Tongbao Bank, one of the top three banks in the Ming Dynasty, was born in Nanjing.

Early in the morning, Li Shi took Liu Tong's bills to the main office of Tongbao Bank, but what he saw was a notice saying "Closed for two days, accounts will be reviewed."

After chatting with the clerk at the door, he realized that he happened to be on the monthly "accounting day", and Li also saw a sign outside the bank that read "No Weapons Allowed."

There were also four or five well-dressed men at the entrance of the bank, wearing belt knives and iron rulers. These were probably the bank's "security guards."

Li was very helpless when he didn't get the money. He got up early today and walked across half of Nanjing without even eating breakfast.

So Li Shi decisively chose the noodle stall between the porridge shop and the noodle stall next to the bank. There were not many people at the noodle stall, so Li Shi found an unoccupied table and sat down, with his sword bag on the table.

"Objectively, what kind of noodles do you want? We have some noodles here, eggs..." The boss was obviously stunned when he saw the hilt of the sword exposed in the sword bag.

"Just a bowl of plain noodles, boss!" Li Shi responded with a smile and hid the sword, "Add two poached eggs."

"Okay, a bowl of plain noodles and two poached eggs." The boss said, returning to the stove and cooking the noodles.

This noodle stall is not big, and the boss and his wife are busy at work. The boss cooks the noodles, and the wife clears the dishes. The couple looks young.

After a while, a steaming bowl of plain noodles was served. At this time, Li Shi suddenly realized, why was he eating noodles again?

These days, whenever Li sees a noodle shop or noodle stall, he will order a bowl of noodles. One of the three masters of the Black Stone Organization, Lei Bin, who is good at using flying needles, hides his identity as a small noodle shop owner.

Li Shi originally wanted to try his luck to see if he could hit Lei Bin, but yesterday he met Master Jianchi and found that he didn't look like the one in the movie at all. Nor did Lei Bin, Xiao Yu, or Zhang Asheng look like the one in the movie.

But when it comes, eat it. To be honest, this noodle smells pretty good.

After taking two bites, Li felt that the plain noodles at this small noodle stall tasted really good. It was the best noodles he had eaten in the past few days, especially the noodles were very chewy.

"Boss, you've done a great job here."

The noodle stall owner looked to be in his thirties, with an honest face and a mustache. He was very happy to hear Li Shi's compliment, "Thank you for the objective compliment."

"Especially the noodles, they are very chewy. What technology was used to make them?"

"What? What's the subject?"

"Oh, what's the secret recipe? I heard that people in Gansu add straw ash to the noodles, and the noodles they make are long and chewy." "Oh, straw ash, what is that?" The boss heard that they were making noodles.

He immediately sat down opposite Li Shi and even forgot about the long sword on the table.

"The guest officer's accent sounded like someone from Fujian. How could he know the face of Gansu?"

"Well, I'm from Fujian, and my friend in Gansu told me about this fluffy grass ash." Li happened to watch a food documentary, so he communicated with the owner of this noodle stall.

"Hearing what you said makes me want to go to Gansu." The noodle stall owner listened to Li Shi's boast with a look of fascination on his face, "I made these noodles last night and dried them all night.

It will be much chewier when cooked the next day.”

"However, my secret recipe is not stable yet. Sometimes it is too dry and sometimes it is too wet. It is difficult to master."

"It's okay, practice makes perfect!" Li Shi thought to himself, will I let Lanzhou Beef Noodles be invented in advance?

When it came time to finally settle the bill, the boss was still unwilling to accept Li Shi's money, so he pushed back. Li Shi was a martial arts practitioner, so how could the boss resist.

Li came out of the noodle shop and walked through half of Nanjing to the original wine shop.

I forgot to mention that this wine shop is called "Gong Xi Fa Cai". After all, who in the world doesn't want to get rich? The owner of this wine shop is really a wonderful person.

Entering "Gong Xi Fa Cai" again, everyone looked at Li Shi with much kinder eyes. This was also thanks to the four big men with short guns who promoted Li Shi.

Li Shi did not kill anyone at that time, what he wanted was to let these four people publicize for him.

Although the four gun-wielding men were not good at it, their ambush and coordination tactics would make even a third-rate master peel off his skin when encountering an immortal. However, Li Shi could easily defeat the four of them. His strength is self-evident.

.

All of a sudden this group of desperadoes knew that there was a ruthless character coming. She looked like a big girl, but her sword skills were fast and ruthless.

Li didn't order any dishes, but went directly to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, do you have any missions in Nanjing? It's faster to get the reward money."

Li Shi sighed in his heart, even though brother, well, even though I have the unparalleled magic power of "Evil-Repelling Sword Technique", I have no choice but to sell my labor force to make some money.

The shopkeeper looked at Li Shi and said with a smile: "There happens to be one right now."

"There is a magic sword gate three streets away. The owner of the gate is nicknamed Kuai Dao Guan Wu. A month ago, he had a martial arts competition with someone. He agreed to a good point but ended up ruthlessly cutting off the other person's arm. Although the man was rescued,

The rest of my life will be considered useless."

"A certain chivalrous man in the world couldn't stand Guan Wu's evil deeds. He offered a reward of two thousand taels of silver to take Guan Wu's right arm. The reward is in the store. The young knight only needs to take the sharp knife from General Guan Wu's right hand.

Come and confirm that it is correct, and you can take away the silver reward immediately."

"Kui Dao Guan Wu has been famous for about 10 years. It is said that he is expected to break through to the first-class master." The shopkeeper emphasized, "The evaluation of him in the world is: the sword is fast and the man is dead."

The price of two thousand taels of silver for the arm of a near-first-class master is indeed pitiful. No wonder no one has accepted it for a month. If you can beat it, you don't need these two thousand taels, but if you can't beat it, will you die?

Needless to say, the "chivalrous man" who offered the reward must be the one whose hand was chopped off.

"I know." Li Shi and the shopkeeper confirmed the address of Kuai Dao Guan Wu and then left the wine shop.

Everyone heard the conversation between Li and the shopkeeper, and everyone speculated whether this handsome boy would go to Kuai Dao Guan Wu. Kuai Sword versus Kuai Dao, they were still looking forward to it.

Some people said that the boy must have given up on the challenge.

Some people say that although the sword is fast, he is too young and lacks experience. The sword is old and smooth and must be better.

Some people even "helped" Li Shi with their companions and came up with the idea that they should sneak into the Divine Sword Gate at night for a sneak attack. However, someone immediately retorted that several disciples of Guan Wu were not weak in martial arts. If the sneak attack failed and they were surrounded, they would definitely die.

Everyone was chatting and laughing, and even sold a few more bottles of wine. Time passed quickly, but everyone's enthusiasm still did not subside. "Gong Xi Fa Cai" has not been so lively for a long time.

"Shopkeeper, the reward is just a banknote, right?"

At a table near the counter, a man carrying an iron whip suddenly heard a clear voice and subconsciously turned to look at the counter.

Then I discovered that the Kuai Jian boy who had left not long ago was standing in front of the counter, smiling and greeting the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper, who had always been calm and calm, was actually a little dazed, looking at the young man in front of him with wide eyes.

On the counter between the two of them, there was an oilcloth spread out. On the oilcloth was a right arm, holding a thin and narrow long knife in his strong and strong hand!

"How long has he been gone?"

A man touched the teapot on the table and said, "It won't take more than a quarter of an hour."
