33. Requests
In the bamboo garden outside the city, the last stubborn Seven Peerless disciples were fierce and abnormal.
He defeated 3 Xiaoxiang disciples in a row, and he was only a little short of able to break out of this Jedi.
But in the end, he was blocked by Lin Huiyin with a sword, and was attacked by Shen Qiu from behind, piercing his heart with a knife, and he was on the account.
At this point, the rudder of the Seven Peerless Gates in Changsha has been completely eliminated.
There should still be some Seven Peerless people running around.
But the old nest of the Land of the Two Lakes was destroyed so strongly, coupled with the death of the helmsman, even if these Demon Sect disciples gathered again and wanted to re-form the climate, it would take several years.
This bamboo garden is located in a remote place outside the city, and it is guarded by Xiaoxiang disciples around it, and no one cares about such a big thing happening in the house.
After the battle, the Xiaoxiang disciples began to clean up the battlefield.
The corpses of those demons were gathered in the open space at the back of the mansion to be burned by a fire.
Some disciples with a more fierce temperament also proposed to burn down this demon cave to avenge those brothers who died due to the conspiracy of the Seven Absolute Sects.
This opinion was supported by many people, but it was suppressed by Lin Huiyin.
The reason is also very simple.
When the Demon Sect Boy fled, Shen Qiu told her that there were still many valuable things in this mansion that had not been found.
It's a pity to just burn it like that.
Lin Huiyin was a beloved disciple of the master before, so she didn't need to worry too much every day, and she naturally had someone to arrange her food, clothing, housing and transportation, just like living in a perfect ivory tower.
Some don't eat the fireworks of the world.
But now, Lin Yundong will not get better for a while, and other senior uncles and uncles have also been poisoned, and no one can be the director, Lin Huiyin is the acting head.
She not only has to think about herself, but also about the development of the sect, and in the past few days, this Xiaoxiang woman has matured at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.
Although the Seven Peerless Sect people are bad, the things they leave behind can still be reused.
It is a virtue to make the best use of things.
"These chests of silver were taken out of this den of thieves."
In front of the bamboo courtyard in the courtyard where many were cut down, Lin Huiyin, who was carrying a hat, carried the Xiaoxiang Echo Sword on his back, pointed to a few large boxes beside him, and said to the dozen or so trustworthy inner disciples in front of him:
"I want to give all this money to the family members who have died in the same family to express my condolences."
"Senior Sister is righteous!"
"That's how it should be!"
Before Lin Huiyin's words were finished, everyone in front of them remembered a burst of cheers and cheers, some of which meant to welcome and pat on the back, and some of whom sincerely thanked the senior sister.
"I'll be done."
Xiaoxiang Woman raised her hand and pressed it down, and the noise in front of her subsided a little.
She added:
"But the Seven Peerless Sects have been operating in Changsha for many years, and there will definitely not be only such a little accumulation in the old nest here, I would like to ask you junior brothers and sisters to help the outer disciples find the secret room in the house.
The more goods you find, the more funeral rites you will have for your deceased companions, and I hope you will look for them.
In addition, from now on, all the belongings found by the people of my Sword Sect from such a state of affairs will be returned to the Gongzhong of the Sect, and if there are any accidental casualties among the disciples in the sect in the future, they will take support from the money of this Gongzhong. ”
Lin Huiyin's tone was calm and generous, and she already had the prestige of the head of the house.
She glanced at the Sword Sect disciples in front of her, and after no one objected, she waved her hand and said:
"Then let's go about it.
Today evening, Changsha Xiangjiang Building, I will set up a banquet for you to celebrate!
Tomorrow morning, we will return to the division. ”
The disciples of the Xiaoxiang Sword Sect promised one after another, turned around and left in groups, and after everyone left, Lin Huiyin breathed a sigh of relief, managing the affairs of the sect is really much more difficult than pure martial arts.
She turned her head as if she had a feeling, and saw Shen Qiu leaning against a willow tree not far away, giving her a thumbs up.
"That's good, Miss Lin."
After Shen Qiu waited for Lin Huiyin to get closer, he chuckled and said:
"For the master, for the revenge of the same family, this is loyalty and filial piety.
With a decent sect, the rudder of the Demon Sect is eliminated, and the sword sect is greatly famous, which is a great righteousness.
The subordinates are quite fair, and there is a prestige bonus, these inner disciples are already very convinced of you, as long as you make some more money to appease the outer disciples, you will be considered to be the acting head of the house. ”
He played with a few bamboo leaves in his hand, and said to Lin Huiyin, who didn't say a word in front of him:
"Maybe next time, I should call you 'Master Lin'."
"You're not kidding."
Lin Huiyin was a little sullen.
She looked back at the disciples in the sect, who were carefully searching every house, and she whispered:
"My master is still in the prime of life, as long as she is detoxified, the position of head is still hers, I... I don't want to be the master of this sword gate, it's just a few days, and it's already made me feel haggard. ”
Xiaoxiang Woman sighed, she said:
"I finally understand now why Master used to lose his temper so much occasionally.
These things are really trivial and chaotic, and the contradictions between the inner and outer disciples of my Sword Sect have been revealed, but I don't know how to bridge them.
It's not hostile to people, it's just a sword to cut it..."
After listening to Lin Huiyin's elaboration and slight complaints, Shen Qiu shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, and said to the woman:
"You tell me, I can't help it.
But there are thousands of difficulties, and they have come to this point, so you can only grit your teeth and hold on, you have such a temperament, you can't give up your master's sect and go to the end of the world, right? ”
Lin Huiyin nodded.
"What you're saying is that I really have to solve these troublesome things by myself."
She chuckled, glanced at the package on Shen Qiu's shoulder, and said:
"Are you leaving?"
"Well, this matter is over, I'm going to meet Qingqing and Xiaotie."
Shen Qiu lifted the knife and tightened the burden on his shoulders, and he said goodbye to Lin Huiyin with a fist:
"They're still waiting for me in the inn outside Changsha City, besides, your disciples don't seem to like me very much, so I'd better not stay here as an eyesore."
"I'll give you a ride."
Lin Huiyin pushed the hat, she gave an order to a disciple, and then rode on a horse, parallel to Shen Qiu, and rushed to the post road outside Changsha City.
This road was not far, the two talked and laughed, and in a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the little inn.
Qingqing was sitting in the carriage, bored looking at the pedestrians left and right, after seeing the senior brother come back, she happily greeted her, and diligently helped the senior brother take the package.
Li Yijian and Zhang Xiaohu also walked out of the inn quickly.
The bald young man still had bandages on his arms and his left arm hanging from his neck, and he said to Shen Qiu, who was about to leave:
"Brother Shen Qiu, I still have to stay in Xiaoxiang for a few days to discuss the business at home with the steward of the Sword Gate, so I can't go with you, you must pay attention to safety on the road."
"No one in the Demon Sect can help me."
Shen Qiu rode on his horse and waved his hand to Li Yijian, and said:
"Yijian, you still have to continue to practice your sword skills, don't slack off, next time I see you, I want to test your martial arts."
"Big brother, don't worry."
Li Yijian was so arrogant that he patted his chest with his good arm and assured Shen Qiu:
"This experience has made me realize, and next time I see you, I will not disappoint my senior brother!"
Shen Qiu nodded, he pulled up the reins of the horse, and looked at Lin Huiyin on the side, he said:
"I heard you say before that your Xiaoxiang Sword Gate will be closed for several years, but you have to go to the land of Qilu to find a famous doctor for your master, there has been a war for most of the year, you must pay attention to safety."
"It's okay."
There was gauze hanging down around the hat, and Lin Huiyin's face could not be seen clearly, and the woman responded softly:
"I'm not alone, there will be people with me.
The conversation between Shen Qiu and Lin Huiyin made the young man who was hitching the horse hanger raise his head suddenly.
He patiently waited until Shen Qiu and Lin Huiyin finished speaking, and then said to the Xiaoxiang woman:
"Miss Lin, are you going to the land of Qilu next?"
"Yes."
Lin Huiyin looked back at Xiao Tie, and she replied:
"In the past few days, there have also been Taiyue Mountain Dao Masters who have come to check, but unfortunately although the Pure Yang Sect is good at health preservation, it is not good at understanding the strange poison of the rivers and lakes. can only go to Qilu and his line.
At the foot of Mount Tai, there is a famous doctor who is good at detoxification, and my master is an old acquaintance, and I am going to invite him. ”
"That's... Can you take me with you? ”
The young man looked at Shen Qiu and Qingqing with some hesitation, and said to Lin Huiyin:
"I also have something important to do, I want to go to the land of Qilu."
The simple young man seemed to be afraid of Lin Huiyin's refusal, and he hurriedly added:
"I'll go with you, I won't get into trouble, and I can help you fight... I have to go over there once. ”
"This..."
Lin Huiyin subconsciously turned her head to look at Shen Qiu.
She didn't mind bringing the iron boy with her, she had seen this young man's kung fu that night, and it was already comparable to the martial arts of the inner disciples, and it would definitely not be a burden to bring it.
But the young man of Zhetie is still young, he can't do this kind of thing, and he has to ask Shen Qiu's opinion.
"Xiao Tie, you come with me."
Shen Qiu glanced at Qingqing, and said another word to the young man who folded the iron, he jumped off the horse and walked a few feet away with the folded iron.
He said to the young man in front of him, who was very big and as a devil muscleman:
"Since you and Qingqing met, I haven't asked you where you came from, but today, since you took the initiative to bring it up, then I have to ask."
Shen Qiu looked at the young man with his head down, and he said:
"Your master is secretive, you can't say it, and I don't force it, but I heard Yaoqin say that you have to go to the land of Qilu to find relatives?"
"Yes, Brother Shen Qiu."
There was a touch of sorrow on the simple face of the young man who folded iron, and he said:
"I was picked up by Master when I was a child, and Master told me that he picked me up in the land of Qilu, when Qilu was in the chaotic years, and said that there were rebels who killed my mother and family.
When they were about to kill my baby, Master happened to pass by and saved me. ”
There was a tangle in the young man's eyes, he clenched his fists, and his tone became low, and he said:
"I told Qingqing, and she persuaded me that the land of Qilu is so big, and I go alone, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack, and I know this.
But big brother, my master is dead, and I am like duckweed in this world, without roots.
I just want to find out. ”
Xiao Tie raised his head and looked at Shen Qiu, he said in a pleading tone:
"Even if you can't find it, it can be regarded as a fulfillment of your wish, and then you can stay in Suzhou with peace of mind, do things for Sister Yaoqin, or stay in the dart game to help you and Qingqing.
It's just that if I don't go, my heart is really uneasy. ”
Shen Qiu looked at the young man in front of him, he knew that Zhi Tie had said what was in his heart, and he had nothing to hide.
After many days of getting along, he also figured out the young man's character.
Kind, simple, courageous, bottom-line, and has his own set of simple but real morals.
What such a person thinks will definitely be done, even if he obstructs it, it will not help, and it will make the relationship between the two a little different.
He nodded, and then asked:
"Do you know anything about your family? Your name is Zhetie, and this is your family name? ”
"Not really."
The young man replied honestly:
"I have my surname with Master, I don't know what my original surname was, but Master left some objects, saying that he left them with him when he picked me up."
"Well, that's some clues."
Shen Qiu relaxed slightly, he thought about it, and said to Zhetie:
"I can allow you to go to Qilu with Master Lin, but you have to go back to Suzhou with me first, don't forget that the people in Momen are still paying attention to you.
You have to go, with the permission of the black hero and his master. ”
He looked at the broken iron, and he said:
"After all, your life is not only saved by me, but also by theirs. Would you like to? ”
"Okay."
The young man did not hesitate, nodded, and said:
"Then Brother Shen Qiu, let's go back."
The two returned to the carriage, and Shen Qiu told Lin Huiyin about the folding of iron, and he said:
"I know that your master's condition is critical, and I can't delay any longer, this trip back to Suzhou, I will send Xiao Tie to meet you as soon as possible."
Shen Qiu said to Lin Huiyin:
"You wait for him in Luoyang for three days, if he hasn't arrived, you can leave by yourself."
"Master Lin can go back to Luoyang with me!"
Li Yijian also opened his mouth to help:
"I just went to my house to rest for a few days, my father has always admired the people in the Sword Gate, and if you go, you will definitely be entertained. My family can also help you find the carriage and prepare some supplies. ”
This bald boy also has his own little abacus, he has helped Jianmen a lot this time, and the unreasonable "filial piety" in the past may be able to change it this time.
However, this business still has to be decided by my father, and he is only responsible for building a line from it.
"The land of Qilu, since the death of the Great Chu Jiangshan, has been in chaos, and it is true that you have to make some preparations when you go there."
Lin Huiyin closed her eyes and thought about it, she looked up at Shen Qiu again, then nodded, and said to the young man:
"From today onwards, counting the half-moon period, I will wait for you in Luoyang for three more days, and I can't delay it any longer."
"Thank you, Master Lin."
The young man clenched his fists and bowed to Lin Huiyin to the end.
Xiaoxiang Woman accepted it calmly.
"Then Lin Nuxia, and Yijian, I'll wait for this and leave."
Shen Qiu was riding on a horse, Qingqing was sitting on the side of the carriage, and Xiao Tie, the three of them hugged their fists and said goodbye to the people who saw them off, and Shen Qiu said loudly:
"Let's not change the green mountains, the green water will flow forever, and we will meet next time."
He took the reins of his horse, stepped onto the post road, and under the escort of the Momen Chinese, he went to Yueyang, where he took a boat back to Suzhou.
Seeing Shen Qiu and his entourage leave, Lin Huiyin, who was carrying a hat, suddenly said to Li Yijian beside him:
"Li Shaoxia, help me ask, is there a piano in this inn?"
Not long after, Zhang Xiaohu walked out of the inn with a worn-out piano, and Lin Huiyin sat on a chair, put the piano on his lap, and tuned it.
Then, a piano sounded.
The sound of the piano is mixed with true qi, and it is far away, the piano art is not very exquisite, and it is not a technique for everyone, but the artistic conception has indeed arrived.
It's like folding willows to bid farewell to old people.
