Volume 14 Seven Weapons: The Sword of Immortality Chapter 337: Laoshan Dinner with Zixia
"Your clothes are also wet from the rain. Do you want to get in the car too?"
This sentence was said to the person who returned the sword.
But as soon as these words were spoken, Bai Yujing and the man who returned the sword both frowned.
They all seemed to dislike this tone and approach.
The clouds are light and the spring rain is misty.
Raindrops hit the scabbard and the carriage one by one.
In the end, the man who returned the sword nodded slowly and got on the car.
The seats were covered with soft deerskin, and various patterns were embroidered on the four walls.
The car was spacious and comfortable, but the two men felt a little uncomfortable sitting in it.
No matter how spacious the car is, it is suitable for two people, a man and a woman. If there are more people, it will inevitably be a little crowded.
What's more, the extra person is another man.
But the girl seemed not to notice. She seemed to have never encountered anything like this before. She was curious about everything and felt very excited.
That's why whenever they see a gangster, they want to pull him into the car and make him sit properly without any explanation.
"Where were we just now? By the way, you said your name is Bai Yujing."
Bai Yujing said calmly: "Yes."
The girl continued, "There is a white jade palace in the sky, with twelve towers and five cities. The immortal stroked my head and I was blessed with immortality. This is a poem by Li Bai, isn't it?"
Bai Yujing said: "Yes."
He was originally very interested in chatting with this seemingly shy and charming girl, but if there was a man sitting next to her, that would be a different story.
The girl said, "What a coincidence! My name is also taken from his poem."
Bai Yujing said, "Oh? Please tell me more, young lady."
Yuan Zixia chanted in a gentle voice: "I used to be on the East China Sea, eating purple clouds at Laoshan. I personally met Lord Anqi, and ate dates as big as melons. In my middle age, I visited the Emperor of Han, but was not satisfied and returned home. My youthful face thanked the spring glory, and my gray hair showed my life."
"I hope to reach the golden elixir and ascend the cloud chariot with flying steps. I wish to follow the Master to the altar of heaven and sweep the fallen flowers with the immortals at leisure."
"Miss Lao?"
When they were having dinner at Laoshan with Zixia, he guessed that she was Zixia and also thought that her surname was Lao.
"Yuan Zixia."
When Yuan Zixia said her name, her face turned slightly red , as beautiful as a cloud in the evening sky.
"And you, guest, what is your name?"
Yuan Zixia looked at the man who came to return the sword.
The man who returned the sword was silent for a moment, then he spoke.
He also recited poems.
"The mountains are covered with light clouds, the sky is covered with withered grass, and the sound of painted horns cuts off the gate. Let's pause and drink wine together."
"How many old stories of Penglai, looking back in vain in the mist. Outside the setting sun, thousands of crows fly, and flowing water circles the lonely village."
He only recited half of the poem and then stopped. He was not a person who liked to show off.
After listening to it, Yuan Zixia smiled and said, "This is not a poem by the Immortal Poet, but a poem by Qin Shaoyou. I not only like Li Bai, but I also like Qin Shaoyou. But I still don't know what your name is?"
The man who returned the sword said, "You can call me whatever you want."
Yuan Zixia smiled and said, "It turns out that the guest is also a wonderful person."
The man who returned the sword said, "I am not worthy of your excellence. If I were really excellent, I would not have returned the sword for others."
Yuan Zixia said: "Are you here just to return the sword? But the sword was clearly not taken by you."
The man who returned the sword said, "There is one thing that I didn't take, but someone still wants to blame me in the end."
Yuan Zixia asked: "What is it?"
The man who returned the sword said, "Peacock Feather!"
Yuan Zixia covered her mouth, trying not to scream out in surprise: "Could it be the Peacock Feather, which is said to be the best hidden weapon in the world?"
The man who returned the sword said, "It is exactly this thing, but the thing that was lost was just the blueprint for making this thing."
Yuan Zixia didn't care about the , and asked hurriedly, "I heard that the Peacock Feather is peerless and dazzling. Not only can it be used to kill people, but it is also very, very beautiful, very, very beautiful, right?"
Girls’ minds are always attached to the words beautiful and pretty.
The man who returned the sword shook his head.
Yuan Zixia asked, "Isn't it that beautiful?"
The man who returned the sword said, "I don't know. I haven't seen it."
Bai Yujing suddenly spoke.
He wondered, "If even Su Weiyun, the owner of Peacock Villa's life-and-death friend, has never seen him, who else in the world has seen him?"
…
Su Weiyun.
The mountains are covered with light clouds.
Of course, this sentence refers to Su Weiyun. There is no one else in the world with this name.
Yuan Zixia had never been involved in the underworld, so she might not have heard of it, but Bai Yujing must have known about it.
Bai Yujing said, "I am truly honored to have Brother Su return my sword to me."
Su Weiyun said: "Brother Bai, there is no need to be modest. I am blessed to be able to hold the sword of immortality."
Bai Yujing said: "Brother Su, of course you didn't come to me just to return the sword."
Yuan Zixia smiled softly and said, "Maybe he is not coming to see you, but to see me?"
Su Weiyun said, "But I just came here to find Brother Bai. The blueprint of the Peacock Feather is lost. I heard from them that there are not many people in the world who can steal the blueprint, and there are only two people nearby."
Bai Yujing placed the Changsheng Sword across his knees and said with a smile, "Is it you and me?"
Su Weiyun said: "That's exactly right."
Bai Yujing said: "So if you didn't take the blueprint, then it must have been me?"
Su Weiyun said: "I didn't say that."
Bai Yujing asked, "Who said that?"
Su Weiyun said: "It was said by the Red Hair Gang, White Horse Gang, Taihang Swift Blade, and the owner of Wanjin Hall."
"Okay, I understand."
Bai Yujing didn't ask what Su Weiyun wanted to do, nor did he ask what the four major gangs wanted to do. He just sat there quietly and didn't say anything more.
The carriage moved forward with a clattering sound, and after a while, it entered the town.
It was not known whether the coachman did it intentionally or unintentionally, but the carriage stopped directly in front of the door of "Fengyun Inn".
The spring rain is still falling.
It was very lively in front of Fengyun Inn.
A hunchback wearing a tattered felt hat and a torn cotton jacket was taking shelter from the rain under the eaves; under a large fruit tree, a peddler pushing a cart selling lotus root powder was packing up his things, planning to go home after the rain stopped.
At this moment, a constable wearing a red cherry hat and a green soap coat was walking under the tree from the other side, apparently wanting to buy a bowl of lotus root powder.
Su Weiyun could tell at a glance that they were none other than White Horse Zhang San, Zhao Yidao, and one of the Nine Red-haired Monsters in disguise.
——They are pretending to be passers-by here. Are they waiting for Su Weiyun to find Bai Yujing, and then join forces to kill him together and seize the Peacock Feather blueprint?
Su Weiyun looked a little unhappy. He thought they were too reckless and unreasonable. They didn't even know whether the drawings were with Bai Yujing, but they had already set a trap for him.
Three men in blue tights were sitting in the lobby of the inn, staring at the door with burning eyes, as if they were waiting for someone to come in.
They were the three people who had previously taken away the Sword of Immortality and were later acupunctured by Su Weiyun.
The force Su Weiyun used in acupoint pressing was not strong, so they have now arrived at Fengyun Inn.
Bai Yujing glanced around calmly and suddenly said, "There is an inn here. Miss Yuan, are you interested in having a few drinks with me?"
Yuan Zixia said excitedly: "Okay, I can treat you. You just need to drink with me!"
So the carriage stopped and the three got off.
Bai Yujing and Yuan Zixia walked into Fengyun Inn side by side.
