Peach Blossom Button

In mid-spring, the moon is in harmony and the air is clear.

Big peach blossoms are in full bloom in front of the window, like a bright girl in light pink clothes, smiling and looking at the carved window lattice, the breeze sends the faint fragrance of flowers into the wine shop, making the mellow wine even more intoxicating.

The aroma of wine makes people want to get drunk, and the peach blossoms lean against the window to laugh at guests.Orchids with high noses and deep eyes shuttled between the taverns, dressed in bright clothes, serving exotic delicacies to the guests, like clusters of bright flames dancing in this noisy tavern.

In the city of Yuzhou, which is located in the port, there are many guests from other countries. These foreign guests have traveled thousands of miles through sea trade routes and set foot on the land of Dahuang.In the most prosperous street market in Yuzhou City, there are many shops and restaurants opened by Hu people, and the local people have long been used to this kind of life.

"This little lady, do you want to be happy with the masters?"

In the noisy tavern, a few drunks grabbed a plainly dressed young woman, talking frivolous nonsense, and Yuxi began to move his hands and feet by virtue of his drunkenness.

"Let me go!" At first the woman was a little afraid to speak, but as their behavior became more and more excessive, the woman finally yelled unbearably. In the tavern, such incidents of a drunk man belittling a woman happened every day, and her increasingly shrill screams were drowned out in the clamor.

"Call again! If you yell again, I will kill you on the spot!" The rude hands that started to pull on the woman's clothes directly grabbed her slender neck by virtue of the drunkenness.

There was wine in the cup, and peach petals fell from the top of the wine, but such a white porcelain cup full of wine turned into a white rainbow in an instant, and threw it straight at the drunken head of the frivolous woman!In an instant, the drunk fell down in response, a large white and red flower bloomed from the white porcelain cup on the drunk's head, and the blood-stained pieces of white porcelain fell to the ground. resting on the scarlet blood.

The Orchid who served the wine screamed in fright, and scattered like a frightened bird, but the woman who was frivolous was stunned on the spot, and the other drunks raised their dim eyes and looked at the place where the white porcelain wine glass was thrown.

By the window, peach blossoms extend their branches into the house, pink and tender flowers swaying in the wind, a young man in black is sitting at the table by the window, he has a jug of wine in his hand, but the wine glass is missing.At this time, his eyes swept towards those drunk men, and in his eyes, it was as if a sharp knife had come out of its sheath, extremely sharp.

Most of the drunks woke up suddenly, but one of them sneered: "Hmph, which hero I thought I was, turned out to be a messy brat!"

"Boy, in this rivers and lakes, those who are meddling in their own business will not end well!"

But the young man in black remained silent. He picked up the long sword on the table and walked towards these people step by step. Those drunk men had fierce eyes and were ready to fight. But he passed them by and walked up to the woman.

"Is it okay?" He raised his eyes, and his sharp gaze swept towards the dazed woman.

The young man had no expression on his face. He happened to be dressed in black, with a small scar on his face. His whole body was like a sharp knife drawn out of its sheath. With this plain sentence, the woman who immediately asked hesitated and dared not make a sound.Seeing the woman shaking like a sieve, the young man didn't say anything, he said another sentence to the woman: "Let's go."

After all, he didn't care about the woman, he threw the wine money to the dumbfounded waiter, and went straight out with the sword in his hand, but at this moment, his five fingers turned into claws, and he grabbed her behind with a strong wind. The young man seemed to have eyes behind his back, and immediately turned his body to one side. At the same time, the long sword in his hand seemed to be drawn out of its sheath like lightning, and stabbed with the strong wind!But the opponent is obviously also a martial arts practitioner, and the sword strikes and is stuck between the two fingers.Just now, one of the drunks caught the young man's unexpected sword with just two fingers, and then, a palm wind hit the young man holding the sword again.In an instant, the sword that was firmly gripped by the iron fingers slipped through the fingers like a snake, and the young man dodged the thunderous palm nimbly, and then kicked away the person who was trying to sneak attack behind him, The young man in black fell to the ground like a shadow, staring at the drunks surrounding him with icy eyes.

"Boy! Do you know who you've offended!" The drunk man showed his fierceness just now, and rushed towards the young man with a roar. The palm wind was stronger than before. It was Shengsheng who lifted up the long table with wine and vegetables, and with the sound of shattering bowls and chopsticks accompanied by ear-piercing screams, they all smashed at the silent young man in black.This one person was not enough, except for the drunk man lying on the ground whose life and death were unknown, the others also put on a posture and attacked the swordsman together.

These people have different martial arts routines, and they all have two brushes.Although the black-clothed young man possessed special skills, he was obviously inexperienced. It was fine to fight alone. Once he encountered this kind of melee, he gradually lost his original advantage. It happened that those people had different martial arts styles, but they cooperated very well. When the foot sweeps, it must be received with a fist, and after a knife is blocked, a claw strikes, it is almost like a person with three heads and six arms, and the coordination is seamless, even the young man in black is as light as a swallow, and his swordsmanship is outstanding, he can't beat him. These are some troublesome drunks.Gradually, his sword slowed down, and the young man in black stared at the movements of these people, looking for a breakthrough point.

"Capturing the leopard's claws, punching the tiger, sweeping the jackal's legs, and the red wolf sword technique are interesting."

The white fan swayed slightly, and when the black-clothed youth was struggling, one of them leaned against the escalator on the second floor.A pair of peach-blossom eyes were still slightly drunk, the man in white looked at the mess downstairs, but laughed out loud: "If I were you, I would stab the Jianjing acupoint that uses punches, and then hit the Shangwan acupoint that uses kicks." .”

Hearing this voice, the young man in black was startled at first, but then he clenched the sword in his hand tightly again, following the teaching of the man in white, he waved his sword a few times, but the man with the fist obviously also heard what the man in white said, and suddenly Nervously protecting his shoulders, being pressed by the sword edge, he retreated again and again.

"Hey! Don't mess around, that kid can't hit you..." The man with strong legs just shouted, but at this moment, the black figure in front of him rushed towards him, and he wailed, clutching his stomach and falling Falling to the ground, the young man in black had already passed the fist-wielding man who was retreating repeatedly, and flashed in front of him, only to be stabbed into the abdominal acupoint by the scabbard, and the kick-wielding man was instantly thrown out. , landed straight on the long table by the wall, splashing vegetable soup all over, and the formation of these four people suddenly became chaotic.Without waiting for the man in white to continue to guide, the young man in black flew up to the other people with his sword, and with a flick of the blade, the four "wolves, tigers and leopards" were immediately beaten to pieces, covered in vegetable soup, and fell to the ground of the restaurant .

Seeing that the young man in black had already cleaned up the four of them, the man in white shook his fan and laughed. The woman standing in the crowd, finally, her eyes fell on the young man in black.

"These four are 'masters' of the local 'Sea Sand Gang'. Their martial arts can't be said to be superior, but their cooperation is acceptable." The peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and the man in white made a bow to the swordsman in black, and said with a smile: "And Goodbye, Tao Shaoxia."

The black-clothed swordsman is naturally Tao Mo. At this time, Tao Mo stared blankly at the white-clothed man who seemed to descend from the sky in front of him, and the scene in his mind suddenly returned to the Senluo Villa in the rain a few months ago, which made him fall into the abyss In the past few days, whether it was the mysterious heavenly pavilion, the mysterious puppet technique, or the murder on a rainy night, to this day, it still makes his back shiver.

Bai Wangyan.

This name, like the bright moonlight in the night, led him out of the darkest predicament, but it was also this name that made his omniscient uncle extremely jealous, and even asked him to stay as far away from this white-clothed scholar as possible.As for the deceitful incident at Senluo Villa, he still can't figure it out clearly. Those words left by Mr. Ge are too difficult to understand, everything is as if covered by rain and fog, making it hard to see clearly.

Seeing that the young man in black was still silent, Bai Wangyan seemed to be preoccupied. For a moment, even he himself hesitated. Maybe it was not the right time to come out. Is this Tao Mo still hiding from him?Or is there some other hidden secret, could it be that something happened that I don't know about in the past few months?Bai Wangyan put away the folding fan, and looked at the black-clothed swordsman in front of him with a little hesitation, his self-confidence suddenly subsided.

"Oh, Mr. Bai, why did you go out..." Just when Bai Wangyan didn't know what to say, two well-dressed old men with long beards ran down from the second floor and rushed to Bai Wangyan's side one after the other. , but when they were about to continue talking, one of the old men glanced at the four people in the mess, and the drunk man who had finally regained his senses and got up rubbing his bruised forehead from being hit by the wine glass. Startled, the white beard hanging down to his chest couldn't help but tremble.

"This, this is... the second son of the city lord?"

Second son?Bai Wangyan raised his eyebrows. It turns out that the drunk who was knocked unconscious by Tao Mo's wine glass is the second son of the city lord of Yuzhou City. His name is... Si Xu, right?He vaguely remembered that the second son of Si usually likes to collude with these miscellaneous scum of the rivers and lakes, and these messy gangs of the rivers and lakes have also become the local snakes by virtue of the reputation of the second son of the city lord.Bai Wangyan never had a good impression of this kind of person, so he sneered, "So what."

"Oh, those who fell on the ground were not the four protectors of the Haisha Gang? This is too bad, Mr. Bai, you should run away with your friends..." These two old men were local literati. Being close to martial arts, he was so frightened for a moment that he trembled like chaff.

"Ah, the four protectors," Bai Wangyan nodded, but he didn't take it to heart at all. He turned to smile at Tao Mo, "Tao Shaoxia, I haven't seen you in a few months, do you still remember the appointment? It's inconvenient here, let's leave as soon as possible." After that, he glanced at the woman who brought up the cause of the incident, and said with a smile: "If the girl has such leisure time to watch the excitement, she should leave as soon as possible. The best place."

Being secretly ridiculed by the man in white, the woman bit her lower lip, thanked Tao Mo hurriedly, and walked out the door quickly with the drinks she bought.

Tao Mo looked at the man in white who seemed to have fallen from the sky, and was silent for a while, before he could say, "Thank you." After that, he turned around and left, leaving behind Bai Wangyan who was standing where he was.

This is really... cruel.Bai Wangyan was a little embarrassed by his evasive attitude. The man in white sighed, and was about to lift his legs to leave, but stopped abruptly.

"It's really hard to see that these four Haisha Gang protectors are not good at martial arts, but they are really good at reporting."

Stopped, Bai Wangyan laughed out loud, and pulled the folding fan in his hand vigorously, he turned his head suddenly, a cold light appeared in his eyes, which made the five big and three thick burly men who were half lying on the ground tremble all over.

At this time, Tao Mo stepped out of the door of the wine shop, and the street, which was usually crowded with people, was completely silent at this moment.
