Chapter 51: The Lady in Taibo City

A diner at the dinner table asked: "Master Luo, what's the story next?"

The young man shook the folding fan on his chest and said with a smile: "Hey, officer, don't worry, just listen to what I'm going on to say."

"The female assassin was said to have been in a coma for three full days at Butcher Ma's house. When she woke up, she found herself lying on a big bed, covered with a quilt.

She wanted to stand up, but as soon as her body moved, the wound on her chest began to hurt unbearably. The pain made her grit her teeth. She couldn't get up at all, so she had no choice but to lie on the bed, thinking about the current situation.

After a while, the door of the room opened, and a bald man walked in. This man was the Horse Butcher. The Horse Butcher was fat and strong, with a square face. He wore a vest and exposed his big belly. His belly was covered with chest hair.

Seeing a man who looked like this and had such an appearance walking by carrying a basin, the female assassin looked very wary.

Seeing that the female assassin had woken up, Ma Butcher was happy and said, "Hey, you're awake. You've been in a coma for three days. I thought you wouldn't wake up."

As he spoke, he carried the pottery basin to the bedside and said, "Come on, you are hungry. Drink some pork rib soup. It will be good for the wound."

He took a spoon and scooped up a spoonful of soup and brought it to the female assassin's mouth. The female assassin tightened her lips and tilted her head to the side. Seeing this, the butcher Ma had no choice but to put the spoon back into the pot."

A diner who heard this scene asked the young man: "Master Luo, the female assassin was in a coma for three days and three nights. Didn't the horse butcher do something to her?"

The surrounding male diners laughed loudly after hearing this, and shouted: "Yes, yes, Master Luo, has the horse butcher done anything to the female assassin?"

Master Luo chuckled, closed and opened the folding fan, and said to the diner: "You guessed it!"

Everyone in the restaurant laughed and said nothing, and Klaus was also happy. While eating the food, he looked at the young man named Master Luo. He was quite interesting, similar to the troubadour in the tavern in his world.

"It's interesting, I'll reward you!"

There was a sound from the second floor, and some silver fell and flew towards Taichung. The young man saw the falling silver. He closed his folding fan, caught the silver with his fan, and lifted the silver upward. The silver flew into the air and landed on his white and tender palm.

, weighed the silver, showed a smile, put it into his sleeves, raised his hands and bowed to the man who threw the silver on the second floor: "Thank you, sir."

On the second floor, there were two men sitting on a table next to the fence. One man was dressed in luxurious clothes, and the other was in simple clothes. Klaus's open mental power could see that the two men were sitting on the railing next to them.

, leaning on two swords. The energy and blood in his body are much stronger than those of ordinary people, so he must be a swordsman in the world.

The sum of money thrown to Master Luo was thrown by the man in rich clothes.

"Snapped!"

A sound of alarm sounded, and Master Luo continued: "The female assassin did not drink soup. Just as the butcher Ma opened his mouth to speak, there was a knock on the door, and someone shouted, search, search! Hurry and open the door.

Put the pottery pot with ribs on the table and walk out the door.

Ma Butcher opened the door and saw, oh, regular customers, it’s that team of soldiers who came to search again. It turns out that General Cheng Pu has been sending soldiers to search the whole city in the past few days, and the soldier who took 20 kilograms of pork from Ma Butcher that day,

I have been here every day for the past few days, and every time I take away 20 kilograms of pork from the horse butcher.

Although the horse butcher knew this was extortion, he felt guilty and had no choice but to give it to them. In the past few days, almost half of the pigs had been taken away from him.

Ma Butcher closed the door and returned to the house. He saw that the female assassin had sat up from the bed. He picked up the pottery basin from the table, sat down by the bed again, and said to the female assassin: "In order to save you, these days,

The searching soldiers come every day and have already extorted half a pig from me."

He smiled and said to the female assassin: "Pork is so expensive now, tell me what you want to compensate me for."

The female assassin looked at him coldly, "You changed the clothes on me!"

"Hush!"

Master Luo stretched out his hands to signal for silence: "Don't make noises, please. It's a serious love story. What are you thinking about?"

"Bang!" A gavel sounded again.

The horse butcher smiled at the female assassin and said, "You were so seriously injured and your clothes were covered in blood, so I changed them for you."

He scooped a spoonful of soup and put it in the mouth of the female assassin. The female assassin kept her mouth closed and still refused to drink. He said to her: "A few days ago, General Cheng Pu encountered an assassination attempt. Most of the assassins who assassinated the general were killed on the spot. It is said that only

One assassin escaped, and it was you."

The female assassin heard what Butcher Ma said and looked at him nervously. Butcher Ma looked at her and said, "Now the whole city is searching for your whereabouts. Once your news is known to them, you will definitely die."

The horse butcher's tone increased, "I picked you up from the street, and now your life is mine. It doesn't matter whether you are hungry or not, but if you starve and lose your body, it will be me."

The female assassin stared at him aggrievedly, "Stop staring. The pill in your mouth is probably for suicide. I found it when I checked your body and I have already thrown it away."

The female assassin was shocked when she heard something hit her mouth, and her closed mouth opened subconsciously. "Open your mouth and drink this soup!"

The female assassin looked at Butcher Ma's fierce eyes and had no choice but to drink the soup that was handed to her mouth, "Suck it!" It was delicious, and Butcher Ma specially added coriander.

One spoonful or two, the female assassin drank it happily. Butcher Ma scooped up another piece of ribs for the female assassin. "Here, don't just drink the soup, eat a piece of ribs."

Just like that, at night, Butcher Ma finished feeding the female assassin her dinner and did not leave, but prepared to sleep.

The female assassin looked nervous at Ma Butcher's movements and asked him: "What are you doing!"

Ma Butcher smiled sheepishly, "This is the only bed in my house. I have rheumatism, so you can't let me sleep on the floor. By the way, you slept like this for the past three days when you were in coma. Don't worry, you're so thin. Why?

Let’s squeeze in some sleep.”

In this way, the female assassin spent a frightening night. She didn't sleep well. The horse butcher snored loudly, and he actually kicked off the quilt.

The next day, Butcher Ma woke up and found that he was sleeping in his bed, and that the female assassin had disappeared from the bed. In a hurry, he wanted to get out of bed to look for her, but as soon as he settled down, he felt a soft feeling.

"Ah!" A scream came from under my feet. When I looked down, I found that the female assassin was actually at my feet, and I quickly carried her back to the bed.

Asked the female assassin why you slept down there, the female assassin just laughed. It turned out that last night, Butcher Ma kicked the female assassin to the ground.

Two months later, the female assassin recovered from her injuries and became more popular. She also gained weight twice. Although Ma Butcher was reluctant to give up, he decided to let the female assassin go.

The night the female assassin left, Butcher Ma drank a lot. When it was time to kill the pigs, he steeled himself and got out of bed. When the pigs were killed in the morning, he was exhausted and just wanted to go home and have a good sleep.

.

When I got home, I opened the bedroom door and found that the female assassin who had left was actually sitting at the table in the room. Butcher Ma was overjoyed and asked her: "Why are you back again!"

The female assassin curled her lips and said weakly: "I was thinking, the food I had in Korea was not as good as here, and I came back halfway."

If the assassination fails and one person comes back alive, according to the rules of the assassin organization, she will also be executed if she returns.

In this way, the female assassin and the horse butcher lived a happy life."

"Snapped!"

The gavel sounded, and the young man put down his folding fan, picked up his teacup, and took a sip of tea.

A voice came from the audience: "Tsk~ What a clichéd ending!"

The boy in blue put down the tea, picked up the folding fan and smiled politely: "Master, don't worry, I'm just thirsty to moisten my throat, the story hasn't been finished yet!"

"Later, because Ma Tu killed pigs every day, he saved some savings and opened a pig-killing workshop. A year later, the female assassin gave birth to a daughter for Ma Tu.

Life should have been like this. But when their daughter was three months old, something happened.

The sun was very bright that day, the butcher horse was out delivering pork, and the female assassin was showing off her baby in the alley with several female neighbors.

When she got home, she saw a letter on the table. She panicked when she saw the letter. There was a symbol on the envelope, which was the special symbol of the Korean Red Sand Assassins.

It turns out that there is a new handyman in the pig-killing workshop. This handyman is disguised as a Korean assassin group. South Korea and the Dai Kingdom have fought several wars in the past few years, starting in winter and spring and ending in summer and autumn. Cheng Putai, the general of the Dai Kingdom

Due to the difficulties, South Korea decided to plan another assassination. It sent many assassins to hide in the city where Cheng Pu lived.

The assassin who was undercover in the pig killing house had trained with the female assassin, recognized her, and asked her to meet tonight.

At night, the female assassin waited until Butcher Ma and his daughter fell asleep, then sneaked out.

But he discovered that his wife was acting weird and thought she was having an affair, so he followed her out secretly.

After arriving at the designated location, the female assassin met the undercover assassin. The assassin asked her to help them assassinate General Cheng Pu, otherwise he would take the lives of Ma Butcher and her daughter. In order to protect her family, the female assassin agreed.

When Butcher Ma saw his wife coming back, he didn't say anything. He came back before her and lay down on the bed pretending to be asleep.

Some days later, the assassins lurking in the city chose a suitable time and launched an assassination attempt on General Cheng Pu. General Cheng Pu was heavily guarded and the assassination failed.

That night, the female assassin returned home very late. Butcher Ma noticed the injury on the female assassin's leg, but said nothing and just secretly shed tears.

A few days later, the horse butcher delivered the meat home as usual. However, he found that his infant daughter was the only one at home, but his wife was nowhere to be seen. He found a letter left by his wife beside his bed.

It turned out that the leader of the South Korean assassins organized two assassinations, both of which failed, and the assassin group suffered heavy losses. After investigation, they felt that the female assassin was leaking secrets, and decided to arrest her for interrogation. In the letter left by the female assassin,

He wrote, don't go to her, forget her, find a good man.

The horse butcher was so sad that he realized that he had misunderstood his wife and decided to look for her. He entrusted his daughter to a neighbor's aunt. He closed the pig slaughterhouse and embarked on the road to find his wife alone.

First, he used a large amount of pork to bribe General Cheng Pu's advisers and obtained the approximate hiding location of the Korean Assassin Group.

Due to years of war, Dai's military expenditures were tight, and the price of pork rose too fast. People in the general's mansion had not eaten pork for several months. The counselors were moved by the amount of pork, and told Butcher Ma all they had about the Korean assassins.

All information about the group.

You may ask again, why did Ma Tie tell the information about the Korean Assassin Group to an ordinary person, Ma Butcher? Because he saw hatred in Ma Butcher’s eyes. What does it matter even if he told him the enemy’s information? Besides, he saw hatred in Ma Butcher’s eyes.

And as for pork, it’s not about the human side, it’s about the meat side.

In this way, Butcher Ma went to South Korea with two butcher knives and found the Assassin regiment's base in South Korea.

Then he infiltrated the assassin group as a chef. After several inquiries, he finally found out the whereabouts of his wife.

After learning that his wife was imprisoned by the assassin leader, he began to make a plan to rob the prison and secretly prepared a lot of private work while going abroad to purchase goods.

At noon that day, everyone in the Assassin's base fled collectively, and Butcher Ma carried two kitchen knives in the base to kill gods and Buddhas, and rescued his wife from the prison."

When Master Luo said this, he paused, looked around, looked at the diners who were listening attentively, and said: "Everyone, some people may be wondering, since Ma Butcher disguised himself as a chef at the assassin base, why did he give them laxatives when they were eating?

No poison?

You must know that he is just an ordinary person. He cannot get poisons that are too advanced. Ordinary poisons are exposed as soon as they are eaten, and can only harm a few people. Moreover, when he goes out to buy, he is accompanied by others, making it inconvenient.

.

He could only work hard on the ingredients for today's meal. It turned out that there was a pufferfish in the fish soup he made today. The pufferfish is highly poisonous and will kill people after eating it. After eating a small amount, it will not directly

It can cause death. But it can also cause symptoms such as numbness in the upper lip, weakness in the limbs, nausea, vomiting, and unsteady gait.

And he mixed a small amount of croton flour into today's staple food of steamed buns. Everyone in the Assassin Base felt that today's fish soup was particularly delicious while eating, and they couldn't help but eat a few more steamed buns. After they all finished eating

, symptoms appeared after a while, including weakness in limbs, vomiting and diarrhea. Even when the horse butcher broke into the prison with a kitchen knife, they had no power to stop him.

When the female assassin saw Ma Butcher breaking into the prison again, she couldn't believe her eyes. She asked him in surprise why are you here?

Butcher Ma just smiled honestly and said, "If you weren't here, I would kick the quilt at night and no one would cover me."

In this way, Ma Butu and his wife escaped from the Assassin's base. Although they escaped from the Assassin's base and returned to Dai, they were still pursued by South Korea.

The Korean monarch was furious. The Korean Assassin Corps had never been so humiliated since its establishment. He ordered that the pursuers must bring back the heads of the horse butcher and the female assassin.

During the pursuit by the Korean army, Butcher Ma and the female assassin left the road and fled into the mountains. Under the siege of the army, they fled to the edge of a cliff. They lamented that there was no hope of survival, held hands and jumped off the cliff together."

"Snapped!"

The gavel fell, and the young man put away the folding fan and said, "This is the end of the story. Dear readers, we will see you tomorrow."

The young man was about to leave when someone in the audience asked: "Master Luo, did the horse butcher and the female assassin die after they jumped off the cliff?"

The young man looked back at the person who asked the question, sticking out his tongue, "Lululu! The story is over, why should I tell you.?乛v乛?"

Watching the boy leave, Klaus called the waiter over and asked him: "What's that boy's name? It's so interesting."

The waiter smiled and explained to him: "That one is Luo Tianyi, the son of the richest man in the Wu Kingdom and the young master of the Luo Family Courtyard.

We usually call him Mr. Luo, because he didn’t want to inherit his father’s family property, so he started his own business. He opened the Yuhua House by himself. When he had nothing to do, he would come to the restaurant to be a storyteller and tell everyone a few stories.

To attract popularity.”

"Oh! It's okay, you can go down." Klaus felt that the boy was very interesting and he was very interested in him now.

Master Luo left the restaurant and came to a meat restaurant.

"Sister Sha'er, give me two sauced pork knuckles."

This is a shop that sells meat and cooked food. The shop's surname is Ma, and the owner is a young woman in her early 20s.

Although the woman's face is shiny and shiny, she has a good natural foundation and the oil cannot cover up her beautiful face.

The woman saw the young man and greeted him with a smile: "Master Luo is here. Wait a minute, I will pick the two best sauced pork knuckles for you."

After saying that, he picked two pickled pork knuckles, wrapped them in lotus leaves, tied them with a rope, and handed them to Master Luo.

Master Luo took the pig's knuckle and took out a piece of silver from his sleeve. It was the amount of silver that the man in the restaurant gave him as a reward. "Here it is, Sister Sha'er doesn't have to look for it."

Sha'er was a little embarrassed: "Ten taels, this is too much. Master Luo is so embarrassed." As he said this, he stuffed the money into the bag sewn in his apron.

"This is the reward for Sister Sha'er telling me stories."

Shaer smiled and said: "Well, young master, next time you want to hear a story, come to me and I will make up a better one for you!"

"Meeting Sister Sha'er!"

Sister Shaer waved her hand to Master Luo, "Come often, Master!"

Looking at Master Luo's retreating figure, he sighed: "It's so rare for a rich man to be so handsome and polite!"

The clerk in the store walked aside and said to Sha'er: "Sister Sha, don't look at it. If you look at the pork, it will not be sold anymore."

Sha'er kicked him: "What nonsense are you talking about? Why don't you sell your meat quickly!"

The boy who got kicked muttered: "That's right. You have so many people, but you are still a butcher. How can I, a rich man, like you?"

After hearing what the guy said, Sha'er didn't refute, but just sighed.
