There are walls for the city, and there are no walls for the town. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The state is named after the city, and the city is named after the state.

There are more than 3,000 cities and towns in the world.

There are almost more than fifty states, and if you count the barbarian realms outside the Han Dynasty, there are about sixty states in total.

Jinxiu They wanted to go to Linze City, left Fanzhou, where the prosperous city was located, and went all the way south.

Walk through seven days.

The first city to arrive at is called Beyang City, which belongs to Yunzhou.

Kong Bai painted the dark circles under his eyes again, and he warmly invited Jinxiu to the inn to eat and rest. The two are basically familiar these days.

117

Jianghu Inn.

Kong Bai skillfully brought him in, changed the valuable things on his body first, then paid for two guest rooms, ordered a table of wine and food, asked Jinxiu to be opposite, and handed him chopsticks.

Jinxiu's head was slightly lowered, a little embarrassed because there was nothing on her body.

"Thank you, Brother Qingming, there will be a good reward another day. ”

"Thank you, Xiaosheng, for saving your life. Little brother, don't mind, people in the rivers and lakes often say that they are not informal. You eat first, wait for me to ask the shop here, you don't know, I've always had a messy life over the years, I always wake up and don't know where I am, I seem to have caused some trouble, and I can't remember it, and I'm often hunted down......"

In the past few days, Jinxiu also knows about Kong Bai, he is a person from Linzhou, his family has little property, and he has studied with Mr. Yifan since he was a child, but since the peacock was born, he was implicated, and he was always regarded as the world's top flower picker.

Also, there is fate.

118

Jinxiu was sure that Kong Bai didn't have any pulses in his body.

But if you look closely, it sounds like something is wrong with your feet.

Jinxiu thought about the flower peacock, Kong Bai, and Qianrong in her heart, and felt as if she had figured out some clues, but she couldn't say for sure.

But there was a faint hint of anticipation in the young man's heart.

Picking a flower and infatuating people, love is born without roots.

Stepping on the clouds and the moon and the breeze, I saw it like a fairy.

Remembered and unforgettable.

That peacock, is it really like this?

119

"At a glance, I know that you two are from other places, although our Beiyang is a small city, but the Jiang Gong Temple here is very effective, and countless people come here to worship every year. So the second most powerful thing here is the disciples of Jiang Gong who take care of the Jiang Gong Ancestral Hall. These one hundred and thirteen people, all of them are powerful, and they are deterred, and which one dares to come to our city to make trouble. ”

The shopkeeper continued to talk.

"Some people say that Jiang Gong's disciples are one hundred and thirteen, and Bieyang has been safe like a mountain since then. This ....."

Kong Bai took out a piece of broken silver from his body and gave it to him. The shopkeeper immediately had a serious expression, bent down, pinched one hand into a strange posture, and whispered carefully in Kong Bai's ear, speaking extremely fast.

Jinxiu's hearing is excellent, although this shopkeeper with internal strength should use what kind of beam technique he should use, he can still hear it clearly.

"Jiang Gong's disciples have one hundred internal force and one hundred internal force and thirteen internal force and one line, practicing Jiang meter, and their martial arts are rigorous and standardized, which is extremely difficult to deal with. The names of the rivers and lakes are all in accordance with the order of their strength, with the word Jiang Qi, and the most outstanding one is called Jiang Yichi, named Qin Gui. He Qiulang, the prefect of the city, is a disciple of Qibi Peak, with three veins of internal force, practicing Ruyi Pen, martial arts are harmonious and Ruyi, and the killing is not strong. The Bieyang Gang is a local force with an excellent reputation, specializing in markets, markets, taverns, brothels, theaters, pawnshops, workers, craftsmen, etc., and the gang leader is an ordinary hero of the second line. Because there is a local specialty of Beyang leg fruit, so the copper kettle trading house has a branch here. After speaking, the shopkeeper got up and stood aside.

Kong Bai had been sitting there until he heard the copper kettle firm, frowning.

"The two sons, Beiyang City is small, there are very few rights and wrongs, the two of you shouldn't have to worry about getting into trouble, as long as you don't mean to cause trouble. Later, I will send you our special leg fruit cutting plate, which is sweet and sour, refreshing, clear and greasy. Xiao Er went down after speaking, and when he came up again, in addition to serving the fruit plate, there was also a booklet.

120

Beautiful.

"Little second brother?"

"Childe, please speak?"

"Then what's the best thing about Beiyang?"

"Of course it's the Jianghu Inn! Haha the villain laughed, there are too many powerful people in the world, and no one has ever dared to sit in the first position. Neither can kings. ”

121

It turned out that this was the case, and Jinxiu suddenly remembered that she and her father had asked this question.

I still want to believe my father's answer.

There has never been a first.

Because Jianghu Qu is like this.

122

"Little second brother. ”

Well.

"I have one more thing to ask. ”

Xiao Er only looked at this young beggar at this time, what a pity, if only these eyelids could be opened.

"Can I trouble you in a moment?"

Jinxiu pointed to her eyes.

122

Kong Bai began to blame himself for not being careful enough at this time, and immediately stopped Jinxiu.

"Little brother, you can rest assured, since you have entered the city, I will take care of you. ”

Jinxiu was silent for a moment and nodded.

"Thank you....."

"Call me Brother Kong. ”

"Brother Kong. ”

Kong Bai regretted it again, and he still called Brother Qingming?

123

No matter how smart his ears are and how sharp his nose is.

This young man with a long sword and refuses to let go.

It's still invisible.

Feeling a little sore?

Kong Bai looked at the person in front of him seriously.

124

Splendid continued to eat quietly.

Kong Bai was reading the booklet that Xiao Er had just sent to Jinxiu.

This is the commission order of the Jianghu Inn, and there are some more important rewards and tasks in it. Of course, there are more local commissions. The guest officer paid a deposit here and entrusted the task, and naturally there were people from the rivers and lakes who came to screen some tasks suitable for themselves to complete.

Kong Bai didn't care much about this.

As he read the words in the booklet, he wrote with one hand on the hand of the sword in Jinxiu.

Her long, fair-skinned fingers swiped across the back of her hand.

He felt that Jinxiu was very smart, and in a moment he had memorized a lot of words, and he would soon be able to read.

Then teach him to read!

Well, that's right.

Why didn't I think of it before! How embarrassing we were all the way! Kong Bai babbled in his heart for a long time.

124

The two of them sat there all the time, drinking tea and writing and drawing on each other's tables.

Xiao Er happily wiped the table for them, and kept serving tea and water.

125

In the evening, the two of them planned to go back to their rooms, and Kong Bai and Jinxiu both had smiles on their faces.

"Gongzi Kong, stay here, there is a letter that others want me to give you. ”

"Hey, there's also a letter to Xiaosheng. ”

"Who gave it?"

"A woman, it looks like she has six doors. ”

Qianrong!

Kong Bai showed a hint of fear on his face.

That mad woman is here again! Alas! My life is miserable!

Jinxiu guessed his worries at this time, and opened his mouth with a little Wen Zou Zou's feeling, "Brother Kong, junior brother won't let others hurt you." ”

Jinxiu spoke with a glance, and Kong Bai was moved and funny when he heard it.

I'm also very good, so I got a big master, and the big master has to go to Linze, it's fate!

Mr. is right, there is a fate in the world, everything follows fate, and fate comes from arrangement!

126

"What did she say in the letter?"

Kong Bai opened the letter, his face was very strange.

"The woman said that I was a shameless thief, and that she would always keep an eye on me, and if she found out that I was doing evil, she would deal with me. ”

"What else?"

"He told me to be careful of the copper kettle firm. ”

"Copper kettle firm?"

"Well, it's another unjust debt!" the dark-eyed scholar rubbed his eyebrows helplessly. "Sleep, I'll take you some shopping tomorrow and we'll go." ”

"Good!"

The two went back to their rooms separately and had nothing to do all night.

127

Copper kettle firm, Bieyang branch.

A short-bearded, stocky middle-aged man, and a young man who looked like he had unusually long legs.

The stocky middle-aged man was holding an iron abacus and was crackling there.

The man with oddly long legs sat across from him.

After a while, the short and fat middle-aged man stopped his abacus and opened his mouth.

"I've done the math, if you can help me take this man down, I'll give you seven hundred and fifty-four taels of silver. ”

"I don't believe it, you must have hacked my money. And I don't think it's an easy task at all. ”

"Okay, I'll personally give another five hundred taels, okay?

"More money!" the young man's voice was sharp and arrogant.

"No way, I'm going to find someone else!"

"Hmph, don't mess with me, I'm going to ask the owner of the copper kettle trading house in person. ”

"You wait!" The short and fat middle-aged man was in a hurry, sweating profusely, "I'll introduce you to a master with a particularly good craft!"

"Master, what do I want, master, I ...... It's amazing, you mean?"

"What he said is true, it is said that he is the master of the original Famous Craftsman Villa. That's a great aspect. The short and fat middle-aged man said mysteriously, and at the same time he was a little nervous in his words, for fear of offending the young man in front of him.

"Haha, Famous Craftsman Villa! Famous Craftsman Villa! Great, great! I have long thought that these legs are not good, where are the people you want to arrest? Take me quickly!" The young man was very anxious, and kept walking on the ground. But the legs look very long, which is very weird.

"Brother, don't worry, let's not nominate the Craftsman Villa first, don't worry, no matter whether the arrest is successful or not, I will take you to find that master!" The short and fat middle-aged man looked at the young man very distressed and grabbed his short beard. "Tap, tap, let's go tomorrow, aren't they at the Jianghu Inn! What is said is not false! What is said is not false!"
