Relief

Liang Ting, the son of the young owner of the Liang family and the daughter of Hu Zhongdao, was a victim of a backyard struggle in the play.

And Mr. Kong, the best rap artist in Suzhou, has a sonorous rhythm in his recitation, and his opera tune is like a pearl on a jade plate.

Xie Zhixu asked doubtfully, "Mr. Kong...uh, Mr. Liang's voice doesn't seem to be a problem."

From the corner of the eye, he caught a glimpse of Wu Li's face suddenly gloomy, his brows were tangled, Xie Zhixu was taken aback.

The guest sitting next to him probably misunderstood what Xie Zhixu meant, and replied, "Hello? Do you have to be dumb and ugly, or simply become dumb to have a voice problem? You are simply a jewel in obliterating Gong Tiao's singing." !"

Xie Zhixu hurriedly said, "Don't dare."

Yue Guanshan listened to their conversation, and became interested, and asked: "Since it is the place of Mr. Liang's family, why doesn't the Liang family come to control the place?"

"Little brother, although the Xiaoliang family dominates Taihu Lake, the Liang family dominates Pingjiang Mansion. The manor is built like a palace. Have you ever seen a palace where people come and go at will? Except for festivals and gatherings, the Liang family almost Never showing his face in front of people, because the eldest son condescended to be an entertainer in public, it is said that the Liang family almost smashed the spring bottle, hey!"

Xie Zhixu also pricked up his ears to inquire about the news of the Liang family, and looked sideways to see Wu Li with his head bowed, his face buried in the dim light, his expression unclear.

"what happened?"

Wu Li raised his palm and waved it imperceptibly.

On the stage, Mr. Kong's singing was coming to an end.

That young master Liang, who was born in a high family and deep house, was supposed to grow up as proud and noble as many stars and moons with a golden spoon in his mouth, but his voice was destroyed at birth, and he became a mute and disabled Young Master Liang. Just rebellious.

Others don't want him to show his eyes in front of people, but he wants to show his face and look down on his duck voice. He wants to make a living by rapping and singing palace tunes. On the most eye-catching high platform, he narrated.

"it is good!"

"Wonderful!"

There was applause everywhere.

Yue Guanshan continued to communicate with the guests seated next to him in high tones.

"...Except for Mr. Kong's night performance in Chunzun, you don't want to see the Liang family at any other time... When you enter Liangmen, you have to hand over the greeting card, and it's the same for everyone...Golden knife and silver gun? What gold knife and silver gun?"

Mr. Kong and the musicians stood up from their chairs, and they were sent off with applause and cheers.

A gust of wind blew past Xie Zhixu's ears, and the wooden tube on the dining table clanged.The next moment, the railing on the second floor creaked, Yueguanshan stepped on the soles of his boots, his black fur flew up, and a flash of lightning shot out between his fingers.

Almost at the moment when the lightning disappeared between the fingers of Yueguan Mountain, a chopstick passed through the curtain and nailed it to the door frame, nailing back the curtain that had been raised by Mr. Kong.

So fast no one noticed.

Yue Guanshan stepped on the railing with his elbows on his knees——

"Young Master Liang, please stay."

The fiery red tip of the fur danced in the light, and a corner of it was lifted to reveal the lean and thin warrior's short robe attire.

"In Yueguan Mountain in Xialiangzhou, if you want to ask the Liang family for their golden sword and silver gun, please ask Mr. Liang to introduce it for you—"

With his back turned to the spectators, Mr. Kong raised a hand under his narrow sleeve to pull out the bamboo chopsticks nailed to the curtain.The musician beside him suddenly turned his head, with sharp eyes and quick hands, he quickly pulled Mr. Kong away with a horizontal hand.

Invisibly, it seemed as if a ferocious beast was charging towards the curtain, stabbing and tearing the strips of bamboo chopsticks, the gust of wind brushed past, and the curtain fell slowly.

The curtain was riddled with holes.

The accident happened so suddenly that no one could react.In the silence, Mr. Kong leaned over and picked up the tattered cloth.

Two feet away, the voice is especially close at hand, and it is still a tactful and delicate singing.

"The night rain hits the tiles, Liangzhou Yuejia?"

Mr. Kong looked to the second floor.

Leaning on the railing in the private room, Yue Guanshan withdrew his palms and said the last sentence——

"Here is the greeting card."

Xie Zhixu heard his senior brother Wu Li gasped, so he understood that the origin of Yueguan Mountain might not be simple.

The next moment, everyone in the restaurant came to life one after another.A group of spectators closest to the stage slapped the table and pulled out several gleaming steel knives from under the table.

The cold light intertwined awe-inspiringly, cutting off the candles in the building and splashing them everywhere. Xie Zhixu was blinded by the flash, and immediately grabbed Wu Li's wrist: "Oops!"

"Who dares to be presumptuous to the eldest son!!"

The spectators armed with knives rushed towards the second floor aggressively, and the place they passed was chaotic.

Wu Li also grabbed Xie Zhixu with his backhand, and said in multiple voices: "Oops, oh, oh, junior, let's go!"

But it was too late, Yueguan Mountain was in their private room, and the group of spectators disguised as family soldiers rushed up to the private room.

Yueguanshan is still out of the situation: "Hey, what are you doing--"

The screen fell to the ground with a loud bang, the swords broke in, and the gleaming blades approached Yueguan Mountain, while the people behind rushed up to split the dining table and take down Xie Zhixu and Wu Li.

Xie Zhixu lifted the dining table and kicked over to block a few soldiers.

Wu Li yelled: "Wait! Wait, wait, wait, we are not with him, please don't accidentally hurt innocent people!!"

The sharp steel knife pierced through the table and hit Wu Li's straight nose, Xie Zhixu reacted quickly to block Wu Li.

"It's really not the same group!! We don't know that guy ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)" The steel knife cut the iron like mud, piercing the tableboard like a joke, and instantly pierced the tablehack full of holes Instead, Wu Li and Xie Zhixu were trapped in the small space by the table and the window sill, moving and dodging awkwardly.

The voice of Yueguanshan said: "Everyone, if you have something to say, you can do it when you come up—hey, hey, you can't finish cutting my jacket!"

Wu Li yelled: "You bastard with the surname Yue!!—Junior Brother, just look at the height of the window sill, let's jump out of the window and escape for our lives!"

Xie Zhixu glanced back while he was busy hiding the tip of the knife: "No way, it's too high, if you jump down, you'll be smashed to pieces!"

"Bold lunatic, dare to commit crimes against the eldest son, take it down quickly!"

The table board made a dangerous cracking sound, and the cracks spread like spider webs along the gap pierced by the steel knife. Xie Zhixu pulled Wu Li away and shielded him with his back in front of him. , Sawdust splashed.

Countless cold lights pierced through the dust, and Wu Li hid behind Xie Zhixu and shouted: "Old-four-save-life-ah!!"

The saber was unsheathed.

The world was shocked by the pure sky, and a dazzling aurora flashed across like ice and snow.Like an ice crystal breaking, or like a frozen lake being unsealed, there is a crisp and soft sound of gold and stone.

Xie Zhixu put his sword back into its sheath, and cupped his hands to make amends: "I have offended you so much, please forgive me, we are actually strangers to that brother Yue, and we did not intend to offend Mr. Liang, everyone, please don't hurt Chi Yu."

The scene was silent.

Even the family soldiers who besieged Yueguan Mountain looked over in amazement. Their companions were holding steel knives, above the handle——

Totally bald.

Taking advantage of the brief stalemate cut by Qing Jingtian's sword, Xie Zhixu hurriedly dragged Wu Li across the shattered blade and slipped away, sincerely apologizing as he slipped:

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I confiscated it in an emergency, please forgive me."

The diners on the second floor were running away when the government soldiers charged up aggressively, Xie Zhixu and Wu Li quickly left with their hands covering their faces under the silent gaze of the whole building.

"What's the matter with you, that move just now was too ostentatious." Wu Li gritted his teeth and whispered.

Xie Zhixu: "It was triggered passively in a critical situation, and I can't control it."

The moment he walked around the stage, Xie Zhixu glanced over Mr. Kong.Mr. Kong is still holding the curtain with countless holes in his hand. He doesn't look at Yueguanshan who is speaking rudely upstairs, but he is looking at him. Ling's eyes turned cold.

Chun Zun Xianli yelled and exploded behind the two of them—"Where can I escape!"

Xie Zhixu and Wu Li both shook, and ran away without looking back.Xie Zhixu wanted to go straight to Fuyunju, but was dragged by Wu Li and plunged into the crowded crowd on the street.

After walking a few miles with a dull head, there was no pursuer behind, probably going to besiege Yueguan Mountain.The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and rested in a pastry shop on the street.

The shop is doing good business at night, but most of them are takeaways. The two benches in the shop are probably for the guys to take a break. At this time, Wu Li and Xie Zhixu took over them, and the shop manager took a few glances.

"It turned out to be the Yue family in Liangzhou City. I said, why are you so arrogant and unruly?" Wu Li gritted his teeth, gritted his teeth, "Have you seen his trick at night?"

Xie Zhixu thought about it for a moment: "You mean the trick where he shot down the curtain?"

"Turning the invisible internal strength into the visible, shooting like the night rain hitting the tiles, can break the armor. It is a unique skill realized by the ancestors of the Yue family listening to the sound of the rain hitting the roof tiles in the gate tower of Zhaowu City, Liangzhou. It has never been passed on to the outside world. It is regarded as the signature martial art of Yue Family."

Wu Li snorted coldly: "He used the night rain to beat the tiles as a greeting card to ask the Liang family, it's better to say that he wrote a war letter."

After all, Xie Zhixu was also from a family of Jianghu, and he was still very interested in comparing martial arts and bravery. He asked, "Will the Liang family accept it?"

Wu Li replied: "Although the Liang family has a great family and business, it is nothing more than a wealthy gentry. The Xiliang Mansion is far away from the emperor, and it is not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. There are Tubo people watching over it. It is a no-nonsense area. The Yue family is the real one. The Emperor of Earth. It’s just a martial arts competition, so I won’t give up some face.”

Although Yue Guanshan's style was very luxurious, Xie Zhixu didn't guess that his background was so deep, so he let out a dull "oh".

The pastry shop owner looked over again.

Wu Li poked Xie Zhi's sleeve pocket that held money: "I'm starving to death, go buy something to eat."

Xie Zhixu immediately withdrew his hand to cover the bag, and said vigilantly: "Ah? Brother, let's stop, didn't you have enough in the restaurant just now?"

Wu Li stared at Xie Zhixu, slapped him on the back of the head, turned his head away, and whispered in his ear: "Silly boy, we borrowed someone else's chair to sit for a long time, you are kind of interested anyway."

Oh oh oh, Xie Zhixu understood immediately, honestly carried the money to the counter, the owner of the pastry shop put on a warm attitude to greet him.

The oiled paper bag contained several cakes of different varieties, Xie Zhixu held them in his hand, and sat on a bench facing the street with Wu Li to eat one by one.

Wu Li took a bite of a maroon cake with fluffy pores: "Well—it tastes good, what kind of cake is this?"

Xie Zhixu introduced to him: "The one in your hand is red bean lard cake, and there is another dark brown sugar pine nut cake. Suzhou's time-honored cake group is very famous. I liked it the most when I was young. Whenever my uncle was on a business trip at home Those from Suzhou will bring me some back.”

Sitting in the brightly lit long street, the night seems to be a distant curtain, pedestrians are flowing, and the five watch market is constantly selling. The memories of the silence of the night have already been deeply pressed into the century-old stone road by superimposed footprints.

They stared at the bustling market and ate the last piece of pastry.

Xie Zhixu put away the oil paper bag, patted his buttocks and stood up from the bench: "Go back and rest, brother, you have to get up early to investigate the case tomorrow."

Wu Li also stood up and walked back: "Have you got an idea yet?"

Xie Zhixu said: "The Su family said that Ni Tang often goes to Taihu Liangjiazhuang, I want to go there first to find out about Ni Tang. Alas, I just hope that what happened tonight will not make Mr. Liang and us form a relationship. To tell you the truth, just now When we came out of the restaurant, Mr. Liang looked at me, it was so cold that it entered my heart."

Xie Zhixu thought for a while, and described: "It's like the eyes of a poisonous snake!"

"Wow," Wu Li said, "Is that an exaggeration? I'm not going to hide it from you, senior brother is so big, and you are the only second senior brother who has ever seen someone with eyes like poisonous snakes."

Xie Zhixu: "..."

Wu Li: "..."

Wu Li came to his senses: "So, you thought it was Kong Shiren's eyes that were icy...in fact, the second child is looking at you?!"
