When Xu Qingchen first came, Feng Yao said that "the new master has not yet begun to win people's hearts", which is actually not quite true. Shen Xiangzhi has been doing this thing to win people's hearts, she just gave people a sense of domineering as soon as she arrived at the Thorn Gate, but these days, she treats people very politely, but there are too few expressions on her face, someone has done something wrong, as long as the mistake is not big, she rarely investigates. Otherwise, as soon as Qiao Fei died, the Thorn Gate would probably be scattered.

Shen Xiangzhi is still quite satisfied with the current situation of the Thorn Gate, and the people who remain are more heartfelt to her, and when she says "dealing with Ye Yu Xiaozhu" one day, not too many people will leave.

Xu Qingchen learned the news of his trip to Luzhou from Yang Fan.

Xu Qingchen looked worried.

Yang Fan smiled and asked, "What? Don't know the bottom of your heart?"

Xu Qingchen nodded and said, "At that time, after we met in Luzhou again, Yeyu Xiaozhu made a move on me, and many of them remember my face. I'm going to Luzhou now, but I'm afraid that I will be targeted as soon as I enter the city."

Yang Fan said, "There will definitely be danger, but you are now a person from the Thorn Gate, and if they want to move you, you have to weigh it."

Xu Qingchen smiled and said, "Brother Yang, I'm not afraid of danger, I'm just afraid that it won't be good if I bring trouble to the Thorn Gate because of me."

"Hahaha," Yang Fan smiled, "We, the Shen Sect Master, do we look like people who are afraid of trouble?"

Xu Qingchen replied, "It's okay, take this opportunity to see the market."

"I believe in you," Yang Fan said, "in handling things, as well as your kung fu and brains, you are very good. Lord Shen values you very much, otherwise, I would have to go to Luzhou."

"Ugh...... Brother Yang, I'm ......."

"Don't worry, my body is very afraid of tossing now, it's a good thing for me that you go."

As he spoke, Yang Fan coughed a few more times, he covered his mouth with a white silk scarf, and there was a grunt in his throat, and it seemed that his condition was not very good. Through this period of contact, Xu Qingchen's understanding of Yang Fan has also deepened a lot. Although he is nominally his superior, he has never put on a shelf, except that his personality is not like Yao Dagongzi, he is very similar to Yao Dagongzi in other places, which makes Xu Qingchen have an inexplicable sense of trust in him.

Xu Qingchen suddenly asked, "Brother Yang, have you practiced two sets of internal skills?"

Yang Fan nodded and replied, "Yes, a set of family heirloom memorable tips, and a set of body refining skills passed down to me by the old sect master." People in the door, as well as many people in the rivers and lakes, know about this.

Xu Qingchen suddenly stood up straight, his legs shoulder-width apart, and his hands held the ball on his chest. Take three deep breaths, then hold your breath for a long time, then take three deep breaths, and so on. Yang Fan looked at him, not knowing why.

Xu Qingchen exhaled lightly and changed back to his original standing posture: "The day I first came, I knew that you were using internal strength to improve your physique, although the old master's body refining skills were exquisite, they were not pure. I observed for a few days, and improved this set of exercises slightly, removing the killing, and leaving behind a pure physique. In the future, if you follow the method I just used to pour the Exercise of the Body Cultivation into it, the effect should be much stronger than that of the Exercise of the Body."

Yang Fan looked at Xu Qingchen in surprise, this person had too many surprises for himself. When he fights with others, if the gap between the two is not big, he can always find the weakness of the other party in the shortest time. Although he never stopped listening to those profound internal skills, he knew the pros and cons of the exercises after seeing people use them. In just one month, you can modify the physical exercise into a set of exercises that purely exercise the body. In a sense, Xu Qingchen is also a genius.

Yang Fan nodded a little convincingly: "I originally thought that Qingfeng Guan Zhu Mingyu, Bai Jiabai Boju, and me, the three of us are the leaders of the young generation, and no matter how good other young talents are, it is difficult to surpass the three of us. Brother Qingchen, I've lost my eyes."

Xu Qingchen smiled and said, "Brother Yang, if you see those two girls in Chaolan Valley in the future, as well as the young man named Duyun, you will find that you are very good at walking."

Yang Fan pinched his chin and asked, "I've long wanted to ask, were those two girls in the Medicine Immortal Valley in the past few days really so amazing? I've heard people say that when a long sword shakes, it will be cold and light. Before, I thought it was an inherent exaggeration of the Jianghu people, but there are so many people who say it, and I believe it a little."

Xu Qingchen did not answer directly, but pulled it out

His own long sword stabbed three times in a row towards the void like lightning.

Then he put away his sword and asked Yang Fan, "Brother Yang, is my sword fast?"

"Quick."

"Those two girls in Chaolan Valley are ten times faster than mine."

Thirty swords stabbed in an instant? Yang Fan couldn't believe his ears a little. If it's really so powerful, how did the door master beat that cold-faced fairy?

As if he saw what Yang Fan was thinking, Xu Qingchen said, "I don't know how deep the sect master's internal strength is, I only know that when she was against the jade girl in the Lan Valley of the last dynasty, she had a lot of fun."

This means that in the past, I played with you, and it was all a joke.

Yang Fan smiled resignedly and said, "It doesn't matter, my person's martial arts have come to an end, and I don't dare to make any progress for the rest of my life."

Yang Fan said this easily, but Xu Qingchen could still hear a faint sadness. The pride of the sky, but unfortunately the sky is jealous of the talent, and he has to count the days to live the rest of his life at a young age. It's rare that Yang Fan can see it like this.

The two stopped talking about this, and Yang Fan brought the wine he had treasured for a few years, which was regarded as seeing off Xu Qingchen.

Early the next morning, Xu Qingchen went on the road early, of course, he didn't forget to get the double knife he built from Liu Wei.

After a day and a half of travel, I inquired in many ways, and finally found the Heavenly Fist Gate.

This sect is located in the middle of the mountain, the scale is not large, and it is estimated that there are only eleven or two people living in it. At this time, it was almost noon, and the Heavenly Fist Gate was quiet. Xu Qingchen shouted "Miss Ayahan" at the door, but no one answered. The door was unlocked, so he simply pushed it open and entered.

The scene inside the door was much more dilapidated than he had imagined, and it did not look like it was inhabited.

He walked around the inside and heard the sound of people moving outside the courtyard walls.

Xu Qingchen walked around the courtyard wall and saw a small thatched house built next to the original site of the Heavenly Fist Gate, and a woman in pink was standing at the door, washing her hair in a brass basin.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the woman dodged into the thatched hut.

"Who?!" A coquettish sound came from inside the house.

Xu Qingchen replied, "Miss Ayahan, it's me."

A head poked out of the door frame and stared at Xu Qingchen curiously. Ayahan's head and face were covered with water droplets, and she hadn't dried them yet, and when she saw that it was Xu Qingchen, she smiled and said, "It's you, wait for me for a while."

After a while, Ayahan, whose hair was half dry, walked out.

"I thought the next time we met would be a long time later."

Xu Qingchen took off the double knives on his back and said, "It just so happened that the door sent me to Luzhou, and I happened to pass by here. Here you go, the twin knives that you built."

Ayahan took the double knife, which were two very beautiful Yanling knives, but the blades were thinner and shorter than ordinary Yanling knives.

Ayahan skillfully danced a knife flower, and it could be seen that she couldn't put down these two knives.

"It's like it's made in a mold, and there's no difference in weight...... Thank you."

Xu Qingchen nodded: "It's good if you like it." Look at the sword flower you just had, you haven't practiced much during this time, right?"

"Well, I'm actually a bit of a martial arts idiot." Ayahan put the double knife into the sheath, brought two small stools, and said, "Sit, I won't invite you into the house, the girl's boudoir, you can't enter it."

Xu Qingchen looked at Ayahan's "boudoir" and quipped, "Your boudoir is too simple."

Ayahan sat on a low stool, her chin in her hands, she glanced at the Heavenly Fist Gate next door, then looked at her small thatched house, and said, "I didn't want to live here, this thatched house was lived in by a bunch of old couples a long time ago, but they didn't know when they moved out, so I moved in. To tell you the truth, I don't dare to live in the Heavenly Fist Gate."

"Why?"

Ayahan looked natural: "I'm scared."

"Scared?"

"It's such a big house, I live alone, and I'm so panicked at night. I wanted to tidy up the house, but I didn't know when I was going to tidy it up, and I thought that there might be no one to live in in the future, so I gave up."

"I heard that the eldest brother still has some in Yangzhou

Family property, why don't you go to them? I live here alone, lonely."

"I'm more scared to go to them."

"Afraid of what?"

"Urging marriage!" Ayahan got angry, "Every time I see them, I don't have anything else to say, they always urge me to find someone to marry, I don't understand, isn't it good to be alone?"

For Zhang Yuan and his wife's ability to urge marriage, Xu Qingchen has seen it.

The two chatted for a long time, and Xu Qingchen saw that the time was almost up, so he said, "Miss Ayahan, I still have to go to Luzhou......

Ayahan stretched and interrupted him, "Then let's go."

"Shall we?"

"That's right."

These two words made Xu Qingchen digest for a long time, and he asked, "You...... You want to come with me?"

"That's right." That's right.

"I'm not against it, but why? It's dangerous for me to go."

Ayahan replied generously, "I have no money."

"Huh?" This answer was quite surprising.

"The last time I saw you, I listened to my sister-in-law's words and dressed up well, and the pile of rouge gouache, clothes, jewelry, etc., almost spent my money. If you don't come today, I'll probably have to go down the mountain and loot."

"Hey, hey, hahaha......" Xu Qingchen couldn't help laughing.

"Laughing at what? What I'm saying is true!"

"I believe, I believe," Xu Qingchen finally held back his laughter, "Then let's go."

"Let's go back to the mountains first."

"What are you going to do in the back mountains?"

"I thought I'd die here for the rest of my life, so I let the horse go. I see you're coming on horseback, and I can't follow on two legs, so let's go back to the mountains and get the horse back."

…

Of course, Xu Qingchen would not follow Aya Han to do such a ridiculous thing as "catching horses", but fortunately, he had enough money to spend, and when he went out, Shen Xiangzhi gave him a lot from the treasury, and he could still buy a horse.

Rushing with Ayahan, Xu Qingchen did not reject it at all. First of all, at least there is someone with you, and it won't be boring. Secondly, he likes Ayahan very much - that is, he simply likes it, not the love between men and women - this girl is very delicate in style and behavior, but she is very emotional and very simple. She followed Xu Qingchen generously, and before she reached a foothold, she first opened up to eat and stay. According to Ayahan's words, this is called "eating people's shortest, taking people's soft hands", she doesn't do the work of eating rice.

But in the eyes of outsiders: Isn't this just a rich boy who is away with a personal maid?

Xu Qingchen said to Ayahan, "Don't be so polite, you are my eldest brother's junior sister, that is, my younger sister, you should take care of you."

And Ayahan's answer was: "I don't want to either, but you won't bargain, you can give as much as people say several times, I'm in a hurry."

Xu Qingchen understood how she saved her hundreds of taels.

In order to make Ayahan speechless to be urged to marry Zhang Yuan and his wife next time, Xu Qingchen secretly reported that Zhang Yuan used her "dowry" to participate in the gambling game.
