C191 Xunyang Building

The Xunyang River was a hundred miles long, and the river water was flowing slowly. Many fishermen pointed to the carp in the river to feed their families, and in a shallow place, there was a dock. It was also the only pier in Xunyang River. There were a few fishing boats docked at the pier. A few fishermen were cooking fish in a cold place on the shore.

Xuan Zhengchen came forward and bowed. "May I ask the boatmen where Xu Liangjiu and Great Warrior Xu are now?"

The fishermen looked at Xuan Zhengchen and the others. They saw him holding a sword and knife. Knowing that he was from the pugilistic world, Tunnel asked, "Why are you looking for us at the pier?"

Xuan Zhengchen said happily, "This is Hero Xu's pier?"

"Of course!"

One of the burly men said, "I know you are people of the Jianghu, there is nothing good about finding him. Even so, I will still tell you where we are at the pier, because he once said. . . Anyone who comes to find him must know where he is! " After a pause, he said, "In another two hours, he will be here. Just wait here! "

Meng Chong said to Duan Tianya, "These people won't lie to us, right?"

Duan Tianya said in a low voice, "It doesn't matter if we wait for two hours. We can't rush it!"

Waiting was torture in itself. Xuan Zhengchen simply bought some silver taels and bought all the fish in the fish cabin. He also bought some wine from the fish cabin. The group of people imitated the fisherman and set up a fire. They cooked fresh carp and drank the wine they made. All of a sudden, the dull waiting became a beautiful thing.

What the fisherman said was indeed true. After two hours, A fishing boat appeared in Xunyang River. The boatman waved the boat with all his might. There was a man standing at the bow of the boat. He was not tall. His upper body was naked, and due to the perennial exposure to the sun, His skin was dark with a hint of purple, which could be seen through his attire. He was no different from an ordinary fisherman, but the harpoon in his hand was extremely eye-catching.

The harpoon was ten feet long and was divided into two teeth. There were hooks on the head of the harpoon. This way, after the harpoon was placed on the fish, it would not be able to escape. When the harpoon was placed on the fish's body, it would be the same when it was placed on a human's body.

Meng Chong stood up and said. "Look at the fork in his hand. I can tell that he is Xu Liangjiu. "

Xuan Zhengchen nodded and said. "That's right. He is the Xu Liangjiu who has not shown himself in the martial world for a long time. People always say that one foot is in the martial world, and the other foot is in the river. They are talking about him. " After saying that, he waved at the people at the bow of the ship and shouted, "Hero Xu, the Nine Tribulations Sword Arts has come to pay a visit. "

Xu Liangjiu, who was at the bow of the ship, heard him and looked towards the shore. He gestured for the boatman to come closer. When he was close to the shore, Xu Liangjiu jumped up and stood in front of Xuan Zhengchen. He cupped his fists and said, "Hero Xuan, it's a pleasure to meet you. May I know what brings you here?"

Xuan Zhengchen gestured and said, "Why don't we eat and chat?" He raised his hand and pointed at the cooked fish, but he did not expect Xu Liangjiu to say, "The name of the Nine Tribulations Sword Arts, how can it be good to build a stove and drink by the side of the road? Why not go to my Xunyang Restaurant and have a few drinks?"

"Xunyang House?"

Seeing that Xuan Zhengchen was somewhat puzzled, Xu Liangjiu explained. "This little brother opened a Xunyang Building three miles away for the customers coming and going to enjoy. At the same time, it can be considered to have a business. "

Since that was the case, the group followed Xu Liangjiu to Xunyang House. As they walked, Xuan Zhengchen introduced them one by one. Xu Liangjiu had long known Hou Jian and Xiao Chen's names, but they had never met before. As for the others, he didn't recognize them at all. However, when it came to Duan Tianya, Xu Liangjiu sized him up from head to toe. He wanted to say something, but when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them back.

Originally, he thought that there wouldn't be any pleasant surprises in the countryside, but he never thought that Xunyang Building would have an unusual style. The two floors of the building could be said to be ingenious, and the hollow carving was especially exquisite. One could tell that it came from a famous craftsman at first glance. The people who came to drink here were also endless, mostly aiming to taste the fresh carp.

Xu Liangjiu led everyone to the second floor. After settling down the people Xuan Zhengchen had brought, he led the rest to a stairway in the southeast corner and said, "Please!"

Xuan Zhengchen looked up. It turned out that there was a pavilion hidden here. After going up, his eyes lit up. The place was very spacious, and there was a huge eight immortal table in the middle. Xu Liangjiu said, "I built this place to greet my friends. It's very quiet here, drinking and talking. "

Duan Tianya looked around and said. "Judging from your attire, I can't tell that you are the owner of this place. "

Xu Liangjiu smiled and said, "People in the pugilistic world rely on their weapons. As for what they wear, everyone has different hobbies. Of course, they wear different clothes as well. "

In the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, the table was filled with dishes and wine. An entire pig was placed in the middle, and beside it was an especially large carp. As for the beef and so on, they were all presented on a full plate. Xu Liangjiu raised his hand and said, "I heard that some of you have a special appetite, so you have prepared a lot of wine and meat. Please do as you please!"

Tieniu did not need to give in. He went up and tore off a pig leg and ate it. Xu Liangjiu went straight to the point and said, "Hero Xuan will not come to find me for no reason. If you have something to say, just say it!"

Xuan Zhengchen also said very straightforwardly. "To tell you the truth, I am sorry to disturb you this time, but there is one thing. " So he told the whole story to Xu Liangjiu. After listening to it, Xu Liangjiu said with an expressionless face, "So you want to know if I'm the one who killed Xuan Peng?"

Xuan Zhengchen said, "Yes!"

Suddenly Xu Liangjiu laughed loudly, drank a bowl of wine, and said, "Let's not talk about whether I used a sword or not, but we have to find a reason why I killed Xuan Peng. "

Xuan Zhengchen was speechless. He really couldn't find a reason why Xu Liangjiu killed Xuan Peng. Was it because of money? He already had Xunyang Pavilion, so there was no need to talk about gold and silver. For status? He had already made a name for himself, and Xu Liangjiu had always called himself half a person in the pugilistic world.

The atmosphere of drinking was somewhat heavy, so Duan Tianya simply stood up, picked up his chopsticks and asked, "It's said that those who want to eat fish head first need to seek the master's permission. I wonder if Hero Xu will allow me to eat this delicious fish head?"

Xu Liangjiu picked up a bowl of wine and smiled. "This place does not need to follow the rules of the Yu family. It's up to you. Come, brother, let me give you a bowl. "

Duan Tianya pushed him away and said: "To tell you the truth, I have quit drinking. "

Xu Liangjiu said in surprise, "Not drinking?"

Duan Tianya said, "I used to drink as much as my life. "

"Then why should I quit?"

Duan Tianya explained, "With a family, Madam is not allowed!"

Xu Liangjiu laughed and said, "So this brother has something to fear. "

Duan Tianya smiled faintly and said, "I have three wives. It will be difficult for me not to fear them. "

Xu Liangjiu drank a bowl of wine and wiped his mouth. "I think the three wives must be outstanding beauties. "

Meng Chong joked. "Not only is she beautiful, but she also has good luck with women. "
