Book 38 - Chapter 12 – Enemy and Us Difficult to Tell (1/2)
Xu Ziling opened the outer courtyard gate of the Yanshan Winery, the first thing that caught his eyes was shi+ye Hua, having slightly comical face with his pair of slanted eous dress, tall and strongly built, heroic and grand, around thirty years old, his nose was slightly too long, the corner of his widewith self-confidence, the kind of person ould constantly looking for facts to prove that he was the greatest
shi+ye Hua saluted and said, “I a for an audience” [Just so you know, the ‘Xu’ of Xu Kaishan is different character froled hard to suppress the urge to look at shi+ye Hua’s expression, for fear that he would not be able to restrain hi He szhu is overly courteous; how could we dare to accept?”
Xu Kaishan revealed a bending-his-ear-to-listen-attentively look; he said, “Such a for to the sound of saber and sword I know that great- blows It’s only natural that one is Shaoshuai, but who is the other gentleman? Even if I had to cutto pay the price to know”
Xu Ziling’s heart turned cold; he knew that he had guessed wrong He was sure that thethe wolf-bandits that he encountered last night was not this person Not only the body shape was not right, the Xu Kaishan before his eyes was a lot more formidable, his martial art had reached their level Could it be that he had accused hi said, “That is Ba Fenghan As long as Xu Xiong is willing to inquire, Zaixia would be happy to oblige”
Emotionally , ept Qu Ao back to Tiele Ha, I, Xu Kaishan ood luck, to be able to ht Xiaodi is giving a dinner party, three gentleive Xiaodi a little bit of face”
Xu Ziling was confused Toward this Xu Kaishan, he did not have the slightest feeling that he was a fake; just like shi+ Zhixuan’s disguise as Holy Monk Dade, he did not reveal the slightest bit of flaw If that was indeed the case, then Xu Kaishan was really too terrifying Who was he, actually?
Trying to sound hi to see soedy, which delayed your arrival at Yin Ma Yi for one night? I wonder as the outcome of your trip?”
Xu Kaishan solemnly said, “I was half a step too late, that person has been killed to prevent hiely, there were also two dead bodies nearby, one man and one woman The way this pair of man and wo said, “What?”
Stunned, Xu Kaishan asked, “Does Xu Xiong know the described Jin Huanzhen and Zhou Laotan’s appearance
Xu Kaishan said, “I dare say it’s them But who are they, actually? Hoere they related to Cui wang’s dog breed? Does Xu Xiong want to examine them personally? It’s very convenient, I can have the bodies brought here Oh! How about toht we have to drink our fill and talk freely until daybreak”
Suddenly Xu Ziling felt that he has fallen into the disadvantageous position, because he was coh this person Had it not been for he and Kou Zhong joined the battle, perhaps all the other gangs and societies added together still could not defeat the gentleaze briefly made contact with shi+ye Hua; he sensed that deep in his heart, shi+ye Hua was terrified S did not know that your sworn brother and us have become like water and fire; he even put three-day li caht not be happy?”
Xu Kaishan laughed aloud and said, “I came this time precisely to be the old peace-maker What matter cannot be resolved peacefully? Wait till everybody raises his wine cup and talk happily, forget former enmity, and then we’ll look for the best solution No matter how much we’ll have to pay to redeem Da Xiaojie’s sheepskin, I, Xu Kaishan will cover it Theis that we all have open and happy hearts”
Xu Ziling cried for his Niang inwardly This was the first tieous position and lacking in strength to defend himself in a verbal battle; the opponent had cohtly, he said, “How about several workers of Da Xiaojie’s branch office that their whereabouts is still unknown? The longer we fail to resolve this er we and your honorable sworn brother cannot sit down together, talking in tranquil and even-tehed and said, “That is just a s to shi+ye Hua, he nodded his head shi+ye Hua immediately withdrew to the ht torch, and used the fire to send out a signal to someone in a distant place
The sound of weapons clashi+ng came to an abrupt end
Xu Kaishan spoke leisurely, “When we have spare time later, Xiaodi would like to ask for soentlemen I did not expect that not only Shaoshuai’s saber technique is formidable, his archery skill is even more brilliant, beyond everybody’s expectation I have examined those Huihe wicked thieves’ condition The arrows coh the vital part, iron shi+eld was not much of a use either, one arrow and it’s done for”
Xu Ziling said, “About killing people to shut their ive me more details?”
Xu Kaishan said, “That man was called Ge Shou’ [lit stolen goods/booty/spoils hand] Ma Ji For so Shou’ and secretly contacted Xiaodi to meet at the first abandoned Mountain God te that he had inforive hi expenses since he wanted to escape to faraway places Who would have thought that by the time I arrived, he already entlemen are interested, you could exa the sanized But Xu Xiong has not told Xiaodi who those two people are?”
Xu Ziling knew that he was sensing that Ba Fenghan, Kou Zhong, and Ren Jun were co toward them He said, “That pair of man and woman was from a famous sect of the Central Plains’ demonic school; they were husband and wife The man was called Zhou Laotan, the woht they would die by violence in the northern territory”
This ’s left and right, respectively Two pairs of eyes, like four arrows, shot at Xu Kaishan
Xu Kaishan saluted and said, “Nice toentle tiether; I have no ret in life”
They heard the sound of pattering hoof beats, a horse-drawn carriage arrived outside the door shi+ye Hua, who has been waiting for a long tie in single file
Ren Jun, as standing next to Kou Zhong, blurted out, “Li Shu!” [uncle]
Stunned, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at each other They were surprised, not because these people were being released, but because Uncle Li, five people’s countenance was caln that they had been detained
Although inwardly they were happy, but they also felt sohed and said, “Li Shu, co and Ba Xiong what really happened”
Uncle Li was around fifty, he appeared to be loyal and honest; he said, “Three Daye, please understand, ent to Beiping to deliver goods to a custo back when on the ere intercepted by the jia sent Only then did we understand that someone posted a seal on the shop, while inside, the room was splashed with red paint and was left in a uarantee it withis absolutely not soe is an unrivalled hero; anything happens, he would resolve it with open saber, open spear Otherwise, inside and outside the Pass, everybody could not possibly give hi felt greatly aard, they were nearly speechless, so a
Kou Zhong laughed and said, “Turns out it’s athat happened here like the back of your hand, I wonder who ht instructed the hotels around here not to receive us?”
Laughing involuntarily, Xu Kaishan said, “It was a freaky coincidence In the last few days, there is a ru around the Shanhai county town The ru Sha [lit Twin Demons of the Black River], whose na to look for Dage for revenge Those two ood appearance], but their hands are extremely vicious and very ruthless, they won’t shi+rk fro is that they went everywhere to rape women Because they are so unpleasant to the eye, one or two years ago Du Dage went out personally in a hunt and kill ed to slip away Reportedly recently they want to co laugh to let the two boys step down the stage; he said, “I a for them as well; if they want to drop in, that will besaid, “Unexpectedly it was aHa! This is a case of a toast we did not drink, but we drank as the result of having lost a bet Where is Du Ba wang? He has to punish Xiaodi three cups Ha!”
Xu Ziling knew that Kou Zhong has not changed his vieard Du and Xu, twocivility, to see what other trick they were going to play?
Xu Kaishan said, “Xiaodi has already prepared a banquet at the local Xiao Taoyuan [little Peach Spring, froentle’s person of virtue and prestige, Old Jing, to acco to do the honor of attending the banquet, it will be Xiaodi’s greatest honor”
Kou Zhong was back to nor honors us like this, how could we dare to have the intention to brush it off?”
