Chapter 148: A Rare Tranquility
Ji Qingliang knew that Hua Duxiu's brain circuit was strange, and he often made surprising words, but he didn't bother to care, so he turned around and went downstairs.
Hua Duxiu stretched out and got up to wash.
When she came downstairs, Hua Duxiu found that there were more diners than yesterday.
The old man of the purple hat family, Ji Chudai, beckoned: "Xiu'er, come here." ”
Hua Duxiu walked over as she said and sat down beside the old man.
In front of him is a bowl of milky, hot freshly squeezed soy milk, a large plate of fried dough sticks, a large plate of meat buns, and a plate of small pickles.
The old man in the purple hat asked with ulterior motives: "Xiu'er, have you found anything?"
Hua Duxiu was stunned: "What?"
I wiped it and asked me directly?
Am I going to talk about it? Yesterday was really inconvenient to talk about.
The old man smiled and said, "There are more people here." ”
Hua Duxiu rolled her eyes: "Grandpa Zi, you are so bad." ”
The old man smiled: "What a mess." Last night, I discussed with Senior Brother that we had sent too many second-generation disciples out, and there was a limit to the number of people allowed to enter the Sand City, so we decided to let Ji Wei bring some people back today. ”
Hua Duxiu said: "Okay, you are free." ”
The old man said: "There are fewer people going back, and I am afraid that it will be unsafe on the road, so Ji Wei will bring back forty people, including several teachers and nephews who were injured yesterday." ”
Hua Duxiu was surprised: "Huh, so much?"
The old man nodded: "In this way, we still have about twenty people, in fact, there are quite a few." But for the sake of safety, we decided to go with the two friendly sects of Hundred Sparrows, so that everyone could get together and take care of each other. ”
The people of these two sects specially came to the inn to have breakfast with Ji Zong and the people of the Leopard King Sect, which can be regarded as a gathering.
Hua Duxiu said: "No wonder I think there are too many people, grandpa, you are a ruthless thief, and you still know the truth of gathering sand into mounds, is it inspired by my one-handed breaking of branches yesterday?"
The old man smiled: "You said yes, right?" ”
In general, there are seventy or eighty people gathered on the first floor of the inn for breakfast.
Of course, this includes more than ten people from the Leopard King Gate.
After chatting a few words, Young Master Hua was half-full, got up and came behind Bao Yibao.
The Bao clan ate at two tables, and the leader Bao Qinggang sat and chatted with Ji Xuandai and the leaders of the two sects of Baique City at another table.
Bao Yibao frowned, still sitting there straight, ignoring the person behind him.
Hua Duxiu shouted lightly: "It's really a strong man to lock the man and kill!"
Then he hooked his elbow around Bao Yibao's neck.
Everyone in the Bao family looked at Hua Duxiu like a neuropath.
Bao Yibao's neck was hooked, and he couldn't continue to eat, so he had to say coldly:
"Hua Duxiu, what tricks are you going to do? ”
Hua Duxiu let go of her arm and said with a smile:
"No, no, I woke up refreshed in the morning, and I was very happy to see a leopard master and nephew, just to say hello. ”
"Senior nephew, did I teach you that trick just now, did you learn it? That is a unique knowledge that our Ji Zong does not pass on, you have to deeply understand it and strengthen your study, you know?"
Bao Yibao snorted lightly: "I also have a trick here, do you want to learn it?"
Hua Duxiu slowly approached Bao Yibao's ear and whispered, "Oh, is it the stunt of the Iron King Temple?"
Bao Yibao's face changed slightly.
He glanced at Hua Duxiu: "I can do a lot, you Hua family swordsmanship, I will also have a little, do you want to find a chance to learn?"
Hua Duxiu said: "Don't worry, there are many opportunities in the martial arts conference." Come, nephew, add some chili oil, what's so good about sweet soy milk, spicy soy milk is delicious. ”
Hua Duxiu said and glanced at the small bowl of chili oil on the table, and smiled evilly.
Bao Yibao said coldly: "My taste is light, and the chili oil is too greasy, you can eat it yourself." ”
Hua Duxiu patted Bao Yibao on the shoulder again and said, "It's better to be light, it's better to be light." The taste can't be too heavy, otherwise the nephew and daughter-in-law won't be able to bear it. ”
Bao Yibao said angrily: "Can you get away from me!"
Obviously he was angry, but he didn't want to make too much noise, after all, there were four sects eating in the hall, and everyone was mixed up and wanted to be face-saving.
It's just that this shameless Hua Duxiu has repeatedly provoked his bottom line, you say that you are angry or not.
The two whispered, whether it was the disciples of the Bao clan or the disciples of Ji Zong, they all looked at them quietly.
There is no way, Young Master Hua's reputation for being cunning has gradually spread, and his strength is unfathomable, and whatever he does is the focus of everyone's eyes.
After eating and drinking, while the morning sun was not too scorching, the disciples of the four major sects set off together.
Seventy or eighty people galloped on horseback, and the momentum was magnificent, and the merchants on the road were so frightened that they avoided the side, looking at this team full of strength in surprise.
The spies who were ambushed in and around the city immediately delivered their own messages.
Seventy or eighty people acted together, and if they wanted to intercept them on the road, I was afraid that it would be impossible.
Unless the military is used.
In Mobei, this is even more unlikely.
Rushing for several days in a row, every night, Ji Chudai would pull Hua Duxiu or chat, or look at the sword, or play chess, etc., in short, never let Hua Duxiu have the opportunity to run out by himself.
Hua Duxiu didn't want to go out.
After going out for a wave, covered in sweat, and involving mental influences, he got up early the next day, and Young Master Hua was happy to accompany the purple old man for leisure.
A peaceful journey, a rare tranquility.
The disciples of the Leopard King Sect were also very peaceful, and they respected Ji Zong and the other two sects as if they were guests.
Finally arrived at the Sand City.
The City of Sand is different from all the towns in the Great Oasis!
This city, with its high walls and thick walls, stands incomparably abruptly in the endless desert.
The city is huge.
A city of sand is at least the size of five or six Aquila Cities, and it has a large population and developed commerce.
The Sand City is not only a transit point for the Alliance's major oasis to the Eastern Realm, but also the residence of the Governor's Mansion in the Northern Realm.
More than 100,000 troops were stationed.
The four major sects passed through the deep city gate and drove into the city of sand.
At this time, the city of sand was already overcrowded.
In addition to the people living here, there were dozens of major sects that came to participate in the martial arts conference.
Each sect sent more than a dozen people, and more than a hundred people.
In addition, some powerful forces in the surrounding realm, although they did not have the opportunity to participate, they could watch the battle and wait for the opportunity to study the martial arts realm of various sects in Mobei, and many of these people also came.
Not to mention the merchants from all walks of life who took advantage of the opportunity to trade.
If it hadn't been for Ji Zong who had sent someone to set up an inn earlier, the Sand City would really be hard to find.
After settling down in the inn, Ji Xuandai and Ji Chudai, the two elders, took the new old man of the yellow hat family Ji Si out to visit the friendly sect and officially introduce Ji Si.
It's a small area of wind blowing first.
After the end of the martial arts conference, Ji Zonghui officially held a promotion ceremony, invited Mobei wealthy families, and officially announced the promotion of the two disciples.
The promotion of a faction of elders is a major event that cannot be played with.
And Hua Duxiu stayed in the inn honestly.
It's not that he doesn't want to go out, it's that he can't.
According to the request of the old man Zi, Memorial Ze sat in Young Master Hua's room and guarded him.
I'm afraid that Young Master Hua will go out and cause trouble.
Hua Duxiu is sad, the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, what are you doing in the house?
"Nian Ze, have you been to the City of Sand?"
Memorialize said: "I haven't been here. ”
Hua Duxiu said, "Then shouldn't we go out for a walk and have a look?"
"As the saying goes, read 10,000 books, travel 10,000 miles. For those of us who practice martial arts, it is impossible to read, and we will never read in this life, but we can walk more?"
Memorialize Ze said, "Aren't you having a pain in your butt?"
Hua Duxiu's face flushed: "It's not that the butt hurts, it's the root of the thigh...... Hurt. ”
That's right, riding horses for days, even though there is latex under his buttocks, Young Master Hua's delicate skin is still painful.
Almost bald.
This has become a secret that everyone knows, and it has become everyone's joke.
Remembrance Ze's face was slightly red: "You, you are still not a man, you can wear out the skin on a horse." ”
Hua Duxiu looked depressed: "I don't want to either?"
"For so many years, I have been riding in a carriage when I go out, when have I ridden a horse for so long?"
"Let's go, Nian Ze, let's go out for a walk, I'll buy you delicious food, fun, and beautiful clothes, I'm going to dress you up beautifully, okay?"
Hua Duxiu stretched out three fingers again: "I promise not to cause trouble!"
Memorialize said simply: "No." ”
"Grandpa won't let you go out, you stay at the inn honestly, it's useless to talk nonsense. ”
The meaning of the purple hat, the dragons and snakes here are mixed, and with the troublesome character of Hua Duxiu, something will definitely happen when you go out.
Not to mention that there are still many people secretly staring at him, trying to rob him of something and killing him.
In the inn, the entire small building is full of Ji Zong's disciples, and it is absolutely safe.
Hua Duxiu simply lay straight on the bed, staring at the ceiling with wide eyes.
Remembrance Ze didn't bother to pay attention to him, took out a book of poems, and flipped through it to himself.
Hua Duxiu heard the sound of flipping books, and said strangely: "I said that I won't read in my life, where did you find the books?"
"What book?"
Remembrance Ze said: "A book of poems, I have it in my room. ”
Hua Duxiu got up, shook his head and said:
"Rich families don't need to buy fertile land, there are thousands of bells in the book. There is no need to raise a hall to live in peace, and there is a golden house in the book. There is no need to hate when you go out without a car, there are many horses in the book. There is no need to hate a wife without a matchmaker, there is a woman in the book who is like jade. The boy wanted to fulfill his life's ambition and read the Six Classics to the window diligently. ”
Memorialize Ze was stunned: "It's okay, Xiaohua, do you know this?"
Hua Duxiu smiled: "I think back then, my young master Hua was also a literate person, absolutely full of poetry and books, rich in learning, and a well-known talent." It's just that by mistake, I didn't have a steady leg and entered the big dye vat of the rivers and lakes. ”
"Alas, I used to be young and love to chase my dreams, and I just wanted to fly forward. traveled through thousands of mountains and thousands of rivers, and could not go back all the way. ”
Memorial Ze looked at Hua Duxiu with strange eyes.
At this moment, Young Master Hua, he seems to have a mysterious aura unique to literati, which makes Memorial Ze's mood slightly complicated.
She grew up practicing martial arts, and although she was literate, she really didn't read much.
And Young Master Hua, as long as he likes it, it seems that he can export it at any time, and it is not a problem to quote scriptures.
What a weirdo.
Hua Duxiu finished her hair, and was suddenly stunned: "What did you call me just now?"
Memorialize Ze smiled; Call you Xiaohua, how about it, doesn't it sound good?"
Hua Duxiu waved his hand: "It's not good, it's very bad! I'm your father-in-law, you either call me Brother Xiu, or call me Xiu, how can there be any reason to call me Xiaohua?"
Memorial Ze's face darkened.
I'm your father-in-law.
Hua Duxiu said a wordless sentence, which stung Memorial Ze's heart.
Bao Yibao next door, not only did they get married, but after they got married, their daughters-in-law and daughters-in-law had big bellies.
And this case, the enigmatic marriage contract even Memorial Ze himself doesn't know whether it's true or not.
After the martial arts conference and the young master of the Iron King Temple, should Hua Duxiu leave after completing the agreement?
He...... Can he not leave and continue to practice martial arts in Ji Zong?
After all, his realm of "one gas and two streams" is only a small success.
If...... If you can really marry him, it doesn't seem to be as bad as you imagined.
At least life won't be boring.
Alas.
Remembering Ze thought twice, Hua Duxiu was as if he hadn't seen it, and continued to chatter.
There's no way, in most cases, Young Master Hua can't be serious.
What to say and do is based on temperament, and it is seldom thought through.
Just as they were in their own wild, a sudden rush of footsteps came from outside the door, and a warm voice shouted while running:
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, you're not there, brother-in-law!"
