Chapter Fifty-Nine: Someone from Far Away
When I walked to the mouth of the red mud alley, I didn't know how much night it was. said that he didn't do the thing of cooking for Su Yao early when he came back, and Shen Jing didn't know if Su Yao had eaten after thinking about it, and his pace was a little faster when he was worried.
Walking lightly all the way, I soon arrived at my own door. Slowly pushing the fence open, Shen Jing shouted towards the house: "I'm back!" ”
It was late at night, and I was afraid of disturbing the surrounding neighbors, so the sound was not loud.
When he turned around and closed the door, Shen Kuang caught a glimpse of the carriage parked in the small courtyard, and immediately became suspicious, not knowing what was happening. Seeing the lights in the house lit and the hidden figure swaying, I was even more curious.
He walked to the front of the house, pushed open the wooden door, and stepped over the threshold.
There were three people sitting around the small wooden table in the main hall, except for Su Yao, it was Shi Yu and Senior Han, who had not seen each other for a long time.
Shen looked at the two of them with some surprise and asked, "Uncle Han, Shi Yu, why are you here?" ”
In fact, when Shen Kuang shouted at the gate of the courtyard fence, the three of them heard it, so he pushed the door in at this time, and the three of them did not react.
Su Yao raised her eyes and looked, and then lowered her head and continued to eat without paying much attention.
Shi Yu originally planned to ignore Brother Shen like Sister Su, but as soon as she saw it now, she couldn't control it, and her heart was full of excitement.
"Brother Shen." Shi Yu called softly.
Han Zhongjing happily accepted Shen Jing's uncle, he looked at Shen Jing, and smiled maliciously: "As soon as your master leaves, you stinky boy will not be able to practice swords well and learn to go out to drink flower wine?" ”
Su Yao and Shi Yu's reactions, Shen Jing saw all of them, and when he heard Uncle Han's words at this time, he guessed that Shi Yu and Uncle Han must have both known what he was doing in the afternoon.
After closing the door of the house, Shen Jing turned around and walked to the table and sat down, and explained stupidly: "Uncle Han, you misunderstood, I went to Tingxiangyuan to talk to Miss Jiang about business, and I didn't drink a drop of wine." ”
Shi Yu leaned over and sniffed, and said with a smile: "There is no smell of wine." ”
Shen Jing also smiled: "How could Brother Shen lie to you?" Besides, I don't know her well. ”
Since knowing the relationship between his master and Han's predecessors, even with Shi Yu, Shen Jing has also had a lot of feelings about relatives, and he treats Shi Yu as his sister in his heart.
Shi Yu smiled happily, agreeing with Shen Qian's explanation. However, Su Yao, who was sitting on the other side of Shen Qian, was still suspicious, and gave Shen Jing a roll of his eyes and said, "People have invited you again and again, and I also think you are not familiar?" ”
At first glance, Su Yao's words thought she was helping him speak, but anyone could hear that something was wrong in her tone at this time.
Han Zhongjing didn't speak, and he and Shi Yu were also looking at Shen Jing.
After Shen Jing smiled bitterly, Zhengse said: "It's our identity, and the building outside the building has been found." ”
When Su Yao heard this, she suddenly looked at Shen Jing with some horror: "They..."
"I guess they saw my Ghost Fang Sword when they first came, so they found it after some investigation. But the good news is that I have made an agreement with the ginger girl, she will help us keep it secret, and I will grant her three requests. ”
After listening to Shen Qian's explanation, Han Zhongjing spoke: "Louwailou is investigating you?" ”
Shen Jing shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be deliberately investigating me, because of the news of the birth of the Qinling Fuxuan Sword before, that Jiang girl came to me and wanted to cooperate with me to let me go with them to find the sword, maybe at that time, she investigated, and found it." ”
"What three requests did you agree to her?" Han Zhongjing asked again.
"She only said the first one, and the next two have not yet been decided." Shen said.
"Are you so sure she won't go back on her word, and won't use it to blackmail you after you've completed the three demands?" Han Zhongjing asked again, the question was sharp.
Shen Guo naturally thought about this question, he nodded and said slowly: "I thought about it at first, but at that time, I thought it was a big deal to break the net and run away. However, after getting to know that Jiang girl, I felt that she didn't seem to be that kind of person, so I chose to trust her once. ”
Su Yao, who was on the side, pouted at this time and said, "Hmph, are you still unfamiliar?" ”
After Shen finished speaking, Han Zhongjing smiled: "The girl in the Jiang family outside the building, is it called Jiang Ning?" ”
"That's right, it's called Jiang Ning."
Han Zhongjing took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "If I guessed correctly, she should be the only daughter of the Jiang family in the current Louwai Building, and she will also be one of the competition for the owner of the Louwai Mansion this time." Say to you stinky boy Uncle Han, Uncle Han will reveal something to you today, although the building outside the building is mysterious, this Jiang family can make friends, especially since they only have such an only daughter in this vein. So ah if, I mean if, if you can marry her back and become a daughter-in-law, then who will dare to touch you in the future, even if the identity of your Donghai Shen family is known, it doesn't matter. ”
Han Zhongjing laughed, the words behind him were very unreasonable, but Shen Jing's request to contact Jiang Ning was somewhat clear, and for a while, it was as if he had been said in his mind, and there were no words.
Han Zhongjing looked at Shen Jing's reaction and said with some amusement: "Could it be that the first condition mentioned by the little girl is really related to this matter?" Hehehe, I guess, I guess, don't you want you to be their Jiang family's son-in-law? ”
After Han Zhongjing's words were finished, Shi Yu and Su Yao, who were sitting on both sides of Shen Jing, looked at him with their eyes brushed together.
Shen Jing naturally felt their eyes for the first time, and his body tensed a little uncomfortably.
Although Uncle Han didn't guess all right, it was already quite the same. Except that the matter between him and Jiang Ning was fake, everything else was not wrong. Shen Guo glanced at the three people with different expressions with some embarrassment, and he didn't hide anything, and replied: "It's a little different from what Uncle Han thought. Miss Jiang's first request was indeed related to this matter, but it was not to let me get into the past, but to act on the scene and pretend to be for three years. ”
Shi Yu and Su Yao, who were listening from the side, obviously relaxed a little at this time, but they were still unhappy, so they lost their appetite for the food in the bowl.
"Can't you stop doing it? Is it okay not to pretend? Shi Yu looked at Shen Jing and whispered.
"He must have been overjoyed." Su Yao on the side added fuel and vinegar.
Han Zhongjing knew Shi Yu's careful thoughts, and he also saw Su Yao in his eyes, shaking his head and chuckling, insiders, he couldn't see clearly.
Shen Jing looked at Su Yao, then looked at Shi Yu again, and said softly: "We just take what we need, there will be no harm." And I don't have to be like that all the time, I still live as usual on weekdays, and as for what she does and what I do, I don't bother. ”
Shi Yu didn't answer, and neither did Su Yao.
Han Zhongjing looked amused and accosted: "Don't worry too much, if it's not the Longtan Tiger's Den, maybe it will be very good for this stinky boy!" ”
After he finished speaking, the two of them still lowered their heads and thought about their own thoughts, but did not answer.
Seeing that the two of them didn't respond, Han Zhongjing continued: "I don't believe what the senior master said!" Although the outer building is mysterious, it is not that scary. When I traveled with my senior brother in the rivers and lakes, I had a relationship with her father, Jiang Taixuan. Because I had learned some Taoist physiognomy techniques, I used them occasionally. The ancients were born from the heart, and the first view was the heart. The root of the appearance of the heart, the judgment of the heart and the good and evil self-seeing, the appearance of the heart of the doer, the observation of the action and the blessing and misfortune can be known. I only learned physiognomy, so I couldn't get a glimpse of the whole picture, but even so, I can see that Jiang Taixuan's heart is like a mirror, and at first glance it is transparent, not such a sinister person, if it weren't for the lack of chance, I would definitely make friends in my early years. ”
Han Zhongjing said a lot, but the two little girls didn't seem to appreciate it, and they still didn't react, but the expression on their faces eased, and they were not as worried as before.
After another moment, Shi Yu looked up at Shen Jing and asked, "Brother Shen, have you eaten dinner?" If not, I'll help you get the dishes and chopsticks. ”
As he spoke, Shi Yu was about to get up. Shen Kuang grabbed Shi Yu's arm and helped her to sit down again: "I've eaten, Shi Yu, eat quickly!" ”
Shen Guan smiled and comforted Shi Yu, the little girl was obviously in a much better mood, and it was more effective than her master who said a lot of things.
Then, Shen Jing looked at Su Yao again. It's just that before he could speak, Su Yao said in advance: "I understand, you don't have to explain anything to me!" ”
Looking at her words, it didn't seem to be a lie, so Shen Jing didn't explain too much, and only said softly: "Don't worry about me, I can handle it." ”
Su Yao nodded lightly.
After talking to them, Shen Jing looked at Han Zhongjing again and asked, "Senior Uncle Han, did you come to Meiwu City this time also for Fu Xuanjian?" ”
"Hehehe, although Fu Xuan is a famous sword on the Hundred Swords List, it doesn't mean much to me. If it weren't for your master asking me to take care of you in the future, you would have thought that I came so far to see your son. ”
Hearing that Uncle Han talked about his master, Shen was stunned.
Han Zhongjing also saw Shen Jing's reaction, and knew what he was thinking, so he continued: "Don't inquire about your master's whereabouts, I promised him that he couldn't tell you." What he did this time was about him as well as about you. There are too many long-cherished wishes in the past, all of which are past grievances in his heart, and when it's time to cut off, he doesn't want to involve you, so he has something to hide. If you have lived with him for twenty years, you should know his temperament, and if it were not for the things of the world, if it were not for the fact that he could not live with his heart, he would not be like this. ”
After listening to Shen Jing, he surprisingly didn't ask, he understood the master's hardship, and also understood the meaning of his uncle's words.
After a while, Han Zhongjing said again: "The birth of the Fu Xuan Sword has caused the current chaos in Meiwu City. Your master had expected all this, and he was afraid that the court would be unfavorable to you, so he told me in advance to let me come here to protect you. I don't care what you want to do, and I won't take action until you die, the rivers and lakes, you don't go to the rivers and lakes, how can you grow if you don't get injured and bleed. ”
"I've been taught, uncle."
Han Zhongjing squinted at Shen Jing: "You look like your bastard master, it's very annoying." ”
Hearing the previous sentence, Shen Kuang thought it was some kind of boastful words, but when he heard the latter sentence, he "passed away" on the spot.
"If there is anything you want to ask, just ask, and if you can tell you, I will tell you." Han Zhongjing took a sip of the wine jug and said casually.
Shen Guo thought for a while and asked, "Is it dangerous to enter the Qinling Mountains with Louwailou?" ”
Han Zhongjing smiled and asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”
"It's not the most dangerous inside. If you really get the sword out, then it will be the time for the tigers and wolves to wait. It takes a long time to refine the sword that has not recognized the master, so there will inevitably be people who have malicious intentions to snatch it. At that time, the rest of the people for this sword, but it was not a casual fight that could be ended, and the century-old inheritance of the family and faction might be on that sword, and they would think it was worth it when the time came. ”
Shen Guo thought for a while, and then said slowly: "This time, without the seniors of the Grandmaster Realm, will the competition be so fierce?" ”
Han Zhongjing chuckled when he heard this, and said, "It seems that that little girl really didn't treat you as an outsider, and I will tell you about this matter." Having said that, once the rest of the family sects reacted and knew that Fu Xuanjian's news was true, then do you think they would try their best to move one or two old ancestors to sit in the town, and there would be people outside the building. ”
Shen Jing nodded: "It's a senior named Wen Hua." ”
"Dong Xuanshou Wen Hua, I didn't expect him to come. Did he bring a sword? Han Zhongjing said with some surprise.
"No, but his grandson has a sword in his hand."
"Wind Sword?" Han Zhongjing asked.
"It seems that I heard his grandson talk about the Fufeng swordsmanship. Uncle Han, is this Fufeng Sword also a sword on the Hundred Swords List? ”
"Well, it's the thirteenth sword. So, it's only a matter of time before other forces send people, and if it really starts, you must be careful in everything. ”
At the end, Han Zhongjing's tone was steady, and he was instructing. Shen Guo nodded, remembering Uncle Han's words.
Han Zhongjing didn't know what he was thinking, and after sighing, he stopped talking and drank alone.
Seeing this, Shen wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start, so he gave up.
Shi Yu and Su Yao's emotions have eased a lot at this time, and their displeasure is just a little bit in their hearts, and it is good to figure everything out at this time. The three of them talked about each other, and slowly, Han Zhongjing also joined in and chatted about some interesting things, and the atmosphere in the hall eased a lot.
