Chapter 11 Chapter Eleven

The three of them were dragged into the cliff cave, and the cave was dark. After searching and disarming, one person was woken up, his limbs and joints were pulled off, and he fell face down.This person could only turn his head sideways and saw the vague figure sitting beside him, unable to move, so he knew what was going on. Those who wandered the rivers and lakes for their lives, if they were indifferent to life and death, would die very quickly.If you really see it openly, you are not afraid of death, and you will die faster.Once it falls into the hands of the enemy, how to fight for survival depends not only on wisdom, but also on luck.

Show your name first.He asked, scratching the right helix of the other party with his fingernails, expressing that he was going to torture the ear first: those who are willing to cooperate can live, but lying and fooling around will surely lead to a miserable death. You understand the rules of the world, don't you? Do we have any grudges?Who are you?The man in a black suit asked back. He was a big man in his forties, with a tough tone. You don't want to cooperate.With a flick of the fingernail, a big crack was split in the helix. hey you I.His heart moved, and he remembered the words of the man in gray robe: You can use insidious methods to kill people: I want a confession.I, Wang Shixiu, a poisonous scholar, am an expert in extorting confessions. I have a poisonous heart, and I have a thousand ways to get you to confess.

Pretending to be a famous expert to lure a confession is one of the insidious methods. Pindao is known as the Messenger of the Nether, and I can find out everything about the three realms of heaven, earth and man.Miao Jian actually has the energy to speak clearly, imitating the accent of Jianghu Wudu Feiyun Sanren, lifelike. The Five Poisons of the Jianghu are currently imperial envoys. They have transformed from underworld fierce monsters to official figures, and they have joined the forest of white ways.The change of status is very easy, no one is more or less common. There are three of you, so don't bother Feiyun Sanren to use the ecstasy method to obtain the confession.He further intimidated: Ben Xiushi likes to use old-fashioned methods to extract the required confessions.The confessions of the three people must be consistent, and those who have different confessions will be executed by dismantling their bones.Are you recruiting or not?

Below is Dewey the Three-Eyed Tiger, the guard in charge of the East Lower Fort of Willinburg.When this man heard the name they both announced, he felt relieved, the five elements were saved, how could the five poisons of the world dare to offend the chivalrous heroes of Weilinbao?Cooperatively reported their identities: Everyone, the people in this castle didn't offend you, did they? You didn't sneak up on me?He asked in a deep voice. The incident happened in a hurry, and misunderstandings are inevitable in the dark!bet is not What are you doing here?He changed the subject. Laying nets to lurk, one is to capture the magic sword Taibao, and the other is to capture the people of Xuanwumen.The three-eyed tiger will answer all questions.

Huh!Xuanwu Gate and Guibao Our people raided the magic sword and wonderful sword, and when someone made trouble, the people from Xuanwu Sect arrived and arrested the two of us, although their deputy sect master betrayed Benbao's account and released our people.We know that they captured a person at the same time, who is said to be a friend of Shendao Taibao.The young master of the castle thought that the opportunity was great, and he just used it as an excuse to attack Xuanwumen, taking the opportunity to eradicate this number one killer group, and use the opportunity to improve the prestige of the castle.If successful, the young castle master can take a big step towards the status of the Four Masters of the martial arts.As long as three or two of them are caught, their real mountain gate will definitely be found.Everyone, please don't interfere, there is no need for you to wade into this nest of muddy waters.

His heart skipped a beat.His friends, except for Miao Jian, have all gone their separate ways, how could they appear in Xinzheng.Who will it be? There are stupid people like you in the world.Miao Jian said with a sigh: "Xuanwu Gate is powerful in the world. It is not only the evergreen tree in the killer group, but also the number one killer group. The bright mountain gate is protected by the government, but the dark real mountain gate is still unknown to the world."Wellin Fort is simply a small village that is difficult to fortify. Since the disappearance of Dabatian, there are fewer and fewer friends, and self-protection is not easy. Can it withstand the attacks of those super killers of Xuanwumen?How long can you defend?God knows how much it will cost?Let them fiddle!Tell them to go!

order.With a strange tone, he pressed the Three-Eyed Tiger's joints of his hands and feet, then slapped him unconscious, and then dragged away. Get the three unconscious people away, half a mile away, and stuff them in the grass.Dawn has appeared in the eastern sky, and it is another sunny day. There is no need for other confessions, the Three-Eyed Tiger, Wei Linbao's minions know very little about the Xuanwu Sect, and they cannot ask why.He knew all about the inside story of Willenberg looking for him, so there was no need to ask too many questions. Enmity was very common.He and Gan Lanying used two knives to abolish many minions of the castle. The owner of the number one castle in the world is known as Da Batian. Wouldn't his prestige be ruined if he was willing to let him go?

Weilinbao wants to use the name of a chivalrous hero to eradicate Xuanwumen Liwei.For him, it was none of his business, but beneficial to him, and reduced the threat of Xuanwumen to him. He was just optimistic, and he could even win the fisherman's profit by fighting with each other! He instinctively felt that the people in Willenberg were unreliable, that these idiots were daydreaming and delusional.The people from Xuanwumen chased him in groups, and each group was attacked by several killers in armor.The Three-Eyed Tiger's lurking group consisted of only three people, and they actually tried to capture a group of armored killers from Xuanwumen. Xuanwu Gate?

Miao Jian said let them mess around, the two tigers fighting would be beneficial to him, and all he had to do now was wait, wait for the chaos to happen, and wait for Miao Jian to recover his energy. Returning to the cliff cave, he leaned against the wall and dozed off to recharge his energy. A strong dragon does not fight a local snake.Qianglong people from other places are unfamiliar, and there is no way to inquire about information. How dare the local snakes and rats cooperate with outsiders?Walking around in places where people are unfamiliar is like a blind man blinding a horse. Qianglong from all sides came to Xinzheng at the same time, and rushed out to fight for the opportunity before unloading their luggage.As a result, he crashed into the wild land on the outskirts of the city. The terrain was very complicated, with rivers, valleys, hills, cliff caves, lush forests, bushes and thorns.There is only a small village of three families, and Xuanyuan Barren Mountain, a mysterious and symbolic monument.It was a waste of effort to ask the villagers for news.

In short, all the heroes gathered by Wenfeng Ants were all attracted by the news of the rumors, and this area followed the footsteps of Qingsong Village, and it was useless to search everywhere.Seventy-eight out of ten of the participants were familiar faces and old friends, but they couldn't find Tang Qingsong, the target they were looking for. Tang Qingsong's deer attracted all the hunters who wanted to compete. In Qingsong Village, the people from Xiaoyin Villa in Wuhuling never showed up, disdain to pay attention to these ambitious elements, and Weilinbao's action of prosecuting the teacher came to an end without a problem.

The Xuanwu Sect, the master here, originally divided the troops and made a big noise. It is logical that there must be killers all over the place, and they will deal with the strong dragons from other places with the attitude of local strong dragons, so as to maintain the prestige of the world's number one killer combination. Unexpectedly, the situation suddenly changed. Not long after dawn, Long Snake, who was still searching all over the mountains and plains, found that the armored killer who appeared yesterday had completely disappeared for some reason, coming and going without a trace. Some people guessed that the killers had already grasped the magical sword, so they withdrew quietly. The local masters acted quickly, and it was easy to withdraw secretly. All the powerful dragons in the realm came for Tang Qingsong. If they were captured by Xuanwumen, the target would naturally be transferred to Xuanwumen, but no one confirmed it, so they had to continue searching near Xuanyuan Mountain, hoping to find Tang Qingsong trail. Around noon, more than forty black-clothed men gathered at the intersection of the small path from the county road to Xuanyuanqiu, and surrounded the five poisonous rivers and lakes, which also had twenty-four people, and the atmosphere became tense. In front of the woods in the northeast corner, there are sixteen people from the leader of the Black Dragon Gang, Master Ge. They watched with cold eyes and did not want to join. At the southern end of the avenue, the leader of the Maitreya Sect, Master Wuji, led eighteen men and women in green robes, who also stood by with interest and paid attention to the development of the situation. The number of heroes from all walks of life is different every time. Except for the famous and high-ranking figures, the faces of other people often change. It can be seen that they all have another group of minions operating in the dark. They know each other well. It is best to avoid causing unnecessary conflicts, so as not to affect the overall situation. Last night, they made a tripartite agreement to work together for the time being. Master Xun, the military advisor of Maitreya Sect, came forward to hold the banner, and went to Xuanwumen to ask for Tang Qingsong.If Tang Qingsong had not fallen into the hands of Xuanwumen, he would ask Xuanwumen to let go of Tang Qingsong's affairs.At present, their agreement is still in place, and they should stand shoulder to shoulder against the people of Wellingborough, and they should not stand idly by. Looking at the current situation, the Maitreya Sect and the Black Dragon Gang seem to have aspirations, standing on the sidelines from a distance. Xun Fuzi, who publicly held the banner, stood beside Master Wuji, waving a folding fan lightly and leisurely, chatting and laughing with Master Wuji from time to time. This Master Xun is one of the eight masters in the world and one of several military advisers with a high status in the Maitreya Sect. His nickname is Qiankun in the Sleeve, which means that all the schemes are calculated by his hands in the sleeves. , You can establish the universe. The gray-robed man who appeared in the cliff cave last night, Miao Jian suspected that he was a eccentric hero who moved the world with fame and fame, and Bai Xiaotian, a chivalrous man in the sleeve, was a close friend of Chang Beiyue.The two nicknames are the same, but the meanings of the nicknames are different, and the prestige and reputation of the two are also very different. Master Xun is a rebellious hero of the secret religion, and Bai Xiaotian is a chivalrous hero. What is certain is that if these two people meet together, there will definitely be disputes. One-on-one, it will be difficult for Master Xun to accept Bai Xiaotian's big sleeves. Among the people in Weilinbao, a handsome and burly young man came out. He wore a colorful ancient sword, a black robe fluttering with extraordinary momentum, and his tiger's eyes were shining brightly. He stood tall like a mountain without anger. With a wave of his hand, the three-eyed tiger Dewey came out with a dispirited complexion and struggling to move, with his head downcast and his eyes glazed over. People whose joints in the hands and feet are pulled off, although the period of time is short, their tendons must be injured, and they will sweat coldly with pain when they move in a short period of time.As the saying goes: Damaged tendons and bones cannot be recovered in a hundred days.So extorting a confession by pulling off the joints of the hands and feet is quite cruel. Messenger of the Netherworld, stand up for me.The handsome young man's voice was like a bell, and his tiger eyes opened angrily: I, Weilinbao, have never had any conflicts with you five poisons in the rivers and lakes.I want to know why you attacked the people in this castle last night, and why you used cruel means to extract confessions from the people in this castle. I want you to give me justice. You said that Pindao used ruthless means to deal with you, a sick dog-like minion?The Nether Messenger Feiyun Sanren came out, pointing at the Three-Eyed Tiger and sneering: I know this person, he used to be a famous martial artist in Zhengzhou, the Three-Eyed Tiger Dewey, he is famous for his outstanding martial arts, that's all.What are you talking about last night? It is correct that at dawn this morning, you and the vicious warrior Wang Shixiu used fire to trap the three people in Benbao.The three-eyed tiger was almost crippled by you, how can I, Weilinbao, exist in your heart?Damn you. Pindao admits the five poisons of the Jianghu, and is a little afraid of Weilinbao. As long as the master of the noble castle gives an order with a sword, the swords of the world's chivalrous heroes will be concentrated on our underworld tyrant Jianghu five poisons. How can we have a good life? Pass?In Pindao's mind, he is worried all the time. Guibao's sword of chivalry runs through Pindao's chest, so he dare not let the handle be grasped by you. If you can bear it, you will bear it, and I would rather avoid you Don't talk nonsense to me!The young man scolded, his voice was like thunder. Pindao is aimed at you, answer truthfully!The Nether Messenger smiled slyly, his expression was in sharp contrast to the other party's fury: You are young and energetic, very airy, who are you? Sun Yunhao, the young master of Weilin Castle.The young man said proudly. oh!Is it true or false that the Lord of the noble castle has been missing for two years?It seems that your father has really disappeared you bitch You are nothing but a mad dog.The Nether Messenger's face sank, and a strange light appeared in the triangular eyes, and the sound of shouting was not loud, but Gongsun Yunhao's eyes blinked three times quickly. The three-eyed tiger's feet went limp, and he sat down on the ground. Your Gongsun Yunhao put his hand on the sword target. If the five poisons of the world are really afraid of Weilinbao, how dare they run rampant in the world?The Nether Messenger's first sentence was full of sarcasm, but the second sentence unceremoniously taught and ridiculed the young castle master, relying on the old to sell the old, which angered Gongsun Yunhao to the point of losing control. You go ask Master Wuji, ask Hall Master Ge.The Nether Messenger didn't want to mess around here, so he took a breather: Last night, the three of us slept together in the same place, and no one wants to take risks by walking around.Before the end of the fifth watch, they all practiced the morning class together, and did not eat dry food until the red sun rose to the top of the mountain, packed up and set off to search.You insist that the person who tortured you by Pindao, the three-eyed tiger must have seen a ghost last night.Pindao does have the supernatural power of yin, but only fellows can see it when he is yin.What the three-eyed tiger saw could never be the original god of the poor.Moreover, Pindao never stays alive. I am a poisonous scholar, and I never leave anyone alive.The poisonous scholar who was more than ten steps away said loudly: If one more person is killed, one less person will waste food.If something like the three-eyed tiger falls into the hands of this scholar, if he survives, it must be because the sun rose from the west this morning. Master Xun coughed twice to attract everyone's attention. Little batian, don't be stupid.Master Xun put on a face of teaching others: It is almost delusional to want to inherit the status of your father as a domineering man like you.If you want to replace the title of the first martial arts master, you must have no hope in this life.Your efforts are completely in the wrong direction.Go about your business!Don't waste energy on those of us.The people from Xuanwu Sect disappeared like ghosts in the second half of the night, most likely because they caught the magic sword Taibao and took him away.You are also looking for the magic sword Taibao, any further delay will be in vain! With a sneer, the members of the Maitreya sect set off and rushed towards the county seat. It's really inexplicable.Hall Master Ge's voice was like thunder, and he also set off with members of the Black Dragon Gang. A potentially bloody conflict ended anticlimactically. Going back to the county to find clues is the only option. The deputy sect master of Xuanwu Sect can be found in the county, so it shouldn't be a problem to find it.The problem is that in the county town during the day, you can't draw your sword and bleed five steps in a fit of anger. You will have to go to the execution ground, and you have to use another safe method to negotiate. The Five Poisons of the Jianghu set off afterwards, and the master of Gongsun Shaobao also took people away with resentment.He is not confused, the five poisons of the world are not poisonous people who have earned their reputations. If the three three-eyed tigers were really captured to extract confessions, it would be impossible to keep them alive. The atmosphere in the county town was a bit tense, and the security personnel were very diligent. No matter it was night or night, they sent people to keep an eye on the tourists in the shop. People from Xuanwu Sect disappeared without a trace, and it is said that Deputy Sect Master Wang has gone to Kaifeng to pick up business!There are many excuses to avoid the limelight, and receiving bonuses is a ready-made excuse. One or two days, there was no rain in Miyun, and the whereabouts of the magic knife Taibao became a mystery, like a mud cow falling into the sea. To find the real secret mountain gate of Xuanwumen, it may take a thousand detective experts, maybe two thousand.In the past ten years or so, heroes from all walks of life have sent out a large number of people to investigate, but no one has ever found any clues.Afterwards, half of those determined to track down died mysteriously.In recent years, there seem to be only a handful of people who dare to come forward and call on the heroes to search. All friends in Jianghu know that once they can successfully control Xuanwumen, they will definitely be able to expand their operations and become a group that dominates Jianghu.The scope of Xuanwumen's killer industry is too narrow and lacks a macro plan. It may be that the leaders lack foresight and stick to the rules of the killer industry. Therefore, it has never been possible to form a large combination that dominates the world. There should be an ambitious and courageous leader .There are quite a few ambitious people in Jianghu Dao who want to annex or unite Xuanwumen, but unfortunately, I have not heard of anyone who has successfully become the owner of Xuanwumen. This Weilinbao little tyrant is one of the careerists with great ambitions. He plans to eradicate Xuanwumen if he can't subdue Xuanwumen. After surrendering and working harder, he will surely become the king of the rivers and lakes; if he is eradicated, Weilinbao's prestige will be at the height of the sky, and he will be a ready-made tyrant, replacing the leader of the martial arts is just around the corner. The abacus is very delicate, and whether it can be successful still needs to be worked hard. At noon on the third day, Tang Qingsong and Miao Jian appeared at the Yuelai Inn outside Nanguan. They were in a mess and lost all their luggage, except for Tang Qingsong's sheath bag.Fortunately, the waist pockets and treasure bags of the two are still there, and all the money has been preserved.Money can turn ghosts around, as long as you keep the gold and silver, it doesn't matter if you lose all your belongings. This kind of low-level inn can only accommodate a limited number of tourists, almost all of them are down-and-out, and there are usually no tourists staying at noon. When they passed through the city from north to south, they had already attracted the attention of interested people.As soon as he arrived at the counter, he took out the guide card, and two big men followed Tang Qingsong from the left, leaning against the counter on the left, with strange eyes staring at the guide he pushed towards the counter, and the sneer at the corner of his mouth was surprising . It's really like the two big blue wolves with painted faces following and spying on the hunter, and the lone wolf who is ready to attack the hunter suddenly at any time.Insidious, vigilant, vicious, and patient, hunters often die under the sharp teeth and claws of this wolf, which is very terrifying. Is Lu Yin real?A big man asked with a sinister smile. I am a person of status in Guanzhong Xi'an Prefecture, so I don't need to break the law and use forged guides.He also smirked: It seems that there are very few incidents of government rebellion in your land, and the people in your land are quite lucky.My lord, I was robbed of my luggage by a group of mobs. I will not complain to the government in your locality, and I will not cause you to be chased and beaten. Don't worry! It means: don't force the people to rebel. Nine out of ten riots in the local area are caused by the powerful local traffic officials.Xuanwumen must have colluded with the government, and riots are very likely.These words were a blunt warning that the two agents had better not start a riot. If we dare to reappear, we have the ability to cause riots.Miao Jian also stepped up the pressure: If a massacre with countless casualties occurs in your place at night, the two of you know who should be responsible and how to eliminate the impending catastrophe, right? Did the two overestimate their abilities?The big man's sinister smile disappeared, and he was a little embarrassed to get off the stage. Yeah?Do you think that the two of us can survive until now, not because of superhuman ability?Tang Qingsong raised his voice. The main reason why we are forced into such a mess is that we don't want to shock the world, and we have a lot of patience, not a lack of ability.Miaojian strengthens the pressure: With our magical sword Miaojian, we will definitely change the color of the world by invoking power.More than 20 years ago, when the emperor returned to his hometown, he was passing through your land. He was forced to run for 300 miles all day and night by the Heaven Slashing Evil Saber, and he dared not stop until he fled to Nanyang.God knows how many heads will fall to the ground with my brother's magic sword.What is certain is that his divine sword is by no means inferior to the Heavenly Zhanxie Sword.Hey hey, do you want the magic knife to show its power?Don't be stupid, let go and let the person responsible come forward to deal with it!It's none of your business, can you go somewhere else?We will not take the initiative to cause trouble. I will open my eyes wide and stretch my ears to pay attention to your movements, hum!The big man pulled his companion angrily, and walked out of the store with heavy feet. The shopkeeper handed over the registered route guide, shook his head helplessly and smiled wryly.Whether it is a blessing or a curse, there is no way to avoid a disaster; it is impossible for a shop owner to refuse tourists to stay, and whether it is a blessing or a disaster can only be at the mercy of God. The guest officer is tolerant of raising his hands high.The shopkeeper took the passenger registration book and begged helplessly. Do not worry!We will leave tomorrow.Tang Qingsong reassured the shop assistant. How can the shopkeeper be at ease.Stay overnight, long night, many accidents, anything can happen. Around the end of the card, he appeared in the alley at the west end of Nanguan Street and found a blacksmith shop.The iron shop makes farm implements and vehicles, as well as some knives and utensils. It is a well-known iron shop in the local area. Can you make me this inverted-bladed single-edged short halberd immediately?He took out a rough drawing and handed it to the shopkeeper: I can wait. The shopkeeper looked at it for a moment, then put down the picture and stared at him. It is a very simple modified short halberd, but if the guest officer needs it urgently, the weight cannot be accurately grasped, and the difference between the upper and lower is about four taels.Spikes and hooks, do you want to use spout?Use the mouth to open the front. Outside the store door, a poisonous scholar in fluttering green shirt stepped into and leaned beside him. This thing is used to kill people, how can it be sharp if it doesn't smear?Even the hoe needs to be sprayed, otherwise digging a few pieces of soil will lose some of the hoe!Simply use strong steel, the price is three times higher, this brother can afford it. Damn it!Are you haunted?He laughed and scolded wildly, but he was not angry: it is useless for you to follow, I will not be your executioner, it is really not smart to follow closely. We only ask you to deal with a person who has great profound arts, only you can deal with him. Forgive me, I'm not a murderer who is ungrateful for profit, please ask another master.He turned to the shopkeeper: there is no need to use the mouthwash, this thing is not for killing people, it can break more than 200 bones of the opponent if it is hooked and thrown desperately.There is no need to use the jab with the sharp point, the function is to push the opponent away.The opponent wears chain mail, and the sharp point is useless.The barbs hook onto the chain mail, which works great.The weight is between three catties, six taels and twelve taels, you can decide. He intentionally released the wind to let interested people know the weapons he built, who he was going to deal with, and let interested people know his plan and determination.After he left the store, someone must have come to check. If the guest officer is determined to hook people, it is better to buy a stick to keep the guest in, and saw it in half.The master shopkeeper didn't mind his bloody words, so he kindly offered suggestions. The nature of keeping a guest is similar to that of a hook and sickle spear. It is a long weapon for defensive capture.Generally, in villages and towns with self-defense capabilities, Zhuangyong is used to deal with bandits and robbers, and its shape is similar to a hook and sickle spear. No, it's too light.He refused: I'll wait for half an hour. Okay, five taels of silver. Here is your five taels of silver.He took out a piece of broken silver and paid the bill first. We really need to talk, buddy.The poisonous scholar entangled him: there are many monsters and monsters who came to make up your mind Your five poisons are one of the monsters, ghosts and monsters, and they are so annoying.He sarcastically sarcastic. As long as you accept our offer and immediately leave the country with us, you can get rid of them and stay away from danger.We have reached an agreement with those people, as long as you have something to go to, other people will immediately give up fighting for it.The grievances and grievances between you and Xuanwumen will be safe after you leave the country.The poisonous scholar explained his pros and cons, and tried to win his vote: To tell you the truth, our hope is all in you, and you will be our guest of honor.This is also a great opportunity for you to stand out in the future and become a man of the world. With official support, the status will of course improve.The fourth tyrant raised the top of the emperor, and served as the head of the patrol camp of the Salt Bureau for Yan Maoqing, a treacherous imperial envoy. He became an official celebrity and made millions of fortunes. Who would not envy his friends in the world. The censor Wang Daren, the master of the Five Poisons of Jianghu, is also an imperial envoy, and he is also an imperial envoy who can tour the world. Although his authority is not as good as that of Yan Jian, his status as an imperial envoy is equal. There was tinkling sound from the blacksmith workshop behind the shop, but it didn't affect their conversation. It only raised the sound level to suppress the noise of work, so the guys in the shop could hear their conversation. I am already a well-known figure in the Jianghu, and I might replace the status of the Big Batian as the Four Batians in the Jianghu soon!He refused the temptation, and put forward an ambitious intention that made the other party frightened: don't look for me again, okay?I have an inscrutable fear of Xuan Gong, and I can't deal with the person you want to deal with.Go find Master Wuji!His sorcery can help you succeed. We can't find someone in Maitreya Then go to Hall Master Ge.The brothers of the Black Dragon Gang organized the Black Eagle Society, and the killer assassins they raised were ten times more powerful than the killers of the Xuanwumen.Hall Master Ge will borrow generals from the Black Eagle Society, and he will surely succeed. They are rebellious heroes against the imperial court, they are not in harmony with the Maitreya Sect, and they will inevitably encounter disasters.brother Don't waste your time on me, I'm very busy!Go ahead!He ignored it and entered the blacksmithing workshop behind the hall.The heat wave hits people, the workshop is chaotic, and the poisonous scholars are unwilling to follow in, so they obediently leave the shop. On the way back to the inn, I stepped into the street full of pedestrians from the alley, and there were two people beside me, with the scent of lavender fresh in my nose.Turning his head, he saw a handsome scholar in blue shirt, and a boy dressed as a school boy.The scholar looks like a young man with a weak crown, and he really has a bit of a scholarly temperament, with delicate facial features, only the slanted eyebrows reveal a handsome charm. oh!The barbed iron in Xiongtai's hand looks like a short halberd, what is its function?The young scholar asked with a smile, following him and walking side by side. He smiled, and he could tell at a glance that it was a fake. The slightly thicker eyebrows flying obliquely were processed and redrawn with eyebrow pencil. In those days, it was a matter of course for men to put incense on their bodies, and even put powder on them.Since ancient times, dudes have been called Fufentanlang, which means makeup and fragrance.There are more than 2,000 names and production methods of spices listed in ancient and modern incense books, one third of which are exclusively for men; the other third are for women; the last third are for various living rooms. Fan Xun is used for worshiping gods, worshiping Buddha, bathing and so on. Used to forcefully cross Guanshan.He didn't want to touch the quilt, smiled and flicked the short halberd twice, and there was a strong sound of breaking wind. If this beautiful girl dressed as a man is a lady from a wealthy family, of course she doesn't understand the meaning of his words. There is no pass built within hundreds of miles nearby, so how can there be any need to force it?A fake scholar is not a boudoir who doesn't come out of the door but is weak, and he can understand what he said: the wine and food at Zuibaiju on the East Street in the city are very good. oh!you My surname is Zhao.Xiongtai must be a foreigner, where is the fairyland Small place, Guanzhong, surnamed Tang, Tang Qingsong.He is clear in his heart that this fake scholar is looking for him specially, and he has the same temperament as him: he has caused some troubles in expensive land, and the loss is not light, and he is currently besieged on all sides, so he needs to use special weapons to cross Guanshan. Brother Tang Forgive me for refusing brother Zhao's invitation. I don't want to cause trouble for you. If there are problems, I can handle them myself.goodbye.With a wave of his hand, he hurried away, turned around ten steps away and called: Hey!The weather is hot, your bold eyebrows are out of shape!Your slender hands exposed outside the cuffs are so cute, ha ha! Amidst the strange laughter, he ran away. hateful!Cursing and stomping came from the fake scholar behind him. He was amused, the fake scholar aroused his interest and left a vivid impression on him.He was thinking: Hope is not looking for his enemies. Here, except Miaojian, are his enemies or semi-enemies. He was waiting, waiting for the accident to happen. Hiding in the inn during the day will not cause accidents, which means that he is cut off from the outside world and is deaf and blind. He must go out and walk around in order to attract the attention of interested people and know how many dragons and snakes are haunting him. The two appeared in the Ruyi Tea House in Nanguan, drinking tea comfortably in the pergola.The weather is hot, and the locust trees around the pergola can enjoy the coolness and dissipate a lot of heat. It is a good place for leisure.There were a lot of tea guests, some idlers gathered at several tables to chat, some were playing chess, some were chatting and laughing. To prevent accidents, the two of them had to carry weapons, and the swords were hidden inside the long gowns, which were so wide that it was difficult to see them on the outside. In Tang Qingsong's hand, he was holding the newly made short halberd.In fact, it is not like a weapon at all, but like an iron rod with a hook attached. The tip is a blunt cone that cannot stab people.Originally, the cross-shaped cross-cutting front of the halberd was straight, and one end was cylindrical.He changed it to a double hook shape, and the entire halberd head has seven like arrows.Therefore, if you hold it in your hand, you will not be punished as a weapon; it is forbidden to carry a sword in the city. This thing weighs three catties and twelve taels, and it can cause serious injury when hit on the human body.If the pure awl at the front of the halberd is used with real strength, it can also penetrate the human body.Being caught by the double hooks on both sides, the disaster is even more serious, and it has the function of a hand hook. The short halberd was placed on the tea table, its strange shape attracted people's attention, and it achieved the purpose of declaring force. The effect of the demonstration was amazing, showing that he was no longer weak and challenged his persecutors. In remote places outside the city, the enemy can chase him unscrupulously, hunt him down, and surround him to kill him.But when he walked openly in the city, no one dared to openly shout at him to kill him. The only ones to worry about are those with two combinations: Wellinburg and Xuanwumen.The offal of Weilinbao, in the Wuhuling mountain area, pretends to be a killer and robber, and there is a high possibility of assassination and surprise attacks on the street. Xuanwumen was originally a group of killers. Assassination and assassination are the normal means of the killer industry, and they are the skills of making a living. Assassinations in the street leave no traces, and the use of hidden weapons is superb, making it impossible to guard against.But the killers of this sect rarely use assassination and assassination methods, and mainly use a large number of people to make surprise attacks. It is impossible for the opponent to be on guard for many years. Once the opportunity is seized, the success of the attack is almost completely guaranteed.Over the past ten years, there have been only a handful of cases where the victim has been compensated due to failure, and the success rate has been astonishing and well-known, making it an evergreen tree in the killer industry. After drinking two cups of tea, an imposing middle-aged man in green shirt appeared next to the table. He dragged out of the bench and sat down. Miaojian is in his early half century, and he has lived more than ten years longer than the big man, and has quite a status in the world.The big man has no reason to pretend to be a man with an arrogant demeanor.Therefore, Miao Jianying's eyes flashed cold electricity, and extreme displeasure could be seen in his expression. In the next sword, Chen Kui, the friend of the Lord Gongsun of Weilin Castle.The big man in the green shirt ignored Miaojian's displeasure, and proudly announced his name to Tang Qingsong, with an even stronger expression of arrogance: Brother Gongsun Shaobao has some disputes with you that need to be resolved urgently. Is there anything wrong? There have been many conflicts in the past, and many people in Weilinbao have been abolished. There is no need to spend more words, and there is no need to keep secrets.Dealing with Xuanwumen was really effective, and it was easy to exchange for the two captured people. After showing his name with one sword and three masters, and then showing the signboard of Weilinbao, Tang Qingsong was a bit shorter, and he was destined to be at the mercy of the other party. You bastard has no shame.Tang Qingsong can bear it, but Miao Jian can't bear it!He slapped the table and started yelling: Your attitude is justified!Or is it a question of guilt?With friends like you in Weilinbao, chivalrous people in the world will be ashamed.Do you look like a dog, like a chivalrous hero who upholds justice?Shit! How could one sword and three masters withstand such harsh abuse?Raising his left hand quickly, Megatron Jianghu's heart-breaking palm slaps his chest. He has already practiced his left palm, and this palm is within reach and he is determined to get it. Miao Jian had been on guard for a long time, he twisted his body halfway, and let the opponent's palm close to his chest brush past, his right hand twitched back, and gave the opponent a slap in the face with a bang.The speed of both sides is faster than lightning, and the outcome is determined by one move, there is no chance to change the move and dodge, this palm is solid. Yijian Sanjue let out an uh, backed away violently, tripped over a bench, knocked over a neighboring table, managed to steadied his horse and did not fall down, his mouth immediately bled, he spat out two or three broken teeth with a bah, and his eyes blew up. In the darkness, the right hand frantically grabbed the sword target, trying to block subsequent attacks with the sword. Miao Jian didn't take advantage of the victory to chase after him, and he helped up the overturned bench as if nothing had happened. There are many friends who take care of troubles to prevent disasters, no wonder everyone wants to be the overlord of the rivers and lakes.Miao Jian glanced at the three swords and said to himself: Someone should know that there is a price to be paid for being an eagle dog for the overlord. It was too late to draw the One Sword and Three Absolute Swords, but was supported by a middle-aged woman dressed as a servant, holding his hand that drew the sword, preventing him from pulling it out. Can you support it?The middle-aged woman seemed to be expressing condolences: You are too reckless to underestimate the enemy, you are lucky that your head was not broken!Don't be brave anymore, you haven't finished what the young castle master told you! The two must be accomplices, the middle-aged woman is the person in charge of coordinating, there is no time to coordinator, the changes are too fast, no one has time to intervene. One Sword and Three Skills finally stabilized, the dizziness disappeared, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his waist scarf, stared hard at Miaojian but didn't dare to pounce on it. What nonsense do you want to accuse me of, can you explain it in detail?Tang Qingsong sat on the stool with a calm expression, and said to the three swordsmen who were about to be furious: Although you have a few big teeth knocked out, you can still express your meaning if you speak slowly, let's talk!I am listening. You know the Temple of Ten Sages outside the north gate, right?Yijian Sanjue gritted his teeth and said, two or three big teeth were broken, and it did not affect his articulation. Only when the front teeth fell out did his speech leak, and his articulation was unclear. You know, when I returned to the city from Xuanyuan Hill, I passed the Temple of Ten Sages. At noon, Master Gongsun Shaobao is waiting for you to go to the Temple of Ten Sages to discuss theory. I never do such boring things, I ask him to come to me when I have something to do.The Yuelai Inn outside Nanguan is easy to find, don't say he doesn't know the way.At least those of you who call him little Batian's henchmen know how to get to the Yuelai Inn.get out!You are not worthy to give orders like a human being in front of me.Every word Tang Qingsong said was deafening, and he was about to get angry, so he grabbed the short halberd and flicked it twice: Whoever dares to be rude in front of my magic knife Taibao, the grandfather will make him regret it forever. With a knife, it is easy to miss and cause casualties; with this short halberd, it will not have the edge to kill people, just injure people, and if you use a well-measured shot, you will not be killed in one hit.Breaking hands and feet, of course, the beaten person will regret it forever. You will regret it if you don't show up.Yijian Sanjue gritted his teeth and said, knowing the effect of intimidation, put aside the intimidation words, and left in embarrassment. The tea shed is set up in the large yard in front of the store. Passers-by on the street may see the scene of the tea shed clearly, and there are people outside looking in from the yard.The middle-aged woman did not retreat with Yi Jian San Jue, and approached their table with a calm expression. Your knife is called a magic knife?asked the middle-aged woman. That's right.Tang Qingsong pointed to Miaojian: his sword is called Miaojian.The magic sword is a perfect match, and it is very loud. Is it too exaggerated?The middle-aged woman had a look of disapproval on her face. The four overlords of the rivers and lakes are even more exaggerated.The big tyrant is nicknamed Qiankun Yijian, the second tyrant is called Wanjiasheng Buddha, the third tyrant is called Tianma Xingkong, and the fourth tyrant is called Pulling Mountains and Juding.我兩人稱神刀妙劍，已經相當謙虛啦！雖然凡夫俗子供拜成千上萬個神，畢竟誰也沒見過真的神現身，用神通當面移山倒海送給愚民們金山銀山，誰也不知道到底有多厲害，稱神刀同樣令人懷疑不知是啥玩意哪！ 如果我要領教你的刀法，你接受嗎？ 那是無聊。他一口喝乾一杯茶冷冷一笑：生死關頭我才會動刀，刀一出鞘不是你死就是我活。你我無仇無怨，你用領教的心態玩自己的命不要緊，重要的是你忘了命是不能玩的，我不會毫無理性地殺人。勞駕你轉告小霸天，要他不要枉送許多爪牙的性命，我不會再忍受他的凌逼不斷下毒手，反擊將空前慘烈。想取代四霸天地位的江湖群雄多得很，當然我也是其中之一。這位小霸天如果死在我的刀下，我取代大霸天的機會將升至巔峰 你一個西安府的地方性痞棍，居然妄想取代大霸天，簡直是癡人說夢，妄想成癡想一步登天。中年婦人挖苦他，臉色不正常：你很自負，是嗎？ 是自信。他糾正對方的話：自從在下踏入五虎嶺武林首傑的地盤，便與不少江湖豪霸級高手名宿打交道，感覺出所謂天下級豪強，不過如此而已，他們能在江湖叱吒風雲，我為何不能？所有的天下級風雲人物，絕大多數是從地方性小人物，努力奮鬥出生入死，幸而打出一片天躋身超級豪霸之林。我神刀太保同樣有野心稱霸江湖，能宰掉小霸天，可說已成功了十之八九，他找我等於是甘心做我稱霸江湖的墊腳石，真是愚不可及。 他這番話說得信心十足，豪氣飛揚，意識中他已重回西安，四周軍刀如林，他舉刀叱吒風雲，處境比在青松寨兇險百倍，是西安府強龍中的強龍，向天下級強龍的途徑努力發展，有信心打出他應有的一片天。 中年婦人被他的氣勢所懾，心虛地扭頭便走。 妙劍也臉色一變，眉心緊鎖。 血氣方剛年輕氣盛，再加上有幾分才藝，經常會犯下魯莽衝動不顧後果的毛病。如果再具有野心慾望，很可能任性而為掀起狂風暴雨，追逐名利成為驚世的超強人物。 他舉目四顧，四周走散了的茶客，正陸續回座，每個人都用驚疑的目光向他注視，似乎把他看成瘟神。 他有點歉然，覺得在大庭廣眾間示威，做得有點過分了，他無權引起市民恐慌，更不該波及無辜，任何衝突，都會連累不相關的人遭殃。 你在想些什麼？妙劍看出他在思考，關切地問。 我打算到十賢祠。他表現決心。 闖刀山劍海？妙劍大感不安。 早晚他們會像一群瘋狗撲上來的，早些解決以免天天擔心提防他們襲擊。 確是如此，咱們不可能預先知道他們何時發動突襲。在雙川集，你我幸好及時撤出保住了老命，幸運不會再次降臨在你我頭上。 他兩人打聽消息不易，怎能預知對方何時何地發起突襲？天天提防日子難過。拼死活的一天必定會到來，早些了斷是上策。妙劍話中的用意，就表示同意他的打算。 只要不被堵死在絕地裏，你我一刀一劍配合無困難。在西安，我可以應付十名帶甲護衛的圍攻。他豪情勃發，信心十足：這些土雞瓦狗，何足道哉？ I know.妙劍離座：咱們先回店準備，在刀劍的配合上仔細參詳。 結賬離去，兩人顯得神釆飛揚。 得寸進尺，威麟堡公然在玄武門的山門所在地，與仇敵用武力解決糾紛，以為名頭聲威吃定了玄武門。玄武門立即無條件釋放了他們的兩個人，就是不敢招惹威麟堡承認強權的表現。消息傳出了，玄武門的威望受到考驗。茶坊交涉是在公眾場合，消息傳出立即引人注目。 一劍三絕被打掉幾顆大牙的消息，也是同時傳出的。這位與江湖四霸天輩分名頭幾乎相等的俠義道名宿，被人打掉幾顆大牙，幾乎令人懷疑其真實性。但經有心人打聽，證實消息可靠，立即產生震撼性的效果，那些仍然懷疑神刀妙劍武功可能誇大的人，態度轉變心中凜凜。 十賢祠在北門外不遠處，片刻可到。穿城自南至北，只有三里左右。從南關外的悅來客棧前往，要不了兩刻時辰，因此午牌初，兩人仍在店內逗留。他們不需事先前往偵查，對方必然傾巢而至，不能因為對方佈下大陣，就心怯畏縮不前。他兩人已拒絕前往赴約，因此去與不去都不影響他們的威信，所以有權自由行動，何時前往有自主權。 預計將會發生猛烈兇險的決定性惡鬥，讓對手等得心浮氣躁，也是攻心手段之一。一劍三絕聲稱不見不散，並非過時不候，拖延時間，對他兩人有利。 眼看炎陽當頂，午正的鐘聲從鐘鼓樓傳遍全城，他兩人仍在客棧的膳堂進食，神態悠閒，毫無動身赴約的徵兆，把監視的眼線急得像熱鍋上的螞蟻。 每策定一次行動計畫，得花許多心血安排，一旦計畫失敗取消，下一次將多花費三兩倍精力策劃佈置，是否有機會重新佈局無法掌握，更難保證必可成功，因此這次機會必須把握，恐怕不會有下次的機會了。 餐罷正在喝餐後茶，那位假書生的假書童，輕靈似貓閃入膳堂，直趨兩人桌旁。 店堂來了一男兩女，女的自稱姓黃，很美很美。假書童沖唐青松做鬼臉：向店伙查詢你的房間，趕快回房，她們快到你的客房找你啦！ What the hell!她怎麼也跟來了？他感到渾身不自在，置杯而起向妙劍說：我迴避她，從店後走。 相見不如不見？妙劍盯著他笑得邪邪地。 nonsense. oh!你們說的話是什麼意思呀？假書童愕然問。 不懂就不要問。他快步出堂：羅兄，碰上了勞駕你擋一擋。 不關我的事。妙劍拒絕：那不知好歹有多重性格的鬼女人，我唯一的想法是狠揍她一頓。她是你的難題，我不便介入。hehe!我不反對你來一段江湖兒女情，問題是千萬別當真。論心計，你對付不了她。 我承認我對付不了她，你不要說風涼話。 兩人穿堂越舍急竄，假書童不便跟來，目送兩人消失在內堂的甬道折向處，眼中有疑惑的神色流露。 店伙領著黃如玉，和她的男女保鏢蔡忠、夏氏，盯著設有小統鋪簡陋客房發呆。客房可容納五六名旅客，比設有大統鋪的大客房稍高級些，除了唐青松和妙劍投宿之外，還沒有其他旅客落店。房中空空如也，兩人不在房中。 已經是正午。店伙直搓手：也許在膳堂進膳。但兩位客官是闊客，不一定肯在這裏進膳。小的領諸位前往客堂稍候，由小的前往相請。 不必了，也許他兩人已經前往北門了。黃如玉美麗的面龐流露出失望的神情：你這裏怎麼沒有像樣的單間上房接待他們？ 小店只是招待窮旅客的小客棧，哪有上房招待客官？店伙聳聳肩苦笑：唐爺兩位貴客為何在小店投宿，任何人都感到納悶呢！ 黃如玉不理會店伙訴苦，匆匆離去不再前往膳堂察看。踏出店門，門外背手微笑的假書生，有意無意地擋住去路，假書童也無意讓開。 我敢打賭，你這位美如天仙的小姐，手中的布卷裏，一定包了一把劍。假書生人生得俊，風流倜儻人才出眾，是令人一見便生好感的俏郎君，顯然有意搭訕，甚至近乎挑逗：本城很少有練劍的閨秀，小姐必定是途經敝地的武林英雄，絕不會在這種低下的客棧投宿，大概走錯了地方。小生是本地人，願盡地主之誼，替小姐領路，前往北門大街的高陞老店投宿，該店的上房通常招待官眷。oh!小生姓錢，名鋮，草字長春。可否有幸請教小姐的芳名？ 文縐縐笑容可掬，態度風趣中有誠懇，有讚美也暗含挑逗，最容易吸引小有才華的懷春少女動情。 女保鏢夏氏可不是懷春少女，而是飽經風霜有了丈夫的中年女人，對風流倜儻的俏郎君不但不動情，而且有反感，愈聽愈冒火，跨前兩步要發作了。 黃如玉手一伸，攔住要再進的夏氏，表示要自己出面處理。 我姓黃，河北岸人氏，第一次途經貴地。她的確對這位書生大有好感，見面的第一印象奇怪：聽你的口氣，你一定練劍有成。 弓馬刀劍，是學舍必練的武藝呀！假書生不再擋路，笑容更瀟灑：這一代的十大江湖大俠，全都是正式學舍出身的書生，不但文章國華，武藝更是高強，劍術尤其精湛。 每三十年是一世，也稱一代。 讀書人如果不做官，書劍遨遊天下，不但遊學，而且管些不平事。所管的事十之七八牽涉到官府，與官府作對，替受到冤屈迫害的平民百姓申冤。 這些人，對貪贓玩法的官吏恨之入骨。一些清廉正直的官吏，對他們極為尊崇，尊稱他們為江湖大俠，與江湖術士口中的江湖，完全是兩碼子事。 怎麼我沒聽說過什麼江湖十大俠？黃如玉聽得一頭霧水：這一代的江湖豪傑主宰江湖的人，眾所周知是武林四傑，和江湖四霸天，他們才是德高望重的江湖大俠呢！這些大俠從沒在任何學舍讀過書。他們的學識，都是聘請學究教授得來的。反而有幾個號稱至尊的邪魔外道，具有秀才甚至舉人身分。你所說的江湖十大俠 hehe!信口胡謅，騙你的啦！假書生爽朗地笑：每個人的心目中，都有心儀崇拜的人，稱聖賢稱大俠，高興怎麼叫就怎麼叫。 oh!你會自稱江湖大俠嗎？ this 你也必定文章國華，武藝高強，對不對？ 當然我不想自甘菲薄，自稱大俠又有何不可？我是本地有名氣的錢秀才，總有一天我會成為真正的江湖大俠。你是外地人，初來敝地，當然不知道我的名頭根柢啦！ 她當然不知道假書生曾經自稱姓趙，更不知道假書生知道她的底細。 那麼，你的劍術一定很了不起囉！她心中一動，油然興起利用本地人的念頭。 不是我自誇，在學舍我的劍術排名第一呢！假書生眉飛色舞，老王賣瓜，自賣自誇頗為得意。 北門外有人械鬥，要不要去看？ Hurrah!Here we go.假書生像是忘了落店的事，興高釆烈：可惜我沒帶劍 給你一把。錢秀才，看你好了。她取過夏氏手中用藍綾裹住的長劍，拋給假書生，有人打頭陣妙極了。 我不會讓你失望的。假書生接住劍欣然說。 進了城，女人的腳下就不能加快了。從南到北穿城而過，沿南北大街走，全程約三里左右，大街上行人絡繹不絕，女人快步走是不成體統的。五人不徐不疾向北走，錢書生與黃如玉並肩走在前面，不時交談腳下從容。 唐青松與妙劍剛走後不久，顯然在午正無法到達十賢祠，因此黃如玉並不急於前往觀察，也不知道唐青松是否前往赴約。 城北有一位本城的大爺，姓王，叫王十二，住在周家大院。錢公子，你認識這個人嗎？黃如玉利用機會探口風。 oh!Heard about this guy.假書生泰然自若回答：他是本城的爛人，爛得人見人怕。不要去招惹這個爛人，沾上了只有麻煩沒有好處的。 爛人？ 本城有名的所謂豪紳，有幾個稱為五霸七雄，都不是好東西，這個王十二就是五霸之一。周家大院的周老爺曾經做過知縣，退休至今已經五六年了，是王十二的姐夫，也不是一個好東西。 他是貴地的玄武門的副門主。 玄武門？好像的確有這麼一個匪類組織。但本城的人知道該門的人其實在許州，不在本城。本城的人，從來沒受到這些匪類的騷擾，懶得理會，也不知道他們到底隱藏在哪一座城鎮。oh!黃小姐，你要找他們？ 很想見見他們的門主。 你得去找王十二。假書生推得一乾二淨：我從來不曾與這些爛人交往，雖然同住在一座城。在街上偶然可以看到他走動，他還不配向我問安示好。 名門子弟，那些土豪身分低下，想高攀名門子弟談何容易？所以假書生把王十二稱做爛人。 王十二離城兩天了，找不到他的鬼影。黃如玉失望地說：看來，你並不知道城內外組幫結門的事。你是貴城的士紳子弟，王十二是豪紳土霸，身分地位相差天壤，難怪你不知道他是玄武門的副門主。 你如果在敝地需要幫助，我義不容辭，不要去找那些爛人，好嗎？ 也許真需要你的相助呢！talk about it later.黃如玉欲擒故縱，為未來爭取協助預下這步棋。 他對這位錢書生的印象極為良好，爭取本城高層人士為奧援，先取得人和，辦起事來可以減少許多阻力。她對自己的美貌充滿信心，有把握讓錢書生對她有求必應，甚至為她癡迷，供她利用奔走。至少，她知道有關王十二的一些根柢。雖然不算是秘密，但也算是稍深入的收穫。 畢竟我是東道主，本城的人好客成風，地當中原，甚有名氣的古都，好客是本城的傳統。小姐如需協助，我義不容辭。假書生慨然表示協助的誠意，逐漸靠近她身側，有擁挽她圖手眼溫存的意思。 她的看法卻另有詮釋，認為假書生靠近另有企圖，親近便表示對她有意，被她的美貌所吸引。男女一見鍾情是正常的反應，她本來就具有吸引異性的本錢。 她幾乎強烈地感覺出，假書生所散發出的男性吸引力，已影響到她的身心變化，引起她的共鳴。 貴地有一位姓趙的大家閨秀，身邊有不少武藝高強的隨從。她總算不曾意亂情迷，在江湖行走有一段時日，不再是懷春的少女，情懷已動仍然沒忘了探聽消息：她本人也非常了不起，她的武藝應該稱之為武功，不是你們大戶人家一時興起，所練的花拳繡腿 oh!你大概指的是北大街裕德坊趙家的趙文燕小姐。假書生接口：她祖父曾經做過刑部員外郎，正途進士出身，門外就建有進士第。這一世趙家都是知縣大人列管的官紳保護戶，不但僱有保鏢、護院、打手，自己養有豪僕，而且有捕房派出的巡捕不時巡防警戒，不明來歷的人接近，行跡稍有可疑，很可能公私兩面都遭殃。我見過她，但兩家甚少往來，她驕傲得像公主鳳凰，我不喜歡。你問她 我想交這位官紳名門閨秀做朋友 千萬不要，她們家不接待陌生的人。即使我前往她家拜望她的父祖，不一定能通過那三位門子的一關。三個門子都是彪形大漢，把拜帖往地下一丟，我的臉往哪裡放？我的家世比趙家差了一級。 地方的名流，通常分為官紳、士紳、豪紳。官紳，指仍有人做官的第一級名流；士紳，指進去有人做過官的大戶；豪紳，是草莽性濃厚的土霸，出身複雜的低階層龍蛇。官紳士紳的宅第，通常地方官必須加以保護，平民百姓得罪了官紳士紳，鐵定要遭殃日子難過，有理無理都得押入公堂受折磨，陌生人哪配前往拜望？管門禁的門子，就有權通報與否，除非能送給門子一份厚禮，不然拜帖必定被擲回。門子作威作福，天下各地的豪門都一樣。 這位假書生，明白表示具有士紳的家世，距官紳還有一段距離，與趙家並無特殊交情，對她想結交趙小姐的事並無幫助。 你的武藝，與趙家的護院相比 那是不能比的，也沒有比武的機會。本城有幾位曾經在嵩山少林寺習武的人，我看武藝不怎麼樣嘛！有兩位曾經在學舍傳授拳棒，比我差得多，曾經與趙家的保鏢有往來，比過武，好像難分勝負。 意思是說，假書生比出身少林的武師高明。 消息對她沒有多少幫助，只探聽出些本城人物的動態而已。她主要是著手瞭解玄武門，頗為失望。 沿途談談說說極為投緣，出了北門，行人漸稀，前面十賢祠在望。已經是午正過一刻，官道上旅客還沒上路呢！ 十賢祠只是一座有三進殿，規模中等的祠廟，平時罕見人跡，僅在公定的節日，由官府率領本城的名流行禮如儀，平常百姓不配前來拜祭，也無此必要。平常百姓只向神佛祈福求財求富貴，不向聖賢求福祿壽喜。 所供的十賢是唐朝的裴度
