Chapter 5, the cave in the stone
Shangguan Xiaoxian sighed lightly and said, "It seems that you don't really want to come to see me, but want to see that legendary figure in the rivers and lakes 'Xiao Li Flying Knife' Li Xun ~ Huan." ”
"Who doesn't want to see the most famous legend on the rivers and lakes twenty years ago, 'Little Li Flying Knife' Li Xunhuan? But I didn't come to the Money Gang because of him, and I don't want to say that a second time. Ignoring this, Jun Xiaoran replied softly.
The woman's mood was as gloomy and uncertain as the weather, and Shangguan Xiaoxian, who was still sad just now, changed her bright and bright smile again, and said with a smile: "I believe that Jun Xiaoran disdains to lie to women, your news is really well-informed, it is true, Li Xun~ Huan and his wife Lin Shiyin came to Jinzhou City to meet my father, as for the reason, I don't know very well, but you can ask my father at the banquet." ”
Jun Xiaoran followed Shangguan Xiaoxian and looked at the dining place, shook his head and said, "I'm not stupid enough to mention Xiao Li Feidao Li Xunhuan in front of your mother, it is no less than setting yourself on fire." ”
"Hehe, it seems that you have a very deep study of our family, say, what are the plans?" Shangguan Xiaoxian smiled and groaned with a posture of wanting to twist Jun Xiao to dye his clothes, and he was imposing.
A light smile overflowed Jun Xiaoran's cold face, like a gentle drizzle. "Any plot will not escape the eyes of our Miss Shangguan, why are we Miss Shangguan still afraid that there will be villains who can play tricks in front of you?"
A heroic laugh rang out.
"Our smart and wise Miss Shangguan is naturally not afraid of anyone or anything, not to mention that our Miss Shangguan is infatuated with Mr. Jun, how can we be afraid of Mr. Jun playing tricks?" When the voice landed, Shangguan Xiaoxian was shocked to realize that he was chatting with Jun Xiaoran so engrossed that his father Shangguan Jinhong quietly came without knowing it.
Shangguan Xiaoxian knew even if he didn't have to think about it, Jun Xiaoran, a martial arts master, must have heard the footsteps of his father Shangguan Jinhong. It's just that it's not publicized.
Jun Xiaoran smiled slightly, he found an interesting thing, Shangguan Xiaoxian was like a mouse meeting a cat after seeing Shangguan Jinhong, but in Jun Xiaoran's eyes, Shangguan Jinhong did conform to the image of the leader of the money gang, powerful and tall. Deep and profound, eloquent and strategic, but it doesn't look like a strict father who is not a godfather, but a bit of a loving father.
Although it is about to enter winter and the weather is slightly cold, Shangguan Jinhong still set up the place of hospitality in the pavilion in the backyard, and under the guidance of Shangguan Jinhong, the three of them walked less than 100 steps to the pavilion where Jun Xiaoran had just enjoyed the game - Qingfeng Pavilion.
Lin Xian'er dressed up to attend, and a group of maidservants stood behind her. The stars hold the moon.
Braziers, tea, and pastries are all available.
Four sturdy manservants stood around the gazebo, slightly bent over, with a posture of being ready to do things at any time. A group of maidservants stood behind Lin Xian'er, who stood under the pavilion plaque and greeted Jun Xiaoran with a smile.
Jun Xiaoran is not stupid, it can be seen that both Lin Xian'er and Shangguan Jinhong attach importance to him. The lord of the gang personally greeted a hundred steps away, and as the wife of the gang leader, he stood up to greet him. This kind of treatment, even Zhuge Gang and Xiang Song, who have followed Shangguan Jinhong's side for many years, have never had this kind of treatment.
According to the reliable information obtained, Jun Xiaoran understands that the Money Gang is a very peculiar gang organization. As far as the first article of the gang is concerned, it can be regarded as very peculiar, which reads: "Any disciple who has the ability and can convince the people can be in a high position, even if he is in the position of the leader of the gang." ”
Therefore, this can be said to be extremely rare among the huge gangs, and it can even be regarded as unique. But there's more to the Money Gang than that. Instead, it really says that there will be at least four intra-gang changes in the Money Gang every year, and things like a subordinate becoming a superior happen almost every day in the Money Gang.
Therefore, in the face of the grand courtesy of Shangguan Jinhong and Lin Xian'er, Jun Xiaoran did not make a fuss and was flattered. It's a very natural seat. At this point, Shangguan Jinhong saw it in his eyes and nodded.
Although Shangguan Jinhong knew that the possibility of Jun Xiaoran defecting to the Money Gang was very small, it did not prevent him from praising some young heroes who were both capable and empty-sighted, just like Shangguan Jinhong's own words: If a hegemon cannot face up to his own shortcomings and admit the advantages of his opponent, it will be difficult to achieve hegemony after all.
Ten altars of fine wine are placed on the benches around the pavilion, there are the most widely publicized daughter red in the rivers and lakes, and there are bamboo leaf green wine that literati and scholars like, as well as Longquan wine, Du Kang wine and many others. There are seven or eight kinds of delicately made pastries on the table, and as for the wine and dishes, they are on the table under the flow of a group of maidservants, there are cool and delicious pasta dishes and spicy-based dishes, plus Lin Xian'er is graceful on one side, and her words are elegant, natural and cordial introduction, this banquet Jun Xiaoran did not find any unhappy, and it can really be regarded as a home away from home.
Jun Xiaoran and Shangguan Jinhong clinked glasses again and again, and Lin Xian'er, who was the first beauty in the rivers and lakes twenty years ago, revealed a little profound words from time to time to talk about him and his daughter Shangguan Xiaoxian.
However, this banquet did not lead the topic to Xiao Li Feidao Li Xunhuan, the most popular person in the world twenty years ago, and did not lead this topic to Jun Xiaoran's knowledge about Xiao Li Feidao and Li Xunhuan's upcoming money gang.
After drinking and eating, Lin Xian'er left with Shangguan Xiaoxian, and at the same time took almost all the maidservants, only four sturdy male servants stood around, and only Shangguan Jinhong and Jun Xiaoran were left in the pavilion in an instant.
After confirming that Lin Xian'er and Shangguan Xiaoxian really left, Shangguan Jinhong added two glasses of wine, one of which was handed to Jun Xiaoran, and said very gratefully: "I don't want anyone to mention Li Xun~Huan in front of me, and I don't want anyone to mention Li Xun~Huan in front of my wife, you didn't mention it, so I want to thank you." ”
Jun Xiaoran took the wine glass and drank it all.
"You don't have to thank me, for I want to know about it, and therefore I am not so foolish as to mention it in front of your wife, for I know that if I had mentioned it in your wife's presence, I would probably never have known what I wanted to know from you."
Shangguan Jin Hong smiled heroically, stood up suddenly, Jun Xiaoran held the wine glass meaningfully, and put on a defensive posture, but this posture was not put out and was retracted under the suppression of Jun Xiaoran's reason. This scene naturally fell into Shangguan Jinhong's eyes, he was not stingy and handed Jun Xiaoran an appreciative look, and said softly: "You are indeed the smartest and wisest young man I have ever seen in the rivers and lakes over the years, if you have a big life, maybe you will be the next one to seek defeat." ”
Jun Xiaoran smiled, stared at Shangguan Jinhong, and said seriously: "You are wrong, there is only one Dugu in the world who seeks defeat, and there is only one Jun Xiaoran." ”
Shangguan Jinhong clapped his hands and sighed: "Good ambition, Xiaoxian really didn't mistake you." Immediately, Shangguan Jinhong walked out of the pavilion, and Jun Xiaoran did not hesitate and followed.
The people who followed Shangguan Jinhong were not only Jun Xiaoran, but also four strong male servants. What are these male servants doing with Shangguan Jin Hong, why did Shangguan Jin Hong allow these male servants to follow behind them, is Shangguan Jin Hong not ready to tell him the answer, or are there other reasons.
Jun Xiaoran is a suspicious person, and all the chaotic thoughts poured into his heart for a while, but fortunately, Jun Xiaoran is Jun Xiaoran, but after these thoughts came to his heart, he was forced to analyze it by Jun Xiaoran with that outrageous reason: This place is Shangguan Jinhong's territory, if Shangguan Jinhong wants to deal with him, he doesn't need to use so many flashy means.
Although Jun Xiaoran didn't want to admit it, he could only honestly admit that when he entered Jinzhou City, the situation between him and Shangguan Jinhong became that he was a fish and a knife.
There is a rockery in the backyard, under the leadership of Shangguan Xiaoxian, Jun Xiaoran also walked a few laps from this rockery, but this road is a road that Jun Xiaoran has not walked, this road is set up in the rockery, when Shangguan Jinhong moved away from the organ, Jun Xiaoran only saw this dark road.
The four sturdy manservants lit the four torches that had already been prepared, because the tunnels were so dark that it was difficult to see the ups and downs of the road without them. At this time, Shangguan Jinhong, who had been silent on the road, pointed to the depths of the dark passage and said slowly: "The answer you want to know is inside." ”
Under Shangguan Jinhong's smiling eyes, Jun Xiaoran did not hesitate, waved his hand and made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Please Shangguan help the master lead the way." ”
This should not be regarded as an important secret of the Money Gang, but it is definitely one of Shangguan Jinhong's most important secrets. This secret passage is very deep, and various mechanisms are arranged around it, obviously Shangguan Jinhong has spent a lot of thought on the arrangement of this secret passage.
The four sturdy male servants walked in front with fire sticks, while Jun Xiao was dyed with Shangguan Jinhong following closely behind, and the dark passage was not only dark, but also very damp, and even smelled moldy, and there were even depressions in some places.
Fortunately, the road is not very long, only less than 100 meters.
At the end of the tunnel was a stone door, bound by a chain with a thick arm, and the only key was on Shangguan Jinhong.
Opening the chains and pushing open the stone door, Jun Xiaoran finally saw the long-lost secret.
Inside the stone gate is a stone chamber.
To be precise, this is not just a stone chamber, it can be said that this is a cage.
The four servants stood on both sides of the stone gate, and Shangguan Jinhong walked into the stone gate first, and the inside of the stone gate and the outside of the stone gate were almost two worlds. There is light inside the stone gate, but there is only darkness outside the stone gate.
Jun Xiaoran also walked into the stone gate, but he didn't take a deep breath like Shangguan Jinhong when he returned home, and his whole body relaxed. And Jun Xiaoran is in a very vigilant state of the whole body, except for a chair and a bed in the stone room, there is nothing but one person, a man wearing very gorgeous clothes, and his gestures are very majestic and domineering.
"What the hell does this mean?" Jun Xiaoran's face was impassive, and he pondered in his heart.
At this time, Shangguan Jinhong's words came into Jun Xiao's ears. Shangguan Jinhong pointed at the man with extraordinary demeanor and said, "This is the answer you want to know." (To be continued......)
