Chapter 185: The red flowers in the annex are as bright as fire
Half an hour passed quickly, Mei Changsu opened his eyes, felt the warmth coming from his body, and his eyes became much more blurry. Once upon a time, he never thought that one day, he would be able to feel such a strong vitality again.
Clenched his fist hard, feeling the sense of power coming from himself, a smile appeared on the corner of Mei Changsu's mouth. Just like Wang Shusheng, before this, he thought that he would not be able to live, so he could only hope to live a little longer, so that he could go to Zhaoxue for the 100,000 heroic souls who died.
In the side hall, Lin Chen anxiously went back and forth in the house, obviously Tang Ning was reading books and drinking tea in the house, but he was not in the mood to talk to him. After all, waiting is always tormenting, especially this kind of hope after despair, which makes people feel even more peaceful.
Tang Ning flipped through the books, and there were dozens of classics piled up next to the futon where he was sitting quietly. Lin Chen looked back at Tang Ning with relish, not knowing how to speak. As the young pavilion master of Langya Pavilion, he has a lot of dealings with books, from literati morality to the art of war and strategy, although he is not proficient, but he knows enough.
But Lin Chen never thought that one day, he would not be able to read the content of the book at all.
Just as Lin Chen was anxiously waiting, he saw Li Gang in the distance with another person in a gray robe and a long sword running towards the side hall extremely quickly. Both of them are martial artists, although they can't fly to the sky, but they are also a man who rises and falls, and in just a few breaths, the two came to the side hall.
Seeing this, Lin Chen hurriedly walked out of the door, but at this moment, the two knelt on their knees before Lin Chen could speak. The neat and heavy sound of collision came, which made Lin Chen stunned for a moment, and then his face was happy, and he no longer cared about the kneeling two, and quickly ran towards Mei Changsu's bedroom.
While reading the book, Tang Ning's eyes swept over the two people who were currently kneeling, as well as the back of Lin Chen, who was leaving quickly, and said after smiling: "You don't have to be like this, this matter is just a matter of raising my hands, and Tang doesn't dare to accept such a big gift." ”
The two kneeling people showed respect, their eyes were full of gratitude, and Li Gang said loudly: "Sir is the life-saving benefactor of the young master, and he is the benefactor of the young master, and he is the reborn parent of thousands of brothers in my Jiangzuo League. I know Mr. Gao Yi, Li Gang is a martial artist, and he doesn't know how to repay. I only know that after today, the enemy of Mr. is the enemy of Jiang Zuomeng, and the friend of Mr. is the friend of Jiang Zuomeng. ”
After saying this, the two of them kowtowed together, Tang Ning held the teacup, and the hand that wanted to drink tea stopped in front of him, and then smiled: "I have no grudges and enemies here, saving people's lives is entrusted by people, if the two of you really want to be thankful, go and thank Lin Shaoge Master." ”
The two of them did not get up, but kowtowed again, and the swordsman in the gray robe spoke: "Young Master Lin Chen, we naturally understand, but the grace of life is the same as reconstruction, no matter what kind of gift, Mr. can deserve it." ”
After speaking, they kowtowed again, and the behavior of the two naturally made Tang Ning feel emotional, and he couldn't help but get up and come to the two, and then stretched out his hand to help the two of them up, without saying more, he turned back to the house and continued to read the books.
Li Gang and the others did not say much, but one held a knife and the other held a sword, bowed and bowed and left.
On the other side, Lin Chen quickly pushed open Mei Changsu's door, and then saw that Mei Changsu was lying in the wooden barrel with a ruddy face at the moment. The latter was not surprised to see this situation, after all, Lin Shu was able to survive thanks to Lin Chen and his father's mysterious methods, and they had already seen the body clean.
What's more, they are all men, where do they get so much false courtesy. It's just that when Mei Changsu saw Lin Chen running to his side quickly with golden light in his eyes, he still subconsciously pulled the long shirt on the side and covered his body.
Lin Chen didn't talk nonsense, but grabbed Mei Changsu's arm, and then sat on the ground by the barrel, closing his eyes and diagnosing. After a while, his face, which was already shrouded in joy, became even more smiling.
"Well, that's true! Hahaha...... Changsu, your body is already healed and fully recovered! ”
Mei Changsu moved his lips, but in the end he couldn't speak, but nodded with a smile. Compared with Lin Chen, as the protagonist of the event, he naturally has a lot more joy in his heart. It's just that he still has something to do, and if his body can be guaranteed, that thing is the most important thing in his life.
Lin Chen laughed and patted Mei Changsu's shoulder, and then seemed to smell something, then suddenly stepped back, and then said in disgust: "Your uncle, why is it so stinky?" ”
Mei Changsu's face was stunned, slightly embarrassed, he looked at the warm water in the wooden barrel that had changed color, and said a little uncomfortable: "I haven't taken such a comfortable bath for a long time, you go and close the door, tell Li Gang, and prepare two more buckets of water." I'm going to wash it twice more and feel the rare comfort. ”
Lin Chen looked at Mei Changsu's side face, and couldn't help but sneer: "Still installed?" Look at the color of the water in your barrel, you'll die if you don't pretend? ”
Mei Changsu smiled embarrassedly, and then said with a grateful face: "Thank you, over the years, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am today." ”
"There's a lot of, hurry up and wash it, and we'll have a good drink after washing." After that, he turned around and brushed his sleeves and wanted to leave, and when he arrived at the door, he stopped and said in a deep voice: "Stand up this time, but don't lie down again." ”
Mei Changsu looked at Lin Chen's back and smiled, he pinched the muscles on his arm, his eyes were full of smiles.
After a while, Mei Changsu finished freshening up, came to the side hall, bowed to Tang Ning, and said gratefully: "Thank you Mr. for your help, Mr. and I are as kind as a mountain, if there is a dispatch in the future, Changsu will bow to the essence and die." ”
Tang Ning nodded, and then pointed to the book in his hand and asked: "I had a conversation with the Young Pavilion Master, I heard that your father fell on the battlefield in the north back then, so twelve years ago, it was the Great Chongqing in the north?" ”
Mei Changsu nodded, and immediately took the initiative to speak: "Twelve years ago, my father led 100,000 Red Flame Army to fight against the 200,000 imperial army of Dayu in Meiling. When Red Flame completely annihilated the imperial army, there were less than thirty percent left. ”
Speaking of this, Mei Changsu seemed to pause, and when he saw Tang Ning's face as usual, he spoke again: "Just as my father ordered the renovation and returned to the sun, Xie Yu, the Marquis of Liang Ning, took 100,000 Kyoto garrisons and suddenly attacked the killer. Our Red Flame Army was exhausted and unguarded, and was slaughtered by Xie Yu, and my father and more than ten deputy generals of the Red Flame Army all died tragically. ”
"If Changsu hadn't accidentally fallen under the snow cliff back then, I'm afraid he would have lost his life. In the past 12 years, I have carefully investigated, and finally found some clues, and this time I entered Jinling, which was an attempt to do this. Because of this, the matter was quite difficult, and Chang Su did not dare to determine the victory, so he refused to allow Mr. to go with me before. ”
Tang Ning nodded, and then said: "This matter is indeed extraordinary, but there is no need to worry. I believe that the world will not bury the heroic and loyal. ”
Mei Changsu glanced at Lin Chen, and immediately said, "Sir, I have ordered someone to prepare a banquet, and please don't excuse me, let's go to the front hall?" ”
Tang Ning naturally was not polite, put down the book in his hand, immediately got up, and walked forward. Out of the side hall, I found that the entire Jiangzuo League, all the people who stayed in the mansion, all came to the side hall. These people all showed gratitude, and each of them held their weapons and bowed to Tang Ning.
Tang Ning looked at the faces of these people, and found that their gratitude to him was very sincere, and he had to sigh from the bottom of his heart, Mei Changsu's talent in leading this area under his rule.
Tang Ning stepped forward, and these people bowed to the side, quietly waiting for Tang Ning and the others to go first, and then silently followed behind the three of them. When they arrived in the front hall, they dispersed again.
Just when the food was hot and the wine was warm, a vendor came to the side hall, and Li Gang put down the wine glass at the wine table, and walked towards the door with some shaking.
"Tong Lu, why are you in such a hurry, you need to come in person?"
Tong Lu looked at the side hall and saw Mei Changsu holding a wine glass and toasting to the young man opposite him, so he cautiously came to Li Gang's side and whispered in his ear: "The Seventh Prince has set off to return to Jinling, and it is expected to arrive in Jinling at noon tomorrow." The prince has received news from the prince, and the person in charge of keeping the treasure has also set off. ”
In addition, the house slaves of the Qingguo Mansion were rescued by Zhuo Qingyao, and the Qingguo Gong found the Shuangsha Gang to come forward and chase and kill along the road, and now the two gangs have arrived at the Yujiang River fifty miles away from the left of the river. In addition, Xiao Gongzi, the prince of the Hou Mansion, and Yan Gongzi of the Yan Mansion also arrived outside Langzhou City, and the sect master instructed them to pay special attention to these things, and I dare not delay. ”
When Li Gang heard this, he had a little drunken eyes, and a golden light appeared, and he immediately spoke: "Okay, I will tell the sect master about this matter, you go back first, don't let people notice about it." ”
After Tong Lu left, Li Gang returned to the side hall, but he didn't deliberately hide it, but said softly: "Sect Master, Zhuo Qing has arrived at Yujiang, fifty miles away from Jiangzuo, and the Seventh Prince is expected to arrive in Jinling at noon tomorrow." ”
Although Mei Changsu was extremely happy because of the new life, he had not really drunk since his Zhaoxue plan had begun, and Tang Ning told him that although his body had recovered, the lost vitality still needed time to replenish, so he didn't drink much. And on the entire wine table, the most drunk were Lin Chen and Li Gang.
Although it is a daughter who is not very high, she also has five catties of belly, but Li Gang has a good amount of wine, and he is really happy, and he has to treat guests for the sect master, so he drank more.
In the past, alcohol was their forbidden thing, first, they were afraid of talking nonsense after drinking, second, they were afraid that they would not be able to protect Mei Changsu's safety after drinking, and third, Li Gang Zhenping was in an important position, and he was afraid that drinking would affect the transmission of messages. It's just that what Li Gang didn't expect was that Tang Ning was very good at drinking, just the wine, and he didn't know how much he was down.
But looking at his unchanged face, Li Gang knew that in terms of the amount of alcohol, I am afraid that no one in the Jiangzuo League can beat him.
When Mei Changsu heard these news, he frowned and thought for a while, and then looked at Tang Ning apologetically and said, "There are important matters to deal with in the alliance, and Changsu should have accompanied Mr. to ......have fun."
"It's okay, you can go."
Tang Ning naturally heard a few people talking, he just nodded, and didn't care, after all, in this world, there was nothing worth his special attention at all. And the only ones who could attract his attention were Mei Changsu, Lin Chen and others, but these people were mortals after all, and Tang Ning didn't want to interfere in their affairs.
Helping Mei Changsu, it was barely Tang Ning who couldn't bear Mei Changsu's return from hell, and he survived for more than ten years, and finally ended up for 100,000 heroic souls, but in the end, he fell on the border of Daliang Country due to his lack of physical strength.
Of course, in addition to being unbearable, the more reason is that Mei Changsu is indeed a talent, and this talent has the face of Lao Hu in his previous life, and it is really difficult for Tang Ning to sit back and watch his tragic fate.
When Mei Changsu heard this, he bowed, and then said no more, turned around and left with Xiao Feiliu, who was only concerned about eating. As soon as he left, the banquet came to an end. Lin Chen was already overwhelmed with alcohol, and fell asleep on the wine table, while Li Gang left with Mei Changsu, and only Zhen Ping and Tang Ning were left in the entire banquet.
Because Li Gang drank wine, Zhen Ping could only watch, after all, at least one of the two of them had to be able to stay awake at all times to ensure Mei Changsu's safety. Although Lin Chen's martial arts are not bad, and Feiliu is also a good player, it is always not wrong to leave a back hand in everything.
Zhen Ping looked at the mess on the table and beckoned the servants outside the hall to come and clean up, while Tang Ning supported Lin Chen and returned to the side hall. After a short period of hustle and bustle, the Mei Mansion of Nuoda returned to calm again.
Tang Ning put Lin Chen on the couch, stood in front of the door, stared at the red flowers in the courtyard that grew at some point, and couldn't help but smile slightly. This peanut is very gorgeous, as red as fire, as if it means the vigor of life.
Above the Yujiang River, Ji Ying, the leader of the Shuangsha Gang, stood on the deck of a big ship, looking at the tattered boat rushing forward not far away, his brows were furrowed, and his face was slightly anxious. From time to time, his eyes glanced at the mast standing on the surface of the river.
"Gang leader, it's almost Jiangzuo, can we still chase after it?"
The gang members of the Double Brake Gang asked with some trepidation when they saw that the boat was only a hundred and ten meters away from the mast. As soon as his words fell, a middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper who had been standing beside Ji Ying smiled coldly.
"You have received the money, no matter where you chase it, even if you enter Jinling City, you have to end this matter."
Ji Ying's face was displeased, but he thought that the housekeeper was from the Guogong Mansion, and he used people's money to eliminate disasters for others, so he didn't show it, but said in a deep voice: "Try to solve this matter before Xiaozhou crosses the line." ”
The Shuangsha Gang looked at the boat hundreds of meters away, and said with some distress: "Gang leader, we also want to do this, but the range of the bow and arrow is not enough, although their boat is not faster than us, but if you want to catch up within 100 meters, how easy is it?" ”
Ji Ying hasn't spoken yet, just a gloomy face, he naturally understands these truths, it's just that the employer is on the boat, he can't say that the matter can't be solved, and then take the brothers home? If this is the case, how will the Double Brake Gang gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes in the future? How do you explain to the Guogong Mansion?
Ji Ying couldn't say anything, but the housekeeper of the Guogong Mansion was angry when he heard the words, and he looked at the person who spoke angrily, and said hatefully: "I don't care what method you use, and I don't care what you are worried about, Grandpa Guo only wants them to die, if they don't die, hum ......"
Ji Ying was very dissatisfied, he clenched his fists, turned his head to look at the arrogant butler, the butler smiled coldly, and threatened: "Ji Gang Master is a smart person, you should know what consequences you will bear if they escape." ”
Several gangsters who were close to Ji Ying subconsciously drew their swords when they heard this, glaring at the housekeeper, while the little guy who spoke before watched Xiaozhou cross the mast, as if he was very afraid and said, "Helper, they have entered Jiangzuo!" ”
