The lotus lanterns floating in the river are young ladies from wealthy families upstream making wishes for good health for their families, happy love, or for someone to die early.

Plop!

Someone fell into the river.

Water splashed everywhere and everyone exclaimed.

Liu Wanzhi stood behind Wei Jiu with an expressionless face, looking around vigilantly. Qin Huaiyu stared at the lamp vendor in the river with a murderous look on his face. He never expected that this person would dare to suddenly attack Wei Jiu on the Lantern Festival. If he

In a moment's delay, the dagger in his sleeve had already stabbed Wei Jiu in his lower abdomen.

The assassination attempt failed, and the vendor wailed loudly in the biting water, claiming that he was kind enough to send the lanterns. However, the young master of Wei disliked the dirty smell and ordered someone to kick him into the river to clean himself.

"I have an eighty-year-old mother here and a baby to feed. Mr. Wei, please let me go."

The tearful cry of selling his misery earned enough sympathy from the onlookers. Discussions started immediately. Some people kept pointing at Wei Jiu, but that was all. However, some people were curious, and some even saw who this hawker was.

Why did this hawker beg Wei Jiu for mercy when he was being treated by the young master Qin and the eldest son of the Liu family?

Although Wei Jiu has some reputation in Chang'an, due to his status balance, his right to speak is not as good as the two beside him. Young Master Qin's face is angry, but Wei Jiu's face is very calm, which is strange no matter how you look at it.

Some sensible people have already begun to stop their companions who are whispering beside them. It is better not to get involved in this unclear matter at hand.

Qu Qingxuan didn't know what happened, and looked at Wei Jiu with confused eyes. At this time, Wei Jiu had already taken a bamboo pole from the stall and squatted by the river. Liu Wanzhi stood behind him, and he knew

Someone would be harmful to Wei Jiu, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly. It only took ten days from the time I learned about this matter.

The furious Qin Huaiyu wanted to dissuade him, but Wei Jiu shook his head to show that it was okay, squatting on the shore and looking at the vendors in the water.

"You are very good, but you have overlooked one thing. Except for me, these people visit Chang'an Lantern Festival Lantern Festival every year. The vendors selling lanterns will not fail to recognize them. You keep calling me Wei Jiu, who has been in Chang'an for less than half a year.

, but I didn’t kick you into the river, Young Master Qin and Young Master Liu. Of course you can quibble with these, but I won’t let you come up. Do you think you’re angry or not?”

The vendor in the river, whose face was turning purple from the freezing water, gritted his teeth and shouted.

"Wei Wuliang, don't you care about the king's law? You insulted the people and froze me to death in this river. Don't you think there is no king's law in Chang'an?"

"Yes, yes, bullying a vendor is nothing."

"No, Lu Jun beat Li Chongyi violently, but nothing happened to him. Now he is traveling with Cui Mang to Chang'an."

As the vendor roared, the onlookers' comments gradually became louder. Qin Huaiyu turned around and glared. Wei Jiu reached out and patted his calf. With the other hand, he put the bamboo pole into the river and smiled slightly.

"I don't want to embarrass you today, so I will give you two choices. First, I will give you a riddle and you can guess it. If you guess it right, I will let you go ashore. Second, wait for the people from Dali Temple to come again. You and I will go to Dali Temple together and wear Zhou.

That guy doesn’t care about personal relationships, and he wants to catch me out of 10,000 people, choose one?"

"Wei Jiu!"

Qin Huaiyu and Liu Wanzhi spoke at the same time to stop Wei Jiu. Others did not know what the hawker had done, but they could see clearly that it was Wei Jiu who was lying on the ground today.

This time, Wei Jiu shook his head again and smiled lightly, ignoring the comments.

"When I appeared, I destroyed loyalty and tore apart friendships. Everyone hated me but could do nothing about it. Some even loved me deeply. So what am I?"

Since it is the Lantern Festival, and since it started because of lantern riddles, we have to end it with lantern riddles. We agreed to let him go ashore, but did not agree to let him go. The vendor in the water fell into deep thought. This kind of riddle was the first time for him.

It is said that combined with the invasion of the river water, his brain began to slow down.

Wei Jiu is not in a hurry. He is smiling but in his heart he is like an evil ghost imprisoned by iron chains. At this time, the evil ghost is roaring ferociously and constantly devouring reason. Just now, if Liu Wanzhi and Qin Huaiyu were slower for one second

Zhong, today's result will not be like this.

He would not listen to what the onlookers said about him, nor would he care about the consequences after the incident, which was that he almost left this world just now.

As I said, you can die, but you can't die in a daze.

"money!"

The crowd of onlookers made way for a path, and Cui Luo walked slowly with a smile on his face, followed by Lu Sheng, Zheng Jing, and Wang Xinren. The four of them had endless disappointment on their faces, as if they were disappointed as to why Wei Jiu was not dead.

When Wei Jiu appeared in front of the ancient tree, he had already started to watch. With the enemy in front of him, how could he bother to admire the lotus lanterns in the water?

"right."

The crowd was making a move, and Changsun walked through the crowd with a faint smile. He stopped moving forward when he was three battles away from Wei Jiu. Behind him were also his friends, Yuchi Baolin and Gao Xixi.

Wei Jiu turned his head and nodded lightly as a greeting, then glanced at Cui Luo, and continued to look down at the vendors in the water. He was not impatient or impatient, nor did he take the stranger in his eyes. But when he heard the chaotic sounds of the crowd behind him, he

You know, a few other guys are also hiding in the crowd.

Just when I thought about it, a strange voice came.

"Greed."

Zheng Zimo, dressed as a scholar, approached, Zheng Jing quickly lowered his head and did not dare to look, but this time Wei Jiu did not even turn around.

I've seen him before, but I don't know him. I'm upset and won't speak.

"betray."

Cui Mang came and pushed away the few people standing in front of him very arrogantly. The people who wanted to get angry chose to shut up when they saw Lu Jun's strong body. He comforted himself that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years.

Everything that was supposed to come had come. The absence of the two young masters in Guan Luan made Wei Jiu feel a little disappointed. As early as when he was solving the first lantern riddle, Chen Yu had already told Wei Jiu that these people were nearby. If

It would be strange if they didn't show up.

They all know what happened just now, and Wei Jiu's riddle is like a signal, with a simple meaning. If anyone doesn't show up today, then this person was sent by the person who didn't show up.

Wei Jiu sighed and was about to stand up. At this time, Qin Huaiyu beside him coughed and pointed to the other side of the river. Wei Jiu looked up and saw Hou Mo making love to Yu Jin standing on the other side. The former even waved warmly to Wei Jiu.

Everyone who was supposed to come came, no one was missing. Wei Jiu smiled bitterly, waved his bamboo pole and hit the vendors in the water, throwing his head back and laughing.

"Poor, pathetic, you have become an abandoned piece on the chessboard. Just slowly keep the secret in your heart."

After saying that, he turned around and scanned the forces in front of him.

"This person will be sent to Dali Temple. If he dies, then we will fight each other. In order to survive, it is normal for a few people to die, right?"

Cui Luo, Changsun Chong, Zheng Zimo and Cui Mang smiled lightly and nodded.

At this time, there were bursts of exclamations and whistles from the street.
