Although most of us live in ease, it does not mean that this is a comfortable world. Some struggles are not happening around us, and some struggles even if they are around us can't be aware of. Jianghu is a world where demons and angels coexist, full of contradictions and fun, and sometimes it is inevitable to be a little tragic and cruel.
Saying goodbye to Gillian and Chenpi, Li Muye knew that the only way to make this safe passage truly safe was to let all insiders disappear except for the users. Chen Pi and Gillian have been at ease for eighteen years. From the moment Li Muye and Bai Xinyue stepped into Huichun Hall, Jianghu had prepared the home for the two.
If you choose the romance of the rivers and lakes, you have to learn to adapt to its coldness and cruelty.
Flew from the steep and slightly cold southern hemisphere to the northern hemisphere, which is in midsummer. When Li Muye got off the plane, he took Bai Xinyue to the beautiful Lake Zurich area regardless of his fatigue.
The dock on the lake is full of yachts of all colors, like a club for the rich. The end of the Zurich Lake section goes deep into the city center. White swans and wild ducks can be seen everywhere on the lake, relaxing and harmonious. The northern shore of Lake Zurich is home to the wealthy, known as the golden shore, while the southern shore is called the silver shore.
Under the recommendation, it is really good, it is worth installing, after all, there are many books, complete books, and fast updates!
This is a bar with an elegant environment, slow atmosphere and rhythm, mellow whiskey aroma accompanied by a melodious saxophone.
Li Muye walked to the bar with Bai Xinyue on his back, and smiled at the short, sturdy and rich middle-aged Chinese with long shiny black hair: "Is there any Chinese medicine?"
The middle-aged man's complexion changed slightly, the action of wiping the wine bottle paused, and he quickly returned to normal, nodded, and asked, "What do you want?"
Li Muye said: "I want angelica and astragalus."
The middle-aged man's lips puckered slightly, and said, "Where do the guests come from?"
Li Muye said, "The south wind blows, I bought tangerine peel and donkey-hide gelatin first and then came here."
The middle-aged man nodded and said: "Two of you, wait a minute, let me explain, let's go back and talk slowly."
Li Muye looked at his slightly trembling hand behind him, and nodded calmly: "Okay."
backyard.
"Which city in North America are you going to?" the middle-aged man asked with a friendly smile on his face.
Li Muye said: "New York, Chicago, any eastern city will do."
The middle-aged man nodded and said: "Understood, rest assured, I will arrange it as soon as possible." He turned and left.
"Brother Huang stayed." Li Muye stopped him and asked: "After Brother Huang is over here, what are your plans for the next step?"
The man's name was Huang Qi, and he frowned when he heard the words, and said: "Mr. is here to borrow the way. Just listen to Huang's arrangements. Why ask so much."
"Just ask." Li Muye retracted his uncomfortable gaze, and said: "Brother Huang arrange to go."
Huang Qi said very politely: "The two have a good rest for a few hours here. I have sent someone to clean the room, and the supplies have been replaced with new ones. When I arrange the route, I will come back and send the two on the road."
Li Muye smiled and said, "No, we can just wait in the bar."
Astragalus was very polite: "The journey is hard, there is a bed in the room inside, which can relieve fatigue, after all, the next two will fly across the Atlantic Ocean."
Li Muye waved his hand and said, "Brother Huang is welcome, I want to go to the front for a drink."
Huang Qi looked at Bai Xinyue and said, "Then let the children rest in the room."
Li Muye flatly refused: "She is with me."
Huang Qi stopped insisting, nodded, and said, "In that case, please feel free to do so."
There are not many guests in the bar, and the saxophone player is a black man who is blind and fat, but the song of Babylon River is deeply touched by the affectionate interpretation of him.
The rich and full sound quality and the graceful and graceful techniques will express the deep feelings in the heart like flowing water. A white lady listened to tears, and she recited to the music in an affectionate tone: Babylon River, you are flowing quietly, how peaceful the night is, but how do you know it, right beside you, we were persecuted How desolate the stranger is, I hope the Holy Spirit can also know our heart, our prayers and meditations...
As soon as the door of the bar opened, a middle-aged man with black beard, black hair and yellow skin and a young man with long brown hair in Indian monk costume entered side by side. The two went straight to the bar, asked for a bottle of wine and two glasses, and found a table to sit down, taste the wine and listen to music.
Li Muye and Bai Xinyue sat in the corner and ordered a bottle of tequila and a drink. Bai Xinyue quietly wrote on the table: There is a problem with these two people.
"Yeah." Li Muye nodded, and wrote on the table with his fingers: It doesn't matter, everything is mine.
I am more worried that there is a problem with Astragalus.
Li Muye responded with a smile and wrote: Don't worry, he must have a problem.
Are you still going? Bai Xinyue looked over in anxious manner.
Li Muye grabbed her with a big hand, and wrote on the palm of his hand: Don't worry, there is me in everything.
Six words, one promise.
Bai Xinyue fixed her eyes on Li Muye, and finally bowed her head and wrote on the palm of her hand: Thank you.
There was another visitor in the bar, and a tall black man walked in wearing a cloak that was inconsistent with the season. A pair of huge copper rings hung on his ears, which looked so conspicuous that it was easy to overlook. The colorfully patterned short knife slung around his waist.
The black man entered the door with his front foot, followed by three white men from the middle school and middle school on the back. The old man has white hair and deep blue eyes. The two middle-aged people are twins, with funny smiles on their faces, and their gestures are flirty. One of them had a crow standing on his shoulder, and the other was thiefly looking at the other people in the bar from the moment he walked in. He looked at almost everyone carefully, but he only jumped over when he saw Li Muye and Bai Xinyue at the table.
After a while, a middle-aged man with black hair, blue eyes and a hand-made straight suit came in with an umbrella. First stood at the door and inspected it around. Whenever there was eye contact, he nodded slightly, and finally walked straight to the table of Li Muye.
The middle-aged man hung an umbrella on his left forearm, gave a slight bow, and asked, "I'm sorry, excuse me, is it Mr. Li Muye?"
"No." Li Muye replied in Chinese.
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Mr. Li has a great sense of humor, but to borrow an old saying from you Chinese, you are not a bachelor if you don't tell lies in front of real people."
Li Muye noticed that the handle of his umbrella was gold with an S engraved on it, and a family emblem in the shape of the letter K was attached to his straight suit. The former represents his level of strength, while the latter represents that he is a member of the core elder level of the Imperial Power League.
"We Chinese still have an old saying, don't talk nonsense with fools who knowingly ask." Li Muye said coldly.
The middle-aged man frowned: "Mr. Li, you have insulted a noble gentleman very uneducated. I am ashamed of your words and deeds."
Li Muye calmly said: "Your Excellency, you are very good at pretending to be educated, but educated people usually don't take the initiative to disturb others. Do what you want to do directly, don't you put this hypocritical nobleman in front of Lao Tzu Fan'er, no matter how you pretend, you can’t conceal the gangster smell on you. When you are a bitch, you still want to set up an archway and go to your imperial power alliance!"
The middle-aged man slammed his umbrella on the ground, took a deep breath, forced down his anger, and said: "Mr. Li, you are very unfriendly and lack education. The reason why I still communicate with you in this way is Because I hope to solve your and my problems in a peaceful way." He pointed to Bai Xinyue, and said: "The current situation is that someone asks her at a high price that we can't refuse, and we are determined to get it, so whatever you do Whatever choice we make, we must take her away."
"It seems that we have reached an agreement." Li Muye said, "Just save the nonsense and talk about it. Just do what you want."
"Mr. Li, I don't like to use this method to solve problems." The middle-aged man continued in an authentic London accent: "I heard that you are a smart person, so I hope to resolve disputes in a smart way. She is the heir of Baiyuntang, and Mr. Anasayev of Eastern Siberia does not like to accept the nominal control of Baiyuntang. If you hand her over to me, Mr. Huang from Nanhaimen and Taipinghui will be very satisfied. We Her Royal Highness will also hold the same opinion on this."
Bai Xinyue sat there quietly and listened, looking calm. In fact, her little hand had already unknowingly squeezed Li Muye's big hand.
"She is my daughter." Li Muye said: "If you want to take her away, cut off my head first. Without this determination, you will leave me far away."
"It's nothing difficult!"
Before the middle-aged man spoke, he suddenly drew a long, narrow and sharp sword from the umbrella and pierced Li Muye's throat viciously. He was kind of agitated before, but when he moved his hand, he was yin and ruthless, and his sword pierced Li Muye like a poisonous snake. There is no hint of empathy.
Li Muye held the tiger's bone blade early in his hand, and the moment the opponent shot his hand, his heart beat violently, and the sound of his muscles and bones burst into his ears. There was no need to look at the movement, Li Muye already knew that he was going to do it. The tiger's bone blade appeared accurately on the trajectory of the long sword piercing, and it was an understatement.
The tiger's bones are short and the long sword is not made of ordinary steel. The comparison between the two seems obvious. The middle-aged man stabbed steadily, and suddenly felt a light in his hand. The tiger's bone blade cut off the long sword, and he followed the long sword to his hand. He resolutely abandoned his sword and retreated too fast. Li Muye couldn't keep up at all. He watched him retreat three steps away, hurriedly flipping his palm and protruding a wax pill from his sleeve, and a silvery white mist erupted from his hand. The paralysis needle was hidden inside, and at the same time attacked the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was caught off guard, but he reacted extremely fast, and his movement speed was by no means comparable to that of ordinary combat masters. After hurriedly, he fell on the spot and stood up before Li Muye chased and attacked him, not forgetting to command his hand. The sword is impenetrable. Stand up and trim your hair first, then dust off your body. Finally, he was so embarrassed that he cried out: "Do it!"
There was a bang, and the flames lit up. The tall black man was the first to attack. As soon as the middle-aged man's voice fell, this guy took the lead to get up from the chair. When he was halfway there, his whole body suddenly burst into flames, and his whole body was bathed in the flames. In the middle, the gods and demons usually come to Li Muye... (End of this chapter)
