Seeing that Gao Yanei's dead nature did not change, Su Wan shouted: "Shut up! Xu Shaoxia is my friend, do you still want to take revenge? ”

Hearing her angry shouting, Gao Yanei suddenly became dumbfounded, just looked at Xu Ziling, and didn't dare to speak again.

Seeing Ming Xia, Zhou Bangyan said happily: "Master, are you okay?" ”

Ming Xia smiled lightly: "Gongzi Zhou, I'm fine, don't worry." ”

Zhou Bangyan wanted to say something, but heard Su Wan say: "Master Zhou, everything is a misunderstanding. You see Miss Li is fine, Shide is not sensible and has said some nonsense, can you not worry about him? ”

Zhou Bangyan looked at Su Wan, then at Gao Yanei, and snorted coldly: "Since the girl has said so, then I will no longer worry about him." ”

Seeing his proud appearance, Gao Yanei wanted to scold him a few words, but when he saw Su Wan turn his head and glared at him, he closed his mouth.

Xu Ziling suddenly said to Su Wan: "Miss Su, my senior brother and Yue'er are worried about us, I will take Mingxia back first." ”

Su Wan nodded: "You can go back with peace of mind, I will talk to him about Shide's affairs." ”

Xu Ziling hugged her fist, then turned around and took Ming Xia's hand and left.

Zhou Bangyan was stunned and watched the two leave hand in hand, a sour feeling surged in his heart, and he hurriedly chased after him.

He had just taken a few steps when he saw the sword behind the young man fly out and stop in front of him.

He couldn't move forward, and yelled: "Master, don't you really have any affection for me? ”

Before Ming Xia could speak, the young man took the lead in turning his head and said, "Master Zhou, we will never forget your kindness to Ming Xia, but Ming Xia is my Ming Xia, please keep your distance from her." If you see the reality clearly and take a step back, then I will also treat you as my brother. ”

Ming Xia was also a little uncomfortable at this time, after all, Zhou Bangyan had helped her for so many years, and she couldn't bear to break his heart, she hadn't seen Xu Ziling before, she could still be vague and let him have some thoughts, but now she can't. When it comes to love, you can't hesitate. If you allow a person to be favored, I am willing to be generous for the rest of my life.

Zhou Bangyan looked at the hands that the two had always held together, opened his mouth, lowered his head again, and the faint expectations in his heart turned into dullness.

Out of the Taiwei Mansion, Ming Xia pulled his hand out. In public, men and women holding hands and walking on the road will be scolded and insulting.

After walking for a while, I happened to meet Lin Chong and Yue'er who came in a hurry. Yue'er threw herself into Mingxia's arms and cried.

Ming Xia explained badly, picked up her skirt and turned around in front of her, and then she burst into tears and laughed.

Lin Chong also asked about what happened, and Xu Ziling explained it to him concisely, and he was relieved.

After that, they went back to Lin Mansion together. At this time, it was the third pole of the sun, and Lin Niangzi had already prepared lunch, and several people had lunch together.

Soon after the meal, Lin Chong went back to the school grounds, and Xu Ziling began to practice his sword in the courtyard. Now he desperately wants to break through to the realm of martial arts, so he has to study hard and practice hard. Most of his understanding of martial arts came from Master, Sister Fang Baijie, Uncle Fang and others, and it was too difficult to be unique.

In the past, he thought that the number of warriors who entered the house was very rare. However, there were no less than twenty of them in the Taiwei Mansion, which broke his cognition. Although the realm cannot represent strength, it is based on quantity, and there will definitely be extraordinary existences.

If he didn't go to the realm of martial arts, he wouldn't be able to come and go freely in this Bianliang City, and he wouldn't even be able to protect Ming Xia.

Therefore, he practiced boxing and swordsmanship step by step, in order to be able to learn quality from quantity and martial arts to the realm.

After practicing for a long time, Xu Ziling, who was sweating profusely, sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, ready to rest for a while and practice again.

Suddenly, sensing the movement behind him, Xu Ziling turned his head. found that Yue'er was sneakily approaching him, and after he found out, he stuck out his little tongue and made a grimace.

Xu Ziling smiled dumbly: "What do you want to do?" ”

Yue'er pouted: "I want to go to the Eight Immortals Tower to watch the weaving conference, but Miss won't let me go alone." ”

Xu Ziling pointed to Chixiao on the ground: "I still have to practice." ”

Yue'er trotted over, hugged Chixiao in her arms, and said coquettishly: "When can't you practice?" This time, the Eight Immortal Tower's weaving promotion conference was not ordinary, and many ministers of the court and the central government went to participate, and it is said that the saints knew about it. As he spoke, he ran to Xu Ziling's side and slowly withdrew Chixiao into the sheath.

Looking at the maid's enthusiastic appearance, Xu Ziling smiled and said, "Okay, I'll take you to have a look." But first of all, there must be a lot of people there, don't get too far away from me. ”

The maid suddenly smiled and said, "I know." Then he inadvertently smelled the smell of Xu Ziling, covered his nose and said, "Go and change your clothes." ”

Seeing this, Xu Ziling sniffed his sleeves, and sure enough, there was a smell of sweat. So he nodded and went back to his room to change his clothes.

The Eight Immortals Building is just across the street from the Alum Tower, which is different from the complex composition of the Alum Tower, and the Eight Immortals Building is a pure restaurant. Today, the entire pavilion was vacated to hold a weaving promotion conference, and many wealthy officials and gentry in the city who liked to fight and promote weaving were invited.

Due to the large number of people attending the weaving promotion conference, the Eight Immortals Building was divided into six venues, and each floor of the main building had two venues. Wait until the winner has been selected in each venue, and then everyone will move to the back courtyard to enjoy the final battle.

However, the promotion of weaving is not something that can be seen if you want to, and each person needs to pay five taels of silver to enter, and there is a limit to the number of people.

When the maid looked at Xu Ziling at the entrance of the Eight Immortals Tower, Xu Ziling cheekily said that he forgot to take the money bag when he changed his clothes.

The two froze at the door like this, the maid didn't believe that he didn't bring money, and reached out to touch his pocket, Xu Ziling kept hiding around, not letting the maid touch his pocket.

The steward in charge of welcoming the guests in the Eight Immortals Building saw that the man and woman were making trouble at the door, and hurriedly drove away: "If you don't have money, get out of here, don't get in the way of other guests." ”

Hearing this, the maid immediately stopped moving, for fear that she would really be driven away. Then he stared at Xu Ziling viciously: "Isn't it just five taels of silver, why are you so slammed." ”

Xu Ziling defended: "Wrong, it's ten taels!" Do you know how long ten taels of silver is enough for an ordinary family? ”

The maid scratched her hair angrily: "How could Miss like a bastard like you!" ”

Xu Ziling couldn't stand it anymore: "It's not the same thing, I am in love with Ming Xia, how can it have anything to do with money......"

"Old Wu, he's my friend, let them in!" Just as Xu Ziling was arguing, a voice came from the second floor.

Hearing the sound upstairs, the steward at the door suddenly had a smile on his face, and persuaded Xu Ziling, who was chattering: "Two, don't hurt your peace for just ten taels of silver." Since he is a friend of Young Master Geng, please come in quickly, and there is no need to pay that silver tael. ”

The maid glared at Xu Ziling, snorted lightly, and stepped on Xu Ziling hard before turning around and walking into the restaurant.

Xu Ziling, who was not in pain, looked upstairs and said, "Thank you, Brother Geng!" ”

The one who spoke upstairs was Brother Yu, who had not been seen for a long time. Since Xikou Village, Xu Ziling has not seen him for more than ten days, but he didn't expect to see him here again.

Following the maid to the second floor, Xu Ziling saw Brother Yu by the window, and Yang Qi, who was almost inseparable from him.

The maid ran over and said "Thank you, Brother Yu", and then ran around to see the crickets.

Xu Ziling walked over and said hello to the two of them a few times, and asked, "Brother Geng is also here to participate in the weaving promotion conference?" ”

Yu Ge'er said with a smile: "How can I have a good cricket to participate in such a conference, I just came to see the world with Qi Shao, and such a grand event may not be once in a few years." This restaurant is my grandfather's property, so I just happened to take a look at it. ”

Xu Ziling was surprised: "Brother Yu'er really has a big family. ”

Brother Yu patted him, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "Don't talk nonsense, my grandfather hasn't said he wants to give it to me yet." Hahaha......"

Xu Ziling smiled with him, and it was not easy to speak again for a while.

The venue where several people are located is the second venue on the second floor, codenamed "D", and the rest of the venues are A, B, C, and E. The venue A and B are on the first floor, and most of the people gathered are small traders and hawkers and relatively wealthy people; The Bingding venue is gathered by the famous businessmen and rich gentry in the city; The Wuji venue is an official who likes to fight and promote weaving in the DPRK and China.

In order to cater to the high-ranking officials, this conference did not replace people with crickets, but replaced crickets with people. That is, a person can have more than one cricket to participate in the competition. This is the advantage of the officials.

After a while, a noisy sound came from the first floor, as if the game had begun, and the second and third floors were still waiting for people, although the basins had already been placed.

Xu Ziling, who was chatting with Brother Yu, accidentally saw an old man walking up from the first floor. The old man seems to be over the age of six, but he is still burly, with a straight waist and a straight back, and he walks with a tigerish style.

The old man was followed by an entourage holding a cricket jar, and when he passed by the second floor, the old man glanced at the window and happened to see Xu Ziling, who was also looking at him. After looking at each other for a moment, the old man turned and walked towards the third floor.

After the old man went upstairs, Xu Ziling patted Brother Yu'er on the shoulder and asked, "Do you know that old man?" ”

Yu Ge'er was surprised: "I don't know you and you dare to stare at him?" ”

Xu Ziling was stunned and said, "What, can't you look at him?" With such a big official authority? ”

Yu Ge'er leaned into his ear and whispered: "That old man's name is Tong Guan, and he is favored in the court." The old man was a gelding, and a short official used to stare at his waist, and he thought that the official was watching his birds, and in a fit of rage, he killed the official on the spot. But the emperor didn't cure him. ”

Xu Ziling was stunned and said, "I didn't look there, it's probably fine." ”

Seeing Xu Ziling's palpitating appearance, Yu Ge'er laughed: "I'm afraid he's a bird." ”

……

After a long time, there have been several rounds of competition downstairs, and the second floor has just begun.

There were more and more people, and gradually blocked their vision, Xu Ziling looked for the maid's figure, but he couldn't see her. So he waved his hand to Brother Yu and the two of them, and said goodbye to look for the disobedient maid.
