Chapter 9 See and Goodbye
The one who called Chen An was a man dressed in the same way as a gangster.
The man was wearing a simple dress, wearing a coarse cloth dress, and a hat woven from some straw on his head. There were a few broken corners. Half of his face was exposed in front of the hat and his beard was unshaven.
A knife crossed the waist, Chen An glanced a few times, but couldn't see anything. He just stopped and held the hilt with one hand: "Brother, have something to do?"
The man reached out and raised his hat, revealing his deep eyes, with a good appearance, and the temperament of a middle-aged tough guy came to his face.
He stared at Chen An's wrist with his eyes curled up and looked at Chen An's wrist for a few times. After confirming something, he raised his head and looked at Chen An's hat with black gauze. At this time, only half of his side face was revealed, and bowed: "Brother, the jade pendant on his wrist is the object of Lord Liu City?"
Chen An lowered his eyes and saw that what he was carrying on his wrist was indeed the jade pendant tied with a red rope given to him by Liu Ruyan.
Although I don’t know whether the person in front of me is an enemy or a friend, since someone has recognized the origin of this jade pendant, it is obvious that this person has a close relationship with Liu Ruyan.
Chen An nodded and said, "It was given to me by Lord Liu."
The man stared at Chen An with complicated eyes for a while, and sighed: "So that's it, you are the man named Chen An."
"It's me." Chen An only felt that no one in the world knew you. No matter how you went, you could hear his name?
The man looked at him a few more times, and seemed to be confused in his heart, but in the end he didn't ask, just said quietly: "Since that's the case, then there will be nothing wrong. I'll meet again if I have the fate."
After the man finished speaking, he turned around without any delay and left, but Chen An always felt that this guy seemed to have a faint hostility towards him. When he left, his back was a little lonely.
Love rival?
Or something else?
He couldn't figure it out and didn't want to cause trouble. Although the conversation was a bit inexplicable and the purpose was unclear, since it did not occur on the spot, he would ignore it. If he met Liu Ruyan in the future, he would ask.
After silently remembering this person, Chen An started to wander around Anping County aimlessly.
As a result, I didn't find anything interesting or strange. I took a few bites at noon and went back to the inn to get the money. Then I reached the time I agreed with the three brothers Zhang Heng, Li Kui and Lu Ming in the afternoon.
Although it was only one night away, when Chen An came to the restaurant again, he still felt that things had changed. Although people were still the same people and the place was still the same, his mood had indeed changed.
"Brother Chen!" Li Kui had such a good look. While drinking, he saw Chen An dressed in a martial arts world from afar, but he still recognized him.
Chen An walked over, put his hat on the table, and smiled and said, "Can you recognize me?"
"Brother's temperament is conspicuous whenever you throw it away." Li Kui smiled and picked up the wine pot and poured a glass for Chen An. He said with a little apology: "We didn't know you were Chen An last night. If you offend me a little while speaking, please atone for your sins."
Seeing this black face being a little more polite as he spoke, Chen An raised his eyebrows: "Brother, don't laugh at me, how should we get along with each other, I don't have the bad habit of watching the dishes."
"As long as you can chat and be aware of your behavior and affairs, you are a friend, and you don't have to worry about anything."
After Chen An finished speaking, Li Kui was stunned at first, then raised his glass: "It's my fault! Apologize to my brother!"
This black face drank a glass, smashed it, and simply picked up a jar. I saw that my mouth was holding the edge of the wine jar, my throat was gurgling, and a pot of wine slowly covered my face. After drinking, Li Kui burped a long time and grabbed the wine jar with one hand and turned it back, but it didn't leak.
"Good skills!" Chen An smiled and raised his glass, took a drink, and said seriously: "If you have a serious matter tonight, brothers should drink less and eat a few more bites. If the situation is wrong, we may have to run back to Ning'an City first."
Li Kui was about to ask what he could do when he returned to Ning'an City, but his mind changed. He thought of the figure Liu Ruyan. He was convinced by Chen An in capital. He put down the wine jar and said, "Don't worry, brother, although we three others are not considered big names in this world, but facing ordinary masters, we three brothers can fight and leave."
I’m afraid that you will fight when you can, but you will leave when you can’t beat them.
Chen An didn't say much, but Zhang Heng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, just take this sip today. Third brother has a great alcohol tolerance. Such a jar of wine is nothing to him."
"It's the most amazing thing. People say that my stomach is not filled with oil and water, but with wine worms."
Although Li Kui laughed, he still put down his glass of wine, took a few bites hard, and said, "If I want to see Hongyou today, I will probably have to go early. I will talk to the brothers at the city gate. There are quite a few new faces coming from around this morning."
Chen An nodded, remembering the person he saw in the morning. The man obviously knew Liu Ruyan, and he was not an acquaintance who could be related to Liu Ruyan. To his little shrimp, he is a shark.
He frowned slightly and then spread out, always feeling that this journey tonight would be inevitable.
After explaining to the few more, Chen An went to this ancient brothel with a little excitement.
At this time, the sky was about to dim. The sun had not completely disappeared and was hanging far away in the sky, but the Yingchun Tower had become lively.
Several decent dressed servants were smiling at the door, and a half-old woman with a smile on her face at the door, with a smile on her face, but her eyes looked around and the ordinary guests didn't meet her.
Until Chen An and his group arrived.
Uh, or, mainly Chen An.
Even though he put down the black translucent fabric on the hat at this time, covering most of his face, just the nose, mouth, and chin he vaguely saw while walking, he could see four or five percent of his handsomeness.
He was tall and thin, but his skeleton was not small. He was wearing a expensive black knight robe. While walking, the three Li Kui brothers behind him suddenly became servants.
"Yeah, this master, please come in there!"
Seeing that Chen An and his group were about the same target, the old half-old Xu girl, who was still charming, came over with a red handkerchief.
"Come on these masters." The old aunt walked towards Chen An as she spoke. The strong smell of rouge made Chen An instinctively raise his head. The old aunt was also a personal spirit. When she saw him, she stopped approaching, kept a distance from one person, and walked side by side.
"We are Yingchun Building. There are many customers today, and there are not many rooms on the second floor. I wonder if I want to go to the private room or watch it in the lobby on the first floor?"
After the old aunt finished speaking, Li Kui said with a dark face: "How can my young master squeeze in with others to watch the girl!"
"Oh, it's me wrong. Why didn't I figure it out with such a stupid head? Master, please come in!"
The old aunt was not displeased at all, but she smiled a little happier.
While leading Chen An to the second floor, Chen An tried hard to see the situation in Yingchun Building through the gauze in front of him.
Although there were many guests at this time, there were not many. There were eight tables in the lobby on the first floor, and four were already sitting. Three were ordinary people dressed in gentry, but the only one was left, with only a guy who looked very familiar to Chen An.
I only saw the man wearing ragged clothes, with a long knife hanging behind him, and he couldn't take it apart when sitting on the chair, but he just made half of the chair to leave a space for the long knife.
There was a table of dishes on the table, but the vegetarian ones didn't move at all. They just held the chopsticks and grabbed the meat and ate it. There were a few jars of wine under their feet, and the wine glasses in their hands were almost full and poured into their stomachs.
It was the one who stopped Chen An in the morning and shouted for him to stay.
Chen An's expression remained unchanged, and the man seemed to notice someone was looking at him. The two looked at each other through the black gauze of the hat, and the man frowned, and there was a little anger in his eyes except for the accident.
