Starting from Wushan Town, passing through Shengkang Town, Xianrendu Town and Miaotan Town, Mu Xiaojiu Shuisen and the four of them sped up a lot in the next two days, and arrived at the first city along the way, Xiangyang City, within two days. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xiangyang City is located on the south bank of the upper reaches of the Han River, about the beginning of the construction of the Western Han Dynasty Emperor Gao six years, surrounded by water on three sides, one side of the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Liu Biao went to Xiangyang and became the pastor of Jingzhou, it has become the governing land of the state, county, government and county. The old city was also used as a military fortress until the Tang Dynasty. This city has always been valued by the soldiers of all dynasties, and it can be regarded as a battleground for soldiers, and it is one of the most famous ancient city building defense systems in the Central Plains.

When Mu Xiaojiu and the others arrived in Xiangyang, it was only halfway through, and they could have continued to hurry, but because they had been traveling day and night for the past two days, they were a little tired, so several people were ready to rest in Xiangyang first, and then continue to rush tomorrow morning.

Just after the inspection at the city gate, Wu Zhen opened his mouth to complain about why the guards were so strict, and everyone's eyes were attracted by a place that was surrounded by water.

"Xiao Jiu, look over there, there are so many people around, but I didn't hear any gongs, drums, cheers, and I don't know where it is." Mizumori said with a frown.

Mu Xiaojiu also shook his head, "I don't know, I haven't been to this Xiangyang City either." ”

Wu Zhen responded happily, "I know, I know, there is a place to post a notice at the gate of Xiangyang City, last time I went to Huangzhou City with my master, and when I passed by Xiangyang, a senior brother said that he learned about the Huangzhou bandits here." Looking at so many people over there, maybe something happened again. ”

As soon as he heard Wuzhen's words, Mu Xiaojiu suddenly became interested, "Go over and have a look?" ”

Mizumori and the others had no objections, and the four of them simply walked towards the crowd.

As soon as he got close to the crowd, he heard someone inside whispering: "Why doesn't this kind of demon die, isn't it a scourge to the world to stay in the world?" But it's also strange to say, it's just that the six doors don't take care of it, why don't those who call themselves heroes on weekdays come out to take care of it? ”

At this time, someone defended the heroes' words, "You are stupid, how old is this devil?" If those masters of the older generation make a move, won't they lose their identity? This kind of person should have a few young heroes to teach a lesson. ”

"Young Yingjie is okay too!" The man spread his hands, "Two days ago, when I listened to someone talk about books in that cage of smoke and rain, I also heard Bai Xiaosheng say that there are a few very powerful people in the younger generation now, what are the three evils, three righteous and three evil, don't talk about the three evils and the three evils, and I haven't seen them come out of that bullshit Sanzheng." ”

As soon as the man finished speaking, a young man scolded behind him: "If you dare to speak disrespectfully, beware of your head!" ”

The man was startled, and was about to turn around and scold, but found that there were four young men standing behind him, each with a sword, glaring angrily at him, and he didn't dare to scold immediately, so he could only whisper: "Isn't what I said wrong, this notice was posted at noon yesterday, and I haven't seen anyone come out to uncover the notice." ”

At this time, the most richly dressed of the four young men frowned slightly, and said, "Go and see who is wanted on the notice, if it is a cat or a dog, let's go." ”

A disciple answered, and then shouted "let one let let one let go" as he walked into the crowd and looked at the notice.

"Senior brother, the one who is wanted is the Northern Demon Head of the Three Evildoers, Yang Tou!"

The senior brother suddenly became interested, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "Yang Tou, hehe, take off the wanted warrant, I want to see how the martial arts of this person who is called with me are, and whether he is qualified enough." ”

Originally, the soldiers standing on both sides of the wanted warrant wanted to prevent them from revealing the list, but as soon as the senior brother said this, the soldier was stunned, and then asked very respectfully: "I don't know what the young man is......"

It wasn't the senior brother who answered, but one of his three junior brothers.

"My senior brother is the sword immortal in the Three Righteous - Xiao Jianyin!"

Shui Sen almost couldn't hold back his laughter, he hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, and then whispered, "Xiao Jianyin? Isn't that just a little slut? ”

Mu Xiaojiu thought for a while, and then said with some tears and laughter: "Don't say it, it's really true." Little slut, I don't know why he got such a name. ”

At this time, Xiao Jianyin's junior brother had already pulled the wanted warrant into his hand, and then returned to Xiao Jianyin's side, "Senior brother, it said that Yang Tou slaughtered a small village under the jurisdiction of Shouning County near Ningde, and there was not a single living person in the village, should we go directly to Shouning or continue to Longquan?" ”

What Xiao Jianyin said later, Mu Xiaojiu and the others didn't continue to listen, because Mu Xiaojiu had already dragged a few people to other places.

"Meizhou, Ningde, Yang Tou, this kid is just afraid that he is either wandering around, or, he is looking for some destination and going over there." Mu Xiaojiu frowned, "We have to think about it, where is this guy going to go." ”

Shui Sen nodded, and then smiled bitterly, "This guy is a crazy person now, what do you think." ”

Mu Xiaojiu pursed his lips, "This guy must be going for something, it is impossible to go to a place for no reason, the big thing we have heard about recently should only be the treasure map that the person named said that night." ”

"You mean, the Jiangnan area?" Shui Sen looked at Mu Xiaojiu and asked casually.

Mu Xiaojiu nodded, "The direction is also right, let's go, but it's not safe, let's go, let's go find a teahouse tavern, Bai Xiaosheng should know more about the recent events." ”

Shui Sen responded, and the group of four began to find a place for Bai Xiaosheng in this Xiangyang City.

……

In Xiangyang City, if you ask any random person where there is a good teahouse, nine out of ten people will tell you the same name - a cage of smoke and rain.

To tell the truth, a cage of smoke and rain is definitely the best, the most high-grade, the most luxurious, the best tea, but also the most expensive teahouse in Xiangyang City. In a cage of smoke and rain, a pot of the most ordinary hair tip or daughter red, to say the least, costs a tael of silver.

In some teahouses, a pot of the same hair tip is half a penny, and a pot of daughter red is cheaper than this.

Of course, the tea is the same tea, but the master who makes the tea is different, the same tea, a cage of smoke and rain of tea doctor rushed out is better than other teahouses. What's more, there are still people who read books, some people sing, and some people dance.

What people sell is not tea, but craftsmanship, environment, and enjoyment.

This is also the reason why a cage of smoke and rain is so famous in Xiangyang City.

Because he heard someone mention it on the notice before, Mu Xiaojiu also remembered it, and walked in directly when he saw the sign of a cage of smoke and rain.

After the four of them sat down, someone walked up and asked politely, "Guest officer, what are you doing?" ”

Mu Xiaojiu actually wanted to say that he would give me a Bai Xiaosheng, but after thinking about it, he was here, so it was better to drink two glasses, so he asked, "Do you have any special good wine?" ”

The little second smiled, "This guest officer, you are the right one, we have a kind of self-brewed wine in a cage of smoke and rain, and no one else has it." This wine is called the anointing thunder, and it is soft on the palate, but the aroma is extremely intense, and when you enter the throat, you will be immersed in the aroma of the wine. ”

Mu Xiaojiu suddenly came to his senses, "Bring me a pot of this anointing thunder, and then make another pot...... Tieguanyin. ”

"Tieguanyin has two kinds: green heart and red heart, I don't know which one do you want?"

"Let's pick up the light ones." Mu Xiaojiu looked at Wuzhen, and after getting his affirmative answer, he asked the little second to prepare.

There are two layers of smoke and rain, and it is divided into three areas, listening to books is one place, listening to music is another, and watching dances is another, because the four people mainly came to listen to Bai Xiaosheng talk about the recent major events on the rivers and lakes, so they sat directly on the storyteller's side.

At this time, Bai Xiaosheng in front of him was talking about the Dayuan auction, which was the one that Mu Xiaojiu and Wuzhen had participated in.

"That auction, hey, everyone knows, that Longquan Sword Sect's contemporary Ou Yezi bought a treasure, which is a fist-sized piece of Ugin."

"When asked, Ou Yezi said that he was going to use this black gold to forge a posthumous work and pass it on to time."

"Who is Ou Yezi? Master of Swordsmithing! How unusual is his posthumous work? I dare to say that countless people have been waiting for the people of the Longquan Sword Sect to appear recently. Why, because of the calculation of time, the posthumous work of Ou Yezi's predecessors is about to be cast, can you not go to Longquan and wait? ”

"Although no one knows where the Longquan Sword Shrine is, every time the people of the Longquan Sword Sect appear, they are selling swords in this Longquan place, so it is estimated that countless people from the rivers and lakes have gathered in Longquan now."

"Longquan...... People from the rivers and lakes gathered...... Mu Xiaojiu muttered, and suddenly said: "Lao Shui, do you say that this Yang Tou is going to Longquan?" ”

Shui Sen was listening happily, listening to Mu Xiaojiu's question, he replied casually with some indifference: "Yang Tou uses a knife, what is he doing in Longquan?" ”

Mu Xiaojiu shook his head, "Yang Tou's target is most likely not the sword of Master Ou Yezi and the Longquan Sword Sect. ”

Shui Sen's attention was suddenly pulled back by Mu Xiaojiu's words, and he said in shock: "You mean, he went to those people in the rivers and lakes!?" ”

Mu Xiaojiu nodded solemnly, "That's right, I think he is probably going for those people in the rivers and lakes." There are many people in the rivers and lakes over there, and he is obsessed with grabbing people's internal power, so isn't Longquan the best place for him? As long as he hides in the shadows and waits for an opportunity to attack, all those who are weak in the martial arts will basically be his food. ”

Shui Sen smiled bitterly, "This idea is too crazy, he is wanted now, Longquan can be said to him to be Longtan Tiger's Den - but with his current level of madness, this matter is really possible." ”
