Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Transformation of Literature and Martial Arts, and the Heroic Spirit (II)
The main gate of Fan's mansion was wide open, and the families on both sides stood solemnly, and the second lady of Fan, with the three sisters of the Fan family and the daughter-in-law of the house, took out of the hall and welcomed the lord of Chenghuan and his master into the mansion.
Because of the appointment in advance, after entering the house, the second lady said goodbye, and Fan Baofeng and Guan Linglong led the county lord and others to Linjiao Courtyard, Guan Linglong said: "I learned that the county lord is here today, and the banquet has already been prepared. The county lord of Chenghuan only bowed slightly, Guan Linglong asked the county lord of Chenghuan to take a seat, but the county lord of Chenghuan ignored it and let the master sideways.
Everyone sat down, and the county lord of Chenghuan looked at Meng Jian'e and said: "I heard the third lady say that the girl Jian'e suddenly got the guidance of a famous teacher, and her swordsmanship has improved by leaps and bounds, and she has jumped above me, so she must open her eyes today." ”
Meng Jian'e said calmly: "Back to the county lord, Jian'e has indeed had adventures in the past few days, and has some new insights in the way of the sword, but Jian'e does not dare to surpass the county lord in vain. ”
Lord Chenghuan smiled: "What does Miss Jian'e mean to wait for the comparison to be confirmed?"
Meng Jian'e was just about to answer, but suddenly her heart moved, feeling that she was being watched by others, and in a blink of an eye, she saw the woman in white sitting on the upper seat looking at her, Meng Jian'e was secretly surprised, just now she clearly guessed the identity of the woman from the behavior of the county lord of Chenghuan to give up her seat, but she didn't take the initiative to pay attention to the woman at all from beginning to end, and was only focused on the county lord of Chenghuan, as if she deliberately ignored the woman.
What does this mean?
Meng Jian'e, who has a lot of cultivation talent, knows very well in her heart that she can hide her qi without leaking anything and make herself unaware of it, which can only show one thing, the gap between herself and the woman in white is too great.
"I just entered the Tongyou Dacheng, which is good. The woman in white said lightly.
When the county lord of Chenghuan heard this, he changed color and asked, "Master, do you mean...... She's already in the dark?"
The woman in white nodded, and then asked Meng Jian'e, "Can you please ask the Lingshi to come out and see you?"
Meng Jian'e glanced at Fan Baofeng, and Baofeng said, "I have already called someone to invite me." ”
The woman in white nodded, and asked Meng Jian'e again, "How old is Miss Meng this year?"
Meng Jian'e knew that the other party was a senior master, so she didn't dare to slack off, and replied: "I will have my fourteenth birthday on April 26 this year. ”
The woman in white smiled and said, "One year younger than Cheng Huan." Of course, this is not comparing age, but saying that Meng Jian'e's age is one year earlier than that of Chenghuan County Lord.
Lord Chenghuan's expression was slightly gloomy, and he said: "When I met Miss Meng in Sister Hongyu's princess's mansion four days ago, Miss Meng was still looking for a way out in the middle of the realm, but unexpectedly, it only took a few days to break through. ”
The woman in white looked slightly surprised, and said, "Four days of seclusion?"
Meng Jian'e hurriedly said: "I have been trapped in the Middle Realm for two years. ”
The woman in white nodded and said, "Chenghuan is one year and nine months, so in this way, you are comparable." ”
At this time, Fan Baozhu suddenly continued: "Sister E used two years, although the time is not short, and the county lord has used one year and nine months for that long......"
Fan Baofeng hurriedly stopped: "Baozhu must not talk nonsense. Then he bowed his head to the woman in white and the county lord with a slight apology, and asked: "Mr. Shicai said 'four days of seclusion', could it be that there are really people in this world who have four days of seclusion?"
The woman in white said: "It's not just four days, as far as I know, it only took one day for the fastest person in the world to break through the darkness. ”
Guan Linglong, who was standing on the side and waiting, continued: "In the middle of the noon, the golden crow fell and became a great success. ”
The woman in white nodded, "Exactly." ”
Baofeng asked again: "The second sister-in-law also knows, I don't know who it is?"
Guan Linglong walked up to Fan Baofeng and said, "Speaking of this eldest sister, you may have also heard that this great talent who has been quiet for a day is Mr. Han Shuye, the owner of Shifting Flower Villa. ”
Baofeng said: "Isn't Master Han Zhuang the Tanhua of the scientific examination list that year?"
Guan Linglong said: "It's also him." Everyone in the world knows that Uncle Han made splendid articles at the Dawen Conference at night, which attracted the blooming flowers of the gold list and achieved the name of Tanhualang, but few people know that this Han Zhuang master is also a martial arts wizard. ”
Guan Linglong was talking, and suddenly heard a sentence from outside, "Who is a martial arts wizard", and then saw Fan Baotong walking with a smile, followed by Mr. Xiao Chen.
"Sister Linglong, who did you just say is a martial arts wizard, Sister Jian'e?" After Fan Baotong came in, he didn't have time to greet everyone, and grasped this question to find out.
"Sister Jian'e is a martial arts wizard, but what I was talking to you about just now is the owner of Han Zhuang of Shifting Flower Villa. ”
When Fan Baotong heard this, he nodded in agreement, and said: "I heard that the owner of Han Zhuang loves flowers like his life and is a first-class elegant person, and now I don't feel strange when I say that he is literary and martial." ”
Fan Baofeng said: "I only care about talking there, and I don't meet the guests." ”
Fan Baotong shook his head at the county lord of Chenghuan and said, "Fan Baotong, a grass man, has seen His Royal Highness the county lord." ”
Jiang Zhong also saluted.
Lord Chenghuan said "no courtesy" and asked, "Hasn't Miss Meng's master come yet?"
Fan Baotong was stunned for a moment, suddenly woke up, and said with a smile: "Is the county lord talking about Sister E's 'Teacher of One Poem'?"
"A teacher of poetry?"
Fan Bao channel: "That night, the family teacher Chen Renzhong chanted poems to help Sister E break through the realm, and Sister E recognized the family teacher as 'the teacher of a poem'. ”
The county lord also wanted to ask, "Where is the commander", and when he saw Jiang Zhong next to him, he remembered something, and asked: "You are the Chen Renzhong who wrote "The Peony Pavilion" and chanted the words of Jinfeng Yulu?"
Jiang Zhong said: "It's exactly below." ”
"Then you are Mr. Xiao Chen from Fan Hulu?"
"Yes. ”
"Is it you chanting poetry to help Meng Jian'e break through the realm?"
"Yes. ”
"Okay!" The county lord of Chenghuan suddenly stood up and said: "Since you have the ability to break through the realm of poetry, you must have a high and profound realm, far above the county lord, and the county lord does not underestimate your youth, since you are Meng Jian'e's teacher and Fan Hulu's husband, you can be regarded as an elder figure, this county lord and ask you, do you dare to fight with my master?"
"Huh?" How could Jiang Zhong have expected that Liang Chenghuan, a county lord, would make an appointment for his master when he opened his mouth.
Lord Chenghuan was a little annoyed by the "um", and said, "I made it very clear when I made a date the day before yesterday, why should Mr. Chen pretend to be confused?"
Jiang Zhong said: "How dare I pretend to be confused in front of the county lord, I really don't understand what the county lord is talking about, first, I have no grievances with the commander, why do I want to fight?
"Since you can chant poems to help Meng Jian'e break through the realm, what nonsense about 'the way has not entered', are you easy to bluff when I am a child?"
Jiang Zhong felt helpless and said, "The so-called helping Miss Meng break through the realm is purely a coincidence......
Before Jiang Zhong could finish speaking, the woman in white interrupted, "You are gathering qi." ”
"Gathering gas?"
There are not only Liang Chenghuan in the field, but all those who are proficient in martial arts Guan Linglong, Meng Jian'e and others feel incredible, everyone has seen Mr. Xiao Chen show a vast literary spirit several times, and he is also in the Queqiao Poetry Meeting "Literary Carving Dragon", repelled the prince of Chen Guo in one fell swoop, preconceived the wrong impression that everything he learns will inevitably be, and everything he will inevitably refine.
After all, it is rare to meet in a hundred years!
"Bang!" Chenghuan County Lord slammed the case and reprimanded: "A scholar who has not yet gathered qi can help people break through the secluded realm, your Fan Mansion is treating me as a trickster, I still attach so much importance to it, and specially invited the teacher to come together, you don't invite the master behind the scenes, just forget it, nonsense What is the 'teacher of a poem' to bluff people, hum, the county lord knows that your Fan Mansion is the richest man in the Ten Kingdoms, and he has a great reputation, so naturally he can not take the county lord in his eyes!"
Fan Baofeng and the others hurriedly stood up and said, "Mr. Chen's poem to help Jian'e's sister break through the realm is known to the whole government, if the county lord doesn't believe it, he can find someone to ask at will." ”
Lord Chenghuan sneered: "Looking for someone to ask, it seems that Miss Fan really treats me as a little girl." As he spoke, he turned to the woman in white and said, "Master, since people don't want to invite the masters behind the scenes, we don't have to be bored here, let's go." ”
When Guan Linglong and the others heard this, they were suddenly a little anxious, and now, everyone can basically see that this Chenghuan County Lord is visiting the Mansion today, Jiucheng is coming to find the ballast, and it is very likely that he was ordered by Prince Zhong, this seems to be a nonsense situation, but in fact it is the most difficult to solve, as long as the Chenghuan County Lord goes around after leaving the Fan Mansion to announce that he was teased and deceived in the Fan Mansion, then this matter can be big or small.
It's not that Prince Zhong's Mansion will directly tear up his face with Fan Mansion because of this matter, and the court will not sanction Fan Mansion because of this matter, at most it is two sentences of holy responsibility, but the problem is that since ancient times, the collapse of the big family has not happened overnight, but has accumulated a lot, and accumulated evil into a disaster, today you will be given a crime of "teasing the county lord", tomorrow you will be given a "bribe" hat, and the day after tomorrow you will be given a list of the crime of "bending the law with money...... In the long run, the qualitative changes caused by quantitative changes, once Mrs. Fan travels one day, then one by one, they may be fatal.
Seeing that the county lord of Chenghuan really left the table and couldn't stay, Jiang Zhong suddenly said: "Your Royal Highness the county lord, you said that I haven't gathered my strength and can't guide Miss Meng to break through the secluded realm, so I want to ask, what kind of realm can I guide me?"
Lord Chenghuan said: "At least it must be quiet, not unsuccessful." ”
Jiang Zhong said: "Then I dare to ask His Royal Highness the County Lord to sit down for a while and drink a cup of tea, after the tea is drunk, I will invite the person behind the scenes, how about it?"
Liang Chenghuan stared at Jiang Zhong for a while, nodded, and said, "I'll give you a cup of tea." With that, he returned to his seat and poured himself a cup of tea.
Guan Linglong, Fan Baofeng and the others all looked at Jiang Zhong blankly, and found that he actually sat back in his seat, falling into deep thought like an old monk, thinking about countermeasures.
Zhuang Yuya pulled Guan Linglong's dress under the table, Guan Linglong understood, stretched out her palm, and Baofeng wrote: "He is buying time, think of ideas." ”
The word "he" of course refers to Mr. Xiao Chen.
Guan Linglong thought about it, gave Qian'er a look, and asked her to ask the old lady, and Qian'er left Linjiao Courtyard quietly.
The tea kung fu passed in a blink of an eye, but Mr. Xiao Chen was still staring at the cup of tea on the table motionless, like a stone statue looking at tea.
Lord Chenghuan glanced at him mockingly, drank the last sip of tea, put down the teacup with a "pum", and was about to get up, when suddenly a tornado blew over the courtyard and was just above Jiang Zhong's head.
The "Whee-Woo-......" tornado whistled incessantly, spinning faster and faster, and finally exploded with a "bang", and a layer of transparent gas slowly descended, wrapping Jiang Zhong's body, forming an aura barrier.
Gathering Qi Realm is a great achievement!
The woman in white nodded slightly, and the county lord of Chenghuan looked at Jiang Zhong with a changeable expression, vaguely guessing what he was going to do.
Then, Jiang Zhong closed his eyes, and the transparent barrier around his body slowly dissipated, soaking into his body, and after a while, he saw that the clothes on the young man with his eyes closed swelled for no reason, as if there was an endless stream of vitality in his body being released outward.
This is a sign that the ghost in the body is opened, and he is in the dark!
......A string of firecrackers-like sounds sounded in the courtyard, which lasted for a while, and then turned into the sound of "tom tom tom", and after a while, the drum sound finally turned into a "boom" rolling thunder.
"Boom" is like a dragon chanting a river.
"Boom" is like a tiger roaring in the abyss.
"Boom" is the vibration sound that erupts from the storm and clouds stirred by the mighty gang.
In the sky above Linjiao Courtyard, directly above Jiang Zhong's head, the thunder continued to roll for nearly half a cup of tea, and it stopped abruptly, Jiang Zhong opened his eyes, and two rays of light shot out.
Nothing is done!
"Tea - Tongyou?" Lord Chenghuan muttered to himself in a daze, confused.
The woman in white sighed slightly: "What a domineering Haoran Gang. ”
At this time, Qian'er had already rushed back from Lixiangyuan, but she no longer needed to inform Guan Linglong of Old Lady Fan's instructions, because Old Lady Fan's instructions were:
"Everything is up to Mr. Xiao Chen. ”
