Steps came from outside the door. Looking from the window, Xiao Jinyan saw Li Renjie passing by with several entourages, and he still hugged a woman in his arms, but he was not the one he met in the Shili Pavilion a few days ago.

When passing through the incense shop, the woman suddenly stopped and looked here and said, "Young Master, you gave Ma Qingqing a box of Chana Kami powder yesterday, but you didn't buy it for others. It's obviously a biased person!"

Li Renjie smiled evilly and said, "How come, Little Langduzi, are you jealous?"

A personal guard said, "Ma Qingqing has a spring water jade pot, how can you compare with Miss Ma?"

Li Renjie's face darkened, "Hmm?"

Seeing that the guard said the wrong thing, he kept saying, "I also heard from Niu Dayou."

Another guard said angrily, "Kong Dachun, when did I say such things? Don't spit people with blood!"

The young city lord suddenly laughed.

The two guards were shocked when they saw this. The young city lord had a quirk of behavior. Before each killing, he always showed such a smile on his face and hurriedly fell to the ground, "Young city lord forgive me!"

Li Renjie said, "Go to the Lanxianglou. Before noon, you will come to see me with Ma Qingqing's head, otherwise you will come to see me with your own head." The two of them were shocked, but they did not dare to act on their own and left.

Jiang Xian'er hooked Li Renjie's neck, "Young City Lord, why bother being angry about that bitch? He is not inferior to her. There is a fragrance shop in front of him. You should buy it for him!"

Li Renjie pinched her chin and said, "Buy, even if you want the stars in the sky, I will buy it for you!"

Jiang Xian'er said, "I don't want the stars in the sky, they can't eat or see them. They are flashy and unreal, so I need the rouge of Chana Kami."

Li Renjie smiled and said, "You are quite realistic."

Surrounded by everyone, Li Renjie pushed open the door of the incense shop.

The shopkeeper has been operating here for many years and has long recognized Li Renjie. He came forward to pay his respects, "Young City Lord, how about you, come and buy fragrant powder with this girl?"

Li Renjie said, "I will still give you another portion of the fragrant powder yesterday!"

Jiang Xian'er said, "I want two!"

The shop is very small and has no back door. Xiao Jinyan has no way to hide, so he lowered his head and was about to walk out. Li Renjie had already recognized him and shouted, "Stop!"

Xiao Jinyan looked up and smiled at him.

"It's really a narrow road for enemies."

“Narrow, very narrow, very narrow.”

A few days ago, Li Renjie suffered a secret loss in his hands, but today he saw Xiao Jinyan again in his territory. When his enemies met, he was extremely jealous and ordered people to surround Xiao Jinyan in the center.

"I sent someone to look for you all these days, but I didn't expect you to come to the door. I saw you sneaking in front of the city lord's mansion. You had a plan at first sight, but you didn't come to the real way?"

Xiao Jinyan spread his hands, "I said I had prepared three hundred barrels of fire thunder and was about to blow up the city lord's mansion. Do you believe it?"

Li Renjie shouted: "This son intends to assassinate the city lord, come and take it down for me!"

Everyone drew their weapons one after another.

A big battle is inevitable, and the one who looks the most embarrassing is the shopkeeper of the incense shop. All his belongings are in this incense shop. If he starts, no matter what the result is, he will be the one who suffers the most.

"Slow down!"

Xiao Jinyan said, "This place is too narrow, it will be inconvenient to kill it later. We will go to the street to fight. Do you dare or don't?"

Li Renjie laughed, "In Yinyang City, as long as I am willing, I can't even fly out." He pushed the woman in his arms, walked up to the long street, and said to Xiao Jinyan who was following him, "Boy, as long as you can escape from this street, I will follow your surname."

Xiao Jinyan waved his hand, "I can't afford to raise an unfilial son like you." He took off his posture and said, "You six of you are together, I'm in a hurry."

Li Renjie said, "Six people? Come together? Are you bullying my city lord's house? " He said to a guard, "Xin Datou, call someone!"

The guard took out a firecracker from his arms, blew the fire, lit the fuse, and was about to throw it out, Xiao Jinyan suddenly shouted to him, "Your name is Xin Datou?" The guard asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I'll ask. By the way, I want to remind you about something."

"What's up?"

Bang!

Xin Datou's firecrackers exploded, screamed, and rolled on the ground with his hands in pain. However, the signal was finally sent out, only a few dozen feet away from the city lord's mansion. In a moment, thirty or forty dragon cavalry guards rushed out of the mansion and came to Li Renjie, "See the young city lord."

Li Renjie said, "This man intends to assassinate me and the city lord, take him down and send him to the heavenly prison." He said to Xiao Jinyan again, "As long as you can escape from this street, I will give you a way out today!"

“What road?”

"Road!"

Xiao Jinyan said, "There is no way to live in the world? If you run away too many times, it will become a road." After that, he jumped and was about to cross the heads of everyone. The dragon cavalry guards held horse lances, about one meter long, raised them one after another, and stabbed them at him.

Li Renjie shouted, "Stop him!"

Xiao Jinyan raised his breath in the air, gently tapped on a dragon cavalry purple helmet, turned back to his original place, reached out to grab Li Renjie. The five guards were prepared, drew their swords and swept them, and slashed at Xiao Jinyan.

Five knives and five different directions locked all Xiao Jinyan's retreat paths.

Xiao Jinyan once again forced his breath, changed his route, and said with a smile, "You are trapped!" He suddenly turned around, jumped onto the roof of the incense shop, and said to Li Renjie with a smile, "Young City Lord, changing your surname is a big deal. You should go back and discuss with your city lord dad!"

After saying that, several people leaped and fled from the long street.

Li Renjie's guards had a few martial arts skills, and dozens of dragon cavalry guards were wearing heavy armor, so they could not pursue them. They could only watch Xiao Jinyan run away. Li Renjie said, "Tell me the order and those who catch this person will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!"

"Abide by the order!"

"Wait!" Li Renjie pondered for a moment and said, "Award a hundred taels of silver!"

In his heart, Xiao Jinyan's life is not worth a thousand taels.

Jiang Xian'er hugged Li Renjie's arm again, "Young City Lord, where is his fragrant powder?"

Bang!

A slap came.

"Your mother-in-law!" After saying that, he returned to the city lord's mansion angrily. He suffered a secret loss twice in succession. Li Renjie couldn't swallow this and was about to ask his father for a private guard.

...

Xiao Jinyan crossed several roofs, crossed two streets, and came to Baihufang.

Qinglongfang lives in noble people, Zhuquefang lives in poor people, Baihufang, and Xuanwufang live mostly civilians and business travelers, the most prosperous. However, the situation is tight now, and rumors of a war coming are circulating in the crowd every now and then. What's more, it was said that the Ming Dynasty's Western Army had fought with the Chu army, which made people in the city panic.

Even so, there are still many people or peddlers who are busy making a living on the long street, and shops are also standing at the door to attract customers. Whether it is a war or peace, no matter what, life must continue and people have to eat, right?

Xiao Jinyan walked to the knife washing bridge on the Chishui River in Baihufang.

A stone tablet was erected at the bridge, with the words "Golden Knife King Washing Stone".

Xiao Jinyan came forward and looked at the inscription carefully to know the origin of the bridge.

When King Jindao was young, he lived in Baihufang and practiced swords in Chishui River every day. He practiced for ten years. After Li Qiuyi finished practicing every day, he would wash his swords on a stone under the bridge. Now there are fences around this stone, and stone tablets are erected. There are thousands of names engraved behind it.

After inquiring, Xiao Jinyan learned that there was a custom in Yinyang City that men who practice swords in the city would come here to wash their knives after ten years of military service and carve their names on stone tablets. Over time, the bridge was renamed the Sword Cleaning Bridge.

"Xiao Jinyan!"

A familiar woman's voice came from behind.

It is Dongfang Nuannuan.

Xiao Jinyan didn't look back and said coldly, "Today, I wonder what Miss Dongfang wants to harm me?"

Xiao Jinyan was originally an open-minded person. Since he met in Yangzhou, he has been used or deceived by Dongfang Nuannuan again and again, and even almost lost his life. He doesn't like this feeling, and even feels a little disgusted.

Dongfang Nuannuan was stunned when she heard this, came to Xiao Jinyan, sighed, and said, "Brother Xiao, in your heart, is Nuannuan so unbearable?"

"Miss Oriental is a saint of the Divine Cult, so she is naturally respected by thousands of people. I wonder what is the price to do when I look for Mr. Xiao today?"

Dongfang Nuannuan said softly, "I didn't expect you to come to Yinyang. I saw you at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion today, so I followed up and said hello." She saw Xiao Jinyan watching everywhere and said, "Don't worry, I asked the troops of the City Lord's Mansion to retreat."

"I didn't expect that the Lord of Yinyang City also listened to the Saint."

Dongfang Nuannuan showed a smile on her pale cheeks, "They have asked for our God Cult, and I guess this little face is to be given." She stood beside Xiao Jinyan, looked at Chishui River, and said, "Where are your brothers Li Qingcheng and Zhao Langjiang?"

"them……"

Xiao Jinyan suddenly stopped talking.

Dongfang Nuannuan is very scheming, and she always acts when speaking and doing things. She will be used by her if she is not careful. Especially when Changjiang saw her, Xiao Jinyan felt that she seemed to have changed her own. Xiao Jinyan cheered up and changed the topic, "How is your cold poison?"

Dongfang Nuannuan reached out and put her hair on her forehead, and smiled and said, "You still care about others."

Although such a woman knows that she is scheming and loves to plot, when she gets along with her, she always has thousands of charms in every move, every frown, smile, and every move. Even if she is dissatisfied, it is difficult for her to feel disgusted.

Xiao Jinyan didn't say anything.

Dongfang Nuannuan said again, "My father found an ancient technique to control the cold poison in his body, and Nuannuan's life is not in trouble for the time being." She seemed unwilling to mention this matter and asked again, "Brother Xiao, aren't you living with Yuwen Tianlu?"

“So what?”

Dongfang Nuannuan said, "I advise you to keep a distance from him."

"Mr. Xiao has his own principles when doing things and making friends, and the Oriental Girl doesn't have to bother."

Dongfang Nuannuan sighed, "So you still hold a grudge against me."

Xiao Jinyan said, "It's all over."

The two came to the knife washing bridge.

Dongfang Nuannuan has a peerless posture. For some reason, pedestrians on the road looked at her and hid far away, approaching the other side of the bridge, speeding up their pace.
