Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Three ghosts move together

Wushuang led the black horse, passed the gatehouse of Qingxiang Town, and walked lightly on the stone road leading from east to west, and looked around curiously, seemingly aimlessly. This is a large town of considerable scale, with houses lined along the road and hundreds of families living together, it is quite prosperous.Although Wushuangnv covered her tight-fitting clothes with a loose robe, she still attracted everyone's attention because of her extraordinary beauty.To be honest, it's just her slender and moving figure, with her shiny black hair full of health and beauty, and her fair and tender skin, such a rare beauty, without doing anything, is enough to arouse the covetousness of men and the jealousy of women.

Wushuangnv doesn't care about other people's attention, because she is not afraid of anyone at all, she firmly believes that what flows in her body is her father's blood, and Fu Meng is a fearless person. After a while, she found the target store, and under the warm hospitality of the store clerk, she bought a batch of dry food and daily necessities, filling her entire luggage. Before leaving, the elderly shopkeeper couldn't help but said, "Girl, are you going on the road alone?" Wushuang girl smiled and nodded, "Is there a problem?" The store clerk hurriedly said: "No problem." Then he hesitated to speak, but couldn't help but said worriedly: "Oh! Those toubobs of Maziguang are trying to trick the girl, girl..."

Wu Shuang saw that he glanced at the street first before saying this, she understood, but she didn't follow his gaze, lest the hooligan who was peeping at her on the street knew that he was reminding herself that he was causing trouble to this kind-hearted old man Upper body, cut him off and said: "Don't worry! I know how to deal with it." After finishing speaking, he picked up his heavy luggage, walked to the horse outside the door, hung the luggage on the side of the horse, tied it firmly, but didn't look at it, and the few gathered on the opposite side commented on her, and at a glance, he knew that she was not a kind person Young man.

Wushuang put her arms around Hei'er's horse's neck first, said something affectionate to her beloved horse, and led the horse for a stroll towards the town's east exit with a leisurely look. Someone was chasing from behind, and Wushuang could tell that there were seven people in the other party without looking. Suddenly a man with a pockmarked face jumped in front of her, opened his hands, blocked the way, and said with a playful smile: "Miss, do you want to invest in the shop, why don't you come to my house, it will save money and be convenient." The other six gangsters dispersed and surrounded her in the middle. One of them salivated and smiled and said, "Brother Guang is the most considerate of beauties, and he promises to take good care of you. If he doesn't succeed, there are us!"

All the men booed in unison, shouting and screaming. Everyone in the town stayed far away, and no one dared to intervene, which shows how domineering these people usually are. Wushuang girl didn't get angry at all, but she restrained her smile and said coldly: "Go away!" Ma Ziguang pretended to be surprised, pointed at the tip of his nose and said, "What did you say, beauty? I'm deaf, so say it louder." The other person said in a strange tone: "Brother Guang, can't you hear what I'm saying? You heard clearly! The slave family told you to get out of bed and let your other brothers go to bed. Ha!"

All the Han roared with laughter, laughing so that everyone's belly was hilarious, and they leaned forward and back together. Wu Shuang snorted coldly, and then led the horse straight towards Ma Ziguang who was blocking the way. Ma Ziguang's eyes flashed fiercely, and he reached out to snatch the rein she was holding. Wu Shuangnv uttered "Courting death" and kicked out like lightning.Before Ma Ziguang knew what happened, there was a heart-piercing pain from his crotch, and his entire body weighing a hundred catties was kicked off the ground and thrown back, flying half a foot away, falling on all fours. Everyone couldn't believe their eyes, that a weak girl had such fierce legs.

The thing happened beyond anyone's expectation. Before all the men figured out what happened, the Wushuang girl rolled over on the spot and came to the front of the two men behind her. When they opened the door, the two howled miserably, with blood oozing from their mouths and noses, they fell back and sat down on the ground. This group of ruffians are all gangsters, they punch and knive every day, otherwise they can't run rampant in the village, seeing this aroused their ruthlessness, and the remaining four rushed towards Wu Shuangnv like wolves and tigers from both sides. Wushuang girl finally had a smile on her face, she pulled it up quickly, light like a civet cat, without any effort, just somersaulted, calmly landed on the horse's back, and wiped her waist again, there were already more strips on her hand. A black soft whip that is ten and a half feet long.

The four men rushed to nothing, unable to find the shadow of the Wushuang girl, the shadow of the whip came over their heads, amidst the screams, in the blink of an eye, everyone received at least one whip, and it was the most vulnerable face , making them miserable, and they no longer have the strength to fight back. The townspeople who were on the sidelines were dumbfounded and felt even more delighted.No one would have imagined that such a charming, seemingly delicate little girl would be so ruthless and skilled, and her every move would be as pleasing to the eye as a performance. Wushuang Nu let out a low whistle, and the horse riding under her seat received the order and immediately rushed forward.

At this time, Ma Ziguang was sitting up, Wushuangnv rode past him. Ma Ziguang yelled in pain and anger, halfway through the yelling, suddenly his neck tightened, and he couldn't go on yelling anymore, it turned out that he was already tightly bound by the soft whip, and an irresistible force pulled him back again, just Then get dragged and wiped away. Wushuang female Yurong was calm, as if she didn't know that she was dragging someone. When Ma Ziguang was about to die, she used a trick, retracted the soft whip, and galloped to the town gate, leaving Ma Ziguang curled up on the ground, moaning with her throat in her hands. , only half of life left.

Qiu Jiushi and Ruan Xiuzhen walked side by side on the path in the garden, the latter suddenly stopped and sighed. Master Qiu Jiu said with sympathy: "Young Master, if you have the top two or three successful husbands, you don't have to die so unworthy." Ruan Xiuzhen said: "I'm not sorry for him. Frankly speaking, Longtou pampers you too much. It's not a day's cold to freeze three feet. You have always been tyrannical. If he wasn't Huangfu Tianxiong's son, he would have died a long time ago." back." The two have cooperated for a long time, appreciate each other, and have an excellent relationship, so they don't have any scruples when talking in private.

Qiu Jiushi frowned and said, "But why do you look worried?" Ruan Xiuzhen lowered his voice and said, "What I'm worried about is the future of our gang. In the past few years, our power has reached its peak, and it is like the sky. The so-called prosperity must decline, and things must reverse. The sudden death of the young master caused the heaviest blow to the leader. You From his expression just now, you can tell how much this incident has affected him. Have you followed him for so long, have you seen him cry?" Qiu Jiushi said: "This is human nature, no one can avoid it. After all, Longtou is a strong person. I believe he will recover soon and everything will return to normal. Alas! I hope that among the many beautiful concubines of Longtou, someone can Give him a son." Ruan Xiuzhen said: "So what if the catastrophe happened before that? The imperial court is in a weak position due to successive years of wars, but we have taken advantage of the situation in recent years and continued to grow. I don't believe that it will cause the imperial court's taboo. Ji Nieti came today Seeing the big dragon head is definitely not a good sign." Qiu Jiushi nodded and said: "Leader should talk to Ji Nieti in the meeting hall now, why Ji Nieti came, we will soon find out. The leader trusts you the most, only what you say can be heard by him, and now it is the leader When I need you most." Ruan Xiuzhen still looked preoccupied. Qiu Jiushi was surprised and said: "Is the situation really so serious? But I didn't notice it at all. According to my opinion, as long as the five escaped robbers are captured alive and the leader vents his hatred, everything will recover." He snorted again and said, "If Eunuch Feng wants to get rid of us, he could barely do it five years ago, but now he has missed the opportunity. If you mess with us, we will simply openly rebel and see who can do anything." Ruan Xiuzhen looked up at the sunset sky, and said slowly: "After the son died unexpectedly, I helped the three hexagrams." Qiu Jiushi asked in amazement: "Isn't one hexagram enough to predict good and bad luck? Why are there three hexagrams in succession?" Ruan Xiuzhen smiled wryly and said: "I don't know where to start. The first hexagram I started was actually three lines moving together. The inspiration is almost moving, so the most important thing is to move lines in divination hexagrams, but there are too many lines moving. It makes the fortune-tellers at a loss. What makes me even more disturbed is that the three branches are all ghost lines. The three and three are endless, and the six and six are endless. My God!" Qiu Jiushi frowned and said, "I don't understand." Ruan Xiuzhen said: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. To put it simply, I can't judge the good or bad of things based on this hexagram. A day later, I started another hexagram, and it turned out that the three lines moved together, and it was the same as the previous hexagram. , what moves are all ghosts.” Qiu Jiushi felt chills in his heart.Although he didn't understand the meaning of the hexagram, judging from Ruan Xiuzhen's expression of lingering fear, the strangeness of the hexagram was definitely not a good thing. Ruan Xiuzhen continued: "I created the third hexagram seven days later. Sigh!" Qiu Jiushi was surprised: "Could it be that the situation hasn't changed?" Ruan Xiuzhen said dejectedly: "The three lines are still moving together, all are ghost lines. Don't ask me what this means, because I don't know. I don't dare to make a fourth hexagram again." Qiu Jiushi fell silent. Ruan Xiuzhen said: "It's up to people to plan things, but it's up to God to make things happen. There are many things that we don't have the turn to think about, so we can only do our best. Right?" Qiu Jiushi was speechless. I really don't want to die. This sentence kept repeating in Wuzi's humility. He has been a person with a strong fighting spirit since he was a child, and no setbacks can weaken his will to fight for survival.He was born in a conservative and closed family, from the side room of the fifth house.Since he was sensible, he didn't like "family". His father was tyrannical and domineering, his mother was weak and sick, and he had many brothers and sisters.When his mother fell out of favor and was forced to death by the aunt, the second mother, and the third mother, he, who was only twelve years old, ran away from home and never looked back. He had been a beggar, apprenticed in various trades, and held countless jobs.No matter what he learns, he can master it as soon as he learns it, even surpassing the master who taught him.In terms of learning talent, he has never met anyone comparable to him, but he never wants to stay in a certain industry for more than half a year, because he finds that he will soon get bored.He vaguely felt that he was looking for something, but he didn't know what it was. In terms of kung fu, he has followed more than ten masters, but it only takes a few months, and even the masters are willing to bow down, which makes him the most unpopular apprentice. By the time he was eighteen, he had already learned all kinds of martial arts, and he was proficient in all eighteen martial arts.He has a pair of dexterous hands and supernatural ears, but what makes him most proud is his eyesight.Anyone, or the layout and structure of the house, even the most delicate lock, he can accurately grasp the characteristics at a glance. He also developed a gambling addiction.He loves the excitement of winning or losing at the gambling table, which also makes him impoverished and heavily in debt.Fortunately, he finally figured out a way. He spent five years preparing, studying the art of theft, making various tools, and exercising his skills.When he first stole the five-color golden horse, the famous treasure of Jin Heng, the richest man in Yingtian Mansion, at the age of twenty-three, he knew that his destiny had been reversed.Although he became a thief, he was not an ordinary thief, but a super thief with his own style. Once the money is in his hands, he'll go out of his way to drink, drink, and have fun until he runs out of money and has to go on another treasure hunt.After extreme stimulation comes extreme relaxation and indulgence.But is he satisfied?He couldn't figure it out, deep down he knew he was after something.Perhaps a treasure, or a woman.He doesn't know, he only knows that what he desires in his heart is most likely what he will never get. Or can only be found in dreams.The stunning woman driving the ancient chariot can't help appearing in my heart, it is still so clear. The sun did not enter the hills to the west. After eating the excavated sealwort, Wu Zixu's mental and physical strength recovered, and he was full of never-say-die fighting spirit again. At this moment, he saw a little light in the distance, and when he tried to see it clearly, it disappeared. Thinking that there might be people living there, Wu Zixu felt overjoyed immediately, jumped up quickly, and walked towards the direction where the light appeared.At this time, there was only one thought in his mind, which was to leave this ghostly wilderness as soon as possible. Ji Nieti is tall and thin, about forty years old, and always gives people the impression of being calm and composed.Unlike others, his unhurried demeanor is not a pose, but seems to be an innate trait, not acquired through training.His calmness, coupled with his expressionless eyes, can create an inexplicable sense of oppression to anyone who comes into contact with him.You never know what is going on in his heart, whether he is plotting against you secretly.If he is just an ordinary person, what he likes to think is his own business, but unfortunately, Jneti is the most powerful person in the world except Eunuch Feng, no one dares to ignore what he thinks.Even with Huangfu Tianxiong's status, he still dare not neglect him, for fear of causing disaster. Huangfu Tianxiong completely recovered his usual demeanor, calm and calm, he couldn't see the blow caused by his son's death at all, as if nothing had happened.He welcomed Ji Nieti into the meeting hall at the gate, sat down with the guests and hosts, and the maid brought tea and left. Huangfu Tianxiong smiled and said, "It's been so many years since we met! Fortunately, Mr. Ji is still as handsome as ever, and still It looks younger than the last time we met." There was a faint smile on the corner of Ji Nieti's mouth, but in Huangfu Tianxiong's eyes, he seemed to be wearing a mask forever to hide his true self.Huangfu Tianxiong thought he was good at judging people, but he knew that he couldn't see through this person, nor could he see through the depth of his martial arts.According to rumors, Jineti's unique dragon head knife may be the fastest knife in the world, and no one has ever been able to get back in his ten moves. Ji Nieti laughed dumbly and said: "Da Longtou is joking, we haven't met for nine years, even if I'm not old, my mood is much older." After speaking, he raised the hot tea in his hand and took a sip. Huangfu Tianxiong watched him put the teacup on the table, and said happily: "Master Ji came all the way from the capital this time, I don't know if there is anything that I, Huangfu Tianxiong, can use, I, Huangfu Tianxiong, will do my best, I hope It won't disappoint Master Ji like last time." Ji Nieti shook his head and said: "How can we blame Da Longtou for what happened back then, it's just because our opponent was too powerful, and Dalongtou's help, father-in-law and I have always remembered it in our hearts, and are very grateful." Then he frowned and said: "The Gui Gang has been mobilizing for more than ten days, and it seems to be looking for someone. I don't know what happened? If there is anything our factory guard can help, the leader just speak up." Huangfu Tianxiong's heart tensed at first, and then he felt a sense of awe. He also knew that it was impossible to hide this matter from J Nieti, who was all over the world, and he also knew that the fire could not be covered with paper. I had no choice but to avoid the seriousness and said lightly: "Family ugliness should not be spread, it's just a family matter! Thank you Mr. Ji for your concern. I still have the ability to deal with this matter. Let's talk about Mr. Ji's business!" Ji Nieti didn't ask any more questions, and took out a bamboo tube about two feet long from his sleeve, and handed it to Huangfu Tianxiong with both hands respectfully. Huangfu Tianxiong took the tube with both hands, pulled out the stopper under Ji Nieti's instructions, took out the scroll inside, opened it, and it turned out to be a portrait of a monk.Asked: "Who is this monk, very familiar, do I know him?" Jneti replied without any expression change: "Of course Da Longtou knows him, he is Xue Tinghao, one of the two criminals I asked Da Longtou to track down nine years ago." What Huangfu Tianxiong was thinking about was Ji Nieti. Could this head of the factory guard be a person without emotions, or he must completely suppress his emotions, otherwise how could he become a tool for Feng Gonggong to kill?He looked at the portrait and nodded, "It turned out to be him. No wonder he looks so familiar. Thanks to him, he pretended to be a monk so that we couldn't find him. But if I were him, I would flee overseas or beyond the Great Wall, and I would never stay behind." In the Central Plains. This brat is still lacking in morality." Jnetti said indifferently: "He didn't pretend to be a monk, but he really escaped into Buddhism. He worked harder than any monk, studied Buddhism, and practiced the most difficult dry Zen. It is precisely because he became Therefore, no one can recognize him as Xue Tinghao, even if he is face to face, he will miss it, because even his temperament has changed." Huangfu Tianxiong stared at Xue Tinghao on the scroll, puzzled and said: "But in terms of this portrait, if you look at it horizontally and vertically, it is still Xue Tinghao pretending to be a monk. Anyone who is interested will definitely recognize him." Ji Nie said: "This portrait is a portrait of him ten years ago, changed into a monk's attire, and now he has a completely different look. Let me make it clear, he is no longer Xue Tinghao before, but He is an eminent monk with the incarnation of Dharma name Color Deep. Due to the change in eating habits, his appearance has also become different from before, and his appearance has lost a lot." Huangfu Tianxiong said absent-mindedly: "It's not a problem to become fatter or thinner. As long as he still looks a bit like before and his height remains the same, we will definitely not miss it." He couldn't help asking again: "How did you find out about him?" In fact, Huangfu Tianxiong was not in the mood to meddle in other people's affairs at all, because the other party was Ji Nieti, so he had to pretend to be eager to help.However, Ji Nieti was vague, which made him, an old Jianghu, habitually ask questions. Ji Nieti's eyes flashed a strange look that Huangfu Tianxiong couldn't understand, and said in a deep voice: "Big leader, please forgive me for trying to keep a secret here, because the matter is too bizarre, and I still don't know what happened. One thing." Huangfu Tianxiong waved his hands to express that he didn't mind, and said, "How can Master Ji want me to help?" Ji Nieti's eyes flashed, and he said solemnly: "Da Longtou has always had a good relationship with Buddhism. If Dalongtou greets all Buddhist temples, big and small, and asks them not to cover up this person, it will be effective. If he is successfully caught in the future People, I, Jineti, will definitely be rewarded." Huangfu Tianxiong understood that the factory guards had the power to overwhelm the world, but if they gave instructions directly to the Buddhist sect, the Buddhist sect would of course know that it would not be a good thing, so they obeyed and violated, and even warned Xue Tinghao.And he himself has always spared no effort in building and repairing temples. In the eyes of Buddhists, he is a friend rather than an enemy. As long as he finds a grand excuse, he will find Xue Tinghao. From this, it can be seen that Ji Nieti has lost confidence in finding Xue Tinghao, and suspects that he has hidden in some barren mountain and wild temple, so he cannot be found everywhere.Buddhist disciples are all over the world, and it is said that the emperor is also a Buddhist disciple. No matter how domineering the factory guard, he still dare not go to the temple to search for people. He understands the embarrassment Ji Nie raised when he has to verify the integrity of all the monks in the Buddhist temple. If he had a choice, he would never intervene in this matter. If he upset the Buddhist gate, it would be detrimental to him. Ji Nie said: "As long as we know where he is, everything will be handled by us, and we will ensure that the hands and feet are clean and will not alarm the Buddhist sect, and your gang can stay out of it." Huangfu Tianxiong pretended to be willing to obey, and said: "Master Ji has an order, how dare you not obey? I guarantee that Master Ji will handle this matter properly."
