Chapter 42

In the dusk, Lin Pingzhi walked across a street holding a sword.The breeze blew through his hair and creaked a wooden signboard on the street.Lin Pingzhi glanced at it, then walked over.

This is a hotel!
The strange thing is that at this time, the sky will be dark, but the door of this store is closed, and it doesn't look like a business at all.

As soon as he walked to the door, before he put his hand on the door, there was a voice from inside.

"Friends outside the door...you'd better not come in."

Lin Pingzhi stopped, this was the first time he had encountered such a weird thing, there were hotels that did not allow guests to enter.

"Is this an inn?" he asked, taking two steps back.

"Yes..." The voice from inside sounded faintly.

"Then why can't I come in?" Lin Pingzhi asked lightly.

"Because...we don't do business with strangers at night!"

Lin Pingzhi suddenly smiled: "This is interesting. Could it be that you don't make money when you look at it? I'm a high-roller, and money is definitely not a problem..."

He didn't believe that people who put up a sign to do business would refuse money.

The inside said: "Are you rich? I don't believe it."

Lin Pingzhi sighed slightly: "Could it be that I didn't speak clearly enough?"

The person inside said: "If you have money, you can find a bigger, better and more comfortable hotel, why bother to enter this door!"

Lin Pingzhi said slightly: "I'm just curious!"

"What are you curious about?" the person inside asked.

"When you open a shop, you are only looking for money. How can a businessman reject customers?" Lin Pingzhi asked strangely.

The voice inside sounded faintly, with a hint of coldness: "Could it be that I didn't speak clearly enough? We don't do business with strangers at night."

Lin Pingzhi laughed and said: "I don't think your Excellency is a person who is afraid of getting into trouble, how can there be such rules? Could it be that...you can't let other people know about your business at night?"

"Ugh……"

The person inside sighed: "My friend, why are you so curious? Could it be that you don't know that the most important thing is to control your eyes and mouth when you are in the world?"

Lin Pingzhi smiled and said, "But I not only like to watch, but also like to talk about it. What should I do?"

The person inside said with a strange smile: "Hey... Since my friend has such thoughts, why not open the door and come in to have a look."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was no sound inside, and the silence was so depressing!
"it is good!"

Lin Pingzhi stepped forward, put his hand on the door, and gently pushed it open, he raised his foot and was ready to go in.He was about to cross the threshold with his right foot when, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a bright light.

That light is so glaring, the dense white light makes people feel an astonishing chill from a long distance away.

After training like a horse, he saw a knife behind the light!

One of his feet was inside the door and the other was outside the door. The person who made the saber obviously grasped the timing very well, and he was sure that he would swing the saber very swiftly at this moment.

At such a critical time, Lin Pingzhi's feet did not move, his body did not move, his hand moved, and he had already drawn his sword!
Once his hand draws the sword, there is no suspense.The edge of the sword flits faster than the falling knife.The long knife was released from his hand, and the blade had already sliced ​​across the man's throat, a ferocious head flew into the sky, and immediately saw a cloud of blood flying.

"How courageous!" A startled and angry voice sounded.

"Ha ha……"

Lin Pingzhi smiled and walked away, and then saw the situation behind the door.There were five tables in the small shop, and only three tables were occupied by people. A lamp was lit on each table, and the dim light illuminated everyone's expressions clearly.

And at the table above, there was a person standing up with a long body, the shock and anger on his face were still there, it was obvious that he was the one who had been talking to Lin Pingzhi.

"You guys don't seem to be doing serious business!" He gently put the sword back into its sheath and hugged it in his arms.

Lin Pingzhi looked at the three tables.

There were only three people at the first table, except for the middle-aged man standing there, and two old men.One was wearing gray-yellow cloth and looked ordinary, while the other was holding a bong in his hand, smoking it rattling.

At the second table, a man in a bamboo hat sat with an indifferent expression on his face.

At the third table sat a young man in a white robe, gentle and gentle, like a frail scholar.He has a smile on his face, he is not an ugly person, when he smiles, it is easier to make people feel good about him!

"My friend, what a fast sword... With such amazing swordsmanship, he must not be an anonymous person, should you show your name?" The middle-aged man said coldly.

Lin Pingzhi said: "I am just an unknown person, and I have no name in the Jianghu!"

snort!
The middle-aged man snorted coldly and said, "At my friend's age, and with such amazing swordsmanship, how can he resist not being famous?"

Lin Pingzhi said indifferently: "So what if you are famous? So what if you are not famous? I am still me, why should others judge me!"

The middle-aged man said: "Being able to say this shows that my friend is an extremely confident person, no wonder he dared to enter my door."

"Your place is not a dragon's pond or a tiger's lair. Why don't I dare to enter? Besides, I have feet growing on my body. No one else can control me where I want to go!"

The middle-aged man said with a strange smile: "Hehe... Although my place is not a dragon's pond or a tiger's lair, it is a hell of death. Even if you have a good swordsmanship, you shouldn't come in!"

Lin Pingzhi said: "I don't believe it!"

The middle-aged man said: "Aren't you curious about what business I do at night? I'll tell you now..."

He clapped his hands on the table, and his body jumped up.He seems to be physically strong, but he didn't expect to have exquisite lightness skills, and he spanned several feet with just one leap!
He stretched out a hand in mid-air!

The hands are not good-looking, the knuckles are thick and covered with calluses, just like the hands of an old farmer who has been doing rough work all year round!

But Lin Pingzhi knew that this hand was not only used for rough work all year round, but it was used for deadly work!Because he has already seen that this rough hand has now become the size of a cattail fan, the palm is as red as blood, and it also exudes a rusty smell!

The people at the other three tables looked at him coldly, with no expression on their faces.

Lin Pingzhi has drawn his sword!

Once he draws his sword, others will have no way out!A flash of sword light flashed, a hand fell down, and then the middle-aged man who rushed forward stopped still!

Even if he wants to move, he will never move in his life!

Lin Pingzhi's sword had pierced his throat, and the tip of the sword emerged from the back of his neck!No one can move with a sword pierced through the throat!
"Why... people in this world, no matter how good their skills are, can have such confidence?"

Lin Pingzhi sighed lightly, his words and face were full of doubts!

"Because... Sufficient confidence is the key to accomplishing something! Kung Fu is secondary..." The old man smoking a pipe said slowly.

Lin Pingzhi said with a smile: "That's no wonder...everyone thinks that they can achieve things with confidence, but they often ignore their own abilities!"

The old man smoking a pipe sighed: "Yes! It's a pity that he not only underestimated you, but also overestimated himself!"

Lin Pingzhi said indifferently: "I killed him, does the old man not want to avenge him?"

The old man smoking a pipe looked at him in surprise, as if he had heard something surprising.

"I'm just sitting at the same table with him, and I'm not his father. What does it matter to me whether he dies or not?"

"Exactly...I didn't sit at the same table with him, and I'm not his brother or friend, so I have no reason to avenge him!" The young man who looked like a scholar laughed.

At this time, he was still smiling, as if you could find a smile on his face at any time!

"I kill people for money, and I never do business that loses money!" The man with the bamboo hat said coldly.

The old man smoking a pipe said indifferently: "The one sitting here didn't come for money! He is just a middleman, and the higher authorities will naturally send someone to come after he dies! It's up to the higher authorities to take revenge, why should we worry about it!"

"A middleman...? It seems that what you are doing is an ancient business." Lin Pingzhi already understood the tricks of this business.There are many middlemen in many industries, but there is often only one middleman who does not need capital!
