Walking from behind Liu Qingyuan was an old gentleman wearing a scholar's robe, the old gentleman was in good spirits, and from the cracks in his bones revealed a Confucian temperament, which was completely different from that of a cultivator. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yuan Lai looked at it curiously, he had naturally never seen this person, and Liu Xiaoyan immediately said to him when he saw it: "This is Mr. Teach in the family family." “

Yuan Lai suddenly understood, like a big family like the Liu family, the disciples in the family generally studied in the clan science, it seems that this old man should have a high status in the family science, and looking at Liu Yan's appearance, he should also be close to him.

So Yuan Lai nodded and said, "I am, have you heard my name?"

He felt a little strange in his heart, judging from the other party's questioning, this old man should not know what he did in the Tianding Conference, judging from his tone, it seemed that he had heard his name for a long time.

The old man nodded and smiled, "Yes, I did hear your name. ”

"Oh?"

"That was a few months ago, and the prince of the capital, Taizhi, had been to the northwest, and I was an old friend of Taizhi, so I heard your name from him. ”

Yuan Lai was stunned, and the scenes in Shencheng flashed in front of him, and most of the half a year has passed, and the scene of the conversation with the prince in the attic of Shencheng is still clear. Wang Taizhi: Is this his name? Yuan Lai thought secretly, and a smile appeared on the surface.

"I didn't expect Master Wang to remember me. I wonder what he told you about me?"

The old man smiled lightly: "Poetry." ”

"Poetry?"

"At that time, I mentioned the matter of Wuyi Zhulang, so Taizhi mentioned you, and let me read your chrysanthemum poem. ”

Yuan Lai laughed dumbly, he didn't expect this poem to really come out, even to the northwest.

The old man said: "Although that poem is not first-class, it is also a rare good poem, but it is much better than the students in my clan." ”

Yuan Lai hurriedly said that he didn't dare to be, in fact, he also knew that the chrysanthemum poem was not really written extremely well, and the reason why it was circulated in the world was more due to the life of its author, whether it was a poem or an article, there were probably two ways to pass it on to future generations, one was to pass on the poems to the world, and the other was to pass on the poems to the world, the former such as writing "The human face does not know where it is, and the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze" Cui Hu, and Yuan Lai once in the first examination of the Northern Sect, Zhang Ruoxu's famous sentence of the Spring River Flower Moon Night, the latter is famous for example, Emperor Qianlong's opening, Shen Deqian's "flying into the plum blossoms are not seen".

So he felt very pertinent about the old man's evaluation, but he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed because the poem came from the wrong way.

Fortunately, this conversation did not continue, and under Liu Yan's gently pursed mouth, Liu Qingyuan laughed and led everyone into the banquet.

There are not many people at the table, from the mouth of Kansai, Yuan Lai has already learned that Liu Yan's mother died very early, which is also the reason why Liu Qingyuan only has one daughter, under Yuan Lai's observation, although Daqi does not have three wives and four concubines, but a person of Liu Qingyuan's status has only one wife, and then he is even more unrelenting, which is an extremely rare good man.

Therefore, in addition to Liu Qingyuan, Kansai, and the old man named Liu Wenxuan and Liu Yan who studied in the family, there was only one person.

This person Yuan Lai recognized, it was Liu Zhaonan, who had run to the side courtyard to fight him with murderous anger before.

Liu Zhaonan kept standing at the back of the crowd, and when Liu Qingyuan introduced her, she pretended not to know Yuan Lai.

This made Yuan Lai laugh secretly in his heart, so he didn't expose it, and he should get acquainted again.

He finally learned the specific identity of Liu Zhaonan, her father turned out to be Liu Qingyuan's younger brother, but when Liu Zhaonan was still young, he was unfortunately killed when he went out once, and Liu Zhaonan's parents were killed by evil cultivators, so she grew up in Liu Qingyuan's house since she was a child, and Liu Xiaoyan is an excellent sister who has been together since she was a child.

It's just that Yuan Lai always feels awkward when he thinks of Liu Zhaonan's feelings for his cousin beyond friendship, and his gaze at Liu Zhaonan looks a little weird, and after he was silently glared at by Liu Zhaonan three times, he finally turned his head helplessly and forcibly ignored the other party.

During the banquet, the most talked about is what he saw and heard about going to Linjiang, Guanxi is Liu Qingyuan's brother with a different surname, and his status in the Liu family is very high, and the conversation during the banquet is mainly he said, everyone listens, Yuan Lai was somewhat surprised to find Kansai's speech talent, and this tower-like tiger man will tell Linjiang and his party in a few words.

More than half of the feast.

Liu Qingyuan rushed to Yuan Lai and asked, "Then what are you going to do next?"

According to Wu Danggui's explanation, there is often a big breakthrough between life and death in battle with people, and the state of mind can be baptized.

Yuan Lai naturally wanted to start early, so he said this, and then said, "It's just that we are new to the northwest after all, and we don't know where the cultivators here in the northwest are?"

Hearing this, Guan Xi put down his chopsticks and said seriously: "To say that the place with the most cultivators in the northwest is, of course, the border, to be precise, the large mountains and grasslands west of Tianmen Pass, and the western border of the Great Apocalypse is also there, there are many foreigners outside Tianmen Pass, that is, Xirong and grassland people, and there are many sects of cultivators, and there are many evil cultivators over there, and the Xirong people and others are causing trouble in the northwest."

Many of the disciples of the great sects of the Central Plains and some famous monks walked outside the Tianmen Pass, some in order to comprehend the way of heaven in the bitter cold land, some in order to kill the evil and cultivate the heavenly universe to accumulate merits, and the most was to kill the evil cultivators to exchange meritorious service to the Northwest Army.

The Northwest Army has been dominating the Northwest for decades, and there are not many cultivators who have been destroyed, and there are countless things that have been accumulated, so many cultivators choose to cooperate with the Northwest Army to kill the evil cultivator sect, as well as some foreigners who have repeatedly offended the border, or help the imperial court to kill some vicious fugitives, which is probably these categories. “

Guan Xi paused and added, "By the way, in addition to these categories, there are a few cultivators who walk outside the gate to find some ancient relics. That's one of a kind. ”

"Ancient relics?"

"Well, it has been a thousand years since the appearance of cultivators, and there are countless inheritances of extinction, plus all really powerful cultivators like to travel to the mainland and rush to some inaccessible and dangerous places in person, so there are quite a few inheritances left on the mainland, and there are many examples of people who are lucky enough to get the inheritance of a certain powerful figure and become famous, so there are also some people who concentrate on looking for opportunities. ”

Speaking of this, Kansai looked at Yuan Lai's eyes with a slight strangeness.

Yuan Lai nodded, expressing understanding, what he should do in this way is to go outside the Tianmen Pass, but according to Wu Danggui, it is still very dangerous to walk the border pass with his strength, and this should be considered.

At this time, Liu Qingyuan, who was sitting on the main seat, suddenly spoke: "If you are interested in going to Guanwai, there is a good opportunity recently. ”

"Oh?"

Liu Qingyuan said slowly: "The border pass has not been peaceful recently, I think you have heard it along the way, a few days ago I learned that the Northwest Army intends to send troops to sweep the border, according to the usual practice, it is to recruit some cultivators, I have some friendship with several generals in the Northwest Army, if you want to go to the Guanwai, it is better to simply go with the Sweeping Army, so that there is some security in the security and you can go deep into the Guanwai with confidence." ”

Yuan Lai's eyes lit up when he heard this, he looked at Daye beside him, and then said with some excitement: "I want to hear it in detail!"
