Qixia town catches the gods, patrolling the streets will become stronger

Chapter 162 Peak Duel, Meeting Wushuang Again

Yan Ming put down the teacup and looked up. The middle-aged man was smiling modestly and dressed gorgeously, like a manager of a rich family.

Looking outside over his shoulder, there are still several cars parked outside, carrying goods and boxes.

Yan Ming didn't know anyone in the capital, if the Gongmen were removed, then Li Yanbei would be the only one.

Yanming helped Li Yanbei last time, and after the other party returned, he also sent people to send thank you gifts many times.

After all, besides being rich, Li Yanbei is also rich, and he is the best at expressing his gratitude in this way.

What's more, after that, Yan Butou's reputation grew day by day, Li Yanbei of course wanted to seize this opportunity to build a good relationship with Yan Ming.

It's just that the most important thing Yan Ming lacks is money. The first few times Li Yanbei sent gold and silver, Yan Ming asked the other party to take them back the same way.

Up to now, Yan Ming has no obsession with gold and silver.

After all, with his current strength, as long as he nods, countless people will come to give money in a steady stream, and the fear is that he will not accept it.

In the future, Li Yanbei will no longer send money, but send some goods, or strange things.

Sometimes when Yan Ming is in a good mood, he will accept some of it.

But regardless of whether it was possible or not, Li Yanbei continued to give it away, showing great hospitality.

Anyway, Li Yanbei also understands what he thinks, as long as the things are delivered, no matter whether Yan Ming receives them or not, he can feel his heart, that's enough.

It seems that Li Yanbei's stuff has arrived this time.

Seeing Yanming looking outside, the steward hurriedly took out the gift list with great insight and handed it to Yanming.

Taking it over and taking a glance, Yan Ming felt that Li Yanbei was really generous. This time, the things he sent included silk from Qianqiaozhuang, tea leaves from Miaowufeng, and stuff from Surprise Pavilion...

Anyway, it looks pretty fancy.

"My master asked me to greet Yan Butou. In addition, when Yan Butou arrives in the capital, please be sure to tell my master with Shangmian."

The steward's smile grew wider.

Yan Ming couldn't help wondering: "Who told you that I'm going to the capital?"

"It's just my master's guess. I heard that there is a shortage of manpower in the capital, and the higher-ups want to transfer Yan Tutou to Beijing. In addition, the capital has been relatively lively recently. My master thought that Yan Tutou might be interested."

Yan Ming didn't know what he said, but since Li Yanbei said so, it probably wouldn't be groundless.As a big man in the capital, he must have his own special information channel, and it is normal to get some inside information. It is not a day or two that the six doors really want to transfer him away.

But what's going on in the capital?At the feet of the Son of Heaven, no one will make trouble, right?

Seeing Yanming's curious expression, the manager explained in time.

"It seems that you are too busy guarding the people, Yan Butou, to hear about this incident. Not long ago, Ximen Chuuxue of Wanmei Villa had agreed to a decisive battle with Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City, in the capital."

"Wow, isn't that a rare peak duel?"

Guo Furong, who was sweeping the floor, also came over and was excited.

Just as he was talking, Bai Zhantang came in from the outside with a new issue of Jianghu Monthly.

"Big news, Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng are going to have a decisive battle!"

It seems that he also just got the news.

Yan Ming took a look at Jianghu Monthly, and sure enough, there were huge characters on the first page, and almost all of the rest were reporting on this matter.

It was the first time for everyone to see news of this length. Even Murongzi's special report for Yanming last time did not have such a posture.

It seems that the news should be true.

Both Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng were long-established figures in the Jianghu, and they were the two top peaks in kendo at that time.

Regarding the strength of Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng, there have been endless debates in the Jianghu, but there has been no result.

Now that these two top figures are going to have a showdown, how can it not be exciting?

It seems that as soon as this news comes out, it will soon overwhelm Yan Ming's latest news.

What's more, everyone in Jianghu also understands that Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng are people who are passionate and devoted to the way of the sword. Their duel will definitely not be a small fight like ordinary warriors, otherwise it will not be a fight. For so many years, they have never met each other.

Because the two of them also know that as long as they fight, it will be a matter of life and death.

Two people, two swords, there can only be one winner after all.

This not only means that the No. 1 Kendo of the world will be determined, but also means that there will be one less great master, which is a major event that will affect the situation of the world.

For example, Ye Gucheng is the chief guest official of the Pingnan Palace, if something happens to him, it will be a major blow to the strength of the Pingnan Palace.

A fight between great masters is rare, let alone a life-and-death duel that involves a lot?

No wonder the steward just said that the capital is busy, but if you think about it, you can tell that there must have been countless good-natured people flocking to the capital.

For a moment, Guo Furong, Bai Zhantang and others seemed to see the current grand occasion in the capital, and they couldn't help being fascinated.

"By the way, what is your master doing now?"

Yan Ming suddenly thought of something and asked.

If he remembered correctly, Li Yanbei would not be able to sit still in this turmoil.

He used dozens of mansions in the capital under his name as bets, and he gambled heavily on this matter with Du Tongxuan, who was also a wealthy man in the capital.

Sure enough, the steward said.

"My master made a bet with someone, and he has bet all his wealth on Ximen Chuuxue's victory!"

When he said this, the steward seemed very proud.

really!

Yan Ming thought in his heart.

Logically speaking, Li Yanbei made the right bet, and the final winner was indeed Ximen Chuuxue, but before the result came out, he lost confidence and dared not bet to the end, and still lost his fortune.

"How can your master overwhelm Ximen Chuuxue? I still prefer the strength of Baiyun City Lord!"

Guo Furong spoke beside her.

"Xiao Guo, it's because you don't understand, it's obvious that Ximen Chuuxue has a better chance of winning!" Bai Zhantang raised an objection.

"It must be the Lord Baiyun. His Flying Immortal is already the highest attainment in swordsmanship. When I was in Beijing, my father praised it more than once!"

Guo Furong is not to be outdone.

"Although the Flying Immortal Beyond Heaven is strong, it is impossible for him to defeat Ximen Chuuxue..."

After a few words, Bai Zhantang started arguing with Guo Furong.

"What are you doing, what are you doing, why are you still arguing?" Tong Xiangyu rushed over and stopped the two of them.

Even Bai Zhantang and Guo Furong could quarrel over this matter, so one can imagine how far the debate has gone outside.

Yan Ming couldn't help recalling the last time he met Ximen Chuuxue.

But in comparison, Yan Ming's focus is still different from others.

According to the original plot, the duel between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng was actually a cover. The Ye Gucheng who appeared on the night of the full moon was fake, while the real Ye Gucheng was cooperating with Prince Pingnan's attempt to usurp the throne!
In this world, Ye Gucheng also has a deep relationship with the Hepingnan Palace, and even the Black Lotus Sect is involved. Presumably this duel is also not so simple.

Yan Ming already had a guess in his mind.

Recently, although he has not left in Qixia Town, and Qixia Town is also a peaceful scene, in fact, Yan Ming has heard more than once from the mouths of Jianghu people who come and go, that the outside world has become more and more chaotic .

Bandits and bandits from all walks of life continued to wreak havoc, and the relationship between the imperial court and the Southern King began to become increasingly tense.

Although the two sides did not deal with each other before, they still maintained a superficial harmony and did not tear their face apart.

But in the end, Nan Wangfu has repeatedly failed to give face to the court, and has been aggressive in many things. The people under him have also had several frictions with the court, and they seem to be testing the bottom line.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Yan Ming, but considering the decisive battle between the two sides, Yan Ming guessed that King Pingnan and his son should take action.

In addition to the excitement in the capital, there should be undercurrents surging.

"Yan catcher?"

The steward was next to him, holding a gift list in his hand to remind him.

Yan Ming withdrew his thoughts and thought about it. After all, he and Li Yanbei also had a little friendship, and he still couldn't bear to watch him jump into the fire pit, so he might as well remind him a little bit.

"You take this gift back. I accept it with all my heart, but I told Li Yanbei to take it back for me."

When the manager heard that Yan Ming didn't want anything, he was a little disappointed like the previous few times, but then he heard that Yan Ming had a message, and immediately cheered up.

"Go back and tell Li Yanbei that I will gamble with him too. I bet that he doesn't have the courage to bet with Du Tongxuan to the end, and he will probably give up halfway. If he can win, I will treat him to a good drink."

Yan Ming said with a half-smile.

I can't explain it too clearly, knowing that Li Yanbei is a gambler by nature, so I simply use this method to provoke him.

"This……"

The steward was full of doubts, he couldn't figure out what Yan Tutou meant, the bet was a bit inexplicable, but since it was the other party's intention, he obediently nodded and agreed.

"Don't worry, Yan Butou, I will definitely bring the message verbatim when I go back."

Knowing that Yan Ming had made up his mind not to accept the gift, he didn't bother much, and left immediately.

Looking back, Bai Zhantang was still arguing with Guo Furong while Tong Xiangyu was not paying attention.

"Ximen Chuuxue is stronger!"

"City Master Ye's Heavenly Flying Immortal is invincible!"

Seeing that the two looked like treasures, Yan Ming smiled slightly, and turned to look at Lu Xiucai behind the counter.

"Xiu Cai, how are you doing recently? Has there been any progress with Xiao Guo?" Yan Ming also gossiped.

Xiucai looked at Xiao Guo, and then walked out from the counter.

"Yan Butou, you have to help me..."

Lu Xiucai immediately recounted the current situation.

He thought before that Yan Ming was interested in Xiao Guo, and even regarded Yan Ming as an imaginary enemy for a while, and was very wary.

But after observation, he found that Yan Ming had no interest in interacting with Guo Furong except occasionally, so he gradually let go of his guard, and now he poured bitter water on Yan Ming.

After hearing what Lu Xiucai had said, Yan Ming realized that his relationship with Guo Furong had become stuck recently.

Since Lu Xiucai had shown off a few times before, Guo Furong was not as indifferent to him as before, and would not refuse some of his overtures, with a somewhat ambiguous attitude.

But after a long time, it's not okay to stay in this state all the time. Things like feelings are like sailing against the current. If there is no progress, it is a bit dangerous.

Lu Xiucai also knew this truth, but he couldn't think of any solution. Sometimes he mustered up the courage to go further, and Guo Furong came over without saying a word...

Listening to Lu Xiucai's complaint, Yan Ming lowered his head slightly, probably understanding.

At present, it seems that Lu Xiucai has no bad feelings towards him because of his previous performances, but it is still difficult to go further. Guo Furong's character is so strong, and Lu Xiucai is very dull. It doesn't look like there will be a breakthrough in the relationship. look.

Having said that, he remembered that in the original plot, the promotion of the relationship between the two was actually an external crisis.Only in the midst of the accident can we see the sincerity and warm up the relationship between the two.

Thinking of this, Yan Ming was still a little ashamed, because strictly speaking, this also had something to do with him.

He was so good at fighting, he eliminated all dangerous people in advance, and did not threaten Tongfu Inn at all, so the two of them had no chance to go further.

After finishing speaking, Lu Xiucai's face became even more sad.

"I have to think of a way quickly, you don't know the head of Yan, the situation is very dangerous recently!"

"Dangerous? What's the danger? Can someone get in between you and Xiao Guo?" Yan Ming joked.

But as soon as the words fell, Ling Tengyun walked in with a knife.

Now Ling Tengyun was dressed in the costume of a small policeman, but he felt a little happy when he looked at it.

It stands to reason that Ling Tengyun has the background of the Ling family, and is usually called Ling Butou. It is impossible to be a grassroots policeman. It is completely against the rules.

It's just that he didn't pay so much attention, he just wanted to continue to experience the experience in Qixia Town, and he took the initiative to apply to start as a policeman, and this scene happened.

Ling Tengyun's own strength is not weak, and he is also handsome, coupled with his considerable background, he soon became acquainted in the fields of Qixia Town, whether it is ordinary people or wealthy merchants, they all compete to develop with him. Relationship.

As soon as he entered, Bai Zhantang shut up, stopped arguing with Guo Furong, and took the initiative to hide in the backyard.

Although Bai Zhantang already holds the gold medal of exoneration, every time he sees Ling Tengyun, he is still very awkward and always feels uneasy.

It was Guo Furong who took the initiative to greet Ling Tengyun.

"Ling Butou, what would you like to drink today?"

"Don't call him Butou, just call him Bukuai, just like Yan Butou, drink tea."

"Okay, the teapot is over there, pour it yourself, I'm busy now."

Guo Furong pointed to the table.

But it was such a simple communication that immediately made Ling Tengyun extremely excited.

When he was at home, he was an idol-level figure in the nearby ten miles and eight towns. When he went out, he was chased and intercepted by a group of nympho girls.

In Qixia Town, especially Tongfu Inn, it feels less attention.

"Miss Guo, you must keep it in the future, don't treat your forehead as a handsome guy, you must be as indifferent as you want, and don't like your forehead."

Ling Tengyun said with the same accent as Tong Xiangyu.

"Is there something wrong with you?" Guo Furong looked at him with disgust.

"Miss Guo, do you have anything to help, please see if it's okay..."

The more Ling Tengyun was like this, the more energetic he became, and he took the initiative to approach Guo Furong.Lu Xiucai, who saw all this in his eyes, was full of pain, and pointed at Ling Tengyun and said to Yan Ming.

"Yan Butou, you take care of him, if you pester Furong every day, if it is true..."

Before Lu Xiucai finished speaking, another person walked in at the door of the inn.

Looking at her figure, she was a woman, and she was a Jianghu woman. She was dressed in black, wearing a black gauze hat, and holding a weapon in her hand.

Of course, for the children of Jianghu, Tongfu Inn has seen a lot.

Bai Zhantang hid in the backyard, and Guo Furong was about to take the initiative to greet him.

Ling Tengyun rushed to help first: "Eh, come on, is this guest officer going to be a top student or staying in a hotel?"

"Eat something first."

As soon as the woman's words came out of her mouth, they were very familiar to Yan Ming's ears.

Yan Ming suddenly turned his head, looked at her, and called out tentatively: "Wu Shuang, why are you here?"

This woman is Zhu Wushuang from the Sunflower School.
