Chapter 2 The reunion of the deceased
The person who came was wearing a regular suit, with a sword at his waist, and his body was righteous and awe-inspiring, quite imposing, Lin Qi saw it, and he really felt familiar. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Are you...... Brother Hong!"
Seeing that Lin Qi recognized himself, Hong Shaoyu suddenly laughed, he was always wearing a black robe before, very dignified, but at this time it was a little casual, but it was also more friendly.
It has been about four years since the farewell of Yinlong Mountain, and the two teenagers have grown up, but Hong Shaoyu has not changed much.
Seeing that Lin Qi recognized Hong Shaoyu, another young man who followed Hong Shaoyu's side also stepped forward to salute, this person was young, tall and thin, and obviously knew Lin Qi and Firefly.
"Lin Qi, sister firefly, long time no see!"
"Are you...... Flat?"
Bian Dan is one of the four little Taoist children who followed Lou Yangzi of the Immortal Sect back then, he is the same size as Lin Qi, but he didn't expect to see him for a few years, and he actually looked half a head taller than Hong Shaoyu, but now he is still like his own name, he looks slender and long, and he is as good as his name.
Old friends saw each other, and felt more cordial, Lin Qi was also very happy to introduce Hong Shaoyu and Bian Dan to Ma Zhanpeng, and Ma Zhanpeng also introduced himself personally, but what Lin Qi didn't expect was that Ma Zhanpeng had also heard of Hong Shaoyu of the Immortal Sect, but Hong Shaoyu became famous earlier, and it was not strange that Ma Zhanpeng, who was a disciple of the thief, had heard of him.
"Brother Hong, Biandan, why are you back in the capital?"
Now Hong Shaoyu should be the elder of the Immortal Sect, and the affairs of the Immortal Sect are busy, so he is willing to let Hong Shaoyu out.
Hearing Lin Qi's question, Hong Shaoyu actually showed a proud look.
"It's a long story, let's talk while walking, this time, we're here to pick you up!"
As they spoke, the group got back on the road and continued their journey towards Kyoto.
"Pick us up, how did Brother Hong know that we were coming to the capital?"
Although the deeds of Lin Qi and his entourage in the wilderness have spread, the fact that they want to come to the capital to accept the imperial court's commendation is far from being known, not to mention that they still came by carriage, and they have not told other people that even they themselves are not so clear about the time of arrival in the capital, so how does Hong Shaoyu know the exact time?
"Well, let's start from the beginning. Hong Shaoyu first pretended to smile mysteriously, then sorted out his thoughts before he spoke, "Little Brother Lin, do you remember what I said to you when we were separated?"
At the beginning of the farewell of Yinlong Mountain, Hong Shaoyu once told Lin Qi that he was going north to Beijing to participate in the assessment of the Sword Pavilion.
"Brother Hong, you have passed the assessment of the Sword Pavilion, congratulations!"
Of course, Lin Qi was happy for his old friend, because even he knew that as a sword cultivator, being able to pass the assessment of the Sword Pavilion and successfully join the Sword Pavilion was a great affirmation of his own strength, and it was also an unparalleled glory, and once he entered the Sword Pavilion, with the resources of the Sword Pavilion, the monk himself could also get great help!
"Yes, after passing the Sword Pavilion assessment, Uncle Tai was an old man, but he cried for a long time!"
Hong Shaoyu just laughed, didn't care, seemed to be in a very good mood, compared to the original sex like fire, now Hong Shaoyu is obviously much calmer.
"Our Immortal Sect has re-established a new master sect two years ago, and the new master sect is my Liyang Senior Uncle, so Uncle Tai has time to fully prepare for the test of the Sword Pavilion, and it is successful in one fell swoop, for our Immortal Sect, it can be described as double happiness, I followed Uncle Tai to the capital, and I specially took care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation!"
For Hong Shaoyu to be able to join the Sword Pavilion, Biandan also seemed very proud, and the status of the Sword Pavilion among the monks can be seen from this.
"Joined the Sword Pavilion, what should I do with the Immortal Sect?" Hong Shaoyu is the signboard of the Immortal Sect, and if Hong Shaoyu loses Hong Shaoyu, wouldn't the Immortal Sect suffer a heavy loss.
"That's okay!" Hong Shaoyu waved his hand, his face was still very relaxed, "Joining the Sword Pavilion has no conflict with what sect you originally had, the Sword Pavilion will not restrict your personal freedom, as long as you can complete the tasks assigned by the Sword Pavilion every year, study in the Sword Pavilion for at least two months a year, and be on call in an emergency, that's fine!"
"After joining the Sword Pavilion, no matter what your background is, what sect or sect you come from, the Sword Pavilion will not ask, the disciples of the Sword Pavilion, no matter how high or low their status is, are based on age, and they are commensurate with their brothers, and the Sword Pavilion will only have one leader, that is, the master of the Sword Pavilion!"
After listening to Hong Shaoyu's explanation, Lin Qi had a deeper understanding of the Sword Pavilion, and there were some things that perhaps only people in the Sword Pavilion could know, even a well-informed person like Ma Zhanpeng didn't know much about it.
"Then what does this have to do with you coming to pick us up? Our itinerary is uncertain, how did Brother Hong know that we arrived today?"
Regarding Lin Qi's question, Ma Zhanpeng answered it for him first.
"Sword Pavilion, as one of the pinnacles of the monk sect in the rivers and lakes, is actually not as simple as it seems, they themselves have an incomparably complete information and intelligence agency, many things in the rivers and lakes, the Sword Pavilion is clear, especially in the capital and the surrounding places, almost all under the surveillance of the Sword Pavilion, after entering the Sword Pavilion, it is very easy to touch these things. ā
After Ma Zhanpeng finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Hong Shaoyu first, as if to confirm something, after listening to his words, everyone suddenly realized, Hong Shaoyu was even more surprised to look at the fat man in front of him, in fact, at the beginning, he just thought that Ma Zhanpeng was just an ordinary friend of Lin Qi, so it seems that he is still a little blind.
"I've been joining the Sword Pavilion for a year, and I just have a general understanding of these things, but I didn't expect this friend who stole the door to be so clear, I don't know where Your Excellency came from!"
Hong Shaoyu couldn't help but be wary of Ma Zhanpeng, and even secretly became vigilant, and when he spoke, he was still a little angry, and it seemed that he had identified Ma Zhanpeng as an enemy who was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, hiding his true identity, and lurking around Lin Qi!
This time, Ma Zhanpeng was a little inexplicable, and Lin Qi was familiar with Hong Shaoyu's temper, and his temperament was like fire, so he naturally knew what he had misunderstood.
"Hong Shaoyu, Ma Zhanpeng is our good friend, not a bad person, I can use my reputation to vouch for this, you can rest assured of this, Brother Hong!"
After listening to Lin Qi's words, Hong Shaoyu was still a little skeptical, but now he has been much more tactful, at this time, he was afraid of Lin Qi's face, so he nodded and restrained his temper, Lin Qi was also a little surprised by this, I didn't expect that the Sword Pavilion could not only teach skills, but also improve a person's character!
Just when Lin Qi wanted to continue to ask, he saw another person in front of him, galloping towards this side, and it seemed that he was also coming towards him.
What kind of day is today, as if a lot of things are going to collide with each other!
But after the reunion with Hong Shaoyu, Lin Qi was a little surprised for a while.
When this person came closer, Lin Qi found that the other party was actually an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, and Hong Shaoyu was even a little surprised when he saw him.
"Senior Brother Liu, why are you here!"
Seeing Hong Shaoyu, the young man also gestured to him casually, which was counted as a response.
"Senior Brother Hong, you're here too!" After speaking, the young man turned around again, "Are you Lin Qi and Firefly from the Imperial Heaven Sect?"
Lin Qi didn't know how the other party knew him, he and Firefly glanced at each other, obviously the little girl was also puzzled.
"yes, what are you looking for from us?"
Hearing Lin Qi's affirmative answer, the young man actually pulled out a sword from his waist behind his back!
"That's right, let me see how capable you are!"
