Chapter 6: Bringing the Sword to the Appointment
"Wang Million is your uncle!" the other muttered, as if surprised. But he immediately adjusted his mood again, he said with a sneer.
"No matter what, we have a fight today!"
"Why?" Wu Shuang still asked coldly.
"Sometimes you don't need a reason to kill someone!"
"But you're not like that. β
"Oh!" the other party was stunned for a moment, and suddenly asked again, "Then what am I like?"
"You look like a very kind person," Wu Shuang said, "not at all like a murderous and unreasonable person!"
The other party, smiling, said, "Good and evil cannot be seen from the surface!"
"Of course," Wu Shuang said, "sometimes you can feel it with your heart!"
"Now no matter what you say, my sword will not hesitate!"
"In other words, you have to kill me?" Wu Shuang asked.
"That's right. β
"Then why don't you do it yet?" Wu Shuang asked again.
"I'm not going to kill an unarmed man!" said the man, "now I'll give you two choices!"
"Those two choices?"
"The first choice: Please return Songshan Manor to Wang Million, and then hide it quickly!"
"And what about the second option?"
"Go back and bring your sword, I'll be waiting for you in the maple grove of Falling Goose City. β
After the other party finished speaking, he left.
Wu Shuang also walked towards the south gate of Songshan Manor without looking back.
The south gate of Songshan Manor is guarded by several skilled people all year round; at this moment, Zhang Wei is not there, but his right-hand man Han Xiao will definitely stick to his post.
Seeing the owner of Wu Zhuang coming, Han Xiao stood very respectfully on the side of the gate from a distance, and he was waiting for the owner of the village to come. He is a very conscientious person, a few days ago he was the first person to tell the news of Wu Shuang's arrival in Luoyan City to the whole Songshan Manor, and he was also the first to be on full alert, ready to fight with Wu Shuang.
Today, however, everything has changed, as if it had become another world. The man he had been a great enemy a few days ago has become his master today. Did he feel the same cruel torture and struggle as all the people in Songshan Manor? However, one thing is certain, as long as he chose to stay in this post, then he also chose to be loyal and fulfill his duties.
Because, he is such a person who dares to act, and he is also a person with clear grievances. Therefore, now he saw Wu Shuang walking towards the door, his expression was so solemn, rigorous, and reverent, unfortunately, he was born with a solemn face, whether it was happy or sad, whether it was expensive or cheap, he was also faced with a solemn face.
- Han Xiao never laughs.
Wu Shuang knew that he had always been a strict person, and he also knew how reverent his respectful expression was to him at the moment, so when he walked into the door, when he passed by Han Xiao, he didn't forget to nod in time, so as to show that he responded accordingly to this lofty respect.
A quarter of an hour later, Han Xiao saw their owner walk out towards the gate again, and this time he had an extra sword in his handβa black-sheathed long sword that he had brought with him when he came to Falling Goose City.
The owner of the village came to the door again, but this time Han Xiao found that the owner's expression was extremely heavy, so he also had a premonition that the owner of the village must have something very difficult to do when he went out with a sword, and he needed to bring a sword to deal with it personally.
When the owner passed in front of him again, he still stood respectfully as a sign of respect, but this time, he did not even expect that he would suddenly say a word to the owner.
"Owner, do you need to send some people?"
Wu Shuang stopped when he heard this, he turned around and looked at him with a smile of relief.
"No, thank you, brother. β
He was about to turn around and leave, when suddenly he stopped hesitantly, and then he said to Han Xiao again.
"Brother, is Mr. Zhang busy with other things?"
"Yes, owner. Han Xiao said, "The day of the duel is getting closer and closer, and Mr. Zhang will arrange the specific matters for receiving visitors!"
"Oh!" Wu Shuang nodded.
Suddenly, he said, "Trouble my brother, okay!" he said in an extremely tactful tone, without the slightest hint of compulsion.
"Please let the owner command!"
"I'll meet with the three stewards later, and tell them," he said, looking at the sun that was already in the west, and then added, "If I don't come back before the sun sets, ask them to invite my uncle Wang Million back to be the owner of Songshan Manor." β
"Can the owner tell me what happened?" Han Xiao asked solemnly.
"Nothing happened," Wu Shuang said calmly, "You believe that I will take care of everything!" he turned to leave, but after taking a few steps, he stopped again, and turned around again, he still looked at Han Xiao with a relieved smile.
"Brother, there's one more thing I need to trouble you!"
"The owner of the village just tells you to!"
"If I don't come back before sunset, you have to help me tell Mr. Zhang, there is a guy named Mao Xiaoer in Fengming Inn, he is loyal and honest, hard-working, and a very good person;
"Understood, owner. I'll tell you!"
This time, Han Xiao and a few companions saw the owner of Wu Zhuang and resolutely turned around and walked in the direction of the west side of the street, and he also called an oncoming simple carriage. He got into the carriage with one step, and then Han Xiao and his companions saw their master Wu Zhuang riding in the simple carriage and speeding westward.
The simple carriage was a simple carriage composed of wheels, axles, keels and wheels, and a wooden chair with a double backrest was firmly placed on a solid flat plate of keel and beams, and a simple wall compartment was made of square wooden shelves and drapery on all sides. This simple wall compartment can be used to keep passengers from getting wet on days of light rain and breeze, but when it is raining and windy, they have to bathe in the dew together!
After the owner left, Han Xiao and a few companions couldn't understand why he wanted to take the kind of tasty and tattered garbage carriage that he had in the village, but why did he take the tattered garbage carriage that hurt his buttocks?
Just when they were puzzled, Zhang Wei came. Seeing that they were talking solemnly about something important.
"Brothers, what are you talking about?" asked Zhang Wei.
"Mr. Zhang, you came just in time, we have an important thing to tell you......" So Han Xiao told Zhang Wei everything that Master Wu had explained to him.
Zhang Wei's expression changed greatly after hearing this, and he immediately said decisively.
"Go and inform the other two stewards and tell them to get here at once, because we have important matters to discuss with them. β
"Understood. Han Xiao rushed away in panic.
