Sword God is hard to catch

The wine is a bewitching red, like poppies.The cup is crystal green, like emerald.

The main hall is tall, wide and resplendent.

Outside the hall, there is a large field of gorgeous poppies, the red of the scorching sun, the enchanting purple, and the white of snow, fluttering in the wind, one after another.

Lu Xiaofeng and the others walked in, and walked in openly.A beautiful maid walked gracefully, smiled, and led them in politely.

This is a square, luxurious hall.There is not a single thing in the palace that is not priceless, and there is not a single piece of decoration that is not dazzling.

The only thing that is not glorious enough is perhaps the owner of the hall.

Boss Ba was sitting on a large and luxurious yew wood chair covered with a thick and soft flower-colored brocade cushion.He was not tall, but he was very fat, and his whole body was bloated and sunken in the chair, making it doubtful whether he could stand up by himself.

Even so, although he is not dazzling, he is indeed magnificent and priceless.

He was dressed in luxurious brocade, with a ring of shining gems around his collar.What she stepped on was a pair of high-quality deerskin boots, with a round opal inlaid on each side of the boot.On his head is a crown of red gold inlaid with jade.There is a white and shiny suet jade hanging on the waist.Even his fat hands are wearing five or six red and emerald rings.

This is a veritable showcase of human-shaped gemstones.

It also exudes a strong incense, which is a tribute spice from the Western Regions.

A small catcher who only has two taels of silver a month can't afford a thread on the body of this fat valley boss.

Boss Ba's fat face was full of smiles, and his face was crowded with fat, so distorted that it was almost impossible to see what he looked like.His smile is warm and his voice is warm.

But for some reason, Tan Ni always felt that there was a bit of confidence in this enthusiasm.

This is a dynasty that has not banned smoking.Planting opium poppies and extracting opium are not only prohibited by law, but are even loved by princes and nobles to some extent.

The opium tribute from overseas is always in short supply every year, and only the most honorable, powerful and wealthy people are eligible to enjoy it.

Therefore, Boss Ba can openly welcome Lu Xiaofeng and the others, openly invite them to taste the fine wine in the emerald luminous cup, and show them off to admire the flamboyant and poisonous poppies outside the hall.

No one can catch him.Even the law protects him.

Neither can Qin Ni.

This made Tan Ni very uncomfortable and made her very unhappy.

No special policeman likes to see a big drug lord arrogant in front of him openly, not to mention there is such a large area of ​​even more arrogant poppies outside.

Drug lords are more hated than killers (congratulations, Ximen Chuuxue has finally come down from the most wanted list).

The maid walked over and leaned at Boss Ba's feet, showing him a pure and charming smile as if a spring flower blooms in March, raised her white fist and gently hung down his leg, obediently like a moving bird cat.

Boss Ba didn't look at her, his eyes seemed to pass over the four of them carefully, his fat face covered his expression and his eyes.

The body stuck in the chair did not move, Boss Ba shook his passionate smile, opened his plump and gorgeous palm, made a gesture of "please" to the four of them, and said loudly in a hoarse voice: "Lu Xiaofeng with four eyebrows , the playboy from Baihualou of Huajia in the south of the Yangtze River, Sikong, the king of thieves, and Captain Tan from Yonghe Street. To welcome four of you here today, my little valley is considered to be full of splendor. Please, please sit down."

Lu Xiaofeng was not polite, he didn't seem surprised at all by the other party knowing the details of his whereabouts, he sat down carelessly.

Of course, Hua Man Lou and Si Kong Zhai Xing would not be polite.No matter what kind of attitude Boss Ba has or what kind of posture he puts on, there is no way to influence these people.Even though this may be the rumored "Dream of the Underworld".

Tan Ni also sat down. She took a look at Boss Ba, then turned her head in a daze, or rather, she was not in a daze, she was just looking at the only empty seat left.

Lu Xiaofeng was also looking at that seat.

Boss Ba followed their gazes, laughed, shook his head and said, "It's a pity, it's a pity. I thought there would be five guests today."

That's right.

People, there are four.

There are five chairs, and five cups.

The only difference is that the last cup is not a wine glass, but a teacup.Since it is not a wine glass, what is contained in it is naturally not wine.

That is a glass of plain water.

The missing one is Ximen Chuuxue.

Of course Ximen Chuuxue doesn't drink alcohol, boiled water and boiled eggs are his favorites.

Boss Ba shook his head, as if he really regretted not seeing Ximen Chuuxue, "I thought I could see the peerless demeanor of Ximen Zhuangzhu, alas, what a pity, what a pity."

Ximen Chuuxue only went out four times a year at most, and each time he came back with the long sword unsheathed and bleeding.No one would like to see Ximen Fuxue, except his friend, oh, and now there is a little girlfriend to catch one.

But Boss Ba has already said four "it's a pity" in a row.

Qin Ni didn't like his attitude very much.

She turned her head, and in a voice that everyone could hear, "quietly" said to Sikong Zaixing beside her: "He said he wanted to see Ximen Chuuxue? I heard it right, right?"

Sikong Zhaixing also regained his energy immediately, and also "quietly" said: "No. I heard it too, the extra seat is for Ximen Chuuxue."

Tan Ni said: "But, Ximen Chuuxue doesn't like to drink, even if he drinks water, he wouldn't like to come here."

Sikong Zhaixing: "Oh, then what does he like?"

Qin Ni said: "Killers only like to kill people."

Sikong Zhaixing shuddered shiveringly, retracted his neck and buried his head in the wine.

Tan Ni turned his head in a friendly manner to Boss Ba, who had a stiff smile, and asked kindly, "Excuse me, do you need me to call Ximen Chuuxue? Although I don't know where he is now, I can still make time for a cup of tea." Arrived. His lightness kung fu is pretty good, especially when killing people, he has always been very pious and serious, and he will never delay."

Boss Ba stared at his eyes that were almost invisible due to the fat, stared at Tan Ni for a while, and smiled dryly, "No, you don't need to bother."

Tan Ni also nodded kindly, "Let me just say, who can't think about it so much, and wants to die by himself. It's not that he smoked too much opium, right?"

Boss Ba didn't speak any more, just stared at Tan Ni, his fat face made it difficult to see his expression clearly.

Lu Xiaofeng picked up the wine glass on the table, stared at the crystal blue wine-red liquid, took a sip, but it was only a sip, he didn't drink water as usual, of course, wine shouldn't be poured, However, other wines should not be taken.

"Good wine, good wine."

Lu Xiaofeng put down his wine glass, smacked his lips, but didn't drink any more.

Boss Ba laughed loudly, picked up the wine glass in front of him, took a deep breath, and said: "Grape wine luminous glass, if you want to drink the pipa, call it immediately. Jun Moxiao, who is drunk on the battlefield, how many people have fought in ancient times. They all say Lu Xiaofeng He is a wine lover, as expected. But I don’t know, how does my wine from the Western Regions compare to other wines?”

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "The cup is good, the wine is good, and the poetry is even better. It's just one thing that's not good."

Balao Avenue: "Which place?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "There are flowers outside the hall and wine on the table, but why are there no women?"

"Woman?" Boss Ba glanced at the beautiful servant girl at his feet, and laughed loudly, "Don't go and pour wine for Daxia Lu."

The beautiful maid smiled and stood up.

Lu Xiaofeng stretched out a finger and shook it, "No, no, a gentleman doesn't take what others like. Is this the only woman here?"

Boss Ba laughed and said: "Of course I have not only one woman here, but also all kinds of women, beautiful and pure, with everything you need. They are all beauties. What do you want?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "I just want a woman."

Boss Ba put down his glass and stared at him, "Who?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Shangguan Feiyan."

Flowers linger, grass grows and warblers fly.This is a valley full of fragrance of flowers, fiery red manjusawa, coquettish poppies are fluttering in the wind, and sometimes there are colorful butterflies flying.

But it is not a pleasant place.

Neither Qin Ni nor Hua Man Lou would like this place.The same is true for Lu Xiaofeng and Sikong Zhaixing.

Because they all know that there is a deep evil behind this beauty.

Boss Ba said that there is neither Shangguan Feiyan nor Sun Xiuqing here.Or even if there is, he may not know it, he has never cared about these little things.Not everyone is qualified to be received by him personally.

But Lu Xiaofeng and the others are precisely the qualified ones.

The rooms are luxurious and comfortable.

The quilt is exquisite Suzhou embroidery, and the floor is covered with a carpet of clusters of flowers and brocade.There is wine on the table, not jade cup wine, but the best old Huadiao.

Wine lovers are of course most interested in wine.Lu Xiaofeng has already picked up the wine glass and the jug.

Tan Ni lowered his head to study the gorgeous carpet under his feet.

Huamanlou stood by the window, and outside the window were fields of poppies blooming.Of course, he couldn't see it at first, but maybe, he has passed through the flower fields and valleys, "saw" the small wild flowers on the hillside outside the valley, and smelled the fragrance of wild grass.

Sikong Zhaixing wandered around the room, he seemed to be interested in every decoration here.Getting a thief interested is actually a very dangerous thing. Even if Sikong Zhaixing usually doesn't steal valuable things, but he has already noticed it, who can guarantee that one day he won't be missed?

Tan Ni guessed that he was secretly estimating the origin and value of these things.

But she has decided to pretend she didn't see it.

"He's lying."

Undoubtedly, no one in the room was surprised by Lu Xiaofeng's words.

Boss Ba is of course lying.Hua Manlou had been here before, and had seen Sun Xiuqing and Shi Xiuxue here.Although Hua Manlou's eyes couldn't see, no one would doubt what he said.Because he has the most sensitive ears and the most sensitive nose in the world.

Lu Xiaofeng took out the withered Bana flower, which was found in Yan's house.It was in Yan Zhen's room.But Yan Zhen died, but his body was gone.

Shangguan Feiyan also died, and her body was gone.

Huamanlou said: "There are no flowers in the hall, not even a single one."

Lu Xiaofeng nodded, "Boss Ba must not like those flowers. It doesn't matter whether it's poppies or Bana flowers."

Sikong Zhaixing said: "Could it be that he also likes little wild flowers?"

Both Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou laughed.

No one knows whether Boss Ba likes small wild flowers, but he obviously doesn't like poppies and other flowers, although he grows them.

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Maybe he's just afraid of them."

Talk about popping color change.Just like almost every modern person avoids poppies.Although many people know that only opium made from its fruit can cause harm.

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly murmured: "Grape wine luminous glass. Wine is good wine, but it's just a pity."

Sikong Zhaixing said: "What a pity?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Unfortunately, it's not the fine wine from the Western Regions."

Sikong Zhaixing said: "No?"

Lu Xiaofeng said firmly: "No."

Sikong Zhaixing said: "Where is that?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "Nanyang."

Qin Ni turned his head: "Nanyang?"

Lu Xiaofeng nodded: "Nanyang. But it's still good wine. The wine is sweet and mellow."

Hua Manlou suddenly smiled and said, "Poetry is also good poetry."

Lu Xiaofeng said: "It's really a good poem. Especially for this Ba Guzhu from the Yi nationality."

Sikong Zhaixing sighed, lying on the table, and said weakly: "A Yi nationality who speaks well. It's really amazing. If he is really a Yi nationality, maybe he can go to the No. [-] examination."

Tan Ni suddenly lowered his face, and said lightly: "Although the number one scholar may not be able to pass the exam, you can try to compete in the Forbidden Top. Isn't he not afraid of Ximen Chuuxue?"
