Chapter 70 The Old Man Meets
This glance will never be wrong, Zhao Zheng is completely sure. He put down a table of wine and food, got up from the table, jumped up, and jumped outside the inn. When I looked closely, the carriage had already gone a few feet away.
"Li Zhenzhen! Lee Jin-jin! Zhao Zheng shouted, smiling, inexplicably happy and excited in his heart.
Li Zhenzhen in the carriage heard the voice, poked her head out of the window completely, looked back, and her eyes happened to meet Zhao Zheng.
I haven't seen each other for more than a year, and their appearance has changed a lot, they have grown much taller, Zhao Zheng has become more manly, and Li Zhenzhen has also gotten rid of her childhood childishness and has become a bright girl. What remains unchanged is that Zhao Zheng's eyes are still clear, while Li Zhenzhen still likes to wear red clothes, as flamboyant as a flame.
Seeing the old man goodbye is really making people happy.
"Zhao Zheng! It's you! Li Zhenzhen's face bloomed with a brilliant smile, and her beautiful eyes also flashed with excitement, she turned her head and slapped the carriage hard, "Father, stop now, I have met a friend!" ”
As soon as the burly middle-aged man who was driving pulled the reins, the two horses neighed and stopped. The wheels of the carriage creaked and stopped spinning, the carriage door was pushed open from the inside, and Li Zhenzhen jumped down like an elf and ran towards Zhao Zheng, but after running two steps, he stopped again, as if he felt that this kind of behavior was not ladylike enough.
As she grows up, she has a lot more scruples than before, and she is no longer as unscrupulous as before.
Zhao Zheng also slowed down and walked slowly towards the jade-like little beauty opposite, his eyes did not blink in the process, and he always stared at Li Zhenzhen's face. He didn't notice it. My heart beat noticeably faster.
The carriage stopped. The middle-aged man in the car turned his head. Staring at the young man and woman meeting on the street.
Passers-by on the street are also looking at the two of them, only to feel that the man is heroic and the woman is beautiful and moving, like a pair made in heaven, and they feel amazing.
Walking closer, Zhao Zheng stared at Li Zhenzhen deeply, and held back a sentence for a while: "Long time no see." ”
"We haven't seen each other for more than a year since Qibao County separated. Time flies, it all feels like it happened yesterday. Li Zhenzhen smiled, looked Zhao Zheng up and down at close range, raised her white jade hand, and gestured in front of Zhao Zheng's forehead, "You have changed a lot compared to before, we used to be about the same height, and now you are a little taller than me." Alas, in a few years, I will be a dwarf in front of you. ”
"To accommodate you. I can slow down. ”
"Is it up to you to decide?"
"It's not easy, just eat less meat."
"Huh. You're still talking as interestingly as ever. Lee Jin-jin smiled softly, and the whole street seemed to be more beautiful because of her smile.
"You're as good-looking as you used to be, no, it's even better now." Zhao Zheng praised.
Li Zhenzhen was very happy after hearing this, but she glanced at Zhao Zheng, made a silent gesture, and said in a low voice: "My parents are in the back, you can't speak too lightly, otherwise your kid will be in bad luck." ”
Zhao Zheng came back to his senses, now this is not the two-person world between him and Li Zhenzhen, and the mandarin duck chasing the wind is also in the car. He whispered, "I'm going to say hello to the two knights." With that, he walked to the carriage.
The middle-aged man who drove the car was also one of the famous mandarin duck heroes, the famous Li Yuanzhan, who was rumored to have reached the realm of the Nine Heavens, and his beloved wife Ouyang Susu's strength was not low, and she also had a sevenfold heaven cultivation. The relationship between the two husbands and wives is very good, and they have always been a famous fairy couple on the rivers and lakes, which makes people envious. The "Husband and Wife Mandarin Duck Sword" performed by the two of them is even more prestigious, and I don't know how many scum have been defeated.
Zhao Zheng naturally knew Li Yuanzhan, but seeing it with his own eyes, he felt very different.
Li Yuanzhan is tall and burly, with broad shoulders and thick back, but there is no fat on his body, a bunch of pieces are all muscles, and he is sharp and majestic. He was born strong, and he was heroic, full of heaven, round in the earth, with horizontal eyebrows, big nose and wide mouth, and although he did not wear armor, he was as majestic as a general galloping on the battlefield. He wore a blue scarf today, a hero's scarf on his head, and a cloak over his shoulders.
What a sturdy man!
Zhao Zheng secretly praised in his heart, and the image of a man in his mind was like this.
Looking at the pretty Li Zhenzhen, and then looking at the burly Li Yuanzhan, it is really hard to imagine that the two are father and daughter.
At the same time, Li Yuanzhan was also observing Zhao Zheng. In his eyes, this is a handsome and heroic junior, his body bones look thinner, but his eyes are blazing, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows are heroic, and his front and back are full of spirit.
"I have admired the name of the Mandarin Duck Hero who has been chasing the wind for a long time, and when I see it today, I am fortunate to have three lives. Junior, Zhao Zheng, meet the senior. Zhao Zheng clenched his fists and bowed, his attitude respectful.
"Little brother doesn't have to be polite, raise his face and speak." Li Yuanzhan opened his mouth and spoke, his voice was loud, like a morning bell ringing on a distant mountain temple.
"Yes." Zhao Zheng straightened up according to his words, looked at the famous knight opposite, and looked neither humble nor arrogant.
"It's the first time you've seen me, but it's the second time I've seen you. Last time Li Zhenzhen left home privately, my wife and I searched all the way, and after finding her, she mentioned you to us. We didn't show up at the time, but we looked at you from afar. Thank you so much for taking care of my daughter in those days. ”
"The seniors said seriously, I didn't take care of her in those days, but I was taken care of by her."
"What you did in those days, Zhenzhen told me later, although it can be regarded as a righteous act, but it is too chaotic, and it is not appropriate to take such risks in the future."
Zhao Zheng thought about it for a while, and guessed that Li Yuanzhan should be referring to dealing with the three other members, that thing did have a certain risk, with Li Zhenzhen making nonsense like this, presumably Li Yuanzhan, who was a father, must be a little unhappy in his heart. He said slightly apologetically: "The seniors taught us. ”
While the two were talking, another person peeked out from the carriage on the other side, a graceful little woman. Born with colorful eyebrows. Eyes are like autumn water. Delicate nose, red lips and white teeth, although he is older, he has more mature charm. Needless to say, this little woman is Ouyang Susu, another person in the Mandarin Duck Chasing Heroes.
"Brother Li, this is not a place to talk, and we are just going to have breakfast, so it is better to find a place to sit down and talk about it well. I think Zhenzhen is very close to this little brother. They must have a lot to say. Ouyang Susu said with a smile beside him. Because she and her husband are childhood sweethearts, they grew up together, and they have been commensurate with brothers and sisters all year round, so that they have not changed their words after marriage.
Li Yuanzhan took his beloved wife's suggestion and looked around, looking for a place to eat. Zhao Zheng happened to come out of the inn, so he invited the family to come close to the inn for dinner. The family's consent was obtained. Li Yuanzhan turned the carriage and walked all the way to the door of the inn. The carriage was bolted to the pillar.
A group of four people entered the inn together, and Zhao Zheng beckoned the shopkeeper over, ordered to prepare a table of good wine and food, and asked the Li family what they wanted to eat. He wanted to have a good meal, but now it was morning, and no one had much appetite, so the Li family only ordered some ordinary breakfasts, buns and noodles.
After the tea was served and the four of them sat down, everyone reopened the conversation box and continued to chat.
Li Zhenzhen took the lead in breaking the silence and asked curiously: "After we extorted 10,000 taels of silver from those three members, I was taken away directly by my parents, what happened later?" How are the three outsiders doing now? ”
"That's a long story, after you left, a lot of things happened between me and those three people, I'll tell you slowly." Zhao Zheng pondered for a while, determined the part that should be hidden, and then told the story of what happened later.
He talked about how he continued to deal with the three members, and how he was angry because of the murder of Ma'an's mother, and formed a mortal enmity with the three members. When it came to how to kill the three members, he didn't say it explicitly, but just scratched his neck to show that he was killed.
It was the three members who killed him for money, and even if he retaliated, it was reasonable, so he did not shy away from it, and he was not afraid to tell the Li family.
"Okay, that's how it happened, after imitating those three unique skills, the head of the Qishimen handed over Luo Xing to me according to the previous agreement, and I took him away. As for what happened after that, there is no need to go into details. After Zhao Zheng finished saying everything, he picked up the teacup, took a sip, and moistened his dry throat.
This story is not without twists and turns, in which it has passed, ups and downs, and dangers, Li Zhenzhen can't take her eyes off it, as if she is listening to a story.
Li Zhenzhen only thinks that this story is very interesting, but Li Yuanzhan and his wife have more thoughts.
If everything in this story is true, it proves that Zhao Zheng is decisive in killing, good and evil are clear, and he is ruthless when killing bad guys, but he only punishes evil and does not hurt the innocent, and he is still a good young man.
It is not a good thing for people who practice martial arts to be too weak or too violent, and understanding what can and cannot be done is the most important thing.
Zhao Zheng's criteria for doing things are quite in line with Li Yuanzhan's appetite, which makes his attitude towards Zhao Zheng better.
"You said you learned to swallow the sword, I haven't seen this yet, can you show me later?" Li Zhenzhen pleaded.
"Zhenzhen, don't be rude, that kind of unique activity is very dangerous, how can you let people perform casually." Li Yuanzhan glared.
"He's learned that trick, so what's the danger." Li Zhenzhen pouted.
"Swallowing the sword into the stomach, isn't it child's play, in case there are three long and two short, are you responsible?"
Li Zhenzhen was still not convinced, and wanted to continue to quarrel with her father, but her mother next to her pulled her and signaled her not to mess around, so she had to hold back her words.
The process of swallowing the sword was very uncomfortable, Zhao Zheng had never practiced this unique skill since he left Qishimen, and he was unwilling to perform for others. However, since Li Zhenzhen spoke, he decided to make an exception, but after performing this, it can increase the credibility of his words, so as not to make these two heroes mistakenly think that he is blowing nonsense.
"Two knights, since Li Zhenzhen wants to see it, then I'll perform it. Wait here, and I'll go upstairs and get the blunt sword for the show. Zhao Zheng stood up and gave a salute.
Li Zhenzhen was very happy after hearing it, and even said that it was good, and she just wanted to see the excitement. The two knights were worried about an accident and politely stopped them, but Zhao Zheng was full of confidence and asked the two knights not to worry, and then walked upstairs. At this point, the two knights couldn't say anything more.
Zhao Zheng returned to the house, opened the system warehouse, rummaged through it for a while, took out the dull sword that had been sealed for a long time, and wiped it well. He went downstairs with a blunt sword, since he was going to perform, he just performed in the middle of it, and he could be happy with a few cheers.
When he got downstairs, he summoned the innkeeper to the front and said that he wanted to put on a show, and after some negotiations, he obtained the shopkeeper's consent.
The shopkeeper asked the two shopkeepers to move a table to the center of the room, wipe it clean, and keep it for Zhao Zheng's temporary stage.
Zhao Zheng flew up and landed lightly on the table, without making a sound.
The front hall was originally messy, and the diners were only concerned about eating and chatting, and when they saw Zhao Zheng jumping on the table, they all turned their eyes over. The bustling front hall suddenly became quiet. (To be continued......)
PS: I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival, family reunion, and thank you to the two friends who gave away mooncakes.
