The wine in the public restaurant is not better than other restaurants, the food is not better than other restaurants, the decoration and furnishings are not more pleasing than other restaurants, and there is no advantage in price.It's really just right, a restaurant that is empty of people, they come here often only because the owner of the restaurant is a distant cousin of Tantai Ze.

"Tantai, I heard that you have cured several people who were destined to die, why can't you help Qi Diao?"

"I have little talent and learning, and lovesickness is beyond my ability." Tan Taize replied modestly.

"Oh, that's what you said. You worked so hard to snatch the lacquer carving back from the hands of Hades. If you let him starve to death in vain because of lovesickness, wouldn't it be worthless? If you give money to someone, he will not pay you back, but will still borrow from you.”

Qi Diaoming immediately took a big gulp of wine, grabbed a handful of beans and stuffed them into his mouth.The fifth person froze for a moment, and it took him a long time to finish speaking. "...You just have to borrow more from him, and he still has the hope of repaying you in the future."

Tan Taize: "That's very good, I'll go back and mount it. Why did you sneak out today, where is Xiao Yao?"

The fifth person yelled: "Don't mention that brat! It's hard for me to get away. Aunt Zhao helped to watch. I have seen it, how troublesome raising a child is, always guarding, eating and drinking, and not leaving people! Although Auntie said he It's less trouble--less trouble than her own son. I'm going to teach him to speak right away. First, of course, to call my father--"

"Give him to me."

The two of them turned their heads to look at him seriously at the same time, as if they had just noticed that there was someone else here. "What did you say?"

"Give Xiao...give Yao Ye to me."

The fifth person tugged on Tantai Ze's sleeve in pain. "Sir, this brother's condition is very serious, please find a way quickly."

"I'm thinking." Tan Taize said earnestly.

Qi Diaoming really wanted to beat them up.Yet he only has one hand, and he can't even punch both of them at the same time.He stood up abruptly, and slammed his right hand on the table, causing the chipped wine bowl to bounce. "Give me!"

The fifth person laughed through his nose and eyes. "Don't be kidding. You are a disabled person, and it is difficult to raise a dog. Do you still want to raise a child? Or do you want to pay off your father's debts and die with him?"

"Fifth person, draw your sword!"

The fifth person also stood up with a bang, and kicked the wooden stool away. "Draw the sword and draw the sword! Don't worry about you! I'll let you have one hand, don't say I'm bullying you!"

He stared at each other nose to nose, like a pair of vicious fighting cocks.Until Tan Taize yelled: "Go out and beat me. It's fine to eat and drink for free, but also to damage property, my cousin is tolerable or unbearable!"

Lava-like evening photos flowed on the ground; he slept until dusk.Things will be reversed in extremes, the previous rest will help him recover from his injuries, and the long dreams of the following days and nights seem to only distract his spirit.He got up immediately, flexing his slack muscles.Tan Taize has not come back yet.Yao Ye could not be heard either.

Qi Diaoming went to the yard.The yellow dog lay quietly on its side on the ground, its wide-open eyes unfocused.He squatted down, his palms covered his furry and soft belly, and there was still a trace of heat, which seemed to dissipate immediately after he touched it.The dog's body became stiff, and soon there was nothing but a corpse.

The wine in the public restaurant is not better than other restaurants, the food is not better than other restaurants, the decoration and furnishings are not more pleasing than other restaurants, and there is no advantage in price.It is really just right, a wine shop that disappears from everyone, so three years after the fifth person left Shuozhou, it disappeared among countless shops.Tan Taize's cousin returned to his hometown, and the original shop was rented out, first converted into a clothing store, and later converted into a herbal medicine store, but it seemed that he was cursed by everyone, and the business has been very slow.Qi Diaoming had never heard of anything after that.

He stood in front of the door without a signboard and hesitated for a while, always feeling that even the willow tree that tied the horse in front of the door was a little shorter than he remembered, until he recognized the crossed knife marks and sword marks on it.

He pushed open the closed door.It was empty inside, and there were cobwebs on the beams and pillars. It was obvious that no one had cleaned it for a while.Qi Diaoming walked up the decaying floor step by step to the second floor.There is a bunch of dust in the slanting sunlight, but it is dark everywhere, and the small pavilion inside is covered by the curtain, like a deep mouth.

This used to be the exclusive seat for the three of them.Thinking about it now, Qi Diaoming is only surprised that they had so much time to kill.In the short period of three to five years, every day was unbearably long, and tedious chores came one after another. In contrast, the next ten years were dull day after day, as if the same day had been passed five or six thousand times , can be summed up in one sentence, until that snowy night.

Until that gentle and arrogant boy suddenly appeared in front of him.

He raised the curtain.At first he could see nothing, then a white candle burned on a desk in the corner.The outlines of the scene emerged one by one, and Qi Diaoming had two chairs in front of him, each with a person tied to them.On the left is Tantai Ze, and on the right is Yao Ye, both of them lowered their heads, as if they were drugged and groggy.Behind the chairs stood a man in black, his face was also covered by a black cloth, holding a bright steel knife, and the blade rested on the neck of the bound man.

Standing beside the table was a man in Tsing Yi, who showed his true colors, and didn't mind being lacquered to reveal his original appearance; but that may not be his original appearance.He smiled and pointed to the two chairs, as if he was sure that Qi Diaoming had understood his intention.

"Choose. Only one."

Qi Diaoming habitually clenched his right hand, the feeling of pinching his nails in his palm was strange and painful.

He never relied too much on the knife.Once there is no knife, he always feels his incompetence and weakness.However, there are some things that the knife cannot help him.

The man in Tsing Yi looked at him playfully, obviously enjoying the expression that people would show when they were in such a situation, he was just about to say something to catalyze the other party's emotions, when Qi Diaoming had already walked straight towards Tantai Ze.

The surprise on the face of the man in Tsing Yi turned into a knowing smile, and he stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers.The man in black on the right understood what he meant, retracted the blade, and could cut Yao Ye's throat with just one more inch.

However, the knife suddenly stopped at this inch.

At the very moment, Yao Ye suddenly leaned back, knocking the man in black to the ground with the chair and the man, and the blade left a bloodstain on his neck.Yao Ye tried his best to turn around to the left, the blade was able to break the binding rope of his right arm, he rolled several times, fell off the chair, turned over, rushed to the man in black who was facing the sky, grabbed his elbow and twisted it .Half of the man in black was numb, and he let go immediately. Yao Ye took the knife and rode on the man in black.

All his movements were done in one go, and the whole process was only enough for the man in Tsing Yi to unfold the folding fan in his hand; before he could lift the folding fan, the steady and ruthless knife had already rushed in front of him, cutting the fan in two, and stabbing it obliquely into his right chest from top to bottom .The smile on the face of the man in Tsing Yi hadn't solidified yet, and his wide-open eyes were full of disbelief.

He never thought that the prey that fell into the net could have such resistance.Or he was simply wrong, and the prey that fell into the net was not the other party.

This is the perfect knife.Even lacquer carving, there is nothing wrong with such a knife.

It's a pity that Qi Diaoming didn't see it.Qi Diaoming was only half kneeling.Tan Taize still lowered his head.The lacquer-carved tiger's mouth is like a big lock firmly holding his right wrist, and the thumb is separated by a layer of fabric, stroking the outline of the hidden sharp blade.

"Tantai, are you satisfied with this?"
