"Miss, please go in and change your clothes. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" The attendant said as he looked at her with some curiosity.

Hengyu seemed to be aware of the entourage's face, and hurriedly calmed his face, and walked into the inn without saying a word. Halfway up the stairs, I saw Boss Qi and Zhu Laoqi of the Taibai Bagua Knife walking down the stairs quickly. When they saw her coming up, they stood aside and bowed their heads. Hengyu took a few steps, suddenly turned around and called out to the two, and asked, "You two have another task?" Didn't you just come back from Jiangbei in the morning? ”

The two glanced at each other, and Boss Qi replied, "Leader Huo asked us to go and send a letter to Leader Shi tomorrow morning." ”

"What letter?"

"This ...... We don't know either. Written by Leader Huo. After that, he hurriedly took Zhu Laoqi to bow his head and say goodbye.

Now at this time, she can't be allowed to think about it much, but she just thinks it's a little strange, how could Huo Zhonghui bring a letter to Leader Shi? Didn't they both always keep the water from the well from the river? Leader Shi is now closely monitoring Chunlin Villa in Yangzhou, and he hasn't sent anyone back to deliver a message for two days, but Huo Zhonghui's people are busy non-stop. Thinking about the reason, she quickly changed her clothes, went to her father's room, and knocked on the door.

The lights in the small living room are bright. As soon as she stepped into the door, the person in the guest seat immediately got up, stepped forward and humbly bowed to her: "Miss Evergrande, it's been a long time. At the martial arts conference that day, the eldest lady bravely blocked Qiu Yun and rescued Chang Daochang, such a righteous act, Bai admired it very much. ”

"The pavilion master has won the award, and he deserves it." Hengyu also hurriedly bowed in return.

Heng Jingzhao said: "You have been out for most of the day, and you have not come back until now. If I hadn't sent someone to find you, I don't know where you would be now. There was a bit of reproach in his tone, but there seemed to be some sour worry. Hengyu was still suddenly embarrassed, and he was at a loss, so he had to force his composure, bowed his head and said to his father: "My daughter is rude, and I have made the guests wait for a long time." He turned and sat down. On the other side was Huo Zhonghui, who was secretly laughing at her embarrassment at this time. She pretended not to see it, picked up the tea that was a little cold next to her, and took a big sip.

Since Bai Mengyang disbanded his disciples and withdrew from the rivers and lakes, he has become much more easy-going, and now he is a gentle squire. At this time, I heard him speak: "Miss Fang Cai is not here, I have already told Ling Zun and Senior Brother Ling in the future, it is about the "Essence of the Ten Directions". ”

Hengyu was already clear, and hurriedly said: "White Pavilion Master, I know everything you said. I met Miss Dongfang and Daoist Shangguan earlier, and they had already told me. ”

"Shangguan Dao Chief?" Bai Mengyang looked puzzled.

Hengyu also suddenly realized that he had missed his mouth, smiled slightly, and said with some embarrassment: "This, it's a long story." Shangguan Gongzi ...... Indeed, he is also a Taoist leader. Lord Baige, let's talk about "The Essence of the Ten Directions". Xuandu does not yet have a head now. Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, first glanced at Huo Zhonghui, and then at his father, and then said, "If I am fortunate enough to succeed me, I am willing to keep this thing for the White Pavilion Master." I don't know what the senior brother thinks? ”

Huo Zhonghui saw that her expression was firm when she spoke, and he didn't shy away from it, and couldn't help but arouse a trace of appreciation, and said, "You and I think the same." He turned his head to Bai Mengyang and said, "The White Pavilion Lord can rest assured. However, it will take some time for the head to decide. As for how much time, my sister and I will discuss it. ”

"Fine, okay." Bai Mengyang said politely, "It's just that I can't let go of this matter." All three are chivalrous people, and they are all presumptuous to me. Don't want to go, don't want to go. ”

After getting down to business, the four of them diverted the topic and chatted for a while. At this time, although Heng Jingzhao has always been kind and talkative, Heng Yu still saw the anxiety in his eyes, especially when she calmly said that she had the intention to succeed as the leader. She knew that her father wanted her to change her mind, but this decision was not a momentary thought, the so-called long-term strength, this thought had long been deeply rooted in her heart, and since she said it when she said it at the gathering with her brothers that day, she would never look back.

When Bai Mengyang said goodbye, the rain was still outside the window. The night was gone.

The next morning, the sky was just a little bright, and the Xijin ferry port was already lively. The rain stopped and the wind stopped, and the people who were about to cross the river gathered on the wharf one after another, and those who walked, pushed carts, and drove cattle, leaving all kinds of noises on the stone road. There are vendors erecting pots and stoves by the docks, and a few hot canopies are swirling in the dimly flowing crowd.

Qiu Yinming had already boarded a ferry boat at this time, standing in a spacious and empty seat on the side of the boat, his hands were open to the cloth bag, and the black horse was burying his head in eating something from the bag, shaking his ears from time to time. When he crossed the dock, he saw people selling fresh peas, and he knew that the horses liked to eat them, so he bought a bag, and when he got on the boat, he fed the horses while looking at the scattered guests who were on board.

It was almost time when it was almost full, when he caught a glimpse of two muscular men leading their horses briskly from the dock, just in time for the ferry. The springboard was put away, and the two big men finally found an open space and squeezed the horses together, and looked around, and their eyes fell on Qiu Yinming.

Qiu Yinming naturally saw these two people clearly, and was surprised in his heart, feeling that his face was a little familiar, but he couldn't say his name, as if he was from the Xihai League. But they knew him. It turned out that they were Qi Boss and Zhu Laoqi of the Bagua Knife. Qiu Yinming had been to the Garden of Choice several times, and most of the entourages of the three leaders of the Xihai Alliance could recognize him, but he might not be able to recognize them one by one.

The two men knew his identity, but had no intention of provoking, so they turned their heads to talk to themselves. Yesterday, I learned from Heng Yuhuan that Leader Shi has been lurking in Yangzhou recently, and Huo Zhonghui also sent someone over, I don't know whose subordinates these two are, so Qiu Yinming kept a heart. When the boat arrived at Guazhoudu on the other side, he deliberately fell behind the people who got off the boat as if nothing happened, and saw the first two people turn around and look around several times, as if they were looking for him, and suddenly felt a little strange. Stay quiet and wait to see what happens. But the two of them didn't make any moves, hurriedly ate some things and got on their horses and hurried away, looking at the direction, it was heading for Yangzhou City.

Since they are all on the main road, they just follow openly. Qiu Yinming rode a horse and followed the two from a distance. When he was about to arrive at the capital of Yangzhou, the shops were covered, the flow of people was getting denser, and seeing that the two people in front of him were about to enter the city gate, Qiu Yinming hurriedly urged the horse to catch up.

As soon as he arrived at the city gate, he heard someone shouting behind him: "Young Master Qiu! Son! Wait, wait! He looked back and saw that the two were running towards him, it was Zhu Zhengyu's entourage, who ran to him and took a breath and said, "Son, Master Zhu Zhuang asked us to wait at the city gate every day, just waiting for you to come." It's finally here. Please come with us to see the old sect master, he is always talking about you. ”

Qiu Yin looked at the city gate of the Ming Dynasty, and the two people of the Xihai League were gone, so they had to give up, led by Zhu Zhengyu's entourage, and did not enter the city, all the way to the north.

The hills in the north of Yangzhou city are undulating, the forest is beautiful, the stream is warm and moist, many old traces of the Tang and Song dynasties are gathered among them, showing the Wenhua meteorology, can not help but make people think about the grand scenery in ancient times, although this place is not as bright as the style of Hangzhou, but the air of Qingli and Shuxiu wins three points. Walking along the mountain road, Qiu Yinming asked about the whereabouts of everyone in Chunlin Villa in the past few days.

Zhu Zhengyu's two entourages he was already familiar with, they were originally ministers of the Yiling County Palace, and they were also powerful subordinates in Chunlin Villa, one was in his forties and the other was in his thirties, named Zhong Quan. He knew each other at the opening meeting last year, and after learning the origin of the two recently, he intended to have more polite contacts with them. These two people also knew in their hearts that Lord Zhu Zhuang was both taboo and admiring the former governor, and now that he was still the son of the old sect master, this was another layer of interest, and the two were naturally willing to get close to him.

"The old sect master has been inseparable from Mr. Zhang for the past two days, and it seems that he hasn't been so familiar with each other before." Li Shengxi said.

"I heard that Mr. Zhang is a very good at pleasure, didn't he take his father to enjoy this Yangzhou city inside and out?" Qiu Yinming speculated. At this time, the three of them turned a mountain cliff, and the stone path turned into a purple bamboo dense forest, twists and turns, deep and elegant, from time to time you can see the ruins of the broken wall left in ancient times, the moss in the shade is deep, and the wild and heroic fields are full of sunshine.

Zhong Quan said: "Not really. Today's boating, tomorrow's flowers, the owners are also looking for their own fun, just leave us ......" Speaking of this, he said with a smile: "Childe, it's nothing, we are also happy to be idle for a few days." ”

Qiu Yinming smiled and asked instead, "Can Master Zhu Zhuang be relieved recently?" According to me, this livelihood in the rivers and lakes is not obtained by the relatives of the emperor and the country. ”

After the last night of fierce fighting with the Xihai Alliance, Zhu Zhengyu took several days to recover. Although he has sat in the position of the owner for many years, interacted with heroes from all walks of life, and tasted all the glory, he has never really gone out in person. That day, Qiu Yunyuan didn't want him to get involved, but the opponent was too strong, and he had to do his best, and he couldn't resist his volunteering, so he reluctantly agreed. Fortunately, nothing went wrong, Zhu Zhengyu only suffered a little flesh and skin bruise, but it inevitably made people who knew the inside story scared again and again.

Li Shengxi heard that there was a bit of ridicule in his words, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Gongzi Mingjian." Thank you for your understanding, and please take care of the owner in the future. ”

"What's wrong?" Qiu Yinming noticed that Li Shengxi seemed to have something difficult to say, "I'll say it casually, don't mind." The owner of Zhu Zhuang is not only a disciple of his father, but he can take charge of himself, and he has the assistance of the second owner, and a little wind and waves is nothing. ”

"Alas, don't mention it. In the past two days, the owner of Zhu Zhuang and the second owner of the village have been awkward for some reason. Zhong Quan interjected.

"Mouthy." Li Shengxi glanced at him, and hurriedly explained to Qiu Yinming: "It's indeed a contradiction. But we haven't been following the owner for the past few days, and I don't know what is going on. ”

"Is the owner of the village accompanying his father these days, or is he ......" Qiu Yinming was a little curious.

"It doesn't seem to be. I vaguely heard the second owner say that he didn't go out much a few days ago. Li Shengxi said, "When I saw him last night, I just had a quarrel with the owner of the second village, and his temper was very bad. Alas, it would be nice to go back. Childe, to be honest, it is always unrealistic for the owner to stay outside for a long time, and please have the opportunity to talk to the old sect master, so that he can return to Yiling as soon as possible. ”

Qiu Yinming agreed, thinking about it in his heart, not knowing what Long Shao was doing this time. At this time, walking out of the bamboo forest, the top of the slope not far from is a quiet Zen temple. I just heard the two of them say that because Qiu Yun likes to be pure, he let most of the people stay in the city, leaving only Zhu Zhengyu and Long Shao by their side, visiting during the day and staying in the Buddhist temple at night. It's still early at the moment, and I guess I don't live there. When I entered the temple to visit, it was indeed so. So, putting down the luggage and horses, Qiu Yinming invited the two to go to the bottom of the mountain for tea together.

There are countless tea shops in Qulou under the mountain, the spring breeze is warming, and the season of peach and plum is the beginning of Yan, there are many literati and idlers who go on outings together, which is quite lively. Find a teahouse with a wide field of vision on the side of Daming Temple, sit down by the railing on the second floor, take in the beautiful scenery of the mountain temple, not far away is the old ruins of Pingshan Hall, full of smoke and willow new green, the sound of playing and singing with elegant wording downstairs floats with the wind, teaching people to be relaxed and happy. Qiu Yinming entertained him with good tea, and said a few kind words, which made the two very useful.
