If such a strong killer had assassinated him before, he would have been stunned a long time ago. Now it must be because of recent events. Su Xiaolou has gone through all the people he has offended recently. The most likely one is the Jia family. If Jia Seriously, because he tricked him into eating shit and defrauded him of money, he thought it was very possible to hire a killer to kill him. Killing people in the street in broad daylight was also what this idiot would do.
Wang Yuyan has never seen such a domineering sword technique. The sword energy can tear everything apart. Fortunately, the soft sword she has practiced can overcome the hardness with softness and restrain the overbearing sword energy.
Ichiro Kawada knew something was wrong when he saw Xinyan. It was not suitable to stay here for a long time. He wanted to fight quickly. He couldn't break the soft sword in the opponent's hand for a while, but he was sure that if he gave him another quarter of an hour, he could break it. Got this soft sword.
Seeing the Jinyi Guards from the Zhenfu Division and the people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division rushing over, Ichiro Kawada struck him with a domineering chop and jumped into the river, forcing Wang Yuyan to take a few steps back. By the time she reacted, the person had disappeared. .
Wang Yuyan put the soft sword back into her sleeve, took advantage of the clutter of the crowd, and quickly disappeared into the crowd. Her father must have known that she was fighting on the street again. The Wang family's power was pervasive, and she still knew this.
A team of government officials quickly jumped into the water to search for the assassin, but without any surprise, they returned without success.
The leading government officer quickly controlled the situation, evacuated the crowd, understood the situation with Su Xiaolou, inquired about the injury, recorded it in a book, and sent someone to take Su Xiaolou home.
It was already getting dark, and the workers who were repairing the house had already left. Yu Sheng was sweeping the floor with a broom in the yard.
Lai Qian heard that the yamen officer who escorted Su Xiaolou back said that his young master had been assassinated on the pontoon. He nervously pulled Su Xiaolou three times from the left and three times from the right to check if he was injured, even though Su Xiaolou repeatedly emphasized that he had been killed by a man. The woman in black saved him and was not injured.
…
Under the moonlight, Wang Yuyan tapped her toes and climbed over the wall into the Wang family's backyard. She turned around and was startled to see her father, Wang Hengzhi, sitting in the pavilion drinking tea, as if waiting for her.
"Dad! What a coincidence! Your old man is enjoying the shade in the yard! Then my daughter won't disturb you."
"Come back, what a coincidence, my old man is waiting for you here! Come and sit down!"
Wang Yuyan, who was about to run away, heard this and had to go back and pretend to be very obedient and sit next to Wang Hengzhi.
"Dad, my daughter wanted to buy a dagger when she went out today. She searched all the famous weapon shops in the city, but she couldn't find the one that her father treasured. Rumor has it that it was the seven-star sword that Cao Cao used to assassinate Dong Zhuo. It was so good that he came back late. ”
"Yan'er, what do you think of this ruler? It's comparable to that seven-star sword." Wang Hengzhi looked a little serious, holding the hardwood ruler in his hand and tapping it with his other hand.
Seeing her father's posture, Wang Yuyan decided to show off her cards and stop pretending: "Dad! Dad! No need to do it, I'll do it. I saw a Japanese warrior on the pontoon assassinating my Chao Jinyiwei. He was so lawless in broad daylight. This How can I bear it! If I don’t take action, wouldn’t it be obvious that I am just a bunch of losers!"
Wang Yuyan knew that her father had always been worried about the small country of Japan repeatedly invading our coastal defenses, and that our mighty Ming Dynasty had lost consecutive battles.
Seeing his father's face showing 70% belief, he said again: "That's right, daddy! Your daughter can't be a coward!"
Wang Hengzhi stroked his beard and said proudly: "Not bad! With your father's demeanor back then, those Japanese bastards have long been displeased with them. My daughter has done a good job! Dad will get you the Seven-Star Sword right now. Dad will go there himself. !”
Wang Hengzhi left happily, grinning almost to the root of his teeth...
Wang Yuyan was glad that she had escaped another punishment. Fortunately, she was smart enough.
She sat alone on the stone bench in the pavilion, looking up at the sky full of stars, and remembered the scene in the afternoon, the gorgeous sunset, white horses, pontoon...
A smile appeared on Wang Yuyan's face unconsciously.
…
In the small courtyard of Suzhai, a few people were eating grilled fish, drinking fish soup and eating fish cakes. Why is it fish again today? This is a good question, because Yusheng can only cook fish well and cannot do anything else. .
Su Xiaolou thought that he had to solve the cook's problem as soon as possible, otherwise he would have to live with fish in his next life.
Laiqian asked with concern: "Master, do you know who really wants to kill you?"
"Who else could it be but that shit-eating dog?"
"Master, why did you offend him?"
Su Xiaolou then told the truth what happened on the street that day.
Laiqian said anxiously: "If you don't succeed once, there may be a second time. Only those who have been thieves for thousands of years can't guard against thieves the year before. Master, from tomorrow on, you can go out and take Yusheng with you. He still has a handle." If one person is strong, one more person will be more powerful.”
When Yu Sheng heard the money being praised, he nodded in agreement, as if he would protect his master to the death.
Su Xiaolou looked at Yu Sheng and said: "Yu Sheng, although there are two of us, the Japanese warrior doesn't need a single blow to kill us. Forget it, you should use your remaining energy at home."
Yu Sheng's shining eyes dimmed instantly, and he sat on the small bench and gnawed on the fish like a deflated rubber ball.
"Then young master, what should I do if I encounter an assassination next time?"
"No matter how good your kung fu is, you can be knocked down by a brick; no matter how high your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of a kitchen knife. What is the most powerful weapon in the world today?" Su Xiaolou asked with raised eyebrows.
"God's Fire Gun, Master, you want to buy a God's Fire Gun! That thing is too expensive to buy."
"No matter how expensive it is, your life is more valuable. Hurry! Get the money! I have my own way."
I went to get the money sadly.
After almost eating, Su Xiaolou took a sip of water, mounted his horse and left.
He went to an underground trading house and took a look around. As expected, no one dared to sell fire guns to the public.
If the Tang Dynasty pushed cold weapons to the peak of the era, then the Ming Dynasty was the era when firearms were used to the extreme. He didn't believe that there was no one selling divine fire guns in the underground trading houses in Nanjing City.
"Sir, we are a serious business and do not sell firearms."
Su Xiaolou took out Jin Yiwei's knife from his waist and put it on the shopkeeper's neck: "You don't want to sell it or you don't have it?"
"No... I won't sell it if I don't have it... Officer, please spare this villain." The shopkeeper begged for mercy with snot in his nose and tears in his eyes.
"I was introduced by someone. I wouldn't have come to your place unless I was here. I'm open to do business and welcome customers from all over the world. How can the shopkeeper push the money out?" Su Xiaolou shook the money bag in front of the shopkeeper, and then Said: "I've already arrived at this underground trading company. The shopkeeper, don't talk to me about serious business. Take it out!"
The shopkeeper looked like he was about to die: "Master, I really don't have what you want, even if you chop the villain, you won't get it!"
Su Xiaolou suddenly slapped the knife on the table angrily: "Today, if you take out the magic gun, this bag of money will be yours. We are friends. We will often visit each other in the future. If you can't bring out the magic gun, I will report it to the town government." The boss said that if you sell firearms privately, it will be bad when the Jin Yiwei comes to search. The shopkeeper should think carefully before speaking."
This was already the fourth underground trading house that Su Xiaolou had defrauded. Seeing the old man's silence, Su Xiaolou thought that he was going to fail again.
The shopkeeper said hesitantly: "Yes... there is one last one."
Su Xiaolou felt a sense of joy in his heart. His work tonight was not in vain: "Take it out!"
"Can't take it! Come with me!"
Su Xiaolou and the shopkeeper entered the inner room. The shopkeeper turned the gear on the wall, and a door clicked open from the wall. The shopkeeper walked in for a moment, then came out holding a simple red rosewood Luban box and patted it. Then he twitched the wooden strips at the bottom, and the tightly sealed box opened.
Inside lies an exquisitely crafted divine fire gun. Yes, that's it. It was modified from the Lupyi gun. Although it is incomparable with modern guns, it is still extremely lethal in this era. It is almost a foot long and easy to carry.
