Liu Lingzhong's Selected Short Stories Serialized (1226)

Horse Racing Hotel(3)

There was suddenly a burly man in white in the field, when did he appear, what kind of body he used, and how he broke in, no one present saw it. He was distinctly like a ghost, like a shaking shadow. Fortunately, in broad daylight, they were not scared to fight incomprehensibly between them and the people next to them. The newly arrived man in white slapped a palm at Shen Shuxiang casually, and the cold aura of the Flying Flower Sword suddenly dissolved. There happened to be an ancient camphor tree beside the street, and she was forced to jump on the trunk of the tree and look down at the ground, and the man had also retreated steadily and stood beside Su Rui'er. Gao Yan knew that someone had helped him, but he didn't know whether he was friend or foe, he had been slightly injured when he fought with Shen Shuxiang, so he quickly sat cross-legged on the ground. What just happened was like a dream. Gao Yan was sure that it was not a dream, but because the man in white was too fast, he couldn't see clearly. He didn't seem to exert any force at all, and his body and movements were fluttering and relieved him. It's not like fighting at all, it's like a fight, but for Gao Yan, it undoubtedly saved his life. The man in white actually repelled the proprietress of the Horse Running Hotel with a gesture, and if he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, the people present would not have believed it.

"The man in white is too nosy." They want to.

In the minds of everyone in the Five Fingers Hall, the kung fu of the Ma Gang is almost the first in the world, and Shen Shuxiang's kung fu is only a little worse than that of the gang leader. In this way, the white-clothed guest is not a human being. Although Hall Master Yuan knew that he was not an opponent, the proprietress might have been injured, and he could only step forward for fear of being blamed by the master. Unless the helper personally goes out, the business of killing Gao Yan is about to smash the pot, and it is also the sign of the Horse Racing Hotel, and the money can only be returned to the guests a hundred times. It is rare for Shen Shuxiang to make a move in ordinary transactions, and it is only three times that the gang leader comes forward. At this time, the man in white pointed his finger to solve Su Rui'er's acupoint, and Su Rui'er stood up and shouted: "Senior brother, when did you come to the racecourse?" "The person who came was Xiao Yu, who had the highest martial arts among the swordsmen in Zhushan Villa.

"Just arrived." Xiao Yu answered her calmly.

Xiao Yu saw quite clearly when she appeared, the little junior sister's martial arts were not weak, Shen Shuxiang could hit her Yingxiang acupoint in an instant, but she didn't intend to hurt Su Rui'er. He happened to think about what happened in reverse, and mistakenly thought that Gao Yan was helping his junior sister, but he didn't expect that it was Su Ruier who rushed to help Gao Yan to make people order acupuncture points. Xiao Yu didn't use the Broken Intestine Sword, he was sure that he could retreat from the enemy with his empty hands, not to mention that he didn't know much about the conflict between the two sides, and Shen Shuxiang didn't hurt the little junior sister, and the intention of bringing down Su Rui'er was probably to keep her out of the matter. Gao Yan used a Gongbu sword, and Shen Shuxiang could easily swing the sword away with just an ordinary secret weapon, and his skill was indeed far above the disciples of the Holy Grass Sea. Her flying sword moves are not strange, but her internal force is extremely yin, and she will definitely be injured if she hits Gao Yan again, so she repels Shen Shuxiang.

"Who's coming?" Shen Shuxiang asked while standing on the camphor tree.

He arched his hand and said, "Listen to Xiao Yu in Zhushan Villa." ”

"It turns out that the guest is a world-famous gut-breaking swordsman," Shen Shuxiang jumped down from the tree, "I know you only used thirty percent of your strength. Xiao Daxia made a move just now, and he wouldn't think that we were robbing your business from the Horse Racing Hotel because his peers were enemies. ”

"To each his own business." Xiao Yu said with a smile, "I ran to your territory to grab business, there is absolutely no reason for this." ”

Of course, Xiao Yu knew that the mysterious horse gangs in the rivers and lakes and the horse racing inn that usually appeared in public were actually notorious killer organizations. The Broken Intestine Swordsman is not the same as the people killed by the horse gang.

"Didn't Xiao Daxia cut off our financial route just now?"

"I want to know who paid for my sister's life."

"Who is Your Excellency's junior sister?" Shen Shuxiang knew that Su Rui's children were dressed as men, but she didn't expect that she was a person from Zhushan Villa, so she was secretly taken aback, but she deliberately asked. "There are no guests in the Happy Horse Hotel to buy your junior sister's life, I only ordered this little brother Yingxiang Acupoint. On the contrary, someone spent money to buy the life of this vanilla Haimen man sitting on the ground, so that my junior sister could not stop me from doing business. ”

"Gao Yan is my friend." Su Ruier said.

Shen Shuxiang sneered: "The caravan has the rules of the caravan. ”

"Do you kill people without asking?"

"Little sister, you might as well ask your Senior Brother Xiao, will the Broken Intestine Swordsman ask right and wrong when he kills someone?" Shen Shuxiang looked at Xiao Yu, "What the horse gang does is to take money to kill people. ”

"Don't ask." Xiao Yu replied.

"Don't you own an inn?" Su Ruier said.

"Naturally, it's a hotel." Shen Shuxiang smiled.

"You opened a black shop, and you will kill me and Jin Ying."

"Where is Kim Young, and who is he?" The other party asked.

"It's the one who came with me to your house."

"There aren't any guests who want to buy your lives." Shen Shuxiang said, "Of course the Horse Racing Hotel is not a black shop, has my little sister ever eaten human meat buns?" Apparently not. As long as you don't owe money, you can have all the chicken, duck and fish, and you can live as long as you like. If there is a problem with the quality of service, you can complain. ”

"Isn't Gao Yan a guest staying at the Happy Horse Inn?"

"You said him. And of course our guests. ”

"The proprietress means, if you pay for it, you will help kill people."

"We're just going to do this little deal." Shen Shuxiang said.

"That's good." Su Rui'er said, "I will also pay for it, if the person who asked you to kill Gao Yan with the money to do business?" ”

Shen Shuxiang said: "Of course you will do it if you have money!" ”

"What if you pay for it and don't kill Gao Yan?"

"This matter has to pay for Gao Yan's life, and the guest speaks, and there is no need to pay another money, and we will refund his money."

"Okay, tell me who bought Gao Yan's life."

"The guest does stay at the Happy Horse Inn, but the guest's permission to say his name must be obtained. Or maybe he knows. ”

"You leave Gao Yan first, and I'll buy the life of the man who killed him."

"This thing...... Yes, up to three days. ”

"Enough. Buy that man's life, and you will make a price. ”

"Little sister, you have to talk to the shopkeeper about business."

"But you should always let me know whose life you paid for." Su Rui'er asked Gao Yan, "Do you know him?" ”

Gao Yan shook his head dumbly: "I don't know who it is." ”

"When are you going to tell me who that man is?" Su Ruier asked Shen Shuxiang, "Only when you know how much money you can get." ”

"I'll tell you if you've asked the guest." She said.

"I'm waiting for your letter at the Horse Racing Hotel." Su Ruier said.

"Then I'll take my leave." The proprietress said to her.

Hall Master Yuan greeted, and everyone on the street immediately walked cleanly. Xiao Yu frowned, and he looked at Su Rui'er:

"Senior sister, you really plan to go back to the Horse Racing Hotel."

"Of course, when I go back, I want to know who bought Gao Yan's life, and besides, my friend Jin Ying is still in that store."

Gao Yan stood up and arched his hand: "Thank you for saving me just now." ”

"You're welcome." Xiao Yu returned the salute.

"Gao Yan, you really don't know who the enemy is?"

"Now the trouble, I don't know who you are."

"Why don't you remember me?" She said, "Gao Yan, let's go to Cousin Li Ping's house in Maling Valley as a guest, it seems that you and Brother Ping are also relatives." Have you cleaned all the bee venom from you? I heard Chang Shuai say that you are okay with Luo Hongyan, and I am still sad. By the way, did you marry her? ”

"Who is Luo Hongyan?" High Rock Road.

"It's over, what evil have you fallen for again!"

"I don't seem to remember anything." Gao Yan shook his head.

Xiao Yu said: "Then let's go back to the Horse Running Hotel for the time being." ”

Back at the hotel, Kim Young was already in the house. Xiao Yu opened a room, right next door to Su Ruier and the others. asked Gao Yan to stay in Xiao Yu's room, and he said that he was not used to insisting on going back to his room.

"Have you found out about your little master?" Su Ruier asked.

"It must be my little master." Kim Young said the same.

"I mentioned your name to her, but she didn't react at all and asked me who Kim Young was." Su Ruier said calmly.

"He doesn't know my new name." Kim Young admitted.

Soon it was dinner time again, and Xiao Yu came over from next door and knocked on the door. Su Ruier promised: "Senior brother, come in!" ”

Jin Ying was surprised to see Xiao Yu. "It's almost time to eat." He said to Su Rui'er, so he went to call Gao Yan again, and then came to the lobby. They sat down at a table with a wooden lattice window, and the men came to greet them, and asked them to serve bean sprouts mixed with pork ears, braised beef, and fried peanuts and rice, and ordered dishes such as spicy beef brisket pot, braised pork, green pepper back to the pot, boiled pork slices, 1,000 dried pot mushrooms, and steamed pork ribs with soy sauce. Xiao Yu wants two vegetarian dishes. I started eating, but there was a fight in the lobby. The lake-green robe man and the tawny robe man both used swords, and in a blink of an eye, they overturned the two tables, making a loud noise, the soup splashed, and the two guests were knocked to the ground, and they couldn't get up with their hands twice, and they were embarrassed. As soon as the small-mouthed guy went over to persuade him, the yellow-brown robe man stabbed him dangerously with a white snake exhalation, and Xiao Yu, who was sitting next to him, knew that the two of them were already defeated. Xiao Yu used the chopsticks in his hand to take a moment, and immediately pushed the guy diagonally to the side for two steps, so as to avoid hurting the innocent. Immediately I heard the screams again, and the two who fell to the ground did not get up after all, and they lay on the ground and twitched their legs two or three times and never moved again, and the blood flowed out and almost drowned them. There were two more small throwing knives in their chests, but they didn't stab the heart, otherwise their legs would not have twitched.

The man at the next table said to Xiao Yu: "Brother Xiao, the swordsman with broken intestines, has done his best to respect the true inheritance of the teacher, and it is so powerful to use chopsticks instead of swords." ”

The shopkeeper said: "Their personal grievances are settled in the hotel, and the guests don't need to panic, just eat with confidence." ”

He ordered four men to carry the body out.

"Wait!" Xiao Yu said, "They didn't kill each other, they were the other people who stabbed each other." Everyone looked at the two men who were still fighting, wearing fruit-green robes and tawny robes. This man killed it! Xiao Yu stretched out his hand and grabbed a middle-aged man in a black robe, who punched with his backhand and asked the black bear to probe and fight back. If Xiao Yu used the habitual Broken Intestine Sword, the man's clenched fist would be cut off to the ground. "Wow." The shopkeeper said, "Don't break the rules! ”

"In Xia Zhang Dongsen, I have been chasing them for five years." He turned around and arched his hand towards Xiao Yu, "These two people were originally bandits from Madi Cave, they had no grudges and no hatred, they destroyed the Song family at the Dingshui Dam, and they didn't even let go of the three-year-old child, should they be killed?" ”

"If it's true, it should be killed!" Xiao Yu said.

Zhang Dongsen said: "Xiao Yu, the swordsman with broken intestines, is really worthy of his name, if Brother Xiao makes the broken intestine sword, he is afraid that he will die." ”

"Then I hurt my face." Xiao Yu said.

Xiao Yu thought about it carefully, the guy just now obviously wanted to stop Zhang Dongsen from killing the two villains who were lying on the ground now, and he suddenly helped Zhang Dongsen. He used chopsticks, although he pushed away the guy, he still counted it as a loss. And the man's martial arts are actually not low.

"Brother Zhang killed people in the hotel, Brother Xiao helped, broke our rules, how to calculate this account." The shopkeeper said.

Xiao Yu said: "Then the big shopkeeper will watch it!" ”
