"Ahem——!" Li Mingsi lay on his back on the ground, covering his chest with his hands, coughing violently with pain on his face.More than blood slid across his lips, along his fair neck, soaking his collar red.

"Li Mingsi, you really fell into the broken tendon of that dog in Dongchang." Qianhu strolled up to Li Mingsi, with a slightly sinister smile on his lips: "It's a good deal for me."

Hearing this, Li Mingsi frowned and looked at Qianhu in front of him, and said with a smile: "Aren't you the subordinate of that dog? Could it be that you want to betray that dog?"

Qianhu suddenly stepped on Li Mingsi's chest, and rubbed the back of Li Mingsi's hand with his soap boots, "I don't pay attention to that dog in Dongchang, I... I'm from Xichang. "

Li Mingsi snorted, frowned and looked at Qianhu coldly, but he didn't show any softness on his mouth: "You Xichang is also very good, and I don't know when you fell in love with me?"

Qianhu bent down and tore off the jade pendant from Li Mingsi's waist, holding it in his hand, and said with a smile, "It's not you, but this jade pendant. Now that you have the jade pendant, you can rest in peace!"

"Really? I'm afraid I will disappoint Lord Qianhu." While speaking, Li Mingsi stuck the silver needle hidden in his sleeve into Qianhu's calf.

Qianhu retracted his leg in pain, pulled out the silver needle that Li Mingsi had stuck into his calf, and saw that the silver needle gradually turned black.

"What poison did you poison me?" Qianhu threw away the silver needle in his hand, extremely angry, pulled Li Mingsi's lapel with one hand, and lifted him up.

"How could it be poison?" Li Mingsi drew out the sword from his sleeve, flipped his wrist and slashed at Qianhu's neck.Qianhu looked horrified, and hurriedly let go of Li Mingsi, barely avoiding the attacking sleeve.

Li Mingsi's center of gravity was unstable, and at the moment when the Hidden Sword was slashed, he fell heavily to the ground, and said, "It's such a pity to have such a good opportunity."

"I think you don't want to live anymore!" Qianhu pressed the knife with his left hand, drew the knife out of its sheath with his right, and pointed at Li Mingsi on the ground.

"Why don't you want to live? I haven't watched dogs eat dogs in the East and West factories. If I die young, it will be a pity for such a handsome and handsome talent like me." Li Mingsi took it calmly and replied with a smile.

"When death is imminent, how dare you speak hard!" After saying that, Qianhu swung his sword down!Li Mingsi was not afraid at all, and lightly closed his eyes, as if sitting and waiting to die.

At this moment, there was a sound of clanging metal collisions, and the Xiuchun knife that came halfway forced back the long knife that Qianhu had hacked.

Li Mingsi slowly opened his eyes, and saw Ling Duanyi standing in front of him in a scarlet woven golden flying fish suit.

Ling Duanyi stood upright, looked at Qianhu with slightly frowned eyebrows, and said coldly, "What are you doing?"

Seeing that it was Ling Duanyi, the thousand households turned around and stepped lightly on the edge of the wall, leaping away.

Seeing the man running away, Ling Duanyi sheathed the knife, then turned around and looked at Li Mingsi who was sitting on the ground.

"It's really early, it's better to come by coincidence~" Li Mingsi propped up the wall with one hand, stood up staggeringly, and looked at Ling Duanyi.

"Bring it." Ling Duanyi stretched out his palm and spread it in front of Li Mingsi.

"What?" Li Mingsi asked inexplicably.

Ling Duanyi said coldly: "Nine-pattern Jade Phoenix Pendant, bring it."

"The jade pendant is not on me, and even if I stole the jade pendant, it would have been snatched by that fellow just now." Li Mingsi explained.

"Are you lying to me?" Ling Duanyi looked at Li Mingsi with sharp eyes.

"I didn't lie..." Before Li Mingsi finished speaking, his back hit the wall hard, and his back couldn't help but hurt.

Before Li Mingsi could react, Ling Duanyi suddenly reached out to clamp his throat, his eyes were cold and sharp like a glacier that would not melt for a thousand years, and he said coldly, "I'll give you another chance."

"You... didn't come to save me?" Li Mingsi had difficulty breathing, his face was as white as paper, he took a few breaths, and said slowly.

"No." Ling Duanyi replied: "I came here to track down the nine-pattern jadeite phoenix pendant. I heard from you yesterday that the emperor ordered me to arrest the thief who stole this jade pendant."

"Ahem——!" Li Mingsi coughed fiercely, and actually coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood.Seeing this, Ling Duanyi hurriedly removed the hand that was holding Li Mingsi's throat.

"What's wrong with you?" Ling Duanyi asked suspiciously.

Li Mingsi gave Ling Duanyi a white look: "Didn't I get hurt by that guy? After a long time, you didn't see it just now!"

"..." Ling Duanyi originally thought that Li Mingsi was trying to capture him, and wanted to wait for that servant to come forward and capture him.He was going to ignore it, but he suddenly saw that the guy had a piece of dark jade, so he rushed forward involuntarily.

Because he was a step late, he naturally didn't see Li Mingsi knocked to the ground by him.Just now, he was also afraid that Li Mingsi would slip away, so he deliberately restrained Li Mingsi.

Seeing Ling Duanyi stunned on the spot, Li Mingsi didn't say much, took out a brocade handkerchief from his sleeve, and wiped away the blood stains from the corner of his mouth.

"Why did you argue with that person?" Ling Duanyi asked.

"Why are you so gossip?" Li Mingsi put away the brocade handkerchief, raised his eyebrows slightly, "Didn't you come to ask about the nine-pattern emerald phoenix?"

"..." Hearing this, Ling Duanyi nodded: "That's right."

"The nine-pattern emerald phoenix pendant that I sent someone to sneak into the palace to steal was fake, so I don't have it at all." Li Mingsi shrugged.

Ling Duanyi didn't answer, but just took out the pill from his waist and handed it to Li Mingsi: "Take it, it will be good for the recovery of the injury."

"Hey, you must have poisoned it, right?" Li Mingsi scrutinized Ling Duanyi's expression, and teased.

"Ling behaves upright and sits upright, and never cheats."

"Thank you then." Li Mingsi was not polite, took the medicine and swallowed it.Thinking about it, Ling Duanyi didn't intend to harm him, otherwise, with his current appearance, it wouldn't be surprising for anyone to arrest him.

"Do you know that person just now?" Ling Duanyi asked.

"That's someone from Xichang. I don't know when he replaced my younger brother and lurked beside me. It should also be the person who went to steal the nine-pattern jadeite phoenix that night.

I guess it was because Xichang wanted to get rid of you, so he deliberately made this arrangement, throwing the Gouyu I asked him to keep in the palace, so that he could frame you.

As for Dongchang, I can't see the situation there clearly, and I don't know what they want to do.If what the people from Xichang said is true, then the nine-pattern emerald phoenix pendant in the palace is probably fake.

Conversely, if the stolen nine-pattern emerald phoenix pendant is real, it is very likely that someone from Xichang took it away and planted it on me, and I will send you to investigate the case later.

If you answer that this incident has nothing to do with me, then the Gouyu in the palace and your Gouyu theft will definitely be caught by those dogs as a gimmick for fuss. "

"..." Ling Duanyi didn't think about it that much, he just carried out the task according to the emperor's will.

"I can't change this nine-pattern jadeite phoenix." Li Mingsi sighed: "It's very difficult to track down now, and it's hard for you to accept this task. It's better to tie me up, it's still okay." You are favored."

"When did you owe me a favor?"

"If you hadn't appeared just now, I'm afraid I would have died under the knife. Anyway, I'm going to die anyway, so it's better to help you eliminate disasters and solve problems." Li Mingsi replied with a smile.

"..." Li Mingsi's words made him a little at a loss.Although Li Mingsi was a thief, he didn't actually steal anything.If there is one, it is his own Gouyu, but why does Li Mingsi use his own Gouyu?

Could it be a coincidence...

"Do you know what that ink-colored Gouyu is?" Ling Duanyi was puzzled and couldn't help asking.

"Ink-colored jade?" Li Mingsi glanced at Ling Duanyi suspiciously: "Why do you ask this?"

"……nothing."

"I do have a piece of black jade, but it was snatched by that guy just now." Li Mingsi leaned his back against the wall, raised his head and said slowly.

"How does that jade look?" Hearing this, Ling Duanyi continued to ask.

"I bought that on the street, and it's not worth much." Li Mingsi glanced at Ling Duanyi from the end of his eyes: "Are you very interested in Moyu?"

"Just ask." Ling Duanyi finished speaking, turned around and left.

"Hey! Where are you going?" Seeing Ling Duanyi turn around and leave, Li Mingsi shouted towards Ling Duanyi's back.

Ling Duanyi paused, turned to look at Li Mingsi behind him: "Patrol."

"Aren't you the commander?" Li Mingsi asked again.

"It has nothing to do with you." After saying that, Ling Duanyi walked away, and no matter how Li Mingsi called him, he ignored it.

Seeing Ling Duanyi leave, Li Mingsi heaved a sigh of relief. If Ling Duanyi hadn't helped him just now, he would have died. Fortunately, he was lucky.

However, recalling the conversation between the two just now, Li Mingsi knew well that Ling Duanyi's statement that the patrol was false, and it was probably true that he was arrested and brought to justice.However, he didn't understand why Ling Duanyi suddenly mentioned Mo Yu...

Li Mingsi didn't think much about it, anyway, Ling Duanyi's matter has nothing to do with him, the most important thing now is to find a place to recuperate.

The sun is thinning, and the clouds in the sky are dyed orange red.

Li Mingsi sat idle in the hexagonal white jade pavilion, holding a jug of wine in his hand, tilted his head up to pour the wine, gulped down a few sips, overflowed from the corner of his mouth, slipped down his neck, and quietly dripped into the lapel of his clothes.

"Ahem——!" Li Mingsi choked on the spirits, bent over and coughed suddenly, he put the wine on the stone table, and wiped the wine stains from the corners of his mouth with his sleeve.

It was almost dusk, but there was still no one on the winding stone path, Li Mingsi frowned displeased, and thought: Why is this person so slow?

"Ouch... It's really killing me!" At this moment, a human voice suddenly came from beside him.

Li Mingsi immediately swung his palm and slapped him backwards, the man flipped his wrist, making a gesture to hit Li Mingsi.After a few breaths, he stepped back half a step, shifted his center of gravity back, and barely brushed against Li Mingsi's palm.

"I said, can you choose a better place for you? It's either a mountain or a cliff. My old bones are not as capable as a young man like you!" The person who spoke was the shopkeeper of Huamanlou.

"Come on, you are only one year older than me." Li Mingsi turned his head to look at the shopkeeper: "You don't know, looking at your appearance during the day, I really want to beat you up."

"I didn't do anything wrong, why did you beat me up?" The shopkeeper took off the human.skin.mask from his face, revealing his facial features, elegant and extraordinary.

"Then why did you give the Gouyu to that kid?" Li Mingsi got up and walked to the shopkeeper: "Are you doing something wrong?"

"Don't worry, it's just a fake." The shopkeeper replied with a smile: "I've known something wrong with Xiaoxuan for a long time, but today I suddenly asked me to inquire about your whereabouts, and said that I would hand over Moyu to you. Fortunately, my brain Smart, immediately gave him a fake piece."

Li Mingsi shrugged and sighed: "I thought it was real, so I ran after it. In the end, I didn't get that piece of jade, and I donated my real jade."

"Oh, that piece of jade is also fake."

"...Huh?" Li Mingsi raised his eyebrows and glanced at the shopkeeper: "What do you mean by that?"

"It's not because it's unsafe for you to hang it casually on your waist, so I did it... Hey! If you have something to say, don't use a throwing knife!"

………………

The jade toad rises in the east, and it is far away in the forest.

"Then Ling Duanyi is the person you are looking for, right?" the shopkeeper looked at Li Mingsi and said.

"Yes." Li Mingsi took a sip of his wine and replied.

"Then have you considered it?" The shopkeeper asked Li Mingsi, propping his chin with one hand.

"What's there to think about, anyway, the old man's business has nothing to do with me." Li Mingsi looked up at the moon and said calmly.

The shopkeeper sighed: "Brother, do you still care about Master?"

"..."

"No matter how you say it, Master brought you up with the grace of nurturing you. Although Master is strict with you, it is for your own good, isn't it?"

"Brother, there are some things that are not as simple as you think." Li Mingsi closed his eyes lightly, and said lightly.

Regarding the rumors of the yin-yang mandarin duck jade, there is also the following: the emperor could not stabilize the hearts of the people because he only got half of the jade, and it was a black jade jade engraved with a phoenix.

Soon, the emperor became seriously ill and died. The queen mother assisted the young prince to succeed to the throne and listened to the government behind the curtain.Rumors spread all over the place immediately, saying that "the rooster wakes up in the morning, but the only way to stay home" was that the Queen Mother ordered people to stop the spread of the rumors, but there was nothing she could do.

Until the end, the country was ruined and the family was destroyed.

After Lin Kingdom was captured by neighboring countries, the Lin family also fled everywhere, but they were despised by many people. Later, the Lin family changed their surname to Li.

It means that there are trees in the forest, and there are branches in the trees.

His moyu was also handed down as a family heirloom of the Lin family, and finally fell into the hands of Li Mingsi.

"...Yes." As Li Mingsi's senior brother, he actually doesn't know much about Li Mingsi, he just practiced together on a daily basis.

"Senior brother, I didn't invite you here today to chat." Li Mingsi looked sideways at the shopkeeper and said with a smile, "I just want to ask senior brother to do me a favor."

"Help? What's the matter?" He didn't think that Li Mingsi still needed his help. No matter in martial arts or literary talent, Li Mingsi was slightly better than him.

"I want to kill Ling Duanyi, so I ask my senior brother for help." Li Mingsi said, "Yesterday I sneaked into the palace and got into a fight with that Wang Hai dog's broken tendon, and today I fought with that Xichang running dog pretending to be Xiaoxuan." , almost ruined his life, it is not easy to survive until now."

"What! Are you injured?" After hearing these words, the shopkeeper looked worried, and hurriedly pulled Li Mingsi's wrist to feel his pulse.

Li Mingsi did not withdraw his hand, and let his senior brother take his pulse.After all, it's not like Ling Duanyi, an outsider with a little feud in it.

"It's strange, your pulse is stable, it doesn't seem like you have some kind of injury." After feeling the pulse for a long time, the shopkeeper said doubtfully.

Li Mingsi withdrew his hand, straightened his sleeves, and said with a smile: "Although the pulse condition is fine, I'm afraid I won't be able to use this internal force for a while, and at least I need to cultivate it for seven or eight days."

"Hmm." The shopkeeper nodded, "Then what do you need me to do?"

"It's nothing troublesome." Li Mingsi got up, leaned into the shopkeeper's ear, and whispered something.
