"It counts that you bastards are in high spirits, and you are so happy to gamble around the table dry and dry," he was dripping with sweat, his short riding boots were filled with rainwater, and he walked squeaky "I'm really unlucky. I'm assigned to pick up customers in the rain... When I see Guan Baye's shadow, I feel a little hairy all over my body." "You... What do you say about the doorknob?... ...he didn't rush here overnight in the rain?" "Look," said Xiao Xie'er pouted, "I met him at Xin's shop, and I dare to see that his white horse would break through the first gate within a short meal."

Hearing Xiao Xie'er's words, the commotion in the room fell silent, the dice thrower was still grabbing the magnetic bowl, the rest of the people were all busy clearing up the money on the table, a few couldn't hold back, rushed to pick the hanging Gun straps on the wall.There was a horse neighing under the porch, and the flame of the simple lantern flashed and jumped when it met a gust of wind passing by the hood.No matter how many guns are ready in Yangjiao Town, the name Guan Ba ​​is always like a flash of light that can tear people's hearts apart... Yes, Guan Baye's magical marksmanship has caused many people to suffer a lot. Lou and Wu Jiadu fought twice, he was famous for falling down when he shot, and seeing blood when he stretched out his gun. Even in the dark night, he could use the twilight of the stars and moon to capture the flashing silhouette of a hundred steps away. When the machine head was pulled, the head blossomed, as if reaching out to put a plaster on a bald head.But that wasn't terrible, because no matter how capable he was, Baye Guan was still a man of flesh and blood. He went straight into Yangjiao Town single-handedly, surrounded by hundreds of guns, no matter what he had no room for him to use.I'm afraid that even though he clearly knows that there are hundreds of guns waiting to kill him, he still believes that he has nowhere to go, and it's really coming!This kind of courage, this kind of pride, this kind of awe-inspiring power, there is really no other person in the world.

"Hey, you said Guan Ba ​​is here, how should our boss deal with him?" The dice rang, and the man's hand holding the bowl trembled a little: "I think this is really a big problem." "You're right!" Xiao Xie'er said, "unless he draws his gun first, no one can kill him. You all know our boss's temper. If he openly kills an unarmed Guan Ba , he will have no face in the world in the world in the future....Guan Baye has gone so far with this move, he forced our boss to use no tricks, and we have to face him face to face! " "As you said, what is the result of the showdown?"

Little Scorpion shook his head. "God only knows," he said. "We'll just have to wait and see!" The rest of the people were also in twos and threes, whispering and speculating, discussing, some sympathized, some worried, some admired, some hated, some feared, Guan Baye had already set off a storm in their hearts, no matter what everyone said No matter how you feel about hugging, everyone is anxiously waiting for the result, which may affect their future fate. Xiao Xie'er asked the shopkeeper for a jug of hot wine and drank it.Many eyes casted their eyes on the street, between the far and near lamp balls, the middle of the street was dizzy, with some dazzling light spurs bursting out, those were raindrops meeting the glare of the lights.A guy was listening to something, suddenly he half-opened his mouth, and couldn't help reaching out to touch the handle of the pistol.

"Here!...he...come...come...here!" He said nervously, "Listen...listen! That's the sound of horseshoes." The other guy listened for a while, then shook his head and said, "Don't be so nervous that you make people panic, okay? Are there horseshoes here?!... This is the sound of raindrops hitting foreign iron sheets." "Hey, there must be something wrong with your ears," the stomp said, "Listen carefully. Listen! Could it be the sound of horseshoes? It's raining and the soil is soft, so you can't hear it clearly." "That's right." Xiao Xie'er also seemed to have heard something, threw away the wine cup, tightened his gun belt and said, "I have to go to the temple on North Street and report to the boss——he is waiting for guests to enter the town Already!"

He strode out of the shop door, quickly untied the leather reins on the porch pillars with skillful techniques, put his hands on the saddle and exerted strength, and flew flat on the horse's back. The chestnut horse darted into the rain like an arrowhead.Suddenly, the rest of the people really heard the sound of horseshoes stepping on the water, as if they sounded all the way from far, far away. The sound of horseshoes is soft and slow, naturally forming a rhythm that wrings people's hearts.Tap, tap, tap, tap,... tap, tap, tap, tap... This soft and slow sound, but it makes all the bandits who are lying in the dark or gathering in the teahouse and tavern The crowd was overwhelmed and became the only voice in the rainy night in spring. ...Tap, tap, tap, tap, before seeing the figure, one can associate the majesty and aura of the incoming person from the steady and heavy sound of hooves, which makes the fingers holding the gun handle tense He trembled, as if he was as insignificant as an ant in front of this visitor, and he was not worthy of firing a gun at all. ...Taping, kicking, under the light ball of the doorway gate, the shadows of people and horses flashed past, and then merged into the dizzy darkness, only the light spurs on the ground could be seen flashing around the horse's hooves.

Slowly, the white horse passed through the second gate.In the darkness, people can vaguely see the hazy white silhouette. A piece of jade on a white horse seems to have seen the ambush behind the corridors on both sides. It suddenly raised its neck and let out a long and loud cry, which echoed under the corridor. He said, arousing the echo of the horses in the corridor. But the white horse still came slowly, approaching the street where the lights of the two horses were hazy, and the figure of Guan Baye was also clearly revealed against the light. He was sitting on the horse's back like a stone sculpture, with leather The bridle was on the judge's head in front of the saddle, and he wore neither rain cape nor cape, and his blue satin and silk cotton robes were all wet by the rain; his two guns were in the leather case, Hanging on the side of the saddle, there are also crystal raindrops on his face. ...Tap, tap, a white horse and a piece of jade don't need a lead, walking leisurely, the expression on Guan Baye's face is as peaceful as if he is pacing in the night rain. People and horses, the guns aimed at his chest and back, openly and secretly, paid attention to him, and he didn't even seem to notice that the rain was hitting his face and clothes all over the street.

The white horse came straight, and the sound of the hooves of the horse was a powerful nightmare spell, raising a binding magic power, making the bandits in the wine shop from being panic-stricken to dumbfounded. , Naturally retreated into two rows, the hands holding the gun handles were all loosened at some point, and each of them stood with their hands down, as if waiting for someone to come. ... The white horse walked to the corridor, Guan Baye grabbed the leather rein and shook it lightly, and it stopped firmly. "Shopkeeper," he smiled, and said to the shopkeeper who stood dazed inside the long cabinet, "is there still a guest room here?"

"Oh," the shopkeeper woke up with a start, glanced hastily to the left and right, put on a courteous smile, and stepped out of the long cabinet door to meet him, "Guest room?... Yes, yes, yes... I heard that you If you want to come, it has been cleaned up and prepared... Hehe, please." "Okay. Okay." Guan Baye got off his horse and handed the leather reins to the shopkeeper. He didn't touch his two pistols in the leather pistol case, but just brushed the rain off his body, Stepping into the living room, he turned around and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you to add some beans for the animal. It's been a busy few days, so it's hard work."

"Yes, yes, yes," the shopkeeper was a little too attentive, stuttering, "Don't worry, Ba Ye, I will take care of it... according to... according to...." He raised his voice again Called: "Xiao Er, lead Ba Ye upstairs." Looking at the hesitant look of the waiter with bald spots on his head, he said: "Come here and lead the horse to the trough, and mix beans with the wheat bran so that it can be fed raw. , I will personally serve Eighth Master." Guan Baye stepped into the store with one foot, and all the gangsters in the shop became mice under the cat's paws. They all backed away and grunted reluctantly in their throats: "Baye." He started to look at them with great interest, two gentle but cold eyes flashed across their faces like torches, and then he turned to the shopkeeper and said, "How long have they been occupying Yangjiao Town? "

"Well, um," the shopkeeper said in a deep voice, "Fourth Master Zhu...has been in town for at least half a month." "You haven't been robbed, have you?" Guan Baye said. "Well, we didn't shoot," one of the bandits interjected. "In Yangjiao Town, there may not be any big households that fourth master Zhu can look up to." The shopkeeper said with a wry smile, "This master is right, they didn't rob them." "Okay, okay." Guan Baye said: "There is hot tea and rice, wait for me to go upstairs for me. In the copper stove, the charcoal fire is getting hotter. My wet clothes are still waiting to be dried. Some people come to me and come back. I won’t see him tonight.” He lifted the hem of his robe and walked to the stairs, then turned back suddenly, pushed the unattended dice bowl back to the center of the stage, made a beckoning gesture, and said with a smile: “ Just make fun of yours, don't spoil everyone's interest just because I come to Guan Bayi. I have something to do with someone, and it has nothing to do with your boss, so you just make fun of yours, if there is anyone tonight When I see your boss, please tell me——Guan Ba ​​greets Fourth Master Zhu, and just meet him tomorrow." It wasn't until Guan Baye Angzang's back disappeared at the stairs that the gangsters who were imprisoned by the other party's majestic nightmare began to roll their eyes like a ghost, you looked at me, I looked at you, exchanging surprises.A gunshot flew high into the sky, it was Sa Gang's signal.The messy herd of horses ran across the street toward North Mercedes, the faint horns whistling intermittently. Everyone knows that before Guan Baye meets Zhu Si Judge, Zhu Si Judge has already lost a battle. mid afternoon. The continuous drizzle stopped temporarily, and the low cumulus clouds on the zenith were still pressing down thickly, congealing into a whole piece of smoky gray, showing no sign of retreating.Guan Baye walked slowly on the wet street of Yangjiao Town, leaving his clear footprints on the wet sand on the street.Five steps away from him, the little Xie'er who was sent to meet him took the reins of a white horse and a piece of jade, and followed unhurriedly.Under the long corridors on both sides of the street, there were groups of bandits standing, chattering about something, and when Baye Guan passed by, they all lowered their heads and hands, watching his back silently. "I don't understand him?" A gangster said: "I don't understand what kind of character this Guan Baye is?!... Our boss confronted him in Wanjialou and Wujiadu It can be said that life and death are life and death enemies, and what our boss is worrying about day and night is how to capture and kill him?! He actually came like this!" "Oh, it's easy to come, but... hard to go!" I don't know who said this sentence from the bottom of my heart, causing many people to sigh in the same way.Not long ago, amidst the sound of gunfire, the howling of snail horns, and in the red-hot night, the name Guan Baye would make people frightened and frightened, even after leaving, this name still makes people feel anxious Uneasy, mentioning him is like facing a mighty liger. ...But after meeting, all these impressions caused by the illusion of panic disappeared. Guan Baye walked slowly, with a smoky smile on his face, a smile that surpassed life and death, like that Deeply tainted in people's hearts, his eyes are gentle, serene and calm, but with a hint of pity, who is pity? …His broad shoulders seem to carry a day of gloomy melancholy clouds alone. "This man can't die no matter what," another bandit said in admiration: "To tell you the truth, if you can die under his gun, you can die with conviction. We people have dark hearts. When we see him, we will die." I feel so dirty, why draw a gun with him?!... He is destined to die, and he shouldn't die in our hands. What an upright and bright man, he really is..." Guan Baye walked by slowly...
