See the fastest updates
Don't be curious about what Huang Siniang wrote, as she said, Mr. Lan Da of the Twelve Serial Dock expressed his desire to see Diao Xiaosi after receiving her letter.
Unfortunately, he didn't get his way. According to Diao Siye's words, he likes the tone of "waving his hands and going away, hiding his merit and fame". At any time, I don't want Mr. Lan Da to remember him.
So to Mr. Lan Da's disappointment, only Geng Nanyi and Yu Linglong met with him that day.
As for what the three talked about, outsiders don't know. I only knew that after the meeting, Huang Siniang affectionately squeezed Mr. Lan Da's arm and floated away, leaving behind the envious, jealous and hateful Lei Zhenzi and Monk Leng.
Soon, the Twelve Lianwu announced that they would completely withdraw from the grievance conflict between the Huitong Dart Bureau and Hugezhai. But in order to give an explanation to his old friend, Mr. Lan Da still left his right-hand man to help the Tiger Gezhai Duel in his personal name.
Of course, these are all afterwords, that night, including the four dock masters, the thirteen consecutive dock thirty-seven masters, in the night attack of the Hongfu Inn, the ambush was not the opposite, but was made dumplings, which caused a sensation in Bashu Jingxiang.
The next day, Qiu Junyi, the master of the Tianming Sword Pavilion, and Zhao Baichuan, the leader of the Chaotian Gang, successfully arrived in Yunyang Town and joined Chu Lie, Yu Linglong and others.
Last night, they immediately withdrew their camp after receiving the alarm, which immediately disrupted the enemy's deployment.
The people in charge of the rear team of the night raid will be led by You Shiran, the eldest disciple of the ancestor of Yingyang in the North Mountain, from the rivers and lakes of the Bashu Qin and Jin underworlds, about 200 people.
In order to prevent Qiu Junyi and others from converging with Chu Lie, You Shiran immediately led the team to intercept, and hundreds of men and horses on both sides drew a circle at random in the wilderness, and the melee lasted until about four watches, and You Shiran's men and horses left forty or fifty corpses and retreated exhausted.
Qiu Junyi and Zhao Baichuan rectified a little, and then rushed to Yunyang Town non-stop.
At the same time, Geng Nanyi also sent someone to send back the news that their front team was attacked by hundreds of cottage minions personally commanded by Cheng Xianhu, the owner of Huge Village.
As a result, the attack carefully planned by Bu Operator, who was the second golden position in the 12 serial docks of the Yangtze River waterway and known as "heaven is not as good as people's calculations", ended in a defeat on all fronts of Hugezhai.
But everyone knows that if Diao Xiaosi hadn't discovered the abnormality from the clues of the Hongfu Inn first, captured Yi Bai first, and dug out the plan of action of the divination operator from his mouth, what would have happened in last night's battle would have been a different ending.
At that moment, everyone praised Diao Xiaosi, as if he was a rising star in the righteous path of Bashu. But God knows, it's this new star, who was still digging and digging pits and calling the dead brothers brothers and sisters a while ago.
Two days later, the three people of the Huitong Dart Bureau met in Chengkou Town at the foot of Daba Mountain. Chai Shao and Li Xiuning also quietly left on the same day, escorted by a team of disguised businessmen from the Tang Mansion, and returned to Taiyuan through Daba Mountain.
Before leaving, Li Xiuning and Wan'er said goodbye. Although they only got along for a few days, the two have become very good friends, Wan'er gave a bracelet of Buddhist beads under the county lord's palace with red eyes, and Li Xiuning also gave her a jade pendant engraved with the inscription of Tang Guogong.
Chai Shao was much more straightforward, and hugged his fist towards Diao Xiaosi and said, "Come to Taiyuan to drink, I'll please." β
Diao Xiaosi said with a smile: "Taiyuan, right? Don't worry, where you can eat and drink for nothing, I will climb there." β
Chai Shao nodded and smiled, turned over the horse with Li Xiuning, and crossed the mountains and mountains under the escort of the masters of the Guogong Mansion, and gradually went away.
Seeing that Chai Shao and his wife were gone, Wan'er stood there reluctantly and reluctantly stood there looking at it.
Diao Xiaosi stretched out his hand and shook it twice in front of her eyes, and said with a smile: "Don't look at it, Chai Shao is a person with a wife." Instead of looking at him, you might as well look at me twice. β
Wan'er slapped Diao Xiaosi's hand away, and said angrily: "The dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth, and the fourth uncle is still there!"
Diao Xiaosi smiled, and dragged Wan'er's hand back to the temporary meeting hall of the Huitong Dart Bureau in Chengkou Town.
As soon as the two entered the door, they saw Geng Nanyi and others circulating a post. Chu Lie saw Diao Xiaosi enter the hall, so he said, "Little fourth brother, Cheng Xianhu sent someone to send a war book." He asked us to meet at the Half Moon Pavilion tomorrow morning, and each side would only bring ten people with him, but the letter said that you must go. β
Diao Xiaosi sat down in the chair with his ass and counted the newly added people who were obsessed with him. First the two demons of Lancang, then Long Zhaoyuan and Yin Shengyang, two days ago, the chief scoop of the twelve serial docks was added, Mr. Landa, and now the owner of Huge Zhai Dazhai is invited by Xianhu again.
What kind of world is this, why do you want to keep a low profile, and there are always people who blow their horns at themselves?
Yi Bai observed his words on the side, and said: "Fourth master, I estimate that this is a normal meeting, and it is nothing more than the two sides agree on the rules and time of the decisive battle, and there should be no fight." β
His family was sent to Chengkou Town by water in the middle of the night last night, and a large stone hanging finally fell, and he became the new deputy head of the Jiangzhou Branch of the Huitong Dart Bureau with peace of mind.
Zhao Baichuan, the leader of the Chaotian Gang, said: "Let's go together tomorrow, I want to see what tricks Cheng Xianhu can play!"
Yu Linglong said: "Since Cheng Xianhu has put forward the request of ten people to go to the appointment, let's go to ten people, and then arrange for a group of people to meet near the Half Moon Pavilion, so we can be prepared." β
So everyone discussed for a while, and finally decided to go with Geng Nanyi, Long Zaitian, Zhao Baichuan, Qiu Junyi, Yu Linglong, Chu Lie, Geng Shaohua, Diao Xiaosi and two other highly respected Bashu Zhengdao celebrities.
Diao Xiaosi looked at this battle, except for himself, everyone else was a master, even if Cheng Xianhu wanted to play flowers, his stomach was not so good to swallow in one bite. I heard that Yu Hongjiao, the wife of Huge Village, is as beautiful as a flower, and is known as the reputation of "Chaotian Pepper", Diao Xiaosi really wants to see if it fits the .......
The next day, the sky brightened slightly, and Diao Xiaosi, who yawned and was about to go to bed, was dragged out by Chu Lie, got on the mount with drooping eyelids, and went to the Half Moon Pavilion among the crowd.
In front of the Half Moon Pavilion, the big guys dismounted and changed to walking. Diao Xiaosi raised his eyelids and looked ahead, only to see four people sitting in the pavilion, and six other men in strong suits were separated from each other, just ten people.
Everyone walked along the mountain road, and when they approached the Half Moon Pavilion, the six men in strong suits sang in unison: "The head of the Jiangzhou Branch of the Huitong Dart Bureau, Geng Nanyi, the head of the dart, has arrivedββ"
Then he shouted again: "The owner of Wolong Villa, the old man of Tianlong, has arrived-"
In this way, the roll call of ten people one by one without any mistakes was obviously prepared.
According to his qualifications, Diao Xiaosi should have been in the last one, but he insisted on taking care of Old Man Chu, who had a cold and cough in his opinion for the past two days, because of overwork, so he was ranked sixth.
So when he stepped into the Half Moon Pavilion, the six men in strong suits shouted in unison: "Fourth Master Diao has arrived!"
Diao Xiaosi said: "Why do they all have names and numbers, and when they get to Lao Tzu, they are short of catties and shortages?"
He sat down next to Chu Lie in the Half Moon Pavilion, and saw a beautiful woman in red come up to pour tea for everyone, guessing that it was the Chaotian pepper. I heard that Yu Quan, the former master of the three villages of Huge Village, is Chaotian Jiao's eldest brother, so it is no wonder that her face is not good at the moment.
Sitting next to the beautiful woman in red is Cheng Xianhu, the master of Hugezhai Dazhai, this person is actually a black and thin bad old man, and the only shining point of his body is in the center of the thief's eyes. As the so-called old husband and young wife, the old is majestic, the little is delicate, the old cow eats tender grass, and the more grass is eaten, the more it is.
On the other hand, there was a gray-clothed blind man sitting quietly next to Cheng Xianhu, with a sallow face and expressionless wood, holding a black bamboo pole in his hand.
The last person sitting in the pavilion was a man in white in his forties, with broom eyebrows and hooked nose, looking like he felt good about himself, and he looked annoying, it was the eldest disciple of the ancestor of Yingyang in Beibi Mountain.
Seeing that the people of the dart bureau sat down one after another, the corners of your mouth rose and sneered: "What a big battle, worthy of being called the first dart game in Bashu, everywhere you go, there are a bunch of people hugging their martial arts, and a bunch of people scrambling to hug their thighs." β
As soon as these words came out, all the righteous heroes were angry, but they either respected their own identities, or they didn't want to take the lead, and no one did much useless verbal disputes.
Only Diao Xiaosi stopped doing it, anyway, he was used to being a villain, and he would never be embarrassed for the sake of decency, who had ever suffered a loss on his tongue, and immediately said angrily: "Okay, you hanged ghost, the tiger doesn't threaten you, I am a sick cat." Today, if Fourth Master Diao doesn't scold you so bloody that you have a bloody headache and crying, I will surrender myself to accept you as a nephew!"
He also did the same, raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a smiling face: "It's strange, when did someone chase after him and become a sin?" I remember a poor old man surnamed Meng said a thousand years ago: 'There is much help for the righteous, but little help for the unjust'. You have been saving chicken feathers and tossing for a few months, and finally got two or three kittens, and they were scattered by our three sticks in Yunyang Town, which is not only a loss of morality, but also a loss of footing and disappointment!"
He didn't wait for You to be relieved, and he opened his mouth, and said endlessly: "I see that this son is a talented person with two sides, three knives, four feet, five bodies, six impurities, seven pus, eight sides of wind leakage, nine sorrows, ten decays, a hundred holes, thousands of sores, and a life, could it be that he has eaten too many Chaotian peppers, has a distended stomach, abdominal pain, and irregular menstruation, or is the master waiting for you at home to hold your stinky feet, so that your heart is burning and your mouth is bubbling?"
When he said this, Diao Xiaosi held back his strength in order to get it in one go, and it was really a sound of words in his ears, without half a dirty word, but some people were dumbfounded, and some people were smoking, and he scolded Hu Gezhai and Twelve Lianwu with Eagle Yang Ancestor without falling into the sky.
After finishing speaking, Diao Xiaosi took a deep breath, grabbed the teacup and drank it up, sat back on the stone drum bench with great satisfaction, and smiled: "I didn't wake up early, and I didn't have time to think about it in some places, forgive me." β
There was a sudden silence in the Half Moon Pavilion, and the needle drop could be heard. Only then did everyone realize how terrible it was for a person not to sleep well.
