Chapter 136 The Old Man Selling Umbrellas...

"Details."

Xu Boqing frowned, but he really didn't expect that the two brothers who performed on the street were from another country.

"Yes…"

Jiang Jin pondered for a while, and said: "The identities of the two brothers are somewhat unusual...

More than 200 years ago in the Wulin of the Great Song Dynasty, there appeared a martial arts master called "Sword Crazy". This person was named Duan Hongyuan, and he was also the ancestor of Duan Yuanze and Duan Yuansi.

It was rumored that Duan Hongyuan, the 'sword idiot', was obsessed with swordsmanship. In order to sharpen his swordsmanship, when he was young, he once challenged various famous sects of the Song Dynasty with one sword, and rarely failed.

The first battle of fame was besieged by seven masters of the innate realm in the Great Song Dynasty. Not only did he not lose the wind, he also beheaded four people one after another. If the remaining three hadn't escaped, I'm afraid they would have fallen into his hands...

After the news came out, everyone in the Jianghu of Song Dynasty was shocked. It was rumored that he had seen through the realm above the innate.

Later, although Duan Hongyuan retreated into the Jianghu and disappeared, there has been a rumor in the Jianghu of the Song Dynasty that he has the supreme martial arts skills to see through the innate...

In the following decades, Duan Hongyuan seemed to have evaporated from the world, and he never showed his head in the world, so the rumors did not make any waves at that time...

Almost ten years ago, another Martial Daoist named Duan Yong'an from the Song Dynasty entered the arena, and he still challenged the major sects of the Song Dynasty one by one.

Later, people in the arena learned that this period of Yong'an was after Duan Hongyuan, the "sword idiot" who retired from the arena.

This period of Yong'an is just like his ancestors back then, not only is he extremely talented, but his swordsmanship is also sharp and unmatched.

It can be said that during that period of time, he was overwhelmed by the Da Song Jianghu alone...

All the sects in the Jianghu of the Song Dynasty hated the Duan family very much.

It was like a scar that had healed for many years was suddenly torn open again, and it was a family that was torn apart, so it was hard not to hate it.

finally…

Duan Yongan was poisoned by the woman he loved, and died under the siege of several innate masters...

And with his death, the Duan family was also exposed under the eyes of others...

The Duan family suddenly lost Duan Yong'an, and they were in the middle of a crisis, and the matter of "peeking through the supreme martial art skills above the innate" was mentioned again by those who cared...

The Duan family has no pillars to support them, just like a child carrying gold to go through the market, and instantly became the object of coveted by the people in the rivers and lakes.

Although the descendants of the Duan family have been hiding in XZ all these years, they still caused countless disputes...

According to the investigation by the humble official, Duan Yuanze and Duan Yuansi are the only two descendants of the Duan family who escaped all the way from the Song Dynasty, but somehow they came to our capital. "

"Da Song... Duan's family... a bit interesting..."

Xu Boqing nodded slightly, then seemed to think of something, and said casually: "The two brothers killed the inspector's soldiers in the streets of the capital a few days ago, have they been arrested?"

"No, but it's coming soon..."

Jiang Jin shook his head, and then explained: "Some time ago, there were a lot of unsolved mysterious cases in the capital, not only because the people below were embarrassed, but also the faces of Jin Yiwei and the Criminal Department...

Therefore, many experts were recruited from all over the country to assist in handling the case.

However, Duan Yuanze and Duan Yuansi brothers acted fiercely in the street, and they killed officials. This action was no different from beating an official's face.

The martial arts of the two brothers are not bad, and it would be fine in normal times, but at this time, both Jin Yiwei and the Ministry of Criminal Justice urgently need to show the majesty of the officials.

Missing a typical...

Therefore, Commander Song of Jin Yiwei personally led people to hunt them down, and the two brothers must be sentenced to death.

According to the news that came back today, these two people have been besieged in the Baililing area today, and all their ways of life have been blocked. If there is no accident, they will be arrested and brought to justice tomorrow at the latest. "

"Um……"

Xu Boqing nodded slightly.

He has good feelings towards the Duan family brothers, and the bounty he put in was only for doing a good deed, and he never thought that such a cause and effect would be involved with the money...

And he happened to want to confirm his own guess at that time, so he went along with the flow and didn't take any action.

Come to think of it now.

The situation that the two brothers of the Duan family fell into today seems to have something to do with me...

Xu Boqing waved his hand, signaling Jiang Jin to retreat.

After thinking about it for a while, he first went back to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, reported to the Queen Mother, and then left the palace.

The Baili Ridge is located in the southwest of the city of Kyoto. It is said to be Baili, but in fact it is only a few small hills...

He originally wanted to go directly to Baililing to fish out the two brothers of the Duan family, but because of the cause and effect...

But not long after leaving the palace, I felt raindrops dripping.

When I looked up, I saw that the already drowsy sky had been covered by large swaths of dark clouds, and light rain started to fall.

The rain came in a hurry, all the passers-by on the street ran home with their heads in their hands, and it didn't matter whether he was returning to the palace or continuing to walk.

Seeing a shop selling oiled paper umbrellas at the corner of the street not far away, his eyes lit up and he rushed over.

The shop is kind of dark...

An old man with a wrinkled face was sitting on a bench by the door frame, holding strips and string in his hands, making the skeleton of an oiled paper umbrella.

There are well-made oil-paper umbrellas on the container behind him, and there are some pasted umbrella styles on the wall for customers to choose.

But the strange thing is that other people's oil-paper umbrella fans are all solid colors or painted with ornamental vegetation such as plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum;
But the umbrellas hanging on his wall were painted either ferocious ghosts with green faces and fangs, or ferocious beasts that chose people to devour.

The painting skills are really good, whether it is a ghost or a beast, it is lifelike and lifelike...

But it is precisely because of these hideous and terrifying ghosts and beasts that the fans are so lifelike, coupled with the dark shop and the old man in the shop, the viewers can't help feeling a strange sense of horror.

Xu Boqing was also slightly taken aback after entering the store, and finally understood why some people on the street outside would rather be drenched in the rain than come here to buy an umbrella.

After all, the green-faced, fang-toothed, vicious beast umbrella was still a bit too advanced for the aesthetics of the time...

When he saw the old man who made the umbrella ribs, he focused his eyes again, only to find that the old man in front of him gave him the same feeling as the old man with a bad nose that he met in Si Qingfang before!

This old man is a practitioner! ?
The old man who made the umbrella ribs seemed to be belatedly aware of someone entering the store, raised his head, stared at Xu Boqing with dizzy eyes, and asked, "Little brother, come to buy an umbrella from me?"

"Ok?"

Xu Boqing was surprised, looked around, and asked in a pretense of a daze, "Old man, isn't this a shop that sells umbrellas? Did I come to the wrong place?"

"..."

The old man was also slightly taken aback, and then he reacted, and said with a smile: "The store sells umbrellas, but I haven't sold one in the past few months since I've been here."

"That's because they don't have eyes..."

Xu Boqing looked at the many umbrella surfaces on the wall, and glanced into the shelves from the corner of his eye. When he saw a long-handled umbrella about the height of a person leaning on the corner of the wall, he was also surprised.

At first glance, the umbrella looks quite old, nothing special.

But under the gaze of the Celestial Eye, the precious light lingers on the umbrella, but it seems that there are countless evil spirits hidden in the umbrella. Looking deeply, I can only hear the screams and wailing of evil spirits...

"They don't see?"

The old man muttered with a strange expression, and then asked with a smile: "So, little brother, do you have eyesight?"

"Yeah, I've never had a bad eye..."

Xu Boqing was speechless, then pointed to the fan on the wall and said, "Look at how well these umbrellas are painted, as if you've seen them."

"..."

The hand of the old man weaving the umbrella paused slightly.

"I also have some research on the way of Danqing, but I don't think I can draw such an expression."

Xu Boqing sighed pretendingly, then seemed to think of something, and said: "Old man, which master of Danqing painted this fan?"

"..."

The old man who weaved the umbrella ribs was a little lost in thought, and thought that he was thinking too much, so he said with a smile: "The old man drew them when he was bored, but he can't be called everyone."

He paused, then smiled and said: "This umbrella is all made by myself, and it is not worth much. No one wants it if it is piled up there. If the little brother likes it, he can take one."

"..."
