Hearing Li Mochou say that he wanted to go to Hengyang first, although Xiao Yao and Hong Lingbo were puzzled, they also followed Li Mochou's instructions and reloaded the two carts of treasures looted from the hands of the Iron Mountain Dart Bureau into the carriage and left the mountain platform. (Please search, the novel is better and faster!) Since Xiao Yao came to the Southern Song Dynasty, he has been in the barren mountains and wilderness with Li Mochou's master and apprentice, and he has never had a chance to change his clothes. And Li Mochou was worried about the things he had snatched, and he didn't want to swagger through the market because Xiao Yao's fancy clothes were too eye-catching, so he simply let Xiao Yao hide in a box, and it wasn't until he entered a market that Hong Lingbo bought suitable clothes for him to change into. Xiao Yao sat on the carriage, looking at his Hanfu outfit, very curious and excited for a while.
Along the way, the three of them pawned and sold the jasper statue of Shakyamuni, the Guanyin statue made of pure gold and jade, and other gold beads such as deep-sea blood corals and fist-sized night pearls, and Li Mochou used the silver obtained to buy the precious medicinal materials needed to make the Tongming Qiang Divine Pill, as well as some rare strange blades, protective armor, and specially exchanged a more convenient and better quality sword for Hong Lingbo. But even so, the silver taels spent were only a drop in the bucket of the value of those gold beads. But Li Mochou has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and has already formed her own circle of contacts, and she has deposited all the silver left after selling her things into a money store she is familiar with, so that she can use it when she needs it in the future. As for the exercise cheats in those boxes, the Divine Weapon Blade and other priceless treasures, including the dragon-killing axe, they were all sent back to the Red Refining Mountain Villa by Li Mochou, locked in an underground grotto that was heavily guarded and difficult for outsiders to enter.
After being busy like this for more than half a month, after passing through several states and counties, Li Mochou packed all the ten big boxes. The three of them returned to the Red Refining Villa and rested for two days. One day after lunch, Li Mochou suddenly said, "It's time for us to go to Hengyang too." ”
Hong Lingbo still remembered the face of Master when he mentioned "Hengyang" and "surnamed Ruan" when he was still on the platform of the mountain pass, so he cautiously asked: "Master, what is the origin of the surname Ruan in Hengyang?
Xiao Yao also wondered in his heart, he didn't remember that there was a character surnamed Ruan in Hengyang in the original book who had done anything big, and he could make Li Mochou remember it so much. But I heard Li Mochou say: "The surname Ruan's name is Ruan Jingtian, more than ten years ago, he was the left protector of the Iron Palm Gang, and his status was respected. Back then, he was Qiu Qianren's right-hand man, and he won the trust of the old thief. After Qiu Qianren disappeared and the Iron Palm Gang was disbanded, he returned to his hometown in Hengyang and opened a Tiannan martial arts hall. It's just that Xiao Yao's previous words inspired me. If it is said that the iron palm fist spectrum and the key to water floating light skills, if it is not in the personal collection of Qiu Lao'er, who is hiding in the cave at that moment, there is a good chance that it will be in the hands of this Ruan Jingtian Lao'er. When I go, I will ask where the iron palm and the water drifting book are hidden. ”
Xiao Yao listened to the meaning of Li Mochou's words, and knew that it was completely because of a sentence that she said unintentionally that changed her mind, and also changed the fate of a little person who was not famous in the original time and space, and couldn't help but smack her tongue secretly, thinking that it was fortunate that she hadn't said that Qiu Qianren had escaped into the empty door before, otherwise if it caused any butterfly effect, affected the process of the follow-up history exhibition, and produced any bad effects, then she would be deeply responsible.
Thinking about it, Xiao Yao still followed Li Mochou and Hong Lingbo all the way to Hengyang. Hengyang is located in the south of Hengshan Mountain, because the south of the mountain and the north of the water are "yang", so it gets this name. Li Mochou, Hong Lingbo and Xiao Yao took the Xiangjiang waterway, and by noon on the third day, they had already arrived at Dongyangdu Town.
Dongyangdu Town is only more than 20 kilometers away from Hengyang City. After getting off the boat, Li Mochou bought three green horses in the roadside post, and the three of them rode and galloped, and the horses were whipped along the way, and when they arrived in front of the gate of Hengyang City, it was just after lunchtime, which showed that their master and apprentice were fast. The three of them rode straight into the city, startling the Song soldiers guarding the door hurriedly holding their heads to dodge, and they didn't know how to ask for the crime, Xiao Yao couldn't help but shake his head and sigh for a while, the law and discipline of the Great Song Dynasty were lax, and the military spirit was discouraged. Hong Lingbo grabbed a passer-by casually and asked the specific location of the Ruan's martial arts hall, and then rushed straight over.
The Ruan's Martial Arts Hall is actually not in the center of Hengyang City. According to the instructions of the passer-by, Li Mochou and the three of them found the courtyard with the gold-lettered plaque of "Tiannan Martial Arts Hall" in a relatively quiet alley in the west of the city. The disciples guarding the martial arts hall saw from a distance that three people were coming with swords and horses, and looking at their appearance, they were obviously people from the rivers and lakes, so they hurriedly notified the six inner disciples of the martial arts hall sitting in the gatehouse. Seeing this, the six disciples immediately stepped forward, and the disciple who took the lead said respectfully: "I don't know which way the three of you are friends?
As soon as Li Mochou saw this posture, he naturally understood the little Jiujiu in their hearts. But she didn't take these shrimp soldiers and crabs to heart at all, so she didn't answer, just sneered and asked, "Is Ruan Jingtian here?"
The person who took the lead among the six people heard Li Mochou call the hall owner by his name and surname, and everyone was filled with righteous indignation in their hearts. On this day, the Nanwu Pavilion only accepts some ordinary civilians on weekdays, teaching them some exercises to strengthen their bodies or superficial introductory martial arts, and their actions have nothing to do with the people in the martial arts, and after the owner of the hall retires to the rivers and lakes, he no longer interacts with the people in the martial arts, so as soon as Li Mochou brings Hong Lingbo and Xiao Yao to come, the disciples who guard the door know that the comers are not good. They can also see that the martial arts of these three people must be far away from themselves, although there are six people on their side, which is twice the number of the other party, but I am afraid that if they really make a move, it is estimated that only the hall owner can compete with these three people by himself. Therefore, this is extremely polite in words. I only heard the disciple who took the lead say: "At noon, Boss Huang of Qingyunlou invited the owner of the Ruan Pavilion to a banquet, and the owner of the pavilion went to the banquet, and he has not come back yet. ”
Li Mochou chuckled and said, "Then I'll wait here for him to come back." After speaking, he jumped off his horse and walked straight to the upper seat of the main hall and sat down, but none of the disciples in the hall dared to step forward to stop him.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Yao secretly thought in his heart, if the fight broke out in a while, Li Mochou would be able to clean up this group of people by himself. Although her current martial arts are stronger than these martial arts disciples, after all, two fists are difficult to defeat four hands, not to mention that the hall owner doesn't know what kind of powerful person he is, thinking that he can be a character who protects the Dharma of Qiu Qianren, and his strength will not be too weak.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yao whispered to Hong Lingbo, who was about to lead the horse and go in with Li Mochou: "Lingbo, you go in with the master and wait for the Ruan Pavilion Master to come back, I will lead the horse and wait for you outside." ”
Hong Lingbo heard this, and wanted to say something at first, but as soon as her mind moved, she already understood what Xiao Yao was thinking, thinking that Xiao Yao's martial arts were not only not yet proficient, but also extremely inexperienced in facing the enemy...... Thinking of this, Hong Lingbo didn't dare to think about it anymore, so he said, "Okay, then you wait here, don't move around at will, wait for Master and me...... After we're done with me, we'll come to you. ”
Xiao Yao nodded, and after watching Hong Lingbo enter the Tiannan Martial Arts Hall, he led the horse alone to the other end of the alley and waited. Suddenly, he saw a delicate and slender girl with fluttering eyes walking towards him. The girl seemed to have something in her heart, and at the same time Xiao Yao, who was staring at her, but for some reason, not only did she not scold the "disciple" like ordinary Song Dynasty women, but instead stepped forward and asked generously: "This big brother, do you know where the Tiannan Martial Arts Hall is?"
When Xiao Yao heard that someone was inquiring about the Tiannan Martial Arts Pavilion, his heart was suddenly shocked, and his first reaction was that he thought it was the helper invited by the Ruan Pavilion Master, but after thinking about it, how could such a weak and delicate girl be a helper?
The girl said, "I'm going to apprentice." ”
When Xiao Yao heard this, he said curiously: "Apprenticeship?"
The girl nodded and said, "Yes, it's going to apprentice." That day, the owner of the Nanwu Gym, Ruan Lao Boxing, was originally a close friend of my father, and the two had a very close personal relationship, and I had learned some basic martial arts from him when I was a child, but ......" Speaking of this, the girl suddenly had tears in her eyes and sobbed secretly.
Xiao Yao saw that the girl was crying as she spoke, she didn't know what was going on, she just hurriedly wanted to comfort her, but saw that she had forced herself to hold back her tears and stopped crying. Xiao Yao thought that this was a delicate and weak girl, but she never thought that her heart was so strong, she couldn't help but be stunned, and asked softly, "Dare to ask the girl's name?"
The girl said, "I'm called Yan Ping." ”
