Chapter 5 Xuanjin Zhuang masters gather
The city of the south wind, adjacent to the ghost forest.
The city, which was originally extremely prosperous and peaceful, has become a little quiet these days. The news of the attack on the City Lord's Mansion had already spread throughout the city. The city lord Nanfeng Lin was born in the Nanfeng tribe, and was an official who was quite loved by the people, but now he was seriously injured and dying. Everyone speculated in their hearts about who attacked the City Lord's Mansion.
At noon, a group of people walked on the wide street in the city.
There were six people in the group, four young people, one old man, and one young girl. Strangely, the old man held the girl's hand tightly, looking rather strange. At that time, although old husbands and young wives were rare, they were not uncommon. But in front of the public, it is really extremely unusual to hold hands. Passers-by looked at the group and whispered about it.
Old Man Yan didn't notice this at first, he was afraid of the sudden killer in the mist, so he kept Min Er in his hand at all times. But I didn't want this to attract passers-by to point fingers. For a while, although he had experienced too many things in the world, his old face couldn't help but flush. Glancing at a restaurant, the group entered the restaurant and went to the private room, and the old man Yan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Min Er was tired and scared at the moment, this old man with white hair should have been kind and kind-eyed, but at this moment, he captured himself and became the embodiment of evil. I only hope that I can save her sooner.
Even though he was in the private room, Old Man Yan still held Min Er's arm tightly.
"Chongbiao, according to what I said before, you take this letter and hand it over to the owner of Xuanjin Village in the city. He and I have been friends for many years, and I will definitely reply to you after reading the letter. Old man Yan took out a letter from his arms, looked at the stubble young man and said.
"Yes, master. The stubble young man respectfully accepted the letter and turned away.
"Chongbiao, go and come back quickly, the teacher is waiting for your news here. Old man Yan admonished again.
Chongbiao answered, quickly got out of the restaurant, and went straight to the east of the city.
"Master, master, look. The door of the private room was open, and a young disciple pointed to the hall directly opposite the private room. There, no return was sitting quietly.
Old man Yan saw the fog, his eyebrows trembled, and said, "Ignore him for now, and wait for Chongbiao to come back." He thought to himself: "I didn't expect this girl to be so important to her, it seems that this plan can be achieved." He looked at the black sword, and his eyes were thick with greed.
Min Er also saw that there was no return, and was about to run over, but was grabbed by the arm of Old Man Yan, and it was difficult to take a step. She was aggrieved and scared, and the pear blossom cried with rain.
Old Man Yan and the others waited a little anxiously, and nearly an hour passed. Finally, that Chongbiao rushed back. As soon as the stubble youth went upstairs, he saw the fog sitting in the center of the lobby. He was shocked, turned his head to look at the private room, and saw that the master and several senior brothers were all fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief and tiptoed towards the elegant room.
Misty glanced at him faintly, contemplating slightly.
"Master, that's... Why did the fog come?" Chongbiao breathed a little heavily, obviously in a hurry.
"Hmph, I'm not afraid that he will come, but I'm afraid that he won't come. How is it, what does the owner say?" Old Man Yan hurriedly asked, obviously this matter is extremely important.
"Well, master, the owner of the village said, let you go over and talk about it in detail. Chongbiao said.
Old man Yan's expression changed, and he said: "That's fine, Chongbiao, you go and tell the fog, just say that we will wait for him in Xuanjin Village in the east of the city, and let him exchange this girl with divine soldiers in three days." “
"Ah, master, you let me speak?" the stubble young man's eyes widened, and then his whole face became bitter.
"Don't worry, he won't do anything to you. Old man Yan couldn't hear the slightest emotion in his tone.
"But master, will he go? Even if he goes, he won't necessarily be stupid enough to hand over the divine soldiers. I could see that the black sword was important to him. "The stubble youth rarely used his brain.
"Well, fools know that's the case. But as long as he goes, he can't help it. Since he had followed, the girl must have been extremely important to him. You just go to yourself. Old man Yan said patiently.
"Alright then, master. The stubble young man turned his head to look at the fog where he was sitting, as if he had made great determination to say this.
"Well, let's go first, you make it clear to him, and then follow up, do you know?" Old Man Yan said in a slightly deep tone.
"Ah, okay, master, you go slowly. Chongbiao thought that the master would wait for him here, but he didn't expect to leave first, and he suddenly felt that he had no support in his heart.
"The master has taken care of me for so many years, so don't let him down. Chongbiao cheered himself up in his heart. After looking at the fog, he walked slowly.
Old man Yan grabbed Min Er, took a long sword from his disciple's hand, and placed it across Min Er's neck. The two of them went out of the private room, and several disciples followed. Min Er looked at Wuhui with a pair of tearful eyes, and only hoped that Wuhui would save her immediately. Wuhui stood up and signaled Min'er to rest assured. He looked at the stubble young man who was walking towards him with a pair of eyes, and the old man Yan and the others hurriedly went downstairs with Min Er to leave, Chongbiao's heart was pounding, and he almost came out of his throat.
"Little... Little two, take... Bring pen and paper. At the critical moment, he finally remembered that the unfathomable killer in front of him couldn't speak.
The shopkeeper hurriedly sent a pen and paper, and when he put down the pen and paper, he secretly glanced at it and didn't reply. I only felt that this young man's eyebrows were full of haze, and his eyes were also shining with a terrifying light. The shopkeeper shuddered and hurriedly retreated.
Chongbiao cautiously walked to the table, held the pen and wrote: "Three days later, Your Excellency will go to Xuanjinzhuang in the east of the city with a divine soldier and exchange the divine soldier for that girl. His heart was nervous, his arms couldn't help but tremble, and the handwriting was crooked, and it really looked like an earthworm crawling over.
Chongbiao apparently noticed this as well, his face flushed, and he smiled awkwardly at Wuhui.
Wu Hui looked at him coldly, stood up suddenly, and his broad palm tightly grabbed Chongbiao's neck. "Ah" shouted, even the shopkeeper shrank in fright, only to hear the stubble young man shouting: "I am a messenger, the two armies are fighting, don't kill the envoy!" This sentence came out of his heart, and he suddenly shouted.
I didn't know what he said, he just stared at him coldly, and the stubble youth didn't dare to look at him, he closed his eyes tightly, and completely forgot that he had cultivated for many years. Maybe in his subconscious, he didn't realize that he would be the opponent of the killer in front of him.
In the middle of the night, Chongbiao felt that the powerful hand was released, and when he slowly opened his eyes, there was still a little fog in the restaurant.
Chongbiao took a deep breath, only to feel that the air was full of fragrance, "It feels so good to be alive." He sighed, hurriedly got out of the restaurant, and ran straight to the east of the city.
Xuanjinzhuang is just like an ordinary rich manor. The owner of the village, Qi Congxuan, is quite famous in the generation of South Wind City. One is that his family is rich, and the other is that Qi Congxuan is arrogant and likes to make friends, and it is rumored that his strength is also extremely profound.
Old man Yan is far away in Dacangmei Prefecture, and Qi Congxuan can also get acquainted, so you can see the depth.
In the main hall of the manor, Qi Congxuan sat on the upper seat, and Old Man Yan sat on the lower head. As for Min Er, he had already been locked up in a side hall hut and was guarded by several disciples of Old Man Yan.
"Brother Yan, when we said goodbye, our brothers haven't seen each other for nearly ten years. Qi Congxuan stroked his half-white beard and said with a smile.
"Exactly, Brother Qi is right. Back then, it was really fun for our brothers to wander around and make friends. Every time I think of this, my brother is very worried about my brother. Unexpectedly, my brother has done such a big business, and my brother is here to congratulate. Old man Yan made a bow.
"Haha, Brother Yan, you are too polite. Brother, my little inheritance, compared to my brother, is nothing at all. Qi Congxuan laughed, although he said this, the smug look on his face was obvious.
"Haha, brother, you are too modest. The two old foxes touted each other, talking only about the old things, and not about the things in front of them.
Old man Yan couldn't help but scold in his heart when he saw that Qi Congxuan was deeply cultivated, but he still needed the other party's help in this matter, and it was not easy to offend him. immediately took the initiative to say: "Brother, the purpose of my visit this time, I think my brother also knows it." “
"Heh, can't you finally help it?" Qi Congxuan smiled secretly in his heart and said, "The little brother is stupid, but he didn't guess the old brother's plan." “
"Hehe, why is my brother so modest. Old man Yan stopped going around the bend and said: "Brother, I said it directly, if the elder brother is willing to take action in this matter, after the matter is completed, the ownership of the divine soldier, let's talk about it in detail." “
"Haha, Brother Yan laughed. Qi Congxuan smiled incomprehensibly and said, "I only saw the elder brother bring a little girl, but I didn't see any divine soldiers. “
"Hmph, there is no need to worry about this matter, I have already arranged it, and in three days, my brother will naturally be able to see the divine soldiers. Old man Yan leaned back on the bench and said slowly.
"Oh, brother, are you so sure?" Qi Cong's declaration was puzzled, and then he smiled again: "Brother don't be anxious, let's talk about it again when I lead you to meet a few friends." “
"Oh, friend?" Old man Yan was even more suspicious, he only felt that this friend from many years ago had now become strange and completely unpredictable.
"Tomorrow, my brother will naturally see you. Qi Congxuan looked at Old Man Yan with a pair of eyes, and said loudly to the waiter: "Banquet, I want to stay with Brother Yan tonight without getting drunk." Haha!" he looked very happy, and he laughed at Old Man Yan so much that he couldn't figure it out.
Old man Yan looked at him, and then smiled and said, "Okay, I will not get drunk with my brother and not return." “
In the evening, the two of them drank and chatted in the hall, and from time to time there was a sound of laughter, which was obviously extremely happy. Min Er was trapped in the room, looking at the side dishes brought by the waiter, but she couldn't eat anything for a while. She held her cheeks in her hands and stared at the window with her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking. As for Old Man Yan's disciples, they were eating and drinking happily next door, and the stubble young man Chongbiao was also present.
"Senior brother, I heard that there will be a master coming over tomorrow, I don't know what the reason is?" said a young man after taking a sip of wine.
"Oh, I don't know. Chongbiao wiped the grease on his mouth and said, "Senior brother, let's not care so much, what the master says, let's just do it." Between his words, he respected and trusted Old Man Yan very much.
"Well, that's what Senior Brother said. "Several of them don't have much scheming, maybe this is what Old Man Yan values.
On the second day, several waves of people came to the manor. It's just that he doesn't recognize any of them. He faintly felt in his heart that his old brother was really a little unfathomable.
"Brother Yan, come on, let me introduce you. A wave of people arrived, Qi Congxuan said with a smile: "These handsome heroes, presumably you must not recognize the Shaw family of the Minghao Empire, these are the rising stars of the Shaw family." Qi Congxuan's tone was quite proud.
"In Xia Shao Jianglong, Shao Jianghu, Shao Jiangyun, Shao Jiangfeng, I have seen Yan seniors. These people have revealed their names, and their words are quite polite.
"Oh, you're being polite. Old man Yan didn't dare to hold it up, and he hugged his fists and returned the salute.
"Hehe, Brother Yan, there will be an important person coming later, don't be too surprised, brother. Qi Congxuan looked at Old Man Yan's expression, and his words were quite teasing.
"Hehe, what kind of character can surprise the old man, I want to see it. Old man Yan muttered, and there was no expression on his face.
"Hehe, brother, don't be too surprised later. Qi Congxuan said with a smile.
Old man Yan looked at him, and he suddenly hated Qi Congxuan's smile in his heart.
And the people were sitting in the middle of the temple, and suddenly a waiter came, and someone came.
Qi Congxuan got up and said, "Let's go, everyone will come with me to greet you." Qi Congxuan's expression was very solemn, and he brushed his robe before walking towards the gate of the manor first.
Old man Yan saw his movements, and he didn't know what he was selling, so he couldn't help but feel a little worried: "If there is really a master coming, then it is really difficult to say whose hands this divine weapon will fall into in the end." ”
When everyone arrived at the gate of the manor, they saw a big man in gray clothes and a long knife at his waist standing there, with his back to everyone, faintly revealing a sky-high momentum. Old man Yan was shocked in his heart: "Master, absolute master!" He has been wandering for many years, and his eyesight is naturally good.
"Hehe, Brother Shi, don't come unharmed, Brother Tai is coming, and our village is shining!" Qi Congxuan's tone was unusually enthusiastic. This time, not only did Old Man Yan feel bad in his heart, but even the Shaw brothers who arrived first also had a strange feeling in their hearts, but no one said anything.
"Haha, Brother Qi, you are too polite, you know, I don't like to come to this set!" The gray-clothed man laughed, and his tone was extremely bold, and it made people praise it in their hearts when they heard it. He turned his head to look at Old Man Yan and asked, "I don't know who these are?"
"Your Excellency is the Heavenly King, the Heavenly King of Dao and Stone?" Old Man Yan took the initiative to ask without waiting for Qi Congxuan's introduction.
"Hehe, the king of heaven doesn't dare to be, that's all a joke of friends on the road. I don't know what Your Excellency calls it?"
"Old decay Yan Lianshan, Shi Tianwang is too modest, the name of the Heavenly King Knife, almost everyone on the road knows it, no one knows it, and the Heavenly King is worthy of it. Old man Yan seemed to have great respect for this Shi Potian's strength, and he praised it a lot.
"Don't dare, don't dare, Brother Yan's name has long been heard of and admired for a long time. Shi Potian seemed to know the origin of Old Man Yan, and he did not neglect him at all.
"Hehe, Brother Shi, Brother Yan, let's go into the hall and talk about it. Qi Congxuan led everyone to the main hall, and on the way, he introduced the Shaw brothers and Shi Potian to each other. He was in the master's position at this time, and he greeted and entertained him very happily.
The banquet in the hall had already been set up, and everyone was drinking and talking in the hall.
Old man Yan's heart sank slightly: "There are so many good players, I just hope that the strength of the mist will be higher, and it will be better to fight on a par and lose both." ”
It seems that this kind of thing that is called a brother on the surface, but secretly does not know what to do, is a lot of things in the world.
Min Er was trapped in the house and couldn't go out, she was looking forward to coming back to save her earlier, and she was a little anxious to wait. Fortunately, except for the servants and waiters who delivered the food, no one came to disturb her, and she was no longer so worried and afraid.
After leaving the restaurant that day, Wu Hui found a slightly remote inn to live in. If he really wanted to hide, there were few who could find him.
At this time, the masters of Xuanjinzhuang also seemed to be aware of this problem.
When it came down to business, the atmosphere in the temple was not as lively as before.
Shao Jiangyun, the brother of the Shaw family, opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know what the little girl captured by Yan's predecessors is the origin?"
Old Man Yan shook his head and replied, "I don't know." ”
Everyone frowned slightly, and Shao looked at the cloud in his eyes, and asked again: "Then what is the relationship between this little girl and the fog?"
Old Man Yan shook his head again and said, "I don't know." ”
Qi Congxuanwu sat upright, as if he had never heard this answer. Shao Jiangyun was puzzled in his heart, so he asked, "Then dare to ask the seniors, how can you be sure that the fog will definitely come?"
Old man Yan looked at him, then at Qi Congxuan, who was sitting upright, and said, "There is no need to worry about this matter, we will see tomorrow." ”
Shi Tianwang inadvertently glanced at Qi Congxuan and Old Man Yan's expressions, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he said to the Shao brothers: "At this time, it is the time to talk about wine, and don't talk about business. Let's have a drink first. He picked up a bowl of wine and gulped it clean.
A man like him, with a big waist and a round waist, and profound skills, drinking this sake is naturally completely inappropriate.
Everyone drank and chatted with themselves, and the Shaw brothers drank a lot of alcohol, and they also held junior rituals during the banquet, and they got along very well. After drinking a few bowls of wine, Shao Jiangyun asked again: "Dare to ask the owner of the village, you said earlier, there will be masters arriving tomorrow, my brothers are very curious, I don't know if the owner can get to the bottom first?"
"Haha!" Qi Congxuan laughed, and Shi Potian and Old Man Yan also laughed, making Shao Jiangyun laugh inexplicably.
"Did the junior say something wrong?" he looked puzzled, and the brothers frowned and remained silent.
"Little brother, Master Qi said before, I will know tomorrow. Brother, why are you so breathless?" Shi Potian had a teasing look on his face.
"Oh, I see, the juniors are abrupt. Shao Jiangyun's face was slightly gloomy, and then he laughed with everyone, but he didn't know what it was like in his heart.
Everyone shouted in the middle of the night, and then they took the waiter freely, and went back to their rooms to rest and not talk. (.html)
