Too Reckless

Week after week, the two people in the rain curtain were deadlocked for half an hour.

The black-clothed woman was very tough, and she was never softer than half a point from beginning to end. She was scolding, threatened, and hysterical, but she didn't say the word 'serving'.

Zuo Lingquan doesn't believe in evil either. He follows the rules and reason, but in the face of people who can't afford to lose and make trouble unreasonably, he has to teach them what "wu virtue" is.

The tempers of the two collided, and neither of them would give in, but it couldn't last forever.

The black-clothed woman was controlled by others, and after all, she had the disadvantage. After being physically punished many times, she gradually stopped speaking and did not struggle. She just lay on Zuo Lingquan's lap, gritted her silver teeth, and breathed sharply.

Zuo Lingquan wasted no time in doing so. Seeing that the other party was no longer struggling, he said softly:

"Due to people, you have to win and lose, or they can kill you if they can win you. Fortunately, you met me. If you are so messed up in the rivers and lakes, you won't survive for three days. You don't struggle. , I'll treat you as admit defeat and let you go, if you're not finished yet, let's continue and see if you hurt or I hurt."

The woman in black lay on Zuo Lingquan's lap without any response, but took a deep breath.

Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan let go.

The woman in black jumped up like a frightened rabbit, turning around and picking up the sword from the ground, ignoring the burning pain in her back.

Zuo Lingquan frowned and held the hilt of the sword.

It's just that no matter how stubborn people are, there is no reason to send them to the door to be beaten. The woman in black is full of shame and humiliation, but instead of attacking Zuo Lingquan, she walked quickly out of the alley with her sword in hand, and said coldly. Sentence:

"You wait for me."

Zuo Lingquan stood up, put away his sword, and patted his robe:

"If Xiongtai doesn't have a long memory and only hold grudges, then don't practice martial arts in the future, and it's easy to die early. If you're not convinced, you can come to me at any time, and I'll be reasonable if you are reasonable."

"Bah—shameless."

The black-clothed woman's teeth were ticklish, she couldn't hear it, turned around and kicked a broken brick towards Zuo Lingquan, and then hurriedly ran out, as if she was afraid of being caught.

Zuo Lingquan sideways dodged the broken bricks, and didn't bother to care anymore.

But watching the woman walk away, Zuo Lingquan suddenly remembered something very important, and said from a distance:

"By the way, Xiongtai said that as long as I survived a cup of tea, he would introduce me to the Phoenix Phoenix Valley. Does that count?"

The woman in black, who had already walked away, slammed her footsteps, obviously wanting to turn around and curse.

However, the superior should follow the law, the other party is shameless, she can't follow the rogue.

After hesitating for a moment, the woman in black still groped around her waist, took out a jade pendant, turned around and threw it to Zuo Lingquan:

"Take the jade pendant to Xihuang Valley, and someone will take you in. Also, today's affairs won't be the end of it. Just wait for me, and I'll let you understand how much you messed up. trouble."

Zuo Lingquan took the jade pendant. The round jade pendant was engraved with a green bamboo, and the character 'Wu' was on the back. It was regarded as an identity card, and it still had residual warmth when carrying it with him. He rubbed it twice, smiled and clasped his fists in a salute:

"Many thanks to Senior Brother Long. If Senior Brother is really angry, I will stand here and let Senior Brother Long fight back. They are all family, so why be so angry?"

call back?

The black-clothed woman endured the pain behind her and thought about the way she hit Zuo Lingquan...

Can not bear to look!

"Bah—shameless thief, you're doomed, I'll tell you..."

The black-clothed woman turned her head and spat, and then disappeared at the end of the alley with heavy footsteps.

The corner of Zuo Lingquan's mouth twitched lightly, and after weighing the jade pendant in his hand, he walked towards the winery in the distance with satisfaction.

As for how the black-clothed woman will retaliate against him, Zuo Lingquan is not worried. He can give him the jade pendant, which shows that the woman still follows the rules in her heart, but her temper is a bit unruly. Flush the toilet.

A man can bend and stretch out, suffer in hardships, and be a superior person. As long as he can walk on the avenue of longevity, what kind of difficulty is this?

However, Zuo Lingquan sighed secretly again when he remembered the matter of choosing a concubine the day after tomorrow.

If this is really selected, the dream of free and free practice in the future will definitely be in vain.

At this moment, he can only hope that the eldest princess is blind and can't look down on him, otherwise, the great opportunity that he met today would not be wasted...

The night was getting dark, and even the casinos on the side streets were quieter, leaving only Fengyue Alley to continue the laughter.

The door of the Tang family restaurant was closed. Zuo Lingquan came to the door and picked up the oil-paper umbrella leaning against the door. Knowing that Tang Jingshen did not dare to sleep, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

dong dong—

Behind the gate, there was some movement, like the sound of picking up a kitchen knife surreptitiously.

Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan said half-jokingly:

"Sister Tang, the beast has been driven away, don't worry."

Hearing Zuo Lingquan's voice, footsteps sounded in the hall, and soon, the door opened, Tang Jingshen carefully glanced through the crack of the door, a little nervous in his eyes:

"Young Master Zuo, are you not injured?"

"No injuries. Sister Tang, go to bed early, and remember to close the doors and windows. I'll go home first and leave."

After he finished speaking, he handed the money for the wine to Tang Jingxing.

Tang Jingxuan has lingering fears about what happened during the day, not to mention that there was a 'fierce beast' over there just now. The ominous beast doesn't know when it will come. She lives here as a woman, what's the use of closing the door?

Looking at the 100 taels of silver notes handed out by Zuo Lingquan, Tang Jingshen's eyes were a little anxious.

"Young master is helping the neighbors to get rid of harm, how can you not even have a cup of tea. Hmm... Why don't you come in and take a rest and wait for the rain to lighten before leaving?"

Zuo Lingquan could see from Tang Jing's calm face that she was alone in fear. After thinking for a while, he stepped into the wine shop:

"Then I'll trouble Sister Tang. It's so late, Sister Tang should go to rest first. I can leave by myself when the rain is light and help you close the door."

There were customers in the store, Tang Jingshen was embarrassed to run back to the backyard to sleep, but didn't dare to sleep.

She took a jug of wine and put it on the table, then brought a towel and handed it to Zuo Lingquan.

Zuo Lingquan wiped off the water stains on his body, sat drinking by the window, and didn't stare at Tang Jingxuan, but put his eyes on the distant imperial city, thinking about his future plans.

Tang Jingxuan sat beside the warm wine stove, looked around, not knowing what to say, and was afraid that Zuo Lingquan would leave, her expression was rather embarrassing.

Zuo Lingquan didn't have much to talk about. The two of them were silent for a long time. Zuo Lingquan suddenly heard a few bird calls in the backyard and the sound of flying around in the cage.

twitter-

Zuo Lingquan glanced at it, and he couldn't see anything with a curtain blocking it, so he asked:

"Sister Tang still keeps birds?"

Tang Jingxuan was speechless, and quickly replied with a smile:

"Yeah, when I was drying rice in the past, a stupid bird came and stole it every day. After a while, it refused to leave, so I raised it and relieved my boredom in my spare time. Now I think I woke up and found that I was not there, call me Woolen cloth."

Zuo Lingquan nodded: "It's hard to live alone, and it's good to have a pet as company."

"Actually, it's okay to be alone. The neighbors are all good, and no one cares about them. As long as they don't make trouble with beasts, they will have a good life."

Tang Jing said so, but her expression was obviously not very comfortable, her pupils reflected the faint light of the small stove, with a bit of sadness. She didn't want to talk too much about this, so she turned to the topic and said:

"I heard that I will choose a concubine the day after tomorrow. How should I choose a concubine? Just like choosing an oiran, stand on the stage and let the princess choose."

Zuo Lingquan was holding the wine bowl, thinking about it, it really is like this:

"Almost, a bunch of people got together and competed with each other, and the most outstanding person was the concubine."

"Comparing to what? Playing the piano and singing?"

"A horse-riding archery contest or something."

"It's not the champion of martial arts, what is more than horseback riding and archery?"

Zuo Lingquan drank a little wine, maybe a little overwhelmed, and replied smoothly:

"These are all items that test physical strength. The concubine can't hold an important position, and the only duty is to serve the princess. As the saying goes: only exhausted cows, no farming is bad... bad... bad..."

At this point, Zuo Lingquan suddenly reacted, feeling that he was a little floating, took a sip from the wine bowl to hide his embarrassment.

Tang Jingxuan opened a wine shop in Linhefang, where the three religions and nine streams are mixed. He has heard this saying and understands the meaning.

This kid, he knows a lot...

She frowned slightly, and there were surprises and oddities in her eyes, she turned around, turned her back to Zuo Lingquan, fiddled with the stove, and asked knowingly:

"what does it mean?"

"Well, it's nothing, it's just that the concubine is in good health, so she can't die early and leave the princess as a widow."

Zuo Lingquan explained casually, embarrassed to talk nonsense again, and looked at the rain curtain outside the window.

Tang Jingxuan experienced this little episode, so she couldn't speak anymore. She stared at the stove in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking about.

The night was getting dark, the two of them didn't speak again, and the restaurant was quiet again.

Tang Jingxuan leaned on the wine table next to the stove at first, and slowly headed a little bit, then lay down on the table.

Zuo Lingquan is also not a sleepless master of the world. Sitting at the window, thinking about going to Xihuang Valley to see things tomorrow, I don't know when sleepiness strikes, and he also lies on the wine table.

In a daze, I only felt that as soon as I closed my eyes, there were some noisy voices outside.

"steamed stuffed bun…"

"Sell coal..."

"Hey? Are you finished..."

Zuo Lingquan woke up suddenly and looked at the window, only to find that the east was turning white outside.

Turning her head, Tang Jingshen was still sleeping on the small table beside the stove.

Perhaps because she felt uncomfortable falling asleep, Tang Jingxuan also changed her posture, with her back to him, looking from the back, her shoulders were narrow and her hips were round, and her hips were wider than her shoulders. The scene was very reverie.

"…"

As the saying goes 'a gentleman does not bully the dark room', Zuo Lingquan quickly turned his unintentional gaze away,

He didn't wake Tang Jingxing, he pressed the silver note with the wine bowl, stood up lightly, closed the window, and closed the door from the outside.

It was February, and the rain stopped. Although it was not yet bright, there were already some pedestrians on the small street.

After closing the door of the restaurant, Zuo Lingquan tidied up his clothes a little and turned around to leave.

It's just that he just took a few steps when he suddenly saw a middle-aged woman standing outside the door with a steaming tray outside a steamed bun shop at the end of the street, staring at him intently.

Zuo Lingquan noticed something, looked up, and the woman turned around and entered the shop.

Zuo Lingquan was puzzled, but his appearance was outstanding, and it was not uncommon to be stared at while walking on the street, and he didn't care at the moment, he quickly left Linhefang and headed to Xihuang Valley, thirty kilometers away from the capital.
