Chapter 34: The Visitor
Zhang Chengxun said with a smile: "What my father taught me is that Chengxun is now in good health, and it is not natural for him to come to greet his father." ”
Zhang Jizu saw that when he spoke, his complexion was ruddy, his breathing was smooth, and he still looked like he was injured, so he put his mind at ease and said, "That's good, how about today's wedding banquet?" Did it go well? The latter sentence has turned to Jin Fengbai. The latter said in his heart: "At the beginning, two dog thieves came to make trouble, if it weren't for Brother Xie, maybe what would happen, would this be considered smooth?" But he still nodded and said: "Uncle Xie cares, it is very smooth, I know that my uncle is coming, I will specially prepare another banquet, let's go." ”
Zhang Jizu said with a smile: "This wedding wine is to be eaten." Jin Fengbai led Zhang Jizu and everyone to the inner courtyard, where a servant had already prepared a table of waiting for a banquet.
After everyone sat down, Zhang Jizu looked at Xie Guhong and asked, "Haven't you seen this chivalrous warrior before, isn't it your new good friend?" Without waiting for Xie Guhong to speak, Zhang Chengxun said on the side: "Father, didn't I go to Daodao Village in the north to do business some time ago, this is my newly recognized eldest brother, the owner of White Camel Villa, Xie Guhong, Brother Xie!" ”
Xie Guhong hugged his fists and said: "Under Xie Guhong, I have seen Uncle Zhang." ”
Zhang Jizu returned the salute when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Oh, I am very happy that my nephew can be friends with Cheng Xun, hey, it's a pity that your Baifeng Shenjun White Camel was robbed by those thieves." Speaking of the back, he was already resentful, and he was obviously more concerned about his own only seedling, Zhang Chengxun was injured by those people. Xie Guhong said: "Uncle Zhang, don't worry, I have already given credit to Brother Chengxun during the day, and he is no longer in the way at this time." ”
"Scattering?" When Zhang Jizu heard this, his heart was shocked, and he said secretly: "Could it be that my son's injury is so serious?" Do you have to abolish martial arts to get better? He asked urgently: "Nephew Xie Xian, the nephew of Feng Bai Xian wrote from Feng Bai Xian earlier that Chengxun's injury has stabilized, could it be that this time has deteriorated?" ”
Xie Guhong said: "It has not deteriorated, but the blood on his chest has accumulated between the meridians, and it will take three or five months to dissolve. ”
Zhang Chengxun explained the situation to his father in detail, and the woodcutter and others also added explanations on the side, and finally Yi Blind said: "Uncle, Brother Xie treats me like this and waits for the Central Plains Bayi, if I wait to repay it, it will be a foreign favor, but I don't know what my uncle thinks about Chengxun's worship in the White Camel Mountain?" ”
Zhang Jizu began to hear that Zhang Chengxun bought a fish intestine sword, he was already a little angry, and then his son entered the White Camel Mountain, how to be courteous by Xie Guhong, and how to maintain it at the mountain gate, he listened to the nod again and again, and then heard that Xie Guhong got the news that Zhang Chengxun was injured, and hurriedly came to visit, with gratitude in his heart, is that now he heard that Zhang Chengxun worshiped into the White Camel Mountain, and he can practice his martial arts again, how can he not agree? He opened his mouth and said: "Xie Xian's nephew wants my son to worship in the White Camel Mountain, it is really for the sake of Chengxun, how can the old man veto, but Chengxun, after you worship in the White Camel Mountain, you must respect the teacher and practice martial arts diligently, don't let down your Brother Xie for a hard time." ”
Zhang Chengxun nodded and said, "Father, don't worry, I will not forget the kindness of my eldest brother." Xie Guhong smiled: "In the future, I will be my own brother, how can I be so polite." ”
During the banquet, Zhang Jizu and Xie Guhong sincerely showed goodwill, Zhang Jizu said: "This apprenticeship is a big deal, I think it will be done?" Feng Bai Xian's nephew, there are still a few martial arts celebrities living in the house today, it is better to let Chengxun apprentice again at noon tomorrow, during this time, the old man visited these martial arts celebrities overnight, and let him come to watch the ceremony tomorrow, so as not to let people say that I did not respect the teacher. ”
Xie Guhong actually doesn't pay much attention to etiquette, there is a form, so that people know that White Camel Mountain has accepted apprentices. However, at this time, Zhang Jizu mentioned it, but it was difficult for him to refuse, so he nodded and agreed, and Zhang Chengxun and others did not allow it.
That night, in addition to a few martial arts celebrities who lived in Jinfeng Bai's house, there were more than a dozen fast horses who delivered letters overnight. Although it is a bit inappropriate to send a letter in the middle of the night, it is actually for a reason, and with the fame of the Central Plains Bayi and the Ten Thousand Animal Gardens in this place, there is no major matter.
Early the next morning, Xie Guhong was idle, because he was the one who was apprenticed, and he thought it was respectful, but he only waited in the incense hall set up in the backyard of Yititang. And Li Hongji, the big shopkeeper of White Camel Mountain here, received a letter last night, and came to the house early this morning to greet the guests at the door instead of Xie Guhong.
If you want to say that Xie Guhong at this time is not too famous in the martial arts, why not say that it is very big? Because although he didn't deliberately cover up the killing of Zhuge Gang and Yan Shuang*fei, it has not yet been completely spread. It's just that he took a pair of tricks from Qin Xiaoyi in one move, and everyone knows about it. is not too famous, and it can't be too big.
Zhang Chengxun and his father Zhang Jizu and Li Hongji greeted the distinguished guests in the martial arts at the door of Yititang, although this is not a garden of ten thousand animals, but what kind of friendship does Jin Fengbai have with them? Therefore what is the difference between that and the Garden of Animals?
Just as it was about to be noon, Zhang Jizu saw an old man about the same age as himself, got off the horse, and immediately clasped his fists and said, "Brother Wang, I'm very sorry, I must have been disturbed by my letter last night, right?" I can't help it! ”
The old man's face was full of red light, obviously his kung fu had reached a certain level, and he was carrying a gold-wire ring knife on his back, followed by two young men in strong suits, who should be a disciple of his sect;
The old man surnamed Wang laughed and said, "Today is a major event for the virtuous nephew to worship the teacher, do you want to disturb it?" Ay! It's just a good piece of material for the virtuous nephew, and your brother didn't let him enter my Golden Knife Gate at the beginning, and now I think about it, it's still very hot. ”
When Zhang Jizu saw his old friend playing with him, he laughed and said, "The fire is big? Haha, I'm going to fight with you during the banquet today, don't beg for mercy in front of the juniors. ”
When the old man surnamed Wang heard this, he pretended to be angry and said, "I don't know who is begging for mercy?" As he spoke, he ignored Zhang Jizu and walked in with the two doormen.
This morning greeted a lot of visitors, although it was only one night, but the martial arts characters who could come nearby were basically all present, such as the Golden Knife Gate, the Eagle Claw Gate, the Sanhe Gang, etc., not to mention nearly 100 people, which shows the prestige of the Ten Thousand Animals Garden and the Central Plains Bayi in this place.
Zhang Jizu and the others looked at the sky, and saw that it was almost noon, and the visitors were almost there, so they wanted to turn back to the inner courtyard, but suddenly, a few people heard a few sounds of "chop, chop, chop", and then looked at the red lacquered gate of the hall, and I don't know when three coins had been inlaid.
