Legend of the Heroes of the Southern Kingdom

Chapter 313 Middle-aged

Li Wenxuan turned around and saw that Li Baoshan had already chased after him, so he was not in a hurry, anyway, his lightness kung fu was far better than him, so he just waited for Li Baoshan to walk in, and then suddenly jumped from Li Baoshan and another arrester through the middle.

Seeing Li Wenxuan rushing towards them, the two wanted to raise their knives to intercept them, but they were a step slower, watching Li Wenxuan pass by under their noses.

Li Wenxuan did not get away directly, but ran to the side of the two of their mounts first. After a short time, the Qingshuang sword was unsheathed and then put back into the sheath. There was a cold light, and the reins of the two mounts were caught by this one. The green light was cut off, and Li Wenxuan then kicked the horse's buttocks hard. The two horses suffered from pain, and immediately neighed, and then spread their hooves and galloped into the distance.Li Wenxuan snickered in his heart, thinking that it would take a lot of work for the two of them to get back their mounts, so he didn't hesitate anymore, he jumped on his mount, pulled the reins, swung his whip, and ran five feet away After a long distance, Li Wenxuan turned back to Li Baoshan and said: "Captain Li, I am not a villain. I really had to offend today. If there is a chance in the future, Li Wenxuan will definitely apologize in person!"

After Li Wenxuan said it, Li Baoshan was very angry. Needless to say, he must not believe what he said, but Li Wenxuan didn't bother him anymore. If he didn't believe it, he didn't believe it. He rushed in the direction of Xiangyang, Li Wenxuan was full of wine and food, and his horses were also full of fodder, so he kept going all the way until it got dark, fearing that he might miss Sutou if he went further, then he entered Yicheng Get off your horse and rest.

After half a day, Li Wenxuan had already drank clean the bag of wine he brought from the small wine shop. He was hungry and thirsty, so he immediately asked a passerby for directions, and then rushed to a nearby inn.

Li Wenxuan handed over the mount to the shopkeeper, asked for a guest room, and then went downstairs to order a jug of wine, two big bowls of white rice, two catties of stewed meat, and a piece of soy-flavored rabbit leg.

Li Wenxuan was very hungry and was gorging himself, when he suddenly heard someone shouting from outside the inn: "Shopkeeper, can you see a man with two long swords on his waist coming to the inn?"

When Li Wenxuan came into the inn, the clerk in the inn didn't pay much attention to how many swords Li Wenxuan brought, but replied: "I didn't pay attention, I don't know if there is such a person, why don't you go inside and see for yourself, sir?"

An Ren said again: "No need for now, where are your horses tied up, take me to have a look and see if that man is here."

Li Wenxuan was crying in his heart, and the voice that spoke was Li Baoshan, and he said in his heart: "You came so fast, there are so many thieves in the world, if you don't go and catch them, why did you get involved with me? I'm not afraid of you, but people are exhausted now. , do you want me to run away overnight?"

After Li Baoshan said a few words outside, he didn’t hear anything anymore, presumably he followed the waiter to the stables, Li Wenxuan thought to himself that Li Baoshan’s methods couldn’t help him, so it’s most important to eat quickly to replenish his strength, After a while, if Li Baoshan really came in to arrest him, if there were few people coming, he would lure them to a remote place to press their acupuncture points, if there were too many people, he would have to consider himself unlucky, run away again, and rush to Xiangyang overnight.

Li Wenxuan was eating, and his eyes were not on the door of the inn, but the first bowl of white rice had already been eaten, and everything outside was still as usual, so Li Baoshan disappeared as if out of thin air, and there was no strange movement anymore.

Li Wenxuan was worried, for fear that they might have some kind of trick to deal with him, so he looked around, it was already late, Li Wenxuan was eating alone downstairs in the inn, and all the guests had already returned to their rooms, Li Wenxuan pricked up his ears, Listen carefully to the movement, but still can't detect anything wrong, then look at the clerks in the inn, what to do, if Li Baoshan wants to set up an ambush here, even if he doesn't know it, but the clerks in the inn How much should be known, but it is really strange that they all look calm and composed.

After another stick of incense, Li Wenxuan thought: "By the way, they know they can't beat me head-on, so they must attack me in the middle of the night, yes, that's it, I have to be careful tonight! "

Li Wenxuan was nodding to his own speculations, when a person came in from the door of the inn, Li Wenxuan was afraid that he was a policeman under Li Baoshan, so he took a careful look, and saw that the person looked about 40 or [-] years old, with a big face Square, with wide forehead and sparse eyebrows, full cheeks, round eyes, tip of nose, from the mouth down, heavy and long cheeks, clean face and no beard, strong limbs, swinging arms vigorously when walking, especially when raising feet. There is an unstoppable momentum.

Li Wenxuan was surprised: "Twice against Li Baoshan, only he has some skills. Egg tart is still not comparable to the first-class masters in the world, and the others around him are even more mediocre. Why did such a person come this time?" Hard hand?"

Li Wenxuan couldn't help taking a few more glances, but felt that although this man looked good at martial arts, there was a bit of elegance between his brows, and he looked like a scholar. Like an iron tower, it is majestic and majestic, especially those eyes, which are piercing, which makes people respectful.

Li Wenxuan was only focused on looking at the others, but unexpectedly the middle-aged man was also looking at him, the two eyes met, Li Wenxuan was immediately defeated, he bowed his head to eat and did not dare to look again.

Li Wenxuan murmured in his heart: "What is the origin of this person? I have met so many sect masters in Hongyue Mountain, and they are all very powerful figures, but no one can compare to this person's majesty, Li Wenxuan Can Baoshan move such a person? What is the origin of this person?"

The middle-aged man glanced around the store, and said slowly, "Xiao Er, a pot of water, a bowl of rice, and a stack of dried beans."

"Oh...Okay, okay, wait a moment!" The clerk in this inn was like Li Wenxuan. He also saw that the person who came in was not like an ordinary person. He stopped, but he didn't react for a while when he heard the words.

Li Wenxuan thought to himself: "This person looks like a man, but the meal is so simple, white rice with dried tofu, and some boiled water, it's only a few copper coins." Li Wenxuan looked at the meals in front of him again. Meat, I am afraid that one meal will be the top of the life of the middle-aged man, but I feel a little ashamed, and the leftover bowl of rice doesn't feel very delicious anymore.

There are seven or eight tables in this inn, except for one occupied by Li Wenxuan and one occupied by a gentleman who settles accounts, the others are all empty. It is strange to say that there are so many places that middle-aged people do not go to. , walked towards Li Wenxuan, Li Wenxuan couldn't help but look up at him, the middle-aged man smiled and pointed to an empty bench opposite Li Wenxuan, lowered his head slightly, meaning to ask Li Wenxuan if he could sit down.

Li Wenxuan saw that this man was very imposing. Although he had been wary that he was with Li Baoshan, he still didn't dare to be negligent in terms of etiquette. He immediately stood up and said, "Uncle, please sit down."

The middle-aged man nodded slightly as a thank you, and sat down, and the shop assistant brought up the rice, dried tofu, and water that the middle-aged man asked for. Er's appearance is also very respectful, and he dare not neglect.

The middle-aged man didn't talk to Li Wenxuan anymore, he just lowered his head to eat.

The middle-aged man seemed to eat delicious food, but Li Wenxuan couldn't bear it any longer. Seeing that the wine and meat in front of him were not pleasing to the eye, if he had known that he would meet such a person, Li Wenxuan would definitely ask for some simple food.

Li Wenxuan finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said: "Uncle, it's a rare fate that we can eat at the same table here, why don't we let the younger generation do something today and treat you to a few drinks, how about it?" Li Wenxuan came here as a test Find out if this person is harboring hostility, and also because he is afraid that this person will be short of cash, so he eats so simple, and intends to do something good, just for fear that the other person will not look good, saying that he is destined to meet, invite you to drink, all of it Just found an excuse.

The middle-aged man shook his head with a smile and asked, "Do you like drinking?"

Li Wenxuan didn't expect him to ask this question, so he was taken aback and said, "It's not that I like to drink, it's just..." Li Wenxuan was confused as he spoke, and asked in his heart: "Yeah, why should I What about drinking?"

The middle-aged man saw that Li Wenxuan was questioned by himself, and said with a smile: "wine is sweet and clear, especially good wine, the taste is very good. Not loving it, just..."

Li Wenxuan asked, "Just what?"

The middle-aged man continued: "It's just that everyone is greedy for tongue and tongue. If you drink too much, you tend to get greedy. If you get drunk, you will always make trouble. So I haven't drank for many years. Thank you for your kindness."

Li Wenxuan always felt that what he said seemed to be educating himself, and he even called himself a child. Before he knew it, he had already held the wine glass in his hand. Hearing what the middle-aged man said, he couldn't help but put the wine glass down again.

The middle-aged man said with a smile: "You like to drink, and you are the one who drinks you. People in the Jianghu, if they can't even touch alcohol, how can they have the arrogance of a good man?"

Li Wenxuan also smiled when he heard his words, but he didn't touch the wine glass again.

The middle-aged man said again: "I see that the two swords you are carrying seem to be top-grade swords. I am facing you, and I already feel that the swords are murderous. I wonder if you can lend me a look?"

Li Wenxuan loves the two swords of Qingshuang Zidian very much. He can't wait to hold them in his arms every day when he sleeps. All the friends around him also know that these swords are extraordinary. However, this is Li Wenxuan's property. If he can't want it, he often comes Li Wenxuan didn't care about taking a look at it and playing around with it, but strangers have never said that they want to take a look at Li Wenxuan's sword.

This is the first time this middle-aged person has just met and wants to see Li Wenxuan's sword without even notifying his name. Baoshan's voice was outside, this middle-aged man was probably on the same side as Li Baoshan, Li Wenxuan should never have shown him, if he wanted to take the opportunity to seize the sword, it would be very bad.

It's just that when Li Wenxuan looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, it didn't look like he was hostile to him. Although he looked at this man with awe-inspiring righteousness, like a god, people dared not look directly at him, but sometimes he was like an elder relative. It makes people feel close to each other when they look at it.

Li Wenxuan untied the two swords, held them in both hands, and said, "Uncle, although these two swords are said to be long swords, they are actually a pair. The one with the ebony scabbard is called Qingshuang. Vivid, the mahogany scabbard is called Zidian, in comparison, it is more masculine, and the strength of the sword is also cautious."

The middle-aged man nodded, took the Qingshuang Zidian, stroked the scabbard lightly, did not draw out the sword to look at it, and then said: "It really is two good swords!" Then he handed back the two swords To Li Wenxuan.

Seeing him praising his precious swords, Li Wenxuan quickly returned the two swords, and was delighted in his heart. Most of the previous precautions had been dispelled, but when the middle-aged man looked at Zidian Qingshuang, he just held them in his hands and weighed them. Without taking it out for a closer look, it was said to be a good sword, but Li Wenxuan was puzzled.

Li Wenxuan said: "Uncle, didn't you say you want to see these two swords? Why do you say they are good swords without the sheath?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Ordinary weapons are sharp when the sword is out of the sheath. To judge whether a weapon is good or not, one should take a closer look at it, but if you look at a high-quality weapon..." The middle-aged man shook his head and said: "As long as you have a clear mind, you only need to use your heart when appraising a high-quality weapon. If you look at it with your eyes, it is a desecration of the sword. Your swords are also a treasure of Pinjian Villa, and they are considered top-grade."

Li Wenxuan said again: "Uncle, how do you know the origin of these two swords? How do you know that they belong to Pinjian Villa?"

The middle-aged man said: "Li Shaoxia used this pair of weapons in the battle at Hongyue Mountain. He fought against six of Yanyun's eighteen cavalry alone. How could I not know how majestic and majestic he was? "

Li Wenxuan felt a lot more relieved when he heard about Hongyue Mountain. From this point of view, he and Li Baoshan should not be on the same side. Even if they were on the same side, he would not necessarily embarrass himself if he knew these things. , Li Wenxuan said: "Uncle, I really don't dare to say that. In Hongyue Mountain, I actually did my best. If General Yang Zaixing hadn't led troops to rescue him in the end, I'm afraid it would be useless."

The middle-aged man nodded and said: "Well, not bad, not proud, not taking credit, it's not bad among young people."

Li Wenxuan saw that his tone seemed like an old senior was judging himself, and he was even more curious about this person's background, but because the other party was old, he couldn't ask rashly, fearing that he would lose his manners, so he kept provoking him.

The middle-aged man said again: "Li Shaoxia is young, the battle of Hongyue Mountain made him famous all over the world in one day, he will have a lot of achievements in the future, I wonder what your plans are in the future?"

Li Wenxuan thought to himself: "It's really strange why many people are asking me this recently." He said: "To tell you the truth, uncle, I have always wanted to join the army, but now there are some mundane matters that I have left, and I want to go first now." Looking for a good friend in Xiangyang, if there is a chance in the future, I would like to find out the cause of the death of the previous owner Situ of Pinjian Villa, to tell you the truth, uncle, there are still many people who think I am a murderer."

The middle-aged man said again: "Oh, is that so? Since you have a clear conscience, why should you be afraid if a few people misunderstand you?"

Li Wenxuan smiled wryly and said, "I'm not afraid, it's just that I've been pestered by people because of this matter for many days, it's really troublesome."

The middle-aged man replied with a hot smile: "What's the matter, you are capable, and you have a famous sword in your hand, whoever comes to trouble you, you just kill them and send them away."

Li Wenxuan hurriedly said: "This will never work. If bad people come to trouble me, it's okay. If I can beat them well, I will teach them a lesson. The most fearful thing is that some good people will come to seek my bad luck." Li Wenxuan glanced around , whispered: "To be honest, Uncle, today I was misunderstood by a police officer, and that man insisted on arresting me, but he is a good man, so I had no choice but to run away. It is strange to say that I just heard that The police have already chased him to this inn, but the people behind him don’t know where they went, it’s really strange.”

The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said: "Probably because he knows he can't beat you, so he won't come to trouble you again."

Li Wenxuan said: "Well, it's best to be like this, otherwise I will have to run away next time I see him, alas!"

Li Wenxuan said again: "Uncle, I see you are alone, where are you going?"

The middle-aged man pointed in the direction of Xiangyang and said, "I am going to Xiangyang just like you. I want to wait for a friend there."

Li Wenxuan said happily: "That's great, then we can walk together tomorrow."

The middle-aged man just smiled and didn't speak. After a while, the food in front of the two of them had been eaten, but there was still a lot of wine left in Li Wenxuan's order. Going to touch the money in his arms, Li Wenxuan saw this and said: "Uncle, to be honest, when you came in just now, I misunderstood that you were the helper of the head catcher who recruited me to arrest me. I have always been hostile to you from the beginning. Only after eating a meal did I realize that I made a mistake, and I felt so ashamed, why not let the boy take care of the meal and the night’s accommodation, and let me make amends in my heart, otherwise I would be very sorry. Sorry."

The middle-aged man said: "Well, since you have said so, I will not be disrespectful, thank you."

Li Wenxuan gave the money, and the two went back to the guest room respectively. The middle-aged man walked in front, and Li Wenxuan shouted from behind: "Uncle, I will call you tomorrow morning, let's go on the road together."

The middle-aged man didn't answer, but just waved his back to Li Wenxuan, and then entered the room.
