In the shade of the trees next to the wall, a man in black curled up in the shadow of a tree trunk and looked around, at this time the lights in the inn were mostly extinguished, only the lights on the second floor were flickering, the man in black was curious, and when he was about to go to check, the light went out, and he was stunned and heard a reprimand above his head: "Bold rats."

The man in black was startled at first, and then saw a woman in plain clothes and a green shirt with a bare head pointing at him, so he slowly walked out of the darkness, raised his eyebrows and touched his chin, and said with a smile: "It's a good look, it's still a practitioner, but it's okay to play like this, it's more exciting, by the way, has the fairy been washed that day......"

"Looking for death" Su Jing was furious and stabbed with his sword, the man in black hurriedly drew his knife to block, but the fast sword that resisted Su Jing, stabbed out more than ten swords in an instant, forcing the man in black to retreat more than ten steps in a hurry, and suddenly one of them went up to the wall, pointed at Su Jing and scolded: "Stinky nun, Lao Tzu is staring at you" said and disappeared into the night.

Su Jing stood in place, his face was solemn, this person's light body kung fu was already extraordinary and rare in the holy rivers and lakes, the courtyard wall of the inn should be one zhang high, he could almost jump up without borrowing strength, it was really shocking.

didn't know what the origin of this thief was, but Su Jing looked at the tip of his bloodstained sword, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Guest, what's going on?" The sound of the fight alarmed the shopkeeper and other tenants to open the window and look, and the shopkeeper turned up a lamp and asked, but saw that Su Jing was carrying a sword, and there was blood on it, and he was immediately frightened.

"I saw a thief," Su Jing said lightly, turning around and going back to the room.

"Master, who is that thief?" In the room, Lianxin asked tremblingly.

"A thief is a thief, and he can ...... It should be a flower thief," Su Jing exhaled deeply, and pressed the doors and windows against the tables and chairs.

"Flower thief? What kind of thief is that? Lianxin asked a little silly and sweetly, Su Jing turned her head to look at her, and sighed: "You'll know if you meet more in the future."

Lianxin didn't understand why she met so much, but she didn't dare to ask when she saw Su Jing's cold look, so she went to bed and lay down, and couldn't sleep because of her strange thoughts.

In the middle of the afternoon, Su Jing left the inn with the lotus heart, just out of the store felt that today was very different from usual, there were almost no pedestrians on the street, this is Furong Street, one of the most prosperous streets in Jinan City, it is busy on weekdays.

It's weird, Su Jing raised her eyebrows, and then returned to the inn, and asked the guy who ran around: "Is there any strange person or something strange happening in the store early in the morning?" ”

The shopkeeper snorted: "I didn't see the weirdo, but something strange did happen."

"What's weird?" Su Jing's face was cold, she was a single woman who roamed the rivers and lakes, relying not only on her martial arts, but also on her courage and carefulness, she guessed that it was very likely that the thief did something last night, you must know that she almost didn't sleep last night, in case the thief went and returned, until the sky was slightly bright, she fell asleep.

"I don't know who spread it early in the morning, saying that the government buys dried locusts at a high price, and how much is collected" The guy shook his head with a wry smile: "There are a lot of strange things every year, especially this year."

"Ah, buy locusts? Why do you collect that thing, it's still expensive, what a high price? It's not like I'm crazy." Su Jing was very surprised, this was completely different from what he thought.

The guy said seriously: "At first, many people didn't believe it, and went to the yamen to ask, but it was true, now not only the governor yamen, but also the prefect's yamen posted notices, that is, the four city gates have posted notices, it is said that ten cents a catty, this hundred catties can be sold for one or two silver, hey, this is terrible, half of the people of Jinan City and those refugees have gone out of the city to catch locusts."

Belch...... Su Jing was confused, and with a confused face, he took Lianxin to the Dewang Mansion.

King De is not in the palace, Chang Yu is swimming in the ruins of the palace, although it is a ruin, but it is also a beautiful scenery, such as the pearl spring in the later generations is in the palace, at this time Chang Yu squatted on the rockery overgrown with weeds next to it and watched the spring water gurgling.

"Brother Chang, I'm not afraid of falling and falling" Lianxin looked worried from afar, and Su Jing glanced back at her: "Although the little overseer is approachable, we have to be measured as our subordinates, don't call Chang Xiaoge Chang, it's not appropriate."

"Yes, master" Lianxin bowed her head in response.

Under the shade of the tree by the Pearl Spring, Chang Yu was half-lying on the chair squinting, Li Muxian was making tea with spring water, Su Jing casually said what happened last night, Chang Yu frowned: "A flower thief with excellent light skills" said and looked at Wu Zhong, who was lying in the shade of the tree not far away, with hay in his mouth.

"Blood Bat Tang Ningzhong!" Wu Zhong turned over and walked to Su Jing: "He's wearing a red robe?" ”。

Su Jing shook his head: "It's too dark to tell the difference" There was a murderous aura when he spoke, and he sneered: "If you provoke me, he will die."

Wu Zhong put away his uninhibited past and said with a straight face: "In the future, you have to be very careful, Tang Ningzhong is extremely insidious, his martial arts skills may not be as good as yours, but he is very good at all kinds of chickens and dogs, and he can't be careless."

Su Jing was a little surprised, this big man who was full of killing intent towards her yesterday actually cared about himself at this time, but he didn't know that Wu Zhong's killing intent was actually just a fighting intent, a kind of eagerness to meet a master, and for Su Jing, an extreme person, it was either kindness or malice!

"I've been walking the rivers and lakes for four years, and I've never seen any kind of indiscriminate abuse, and his name as a blood bat can't scare me!" Su Jing said with a proud face and disdain.

Wu Zhong snorted: "Lao Tzu didn't dare to say this for fourteen years of walking in the rivers and lakes, I have fought with the blood bat several times, and I was escaped by it, how can I be a general."

These words are extremely pure and competitive: "That's because your skills are not as good as others, that guy has escaped from my hands, and there will be no second time" Wu Zhongjian was kind to the liver and lungs of a donkey, and this bald ni always spoke with a weird yin and yang to hurt people, so he was drunk by Chang Yu when he was about to attack.

Then he said to Su Jing: "In the future, try to leave the group as little as possible, if you find the traces of the blood bat, don't act recklessly, the big guys will surround them and eliminate harm for the people!" ”

Su Jing was not convinced, and wanted to say a few willful words, but when she saw Chang Yu's eyes, she was suddenly shocked, it was the first time she had seen such a murderous look.

How many people the little eunuch has to kill?

At noon, Zhu Youli still did not come back, but the housekeeper of the palace did not neglect the guests of the palace, and entertained Chang Yu and his party with good wine and food.

After the meal, Chang Yu was about to take a nap, and hurriedly came to report: there was a large-scale brawl outside the city.

Who and whom?

The two battalions of the Black Tiger and the Black Panther of the Dongchang Guard and the officers and soldiers defending the city.

Chang Yu was surprised, and then remembered the gatekeeper who spoke ruthlessly: "That...... He must have been beaten up miserably."

Guo Ren nodded with a wry smile: "I've seen the humble position, but I'm miserable."

"Let's listen to it in detail," Chang Yule said.

Shandong people have always been upright, and their temper is also hot and better, and the hundred household officials who guarded the door formed a bond with Tu Yuan and Jia Waixiong because they were whipped twice, even if they learned that the other party was Dongchangwei, they couldn't swallow it.

In the local land realm, in front of hundreds of brothers, you can't let it go, this time you have to get it back, it just so happens that the two camps did not enter the city, they camped near the city gate, and from time to time they went to the city gate to wander around, and there was no conflict again.

Finally, after a day of fermentation, this morning, when the people and refugees in and outside the city went to catch locusts, they all felt that the time had come.

First of all, the guards took the initiative to invite the battle: you don't need to fight alone or group beating with your bare hands, and if you are beaten and injured, you can hold back, don't find your head and cry your nose.

For this kind of request, Tu Yuan and Jia Waixiong have never refused, so the two sides were on the moat outside the city gate, first catching each other, and then more than ten people beat each other, and finally staged a big melee of hundreds of people.

As a result, it is not difficult to imagine that the soldiers of the two battalions of the Dongchang Guard are all battle-hardened soldiers, and dealing with these gatekeepers who seem to be awesome and coaxing are extraordinary, they can really be described as devastating.

"Tu Yuan and Lao Jia are a little dark, hundreds of guards are all colored, and more than 20 people are ...... with bone wounds," he shook his head.

Chang Yu sighed: "With such a large group frame, Liu Zeqing should have heard the news earlier."

"He is the head snake of the land, and he can't hide any wind and grass in Jinan City, so he must have known it early," said Guo Ren. Chang Yu snorted: "Since he already knew about it, he didn't say anything, which means that he recognized this matter and turned it into a trivial matter." Even so, we shouldn't have happened...... However, if you take some silver taels and give them to the guards, you will say that it is the medical expenses given by the Dongchang guards."

"I'm afraid that people won't accept it, don't think we're humiliating them......" Guo Ren said worriedly, Chang Yu snorted: "You look at these guards too backbone, no one will give money and can't get by."
