Seeing that all the teenagers drank ginger soup, Xu Zixian also drank a bowl himself, there are no antibiotics these days, and it is a terminal illness if a cold develops into pneumonia, so it is better to be careful.

Xiuniang came over and brought a small jar of wine, which was a kind of fruit wine, about a dozen jars, buried under the flower trees in the backyard, which was found by chance, and then taken out by Xiuniang and placed in the cellar where the ice was stored.

Xu Zixian occasionally complained that there was no real iced drink to drink, and that there was too little wine, and he had already finished drinking.

It's just a casual word, but it makes the girl remember it firmly.

The outer walls of the jar are all traces of chilled, originally this kind of chilled wine was more suitable to drink a few days ago, but it is not bad now, after all, it has just entered autumn, and the weather still has the remnants of heat.

Xiuniang didn't stay long, she knew that Xu Zixian still had important business, smart women wouldn't ask too much, Xiuniang had already gotten too much what she wanted, even though she was only sixteen years old, she was already quite mature and sensible, although this kind of sensibility sometimes made Xu Zixian feel distressed.

Perhaps this is the greatest sorrow of this era, the materials are too scarce, and only a few people can live comfortably.

The wine is slowly poured into the glass, not as good as expected, some sweet, but more sour, this age is not suitable for long-term storage, but it is cold enough, which is good.

Maybe the life of the traveler is also like this, you need to constantly discover surprises, don't be impatient, don't panic, but also can't be too leisurely. Occasional enjoyment can slow down the eager state of mind, and unconsciously, Xu Zixian's psychological fluctuations, which have been too frightened and excited, have gradually calmed down.

Xu Zi sipped slowly until there was a murmur of footsteps outside the house.

Qin Dongyang gently pushed the door in, this was the time that had been agreed a long time ago, he didn't knock on the door, but walked in directly.

The rain flowed down the clothes and soaked the brick floor, Qin Dongyang did not take off the clothes, he said to Xu Zixian: "Shizi, they are here." ”

"Please come in." Xu Zixian said to the door: "Is the uncle and the second master of the Ge family here?" ”

"It's us."

An answer came from the door, and when I heard the voice, I felt that it was a man with a strong body, and when the people walked in, it was indeed the same. Under the hat is a thick face covered with beard, tall and stout, with obvious green tendons on both hands, one hand on the waist, the other on the waist. These two people are obviously different from ordinary people, they are tall and burly just ordinary appearances, their hands are unusually slender, and their eyes are brighter and sharper than ordinary people, although the room is dim, but Xu Zixian still has a strange feeling of being seen through to the heart.

At the same time, both of them had a few short spears inserted in their waists, these iron spears were much shorter than the barrier knife, obliquely inserted into their waists, and behind their backs were a round thing, Xu Zi first knew that this was a shield used by the two of them.

Both of them are surnamed Ge and are the two bandit leaders of the "Gushan Bandits". Different from the Qishan bandits who specialize in robbing coastal residents, the scale of the Gushan bandits is very small, the leader is two, and the subordinates are less than 100 people at most, and the normal is about thirty or fifty people.

Gushan thieves are rampant in Fuzhou City and the surrounding counties, most of them are robbing those rich families, even if it is the clan and do not let go, it is rumored that they have turned into the Zhao Wang's mansion, frightened the clan where they lived, and then alarmed the nursing home, and fought and retreated, the Ge brothers threw a hundred spears before and after, and nailed more than ten tooth generals to the ground, and then the guards of the Zhao Wangfu could only give up the pursuit.

This matter has been rumored, Zhao Wangfu has never admitted it, when Xu Zi first saw the Ge brothers, his first feeling was that the rumors were afraid that they were true.

Xu Zi stood up first and arched his hand: "Which one is the uncle of the Ge family, and which one is the second master?" ”

"Don't dare to be, I'm Ge Cunzhong, and this one next to me is the second brother Cunyi." A slightly shorter strong man took a step forward, his sharp eyes still staring at Xu Zixian, making him feel uncomfortable, and the man did not return the courtesy, and his tone was also violent.

"Hmm." Xu Zixian nodded and said, "Since the two of you are here, even if the agreement between us is completed, I also believe that the two of you will make a promise, and there will be no unexpected twists and turns." ”

"We don't really believe you." Ge Cunzhong said politely: "The people in the government are all miscellaneous, and the clan doesn't have a few good goods. But seeing that you are still young, I am afraid that you have not done much evil, Brother Qin has said a basket of good things for you, plus the Qishan thieves have long thought that they will meet them, otherwise, this thing will not be possible. ”

Xu Zixian smiled slightly, not taking the other party's attitude to heart.

These dozens of people are all murderous thieves, the Ge family brothers have been famous for many years, they were originally strong Liang, they specialize in robbing rich families, how can they have a good impression of a clan like themselves?

The Ge brothers and the Gushan thieves, when the Donghu people entered the Fujian Road, they cooperated with the multi-road rebels, and killed countless enemies, and then the two were surrounded by superior cavalry, and fought to the end, I heard that the two were about 100 steps in front of them, and the corpses were like mountains, and the Donghu people did not dare to approach until the end, and the murderous aura on the two was actually a shock that the war horse did not dare to approach, and when it was finally found that they were dead, there were countless wounds on the two of them, and the body was like a bath in blood, and finally died when they still stood stiff.

For such a heroic person, Xu Zixian naturally wanted to recruit him, and he didn't even need King Qi's letter, just to include these two people in his bag. It's just that Xu Zixian is still self-aware, he is now famous, has no actual power, and does not have a solid and deep connection, and the money in his pocket is even less pitiful, this capital wants to recruit the giant thieves who have become famous, as long as the brain capacity of the Ge brothers is larger than that of the hamster, they will definitely choose to teach the junior in front of him who does not know the height of the sky, even if it is the four-rank general of the imperial court and the prince of the Hou Mansion who is waiting to attack the lord.

Qin Dongyang's matchmaking was so smooth, which made Xu Zixian wonder if Qin Dongyang had a black history. The Qin family's family background looks quite ordinary, as the saying goes, the poor are rich and martial, Qin Dongyang has been traveling around for more than ten years before, looking for famous teachers and looking for martial arts masters of the same generation to compete, and learn from it.

The Gushan Bandit and the Qishan Bandit are two types of bandits, with different styles and insoluble grudges against each other, and the Ge family brothers really chose to come over to cooperate after secretly contacting Qin Dongyang, which can be regarded as an unexpected surprise.

"Unless Chen Yutai from Qishan kills us, don't look for us, he is here, Brother Qin knows how to find us." Ge Cunzhong didn't mean to stay in the Hou Mansion at all, after finishing speaking, seeing that Xu Zixian had no objections, he felt that this son was not bad, from the perspective of a martial arts master, Xu Zixian was good, his physique was quite strong, and from the point of view of his body, he was an image of a martial artist who had been practicing hard, although he had not entered the door of martial arts, it was also quite rare for a child of the noble clan. Because of this, Ge Cunzhong had a slightly better impression of Xu Zixian, nodded and prepared to leave.

Ge Cunyi, who had been silent, walked a few steps to the table where Xu Zixian was standing, Qin Dongyang frowned, and his figure also moved.

For a master like the Ge brothers, it would be very difficult for Qin Dongyang to prevent it if he broke out to kill people at close range.

Xu Zixian has a rather strong sense of oppression, although the person in front of him is not as impressive as Liu Yi's momentum, and there is also an obvious murderous aura on his body, especially the several iron spears on his waist, the spearheads revealed are dim, but there seems to be blood flowing on the tip, and there is a unique sense of weirdness.

"Good wine." Ge Cunyi reached out and picked up the wine glass, felt the cold feel in his hand, and then raised his glass and drank it all.

"On such a rainy day, drinking such wine, the little marquis is a person who hides things in his heart." Ge Cunyi's voice was actually a little soft, which did not match his rude appearance, and after smashing his mouth, Ge Cunyi turned his head and said to Ge Cunzhong: "This offspring is good." ”

"Oh, got it." Ge Cunzhong nodded, glanced at Qin Dongyang and Xu Zixian again, and said, "I know that you still have a master lurking, and the breath emitted by that person when the second person approached made me also frightened. In this case, we can indeed take down the people sent by the Qishan Bandits, I was a little contemptuous of the prince before, I'm sorry. ”

The Ge brothers disappeared into the rain, and after knowing that there was such a strong reinforcement, Xu Zixian's mood was also a lot more relaxed.

"Brother Qin, you can go."

Xu Zixian didn't drink anymore, he took the robe, and walked out with Qin Dongyang one after the other.

Under the rain curtain, Qin Dongyang followed Xu Zixian's left hand side, and the two walked forward, and it didn't take long for Qin Dongyang to find that he had been following the pace of the young man in front of him, not in a hurry, neither impatient nor feminine, and there was a sense of self-confidence in natural harmony.

This did not appear in Xu Zixian before, even when he went to invite Qin Dongyang, Xu Zixian's performance was a little too deliberate and modest, which is also the reason why the Qin family took precautions.

Etiquette must be demanded by others, Xu Zixian's performance is too different from a prince of the Hou Mansion.

At this time, Xu Zixian felt that he had let go of some burdens, or was more confident.

Not far away, Liu Yi, who was like a wandering ghost, was not wearing a robe, he was drenched, but he didn't care at all, and he followed unhurriedly, but the pace was also as much as possible to cooperate with Xu Zixian, not fast, not slow, not slow.

Unconsciously, the gentle, assertive, easy-going and resolute Hou Mansion began to gradually influence the people around him, although they may be better and more powerful in martial arts.

……

Xu Zi went to the place where he had been before but Sanchuankou, and he did not stop at the small street, but continued to walk until he reached the periphery of Jiazizhuang.

A Hou Fuya general stood in the dark night to greet him, as if he had been waiting for a long time, he saluted Xu Zi with a smile and said, "The prince is here, I have been waiting here for more than an hour......
