The happy life of a prodigal

When Guanshi Jiang heard this, he looked at him and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Help me kill a few people!"

Jiang Guanshi secretly sighed, and asked: "Are those beggars from here?"

"Yes, I want you to kill them!"

The young master of the Wu family blushed and said these words in a low growl.

When Guanshi Jiang heard this, he showed hesitation. After a while, he raised his eyes, looked at the young master of the Wu family, nodded, and said only one word: "Okay."

............

For the Wu family, one of the three great aristocratic families in Gusu City, secretly killing a few beggars from other places is as simple as walking on the side of the road and crushing a few ants to death.

But the problem is that these few people are not ordinary beggars, they are beggars who have been sheltered by Tang House.

Although I don't know why the eldest son of the Tang Mansion sheltered these beggars, but he did.

Therefore, I can't do it myself, or in other words, this matter can't be handled by people from the Wu Mansion.

Steward Jiang walked out of the room with a gloomy expression. He glanced behind him and walked out of the courtyard.

On the other side, Liu Dong had arrived outside Gusu City with the other two guards from Fangfu.

As the two most prosperous cities in the south of the Yangtze River, and even the entire Chu Kingdom, Gusu City has no such thing as a curfew.

Therefore, there is an endless stream of traders coming and going, even at dusk, there is still an endless stream of carriages and horses on the official road.

Liu Dong stood in front of the city gate, watching the traffic, and for a moment, he even thought he had returned to the capital.

After a moment of trance, they found a place to sit down.

One of the guards took out a deck of cards from his pocket and looked at the other two.

"Come here?"

"Okay, come on!"

Before the other person could speak, Liu Dong shouted with a smile.

Since the young master invented playing cards, the way of entertainment for the guards of the Fangfu has changed from chatting or bragging to fighting the landlords.

Of course, playing cards has been around for a long time, and many ways of playing cards have been circulated in the capital.

But for these Qiuba, it is very rare to remember the rules of fighting the landlord, let alone those other more complicated players.

law.

"One pair three!"

Liu Dong threw out two cards and threw them on the ground.

Just as the person next to him was about to pick it up, he heard a voice behind him: "You sneaky ones, what are you doing here?!"

When Liu Dong and the others heard the voice, Qi Qi turned around and found that it was the soldiers guarding the city.

"Brothers are basking in the sun here, why are you not allowed?"

Liu Dong glared at the soldier and said.

When he followed General Dingyuan in the South and North Wars, he was originally a corporal leader of the Guards Battalion, and he was in charge of five small soldiers.

Even after leaving the army, the iron-blooded temperament on his body is still as strong as ever.

Seeing the three of them, the soldier guarding the city suddenly felt that he was a little shorter, and even took a few steps back subconsciously.

"It's nothing, it's the first time I saw someone basking in the sun at the base of the city wall."

When the soldiers guarding the city saw them, they immediately understood in their hearts that these were all ruthless people who had seen blood, and they were immediately frightened.

The soldiers of Gusu City are completely different from those of the border towns.

Most of these people are from poor families in the two provinces of the south of the Yangtze River, and they joined the army when they couldn't survive. They didn't have any ambitions and ideals.

The geographic location of Gusu City is in the middle of the Chu State. It can be said that if the Chu State reaches the end of the country, the last remaining piece of territory may be here.

Therefore, these guys never thought that they might go to battle to kill the enemy one day, and they usually spend their days in the review field day after day.

Especially for these guards, it's okay to occasionally bully ordinary people who enter the city. Seeing these ruthless people crawling out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood, none of them dare to make trouble.

The soldier who spoke wanted to use the common pretext of 'sneaky, like a spy from an enemy country' to get some oil from the hands of these people.

However, as soon as he saw them, he immediately understood that these people were not something he could provoke.

"It's okay, you guys continue to bask..."

The soldier guarding the city waved his hand and turned to leave.

"baffling......"

Liu Dong muttered a few words, then squatted down, and continued to play his Fight the Landlord.

After two fights against the Landlord, the sun gradually set, and the remaining ray of light became increasingly dimmer.

"Maybe I won't be able to come today."

Liu Dong looked up and said.

There were a few people and a few cars standing sparsely on the official road, obviously they couldn't be the guards mentioned in the young master's letter.

"Let's go back first, come back tomorrow morning..."

After Liu Dong said something, he was about to get up.

At this time, the soldiers who guarded the city around him really quit.

"Why don't you play anymore? Keep playing!"

"Yeah, that's not enough!"

"What is this, why have I never seen it before?"

Liu Dong and the others felt a sense of pride when they heard the discussion coming from beside them.

"You haven't seen it before. These are made by our young master. They are called playing cards. Every household in the capital must have a pair of cards!"

One of the Fangfu guards said.

"card......"

When the soldiers next to him heard this, they all showed expressions of interest and came up together.

"Brother, do you have any extra cards here?"

After the man finished speaking, he seemed to feel that it was not very good, and added: "I don't want it for nothing, I will give you money."

"Only this pair, and there is no money for it."

Liu Dong reached out and snatched the cards, put them in his arms, looked at the young soldiers around him, and said, "I want, brother will bring you a few more cards from the capital next time, but I have to give you money!

Even though this thing is just a few pieces of paper, it is worth money!

That is to say, our brothers are by the young master's side, and we don't need money for this thing. If others want to buy it, they must at least..."

As he spoke, he stretched out five fingers.

"Fifty Wen?"

A soldier nearby asked.

"Five hundred words!"

Liu Dong said loudly.

Chapter 4 and Six

In this era of inconvenient transportation, the influence of Fangfu's many products is only limited to the capital.

For example, this distant city of Gusu doesn't even have the most popular playing cards and Zhuxuanzhai in the capital.

You know, in several state capitals in Gyeonggi, Zhuxuanzhai's branches have already reached Sanli Road, and there is one.

For these soldiers, the life of guarding the city is boring, especially in Gusu City, where there is almost no turmoil.

Therefore, in just a few fights of Landlords, they became one with the three guards of the Fang Mansion, calling each other brothers.

"Okay, don't chat with you guys, brothers go back first, come back tomorrow!"

Liu Dong put away the cards, greeted several soldiers guarding the city, and turned to leave.

On the way, looking at the bustling street scene, the three people in Fangfu couldn't help sighing again.

"I've heard for a long time that Liangdao in the south of the Yangtze River is a land of fish and rice, richer than our capital, but I can't tell it during the day, but at night, it's really such a thing."

Liu Dong looked at all kinds of street vendors on the side of the road, shook his head, and said.

Someone next to him answered, "I don't know when the Zhuxuanzhai, Chunfenglou, and Jingshi Grand Theater of our Fangfu will be able to open in Gusu City."

"Don't say it, I really want to get drunk in Chunfenglou. The wine in Gusu City is too weak and doesn't have that taste."

While a few people were talking, they had already passed the most prosperous Fangshi, which was a fringe area without lanterns.

Located between the two urban areas, there will be lights if you go further, and it is only a few steps away from Tangfu.

However, at this time, several figures suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking the way.

Seeing this, Liu Dong immediately became alert.

He winked at the two people around him, then walked up and said, "Hey, brothers in front, make way for us to go back to the house."

There was silence and no one answered.

Instead, those figures slowly turned around.

The leader had a hideous scar on his face, like a knife wound, from the base of his ear to the corner of his mouth. Under this dark environment, he looked even more eerie.

Liu Dong and the others were also people who had seen big scenes, and they were not too flustered when they saw this scene.

Instead, he took out the dagger from his arms, and the three of them slowly gathered together.

"What, is something wrong?"

Liu Dong looked at the scarred face and said.

Scarface took a step forward, looked at Liu Dong, with a ferocious smile on his face, and said, "Something is going on, someone wants your life!"

At this time, Liu Dong and the others saw that these people were all carrying knives through the moonlight.

"This is Gusu City, aren't you afraid of the Yamen's arrest?"

Liu Dong also looked at the scarred face and said.

"Hurry up?"

When Scarface heard this, he seemed to have heard some funny joke, he chuckled twice, and then said: "Turn around and take a look, is there anyone around here?

Since there is no one, even if you are a police officer, how do you know who killed you? "

After hearing this explanation, the three of Liu Dong looked at each other, and they could all see something strange in each other's eyes.

"It's true..."

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll give you a chance to obediently get caught, maybe there's still a way out.

If you let the brothers do it, you will have no chance of surviving. "

"Didn't you just say you wanted to take our lives?"

Liu Dong and the others were speechless when they heard this.

Dao Scar's face was also slightly startled, and then, with an angry look on his face, he shouted behind him: "Come on, brothers, kill these bastards!"

When the guys behind heard this, they all picked up the knives in their hands, and rushed towards Liu Dong and the others.

When Liu Dong and the others saw this scene, they instantly became much more relaxed.

For these people, they have only one evaluation in their hearts-the rabble.

Under the moonlight, several cold lights flashed.

Then there was a fierce "clang--" sound of swords colliding.

And then... I heard a few muffled sounds.

Several lifeless corpses hit the ground heavily.
