"At this moment, unless there are more knights in the rivers and lakes to take action, I'm afraid he will die!" The old man's voice was extremely regretful.

It seems that he is really optimistic about this "Wang Shouren".

Su Xuan stopped holding the wine glass.

"This... this is to drive Lord Wang to death!" A plainly dressed poor scholar with a sad face said bitterly: "Above the court, traitors are gaining power..."

Before he could finish speaking, his friend beside him covered his mouth and pinned him down on the chair, unable to move.

It was as if the pause button had been pressed in the noisy restaurant just now. Everyone seemed to be deaf, unable to hear, dumb, and not speaking.

"Bangdang-"

The humble scholar pushed away the table and chair, furious.

"It's just a traitor who is a disaster for the country. You are a student of a dignified saint, but you are acting like a woman here. You can't speak with your lips, and you dare not speak out! I, Li Runsheng, Jinling, am ashamed to be with you!"

He shook off his friend's hand and left angrily.

Everyone was stunned, and soon, many students covered their faces and left.

The storyteller also sighed, wanting to leave in disappointment.

"Please stay for a while, old sir."

A clear voice stopped him.

It was Su Xuan.

The old man was not surprised either, he turned around and sat down with a smile, gently sniffing the aroma of wine in the air, and praised: "Good wine! I smelled it as soon as I entered this restaurant. There are people who offer thousands of taels, but they can't coax the shopkeeper to let go, today, the old man, I will also drink with Tanhualang!"

"You know me?" Su Xuan was not stingy either. He poured a glass for the old storyteller with a smile, and his tone was unhurried, like the rhythm of a stream: "That's right, the old man is so well-informed, how could he not?" know me?"

"Don't dare." The old man clasped his fists in shame, "It's just the ability to eat, it's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning."

The little girl followed beside her grandfather, looking at Su Xuan curiously.

Su Xuan looked at her and smiled slightly.

The white clothes are comfortable, elegant and gentle, the son is like jade, and he is like a grinder.

The little girl blushed all of a sudden, grabbed the hem of the grandfather's clothes, and hid behind the old man.

"Since the old man has this ability, why not come and tell me, where is Lord Wang now, and what is the reputation of the assassin sent by Liu Jin in the world?"

"It's not far, it's not far." The old man said with a smile: "He just left not long ago. Looking at the time, it is estimated that he will soon arrive at Changsha Mansion. If you hurry up, it will only take two or three days to catch up."

"The old man knows what I'm going to do?" Su Xuan filled the white-haired old man's glass again, probing with deep meaning.

"I know, I know." The old storyteller stroked his beard inscrutablely: "Not only do I know this, I also know that for you, Shen Lang specially postponed the time to go to sea and stayed in Li Yuan for three more years. moon……"

Did you know that some people die because of just one sentence?you know too much.

Of course Li Xunhuan didn't think so.

So Su Xuan just froze for a moment, and then said with great admiration: "The old man's wrists are as good as the sky... So your lecture is actually aimed at me, right?"

"Hehe." The old man was a little embarrassed, but he was mature, so he changed the subject very naturally: "Do you know the killer Liu Jin hired with a lot of money?"

"I would like to hear the details." Su Xuan smiled tolerantly, ignoring the unnaturalness just now.

"This killer is called Ghost Shadow."

"Then he must be very fast."

"Of course he's fast. Not only is he fast, but his knife is also fast." The old man tapped his pipe with a serious expression: "Since his debut, he has received 64 orders and killed 64 people. None of them escaped." his knife."

"These 64 people must not be ordinary people."

"It is true that they are not ordinary people. These 64 people include many martial arts masters, both black and white. They used their lives to forge the frightening killing reputation of ghosts."

"Then I have to speed up and find Mr. Wang, otherwise he may not escape death."

"Don't you suspect that I am fabricating a lie to deceive you?" The old man couldn't believe it: "You must know that leaving Beijing at this juncture is not a good choice for your career. Why don't you ask any more questions?"

"No, no need." Su Xuan smiled softly, his smile was like a breeze blowing across a tranquil lake, and the warm sun shining into the old window lattice, making people feel drunk.

"If you're lying to me, it means that Mr. Wang is not in danger, wouldn't that be great?" He shook the jug, regretfully finding that there was not much wine left: "But if what you said is true Well, if Mr. Wang is really in the slightest danger, wouldn't it be necessary for me to go this way?"

"You knew Lord Wang before?" the old man asked.

"I have nothing to do with him."

"Have you read his articles?"

"Never had luck."

"Then you agree with his psychology?"

"Why mind learning?"

"Then why are you willing to run thousands of miles just because an unknown person gave you a piece of news that you don't know whether it's true or not?" The old man refused to relax, aggressive, leaned over his whole body, and let out a puff of smoke.

"Isn't it reasonable to save people's lives?" Su Xuan asked suspiciously.

These were his sincere words, so the old man stared closely, and everything he could see was true.

"Okay!" The old man slammed the table, but didn't stir up any drink.

He saw the uncontrollable admiration and obsession on the half face of the little girl protruding from behind the old man.

"It is indeed the person chosen by Shen Daxia. Sure enough, he is born with chivalry and righteousness!" The old man sighed: "With young people like you in the world, the future will surely be stable for another hundred years!"

He had already seen that Li Xun Huan could not stay in the officialdom for long.

He suddenly pulled out the little girl who was hiding behind him, and said humorously: "Boy Li, look at my granddaughter, she has a spring heart, but is she worthy of you?"

The little girl covered her flushed cheeks with both hands, and said "wow", but then secretly peeped at Su Xuan through her fingers.

Is it really the treatment of the protagonist?

Su Xuan smiled wryly and shook his head: "Old man, why did you let me be this villain?"

He seemed to think of a beautiful woman, with soft lips and tender eyes: "I already have a fiancée, Shiyin and I are childhood sweethearts, we are in love with each other, and we have promised each other for life."

This tenderness is enough to make any woman feel her heart.

He looked at the little girl's tear-filled eyes very seriously, and said solemnly, "I'm sorry."

The little girl burst into tears and refused to speak, but just looked at him stubbornly.

Su Xuan was helpless, looked at the wrinkled old man, and said goodbye: "I should leave."

In this world, only a woman's true feelings can make him retreat easily.

"Old man, please also pay attention to the scholar who was so generous and outspoken just now. He has a pure heart, and I am afraid that his official career will be difficult."

"You are quite thoughtful." The old man said in a bad tone, displeased with the brat who made his granddaughter cry: "I will watch him. By the way, don't you really want to know who I am?"

"I just need to know that you are a kind person."

The old man rolled his eyes and patted the little girl's head: "Everyone is gone, it's useless to look any further."

Outside the restaurant, Su Xuan looked back and smiled.

"Of course I know who you are." Su Xuan stood tall and tall, and under the sun, he opened his folding fan to cover Shu Lang's eyebrows, elegantly: "No. [-] in the list of weapons in the future, old man Tianji."
