Chapter 18: Hatred of the Heavenly Harmony?
East of the North Beam, Drum Stand.
The drum platform is located at the junction of Hudong Road and Tianqi Road, there is a pass nearby, and the Chengtianfu with abundant water and grass is in the pass, and out of the pass, it is the eastern wilderness that is vast and sparsely populated.
Like the Southern Dynasties, the closer to the capital, the power of the rivers and lakes will inevitably be suppressed, and ordinary people in the rivers and lakes have to leave the east and south of the lake to enter the rivers and lakes, and for this reason, the drum platform is also regarded as the gateway to the rivers and lakes in the east.
The news on the rivers and lakes was transmitted very quickly, although it had only been two or three days, and the drum platform on the border of Hudong Road had already received the wind that had just blown in the capital.
At noon, in the majestic city under the drum platform, countless people from the rivers and lakes went back and forth on the street, and in a wine shop on the side of the street, the storyteller's divine tone could be heard:
"There is a difference between yin and yang in the world, and people have black and white! Don't look at Hua Junchen, the son of Mrs. Hua, who is a son and brother with a lot of money and idleness during the day, but at night, he completely changed his personal ......"
The wine shop is lively and lively, full of three religions and nine streams from the north and south.
At a table by the window, two chivalrous women walking together sat opposite each other, also listening to the storyteller's storyteller.
The woman on the left is wearing a green gauze hat, although she can't see her face, but her slender and slender figure is very moving, just looking at the back, you know that she is a big beauty.
And the white-clothed heroine on the opposite side is taller, wearing a white dress, her cheeks are not powdered, she looks very cold, and she is still leaning on two iron shovels at hand, from her temperament to her figure, she doesn't look like a vase on the rivers and lakes.
For this reason, even if the two heroines are good-looking, no one dares to look at Beiliang Xiaoxiao, who is sitting in the wine shop.
After listening for an unknown amount of time, the beauty in Tsing Yi, who was sitting on the left, was a little puzzled and took the lead in asking:
"Bai Jin, where are these Five Immortals of the East China Sea sacred?"
On the other side of the table, Xue Baijin was like an ice lump as always, and responded when he heard this:
"I haven't heard of it, it may be an old man who has just come out of the mountain. Hua Junchen's name, I have heard of it, the swordsman over there in Chengtianfu, born in a family, is said to have the background of a midstream grandmaster, but like you, he has no actual combat record, and the specific depth is unknown......"
“……”
When Luo Ning heard this, she took a soft breath, causing the little watermelon to bulge.
Luo Ning has been the 'No. 1 beauty in the rivers and lakes' since she walked the mountains and lakes, and she didn't rely on her ability to eat, and the bodyguards around her, first her ex-girlfriend Shui'er, then Bai Jin, and then the thief who hadn't passed through the door, escorted each other seamlessly, and there were really not many opportunities for actual combat.
But saying that she had no actual combat record, Luo Ning still didn't admit it, and responded:
"I've done a lot of things in the past, but I just don't want to publicize it. Last year in the capital, I took the night terror hall to capture the wingless owl of Yanzhou; Later, he also gave Xu Bailin, a sword ......"
"Heh~"
Xue Baijin took a sip of his wine glass and continued to listen.
??
Luo Ning faced this perfunctory attitude, her eyes were slightly cold:
"Xue Baijin, if you think I'm a burden, I'll just go back. It's not like I can't live without you......"
Xue Baijin didn't mean that, seeing that his wife was divorced, he picked up the wine jug again and poured a glass for Luo Ning:
"I don't mean to look down on you, you can practice kung fu slowly, and when you get rid of all the old men, you will naturally become a top grandmaster."
Luo Ning felt that Bai Jin just thought she was cooking, but after so many years, she had long been used to it, and she no longer played the piano to the cow at the moment, and continued to listen to the story.
Last time in Jingjie City, Luo Ning accompanied Shui Shui Sanniang and them after the five-person group, because Bai Jin was in a hurry to leave, she returned to the inn the next day, and soon after she and Bai Jin set off again and continued each other's journey to the rivers and lakes.
The purpose of Bai Jin's trip is to improve his martial arts with war, and at the same time find a target to achieve the name of 'Martial Saint';
Although the martial saints of the world are all clear, who to find to open the knife, the two of them have not yet paid attention.
The two saints of the Southern Dynasty are too domineering, Bai Jin may not be sure how to deal with them, and Xiang Hanshi will definitely not be able to beat them, and the people who can find them are Beiyunbian and Zhongsun Jin.
But these two are obviously not good at stubble, no matter how much they are better than Zuo Xianwang.
In the end, King Zuo Xian took drugs and fought for his life, and he could barely pick two out, if these two people also took out some kind of ghost things, with Bai Jin's cultivation of entering the martial saint, they were likely to play themselves in.
For this reason, the two of them spent these days wandering around the rivers and lakes of Beiliang, wanting to find out the exact roots of these two people first by wandering and visiting.
Luo Ning is already a wife after all, she has tasted the good of men, and now she is out with her ex-girlfriend, there is nothing during the day, and it is always a little empty at night.
And just as Luo Ning's eyes were flashing with thoughts, Xue Baijin, who was sitting opposite, suddenly turned his head to look at the street outside.
Jingle bell~
Luo Ning then looked back, first heard the sound of horse bells, and then the three horses walked slowly from the street where the rivers and lakes were crowded.
Walking on the back of the horse, sitting was a woman, holding a little girl in her arms, who looked like a mother and daughter, looking left and right with curiosity in her eyes.
On the two horses in front of them, there were two middle-aged men, both with knives at their waists, chatting as they walked:
"What kind of immortal is this Hua Junchen? The name sounds familiar......"
"It seems to be Beiliang Junjie more than 20 years ago, the son of Mrs. Hua, and the 'Sword Gentleman' Lu Xingjun...... Hmmm......"
"Oh, I remember, 'Jade Sword Shuangying'! I thought it was a playboy with a false name, but I didn't expect to be a late bloomer, and now I'm famous. Anyway, Lu Xingjun was quite famous back then, what is he doing now? ”
"It's hard to be a son-in-law, it's hard to get out of the mess who plays with swords, but it's ...... to please women"
……
Because both of them were wearing hats immediately, they couldn't see their faces clearly, and Luo Ning didn't recognize them at first, but when she heard her voice, she was stunned:
"Qiu Tianhe?"
On the street, three horses walked unhurriedly.
Qiu Tianhe rode a horse and walked beside Xuanyuan Tiangang, because a year after he was released from prison, he lived a leisurely life, and he ate better, but he had a sense of rejuvenation, his hair was black, and his face was in his early forties at most.
And Xuanyuan Tiangang has long withdrawn from the rivers and lakes, but since the Xuanyuan Dynasty lost the position of the sword leader and the rivers and lakes disappeared, Junshantai fell into a situation where the dragons were leaderless, and the old man in the sect was blocked in Huangquan Town every day, begging him to go back to be the head.
Xuanyuan Tiangang was tired of the flies and dogs in the rivers and lakes because of the difficulty of filial piety and righteousness back then, and he didn't want his wife and daughter's peaceful life to be disturbed, so he went out to join Qiu Tian to travel in the north.
At this time, the two were chatting about the north and south rivers and lakes, and suddenly heard a whisper on the side of the street, "Qiu Tianhe?" Obviously surprised.
Qiu Tianhe followed the sound and turned his eyes, only to find that in the wine shop not far away, there were two familiar Jianghu heroines sitting.
Qiu Tianhe joined the marriage envoy team that year, was wanted by the imperial court and fled everywhere, and finally escaped by the protection of the Pingtian Sect; Before being betrayed and arrested and imprisoned, Qiu Tianhe lived near Nanxiao Mountain most of the time, and naturally knew Xue Baijin, otherwise he would not have taken Yunli to learn swordsmanship.
Seeing the iceberg woman as the leader, Qiu Tianhe thought he was dazzled, but when he found that Luo Ning was also sitting in front of him, he confirmed that he had met the old man of Pingtian Sect, and immediately quickly turned over and dismounted, and came to the outside of the wine shop:
"Why did you two come to Beiliang too? What about Yunli? ”
After Xue Baijin confirmed that it was Qiu Tianhe, he got up and walked out of the wine shop, because he hadn't seen him for more than two years, his attitude was quite kind, and he bowed:
"I haven't seen him for a few years, but Senior Qiu has changed a lot, and he is almost unrecognizable. Ning'er and I just came to the north for a casual walk, who are these three? ”
Qiu Tianhe is more than 20 years older than Xue Baijin, and when Xue Baijin was a child, he still dared to call himself an elder, but now the status of the two is very different, this 'senior' is really a little unbearable, and hurriedly waved his hand:
"What seniors, I count me as Uncle Night Boy, the generation of Night Terror Hall and Yunli, then we can be regarded as equals, and we can call him by his name in the future. This is Xuanyuan Tiangang, you should have heard of it......"
Xue Baijin's eyesight is not bad, just looking at the weather of the person on the horse, he roughly guessed that it was the boss of the 'Yunze Three Heroes', and after getting confirmation, he bowed again:
"It turned out to be a Xuanyuan hero, and he has admired his name for a long time since he was a child, and this is the first time I have seen him."
Xuanyuan Tiangang ran to this foreign country, and suddenly met two young women, and they also knew Qiu Tianhe, so he naturally had some doubts, turned over and dismounted and made a salute:
"The girl has heard my story?"
Qiu Tianhe saw that Gangzi's newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and dared to call the one in front of him 'girl', and hurriedly reminded in a low voice:
"This is the Pingtian Sect Master, you are polite."
“?!”
When Xuanyuan Tiangang heard this name, his eyelids jumped.
The name of the Pingtian Sect Master, for the people of the rivers and lakes of the Southern Dynasty, is worthy of being known to everyone, like thunder, and even greater deterrent than the three immortals on the mountain.
After all, the three immortals on the mountain are strong, but they are all already mountain people who have jumped out of the Three Realms, even if you talk nonsense, people don't bother to take care of it.
And Xue Baijin is different, the 'first person under the mountain' appointed by Fengguancheng is still in the rivers and lakes, who dares to provoke, people will really come to teach you the rules.
But in Xuanyuan Tiangang's impression, Xue Baijin, who is 'invincible under the mountain', should be a man, with extraordinary martial arts and a very domineering personality, and the cold woman in front of him ......
Although it was unbelievable, Qiu Tianhe should not make such a joke, and Xuanyuan Tiangang still solemnly made a salute at the moment:
"It turned out to be Xue Nuxia, Shu Xuanyuan was clumsy and disrespectful."
And the mother and daughter who followed behind also dismounted at this time, and the little girl hid behind her mother, and muttered in a low voice:
"These two sisters are so beautiful~"
"Shh~"
……
Xue Baijin showed himself as a daughter in order to make it convenient for him to go to the rivers and lakes, because Qiu Tianhe had a close relationship with the Peace Heavenly Sect, and he didn't hide it at this time, but just looked Xuanyuan Tiangang up and down:
"Xuanyuan Daxia looks at the weather, and it is estimated that it is no worse than Ling Zun, and this trip is to accumulate fame?"
Xuanyuan Tiangang thirty years ago, he was the successor of the sword leader, although he retired to the rivers and lakes, he did not forget to practice, and he was the same as Xie Jianlan, he belonged to the martial arts who did not go out of the mountain. Hearing this, he shook his head and said:
"Xue Nuxia has won the award, and she has already retired from the rivers and lakes, how can she be embarrassed to go out of the mountains again when she is old, this trip is just to accompany the old enemy to play in the mountains and rivers......"
Luo Ning saw that it was inconvenient for a group of people to stand at the door and speak, so he raised his hand and signaled:
"Let's go in and talk about it."
Since Qiu Tianhe was released from prison, in order not to cause trouble for the guarantor's night terror, he has never been to Nanxiao Mountain, and the reunion in a different place at this time is quite warm, and after chatting a few words in the wine shop, he asked in a low voice:
"You two came over and heard the news of the 'elixir'?"
Xue Baijin and Luo Ning were wandering around Beiliang, and they had heard a lot of messy news about the rivers and lakes, but the rumors of refining the elixir had not yet spread, and they didn't know it at present.
Luo Ning sat down at the wine table, sat with the little girl on her lap, and was fantasizing about what it would be like to give birth to a girl in the Night Terror Hall, when she heard the words, she wondered:
"What elixir?"
Qiu Tianhe looked left and right, and said mysteriously:
"It's the Tianlang bead secretly imitated by Beiliang. A few days ago, I was wandering around Tianqi Road, and occasionally met Yin Shicheng's son in Fucheng, and drank with the son of the local prefect; I eavesdropped on it at the time, and during the banquet, I said that 'the Northern Liang Imperial Court is working on a miracle medicine, and his father is going to get one for him, and he will be ranked as a great grandmaster in the future, and so on.
"The medicine imitated by the Northern Liang Imperial Court, if even that kind of wine bag and rice bag can be used, then other people will definitely be able to use it. If you come to Ning'er, maybe like the Night Terror Hall, you will be among the martial arts next year......"
Luo Ning, as the first woman in the Night Terror Hall, naturally knew how terrifying the growth of the Night Terror Hall was after using the Tianlang Bead to be reborn, and said with a slight hesitation:
"Night Terror Hall said that Tianlangzhu has to lay a foundation since childhood, otherwise he will die if he touches it. If Beiliang can come up with a medicine that anyone can take, then Wu Kui and Wusheng will not be able to go everywhere in the future? ”
Xue Baijin shook his head and said, "Snow Lake Flower is an essential medicinal material for many divine prescriptions, and Snow Lake Powder can't replace it at all. Even if Beiliang spares no expense, it is impossible to use it all, and he can really practice at most three or five. ”
Qiu Tianhe held the wine bowl, shook his head and said, "Three or five is not a lot." Martial artists are flawless, as long as their comprehension and attainments can keep up, there is no bottleneck in the practice of martial arts in theory. The top ten grandmasters of the Northern Liang Dynasty were killed by the Night Terror Hall, and there are still five left, if everyone eats it, the strength will have to jump up a little, so that the rivers and lakes of the Southern Dynasty will all be suppressed by the north.
"I came here from Tianqi Road this trip just to go to Yanjing to have a look. If the news is true, this kind of artifact must not be monopolized by Beiliang. ”
Xue Baijin came to Beiliang to hang out, and thought about it:
"I've inquired recently, and if the news is true, I'll go get a few and come back......"
Qiu Tianhe went south and north for a year, and was slapped out by Fengguancheng for half a mile, and now his martial arts are improved, but he has only stepped into the threshold of the unity of heaven and man, let alone a miscellaneous fish lord.
And Xuanyuan Tiangang's strength is higher, he has jumped out of the category of miscellaneous fish, and he is barely a character; But he made a move to re-enter the rivers and lakes, and he will inevitably face the rivers and lakes every day in the future, which is very irresponsible for his wife and daughter.
Although Xuanyuan Tiangang will definitely help Qiu Tianhe, Qiu Tianhe doesn't want to be a sinner who pulls his brother into the quagmire of the rivers and lakes again, and he just wants to find out the news by himself to see if there is a chance to start.
Seeing that Xue Baijin opened his mouth to take over the matter, Qiu Tianhe was naturally a hundred willing, and arched his hand:
"Just wrap up the matter of inquiring about the news, although my martial arts are mediocre, but this favor can still help......"
……
——
Yanjing, Wanbao Building.
In the early morning, the sun jumped out of the city with the distant bells, and the bright spring light sprinkled on the corners of the mansion.
Hua Qingzhi just got up, because she couldn't sleep all night for the past two days, and she didn't sleep well, and she felt a little sleepy at this time, and she was washing under the service of Luzhu, and chatting softly:
"Luzhu, did you hear a cat meow last night?"
"Cat meow? I'm asleep and not paying attention, is there? ”
"It seems to be in the second half of the night, humming and chirping, I can't hear clearly......"
“……”
In the small courtyard not far away, the doors and windows of the room were tightly closed, and there was still a little daughter's incense in the house.
Night Terror was lying on his side on the bed, the skin wound on his shoulder had healed unconsciously, and only a few faint marks could be seen, and he was still asleep.
Fan Qinghe had three dizziness on his cheeks, and he treated the patient all night, in fact, he didn't fall asleep for long, but the sky was bright, and he woke up slowly, looked down first, and found that an arm was around his waist and holding Tuantuan, so he hurriedly moved his hand away, and turned back and said:
"It's dawn, why don't you go out soon......"
There was movement in his arms, and the night terror naturally woke up, propped himself up slightly, rubbed his face, and began to look for clothes left and right:
"I was a little tired yesterday and overslept."
"Do you know tired? Cows don't plough the fields as hard as you do......"
Fan Qinghe sat up, covered his graceful figure with a thin quilt, and wanted to say a few words about the night terror, but these meat words were really a bit difficult to say, so he finally forgot it.
Since the incident of Bishui Forest two days ago, because the movement is really a bit big, the capital is patrolling everywhere, and the Blue Dragon Club does not dare to send any more tasks, and the Night Terror Hall is rare for two days, every day is nothing more than sending Miss to school in the morning, picking people back in the afternoon, and then starting to spoil Aunt Fan.
Fan Qinghe still firmly believed that she was a doctor at first, but she pretended to be a cook in a wealthy family, and she was idle most of the time.
Seeing that Night Terror said that she was tired, but after putting on her robe, she came over again, and she frowned:
"You can't eat enough, do you? Eh......"
Night Terror Hall helped Qing He to have a good morning kiss, and then got up and said:
"Hurry up, if you get up late, you will be punished."
Fan Qinghe picked up his small coat and threw it away from the Night Terror, and waited for the Night Terror Hall to stand far away before he began to put it on.
Zhe Yunli and Qinghe live in the same courtyard, because the Night Terror Hall helps to sleep every day, and the quality of sleep is excellent, and they haven't woken up yet.
After the night terror hall tidied up his clothes, he first came to the next room, raised his hand and knocked:
"Yunli?"
"Huh? …… Oh, how the sky is bright......"
窸窸窣窣~
Night Terror heard the sound of getting dressed, so naturally he didn't push open the door to look, but just said outside the door:
"It's time to get up, I have to send Miss to school, let's go first."
In the room, Zhe Yunli was sleepy-eyed and tied to her belly pocket, and when she heard this, she was a little more sober, and she got up and walked quickly to the door, across the doorway:
"Cousin Surprise, when are we going to go out to run errands? As soon as you leave during the day, I can't run around as a maid, so I can only sweep the floor and wipe the table at home, and I'm about to suffocate to death. ”
Although he couldn't see anything through the door, the Night Terror Hall had amazing perception, and as soon as Yun Li's body moved, he could judge the outline of Yun Li's body just by the subtle movement of the air flow sliding through the delicate skin, and he frowned and said:
"You're not wearing clothes?"
"Huh?"
Zhi Yunli was stunned for a moment, looked down, and hurriedly leaned against the door with his belly pocket:
"What do I wear to sleep?"
?
Night Terror Hall felt that this was a bit familiar, and there was really no reason to refute it, so he said:
"My daughter's family wants to be gentle, and she is not dressed neatly and talking to a man like something. You have to wait, the city has been strictly investigated in the past few days, and there is no news from the Blue Dragon Society, so I'll take you out when there's news. ”
"Alas~ I know......"
……
After chatting with Yunli through the door, Night Terror went out of the yard, fetched a basin from his house, and went to the backyard to wash.
While he was busy, the green beads full of the fragrance of the book walked in with a basin of water, looking like pouring water, and when he found him, he hurriedly walked up to him and asked in a low voice:
"Night Boy, did you hear the cat bark Haru last night?"
"Huh?"
Night Terror Hall washed his face for a moment, and wanted to fool him casually, but he found that Lu Zhu's eyes were strange, and he obviously guessed something, so he raised his hand and made a splash:
"Don't ask too much about Lord Hua'an."
"Hee~"
Lu Zhu shrank her neck, very obediently didn't get to the bottom of it, after pouring the water, she also took a towel for Night Terror Hall to wipe her face, as if she was waiting for her future uncle.
Night Terror Hall was not easy to refuse this, and after cleaning up twice, he came to Hua Qingzhi's courtyard with Lu Zhu.
Hua Qingzhi had already cleaned up, still wearing the school uniform of Guozijian, and slowly went out by herself holding on to the door frame, and sat down in a wheelchair to see Night Terror Hall standing outside, her eyes were a little evasive, and she silently lowered her head and rolled out of the wheelchair.
Night Terror Hall knew that Hua Qingzhi was embarrassed because he accidentally touched it two days ago, he stepped forward and pushed the wheelchair, and there was no pot that he didn't open and mention, and asked:
"Today I went to study in Guozijian as usual?"
Hua Qingzhi waited for the Night Terror Hall to walk to the back, her expression was more normal, and she responded:
"Tomorrow is a routine break, only in the morning there is homework, and school is dismissed at noon. In the afternoon, there is a chess game on the side of Meixiang Chess Club, Lu Dacai from Yanjing City, against the old national player of Meixiang Academy, both of them are everyone in the chess world, do you have time? ”
Night Terror doesn't know anything about chess, but he doesn't have anything to do at the moment, and said with a smile:
"Miss wants to go, I, as a guard, naturally have to send you over, how can there be no time."
Hua Qingzhi is known as the little chess saint, and her interest in playing chess is no less than watching the martial artists fight, and when she saw that the Night Terror Hall had time to accompany her, she naturally chuckled.
The two chatted in such a low voice, and quickly walked out of the courtyard, passing by the courtyard where Hua Junchen lived, Hua Qingzhi turned her eyes to look, but saw that her father rarely did not get up early to box, but stood under the eaves, chatting with the housekeeper about things:
"Wang Shilang is also going?"
"The private banquet at home, the lord has invited him, but he has not invited Lord Wang, so that the concubine Niangniang knows that it is not too careful, and she should go to ......"
Seeing this, Hua Qingzhi asked in the corridor:
"Someone invited Daddy to a banquet?"
Hua Junchen heard his daughter's inquiry and responded:
"Li Guogong set up a banquet, please sit down for your father. It's a bit evil these days, and strange things always happen, in case two more people die in the mansion of Duke Li......"
Night Terror Hall followed Hua Qingzhi, Hua Qingzhi naturally knew it in her heart, and comforted:
"It was just a coincidence a few days ago, Dad, don't believe these strange and chaotic statements, just drink less during the banquet."
Hua Junchen always felt that he had no bottom in his heart, but as the saying goes, 'It's a blessing or a curse, and a disaster can't be avoided', so after thinking about it, he waved his hand and said:
"Just talk about it, hurry up and go to the Guozijian, I'm going to be late."
Hua Qingzhi didn't say much when she saw this, and after saying goodbye, she left Washington with Night Terror......
