Chapter 421

Dusk, setting sun.

The last trace of summer heat has not yet dissipated, making it even more sultry.

The guise of the tea shop is fluttering in the wind, not only selling tea, but also selling wine.

The tea is light and the wine is cold, which quenches thirst and is satisfying. There are also marinated eggs and broad beans to go with the wine. The taste is very ordinary, but fortunately it is relatively clean.

This tea shop has been open for several years. The owner of the tea shop, Lao Zhang, has white beard and hair, and a stooped body.

When I am free, I like to drink two glasses by myself and brag to others about my bravery when I was young.

Lao Zhang is a veteran of Beiliang, lonely and helpless when he was young, and fought with Xu Xiao of the Dazhu Kingdom for several years.

Logically speaking, during the Spring and Autumn Wars, as long as the old soldiers who joined the army did not die, they could join the army or be a school lieutenant, and at the very least they could get a military official before retirement.

Lao Zhang is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. He has a desperate energy when fighting, but he has made several achievements.It's just that he has a bad temper, and once he was drinking, he beat up his immediate boss. Since then, he has been wearing shoes everywhere, and he feels uncomfortable, so he simply retired from the army and came to open such a tea shop.

When Zhang was young, he had seen the majestic Dazhu Kingdom from afar. Over the years, the guests he received included traffickers, gangsters, and occasionally dandies in fresh clothes and angry horses. It can be said that he had seen a lot.

But today these three guests are like gods no matter their appearance or demeanor.Don't say I've seen it before, even if I don't dare to think that there is such a person.Entering his tea shop, in the words of scholars, it is "flourishing and radiant".

Needless to say, there are two women in white clothes Ruoxue who look like angels descending from the earth.

The man in black was out of Old Zhang's surprise, he took the initiative to invite him to have a drink, talk about the style of Beiliang, and he had a strange affinity, he was not as superior as ordinary gangsters or wealthy children.

"Those scholars are always eccentric, saying that most of the old soldiers who worked hard with Dazhu Kingdom died, and no one will end well. In the end, only he became a king with a different surname."

Lao Zhang drank a few sips of wine and spoke loudly, no longer shy like a little girl.

It's just that he didn't know if it was because he drank too much alcohol, but the three guests in front of him gave him a feeling of confusion, he couldn't see the true spirit, and couldn't see their specific appearance clearly.

"These brain-filled scholars know nothing! The wounds on Dazhuguo's body are all fake?! They were all wiped on themselves with knives, bows and arrows, and spears?! If Dazhuguo didn't even treat him as a North Prince Liang, so many veterans who did not hesitate to use their last breath died in vain."

Old Zhang, who was already a little drunk, spat and cursed: "Students are the most boring. If I'm younger, I can slap their teeth out!"

"If you meet such a scholar, I will help you slap them."

The young man in white smiled slightly, picked up the wine bowl, and looked at the slightly green liquid, with unsightly dregs floating on it, as thin as green ants: "I came here all the way, one of the reasons is to taste the authentic wine. Green Ant Wine, Mr. Zhang, you have not mixed this wine with water, have you?"

"Fart, unless it is a black businessman who is deceived by lard, he will mix water with green ants in the eyes of money. I am not such a person, Lao Zhang." Lao Zhang blew his beard and stared angrily. Maybe even the man stopped selling wine.

"Haha, just kidding, it is said that the king of Beiliang also likes to drink green ant wine?" The young man in white drank the green ant wine in the bowl.

Old Zhang is also generous, he laughed and said: "Da Zhu Kingdom is good for this wine, this is the wine that our men in Beiliang should drink. But the reason why this wine can be sold so quickly is all thanks to the Second Princess. A poem by him, one of which is green ants, green ants..."

"Green Ant's new grain wine, a small red mud stove. It's going to snow in the evening, so I can drink a cup of nothing."

"Yes, yes, you still have culture."

Yu Liancheng poured another bowl of wine on his own. In this simple tea shop, eating simple food and drinking extremely cheap food, chatting with such a weather-beaten old man is not interesting.

The white fox on the side took a sip of the green ant wine with a shallow face, and his eyes rolled over Yu Liancheng.

This is indeed a strange man. Needless to say, his appearance and temperament often give him a strange feeling.

Sometimes sitting opposite Murong Tonghuang, the two sides are clearly very close, but the other party becomes ethereal, as if from another dimension, and like a god living above the nine heavens, all sentient beings are just ants in his eyes .

But in many cases, they can exude a strange affinity, even traffickers and pawns can mingle together without giving people the slightest sense of abruptness, just like a drop of water melting into a lake.In the words of Taoism, it is like light and dust.

Nangong Pushe's eyes flickered, and he suddenly remembered the adventures of these days.

After Emperor Murong Tong killed Queen Guangling, the Liyang court was shaken, issued a wanted arrest warrant, and sent Zhao Gou to pursue him.

When Xu Xiao of Dazhu State rode the rivers and lakes, he suggested to His Majesty the emperor to set up a secret organization of half army and half martial arts. People in the martial arts feared and called it "Zhao Gou", which was specially aimed at reckless people who used martial arts to restrain them. If someone causes trouble and commits a crime, he has to deal with the tireless pursuit of assassins in this institution.

Over the past ten years, I don't know how many martial artists who relied on their superior force were killed and "passed the world".

Of course, Zhao Gou was helpless in the face of extraordinary masters, such as Cao Changqing who entered the palace three times, and was even killed in various ways.

At the beginning of the arrest warrant, it caused some troubles for the three of them, but as time went by, the troubles became less and less.

On the one hand, of course, it was because Emperor Murong Tong was merciless in his strikes, and Zhao Gou suffered heavy casualties.On the other hand, it is because they seem unobtrusive.

Although ordinary people can perceive the astonishing appearance of the three, few people can connect them with the wanted criminals, as if there is a strange power that blinds their perception.

And this kind of power obviously came from Murong Tonghuang.

What a strange method this is, almost magical.

When old man Zhang went to get the wine, Yu Liancheng turned his head and smiled at Nangong Pushe and Murong Wuzhu: "Are you all curious why I drink and rest here?"

Nangong Pushe and Murong Wuzhu nodded one after another.

"I'm waiting for someone."

"Wait someone?"

"Wait for someone who can take us into the Tide Tide Pavilion." Yu Liancheng's expression changed, and he pointed towards the mountain road: "This is coming."

The point of the finger is obviously Lao Huang and the young man.At the same time, it opened a hole in the spiritual power covering the three people, so that the other party could see their true colors.

"Who are they?" Murong Wuzhu asked in confusion.

"The world's first-rate playboy and the world's first-rate swordsman." Yu Liancheng frowned, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth, and looked towards the mountain road: "Besides them, it seems that there are guests coming."

As soon as the words fell, before the two women asked, they heard the sound of horseshoes, and a group of more than ten riders approached, each holding a big knife, and their faces were full of evil spirits.

The group of people on the mountain road hurriedly dodged, the leader in front of the team swept over with a horse whip with barbs on it, and immediately drew blood from the pedestrian.

All the knights couldn't stop laughing, and praised the leader of the knights for "good whipping".

"Okay, Zhao Laosi really didn't lie to me, he is indeed three peerless beauties, this trip was not in vain."

The burly man, who was obviously the leader of the horse thief, laughed out loud, with a greedy and lustful gleam in his eyes.

Not long ago, the leader of another group of bandits sold them a message that three peerless beauties passed through their territory.

The horse thief leader didn't believe it at first, but the bandit leader swore to the sky, how beautiful and thrilling the description was, and he would get a share of the action after it was done.

So there is the present scene.

Lao Zhang hurriedly ran over from behind, and handed out a bag in his hand: "Master Li, these are my guests, it's convenient." I may not patronize the tea shop several times, why did I come today.

If he had been young, Lao Zhang would have started fighting with bandits long ago, and his life might not have been taken care of.But now that he is old, his personality is a lot calmer, and he is naturally tactful and sophisticated when he takes care of his family.

"What are you, you are worthy of my convenience."

The horse thief leader with pock marks on his face grinned grinningly, put the knife on Lao Zhang's neck, and shook his head again: "I think you are a first-time offender, kneel on the ground, knock your head three times, and call grandpa three times, it's not like you can't let you go!" .If not..."

"If not, so what?" Yu Liancheng said with a smile.

Seeing that the three people's ideas were aroused, Li Mazi puffed out his chest and was even more proud: "If not, I'll chop off my head and use it as a chamber pot."

"It's a good idea." The corner of Yu Liancheng's mouth grinned, and the gentle smile suddenly had a hint of ferocity and terror.

Li Mazi suddenly felt a pain in his neck, his field of vision suddenly rose up, and then fell rapidly. He vaguely saw the expressions of surprise and fear of the brothers and a headless corpse on horseback, which seemed very familiar.

When the scene in front of him rapidly changed from color to black and white, at the last moment of his life, Li Mazi had a vague understanding of what had happened, and suddenly understood a problem.

Why did Zhao Laosi break an arm, and several fierce generals who usually followed him disappeared.It turned out that they were deflated in the hands of these three guys, and deliberately came to punish themselves...

Unfortunately, by the time he figured it out, it was already too late.

"Your head is ugly. You don't want to use it as a chamber pot." Yu Liancheng stepped on Li Mazi's head with one foot, bouncing it twice like a ball, with a calm and calm expression from the beginning to the end.

A group of bandits showed panic.

In their eyes, it was their boss's head that suddenly flew up, as if being stabbed in the head, and rolled down at the opponent's feet with a grunt.

"It's a waste for people like you to live in this world." Yu Liancheng raised his head to look at the bandit, his eyes were indifferent but with a kind of simple malice.

It's like a naughty boy strangling an ant, purely for fun.

As soon as the words fell, this group of horse thieves, including their horses and men, seemed to be smashed to pieces by an invisible sword energy, and they were smashed to pieces.

"Sister, have you seen that, for bandits, they are as cruel as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, and letting any one go is a sin." Yu Liancheng taught Murong Wuzhu dundu.

"It's so disgusting, don't you know how to be more refined when you kill people?" Murong Wuzhu stuck out his tongue, and made a gesture of wanting to vomit, but it was both anger and joy.

Yu Liancheng shrugged: "Okay, I will be more disgusted next time."

"I hate you."

"Let's go, it's time to go to Lingzhou."

Yu Liancheng put a large amount of bank notes on the table, and patted the dull-faced old Zhang: "Green Ant Wine is good, and the marinated eggs are a bit weaker."

With the other two, he turned and left. The banknotes on the table were enough to open a decent inn in Lyon, and it was hard work for him to deal with the funeral.

"My mother, I really met a god today." Lao Zhang's legs gave way, and he almost sat down on the ground, unable to recover for a long time.

The three of Yu Liancheng walked together for a while, when there was a noise in the grass next to them, and the two rushed out.

"You three, wait." The young man walking in front grinned, revealing completely inconsistent white teeth: "Dare to ask the three of you, but you are going to Lingzhou, and the younger brother is going to go this way. I wonder if I can bring my younger brother with me?"

Yu Liancheng glanced at him: "Give me a reason to listen."

"I... I have the "Swallowing Gold Treasure Book" of the Demon Dao here." The young man took out a yellowed book from his arms, and grinned: "But there is only the second half, please accept it."

With Yu Liancheng's sleeve rolled up, the book flew into his hands naturally, and he quickly flipped through it a few times: "It's the real thing, but it's a pity that it's useless to me."

After finishing speaking, he threw the secret book, which is regarded as a treasure by ordinary martial arts people, to the young man.

In the disappointed expression of the young man, Yu Liancheng touched his chin and asked, "Tell me why you want to walk with us."

The young man knew that to deal with such a top expert, it is best to tell the truth, so he replied honestly: "This journey is very dangerous, I am afraid of death."

Yu Liancheng pointed his finger at the toothless old servant who was following the young man, and said, "You have a top expert by your side. Although it is not as good as me, it is more than enough to protect your life."

The young man stared wide-eyed and said, "You said that Huang is a master?"

Yu Liancheng nodded: "It's guaranteed to be true."

Murong Wuzhu and Nangong Pushe all looked at Lao Huang, left and right, but they couldn't tell that he was a master.

Sensing everyone's gaze, Lao Huang gave a "shy" smile, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth missing front teeth, which was extremely simple and honest.

The young man said helplessly, "Hero, don't be joking, okay?"

Yu Liancheng said: "Boy, I'm very serious."

The young man patted the servant on the shoulder: "Haha, Lao Huang, he said you are a master, did you hear me?"

Lao Huang grinned and made a comparison with his hands, indicating that he was a little taller than Shizi.

Yu Liancheng held Zhuo Li behind his back, looking at Lao Huang with deep and bright eyes.

All of a sudden, those eyes were full of murderous intent, extremely cold, far more chilling than the snowstorm in the extreme north.And there was a sense of great terror and destruction all over his body, and he rushed towards Lao Huang.

Lao Huang's smile froze suddenly, and the yellow cloth wrapped behind him buzzed, and a beam of startling sword light flew out, so bright that it was impossible to tell.
