Chapter 51 The fifty-first chapter of strange peaks

The fog has lightened. Jing Wuming still stood there motionless, his dead gray eyes were staring blankly at a drop of dew dripping from the brim of his hat. He didn't seem to see Shangguan Jinhong walking out of the woods alone. Shangguan Jinhong didn't even glance at him, walked past him in a leisurely manner, and said indifferently: "It's foggy today, it must be good weather." Jing Wuming was silent for a while, then slowly said: "It must be good weather if there is fog today." He finally turned around and followed behind Shangguan Jin Hong in a leisurely manner. The two of them, one in front of the other, finally disappeared into the faint morning mist.

This street is very busy, almost like the Tianqiao in Beiping, there are all kinds of things to buy and sell. Although it is not yet noon, there are all kinds of stalls on both sides of the street, selling all kinds of snacks , playing all kinds of tricks, waiting for all kinds of customers. Arriving here, Lingling's eyes are dazzled, she has never been so happy. She was still a child after all. Li Xunhuan would bring her here for shopping, she really didn't expect it. "It turns out that he is also a little childish." Seeing that Li Xunhuan was still holding candied haws, Lingling couldn't help laughing.

I just bought candied haws. I bought several bunches. The bright red hawthorns were poured with crystal sugar, which looked like strings of shining gems. There is no girl who does not love gemstones. Lingling clamored and bought all the strings she had just made, but it was a pity that she only had two hands and couldn't hold so many. When girls buy things, they will only dislike too little, never too much. Li Xunhuan could only hold it for her. In fact, he himself bought candied haws, and it was a long, long time ago. At that time, he didn't know what sorrow and trouble were. What now?

Now he has no time to worry, he has been staring at one person for a long time. This man was walking in front of him, wearing a torn sack, dragging a pair of rotten straw sandals under his feet, and an old felt hat on his head. He never raised his head, as if he was hiding someone. Although he walked with a stooped back and even his neck retracted, his shoulders were very broad. If he straightened his waist, he must be a very burly man. In any case, this man did not seem to be anything special, at most he was just a frustrated quack, maybe a beggar. But as soon as Li Xunhuan saw him, he set his eyes on him.

Wherever he went, Li Xun Huan would stare at him, that's why he came to this street. Strangely, Li Xunhuan was not the only one staring at him. Li Xun Huan originally wanted to rush over to have a look at his face, but suddenly found that there was someone behind him secretly following him. This man was very thin, tall, and his steps were very light. Although he was wearing a very ordinary set of coarse clothes, his eyes flashed, and his energy was revealed. Li Xun Huan could tell at a glance that he was definitely not an ordinary person. He didn't pay attention to Li Xun Huan, because he was all focused on the beggar in front, the beggar walked faster, he walked faster, the beggar stopped, and he immediately stopped, pretending to be patting clothes , Lifting the shoes, but the eyes never relax.

He seemed to be a master of stalking. Why does such a person stare at a poor beggar? Li Xun Huan held his breath, as if he wanted to find out. What is he for? What does he have to do with the beggar in front? But the beggar didn't seem to know that there was someone following him behind him, he just bent over, hunched his back, and walked slowly in front, never turning his head. If someone gave him money on the road, he would accept it, and if no one gave him money, he would not ask for it. Ling Ling's eyes kept rolling, she suddenly grabbed Li Xun Huan's clothes and whispered, "Are we looking at that beggar?"

This little girl is really a ghost. Li Xun Huan could only nod his head, and said softly, "So you must speak in a low voice." Lingling blinked and said, "Who is he? Why are you following him?" Li Xun Huan said, "You don't understand." Lingling said: "I'm asking because I don't understand. If you don't tell me, I'm going to ask loudly." Li Xun Huan sighed, and smiled wryly, "Because he looks like a friend I haven't seen for many years." Lingling became even more strange, and said, "Your friend? Could it be that he is a member of the Beggar Gang?"

Li Xun Huan said: "No." Lingling said: "Then who is he?" Li Xun Huan lowered his face and said, "You won't know even if I tell his name." Lingling pursed her lips and remained silent for a while, but she couldn't help but said, "There is someone staring at him in front of us, did you see that?" Li Xun Huan smiled and said, "You have a good eye." Lingling also laughed, and said again: "Who is that person? Also a friend of your friend?" Li Xun Huan said: "No." Lingling's eyeballs were rolling again, and she said, "Isn't it his friend? Could it be his enemy?"

Li Xun Huan said: "Maybe..." Lingling said: "Then why didn't you tell him?" Li Xun Huan sighed and said, "My friend has a strange temper and never wants others to help him." Lingling said: "But he..." Halfway through the sentence, her mouth finally closed. Because at this time she was already busy looking with her eyes, her eyes were already staring straight. This street is very long, they walked for a long time, only half way. The beggar was walking to a stall selling wontons. Not far from the wonton stand, a man was carrying a load and selling wine, and several people were squatting in front of the load to drink, and one of them was a blind fortune-teller whose face seemed a little blue.

Under the eaves across the street, stood a big man in Tsing Yi. A seller of fried stinky tofu was carrying a load and walked towards the front of the road. There was also a very tall woman who had been standing with her head bowed in front of the pollen stall buying needles and thread. When she looked up at this moment, she realized that she was blind in one eye. The beggar just came here... The wine seller suddenly put down his burden. The blind man who was drinking also immediately put down his bowl. The big man in Tsing Yi jumped out of the roof in one step. When the one-eyed woman turned around, she almost knocked over the pollen stand.

Coupled with the thin Changjianghu guest who had been staring at the back, they suddenly split into four sides and surrounded the beggar. The burden of selling stinky tofu just blocked the path of the beggar! Although there were more than these few people on the street, these few people were undoubtedly eye-catching. Even Lingling could tell something was wrong, and Li Xunhuan couldn't help but change his face. He had long thought that this beggar looked like Tie Chuanjia, and now he had no doubts. He dared not act rashly. Because he knew that these people and Tie Chuanjia had an unresolvable deep hatred, this attack must have been planned extremely carefully, and Tie Chuanjia would never be allowed to escape their grasp again. If he knew that someone had rescued him, maybe he would Regardless of everything, put him to death first. Li Xunhuan would rather die by himself than let Tie Chuanjia suffer any harm. He only owed love to a few people in his life, and Tie Chuanjia was one of them. He must not lose his friend Tie Chuanjia. At this moment, several people had squeezed the beggar in the middle. There was a flash of cold light, and three sharp knives had pressed against his chest and back. Only then did the people around realize what was going on, and immediately dispersed. No one wants to be involved in this kind of vendetta. The blind man selling divination said coldly: "Follow us slowly, don't say a word, do you understand?" The big man in Tsing Yi gritted his teeth and said sharply: "You are obedient and obedient, and you can live a little longer. If you dare to make up your mind, we will kill you immediately." The beggar's reaction seemed extremely slow, and he only nodded his head until now. The one-eyed woman pushed hard on his shoulder, gritted her teeth and said, "Hurry up, what are you waiting for?" It's fine if she doesn't push, but with this push, several people were all stunned. The broken felt hat on the beggar's head had been pushed down, revealing his face. Huang's miserable face looked like he was just recovering from a serious illness, but there was a red, rosy nose in the middle, and he was grinning wide, looking at these people with a smirk. This is not Tie Chuanjia, he looks like an idiot. Li Xun Huan could hardly help laughing. The one-eyed woman was so angry that her whole body was trembling, she said sharply: "Old Wu, what, what is going on?" The slender Jianghu guest's face turned green, as if he had seen a ghost, and said in a trembling voice: "It's obviously Tie Chuanjia, I have never let him go, how...how could it change...change?" The big man in Tsing Yi stomped his feet fiercely, slapped the beggar's face with his backhand, and shouted, "Who are you? Who are you?" The beggar covered his face with his hands, still smirking, and said, "I am me, and you are you, why did you hit me?" The wine seller said: "Maybe this guy is Tie Chuanjia disguised, let's peel off a layer of skin on his face first." The blind man selling divination suddenly said coldly: "No need, this man is definitely not Tie Chuanjia." Until now, only his face remained cold and unmoved. The big man in Tsing Yi said: "Second Brother, can you hear his voice?" The blind man said coldly: "Tie Chuanjia would rather die than be slapped by you." With a stern face, he slowly continued: "Fifth, think about it again, what's going on?" The slender Jianghu guest's face was green and pale, and said: "This person must have colluded with Tie Chuanjia, deliberately dropped the package, and led us here, so that the surnamed Tie could take the opportunity to escape." The one-eyed woman said angrily: "What are you doing? Why did you let them lose their bags?" The quack lowered his head and said, "Maybe...when he goes to the toilet, I can't..." The big man in green roared angrily: "It turns out that you and that surnamed Tie belong to the same party. I will kill you." He grabbed a pole and hit the beggar on the head. At this point, Li Xun Huan had no choice but to take action. Regardless of whether this beggar is really demented or not, or whether he is a friend of Tie Chuanjia, he has finally helped Tie Chuanjia, and Li Xunhuan can't just watch him being beaten to death. What's more, if you want to know the news about Tie Chuanjia, you have to ask this person. Li Xun Huan's body has slid out. But as soon as he slid out with one step, he suddenly retracted. This movement and stillness really changed like electricity, and no one else noticed it at all. He no longer needs to make a move. Hearing the sound of "Ge", the shoulder pole that the big man in Tsing Yi knocked down suddenly broke into two pieces. No one could see clearly what broke the pole, everyone couldn't help but change their faces, and couldn't help but step back half a step, and shouted: "Who dares to make trouble?" The person under the eaves said lightly: "It's me." Everyone followed the prestige and looked over, only to find that the person speaking was a tall and tall man in white, with his hands behind his back, looking up at a row of birdcages hanging under the eaves. Birds chirping in cages. The man in white seemed to think that birds were much more interesting than humans, and he didn't even glance at these vengeful quacks from the corner of his eyes. There are wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, but with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a face as white as jade, from a distance he is still a good young man in troubled times, no one can guess his age. The big man in Tsing Yi shouted: "You are the one who broke my shoulder pole?" The man in white didn't even say a word this time. The big man in green and the one-eyed woman shouted angrily, as if they wanted to rush out. Suddenly, the blind man selling divination shouted softly, "Stop!" He had already picked up the ingot of silver from the ground, and said coldly: "Although this young master broke your shoulder pole, this ingot of silver is more than enough to buy a hundred shoulder poles. You don't thank him, but dare to be cruel to him present?" The big man in green looked at the half pole in his hand, and then at the silver ingot in the blind man's hand, as if he couldn't believe that this gentle man in white could break his pole with a small piece of silver. The man in white suddenly turned his head up and laughed loudly, and said loudly: "Okay, I didn't expect that your blind man's eyes are more useful than other people's. This ingot of silver belongs to you." The blind man who sold divination didn't change his expression, and said coldly: "Although the old man is blind in his eyes, he is not blind in his heart. He never dares to do anything ignorant of his heart." He weighed the silver in his hand, and said slowly: "The shoulder pole only costs one coin, but this ingot weighs a full ten taels. Even if you want to pay for our shoulder pole, you won't need so much." As he spoke, he twisted the silver in his hand into a silver stick, bent his left hand, and took off a small piece, then said coldly: "This money is old enough to be accepted, and the excess should be returned to the original owner." !" But seeing a flash of silver light, with a wave of his hand, the three-foot-long silver stick stabbed towards the man in white with the sound of the wind, and it was a wonderful move in Wudang's "Liangyi Sword Art". But seeing the silver light flickering, he pierced five or six big acupuncture points on the chest of the man in white in one move. When the silver stick reached his eyes, the man in white suddenly stretched out his middle and index fingers to pinch the head of the stick, his two fingers were like fine steel sharp splitters, he cut off a section of the silver stick with a casual cut. The man in white smiled lightly and said, "Your swordsmanship is not weak, but it's a pity that it's too slow." He said a word, cut his fingers, and after finishing the sentence, he cut a three-foot-long silver stick into sixteen and seventeen sections, and it fell all over the ground with "jingling". Lingling watched from a distance, and couldn't help gasping at this moment, and said quietly: "Aren't this man's hands made of meat?" When others looked at the small piece of silver stick left in the blind man's hand, everyone's faces were ashen, how could they say a word? The man in white put his hands behind his back again, and said coldly: "I have given away the silver, it is yours, why don't you pick it up?" The blind divination seller's face turned greener and frightening, he suddenly bent down, picked up the silver pieces on the ground, turned his head and walked away without saying a word. The big man in Tsing Yi and the one-eyed women followed behind him with their heads down. Lingling smiled softly: "They come with dignity and leave easily, these people are at least worthy of being heroes who know current affairs." Li Xun Huan pondered and said suddenly: "Have you seen the snack shop over there that sells steamed stuffed buns?" Lingling smiled and said, "Not only have I seen it a long time ago, but I have also wanted to try it for a long time." Li Xun Huan said: "Alright, you wait for me there." Lingling was stunned, and said, "Are you going to chase that beggar?" The beggar had already got up and was walking forward with a smile on his face. He neither went to thank the man in white nor looked at others. What happened just now seems to have nothing to do with him. Li Xun Huan nodded, "I have something to ask him." Lingling's eye circles were a little red, she lowered her head and said, "Can't I go with you?" Li Xun Huan said: "I can't!" Lingling almost burst into tears and said, "I know, you want to get rid of me again." Li Xun Huan sighed, and said softly, "I also want to eat dumplings, why didn't I come back?" Ling Ling bit her lip and said: "Okay, I will trust you, if you lie to me, I will wait for you there for the rest of my life." The beggar was not walking fast. Li Xun Huan was not in a hurry to catch up with him, there were too many people on this street. It was inconvenient to talk when there were too many people, not to mention, he noticed that the man in white was staring at him all the time, as if he suddenly felt that he was still much more interesting than a bird after all. Li Xun Huan also wanted to take a closer look at this white-clothed man, just now he showed his kung fu of "cutting silver sticks with his fingers", which really aroused Li Xun Huan's interest. There are not many masters like him in the martial arts world. In fact, Li Xunhuan couldn't think of anyone in the world with his finger skills—Lingling's description is not too much! "This man's fingers don't look like they're made of meat." As long as people who practice martial arts meet such a master with unique skills, they either want to compete with him or make friends with him. If it were any other day, Li Xun Huan would be no exception. Now he is not in this mood. He has been looking for Tie Chuanjia for a long time, but he still has no news. He must not miss this opportunity. The man in white was already walking towards him, as if trying to block his way. Fortunately, the crowd that had dispersed just now gathered together again, vying to catch a glimpse of the man in white. Li Xun Huan took advantage of this opportunity to squeeze out of the crowd. When I looked up again, the beggar had already reached the end of the street and turned left. The street on the left has much fewer people and is not too long. Li Xun Huan hurried over, but the beggar was gone. He walked all the way to the end of this street, and then turned another street, but he still couldn't see the beggar. How could he suddenly disappear? Li Xun Huan held his breath and walked slowly along the corner of the wall. There are people's back doors on both sides of this street. In a door opening in front, there seems to be a man squatting, holding something in his hand, and rubbing his body. Li Xun Huan hadn't seen his people yet, but he had already seen the broken felt hat. The beggar turned out to be hiding here. what is he doing Li Xunhuan didn't want to disturb him, so he walked over slowly. The beggar was still taken aback, and quickly hid the things in his hands behind his back. It's just that Li Xun Huan's eyes are much quicker than his hands, and he has already seen that what he is holding is a small piece of silver, obviously it was cut out by the man in white just now, and he has polished it to a bright spot. Li Xun Huan smiled and said, "What's your name, friend?" The beggar stared at him and said, "I am not your friend, and you are not my friend either. I don't know you, and you don't know me either." Li Xun Huan still smiled and said, "I want to ask you about someone, you must know that person."
