Legend of the Heroes of the Southern Kingdom

Chapter 20
The boy in white didn't know the reason, so he asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

"I, I lost my purse." Li Wenxuan looked very anxious, and felt all over the places on his body that could hold the purse with both hands.

The boy in white said: "Don't worry, think about it carefully, if it fell somewhere."

"By the way! It must have fallen in the tea shop! I'll go back and look for it." After saying that, Li Wenxuan turned around and was about to go back.

"Don't go yet." The boy in white yelled, "Go back now, even if you find the money bag, it will be dark. Why don't you stay in this city tonight. You can ride my white horse and go back to see Look, even if I can't find it, I still have some rich silver on me, and I can lend you some."

Li Wenxuan was moved by the generosity of the young man in white, so he said: "I offended you before, and you not only ignored the past, but also willing to help me, I feel really sorry."

The boy in white turned his face away, and said, "Who said that you have never forgotten the past? That account will be settled with you sooner or later. I only help you because you have helped me."

Li Wenxuan smiled helplessly, and said: "Okay, but do you dare to ask your brother's name?" Li Wenxuan had already asked the name of the boy in white on the road before, but the boy in white didn't want to answer.

The boy in white pondered for a moment, then slowly replied: "Qiu Shan."

"Oh, Qiu Shan, what a strange name." Li Wenxuan said to himself.

"What does my name have to do with you?" Although Li Wenxuan's voice was small, Qiu Shan still heard it.

"Sorry, I don't mean anything else, I just said it casually..." Li Wenxuan explained.

"You don't need to say more, it's useless if you say it, let me ask you, when is your birthday?" Qiu Shan asked.

The boy in white suddenly asked his birthday. Although Li Wenxuan felt strange, he knew that Qiu Shan's temper was moody, and he didn't want to get angry with him anymore, so he honestly told Qiu Shan his birthday.

Qiu Shan said again: "You and I are the same year, you are on June [-]th, I am March [-]th, three months older than you, you have to call Brother Qiu from now on, understand?"

"Oh." Li Wenxuan responded casually.

"Let's go, find an inn first." After saying that, Qiu Shan turned around and left, throwing the reins of the horse into Li Wenxuan's hands.

Li Wenxuan was stunned for a moment, and wanted to say something more, but seeing Qiu Shan walking away, he had no choice but to lead the big white horse and follow behind.

In the early years, Luzhou City was a place where guests traveling from south to north must pass through, and it was quite prosperous.The largest inn in the city is called "Sifang Inn". The inn is a small three-story building, facing a busy street, and leaning against a residential alley behind.Li Wenxuan followed Qiu Shan all the way, and then entered this "Sifang Inn." The waiter took the white horse to the backyard to feed the fodder, and Qiu Shan asked for two adjacent rooms on the second floor, because both of them were quite tired today. After dinner, they went back to their rooms to rest.

In the middle of the night, a gust of cool wind opened the window of Li Wenxuan's house, so Li Wenxuan woke up.The many things that happened during the day are now coming to Li Wenxuan's mind one by one: the shopkeeper and his daughter, I hope they will never encounter such villains like today again in the future.Will the three golden men who were stabbed to death turn into ghosts to haunt him?And... there is Qiu Shan who has a weird temper. He seems to be unreasonable, but he is a warm-hearted and kind person, but he always feels that there are some indescribable mysteries.If I tell my father all these things after I go home, my father will praise me, or scold me for killing someone, even though it was a golden man.Tie Ling'er confessed that she must rush back at night. At this time, is she still not asleep, worrying about herself, or thinking about herself?

The night was extremely quiet, and Li Wenxuan gradually became a little tired again, like sleeping but not sleeping, like a dream but not a dream, he heard a burst of close footsteps in the dimness, the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and when they reached his door, they suddenly stopped down.Li Wenxuan looked out sleepily, and the faint moonlight illuminated a few slightly shaking figures on the door paper, as well as the cold shadow of a knife.

Li Wenxuan woke up suddenly, got out of bed with his clothes on, and held Qingshuang in his hand. "Presumably these people must have come because of the day's events." Li Wenxuan thought so.Escape through the back window, explain to your face, or rush out?Li Wenxuan hesitated, when a deep voice outside the room said: "Go in later, just hack and kill, no one will be left alive, don't forget, a head costs 100 taels, don't give me pustules for a while."

Li Wenxuan gasped, he didn't expect that these people would take his life regardless of the reason, and he might be able to escape, but Qiu Shan next door must still be asleep, if he was attacked by these people, it would be difficult to survive.Li Wenxuan couldn't care less, if he hesitated, he was afraid that Qiu Shan's life would be lost, so he went to the door lightly, and kicked a black figure fiercely, "Kacha—","Ouch—" Following the sound that broke the silence, a man in black fell down from the second floor together with the door panel.

Li Wenxuan took a glance, and there were thirteen or four masked men in black ambushing outside the door of himself and Qiu Shan, and there were vaguely shadows moving downstairs.These men in black seemed a little surprised by Li Wenxuan's sudden attack.Li Wenxuan didn't have time to think about it any more. Taking advantage of the opponent's lack of reaction, he swiped two swords and picked out the two men in black. They fell on the floor downstairs one after another. At the same time, Li Wenxuan was also shouting loudly: " Brother Qiu! Get up! Brother Qiu! Get up! Someone is going to kill you and me."

At this time, the men in black also came back to their senses, and one of them shouted: "Both sides go up together, chop him up! The rest of you, go and kill the one in the house." As soon as the words fell, five or six people from the left and right turned to him together. Li Wenxuan rushed over.

Li Wenxuan was worried about Qiu Shan, and had no intention of fighting with these people. He jumped lightly and stepped on the corridor outside the door. A swallow jumped past the people in front of him, and a long sword went straight to a person who was about to kick the door of Qiu Shan's room. The man stabbed him, but the man only knew that Li Wenxuan was surrounded by his companions, he didn't expect to suddenly appear behind him, and without the slightest dodge, he was pierced through the shoulder by Li Wenxuan, followed by a scream.

"Brother Qiu! Run away from the back window quickly, I will block you first!" Li Wenxuan stabbed Qiu Shan's door left and right with a long sword, and kept calling Qiu Shan, but there was no sound in the room. Strange, but I don't have time to check it out.

"Since you are in a hurry to seek death, my brother will send you to see Lord Yan first." After finishing speaking, the people on both sides surrounded Li Wenxuan more and more tightly, and they passed Li Wenxuan every time.

Li Wenxuan was already in a dilemma, worrying, when suddenly there were several screams from downstairs, and those vague figures he saw just now fell to the ground in response. "Jump down! Hurry up!" Qiu Shan's voice came from the darkness.

"Okay!" Seeing Qiu Shan suddenly appearing downstairs, Li Wenxuan was surprised and pleasantly surprised. He jumped lightly and jumped towards the direction of Qiu Shan's voice.Naturally, the men in black upstairs would not give up like this, and they all jumped down, but their lightness skills were not as good as Li Wenxuan, and they all fell behind Li Wenxuan.

As soon as Li Wenxuan landed, he felt a cluster of hidden weapons flying by, and immediately behind him were all kinds of shouts: "Alas—", "My feet", "What the fuck", "Ah! ——", "I'm going to chop you up"... The men in black who jumped down with Li Wenxuan fell to the ground one after another.

"Hurry up!" In the darkness, Qiu Shan grabbed Li Wenxuan's wrist, pulled him and ran out of the store. The big white horse was already waiting outside the door. The two got on the horse together. Qiu Shan urged the horse to gallop, and disappeared in a short time into the night.
