At the end of the street, there is a huge house. It seems that like the yellow leaves on the branches, it is about to wither.
Outside the two spring-painted doors, almost no guests had visited in a long time. The spring-painted doors looked brand new, but the sound of the brass rings on the doors had not clicked for a long time.
Noisy human voices have been heard within the high walls for a long time. Only in early autumn and late summer, the whispers of autumn insects and the chirping of birds can occasionally be heard, which further accentuates the loneliness and desolation of this house.
Yes, Li Garden has come to an end!
In the eyes of many locals in Baoding City, Xingyun Village has declined since it was renamed Li Yuan!
But this house also had its glory days, because it was here that seven Jinshi scholars and three prostitutes were born, including a famous martial arts hero who was extremely talented and unparalleled in the world.
Even half a year ago, when the owner of this house changed, many events that caused a stir in the martial arts world still happened here, and it is unknown how many all-powerful martial arts masters were buried here.
After that, the house suddenly became silent, and its two generations of owners suddenly became silent and unknown.
Although passers-by on the street occasionally see the hostess of Li Yuan, the once iceberg beauty, now her eyes are not only bright, but her mouth also smiles from time to time.
But in the eyes of secular people, Li Yuan became lonely because of this!
So there is a kind of terrible legend among the rivers and lakes, saying that this place is hidden and unknown!
There is even a rumor that is beginning to stir up people in the martial arts world. It is that the priceless famous paintings collected by three generations of the Li family are hidden in the Li Garden. Among them are little Li's unique martial arts secrets of flying swords.
Money and silk touch people's hearts. Rather than money and silk touching people's hearts, it is Xiao Li's martial arts secret book about flying knives.
It's just that although the money is good and the martial arts secrets are exciting, Li Yuan has already welcomed back the final owner, and that is the "Xiao Li Flying Knife", which is now ranked fourth in the weapon list.
With this world-famous Tanhua Lang sitting in the battle, ordinary people would not dare to be greedy without permission.
It's just that people's greed is endless, and they don't want to take risks because they don't have enough chips. When another secret of Li Yuan came out, the world went completely crazy.
It is said that Shen Lang, the "No. 1 Hero in the World", was an old acquaintance of Li Xunhuan's father. It is said that after Shen Lang went overseas with Bai Qiqi and others, he handed over what he had learned to Li Xunhuan's father and asked him to work for him.
Find your own successor.
The reason why Li Xunhuan's knife-throwing skills are unparalleled in the world is because Shen Lang left his martial arts to help him.
It is said that Xu Ziyi, the "Deadly Needle" who has become famous in the martial arts world in recent years, made rapid progress in martial arts because he borrowed the martial arts secrets left by Shen Lang in Li Yuan.
Therefore, many strangers have come to Baoding City in recent days.
…
The chicken feather shop opened by Sun Tuozi was extremely busy today.
Sun Tuozi, who was cleaning the table, was also puzzled. In less than half an hour today, three or four groups of customers came to his small shop at once.
The first batch was two people.
One is an old man in blue shirt with gray hair and a cigarette in his hand.
There is also one who must be his granddaughter. When they came to the chicken feather shop, they felt as if they were coming to their own home, without any courtesy.
The second batch also had two people.
Both of them are bearded, tall and strong. Not only are they dressed exactly the same, but the knives hanging on their waists are also exactly the same. They seem to be cast from the same mold.
The third group came with the largest number of people, four in total.
Among these four people, one is tall and the other is short. A young man with a purple face actually has a spear on his shoulder, and the other is a woman wearing green clothes and gold jewelry. She walks with a twist.
She looks like a big girl, but in terms of age, she is the mother of a big girl.
Sun Tuozi was afraid that she would break her waist accidentally.
Only one person came last.
This man was surprisingly thin. He did not carry a sword on his body, but he had a bulging ring around his waist, which was very eye-catching. He was obviously carrying a very thick and long soft weapon.
There were only five tables in the small shop, and almost all of them were occupied as soon as these four groups of people arrived. Sun Tuozi was so busy that he only hoped that the business would not be so good tomorrow.
I saw that these four groups of people were all drinking and talking very little. Even if they spoke, it was in whispers, as if they were afraid that others would hear them.
After drinking a few glasses of wine, the purple-faced boy with the gun on his shoulder fixed his eyes on the girl with the big pigtails. The girl with the pigtails was very generous and didn't care at all.
The purple-faced boy suddenly smiled and said, "Is this girl a singer?"
The girl with the braid shook her head and swung her braid up high, making her look even more delicate.
The purple-faced boy smiled and said: "Even if you don't sing, you can still sing a few lines. As long as you sing well, you will be rewarded a lot."
The braided girl pursed her lips and smiled and said: "I can't sing, I can only tell stories."
The purple-faced boy smiled and said: "Wouldn't that be better? But I don't know what books you can read? Will the talented man meet the beautiful woman in the back garden? The prime minister's daughter will throw hydrangeas?"
The braided girl shook her head and said: "None of them are correct. What I'm talking about is the most sensational news in the world, the recent major events in the martial arts world. I guarantee it will be fresh and exciting."
The purple-faced boy held up his palms and smiled and said: "It's wonderful, wonderful, I think everyone here would like to hear this kind of thing, please tell me quickly."
The braided girl said sweetly: "I can only help, and my grandpa can talk."
When she rolled her eyes like this, the purple-faced boy's soul flew away.
The old man squinted his eyes, drank a glass of wine, and took a puff of cigarette before he said slowly: "Have you ever heard of the name Xu Ziyi?"
Except for the purple-faced boy, everyone paid little attention to the grandfather and grandson, but when they heard the name Xu Ziyi, everyone's ears perked up.
The braided girl smiled and said: "Of course I have heard of it. Isn't it the Xu Ziyi who became famous as soon as he entered the world?"
Old man: "Not bad."
The braided girl said: "I heard that his life-threatening needle has never failed since he took action. Is this true or false?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The old man said: "If you don't believe it, you might as well ask the Five Poison Boy or Master Xinjian, and you will know whether this sentence is true or false."
The braided girl said: "Aren't Bai Xiaosheng and Wudu Boy all dead long ago?"
The old man said: "Yes, they all died because they didn't believe this."
The braided girl asked: "Is his needle faster than Xiao Li's flying knife?"
The old man said: "I don't know! But even Xiao Li Feidao will definitely not be able to do one thing!"
The braided girl asked: "What's the matter?"
The old man said: "Be able to defeat "Silver Halberd Wenhou" Lu Fengxian and "Songyang Iron Sword" Guo Songyang without any injuries!"
After saying this, the old man started smoking the dry cigarette in his hand again.
Hearing this, everyone present changed their expressions.
Lu Fengxian and Guo Songyang were both among the top five masters in the past, but they were defeated by Xu Ziyi at the same time, which naturally shocked everyone.
Counting the "Blue Demon Hand" Yi Chou who died in his hands, there are already three people in the top ten who have been defeated by him so far.
The purple-faced boy frowned and said, "Why haven't I heard this news?"
He obviously had some doubts about the news about the grandfather and grandson.
"Silver Halberd Wenhou" and "Songyang Iron Sword" are both among the top five masters of weapons. If the two of them join forces, no one in the martial arts will be their opponent. What's more, after defeating the two,
I am still unscathed!,
He really couldn't understand this.
However, the lanky man sitting alone at the table sneered: "That's because you are ignorant!"
The purple-faced young man said: "Brother, what do you mean by this?"
However, the lanky man said without even looking at him: "I never talk nonsense to dead people!"
"you……"
Hearing this, the purple-faced boy was obviously angry.
The braided girl asked curiously: "Why did the guest officer say that?"
The man looked around and said word by word: As far as I know, something earth-shattering will happen soon.
A strange light flashed in the girl's eyes: "Where did it happen? When did it happen?"
The thin man slapped the table and said sternly: "Right now, right here!"
After saying these words, the faces of the twin brothers and the four people who came in three batches all changed colors. The woman in green eyes flashed and she said with a sweet smile: I don't see what great things will happen here and now.
The lanky man sneered: "As far as I know, at least six people are going to die here soon!"
Hearing this, the lady in green couldn't help but feel angry, but before she could get up, the burly twin brothers were subdued by the lanky man because of their anger.
Then someone else took action, but was defeated by Slender Tanshou again.
Shocked by this, the six of them no longer dared to act rashly.
Just when the shop fell into silence, someone outside the door sneered.
The faces of the six people changed immediately, and their throats seemed to have been suddenly strangled. Not only could they no longer say a word, but their breathing seemed to have stopped.
Sun Tuozi, who was cleaning the table, couldn't help but squint his eyes, but the six of them were more scared than him, so he couldn't help but follow his gaze and look over.
I saw four people appearing at the door.
These four people were all wearing brightly colored apricot gowns. One of them had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and the other had a sharp nose. They were the two people who asked him for information this morning.
Although they arrived at the door, they did not walk in. They just stood there with their hands down and did not speak. They did not look scary at all.
Sun Tuozi really couldn't figure out how the six people who were so domineering just now were so afraid of them. Looking at the expressions of these six people, these four men in yellow shirts were simply not human beings, but ghosts.
Then I saw the four people at the door stepping out of the way.
A very young man walked in slowly with his hands behind his back.
This young man is also wearing an apricot yellow gown. He is very delicate and has a very gentle attitude. The only difference between him and the other four is that the yellow gown is also trimmed with gold.
Although he looked delicate, his face was cold and expressionless, and his eyes were fixed on the slender man with a green face.
The green-faced man drank wine by himself and ignored him.
A sneer slowly appeared on the corner of the young man's mouth. He slowly turned around and glanced at Chengzu and the other six people with his cold eyes.
The boy in yellow shirt walked slowly over, took out six brass coins from his arms, and placed one on each of the six people's heads.
The six people seemed to have turned into wooden figures, watching helplessly as this man placed things on their heads casually, not even daring to fart.
The young man in yellow shirt still had a few copper coins left, shaking them jinglingly in his hand, his eyes gradually glanced at the grandfather and grandson, and then fell on the slender man with a green face again.
Then the boy in yellow shirt ignored him, put his hands behind his back, and walked out slowly.
What was strange was that these six people immediately followed him out, as if they were being held by a rope.
Each of these six people had sad faces and straightened their necks. Although their feet were walking forward step by step, their upper bodies did not dare to move for fear that the copper coins on their heads would fall.
It hasn't rained for a long time, and the wind and sand in the alley are very strong.
The four men in yellow shirts had drawn dozens of circles on the ground at some point, each circle was only as big as a bowl of soup.
The six people came out and stood in these circles without waiting for others' instructions. Each person stood in a circle, just enough to put his feet in the circle.
The six people immediately seemed to turn into six pieces of wood.
The boy in yellow shirt clasped his hands behind his back again, slowly walked back to the shop, picked a free small table and sat down.
His face was always cold, and he hadn't even said a word until now.
After about two cups of tea, several more people in yellow shirts walked into the alley. These people had different expressions and even weirder looks.
There was someone with one eye, a green-faced and white-haired man in a yellow shirt, an old man with white hair and beard, and finally a one-legged man who slowly appeared.
And they also brought a group of men and women with frightened faces. Like the previous six, these people very wisely chose a circle and stood in it.
Just like that, the alley of Jifei Shop was completely blocked by this group of people.
I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly there was a dull and heavy sound of horse hoofbeats from the end of the alley, and then I saw a carriage parked at the entrance of the alley.
"interesting!"
There was a burst of laughter from the carriage.
Just listen to him say: "Why do you think so many people are willing to stand motionless on the street with copper coins on their heads today?"
