Sword God is hard to catch

Chapter 22 Gossip Caused by Debt

Twilight, setting sun.

A person walked on the paved road outside the capital.

A white veiled hat, a white Japanese-style robe, a pair of ordinary wooden clogs, revealing slender white toes, and a thin and curved Japanese sword at her waist. The sunset shone on her body, and the golden bell shone with luster.

She didn't seem to be walking fast, neither fast nor slow, each step seemed to be the same size, but she seemed to be approaching in the blink of an eye, and she reached the city gate earlier than those galloping horses.

There are a lot of people in the capital, coming and going, many of them are new faces.Some are looking for fame, some are looking for money, some are looking for the sword of the peak duel, and maybe even some people just want to see the demeanor of "one sword comes to the west, and the sky flies away".But more people are doing it for profit.

She wanted to come, but knew she shouldn't.When she comes, many things may be different.But, maybe if she didn't come, many things would have been different.

The small inn was full of guests and friends, but none of them were ordinary people.

Tan Ni walked in, and she was greeted by several probing gazes. The capital was already a jumble of dragons and snakes. Almost everyone was guessing at others. People in the martial arts are always extra cautious and extra reckless. The two are actually not the same. Not contradictory.For example, at this moment, they are cautiously exploring the details of Tan Ni, but boldly and without concealing this inquiry.

As if he didn't notice these gazes, Tan Ni walked straight to the counter.Although the capital city is overcrowded, it is the most prosperous area in Ming Dynasty after all, and there has never been a situation where there are nowhere to live due to the fact that every place is full.

Sure enough, there were still rooms in the small inn, but they were much more expensive than usual.

"Four taels of silver, one night." The younger brother's attitude was very good, perhaps because of the good business, he was full of smiles.The inn is small, and there is only one type of room, regardless of class, all four or two.

The one-month salary is not enough for one night's housing price. Police officer Xiaoqin quickly took out all the assets from his pocket, spread them in the palm of his hand, and counted them in front of the second brother with his slender fingers—1.

So, he looked up at the second brother.

The stunning beauty was staring at him unblinkingly, the younger brother suddenly felt more pressured, swallowed his saliva, stretched his neck and glanced at the shopkeeper who was busy making plans behind him, and threw him fiercely at the shopkeeper With sharp eyes, he immediately retracted his neck, and said with a sneer, "I'm sorry, girl, it's a small business..."

"Let's put the girl's rent in my account."

Before the little second brother could finish his polite words, Cheng Yaojin, who was kind and thought he was flamboyant, came out.

So, the face is really useful sometimes, Tan Ni thought.But at this moment, she didn't want to use her face like this.So, she didn't even look at the passer-by Jia Cheng biting the gold, put the money back into her arms expressionlessly, and said calmly: "It will be recorded in Ye Gucheng's account."

Cheng Yaojin immediately fell silent, the second brother stared round, and the small inn fell silent.

All eyes were on Tan Ni.

After a while, the second brother asked cautiously: "Excuse me... are you the owner of City Lord Ye...?"

Everyone in the small inn unconsciously pricked up their ears.

Qin Ni said lightly: "The creditor."

If it wasn't for that guy named Ye Gucheng who had enough to eat and drink and had nothing to do, why would there be so many troubles because of the decisive battle against Zijin.If so many troubles hadn't happened, how could Master Guisun have been killed.If Master Guisun wasn't killed, how could Dong Qing run to her door and cry miserably.Dong Qing didn't come to her door to cry for funerals, how could she throw away the sweet and fragrant plum tea that she had brewed, and ran for more than two hours in one breath, non-stop all the way, rushing to the capital to join in the fun.

Tan Ni's analysis is methodical, and she is a small policeman who patrols the streets, and her fixed work location is Yonghe Street.He is not the head arrester of Six Doors, but he has to go on business trips to arrest criminals from time to time.

Therefore, the responsibility lies entirely with Ye Gucheng.Travel expenses should be borne by him.

So, all the knights in the inn knew——

A person with a net worth of only one tael of silver asked for debts from the majestic lord of Baiyun City. This person is not only a woman, but also a stunning beauty.

Unconsciously, everyone began to chew on the deep meaning of this matter.

No one would believe that the mighty lord of Baiyun City would borrow money from a woman, especially since this woman couldn't even afford the room fee of four taels of silver.This woman is still a stunning beauty.

A stunning beauty asks a man for debts, but what she asks for is not money, then there is only one——

Love debt!

The eyes of the heroes are shining.For men, the only thing that can make their eyes shine is sex besides gambling.

Of course, they also care about another thing at the same time.

"Miss, do you know where City Lord Ye is?"

The one who spoke was actually that passer-by, Jia Cheng Yaojin.The ones who paid attention were all the people in the small inn.

Qin Ni finally turned to look at him this time.

A young man with good looks, good temperament, and a bit of chic and elegant demeanor, which makes people look very pleasing to the eye, he is not like the frivolous and self-styled guy who usually strikes up a conversation with women.Wearing a blue shirt, the texture is good, but not too good, at least not as fine as Ximen Chuuxue's, and there are two Yanling sabers stuck in his waist.

"'Yan Ling Shuang Fei' Zhan Fei." The young man smiled, reported his family name, and cupped his hands, "Just now I saw that the girl was in trouble, and I just offered to help. I didn't mean to offend. Please don't mind the girl."

Tan Ni stared at him for a while, did not answer his polite words, but said: "If you meet a creditor, should you go up and say hello, or turn around and run away."

Zhan Fei was stunned for a moment, then realized immediately, shook his head and said with a smile: "If I meet a creditor, I must run as far as I can, and I will never let her find it."

Tan Ni nodded, "Then how would I know where Ye Gucheng is?"

Zhan Fei said: "Girl really shouldn't know, it was Zhan who asked the wrong question." Saying this, he bowed to Tan Reverse.

Tan Ni said: "In that case, can you tell me about Ye Gucheng?"

Zhan Fei smiled wryly, he was originally the person who asked, but now he has become the person who is being asked, but he is a frank gentleman, so he still said: "There were many rumors before, and some people said that Lord Ye was killed by Tang Tianyi, the eldest son of the Tang family in the middle of Sichuan." Injured by the poisonous sand. No one in the world can decipher the hidden poison weapon of the Tang Sect except the children of the Tang family. No matter who is hit by their hidden poison weapon, even if he does not die at the time, he will not live for long. But after that, Ye Gucheng was in Chunhua When the building appeared, the maid accompanied him, flowers paved the way, and a trick of the Flying Immortal pierced Tang Tianrong's shoulders, the rumors were self-defeating. Now, no one knows where Ye Gucheng is."

Tan Ni listened silently, and asked again, "Where is Ximen Chuuxue?"

Zhan Fei shook his head and said, "No one knows where Ximen Chuuxue is."

Qin Ni didn't ask any more questions.

Ye Gucheng's name is very useful, probably no one has ever dared to blatantly steal the name of "Flying Immortal from Heaven". The shopkeeper of the inn immediately welcomed Qin Ni into the best guest room.

By the way, another piece of news quickly spread from the small inn to every corner of the capital——

The woman of Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City, "Flying Immortal Beyond the Sky", came.

When Lu Xiaofeng heard the news, he was drinking with Li Yanbei in one of his thirty mansions.

Four dishes of fruit, four dishes of side dishes, and eight-color table wine have been placed on the table—one dish of smoked fish, one dish of smoked duck, one dish of crystal knuckles, one dish of roast goose, one dish of black-skinned chicken, one dish of A dish of dancing donkey, a dish of fried walnut meat with shallots, a dish of fat lamb intestines, and a freshly served lamb head.

It was very rich and very appetizing, Lu Xiaofeng was even ready to use his chopsticks, and Ouyang Qing was still cooking him one of her best pickled snails in butter in the kitchen.

But he jumped up immediately and came to the small inn together with Li Yanbei.

When he saw Tan Ni, Lu Xiaofeng's jaw almost dropped. He pointed at Tan Ni, his hands trembling a little, and stared at the second brother who led the way, "She...she is... a woman from Ye Gucheng?"

Lu Xiaofeng didn't understand at all that someone who went to Wanmei Villa to stay with Ximen Chuuxue alone for more than half a year, how could he become Ye Gucheng's woman?

The little second brother was startled by his attitude, took a step back unconsciously, flinched, and said, "Yes... yes, I... this shop only has this female customer today. And... and... this female customer Guest—" said by himself.

The second brother didn't finish speaking, and under Lu Xiaofeng's "horrified" gaze, he swallowed the rest unconsciously.

Lu Xiaofeng stared at him, and said: "But...she should be Ximen Chuuxue's woman!"

The second brother opened his mouth wide, "Huh?"

Tan Ni also blinked, dumbfounded, Monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out, a woman from Ye Gucheng?she?

Lu Xiaofeng shook his hand, and the second brother was sent off unsteadily.

Li Yanbei was also stunned, staring at Tan Ni, then at Lu Xiaofeng, and asked in a daze, "Whose woman is it?" Ye Gucheng, or Ximen Chuuxue, can such things be confused?

Lu Xiaofeng was also very helpless, stroked his mustache, walked up to Tan Ni and sat down, and said, "Have you seen Ye Gucheng?"

Tan Ni shook his head, "No."

Lu Xiaofeng stared, "Then why would they say you are a woman from Ye Gucheng?" God knows how happy he was when Hua Manlou said that Ximen Chuixue and Tan Ni were possible, he always hoped that his friends would be happy.

Tan Ni said calmly, "How do I know?"

Lu Xiaofeng was speechless.

What they didn't even know was that the dizzy second brother went downstairs dizzily, and dizzily spread a dizzy message to all the heroes who were still in the inn——

Ye Gucheng's woman was actually Ximen Chuuxue's woman.
