Chapter 9: The Master of the Tang Sect (3)
Seeing that a table full of wine and food was set up, Zhu Wenyu said: "Hehe, old man, then I'm not welcome." He sat down at the table, picked up the chopsticks, stared at the dishes on the table, and looked salivating, deliberately exaggerated, which made Tang Yanxiong laugh: "You're welcome, you're welcome, the two young heroes just go home, no need to be restrained, come, come, Nangong Shaoxia, please sit." ”
The three of them sat down in turn, poured the wine, Tang Yanxiong raised his glass and said: "Come, the old man respects the two young heroes with a glass, one comes to wish the New Year, and the other is the two young heroes who are busy with the martial arts. ”
"Thank you, Lord Castle." "Thank you, Donal." Zhu Wenyu and Nangong Ling raised their glasses and drank them all.
"Old man, what gift? Tell me about it? Zhu Wenyu became curious, put down the wine glass and asked.
"Hehe, Zhu Shaoxia, Nangong Shaoxia, on the orders of the master of the door, Tangmen invited the two young heroes to watch and guide the New Year's party of the door, I don't know if the two young heroes can like this New Year's gift?" Tang Yanxiong said with a smile as he poured the wine.
"Really? That's great, thank you to the doorman, thank you to the castle owner for your kindness, hehe. Zhu Wenyu had already mentioned the New Year's competition with Nangong Ling in the Tang Gate, and when they heard the news, the two were really overjoyed. It is necessary to know that the Tang Sect is a well-known famous faction in the rivers and lakes, and the masters in the faction are like clouds, like this kind of martial arts competition, it will naturally be wonderful, and it is also a good time to learn, it is said that the martial arts have their own unique skills, and this kind of faction in the competition will generally never allow outsiders to watch so as not to steal the stunts, this time the master of the Tang Sect actually took the initiative to invite Zhu Wenyu and the two to watch the martial arts meeting, which really made the two of them both surprised and unexpected, and hurriedly stood up and saluted.
The three of them sat down again and continued to pour the wine, you come and go, Zhu Wenyu is a monkey character, at this time he was in a happy mood, he gaged while eating, and after a few rounds of wine, he finally made Tang Yanxiong and Nangong Ling, two people with a calm and serious temperament, also make a mood gradually rise, and the words gradually increased, and the scene gradually became lively. The three of them drank a little bit of wine, it was nearly two watches, and finally the banquet was withdrawn, Tang Yanxiong said goodbye, Zhu Wenyu and the two thought that they could watch the martial arts meeting tomorrow, they were excited, they didn't feel sleepy, and they pulled Nangong Ling to play chess, his spirit was just right, Nangong Ling was a little drowsy, and after a long and a long elimination, he was actually won by Zhu Wenyu twice, this was a rare time for him to win Nangong Ling, and he was in a good mood, so he had to pull the next game, so that Nangong Ling couldn't help but tell him to stop, and the two of them packed up and went to sleep.
The second day is the first day of the first month of the New Year of the sixteenth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty.
Sure enough, early in the morning, Tang Yanxiong had already sent someone to invite Zhu Wenyu and the others to the Fengwu Tower in the backyard, and when they arrived, they had already seen Tang Yanxiong greet him with a smile and said, "Come, two young heroes, please come and see the master." ”
Sure enough, I saw a big chair in the middle of the Fengwu Building, on which sat an old lady, holding a dragon head crutch, and a young girl standing next to her, very familiar, but it was the "dark fragrance and sparse shadow" Tang Yun who had several faces, and the one sitting in the middle was naturally the contemporary master of the Tang Gate, the leader of the Tang Sect for more than ten years, ranked among the five masters of martial arts, the famous Old Lady Tang, the "Drifting Snow Fairy" Shen Yuanxue. Zhu Wenyu and Nangong Ling hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
Zhu Wenyu took a few steps forward, hugged his fists and was about to salute, but he was stunned in place, this moment really surprised him, sitting in the middle was actually the old woman who was the florist in the flower room who chatted with him almost every day for a few days, and at this moment she changed into the same ordinary plain clothes, and she was sitting in the middle hall, with a solemn expression, but she completely lost the ordinary old woman in the flower room, but it was replaced by an unapproachable majesty, a kind of solemnity of Shen Yuanzhiyue, There was a momentum of arrogance in the world, it seemed that it was not the same person at all, but her appearance was clearly the old lady who was wielding a small shovel and fiddling with those pots of flowers and plants every day.
Zhu Wenyu was stunned there for a while, and his speechless stupid appearance caused a chuckle next to him, Zhu Wenyu subconsciously looked, but it turned out to be one of the four girls standing in the Tang Gate, this is about Mrs. Tang's four personal big girls Tang Shuyu, Tang Liuyun, Tang Qingfeng and Tang Binglu, it is said that these four big girls have been personally ** by Mrs. Tang herself, all of them have an amazing art industry, and their skills are among the first-class masters, these Zhu Wenyu do not know in detail, but they have already found out, The girl who chuckled just now was the girl who brought tea when he and Nangong Ling first entered Tangjiabao that day.
"Junior, Zhu Wenyu, has seen the master of the door." Zhu Wenyu settled down and arched his hand.
"Hehe, Zhu Gongzi doesn't have to be formal. Zhu Gongzi, please take a seat, Nangong Shaoxia, please take a seat. Shen Yuanxue smiled and waved her hand slightly.
"Thank you, Master." Although Zhu Wenyu was shocked and inexplicable, he also reacted at this time, and after saluting respectfully, he sat down in the guest seat on the side.
"Zhu Gongzi and the old body have several faces, although they are not famous, but they are not the first acquaintances, and I hope that the two young heroes will only come to Tangmen as if they are going home, don't be formal, everything is good." As soon as Shen Yuanxue said this, everyone in the Tang Sect was shocked, it is rare for people in the Tang Sect to see the master of the door when they have nothing to do on weekdays, but they don't know when the master of the door will have a relationship with this person named Zhu Wenyu, among them, only Tang Yanxiong, Tang Yun and the four big girls did not see the look of surprise, I think they already knew about it.
"Door master......" Zhu Wenyu clenched his fists again, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Shen Yuanxue. Zhu Gongzi don't be in a hurry, the martial arts meeting will start immediately, and the rest of the matter will be discussed with Zhu Gongzi again after the martial arts meeting. Yun girl, you go to sit with Zhu Gongzi and talk. ”
"Yes, Master." Tang Yun bent his body and replied. Zhu Wenyu knew that the master of the Tang Sect was the mother of the "two-step wind" Tang Yanxiong, Tang Yun's grandmother, and he also felt that Shen Yuanxue loved Tang Yun very much during the chat in the past few days, but at this time, Tang Yun was the master of the door, naturally because the occasion was very formal.
As soon as Zhu Wenyu heard this, he stopped talking and sat down quietly, Tang Yun also walked over without a sound, sitting next to Zhu Wenyu and Nangong Ling, his eyes were looking directly downstairs, his expression remained unchanged, and even the corners of his eyes were not slightly off, as if he had never known Zhu Wenyu and the two, but he came to sit on the orders of the master of the door. Zhu Wenyu also had to press his mind and watch the Tangmen New Year's martial arts meeting in the courtyard below.
The martial arts will be located in a large courtyard in front of the Fengwu Building, the center of the empty courtyard has already set up a wooden platform, less than three feet high, but there are four zhang square, since it is the platform of the martial arts, it is facing the head of the Fengwu Building, the main seat of the Tang Gate, the elders and guests in the door are arranged at the head of the Fengwu Building, just facing the Huiwu Terrace, you can see it clearly, at a glance.
I saw that Shen Yuanxue waved his hand lightly, and a person at the head of the building shouted: "The sixteenth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, the Tang Gate New Year's Martial Arts, start now!" The first battle of fist and foot drills, Tang Shi against Tang Long. ”
With the shout, the two young disciples of the Tang Sect who had not yet taken off their childishness had jumped onto the Huiwu platform, bowed to the group on the Fengwu Tower, and said loudly: "Three generations of disciples Tang Shi, Tang Long, meet the sect master and the elders. After saluting, they stood quietly across the other side, only to hear a drum sound, and the two were already fighting together with their fists and legs.
"These are the two cousins of my fifth uncle and my third uncle's family, Tang Shi is fifteen this year, and Tang Long is only thirteen years old, and now they are all Tang Sect's 'Falling Tiger Fist'." Zhu Wenyu's ears came from Tang Yun's soft and clear voice, Zhu Wenyu was surprised, turned his head slightly, but saw Tang Yun sitting there without moving, looking at the martial platform downstairs without a trace of expression, but his mouth was tightly pursed, obviously closed hard, as if what she said just now was not what she said at all. Zhu Wenyu's heart moved, he didn't dare to look at it anymore, and quickly turned his head, pretending to watch the martial arts competition downstairs, looking back for a moment, he seemed to see a faint smile floating on Nangong Ling's mouth here. Zhu Wenyu glared at Nangong Ling, but Nangong Ling was still looking downstairs unconsciously, but the smile in the corner of his eyes was piled up more.
Zhu Wenyu couldn't take him, so he had to ignore him, still watching the Tang Shi and Tang Long competition downstairs.
That Tang Shi Tang Long was young, after all, his kung fu was still shallow, Tang Shi had a slight upper hand, but it was rare to repel Tang Long for a while, and he had a good meal, and with a gong sound, the two of them jumped back and separated. Qi saluted to the Fengwu Tower.
Tang Yanxiong on the side commented: "Well, Shi'er's Luohu Boxing has improved a lot compared to last year, and his punches are powerful, but the lower plate is a little unstable, and he needs to practice the lower plate more to achieve the realm of flexibility and stability." Long'er, there is still a gap between the Tiger Fist and the Stone, but in the middle there is a mixture of the Hundred Flower Palms, the Tiger Fist is calm, the Hundred Flower Palms are light, the Dragon is young, and it has not yet reached the situation of being able to instantaneously transform. ”
"Thank you Uncle for your advice." Tang Shi and Tang Long said in unison, bowed again, and walked off the stage.
"The second formation of fist and foot drills, Tang Lei against Tang Qishu." Nasri announced in a loud voice.
Next is a number of competitions up and down, it seems that they are arranged in order of age from young to large, Zhu Wenyu and Nangong Ling are both first-class masters, and the competition between those young Tang Sect disciples is just appreciating and watching, but then slowly when the disciples in their twenties compete, they can already see the tricks occasionally, but Zhu Wenyu is gradually fascinated. Tang Yun didn't make some brief introductions on the side, but he still kept his face stiff without a trace of expression, as if he regarded Zhu Wenyu as a stranger, which made Zhu Wenyu more and more uncomfortable, but Nangong Ling next to him didn't seem to notice the movements of Zhu Tang and the others anymore, just looked downstairs, but it didn't look like he was watching the competition downstairs. Zhu Wenyu was curious, and looked at Nangong Ling's gaze, it was almost noon, and he saw a familiar face in the corner of the courtyard below, but it was Tang Yun's maid Tang Li, Zhu Wenyu smiled secretly in his heart, and didn't pay attention to it.
