Chapter 4 The lotus has thorns
The current is fast!
Once she jumped down, she never came up again.

Wuji couldn't help asking, "Is the water here deep?"

The fisherman said: "It's not too deep, but it's not a problem to drown a few big girls like her." '

Wuji sneered, and said, "I didn't push her down, so what does it matter to me whether she lives or dies?"

The fisherman said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter at all." '

Wuji said: "Besides, for an unreasonable woman like her, it's better to die." '

The fisherman said: "Okay, very good, very good." '

Before he could finish his words, Wuji jumped into the water with a 'plop'.

□□□

The water is clear and not too cold.

In such weather, it is also a pleasure to swim in the small river.

It's a pity that Wuji is not happy at all.

As soon as he jumped down, he found someone pulling his leg, and he drank several sips of water at once.

Although the river water is clear and cool, it is still not pleasant to drink it like this.

Especially when it comes out of the nose after drinking it into the mouth, the taste is even more terrible.

Even he himself didn't know how much he drank, how much poured into his stomach, and how much came out of his nose.

Only now did he know that no matter how calm and composed a person is, as soon as he falls into the river and is given a sip of water, he will immediately die.

Changed to Hui, Hui's head turned, unable to distinguish east, west, north, south.

Finally he caught something in his hand, it seemed to be a penny, and his head finally came out of the water.

The big girl was already on the shore, he seemed to hear her laughing and cursing!
"On the ground, I can't beat you. I can only teach you a little lesson in the water. How dare you beat women in the future?"

When he was fully awake, the eldest girl was gone, but the fisherman was looking at him and laughing.

'It turns out that you are also an unlucky ghost. If I am an unlucky gambler, you are an unlucky pervert. It seems that you are even more unlucky than me.
. '

□□□

This unlucky gambler is of course Xuanyuan Yiguang.

Wuji admits to being unlucky.

But he was not angry.

Life is like this, sometimes bad luck, sometimes lucky.

He is never too proud when he is lucky, and never too angry when he is unlucky.

Xuanyuan Yiguang looked at him with a smile, and said, "A person's luck is usually found by himself." '

Wuji said, "I'm not." '

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "She is a big girl, why would she come to you for no reason?"

The fact is like this, the big girl found him for no reason.

But Wuji didn't want to discuss this question again: "Why didn't you ask me, how could I recognize you?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "I was just about to ask." '

He took off the hat that was worn very low, only then did Wuji see that his face had also completely changed, becoming gloomy,
Deadeye.

Wuji said: "Your face doesn't look very good, it's better to wear a hat." '

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "But my appearance is much more valuable than the original one. '

Wuji said, "Oh?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Can't you see that I'm wearing a human skin mask?"

He smiled and said again: "This is probably the most expensive mask in the world. It is said that it was made by Qiqiao boy in the past. Look at it."
How about it?'

Wuji said: "Very good." '

This mask was indeed very delicate, if he didn't tell it himself, it would be difficult for others to see it even in daylight.

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "But you have recognized me before you got on the boat." '

Wuji said, "I don't need to see your people." '

Xuanyuan Yiguang said, "Can you hear my voice?"

Wuji said, "That's right." '

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "We haven't seen each other for almost a year, I only said a word just now, you can tell who I am?"

Wuji said: "Even if I haven't seen you for ten years, I can still hear it." '

Xuanyuan Yiguang sighed, and said: "It seems that you are not only very capable, but also have a lot of tricks." '

Wuji said, "Has my appearance changed too?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "It has become a lot. '

Wuji said, "You asked that carriage to pick me up?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Not bad." '

Wuji said: "How do you know where I am? Could someone recognize me as Zhao Wuji?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "I don't know about other places, but there seems to be only one person nearby." '

Wuji said, "Who?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "I. ’ He laughed and said, ‘Although your appearance has changed, the scar on your face has not.
Change, this is the mark I left with my own hands, how could I not recognize it?'

Wuji's face was scratched by the poisonous sand, it was indeed he who cut off the poisonous flesh and blood for Wuji with his own hands, and left this strip that looked like a smile
Dimple-like scars.

Of course Wuji will never forget this point.

Xuanyuan Yiguang said again: "Since you remember that I am the best at losing money, you shouldn't forget that I am also the best at finding people."

Number one in the world, even I can find Xiao Donglou, how could I not find you!'

Wuji said, "Did you go to him again this year?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Not this year." '

Wuji said, "Why?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Because I don't want to bring troubles to him, he has enough troubles already." '

Wuji said, "So you didn't go to Mrs. Mei either?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "I can't cause trouble for her." '

Wuji said, "What's the trouble?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang didn't answer yet, but took out a small oil-paper packet from his body.

He opened the oiled paper on the outside, which was wrapped in two layers of coarse cloth, and then opened the two layers of cloth, revealing a gleaming dark

The weapon is surprisingly the poisonous terrier of the Tang family in the middle of Sichuan.

□□□

The sun was setting.

Seen under the setting sun, this poisonous terrestris was actually composed of thirteen tiny pieces of iron.

Moreover, the flashing brilliance on each piece of iron is different, it looks like a magic flower, although it is very beautiful, it is so beautiful that it is strange and terrifying.

Xuanyuan Yiguang had seen this hidden weapon countless times, but now when he looked at it, he still couldn't help but be fascinated.

This kind of hidden weapon itself seems to have a magical power that can intimidate the soul.

He stretched out his hand as if he wanted to touch it, but before his fingertips could touch those tiny petals, he was suddenly shocked.
shrunk back.

He finally sighed and said with a wry smile: 'This is my trouble. '

Wuji said, "Someone from the Tang family came to you?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "It's not that they are looking for me, I am looking for them." '

Wuji said, "Have you been to the Tang family?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "I have been there, and they are here too." '

Wuji was moved and said, "Is someone from the Tang family here?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "There are at least three people nailing me along the way, from Shuzhong to here." '

The sun has not yet set, and the poisonous thorns in his hand are still shining.

Thirteen petals, thirteen kinds of brilliance, seem to be flowing and changing every moment.

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "This is the best of the hidden weapons of the Tang Sect. Only the masters of the direct descendants of the Tang Clan can be assigned this kind of weapon."
hidden weapon. '

He sighed: 'In a small inn on the border of Xishu, this thing almost killed me. '

Wuji said: "So, among the three people who nailed you, at least one is a master among the direct descendants of the Tang family."

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Maybe all three." '

Wuji said, "Didn't you see them?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Those three little bastards not only have two fast legs like rabbits, but also have noses like hounds.

He also knows a little disguise technique. The three of them changed at least 46 ways along the way, and once even pretended to be a pregnant woman with a big belly.
pregnant woman with child. '

He laughed and said: "Fortunately, I happen to be the ancestor of this industry. No matter how they change, I can still see him
Come on their fox tail. '

In fact, along the way, he has also changed his disguise eighteen times, and once he even dressed up as a village girl with big feet.

But no matter how he changes, people can still see his fox tail.

Disguise is not magic at all, there is absolutely no way to change a person into another person.

Wuji said: "The direct descendants of the Tang family have always been underpopulated. The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren of this generation only have thirty adults in total.

There are many people, and there seem to be only about twenty men. '

He also knew a lot about the Tang family in the middle of Shu.

He knows a lot about any sect and family that can pose a threat to Dafengtang.

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Although their population is not very strong, there are at least seven masters out of ten." '

Wuji's eyes flickered, and he said, "Do you think Tang Ao and Tang Yu are among the three of them who came this time?"

Hearing the name 'Tang Ao', Xuanyuan Yiguang seemed to be startled: "You also know that there are such two people in the Tang family?"

Wuji said, "I've heard of it." '

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "They didn't come this time." '

Wuji said, "How do you know?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "If they come, can I still live till now?"

Wuji's eyes flashed again, and he said, "Are they really that powerful?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang's answer was very straightforward: 'Really. '

Wuji pondered, and after a long time, he slowly said: "If they are really so powerful, when you think he didn't come
By then, he might have come. '

——You can live until now, perhaps only because their target is not you.

Wuji did not say this sentence.

He suddenly sneered, and said: "No matter which three of them came, since they are here, I can't let them go back empty-handed."
. '

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "How do you want them to go back?"

Wuji said: "I want them to go back with their heads up." '

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Whose head is it holding?"

Wuji said, "It's their own!"

Xuanyuan Yiguang looked at him in surprise, suddenly slapped hard, and laughed loudly: "Okay, good boy, have ambition!"

Wuji asked, "Where are the three of them now?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Yesterday I finally got rid of them." '

Wuji said: "But, they must still stay nearby." '

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Very likely." '

Wuji said: "As soon as you show up, they will find you." '

Xuanyuan Yiguang seemed taken aback again: "Do you want to use me to fish?"

Mowgli replied very simply: 'Yes. '

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "I used to have a friend who also liked fishing, and once he caught a big fish. ' he stared at Mowgli
: 'Guess what?'

Wuji said: "In the end, he was swallowed by that big fish instead." '

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "It's not bad at all. '

He sighed: "The three fish we want to catch are not only big, but also poisonous, deadly poisonous." '

Wuji said, "Are you afraid?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Of course I'm afraid. '

Wuji said, "You dare not go?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang sighed again: "Even though I'm afraid, I still have to go." '

Wuji cheered up and said, "Now I have two things to ask you." '

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "You ask." '

Wuji said, "That old man who was driving the car just now, who is yours?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "He is my good friend." '

Wuji asked, "Is he reliable?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang didn't answer this question directly, but only said the old man's name.

'His surname is Qiao, and his name is Qiao Wen. '

"Qiao Wen from Dafeng Hall?"

'yes!'

Wuji asked: "You didn't tell him who I am?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "I just told him that you are my friend and my creditor." '

Wuji said: "So apart from you, no one here knows that I am Zhao Wuji?"

Xuanyuan Yiguang said: "Probably not." '

Wuji let out a long breath, his eyes fixed on Xuanyuan Yiguang.

Now there was only one last thing left for him to ask, and the last thing, and usually the most important thing.

He finally asked: "Did you go to Tang's house to find Shangguan Ren? Is he hiding there?"

This alley is deep and long.

According to the latest statistics from the Yamen, there are a total of 130 nine families living in this alley.

The 130 nine households have one thing in common—every family here likes to eat chili.

So this alley is called Pepper Alley.

□□□

someone said:
Poor people like to eat chili, because they can't afford other dishes, they can only eat with chili. People in this alley
They all like to eat chili, because they are very poor.

someone said:
People in Yunnan, Guangxi, and Shu all like to eat chili, because the humidity and miasma in that area are too heavy, and people in this alley like chili peppers.
Eat chili, because they all migrated from that area.

No one knows why the people in this alley like to eat chili.

But everyone knows that this alley is called Pepper Alley.

□□□

In the evening, Limp Hu limped into Chili Lane.

Ding Gang and Tu Qiang followed him with a limp, even worse than his limp.

Because they were all injured on their legs, on the soft tendons on the inner sides of their knees.

They followed the cripple here, not because they wanted chili, but because they wanted to breathe out, and they thought only the cripple could do it for him.

Because they have seen Hu Liezi's kung fu with their own eyes.

That night, when they called him out for a 'talk', although Hu Liezi didn't suffer for them, he showed them a lot of kung fu.

They believed that Hu Lie's kung fu was by no means inferior to that consumptive ghost who threw fourteen hands and three sixes in a row.

He would rather return 10 taels of silver than sell it, so he must have other intentions.

So they kept following him.

At the beginning, Hu Liezi was still pretending to be confused, but in the end he finally agreed.

'Well, I can avenge you, I can even break the boy's legs for you, but I have one condition. '

His condition was: 'Whatever I ask you to do, you have to keep your mouth shut and do it. '

To keep your mouth shut means not to ask questions.

This condition sounded a bit harsh, but they still agreed, they would never let an unknown pawn stab their legs with two swords and walk away.

Hu Liezi showed satisfaction on his face, and said: "Now you should treat me to a meal first. I want to eat carp with watercress and spicy chicken." '

He asked them again: 'Do you two like spicy food?'

Ding Gang hurriedly said, "We like it." '

Hu Liezi smiled and said, "That's great. I know there is a place that stir-fries spicy chicken, which can make your face full of tears and cold sweat." '

So they made it to Chili Lane.
