Chapter 3 Little People Talk
Update time:2012-11-27
When Li Yu squeezed out of the bustling market, it was already a quarter of an hour later. He didn't see the two young figures along the way. They should have left long ago and were heading towards the city gate.
It was not yet noon and there were not many people in front of the city gate. The few guards guarding the city stood attentively at the city gate and occasionally looked at the passers-by. These people appeared to be the hawks of the imperial court, but in fact they had already been bribed by several big gangs in Hangzhou.
Otherwise, it would be good to be able to stand here just with those low-level salaries. In terms of martial arts skills, they can't even beat the most ordinary disciples of Jianghu sects, but if they have to test their eyesight to see who has more money in their pockets, they will definitely be considered good players.
"Stop." Just when Li Yu was approaching the city gate, a shout broke through the leisurely and cautious pedestrians at the city gate. For a moment, they became a little panicked.
The two guards walked directly towards Li Yu. One of them stared straight at him and walked to his side after a while. I saw this man with thick eyebrows and big eyes wearing an ordinary military uniform.
More heroic than the others. "Take the package and check it." As the other guard spoke, the two of them were already behind Li Yu.
"You two military masters, I don't want to go out of the city and take this money to drink tea." Li Yu looked back and saw that the person speaking was an old man in simple clothes. His stooped and thin body did not look much stronger than a child. No, this old man is not an ordinary person.
He subconsciously came to this conclusion when he saw the hands holding the package tightly.
The guard who spoke weighed the money in his hand and gave a proud look to his companion. The loud shout just now was what he shouted. If he had yelled a little later, the old man might have left. "Hurry up, hurry up!"
Isn't the city gate a place for you to wander around?"
Hearing this, the old man was overjoyed and nodded obsequiously to the two guards, bowing his head and preparing to leave. "Wait a minute." He had only taken two steps when he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind, but it was not the person who stopped him.
"I'll give you back the silver." Duan Nanfeng, who dared not speak out despite his companion's anger, stepped up behind the old man and stretched out his hand to hand over the things in his hand, but it turned out to be a piece of silver that was not light in weight.
The old man's body was always tense. He had been in and out of the city gate more than once or twice. When he was about to leave the city as usual today, the outstanding young man at the city gate made him hesitate. It was all just because of him.
I got to know this young man. "Master Jun, this money is my filial piety and I will give it to you two for tea. You don't have to pay it back." While holding on to the backpack tightly, he answered with a trembling voice.
"Huh, I'll give it back to you if I say so." Duan Nanfeng saw that the old man seemed to be frightened and didn't even dare to turn his head back. At the same time, he felt sad and took a few steps closer.
Although the old man never looked back, he was clearly aware of the movement behind him. His already extremely nervous mood was suddenly intensified due to Duan Nanfeng's approach, and he subconsciously used Qinggong. However, he did not wait for his luck to leave.
The old sleeves of his clothes tightened and someone grabbed him. In an instant, his feet went weak and he almost fell down.
"Take it." A trace of hesitation flashed in Duan Nanfeng's heart, but after sizing it up, he just stuffed the money into his sleeve and turned away. Compared to the old man whose hands and feet were trembling, the young man just now attracted his attention more.
.
Li Yu sighed slightly in his heart and avoided the eye-catching sight. He was sure that there must be something wrong with the old man who seemed to be walking unsteadily. He deliberately approached for a few moments and smelled a familiar smell. Walking together?
"Hey, come with me for examination." Duan Nanfeng's frequent attention quickly attracted the attention of his companion. He was already a little unwilling and immediately yelled at Li Yu. Look at his arrogant look.
It seems that if the target is not obeyed, he will fight.
Li Yu naturally ignored the roaring shouts and looked at Duan Nanfeng with something else secretly in his eyes.
"Forget it, go back." Duan Nanfeng frowned and thought for a moment, then grabbed his companion's collar and walked towards the city gate. As expected, the young man had some skills. He could clearly feel a breath just now, although it was not too strong.
Li Yu glanced at the back of the steadfast figure and suddenly felt that he looked familiar. Of course, this was just a feeling. I don't know if that person has returned to Dali City. As a member of the Dali Duan family, he must be his first choice here!
As the crowds at the city gate came in and out, time passed quietly like running water, but the two figures Li Yu was waiting for never appeared. Didn't they just leave the city directly? Although this possibility is very small.
From time to time, Duan Nanfeng's eyes would shift to the figure sitting quietly in the tea shed in the distance, and he would secretly praise the other person's patience. From time to time, his doubts would become even greater.
"Come again..." Just as Li Yu was about to add another pot of tea, two belated figures appeared in his sight. Even though he changed his words and said, "The account will be settled." He was not in a hurry to follow him based on his speculation.
It would take a lot of twists and turns for the two of them to get out of the city. Before they could let go of this thought, as expected, there was movement from the other side of the city gate.
It wasn't just who started the trouble first. The guards at the city gate had all drawn out their weapons and immediately surrounded the two people.
"Hey, I just want to check. I want to see if it's your brain that's stronger or my sword that's stronger." The one who spoke was the guard who wanted to stop Li Yu earlier. He had already drawn the knife five times this afternoon.
The two young men obviously did not expect that the other would do it right away. After looking at each other, they could only see helplessness in each other's eyes.
"Master Jun misunderstood my brother, you don't mean that. Look..." The first person to speak in the tense atmosphere was another young man, Li Yu, who seemed to be called xxxx.
The guard was immediately happy when he saw this. This should be the result he wanted, and he was about to go over to collect the money. "Che". Who knew that a slight sound suddenly penetrated into his ears, and the contemptuous tone made him almost stop.
The knife was stabbed in the past. "Damn it, I suspect you are spying. Go and lean against the wall to check."
Duan Nanfeng has been just leaning against the city wall. If you look closely, you can see a faint layer of true energy lingering around him, obviously he is studying on his own. As for what happened there, he did not interfere anymore. Just now he felt that
When he was breathing heavily, he suddenly had some realization in his heart. This was the time when his mind was free of distractions.
"Master Jun..." The young man surnamed Liu knew it was bad as soon as he heard this. He had known that his brother's temper was so bad and he should rest for a night before leaving. But what surprised him was that although he didn't know the guard in front of him, he often came and went.
I have the impression that I usually smile and just collect money. I don’t know where I got so angry today.
The guard didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, raised his sword and slashed at him, then said viciously: "Stop talking nonsense and let me lie down. By the way, remember to take off all your clothes so that I can inspect you."
When these words full of insults came out, the young man who had lowered his head and swallowed his anger suddenly became angry. "Why do you want us to take off our clothes? If you say we are naughty, then we are naughty. People who don't know this kind of authority think that
Where did the master come from? Go..."
"Little brother." The young man surnamed Liu saw his brother becoming more and more rude and immediately scolded him softly to stop him. "The military master really misunderstood. The military master who often goes to mine outside the city as our brothers should have the impression.
." As he said this, he was anxious and took out all the money he had, holding it in his hands and handing it over.
The guard was determined to teach these two ungrateful guys a lesson, but after looking at the rough palms, his mind wavered. There were piles of copper and silver in those thick calloused palms.
It seems that the weight is really heavy. But if he suddenly softens in front of everyone, how will he be able to mess around in the future? "You will know what this is about if you check it carefully."
When the young man surnamed Liu heard this, he was overjoyed. The euphemistic meaning was obvious. He immediately walked over without caring about the shining sword and holding the money.
"If we are all like spies like this, why don't we let those spies be ashamed to death!" Listening to his brother's unimportant words, the young man surnamed Liu sighed secretly in his heart while maintaining a smile. He still has no experience in the world.
ah!
The guard who was waiting for the money to be put into his bag immediately became happy when he heard that, "Oh, then tell me what kind of dress is a good dress and let me know." Why are you angry for the sake of money?
All can be thrown away.
"Brother, stop talking."
"Oh don't let him say it. I just want to hear this. If I really catch Jian Xi, I will kowtow to you and thank you." The sarcastic tone was not covered by the smell of copper.
The young man was happy when he heard this. By coincidence, he actually knew someone. "Is this true?"
"Why don't you take it seriously? Just tell me." After pouring the money into his pocket, the guard left a piece of broken silver in his hand to weigh.
At this time, the young man surnamed Liu turned around and gave his brother a fierce wink. When he walked past him, he whispered, "Don't get into trouble, it's important to get out."
"We don't know whether we are going here alive or dead. You are still worried about this and that." The young man obviously disagreed with his brother's attitude. He wanted to see how embarrassed the guard was by kowtowing to him.
Feel free to do so.
The guard originally just thought he was talking nonsense, but when he heard this, he suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart, and he was too lazy to play with the money in his hands.
