Chapter 078: One Wave After Another
Murong Longshui has been three days and two nights without water, since you can not get rid of the pair of maggots behind the tarsus, simply in the city through the downtown picked a restaurant, from the waist of the small capsule pulled out an ingot of gold thrown to the restaurant fellows, said do not have to look for, want a table of sumptuous food and wine, in the window seat, whether it is a broad defeat of out of the way, or her hill pier-like rare body, are very eye-catching, Murong Longshui did not see that son of a bitch outside the window, also happy to see the heart is not bothered, just eat large pieces of meat, but the old moth chewing slowly, a few nearby diners are whispered secretly, but the old moth is not a good idea. See that son of a bitch, but also happy not to see the heart is not annoying, just eat large pieces of meat, instead of the old moth chewing slowly, near a few diners are whispering, Murong Longshui judgment, laughing and joking words can not talk about how polite and implicit, the old moth of the spider’s web of the three days of the accumulation of not a small amount of fire, want to not move to give this group of insolent a little lesson, Murong Longshui gently shook his head, drank a big mouthful of soju not tasted, contained in the mouth, and not in a hurry to swallow, but also in the mouth. Mouth, also not in a hurry to swallow, slowly aftertaste. Out of the corner of the eye, the downtown river flow, small door small family, but also silk silk satin, Murong Longshui some fascination, Liyang end of the Spring and Autumn turmoil, from the Western Sichuan South Tang East Vietnam three places to get the brocade color silk up to millions of pies, these years Liyang Zhao room of the people of the city’s clothing customized than everywhere in the previous dynasty to relax a lot of Murong Longshui swallowed the wine, pursed his lips, softly murmur a sentence, a good picture of peace and prosperity picture scrolls. The first is the one of the most important thing to do.
Less than five feet away behind a green wall, few pedestrians, head of the sable cap Xu Fengnian squatting in the corner of the root, while chewing a scallion pancake, while vaguely fragmented, without delay to raise the cuffs, as if a small army chief made a sand field point of the bravado of the style, hovering in front of a few flying swords to give orders, finger a spin, which three swords stick to the wall to swipe away, turning out of the alley, a moment through the restaurant window! Murong Longshui, the old moth fingers lightly knocking desktop, flying swords and the Sheriff between the wisps of white mist, three naughty and mischievous flying swords can not succeed, will be the original way back, a set of only to go, the second set of again, this time the three swords angle is tricky, through the window after the rapid dispersion, the old moth knocked on the table in a hurry, three swords also hurriedly to go also hurriedly, the third set of instantaneous, happy to let the old moth more and more hidden means of heart Tired of dealing with, a few sharp-eyed drinkers have seen the window side of the white mist, vaguely bright light streaming fireflies.
Murong Longshui heavily put down the bowl of wine, only to persuade the old moth not to make a big fuss, she herself got up violently, the whole person directly smashed the window bars, stride wildly run away, see the restaurant crowd dumbfounded, dare to say that this woman is still a deep hidden jianghu heroine? At the foot of the green wall, Xu Fengyen hurriedly took the small half of onion cake in his mouth, spread his feet and slipped away, Murong Longshui stood in the alleyway, hooked his five fingers into the wall and crushed the masonry in his palm, his face became iron blue. The old moth was also tired of being tossed around by Xu Fengyen’s endless underhanded maneuvers, but he just didn’t know how to persuade that young county princess. The reason why not to chase, the truth is that this kid is harnessing the sword is too sharp, within ten feet of the flying sword hovering just right, quietly in front of them waiting for rabbits, eight flying sword, that is eight traps to start. The old moth couldn’t help but mutter: “Really chasing a dog that poops indiscriminately, wherever you go, you have to worry about your shoes stained with dog poop. If you don’t chase it, he’ll just bark a few times behind your ass, it’s really difficult!”
Murong Longshui was amused by this crude analogy, and the gloom in his heart dissipated a few points. At the end of the alley, that guy seems to notice that the two do not have the idea of chasing and fighting, and then playfully appeared, leaning against the wall, gnawed onion cakes, greasy fingers in the sable hat casually wiped, and kindly reminded: “You pair of old and young with the immortal couple has not made up his mind ah? Wait until I call out thousands of Northern Liang iron cavalry, one person a mouthful of spittle are drowning you, be careful to become a pair of outlawed mandarin ducks, in the saliva swim, swim, swim ……”
Murong Longshui dead stared at the son of a bitch who made a paddling posture, coldly laughed: “You also don’t bullshit, at this moment, the spider web and the Northern Liang spies have become a thorn in the side of Zhao Hook, no one dares to act rashly, if you can mobilize a thousand iron riders from Northern Liang to here, I, Murong Longshui, will not only be obediently tied up in hand and captured, but also give you, Xu Fengyen, as a maid can.”
Xu Fengnian laughed aloud, “This is what you said ah, if you have the ability to wait, listen to the tide pavilion there is a taoist text records the beans into soldiers of the mystical ability, dare to give me three days time, when I cultivate this aptitude, at that time you will give me as a maid, coincidentally, the wutong courtyard is still missing a handmaiden holding the sword, I look at you cow tall horse, but the momentum is very sufficient, how about it? ”
Murong Longshui gritted his teeth and squeezed out a smile and said: “Good discussion. Don’t say holding a sword, in the future, I can hold a spirit tablet for you.”
Xu Fengnian feigned anger: “Curse me? Hey, that old man who raises silkworms, you don’t discipline your daughter-in-law, how are you in charge of the family, so old are living on the dog? You said I was a dog’s poop, but when you were having fun with the princess, your dog’s tongue licked blindly, so that’s what you call a fling? I heard that you old man in the spider’s web in the head of the very bad reputation, was your bad abuse of women a hand can not count over, this time with the wonderful age of the county princess with free rivers and lakes, can not be up to mischief, live a good life, than what is better.”
Still yellow flower girl of Beimang county princess a smile, the old moth can be a little anxious, although the spider web has always been loyal only to His Majesty the Empress, accurately His Majesty behind the shadow of the Chancellor Li Mibi, but Murong Longshui identity is particularly prestigious, the Lord insulted the subject to death, not to mention that the son of His Highness full of only a dirty word bastard words, as much as possible to him and the county princess of a piece of dirty water, in case the county princess returned to the north of Mang someday think of this, the old moth! How can he not be alarmed? Xu Fenian would have liked to continue teasing this moth cocoon, but the arrival of the little girl made him restrain a lot, the furry sable hat tilted on her head, she squatted on the side of the slowly chewing a sliced beef onion cake, obviously compared to Xu Fenian’s onion cake to be too much richer and more expensive, a few onion cakes of money are from Xu Fenian in the street to pass by the bag of money, Jia Jia Jia chewing onion cake, licked his fingers, and then seems to think that he is not accustomed to warm sable hat, tugged, but it was by Xu Fenian’s onion cake, and he was not accustomed to warm sable hat, but it was by the sable hat. , tugged, but only from east to west. The old moth saw this pair of temporary partners in the eyes, did not feel funny at all, only fear and tricky, these days are only Xu Fengyen shot, the old moth believes that when the little girl slowed down, healed a few points, the next hand knife is not likely to fall on him and the county princess.
The old moth rubbed his rosacea nose, grimly laughed: “Your Highness, I heard that the Northern Liang Wangfei is a woman sword fairy, because pregnant with you, the case of the capital white, fell into incurable disease, passed away early. I also heard that your eldest sister Xu Lihu married far away in Jiangnan, depressed, the second sister Xu Weixiong is not much better, almost died in the hands of Chen Zhibao. In a few years, the new king for the old king, it is not easy to be a vassal king, careful in the end is just a widow, can not share the blessings, but also worry about the north mang iron hooves to the south, the side of the defense of the trips away from the sun, in my place is you, would have gone crazy. Casual finger counting, not to mention the North Mang in the side of the couch, there is also a grudge in the heart of the Zhao family son of heaven, there are Zhang Julu Gu Jiantang a large group of bone marrow loyalists cold eyes watching, there are a few major feudal lords eyeing the tiger, you say you live is not a sin?”
Xu Fengyen still leaned against the wall, his hands clasped his chest, and sighed heavily, “Who says it isn’t.”
Murong Longshui said, “There are dead soldiers in Zhao Hook who have been planted for years by our Northern Mang and are in high positions. The capital side called a fart loud as thunder big man, many are clear that this time is your last stay in the jianghu, the battle outside of Shenwu City may not be your jianghu finale, if you continue to cat and mouse with us, be careful that the loss will not be worth the gain, and be the Zhao family’s son of heaven to fish for profit in turn. At that time, I definitely don’t mind teaming up with Zhao Hook and leaving your corpse in the jianghu. Anyway, now you and I are both caught in a gambling game, to gamble on whether or not the Zhao family’s son of heaven and the Liyang heavyweights have this kind of vigor, I lose, but just to maintain the stalemate at the moment, you lose, your father and son and Beiliang’s entire twenty years of patience, a basket of water is empty. The reason why I am opening up to you is because I have never treated you as an irreconcilable mortal enemy. On the contrary, Xu Fengyen, I have a bit of admiration for you from the bottom of my heart, the only two men who can convince me, Murong Longshui, in Northern Mang are Tuoba Bodhisattva and Dong Zhuo.”
Xu Fengnian hung back and said, “Convinced by the heart is not considered convinced, a woman’s body is only truly convinced when she is convinced.”
Murong Longshui ignored his frivolous words and calmly asked, “You are determined to bet with me?”
Xu Fengnian stretched out a hand, shook it, shook his head and smiled, “It’s impossible to talk about gambling or not. Just like Northern Liang only believes in the Iron Cavalry and the Northern Liang Sword, I also only believe in the pounds I have earned.”
The corner of Murong Longshui’s mouth curled up as she sneered, “Then we’ll see.”
She turned to leave the alleyway, the old moth was about to turn around when Xu Fengnian laughed, “Two hundred and forty words, I’ve memorized them all.”
The old moth’s throat moved slightly, holding back a mouthful of thick phlegm and spitting it fiercely on the ground, sneering at Xu Fengnian and leaving.
The young girl heckled a word.
Xu Fengnian did not care about her demolition, and curiously asked, “Where did that big cat of yours go?”
Jia Jiajia squatted on the ground, silent.
She was always silent these days, ignoring whatever Xu Fenian inquired about.
Xu Fengyen squatted down and helped her straighten her sable hat. She glared at her and reached out to tilt it back. Xu Fengyen blankly glared, stood up, and the two of them continued to follow “Like Flowers Like Jade” and “Fengshen Yulang”, which were the nicknames Xu Fengyen had given to Murong Longshui and Old Silkworm Cocoon the day before, and in Xu Fengyen’s words, this was called repaying a grudge with a moral favor.
Passing by a roadside stall, an old Confucian student there set up a stall to sell old books, vertical placed a word, the book has allusion to the fish three words, by a side of green shrimp toad copper town paper pressed, the old Confucian saw Xu Fengyen and the little girl passed by, smiled and asked: ”This gentleman, do not pick pick the book? If the money to buy books is not enough, there are old hairpin can also be used as silver money.”
Xu Fengyen stopped his steps, bent down to gaze at the calligraphy and asked, “Old sir, this allusion to fish is the meaning of otter sacrificing fish?”
The old Confucian smiled and nodded his head, “Correct. Your Excellency is indeed knowledgeable.”
Xu Fengyen still bowed his head and continued to ask: “Jia Jia Jia, the harmonic sounds are all A, three A, three A, Huang Sanjia.”
The old Confucian tsked, “Your Excellency is talking about that Huang Longshi? This name is obscure, it’s better to say less.”
Xu Fengnian glanced at the expressionless little girl, then at the old Confucian who was pretending to be a god, pulled out a hairpin and gently placed it next to the paperweight, “Old sir, take her away. No more bad luck, no more bad luck than being around me.”
The old Confucian reached out to pick up the hairpin, and was slapped on the back of her hand with a sunflower by the little girl with a resentful face.
The old man laughed: “Not for nothing to collect your hairpin, there is an old unlucky man called Liu Artemisia division out of the capital, also piggybacked on the lapdogs of the East Vietnam Sword Pool, it does not take half an hour to enter the city.”
Xu Fengnian nodded and asked, “How is Sui Slanted Valley doing?”
The old man actually knew what he was talking about, “Still waiting, two bad old men who are over two hundred years old together, the king is staring at the green beans, slowly consuming. But I think, his sword, the fire again, or not. What else do you want to ask, asked together. Zhao Huang Chao, the Shrinking Turtle? Liu Songtao, who’s gone mad? Or Teng Tai-ah, who rode a donkey upside down to see the mountains and rivers? Or is it Luoyang who seeks deer for others?”
Xu Fengnian hesitated and laughed, “Forget it. It’s better for the two of you to close up and leave early.”
The old man smiled playfully, “Are you really not afraid of death?”
Xu Fengnian helplessly said, “Once you guys leave, I can also run away.”
The old man laughed out loud, “The reasoning is this reasoning.”
He stood up, collected his laughter, gently picked up the paperweight and clamped it under his armpit, shaking the words, squinting at Xu Fengyian, “She took over Zhao Xuansu’s qi from Longhu Mountain for you, the bell must be tied to the person who tied the bell, you kid hurry to restore the Great Yellow Court, or else three years …… later, if she dies, I will make an exception to the rule and go against the original intention, I will make you and Beilang suffer. To let you and Beilang can not eat and go. You certainly can not die today, to die can only be three years later, so I shouted a helper for you.”
The little girl walked without dragging her feet at all, not looking back.
The old man walking side by side sighed, “If you’re really cruel, don’t ask for the hairpin back.”
The little girl sniffled.
The old man suddenly laughed: “Sable hat is good, look on the festive.”
The little girl pulled down the furry sable hat that had only covered her forehead, covering her entire face.
Xu Fengyen stood still and quietly watched the two people go away, not long after, turned his head to look, with an old man and a small contrary to the end of the street, white clothes Luoyang slowly traveling.
