Li Chouxin was still immersed in the joy of getting three feet and three feet, when there was a sudden knock on the door behind him.
Shuyi didn't even ask who the visitor was. He went straight forward and opened the door. He saw a woman in light yellow clothes standing at the door. She looked delicate and delicate, looking very calm and gentle.
"Master Li, this is my little sister Qi Yun." Shuyi introduced her delicately to Li Chouxin.
"By the way, little sister, why are you here? Don't you always stay with the host?" Shuyi turned around and asked Qi Yun.
Qi Yun replied politely: "Sister, it was the landlord who asked me to come. The landlord asked Mr. Li to come upstairs to talk."
After listening to Shuyi, he looked at Li Chouxin in disbelief and said: "Master Li, my landlord usually doesn't see outsiders, but he actually wants to see you today. I guess there must be something attractive about Mr. Li." After speaking, he looked Li Chouxin up and down. It made Li Chou feel uncomfortable all over.
"Mr. Li, don't worry. My landlord just wants to get acquainted with Mr. Li, and has no other intentions. I also ask Mr. Li to go upstairs with my daughter and don't keep her waiting." Qi Yun said at this time.
And Shuyi also said: "Yes, Mr. Li, you should go with your little sister quickly."
Then Li Chouxin put away his three feet and three feet, held the sword box and went upstairs with the chess rhyme.
Li Chouxin followed Qi Yun, thinking, "If I can get to know the host Yan Erliang today, it will be a worthwhile trip."
It didn't take long for Qi Yun to lead Li Chouxin to the third floor. Everywhere on the upper floor was full of antique style, but at first glance, it was a woman's residence. Qi Yun brought Li Chouxin to the door of a room, knocked on the door, and then pushed the door open and entered.
As soon as he entered the door, Li Chouxin found that this room had the best view in the entire second and second floors. He could clearly see the inside and outside of the building, and it was facing the room where he was just now. Thinking about everything that had just happened, he could see clearly. Under Yan Erliang's eyes.
"Congratulations, Mr. Li, I got this sword for only ten taels of silver today." A woman's voice came from behind the screen on the side, and then a woman slowly walked out.
Li Chou took a closer look and saw that this woman had a delicate appearance and fair complexion. He had never seen such a beauty even in so many years. She was wearing an all-over red shirt, the color was very bright, and under the reflection of her face, the dazzling red color actually looked very harmonious.
Li Chou was fascinated by the sight, and thought that Yan Erliang might be as his name suggests, and that he was a pampered child of an official family, so he might be a fierce and domineering fat woman, but he never thought that he was so charming and charming.
"You're welcome, sir. All of this is thanks to my blessing. Chou Xin got this sword by chance." Li Chou Xin knew that he would look embarrassed if he didn't speak, so he said politely.
"Master Li, please sit down." Yan Erliang motioned to Li Chouxin to sit on a chair aside.
Li Chouxin put down his sword and sat on the chair next to Yan Erliang. The teacup on the table in the middle was filled with aroma.
"Master Li, my daughter is the owner of this building, her name is Erliang, and her father is Sima Yan Zefa of Eling. I don't know the identity of the master, can you tell me?" Yan Erliang said to Li Chouxin.
Li Chouxin looked at Yan Erliang's pleasant appearance, and felt calm in his heart. He replied: "Master, I am Li Chouxin, who comes from Nanchuan and has no relatives at home. He used to be a good poet and swordsman, but in recent years, in order to make a living, I have also become a small vendor in this world, and now I have a herbal medicine shop in the south of the city, called Sanmiaotang, that’s all.”
When Yan Erliang heard Li Chouxin's answer, he didn't ask any more questions. The results were the same as those found during the day. Then he said: "I wonder how you can tell that this sword is extraordinary?"
Li Chou didn't hide anything, "At first glance, this sword does look like a mediocre useless sword. But maybe it's because I've been fond of practicing swords since I was a child and what I've seen and heard over the years. Take a closer look at this sword." When I looked at the sword, I felt a sharp chill faintly exuding from it, so I thought that this sword might not be that simple. I never thought that I would actually pick it up. Speaking of which, I have to thank the owner of the show for holding a specially held auction."
Yan Erliang said magnanimously: "It's nothing. Bole and Ma are indispensable, and the same goes for this sword. If there is no hero with a discerning eye, how can this sword recognize its owner? It's all just chance."
The two chatted in the room for a long time, and everyone downstairs had almost dispersed. Even Zhang Rao, who was usually the last to leave, had already left in frustration.
"Master Li, how about playing a game of chess with my sister? I have something to do with you, little lady." Yan Erliang looked at Qi Yun who was pouring tea.
"It's okay, the host can just go on his own." Li Chouxin replied.
When Yan Erliang went out, Li Chouxin and Qi Yun sat down at the chess game by the window, and were about to start playing. At this time, another woman walked in at the door. She saw this woman holding a guqin in her arms, wearing plain clothes, and holding her fingers. Fair and slender, with a good figure and light makeup on her face, she also has a long-lasting charm.
"Master Li, my daughter is the host's maid, Se Yu. Under the order of the host, I came to add some elegance to the game between the master and sister Qi Yun." After saying that, he walked to the desk at the other end and sat down, and was about to start playing.
Li Chouxin didn't say anything. He cupped his hands towards Seyu and started to compete with Qiyun.
However, Li Chouxin's chess skills indeed exceeded everyone's knowledge. After a battle, Qiyun could no longer fight back and abandoned his pieces to admit defeat, while the sung music on the side also finished playing.
"Young master Li is really secretive. I didn't expect that he is not only so outstanding in poetry, knowledge, etc., but also his chess skills are so unpredictable. The little girl admires him." After Qi Yun said that, he withdrew, but she didn't know. When Li Chouxin was studying with Taoist Master Yichen, he played chess to relieve his boredom.
Li Chouxin looked at Se Yu, who was packing up the harp, and said, "Miss Se Yu, as expected, what she just played was flawless, just like Se Yu."
Se Yu's face turned red after being praised by Li Chouxin, and she said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Li, for the compliment. Please sit down for a while, Mr. Li. The host should be back soon." Then he also exited the door.
While Li Chouxin was drinking tea, she was thinking about why Yan Erliang left so suddenly. This was not in line with the way of hospitality. But after all, he had no clue. At this moment, Yan Erliang came back.
After entering the door, he apologized to Li Chouxin repeatedly, but Li Chouxin didn't take it to heart.
"Master, I think it's getting late at night, so I might as well say goodbye with a sad heart. How about we talk about it another day?"
Yan Erliang looked at Li Chouxin, took out a small wooden sign from his body, handed it to Li Chouxin, and said: "Master Li, Erliang has been negligent. This sign should be used as an apology. As long as the master holds this sign in the future, this will You can come and go at will on the second and second floors even if you are not consuming anything.”
Li Chouxin looked at the wooden sign in his hand, which had the word "strict" engraved squarely on it. It must have been the sign that represented Yan Erliang's identity, so he said politely: "The host is too kind. This sign is really valuable, and it's inappropriate for me to accept it. "
"It's nothing. Mr. Chouxin just accepts it. This sign will only make it easier to get in and out of the second and second floors in the future. It has no other use, so don't worry about it." Yan Erliang said.
When Li Chou heard this, he didn't give in anymore. After accepting it, he left the second and second floors. He just wanted to go back early so as not to worry the Ling sisters.
Yan Erliang watched Li Chouxin's leaving figure by the window, but he was thinking secretly in his heart, as if he was looking at a dying man.
The night was slightly cool, and the wind blew up some flying leaves and weeds from time to time. The whole long street seemed very deserted. Li Chouxin walked on the street, like a lonely passerby, holding the sword box in his arms, deserted.
Just as they reached the intersection of East, West, and South Streets, Li Chouxin noticed something strange. Standing under the archway that read South Street, he calmly sensed that a group of people was secretly approaching him.
Li Chouxin looked at the sword box in his hand and sighed: "Three feet three, it seems there are a lot of people who are thinking about you."
After that, Li Chouxin shouted to Beijie: "Come out, everyone, stop being so sneaky. You must be here for the sword box in my hand."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of twenty or thirty people appeared on the North Street directly opposite, slowly approaching him, holding various weapons in their hands.
Seeing this, Li Chouxin slowly put the sword box on the ground, supported it with one hand, and faced the incoming man.
The person was approaching, and Li Chouxin saw clearly that the person walking in front was Zhang Rao, the young master of the Zhang family, and said, "Young Master Zhang, it seems that you value the sword box in my hand very much, and you actually brought so many people to intercept it."
Na Zhangrao didn't hide anything at all, and said: "That's natural. It's a treasure. Those who can get it. Besides, in Eling City, except for the owners of the second and second floors, I can't get it. There's nothing I want." And what you can’t ask for.”
"I advise Mr. Zhang not to be impulsive. Maybe this sword box is just like the original poster, and you can't get it." Li Chouxin said very calmly.
"Stop talking nonsense, no matter how capable you are, you will never take the sword away tonight. The people next to me are the largest gang in Eling, the Longhu Gang, which is supported by my Zhang family. These thirty-two people You are very skilled in martial arts, let's see if you will still be as tough-talking as you are now." Zhang Rao arrogantly believed that he was bound to get this sword box.
Li Chou said without hesitation, "Then let's go together, I'll go home in a hurry."
Zhang Rao was furious when he heard this and waved his hands straight away towards Li Chou's heart.
But at this time, Li Chouxin knew that he couldn't kill Zhang Rao, and he would have to win over Zhang Rao later, so he didn't even draw his sword and faced him with bare hands.
Zhang Rao, who thought he had a chance to win, watched happily from the sidelines. From time to time, screams came from the fighting crowd. Zhang Rao thought it was Li Chouxin who was beaten, but the further he went, the more he realized something was wrong. The voice was not from the same person. After coming out, Zhang Rao looked carefully and saw that the person he brought had fallen to pieces in a moment and was rolling and screaming on the ground.
Only then did Zhang Rao realize that he had underestimated Li Chouxin. Before he could recover, everyone was knocked down by Li Chouxin with his bare hands, leaving him unable to fight back.
Zhang Rao panicked a little at this time, and quickly ordered the person next to him to step forward and deal with Li Chouxin.
The man followed Zhang Rao's instructions, stepped forward, stood among the fallen people, took out the long knife from behind, and moved straight towards Li Chou's heart with both feet. But since practicing the Heart-inducing Art, Li Chou's heart was not interested in anyone. The sensitivity of things has more than doubled. Every time the man slashed or stabbed, Li Chouxin easily dodged it.
Suddenly, Li Chouxin jumped back, stood up, and said, "Have you finished cutting? This time it's my turn."
Li Chouxin tapped her toes lightly, flew forward, and before the man's knife fell, he quickly stabbed his wrist with his sword finger. The knife clenched in his hand fell to the ground with a scream, and Li Chouxin kicked out. The man actually flew out, a full thirty or forty feet away, and then lay motionless on the ground and fainted.
Li Chouxin had already walked up to Zhang Rao and said to Zhang Rao, "Young Master Zhang, do you want to do it yourself?"
Zhang Rao was so frightened by Li Chouxin's performance that his feet trembled and he stayed in place. Then he said in a trembling voice: "Li..., Brother Li, misunderstandings are all misunderstandings. Brother, I don't know martial arts. Besides, I only rely on Brother Li." In terms of skill, another hundred people may not be able to match Brother Li. I don’t dare to worry about this sword anymore. I also ask Brother Li to show your kindness and let me go this time. I will definitely come to apologize in person in the future.”
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Li Chou hugged Zhang Rao and said, "Master Zhang, if it's a misunderstanding, forget it. However, Chou has two words to say to each other. One is that one more friend is better than one more enemy; the other is that I, Li Chou, treat me well." Friends are loyal and loyal, and they never show mercy to their enemies." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the sword box to leave.
Zhang Rao still stood there, muttering: "He, does he want to make friends with me?"
And Li Chouxin suddenly shouted again: "Master Zhang, it's cold at night, take your brothers and go back quickly. Don't worry, they can rest at home for a few days at most, and there will be nothing serious."
Hearing this, Zhang Rao looked at Li Chouxin and saw how a frail young man who looked so frail could be so frightened. He then woke up the people on the ground and helped each other out of the place.
Li Chouxin looked at Zhang Rao and others leaving with a slight smile.
Zhang Rao, who had already left, was really curious about Li Chouxin, so he turned around and hid in a side alley, wanting to follow and observe in secret.
Li Chouxin saw that no one was around at this time, so he picked up the sword case and was about to leave. Just as he was starting to start, a sound of a piano suddenly came from upstairs. Li Chouxin looked upstairs curiously and saw the window of the room where the sound of the piano came from. The hole opened, and the sound of the piano was filled with murderous intent. Although Li Chouxin was curious, he didn't want to stop and was about to leave.
Just after taking two steps, a half-broken knife fell from the sky and was firmly inserted into the street at Li Chouxin's toes, blocking Li Chouxin's way.
Then a rough and powerful voice came from the room where the sound of the piano came from: "Leave the sword and don't leave!"
Li Chouxin knew that the current group of people was much more powerful than the ones that Zhang Rao had just brought, so he turned to face the room and asked: "Is the person coming here related to the second and second floors? I heard the sound of the piano below, and the whispers on the second and second floors. The girl's playing is very similar, but she is definitely not the girl playing the piano, because there is no such strong murderous intention in the music of the piano. Can I tell you the truth?"
The sound of the piano did not stop, and the murderous intention was still there, but a woman's voice came: "A person who is about to die, why should he know, just go on your way in peace."
The more Li Chouxin listened, the more familiar the voice became. Gradually, the memory of Qin Yin, who was hosting the auction on the second floor, appeared in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the person upstairs was Qin Yin.
Just when Li Chou was about to ask further questions, a group of killers jumped down from the surrounding rooftops, moving in unison to the sound of the piano, as if the sound of the piano was the order they received.
Seeing this, Li Chouxin lowered his head and looked at the sword box in his hand, and said to the sword box: "It seems that you have been in the dust for too long. It would be unkind to not let you taste some human blood today."
Zhang Rao, who turned around and came back, was watching this scene from a distance. He looked at Li Chouxin and felt that Li Chouxin seemed to have changed. At this moment, Li Chouxin's eyes were like torches, his expression was serious, and his whole body was filled with a strong aura. Feeling oppressive, I suddenly realized that Li Chouxin and I were just playing together, this was the real Li Chouxin.
Those men in black covered their faces and listened to the sound of the piano before killing Li Chouxin. Li Chouxin didn't care how many people were attacking. He saw calmly standing in the wind. With a palm strike, the sword box was broken and the sword was held in his hand. , just when the killer was approaching, he rose into the air, reached mid-air, and used a sword to hit the sun.
In an instant, I saw a dazzling light tearing through the night sky like sunlight and pouring down. It hit the killer with lightning speed. A loud noise made the entire silent street become even quieter. The killer They died here before they could even scream, leaving only a neat and smooth sword pit on the ground.
The sound of the piano finally became chaotic at this moment. Li Ke fell to the ground, holding a long sword three feet three, pointing at the window, and said angrily in a low voice: "The owner of the broken sword, please show up too!"
A person jumped down from the window where the sound of the piano came from, and put his hand on the broken knife with force, and the broken knife flew back to the person's hand.
Li Chouxin looked at the man in front of him. He had a ferocious look and was wearing a sheepskin vest that showed off his strong muscles. He looked like a master who had practiced martial arts to the extreme. One punch might have the power of a thousand catties.
"Boy, I will make it clear to you today that I am the Mobei Broken Sword - Gang Yida. It will be your honor to die under my Broken Sword."
Zhang Rao, who was hiding in the distance, was dumbfounded. The second and second floors were really a big deal. They even invited masters like Mobei Broken Sword. It was rumored that the skills practiced by Mobei Broken Sword were overbearing and powerful. His sword skills were fast and fast. Flexible without losing the strength of a bull, it once made people fearful in Mobei, and countless people died under its sword.
Li Chou's heart was still as calm as water. He looked at the arrogant Gang Yida in front of him and said slowly: "Just one strike, just one strike, let's see if you can really hold on."
Hearing this, Gang Yi Dao ran towards Li Chou Xin angrily. Li Chou Xin was still calm and used his sword again. The dazzling light came from the sky again. Unexpectedly, Gang Yi Dao actually caught this force. I didn't expect that I actually caught the sword, but the broken sword in my hand was now broken into pieces, and they all fell to the ground. Under the lingering power of the sword, Gang Yida took a dozen steps back, and after standing still, he vomited blood and his eyes were filled with blood. He looked at Li Chouxin in front of him in horror.
Gang Yida knew that he was defeated, but he still endured the severe pain and ran towards Li Chouxin with bare hands. Li Chouxin also decided not to hold back anymore, and actually used the same move that Shi Wei had used in a sparring match with Shi Wei. The two passed by each other. At that moment, the long sword slashed a slash across Gang Yida's neck, and Gang Yida fell to the ground.
At this moment, the sound of the piano stopped upstairs, and he must have been confused.
But Li Chouxin pointed at the window and said, "I, Li Chouxin, never kill women. Go back and tell your master that if you are friends with me, I will support you in anything. But if you insist on being my enemy, I will accept everything. Don't blame me for being ruthless with my sword."
After saying that, the woman upstairs hurriedly left. Listen closely, the footsteps of the woman going downstairs were no longer chaotic.
Li Chouxin knew that after tonight, no one in Eling would dare to embarrass him easily, so he turned and left.
Zhang Rao, who had seen everything, ran out and shouted: "Brother Li, wait for me."
Li Chouxin had known for a long time that Zhang Rao was hiding and watching from a distance, so he attacked without mercy this time. It shocked both the second and second floors and Zhang Rao, so he turned around and asked, "What else can you do, Mr. Zhang?"
"Brother Li, I really blame my poor eyesight today. I just thanked Brother Li for being merciful, otherwise I might not have seen the sun tomorrow morning. Brother Li, I have decided that I will never be an enemy with you in the future." Zhang Raoruo After the disaster, he talked to Li Chouxin.
Seeing that Zhang Rao had surrendered, Li Chou said politely: "Master Zhang, that's very nice. Since we are friends, I can rely on your Zhang family in Eling from now on."
Zhang Rao said: "That's natural, but even without the Zhang family, no one in Eling City would dare to find trouble with Brother Li in the future."
Li Chou smiled knowingly, "In that case, you and I will talk about it some other time. It's already late at night, and I'll be worried if I don't go home."
"Brother Li, go slowly. Remember to drink together some other time." Zhang Raoke said politely.
Li Chouxin walked in the direction of Sanmiao Hall, while Zhang Rao still stood there and watched Li Chouxin's back disappear into the night, still feeling frightened by what had just happened.
