Lanke Chess Edge

Chapter 296: Flying Swordsman

   This town is called Nandao County. Although it is not big, it looks prosperous.

   But after a careful comparison, it is naturally far from here, at least from some of the expressions of the people, you can see the obvious difference.

   If you want to describe it in terms of fate, the difference is that everyone in Ning'an County can be regarded as living and working in peace and contentment, and there is a certain anxiety in the thoughts on the human face here.

   There is a market not long after entering the city. The streets are very crowded, and there are people coming and going with horses and horses. Some places have to let go.

  Ji Yuan was dressed in a white shirt, walking slowly and in no hurry, with a diffused temple above her hair, and a black jade hairpin that looked very good in her hair. More importantly, there was only one person.

After walking down the street for a while, Ji Yuan found that he was being targeted by several groups of people. Judging from the sight he felt and the whispers he heard, these people almost didn't have any good intentions, not thinking If you want to steal, you want to kill yourself.

   'The world is in a hot and cold state, this security is really uncomplimentable. ’

   sighed in his heart, but Ji Yuan didn't pay much attention to it, his pace quickened a little, and he turned around and left several groups of people behind.

   Passing by a stall on a street corner, Ji Yuan stopped.

This stall is a dry cake shop, but it is different from the ones that Jiyuan bought before. When he happened to pass by, he saw the owner who made the cakes using two large iron molds to bake the upper and lower cakes respectively, embedded in them. A kind of salty dried vegetable, after closing it is also sprinkled with some powdered sesame seeds, Ji Yuan wanted to try it after smelling it.

   "Seller, how do you sell these cakes?"

   Ji Yuan saw that there was no sound at the booth, so he stopped in front of the booth and asked.

   The old man who made the pancake looked up and saw a gentleman who looked like a scholar. This cannot be said to be very rare in Nandao County, but at least it is rare, and the accent does not look like a local.

   "This cake is sold for two cents a pound, or eight cents a pound. There are about five cakes."

   "Oh, may I have a taste of this dried vegetable?"

   "The taste of dried vegetables?"

   The old man felt a little strange, but he nodded after hesitation, and reached out to Jiyuan some of the dried vegetables in the pottery altar of his stall.

   Ji Yuan tasted it, and smiled at the familiar salty aroma.

   "The shop owner's ancestry is from Dazhenji Prefecture, right?"

   "Well, this isn't..."

  The old man said something, as if he suddenly thought of something, and immediately said it again.

   "It seems that the gentleman knows the goods. To tell you the truth, this dried vegetable was indeed taught by a Dazhen person back then. As for where he came from Dazhen, the old man does not know."

  Kiyuan nodded.

   "So that's the case, then please let the store weigh ten catties of pancakes for me."

   "Ten pounds?"

   "Yes, ten pounds!"

   "Hey, wait a minute, guest, the ready-made ones are only a little over six pounds. I'll make them for you right away, and they'll be ready in no time!"

  Ten catties of pancakes are big business for the old man. If they are sold out, most of today's goods will be gone.

  The old man had quick hands and feet, chatted with Ji Yuan while making pancakes, and finished all ten catties of pancakes in a while.

After passing the scale, he naturally had to pay. He took out the money bag, which looked bulging, but when he looked inside, the copper coins that took up the bulk of the money were all printed with "Yuande Tongbao". Since they were Dazhen coins , of course it is not in circulation here, so I had to take out a broken piece of silver.

   "Here, the shopkeeper weighs the silver first."

   "Oh, good, the guest officer gave me money!"

   This old man has never been out of Nandao County, so he doesn't know what happened in other places, but in Nandao County, sometimes copper coins are very confusing, and the two cents per cake in his mouth refers to the standard kind.

   But many copper coins are actually not up to the standard. They are made of private money and other materials. There are also some copper coins that are exaggeratedly printed and can be used for ten, but they do not have that weight. Many people do not recognize them when they are traded.

  In this case, gold and silver are extremely precious, and their purchasing power is far greater than that of chastity, and they can often be exchanged for copper coins that are more valuable than they should be.

  Many people directly use silver to buy a lot of "real money", and then melt it and then mix it with private casting. One tael of silver can be used as the value of three or four taels of silver.

   It is rare to buy pancakes directly for Baiyin. The old man estimated that there was almost no copper in the money bag.

Seeing the silver in Bai Huahua, the shopkeeper was very happy, and his face was ruddy. He weighed the weight. With this piece of silver, he would have made forty cents. Now it is estimated that if it is less, he will eventually be able to make a profit. More than one hundred and fifty texts.

   In a few places far away, some eyes have already seen Ji Yuan's bulging money bag, and even more clearly saw the silver that was taken out, and there were people whispering in the corner of the back of the truck.

   "It's a big fish, and the money bag is probably all white and yellow!"

   "That's right...and that hosta, I just took a look at it while passing by, it's worth a fortune!"

   "Shh... go."

   At the cake stand, the money was over the scale, and the change was also found. The old man at the booth tied the cakes into a string with twine, handed them to Ji Yuan, looked left and right, and whispered.

   "Sir, you are a foreigner. From the old man's point of view, some people are already eyeing you. You, be careful!"

   Ji Yuan's conversation is funny, friendly and gentle, and it is easy to attract people's favor. When the old man sees a lot of things, he naturally sees that there are eyes around him that have bad intentions against this big gentleman, so he can't help but remind him.

   Ji Yuan smiled, and bowed his hands to the old man before taking the cake.

   "Thank you for the reminder, I will be careful if you save money."

   After finishing speaking, Ji Yuan took the pancake and turned around and strode away, walking around for a while, and when he passed an alley, the bunch of pancakes in his hand had disappeared.

   In the distance behind, several men have been struggling to follow Ji Yuan.

   "Hu...hu...this man, this man walks really fast."

   "Hey...I mean, look at him in a gentle manner...Hey, where is the cake in his hand, why is it gone?"

   "What do you care about his pancakes? It's alright if he's not wrong!" "Go, go, go!"

   "That's right, you can't lose it."

   The people in front kept their feet, and they couldn't rest. After a few breaths of relief, they speeded up and chased after them.

   Ji Yuan has been walking in front of him. The others were either thrown off or gave up, but the group behind him kept chasing him.

   It's not that he can't escape casually with a blind eye, but after listening to them talking about "slaughtering a few fat sheep" and so on, Ji Yuan didn't want them to get lost.

   In the evening, Ji Yuan was already going around and out of the city, and the nine people who followed him never lost him, showing his strong determination.

  There is a pavilion five miles north of the county seat of Nandao, which is simply and rudely named "Wuli Pavilion". Ji Yuan stopped here, took out a pancake and sat in the pavilion to eat.

  Because it was freshly made today, although it is not soft, it is still delicious, at least it is not crumbly.

  The nine people who followed Ji Yuan hid behind a low hill covered with trees in the distance, but at the moment they were panting and resting to recover their strength.

   After Ji Yuan slowly finished eating a pancake, the nine people over there were almost resting, and they approached Wuliting a little bit with the rope and the guy.

   As the saying goes, the appearance is born from the heart, and the nine people's faces are now hideous, which is more worthy of the word vicious than the previous Ba Zi.

   "The scholar, you can run very well?"

   "Hey, hand over all your valuables!"

   The man in the lead was sturdy, carrying an iron whip, and before the leader approached Wuliting, his mouth was already arrogant and threatening. They had already seen it, and there was no one around Wuliting at all.

   Ji Yuan shook the crumbs in his hands together, put them in his mouth and ate them, he also clapped his hands and stood up, looking humanely.

   "If I put down my valuables, you can let me go?"

   The nine people had already gathered around the Wuli Pavilion, and the leader looked up and down at Jiyuandao.

   "Don't worry about letting us go, we have to search."

  Kiyuan nodded.

   "Then let me go after the body search?"

   "Hahahaha... It's a hassle to let you go no matter how much you go. There is a wilderness around this Wuli Pavilion, and there are so many wild wolves and beasts that you can just kill or bury them."

   Ji Yuan heard this in his ears, looked at a few people in front of him, and suddenly burst out laughing, although a few people in the line of sight were very blurred, but their hostility was very obvious.

   "Hehe, there is no need to discuss?"

   Ji Yuan was still able to laugh at this meeting, which made several people feel a little jealous.

   "You, are you an expert in the arena?"

   However, Ji Yuan did not answer them, instead he turned to look at the woods on the side of the pavilion.

   In the ears of Jiyuan, the sound of stepping and breaking the air approached, and after just two breaths, a black shadow flashed from the treetops in the forest.

   "Zheng"

   The sound of the long sword being unsheathed was accompanied by the cold light of the sword body, and the companions came through. The moment it flashed in front of the pavilion, the sound of the blade piercing into the flesh sounded.

   "Someone..."

"Puff puff…"

The sword blade slid across, and the iron whip man and the three around him didn't even have a reaction. They fell to the ground with the sword. The sword swept away.

   "Be careful..." "Quick..."

"Puff puff…"

   A few people fell down without even speaking.

   In an instant, the nine people surrounding the pavilion had all fallen down, and those who came stood outside the pavilion, throwing off the blood on the sword, and returning the sword to its sheath.

   "Good skill!"

Ji Yuan sincerely praised, standing at the height of a cultivator, UU reading www.uukanshu.com and other methods are naturally nothing, but he is also definitely a martial arts master. The moves, the use of infuriating qi, etc. are also thoroughly seen, and the human body and swordsmanship are very good.

   "Sir is still a gentleman, and he still looks good after many years! I thought I was mistaken just now, but I didn't expect that you are really here, sir!"

  Kiyuan opened her eyes slightly and looked up and down with her blurred vision.

   "This voice... You are Yan Shaoxia? Oh, now I have to be called Yan Daxia!"

  The visitor in black attire took a few steps closer to the pavilion, and bowed to Ji Yuan with his sword in his arms.

   "Yan Fei has seen Mr. Ji, but he still remembers me!"

  Yan Fei raised his head and looked at Ji Yuan. If an ordinary person only glanced at it, it would be difficult to see the abnormality of Ji Yuan's half-opened eyes, but he could see the pair of eyes that were still fresh in his memory.

   "Hehehe, the voices of the young heroes, Ji will never forget them for the rest of their lives."

  Yan Fei looked at the corpse beside him and asked with a smile.

   "Sir, I killed nine people, do you have any opinion?"

   Ji Yuan shook his head and smiled, from the decisiveness of Yan Fei's sword, he could see something.

   "People die for wealth, birds die for food, what about those who disagree? If they don't listen, you may not listen either."
