in the world of murder
Chapter 22
When Fugui entered the city, he didn't notice anything wrong, and the town at the foot of the mountain remained the same as before.At the end of the lively bazaar, Fu Gui walked to the small stall where he did business with his burden on his back.He set up a pole with the extremely outrageous word 'fortune-telling' written on it.
As soon as he sat down, people surrounded him, wearing coarse clothes, with a sallow complexion.These are all street vendors doing business, they didn't come to Fugui for fortune-telling, they came to see him for medical treatment.The doctor in the medical center is expensive, and the Fugui doctor at the hexagram stand only needs three copper coins each time. It is said to be a fortune teller, but it can clearly explain all the diseases on your body, which is more cost-effective than going to the medical center.
Fu Gui spread out his pen and ink, and said, "Don't worry, come one by one."
Fu Gui opened this hexagram stall originally not for fortune-telling, but as a contact point. If anyone wants to buy things from Fu Gui, they come here to find him.At that time, what Fu Gui sold was not a cure for diseases, but his old business, which was poison for the intestines.
He was looking after someone's illness, when he suddenly saw a few men who looked like thugs walking towards him, the leader was big and round, with a vicious look on his face.
"Go away, go away!" Several thugs drove the crowd away, revealing Fugui's small stall.
Fu Gui stood up and greeted him with a smile, "My lord, do you want to make a fortune?"
"What kind of hexagram!" The bully slapped a butcher's knife in front of Fugui with a "slap", and said, "I want your stall! You, get out of here as soon as possible!"
Fu Gui said: "My lord, I paid the booth fee for this stall. If you need a booth, you might as well go..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he was pushed to the ground by the bully.
The purse hanging around his waist fell to the ground with a "snap", revealing a corner of the contents of the purse.
Fu Gui focused his eyes, picked up the purse, and an engraved token appeared in front of his eyes.
The bully was still yelling, and ordered a few followers to overturn the stall, throwing pens, ink and white paper everywhere.
The onlookers pointed at several people.
"If you bully the market like this, you won't be afraid of retribution!"
"I dare not say that, no one in this whole street dares to offend him."
"Dr. Xiaofu is such a good person, why did he get such a bad star?"
People said that, but no one came up to help Gui, and even those who came to see Fugui for medical treatment just surrounded him, not daring to say a word.
Fu Gui stood up, patted the dirt on his body, and said with a smile: "My lord, don't be angry, I will give this stall to you. I also have a sign on my body, which is mixed with gold, as long as you can let it go Me, I'll give you this brand too."
As soon as he heard that the sign was mixed with gold, the bully immediately said: "Bring it quickly!"
Fu Gui handed over the sign and bent down to put away the luggage.Seeing that Fu Gui is so knowledgeable about current affairs, the bully waved his hand and said, "Get lost."
With a smile on Fu Gui's face, he saluted politely.The bully couldn't understand what the etiquette meant, so he just looked at the sign over and over.
He picked up his bag and turned to leave. Someone came to persuade him, "Doctor Xiaofu, are you really leaving? Stay for a while, there will be a solution."
Fu Gui shook his head with a smile, and went to find a place to stay with his burden on his back.
Before he had gone far, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd.Fu Gui turned her head and saw that the bully had been killed by the original stall, and the hands holding the sign were all cut off, and disappeared along with the sign.
The crowd fled in all directions, Fu Gui's eyes gradually darkened, and she disappeared into the crowd.
Master Yao gave Fu Gui the order of competing for flowers, perhaps because he wanted to favor him.But Fu Guizhi was not here, and soon realized that this was a hot potato.
Knowing that he would have sold it to Xi Zhen, Fu Gui thought, he would definitely make a fortune.
Not far from him, a red shadow followed him into the alley.
The disciple who got the order to compete for flowers walked to the end, only to realize that there was someone behind him.He turned around, and Xizhen, who was wearing a red hood, was standing in the empty alley, holding his sword.
Xi Zhen was quite surprised when he saw him, "Cheng Lian?"
When he was on the mountain, Cheng Lian had always been cowardly and timid, but now that he was down the mountain, he didn't even bat an eye when killing people.
"Did you take out the sign yourself, or I killed you and brought the sign over."
Cheng Lian is obviously a person who is aware of current affairs, so he threw the sign in his hand at Xi Zhen without much hesitation.There was still dried blood splashed on the sign, Xi Zhen looked disgusted, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the sign clean.
Cheng Lian looked at him warily, "Can I go now?"
Xi Zhen put away the sign, looked up at Cheng Lian, Cheng Lian was cruel, good at disguising and very knowledgeable about current affairs, Xi Zhen never paid attention to him in the past.
"Does Xie Li know that you are such a person?" Xi Zhen asked suddenly.
Cheng Lian forced a smile, and said, "Everyone has to make plans for themselves. Even if the senior brother knows, he probably won't say anything."
Xi Zhen's complexion suddenly sank, he sneered twice and said: "That's not bad, you are pitiful in dealing with him, he will let you go."
Cheng Lian didn't know what he said wrongly, but he knew that Xi Zhen was moody and angry, and he was far from his martial arts.
"There is still a flower competition in the city," Cheng Lian said decisively, "it's by the Luochun Lake."
There are flower buildings in the city gathered by Luochun Lake, and the flower buildings stand by the water. Sometimes there are painting boats going boating on the lake.
It was dusk, a ray of setting sun lay in the water, and the setting sun filled the lake, which was so beautiful.
Xie Li held his sword and turned around from the other side of the street.A lot of people gathered at the entrance of Hualou, today is the day when the famous prostitute Luo Yi is out of the pavilion, rich people from far and near in the city and outside the city all come to join in the fun.
Suddenly there was a wave of shouts from the crowd, and Luo Yi came out.She was standing on the second-floor platform, wearing a floor-length dress, holding a hydrangea ball in her hand.
She wants to play the hydrangea trick, whoever gets the hydrangea will be her husband.
Xie Li raised his eyes and met Shang Luo Yi's eyes.She has a pair of charming eyes similar to Xi Zhen.
Xie Li remembered that last winter, when he went down the mountain with Xi Zhen, he had seen this woman.
Luo Yi's eyes flickered, winking like silk, but Xie Li remained unmoved.Just as he was about to move his eyes away, he was caught by something on Luo Yi's waist.
It was a black brand with complicated patterns engraved on the back and tassels on the bottom, hanging on Luo Yi's waist like a decoration, simple and gorgeous.
Luo Yi's eyes swept across the crowd, and the hydrangea in his hand was like a ball of fire, smashing towards the sentient beings downstairs.
Xie Li's figure was like the wind, he jumped out of the crowd and got the hydrangea in mid-air.Everyone saw only a white shadow, and put the ball of fire into their arms in a blink of an eye.
In the crowd gathered downstairs, I don't know how many people were eager to make a move for the token, but when they saw Xie Li get the hydrangea, they all quietly retreated.
A few young girls ran out of the flower building, surrounded Xie Li and went in.Luo Yi also went back to the house, and the crowd gradually dispersed. The young man who caught the hydrangea ball would become an interesting topic for many people.
There are not many guests in the flower building, they are all young and beautiful girls.They surrounded Xie Li and went upstairs. The room was filled with fragrance, and there was water vapor behind the screen. A girl said: "The hot water is ready, please take a shower and change clothes."
Xie Li didn't speak, a girl came up to take off Xie Li's hairpin and wait for him to take a bath.Xie Li dodged lightly and said, "I don't need anyone to wait on me."
Several girls looked at me and I looked at you, and the girl in the lead said: "Then let's put the clothes here, please change your clothes quickly, don't miss the auspicious time."
I don't know how long it took, the music of silk and bamboo orchestras sounded in the flower building.Xie Li opened the door and walked out, the girls who came to look for him were all stunned.
He was wearing a red wedding dress with dark red embroidery trim, the same white jade hairpin on his head, and long satin-like hair hanging behind him.Dressed in red and black hair, a reserved and noble son is outlined in the thick ink and heavy colors, he can be called unparalleled in the world.
The girls led Xie Li to a door, singing endless auspicious words to the music.
"Groom officer, go in."
Xie Li pushed open the door, red candles were shining brightly in the room, double happiness characters were pasted on the windows, and red silk was hung everywhere, as far as the eye could see, it was all dim red.On the inner bed, red curtains were hung on both sides. Under the curtain, sat a man in a red wedding dress and a red hijab.
Xie Li took a glance and found that the man did not have a flower ring around his waist.
An older woman came in with something, saw Xie Li sitting at the table, and the bride sitting on the bed, and said with a smile: "Oh, why is the groom so cold, why didn't he take off the bride's hijab?"
Xie Li didn't speak, but looked at this woman.The older woman put down her things and said: "Luo Yi is my most beloved daughter. She leaves the cabinet today. I have prepared a dowry for her. As long as the gentleman treats her well, the dowry will belong to him."
She lifted the red silk, and there was the flower competition order in the tray.
Xie Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he reached out to get the flower competition order.A hand suddenly stretched out from the side, and it also went towards the flower competition.
Xie Li looked at the bride who was scrambling for the flower order, turned his wrist, and pressed the bride's hand under the flower order.
The other hand of the bride moved slightly, several hidden weapons came straight towards Xie Li, Xie Li dodged the hidden weapons, and grabbed the tassels of the Flower Fighting Order the moment someone took the Flower Fighting Order away.
The hidden weapon missed Xie Li, but it caused all the lights in the room to go out.The older woman ran away early when she saw that the situation was not good. In the darkness, the bride and Xie Li were both holding on to the scramble, and they used dozens of tricks in their hands.
The bride was clinging to the flower competition order, Xie Li's strike was as fast as lightning, and he was going straight to the bride's face.The bride dodged, and the red hijab fell to the ground, revealing Xizhen's gorgeous face.
Seeing that the person in front of him was Xie Li, the menacing Xi Zhen was stunned, "Xie Li...you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xie Li threw him on the bed, knocking his head on the head of the bed, and he gasped in pain.
"Xie Li, it's me!"
Xie Li knew it was Xi Zhen, he leaned forward, grabbed Xi Zhen's neck, stared at him with dark eyes, "Why didn't you wait for me?"
