Lanke Chess Edge

Desheng Mansion has always been one of the top-ranked mansions in Jizhou, and the development of the city has been relatively good.

In addition to the good economic and people's livelihood, Desheng Mansion is not a place for fish in the world. It has always been well-known in the world, and its reputation is even higher than Desheng Mansion's official ranking in Jizhou.

Because there is a Luoxia Villa outside the city of Deshengfu, and Luoxia Villa enjoys a high reputation in the martial arts, the Luo family of Deshengfu has gradually become a famous existence in the entire Dazhen martial arts.

As the saying goes, poor culture and rich martial arts, the fresh blood of Luoxia Mountain Villa needs a lot of medicinal materials and various tonics to practice martial arts, and it cannot be guaranteed without sufficient financial resources.

Thanks to the cooperation with the powerful Wei family, the Luo family has also been thriving economically in recent years, and has not hindered the status of the martial arts.

Among the most prosperous streets in Desheng Prefecture, there is also the property of Luoxia Villa.

March and April in Yangchun are the best season for flowers, and it is also the season when merchants from all walks of life who have been quiet for a long time in winter start to become active again.

On this day, the street market in Desheng Mansion was extremely lively. The weather was good and several famous caravans arrived, so many people in the city came out to catch the market.

The newly arrived rouge powder, various silk fabrics from Wanzhou, medicinal materials from Jinzhou, and even leather from surrounding counties and towns...

All kinds of novelty and interesting products are in sufficient supply, and all of them are placed in the most conspicuous positions in street shops and stalls.

The sun is shining brightly today, and the city is so lively. Some people in Luoxia Villa couldn't bear it anymore and came to the Fucheng for a stroll. They like this kind of street market the most, and among them is Luo Ningshuang, who is nearly forty years old.

As the closest one among the Nine Young Heroes back then, Lu Shanjun was of course also the first to find Luo Ningshuang.

A carriage slowly drove into Desheng Mansion. Two children, one on the left and one on the right, occupied the opening of the curtain, looking curiously at the lively scene outside.

"Mother, mother, that person over there is still wearing such a thick animal skin, is he particularly afraid of the cold?"

"Mom, look over there, there's a man with a bald head..."

"Mother, there's me here, and me here. There's a guy over there who stabs his own neck with a spear. He's so powerful. Even if the spear bends his neck, it's fine. He must be very good at martial arts!"

"Hey, it would be great if brother could come together..."

A child said something suddenly a little disappointed.

Luo Ningshuang in the car also smiled and explained.

"A few days ago when you were teaching martial arts, your brother was reprimanded by your uncle and punished him not to leave Luoxia Mountain for a month, but we can bring him some delicious food back."

"Yeah!" "Yes, I want to bring a roast chicken to my brother, hahaha..."

Luo Ningshuang smiled and shook her head, gently stroking her slightly swollen belly again. She has been pregnant twice in these years. The eldest son has reached the age of learning martial arts diligently, and the two twins are only seven years old. Frolicking in the car, but she still desperately wants a daughter.

"Call..."

As the coachman tightened the reins, the speed of the carriage slowed down, and soon stopped in front of a large shop.

"Miss, we're here!"

"Okay, stop fighting, you two, we're getting off the bus."

"Oh~~" "Get out of the car and ask Dad for pocket money to buy candied haws!"

The two children frolicked and got out of the car, while the coachman waited all the time. When Luo Ningshuang came out, he reached out to help her get out of the car.

Although she is nearly forty years old, Luo Ningshuang has a foundation in martial arts, and with proper maintenance, she still has delicate skin and tender flesh.

The store is a large grocery store that sells oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and rice and grain tools. It is also the property of Luoxia Villa, and it is managed by Luo Ningshuang's husband-in-law.

"Ma'am, why are you here? You can raise your baby at home with peace of mind!"

A man with a beautiful beard and two shop assistants came out quickly. Judging from his pace, this man was also a trainer.

"father!"

"Sir."

The two children spoke out almost at the same time as his mother, which made the man laugh. Although they are married, they are living well in Luoxia Mountain Villa. The lovely wife and heirs and life are also comfortable, so there is nothing extravagant to ask for.

Luo Ningshuang held her husband's hand together, and was about to speak, but suddenly felt a strange feeling, and turned her head to look inside the shop.

There were a few people buying rice, a woman was picking out bamboo baskets, and a gentleman in a green shirt and white hairpin was looking at some crispy pastries. The strange feeling was gone again.

"Ma'am, what are you looking at?"

Luo Ningshuang shook her head, thinking that it might be an illusion just now.

"It's nothing. I heard that the city is busy today. We're going to go for a walk in the city. Can you go?"

The man frowned and looked inside the store, finally shook his head and said.

"No, a large caravan from the Wei family will come back later, and there are some important goods that I want to see in person. How about this? I'll send someone to go with you and order a small sedan chair."

Luo Ningshuang wasn't just messing around, she refused the sedan chair, and just said that she would go with the children.

After leaving the shop, the two children became more active, and the two servants who followed seemed to be struggling to look after them, while Luo Ningshuang also looked left and right, looked at rouge, gouache, and silk cloth, and passed by blacksmiths and other places. Didn't look at any weapons at all.

Lu Shanjun followed for a long time, narrowing his eyes at the plump and charming woman in front of him.

‘It’s true that I have lived the life of a husband and a child, but I was determined to be a hero at the beginning, hehe, to a certain extent, this is also a breach of contract, right? '

Lu Shanjun smiled, this sentence in his heart was at most a self-deprecating joke, not so mad that he was dissatisfied with a woman who married and had children.

However, the covenant back then was of great significance to Lu Shanjun, and he would not leave so easily. He walked closer to Luo Ningshuang, restrained his demonic energy, and operated his eyes with faint mana.

In a trance, it seemed that a pair of narrow, long and energetic giant eyes glanced at Luo Ningshuang.

Apart from anger and fetal qi, there is no evil spirit, but some necessary temptations cannot be avoided, Lu Shanjun does not want the first person he finds to end up so easily.

Thinking of this Lu Shanjun glanced around and quickly found the target. A little far away, there was a seemingly ordinary man. Every time someone passed by, he would take out a money bag from the other person. Or something else of value.

Moreover, this person obviously possesses martial arts, after he succeeds in one attack, he can easily open several positions in a few steps, but it seems easy and natural.

‘Hehe, it’s you! '

Lu Shanjun showed a smile on his face, turned around and walked towards the man, because his clothes were exquisite, the white hairpin on his head was outstanding, and his steps were frivolous, so he was caught by the man right away.

The man saw Lu Shanjun, a gentleman in green shirt, in the crowd, and smiled in his heart, thinking that he was a fat sheep, so he approached him in a few steps.

Seemingly passing by casually, taking advantage of the gap of passing, one hand has quickly moved towards a bag in the shape of a kit on Lu Shanjun's waist.

It's just that the moment the hand touched it, the bag melted into smoke and disappeared. The moment the man was stunned, he met a pair of long and narrow amber eyes.

"Gudong..."

The heart beat suddenly, became dazed for a moment, and became clear again in the next moment, and Lu Shanjun had already passed by at this moment.

The man shook his head, not remembering what just happened.

Continue to walk forward quickly, suddenly, like a ghost, he rushed towards an old man with a sallow face, snatched a money bag from his arms and walked forward, many people around him saw this scene .

The old man was also taken aback for a moment, realizing that he had been robbed of his money in the street, and immediately rushed up to grab the man.

"You! Steal money! Give it back to me, give it back to me! This is my son's life-saving money, give it back to me!"

"Why? When did I steal your money?"

The man shook his head and pushed the old man away angrily.

The latter was pushed to the side of the booth and let out an "Ouch", and many people gathered around and pointed at the man.

"It's him, I saw it just now!" "Yes, he obviously robbed it."

"Report to the official, report to the official, you can't let this person run away!"

The management of Desheng Mansion is not bad, and the people are not indifferent. Some people went to help the old man, while some people spontaneously wanted to surround the man.

'Oops, what stupid thing did I just do? No, flash! '

"Get out of the way, whoever blocks me, I will punch him to death!"

The man made a gesture of his fist and slapped the man in front of him away. The man was beaten back a few steps and fell to the ground coughing.

"This man knows martial arts!" "Everyone be careful."

"Where is the official post, where is the official post?" "If you hit someone, he will run away!"

A little far away, Luo Ningshuang also saw this scene, clenched her hands tightly, but hesitated to make a move while touching her stomach.

"Hey... we are all ordinary people. It seems that the old man's hard-earned money has been robbed and there is nowhere to find it. This man knows martial arts. It will be difficult to catch him after he escapes. It's a pity that those heroes of the rivers and lakes are only in rumors." Zhongxing is a chivalrous hero, but I can't see it now!"

A voice sighed.

"mother……"

The boy looked at Luo Ningshuang, and called out weakly. Luo Ningshuang looked at the two children and then looked not far away, narrowing his eyes, and told the two servants who were just ordinary people.

"Take care of them!"

After finishing speaking, he directly stepped on the Luoying step, dodged the surrounding pedestrians again and again, jumped up and jumped into the crowd over there, and grabbed the shoulder of the man who was about to escape.

"stop!"

"court death!"

The man thought it was the ignorant man meddling in his business, and when he turned his head, he punched the man hard with his elbow, but Luo Ningshuang stopped him and punched the man on the back.

"boom……"

Under the pain, the man knew that the person who came was capable of martial arts. Although he saw clearly that it was a woman, he didn't dare to keep his hand, and immediately attacked Luo Ningshuang.

"Crack", "crack", "bang", "crack", "boom"...

A booth collapsed, a wooden stool was kicked into pieces, and the onlookers dodged like flying dogs.

"Ouch!" "Get away..."

"Be careful!"

...

The two fought each other extremely quickly, in the eyes of ordinary people, they just staggered their hands and feet and switched quickly.

But in the end Luo Ningshuang had a better foundation. Although her martial arts had regressed a lot, she still managed to trip the opponent after more than thirty moves and hit her in the neck with a knife in one hand.

"Cough, cough cough uh ho...cough cough..."

The man hugged his neck and coughed on the ground, looking extremely uncomfortable.

"Get out of the way, where is the thief, where is the thief?"

A patrolling officer arrived, pushed the crowd away, and put the knife on the neck of the man on the ground under the guidance of others.

"Okay!" "The thief is caught."

"Great, tie this guy up!"

"Hey, where was that heroine just now?"

"Yeah, it was still there just now, but it disappeared all of a sudden..."

At this moment, Luo Ningshuang's face was cold, and she had already left the crowd with a little panting. When she reached a sparsely populated place outside, she covered her stomach and covered her face with cold sweat.

The members of the Luo family who squeezed through the crowd and saw this scene were taken aback, and hurried over to help.

"Miss! Miss, are you okay?"

"Mom!" "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

"Miss, let's go back quickly!"

Luo Ningshuang calmed down and waved her hand.

"No, no more big moves, find a place, sit, sit!"

"There's a teahouse over there, Miss Fu, go and have a seat." "Let's go!"

A group of people walked slowly in front, carefully supporting Luo Ningshuang, who seemed exhausted for a short while, to the same teahouse.

Lu Shanjun looked at the crowd that was still surrounded, and continued to slowly follow Luo Ningshuang and his party.

In the teahouse ahead, the storyteller had just finished speaking a passage, drank a sip of tea and went to the latrine at the back.

At this moment, Ji Yuan, who had already returned to Dazhen, was standing in the aisle behind the teahouse, reaching out his hand to stop the storyteller who came back from the hut.

"Uh, may I ask who you are?"

Seeing this well-mannered man in white shirt stop him, the storyteller asked suspiciously.

Ji Yuan bowed his hands and saluted, then asked with a smile.

"I don't know if you know a book about nine heroes who went to Ning'an County to kill tigers about twenty years ago?"

"Oh, you're talking about the Legend of the Nine Heroes of Fighting the Tiger. That was twenty years ago? Of course I know that."

"It's just right. I'll ask my husband to tell you this story later. Please accept it, sir!"

As he said, Ji Yuan took out two treasures from his sleeve and handed them to the storyteller, who took them with a smile.

"It's easy to say!"

Anyway, the previous story is over, and there is always a new one to tell. It is good to have someone order it, to earn more money and to be a favor, but when I looked up, the white-shirted gentleman who gave the money disappeared.
