow tree, it is much cooler and refreshing than in the carriage." ”

The old coachman smiled, and now he had already repaid the money for the four bowls of jelly, "Yes!" he picked up the four bowls of jelly with both hands and said, "These guests are very lazy, and they want me, the old coachman, to do everything." ”

"Then such guests should be driven out of the car?" said He Guotao, who had a round waist and thick shoulders.

At this time, the old coachman had already brought four bowls of cold noodles to the door of the carriage, and when he heard him say this, he only turned around and smiled. The car door opened, and a pair of thin hands stretched out, and took the three bowls of cold powder in his hands in turn.

"I'm not joking with you!" Unexpectedly, He Guotao suddenly arrived at his carriage as he spoke, and he said coldly, "We were ordered by Lord Qin of Phoenix City to investigate the murderer of the sword king Murong Bai here. ”

When the old coachman heard this, he stopped the cold powder sent to his mouth, his eyes with a hesitant look, slowly turned his head, looked at the other party's murderous face, and said with a smile on his face: "This lord, why don't you open the curtain and take a look, there are two ladies inside who don't want to see the living, please understand the difficulties of the woman's family!"

He Guotao is also reasonable when he hears him say this, after all, this is not in Phoenix City, this is a strange Liuzhuang, and he should be cautious in his own actions. Therefore, he nodded, and with the handle of the knife in his hand, he picked up the curtain and looked inside. Inside, indeed, were two women and a man reclining on his side. However, the other party turned his back to him, so that he could not see his face.

"Who is this lying man," He Guotao pointed to the reclining man and said, "Let him turn around, I'll see!"

"Sir, I am afraid that he will frighten you when he turns around!" explained the old coachman, "this is a man with a sheep's madness, and his appearance is very ugly, and I am afraid that you will lose your appetite when you look at it." ”

"What are you afraid of, I won't kiss him again!" He Guotao said strongly, "Tell him to turn around, or I will call someone to go up and take him down." ”

When the old man saw this, he could only smile embarrassedly, "Then there is no need!" he said, "the guest officer inside, you tell him to turn around and let the old man check and inspect it." After all, people are also on orders!"

So, the old woman with gray sideburns pushed the reclining man on the back, "Fool, fool!" she said, "Turn your face, quick, turn your face, let this man see." ”

"Well, who's it!" Suddenly, He Guotao stood below and was taken aback, listening to the other party's voice, it was like the cry of a strange snake coming from a cave, with a cold air, gloomy into his ears, and saw him slowly turn around, and said, "Didn't my grandfather die early, why did he live again?" and looked back, He Guotao was taken aback.

But when he saw it, the other party tilted his neck, squinted his eyes, and put his tongue on the side of his mouth, like a mouse that had just been fished out of the water, which was unbearable. Seeing this, He Guotao's heart suddenly turned upside down, and the bowl of cold noodles he had just eaten vomited under the carriage with a bang. He shook his hand at the other and motioned for them to hurry up and leave, and stop making him sick and disgusted here!

"Uncle, I just said it, I can't see ......"

"Go!" Before the old man could finish speaking, he roared, "don't be verbose, be careful that I overturn your carriage." When the old man heard this, he was very frightened, and in a panic he handed back the four porcelain bowls to the cold powder shop, and hurried up to the seat, grabbed the reins of the horse, and was about to whip the horse. But suddenly I heard Martin, who was sitting on the cold powder table under the willow tree, shouting: "Slow, stop!" The old coachman trembled when he heard this.

It turned out that Martin was sitting there, observing the movement of the carriage all the time. Suddenly, he noticed that there were drops of blood under the carriage, dripping into the dust on the ground. And these drops of blood are also the blood that spilled from Nanjian's wounds. Because, just now he was at Cao Bing's house, and when he was crawling on the ground, he broke the wound again.

And the scene He Guotao saw when he opened the curtain of the carriage just now was exactly the grimace that Nan Jian had no choice but to pretend to be! Unfortunately, they finally discovered it. (To be continued.) )
