Chapter 18: Unexpected Encounters
The two children have been hungry for so many days, and they have eaten a roast chicken by dividing it by two, Ye Chuan took advantage of the time when the two of them were eating, and briefly talked about the experience of the past few days, but the section of the adverse qi lock acupoint hand was hidden, and He Qingqing was sad and sad when he heard that He Jizhong had died. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Xiaolong's full name is called Long Xiaoshan, the reason why he is called Xiaoshan is because he was born a lot heavier than a normal child, his body is stronger, and he rarely gets sick, Ye Chuan learned this, and secretly thought: "It seems that Xiaolong's physique is more suitable for taking this Heavenly God Gu, although Qingqing's martial arts talent is not shallow, but after all, she is a girl, her body is delicate, I am afraid that she can't withstand such a fierce Gu worm." ”
After the two children finished eating the roast chicken, Long Xiaoshan suddenly knelt in front of Ye Chuan and said, "Brother Ye, please accept me as an apprentice!" ”
Ye Chuan was slightly stunned, and then thought that Long Xiaoshan must have planted the seeds of hatred in his heart after witnessing the tragic scene that night, if I really taught him martial arts, I am afraid that he will embark on a path of revenge again. The Qilin Sect must be destroyed, but a child like him should not be involved, so he said, "Xiaolong, you get up and speak first." He said this, reaching out to his shoulder.
Who knew that Long Xiaoshan was very stubborn, and he broke free of Ye Chuan's hand with all his might, and said loudly: "I won't get up!" If you don't promise me, I'll kneel here for the rest of my life! ”
Ye Chuan's left finger bone had not yet grown, and he couldn't prevent him from struggling like this, he let out an "ah" in pain, and hurriedly retracted his hand, He Qingqing stood up and said, "Long Xiaoshan!" What are you doing! ”
Long Xiaoshan didn't dare to speak, biting his lip and lowering his head, Ye Chuan stroked his left hand, thinking: "That's it, this kid has a stubborn personality, just promise him for the time being, when he arrives in a safe place, there is a way to keep him away from this matter." He asked, "Xiaolong, how old are you this year?" ”
Long Xiaoshan was silent for a moment and said, "I'm fourteen years old. ”
"In this way, you are two years older than Qingqing, but our Taiqing Hall has always been ranked according to the order of entry, and when you become my apprentice, you want to call Qingqing Senior Sister."
Long Xiaoshan heard that there was an intention to accept apprentices in his words, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and shouted, "Really! Brother Ye, do you promise to accept me as an apprentice! ”
He Qingqing ran to Ye Chuan's side, pulled his sleeve and said, "Master! Xiaolong is stupid and arrogant, I don't want him to be my junior brother! ”
Ye Chuan said with a smile: "If there was no Xiaolong, you stupid girl would have starved to death, if you don't thank others, forget it, and say that other people's are not." ”
He Qingqing snorted, pursed her lips and sat aside.
Ye Chuan said to Long Xiaoshan again: "It's okay to accept you as an apprentice, but you have to promise me three things, first, our Taiqing Palace's apprenticeship ceremony is indispensable, and you can get some stream water later as tea; Second, no matter what happens in the future, whether I am there or not, you must take care of your senior sister and not let her be wronged; Third, after you learn my kung fu, you can't hurt others without my permission, unless it's to protect yourself and Qingqing. ”
Long Xiaoshan hesitated for a while, and finally nodded. Ye Chuan said: "Okay, you go and prepare the stream." ”
Long Xiaoshan got up and went, Ye Chuan came to He Qingqing's side, rubbed her hair, and said with a smile: "What? Not happy? ”
He Qingqing was so angry, and Ye Chuan said again: "Xiaolong is so good to you, why do you hate him so much?" ”
"He always took the lead in bullying me...... I! I just don't like him......"
"Qingqing, think about it, in the future, you will be a senior sister, and you will be older than him in seniority, how dare he bully you? Besides, if he wasn't my apprentice, I wouldn't be able to control him, he became my apprentice, he had to obey my discipline, and with the master to support you, what are you afraid of! ”
He Qingqing muttered a few more words, and then he didn't object. At this time, Long Xiaoshan came back with a big leaf and said, "Brother Ye, the water is here." ”
Ye Chuan sat on a big stone, or first asked Long Xiaoshan to bow to the direction of the Taiqing Palace, and then worship himself, and then serve tea, although the wild fruits in the forest are not delicious, the stream water is clear and sweet, Ye Chuan took a sip, and felt refreshed, He Qingqing watched from the side, and his small mouth almost pouted his nose.
After the apprenticeship, Ye Chuan said: "Qingqing, Xiaolong, now southern Xinjiang is no longer safe for us, there is a famous Jianghu sect in Sichuan, called Qianji Valley, there are a few good friends of mine, let's go to Qianji Valley to hide for a while, wait until you learn martial arts, and then come back to avenge the dead Bai Miao brothers." ”
Although Xiaolong was stubborn, he was not reckless, knowing that now was not the time for revenge, He Qingqing was obedient to Ye Chuan, and the two nodded together after listening.
After the discussion was decided, Ye Chuan put the two children under his armpit one by one, and returned to Panzhihua Wharf with light skills.
There were many busy sailors on the dock, and Ye Chuan was thinking about taking a cargo ship down the river, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar ship.
The three-masted and second-floor of that ship is the ship that Liu Feiqing hijacked when he came here, and Liu Feiqing used his own appearance and identity at that time, I don't know if those people can still be themselves at this time.
Ye Chuan took Xiaolong Qingqing to the side of the ship, stopped a guy who was packing boxes on the ship, and asked, "Friend, can I ask you, who is in charge of this ship now?" ”
The man stared at Ye Chuan for a long time, his eyes showed joy, and he shouted loudly: "Lingxiao Daoist!" It's Ling Xiao Daoye! ”
As soon as he shouted, the guys who were carrying the goods stopped and looked at this side, and after a short silence, bursts of shouts erupted in the crowd: "Lingxiao Dao Ye is back!" Go and call Manager Chen! ”
Ye Chuan had listened to the conversation between Liu Feiqing and the boatswain, and knew that the person's surname was Chen, and now the chief manager Chen that the guys call him was naturally the boatswain. After a while, a person ran down from the boat in a hurry, came to Ye Chuan, made a long gesture, and said, "Lingxiao Daoist, your old man wants to kill us!" Well, is your friend's illness cured? ”
Ye Chuan was slightly stunned, and then he realized that the "friend" in his mouth was referring to himself who was covered at that time, and said perfunctorily: "Well, it's cured, but he still has to stay here for a while, I want to take a boat to Sichuan to do something, and I happened to meet you." ”
Manager Chen hurriedly said: "Coincidentally, our boat is going down the river, passing through Yibin Wharf in Sichuan, if the Taoist doesn't think our boat is small, we can just give you a ride!" ”
Ye Chuan shook his sleeves and said with a smile: "This time I don't have so much gold, and I still have two children by my side, I'm afraid I will have to eat and drink for nothing on the boat, Manager Chen won't mind!" ”
"Master Dao, where are you talking! It's all your own family, please get on board! ”
The predecessors planted trees, and the descendants enjoyed the shade, and Liu Feiqing also did a good thing.
When he arrived at the ship, Manager Chen immediately ordered someone to vacate the best three rooms and let Ye Chuan and the three of them move in, Ye Chuan excused himself for a long time, and after all, he took Qingqing and Xiaolong to live in.
It turned out that after Liu Feiqing gave the ship to everyone, the crew began to do a business of medicinal materials along the Yangtze River, sending cheap medicinal materials from Yunnan and Sichuan to the Central Plains to sell, making a lot of profits. In the past, everyone was the slave of the ship owner, and they worked for others all their lives, but now they are their own masters, and the real money they earn is their own, how can they not be grateful to "Ye Chuan"?
It's just that they don't know that the "Ye Chuan" at that time and the current Ye Chuan are actually two people.
Ye Chuan asked if Manager Chen knew about a medicinal material called Wulan grass, and Manager Chen replied that Wulan grass is a common plant in Yunnan, but it has almost no medicinal value and is not easy to sell, so he does not do its business, and there is no such medicinal material on the ship.
The goods on the ship were quickly loaded, and Manager Chen ordered the anchor to open the ship, and the three sails were opened together, and the big ship slowly sailed away from the dock and joined the Yangtze River under the river breeze.
Yibin Wharf is not far from Panzhihua, Ye Chuan's big boat traveled very quickly, and arrived on the afternoon of the second day, Ye Chuan and everyone on the boat said goodbye and took two apprentices to the wharf.
In this day's time, Long Xiaoshan has learned to recognize the acupuncture, that night, the three of them went to a "Hongfu Inn" near the dock to stay, Ye Chuan bought Han clothes for himself and his two children, the three of them took a hot bath, put on new clothes, and had a dinner Meimei.
Early the next morning, after the three of them had breakfast, Ye Chuan bought enough dry food on the road, asked the shopkeeper to inquire about the general location of Qianji Valley, and then went to the horse market to buy a carriage, and then took the two children on the road.
Qianji Valley is located in the depths of Sichuan, and there are four large counties to pass through on the way, Ye Chuan counted the days, and couldn't help but secretly worry - it is the fourth day to escape from the Qilin Sect, and there are only three days left before the next Qi Tribulation attack, according to the speed of the land route, it will definitely not be able to reach the Qianji Valley, in case of the Qi Tribulation attack, there is a strong enemy to attack, and he is unable to protect the two children, but how can it be good?
On this day, when he traveled to the territory of Leshan, he heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him from a distance, Ye Chuan sat in the position of catching the car, turned his head to look behind him, and saw a team of forty or fifty people rolling up a lot of dust, chasing after his carriage, his heart couldn't help but sink, and he thought: "Could it be that the people of the Qilin Sect are chasing after him?" ”
Looking closely at the clothes worn by the person on horseback, Ye Chuan's heart almost jumped out: it was the Taoist robe of the Taiqing Palace!
When those people got closer, Ye Chuan saw that the first person was Xiao Han, and hurriedly stopped the carriage, jumped down and shouted: "Senior brother! Brother Master! ”
Everyone in the Taiqing Hall obviously recognized Ye Chuan, and accelerated to this side, and when the carriage approached, they all restrained their galloping horses and jumped off the ground, Ye Chuan stepped forward, hugged Xiao Han tightly, and said astringently: "Senior brother! I want to scare me! ”
Xiao Han patted Ye Chuan on the back, pulled his shoulders and looked left and right, and said with a smile: "Little junior brother, I haven't seen you for three months, why are you getting more and more handsome." ”
The entourage of people came over one after another, Qi Hao, Bai Jing, and Feng Yi were among them, and to Ye Chuan's surprise, the fifth senior brother Shen Feng and the sixth senior brother Lin Hai, who had traveled all over the world in recent years, also returned, so that the seven sons in the clouds were gathered.
Ye Chuan greeted everyone in turn, and when he saw that there was one figure missing from the crowd, he asked, "What about Senior Sister Su Ling?" Is she okay? ”
Xiao Han hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior Sister Su...... She stayed in the door with Master, she was seriously ill during this time, coughing non-stop, and she couldn't see it well with a lot of doctors, but if I knew your news, I think she should get better. ”
Bai Jing still didn't forget to gag at this time, and said with a smile: "It's not just for the better, if Senior Sister Su hears the news of the little junior brother, I'm afraid she will be like a person who has nothing to do the next day." ”
Everyone laughed softly, Ye Chuan sighed and said: "Three months ago, I said goodbye to the capital, there are really a lot of hardships, wait for me to talk about it slowly......" Suddenly thought of Long Xiaoshan and He Qingqing, and said busily: "By the way, senior brothers, come and meet your two nephews." As he spoke, he beckoned the two children to get out of the carriage.
When the two children saw so many people at first glance, they didn't dare to approach timidly, Ye Chuan pulled them over and introduced them to everyone first: "The girl's name is He Qingqing, she is the senior sister, and the boy's name is Long Xiaoshan, and she is the junior brother." Then he turned to the two children and said with a smile: "This is your master, this is the second master, and the third master, the fourth master, here is the fifth master, this one is the sixth master, everyone is their own people, don't be too restrained." ”
The two children greeted each other with Han etiquette, and everyone was very happy when they saw the cuteness of the two children, only Feng Yi kept his face and did not speak, Xiao Han leaned down and touched the heads of the two children, and asked Ye Chuan: "Little junior brother, why do you think of accepting apprentices?" Are both children orphans? ”
Ye Chuan nodded, "Their parents and relatives were all killed at the hands of the Demon Sect Qilin Sect, and I took the two of them and was about to defect to the Thousand Machines Valley. ”
Feng Yi said coldly: "Old Seven, did you accept apprentices, but did you get permission from the master and his old man?" ”
Ye Chuan looked embarrassed and said, "This ...... But there is no ......."
Feng Yi snorted and stopped talking, Xiao Han hurriedly said: "That's right, we are also rushing to Qianji Valley, if you have anything to say, say it slowly on the way." ”
Everyone immediately hurried together, Ye Chuan sat in the carriage, and Xiao Han was in front of the team in parallel, and asked, "Senior brother?" How did you get here? ”
"The master of Baigu has invited the masters of the three major sects of Shaolin, Qiushui, and Taiqing, and is ready to surprise his lair when the blood qilin returns to Jiangnan this time, and we will first go to the Thousand Machines Valley to meet, and then we will march to Yunnan."
"You already know the location of the Qilin Sect?"
"Yes, among our righteous martial arts, there are also some friends who are good at tracking and spying, the blood qilin has been rampant in the Central Plains for more than two months, and it is time to find out his details."
Ye Chuan said: "Senior brother, this matter can't be reckless, the Qilin Sect is far more terrifying than imagined, I have already mastered a lot of internal information, and when I get to the Thousand Machines Valley, I will tell you about it together, and now I will tell you about the assassination of Lord Yan......"
Ye Chuan then told the events of that day in detail, at that time, everyone in the Taiqing Palace knew that the person who robbed Yan Song was a fake Ye Chuan, but the real Ye Chuan also disappeared at the same time, no one knew what happened, after Ye Chuan finished speaking, everyone understood the ins and outs of this matter, Xiao Han said: "Little junior brother, in all fairness, this matter is indeed your fault." ”
Ye Chuan lowered his head and said, "Yes!" I also know that I have caused a big disaster, and if I have the opportunity to meet Master, I will ...... I must personally ask him for sin, Master...... Master, what happened to him? ”
Xiao Han said: "Master didn't suffer any involvement, after all, the Holy Lord is still very respectful to the Master, the Demon Sect Demon Girl made such a fuss, your crime became extortion of money, it is not a heinous crime, Lord Yan did use the topic to play a few times later, but they were all blocked by the Holy Lord, and then the big things turned into small things, and the small things turned into small things, and everything in the Taiqing Hall was as usual." ”
Ye Chuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good...... That's good...... That's right! I have a way to heal Senior Sister Su's injury! Brother Master, you don't have the pigeon with the message from the master, I want to transcribe a copy of the prescription and let the pigeon send it back first. ”
Xiao Han was also very happy when he heard this, and said: "This is very good, but this matter is not in a hurry, when we arrive in the Valley of Thousand Machines and report the safety of the master, we will attach it together." ”
Ye Chuan smiled: "It's okay, I hope that when the master and his old man hear that I am still alive, they will not turn their backs angrily!" ”
Xiao Han laughed angrily at his words, and scolded: "Crow's mouth! What nonsense! ”
As the sun set, the people of the Taiqing Hall pulled a long line and gradually moved away in the direction of Qianji Valley......
