I didn't intend to become a fairy

Chapter 108 The Rumor of the Swordsman

At a street stall, two bowls of mutton soup cakes with meat, two people sitting opposite each other.

The Taoist brought a special bowl and put it on the bench beside him, where a three-coloured cat squatted.

"call……"

Nvxia Wu said to him while sucking on the soup cakes: "Although our Xishan school is in Yizhou, we are still a big school in Jianghu, and we still have something to do with it in Changjing. When I first came, I left the school where my master was young. As a good friend, I helped out in the Yongning Escort Bureau, but it was also a hard job. I don’t think there is any future. I worked for about a year. Last summer and autumn, I met a nobleman by chance, and now I’m helping that nobleman. I’m thinking about it. It’s about to be a great success.”

"Don't you have no old friends in Changjing?"

"That's my master's old friend, and I didn't know him before. But he was quite loyal and helped me a lot. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be able to gain a firm foothold in Changjing at the beginning, and maybe I wouldn't have Now." Wu Xia shook her head, "It's a pity that I was just about to repay him and get him to work for that nobleman, so he begged desperately. Alas, when I am old, I still go out to fight for wealth like others. It's really..."

"Like a doorman?"

"Almost."

"That's good too."

Being a guest of nobles in the capital, usually leisurely, not so much fighting and killing, food, clothing and housing are often good, and more money is given, it can be regarded as a better home for people in the world.Many people in the arena who want to leave and settle down can't find such a good home.

But this heroine is obviously not a disciple.

Song You didn't ask any more questions, he just put all the thinly sliced ​​mutton slices in the soup cakes to Sanhuamao, and asked in a low voice:
"Do you still remember the swordsman at the Liujiang Conference?"

"Which one?"

Wu Xia looked up at him: "Shu Yifan?"

"Correct."

"Why don't you remember!"

Wu Xia lowered her head and blew again, took a sip, and said: "In the past year, he has gained a great reputation in the Jianghu. Unless the news is too closed, everyone has heard of his name."

"I heard about it on the way here."

"Who said that?"

"The people of the rivers and lakes at the tea stand, the storyteller."

"Is it rumored that he is the number one swordsman in the world?"

"That's what Mr. Storyteller said."

"Storytellers like to sort out these things. It's really not interesting. It's not surprising that someday the number one in the world will be defeated by an unknown person." Wu Xia said, "But, Shu Yifan was called last year. What happened in Zhouzhou really shocked the whole Jianghu, so it is not surprising to have such a reputation."

"tell me the story."

"You don't eat meat?"

It was only then that Wu Suowei discovered that he had given all the meat to Sanhuamao.

"It's okay."

"Hey……"

Wu Xia shook her head, ignored it, and continued: "This starts with a major incident in the Jianghu 20 years ago. I also heard it from someone. It is said that 20 years ago, a family named Fei was called to the state. Lin Dehai of the Hanjiangmen destroyed his family after drinking. Outsiders spread the news that this kind of thing often happens in our Jianghu. In fact, it is very rare. We have only heard of it from the stories. Moreover, the government will not handle this kind of massacre. It made you feel better, so it shocked the whole Jianghu back then."

"Then Shu Yifan's original surname is Fei?"

"How do you know? But that's right! Shu Yifan's original surname is Fei, and he is the only child of the Fei family!"

Wu Xia temporarily put down her chopsticks: "The Hanjiangmen is the largest Jianghu sect in Zhaozhou, and Lin Dehai is also the No. He is the number one swordsman in the world. This man is very proud. He wiped out all the Fei family back then, leaving only the son of the Fei family. After practicing a good swordsmanship, I actually found it back."

Then she paused:
"At the Liujiang Conference, I originally wanted to compete with him. First, I felt that I might not be able to beat him. I was afraid of losing face. Second, I felt that there was something wrong with this person."

"what is the problem?"

"He only picks people with knives!"

"so……"

Song You also realized at this time.

It seemed so at the time.

"Look—"

Wu Xia said: "When people come to you, they are not only good at martial arts, but also fully prepared."

"and after?"

"Later I heard that he took advantage of Lin Dehai's arrogance..." Wu Xia spoke with relish, as if she was more energetic than when she heard it the first time, "The Hanjiangmen are also considered to be a famous school in Zhaozhou. One hundred is also eighty. Even if Shu Yifan is really the best swordsman in the world, it is impossible for him to pick up the entire Hanjiangmen with one sword. But guess what happened to him? He wrote a letter directly and told Lin Dehai to come and find him himself. He's gone, tell Lin Dehai to get ready."

"He dismissed his disciples?"

"It's almost like this." Wu Xia sighed, "Tsk tsk, I heard that that night, it was the Jingzhe last year, when the lightning flashed and thundered, and the sword, light and sword shadow were brighter than the thunder."

"..."

Song You seemed to have a picture in his mind.

Cold and rainy night, lightning and thunder.

Hantie Guitou Dao, No. 1 in Zhaozhou, who wiped out all the families but left a boy who asked him to seek revenge, I am afraid that I also feel that I am invincible in the world, obsessed with martial arts, and full of pride.

The young swordsman, who bears a blood feud, has practiced hard for many years and is fully prepared. His courage is overwhelming, his sword is full of energy, and even evil spirits can be easily slashed by the sword.

If Jianghu also has a history book, this battle should be recorded in the history book of Jianghu.

"and after?"

"Don't you all know this?"

Wu Xia has already picked up the bowl: "However, there is also a son in Lin Dehai's family, who was born to a woman outside, and took that woman back the year before last, and took another concubine. Apart from the servants, the family is almost One wife, one concubine, one son, he probably never thought that he would lose, and he never sent them away..."

She paused at this point.

The chopsticks made a clinking sound in the bowl, driving almost all the soup cakes into the stomach, and then said:
"What do you think Shu Yifan did?"

"Do you want another bowl?"

"it is good!"

So I ordered another bowl for her, still adding meat.

"Everyone thought that he was going to use his own way to deal with his own body, but in fact it was not too bad... He also left behind Lin Dehai's son, told him his name, and asked him to practice martial arts. When I grow up, I can avenge him for killing my father." Wu Xia said with a smile, "This person is also full of pride, no wonder the storyteller praised him so highly. But he didn't kill Lin Dehai's female relatives."

"Is that so..."

"Do you think I can speak better than those storytellers?"

"Yes……"

"As a Taoist, you also like to hear this?"

"You can also taste some quack spirit."

"How can there be such a quack air? Aren't they all a bunch of bitter people? Who wants to do this kind of thing if they can eat better food? Oh, except for those with mental illness."

Wu Xia shook her head and concentrated on eating soup cakes.

Song You also lowered his head to eat, there was still half of the bowl left.

This mutton soup cake is also a wide noodle, but unlike Nanhua's soup cake which is almost two or three fingers wide, this one is only about one finger wide, and it is also thinner than Nanhua's soup cake, which has been stretched.The soup base made of lamb bones, with coriander and green onion and a few slices of thinly sliced ​​lamb, is also quite tasty. If you taste it carefully, you can also taste a little spice from the soup base.

By the way, this is West City.

Many merchants from the Western Regions are here, and they have seen many on the road during the day. The Western Market may also have the most abundant spices in the entire Dayan, and the price is unknown.

If you have time, go for a walk.

Unlike Song You who eats in a leisurely manner, people in the Jianghu eat vigorously, as if someone wants to grab her. When Wu Xia finished the second bowl, Song You had almost finished half of the bowl.

"Are you full?"

"full!"

"You can have another bowl."

"It's not that big. Besides, it's getting dark now. I haven't heard any news about the lifting of the curfew today. We should go back." Wu Xia got up, "Go and pay the bill."

"it is good."

Song You settled the bill.

He actually ate dozens of pennies.

Then the two and the cat walked back along the street, and there were very few pedestrians on the street.

This place is incomparable to those streets and alleys famous for their prosperity, night markets or flowers and willows. There are not many lights at night, only a smear of fiery red on the sky, and the fiery red is a beautiful gradient color. The corners of ancient buildings on both sides and the smooth The stone brick floor occasionally reflects these brilliance, and I feel calm when walking in it.

"There is a curfew in the past few days, and the shops have closed early. When it gets dark, not many people come out. Usually, there will be more people than now, and there are still a few shops open."

"Why the curfew?"

"It's not a monster..."

"The monsters under the emperor's feet are also so rampant."

"Isn't there a murder case every day at the feet of the emperor? The arrests in Changjing City are probably the busiest arrests in the world. People can kill people, and monsters are more capable and harder to catch. Wouldn't they be more troublesome?"

"Did you kill someone?"

"It's not just killing people, it's killing high officials, not just one, otherwise there would be such a big commotion."

"I heard that there is a City God in Changjing City."

"It doesn't work."

"..."

Song You frowned slightly.

"Don't be surprised!" Wu Xia laughed, "It's the same everywhere. Where there are more people, more money, and more complicated power entanglements, the chaos will be even more chaotic! Let alone the emperor's feet, maybe If the Son of Heaven wasn't here, it wouldn't be so chaotic!"

"So it is."

"I didn't say anything..."

"Yes."

"Let's talk in a low voice, otherwise we will suffer a lot if we are overheard..."

"Ah."

"Anyway, you should rest early, and wait until the imperial guards, county captains, and other things are cleared up, don't go out at night, and close the windows tightly, don't go out to watch when you hear noises at night, even if you have the ability, you can do more It’s better to have one less thing. When you come to Changjing, you can take a stroll and enjoy the prosperity of Changjing.”

"rational……"

Song You nodded.

Pausing for a while, he continued: "It's just that the money is almost spent on the next journey. I don't know if the heroine knows a suitable way to get money for a Taoist."

"Ok?"

Wu Xia looked at him suspiciously.

Sanhuamao walked ahead with cheerful small steps, and turned to look at him when he heard the words.

Wu Xia seemed to be interested, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, thinking for a long time: "I really don't know how people like you get money for a while, and I haven't seen other high-level people who are short of money. Let me think about it." ..."

"..."

"Yes! You must know spells, right? That one, that Yidu one, that one who stole money out of thin air, do you know it? If you do, I'll take you to the house of an evil official!"

"I don't have that ability."

"Then what do you know? Fortune-telling? You can go to those high-ranking officials and nobles, and I think you can pay for it."

"I don't have that ability either."

"Then what are your skills... Oh, I remembered!" The woman slapped her head and slowed down, "Your stewed beef is delicious! I have traveled all over the world, and I love it the most in my life, but I have eaten it all the way. In my heart, it can also be ranked among the top few, you can open a shop, use the first floor as a shop, and specialize in beef! I know where it is better to collect beef!"

"I'm really good at cooking, but it's too hard to open a restaurant. I've been exhausted all the way. I've been very lazy recently. Maybe one day I want to be diligent, so I will do what the heroine said."

"Then what will you do?"

"Exorcise evil spirits, cast down demons."

"How often?"

"It will."

"There are often rewards and arrest warrants at the gate of the city. Some of them are ghosts who are making trouble nearby or in the city. You can find an expert to cut them off. You can go and have a look when you have time." Wu Xia paused, "But this kind of thing is very tricky. , or it is troublesome and cheap, if it is so easy to do, the temples in the city and the Taoist temples outside the city are said to have real skills, and I don’t know how many folks there are. Don’t talk about those, it’s us Jianghu warriors, bold If you are full of blood, even if you are not proficient in this way, you can still chop up a few little monsters to exchange for money."

"Nvxia watched at the gate of the city yesterday, did you see anything?"

"Oh……"

But Nvxia Wu scratched her head: "I don't know many words, I just saw that they were all watching, and I pretended to read it when I was bored. If you want to know the details, you have to read it yourself. "

"I see."

"arrive."

"Don't let it go."

"They're all neighbors, don't say anything else, I can hear you if you walk upstairs at night." Wu Xia grinned, "I just hope you don't snore, you can do it, just keep your voice down. "

"it is good……"

The two opened their own doors.
