Chapter 31: Helian Tingfang

Lian can almost be called the oldest existence of Wu State, but also the most prosperous swordsman family, when the Sword Soldier Mansion was first built, the first lord of the house was the patriarch of the Lian clan Lian Shuangyuan, this person was assisted in the founding of Qi Guan, and was deeply relied on by Qi Guan, and even the birthplace of Lian Shuangyuan was changed to the original county.

However, it is also because of Lian Shuangyuan's appointment as a swordsman, which led to the largest split in the Lian clan for thousands of years, this division is the different attitudes of the Lian clan towards the worship of the swordsman and the ancient swordsman, some people think that the worship of the swordsman is the sword in the hands of the powerful, and he is willing to be driven by others for the sake of power and wealth, which violates the spirit of swordsmanship, but the opponents think that the ancient swordsman is arrogant and self-controlled, and refuses to bow to the powerful, and sooner or later he will be jealous of the powerful, and the sword that cannot be held in his hands will not be feared, especially the ancient swordsman who always robs the rich and helps the poor, killing corrupt officials, and punishing adulterers, living and getting rid of it is a typical example of chivalry and forbiddenness, and sooner or later it will be a death.

Neither of the two parties could convince anyone, and in the end, the Lian clan split, and the worship faction led by Lian Shuangyuan stayed in Yuan County, and the other faction went away to Nandi He County, calling themselves Helian clan. However, whether it is the original county Lian's or Hexian Lian's, outsiders will not distinguish between them, and they are still called the original county Lian's, which is really because Lianshuang's original fame is too great.

Helian Loufang didn't get angry when he heard it, but just corrected with a smile: "It's Hexian Lian's." ”

Shen Bikong listened to their questions and answers, touched his chin, and felt very strange, the swordsman of the Helian clan, he had seen and cooperated with him, and remembered that the swordsman of the Helian clan was very rigid and harsh on himself, wearing kudzu clothes, eating coarse rice, and smiling little, just like the ascetics of Buddhism, but the swordsman of the Helian clan in front of him seemed to love to laugh very much, so he said a few words, and he almost laughed twice for each sentence.

Zheng Fu was probably used to seeing swordsmen, but he rarely saw ancient swordsmen, and he was very curious about Helian Loufang, so he leaned over and asked with a smile, and seeing that the time was almost time, he generously invited Helian Loufang to the wine shop.

Hao Lian Loufang also has a bold personality, and he couldn't stand Zheng Fu's hospitality, so he nodded and agreed, and the group walked to the nearest wine shop, asked for a seat near the window, sat around the case, Zheng Fu took a bag of money, and asked the store to take the best wine and food.

Shen Bikong couldn't eat and drink, so he asked for a glass of warm water, leaned against the window and listened to Zheng Fu and Helian Lou Fangkan Mountain with a smile, the ancient swordsman measured the world with his feet, naturally he was well-informed, and it was rare that Zheng Fu, the inner prisoner, could actually chat with him.

Although Bai Jue really wanted to talk to Helian Lou Fang, he didn't have those insights, so he could only listen obediently.

Although Zheng Fu was enthusiastic about Helian Loufang, he didn't forget to pull Shen Bikong, although he didn't say much when he saw Shen Bikong, no matter when he pulled Shen Bikong, this young man could lightly pull the topic to a deeper place, and he couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

This trip out, it was a casual encounter with a person, all of them were extraordinary, sure enough, he had been in Wudu for a long time, and his vision was shallow, and he knew how big the world was after coming out.

At this time, it was already three rounds of drinking, Zheng Fu was shallow, and when he was seven or eight points drunk, he pulled Shen Bikong's sleeve and said, "Gu Gongzi, you ...... You are really the most knowledgeable person I have ever met, after returning to the capital, you can enter the palace with me, and I will recommend you to Your Majesty, and you will be ...... It will live up to your learning. ”

Being able to easily bring the topic to a deeper level proves that Shen Bikong's insight is still above him, and Zheng Fu really admires it.

"Hey, who do you think you are?"

Before Shen Bikong could answer, Bai Jue first sighed at Zheng Fu, a small inner prison person, he actually dared to say that he was unashamed to say that he was recommended, and he laughed to death.

Zheng Fu slapped the table and said, "I said I could, go and go, I'll talk to your son-in-law, what are you talking about." ”

After finishing speaking, he sighed to Helian Lou Fangzhi, if it weren't for the fact that this was an ancient swordsman, he would have recruited it for His Majesty.

"Ahem, Sheren is drunk and talking nonsense."

Two entourages who followed Zheng Fu stepped forward with embarrassment, one helped Zheng Fu and quietly pinched his waist, and the other was busy explaining.

Shen Bikong smiled, waved his hand and said, "I know that he is drunk, and his eyes are so confused that he can't see people clearly, so you can help Zheng Sheren go back to the post house to rest first." ”

The two entourages were like being amnestied, and hurriedly helped Zheng Fu left and right.

As soon as Zheng Fu left, Bai Jue got a chance, his eyes were shining and he wrapped around Helian Loufang, and asked, "Uncle Helian, are you a swordsman, are you good at swordsmanship?" Which one is stronger or Uncle Luo? ”

Helian Loufang glanced at Luo Feng, who was standing behind Shen Bikong with a dead face, and said with a smile: "Swordsmen don't say victory or defeat, they only talk about life and death. ”

Shen Bikong raised his eyebrows, this kind of remark is very similar to the swordsman of the Helian clan he knows, the ancient swordsman is not easy to be used, once used, he is the best dead man, although these people are called swordsmen, in fact, they are more like the characters who generously go to the tragedy in the biography of the assassins, this is a group of swordsmen with faith in their hearts, for faith, they have no regrets.

"May I ask if Brother Tai can recognize Helian Tingfang?"

The names are so similar, no one will believe them if they have nothing to do with each other.

Helian Loufang was stunned for a moment, and his face blocked by the beard instantly became solemn, and said, "It's my brother!" ”

Shen Bikong was slightly sluggish, and glanced at Helian Loufang suspiciously, this bearded face, looking like he was almost forty years old, it turned out to be Helian Tingfang's younger brother? When he met Helian Tingfang back then, the ascetic-like ancient swordsman had just turned twenty years old, very young, and now he was just standing up, in other words, Helian Loufang, who looked like a bearded middle-aged man in front of him, was actually only in his twenties, which was really ...... You can’t judge a book by its cover.

sighed at Helian Loufang's old appearance, Shen Bikong was in a good mood, and asked again: "I have heard the name of Brother Ling for a long time, but I don't know if he is in He County now?" ”

If he is, he will take some time to visit his old friends, even if he can't recognize each other, it is comforting. I'm afraid there aren't many of his former confidants and old friends left.

Helian Loufang was surprised: "Since Gongzi has heard the name of his brother, how come he doesn't know that he is no longer alive?" After finishing speaking, there was a flash of grief and indignation in his eyes, and he continued, "Three years ago, my brother wanted to assassinate Emperor Qin, but he didn't want to be betrayed, so he was besieged and killed by Emperor Qin's Thousand Scale Guards on the outskirts of Qindu. ”

Shen Bikong's body trembled, his palms subconsciously clenched, only to feel that his heart was suffocated, his breathing was sluggish, and he struggled for a while: "Want to assassinate Emperor Qin?" ”

Helian Loufang saw that he really didn't know, and couldn't help sighing, and said: "Emperor Qin killed Shen Sikong, and even punished the Wang, Tong, and Cui clans, implicating nearly 10,000 people. ”

Shen Bikong's face was extremely ugly in an instant, the Wang, Tong, and Cui clans were his cronies who were cultivated by him at the beginning, and he made them become the sword and shield in Zhao Hao's hands, but they were broken by Zhao Hao himself, just because, they were cultivated by him.

and Helian Tingfang...... That old-fashioned and harsh swordsman, although he once saved Helian Tingfang's life, but Helian Tingfang also saved him later, and trained a group of sword masters for him to act as a guard, and he had already paid off his kindness, it was Helian Tingfang himself who said that the ancient swordsman did not owe kindness, did not serve the powerful, as for the righteousness of the master and apprentice with Cui Sanlang, it was even more of a joke, it was Cui Sanlang who kept pestering Helian Tingfang to apprentice, and Helian Tingfang ignored him at all.

Why...... Why is that!
