Chapter 3 How did you know? [Thanks to the leader of "Why is Love So Much" for the reward! 】
On February day, the willows are drunk with spring smoke.
Longyuan City is located in Zhongzhou, with a climate with four distinct seasons. Nowadays, the day is getting warmer, and the city is full of joy. The southern section of Tianjie is bustling with traffic, pedestrians flow on both sides, and the sounds of hawking, chatting and laughter are endless.
Liang Yue, wearing a long cloth coat, was sitting outside a tea shop on Linmen Street, looking around leisurely, his eyes as bright as a torch.
Sitting next to him was Pang Chun, who was also dressed in coarse linen clothes and somewhat ill-fitting. His huge head was lowered and his shoulders were hunched, making him look like a sneaky giant.
Sitting across from him was a young man of medium build, with a small nose and small eyes.
Although he looks ordinary at first glance, once you take a second look at his splendid robes, a valuable jade pendant and a heavy embroidered money bag hanging around his waist, you will feel that his whole temperament is suddenly adorable. Kissed.
"Liang Yue, what are we doing here?" The young man asked aloud, "If you want to drink tea, let's go to the second floor and find a private room. When did I sit on the street and drink it? Tea, it’s so embarrassing to see people.”
The standard configuration of the Royal Guards is a main guard and two subordinate guards. The man who spoke is named Chen Ju, who is Liang Yue and Pang Chun. The Zhengwei who followed him was from the Chen family, one of the four great families in the city of God.
Although he belongs to a side line, he is still a child of a noble family, and his level of wealth is beyond comparison.
"The view upstairs is not good, it is not as clear as here." Liang Yue shook his head.
Chen Ju wondered: "The suspects all set fires at night, so what are we doing here during the day?"
"Who said the fires at night could not have been set during the day?" Liang Yue said with a smile. : "If my guess is right... you will know in a moment."
"Hey." Chen Ju looked down upon his showy behavior, and then asked: "I heard Lao Hu asked you to pay to become a regular employee, but you refused?"
"Yes." Liang Yue said: "It's too outrageous for him to ask me to pay three hundred taels of silver."
"Three hundred?" Chen Ju glared, "My family sent me here, but it cost five hundred taels."
He is a descendant of a noble family and a real second-level warrior. He wants to enter the imperial capital. Wei also costs money, so from this point of view everyone is treated equally.
Maybe the prince of the dynasty had to pay three hundred taels of silver if he wanted to be a guard.
“Hey, so what Lao Hu gave me was a conscience price?” Liang Yue replied.
"Absolutely, he probably didn't increase the stakes." Chen Ju nodded and said: "The power to recruit full-time officers lies in the hands of Zou Fang, the commander-in-chief of Nancheng. If it's less than three hundred taels, it's impossible to get anyone's attention. .”
He then said: "Actually, I can pay you for the full-time job."
"No need." Liang Yue refused without hesitation: "I can't afford it."
< br>"It's not borrowing, it's giving." Chen Ju said: "You know, although my family is just a sideline in the business and has a low status in the family, we are never short of money. Helping you is, for me, It’s nothing. Who told us to be friends?”
“It’s really not necessary.” Liang Yue still refused, “I accept the love, but I will never spend money to buy an official position... ...I think it’s unreasonable.”
“Huh?” Chen Ju was startled, a little surprised: “I thought you were a very smart person, you should be flexible.”
"Some things can be flexible, and some things cannot." Liang Yue said with firm eyes: "Even if the whole world agrees, it is unreasonable to be unreasonable."
"You..." Chen Ju seemed a little touched. When he wanted to say something more, Liang Yue suddenly held down his arm under the table and looked not far ahead with a sharp look, as if he had discovered something.
Ahead.
A man with a simple appearance like an old farmer was pushing a small cart, shouting and selling: "Iced sour plum juice...cool and refreshing sour plum juice..."
Winter has just passed. , some farmers often store some ice in their own cellars, brew iced drinks and sell them in the city, which are quite popular.
At a street intersection ahead, a dusty man wearing a bamboo hat stopped him and said, "Bring me a bowl of sour plum soup."
"Okay."
The old farmer opened his thick plate The ice bucket covered by the thick quilt filled the man with a bowl of sour plum soup, took the three copper coins, and then pushed the cart towards the street.
After turning into the alley, he took out a large piece of ice from the bucket and suddenly threw it into the backyard of a shop on one side.
The movement was very fast, there was no one in the alley, and no one was paying attention on the noisy street. It seemed that he was unaware of the ghost.
But Liang Yue, who was staring at him from a distance, suddenly became clear-eyed and shouted: "Do it!"
The three of them immediately took out their sabers from under the table and ran quickly towards the old farmer pushing the cart in the street. Go, Chen Ju shouted to the crowd as he ran, "Long Yuan Imperial Guards, get out of the way!"
But just as he reached the center of Tianjie, a sudden change occurred!
......
The man in a bamboo hat who was standing at the opposite street and had just finished buying sour plum soup saw three tough men with knives rushing towards him. He suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with excitement. It's a fierce light, like a wild beast!
"Death!"
He shouted angrily and threw the bamboo hat on his head, revealing a fierce face with a scarred face.
This bamboo hat flew towards the tallest Pang Chun and hit him in the chest. With a bang, the iron tower-like Dachun was hit hard and flew out like a kite. He landed heavily after a long distance.
The man's sudden outburst caught the three of them off guard. They felt confused. Could it be that he was an accomplice of the arsonist?
No matter what, he showed no mercy this time, and the remaining two people would definitely fight back. Chen Ju immediately drew the sword in his hand. He was a second-level warrior. He had the charm of martial arts when he swung the sword. If his mind was accompanying him when he swung the sword, it was very powerful.
Liang Yue assisted from the side in a tacit understanding, attacking the man's lower body with a sweeping kick.
Cang!
With a crisp sound, the man caught Chen Ju's sword with his bare hands, and it made a sound of gold and iron. Then he pushed out with his right hand, and a burst of energy knocked Chen Ju away from a few feet away.
"Pfft——" Chen Ju spit out a mouthful of blood and flew out, seriously injured on the spot. While in the air, he did not forget to remind: "Liang Yue, be careful, he is in the Gang Qi realm!"
The Gang Qi realm is already the fourth realm for warriors. Gang wind leaves the body and is fierce and violent. I didn't expect that there would be such a master hiding on the street, let alone that he would launch a sudden attack on the three of them.
But when Liang Yue heard it, it was already too late.
His leg swept across the man's calf, as if he had swept an iron pillar. He felt a sharp pain in his leg bones, but the other man was completely unconscious.
When the man knocked Chen Ju away, he lowered his head and looked down at Liang Yue. His palms immediately fell down fiercely like two ghosts slamming the door.
Liang Yue's realm is not as good as Chen Ju's. If he pressed hard with this palm, his head would probably explode! For a moment, he seemed to have heard the whistling wind that smelled of death.
At the critical moment, Liang Yue showed no fear. He looked behind the man and shouted: "Attack his vital points!"
The man saw this little first-level martial artist, facing him without any fear. Fearful, for a moment I really thought that someone was attacking me from behind. I was slightly distracted and dispersed my energy to be on guard.
Then I realized there was nothing behind me.
Fooled?
At the moment when he was distracted, Liang Yue made no further plans to fight back. Instead, he rolled backwards on the spot, widening the distance between him and the man. The feeling of oppression was so terrifying that it was suffocating. Dissipate slightly.
Seeing this, the man became even more angry. He had been fooled by this weakling and was about to catch up with him.
Whoosh——
At the critical moment, accompanied by the sharp sound of breaking wind, a meteor-like silver-white sword light suddenly arrived, coming from the end of the long street several miles away, carrying Ling Ling. The breath of coldness.
Split the sky!
Chi!
The stream of light pierced through the man's hard chest in an instant, took him flying, and crashed into the wall behind him.
When Liang Yue stood firm, he found that the shadow in front of him had disappeared. The man was nailed to the brick wall more than ten feet away, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. On his chest was a pure white sword, as if it was made of moonlight.
There was a clatter of armor, and a group of sword-wielding soldiers wearing black cloaks came up from all directions, surrounding the unconscious man, but no one came forward, as if they were waiting for something. .
Soon, a figure came down with the fragrance in the wind.
This is a woman wearing a plain white dress. She is tall and has clear eyes. Her eyebrows are as round as the moon in a smoke cage. There is a hump between her nose. Her skin is like gelatin, and she faces the wind.
She flew in from a distance, fluttering like a fairy coming to earth, and then landed with a huff, her clothes hanging in the air.
This beautiful woman who fell from the sky suddenly attracted all the eyes of the entire street, as if thousands of sunlights were focused on this person.
I don’t know how many people forgot to breathe at this moment.
After she landed, she flipped her hand, and the flying sword on the man's chest shook off a string of blood beads, turned into a stream of light, and went back into her sleeve. Then she spoke: "Yu Wenlong?"
The big man who was nailed to the wall suddenly fell to the ground, raised his head with difficulty, revealing his scar-covered, ferocious face, and cursed vaguely: "Zhu Xie The hawks and dogs of the Yamen, the despicable Southerners..."
"In order to escape back to the capital of gods, you did not hesitate to destroy your face." The woman opened a portrait in her hand, which vaguely resembled the appearance of this man, except that his hair was much longer and there was no shocking scar on his face.
"Ah..." The big man put his arms on the ground and roared: "I will fight with you -"
He was subdued by many people, but he still struggled desperately and refused to give in, showing his fierce look. Like a wild beast.
"Take him away!" Without the woman's order, the soldiers around him took out heavy iron ropes, tied him tightly in the blink of an eye, and escorted him back with a team of people.
After completing the task, the woman turned back and looked at Liang Yue who was sitting on the ground. She walked over slowly and raised a token at the same time: "Zhuxie Division is walking, Wen Yifan."
Her voice was soft and cold, just like her temperament.
"Liang Yue, the residence of the imperial guard in Fukangfang." Liang Yue stood up quickly, staggered with his right leg, then clasped his fists and replied, "Thank you, girl, for helping me."
"It turns out he is from the Imperial Guard. There is no need to thank him. It was all for handling the case. If you hadn't caught him out, our Zhuxie Division would have almost missed the repeat offender, but..." Wen Yifan's eyes lingered on Liang Yue, leading him With some doubts, he asked:
"How did you know that he was a Nine Martingale spy?"
Thanks to Teacher Shen for the leader's reward, he became the second super luxurious person in this book. Leader!
Thank you. Thank you.
This concludes the third update on the first day. Today’s update time is a bit strange to match the event. Tomorrow it will be updated at 12 noon on the 20th. From now on, it will be updated at noon.
In addition, the number of words in the new book is still small. Friends who are not interested in reading can read the author's first two books. At present, the first book has more than 40,000 orders, and the second book has more than 80,000 orders. If the new book does well, I don’t know if I can break 100,000 with this book (sorry for dreaming).
Anyway, thank you for your support today, I will continue to work hard!
