Walking under an umbrella in the heavy mud, Xu Fengnian stretched out his hand and slowly tore off a piece of rooting mask, and put it in his arms. Among the six masks carefully crafted by the maiden from southern Xinjiang, Shu Hui, there are three levels of breathing, rooting and ecstasy. It can be smeared and removed at will. If it takes root, it will take a lot of energy. One piece of ecstasy, Shu Hui said that it can only be used once and it will be invalid. As for the reincarnation skin that changes the root bone, it will not restore the original appearance even if it is disfigured after wearing it. point. A piece of rooting can be used repeatedly three to four times. Xu Fengnian doesn't want any dead men to follow him. He left a puppet in Beiliang's palace to act as a cover-up. After entering Beimang, he will inevitably become a thrifty miser.
Kill six people of the second rank, three people of the Vajra Realm, and one person of Zhixuan.
This is one of the goals that Xu Fengnian set for his trip to Beimang. Most of the reasons why he chose Liuyu City in Longyao Prefecture as the foothold of Beimang was because he came here for Tao Qianzhi, the city shepherd. The secretly promoted forward general, was placed by the Northern Mang court in the remaining city where the gunpowder is not thick. How can it be easy for Tao Qianzhi to stay away from the grievances and grievances with the younger generation of several royal family members? The Liyang Dynasty, which ruled the spring and Autumn period, was eyeing it like a tiger, and it really put on the posture of sitting north and south like a tiger. Who dares to say that Tao Qianzhi is not a key dark chess piece that she pointed directly at Youzhou in Beiliang? Although this person is only a martial artist who is close to the second rank, Tao Qianzhi, whether it is the unity of the people on the border or the threat to Beiliang in the future, is far more than usual. When talking with Xu Xiao secretly, he mentioned this new city shepherd and said that he would kill a Tao Qianzhi is worthy of going to the army to kill three thousand cavalry in Beimang!
At this time, Tao Qianzhi, who likes to torture and kill Beiliang soldiers every day, is not stable, how can Xu Fengnian not do it? Picking today, Tao Qianzhi died at a good time. Although Xu Fengnian took off his mask, and the sincere Chunlei saber on his waist was not conspicuous, but the twenty or so iron armored guards fled back to the left city. Wandering around the city for two days, I have already thoroughly studied the layout of the city, and instead of going through the city gate, I picked a section of the city wall that was rarely populated, and climbed up like a siege ant. Leaped over, settled at the foot of the wall in the city, walked in the deserted alleys and narrow alleys, leaving behind the city other than Tao Qianzhi, there are still talented people, small groups of cavalry swim separately, the martial law is very clever, loose on the outside and tight on the inside, It didn't cause any panic to the people in the city. Xu Fengnian is a well-deserved expert in this level of inspection and arrest. Naturally, he easily avoided it. He even went to the Zhouji shop to buy a drawer of hot steamed buns as promised.
It was only an hour and a half from leaving Wei Mansion to returning, half an hour before lunch, and the servant girl Chun Nong had been waiting in his room. When Xu Fengnian opened the door, the bored little girl was lying on the window rail in a daze, without noticing , until he smelled the fragrance, he turned his head suddenly, and saw Mr. Xu, who was soaked all over, holding a tray of food in his hand, his eyes were red for no reason, such a pair of quiet and charming eyes.
Xu Fengnian had to interrupt her brewing of love, and joked: "Don't be sentimental, I just bought it. Take it, eat it with Qiushui, and as for changing clothes, I can do it myself, so as not to spoil your appetite. Hey Are you crying? Don’t, when outsiders see me, they think I’m not as good as a beast, and if they want to take a drawer of steamed buns, they will kidnap you and elope back to Beiliang.”
The little maid twitched her delicate nose, seeing Mr. Xu's resolute expression, hesitated for a moment, then lost to the glutton, carefully held the steamed bun, and when she reached the threshold, she looked back with a charming smile. Xu Fengnian waved his hand, waited for her to trot away, then bolted the door, took off Chunlei and put it on the table, took out the tightly wrapped knife book and a stack of dough, did not take off the silk armor that was warm in winter and cool in summer, and changed into a new suit The clean and comfortable scribe's green shirt, and the close-fitting items have been re-arranged, it can be called a solitary body. Chun Nong must have eaten the steamed buns carelessly, and was escorted back by the ears of Qiu Shui, who knows more about the general situation, and helped Mr. Xu with his hair. : "Mr. Xu, are you going to leave Liuliu City and return to Lingzhou today?"
Xu Fengnian nodded and said straight to the point: "Uncle Wei originally wanted the two of you to come back to Lingzhou with me, but there is a saying, how can a man get married if he hasn't made any achievements?"
Turning around and seeing the two maids looking at each other, they were so cute, Xu Fengnian laughed and said, "Do you really believe it? I just have a poor family and can't afford to support you. I want to go to Beimang a few more times, and after earning money, I will make you look good." Welcome to Lingzhou."
Chun Nong, who combed Xu Fengnian's hair, said timidly: "Chun Nong and sister Qiushui can play women's red and play piano and chess. It doesn't matter if you don't need Mr. Xu to support you."
Qiu Shui's mind is much more delicate and mature, and he shook his head quietly at Chun Nong. The latter's eye sockets were moist, as if a bank had burst, like a pool of water wrinkled by the spring breeze. Voice.
Of course Xu Fengnian would not really bring this pair of maidservants back to Beiliang, even if he is a helper in the mansion of the Weapon Supervisor Army, it is not suitable, let alone his real identity, which is like a thunder pool, easily getting involved, and easily smashed to pieces. The two ten golden lotuses, which are weak, grow well in such a quiet environment, but if they are transplanted to the turbulent river, they will die early.
In the last lunch in Liucheng, the most eye-catching dish was fried snails with pepper and ginger.
Qingming snails, as fat as geese, a pile of green on a white jade plate.
It's a pity that the fish and dragon gang are a group of vulgar men, and they only recognize pigs, cattle and sheep as meat and vegetables. They don't know how difficult it is for these best seasonal snails to be fished out from the mud ponds and creeks in the south of the Yangtze River and transported alive to Beimang to stay in the city. Fortunately, the banquet There is a whole roasted lamb on each table, which makes the fish and dragon gang eat greasy food. Today, Liu Nirong said that drinking is not allowed, which is a bit of a fly in the ointment, but Miss Liu has become more calm and calm after the departure of Master Xiao and Gongsun Keqing. Following the trend of being the only one to take the lead, the Yulong gang was convinced.
Chun Nong had no tears on his cheeks, but his spirits were low, but Qiu Shui was still graceful and thoughtful, bending over to stand beside Xu Fengnian, picking out the snail meat with a bamboo stick, and putting them on the plate one by one. The old fox, Wei Feng, has already won the closeness of the Fish and Dragon Gang with his arrogance, that is to say, he knows that Mr. Wei is rich and powerful, and he is a wealthy businessman with a firm foothold in Beimang. Recognize a godfather, it’s good to enjoy the shade under the big tree. They used to be confused about the details of the surname Xu. With interest, I began to think about how warm I should be on the way back to Beiliang, so as to make up for the alienation of the north trip.
Wei Feng smiled and said: "Nephew, stir-fried snails are old wine, and the king of hell refuses to leave. This stir-fried Qingming dish is not a famous dish, but it is really difficult to enjoy this taste in Beimang. You should try it more."
It should be that he really treats him as his own nephew, and he didn't continue to be polite, Wei Feng turned his head and smiled at Liu Nirong: "Miss Liu, old man Wei still said the same thing, if you really want cash, you can give it to Yulong Gang right away." Go to the carriage. There are also some strong men in the Wei family who can play a few tricks and can help escort them. I don’t dare to boast, but twenty riders can still squeeze out.”
Liu Nirong shook her head and said with a smile: "It's too reckless to take tens of thousands of taels of silver to walk across the border. These days, the Yulong Gang relies on the old man's hospitality and spends too much money. It's really shameless to let the old man worry about it. Liu Nirong can trust the old man, and he can also trust it It is a two-character ticket shop that is common in the two borders of Beiliang and Beimang."
Wei Feng stroked his beard, smiled without saying a word.
Liu Nirong raised his glass, "Liu Nirong didn't dare to drink too much, but she respects the old man very much, so I will toast the old man three times for the fish and dragon, you can do whatever you want."
She drank three glasses in a row without leaking a single drop. Wei Feng took a sip and put down the glass, but no one thought that the old man was putting on airs. During this period of time, besides relying on Wei's mansion to stay in the city, he also heard many strange anecdotes about Mr. Wei. It is even more exciting than the story of the storyteller in the teahouse.
When the wind and rain stopped, there were many more people on the street who went out to sweep graves.
When they came, there was a carriage with goods, and Xishu Gongsun Lianzhu arrow with an ox horn bow at his feet, but when he left, there was only Xu Fengnian who had taken off the Chunlei knife and put it in the corner. The latter did not pretend to be angry, but accepted it calmly.
Watching the Fish and Dragon Gang drifting away, Wei Feng withdrew his gaze, glanced at Chun Nong Qiushui and the two maids who failed to deliver, frowned, his lips moved slightly, vaguely, I don't know what the old man said .
Passing the city gate, Xu Fengnian, who was not in the wind, took the initiative to get out of the car, and the Yulong gang was ready to lead the way. The gate guards, who had secretly increased their manpower compared to the past, opened the records of entering the city.
A hundred paces away from the city, Xu Fengnian, who was walking on a horse, subconsciously looked towards the top of the city, and saw a woman with a sable forehead standing side by side with the entourage in brocade, and she made a fierce gesture of wiping her neck with a knife!
Xu Fengnian smiled, are they rushing to die on Qingming day
Stay in the city? Leave
Xu Fengnian had the urge to draw his sword at this moment.
A princess with a Xianbei head on her waist, her head doesn't seem to be lighter than Tao Qianzhi's.
