Shui Ling'er listened at the side and was puzzled as to how Chen Chang, a new arrival, learned about the shipping situation in Jiangling.
After thinking about it, I suddenly remembered that I had seen Chen Chang and the old boatman chatting about something on the big ship. I must have learned about it at that time.
Although Mr. Jiang was very anxious, he also knew that this matter had to be solved bit by bit. He was too anxious to eat hot tofu. He turned around and saw the confident smile on Chen Chang's face, and forced himself to calm down and listen to Chen Chang continue to "question the case".<
/p>
Liang Yu was panic-stricken, so she calmed herself down and said, "Of course it is!"
Chen Chang looked at him with a smile and said: "Brother Liang, has the person you are waiting for now not arrived yet?"
"I... didn't..." Liang Yu was stunned by his sudden change of topic and her eyes flashed, "I don't know what you mean by your question?"
Chen Chang laughed and said: "Brother Liang, why should you be nervous? You have been doing business in Jiangling for many years, and you must have many business partners. Brother Liang is about to return to Fengzhou, so naturally there will be someone to see him off!"
Liang Yu vaguely felt something was wrong, so she turned her head to the side and stopped answering.
Chen Chang walked slowly in front of him and looked at him closely. His eyes gradually moved down until he landed on the teapot on the table in front of him. He said, "Brother Liang, the tea ceremony is the way of heaven.
The tea ceremony is the way of humanity, and the tea ceremony is the way of the heart. It seems that Brother Liang is also a tea lover!"
Liang Yudao: "What's wrong with tea? I'm just thirsty and don't have much interest in the tea ceremony!"
Chen Chang smiled lightly and said: "The purpose of tea is that it tastes very cold and is suitable for drinking. It is most suitable for people who practice frugal virtues. If there is heat, thirst, condensation, brain pain, astringent eyes, irritability in the limbs, and discomfort in all joints, chat
If you take four or five sips, it will compete with the glutinous rice wine and nectar. If you do not pick it at the right time, it will not be refined. If you drink it, it will be mixed with wild flowers, and you will become ill if you drink it."
Liang Yu's eyes flashed, and Chen Chang's previous words were misty, but the last sentence was clear. If the tea is picked improperly or has impurities, you will get sick if you drink it.
While he was thinking about it, Jiang Yong had already jumped forward, reached out and grabbed the teapot.
Although Liang Yu was shocked and pale, his movements were extremely fast, like a civet cat, and he had already escaped from the two sword-wielding soldiers in front of him in a flash.
Jiang Yong shouted: "It is indeed a masterpiece of Northern Qi, please give me a knife!"
The "sword" he said was actually a palm. Before the shouting stopped, his right palm had already been slashed out.
Almost at the same time, he threw the teapot in his hand to a soldier.
Liang Yu didn't know the opponent's strength, so she didn't dare to confront him head-on, so she leaned over to avoid him.
Jiang Yong's right palm fell, and his left palm followed.
Liang Yu didn't expect this person to move so fast, and hurriedly turned his hands to resolve it. However, when he stretched out his palm, the force was nothing like that. With a slap, his armpit was hit hard by Jiang Yong's right palm. His body was hit hard by Jiang Yong's right palm.
With a sudden shake, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Jiang Yong sneered and said: "Why don't you hurry up and capture us!"
Liang Yu took a deep breath. He just spit out a large mouthful of blood. The internal injuries he suffered were already serious. However, there were many diners in the restaurant at the moment. These waiting officers did not dare to launch arrows and crossbows rashly. This was his opportunity.
Having made up his mind to capture the thief first, he immediately stepped forward and thrust his palm towards Jiang Yong.
Unexpectedly, a soldier came from the side and slashed with his sword. Liang Yu sidestepped to avoid it, circled with his left hand, slapped him hard in the mouth, then circled with his right hand and hit him on the top of the head with his backhand.<
/p>
The soldier shouted "Ah!" and jumped back.
Liang Yu's right palm suddenly stretched out and hit his chest. The soldier said again: "Ah!" and took three steps back.
The soldier was hit three times in a row and turned pale with shock. However, he felt a dull pain in the three places where he was hit on his face, top of his head, and chest. He didn't know the extent of his injuries, and he couldn't help but feel very timid.
The sudden fight caused chaos in the restaurant, and Chen Chang hurriedly protected Shui Ling'er.
Lou Shaokang was so frightened that he hurriedly called for his subordinates, such as Lao San, to guard him.
The soldiers came forward with knives and wanted to cut Liang Yu into pieces, but Jiang Yong quickly stopped him because he wanted her alive.
Liang Yu saw that everyone on the other side was surrounding him. Everyone on the other side was holding a weapon, but he was using his bare hands. No matter how strong his martial arts was, it was still difficult for him to escape. At this moment, he felt helpless and the hero was at the end of his life, which made him feel sad.
However, this state of mind only lasted for a moment, and he punched a soldier with his fist.
Although these soldiers were armed with weapons, Mr. Jiang wanted them to capture them alive, so they were afraid of inadvertently injuring Liang Yu's life with one move.
Liang Yu knew that he was fighting against the waiting soldiers with his bare hands, but he had lost his life in vain, so he swayed and used his left hand to snatch the ring-head sword of one of the soldiers.
This move was extremely fast and the move was very unique. Before the soldier noticed it, Liang Yu's left hand had already touched his wrist. He was shocked. He immediately swung his hand, turned the long knife around, and stabbed Liang Yu's left chest quickly.<
/p>
Liang Yu hurriedly dodged, but he took advantage of the moment when he was changing positions and reached out his right hand, grabbing the throat of a soldier.
This grasping finger caught such an important part, and it only took a little force to kill the opponent. The soldier was frightened to death. Fortunately, one of his companions struck with a knife, and the target was exactly
Liang Yu's arm forced him to let go of the soldier's throat, and the soldier rolled on the spot and ran away.
Liang Yu sighed secretly. Although the fight could be sustained for a while, it was not a long-term solution.
Seeing that his men couldn't take down Liang Yu for a while, Jiang Yong jumped forward and struck Liang Yu with his palm. He was afraid of his opponent, so he struck him with his palm and didn't dare to use the back attack again, so he immediately backed away.
As soon as Liang Yu gave in, he lost his footing and threw himself forward.
Seeing an advantage, Jiang Yong slashed directly at his left shoulder without taking the knife out of its sheath. The hit hit him hard, and there was a "click" sound, causing the collarbone to break. The pain was so painful that Liang Yu almost fainted.
Unlike those clumsy soldiers, Jiang Yong has been working as a detective for a long time. If it were delayed any longer, wouldn't it be a joke?
Chen Chang saw Liang Yu staggering back, knocking the short table over, and smashing the dishes on it to the ground. He was about to surrender, when suddenly there was a clang of metal outside the restaurant.
p>
The next moment, a familiar sound of piercing the air pierced Chen Chang's eardrums, and then blood splattered everywhere. Several soldiers fell straight down, with a black crossbow arrow on their chests.
At this time, several more crossbow arrows flew past Liang Yu's scalp and nailed the throats of several soldiers behind him.
Chen Chang, Shui Ling'er and others were also shocked by this sudden change, and they all hid on the spot. Shopkeeper Li was so frightened that his knees went weak and he knelt on the ground, lying on the ground like an ostrich, his heart couldn't help but
Pray.
The restaurant was in such chaos that it immediately lost control.
Jiang Yong pulled out his sword and yelled at the top of his lungs to his soldiers: "Quick! Fight back quickly, there are his accomplices outside! Watch him, you two!"
He immediately judged that those crossbow arrows were fired from an attic opposite the restaurant.
In the chaos, nearly half of Jiang Yong's soldiers fell, and the rest hid behind the bunker and exchanged fire with the enemies in the attic opposite. By the time no more crossbow arrows were fired from the attic, the injured Liang Yu had disappeared.
, where they stood were the bodies of two soldiers.
Chen Chang looked at the bloody corpses on the ground and collapsed to the ground. A splitting headache, guilt, shock, regret and other complex emotions poured into his heart, tearing at his sanity hysterically.<
/p>
Although Chen Chang knew that the Northern Qi Dynasty was a short-lived beast dynasty, and from a historical perspective, there was nothing wrong with reporting the Northern Qi's fine works, but seeing so many people die because of him, he still couldn't help but feel guilty.
Am I wrong?
If I didn't come up with this, it wouldn't be like this.
But once the information obtained by Liang Yu is passed on, I don’t know how many people will die in vain.
For a moment, Chen Chang was in a state of confusion.
Shui Ling'er was horrified when she saw Chen Chang trembling all over and his face was pale. She thought he was frightened by the crossbow arrows that were fired at him just now. She hurriedly hugged Chen Chang and cried, "Lang Jun, Lang Jun, what's wrong with you?"
?"
The scene was in chaos, so naturally no one paid too much attention to the two of them.
Of course, Lou Shaokang, who had always coveted Shui Ling'er's beauty, saw the scene in front of him. He couldn't help but sneer in his heart. After all, he was a scholar who had never seen the world. He was so frightened that he hid in the woman's arms and his whole body was like chaff.
Is such a person worthy of lifelong reliance?
"Cough cough cough..." Lou Shaokang pretended to cough in order to attract Shui Ling'er's attention, so that she would know that he was the one who could be entrusted with his life.
"Lang Jun, on your head..."
Lou Shaokang suddenly turned his head when he heard this, and saw the big-mouthed servant pointing at his head and hesitated to speak, with a very strange expression.
He subconsciously stretched out his hand and touched it. It was greasy and slippery, and then he realized that there were leftover vegetable leaves on his head. Shui Ling'er happened to glance over here intentionally or unintentionally. Mr. Lou Dalang couldn't help but blush, became furious, and yelled at the servant.
It's a rant.
The big-mouthed servant didn't expect that he would kindly remind his husband, but he was scolded so badly that he felt extremely aggrieved.
For Jiang Yong, letting a craftsman escape from under his nose when he was prepared was simply a great shame and humiliation.
Jiang Yong almost bit his steel teeth into pieces, and was so angry that he chopped off a corner of the short table with a knife. He never expected that Liang Yu would have someone to help him, and when he chased him to the attic opposite, the building was empty.
If I had known this, I should have been cruel at that time. Even if I didn't save Xia Zuo's life, I would still be injured and unable to move. But now, it's all in vain.
Not only that, the crossbow arrows were being shot in dense numbers just now. If he had been slower to dodge, he would have turned into a porcupine at this moment.
Jiang Yong secretly recuperated for a while, his mood calmed down a little, and with a quick glance, he ordered someone to take the teapot that he had just snatched from Liang Yu's hand, opened the lid, and stretched out two fingers to touch the inside of the teapot.
He took out an oil paper bag the size of a copper coin, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
He opened it carefully and found that the oil paper was densely wrapped in three layers and attached to the inside of the pot wall on one side of the handle. Wrapped inside was a small wax pill the size of a fingernail.
After crushing the wax balls, a piece of rattan paper filled with tiny characters came into view. This kind of paper is made of rattan bark. The paper is even and smooth, as white as jade, and leaves no ink.
His eyes moved up and down along with the densely packed small characters, and a smile gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth...
