Sword of Coming

A man and a woman turned into Mud Bottle Alley. The young man among them wore a high crown on his head and a green pendant hanging around his waist. He looked more like a wealthy young man than a descendant of the richest man in the town, the Lu family. It's hard to tell the age of the woman. At first glance, she looks like a girl, with supple skin and a pointed chin, like an ice pick hanging on the edge of the eaves in winter. Another look revealed that she was thirty years old, with rosy eyes and enchanting figure. From head to toe, she had a flowing flow of romance. When she walked, she twisted her waist, giving her a charm that a small town woman never had.

The woman looked left and right, full of curiosity, and even reached out to touch the yellow mud wall. She couldn't find any clues and asked curiously: "Fu Nanhua, is this really one of the hidden blessed places you mentioned? Why did my ancestor give the map of the situation of Kanyu before? But this alley was not marked clearly?"

The young man answered the question inappropriately: "If you and I really get an unexpected surprise here, how will you repay me?"

The woman turned sideways and intertwined her hands and fingers behind her, making her chest look fuller and fuller. She smiled softly, half-seriously and half-falsely: "How about you pick it up?"

The young man never expected her to be so straightforward, but instead she had no rules. What's more, coming here to "visit relatives and find friends" was responsible for the rise and fall of the entire family for hundreds of years, or even for thousands of years. No matter how careless he was, he would never dare to "visit relatives and friends". In this small town "under the watchful eye of the public", you have a romantic marriage with the woman in front of you.

So he quickly changed the subject, pointed to the depths of the alley, and said with a smile: "Fairy Cai, friends are friends, and business is business. I have to repeat it again. According to the previous agreement, there are two households in this Mud Bottle Alley. There is a pair of master and servant, a pair of mother and son, I can let you choose one of them first, and the capital of the bet is your Yunxia Mountain specialty Yungen Stone, which will be given to us, Old Dragon City, for ten yuan every year."

The woman nodded with a charming smile, "Of course you can."

The young man walked forward slowly and continued: "Next, once you get an opportunity here that the family did not expect, the item must be appraised by the ancestors of you and me, and a fair price will be given. After that, you Yunxia Mountain will take it out. Half of the equivalent Yungen Stone, Cai Jinjian, do you have any objections? In other words, are you sure that after you agree to this here and now, you will be able to convince you Yunxia Mountain after you have obtained the benefits and settled your pocket? Those patriarchs nodded in approval of this bet?"

The woman's face has changed, she is solemn and dignified, and she is completely different from before. She looks like a brothel oiran who has fallen into the dust of the world. She has suddenly transformed into the empress of the world. This woman known as Cai Jinjian of Yunxia Mountain said categorically: "Can!"

The young man narrowed his eyes, with a gloomy face, stopped and looked at the woman who was as tall as him, "The ugly words are ahead. You and I can form an alliance today for mutual benefit. It's not how you and I fell in love at first sight and had the same congenial mind. It's just that Old Long The city and Yunxia Mountain have been hard-earned by the ancestors and elders for hundreds of years. If we screw up and provoke the thunderous wrath of those old men, let alone me, Fu Nanhua, or you, Cai Jinjian, even if we mess up, Our parents and masters can’t bear it either!”

Cai Jinjian smiled and said: "So during this time in the small town, we must be honest with each other and cooperate sincerely, right?"

Fu Nanhua also looked handsome and charming in this dark alley, and said with a smile: "Besides..."

Fu Nanhua turned his head and glanced. After retracting his gaze, he lowered his voice and said: "We still need to be careful about those two people. After all, they are not Zhengyang Mountain. They cannot be called well-known and upright people. And I heard that those two guys , I have a very wild way and don’t follow any rules.”

The tall woman narrowed her talkative eyes and said sweetly, "That's why I, Cai Jinjian, chose you, Mr. Fu."

Fu Nanhua said softly: "Let's go. Although there are sages here to suppress and balance the forces of all parties, it is better to be careful. It will not be good if the boat capsizes in the gutter. In short, whether you and I can leap over the dragon's gate, we can do it in one fell swoop."

This proud man of heaven, who is famous all over the world, has become more and more determined in his Taoism, and silently said in his heart: "The great road can be expected, but if I block my way forward, the immortals and Buddhas can be killed!"

He looked deep into the alley and saw a thin young man walking from the opposite side.

It was the second time we met.

The two of them continued to move forward leisurely, like a couple of immortals falling into the mortal world.

The tall woman also saw the young man and joked: "We bumped into each other twice in the alley over there. Do you think this young man can do it?"

She only said half of what she said. Of course Fu Nanhua knew what she meant, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "My Fairy Cai, there are six hundred households in the town, plus the slaves and servants maintained by the ten rich families, there are nearly five thousand people." , no matter how hidden dragons and crouching tigers are in a small town, there is still a certain number, not to mention that over the years, those good embryos with good roots, good luck and connections have long been secretly divided up. The reason why we were able to 'pick up' this time is nothing more than those A man with great supernatural powers who has unpredictable thoughts is just deliberately letting things slip."

The woman also laughed at herself, feeling ashamed of her naive thoughts.

After hesitating, Fu Nanhua still said: "I don't know how your ancestor taught the secrets of heaven, but my father told me something. After entering this place, if someone makes you feel chilly, you must take the initiative to retreat and stay away from him. Never be so easy. Disobedience and provocation, after all, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this place, which is unfathomable. People who have a bad feeling in their hearts are probably the opponents of this small town exploration and treasure hunt. As for the people who make you close to your heart, they may be the lucky people in this area. And hopefully it will turn into your own opportunity. When the time comes, just don’t kill people easily and don’t break those old unshakable rules. In addition, whether you buy it, cheat it, or take it by force, it all depends..."

The corners of Cai Jinjian's lips raised, "It depends on our mood."

She suddenly frowned and said, "Master Fu, why don't you let me bring the descendants of the Zhao family who are rooted in the local area, even though I also learned some local dialects before leaving..."

Fu Nanhua interrupted the woman's words, shook his head and said: "Those big surnamed portals have always had secret channels connected with the outside world. They can convey some innocuous news under the nose of the saint without being regarded as overstepping the boundaries. Accumulated over generations, we have a profound foundation. The real backers of these surnames, our Laolongcheng and Yunxiashan, are still slightly inferior. Furthermore, borrowing the power of outsiders is not beautiful after all, and it is easy to create branches and delay major events. Wait a minute if you don’t want to talk. , I’ll do it for you.”

She smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, just say something difficult to speak. I'm not so squeamish."

Fu Nanhua laughed it off, and Cai Jinjian said nothing more.

In the final analysis, friends who formed an alliance halfway are not as good as a family.

What's more, in the eyes of some ambitious people who aspire to enlightenment, what are grandparents, fathers and sons, husbands and wives, brothers?

Fu Nanhua had a calm smile and was graceful and noble, like a son of a wealthy family.

The reason why he revealed the secret and told Cai Jinjian the "inner mind" secretly passed down by his father to Cai Jinjian was actually very simple.

Compared with the other two people who were traveling with him before, a dull middle-aged man and a stern girl in black, Fu Nanhua had a crush on the ally woman beside him, Cai Jinjian from Yunxia Mountain, as soon as he stepped into the gate of the small town. Killing intent!

Fu Nanhua subconsciously reached out and held the green pendant around his waist.

The old dragon spreads the rain, which is an ingenious work done by nature.

A gentleman has no reason, and the jade never leaves his body.

Cai Jinjian thought for a while, closed her eyes, opened her eyes after a moment and said, "Song Jixin, Gu Can... I'll choose Gu Can."

Fu Nanhua raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay. It's a deal!"

In the view of the two of them, when the boy turned left and right and walked to the alley, he was about to unlock the door and push in.

Fu Nanhua and Cai Jinjian walked forward quickly and said with a smile, "What a coincidence, we meet again."

The shabby boy was Chen Ping'an who came from Gu Can's house. After hearing the voice, he turned around, nodded and asked, "Is something wrong?"

Fu Nanhua said in a skillful and fluent small town dialect: "This is called Mu Ping Lane. I would like to ask you if there is a man named Song Jixin living here, and a child named Gu Can. I am We are from the capital, and our family is a family friend of Song Jixin's father. The sister next to me, whose surname is Cai, is Gu Can's mother's maiden family, so the two of us were walking together, and we happened to be in the same alley. What do you think? By coincidence or not, it feels like everything came together. It’s really a coincidence.”

Fu Nanhua smiled calmly, even when he was talking to the straw-shoe boy at the bottom of the city. In order to take care of the boy, he bent slightly and always maintained this posture to talk to the boy. It will make others feel that you are gentle, courteous, thrifty and a humble gentleman.

The boy who raised his head hummed, smiled shyly, and said softly: "It's a coincidence."

Fu Nanhua's smile grew stronger and he said warmly: "So where do these two families live?"

Unexpectedly, the young man shook his head and said: "I was an apprentice in a dragon kiln not long ago. I have lived outside the town for many years. I just moved here and I am not familiar with the neighbors yet. Do you want to ask others?"

Fu Nanhua smiled and was not in a hurry to speak. He seemed to be thinking about his words.

The tall woman smiled and said: "Little brother, lying is not good. Do you think we are bad people? Take a step back and ask, what bad things can we do in broad daylight?"

Chen Pingan blinked, "But I really don't know."

Cai Jinjian resumed his usual speech and asked Fu Nanhua, "Does this child want reward?"

Fu Nanhua's face remained as usual, "It doesn't look like that."

The tall woman's brows showed a hint of hidden annoyance, "If that doesn't work, we can find the person by asking door to door."

Fu Nanhua waved his hand to her and patiently tried to persuade the young man: "Do us a small favor and I'll give you something. How about it?"

The young man scratched his head, his body was thin and his eyes were clear.

Fu Nanhua suddenly stood up straight.

As a result, they saw a bookish young man squatting on the wall not far away, looking at them.

Standing near the young man in simple and elegant clothes, stood a young girl, with the upper half of her face exposed. She was delicate, clean, and had dark eyebrows.

At that moment, Fu Nanhua was determined.

The young man in front of him must be his own.

The young man stood up and asked loudly: "Are you looking for someone?"

Fu Nanhua and Cai Jinjian had no choice but to raise their heads. The former said, "Yes, I'm looking for you. The sister next to me is looking for Gu Can, can you help?"

The young man frowned and said, "Do you know me?"

Fu Nanhua smiled and said: "Of course I don't know you, but I know Mr. Song who is now serving in the Ministry of Rites."

Song Jixin got straight to the point and asked, "I can help you find Gu Can, the slug. What are the benefits?"

Without saying a word, Fu Nanhua took off the green pendant from his waist and threw it high to the young man standing on the low wall, "It's yours."

After Song Jixin got it, he was slightly frightened and his expression was normal. He lowered his head and said to his maid Zhigui, "You go ahead."

She nodded and walked out of the yard. When the girl stood quietly in the narrow alley, the entire clay bottle alley seemed to light up in an instant.

Fu Nanhua smiled at the straw-shoe boy and said, "Little guy, I have a message for you. Although the rain is wide, it will not moisten the grass without roots."

Then he took the lead and walked towards the girl.

The tall woman did not move, her eyes were playful, and she asked the boy in a low voice: "Do you know what it means?"

Her eyes sparkled, and she became interested for no reason. Without waiting for the boy's answer, she laughed heartily and said: "Actually, I'm telling you that you missed a big opportunity. This young man, as long as you pick a little bit from between his fingernails, it will be enough." May you live an extremely nourishing life at the foot of the mountain. But as luck would have it, you won't know what you missed today for the rest of your life. It's really a blessing among misfortunes, otherwise you would regret it."

Fu Nanhua heard this and felt that she was playing the piano to a cow.

Outside the small town, the gap between people, especially the difference between high and low, is even greater than the difference between yin and yang.

Cai Jinjian walked backwards towards the maid, so she was facing the straw-shoe boy, "Although the rain is wide, it will not wet the grass without roots, remember this."

The boy's expression didn't change much, but he suddenly said loudly: "Be careful what's behind you..."

Cai Jinjian suddenly stiffened.

The boy lowered his voice, "Shit."
