Even if they are brothers, they have to be separated. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhan Bai never believed that Meng Fu was so generous, just hoping to recruit himself as a son-in-law. What's more, Meng Fu is not only a father, but also the head of a sect.
So what is the plan of the Devil?
With Zhanbai's brain, almost a little thought, he already had the answer.
There may even be sword intent in the Dao Realm.
At the beginning of the discussion with Meng Yu'er, Zhan Bai was distracted and secretly observed Meng Yu. Especially when he inadvertently used a trace of the Dao realm of returning to the sect and the non-attacking sword intent, the flash of essence in Meng Fu's eyes could not escape Zhanbai's eyes.
Fortunately, Meng Fu also understands the reason, at least he didn't do anything to rob and rob him, but tried his best to win it over. From this point, it gave Zhanbai a lot of goodwill.
Of course, it is clear that although I am not disgusted with what Meng Fu did, it does not mean that Zhanbai will give away benefits in vain. And with his character, equal exchange has a certain operability.
Although the sword intent cannot be taught, it can give some advice to others.
The same is true of the Dao realm, the breakthrough of the Dao realm is often just a layer of window paper, if there is the guidance of a master, coupled with their own understanding, they will definitely be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Similarly, although Meng Yu pretended to be in the hands of Meng Yu'er to inform him of the existence of the Twin Dao Realm and the Sword Weaving Technique, on the premise of not getting the due reward, he would definitely not be cheap.
Now, the reason why the two sides did not propose a deal is more of a mutual temptation, hoping to pay less in the next showdown and get the maximum return.
And Meng Yuer is the key point of the game between the two.
As far as Meng Yu is concerned, once Zhanbai can become Meng Yu'er's husband, then the secrets on Zhanbai's body can naturally be used by him, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone or even three eagles.
Similarly, for Zhanbai, if he can win the favor and trust of Yu Yu'er, he can also get the sword weaving technique he wants and even the secret of Qin Jianlu's double Dao realm without paying too much.
The two of them each have their own plans, but unfortunately, Meng Yu'er, who is caught in the middle, knows nothing.
Of course, it is also a use, and Zhanbai is undoubtedly more pure, at least not like Meng Fu, who more or less also paid his fatherly love.
The single house where Zhanbai is now located is located in the back mountain of the ape, because it is far away from the sword forging workshop of the sect, and the environment is also quiet. The wooden houses are connected in the shape of U, and the remaining side has a courtyard gate, which looks a bit like a courtyard house in style.
The courtyard is not too big, with some flowers and bamboos, and the layout is simple, but for the Qin people, it is already a rare taste.
At this time, Zhanbai sat cross-legged in the corridor outside the living room door, sipping the fragrant tea made by Xiao Na, while thinking about future countermeasures.
"It's almost time." Zhan Bai suddenly raised his head, looked at the sun that had been tilting westward, and said something inexplicably.
As soon as the words fell, a familiar figure appeared at the gate of the courtyard that was tied up to the waist of a person by a fence.
"Brother Zhan Shi." Standing outside the courtyard gate, Meng Yu'er knew how to make a Qin salute to Zhanbai.
The old-fashioned nature of the Qin people was undoubtedly evident at this time.
No matter how familiar they are, when they meet, the Qin people will always do their best to be polite, making Zhanbai quite uncomfortable.
As a last resort, Zhan Bai could only get up slowly and reluctantly return the salute to Meng Yu'er, otherwise, it would be easy to be considered impolite.
"Daddy has set up a banquet, let me come to ask Brother Zhan Shi." Meng Yu'er said with a glance.
This matter has been said yesterday, and there is no need to make another trip to Yu'er.
Despite this, Meng Yu specially sent Meng Yu'er over, and this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened.
"There's a girl." Zhan Bai patted the unnecessary dust on his body, turned his head and signaled to Xiao Na, then walked to the courtyard gate alone, and followed Meng Yu'er away.
The three days, coupled with the deliberate handover of Meng Fu, have made the relationship between them quite harmonious. In order to distinguish each other's generations, by now, Meng Yu no longer calls Zhanbai a little brother, but instead a virtuous nephew. In this way, it is appropriate for Meng Yu'er to call Zhanbai "Brother Shi" again.
The two chatted all the way, and then they arrived at the banquet.
Today's banquet, compared to the following, there are fewer people involved.
In addition to Meng Fu and his personal disciples, there were less than ten sect elders.
Single person at a single table, sitting on the ground, the Qin people strictly enforce the rules that have been handed down.
"Zhanxian nephew, come and sit here." As soon as Zhanbai walked in, Meng Fu, who was sitting on the main seat, pointed to the vacant position on the side and greeted.
"This ...... I'm afraid that this is unreasonable, right? Zhan Bai hesitated, after all, although he was a guest here, his age and seniority were still slightly lower.
"It's okay, you're a guest." Meng Fu had obviously explained it in advance, at least no one present showed any dissatisfaction.
At this point, Zhan Bai was no longer polite and sat down, and Meng Yu'er sat down under him again.
With the following disciples, the feast is just begun.
In three days, Zhan Bai was also familiar with Qin Jianlu, so the atmosphere quickly relaxed, and from time to time, there would be hearty laughter.
After three rounds of drinking, Meng Fu's dark face was already glowing with smoked red, and he didn't know whether he was really drunk or fake, so he suddenly asked Zhanbai, "Nephew Zhanxian, what do you think?" β
When a sentence came out, the audience was silent, with different expressions, some were stunned, some were shy, and some showed dissatisfaction.
Zhan Bai was slightly stunned, and then looked at the expressions of everyone in the banquet one by one, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
It's time to come or it's coming, is this a showdown?
"Why, isn't it hard to say?" Seeing that Zhan Bai didn't answer for a long time, Meng Fu's expression turned cold, and he said with a rare compulsion.
"Blinded by the girl...... Very good, talented and intelligent, and the appearance is the best choice. As a last resort, Zhanbai could only reply with a hard head, of course, this is not against his will. Objectively speaking, although Meng Yu'er is not stunning, he is definitely worthy of the audience, especially in the past few days, his character is even more rare and simple, and the naΓ―ve attitude revealed from time to time is very endearing.
Hearing Zhanbai's praise, Meng Yu'er on the side did not have the shyness of an ordinary woman, and the baby's fat face was as happy as a blooming flower.
When Zhanxian's nephew said this, the old man was a little embarrassed. This girl is spoiled by her mother on weekdays, and since she was a child, she rarely goes down to this ape mountain, so she is a little ignorant of the world...... "Speaking of this, Meng Fu's expression couldn't help but climb a touch of worry.
If it's just a lady from a mortal family, it's nothing, but Meng Yu'er is a monk after all, and in the rivers and lakes, this is almost fatal.
In the future, once you walk the rivers and lakes, no matter how high your cultivation is, once you are plotted by others, you will definitely die.
Zhan Bai couldn't help but fall silent, his head running rapidly, trying to guess the intention of Meng Fu's words.
Sure enough, without waiting for Zhan Bai to ask, Meng Fu quickly spoke again.
"Zhanxian's nephew may have heard that our Daqin will hold a sword competition every five years, and the location is Mount Tai outside Xianyang City, so it is also called Mount Tai on the sword. However, all sects with a slight scale in the territory of Great Qin must participate, send outstanding disciples to compete, and finally eliminate the ranking by winning and losing, and take the top seventy-two and list them as the seventy-two sword sects. And this year is precisely the period of Taishan's sword, and it is only three months away. Originally, the old man was going to personally lead the elite disciples to participate, but now, there was a sudden change and he could only be replaced by Elder Meng Liao. β
Having said so much, Zhan Bai still has no clue, but what does this have to do with Meng Yu'er?
"Don't worry, don't worry, listen to the old man." Seeing Zhanbai's doubts, Meng Fu stroked his beard and continued, "In this Taishan Sword Discussion, in addition to Elder Meng Liao leading the team, I, Qin Jianlu, will also carefully select twenty disciples to participate, and this includes Mi'er. It's just that this time, the old man has another idea, in order to increase the experience of the rivers and lakes of the young man, he hopes that she can leave the team and go to Mount Tai alone......"
Speaking of this, Meng Yu deliberately paused and looked at Zhan Bai meaningfully.
Understood, everything understood.
Meng Fu asked Zhan Bai about Meng Yu'er's opinion before, and everyone could hear the ambiguity.
However, after all, Zhanbai was only in Qin Jianlu for three days, and it would obviously be inappropriate to talk about marriage so quickly. So Meng Fu deliberately created an opportunity for the two to get to know each other.
From Zhanbai and Meng Yu'er on the road together, the lonely man and widow have to face the sinister rivers and lakes, and after a little longer, the relationship between them will naturally rise, so ......
This old fox is really a good plan.
After hearing Meng Fu's intentions, Zhan Bai also sighed.
"It's just that the little nephew's cultivation is shallow, I'm afraid it's difficult to take on a heavy responsibility." Zhan Bai excused himself.
"It doesn't matter, if you really meet a bad person, you have your own cooking. The virtuous nephew only needs to take care of one or two on the side, and don't let the child fall into the way of the villain, and the matter is decided like this. β
