After talking about the transfer, Sheng Wenyu led Du Zundao's cronies to say goodbye to Tie Niu, and in the name of Du Zundao, he sent the coil on the road and gave Tie Niu 500 taels of silver bills, and the two sides separated.

Tie Niu pretended to take a few subordinates to take care of Wen Xianzhong, but in fact, these people were all shadow guards under Wen Xuan, and everyone stopped hiding it after they separated from Sheng Wenyu and others, Tie Niu couldn't help but burst into tears, and knelt down on one knee to Wen Xianzhong: "Uncle Wen, my nephew is late to rescue you, so you suffer!" ”

Li Tieniu and Mu Chong's father died early, because the two best friends of their sons, Wen Xianzhong, were personally taught, not only loving to them, but also teaching them with a full stomach of economy, so that the two of them were of good conduct and had both loyalty and righteousness.

Seeing Tie Niu crying, the old man couldn't help but shed tears, and covered his face with his sleeves: "Good boy, with you being deterred outside, the thief surnamed Du did not dare to treat me badly, except for restricting my freedom of movement, he did not make much trouble. ”

As the two were talking, two people appeared not far away, it was Wen Xuan and Mu Chong who were secretly observing.

Mu Chong saw Wen Xianzhong also crying on the ground, Wen Xuan also had a tight throat, his eyes were sour, he endured it so that he didn't shed tears, and walked to his father and knelt down: "Dad, my son is incompetent, and I have made you suffer." ”

Wen Xianzhong first helped Tie Niu and Mu Chong up to comfort him, and finally looked at his son, his eyes were both happy and relieved, although he was in prison, but Du Zundao did not deliberately hide the news from him, Wen Xianzhong guessed what things outside were done by his son.

"Get up, Xuan'er, it's been so hard for you for so long." Wen Xianzhong's voice was full of indebtedness, because he knew in his heart how extensive the involvement of the Wen family, the Han family, the Zhou family, the Ming Sect and other forces was, and how complex the grievances were, and he was not worried about Wen Xuan not being able to cope with it for a day during his house arrest, and even died suddenly and tragically.

Father and son are heart-to-heart, although Wen Xianzhong and Wen Xuan are not good at expressing their feelings, they also know each other's endless worries in each other's hearts these days.

Tie Niu cried the worst, but his emotions recovered the fastest, and after crying, he opened up: "No matter what, it is a good thing to be able to rescue Wen Bo smoothly, and it is worth our celebration!" ”

The other three naturally nodded in agreement, and everyone rushed for a short distance, found a shop in the neighboring villages and counties, and chatted while eating after repairing it, and told Wen Xianzhong about the many major events that happened one by one.

Wen Xianzhong nodded while listening, his face full of relief: "The three of you have really grown up, and you have all become men who can take charge of themselves." ”

The three of them smiled bitterly when they heard this, although they unreservedly talked about the hardships they had experienced and the gains they had made for so long, but they did not dare to say the meaning of retreat in their hearts.

Wen Xianzhong saw that the three of them had a difficult look on their faces, and immediately put down the teacup and asked, "If you have anything to say, are you afraid that I will beat your hand board with bamboo sticks like you did when you were a child?" ”

Wen Xuan smiled bitterly when he heard this, and took the lead in replying: "Dad, the three of us have done a lot of things to punish evil and promote good for so long, but we have never done a single evil thing or wrong thing, but we have also experienced too many people and things, and have seen too many intrigues and conspiracies. ”

Wen Xianzhong's face sank when he heard this, and he was immediately silent for a long time.

When the three of them saw the old man's attitude, they all looked at him and didn't dare to look directly at him.

After a full stick of incense, Wen Xianzhong sighed, picked up the teapot and poured it into his own teacup: "Your thoughts are exactly what we thought back then." ”

The "we" in Wen Xianzhong's mouth naturally refers to Mu Chong and Li Tieniu's father, so Mu Chong and Tieniu immediately pricked up their ears to listen, and they were not willing to let go of the old things about their father.

"Not to mention that Mu Yun and I were later forced to get on the shipwreck, even Li Kun, who was born in Xiaofushe Village, also had similar emotions at your age. However, due to the different circumstances, our wishes at that time were the opposite of the three of you, and we were fed up with the life of being trapped in the mountains, and we wanted to rush out of the mountains to make a career. ”

As soon as Wen Xianzhong's words fell, Tie Niu couldn't help but ask: "Then what?" Are you going out to explore the rivers and lakes? Isn't my dad a conservative in the mountains? ”

Wen Xianzhong smiled: "They are all at the age of Qi and blood, so naturally they want to do it, the three of us went down the mountain together, just like you quelled the rebellion in Qinglong Hall, not only stabbed a lot of corrupt officials and cool officials in the Yuan Court, except for many wicked people, but also met a wonderful person like Monk Peng, and also formed a deep friendship with Han Qiong's sect leader, now in retrospect, I still feel that my blood is churning, it is really happy!" ”

Mu Chong echoed: "It's also interesting when we go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, so why don't you ask us in detail, why do you want to escape the world now?" ”

Wen Xianzhong took a sip of herbal tea, then smacked his lips as if he was drinking, and said with a smile: "Of course, it's because the world has changed." ”

Wen Xuan nodded: "Now that the Yuan Court has been stormy, and the people from all over the country have risen together, I believe that in the near future, the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains will be completely new." ”

Wen Xianzhong echoed: "Yes, so I, an old man, should be happy for you!" ”

Tie Niu lowered his head and said, "Wenbo, but wouldn't we be too selfish like this......"

Mu Chong was also silent.

"Selfish?" Wen Xianzhong shook his head: "There are many selfish people in this world, no matter what, I can't say that you are a few good children, you have done enough to fulfill the wishes of our generation, since your heart is not here, just retire and live a good life, don't get involved again." ”

Mu Chong and Tie Niu were overjoyed when they heard this, and the two of them were worried that the stubborn Wen Xianzhong would scold them for this, but they didn't expect the old man to be so reasonable this time.

Wen Xuan's eyes narrowed, and he saw the deep meaning of his father's words, but he didn't break it on the spot, just kept drinking tea and thinking about what to prepare next.

After a few people then changed the topic and listened to Wen Xianzhong talk about a lot of interesting things back then, Wen Xuan put down the teacup and got down to business: "Brother Li, Brother Mu, after all, Brother Sheng is still on standby by Du Zundao's side, in order to prevent Du Zundao from becoming suspicious, I still have to accompany my father to finish this scene, and the two of you can return to Fuchuan Mountain and Sanssouci Island first, and I will go to you after my father and I finish the matter." ”
