Not far from Guihe Tower, there is another restaurant called Zhaocai Pavilion. The name is very tacky, but the food and wine are as good as any other restaurant.
On the second floor, in a private room facing the main street, Lu Hanjiang and two girls were feasting.
Yongle didn't eat much, and Shangluo's appetite had long been filled with all kinds of snacks, so the only one who could really enjoy this table of delicacies was Lu Hanjiang himself.
Sure enough, someone is here to invite you to dinner, and the food tastes delicious.
Lu Hanjiang was concentrating on the food, while Shangluo was clinging to the window sill expectantly, looking straight in the direction of Guihe Tower, and kept mumbling why she wasn't here yet.
They were entrusted by Gongsun Cheng to come here specifically to besiege the little demon girl Qu Lianqin. In the plan formulated by Chi Cangping, Lu Hanjiang, the leader of the Beggar Clan, existed as the last trump card.
To put it simply, if Chi Cangping, Gongsun Cheng and a group of Jianghu people can capture Qu Lianqin, then everyone will be happy. If they fail to capture Qu Lianqin, and let the other party run away, then they will use all their strength to drive the demon girl towards the Zhaocai Pavilion. , Lu Hanjiang was responsible for blocking the road.
Furthermore, if Qu Lianqin's ability is far beyond their imagination, then they will flee in the direction of Zhaocai Pavilion, attracting the other party to chase them, and finally catch the turtle in the jar.
So no matter what the final outcome is, Lu Hanjiang plays a pivotal role this time. Young Master Gongsun has paid for it these days, allowing him to dine and eat in the Zhaocai Pavilion every day.
"Xiao Lu, come and see, something seems to have happened over there!"
Shangluo's tone showed a bit of excitement as if watching the excitement was not too big a deal. Lu Hanjiang looked in the direction pointed by the other party. There were crowds of people outside Guihe Tower. It seemed that a big opera was being performed inside. It seemed that Qu Lianqin had taken action.
"Well, it seems we can prepare to take action."
Lu Hanjiang put down the elbow in his hand without hesitation. The wording in his words made Princess Yongle look over curiously: "'We'? Is A Luo going too?"
Shangluo was also stunned for a moment, and then immediately became happy, patting her chest and promising: "Xiao Lu, don't worry and leave it to me!"
"Well, I feel relieved that you are here." Lu Hanjiang said meaningfully.
It is said that cannibalism is short-tongued and soft-handed, and reciprocity has been a fine tradition since ancient times, but when it came to Lu Hanjiang, it was a bit out of character.
He has never had any psychological burden when doing things like eating and drinking for free. As a true warrior, Lu Hanjiang has always had a fearless courage. Anyway, no matter how you say it, there is nothing, so he wants to use universal moral concepts. It is absolutely impossible to restrain him.
"Let's go, just think of it as a walk after dinner."
Lu Hanjiang pointed at the ceiling. Before he finished speaking, Shangluo had already climbed up through the window. After hesitating again, he turned around and went out to find a ladder.
Princess Yongle would naturally not be able to get involved in things like going to the house to unveil the tiles, so she would stay in the elegant room, where the secret brocade guards could protect her more properly.
Then, when Shangluo and Lu Hanjiang went up to the roof one after another, and were looking in the direction of Guihe Tower, suddenly a black shadow quickly struck them.
The shadow passed quickly through the moonlight, almost like a black lightning. It was not until he drew his sword that a flash of light suddenly appeared in the night sky.
This person was Chai Lianshan. During the day, after he had prepared all the dry food and other things for the road, he returned to the inn and found that Qu Lianqin was missing again.
He was angry and helpless, but he still wanted to find this person. He was determined not to be soft-hearted this time and let this little girl lead the way.
Unfortunately, he searched the whole city and found no trace of the other party. Just when he was wondering whether Qu Lianqin had left the medical city, he discovered the movement in Guihe Tower.
Among the people on the street going to Guihe Tower to watch the excitement, from time to time there was a discussion about the little demon girl. There is no doubt that the girl making the noise in the building at the moment must be that troublesome girl.
Just when Chai Lianshan was about to go over and take the person away, he accidentally discovered two more figures on the roof of the Zhaocai Pavilion. When he took a closer look, he saw that the young man was actually carrying a dog-beating stick.
This is Lu Shiqi, the leader of the Beggar Clan!
After seeing the identity of the other party, Chai Lianshan immediately thought of a lot. The arrangement tonight was probably a game against Qu Lianqin. Lu Qiqi appeared here, and it was definitely not for watching the fun. It was most likely for him. Interception or pursuit.
Chai Lianshan thought for a while and decided to break the situation. Since the opponent was a back-up man who was ambushing him, he took the first step and broke the ambush.
Chai Lianshan had a clear idea. The leader of the Beggar Clan rarely made any moves in front of others. It was rumored that he had extremely high qinggong skills and had once defeated Huo Tianya of the Sword-making Villa. He was probably also a master. If he couldn't defeat him, he would divert the opponent away, which could be regarded as a substitute. Qu Lianqin removes obstacles.
With this thought in mind, Chai Lianshan raised his ten stamina and flew through the night, then thrust his sword straight at Lu Hanjiang's back.
Seemingly feeling something, Shangluo turned her head. In a daze, she seemed to see Lu Hanjiang raising his feet, and heard a subtle sound of his sleeves shaking. The night under the moonlight was still quiet.
"Huh?" Shangluo looked behind Lu Hanjiang, and the emptiness in front of her eyes made her blink hard in confusion: "Xiao Lu, was there something there just now?"
Lu Hanjiang bent down and patted his trouser legs, and said nonchalantly: "I don't know, it's probably bugs or something. It's April now, summer is coming soon, it's normal."
He just thought that the other party was a newcomer who came out of nowhere and wanted to gain fame, so he didn't take it to heart.
There are many people in the world who like to challenge masters to gain fame. As the challenger, if they lose, they will naturally give up their reputation obediently. There is nothing to say. If they win, they will generously encourage the opponent as a senior. , generally speaking, neither side will make a heavy move.
This is one of the unwritten rules of the world, and it is also one of the ways for many masters of the world to earn reputation. Since Lu Hanjiang took office as the leader of the Beggar Clan, he has met many such people, and he usually just gave up.
If the other party came uninvited, he would let his disciples deal with it, and whether his hands or feet should be amputated, it would depend on fate. If the other party came uninvited, then he would be a good person and do it to the end, and send the other party to a blissful life.
This is also one of the reasons why the Beggar Clan is so disliked by people now. Since Lu Hanjiang took over as the leader of the Clan, he has gone against the rules of the world in almost everything and does not follow any routine at all, which makes everyone dislike him.
Of course, Shangluo didn't know these things clearly. She just nodded in understanding, and then stopped worrying about the matter.
While the two were talking, in the dark street below, Chai Lianshan's body suddenly fell to the ground. This was an inner street on the side not on the main road. There were few people coming and going, so no one noticed his miserable condition for the time being. .
He saw Chai Lianshan's black robe soaked in blood. He reluctantly turned over and looked at his bloody abdomen. There was a big hole opened by the opponent's kick, and blood was gushing out.
"How is that possible? What kind of martial arts is this?"
Chai Lianshan's consciousness had already fallen into a dying state. Lu Hanjiang's kick not only opened an opening in his stomach, but also shattered most of his internal organs. At this moment, even the gods came to the world and were unable to do anything to his injuries.
"Miss, be careful"
This seemed to be Chai Lianshan's last obsession. After saying this, he stared blankly at the brightly lit Guihe Tower in the distance, his aura rapidly declining until he died.
