Third watch, the moon is bright.
The western suburbs of Hangzhou are filled with wilderness and dense forests.
A cross-cut road, the wind roared.
Suddenly, with a whistle, seven or eight white figures flew out from the shadows of the trees on both sides of the road and landed lightly on the broken road.
The man in white who landed first laughed and said: "Our young master is too careful and has to worry about any accidents. My third son said that it is so late at night in the wilderness, how can anyone come here and ask for trouble?" .”
A man in white who finally landed said coldly: "Master Ruyi has an order to retreat immediately after the mission is completed, disperse and hide, and wait for his next instruction. I don't want to stay here, retreat!"
After the man finished speaking, he spread out his body and flew towards Hangzhou City. Several other people in white also followed suit and disappeared without a trace after a few ups and downs.
These people come and go suddenly. Are they flying immortals in the sky or evil spirits underground?
The moonlight turned to the west and the wind gradually stopped.
Suddenly, three more figures flew out from the hillside of the hill next to the broken road.
The light skills of these three people were even more astonishing. They flew out from the mountainside, but saw that they only used a little strength among the rocks and trees, and their bodies landed in an open space behind the broken road in the blink of an eye, as if they were riding the wind.
Two women and one man, with fluttering clothes, look like gods descending from the earth.
What these three immortals did next was incredible.
Who would have thought that gods could dig the earth? But what they dug out was not food, but corpses!
Could it be that after death, all living people in this world will be quietly poached by the gods in the sky in the middle of a moonlit night?
…
The waiter at Taoji Inn had just opened the door and was yawning lazily.
His name is Zhao Liu, and his name is as ordinary as his name. The shopkeeper often calls him Xiao Liuzi.
Xiaoliuzi got up later than usual today. Yesterday, the shopkeeper paid him last month's salary. In the evening, he went to Cuiyu Building to find Xiaocui.
Xiaocui is his sweetheart, and Cuiyulou is a brothel. They have made an agreement with the madam to redeem Xiaocui when they save two hundred taels of silver.
In fact, both of them knew in their hearts that he would never be able to save enough money to redeem Xiaocui. He had been working as a waiter at Tao Ji Inn for five years, and he would not have a few taels of silver left at the end of each year.
Two miserable people were just seeking comfort from each other.
No matter how hard your life is, as long as you have sustenance and hope in your heart, you will feel that you can endure it no matter how hard it is.
Suddenly, Xiao Liuzi's yawning mouth could no longer close.
He saw three people walking into the inn. To be precise, what he saw should be three clay figures.
There are two clay figures who look very beautiful, but how can the clay figures walk?
What surprised Xiao Liuzi was not that he saw walking clay figures, but that he clearly knew these three clay figures. These three clay figures were originally as clean and spotless as gods, especially Ding Shaoxia, who had stuffed him with ingots of gold. I will remember the benefits of Xiaoding for the rest of my life.
In Xiao Liuzi's heart, Xiao Ding was like a god. He would never have imagined that this muddy, unkempt person would be the high-spirited Xiao Ding.
Tang Qingqing and Ye Rongqiu were not much better. Both of them had disheveled hair and haggard faces.
"Go and boil some water and bring it to our room. You should be able to tell that we need to take a shower now, and then you can bring us some food." Xiao Ding stuffed a piece of silver into Xiao Liuzi's hand and said with a smile. This smile made Xiao Liuzi's eyes light up, forgetting the embarrassment he was feeling at the moment, and the high-spirited and confident Xiao Ding seemed to be back again.
Some people will never lose their original self-confidence no matter what unbearable situation they are in. Some people can't cover up the light of their personality even if they wear ragged clothes.
Xiao Ding is undoubtedly this kind of person. Even if the clothes he wears are tattered than those worn by beggars, he is still Xiao Ding, the Xiao Ding who can smile no matter where he is.
I wonder if a person can laugh when he is wearing nothing.
Xiao Ding was not wearing anything at this time because he was taking a shower.
He soaked in a wooden barrel. The wooden barrel was not big, but the water was very hot and the water was dense. Logically speaking, it should be very hot, but Xiao Ding felt a chill coming over him.
Xiao Ding's room is upstairs, with the window slightly open.
"I've only heard of men peeking at women taking a bath. It's just because this man takes a bath, and he's not worth it at all. I never thought you would have such a hobby." Xiao Ding suddenly turned around, looked out the window and smiled.
I saw a shadow flash, and there was one more person in the room.
A man in white wearing a mask, his figure has stood still, his clothes are still fluttering.
"What a light kung fu!" Xiao Ding looked at the masked man in white and said with a smile.
"At this time, you can still laugh, I admire you." The man in the white mask didn't even mean to admire him at all. His tone was surprisingly calm, and it should even be said to be cold. That voice seemed to come from the netherworld. It comes from the outside, but there is no trace of the fireworks that should be found in the human world.
Xiao Ding smiled bitterly and said: "What else can I do if I don't laugh? Do you want to see me cry?"
A naked person with no clothes to cover his body, but being stared at by a stranger without blinking an eye, and he is also a man. This feeling is really uncomfortable. If it were anyone else, even if he didn't cry, he would never laugh.
"Don't you know that I can kill you at any time?" The man in the white mask spoke surprisingly slowly, but he was telling the truth, because when a person is naked, it is also the time when one's own defense is at its lowest.
Have you ever seen anyone who was naked when they were trying their best?
Xiao Ding certainly knows this truth better than anyone else, because he is experiencing it personally at the moment.
"Then why don't you take action? Do you want to know how much evidence I have found, Mr. Ruyi!" Xiao Ding looked at him and smiled. Although he couldn't see the expression of the man in white under the mask, he could still see it. Looking at the eyes of the man in the white mask, the eyes are used to see the way, so naturally they have to be exposed outside the mask.
The eyes of the man in the white mask were not as cold as his voice. On the contrary, his eyes were extremely complicated.
Sometimes the eyes are like a bottomless pool with no ripples, and sometimes they are like a spring lake with ripples. It's as complex as if you've already seen through life and death, and as simple as you can't understand the ways of the world.
Xiao Ding has never seen such a look.
There was no trace of murderous intent in the eyes of the man in the white mask, and there was no trace of murderous intent in his body, but Xiao Ding clearly felt that he was surrounded by invisible murderous intent.
Xiao Ding looked at the sword in the left hand of the masked man in white. The sword was not unsheathed, but with just one glance, he felt that it was a peerless sword.
"It seems you do know a lot." The man in the white mask seemed to have admitted that he was Mr. Ruyi.
Xiao Ding sighed: "I still don't know much, but now I discovered another interesting thing."
"What's the matter?" Mr. Ruyi seemed a little curious.
"You clearly knew that just now was the best time to kill me, but you were willing to miss this opportunity. You just wanted to know how much evidence I had found, which proved that you didn't just want to kill me." Xiao Ding Looking into Mr. Ruyi's eyes, he smiled lightly.
"Wouldn't everything be over by killing you? What other reasons do I need?" Mr. Ruyi sneered.
Xiao Ding looked out the window and said slowly: "Maybe you just want me to be your opponent. If you kill me easily, you will feel that there is no fun in living anymore. People like you want to It's hard to make a friend, but it's even harder to find a worthy opponent."
Xiao Ding paused, turned his gaze to Mr. Ruyi's face, and said with a smile: "How about it, am I right?"
