Jianghu chaos

Bianzhou is in charge of water transport to the southeast, and is also an important military town of the imperial court. The city's appearance is completely different from that of Yuhang in the south of the Yangtze River, Bagong Mountain in Huainan, or the banks of the Yellow River in Songzhou.There are tall walls, eight streets and nine streets, passing by all the way, quite a sense of spring breeze of "seeing all the flowers in Chang'an".

All the restaurants and teahouses in the city are booming. Ruan Xi went all the way and didn't know which restaurant to enter, so he had to ask a passerby for help: "May I ask which restaurant is the best in the city? It's best to have storytelling. I'll wait all the way. I just want to hear some stories to relieve my fatigue."

Passers-by withdrew their eyes from the glaring carriage, looked him up and down for a week, raised their heads and snorted: "Isn't it great to be rich!"

Ruan Xi was reprimanded for no reason, looking at the back of the man going away, Monk Zhang Er was puzzled.

Fortunately, the peddler on the side of the road pointed to him: "Here, the one next to the street is it."

Ruan Xi was very grateful, and in return, he bought the only three boxes of rouge and five hairpins left on the stall, and turned around and gave them to Hua Zhuoyue.

Hua Juyue saw the color of the rouge at a glance, hesitated to speak, and politely declined: "You will not be rewarded for nothing, you should keep it for yourself."

Ruan Xi thought she was being polite and insisted on giving it away, but Mei Qian couldn't stand it anymore and pushed him back with one hand: "How can you accept things for personal use at will. Even if you love Miss Hua in your heart, it's too late now."

Hua Juyue blushed immediately, and peeked at Mu Jiuqiu.

The vulgar monk was stupid, holding the things in his hands and wanting to give them away, his ears were already blushing before he could speak.

"Brother Mu, the thing in your hand is almost crushed by you." Mei Qian passed by with a sad face, and drove the carriage straight to the restaurant.

Behind him, Mu Jiuqiu finally plucked up the courage and handed an emerald jade bamboo to Hua Juyue: "This is... this is what my mother gave me before I worshiped Shaolin..."

"My mother told me that I am only allowed to practice martial arts and not become a monk. If I find a girl who matches this Polygonatum odoratum, I will... bid farewell to Shaolin, go back to Sichuan... and get married..."

The voices behind them gradually became mixed, and quickly covered their words.

Mei Qian stepped into the gate of the restaurant and looked around.

Xiao Er ran over, panting with sweat profusely: "How many guest officers are there? We still have a private seat upstairs, how about guest officers..."

"There is no need for a private seat." Mei Qian raised his chin and said, "That table is fine."

The table he was looking at was in the center of the hall, and it was full of people sitting on the front, back, left, and right sides. It was noisy and crowded, and anyone who was particular about it was not willing to sit there.Xiao Er hesitated for a moment. He greeted and sent them all day long. He has seen more people than he has eaten salt. He can guess exactly what customers have and what preferences they have at a glance. This guest officer looks at his clothes It's a bit strange that someone who looks like a fastidious person chooses the noisiest place.

But strange or not, as long as the guests like it.Xiao Er didn't think much about it, he threw the cloth over his shoulder, and responded loudly, leading him inside.

Mei Qian turned her head, and Xie Chaohan was getting off the carriage wrapped in a brocade cloak.The weather was getting hotter, and he was still wrapped in a thick cloak. He was really eye-catching on the street with people coming and going, and strange eyes cast him after a while.Xie Chaohan didn't take it seriously, smiled at the passers-by, and walked through the door with his clothes tightly packed.

Mei Qian observed the surroundings vigilantly for a while, and only after making sure that she could see nothing unusual did she follow in and take a seat.

Several people surrounded Xie Chaohan in the center, Mei Qian was on the left and Mu Jiuqiu was on the right, and Hua Juyue and Ruan Xi were staring at him all the time. Will not let go of the slightest movement.

Ruan Xi had never been to Bianzhou before, so naturally he didn't know what to order. He glanced at the menu and found that everything looked good, but he didn't know how it tasted. : "It's fine to serve eight of your signature dishes here."

Xiaoer smiled openly, and it should be extraordinarily loud.

As if thinking of something, Ruan Xi added: "Do you have a Mr. Pingshu here? If not, please call me one. We are tired from the journey and want to hear some fresh stories to relieve our fatigue."

"This..." Xiao Er was a little embarrassed, "It's easy for a guest officer to listen to books, but generally listening to books is in the private room, in this lobby..."

Ruan Xi said softly: "It's okay, let me reserve the room and invite a gentleman to speak in the lobby."

Xiaoer smiled and said: "Why don't you go to the private room upstairs, it's not that the villains don't want to, it's really... You can see that there are so many people at the moment, so Mr. Pingshu and other guests are invited. I can't hear clearly when there is chatter."

What he said was the same, Ruan Xi naturally didn't want to embarrass him, but his disappointment was still evident: "Why don't we go to some Goulan wash houses later? Speaking of which, I haven't been there yet, so I don't know what it's like... ..."

Mei Qian seemed to have no intention of speaking: "Is there anything new these days? If it's a cliché, don't listen to it."

Xiaoer patted his thigh, and said: "Don't tell me, it's really new! See how many of them are also carrying weapons. I don't know if they are from the Jianghu? A few days ago, the second martial arts conference at Luoyingmen in Songzhou, how many of you know? "

Mei Qian nodded slightly, and said: "I'm not a person in the world, but I've heard a little bit about it."

Seeing that they didn't know much about them, Xiao Er became interested: "A big event happened at the second martial arts conference! It turns out that the dignified master of the Luoying Sect is an unfaithful, double-faced, despicable villain who covets the family heirloom of his friend." Abstaining from learning, seeking wealth and killing one’s life! Fortunately, the Skynet is well-organized and not leaked, and now the situation has been exposed, and Luoyingmen has become a street mouse that everyone shouts and beats!”

Xie Chaohan lowered his eyes halfway, and poured tea as if nothing had happened.

Mei Qian said: "I heard this in Ningling the day before yesterday. The Luoyingmen broke up, and the Xiemen master was poisoned. It can be regarded as good and evil will be rewarded."

"Hey, what's the report!" The people at the next table heard their conversation and couldn't help interjecting, "There is also a son in his family, Xie Chaohan who is known as Feijian Luoying!"

Hua Juyue said first: "Then Xie Chaohan has become a cripple since he cut off his meridians?"

The man snorted: "It's not that simple! Xie Chaohan and Shangguan Yun are good friends. On the day when the incident was revealed, he sent his parents and sister to Baichuan Villa overnight. He also exchanged the Luoying sword manual and begged Shangguan Yun to try to protect him. Why would he kill himself?" The meridian is just a feint, he Xie Chaohan is not stupid!"

Another person interjected: "Yes, yes! I also heard that the Xie family's daughter was born as beautiful as a flower, so Xie Chaohan gave her sister to Shangguan Yun directly in order to get Shangguan Yun's guarantee!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's really a tortoise who gave birth to a bastard, and a cruel father gave birth to a heartless son, who even gave away his own sister!"

"Hey, you guys are all clichés, but I heard something even more unusual." Someone said with a smile, "Why do you think Xiemen could kill a friend who grew up so cruelly back then? Tsk, it's still frustrating Ash! How much hatred can you do like this?"

Sure enough, someone took the bait: "Isn't it for the sword manual?"

"The sword manual is the first, the second..." The man shook his finger, and said mysteriously, "The so-called discord, the hatred of killing the father and the hatred of taking the wife! Back then, I thanked the sect master because I fell in love with it." Jian Di's fiancée wanted to grab her by force when she failed in her proposal, which made the two of them turn against each other and there was no room for change! That Jian Ling who came to seek revenge... Hehe, in fact, it is his son who was given by God! To be honest, you actually admit to yourself the evil you did back then?"

Clenching his hands suddenly, then slowly loosening them, Xie Chaohan held down Ruan Xi who was about to jump up to argue, and said softly: "You don't need to be serious about meaningless words."

Ruan Xi was dissatisfied, and was about to say more, but when he heard a heavy slap on the table, someone broke out before him: "Damn it! Which bastard is farting! Xie Qigong is a hero, he is definitely not this kind of person!"

Xie Chaohan was taken aback, and followed his prestige, and saw a young man with the appearance of a shopkeeper, dressed in coarse linen clothes, standing there fighting for reason, he really felt a sense of righteousness: "...the three mountains and six peaks in Changling were flying Yingzhai’s notoriety has spread far and wide, and the people have been scraped every year, leaving nowhere to go! Ask the government officials and say that Feiyingzhai’s terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they have no choice but to turn a blind eye; Knights, you can either walk around and leave, saying that a strong dragon can't beat a local snake, or you can just shoot and hurt a few minions, and you can't touch the base of Feiying Village. Only Mr. Xie Qi entered the village alone, one person and one sword Ping Sanshan and Liufeng, only hurting people but not killing people, escorting the bandit leader to pay back money and food from house to house! You say he is a despicable villain who sells his sister for glory, so is there any benevolence in this world!"

Every word and every word of his words was resounding, and immediately covered the noisy voices of the previous audience. After a long while, someone muttered: "You are also hearing the story, so how do you know what kind of person he is?"

They arrange discussions and spread rumors here, but instead question the hearsay of others.

"Bullshit!" The peddler exploded as expected, "I am from Changling! Six years ago, when Xie Qigong escorted the bandit leader to the town, I saw it with my own eyes! Xie Qigong has given us the grace of rebuilding, who will throw it at me again?" If he has dirty water, I will fight with anyone!"

Xie Chaohan stared blankly, then suddenly the tip of his nose turned sour, and he turned his head away.

Immediately, someone came forward to persuade him, saying that it was just a joke, why should he be serious, the shopkeeper still yelled that whoever made fun of Mr. Xie Qi would be against him, and he was desperate to ask for an explanation for his benefactor.

Xie Chaohan lowered his head, his sideburns were scattered, covering the expression in his eyes, but the corners of his lips could be seen to be slightly and shallowly bent.

"It's just a chat after dinner. A few joking words won't hurt Mr. Qi Xie. Why is this brother so angry?" Everyone followed and looked over. Xie Chaohan is known as a romantic young hero, and I don't see him getting angry, this man is angry on his behalf, and it hurts his own body, so it's not worth it."

After all, six years have passed, and his stature and appearance have changed somewhat. In addition, he kept his back to several people, lowered his head, and lowered his voice a lot. Although the salesman was dazed for a moment, he still didn't recognize him. , Hearing what he said, he poked his neck and said, "I think it's worth it!"

"Thank you." Xie Chaohan opened his mouth and said silently.

Mei Qian looked at him quietly for a while, then suddenly turned around, smiled and asked the person who pretended to be mysterious and "revealed the inside story" just now: "What this brother said is very novel. Could it be that he is also a person from the world?"

The man who was yelling at Maimang from the needle point of the salesman didn't have any interest in showing off. He waved his hands and said angrily: "What kind of Jianghu people are just hearing it casually! If this young man wants to know more, go to Going around in Jinsi Alley, the Tanci ditties that are sung today are all about this!"
