"Good!" "Good sword!"

At the door of the blacksmith's shop, a young man excitedly held a long sword that he just got, and danced vigorously in his hand.Even excitedly, he went to find a piece of firewood from a nearby resident's house, split it in half on the spot, and the surrounding crowd applauded and applauded.

"Abo, your sword is too powerful!"

Although it was early spring, Xiao Liu was sweating profusely. He fondly stroked the long sword with inscriptions engraved in his hand, and was still thinking about when he would let the senior brother put a spell on the sword.

Uncle from the blacksmith shop brought a bundle of cloth strips amidst the praises, and helped him wrap the hilt of the sword bit by bit, and said while wrapping it up: "At the beginning, your big brother's dagger and master's iron rod came from me. I called here. I can easily refuse to accept the order, your master and brother love you, you have to repay them well."

Thinking of the dead master, Xiao Liu's expression also darkened for a moment: "I know."

But the third child next to him seemed a little uneasy. He looked around and said, "Abbot, we've already paid the deposit. How much will it cost? We're leaving soon."

"So fast?" Uncle at the blacksmith shop was stunned for a moment, but when he thought of their recent situation, he felt a little bit sad, "It's better to leave early, and leave the capital, which is a place of right and wrong... Here, here you are, a total of 150 money."

Xiao Liu took out the money bag from his arms, and was about to count the money and hand it over when he suddenly heard a haughty voice from beside him: "I'll pay two hundred!"

He turned his head abruptly, and glared at the man angrily: "Who are you? This sword is clearly pre-ordered by me!"

"It's been pre-ordered a long time ago, but it's just that the money is not enough." The young man sneered, with a look of disdain to answer him, he turned to the blacksmith's uncle and said, "Hey, old man, can't you sell it for two hundred?" Sell?"

Uncle glanced at him calmly, and lowered his eyes: "I'm sorry, young master, the old man is a small business, and this skill is not worth two hundred dollars."

As he said that, he took the money from Xiao Liu, and was about to hand out the cloth-wrapped sword, but the bodyguard behind the young man grabbed his hand, screaming in pain.

"Do you dare to hit someone?"

Xiao Liu was impatient, and his anger rushed to the top of his head in an instant, and rushed over to pick up the young man's collar.

But the son brought more than one bodyguard. The third child supported Uncle, who was about to fall to the ground, and kicked away a man who wanted to sneak attack on the sixth child; He stopped fighting, and immediately came over to help his family support the situation.

The onlookers were so frightened that they exclaimed from time to time, and invariably retreated an open space for them, but they were reluctant to leave because of the excitement, so they hid at the exit of the alley and poked their heads to watch the gods fight.

"Xiao Liu, don't forget what Senior Brother Gu said last night!" Although the third child was also very angry, he was the oldest one present after all, and he managed to retain some sense of reason, knowing that it would not be good for them if things went wrong, " Don't argue with this kind of person, let's go!"

"Go? Who told you to go!" The young man was pushed into a squatting position by Xiao Liu. He didn't hurt anything, but he felt that he had suffered a great humiliation, so he pointed at them and yelled, "You know I'm righteous!" Who is the father? A bunch of ignorant dogs! My adoptive father is the famous Chief Manager Xie! If you dare to do anything to me, I will let him put you all in prison and beheaded. Blind and deaf old man, break his dog legs!"

"you!"

Xiao Liu was so angry that he wanted to rush up and beat him up, but was stopped by the third child behind him, "Don't be impulsive!"

Xiao Liu glanced at the young master who was being lifted up and jumped to his feet. He endured it, but still couldn't hold it back. He deliberately raised his voice and said, "It turns out that he is the son of Chief Manager Xie. He really has eyes and eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai. However, I don't know Then how did the manager get his son? This Young Master Xie, will he also take up the post in place of his father in the future and serve the court?"

These words were harsh, and he didn't save any face for this young master. Hearing this, the people watching beside him couldn't help but snicker.The parties were even more furious, and they wanted to call the thugs to beat them to death in the street regardless.

With the arrival of the city's sheriff, the situation suddenly became more complicated.

The third child and the others didn't want to stay here any longer, and planned to use a little magic to get away, but unexpectedly, among the sheriffs was not only a man in blue with superb martial arts, but also a man in blue who made them tear up their eyes. old acquaintance——

Three years ago, Mu Kongxuan, the national teacher of the dynasty who advised the imperial court and eventually led to three years of turmoil and the decline of Taoism.

"Mr. Lin, where are you going?"

Lin Xiaodong stopped, and said helplessly, "It's just going out to get some air, don't watch so closely, right?"

But the stern second child just pretended not to hear: "Senior brother Gu ordered that if you go out, you must be followed by someone."

"Oh, that's fine." Lin Xiaodong pretended to be helpless, and sighed, "But I don't want you to accompany me, where is Gu Xingzhai?"

"...Senior Brother Gu went shopping in the street."

"What time is it now? I'm going out of town soon. What else is he buying?" Lin Xiaodong sneered, staring at the second child with flickering eyes, and asked step by step, "You think I'm a fool? Just now he looked like a fool." I saw him go out with a big change in expression, and Xiao Liu and the others haven't come back since they went to get the sword, so tell me, what happened?"

The second child shook his head, clenched the dagger at his waist, and kept his mouth shut.

"It's okay if you don't say anything," Lin Xiaodong has a lot of ways to deal with this kind of stubborn ass, "It just so happens that there was a water leak in my room last night. If you have nothing to do, come and help me fix the roof."

This can be agreed, the second child did not hesitate, and agreed directly.

But when the only honest person in the division walked into Lin Xiaodong's room and looked up at the roof for a long time, he didn't find any leaks.Just as he was about to turn around to ask, he smelled a scent that dazzled him at the tip of his nose. After a moment of distraction, his head was hit hard, and he fell down on the bed with his eyes closed.

"Fight with me." The young man snorted and clapped his hands triumphantly, but soon couldn't maintain his expression because of the tingling pain from his fingertips. He twisted his face and put the wound on his finger Suck/suck into mouth to stop bleeding.

After finishing the second side, he immediately put on the bamboo hat and went to the street to look for Gu Xingzhai and the others.But before leaving, Lin Xiaodong thought for a while, and took the dagger that was almost exactly the same as Gu Xingzhai's from the second child's waist.

It's easy to find people, just ask casually, and they will say that the government is arresting people on the street where the blacksmith shop is located, but how to get out is a big problem.Lin Xiaodong walked to the scene of the incident, managed to squeeze into the crowd, and saw a man in an official robe with a long beard facing Gu Xingzhai at both ends of the street.

And beside the long-bearded man, stood a familiar face—it was the man in blue who made things difficult for Xiao Liu at the gate of the capital when they first arrived in the capital.

But at this time, the man in blue was not in a good state, his face was like gold paper, blood was on the corner of his lips, one hand was still tightly covering his arm, his eyes fixed on Gu Xingzhai almost sparkled.Lin Xiaodong thought in his heart, probably he was beaten by a man.

"Young and promising, at the age of more than [-] years old, you can single-handedly beat my number one hero. I think your master can rest in peace." The long-bearded man looked at the flawless Gu Xingzhai, With his hands behind his back, he said coldly, "It's just at the foot of the imperial city, no matter how strong you are, can you still make it out of the sky? Why don't you just obediently catch him with nothing, this will also keep your juniors safe."

Gu Xingzhai took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and said, "I didn't come here to fight. I know the character of my juniors. The national teacher didn't ask the reason of the matter, and ordered people to fight against them indiscriminately." , as a senior brother, I naturally want to seek justice for them, since I am at a loss what to do, how can I arrest them without a fight?"

Only then did Lin Xiaodong notice that the third and fourth children had been gagged and pressed to the ground by the officers and soldiers, and they were looking at Gu Xingzhai and struggling desperately.But the ropes tied to their bodies were not ordinary. No matter how much they struggled, they couldn't break free from the shackles.

Things are in trouble, he thought grimly.

"Tong, who is that person?" Although the situation is urgent, Lin Xiaodong still found out that Gu Xingzhai's emotions were wrong through the subtle expression on Gu Xingzhai's face. It stands to reason that with the calmness of a man, even if the juniors were captured, it shouldn't be at this time. So cruel to the man in blue, "I mean the one with the long beard."

System: "The national teacher of this dynasty, Mu Kongxuan."

"National teacher?" Lin Xiaodong opened his eyes slightly, "How could a small city fight attract the national teacher?"

"Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is aimed at Pei Gong." At this time, the system did not forget to quote the scriptures politely, "Obviously, the person he really wants is you."

Lin Xiaodong frowned tightly, thinking to himself that this person from the government who hunted down the succubus could not be the same?

...that really caused a huge problem.

And while they were talking, the negotiations on the field were still going on.The long-bearded man really came for Lin Xiaodong this time. He waved his hand and signaled the soldiers below to bring the youngest and the others up, and said to Gu Xingzhai: "I didn't want to embarrass you. It’s not easy. But someone reported that you secretly hid the imperial court for criminals, as long as you hand them over, our side will naturally release them.”

Gu Xingzhai's jaw line was tense, wishing he could tear Mu Kongxuan's hands in half on the spot, what right did he have to say "Xuanmen is withered" here?Why is it withered? Does this beast have no idea!

But seeing the eyes of his juniors, he held back his breath and said in a hoarse voice: "The imperial court committed a crime? When we entered the city, we entered the city through the gate of your subordinate. All the people present could see It is clear that there are only me, the sixth junior brother and my wife in the carriage, there are no other people, so how can there be any imperial court offenders?"

Mu Kongxuan was silent for a moment without answering.

This is also the reason why he has been slow to take action against Gu Xingzhai and the others.

Since coming to the capital, Lin Xiaodong has always shown others with an appearance that has never appeared on the wanted list. Although he is equally outstanding, he is very different from the original one. Anyone with eyes will not recognize them as the same. Personally - this is thanks to [One-Click Dressup]'s ingenious makeup skills.

But seeing that Gu Xingzhai and the others were about to leave the city, and the sky was far away from the emperor, Mu Kongxuan really couldn't wait.The aging emperor, the pressure from the whole court, and the dying dragon's veins are all forcing him to find a way to continue his dynasty's life.

According to the ancient records, all these problems can be solved by cutting out the heart from the chest of a young monster who is still alive.For this reason, he was willing to take risks, even if he wanted to be hostile to the Taoism under heaven represented by Gu Xingzhai—anyway, everyone had already called him to beat him—Mu Kongxuan would definitely catch that monster.

Seeing that Mu Kongxuan didn't answer his question, but was unwilling to let him go, Gu Xingzhai's heart sank gradually.

He knew that today's matter might not go well.

Fortunately, the man thought to himself, he had already told his second child that if he didn't come back after an hour, he should take Lin Xiaodong out of the city immediately, and never return to the capital no matter what he heard on the way.

"I haven't seen the person you want, and I can't give it to you." He took a step forward, and immediately made all the soldiers present, including the seriously injured man in blue, look like they were facing an enemy. "Today's matter was just caused by a small quarrel, and it is not worthy of Mr. Mu's personal involvement. Please let my juniors go. They don't know anything about this matter. After I go back, I will definitely educate them."

Mu Kongxuan twitched the corner of his mouth: "What if I say no?"

"My juniors are all in your hands. If you refuse to let them go, there is nothing I can do." Gu Xingzhai said calmly. No matter how talented he is, it is impossible for him to save Mu Kongxuan in front of him. There are so many hostages, "But compared to these green heads, I must be more useful. Let them go, and I will go with you."

"Brother, no!"

The excited third child spat out the sackcloth from his mouth at some point, and shouted at Gu Xingzhai excitedly.

"Shut up, there's no place for you to talk here!" Gu Xingzhai shouted, his eyes still looking at Mu Kongxuan in front of him without blinking, "My lord, what do you think?"

To be honest, Mu Kongxuan was really moved.

But when he saw his subordinate who was covering his wound in cold sweat beside him, he couldn't help turning cold again: "Want to bargain with me? It's okay, but you have to kneel down to my people first, kowtow three times to apologize."

"Yes." Gu Xingzhai said lightly, the man didn't even move his eyebrows when he answered, "However, you have to let him go first."

Mu Kongxuan snorted coldly, feeling that anyway, Gu Xingzhai couldn't make any splashes, so he waved his hand:

"Let go!"

The soldiers were afraid of these young men's kung fu, so they didn't dare to untie the rope easily. After receiving the order, they hurriedly tore off the sackcloth from their mouths, and hurriedly hid behind Mu Kongxuan after leaving them behind. — A bunch of useless cowards!

"Now... ahem, it's your turn." The man in blue coughed twice, looked at Gu Xingzhai with a distorted expression of revenge, and urged him repeatedly.

Gu Xingzhai glanced at him with a cold, emotionless gaze.

"Brother!"

The eyes of the third child and the fourth child on the side were tearing apart, the fifth child was clenching his teeth tightly, and the little six had a look of humiliation, tears streaming down his face.

Amidst the smug laughter of everyone in the government, the man took half a step back expressionlessly, lifted his robe, his upper body was still straight - but at the moment when his knee was about to touch the ground, a hand stretched out from behind, He raised his body steadily.

"you--"

Gu Xingzhai suddenly turned around.

"Okay, what is he kneeling for?" Under the man's unbelievable gaze, Lin Xiaodong smiled at him.

The young man took a step forward, took off his bamboo hat, and faced the officers and soldiers with his original appearance, without any fear in his expression.

He said: "Even if it is to kowtow, it has to wait until we worship the hall."
