Peerless Young Master

At noon, Lu Xiaotian was wiping the oil stains on the table with a rag in his hand. While wiping, his eyes looked towards the second floor intentionally or unintentionally.

That stunning face appeared in my mind, it was so beautiful.

I didn't expect that there would be such a beautiful woman in such an inconspicuous restaurant.

He has lived in Yunyao for more than ten years and has seen many girls, but none of them is as breathtakingly beautiful as Youmeng.

"Brother Piaoluo, there are so many rooms upstairs, is Miss Youmeng the only one living there?" Lu Chou asked curiously.

Bai Yi Piaoluo raised his head, his hands still working hard, and in a few snaps of his fingers he had wiped the table clean. He snorted coldly, how could he not know what the other person was thinking:

"Hmph, don't think about hitting on Miss Youmeng, she's not someone you can reach. You'd better just clean the table."

Lu Xiaotian was not angry, he laughed: "How could I have such ability? I'm just curious. Last time I heard Boss Li say that we don't have accommodation, but I see that the second floor is full of rooms, and only Miss Youmeng lives there, so I'm curious."

Bai Yi Piao Luo glanced at it and said: "This was an inn before. After the family took over, they started a rice bowl business and closed the second floor. However, Miss Youmeng returned to Yunyao from Junluo City to visit relatives.

She never expected that her relative had already passed away. She was very sad and planned to stay here for a while. It happened that this place was close to Boxin Lake.

My family felt sorry for him because it was not easy for a girl to show her face in public, so they made an exception and let her live on the second floor."

As he spoke, his eyes became fierce: "I can tell you, no one except Miss Youmeng can go up to the second floor, not even our family.

If you sneak up and are discovered, even if you are not arrested and brought before the authorities, you will be driven away."

"Although I, Lu Chou, am not a hero, I am not a shameless person. I would never do such a despicable thing," Lu Xiaotian said in a loud voice.

A hint of surprise flashed across the eyes of the man in white clothes. He didn't expect him to be so serious. He snorted coldly: "You can know a person's face but not his heart."

As he said that, he put away the towel: "I have wiped it, the rest is up to you."

"it is good"

Lu Xiaotian didn't care about anything. Although Li Xuan didn't ask him to do anything, for him, having a place to live was already good enough.

How dare I eat and live for free? But I am really penniless now, so I can only repay the other party's kindness by doing some small jobs.

An incense stick later, just as Lu Xiaotian had packed up and was about to close the door and return to his room to recuperate and restore his internal strength, Captain Liu walked in.

"You are the new servant"

Captain Liu looked at Lu Xiaotian and felt that he was a stranger. Seeing that he was working, he thought he was a servant.

When the latter saw the head constable, his expression suddenly became unnatural, his eyes flickered, and after a while he spoke: "I'm not a servant, I'm just helping Boss Li with some work.

The officer is here to look for Boss Li. He is resting inside. Why don’t you do it first and I will go get him.”

"Then go ahead and bring me another pot of hot tea." Captain Liu nodded, sat down on the nearest stool, and placed the long sword at his waist on the table.

After a while, Li Xuan came out from the backyard and said enthusiastically, "Captain Liu is here. Have you eaten?"

"I've eaten. I just happened to come here while patrolling, so I thought of stopping by to see you. I hope I didn't disturb you," said Captain Liu.

"No way, it's my blessing that Captain Liu can come."

As he spoke, Li Xuan poured the other person a cup of tea.

"The Hundred Schools Competition is over now. I think those martial arts heroes should have quieted down by now. There shouldn't be any trouble on the streets anymore."

"Hi"

When this was mentioned, Captain Liu's face turned ugly: "Speaking of this gives me a headache. Everything was fine, but I didn't expect a murderer to appear."

"Murderer" Li Xuan was shocked.

Captain Liu subconsciously looked around and lowered his voice: "It's Lu Xiaotian. This matter has caused a lot of uproar. I think you have heard about it.

In order to avenge the Lu family, Lu Xiaotian killed many people. The matter became more and more serious, and now the entire Baimen and the government are looking for him.

The officials are worried that the fighting among these gangsters will endanger the safety of the people, so they ask us yamen runners to make three rounds a day."

"I did hear some rumors about this matter. I do admire Lu Xiaotian. He resolutely went against Baimen for revenge. His courage is commendable."

"Just a brave man"

Captain Liu was not optimistic: "If I were Lu Xiaotian, I would hide away, practice the ancestral skills to perfection, and then come out and kill all the enemies.

Now that he was out, he did kill some people, but they were all small fry, and the only ones with some fame were the leader of the Tongling Sect and Chi;

I heard he was seriously injured and at the end of his rope. It’s probably only a matter of time before he’s caught.”

Captain Liu felt a little regretful. Although he did not see the tragedy of the Lu family with his own eyes, he had heard from his friends that more than a hundred people in the family were all killed. It was a horrific sight.

Only Lu Xiaotian, who was only seven or eight years old at the time, escaped and his whereabouts are still unknown.

More than ten years passed and everyone thought he was dead, but unexpectedly he was still alive and became a master.

However, if you don’t reach the heavenly realm, it will be extremely difficult to avenge the Lu family.

It's so hard to save your life, so you should cherish it more. If you die, the Lu family will really be extinct.

"I don't think so. Lu Xiaotian is able to survive under the watchful eyes of the Hundred Sects. He is definitely not a reckless person."

"Let's not talk about him anymore. You're running a business here, with people coming and going. Recently, the people at Baimen are in a state of panic. I heard that the higher-ups are furious and have sent more people to apprehend Lu Xiaotian.

You must be careful, these people from Baimen are not easy to deal with right now, try not to get impulsive with them, or you will suffer losses," Captain Liu warned.

"I know"

Li Xuan nodded, and then remembered something: "Captain Liu, please wait a moment, I'll go get something."

A moment later, Li Xuan came back with a long sword in his hand.

This was what he asked Bai Yi Piao Luo to get from the iron shop last time.

"Captain Liu, if you hadn't told me about the business incident during the Hundred Sects Competition, I wouldn't have known about it.

I made some money from this. I know you are an upright person and you will definitely not accept it if I give you money, so I made a knife to give to you.

As the saying goes, a good sword matches a hero, but I don’t know if it’s suitable.” Li Xuan placed the sword on the table.

"How can I do that? I just mentioned it casually. It's not worth that price." Captain Liu shook his head and quickly refused.

"Hey, Captain Liu, you're too polite. Let me give it a try. If it doesn't fit, I'll have the blacksmith forge a new one."

Captain Liu picked up the long knife and drew it out. The blade shone with a cold light, and the whole room seemed to be illuminated by the cold light. The handle of the knife was carved with intricate patterns and felt heavy in his hand.

"Nice knife..."

Captain Liu was also a knife lover, so he naturally saw that this was a good knife and worth a lot of money.

He put the knife on the table and said, "This knife is not cheap. It costs at least twenty or thirty taels of silver. It is really too expensive."

"Captain Liu, this is a little gift from me."

"This……"

"If Captain Liu doesn't want it, I'll be angry," Li Xuan said with a deliberately stern face.

"Then I'll take it."

"That's right," Li Xuan smiled and changed the subject: "Brother Liu, take a closer look."

Hearing this, Captain Liu picked up the knife and looked at it carefully. When he saw a line of small words engraved on the knife, he was shocked.

It clearly says "Serve the People".

Li Xuan explained: "This knife is not only what I want to give to Brother Liu, but also a token of appreciation from all of us at Haochi Zai Lai. I hope Brother Liu can continue to serve the people and let them live and work in peace and contentment."

Captain Liu felt warm in his heart, he liked this gift very much: "Brother, I am a rough man and I can't say nice words. If you encounter difficulties in the future, just give me a call and I will definitely help you."

"Thank you, Brother Liu."

The corners of Li Xuan's mouth rose slightly, a hint of gloom appeared in his eyes, and he thought of Brother Damao.

Both of them are good people.

An incense stick later, Captain Liu put on a new knife, held his head high and chest out, looking radiant. He walked to the main street, and soon several yamen runners came over from all directions.

"Oh, why is the boss so happy? Could it be that the girls in Cuixianglou don't want money?" a yamen runner joked.

"Go ahead, everyone knows that you shouldn't go to that kind of place. In my opinion, you must have picked up some silver," someone else said.

At this time, a sharp-eyed yamen runner suddenly said: "Boss, you have changed your weapon. What a good weapon, it can be seen at first glance that it is a good knife. Let us brothers open our eyes."

"Ha ha"

Captain Liu raised the corner of his mouth, untied his long knife, drew it out, and gently swung it. The knife light cut through the air like a silk thread, making a subtle but sharp sound.

He stared at the small words "Serve the People" on the blade, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which was a kind of pride of being trusted and entrusted with an important task.

When the other yamen runners saw the five large golden characters engraved on the sword, they were filled with envy and jealousy. They almost scratched the sword until the skin was worn out, wishing they could take it for themselves.

"Go, go, if you have the guts, ask someone to deliver you a knife." Captain Liu took the knife and put it away gracefully.

Take people on patrol to protect the peace.
