Chapter 40

Only three kilometers away from Zhongdu, Xiao Zhi and his team encountered the first round of interceptions.

The killer was no different from the one he met in Chengtian Temple.

A move is a killer move, a move that takes people's lives, just like a group of Yamas who are demanding their lives.

Fortunately, Xiao Zhi had been prepared long ago, and everyone who followed him was experienced in many battles.

They drew their knives at the same time, and their aura suddenly changed.

Ping ping pong!The two forces are facing each other with swords and swords.

"kill!"

After a while, a dozen or so people lay down on the ground, the ground was stained red with blood, and there was a strong smell of blood in the air.

"Ah - I'm fighting with you!"

In the shadow of swords and swords, the fat cook took down the ancestral sword from his waist, moved his huge and surprisingly flexible body, and slashed at the black-clothed killer while howling.

The scene was once in chaos.

After a long time, Xiao Zhi withdrew his sword with all his blood, with a chilling sternness in his eyes.

Liu Feng pressed in a low voice, "Those people are too impatient. We haven't left Zhongdu completely yet, the killers are here, queuing up to reincarnate."

Qian Han agrees.

There was coldness between Xiao Zhi's brows, and his face was as cold as snow that hadn't melted for a thousand years on a cold mountain.

"Liufeng, send someone to send the head back."

"Remember, send it after midnight."

Liufeng's eyes lit up, and he said cheerfully, "Your subordinate will arrange it now."

Coming and going is a courtesy, as it should be.

The next day, Mingguang Palace.

When the Empress Dowager Yin opened her eyes and saw a few bloody human heads hanging above her head, she was so frightened that her face turned ashen, her mind went blank and she yelled loudly.

"what--"

"Come on! Come on..."

After all, he dragged his limp body to the side.

In panic, he touched a fluffy and sticky round object.

Looking down, it was still a human head.

This one is even more frightening, the eyes are so wide open that they are actually dead.

"Ah—" There was another shrill cry.

Frightened, he rolled his eyes and passed out.

The Queen Mother fainted from shock, and the news spread quickly in the imperial city.

When the prince heard the news, he ate half a bowl of rice happily.

"It seems that the old hag has angered Jinzhi."

After eating the big melon, issue a series of instructions.

"...The Yin family has been going so smoothly these past few years, and I feel unbalanced when I look at it, so you can figure it out."

The Empress Dowager Yin has pampered and pampered her for many years. Even if she killed people like hemp, she would let the people below do it. Suddenly seeing so many heads, she fell ill in panic.

When she recovered her health, several juniors of the Yin family who she was proud of were crippled, and a lot of minions were lost, and the expression on her angry face was so ferocious.

"What a Xiao Shizi! I will not share the sky with you." Empress Dowager Yin's eyes overflowed with undisguised viciousness.

In the corner, Director Meng narrowed his eyes to suppress the waves in his eyes, his face was still flattered.
-
Time turned, and soon it was the day before the Nine Emperors Meeting.

The second room of the Shen family was doing the final preparations before setting up the stall.

Two boxes of folding fans, and a room full of exquisite flower baskets... Chongyang cake is something to eat, freshness is the most important thing, Li Xiuniang plans to make it in the early morning.

"I'll go to bed early tonight, I have to get up early tomorrow, and I have to work all day, I can't sleep well and feel refreshed." Shen Er said.

Li Xiuniang covered the ingredients prepared in advance to make the Double Ninth Cake, and then urged, "Yes, go back to your room."

The little ones looked at each other and went back to their rooms.

At night, the whole village fell silent.

A night without dreams.

When Shen Nian opened his eyes, the sky was still not bright.

Hearing the rustling sound from the kitchen, her drowsiness disappeared and she simply woke up.

After a brief wash, he walked towards the kitchen.

Li Xiuniang was busy with her work, she was stunned when she saw Shen Nian, and said: "Why do you get up so early, you go back to sleep for a while, I'm busy today."

"Don't sleep anymore, I'll light the fire." Shen Nian sat down and added some firewood to the stove.

Not long after, Shen Gan and the others also got up, and together with Shen Er, they moved things to the carriage.

After Li Xiuniang made the Double Ninth Cake, the family packed their bellies and rushed to the county under the misty sky.

About half an hour later.

Outside the city, there are already merchants setting up stalls at the foot of Cuishan Mountain, but there are only a few of them.

I guess it's because it's still early.

Cuishan is a mountain with high ornamental value. It is full of lush greenery and wild flowers. After climbing up, there are magnificent waterfalls. The mountain is not dangerous. Many people climb the mountain every Double Ninth Festival.

The foot of the mountain is wide, and after all the vendors have come, a small market will be formed, which is very lively.

It is a scene in Longyang County.

Shen Nian looked around with his excellent eyesight, pointed to a location, and said, "Father, mother, let's go over there."

Shen Er and the others saw that the location was really good, so they drove there in a carriage.

A few ropes were tied between the two trees, and a large oilcloth was fixed in the middle, and slots were made on the oilcloth, and flower baskets and bamboo fans of different sizes were placed in the slots.

This is for display.

In front of the oilcloth, a wooden shelf about the size of a bed is stretched out, with flower baskets and bamboo fans on the left, dogwood in the middle, and Chongyang cakes with excellent appearance on the right.

After setting it up, Shen Kun looked at it again and again, and nodded in satisfaction, "It really stands out after doing this, and I am more and more confident in making money. Sister, your way is really good."

Shen Nian was proud, "Of course. If you want to do business well, the stall must stand out first, otherwise who would know about us."

Shen Gan and the others nodded with a look of instruction.

Indeed it is.

At dawn, Cuishan gradually became lively.

... Voices came one after another, and the festive atmosphere was strong.

Shen Qian and Shen Kun sold wild game once, so they had some experience. The two brothers looked at each other and shouted loudly.

"Take a look, take a look, the beautiful flower baskets and bamboo fans, and the delicious Double Ninth Cake..."

"I bought a flower basket to give away dogwood, everyone, come and see, there is no charge for watching the excitement."

When a group of people dressed as scholars heard this unique peddling, they felt amused and came over.

The layout that catches the eye is eye-catching.

Looking at the wildly interesting flower baskets, I think this family is quite ingenious.

The handsome scholar in the lead chose a flower basket, "I want this."

Finally opened, Shen Kun looked overjoyed, "Master, you have good eyesight, 10 coins per flower basket, one price for the whole audience, buy first, pick first."

This man looked like he was not short of money, and he gave the book boy behind him a look, and the book boy paid the money honestly.

At this moment, Shen Nian opened a bamboo fan, and said eloquently: "Young master, there are also these fans, all made by hand, each one is unique, buy one and hold it in your hand, I guarantee that your personal charm will be improved by two." Times, the elders praised it when they saw it, and the girl fell in love with it, how about it, do you want to buy one?"

When Wen Chengan heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry.

"You've already talked about this. If I don't buy it, it's not that I don't know what's good or bad."

After speaking, I chose one.

The fan is hollowed out, and when it is opened, it is a silhouette of a mythical beast, which is not only elegant but also full of fun.

"It's not bad." Wen Chengan opened it, took a look, and said with a smile.
