Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Encounter on a narrow road
Fang Yi picked up Lu Jinhua and dragged her to the other side, followed by two horses. Fang Yi heaved a sigh of relief and saw that Lu Jinhua was still unconscious. When he checked his pulse, it was very normal. At first, he thought it was very strange. , Then he realized that her acupoints had been tapped, so he massaged her with his hands, his brows were deeply frowned, and he pondered for a long time before making a resolute decision. He took off the bag in the horse bag, because it was wrapped in oil, and the blanket inside It was still dry, he found a shelter from the wind, and took off Lu Jinhua's clothes one by one until there was nothing left!The jade body lay horizontally, his heart was beating violently, and his hands were trembling a little, but he rubbed his hands together without hesitation, and when his palms were hot, he pressed against Lu Jinhua's pointed breasts and gently rubbed At the beginning of the movement, the tentacles felt slippery and cool, like touching extremely fine silk and satin. Gradually, the palms of the hands felt warm. This was the feeling that the blocked acupoints were about to be unblocked. Fang Yi Rubbing became more cautious. At this time, the qi and blood channeled to the other party automatically broke through the barrier. He wanted to slowly lower his palm to weaken the internal force, but he suddenly felt something was wrong. Hard lump, could it be that the part of her restraint was hurt badly, and the bruise has condensed into a lump, that is no joke
So he stopped his hands, moved his palms and looked at it, he was stunned, the suet-like breasts were slightly red due to rubbing, the flat nipples were originally a ring of light red areola, at this moment But the tips protrude into two tender red grapes!Fang Yi didn't understand what was going on, and the master who taught him martial arts didn't tell him about this phenomenon. He didn't know that it was a girl's physiological phenomenon. Lu Jinhua was a girl in her twenties, and girls who practiced martial arts developed especially early. The breast is the most easily stimulated part. This is a natural instinctive impulse. Although the caregiver is still in a coma, the physiological feelings and reactions have not stopped.Just when he was inexplicable, Lu Jinhua woke up suddenly, opened her eyes and saw that she was completely naked from the upper body, and was hugged in Fang Yi's arms. She didn't think about it, and she forgot the previous narrow escape. She only had an intuitive feeling in her heart. Thought, followed by a sudden reaction!
With a violent struggle, he raised his hand and slapped Fang Yi's face, causing Fang Yi to stagger, and cursed angrily: "The prostitute!You are so brave!Fang Yi received a slap, knew that the other party had misunderstood, and quickly jumped away from her second slap, eager to explain, but only opened his mouth, and suddenly thought that these things could never be explained clearly in words, but I can't say a second word more.Therefore, he only choked out the word "I" and immediately closed his mouth. Seeing that Lu Jinhua picked up the two knives from the ground and rushed towards him desperately, in desperation, he picked up the wet clothes on the ground and threw them at her. past.Lu Jinhua only saw a bunch of things being thrown, and picked it up with a knife, only to realize that it was her clothes. Because of the clothes, she remembered that she was still naked.Just now in a hurry, she only cared about desperately, but at this moment, the girl's instinct of shame was aroused, she hurriedly covered her chest with her hands, threw down the two knives, and wrapped the blanket around her body. This is Xu Tianwei's horse bag with Xu Tianwei in it. She didn't ask about the gender of the little gown and trousers, she picked up one and put it on hastily.
After buttoning up his clothes, he immediately picked up his two knives, and when he tried to find Fang Yi again, he saw that Fang Yi had gone far away, leaving only a line of footprints on the snow.Lu Jinhua gritted her teeth, with tears of embarrassment in her eyes, she dragged the horse, and was about to get on it, when she heard a moaning sound in her ear, she hurriedly searched for it, but saw Xu Tianwei was soaked through, Leaning against a big rock, gasping for breath, with a long lance lying on one side, a sword wound on his chest, and a silver dart nailed to his rib!This discovery made Lu Jinhua forget about chasing her again, she hurried over to help Xu Tianwei, and asked eagerly: Master!What's wrong with you?Xu Tianwei struggled to get up, went in front of the horse, first took out a tin jug from the horse bag, which contained strong wine to dispel the cold, took a few sips before taking out the additional gold wound medicine, and applied it to the place where the sword was cut.Lu Jinhua was the concubine, and at the same time took off the silver dart on his ribs, luckily it didn't go deep into the flesh, while applying the medicine, at the same time tore a piece of dry cloth to wrap the wound, and asked at the same time: Master!what's wrong with you
Xu Tianwei heaved a sigh of relief, and said softly: "Golden flower!I can be regarded as a human being in two lives. Fortunately, by a strange coincidence, I met the hero above, otherwise you and I will be finished!Fang Daxia?You're talking about that whore!Xu Tianwei was taken aback for a moment: A prostitute?Fang Daxia?Lu Jinhua was so angry that tears flowed down again, she jumped and shouted: "It's him, master, you don't know how bad he is, just now he didn't care how generous she was, and he didn't have the courage to tell what happened just now, but Xu Tianwei smiled wryly He said: Jinhua!I know what's going on.You don't know!I know, I've been watching for a while!Lu Jinhua was startled, and then called out: Master!You watched him bully me, why didn't you come out and kill him?golden flower!You are blaming the wrong person, Fang Daxia is not a prostitute, he is trying to save you, do you know what you are plotting?I don’t know, I was overtaken by a boat in the water, and the old man surnamed Guo dragged me into the water, I was still struggling, and when I was sent to the boat, I only felt a pain in my chest, as if I was hit by something After a while, I won’t know it in the future!
This is the acupuncture technique performed by the eunuch surnamed Hong. It is a very vicious technique called Duanyin Hand, which is specially used to deal with women. The acupuncture point is under the breasts. If you don't rescue it immediately, it will lead to permanent disability. , and cause much unspeakable pain!What kind of pain is it?You are a girl, so I shouldn’t tell you, but it’s better to let you know, so that you can understand the dangers of the human heart: the victims of this method will change from a chaste woman to a prostitute, and a day without a man will The body is like being stabbed with needles, because this technique can block the blood meridians, making the blood vessels blocked and congested in the lower vagina. Son?Xu Tianwei sighed and said: How many good eunuchs can have, they are not humane, so they have developed such a vicious method to be a bitch!Lu Jinhua didn't seem to understand, so Xu Tianwei had no choice but to continue to explain: Eunuchs are still men fundamentally, and they also have a lustful nature, but they are not completely men. Can it cater to their almost bestial venting?
Only now did Lu Jinhua understand it with a half-knowledge. Thinking of what happened to her, she couldn't help feeling palpitations. Xu Tianwei suddenly said again: "Jinhua!This method must be thoroughly removed. Take a look to see if there are two bruises on the spot!Although Lu Jinhua was embarrassed, but the matter was of great importance, she had to turn her face away, undressed and inspected it, and then said embarrassingly: "Yes, it's as big as a finger!"Xu Tianwei let out a sigh of relief: That's all right. Fortunately, Fang Daxia came to the rescue in time. To get rid of this trick, you must have a master with excellent internal strength. Dare to disturb him!Lu Jinhua blushed and said: Master!Now that you have caught up, why don't you rescue me yourself and let a strange man do it for me? Do you relieve the acupoint? Even if I am willing to sacrifice my life to save you, I still have more energy than I want!
Lu Jinhua blushed, at this moment she couldn't help feeling very sorry for Fang Yi, from shame to hatred, she gritted her teeth and yelled, "That dog thief surnamed Hong, next time I see him, I will definitely stab him Can't dismember the body!Xu Tianwei sighed softly: Let's talk about the matter of revenge slowly, but the slap you slapped Hero Fang seems to have wronged him too much!In that situation, how would I know, who told him not to explain!He can't say it!Why, since he has a clear conscience, he can explain it clearly!Xu Tianwei sighed and said, I forgot to tell you, he has a strange problem, he only speaks one word in every sentence, if he talks to someone with two words, the other person will not be able to live, they must die under his sword!What's wrong with this?That's not clear, I only know that he recently killed eight martial arts masters in Jinling, Liuhe, Danyang and other places. The brother happened to be hiding aside, only to find out that he had this problem, and gave him the nickname Yizi Anjian!
This nickname is inappropriate, he is very decent!Xu Tianwei sighed again: "He may not lose his integrity, but his fault is too evil, and his swordsmanship is also extremely weird. The four characters of vicious and vicious are all taken up. Demon Sword II Words are not inappropriate to describe him!Lu Jinhua murmured the word "magic sword" twice in her mouth, and then asked again: Master!How did you get hurt?Fang Yi and I boarded the big boat, he was fighting fiercely with Qiu Kuang, suddenly I heard your horse neighing, I knew you were in danger, I asked him to save you, I continued to fight with Qiu Kuang, this man's swordsmanship was terrible It was okay to deal with it, but the method was too despicable, and he hit me with a dart and then slashed me with a sword. I was injured and fell into the river, and I swam over desperately.Lu Jinhua said silently for a moment: I really didn't expect the opponent to have so many masters!Qiu Kuang is still a deputy. Liu Yuanlin, the head teacher of Xichang, is even more difficult to provoke. This person was well-known in the world ten years ago. We went to meet up with Tiannan Sansha, it seems that it will not be easy for our batch of missed darts to get back!
So what do we do?Naturally, we can't give up. Marshal Zuo went west to suppress the thieves, and the food and salaries are controlled by the powerful and traitors. He relied on this batch of hidden funds to help him. Nothing can fall into the hands of the other party. It's just that the strength of the two of us is not enough. I'm going to Sanliuzhuang to invite some of my old friends out to face the difficulties together!You mean the Four Sages of Liulin?They have long since disappeared!I know it's not easy to invite them out, but it's a last resort, and apart from the four of them, I really can't find anyone who can help!They used to be Marshal Zuo's aides, and they broke up because of disagreements. If you ask them to come out to help, will they agree?Xu Tianwei sighed and said: Zuo Liangyu is self-willed, doesn't accept loyal advice, and even looks down on people in the Jianghu, that's why the Four Sages go away, but his loyalty to the country is worthy of admiration, not to mention that the Four Sages are also gentlemen. He is willing to do this, and Marshal Zuo is quite regretful, otherwise he would not have given us the secret map of the hidden gold, so I have to give it a try!
The question is whether you can make it to Sanliu Village in time, that Qiu Kuang will not relax!Xu Tianwei laughed and said: "Chou Kuang is nothing to be afraid of. He can't live today, but he won't live tomorrow. If he can't take care of himself, is he still alive to chase us?"How do you say this?You forgot, not long ago, Fang Yi talked to him for more than one word, and he was the first one on the list of the one-word magic sword to kill him!Can Fang be able to kill him?If the one-word magic sword can't kill him, we have no choice but to accept our fate, but I believe that Fang Daxia will definitely kill him. You slapped him just now, and he hurried away. Most likely he was anxious to find revenge, otherwise he would have to kill him with his mouth. I can't say anything, and I can explain things clearly with a pen. No one would admit the word "thief"!
Because of the reasonable explanation of the matter, Lu Jinhua felt extremely sorry in her heart. At the same time, because of the nondescript clothes on her body, she thought of the scene of being naked in Fang Yi's arms, and an inexplicable feeling aroused in her heart. The strange young man who met with him actually started to worry about him, and asked anxiously: Master, Qiu Kuang himself is very good at martial arts, and there are so many masters around him, and the eunuch surnamed Hong is also a master of the inner family , can he go alone?Xu Tianwei sighed: "I don't think there will be any problems with him. You have seen his sword skills, fierce and fierce, just like a tiger!"Two fists can't beat four hands, and a hero can't hold back a lot of people!Xu Tianwei looked at her and said: "Jinhua, we are mud bodhisattvas crossing the river now, we can't protect ourselves, and we don't have the energy to worry about others!"Lu Jinhua said disapprovingly: Master!He has done so much for us and saved us, we should support him morally, not to mention that the target he wants to hunt is also our enemy!Xu Tianwei frowned and said: Golden Flower!You mean to go back and help him, don't forget that we have more important tasks!
Master!I shyly said: "Go to Sanliu Village to invite the Four Sages of Liulin, they may not be willing to help, even if they are willing, they may not be better than the one surnamed Fang Xu Tianwei waved his hands repeatedly and said: Jinhua!"Don't expect Fang Yi to help us, he does things because he is happy, if he is not happy, it is useless to ask!He didn't just happen to be helping us today!That was his momentary pleasure, you'd better forget about him, I don't know much about this man, I can't believe he is in my way!Master!What's wrong with you, when I said he was bad, you defended him, and when I said he was good, you said he can't be trusted anymore!I'm just explaining the facts to you, not saying he can be trusted.This young man's temperament is too eccentric, and his martial arts are too evil, I really dare not regard him as a fellow.The responsibility on us is too great, I must be cautious!
Lu Jinhua was silent for a moment, and finally lacked the courage to speak out the inexplicable feeling in her heart, not to mention that this feeling was unpredictable even to herself, so she could only say: "Then let's go quickly, I have to find a place to change clothes!"The two got on their horses and came to a small town to find a shop. Xu Tianwei changed his medicine and rested for a while, while Lu Jinhua dried his wet clothes. After noon, they started on their way again, going down the river. It took an afternoon to rush to the foot of Xiliang Mountain, and then began to search for Sanliuzhuang.After asking a few people, there was no result. Lu Jinhua became impatient, and said in a complaining tone: Master!You don't even know where Sanliu Village is?I only know that it is in Xiliang Mountain, but I have never been there. The Four Sages of Liulin have never had much contact with people in the Jianghu, and others don't even know where they live.
It was already dark, and there was no light at all on the dark mountain road. Only relying on the residual snow on the ground, reflecting a little light, I could barely see the progress.The people were hungry, the horses were tired, Lu Jinhua complained again and again, Xu Tianwei knew that she was upset, so he ignored her, finally saw a little spark, flickering in the middle of the mountain, Xu Tianwei pointed out: there is someone there If you can't find it, let's stay overnight and look for it tomorrow. Fortunately, Xiliang Mountain is not big. If you search all over the mountain, you will definitely be able to find Sanliuzhuang.Lu Jinhua said reluctantly: "If we have time to find it slowly, we might as well rush to Tongguan Mountain. The matter is so urgent. Even if we find Sanliu Village and invite people out, we won't be able to catch the missing dart!"Xu Tianwei sighed and said: "An accident happened to the bodyguard in Tongguan Mountain, and the four evil spirits of the South aren't necessarily in Tongguan Mountain. What's the use of us rushing there?"Xiliang Mountain is not far from Tongguan Mountain. My purpose of looking for the Four Sages is also to inquire about news from them. Although the Four Sages have withdrawn from the Jianghu, they must know something about the martial arts people in the past.Good boy, I know you are unhappy, but there is no way, think about your responsibilities, and think about your brother's blood feud, bear with it!
Hearing what the master said, Lu Jinhua was embarrassed to complain anymore, she urged her mount, and went straight to the mountainside, and found out that it was a village shop with a few dozen houses beside the shop. But they all fell asleep, the sound of horseshoes caused a barking of dogs, and the barking of dogs alarmed the people in the shop again.A boy, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, came out with a lantern in his hand to take a photo, and then he said listlessly: "There are still people coming so late, are you two eating or staying at the hotel?"Lu Jinhua said angrily: "I'm going to be the top, and I'm staying in the hotel!"It’s okay to hit the tip, but there’s no way to stay. There are only three rooms in the small shop, and they are all full of guests. The two of you have horses. Go down 30 miles to Yuxi Town, where there are many big palace rooms. I think the two of them have horses. Don't delay. As he was about to close the door, Lu Jinhua kicked the door open and said angrily: We haven't said that we can't come in. Why are you closing the door? Are you afraid that we won't pay you!
She used so much strength that she kicked the boy somersaults, and the lantern in her hand fell, and it caught fire. The boy got up and put out the light with his feet, and shouted: "My sister-in-law!" , why are you being unreasonable, I am out of good intentions to avoid delaying your trip, and you can't just kick people with your hooves.Lu Jinhua was even more angry, and with a choke sound, she slapped the boy on the head with a single knife, causing him to groan and fall to the ground again in fright.Xu Tianwei hurriedly pulled her and said: "Golden Flower!What are you doing?Lu Jinhua said angrily: Master!What did you hear him say?Xu Tianwei said: You are too irritable.He helped the little guy up and smiled and said, "Little brother, you are too. Doing business should be friendly and make money. It's so late, even if there is no room in the store, you should let us take a breath. Why did you close the door without waiting for our promise?" Well, besides, you have to see clearly, my niece is obviously a big girl, if you call her sister-in-law, you don't blame her for being angry, let alone you go round and round to swear at people.
The young man patted the snowflakes on his body, and said with a bitter face: "Old man, how do I know she is a big girl, the big girls here never go out, and when I meet young female customers, I always call them sister-in-law, and I never make mistakes. Besides, it is completely good intentions for me not to keep you, because the group of customers living in the store are all vicious customers with noses and eyes, and they are still drinking, forcing me to find a woman to accompany the drink. Seriously, go there and look for it. If this big girl goes in, you can't blame me if you suffer.Lu Jinhua said furiously: "Fart, whoever dares to take advantage of me, I will take his head. Your aunt is not easy to bully."As he spoke, shaking the knife and rushing in, Xu Tianwei was afraid that she would cause trouble, so he hurriedly said to the boy: "Little brother, please take care of the two animals."After the explanation, he hurriedly chased him in. This village shop is surrounded by a bamboo fence, and the shop is through a small yard.As soon as Lu Jinhua lifted the cotton curtain, she saw that five or six square tables were filled with people, and there were about a dozen of them, all dressed up as Jiang Hu people!
As soon as she appeared, she heard someone shouting: "Drink!"What a handsome girl!On the table closest to her, a big man stood up, smelling of alcohol, squinting his eyes and said with an evil smile: "Big girl, you must be a fast-moving guy with you, come on!"Play two tricks for the uncle, and the uncle will reward you heavily.As she said that, she stretched out her hand to touch her face. Although Lu Jinhua was full of anger, she was born in the righteous way, and she refused to hurt anyone casually. She crossed the back of the knife and slashed on the man's finger. The man screamed in pain Got up and jumped away quickly, but the rest of the people laughed loudly, and some even shouted strangely: "Wonderful!"Big Chen, I didn't expect your daughter-in-law to be able to make a good knife noodle. Your kid has cultivated it in his previous life!The big man who was hacked roared angrily, "Stinky bitch, you are shameless, you dare to mess with the uncle, the uncle must kill you!"He stretched out his hand to pull the big knife at his waist, but was held down by another man and said: "Big Chen, with a girl, you still have the guts to use a knife. If you don't have the ability, stand back and let me manipulate her. Stay away!" It's already suffocating enough in this barren village, and it's so easy to send a cute girl. If you cut it down with a knife, all of us will have no fun. You don't want us to be heartbroken!
Sizuo laughed again, but the laughter stopped immediately, because Lu Jinhua swiped another knife like lightning, and the second man who spoke only felt a cold in his ears, and one bloody ear fell down. on the table.At this time, the big Chen smiled and said: "Xie Lao Qi, I only got a knife. You are too happy, and your wife is afraid that you will have nothing to eat, so she cut off the pig's ears from her hand to serve you!"Because Lu Jinhua attracted everyone's attention as soon as he entered the room, no one noticed that Xu Tianwei also came in. After a while, with his many years of experience in bodyguards, he immediately saw that this group of people had a very evil taste. Heavy.They will not be people in the green forest road, because they openly walk in gangs with weapons on, and flirt with passing women at will. Solid, after all the calculations, there is only one possibility, and that is the third-level samurai from the West Factory.I didn't expect to meet them in this barren village store, but these people are obviously not Qiu Kuang's subordinates, otherwise they should know Lu Jinhua.It was neither Qiu Kuang's group, nor the group led by Zuo Handjian Liu Yuanlin. He could not visit the Four Sages of Liulin, but met this group of people. Now, there may be another hard fight, and it is very difficult to pass. I am happy to meet them here. It is obvious that they have not yet joined the Tiannan Sansha, and there is more hope for getting back the missing body, so he quietly He put the copper lance tree next to the door, walked over empty-handed, and stopped in front of Lu Jinhua pretending to cower, and said in a reproachful tone: "Big girl!"Why are you casually using a knife to hurt someone? These uncles are just kidding with you!
As he said that, he gave an arch to Xie Lao Qi whose ears had been cut off: "Master, I'm not a sensible girl, so don't be as knowledgeable as her!"That old Xie lost his ear, was in pain and angry, and was furious when he saw him getting in, he got even more angry: he grabbed the clothes on his chest and shouted sharply: "Old guy, what are you doing?"Xu Tianwei pretended to be trembling and said: "Master, the little old man sells dog skin plasters. Don't rush to ask questions. Your ear has just been cut off. The blood is still hot, and there is still time to stick it on. The little old man has bruises." The medicine is a secret recipe handed down from the ancestors. It is very effective. I will stick your ears on first, so as not to lose your appearance!When he mentioned it, Xie Laoqi immediately let go of him, bent down to look for the ear, but couldn't find it everywhere, couldn't help being surprised, caressing the wound with one hand, holding the candle in the other hand, and said in surprise: Hey!Where did you go?Big Chen gloated at the side and said, "Don't be that buddy who was greedy and swallowed it. You'll have to look for it in the latrine tomorrow!"
Xie Laoqi was so angry that he couldn't bear such sarcastic remarks, he kicked Big Chen on the thigh, and cursed angrily: "Fuck you!"Big Chen staggered, knocked down on the side of the table, and found his ears. It turned out that he had stepped under his feet and turned into a mess!This time Xie Laoqi became even more angry, and he didn't care about the earache, he quickly took out a pair of daggers from his boots, and threw them out with a wave of his hand. On his thigh, Big Chen let out an angry roar, and the big knife in his waist came out of its sheath, and he slashed down obliquely on the head of his pocket.Xie Laoqi rolled on the spot, avoiding the blade, and with a swipe, a square poplar table was chopped off a corner. Xie Laoqi showed a pair of daggers in his hand, and said sharply: "Big Chen!" , you really want to die!The big Chen was blatantly fearless, holding a big knife in his hand and shouting: "Damn it!"Xie Laoqi, you lost your ears, but you came to find me bad luck, people are afraid of your flying knife, but I don’t care, you kneel down as soon as possible, let me chop a knife on your leg, otherwise I will take off your eating guy Xie Lao Qi naturally refused to accept this tone, and was about to throw the throwing knife in Yang Yang's hand again, but the people next to him came out and blocked both of them.
Someone said and said: "Okay!"alright!My buddies are making fun of me, how can it be true?Alarmed the boss, everyone is not good!Xie Laoqi hopped and shouted: "I'm not afraid to sue the boss. This kid is deliberately against me. He has been making trouble for me since he left Beijing!"Big Chen also shouted: "Fart your mother, I don't have eyes on my feet, who knew your ears would go to the ground!"Xie Laoqi was held back by his companions, so he had no choice but to curse back. From the eighth generation of his ancestors to his mother and sister, he uttered all kinds of vulgar words. When the quarrel was raging, two people came out from the back room, one tall and one short, tall The man with a majestic stature and mighty demeanor, but the short one is a thin old man with a mustache and a pair of mouse eyes. It is obvious at a glance that he is a very shrewd person!The tall man shouted in a deep voice: What's the matter?Just three words, but with incomparable majesty, it silenced the whole room, even the two who were arguing and scolding.
Someone recounted what had happened in a low voice, the man listened, and at the same time looked at Xu Tianwei's master and apprentice with his eyes, until he finished listening, the man nodded, and said to the two quarreling people: "Get out!"Kneel in the yard!Xie Lao Qi was anxious when he heard this: Boss!This is obviously his fault!The man smiled and said: Yes, he ruined one of your ears, and you also stabbed him with two throwing knives, can't it be worth it?Big Chen also protested: Boss!I didn't cut off his ears!The man smiled and said: "Then you think it's unfair, and it's easy to handle. I allow you to cut his legs twice, but you have to cut off one ear and give him a foot. This is the most fair way. You can do it again." If you want to argue, I'll do it!The two dared not argue any more, and someone next to them interceded: "Boss!They have all suffered a little, so let them be spared this punishment!The man's face darkened and he said: "No, this is the lightest punishment. When I came out, I warned you again and again, telling everyone to be quiet. They actually molested good women in public places. What kind of dignity is this!"The person interceding laughed and said: "The boss is right, but the buddies are also bored, not to mention that woman doesn't look like a good woman!"
After saying this, Lu Jinhua couldn't bear it any longer, and rushed over with the knife. The man stretched out his hand, pinched the back of Lu Jinhua's knife, and said with a smile: "Miss, don't be angry, let me do it!" Deal with it, Xu Biao!The man who interceded was startled, and quickly bowed down and said: "Yes!"Kneel down!Slap twenty by yourself!Xu Biao was greatly surprised, and said in a low voice: "Boss, the man said in a deep voice: Why do you say that she is not like a woman from a good family, but tell me what a woman from a good family looks like!"Xu Biao didn't know what to say, and the man said again: "Add 20 more, and you will be punished for speaking rudely, and you will be punished for disobedience!"When Xu Biao was still about to speak, the old man said, "Xu Si!Just admit it, you still don't know the master's temper.Xu Biao didn't dare to disobey, he knelt down obediently, slapped himself forty times in the mouth, and he hit him hard, he didn't dare to hide his secrets at all!After forty mouths were punched, his cheeks were swollen, and the man said: Get up, right and wrong are just for opening more mouths, you can remember next time.Xu Biao stood up in embarrassment, and the man let go of Lu Jinhua's blade and said with a smile: "Miss!"Now you can calm down!
When Lu Jinhua's knife leaf was pinched by him, she once pulled it back forcefully, but the knife seemed to be cast on the opponent's finger, and she didn't move at all. On the one hand, she was shocked by the opponent's deep skill, and on the other hand, she was also very heartbroken by the opponent. She is a decent person, she has never been in the rivers and lakes, and she doesn't know the origin of the other party, she has a good impression of this man, she smiled and said: You are very good, but your servants are too bad, they are like bandits!The man smiled and said, "Miss is right to scold me. My subordinates are too shameful. Mistress taught them for me. I am very grateful."Lu Jinhua felt that the middle-aged man was very kind, and all her anger disappeared, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I have practiced martial arts for a few days. If I were an ordinary girl, wouldn't it be hard for me to be bullied by them!"The man smiled and said: "Miss is too polite. Although my subordinates are not talented, but as soon as you make a move, you can make them suffer a lot. You must have been taught by a master!"Xu Tianwei was afraid that Lu Jinhua would miss the point, so he hurriedly interjected, "My lord, don't laugh, my girl has practiced some superficial kung fu with the little old man, and she can only join in the fun and deceive laymen. The word clever!
The man smiled and said: "So it was taught by the old hero himself. I'm disrespectful. The old hero doesn't have to be too humble. Although I haven't seen Qianjin displaying it, I know the weight of my brothers very well. It's not considered in the world." At the end of the day, as soon as the family reaches out, you will know if there is one. Qianyuan can cut off Xie Laoqi's ear with a single knife. If you want to see the family history, the old hero must be a senior in the world. Ask Gao for his name!Lu Jinhuakou said quickly: My surname is Lu!Xu Tianwei had no choice but to say: "The little old men, fathers and daughters sell medicines for a living, and go to the rivers and lakes to make a living, where they still have names!"The man smiled and said: "There are many masters in the martial arts world who are willing to be lonely. I respect this kind of people the most. If I'm lucky for a while, I'd like to ask for help!"Xu Tianwei hurriedly said: "Little old man dare not climb high!"The man smiled heartily and said: Don't be modest, the old hero. It is fate to meet by chance. The old hero doesn't want to have a close friendship, and I don't dare to force it. Let's have a drink and talk, and we will go our own way after this, and there will be no hindrance to the old hero's high morals.Come on, give up a clean table, and ask the shopkeeper to re-order the food and drinks!
As soon as those people agreed, they immediately started to clear the table, Xu Tianwei was still waiting to decline, but the man smiled and said: "Old Yingza father and daughter came here suddenly in the snowy night, they must have never eaten. If you don't have fun, it's rare to have this opportunity, so the old hero will give you a little noodle!At this time, the young man came over again and brought some clean bowls and chopsticks, and another old man with a hunchback brought a plate of roast chicken and two pots of hot wine.The man invited Xu Tianwei and Lu Jinhua to their seats, and only invited the thin old man as his companion, and introduced: "This is Mr. Gongsun Menglong!"Gongsun Menglong arched his hands and said a long time, and then the man introduced himself: My surname is Liu, and the character is Yuanlin.Lu Jinhua was startled and said: You are the left-handed sword?Liu Yuanlin smiled lightly and said: The girl actually knows such a cheap name, Liu is flattered!Xu Tianwei kicked Lu Jinhua lightly under the table, and secretly warned her not to panic, but said in a hypocritical way: So it is Liu Daxia, who is known everywhere in the Jianghu, especially for his good sword, which is incomparable in the world!
Liu Yuanlin smiled slightly and said: "The old hero's absurd praise made Liu feel ashamed. Liu wandered all his life and achieved nothing. He was promoted by Mr. Gongsun in the past two years. He was a small errand in Beijing. The concubine almost showed his ambitions!"Gongsun Menglong twirled the tip of his beard and laughed: "The old man dare not be an old man when he said this. This is the old man's own achievement. What can the old man do!"Speaking of this, the tone paused, and the eyes shot brightly: "General martial arts people don't care about their careers, but they don't know that serving the country is the career of a martial artist. Now the martial arts are abusing their words and acting chivalrously. They are willing to fight privately and despise the national conditions. This is the biggest mistake. People must first be kings." If there is no king or father in his heart, what kind of chivalrous and righteous Xu Tianwei is, but Lu Jinhua couldn't help but said: People who practice martial arts should have a monarchy in their hearts, but not follow others!Xu Tianwei quickly reprimanded: Girl, what do you know?Gongsun Menglong sneered and said: Miss Lu, can you advise me in detail?Lu Jinhua ignored Xu Tianwei's repeated warnings in secret, and said generously: I heard that the powerful officials in the court are now in power, and they are vigorously recruiting people from the rivers and lakes to make their own books, and they are devoted to Zhou Zhongliang. country?
Gongsun Menglong smiled and said: "Young lady is very good, but I don't know who the so-called powerful ministers are referring to?"Xu Tianwei gave Lu Jinhua a hard twist, and she finally restrained herself and said: "The pure is clear, the turbid is turbid. The common people are not confused. Loyalty and treachery have their own judgments. I don't need to mention them by name!"Gongsun Menglong wanted to ask again, but Liu Yuanlin hurriedly interrupted: "Drinking, drinking, everyone has his own ambitions, why bother to raise this bar?"Gongsun Menglong said in a deep voice: No!This must be made clear. Although everyone has different opinions, the distinction between loyalty and traitor cannot be confused!Xu Tianwei laughed and said: "The little old man, father and daughter are just ordinary people, not qualified to judge the gains and losses of courtiers, and the little girl is young and ignorant, talking nonsense, please don't listen to her."Gongsun Menglong sneered and said: We have lived in Beijing for a long time, and this time we came out to use the public opinion as a mirror to understand our own position, please give me some advice!Xu Tianwei said: "Sir, is he alone in the court?"Liu Yuanlin smiled and said: We are all married according to people!Xu Tianwei said: That's it. If the little girl said something that slandered you, wouldn't it be embarrassing for everyone? Liu Daxia flattered the foolish father and daughter to invite them to have a good time together. After drinking this meal, the foolish father and daughter continued to sell medicine, everyone Going to work, maybe there will be no chance to see each other again, why bother to make a fuss, if the husband insists on asking, the foolish father and daughter have no choice but to avoid the meeting!
Gongsun Menglong sneered and said: Listening to the tone of the old hero, it seems that we have already pointed out that we are on the unpopular side!Seeing that he was aggressive, Xu Tianwei also added a sentence: "Little old man doesn't even know which yamen you live in, and because you don't know, you don't want to talk about it, because you are right, the foolish father and daughter don't intend to use you for promotion; It's not right, but it offends everyone, which is really boring.Liu Yuanlin smiled and said, "That's right. We're out in microservices. Tonight we're only talking about the friendship between Jianghu and the rivers and lakes, not off-topic articles. Mr. Gongsun, if you're not used to it, please go back to your room to rest and let me get together with them."After finishing speaking, he turned around and said, "Xie Qi, Chen Si, I told you to go out and kneel, why are you still here?"Could it be that what I said is really farting, you guys figure it out, I am still in charge today with my surname Liu!These words were obviously meant for Gongsun Menglong, Big Chen and Xie Laoqi hurried out, and it was inconvenient for Gongsun Menglong to talk, but he had no intention of leaving either, so he smiled dryly and continued to sit in his seat.
劉元麟不理他，頻頻向許天威勸酒，間而也敬路金花兩杯，但始終沒有去搭理公孫夢龍。許天威雖然明知劉元麟是敵人，可是對方如此熱情招待，在沒揭穿身份，抓破臉以前，倒也不便堅拒。劉元麟的酒量很豪，許天威也很能喝，兩人乾了好幾壺，雙方都沒有酒意，酒興卻越來越濃。路金花唯恐師父喝醉了，忍不住提示他道：爹！您少喝兩杯吧，咱們還要趕路呢！劉元麟笑道：這麼晚了，還趕到那兒去？路金花道：我們是投宿的，此地已經給你們住滿了，我們總不能睡露天，要趕到前站去！劉元麟笑笑道：這是什麼話，無論如何也得讓出一間房來安置二位，不瞞姑娘，我就是好兩杯，難得遇上令尊如此海量，人生覓知己難，覓酒中知己更難，今天一定要跟老爺子喝個痛快，不醉不散。
許天威卻有自己的打算，三柳莊一時找不到，對方的身份卻摸清楚了，這批人是來與天南三煞會合的，盯住這批人，就等於盯住了失去的鏢貨，如果緊綴在後，反而容易啟疑，倒不如利用這個機會盤桓下去，何況對方不認識自己，天南三煞也從未照過面，情況十分有利，因此裝作不捨地道：丫頭，爹也好久沒痛快喝過了，酒這玩意兒很怪，不怕量淺，就怕沒對手，酒逢知己千杯少，好容易遇上劉大俠這位知己，妳就讓爹盡次興吧！路金花不知道師父是怎麼了，但也不更明說，只得嘟著嘴道：您一喝上勁，不知什麼時候才完，我既不能陪著你們喝，坐在這兒多無聊。劉元麟笑笑道：這倒是，姑娘不如就叫東西來吃，用過了，我讓出自己的屋子給姑娘休息，我跟老爺子很可能一直喝到天亮，那就用不到房間了！
公孫夢龍這時才道：總爺！你別忘了今夜有事！劉元麟道：先生請放心，我對自己的酒量有數，這種酒慢慢喝到天亮，絕對醉不了，何況我不睡更可以方便照料，陸中揚的口信只說今晚來到，沒定什麼時候，枯坐著守候也太無聊，這樣正好打發時間。公孫夢龍皺眉道：可是這件事必須避開外人劉元麟笑道：我的職守我負責，反正人來了，是先生跟他們接頭，我也不便參與，安全部份出了問題我一肩擔當，其他部份是先生的事，我們各管各的！公孫夢龍沉吟不語，許天威與路金花卻心裡一震，再也沒想到天南三煞竟在此地與他們會合，而且就在今夜，那可真趕巧了，這一來路金花也不想走了，許天威卻裝模做樣地道：大俠如果有公務，我們還是迴避的好！劉元麟笑笑道：不必！沒什麼要緊的事！公孫夢龍正待開口，劉元麟臉色微沉道：公孫先生，在行動方面你懂得太少，請不要干預我的行事好嗎？
公孫夢龍一再受到搶白，這次竟公然碰了個釘子，臉色也往下一沉道：劉大人，你知道今天的責任多大？劉元麟冷笑道：公孫大夫，下官知道得比你更清楚，我的職位雖是大夫引薦的，我的地位卻是靠自己本事紮下根的，在各人的工作範圍內毋庸指教！公孫夢龍怫然道：老朽不是指教而是請教，劉大人既然知道今天的任務十分重要，為什麼要留下閒人劉元麟冷冷地道：那我就明說好了，我可以請路老英雄父女離開，但出了問題我不負責！公孫夢龍怔了一怔，劉元麟又冷笑著道：公孫大夫如果還不明白，不妨回房去好好想想！公孫夢龍終於懂了，自討一場沒趣，訕然無語，劉元麟這才對許天威笑道：老爺子別見怪，我們一見如故，我留下二位絕無他意，但公孫先生官居諫議大夫，御史的職務幹久了，有挑剔毛病的習慣，為了使他放心，我不得不用另一種方法解釋，路老爺子想必能諒解的！
許天威只得拿出江湖的口吻道：小老兒明白，大俠今天晚上有秘密要公待辦，愚父女來得不是時候，如果我們現在離開，萬一出了點紕漏，愚父女就揹上嫌疑了！劉元麟大笑道：正是這句話，在下信得過二位，公孫大夫卻信不過，留下二位，也是給二位添麻煩。許天威故意道：難道大俠不怕我們是專為搗蛋來的？劉元麟笑道：不會！假如二位是專誠而來，責任全在公孫大夫身上，因為負責連絡的是他，除非他走漏消息，或是與二位事先串通，否則誰也不知道今天的事！公孫夢龍急怒道：劉大人，你可不能亂套帽子！劉元麟笑道：下官只是隨口說說，大夫沒有此事，就無須緊張，反正大夫是無法否認下官的話。假如消息是陸中揚那邊走漏的呢？劉元麟笑笑道：他們如果要將消息放出去，就無須多此一舉，大夫的想法未免太幼稚了！
公孫夢龍急得鼠眼亂翻，一句話都說不出來，忽而門簾一掀，小伙計又引進一個中年婦人，身材很高，穿了一身青布襖褲，一雙大足，登著老牛皮釘靴，頭上蒙了塊青布帕子，將鬢髮都裹住了，懷中抱著個長布捲兒。公孫夢龍怒罵道：混帳！你怎麼又帶人進來了！小夥計委屈地道：老爺子！您沒吩附說不准接待客人呀！這位大娘是個婦道人家，大雪天，我不能往外推！公孫夢龍喝罵道：我們雖然沒關照，你也該用腦筋想想，你們總共才三間房，能住多少人！小夥計雙手一攤道：老爺子，您跟她說吧，小的連說帶比，磨菇了半天，她硬往裡闖，小的也沒辦法。你不會告訴她店住滿了？要她聽得懂才行呀！她怎麼聽不懂，難道她是個聾子？小夥計笑起來道：您可說對了，她不但是聾子，而且還是啞巴，只會啊啊地叫，小的實在沒得辦法！
公孫夢龍氣得直翻眼睛，那婦人卻直跑過來撈起桌上的一盤滷肉就往口裡送，小夥計忙上前道：大娘，這是人家的，妳要吃我再給妳端去那婦人一面吃一面在身邊摸出半串銅餞擱在桌上，還用手勢表示自己並不白吃，劉元麟一皺眉道：由她去吧，她可能是餓急了，又聽不懂話，能拿她怎麼樣呢？公孫夢龍道：劉大人，這可該你負責了！劉元麟一沉臉道：公孫大夫是否要我殺了她？那隨劉大人的意思，我看她來得蹊蹺，無巧不巧的怎麼剛好趕在這個節骨眼兒上！劉元麟冷冷地道：大夫！這不比在京師，您的御史衙門沒有閒人敢亂闖，這兒是客棧飯店，門外掛著招牌，誰都可以進來，花錢吃飯可不犯法！可是咱們的公務都是大夫的主意，照我的意思是門口派兩個守衛的，把不相干的人都攔回去，大夫卻又怕太招搖容易洩秘，現在又來怪我處置不當，大夫可真難侍候。
公孫夢龍急了道：我的措施並沒有不當，大雪夜，荒村野店，誰會想到有人來呢，如果派人守衛不是太顯眼了嗎，可是這個啞巴婦人實在可疑，她是幹什麼的？劉元麟笑笑道：大夫是問她還是問下官？公孫夢龍道：自然是問劉大人，她又聽不見！劉元麟道：大夫知道她聽不見，下官又如何取供呢？公孫夢龍怫然道：劉大人，你不必故意跟老夫作對，老夫為的是公事，在職責上，你至少該弄個明白！劉元麟笑笑道：下官的職責是使大夫與陸中揚他們順利接頭，此外的事，下官一概不管。公孫夢龍氣得全身亂抖道：劉大人，我知道你現在是西廒總教練，權傾於天，誰也管不了你，可是你得弄弄清楚，這次的任務是魏公公直接交付下來的，你我各有所司固然不錯，但大體上你還是得受我節制！
郭元麟臉色一沉，站了起來一拱手道：下官當然聽候指示，大夫吩咐下來好了，下官無不照辦。只是出了岔子，大夫也一肩承擔，別把我們拖進去就行了。公孫夢龍冷冷地道：劉大人口口聲聲怕出岔子，好像是認定了這一次會出岔子似的！劉元麟淡淡地道：是的！所以下官希望少擔一點責任！公孫夢龍一怔道：大人不會是開玩笑吧！這種事情下官不敢拿來開玩笑。公孫夢龍沉吟片刻才道：大人何以會有這種想法？道理很簡單，因為一開始就辦錯了，下官不知道這個主意是誰出的，但啟用陸中揚他們就是最大的錯誤，這三個傢伙惡名昭著，江湖上實在混不下去了，才銷聲匿跡隱藏起來，大內偏偏把他們拉出來參予其事，還能不砸嗎？可是他們並沒有誤事呀！要等東西交到大夫手中，確認無誤後，再循圖找到那批藏金，運回大內交庫，才能算是成功，此刻尚言之過早！
只要劫下的圖樣是真的，其餘都不成問題了！圖樣如果是真的，問題更大了！How do you say that?天南三煞貪貨之名，武林誰人不知，他們得知有這麼一大筆藏金，肯乖乖的交出來嗎？公孫夢龍大笑道：原來大人是為擔心，那可真太過慮了，老夫敢用他們，自有控制之策。原來這是公孫大夫的妙策！公孫夢龍得意地一笑道：老夫不敢自誇，啟用他們是最省事的辦法，因為他們息隱多年，乍然出手，誰也不會想到他們，假如由大內負責行動，不等我們的人出京，對方就知道消息了，那有這麼順利！劉元麟一笑道：可是他們殺人的手法一望而知。老夫知道，而且老夫還叫他們故意放走一名活口，為的就是讓人知道，等大家在他們身上動腦筋時，我們已神不知鬼不覺的進行下一步行動了。
問題是他們肯把這一筆藏金交出來嗎？他們根本不知道那是藏金的寶圖！大夫把他們看得太簡單了，這筆藏金流傳人世達百年之久，誰不在動腦筋，他們豈有不知之理！就算他們知道，也解不了圖中之秘，這筆藏金知者雖多，真正能識得圖中隱語者，不過二三人而已，天南三煞得到了圖也沒有用，否則老夫也不會想到啟用他們了。他們捨得放手嗎？老夫曾許以重酬，差不多是藏金的三成。劉元麟一愕道：給這麼多？天南三煞的胃口很大，少了打不動他們。可是他們不會僅拿三成就滿足了。老夫自然考慮到這一點，可是他們如不與我們合作，連一分都得不到，算起來還是拿三成的好。劉元鱗冷笑道：天南三煞不是三成就餵得飽的！公孫夢龍大笑道：他們當然想吞大份，甚至全吞，但目前只好以三成為協定，至於以後他們想變卦，老夫已有萬全的對策，卻不便宣佈。
天南三煞舉手之勞就得去三成，我們又該分多少呢？公孫夢龍道：大人難道也想分潤一份！下官單身一人，銀錢再多也帶不到地下去，可是我這批手下弟兄出盡死力為的還是什麼呢？事成之後，監父自然有一分提賞的。但與天南三煞一比，我們就太吃虧了。公孫夢龍大笑道：大人如果為此感到不平，那就太天真了，天南三煞的三成只是鏡花水月，他們能保住性命就是好的了，事後連一兩銀子都不會給他們的！劉元麟又是一怔，公孫夢龍笑道：這批藏金是惠文出亡時由宮中攜走的，應該盡屬官家，豈能由草民朋分，老夫答應給他們三成只是哄哄他們賣命而已，事實上大人也該明白老夫那有這麼大的權限！因此大人可以轉告貴屬不必埋怨，他們多少總有好處，而且是實實在在的好處！
劉元麟笑了一下道：大夫到底是幹御史出身的公孫夢龍擺手道：這話不談，問題不在天南三煞身上，而是怕我們這兒出紕漏，所以大人對這啞巴劉元麟望望那婦人道：沒問題，不管她是真聾假聾，只要她不離開下官的眼睛，就不怕她搗鬼。事先摸摸清楚不是很好嗎？大夫有興趣不妨自己摸去，我可不願在一個無知的村婦身上浪費精神。就怕她不是個無知的村婦！我倒希望她不是！公孫夢龍愕然道：大人這話怎麼說？劉元麟一笑道：江湖上的事下官比大人在行。不怕兇，只怕陰，看得見的敵人好對付，最頭痛的是看不見的敵人，因為你無法測知他們下一步的行動，這個巴也許會有問題，但我不願意把她解決了使得對方有所警裼，改為暗中搗蛋，那更令人防不勝防！公孫夢龍想了一下道：大人藝高膽大，自然不在乎，老夫卻不敢放心，至少我要看看她包裡是什麼東西。
說著走過去，才一伸手摸到那個包袱，那啞婦大聲怪叫，伸手抓了過來，把公孫夢龍一掌推開了，同時還在他手背上抓了幾條血痕，公孫夢龍怒叫道：這是條瘋狗！許天威師徒卻在這一照面間，看出那啞婦正是方衣喬裝而成，心中十分著急，唯恐此時鬧翻了，破壞了天南三煞來此會面之舉，對追回失鏢，勢將增加困難，因此路金花立刻一個箭步躍前，握住了方衣的雙臂，眼睛眨了一下作為暗示，將他按住後說道：我來按住她！藉著方衣掙扎的機會，她在他耳邊道：方大俠，如果包袱裡沒什麼要緊物件，不妨讓他們看看，現在我們不宜有所行動，天南三煞就快來了！方衣雖然不住地掙扎，卻始終沒有用太大的勁，自然也掙不脫路金花的緊握，公孫夢龍道：路姑娘，妳按她緊一點，我非要檢查一下她的包袱，裡面一定有問題！
說著又去打開了包袱，首先發現的是一柄長劍，與幾個血跡斑駁的小包，公孫夢龍得意地道：我說的不錯吧，她帶著兵器，這些血跡又是新的，一定不簡單！劉元麟過來看了一下道：大夫打開小包看看裡面是什麼東西，光是一把劍還不能確定什麼！公孫夢龍解開一個小包，不由怔住了，那裡面竟是一團團鮮紅的血肉，以及兩枚被活剜出的眼睛，看了一下才疑惑地道：這個啞巴究竟是幹什麼的？劉元麟挑起血肉看了一下笑道：她是個打獵的。打獵的？大人何以知道呢？這是一頭死兔子，被解成四塊而已。許天威也放心了，過來道：丫頭妳放開她，我來問問，這女的也怪，死兔子放在包裡幹什麼？路金花鬆開了手，方衣作勢欲撲，許天威伸手攔住了，同時也比了幾下手勢，大概是問這些東西怎麼來的。
方衣也真能做作，口中啊啊直嚷，比手劃腳，說明兔子是用石塊打死的，再用劍剝了皮。公孫夢龍雖然看懂了，卻又問道：她幹嘛要把兔肉如此收藏呢？方衣比了半天，沒有人懂，倒是那小夥計笑著道：老爺子，您不明白，這兒的獵戶打到了野獸，都是剝了皮，將皮毛賣給皮貨店，肉再帶回去食用。那也用不著包藏嚴密呀！小夥計笑道：一定得包起來，現在是冬天，野獸們都餓得厲害，如果放在外面，叫野狼聞到了血腥味，幾里外也能追了來，一來就是一大群，誰也應付不了。公孫夢龍轉著眼珠道：打獵的用劍可真少見。小夥計解釋道：這兒的人很苦，也不光指著打獵謀生，自然不會有專用的器具，家裡有什麼就使什麼。公孫夢龍指指劍，向方衣比了個詢問的手勢，方衣比劃了一陣，許天威笑道：她說這劍是她丈夫留下來的。Well!Where is her husband?為什麼要她出來打獵？
許天威照比了一下，方衣也對比一陣，許天威才解釋道：她丈夫死了，有兩個小孩，一個小的正在害病。劉元麟這才笑道：大夫滿意了嗎？公孫夢龍覺得有點難為情，但又不甘認輸，指著那一對眼珠道：這玩意兒帶著又幹嘛呢？方衣不待翻譯就比了一陣，手勢簡明，大家都懂︱那是帶回去給生病的小孩治病的。公孫夢龍道：兔眼睛也能治病？小夥計笑道：窮人家瞧不起醫生，還不是照著一些秘方混治，有時倒也真管用。公孫夢龍又指著另幾個小包道：這裡面呢？方衣連比帶叫，劉元麟笑道：她是說兩頭兔子，一頭狐狸，大夫如不相信，何妨打開了瞧瞧！公孫夢龍沾了一手血腥也瀨得再看了道：我覺得這女的有問題，劉大人瞧著辦好了。劉元麟道：我認為沒問題，一個窮山婦，還是個啞巴，死了丈夫，孩子有病，殺了她未免太缺德了。假如這個女的出了問題呢？劉元麟冷笑道：路姑娘能制住她，可見她只有幾斤蠻力而已，假如她出問題，我們就成飯桶了！公孫夢龍原本是一句下台話，聽劉元輓那樣一說，也不便多講了。
方衣卻小心翼翼地將兔肉包好，劉元麟還掏出一錠銀子交給方衣道：大嫂，打擾了妳半天，這錠銀子給妳孩子治病吧，算是對妳表示歉意！公孫夢龍道：她抓了我一把，不治她的罪已經算客氣了，還要給她銀子，劉大人未免太仁慈了！劉元麟冷笑道：大夫！我的事你別管行不行！方衣卻緊抱包袱，連連搖頭，許天威道：劉大俠，她以為你是要買她的兔肉呢，大概她是為了要合藥治孩子的病，所以捨不得賣。劉元麟笑道：我沒說問她買什麼呀，這是送她的！許天威道：劉大俠忘了她是又啞又聾劉元麟得意一笑道：我怎麼會忘呢，我是故意試她一下，瞧她是真聾還是假聾！語畢將銀子丟在方衣身上，朝公孫夢龍望了一眼，露出個譏諷的微笑，轉身回到自己的桌上道：老爺子，別擾了咱們的酒興，我們繼續喝下去。
公孫夢龍被劉元麟那一笑弄得很是難堪，同時劉元麟手下的那些武師也都不屑地望著他，使他更不好意思，乃訕訕地道：劉大人，老朽精神不濟，想回房歇歇去了。劉元麟頭也不抬，只是嗯了一聲，等公孫夢龍轉到後面去了，他才壓低聲音道：總算把這個老厭物打發走了，許大俠，現在我們可以開誠佈公地談一下許天威見身份被人識破，臉色一變，劉元麟忙又按住他道：許大俠，千萬別聲張，我們有話好商量！許天威見他沒有惡意，才強自鎮壓住心跳，低聲道：劉大俠！我們從未謀面，何以識得許某！劉元麟︱笑道：大俠的成名兵器銅槊就擺在門旁，見器知人，何必要相識呢，否則劉某在江湖上也白混了！許天威頓了一頓才道：劉大俠既知許某為何許人，當然也知道許某的來意，大俠準備作何措置？劉元麟低聲道：兄弟如有惡意，也不會現在才說破大俠的身份了，大俠的來意兄弟自然明白，但是不知道貴局所失的鏢貨，究竟是否惠文寶藏的祕圖？
這個許某也不知道，許某只是受託護送而已。大俠說這話可見對兄弟還不信任。許某是真的不清楚，東西是一個朋友交付代運的，他雖然說明是藏金地圖，但許某並不知真假。劉元麟沉吟片刻才道：如果是真圖，大俠也太大意了，這麼重要的東西怎能交給幾個副手押送？許某原是想利用這個方法掩人耳目大內耳目密佈天下，怎麼掩得過呢，兄弟雖然置身大內，卻也是性情中人，絕不會為虎作倀，正因為大俠等閒置之，兄弟以為是假的，才沒有採取行動，否則兄弟一定拚命阻攔不讓它失落了，現在要想奪回，倒是有點麻煩，因此兄弟才問問清楚，如果是假的，乾脆就不去理睬，叫他們空忙一場，如果是真的，則無論如何一定要奪回來！許某的確不知道真偽！那就只有當它是真的了，等天南三煞來了之後，我們再見機行事，兄弟一定盡全力為助！
許天威沒想到劉元麟也是同道中人，心情十分興奮，劉元麟卻又暗指方衣道：這個人是否大俠一路的？劉大俠認為此人有問題嗎？我看出她是個男人，而且她的聾啞也是假的，雖然他裝得很像，卻瞞不過我的眼睛，還有他包中的一對眼珠，明明是從人身上剜下來的，此人身份極為可疑，如果不是大俠一夥兒的，就得多加提防！許天威想了一下道：許某認識他，卻非吾道中人，究竟是敵是友也難以確定，不過目前還不必把他當作敵人！他不會是為著那批藏金而來的嗎？許天威苦笑一下道：能知道就好，許某離開金陵時，曾遭到一個叫仇匡的攔截那是個武林敗類，大俠怎麼脫過他圍困的？許天威偷指一下方衣道：多虧有了他幫忙，這年輕人武功很高，行事卻有點邪，他幫我們的忙，用意也不十分清楚，我們可以借重他，但也得防備他一二！劉元麟點點頭道：是的！財帛動人心，看來他是知道藏金的事了，既非吾道中人，咱們就必須防備他！
正說著，忽然在院中罰跪的陳大個兒跑了進來，劉元麟一沉臉道：陳彪，誰准你進來的？陳大個兒低聲道：京中洪公公來了！許天威臉色一變道：大俠有公務處理，小老兒迴避！劉元麟低聲問道：你們照過面了？許天威點點頭，劉元麟道：老爺子！賢父女到我房裡去坐一下，回頭我們再暢飲吧！許天威拉著路金花匆匆轉到後面，正趕上公孫夢龍出來問道：是誰來了？是不是陸中揚他們？no!是洪公公！他來幹什麼？不知道，所以我才請路老爺子迴避一下。公孫夢龍道：他們是負責另一路的，突然趕來，一定是有重大的變故，快請進來！陳大個兒轉身出去，公孫夢龍指著方衣道：這啞巴她又聾又啞，在這兒也沒關係。劉大人說沒關係，老夫就不多事了！劉元麟低聲道：公孫大夫，下官並不是真的放心她，正因為不放心，才必須將她留在眼前！那一對父女呢？這兩個人下官絕對負責！
正說著，門簾掀開，正是那姓洪的宮監領著幾個劍手進來，劉元麟迎了上去，深深一躬道：公公駕臨，不知有何見教？金陵那邊的事清怎麼樣了？洪公公眼睛四下一射問道：天南三煞來了沒有？not yet!大概也快到了。你們這兒沒發生什麼變故嗎？公孫夢龍道：沒有！公公那兒出了岔子嗎？我們在江中截住了許天威與一個女的，誰知道半路上殺出一個不知名的年輕人，殺傷了我們不少人。劉元麟忙問道：許天威呢？沒抓住嗎？許老兒被仇大人砍了一劍，掉進江裡去了，不知是死是活，那個女的卻被人救走了。公孫夢龍笑道：只要把許天威解決了，餘人不足為懼，公公與仇大人兩支劍，還怕什麼人？洪公公臉上一紅，頓了一頓才道：我不會水，在江中擒住了那個女的，結果還是給那年輕人救走了。那這年輕人一定很了得！洪公公臉有慚色道：那個年輕人不知是什麼來路，一支劍實在邪門得很，仇匡也只能跟他打個平手，要是在陸地上，咱家絕不在乎他，偏偏在水裡面，眼睜睜地瞧他把人給救走了，不過咱家在那女的身上用了絕陰手法，即使被救走了也活不長久，只是我們又出了岔子！
是什麼岔子？我們在江裡四下搜索，想確定一下許天威的生死，想撈到他的屍體，卻一點影子都沒有！會不會給他跑了？劉元麟笑道：許天威既然中了劍，還能跑到那兒去，多半是在江裡給大魚吃了，所以才撈不到屍首。洪公公道：咱家也是這樣想，許天威的武功有限，即使真跑了也礙不了事，問題出在仇匡身上，他不知叫誰給宰了，遺屍江中，還把眼珠給剜棹了。公孫夢龍一驚，劉元麟道：怎麼會呢，仇大人的武功是第一流的，怎麼會被人殺死呢？沒人看見是誰下的手嗎？他帶了三個人坐一條小船在江心監督打撈屍體，那天早上有霧，結果四個人沒有一個活著的。正說著，忽然空中傳來一聲鬼嗥似的口哨，十分淒厲
