C422 A Stumbling Block
On the main road leading to Jiangzhou, a carriage was leisurely walking. The carriage did not have a driver, and the driver just let the yellow horse walk on its own.
Passing by a noodle stall, the smell of dried meat noodles was hard to resist. Duan Tianya stuck his head out of the carriage and sniffed, then turned his head and asked, "Let's go and eat a bowl of noodles. "
Huizi had always listened to him. She followed Duan Tianya to the noodle stall.
Duan Tianya asked for two bowls of noodles. When the owner of the noodle stall saw that the two of them were foreigners, he even gave them some pickled vegetables.
Because of the official road, the noodle stall's business was quite good. Every day, there would be an endless stream of people coming here to rest and eat noodles.
Duan Tianya saw an acquaintance at the noodle stall. A man was eating noodles with a young girl. The girl was very active. Obviously, she was not interested in the noodles. She had been arguing about eating chicken feet. This father and daughter were Gongye Kang and Gongye Ling.
Gongye Kang also found it strange when he saw Duan Tianya. Gongye Ling was even happier when she saw Duan Tianya. The father and daughter approached Duan Tianya. Gongye Kang said: "Shouldn't you stay in Jizhou?"
Duan Tianya smiled and said, "It's a long story. "
Gongye Kang said, "It's rare for you to say something that is difficult to explain. "
Duan Tianya said, "I don't have three heads and six arms. I also have emotions. "
Gongye Kang nodded and asked, "Where are you two going?"
Duan Tianya thought for a moment and suddenly said, "I have a request. "
Gongye Kang smiled and said, "When did you and I still be so courteous?"
Duan Tianya said with a serious expression, "Take Huizi to Nameless Island or Japan. "
Gongye Kang was puzzled and asked, "Why don't you escort her personally?"
Duan Tianya smiled and said, "I still have some trivial matters. When everything is settled, I will naturally go and find them. "
Gongye Kang did not like to inquire about other people's private matters either. He was just a little worried. "Huizi will agree to leave your side?"
Duan Tianya said, "Leave this to me. "
Duan Tianya turned around and came in front of Huizi. He said earnestly, "You and Brother Gongye should return to Nameless Island or Japan first. I still have some matters to attend to. "
Huizi blinked a few times and said, "I can stay and help you. "
Duan Tianya pretended to have a dark expression and pretended to be angry. "I will go back and marry you after I finish my matters! If we delay the schedule of the work, who knows when it will become a good thing for you and me. "
When Huizi heard that Duan Tianya wanted to marry her, her face was like a peach blossom. The joy in her heart was overflowing with words. She nodded heavily and said, "Mr Duan, it's a deal. "
Duan Tianya also nodded and said firmly, "It's a deal. "
Gongye Kang drove the carriage away. Huizi and Gongye Ling sat in the carriage. Watching the carriage leave, Duan Tianya suddenly felt a little disappointed. In his heart, he had already accepted Huizi, this kind girl.
Duan Tianya walked alone on the official road. He was like a lonely swordsman. Where was Tianya? Where was the road? It was as if he had returned to the him from many years ago.
When they were about to leave Ji Province City, they saw a group of people lined up neatly on the empty ground outside the city. There were at least a hundred of them, and the one leading them was Ouyang Tongyu and his son.
Duan Tianya wanted to take a detour, but he was shouted by Ouyang Tongyu. "What's wrong? Are you scared?"
Duan Tianya smiled bitterly and said, "I just don't want to cause trouble for myself. "
Ouyang Tongyu snorted and said, "Stop pretending. You should know the purpose of my trip. "
Duan Tianya said, "It's to kill me. "
Ouyang Tongyu said, "Yes. "
Duan Tianya said, "But I promised others that I would leave Jizhou and not ask about the people and matters of Jizhou. "
Ouyang Tongyu said, "That was your promise, not mine. "
Duan Tianya said, "Don't force me!"
Ouyang Tongyu suddenly laughed and said, "So what? I have waited for this day for too long. "
Duan Tianya said, "What do you want?"
Ouyang Tongyu said, "To bring the Ouyang's Mansion to greater heights. "
Duan Tianya said, "The Ouyang's Mansion of Jizhou has already become famous. Why do you have to do this?"
Ouyang Tongyu coldly snorted and said, "Big brother and third brother do not have great ambitions and live in the Jizhou. Fourth brother is also a free and unfettered prodigal, so he is not interested in the fights in the martial world. So I am the only one who can shoulder such a heavy responsibility. "
Duan Tianya said, "So all of this was planned by you in advance. "
Ouyang Tongyu said with a cold smile. "Of course, I spent a lot of effort to find out your whereabouts. I asked Guang Er to invite you, but you only asked Little Zhuge and Lee Jingyun to go. You didn't show yourself. "
Duan Tianya said, "Senior Ouyang Boyuan, is it your fault? How could you do such a despicable thing!? "
Hearing this, Ouyang Tongyu suddenly flew into a rage and said, "Don't try to mislead the crowd with your words. No matter how vicious I, Ouyang Tongyu, am, I won't kill my own parents. "
"Oh?" In Duan Tianya's heart, he also didn't believe that Ouyang Tongyu would be this crazy.
Ouyang Tongyu slowed down his breath and said, "I don't mind telling you this. My father passed away half a month before his death, but he wasn't killed by anyone. "
Before he could finish, Duan Tianya said first, "It was because the pastry was stuck in his throat that he died of suffocation. "
Ouyang Tongyu smiled. He did not seem surprised that Duan Tianya could say such a thing. He said, It is because the pastry was stuck in his throat that he died of suffocation. " You are right. It seems that Half-immortal Han really lives up to his reputation. "
Duan Tianya was puzzled. "Did no one notice this?"
Ouyang Tongyu said, "Father seldom shows himself. It was me who pretended to be him at night to deceive the servants. "
Duan Tianya said, "So the man in black was also you. "
Ouyang Tongyu said, "Of course it was me. It's just that your martial arts is too high and I can't handle it myself. "
Duan Tianya smiled and said, " What about now?"
Ouyang Tongyu threw his head back and laughed, "Now that all the experts of the Jianghu have arrived in Jizhou, you won't be able to escape even if you have wings. "
Duan Tianya looked around and saw that these hundreds of men were all strong men. Judging from their attitudes, they were definitely not ordinary men. He was alone and weak. If he fought them, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to gain any advantage, because he had seen Aajiu among the crowd. Suddenly, someone behind him laughed and said. "It's unfair to have more people. "
Duan Tianya turned his head and saw that it was Wei Yang and Wei Hu. There was another person following behind them. Duan Tianya couldn't help but feel happy when he saw this person. In the world, if one were to talk about stinky smells, the white crane would be a perfect match for him.
The white crane said with a smile. "I've been looking for a long time, but I didn't expect to meet you in Jizhou. "
Duan Tianya also smiled and said, "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be by Miss Qing Yue's side?"
The white crane laughed. "I came with someone. I thought it was you, but unfortunately, it wasn't. "
