Ugly Man

Before the city gate was closed, Lu Nanzhu entered Qingzhou City, and the famous ugly man didn't even have the money to stay in.

Lu Nanzhu touched the few pieces of silver left in his arms and found a ruined temple on the outskirts of the city. He bowed to the broken idol and turned on the beam, ready to spend the night here.

As night fell, Lu Nanzhu opened his eyes and grasped the hilt in his arms. After a few breaths, a faint conversation came from outside the temple. After a while, a group of people opened the temple door and walked in.

Lu Nanzhu looked sideways and saw that it was a group of beggars. Lu Nanzhu slowed his breathing. He heard the beggars below each find a place to sit down, and then began to talk about begging. Whose food is fresh, where can you get some? A copper plate...

Lu Nanzhu listened for a while, it turned out that this ruined temple was the site of these beggars, and she slowly closed her eyes.

"Hey, brothers, I have a way to get rich, do you want to see it."

Lu Nanzhu hooked her mouth. Her life in Shiyin Village was boring and monotonous. She used to walk around and watch flowers. This time she slowed down with a travel mentality, and she felt fresh and interesting to see everything.

"Take a look, what is this…"

A beggar took out a piece of sheepskin from his arms with a picture of a man and a sword on it.

"What is this, is it a wanted criminal? I don't want to do terrible things!"

"Lei Er, how do you live this day? You don't even know him?"

"Wearing a mask, who knows."

Lu Nanzhu's heart jumped, opened his eyes, turned his head slightly, and looked down...

Five beggars surrounded a piece of sheepskin, and through the dim oil lamp, you could see that it was the ugly man painted on it!

"Ugly man, you know? He is worth money now!"

"Ugly man? That's it, that... the storyteller tells it every day?"

"Well, that's right, this is a sheepskin given to me by an uncle. As long as I find the whereabouts of the ugly man, I will be rewarded ten gold. Don't blame my brother for not taking care of you, you are all optimistic!"

"This...I'm in tatters and I'm wearing a mask, how do I recognize it?"

"Hey, see if there is this sword. The legendary Dragon Sword is as famous as the Phoenix Blood Sword. As long as you see a similar outfit and holding the Dragon Sword in your hand, he immediately went to the Chenghuang Temple and told me that he took half of the reward. "

After blowing out the remaining lamps, the five beggars lay down.

"Big brother, what do you say these uncles are looking for with ugly men? I heard others say that ugly men are good people who rob the rich and help the poor."

"What do you care about so much, you don't want to make money? He robbed the rich and helped the poor and didn't give it to us. Besides, we are not harming him. We just saw a letter, run an errand, and go to sleep!"

…

There was snoring in the temple, but Lu Nanzhu couldn't sleep.

If she didn't guess wrong, the reason why so many people wanted to find themselves must be for the Dragon Sword!

The next day, Lu Nanzhu waited until the beggars left one after another before turning over the beam.

She walked into a teahouse, picked an inconspicuous corner, asked for a pot of tea, and took out the dry food from her rucksack.

Just halfway through the meal, a man in a long gown came in with a half mask on his face and a bamboo pole in his hand. A white cloth strip was hung on the bamboo pole and three characters were written on it: Bao Inquire.

Lu Nanzhu raised his head and took a look. The man saw that there were other people in the position he was sitting in. He was slightly startled and sat next to Lu Nanzhu.

Lu Nanzhu swallowed the dry food in his mouth, pulled the veil up, and was about to leave. When the refreshment of the man at the next table arrived, Xiao Er pulled down the white cloth on his shoulders, wiped the table carefully before putting the things down, and said politely: "Sir, you have come every day for three months, but you are really gaining money every day."

Bao asked and smiled, but didn't answer.

"Sir, how do you know so much about the world?"

"Little brother, you have to pay for asking questions."

The shop second scratched his head: "I don't have any money, sir, I can't make so much money in a year. Please use it slowly and wish you a prosperous business."

Bao inquired and nodded, Xiao Er turned and left.

Lu Nanzhu slowly put down the package he was holding, glanced at the bag without a trace, pulled the veil, and filled the empty cup in front of him.

Two hours later, the number of guests in the hall gradually increased, and five people walked in from the outside, which attracted Lu Nanzhu's attention.

The head was a weakly crowned young man, followed by four entourages. The man held a sword in his hand and walked to sit down in front of Bao Inquiry.

Pushing an ingot of gold ingots in front of Bao Inquiry, he asked straightforwardly: "Where is the ugly man?"

Lu Nanzhu's fingers shook while holding the teacup. The man noticed the girl in Tsing Yi at the next table and noticed the Wenjian she placed on the table. He withdrew his gaze and didn't let his subordinates drive people away.

Bao asked, put away the ingot, and replied: "North."

With a sound of "pop!" Before the young man could speak, the entourage standing behind him patted heavily on the table: "You swindlers, you are good at doing business. We have gone all the way. Speaking to the north, this Qingzhou city is already the last stop, and further north, it is a barren land where birds don’t shit. Show your tricks and see who is sitting in front of you. How dare you say anything?"

The young man's complexion was slightly unhappy, but he waved his hand in the end and motioned to his entourage to retreat: "Sir, let's go to the south, and every city along the way will give me a reward. This is already Qingzhou, this is yours. The answer may not satisfy me."

"The fourth son came from afar, how dare you deceive you?"

The young man showed a look of astonishment and lowered his voice: "Mr. knows me?"

"If Zai Xia didn't guess wrong, the son is the four rooms and four youngsters of Huaxia Villa, Xia Qinrun."

Seeing that his identity was being predicated, Xia Qinrun put away his displeased face: "Mr.'s eyes are like a torch. It's Xiao Ke, dare to ask Mr., where is the ugly man?"

Bao asked and raised a finger: "One gold."

Xia Qinrun smiled: "It's easy to say."

"North."

"But further north, you will leave the Central Plains. Could it be that the ugly man is hiding in the savage land?"

"The son only needs to go north and he can find it by himself."

"Ugly man is really Lord Grim's descendant?"

"It's true."

"The martial arts secret book left by the strange man is also in his hand?"

"Yes."

"Dare to ask sir, can I defeat the Ugly Man with the strength of the five of me?"

"It can be a fight."

Lu Nanzhu came out of the teahouse, feeling cold behind him.

She finally understood why everyone knew about her affairs. After hearing Xia Qinrun's mention, Bao Qinyun was not alone at all.

Where did these people come from? Just now Lu Nanzhu had a cold sweat. Although Bao Qiao didn't say he lived in Tianshan, Lu Nanzhu felt that they knew it.

At least the things about the Dragon Sword and "Tian Mo Gong" are all true.

Who is so clear about his own affairs? Over the past year, she has been careful everywhere and became the target of bounty hunters, simply because she is an "ugly man"...

Lu Nanzhu tightened the sword in his hand, all these weird changes happened after the Tianqiong Mountain Demon Slaying Conference.

She was not surprised that the Dragon Sword was recognized, after all, there were so many people present at the time.

However, how to explain the matter of "Tian Mo Gong"?

Is it Gongsunqing? Or other people who have been ignored by yourself?

Perhaps it was Bao Qiao, who inferred from the Dragon Sword that disappeared for a hundred years, that he was the descendant of Wei Xia, and they also said that in the past...

However, how do you explain that point to the "north side"?

Lu Nanzhu was upset, she always felt that she had missed something very important, but she couldn't understand even after thinking about it: she had always been cautious, how could she expose it so thoroughly!

Lu Nanzhu didn't dare to hesitate, and hurried back to Tianshan.

Even the young master of Huaxia Villa in the south has arrived in Qingzhou. I am afraid that more and more people will gather in the north in the future. Once the Tianshan Mountains are exposed, Shiyin Village will definitely suffer.

Seven days later, Lu Nanzhu returned to Tianshan and stood under a huge stone monument with a few people high. Lu Nanzhu felt sour in his heart: A hundred years ago, her master made martial arts discouraged people by relying on a stone monument alone, and protected Shiyin Village for a hundred years of peace. No one dared to covet the Canglong Sword in the hands of the master, but now that these things were passed on to his own hands, it caused disaster to Shiyin Village.

Lu Nanzhu thought of many ways along the way. The safest thing is to take out the five remaining families in the village, steal some money by yourself, find a good place, buy a few houses, and let the villagers move.

She only had to bid farewell to the name of the ugly man and live with the identity of a deer. The people who came to search for the ugly man found only an empty village, and sooner or later the limelight would pass.

This is the safest way. Lu Nanzhu is not sure that he is fighting against the world on his own, just like the strange man back then.

However, the moment Lu Nanzhu stood in front of the giant stone stele, his heart was sour when he looked at the big characters of dragons and phoenix dancing on it.

A deep sadness and powerlessness swept through my heart: she inherited the mantle of a strange man, but she has fallen to this point.

Lu Nanzhu stood under the giant stone tablet and lowered her head in shame. She didn't even try to resist, so she chose to escape.

Didn't you look for the clues that daddy left behind? Even if it is not for revenge, how can children of human beings not even know the names of their parents?

Could it be that oneself must carry the identity of the Demon Cultist and retreat into the world?

Sealing the Dragon Sword at the bottom of the lake, burying it, and... the owner of the Phoenix Blood Sword: Xia Qinyi, at the beginning, he swore to her as a fateful opponent, and only fought an undivided test. Going to hide cowardly?

Lu Nanzhu clenched her fists. In the end, she did not discuss the relocation with the villagers, but went directly to the bottom of the Tianshan Valley, sneaked into the cold lake and took out the Dragon Sword.

Lu Nanzhu's temperament was indisputable in the world, maybe it was influenced by the strange man, maybe he had seen the excitement of the outside world, and was unwilling to be silent, or maybe... there are still too many wishes in her heart that have not been fulfilled.

The combination of many reasons made Lu Nanzhu choose a path that was completely opposite to her previous decision.

On the dirt road from Qingzhou into the city, a girl in Tsing Yi with a hat holds a sword in her hand and a long box on her back.

In the wooden box, there were the Dragon Sword that countless people coveted, a mask, an overwhelmed outfit, and a silver-white inner armor.

Lu Nanzhu didn't know who Bao asked, and didn't think about how he exposed.

However, these are not important anymore.

Didn't Bao Qiao instruct people from the rivers and lakes to go to the north to find themselves?

Well, Lu Nanzhu took the Ugly Man's outfit all the way south, she decided to do a big vote in the south, it is best to make a sensation so that the whole martial arts knows.

The ugly man is to the south!

A piece of rivers and lakes, a girl, a mask.

A set of magic power, a dragon sword.

Lu Nanzhu officially started her jianghu road.

The author has something to say: Today’s update has arrived, Xiaolu has officially set foot on the rivers and lakes. The Xiaoluhui and Xia Qinyi have a lot of rivalries, and the children of the rivers and lakes have grievances and hatred.

Of course, Xiaolu is not always a menswear in front of Xia Qinyi~
