Chapter 54: Brothers Reunited
Just as Yuan Hong was about to subdue the hooked nose of the eagle, suddenly, a hand appeared from the crowd and held the folding fan horizontally, and this person shouted: "If you want to move my brother, you have to ask me if I agree first!"
After settling down, Yuan Hong found that the young man in front of him was none other than his good buddy Nangong Xu.
Continuing to glance at the periphery of the crowd, he found Sima Quan again, and the one standing next to Sima Quan surprised him deeply!
Zhu Yong?
How could he be in Wujizhuang? Could it be that he was selected by Wujizhuang through the rematch?
Just when he was deeply surprised, Sima Quan and Zhu Yong squeezed into the crowd together. I saw Sima Quan move Nangong Xu's hand away, and arched his hand at the hooked nose and said: "This Brother Yuan is my best friend of Sima Quan, if he has any offense, I hope to forgive him." In the future, everyone is a brother of the same faction, and it is not a blessing for Honjo to hurt the harmony. ”
Seeing that Sima Quan apologized for Yuan Hong and gave it to the bottom of the steps, the hook-nosed young man stretched the fan extremely freely, and said loudly, "Brothers, go!"
A large group of people followed the hook-nosed boy and walked away on his toes.
The other group of people seemed to be watching a joke, and they turned their bodies in the direction where the hook nose had left, pointing and laughing as they pointed.
Suddenly, a young man with a flattering ear came out of this group of people, he approached Yuan Hong in a ghostly manner, and said with a mysterious smile: "Tell you, that hooked nose just now is the only son of the city lord of Yichun City, and it will be the next city lord if nothing else." This guy can't be more arrogant. You, you, had better stay away from him, lest you be dishonored in vain. ”
With that, he smiled mysteriously again and dispersed with another group of people.
Regarding the hereditary position of city lord, Yuan Hong has long known it. Not only that, but he also understood that the power of the city lord was extremely great, and the case prosecution department, the security department, and the evil suppression department in various places were all subject to his control, and even the city lord had the right to intervene in the silver casting department, which was jointly run by the government and the people.
However, even so, Yuan Hong did not have the slightest fear of the hooked nose, on the contrary, he wanted to see how far this guy could go, and how arrogant he could be.
came to the residence arranged for him, Yuan Hong had a long talk with the three good buddies.
Zhu Yong told Yuan Hong that because he missed Gu Xifeng's life, causing the two places that were originally selected to be in vain, in the next make-up match, he Zhu Yong and Dongfang Yue both passed five levels and killed six generals, locking the two places. As a result, he was elected to Wuji Village, and as for Dongfang Yue, he was selected by Tengyun Pavilion under Lancang City.
Hearing this, Yuan Hong realized for a while. In his opinion, maybe this is what is destined in the dark, and now it is not necessarily a bad thing, after all, he and Zhu Yong fulfilled their dreams at the same time, but they ended up together.
Suddenly, Yuan Hong held Sima Quan's hand and cast a particularly grateful look at him: "Big brother, thank you for showing me the way and retaining hope for me." Otherwise, I'm probably still feeling sorry for myself. ”
Sima Quan smiled indifferently and patted Yuan Hong's wrist: "The key lies in yourself." Just like Mr. Qimeng said, it is useless to complain about the past like this, and thinking about how to carve wood into objects is the key. And the real wood carver is you, not us!"
At this moment, Nangong Xu snapped his fingers, attracting everyone's attention and slightly changing the atmosphere. He knocked on Yuan Hong's knee, and said with a smile: "Why don't you kid bring your delicate lady into the village together, shouldn't you break up?"
Yuan Hong scratched the back of his head and smiled stupidly: "How could I have a falling out with Yun'er? I went to Yong'an City to find out the whereabouts of my father and mother, I originally had the attitude of nine deaths and one life, it was so dangerous, I would never take her with me, so I left her in Changyang City." Actually, I miss her a lot now, hehe......"
After hearing this, Nangong Xu poked his head with his finger and sneered: "Look, I said that I miss my daughter-in-law in front of my buddies, and I am not a gentleman at all." ”
Zhu Yong took over the conversation and said in a simple voice: "I have always hidden my daughter-in-law in my heart, that is the real man, who is like you, there is only your sister Nangong Hui in my heart." ”
Seeing Zhu Yong mention Nangong Hui, Nangong Xu, who was still smiling, suddenly lowered his head and was silent.
All of this was seen by Yuan Hong, and he couldn't help but secretly think, something should happen to the Nangong family, right?
Taking advantage of the opportunity of Nangong Xu to go to the kitchen to wash his hands, Yuan Hong also slipped into the kitchen and asked him in a low voice if Nangong Hui was okay. Nangong Xu hesitated slightly, and said with a fluttering look, everything is fine.
Glancing at Nangong Xu suspiciously, Yuan Hong still felt that he was hiding something, but since he didn't want to say it, he could only give up, and he couldn't use a tool to pry his mouth open.
Back in the hall, the brothers began to discuss martial arts. According to Sima Quan, he is still in the extreme stage of deep dreams, although he feels that he is about to break through the great realm, but he is always a little bit behind.
As for Zhu Yong, he had just made a breakthrough and entered the late stage of Shen Meng. In this regard, he shook the Qilin arm with great confidence.
Seeing that Sima Quan and Zhu Yong finished talking about their respective martial arts progress, Nangong Xu followed closely and said that he had made a breakthrough ten days ago and was currently in the extreme stage of deep dreams.
Yuan Hong congratulated Nangong Xu and Zhu Yong on their progress, and also comforted Sima Quan's stagnation, telling him that he had also gone through many failures before finally entering the Hanging Dream Realm.
Hearing Yuan Hong say this, Sima Quan, Nangong Xu, and Zhu Yong were all shocked! Especially Sima Quan and Nangong Xu, they could never have imagined that Yuan Hong was originally much behind them, and at this time he actually took the lead in entering the Hanging Dream Realm. To them, it's too dreamy, it's incredible!
Their surprised expressions were all in Yuan Hong's eyes. Yuan Hong naturally wouldn't tell them that it was all related to the exquisite pendant around his neck. Not to mention them, even his parents, even his sweetheart Liang Yun'er, he will not reveal the slightest truth about this, unless the stupid hat is extreme.
Unknowingly, in the evening, Yuan Hong asked the chef in the village to cook a few good dishes in advance, and specially invited Shen Gongbao, the deputy owner of the village, and Yuan Chun, the law enforcement elder who had a good relationship with Shen Gongbao, and the four of them were seated at the same time.
At the wine table, the six of them invited each other, and they all got to know each other better and deepened their good feelings with each other.
After three rounds of drinking, Yuan Hong sent Shen Gongbao and Yuan Chun away, and at this time, Nangong Xu and Zhu Yong had already fallen crooked on the soft chair.
Yuan Hong's alcohol consumption is okay, he doesn't have any drunkenness, Sima Quan drinks very low-key, and he doesn't get drunk. He pulled Yuan Hong aside, saying that he planned to call Xie Feng to the gate of the village, and asked Yuan Hong to rush over, intending to match the two and turn the conflict into a jade silk.
Although Yuan Hong was not particularly reluctant, he didn't intend to refute Sima Quan's face, so he reluctantly agreed.
At the gate of the village, Yuan Hong and Xie Feng told everything open, and patted each other on the shoulder, indicating that they didn't know each other, and then went back to their residences. At this time, it is the time of day.
After a day of traveling, Yuan Hong felt a little tired, so he went to bed early. Unexpectedly, as soon as the sky was dawning, there was a commotion in the direction of the village gate not far away, as if something big had happened......
