Chapter 679: Xu Family Zhuangzi
"This little brother is invited, I don't know which direction Xujiazhuang is?"
"Well, this road goes straight to the end, and the fork in the road goes left for another hour, and there are two big locust trees in front of the gate, which is Xujiazhuang."
Tianquan thanked and continued to walk along the road, since he left Orion's house, he had walked a day and a night, because he was worried that the remnants of the fox fairy tower would accidentally hurt the innocent, he did not dare to go to the farmer's place this time, but chose a place in the rivers and lakes.
Xu Manqing, the owner of Xujiazhuang, is known as "Thousand Cup Swordsman" by the people of the rivers and lakes, although this person is addicted to alcohol, but his temperament is the light wind and the moon, he is a person who values righteousness and light wealth, and the name of benevolence spreads all over the world, and many chivalrous guests take the initiative to vote when they hear his name.
Tianquan also planned to hide in Xu Manqing's Zhuangzi, so there were two considerations for such a choice.
First, Xu Manqing's name of benevolence and righteousness is outside, he is sincere and like-minded, and he will not be turned away, and second, the "Thousand Cup Swordsman" is strong in martial arts, if the demon monk companion kills the door, he also has a good helper.
According to the guidance of the passer-by, Tianquan soon came to the front of Xujiazhuang, and the porter saw that he was awe-inspiring and upright, and he was carrying a sword, so he immediately stepped forward and asked respectfully: "I don't know what happened to this young man?" ”
Tianquan hugged his fists and said: "Under is a Jianghu ranger, who has traveled here, and has heard the name of 'Thousand Cup Swordsman' for a long time, and has come to visit." ”
"I see, Shaoxia hurry up, please, my master is busy, please stay in another room for a while." The porter returned the salute and turned sideways to lead the way.
Tianquan hurriedly said: "Don't dare to disturb Xu Daxia, just wait below." ”
The porter took Tianquan to another room for a rest, and also served tea, which was in the same courtyard as the main hall, separated by two walls.
Although it is said that it is not polite, Tianquan is a person who practices martial arts, and his ears and eyes are far more sensitive than ordinary people, so it is inevitable that he still heard Xu Manqing scolding people in the hall.
Xu Manqing seemed to be angry about something, and there was a sound of a cup hitting the ground in the hall, and then the two attendants crawled out of the hall.
Tianquan saw it from the window, and guessed in his heart that Xu Manqing had encountered something that could make him so angry with his demeanor so disregarding.
After a while, Xu Manqing, who was still angry, came to see Tianquan in another room, this Xu Daxia was born with a short body, a plump form, like a fat gourd, and there was still a bit of wine on his face.
However, Tianquan keenly noticed that although this person was born rich, he was extremely stable, and he seemed to be a vain step on the top of the wine, but in fact, there was a special charm in it.
"I've seen Xu Daxia." Tianquan got up and clenched his fists.
"Young heroes don't have to be polite."
Xu Manqing held a hand, and when Tianquan quietly looked at the other party, he was also looking at the young man in front of him, and the porter came to report that a young talent came to the door, he felt that the other party was exaggerating at first, but now when he sees it, it is indeed a bit extraordinary.
Xu Manqing beckoned Tianquan to sit down, and then asked straight to the point: "I don't know where the young man has been?" To my Zhuangzi, but do you have something to ask for? ”
Tianquan replied with a smile: "Under the surname Qian, he was originally a person from Sichuan and Shu, who practiced in the mountains all the year round, and now he came to the Central Plains to travel with a little success, and was accidentally chased and killed by a group of thieves, so he had to come to Xu Daxia to seek refuge." ”
】
In addition to the origin of his identity, the rest of Tianquan didn't lie, he was kind-hearted, so naturally he couldn't let Xu Manqing block the knife for him, and the matter had to be explained.
After Xu Manqing listened, his gaze at Tianquan was full of appreciation, and there were many people who had been chased and killed by enemies in the rivers and lakes before, and had to come to his rivers and lakes, but those people talked about the past mostly secretively, not as calm as this kid.
Xu Manqing's name of benevolence and righteousness is outside, as long as he is a like-minded person, no matter what difficulties come to the door, he will not be stingy to help, but some people are more thoughtful, unwilling to be honest, or have ulterior motives, although he treats everyone equally, but after all, he can't look down on it in his heart.
"I see, I understand Qian Shaoxia's intention."
Xu Manqing nodded with a smile, and then instructed the housekeeper behind him: "Go and clean up a guest room and let Qian Shaoxia stay." ”
"Yes." The butler stepped back.
"Thank you Xu Daxia for your help, today's great grace, I will definitely remember it in my heart." Tianquan said gratefully.
Xu Manqing waved his hand again and again: "Hahaha, the young man is serious, my Zhuangzi has a lot of empty rooms, but it is just for you to live here for a while." ”
Seeing that the other party said this, Tianquan sighed in his heart that Xu Manqing's name of benevolence and righteousness was indeed not false.
"By the way, there is another thing, the thieves provoked this time are some foreign monks, but some of them are no different from the monks of the Central Plains, Xu Daxia must be more careful." Tianquan did not forget to remind.
"Hu Seng ......" Xu Manqing was slightly surprised, and then nodded and said: "I remember, the young man is worry-free, and the foreigners dare to appear in the Central Plains to be presumptuous, hmph, I Xu Manqing is the first to disagree to this matter." ”
After saying everything that should be said, Tianquan went to the guest room to rest under the guidance of the servant, and after a day of sleepless driving, he was already tired, and now it was finally safe, and he almost fell asleep with a pillow.
When he woke up again, it was getting late, and there was an embarrassing sound in Tianquan's stomach, and he got up and walked outside the house, and the servant who had been waiting for him immediately beckoned someone to bring the food.
"Thank you." Tianquan said with gratitude.
Xujiazhuang's hospitality, indeed feel at home, Tianquan after eating, came to the courtyard to relax, and happened to meet the housekeeper who hurried by.
Thinking of the day, he hesitated for a moment, and stepped forward to call the butler.
"What's the matter with Qian Shaoxia? If there is any inconvenience, just say it, and I will take care of it for you immediately. When the housekeeper saw that an outsider was coming, he immediately put away the sadness on his face and said respectfully.
"No, no, no, Xu Daxia's kindness is already deserved, naturally there is nothing wrong," after that, Tianquan hesitated, and then asked: "It's just that I saw the housekeeper's expression in a hurry, I don't know if there is something wrong with Zhuangzi?" ”
"This ......" The housekeeper was slightly stunned, and his face seemed to be a little embarrassed.
Tianquan hurriedly explained: "I have no intention of peeping at Xujiazhuang, but I occasionally saw Xu Daxia angry in Xia this morning, and now the housekeeper is in such a hurry...... There is no other meaning in the next, but the truth of knowing the grace of the picture is still understood, if there is a difficulty, or you can make a little effort in the next. ”
The housekeeper seemed to be moved, he hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed, arched his hand at Tianquan and said: "I see that Shaoxia is also kind, since this is the case, I will not hide it, and I hope that after Shaoxia knows, don't tell others." ”
Tianquan had nothing to do, and listened to the housekeeper sigh again, and said slowly: "This fact is a scandal of the Xu family, can the young man know that my lord has a very beloved daughter, who is very old, but a few days ago, he didn't know what kind of bewitchment he was subjected to, and he actually eloped with a foreign man...... Alas. ”
