On the evening of 8 August, Lan Qiyi and his entourage finally arrived at the city at the foot of Yingshan Mountain.

More than 100 years ago, at the end of the Eastern Dynasty, at the foot of the Ying Mountain, on the plain, the queen of the Wind Country, Feng Xiyun had led the wind and cloud cavalry to fight fiercely with the Janissary Army led by the Eastern Dynasty general Dong Shufang, at that time it was a deserted land, at that time it was stained red by the blood of the soldiers, buried the bones of countless heroic souls, it was a desolate and sad place, but more than 100 years later, it is a prosperous and prosperous small city ——— the city.

"The day after tomorrow is the Yingshan Conference, this young man will go to meet friends first, a few brothers will please, let's meet again on Yingshan."

After entering the city, he got off the carriage, and a soft sedan car picked up Lan Qi.

"Second son, the eldest lady ordered me to wait to pick you up."

As soon as Lan Qi left, another small sedan chair approached.

"Then I'll leave you for now." Ming Eryi hugged his fists and left.

The remaining Yuwen brothers and Ning Lang looked at each other, thinking that these two people were too ruthless, and they had to walk together for so many days, and now they left everyone and left by themselves.

"Let's find an inn first, Brother Lie will ...... with us" Yu Wenluo said while asking for Lie Chifeng's opinion, who knew that when he turned his head, he was gone, "Huh?" Where is he? ”

"Why did it disappear all of a sudden?" Ning Lang was also strange.

The three of them stood on the street and looked left and right, where was the shadow of Lie Chifeng, and they were disappointed, but a group of people came in front of them, the first one was a very majestic middle-aged man, and the Yuwen brothers couldn't help but be happy and sad when they saw it.

The middle-aged man and the few people behind him saw them and were also stunned, "You two are here." ”

The Yuwen brothers stepped forward, bowed in unison and saluted, "Daddy." ”

Later, Ning Lang looked at this scene and thought to himself: It turned out to be the eldest brother's father, who really looked like Brother Yuwen, but the eldest brother was not like it.

"Hmm." Yuwen Lindong, the head of the Yuwen family, nodded, "Where are you from?" Feng'er, I heard that you were very rude in Changtian Mountain Villa, what the hell is going on? ”

"Daddy, this is a long way to go, let's find an inn to settle down first, the child is very hungry." Yu Wenluo took the lead.

"You know how to eat, and you don't see any growth after eating!" Yuwen Lindong raised his brows and looked at his youngest son.

"Are you really hungry?" Yu Wenluo hung his head and muttered.

Yu Wenfeng glanced at his younger brother and said: "The fifth brother has grown a lot in the rivers and lakes, the second son of Ming, Lan Qishao, and the third master of Lie all regard him as a friend, and my father should be happy." ”

"Oh?" Yuwen Lindong's face was surprised when he heard this, his youngest son with low martial arts skills could actually make friends with the top figures of the younger generation such as Ming Er, Lan Qi, and Lie San, and couldn't help but nod approvingly, his eyes turned and fell on Ning Lang, "Who is this?" ”

"He is the younger brother of the child, a member of the Qianbi faction, and the young master of the Ning family in Lanzhou, Ning Lang." Yu Wenluo hurriedly introduced, and explained his background clearly, saving his father from asking again.

"Ning Lang pays a visit to Yuwen Shibo." Ning Lang stepped forward to salute.

"Well, there's no need to be polite." Yuwen Lindong looked at Ning Lang carefully, then nodded again and said, "Luo'er, this brother of yours is much stronger than you. ”

"Yes." Yu Wenluo was very happy when he heard this, and his father rarely praised his friend.

"Daddy, it's getting dark, let's find an inn to settle down first." Yu Wenfeng said. It's too conspicuous for so many people to stand out on the street.

"Hmm." Yuwen Lin Dong Jaw Head.

A few people asked for a few rooms in an inn, and asked for a table of wine and food in the lobby to fill their bellies. In the meantime, Yuwen Lindong asked Yuwenfeng about the matter of Changtian Villa, Yuwenfeng only said that his skills were not as good as others and he was defeated by Lan Qishao, and as for Changtianzhuang's loss of honor, he would apologize to his predecessors in the future. When asked about Yuwenluo, he replied simply, saying that after leaving home, he met Ning Lang and became brothers, and later heard that "Lan Yin Biyue" was lost, so they came to Yingshan to see the excitement, and on the way they happened to meet Lan Qi, Ming Er, and Lie San, and they took care of Lan Qi's carriage all the way, and they had something to do when they arrived in the city. As for following the sect to seek revenge on Yu Wenfeng, he didn't say anything when he saw that his eldest brother didn't say a word.

After eating, it was already dark, Yuwen Lindong called Yuwen Feng into his room, it is estimated that there is still something to say, Yuwen Luo saw that he did not make himself easy, and he asked for a big room to live with Ning Lang, at this time the two went back to the room, asked for hot water and took a shower respectively, fell on the big bed, and planned to sleep well, but who knew that they couldn't sleep.

"Ning Lang, let's talk." Yu Wenluo nodded to the lamp.

"Okay." Ning Lang got up and sat cross-legged on the bed.

Yu Wenluo picked up the teapot and teacup and put it on the small table at the head of the bed, and then climbed onto the bed and sat down cross-legged.

"Big brother, have you ever been to Yingshan before?" Ning Lang asked.

"Nope." Yu Wenluo replied, pouring two cups of tea on one side, "This is the first time I have participated in the Yingshan Conference, and the heroes of all walks of life in the martial arts on Yingshan Mountain will gather in the future, and the scene will be more spectacular than the Changtian Mountain Villa." ”

"Yes, I may be able to see my senior brother the day after tomorrow." Ning Lang remembered that he could see his fellow senior brother who had been absent for a long time, and he was very happy.

"By the way, Ning Lang, I have one thing to ask you that you always forgot." Yu Wenluo handed him a cup of tea.

"What does Big Brother want to ask?" Ning Lang took the tea and asked.

"There are rumors in Wulin that the founders of your Ning family and Qianbi are both from the royal family of the previous dynasty, is it true?" Yu Wenluo asked while taking the pen and paper, never forgetting his own responsibility.

Ning Lang, who had never been long-sighted, was silent for a moment before he replied softly, "So to speak." ”

"Oh?" Yu Wenluo's eyes lit up, and his gaze was fixed on Ning Lang.

"Our family has a genealogy, and every descendant is named after birth, which is kept by each generation of the head of the family. When I was four years old, my father sent me to study art in Qianbi Mountain, and before he left home, he showed me the family tree and pointed to the first name to teach me to recognize the three words 'tranquility and distance'. Daddy said that every descendant of the Ning family should know where they came from. ”

"Ah, I know who he is!" Yu Wenluo exclaimed excitedly, "He was one of the seven founding generals of the Eastern Dynasty, and was later divided into Ning Kingdom as the king by the First Emperor. ”

Compared with Yu Wenluo's excitement, Ning Lang was very calm, "Well, although the ancestor was the founder of the Eastern Dynasty, but more than two hundred years ago during the reign of Emperor Li, another ancestor was a traitor of the Eastern Dynasty, he waved his army to kill God and wanted to replace the emperor, and was later suppressed by Emperor Jing who gathered the army of six countries, and that ancestor was finally defeated and committed suicide, and Ning was also divided by other countries. Speaking of the family's tragic past, the honest Ning Lang's expression was also a little somber.

"I also know this, there is it in the history books." Yuwen Luo said, stabbing Ning Lang's arm, "Then what about later, how did the Ning family enter the martial arts?" ”

"The people of the Ning clan who escaped are all sinners, so they all changed their surnames and names, so many years passed, at the end of the Eastern Dynasty, there was a pair of brothers among the descendants of the Ning family who put themselves into the seat of Feng Lanxi, the king of Fengguo, the eldest brother is called Ren Chuanyu, the younger brother is called Ren Chuanyun, their brothers wanted to help the king pacify the troubled times and unify the country to build a great cause, who knows that half of the mountains and rivers have been in the palm, but the king of Xi has abandoned the throne and retreated, the two brothers have all failed in their ambitions, and they do not want to serve the two masters, and they no longer care about who is in the world, After being placed in the Aspishan by the King of Xi, he lived there. Ning Lang said that he stopped here.

"I also know this, these two brothers are Ren Chuanyu, the military advisor of King Xi, and Ren Chuanyun, one of the four generals of Moyu, the 'General Chuanyun', they are all famous characters in the history books." Yu Wenluo looked at Ning Lang with sparkling eyes. His sworn brothers turned out to have such a big background, and their ancestors were all big names who left their names in history! "And then? Say it. ”

"Big brother, I'm thirsty, let me drink saliva first." Ning Lang grunted and drank a cup of tea in a few sips.

"Let's finish drinking, let's talk about it." Yuwen Luo looked at Ning Lang with blank eyes.

"Hmm." Ning Lang continued, "Later, the new dynasty was established, and the two brothers no longer had to hide their ancestral surname, and the younger brother Ren Chuanyun restored his original surname and returned to the ancestral land of the Ning family——— the original capital of the Ning Kingdom ——— the current Lanzhou, where he married a wife and had children, and it is our Ning family to this day." And the elder brother Ren Chuanyu said that the surname 'Ren' also sheltered them for many years, so he did not change his surname according to the original name as a memory, his life's great wishes came to fruition, and he was disheartened and did not want to return to his hometown and no longer care about the affairs of the world, so he lived in Qianbi Mountain. Qianbishan was originally the recuperation palace of the wind royal family, and the guardian of this palace was the first master of the queen of the wind country, and the two of them lived in the same Qianbishan, and they were both relict ministers, plus the relationship between the two kings of Fengxi, so they became good friends. Folding flute is rare in the world, and has received a lot of apprentices, Ren Chuanyu has the talent of the country but is useless, so he helped the folding flute to play the palace to teach the apprentices, and over time, it has become a light blue faction. After saying that, he quickly poured himself another cup of tea.

"It turns out that this is how the Ning family and the Qianbi faction came." Yu Wenluo suddenly realized, "No wonder the Ning family and Qianbi have always advanced and retreated together for more than a hundred years, but in fact, they are originally a family." ”

"yes." Ning Lang took a sip of water before saying, "Most of the descendants of the Ning family will be sent to Qianbi Mountain to learn art, and this has been the case from generation to generation, so the affection has continued." ”

Yu Wenluo hurriedly recorded it, and asked again: "Eh, why do you say that Lan Qishao and the second son of Ming must list the third master to come to Yingshan?" ”

Ning Lang thought for a while and said, "Because 'Lan Yin Biyue' has disappeared, they hope that the third master can also help." ”

Hearing this, Yuwen Luo glanced up at Ning Lang and shook his head, "Only you would think like this." ”

"Isn't that so?" Ning Lang was puzzled. Wasn't the third master of Lie moved by the earnest words of the second son of the Ming Dynasty who learned from his predecessors and contributed to the martial arts?

After Yu Wenluo finished recording, he put the pen and paper aside, and said disappreciatively: "I see, it's better to say that Lan Qishao and the second son of Ming really want to see the third master of Lie embarrassed." ”

"Huh?" Ning Lang was stunned, a little unconvinced.

Yu Wenluo shook his head and looked at him with a sigh, "It's simple-minded." After a while, he asked again, "What kind of person do you think the second son is?" ”

Ning Lang thought about it again before he said, "Good man." ”

"It's that simple?" This time Yu Wenluo stared.

"The second son is a good person." Ning Lang nodded affirmatively, thought about it but didn't know what words to express, so he had to say, "He is very good to everyone, he is a good person." And when he was in Mengshan, Brother Yu Wenfeng treated him like that, he was not annoyed and helped out, and healed his eldest brother, no matter how unacceptable Qi Shao's words and deeds were, he could treat him calmly and politely, he was really a broad-minded person. ”

Yu Wenluo also nodded again and again when he heard this, "That's the case, it's just ......"

"Just what?" Ning Lang was a little puzzled by Yu Wenluo's bewildered face.

Yu Wenluo thought for a while and said, "From his appearance to his words and deeds, he is simply what everyone in the world yearns for, and everyone will hope that they are like him." There is a family, a handsome and dusty appearance, a superb martial arts, a smart mind, and a convincing demeanor......" As he spoke, he looked at Ning Lang with some confusion, "Ning Lang, you are also a very good person, I can see it when I see it, but I can't see the second son clearly, he is too perfect, which makes people feel unreal." ”

"Unreal?" Ning Lang was also confused by what he said, "He really exists, and we have been walking together for such a long time, we have all met him, is it obviously a person of flesh and blood." ”

"Not this!" Yu Wenluo lowered his head in frustration, "It's really a waste of effort to tell you." ”

"Big Brother ......"

"Forget it, go to sleep."

The two turned off the lights and lay down, and after a while, drowsiness hit and they fell asleep.

Tonight there are many people in the city who sleep late.

There was still a bright lamp in a house in the south of the city, and under the lamp, Lan Qi was looking through the booklet in his hand very carefully, and there was a person standing three steps away.

"Lan Wei, in the past six months, you have done a good job." Lan Qi read it and put down the booklet.

Lan Wei secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Follow the instructions of the seventh young man, don't dare to make a mistake." ”

"Hmm." Lan Qi nodded, shook the jade fan, and his eyes fell on Lan Wei, "You and Ben Shao are the longest, you know the principles of Ben Shao, you will be rewarded for doing things well, and you will be rewarded for doing errands...... The end of the note slowly dragged on, and the one who didn't say anything behind just smiled faintly, and said after a while, "This time Lan Min has come out with Ben Shao, and she will stay here to help you." ”

Hearing this, Lan Wei suddenly raised his head, and looked at his master in surprise and disbelief, "Seven Shao! ”

Lan Qi didn't seem to see Lan Wei's excited appearance, let go of the jade fan and picked up the teacup on the table, blew open a piece of tea on the tea surface, took a sip slowly, and then said very softly: "I heard that the fifth child has been to the city?" ”

Lan Wei's heart jumped and startled, the ecstasy of the previous moment disappeared in an instant, he stood up straight, looked at Lan Qi, and said calmly and calmly: "Lan Wei has always had only one master, and that is Qi Shao." ”

"Heh......" Lan Qi smiled lightly, and there was a faint smile in his blue eyes, "It's just to ask you, why are you so nervous." ”

"Seven less." Lan Wei lifted his robe and knelt on his knees, "Six years ago, Lan Wei swore allegiance to Qishao, and it will not change in this life." ”

"Lan Wei." Lan Qiyu slapped a little in his palm, and then reached out to help Lan Wei up, "Get up." ”

Lan Wei got up.

"If you don't use Ben, you won't doubt you." Lan Qiyi smiled evilly, but there was no hint of joke in his blue eyes, "However, Ben Shao doesn't like your self-righteous and well-intentioned deception, understand?" This "do you understand" has brought a chill.

"Yes." Lan Wei hung his head.

"Hmm." Lan Qi nodded with satisfaction.

There was a moment of silence in the room, Lan Wei stood with his head down, Lan Qi sat in the chair and held the jade fan in his hand, his blue eyes looked at the lamp burning in front of the table, and after a while, he seemed to say to himself: "There are only a few people left, and they are still restless, do you have to kill them all to be honest." ”

The voice was very light and even gentle, but the ruthlessness in the words made Lan Wei shiver secretly. has been with him for six years, what kind of means have not been seen, isn't that kid just stepping on blood all the way to have the leisurely appearance sitting in front of him at this moment? Without that blood, how could the child have survived?

"Lan Wei."

"Hmm." Lan Wei hurriedly came back to his senses.

"Tomorrow I will go to the account room to get three thousand gold leaves, and Lan Min wants to stay, of course he has to buy it." Lan Qi smiled faintly.
