After arriving on the shore, Zhuge Shaorong rode a first-class war horse and walked in front to lead the way.

The town of Tang'an is very large, and it takes about an hour to walk to the courtyard on the north side, and if you go by horse, it will take you a quarter of an hour at most.

Yuan Zheng didn't ask who would lead the way for the Yue Nu Sword Sect later, thinking about it, the Yue Nu Sword Sect should be familiar with Tang'an Town.

Zhuge Shaorong said in front: "How do you feel when you come here for the first time?"

Yuan Zheng smiled inexplicably, this time it was not a tour of the mountains and rivers, no matter how good the feng shui of this place was, it was not Yuan Zheng's own.

The good or bad of a place also depends on the people of that place.

Yuan Zheng felt that Tang'an Town was neither good nor bad, but he couldn't say it directly, and whispered: "It's okay." ”

Zhuge Shaorong pursed his lips helplessly, he originally wanted to chat for a while, so it seems that Yuan Zheng is not a good person to chat with, probably people who have their own things, and they are divided into occasions when it comes to chatting nonsense.

Not long after, we arrived at the courtyard on the north side.

There are two plane trees planted in front of the door, the door is wide open, the yard is very spacious, but there is no rockery lake, and in the middle of the yard, a bamboo forest is planted.

In summer, the bamboo forest looks lush and lush, and sometimes a cool breeze seeps out of the bamboo forest.

Under the bamboo forest, there is a large table, on which five people sit.

Sitting on the main seat was a gray-haired old man, dressed in a dark green brocade robe, with a soft outline, no rough calluses on his palms, and his body bones looked very soft.

Zhuge Shaorong stepped forward and said with a hippie smile: "Grandpa, I brought someone here." ”

Yuan Zheng looked over, there was no one behind Ji Qingquan, there were two scholars behind Qi Yongnian, and behind Zhong Lifen there was a man in the prime of life who was about thirty years old, wearing light armor and imposing.

This old man, with a kind and angry face, looks like a kind-hearted old man.

People who may come here have not experienced the ups and downs on the rivers and lakes, and the ups and downs on the temples.

This is not what I expected, this old man is not the person who appeared on the invitation.

The old man got up, looked at Yuan Zheng, and said kindly: "Yuan Zheng Xiaoyou can come in person, I am here to be full of brilliance, I originally thought that you are busy with things these days, and you should not come." ”

Yuan Zheng bowed his head slightly and said, "Dare to ask the senior's surname?"

Asking the name of the person so directly, the old man was not angry, but responded more kindly: "The old man's surname is Zhuge again, and his name is Qingfeng." ”

"This little girl is my good granddaughter, Zhuge Shaorong. ”

Yuan Zheng sighed, there was not much reaction, the Jiangnan clan, Zhuge Qingfeng, the person in charge who wanted to come this time was Zhuge Qingfeng.

Zhuge Qingfeng made a gesture of invitation, Yuan Zheng did not refuse, walked to the table, and sat next to Ji Qingquan, only Ji Qingquan knew the people here, even if there was only one side.

Yu Chiyang followed Yuan Zheng and sat next to Yuan Zheng, pepper and fennel carried the sword box and stood quietly behind Yuan Zheng.

Zhuge Qingfeng added a cup of tea to Yuan Zheng and Wei Chiyang, and there are not many people in the world who can let Zhuge Qingfeng pour tea in person.

Yuan Zheng didn't think it was any honor, everyone's position was about the same, and it could be regarded as an alternative equal, although until now, Yuan Zheng didn't know why they invited him to this party in Jiangnan.

Qi Yongnian played with the teacup in his hand and looked at Yuan Zheng intentionally or unintentionally.

Probably Zhuge Qingfeng is here, and when he talks, there are many inconveniences.

Zhongli Fen is about fifty years old, his body is quite hard and strong, between his eyebrows and eyes, there is a heroic spirit, Yuan Zheng felt it slightly, this Jianghu senior's horizontal practice of kung fu should be home.

took a sip of tea slightly, and Yuan Zheng had no intention of greeting these seniors.

Seeing this, Zhong Li Fen was obviously a little displeased, and said: "I heard that the third son's kendo cultivation is amazing, and his martial arts cultivation is even better, and now he is thriving in Cangyun City, and he can be regarded as a young man's ambition, I don't know if I can teach a few tricks?"

Qi Yongnian and Ji Qingquan didn't say anything, it had nothing to do with them anyway.

Second, Zhong Lifen was originally a straightforward person.

Zhuge Qingfeng said: "Little brother, why do you bother, you are a young man, you have already reached the underworld, and you are afraid that you will lose your identity." ”

Zhong Lifen said indifferently: "I'm just curious, the true strength of this Gongzi brother, he is in the Dao Realm, I can suppress it in the Dao Realm, compare with him, the people of the Yue Nu Sword Sect have not yet come, and a few people are idle at this time, the taste of the tea is good, but the first cup tastes good, and the second cup tastes the same as Qingshui." ”

Yuan Zheng knew what Zhong Lifen meant, and said with a smile: "In terms of martial arts cultivation alone, I am indeed not your opponent, and if you fight in the same realm, you are afraid that you are not my opponent, why bother, it's not good for everyone to get together and drink tea, if it's for a fight, it seems that a few of us can't fight." ”

Everywhere you go, you have to worship the pier, in fact, this kind of thing depends on whether there is a need for it.

For example, this party, Yuan Zheng can't get any benefits in this party, in the original speculation, Yuan Zheng thought that Qi Yongnian would come here with the senior apprentices of the Jixia School Palace, thinking to see if he could buy a few talents from the Jixia School Palace.

Now, it's all in vain.

Zhuge Qingfeng is another person who suddenly appeared, which has made Yuan Zheng very unhappy.

Don't follow the rules.

If he knew that Zhuge Qingfeng was also here, Yuan Zheng would not have come here no matter what.

Every principal has an inertial thinking, that is, he wants the reader to do things for himself, but he doesn't want to cooperate with the reader, and he doesn't like the reader who suddenly appears.

Not at all.

Zhong Lifen glanced at the sword Prison Demon on Yuan Zheng's waist, and instinctively told him that this was an extremely dangerous sword.

He didn't mock, but said calmly: "Little guy, are you really so confident, you can easily defeat me in a battle with the same realm?"

Ji Qingquan closed his eyes and ignored him, he could mess around as much as he liked.

Zhuge Shaorong put his eyes on Yuan Zheng's body with great interest, daring to talk to Zhong Lifen so directly, among the young people, Yuan Zheng is afraid that he is also the first person.

The name of Shenyin Gate in the rivers and lakes is still relatively loud, the masters in the door are like clouds, Zhong Lifen is also a hard stubble, when he was young, he picked off many masters, and only then did he achieve today's fame.

But Zhong Lifen has never embarrassed young people, which has something to do with his demeanor.

However, when he meets a young man who is not very sensible, Zhong Lifen will also subconsciously adjust it, which has something to do with responsibility.

Yuan Zhengdao: "I don't want to have a war of words with you, if you don't think it's so refreshing, you and I can fight with the same realm, I don't care." ”

Zhongli was stunned, he felt that he was intuitive enough, this young man was even more direct than himself.

Qi Yongnian, who had not spoken, also laughed and said: "Okay, you two are fighting in the same realm, and you can distinguish between high and low, okay? We don't care, anyway, we are not afraid of big things when we look at the excitement." ”

Zhuge Qingfeng wanted to play a round, but he didn't know how to fight.

Almost at the same time, Yuan Zheng and Zhong Lifen left the act and came to the spacious bamboo forest, the two of them facing each other for a while.

This time, Yuan Zheng didn't plan to draw his sword, fight with the same realm, and use the prison demon, which is really a bit of a bully.

Seeing this, Zhong Lifen said calmly: "Young man, I will let you make three moves, you come first." ”

Wei Chiyang didn't look at it, but drank tea indifferently, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child, appearing on this table, was also a little abrupt, Qi Yongnian and Ji Qingquan both subconsciously paid attention to Yu Chiyang, good as flowing, neither humble nor arrogant.

Faintly, a bit of a king's spirit is revealed.

Such a young man has not been seen for many years, and he can still endure so much, and the past suffering has been digested.

Yuan Zheng didn't intend to be polite, and with a palm poking out, Zhong Li Fen suddenly felt that the gravity on his shoulders increased, and then, the two qi of yin and yang swirled, sealing the meridian acupoints up and down Zhong Li Fen's body, making him unable to use the true yuan, and then, a stout green dragon, carrying the power of thunder, fell from the sky and let out bursts of dragon groans.

Zhongli Fen's eyes widened, and he regretted letting Yuan Zheng make three moves, and shouted: "Stop, I admit defeat." ”

With a wave of Yuan Zheng's sleeves, the green dragon vanished, the meridians and acupoints up and down Zhong Lifen's body were unraveled, and between the two air flows of yin and yang, a vast heavenly universe could vaguely evolve.

For a young man in the Dao realm, Yuan Zheng has almost gone to the extreme.

Zhong Lifen praised: "I once heard that Canghai Liuhe is a first-class miracle in the world, and now I see it in person, and it really deserves its reputation, and after hearing that Dacheng, it is almost invincible in the world." ”

Yuan Zheng didn't answer Zhong Lifen with a smile, but said indifferently: "You and I fight in the same realm, you are not my opponent, that's because Canghai Liuhe has restrained your Tianxin Jue, two, if I draw my sword, you fight with me in the same realm, one face, I can make you disappear." ”

Zhongli Fen bowed slightly and said: "Teachable, you know that you are a young man, after coming here, you are not willing to bow your head, as the lord of the top of the clouds, this state of mind, I admire, everyone's position is about the same, there is no need for extra red tape." ”

"If you come here and greet everyone hypocritically, I won't fight with you, just quietly watch your digestion. ”

"Trembling, walking on thin ice, that's something that is done by scholars, we martial artists, naturally more direct, as long as we have enough confidence and hard fists. ”

Yuan Zheng bowed slightly and replied: "Thank you seniors for your advice, I will keep this favor in my heart today." ”

Regardless of the identities of several people, it has nothing to do with good or bad, good or evil, if you get along, you are friends, if you don't get along, you will be competitors in the future.

Even if gentlemen fight, they will not think of the old love.

Zhuge Shaorong watched it for a long time, but he didn't understand much what Zhong Lifen meant.

Zhuge Qingfeng still smiled kindly and didn't say a word.

At this age, I have met everything I should have met, and even what I shouldn't have met has met.

At this moment, a beautiful woman who looked to be about thirty years old walked in, this woman was tall, her skin was like cream, her white forehead was particularly conspicuous, slightly wide, but her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, her legs were slender, she was wearing a long white dress, holding an oil-paper umbrella, and she looked like she had come out of a painting.

She is Tan Qiu, the sect master of the Yue Nu Sword Sect.

She brought Song Yu here today, and in the inn on the outskirts of Nanyang County, Yuan Zheng and Song Yu also had a relationship.

Without Zhuge Qingfeng personally entertaining, Tan Qiu sat next to Qi Yongnian with his own accord.

At this point, everyone is here.

Zhuge Shaorong is responsible for serving tea and pouring water on the side, he is very well-behaved, but whenever he wants to meet important guests, Zhuge Old Man will bring his most beloved granddaughter with him, and he can chat and relieve boredom, but the next generation is the most dear.

This baby granddaughter, the old man Zhuge was very painful, when Pang Hong came to Jiangnan to propose, I heard that the old man Zhuge was depressed for several days.

Fortunately, that family business did not work out.

At this moment, Ji Qingquan opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know what the old man called us here?"

The corners of Yuan Zheng's mouth rose slightly, slightly bitter, it turned out that he was not the only one who came here to do something.

Zhuge Qingfeng smiled softly: "The situation between Great Qin and Great Wei has entered the stage of tension, in my opinion, maybe after the beginning of spring next year, there will be a war, and now our rivers and lakes of Great Wei are almost falling apart, and we have no intention of caring about the affairs of the temple." ”

"I also know that the temple may change many owners, but the rivers and lakes will always be the rivers and lakes. ”

"But we can't just watch the rivers and lakes of Great Wei, killing each other for the sake of profit, and making money everywhere. ”

This is just one of them, several of them have a pivotal position in the rivers and lakes, especially Yuanzheng Xiaoyou, who swept the rivers and lakes of the states and counties near Cangyun City, which the old man admired. ”

"I also plan to implore you to unify the rivers and lakes of our Great Wei, as for the division of oil and water at that time, or the distribution of positions, just look at it, the only thing you can do here, is only to provide some sharp weapons and silver. ”

"It's a reluctant invitation. ”

"This second thing, of course, is the temple thing, our majesty is still in the prime of life, just when the year, the third prince and the sixth prince have both ability and political integrity, and they all have a general attitude, but the two tigers fight, there will be an injury. ”

"Party disputes, we have no way to intervene, and try not to interfere, I just hope that in the future, if the Great Wei is really in trouble because of the battle for succession, no matter who comes to a high position in the future, I hope to treat our Wei people well." ”

Yuan Zheng frowned slightly, the third prince and the sixth prince, Yuan Zheng has never heard of it, in terms of seniority, the third prince and the sixth prince are Yuan Zheng's cousins, but unfortunately they have not seen it.

Before the arrival of the great dispute, there was even a dispute for the succession in the palace of Great Wei.

It should just be a sign, and who will be the emperor at that time has nothing to do with Yuan Zheng.

It's just that this old man Zhuge still has this heart, which is incomprehensible, in Yuan Zheng's impression, the Jiangnan family, which seems to have unlimited scenery, shouts for peace for all generations, but in fact they are some masters who can't afford to be profitable.

Could it be that this old man Zhuge can also see that in terms of national strength, Great Wei is not the opponent of Great Qin?

Even if the country is destroyed, such as Qi Yongnian, Tan Qiu, Zhong Lifen, and Ji Qingquan, the positions of these people will not be shaken, and the fierce people who can be higher than the temple will not be restrained in any era.

Qi Yongnian said with a smile: "What the old man means is that Great Wei can't beat Great Qin, take precautions, and come in advance to fight for some sovereignty for the people of our Great Wei, and at that point, the Jiangnan clan is still the Jiangnan clan, and the foundation will not be shaken." ”

"If Da Zhou and Da Wei fought, presumably the old man wouldn't be so worried. ”

The Qin people have a strong martial style, and so do the literati, the so-called Jiangnan clan, in the Great Qin royal family, I am afraid that they will not be able to get any good luck.

Zhuge Qingfeng smiled helplessly: "I have no right to interfere in the affairs of the temple, and I can only make up my mind in the rivers and lakes, I am indeed afraid that the scholars will not be able to withstand the destruction of the Great Qin Iron Cavalry, and I am also afraid that I and those old friends will not be able to protect future generations after death." ”

"I'm even more afraid, our Great Wei has become a Shura field, in addition to war, it is still war. ”

Great Wei was taken down by Great Qin, and if he wanted to come to Great Zhou and Great Xia, he would not stand idly by.

Once the melee begins, it is the common people who suffer, and the people who may benefit may also be the more intelligent people who have no way out.

Ji Qingquan said: "The affairs of the rivers and lakes, the rivers and lakes, the old man is too worried, he called over and beat the past, this world is such a big place, the saint does not die, the thief is not more, this is the reason." ”

"I'm not the kind of person who worries about the sky, having said that, Pang Zong's military career is only more ugly in the old Xishu, and in the rest of the places, it is also the same as the current martial king Yuan Tieshan guards, the Great Qin Iron Cavalry is indeed sharp, whether it can break through Cangyun City, I don't know yet. ”

"The old man has also worked hard to protect the Jiangnan family. ”

"At this time, it's too late to curry favor with us Jianghu people. ”

In fact, it is not very late, over the years, the old man has let his granddaughter practice kendo, which is also a manifestation of his good impression of the rivers and lakes.

However, the people in the rivers and lakes who have reached a certain height are no different from the important ministers in the temple, they are all more shrewd in their calculations, Zhuge Qingfeng's wishful thinking does not look loud, in fact, at that point, if the down-and-out clan is covered by the masters of the rivers and lakes, it is not daring to despise it.

Zhuge Qingfeng didn't remember it, and still smiled softly: "There is a little bit of selfishness, but you really bear it, and the long-term peace has been broken." ”

"Let's just think of us as tinkers, and when we get to that point, we will repair where it is broken. ”

Peace is broken, everything is broken.

Yuan Zheng took a look, this old man Zhuge is very dishonest, although the words are good, but there is no hard head to take out, even if the hard head is taken out, it will be a favor to the old man Zhuge in disguise.

When dealing with readers, you really have to be cautious everywhere.

Tan Qiu said: "The taste of tea is good, but I don't know the tea ceremony, doing something for the people is also chivalrous, but since ancient times, the common people are the masters of the trend, there is a reason for the troubled times, and there is a reason for the prosperous times." ”

"It's more important than anything else to go with the flow. ”

"I'm not a scholar, the old man is indeed kind-hearted, but he doesn't understand the rivers and lakes. ”

"The so-called rivers and lakes can never be unified, but the underworld gangs can be unified. ”

"Once the rivers and lakes are unified, it won't be interesting, the rules are formulated by your Confucians, but in fact, not many people like the rules. ”

"The sophistication of the people we follow has been set into a rule by your Confucianism, which is not a very pleasant thing in itself. ”

"If the old man really wants to do something for the people of Dawei, it is better to go out to the battlefield in command of the old man, and go to the battlefield to see it in person, everything will be clear. ”

"People live a breath, the Buddha fights for a stick of incense, whether there is a big Wei, for us, in fact, it is not so important, temples and rivers and lakes are essentially well water and do not violate river water. ”

"The rivers and lakes will not involve the dispute between the temples and the temples, and the dispute between the temples and the temples should not affect the rivers and lakes. ”

Zhuge Qingfeng still looked like he was moody, and said kindly: "So, are you going to stand by and watch?"

Yu Chiyang took a sip of tea, in terms of seniority, he really has no qualifications to speak here, but the war horse in his horse farm is his biggest hole card.

Smiled: "I am a businessman, I know very well what oil and water are, that is, distribution and redistribution, in the past peaceful years, there were few people in the government to do anything, most of them are the masters of the corpse vegetarian meal, at this juncture, those parents and officials should stand up, protect their children, discipline their children is the right thing." ”

"The people in the rivers and lakes are also people, but they are people who are at ease, not the eagle dogs of the court. ”

"The old man is a scholar, and he knows very well that if we do these things, we are not human beings, and we are sorry for our own interests and our ancestors. ”

"The hundred kingdoms are gradually being replaced by the four-legged tripod, and the four-legged tripod should also be unified. ”

"It's history, not man. ”

Life in the world, it depends on what era you have caught up, if it is a good era, you can make great achievements, you can do whatever you want.

If it is a bad era, resources are monopolized, and people are like walking corpses, and they can't do anything.

Qi Yongnian glanced at Wei Chiyang meaningfully, he was young, his ambition was not small, and he knew a lot about the truth.

This is the benefit of the people in the rivers and lakes, the wildness still exists, and it has not been tamed by the so-called civilization.

Zhuge Qingfeng did not show dissatisfaction with Yu Chiyang, and Zhuge Qingfeng had also heard of Yu Chiyang's past.

"Guys, do you really plan to go with the flow?" asked Zhuge Qingfeng with great difficulty.

Yuan Zheng thought about it and felt that there were some things that should not be too conservative, and then responded: "Otherwise?"
