Nightfall

The night of Lin 47 Street was deep, the door of Lao Bi Zhai was pushed open, and then quickly closed again. The dim lights inside flashed like a star and then went out again.

Ning Que relieved the heavy weapon behind him, tore off the cloth cover outside the **** umbrella, and took off his wet and heavy shirt, and handed it to Sang Sang who was standing in front of him. The usual question was: "Hungry, face Are you cooked? "

Sang Sang handed him the dry towel in his hand, nodded with emphasis, and said happily, "I will bring it to you."

A bowl of hot soup noodles was served. It was still four peppercorns, but there were more onions than usual. The golden tender white omelette spread on the surface was extremely rare. Chopping people is indeed more tiring than hoeing, Ning Que is so wet at this time, even more hungry in the abdomen, where can resist the temptation of adding onion fried egg noodles, suddenly the eyes light up, put down a slightly damp towel, pick When I picked up the chopsticks, I suddenly ate, and it seemed extremely sweet.

Sang Sang was happy to see him eat. The dark face was full of joy. He picked up the wet towel and stood behind him to start wiping his hair, reminding him from time to time that he was too hot not to eat too fast.

Just then, two coughs sounded in the dim shop. He was always ignored, as if the invisible Changan Cheng gangster, watching the pair of masters and servants turning a blind eye to their own conversation, finally couldn't help but say, "The face is very fragrant."

A few hours ago, the first sentence towards Xiaoshu came to Laobi Zhai.

Sang Sang continued to wipe his hair for Ning Que, as if he had not seen this person or heard this sentence. Ning Que's reaction was somewhat different from earlier, and he bowed his head while eating soup noodles and said vaguely: "Give him a bowl too."

After a while, the second bowl of noodle soup was served. He glanced around Xiaoshu and found that there were no seats other than the armchair, and he did not care. He squatted down beside Ning Que and took a few bites with chopsticks. , But found that his noodles seemed to be a bit different from the noodles in Ning Que Bowl.

Standard four peppercorns, thirty green onions, but no fried eggs.

He couldn't help picking up chopsticks and tapping on Ning Que's bowl edge to remind him. Ning Que glanced with Yu Guang, almost laughing, and turned to persuade Sang Sang to say: "Don't be too stingy, fry again. egg."

The omelette finally came, Ning Que and Zhao Xiaoshu happily eating noodles while holding a small bowl like a small bowl. Sang Sang squatted not far in front of the two and put the dress and cloth cover in a copper basin to burn, the shop No one spoke.

I do n’t know how long it took. Ning Que put down the noodle bowl in his hand, leaned back comfortably, rubbed his slightly swollen belly, looked at Chao Xiaoshu crouching beside him, and said, "I killed more than five people. Again, you can count again ... Do n’t be too stingy, but I let Sang Sang add you fried eggs. "

Looked at Xiaoshu with a bowl of noodles, looked at him with a wry smile and said, "It turns out that I was waiting for me here, two thousand two."

"Deal." Ning Que seemed to be casual, but her mood was a little excited. As for Sang Sang, who was squatting beside the copper basin to burn clothes, he clenched his fist tightly and secretly calculated that two thousand and two silvers would be worth it. What a pile.

Sang Sang was going to wash the dishes. He handed over the bowl with a small half of noodle soup to Xiaoshu reluctantly, then frowned slightly, and slowly raised the corner of his sleeve to cover his lips. When he lowered it, he already had more on the sleeve. Blood stains.

Ning Que looked at his sleeves, knowing that in the previous series of battles, this extremely powerful middle-aged man was still not badly injured. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Are you all right?"

Zhao Xiaoshu took a bowl of coarse tea handed over from Sang Sang, smiled and thanked, and calmly said after taking a sip: "Don't worry, I grew up in the alley of Dongcheng Poor Lane since I was young. I don't know how many racks I have played in my life. I do n’t know how many times I have suffered more than this injury. Every time the Chou family looked at me with blood and thought I could never get up again, I could always get up and give them a fatal blow. "

Ning Que laughed and said: "A **** who only knows about fighting is actually able to practice, and it is so powerful. I am so obsessed with the way of practice, but I can't even touch the door in the first stage. Master Haotian is really blind."

Smiled towards Xiaoshu, and did not continue this topic. The gang leader who soaked in the Black Night River and Lake in Changan City for the rest of his life could eventually become the great swordsman of Dongxuan Shangpin. During this period, he had some chances, but those chances were not enough.

"You said, you can turn over your cards tonight."

Ning Que ’s eyes fell through the wooden door of the shop and fell to a corner of the palace wall in the distance, saying: "Now I can probably guess that your hole card is in the palace, with such a deep background, no wonder you can not look at Changan House . "

"After tonight, probably people of the entire empire will envy me, because there is such a person standing behind me." Chao Xiaoshu said calmly: "But no one will know what I have paid for."

"What do you need to do to do things for the nobles in the palace?" Ning Que asked.

Zhao Xiaoshu smiled and said: "If these years are not haunted by common affairs, the man in the palace is in a hurry, I will have to deal with countless trivial things, or I have already broken through the hole and entered the realm of destiny. "

"That's all?" Ning Que continued to ask.

Chao Xiaoshu did n’t know what to think of, and fell into a long silence, his smile became a little bleak, and said slowly: "It still requires you to pay blood, do things to take into account the overall situation, then sometimes you can't be happy. Because you have to force out All my opponent's hole cards require me to bear for months, so I can't even protect my brother. "

Hearing this sentence, Ning Que ’s right hand was slightly tight, knowing that he was talking about Xiaoheizi, but he did n’t answer, and did n’t say the relationship between him and Xiaoheizi. He bowed his head and asked, "How is your brother?" dead?"

"My brother's name is Zall, a spy. The military department let him lurk around me, let him check if I colluded with the lunar kingdom, in fact, I just want to find an excuse to start the Spring Breeze Pavilion, maybe even directly I am planting. "

"But the brother is a brother after all, he told me all the inside story, naturally he will not check me for the military department, nor will he spoil me in accordance with the military order, and he, as a Datang soldier, is impossible. The secret of selling the bureaucratic bureau, so he was very painful to be caught in the middle these months. "

Zhao Xiaoshu's eyes drooped and said, "I want to come now. Even if it makes the man in the palace angry, I should tell him the truth about the matter earlier. Maybe he will die eventually, but at least that time will not be so painful. "

Ning Que asked randomly: "But you still haven't said how he died."

"The spy is the most dangerous job. When he does not fall to any party, he may die anytime, anywhere, and when he decides to fall to one of them, he is more likely to die. On that day he finally decided to put The military department ’s plan told me that the result was noticed by the military department, so it was cleaned and died across the shop. "

Looked at the wooden door of the shop towards the small tree, and looked at the gray wall that could not be seen.

Ning Que asked after a moment of silence: "It was the former Nanjin sword master?"

"Yes." Zhao Xiaoshu looked back at the juvenile young child's face and said with a smile: "From now on he will be a brother."

Ning raised his eyebrows slightly and replied with a smile: "Will you play too much?"

Smiled at Xiaoshu, and said, "One person and two brothers, this kind of thing is so simple."

"One person, but two bowls of fried egg noodles."

Ning Que shook his head and said with a smile: "The word" brother "is a bit of a street, and the famous brothers I know, if not some of them are lucky to die first, then these brothers will eventually turn against each other. I just want to help you tonight, Make some money by the way, can you not be so tacky and find some other meaning in life? "

Slowly frowning at Xiao Xiaoshu's eyebrow tip, looking at Ning Que with interest, some unexpectedly heard such a reply and asked, "It's as dark as you are, but the world in my eyes is so dark ... I am now I'm really curious about your past. If you are interested in telling me later, please remember to call me, I will ask for tea. "

Ning Que replied: "I don't want to recall those things myself, let alone tell the story to others."

Smiled at Xiaoshu: "Well, except for the fried egg noodles, what do you really mean by life?"

"The meaning of life is of course career and love, or money and women. I know you think this sentence is wonderful, I think this person is also wonderful, but can you not laugh so unpredictably?"

Ning shook his head helplessly, in order to make this Changan city gangster understand what it meant, asked Sang Sang who had just come over and asked, "Which girl do you think is suitable for your young grandma?"

Sang Sang wiped her small hand on the apron, and then frowned, thinking for a long time, before saying carefully: "I think the second girl sitting on your left hand is fine ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ That's Miss Lu Xue. "Ning Que thought about the girl's soft waist and smiled and asked:" Why do you think this girl is suitable for my wife? "

Sang Sang opened the eyes of Liu Liuye and replied seriously: "The makeup powder on the face is even and thin, it feels very clean when smiling, the teeth are white, I feel very healthy when I look at it, and I have secretly looked at her waist and hips. Very good to have children. "

Ning looked back and smiled proudly at Xiaoshu.

Looked at Xiaoshu on the small dimples on his left cheek, and thought, he kept a shop every day and discussed with his little teenage maid which prostitute is suitable for childbirth and suitable for being his wife. Is this the meaning of life?

Suddenly he thought of the little maid leaning on the door before leaving Lao Bi Zhai, thought of the two bowls of hot omelette noodles after returning to Lao Bi Zhai, thinking about himself who had been forgotten in the corner, thinking about the pair of masters and servants The feeling that the world is so natural that no one can insert it, gradually understood something, and said with a smile: "The original meaning of life is life."

Ning Que shook his head and said with a smile: "It's sour, this is too sour."

Looking at the young boy's expression, he knew that he didn't understand what he was talking about, and naturally he wouldn't break those things. He stood up and walked to the shop door. He turned back and smiled and said, "I should go now. There are still many things to be dealt with in Changan City. Someone will come to you tomorrow, and then he will take you to a place. "

Hearing the last few words of this sentence, a trace of alertness appeared on Ning Que's face. Instead of asking where to go, he directly asked the key core of the matter: "Can you not go?"

Pushed the wooden door of the shop towards Koshu and said neatly: "No."
