"I lived in Zhongdu for half a year, and you waited for me outside the city for half a year... It was just a few swords, so what about that?"

The visitor did not answer, and the bearded man was not talking, and immediately picked up his sword and slashed.

The nearly five-foot-long broadsword was swung, and there were iron rings hanging on it. As they collided with each other, they made a cold Dingling clang, which seemed particularly powerful.

When Liu Ruiying heard "Zhongdu" and then heard "sword", she immediately realized that this strong man who looked big and thick was actually a thief...

However, in Zhongdu City, the sword that can be missed by others is probably the Ou Family Sword.

Compared with the secret of the Star Sword, the Ou Family Sword is well known to everyone.

He stopped the chopsticks in his hand and turned around. He could only see the breath. The man flew back and hit a square table not far from Liu Ruiying, smashing the square table into pieces. He was also lying on the ground, panting...

The neck was stammering hard, and the shoulders were still shaking, but he struggled a few more times. His neck suddenly became soft and he lay on the ground with his feet facing the sky, not knowing whether it was death or life.

The shopkeeper had already woken up and hid behind and watched from a distance.

Seeing that his shop was smashed, he didn't care about fear and staggered towards him.

"You...you pay my table!"

The shopkeeper shouted hoarsely.

Liu Ruiying didn't know if he was really stupid or pretending. No matter how he thought it was all about life, he was still feeling sorry for the table in the store.

Money is very valuable, but how can you spend money if you lose your life?

It's true that it's putting the cart before the horse.

In an instant, he realized... the shopkeeper of an ordinary inn had seen such a scene there. He looked at the smashed table in his shop and the person who had only half a life lying on the ground, like a five-thunder strike, kneeling on the ground, his body as if he was sifted, staring blankly at the bearded man up and down, half open his mouth, and never made a sound.

"He's not dead."

Liu Ruiying smiled and shook her head, lifted the shopkeeper with one hand, hooked her feet across a square stool, held him against the wall, and immediately took out a certain amount of silver from her arms and slapped it on the table.

The man who had just fought with the man also walked into the inn and saw that the visitor was wearing a blue-white Dongpo scarf, wearing a white dress, and was spotless. He looked like an Onmyoji than Liu Ruiying.

Just the appearance is crushing.

The only thing that made Liu Ruiying feel was that he had one sleeve that was empty.

Compared with those with good health, disability can always arouse people's sympathy. The two Onmyojis that Liu Ruiying is familiar with, Ye Wei is a lame man, and Xiao Jinkan is a blind man. The so-called "the world is incomplete" is fully reflected in the master and apprentice.

It seems that you have a strong identity and power, and you must always have some other things incompleteness. After all, people are human beings and cannot be perfect, and all the benefits will be taken away.

"You dare to ask me, yes?"

The man walked in, took a bottle of wine from the counter, slowly picked up the wine glass and took a sip, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked coldly.

"The person who walks by."

Liu Ruiying said.

Onmyoji travels around the streets and alleys, collects money, eliminates disasters and gives advice to others. Liu Ruiying didn't think there was any benefit to this outfit before, but when he really left Zhongdu City and walked south, he realized that it was really useful!

The south is not as good as the northwest.

Although there are also divisions of kingdoms, the prince is in charge.

But the real power is in the hands of various aristocratic families. The most prominent one is the Ou family in Xiaweizhou, even the King of Pingnan had to give in to three points.

However, in the Pingnan King Realm, there are at least two or three aristocratic families that can be on par with the Ou family. However, the Ou Family Sword is too famous, so they overwhelmed these two families. Fortunately, these big aristocratic families each have their own business and their own territory. They still have courtesy exchanges during festivals on weekdays, and they look harmonious. The rest of the remaining places are divided by many aristocratic families of all sizes.

It is better to be in charge of county officials now. Where can these aristocrats far away in the King of Pingnan City have a great influence on ordinary people?

The distance cannot be dissolved by the near fire. What is important is the distance. In the eyes of the people, the small officials who look up but do not see them, are even more authoritative than the supreme ruler who will never be able to see in their entire lives.

After all, the small officials have the final say on how much food they have, whether their skin and flesh are hurting, and whether their wives and children cry or not.

Over time, the prince became a symbol, and the backbone of the Pingnan King Realm also relies on these families of all sizes.

"You know him?"

The scholar with scarf and asked, pointing at the man lying underground.

“Don’t know.”

Liu Ruiying shook her head.

"Do you come to this store often?"

Scholar Wuguan asked again.

"It happened to be passing by, the first time."

Liu Ruiying said.

"Since I don't know each other, why should I interfere in my Ou family's affairs for the first time?"

The scholar Qianguan's eyes widened, and he was not polite in his words.

Liu Ruiying was speechless for a moment...

Although he guessed that the big man should have stolen Ou Family Sword, he thought that this scholar Qianguan was actually a member of the Ou family.

Subconsciously touched the Ou family dagger hidden in his robe. After thinking for a while, Liu Ruiying decided to give in to the serpent and then took the opportunity to leave.

There are so many places to eat, I missed this village and had a shop. But there is no doubt that I can avoid one thing, just one thing.

With his relationship with Ou Yaming, the head of the Ou family, and Ou Xiao'e, one of the contemporary sword hearts, he cannot attack the Ou family.

"I have never intervened, at most I just watched the fun."

Liu Ruiying waved her hand and said.

The silver had already been placed on the table and had paid for the wine and food. Liu Ruiying glanced at the barbarian Zhiji sitting opposite him. He quickly stuffed a few pieces of meat into his mouth. He looked at the wine and food that was still left in his eyes. He was very reluctant to leave, but he still stood up with Liu Ruiying.

Before he could stand up completely, Liu Ruiying only felt a white light appear.

After concentrating his mind, a two-foot-three-inch long sword flashed with a cold light, and it was already held in the hands of the scholar who was the scarf-crowned.

Judging from the shape, it is indeed Ou Jiajian.

The position where the sword body connects to the hilt is also engraved with the unique Ou family pattern.

Such patterns are definitely not allowed in the Ou Family Sword, which can be bought and sold. However, this also proves from the side that he is indeed a member of the Ou Family.

Liu Ruiying still didn't want to set off the sword... He was about to speak when he suddenly broke through the air and rang several times.

At some point, a figure suddenly jumped out from the opposite roof. He held an iron-tied bow and pulled it in the direction of him several times. Liu Ruiying thought to himself that it was not good and hurriedly retreated. Just as he was about to avoid it, the bearded man who had been lying in the inn rushed out from next to him, waving the broad sword in his hand, and swayed into a ball of white light, which was impossible to avoid. As a result, Liu Ruiying had not touched the handle of the knife on his waist, but felt a numbness in his chest and his body fell straight down.

At the last moment before landing, his body was held back by a pair of big hands. Looking closely, it was the barbarian Zhiji.

Liu Ruiying didn't know why her body was so dazed. After being helped up, her legs were still weak and her arms could not use strength.

Looking back, it may be that there is something wrong with the wine and food in the inn just now.

On the road facing east in front of the inn, the clouds and geese were startled, and the sound of horse hooves was clattering, and the horses were neighing and whistling.

In a moment, two horses arrived and rode the leader. It seemed that they were running very quickly. Thick white foam spurted out from the corners of the animal's mouth.

He followed him, wearing a blue shirt, carrying a long sword behind him, with a thin face and bright eyes. He looked at him, as if a sharp sword was unsheathed, and his face was full of murderous aura.

"Is this man who stole twenty-seven swords of the Ou family?"

The visitor turned over and dismounted, pointed at Liu Ruiying and said.

"It must be an accomplice!"

Scholar Qiangguan is obviously very familiar with these two people.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, he put a big hat on Liu Ruiying.

Regardless of the evidence, he opened his mouth as if he had made a decision, and forced him to involve him in with a point of view.

"What evidence do you have when I stole the Ou Jiajian?"

Liu Ruiying asked coldly.

These aristocratic families are used to being arrogant and domineering in the Pingnan King Realm. This place is less than a hundred miles away from Zhongdu City, but they can all be so inverted. It is conceivable what kind of situation they will be in the Pingnan King Realm.

Everyone is blind to the king's laws. In their eyes, I am afraid that when Huo Wang comes, it will not affect their self-righteous appearance.

Liu Ruiying became more and more familiar with the two people who came later. Especially the weapons in their hands - broadsword and iron-tied bow.

I have heard that there are two foreign surnames from the Ou family in Pingnan. In the Ou family, except for the fact that they cannot participate in the clan resolution, the rest of the treatment is the same as the head of the family.

The giant sword in the hand of "Yi Jian" was like a bolt from the blue, with raging waves surging, and few people could escape unscathed under one sword.

With all the strength of "Lian Gongzi", an iron-tied bow could be used to shoot out ninety-nine-eighty-one arrows in an instant, as if they were as dense as rain, covering the sky and the sun.

Now, both of these two people, both in appearance and weapons, are very similar to the "one sword" and "also known as Gongzi" in Liu Ruiying's impression.

However, if the Ou family lost twenty-seven swords in one breath, it would be no trivial matter. It is not impossible for these two worshippers to come out in full bloom.

If the Ou Family Sword loses, it is not only a loss of money, but there will be chaos behind it. Each sword is unique. Not to mention robbing, it is enough to use the sword to kill innocent people or do something else.

What's more, some people will use swords to hype, which involves the reputation and interests of the Ou family.

When the Ou Family Sword is not the only one given by the Ou Family, the Ou Family’s particularity no longer exists.

"Can you listen to the next word?"

Liu Ruiying also wanted to defend herself clearly, thinking that these two long-standing worshippers should be reasonable.
To be continued...
