Crown Sword

Chapter 199

"This winter is really cold!"

The blizzard hit all the way from Tianshui County to Chang'an. Wearing a heavy cloak, Chao Chen stood under the lantern at the front door of the second-floor inn, rubbing his hands and exhaling.Gong Yangyue came out of the lobby with the jug in her hand, glanced at her head, threw the tether and the porcelain pot to Shen Yuan who was following behind, and then involuntarily grabbed Chao Chen's reddened hand and tucked it into her own. sleeve.

Chao Chen's icy fingertips probed in and touched the hot skin, and Gong Yangyue flinched unconsciously when he felt the cold.

Gong Yangyue looked down, his eyes were exquisite, Chao Chen hurriedly dodged, turned his face away, there was already an unconcealable smile on the corner of his mouth.Soon, Shen Yuan leaned forward and asked softly, "Where are you going?"

Both of them held back their smiles in front of the steps, and their faces were gloomy.

"Besides Qingboxuan, do you remember where you have been?"

"do not remember."

Shen Yan shook his head, his complexion was as bitter as coptis, he lowered his head and kept rubbing the hem of his clothes.Chao Chen sighed, but instead comforted her: "You point to one place with your intuition."

The troupe that sang Sanle Baixi came half a month ago, and they stopped in the east and west markets. Since the gossip mirror has not landed in Qingboxuan, it is not easy to find it in Chang'an, so we can only let Shen Yuan know the way. Touch that dead mouse.Shen Yan was obedient, and he really chose a place that he hadn't been to before. This time, it was a coincidence that he would go to the largest and most magnificent Qian's mansion in the village.

There was someone going on in front of Qian's mansion, Gong Yangyue took a closer look, he was not the man who stole money from the dead people on the edge of Bashui that day.

There are two or three onlookers nearby, talking in low voices, this person has been chasing and blocking him, and has been messing around for quite a few days, the Qian family did not get hit with a stick, which is quite a face.

Chao Chen cupped his hands and said bluntly, "Excuse me, brother, what conflict does this person have with the Qian family?"

He spoke quickly and hurriedly answered: "Do you know about the fire at Qingboxuan? I heard that his brother died in it, and he was arguing to bring his ashes back to his hometown. Let me tell you, Brother Baixia, that is a cash cow." , Heh, it’s not uncommon for a dead old woman to make up a nonsense reason to make trouble these days!”

Pedestrians are not used to seeing it, and after a couple of glances, they left quietly, leaving only Gong Yangyue and Chao Chen, seeing the man holding the pillar and chatting endlessly——

"He's really my friend. His surname is Lin. He came from the Lin Family Village. His name is Lin Chutong."

"He broke his leg when he was a child, and there is a hideous scar on his calf bone."

"He said that he would stay in Chang'an, and wait for me to join him when he develops."

he is……

Standing for a moment, the whole thing can be spelled out from the whole word.

About to be assassinated, Qian Yinzhou was secretly arrested in Chang'an in the name of "Fudo Zun". is not claimed.That Lin Yuanzhi ghost was also helping Qingboxuan that day, and he was ordered to deal with the aftermath of the accident. After changing hands with a few people, in order to save money, he was also arrested to clean up the mess.

When he saw it, he recognized a corpse beyond recognition, not to say it was his brother.If this word reached Qian Yinzhou's ears, it would certainly not be like this as a clue. The bad thing was that the Chang'an government's mansion was so big that he couldn't make a sound after several barriers were blocked.

In fact, the subordinates were also afraid of negligence, so they asked the kanyizhuang man to identify it together, but the kanzhuang man pointed to the corpse and said that the legs and feet were injured, but they were not made of broken bones.

One said that it was fine, but after a long time he was a scammer, so he hurriedly sent the two taels of money.

However, Lin Yuanzhi was a man with a blind eye, he didn't recognize money, and he was unreasonable. At that time, the misunderstanding made a big fuss. When the Qian family saw it, he dared to open his mouth like a lion, let alone give him a chance to meet the owner, which would add to the trouble .

"fool!"

The stubborn Gong Yangyue had seen too much, cursed, called Chao Chen and Shen Yuan, and was about to leave.At this time, Lin Yuanzhi, who was hanging on the pillar with his arms around him, opened his mouth——

"I, I still have proof!"

"At that time, I came out from the back kitchen of Qingboxuan with a plate, and saw him turn out from the back wall, dressed in black, holding a short spike, and went to the accompanying building. I wanted to call him, but I lost sight of him, and because of this I bumped into a distinguished guest, spilled soup, and was scolded. Yes! Yes! The guest officer can testify that many people saw it at the time..."

Short spines?

Among the assassins who assassinated Qian Yinzhou that day, one of them had a short stab weapon. In the chaos, others may not be clear, but Gong Yangyue, who turned around to rescue him, saw it clearly.

He quickly realized that even if this person was not with the killer, at least he had a lot to do with it.

Lin Yuanzhi saw that the servants of Qian's family no longer grabbed him by the limbs and threw them out, but turned to lock the door, jumped off the ground immediately, and pushed in while the door was closed, slapping him continuously: "Listen to me, I'll give you a Describe the appearance of that guest officer, the Qian family has a big business, you will definitely be able to find him if you come forward, and then you will know what I'm talking about..."

"boom--"

The closed door almost caught a red nose.

Lin Yuanzhi slumped on the floor dejectedly, without energy: "Didn't you say when you were a child that you would share blessings and suffer together? After suffering so much, but you haven't enjoyed blessings yet, why are you confused and confused? dead..."

"He's not dead."

Hearing the sound, Lin Yuanzhi raised his head suddenly, and saw a red-clothed swordsman and a green-clothed scholar looking at each other with their swords in their arms.

Gong Yangyue added: "I saw your friend that day in the fire scene." Then, he gave a general description of the assassin's figure.

Lin Yuanzhi looked at the person in front of him: "Aren't you..."

Gong Yangyue didn't have the patience to explain in detail, and interrupted him hastily: "Just say, do you want to see him again?"

Of course Lin Yuanzhi thought, he was stunned for a moment, and nodded immediately.Gong Yangyue was a little surprised to see him so straightforward, and kept thinking: So it really wasn't for money.

One more piece of trouble entered the game, the situation changed drastically, and Gongyang Yuexin made a plan——

Inviting Qian Yinzhou to jointly set up a scheme to capture the assassin, the exchange and the lottery is that when Shuangli recognizes his ancestors and returns to his clan, she will inherit all the property of that house, and no matter what she does in the future, Qian will not interfere too much.After getting the reply, Gongyangyue asked Lin Yuanzhi to show his face frequently in Dongshi, and borrowed money from Qian's family to reveal to Qian Yinzhou the clue that "the man is in the western suburbs". Together, Gongyang and Yue went to the western suburbs to search.

At that time, there will be only a few guards around Qian Yinzhou.

It didn't take Lin Yuanzhi to make trouble like a bewilderment in a day or two. The Qian family figured it out one day and believed his words.

As for the assassin...

Gong Yangyue bet that the man named Lin Chutong didn't kill people and wiped out the people that night in Qingboxuan, but just got rid of Lin Yuanzhi's little tail, which shows that he still misses the friendship from the past.People are trapped in love, and this love is for themselves, more or less will give birth to touch, and they will not doubt the design of old acquaintances.

After the elite of the Qian family left, Chao Chen pretended to be a fishmonger, boasted to Haikou that he had 3000-year-old red carp, and let the news out.After the rumors spread, it was time for Qian Yinzhou to cooperate. For this reason, the two made a bet and arranged to inspect the goods in person in a warehouse in Dongshi.

On the way to inspect the goods, Qian Yinzhou was "accidentally" attracted by the precious stones carried by a walker in the desert, jumped out of the bullock cart, and chased after them to see them. After chasing them, he lost the order and chased them into an alley.

Those who collect news are always the most sensitive to news. In this interlocking chain, it is all the Qian family who are tossing around. Only the last traveler is the person arranged by the "mustard dust network".

Lin Chutong appeared from the entrance of the alley, without much hesitation, he raised his stab and stabbed towards the back of the heart.

A sword flew over and stabbed him away.Lin Chutong saw that Gongyangyue, who was supposed to be transferred to the western suburbs under the entrustment of the Qian family, suddenly jumped out. The Qian family is not related, but someone wants to save his life through Qianqiu Palace?"

Gong Yangyue was short of an excuse, so he made it up first, which saved convenience, so he followed the words: "That's right, today is your day of death."

Lin Chutong shook his head, stopped talking, waited until he was fully charged, and pierced his ribs like a leopard pounced on a rabbit.

"Out of control."

Gong Yangyue sneered, holding the sheath in her hand, and pressed down his arm on the spot, then the sword came out, pierced the two-edged hollow thorn, twisted her wrist, trying to seize his weapon.

Chutong let out a surprise, and then let go.

The short jab was thrown into the air, he glanced at it coldly, kicked repeatedly with his legs, and attacked the lower part of Gong Yangyue, and then borrowed a Dengyun to jump up to catch the short jab.

At this time, the Gongyang Yuefei sword had arrived, the blade was flat and short, he turned around to resist but couldn't bear the strength, the short thorn came out again.

"Say, who told you to come!"

Gongyangyue didn't talk nonsense, she stabbed repeatedly with her sword, the speed was so fast that Chutong, who was unarmed, could not dodge, she retreated to the corner with a wry smile, looked up, and wanted to fly away, but was blocked by the sword energy first. way out.

"Wait a minute!"

Seeing the swordsman in red raising his hand to take his life, Qian Yinzhou, who was hiding behind, called out to stop, walked up to the defeated assassin himself, and said to the defeated assassin: "Successful and defeated, you didn't lose to the Chang'an government, you lost Giving it to the Qian family is just losing to the ancient truth, even if the Qian family helps out that day, the result will not be much better."

Chutong stiffened his neck, rather stubbornly: "If you want to kill, then kill!"

Qian Yinzhou is neither warlike nor a bloodthirsty person, but after working hard in the business field for so many years, he knows the rules and methods he should know, and he slowly lowered his hands, signaling that no one should be kept—let the tiger go back to the mountain There will never be a peaceful day, and if you want to stop it, you have to cut the grass and roots.

"Don't kill him—"

Qian Yinzhou turned his back and didn't look at him, raised his head and looked up to meet Lin Yuanzhi's gaze who was coming from the alley. Avoiding Chao Chen and sneaking over.He doesn't know martial arts, but he has brute force all over his body. Rescuing people in front of experienced swordsmen is tantamount to nonsense.

At the critical moment, Lin Yuanzhi didn't have time to think about it, so he tried his best to pull out and throw everything away, only to hear a crisp "ding dong", and something hit the tip of the sword without being broken and was bounced back. That long arc will well block the view. .

A moment is enough for Chutong to get out of trouble.

While there was no reaction, the assassin's neck was twisted at a strange angle, and then he walked out from under the sword that was pressing his throat, and climbed back up the wall, like a boneless feather, walking lightly with the wind.

What hit it was a small but long pure gold ring, even Gong Yangyue was a little surprised.

"Chao Chen!"

The red-clothed swordsman became furious. He didn't even look at Lin Yuanzhi who was crouching under the wall, but stretched out his hand, motioned to Chao Chen who was chasing him, and took a shortcut to intercept him.

Lin Yuanzhi, who is so stubborn and honest, started cheating and playing tricks, but Chao Chen, who had a solid eye, didn't see it. Fortunately, he found it in time, and followed him. After leaving, Shen Yuan was left alone in the inn, and he felt uncomfortable. , simply refused to listen to the explanation, and ran out the door.

She has slow legs and is the last one to come. Not to mention Chao Chen, she can't even see Gong Yangyue's back, so she can only stare at the people in the alley: "Where did they go?"

Lin Yuanzhi was reminded by her words, he also reacted, turned his head and ran away without saying anything.

Seeing this, Shen Yuan felt something strange, and picked up the skirt to copy it from the side, but unfortunately, something stuck in his lower leg, and he fell face-to-face, hitting his head.Crying in pain, Qian Yinzhou frowned, and stepped forward to check, while Lin Yuanzhi, who ran out, turned his head in panic, his eyebrows furrowed, as if he was torn between helping or not.

"What?"

Shen Yuan stretched out his hand and took out the "culprit" from under the embroidered shoe. At first, his hand felt cold and hard, and he thought it was a stone, but when he took a closer look at the golden light, it was the gilt ring that Lin Yuanzhi threw out just now.As if being struck by five thunders, Shen Yan held the golden ring and stood staggeringly. In an instant, the pain disappeared.

Qian Yinzhou was puzzled and said: "This girl..."

Shen Yan turned around, with tears in his eyes, he blurted out unconsciously: "...Grandpa." With this shout, Qian Yinzhou's stern face couldn't help twitching, and he argued, "You girl is so unreasonable. In the prime of life!"

His mind was chaotic, people or scenes or things passed by like a revolving lantern, Shen Yuan couldn't find the extra energy to deal with it, so he opened his mouth but didn't return it.After she staggered for two steps, her consciousness was clear, she rubbed her bruised forehead and rushed forward, twisting Lin Yuanzhi's arm and shouting, "Where is Grandpa? Where is Grandpa? The person who gave you this gilt ring Where did you go..."

"When we parted, he said he would go to the south of Chang'an..."

Before anyone could finish speaking, Shen Yuan turned around and ran away, muttering the word "Chengnan" incessantly. When he ran out of Guanhou Street and turned the corner from Zhangtai Road to the south, his memory was completely connected like a string of beads— —

She didn't memorize all the names on the booklet, and the most important thing was not a person's name, but a place, which was circled and crossed out by the ink pen.

There is Junshan Mountain, the old site of Baling City Tower, and pearl sturgeon.

She spit out those two words lightly.

"Dongting."
