"I don't know if it's pleasant or not, but the pain is certain..." Shi Yan looked at the departing figure of the bearded guest and muttered, "It seems that the saying that those who use big swords are all rough guys makes sense.

I only know how to rush forward without thinking about whether I can beat him or not. If it were me, I would at least wait until the other three people left and then find a way to make the Nine-Life Cat God a little weaker.

Only then can we be considered evenly matched..."

"So it's hard for you to achieve anything in martial arts in your life," a cold voice came from the roof of the noodle shop, "You know you can't do something but do it, even if there are millions of people, I will do it... This is

The state of mind a warrior should have!"

"I'm a chess player. It doesn't matter whether I have martial arts achievements..." Shi Yan put down his bowl and chopsticks, took out a dozen copper plates from his pocket and slapped them on the table, yawned and said lazily, "Let's go too.

, go to the city lord's mansion and see if you can finally get some benefits."

"If you want to go alone, I have no interest..."

"Could it be that you also want to join in the fun at Zuiyue Tower?"

"If my mentor hadn't repeatedly warned me to protect you, the first thing I would have done when I entered the city was to go to Zuiyue Tower, and it would never have been the turn of a desperate swordsman from the Tang Dynasty to take action! Daqing should have done its own thing.

You can do it yourself, why bother relying on others!"

"Pang Qing, I know your hands are itchy again. You must hold it back. You are my trump card. You must be saved for the last one. Only in this way can I give that kid a fatal blow..." Shi Yan walked out of the mutton noodle restaurant.

, turned around and said to the young man in gray linen who jumped down from the roof of the noodle shop, "Don't be in a hurry to go to Zuiyue Tower. There is nothing interesting to see there. You will have a chance to have fun with those people in the future, but now it's better to go to Zuiyue Tower."

Come with me to the City Lord's Mansion, there is also a very powerful arrow there. Without you by my side, I feel uneasy."

"It's good, it's not bad to compete with the best arrow in the world!" Pang Qing looked back at the mutton noodle shop, licked his lips and said, "Shi Yan, I have watched you and others eat mutton twice in this noodle shop.

Next time I fight with those masters, I must come over and have a few bites, otherwise I don’t know if I will have a chance to eat it in my mouth in the future..."

"You are really a martial arts idiot," Shi Yan rolled his eyes, walked towards the city lord's mansion, and said angrily, "The moves I mentioned are just moves. You only need to hold them back when the time comes, not necessarily

If we really want to fight to the death, when the fatal blow lands and the boy named Shen rolls his eyes, we will be done and can return to Kyoto to resume our lives."

Pang Qing put his hands into his sleeves and followed Shi Yan step by step. He frowned slightly and said, "That won't work. I have to fight them vigorously to prove my martial arts. If I get timid about retreating now,

In the future, when encountering masters of the same level, they will not even be able to muster the determination to fight... Therefore, the competition between masters should not only determine the level of superiority, but also life and death, otherwise it will not be considered as exerting all one's strength."

"Uh...then I ask you to try your best to exercise some restraint when the time comes, and put your mission first in everything. Is this a request that is too much?"

"I'll try."

"How many moves do you think the bearded man can survive under the hands of the Nine-Life Cat God?"

"I've never fought the Nine-Life Cat God, so I don't know...but the bearded man could only take three punches from me. Any more would be a miracle."

"It's worse than I expected. It seems like I gave another side dish to someone else..." Shi Yan lowered his head and sighed, with a dejected look on his face, "I just hope that the bearded guest will persevere and be stalked and beaten to death."

Just beat him to death."

Pang Qing's frown deepened, and he shrugged his nose and asked, "You know clearly that he is here to deliver food, why do you still let him go? Isn't this just a warning?"

"What I want is to alert the snakes and let them make random guesses, so that the water in Yuecheng will be turbid enough..." A strange smile appeared on the corner of Shi Yan's mouth, and he said calmly, "And in a while, the Empress of Tang will come to Daqing.

Now, what do you think she would do if she knew that her shadow swordsman died in the hands of those people?"

Pang Qing glanced at Shi Yan with disdain and deliberately took two steps away, "I hate you scoundrels hiding behind your back and scheming. If you were not my mentor's disciple, I would definitely beat you every time I see you!"

"Wu Chi, there is a saying you must keep in mind... The courage of one person is only one person after all. Even if you are as strong as you and the Nine-Life Cat God, they are only a drop in the ocean in the overall situation. If a hundred people can't kill you, then a thousand will kill you.

People, ten thousand people, one hundred thousand people... Only by winning the overall situation can we have a future. The gain or loss of one child is not important, so don't be so impulsive in many cases and learn to think calmly, so that you can have the last laugh." Shi Yan saw Pang Qing's face full of emotion.

Looking thoughtful, he nodded happily and said, "Okay, I feel that my words have touched your heart, so I won't say any more. How much you can understand depends on your nature. Wait and see how I show it.

The wisdom of looking at the overall situation..."

After saying that, Shi Yan quickly walked to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, straightened his clothes, knocked on the gate a few times, and waited quietly with a smile on his face.

After a cup of tea, there was still no movement inside the door. Pang Qing became a little impatient and muttered, "You knocked too softly. Maybe they didn't hear me. Look at me..." He took a step forward and made a fist with his right hand.

He banged the door three times and shouted wildly, "Is anyone breathing? We have a visitor!"

Shi Yan glared at Pang Qing and scolded, "Pay attention to your etiquette! Don't let people think that people from Kyoto are uneducated and look down on us..."

At this moment, the door creaked open a crack. The lame old housekeeper looked at Shi Yan and Pang Qing through the crack in the door and said coldly, "If you want leftovers, go to the back door and wait. Why are you knocking here?"

Knock, don’t you understand the rules?”

"Do we look like beggars? Are there such dignified beggars as us?" Shi Yan was startled when he heard this, pointed at himself and Pang Qing, his face twitched and said, "We are here to find..."

"You're looking for relatives, right?" The old housekeeper interrupted Shi Yan rudely and said with a straight face, "The relatives of the guests should go through the small door on the left, and the relatives of the servants should go through the small door on the right. You can go find them yourself!"

"No..." Shi Yan tried his best to keep the smile on his face and explained, "We are not poor relatives who came to seek refuge with some servants in the mansion..."

"Then what are you here for? Are you also a gangster who wants to win, drink and eat in the city lord's mansion by virtue of your skills?"

"No, actually we are here to find..."

Just when Shi Yan was about to explain his purpose, Shen Qi, who was carrying a birdcage made of pure red sandalwood and inlaid with gold wire, came over from the other side of the street and hummed a tune. When he stepped through the gate, he glanced sideways at Shi Yan and his expression turned cold.

"It's you? Why did you come to my house? Oh... Needless to say, I know it! I must have suppressed the Yanyulou Poetry Club, and you feel unhappy and want to seek bad luck on me, right? Okay, it just so happens that this young master is also here.

I have nowhere to vent my anger..." He turned to look at the lame old housekeeper and said angrily, "Old dog, what are you doing here? Why don't you help me teach these two bastards a lesson? Don't beat them to death. The rest will be left behind."

Leave half your life to me for fun!"

The lame old housekeeper looked at Shi Yan and Pang Qing, sighed softly, shook his head and said, "It turns out they are seeking revenge... Anyway, there is a road to heaven if you don't take it, and there is no door to hell, so you will have to throw yourself into it, so let you remember it for a long time."

Well, don’t dare to offend anyone!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the lame old housekeeper opened the door, stepped out of the door, stretched out his right palm, and moved towards Shiyan as fast as the wind. There was a faint sound of thunder under his palm.

Upon seeing this, Pang Qing immediately took a step forward and stood in front of Shi Yan. He turned his right hand into a palm in front of his chest and struck a palm blow with the old housekeeper. His eyes flashed and he said happily, "Ben Lei."

Palm?"

Bang! The two palms touched each other, and the two thunders collided. The energy spurted out in all directions, making the clothes of Pang Qing and the old housekeeper rustle.

The old housekeeper retracted his right palm, narrowed his eyes and said, "You can do it too?"

"Hey, I just killed an old bastard named Rong a while ago, and I picked it up from his body..." Pang Qing also took back his right palm, scratched his head, and smiled shyly, "I'm not too proficient in practice, I just

It can be used to fight mosquitoes and so on."

The coldness on the old butler's face became even more intense. He stepped forward with his lame left foot. Dust and smoke immediately began to appear. The floor tiles under his left foot fell apart. He said in a low voice, "Master, I'm afraid I won't be able to satisfy your wish today."

Yes, I plan to kill them directly!"

Shen Qi sat down on the threshold, rested his chin on the birdcage, and said with a smile, "It's okay, it's okay for me to watch the show from the side... But one thing, don't beat them to death too quickly, if I can't see

If you don’t have enough fun, I’ll have you beaten to death when you go back to make up for the lack of time.”

"You must work hard to satisfy the young master..." The old housekeeper took a deep breath, raised his left and right palms diagonally in front of his chest, and slowly raised his left foot, as straight as a loose ball.

The excitement in Pang Qing's eyes became more intense, "Interesting! Your left foot is two inches shorter than your right foot. You are born with a disability, but you can practice your leg skills to such a state. It is really amazing..." He lunged forward and opened his posture.

, said seriously, "Since you are good at kicking, then I will defeat you with kicking!"

The old butler snorted, swung out his left foot, struck Pang Qing hard, and said coldly, "Young people are always too arrogant!"

"Can you call me a young man if you are not arrogant?" Pang Qing chuckled, dodged sideways, twisted his right foot, flew out with his left foot, kicked out several afterimages as fast as lightning, and spat out a few words coldly.

, "Electric Poison Dragon Diamond!"

Bang bang bang! Several thunderbolts were heard in the air, the afterimages dispersed, and the two of them each took half a step back.

The old housekeeper was about to raise his leg to continue the attack, but when he heard a familiar sound of footsteps behind him, he immediately put down his left leg, stopped his body, and stood with his hands tied, as if nothing happened.

A string of hearty laughter sounded at the gate. Shen Rong stood behind Shen Qi at some point and looked at Shi Yan with enthusiasm. He said in a loud voice, "I said why my left eyelid keeps twitching today. It turns out to be chess."
