Crown Sword

The two yards that Wei Zhanmei bought were in the east of the city, and they happened to live on the same street as the grandma. Although one was at the head and the other was at the end, the parents were short-tempered, and the speed of gossip could not be underestimated. Within half a day, someone came, Tall, short, fat and thin, with a voice and a smile, everyone in the street knows it.

Whoever gets married into a new house will make some furniture such as beds, tables, tables, and the like, and the rich like to get some tenant tools for the tenants in the village. Wei Zhanmei does not aim to make a lot of money, and he gives some favors on weekdays. Have a good relationship with people left and right.As soon as they heard that he was a friend of Fangzhu Wei, and he was born beautiful and handsome, no matter men, women, old or young, they all rushed to see her beauty.

The woman who led the way just now was shouting hysterically on the road: "You are so handsome, your daughter hasn't given up yet, hurry up!"

At that time, Gong Yangyue was standing outside the shop, asking an old servant surnamed Shi about the ghost sword. He didn't realize that after several chaos in central Sichuan, more than half of the middle-aged men were killed and injured. When they realized something was wrong, a group of people had already squeezed in.

"My lord, where is the family? How many people are in the family? Is there Susukita?"

"Have you made a kiss, do you belong?"

Cui Tanfeng put down the white gauze on the curtain to cover her face, and hurriedly hid behind the counter with her clogs on.However, he, a flirtatious young man, lost his power here and became unattended, while Qiao Min and Gong Yangyue, two crowned swordsmen, were surrounded by crowds.It's no wonder that in recent years, there has been peace in the middle of Sichuan, and most of the disciples of Jiangu have experienced going down the mountain, and they are still good seedlings. Over time, the demeanor of those who wear swords, crown swords, and use swords are favored by the nearby mountain people.

Gong Yangyue was stunned in place, with blank eyes and a sneer in his mouth.

Is this the so-called great gift?

In the past in Sword Valley, Gongyangyue and Wei Zhanmei didn't know each other, and it was common to play tricks on each other.But after all, today is not what it used to be, and this joke was made at the wrong time——

He has no shortage of girls, nor is he short of favors.

In an instant, the smile in front of her eyes merged with the face she once hated, and Gong Yangyue's breath floated, and she drew her sword angrily: "Get out of here!"

The hall was immediately silent.

Yes, when he was young, he really longed to be accepted by others. The greatest wish in his life was to clear the lintel of Xuexue's family. What he wanted most was for the people of Mianzhu to let go of their prejudices, resolve misunderstandings, and get close to him.As a friend, Wei Zhanmei kept his heart in mind and helped him achieve his wish, but this method was superficial, although it could deceive people, it was ultimately a self-deception.

At this moment, Chao Chen squeezed in desperately, seeing that Qiao Min could no longer stand on the beam, Gong Yangyue was already on the verge of going crazy, and hurriedly shouted: "He has good intentions!"

In my memory, someone vaguely said the same thing.

Gongyang Yuehong looked back, but it was not the person he saw. At that moment, disappointment flooded him, and he gradually lost the strength to draw his sword, thinking sadly: Six years have passed, it is really not worth getting angry. Those kept in the dark continued to reciprocate him, not to relieve their anger.

So, he didn't intend to explain, and decided to sit back and enjoy this kindness, and when he found out the truth about Ghost Sword, he would spread the word so that everyone in the city would know that it was Gong Yangyue who saved them, the one who "betrayed Zhang Yu" "Gangyangchi's grandson, he was the most hated demon they ever hated!

This is his revenge!

Evil comes from the guts, and there is a cruel smile on the corner of Gongyangyue's mouth.

However, right now, there are too many people who are holding Geng Tie to ask relatives to step on the threshold, and the old servant Shi who was helping the boss just now has been pushed out of the door, almost knocked on the steps.This enthusiasm seriously interfered with future plans and had to be stopped in time, so he glanced at the crowd and called Shuang Li repeatedly, trying to use her as an excuse.

"Everyone, I appreciate your kindness, but I have already—"

Never would I have thought that there was a commotion in front of the steps, and Shuang Li wrapped his hood and didn't hear it. Instead of going upstream, he was pushed out, but Chao Chen happened to squeeze over at this moment, and he bumped past with help from someone. As soon as he grabbed Gong Yangyue's hand, he almost threw him down on the spot.

"...My heart belongs to me."

Gong Yangyue didn't have time to stop it, and shriveled out the remaining four words, lowering his head and staring at the person holding his hands.

I don't know which girl in the crowd shouted first: "Oh, it turned out to be a broken sleeve!"Chao Chen froze in embarrassment, staring at Gong Yangyue with big eyes: "It has nothing to do with me...it has nothing to do with me."

"It doesn't matter?"

Gong Yangyue stared down at his hand, and said amusedly, "How long are you going to hold it?" Then, he spread his arms, and jokingly said, "Would you like to give you a hug?"

Is this guy saying something out of anger?

Chao Chen hurriedly jumped away, as if afraid of contracting a disease: "What nonsense, am I that kind of person?"

Seeing him take a half-step back, Gong Yangyue felt a stab in his heart, he couldn't tell what it was like, he just felt so bored, he didn't even have the mind to make jokes, so he called Old Servant Shang Shi with a straight face, and went to the backyard to see explain.

----

According to the old servant, the rumor started more than a month ago. A woodcutter died in the mountains with only one sword wound and no signs of beast bites. He was buried on the mountain after the first seven days. His wife led the child to worship After the sacrifice, he came back a little crazy, saying that he saw a sword flying over his head without flying.

At first, the people in the county didn't take it seriously, they only said that the woman was suffering from anxiety, but gradually, more and more deceitful things happened, and they became more and more serious, and there were different opinions for a while.

More than a month ago, they were still seeking medicine in southern Yunnan, and when the rumors spread, the sacred relics of the Meng tribe had just been stolen.

At first glance there is no connection, but after careful consideration, one can find that whether it is the intercepted killer of Qianqiu Palace, or Li Zhouyang who is investigating the old case, whether it is the Taoist leader Xuanzhi who died suddenly, or the ghost The Mianzhu anecdotes about killing people with swords are all related to Shuzhong, and even point to Gongyang's family.

If it is man-made, what is their purpose?

Old servant Shi interrupted his train of thought: "Young Master Gongyang, if you need anything else, feel free to bring it up. My master will explain when he leaves. Your business is our business."

"Are you from Mianzhu?" Gong Yangyue took a look.

The hunchbacked old servant nodded and said yes, guessing his troubles in his heart, and then explained: "When Senior Gongyang opened the city, I was in Mianzhu City, and the news came without warning. General Yu died on the tower, and all the soldiers under his command were captured. Later, like other people in the city, I was plundered to Qin and entered into the household registration of Qin State. Other than that, there was no harm."

He paused, gasping for breath like an old cow, and continued slowly: "To be honest, compared with the 2 people killed in Chengdu and the Jin reinforcements wiped out in Fuxi, it is more important to save their lives." The result is much better. However, I am only a small person, and it is difficult to sum up the important issues of my family and country."

Gongyangyue stood facing the wind, and sighed softly: "Then do you hate it?"

"Hate? Do you want to hear the truth?" Old servant Shi laughed, with some sarcasm in his words, "The truth is that unless it is the revenge of killing relatives, it is difficult to feel the pain. It is often not because of hatred , but to vent anger and dissatisfaction out of fear and fear, young master, don’t worry, even if I don’t trust you, old servant, I will still trust my master’s vision.”

"six years ago……"

The old servant said tremblingly: "My boss doesn't allow us to talk about what happened six years ago."

Gongyangyue's heart warmed, and she finally felt relieved: "The old woman who led me today, her eldest son died at that time. I feel regretful, but I don't regret it. If I do it all over again, I still can't escape that choice." .May I trouble you with one thing? Prepare some joss paper money for me."

The old servant nodded in response, walked two steps, turned his head and said in a low voice: "My condolences."

"It's not the tragedy itself that's sad, but knowing the tragedy but being unable to stop it," Gong Yangyue sighed quietly, and walked away, "It took me a long time to realize that no matter what, Xia Houzhen will die."

Zhou Bihai followed to the east of the city, and was shocked when he saw the crowded scene in front of the shop. After finally waiting for the crowd to disperse, he was hesitating to ask for help when he saw Shuang Li and others moving the board and closing it along the crack of the door. The store is closed.He raised his hand to knock, but he couldn't hold back his face when he thought of all the things in the past.

After struggling for a while, he managed to pluck up the courage to chase after him, but just two steps away, a pair of hands covered his mouth from behind, dragging him into a side alley.

"it's me."

Zhou Bihai turned his head and found Fang Jing and Ji Ci standing behind them. Both of them were ashamed and embarrassed. He hurriedly asked about what he had obtained last night.

Ji Ci wanted to speak several times, but Fang Jing's gaze stopped her.

Fang Jing only picked up a few terrible things to say, and then said: "Xuanzhi Daoist is dead, the 'ghost sword' incident is not rumored, you should find a way to send a message, and implore Jiangu to send someone to deal with it as soon as possible, as for the county magistrate , Ji Ci, I have to trouble you to make a trip."

"I'll send a letter to Mr. Pei immediately." Zhou Bihai responded immediately after hearing this.

However, Fang Jing suddenly grabbed him: "Don't tell Mr. Pei, you try to contact Mr. Liang, remember, only tell him one person."

Yu Lingzi, the most prestigious among the seven elders, is old and rarely asks questions. The third child, Chen Wu, and the fourth child, Xiahou Jin, don't care about common affairs.Although this Elder Pei is strict and old-fashioned, in terms of ability, he has never been bad. Zhou Bihai suddenly felt puzzled: "Why? Isn't Taoist Xuanzhi a close friend of Elder Pei? Oh, oh, senior sister, I understand what you mean, are you I'm afraid Mr. Pei will be too sad..."

"You can understand it this way." Fang Jing stared at the dirty shoe upper, her eyes dodged, her words were vague.

Zhou Bihai nodded, and asked again: "What about Senior Gu Xue?"

Fang Jing just shook her head and said nothing.

Seeing that her complexion was not good, Zhou Bihai didn't continue to ask, although she was a little surprised. He thought about it for a while, and made up the reason: Gu Xue and Gong Yangchi are the same as seven elders and they are friends who have forgotten their years. , when they went to Kyushu together to resist the barbarian cavalry, and helped to say a lot of good things about Mianzhu, but Fang Jing, as the grandson of Gu Xue, had a deep quarrel with Gong Yangyue. If they quarreled face to face, both sides would lose face , is always difficult.

Thinking of this, he didn't doubt him, so he went to ask for a book.

After they left, Ji Ci said, "Senior Sister, why didn't you tell Senior Brother Zhou what we found in the mountains?"

That day, Fang Jing jumped down the cliff to follow her, and didn't look back for a long time. When Ji Ci searched in the morning, she found that she was holding a cloth bag in a daze, which contained betel nuts and a small amount of fuliu leaves.

In Sword Valley, only Pei Sai has the habit of chewing this food, and he never leaves it with him.

When Taoist Xuan Zhi came back to Sword Valley, he would always compete with others. The disciples of his sect knew what their skills were, and Fang Jing might not be clear about what Chao Chen could guess.As a leader of the new generation, she has a lot of insight, and she also understands that if the death scene is not in the cave, it is an acquaintance who committed the crime.

Looking at it horizontally and vertically, Pei Sai is extremely suspicious, but what reason does he have to kill Xuanzhi?

"Without solid evidence, who do you suspect?" Fang Jing couldn't figure it out, so she just said it would be better to be cautious.Seeing that Ji Ci was worried again, he hesitated to speak, and she tried to comfort her, "Cheer up and act like a man! You don't have to think too much, a bag of betel nuts, you won't be able to set someone up, I see that ram moon……"

At this time, two girls from Mianzhu happened to pass by the alley, talking about the anecdote just now——

"That swordsman with the crown and two swords actually likes men, what a shame."

"Who said no."

Fang Jing's face darkened, and she almost turned into a ghost when she was so black, she stretched out her finger and pointed, and said fiercely to Ji Ci, "I tell you, don't learn from that shameless guy!"
