29: East Pavilion

I haven't recovered from my cold, and my child has a cough again. In the autumn and winter season, it is very easy to get sick, and there is no choice but to take the child to the hospital. I went out at 9 o'clock in the morning and went home at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, tossing all day, and I really couldn't help it. I had to fill it up with repeated chapters first.,I'll correct it after I finish writing.,Please understand.,Thank you.

PS: It has been corrected

————

The feudal system of the Great Wei Dynasty. The highest is the king. It is divided into two levels: prince and county king. This is followed by the Marquis. There are two levels: the Liehou and the Guanneihou. The second is the earl, which is divided into two types: hereditary descendants and only those who are granted to themselves.

The four major families of Bai Yujing are all hereditary earls. Dongbao is Wu Xingbo, Nanzhai is Wu Shengbo, Xizhen is Wu Kangbo, and Beicheng is Wu Longbo. This alone has distanced the four in the southeast and northwest from the remaining four.

Therefore, the four forces of Dongbao and Nanzhai, Xizhen and Beicheng have always been in the same breath and helping each other. Everything he does is also to help the poor and solve difficulties, and he belongs to the pillars of the martial arts white road.

In comparison, the skillful Lu family, the Lei family of Perak Hall, the Tang family in Shuzhong, and the time-honored Wen family, etc., are either gray or simply black. All kinds of things like committing adultery and bullying men and women in the fish and meat township are simply commonplace. It is natural that the four families of the south, east, west, and northwest look down on each other.

On the contrary, the four major stalls of Xiuchun Building, who are in the imperial court, care about the world, guard the right and defend the road, distinguish between right and wrong, and have captured or defeated many traitors and evil people, but for chivalrous people, or innocent and good people who were "forced to go to Liangshan", they will try to open the net, and even help them clear their grievances.

Therefore, the four stalls are not only well-known in the martial arts, but also highly respected among the people. Many people who have been wronged but have nowhere to sue will regard the four major stalls as the last hope in their minds.

Since the style of action is similar, it is natural that the four masters of Baiyujing in the southeast and northwest will intersect with the four major stalls. Especially Water Dragon Yin and Zhen Chengfeng, Autumn Night Rain and Zhou Xueyu are friends of life and death. They have been born and died together. If there is any crisis, each other can not hesitate to hand over their backs to each other to protect. It is never an exaggeration to say that they are brothers who live and die together.

It is precisely because of this friendship that Cheng Li said that he would invite some friends to come over to celebrate together, and Shui Longyin and Qiu Yeyu immediately thought of Zhen Chengfeng and Zhou Xueyu. It just so happened that they also came to Bai Yujing because they had to do some things. Shui Longyin and Qiu Yeyu sent someone to deliver a message, and they happily came to the banquet.

In addition, Shi Zhendong and Zhou Lenglong are also quite upright. They served in the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, and they often cooperated with Xiuchunlou in some official affairs, so they heard that the two stall leaders of the Soul and the Ecstasy invited guests, and they also brought Sheng Yibiao and other four subordinates to the meeting, and they happily went to the meeting.

Although the Eight Immortals table in the private seat of Dongjia Restaurant is spacious, there are many visitors today. Cheng Li, Xiao Jianshi, Shui Longyin, Qiu Yeyu, Wu Gangzhong, Zhen Chengfeng, Wu Caiyun, Wu Tianfeng, Xue Zhanger, Yuan Mingtian, Zhou Xueyu, Lu Zhongjie, Huo Yingjie, Bu Yongjie, Jin Zhijie, Murong Jie, Shi Zhendong, Zhou Lenglong, Sheng Yibiao, Shen Yunshan, Tian Dacuo, Liu Yanping, all a total of 22 people. The Eight Immortals Table can't sit down.

So Shui Long Yin immediately called the shopkeeper of the restaurant and asked him to open another table next to him. Wu Tianfeng, Xue Zhanger, Yuan Mingtian, Lu Zhongjie and other Wuyang five masters, as well as Shen Yunshan and other four Jingzhao Mansion catchers, all went to sit in the side seats. The rest of the people will be seated.

Calculating, tonight should belong to Cheng Li's first public appearance in front of fellow martial artists after entering Bai Yujing. Wu Gangzhong, Zhou Xueyu, and Shi Zhen and others are full of curiosity about the legendary Black Evil God Monarch.

Others are also okay, Wu Gangzhong, the owner of Nanzhai Village, has the highest status and the oldest age during the banquet, so it is estimated that he is the least. As soon as he sat down, he smiled and said to Cheng Li: "Cheng Baihu, look up for a long time." The old man has already heard a lot about your deeds. smashed the gold cave on the sea and greatly frustrated the arrogance of the Japanese invaders. Eradicate the Lei family of Perak Hall, a group of local overlords, and correct the name of the eight great families of the rivers and lakes. Pile by pile, all teach people to shoot the case. It's rare to have the opportunity to meet today, come and come, and talk carefully to the old man. What happened?"

Cheng Li shook his head and said with a smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just a good time to do it. Compared with the heroic feats of the old village owner Wu back then, it is far behind, it is really too far behind. There's no need to mention it. ”

Wu Gangzhong laughed and said, "You kid is really good at talking. Alas~ I know my own business. Although the old man has also braved a lot of storms and done a lot of big things in his life. But I can't really find someone who can do it as happily as these two major events as Brother Li'er and you. As the so-called hero comes from his youth, you don't have to be humble. It's too modest, but it's hypocritical, hahaha~~"

When they first met before, Wu Gangzhong was still a little polite and called Cheng Li "Cheng Baihu". But now that the interest has come up, as soon as I am happy, I directly call him "this child" and "Brother Li'er". It seems that this old man is obviously a typical northern bold man, straightforward and fast-talking, and the most unaccustomed to fake politeness.

Cheng Li didn't care. After all, the other party is almost seventy years old. In terms of age, he is more than even his own grandfather. shouted "Brother Li", but it still seemed close. At that moment, he smiled and complimented a few words. Looking back from the archives of Xiuchun Building, the owner of Wu Laozhai mentioned several very proud things in his life.

Wu Gangzhong was even more overjoyed, and he felt that no matter how he looked at Cheng Li, he felt pleasing to the eye. almost hated why he didn't have two more daughters, and at this time, he could snatch Cheng Li over as a son-in-law.

However, when asked about the incident between the Haijin Grottoes and Hangzhou, Cheng Li refused to say in detail, but it made the owner of Wu Laozhai feel that there were seventeen or eighteen cats tickling in his heart, and his heart was extremely itchy.

Shui Long coughed and said, "I experienced the matter of selling the gold cave at sea with Cheng Shao. Cheng Shao is modest and refuses to talk about the details, so I'll tell you. "Drink a glass of wine and clear your throat, and then tell you about the experience of the day. When listening to him, he rises and turns, and his tone is frustrating, which is not much better than that of a professional storyteller. During the banquet, everyone listened to it in amazement.

Half a meal later, the water dragon came to an end. The crowd was amazed. Especially Wu Caiyun, the daughter of the owner of Wu Lao Village, looked at Cheng Li with a little admiration in her eyes.

Zhou Xueyu, the city lord of Beicheng, opened his mouth and said, "Those Fusang widows actually came up with such a ghost idea to trap our Central Plains heroes. It's really hateful. But in comparison, I always felt that the Japanese were just ringworm after all.

Just like the people of Thunderbolt Hall and Badou Hall, they are actually the real henchmen of the Central Plains. Hmph, these people are mercenary, have no bottom line, and have no principles. I suspect that if the Fuso Woko had really invaded, these people would have responded in order to seek greater benefits. Cheng Shao removed two tumors one after another in one breath this time, and he really did a good job. ”

Cheng Li smiled and waved his hand, "It's just a coincidence." ”

Shi Zhendong shook his head and said, "Cheng Shao is too modest. Hey, Lao Zhou and I are both working in the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, what do the people in Badoutang do on weekdays, others don't know, can we still not know? They rely on the old man to do the backstage support, dare to do any kind of dirty work, dare to make any kind of black money. And it doesn't hide it at all. It's simply unscrupulous to the extreme. ”

Zhou Lenglong also sighed: "If you are an official and don't make decisions for the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes." I've heard adults say this since I was a child. But when I grew up and became an official, I realized how difficult it was to be the master of the people.

Even if you want to go home and sell sweet potatoes, sometimes you can't get them. Because people are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. Officialdom is also another river and lake, and it cannot be said that it can be retreated. I watched those things happen, but I couldn't do anything about it. Alas~ Cheng Shao, you may not even imagine how uncomfortable it is. ”

Shi Zhendong said again: "So Cheng Shao, you destroyed the Eight Dou Hall, for the people of Bai Yujing, it is really a great thing." Cheng Shao, Lao Zhou and I are here, for the people of Bai Yujing, thank Cheng Shao for his great kindness. ”

While speaking, Shi Zhendong and Zhou Lenglong left their seats and threw Cheng Li to the ground.

The reason why Badoutang, which was once extremely prosperous and one of the four major forces in the world, ended up falling apart now, in the final analysis, was because the head hall master Lei Wuyi was killed. But Lei Wuyi's death actually has little to do with Cheng Li.

What is really related is Li Yanzhou and Zhu Youxi. If it weren't for Li Yanzhou's first fight with Lei Wujiao, who was seriously injured and only half of his life remained, if it weren't for Zhu Youxian bribing several hall masters of the Badou Hall as moles, and letting these moles temporarily turn against the water and chop off Lei Wuyi's head with a knife, where would this master of the Badou Hall die? Where would he die so aggrieved?

Cheng Li smiled and shook his head, just about to open his mouth to explain the situation at that time. Suddenly, a dark voice pierced the wall from the outside and entered the private room. With so many people present, everyone felt that the voice was as clear as if it were speaking in their ears.

"Hmph! Who was talking nonsense here just now? What did Old Xiangye Yan support Badoutang and let them do dirty work to make black money? To slander Old Xiangye Yan like this is simply bold and arrogant and rude. Whoever says such a thing, get out of it himself, kneel down and slap his mouth a hundred times. Dare to be a little less, this matter is not over today!"

As soon as these words came into their ears, everyone present looked at each other, and no one was silent for a while.

Zhen Chengfeng, the apprentice and son-in-law of the owner of Wu Laozhai, is nicknamed "shocking lightning". This nickname not only describes him as a quick shot, but also says that he has a fiery temper. Suddenly hearing the person outside the door actually speak like this, Zhen Chengfeng couldn't bear it for the first time.

He raised his palm, slapped it vigorously on the table of the Eight Immortals, and shouted: "What slander? What is rude? It's ridiculous! Yan Chong, that old immortal, who formed a party to sell his official mantle and took bribes to enrich his own pockets, pile up piles and piles, which one is not a disaster to the country and the people? Ninety percent of the black-hearted money earned by Badoutang is filial piety to that old immortal, and the common people of Bai Yujing don't know it? Since he has done it himself, what are he afraid of others saying?"

"Bold!

The outsider snorted, and then something slammed open the door of the private room with a "bang~", shooting at Zhen Chengfeng like a meteor. Looking at the momentum, if Zhen Chengfeng was really hit by it, there might be no worries about his life. But a full mouth of teeth is absolutely impossible to keep.

When the rabbit was falling, Zhen Chengfeng was not ambiguous, and let everyone present know for the first time that the name of "shocking lightning" was absolutely deserved, and there was no exaggeration. I saw a flash of yellow light, and a huge shield appeared out of thin air as if out of nowhere, protecting all the guests behind the table of the Eight Immortals.

What was thrown in like that, impartially, just collided with this shield. When he landed, he made a strange sound of "wave ~", and the momentum disappeared completely, and it was gently bounced away. Everyone looked at it, but it turned out to be a tattered straw sandal. Looking at the shield again, it turned out to be a yellow silk cloth belt wrapped around Zhen Chengfeng's arm.

Zhen Chengfeng's left and right arms were each wrapped with a yellow silk cloth belt. On the surface, it seems unremarkable. In fact, these two cloth belts are Zhen Chengfeng's unique magic weapon, named Shizhang Huang Aya. It is woven with snow-capped mountain silk mixed with black gold thread, the texture is soft and tough, and the sword is difficult to hurt. It can also change different forms such as knives, swords, whips, sticks, shields, etc., according to the owner's mind, which is ever-changing and extremely powerful, and can be called the most unique weapon in the martial arts.

On the contrary, the tattered straw sandals were really just a tattered straw sandal. Don't look at it in tatters, the power of the throw just now is as light as heavy, and the power is no less than a strong man throwing over a big grinding disc with all his might.

Although Zhen Chengfeng used the ten-zhang yellow silk change as a shield to block the blow of straw sandals. But his body is also shaking. The floor of the restaurant under the feet has a crack because of this "Ka~". Although Zhen Chengfeng was not able to gather strength in a hurry, the cultivation of the comer was very high, and it was really terrifying.

made a hasty move, but suffered a dark loss. Zhen Chengfeng was greatly unconvinced, and slapped the table hard, taking advantage of the situation to stand up and start again. But as soon as he got up, he immediately felt a tightening of his wrist, and he had been grabbed by someone. Looking back, it turned out to be Master Wu Gangzhong.

The lord of Wu Laozhai looked solemn and said in a condensed voice: "It turned out to be a scholar of the waves. I haven't seen you for many years, but you're not growing better. Are you acting as a lackey for the powerful?"

"Hehehe~~ I thought it was who, it turned out to be your old stubborn head in Wu Gangzhong. I haven't seen you for many years, and your old face has more and more wrinkles, and you must have stepped into the coffin with half a foot, right?"

In the weird laughter of yin and yang, there was a poor scholar who was dressed in tatters, and he didn't look very old, in short, he was between thirty and sixty years old, Shi Shiran walked into the private room, stretched out his right foot and put the straw sandals back on. Then he raised his head and sneered: "Old Ghost Wu, disaster comes from your mouth." Talking nonsense, a person who accidentally offended a big man. Be careful of your Nanzhai foundation, it will be uprooted and cut down all over the house. ”

Wu Gangzhong sneered: "If you want to uproot the old man's Nanzhai, don't say that you poor scholar can't do it, even if you add those foxes and dogs who are with you, you can't imagine that you can do it." If you want to brag in front of the old man, save it. ”

The poor scholar gloated and said: "Lao Tzu is a lonely man, a poor and sour one." You offended Lao Tzu, that's nothing. But now that you have offended Old Master Yan, then you will be very obedient. I think you old stubborn man, you must be a buried wilderness, and no one will end up. ”

Wu Gangzhong's face sank, and he shouted: "Scholar of the Stormy Waves, you don't need to say cruel words here to scare people. What about Yan Chong? Which of what my apprentice said just now was wrong for him? Hmph, even Yan Chong is here now, and in front of him, the old man still dares to say it. He is a big corrupt official and a big traitor. If you like to parrot, go for it. Let's see if the old man will be afraid of the old corrupt official. ”

The poor scholar smiled: "Although Old Master Yan is not here, Young Master Yan is here. Wu Gangzhong, since you are so capable, then repeat what you just said in front of Yan Gongzi. ”

The three words "Yan Gongzi" came out, and everyone present was shocked. Cheng Li, who was sitting in the chief, raised his head and looked out of the door of the private room. Sure enough, I saw five people standing in the corridor outside. Four of them wore swords at their waists and were dressed as charlatans. Around, around, surrounded by a very richly dressed young man. And the appearance of this son-in-law, Cheng Li actually recognized. He is......

"Little Prime Minister Yan Donglou?"

Surprised, Cheng Li couldn't help but blurt out the name of the son's brother. saw that the boy's face was slightly gloomy, and he also looked up at Cheng Li. In an instant, the four eyes collided in mid-air, and an invisible spark exploded on the spot.

The boy's face was slightly gloomy, and he walked into the private room. His eyes were blazing, and he stared at Cheng Li. Ning said: "My son, Yan Dongge." Yan Donglou is the brother-in-law of this son. Hmph, who are you?"

Cheng Li stood up calmly and said, "If you don't change your surname, you don't change your name, I'm Cheng Li." ”

The boy's face changed greatly, and he shouted: "You are Cheng Li? You are Cheng Li? Good, good, good! The four sword kings, kill this son!"

With an order, the four men who followed the prince drew their swords in unison, not to mention that, they immediately broke through the air, waved their knives in the air, and slashed at Cheng Li's head. The light of the snow bright knife shone all over the room, making everyone present unable to open their eyes, and instinctively felt that their eyes were stinging and crying. The power of the sword light is abundant, and it can be seen from it.

At the time of the lightning, Cheng Li had already made an inventory. The cultivation of the four swordsmen in front of him was only slightly inferior to the Seven Stars of the Sea God Ink that he had encountered in the dream void world. It only takes one and a half masters of this level to defeat Mo Qixing. At this moment, the four of them are in unison, and it is no exaggeration to say that as long as they take a look, they can cut Mo Qixing into meat sauce!

But now, the four swordsmen were not dealing with Mo Qixing, but Cheng Li. So what will be the result of these four knives?
