Chapter 715: Mysterious and Incomprehensible
Once Xue Menglian finishes practicing martial arts, as long as she is free, she will go to Wanhualou to see Xingzhu, "Torture girl." ”
Xingzhu was stroking the qin when he heard a familiar sound, and immediately stopped, put the pipa aside and got up and walked towards Xue Menglian, only to see that she was still carrying something over, which made Xingzhu very strange, "Hey? Sister Moraine, you are ......"
After Xue Menglian opened the lid with a smile, she saw that there were many various pastries inside, "These are the osmanthus cakes I made, as well as almond crisp and star fruit cake, I specially brought some for my sister, if my sister doesn't dislike it, then eat more, in fact, I came here now, and I don't know what to bring." ”
Xingzhu said: "My sister always brings so many things when she comes, it's so polite!" ”
"Actually, there is nothing, in addition to practicing martial arts on weekdays, there is only this hobby left, after all, what my mother passed on to me, I can't lose it, after all, our family doesn't allow me to go to the rivers and lakes, because, the rivers and lakes are sinister." As he spoke, he lowered his voice.
After hearing this, Xing Zhu said: "However, in my opinion, your family is not the kind of person who is timid and afraid, why don't you mix in the rivers and lakes?" ”
Xue Menglian sighed and said: "Father only thinks about peace in his life and staying away from strife, after all, our mother is a woman who doesn't know martial arts, if she provokes her family because of her own affairs, especially my mother, if she is allowed to escape, she will definitely not be able to escape far, however, my father has been chivalrous and righteous, you should have heard of it, and then after the news is over, I will concentrate on managing business, but my brother, she and her sister-in-law have been doing chivalrous things." ”
Xing Zhu thought for a while and said: "No wonder there is something in this river and lake, the 'male and female' should refer to the eldest young master and Mu Xiangmu girl." ”
"Well, maybe."
Xue Menglian always felt as if she had done something wrong again, she had been practicing martial arts for a long time, and she had not noticed the prestige of "male and female", however, she vaguely remembered that some of the disciples had passed on these similar things, but Xue Menglian always felt that she could not connect the four words "male and female" to Xue Shu and Mu Xiang. I don't know where they came from and where they are going, it's so mysterious.
Xue Menglian didn't stay on this matter anymore, but said: "Seeing that my sister's face now seems to be much better than before, as for the pastries have been delivered, then I'll go first." ”
Xingzhu just said "um", and then left without saying anything.
Yu'e looked at Xingzhu and said, "Girl, do you think Xue Shu and Mu Xiang are really 'male and female'?" ”
Xing Zhu frowned, "I'm not sure, seeing Sister Menglian's reaction, she doesn't seem to know the title on the rivers and lakes." ”
"It's hard to say, I heard that Xu Qian's disciples are only those disciples who are already involved in the rivers and lakes, and they will know some things in the rivers and lakes, as for the rest of the disciples, they don't know about the outside things at all, and no one even mentions them."
Xing Zhu nodded slightly, "Because Xu Qian, this old ghost, has always been very vigilant, and his purpose in doing this is nothing more than to be afraid that those disciples who have just started are spies sent from other sects, so he is extremely cautious, and what I have heard is that Xu Qian's recent rules for selecting disciples are much stricter than before, and even those who are too lazy to practice martial arts on weekdays have been driven out of the sect." ”
"Kicked out of the division? Isn't this good? ”
"Xu Qian's original intention of self-reliance sect is to be able to do chivalrous righteousness, and he didn't have much experience before, but with the passage of so many years, the disciples in this sect are okay at first, but the more they go to the back, the more lazy they become, if they don't take this kind of measure, it will be extremely difficult to control in the future, so they have to drive those lazy disciples out of the sect, and they will never be allowed to enter in the future."
"Oh."
The prestige of "male and female" was spread in the capital, which came from a big case in the capital before the Spring Festival, a family surnamed Jin, the whole family was burned alive in the fire overnight, for this matter, even the emperor felt very headache, so he directly issued an order to thoroughly investigate the case, "male and female" also appeared at this moment, but the two of them covered their faces, and could not see what each other looked like, and their martial arts were no less than those in the rivers and lakes.
The two assisted the official to crack the case, and even assisted the official to find evidence, and directly brought the murderer to justice, and immediately these two became famous in the capital, only according to the guess at the time, it should be a man and a woman, and the two of them have never left their names for doing good deeds, so they were respectfully called "male and female" by the people, and soon this matter spread, and even some friends in the rivers and lakes went to ask Xue Bolian, "Xue Bo, is the 'male and female' in the rivers and lakes your son and your daughter?" ”
Xue Bolian smiled at most: "My daughter has entered the master's sect, and although my son has done chivalrous deeds, he doesn't have that much ability." ”
Friends have always known Xue Bolian's temperament, so they didn't ask much, but they have already guessed that the young man must be Xue Shu, as for the woman beside him, no one can guess, some say it is Xue Menglian, some say it is Mu Xiang, who is always a mystery.
The reason why Xue Menglian didn't dwell on this question was that even if she went back to ask Xue Shu and Mu Xiang, they might not tell her the truth, just like she had asked at that time, whether her father was doing chivalrous deeds, every time she asked this question, Xue Shu always showed a mysterious smile, and then said something, there is no such thing, if you ask too many questions, you will naturally be bored.
After Xue Menglian returned to Yan's Mansion, she didn't see Yan Xikuan, presumably he should go and sell medicinal herbs now? After living here for a long time, when Yan Xikuan does something, Xue Menglian has basically understood, no matter how he practices martial arts, he always can't forget what the most important thing he does, these two people are as mysterious as a book.
One person attaches importance to his own business, and one person seems to pay more attention to righteousness, as long as Xue Shu and Mu Xiang come, her illness seems to be gone immediately.
