The pawnshop that is skinned alive is called "Liyuan Pawnshop".

Liyuan pawnshop is opposite Mai Laoguang roast shop.

Now that Mak Laoguang's signboard has been removed, several people are painting the storefront.

Thinking of Mai Laoguang, Guo Dalu and Yan Qi couldn't help but have a lot of emotion in their hearts.

After all, they had a lot of happy times here.

They are not sentimental people, but they are often easily moved by many things.

At the door of Liyuan pawnshop, a carriage was parked.

The door of the pawnshop has not yet opened, and it seems that it is not ready to do business today.

Guo Dalu and Yan Qi exchanged glances, and as soon as they walked through the alley next to them, they saw live skinning and shrunken their heads coming out of the small door, their eyes looking around sneakily, and they were holding a burden tightly in their arms. Seeing that there was no one around, he immediately jumped into the carriage.

The doors of the carriage were immediately shut, and even the curtains of the windows were lowered.

An old woman slowly walked out of the pawnshop, carrying a bucket of garbage.

Of course Guo Dalu recognized this old woman, she was not a wife who was skinned alive, but just cooked for him. Because she is too old, she is not even paid a penny except for eating, but when she is asked to do things, he treats her as a young man.

Guo Dalu often felt strange how this old woman was willing to do it for live skinning.

Doing things for people like skinning alive, if there are three long and two short, maybe there is not even a coffin.

I only heard the live skinning in the car and said loudly: "Close the door, don't let anyone in, I'll be back tomorrow morning." ”

So with a whip of the chariot, the carriage went off the road.

Guo Dalu and Yan Qi suddenly rushed out of the alley, one on each side, and jumped into the wheel.

The window opened immediately, and he poked his head out of the skin alive and looked surprised, and when he saw them, he was even more surprised, and said, "What do you want to do?"

Guo Dalu smiled: "It's nothing, I just want to take your hitchhike to the city." ”

Skinning alive immediately shook his head, and said, "No, I said that I wouldn't take this car." ”

Guo Dalu smiled and said: "If it doesn't work, it has to be done, since we have already gotten in the car, can you still push us down?"

Yan Qi also smiled: "Anyway, you originally wanted to ask us to accompany you on a trip." ”

Skinned alive and said, "I'm not looking for your ......"

He seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately shut his mouth.

Yan Qidao: "It's not us, have you changed your mind?"

Skinning his face was already a little pale, and he suddenly smiled again: "You can take a ride, but you have to pay for the car." The car money is a total of three coins of silver, just one penny per person. ”

As soon as he got the silver in his left hand, he opened the car door with his right hand.

There is also a benefit to skinning such a person alive, as long as you have money for him, he can always make you feel that every penny is not unjustly spent.

He even gave up two of the better seats.

Guo Dalu had already gotten into the car, and he began to make other ideas.

Skinning alive still clung to the burden tightly in his hands.

Guo Dalu suddenly said: "Yan Qi, shall we make a bet?"

Yan Qidao: "Okay, what are you betting on?"

Guo Dalu said: "I bet there is a mouse in his baggage, do you believe it or not?"

Yan Qi said: "I don't believe it." ”

Guo Dalu said: "Okay, I'll bet ten taels of silver with you." ”

Peeling alive suddenly smiled again, and said, "You don't have to gamble, I know you just want to see my burden, don't you?"

Guo Dalu said: "It seems to mean a little bit like this." ”

Peeled alive and said: "If you want to see it, you can take a look at ten taels of silver." ”

Guo Dalu really didn't expect him to agree so easily, he originally thought that there must be something unsightly in this baggage.

As soon as the left hand got the silver in the live skinning, the right hand immediately unburdened him.

Inside the baggage were nothing more than a few old clothes.

Guo Dalu looked at Yan Qi, Yan Qi looked at Guo Dalu, and the two of them only smiled bitterly.

Peeling alive smiled: "You now think that these ten taels of silver have been spent too unjustly, right? It's a pity that you can't take it back now." ”

With a smug smile on his face, he was about to tie up his baggage.

Yan Qi suddenly said, "There is a piece of clothing in this baggage that seems to be Lin Taiping's, isn't it?"

Peeling alive coughed dryly twice, and said, "It seems so, he should have given it to me anyway." ”

Yan Qidao: "When the ticket hasn't expired yet, he can redeem it at any time, how can you take it away?"

Skinning alive gradually became a little unable to laugh, and said: "When he wants to redeem it, I will naturally have clothes for him." ”

Guo Dalu said: "How much silver did he make for this dress?"

Peeling alive said: "One or two five dollars." ”

Guo Dalu said: "Okay, I'll redeem him now." ”

Peeling alive said, "No." ”

Guo Dalu said: "It's not okay if you have money?"

Peeling alive said: "If you have money, you have to have a pawn ticket, this is the rule of opening a pawnshop, have you brought a pawn ticket?"

Guo Dalu looked at Yan Qi again, and both of them stopped talking, but their hearts were even more strange.

What are you doing with skinning Lin Taiping's clothes in the city?

Although the material of this dress was good, it was very old, why should he hold it tightly as if it were a treasure.

As soon as the carriage entered the city, he skinned him alive and said, "The land has arrived, so get out of the carriage." ”

Yan Qi said: "Don't you want us to go shopping with you?"

Peeling alive said: "Now there is no need for it, the biological child is not as good as the money at hand, it is always better to save one if you can save one." ”

Yan Qi said: "What if we are willing to be free?"

Live Peel smiled: "It's not okay to be free, as long as the business of cash transaction is a reliable business, free things are always a bit troublesome." ”

Yan Qi sighed and said, "Then let's get out of the car." ”

Skinned alive and said: "Don't send it, don't send it." ”

As soon as Yan Qi and the others got out of the car, he immediately "slammed" the car door.

Guo Dalu watched the carriage move forward, sighed, and said, "This person is really cunning, I really can't see what the hell he is doing?"

Yan Qi groaned and said, "He just said that he missed his mouth and said that it wasn't us who he was looking for, did you hear that?"

Guo Dalu nodded.

Yan Qidao: "Could it be that what he is looking for is only Lin Taiping alone, and we are just foils?"

Guo Dalu said: "What is he looking for Lin Taiping for?"

Yan Qidao: "I always feel that Lin Taiping seems to have a secret. ”

Guo Dalu pondered for a long time, and suddenly said, "Do you think he will disguise himself as a man?"

Yan Qi glared at him and said, "I think you're just afraid that you've heard too much about books, how can there be such a new thing in the world?"

Guo Dalu stopped talking.

It wasn't until the carriage turned the street that the two suddenly quickened their pace at the same time and chased after them.

They still won't give up.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of a large inn.

Isn't it strange that such a person is willing to live in this kind of inn.

Fortunately, it was already dark by this time. Winter evenings always come very early.

They went around the back of the inn and swept through the wall.

No one will be unlucky forever, and this time the luck was particularly good, as soon as I landed on the treetops, I saw a row of rooms across the courtyard behind the live skinned people.

It's still very cold, and there is no human figure in the yard.

They swept past the treetops, and in only three or five of them had swept up the roofs of the row of wings.

Both of them suddenly found that each other's light skills were good, as if they were born to do this kind of thing.

Both of them made up their minds in their hearts, and they must ask each other how they practiced this light skill in the future.

They both seemed to suddenly want to know each other's secrets.

There are also icicles on the eaves, and the windows are naturally closed tightly.

Luckily, there was a fire in the house, so the small window above had to be opened to let in some air.

Looking through this small window, I could see the situation in the room clearly.

In addition to the live skinning, there were two other people in the room, who were very richly dressed and had very big faces, and their faces were gloomy, as if the people of the whole world owed them money and had not paid it.

Yan Qi could see at a glance that these two people were not only not weak in martial arts, but also must be old Jianghu, and one of them had a long scar on his face, which made him look even more terrifying.

The other man had no scars on his face, but his arm was broken, and an empty sleeve was tied to his belt, which had a scimitar stuck diagonally.

This kind of scimitar is rare in the rivers and lakes, and people who only have one arm left can still use this kind of scimitar, and there are obviously two hits under their hands.

Moreover, if it weren't for the fact that people are often born and die, they would not have such serious injuries on their bodies.

People who are often born and die can still live until now, and the pie can still be so big, it must not be easy to mess with, Guo Dalu can't figure out how he can have a deal with this kind of person if he is skinned alive.

Skinning alive has untied the burden, picked out Lin Taiping's clothes, and sent them to the table in front of the two of them, with a smug expression on his face, as if he was offering treasure.

What kind of treasure is Lin Taiping's ragged clothes?

The scarred man picked up his clothes, looked at them carefully, and handed them to the one-armed man.

When he was flipping through his clothes, Guo Dalu also saw that there seemed to be something embroidered on the lining of the corner of the clothes, but he couldn't see clearly whether it was a word or a flower?

The one-armed man also turned the corner of the coat and looked at it, nodded slowly, and said, "Yes, it's his clothes." ”

Peeling alive smiled: "Of course it can't be wrong, doing business has always been reliable." ”

The one-armed man: "Where are his people?"

Skinning alive did not speak, but stretched out his hand.

One-armed man: "You want it now?"

Live Peel smiled: "The people who open the pawnshop are all spot traders, and the two of you must know it." ”

The one-armed man said coldly: "Okay, give it to him." ”

The scarred man immediately lifted a burden from underneath and put it on the table with a "bang".

What a heavy baggage.

"There is only one thing that can make a live skin and post five hundred taels of silver, and that is to earn five thousand taels of silver. ”

Yan Qi's words were obviously not wrong, and the silver in the baggage was at least five thousand taels.

Guo Dalu glanced at Yan Qi, and finally understood in his heart.

These two people must be looking for Lin Taiping, and they are looking for it in a hurry, and they did not hesitate to offer a reward of 5,000 taels of silver.

Skinning alive had already known about it, but when they saw Lin Taiping's clothes, they found that Lin Taiping was the person they were looking for.

Therefore, he asked Lin Taiping to accompany him to the city for a walk, so that Lin Taiping could be handed over to these two people in person;

But what did Lin Taiping do that was worth spending so much money on him?

As soon as he saw the silver, he suddenly became so cute that he smiled so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes.

The scar man said, "You can always tell where he is now, right?"

No matter what Lin Taiping did, since he wanted to hide from these two people, he couldn't let these two people find him.

Guo Dalu was ready to rush in through the window.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the smile on his face suddenly froze.

His eyes were staring straight at the door, his mouth wide open, but he couldn't speak, his expression was as if he had suddenly been stuffed with mud.

Guo Dalu followed his gaze and was immediately taken aback.

I don't know when a person walked in at the door.

This person was just an ordinary old woman, and there was nothing surprising about her, but Guo Dalu never dreamed that he would see her here and now.

He obviously saw her standing at the door of Liyuan Pawnshop with a bucket of garbage just now.

Then they came here in a carriage, and did not stop all the way, how did this old woman come here, did she fly here?

Skinning alive was more like seeing a ghost, and snorted, "You...... What are you doing here?"

The old woman walked in slowly, shaking her head, and sighed, "Your time to take the medicine has come, why do you always forget it?" ”

Peel the lid alive and take the bowl, only to hear the lid "clucking" on the bowl.

Not only were his hands trembling, but even cold sweat was pouring out.

The one-armed man and the scarred man still had no expression on their faces, and they had been looking at the old woman coldly, and at this moment, they suddenly shot at the same time, and two black lights flew out of the bowl.

None of them are slow.

As soon as the black light flew in front of the old woman, it suddenly disappeared.

The old woman didn't even move.

The scarred man's face also changed a little.

The one-armed man was still expressionless, and sneered: "I didn't expect Your Excellency to be a master, okay, great." ”

The old woman suddenly smiled and said, "It's not good, it's not good at all." ”

One-armed man: "What's so bad?"

The old woman said, "What's the good thing? When you meet me, you're going to be unlucky, so what's the good thing?"

Huo Ran, the one-armed man, stood up and said sharply: "Who are you, dare to meddle with our affairs?"

The old woman said, "Who cares about your business? Your affairs are not worthy of me, and I don't care if you ask me to take care of them, and I will not take care of them when you kneel down and beg me." ”

When the old woman speaks, she is always a little nagging.

The one-armed man: "So what are you doing here?"

The old woman said, "I'm here to ask him for medicine." Eat quickly, it's time to go to bed after taking the medicine. ”

Peeling the skin alive with a sad face, pinching his nose and taking the medicine.

The old woman said, "Okay, go back to sleep." ”

She was like pulling her son, pulling and skinning alive and going out.

Suddenly, the sword flashed, and the one-armed man was already flying in the air, and a snow-bright scimitar slashed down on the head.

Those who dare to volley shots are naturally not weak in knife skills.

But the sword flashed and disappeared.

A snow-bright scimitar suddenly broke into two, and the "dang" one fell to the ground.

Fall next to the one-armed man.

The one-armed man did not know why, but he knelt on the ground, kneeling in front of the old woman, sweating profusely, as if he tried to stand up, but he could not stand up with all his strength.

The old woman sighed and muttered, "I said a long time ago, even if you kneel down and beg me, I don't care, this person didn't hear it, is his ear deafer than mine?"

She chattered and staggered out.

Skinned alive obediently followed, not even daring to come out of the atmosphere.

The scarred man was also sweating profusely, and suddenly said, "Senior, please wait." ”

The old woman said, "What are you waiting for?

Scar Dahan said: "Since the seniors have reached out to take care of this matter, there is nothing to say in the next, I just hope that the seniors can leave a name, and I can explain to the master when I go back in the lower class." ”

The old woman said, "You want to ask my name?"

The scar man said, "I was trying to ask for advice." ”

The old woman said, "You don't deserve to know my name, and you won't know if I say it." ”

Suddenly, she continued, "But you can go back and tell your master, that an old friend advised him that children are pitiful, and that it is better not to push them too hard, otherwise even others will not be able to get used to them." ”

She slowly walked out the door.

The scarred man immediately chased him out and chased him to the door, as if he wanted to ask her something.

But there was not even a figure outside the door, and the old woman and the live skinned were suddenly gone.

This old woman who cooks rice turned out to be a top master, and her martial arts skills were so high that others couldn't even dream of it.

No wonder the golden lion and the stick went to the pawnshop that day to search it, and when they came back with such respect, they either suffered from the old woman's dumb loss, or they had already seen who she was.

Guo Dalu and Yan Qi finally understood now.

But they couldn't figure it out even more, and the two of them glanced at each other and swept backwards at the same time.

There is a tree in the back, a big tree.

There are no leaves on the trees, only snow.

Yan Qi had no choice but to squat on the tree, but Guo Dalu sat down, and then jumped up as if he had been stabbed.

The snow was as cold as a knife.

Yan Qi sighed, shook his head and said, "When you sit down, don't you never look at what's under your buttocks?"

Guo Dalu smiled bitterly: "I didn't pay attention, I was thinking about something." ”

The branches were very thick, and he also squatted down beside Yan Qi, and said, "I'm thinking about that old woman, she is obviously a great martial arts master, why should she be an old mother in a pawnshop that is skinned alive?"

Yan Qi groaned and said, "Maybe she is also like Feng Qiwu, hiding from others' tracking. ”

Guo Dalu said: "This reason seems to be sufficient at first glance, but if you think about it carefully, there are many places that don't make sense. ”

Yan Qidao: "Oh?"

Guo Dalu said: "The world is so big, there are many places where you can avoid the tracking of others, especially a master like her, why should she be someone else's mother, listen to other people's commands, and be angry with others?"

He shook his head, and continued: "Even if she wants to be someone's mother, she should find a decent person and a decent place, why did she choose to skin her alive?"

Yan Qidao: "Can't you figure it out?"

Guo Dalu said: "I really can't figure it out. ”

Yan Qidao: "If you can't figure it out, of course others won't be able to figure it out." ”

Guo Dalu smiled and said, "If even I can't think of it, I'm afraid that there are very few people who can figure it out." ”

Yan Qi said: "Maybe she just wants people to not figure it out?"

Guo Dalu said: "But there are still many things that can't be figured out. ”

Yan Qi said: "You say come and listen." ”

Guo Dalu said: "Looking at her martial arts, I am afraid that few people in the world can be her opponent." ”

Yan Qi also sighed and said, "Her martial arts are indeed very high, not only have I seen people with such high martial arts, I have never even heard of them." ”

Guo Dalu said: "So I don't think she needs to be afraid of others at all, and she doesn't need to hide at all." ”

Yan Qidao: "Don't forget, there are more strong players in the strong, and there is a mountain high." ”

Guo Dalu said: "This is just an old saying. ”

Yan Qidao: "Old-fashioned words are often the most reasonable words, and the older you are, the more reasonable they are." ”
