The heavens start with letting the bullets fly
Chapter 1239
Chapter 1239
Wu Xi quietly followed the young master who ate hundreds of meals, and came to Huashi Street again, and saw him get into a bamboo shop. After waiting for a while, he saw him come out carrying a bundle of long bamboo poles.Wu Xi laughed secretly, these must be the begging sticks distributed to the beggars, but they are a little longer, and I am afraid they will have to cut them one by one when they go back.
Seeing him pushing into the crowd carrying a bundle of bamboo poles, Wu Xi smiled again: I was always afraid that he would disappear in the crowd just now, but this time don't worry anymore, with this conspicuous sign, you can see clearly no matter how far away.
When the long bamboo pole came out from the crowd and turned into an alley, Wu Xi quickened his pace to follow. When he arrived in the alley, Wu Xi saw that he was walking with a limp. The son is thinner and shorter.Wu Xi was in a hurry, stepped forward deeply, and saw that the man was a thin and poor old man!Wu Xi was startled and angry at the same time, and growled in a low voice:
"What are you doing with the bamboo pole?"
The old man was originally unhappy, tired and impatient, and when he heard the questioning, he couldn't help but get angry: "You are so lenient! It's none of your business if I resist the bamboo poles!" As he said, he threw the bundle of bamboo poles to the ground with a "bang" , tilted his head, rolled up his sleeves, that meant to fight!
Wu Xi couldn't help but smile bitterly, ignored him, turned around and ran back to Huashi Street.There are people coming and going on the flower market street, where is the figure of the beggar at this time?
It turned out that after Chen Zhao walked past the shop of Iron Abacus, he calmed down and found Wu Xi mingling in the crowd staring at him from a distance. With a thought, he decided to use his tricks and lure Wu Xi to Xu's house. It's over tonight!
After all, Wang Hu's house is right under Wu Xi's nose, and Xu's house will not keep a secret for too long.
So Chen Zhao went to Wang Hu's house first, and briefly told him what had happened, and told him that they would meet at Xu's house tonight, and the few words he said when he went out were just for Wu Xi to hear.
As for the little old man with the bamboo pole on his back, it was Chen Zhao who used a trick to fool Wu Xi away. After all, Chen Zhao still had things to do.
He wants to find out the guy who can cast spells, see how powerful he is, and rush to use tricks in front of him.
When Chen Zhao rushed home, he saw Xu Ting and Li Chishui had entered the gate and closed the gate.Chen Zhao stabilized his figure and fixed his eyes on one spot.
After a while, I saw an old man with white beard and eyebrows and silver hair, holding a sword, breaking through the wall.
Although the hilt of the sword was long, the sword body was less than three feet, and the cold light that flashed contained a graceful aura.Chen Zhao frowned and was secretly surprised: This is a peerless sword, and it contains very rich immortal energy. Even he has never encountered it before...
That being said, this person should not be underestimated...
The old man passed in front of him, and peeked into the wall of Xu's house, looking at him like this, Chen Zhao couldn't help but chuckle:
It turned out to be a mortal with naked eyes who possessed this sword by chance.
This is basically a secular person who has never practiced at all, and he can't even see Chen Zhao's invisibility... It doesn't look like a virgin body from cultivation, but it leads to a middle-aged man with white hair, and his actions are simply He's just a thief, how can he have the charm of a cultivator?
Since this is the case, let me try his kung fu.
Chen Zhao pointed at the door of Xu's house with his hand, footsteps sounded suddenly from the door, and then the door slammed, and the old man with white beard couldn't see that someone was doing something wrong, so he was startled and ran towards the wall again.
Chen Zhao then pointed at the wall again to seal the wall, but unexpectedly, the white-bearded old man pointed at the wall with the tip of his sword, and remained hidden for a while!
Chen Zhao was suddenly surprised: Did I miss it?He is actually a golden fairy, and my spell of pointing the ground to steel is useless to him...
Chen Hua waited in the wall for a while but didn't see the door open, and walked out of the wall again. The opponent's residence had been found out, and he didn't want to stay for long, so he put the sword back into the scabbard. A small stone flew directly towards the old man, but the course of action had to pass through the sword.
With a sound of "Zheng", the stone bounced back, flew directly past Chen Zhao's ear, and hit the wall, causing stone powder to splash everywhere.Looking at the old man with white beard again, he stood there in a daze, as if he didn't know what happened.
Chen Zhao suddenly smiled slightly: It seems that he is indeed a secular person, but he only has this precious sword.
Then he closed his eyes and filtered the famous swords in the three worlds in his heart, but he couldn't find any clues, so he nodded: Sure enough, the world is so big, there are so many strange things, there is a sword that I don't know about.
It's a pity that such a treasure fell into the hands of an ordinary person. The old man who helped Wu Xi must also be Shi Heng's accomplice. The poor treasure has been humiliated.
In this way, this sword is related to my Western religion... cough cough cough, this private room is clearly related to me.It's a good time for Brother Chishui to learn how to use a sword. It's because I don't have a handy weapon. This sword appeared at the right time, and it should be used by Brother Chishui.
……
But Wu Xi secretly followed Chen Zhao, not only wanted to find out where Xu Ting was staying, and save some face in front of Chen Hua, but also was afraid that if the old drunkard made a mistake and missed his important event, unexpectedly after chasing for a long time, it turned out to be a The skinny old man, knowing that he was tricked by that Chen Hua again, had no choice but to pin all his hopes on Chen Hua and hurried back to Shifu.
After waiting for a while, he saw Chen Hua come back swaggeringly. Seeing the smug look on his face, he knew that he would definitely gain something, so he rushed up to meet him, and said with a cupped hand: "Mr. Chen has worked hard."
Chen Hua laughed loudly and said, "Where, where! It didn't take much effort to find the woman's hiding place, and even interviewed the names of two beggars..."
He played tricks again, starting from the beginning of stalking them, rambling on and on until the end, and then he revealed the names of Xu's house, Chen Zhao and Li Chishui, which he had overheard in the alley before stalking them, insisting that they sneaked into Xu It was spied out by the house.
Wu Xi listened, thought for a moment, and then went to report to Duke Zhong, saying that the whereabouts of the female assassin had been found.
Shi Heng discussed with Wu Xi, and in order to block all the thieves from the two places in their lairs, they decided to act at night.
Chen Hua saw that the generals and soldiers of the Duke's Mansion were busy all of a sudden, and Wu Xi didn't "prepare a banquet" to reward him, but just went in and out, pointing fingers and ignoring him, he couldn't help feeling very bored.
It's fine that Chen Hua doesn't want to feast, but once he thinks of the feast, the wine worms in his stomach crawl up his throat, screaming thirsty in unison.He couldn't wait any longer for dinner, so he hurried out of the Shifu by himself and went straight to the bustling place.
At this moment, the wine in "Taihe Building" was naturally the best, so I went inside, found a quiet place to sit down, ordered a jug of the oldest wine, and drank it.
Seeing that one pot was about to be drunk, Chen Hua thought in his mind: I am very thirsty today, I am afraid it will take more than a dozen pots to get enough of this wine, and I will eat the best, how much silver will it cost?It's time to change to another one, but the first jug of wine is very enjoyable, isn't it like drinking water?
You can't hold a sword and gesticulate against the flagon. If someone sees through and causes trouble, wouldn't your own abilities be exposed to the public?
After all, he is just a poor scholar, without the sword in his hand, he is an ordinary man!
At this moment, he suddenly smelled the tangy aroma of wine...
Following the tangy aroma of wine, Chen Hua turned his head and saw a black and thin young man sitting next to him holding a wine jar, digging the seal with a short sword. Although he had just dug a crack, the strong aroma of wine had already permeated everywhere.Chen Hua thought to himself: This restaurant is so unreasonable. I want the best wine, but he refuses to give it to me. I'm afraid I won't get it if I don't pay?
So he asked: "My lord, did you buy this wine here?"
The black and thin young man rolled his eyes at him, shook his head and said, "He doesn't have such good wine here! A classmate friend of mine ate the good wine stored in my cellar and insisted that my wine is not as good as the one in Taihe Building. So I told him Bet, let my family send a jar of good wine here, let him buy a jar of the best wine here for comparison. It’s just that it doesn’t matter if we say it, and invite all the drinkers here to taste it, Let's see whose wine is better. I didn't see him coming after waiting for him in front of the restaurant for an hour, presumably he was afraid of losing the thousand Wenyongle Tongbao, so he didn't dare to come!"
Chen Hua was overjoyed when he heard this, and licked his face and said, "I am the one who can tell the difference between good and bad wine. The same wine has been stored for 80 years in one cellar and 81 years in the other cellar. I can taste it with just one sip. Which one is more than a year old!" Pointing to the jug in front of him, he said: "This jug of mine happens to be the best wine in Taihe Building! If you don't mind, I will act as a taster and judge. "
The young master said: "My friend won't come, so I'm not interested in the competition. I've already sent my family back, so why don't I carry this jar of wine back by myself? I have to put it here, and the ones here can share it for me. Thank you for your hard work. Since the old man is so elegant, please take a seat here. I have handed over a few small dishes, and I will be there when I am young. I will invite some comrades here to drink with you."
Chen Hua hurriedly said: "You don't need someone to accompany you, and you don't need someone to accompany you! Don't be afraid of your son's jokes. This jar of wine, let alone your son, even if it's just me, it's no problem."
As he said that, he picked up the jug, moved himself to the young master's table and sat down, staring at the wine jar with his eyes, he laughed and said, "I'm ashamed, ashamed for bothering you when we first meet!"
The young man said: "In the four seas, we are all brothers, please don't be polite!" '
Not to mention Chen Hua's self-proclaimed 180 years old, but his actual age in his 40s, such a teenage boy pretending to be old-fashioned to call him a brother and brother is enough for him to smile bitterly.
But Chen Hua is different, he is "if you have wine, you are a father", instead of being annoyed, he said with a smile: "Thank you, thank you, if this is the case, I will not be polite." '
Chen Hua took a big bowl and filled it with wine, held it up with both hands, and said "please", regardless of the fact that the young man had no wine in his cup, "gudong gudong", one came first as a respect.
After drinking a large bowl, Chen Hua smacked his lips and said, "This wine seems to be better than mine... Oh, I can't tell for a while, I'll taste it later!"
He was afraid that he would come to a conclusion and it would be difficult to drink again, so even though the wine was obviously better than his own, he still said "like", and then tasted another bowl "gudong gudong".
This time the bowl has just been put down, and the dishes have been fried, and the dishes are constantly being delivered.Then aging has good wine and good food, where is it willing to stop?One bowl on the left, one bowl on the right, and only drank one.Seeing that there was only a shallow bottom of the wine in the wine jar, he stretched out his hand towards the jar, but he could no longer lift it up, and immediately rested his head on his arm, motionless, and snored loudly for a while.
Chen Hua didn't know how long he had been asleep. When he opened his eyes, the cups and plates on the table were messed up, and the young man had disappeared. The shop assistant came over and said with a smile, "Guest officer, sleep well!"
Chen Hua was surprised: This young man was so rude, he said it was a treat, so he left first!This table of banquet costs at least two taels of silver, so don't you have to pay for it yourself?
But now that the person has left, he has no choice but to comfort himself: "It is said that the wine was brought by others, and I ate most of the food, so just pay for it!"
So he fought with his sleepy eyes and said, "Quickly check out, I still have something to do!"
The waiter smiled and said, "The gentleman has already paid for your original bottle of wine, together with the food and wine on the table, but you still want to drink a pot of good tea to relieve your hangover?"
Chen Hua was happy, shook his head, stood up, and went back home by himself.Along the way, he swung harder and harder, and the sword hit his butt harder.Didn't he know that his sword had already been replaced by someone, and what he was wearing now was just a fake sword!
The young master of the gangster was none other than the bald Li Chishui.
In fact, Chen Zhao wanted to seize Chen Hua's sword, and it was as easy as flipping the palm of his hand.However, he has experienced all over the world, so he naturally doesn't bother to do such small things by himself, just to temper Li Chishui.
So he figured that Chen Hua would go to Taihe Tower to have a drink, so he returned to Xu's house, arranged for the bald man Li Chishui to change into the clothes of a rich man, and Chen Zhao gave the bald man a jar of top-quality wine and a dagger as a gift. Play by ear and swap out that sword.
This Li Chishui said: "Thank you brother for giving me this opportunity! Since Brother Chen gave me the sword, I must have taken it myself!"
Chen Zhao smiled slightly: This kid is still ambitious!After this matter is over, let him go to the rivers and lakes to practice, I'm afraid he can be my real subordinate.
Chen Zhao waited at the entrance of the restaurant for a long time, and sure enough, he saw Li Chishui coming out of the restaurant happily and excitedly. Chen Zhao glanced at his waist, and sure enough, the fake sword had turned into the real sword.
Chen Zhao laughed loudly, put his arms around his shoulders, and said as he walked, "I knew you were better at this than me!"
Li Chishui won the treasure, and he didn't care about Chen Zhao's teasing. He held down the sword with his hand, and didn't even dare to look at it. He drew out his sword and used the sword technique that Xu Ting had taught him.
At this time, Xu Ting and others were anxious. Hearing the noise, she hurried out. Seeing a cold light, she couldn't help laughing:
"Sure enough, it's a treasure, and it's so easy to get it!"
Seeing her, Li Chishui remembered the rules between master and apprentice, quickly put away the sword, put it back into the scabbard, and held it to Xu Ting with both hands.
Xu Ting took it, clenched the hilt of the sword, and pulled it out to see, there was a cold light between it, it was indeed a peerless sword.
She took the sword from the hilt to the tip, and carefully inspected the two blades. There was not a single defect in the scenery. Judging from the shape of the sword, I don’t know how many generations and years it has been used, but there is no trace of wear and tear on it. It is conceivable that the steel is so hard that it can be so perfect.
Xu Ting couldn't help but nodded again and again: It's a treasure that cuts gold and jade, but unfortunately I don't know his name...
She put the sword back into the scabbard and handed it back to Li Chishui. Li Chishui held it in both hands and handed it to Chen Zhao.
Seeing that he was so polite, Chen Zhao was very relieved, took the sword and took it out to look at it.
He weighed it with his hands a few times, and the tip of the sword shook in front of his eyes a few times, a smile could not help showing on his face, and he understood with surprise in his heart.This is really not a mortal product, it is clearly a steel that was refined in the alchemy furnace of the Taishang Laojun in the Tushita Palace. It fell into the mortal world and was forged by a peerless craftsman. No wonder it can restrain Chen Zhao The art of "pointing to the ground as steel".The bald Li Chishui looked at him like this and said with a smile, "Brother Chen, be careful, don't cut off the tip of your nose, it will be difficult to find a wife in the future."
Chen Zhao didn't care, but Xu Ting blushed for some reason.
She took a step back quietly, seeing that Chen Zhao didn't seem to be looking at her, and while she was relieved, she felt a little regretful.
When it was time to light the lanterns, the arrangement for the Duke's Mansion to divide troops and catch thieves had been completed. Wu Xi took a cup of fragrant tea and sat at the tea table to rest, wondering if there was anything else that might be missed.
He personally eavesdropped that Chen Zhao and Li Chishui were staying at Wang Hu's house tonight, and there was only a girl surnamed Xu left in Xu's house, so he decided to go to Xu's house by himself. The girl surnamed Xu was the mastermind plotting against him. Need to get rid of her, the group of thieves has no leader.Even if the matter is resolved.
That Wang Hu was just making fun of him, even if he wanted to take revenge sincerely, he didn't have that ability, so he didn't need to worry about it at all.Today, when the girl from the Xu family was brought out, I, Fang Chilong, Shi Yi and several other generals with the strongest martial arts rushed forward, and killed her on the spot with a few steel knives and flower guns.
Those two beggars were sleeping at Wang Hu's house, even if the one surnamed Chen broke out with magic, he would have to collect the corpses if he rushed over.
And that old boy Chen Hua came back drunk from somewhere, I hope he should be allowed to deal with those two beggars, who knew he was lying on the bed, sleeping soundly, it was simply out of place!
It would be best if he didn't go, lest after killing these thieves, he would go to the Duke to show his merits.
The Duke of the Kingdom has long allowed me to serve in the Beijing Camp. After this matter is settled, I will tell him that the female assassin is the daughter of Xu Yong. The one who came to assassinate the Duke of the Kingdom to avenge the murder of the whole family, I except her. It's a great achievement, and it's time to recommend me.
Thinking of this, he decided that in three to five years' time, there must be one named Wu Xi among the general soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, and he immediately became ecstatic.
It's a pity that his dream was interrupted by "Master Wu", when he looked up, it was Chen Hua, a "living fairy", standing unsteadily in front of him, cupping his hands and saying: "The last general obeys orders!"
Wu Xi frowned, but stood up again: "The old man is drunk, please sit down!"
Chen Hua rushed towards the pear wood chair, if he had grabbed the armrest, he would have fallen headlong to the ground, he struggled to sit up, laughed and said, "I'm about to capture three thieves with Master Wu with a jar of good wine!"
Wu Xi said: "For such a trivial matter, why bother Mr. Chen, I can do it myself!"
Chen Hua laughed loudly: "Do you still want to be surrounded by that little beggar and wander around inside?"
Wu Xi was furious, and cursed in his heart: Old bastard!
But he said: "That was my momentary carelessness. I distracted the old man. Now that I have the sword in my hand, I will definitely not spare that thief surnamed Chen!"
Chen Hua sternly said: "Master Wu, don't be careless. This young man can perform the method of 'painting the ground as a prison' by picking up a dead branch at random. He is by no means an idle person. He can use this method, but he is not limited to this method. For example, Master Wu With the precious saber in his hand, he used it for a while, and the saber was in his hands in no time, what else would Master Wu use to kill him?"
Wu Xi originally thought that the night when the female assassin entered the Marquis of Wuqing's mansion, the sword he had lost was strange. Hearing what Chen Hua said, he suddenly realized that it was probably the work of the little thief surnamed Chen.
Thinking about it this way, he couldn't help feeling jealous. He didn't pay attention to the guy surnamed Chen before because he didn't pose a threat to him. Now when he thought about it, he suddenly understood: This little thief is clearly a girl named Xu. Killed himself with his own hands to avenge his hatred.If he wants to kill me, it's not that he can't, it's that he shouldn't.
Once that girl was in danger, he would definitely help her+—for example, in the fight in the alley, when he hit his arm with a flying stone, that was the case.
Thinking about it this way, if he didn't kill the female thief when he acted tonight, wouldn't it be troublesome if that guy rushed over?
Thinking about it this way, Chen Hua must go...
Thinking of this, Wu Xi cupped his hands and said, "I said I didn't dare to bother you, because you have rescued me today and went to find out the whereabouts of the culprit. You are really too tired."
Chen Hua said with a smile: "Compared to killing demons and demons in the past, what kind of exhaustion is this? I came to the Duke's mansion, and the Duke valued me so much, but I didn't make any achievements, and I felt uneasy. Recently, I went to capture the assassin , so that the Duke can have no worries."
Wu Xi said: "Since Mr. Chen is so eager to help, let's trouble Mr. Chen again. At midnight tonight, both thieves' nests are surrounded by officers and soldiers. I have personally found out that the two thieves are together named Wang Hu. The strong men are all at Wang Hu's house, and the old gentleman went there to cooperate with the officers and soldiers to capture the three thieves..."
Chen Hua nodded in agreement.
Going to Wang Hu's house was just Chen Zhao's suspicion. Not only Chen Zhao and Li Chishui still stayed in Xu's house, but Wang Hu also came there after dark, and the four discussed countermeasures together.
When Xu Ting met Wang Hu for the first time, she was not used to talking with men together not long after she came down the mountain, and she didn't even raise her eyelids.Everyone talked about the officers and soldiers coming tonight, so Xu Ting insisted on her plan to let them hide and wait for Wu Xi at home alone.
Chen Zhao and Li Chishui naturally refused.At the end of the fight, everyone agreed that if Wu Xi came, Xu Ting would fight with him alone, and everyone else would stay outside to deal with the officers and soldiers and Wu Xi's subordinates.
In the middle of the night, Xu Ting had already extinguished the candles, and sat alone in the main hall with her sword pressed. There was no movement in the yard, and she didn't know where the three people were hiding.A gust of cold wind blew across the courtyard, the window paper "hula" sounded, and the cold air pierced through the thin clothes. Xu Ting immediately regretted: That's all for that Wang Hu, why did I drive Chen Zhao and Chishui into the courtyard?It's so cold tonight, can they bear it?I only care about revenge, and I don't look like a girl!
After waiting for another moment, she still only heard the rustling of the wind. Xu Ting thought again: There is no movement at this time. I am afraid that Wu Xi will not come tonight... When will the hatred of my parents, sisters and brothers be repaid? ah!
Looking around in the dark, she suddenly felt the blood all over her body welling up in her heart—it was such a late night that year, and in this room, a bloody massacre started. Kill Wu Xi.
However, her heart was burning, but she still sat quietly, her white teeth had already bit her lower lip, and a drop of blood rolled down, Xu Ting was about to wipe it with the back of her hand, when she heard a soft "cha" in the courtyard, she was about to go out Peeping, I heard a deep voice saying: "Come out, girl, your Master Wu is here!"
Before the voice could be heard from outside, Xu Ting had already kicked open the door and jumped out. At a glance, the person who came was tall but not Wu Xi. As soon as Xu Ting touched the ground with her toes, the person pointed his sword at her throat. suir
At the same time, there was another "huh" sound behind her, which seemed to be the movement of the flower gun, but it was not pointed at herself. Xu Ting shrank back to hide the knife, and heard "Ouch" from behind, accompanied by a "gudong", she was The disciple of the famous sect reacted quickly, swept the sword backwards, and rotated his body at the same time,
Turning around, she saw a stick wielder fell down on the ground, although he was already upside down, the stick was still held in his hand, and another big man who bent down was pulling his knife back from her body to avoid her sweep.
It turned out that at this moment just now, Fang Chilong pretended to be Wu Xi and attacked from the front, while Wu Xi attacked from behind.But he didn't expect that before the person landed, a long stick was killed in the diagonal stab.
However, although this stick is sure to save the enemy, its skill is limited after all. Wu Xi was still in mid-air, so he dodged easily and kicked the opponent's head, kicking him over. The point of the knife was still pointing at Xu Ting. When Xu Ting turned around, He just drew the knife.
Xu Ting turned around and saw that it was Wu Xi. Without saying a word, regardless of the space behind her, she flew towards Wu Xi, swiping the long sword in her hand with a cold light.
(End of this chapter)
Wu Xi quietly followed the young master who ate hundreds of meals, and came to Huashi Street again, and saw him get into a bamboo shop. After waiting for a while, he saw him come out carrying a bundle of long bamboo poles.Wu Xi laughed secretly, these must be the begging sticks distributed to the beggars, but they are a little longer, and I am afraid they will have to cut them one by one when they go back.
Seeing him pushing into the crowd carrying a bundle of bamboo poles, Wu Xi smiled again: I was always afraid that he would disappear in the crowd just now, but this time don't worry anymore, with this conspicuous sign, you can see clearly no matter how far away.
When the long bamboo pole came out from the crowd and turned into an alley, Wu Xi quickened his pace to follow. When he arrived in the alley, Wu Xi saw that he was walking with a limp. The son is thinner and shorter.Wu Xi was in a hurry, stepped forward deeply, and saw that the man was a thin and poor old man!Wu Xi was startled and angry at the same time, and growled in a low voice:
"What are you doing with the bamboo pole?"
The old man was originally unhappy, tired and impatient, and when he heard the questioning, he couldn't help but get angry: "You are so lenient! It's none of your business if I resist the bamboo poles!" As he said, he threw the bundle of bamboo poles to the ground with a "bang" , tilted his head, rolled up his sleeves, that meant to fight!
Wu Xi couldn't help but smile bitterly, ignored him, turned around and ran back to Huashi Street.There are people coming and going on the flower market street, where is the figure of the beggar at this time?
It turned out that after Chen Zhao walked past the shop of Iron Abacus, he calmed down and found Wu Xi mingling in the crowd staring at him from a distance. With a thought, he decided to use his tricks and lure Wu Xi to Xu's house. It's over tonight!
After all, Wang Hu's house is right under Wu Xi's nose, and Xu's house will not keep a secret for too long.
So Chen Zhao went to Wang Hu's house first, and briefly told him what had happened, and told him that they would meet at Xu's house tonight, and the few words he said when he went out were just for Wu Xi to hear.
As for the little old man with the bamboo pole on his back, it was Chen Zhao who used a trick to fool Wu Xi away. After all, Chen Zhao still had things to do.
He wants to find out the guy who can cast spells, see how powerful he is, and rush to use tricks in front of him.
When Chen Zhao rushed home, he saw Xu Ting and Li Chishui had entered the gate and closed the gate.Chen Zhao stabilized his figure and fixed his eyes on one spot.
After a while, I saw an old man with white beard and eyebrows and silver hair, holding a sword, breaking through the wall.
Although the hilt of the sword was long, the sword body was less than three feet, and the cold light that flashed contained a graceful aura.Chen Zhao frowned and was secretly surprised: This is a peerless sword, and it contains very rich immortal energy. Even he has never encountered it before...
That being said, this person should not be underestimated...
The old man passed in front of him, and peeked into the wall of Xu's house, looking at him like this, Chen Zhao couldn't help but chuckle:
It turned out to be a mortal with naked eyes who possessed this sword by chance.
This is basically a secular person who has never practiced at all, and he can't even see Chen Zhao's invisibility... It doesn't look like a virgin body from cultivation, but it leads to a middle-aged man with white hair, and his actions are simply He's just a thief, how can he have the charm of a cultivator?
Since this is the case, let me try his kung fu.
Chen Zhao pointed at the door of Xu's house with his hand, footsteps sounded suddenly from the door, and then the door slammed, and the old man with white beard couldn't see that someone was doing something wrong, so he was startled and ran towards the wall again.
Chen Zhao then pointed at the wall again to seal the wall, but unexpectedly, the white-bearded old man pointed at the wall with the tip of his sword, and remained hidden for a while!
Chen Zhao was suddenly surprised: Did I miss it?He is actually a golden fairy, and my spell of pointing the ground to steel is useless to him...
Chen Hua waited in the wall for a while but didn't see the door open, and walked out of the wall again. The opponent's residence had been found out, and he didn't want to stay for long, so he put the sword back into the scabbard. A small stone flew directly towards the old man, but the course of action had to pass through the sword.
With a sound of "Zheng", the stone bounced back, flew directly past Chen Zhao's ear, and hit the wall, causing stone powder to splash everywhere.Looking at the old man with white beard again, he stood there in a daze, as if he didn't know what happened.
Chen Zhao suddenly smiled slightly: It seems that he is indeed a secular person, but he only has this precious sword.
Then he closed his eyes and filtered the famous swords in the three worlds in his heart, but he couldn't find any clues, so he nodded: Sure enough, the world is so big, there are so many strange things, there is a sword that I don't know about.
It's a pity that such a treasure fell into the hands of an ordinary person. The old man who helped Wu Xi must also be Shi Heng's accomplice. The poor treasure has been humiliated.
In this way, this sword is related to my Western religion... cough cough cough, this private room is clearly related to me.It's a good time for Brother Chishui to learn how to use a sword. It's because I don't have a handy weapon. This sword appeared at the right time, and it should be used by Brother Chishui.
……
But Wu Xi secretly followed Chen Zhao, not only wanted to find out where Xu Ting was staying, and save some face in front of Chen Hua, but also was afraid that if the old drunkard made a mistake and missed his important event, unexpectedly after chasing for a long time, it turned out to be a The skinny old man, knowing that he was tricked by that Chen Hua again, had no choice but to pin all his hopes on Chen Hua and hurried back to Shifu.
After waiting for a while, he saw Chen Hua come back swaggeringly. Seeing the smug look on his face, he knew that he would definitely gain something, so he rushed up to meet him, and said with a cupped hand: "Mr. Chen has worked hard."
Chen Hua laughed loudly and said, "Where, where! It didn't take much effort to find the woman's hiding place, and even interviewed the names of two beggars..."
He played tricks again, starting from the beginning of stalking them, rambling on and on until the end, and then he revealed the names of Xu's house, Chen Zhao and Li Chishui, which he had overheard in the alley before stalking them, insisting that they sneaked into Xu It was spied out by the house.
Wu Xi listened, thought for a moment, and then went to report to Duke Zhong, saying that the whereabouts of the female assassin had been found.
Shi Heng discussed with Wu Xi, and in order to block all the thieves from the two places in their lairs, they decided to act at night.
Chen Hua saw that the generals and soldiers of the Duke's Mansion were busy all of a sudden, and Wu Xi didn't "prepare a banquet" to reward him, but just went in and out, pointing fingers and ignoring him, he couldn't help feeling very bored.
It's fine that Chen Hua doesn't want to feast, but once he thinks of the feast, the wine worms in his stomach crawl up his throat, screaming thirsty in unison.He couldn't wait any longer for dinner, so he hurried out of the Shifu by himself and went straight to the bustling place.
At this moment, the wine in "Taihe Building" was naturally the best, so I went inside, found a quiet place to sit down, ordered a jug of the oldest wine, and drank it.
Seeing that one pot was about to be drunk, Chen Hua thought in his mind: I am very thirsty today, I am afraid it will take more than a dozen pots to get enough of this wine, and I will eat the best, how much silver will it cost?It's time to change to another one, but the first jug of wine is very enjoyable, isn't it like drinking water?
You can't hold a sword and gesticulate against the flagon. If someone sees through and causes trouble, wouldn't your own abilities be exposed to the public?
After all, he is just a poor scholar, without the sword in his hand, he is an ordinary man!
At this moment, he suddenly smelled the tangy aroma of wine...
Following the tangy aroma of wine, Chen Hua turned his head and saw a black and thin young man sitting next to him holding a wine jar, digging the seal with a short sword. Although he had just dug a crack, the strong aroma of wine had already permeated everywhere.Chen Hua thought to himself: This restaurant is so unreasonable. I want the best wine, but he refuses to give it to me. I'm afraid I won't get it if I don't pay?
So he asked: "My lord, did you buy this wine here?"
The black and thin young man rolled his eyes at him, shook his head and said, "He doesn't have such good wine here! A classmate friend of mine ate the good wine stored in my cellar and insisted that my wine is not as good as the one in Taihe Building. So I told him Bet, let my family send a jar of good wine here, let him buy a jar of the best wine here for comparison. It’s just that it doesn’t matter if we say it, and invite all the drinkers here to taste it, Let's see whose wine is better. I didn't see him coming after waiting for him in front of the restaurant for an hour, presumably he was afraid of losing the thousand Wenyongle Tongbao, so he didn't dare to come!"
Chen Hua was overjoyed when he heard this, and licked his face and said, "I am the one who can tell the difference between good and bad wine. The same wine has been stored for 80 years in one cellar and 81 years in the other cellar. I can taste it with just one sip. Which one is more than a year old!" Pointing to the jug in front of him, he said: "This jug of mine happens to be the best wine in Taihe Building! If you don't mind, I will act as a taster and judge. "
The young master said: "My friend won't come, so I'm not interested in the competition. I've already sent my family back, so why don't I carry this jar of wine back by myself? I have to put it here, and the ones here can share it for me. Thank you for your hard work. Since the old man is so elegant, please take a seat here. I have handed over a few small dishes, and I will be there when I am young. I will invite some comrades here to drink with you."
Chen Hua hurriedly said: "You don't need someone to accompany you, and you don't need someone to accompany you! Don't be afraid of your son's jokes. This jar of wine, let alone your son, even if it's just me, it's no problem."
As he said that, he picked up the jug, moved himself to the young master's table and sat down, staring at the wine jar with his eyes, he laughed and said, "I'm ashamed, ashamed for bothering you when we first meet!"
The young man said: "In the four seas, we are all brothers, please don't be polite!" '
Not to mention Chen Hua's self-proclaimed 180 years old, but his actual age in his 40s, such a teenage boy pretending to be old-fashioned to call him a brother and brother is enough for him to smile bitterly.
But Chen Hua is different, he is "if you have wine, you are a father", instead of being annoyed, he said with a smile: "Thank you, thank you, if this is the case, I will not be polite." '
Chen Hua took a big bowl and filled it with wine, held it up with both hands, and said "please", regardless of the fact that the young man had no wine in his cup, "gudong gudong", one came first as a respect.
After drinking a large bowl, Chen Hua smacked his lips and said, "This wine seems to be better than mine... Oh, I can't tell for a while, I'll taste it later!"
He was afraid that he would come to a conclusion and it would be difficult to drink again, so even though the wine was obviously better than his own, he still said "like", and then tasted another bowl "gudong gudong".
This time the bowl has just been put down, and the dishes have been fried, and the dishes are constantly being delivered.Then aging has good wine and good food, where is it willing to stop?One bowl on the left, one bowl on the right, and only drank one.Seeing that there was only a shallow bottom of the wine in the wine jar, he stretched out his hand towards the jar, but he could no longer lift it up, and immediately rested his head on his arm, motionless, and snored loudly for a while.
Chen Hua didn't know how long he had been asleep. When he opened his eyes, the cups and plates on the table were messed up, and the young man had disappeared. The shop assistant came over and said with a smile, "Guest officer, sleep well!"
Chen Hua was surprised: This young man was so rude, he said it was a treat, so he left first!This table of banquet costs at least two taels of silver, so don't you have to pay for it yourself?
But now that the person has left, he has no choice but to comfort himself: "It is said that the wine was brought by others, and I ate most of the food, so just pay for it!"
So he fought with his sleepy eyes and said, "Quickly check out, I still have something to do!"
The waiter smiled and said, "The gentleman has already paid for your original bottle of wine, together with the food and wine on the table, but you still want to drink a pot of good tea to relieve your hangover?"
Chen Hua was happy, shook his head, stood up, and went back home by himself.Along the way, he swung harder and harder, and the sword hit his butt harder.Didn't he know that his sword had already been replaced by someone, and what he was wearing now was just a fake sword!
The young master of the gangster was none other than the bald Li Chishui.
In fact, Chen Zhao wanted to seize Chen Hua's sword, and it was as easy as flipping the palm of his hand.However, he has experienced all over the world, so he naturally doesn't bother to do such small things by himself, just to temper Li Chishui.
So he figured that Chen Hua would go to Taihe Tower to have a drink, so he returned to Xu's house, arranged for the bald man Li Chishui to change into the clothes of a rich man, and Chen Zhao gave the bald man a jar of top-quality wine and a dagger as a gift. Play by ear and swap out that sword.
This Li Chishui said: "Thank you brother for giving me this opportunity! Since Brother Chen gave me the sword, I must have taken it myself!"
Chen Zhao smiled slightly: This kid is still ambitious!After this matter is over, let him go to the rivers and lakes to practice, I'm afraid he can be my real subordinate.
Chen Zhao waited at the entrance of the restaurant for a long time, and sure enough, he saw Li Chishui coming out of the restaurant happily and excitedly. Chen Zhao glanced at his waist, and sure enough, the fake sword had turned into the real sword.
Chen Zhao laughed loudly, put his arms around his shoulders, and said as he walked, "I knew you were better at this than me!"
Li Chishui won the treasure, and he didn't care about Chen Zhao's teasing. He held down the sword with his hand, and didn't even dare to look at it. He drew out his sword and used the sword technique that Xu Ting had taught him.
At this time, Xu Ting and others were anxious. Hearing the noise, she hurried out. Seeing a cold light, she couldn't help laughing:
"Sure enough, it's a treasure, and it's so easy to get it!"
Seeing her, Li Chishui remembered the rules between master and apprentice, quickly put away the sword, put it back into the scabbard, and held it to Xu Ting with both hands.
Xu Ting took it, clenched the hilt of the sword, and pulled it out to see, there was a cold light between it, it was indeed a peerless sword.
She took the sword from the hilt to the tip, and carefully inspected the two blades. There was not a single defect in the scenery. Judging from the shape of the sword, I don’t know how many generations and years it has been used, but there is no trace of wear and tear on it. It is conceivable that the steel is so hard that it can be so perfect.
Xu Ting couldn't help but nodded again and again: It's a treasure that cuts gold and jade, but unfortunately I don't know his name...
She put the sword back into the scabbard and handed it back to Li Chishui. Li Chishui held it in both hands and handed it to Chen Zhao.
Seeing that he was so polite, Chen Zhao was very relieved, took the sword and took it out to look at it.
He weighed it with his hands a few times, and the tip of the sword shook in front of his eyes a few times, a smile could not help showing on his face, and he understood with surprise in his heart.This is really not a mortal product, it is clearly a steel that was refined in the alchemy furnace of the Taishang Laojun in the Tushita Palace. It fell into the mortal world and was forged by a peerless craftsman. No wonder it can restrain Chen Zhao The art of "pointing to the ground as steel".The bald Li Chishui looked at him like this and said with a smile, "Brother Chen, be careful, don't cut off the tip of your nose, it will be difficult to find a wife in the future."
Chen Zhao didn't care, but Xu Ting blushed for some reason.
She took a step back quietly, seeing that Chen Zhao didn't seem to be looking at her, and while she was relieved, she felt a little regretful.
When it was time to light the lanterns, the arrangement for the Duke's Mansion to divide troops and catch thieves had been completed. Wu Xi took a cup of fragrant tea and sat at the tea table to rest, wondering if there was anything else that might be missed.
He personally eavesdropped that Chen Zhao and Li Chishui were staying at Wang Hu's house tonight, and there was only a girl surnamed Xu left in Xu's house, so he decided to go to Xu's house by himself. The girl surnamed Xu was the mastermind plotting against him. Need to get rid of her, the group of thieves has no leader.Even if the matter is resolved.
That Wang Hu was just making fun of him, even if he wanted to take revenge sincerely, he didn't have that ability, so he didn't need to worry about it at all.Today, when the girl from the Xu family was brought out, I, Fang Chilong, Shi Yi and several other generals with the strongest martial arts rushed forward, and killed her on the spot with a few steel knives and flower guns.
Those two beggars were sleeping at Wang Hu's house, even if the one surnamed Chen broke out with magic, he would have to collect the corpses if he rushed over.
And that old boy Chen Hua came back drunk from somewhere, I hope he should be allowed to deal with those two beggars, who knew he was lying on the bed, sleeping soundly, it was simply out of place!
It would be best if he didn't go, lest after killing these thieves, he would go to the Duke to show his merits.
The Duke of the Kingdom has long allowed me to serve in the Beijing Camp. After this matter is settled, I will tell him that the female assassin is the daughter of Xu Yong. The one who came to assassinate the Duke of the Kingdom to avenge the murder of the whole family, I except her. It's a great achievement, and it's time to recommend me.
Thinking of this, he decided that in three to five years' time, there must be one named Wu Xi among the general soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, and he immediately became ecstatic.
It's a pity that his dream was interrupted by "Master Wu", when he looked up, it was Chen Hua, a "living fairy", standing unsteadily in front of him, cupping his hands and saying: "The last general obeys orders!"
Wu Xi frowned, but stood up again: "The old man is drunk, please sit down!"
Chen Hua rushed towards the pear wood chair, if he had grabbed the armrest, he would have fallen headlong to the ground, he struggled to sit up, laughed and said, "I'm about to capture three thieves with Master Wu with a jar of good wine!"
Wu Xi said: "For such a trivial matter, why bother Mr. Chen, I can do it myself!"
Chen Hua laughed loudly: "Do you still want to be surrounded by that little beggar and wander around inside?"
Wu Xi was furious, and cursed in his heart: Old bastard!
But he said: "That was my momentary carelessness. I distracted the old man. Now that I have the sword in my hand, I will definitely not spare that thief surnamed Chen!"
Chen Hua sternly said: "Master Wu, don't be careless. This young man can perform the method of 'painting the ground as a prison' by picking up a dead branch at random. He is by no means an idle person. He can use this method, but he is not limited to this method. For example, Master Wu With the precious saber in his hand, he used it for a while, and the saber was in his hands in no time, what else would Master Wu use to kill him?"
Wu Xi originally thought that the night when the female assassin entered the Marquis of Wuqing's mansion, the sword he had lost was strange. Hearing what Chen Hua said, he suddenly realized that it was probably the work of the little thief surnamed Chen.
Thinking about it this way, he couldn't help feeling jealous. He didn't pay attention to the guy surnamed Chen before because he didn't pose a threat to him. Now when he thought about it, he suddenly understood: This little thief is clearly a girl named Xu. Killed himself with his own hands to avenge his hatred.If he wants to kill me, it's not that he can't, it's that he shouldn't.
Once that girl was in danger, he would definitely help her+—for example, in the fight in the alley, when he hit his arm with a flying stone, that was the case.
Thinking about it this way, if he didn't kill the female thief when he acted tonight, wouldn't it be troublesome if that guy rushed over?
Thinking about it this way, Chen Hua must go...
Thinking of this, Wu Xi cupped his hands and said, "I said I didn't dare to bother you, because you have rescued me today and went to find out the whereabouts of the culprit. You are really too tired."
Chen Hua said with a smile: "Compared to killing demons and demons in the past, what kind of exhaustion is this? I came to the Duke's mansion, and the Duke valued me so much, but I didn't make any achievements, and I felt uneasy. Recently, I went to capture the assassin , so that the Duke can have no worries."
Wu Xi said: "Since Mr. Chen is so eager to help, let's trouble Mr. Chen again. At midnight tonight, both thieves' nests are surrounded by officers and soldiers. I have personally found out that the two thieves are together named Wang Hu. The strong men are all at Wang Hu's house, and the old gentleman went there to cooperate with the officers and soldiers to capture the three thieves..."
Chen Hua nodded in agreement.
Going to Wang Hu's house was just Chen Zhao's suspicion. Not only Chen Zhao and Li Chishui still stayed in Xu's house, but Wang Hu also came there after dark, and the four discussed countermeasures together.
When Xu Ting met Wang Hu for the first time, she was not used to talking with men together not long after she came down the mountain, and she didn't even raise her eyelids.Everyone talked about the officers and soldiers coming tonight, so Xu Ting insisted on her plan to let them hide and wait for Wu Xi at home alone.
Chen Zhao and Li Chishui naturally refused.At the end of the fight, everyone agreed that if Wu Xi came, Xu Ting would fight with him alone, and everyone else would stay outside to deal with the officers and soldiers and Wu Xi's subordinates.
In the middle of the night, Xu Ting had already extinguished the candles, and sat alone in the main hall with her sword pressed. There was no movement in the yard, and she didn't know where the three people were hiding.A gust of cold wind blew across the courtyard, the window paper "hula" sounded, and the cold air pierced through the thin clothes. Xu Ting immediately regretted: That's all for that Wang Hu, why did I drive Chen Zhao and Chishui into the courtyard?It's so cold tonight, can they bear it?I only care about revenge, and I don't look like a girl!
After waiting for another moment, she still only heard the rustling of the wind. Xu Ting thought again: There is no movement at this time. I am afraid that Wu Xi will not come tonight... When will the hatred of my parents, sisters and brothers be repaid? ah!
Looking around in the dark, she suddenly felt the blood all over her body welling up in her heart—it was such a late night that year, and in this room, a bloody massacre started. Kill Wu Xi.
However, her heart was burning, but she still sat quietly, her white teeth had already bit her lower lip, and a drop of blood rolled down, Xu Ting was about to wipe it with the back of her hand, when she heard a soft "cha" in the courtyard, she was about to go out Peeping, I heard a deep voice saying: "Come out, girl, your Master Wu is here!"
Before the voice could be heard from outside, Xu Ting had already kicked open the door and jumped out. At a glance, the person who came was tall but not Wu Xi. As soon as Xu Ting touched the ground with her toes, the person pointed his sword at her throat. suir
At the same time, there was another "huh" sound behind her, which seemed to be the movement of the flower gun, but it was not pointed at herself. Xu Ting shrank back to hide the knife, and heard "Ouch" from behind, accompanied by a "gudong", she was The disciple of the famous sect reacted quickly, swept the sword backwards, and rotated his body at the same time,
Turning around, she saw a stick wielder fell down on the ground, although he was already upside down, the stick was still held in his hand, and another big man who bent down was pulling his knife back from her body to avoid her sweep.
It turned out that at this moment just now, Fang Chilong pretended to be Wu Xi and attacked from the front, while Wu Xi attacked from behind.But he didn't expect that before the person landed, a long stick was killed in the diagonal stab.
However, although this stick is sure to save the enemy, its skill is limited after all. Wu Xi was still in mid-air, so he dodged easily and kicked the opponent's head, kicking him over. The point of the knife was still pointing at Xu Ting. When Xu Ting turned around, He just drew the knife.
Xu Ting turned around and saw that it was Wu Xi. Without saying a word, regardless of the space behind her, she flew towards Wu Xi, swiping the long sword in her hand with a cold light.
