A resort of the Six Dynasties, a metropolis of the Ten Dynasties.

Jinling City, known as "the cultural hub of the world", has always been the first choice for literati to travel.In the water of the Qinhuai River for ten miles, I don’t know how many dreams of talents and beauties have been immersed.

Fenglin Pavilion, the best restaurant in Jinling City, is located on the bank of Xuanwu Lake, surrounded by green peaks, and the lake looks like a mirror.The master craftsmen in the building are also very good. Sitting in the accordion on the second and third floors, when you open the windows and doors, you can see the scenery of lakes and mountains in your eyes, and you can eat and enjoy the scenery. It has always been the first choice for tourists who come to visit.There are so many people received every day, even the waiter in the building has developed a pair of sharp eyes, who are the identities of the customers, and they are figured out by these little people in the eyes of others almost as soon as they enter the door.

This day, when he saw the line of men and women who walked in calmly at the door, the little brother in the building felt his heart skip a beat. He raised the smile on his face several degrees attentively, and then cautiously greeted him.He has been a waiter in the building for several years, and he is used to seeing people of all kinds and appearances, but the few men and women who walked in today with outstanding appearance are not ordinary people at first glance.

A man and a woman walked in front, the man looked gentle and delicate, and his behavior was quite aristocratic. The woman in green who was holding his hand beside him was beautiful and elegant. .The two looked like a couple.

The other four men and women, the shop boy was a little confused about their relationship.Walking beside the couple were two equally outstanding youths, one on the left and one on the right.A hearty and free and easy, very easy to attract favor.The other one was dressed in white, handsome and radiant.He held a red sandalwood folding fan in his hand, and his temperament was like the breeze and the moon.Almost as soon as he stepped into the gate of the restaurant, he attracted the eyes of most of the restaurant, especially the girls in the lobby, who either boldly or secretly cast their eyes on him.The man in white didn't seem to notice this, or he didn't care about it, and he still talked to the couple in a personable manner with a smile on his lips.However, although he seemed to be having a good conversation with his friends, his attention was always on the person behind him.When the cold and veiled beauty in white clothes helped the hand of the maid beside him across the threshold, although he didn't turn his head, it seemed that he had eyes in the back of his head, and stretched out his hand to support her reflexively. one time.The beauty in white frowned, and there was a faint smile in her watery eyes.

Seeing this pedestrian enter the door, the younger brother in gray clothes and short jacket hastily greeted him, feeling a little thumping in his heart.There were quite a lot of customers today, so when he heard that the first couple really wanted to book the private room on the top floor, the waiter in the shop suddenly showed a embarrassed look, and hurriedly explained to them that the private room on the top floor has been booked .

"Full?" The couple seemed a little surprised when they heard his words.

The little second brother nodded with a bitter face, no.Although there were many people in Jinling City in previous years, it was not like today where the entire Accord floor was fully booked.Even the store owner was a little confused, and asked for a long time if there was any major event in Jinling City recently.

Fortunately, although the identities of this group of people are not simple at first glance, they are surprisingly easy to talk to.After hearing that the private rooms with partitions on the top floor were fully booked, the couple didn't make any noise or dissatisfaction. They asked a few other people for their opinions, and the group followed the waiter to the second floor obediently.

The second floor of the restaurant is actually an accordion, but it is not separated from each other like the top floor.Walking up the stairs on the second floor, you can see that what the waiter said is not bad, even the Accord on the second floor has a lot of people sitting here and there.

The waiter led a group of people to sit down at a table of the Eight Immortals by the window. A gray-haired old woman in Tsing-cloth passed by the next table to get up, and she politely made way for her.

A group of people sat down at the Eight Immortals table. The man in the couple seemed to be very familiar with this restaurant. Before the little boy could introduce him, he said with a smile on his face, "The chef's stew in this restaurant is the best in Jinling. The 'Jingsu Banquet' he set up was even ordered by the aristocratic families in Jinling City."

Seeing that he was talking about boasting about his own restaurant, the waiter's eyes lit up naturally, and he said articulately, "This guest officer is an expert, not a small boast. The craftsmanship of our master chef is indeed unrivaled in Jinling City." Yijue, a few days ago, Mrs. Jin from the 'Wanfu Wanshou Garden' celebrated her birthday and booked hundreds of banquet tables here. It kept the chefs of our restaurant busy for seven days."

This team of men and women with extraordinary temperament is naturally Mingyue Ye Chu Liuxiang and Li Yuhan.Even if you are rushing to Gusu, you will not miss a meal along the way.Because it was only one or two days' drive from Gusu, when they passed by Jinling City, Ming Yueye, who was the weakest after several days of driving, couldn't hold on, so the few of them simply took a rest in Jinling City.After Mingyue Ye had rested, seeing the crowds of people on the long street outside the door, and the weather was clear and sunny, on a whim, a few people simply went out to the best restaurant in Jinling City to taste the local delicacies of Jinling.

At this time, there are still many people in the Accord on the second floor, and the seats that the few people are sitting in the moonlight night are right by the window.To their left were two tables of escorts in gray coats and bunts with knives at their waists.It seemed that they had just finished a trip to the red goods and took a large sum of rewards. In a happy mood, this group of people came together to the best restaurant in Jinling City to try something new.There are a few appetizers on their table, and several people are exchanging glasses and exchanging glasses in a lively manner.There was only one person on the table on the right, a young swordsman in a blue shirt with a long sword on his waist, with a cold face.Ming Yueye and Chu Liuxiang walked in, all of them were good-looking and outstanding, which really attracted the attention of many people on the second floor, but he ate his own food without even raising his head.These two tables are obviously people from the Jianghu, but the table facing the window and next to the stairs is an ordinary middle-aged woman.She has gray hair, and although she is dressed in a simple Tsing Yi, she is well-tailored. When she met Xia Yi's curious gaze, she smiled and nodded at her. Her face was kind and kind. old lady.

Afterwards, there is a mixture of people from the rivers and lakes and wealthy households. There are well-behaved young couples with children, and there are also unrecognizable old men with granddaughters.After all, it is the best restaurant in Jinling City, and everyone who can climb to the private room on the second floor can see something extraordinary.

Before the dishes ordered by Mingyueye and the others were served, the drinks were served first.

After traveling all the way, he will be home soon, and his wife and father's illnesses have all been resolved. Li Yuhan's tense nerves can't help but relax a little.He looked at the people who rushed back to Gusu with him because of the illness of his wife and father. At this time, everyone who was a little tired could not help showing a little touch in their eyes.Li Yuhan stood up with the wine glass in one hand, smiled and said, "Brother Chu, Miss Ming..."

The accident happened at this time.

A long and long sword howl resounded like a dragon's chant resounded through the Accord, and the cold and sharp sword light split the picturesque scenery outside the window like a silver chain in an instant, and rushed straight towards Chu Liuxiang like lightning.And at the moment when the sword whistle sounded, the swordsman in green at the table behind Chu Liuxiang suddenly turned around and his robe puffed up and waved his sleeves, and a seven-pointed snow-like light shot out from his hand and pointed directly at Chu Liuxiang's vest.

The two attacks were made almost at the same time, Chu Liuxiang was sitting by the window, and Mingyueye was beside him.The two assassins suddenly launched an attack when no one expected it. Even if Chu Liuxiang dodged both of these attacks, the beauty sitting behind him would probably die in Fenglin Pavilion today. .

At this critical moment, Chu Liuxiang's toes were on the ground, and the whole person connected to the wooden chair under him moved back like lightning, and was the first to meet the seven-point cold light coming from behind.At the same time, he quickly pressed his right hand on the seat under Ming Yue Ye.The whole portrait of the girl in white leaned to the right, and she was out of the range of the hidden weapon in an instant.With a flick of his left wrist, the folding fan unfolded behind Chu Liuxiang's back with a "swish", followed by seven sounds of "Dao, Dao, Dao".The seven hidden weapons sent by the swordsman in Tsing Yi were nailed to the bones of the rosewood folding fan one by one like rain hitting plantains.

At this time, the man in white had already used his strength to return to the original position, and his slender fingers quickly flicked on the fan bone, and with a "snap", the red sandalwood folding fan closed again.The seven plum-blossom darts on the fan bone shot out like meteors, and hit the tip of the long sword pierced outside the window one after another. There were six crisp sounds of "ding, ding, ding", completely hitting the trajectory of the sword light. After crooked, the last one was nailed hard into the sword-holding wrist of the black-clothed assassin.

This action was ups and downs, and everyone had just realized that the first round of fighting was over.The black-clothed assassin who attacked from outside the window swung his long sword across, and stabbed at Chu Liuxiang again. At the same time, the blue-clothed swordsman behind him also raised his hands, and threw out all kinds of concealed weapons with faint green lights like a rainstorm.

Hu Tiehua finally came to his senses and realized what was going on. Hu Tiehua roared and was about to step forward when the guests at the table behind him who were dressed as escorts suddenly pulled out their swords from their waists and quickly moved towards him and Li Yuhan. , Liu Wumei rushed forward.

Amidst the horrified screams of other guests in the restaurant, the riot officially began.

The wine table was overturned, the cups and plates fell to the ground, and the other people in the Accord on the second floor fled in all directions.In such a messy background sound, Xia Yi, who was also sitting beside Ming Yueye, shook his hands, slipped two short knives into his sleeves, and jumped up, nervously guarding Ming Yueye's side.

At this moment, Chu Liuxiang had already consciously separated the scope of the fight from the place where Mingyueye was.The folding fan flipped over in his hand, and the sleeves of his clothes flew, and moved between the two assassins. The man in white who withstood their attack was calm.

On the other side, both Li Yuhan and Liu Wumei are first-class masters in the Jianghu, let alone Hu Tiehua whose martial arts are still above them.However, when the three of them teamed up, they were held back by those dozen or so seemingly ordinary escorts, who didn't even have the time to come back.

Holding a dagger, Xia Yi forced herself to stand beside Ming Yueye calmly, watching the battle situation between the two sides.The only good news now is that although the two sides fought fiercely and their own combat power was held back by them, the two teams of assassins who came suddenly couldn't spare their hands to deal with them at any rate.Amidst the murderous intent of swords, lights and swords, the girl in white sat quietly on the spot, facing the sudden attack, her expression did not reveal much surprise.Her eyes as cold as water swept across the two killers who attacked Chu Liuxiang, and then fell on the group of escorts who fought with Hu Tiehua and the three of them.

In the midst of the war, the steel knife in the hands of the thin and tall gray-clothed man at the head had been replaced by a strange-shaped weapon that looked like a flower hoe and a steel peck, and his moves were strange and frightening.Another thin man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks directly threw the weapon he had just pulled out, and swooped forward, his body leaped like flying, and his claws were as sharp as knives, piercing Hu Tiehua's eyes.

Such a characteristic fighting style made people recognize the true identity of this group of people pretending to be escorts almost immediately.Mingyue Ye's eyes turned cold, and her gaze passed over this group of people one by one, her starry eyes narrowed slightly, and her light-colored lips parted slightly, "Si Chen Ke, Golden Ape Star, welcome dog... huh ..."

Her voice was as soft as a whisper, and during the fierce battle, no one noticed except Xia Yi who was beside her looked up at the group of people dressed as escorts in surprise.

At this time, the people in the Accord on the second floor could run almost as far as they could run.The old lady in Tsing Yi sitting at the table opposite them was just an ordinary person. She was obviously stunned by the sudden outbreak of bloody conflict. She sat on the seat with a pale complexion under the shadow of swords and swords, her legs were so weak that she couldn't even stand up.In this case, naturally no one would take care of her.When Xia Yi glanced at her, she couldn't bear it, and persuaded, "Hurry up and leave before they come here."

The woman in Tsing Yi nodded tremblingly, and stood up slowly with one hand propped on the table.But at this moment, a dark light from the side of the swordsman in Tsing Yi flashed across, and the old lady's legs gave way and she was about to fall in Xia Yi's direction.Xia Yi frowned, and reflexively took a step back.However, although her consciousness was vigilant, her movements were still half a beat slow.The old lady, who seemed to be about to fall to the ground, jumped up diagonally from below a second before she backed up, stretched out her right hand like lightning, pressed on Xia Yi's body, and then slammed her to the right.

Xia Yi, who didn't have time to react when the acupuncture points were tapped, froze and was pushed to the ground. The old woman in Tsing Yi sprang up and rushed straight to the bright moon night in front of her, which was no longer blocked by anyone.

Even in the fierce battle, Chu Liuxiang still kept two points of attention on Mingyueye's side.Seeing this from the corner of his eye, the man in white suddenly tightened his expression, and slapped the table with his backhand.When the palm force passed, the wine glass on the table jumped into the air, and the crystal liquid splashed three feet.Following the man's finger pointing out, the bright silver wine turned into a sharp and cold water arrow and shot directly between the eyebrows of the woman in Tsing Yi.

A sinister smile appeared on the lips of the woman in Tsing Yi, her left hand had almost reached Ming Yueye's shoulder, and Chu Liuxiang's pointing finger was still seven inches away from the center of her eyebrows.The situation was about to turn into a life-and-death struggle, and the fingers of the white-clothed girl under the wide sleeves that no one in the center of the battle group noticed suddenly moved slightly.Suddenly, the woman in Tsing Yi met the calm gaze of the girl in white. It was clear that there was no murderous look in her eyes, but the woman in Tsing Yi suddenly tightened her heart.An alarm sounded in her mind instantly, yelling loudly at her to get out of the way.This intuition comes from her half-life experience in the rivers and lakes, and has allowed her to escape countless times.

At the critical moment, the woman in Tsing Yi chose to trust her intuition.Just as she was about to step back, her pupils suddenly shrank in the next second.

In the eyes of other people who were eagerly paying attention to Ming Yueye's side, they only saw the woman in Tsing Yi jump up from the ground with a paw and grab Ming Yueye's shoulder like lightning.Just when she was about to succeed, she suddenly let out a terrified scream.As if seeing something horrifying and dangerous, she was so frightened that she flew back, even a little faster than when she was moving forward, and almost turned into an afterimage.

The second after her scream broke out, a brilliant light suddenly lit up in this space.Like a pear tree in full bloom, the white petals fall like rain and waterfalls.Under such a dreamy and beautiful light, the woman in Tsing Yi moved backward quickly and slammed into the wooden railing behind her, and then rolled directly down.

The sudden flash of light stunned the assassins on both sides for a moment.The sound of swords, guns and swords in the room suddenly stopped in the air, and the girl in white who was sitting peacefully on the spot slowly raised her hand, the white and soft sleeve slipped from the back of her hand, and between her white and slender fingers held a delicate and simple silver casket.

There will be blood when it comes out, and it is unknown when it returns empty.The king of hidden weapons, Rainstorm Pear Blossom Nail.

The pupils shrank suddenly, and the swordsman in blue who recognized the top-level hidden weapon of chasing souls almost immediately saw the girl in white who was holding the rainstorm pear blossom nail turned her head slightly, and looked towards him with a half-smile.With a slight trembling all over his body and invisible, he reflexively hit the last bone-penetrating nail in his hand. The swordsman in blue quickly pressed his left hand on the wine table, and the whole person hugged his knees and smashed through the window on one side without looking back. The ground is gone.

The black-clothed assassin who was left on the spot by his companion also reacted quickly and prepared to escape immediately, but Chu Liuxiang, who was far superior to him in lightness kung fu, seized the opportunity to bully him by his side in an instant, raised his right hand and quickly pointed towards his navel. Qi sea hole.The body of the black-clothed assassin froze and was stuck in place, but in the next second, bright red blood splashed out, and a section of silvery sword edge suddenly protruded from the black-clothed assassin's chest.Although he was doing the job of taking people's lives, the moment he realized that his own life was in jeopardy, the black-clothed swordsman's eyes showed horror, and he stared at Jianfeng who was also looking at his chest. Chu Liuxiang, who looked surprised, swallowed his last breath before he could say a word.

The swordsman in black fell to the ground with a bang, and Liu Wumei showed a concerned face from behind him, "Chu Xiangshuai, are you okay?"

In her pale and slender wrist, she was still holding the long sword that had just been drawn from the chest of the black-clothed assassin, and bright red blood slowly flowed from the edge of the sword.When Chu Liuxiang's eyes touched her hand holding the sword, her clear eyes became as deep as an abyss for a moment, and she couldn't see her emotions clearly.But he only took one look at her, then nodded slightly at her, turned around and rushed to Ming Yueye's side.

"Moon?"

Ming Yueye's eyes were withdrawing from the direction where the woman in Tsing Yi was fleeing just now, she turned her head slightly and smiled comfortingly at Chu Liuxiang, "I'm fine." Then she immediately squatted down and touched the ground on one knee, and fell to the ground with one hand Xia Yi went to visit.

At this time, the battle on Chu Liuxiang's side was over.When the woman in Tsing Yi let out a scream and broke through the guardrail to escape, the dozen or so escorts who surrounded Hu Tiehua and the others also quickly started to flee as if they had made an appointment.These people's martial arts are not particularly good, but they have a strange siege method, and they cooperate with each other very tacitly.In addition, Hu Tiehua didn't expect for a while that they would leave as soon as they said they would leave so neatly, and they actually escaped successfully without noticing for a while.

Hu Tiehua reflexively wanted to chase, but was immediately stopped by Li Yuhan.

"Brother Hu, don't chase after the poor. Miss Ming's safety is the most important thing."

He paused slightly after saying a word, and looked back, the girl in red who was following Ming Yueye fell to the ground, and the girl in white was squatting beside her and stretching out her hand to feel her pulse.Hu Tiehua was startled, and immediately strode over anxiously, "Is this little girl surnamed Xia injured?"

At that time, the situation was urgent, the woman in Tsing Yi acted hastily, and the main target was the bright moon night.Therefore, after she restrained Xia Yi, she didn't do anything else to her. After finding out Xia Yi's physical condition, Ming Yueye heaved a sigh of relief, shook her head at Hu Tiehua, thanked him for his concern with a smile, and explained, "It's just that I was Click on it."

After she finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at Chu Liuxiang, her eyes showed the intention of asking for help.Even if she could ascertain Xia Yi's physical condition, she couldn't relieve the acupuncture points.

Under the clear gaze of the girl in white, Chu Liuxiang took a step back calmly, looked back and smiled, "Madam Liu, please help me."

Ming Yueye froze for a moment, then realized that Xia Yi was a girl, and it seemed not good to ask Chu Liuxiang, a man, to untie her acupuncture points.

Liu Wumei glanced at Chu Liuxiang, there seemed to be a half-smile in his expression, but he didn't say much.

The wind blowing from the lake blows into this space where the tension has not dissipated, and the unique fresh smell of the lake carried by the wind makes the thick bloody smell in the private room dissipate a little.At this time, the second floor was in a mess, and all the guests almost escaped... The reason why I said almost was because there was still a pair of grandparents on a wine table in the corner.

The seemingly ordinary old man in common clothes held a stick of dry tobacco in his hand, and continued to drink wine without lifting his head, as if he didn't care about everything around him.On the contrary, the granddaughter next to him, who wore two big black braids, raised her head curiously and glanced this way, her dark eyes overflowing with aura.

When seeing the grandpa and grandson, Li Yuhan's face paled a little invisibly, and he quickly covered it up.He took a step sideways, seemingly inadvertently blocking the eyes of everyone, and said solemnly, "Brother Chu, Brother Hu, Miss Ming. Although those assassins have left, the next batch may not appear suddenly. This is not a place to stay for a long time. , we'd better leave now."

Chu Liuxiang's gaze swept over the wine table in the corner that looked extraordinarily peaceful amidst the chaos, and paused slightly between Li Yuhan's anxious brows.He waved the folding fan in his hand and said with a casual smile, "I don't think you need to be so nervous, Brother Li. These assassins probably won't come to the second batch in a short time."

Li Yuhan was slightly taken aback, "This..."

"If you want to assassinate someone, you always try your best in one go. If the people behind the scenes can really find the next batch of killers, why doesn't he let them join the previous batch of people, so that they can concentrate their strength and be more likely to succeed. .”

Chu Liuxiang's analysis was indeed very reasonable, and Li Yuhan was thoughtful.At this moment, the man in white had already withdrawn his gaze, and lowered his gaze to Mingyueye.Blinking his eyes, Ming Yueye gave him a serious look, "I'm hungry."

Chu Liuxiang smiled immediately, looked back at Li Yuhan and asked, "Brother Li?"

"What Chu Xiangshuai said is that the bad guys have left now. It's time to toast and celebrate." Li Yuhan seemed to have figured it out, and Shuzhan walked up the steps first, "It's just that these people are still us after all. Invited, I will go to the store here to accompany you first, and then see if there are other places that can be arranged."

Liu Wumei also looked at Mingyue Ye with a smile and said, "Miss Ming, let's go down together. I'm afraid there will be no people on the second floor in a short time."

Ming Yueye nodded slightly at her without any other choice.The group then walked down the stairs again.

The breeze blowing from the wide-open window lifted the white-clothed girl's blue hair that hung down to her waist, and her long hair brushed over her shoulders.In the center of a vermilion pillar she passed by, a pinhole made by a rainstorm pear blossom nail was deeply nailed to the innermost layer of the pillar.A drop of bright red blood escaped from the pinhole and slowly slid down the wooden column.

The author has something to say: It was already 1 o'clock in the morning after typing the words yesterday, and I was driven to sleep by my mother disconnected from the Internet... Well, let's count the two chapters of yesterday and today as one.
