Chapter 1, Section 7, Tianshan Black Spider (I) 018
Section 7 Tianshan Black Spider
Back at the inn, Ren Tianqi walked around and didn't see anything abnormal, and the two came to Zhu Hu Yong's residence downstairs. But seeing that the lights were bright in the wings at both ends, I knew that a few people had not fallen asleep, so I hurriedly pushed the door in. I saw that Ren Zhi was asleep on the table, and Ren Yong and Shaur were also lying silently on the bed, without movement, as if they were sleeping very deeply.
Lu Qian smiled and said, "Why are a few people sleeping so deeply today? We didn't even notice when we came in, could it be that we didn't have a good rest?"
Ren Tianqi smiled when he heard this, nodded, and suddenly smelled a little fragrance in the room, and the smile on his face immediately stiffened, and he noticed that something was wrong and hurriedly stepped forward to probe Ren Zhi's snort. Fortunately, the snort was still there, and he hurriedly turned Ren Zhi's body to take a closer look, but he didn't realize that his head was buzzing and exploded, Ren Zhi was unconscious, and he was already fascinated.
Ren Tianqi threw Ren Zhi to his eldest brother, ran out of the door, and went upstairs to the county lord's residence. In the air, he was already drawing his sword in his hand, with murderous intent, his face was flushed, and he was sweating on his back.
Through the window, you can see that there is a dim light in the room, which is not very bright.
Ren Tianqi knocked on the door.
Inside, Xia He whispered urgently: "Who?"
Ren Tianqi hurriedly said: "It's me, Xia He, open the door quickly." ”
Xia He hurriedly said: "Master, wait a minute, the slave will open the door." ”
Xia He hurriedly looked for clothes and wrapped them up in a mess and came to open the door.
Qiu Yue, who was sleeping outside, also got up and lit the lamp again, and went inside to see the county lord.
Ren Tianqi pushed the door in, and saw that Xia He was sleepy, with a disheveled hair, wrapped in a shirt indiscriminately, and was looking at himself with wide eyes, knowing that the county lord and others must be safe and sound, and his heart was slightly peaceful.
Xia He saw that the master was holding a spotted bamboo sword, his eyebrows were angry, his handsome face was flushed, and his face was murderous, I don't know who offended the master, he was startled, and he didn't dare to speak out when he stood still.
The winter snow and autumn moon inside ran over.
Dongxue asked in a low voice: "Master, what's the matter, what are you doing with a sword in the middle of the night, the county lord has already slept." The smile on Dongxue's face was as warm as the spring breeze and the sun.
Ren Tianqi couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Dongxue appear, and a layer of waves suddenly swayed in his heart; Ren Tianqi knew that he had an impulse and desire for Dongxue, but he was different from the feeling of the county lord, so he smiled embarrassedly, secretly sighed, calmed his emotions, put his sword into the sheath, and said: "When the master comes back, he is not very relieved, so he will come over to take a look, if there is nothing to do, go to sleep." ”
Dong Xue was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes to look at her master, bit her lip, turned to Xia He and said, "You go to sleep inside, I'm here, anyway, I won't be able to sleep for a while after making this trouble." ”
Xia He nodded, turned around and took his long whip, and the futon and sword went inside.
Ren Tianqi glanced at Dongxue and laughed softly: "It's not early, you can sleep, be careful not to catch a cold." The master is gone. ”
Seeing the winter snow, Ren Tianqi will always feel more down-to-earth in his heart, as if there is a sense of spiritual connection, perhaps more of a lightness and ease.
Dongxue nodded, followed to the door, and said in a low voice, "Master, something must be going on outside, right?"
Ren Tianqi nodded, looked up at the inside, and whispered, "Someone has come to step on it." Fortunately, Ren Yong and the others just fell into the incense and didn't get in the way, and Uncle Lu was taking care of it. The master went to see the second master and them. Thou shalt be careful. ”
Dongxue nodded and said with a smile: "I know, go by yourself." The slave and maid closed the door. ”
The four looked at each other, and they really looked at each other.
The women were safe and sound, and seeing that the intention of the people who came was not in the people, they should have brought something with them. All the dowries of the county lord are placed in Lu Qian and Hua Shi'an's room, at the upstairs end, thinking that Wen Hua and the two should be fine at this moment.
Still not very relieved, Ren Tianqi pulled his legs and came to Lu Qian's room, and saw that the lights were bright and silent, but when he saw that there were many figures in the room overlapping and reflected in front of the window, he felt bad when he saw his posture.
Ren Tianqi hurriedly pushed the door in, startled by the scene in front of him.
I saw a little red and a black-clothed masked man sitting across the table in the room, speechless and staring at the table, neither of them moving.
The man in black is not very tall, slightly thin, and has gray hair. Gong Ming and Shuangying stood on both sides of the red, and they also stared at the tabletop, but they didn't see the masked man opposite, but they didn't see Mr. Hua's figure.
Ren Tianqi saw that everyone was fine, his heart was slightly wider, he pressed the scabbard and pulled out the long sword, turned around to cover the door, stood behind the door with the sword, and looked at everyone in the room.
When Gong Ming heard the sound, he turned around and saw that the master was back, his face was expressionless, and he hurriedly glanced at it and hurriedly turned his head to stare at the table.
Ren Tianqi stood for a long time, and was very surprised to see that no one answered him, and saw that there seemed to be no danger in the room, and the masked man did not look like he was going to fight with everyone, so he hurriedly put his sword into the sheath and stepped forward.
Only then did I see that everyone was engrossed in looking at the table, and I saw a line of ink drawn on the table, and a huge black and shiny spider about the size of a copper coin was running back and forth along the line on the table, without deviation, and I was very surprised.
Ren Tianqi didn't know where he was, and no one explained to him, so he grabbed his sword and sat down between the two of them like a golden knife.
The spider fruit was dexterous, but also very shy, seeing the smell of a stranger coming, Ben Dang turned his head, along the line actually ran back, and was about to fall off the table, when he saw the masked man on the opposite side waved his hand, and the huge spider bead disappeared.
A little red smiled, waved the iron fan in his hand, shook it lightly, sighed a long breath, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, you have lost." ”
The man on the other side nodded, sighed, and said, "Yes, it's a loss." But if you don't accept it, there are many people here, and you are very mixed, messing up our spider's surname. ”
As soon as the man raised his head, his eyes were dazzling, he glanced at Ren Tianqi, then glanced out of the door, and said angrily: "Second Master Ren, you just came? I'm annoying the old man!"
Gong Ming hurriedly said: "I said this friend, where is that worm of yours?"
The man flicked his cuffs and saw a black box on his wrist.
The man laughed, "The spider rests here." ”
Black Eagle rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Friend, we don't do dark things, we have no grievances with you, why do you want to attack us today, do you want to make money and kill us?"
The man sneered: "Nonsense, if you have no grievances and no hatred, you can't find fault? Since there are unwarranted charges, and this name is worth it, do you understand the rules on the rivers and lakes? Besides, if the old man wants to make money and kill his life, his life will be gone for a long time, so why bother to meet today, and wait until today? It is not the old man and me who started it!"
Black Eagle sneered and pointed at the man: "Could it be that there is someone else?"
The man: "Of course. Didn't Second Master Ren come in, didn't the great monk Lu go out to chase after him? There is also a crutch who still doesn't know where the cat is asleep! Why is it that only my old man can see me?"
Everyone was shocked, how could this person know the root of everyone, and they were stunned, and they glanced at each other.
Ren Tianqi sneered: "How should a friend be praised, how can he be dressed in black and covered in a black scarf if he is not a thief?"
The man laughed and said, "Are all thieves in night clothes or black scarves?" If you don't wear a night suit, aren't you a good person!"
Everyone was stunned, speechless, and slowly sat down.
The man smiled: "However, you are still guessing, and you are really a thief below." ”
When everyone heard this, they got up and surrounded this person, with very different expressions.
It's strange that there are still people in this world who don't have a bad reputation and claim to be thieves. Either this person is highly skilled and bold, or this person has always been brazen.
The man waved his hand, stretched out his hand and pulled down the black scarf on his face, and it turned out to be an old man with a kind face, three strands of white beard, and sixty years old.
The old man got up and stretched, and muttered, "I'm so sleepy, why, seeing my old man show his face, he is so hospitable, and he doesn't bend down to see a good friend!"
Ren Tianqi saw that the old man had a kind face, steady demeanor, and an unsuspecting attitude, thinking that this person must not be a great evil, and his vigilance had already gone for the most part, and he hurriedly smiled: "Old man, you are a thief, you are here to worry about our things, how can I wait to be polite to you? Could it be that I still think that I will invite you to drink?"
The old man turned around and sat down, and said with a smile: "The old man has followed him all the way since he went to Beijing, and he has been with you every night. What can we do with two glasses of wine? We are old friends who share weal and beg!"
When everyone heard this, they became even more nervous, and their hearts hung up again for a moment, and the atmosphere in the room was also very tense. The people have cut off the way of the people who came.
Thousands of miles away, an old man who works tirelessly with him, what is it? But seeing this person's kind face, he must not be a slippery person, and I really don't know what kind of medicine is in his gourd.
Bai Ying slapped the table and said, "You old thing, what do you want to do all the way, is it a secret agent of the Jin Kingdom, or a minion of Lin'an, quickly recruit it!"
Ren Tianqi thought about it and felt that his heart was also hairy, he wanted to know that this road was thousands of miles away, so an old man followed all the way, and he didn't realize it, if something happened on the road, then it would be worth it, and his heart was murderous, and he pretended to smile and said: "Old man, then you know everything?"
The old man raised his head and thought about it, and Ren Tianqi smiled a little: "Almost, let's put it this way, the old man who should know is known, and the one who doesn't want to know is still unknown." According to the old man's estimation, the silver on your body will never exceed fifty taels at the moment, but there is a piece of priceless white jade, as well as two fast seven door waist cards, a fast general gold medal, and a token of the king of the south. ”
A finger and a little red said: "The iron fan you have in hand is made of fine and heavy iron, which can be smashed and cut, and there are hidden organs inside, and there are fourteen long broken meteor needles hidden in the fan." ”
Pointing to Gong Ming, he said: "You kid has a lot of things on him, he is a person who steals chickens and dogs, and he is the same as the little old man." What is unproductive is that the wine bottle of the wine shop will also be worried about it, but the grade is too low, which will damage my old man's eyes and disappoint my old man. ”
Gong Ming's face was red, and he muttered, "When did I get the wine jug in the hotel?"
The old man took out a small porcelain vase from his arms, put it on the table and said with a smile: "Although my old man is over sixty years old, he is not dazzled and deaf, how can he be deceived by you." See, no, Jinan Guanliu guest restaurant, upstairs private room. ”
Gong Ming got up and said with a smile, "The old man is really divine, how can he be so good, let's hear it." Before the words fell, Gong Ming wanted to snatch the porcelain vase.
Unexpectedly, the old man was faster, opened his mouth and spit out a silk, rolled up the porcelain bottle with a "beep" and took it back, and with a flick of his right hand, the bottle was already in his hand.
Everyone saw a flower in front of them, and it was too late to make a move, they were all surprised, and they couldn't figure out the origin of this person. That's too much to think about.
Ren Tianqi said with a smile: "Then why hasn't the old man made a move all the way, look at your skills like this, it won't be a chance to take advantage of it, right?"
The old man smiled, "That's right." My old man has never returned empty-handed, and it's not a piece of cake to tease you. But in this world, there must be a rule, a charter, and a way for everything. A thief has the rules of a thief, an official has the way of an official, a thief is not a thief if he has no rules, and an official has no way to become a bandit. My old man has always been a thief and a thief, and he wants to be less and not greedy. I think my old man doesn't want to rob the rich and help the poor, win a false name, and don't want to make a fortune, just three meals a lot, and don't eat and sleep in the open. ”
A little red arched his hand, and said with a smile: "The old man is bright and fair, and he didn't take advantage of the fire to rob, so he admires it." Little San, go to the front to get some wine and food to pay tribute to the old man. ”
Gong Ming went by himself.
The old man smiled and said: "What, take advantage of the fire to rob?" In the past, if I hadn't shown up to scare away the person who shouted to catch the thief, I wouldn't have known whether it would be a curse or a blessing; now I said that if I hadn't appeared first to scare away the birdmen and take away their incense, I'm afraid that the scholars with thousands of hands would have been recruited; moreover, if it weren't for the old man and I being lazy and unable to separate ourselves, and seeing that the girls were in trouble, I was busy walking around the room to attract the great monk Lu to get there, and several of Ren Ye's relatives would have been shocked at this moment. "A little red Ren Tianqi was shocked, the praying mantis catches cicadas, the yellow finch is behind, and his own people only care about going to Fengxue Temple, but here they have been robbed by others, who can predict who will gain or lose, and they are busy thanking each other.
The old man waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "Don't be so hypocritical, let's call the big monk outside the door to come in, what kind of body is sneaky and sneaky." ”
The old man had already seen the great monk hiding outside the door.
This old man not only has sharp eyes, but also a mouth that can be fanned.
Lu Qian hurriedly pushed the door in, closed the door, and nodded to everyone.
Lu Qian said with a smile: "Dare to ask the old man's name? ”
The old man shook his head and said with a smile: "Countrymen, the name is very cheap, don't say it." Don't thank me. We helped you and others to retreat from the enemy, it was not a white gang, and the old man took a fancy to the string of Buddhist beads in the cage. ”
Everyone was shocked again, and suddenly felt tightness in their chests, and wanted to get up to check the county lord's dowry to find out, but they were afraid that the ghost would fall into the trap of the comer, so they were hesitating to come and go, not knowing whether what the old man said was true or false.
Ren Tianqi said with a smile: "The old man and we have shared weal and autumn all the way, and this time we have helped many times. If there is really something in the cage that the old man loves, it doesn't hurt to take it yourself. ”
The old man shook his hand and smiled: "Definitely." The old man has never liked to owe favors to others, but now he says that he will help each other, but to repay you for your feelings of accommodation; and seeing that the second master Ren and a few people are self-disciplined and self-disciplined, how can the little old man get this treasure in vain!"
Ren Tianqi smiled: "The old man has something to say, but please tell me." ”
The old man said with a smile: "The old man is really a habitual thief, he has walked the rivers and lakes for nearly 50 years, read countless people, and the gambling games he has won should be countless, and the winners and losers have their own merits." Let's make another bet: if our old man can steal the ring from the thousand-handed scholar in a day, then our old man will get the string of white feather goose egg jade Buddha beads; How?"
Everyone looked at a ring on a red hand, a turquoise gemstone ring.
Everyone is relieved, in front of them is a master of the world, and his skills are probably beyond the reach of everyone, but this person has a playful and troublesome heart, which has never been heard of in the rivers and lakes, I really don't know what kind of master this is. Everyone was amazed.
A little red looked up at Ren Tianqi.
Ren Tianqi nodded and said with a smile: "Cheng, then let us open our eyes and see the old man's magic skills." ”
The old man smiled: "So it's decided?"
Ren Tianqi smiled: "It's decided!"
The old man exclaimed: "Okay, bold in words and deeds, and light on money, he said that if he is less famous and less profitable, he will inevitably become a great weapon." ”
Ren Tianqi smiled: "My husband can still measure words and tell fortunes?"
The old man smiled and said: "I can't talk about word and fortune telling, let's go south and north, what kind of people have never been seen! It's just that the old man sees that your skills are a little chaotic and a little mysterious, but why is this?"
Ren Tianqi said with a smile: "My husband really has good eyesight! I am indeed studying under many seniors, greedy and diligent, and not proficient in learning." "Ren Tianqi really can't tell when this strange old man will see his skills, in short, there are many suspicious things on this old man.
The old man nodded and said with a smile: "I see. Young man, you have such a handsome light skill, old Hank seems to be familiar. Good, good, good, young people will have a great future!"
Gong Ming pushed the door in, serving wine and food in his hand.
Everyone hurriedly sat down and was about to have a drink, when Mr. Hua broke in outside the door, and he staggered with the smell of alcohol.
