Chapter 114 Sneak Attack
"How can I persuade you, everyone is gone, can Da Zui go with him?"

Bai Zhantang also opened a stool and sat down, then said: "Seeing Dazui's depression, the shopkeeper said to help him find a matchmaker and introduce a more suitable match."

"Can this be done? Dazui agreed?"

Li Xin felt unreliable, Dazui couldn't let Yang Huilan go easily.

"I agreed with a half-push and a half-way. It's good to change my mood, just in case I meet someone more exciting."

As Bai Zhantang said, he came closer and lowered his voice, "Xiao Guo also agreed."

"What? She also wants to go on a blind date?"

Li Xin was slightly taken aback, feeling that this didn't quite fit Guo Furong's personality.

"She completely gave up on Xiao Lei, and she didn't want to continue to be sad, so she listened to the shopkeeper's advice and tried to find a new partner."

Bai Zhantang secretly glanced at Guo Furong who was not far away, and shook his head: "Xiao Guo's temperament will not change, and he wants to find a good family. I think it's Xuan."

Li Xin nodded, agreeing with his point of view.

Guo Furong is careless and bluffing, but she has learned martial arts and loves to use violence.

Ordinary people can't accept this kind of girl as a daughter-in-law.

Unless you also find someone who knows martial arts, preferably someone who is stronger than her and can suppress her, it will be a bit of a joke.

"Which matchmaker did the shopkeeper find?"

Li Xin asked again.

"Aunt Cai, the one with the best reputation on our East Street happens to be familiar to you. Why don't you take this opportunity to go and have a look together? On the evening of the day after tomorrow, Aunt Cai will arrange a place for blind dates to meet. face."

Bai Zhantang began to encourage Li Xin to come again.

"I don't have to."

Li Xin naturally refused.

"That's right, our two brothers will have different identities in the future. You are the third rank and I am from the third rank. How can ordinary people be worthy of us? I knew that the emperor... Before Mr. Song left, ask him if he has a younger sister who is ready to marry. It’s also good to arrange arrangements.”

Although Bai Zhantang spoke in a low voice, when mentioning the emperor, he was more cautious and changed his name to a false identity.

"Why, Brother Bai, do you still want to be a son-in-law? What about Shopkeeper Tong?"

Li Xin looked at him with a smile.

"Tsk, didn't I just think about it? Which ignorant boy didn't think about marrying a princess as his wife?"

"I can only think that Brother Li can do it. If you become a son-in-law, you will never be able to enjoy the glory and wealth in your life."

As Bai Zhantang talked, he closed his eyes and became intoxicated.

His imagination is really rich, and his ability to substitute is really strong, as if he can enter a daydream state at any time.

"Come on, I'm not in a hurry right now."

Li Xin was not interested in this.

Putting the topic aside, it didn't take long for Dazui to serve noodles and hard-boiled eggs, as well as a stack of pickled melons.

"Brothers, why don't you go on a blind date with me the day after tomorrow? It's my first time going, and I'm really nervous. You have to support me."

After putting down the tray, Da Zui also sat down, and smiled a little bit timidly.

His performance seemed to be seriously considering the blind date.

Li Xin was 100% sure that this was a complete illusion, probably Dazui had even deceived himself, thinking that he could really let go of Yang Huilan.

But as long as a period of time passes, he will find that his feet are stuck in the mud and it is difficult to extricate himself.

"I still have to study and practice calligraphy. I can't miss my homework. You can ask Brother Bai and Xiucai to go. They will definitely be enough to help you check."

Of course Li Xin refused.

Bai Zhantang twitched his lips when he heard this, he no longer believed what he said about reading and practicing calligraphy, he must be practicing martial arts!

Otherwise, how long has Li Xin been in contact with martial arts?There is no way to improve so fast!

Although I didn't see it clearly at the time, since Li Xin was able to seriously injure Huoyun evil god, he definitely had real abilities.

Even if it doesn't rely entirely on martial arts, it must have a certain level, otherwise the reaction power alone will not be enough, and it will be too late to make a move if you want to use any external force, and it will be difficult to deal with a master like Huoyun evil god.

Bai Zhantang didn't believe it, but he didn't expose it. He understood Li Xin's low-key approach very well.

And Dazui didn't force Li Xin's refusal. Indeed, as long as he was accompanied by Bai Zhantang and Lu Xiucai, he would have some confidence, and he wouldn't be too nervous at that time.

……

After breakfast, Li Xin didn't wander around outside, but went back to the house and went into the room to enter the space, and started to practice martial arts.

The day passed smoothly, and the next morning when I walked to Yihong Building, I found two beggars leaning against the outer wall next to the gate.

Su Can and Xiaomi.

The two were talking and laughing, bragging to each other there.

what's the situation?
Su Can's business ability is so strong?Break into the beggar gang all at once?

It's not bad to be able to mix with Xiaomi for at least a short time.

"Master Li, good morning! Let me introduce Xiao Su to you. He wandered over from the Kingdom of Jin last year. He used to be a small landlord, but now he is down and out. He can only eat once and be hungry."

Xiaomi took the initiative to say hello and introduce Su Can.

There was an obvious hint in the words that he was begging for something to eat.

"It's Xiaomi, why haven't I seen you for a while, I thought you moved away."

Li Xin smiled, first nodded to Su Can pretending to be unfamiliar, and then asked Xiaomi.

"Why move my nest? My nest has always been in the ruined temple on the east side. The town was not stable a while ago, so I have been staying in the ruined temple. Today is considered reopening."

As a member of the beggar gang, Xiaomi is relatively well-informed and has a good sense of danger.

He didn't know the details, but he could see the general direction. Knowing that the town was not flat, he hid in a ruined temple east of the town.

It is also one of the gathering places for people from the nearby beggar gang.

"Then to celebrate your opening, I'll ask Chai Jiu to warm up each of you with a bowl of wheat milk tea. Don't be polite to me!"

Li Xin said, without waiting for the other party to answer, he called Chai Jiu loudly to make barley milk tea for the two of them.

In fact, Chai Jiu had seen the two beggars a long time ago, but he despised beggars and didn't want to talk to them at all.

He didn't expect the head of the family to be so polite to the beggar, so he had to be more polite.

Obviously, he didn't recognize Su Canlai either.

The latter's face was deliberately dirty, his hair was completely loose on his shoulders, and although the clothes he was wearing were not too dirty, they were made of ordinary materials.

It was nothing like what Chai Jiu had seen.

"It's delicious! I've heard that Mr. Li's tea here is fragrant and sweet. Only after I tasted it did I know that the rumors are true."

After Chai Jiu brought two bowls of barley milk tea, Xiaomi took two mouthfuls of boredom, as if he was not afraid of the heat.

After drinking, he gave a thumbs up with a smile and kept praising.

Su Can next to him also pretended to drink for the first time, and praised a few words.

"Chai Jiu, grab some more peanuts and melon seeds for you two, it's too boring to just sit around."

Li Xin ordered again.

Chai Jiu naturally obeyed and gave Su Can and Xiaomi a handful of snacks mixed with peanuts and melon seeds.

"Oh, you are so particular, Mr. Li is really particular about people!"

Xiaomi said another word of flattery, and started eating melon seeds.

Su Can next to him imitated the example, and he acted like a beggar.

Ah Chan is really talented.

Li Xin thought to himself, he was about to go to the street to buy steamed stuffed buns when he saw Yan Xiaoliu hurried over.

Yan Xiaoliu didn't come to Yihonglou, but plunged into Tongfu Inn.

After entering, he talked to Bai Zhantang and others, then came out with his head down and scratching his ears.

"Hurry up Yan, what's bothering you?"

Li Xin asked casually.

But it frightened the other party slightly.

"Li, Mr. Li, you can call me Xiaoliu from now on. I'm looking for my master. He left his post several times to go drinking without authorization. He has been found by Tie Butou. Let me call the master over for questioning. "

After the failure last time, Yan Xiaoliu saw that Li Xin was not to be trifled with, and he no longer dared to put any blame on him.

"Really, Lao Xing might be able to buy alcohol somewhere. If you go around all the places that sell alcohol, you may be able to find him."

Li Xinxin thought that Xing Yusen's job as a fast catcher might not last long.

"I've searched all over. My master didn't become a headhunter and has been borrowing alcohol to get rid of his worries. The money was used to buy alcohol and drink, and it was all spent! There is no place to give him credit, so I came to Tongfu Try your luck at the inn."

Yan Xiaoliu also has some mobility.

And he also knew that the only place where Xing Yusen had no money to drink was the Tongfu Inn.

Only Tong Xiangyu would be so soft-hearted, giving old acquaintances credit all the time.

"Hey, with Lao Xing's ability, he couldn't be the head catcher in the first place, but now he's just returning to his original position, why aren't he happy? The Tie Shen catcher deserves his name, and Lao Xing is even better than half a hair of her. not on."

Xiaomi had already finished his barley milk tea, and now he was leaning there, cracking melon seeds, and talking sarcasticly.

"How do you talk, what are you not hairy, the iron catcher is a girl."

Li Xin blamed him.

"I said something wrong."

Xiaomi patted his mouth lightly.

"Why do you say that about my master, my master is called underappreciated!"

Yan Xiaoliu retorted loudly.

As an apprentice, his master's humiliation is equal to his own humiliation. No matter from which point of view, he must stand up and speak out.

"A guy who can't even hold a knife steadily, who goes to the ring competition and is played like a monkey by a woman, what talent can he have? What kind of future will you have by following him, why not come to my beggars' gang."

Xiaomi sneered.

And also mentioned the glorious deeds of Xing Yusen.

"I don't allow you to say that about my master!"

Yan Xiaoliu was in a hurry.

"I didn't mention him, and I didn't name him. Hehe, you also know that he's not good at martial arts?"

Xiaomi laughed, and the sarcasm became stronger.

"Who said, my master's martial arts is very high!"

Yan Xiaoliu forcefully said.

"Well, high! It's really high, I can't even hold my horse's stance stably, and my foot is so soft, no wonder Yang Huilan kicked her away in two or three hits."

Xiaomi said it as if he saw it with his own eyes.

In fact, he was not there at the time, but the scene was too funny, and Xing Yusen was too embarrassing.

So it spreads widely.

If Li Xin's reputation is getting better and better recently, then Xing Yusen's reputation is getting worse and worse.

Not the notorious kind, but the humiliating and laughable kind.

"Then, he is too lazy to prick."

Yan Xiaoliu continued to argue.

"He's too lazy to pierce, why don't you just let you do it?"

What Xiaomi said was the normal before.

However, since the serial murder case happened, Yan Xiaoliu spent a lot of time with Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce, and temporarily alienated him from Xing Yusen.

"Hahaha, what can he teach you? After worshiping such a master, you will be unlucky for eight lifetimes, and you will never be successful."

Xiaomi laughed loudly and stood up, saying sarcasm and walking away gradually.

Seeing him leaving, Su Can didn't follow him, and he understood the principle of going too far and proceeding step by step.

"When you are a fast catcher, you don't rely on your martial arts skills, but your wisdom! It's your wisdom!"

Yan Xiaoliu blushed from being ridiculed, and yelled behind Xiaomi's back.

Although he is stupid, after following Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce for a while, he also knows what it means to be capable and have real materials.

After a comparison, it became clear that the master I worshiped was an idiot.

It's a pity that once the master-student relationship is established, it is more difficult than reconciliation between husband and wife, and it is almost bound for a lifetime.

So he had no choice, whether voluntarily or forcedly, he could only defend Xing Yusen.

"Xiao Liu, you're right. Wisdom is the most important thing for a fast arrest. Otherwise, Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun are just ordinary scholars. How could they have become so famous because they solved the case?"

"I heard that especially Mr. Bao, because of the title of the most intelligent person, the matchmakers who came to the door broke the threshold. It can be seen that intelligence is much more useful than martial arts."

Tong Xiangyu came out at this moment, comforting Yan Xiaoliu with her logic.

Bai Zhantang, Da Zui and others also came out to pat him on the shoulder one by one, or spoke words of comfort.

It wasn't until Yan Xiaoliu calmed down and left, and continued to look for Xing Yusen, that Tong Xiangyu and the others showed complicated expressions.

Apparently everyone knew that Xiaomi's words were harsh, but they didn't talk nonsense.

Xing Yusen just wasn't capable.

Li Xin was somewhat familiar with this scene. He looked around and observed, but he didn't find where Xing Yusen was hiding to eavesdrop.

This avoids being hit directly.

But it was inevitable to hear the wind soon.

Li Xin didn't care about this, he greeted everyone and went for a walk on the street.

……

A few days later, Li Xin returned to the town from the cemetery in the north.

When he came home, Yurong handed him a letter, saying that it was delivered by Tie Feihua today.

Tie Feihua delivering a letter?

After Li Xin took it, he saw that the envelope was still sealed with wax. When he opened it, there was only a piece of letter paper inside.

It was only about 20 characters long, but the writing was beautiful. The content was to ask him to go to the Louzhi County Mansion as soon as possible to discuss important matters in detail.

Looking at the signature again, it turns out that the letter was written by Lou Zhixian.

"It's probably about the Nine Dragons Sun and Moon Zun."

Before the emperor left, there was only one thing that he specifically confessed.

Lou Zhixian didn't know that Li Xin had been named the commander-in-chief of the Tianji Guard.

But the emperor mentioned to him that the Nine Dragons Sun and Moon Zun would be handed over to Li Xin.

In the eyes of Lou Zhi County, Li Xin is the emperor's emissary.

It is also suspected that he was the hero who rescued him before, so the words and sentences in the letter are more polite.

Li Xin silently put away the letter, and planned to go to the town center to meet Lou Zhixian tomorrow.

call out!
However, when Li Xin was most relaxed in receiving the letter, a dart was shot down obliquely from a certain direction, aiming at the vitals of his neck.

"Um!?"

Li Xin's hair stood on end in an instant, and without thinking about it, he pushed his waist backwards, and avoided the sneak attack of the dart with a rolling motion of a backside roll.

shhhhh!

Before he could stand still, two more darts were shot.

This time there was less suddenness, and Li Xin was more calm, using his lightness kung fu to dodge with all his strength.
