The city of Xiangfan is prosperous and beautiful, but not as gloomy as the legend says. Rather than saying it is a ghost city ruled by Emperor Fengdu, it is more like a beautiful place on earth. The streets are lined with the fragrance of Luo Qi and the Zhumen Painting Pavilion. If you enter the city for the first time, you will definitely be dazzled by it. It is definitely not comparable to Lingzhou City, which Xu Fengnian boasts of being the best city in the world.
There is a lake in the city, which is regarded as a wonder. Because a certain literary giant and official in the previous dynasty wrote "The Story of Shouyang Lake Gate", it is not only loved by literati, but also a favorite place of some local gangsters in the city. After all, there is a different kind of satisfaction in shitting and peeing in this place where literati recite poems and compose the right scenery, which is probably only worse than going to that land of warblers and swallows and ordering a few Yangzhou skinny horses.
There is an inn next to Shouyang Lake. It is close to the water, has a beautiful scenery, and has a large number of authentic works of romantic poets. Even though it is a gold-selling cave, it is still loved by dignitaries. It can be said that there are real scholars who talk and laugh, and there are no idlers. This place is probably a place where noble people come and go. In the open space in front of the inn, there will always be a competition to recruit brides every once in a while.
At this time, next to the banner with large characters for a martial arts competition to recruit a bride, a woman in red and a broad-faced man were having a lively sword fight.
Sitting next to the window on the second floor of the inn, Qingniao had no intention of looking at the lively scenery outside. He just waited beside the young master to pour him wine. Seeing the young master frowning slightly, she said with relief: "Xiangfan City is not big, Wang Mingyin can always find him. Maybe Wang Mingyin will come to the young master himself after getting the news."
After entering the city, she went to more than a dozen places with the young master's inns, including ruffians and scoundrels, but she could not find Wang Mingyin, the eleventh master in the world.
According to the young master, Wang Mingyin's half-brother is Wang Yangming, the Ming general of that country, who defends Xiangfan and refuses to retreat. Before Xiangfan city was destroyed and he died for his country, he gouged out his own eyes and left the words "use these eyes to see the fate of the country of Chu". And Wang Mingyin even swore that he would not allow the Xu family to enter this city again, trapping himself here.
Since Wang Mingyin could not be found in Xiangfan, she thought there was no other reason other than Wang Mingyin himself hiding from the young master.
Jingzhou said "hmm" and said with a smile: "I won't look for it anymore. It doesn't matter if it's one day or two days. If I continue to look for it, the result will be the same. If I don't follow the mountain, it's only right that the mountain comes to me. The blue bird is still considerate, this sentence The young master likes your comforting words very much. The girls in Beiliang Palace say that you are cold-faced and cold-hearted, like a block of ice, which makes people uncomfortable. This is obviously cold-faced and warm-hearted."
"When I get back to Lingzhou City, I will seek justice for you. A group of people will be blind, right? They all say that Hongshu is a sweet and caring person. Could it be that Qingniao is worse? At this time, I think I should thank Xu Xiao. Send you here. There are not many people who can drive a car, cook a meal, and have a good rapport with the young master."
"Who ranked that rouge list? Let's beat him up some other time. It's a blind thing. Only the man with the white fox face is on the list, but there is no heroic blue bird. It's okay not to be on this list!"
The sudden warm words made Qingniao feel ashamed and embarrassed. She couldn't help lowering her head. After a while, she seemed to remember something and whispered: "Sir, the prince just sent a letter asking us if we want to go back to Lingzhou?" It is said that the identity of the young master will be known to someone sooner or later. In Xiangfan City, it is inevitable that he will not be discovered by others..."
Jingzhou chuckled and said: "So what if Xiangfan is a dragon city and a tiger's den? For Zhao Heng, compared with the chair in Jinluan Hall, what happened on Spring God Lake is nothing. At any rate, he almost had to sit on it. The person on the dragon's throne has fallen into Xiangfan in recent years. Even if he has not suppressed his illness, he is still close to him. How can he be willing to be trapped in Qingzhou? Besides, whether he can be free to take action at this time is still two questions, Xu Xiao He and Gu Jiantang are not lamps with leftover oil."
When it comes to Dazhu Kingdom, Qingniao doesn't dare to answer any more questions.
Jingzhou glanced at her and saw that she was hesitant to speak. He felt very funny. After looking at the beauty with a different face for a while, he said softly: "You don't have to worry. Cao Changqing entered the palace twice, but... I heard that he was dead? If something really happens, you and Bai Hu'er will leave first, at worst I will just change my clothes."
Qingniao's heart was warm, but she didn't know how to answer the call. Fortunately, there was a commotion outside not long after, and she pretended to be calm and looked outside.
"Yes." Jing Zhou glanced outside, quite surprised.
Qingniao's originally calm face was suddenly full of solemnity. Thinking that he was still young again, he stood up and asked, "What's wrong, Master?"
"That's an interesting person. Look at those who want to hug a beautiful woman, whether it's a gray-haired old man or an overindulgent young man, they all jump up in a graceful way, lest others don't know that they are masters. Only He walked up."
"No matter how good your kung fu is, you have to respect your face in the arena. Otherwise, why would those heroes who just came out of the arena have to tread water even though they can take a boat?" Jing Zhou pointed outwards at the knights who were stepping up to the stage of martial arts contests to recruit brides. .
If he hadn't guessed wrong, the man holding a wooden sword, wearing a dirty coarse shirt, and with messy hair was Wen Sheng, who was so poor that he couldn't even jingle. If other people are poor, they at least have a copper coin. This guy, let alone a copper coin, can only eat two meals in three days.
The world is his home, the world is his mat and quilt, and the only decorations on his body are a broken wine gourd and a wooden sword. Even the beggar is afraid when he sees this poor appearance. He is probably talking about this boy.
Now that we can meet Wen Hua, Xiangfan City will be interesting. Maybe Huang Sanjia, who has all the world's affairs, is also making plans in Fireworks Alley at this time.
Qingniao looked at it for a moment and felt that the man standing on the stage touching his torn crotch had nothing special except that he was poor. He probably didn't have a few pennies in total for that outfit.
Seeing Qingniao's confusion, Jingzhou explained: "This kid will be a big figure in the future. At least few people can match his shame."
At this time, there was a burst of laughter downstairs, and even the woman who was competing to recruit a son-in-law frowned. The person in front of her could smell the sour smell from a long distance away.
There was even a person with a stomach similar to that of Maitreya Buddha. He said, "Go, go, go, a broken wooden sword wants to come up and snatch people from us? Why don't you urinate and show off your bear look? A toad still wants to Eat swan meat and go back to where it came from!"
The girl who competed in martial arts felt that this man was really good at scolding her. She was a girl, and such curse words were not suitable for her to say. It was true that she competed in martial arts to recruit a bride, but she was not trying to recruit such a weakling. When encountering such a person, she would feel like her sleeves would be dirty even if she hit him.
The ranger who was keen on buttoning his crotch stood in the audience for a long time before he got the chance to come on stage. He would not go down easily. He immediately responded: "What's wrong with the wooden sword? The wooden sword is also a sword! This martial arts competition may have written that you are not allowed to take it. Come up with the wooden sword? Hey, I’ve decided on this martial arts competition, even if the King of Heaven comes, it won’t work!”
The woman standing opposite the ranger on the stage did not hide her disgust for the ranger who came from the countryside. Seeing that this vulgar person who could not be refined had no intention of going down, after thinking about her words for a long time, she coldly He said something coldly that didn't seem to show that the girl didn't know etiquette: "The hand that picks up the crotch is not worthy of holding a sword!"
"God's Coming"
Youxia'er was stunned when he heard this. He didn't care about scolding the audience. He lowered his head and thought about it seriously. Then he stroked the wooden sword in his hand as if he were stroking his lover's face. Just when everyone thought that this guy wanted to show off, Just as he was about to roll off the stage of the contest to recruit a bride with his tail between his legs, the ranger suddenly raised his head and shouted: "What's wrong with touching your crotch? If your butt is itchy, you won't let it be scratched? Who made this rule? A Trojan horse bull dominates the world. The old swordsman Li Chungang doesn’t pick up his crotch anymore? His butt was bitten by a mosquito and he still doesn’t scratch it?”
He has been traveling in the rivers and lakes for many years. Although he has been stealing and cheating, his travels are not in vain. He has also heard about some deeds in the rivers and lakes, such as the two-sleeved green snake Li Jian Shen who once defeated all the heroes in the world, and the one with only With just a peach blossom, he can fight the world's best swordsman, Deng Sword God, to a deadlock.
It's just that although there are many masters in the world, he only admires Li Jian Shen. He heard that Li Jian Shen only hooked his fingers, had white buns, and had a perky buttocks, so he would give her whatever he wanted.
But he couldn't figure out why a master like Deng Jianshen liked to ride a donkey. Isn't it bad to ride a tall horse?
How majestic? How arrogant?
If he becomes famous one day, he will definitely have to ride a few BMWs that are worth a lot of money, preferably Xu Xiaozi, who used to be dog-pawed with him in the fields. What is "big food or big turtle" as he said in his mouth? "Green Elephant" horse.
After listening to a few words, Qingniao felt that the one man scolding dozens of other rangers was a slap in the face to the fat man. Even upstairs, she could see the wanderer's sloppy steps. It was obvious that this man who hadn't washed in the water for countless days was not an expert.
Just because of his mouth, he soon provoked as many people as his hands in the audience. When he came down from the stage after the martial arts competition, he would be beaten to the ground with his teeth?
This guy doesn't seem stupid, so why bother?
"But you think he's asking for trouble?" Jing Zhou asked.
Blue Bird nodded.
"Let's go down and have a look. He is an interesting person. His words are rough but his reasoning is not rough. Didn't Li Chungang just pick a bird out of his nose suddenly?" Jing Zhou got up and walked out of the inn. Although Qing Niao was puzzled, he didn't say anything anymore. asked, just silently following the young master.
As soon as the two of them came downstairs and approached the stage, the ranger was kicked off the stage. At that moment, someone rolled up their sleeves and greeted the ranger in the face with a fist as big as a casserole.
Damn it, you, a person who couldn't even survive two moves at the hands of these ladies, how many times have you eaten up to provoke a group of people in the audience who are destined to leave a big mark in the world?
Will Li Jian Shen, who has been in power for more than fifty years, take out his crotch in public?
Damn that shit!
Li Jianshen can only pick out the little lady's top!
Especially those "heroes" who have swords hanging from their waists and sweat break out from their foreheads after just a few unorganized bastard punches. They even threaten death when they move their hands. If I don't beat you to a semi-crippling state, how can I be worthy of it? Our swordsman’s name?
As a swordsman, the book says that one must be sincere to the sword, and the body must be sincere to the sword. When taking the sword, you must burn incense and bathe!
The ranger curled up, held the wooden sword in his arms, and let his fists and feet fall on him.
Today, he can learn two moves from others and receive this beating. From the perspective of a man who is bound to be as famous as Li Jian Shen, it is worth it!
If he could learn two tricks from being beaten, he would be happy to be beaten every day!
"Forget it, if we continue to fight, someone will be killed." A small but unmistakable voice echoed in the ears of a group of people who were beating the rangers.
Everyone paused for a moment and turned around to see which turtle son dared to say such outrageous words.
Holding a jade fan, hanging beautiful jade from his waist, and wearing purple clothes, he is another second-generation ancestor!
The person who originally wanted to curse a few words suddenly swallowed the words on his lips.
Recently, when it comes to who should not be messed with in Xiangfan City, it must be these young men in purple clothes!
Each of these people has terrifying power behind them. Which one does not have a good ancestor, and which one is not a person who can walk sideways on the street?
Ever since the purple-clothed Dragon King showed his power on Spring God Lake, the trend of wearing purple clothes has become more and more popular. I heard that the dandies in the neighboring states have to get one or two of the red robes in their families. Wearing purple clothes, the price of this fine purple clothes was tripled in just a few days by these young men who didn't know what money was.
Some scholars even wrote, "Guests with white hair and blue robes, people with golden robes and purple robes." Firstly, they said that one foot of purple robes cost one tael of gold, and secondly, they said that most people like Cao Changqing who like blue robes have gray hair, and this The one wearing purple robe was the young man who spent money like water.
The woman who was standing on the stage and kicking the knight out suddenly felt her heart beat when she saw the purple clothes. At this time, in her heart, she only felt that every step she took, someone would give way to the person who was graceful and graceful, with jade trees facing the wind, like an ordinary figure walking out of a painting.
Although the face is fairer and a little sickly, the pair of sharp eyebrows make the whole face look sharp and angular, not as feminine as those young men who spend all day rouging themselves with the maids in the room.
It's a pity that she stood on the stage and looked at her affectionately, but the aristocratic young man holding a jade fan never even looked at her.
The ranger, who was ready to be beaten half to death, rubbed his face and got up from the ground, secretly cursing that the turtles and bastards who beat him were not human beings. Even Xu Xiaozi, who knew everything about deception and abduction, knew better than to hit someone in the face. reason!
His stomach grumbled several times because of hunger, but he didn't feel embarrassed. He just looked forward. When he saw a man in purple followed by a girl in blue, the first thing you thought of was not that the other party offered help, but that he kept asking for help. Think back to whether you have ever stolen this young man's money.
After thinking about it for a long time, he felt that he had never done it before. After all, the young lady in green clothes was among the top three young ladies he met in the world in terms of appearance. He even remembered the daughter of the owner of the wine shop in Qingcheng Mountain who had no breasts and no butt. If he had met such a beautiful little lady before, he would probably not forget it.
Keeping this kindness in his heart, he hugged Jingzhou's fists in accordance with the etiquette of the world, thanked him, turned around and left, there was nothing he could do, his stomach growled several times, if he didn't go steal a chicken or touch it Dan, who has not yet made a name for himself in the world, this future sword god will probably starve to death first.
"Just leaving like that?" Jingzhou shouted while looking at the clothes with two holes in them.
As soon as he heard this, the Ranger's limping legs suddenly burst out with a frightening energy, and he ran out like a rabbit. He knew that there was nothing good in this world that he would encounter. .
How many of these young men with noses raised as high as the sky would be kind and do good deeds?
"Don't want to eat a meal?" Jingzhou shouted again.
