The Battle of Tulang Mountain VI Past grievances

Cao Kui is the current boss of Langwa Village, and he is also the second of the three brothers. After the accident of the owner of the village a year ago, he naturally became the head of the family here. The relationship between their brothers is quite deep, so much so that after the death of the eldest brother, Cao Kui's revenge is extremely strong.

This time he caught Qi Hui, and he naturally wouldn't let them go easily. But yesterday, Xu Yunchao found him and told Yu Feng the truth about wanting to see him. This made Cao Kui's curiosity suddenly aroused, and he agreed to this request.

At noon that day, Cao Kui was drinking tea alone in his room, when suddenly there was a knock on the door, and two of his subordinates walked in and hugged Cao Kui with a fist, "Big brother, Yu Feng is awake, we brought him over." ”

Cao Kui waved his hand and motioned for the two to bring him in. The two exited the room, and when the door opened again, Yu Feng walked in alone.

This room should be considered large in this cave. The room is neatly cleaned up, and it looks like someone is cleaning it often. In the distance, there was a large table with these bamboo rolls stacked on it, and I don't know what they were about. On the other side, there are all kinds of blade magic weapons, which are also mixed with some magic stones. At the top of the center is naturally a bed for resting, and in the center of the room in front of the bed is a large round table. At this time, Cao Kui was sitting here, drinking tea while carefully observing Yu Feng.

After Yu Feng looked around, he walked directly to Cao Kui and pulled a chair and sat down, not treating himself as an outsider at all. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have a cup in front of him, he would have just picked up the cup and poured a cup of tea to drink.

Cao Kui looked at Yu Feng's movements, and smiled slightly, but there was a trace of dissatisfaction and murderous intent in this smile. "The little brother really doesn't regard himself as an outsider, so noisy and dominant, but it makes me, the master, feel a little uncomfortable. ”

Yu Feng completely ignored the meaning of Cao Kui's words, "I first arrived in Guizhai and paid a good visit, but I ate a stick. If you want to talk to the owner of the village, you will also be strictly searched by you. The owner of the village doesn't want to treat me as a guest, so why should I be an outsider. ”

"Good boy, it's all here, and you're still talking so arrogantly, don't you know whose hands your life is in now?" Cao Kui's face changed and he said sharply.

Yu Feng could see that this Cao Kui's temper was not very good, but he still replied flatly: "In the past, I only heard that Langwa Zhai is the first word of righteousness, punishing evil and promoting good, but when I look at it today, I know that it is just a rumor." If you don't understand the way of hospitality, how can you say loyalty. ”

"I don't care who you are, you are here for Hui Hui, in this Langwa Village, you are a sinner. It's not that I don't know how to be hospitable, I just need to distinguish between friend and foe, that's my position. Cao Kui poured another glass of water, "Since you came to me, you must have something to ask, now you can ask." ”

Yu Feng stopped being verbose and went straight to the point, "As far as I know, the Qi family and Langwa Village belong to the same category, and if the two families have a feud, there must be a hidden secret." Can you tell me what happened a year ago?"

Cao Kui had long known that Yu Feng would ask such a question, and he was not surprised. "The matter between us is not a secret, since you have come for Hui Hui, I will tell you this. If you can solve this misunderstanding, we will be fine, and I can apologize to you. If you can't, then you can accompany the old and young of the Qi family to the funeral. Well, is this rule I set fair?"

Yu Feng looked down at the desktop, thought for a while, and then looked at Cao Kui again, and nodded heavily, "Okay, let's just settle it." ”

A year ago, Zhu Hui's father, Zhu Lu, was doing business in the southeast, and at this time he was not doing much business, and the scope of his activities was not as large as it is now, and the Donglu area in the southeast was where he often came and went.

Although his business is not big, his ability is limited, but he often helps others, and he has been active in the Donglu area for a long time, and he is also a well-known good person. said that he was famous because the owner of Langwa Village at that time, Cao Kui and Xu Yunchao's sworn brother Mu Jie also paid attention to him.

At that time, Langwa Village, under the leadership of Mu Jie, acted chivalrous and righteous, only taking ill-gotten wealth and relieving the suffering. Therefore, ordinary merchants, when passing through Tulang Mountain, do not have to worry about anything at all, and the brothers of Langwa Village will not take the liberty of making a move.

Until one day, Mujay received false information that local officials were transporting personal belongings through Tulang Mountain. This property is naturally not a clean thing, but it is exciting good news for everyone, because they had robbed the private transport convoy of an official in Donglu about a month ago, and although there were many guards, the strength was strong, and the casualties on the side were not small, but the harvest was even more surprising. The property obtained at that time alone can support the cost of the entire cottage for at least one and a half years. Because of that incident, the Donglu official sent people to search the mountains to encircle and suppress, which lasted for almost a month before it turned back.

With that experience, everyone is full of anticipation for this action. But when they robbed each other, they found out that this was the caravan of the Qi family, and this information was only later discovered that it was deliberately transmitted by one of Lu Lu's rivals. Fortunately, Lu himself happened to be in this team, otherwise he didn't know that Mu Jie would have hijacked the team and brought a lot of losses to Lu Lu.

Mu Jie had only heard of the person before, but had never seen him, and after someone recognized him, Mu Jie warmly invited him to the cottage as a guest. It was difficult for Lu Lu to refuse, and at the same time, he also admired Mu Jie and the people of Langwa Village, so he had no choice but to accept the invitation and be taken to the cottage. This is also one of the few times since Langwa Village was hidden in the mountains with magic a few years ago, and received outsiders into the village.

Back in the village, Mu Jie introduced Lu to Cao Kui and Xu Yunchao, and set up a banquet that night.

"Master Qi, we hit it off at first sight today, so it's better to stay here for a few more days, so that I can do my best as a landlord. Mujay said to Zolu.

Qi Lu shook his head and refused, "I'm afraid this is not appropriate, we business people are not as free as your brothers, if we delay for a few days and do not do business, then there will be a lot of losses! ”

Mu Jie waved his hand, "My brothers and I are all guilty people in the official mansion, how dare we stay in the territory of their official mansion for a long time? ”

He summoned his attendant and asked him to take his luggage, from which he took out a few paintings and placed them on the table. "Master Mu Zhai, when you go out on this trip, you don't bring anything of value except for a few truckloads of goods. There are several calligraphy and paintings here, all of which were made by famous artists and were given to me by others. I don't know this, I don't know how much these calligraphy and paintings are worth, and it doesn't have any effect to stay in my hands, so I will give them to the owner of the village as a reward for this entertainment!"

Mu Jie pushed these paintings and calligraphy forward, "Mu Mou met with Master Qi today, not for money, these things will naturally not be accepted, please take them back!"

Mu Jie and Qi Lu excused each other here, and this side of the preface Yun Chao became curious, reached out and picked up the painting on the table at random, and opened it to see. The first is a landscape painting, in which the peaks are stacked on top of each other, and the mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist, as if they were the places where immortals lived. There are springs flowing down the mountains, gathering rivers and seas, lifelike.

Cao Kui poked his head over and took a look, and couldn't help but sigh, "It's a good painting, although I don't understand it, but in my eyes, it's beautiful." ”

Xu Yunchao put away this painting and picked up another one and continued to admire. The content on each painting is different, but each one is equally vivid and realistic, making people feel as if they are in the middle of it.

When Xu Yunchao picked up the fifth painting and opened it, he frowned and stared at it for a long time. Cao Kui took a closer look, and saw that the painting was a woman, slim and elegant, beautiful and beautiful, which made people forget it. Just looking at the style of painting, it is completely different from the previous ones, and it is not as good as those paintings.

Xu Yunchao stretched out the painting in front of Lu Lu, "Master Qi, why does this painting look so ordinary, completely different from the others." ”

When Lu Lu looked at this painting, he smiled, "Brother Xu smiled, this is not from the hand of a famous artist, it was a local painter who asked a local painter to paint the little girl before he went out, so naturally it can't be compared with a famous artist." This painting still needs to be left on the body, and you can keep the rest of the paintings. ”

Mu Jie also glanced at this painting and smiled, "Master Qi, Ling Aitianzi is beautiful, and at the same time has the demeanor of everyone, he is really envious of others." This sight, it is considered to be acquainted, and if you are lucky enough to pass by our Langwa Village in the future, you will also be a VIP in our village. ”

Lu also waved his hand and smiled in response. Xu Yunchao re-rolled up this painting, separated it from the others, and then continued to look at the other paintings.

Tonight's wine, several people drank a lot. After the banquet, when the four of them were already drunk and exhausted, Mu Jie instructed the brothers in the village to take Qi Lu back to the room to rest, and the paintings were left on the wine table, including the one by Qi Hui.

The next morning, he woke up late from his drunkenness, and he had forgotten nearly half of what had happened last night, except that Mu Jie had entertained him with a great deal last night. Because his goods were in a hurry to be sent to Luqi Town, and it was not too early now, he didn't stay too long and went directly to Mu Jie to resign. Mu Jie was kind enough to keep him, but it didn't work, so he had to agree.

Due to the complexity of the mountain road, Mu Jie personally escorted Zhu Lu down the mountain, and there were talks, laughs, and conversations along the way. Unknowingly, Mu Jie escorted a team of people and horses to the west gate of Lu Town.

At this time, it was noon, and Mu Jie gave him a kind send-off, how could he let him go back to the cottage like this. Lu persuaded him to leave him in Lu Yan's temporary place to rest and have lunch before returning, but Mu Jie could not refuse, so he had to agree.

There were too many people to enter the town, which could easily arouse the suspicion of others, so Mu Jie only selected a dozen people to accompany him into Lufeng Town, and the rest returned to Langwa Village to report the news. Who thought that Mu Jie would enter Luqi Town this time, and he did not come out again.

In the village, Xu Yunchao and Cao Kui woke up and found that Mu Jie and Qi Lu had left, so they didn't care. They found a few paintings left behind by Lu in the room of yesterday's dinner and put them away. Among them, the portrait of Qi Hui that Lu was supposed to take away was also forgotten here, and Cao Kui was ready to take someone to return it.

At this time, the people who followed Mu Jiemen sent a letter back, saying that Mu Jie and Lu Lu had a small gathering in Luqi Town, and they would return later.

Cao Kui learned where the two went, so he took the portrait of Hui Hui, led some people out of the village, and went to Luqi Town to return the portrait. This time, he witnessed Mu Jie's death in the town of Lufang.
