Azi of Tianlong Gaiden

Zhao Yi was in high spirits, took a big sip of wine, and said: "I can drink to my heart's content only when I see someone like Brother Li." After drinking another glass, he asked, "Where is Brother Li from?"

My brother-in-law said: "The Zhongzhou area."

Zhao Yi said: "I think Brother Li has a strong character, and he will definitely become famous in the Jianghu in the future."

The brother-in-law chuckled, but did not answer.

He added: "It would be a pleasure if I could wander the world with Brother Li and see the world." He put the wine glass back on the stone table, accidentally knocked off the bamboo chopsticks in hand, and the bamboo chopsticks fell to the ground, but Before we could react, the servant standing beside him had already caught the chopsticks and put his hands back in place respectfully.I watched in amazement at how much speed and reflexes this required.

When the wine was over and there was nothing else to say, we got up and said goodbye.

It was raining heavily, and I was walking on the bluestone path in Yangzhou City under my umbrella.This guy Lingyu actually found someone to send a letter to me in Wuxi Villa, and asked me to come to the teahouse in the city to meet him, which made me look at him with admiration.Reluctantly, I found the small teahouse with the clover archway that he mentioned in the letter. Someone flashed out from the dark alley, pulled my arm, and said, "Go this way."

After seeing the person coming, I said: "Junior brother, we are not going to kill people, so there is no need to hide like this."

I followed him for a while in the narrow alleys before arriving at the small teahouse.Finding a place to sit down, he looked around and said, "Senior sister, you don't know, I've had a thrilling life these past few days, and I almost died."

I peeled the melon seeds on the plate and said calmly, "What's wrong?"

Lingyu said: "I tried to sneak into the Green Bamboo Gang. I was staying in the kitchen all the time, thinking about what you said, and looking for opportunities to get closer to the truth. The first few days were peaceful and there were no visions. Later, the Green Bamboo Gang called the gang, It is said that the Beggar Gang picked up trouble on the pier and beat their two brothers, and then the two families started fighting. I was also mixed with the Green Bamboo Gang at the time, and the two sides fought, and I almost died." He rubbed his buttocks , indicating that it still hurts, then looked outside, and asked me: "Have you noticed that there are a lot of beggars in the city these two days?"

I said that I have been in Wuxi Villa for the past two days, and I haven't come out much.

He said: "The strange thing is that the gang leader didn't show up when there was such a big commotion, and the deputy gang leader was still in charge of the overall situation. Once I saw them take out the clothes that the gang leader changed from the inner courtyard to wash, and there were big lumps on them. Black blood, I looked, like..."

I said, "Poisoned?"

He nodded emphatically.

I asked: "Have you ever inquired in the inner courtyard? Even if Tan Yuan is inconvenient for some reason, it is impossible not to come out and walk around."

He said: "I tried to enter the inner courtyard, but the courtyard where the gang leader lives is tightly guarded, and others can't get in at all." The position will be taken over by the deputy gang leader at that time. The deputy gang leader treats people kindly and has a long history of authority, so no one in the gang has any objections."

I laughed and said: "The whole gang is harmonious, and the Green Bamboo Gang can set an example in the world."

Lingyu didn't know why, so she continued: "The beggar gang seems to be ruthless this time, insisting that the Qingzhu gang arrested their elder Wu, and said that they seized the gang's business territory, fought with them, and arrested two of them. Hall Master."

I held my chin, looked at Lingyu, and said, "How strange this matter looks, the beggar gang has always advertised benevolence and righteousness, and they will not fight without evidence. In addition, Tan Yuan did not show up. Sick or poisoned, what kind of abdication of the position of leader is a lie. By the way, have you ever seen a person wearing a black cloak in the Green Bamboo Gang?"

He shook his head.

I always feel that there is some kind of collusion between the Green Bamboo Gang and Wuxi Villa, and I told Lingyu to go back and monitor the movement of the two parties fighting, and must find out what they are planning behind.

After breaking up with Lingyu, I wandered the streets alone for a long time before thinking of going back.Just as I was yawning, a carriage stopped beside me, and the driver turned towards me with a blank face.No need to guess now, I also know who is in the carriage.

Sure enough, Zhao Yi lifted the curtain, poked his head out to look, and smiled like a spring breeze: "What a coincidence, I met Brother Duan here."

The servant turned into a coachman, and the Zhao family didn't seem to be rich.I also put on a proper demeanor and said with a smile: "Young Master Zhao."

He said: "It's raining just now, and the mountain road is difficult to walk. If Brother Duan wants to go back, you can get in the carriage and let's go together."

If there is a free ride, of course I will not refuse.I jumped into the carriage briskly and stretched my legs. There was a soft blanket in the carriage, and the sitting was extremely comfortable.The car was also moving very steadily, and I was contentedly opening the window to look at the scenery beside the road, when Zhao Yi suddenly said, "Actually, you are a girl, right?"

I was startled, and turned to look at him, because the curtain was hanging down, the car was a little dark, but his eyes were very bright.I judged that he was not malicious, blinked and said, "How do you know?"

The corner of his mouth curled into an arc: "Only girls look at people from their feet. How can men look at people like this? Your eyes... are very special."

I don't like people mentioning my eyes, so I looked away and said coldly: "Mr. Zhao has very sharp eyes too."

He didn't notice it, and continued softly: "And you have a faint fragrance on your body, which is not the smell on men."

I am silent.

"You are a perfect match for that brother Li."

I looked into his eyes and said, "Actually, we are brother and sister."

He laughed and said, "But the way you look at him is not the way a younger sister looks at a brother."

I couldn't argue with him, so I ignored him and turned my head to look at the scenery outside the window.

His voice came from behind his ear: "That hero Li Xiashi, it's no wonder you follow him so wholeheartedly."

We went back to Wuxi Villa, walked into the inner courtyard, and met my brother-in-law, who was very surprised to see me coming back with Zhao Yi.Zhao Yi said a few polite words and left.

When he walked away, the brother-in-law said, "You are not planning on Mr. Zhao, are you?"

I said sternly: "How come, didn't I promise you, I won't cause trouble." I took his arm and said with a smile: "I have something for you." I took out a small cloth bag from my waist and put it Open it, and there is a small face inside, with vigorous eyebrows and sparse beard, about the size of one of my fingers. I handed it to my brother-in-law and said, "Does this look like you?"

He looked at the dough man with an indescribable expression, and I said more happily: "I just made this at a stall selling dough men at the foot of the mountain. Ah, no, the nose is crooked." I took the dough man from him I snatched it from my hand, pinched the nose carefully, put it in his hand, and said: "Maybe it was pressed just now, you don't look like you, hey, why don't you smile, the boss asked me when I was doing it just now, saying Why don't you squeeze into a smiling face, I said he never smiles."

He couldn't help laughing too, and said: "Okay, I'll accept it, but what's the color of this dress..." Just as he was talking, two servants from the villa came to invite him, saying that Zhang Yizhi was in Luosongtang at the moment, meet us.

When we came to Luosong Hall, I looked at the sky and saw dark clouds rolling in. I am not a scholar, but I also know that there is a saying that the mountains and rains are about to come and the wind is full of buildings. The surrounding atmosphere makes people unable to cheer up.

Zhang Yizhi sat in front of the case and made tea, and greeted us to sit down, with a set of movements smoothly, but he didn't speak for a long time.I thought to myself, is this specially asking us to appreciate his tea art?

He finally made the tea, poured two cups out of the purple clay pot, gave it to my brother-in-law and me, and said, "How about trying my Yunwu tea?" I noticed that his little finger holding the teacup was very slender.He said proudly: "This is the first time I serve tea to guests."

I drink tea just to quench my thirst, and I can't drink anything.I saw that my brother-in-law also drank very hard.

Zhang Yizhi didn't care, but asked, "Does Brother Li have a family?"

Brother-in-law said: "No."

He asked again: "Brother Li, did you make a marriage contract?"

Brother-in-law said: "No."

He showed joy, and said: "I have a daughter named Ruoxuan, she is 16 years old, I intend to betroth her to Brother Li, what does Brother Li want?"

I took a sip of tea and Zhang Yizhi looked at me gently.

Brother-in-law said: "I..."

He waved his hand and said: "Marriage is not a trifling matter. Brother Li may wish to think about it. I will hold a big banquet in the back garden in three days to welcome the winter. I have invited friends from all corners of the country. Brother Li, please be there. Then you will be there again." It's not too late for me to answer."

I looked at the tea in my hand, watched the faint floating on the surface of the tea, and reconfirmed that I was not dreaming.

When we were about to leave, Zhang Yizhi held his brother-in-law's arm, leaned close to him, and said, "If you miss an opportunity, you won't have it again. Choose carefully."

He didn't reject Zhang Yizhi's proposal right away. When I went back, I asked, "You don't really intend to marry Miss Zhang, do you?"

He said dumbfoundedly: "What are you thinking, I said earlier that if you get rid of your sister, I will never marry another woman in this life."

When I heard him say that he would not marry Ms. Zhang, I felt relieved, and when I heard the second half of what he said, I felt very sad.That's right, apart from his sister, has he ever put anyone in his eyes?Ah Zhu is so smart, she made their love through her own death.No matter what I do, I can't compare to her.But there are so many variables in the world, if she is alive, can he still love her so deeply?

It was raining and foggy all around, and the sky was full of blue. After walking a few steps, he looked back at me from the veranda: "What's wrong?"

I shook my head, walked over, and told him about the fight between the Beggar Gang and the Green Bamboo Gang.

He said, "I know."

I said, "Are you involved in this?"

He walked very relaxed, looked at me from the side, his eyes were calm, giving people a very reassuring feeling, and said: "We will spend another two or three days here, and the matter will be resolved."

I said, "Do you already know where the old man is locked up?"

The brother-in-law said: "I'll let Zhang Yizhi tell us that he probably couldn't bear it after waiting for so long. Do you know how wolves hunt sheep on the grassland? They lie down in the grass and wait for the sheep to eat and drink. Only by attacking suddenly when you think you can sit back and relax, can you hit it with one blow."

I said, "How do you know that Zhang Yizhi has lost his patience? I saw him talking about poetry and sipping tea, and he was very patient."

He looked at me and didn't speak.
