Chapter 4 Eleven to fifteen
Back home, Chen Xiqiao quietly hid in Zihe's room.It seemed that a hard shell had been removed from his body, and he became agile again, as if he had become the big boy three years ago again.
Chen Xiqiao didn't speak, but buried his head wearily on Zihe's chest, hoping to stay close to Zihe's side all the time.
Zi He didn't speak either, she leaned quietly on the bed, her soft and small hands ran gently through the ends of Chen Xiqiao's hair, as if a mother was comforting her child.
There was a knock on the door, and there was a deliberate coughing sound.
"Who?" Chen Xiqiao reluctantly sat up from the bed, and Zi He also picked up the half-embroidered embroidery around her, and embroidered it stitch by stitch.
"Master, it's me." The voice of the book boy Sansi came from outside the door.
"What's the matter?" "The young mistress has come to see you at the house." The young mistress is none other than Miss Nine of the Sima family, Sima Wuyan.The accident three years ago postponed the planned marriage indefinitely.
But Sima Wuyan persevered, and wanted to be the young mistress of the Chen family anyway, and even asked Mrs. Sima to come forward to urge her to get married several times.
Although Chen Xiqiao doesn't dislike this young Sima, and has always been able to get along with her, he has had some vague feelings for her more than once in his heart, and he just heard that Chen Liu wanted to make her his wife I was excited for a while.However, when this matter was really about to become a reality, for some reason, he retreated a bit.And what's more terrible, is that there is already a Zihe beside him.
Therefore, he delayed the marriage for three full years on the grounds that he could not talk about marriage without revenge for his father.
"You'd better go see Miss Sima quickly, she is the one chosen by the master for you. Besides, she is really good to you." Zi He looked extremely calm, as if this matter had nothing to do with her, she lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes , It's always that happy and worry-free look.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Chen Xiqiao cast a thoughtful glance at Zi He.Although he felt a little guilty, he still left with Sansi.
Zi He didn't even raise her head, she was doing her embroidery wholeheartedly.The needle deftly passed through the slippery silk cloth, Zi He's hand trembled for some reason, the needle pricked her finger, the blood stained the silk cloth, but she felt no pain.Her gaze was fixed, and her heart actually flew out of the room with Chen Xiqiao.
Sima Wuyan was waiting for Chen Xiqiao.
In the morning, before Chen Xiqiao finished the case of Wang Jinlou, Miss Jiu of the Sima family got the news.She came here on purpose to congratulate her.
Before coming, she put on her makeup in front of the mirror for half an hour.She painted her eyebrows, made a complicated cloud bun, and lightly applied a layer of water-colored rouge specially made by Zhibaozhai on her lips.Then put on a newly made embroidered dress for yourself.
Sima Wuyan hoped that every time Chen Xiqiao saw him, his eyes would light up.
Chen Xiqiao's eyes really lit up.
No one would be indifferent when seeing Sima Wuyan.Not only because she is the most self-dressing woman in the world, but also because she is also very beautiful.
There are many kinds of women's beauty, such as delicate beauty, fierce beauty, bright beauty, melancholy beauty, graceful beauty, tender beauty, but Sima Wuyan's beauty is a kind of deep beauty .She is so beautiful that she is not arrogant at all. Although the first glance at her can make people fall in love with her, but if you look at her for the second time, you will find that she is breathtakingly beautiful. Go through fire and water.Sima Wuyan is good-looking, more durable, and the more you look at it, the more delicious it is.
Chen Xiqiao couldn't help being tempted by such a woman, so from the moment she entered the front hall, his eyes never left Sima Wuyan.
Seeing his future husband admiring him like this, Sima Wuyan's heart was filled with pride, and the expression on his face became more charming because of his confidence.
"Brother Chen." She called Chen Xiqiao softly.
From the day she can remember, she has called Chen Xiqiao that way.At that time, she was still an ugly monster that everyone hated, she was dark and thin, the eyelids of her eyes were puffy and swollen as if she couldn't wake up all the time, and her nose was lying softly on her face as if there was no nose bridge, so Among her playmates, she was always the object of ridicule and bullying.Only this elder brother of the Chen family has never disliked her, and has always been gentle to her. Every time she shed tears because of being ridiculed, this elder brother of the Chen family always came to wipe away her tears and teased her until she became disfigured. laugh.Therefore, from then on, she secretly made a wish in her heart that in the future, this Chen family brother would definitely not marry.
What's more, this brother of the Chen family is not only a gentle and considerate lover, but also the only descendant of the famous Chen family.
When he was still very young, Sima Wuyan's ears were already filled with stories about the famous arrest of the Chen family.As if this is not a family, but a legend.However, the famous arresters of the Chen family have always been men, and there has never been a female famous arrester.Therefore, Sima Wuyan felt that if she could marry this elder brother of the Chen family, she would have the hope of allowing herself to join the legend and become the first famous female arrester in the history of the famous arrester Chen family.Although he was born as a daughter, Sima Wuyan never thought that he would lose to those men.
So, when Mrs. Sima told her about Mr. Chen's marriage proposal, Sima Wuyan agreed to the marriage without even thinking about it.Although the death of Mr. Chen delayed her marriage, she had already changed her name. Instead of being called Sima Wuyan, she was called Chen Wuyan instead.In this life, she was born as a member of the Chen family, and died as a ghost of the Chen family.
"Brother Chen." Seeing Chen Xiqiao staring at him and keeping silent, Sima Wuyan called him again.
"Oh..." Chen Xiqiao shook his head vigorously, "Sister, you are so beautiful, I was stunned." Not serious. "Sima Wuyan said angrily, but his heart was as sweet as honey. Although he had known for a long time that Brother Chen's honey mouth would be like this to everyone, and he had caused a lot of romantic debts because of it, but every time Hearing Chen Xiqiao's sweet words, Sima Wuyan still couldn't help but take it as a tonic. Women are women after all, even if Bingxue is as smart as Sima Wuyan, he can't be immune. Sima Wuyan just hopes that one day after passing through the door He could use his own means to let Brother Chen's sweet words be said to her all day long.
"Sister, are you feeling flustered at home again?" "You are so heartless, I came here on purpose because I heard that you had another beautiful case today. How can you say that I am flustered?" Sima Wuyan said, pouting his mouth in response.
"Why are you always so well-informed? Have you already arranged eyeliner around me?" Chen Xiqiao scratched his head, making a look of helplessness.
"I'm not so bored. If you say that again, I'll get angry." "It's nothing. Uncle Sima was famous for collecting information. He has always been partial to you, so this is your strong point. And ..." Chen Xiqiao changed the subject and showed a playful smile, "And it's only natural for a wife to collect information about her husband, don't you think so, my good sister?" Chen Xiqiao hugged her On Sima Wuyan's shoulders, with his eyes closed, he sniffed the fragrance on Sima Wuyan's cloud temples with his nose: "It smells so good, you must be using Zhibaozhai's Qianye Rose Dew." Pushing away Chen Xiqiao's hand on his shoulder, he said leisurely: "Brother Chen, although I will belong to you all my life, I still don't want to be too intimate before the official worship, so as not to be hurt by others." Chew your tongue." Chen Xiqiao frowned, and immediately put on a playful smile: "Good sister, don't worry, I will marry you. As long as I avenge our old man today, I will worship the world with you tomorrow." But, you have made me wait from sixteen to nineteen, how many more years can I wait for you?" Sima Wuyan's eyes were red.
Looking at Sima Wuyan's pitiful look, Chen Xiqiao couldn't bear it for a while, and his mood seemed to become melancholy all of a sudden. "Xie San." He spat out these two words viciously, feeling as if he had stopped breathing.
It was pitch black all around.Chen Xiqiao found himself struggling in a pool of blood.He floated up desperately, and finally poked his head out of the water.He climbed out of the bloody water and walked up the long and winding corridor of the Chen Mansion. The air was also full of blood, and he was panting desperately.
A faint call came from a distance: "Xiqiao! Xiqiao!" It sounded like Chen Liu's voice. Chen Xiqiao walked along the corridor, looking for the place where the voice came from.After turning a few turns, he came to a narrow alley separated by two high walls.He ran hard in the narrow alley.The sound is getting closer.
"Xiqiao! Xiqiao!" The voice was finally in front of him. Chen Xiqiao looked up and saw a head rolling on the ground in front of him.The head belonged to Chen Liu, and the head was calling him: "Xiqiao! Xiqiao!" Terrified, Chen Xiqiao retreated, turned around and ran wildly.Suddenly, a high wall blocked his way, and a pair of magnified ears hung on the wall: "Xiqiao! Xiqiao!" Chen Xiqiao turned around and ran wildly again, turned into a fork in the road, and suddenly his feet slipped , fell to the ground, and found that there was a pile of intestines under his feet: "Xiqiao, I hurt so much, I hurt so much." Chen Xiqiao climbed up with difficulty and ran forward again.After running for a long time, Chen Liu's call seemed to be getting farther and farther away.Chen Xiqiao stopped and adjusted his breathing.Suddenly there was a hand on his shoulder, and Chen Xiqiao saw that it was a severed hand without fingers. "Xiqiao, how are you?" It was Chen Liu's voice again.
Chen Xiqiao screamed wildly, only to realize that he had another nightmare.Cold sweat mixed with hot sweat fell from his forehead like rain.Zi He, who was lying beside him, was also awakened, and was gently wiping the sweat off his forehead with a silk handkerchief.
"Why, did you dream about Master again?" Zi He asked.
"He's calling me, he's calling me." Chen Xiqiao was trembling nervously, "He must blame me for being useless, and he hasn't avenged him yet." Zi He hugged Chen Xiqiao's head in pity into his arms, hugging him tightly.
"Okay, I'm fine now, good boy, don't think about it, go to sleep again." Zi He said.
Chen Xiqiao gasped for breath, and after a while, he finally calmed down.He stared at Zi He obsessively, then suddenly hugged her and kissed Zi He madly.
As soon as he woke up in the morning, Chen Xiqiao rushed to the garden.
Chen Xiqiao has always believed that early morning is the best time of the day to enjoy flowers.At this time, the dew condensed at night has not completely dissipated, and the sunlight is thin and tender, and it is scattered into strands and hazy in the dew.The water is the same color, and the dewdrops sway gently, which not only makes people feel like looking at flowers in the mist, but also makes the flowers have a delicate and beautiful quality. In addition, after there is no one for a night, the dirty air will dissipate. At this time, the fragrance of flowers is the real one. fragrance.
However, Chen Xiqiao has not enjoyed flowers in the early morning for three years.Because he had to practice this set of Gale Wind swordsmanship with ninety-nine and eighty-one moves before the dew cleared every day.
The scene of his father's tragic death all these years has been following him like a maggot attached to the bone, making it inevitable for him to avoid it.His life was exchanged for his father's life, so he had to avenge his father's blood.
Although 90% of his skills were abolished due to the Mengcun battle, and Xie San has not heard from Xie San for three years, but Chen Xiqiao knows that what should come will eventually come, and Xie San will not be willing to remain anonymous forever. One day, he will appear again.And this is the time when he asked Xie San to pay back the blood debt.So he had to practice the sword to the fastest before that.
The sword light flickered, and the figures danced.In the blink of an eye, all the first eighty moves of the Da Kuangfeng swordsmanship had been performed.There was only one last move left in this set of Gale Wind swordsmanship.And this move is also the most essential and most powerful sword in the Chen family's ancestral swordsmanship. The previous eighty swords are actually just an introduction, and the purpose of practicing them is to practice this last sword.
But this last sword does not have a fixed move or name, and it will take on different forms due to the different perceptions and personalities of the sword practitioners.
The last sword of Chen Xiqiao's uncle, Chen Kongfeng, is an autumn sword called "Autumn Wind and Autumn Rain, Sorrowful Sharen". Because he has to shoulder the important responsibilities of the family at a young age, his personality is both youthful and unruly. On the one hand, there is a dignified and sad side, like autumn, with a bit of bleak chill in its splendor.And Chen Xiqiao's father, Chen Liu, is persevering and introverted, thoughtful and thoughtful, and can always predict the enemy before the opportunity, so the last sword he practiced is the sword of yesterday that returns to splendor and tranquility.
At the same time, this last sword will also change with age and experience. Before practicing the sword of yesterday, Chen Liu first practiced the sword of regret. Because he failed to realize his ideal, he had to become a monk halfway, abandoning literature and pursuing martial arts. , so Chen Liu's sword has a feeling of emptiness and grief.Thirty years later, Chen Liu had completely accepted the reality, and wanted to make a career in the fast-moving business, so his last sword became a sword of ambition, thick and grand, like the endless tide of the sea .
Now Chen Xiqiao has activated his last sword.In the early morning sunlight, it seemed that both his man and his sword had evaporated in the garden. There was neither man nor sword, only the dew on the petals kept flying up out of nowhere.Countless dewdrops, like strings of precious stones, lined up and flew towards a wooden barrel in the middle of the garden, falling drop by drop.
Soon the dew was gone from all the petals, and the barrel was filled to the brim with the last tick.The man and sword that had been evaporated just now reappeared beside the barrel.
Dew Sword.This was the last sword practiced by Chen Xiqiao.However, isn't this also a reflection of his character.Even he himself doesn't know what he really wants, all his thoughts and all the things he has to do are actually like dew, just lightly attached to the surface, and may disappear at any time.
There was an old man coughing from behind, and Chen Xiqiao knew it must be the housekeeper Zhang Hengzhou.
"Master." Zhang Hengzhou finally walked up to Chen Xiqiao, and called him softly, with a serious look on his face.
"Uncle Zhang, what's the matter?" "Xie San finally appeared." "What?" Chen Xiqiao's heart tightened suddenly.
"Lingnan Prefecture Pegasus Express, there was a serial murder case three days ago, and it was Xie San who committed the crime." "So, his martial arts has finally recovered?" Chen Xiqiao asked.
"Not only has it recovered, but according to the surviving policeman, it seems to be even taller than before." "What do you mean?" "It means that if you go to him now, you don't even have a 10% chance .”
"So...?" Chen Xiqiao waited for Zhang Hengzhou to give him further advice.
"So you have to learn to wait. Since he has promised Sixth Brother, as long as you don't trouble him, he will definitely not take the initiative to come to you." "So, when do you want me to wait?" "Wait until the opportunity comes time." "When will the opportunity come?" Chen Xiqiao asked.
"I don't know either." Zhang Hengzhou smiled wryly and shook his head, his face was actually desolate.
Zhang Hengzhou left at some point.Because of Zhang Hengzhou's words, Chen Xiqiao's hard work and hard work just now suddenly drained away.He sat lazily on the chair in the gazebo, staring blankly by himself.The noon sun was shining brightly, and the spring garden was full of purples and reds, but Chen Xiqiao's mood was extremely gloomy.
Although Chen Xiqiao has been waiting for Xie San to reappear for three years, on the other hand, sometimes he secretly hopes that Xie San will not appear in his heart.Chen Xiqiao wanted to take revenge, but was afraid of taking revenge.
On that terrifying night three years ago, Xie San not only destroyed Chen Liu's body, but also Chen Xiqiao's will.Although Chen Xiqiao always tried his best to put on a ruthless, gloomy and cold-blooded appearance in front of others, but in fact he knew very well in his heart that his purpose of doing this was to remind others and himself that he was a very strong person.But in fact, this is not the case. The fiercer his appearance, the weaker his heart is.
In the past three years, Chen Xiqiao has read Xie San's files in the chief arresting yamen hundreds of times.Every time he read it again, his heart became more uncertain, and his fear of Xie San increased.No one can know what Xie San is thinking, but Xie San will always know what others are thinking. His martial arts are astonishingly high, his schemes are elusive, and he is always in the dark, making it hard to guard against.
He is almost no longer a human being, but a real demon.Since Chen Liu's death, the only person in this world who can deal with Xie San is probably Xie San himself.
But Chen Xiqiao had to take revenge.
Maybe there is another way to deal with Xie San.A strange idea suddenly flashed in Chen Xiqiao's heart.He shivered, frightening himself.
Yanxia Town is a very ordinary town.Outside the town, there are several low-rise green hills and a small lake. In the town, there is a small stream winding through the most prosperous street in the town. There are more than 30 shops of various kinds on the street. There is a small market every day, and a big market every five days. When there is a market, it will be more lively, and when there is no market, it will be deserted.There are countless such small towns in the south of the Yangtze River, so Yanxia Town is not well-known.
However, it is a very famous place in Jianghu.Just because there is a very famous woman living here.
Xiao Hangao was the name of this woman.
In the past, there were three historians in martial arts who claimed to understand the past and understand the present.Although the female Tai Shi Zhou Luoyi is not very good at martial arts, her knowledge of martial arts is the best in the world. There is no martial arts she does not know about in the world, and she can also explain the advantages and disadvantages of every martial arts with clarity.Every month, Zhou Luoyi will publish a list of the top ten weapons in the martial arts, listing the ten most powerful weapons, ten martial arts and ten masters of the month. It is recognized as the most timely, fair and accurate weapon list in the martial arts.It's a pity that this number one talented woman in martial arts passed away five years ago.
Wan Shen Tong is known as the most well-informed person among the three major historians of martial arts. As long as he is a person in the world, no matter whether he is famous or unknown, whether he is an old man who has retired from the world for decades or a young man who is about to come out to enter the world, there is almost no one. A person can hide from the eyes of the omnipotent.It's a pity that this well-informed panacea is now an octogenarian. Two years ago, he became paralyzed due to a stroke, and now he can only live on the couch for the rest of his life.
The Universiade Daoist, who is known as the number one fortune teller in the world, has always seen his head but never seen his tail. Apart from giving orders to people and compiling a chronicle of martial arts events every ten years, he has never shown his real body in the world.And in the past three years, there has been no news.Daoist Daoist became famous eighty years ago, so he is at least over a hundred years old now, so many people suspect that this Taoist Daoun has actually died of old age in a hidden corner.
However, talented people emerge from generation to generation. Although the legendary figures of the older generation of martial arts historians have withered, new legendary figures are also emerging.
Xiao Hangao is just such a new legendary figure.She was originally a young lady from a rich family, and her ancestors were once conferred the title of prince.But for some reason, this wayward young lady of a wealthy family fell in love with this mixed world.When she was fifteen years old, she was bewildered by the famous playboy Xu Mubai, so she eloped with him and started wandering around the world.Although she was abandoned by Xu Mubai all the time, Xiao Hangao has become fascinated by life in the world and vowed to become the most famous woman in the world.But when it comes to martial arts and connections, Xiao Haang really has no advantage, and the shortcut to marrying a famous swordsman or a son of a family is also blocked because of the ridiculous love history with Xu Mubai.Therefore, Xiao Hangao decided to find another way, and vowed to become a famous martial arts female Taishi like Zhou Luoyi.
In order to achieve his own reputation, Xiao Hangao paid a high price.She worshiped Zhou Luoyi as her teacher.Although the old aunt Zhou Luoyi was a famous talented woman, she was also notoriously mean.In Jianghu, many young people came to worship her as their teacher because they admired her name, but after following her for less than a week, they fled because they couldn't stand her.To worship her as a teacher is not so much to be her apprentice, but rather to be her maid, not only to be called around by her, to take care of her basic necessities, but also to be constantly picked on by her, even if you have paid Her best efforts were still not enough in her eyes.No one can bear her, but Xiao Hangao just endured it.Therefore, Xiao Hangao became Zhou Luoyi's only disciple in his life, and he learned all Zhou Luoyi's housekeeping skills.
Xiao Hangao not only learned Zhou Luoyi's housekeeping skills, but also got a clear idea of Wan Shentong's family background.For this reason, at the age of eighteen, she became the secret mistress of the old pervert Panama.
However, there is a more secret rumor circulating in the Jianghu.Sometimes Xiao Hangao would devote himself to the brothel to make friends with those people in the world, and set out secrets on the bed that they would never tell even if they died.
Therefore, although Xiao Hanzhang learned from Zhou Luoyi and Wanshentong successively, she is already more capable than the two of them combined. Her knowledge of martial arts is higher than that of Zhou Luoyi, and she knows more about the world than Wanshentong. want more.
If a woman is fragrant and has some special abilities, it will be very difficult for her not to be famous in this arena.
Because of Xiao Hangao's presence, Yanxia Town has also become a famous town in Jianghu.Every year, countless people from all walks of life come here, some just to see the beauty of this glamorous and famous woman, and some hope that by getting acquainted with her, she will leave a mark on Xiao's version of "General History of Wulin". a sum.But more people come to her because they want to get the news they want from her: If you want to find an anonymous enemy, or a hard-to-find martial arts cheat book, or a magic weapon that has been hidden for many years , or want to know what weaknesses there are in my martial arts, then the best way is to ask Xiao Hangao for help.
Although Xiao Hangao lived in Yanxia Town, few people actually found her in the town.Although Xiao Hangao is one of the most famous women in the world, few people know what she looks like.Therefore, many people come to her every year, but most of them return disappointed.On the contrary, the little-known Yanxia Town became prosperous day by day.
It was night again, and the most prosperous streets in the town were already lit up. Drunken high-rollers and laughing warblers wandered in twos and threes on the street corners. The bustling scene of voices, singing and laughing, feasting and feasting.
Just a row of houses away, the small alley on the back of the street was much deserted. People along the street had already closed their doors tightly, and there were only a few faint oil lamps flickering in the windows.It is completely different from Front Street, it seems to be two completely different worlds.
In the whole alley, there is only one tavern with a narrow front that is still open.There were only three people inside, and one of them was Hu Sangui, the owner of the tavern.Hu Sangui was waiting for the last two customers in the restaurant to leave so he could close and go home.
There are two guests, a man and a woman. The man is a young man in his early twenties, and the woman is a woman in her thirties. They are sitting in two corners with the same lonely expression.
Although he didn't know the male guest, Hu Sangui knew the female guest, and she was Zhaochan, a famous prostitute from Cangchunlou in this town.For the past ten years or so, she has always been the chief oiran of this town, and Chun Xiao is worth a thousand dollars overnight, which is exactly what she paid for herself.It's just that as she gets older in recent years, although the charm and beauty still exist, few people are willing to spend a lot of money on her.But Zhaochan is a woman with high self-esteem, and she is not willing to lower her status just because of this.So no guests came to her for three whole months, and the old bustard of Cangchunlou looked at her a little wrongly now, but because she had made great contributions to Cangchunlou in the past, that's why he didn't tell her directly .
Perhaps in order to relieve the melancholy in her heart, for two weeks, Zhaochan would come to this secluded tavern at night to drink away her worries.For her sake, Hu Sangui has not closed the store on time for several days.
A hero's end and a beauty's twilight are the saddest situations in life, so Hu Sangui couldn't help but sympathize with Zhaochan.If Zhaochan's worth can be reduced by half, Hu Sangui is even willing to take out the coffin books he has accumulated all his life to kiss the beauty of the town's number one oiran at that time.
"Shopkeeper, bring me another jug of wine." Zhaochan yelled with her tongue out.There were already six empty wine jars beside her.
Here comes the wine.Zhaochan shook her jade finger lightly, and filled her own bowl with wine.In the bowl, she saw another haggard face.She knew that this face was her own, she was already old, and she could no longer let men risk their lives for her, or even make them pay an extra thousand gold for her.He could keep drinking the wine in the bowl, but he couldn't let that haggard face disappear.
When she was young, she thought that as long as she wanted, she could make any man fall under her pomegranate skirt, and she could use her body to conquer the whole world.Only now do I realize that all of this is false.No one is stronger than time.
If she hadn't been fascinated by that enemy back then, would her life have been different?Will he always live that kind of life that is as peaceful as water, and experience the happiness that is as peaceful as water?
However, there are no assumptions in life, sometimes one step is a lifetime, as long as you step out, there is no turning back.
The more she drank, the brighter her eyes became.She noticed that the young man in the other corner had been staring at her intently for three hours.
This finally gave her a little confidence back.Thinking that at this age, she could still be fascinated by such a handsome young man, Zhaochan, who was already very intoxicated, couldn't help feeling a little sweet in her heart.What's more, this young man's eyebrows really have a bit of the demeanor of that enemy back then.
She made up her mind, stood up unsteadily, and walked towards the young man.She looked at the young man viciously, with winking eyes and a peachy face, and said commandingly: "Kiss me!" The young man was not intimidated by her at all, and without hesitation, he grabbed her slender Waist, lips that were as hot as fire were attached to her lips, and a powerful tongue was already entangled on her tongue.
Hasn't she experienced such a kiss for a long time?So she found that her body had followed the kiss, becoming as soft as a powerless snake.
After the long kiss, the young man's hand was already on her body, stroking up and down.
"Shopkeeper, go out and close the door, this is yours." The young man casually threw a thin piece of paper from his body, and it floated towards Hu Sangui like a cloud.Zhaochan saw the number on it, it was actually two thousand gold.
Holding the bank note, Hu Sangui was so excited that his eyes almost popped out.It was a fortune that he would never earn in his lifetime.
So no need for others to talk nonsense, he already understands what he should do.
Hu Sangui left obediently, and left the tavern to this strange pair of foolish men and women.
After a long time of greed and joy, the sky was completely bright before I knew it.It has been a long time, and Zhaochan has never carnivaled like last night, nor has she been completely satisfied like last night.
The young man beside her was still admiring her from above her body, his eyes were blinking, he was innocent like a child, and he seemed to be very attached to her.
It's a pity that now Zhaochan has completely sobered up from the wine, and her mind has become very sober.It is easier for a woman to see through the truth than a man when she wakes up, especially a woman like Zhaochan.
She knew that her temples were messed up, her face must have become more haggard, and the rouge and powder used to cover it up had almost fallen off, and now the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes must have been exposed.And through her half-open skirt, her breasts had drooped loosely after her desire was satisfied, protruding from the slowly deformed body of a thirty-five-year-old woman.
Now she has clearly guessed in her heart that this young man must have come here for something because he tried so hard to please her.Because Zhaochan is just the flower name she used in Cangchunlou, her real name is Xiao Hangao.No one would have thought that this mysterious and well-known Xiao Hangao was actually Zhaochan, the oiran of Yanxia Town.
Although I don't know where this young man learned that he is Xiao Hanzhang, but Xiao Hanzhang appreciates this young man's patience and the means of making women happy. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer young people who are patient. There are even fewer people who can make women happy. Based on these two points, Xiao Hangao felt that he could give this young man a little help.
She pushed the young man off her body, and sat up half leaning, with the look on her face that only the old Jianghu would have. Looking at this somewhat surprised young man, she asked coldly: "What do you want from me, you can tell now." "Does Xie San have any relatives still alive?" Chen Xiqiao understood that at this time, every word he said had better be the truth, and there must be no slightest Beat around the bush.
"Are you Chen Liu's son?" Unexpectedly, Xiao Hangao had already guessed his real identity after only one sentence. Chen Xiqiao couldn't help but admire Xiao Hangao. This woman's scheming, wisdom and experience are indeed not Nothing compared to those young women.
"Not bad." Chen Xiqiao nodded obediently.
Xiao Hangao stared at this young man named Chen Xiqiao for a while, and then continued: "Xie San seems to be a loner all the time." Chen Xiqiao was a little disappointed, and closed his eyes.
"However," Xiao Hangao paused for a moment, and then began to speak again, "When he was young, he had several secret lovers whom he loved." "Oh?" Chen Xiqiao's eyes lit up again.
"The most famous ones are of course the so-called 'Three Lengyan Fairies'," Xiao Hangao said in a sneering tone, "Xie San built himself a fairyland in Woma Valley—Meng Village, and it was Leng who took care of this place for him. Fairy Yan San, but Xie San killed them in the end." "I know these three people, the reason why my father was able to break through Mengcun back then and forced Xie San Xie Gong with tricks was precisely because he got the three women who were alive. A book in a bottle left behind. It’s just that they have been dead for many years, so it doesn’t really mean much to me.” “However, even your father doesn’t know. I have a secret lover." "Who is she?" Chen Xiqiao asked hastily.
"Her name is Lan Xixi." "It seems that there is no such person in Jianghu." "Just because she is not from the Central Plains martial arts, Lan Xixi is actually a swindler." "So where is she now?" "Xie San In addition to building myself a dream village, a fairyland on earth, I also built myself a demonic world on earth—the island of desire." "Island of desire? It is the island of desire in the gentle township of the gold-selling cave in the legend in the rivers and lakes." "Yes, desire On the island, there are only the world’s biggest gambling game, the most exquisite feast and the most beautiful women. Although Xie San is a catcher, he has always spent a lot of money. Some people suspect that he has other ways to make money. In fact, Yudao is his source of funds. Lan Xixi is the hostess of the largest casino on the island, the Sunset Casino, and she is also the real steward of Yudao." "How can I find this Yudao." "Every March 3rd, June 6th, September 9th, and December Twelve, as long as you bring enough 100,000 taels to a fishing village called Haijiao on the South China Sea, someone will take you to Yudao.
"Thank you." Chen Xiqiao's face showed gratitude.
"However, Xie San hasn't gone to look for Lan Xixi for more than ten years, so if you try to blackmail him with Lan Xixi, it may not have any effect." Chen Xiqiao was thinking, with a half-smile on his face : "Who said I was going to blackmail him?" "Okay, I've told you everything I can tell you, and you can go." Xiao haggard showed a tired look on his face.
Chen Xiqiao was still staring at her intently: "Although I was looking for you because I wanted something from you, when I saw you, I really fell in love with you. In fact, I have always liked you more Older women think they are more charming. So, I don't want to leave now." Saying that, Chen Xiqiao even kissed her.The moist lips kissed the crow's feet on the corners of Xiao Hangao's eyes.Although he didn't drink, Xiao Han's face was flushed again, and his body became weak again.
On March 3rd, the dragon looks up.Chen Xiqiao has been waiting in Haijiao Village for a whole week.
Since Xie San's appearance, in just one month, Xie San has committed five or six major cases. The subtlety and ruthlessness of the methods are beyond anyone's imagination.And his whereabouts were even more erratic. He had just appeared in Lingnan a few days ago, but a few days later he emerged from the deep cold outside the pass under the control of Jin Guo.宋金辽夏等世仇之国为了对付谢三，不得不在私下里联起手来，但至今毫无成效。谢三的人就如雪泥鸿爪，不要说抓他，甚至想找到他的踪迹都很困难。
虽然只是农历的三月，海角村的天气却已经比江南大暑之日还要炎热。热辣辣的阳光把村子烤得就像是一个蒸笼。村中的男女老少早已穿上了土布制成的短衣短裤，陈溪桥也学样从村里的估衣铺里买了几套带有本地风格的短衣短裤。不过，他买的不是土布做成的那种，而是用临安府飞来峰下产的专门用来进贡的上等丝绸做成的，做功精细，一看就是一流的巧手一针一线缝制起来的。
陈溪桥实在没有想到在这个偏僻的弹丸之地，竟然还能买到这么贵重的消费品。
事实上，从进村的那刻起，陈溪桥就发现海角村绝不是一个普通的小渔村。这里的客栈已经完全不输于临安城最好的客栈，房间里地板和床上都铺着用最上等的小牛皮做成的席子，每套房间里都自带着一个庞大的浴室，里面有一个玉砌的澡盆，澡盆下面连着竹子做成的输水管，管子里源源不断地涌出从山上温泉而来的清水，在里面泡上几个时辰，实在是一件再享受不过的事情。
而这里的厨子也好得出奇，只要你能叫得上名字的菜肴，他们都会做，而且味道绝对连京城最一流的馆子都未必能做得出来。
虽然这是一个享受生活的好地方，但是七天时间对陈溪桥来说，还是太漫长了一些。不过，幸好这里的村姑都个个俊俏标致，所以这七天他过得不算太闷。一向喜欢和姐姐妹妹们厮混在一起的陈溪桥，甚至和这里最漂亮的两个村姑成为了好朋友。阿琼和小雅是这两个村姑的名字，现在她们两个又来找陈溪桥了，硬拖着他一起到海滩边上去闲逛。
正午的阳光把陈溪桥的脑袋都晒疼了，而阿琼和小雅却好像没事人一样，依然叽叽喳喳地说个不停。虽然穿着上等丝绸做的短衫短裤，汗还是止不住地从陈溪桥的身上滚落下来，他只得又从身上拿出那叠一万两银子一张的银票，当扇子扇了起来。
海滩上已经有很多人了，而且每个人都跟陈溪桥一样，像个暴发户一样，把所有的财物都暴露在了光天化日之下，好像生怕别人不知道他们有钱似的，成叠的巨额银票、比鹅蛋还要大上几倍的宝石和夜明珠，竟成了此地最不稀奇的物品。
如果现在有一队强盗来打劫的话，一定会满载而归的。陈溪桥很奇怪，为什么江湖上的黑道竟没有人来打海角村的主意。
刚这样一想，强盗就真的出现。海上突然来了一艘挂着骷髅旗的海盗船，迅速地靠了岸，冲下来一伙袒胸露肚的彪形大汉。打头的海盗陈溪桥曾在总捕衙门的档案里见过画像，是南海边上一个三流的海盗帮会头子，一刀断海苏长天。
“老子只要钱，不要命，识相的就把钱交出来!”苏长天大声喊道。
陈溪桥却觉得这个场面有些滑稽，因为他早就看出来，海滩上的这些人，每个人都是绝顶的高手，每个人只要用一根小手指，就能在刹那之间取苏长天的性命。
所以，苏长天虽然叫嚷了半天，海滩上却没有人搭理他，好像他根本就不存在似的。
陈溪桥不禁有些同情苏长天和他的同伴，一个人如果在江湖上混却没有一点自知之明，他的命运不仅会很可怜，而且会很可悲。陈溪桥不知道这场闹剧会以何种方式收场。
陈溪桥正感慨间，他身边的阿琼和小雅已经“飞”了起来，像两个舞动的飞天，柔指轻绕间，那些彪形大汉，竟一个个像没有四两重的沙袋，被随手扔回了他们坐来的船上。
苏长天和他的手下站在甲板上不禁目瞪口呆，好像恍若梦中，并不明白他们为何在不知不觉中站回了甲板。过了一会，他们的脸上才开始大惊失色。
海盗船以比来时还快的速度离开了。
陈溪桥也有些目瞪口呆，他没想到这两个温柔可爱的小姑娘，竟都是深藏不露的高手。现在，他开始明白，为什么没有黑道人士敢到这个小渔村来撒野了。
“公子，让你受惊了。”阿琼和小雅又“飞”回了陈溪桥身边，仍是那副温柔可爱的样子。
“两位姑娘，瞒得我好苦啊。”陈溪桥道。
“公子岂非也有很多瞒着我们的事情？”阿琼眨着眼睛，调皮地说。
“那么，你们肯定也知道该怎么上欲岛去了。”“公子不要着急，该去的时候，你自然就知道了。”小雅柔声说道。
陈溪桥的脚下忽然动了一下，他发现靠海的半边村子竟然从整个海角村脱落了出来，慢慢地向大海驶去。
海角村其实不是一个村子，而是一艘船和一个码头。陈溪桥所在的那半个村子其实正是一艘庞大无比的海船，村子里的房子、沙滩、树林甚至小山包都是这艘船的水上部分。船上的水手和伙计都是像阿琼和小雅这样的漂亮姑娘，而小雅和阿琼正是船上的船老大和船老二。
在这艘船离开的时候，另一艘一模一样的大船正在靠岸。很快，海角村又重新变成了那个完整的海角村。
“你看，我们现在不是正在往欲岛去吗？”小雅的脸上露出了狐狸般的笑容。
船开得很稳，也很快，海上的景物迅速地向后倒退。第三天晌午的时候，这艘奇怪而庞大的船终于重新靠岸，欲岛就在眼前了。
欲岛看上去就像是一个人间仙境，海水湛蓝，微风习习，椰树成林，沙滩上沙极细极白极软，赤脚踩在上面比踩在绸缎上面还要舒服，跟这艘奇怪的船上的沙是同一种沙。岛上到处都是清泉、小溪和深潭，里面的水远远看去像宝石一样绿，掬在手里却又比水晶还要透明还要清凉。
欲岛显然要比海角村更南，阳光也要比海角村更烈，但欲岛却要比海角村凉快许多。因为整个欲岛上房子的外墙都是用万年玄冰造的，所以房子的阳光很好，而又没有暑热之气，连整个海岛的温度都因为这些房子的存在而骤降了许多。
但这并不是欲岛最吸引人的地方。欲岛最吸引人的地方是岛上的人，女人。
陈溪桥实在不明白，岛上为什么会有这么多的美女，好像天下美女十个中至少有一个都被收集到了这个神秘迤逦的海岛上。风情、身材、肤色各异，有肤如烧炭、齿如编贝的女昆仑奴，有肌肤胜雪、金发碧眼的西域胡姬，有体形矫健、眼圈深陷的暹罗美人，有身形玲珑、神情甜媚的倭国少女。
而且，更重要的是所有这些美女身上都没有穿衣服，她们一丝不挂，或坐、或站、或卧、或行、或歌、或舞、或在那些玄冰房子里向外面顾首翘盼，脸上没有一点羞涩或者不自然的神情，好像光滑的皮肤真的就是她们最华丽的衣服一样。在太阳的直射之下，她们的毛孔中正有油一样的细汗在慢慢地渗出来，把她们本就光亮照人的皮肤擦得更亮了，陈溪桥甚至从那汗中看到了那种叫做欲望的东西。陈溪桥现在开始明白，这个仙境一样的海岛为什么偏偏要起名叫欲岛。
船上的客人差不多都已经走了下来，每个人神色都潮湿并且呆滞，好像真的置身在了一个不真实的梦境中。
“现在，先跟大家讲一下本岛的规矩。”船老大小雅还是一副柔情似水的样子，站在大船的制高点上，身边站着阿琼。小雅的声音低柔却很有威慑力，原来还在交头接耳的客人都安静了下来。
“请大家，把所有的财物都拿出来，一会儿我们会有专人来帮你把财物收起来，你可以把它们兑换成日落赌场的筹码，每个筹码一千两。当然，如果你不愿意把所有财物都换成筹码，也可以交给我们替你保管。然后在六月份下一次航班离岛的时候，原物奉还。”船老二阿琼的语速比小雅快，声音也听上去更清脆，像一串丁当作响的银铃一样好听。
这时已有一队美女来到了客人面前，陈溪桥的面前也站着三名赤裸的女子，一个手里托着一个空的竹篓，一个托着一个装满筹码的竹篓，还有一个什么东西都没有拿。陈溪桥用银票换来了几百个筹码，随身带着的其他物品都放进了那个空的竹篓。等到陈溪桥把这些事情都做完以后，那个空手的美女已经走了上来，纤细柔软的手指在陈溪桥的身体上面一寸一寸抚摸起来。她摸得很仔细，连一些本不太应该摸的地方，也查了一遍。虽然陈溪桥不太喜欢让人搜身，但是一想到搜身的人是这样的一个美女，而且还浑身赤裸，他也就没有什么好再说的了。世上不可能再找出比这更公平的搜身方式了。
“那么我们在岛上的用度怎么算？”有人忽然在下面高声问。
“这一点请各位放心，既然来了本岛，在离开之前，就一直是我们的客人。哪怕你把所有的钱都已经输光了，岛上的一切美食和享受，还是会向大家免费开放的，你们尽管随取随用，而且六月六回去的时候，还会奉上一百两银子作为路费。”小雅不慌不忙地解释。
“当然，岛上的这些美女也是免费向大家提供的，只要你能赶在别人之前提出要求，这里的姐妹们一定会给大家一个满意的答复的。”阿琼的脸微微有些泛红，好像还很害羞地低下了头，但一双眼珠子却滴溜溜地转个不停。
“岛上的姐妹里面是不是包括你们两个？”陈溪桥忽然笑盈盈地问。
阿琼已经捂着嘴吃吃地笑了起来：“我就知道你一定会这么问的。”“这里的女人除了老板娘，你对谁都可以提要求。”小雅的脸也红了，声音却比蚊子还要轻，兰花指在身体后面的带子上轻轻一拈，身上的短袍已经完全卸落下来。而这时阿琼也已经赤裸得像个婴儿一样了。两个人和岛上其他女人已经真的毫无二致了。
她们两个盈盈款款地走到了陈溪桥身边，苗条玲珑的小雅一直低着头，高挑丰满的阿琼则笑得像只狐狸那样娇媚。“公子，有什么要求，现在可以告诉我们姐妹了。”阿琼道。
“我的要求只有一个，”陈溪桥脸上的笑意更浓，手已经不老实地搭在小雅和阿琼的肩上，“那就是现在就吃了你们。”
整整一个白天，陈溪桥都跟阿琼和小雅一起呆在了一座玄冰房子的天鹅绒大床上。陈溪桥不是君子，阿琼和小雅亦非淑女。白天在岛上除了吃吃喝喝，并没有太多打发时间的好办法，所以他们在一起时，根本不需要任何山盟海誓，便已让一切该发生的都发生了。
入夜，已有些疲倦的陈溪桥扶着阿琼和小雅的肩出了房子。天虽然暗了下来，但欲岛却还是亮如白昼。
每隔三五步，岛上任何一条小径上便会有一个玄冰做成的灯柱，油灯在玄冰灯罩的映衬下，更加熠熠生辉。再加上每座玄冰房子里也都点满了灯，让整个海岛像一下子又凭空多出了好几百盏巨灯。
所有来岛上的客人都左拥右抱着各色美女，向岛上最中心也最庞大的那幢玄冰房子走去。一组玄冰油灯伫立在屋顶的大平台上，组成了四个比这里一般的房子还要大的字：“日落赌坊。”陈溪桥也跟着人群进了这幢房子。赌局已经开始了。
经过一个白天之后，来这里的赌客中不少人已经习惯了欲岛的这种赤裸风格，也纷纷开始像跟他们相拥的女子一样，裸裎而作，裸裎而息。
赌场里人声鼎沸，赌客们正在各式各样的赌局前试着自己的运气，从麻将、牌九到最原始的骰子，赌场里所有的赌博方式一应俱全。主持赌局的荷官和看场的保镖同样是一些浑身赤裸的年轻女子。赌场的前方竟然还有一个舞台一样的地方，上面正有一队金发胡姬在绕着一些玄冰柱子跳艳舞，用眼神和身体不断地做出各种挑逗的姿态来。
不过，陈溪桥并没有把目光停在这些艳丽的妖姬身上。因为他看到了一个很有派头的女人，一个赌场中惟一穿着衣服的女人。
二楼的围栏处，这个穿着一身丝袍的半老徐娘正坐在一张太师椅上，高高地跷起二郎腿，手里灵巧地托着一个足有九尺长五寸宽的超级旱烟袋。她一边懒洋洋地看着楼下的赌客，一边不断呼噜呼噜地吞云吐雾，把自己的脸和脸上的神情都隐藏在了那片缭绕的烟雾后面。
不用问身边的小雅和阿琼，陈溪桥就已经可以认定，这个很有派头的女人就是岛上惟一不能向她提出要求的女人，日落赌坊的老板娘蓝惜惜。
顺着蓝惜惜目光的方向，陈溪桥也向赌场左侧的一个牌九桌子望了过去。
赌桌前，坐庄的荷官神色凝重，额头竟已沁出了虚汗。原来她面前堆得像座山一样高的筹码，现在只剩下了最后几个。
所有的筹码现在都已经堆在了对面赌客的面前。这个赌客今天的手气实在是好得出奇。拿到的牌里竟没有一次小于九点，其中甚至还有好几次至尊宝。
任何人有这么好的运气，都会笑得很开心。这个赌客现在不仅在笑，而且还开始吹口哨，眼睛还很轻佻地停在荷官因为呼吸加快而起伏不定的胸部上。
陈溪桥已经认出了这个赌客。正是当年被女太史周罗衣评为暗器手法第一快的妙手浪子方很慢。
虽然名字叫很慢，但是方很慢却有一双比闪电还快的手。从生下来那天起，他两只手的小手臂上就比一般人多出一根大筋，这让他的手要比常人更灵活一点，天生就是个练暗器的好材料。为了收他入门，连一向不收外姓弟子的两大暗器家族唐门和霹雳堂都决定为他破例，而当年的天下三大暗器高手也为了争他，反目成仇。
但是，天下第一聪明人大运道人却认为，这双手不祥，他告诉方很慢的爹妈如果想让他们的儿子活得更好一些，就一定不要让这双手变得太快。所以，爹妈就给他取了现在的这个名字。
虽然，方很慢没有入唐门和霹雳堂，也没有拜天下三大暗器高手为师，但方很慢还是靠着自己的摸索，最后练就了天下最快的暗器手法。三十多年来，他的手已经越来越快，但是他没有像大运道人预言的那样，因为手太快，而活得不好。恰恰相反，他的手越快，他便变得越有面子，他在江湖上的势力也就越大，他荷包里的钱就越多。
赌场里观看这场赌局的人都看出来了，方很慢一定是出老千了，但是谁都看不出他是怎样出的老千。连陈溪桥也没有看出来。天下第一快手果然不是浪得虚名。
荷官紧张的脸上好像终于缓和了一点，她慢慢地摊开了手上的牌九，是一对天牌。但是方很慢却连动也没有动自己桌面上的那两张牌，脸上还是那副潮湿的笑容，好像他已经赢定了一样。
陈溪桥下意识地看了看坐在楼上围栏后面的蓝惜惜，想看看这个派头很大的老板娘怎样处理眼前这个棘手的局面。
蓝惜惜一点也不着急，好像楼下输掉的不是几百万两银子，而真的只是几个不值钱的竹筹子，她还在吸着旱烟，不拿旱烟的手还像个怀春的少女一样捋着自己的头发。
方很慢终于准备开牌了。他的手慢慢地向桌子上的那两张牌伸了过去。
就在这时，蓝惜惜突然出手了，在她将头发甩起来的时候，两根簪子激射了出来，竟然让方很慢的那两只快手躲无可躲，桌上的牌还没有打开，他的手里却掉下两张牌，正好是一副至尊宝，而桌上那两大排码放得很好的牌九，也不知什么时候，少了两张。
方很慢的脸色变得刷白，不仅因为自己的把戏被拆穿了，更因为老板娘的簪子没打在别的地方，偏偏打在了他手上多出来的那两根大筋上，把它们彻彻底底地打断了。
他的手不再是天底下最快的那双手，而成了无数多双普普通通的手中的一双。江湖是一个很现实的地方，他清清楚楚地直到，现在他没有了这双快手，原来那些整天跟在他屁股后面不断恭维他的江湖人，再看见他时一定会变成另一副嘴脸。虽然他还有一双跟普通人一样的手，但是他却已经不会干普通人的手会干的事情。他实在不知道日后的漫漫长日将怎样度过，现在他终于开始理解大运道人的预言，一个太有用的人变得没用时，他的命运甚至还及不上一个本就无用的人。
“你为什么不杀了我？”方很慢嘶声向楼上的蓝惜惜喊叫。
荷官的脸上又恢复了红润的神色，她正在将一堆一堆的筹码从方很慢面前移开。
“我是个生意人，”蓝惜惜又吐了一大口烟雾，慢条斯理地说，“只想赚钱，不想要人性命。虽然我的赌场不欢迎你了，但是六月六以前，你还可以随便呆在岛上。”蓝惜惜的话让方很慢感到更深的屈辱：他现在连被杀的价值都没有了。他紧紧地攥着拳头，向桌上的那堆筹码扑了过去。
但是他身子刚动，原来还像柔顺的小猫一样卧在他跟前的那两个年轻女子已经站了起来，轻轻巧巧地架住了他，把他搬出了赌场，任他怎样挣脱都不行。赌场中的赌客们发出了爽朗的嬉笑之声，好像是在看着一个天大的笑话。
“好吧，大家现在继续。”蓝惜惜还是坐在围栏后的太师椅上，微笑着向楼下的赌客点了点头。陈溪桥终于第一次看清了蓝惜惜的脸，除了那些被流逝的岁月刻出的皱纹，她的脸标致极了，看得出年轻时确实是个迷死人不赔命的美人儿。怪不得谢三这样的冷血之徒，竟也会被她迷住。
赌场里又恢复了正常。
忽然，又是一阵喧哗。透过玄冰做成的天花板和墙壁，所有人都看到欲岛的夜空中好像放起了焰火，不断有火球在岛外向天上升起。
一名女昆仑奴慌慌忙忙地跑了进来，用很生硬的汉话说道：“外面……外面来了很多船，把岛团团围住了。”“不用通知她了，我们已经到了！”不等女昆仑奴把话说完，一队彪形大汉已经闯了进来。带头的竟是那个在海角村被阿琼和小雅扔回到海盗船上去的苏长天。不过，现在他们已经不是那副海盗打扮，都已换了一身捕快服装。
小雅和阿琼又“飞”了起来，同时“飞”起来的还有场子里其他的年轻女子。但这次苏长天和他的手下并没有像沙袋那样无足轻重，所以那些“飞”的女子都像撞上了铜墙铁壁，很快被“弹”了回来。
苏长天只是一个化名，他真正的名字是司马长天，是司马家十兄妹中的老大。
事实上，司马家的十兄妹都已经在这里了，其中当然有司马无盐。而且看上去，司马无盐好像还是这里的总指挥。司马兄弟在把敌人“弹”出去之后，都带着询问的目光看着司马无盐，等着她进一步的指令。
事实上，整个行动正是陈溪桥和司马无盐共同策划的。陈溪桥化名来到海角村，司马长天化名为海盗苏长天，到海角村来试探虚实，随后由陈溪桥在往欲岛去的路上，撒下一种特制的血腥聚鲨粉，将海中的鲨鱼不断吸引过来，再由司马无盐带领大队人马跟着鲨鱼追踪过来。整个计划完美无缺。
“我们没来晚吧？”司马无盐笑盈盈地走到陈溪桥身边，问道。
“不晚，而且还太早了一点。”“是不是让你少了很多'假公济私的机会？”司马无盐眼珠子滴溜溜地转着，咬着嘴唇，恨恨地盯着那些赤裸的女子看了很久，“从现在开始，你的眼睛要是再看那些不该看的东西，我就……”“你就怎样？”陈溪桥笑了起来，故意逗着司马无盐。
“我就挖出你的眼珠子来。”司马无盐说话的声音越来越轻，脸上羞红着，自己也不好意思起来。
楼上的蓝惜惜还是没有动，跟刚才一样坐在她的太师椅上，自顾自抽着旱烟。
“这儿谁当家？！”陈溪桥朗声说。
蓝惜惜仍然不动。
“把场子里所有的东西都给我砸了！”陈溪桥指挥道。
“在场各位稍安勿躁，我们只是奉命捉拿蓝惜惜，与诸位无干，大家不用担心。”司马无盐柔声说。只一句话，便让场中的气氛缓和下来。刚才还神色紧张的赌客们，现在终于放松下来，握紧的拳头垂了下来，个个袖手旁观，看起热闹来。
捕快们开始乒乒乓乓地砸起赌场里的各种摆设来。
“慢着！”蓝惜惜终于开始动了。她站起身，从楼梯上慢慢地走下，来到陈溪桥跟前。深深地吸了一口旱烟，喷在了陈溪桥的脸上。
“年轻人，你是哪个衙门的？难道你的上司没有告诉过你，他们每年能在我这里拿到多少花红？”陈溪桥不动声色地看着蓝惜惜，向身边的捕快努了努嘴：“把她说的话记下来！”一个捕快端上笔砚，另一个捕快在一个折子上记录起来。
蓝惜惜大笑：“好，年轻人有魄力，能告诉我你的名字吗？”“陈溪桥。”“你是陈六的儿子？”陈溪桥点头。
“你想怎样？”蓝惜惜问。“想请你跟我走一趟。”陈溪桥停顿了片刻，“事情办完之后，自然就放了你。” “你请得动吗？”蓝惜惜似笑非笑。
陈溪桥无可奈何耸了耸肩：“尽力而为。”说完，陈溪桥的掌刀一样地向蓝惜惜粉颈砍去。蓝惜惜像片蓝色的彩云向后悠悠地飞去，陈溪桥却像粘上了她似的，右掌离她的脖子始终只有一寸的距离。蓝惜惜一抖双腕，两条长长的红绸从她的袍袖中飞了出来。手上的旱烟管挡住了陈溪桥的手掌，红绸却已经向陈溪桥缠绕过去。
陈溪桥在空中硬生生地停了下来，像块千斤石似的向下坠去。蓝惜惜袖中的红绸却向长了眼睛似的，也在空中转了一个弯，向陈溪桥追逐而去。红绸已经完全展开了，像两片无边无际的红网把陈溪桥罩在了里面。
司马无盐好像一点也不着急，她甚至已经找了一张桌子坐了下来，还给自己斟了一杯茶。
陈溪桥的手里不知什么时候，已经多出了一把剑。剑像狂风般飞舞，将天罗地网似的红绸吹得鼓了起来。
剑越来越快，风也越来越大，红绸也绷得越来越紧。
吱啦啦，狂风终于撑破了红绸。两条红绸丝丝缕缕，变成了几十条。陈家家传的大狂风剑法果然不同凡响。
陈溪桥终于再次破空而出，左掌已经逼近蓝惜惜了。蓝惜惜和他对了一掌，然后腾空向后翻去。
丝丝缕缕的红绸卷起了一张桌上的144张麻将，打向了陈溪桥身上的144个穴位。
陈溪桥的露水之剑也终于出手了。
陈溪桥人和剑已经不见，空中的麻将却已经整整齐齐地排成了一个方阵。一阵停顿之后，麻将噼里啪啦地向下掉去，陈溪桥的人和剑又出现了，13张麻将停在了他的剑面上，另有一张麻将打在了蓝惜惜的膝盖上。蓝惜惜跪倒在了地上。十四张麻将加在一起正好是一副字一色。
“满贯，我胡
