Taiqing Sword

Chapter 24, Taking Darts

"Brother Shangguan, Miss Leng, you are back. Oh, you can really go shopping. I am about to send someone to look for you?" As soon as the two entered the door, Lin Zhan came to meet them.

Shangguan Jinghong looked at Lin Zhan: "What's the matter? Brother Lin."

Lin Zhan waved his hands and said, "It's okay, this is not the owner of the Chongwu Hall. He sent a letter to invite me to the banquet. I thought we were together. I couldn't find you everywhere. I asked the guards to find out that you were going out." Yes, let me wait."

Shangguan Jinghong was taken aback when he heard the words: "Chongwu Hall?"

Lin Zhan was a little puzzled: "Why, Brother Shangguan knows Chongwuguan?"

A hint of embarrassment appeared on Shangguan Jinghong's face: "I don't think I should go." After finishing speaking, he pulled Ning Ningxin to walk in, but was grabbed by Lin Zhan: "Hey hey~~ Don't, I will follow you The person who delivered the letter agreed, two more friends today."

Shangguan Jinghong sighed and said: "Brother Lin, you don't know something. When I was shopping with Ning Xin in the afternoon, I met someone from the Chongwu Hall. I beat him up. Now I go to eat other people's food. Not too bad."

Lin Zhan was taken aback for a moment: "Did you beat the people from Chongwuguan? Who is it?"

Shangguan Jinghong scratched his head and said, "I don't know what his name is. He's a fat man. He wanted to tease Ning Xin, but I slapped him a few times."

When Lin Zhan heard this, he laughed loudly: "Fatty? That must be Wang Dafu, the son of the owner of the palace. I was beaten up, haha."

Shangguan Jinghong didn't want to go anymore when he heard that, Lin Zhan held him back and said, "It doesn't matter, the Master Wang is an upright man, he knows his son's virtue, and he won't get angry over such a trivial matter, Brother Shangguan can just go at ease. .”

Shangguan Jinghong took a look at Ning Ningxin, but he couldn't resist Lin Zhan, so he had no choice but to agree. Lin Zhan immediately asked his servants to arrange a carriage, and they got into the carriage and rushed to the Chongwu Hall.

In the Chongwu Hall, the fat man was complaining to his father: "Father, look, your son has been beaten like this, do you care?"

The owner of the Wang Pavilion changed his face: "Get out, make troubles all day long, they didn't maim you, they have already shown mercy."

"Are you my real father? Your son has been beaten up like this. It doesn't count if he was beaten, and he insulted our Chongwu Hall."

The owner of the Wang Pavilion smiled helplessly: "Dafu, in your mind, do you think that Dad doesn't know? You still want to use aggressive methods to tell you, it's not how much face you have for Dad. Fortunately, you have a wicked heart but no guts, and you didn't do anything. It's too much, otherwise you don't know how many times you have died in this small Chongwu gym of your father. When will you be able to fight for a little bit? Let me tell you, there will be a distinguished guest in a while, so don't cause trouble for me .”

"Weiyuan Escort Bureau, Escort Lin is here!"

Master Wang got up and looked at his son: "Dafu, your Uncle Lin is here, come with me to see him."

Wang Dafu twisted his fat body and said, "I won't go, how can I see you like this?"

The owner of the pavilion Wang smiled: "You still know how to lose face, then you go to rest." After finishing speaking, he ignored Wang Dafu and went to the front hall.

Lin Zhan saw the owner Wang coming out: "Oh, brother Wang Zheng, don't come here without any problems."

Wang Zheng is the full name of the owner of the Wang Pavilion. Hearing Lin Zhan's greeting, he quickly replied: "Fortunately, if my brat doesn't get angry with me, he will be fine."

Lin Zhan laughed, and then said: "Brother Wang Zheng, let me introduce you. This is Brother Shangguan Jinghong. He once taught me my fate. I told you before that this is Miss Leng, who is a friend of Brother Shangguan. "

Wang Zheng clasped his fists together: "It's a pleasure to meet you, please hurry up."

Lin Zhan suddenly remembered what happened in the afternoon, so he asked Wang Zheng, "Is your son's injury okay?"

Wang Zheng was taken aback: "Did you hit the dog? This kid really should be taught a lesson."

Lin Zhan waved his hand: "I know this kid, and I won't touch him for your sake. Brother Shangguan beat him. This kid molested Miss Leng in the street. Fortunately, Brother Shangguan showed mercy."

As soon as Wang Zheng heard this, he immediately looked at Shangguan Jinghong embarrassedly: "This, brother Shangguan, I am really sorry to surprise Miss Leng. I also want to thank brother Shangguan for showing mercy." Lin Zhan once said to Wang Zheng When it came to robbing the darts back then, Shangguan Jinghong's skill was portrayed even more superbly.

Shangguan Jinghong was also a little embarrassed: "It's really embarrassing, very embarrassing."

Wang Zheng waved his hand and was about to say something, when another voice came from outside the door, "Prince Jin is here!"

Wang Zheng apologized to Lin Zhan, Shangguan Jinghong and the others, and walked quickly to the door: "Oh, my lord atones for my sins, and the grassroots are far away."

King Jin glanced at Wang Zheng: "Wang Zheng, although this king is no longer in the Jianghu, but at that time we were born and died, who can compare to the relationship, don't be so stiff."

Shangguan Jinghong was listening to King Jin, and it sounded very familiar. He wanted to hear the voice again, and suddenly remembered the prince Zhao Tianqi who helped the victims a few years ago. He thought, if the arrest warrant is still there, please don't arrest me Ah, unfortunately Zhao Tianqi also saw Shangguan Jinghong, said something to Wang Zheng, and then came to Shangguan Jinghong: "What a coincidence, I didn't expect you to be here."

Shangguan Jinghong laughed: "Yes, yes, I didn't expect you to come too, it's really a narrow road."

When Lin Zhan heard this, he secretly thought it was not good, could it be that Shangguan Jinghong had a feud with the prince, hey, he once saved himself, even if he was desperate to die, he had to rescue Shangguan Jinghong.

Zhao Tianqi laughed: "This is called Tianwang Huihui, which is sparse but not leaky, haha."

Shangguan was stunned for a moment: "You don't really want to arrest me, do you?"

Zhao Tianqi was expressionless, staring at Shangguan Jinghong, and laughed out loud after a while: "Haha, your wanted arrest has been revoked long ago, and your refugee map from that day was also kept in the palace by the emperor. What's important, this is the first painting by a Jianghu person to enter the palace."

Shangguan Jinghong breathed a sigh of relief: "I told you earlier, I was shocked, and I almost got out of the way."

Zhao Tianqi shook his head with a smile, and waved to Wang Zheng: "Brother Wang Zheng, do you know him?"

Wang Zheng said: "My lord, this is the lifesaver of my brother Lin Biaotou. We just met. Speaking of which, he just beat up the kid this afternoon."

Zhao Tianqi was taken aback: "Haha, this is quite like his style."

Wang Zheng was a little curious: "My lord, have you known Brother Shangguan for a long time?"

Zhao Tianqi nodded, and told everyone about the situation in Jizhou. Wang Zhengben was upright, and he admired Shangguan Jinghong even more when he heard that Shangguan Jinghong stood up for the refugees, but he made Shangguan Jinghong a little embarrassed.

Afterwards, many people came one after another. Seeing that everyone was already seated, Wang Zheng got up and said, "Everyone, let me introduce you. This person is familiar to some of you. This is Prince Jin. I have also walked on the rivers and lakes, and I am called the "King of the Righteous", and everyone must have heard of it."

As soon as everyone heard that it was the prince, they stood up one after another to greet him. Although they were all heroes in the world, they were extremely unwilling to deal with officials, and the atmosphere suddenly became much colder.

Zhao Tianqi waved his hands and said: "Heroes, you don't need to be polite. Wang Zheng and I were brothers in life and death in the past. In the court, I was a prince. In the Jianghu, everyone is a brother. There is no need to be like this. Wang Zheng and you are too. Our friendship is still worthwhile." Do you get this false gift?"

Wang Zhengyi nodded and said in praise: "Yes, yes, Brother Zhao, I will punish myself with a cup."

Zhao Tianqi smiled: "That's right, I'm really hungry, if everyone doesn't eat, I will eat first."

Wang Zheng laughed, and the atmosphere immediately eased a lot. While eating happily, Shangguan Jinghong suddenly felt a murderous aura, turned his head to look at Ning Ning Xin, and seeing Ning Ning Xin looking at him, he said quietly: "Ning Xin, I feel it. ?"

"Ah."

"Really, why don't you have a good meal?"

As soon as the words fell, a white light quickly shot towards Zhao Tianqi, Wang Zheng and others were shocked: "Protect the prince."

Although Zhao Tianqi walked through the rivers and lakes, his skill was not very high. In addition, the killer made a sudden move, and he was caught off guard. He was about to be stabbed. Shangguan Jinghong shook his head helplessly, and pointed out. The short knife fell to the ground with a sound of 'ding', the killer missed a single blow, and retreated violently.He opened his mouth and shouted a sentence that others could not understand: "%#￥*."

Others couldn't understand, but Shangguan Jinghong recognized that this person spoke the island language. As a modern youth, he naturally knew about these crimes committed in history. He immediately became angry from his heart, and with his fingers connected, the four sword qis separated Shooting at the killer's limbs: "Even a small country dares to come to our Central Plains to do evil."

Assassin martial arts has just reached the level of first-class masters, where is Shangguan Jinghong's opponent, he was hit by the sword energy immediately, his limbs limp and fell to the ground, he watched Shangguan Jinghong's attack with condensed attention, and looked around to see someone sneaking up and wanting to leave the table , without hesitation, turned into a long rainbow, and within a moment, was caught and locked by Ning Ningxin, and the key points of his body were still on the ground.

Zhao Tianqi glanced at Shangguan Jinghong gratefully, and then asked, "Who are you? Why did you kill me?"

The killer glared at Shangguan Jinghong angrily, gritted his teeth and stuck out half of his tongue, and committed suicide, as did the others. It was too late for Zhao Tianqi to stop him, and he sighed helplessly. It seemed hopeless to know the origin of the killer.

Shangguan Jinghong interrupted and asked, "Who have you offended recently?"

Zhao Tianqi was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

"For example, people from other countries? Or are there any enemies who have contacts with people from other countries?"

Zhao Tianqi was even more puzzled: "Why do you ask that?"

"Although I don't understand what the killer said, I know it's not the language of the Central Plains, but the language of an island country."

Zhao Tianqi was taken aback again, as if he had thought of something, but he didn't say anything, just thinking about Shangguan Jinghong cupping his hands: "Brother Shangguan, thank you for saving your life. If there is a need in the future, as long as I don't violate the court's law, I will definitely go all out." , Wang Zheng, I still have something to do to go back to the capital, so I'm leaving first." Zhao Tianqi bowed his hands to Wang Zheng and the others, and got up to leave.

Shangguan Jinghong looked at his back and reminded him: "My lord must be returning to the capital on business. Let me remind you that the people in this island country are cruel and despicable. If you fail to assassinate the lord this time, you will definitely find another opportunity. Let the family be careful."

Zhao Tianqi paused: "Thank you for the reminder." He walked away quickly, stopped at the door, turned around and came to Shangguan Jinghong, and said for a long time: "Brother Shangguan, I have a long way to go to the capital this time. Even if my martial arts skills are much higher than mine, I used to walk in the rivers and lakes and lived a life of licking blood. Life and death have long been insignificant, but my wife and children should not suffer because of me. I beg Shangguan brothers to escort my wife and children back to Beijing." After speaking, he was extremely sincere. A deep salute.

Shangguan Jinghong hurriedly stepped aside: "My lord, I am a martial artist, this..."

Zhao Tianqi sighed and said, "Hey, whatever, life and death are up to you." Then he turned to leave.

Shangguan Jinghong took a look at Ning Xin, and walked to him with Ning Xin understanding: "You decide, I will follow you wherever you go." Shangguan Jinghong made up his mind, and said to Zhao Tianqi's back: "My lord, I don't know if I have heard of Wei Ningxin. Is there a Far Escort?"

Zhao Tianqi paused in his footsteps: "I have heard that it is said that I have never missed a dart in more than ten years."

Shangguan Jinghong pulled Lin Zhan over and said: "This is the head of the Weiyuan Escort Bureau, head of the Escort Lin, I live in the Weiyuan Escort Bureau today, and I feel uneasy because I always eat and live for free. If the prince can trust you, you can ask Weiyuan The Far Escort Bureau entrusted the escorts, so I went along with them, and it can be regarded as repaying the favor of the head of the escort Lin."

Zhao Tianqi turned his head abruptly: "Thank you, Boss Lin, can this dart be picked up?"

Lin Zhan glanced at Shangguan Jinghong, and said to Zhao Tianqi, "I will never refuse to die."

Zhao Tianqi was overjoyed: "Okay, I'll let my family pack their bags right away and leave tonight."

Shangguan Jinghong did this, firstly because he really wanted to repay favors, and secondly because he had always been worried about the incident of robbing the darts back then, and wanted to help Lin Zhan climb up the big tree of King Jin, so that walking darts would save a lot of trouble in the future .

After watching Zhao Tianqi leave, Shangguan Jinghong said: "Brother Lin, we will also go to prepare."

Lin Zhanwang was grateful to Shangguan Jinghong. He knew why Shangguan Jinghong did this: "Brother Shangguan, it's really..." Before Hua finished speaking, Shangguan Jinghong interrupted: "Brother Lin, this time I'm going to be a deputy. Escort head, ask Big Brother Mu to be my bodyguard master, and I will also try to be the head of the bodyguard, haha."

After hearing this, Lin Zhan nodded in agreement and stopped being polite, and hurriedly said goodbye to Wang Zheng and the others. Just as he was about to leave, a fat man ran out from the backyard with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and hid beside Wang Zheng: "Father, it's him, he's the one who beat me. .”

Wang Zheng glanced at Shangguan Jinghong in embarrassment: "Go back to me, it's a disgrace."

Shangguan Jinghong glanced at Lin Zhan, and the two looked at each other and laughed loudly: "Fatty, I apologize to you, but you must stop doing those immoral things in the future, otherwise the wisdom of Chongwuguan will be ruined in your hands. "

Wang Zheng glanced at the fat man: "Dafu, thank you Uncle Shangguan for showing mercy."

The fat man stared wide-eyed: "Uncle...uncle?"

The crowd laughed again.
